  Speaker 2: The drive by media has all camped themselves out in
• 2:38
  Speaker 2: Virginia for the latest battle Royale, which is the redistricting

• 2:47
  Speaker 2: the money spent on vote yes to suspend the Constitution
• 2:52
  Speaker 2: has come from elsewhere in the United States. So if
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: you're listening to us in Utah, some of this money
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: is yours. If you're in California, a lot of this

  Speaker 2: wrote in Laurie Chavez Dreamer. Pakistan is preparing for a

  Speaker 2: accept negotiations under the shadow of threats. Meanwhile, Iran's government
• 4:29
  Speaker 2: such that it is, has told the militias that roam

  Speaker 2: Assembly permission to suspend part of Virginia's Constitution, allowing them
• 5:47
  Speaker 2: to redraw the state's eleven congressional districts, and no vote

• 8:32
  Speaker 13: The Mayo Clinic found that kurcumin can decrease swelling and inflammation,
• 8:37
  Speaker 13: has antioxidant properties, and research suggests that kurcumin can prevent
• 8:42
  Speaker 13: cancer or at least slow the spread of cancer, and
• 8:46

  Speaker 15: Hirybody, I'm Jack and it's always a boy. Growing up
• 10:01
  Speaker 15: on a farm in Tennessee, I've been fascinated with animals.
• 10:04
  Speaker 15: I'm not only in awe of their beauty and kindness,
• 10:06
  Speaker 15: but also their tireless work ethic. Just look at the

  Speaker 15: who work hard to provide for their young, or penguins
• 10:15

• 10:21
  Speaker 15: them to navigate the trees and the wild in search
• 10:23
  Speaker 15: of fruit. This remarkable work ethic is shared by our
• 10:26
  Speaker 15: best friends, the canines. We know dogs are wonderful pets
• 10:29
  Speaker 15: at home, but because of their acute senses, they also
• 10:32
  Speaker 15: perform life saving work every day.
• 10:34
  Speaker 2: Dogs keep us safe at airports.
• 10:36
  Speaker 15: They comfort returning veterans, some of whom suffer from PTSS.
• 10:39
  Speaker 15: They work with diabetics, alerting them when there's a change
• 10:42
  Speaker 15: in their blood chemistry. Working dogs have a variety of
• 10:44
  Speaker 15: highly trained roles that contribute to society and help those

  Speaker 17: And now a speech.
• 11:07

  Speaker 1: Putting the radio on is the first thing today.
• 13:18
  Speaker 7: He's in it.
• 13:20
  Speaker 2: And it is manifested. W's ever And I realized this
• 13:27
  Speaker 2: as we were going along, and you know, we've got
• 13:29
  Speaker 2: friends all over the country. Four Corners, Colorado Springs, Beaumont, Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Ohio, Connecticut,
• 13:41
  Speaker 2: and I realized, I'm looking at these fundraising numbers and
• 13:46
  Speaker 2: y'all have given a lot of money to the Vote
• 13:48
  Speaker 2: Yes campaign, or at least people in your state have,
• 13:51
  Speaker 2: because ninety seven percent of the money pouring into this
• 13:54
  Speaker 2: redistricting vote in Virginia have come from other places besides Virginia.
• 13:59
  Speaker 2: I guess that should tell you all you need to
• 14:02
  Speaker 2: know about that. You can read my column about it
• 14:05
  Speaker 2: at Daily Signal dot com this morning. There's actually a
• 14:09
  Speaker 2: couple of them. If you go to my Facebook page
• 14:11
  Speaker 2: Seaville Joe Thomas, there's a link to a couple of
• 14:15
  Speaker 2: exalient articles about this election that's going on. And then
• 14:19
  Speaker 2: Virginia stops being in the spotlight until the next time
• 14:22
  Speaker 2: we light ourselves on fire in the town square, joining
• 14:26
  Speaker 2: us directly from the halls of the US House of Representatives.
• 14:31
  Speaker 2: He is a Congressman, John McGuire, a man who has
• 14:34
  Speaker 2: no idea what his district's going to look like come tomorrow,
• 14:38
  Speaker 2: but he does know what he's working on today. Good morning, John,
• 14:41
  Speaker 2: How are you doing, sir?
• 14:44
  Speaker 19: Hey, Good morning Joe. Thanks for getting the word out.
• 14:46
  Speaker 19: We really really need everyone to get out the boat.
• 14:49
  Speaker 11: Know today.
• 14:50
  Speaker 19: Where Virginia goes, so goes the nation. This is an illegal,
• 14:55
  Speaker 19: unconstitutional power grab. Virginia has the one hundred score for
• 15:01
  Speaker 19: the most fair maps in the country. We vote fifty
• 15:03
  Speaker 19: to fifty, so we have six Democrat Congressmen, five Republican.
• 15:08
  Speaker 19: If they succeed today, they'll have ten Democrats one Republican.
• 15:14
  Speaker 19: And I think you said it well. Have you seen
• 15:16
  Speaker 19: that TV commercial that has a house on fire. Firefighters
• 15:20
  Speaker 19: are trying to put it out, and Spanberg is pouring
• 15:22
  Speaker 19: gasoline on it. That's what she's doing to Virginia right now.
• 15:26
  Speaker 19: And why give her more power? And why give Democrats
• 15:29
  Speaker 19: set to more power at the national level. They'll just
• 15:32
  Speaker 19: reopen the border, They'll bring in those cartels that are
• 15:35
  Speaker 19: robin raping and killing the American people. They'll take away
• 15:39
  Speaker 19: more gun rights, raise your taxes. We can put a
• 15:42
  Speaker 19: stop to it right now. Vote no today in Virginia.
• 15:46
  Speaker 2: It's amazing to me and I wrote the piece I
• 15:48
  Speaker 2: wrote in the Daily Signal, John chronicles to the fact
• 15:51
  Speaker 2: that it's three to one the amount of money that
• 15:54
  Speaker 2: has come in. It's all from out of state, and
• 15:57
  Speaker 2: even the most left wing observers like Larry Sabado at
• 16:02
  Speaker 2: the University of Virginia said it's going to be really,
• 16:05
  Speaker 2: really close. So they spent four times as much money
• 16:09
  Speaker 2: and just to get just to get a little close.
• 16:12
  Speaker 2: I mean, that's how unpopular this idea is with Virginians.
• 16:18
  Speaker 2: And I think that on a grassroots level, with very
• 16:24
  Speaker 2: little money, a bigger message can be learned here is
• 16:28
  Speaker 2: that its money doesn't equal power in the United States.
• 16:32
  Speaker 19: Is that unfair to say, Well, golly, I think they
• 16:36
  Speaker 19: spent about one hundred million dollars. We spent about twenty
• 16:39
  Speaker 19: two million dollars and it's still a toss up close race.
• 16:43
  Speaker 19: And it's because there's so full of laws and deceptions.
• 16:46
  Speaker 19: Number One, they keep saying that they're doing this because
• 16:48
  Speaker 19: of Texas. But we all know it started in New
• 16:51
  Speaker 19: York in twenty twenty two, and about three weeks ago
• 16:54
  Speaker 19: the Supreme Court threw it out when they tried to
• 16:56
  Speaker 19: get rid of three Republican seats in New York, and
• 16:59
  Speaker 19: then California did it in other states, and Indiana said,
• 17:02
  Speaker 19: we're not going to do it. But you know, we're
• 17:04
  Speaker 19: not taxes. We're not in New York. We're not California.
• 17:07
  Speaker 19: We have a different constitution. And they've gone so far
• 17:10
  Speaker 19: as to put billboards up with President Trump saying to
• 17:13
  Speaker 19: vote yes, and in the fine print.
• 17:16
  Speaker 11: Paid for by the Democrat Party. They're lions who has.
• 17:18
  Speaker 19: Left and right, just like Spamburger lot when she said
• 17:21
  Speaker 19: she was running on affordability, and then the first thing
• 17:24
  Speaker 19: she did was they offered fifty new taxes walking your
• 17:28
  Speaker 19: dog uber uber each gym, memberships, everything else.
• 17:32
  Speaker 2: Hey, here's an idea, America. Here's an idea, John. If
• 17:35
  Speaker 2: Governor Spamberger wants to be affordable, she could suspend Virginia's
• 17:39
  Speaker 2: gasoline tax until the price of gasoline starts coming down.
• 17:42
  Speaker 2: What do you think about that?
• 17:45
  Speaker 11: Yeah, well, good luck reason with her.
• 17:47
  Speaker 19: She voted them, and she voted a three. She gave
• 17:50
  Speaker 19: them a three hundred percent pay raise and raise our taxes.
• 17:53
  Speaker 19: So she did run on affordability, just not for we
• 17:55
  Speaker 19: the people, but for them.
• 17:57
  Speaker 2: So as you're and I know that if you don't
• 18:01
  Speaker 2: know John McGuire, he was on actually if you go
• 18:04
  Speaker 2: to Newsmax, he was on their morning show yesterday and
• 18:08
  Speaker 2: a good spot for you there. He loves to campaign
• 18:11
  Speaker 2: on the street corner. This is This is a guy
• 18:14
  Speaker 2: that you'll see with a sign on the corner of
• 18:17
  Speaker 2: you know, interstate and State highway somewhere waving a sign
• 18:22
  Speaker 2: at some point. You know, if you ever run for president,
• 18:24
  Speaker 2: that's a lot of street corners you're going to have
• 18:26
  Speaker 2: to do that on John, But where are you this
• 18:28
  Speaker 2: morning waving your signs?
• 18:31
  Speaker 1: Well?
• 18:31
  Speaker 11: Yeah, as funny as the Navy seals. We say there's
• 18:33
  Speaker 11: no such thing as bad weather, just bad year. But
• 18:36
  Speaker 11: I had a woman I made her laugh. She came
• 18:38
  Speaker 11: up to me. She said, how can you wave the
• 18:40
  Speaker 11: cars in the rain? I said, Navy seals will waterproof?
• 18:44
  Speaker 11: But people say, whyney work so hard? Jump it?
• 18:48
  Speaker 19: If you thought you were losing your country, how hard
• 18:50
  Speaker 19: would you fight? So we got at five am. I
• 18:53
  Speaker 19: did Fox and Friends, live hit on TV this morning.
• 18:56
  Speaker 19: We've been on w L and I. We've been on
• 18:58
  Speaker 19: John Fredericks, We've been on Charlottesville TV. Now I'm on
• 19:01
  Speaker 19: the famous Joe Thomas Show. We're just trying to get
• 19:04
  Speaker 19: out the vote. No, this is a fifty to fifty thing.
• 19:08
  Speaker 19: I mean it's a really tight race. I really think
• 19:10
  Speaker 19: we can win, but the turnout matters.
• 19:12
  Speaker 2: We got yes call it.
• 19:14
  Speaker 11: Polls close at seven pm.
• 19:17
  Speaker 19: And if you don't know where to where to vote,
• 19:19
  Speaker 19: you can go to the Virginia Department of Elections website,
• 19:23
  Speaker 19: enter your address and then it'll take exactly where to
• 19:26
  Speaker 19: go vote till seven pm.
• 19:28
  Speaker 2: Most places it's your usual polling place for November elections.
• 19:31
  Speaker 2: I know Harrisonburg has three polling places that they couldn't
• 19:36
  Speaker 2: use because of the springtime and is they are not
• 19:39
  Speaker 2: available at city Hall and one of the golf courses
• 19:42
  Speaker 2: is now serving as a polling place. But if you
• 19:45
  Speaker 2: go to this Harrisonburg City Registrar, it will tell you
• 19:50
  Speaker 2: that John, what about you know? And and I'm all
• 19:54
  Speaker 2: about you know, just let's get out the no vote.
• 19:57
  Speaker 2: And I even said, you know, Maryland's Maryland State Senate
• 20:02
  Speaker 2: voted no themselves two to one majority of Democrats and
• 20:09
  Speaker 2: Governor Moore wanted redistricting and they wouldn't do it. You know,
• 20:13
  Speaker 2: what does Maryland know that Virginia's Democrats don't know?
• 20:18
  Speaker 19: I don't know, but I think that it's common sense
• 20:21
  Speaker 19: that voters should choose who represents them instead of some
• 20:26
  Speaker 19: politician in northern Virginia never.
• 20:28
  Speaker 11: Going to meet.
• 20:29
  Speaker 19: So if the yes people are doing yes or giving
• 20:32
  Speaker 19: away their voice, and and they're doing it, there's a
• 20:36
  Speaker 19: lot of deception. I mean, you look at the ballot
• 20:38
  Speaker 19: question that should be illegal right there, yes vote.
• 20:42
  Speaker 11: Yeah, it's just they're just line cheating.
• 20:44
  Speaker 2: Well, and and you know, it's interesting to me because
• 20:47
  Speaker 2: the Democrats in Florida are trying to sue Governor de
• 20:50
  Speaker 2: Santis to keep him from doing this uh redistricting there,
• 20:55
  Speaker 2: Yet they're they're doing the exact thing that Governor DeSantis
• 20:59
  Speaker 2: is doing in Florida. Up here in Virginia is is Democrat?
• 21:03
  Speaker 2: You know, have they have they gotten psychotic? Have they
• 21:06
  Speaker 2: had some sort of mental break where it's okay in
• 21:10
  Speaker 2: Virginia to do stuff like this but not okay in Florida.
• 21:14
  Speaker 19: Well, you asked the question, have they gone psychotic? Anybody
• 21:18
  Speaker 19: who wants to put a boy in a girl's bathroom
• 21:20
  Speaker 19: is psychotic. Anybody who wants to put rapist, dangerous crimels
• 21:25
  Speaker 19: back on the streets is psychotic. Anyone who wants open
• 21:29
  Speaker 19: borders bring in fifteen twenty million people that are committing
• 21:34
  Speaker 19: crime and overwhelming our resources is psychotic.
• 21:37
  Speaker 11: So yeah, I think they are.
• 21:39
  Speaker 2: But we get out to vote.
• 21:42
  Speaker 11: We got to get the vote.
• 21:43
  Speaker 2: No, yeah, John, thank you so much for your time.
• 21:46
  Speaker 2: Get out there and wave it more cars. I presume
• 21:48
  Speaker 2: your sign says no on the top of it, but

  Speaker 5: Let's see if something costs less but people are happier
• 22:05
  Speaker 5: with it, that sounds like something to look into, and
• 22:07
  Speaker 5: that is meta share. Maybe you've heard switching to meta
• 22:10
  Speaker 5: share to pay for healthcare can save many families up
• 22:13
  Speaker 5: to five hundred bucks a month, and that is huge.
• 22:15
  Speaker 5: But it's also true that people are way more satisfied
• 22:18
  Speaker 5: after making the switch too. The members satisfaction rate for
• 22:21
  Speaker 5: meta share is double that of the typical health insurance plan.
• 22:25
  Speaker 7: Double.
• 22:25
  Speaker 5: Meta share works too. It's been around for thirty years,
• 22:28
  Speaker 5: members have shared more than five billion dollars of each
• 22:31
  Speaker 5: other's bills. People love having telehealth and a huge nationwide
• 22:34
  Speaker 5: PPO network. So yeah, really you can save a ton

• 24:32
  Speaker 13: Clinic found that kurcumin can decrease swelling and inflammation, has
• 24:37
  Speaker 13: antioxidant properties, and research suggests that kurcumin can prevent cancer
• 24:43
  Speaker 13: or at least slow the spread of cancer, and in

• 29:02
  Speaker 2: is insurrectionist Bob. There so it's pharmacist Bob. It's Moscow
• 29:06
  Speaker 2: Bob is insurrectionist, you know, living in Moscow, being an
• 29:11
  Speaker 2: insurrectionist might not be very safe for you.
• 29:13
  Speaker 21: Bob.
• 29:13
  Speaker 2: How are you doing this morning?
• 29:16
  Speaker 21: Hey, doing pretty good. The aren't reason, I mean, the
• 29:19
  Speaker 21: insurrectionist comment is based on your comment last week. But
• 29:25
  Speaker 21: the issue is is, like what doctor Clark was talking about,
• 29:29
  Speaker 21: even what you're talking about with a former congressman, the
• 29:32
  Speaker 21: majority of money for all elections in all these states,
• 29:37
  Speaker 21: the majority that comes from out of state.
• 29:40
  Speaker 2: Yeah, we know that, you know that, but you've got
• 29:43
  Speaker 2: to come up with a way to deal with that money.
• 29:45
  Speaker 2: And I know it's a hot topic with you know,
• 29:48
  Speaker 2: both sides, is how do you deal with, you know,
• 29:51
  Speaker 2: how the money that comes in? And I think personally,
• 29:55
  Speaker 2: you know, if we got rid of the nineteen twenty
• 29:58
  Speaker 2: nine Act and we grew Congress and each each seat
• 30:02
  Speaker 2: became less powerful, then we'd see some of this money
• 30:06
  Speaker 2: go away. But anyway you go.
• 30:07
  Speaker 21: Ahead or limited to how some other countries in Europe
• 30:12
  Speaker 21: do it where you're only allowed to advertise and you know,
• 30:16
  Speaker 21: on TV or anything else for two months before the election.
• 30:20
  Speaker 2: There is something to that. I know a lot of
• 30:22
  Speaker 2: there are some states that have restrictions on that. Varying
• 30:27
  Speaker 2: states have different windows on when stations have but you know,
• 30:31
  Speaker 2: that's when you get these issue organizations where it's not
• 30:36
  Speaker 2: and a referendum like this, Bob, it's just rife for
• 30:39
  Speaker 2: that because there is no political party involved. It's all
• 30:43
  Speaker 2: issue organizations. It's you know, the Southeast Liberal Democrats for
• 30:49
  Speaker 2: Free Speech pack, you know, has all of a sudden
• 30:54
  Speaker 2: got through Act Blue eighteen million dollars and you're like, well,
• 30:58
  Speaker 2: where did that come from. Oh, it came from Act Blue.
• 31:01
  Speaker 2: So somebody contributed it to Act Blue and they laundered
• 31:04
  Speaker 2: it and sent it on to you. And this is
• 31:06
  Speaker 2: the stuff that I think makes people mad.
• 31:10
  Speaker 21: And that's why I think we need to get rid
• 31:12
  Speaker 21: of five oh one seats because five on one seats
• 31:14
  Speaker 21: are no longer what they were intended to be. But
• 31:18
  Speaker 21: changing the subject a little bit, the insurrection issue is
• 31:22
  Speaker 21: I believe what doctor Clark said. If you look at
• 31:25
  Speaker 21: the Pledge of Allegiance, I believe in one nation under God,
• 31:30
  Speaker 21: indivisible with liberty and justice for all. That's the big word,
• 31:35
  Speaker 21: justice for all. We do not have equal justice in
• 31:39
  Speaker 21: the United States. It's normal for any type of government
• 31:46
  Speaker 21: or civilization. Going way back to the beginning of civilization,
• 31:49
  Speaker 21: there's never been equal justice that's the issue right now
• 31:52
  Speaker 21: in the United States, and the Democrats with the erroric
• 31:56
  Speaker 21: Solvell thing, they're using it to their advantage. Now they're
• 32:01
  Speaker 21: going after every Republican in any office, especially in Congress,
• 32:07
  Speaker 21: like what Nansky Mace is doing against Corey Miles or
• 32:10
  Speaker 21: whatever you gin Mills.
• 32:11
  Speaker 2: Yeah, well, but then they're going after the girl from
• 32:14
  Speaker 2: Miami who who stole COVID money. And it sounds like
• 32:21
  Speaker 2: what they're trying to do is like, Okay, we're going
• 32:23
  Speaker 2: to whack one of your guys, you whack one of
• 32:25
  Speaker 2: our guys. And they're going to do this, and they're
• 32:28
  Speaker 2: going to go through Congress, you know, the oxymoronically named
• 32:33
  Speaker 2: Ethics Committee.
• 32:36
  Speaker 21: Yes, but what they're trying to do is subjugate the issue.
• 32:41
  Speaker 21: If they can take the mid terms, you want any
• 32:46
  Speaker 21: Republican congressman, senator, anyone in the advisors to President and Trump,
• 32:54
  Speaker 21: anyone in the official above offices are now going to
• 32:58
  Speaker 21: be forced.
• 32:59
  Speaker 2: By Congress out well, and they're going to use that's.
• 33:03
  Speaker 21: How that's how they're going to get more control. They're
• 33:06
  Speaker 21: going to get rid of those that they want out
• 33:09
  Speaker 21: against their party, which internal make them stronger.
• 33:13
  Speaker 2: And I think they're going to use as their premise
• 33:16
  Speaker 2: January six, because they when they come back and they
• 33:19
  Speaker 2: start going after h. Trump, They're going to need a
• 33:22
  Speaker 2: full crumb uh there, and I think j six is
• 33:25
  Speaker 2: going to be uh that that uh foothold if you will,
• 33:31
  Speaker 2: all right, well you have a great morning, Bob, or
• 33:33
  Speaker 2: a great afternoon there in Glasgow out on the shores
• 33:37
  Speaker 2: of the Moskva uh this morning, you know, and and
• 33:40
  Speaker 2: the said thing, you know, Joel, as you were saying,
• 33:43
  Speaker 2: you know this this is in a lot of ways
• 33:46
  Speaker 2: being brought on by the Republicans, right, we have.
• 33:50
  Speaker 22: The Republicans are responsible for how the race turned out
• 33:56
  Speaker 22: in Virginia because you have a lot of mouthpieces. I
• 34:00
  Speaker 22: mean Glenn Youngkin, Governor Youngkin wouldn't even talk to you
• 34:03
  Speaker 22: on your program and and he and he and he
• 34:06
  Speaker 22: basically separated himself from you. Now I know he wasn't
• 34:10
  Speaker 22: running for the race again, but he he could be
• 34:13
  Speaker 22: more politically supportively, you know, to.
• 34:15
  Speaker 2: Be to be fair, A lot of these folks, you know,
• 34:18
  Speaker 2: they look at it and it's about you know, they
• 34:20
  Speaker 2: they target their time.
• 34:22
  Speaker 23: Uh.
• 34:22
  Speaker 2: They still think TV is where everyone is. I don't
• 34:26
  Speaker 2: know why, but but you know, he was sitting on
• 34:29
  Speaker 2: the sidelines until the last few weeks. And God bless
• 34:31
  Speaker 2: him for getting into this redistricting battle. Uh too. And uh,
• 34:37
  Speaker 2: you know, at the end of the day, it's on
• 34:40
  Speaker 2: each individual candidate to make their cases. But yes, you're right,
• 34:44
  Speaker 2: a lot of folks in Virginia say the Republicans mailed
• 34:48
  Speaker 2: in the gubernatorial race because they didn't. They they just
• 34:52
  Speaker 2: expected Abigail Spenberger to be just the way it always is.
• 34:56
  Speaker 2: You know, we always lose when a Republican wins the
• 34:59
  Speaker 2: White House, we always lose the next race. Well, this
• 35:02
  Speaker 2: is a different kind of Democrat.
• 35:05
  Speaker 22: And and and Joe, I'm sorry. You know, I lived
• 35:10
  Speaker 22: in Charlottsville for almost five years and I saw a
• 35:14
  Speaker 22: lot of things that were going on that I go,
• 35:17
  Speaker 22: you know, and a lot of it was during COVID.
• 35:20
  Speaker 22: But but the mental no, but the mentality of the
• 35:24
  Speaker 22: mentality of Washington sits in northern Virginia. And then and
• 35:28
  Speaker 22: then you have people and then you have people within
• 35:31
  Speaker 22: UVA and other institutions that just that just push out
• 35:36
  Speaker 22: the pablem to the to the younger crowd, and then
• 35:39
  Speaker 22: the older crowd doesn't do anything. They just expect everything
• 35:42
  Speaker 22: to be done for them.
• 35:43
  Speaker 2: Now, well, it's it's even worse than that, because functionaries,
• 35:47
  Speaker 2: you know, u v A, and and and George Mason
• 35:50
  Speaker 2: University sadly all carrying the names of these exquisite founding fathers,
• 35:57
  Speaker 2: they they've become they've become endorsement machines. So you know,
• 36:02
  Speaker 2: if I want to say something, I want to create
• 36:04
  Speaker 2: some policy, I go get some professor at UVA or
• 36:09
  Speaker 2: VCU or Berkeley or Harvard whatever to say, yeah, I
• 36:14
  Speaker 2: think that's a really great idea, and then we use
• 36:17
  Speaker 2: that as the endorsement to sell the idea to the constituency.
• 36:22
  Speaker 2: And it's a it's debased science, and it's not new.
• 36:26
  Speaker 2: Eisenhower warned about it years ago, but on a more
• 36:28
  Speaker 2: mercantile basis even then that government was going to run science,
• 36:33
  Speaker 2: government was going to run academia, and therefore, you know,
• 36:37
  Speaker 2: it's scientism. You know, here's the answer I want to get.
• 36:41
  Speaker 2: Go find me a question that gets us here. And
• 36:44
  Speaker 2: and that's you know what you're seeing in this Virginia election.
• 36:48
  Speaker 2: That's what you're seeing in all of the redistricting fights,
• 36:51
  Speaker 2: is this idea that we can you know, fix the
• 36:54
  Speaker 2: system and make it, you know, beneficial to us, and
• 36:59
  Speaker 2: that's all we care about, rather than whether there's any
• 37:02
  Speaker 2: rule of law going on there. And that was my
• 37:04
  Speaker 2: original point is if you suspend rule of law, then
• 37:07
  Speaker 2: you you know that what's left for you. So that's
• 37:11
  Speaker 2: going to be the upstart question, is you know, is
• 37:14
  Speaker 2: there ever going to be rule of law? Because when
• 37:17
  Speaker 2: you start talking about adjudicating fairness, what is that? Because
• 37:23
  Speaker 2: you invent what you believe to be fair. This was
• 37:26
  Speaker 2: one of the things that made the United States unique
• 37:29
  Speaker 2: was that you were the arbiter of what your outcomes
• 37:33
  Speaker 2: would fairly be, not someone else. And that's it. Here
• 37:38
  Speaker 2: it's a great here's a text message. Today is a
• 37:41
  Speaker 2: perfect example of why the founders chose a representative republic
• 37:45
  Speaker 2: instead of a pure democracy. Pure democracies always fail, exactly.
• 37:51
  Speaker 2: It's because it becomes the tyranny of the minority. Twenty
• 37:56
  Speaker 2: percent organized can be one hundred percent if they turn out.

  Speaker 16: nonprofit organization focused on heart and brain health. Heart disease
• 38:12
  Speaker 16: still kills more people in the United States each year
• 38:14
  Speaker 16: than all types of cancer combined, but more than half
• 38:17
  Speaker 16: of Americans are unaware of this fact, according to a
• 38:20
  Speaker 16: recent Harris Pole survey conducted for the American Heart Association. However,
• 38:25
  Speaker 16: the majority of heart disease is preventable. New research has
• 38:28
  Speaker 16: improved the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of heart disease and
• 38:32
  Speaker 16: its risk factors. Efforts led by the American Heart Association
• 38:35
  Speaker 16: have reduced deaths from heart disease by half over the
• 38:38
  Speaker 16: past century and helped people with heart disease live longer
• 38:41
  Speaker 16: and more productive lives while managing their condition and risk factors.

  Speaker 1: Chalk Radio Just the way your mother used to make it.
• 44:14
  Speaker 1: First thing Today by Joe Thomas on the Chalk Median Editor.
• 44:31
  Speaker 2: So they're trying to do that. They're trying to emasculate
• 44:33
  Speaker 2: po dunk. You don't matter your flyover country. This is
• 44:37
  Speaker 2: part of the National Popular Vote Compact. This is part
• 44:42
  Speaker 2: of the redistricting in Virginia. This is about the special
• 44:46
  Speaker 2: people getting to run the country. This is one hundred
• 44:51
  Speaker 2: years later the culmination of the Technocrat movement. We're approaching
• 44:55
  Speaker 2: the one hundredth anniversary of the Permanent Reapportionment Act, which
• 44:59
  Speaker 2: affect actively neutered we the people and created this frozen
• 45:07
  Speaker 2: oligarchy of congress people and put us in this position
• 45:12
  Speaker 2: of having to debate redistricting text message here, what do
• 45:15
  Speaker 2: you mean Jefferson's war in Iran? Thomas Jefferson said in
• 45:20
  Speaker 2: seventeen eighty six after meeting the leader of the of
• 45:25
  Speaker 2: the Barbary Pirates, we may need to end this with
• 45:28
  Speaker 2: a war. Tom Garrett seen a little of this, and
• 45:31
  Speaker 2: he's in the fray on this redistricting battle. And that's
• 45:35
  Speaker 2: the key thing, isn't it, Tom, being in the fray
• 45:38
  Speaker 2: in the battle.
• 45:40
  Speaker 25: So let them do what they're going to do. But
• 45:42
  Speaker 25: we have a duty not to necessarily win, but to
• 45:44
  Speaker 25: stand in the fight. So that's what we've been doing.
• 45:47
  Speaker 2: Here's the thing. I mean, you know, and it's not
• 45:49
  Speaker 2: a matter of when it's stopped the loss, because when
• 45:53
  Speaker 2: you've done this, when you've created this scenario of convenience,
• 45:58
  Speaker 2: where does it end? I mean? You we know that
• 46:01
  Speaker 2: American government runs on precedent, doesn't it, Tom? I mean, so,
• 46:05
  Speaker 2: so as soon as we've established that we can do this,
• 46:09
  Speaker 2: what's the next thing that will absolutely existentially have to
• 46:13
  Speaker 2: be stood up against and restore fairness?
• 46:16
  Speaker 25: Will Will it be of course course temporarily right right
• 46:20
  Speaker 25: steel your voice will steal your voice temporarily so that
• 46:24
  Speaker 25: it's fair. I mean, this is draconian, but I.
• 46:27
  Speaker 2: Mean, is it? Is it more lockdowns? Is it now.
• 46:30
  Speaker 25: Probably your Second Amendment rights?
• 46:33
  Speaker 21: I mean.
• 46:35
  Speaker 2: Yeah, temporarily right, it's you'll give you your gun? Fat yeah,
• 46:43
  Speaker 2: I'm dead. You know well, but you know well, we
• 46:46
  Speaker 2: know once you prove to us that you're not going
• 46:48
  Speaker 2: to be unfair to somebody, and then and then we'll
• 46:51
  Speaker 2: let you have it on the conditions that we've checked
• 46:54
  Speaker 2: you out first. And this is authoritarianism. One o one,
• 46:58
  Speaker 2: So how has it been?
• 47:00
  Speaker 25: And we missed the point that we're not bestowed the
• 47:02
  Speaker 25: right stated self defense or to speak, or to share
• 47:06
  Speaker 25: opinions or to assemble, not bestowed that right by government,
• 47:08
  Speaker 25: but instead government is tasked with protecting that right, and
• 47:11
  Speaker 25: that the Bill of Rights is generally limitations on the
• 47:14
  Speaker 25: ability of government. Do you serve from us that which
• 47:17
  Speaker 25: God gave us?
• 47:17
  Speaker 21: Right?
• 47:18
  Speaker 25: So we've got a bunch of people who've written God
• 47:20
  Speaker 25: out of everything so that they don't have to be
• 47:22
  Speaker 25: accountable for the decisions that deep down inside they know
• 47:24
  Speaker 25: are wrong. And so when man is the ultimate authority,
• 47:28
  Speaker 25: and man makes tolerance his highest virtue, oh whatever, they
• 47:32
  Speaker 25: want to do.
• 47:33
  Speaker 2: When we know what's right and what's.
• 47:35
  Speaker 25: Wrong, right, we're gonnaver saw it temporarily, you know, I
• 47:39
  Speaker 25: mean affair never have imagined what we never could have
• 47:44
  Speaker 25: imagined ten years ago that this could happen in America.
• 47:46
  Speaker 2: Well, it is because we permit it, because we feel like, oh,
• 47:49
  Speaker 2: I have no you know, it's not fair. And I
• 47:52
  Speaker 2: think some of the gas lighting that's gone on in
• 47:54
  Speaker 2: the United States is intentionally there to make the average
• 47:59
  Speaker 2: America and say, I really shouldn't have a say on
• 48:01
  Speaker 2: this because there are people who are worse off than me.
• 48:04
  Speaker 2: Fifty percent of the population of the United States, tom
• 48:08
  Speaker 2: contributes three percent of the tax collections. That's a poverty.
• 48:14
  Speaker 21: Share, right.
• 48:15
  Speaker 2: Well, but I mean that creates that scenario of saying, okay, well,
• 48:19
  Speaker 2: this fifty percent of the population has now become a
• 48:22
  Speaker 2: permanent underclass that needs assistance from some government or another
• 48:29
  Speaker 2: to pay the bills of their day. And that has
• 48:32
  Speaker 2: what created this world of fairness of equity. You know,
• 48:38
  Speaker 2: somebody is poor and therefore they need your help to
• 48:41
  Speaker 2: get by in the day. And that's why I worry
• 48:44
  Speaker 2: that people aren't going to turn out to vote because
• 48:47
  Speaker 2: they don't want to be seen as harming someone, or
• 48:50
  Speaker 2: they don't like Donald Trump's two am tweets, or they
• 48:53
  Speaker 2: wish he hadn't said, Hey, if you're going to read
• 48:56
  Speaker 2: district in Texas, peel me off a couple extra congress people.
• 49:00
  Speaker 2: They they love the policies, They love the fact that
• 49:03
  Speaker 2: he's finally doing what Thomas Jefferson said we needed to
• 49:06
  Speaker 2: do with the Barbary pirates and that's end this with
• 49:09
  Speaker 2: a war. But they don't like who's doing it. And
• 49:14
  Speaker 2: I don't know who they're not supposed to.
• 49:17
  Speaker 25: They've been told they're not supposed to, right, And we
• 49:19
  Speaker 25: don't have the courage to tell the truth as boldly
• 49:21
  Speaker 25: as the other side lies.
• 49:22
  Speaker 2: So that's what I'm spaking for yourself, that's what we're doing.
• 49:25
  Speaker 25: Well, okay, to be fair, right, and and so you're
• 49:28
  Speaker 25: and so we have an event at the Weston Hotel
• 49:30
  Speaker 25: in Richmond, Virginia. Get in your car, go to Delegate
• 49:33
  Speaker 25: Tom Garrett on Facebook and support this sort of free
• 49:35
  Speaker 25: speech and advocacy for the foundations upon which America was built.
• 49:39
  Speaker 25: But that's the whole thing here, right, We shouldn't be
• 49:43
  Speaker 25: surprised when we lose the argument, when we're not willing
• 49:45
  Speaker 25: to engage in the argument, and the other side will
• 49:47
  Speaker 25: lie boldly, and yet we will oftentimes not tell the
• 49:51
  Speaker 25: truth timidly. And I think the reason Trump has been
• 49:53
  Speaker 25: so vilified is he I think sometimes ham handedly, absolutely
• 49:57
  Speaker 25: positively says things which are true, but which we've been
• 50:00
  Speaker 25: told not to say, that we need to be tolerant.
• 50:02
  Speaker 25: Let me say something unequivocally. Western civilization is superior, superior
• 50:08
  Speaker 25: to any other civilization currently existing. And I would argue
• 50:12
  Speaker 25: in the history of humanity because it's provided not the
• 50:15
  Speaker 25: equality of outcomes, right, that's impossible, that happens in the
• 50:19
  Speaker 25: next world, in heaven perhaps, but the equality of opportunity
• 50:25
  Speaker 25: to affords someone like Oprah Winfrey to come from nothing
• 50:28
  Speaker 25: to becoming a self made billionaire. That can't happen anywhere
• 50:31
  Speaker 25: else on earth. And yet, if you look at the
• 50:34
  Speaker 25: oppressed versus oppress or paradigms that the Left tries to
• 50:37
  Speaker 25: foist on our children, starting in kindergarten and then going
• 50:40
  Speaker 25: all the way up through postgraduate degrees, the idea is
• 50:43
  Speaker 25: that she can't succeed, which ultimately gets to the most
• 50:47
  Speaker 25: articulate thing that George W. Bush ever said, the soft
• 50:49
  Speaker 25: bigotry of low expectations. Yes, people in any community, young
• 50:54
  Speaker 25: people in any community have the same hopes, dreams, and
• 50:57
  Speaker 25: goals until our educational industrial complex beats them out of
• 51:01
  Speaker 25: them by creating permanent underclasses, by telling them that they
• 51:05
  Speaker 25: can't succeed the cause. Oh my gosh, it makes me
• 51:08
  Speaker 25: so angry. Well, and that's why we got to find
• 51:11
  Speaker 25: up against that.
• 51:11
  Speaker 2: So we have an event tonight. Actually, we are going
• 51:14
  Speaker 2: to be broadcasting this program from inside the Virginia General
• 51:17
  Speaker 2: Assembly tomorrow as we bask in what hopefully is the
• 51:20
  Speaker 2: afterglow of a surprise victory overwhelming odds not seen in
• 51:24
  Speaker 2: Virginia since cornwallis left Yorktown on a boat. So I
• 51:30
  Speaker 2: appreciate that we'll have all of this coming up for
• 51:33
  Speaker 2: you and more Tom, thank you sir, on a Facebook live.
• 51:36
