0:47
Speaker 1: Board of Peace in in Gaza, right after announcing that
0:59
Speaker 1: NATAH was going to be handling Greenland, not the United States.

1:11
Speaker 8: As it retains the security and minerals and everything else.
1:15
Speaker 9: Brett Bear spoke to NATO chief Mark Root.
1:21
Speaker 1: And this started yesterday afternoon. When Mark Root, NATO secretary,
1:27
Speaker 1: said no, we're fine with everything Trump's doing on Greenland.
1:33
Speaker 1: People said, wait what now? And most people didn't hear
1:36
Speaker 1: it because people were too busy saying.
1:38
Speaker 7: You know, Paul says, Donald Trump's approval writing is at
1:41
Speaker 7: an all time low.
1:44
Speaker 1: That's what the news headline was while Mark Root was
1:47
Speaker 1: in Davo saying, yeah, yeah, we gotta deal with Greenland.
1:53
Speaker 1: I don't know what you all are going on about.
2:01
Speaker 1: And then as it unfolded, it became clear that this
2:08
Speaker 1: was just as I predicted, like a World Wrestling Federation rivalry,
2:14
Speaker 1: like Hulk Hogan and Randy Savage actually disliked each other
2:19
Speaker 1: or something.
2:24
Speaker 7: This was the art of the deal.
2:26
Speaker 1: I want this, and Mark rut the first thing he
2:29
Speaker 1: said was Trump's right about Greenland and Russia and China.

3:23
Speaker 1: included a golden dome and rare earth mineral rights. President
3:29

3:44
Speaker 1: coming to visit the United States. The story does not
3:49
Speaker 1: say she'll be meeting with President Trump. She said Wednesday

12:56
Speaker 5: It's on.
13:12
Speaker 2: The first thing today on the Talk Media Network by
13:16
Speaker 2: Joe Thomas.
13:28
Speaker 7: Just trying to live our lives man, you know what.
13:31
Speaker 1: And it's interesting as we look at, you know how
13:36
Speaker 1: some of these proposals are coming along as these legislations,
13:43
Speaker 1: these state legislations. The expansion and this is the thing
13:47
Speaker 1: that I think is most insidious of the expansion of
13:49
Speaker 1: the taxes. And I warned about this during the fair
13:55
Speaker 1: Tax movement that if you put too much emphasis on
13:59
Speaker 1: sale taxes, that's where they would go. And if there's
14:04
Speaker 1: an intransparent, hide out the back door kind of tax,
14:08
Speaker 1: it's a sales tax. I dislike them. I believe in
14:14
Speaker 1: what Ben Franklin said, if you want less of something,
14:17
Speaker 1: tax it. So if you're going to want less economic activity,
14:21
Speaker 1: tax sales. I mean, we've got sales tax proposals on
14:25
Speaker 1: things like renting storage spaces and seeking psychological health. I
14:34
Speaker 1: kid you not. And some of these things could be
14:37
Speaker 1: mandated by the government, which would force you to pay
14:40
Speaker 1: sales tax, because of course they learned how to do
14:44
Speaker 1: that under Obamacare. We can force you to buy something
14:47
Speaker 1: or tax you if you don't buy that Something's It's
14:55
Speaker 1: almost as if I'm reading some fanciful who is the L.
15:00
Speaker 1: Neil Smith novel that is chronicling this, so, you know,
15:11
Speaker 1: borderlined psychotic break of authoritarianism.
15:19
Speaker 22: It's L.
15:21
Speaker 21: N E. I. L.
15:23
Speaker 1: Smith if you're googling him, just if you want, if
15:28
Speaker 1: you want to make sure it's the right El Neil Smith.
15:31
Speaker 1: The most popular book series is The Probability Broach Anyway

Speaker 23: to worry about any of that either. So we make
16:54
Speaker 23: it very easy there at jcschool dot com. You know,
16:57
Speaker 23: I do want to speak very quickly. You're talking about
17:00
Speaker 23: sales tax. Of course, you know, if people don't know,
17:03
Speaker 23: there's currently no sales tax in Virginia on purchasing gold
17:08
Speaker 23: and silver bullion and coins, which is pretty incredible. We've
17:12
Speaker 23: been fortunate enough to get that pass to probably about
17:17
Speaker 23: five or eight years ago. We'll move sales tax on
17:20
Speaker 23: golden silver purchases in the state of Virginia, but that
17:23
Speaker 23: does expire this summer, and it's a sunset law and
17:28
Speaker 23: it could go back into effect.
17:30
Speaker 9: July one.
17:31
Speaker 23: So that's something that we are looking at very closely.
17:34
Speaker 23: And sure I already won in Virginia. Definitely mentioned the
17:38
Speaker 23: no sales tax on gold and silver.
17:40
Speaker 1: Yeah, and that's kind of that passive aggressive way of
17:43
Speaker 1: raising taxes too. They just put a sunset and then
17:45
Speaker 1: they just don't bother conveniently to extend it. But I'm watching,
17:50
Speaker 1: I'm looking at this list of things that they want
17:52
Speaker 1: to put sales tax on. You know, it's almost like
17:55
Speaker 1: a Beatles song come to life, you know, to tax rental,
18:02
Speaker 1: the rent on a storage space. They want to tax
18:05
Speaker 1: money you would spend on a therapist. I mean, it's
18:10
Speaker 1: it seems like there's no end to the insatiability of
18:13
Speaker 1: the things that they want to tax. Never mind things like, uh,
18:16
Speaker 1: you know they want to tax they want to tax
18:19
Speaker 1: you if you own a vehicle some more for a
18:22
Speaker 1: road tax, an additional one even if the car isn't registered.
18:25
Speaker 1: It's you know, they'll lump it into your personal property taxes.
18:29
Speaker 24: Uh.
18:29
Speaker 1: There, It's it's insatiable.
18:34
Speaker 23: Absolutely, and and it just makes uh, purchasing especially things
18:38
Speaker 23: like gold and silver, you know, it makes your dollar
18:40
Speaker 23: go you know, not nearly as far you buy less
18:44
Speaker 23: silver and buy less gold, and that definitely is intrumental investing.
18:50
Speaker 1: And there's there's another side to this, and I just
18:52
Speaker 1: forgot about this last year. They knocked it down in Congress,
18:56
Speaker 1: but they want to have an.
18:59
Speaker 7: Was it.
18:59
Speaker 1: It's not a capital gains tax, it's it's an unrealized
19:04
Speaker 1: capital gains taxes. So if you own gold, let's say
19:07
Speaker 1: you bought gold two years ago and it was a
19:09
Speaker 1: you know, a couple of thousand dollars announce and now
19:12
Speaker 1: it's forty What is gold and silver today? We've completely
19:16
Speaker 1: buried the lead here. How are gold and silver doing today?
19:19
Speaker 23: Yeah, gold is just at even so far today at
19:23
Speaker 23: four thousand, eight hundred and twenty eight dollars. Had an
19:26
Speaker 23: incredible run yesterday, up almost over one hundred dollars yesterday alone,
19:31
Speaker 23: currently sitting right at even so far today. Silver is
19:35
Speaker 23: back up three cours of percent to ninety three dollars
19:39
Speaker 23: and ninety cents, and had a little bit of a
19:41
Speaker 23: pullback yesterday, but hanging above ninety dollars so far, it
19:45
Speaker 23: seems to feel pretty comfortable at these levels.
19:47
Speaker 1: Well, and so my point was that if you bought
19:50
Speaker 1: gold a couple of years ago, and you can look
19:51
Speaker 1: at charts at jcsgold dot com to see what I'm
19:54
Speaker 1: talking about. Gold was a couple of thousand dollars an ounce.
19:58
Speaker 1: Now it's you know, one hundred and fifty times that
20:02
Speaker 1: you would be taxed even if you didn't spend that
20:05
Speaker 1: gold because the value is up and they want to
20:08
Speaker 1: be able to come after you even on unrealized capital gains.
20:12
Speaker 2: It's it's.
20:15
Speaker 1: I got to give them some credit for being creative,
20:18
Speaker 1: but it's hard to play whack a mole with some
20:21
Speaker 1: of this stuff.
20:23
Speaker 23: I mean, it really is like the saying that you'll
20:28
Speaker 23: own nothing and you'll be happy about it.

21:32
Speaker 1: great Bonner Cohen. Good morning, Bonner. How are you doing, sir?
21:35
Speaker 25: Good morning Joe. I'm doing well, and I hope you
21:38
Speaker 25: are too.
21:39
Speaker 1: Under the circumstances, well, yeah, under the circumstances of that question,
21:44
Speaker 1: we're going to talk about the Regional greenhouse Gas Initiative
21:47
Speaker 1: New York, Massachusetts, Pennsylvania, all these places in this mutual

23:10
Speaker 6: Today's modern vehicle, whether it's a car, suv, or light truck,
23:14
Speaker 6: is designed with a specific fuel in mind. Read your
23:17
Speaker 6: owner's manual. What octane rating does the vehicle manufacturer call for?
23:21
Speaker 6: That's what you should use, But there are exceptions to
23:23
Speaker 6: the rule. Many high end or luxury vehicles call for
23:26
Speaker 6: premium or higher octane fuel, and the reason for this
23:29
Speaker 6: is not just due to the octane rating. There are
23:31
Speaker 6: better fuel system cleaners in premium fuels. Gasoline companies know too.
23:35
Speaker 6: The vehicles that run on premium won't perform as well.
23:38
Speaker 6: With carbon deposits, so they pack more cleaning power into
23:41
Speaker 6: their premium fuels than their regular blend. If you rotate
23:44
Speaker 6: your fuel choices around say every third tank full, you
23:47
Speaker 6: may find better performance and miles per gallon because you
23:50
Speaker 6: are cleaning your engine and fuel system while you drive.
23:53
Speaker 6: Just don't tell your mechanic you're trying to replace them

29:03
Speaker 1: We're visiting Bonner Cohen Committee for a constructive tomorrow and
29:09
Speaker 1: the Regional Greenhouse Gas initiative lost one of its big signatories,
29:14
Speaker 1: the other about four years ago when Glenn Youngkin said
29:18
Speaker 1: he was pulling out of it, and everyone managed to
29:22
Speaker 1: have a classic case of bowel control problems soiled themselves
29:27
Speaker 1: over it. But he was allowed to and stayed out
29:29
Speaker 1: of it, but couldn't legislate it out. So now his successor,
29:35
Speaker 1: Abigail Spanberger, said, I'm in count me in again in
29:39
Speaker 1: a cabal that includes Connecticut, Delaware, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, New Hampshire,
29:47
Speaker 1: New Jersey, New York, Rhode Island, and Vermont, Ah such
29:50
Speaker 1: a conservative pantheon, Bonner, before we get into all the
29:55
Speaker 1: bait and switch of this and Bryce Reeves, I'm going
30:00
Speaker 1: to try to chronicle the craziness as we lurch to
30:03
Speaker 1: the left. But Bonnard, this is not about the climate
30:08
Speaker 1: or saving the planet. Let's make that clear from the onset.
30:12
Speaker 25: No, it's not about saving the planet. And we have
30:14
Speaker 25: to be very careful about what we mean when we
30:18
Speaker 25: say it makes money for Virginia. Actually, it's ultimately going
30:23
Speaker 25: to cost Virginia ratepayers who as a result of Reggie
30:29
Speaker 25: as well as a result of other energy policies she's imposing,
30:34
Speaker 25: as well as taxes she plans to raise. These people
30:39
Speaker 25: are going to see their disposable incomes reduced. And you
30:44
Speaker 25: have to ask the question to what end Reggie has
30:49
Speaker 25: been around for a couple of decades. It's a regional
30:53
Speaker 25: as you're party at the Greenhouse Initiative, featuring states from
30:58
Speaker 25: actually where you would expect them to be regional. That
31:01
Speaker 25: region is the Northeast and the mid Atlantic. Virginia was
31:06
Speaker 25: the southernmost state. Governor Youngkin had a good judgment to
31:09
Speaker 25: get Virginia out of it, and Governor Stanberger is getting
31:13
Speaker 25: Virginia right back into it.
31:16
Speaker 5: And it's one of these phony.
31:20
Speaker 25: Scams that was cooked up within the context of the
31:25
Speaker 25: narrative of man made global warming later rebranded as climate change,
31:33
Speaker 25: said to be caused by the burning of fossil fuels.
31:36
Speaker 25: So what do as long as well as certain agricultural practices.
31:42
Speaker 25: So what this aims to do on paper is to
31:47
Speaker 25: reduce our emissions of greenhouse gases by forcing emitters of
31:55
Speaker 25: greenhouse gases who go beyond and arbitrarily set the mission
32:03
Speaker 25: standard to then buy credits. And of course those credits
32:07
Speaker 25: that's the cash that Governor Spahnberger is referring to. Well,
32:12
Speaker 25: These carbon credits are nothing but a phony commodity. You
32:17
Speaker 25: can't put your hands on them. They don't accomplish anything,
32:22
Speaker 25: but they are one of the instruments dreamed up by
32:27
Speaker 25: people who saw the opportunity to virtue signal their commitment
32:34
Speaker 25: to the climate by putting up a scam that promises
32:39
Speaker 25: to put certain funds in the pockets of actually very
32:43
Speaker 25: few people at the expense of a great many people.
32:49
Speaker 25: I'm afraid they're just thinking about it. It's California, here
32:52
Speaker 25: we come. Because she's pointing Virginia in the self same
32:57
Speaker 25: direction as California and other Blue states have gone, namely
33:04
Speaker 25: staying loyal to the now thoroughly discredited climate narrative, one
33:11
Speaker 25: from which the United States, as well as many states
33:15
Speaker 25: within the US, and not to mention even Europe, slowly
33:19
Speaker 25: but surely are moving away from simply because they have
33:23
Speaker 25: seen that the policies being adopted to this under the
33:28
Speaker 25: guise of decarbonization, well, decarbonization means de industrialization. It's going
33:34
Speaker 25: to make Virginia increasingly dependent upon Brady wind and soul are,
33:41
Speaker 25: both of which are intermittent, extremely expensive, unreliable. And that
33:48
Speaker 25: is the direction in which she is taking the state.
33:52
Speaker 25: And this is again it's going to benefit a small
33:55
Speaker 25: group of people, but it will by no means provide
34:00
Speaker 25: aid and comfort to Virginia's long suffering rate payers who
34:05
Speaker 25: are about to pay a lot more to heat their
34:08
Speaker 25: homes in winter and cool them in summer as a
34:11
Speaker 25: result of the steps that she is taking.
34:15
Speaker 7: Well, and I'm curious about that.
34:16
Speaker 1: Bonner Cohen is on with us from the Committee for
34:19
Speaker 1: a Constructive TOMORROWCFACT dot org and he's been digging into
34:24
Speaker 1: this climate science. How long now, Bonner, have you been
34:27
Speaker 1: more of.
34:27
Speaker 25: I'd care to think actually over thirty thirty five years.
34:32
Speaker 25: The sad thing about it is the whole narrative is collapsing,
34:37
Speaker 25: and yet Spaumberger is going headlong taking Virginia and to
34:43
Speaker 25: the dead end of dependence on renewable energy. Believe me,
34:51
Speaker 25: Virginia rate payers as well as Virginia businesses and what
34:55
Speaker 25: have you, are going to pay dearly for this.
34:58
Speaker 1: And our friends. Fourteen ninety W. G. H. Greenwich got
35:02
Speaker 1: this text message from Karen who writes in you tell
35:07
Speaker 1: them because our rates have gone up every year since
35:10
Speaker 1: getting into Reggie, and yet we can't get anyone to
35:14
Speaker 1: even talk about the regional greenhouse gas initiative. And this
35:18
Speaker 1: is the thing, and you know, Karen, your your point,
35:22
Speaker 1: and Bonner, it's not about curtailing pollution, because in order
35:26
Speaker 1: for it to be about curtailing pollution, you have to
35:30
Speaker 1: assume that the air you exhale.
35:37
Speaker 7: Is pollution.
35:39
Speaker 1: Joel writes into four three, four, eight eight two four
35:41
Speaker 1: to two one seven. Remember when Texas couldn't get electricity
35:45
Speaker 1: because their solar panels failed. Actually, you know, as we
35:49
Speaker 1: bear down in snow apocalypse, I remember one, and I
35:56
Speaker 1: do recall the solar panel issue. As a matter of fact,
35:59
Speaker 1: there was a huge hay storm, if I'm remembering correctly, Joel.
36:03
Speaker 1: But the ice storm of them did to say, five
36:07
Speaker 1: six years ago. I'm not a meteorological historian, but there
36:13
Speaker 1: was a huge ice storm and their wind turbines froze.
36:19
Speaker 1: The wind turbines all failed, and their grid came collapsing
36:23
Speaker 1: down because they did. They've been trying to do this
36:27
Speaker 1: electric choice thing in Texas. That's ham handed no offense
36:33
Speaker 1: to our offense in Dallas or San Antonio that are listening,
36:36
Speaker 1: or Beaumont.
36:38
Speaker 2: But you've done it wrong.
36:39
Speaker 1: And if you want to do electric choice, you got
36:42
Speaker 1: to look at how Florida did it, because Florida doesn't
36:45
Speaker 1: have the problems that Texas does, because Texas does this
36:49
Speaker 1: kind of back door. Well, it's choice, but it's not
36:54
Speaker 1: really choice. You've got to go through the government any
36:57
Speaker 1: way to get to the choice, which just it's a
37:00
Speaker 1: whole other level of bureaucracy around the choice. It's just
37:05
Speaker 1: it's much in the same way that Virginia does school choice.
37:08
Speaker 1: You still have to get the government's approval to go
37:11
Speaker 1: to a school that the government has approved to be
37:14
Speaker 1: a school. It's the same thing Texas is doing with
37:17
Speaker 1: electric choice. But that grid came crashing down because it
37:21
Speaker 1: was overly reliant on wind turbines and solar panels. And
37:25
Speaker 1: during that ice storm. They attempted to say this four
37:28
Speaker 1: or five years ago, but I could be misjudging. It
37:31
Speaker 1: could have been a lot longer ago than that. Just
37:34
Speaker 1: everything came crashing down and there were massive electric outages
37:41
Speaker 1: that went on for weeks. I mean, even to the
37:44
Speaker 1: point where the news had to interrupt their Trump bashing
37:48
Speaker 1: to a port on Bonner again, a sea fact dot org,
37:53

Speaker 21: Can you believe with all the recent violent protests, looting,
38:05

38:09

39:19

39:32
Speaker 12: The Mayo Clinic found that kurcumin can decrease swelling and inflammation,
39:37
Speaker 12: has antioxidant properties, and research suggests that kurcumin can prevent
39:43
Speaker 12: cancer or at least slow the spread of cancer, and
39:46

41:15
Speaker 8: or penguins who travel up to five hundred miles to
41:17
Speaker 8: secure food for their families, or bush babies whose impressive
41:21
Speaker 8: jump allows them to navigate the trees and the wild
41:23
Speaker 8: in search of fruit. This remarkable work ethic is shared
41:26
Speaker 8: by our best friends, the canines. We know dogs are
41:29
Speaker 8: wonderful pets at home, but because of their acute senses,
41:32
Speaker 8: they also perform life saving work every day.
41:35
Speaker 5: Dogs keep us safe at airports.
41:36
Speaker 8: They comfort returning veterans, some of whom suffer from PTS.
41:39
Speaker 8: They work with diabetics, alerting them when there's a change
41:42
Speaker 8: in their blood chemistry. Working dogs have a variety of
41:45
Speaker 8: highly trained roles that contribute to society and help those
41:47
Speaker 8: in need. So please join me an American Humane and
41:50
Speaker 8: supporting our heroic working dogs and all the amazing animals
41:53

42:05
Speaker 26: And now a speech.
42:07
Speaker 19: I just want to say that friendship is about heart,
42:11
Speaker 19: heart and brain.
42:12
Speaker 5: Who's with me?
42:13
Speaker 19: Good thing is he knows when he's buzzed, and my
42:16
Speaker 19: brain is saying when it's time to go home.
42:18
Speaker 7: Somebody call me a ride.
42:20
Speaker 26: Love that guy, me too.
42:22
Speaker 4: Know your buzzed warning signs, call for a ride when
42:24
Speaker 4: it's time to go home. Buzz driving is drunk driving.

44:14
Speaker 2: The First Thing Today by Joe Thomas on the top
44:18
Speaker 2: media networks.
44:25
Speaker 7: Junius US. As we were.
44:28
Speaker 1: Making the analogy and I don't know if he's a sailor.
44:31
Speaker 1: I know he was an army ranger, but he may
44:33
Speaker 1: know a thing or two about boats. He is Senator
44:37
Speaker 1: Bryce Reeves. The area I like to refer to as
44:42
Speaker 1: fred Vegas is, you know, the happening suburbs of Washington,
44:47
Speaker 1: d C. Or the the the the the end of
44:50
Speaker 1: the sprawl as a wall.
44:52
Speaker 28: Uh.
44:52
Speaker 7: But Bryce, do you have you ever? Are you a
44:55
Speaker 7: sailor at all?
44:56
Speaker 1: To get out on the water at all?
44:58
Speaker 10: I do not sail, but do boat quite a bit.
45:01
Speaker 1: So you know, if you ever watch those those sloop
45:04
Speaker 1: boast the sailboat races when they cut hard, hard to
45:07
Speaker 1: the left and the bow dips into the water and
45:10
Speaker 1: everyone leans off the starboard side of the boat and
45:13
Speaker 1: the boat's just digging into turn left. I feel like
45:17
Speaker 1: the Commonwealth of Virginia has taken that kind of a
45:21
Speaker 1: turn in this are your brothers and sisters representing the
45:28
Speaker 1: rest of Virginia doing a here hold my beer moment,
45:31
Speaker 1: and they're just going to try to turn us into
45:34
Speaker 1: the most left wing state in the country before twenty
45:38
Speaker 1: twenty six is over.
45:42
Speaker 10: You know, we're definitely in the Californication of Virginia, and
45:46
Speaker 10: you know, Joe, you and I talk about this less
45:50
Speaker 10: than three weeks ago, about going in this session, and
45:54
Speaker 10: we were going to wait to see how she would govern.
45:58
Speaker 10: Abigail Stamberger would govern. Right, she said all these things,
46:02
Speaker 10: I'm a moderate, We're gonna do this and this, And
46:05
Speaker 10: within two hours of being sworn in, what what's the
46:10
Speaker 10: first thing? She did reverse Governor Younkin's order of the
46:13
Speaker 10: state police to be able to work with our fellow
46:16
Speaker 10: law enforcement officers and forced immigration.
46:18
Speaker 1: Yeah, sanctuary stale from there. Yeah, we are now a
46:22
Speaker 1: sanctuary state.
46:23
Speaker 7: You know, Minnesota.
46:24
Speaker 1: You know, we might as well get Tim Waltz down
46:26
Speaker 1: here to govern it. But I was just and it's
46:30
Speaker 1: not just me, you know here in Virginia, guys like
46:33
Speaker 1: Steve Moore are are just a gog at the kind
46:35
Speaker 1: of it's not even the regulations. It's one thing to say, hey,
46:40
Speaker 1: while we're all marching against Trump, we're going to prohibit
46:44
Speaker 1: protesting outside of a planned parenthood facility. I'd love to
46:48
Speaker 1: see how that holds up in court if it does.
46:51
Speaker 1: But this is the pantheon of taxes that they're They're
46:55
Speaker 1: talking about, UH sales tax on internet services and and
46:59
Speaker 1: and eats deliveries and dry cleaning and landscaping. Never mind
47:05
Speaker 1: the gross receipts tax on guns, and then a four
47:09
Speaker 1: percent net investment income tax, which is that perceived capital
47:15
Speaker 1: gains capital gains before they're realized taxes. And then the
47:20
Speaker 1: top tax bracket with a ten percent tax rate. Bryce,
47:24
Speaker 1: I mean, I think California looks conservative compared to us.
47:28
Speaker 7: If this all goes through.
47:30
Speaker 17: We certainly have more new delegates in the House of
47:34
Speaker 17: Delegates that are more liberal than all the liberals in Sacramento.
47:38
Speaker 17: There's no doubt about that. You mentioned taxes. Yesterday, I
47:42
Speaker 17: was sitting and hearing and I listened to one of
47:45
Speaker 17: my colleagues in the Senate Florida bill that would tie
47:49
Speaker 17: the hands of our National Guard to be able to
47:51
Speaker 17: even communicate with their federal partners, not really understanding the
47:55
Speaker 17: legality of the different types of orders that our National
47:59
Speaker 17: guardsmen have to go on to try to poke Trump
48:01
Speaker 17: and the eye. And the reality is is ninety five
48:06
Speaker 17: percent of the National Guard's budget is presented by the
48:09
Speaker 17: federal government, and they own one hundred percent of all
48:11
Speaker 17: the equipment. So keep poking the bear, and the bear
48:15
Speaker 17: is just going to take your everything away. So how
48:17
Speaker 17: are you going to respond to this we're going to
48:19
Speaker 17: have I'd say they probably declare a national disaster or
48:23
Speaker 17: a state disaster if we get as much no as
48:26
Speaker 17: they actually say we're going to get, and if you
48:28
Speaker 17: take all the vehicles and the helicopters and everything else
48:31
Speaker 17: we need to respond to those things. In the Commonwealth
48:33
Speaker 17: of Virginia, we don't have the money to front our
48:36
Speaker 17: own army, our own national guard. I mean, the decisions
48:39
Speaker 17: some of my colleagues are making and the bills that
48:41
Speaker 17: they're putting in are just asinine and it's going to
48:45
Speaker 17: destroy the commonwealth. I've already heard from constituents. I've paid
48:49
Speaker 17: attention to social media. There are people leaving. As fast
48:52
Speaker 17: as some people got here, they're going to leave twice
48:55
Speaker 17: as fast. And that's really disheartening for those of us.
48:58
Speaker 17: But you know, Joe, as I said, our caucus is
49:02
Speaker 17: totally focused on running on affordability and putting in thills
49:06
Speaker 17: to help Virginians. We've done that, We've said that in
49:09
Speaker 17: our press briefs. We all are carrying those kinds of bills.
49:12
Speaker 17: We're trying to stay focused. Governor Younkin led us left
49:17
Speaker 17: with a lot of money in our surplus and that's
49:21
Speaker 17: still not enough. So they're going to tax and spend
49:23
Speaker 17: us and they're gonna I just I'm just blown away.
49:27
Speaker 17: I never thought i'd go that far.
49:29
Speaker 1: Well, let me ask you this, and this is something
49:32
Speaker 1: I think you and I have talked about. I've talked
49:33
Speaker 1: about it with other Republican leaders, and I'm not you know,
49:36
Speaker 1: I'm not a party guy, per se. I just want
49:40
Speaker 1: common sense for the listener. But when the Democratic Party
49:44
Speaker 1: is in a minority situation, they pull every parliamentary trick
49:50
Speaker 1: if you want to call them that. They're really procedures.
49:52
Speaker 1: They're in there to protect the voice of the minority,
49:55
Speaker 1: you know. But it just doesn't seem like the Republicans
50:00
Speaker 1: are able to mount this what is going on in
50:03
Speaker 1: the cloak rooms to try to stop some of this
50:06
Speaker 1: before it gets to Governor Spanberger and it gets signed
50:09
Speaker 1: into law. And to me, you know, on behalf of
50:12
Speaker 1: the listeners in Ohio and Tennessee, this becomes precedent setting,
50:19
Speaker 1: because they're Marxists in their states will come along and say, well,
50:23
Speaker 1: look at what they did in Virginia. So if they
50:26
Speaker 1: did it in Virginia, we can do it here in Tennessee.
50:30
Speaker 22: Well, Joe, you're right.
50:31
Speaker 17: I was just on one American News and I mentioned
50:34
Speaker 17: the same thing on Riley Lewis to show that trying
50:38
Speaker 17: to give these other states a little bit of warning
50:40
Speaker 17: that hey, this is coming to a state near you,
50:42
Speaker 17: and you might be fat and happy and think you
50:44
Speaker 17: have this great majority of Republicans and Conservatives and everything else,
50:48
Speaker 17: but it's not going to happen like that. They're going
50:50
Speaker 17: to run the same exact place everywhere else. These multi
50:55
Speaker 17: billionaires are giving Bukou money to all these these the
51:00
Speaker 17: crack caucuses across the nation to try to take back
51:03
Speaker 17: the states because that's where the real power lies is
51:06
Speaker 17: in the states.
51:07
Speaker 1: Well, and they see it, and they see it as
51:09
Speaker 1: a way too, as you said, poke a finger in
51:11
Speaker 1: the eye of President Trump, who meanwhile, peace in Gaza,
51:15
Speaker 1: oh Greenland wasn't what the press was telling us.
51:18
Speaker 22: It was.
51:19
Speaker 1: All of this is falling apart on them. Is this
51:23
Speaker 1: brinksmanship of the American left, and here in Virginia just
51:27
Speaker 1: the spokes child for it to do as much as
51:30
Speaker 1: they can before they get to the midterms. Never mind
51:33
Speaker 1: the Constitutional Amendment. I fear on the subject of the
51:38
Speaker 1: Constitutional Amendment, you know for the Democrats that by being
51:43
Speaker 1: this way, bless them for their zeal, they're going to
51:48
Speaker 1: awaken people who are going to clamp down on this
51:51
Speaker 1: constitutional overturn for redistricting.
51:54
Speaker 7: Am I wrong?
51:55
Speaker 17: Bryce, No, they're seizing power and they want to seize
52:00
Speaker 17: for the next you know, ten to twenty years, and
52:03
Speaker 17: it would take that long, and you know they'll tout
52:07
Speaker 17: the Virginia way, but that's gone. It's absolutely gone. We
52:11
Speaker 17: started to see this swamp kind of come down from Washington,
52:17
Speaker 17: d C. I don't know, three four years ago and
52:21
Speaker 17: then now it's permanently here and they're just in Bolden
52:24
Speaker 17: and you know they're being encouraged by the rest of
52:26
Speaker 17: the states because Virginia was the first one in the
52:29
Speaker 17: queue after Trump's election and they're using it as a marker.
52:34
Speaker 17: Let me tell you something. I saw more congressmen from
52:37
Speaker 17: other liberal states at the inauguration, to include the governor
52:42
Speaker 17: of New Jersey, and in fact, our governor was just
52:45
Speaker 17: in New Jersey like a day or two ago.
52:48
Speaker 1: It's a big what you just got elected.
52:50
Speaker 31: What you know, It's true, difficult times have a way
52:53
Speaker 31: of focusing us. We have to think about what matters
52:56
Speaker 31: most when it comes to our spending our healthcare. This
52:59
Speaker 31: is why so many people are joining meta share right now.
53:03
Speaker 31: Metashare is a trusted way to save up to fifty
53:06
Speaker 31: percent on your monthly healthcare costs. More than four hundred
53:09
Speaker 31: thousand people have already made the switch. It's pretty obvious
53:12
Speaker 31: why too, especially now during this challenging season with health
53:16
Speaker 31: care costs and out of pocket expenses going up. Metas
53:19
Speaker 31: Share can save you.
53:20
Speaker 5: A lot of money.
53:21
Speaker 31: The typical family saves five hundred dollars a month. Meda
53:25
Speaker 31: Share works too. It's been around for thirty years. Members
53:28
Speaker 31: have shared more than five billion dollars of each other's bills.
53:31
Speaker 31: There are different options to choose from to fit your budget.
53:34
Speaker 31: I'll give you the number here in a second, and
53:35
Speaker 31: if you call, you can get a price within two minutes.
53:38
Speaker 31: Maybe now is the perfect time to make the switch
53:41
Speaker 31: and start saving.
53:42
Speaker 2: Here you go call eight five five Share forty.
53:45
Speaker 31: That's eight five five share forty eight five five Share
53:50
Speaker 31: forty
