- 0:14Speaker 2: Jewart said, steal me stem. You have a day at
- 0:19Speaker 2: least for work, when the sun comes up, drops.
- 0:22Speaker 3: A kid to school.
- 0:23Speaker 4: Then Joe has.
- 0:25Speaker 2: Everything a dream do all the treasure. Seven needs no
- 0:30Speaker 2: one that Joe zawis smile.
- 0:32Speaker 4: He only is.
- 0:37Speaker 5: Joe.
- 0:38Speaker 6: Thank you for letting us be of service to you.
- 0:43Speaker 6: Four three four eight eight two four two one seven.
- 0:47Speaker 6: That's how we do it here on the program that'll
- 0:49Speaker 6: tell you what went on last night?
- 0:51Speaker 7: For sure.
- 0:52Speaker 6: We'll give you our analysis of what went on last night,
- 0:55Speaker 6: for sure, but mostly for sure, we let you tell
- 0:59Speaker 6: us how it is impact you where you are. This
- 1:02Speaker 6: one from Terry, who writes in from New Orleans where
- 1:08Speaker 6: listening on the Great Wgso there, he said, Joe, the
- 1:13Speaker 6: story you had about the fertilizer costs going up, I
- 1:18Speaker 6: had no idea how much of it came from.
- 1:20Speaker 7: The Middle East.
- 1:20Speaker 6: Why well, because of the natural gas. So apparently because
- 1:27Speaker 6: of the abundant natural gas supplies there, and that's an
- 1:30Speaker 6: essential ingredient in making mass produced fertilizer. All the rest
- 1:35Speaker 6: of the stuff has started to either go there or
- 1:38Speaker 6: get made there from the raw materials. So apparently thirty
- 1:43Speaker 6: five I thought twenty percent of the world's oil supply
- 1:47Speaker 6: going through the Strait of Hoard moves was a lot.
- 1:50Speaker 6: Thirty five percent of the world's fertilizer supply comes through there.
- 1:55Speaker 6: And this all goes back into why, you know, dealing
- 1:59Speaker 6: with it Iran has always been a punch and judy
- 2:02Speaker 6: affair because all Iran ever had to do, which is
- 2:06Speaker 6: exactly what it's doing right now, is threatened to close
- 2:10Speaker 6: the Strait of Hormuz, and that's kept every president from
- 2:15Speaker 6: dealing with this state sponsor of terrorism, including the one
- 2:18Speaker 6: who got almost unanimous congressional approval to go after state
- 2:23Speaker 6: sponsors of terror in two thousand and two. And that's
- 2:30Speaker 6: a reminder for all the folks who like Senate hasn't
- 2:33Speaker 6: voted on this, Well, technically this is still the war
- 2:35Speaker 6: on terror, been going on for some time now.
- 2:40Speaker 7: So yeah, they did.
- 2:44Speaker 6: Sorry, but you know, I understand you want to say
- 2:47Speaker 6: Congress should have a voice in this, but they did,
- 2:50Speaker 6: and they didn't sunset it. They didn't they didn't say
- 2:55Speaker 6: we're approving this war on terror until two thousand and five. Yeah,
- 3:00Speaker 6: so it's a blank check, but onto that. Yes, Iran
- 3:07Speaker 6: is threatening the fertilizers supply. Thirty five percent of the
- 3:12Speaker 6: world's fertilizer trade passes through the Strait of Horror Moves
- 3:17Speaker 6: as Iran continues to saber rattle there now causing concern
- 3:23Speaker 6: in the farming industry and causing the prices of fertilizer
- 3:27Speaker 6: as it exists on the shelf of your local feed
- 3:32Speaker 6: and farm store to go up based on the fact
- 3:35Speaker 6: that it may be harder to replace the next time around.
- 3:38Speaker 6: Same thing happening to your diesel fuel. Meanwhile, the Iranian
- 3:46Speaker 6: government says that it might close the Straight of Horror
- 3:49Speaker 6: Moves militarily and start to impose a fee for safe passage,
- 3:56Speaker 6: claiming propriety over what they would create a toll root
- 4:00Speaker 6: through the air. Right now, the issues with shipping and
- 4:04Speaker 6: the Strait of Hormuz are mostly based on shipping companies
- 4:08Speaker 6: not being able to ensure the boats going through this
- 4:12Speaker 6: hot button area. Israeli intelligence told State of the Union
- 4:18Speaker 6: and Israeli ambassador told the State of the Union that
- 4:21Speaker 6: their intel says there will be Iranian boots on the
- 4:25Speaker 6: ground soon. That's probably going to take place very soon.
- 4:31Speaker 6: They tried to rise up last month and were brutally
- 4:34Speaker 6: put down, but it's coming, meaning an overthrow of the
- 4:39Speaker 6: theocratic regime in Iran. Over the weekend, President Trump took
- 4:44Speaker 6: to social media to urge Republicans to hold the line
- 4:47Speaker 6: on shut down negotiations around the DHS, saying that they
- 4:51Speaker 6: shouldn't negotiated all over that until the Democrats agreed to
- 4:55Speaker 6: vote for the Save America Act. Over the weekend, debate
- 4:59Speaker 6: with held over the Act, in which Virginia Senator Tim
- 5:03Speaker 6: Kaine said would disenfranchise one out of ten US citizens
- 5:08Speaker 6: for not being able to prove it. The President reinstalled
- 5:13Speaker 6: a statue of Christopher Columbus on the White House grounds,
- 5:17Speaker 6: constructed in part from fragments of a monument destroyed during
- 5:20Speaker 6: the twenty twenty anti history protests in Baltimore. More than
- 5:26Speaker 6: two thousand people remain without power this morning, after Hawaii
- 5:31Speaker 6: suffered the worst flooding in more than twenty years, when
- 5:33Speaker 6: heavy rains fell for the second time in a week,
- 5:38Speaker 6: causing floodwaters to rise and cause what they're estimating is
- 5:42Speaker 6: a billion dollars in damages, and the NCAA basketball Sweet
- 5:47Speaker 6: Sixteen is sent for this week Texas will face Purdue
- 5:51Speaker 6: and Iowa will take on Nebraska in the first Games

- 9:37Speaker 13: than from breast cancer, traffic accidents, or AIDS. Vaccines like

- 9:53Speaker 13: or even a severe blood infection. That's just one example

- 11:05Speaker 11: you recognize them? By their clothes, their age, the way

- 11:16Speaker 16: feed his little sisters.
- 11:19Speaker 11: Or a mother who's in between jobs and sometimes goes
- 11:22Speaker 11: to bed hungry so her kids can have dinner. Or
- 11:25Speaker 11: a fourteen year old girl who signs up to every

- 11:30Speaker 11: get something to eat.

- 12:56Speaker 7: It's on.
- 13:18Speaker 1: Making mornings great again. First thing today on the Talk
- 13:22Speaker 1: Media Network by Joe Thomas.
- 13:27Speaker 11: Somebody save me.
- 13:32Speaker 6: Me for lesson.
- 13:36Speaker 7: Save America Acts.
- 13:38Speaker 6: So now it's gone from the twenty million voters that
- 13:41Speaker 6: would twenty million people that would lose the ability to
- 13:45Speaker 6: vote by asking them to be American citizens. Now now
- 13:49Speaker 6: it's thirty four million Americans who can't find their birth certificate.
- 13:57Speaker 6: And you know, at some point they're going to settle
- 13:59Speaker 6: on some thing So over the weekend the Senate and
- 14:02Speaker 6: the debate over the Save America Act, you know, the
- 14:05Speaker 6: bill that in all heresy they've been trying to find
- 14:09Speaker 6: a way to vilify.
- 14:11Speaker 7: They can't.
- 14:12Speaker 6: They keep trying, and they say, you know, Chuck Schumer
- 14:14Speaker 6: says twenty million people will lose their right to vote,
- 14:17Speaker 6: and people like you and me say, are they citizens?
- 14:22Speaker 6: Is it because they're not citizens? I'm sorry, yes, because
- 14:27Speaker 6: Chuck's a lawyer, would lose their ability to vote, that's right,
- 14:31Speaker 6: twenty million. And then the Federation for American Immigration Reform
- 14:35Speaker 6: came out and said, well, it's actually eighteen point six
- 14:38Speaker 6: million Americans. Would a million people in the United States
- 14:42Speaker 6: would lose their ability to vote because they're not citizens
- 14:46Speaker 6: the United States, Bob in Moscow writes in by email,
- 14:53Speaker 6: A little bit tougher than just asking them to prove
- 14:56Speaker 6: that they're US citizens to vote in any election in
- 14:59Speaker 6: the US. Say you must be able to speak right
- 15:01Speaker 6: and understand English. If you cannot understand the election, then
- 15:05Speaker 6: how can you legally vote as you have no understanding
- 15:08Speaker 6: of what you are doing? Well, you know, and this
- 15:11Speaker 6: opens a can of geffilter fish back through why we
- 15:16Speaker 6: had voting rights versus voting responsibilities. At the foundation of
- 15:23Speaker 6: the nation, only property owner only land owners could vote.
- 15:32Speaker 6: They were also the ones who were being taxed, so
- 15:35Speaker 6: it seemed like a fair exchange. We will tax you
- 15:38Speaker 6: on the property you own and the value of it,
- 15:40Speaker 6: and then you get to vote in who gets to
- 15:43Speaker 6: tax you. And over time that became insufficient for the
- 15:47Speaker 6: greed that was already manifesting itself amongst our elected officials.
- 15:57Speaker 6: So they decided that wasn't good. And so now property ownership.
- 16:02Speaker 6: So if you had a horse, but you rented your house,
- 16:04Speaker 6: you owned property, so well, tax you didn't you get
- 16:07Speaker 6: a right to vote as well. So we expand out
- 16:11Speaker 6: from there. We talked about universal suffrage. It was asked
- 16:15Speaker 6: about last week and the debate about the Save Act
- 16:18Speaker 6: and women's right to vote. Well, women did have the
- 16:21Speaker 6: right to vote if they owned property. See that was
- 16:25Speaker 6: the gag, is that most women at that point had
- 16:28Speaker 6: been prohibited from owning property unless it had been passed
- 16:32Speaker 6: down and they were the air and that kind of thing.
- 16:38Speaker 6: So universal suffrage really is what opened up the door
- 16:42Speaker 6: to a lot more people having a say in the government,
- 16:46Speaker 6: thus creating I think the equation the scientific experiment that
- 16:55Speaker 6: begins the pandering. However, the US Constitution still had rule
- 17:00Speaker 6: against that kind of pandering and safeguards against it when
- 17:04Speaker 6: the Senate was appointed by the states to protect their budgets,
- 17:09Speaker 6: because the states were the ones who collected the taxes,
- 17:13Speaker 6: and therefore they were the ones who got to have
- 17:16Speaker 6: a say in how it was being spent, even though
- 17:18Speaker 6: the very populist House would react to my constituent's need
- 17:24Speaker 6: because the jobs are hard, don't pay well, and little
- 17:34Speaker 6: by little.
- 17:34Speaker 7: We opened the door to more and more things.
- 17:36Speaker 6: But the last vestige of that is citizenship. So this
- 17:43Speaker 6: is sort of a universal suffrage on steroids.
- 17:53Speaker 7: That if you're here and at some point the gameplay
- 17:56Speaker 7: it out.
- 17:57Speaker 6: If we've gotten to this point where if you're in
- 17:59Speaker 6: the United States, people like Chuck Schumer and Tim Kaine
- 18:06Speaker 6: want any John oss Off, they want anyone to vote.
- 18:09Speaker 6: If you're here, Well, why stop there. Let's say you
- 18:14Speaker 6: work for a company that sells products in the United States.
- 18:17Speaker 6: Why can't you have a right to vote your United
- 18:21Speaker 6: States adjunct?
- 18:27Speaker 7: What if you're.
- 18:29Speaker 6: Working for one of these firms that makes all the
- 18:31Speaker 6: fertilizer in the Middle East, shouldn't you have a say
- 18:34Speaker 6: in the US government. You see how once you've passed
- 18:42Speaker 6: this particular barrier, the permutations are endless. So when they
- 18:51Speaker 6: start using the rhetoric that one out of ten Americans
- 18:56Speaker 6: will be disenfranchised, what they mean is one out of
- 19:00Speaker 6: ten American citizens can't find their documents. So prove them wrong.
- 19:06Speaker 6: Go find your documents. Go make sure you have your documents.
- 19:10Speaker 6: Send a note to Tim Kaine or Chuck Schumer Bernie
- 19:15Speaker 6: Sanders saying Hey, I'm an American and I know where
- 19:18Speaker 6: my birth certificate is. Send out the call to those
- 19:23Speaker 6: in your neighbor So you have ten friends, I presume
- 19:25Speaker 6: you have ten friends, ten acquaintances if it's been a
- 19:29Speaker 6: rough time for you. What they're claiming is of your
- 19:33Speaker 6: ten closest acquaintances, one of them doesn't know where their
- 19:36Speaker 6: birth certificate is. So set them on that task. Right now.
- 19:41Speaker 7: It's only March twenty third. Only Virginia is.
- 19:44Speaker 6: Currently voting for anything, because we're nuts and we apparently
- 19:51Speaker 6: just like voting.
- 19:56Speaker 7: Vote for everything.
- 19:57Speaker 6: And Virginia really is becoming California, you with smaller mountains
- 20:01Speaker 6: and beaches. But while Virginia is about the only place
- 20:07Speaker 6: currently voting for anything, get your friends prepped, say, do
- 20:12Speaker 6: you have your birth certificate? Do you have your naturalization paperwork?
- 20:18Speaker 6: Generally speaking, I think the naturalized citizens are more careful
- 20:22Speaker 6: about it than the kid who was born in Flushing
- 20:25Speaker 6: Hospital in New York and couldn't. I don't know what
- 20:27Speaker 6: I need this for. I got my driver's license and
- 20:30Speaker 6: now I'm you know, do I need it? And you
- 20:31Speaker 6: don't look at it. Nobody looks at their birth certificate
- 20:34Speaker 6: every day. And that's the thirty four million of now
- 20:39Speaker 6: voters that will be disenfranchised under the Save America Act
- 20:42Speaker 6: because it will require you to prove that you are
- 20:46Speaker 6: an American citizen. And their argument is, one out of
- 20:50Speaker 6: ten of us can't.
- 20:53Speaker 7: Is that true? Do you know? People?
- 20:55Speaker 6: I mean, I will confess when we had to because
- 20:59Speaker 6: we needed to fly somewhere, and we're actually had we
- 21:02Speaker 6: thought about it, you know, and flying has become really
- 21:07Speaker 6: inconvenient for this program.
- 21:09Speaker 7: Anyway.
- 21:09Speaker 6: We are driving to Dallas for seapack, partially because my
- 21:14Speaker 6: wife likes driving, partially because it doesn't ruin an entire
- 21:18Speaker 6: day's worth of productivity from me.
- 21:20Speaker 7: I can't.
- 21:21Speaker 6: I cannot just have a giant, twenty four hour black
- 21:24Speaker 6: hole of inability. To do any work, so and we
- 21:29Speaker 6: would have to take a day off from the show,
- 21:31Speaker 6: and you know how I loathe to do that, but
- 21:34Speaker 6: we needed a real idea to get on a freaking
- 21:37Speaker 6: airplane because we don't have passports. We haven't traveled internationally,
- 21:42Speaker 6: and there was a scramble because we didn't remember the
- 21:45Speaker 6: last time and we didn't have We do now a
- 21:48Speaker 6: much more secure and predictable place to have documents like oh,
- 21:51Speaker 6: your birth certificate.
- 21:53Speaker 7: But if it.
- 21:53Speaker 6: Happens to someone like me, there are people in your
- 21:56Speaker 6: world who can't find it, and you should tell them
- 21:58Speaker 6: to look for it.
- 21:59Speaker 7: Now. Hey, I'm Brandt and her name is Shary I love.
- 22:04Speaker 21: She's a friend of mine whom we were just praying
- 22:06Speaker 21: for because of a surgery. She just went through.
- 22:09Speaker 22: Yes, and I am very happy about something you actually
- 22:11Speaker 22: talk about all the time, which.
- 22:13Speaker 21: Is meta share.
- 22:14Speaker 23: That is right.
- 22:14Speaker 21: Yeah, So what was your experience like with meta share
- 22:17Speaker 21: and health care ability?
- 22:18Speaker 22: Honestly, Brandt seamless and what a blessing that is. When
- 22:21Speaker 22: you're already nervous about a health issue, which I was,
- 22:24Speaker 22: members shared my expenses. There were zero problems and let
- 22:27Speaker 22: me tell you, having people pray with you when you
- 22:30Speaker 22: call in with your need.
- 22:32Speaker 21: That is just refreshing.
- 22:34Speaker 22: Yes, that's what it is.
- 22:35Speaker 21: I keep telling people people love meta share and they
- 22:38Speaker 21: love saving money. The typical family can save five hundred
- 22:41Speaker 21: dollars a month.
- 22:42Speaker 22: I am very thankful for Meta share. It is so different,
- 22:46Speaker 22: and I mean different in a very very good way.

- 23:01Speaker 24: Hi. I'm doctor Michael Bailey, President of the American Veterinary
- 23:05Speaker 24: Medical Association. Artificial intelligence is everywhere, and now it's helping
- 23:10Speaker 24: veterinarians deliver better care for pets. From AI assisted radiographs
- 23:15Speaker 24: that speed up diagnoses to tools that help spot diseases,
- 23:19Speaker 24: AI supports veterinary teams in exciting ways. We're using AI
- 23:24Speaker 24: to develop personalized cancer treatments, predict chronic conditions like feline
- 23:29Speaker 24: kidney disease, and even streamline record keeping so veterinarians can
- 23:34Speaker 24: focus more on patients. But as with any new technology,
- 23:39Speaker 24: always keep a human in the loop to maintain the
- 23:42Speaker 24: best pet healthcare. AI is a powerful tool, but not
- 23:47Speaker 24: a replacement for your veterinarians expertise, compassion and judgment, which
- 23:52Speaker 24: remains at the center of our profession. For more information

- 28:26Speaker 6: So while the Senate began, do we have the clip
- 28:29Speaker 6: of the very opening of the Senate debate. I know
- 28:31Speaker 6: this is our Kane, but you have to understand the
- 28:34Speaker 6: crazy made place we are. The voice you're going to
- 28:38Speaker 6: hear is the Clerk of the United States Senate motion to.
- 28:41Speaker 30: Proceed to Calendar Number three one one hr seven one
- 28:44Speaker 30: four seven and Act making further consolidated Appropriations for the
- 28:48Speaker 30: fiscal year in September thirty, twenty twenty six, and for
- 28:51Speaker 30: other purposes.
- 28:53Speaker 6: And for other purposes. See this is what makes people
- 28:56Speaker 6: so angry. So in order to get the Save America
- 29:01Speaker 6: Act on the floor, it had to be stapled onto
- 29:03Speaker 6: an appropriations bill, even though it has nothing to do
- 29:07Speaker 6: with appropriations.
- 29:08Speaker 7: So they have to come up with a way. Oh well,
- 29:10Speaker 7: it's going to have to do with some.
- 29:12Speaker 6: Monies that we're sending to the states for budgets and
- 29:15Speaker 6: so on and so forth, so that we can bring
- 29:19Speaker 6: it onto the floor and avoid you touching anyone's cloture
- 29:26Speaker 6: upon reading that's the House, the Senate Majority Leader, John Thune.
- 29:33Speaker 31: Mister President. It's rare for the Senate to be in
- 29:35Speaker 31: session on a Sunday. Needless to say, the fact that
- 29:39Speaker 31: we are here today tells you that what we're doing
- 29:42Speaker 31: is important work.
- 29:44Speaker 6: By the way, the gallery full of empty seats billies,
- 29:48Speaker 6: whether or not they're actually there or nothing.
- 29:50Speaker 7: That is the Save America Act.
- 29:52Speaker 31: As President, the core of the Save America Act is
- 29:55Speaker 31: securing American elections, and a big way the bill accomplishes
- 29:59Speaker 31: that is what two common sense policies requiring proof of
- 30:04Speaker 31: citizenship to registered to vote and requiring a photo ID
- 30:08Speaker 31: when you go to cast a ballot.
- 30:11Speaker 6: Most states already have the photo ID deal in there.
- 30:14Speaker 6: It's the citizenship. Then Chuck Schumer and all the acolytes,
- 30:18Speaker 6: the John Ossoffs and the Raphael Warnocks and the Tim
- 30:21Speaker 6: Kaynes will get up and start talking about how one
- 30:25Speaker 6: out of ten Americans will be disenfranchised. It's a poll tax,
- 30:30Speaker 6: it's vote suppression. It's all the greatest hits. This one
- 30:33Speaker 6: based on the fact that, given short notice, most of
- 30:37Speaker 6: us you have, but some of us can't find our
- 30:41Speaker 6: birth certificate or I guess the implication is our naturalization paperwork.
- 30:47Speaker 6: Though I think if you've been naturalized as a citizen,
- 30:50Speaker 6: that you're more likely to know where that is than
- 30:52Speaker 6: somebody who was born a couple of decades ago and
- 30:55Speaker 6: hasn't looked at their birth certificate since, unless you've gone
- 30:58Speaker 6: through the real ID, and that's where it blows up.
- 31:01Speaker 6: This is a point I made, you know, My wife
- 31:03Speaker 6: and I had to go scramble because we hadn't looked
- 31:05Speaker 6: at our birth certificates in a while and they were
- 31:08Speaker 6: in an envelope. We did eventually find them, but for
- 31:11Speaker 6: the time schedules of needing to get airline passage all
- 31:16Speaker 6: taken care of for travel to an event we were
- 31:19Speaker 6: bringing to you, we needed to expedite getting our real ID.
- 31:25Speaker 6: I know, don't judge, don't judge, So in order for
- 31:30Speaker 6: brevity's sake, we went to the counties we were born
- 31:33Speaker 6: in and just said, just here, here's twenty five bucks,
- 31:36Speaker 6: give me a new copy of it, and we both
- 31:39Speaker 6: got new copies of it, and wouldn't you know, within
- 31:41Speaker 6: like a week of getting the new copies, we found
- 31:44Speaker 6: the original ones. But that's you know, neither here nor there.
- 31:47Speaker 6: That's what they're playing on, is that on November third,
- 31:50Speaker 6: you're going to say, oh gosh, we have to vote
- 31:52Speaker 6: in a couple of days, and I'm not on the
- 31:55Speaker 6: voter rolls or.
- 31:55Speaker 7: But right before the I think it's May thirtieth, right.
- 31:59Speaker 6: Before the deadline, Oh my gosh, we're not on the
- 32:01Speaker 6: voter rolls, and hammin to hamm and hamina and you're
- 32:03Speaker 6: not going to be able to go to the state
- 32:06Speaker 6: or the county you were born in and secure a
- 32:09Speaker 6: copy of your birth certificate from it, so to That's
- 32:13Speaker 6: that's what they're playing on. So I'm telling you this, now,
- 32:16Speaker 6: start the process. Make sure you can find it, even
- 32:20Speaker 6: if it's been a couple of years since you did
- 32:22Speaker 6: the real id thing, Go and go and make sure
- 32:28Speaker 6: you know where it is. You put your hand on it.
- 32:30Speaker 6: And if you don't have a secure place for all
- 32:33Speaker 6: these documents, trust me on this, make one. Let me
- 32:36Speaker 6: get to We've got a couple of folks on the line.
- 32:38Speaker 6: Clark's online one let me see who's online. Two here,
- 32:41Speaker 6: good morning.
- 32:41Speaker 7: Who's this, Hey, Jeff, it's Joel. Good morning, Good morning Joel.
- 32:45Speaker 6: You are next in the queue, So take a number
- 32:48Speaker 6: and we'll the deli operator will be you to cut
- 32:50Speaker 6: some bologni for you in just a moment or two.
- 32:53Speaker 6: But doctor Clark was hanging on the line before the
- 32:55Speaker 6: delhi opened. So what can we cut for you off
- 32:58Speaker 6: the slice of bologni this morning?
- 33:01Speaker 28: Ooh, thick cuts place bloney and then fright, but make
- 33:05Speaker 28: an accentence so that don't bubble up.
- 33:07Speaker 7: O it go.
- 33:09Speaker 6: That's a that's a man after my own heart. Fried baloney.
- 33:12Speaker 6: That's it's a fried baloney sandwich is grilled cheese style
- 33:15Speaker 6: as well. But anyway, I digress. What's on your mind
- 33:18Speaker 6: this morning, Clark?
- 33:20Speaker 28: So the resistance from the Democrats to the Save Act, Joe,
- 33:25Speaker 28: it's not about the people that will be disenfranchised and
- 33:30Speaker 28: not go cast votes. It's about the inability to expand
- 33:34Speaker 28: voter rolls to have the elasticity they need to steal elections.
- 33:41Speaker 7: You know, there was a.
- 33:42Speaker 28: Time when cartons of cigarettes will get you a meal,
- 33:47Speaker 28: et cetera, et cetera. We'll get them over those days
- 33:51Speaker 28: are gone.
- 33:52Speaker 22: They need.
- 33:55Speaker 28: More to win now. So if you've got a given
- 34:00Speaker 28: and there's one hundred eligible voters, if they know for
- 34:05Speaker 28: a certain fact that sixty of them are going to
- 34:07Speaker 28: vote for the Republican and they'll have forty Democrats show up,
- 34:12Speaker 28: they need twenty one more votes to eke out of victory.
- 34:17Speaker 28: And you can't do that if there's only one hundred
- 34:20Speaker 28: people on the voter rolls.
- 34:23Speaker 6: Well, what they've done in the past, if I may
- 34:25Speaker 6: insert here, what they have done in the past, and
- 34:27Speaker 6: they're finding greater and greater trouble to though Tucker Carlson
- 34:30Speaker 6: and Candice Owens are doing their level best to do
- 34:34Speaker 6: this is to get thirty of those sixty Republicans to
- 34:37Speaker 6: stay home out of spite.
- 34:41Speaker 28: Well, that's always yes, and that's in the past and
- 34:44Speaker 28: it's work going. But since Obama and Joe Biden, those
- 34:49Speaker 28: Republicans are going to the polls. So they need a
- 34:54Speaker 28: new method. We can't fight the last war and win
- 34:56Speaker 28: this one.
- 34:57Speaker 7: That's true. That's a great time.
- 34:59Speaker 28: I have to understand what they're doing now, and they
- 35:02Speaker 28: need those extra numbers on the motor rolls, not so
- 35:06Speaker 28: they can get those people to turn out and vote
- 35:09Speaker 28: so they can manufacture bogus ballots for them. Hopefully between
- 35:16Speaker 28: now and twenty twenty eight, or I don't know, maybe
- 35:20Speaker 28: twenty thirty. We'll find out what the heck happened in
- 35:23Speaker 28: Fulton County to night the lights went out because totally.
- 35:26Speaker 6: Well, there's going to be people pushing back against it,
- 35:29Speaker 6: because there's the fear that it will tear apart the
- 35:33Speaker 6: idea of the established order. And there is a reasonable
- 35:41Speaker 6: and I will say reasonable because I have it. I
- 35:44Speaker 6: will profess that I don't like some of the people. Well,
- 35:49Speaker 6: I don't like the rhetoric I'm hearing regarding tearing up
- 35:52Speaker 6: the system because I don't believe in the people who
- 35:55Speaker 6: are saying it. I don't believe they have best intentions
- 35:59Speaker 6: on their mind, and I don't like what their plan is.
- 36:04Speaker 6: If you can pend them down to a plan, they're
- 36:07Speaker 6: really concerning. Ones are the ones who don't have a
- 36:10Speaker 6: plan for what comes next, because I think they're just
- 36:13Speaker 6: being set up as useful apparatics. But the ones who
- 36:18Speaker 6: have a plan, their plan is not a good plan
- 36:21Speaker 6: for what comes next. So I want to make sure
- 36:23Speaker 6: that the system and if we find out what happened
- 36:26Speaker 6: when the lights went out and the plumbing backed up
- 36:29Speaker 6: in Georgia, in the Fulton County, three hundred thousand phony
- 36:33Speaker 6: bloony ballots. We find out in a way that saves
- 36:37Speaker 6: the system, that makes the system strong again, not one
- 36:41Speaker 6: that creates more acrimony about tearing it apart.
- 36:45Speaker 7: Does that make any sense to you, Clark?
- 36:48Speaker 28: It does make sense. And you know, here's the thing.
- 36:51Speaker 28: When you look at cross Fire Hurricane, where I don't
- 36:57Speaker 28: know if there's somebody involved in the intel community that
- 37:01Speaker 28: was not involved in costs Fire Hurricane, please tell me
- 37:04Speaker 28: who it was, because best as I can tell, that
- 37:07Speaker 28: was a collaboration of all of them, right down the
- 37:13Speaker 28: line where the perfidy was obvious enough that anybody paying
- 37:21Speaker 28: attention can tell that it was going on. Then you
- 37:26Speaker 28: look at the night the lights went out in Georgia,
- 37:28Speaker 28: clearly an election was stolen. When you look at these things, Joe,
- 37:32Speaker 28: you like to talk about, it's a feature, not a flaw.
- 37:36Speaker 28: You have to wonder if the goal is not erosion
- 37:41Speaker 28: of trust in our system.
- 37:44Speaker 7: I don't wonder.
- 37:45Speaker 6: I'm damn well convinced aside from winning some elections and
- 37:50Speaker 6: making some cash, I will tell you right to your
- 37:53Speaker 6: face that this is about us not liking the system,
- 37:56Speaker 6: because in order for this system to be put away,
- 37:58Speaker 6: we have to part it, vote.

- 38:14Speaker 19: I could no longer drive a car, couldn't use a computer, type,
- 38:17Speaker 19: couldn't use a mouse. I could not hold my son,

- 39:04Speaker 10: Considered by most optimized curcumin is one of the few
- 39:07Speaker 10: bioavailable and highly absorbable curcumin products on the market. Hi,
- 39:13Speaker 10: I'm doctor Mitch. Since most chronic diseases have inflammation, our
- 39:18Speaker 10: optimized curcumin seems to be a perfect addition to any
- 39:22Speaker 10: nutritional program. It makes sense to me that preventing or
- 39:27Speaker 10: reducing inflammation is a key component to our overall health.
- 39:32Speaker 10: The Mayo Clinic found that kurcumin can decrease swelling and inflammation,
- 39:37Speaker 10: has antioxidant properties, and research suggests that kurcumin can prevent
- 39:42Speaker 10: cancer or at least slow the spread of cancer, and
- 39:46Speaker 10: in many instances, make chemotherapy more effective. It protects our

- 40:59Speaker 5: Hi, everybody, I'm Jack and it's always a boy. Growing
- 41:01Speaker 5: up on a farm in Tennessee, I've been fascinated with animals.
- 41:04Speaker 5: I'm not only in all of their beauty and kindness,
- 41:06Speaker 5: but also their tireless work ethic. Just look at the
- 41:09Speaker 5: birds who gather supplies to build nests, or Swiss foxes
- 41:12Speaker 5: who work hard to provide for their young, or penguins
- 41:15Speaker 5: who travel up to five hundred miles to secure food
- 41:18Speaker 5: for their families, or bush babies whose impressive jump allows
- 41:21Speaker 5: them to navigate the trees and the wild in search
- 41:23Speaker 5: of fruit. This remarkable work ethic is shared by our
- 41:26Speaker 5: best friends, the canines. We know dogs are wonderful pets
- 41:29Speaker 5: at home, but because of their acute senses. They also
- 41:33Speaker 5: perform life saving work every day. Dogs keep us safe
- 41:35Speaker 5: at airports. They comfort returning veterans, some of whom suffer
- 41:38Speaker 5: from PTSS. They work with diabetics, alerting them when there's
- 41:41Speaker 5: a change in their blood chemistry. Working dogs have a
- 41:44Speaker 5: variety of highly trained roles that contribute to society and
- 41:47Speaker 5: help those in need. So please join me an American
- 41:50Speaker 5: Humane and supporting our heroic working dogs and all the
- 41:52Speaker 5: amazing animals on this planet we inhabit together. Go to

- 42:07Speaker 18: I just want to say that friendship is about heart,
- 42:10Speaker 18: art and brain.
- 42:12Speaker 7: Who's with me?
- 42:13Speaker 8: Good thing is he knows when he's buzzed, and my
- 42:15Speaker 8: brain is saying when it's time to go home.

- 42:19Speaker 25: Love that guy, me too.

- 42:24Speaker 16: it's time to go home. Buzz driving is drunk driving.

- 43:32Speaker 33: first to notice when a veteran you love has been
- 43:35Speaker 33: going through changes. Things like withdrawing, drinking more, or increased
- 43:41Speaker 33: anger could be a sign of a larger health concern,

- 44:19Speaker 6: Way out, Dan writes in listening to us this morning
- 44:41Speaker 6: on kfar up in Fairbanks. He writes in who is
- 44:45Speaker 6: the name of the doctor that Alexandra occasional cortex gets
- 44:49Speaker 6: her ketamine treatments from?
- 44:51Speaker 7: After listening to these.
- 44:52Speaker 6: Folks debate the Save Act, I may need some see
- 44:56Speaker 6: that's that's working everything into synergy there. And we only
- 45:00Speaker 6: just briefly mentioned this report that apparently AOC is spending
- 45:05Speaker 6: a couple of what was it eight nineteen, just under
- 45:09Speaker 6: nineteen thousand dollars of campaign funds on ketamine treatment for
- 45:14Speaker 6: I don't know if it's depression or PTSD, or as
- 45:19Speaker 6: one of the listeners earlier said, maybe it's for her
- 45:22Speaker 6: staff because they have to work with her. There's a
- 45:26Speaker 6: reasonable question about that as well. Question about the Save
- 45:31Speaker 6: Act from Maureen who says, so it would require only
- 45:37Speaker 6: citizens vote, Why does that become a problem disenfranchising citizens.
- 45:43Speaker 6: It's about the proof, that's the argument they're making. That's
- 45:45Speaker 6: why I'm saying, now, prove them wrong. Make sure you
- 45:51Speaker 6: have your birth certificate. Most of us who have gone
- 45:54Speaker 6: through the whole real id Shenanigan have had to have
- 45:58Speaker 6: put our hands on our birth certify at some point anyway.
- 46:02Speaker 6: So I think their numbers are overblown. The Democrats are
- 46:06Speaker 6: claiming that one out of ten of us can't prove
- 46:10Speaker 6: where a US citizen. I think that's setting up the
- 46:13Speaker 6: field for a bunch of folks who aren't US citizens
- 46:16Speaker 6: saying I'm just like everyone else, I can't prove it's
- 46:19Speaker 6: all It all works together because they're trying to pitch
- 46:24Speaker 6: a narrative. They're trying to get you to not notice
- 46:29Speaker 6: what the new McDonald's hamburger looks like while the CEO
- 46:35Speaker 6: kind of grimaces while he bites into it. Pay no
- 46:39Speaker 6: attention to that. Just imagine that it's only five dollars
- 46:42Speaker 6: for that and a fry in a soda. Okay, Joel
- 46:47Speaker 6: was hanging on the line with us before we headed
- 46:49Speaker 6: to break just now, so let's find out what's on
- 46:52Speaker 6: his mind this morning down in Florida.
- 46:53Speaker 7: Good morning, Joel, what's going on?
- 46:56Speaker 20: Hey, good morning, Jie. I know you want to jump
- 46:59Speaker 20: on this right way. So let me get this out
- 47:01Speaker 20: real quick and then I'll then I know it's your
- 47:03Speaker 20: show and everything, but.
- 47:03Speaker 6: Just well, yeah, hang on a second, hang on, before
- 47:06Speaker 6: you even start. Who are you talking to that make
- 47:09Speaker 6: you know? There are some there is some producer for
- 47:12Speaker 6: some talk show that is really you treated you ill?
- 47:16Speaker 6: Because you know, I don't know who it is in
- 47:19Speaker 6: my industry that would make a listener feel that way,
- 47:22Speaker 6: But they're going to have to deal with me at
- 47:24Speaker 6: some point because I want.
- 47:25Speaker 7: To hear what you have to say.
- 47:28Speaker 6: Yes, it's my name's on the mask at I get it,
- 47:31Speaker 6: but but I want to hear what you have to say.
- 47:33Speaker 7: That's that's part of what I want to do here anyway.
- 47:36Speaker 6: So so you know, do you please send me a
- 47:40Speaker 6: text message?
- 47:41Speaker 7: Who is it? Is it Mark Levin? Is it Mark
- 47:43Speaker 7: Levin's people? You know I want to I want to
- 47:45Speaker 7: have it out with these people. Is they don't? Don't
- 47:48Speaker 7: you gaslight my listeners? Right? Anyway? You were saying, so what.
- 47:55Speaker 20: It just angers me because I love America, I love
- 47:59Speaker 20: other Americans. But how freaking lazy people are that the
- 48:05Speaker 20: the real idea has been They started, they said, you know,
- 48:09Speaker 20: it's gonna it's gonna becoming. It's becoming since almost twenty ten,
- 48:13Speaker 20: two thousand and nine, and now what is it. It's
- 48:16Speaker 20: it's sixteen years later, and and people are I don't
- 48:20Speaker 20: understand America likes to react after the fact, and we
- 48:25Speaker 20: have a president that they do it, and it I mean,
- 48:29Speaker 20: look at look at I'm sorry, but I'm not trying
- 48:32Speaker 20: to put us down, but look.
- 48:34Speaker 7: At World War two Pearl Harbor.
- 48:36Speaker 20: There were warnings about it, and there are plenty of
- 48:38Speaker 20: warnings about North Korea going to get nuclear weapons. And
- 48:42Speaker 20: how many administrations I think there were like seven, four
- 48:45Speaker 20: or five or seven or something, and now they have
- 48:48Speaker 20: nukes and now everybody's can I say the word, you know,
- 48:52Speaker 20: something itching with a B on it, but everybody's from.
- 48:58Speaker 6: The way the kids say it be odds.
- 49:01Speaker 20: Everybody's biation. And it's like I've heard this expression. Okay,
- 49:07Speaker 20: so peace, peace is peace is preferred of war, and
- 49:11Speaker 20: war is preferred aver nuclear annihilation.
- 49:16Speaker 6: Yeah, I've heard that before as well. One of the
- 49:18Speaker 6: reasons I think we wait is that we believe the
- 49:22Speaker 6: best in people. So part of it, you talked about
- 49:26Speaker 6: World War two, we were convinced that Japan's beef was
- 49:32Speaker 6: with China and not the rest of the world. We
- 49:36Speaker 6: were convinced Germany's beef were was with countries that had
- 49:40Speaker 6: been part of their country but had been taken away
- 49:43Speaker 6: in the Treaty of Versailles, even though the first countries
- 49:47Speaker 6: they invaded had not been taken away from them in
- 49:50Speaker 6: the Treaty Versailles. We kept being told they were just
- 49:53Speaker 6: looking for elbow room, and oh, and the Polish people
- 49:57Speaker 6: were committing acts of terrorism against them, when it turned
- 50:01Speaker 6: out later they were actually blowing up their own munitions
- 50:04Speaker 6: dumps and blaming it on the polls.
- 50:06Speaker 7: But we.
- 50:09Speaker 6: Listened to and said, oh, okay, they say it's no
- 50:12Speaker 6: big deal.
- 50:13Speaker 7: They say it's no big deal.
- 50:14Speaker 6: Even while Allies were saying, hey, they're cutting off supplies,
- 50:20Speaker 6: they're marshaling at our border, please help. And we had
- 50:25Speaker 6: a lot of folks who said, that's not our fight.
- 50:28Speaker 6: And I think there is a point in the world
- 50:33Speaker 6: history where even George Washington acknowledges in his farewell address
- 50:39Speaker 6: that there are things that the United States needs to
- 50:42Speaker 6: stand up for. He worried about just getting involved in
- 50:46Speaker 6: wars because we have a piece of paper that said,
- 50:49Speaker 6: if we're allies with a country, we have to go
- 50:52Speaker 6: to war with them. That's what he was worried about
- 50:54Speaker 6: when he talks about his international entanglements. He never said
- 50:58Speaker 6: that we shouldn't go to war for people who are
- 51:01Speaker 6: begging for liberty. We need to be that shining city
- 51:05Speaker 6: on the hill that that comes to the downtrodden's rescue.
- 51:09Speaker 7: But we do.
- 51:10Speaker 6: We do take a long time to get involved internationally
- 51:15Speaker 6: because a lot of us don't see the upside. Now
- 51:18Speaker 6: we're looking at pain, you know, maybe coming to the
- 51:22Speaker 6: grocery store because here we go with fertilizer prices going
- 51:26Speaker 6: up again, the oil prices so far not as bad
- 51:29Speaker 6: as it was during the Biden administration. But we need
- 51:33Speaker 6: to get the straight of horror moves open, period. And
- 51:36Speaker 6: we need to make sure these people, you know, can't
- 51:39Speaker 6: just close off shipping to a huge part of the world.
- 51:44Speaker 6: They're they're threatening about setting up tolls like the New
- 51:47Speaker 6: York State Thruway Commission.
- 51:49Speaker 7: Uh and and you know.
- 51:51Speaker 6: That, oh yeah, I we'll let you through as if
- 51:54Speaker 6: they're the ones who own the straight of horror moves.
- 51:56Speaker 6: So there are places we have to get involved. You
- 51:59Speaker 6: were talking about the Save Act specifically, and I know
- 52:03Speaker 6: that the comparison you were making to the to the
- 52:08Speaker 6: Real ID is that we we wait till the last minute.
- 52:12Speaker 6: Are you saying that there were people who haven't gotten
- 52:14Speaker 6: the Real ID yet or no.
- 52:17Speaker 20: I'm talking in general with a lot of things in America.
- 52:20Speaker 20: They tell people, I mean, there's there's credible, there's credible
- 52:25Speaker 20: uh warning, fair warning, and there was on the Real ID.
- 52:29Speaker 20: And then people are like, oh, yeah, I need to
- 52:31Speaker 20: do this. I need to do that. You've had plenty
- 52:34Speaker 20: of time to do it. And the other thing is
- 52:36Speaker 20: people do that with their health too.
- 52:38Speaker 7: Well, yeah, that's it.
- 52:40Speaker 20: I'm just gonna I'm just going to have one last drink. Oh,
- 52:42Speaker 20: I'm going to eat this last five candy bars. I'm
- 52:45Speaker 20: gonna I'm gonna do this.
- 52:46Speaker 7: I'm going to start tomorrow. That's the famous one. I'll
- 52:49Speaker 7: start tomorrow.
- 52:51Speaker 27: A few years ago, my youngest son had something minor
- 52:55Speaker 27: turned into something very major in a matter of hours.
- 52:57Speaker 28: It was Medisie that came through for us, and there
- 53:00Speaker 28: there was no hassles, there was no problem.
- 53:02Speaker 27: That's what's so wonderful about knowing that you're a part
- 53:05Speaker 27: of such an incredible ministry.
- 53:07Speaker 17: Meta Share is a biblical approach to healthcare where Christians
- 53:11Speaker 17: share each other's medical expenses.

- 53:17Speaker 16: with you through the hardest times of your life.

- 53:25Speaker 17: and members have shared over eight billion dollars of each
- 53:27Speaker 17: other's medical bills.

- 53:31Speaker 9: You can focus on on supporting other people.
- 53:33Speaker 18: Meta Share is affordable.
- 53:35Speaker 17: Medishare is biblical.
- 53:36Speaker 25: Medashare is family.
