Transcript
- 0:18Speaker 1: But despite of the abundance of information, no one is
- 0:22Speaker 1: able to come to sensible compute.
- 0:24Speaker 2: First thing today on the Talk Media Network by Joe Thomas,
- 0:29Speaker 2: the second most famous Thomas and Charlotte's.
- 0:31Speaker 3: Mill, you Ward said, steal metem a day.
- 0:37Speaker 4: At least for work. When the sun comes.
- 0:38Speaker 1: Up drops a scot That was karma right there. I
- 0:46Speaker 1: had to do is say something about the Charlie Kirk
- 0:48Speaker 1: radio show. They did. We go do ourselves. Joe, thank
- 0:55Speaker 1: you for letting us be of service to you this morning.
- 0:58Speaker 4: I want to be yah.
- 1:02Speaker 1: When we cut to the news at the top of
- 1:04Speaker 1: the hour, doctor Clark and I were on this messaging
- 1:07Speaker 1: thing because you know, the left is out there trying
- 1:11Speaker 1: to backspin President Trump's affordability speeches and making a mess
- 1:17Speaker 1: of it. This is Tim Kaine.
- 1:20Speaker 5: People are suffering prices for healthcare, prices for energy, prices
- 1:25Speaker 5: for building supplies, prices for food. I mean everywhere people
- 1:30Speaker 5: are seeing prices increase.
- 1:32Speaker 1: And of course Tim leaves out the fact that all
- 1:34Speaker 1: those things are things the Democrats have caused to be
- 1:38Speaker 1: more expensive. But the Republicans outside of Trump just don't
- 1:42Speaker 1: seem to be willing to message this.
- 1:45Speaker 6: There's just not much message there.
- 1:48Speaker 1: It's as if.
- 1:50Speaker 6: Clearly my unstated platform is so good that you should
- 1:54Speaker 6: just recognize it as such and I don't have to explain.
- 1:56Speaker 1: It or let me posit this one you or they
- 2:02Speaker 1: don't believe it, that's possible, you know. It's it's one
- 2:07Speaker 1: thing to say, hey, I'm for lower taxes and personal
- 2:11Speaker 1: responsibility and school choice and what else is on the list? Uh,
- 2:15Speaker 1: restricting abortions and uh whate and you read the talking points.
- 2:20Speaker 1: If you don't believe them, it's not going to be easy.
- 2:23Speaker 1: And you see it in some of these talk radio
- 2:26Speaker 1: show hosts who don't believe what they're saying. They've just
- 2:29Speaker 1: realized that, hey, it's pretty easy network gig to say
- 2:32Speaker 1: I'm a conservative, and all of a sudden, you know,
- 2:35Speaker 1: Fox News puts me on their their radio feed or
- 2:38Speaker 1: they'll distribute my podcast, you know, And what does that mean?
- 2:43Speaker 1: What does that come to when somebody says I'm poor?
- 2:46Speaker 1: How are conservative principles going to fix that? And that's
- 2:50Speaker 1: what you know, I think you know would win if
- 2:53Speaker 1: you said, well, what do you do? What are you
- 2:55Speaker 1: good at?
- 2:56Speaker 5: Oh?
- 2:56Speaker 1: I like to fix things. Okay, so let's figure out
- 2:59Speaker 1: a way you can things and make money at doing it. Oh,
- 3:02Speaker 1: I never thought of that. Okay, there's conservative free market principles,
- 3:07Speaker 1: and it's took me twenty seconds to elucidate it. But
- 3:12Speaker 1: Republican office holders, I truly too many of them don't
- 3:17Speaker 1: believe the stuff they're saying any more than Tim Kain
- 3:21Speaker 1: believes what he's saying. Tim Kaine, of course, is committed
- 3:25Speaker 1: and has good writers, But I don't think the Republicans
- 3:27Speaker 1: hire good writers, and they don't really believe what they're selling.
- 3:32Speaker 1: Probably not.
- 3:33Speaker 6: And what did Ronald Reagan say about what was it?
- 3:36Speaker 6: Bold colors and pastels?
- 3:38Speaker 1: Joe Yes, absolutely good.
- 3:44Speaker 2: Yea.
- 3:44Speaker 1: But yeah, you have to have him. You have to
- 3:46Speaker 1: have them. But you have to believe too. You gotta
- 3:49Speaker 1: believe to Tug McGraw, Tim's dad. By the way, if
- 3:53Speaker 1: you're wondering who's Tug McGraw's he that country music singer, No,
- 3:56Speaker 1: it's the country music singer's dad played a little bass
- 4:00Speaker 1: ball in his day. Are first things on this Thursday morning.
- 4:06Speaker 1: President Trump still on his tour to pitch the idea
- 4:11Speaker 1: that prices are coming down. In the meantime, his Department
- 4:15Speaker 1: of the Interior has transferred seven hundred and sixty acres
- 4:19Speaker 1: of land in between San Diego and Imperial Counties and
- 4:23Speaker 1: the Mexican border to the US Navy's jurisdiction to quote
- 4:28Speaker 1: strengthen ongoing border security operations. Thirteen House Republicans joined Democrats
- 4:36Speaker 1: to put the side President Trump's executive order cracking down
- 4:40Speaker 1: on federal worker unions. The vote on the discharge petition
- 4:46Speaker 1: started by Congressman Jared Golden of Maine, Democrat, would force
- 4:51Speaker 1: a vote today on the issue. Speaking of discharge petitions,
- 5:00Speaker 1: Congresswoman Anna Paulina Luna of Florida has filed one to
- 5:05Speaker 1: force a vote to ban stock trading by Congress members.
- 5:09Speaker 1: Luna says her legislation quote is being taken so seriously
- 5:13Speaker 1: that both Leader Hakeem Jeffries and Speaker Mike Johnson are
- 5:18Speaker 1: sending members home so there won't be enough members to
- 5:21Speaker 1: sign on to it. Senator John Fetterman is standing up
- 5:25Speaker 1: for widow of former Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk
- 5:30Speaker 1: when he says it's gross and dehumanizing to attack a
- 5:35Speaker 1: widow with young children after just witnessing a public assassination.
- 5:42Speaker 1: His response was to commentator Jennifer Welch on her I've
- 5:46Speaker 1: Had It podcast, The left wing pundit said this woman,
- 5:50Speaker 1: meaning Kirk, should be kicked to the curb. She is
- 5:52Speaker 1: an absolute grifter, just like Donald Trump and her unrepentant, racist,
- 5:57Speaker 1: homophobic husband. Former Michigan Wolverine's head coach Sharon Moore is
- 6:03Speaker 1: now in jail. The school's athletic director dismissed Moore after
- 6:08Speaker 1: inappropriate relationships with the staffer came to light. The thirty
- 6:12Speaker 1: nine year old is now in Washingtaw County Jail in Michigan.
- 6:16Speaker 1: They do not list the charge. A federal judge in
- 6:24Speaker 1: San Francisco, Charles Bryer, has issued a preliminary injunction brought
- 6:30Speaker 1: by California officials to stop the use of California National
- 6:34Speaker 1: Guards troops in ice operations in Los Angeles, and the
- 6:40Speaker 1: Food and Drug Administration is looking into whether COVID nineteen
- 6:44Speaker 1: vaccines are tied to any deaths. Government officials announced that
- 6:49Speaker 1: they are quote doing a thorough investigation across multiple age
- 6:52Speaker 1: groups of deaths potentially related to COVID vaccines. The FDA
- 6:58Speaker 1: is also looking at RSVD.
- 7:01Speaker 7: For veterans concerned about their alcohol or drug use, seeking
- 7:05Speaker 7: help can be the first step toward recovery. Doctor Joseph Liberto,
- 7:09Speaker 7: national Mental Health Director for Substance Use Disorders with the

- 8:04Speaker 9: Considered by most, Optimized curcumin is one of the few
- 8:07Speaker 9: bioavailable and highly absorbable curcumin products on the market. I
- 8:13Speaker 9: am doctor Mitch. Since most chronic diseases have inflammation, our
- 8:18Speaker 9: optimized curcumin seems to be a perfect addition to any
- 8:22Speaker 9: nutritional program. It makes sense to me that preventing or
- 8:26Speaker 9: reducing inflammation is a key component to our overall health.
- 8:32Speaker 9: The Mayo Clinic found that kurcumin can decrease swelling and inflammation,
- 8:37Speaker 9: has antioxidant properties, and research suggests that kurcumin can prevent
- 8:42Speaker 9: cancer or at least slow the spread of cancer, and
- 8:46Speaker 9: in many instances, make chemotherapy more effective. It protects our
- 8:51Speaker 9: healthy cells even from radiation. Total Wellness dot com where

- 9:58Speaker 11: Hiryboddy, I'm Jack and it's always a boy. Growing up
- 10:01Speaker 11: on a farm in Tennessee, I've been fascinated with animals.
- 10:04Speaker 11: I'm not only in awe of their beauty and kindness,
- 10:06Speaker 11: but also their tireless work ethic. Just look at the
- 10:09Speaker 11: birds who gather supplies to build nests, or Swiss foxes
- 10:12Speaker 11: who work hard to provide for their young, or penguins
- 10:15Speaker 11: who travel up to five hundred miles to secure food
- 10:18Speaker 11: for their families, or bush babies whose impressive jump allows
- 10:21Speaker 11: them to navigate the trees and the wild in search
- 10:23Speaker 11: of fruit. This remarkable work ethic is shared by our
- 10:26Speaker 11: best friends, the canines. We know dogs are wonderful pets
- 10:29Speaker 11: at home, but because of their acute senses, they also
- 10:32Speaker 11: perform life saving work every day. Dogs keep us safe
- 10:35Speaker 11: at airports. They comfort returning veterans, some of whom suffer
- 10:38Speaker 11: from PTSS. They work with diabetics, alerting them when there's
- 10:41Speaker 11: a change in their blood chemistry. Working dogs have a
- 10:44Speaker 11: variety of highly trained roles that contribute to society and
- 10:46Speaker 11: help those in need. So please join me an American

- 11:10Speaker 1: heart and brain.

- 11:32Speaker 16: heating and cooling. Energy efficiency isn't just good for the environment,
- 11:37Speaker 16: It means lower utility bills too. One way to reduce

- 12:32Speaker 3: first to notice when a veteran you love has been
- 12:35Speaker 3: going through changes. Things like withdrawing, drinking more, or increased

- 13:20Speaker 1: Case you can't breathe, Yeah, I got that bad case
- 13:30Speaker 1: of bad but the bat boogie woogie flew Uh they're well,
- 13:35Speaker 1: actually you can breathe, it's just your lungs won't transfer
- 13:38Speaker 1: the oxygen into your blood. Can't imagine who taught this
- 13:44Speaker 1: aerosol virus how to do that? No, that certainly is
- 13:50Speaker 1: a function it gained. Uh, and I want to pick
- 13:53Speaker 1: up on this story. I don't want the program to
- 13:56Speaker 1: end before we've had a chance to push around this story.
- 14:00Speaker 1: Worry about the FDA looking into and my first reaction is, oh, good,
- 14:10Speaker 1: the government's looking into it. About the only way I'd
- 14:12Speaker 1: be filled with more confidence in this investigation into whether
- 14:16Speaker 1: or not the clot shots were fatal even in some
- 14:21Speaker 1: instances or not. It would be if the director of
- 14:25Speaker 1: the FBI said, we've assigned a special counsel, Jack Smith,
- 14:29Speaker 1: will be handling this investigation. But they are doing what
- 14:36Speaker 1: they're doing. And I want to harken back to we're
- 14:39Speaker 1: okay with this clip was done after the lawsuit, right, okay,
- 14:43Speaker 1: so I can play this clip. This is me with
- 14:45Speaker 1: doctor Robert Malone, the man whose mr NA breakthroughs, which
- 14:52Speaker 1: were originally done to help expand CAN'T treatment's efficacies, had
- 15:03Speaker 1: been co opted by government scientists to make insta vacs,
- 15:08Speaker 1: these vaccine templates that you you well, just listen to
- 15:13Speaker 1: my chat with doctor Malone about this. This was from
- 15:17Speaker 1: Freedom Fest just earlier this year. So sau is sy
- 15:21Speaker 1: War selling. How is it being his new book?
- 15:24Speaker 17: By the way, it's it's selling well, but not as
- 15:28Speaker 17: well as the prior when the Liesma government told me,
- 15:31Speaker 17: which came out at a very opportune moment when people
- 15:35Speaker 17: were really first beginning to wake up. I think the
- 15:38Speaker 17: cywar topic area is a little it's a little harder
- 15:42Speaker 17: for people to wrap their arms around.
- 15:44Speaker 1: It's a dark topic. And as I've chronicled it on
- 15:48Speaker 1: on my show, because and I was actually talking about
- 15:51Speaker 1: it with Aaron Siri from the High Wire, I said,
- 15:54Speaker 1: because you know, to me, when you put together and
- 15:58Speaker 1: you and I heard the first time you did this
- 16:00Speaker 1: presentation it was a Children's Defense fund banquet. You get
- 16:04Speaker 1: together and you told you laid it all out. And
- 16:07Speaker 1: I looked at my wife and I said, oh my god.
- 16:10Speaker 1: It actually makes sense in a dark, perverse way that
- 16:14Speaker 1: they're saying, well, we need this kind of vaccine because
- 16:18Speaker 1: there are bio weapons. We need to be ready to
- 16:21Speaker 1: roll out these, you know, instant vaccines for our soldiers
- 16:26Speaker 1: who are getting sprayed with bioweapons.
- 16:29Speaker 17: And also the other parallel threat is emerging infectious disease
- 16:34Speaker 17: because of filling the blank climate change, environmental.
- 16:38Speaker 1: Disruption blah blah blah.
- 16:41Speaker 17: So there's those there's the engineered threat pathogen threat, and
- 16:46Speaker 17: then there is the emerging infectious disease threat. And the
- 16:49Speaker 17: logic is that both of them represent such compelling risks
- 16:55Speaker 17: that it's necessary to create a risky technology in order
- 17:01Speaker 17: to counter that threat. And you know, here in our
- 17:06Speaker 17: area of Virginia, Charlottesville, there is a defense training facility
- 17:12Speaker 17: and think tanks associated with this. There is truly an
- 17:16Speaker 17: honest belief among a subset of people that this type
- 17:25Speaker 17: of infectious disease threat is truly an existential risk for
- 17:30Speaker 17: the human race. It is they believe that the human
- 17:34Speaker 17: race is under great threat for an extinction event. Now,
- 17:39Speaker 17: the counterpoint to that is that we've been around for
- 17:42Speaker 17: a little while, we've been coexisting with a lot of pathogens.
- 17:47Speaker 1: We do have a.
- 17:48Speaker 17: Very evolved immune system, and generally speaking, that immune system
- 17:52Speaker 17: seems to work better when it's encountering natural pathogens than
- 17:58Speaker 17: when it is prompted by various vaccine products. But that
- 18:03Speaker 17: the there there is this logic that vaccines can do
- 18:10Speaker 17: no harm and that.
- 18:13Speaker 1: Lead that we could sue for the right.
- 18:17Speaker 17: And that they're absolutely necessary for every possible infectious disease threat.
- 18:23Speaker 1: That's doctor Robert Malone. You can find that interview. It's
- 18:27Speaker 1: much longer on my page under the Daily Signal Masthead
- 18:33Speaker 1: Daily Signal dot com. We published it. There was an
- 18:36Speaker 1: interview we broadcasted from our special live broadcast from Freedom Fest,
- 18:42Speaker 1: which was taking place in Palm Springs, California, which was
- 18:46Speaker 1: an experience to go to. But herein is the problem
- 18:52Speaker 1: is fear, fear as a motivator. And this ties into
- 18:57Speaker 1: the message stuff that we were talking about before. So
- 19:01Speaker 1: when a politician says people are poor, your fear reaction
- 19:07Speaker 1: is I don't want to be poor. I don't want
- 19:10Speaker 1: to have trouble paying my bills. So I'm gonna help
- 19:14Speaker 1: those people because you know, there, but for the grace
- 19:16Speaker 1: of God go I. And that's a reasonable thought. It's
- 19:19Speaker 1: been perverted by the gas lighters, just like the idea
- 19:24Speaker 1: that well, we've got instavacs. Now we've got these vaccine
- 19:27Speaker 1: templates that just hang around CDC thanks to doctor Malone's
- 19:32Speaker 1: mRNA research, and sure it'll kill some people, but some
- 19:35Speaker 1: people are gonna die anyway. And I really, truly I
- 19:38Speaker 1: don't mean to be glib about it, but that's the attitude.
- 19:43Speaker 1: Go back to the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act.
- 19:47Speaker 1: What did Paul Krugman tell Do we still have the clip?
- 19:51Speaker 1: I know? I insisted that we saved the Krugman clip
- 19:55Speaker 1: because you can't find it on the internet anymore. It
- 19:58Speaker 1: was on ABC this week Snuffle Up a Gifts had
- 20:01Speaker 1: taken the day off. It was a fill in host,
- 20:04Speaker 1: but it was right after Sarah Palin had said that
- 20:09Speaker 1: there were death panels in the Affordable Care Act business model,
- 20:14Speaker 1: and Paul Krugman was out there to say, oh, no, no,
- 20:20Speaker 1: there are no that's nutty. It's Sarah Palin, of course,
- 20:23Speaker 1: And how would we have saved it in the inventory.
- 20:30Speaker 1: I don't know if if we have it anymore, but
- 20:33Speaker 1: if we do, it was stunning. So Paul Krugman while
- 20:37Speaker 1: they while the staff goes and looks for the clip,
- 20:46Speaker 1: that the idea was that, oh, there are no death panels.
- 20:53Speaker 1: Certainly there are panels that will determine And this is
- 20:57Speaker 1: as close to quoting Paul Krugman as I can. Paul Kruman,
- 21:01Speaker 1: the economic architect of the Affordable Care Act, Certainly there
- 21:07Speaker 1: are going to be panels that will determine whether or
- 21:10Speaker 1: not somebody should qualify for particular expensive treatments. But they're
- 21:15Speaker 1: not death panels. So if you're told you don't qualify
- 21:23Speaker 1: for a certain expensive treatment and you die, it's not
- 21:26Speaker 1: the panel's fault. And that's that's sort of the attitude
- 21:30Speaker 1: that undergirds this, the vax trap that we're in, is that, oh, okay, well,
- 21:39Speaker 1: you know a couple of people had you know, a
- 21:41Speaker 1: couple of twenty year olds had massive coronaries on the
- 21:44Speaker 1: football field and died. That's a rounding error, you know,
- 21:48Speaker 1: it's just the you know, that's science, you know, and
- 21:52Speaker 1: and these are people's children. But the fear of the
- 21:55Speaker 1: greater COVID says, you know what, give me the shot.
- 21:59Speaker 1: I'll take the I'll take the risk.
- 22:02Speaker 9: Did you know that healthy arteries make a gas? Yes,
- 22:07Speaker 9: actually three known gas is I'm doctor Mitch, and nitric
- 22:12Speaker 9: oxide is a gas that's readily made all day long
- 22:17Speaker 9: to keep our arteries open by relaxing the blood vessel walls.
- 22:22Speaker 9: By doing this, our circulation is increased, bringing blood, oxygen
- 22:27Speaker 9: and nutrients to every part of your body. Both age
- 22:31Speaker 9: and poor diet can lead to a loss of this
- 22:35Speaker 9: precious gas, and in turn, blood pressure can go up,

- 24:31Speaker 9: The Mayo Clinic found that kurcumin can decrease swelling and inflammation,
- 24:36Speaker 9: has antioxidant properties, and research suggests that kurcumin can prevent
- 24:42Speaker 9: cancer or at least slow the spread of cancer, and
- 24:45Speaker 9: in many instances, make chemotherapy more effective. It protects our

- 28:15Speaker 2: Media Network.
- 28:18Speaker 1: Mary writes in don't worry, Joe, they'll issue a report
- 28:44Speaker 1: right after they issue the one on Epstein Island and
- 28:50Speaker 1: the Lolita Express. See this is what happens. See, you know,
- 28:57Speaker 1: we've grown to not trust. And they say, even the
- 29:01Speaker 1: Trump administration, even trumpets, we're going to look into these
- 29:05Speaker 1: COVID vaccines. Oh okay, just like you looked into the
- 29:09Speaker 1: Epstein files. And part of it, you know, in this
- 29:16Speaker 1: in this world of gas lighting, is a little Colonel jessup,
- 29:21Speaker 1: you can't handle the truth. Well, that's their belief that
- 29:26Speaker 1: you can't know what they know. They are medically those
- 29:33Speaker 1: men on the wall with guns or hypodermic needles in
- 29:39Speaker 1: this case, and that if you knew that China had
- 29:45Speaker 1: made a bio weapon, you might be a little salty
- 29:48Speaker 1: about it. Would you buy less Chinese made things if
- 29:56Speaker 1: you knew that China made a bio weapon? What if
- 29:59Speaker 1: you knew that that what you thought were rules against
- 30:03Speaker 1: bioweapons have big loopholes, saying, well, if you make a
- 30:06Speaker 1: bioweapon that's only just debilitating, that's okay. What if you
- 30:13Speaker 1: knew that. I mean, these are all unquestioned things. If
- 30:21Speaker 1: people push, you'll get well, you know that's not to you.
- 30:25Speaker 1: That's not the whole story. You'll get that. You know
- 30:27Speaker 1: you're not telling them the whole story. The the attitude
- 30:44Speaker 1: towards the American citizen and our ability to know things,
- 30:49Speaker 1: because they don't want you to know that we paid
- 30:53Speaker 1: China to help us make these bioweapons. Barack Obama for
- 31:01Speaker 1: some reason, and I think it was because he wanted
- 31:04Speaker 1: to help, you know, move some American money to China,
- 31:07Speaker 1: much in the same way now we're moving American money
- 31:10Speaker 1: to Ukraine. Where by the way, some of these other
- 31:13Speaker 1: labs that did what the Wuhan Institute of Virology existed unquestioned.
- 31:19Speaker 1: These are these facts are in evidence and not questioned,
- 31:22Speaker 1: your honor. What do they all add up to? That's
- 31:27Speaker 1: the that's where you and I sit with this and
- 31:30Speaker 1: now with the FDA investigating the clock shots. But doctor
- 31:36Speaker 1: Malone's cy war, if you read it, you realize there's
- 31:39Speaker 1: actually a legitimate reason that they wanted to create the
- 31:44Speaker 1: clock shots. And it's a chilling one. It's one that
- 31:50Speaker 1: makes actual sense. If you sit down and say, oh, well,
- 31:54Speaker 1: in a battlefield field hospital hospital, imagine if your mind's eye,
- 31:59Speaker 1: if your old to remember the TV show mash So,
- 32:02Speaker 1: You've got a field hospital out there in some sand
- 32:06Speaker 1: blown desert, and all of a sudden, all the soldiers
- 32:11Speaker 1: in your battalion start to get respiratory problems. Better get
- 32:18Speaker 1: the Oh, hold it, we've isolated what the virus is.
- 32:21Speaker 1: Give me the vaccine template. Drop it in there, and
- 32:25Speaker 1: I'll bet you with an autoclaver too, you could probably
- 32:28Speaker 1: produce it on the spot. You wouldn't even have to
- 32:30Speaker 1: send it to Romstein Air Force Base to be manufactured.
- 32:36Speaker 1: You get your soldiers back up on their feet, most
- 32:38Speaker 1: of them. Some of them might have adverse reactions, but
- 32:41Speaker 1: they were going to have adverse reactions anyway. They're soldiers.
- 32:44Speaker 1: They've signed up with the possibility that they're coming home
- 32:48Speaker 1: in a box. And when you hear it laid out
- 32:54Speaker 1: like that, you're like, oh my god, that's why they
- 32:57Speaker 1: did it. It goes add to that Joe Biden's rhetoric
- 33:02Speaker 1: of we all need to treat this like, you know,
- 33:07Speaker 1: like a battle that were waging against COVID. You're thinking, huh,
- 33:12Speaker 1: that's an interesting turn of a phrase, Joe, mister president.
- 33:19Speaker 1: And that's the part that you know you don't want
- 33:22Speaker 1: to know what was a bio weapon because you don't
- 33:24Speaker 1: want to know because we already know again facts already
- 33:27Speaker 1: in evidence that Tony take the shot, lead the leave
- 33:31Speaker 1: the Canoni. Fauci was sending American tax dollars to the
- 33:35Speaker 1: Wuhan Institute of Virology and they were using it for
- 33:41Speaker 1: the research. Now, is there a receipt that says that
- 33:47Speaker 1: money was paid to the doctor that was developing the
- 33:51Speaker 1: gain of function research that was going to be used
- 33:53Speaker 1: to create Star's Cove two and the giant, freaking nasty
- 33:58Speaker 1: little spiked ball attached doing the spike proteins. No, just
- 34:05Speaker 1: like US tax dollars go to Planned parenthood, and Planned
- 34:09Speaker 1: Parenthood says, well, we're not paying the abortion doctors with
- 34:13Speaker 1: American tax money. Wink wink. We're paying our electric bills
- 34:17Speaker 1: with it, we're paying our property leases with it, we're
- 34:22Speaker 1: paying our property taxes with it. All the other money
- 34:25Speaker 1: now we can use to pay the abortionist. But we're
- 34:28Speaker 1: not paying your tax dollars to them when Monsanto had
- 34:39Speaker 1: to pay that massive payout for taking and again you
- 34:44Speaker 1: can see the logic and saying, hey, we asked them
- 34:47Speaker 1: to create a defoliant because we were trying to fight
- 34:53Speaker 1: an army that was hiding in these densely overgrown jungles
- 34:58Speaker 1: and rainforests Vietnam. So Monsanto created a defoliant, did a
- 35:06Speaker 1: lot of other bad things, but we asked them for
- 35:08Speaker 1: a battlefield answer. And then when we came back, you know,
- 35:18Speaker 1: Monsando said, now what do we do with all this stuff?
- 35:20Speaker 1: We don't need agent orange and well diluted someone. We'll
- 35:23Speaker 1: kill weeds with it. They we didn't do it out
- 35:30Speaker 1: of malice of forethought, and maybe the Wuhan Institute of
- 35:36Speaker 1: Virology didn't do it out of malice of forethought. They
- 35:40Speaker 1: were just doing what we asked them to do. So
- 35:47Speaker 1: I think your dark text of you know, oh, okay,
- 35:52Speaker 1: we'll get an answer about this investigation into the COVID
- 35:56Speaker 1: vaccines right after we get the details on the jet
- 36:00Speaker 1: free Epstein investigation is not ill placed. I'd like it
- 36:08Speaker 1: to be better than that, So please you understand that
- 36:18Speaker 1: you know, it is a step and it needs to happen,
- 36:26Speaker 1: but we need to hold their feet to it. And yes,
- 36:30Speaker 1: this is the same government that told vaccine manufacturers that
- 36:35Speaker 1: will protect them as long as they do annual testing
- 36:39Speaker 1: on the safety of their vaccines. Problem is, they haven't
- 36:43Speaker 1: done any of the safety testing in the thirty odd
- 36:47Speaker 1: years since they got that protection. But they still get
- 36:50Speaker 1: the protection for some reason, because we're not very smart
- 36:53Speaker 1: when we write these laws and these protections four three
- 36:58Speaker 1: four eight A two four to two one.
- 38:01Speaker 20: At Hotshot Secret, we share the science behind common diesel

- 38:08Speaker 20: In many states, the setane rating and diesel fuel is
- 38:11Speaker 20: forty two to forty five. Most diesel engines operate more
- 38:14Speaker 20: efficiently with the cetane rating of forty eight to fifty one.

- 38:20Speaker 20: seatane seven points, increase fuel economy, and improve cold starts.

- 44:44Speaker 5: Prices for healthcare, prices for energy, prices for building supplies,
- 44:49Speaker 5: prices for food.
- 44:51Speaker 1: I mean all these things that I've made more expensive
- 44:54Speaker 1: through my votes and my policies. Maurice writes in and
- 45:00Speaker 1: why don't people like you run for office? Joe, You
- 45:03Speaker 1: seem to be able to make these because, first off,
- 45:10Speaker 1: we've tried, and there are some folks who are successful
- 45:14Speaker 1: at it. I think our guest last yesterday, John Reid,
- 45:17Speaker 1: is a good example of somebody who who won a
- 45:20Speaker 1: lot more support in a state that didn't even know
- 45:24Speaker 1: who he was at first. Because one of the things
- 45:26Speaker 1: that radio people fall on their face on is that
- 45:30Speaker 1: we we look at being wildly popular on the radio
- 45:36Speaker 1: and it's not the same as being electorally widely popular.
- 45:41Speaker 1: And we have to work back to a place where
- 45:45Speaker 1: we're picking people like us to go into these offices,
- 45:49Speaker 1: not people who have you know, sponsors if you will,
- 45:54Speaker 1: There and that's why you get you know, guys like
- 45:56Speaker 1: Tim Kaine and bless him. You know, you need more
- 45:59Speaker 1: people me messaging for the conservatives because the Conservatives stumble
- 46:05Speaker 1: and fumble across how to deal with economic problems. And
- 46:11Speaker 1: Maurice's text comes in after I'd kind of gone through,
- 46:14Speaker 1: and there's a great organization, believe it or not, led
- 46:17Speaker 1: by Democrats. Two of my favorite Democrats, Frank Scuillacci and
- 46:23Speaker 1: Ridge Skyler, started an operation. It was a pilot program
- 46:27Speaker 1: called Network to Work in which they did that exact thing,
- 46:30Speaker 1: and I would have them on every week. Ridge Skyler
- 46:33Speaker 1: was chief of staff for the Congressman Tom Perriello that
- 46:37Speaker 1: we were talking about yesterday. But he saw the problem
- 46:41Speaker 1: was that people didn't know how to monetize what they
- 46:45Speaker 1: were good at. So let's figure out a way to
- 46:47Speaker 1: get them the job, training and that kind of stuff.
- 46:49Speaker 1: And it worked. And I don't have a problem celebrating
- 46:53Speaker 1: a Democrat that comes up with that. It was flipping
- 46:56Speaker 1: brilliant and they're still running it. It's through the local
- 47:00Speaker 1: community college system. And anyway, enough about me, let's talk
- 47:04Speaker 1: about you. What do you think of me? Uh? Four
- 47:07Speaker 1: three four eight eight two four two one seven is
- 47:10Speaker 1: our number first thing this morning with Joe. Who's this?
- 47:14Speaker 24: Good morning, Joe, this is your buddy, Lawrence went, Oh,
- 47:19Speaker 24: former congressional candidate whose big political victory in his life
- 47:23Speaker 24: was eking out a Democrat Party nomination over none of
- 47:28Speaker 24: the above.
- 47:28Speaker 1: I love it. Good to hear from you. This is
- 47:30Speaker 1: a this is a whole week of ex congressional candidates
- 47:34Speaker 1: on the program Tom Perry Ello. Yesterday Lawrence went, this morning, there,
- 47:39Speaker 1: how are you doing, buddy?
- 47:42Speaker 23: Well, I also beat out on honesty and ethics. Flashat
- 47:45Speaker 23: flesh eating bacteria.
- 47:47Speaker 1: Don't forget that's that's right, that's right, It would consume all.
- 47:52Speaker 1: So what's going on?
- 47:54Speaker 23: Well, you know, I went on.
- 47:55Speaker 24: A little retreat and I don't mind.
- 47:59Speaker 23: Expanding kind of you know, taking the ganja.
- 48:02Speaker 1: Doing oh yes, you know, kind.
- 48:06Speaker 24: Of exploring the outer reaches of.
- 48:09Speaker 23: Just consciousness. And I come back and I'm not sure
- 48:13Speaker 23: that I'm not hallucinating because I'm seeing these ads on
- 48:17Speaker 23: my phone from a Virginia of Alcohol Beverage Control featuring
- 48:23Speaker 23: an alcohol drinking raccoon, and I'm thinking, wait a second,
- 48:28Speaker 23: how much of that stuff exactly did I take? And
- 48:31Speaker 23: then I find out after speaking for a few days,
- 48:34Speaker 23: I realized, wait a second, this is real.
- 48:37Speaker 24: So let me get this straight.
- 48:39Speaker 23: The Virginia government agency is actually promoting the sale of
- 48:44Speaker 23: alcohol by.
- 48:45Speaker 24: Depicting a raccoon drinking. And I thought to myself, Man, when.
- 48:49Speaker 23: I was thirteen fourteen, the first thing I want to
- 48:52Speaker 23: do after seeing that he's got my buddies together and
- 48:55Speaker 23: get a raccoon drunk to And I thought, I gotta
- 49:00Speaker 23: called Joe, because when lords Witch is the sanest voice
- 49:04Speaker 23: in the room, the cultures did.
- 49:06Speaker 24: A real problem.
- 49:07Speaker 1: Yeah, you and kidding. You are not kidding, No, that
- 49:10Speaker 1: really happened though. Again raccoon broke into our liquor store,
- 49:14Speaker 1: uh and knocked over a bunch of the hooch, lapped
- 49:18Speaker 1: it up and passed out in the bathroom of the
- 49:21Speaker 1: liquor store. Yes, and you're right. Now. They have T shirts.
- 49:24Speaker 1: It's called trash Panda. Is the is the T shirt?
- 49:28Speaker 1: You can get them from the Virginia ABC. And and
- 49:32Speaker 1: you know what's amazing to me is Peta hasn't jumped
- 49:35Speaker 1: in on this, especially since the Virginia ABC has run
- 49:38Speaker 1: for a few more days. Anyway, by a Republican governor.
- 49:43Speaker 23: Well, you know, I'm all of about solutions I ran
- 49:47Speaker 23: for Congress. Some of my solutions were a little crazy,
- 49:50Speaker 23: but I come up with Now, I'm gonna start my
- 49:52Speaker 23: first social justice organization called People for the Ethical Treatment
- 49:57Speaker 23: of Raccoons, and we're going to to stand up to
- 50:01Speaker 23: defend raccoons against being mascots for alcohol. I mean, you know,
- 50:06Speaker 23: I don't know much about the toxicity of this stuff,
- 50:09Speaker 23: but I know that if you give a dog or
- 50:11Speaker 23: a cat or whatever alcohol on Joe or the magic mushrooms,
- 50:17Speaker 23: this can really wreak havoc with the system.
- 50:19Speaker 1: How would you hear know that?
- 50:22Speaker 24: Yeah?
- 50:23Speaker 23: You know, they they there's articles look up. You know,
- 50:26Speaker 23: dog consumes marijuana and it becomes a real problem, you know,
- 50:31Speaker 23: And it's like, here's Lawrence Wentz. You know, they called
- 50:34Speaker 23: me crazy. They kicked me out of the local Democrat
- 50:38Speaker 23: party for being crazy, and I'm the one who's saving
- 50:40Speaker 23: the raccoons.
- 50:42Speaker 1: So is your is the acronym of of your organization
- 50:46Speaker 1: Peter uh? And do you have Peter principles?
- 50:51Speaker 23: Well, you know that's a whole separate thing. I'm trying
- 50:54Speaker 23: to work my way through that.
- 50:55Speaker 1: Right all right, Okay, well you should you should consider
- 50:58Speaker 1: having Peter principle, or maybe a slogan like you can't
- 51:02Speaker 1: beat the Peter or something along those lines.
- 51:06Speaker 24: There you good, There you go.
- 51:07Speaker 23: I'm still recovering from my little retreats, so.
- 51:12Speaker 1: That's easy. Somebody opened the.
- 51:16Speaker 23: And and Merry Christmas to you and the first lady
- 51:20Speaker 23: and the old Thomas clan. That's you know, I'm away
- 51:26Speaker 23: from politically correct.
- 51:28Speaker 1: This is why they kicked you out. I think this
- 51:30Speaker 1: is this is proof as to why you're a recovering Democrat. Lawrence. Well,
- 51:34Speaker 1: I appreciate it, my friend. Merry Christmas to you as well.
- 51:38Speaker 1: You have a good day, brother, I doubt to save
- 51:41Speaker 1: the raccoons from the the meanies in the government trying
- 51:44Speaker 1: to get them drunk. Last last moment here we were
- 51:48Speaker 1: talking about messaging and why it seems like we're having
- 51:52Speaker 1: such a problem with messaging. Let's not remember, let's not
- 51:56Speaker 1: forget to remember the patron saint of it all.
- 52:00Speaker 23: Republicans actually blame you personally for the way Congress and
- 52:05Speaker 23: Washington in general has gotten so highly partisan in the
- 52:08Speaker 23: last couple of years.
- 52:10Speaker 25: That's interesting. I serve as a whip for a long time,
- 52:13Speaker 25: and the Republicans were a few saving their praise for me.
- 52:18Speaker 12: That was before he used the Senate floor to go
- 52:21Speaker 12: after GOP mega donors, the Koch Brothers and accuse Mitt
- 52:24Speaker 12: Romney of not paying his taxes with nonense.
- 52:28Speaker 25: But I'm prove that he has paid taxes because he hasn't. No,
- 52:31Speaker 25: I don't regret that at all. The Coke brothers, no
- 52:34Speaker 25: one would help me. They were afraid the Coke Brothers
- 52:36Speaker 25: would go after them. So I did it on my own.
- 52:39Speaker 1: And he said, well, Mitt Romney didn't get elected. That's
- 52:42Speaker 1: the godfather of today's politics. Until tomorrow. I'm Joe Thomas,
- 52:47Speaker 1: So long and thanks for all the fish.
- 52:51Speaker 12: Crime across the country is at an all time high.
- 52:54Speaker 12: It feels like even a family road trip is taking
