- 0:09Speaker 1: The first thing today by Joe Thomas on the Dunk
- 0:13Media Network.
- 0:14Speaker 3: There should never be more in likeliness, we finally have
- 0:18her saying that George.
- 0:20Speaker 4: Said, steal met a day at least for work.
- 0:25Speaker 5: When the sun comes up, drops a pet to school,
- 0:30joys a gender all the jos needs.
- 0:35Speaker 6: No one that Josh is smile, He only is.
- 0:42Speaker 7: Joe.
- 0:43Speaker 4: Thank you for letting me be of service to you.
- 0:45This morning, somebody pointed out to me that Abigail Spanberger's
- 0:53problem in the polls is all the Democrats that have
- 0:57abandoned her campaign because she said that, well, you know
- 1:01a lot of middle aged women abandoned Terry mcculliff's campaign
- 1:09when you said parents had no right to get involved
- 1:12in what their kids were learning in school. So there
- 1:15you have it. Sports fans appreciate you joining us so
- 1:18this morning at four three four eight eight two four
- 1:22two one seven that's the phone number. Emails come into
- 1:25JT in the Morning Radio at gmail dot com, where
- 1:29we tell you what happened. Obviously, you need to know that,
- 1:32but then we discuss how it's impacting you where you are,
- 1:36because that's the most important part of this whole thing.
- 1:38You are the singularly most important local part of your
- 1:42radio station. You and if they're not telling you that,
- 1:46they're trying to misdirect you somewhere and we all we
- 1:50all want to have our own importance. Uh There, Finally
- 1:54the quiet part is said out loud, and I wrote
- 1:59a piece and it probably will publish later today at
- 2:03Daily Signal dot com about why again this debate performance
- 2:13with Abigail Spanberger and Winsome Sears and Jack Chatterrelli and
- 2:17Mikey Cheryl in New Jersey are probably going to spell
- 2:22the end of debates. And it's not for the right reason, obviously,
- 2:31It's because these political candidates don't want to do that.
- 2:38So Mikey Cheryl is in huge trouble in New Jersey
- 2:42because all the things she accused Jack Chatderelli of were
- 2:46things that the Biden administration had asked them to do,
- 2:52or were just simply articles about medicine that she is
- 2:58extrapolating because they mentioned the word opioid. So desperate is
- 3:02she to hold on to this position again as I
- 3:05said to John reading the last segment, indicative of a
- 3:09power structure that has grown way out of skew with
- 3:14what it should be, because these are people who aren't
- 3:17out there to protect your rights, to secure your rights. Well,
- 3:22the left only listens to that little bit of John Locke.
- 3:28It says, well, if we secure the rights, then we
- 3:31can tell you which ones we're going to secure or not.
- 3:34And that's not the way it works. And it's totality.
- 3:38It's the God given rights of life, liberty, and property.
- 3:45They want to make it. You have a right to
- 3:47a place to live, and you have a right to
- 3:50somebody treating your medical conditions, and you have a right
- 3:53to food in your refrigerator, and all those things that
- 3:56require other people to work for you, which, if you
- 4:00read John Locke, is an abomination on liberty at slavery
- 4:05is what it is. So technically the party that was
- 4:08for slavery in the first place after the Civil War
- 4:11is still subborting slavery. Discuss four three four eight eight
- 4:16two four two one seven. President Trump in Egypt after
- 4:21his historic visit to the Knesset yesterday morning, which we
- 4:26broadcasted for you live and you can hear it on
- 4:29our podcast. Channels told a summit of world leaders and
- 4:34met with them. Egyptian president told them that this peace
- 4:38proposal is the last chance for peace in the region.
- 4:43He did reiterate something that Marco Rubio even talked about,
- 4:46which is a Palestinian state he seeks. President Trump is
- 4:53looking to advance the piece. He said, Phase two has started,
- 4:57and you know, the phases are all a little bit
- 5:00mixed in with each other. He said he's ready to
- 5:02meet with the leaders and represents from thirty five nations
- 5:05to advance the peace movement. Speaking of the president and meetings,
- 5:10word comes from the White House that on Friday, Voladimir
- 5:14Zelenski will be at the White House. No word if
- 5:16there'll be any tomahawks hanging around in the backyard, not
- 5:20the ones that you see at Atlanta Braves Games, but
- 5:23the ones that the President has said if Putin doesn't
- 5:26come to the table, he may have to send to Kiev.
- 5:33Scott Bessen, Treasury Secretary, says the shutdown is starting to
- 5:38have an impact on the economy. This is getting serious.
- 5:43He said, it's starting to affect the real economy. But
- 5:46he also said in a visit to Fox News that
- 5:49President Trump will be sitting down with Chinese chairman Ushijingping
- 5:56in South Korea to de escalate tensions over trade disputes.
- 6:04In a related story, Denmark based company of the Nation
- 6:10of Denmark has taken over a Chinese chip making technology
- 6:15company that resides within its country to ensure that the
- 6:19chips continue to flow even though China is threatening shutdowns
- 6:25and slowdowns. And as a sad after thought to the
- 6:29peace deal, President Joe Biden and Anthony Blinken both inferred
- 6:36responsibility for the peace deal. President Biden wrote, the road
- 6:40to this deal was not easy, and Blincoln wrote, it's
- 6:44good that President Trump adopted and built on the plan
- 6:47the Biden administration developed over months. Those are our first
- 6:52things on this Tuesday morning. Thank you for letting us
- 6:55be of service to you. And happy birthday to Charlie
- 6:58Kirk in Heaven.
- 7:01Speaker 8: A few years ago, my youngest son had something minor
- 7:05turned into something very major in a matter of hours.
- 7:07Speaker 4: It was Medishare that came through for us and there
- 7:10was no hassles, there was no problem.
- 7:12Speaker 8: That's what's so wonderful about knowing that you're a part
- 7:15of such an incredible ministry.
- 7:17Speaker 9: Meta share is a biblical approach to healthcare where Christians
- 7:21share each other's medical expenses.
- 7:23Speaker 5: Medishare is a family, a group of people that stick
- 7:27with you through the hardest times of your life.
- 7:30Speaker 9: Metashare isn't insurance. It's a nonprofit ministry over thirty years
- 7:34old and members have shared over eight billion dollars of
- 7:37each other's medical bills.
- 7:38Speaker 10: We don't have to spend so much on health insurance.
- 7:41You can focus on on supporting other people.
- 7:43Speaker 4: Medashare is affordable.
- 7:45Speaker 9: Medishare is biblical.
- 7:46Speaker 3: Medishare is family.
- 7:47Speaker 9: Join thousands of Christians who can help you save on
- 7:50your healthcare and support your family when you need it.

- 7:58That's eight five five forty.
- 8:03Speaker 7: Did you know that healthy arteries make a gas? Yes?
- 8:08Actually three known gas is I'm doctor Mitch, and nitric
- 8:13oxide is a gas that's readily made all day long
- 8:18to keep our arteries open by relaxing the blood vessel walls.

- 8:28and nutrients to every part of your body. Both age
- 8:32and poor diet can lead to a loss of this
- 8:36precious gas, and in turn, blood pressure can go up,
- 8:39energy can go down, and you can get tingling in
- 8:42your hands and feet.

- 11:16to help feed his little sisters. Or a mother who's
- 11:20in between jobs and sometimes goes to bed hungry so
- 11:23her kids can have dinner. Or a fourteen year old
- 11:26girl who signs up to every after.
- 11:28Speaker 7: School activity not to make friends, but just to get

- 13:12Speaker 1: Making mornings great again. First Thing Today on the Talk
- 13:16Media Network by Joe Thomas, Damn Dog.
- 13:19Speaker 19: We're all afraid to speak the truth, and the more
- 13:20afraid we get, the more we hate the ones who do.
- 13:22Speaker 10: You're ashamed to be American?
- 13:24Speaker 4: Okay, that's cool, because honestly we are all ashamed of
- 13:27you Tube. They are so.
- 13:31Speaker 7: The forecast the South.
- 13:34Speaker 4: So the most important word from this program standpoint, and
- 13:38since I am this program mine is the most important
- 13:43word in American history is the word there In taking
- 13:49Locke's philosophy on human liberty, on individual freedom, Jefferson wrote
- 13:57in our legal filing under attempt to legally emancipate ourselves
- 14:05from Great Britain's rule under their own law of Magna carta,
- 14:10he wrote, we hold these truths to be self evident,
- 14:16that all men are created equal, and that they are
- 14:19endowed by their creator with certain unalienable rights. I bring
- 14:30this up because Joel sent me a screen cap, a
- 14:34screen cap of a screencap. You know, things start to
- 14:37get good if you've ever been to an old school
- 14:40barber shop with mirrors on both sides of the room
- 14:44and you look down that feedback loop of mirror reflecting mirror,
- 14:48reflecting mirror, reflecting mirror. This often can be what the
- 14:53Internet is. And this is why I get so afraid
- 14:55of what the folks at artificial intelligence are learning. Because
- 14:59AI is out, they're learning from what it sees on
- 15:03the Internet. Is it any wonder We've already had to
- 15:07reboot chattp once because it went Nazi on us. So
- 15:17the question Joel asks is based on this post. That
- 15:22was a screencap of a post out of Canada regarding
- 15:26schools banning ham sandwiches. And we'll get into that in
- 15:29a moment while you ruminate on the idea of schools
- 15:33banning an entire type of food, and why would they
- 15:37do such a thing, and why would Joe Thomas bring
- 15:40up Jefferson's use of the word there. But I was
- 15:48one of the quick note. Our friend James is finishing
- 15:51up a getaway for Columbus Day weekend. But he asked
- 15:53me to tell you what's going on at jcsgold dot
- 15:57com and silver is comfy now comfy over fifty dollars
- 16:03an ounce. Silver down almost a dollar since yesterday. It's
- 16:08at fifty one dollars and forty four cents as we speak,
- 16:13gold comfy over four thousand dollars an ounce forty one,
- 16:18thirty four and thirty nine. What does that due to
- 16:23Christmas jewelry purchases all sorts of I was reading a
- 16:29piece about all these jewelry manufacturers trying to come up
- 16:32with inexpensive products to put into their rings and their
- 16:36bangles and baubles in order to extend and then just
- 16:40plating it in gold irons with God. The seventies were
- 16:43like that too. Everything was gold plated, nothing was made
- 16:47of gold, Everything was gold plated. So back to the
- 16:51ham sandwich. The gold plated internet meme and I went
- 16:55searching at Joel's post because it's a guy, apparently a
- 17:03guy from Calgary, which is Western Canada. It's sort of like,
- 17:07you know, imagine an Idaho or Montana town a little
- 17:12bit bigger than that, maybe maybe a Denver kind of thing,
- 17:19little wild West, little oil and his name, as the
- 17:26folks at the Times of India have been able to
- 17:29figure out as David de Wolf. Some parents his post rights.
- 17:35Some parents are writing emails to the teachers saying that
- 17:39there are Canadian kids showing up with bacon and ham
- 17:42in their sandwiches and that's offensive to their religion. Just
- 17:46imagine that for a second. It's a school, not a
- 17:50refugee camp. This is Canada, understand, and we don't have
- 17:55enough Canadian programming to be considered a Canadian program. So
- 17:59if we're leaking in out of it's at Salt Point, Idaho.
- 18:07We've got a couple of border towns. There's a Montana
- 18:11town right by the Canadian border. So if we're leaking in,
- 18:13I don't want to offend, I don't want to put
- 18:17you out, but they you know, sometimes I just can't
- 18:21help myself. But no, so to our Canadian brethren who
- 18:25are listening across the border appreciate it, but so far
- 18:30no one's been able to find the actual letters to
- 18:33the school. Calgary school officials are denying that there is
- 18:38any ban. And as I go through this, just answer
- 18:43your question about this, Joel, it appears to me and
- 18:47this is just experience that somebody has suggested such a
- 18:55restriction on the type of sandwiches that are served at
- 18:59the school. Perhaps you can bring a ham sandwich, but
- 19:03the school isn't going to provide one. This goes back
- 19:07again Canada, different set of rules. I know most of
- 19:12them speak similar language to Americans, but different set of rules.
- 19:19They don't have the separation of church and states, so
- 19:23the protesters can gather around and say the state is
- 19:29enforcing some dogma or whatever. And you've got the progressives
- 19:35that want to hand ring. And some of it is
- 19:40exemplar of what you see here in the United States
- 19:45with more authority, because Canada has more governmental authority over
- 19:49some of this stuff. But I think it's a master's
- 19:51class and why you need to have a robust choice
- 19:55program so that you don't have to go to the
- 19:57government schools. Do I think that a government school could
- 20:03adopt such a ban in Canada. Sure, in the United States,
- 20:08I think depending on the place, Yeah, I could see
- 20:12New York City schools or Charlottesville schools adopting such a
- 20:16resolution saying, you know, it offends our Muslim students. And
- 20:23I don't think the Muslim community is actually behind this.
- 20:30There may be a family member or something like that
- 20:33who's out there trying to get some Sharia courts started,
- 20:38like they have in Minnesota. But I think if I
- 20:45look at this, this is playing out in many ways
- 20:48in my experience, that somebody had brought it up at
- 20:51a school board meeting or sent a letter that was
- 20:54read at a school board meeting, and it's turned into
- 20:57a mailstrom. Now does that mean it's not going to happen. No,
- 21:01this is just the beginning of the Overton window moving
- 21:06this at the beginning of normalizing it. You say something
- 21:09that's crazy, like we think we should have boys in
- 21:12girls' bathrooms. I think we should allow boys to play
- 21:18girls sports, those kind of things, and you say, well
- 21:22that's nuts, but you discuss it, and then in that
- 21:27discussion you have normalized it. That's how they drag you
- 21:34through the Overton window, and just having a sandwich available
- 21:41on a school lunch menu is not enforcing dogma. But
- 21:44unfortunately you have elected officials who are so discourageous as
- 21:49to cow to that kind of thing. But I think
- 21:53this is at the very early days of opening the
- 21:56Overton window to begin such a discussion.
- 21:59Speaker 6: Joel, Business owners, are you paying high phone bills for

- 27:28Speaker 14: Yeah?

- 28:12Speaker 1: For you from Joe Thomas. Its first thing today.
- 28:33Speaker 4: So the draft you're feeling is somebody left the Overton
- 28:37window open on the border. We mentioned this earlier. My
- 28:43dear friend Tom Carrott, former congressman and a now member
- 28:47of Virginia's General Assembly, the longest running, continuously operating elected
- 28:53representative body on the planet, esteemed for his ability to
- 29:01be well, as they used to say in the old
- 29:03Murder Mysteries, a blunt object. Why do they do it?
- 29:07Speaker 18: J T?
- 29:08Speaker 4: Because it works? Why do they ask for crazy stuff?
- 29:14Because eventually enough people talk about the crazy stuff and
- 29:18it happens. I'm going to subject you to some cruelty
- 29:25to snap you out of a post Columbus Day fugue.
- 29:29We ate some Stromboli and played a little Botchie, I'm sure,
- 29:33and they're in little Losagna for breakfast. I understand it's
- 29:38very good the next morning. But I'm going to subject
- 29:42you to a little Nicole Wallace and Joe Rogan and
- 29:46Marjorie Taylor Green, because long enough have people like Nicole Wallace,
- 29:53And I'm going to play the opening and just imagine
- 29:55what would happen to a guy like me if I
- 29:57went into such a screed as Nicole Wallace at the
- 30:03anchor Desk under the nbcpeacock wanders out in this screed,
- 30:13if I was so fact challenged in something I said
- 30:17half of you would be writing to me saying, I
- 30:19don't know, Joe, be careful of what you're saying.
- 30:23Speaker 24: Then loud public descent from inside his coalition from prominent
- 30:28MAGA influencers might be the thing that will melt his
- 30:32carefully crafted, alternative fact based reality faster than the wicked
- 30:36Witch in The Wizard of Oz. And that is exactly
- 30:39what is starting to happen with his brutal and ugly
- 30:43and clunky and wildly unpopular mass deportation scheme.
- 30:48Speaker 4: Notice some of the words she doesn't use, like illegal, unconstitutional,
- 30:54or unjust. There's a wonderful turn of a phrase. Douglas
- 31:00Adams uses it in The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy,
- 31:05which by the way, is the source material for my
- 31:07salutation at the end of the program, so long and
- 31:10thanks for all the fish. But in it he's referring
- 31:15to something and the phrase he uses is it's a
- 31:18very popular fact. And the phrase is so subtle you
- 31:22almost miss it the first three or four times you
- 31:24read the book, and it's like, hold it. Facts don't
- 31:27need to be popular or not. But that's what Nicole
- 31:31Wallace is talking about, popular fact versus fact fact.
- 31:36Speaker 24: The sight and the sound and the smells of heavily
- 31:39armed federal agents sweeping up people with no criminal records,
- 31:43everyone from grandma's to kids with arrest everywhere, from outside
- 31:48of schools to outside of bakeries.
- 31:49Speaker 4: Even even without a criminal history except breaking a law
- 31:55to get into the country. But of course, Joe Biden
- 31:58created the Biden smart app for people without any income.
- 32:02But they stopped at that rest area that there's millions
- 32:06of videos of that. You're still told under the gas
- 32:09light doesn't exist. But anyway, back to ms Wallace, who
- 32:15every now and then starts to look more like Mike than.
- 32:17Speaker 3: Anything, but to a marine base.
- 32:20Speaker 24: The sights and sounds are proving to be too much
- 32:23for arguably the most influential podcaster in the MAGA Adjacent universe.
- 32:29Speaker 4: Maga Adjacent I just just you want to sit there
- 32:33and say, I mean, you know, how much are they
- 32:35paying you for this? Because I can't imagine her even
- 32:38being able to brush her teeth, because I wouldn't be
- 32:41able to look myself in the eye and be so
- 32:44disingenuous about somebody. I don't care if I like Abigail
- 32:48Spanberger or Mikey Cheryl, you know they are who they are,
- 32:54and they're human beings and we can disagree. I don't
- 32:57want them to have any power over me, but Nicole
- 33:02Wallace is just I mean, it's like listening to Billy
- 33:04May's sell Oxy Clean. I'm sorry I interrupted too long ago.
- 33:09Here's the way it looks is horrific.
- 33:13Speaker 25: It looks when you're just arresting people in front of
- 33:17their kids and just normal, regular people that have been
- 33:20here for.
- 33:21Speaker 19: Twenty years that everybody who has a heart can't get
- 33:25along with that.
- 33:28Speaker 4: Why do they do it? JT? Because it works? And Tom,
- 33:32I know you're listening, so don't even pretend you're not.
- 33:37Why do they do it JT? Because it works? Are
- 33:45you arresting people who have broken the law? Anyone feel
- 33:49like weighing in on that? What would Joe Rogan's answer
- 33:55be if we found some school teacher who who had
- 34:00been engaging in not even child pornography. Maybe the child
- 34:04pornography started it, and then after a bit, you know,
- 34:08it became activities like you know, I'm around a bunch
- 34:11of these kids, and we've had arrest like that right
- 34:13here in our flagship area. School teachers arrested for touchy
- 34:19feely sessions with kids in middle school arrested in front
- 34:27of their children? Are we hand ringing about that? Drug
- 34:38dealers arrested in front of their children? Are we hand
- 34:41ringing about that? How do you get dragged through this
- 34:48overton window? Because presence has replaced citizenship. From where I sit,
- 34:55your results can vary, But this is what I see
- 34:58we've allowed, and guys like Orogan and Marjorie Taylor Green
- 35:02are becoming victims of this. The rampant populism of I'm here,
- 35:10I'm near, deal with it has replaced I'm a citizen
- 35:16of this country? Do we agree? And this becomes one
- 35:24of the most insidious arguments I've ever come across. In
- 35:27this I'll warn you about it because they'll throw your
- 35:31conservatism back in your face.
- 35:34Speaker 19: Don't you conservative constitutional LARPers? Don't you all think that
- 35:40all men are created equal and endowed with rights? Huh huh, yeah,
- 35:46yeah we do, and that to secure these rights, governments
- 35:51are instituted amongst men, deriving their just powers from the governed.
- 35:56Speaker 4: That is citizenship. But when Biden opened the borders for
- 36:06four years and allowed millions and millions of people in here,
- 36:10you knew, you knew and if you voted for Donald Trump,
- 36:14you knew we played and we had Tom Homan on
- 36:17this program. Do you want I have right next to
- 36:20Charlie Kirk on his birthday? In all of my archives,
- 36:23I have dozens of visits where Tom Holman has been
- 36:26on this program talking about what is not what good?
- 36:30But what is going to happen if Trump is re
- 36:33elected in twenty twenty four, and it is what is
- 36:37going on? People who are not supposed to be in
- 36:40this country because they're not citizens are being sent back
- 36:43to where they are citizens. And if there's a case
- 36:49where they're in grave danger, is there any other kind,
- 36:57then we have other locations to them at while we
- 37:01adjudicate their claims justice. But like Rocky Balboa punching Apollo
- 37:16Creed's ribcage over and over and over and over and
- 37:19over again until his arms fall, the Marxists have been
- 37:29beating on our defenses and voices are like, I just
- 37:34don't like the look of this, and I don't like
- 37:36the look of people not being here legally and accessing
- 37:41all the rights and defenses and civil liberties that a
- 37:45free citizen should have. I don't like it. I want
- 37:50them to be citizens if you want to be in
- 37:52this country that badly for all the liberties we have,
- 37:55let's work on that it works.

- 39:04Speaker 7: Considered by most optimized curcumin is one of the few
- 39:08bioavailable and highly absorbable curcumin products on the market. I
- 39:13am doctor Mitch. Since most chronic diseases have inflammation, our
- 39:19optimized curcumin seems to be a perfect addition to any
- 39:23nutritional program. It makes sense to me that preventing or
- 39:27reducing inflammation is a key component to our overall health.
- 39:32The Mayo Clinic found that kurcumin can decrease swelling and inflammation,
- 39:37has antioxidant properties, and research suggests that kurcumin can prevent
- 39:43cancer or at least slow the spread of cancer, and
- 39:46in many instances, make chemotherapy more effective. It protects our
- 39:51healthy cells even from radiation. Totalwellness dot com where we

- 41:01up on a farm in Tennessee, I've been fascinated with animals.
- 41:05I'm not only in awe of their beauty and kindness,
- 41:07but also their tireless work ethic. Just look at the
- 41:09birds who gather supplies to build nests, or Swiss foxes
- 41:13who work hard to provide for their young, or penguins
- 41:15who travel up to five hundred miles to secure food
- 41:18for their families, or bush babies whose impressive jump allows
- 41:21them to navigate the trees and the wild in search
- 41:23of fruit. This remarkable work ethic is shared by our
- 41:26best friends, the canines. We know dogs are wonderful pets
- 41:30at home, but because of their acute senses, they also
- 41:33perform life saving work every day.
- 41:35Speaker 10: Dogs keep us safe at airports.
- 41:36Speaker 27: They comfort returning veterans, some of whom suffer from PTSS.
- 41:39They work with diabetics, alerting them when there's a change.
- 41:42Speaker 10: In their blood chemistry.
- 41:43Speaker 27: Working dogs have a variety of highly trained roles that
- 41:46contribute to society and help those in need. So please

- 42:05Speaker 18: And now a speech.
- 42:07Speaker 16: I just want to say that friendship is about heart,
- 42:11heart and brain.
- 42:12Speaker 10: Who's with me?
- 42:13Speaker 9: Good thing is he knows when he's buzzed.
- 42:15Speaker 16: And my brain is saying when it's time to go home.
- 42:18Speaker 17: Somebody call me a ride.
- 42:20Speaker 3: Love that guy, me too.
- 42:21Speaker 5: Know your buzzed warning signs, call for a ride when
- 42:24it's time to go home. Buzz driving is drunk driving.

- 44:12Speaker 2: The question was should transgender girls who are biological males
- 44:16be allowed to use girls'.
- 44:17Speaker 10: Bathrooms and play on girl sports teams?
- 44:19Speaker 1: The First Thing Today by Joe Thomas on the Tunk
- 44:23Media Network.
- 44:24Speaker 9: There should never be in lackness.
- 44:27Speaker 10: We finally have her saying that.
- 44:30Speaker 4: There is is that her Terry mcculloff moment, so well practiced.
- 44:37Abigail Spanberger was trying to ignore winsome Sears. Eventually the
- 44:43moderators took up for the Republican Lieutenant governor and she
- 44:52gave in. And you could hear after forty five minutes
- 44:57calculating who am I going to offend more by saying this?
- 45:06And she decided to have now, being slick, she didn't
- 45:11say trans she nude men. That's a specific statement that
- 45:18she can walk back from. Charles Charles writes in, because
- 45:23you know, we see their poll numbers cratering, and that
- 45:28the and I'm sure it's somebody down at Roanoke College
- 45:32or Christopher Newport University has been told, go get me
- 45:36a poll that shows she's up by twenty points again.
- 45:39So that'll be coming soon. Charles writes in, come on, man,
- 45:44what's that old quote? He's a bastard, but he's our bastard. Yeah,
- 45:49But there's there's a different ethos in the activist class.
- 45:57That's an abandonment right there, that's abandoning the Rainbow Warriors,
- 46:11because I mean, in a world where Nick Fointes or
- 46:14Candace Owens can go on a rant because Donald Trump
- 46:18acknowledged that Jews exists and that he isn't going to
- 46:21wipe them out from the planet and make the world
- 46:24safe for Christians and only Christians again, and every nutcluster
- 46:30that's out there trying to ride Charlie Kirk's heaven bound
- 46:35coattails into their own self aggrandizement. I grow weary of them,
- 46:45the activists on the left. It's all trans or nothing,
- 46:51and Spamburger is calculus after forty five minutes of trying
- 46:56to dodge. The point is simply this. They're not that
- 47:05large of a population in the Democratic Party.
- 47:08Speaker 9: But there should never be.
- 47:11Speaker 10: In lackodness. We finally have her saying that.
- 47:17Speaker 4: But here's the problem for Spanberger. Yes, the number of
- 47:21nude men that want to dress like women and go
- 47:24into women's bathrooms are is about as high a population
- 47:30amongst Democrats in America and Virginia as there are lumberjacks
- 47:36wink to my mighty Python fans. As a matter of fact,
- 47:44Virginia is quite logging country. We may have more lumberjacks
- 47:48than we have men who like to wear high heels.
- 47:54Suspenders and a bra. But what she fails to count
- 48:03on are all the do gooders, as Ronald Reagan called them,
- 48:06all the people who don't want to do anything for
- 48:09somebody transgender, And nobody wants to sit down with somebody
- 48:13who hates their bodies so thoroughly that they must cut
- 48:18parts off of it because all of their pain and
- 48:23all of their anguish is coming from this set of genitals.
- 48:32Rather than doing the hard work of sitting down with
- 48:34those folks and having a conversation about what's painting them,
- 48:38what's aggrieving them, why they why do they feel this way,
- 48:47they decide it's easier to say it's okay, it's not
- 48:52a flaw, it's a feature, it's a reason to celebrate you.
- 49:00I mean, where only a few steps removed. If hamas
- 49:04can be a marginalized community and hating one's body so
- 49:12much that you want to mutilate it is a personality
- 49:22trait rather than a psychological issue, how far removed is
- 49:27it going to be from us turning around and saying, well,
- 49:31he murdered all those prostitutes because he was beaten as
- 49:34a child, so he really should go free. His mommy
- 49:39didn't love him, as a child, so he went out
- 49:41and started murdering prostitutes. It's just the same conversation we're
- 49:54having about Joe Rogan and Marjorie Taylor Green and the
- 49:57non citizens being sent back to the countries with the citizens.
- 50:02You bring up such craziness. But span Berger's peril, Charles,
- 50:08is the do gooders, the folks who don't want to
- 50:10do anything about it, but they want to say they've
- 50:13voted for somebody who will. And this is the majority
- 50:18of what passes as the Democratic Party right now. And
- 50:22we've said it before, and I don't mean to be hurtful,
- 50:26but hurtful sometimes is what's needed to snap somebody out
- 50:30of it. It's the old aqua velva smack in the face. Oh,
- 50:44we are a society based on common sense and law.
- 50:48If we lose that, we are not a society anymore.
- 50:51We are just roving hordes of vigilantes. We are a
- 51:00slightly better dressed version of Mad Max. We've lost the ability.
- 51:14And what happens is in the Democratic Party, rather than
- 51:21fix a problem, they will find a way to make
- 51:26it a campaign issue. Because we don't have these great
- 51:33issues anymore. Outside of poverty and poverty doesn't work for
- 51:37the Marxists anymore. They've sufficiently made everyone poor enough. So
- 51:42now in this internet driven world of influence and notoriety
- 51:50becoming currency feeding our inner Munchausen, Abigail Spanberger's party is
- 52:05replete with people who, though they don't care about trans
- 52:08all that much, they want to be seen as caring
- 52:11about trans so they put a rainbow flag out in
- 52:15front of their yard. LGBTQ lives matter. All of this
- 52:21it's virtue signaling, because we don't have a world that
- 52:29needs to worry about virtue anymore. We don't have time
- 52:33for actual virtue, but we can virtue signal as we
- 52:37come up to the left turn in the road. That's
- 52:41the issue that we're facing, and that's why Abigail Spanburger
- 52:44has seen her poll numbers crater because her virtue signal
- 52:50went off.
