- 0:04Speaker 1: Let your rage do you.
- 0:06Speaker 2: First Thing Today by Joe Thomas on the Talk Media Network.
- 0:11Speaker 3: Joe works at a steel mill, he's down here every day.
- 0:16Speaker 3: Leaves for work when the sun comes up, drops the
- 0:19Speaker 3: kids to school and all the work. Joe has everything
- 0:22Speaker 3: he dreamed of, all the treasures that he needs. No
- 0:27Speaker 3: wonder Joe's always smiling, he only aims to please you.
- 0:34Speaker 4: I want to be your girl. Since 2025. And business
- 1:05Speaker 4: is good. I'm in the butt kicking business. Business is good.
- 1:10Speaker 4: They're 434-882-4217. That is the contact line, if you will.
- 1:19Speaker 4: You can make phone calls there. You can make text
- 1:22Speaker 4: messages to there. Bob in Portland. Freedom 970 up there.
- 1:29Speaker 4: The cartoon of Chuck Schumer. No walls, no borders. Immigration
- 1:35Speaker 4: makes us stronger. And then the next panel, he's standing
- 1:40Speaker 4: behind a wrought iron gate with Secret Service guards in
- 1:44Speaker 4: front of him. That is the sum total of where
- 1:46Speaker 4: we are. The hypocrites run amok. I'll address this in
- 1:55Speaker 4: a little bit here, but we were just talking about
- 2:00Speaker 4: these arrests. I'll tell you more about the arrests in
- 2:07Speaker 4: California and what's going on there. But Marcus believes that
- 2:13Speaker 4: I'm participating in vote suppression activities. I appreciate you down there, Marcus,
- 2:21Speaker 4: listening to us on Daytona Talk Radio 95.1 there along
- 2:25Speaker 4: the beach. Because saying that they're coming after people, that
- 2:34Speaker 4: they're going to arrest election officials who knowingly participate and
- 2:42Speaker 4: in some cases ignore, just don't report. At what point
- 2:47Speaker 4: is there a law then? If you know somebody is
- 2:52Speaker 4: breaking a law, then should you not report it? And
- 3:01Speaker 4: the argument, of course, then turns to, well, you know,
- 3:04Speaker 4: we over-criminalize things. But breaking the law in terms of
- 3:09Speaker 4: taking a vote from someone who's not a citizen, Marcus,
- 3:13Speaker 4: to me is not something... Have you agreed to let
- 3:18Speaker 4: non-citizens vote? And if so, why don't we just set
- 3:21Speaker 4: up polling places in places like, I don't know, Paris?
- 3:28Speaker 4: Just asking. Let's see what the Parisians think about our
- 3:32Speaker 4: upcoming elections. Two weeks. Two weeks from today. Two weeks
- 3:38Speaker 4: in three, four, five, six days, we might even know
- 3:41Speaker 4: what the results are. But our first things this morning,
- 3:45Speaker 4: Trump administration, Department of Justice, telling California election officials that
- 3:53Speaker 4: if they knowingly either ignore or participate, in helping non-citizens vote,
- 4:01Speaker 4: they're guilty of a federal crime and they could face
- 4:04Speaker 4: the consequences. Meanwhile, the Department of Justice has sued California
- 4:09Speaker 4: election officials on the state level to adjoin them from
- 4:16Speaker 4: counting mail-in ballots from 20,000 people who the federal government
- 4:22Speaker 4: says is on a list of people who probably are
- 4:25Speaker 4: not U.S. citizens. And they want the voting tabulation to
- 4:29Speaker 4: be held up until they can verify their citizenship. Meanwhile,
- 4:33Speaker 4: 11 people are in custody and 17 others are in
- 4:37Speaker 4: the wind and authorities are looking for them for voting
- 4:41Speaker 4: illegally in U.S. elections. These are just the first of
- 4:47Speaker 4: those 20,000. I mentioned Paris. Overnight curfews now in the
- 4:53Speaker 4: government building area of the city, as well as one
- 4:56Speaker 4: of its Tony shopping districts, to protect the businesses there
- 5:03Speaker 4: from any further looting or damage. Department of Agriculture has
- 5:09Speaker 4: $ 8 billion set aside, said President Trump, to give to
- 5:13Speaker 4: farmers to offset the higher diesel costs during harvest season.
- 5:18Speaker 4: He said this during a campaign rally. in Kansas yesterday.
- 5:28Speaker 4: Treasury Department has flagged 270 million suspicious financial activities potentially
- 5:35Speaker 4: linked to federal student aid fraud and referred the findings
- 5:39Speaker 4: to federal investigators. The findings come from nearly 100 suspicious
- 5:44Speaker 4: activity reports and financial institutions that filed by a July
- 5:49Speaker 4: 29th alert at FinCED. And activist groups with ties to
- 5:55Speaker 4: China and Iran apparently are collaborating in the United States
- 6:00Speaker 4: to advance agendas opposed to U.S. policies, fundraising appeals directing
- 6:06Speaker 4: donations to sanctioned Iranian banks, according to an investigation done
- 6:11Speaker 4: by Newsweek. And those are some of your first things
- 6:15Speaker 4: this morning here on the Talk Media Network. Now, conversate
- 6:20Speaker 4: amongst yourself and call us at 434-882-4217. I was telling
- 6:27Speaker 4: you yesterday, Mesa Verde Hemp and our CBD oil, and
- 6:31Speaker 4: somebody called me and said, well, what do you get?
- 6:33Speaker 4: It's just CBD oil. It's the process that they do
- 6:37Speaker 4: out there at the Four Corners. And Seeley's business, the
- 6:41Speaker 4: stuff is so good. I told you, I put it
- 6:44Speaker 4: on my knees after getting our transmitters and not that
- 6:47Speaker 4: I hoisted the transmitter up myself, but I was crawling
- 6:50Speaker 4: around a lot. My knees were screaming about it and
- 6:53Speaker 4: so much better. And you don't have to keep using
- 6:56Speaker 4: it like some of these opioids and things like that.
- 6:58Speaker 4: Find out more at Mesa Verde Hemp Diet.
- 7:01Speaker 5: A few years ago, my youngest son had something minor
- 7:05Speaker 5: turned into something very major in a matter of hours.
- 7:07Speaker 6: It was MediShare that came through for us and there
- 7:10Speaker 6: was no hassles.
- 7:11Speaker 4: There was no problem.
- 7:12Speaker 5: That's what's so wonderful about knowing that you're a part
- 7:15Speaker 5: of such an incredible ministry.
- 7:17Speaker 7: MediShare is a biblical approach to health care where Christians
- 7:21Speaker 7: share each other's medical expenses.
- 7:23Speaker 8: MediShare is a family, a group of people that stick
- 7:27Speaker 8: with you through the hardest times of your life.
- 7:30Speaker 7: MediShare isn't insurance. It's a nonprofit ministry over 30 years old.
- 7:35Speaker 7: And members have shared over $ 8 billion of each other's
- 7:38Speaker 7: medical bills.
- 7:38Speaker 9: We don't have to spend so much on health insurance.
- 7:41Speaker 9: You can focus on supporting other people.
- 7:43Speaker 10: MediShare is affordable.

- 8:03Speaker 11: Did you know that healthy arteries make a gas? Yes,
- 8:08Speaker 11: actually three known gases. Hi, I'm Dr. Mitch. And nitric
- 8:13Speaker 11: oxide is a gas that's readily made all day long
- 8:18Speaker 11: to keep our arteries open by relaxing the blood vessel walls.
- 8:23Speaker 11: By doing this, our circulation is increased, bringing blood, oxygen,
- 8:28Speaker 11: and nutrients to every part of your body. Both age
- 8:32Speaker 11: and poor diet can lead to a loss of this
- 8:36Speaker 11: precious gas, and in turn, blood pressure can go up,
- 8:39Speaker 11: energy can go down, and you can get tingling in
- 8:42Speaker 11: your hands and feet. Well, our product, Ultimate Nitric Oxide,
- 8:47Speaker 11: can easily help fix this lack of nitric oxide. Go

- 9:33Speaker 15: Every year, more American adults die from vaccine-preventable diseases than
- 9:37Speaker 15: from breast cancer, traffic accidents, or AIDS. Vaccines like the
- 9:41Speaker 15: one for pneumococcal disease can protect adults from illnesses that
- 9:44Speaker 15: can cause missed days of work, hospitalization, and even death.
- 9:49Speaker 15: Pneumococcal disease is an infection that can lead to pneumonia, meningitis,
- 9:53Speaker 15: or even a severe blood infection. That's just one example
- 9:56Speaker 15: of an infection that can spread from person to person.
- 10:00Speaker 15: Getting vaccinated can help protect you and those close to you.
- 10:04Speaker 16: I'm Dr.
- 10:05Speaker 15: Susan Rehm of the National Foundation for Infectious Diseases. When
- 10:08Speaker 15: I speak with my patients, I urge them to get
- 10:10Speaker 15: all their recommended vaccines. Now I'm urging you to speak
- 10:14Speaker 15: with your doctor to find out which vaccines you need.
- 10:17Speaker 15: For more information about the vaccines that are recommended for
- 10:20Speaker 15: adults and the diseases they prevent, like HPV, whooping cough, tetanus,
- 10:24Speaker 15: and shingles, visit adultvaccination.org. That's www.adultvaccination.org.

- 13:18Speaker 2: by Joe Tallis on the Talk Media Network.
- 13:21Speaker 10: Here's to the babies in a brand new world.
- 13:24Speaker 1: Here's to the beauty.
- 13:25Speaker 9: Of the stars.
- 13:26Speaker 12: Here's to the.
- 13:29Speaker 1: Travelers on the open road.
- 13:30Speaker 21: Here's to the dreamers in the bars.
- 13:34Speaker 1: Here's to the soldiers of the bitter war.
- 13:38Speaker 14: Here's to the wall that bears their names.
- 13:59Speaker 4: I drink your health and sit to your services each
- 14:04Speaker 4: morning here at 434-882-4217. Our flagship city of Charlottesville, home
- 14:11Speaker 4: to much ignominity, but it's also home to much beauty. Obviously,
- 14:15Speaker 4: the birthplace of Thomas Jefferson, so we call ourselves America's hometown,
- 14:20Speaker 4: or at least my friends do. The other ones, I
- 14:22Speaker 4: hated them. It's crazy. But we're also home. If you
- 14:29Speaker 4: ever come to do the Joe Thomas in the morning
- 14:33Speaker 4: tourism package, you can tour the nation's first, the nation's oldest,
- 14:40Speaker 4: and I would argue one of the nation's most beautiful
- 14:43Speaker 4: memorials to those who went to Vietnam in our country's name.
- 14:48Speaker 4: And the Dogwood Vietnam Memorial is stunning. And they're in
- 14:51Speaker 4: a battle right now because for a decade, the city
- 14:55Speaker 4: has been saying, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, we'll build a
- 14:57Speaker 4: bridge and a parking lot for you because there's no parking.
- 15:00Speaker 4: It's like three quarters of a mile away. And when
- 15:03Speaker 4: you're 90, it starts to get a little rough to
- 15:05Speaker 4: get there. So they were going to build a parking
- 15:08Speaker 4: lot and a bridge right to the memorial. And it
- 15:12Speaker 4: keeps being lip service. Is it the most important thing? No,
- 15:15Speaker 4: but then say so. Say this isn't really important, guys. Thanks,
- 15:19Speaker 4: but no thanks. The problem, of course, being that the
- 15:22Speaker 4: municipal government and We've watched this with every Civil War
- 15:26Speaker 4: monument that's been taken down. The squishers that swish their
- 15:31Speaker 4: way into these elected offices don't like the idea that
- 15:35Speaker 4: we have soldiers, don't like the idea that we have
- 15:38Speaker 4: an army, and they certainly don't like their beautiful liberal
- 15:43Speaker 4: enclave cities to be pockmarked with memorials to soldiers who
- 15:47Speaker 4: went to war, who killed people and broke things. to
- 15:54Speaker 4: liberate others. For some reason, they just can't cotton that.
- 15:59Speaker 4: And that's why our Vietnam Memorial is beautiful, but it's
- 16:03Speaker 4: a hike to get to. You can see it from
- 16:06Speaker 4: our highway, and I think that bothers them the most,
- 16:09Speaker 4: is that the main highway through town, you go right
- 16:12Speaker 4: past it, and it is beautiful. And I just wish
- 16:16Speaker 4: this was a memorial. A city councilor actually told me,
- 16:19Speaker 4: I wish this was just a memorial to people that
- 16:22Speaker 4: have served their communities. Okay. And I warn you, that's coming.
- 16:28Speaker 4: I think our Vietnam veterans remember the acronym BOHICA. James
- 16:34Speaker 4: Locke is on the phone with us. 434-879-COIN is his
- 16:41Speaker 4: number at jcsgold.com. Good morning, James. How are you doing
- 16:45Speaker 4: this morning, sir? I'm doing well, Joe.
- 16:48Speaker 24: Gold and silver are mixed so far this morning.
- 16:51Speaker 4: Silver is flat.
- 16:53Speaker 24: Even on the day, right at $ 57. 12, no change so far.
- 16:58Speaker 24: Gold is down about a half percent, down $ 24 to $ 4, 116.
- 17:04Speaker 24: Both metals, you know, holding tight, chopping in the sideways
- 17:08Speaker 24: channel that we've been in for about two weeks now.
- 17:11Speaker 4: I'm going to keep my cake hole shut here because
- 17:13Speaker 4: a couple of weeks ago I said, feels like they're
- 17:16Speaker 4: getting ready to move off this plateau. And they're like, Oh, Oh,
- 17:19Speaker 4: we'll show Joe. We'll we're just going to, we're going
- 17:22Speaker 4: to languish here a few more weeks. Uh, it's like
- 17:24Speaker 4: an all inclusive resort for them, but, uh, you keep
- 17:27Speaker 4: an eye and, and if you don't know, and Lord
- 17:30Speaker 4: have mercy, if you, uh, If you listen to talk radio,
- 17:33Speaker 4: you know you hear all the yelling and screaming and
- 17:36Speaker 4: must buy and download my video about. And everything's about
- 17:40Speaker 4: an upsell and a click and whatever. This is a
- 17:43Speaker 4: family business who care about you having a successful run
- 17:49Speaker 4: in gold and silver and numismatism and collectible coins and
- 17:53Speaker 4: whatever it is you want to talk to them about.
- 17:56Speaker 4: And if at the end of the conversation you're like,
- 17:58Speaker 4: I'm going to go think about it, they're not going
- 18:00Speaker 4: to harangue you. This isn't one of those cold call
- 18:03Speaker 4: things and closers get coffee. It's a family business that
- 18:07Speaker 4: just wants to give you good advice because that's how
- 18:10Speaker 4: they've been around since 1961. Sorry, James, I didn't mean
- 18:13Speaker 4: to brag on you there, but it's not bragging if
- 18:18Speaker 4: it's the truth, right?
- 18:20Speaker 9: Yeah, no problem at all, Joe.
- 18:21Speaker 24: And, you know, that's why we tell our clients it's
- 18:24Speaker 24: really doesn't need to be a stressful thing investing in
- 18:27Speaker 24: gold and silver. You know, just just dip your toe in,
- 18:31Speaker 24: just start stacking, you know, your gold and silver stacks there,
- 18:35Speaker 24: you know, in your vault, in your safety deposit box.
- 18:38Speaker 4: You know, just the.
- 18:40Speaker 24: Biggest thing that has been most helpful for our clients
- 18:43Speaker 24: portfolio folios is just getting started. No one has regretted
- 18:48Speaker 24: getting started with gold and silver. You don't have to
- 18:51Speaker 24: put all of your eggs in one basket or make
- 18:52Speaker 24: some huge investment. We have gold and silver products for
- 18:56Speaker 24: every budget at JCSGold.com. So the biggest thing is just
- 19:00Speaker 24: getting started and starting to build that position in physical
- 19:05Speaker 24: gold and silver.
- 19:05Speaker 4: Well, I tell you, there have been points in the
- 19:07Speaker 4: last three to four years where if you sold eggs,
- 19:09Speaker 4: you'd probably be doing pretty well as well. James, you
- 19:13Speaker 4: have a good morning, my friend.
- 19:14Speaker 9: Thanks, Joe.
- 19:15Speaker 4: You too. 434-979-COIN. That's their number at the Jefferson Coin Shop, jcsgold.com. Dr.
- 19:25Speaker 4: Clark is on the line, started calling in when I
- 19:27Speaker 4: was called a vote suppressor there. I don't know if
- 19:30Speaker 4: you have to screw me on to the end of
- 19:32Speaker 4: the election to be a good vote suppressor or not,
- 19:36Speaker 4: but I think I defended myself well, Clark. What's on
- 19:38Speaker 4: your mind this morning?
- 19:41Speaker 6: Is there a transfer tax for vote suppressors now, or
- 19:44Speaker 6: did I do away with that?
- 19:45Speaker 4: I think you actually have some straight-up bans on vote suppress.
- 19:51Speaker 9: Oh, okay.
- 19:52Speaker 6: I thought that's what polling was for, was voter suppression.
- 19:55Speaker 6: But anyway, so let's see. Hey, Joe, you know how
- 19:59Speaker 6: many days of early voting the state of Alabama has?
- 20:04Speaker 4: Five. Zero. You're going to make me feel bad.
- 20:10Speaker 6: You know when I'm going to know the results of
- 20:12Speaker 6: the election?
- 20:14Speaker 4: Two weeks from now at about like 10 o'clock at night. Yeah,
- 20:19Speaker 4: before I go.
- 20:20Speaker 6: To bed and I go to bed early. So there
- 20:22Speaker 6: you go. Now, you might make the argument that like
- 20:25Speaker 6: we don't have shoes or our toes are readily accessible.
- 20:28Speaker 4: Now, that's not true about Alabama. That's not true about Alabama.
- 20:34Speaker 4: I mean, mostly.
- 20:35Speaker 6: No, but we like to propagate that just to keep
- 20:37Speaker 6: people from coming.
- 20:38Speaker 4: To be fair, there are shoeless earth dogs in New
- 20:40Speaker 4: York City as well.
- 20:43Speaker 6: So let's talk about some Jim Crow-loving right-wingers.
- 20:50Speaker 4: Clark, you okay?
- 20:53Speaker 6: You know, I am, but I can't say that without laughing, Joe.
- 20:57Speaker 4: Okay.
- 20:58Speaker 6: Jim Crow-loving right-wingers.
- 21:00Speaker 19: You know.
- 21:02Speaker 6: We should all reread Animal Farm on.
- 21:04Speaker 12: A regular basis.
- 21:08Speaker 4: Yes. And seeing the film depictions does not suffice in
- 21:14Speaker 4: this case.
- 21:15Speaker 6: No, you need to read that. So every time somebody
- 21:19Speaker 6: started to bring something up, what did the sheep bleat?
- 21:23Speaker 2: Oh, gosh.
- 21:24Speaker 4: Oh, oh, man. I didn't know there'd be a quiz
- 21:27Speaker 4: this morning, teacher. The dog ate my homework. Oh, gosh.
- 21:32Speaker 6: Four legs good, two legs bad.
- 21:35Speaker 4: Right. Thank you. Thank you.
- 21:37Speaker 6: They bleated that every time somebody started to make a point,
- 21:41Speaker 6: the sheep would drown them out with four legs good,
- 21:45Speaker 6: two legs bad. Until the end of the book when
- 21:50Speaker 6: Squealer taught them a new song.
- 21:53Speaker 4: Quickly. We're coming up on the news.
- 21:55Speaker 12: Four legs good.
- 21:57Speaker 6: Two legs better. And you know, the thing is.

- 28:13Speaker 2: First thing today by Joe Thomas on.
- 28:16Speaker 1: The Talk Media Network.
- 28:28Speaker 4: Out here, and it's true, I've said it, there are
- 28:33Speaker 4: toothless and shoeless and whatever other derisive terms. You know,
- 28:37Speaker 4: Jeff Foxworthy said it the best. There are rednecks everywhere.
- 28:42Speaker 4: And that wasn't necessarily a bad thing either, but they
- 28:44Speaker 4: love to deride we that they claim to be in
- 28:49Speaker 4: flyover country. A couple of text messages saying, come on, dude, Dr.
- 28:54Speaker 4: Clark only had one last thing to say. You couldn't
- 28:56Speaker 4: have waited? No, because the news guy is in the newsroom.
- 29:00Speaker 4: He's got a bunch of things to do. So he's like,
- 29:04Speaker 4: I'm coming at half past, whether you're ready or not.
- 29:08Speaker 4: So Clark's on the line and we've got a special
- 29:11Speaker 4: guest coming from inside the house there. But go ahead, Clark,
- 29:15Speaker 4: finish up. Give me the thing is and then I'll
- 29:19Speaker 4: get it in here after the break.
- 29:22Speaker 6: So we constantly were getting comparisons of Donald Trump, Adolf Hitler,
- 29:26Speaker 6: who those of us who were cursed with the ability
- 29:30Speaker 6: to remember, no.
- 29:31Speaker 12: Was a socialist.
- 29:33Speaker 4: Nationalist socialist.
- 29:35Speaker 6: Just national socialist. It's right there in the name. And,
- 29:39Speaker 6: you know, they can do this oh the right wingers
- 29:42Speaker 6: did jim crow no that that was y'all well the
- 29:45Speaker 6: right wingers did slavery no that that was y'all but
- 29:49Speaker 6: like the sheep they can learn a new song in
- 29:53Speaker 6: just a day or so.
- 29:55Speaker 4: I like it i like the animal farm reference there, Clark.
- 29:58Speaker 4: I appreciate it. Oh, this text, Joe, all the cool
- 30:02Speaker 4: radio show hosts just do whatever they want and the
- 30:05Speaker 4: hell with any kind of format. Well, here's the thing that,
- 30:08Speaker 4: you know, people need to know the news. They need
- 30:10Speaker 4: to know the weather. And I'm not so arrogant to
- 30:13Speaker 4: think that I'm more important than whether or not it's
- 30:17Speaker 4: going to be cold out tonight or if it's going
- 30:20Speaker 4: to be raining on you. I understand importance and hierarchy.
- 30:25Speaker 4: Joining us right now from the U.S. House of Representatives
- 30:30Speaker 4: Committee of Oversight and Government Reform, that's a busy one,
- 30:33Speaker 4: and the House Armed Services Committee, he is Congressman John McGuire. John,
- 30:39Speaker 4: good morning, sir. How are you doing?
- 30:40Speaker 12: Hey, good morning, Joe. We have two weeks to go,
- 30:45Speaker 12: but who's counting?
- 30:46Speaker 27: And it was great to see you at the Western
- 30:48Speaker 27: Albemarle Turning Point USA event.
- 30:50Speaker 12: That was a great event.
- 30:51Speaker 4: You know, and by the way, just a quick note
- 30:53Speaker 4: about John in terms of politicians. I had to drag
- 30:57Speaker 4: him over to the stage to say a few words.
- 31:01Speaker 4: A politician was about to leave the room without giving
- 31:04Speaker 4: a speech. Film at 11. That was the news story
- 31:07Speaker 4: of the day. But I appreciate it. And a lot
- 31:10Speaker 4: of these kids, I mean, high school kids, John, high
- 31:13Speaker 4: school kids fired up and in trying to do the
- 31:16Speaker 4: right thing for our world. Who to thunk it?
- 31:21Speaker 27: Yeah, I didn't want to hijack their event, but I
- 31:22Speaker 27: appreciate you bringing me up on stage. But I tell you,
- 31:26Speaker 27: these young people give me hope. The one young girl, Olivia,
- 31:29Speaker 27: said her favorite president was Calvin Coolidge. We got to
- 31:32Speaker 27: talk policy. It just gives you hope that young people
- 31:36Speaker 27: are educating themselves on politics and they care about this country.
- 31:41Speaker 4: And she was one of my election reporters last year.
- 31:45Speaker 4: We need to get her hooked up. We've got some
- 31:47Speaker 4: elections coming up. Hey, John, and I've seen these. I've
- 31:50Speaker 4: had folks sending me these hit piece videos. I don't
- 31:56Speaker 4: know if George Soros has a video house. They all
- 32:00Speaker 4: look very similar. They're all making salacious comments about conservatives
- 32:06Speaker 4: and Republicans trying to make them look unconservative. And it's
- 32:12Speaker 4: the most insidious little kind of vote suppression ever. going
- 32:18Speaker 4: after you specifically on data centers. You're not the only one.
- 32:22Speaker 4: But then even making some crazy statement about child marriage.
- 32:28Speaker 4: I know what this is. It's all designed to make
- 32:31Speaker 4: conservatives like me say, well, I can't vote for that.
- 32:35Speaker 4: What are these ads all about, John, outside of beating you?
- 32:40Speaker 27: Well, I got to tell you, the Democrats don't let
- 32:42Speaker 27: a lie get in the way of the truth. And
- 32:44Speaker 27: my opponent, Tom Perriello, all he's got to do to
- 32:46Speaker 27: win is lie about me.
- 32:48Speaker 12: That's what he thinks, and that's his strategy.
- 32:50Speaker 27: My strategy is all I got to do is tell
- 32:52Speaker 27: the truth about him. You probably remember when he was
- 32:55Speaker 27: in the Congress, he said he was pro-life, pro-gun. And
- 32:58Speaker 27: then when he ran against Northam in the primary, he
- 33:00Speaker 27: said he.
- 33:01Speaker 12: Wasn't pro-life and he wasn't pro-gun.
- 33:03Speaker 27: He's just like Abigail Spanberger, bait and switch.
- 33:06Speaker 12: They'll say anything to get elected.
- 33:08Speaker 27: But yeah, the data centers, I've said since day one
- 33:10Speaker 27: that if a county doesn't want a data center, they
- 33:12Speaker 27: shouldn't have it.
- 33:13Speaker 12: I mean, there's a place for them. Maybe it's the desert.
- 33:15Speaker 9: I don't know.
- 33:15Speaker 27: But it's not next to your farm or next to
- 33:18Speaker 27: your business. If it impacts your water table, shouldn't have it.
- 33:21Speaker 27: If you've got to pay for the energy or electricity,
- 33:23Speaker 27: shouldn't have it. We cannot let China be this AI world.
- 33:27Speaker 27: But there is a place for maybe industrial parks or something.
- 33:30Speaker 27: But he knows that. But he will say anything to
- 33:32Speaker 27: try to get your vote. And you probably heard the
- 33:36Speaker 27: child marriage attack.
- 33:37Speaker 4: Yeah. What was that about? I mean, the ad is
- 33:41Speaker 4: really weird. It says all these members of the Virginia
- 33:45Speaker 4: House voted against child marriage except John McGuire. I couldn't
- 33:50Speaker 4: tell who they were. They just flashed some pictures up
- 33:52Speaker 4: on the screen. But what was the bill about?
- 33:57Speaker 28: Yeah.
- 33:57Speaker 12: So it's really sick.
- 33:58Speaker 27: He tried to say I'm the only one that voted no,
- 34:00Speaker 27: but 42 other Republicans voted no as well. And basically
- 34:04Speaker 27: what it did was it raised the age of marriage
- 34:06Speaker 27: to 18 in Virginia. There's no problem with that, but
- 34:09Speaker 27: I wanted to make an exception for our military. 200,000
- 34:14Speaker 27: American soldiers were under age 17 in World War II,
- 34:17Speaker 27: for example.
- 34:18Speaker 12: And I said, let me get this straight.
- 34:20Speaker 27: You can join the army at 17, die for your country,
- 34:24Speaker 27: but you can't marry your fiance?
- 34:26Speaker 4: Oh, I see.
- 34:27Speaker 12: And so if you die in combat, she doesn't get
- 34:30Speaker 12: the benefits, right? So let's say that she's carrying your baby.
- 34:35Speaker 12: You can't marry her.
- 34:35Speaker 27: So he tries to say, because I didn't raise the
- 34:39Speaker 27: age of marriage to 18, I wanted child.
- 34:43Speaker 12: Marriage, which is so sick a twist.
- 34:46Speaker 27: Virginia already had the strictest protections on child marriage. In
- 34:49Speaker 27: order for a 17-year-old to get married, she or he
- 34:53Speaker 27: has to be emancipated. That means living on their own,
- 34:56Speaker 27: having a job, paying their own bills.
- 34:58Speaker 12: Very few in.
- 34:59Speaker 9: Virginia do that.
- 35:00Speaker 27: And even if they were emancipated, they had to go
- 35:03Speaker 27: before a judge and the judge interviewed the man.
- 35:05Speaker 9: And interviewed the woman.
- 35:06Speaker 27: I mean, it was literally impossible. But my reason for
- 35:10Speaker 27: voting no was for our soldiers. You know, we always
- 35:13Speaker 27: had an exception in Virginia for someone. Let's say you're
- 35:16Speaker 27: 18 years old. You go off to war and you
- 35:18Speaker 27: got a 17 year old, you know, fiance.
- 35:23Speaker 12: You die. She doesn't get the benefits. Or even if
- 35:26Speaker 12: you're 17.
- 35:27Speaker 4: Right, right. But she's your spouse.
- 35:29Speaker 9: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 35:30Speaker 12: So it's a crazy stretch.
- 35:33Speaker 4: So it was another one of these you're voting against
- 35:36Speaker 4: it because it doesn't do the right things. It goes
- 35:40Speaker 4: too far. It's too generic of a bill. And I
- 35:44Speaker 4: hate these. And I think it's part of what Americans
- 35:47Speaker 4: hate about our representation right now is some of these bills,
- 35:51Speaker 4: I think, are proposed both in the state houses, whether
- 35:54Speaker 4: it's Sacramento or Richmond or Tallahassee. are proposed just so
- 36:00Speaker 4: that they can tag somebody in a year or two
- 36:04Speaker 4: when they're running for re-election or running for higher office
- 36:07Speaker 4: even with their vote on it. And I just, you know,
- 36:11Speaker 4: I find that Americans are getting frustrated and I play,
- 36:15Speaker 4: I think it plays a role in why you only
- 36:17Speaker 4: see 40, 45% voter turnouts, John.
- 36:21Speaker 12: Yeah, it's really, that's what it's all about, suppressing the vote.
- 36:23Speaker 27: And by the way, you probably saw the indictments in
- 36:26Speaker 27: Albemarle County, Where the teacher put children in a room.
- 36:30Speaker 4: Saw them. Saw them. I've been all over them like
- 36:33Speaker 4: white on rice. I'm getting called nationwide to go tell
- 36:37Speaker 4: people about this story. Nobody else is covering it but me,
- 36:40Speaker 4: it seems, and Rob.
- 36:42Speaker 12: Yeah, well, let me give you some insider scoop.
- 36:43Speaker 9: You may have or may not have.
- 36:45Speaker 27: Democrats called me and said they could not get credits
- 36:49Speaker 27: or the two Democrat delegates. They couldn't get any local
- 36:52Speaker 27: leaders to do anything about it. So Democrats came to
- 36:55Speaker 27: me and asked me to do something. And if you remember,
- 36:58Speaker 27: it was so egregious, they covered it up.
- 37:02Speaker 9: Because they didn't want, they cared more about the reputation of.
- 37:04Speaker 4: The school children. Well, and the trans agenda.
- 37:08Speaker 27: Oh, yeah. Well, I wrote a letter to Abigail Spanberger
- 37:10Speaker 27: demanding an investigation. And finally, after about nine days, she
- 37:15Speaker 27: responded and said, we should have an investigation. That's another
- 37:18Speaker 27: story about how good that is or bad that is.
- 37:21Speaker 27: But then finally, Creed Eats, And finally, the other two
- 37:24Speaker 27: Democrat delegates jumped on board and wrote letters and said
- 37:27Speaker 27: we need an investigation. But three months went by and
- 37:31Speaker 27: not a word from Perriello.
- 37:33Speaker 9: Finally, the other day, he wrote something.
- 37:35Speaker 27: And, you know, what it is is because he cares
- 37:37Speaker 27: more about votes in Albemarle and Charlottesville than he does
- 37:40Speaker 27: protecting children. It's very rich that he would go in
- 37:42Speaker 27: there and say, I want child marriage when Virginia has
- 37:45Speaker 27: laws that are so strict.
- 37:47Speaker 9: That prevent child marriage.
- 37:48Speaker 2: Well, it is.
- 37:51Speaker 4: John, what's the campaign website? Before I forget.
- 37:54Speaker 9: It's McGuire.
- 37:55Speaker 14: Yeah.
- 37:55Speaker 9: McGuire VA dot com.
- 37:57Speaker 4: John McGuire on with this member of the House Oversight Committee.

- 39:07Speaker 11: bioavailable and highly absorbable curcumin products on the market. Hi,
- 39:13Speaker 11: I'm Dr.
- 39:14Speaker 22: Mitch.
- 39:15Speaker 11: Since most chronic diseases have inflammation, our optimized curcumin seems
- 39:20Speaker 11: to be a perfect addition to any nutritional program. It
- 39:24Speaker 11: makes sense to me that preventing or reducing inflammation is
- 39:29Speaker 11: a key component to our overall health. The Mayo Clinic
- 39:33Speaker 11: found that curcumin can decrease swelling and inflammation has antioxidant
- 39:38Speaker 11: properties and research suggests that curcumin can prevent cancer or
- 39:44Speaker 11: at least slow the spread of cancer and in many
- 39:46Speaker 11: instances make chemotherapy more effective It protects our healthy cells
- 39:52Speaker 11: even from radiation. TotalWellness.com, where we help you to look good,

- 40:02Speaker 29: I'm Andrew Saul, Commissioner of Social Security. I'm here to
- 40:06Speaker 29: warn you about telephone scammers pretending to be government employees.
- 40:10Speaker 29: Some of these scammers may say threatening things like you

- 40:17Speaker 29: personal information. Do not fall for these tricks. These calls
- 40:22Speaker 29: are not from us. Real Social Security employees will never
- 40:26Speaker 29: threaten you for information or money. If you receive a
- 40:29Speaker 29: call like this, hang up. Never give the caller your
- 40:33Speaker 29: personal information, like your Social Security number or bank account,
- 40:38Speaker 29: or send money in any form, cash, gift cards, wire transfers,
- 40:43Speaker 29: or prepaid debit cards. Report the call to our law
- 40:46Speaker 29: enforcement arm the Office of the Inspector General at oig.ssa.gov.
- 40:54Speaker 29: Share this information with your friends and family.
- 40:59Speaker 28: Hi, everybody. I'm Jack Hanna. Since I was a boy
- 41:01Speaker 28: growing up on a farm in Tennessee, I've been fascinated
- 41:04Speaker 28: with animals. I'm not only in awe of their beauty
- 41:06Speaker 28: and kindness, but also their tireless work ethic. Just look
- 41:09Speaker 28: at the birds who gather supplies to build nests, or
- 41:12Speaker 28: Swiss foxes who work hard to provide for their young,
- 41:14Speaker 28: or penguins who travel up to 500 miles to secure
- 41:18Speaker 28: food for their families, or bush babies whose impressive jump
- 41:21Speaker 28: allows them to navigate the trees and the wild in
- 41:23Speaker 28: search of fruit. This remarkable work ethic is shared by
- 41:26Speaker 28: our best friends, the canines. We know dogs are our
- 41:29Speaker 28: wonderful pets at home, but because of their acute senses,
- 41:32Speaker 28: They also perform life-saving work every day. Dogs keep us
- 41:35Speaker 28: safe at airports. They comfort returning veterans, some of whom
- 41:38Speaker 28: suffer from PTS. They work with diabetics, alerting them when
- 41:41Speaker 28: there's a change in their blood chemistry. Working dogs have
- 41:44Speaker 28: a variety of highly trained roles that contribute to society
- 41:47Speaker 28: and help those in need. So please join me and
- 41:49Speaker 28: American Humane in supporting our heroic working dogs and all
- 41:52Speaker 28: the amazing animals on this planet we inhabit together. Go
- 41:55Speaker 28: to AmericanHumane.org to learn more.
- 41:59Speaker 7: Uh-oh, Brad's buzzed.
- 42:01Speaker 17: Oh, yeah?
- 42:02Speaker 4: Yeah, he's starting with the woots.
- 42:04Speaker 19: And now a speech.
- 42:07Speaker 20: I just want to say that friendship is about heart.
- 42:10Speaker 12: Heart and brain.
- 42:12Speaker 4: Who's with me?
- 42:13Speaker 28: Good thing is, he knows when he's buzzed.
- 42:15Speaker 20: And my brain is saying, when it's time to go home,
- 42:18Speaker 20: somebody call me a ride.
- 42:20Speaker 23: Love that guy.
- 42:21Speaker 19: Me too.
- 42:21Speaker 14: Know your buzzed warning signs?
- 42:23Speaker 21: Call for a ride when it's time to go home.
- 42:25Speaker 23: Buzz driving is drunk driving.
- 42:29Speaker 16: Did you know that more than half our household energy
- 42:31Speaker 16: costs go to heating and cooling? Energy efficiency isn't just
- 42:35Speaker 16: good for the environment. It means lower utility bills, too.
- 42:40Speaker 16: One way to reduce your energy waste is a home
- 42:42Speaker 16: energy assessment. Your utility company can help, or you can
- 42:46Speaker 16: learn how to do it yourself at energysavers.gov. That's energysavers.gov.
- 42:52Speaker 16: You'll learn to look for air leaks around windows and doors,
- 42:55Speaker 16: check ducts for holes, and improve your insulation. Another time
- 42:59Speaker 16: to cut energy costs is when you shop for a
- 43:01Speaker 16: new appliance. Look for the Energy Star logo and read
- 43:04Speaker 16: the Energy Guide label. And there are day-to-day things you
- 43:08Speaker 16: can do. Lower your thermostat in winter and raise it
- 43:11Speaker 16: in the summer. Close fireplace dampers when they're not in use.
- 43:15Speaker 16: And keep air filters clean. For more tips on saving
- 43:18Speaker 16: money by reducing your energy waste, check out ftc.gov slash green.

- 43:30Speaker 18: As a family member or friend, you may be the
- 43:33Speaker 18: first to notice when a veteran you love has been
- 43:35Speaker 18: going through changes. Things like withdrawing, drinking more, or increased
- 43:41Speaker 18: anger could be a sign of a larger health concern.
- 43:44Speaker 14: But help is available.
- 43:46Speaker 18: Listen to hundreds of inspiring stories at maketheconnection.net and learn
- 43:51Speaker 18: how you can support the veterans in your life. Treatment works.
- 43:56Speaker 18: Recovery is possible.
- 44:12Speaker 2: First Thing Today by Joe Thomas on the Talk Media Network.
- 44:18Speaker 1: I don't understand what you're saying.
- 44:30Speaker 4: So what Marxism is, it's a superstition. It is this
- 44:34Speaker 4: idea that somehow your life can be fixed through courts
- 44:40Speaker 4: and laws and other people's stuff. And joining us from
- 44:45Speaker 4: the House Oversight Committee, House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform,
- 44:50Speaker 4: Jamie Comer et al., is John McGuire on the campaign trail.
- 44:58Speaker 4: And I wanted to ask a couple more things. John,
- 45:01Speaker 4: I wanted to ask you about this, your opponent, like many,
- 45:06Speaker 4: and it's a nationwide campaign. I've watched it all across
- 45:10Speaker 4: Virginia and California and Florida and Texas. Tallarico is doing it.
- 45:16Speaker 4: They've all got these, quote, veterans groups that are endorsing them,
- 45:20Speaker 4: and they're all going out and making statements about Iran
- 45:23Speaker 4: and And what I find rich about your particular opponent
- 45:27Speaker 4: is I've been around here a while, and I was
- 45:30Speaker 4: there when he was first elected the first time to Congress,
- 45:33Speaker 4: and he did it by going to court to keep
- 45:38Speaker 4: overseas service members' votes from being counted. And he went
- 45:43Speaker 4: into court and he fought and fought and fought because
- 45:46Speaker 4: Tim Kaine's Department of Elections said, sent the votes overseas late.
- 45:51Speaker 4: They got back a day late, which, by the way,
- 45:54Speaker 4: is legal now in Virginia to come in late. But
- 45:57Speaker 4: then it was in a fought and fought and fought
- 45:59Speaker 4: against those veterans, those service members ballots being counted. And
- 46:04Speaker 4: I wonder if these folks even realize as these veterans groups,
- 46:08Speaker 4: quote unquote, get out there that he kept their votes
- 46:11Speaker 4: from being counted in 2008.
- 46:15Speaker 27: Yeah, I'm glad you brought that up. And I mean,
- 46:17Speaker 27: it doesn't surprise me. This guy will say or do
- 46:20Speaker 27: anything to win. And if he will lie to be
- 46:22Speaker 27: your congressman, what kind of congressman will he be? What
- 46:27Speaker 27: kind of congressman will he be? You know, we wouldn't
- 46:29Speaker 27: have a country without our men and women in our military.
- 46:31Speaker 27: And that's just highly disrespectful. But I'm sure your audience
- 46:35Speaker 27: knows this guy ran the Open Society Foundation. They pushed
- 46:38Speaker 27: 20 million people into our country illegally. They've been robbing,
- 46:43Speaker 27: raping and killing the American people. And while he was there,
- 46:46Speaker 27: they gave Black Lives Matter $ 220 million during the Summer
- 46:50Speaker 27: of Love in 2020 when they were burning our cities.
- 46:53Speaker 9: And when I see what's going on in Paris, I.
- 46:55Speaker 4: Mean, that's why. I was going to ask you about that.
- 46:57Speaker 9: Yeah, these midterms are so important because Western civilization is
- 47:02Speaker 9: on the ballot.
- 47:03Speaker 4: How close? I mean, we saw riots in Richmond and
- 47:07Speaker 4: Roanoke here and, of course, Portland and Chicago and places
- 47:11Speaker 4: like that all across the country. during the Summer of Love,
- 47:15Speaker 4: as you called it, how close is the United States
- 47:18Speaker 4: to becoming like Paris? Because everyone's trying to say it
- 47:22Speaker 4: was an economic riot. These were guys who were chanting
- 47:26Speaker 4: death to America. They were waving Iranian flags. This was
- 47:31Speaker 4: a caliphate more than it is an economic maelstrom of
- 47:38Speaker 4: Occupy Wall Streeters.
- 47:41Speaker 27: Based on the information I've seen, if Kamala Harris were
- 47:44Speaker 27: your president right now, you would already see what's happening
- 47:47Speaker 27: in Paris happening in the United States. Thank God President
- 47:51Speaker 27: Trump is in the White House. The enemy is not
- 47:53Speaker 27: at the gate. The enemy is in the gate. I
- 47:56Speaker 27: went on 9-11.
- 47:57Speaker 9: A few weeks ago.
- 47:58Speaker 27: I went to the FBI headquarters and looked over the information,
- 48:01Speaker 27: the investigation evidence of what caused it and what mistakes
- 48:05Speaker 27: did we make. And several of the top three mistakes
- 48:08Speaker 27: had to do with border security and vetting people coming
- 48:11Speaker 27: over the border.
- 48:13Speaker 9: Multiply that times a thousand.
- 48:15Speaker 27: And that's what we dealt with during the Biden administration.
- 48:18Speaker 27: So people that hate our country are all over this country.
- 48:22Speaker 27: And so I would ask every one of your listeners
- 48:24Speaker 27: to As we as American people, we've got to put
- 48:27Speaker 27: our differences aside and keep an eye on each other.
- 48:29Speaker 27: If you see something, say something, do something. The enemy's here.
- 48:33Speaker 4: John, last question. California, 20,000 people, President Trump and the
- 48:39Speaker 4: DOJ is saying they want to enjoin counting of ballots
- 48:43Speaker 4: in California until they vet these 20,000 people. That's substantial.
- 48:48Speaker 4: Are there concerns? Do you know if the same thing
- 48:51Speaker 4: is going on in States like Virginia and Florida and Texas, too?
- 48:56Speaker 27: It doesn't surprise me. I would ask the Democrats, you know,
- 48:59Speaker 27: I would like to ask them, when are you going
- 49:00Speaker 27: to stop being for them and start being for us?
- 49:03Speaker 27: You know, we found fraud in Minnesota and they went
- 49:06Speaker 27: after the people that found the fraud instead of the
- 49:07Speaker 27: people that committed the fraud. People came to our country illegally.
- 49:11Speaker 27: They went after the people that were trying to ship
- 49:13Speaker 27: them out of here instead of the people that came
- 49:15Speaker 27: here illegally. And we've got it's Operation Protect the Vote.
- 49:18Speaker 27: You remember in Virginia, 2017, David Yancey.
- 49:22Speaker 9: Won by one vote. That one vote.
- 49:25Speaker 27: Gave us a Republican majority in the House of Delegates,
- 49:27Speaker 27: and we were able to protect life, our Second Amendment,
- 49:29Speaker 27: and everything else. Every vote mattered. And what Democrats like
- 49:32Speaker 27: to say, well, it's only a few. First of all,
- 49:35Speaker 27: I think it's a lot more than a few, sadly.
- 49:36Speaker 27: But even if it was only one, it's too much.
- 49:39Speaker 27: So thank God we have an administration that takes election
- 49:41Speaker 27: integrity seriously.
- 49:43Speaker 4: Well, John, I appreciate your visit. I know you got
- 49:46Speaker 4: a full slate. We'll talk again two weeks. Election Day
- 49:49Speaker 4: is two weeks from now, and the House is in
- 49:53Speaker 4: the balance. What are you guys thinking inside the caucus?
- 49:56Speaker 4: Are you guys seeing different polls than they're trying to
- 50:00Speaker 4: make everyone see outside, that it's going to be a
- 50:03Speaker 4: blue tsunami like they claim it's going to be?
- 50:08Speaker 27: Well, what I'm concerned about is apathy. I think these
- 50:10Speaker 27: negative ads, like you said, suppress the vote. I would
- 50:13Speaker 27: tell everybody every day, ask 10 friends that are Republican,
- 50:16Speaker 27: have you voted yet?
- 50:17Speaker 9: Have you voted? If we show up, Joe, we will win.
- 50:19Speaker 9: But it's going to be tight. It's going to be tough.
- 50:22Speaker 27: The biggest thing is get out the vote, get out
- 50:24Speaker 27: the vote, get out the vote.
- 50:25Speaker 4: All right, John. Thank you, sir. Campaign well, and we'll
- 50:28Speaker 4: talk to you again very soon.
- 50:29Speaker 20: All right.
- 50:31Speaker 4: God bless you.
- 50:31Speaker 9: Bye-bye.
- 50:33Speaker 4: Sad thing is I used to really enjoy talking to
- 50:36Speaker 4: his opponent, But somewhere in between, I really think it's
- 50:43Speaker 4: the Obama administration and it's Rahm Emanuel, it's Valerie Jarrett.
- 50:51Speaker 4: It's a lot of folks. That's the demarcation point where
- 50:54Speaker 4: Tom Perriello ran and he used to come on and
- 50:58Speaker 4: we would have really interesting debates on how to fix
- 51:05Speaker 4: health care and We could do it. And then by
- 51:08Speaker 4: the time he had been in Congress for a year,
- 51:11Speaker 4: he was just spouting talking points again. And it's what
- 51:16Speaker 4: we've lost a lot in this country. And that's why
- 51:21Speaker 4: they have to do vote suppression. Mark writes in to 434-882-4217. Joe,
- 51:29Speaker 4: I saw an ad that said John McGuire supports data centers. Mark,
- 51:36Speaker 4: I hate to tell you this, so do I. And
- 51:41Speaker 4: your text doesn't go into depth. Please come back. We're
- 51:44Speaker 4: coming up on the news here. But I've said this before,
- 51:47Speaker 4: and I'll say it again for you, Mark, and appreciate
- 51:51Speaker 4: you listening. I'm not debating because I disagree with the
- 51:56Speaker 4: point you make. I get why people say they don't
- 51:59Speaker 4: like data centers because you don't want surveillance. You don't want.
- 52:08Speaker 4: Even beyond surveillance, the monetization of your searching and marketing
- 52:17Speaker 4: adjuncts to it. But you can be protected in the
- 52:21Speaker 4: United States if these data centers are in the United
- 52:24Speaker 4: States by the Third and Fourth Amendment. There are cases
- 52:28Speaker 4: winding their way right now about that. As soon as
- 52:31Speaker 4: these data centers leave for China or Cuba, That's it.
- 52:39Speaker 4: Game over. It's just like flock cameras. We have laws
- 52:44Speaker 4: that restrict what flock cameras can do. And if law
- 52:46Speaker 4: enforcement personnel misuse them, that they need to be held account.
- 52:50Speaker 4: But I don't.
- 52:54Speaker 10: Hi, I'm Mark Falter with the Financial Fitness Show. Have
- 52:58Speaker 10: you been keeping up on the big, beautiful bill?
