- 0:51Speaker 4: Because there's big money. Understand that this has no nobility
- 0:55Speaker 4: in this, all this hate, all this rage that's coming
- 0:58Speaker 4: from the American left, it has nothing. And some of
- 1:03Speaker 4: it is play acting. And I'm sorry to say this.
- 1:07Speaker 4: What did we call it during the January sixth hearings,
- 1:11Speaker 4: the famous expression that Washington, DC is Hollywood for ugly people. Well,
- 1:18Speaker 4: you know, the January sixth hearings were daytime television for
- 1:21Speaker 4: ugly people and untalented actors. And this play acting, this
- 1:30Speaker 4: is bad Shakespeare, significant sound and fury signifying nothing more
- 1:39Speaker 4: than there's money at the end of the rainbow for
- 1:42Speaker 4: those who seek government subsidy. And this is all about
- 1:46Speaker 4: green energy, green energy, and green energy because that's where
- 1:56Speaker 4: the money is. That's where the money is. There's also
- 1:59Speaker 4: money in JEX, but the real money is in green
- 2:03Speaker 4: energy and the kickbacks that come with the subsidies and
- 2:09Speaker 4: the board of director's positions with six figure salaries from
- 2:13Speaker 4: my cousin, and all the corruptions. People who claim, oh
- 2:18Speaker 4: this is new and we've never seen the bull crap
- 2:22Speaker 4: faster than you can say teapot dome. This is wash
- 2:26Speaker 4: rinse repeat, same old, same hold. And whether it's the
- 2:30Speaker 4: city manager from Helena, Montana that you heard at the
- 2:33Speaker 4: onset of the program and her unhinged rant to Tim Sheehy,
- 2:41Speaker 4: the Senator after he had the temerity to vote for
- 2:45Speaker 4: the one big beautiful bill.
- 2:47Speaker 9: Right, this is Haley. I'm a constituent in Helena, Montana,
- 2:50Speaker 9: and I just wanted to let you know that you
- 2:52Speaker 9: are the most insufferable kind of calendar thief. You just
- 2:56Speaker 9: stripped away healthcare for seventeen million Americans.
- 2:59Speaker 4: And right there, right there, the money shot cut right
- 3:04Speaker 4: from Hollywood's central casting. None of it's about healthcare. It's
- 3:13Speaker 4: health care insurance, it's subsidy, it's kickpack and that's what
- 3:17Speaker 4: all this rage is about. And doesn't it break your
- 3:20Speaker 4: heart that people can be driven to this kind of
- 3:22Speaker 4: rage on an election day where maybe we encourage a
- 3:27Speaker 4: few more percentage of conservatives to get out and vote

- 13:32Speaker 4: And on an election day morning, polls have been opened
- 13:35Speaker 4: here in our home state for twenty minutes now and
- 13:39Speaker 4: there are no exit polls. Thank god we got rid
- 13:42Speaker 4: of exit I mean there is still exit polling going on,
- 13:44Speaker 4: and the political people are like, well, where is the
- 13:47Speaker 4: where's the votes or where are they coming in there?
- 13:51Speaker 4: But it really did a number on the two thousand
- 13:56Speaker 4: an election as well, and so with that in mind,
- 14:00Speaker 4: we will just wait till election nights. We have some
- 14:03Speaker 4: local coverage coming up there and of course we'll break
- 14:06Speaker 4: down the election results for you here first thing tomorrow
- 14:09Speaker 4: morning on the Talk Media Network all across Prop fifty
- 14:13Speaker 4: in California and all of that going. James Luck is
- 14:17Speaker 4: on with us fourth generation of the Luck family from
- 14:21Speaker 4: jcsgold dot com. How was your Monday, James? How much
- 14:25Speaker 4: mailing did you have to get done when you got
- 14:27Speaker 4: into the shop? First thing?
- 14:30Speaker 23: It was quite a busy day yesterday, Joe.
- 14:32Speaker 4: I'll be honest with you.
- 14:34Speaker 23: There were quite a few packages. It seemed like we
- 14:37Speaker 23: had a lot of clients across the country that were
- 14:38Speaker 23: taking advantage of the recent Dipican intolidation in gold and
- 14:43Speaker 23: silver that actually continues a little bit this morning. There's
- 14:47Speaker 23: still kind of sideways. Gold is dipped just slightly below
- 14:51Speaker 23: four thousand at three nine and ninety three dollars, down
- 14:55Speaker 23: just about two tenths of a percent yes today. So
- 14:57Speaker 23: far silver is down about a half of percent to
- 15:01Speaker 23: forty seven dollars and seventy five cents.
- 15:04Speaker 4: You know, these are those moments. Not that I know
- 15:06Speaker 4: anything about this outside of my association. You know, I
- 15:09Speaker 4: probably know more than the average lay person because of
- 15:12Speaker 4: how much you and I talk about this stuff, James.
- 15:15Speaker 4: But it just strikes me that for every day when
- 15:19Speaker 4: somebody says, Gosh, I wish I had gotten in. Well,
- 15:21Speaker 4: these are those days you wish you would have gotten in.
- 15:24Speaker 23: Right, absolutely, And you know, and that's why I always
- 15:28Speaker 23: tell people, and I know I've said this over and
- 15:30Speaker 23: over again, but you know, what we suggest to our
- 15:34Speaker 23: clients is is that you just buy the amount that
- 15:38Speaker 23: you are comfortable with, once a week, once a month,
- 15:41Speaker 23: whatever for you. You just slowly stack silver or gold
- 15:45Speaker 23: over time. And that really is the best way to
- 15:47Speaker 23: cost average in And you know, you just you just
- 15:50Speaker 23: build that stack of gold and silver and it's something
- 15:53Speaker 23: that you can use to head against the dollar and
- 15:55Speaker 23: you can pass down to future generations. But that really
- 15:58Speaker 23: is a smart way to do it.
- 15:59Speaker 4: Absolutely, And this is why I suggest you talk to
- 16:01Speaker 4: a family business, not a call center, not some you know, big,
- 16:05Speaker 4: you know, conglomerateive gold and silver organizations. This is a
- 16:09Speaker 4: family that's been doing this since nineteen sixty one. At
- 16:13Speaker 4: four three four nine seventy nine coin that's their number
- 16:17Speaker 4: after ten Eastern Standard time. And James Crew there at
- 16:22Speaker 4: jcsgold dot com. God bless you, sir, You have a
- 16:25Speaker 4: great morning. Thank you you too, jcsgold dot com. Joel
- 16:30Speaker 4: is hanging on the line with us. When we were
- 16:31Speaker 4: talking about how they go after the young people on
- 16:34Speaker 4: the campuses for these elections, as you're.
- 16:37Speaker 24: Truly wanting to get a message out that'll affect the
- 16:41Speaker 24: country in a positive way, and it's not necessarily censoring anybody.
- 16:46Speaker 24: But if you're going to put a trojan horse out there,
- 16:49Speaker 24: then at least have somebody behind that after interviewing somebody
- 16:53Speaker 24: that's going to unveil that trojan horse.
- 16:56Speaker 4: Sure, because you know what Nick Foyndes is saying is
- 16:59Speaker 4: is everything that's wrong in America is driven by our
- 17:04Speaker 4: support of Israel. And I've seen the argument. I've dug
- 17:08Speaker 4: into the argument. I've debunked the argument time and time again,
- 17:13Speaker 4: because that's like saying, you know, I beat you because
- 17:17Speaker 4: you didn't have my dinner on the table. Damn it.
- 17:19Speaker 4: Just just do what I tell you to do and
- 17:21Speaker 4: the beatings will stop. Or what's the what's the poster
- 17:24Speaker 4: I used to have in my studio. The floggings will
- 17:26Speaker 4: continue until morale improves. But that's the message of the Islamists,
- 17:31Speaker 4: these Jihads, the caliphate is that we will continue to
- 17:36Speaker 4: harm you, hurt you, destroy you. This is terrorism, and
- 17:40Speaker 4: it doesn't have to be Islamic terrorism. It can be
- 17:43Speaker 4: any kind of terrorism. It can be mafia terrorism. We're
- 17:47Speaker 4: going to keep breaking your stuff until you comply with us,
- 17:51Speaker 4: and that's what we should be fighting. And that's what
- 17:53Speaker 4: makes me angry about the modern democrat is that they can't,
- 17:57Speaker 4: through that ideological subversion Meov talked about, realize what they're
- 18:02Speaker 4: standing for, because they believe that they have to stand
- 18:06Speaker 4: for marginalized communities, the Israelites. The residents of Israel are prosperous,
- 18:14Speaker 4: and the residents of Gaza are not, so therefore they
- 18:17Speaker 4: must be a marginalized community. So therefore we must hate Israel.
- 18:22Speaker 4: And and it's it's insane, I mean literally, it requires
- 18:27Speaker 4: incarceration in a mental institution. I feel like I think
- 18:32Speaker 4: they have two different diseases.
- 18:34Speaker 24: The Democrats they have Stockholm syndrome and they have teds
- 18:40Speaker 24: and there and they and they like to sympathize what
- 18:45Speaker 24: their oppressors to make themselves better, to make themselves better.
- 18:49Speaker 4: Well, and there's always there's a nobility in being the oppressed,
- 18:53Speaker 4: So everyone wants to be oppressed, even though you're not.
- 18:57Speaker 1: Right.
- 18:58Speaker 4: And that's kind of what you were talking about. The
- 19:00Speaker 4: young people too, and why they target eighteen to twenty
- 19:02Speaker 4: four year olds, because these these young people are having
- 19:05Speaker 4: their first moment of hey, I get to have a say,
- 19:09Speaker 4: I get to you know, do something, and this is
- 19:12Speaker 4: where they infect them with the virus of doing something
- 19:17Speaker 4: equals voting for something rather than actually doing it. Hey,
- 19:21Speaker 4: that was easy. All I had to do is go vote,
- 19:23Speaker 4: and something happened and I can say I've worked for
- 19:26Speaker 4: social justice. Pretty cool by me, because they're playing on
- 19:30Speaker 4: all these weaknesses that young people still have because they
- 19:34Speaker 4: haven't been winnowed by life in the real world.
- 19:41Speaker 24: And COVID didn't help, because that was that was the
- 19:45Speaker 24: extra indoctrination period.
- 19:47Speaker 4: You know, don't just be scared of Christianity or freedom,
- 19:50Speaker 4: be scared of the bug that'll come and eat you
- 19:53Speaker 4: in the night. And you know, and this is why
- 19:55Speaker 4: I brought up the Christians and the Lions, and how
- 19:58Speaker 4: many Romans time they held another you know, Hey, let's
- 20:02Speaker 4: throw the Christians to the lions and see how their
- 20:04Speaker 4: faith holds up. And every time their faith held up
- 20:07Speaker 4: in the face of impending and predictable doom, more Romans
- 20:11Speaker 4: are like, what's this all about? Why do these guys
- 20:14Speaker 4: not cry and run and beg for mercy and and
- 20:18Speaker 4: that's what you know. Free people need to not cry
- 20:22Speaker 4: and run and beg for mercy. We need to stand
- 20:24Speaker 4: up and say, I'm a free man. You don't have
- 20:26Speaker 4: a right to do this to me. And if it
- 20:28Speaker 4: still brings on our impending doom at the moment, we
- 20:32Speaker 4: have to know that this will this will feed the
- 20:35Speaker 4: next line of defense because people will see it and say,
- 20:38Speaker 4: hold it, that's not liberty, that's not freedom. And so
- 20:45Speaker 4: you know, as they say, liberty is fed by the
- 20:48Speaker 4: blood of patriots. Sometimes we have to be the brave

- 20:54Speaker 4: I'm just going to tell people the truth. Joel. You
- 20:56Speaker 4: know that you've known me a long time.
- 21:00Speaker 24: Was that recording you had with Senator Tim Kane where
- 21:03Speaker 24: he said that inalienable rights aren't given You should replay that.
- 21:09Speaker 4: That that's classic. All right, Well here you go then, Joel,
- 21:14Speaker 4: this is Tim Kane. And don't come from the government,
- 21:18Speaker 4: but come from the creator.
- 21:20Speaker 24: That's what the Iranian government believes.
- 21:23Speaker 4: That's what the Iranian government believes.
- 21:26Speaker 7: So noble the eyebrow is the notion that rights don't
- 21:30Speaker 7: come from laws and don't come from the government, but
- 21:34Speaker 7: come from the creator.

- 23:37Speaker 25: your pets are microchipped with updated contact information in case

- 27:58Speaker 4: A message from FEMA and the.
- 28:11Speaker 1: Quick making Mornings great again. First Thing Today on the
- 28:15Speaker 1: Talk Media Network by Joe Thomas.
- 28:22Speaker 4: Thank you for letting us be of service to you
- 28:24Speaker 4: this morning at four three four eight eight two four
- 28:27Speaker 4: to two one seven. And this text message comes in
- 28:33Speaker 4: our earlier discussion about this battle over you know, this
- 28:39Speaker 4: is such a tempest in a teapot. Tucker Carlson interviewed
- 28:43Speaker 4: Nick Fuentes what like two weeks ago. Why are we
- 28:47Speaker 4: still involved in this except that the Marxists, the authoritarians
- 28:56Speaker 4: want to take Tucker Carlson down for daring to interview
- 29:01Speaker 4: somebody that has a viewpoint regarding America's situation with Israel
- 29:07Speaker 4: and not an uncommon one. And this is why I
- 29:10Speaker 4: stand for free speech, even in the light of it
- 29:13Speaker 4: being the free speech of somebody I find to be
- 29:16Speaker 4: a problematic soul like the King of the groupers is
- 29:27Speaker 4: And the text message, Joe, I love the phrase dumpster arsonists.
- 29:32Speaker 4: That's exactly what these people are. But you cannot deny
- 29:38Speaker 4: that Islamic terrorism is driven by people who want to
- 29:48Speaker 4: make you comply with their religious belief based on the
- 29:51Speaker 4: fact that we will kill anyone that doesn't. What do
- 29:54Speaker 4: you say about the fact that their own faith calls
- 29:57Speaker 4: on them to do violence against any one who doesn't believe.
- 30:04Speaker 4: And I point to the American Islamic Forum for Democracy
- 30:07Speaker 4: doctor Zudi Jasser that as most immigrant populations come from
- 30:17Speaker 4: places where there are polar positions on things, where your
- 30:26Speaker 4: religious belief or your political belief are hard kept, you're
- 30:32Speaker 4: going to have to check them at the door because
- 30:35Speaker 4: that you're not allowed to impose your religious dogma on
- 30:38Speaker 4: someone else in the United States. And there's a reason
- 30:44Speaker 4: you rail against this, and so you know, American Islamic
- 30:47Speaker 4: Forum for Democracy talks about how you can be a
- 30:50Speaker 4: faithful Muslim and an American citizen. I have friends who
- 30:58Speaker 4: are Italian American growing up in Queens that probably shouldn't
- 31:02Speaker 4: surprise you, and that when they go back to the
- 31:07Speaker 4: Old country, even some of them who left Italy as
- 31:10Speaker 4: a child or maybe their parents left as children and
- 31:13Speaker 4: they raised in the United States, they're viewed as not
- 31:17Speaker 4: Italian anymore because they've adopted American culture. Japan, same thing, Koreans,
- 31:24Speaker 4: you've adopted American beliefs. You're not insert whatever purity base
- 31:35Speaker 4: you want to talk about. And as Americans, we can't
- 31:41Speaker 4: then become just like that. You have to check your
- 31:46Speaker 4: biases and your bigotries at the door, because you're right
- 31:51Speaker 4: to believe that you're superior. I mean, there are sociologists
- 31:57Speaker 4: that will tell you some of the most racist races
- 32:01Speaker 4: on the planet are found in Southeast Asia when it
- 32:05Speaker 4: comes to the purity of this country or that country,
- 32:08Speaker 4: and where an American might see an Asian, they're like, oh, no,
- 32:13Speaker 4: he's from that country, and I don't want to get
- 32:15Speaker 4: into you know which countries think what? But you know
- 32:19Speaker 4: it's it's a battle royale in Asia to see which
- 32:22Speaker 4: race is more racist towards the other Asian races. We
- 32:27Speaker 4: look at the Chinese towards the Wigers. So we don't
- 32:34Speaker 4: have a clue on it. But Dean, to your point,
- 32:40Speaker 4: the American Islamic Forum for Democracy says, you know, if
- 32:43Speaker 4: you don't want to do business with somebody because they're
- 32:46Speaker 4: not Muslim, that's your right as an American. Now, unfortunately,
- 32:51Speaker 4: these Islamists are supporting a democratic party that wants to
- 32:55Speaker 4: force you to have to do business with somebody. How
- 32:57Speaker 4: come nobody ever does that. We always have the LGBTQ
- 33:02Speaker 4: crowd march into a Christian bakery and say you need
- 33:06Speaker 4: to make me a gay Pride Fallos cake. Nobody ever
- 33:12Speaker 4: does that. You know, nobody walks into a Muslim bakery
- 33:15Speaker 4: and says, I want you to bake me a cake
- 33:16Speaker 4: that looks like a giant piece of bacon, or I
- 33:23Speaker 4: want you to make me a blt. And if you
- 33:25Speaker 4: don't make me a BLT right now, mister Muslim deli owner,
- 33:29Speaker 4: I am going to call the ACLU on you. You
- 33:38Speaker 4: have the right to believe and act as you like
- 33:40Speaker 4: until it impacts someone else. You can't kill, it, can't hurt,
- 33:43Speaker 4: can't harm, can't damage anyone else because they have the
- 33:47Speaker 4: right to live the same as you do. And I
- 33:49Speaker 4: don't care what your text says. And this is where
- 33:52Speaker 4: the establishment of Sharia courts in the United States that
- 33:56Speaker 4: run parallel to the America court system is so dangerous
- 34:04Speaker 4: because now you're permitting the concept that you can, you know,
- 34:08Speaker 4: have a mercy killing, or you can have a stoning
- 34:10Speaker 4: or some other textual thing. There are things in the
- 34:15Speaker 4: Old Testament that like, okay, I'm not stoning him for
- 34:19Speaker 4: wearing two fabrics. You have to understand America's concept of
- 34:30Speaker 4: you have a free world to live in and nobody
- 34:33Speaker 4: can make you. And keep in mind the group that
- 34:37Speaker 4: most Islamists kill are other Muslims simply for not being
- 34:43Speaker 4: as faithful. I mean the Sunni and the Shea or
- 34:46Speaker 4: amazing example of that. And so you know, as we say,
- 34:57Speaker 4: come and assimilate and you can keep culturally. I mean,
- 35:01Speaker 4: you know, little Italy, Chinatown, all these places that I'm
- 35:05Speaker 4: sure they'll lift be like, you can't call it that anymore.
- 35:12Speaker 4: They that they they they come along and they are wonderful,
- 35:16Speaker 4: marvelous places of you know, where you can enjoy the
- 35:20Speaker 4: American version of some ethnic culture. It's amazing Jewish delis
- 35:27Speaker 4: and the things are the kindishes I used to eat
- 35:30Speaker 4: as a kid outside of Basine High School. Amazing same
- 35:33Speaker 4: ones that Mayor Adams and Jordan belforty truck right outside
- 35:39Speaker 4: they used to sell all the best kindishes and then
- 35:42Speaker 4: the park behind it. I won't tell you what else
- 35:44Speaker 4: was being sold there, but it made you want more kindishes. Anyway,
- 35:47Speaker 4: let me get to you at four three, four eight eight,
- 35:49Speaker 4: two four two one seven. Good morning? Who's this Joe Clark?
- 35:54Speaker 4: Morning Clark? What's going on? Just another day in Paradise.
- 35:59Speaker 8: I ain't got as much going on as y'all do.
- 36:00Speaker 8: Go vote table, all right, So on the racism in
- 36:07Speaker 8: Southeast Asia? Now, Joe, I don't know what the closest
- 36:12Speaker 8: town to Fishersville is, but here in Alabama, Crossville is
- 36:18Speaker 8: about six miles as the crow flies from Geraldine. If
- 36:24Speaker 8: you want to know what's wrong with the people in Geraldine,
- 36:27Speaker 8: ask the folks in Crustell.
- 36:29Speaker 4: They'll let you know.
- 36:31Speaker 8: Conversely, if you want to know what's wrong with the
- 36:33Speaker 8: people in Crossville, ask the people in Geraldine. They'll tell you.
- 36:38Speaker 8: Bo Az and Albertville are both on the Highway four
- 36:41Speaker 8: thirty one, and you have to look for the sign
- 36:45Speaker 8: to know when you've left one and gone into the other.
- 36:50Speaker 8: People from Albertville will gladly tell you that if a
- 36:55Speaker 8: man and a woman get a divorce in Boaz, they
- 36:59Speaker 8: might not be husband and lost anymore, but their still
- 37:01Speaker 8: brothers and sister.
- 37:03Speaker 4: So you know, I didn't even hear that one coming
- 37:07Speaker 4: up the railway tracks.
- 37:09Speaker 23: So I think that's just people.
- 37:12Speaker 11: Joe.
- 37:13Speaker 8: Oh, I don't think Southeast a has got me now.
- 37:16Speaker 4: You know, if you want to know what's wrong.
- 37:18Speaker 8: With somebody from a Latin American country, you ask somebody
- 37:21Speaker 8: from the neighbor And I don't know.
- 37:25Speaker 29: I think that's just all over the world. No on
- 37:28Speaker 29: this pancreatic cancer Wisher reckon how much as it prop
- 37:35Speaker 29: she had to listen to.
- 37:38Speaker 4: To get to that point. Joe, Oh, I mean just
- 37:41Speaker 4: just the opening agent. You know, you're taking healthcare away
- 37:44Speaker 4: from seventeen million people, and you know, I was. I
- 37:48Speaker 4: was surprised she didn't go into the other you know
- 37:51Speaker 4: saw that they throw out there, which is our neighbors
- 37:54Speaker 4: are being rounded up because of you and taken to
- 37:58Speaker 4: a concentration camp. This is the phrase they use.

- 39:07Speaker 15: few bioavailable and highly absorbable curcumin products on the market.
- 39:13Speaker 15: I am doctor Mitch. Since most chronic diseases have inflammation,
- 39:18Speaker 15: our optimized curcumin seems to be a perfect addition to
- 39:22Speaker 15: any nutritional program. It makes sense to me that preventing
- 39:27Speaker 15: or reducing inflammation is a key component to our overall health.
- 39:32Speaker 15: The Mayo Clinic found that kurcumin can decrease swelling and inflammation,
- 39:37Speaker 15: has antioxidant properties, and research suggests that kurcumin can prevent
- 39:42Speaker 15: cancer or at least slow the spread of cancer, and
- 39:46Speaker 15: in many instances, make chemotherapy more effective. It protects our
- 39:51Speaker 15: healthy cells even from radiation. Total wellness dot com where

- 41:02Speaker 32: on a farm in Tennessee, I've been fascinated with animals.
- 41:05Speaker 32: I'm not only in awe of their beauty and kindness,
- 41:07Speaker 32: but also their tireless work ethic. Just look at the
- 41:09Speaker 32: birds who gather supplies to build nests, or Swiss foxes
- 41:13Speaker 32: who work hard to provide for their young, or penguins
- 41:15Speaker 32: who travel up to five hundred miles to secure food
- 41:18Speaker 32: for their families, or bush babies whose impressive jump allows
- 41:21Speaker 32: them to navigate the trees and the wild in search
- 41:23Speaker 32: of fruit. This remarkable work ethic is shared by our
- 41:26Speaker 32: best friends, the canines. We know dogs are wonderful pets
- 41:30Speaker 32: at home, but because of their acute senses. They also
- 41:33Speaker 32: perform life saving work every day. Dogs keep us safe
- 41:36Speaker 32: at airports. They comfort returning veterans, some of whom suffer
- 41:38Speaker 32: from PTSS. They work with diabetics, alerting them when there's
- 41:42Speaker 32: a change in their blood chemistry. Working dogs have a
- 41:44Speaker 32: variety of highly trained roles that contribute to society and
- 41:47Speaker 32: help those in need. So please join me an American

- 44:58Speaker 4: defend to the death is right to do it. Here
- 45:01Speaker 4: on First Thing Today by Joe Thomas. An election day
- 45:04Speaker 4: in so many corners of the country. I want to
- 45:07Speaker 4: take a moment book called Common Sense, How to Get
- 45:12Speaker 4: the Stink out of Politics, And I think if there's
- 45:15Speaker 4: ever a book whose time has come, Philip Whittaker has
- 45:18Speaker 4: pended for us and he's on with us this week. Philip,
- 45:21Speaker 4: Welcome to the show. How are you doing, sir. I'm
- 45:25Speaker 4: doing well, Joe, Thank you for having me on a
- 45:27Speaker 4: civil discourse. And unfortunately the phrase triggers a lot of
- 45:31Speaker 4: people in our circle because when we hear it frequently
- 45:36Speaker 4: it is from somebody saying, well, we just want you
- 45:38Speaker 4: to listen to us and stop disagreeing with us. And
- 45:43Speaker 4: it has been a frustrating thing for me because I
- 45:46Speaker 4: like listening to people. I love having people having a
- 45:49Speaker 4: different idea than I do. I find it troublesome when
- 45:53Speaker 4: they think that if I have a different idea or
- 45:55Speaker 4: don't just see the sense of whatever it is, they're
- 45:59Speaker 4: saying that I'm I'm somehow being obtuse, I'm being argumentative
- 46:04Speaker 4: or that kind of thing, even if I haven't engaged
- 46:07Speaker 4: in a conversation about it or debate about it. Philip,
- 46:11Speaker 4: you know, so, how do we get back to civil
- 46:14Speaker 4: discourse without it meaning just agree with the left and
- 46:17Speaker 4: sit down?
- 46:19Speaker 14: Well, Joe, it takes it, obviously takes two people to
- 46:24Speaker 14: have a fight and learning not to respond to.
- 46:29Speaker 21: Their Uh, we don't have to transparent.
- 46:37Speaker 14: But you're right about the fact that the folks on
- 46:41Speaker 14: the left seem to think that not nonpartisan means they win.
- 46:47Speaker 4: And it's just.
- 46:49Speaker 14: It's kind of kind of reminds me of what remember
- 46:52Speaker 14: George Orwell in the book Animal Farm years ago, Oh yeah,
- 46:56Speaker 14: I remember Napoleon the pig was asked one of the
- 47:00Speaker 14: other animals says, wait a minute, it looks like you
- 47:02Speaker 14: guys get a lot more than the rest of us.
- 47:04Speaker 14: I thought we're supposed to all be equal here and Napoleon.
- 47:07Speaker 14: The big says, well, we are, but some of us
- 47:10Speaker 14: are more equal than others.
- 47:12Speaker 4: Thees I wish more kids read animal form.
- 47:16Speaker 14: Yeah really, but no I think that. And I found
- 47:20Speaker 14: my own experience that in many cases, not all, but
- 47:24Speaker 14: in many cases if we approach people from an aspect
- 47:29Speaker 14: of look, I want to have a discussion here, to
- 47:31Speaker 14: have a civil discussion. I'm not going to attack you,
- 47:36Speaker 14: but let's talk about things. And the other thing is
- 47:39Speaker 14: that people respond to that. But the other thing, too,
- 47:42Speaker 14: is let's get down below the issues to the principles
- 47:48Speaker 14: that drive these issues, because where that's where we find agreement.
- 47:53Speaker 14: Even if we differ on issues, on the principles we
- 47:58Speaker 14: really care about. If we can get to that, we're
- 48:01Speaker 14: going to lay aside the political agenda long enough to
- 48:04Speaker 14: get to the principles that drive that, we'd find that
- 48:08Speaker 14: there's a very broad agreement on so many things.
- 48:12Speaker 4: Well, let me ask you this, because what you were
- 48:14Speaker 4: telling you, it struck me that one of the things
- 48:16Speaker 4: about trying to have civil discourse with someone lately it
- 48:21Speaker 4: has been this guilt by association. I'm not having a
- 48:24Speaker 4: conversation with you. They're coming to me and saying, well,
- 48:27Speaker 4: I heard you talking to Philip Whitaker, and he is
- 48:29Speaker 4: thus and such a do you defend him, you know,
- 48:33Speaker 4: or do you denounce him? And so many of our
- 48:37Speaker 4: conversations are about a third party that's not even in
- 48:40Speaker 4: the conversation. Is that a problem as well from where
- 48:43Speaker 4: you said, Philip, Well, yeah, it.
- 48:46Speaker 14: Is, it really is. In fact, I talk to a
- 48:49Speaker 14: lot of people about In fact, I was having a
- 48:51Speaker 14: conversation with someone the other day and they start, well,
- 48:54Speaker 14: I can't talk to you because of you know, Trump,
- 48:56Speaker 14: just for Trump that. But what we're getting from people,
- 49:00Speaker 14: I think, is they are not telling us what they think.
- 49:05Speaker 14: They are telling us how they feel about what someone
- 49:08Speaker 14: else said. And we need to get that conversation back
- 49:14Speaker 14: to me and you rather than you know, second and
- 49:17Speaker 14: third hand and stuff.
- 49:19Speaker 18: See.
- 49:19Speaker 14: No, no, let's talk about what you think and say
- 49:23Speaker 14: that clearly, because we're being taught by the legacy media
- 49:28Speaker 14: now to respond. People are taught to respond by feelings
- 49:32Speaker 14: rather than thinking and if the emotion, and that's because
- 49:36Speaker 14: emotion can drive an agenda a lot more radically than thinking.
- 49:42Speaker 4: Kih, Well, it certainly it goes to what do they
- 49:45Speaker 4: call it, the reptilian center of the brain, and it's
- 49:50Speaker 4: sloth to agree to go. I don't want to convince you.
- 49:52Speaker 4: I want to enrage you. Let your rage fuel you.
- 49:55Speaker 4: Philip Whittaker, author of Common Sense, You find them Llanguage
- 50:00Speaker 4: of Liberty dot us. Breaking news out of Wyoming. Former
- 50:06Speaker 4: Vice President Dick Cheney has passed away, and he had
- 50:11Speaker 4: been ill for some time, age of eighty four. Is
- 50:17Speaker 4: Cheney passing away? His family issuing a statement read it
- 50:22Speaker 4: to you. For decades, Dick Cheney served our nation, including
- 50:26Speaker 4: White House Chief of Staff, Wyoming's congressman, Secretary of Defense,
- 50:31Speaker 4: and Vice President of the United States, and at the
- 50:36Speaker 4: last few years polarizing as one of the voices of
- 50:41Speaker 4: the Republicans, leaving the party over the presidence of Donald
- 50:47Speaker 4: Trump in the party. Never mind his position winning any elections,
- 50:51Speaker 4: that Donald Trump would be even allowed to run for
- 50:56Speaker 4: an office, was enough to drive his daughter Liz onto
- 51:01Speaker 4: the January sixth panel, ignoring the FBI agents, etc. And
- 51:08Speaker 4: then out of the party to endorse and campaign for
- 51:13Speaker 4: Kamala Harris years later, and certainly a polarizing figure. And
- 51:19Speaker 4: you can't forget that position. And it'll be interesting to
- 51:23Speaker 4: see as we had to break here and the news
- 51:25Speaker 4: coming up. I'm sure the national news headlines will cover
- 51:28Speaker 4: this as well. It'll be interesting, from where I said,
- 51:33Speaker 4: to see how political leaders who for years painted Dick
- 51:38Speaker 4: Cheney out to be satan himself, especially the puppet master
- 51:44Speaker 4: of the Bush presidency and the vilification of Dick Cheney.
- 51:50Speaker 4: It will be interesting to watch all of these folks
- 51:53Speaker 4: who now are in the political party that his daughter
- 51:56Speaker 4: embraced because it doesn't have Donald Trump in it. It
- 52:05Speaker 4: will be interesting to see how they speak in all
- 52:08Speaker 4: of the way that I was curious when I was
- 52:11Speaker 4: watching Ronald Reagan's funeral and there was Mikhayl garbage Chef. Now,
- 52:15Speaker 4: he didn't get up there and say I always loved
- 52:17Speaker 4: Ronald Reagan. Ronald Reagan is a great No, I mean
- 52:20Speaker 4: he was there just because their comrade ship, if I'll
- 52:24Speaker 4: use that phrase, had to find a generation, really, And
- 52:32Speaker 4: he didn't get up there and try to lay out
- 52:34Speaker 4: platitudes that I've always loved the man or anything like that.
- 52:38Speaker 4: But it'll be curious to watch the statements as they
- 52:41Speaker 4: start to come in on the passage of Dick Cheney
- 52:44Speaker 4: at the age of eighty four this election day morning.
- 52:47Speaker 4: Here on first Thing Today by the Talk Media Network and.
