Speaker 2: Man, it was it was an exciting it was an
0:35
Speaker 2: exciting time. But before we get to that, let me
0:38
Speaker 2: extend my prayers to you brother.
0:39
Speaker 1: Oh.
0:40
Speaker 2: Thanks is no joke. And of course I've been listening
0:44
Speaker 2: to your show.
0:45
Speaker 1: Yeah, and I apologize for you. I'm not looking for Symbothy.
0:50
Speaker 1: I'm just trying to explain myself because I really do
0:53
Speaker 1: not feel as though I am making any sense. But
0:55
Speaker 1: that's part of the brain fog I've got. I just
0:58
Speaker 1: it's like I'm in some sort of you know, parallel universe.
1:01
Speaker 1: That's why I had Joe play moving in stereo by
1:03
Speaker 1: the cars earlier, because that's exactly see in this morning.
1:07
Speaker 1: So but I appreciate the the well wishes the Christopher,
1:12
Speaker 1: I truly do. And for all the others who have said.
1:14
Speaker 2: Well I'm a text. Yeah, I'm gonna take up the
1:17
Speaker 2: banner here gladly. There's so much to talk about. I'm
1:21
Speaker 2: going to start with Senator Josh Howley this Senate hearing
1:27
Speaker 2: where he was asking an OBG I in a simple
1:29
Speaker 2: question this week and if people people should google this
1:33
Speaker 2: because I think it really gives you insight on where
1:37
Speaker 2: parts of the Democratic Party politically are located in their minds.
1:42
Speaker 2: But he asked the question simply, can a man get pregnant?
1:48
Speaker 2: And it stumped her, Like I thought she was going
1:51
Speaker 2: to say, oh, no, that's impossible. She was like, well,
1:56
Speaker 2: let me think about that. Why are you asking me
1:58
Speaker 2: that question? And then the said I thought we were
2:01
Speaker 2: going to have a discussion about science, and so in
2:04
Speaker 2: order for us to have that, we just want to
2:06
Speaker 2: establish something here right upfront. Can men get pregnant? She
2:13
Speaker 2: refused to answer that question, and on the backdrop of
2:17
Speaker 2: the Supreme Court justices and The hearing on whether dudes
2:22
Speaker 2: can be in swimming pools, can be on tennis courts,
2:26
Speaker 2: can be on soccer fields, you know, can they play
2:30
Speaker 2: field hockey? You name it? Can dudes compete against women
2:36
Speaker 2: was debated at the Supreme Court level. I have lived
2:40
Speaker 2: long enough to see it all. My grandfather, grandmother, our
2:44
Speaker 2: forefathers are turning over in their graves right now because
2:49
Speaker 2: we're debating things that are common sense. Right, I can
2:53
Speaker 2: support which I do the LGBTQ plus community. I do.
2:58
Speaker 2: I have a son who is gay, I have a
3:00
Speaker 2: brother who is gay. That's not my issue. My issue
3:04
Speaker 2: is fairness. Women should have safe places to compete in
3:10
Speaker 2: the in the in the video that I sent you,
3:13
Speaker 2: Ryan Thomas, I would not want a dude in the
3:16
Speaker 2: pool with Camille swimming yesterday for district championships. I don't
3:21
Speaker 2: want it. I don't. They don't deserve it. De seat
3:23
Speaker 2: and girls do not deserve it. I don't care what
3:26
Speaker 2: swim team is out there. You were a swimmer, and
3:29
Speaker 2: I'm just saying we've really lost our minds in this
3:32
Speaker 2: past week between the question but from the Senator can
3:35
Speaker 2: a man get pregnant? The OBG I went ob g
3:39
Speaker 2: y N would not answer, and the and the Supreme
3:42
Speaker 2: Court hearing on on dudes playing sports against women. This
3:49
Speaker 2: was a this was a this was a wacky week.
3:52
Speaker 1: It most surely was. And you know, I know what
3:56
Speaker 1: the left struggles with on this one, because they've been
3:58
Speaker 1: going around telling everyone who would bother to listen that
4:01
Speaker 1: by merely declaring that you were the opposite sex, that
4:04
Speaker 1: we all must we al, must embrace the idea that
4:08
Speaker 1: you no longer are your former sex, that you are
4:11
Speaker 1: now if a man claims to be a woman, that
4:13
Speaker 1: you are now actually a woman. And we know that
4:16
Speaker 1: is insane, Christopher, And the idea that we're even having
4:18
Speaker 1: a conversation on this is just mind blowing. You know,
4:22
Speaker 1: it ain't that difficult. We got chromosomal reality, and they're
4:25
Speaker 1: in is where the inquiries should stop, period. And this
4:29
Speaker 1: whole idea about fairness, this whole idea by fairness. Hey, Christopher,
4:33
Speaker 1: I'm not sure about you, but you know I never
4:36
Speaker 1: was a basketball player. You know what copedi against men
4:39
Speaker 1: in basketball? That's a laugh. Five', ten didn't have the,
4:42
Speaker 1: skills don't even really understand the. GAME i guess it's
4:44
Speaker 1: unfair THAT i can't join the basketball team because, well,
4:47
Speaker 1: why well you suck you, KNOW i, mean nobody wants
4:52
Speaker 1: you on the. Team, man you're gonna be the last
4:54
Speaker 1: person picked in dodgeball, too for all it. Matters but you,
4:57
Speaker 1: know it's just it's built into the. Equation some people
5:00
Speaker 1: excel and others do. Not you have women who have
5:03
Speaker 1: proven themselves to be the best in their. Sport, yes
5:07
Speaker 1: along comes some guy with a chromosomal, advantage a size
5:12
Speaker 1: and string and speed, advantage and takes that away from
5:15
Speaker 1: her because you AND i are supposed to believe that
5:18
Speaker 1: that guy is now actually a, woman just because he says.
5:22
Speaker 1: So and going back to SOMETHING i made a point
5:24
Speaker 1: of many many, times you say you're a support of
5:26
Speaker 1: THE lgbtq. Community you got a son who's. GAY i
5:28
Speaker 1: understand that gay is, sexuality it isn't. Gender And i'm
5:33
Speaker 1: gonna bring this up again BECAUSE i want someone to
5:35
Speaker 1: answer this for, Me Christopher. Smith and maybe you're the.
5:37
Speaker 1: Man if you are a man and you claim to
5:39
Speaker 1: be a woman and go into the women's locker, room
5:41
Speaker 1: does that mean that you're not attracted to? Women, no it.
5:45
Speaker 1: Doesn't you don't.
5:46
Speaker 2: Know i'm gonna. Say i'm saying you're still a.
5:49
Speaker 1: Dude you're still a.
5:50
Speaker 2: Dude dress on and you walk into, that into that.
5:54
Speaker 2: Shower as a matter of, Fact, brian there are a
5:56
Speaker 2: lot of men that would just put a dress on
5:59
Speaker 2: to go into that lit really to shower with ten
6:02
Speaker 2: or fifty e live in.
6:04
Speaker 1: Mekid, Right, yeah, YEAH.
6:06
Speaker 2: I mean if you, can putting on the dress doesn't
6:09
Speaker 2: change your. Gender and that's what was so profound about
6:14
Speaker 2: the senator's, question which was just so. Simple he, said
6:18
Speaker 2: can men get? Pregnant and she refused to answer the.
6:22
Speaker 2: Question and it's on the ballot for Vek ramaswami who
6:25
Speaker 2: was running for. Governor, right you just saw this In.
6:28
Speaker 2: Virginia you, know there were two gubernatorial. Races Barack obattle
6:33
Speaker 2: went there endorsed THE i have to get in here
6:36
Speaker 2: to some identity, politics but he endorsed the white female
6:41
Speaker 2: running against The African american. Woman when he was When
6:46
Speaker 2: Kamala harris was on the, ballot he was asserting that
6:49
Speaker 2: if you weren't you're not, black if you weren't Supporting Kamala. Harris,
6:53
Speaker 2: Right and Sometimes i'm looking At President Barack obama, saying,
6:56
Speaker 2: dude there was an opportunity to elect for the first
7:00
Speaker 2: time An African american governor for the. Country and So i'm,
7:05
Speaker 2: going what are you? Doing and then her first action
7:09
Speaker 2: we're talking now the right Female democrat who was, elected
7:13
Speaker 2: was to do what executive orders In virginia to push Out. Ice,
7:19
Speaker 2: right this is what scares me WHEN i think about
7:21
Speaker 2: the the Zk ramaswami. Race this is a critical race
7:27
Speaker 2: state Of. Ohio we must elect the Vek ramaswami in
7:32
Speaker 2: order for us to protect our common sense. Values dudes
7:38
Speaker 2: not playing in sports In ohio against our girls and our, women, period.
7:44
Speaker 1: Period end of. Story and, HONESTLY i think about you,
7:49
Speaker 1: know if you're a mom or a dad and you've
7:51
Speaker 1: got a daughter who is participating in one of these you,
7:53
Speaker 1: know very intensive, sports ones where size and speed and
7:57
Speaker 1: strength do have a critical, factor is a critical or
8:00
Speaker 1: or a critical, factor and whether you're going to succeed or,
8:02
Speaker 1: not how could any one of those parents embrace the
8:06
Speaker 1: idea of bringing boys in to compete against your. DAUGHTER
8:09
Speaker 1: i just don't get. IT i really don't.
8:12
Speaker 2: THINK i, Mean camille gave up her whole. Holiday h
8:15
Speaker 2: they have this hell week. Swim you were a, SWIMMER i,
8:19
Speaker 2: was but you, know how hard it. Is you, know

8:27
Speaker 2: Hours And Jody schaeffer and their coach At seaton doesn't.
8:30
Speaker 2: PLAY i, mean the girls are going through a very hard,
8:34
Speaker 2: regiment you, Know and so you, Know i'm not exactly

Speaker 2: you are, right and so to show up to the
8:41
Speaker 2: pool and have a man or a boy in the
8:44
Speaker 2: pool From elder or From sanak swimming against, her are
8:49
Speaker 2: any of the girls from any of the sports. Programs
8:52
Speaker 2: it's just not. Fair NOTICE i emphasize the word. Fair
8:56
Speaker 2: women deserve faith places and fairness in their. Sports that's
9:02
Speaker 2: what this is. About and men shouldn't be. Competing but guess,
9:05
Speaker 2: what it's on the ballot In, ohio just like it's
9:08
Speaker 2: on the ballot In, virginia just like it's on the
9:11

9:15
Speaker 2: sure that we hold the line in this gubernatorial, race
9:20
Speaker 2: and we're electing the Vek ramaswami to the. STATE i
9:23

Speaker 1: saving me from my chemo Brain i'm dealing with, today
9:52
Speaker 1: just real. Quickly you don't need to continue on the subject.
9:54
Speaker 1: Matter but over the break THERE i Learned Jos drecker
9:56
Speaker 1: has always been very sad and unhappy because it was
9:59
Speaker 1: his goal to be a prima ballerina and he just
10:03
Speaker 1: doesn't have the records of skill sets to be a prima.
10:05
Speaker 1: Ballerina of, course they don't let men in tutus with toashoes,
10:12

10:15
Speaker 2: Go now, listen, BROTHER i saw you know you know
10:21
Speaker 2: THAT i am a Devoted.
10:23
Speaker 1: CHRISTIAN i know you know, That YES i.
10:25
Speaker 2: Do of COURSE i always fall. Short my, wife my late,
10:28
Speaker 2: wife was a Devoted. Christian AND i watched something that
10:35
Speaker 2: blew me, away and that was What Don lemon did
10:38
Speaker 2: with the protesters by you, know going in and protesting
10:43
Speaker 2: yesterday in a church In. Minnesota and if people haven't
10:47
Speaker 2: seen this, video it is absolutely. Viral and they're going
10:52
Speaker 2: in and they are cussing out the parishioners during. Service
10:58
Speaker 2: they're cussing out children during the, Service they're cussing out
11:02
Speaker 2: women during the. Service they're going off on the pastor
11:05
Speaker 2: during the. Service we have a right and have protections
11:11
Speaker 2: over our. Churches they are safe, places they are hard read.
11:15
Speaker 2: Lines and so to see these protesters going into a
11:19
Speaker 2: church service and screaming at, people and people are waking
11:23
Speaker 2: up listening to your show right now and they don't
11:25
Speaker 2: even know What i'm talking, about but they will by
11:28
Speaker 2: the time they get to the end of the day
11:29
Speaker 2: because not that the not that the liberal media is
11:32
Speaker 2: going to cover. It But i'm telling, YOU i was
11:35
Speaker 2: really really. Offended there was another scene where the church
11:40
Speaker 2: goers were walking down the sidewalk and they were cussing
11:43
Speaker 2: them out as they walked to. Church so these protesters
11:48
Speaker 2: In minnesota are taking everything to a whole another, level,
11:52
Speaker 2: Right and they're deciding now that if you're at church
11:56
Speaker 2: and you're not out protesting with, them then they can
11:59
Speaker 2: come in your church and they can disrupt your. SERVICES
12:03
Speaker 2: i think all of them should be arrested. TODAY i
12:06
Speaker 2: think the federal government should press charges Against Don. Lemon
12:11
Speaker 2: AND i can't just say how, frustrated, upset DISGUSTED i
12:17
Speaker 2: was by watching what they did to those church goers.
12:20
Speaker 1: Yesterday, WELL i know that The department Of justice has
12:25
Speaker 1: opened an investigation into that church protest to find out
12:28
Speaker 1: whether civil rights laws were, Violated and sounds to me
12:31
Speaker 1: like they probably, are but more fundamentally in or. Nefarious
12:33
Speaker 1: and then are they Anti christian in addition to being
12:37
Speaker 1: pro illegal immigrant rapist kind of? People are they also
12:40
Speaker 1: Anti christian that they wouldn't allow a Peaceful christian celebration
12:46
Speaker 1: well of religion on A.
12:47
Speaker 2: Sunday on A, Sunday and everybody please listen to this.
12:52
Speaker 2: Piece churches take this stuff right now really. Serious they
12:57
Speaker 2: typically have armed, guards they have deacon's deacon if his
13:01
Speaker 2: people are usually now in our churches are having. Weapons
13:05
Speaker 2: it's unfortunate because we have people now who are doing
13:09
Speaker 2: this kind of. Stuff this is really a recipe for.
13:13
Speaker 2: Disaster they're gonna go into a church because you can't
13:16
Speaker 2: determine what those people are gonna. Do Brian thomas start
13:20
Speaker 2: doing it yelling and they start doing. It what happens
13:23
Speaker 2: when somebody goes into a church Where Brian thomas is.
13:27

13:43
Speaker 2: Church i'm telling, you they're going to do this to
13:45
Speaker 2: the wrong, church and something bad is going to. Happen
13:48
Speaker 2: that's what happened.
13:49
Speaker 1: One i'm convinced that is exactly what they. Want they
13:53
Speaker 1: were looking for their their their their martyr in this,
13:56
Speaker 1: uh in this ice action Against Renee. Good they were
13:58

14:05
Speaker 1: hit AN ice. Officer sorry sucks to be. You it's
14:08
Speaker 1: Like George, floyd he didn't turn out to be this,
14:10

19:07
Speaker 2: Venezuela there's no WAY i want to live there as
19:10
Speaker 2: An African american. Period this is the greatest country on the,
19:15
Speaker 2: planet and this is why so many people are trying
19:18

19:22
Speaker 2: Now we're not trying to go To. Columbia we're not
19:24

19:36
Speaker 2: get out of here go somewhere. Else that's what you should.
19:40
Speaker 2: Do you know this notion that you know you can
19:43
Speaker 2: just burn our flags On mlkday in on this kind
19:48

Speaker 2: streets and urinate on our, flag or you can. Kneel,
19:54
Speaker 2: yeah you have the right to do all those things
19:56
Speaker 2: in the great experiment because there are people who died
19:59
Speaker 2: in Life World war, two so you have the ability
20:02
Speaker 2: to do something like, that you. Know but the reality
20:05
Speaker 2: of it is that On Martin Luther King, day we
20:08
Speaker 2: should be talking about how CAN i be a better?
20:10
Speaker 2: Father DO i know my? Children AM i paying my child?
20:15
Speaker 2: Support why is there an open warrn out for my?
20:18

20:22
Speaker 2: BECAUSE i haven't been paying paying child, support stop blaming the.
20:25
Speaker 2: Woman what you need to do is don't pay your
20:28
Speaker 2: child support because their children who are. Suffering and this
20:32
Speaker 2: is what frustrates. Me we have to own these fatherless.
20:36
Speaker 2: Homes as we talk ABOUT, mlk nothing will turn, Around Brian,
20:40
Speaker 2: thomas in our, society in our, country In america if
20:44
Speaker 2: we do not focus on our families and making them.
20:48
Speaker 2: Stronger and that's not something a cop can, do and
20:50
Speaker 2: it's not something a teacher can. Do only mom and
20:53
Speaker 2: dad can do, It Brian, thomas only mom and. Dad
20:56
Speaker 2: so every speech THAT i hear today that Most i'm a,
21:01
Speaker 2: victim you're a. VICTIM i hate my country in some
21:05
Speaker 2: kind of. Way somebody owes me reparations for something that
21:09
Speaker 2: didn't happen to. Me i'm letting you know right, now
21:12
Speaker 2: you're off message for Doctor Martin Luther. King he didn't
21:17
Speaker 2: preach it when he was, alive and he'd be turning
21:19
Speaker 2: over in his grave if he was watching what was
21:22
Speaker 2: happening right. Now seventy people murdered In cincinnati last, year
21:26
Speaker 2: and the super super majority of them are All African.
21:30
Speaker 2: Americans what would you think Doctor king would say about
21:33
Speaker 2: the number of black men who are picking up guns
21:37
Speaker 2: and killing each. Other he wouldn't, say, oh let's blame the,
21:39
Speaker 2: gun it was the gun's. Fault, no he would, say
21:43
Speaker 2: there's a deterioration in the community and the family and
21:46
Speaker 2: the fathers with these boys who are turning into men
21:49
Speaker 2: who are shooting people at sixteen and fourteen years of.
21:52
Speaker 2: Age we've got to address this in every speech from
21:55
Speaker 2: every quarner Of america and stop making excuses for bad.
22:00
Speaker 1: Behavior, well it's hard to unlearn the religion that most
22:03
Speaker 1: people have been taught in public, School. Christopher and this
22:06
Speaker 1: is a pervasive that we are an inherently evil, country
22:09
Speaker 1: that we're all, bad evil. People we were born of
22:11
Speaker 1: original sin of racism and, slavery and we aren't worthy of.
22:15
Speaker 1: Existing now fight that. Challenge try to convince someone who
22:18
Speaker 1: is a profoundly religious person like. Yourself how long would
22:21
Speaker 1: it take me to talk you out of Your christian, Faith?
22:23
Speaker 1: Christopher you'd never give it.
22:25
Speaker 2: Up.
22:25
Speaker 1: Ever, well that's what we're fighting in terms of this.
22:28
Speaker 1: War we're waging against this woke. Leftism they Hate america
22:33
Speaker 1: and you're not going to convince them. Otherwise and that
22:35
Speaker 1: is the most disturbing element among all of. This let's
22:39
Speaker 1: continue With Christopher smithmen right. Now it's seven point thirty.
22:41
Speaker 2: Seven.
22:45
Speaker 1: Seven thirty nine here fifty Five Carosit Talk, Station full
22:48
Speaker 1: Our power With Christopher. Smithmen he is on a roll,
22:52
Speaker 1: today which is typically the, CASE i think even more so, Today.
22:54
Speaker 1: Christopher appreciate you coming on the show, today, man as,
22:57
Speaker 1: Always so what else is bruin in the back of your?
22:59
Speaker 2: Mind, well, listen, BROTHER i heard you talk earlier about
23:04
Speaker 2: income taxes and city council locally raised. Tax, okay just
23:11
Speaker 2: that little, thing, Right, yeah they.
23:12
Speaker 1: Got a little. Problem this is they got again the
23:15
Speaker 1: giant hole in the budget described as the predicting a
23:20
Speaker 1: thirty two million dollar death of deficit this fiscal year
23:23
Speaker 1: of nothing changes.
23:25
Speaker 2: Great remind if you, REWIND i THINK i estimated thirty one,
23:30
Speaker 2: million SO i was off five million or, So so
23:33
Speaker 2: thirty two million dollars and. Growing AND i want the
23:38
Speaker 2: public to understand that THE covid money right that they've
23:42
Speaker 2: been patting the budget with is now. Gone these deficits
23:47
Speaker 2: were there, before and so the reality here is what
23:50
Speaker 2: do this council doesn't know how to manage a. Budget.
23:54
Speaker 2: Now i'm not being facetious WHEN i share this with the.
23:57
Speaker 2: Public our mayor had his car repode. Twice now he
24:04
Speaker 2: cannot manage his own personal budget at. Home that is.
24:10
Speaker 2: Obvious how can you manage a billion dollar? Budget is
24:14
Speaker 2: anybody surprised that we're facing this kind of? Deficit as
24:18
Speaker 2: if they didn't know this a year or two years,
24:21
Speaker 2: ago that this was the projectory of the. Budget the
24:25
Speaker 2: increase is a way to bail them. Out this has
24:29
Speaker 2: called a democratic. Bailout and what drives me nuts is
24:34
Speaker 2: at the same time they'll SAY i care about the poor,
24:36
Speaker 2: PEOPLE i care about the middle. Class, look if you're a,
24:40
Speaker 2: renter which most people in the city Of cincinnati are,
24:42
Speaker 2: renters your rent is going higher because of property taxes and.
24:47
Speaker 2: Fees so if the city is charging If rumkey is
24:51
Speaker 2: charging your landlord a fee to pick up your, TRASH
24:55
Speaker 2: i just paid mine for my. Office it was seven
24:57
Speaker 2: hundred and twenty five or seven hundred and fifty dollars
25:00
Speaker 2: for the. Year that's gone up from like two hundred
25:03
Speaker 2: or three hundred now to seven hundred and twenty five.
25:06
Speaker 2: Dollars all of these four families around the city are
25:10
Speaker 2: getting these fees From. Ronkey the landlord isn't going to eat.
25:14
Speaker 2: It they're going to pass that through to your rent
25:17
Speaker 2: when their property taxes go, higher right to, you, renters
25:21
Speaker 2: right who are voting for these. People guess, what the
25:25
Speaker 2: landlord is not going to eat. That they're going to
25:28
Speaker 2: pass that through to your. Rent renters act as if
25:31
Speaker 2: they're not paying the property taxes and the fees and
25:34
Speaker 2: the income taxes and the sales. Taxes because Our cincinnati
25:38
Speaker 2: public schools continue to fail them on basic. Economics we're
25:43
Speaker 2: focused on, calculus and we need to be focused on
25:46
Speaker 2: two plus two is. Four we need to be teaching
25:49
Speaker 2: our children out here basic. Trades how to be how
25:53
Speaker 2: to fix a how to be AN hvac, person how
25:57
Speaker 2: to be an, electrician how to be a, carpenter be an.
26:00
Speaker 2: Ironworker it's missing in our public education across The United
26:04
Speaker 2: states and also specifically in the city Of. Cincinnati and
26:08
Speaker 2: by the, way those young, People Martin Luther, king if
26:12
Speaker 2: you're gonna give a speech, today give a speech on public,
26:15
Speaker 2: education talk about specifically what's happening in the city Of
26:19
Speaker 2: cincinnati with our, babies who are who are who are
26:22
Speaker 2: living around and attending schools that are? Failing and why
26:26
Speaker 2: when The Vick ramaswami, says, hey, LISTEN i want to
26:30
Speaker 2: make the school system, better why do you why are you?
26:32
Speaker 2: Scared you know the super majority of children that are
26:36
Speaker 2: In cincinnati public schools seventy to seventy five percent of,
26:39
Speaker 2: Them Brian, thomas Are African american right. Period and so
26:44
Speaker 2: if you're gonna do a seat, today do it on
26:46
Speaker 2: public education and hold our school board and our teachers
26:50
Speaker 2: and everybody. Accountable by the. Way we have great teachers
26:53
Speaker 2: in the public school. System they are held back by the,
26:56
Speaker 2: Administration they're held back by the school, Board they're held
27:00
Speaker 2: back by the. System the reality of it is we've
27:02
Speaker 2: got bad, children very small percentage of. Them let's, say
27:05
Speaker 2: if they're thirty kids in a, classroom five of them are.
27:08
Speaker 2: Bad but that teacher can't get rid of those sides
27:11
Speaker 2: kids because we have a public school system that says
27:13
Speaker 2: leave no child. Behind that kid is spit on the,
27:16
Speaker 2: teacher hit the, teacher disrupted the. Class it's, crazy and
27:20
Speaker 2: you can't get rid of the bad kids in the.
27:22
Speaker 2: System talk ABOUT. Mlka this is a, problem, Brother this
27:27
Speaker 2: is where justice has to happen so that Young African
27:30
Speaker 2: americans and white kids who have access to public. Education
27:34
Speaker 2: the last Thing i'll, say And i've shut my, mouth
27:36
Speaker 2: is the best way to get into the middle class
27:39
Speaker 2: still today is a good. Education and we are failing
27:43
Speaker 2: our babies right now On Martin Luther king because the
27:46
Speaker 2: public school systems across The United states continue to fail
27:50
Speaker 2: our babies at the hands of.
27:51
Speaker 1: Democrats well fail them in the sense that they are
27:54
Speaker 1: being left behind by virtue of them not getting an
27:57
Speaker 1: education and yet being pushed forward to the next. Grade
28:00
Speaker 1: who's really being left? Behind isn't that child better served
28:04
Speaker 1: having to take that grade over again so he or
28:06
Speaker 1: she is equipped with the knowledge and skill sets to
28:08
Speaker 1: handle the next level. Grade that's the only way to
28:12
Speaker 1: help those. Children to the extent you push them through
28:14
Speaker 1: just because it's, OH i don't, know it's not fair
28:18
Speaker 1: that they're not as smart enough to pass a test or.
28:21
Speaker 1: Something you're doing them a collective, disservice and ultimately you're
28:23
Speaker 1: doing the entire country of. Disservice we've got a bunch
28:26
Speaker 1: of idiots roaming around out.
28:27
Speaker 2: There third world countries are beating us right now in.
28:31
Speaker 2: Education children are walking for miles in the dark to
28:36
Speaker 2: get an. Education, right they promote and respect their teachers
28:41
Speaker 2: and their. Society they're at the, top not the, bottom
28:44
Speaker 2: right as far as respect it as a. Profession i'm
28:47
Speaker 2: saying to you that our school systems are failing us
28:52
Speaker 2: and we have to address. It On Martin Luther king's,
28:56
Speaker 2: birthday let's use the holiday to speak true to. POWER
29:01
Speaker 2: i don't want to sit around In march Like i'm a.
29:03
Speaker 2: Victim i'm not a. Victim. Right but what's happening is
29:07
Speaker 2: so Many African americans Are. Democrats they refuse to challenge
29:11
Speaker 2: The Democratic party where they are failing, us and they
29:15
Speaker 2: continue to vote for the same people getting the same.
29:18
Speaker 2: Results Brian, Thomas i'm saying that our school system needs
29:22

Speaker 2: our school? System and why are we continuing to allow
29:51
Speaker 2: our schools to fail and not give our parents a.
29:54

Speaker 2: Ohio Meaning Amy atkins shut down the school system to the,
30:06

32:45
Speaker 2: these settlements that are coming out of City hall are an.

Speaker 2: Issue here are some facts THAT i just want to.
33:00

33:28
Speaker 2: to your a jury. Trial they're in the dark rooms
33:32
Speaker 2: with their cigars and they're negotiating this stuff because what

Speaker 2: they really are doing is what we call criminal justice.
33:38
Speaker 2: Reparation they believe that somebody was harmed here and they're
33:42
Speaker 2: giving out our tax dollars, saying, hey we're gonna give
33:46

Speaker 2: it before a jury and let's litigate. It, Right they're Litigating,
34:17
Speaker 2: Fiji they're Litigating, Washington Chief washington And. Fiji why are
34:22
Speaker 2: they they're fighting the police in the fire at the
34:25
Speaker 2: same time they're giving money out to those who are
34:28
Speaker 2: breaking our. LAW i don't get, it BUT i understand
34:31
Speaker 2: that this is a political climate that we're, In Brian.
34:34
Speaker 2: Thomas and if the voters of this great, state of
34:38
Speaker 2: this great, county of this great city don't wake, up,
34:42
Speaker 2: right we're gonna look Like. Detroit we're gonna look Like.
34:46
Speaker 2: Chicago that's where we're. Hitted the, logical common sense everyday
34:51
Speaker 2: person getting up and going to. Work they're Leaving, cincinnati

35:03
Speaker 2: To Claremont. County i'm not even gonna live In Hamilton.
35:06
Speaker 2: County that is what is happening right now because of

35:26
Speaker 2: get our city. Cleaned our city is one of the
35:29
Speaker 2: dirtiest cities ever across the state Of. Ohio and this
35:33

35:37
Speaker 2: they're supposed to, do and they're in somebody else's. Business
35:40
Speaker 2: meaning what happened in another part of the, country whether
35:43
Speaker 2: it Was George floyd or whether it's this other woman
35:46
Speaker 2: who got shot in her head trying to run over
35:49
Speaker 2: an ice, agent it is not the business of this
35:52
Speaker 2: council and this mayor and this council need to do
35:55
Speaker 2: the business. Here but guess what elections have. Consequences and
35:59
Speaker 2: on mlk's, birthday all of this. Matters the content of
36:04
Speaker 2: my character, matters not my race and how HARD i
36:08
