  Speaker 1: to 7, that's how Thursdays line up here on NewsRadio
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: 570 WKBN. So keep that in mind. Before I take
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: a call or two, I remind you of our top
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: secret number, 330-729-9977, 330-729-9977. We'll get you through to us
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: on NewsRadio 570 WKBN. Hey, let me remind you about
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: my friends over there at Stadium GM right in the
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: heart of Salem where you find Mike Hudak and the
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: entire crew at Stadium GM. I talked to you about
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: Stadium GM and it's a labor of love for me
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: because as a customer, and I've been a customer for
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: many years with Stadium GM, it's locally owned and operated.
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: Stadium GM is not part of some great big conglomerate
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: group of dealerships, which... Really, I don't know how to
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: describe that. It's locally owned and operated by Shorty Navarro.
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: It has been and continues to be. And so the
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: stability of the staff is something that you like with
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: Mike Hudak at Stadium GM. Great service departments that they
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: have as well. And every single thing that General Motors
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: makes is at Stadium GM. So if you're looking for Cadillac,
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: if you're looking for Buick, if you're looking for GMC,
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: if you're looking for Silverado, it's all right there at
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: Stadium GM. Whether you're leasing or buying, and by the way,
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: if you're interested in a used car, truck, or SUV,
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: check out the website, stadiumgm.com, and you'll see all of
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: their used products, the Carfax reports, competitive pricing there. And
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: so if you're leasing or buying, stop on by the
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: dealership and see all that they have to offer. We
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: just bought in 2026. My wife just bought an Equinox and,
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: of course, did the same thing that we did when
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: we bought our Chevy Cruzes. Went to Stadium GM. We
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: were treated great. I think you'll be treated terrific as well.
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: So I invite you to visit a beautiful drive to Salem,
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: which is a lovely community, incidentally, and visit the folks
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: at Stadium GM. All right, so good afternoon.
• 2:28
  Speaker 2: Hello.
• 2:28
  Speaker 3: Good afternoon.
• 2:30
  Speaker 4: How are you?
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: Folks, I'm glad you asked me that. I'm going to
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: tell you, okay?
• 2:38
  Speaker 4: I hope you do.
• 2:40
  Speaker 5: I'm sitting down.
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: Are you willing to listen?
• 2:42
  Speaker 3: Of course I am. All ears.
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: All right, all right. That's what matters. I must say
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: that I should read you some of these e-mails. Over
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: the last couple of shows that we've talked, I think
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: you get me. I think J.J., the liberal, understands. And
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: I said this, and I don't have enough time to
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: get into it all today, so I might have to
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: talk about it more tomorrow. I'm really disappointed in a
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: lot of people. And I think there are people that
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: disappoint me. But as I've said to you, and as
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: I would say again, and I say this, J.J. will
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: be the ear to listen to me. I'm not here
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: as a cheerleader for Republicans or Democrats. I'm not here
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: to say whatever this, let me back up and say,
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: I just don't support that. I am not a cheerleader
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: and I refuse to be that. And I didn't admire
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: that when I would see it by the Democrats no
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: more than I do the Republicans. And it doesn't mean
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: that you can't be critical of what's going on and
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: still support the president overall. In most cases, as I've
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: said to you guys in the past, I have been
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: disappointed by about all the presidents, maybe with the exception
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: of Reagan. Republicans and Democrats have been a disappointment to me.
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: They've been globalists, and I've found them very disappointing. I
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: never thought that they had this country's best interest at
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: heart or certainly not my best interest at heart. And
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: I've watched this over the years. So I was never, oh,
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: it's if the Republicans are everything's OK, the Democrats are.
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: As I said to you numerous times, these parties have
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: changed over the years. The Democrat Party used to be
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: the more working person party, became now the party of
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: the far left progressives and the oddballs. The Republican Party
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: used to be the party of the snobs and the
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: elitist business community. And it shifted to be more the
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: party of the America First, Trump changed the party, and
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: the working person. So the Republican Party changed over the
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: years its image, and the Democrat Party changed theirs. So
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: that's why you see many people that used to be
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: Democrats who are now Republicans. And that's why you see
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: the shift that's going on out there as far as
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: where people happen to be with their political alignments. The
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: parties have changed. So when we would have the primary
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: and people would be arguing, oh, this person hasn't been
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: a Republican that long. Well, that's because the party changed
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: and they changed as a party changed. So it comes
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: down to this, and it all stems from this Tom
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: Massey situation yesterday. I believe Tom Massey, once again, is
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: a great American. I sincerely believe that you have a
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: right to disagree with the president. I do not agree
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: with this situation in Iran. I mean, I think Trump
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: has gotten into a mess. It's gone on longer than
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: he anticipated it was going on. would go on. And
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: I think they're trying to look at a way of
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: how to get out of this and save face. And
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: it was, and it's caused a lot of major headaches
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: in this country with affordability and gasoline prices, major headaches
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: that have a tendency potentially to get worse. I want
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: to talk out, hang on. I want to talk more
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: about that with JJ and take some of your calls
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: and And I've probably got to talk a lot more
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: about it tomorrow since we have a short segment. Back
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: in a minute. I heart the new KBN. A lot
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: of this I'm going to have to get into tomorrow
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: just because it's such a short segment.
• 6:24
  Speaker 3: You're running on some short time. In fact, my wife
• 6:26
  Speaker 3: is going to be pulling up with our son, and
• 6:28
  Speaker 3: she's got to run to work, so I'm going to
• 6:29
  Speaker 3: get him inside. But I just wanted to let you
• 6:31
  Speaker 3: know that, and I say it every day, but I
• 6:35
  Speaker 3: think that, yes, I do get you. And I'm proud
• 6:39
  Speaker 3: of you. And it's coming from me, whether it means
• 6:41
  Speaker 3: anything or not. You stand for something. You stand for
• 6:45
  Speaker 3: what you believe, whether it's something I disagree with or
• 6:48
  Speaker 3: agree with. But that's what makes you. That's why I
• 6:51
  Speaker 3: like you. So that's why I respect you, believe it
• 6:54
  Speaker 3: or not. It's not because you agree with me. It's
• 6:56
  Speaker 3: because you disagree with me at times. So I think
• 6:58
  Speaker 3: you're pulling up right now.
• 6:59
  Speaker 6: But listen, be blessed. I'll be listening to you.
• 7:01
  Speaker 3: And I'll give you a call tomorrow or the next day, buddy.
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: Thank you, J.J., the liberal. There is definitely, when they
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: say a cult, I mean, I think that there are
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: some people that think that you should never disagree with
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: Trump or anything about Trump at all. And no matter
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: what he says that the people should vote in lockstep
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: with or agree with everything he's doing. And I don't
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: agree with that. I sincerely do not agree with that.
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: And I've said to you numerous times, and I'll get
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: into more of this tomorrow when we have time on
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: this situation. I look at this whole Massey thing, and
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: really no one knows anything about the guy that defeated Massey.
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: He's an enigma. He's a Trojan horse. He wouldn't debate Massey.
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: I mean, it's very odd that the guy that wants
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: to take on Massey refuses to debate him. Or say
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: where he stands on anything. On anything at all. And
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: if it was just, oh, this is just how it's
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: going to go, then there's a reason why these lobby
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: groups spent $ 10 million plus to get rid of a guy.
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: If it wasn't just some popular groundswell to get this
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: guy out of there, no, there's a lot of money
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: that was spent to get him out of there. Because
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: of special interest to try to get the guy out
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: of there. It's... For a guy we know absolutely nothing about,
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: other than, I guess, whatever Trump says he'll vote for,
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: without questioning anything. I really didn't approve of that when
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: it comes to the Democrats, and I think you've got
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: to give some degree of thought. It's okay to disagree
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: with the President's. I found it odd when so many
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: people agreed with everything Biden did. I didn't find that
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: a great party. I thought it was just weird that
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: these people stopped thinking. That they couldn't acknowledge this guy
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: wasn't running the country. That they couldn't acknowledge the lawfare
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: and the things that were going on, which were just...
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: totally and completely wrong, but they didn't stray from it
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: out of fear of Nancy Pelosi, out of fear of
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: being challenged in a primary or something like that. Somewhere
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: along the line, they lost their courage and they lost
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: their soul and they lost their independence. And that's why
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: I say when we know the reasons why they were
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: opposed to Massey. And if you take a look at
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: just the, totally being opposed to foreign aid, which I
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: am as well. And I say to all of you,
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: Medicare is in deep trouble financially. Social Security is in
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: deep trouble. The country's $ 40 trillion in debt. It isn't
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: going to go on like this forever. before all of
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: this can be affected by it in the blink of
• 10:03
  Speaker 1: an eye. So shouldn't we take care of America first
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: and stop some of this nonsense? Back with your call. 570-WKVD.
• 10:11
  Speaker 6: WKVN.
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: 434 in the afternoon. We're at 66 degrees on a Thursday,
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: May 21st, and you're on the air.
• 10:16
  Speaker 6: All right, you're listening and I'm talking. Okay? Yes, sir.
• 10:22
  Speaker 6: 45 minutes.
• 10:23
  Speaker 7: Listen, all I'm saying is this thing with the lame
• 10:29
  Speaker 7: Congress that we have that says we're going on vacation,
• 10:33
  Speaker 7: Trump can adjourn Congress, by the way, under the Constitution.
• 10:37
  Speaker 6: I read last night. He can adjourn Congress just like
• 10:41
  Speaker 6: Obama did and get all his people.
• 10:44
  Speaker 4: Passed, you know, his.
• 10:47
  Speaker 6: You know, the ones that he recommended. And he can
• 10:50
  Speaker 6: get some bills, Pat. He can do all that. Because
• 10:54
  Speaker 6: Congress took a vacation.
• 10:55
  Speaker 4: They're not there.
• 10:57
  Speaker 6: So he can adjourn it and do his business. That's
• 10:59
  Speaker 6: what I would do.
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: Well, if that's true and accurate, then why doesn't he
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: do it? You're talking about he can make his executive
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: orders in the laws, according to you.
• 11:09
  Speaker 6: Yeah. No, he can codify his executive orders.
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: Yeah, well, why doesn't he do it then?
• 11:14
  Speaker 6: Well, then, we'll see. We'll see this weekend.
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: We'll see. We'll see what happens.
• 11:21
  Speaker 6: All right. Also, I believe he's going to hit Iran
• 11:25
  Speaker 6: because the Supreme Leader said we're not giving up any. Right.
• 11:29
  Speaker 5: Did you hear that? What do you say?
• 11:31
  Speaker 4: Right.
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: So, I mean, so what's the next step? I mean, okay.
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: So how was, so did we do a lot of
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: that already? I mean, I mean, so we did the
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: bunker buster. We did all the bombing, the bombing in
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: the past. So now we'll go do some more bombing. Right. Okay.
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: What do you do if that doesn't work? Well, I mean,
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: I don't understand. We've done all of this stuff.
• 11:55
  Speaker 6: No, no, no. There's still 25 percent, 35 percent left.
• 11:58
  Speaker 6: And then also Carg Island.
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: So you're saying if we bomb them some more, this
• 12:04
  Speaker 1: should reach an end?
• 12:06
  Speaker 6: Oh, sure, because a lot of the military, you know,
• 12:10
  Speaker 6: what do you call those the Army has? They can
• 12:14
  Speaker 6: be wiped out. And then, of course, Carg Island, now
• 12:16
  Speaker 6: we've got control of the oil. You know what they're doing, Ron?
• 12:19
  Speaker 6: As of two days ago, they've been dumping the oil
• 12:21
  Speaker 6: in the ocean. You know, we're the environmental people here.
• 12:26
  Speaker 6: You know what I mean?
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: I know exactly what you mean.
• 12:29
  Speaker 6: Okay, now wait a minute. I don't want you to
• 12:31
  Speaker 6: worry too much of that because I did my research
• 12:33
  Speaker 6: when I was in Florida. Remember when they had the
• 12:36
  Speaker 6: BP spill and everybody was freaking out like, oh, it's
• 12:40
  Speaker 6: going to poison all the groundwater underneath Florida? Remember all that?
• 12:43
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 12:45
  Speaker 6: Well, I did my research, and there's actually a bacteria
• 12:48
  Speaker 6: in the ocean that eats oil. So it cleaned it
• 12:52
  Speaker 6: up in three months.
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: All right. Well, we'll stay tuned. We'll see what happens.
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: Baba Ganoush, thank you. You're on the air.
• 12:59
  Speaker 4: Ronald.
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: Ted the Conservative.
• 13:02
  Speaker 4: I'm out here walking the dog, listening to the world-famous
• 13:06
  Speaker 4: Ronald Webb show.
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: With his bung leg.
• 13:08
  Speaker 4: Yeah. Yeah, but it's getting better. I'll tell you what,
• 13:11
  Speaker 4: it looks really good today.
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: Really?
• 13:13
  Speaker 6: Once a week.
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: Do you limp or do you have to?
• 13:16
  Speaker 8: No, I can walk.
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: Okay.
• 13:18
  Speaker 4: I can walk good for an old guy.
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: All right, well, that's good. So it's healing. That's what
• 13:24
  Speaker 1: matters most.
• 13:25
  Speaker 4: Yeah, it's healing. But listen, I've got to give you
• 13:28
  Speaker 4: an idea. Because I'm walking the dog, like I said,
• 13:31
  Speaker 4: no plans on calling Ron today. I've got nothing to say.
• 13:34
  Speaker 4: But you've confirmed something I've been saying for 12 years.
• 13:39
  Speaker 4: I had to call in. There is a cult. You're
• 13:42
  Speaker 4: spot on. Everything you said to start the program is
• 13:45
  Speaker 4: spot on. And, you know, I was attacked. If you
• 13:49
  Speaker 4: think over the years, how much I've been attacked.
• 13:51
  Speaker 6: What do you think?
• 13:53
  Speaker 4: Oh, my goodness gracious. The cult is real. They're angry.
• 13:57
  Speaker 4: And you can't say anything against the king or else
• 14:00
  Speaker 4: they will come after you. They've done it to me. Correct. Correct.
• 14:30
  Speaker 6: I mean, it's so childish.
• 14:32
  Speaker 4: I'm going to be very honest. I can't wait.
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: I mean, what troubles me is it's almost like a
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: circular firing squad. Suddenly, the cult members are attacking people
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: that helped get Trump elected. I mean, I mean, the
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: Trump had on a stage with him. I don't care
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: if it's Marjorie Taylor Greene or Tucker Carlson or any
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: of these people, Massey, you name it, because they disagree
• 14:59
  Speaker 1: with them. Now they're stupid. They're low IQ. He attacks him,
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: but they were there to help him get elected. I mean, it.
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: I find that just crazy.
• 15:08
  Speaker 4: It's insanity. It just, and I'm not saying I agree
• 15:11
  Speaker 4: with everything. He says, or anyone, right. But everyone, everyone's
• 15:17
  Speaker 4: allowed to have their own opinion. They're grown adults. And
• 15:20
  Speaker 4: he's just such a petty guy. And such a narcissistic
• 15:24
  Speaker 4: person that you, you know, it would be horrible to
• 15:27
  Speaker 4: be around him 24 seven, because you've got to basically
• 15:30
  Speaker 4: worship him. I think, you know, It's unbelievable. It's unbelievable.
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: And I think Netanyahu knows how to play the guy. Oh,
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: he's the best president Israel's ever had. I mean, they
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: are playing to his ego. Watch when they're around.
• 15:44
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I think a lot of leaders play to his ego.
• 15:46
  Speaker 4: A lot of statesmen play to his ego. They know
• 15:49
  Speaker 4: what to say to get what they want. Now, again,
• 15:51
  Speaker 4: it doesn't mean I don't like the guy. It doesn't
• 15:53
  Speaker 4: mean I wouldn't vote for him again.
• 15:55
  Speaker 1: Exactly.
• 15:55
  Speaker 4: You've got to call it like it is, or else
• 15:58
  Speaker 4: you're part of the culprit.
• 16:00
  Speaker 1: I mean, I sit back and I say this to
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: myself and I'd say this to you. Would I be
• 16:05
  Speaker 1: OK with if Biden was president and he had his
• 16:11
  Speaker 1: personal lawyer take over the Department of Justice and his
• 16:14
  Speaker 1: personal lawyer gave him total and complete immunity from any IRS, him,
• 16:20
  Speaker 1: his family and his businesses, total immunity from any type
• 16:24
  Speaker 1: of IRS audit ever? Nope, we wouldn't support that. I mean,
• 16:31
  Speaker 1: all of these people would be saying, well, look at that.
• 16:33
  Speaker 1: Look at what Biden did for his family. Well, that's
• 16:35
  Speaker 1: what happened when Trump put his personal lawyer in charge
• 16:39
  Speaker 1: of the DOJ. His personal lawyer came up with this, what,
• 16:43
  Speaker 1: $ 1. 8 billion for this, if you've been affected by the government.
• 16:49
  Speaker 1: But the interesting part is, okay, the IRS is totally
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: barred from looking at anything with Trump, his family, his businesses,
• 16:56
  Speaker 1: tax returns. Totally barred from it. Now, would everyone be
• 17:00
  Speaker 1: okay if Biden did that for his family? I would
• 17:02
  Speaker 1: be okay with that if any politician did that.
• 17:07
  Speaker 4: And I think it speaks to the bigger issue of,
• 17:09
  Speaker 4: you know, that was, I think it was premeditated. That
• 17:13
  Speaker 4: was the end goal. That was the objective. Begin this
• 17:16
  Speaker 4: process and end it the way it is. It's just unfortunate.
• 17:20
  Speaker 4: He is who he is. I used to beat my
• 17:25
  Speaker 4: head against the wall up until about six months ago
• 17:27
  Speaker 4: when I came to the conclusion that I'm just not
• 17:29
  Speaker 4: going to react to the stupid things he does, stupid
• 17:32
  Speaker 4: things he says. I'm going to support him from an
• 17:36
  Speaker 4: economic and legislative standpoint because I know when it comes
• 17:40
  Speaker 4: to that stuff, he does mean well. And he is
• 17:43
  Speaker 4: trying to fix the country, but he gets distracted. He's
• 17:45
  Speaker 4: probably got attention deficit disorder, too. But, you know, hey,
• 17:50
  Speaker 4: I support him.
• 17:51
  Speaker 6: I hope he does well.
• 17:52
  Speaker 4: I hope he can get it out of his head.
• 17:55
  Speaker 1: I would be the first one to say the same thing.
• 17:57
  Speaker 1: It's awful windy out there.
• 17:58
  Speaker 5: I'm sorry.
• 17:59
  Speaker 1: Let me let you go because it's windy.
• 18:01
  Speaker 4: Okay, buddy.
• 18:01
  Speaker 6: All right.
• 18:02
  Speaker 1: Thank you. Listen, I hope the whole Iran deal works out.
• 18:09
  Speaker 5: But..
• 18:13
  Speaker 1: I sit back. They kept telling me a deal's imminent,
• 18:15
  Speaker 1: a deal's imminent. How many weeks ago? Well, was that
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: true or false? I thought when we dropped the bunker buster,
• 18:24
  Speaker 1: that took care of everything. Then all of a sudden,
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: that wasn't good enough. Now we dropped all these other bombs. Oh,
• 18:32
  Speaker 1: now we got them right where we need them. You know,
• 18:37
  Speaker 1: we got them all cut off at the blockade and everything. Well...
• 18:42
  Speaker 1: They still haven't agreed to any of this. And so
• 18:50
  Speaker 1: what's the answer now? Well, let's just bomb them some more.
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: All right, what makes you think that's going to work
• 18:56
  Speaker 1: this time? So I just sit back and look at this.
• 19:03
  Speaker 1: So you say to yourself, okay, so let's go do
• 19:06
  Speaker 1: that some more. Why do you think that'll be successful?
• 19:15
  Speaker 1: As I say, do you really understand their culture? Or
• 19:22
  Speaker 1: they just dug in and said, okay, well, we're not
• 19:25
  Speaker 1: going to do that. We'll wait this out. And so
• 19:32
  Speaker 1: many of these people just, I mean, there's a lot here.
• 19:36
  Speaker 1: I hope it works out. I hope it's successful. Hope
• 19:39
  Speaker 1: it brings them to their knees and all that kind
• 19:41
  Speaker 1: of jazz. But it can also go the other way too.
• 19:50
  Speaker 1: And it can go the way to where, as I
• 19:55
  Speaker 1: said to you, I believe in America first. I believe
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: this country needs its problems fixed first. And all of
• 20:04
  Speaker 1: you listening, we're not worried about a nuclear weapon in Iran.
• 20:07
  Speaker 1: It's staying up at night till they can try to,
• 20:10
  Speaker 1: the neocons beat that drum, trying to act and tell
• 20:12
  Speaker 1: you that this was the most important issue on the planet.
• 20:24
  Speaker 1: So I'm not for destroying the American economy for any
• 20:32
  Speaker 1: special interests that thinks we should be doing this kind
• 20:35
  Speaker 1: of stuff. I mean, just think of where this economy
• 20:42
  Speaker 1: would have been if he would have stayed the course.
• 20:44
  Speaker 1: Would have done why people elected him. Get these people
• 20:46
  Speaker 1: out of the country that are here illegally, which has
• 20:49
  Speaker 1: certainly had the brakes tapped on that. Get energy prices down,
• 20:54
  Speaker 1: get inflation down. That's why he was elected. He wasn't
• 21:03
  Speaker 1: elected for regime change in Iran, nuclear weapons in Iran,
• 21:09
  Speaker 1: and the status quo on the Epstein files. You have
• 21:16
  Speaker 1: to ask yourself, why did Trump do a 180 on
• 21:18
  Speaker 1: those two very vital issues? Why did he do a
• 21:22
  Speaker 1: 180 on Epstein? Why did he do a 180 on
• 21:25
  Speaker 1: the situation in Iran? Why did he do something like that?
• 21:42
  Speaker 1: Sometimes you got to say that. Doesn't mean you hate
• 21:44
  Speaker 1: the guy. Doesn't mean you'd go vote for Kamala Harris.
• 21:50
  Speaker 1: But sometimes you got to say to yourself, if Biden
• 21:53
  Speaker 1: was doing this, would you approve? Would you approve? Or
• 21:56
  Speaker 1: if whatever, some Democrat was doing it, pick whoever you want.
• 21:59
  Speaker 1: The opposition party would say, oh, that's okay. If you're
• 22:05
  Speaker 1: upset because the Biden family was making a ton of
• 22:09
  Speaker 1: money because of Joe Biden, should he be upset if
• 22:11
  Speaker 1: the Trump family is making a ton of money because
• 22:13
  Speaker 1: of Donald Trump? As far as the government's connections are concerned?
• 22:20
  Speaker 1: Or is it a double standard? Something to think about.
• 22:29
  Speaker 1: And a lot of people don't want to think about that.
• 22:31
  Speaker 1: Let's just keep the blinders on. You're on the air.
• 22:35
  Speaker 5: Well, the Biden family didn't have a single business to
• 22:42
  Speaker 5: make money off of, and they traded... Oh, about 10,
• 22:45
  Speaker 5: 12 different LLCs that weren't non-existent.
• 22:50
  Speaker 1: I'm not talking about their hotel business and their naming business.
• 22:53
  Speaker 1: Just stay tuned.
• 22:54
  Speaker 5: No, it doesn't matter what business you're talking about. They're
• 22:59
  Speaker 5: not selling the country out like Biden did. Biden allowed
• 23:03
  Speaker 5: those balloons, weather balloons, to fly up over our country
• 23:08
  Speaker 5: through sensitive areas from China. That's not what's going on here.
• 23:13
  Speaker 5: You have a drone industry that there's about 10 or
• 23:17
  Speaker 5: 12 different drone makers out there in that market, including
• 23:21
  Speaker 5: the Trump family. That's where they're making money.
• 23:25
  Speaker 1: At, and they haven't won yet. There's a hell of
• 23:27
  Speaker 1: a lot of people making money short in the market
• 23:30
  Speaker 1: and playing the markets at a level we've never seen,
• 23:33
  Speaker 1: and they haven't been identified. which I find very interesting
• 23:37
  Speaker 1: at this point in time because somebody's got insider information
• 23:41
  Speaker 1: that's not making a little bit of money, that's making
• 23:43
  Speaker 1: a ton of money.
• 23:45
  Speaker 3: True.
• 23:46
  Speaker 5: And we'll be seeing, and so we'll look at that.
• 23:51
  Speaker 1: You'll never find out. You will never, when you say
• 23:54
  Speaker 1: you'll look at it, you will never know. You'll never
• 23:56
  Speaker 1: find out. Because just like you never know the person
• 23:59
  Speaker 1: that shorted the airlines before September 11th happened, the day
• 24:03
  Speaker 1: before it happened. Who had that insider information? Did you
• 24:06
  Speaker 1: ever find that out? It was noted.
• 24:08
  Speaker 5: Not exactly.
• 24:09
  Speaker 1: Yeah, so you never found out, was it another country?
• 24:12
  Speaker 1: Was it an individual? Somebody made a lot of money
• 24:15
  Speaker 1: on that.
• 24:16
  Speaker 5: Yeah, whoever that owner was.
• 24:19
  Speaker 1: Well, somebody obviously had some type of insider information that
• 24:22
  Speaker 1: something was going to happen. Well, you're seeing the same
• 24:24
  Speaker 1: thing here.
• 24:26
  Speaker 5: Well, I'm just the guy that owned the Twin Towers.
• 24:30
  Speaker 5: took all the gold and jewelry out of it a
• 24:34
  Speaker 5: week before.
• 24:35
  Speaker 1: I mean, so did somebody know that this was going
• 24:38
  Speaker 1: to happen ahead of time?
• 24:43
  Speaker 5: You failed to do one thing, and that is understand
• 24:48
  Speaker 5: that in the Republican Party, there still is a civil war.
• 24:52
  Speaker 5: The rhinos have to go.
• 24:56
  Speaker 1: No, so let me get this straight. So if you're
• 24:59
  Speaker 1: a Republican, you should agree with anything the president says
• 25:04
  Speaker 1: and vote for it.
• 25:05
  Speaker 5: If you'll let me talk, I'll squash that BS. That's
• 25:09
  Speaker 5: not what I said, and that's not where I'm going.
• 25:12
  Speaker 6: I'm trying to.
• 25:12
  Speaker 5: Get you to an area where you can think about
• 25:15
  Speaker 5: something that's a little bit clearer than that, because this
• 25:18
  Speaker 5: man is not stupid.
• 25:21
  Speaker 6: What is going on?
• 25:22
  Speaker 5: First of all, you have 91 million people in the
• 25:25
  Speaker 5: country of Iran that he does not want to blow
• 25:28
  Speaker 5: up and kill. That's why he's taking his time on this,
• 25:32
  Speaker 5: because pretty much he knows what he's going to do
• 25:35
  Speaker 5: if he has to.
• 25:36
  Speaker 1: But what is that?
• 25:38
  Speaker 4: Oh, God.
• 25:39
  Speaker 1: No, what is that? I mean, if he knows what he's,
• 25:42
  Speaker 1: what have we done? I mean, I'm going to speculate
• 25:46
  Speaker 1: we're going to bomb him some more. What do you
• 25:48
  Speaker 1: think he's going to do?
• 25:49
  Speaker 5: He might have to bomb him some more, but you're
• 25:51
  Speaker 5: trying to make it so 91 million people, the most
• 25:55
  Speaker 5: of them survive. You're not wanting to just kill 91
• 25:59
  Speaker 5: million people.
• 26:00
  Speaker 1: Well, I don't think you can.
• 26:02
  Speaker 5: He can if he wants to. Then we can destroy
• 26:05
  Speaker 5: half the world. What are you talking about?
• 26:07
  Speaker 1: Well, he's not going to launch a nuclear bomb.
• 26:10
  Speaker 9: Well, what I'm just saying is.
• 26:12
  Speaker 1: No, I'm saying to you, listen, you want to lecture me?
• 26:14
  Speaker 1: I'm asking you. Okay, he's not going to do that.
• 26:18
  Speaker 1: So what do you think he's going to do? He's
• 26:21
  Speaker 1: going to bomb him some more. If he bombs him
• 26:23
  Speaker 1: some more, then are they going to agree and are
• 26:25
  Speaker 1: we going to move on?
• 26:27
  Speaker 5: They don't have to do something because they're going to
• 26:29
  Speaker 5: be their infrastructure totally destroyed if they don't. And that's
• 26:35
  Speaker 5: the bottom line. And you hurt those 91 million. So
• 26:38
  Speaker 5: he's looking for the way out to get past that.
• 26:44
  Speaker 1: Obviously, there hasn't been a way out at this point
• 26:47
  Speaker 1: in time, has there?
• 26:49
  Speaker 5: Yeah, there's a way out, but you can't do it yet.
• 26:52
  Speaker 5: You have to exhaust all your other methods before you
• 26:56
  Speaker 5: allow 91 million.
• 26:57
  Speaker 1: People to die. So basically, if this doesn't work out,
• 27:03
  Speaker 1: what do you think? You have to drop a nuclear
• 27:05
  Speaker 1: bomb on them?
• 27:06
  Speaker 5: Not necessarily, but we got enough other ordinances to take
• 27:10
  Speaker 5: out 91 million people.
• 27:12
  Speaker 1: Okay, so you say... It's not... I want to make
• 27:14
  Speaker 1: sure I get it straight. So you say, well, then
• 27:17
  Speaker 1: we kill 91 million people.
• 27:19
  Speaker 5: I'm saying you start to do whatever you have to
• 27:22
  Speaker 5: do before they throw in the towel like Japan had
• 27:26
  Speaker 5: to finally do. Even though that was nuclear, we don't
• 27:31
  Speaker 5: have to do that. But I'm trying to build... I'm
• 27:36
  Speaker 5: at your mercy, sir. But there's more to think about.
• 27:41
  Speaker 1: Well, would you support that? Would you support killing 91
• 27:45
  Speaker 1: million people?
• 27:46
  Speaker 5: No, but I would support knocking out a lot of
• 27:50
  Speaker 5: that infrastructure in that country so that they can't. They
• 27:54
  Speaker 5: can't get it together to go down and get those
• 27:56
  Speaker 5: drones and go down and get that yellow cake.
• 28:00
  Speaker 1: Well, why hasn't that happened with all the bombing that's happened?
• 28:04
  Speaker 1: Stand by. Stand by. Stand by. I'll get back to
• 28:07
  Speaker 1: him in a minute. Hang on. Youngstown's News, Weather, and
• 28:11
  Speaker 1: Talk Station, 570 WKBN. With my invitation for you to
• 28:16
  Speaker 1: visit Stadium GM in the heart of Salem, a dealership
• 28:19
  Speaker 1: that's locally owned and operated. It's not part of some
• 28:22
  Speaker 1: big conglomerate's or any of that type of nonsense. Shorty
• 28:26
  Speaker 1: Navarro has owned it and continues to own it, locally
• 28:29
  Speaker 1: owned and operated, with a dealership that wants your business
• 28:33
  Speaker 1: and wants your family's business, generation after generation. And that's
• 28:37
  Speaker 1: why they've done so well over the years. Treats you
• 28:39
  Speaker 1: right in the service departments, treats you right in the
• 28:42
  Speaker 1: sales department, whether it's new or used. And everything that
• 28:45
  Speaker 1: General Motors sells is under one roof at Stadium GM.
• 28:48
  Speaker 1: You don't have to go to dealership to dealership. You're
• 28:50
  Speaker 1: looking for a Cadillac? How about a Buick? How about
• 28:54
  Speaker 1: a GMC? How about a Chevrolet? It's all right there
• 28:56
  Speaker 1: for you, whether you're leasing or buying at Stadium GM
• 29:00
  Speaker 1: with people that treat you right. A dealership that you'll
• 29:03
  Speaker 1: look forward to going to, not regret going to. That's
• 29:06
  Speaker 1: what you find at Stadium GM. I can tell you
• 29:08
  Speaker 1: that as a customer, so I encourage you, if you're
• 29:10
  Speaker 1: in the markets for a used car, truck, or SUV,
• 29:13
  Speaker 1: or a new car, truck, SUV, or leasing, make one
• 29:17
  Speaker 1: of your stops the one that we make in our house,
• 29:20
  Speaker 1: in our family. Stadium GM in the hearts of Salem. So,
• 29:24
  Speaker 1: I mean, we've done a lot. We dropped the bunker buster.
• 29:27
  Speaker 1: I thought that solved everything, didn't you?
• 29:30
  Speaker 5: No, I know it couldn't solve everything. Well, they told
• 29:33
  Speaker 5: us it did.
• 29:34
  Speaker 1: Everything's buried down in it. It went right down the hole.
• 29:38
  Speaker 1: Everything's buried down there. Mission accomplished.
• 29:41
  Speaker 5: And they can dig it back out slowly and surely
• 29:45
  Speaker 5: if they wanted to, if there's nobody over that country.
• 29:48
  Speaker 1: But they didn't dig it out.
• 29:51
  Speaker 5: They haven't dug it out yet because they haven't had
• 29:54
  Speaker 5: a chance to. But if you mess around with the
• 29:58
  Speaker 5: situation and don't stay eagle-eyed on top of them, they
• 30:03
  Speaker 5: will do you now.
• 30:03
  Speaker 1: Well, don't you think we would know it if they
• 30:05
  Speaker 1: do with our satellites?
• 30:07
  Speaker 5: Yes, I think we absolutely would know. But the thing is,
• 30:12
  Speaker 5: how much does it cost you to reposition after you
• 30:17
  Speaker 5: turn around and go home? It's not that easy. You're
• 30:22
  Speaker 5: over there now. You have to solve this thing one
• 30:26
  Speaker 5: way or another within the next two to three months.
• 30:30
  Speaker 5: You guys are crying about two months now, three months now.
• 30:35
  Speaker 5: We've been at this for three months.
• 30:38
  Speaker 1: That is no time.
• 30:40
  Speaker 5: It's not going to go anywhere.
• 30:41
  Speaker 1: Are you going to tell me six months from now? Well,
• 30:44
  Speaker 1: it's only been six months.
• 30:46
  Speaker 5: I'll join the crack wire, okay? If it takes three
• 30:52
  Speaker 5: more months. It's not going to take three more months.
• 30:55
  Speaker 1: Why do you say that?
• 30:57
  Speaker 5: Because that will destroy some things here. It hasn't done
• 31:01
  Speaker 5: it yet, but it will.
• 31:03
  Speaker 1: Well, don't you think those things are teetering here now?
• 31:06
  Speaker 5: I think you're being threatened now, yes. But the thing is,
• 31:11
  Speaker 5: he still has to stop from killing 91 million people.
• 31:16
  Speaker 1: All right.
• 31:17
  Speaker 5: And I've got to listen to one more thing.
• 31:19
  Speaker 1: I mean, that's just craziness. That's craziness talking.
• 31:22
  Speaker 6: No, it's not craziness.
• 31:23
  Speaker 5: And you'll see my words come to your face like
• 31:26
  Speaker 5: it did in several other cases we've talked about.
• 31:30
  Speaker 1: I don't think you'll ever see him kill 91 million people.
• 31:35
  Speaker 5: I didn't say he would. That's what I'm telling you
• 31:37
  Speaker 5: he's waiting on.
• 31:37
  Speaker 1: Well, what is he waiting on? What does that mean
• 31:39
  Speaker 1: he's waiting on?
• 31:40
  Speaker 5: I want you to hear this.
• 31:42
  Speaker 1: I mean, I'm confused.
• 31:43
  Speaker 5: Tucker Carlson gets his money now from Qatar. He does
• 31:46
  Speaker 5: not get it from the United States.
• 31:48
  Speaker 1: I'm not here to attack Tucker Carlson with, oh, he's
• 31:51
  Speaker 1: getting it here or there. All of a sudden, because
• 31:54
  Speaker 1: Tucker Carlson disagrees. Tucker Carlson was on a stage helping
• 31:57
  Speaker 1: Trump get elected.
• 31:59
  Speaker 5: And he changed after he changed his money.
• 32:02
  Speaker 1: Oh, I see. So you think Tucker Carlson's on the
• 32:06
  Speaker 1: payroll of somebody, and that's why he's saying what he's saying?
• 32:08
  Speaker 1: Then I don't think you know Tucker Carlson. I think
• 32:11
  Speaker 1: that's utter, complete bullcrap. I think Tucker Carlson has a
• 32:17
  Speaker 1: difference in opinion with him.
• 32:18
  Speaker 5: Watch my words come to your face.
• 32:21
  Speaker 1: All right, I'll watch him see you. You're on, not you,
• 32:24
  Speaker 1: you're on the air. Hello.
• 32:26
  Speaker 2: Yeah, hi, Ron.
• 32:27
  Speaker 9: Hey, listen, I just want to update you. The claim
• 32:31
