Transcript
- 0:05Speaker 1: 505-55KRC, the talk station. And at Joe Strucker's vacation.
- 0:17Speaker 2: And that's the way.
- 0:30Speaker 1: It is the way the news goes. And yes, I
- 0:31Speaker 1: am so happy. Pulling in the parking lot today and
- 0:33Speaker 1: there's Joe Strecker's car exactly where I wanted it to be.
- 0:36Speaker 1: You know, it's a sinking feeling I get. Brian Thomas,
- 0:38Speaker 1: host of the 55 KRC Morning Show. When Joe's on vacation,
- 0:41Speaker 1: it just doesn't feel quite as right. I don't feel
- 0:43Speaker 1: like things are always going to go swimmingly. And occasionally
- 0:46Speaker 1: during the past week, and not to cast aspersions on
- 0:48Speaker 1: Danny or Russ, things kind of went sideways, which never
- 0:52Speaker 1: happens when Joe's around. He always gets ahead of those things. Joe,
- 0:55Speaker 1: I hope you had a wonderful time. It's great having
- 0:57Speaker 1: you back. I know you'd rather not be back, but
- 0:59Speaker 1: I'm happy anyway. And what is coming up? It's a rundown.
- 1:02Speaker 1: It's a good one because Joe's behind the rundown. Oh, parenthetically,
- 1:08Speaker 1: you know, Joe Strecker does podcasts. I give Joe props
- 1:11Speaker 1: for the amazing podcasts he does. People hire him all
- 1:14Speaker 1: the time to do that, and I am putting a
- 1:17Speaker 1: shout-out for anybody out there that wants to do a podcast.
- 1:19Speaker 1: You got a business you want to talk about or
- 1:21Speaker 1: subject matter podcast, anything under the sun, Joe Strecker's podcasts
- 1:25Speaker 1: are phenomenal. He does great work editing podcasts. And he
- 1:30Speaker 1: could sure, you know, use the additional clients. So there's
- 1:33Speaker 1: free advertising for Joe Strecker, and I'm happy to do
- 1:35Speaker 1: it because I know you're going to get great value
- 1:37Speaker 1: for the service he provides. So spread the word. If
- 1:41Speaker 1: somebody needs a podcast produced, he's the man to do it.
- 1:43Speaker 1: Just give him a call. Or you can give me
- 1:45Speaker 1: a call if there's a subject matter you'd like to
- 1:46Speaker 1: talk about, 513-749-5500, 800-823-TALK, or pound 550 on AT &
- 1:48Speaker 1: T phones. Just a reminder, over at 55KRC. iheart. com, you've got
- 1:56Speaker 1: all the podcasts like yesterday's morning show. Not broken down,
- 1:59Speaker 1: but that's okay. Now that Joe's back, the podcast page
- 2:05Speaker 1: has returned to normal. Coming up, we've got 7.05, Dr.
- 2:08Speaker 1: Jay Rissa, the Empower You Seminars for the week. And actually,
- 2:11Speaker 1: it's a double dip on that one because we will
- 2:13Speaker 1: talk about the podcast that's taking place tonight, Tuesdays and Thursdays,
- 2:17Speaker 1: for the vast majority of the Empower You Seminars. Tonight,
- 2:20Speaker 1: assessing the midterm elections with Breitbart's Bradley Jay. Hmm, timing
- 2:25Speaker 1: on that couldn't be better. Because right after Tom Zawistowski
- 2:29Speaker 1: joins the program at 7.30 to talk about wethepeopleconvention.org and
- 2:32Speaker 1: Marco Rubio's Greece speech, and I'm sure Tom will have
- 2:38Speaker 1: a word or two to say about getting out and vote,
- 2:41Speaker 1: which you can do now, remember? Early voting is on.
- 2:47Speaker 1: Inside Scoop with Breitbart News today will feature politics editor
- 2:51Speaker 1: Bradley Jay, during which he will promote his Empower You seminar,
- 2:55Speaker 1: which is assessing the midterm elections. And we will be
- 2:58Speaker 1: assessing the midterm elections with him just here in a
- 3:02Speaker 1: moment as well. Daniel Davis deep dive. I guess that
- 3:05Speaker 1: whole idea of not blowing up critical infrastructure like oil
- 3:11Speaker 1: facilities and refineries, It didn't last too long. Trump declared it,
- 3:15Speaker 1: and then both Russia and Ukraine just ignored it. That
- 3:18Speaker 1: seems to be that. Plus the Houthis and their bombing
- 3:22Speaker 1: of Saudi Arabia and the air bases and the death
- 3:24Speaker 1: of so many people. I'm sure he'll be all over
- 3:26Speaker 1: that and breaking it down for us as he does
- 3:28Speaker 1: every Tuesday. Daniel Davis deep dive with retired Lieutenant Colonel
- 3:33Speaker 1: Daniel Davis. Plus my friends from OHG join the program. Yes,
- 3:37Speaker 1: my cancer doctors will join us for Ask the Experts.
- 3:40Speaker 1: This morning at the tail end of the 8 o'clock hour, Dr.
- 3:42Speaker 1: Abigail Trembling. It's Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Do your self-exams.
- 3:53Speaker 1: Do your mammographies when your doctor says so. And listen
- 3:56Speaker 1: to what the doctor has to say with our segment
- 4:00Speaker 1: at 8 o'clock, closing out the show this morning. Okay,
- 4:03Speaker 1: what do we got going on here? 513-749-5500, 800-823-TALK, pound
- 4:06Speaker 1: 550 on AT & T phones. You can call Joe
- 4:08Speaker 1: up and have him do your podcast or bring up
- 4:11Speaker 1: a topic. I love this. Gerard Baker, I was talking
- 4:15Speaker 1: about this the other day. Everything in the economy is
- 4:17Speaker 1: doing really well. I mean, all kinds of reports. The
- 4:23Speaker 1: economy is doing really well. And I know the price
- 4:25Speaker 1: of gasoline is up, but it's coming down. Less than
- 4:29Speaker 1: $ 4 the other day. I saw that. And sure, the
- 4:32Speaker 1: taxes on gas have been lifted for a temporary pause.
- 4:35Speaker 1: That's okay. More oil is getting through the Gulf. Not
- 4:38Speaker 1: quite sure what the outcome of the situation with Iran
- 4:40Speaker 1: is going to be, but things seem to be stabilizing.
- 4:44Speaker 1: Economic numbers are all doing great. Gerard Baker notes this.
- 4:47Speaker 1: It's the economy, stupid. Remember that, James Carville? Baker says,
- 4:52Speaker 1: you know, since long before James Carville pinned his famous
- 4:55Speaker 1: epigram on the wall of Bill Clinton's campaign headquarters in 1992,
- 4:59Speaker 1: It's the economy, stupid. The reductive formula for success or
- 5:02Speaker 1: failure in elections has been obvious. The material condition of
- 5:08Speaker 1: the people. Carville's maxim on the second of a triplet.
- 5:12Speaker 1: The others were about change in health care, but it
- 5:15Speaker 1: resonated for the timeless reliability of its cephalogical predictiveness. In
- 5:21Speaker 1: other words, its impact on the polling. When the economy sucks,
- 5:27Speaker 1: incumbents lose. It's the primary pre-explanation for the drubbing Republicans
- 5:34Speaker 1: expect next month. But now, as then, it may be
- 5:38Speaker 1: a flawed perception of the economy rather than the economic
- 5:42Speaker 1: reality that's driving voter behavior. And now, as then, the U.S.
- 5:47Speaker 1: is in the early stages of an economic golden age.
- 5:53Speaker 1: By the time Americans voted that November 1992, the recession
- 5:56Speaker 1: Governor Clinton had rhetorically exploited was long over. During the
- 5:59Speaker 1: second half of 1992, gross domestic product expanded in an
- 6:01Speaker 1: annual rate of 4%. Unemployment peaked that summer and was
- 6:05Speaker 1: falling sharply by the time the new president took office.
- 6:08Speaker 1: It's invidious to tell voters that what they believe isn't true.
- 6:11Speaker 1: But today, as then, there can be no other explanation
- 6:16Speaker 1: for the level of popular stomachache over an economy that,
- 6:20Speaker 1: in macro terms, is in robust health. Best sense of
- 6:25Speaker 1: how big a disconnect there is between polling and economic
- 6:28Speaker 1: facts can be had by comparing Trump's current ratings with
- 6:31Speaker 1: his immediate predecessors at the Native America's recent economic performance.
- 6:36Speaker 1: The latest Quinnipiac poll I know about polls, folks, gives
- 6:40Speaker 1: Trump a 31% approval rating on the economy. Ah, June 2022.
- 6:43Speaker 1: Joe Biden? 33%, a whopping two points ahead. Not good.
- 6:51Speaker 1: It sucks. Both of them suck. That month, June 22,
- 6:57Speaker 1: consumer prices were up 9.1% from a year earlier, the
- 7:00Speaker 1: highest inflation in 40 years. In the first half of
- 7:05Speaker 1: the year, the economy had contracted at a rate of
- 7:07Speaker 1: just over 1%. Real rages were falling. Between January 21
- 7:11Speaker 1: and June 22, hourly earnings adjusted for inflation had dropped
- 7:15Speaker 1: by 4.1%. The rate on a 30-year mortgage had almost
- 7:19Speaker 1: doubled from $ 2. 65 to $ 5. 1. Average gasoline prices more than
- 7:23Speaker 1: doubled from $ 2. 39 a gallon to more than $ 5. S &
- 7:26Speaker 1: P index of leading stocks increased just 1% in the
- 7:29Speaker 1: first 18 months of Biden's term. The unemployment rate was
- 7:33Speaker 1: the one bright spot at only 3.6%. Contrast that today.
- 7:38Speaker 1: Consumer price inflation, 3.4. That's a lot lower than it was.
- 7:45Speaker 1: Up since the beginning of Trump's term, but well below
- 7:47Speaker 1: where it was four years ago. Gas prices and interest
- 7:49Speaker 1: rates are up, but not by as much as they
- 7:52Speaker 1: had increased under the Democrats. Gasoline up 65% since inauguration
- 7:57Speaker 1: day at five a gallon, roughly. Mortgage rate 7%, just
- 8:01Speaker 1: about where they were when Trump took office. The first
- 8:05Speaker 1: half of this year, growth averaged more than 2.4%. The
- 8:10Speaker 1: Atlanta Federal Reserve estimates third quarter growth 3.6%. Real wages
- 8:15Speaker 1: are up. S & P 500 up 35%. Unemployment higher
- 8:20Speaker 1: than it was four years ago, but at 4.1%, still
- 8:24Speaker 1: historically low. 1960s, Arthur Okun invented the quote-unquote misery index,
- 8:32Speaker 1: which is the sum of inflation and employment rates, as
- 8:35Speaker 1: a gauge of economic success. On that, Biden scored 12.7
- 8:38Speaker 1: in June 22. Trump, 7.5 now, lower is better. Even
- 8:44Speaker 1: if we create an augmented misery index, adding gasoline prices,
- 8:47Speaker 1: diesel prices, and average mortgage rates, Biden still comes out ahead,
- 8:50Speaker 1: quote unquote, in other words, with the worst number, 29
- 8:52Speaker 1: to Trump's 25. By just about any measure, the economy
- 8:58Speaker 1: is in much better shape today than it was four
- 9:00Speaker 1: years ago, and yet the incumbent gets lower marks. Several
- 9:05Speaker 1: plausible explanations Baker comes up with, voters care less about
- 9:09Speaker 1: the relative softening in inflation the past couple of years
- 9:13Speaker 1: and more about, and this makes sense, the continuing cumulative
- 9:17Speaker 1: increase in prices. Those prices aren't going to go down.
- 9:20Speaker 1: Your chip bag isn't going to get any bigger. After
- 9:24Speaker 1: decades of almost no inflation, prices have risen 25% since 2020.
- 9:27Speaker 1: The incumbent is paying the price. Voters may also see
- 9:34Speaker 1: a clearer link between Trump's policies and the current challenges
- 9:37Speaker 1: than they saw with Biden. Tariffs and a war has
- 9:39Speaker 1: pushed up energy prices both directly and both directly feed
- 9:43Speaker 1: higher costs. There's also the sense that the benefits of
- 9:46Speaker 1: the current economic strength are distributed even less equally than usual.
- 9:50Speaker 1: All those evil billionaires keep getting richer and richer and
- 9:52Speaker 1: none of us are sitting at the table. That's kind
- 9:54Speaker 1: of the perception people have. Yet, as Mr. Clinton's election
- 9:59Speaker 1: in the midst of misadventures, misery coincided with the start
- 10:02Speaker 1: of a long economic boom, so Americans may come to
- 10:06Speaker 1: look back at 2026 as the early stages of a
- 10:09Speaker 1: period of prolonged prosperity. Isn't that something Donald Trump has
- 10:13Speaker 1: promised over and over again? We are standing on the
- 10:16Speaker 1: brink of the economic boom. America is just kicking off.
- 10:19Speaker 1: We are going to be greater than we ever have been.
- 10:22Speaker 1: And so much of this is trending true as I
- 10:24Speaker 1: interject my comments over Baker's observation. Nobody wants to give
- 10:29Speaker 1: evil orange man credit for Jack squat. I was talking
- 10:34Speaker 1: to a very dear loved one yesterday. She will remain
- 10:37Speaker 1: unnamed and just pulling her hair out. I can't wait
- 10:40Speaker 1: till he's gone. The TDS in this woman is beyond
- 10:46Speaker 1: my understanding. I just merely observed, yeah, okay, that's the
- 10:52Speaker 1: way you feel, and if you're going to let that
- 10:54Speaker 1: impact your voting across the board, let me just remind you,
- 10:56Speaker 1: and I went through the whole litany of things, like
- 10:59Speaker 1: I point out the price of energy. Oh, so the
- 11:01Speaker 1: windmill is going to provide you with sufficient energy? That's
- 11:04Speaker 1: what the Democrats want. At least Trump's pushing things that
- 11:08Speaker 1: actually generate power, and I could go on ad nauseum.
- 11:13Speaker 1: about the advancements toward the re-embracing of nuclear power, which
- 11:18Speaker 1: I've been on a tear on for months, if not years,
- 11:21Speaker 1: but it's happening right now. And you can see it
- 11:25Speaker 1: over the horizon, an abundance of electricity. Of course, it's
- 11:28Speaker 1: to power data centers, but it's also going to power
- 11:31Speaker 1: our future because windmills and solar panels will not. Just
- 11:36Speaker 1: one of a multitude of things I rattled off in
- 11:38Speaker 1: response to this, just anger. just to say the name.
- 11:43Speaker 1: What are you going to do after he's gone? I observed.
- 11:51Speaker 1: Which comment was met with silence? Anyway, so Americans may
- 11:57Speaker 1: come to look back on 2026 as the early stages
- 11:59Speaker 1: of a period of prolonged prosperity.
- 12:01Speaker 2: Amen.
- 12:01Speaker 1: Growth is accelerating. Underlying inflation pressures are easing. Consumer prices
- 12:07Speaker 1: minus food and energy rose 2.4% during the year ending
- 12:10Speaker 1: in August.
- 12:11Speaker 3: Down.
- 12:12Speaker 1: From 3.3, when Trump took office. AI investment boom, the
- 12:17Speaker 1: primary driver of growth, and if the productivity increases investors
- 12:20Speaker 1: expect from it, materialized growth may be about to exceed
- 12:23Speaker 1: anything we've seen for decades. Yeah, may. Which would give
- 12:29Speaker 1: a whole new meaning to, it's the economy, stupid. Close quote. Yeah,
- 12:35Speaker 1: a booming economy. You just don't hear about it in
- 12:38Speaker 1: the mainstream media, do you? It's all gloom and doom. Doom, doom, doom.
- 12:41Speaker 1: Are we allowed to pause for a moment and enjoy
- 12:44Speaker 1: any of the benefits of life without being told that
- 12:48Speaker 1: we are supposed to be and should be living our
- 12:50Speaker 1: lives in misery? 518, 55KRC, the talk station. Got a
- 12:55Speaker 1: couple of callers online. I had to get that out
- 12:57Speaker 1: of my system. And I want to mention Otorex at
- 12:59Speaker 1: 5 right now, 55KRC, the talk station. 5.22 on a Tuesday.
- 13:04Speaker 1: Straight to the phones. I will go. Tim, you're going
- 13:06Speaker 1: to have to hold on. New Hampshire Gary was ahead
- 13:08Speaker 1: of you in the call list. Gary, welcome back to
- 13:10Speaker 1: the morning show. Happy Tuesday.
- 13:12Speaker 3: Good morning.
- 13:13Speaker 2: Happy Tuesday to you. Welcome back, Joe. Yay.
- 13:16Speaker 1: Oh, and it's Joe's birthday, too. Let's all wish him
- 13:19Speaker 1: a very happy birthday.
- 13:21Speaker 2: A very happy birthday. I was just scrolling around this morning,
- 13:25Speaker 2: and I get on the web, and I find that
- 13:29Speaker 2: the major... grocery stores over in Europe have been attacked by,
- 13:37Speaker 2: they're saying it was nefarious web spyware that got onto
- 13:44Speaker 2: their Danfoss controllers, their PLZ controllers, and it caused all
- 13:52Speaker 2: the chillers in grocery stores to chill up to 50 Celsius,
- 13:57Speaker 2: which is like 120 degrees.
- 13:58Speaker 1: And I see that. Hackers gain control of software that
- 14:06Speaker 1: regulates the temperature of the refrigeration units, forcing some to
- 14:09Speaker 1: warm to 120 degrees Fahrenheit overnight, according to one supermarket
- 14:13Speaker 1: chain affected. Wow.
- 14:15Speaker 2: So you go to the Dan Foss homepage, which I did,
- 14:19Speaker 2: and I find out that all the PLG controllers, you know,
- 14:22Speaker 2: besides all the major grocery stores and the warehouses in
- 14:28Speaker 2: the United States are controlled with these new PLZ Danfoss controllers.
- 14:33Speaker 2: You go to the Danfoss homepage. It's not listed on
- 14:37Speaker 2: their news yet that they're being hacked. But then you
- 14:41Speaker 2: find out all the other things that this PLZ controls,
- 14:45Speaker 2: which is automotive buildings, district energies, energies and natural sources, food, beverages, Industry,
- 14:55Speaker 2: main and offshore, and refrigeration, air conditioning, water and wastewater
- 15:01Speaker 2: services are controlled with these PLCs. It's really kind of fun.
- 15:06Speaker 2: You can just find out all that's connected, you know?
- 15:11Speaker 4: Wow.
- 15:11Speaker 2: And then you remember we're in a war, and everything's
- 15:16Speaker 2: up for cyber hacking. Yeah.
- 15:19Speaker 1: And, you know, consider this. We are in a war.
- 15:22Speaker 1: There is no question about it. You know, and there's
- 15:25Speaker 1: kinetic war with bombs being dropped, but there's this cyber war.
- 15:29Speaker 1: And I've thought about this. I may even set it
- 15:30Speaker 1: out loud on the radio. If someone were to drop
- 15:32Speaker 1: a nuclear bomb on a city, it would devastate and
- 15:35Speaker 1: destroy the entire city, and the outrage would be overwhelming. Genocide,
- 15:39Speaker 1: you know, cries of, you know, you can just hear it.
- 15:42Speaker 1: And why would anybody want to do that? Move over
- 15:46Speaker 1: to this type of warfare where if you can shut
- 15:49Speaker 1: off electricity, I would argue, and it's not difficult to,
- 15:52Speaker 1: you know, extrapolate on this, that more people could die
- 15:55Speaker 1: as a consequence of the electricity being shut off for
- 15:57Speaker 1: a prolonged period of time than you could kill with
- 16:00Speaker 1: a bomb dropped on a major city. The ripple effect
- 16:04Speaker 1: is amazing. It's profound. Starvation would ensue. Things don't work.
- 16:08Speaker 1: You know, it's not just ventilators and hospitals going off.
- 16:11Speaker 1: The supply chain would be completely eliminated, right?
- 16:14Speaker 2: I mean, it's district energy. Everything's controlled with this. And
- 16:20Speaker 2: part of the problem Here was the interesting thing. Because
- 16:25Speaker 2: of the rapidly changing environment, and they tout this on
- 16:29Speaker 2: their web page, because of the rapid changing environment of
- 16:34Speaker 2: environmental controls, there's a lot of companies that have been
- 16:38Speaker 2: glomming on to this. And it's been a boom for
- 16:41Speaker 2: Dan Foss over the last 10 years. And everybody's going
- 16:46Speaker 2: to AI. This is an AI-controlled system. And everybody's doing
- 16:53Speaker 2: it because they're changing the environmental regulations with refrigeration and that.
- 16:58Speaker 2: But then you go in, you find out that this
- 17:00Speaker 2: PLZ system is controlled in a multitude of everything. Just like,
- 17:06Speaker 2: not just the grocery stores, but the refrigeration units.
- 17:09Speaker 1: Yeah, they're like smart thermostats in a way.
- 17:13Speaker 2: Oh, it's huge. And then they're behind energy and natural
- 17:17Speaker 2: resource district energy. whatever that means. Does that mean electric?
- 17:22Speaker 5: I don't know.
- 17:24Speaker 1: Well, it's scary stuff. There's no question about it in Hampshire, Gary.
- 17:30Speaker 1: Maybe they got ahead of this Danfoss issue with this
- 17:33Speaker 1: freezer hack. Oh, my God, if they can hack into
- 17:36Speaker 1: the freezers at French supermarkets, Lord Almighty, look where all
- 17:39Speaker 1: of these controllers happen to be, literally everywhere. Maybe we
- 17:42Speaker 1: need to get in front of this before, well, someone
- 17:44Speaker 1: flips the next switch in this war that we are
- 17:47Speaker 1: literally engaged in right now. Appreciate the call. Tom and Tim,
- 17:51Speaker 1: you've got to hang on. I am out of time completely.
- 17:53Speaker 1: 527 right now, and I want to mention QC Kinetics
- 17:55Speaker 1: because if you've got pain, you need to get rid
- 17:57Speaker 1: of it. Don't go under the night. You may know
- 18:00Speaker 1: this already. According to a news article posted by Fox
- 18:04Speaker 1: 19 this morning, thank you, Joe Strecker, for finding the
- 18:06Speaker 1: upper deck of Western Hills Viaduct ramp closed at northbound I-75.
- 18:11Speaker 1: A shooting investigation. Good morning, Christopher Smith. It all started.
- 18:15Speaker 1: 911 call reported somebody being shot on Gurley Road. At
- 18:20Speaker 1: 20 to 4 in the morning, a pursuit was reported.
- 18:23Speaker 1: Police closed the viaduct and called the fire department to
- 18:26Speaker 1: respond after finding somebody shot. Person shot in the hospital
- 18:29Speaker 1: with non-life-threatening injuries, according to the sergeant who was speaking
- 18:32Speaker 1: with Fox 19. So police also on the scene at
- 18:35Speaker 1: Gurley Road, which they say was blocked off at least
- 18:37Speaker 1: as of about an hour ago. I don't know what
- 18:39Speaker 1: the current situation is, but we'll get a traffic update
- 18:41Speaker 1: in the next segment. In the meantime, over to the phones.
- 18:43Speaker 1: Tim's been kind enough to hold Tim. Welcome to the
- 18:46Speaker 1: morning show and happy Tuesday.
- 18:48Speaker 6: Well, good morning.
- 18:49Speaker 2: First of all, happy birthday, Joe Strecker.
- 18:51Speaker 1: Amen.
- 18:51Speaker 6: My birthday will be the 22nd of October.
- 18:53Speaker 7: Happy early birthday.
- 18:54Speaker 6: So there's some good people this month.
- 18:57Speaker 1: You got it.
- 18:57Speaker 8: Yes.
- 18:58Speaker 6: Anyway, I had fun at your listener lunch, and you
- 19:02Speaker 6: privileged Mike. You know, you two go at it pretty
- 19:04Speaker 6: good at that, so I enjoyed watching you guys.
- 19:06Speaker 1: That was fun.
- 19:08Speaker 9: Yes, it was.
- 19:09Speaker 6: And then my cash for clunker was sitting.
- 19:11Speaker 9: In the parking lot.
- 19:12Speaker 6: Obama didn't get my Suburban.
- 19:14Speaker 2: It's still around.
- 19:15Speaker 1: I saw it, Tim. So what is on your mind
- 19:17Speaker 1: today other than a rehash of our listener lunch events, Tim?
- 19:22Speaker 7: Well, let's see.
- 19:23Speaker 6: Where's that daggone Obama been? Has he been curator of
- 19:27Speaker 6: his Thomas Garbage Can Library? Haven't heard much from him lately.
- 19:31Speaker 1: You might hear from him. Apparently the employees at the
- 19:34Speaker 1: Presidential Library want to unionize. And since he's such a
- 19:37Speaker 1: big fan of unionize, apparently the working conditions at the
- 19:40Speaker 1: library suck, according to the reporting on that one. So
- 19:43Speaker 1: maybe he's tending to affairs there. Are you suggesting you
- 19:46Speaker 1: want more of Barack Obama running around? He's campaigning for it.
- 19:50Speaker 1: Abdul El-Sayed, if that's not bad enough.
- 19:53Speaker 2: Oh, that is bad.
- 19:54Speaker 6: I mean, you know, he just ought to go back
- 19:56Speaker 6: to Kenya and see if he can stand to his
- 19:58Speaker 6: brother's grass head, stand next to his brother's grass head.
- 20:01Speaker 1: All right, Tim, you're entitled to your own opinion. I'm
- 20:03Speaker 1: going to go over and get Tom now. He's been
- 20:04Speaker 1: on hold. Tim, flip phone Tim, have a good day. Tom,
- 20:07Speaker 1: welcome to the morning show and happy Tuesday.
- 20:10Speaker 2: Well, good morning.
- 20:11Speaker 9: How are you doing?
- 20:12Speaker 1: Where in the hell have you been?
- 20:16Speaker 9: Well, it's interesting. We got down here the weekend before
- 20:21Speaker 9: last to start my new job and then worked a
- 20:25Speaker 9: few days. I'm on central time here, so it's going
- 20:28Speaker 9: to be difficult for me to be calling in. Kind
- 20:31Speaker 9: of like when I switched to that 5 o'clock time
- 20:33Speaker 9: slot job. It's going to be kind of the same deal.
- 20:36Speaker 9: Every once in a great while, I'll be able to
- 20:38Speaker 9: call in because it's just... It just doesn't work out.
- 20:41Speaker 9: So I just happened to get up this morning at
- 20:45Speaker 9: 4 o'clock to hear this time. So I figured I'll
- 20:47Speaker 9: give Brian a call and say happy birthday to Joe.
- 20:51Speaker 9: Actually had to come home this past weekend because, as
- 20:55Speaker 9: I'm sure you might have been aware, we had to
- 20:57Speaker 9: run away from a hurricane. So you know what's really
- 21:01Speaker 9: helpful when the power is out? A gasoline combustible engine
- 21:05Speaker 9: vehicle so you can.
- 21:06Speaker 2: Charge your car.
- 21:07Speaker 9: Your whatever, phones and devices and stuff. So all the
- 21:12Speaker 9: leftists in a hurry to get rid of gasoline cars.
- 21:15Speaker 9: How did your Tesla work with that? Power was out
- 21:17Speaker 9: here for a few days.
- 21:19Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 21:20Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 21:21Speaker 9: Kind of like what you mentioned a little bit ago
- 21:23Speaker 9: about electric power. Yeah.
- 21:28Speaker 1: And let's not forget, we will not be able to
- 21:30Speaker 1: do any banking if the power goes out. Right.
- 21:34Speaker 9: Yeah, I mean, I tried to pay for a meal yesterday,
- 21:39Speaker 9: and thankfully we had cash on us because the waiter
- 21:43Speaker 9: came over and said, hey, the credit card machine is
- 21:45Speaker 9: down right now. It's kind of been off and on
- 21:48Speaker 9: since we were trying to– because we were down at
- 21:50Speaker 9: Fort Walton Beach, like on the beach where the storm hit,
- 21:53Speaker 9: and they were just getting things back up running. And
- 21:56Speaker 9: that's just a natural thing. By the way, interesting note
- 22:00Speaker 9: that this was the first hurricane of the season. One
- 22:04Speaker 9: hurricane this year? I thought us terrible humans with all
- 22:09Speaker 9: of our carbon dioxide or whatever it was we're doing,
- 22:13Speaker 9: I thought we were just creating more hurricanes. There was
- 22:15Speaker 9: only one this year?
- 22:17Speaker 1: I sense that this whole idea of global warming, climate alarmism,
- 22:24Speaker 1: is the fad that has finally passed us or is
- 22:27Speaker 1: in its final death throes, yes.
- 22:30Speaker 9: Well, it was great. I got into town last. We
- 22:33Speaker 9: left out of here Thursday, got into town Friday in Cincinnati,
- 22:37Speaker 9: got off the exit. I ran into one of your
- 22:39Speaker 9: loyal listeners, Brian with a Y, the pride of Toledo, Ohio. Actually,
- 22:45Speaker 9: it just happened to run into him at a gas station.
- 22:48Speaker 9: So that was good. It was good to see him.
- 22:50Speaker 9: And then next, our first actual stop was at the
- 22:53Speaker 9: Board of Elections. We went ahead and voted while we
- 22:56Speaker 9: were there. And it was a nice turnout. A lot
- 23:00Speaker 9: of people there. Hopefully that stays and people vote.
- 23:03Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 23:03Speaker 9: And get out there. Do whatever you got to do
- 23:06Speaker 9: to vote. Don't let anything stop you from voting. It
- 23:08Speaker 9: really isn't that difficult. You can vote. And when you do,
- 23:13Speaker 9: by the way, and no one sees this coming, when
- 23:16Speaker 9: you do vote, don't vote Democrat. Happy birthday, Joe, and
- 23:20Speaker 9: have a great day.
- 23:21Speaker 1: You too, Tom. I'm glad to hear from you. I'm
- 23:22Speaker 1: glad everything's okay. And I'll at least understand that nothing's
- 23:25Speaker 1: wrong with you. You're just not calling in because you're
- 23:27Speaker 1: in a different time zone. How about getting in touch
- 23:29Speaker 1: with Mickey? Chuck Ingram, 55KRC, the talk station. It's 541
- 23:36Speaker 1: on a Tuesday. Happy one to you. 513-749-5500, 800-823-TALK, and
- 23:44Speaker 1: 55KRC. iheart. com for all the information related to the show, podcast,
- 23:48Speaker 1: and blog page. Over to the stack of stupid.
- 23:52Speaker 10: As is tradition.
- 23:52Speaker 1: And why not? Something to chuckle about. Here's a very brief,
- 24:00Speaker 1: it's probably the shortest stack of stupid article I think
- 24:03Speaker 1: I've ever encountered. Fremont Police Department said officers responded Monday
- 24:07Speaker 1: to a report of an indecent exposure at a hotel
- 24:09Speaker 1: on Warren Boulevard. Court of the Police. Hotel employee reported
- 24:13Speaker 1: a guest was pleasuring himself in front of her. Police
- 24:19Speaker 1: said officers later located the suspect at the hotel room
- 24:22Speaker 1: and arrested him. That's it. That's all.
- 24:26Speaker 4: All right.
- 24:31Speaker 1: Oh, yeah, deliberate penalties, right, in the penalty box, Joe,
- 24:33Speaker 1: hockey player. You know, if I say that out loud,
- 24:37Speaker 1: how many people understand the reference? You think three? I
- 24:41Speaker 1: think that's probably less than that. There's one person out
- 24:43Speaker 1: there going, oh, he's referring to Slapshot, starring Paul Newman
- 24:47Speaker 1: from the 1970s. Woman arrested after she drove nearly five
- 24:52Speaker 1: miles with her boyfriend clinging to the hood of the car.
- 24:56Speaker 1: Why are you doing that? Let's find out together since
- 24:58Speaker 1: I didn't read the article in advance. Put something in
- 25:00Speaker 1: front of Thomas, he'll read anything. Lenore County Sheriff's Office
- 25:03Speaker 1: said deputies responded to reports of domestic incident Saturday. Genesia Greenfield-Williams,
- 25:10Speaker 1: 23 years old, driving with a boyfriend in the hood
- 25:12Speaker 1: of the car, driving recklessly, they say, for 4.6 miles,
- 25:16Speaker 1: reaching speeds up to 60 miles an hour and swerving.
- 25:21Speaker 1: What's more, authorities said her three-year-old child was in the
- 25:24Speaker 1: car at the time. Authorities able to safely conduct a
- 25:28Speaker 1: traffic stop. Man on the car assessed and released without injuries.
- 25:32Speaker 1: Lucky him. Greenfield Williams refused to get into the patrol vehicle.
- 25:38Speaker 1: Who else has seen viral videos about arrests where unruly
- 25:42Speaker 1: women go screaming and fighting and refuse to get put
- 25:46Speaker 1: into the car because they're under arrest? God, I've seen
- 25:50Speaker 1: so many of those. It seems like it happens literally
- 25:51Speaker 1: every day. Police officers out there, I feel for you, man. Anyway,
- 25:55Speaker 1: eventually taken to Lenore County Jail, facing several charges, including
- 25:59Speaker 1: a felony count of assault with a deadly weapon with
- 26:01Speaker 1: intent to kill, assault with a deadly weapon with a
- 26:03Speaker 1: minor present, reckless driving to endanger, resisting public officer, misdemeanor
- 26:07Speaker 1: crime of domestic violence, and multiple traffic violations.
- 26:11Speaker 4: Just walk away.
- 26:13Speaker 1: A better course of action. Let's see here. You have
- 26:20Speaker 1: one more in here. Fugitive wanted on two states. Hillsborough
- 26:24Speaker 1: County Sheriff's Office were in Florida for this one. According
- 26:27Speaker 1: to the online booking records there, Jonathan Beach Terry, 42
- 26:30Speaker 1: years old of Dover, arrested October 1st. In a news release,
- 26:35Speaker 1: the Sheriff's Office said that he was wanted in Kentucky
- 26:37Speaker 1: on an active warrant for violating his probation and possession
- 26:39Speaker 1: of a controlled substance. Also sought for four years in
- 26:44Speaker 1: the state of Indiana for failure to appear in a
- 26:46Speaker 1: methamphetamine possession charge. October 1st, the evening, Deputies from the
- 26:52Speaker 1: Sheriff's Office and the Aviation Unit responded to an area
- 26:55Speaker 1: of Dover. This is outside of Tampa. Aviation Unit found
- 26:59Speaker 1: Terry hiding under a shed overhang. Deputies approached Terry. They
- 27:04Speaker 1: saw him reach into his clothing and throw a pair
- 27:06Speaker 1: of brass knuckles underneath a nearby vehicle. After he was arrested,
- 27:11Speaker 1: deputies say they discovered a handcuff key taped inside his underwear.
- 27:16Speaker 11: What?
- 27:17Speaker 1: He was planning ahead. According to the sheriff's release, the
- 27:24Speaker 1: convicted felon wanted two states underestimated the skill and determination
- 27:27Speaker 1: of the team at the H.C.S.O. He now faces charges
- 27:33Speaker 1: here and must answer for his crimes in Indiana as
- 27:35Speaker 1: well as Kentucky. 545 right now, 55KRC, the talk station.
- 27:38Speaker 1: A phone call you need to make. 55KRC, the talk station.
- 27:43Speaker 1: It's 550, 55KRC, the talk station. Yeah, police activity. Someone
- 27:46Speaker 1: got shot. But crime is not a problem. Nothing to
- 27:51Speaker 1: see here. I woke up this morning, got a text
- 27:54Speaker 1: from some of the men at a shooting yesterday. He
- 27:56Speaker 1: even said the same thing. Yeah, if they don't die,
- 28:01Speaker 1: as long as they don't die, there's no crime. Look,
- 28:04Speaker 1: murder rates down. Got all these people gotten shot up
- 28:06Speaker 1: thanks to the UC Medical Center sewing them back together again.
- 28:09Speaker 1: They don't die, ergo the crime is down. Naked people.
- 28:14Speaker 5: As is tradition.
- 28:15Speaker 1: Of course, I refer to the stack as stupid. At
- 28:17Speaker 1: least I hope you got that. Three days after a
- 28:19Speaker 1: naked guy was spotted walking around a Sherman Park neighborhood.
- 28:22Speaker 1: This is Milwaukee. Yet another naked person has shown up
- 28:25Speaker 1: in the city. Milwaukee Public Schools confirmed a naked person
- 28:29Speaker 1: was walking near the William Cullen Bryan Elementary School. Why
- 28:33Speaker 1: are you doing that? I don't know. We'll find out.
- 28:37Speaker 1: This was on Tuesday morning. Last. District officials say some
- 28:42Speaker 1: students inside the school saw the naked person near the campus. Remember,
- 28:45Speaker 1: it's an elementary school. The person was not on school
- 28:47Speaker 1: grounds and not connected to the school. Milwaukee police showed up.
- 28:52Speaker 1: City of Milwaukee worker in the area alerted the school
- 28:54Speaker 1: officials and said that he had reported the person to police.
- 29:00Speaker 1: Following a full letter from families from the school, we
- 29:03Speaker 1: value you as, this is one of those legal approved messages,
- 29:06Speaker 1: we value you as a member of our school community.
- 29:08Speaker 1: We want you to know about a situation that took
- 29:09Speaker 1: place today. So anyway, individual unconnected with the school, naked,
- 29:13Speaker 1: walking around outside the elementary school. Creepy, of course. Milwaukee
- 29:16Speaker 1: police said when officers responded to the scene, they took
- 29:18Speaker 1: the naked person to a mental health facility for an
- 29:21Speaker 1: emergency evaluation. Being days after the naked guy was found
- 29:29Speaker 1: in a neighboring area, Milwaukee police say they do not
- 29:32Speaker 1: believe the incidents are connected.
- 29:34Speaker 4: Now, who can argue with that?
- 29:41Speaker 1: According to a criminal complaint, an Iowa woman named Shanaise Hill,
- 29:49Speaker 1: now facing multiple charges for allegedly using a stolen credit
- 29:52Speaker 1: card to rent bouncy houses. Idiots doing idiot things because
- 29:59Speaker 1: they're idiots. She ordered the inflatable bouncy houses for Father's
- 30:02Speaker 1: Day and Fourth of July parties in Iowa City. She's
- 30:05Speaker 1: a mother of three young children and she's been charged
- 30:07Speaker 1: with theft and unauthorized use of a credit card. Police
- 30:11Speaker 1: investigation of Hill began after the victims reported alleged fraud,
- 30:14Speaker 1: which left the bouncy house proprietor stuck with the charges
- 30:18Speaker 1: with losses totaling $ 1, 350. Upon being questioned by cops, Hill
- 30:24Speaker 1: denied ordering the bouncy houses, but The, quote, phone numbers
- 30:27Speaker 1: and emails used to order the rentals are numbers and
- 30:30Speaker 1: accounts owned by her and or she oversees and are
- 30:33Speaker 1: assigned to her juvenile children. Additionally, again from the police report,
- 30:39Speaker 1: defendant rented the space in Iowa City where the castle
- 30:42Speaker 1: was placed. Wasn't me. Not clear how she obtained the
- 30:47Speaker 1: stolen credit card, but police say it is likely the
- 30:49Speaker 1: numbers were purchased online and stolen virtually. She was freed
- 30:54Speaker 1: on a $ 6, 000 bond.
- 30:56Speaker 10: Wasn't me.
- 30:57Speaker 1: Right. Careful out there, guys. We go to Miami for
- 31:02Speaker 1: this one. Dizzy Ree. D-E-Z-I-R-E-E. That's her first name. Good.
- 31:08Speaker 1: Dizzy Ree Hood has been accused of using dates and
- 31:11Speaker 1: a night out at a Miami strip club to get
- 31:13Speaker 1: close to men and then stealing jewelry and cash as
- 31:16Speaker 1: well as other valuables. Detectives say she stole two gold
- 31:19Speaker 1: chains worth about $ 110, 000. from a man she met at,
- 31:26Speaker 1: are you ready? The Booby Trap on the river. Phrasing.
- 31:32Speaker 1: That's the name of the joint. Miami police called it
- 31:36Speaker 1: a robbery by seduction. Weeks later, investigators say Hood was
- 31:40Speaker 1: back at the Booby Trap and went home with another
- 31:42Speaker 1: man to keep the party going. Police say the man
- 31:44Speaker 1: woke up and discovered he'd been robbed. Police say the
- 31:48Speaker 1: stolen jewelry, apparel, and U.S. currency totaled $ 25, 400. She'd been
- 31:55Speaker 1: arrested previously by deputies with Miami-Dade Police Office last year
- 31:59Speaker 1: after agreeing to accept $ 120 in exchange for sex acts
- 32:03Speaker 1: from an undercover detective. Also connected to a story that
- 32:07Speaker 1: was previously reported by local news there back in May,
- 32:09Speaker 1: accused of stealing tens of thousands of dollars in jewelry
- 32:12Speaker 1: as well as a $ 14, 000 Rolex from a man at
- 32:17Speaker 1: Candlewood Suites in Miami. Prosecutors say she may have drugged
- 32:21Speaker 1: that victim. Days later, they say she stole $ 60, 000 worth
- 32:25Speaker 1: of valuables from another guy. Turned herself in to the
- 32:28Speaker 1: Miami police with the help of her lawyer, ordered by
- 32:30Speaker 1: the judge to stay away from the booby trap. On
- 32:35Speaker 1: bond when police say she committed the extra crimes, now
- 32:37Speaker 1: being held on a second-degree grand theft charge. Still being
- 32:41Speaker 1: held at the Turner Guilford Night Correctional Center. As of
- 32:44Speaker 1: last reporting, her bond was listed as to be set.
- 32:47Speaker 4: 555.
- 32:50Speaker 1: 55KRC, the talk station. Lots going on at the 6
- 32:52Speaker 1: o'clock hour. Phone calls are always welcome here on the
- 32:54Speaker 1: 55KRC Morning Show. I'll be back after the top of

- 33:16Speaker 1: pound 550 on AT & T phones. Coming up in
- 33:21Speaker 1: an hour, Dr. Jay returns to talk about this week's
- 33:23Speaker 1: Empower You seminars, which include Bradley Jay. He's the Breitbart
- 33:29Speaker 1: News political editor, and Bradley's going to be talking about
- 33:32Speaker 1: the midterm elections, assessing them ahead of time. He'll be
- 33:37Speaker 1: doing that at 8.05. He will. Dr. Jay will talk
- 33:40Speaker 1: about the seminar and actually... Bradley Jay will be on
- 33:43Speaker 1: the phone from Breitbart talking about the seminar as well.
- 33:46Speaker 1: So we get a double dose of that. But just
- 33:47Speaker 1: know that empoweryouamerica.org is the place to be. You can
- 33:50Speaker 1: log in from the comfort of your own home, and
- 33:52Speaker 1: Jay will give us all the details for that and
- 33:53Speaker 1: the other seminars coming up. Tom Zawistowski returns, as he
- 33:56Speaker 1: does on a Tuesday at 730. Weathepeopleconvention.org's Tom Z. We'll
- 34:00Speaker 1: be talking about the need to get out and vote.
- 34:03Speaker 1: Lots of folks have. Christopher Smitherman voted. You should, too.
- 34:08Speaker 1: Utilize that early voting. Democrats love early voting. Why wouldn't
- 34:11Speaker 1: we take advantage of it? He'll also be breaking down
- 34:13Speaker 1: Marco Rubio's Greece speech. Again, Bradley Jade, 805, and then
- 34:18Speaker 1: Daniel Davis, Deep Dive with the latest on the Iran
- 34:21Speaker 1: war as well as the situation going on with Russia
- 34:23Speaker 1: and Ukraine. Plus, our Ask the Expert today, it's Breast
- 34:28Speaker 1: Cancer Awareness Month, so my friends from OHC join us
- 34:31Speaker 1: at 8.50. Dr. Abigail Tremeling specifically to give us some
- 34:35Speaker 1: info about Breast Cancer Awareness Month. There you have it. 513-749-5500, 800-823-TALK,
- 34:39Speaker 1: and pound 550 on your AT & T phone. I
- 34:44Speaker 1: loved this. Chris Talgo over at Town Hall breaking this down.
- 34:51Speaker 1: I don't think he's premature in his assessment that we've
- 34:54Speaker 1: moved past this climate alarmism crap. Time for a new crisis, right?
- 35:02Speaker 1: So if we look back and reflect on the whole
- 35:04Speaker 1: global warming, climate alarmism, and all that, okay, they were
- 35:08Speaker 1: successful in getting rid of nuclear power, the Greens, right? Oh,
- 35:13Speaker 1: it's going to be a meltdown. Three-mile island, we're all
- 35:16Speaker 1: going to die. So all across Europe, Greenpeace and everybody
- 35:18Speaker 1: else fighting the nuclear plants. Why were they doing that? Maybe,
- 35:23Speaker 1: as I have pointed out over the years, abundance of power,
- 35:27Speaker 1: Equals wealth, success, and of course consumption. And nobody hates
- 35:30Speaker 1: consumption more than the climate alarmism folks. People who care
- 35:34Speaker 1: about the planet. Mother Earth, we're all going to kill it.
- 35:37Speaker 1: So over the years of course the world didn't get hotter,
- 35:40Speaker 1: it didn't get colder. There was no new ice age
- 35:42Speaker 1: as they were talking about in the 70s. And so
- 35:43Speaker 1: it went from greening or from warming to climate change.
- 35:47Speaker 1: And since none of the predictions came true, what are
- 35:51Speaker 1: we to do? Say the anti-progress leftists come Marxists. who
- 35:57Speaker 1: don't want America to be as prosperous as it has been. And,
- 36:00Speaker 1: of course, if we have an abundance of electricity, it's
- 36:03Speaker 1: going to be even more prosperous, which is where we
- 36:06Speaker 1: are right now. Climate alarmism. And Chris points this out.
- 36:11Speaker 1: For decades, Democratic Socialists of America have used climate alarmism
- 36:14Speaker 1: to advance the crude but effective political tactic known as doomerism.
- 36:18Speaker 1: Reflect on this doomerism, would you, for a moment, folks?
- 36:22Speaker 1: In doing so, the DSA and groups like Sunrise Movement
- 36:24Speaker 1: have created a generation of neurotic doomers who are fraught
- 36:28Speaker 1: with despair, anxiety, and general gloom. Merriam-Webster Dictionary defines a
- 36:33Speaker 1: doomer as a person who is extremely pessimistic, whether in
- 36:36Speaker 1: general or regarding a particular issue, such as AI technology
- 36:41Speaker 1: or the climate, often to the point that they believe
- 36:44Speaker 1: nothing can be done and that efforts to solve the
- 36:47Speaker 1: problems are futile. Doomerism dangerous for society because it promotes
- 36:51Speaker 1: a sense of desperation in which all measures to stop
- 36:55Speaker 1: the supposed existential crisis must be used to save humanity.
- 37:01Speaker 1: We're all going to die. The ocean sea levels are
- 37:03Speaker 1: going to rise. We're going to drown.
- 37:04Speaker 2: Huh?
- 37:06Speaker 1: Desperate times call for desperate measures for a while, for
- 37:10Speaker 1: a while. Anyway, climate alarmist propaganda worked very well in
- 37:15Speaker 1: spreading doomerism, particularly among the youth as a, Chris Talgo notes,
- 37:19Speaker 1: and I will interject there, the youth who were brainwashed
- 37:21Speaker 1: in school with public education curriculum, which offered no contrary
- 37:25Speaker 1: analysis beyond you and I are responsible for the heat
- 37:29Speaker 1: that's happening on any given day. It's our fault. But
- 37:34Speaker 1: after years of dire predictions that never came close to
- 37:37Speaker 1: coming true, Americans began questioning doomerism associated with climate alarmism.
- 37:43Speaker 1: By not buying into the doomerism hype hook, line and
- 37:47Speaker 1: sinker anymore, Americans also began to question the desperate measures
- 37:50Speaker 1: they were told were necessary to avert climate catastrophe. I've
- 37:55Speaker 1: been at that point for so many years now. I
- 37:58Speaker 1: forgot when I came to that moment of awareness. Anyway, eventually,
- 38:02Speaker 1: Americans wised up and realized that they were being gaslit
- 38:05Speaker 1: into believing that the world would end unless they went green.
- 38:10Speaker 1: Most people now have awoken to that. Although it was
- 38:13Speaker 1: egregious that somebody fell for the climate alarmist-doomerism rhetoric, it
- 38:17Speaker 1: is good to know that at least for the time being,
- 38:19Speaker 1: I emphasize, most Americans have seen the light. So I
- 38:24Speaker 1: guess it's time for a pivot, isn't it, folks? You're
- 38:27Speaker 1: not wigged out anymore. You're not doing stupid things in
- 38:30Speaker 1: the name of, well, stopping the globe from getting hotter.
- 38:33Speaker 1: You're not cutting your own throat. You're actively pursuing energy.
- 38:36Speaker 1: Look what Europe's going through because they went down that road.
- 38:39Speaker 1: You know, wintertime is coming. They don't have enough fuel
- 38:41Speaker 1: to keep their homes warm. People are going to die.
- 38:44Speaker 1: We need to stop this. That's where we are. So
- 38:46Speaker 1: what do we do? We pivot over to something else
- 38:48Speaker 1: that is going to kill us all.
- 38:51Speaker 2: Right.
- 38:51Speaker 1: Artificial intelligence. Just as Americans waking up to that, we're
- 38:58Speaker 1: not on the verge of climate calamity. Many now falling
- 39:01Speaker 1: for the latest doomerism folly, AI and data centers.
- 39:05Speaker 2: See, in.
- 39:09Speaker 1: I am of the mind and thoroughly convinced, because this
- 39:11Speaker 1: is something else I've been saying for a long time. Huh,
- 39:14Speaker 1: data centers, they do use a lot of electricity. That
- 39:16Speaker 1: makes the energy bills go up, so we need more electricity.
- 39:18Speaker 1: What's the answer? Small modular reactors, which don't produce any
- 39:21Speaker 1: carbon dioxide, take a very small footprint, and are readily
- 39:23Speaker 1: available off the shelf and don't require an individual design.
- 39:26Speaker 1: Anybody can grab one and use it if they have
- 39:28Speaker 1: the money to buy one. Who's got the money to
- 39:29Speaker 1: buy one?
- 39:30Speaker 7: One?
- 39:30Speaker 1: Multi-billionaire companies that have artificial intelligence they want to develop
- 39:33Speaker 1: and build data centers. The answer to everyone's energy demand
- 39:37Speaker 1: problems is right there, and the AI facilities are going
- 39:41Speaker 1: to bring that to us.
- 39:44Speaker 7: That.
- 39:44Speaker 1: Something that works, which has been denied us by the
- 39:47Speaker 1: powers that be in federal government and elsewhere. They see
- 39:52Speaker 1: it coming. We've got to do something. We need to
- 39:54Speaker 1: ratchet up anger against the AI facilities. And in so doing,
- 39:58Speaker 1: we will stop these small modular reactors from coming online. Maybe. March,
- 40:05Speaker 1: doomerism die cast when Bernie Sanders and AOC announced the
- 40:09Speaker 1: Artificial Intelligence Data Center Moratorium Act. AOC said Congress has
- 40:14Speaker 1: a moral obligation to stand with American people to stop
- 40:17Speaker 1: the expansion of these data centers until we have a
- 40:19Speaker 1: framework to adequately address the existential harm AI poses to
- 40:23Speaker 1: our society. We must choose humanity over profit. Well, that
- 40:27Speaker 1: sounds familiar, doesn't it?
- 40:29Speaker 4: Huh?
- 40:31Speaker 1: They don't even have to do much to change the signs.
- 40:35Speaker 1: In June, the Democratic Socialists of America launched a nationwide
- 40:38Speaker 1: campaign against data centers. Their word, they claimed, has already
- 40:44Speaker 1: resulted in moratoriums across the country. Check out your county
- 40:47Speaker 1: board meetings or your trustee meetings. Check out the not
- 40:50Speaker 1: in my backyard suits that are being filed and not
- 40:52Speaker 1: in my backyard areas of the country where, well, they
- 40:55Speaker 1: don't want a data center. Nearly all 200 DSA members
- 41:00Speaker 1: that are running for political offices coming up in the
- 41:03Speaker 1: midterm elections have embraced data center moratoriums. And that shocked
- 41:07Speaker 1: me to read that fun fact that doesn't have anything
- 41:09Speaker 1: to do with the with this pivot to AI, 200
- 41:13Speaker 1: DSA members are running. So it's not just Abdul El-Sayed.
- 41:21Speaker 1: There's a lot of them out there. DSA member Angie Nixon,
- 41:26Speaker 1: who's running for U.S. Senate in Florida, said data centers
- 41:28Speaker 1: threaten society while a handful of billionaires reap the profits.
- 41:32Speaker 1: So she supports no new construction of data centers before
- 41:34Speaker 1: there are, in her words, real federal guardrails in place.
- 41:39Speaker 1: Bradland or who's DSA running for house in the U
- 41:41Speaker 1: S house in New York. Then unless we put serious
- 41:44Speaker 1: protections in place to address the risk posed by AI
- 41:47Speaker 1: to our economy, environment, democracy, and humanity and embrace Sanders moratorium,
- 41:55Speaker 1: there is a non-negligible chance that AI could lead to
- 41:59Speaker 1: human extinction. Get worried folks. The conflation of data center
- 42:05Speaker 1: development with AI is going to wipe out humanity is
- 42:08Speaker 1: both smart and deceitful, he notes. More than 70% of
- 42:12Speaker 1: Americans based on Gallup polling, I know, oppose local construction
- 42:16Speaker 1: of AI data centers like climate alarmism, data center dumerism
- 42:20Speaker 1: based on straw man arguments that lack rigor, let alone imagination.
- 42:24Speaker 1: The water problem, you know, they figured that one out
- 42:26Speaker 1: a long time ago because I guess someone bothered to
- 42:28Speaker 1: look at a car engine and realizes that it's a
- 42:30Speaker 1: closed loop system that provides cooling for your engine and wow,
- 42:34Speaker 1: Maybe we should apply that to data centers so no
- 42:36Speaker 1: longer do they use volumes of water that barely exceed
- 42:39Speaker 1: those used by golf courses. Closed-loop cooling has been brought
- 42:43Speaker 1: to our attention so you don't have to worry about
- 42:44Speaker 1: the water use problem anymore. It's not there. And then
- 42:48Speaker 1: there's the power issue, which I'll pivot back to what
- 42:50Speaker 1: I pointed out earlier. They've got that solved. We just
- 42:56Speaker 1: need to get out of the way. The power issue
- 42:59Speaker 1: has been solved. much to the chagrin of the socialist
- 43:02Speaker 1: communist leftists of the world who, again, their goal is
- 43:06Speaker 1: multiple shared misery across the entire spectrum of humanity. We
- 43:11Speaker 1: here in the United States, and we're blessed to have
- 43:13Speaker 1: been born in this country, you should count that blessing.
- 43:18Speaker 1: You can complain and bitch and moan and, oh, we're
- 43:20Speaker 1: so bad and evil. Do you know what it would
- 43:22Speaker 1: be like to, well, I'd consider growing up in Somalia,
- 43:24Speaker 1: for example.
- 43:26Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 43:27Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 43:28Speaker 1: Pick another country in the world. France, it's falling apart
- 43:31Speaker 1: at the seams, right? Nobody lives at the standard we do.
- 43:35Speaker 1: That's the problem with us, say the socialist, DSA folks,
- 43:39Speaker 1: communist Marxists. Some people have it better than others in
- 43:43Speaker 1: a free society. It's the natural reality of life. Some
- 43:47Speaker 1: people are smarter than others. Even smart people might not
- 43:50Speaker 1: choose to tap into their own intellect. And they can
- 43:53Speaker 1: choose to do so and not tap into that intellect and, well,
- 43:56Speaker 1: live at whatever standard they want to live in based
- 43:58Speaker 1: upon how they are, well, performing, how much effort they
- 44:01Speaker 1: put into life. That's the reality. And thankfully, the ones
- 44:09Speaker 1: that do make all that money, the ones that provide
- 44:11Speaker 1: the jobs and benefits for all of us, in fact,
- 44:14Speaker 1: better all of our lives and conditions. It's the beauty
- 44:17Speaker 1: of capitalism. They just want to fight it. So here
- 44:20Speaker 1: you go. You're now into the doom loop of AI,
- 44:23Speaker 1: pivoting over from alarmism of the climate, and I'm glad
- 44:26Speaker 1: that one's moved past. Let's be realistic about AI. What
- 44:31Speaker 1: is it going to do to us and our jobs?
- 44:33Speaker 1: There's nothing we can do to stop it. If we're
- 44:35Speaker 1: not doing it, China's going to do it. We'll just
- 44:37Speaker 1: use China's version of AI if we don't do it.
- 44:39Speaker 1: I would rather be in control of it. To the
- 44:41Speaker 1: extent there's any profit or benefits that are near to
- 44:43Speaker 1: any given neighborhood, like tax revenue, cheaper electricity, that would
- 44:49Speaker 1: be a great benefit. You can't make AI go away, though.
- 44:54Speaker 1: 618-55-KRC-D Talk Station. You can get your house painted from Q...
- 44:58Speaker 1: 622-55-KRC-D Talk Station. 513-749-5500-800-823-TALK. Yeah, I put an exclamation point
- 45:09Speaker 1: on the nuclear power that is coming our way, apparently.
- 45:13Speaker 1: Eliminating anti-growth regulations, which Trump has been doing now and
- 45:17Speaker 1: has opened up the idea that we can actually get
- 45:19Speaker 1: ourselves some nuclear power. And that's what he's been doing.
- 45:24Speaker 1: Look at this. So we have AI data centers that
- 45:27Speaker 1: need additional electricity. People are complaining about it. They don't
- 45:30Speaker 1: want their electricity bills to go up. So the AI
- 45:32Speaker 1: centers have been told they need to bring their own power.
- 45:34Speaker 1: That's what Vivek Ramaswamy is running on. And we'll get
- 45:37Speaker 1: the benefit of the extra power. Well, that apparently the
- 45:40Speaker 1: reason the deregulation of this industry, to a certain extent,
- 45:45Speaker 1: Google entered into a 20-year nuclear power agreement along with
- 45:50Speaker 1: Constellation Energy, boosting output at 11 existing reactors across Illinois,
- 45:55Speaker 1: New Jersey, and Pennsylvania.
- 45:56Speaker 4: $ 4.
- 45:56Speaker 1: 3 billion power purchase agreement. Constellation calling it the largest
- 46:04Speaker 1: ever upgrade project in the nuclear industry. Two companies struck
- 46:10Speaker 1: a 15-year supply deal for another 2,700 megawatts of electricity
- 46:16Speaker 1: in the 13-state PJM power market. Constellation previously announced a
- 46:21Speaker 1: $ 1. 6 billion deal with Microsoft to restart a reactor at
- 46:25Speaker 1: Three Mile Island. The reactor has been dormant since 2019. Now,
- 46:30Speaker 1: I know these aren't SMRs, but hey, if that reactor
- 46:32Speaker 1: works and it's safe, why not go ahead and tap
- 46:34Speaker 1: into it? Why would you shut it off if it
- 46:36Speaker 1: worked in the first place, he asked rhetorically. So Microsoft,
- 46:42Speaker 1: of course, needs the power for its AI and machine
- 46:45Speaker 1: learning applications and data centers. Trump promised regulatory reform and
- 46:50Speaker 1: other support for the nuclear industry, obviously because of this
- 46:53Speaker 1: rapidly growing need and the increased demand we have for electricity,
- 46:58Speaker 1: generally speaking. Department of Energy Office of Energy Dominant Financing
- 47:04Speaker 1: closed a loan of $ 1. 9 billion with a company called
- 47:08Speaker 1: NextEra Energy to finance and restart a 615-megawatt nuclear power
- 47:13Speaker 1: plant at Duane Arnold Energy Center in Iowa. Last week,
- 47:17Speaker 1: the Nuclear Regulatory Commission authorized a company called Holtec to
- 47:21Speaker 1: start early construction work for two planned small modular reactors
- 47:26Speaker 1: in Michigan. Combined power, 680 megawatts of electricity. New scale power,
- 47:33Speaker 1: in partnership with something called EntraOne Energy, is negotiating with
- 47:37Speaker 1: the TVA, Tennessee Valley Authority, toward what could become the
- 47:42Speaker 1: largest nuclear power development program in U.S. history. Proposed project
- 47:47Speaker 1: could range from 6 to 8 gigawatts of generating capacity from,
- 47:52Speaker 1: there they are, small modular reactors. So you get out
- 47:58Speaker 1: of the way. You take the regulatory challenges away. And
- 48:01Speaker 1: this is not to say these SMRs are going to
- 48:03Speaker 1: be inherently dangerous because the government isn't micromanaging their development.
- 48:06Speaker 1: Private sector is always delivered. And this is really, really
- 48:14Speaker 1: pissing off the socialist of the world, and the Marxist
- 48:18Speaker 1: of the world. They're creeping out of the woodwork. Climate
- 48:23Speaker 1: change didn't work. We need to do something else about
- 48:26Speaker 1: this pesky advancement, this pesky, well, high standard of living
- 48:31Speaker 1: that we get with an abundance of electricity. 626 at 55KRC,
- 48:35Speaker 1: the talk station. Feel free to give me a call. Otherwise,
- 48:37Speaker 1: I'm going to die. Talk station. 630 at 55KRC, the
- 48:44Speaker 1: talk station.
- 48:46Speaker 12: 55KRC. iHeart. com to get your iHeartMedia app so you can listen
- 48:50Speaker 12: to wherever you happen to be. Love hearing from folks
- 48:53Speaker 12: that are driving out and about saying, hey, listening to
- 48:55Speaker 12: you from this state or I'm listening to you from
- 48:56Speaker 12: this country.
- 48:57Speaker 1: Get a big kick out of that. And good morning
- 48:58Speaker 1: to everybody out there. And thanks for tuning into the
- 49:00Speaker 1: morning show. Do have local stories here. If you'd like
- 49:03Speaker 1: to give me a call, you can feel free to
- 49:04Speaker 1: do so. 513-749-5500, 800-823-TALK as we celebrate Joe Strecker's birthday.
- 49:10Speaker 1: Man hospitalized. This is the story I woke up to
- 49:12Speaker 1: because I got a text from Christopher Smithman. Shooting in
- 49:16Speaker 1: Avondale happened yesterday. 300 block of Rockdale last evening or night.
- 49:21Speaker 1: One person taken to the hospital after being shot in
- 49:23Speaker 1: the stomach. Non-life-threatening injuries, according to the reporting from Fox 19.
- 49:27Speaker 1: No word on suspects or what led up to the shooting. Then,
- 49:31Speaker 1: of course, she had the shooting over on off Gurley,
- 49:34Speaker 1: which led to the shutdown of the viaduct. Princeton City
- 49:38Speaker 1: school bus drivers asked the school board last night to
- 49:41Speaker 1: support them while they negotiate with first student, their employer,
- 49:46Speaker 1: their strike. Now I believe today is the ninth day.
- 49:50Speaker 1: It is today. Drivers have been on strike nine days
- 49:54Speaker 1: without transportation provided to more than 5,000 students. And they
- 49:58Speaker 1: don't get paid during the nine days they've been on strike.
- 50:00Speaker 1: Board went into executive session after public comment. Three hours
- 50:05Speaker 1: before the drivers spoke to the reporters that reported on this, again,
- 50:08Speaker 1: Brooklyn Andres at Fox 19, there's credit. Lead negotiator and
- 50:14Speaker 1: staff representative Darrell Hall said the district is not a
- 50:17Speaker 1: direct party to the negotiations, the contract disputes, but drivers
- 50:20Speaker 1: wanted to appear at the board meeting to ask the
- 50:22Speaker 1: board to fight for them. Darrell Hall said, not John Oates,
- 50:29Speaker 1: just Darrell Hall. A lot of these folks were Princeton employees.
- 50:31Speaker 1: A lot of them are parents, and so we felt
- 50:33Speaker 1: the need to show up here at the board meeting
- 50:35Speaker 1: so that these board members could see the bus drivers' faces.
- 50:41Speaker 1: Let's see here. Districts responsible for the 5,200 students relying
- 50:45Speaker 1: on the bus service every single day. The district said
- 50:47Speaker 1: it had plans to remain open and minimize disruption. The
- 50:49Speaker 1: district offering remote learning options, and they say they won't
- 50:53Speaker 1: penalize students who can't attend because of transportation issues. So,
- 50:57Speaker 1: It was COVID before and Amy Acton locking your kids
- 51:00Speaker 1: out of school and depriving them of education. This time
- 51:02Speaker 1: it's the school bus driver's strike. At least I can
- 51:05Speaker 1: summarize it along that way. You can feel free to
- 51:08Speaker 1: disagree if you care to. Motorcycle crash. Please wear a bucket.
- 51:12Speaker 1: 30-year-old man died after motorcycle crash. This one in Hamilton
- 51:17Speaker 1: on Friday night. Last, Butler County Coroner's report said Zachary
- 51:20Speaker 1: Newman died of injury sustained in a wreck near the
- 51:23Speaker 1: intersection of South Erie Boulevard and Maple. Officers got to
- 51:27Speaker 1: the crash about 9.30 p.m. Newman died hours later. Hamilton
- 51:31Speaker 1: police say the one vehicle carrying two people was involved.
- 51:34Speaker 1: Both roads closed for several hours after the crash. The
- 51:36Speaker 1: investigation is ongoing, so if you have any information about
- 51:39Speaker 1: that one, Traffic Sergeant Anthony Keep would love to hear
- 51:42Speaker 1: from you.
- 51:42Speaker 2: 513-868-5811.
- 51:43Speaker 1: Hey, Joe, affordable housing is coming to Cincinnati, maybe. Can
- 51:56Speaker 1: somebody define affordable housing? Cincinnati's Atlas Building, they say, could receive,
- 52:04Speaker 1: maybe not, could $ 2. 9 million in city funding in support
- 52:08Speaker 1: of its conversion into 67 rental apartments in commercial space.
- 52:14Speaker 1: Described by the Cincinnati Exchange's Nina Olivero as a $ 22. 8
- 52:18Speaker 1: million project led by Urban Sites, that's the entity, has
- 52:22Speaker 1: also secured $ 5 million in Ohio historic rehabilitation tax credits.
- 52:27Speaker 1: They say half, roughly, of the planned apartments will be
- 52:30Speaker 1: designated as affordable housing for qualifying households. Funding proposal received
- 52:36Speaker 1: committee approval in October of this year, the 12th, but
- 52:39Speaker 1: its final city council status needs to be confirmed. Proposal
- 52:44Speaker 1: would allocate money from the downtown over the Rhine East
- 52:47Speaker 1: Tax Increment Financing Fund. We've got one of those apparently.
- 52:51Speaker 1: to support the project, which is located at 530 Walnut Street.
- 52:55Speaker 1: Affordable housing. Now, is it affordable because you get a
- 52:59Speaker 1: government subsidy to help cover the rent? Is it affordable
- 53:02Speaker 1: just because the average rent in the area is X
- 53:05Speaker 1: and this is somewhat less than X? I mean, doesn't
- 53:09Speaker 1: affordability need to be judged based upon the individual, their
- 53:12Speaker 1: current earnings and income status relative to others? I mean,
- 53:15Speaker 1: you know, we throw around the word affordable housing all
- 53:17Speaker 1: the time. I just am kind of hazy on the concept.
- 53:22Speaker 1: Feel free to give me a call if you think
- 53:23Speaker 1: you can answer that question. I'm so frustrated. I don't
- 53:25Speaker 1: understand if any of the polling is even remotely accurate,
- 53:31Speaker 1: how the Democrats could have anyone supporting their policies. The
- 53:54Speaker 1: math doesn't work out on the Medicaid or Medicare. It
- 53:59Speaker 1: would be more like Medicaid for all, but Medicare for all.
- 54:01Speaker 1: It just does not work out. And maybe people just
- 54:05Speaker 1: believe these policies because they're so damn ignorant to the
- 54:08Speaker 1: facts and the reality of what they're asking for, what
- 54:10Speaker 1: they're promising to deliver, that they will not be able
- 54:13Speaker 1: to deliver. It's just one of many issues that I
- 54:17Speaker 1: scratch my head over in just disbelief because logic and
- 54:19Speaker 1: reason does not support what they're offering. And then here's
- 54:22Speaker 1: the other component of it. Now, you take a city
- 54:24Speaker 1: like New York or a state like New York, the
- 54:26Speaker 1: sanctuary state, New York, of course, doubling down sanctuary city,
- 54:30Speaker 1: not honoring. Immigrations and custom enforcement detainers, detainers that are
- 54:35Speaker 1: there to hold somebody for up to just two days,
- 54:37Speaker 1: 48 hours. So that the ICE folks can come in
- 54:41Speaker 1: and take custody of criminals. This isn't an elderly woman
- 54:48Speaker 1: who's been here for 40 years. These are folks who've
- 54:51Speaker 1: recently come here, sometimes multitudes of times, crossing the border
- 54:54Speaker 1: illegally and have committed crimes. Democrats are the only people
- 54:59Speaker 1: standing up and actively defending them. What is the argument about, well,
- 55:06Speaker 1: keeping criminals here? What good does that do for us?
- 55:14Speaker 1: And what good does it do for them other than providing, yes,
- 55:17Speaker 1: support for their crazy ideas and concepts? This is all
- 55:21Speaker 1: I can come up with. That's why they're actively fighting
- 55:24Speaker 1: for illegal immigrants who are criminals to get them to
- 55:26Speaker 1: stay in our country and protesting out in the streets
- 55:29Speaker 1: over it.
- 55:30Speaker 9: Really?
- 55:32Speaker 1: You got time for that? Just reported Department of Homeland
- 55:39Speaker 1: Security said New York refused to honor six, actually more
- 55:43Speaker 1: than 16,000 Immigrations and custom enforcement detainers, between January of
- 55:52Speaker 1: 2025 and October of this year, 16,070 detainers were not
- 55:59Speaker 1: honored by New York, meaning they let out 16,070 criminals.
- 56:02Speaker 1: According to the reporting, these 16,070 detainees are responsible for
- 56:07Speaker 1: 52,503 criminal charges and convictions. 131 homicides in that mix.
- 56:18Speaker 1: 132 kidnappings in there. 1,017 sexual offense. 9,502 assaults. 4,324
- 56:28Speaker 1: drug offenses. 2,198 weapons offenses. Democrats hate weapons. Here's a
- 56:33Speaker 1: whole bunch of people who committed weapons offenses, and they're
- 56:35Speaker 1: trying to keep them in our country. Keep them in
- 56:38Speaker 1: our country. Them being illegally in our country, having violated
- 56:41Speaker 1: the immigration laws, which ICE is only trying to enforce.
- 56:43Speaker 1: 1,776 robberies, 1,631 burglaries, and 1,561 DUI offenses, and a
- 56:53Speaker 1: partridge in a blankened pear tree. These are the folks,
- 56:57Speaker 1: criminals they are, that the Democrats are fighting to keep here.
- 57:03Speaker 1: Pivoting over, Democrats are the ones that don't want a
- 57:05Speaker 1: photo ID requirement. Democrats are the ones that don't want
- 57:09Speaker 1: in federal elections to enforce United States law that only
- 57:12Speaker 1: allows U.S. citizens to vote in federal elections. Do you
- 57:16Speaker 1: see anything nefarious in all this, people? Homeland Security, Mark
- 57:26Speaker 1: Wayne Mullen. We enforce these laws with no help from
- 57:30Speaker 1: Mayor Momdami or Governor Hochul. The Trump administration committed to
- 57:34Speaker 1: protecting the American people in every city and every state,
- 57:37Speaker 1: and we won't let sanctuary politicians stand in our way. Now,
- 57:41Speaker 1: this is where the Democrats stick their head up and say,
- 57:43Speaker 1: we need to reform the immigration laws. Yes, ICE is
- 57:46Speaker 1: enforcing immigration laws, but those are the problem. What's the problem?
- 57:49Speaker 1: What's the problem with them? Anyone? So if you think
- 57:56Speaker 1: the Democrats are going to fix immigration laws, what do
- 57:58Speaker 1: you think is on their wish list? Of course, naturalizing
- 58:01Speaker 1: the 10-plus million of folks that came across our border
- 58:04Speaker 1: during the Biden administration. This seems to be quite obvious.
- 58:07Speaker 1: They want... And that's not saying something that people haven't
- 58:11Speaker 1: said for a long, long time, even going back to
- 58:13Speaker 1: prior administrations. But they're out loud, without saying it out loud,
- 58:17Speaker 1: we're doing this because we want more Democrat voters. Apparently
- 58:20Speaker 1: there aren't enough around to support their party policies. But
- 58:24Speaker 1: all those folks from the four corners of the world
- 58:26Speaker 1: that came here that are not eligible to vote might
- 58:28Speaker 1: cotton to socialism. being on presumably, in not all cases,
- 58:34Speaker 1: the lower rungs of society, many of the illegal immigrants
- 58:37Speaker 1: here are receiving some form of social welfare. So they're
- 58:41Speaker 1: not exactly big capitalists living large folks that are paying
- 58:45Speaker 1: into the taxation system. If you have an impoverished group
- 58:48Speaker 1: of people who are living in our country illegally and
- 58:50Speaker 1: thus under cover of darkness and afraid to stick their
- 58:53Speaker 1: head out, do you think they'd be more likely to
- 58:55Speaker 1: vote Republican, who are tough on immigration laws, or Democrats,
- 58:59Speaker 1: who want to make them citizens? Right. In spite of
- 59:05Speaker 1: the 2024 election where a lot of Hispanic voters came
- 59:08Speaker 1: over the trump side of the equation that's that support
- 59:11Speaker 1: apparently has been eroded a little bit but the legally
- 59:14Speaker 1: here hispanic community isn't real thrilled with the vast with
- 59:19Speaker 1: the unrestrained unchecked migrants flowing across the border anyway you
- 59:26Speaker 1: can see right through this And if you're a leaning Democrat,
- 59:30Speaker 1: is it evil orange man or is it because you
- 59:32Speaker 1: really think these policies are a good idea? 645, 55
- 59:37Speaker 1: KRC talk station is screaming out loud to an empty
- 59:41Speaker 1: KRC talk station. 650, 55 KRC talk station. Well, good morning, Mr. Pappas,
- 59:49Speaker 1: who has concluded that this is all about Trump, evil
- 59:53Speaker 1: orange man. So don't pay attention to the issues. Don't
- 59:56Speaker 1: pay attention to the economics. Don't pay attention to the, well,
- 59:58Speaker 1: the socialism reality that Democrats are pushing down everybody's collective
- 1:00:02Speaker 1: throats and the pain, misery, and loss of freedoms and
- 1:00:05Speaker 1: liberties that that brings about. Evil orange man bad, so
- 1:00:08Speaker 1: vote for Democrats. That's it? Is that where we are?
- 1:00:14Speaker 1: Are we that collectively dumb as a society? Let's see.
- 1:00:17Speaker 1: We've got two J's on. First J, good morning, J.
- 1:00:21Speaker 1: Welcome to the morning show.
- 1:00:22Speaker 8: Hey, Brian, this is Jay from Centerville. I've called it
- 1:00:25Speaker 8: just a handful of times. I'm an ex-Portlander, and I
- 1:00:30Speaker 8: experienced the tidal wave of illegal immigration into Oregon. It
- 1:00:35Speaker 8: came before it came to the rest of the country.
- 1:00:37Speaker 8: The one thing that people don't think about when they
- 1:00:39Speaker 8: have their bleeding heart position on illegal immigration is that
- 1:00:44Speaker 8: for every illegal alien working in the country, there's a
- 1:00:48Speaker 8: stolen Social Security number. And if you're the owner of
- 1:00:52Speaker 8: that social security number, your financial life is in terrible shape.
- 1:00:58Speaker 8: They file taxes in your name. You have to justify
- 1:01:01Speaker 8: the additional income that you didn't actually earn with the
- 1:01:05Speaker 8: IRS and with the state. They take out credit cards
- 1:01:08Speaker 8: in your name. They do all sorts of nefarious things.
- 1:01:11Speaker 8: So there's no innocence around these people. They are guided
- 1:01:15Speaker 8: and taught on how to cheat the system. As an example,
- 1:01:18Speaker 8: when they get here, They'll claim that they're unmarried, but
- 1:01:23Speaker 8: they have nine kids, so they have virtually no taxes
- 1:01:25Speaker 8: taken out under your Social Security number. Their wife will
- 1:01:29Speaker 8: go and file as being unmarried with nine kids and
- 1:01:33Speaker 8: get all the welfare benefits that are available, and they
- 1:01:36Speaker 8: live like somebody that makes $ 150, 000 a year with no
- 1:01:39Speaker 8: tax implications.
- 1:01:41Speaker 1: And they spend it locally, which boosts local economies, even
- 1:01:44Speaker 1: though it's a welfare-based economy.
- 1:01:47Speaker 9: Exactly.
- 1:01:48Speaker 8: So it's theft across the board. They're not higher power
- 1:01:52Speaker 8: and better people than we are.
- 1:01:54Speaker 2: They're thieves.
- 1:01:56Speaker 1: They're thieves. Many of them. Here's Brian's one. I'm not
- 1:02:00Speaker 1: painting with that broad of a brush because somebody's screaming.
- 1:02:02Speaker 2: Is it?
- 1:02:02Speaker 5: No.
- 1:02:02Speaker 1: Many. And we know that because there's been illustration after
- 1:02:06Speaker 1: illustration of thievery within certain ethnic populations here in the
- 1:02:10Speaker 1: United States that came here illegally. The Somali community is
- 1:02:13Speaker 1: one of them, right? I mean, we learned about the
- 1:02:15Speaker 1: Haitian community as well. Many of them, not all, coordinated
- 1:02:19Speaker 1: criminal activity. That's an excellent point. And gee, I wonder
- 1:02:22Speaker 1: why you're an ex-Portlander. Jay, number two. Jay, welcome back
- 1:02:27Speaker 1: to the 55KRC Morning Show. Good to hear from you.
- 1:02:29Speaker 1: Happy Tuesday.
- 1:02:29Speaker 2: Hey, good morning, Jay. This is the other Jay.
- 1:02:33Speaker 13: Jay, USA, you may remember my last name I shared
- 1:02:35Speaker 13: with you in listening just a couple months ago.
- 1:02:39Speaker 14: Hey, I think that the reason that the Democrats are
- 1:02:43Speaker 14: getting so much traction has nothing to do with the
- 1:02:46Speaker 14: believability of their arguments. It goes back to the 60%
- 1:02:51Speaker 14: labor participation rate, which means 40% labor un-participation rate, meaning
- 1:02:57Speaker 14: able-bodied people who aren't taking care of anybody, no little kids,
- 1:03:01Speaker 14: no dependents at home.
- 1:03:03Speaker 9: We are now.
- 1:03:04Speaker 13: At 40% across the country and also in Ohio. I
- 1:03:09Speaker 13: hear Ohio politicians probably talking about the Ohio unemployment rate.
- 1:03:14Speaker 10: Is at the lowest in many decades. Take a look
- 1:03:18Speaker 10: at the labor participation rate. It is at the lowest
- 1:03:22Speaker 10: in many decades. We're just exchanging unemployment for labor participation.
- 1:03:26Speaker 10: So if four out of ten people are sitting on
- 1:03:29Speaker 10: their ass deciding not to work and things are.
- 1:03:32Speaker 9: Fine, what do we think they're going to vote for?
- 1:03:34Speaker 14: The disturbing thing is it seems like Republicans said, hey, well,
- 1:03:38Speaker 14: what the hell?
- 1:03:39Speaker 10: Why don't we play Santa Claus and we'll start handing
- 1:03:41Speaker 10: out free money for people to vote for us?
- 1:03:43Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 1:03:44Speaker 9: Or do different things.
- 1:03:45Speaker 1: It's a sin regardless of where that sin comes from.
- 1:03:47Speaker 1: But you're right. People react to free stuff and things. And,
- 1:03:50Speaker 1: of course, the welfare state is what it is, and
- 1:03:52Speaker 1: there's not a single soul who is collecting that type
- 1:03:55Speaker 1: of public benefit that is going to vote for a
- 1:03:57Speaker 1: Republican who they know are trying to crack down on fraud, waste,
- 1:03:59Speaker 1: and abuse and require people who are able-bodied to at
- 1:04:03Speaker 1: least try to get a job. Crazy concept, isn't it, Jay?
- 1:04:10Speaker 1: Crazy concept. Thank you very much for your comments. I
- 1:04:12Speaker 1: do appreciate them. Don't go away, because after the top
- 1:04:15Speaker 1: of the hour news, Dr. J. Speaking of J, it's
- 1:04:17Speaker 1: going to be like three in a row. Dr. J,
- 1:04:18Speaker 1: but he's Dr. J. He's going to talk about the
- 1:04:20Speaker 1: Empower You seminars going on this week. We'll be hearing
- 1:04:23Speaker 1: from Tom Zawistowski from wethepeopleconvention.org. We'll talk about Marco Rubio's
- 1:04:27Speaker 1: Greece speech, or at least Tom will provide his thoughts
- 1:04:30Speaker 1: and comments on that, plus reminding you to vote. 706,
- 1:04:35Speaker 1: a 55-karat CD talk station. Happy Tuesday. Of course, Tom
- 1:04:39Speaker 1: Zawistowski from wethepeopleconvention.org is going to join us at the
- 1:04:42Speaker 1: bottom of the hour. If you zip forward one hour,
- 1:04:44Speaker 1: we will get the inside scoop today from Breitbart News,
- 1:04:48Speaker 1: specifically Breitbart News political editor Bradley Jay, who is the
- 1:04:51Speaker 1: subject matter and speaker at tonight's Empower You seminar. And
- 1:04:55Speaker 1: we're going to go over the Empower You seminars coming
- 1:04:57Speaker 1: up with Dr. Jay Risover, who's joined the show at
- 1:05:00Speaker 1: this moment in time to talk about that. Welcome back, Jay.
- 1:05:02Speaker 1: It's always great talking with you.
- 1:05:04Speaker 11: My pleasure to be with you. I understand Jay is
- 1:05:07Speaker 11: the theme of the day on your show this week.
- 1:05:09Speaker 9: Apparently.
- 1:05:10Speaker 1: It's like... Two Js on the phones, and then we
- 1:05:14Speaker 1: launched the Empower You seminar discussion with another J, Bradley J.
- 1:05:18Speaker 1: That's great.
- 1:05:18Speaker 2: Bradley J, yes, indeed.
- 1:05:21Speaker 11: He's a busy man. You'll hear from him later on
- 1:05:23Speaker 11: your show, but we're going to hear from him tonight.
- 1:05:26Speaker 11: He will have an hour to explain to us what's happening,
- 1:05:30Speaker 11: his assessment from the Breitbart picture of the midterm elections.
- 1:05:35Speaker 11: He'll have all the latest up-to-date polls and information and assessments. And,
- 1:05:41Speaker 11: you know, Brian, I just got to tell you, there
- 1:05:43Speaker 11: is a hope, you know, there's a chance here that
- 1:05:46Speaker 11: Republicans will actually win many of these elections.
- 1:05:50Speaker 1: Well, I did get a little glimmer of hope the
- 1:05:52Speaker 1: other day. We had a door knocker show up at
- 1:05:53Speaker 1: our front door and I know the guy, but he said, hey,
- 1:05:56Speaker 1: you're on my list and here's the materials. And he
- 1:05:58Speaker 1: had the pink slip and stuff for Republican candidates.
- 1:06:00Speaker 2: I said, you know.
- 1:06:02Speaker 1: You know, we're voting for Republicans in this house. I said,
- 1:06:05Speaker 1: my wife, myself, I think I can pretty much safely
- 1:06:08Speaker 1: bet my son and my daughter and her husband will.
- 1:06:10Speaker 1: So there's a group right there. It's five. And he
- 1:06:14Speaker 1: was smiling. He goes, yeah, I just wanted to know.
- 1:06:16Speaker 1: He said, but I want you to know. He said,
- 1:06:17Speaker 1: I've been going from door to door to door in
- 1:06:20Speaker 1: a whole bunch of different neighborhoods. And he said, I
- 1:06:24Speaker 1: am so happy that so many people are really strongly
- 1:06:28Speaker 1: voting Republican. He said it's a lot more out there
- 1:06:31Speaker 1: than anybody's been led to believe. So don't believe all
- 1:06:33Speaker 1: the gloom and doom scenarios. It's a lot better out
- 1:06:36Speaker 1: there when you're talking to people face to face. So
- 1:06:38Speaker 1: I'm hoping he's right. That's all I can say.
- 1:06:43Speaker 11: Well, today we're going to hear from Bradley J. Hopefully
- 1:06:45Speaker 11: tell us more information about that. Hey, when you get
- 1:06:48Speaker 11: a chance to talk to him, you might ask him, apparently, uh,
- 1:06:51Speaker 11: He's been in Washington on Capitol Hill, knows everything, how
- 1:06:54Speaker 11: it works. He's from Alabama, so he used to work
- 1:06:56Speaker 11: with Senator Jeff Sessions. And back then, he reported to
- 1:07:00Speaker 11: another Sessions staffer, Stephen Miller, who I guess we all
- 1:07:04Speaker 11: know in the Trump administration. So there might be some
- 1:07:07Speaker 11: interesting background information to hear from him. But he's going
- 1:07:09Speaker 11: to tell us about this midterm election cycle. That'll be tonight.
- 1:07:12Speaker 11: 7 o'clock, an Empower You virtual class. So all of
- 1:07:17Speaker 11: you listening, you come to empoweryouamerica.org and check on in.
- 1:07:23Speaker 11: And I'll tell you, looking at the website, I'm really
- 1:07:25Speaker 11: pretty happy with it. It's cleaned up a lot. It's
- 1:07:28Speaker 11: amazing how well it works. When you go to our website,
- 1:07:31Speaker 11: you just see the last two classes, which are great.
- 1:07:33Speaker 11: I told you about them last week. And then the
- 1:07:35Speaker 11: next two up are our classes tonight and October 15th.
- 1:07:40Speaker 7: Easy to go.
- 1:07:41Speaker 11: You can get information.
- 1:07:42Speaker 2: You can register.
- 1:07:43Speaker 11: And, of course, there's that little donate button that once
- 1:07:45Speaker 11: you get into a class, at the end of it,
- 1:07:47Speaker 11: they will ask you to do that. Feel free, friends,
- 1:07:49Speaker 11: to consider doing it to us. We are a nonprofit.
- 1:07:52Speaker 11: We're completely on donations.
- 1:07:54Speaker 1: Indeed, and we wouldn't want these seminars to end. There's
- 1:07:57Speaker 1: just great education opportunities across the board, too, like the
- 1:08:00Speaker 1: one on Thursday. I mean, I don't know where we
- 1:08:03Speaker 1: pivot over from Breitbart's Bradley Jay talking about the midterm
- 1:08:06Speaker 1: elections to Krav Maga.
- 1:08:10Speaker 11: Yeah, that's right.
- 1:08:10Speaker 9: It's self-defense.
- 1:08:12Speaker 11: So we talked about it briefly before. That, of course,
- 1:08:15Speaker 11: is the Israeli-produced self-defense martial art, Krav Maga. And Erin Bennett-Connis,
- 1:08:21Speaker 11: who is our expert, is or was an IDF soldier.
- 1:08:26Speaker 11: He worked with the Galani Heights. That's where he was stationed,
- 1:08:32Speaker 11: excuse me. And he started this gym many years ago.
- 1:08:36Speaker 11: It's a lovely facility in Blue Ash. However, this class
- 1:08:39Speaker 11: is here in our Scarlet Oaks studios. So on Thursday,
- 1:08:43Speaker 11: come to 300 Scarlet Oaks Drive on the Scarlet Oaks campus.
- 1:08:49Speaker 11: And we will be happy to be educated in a
- 1:08:52Speaker 11: little bit about Krav Maga, where it came from, what
- 1:08:55Speaker 11: it is, and some of the basic moves And he
- 1:08:59Speaker 11: has promised to give us a move or two for
- 1:09:01Speaker 11: all of us, no.
- 1:09:02Speaker 7: Matter our age.
- 1:09:04Speaker 11: He believes in empowering people in their personal defense. And
- 1:09:08Speaker 11: here you are to empower you, getting empowered.
- 1:09:10Speaker 1: Well, and the great thing is, you know, for someone
- 1:09:12Speaker 1: who might be reluctant, well, I don't have the physical
- 1:09:14Speaker 1: strength or the physical stamina to even think about engaging
- 1:09:17Speaker 1: in Krav Maga and these moves you're talking about. But
- 1:09:19Speaker 1: according to the information, it's going to also include situational awareness,
- 1:09:23Speaker 1: recognizing potential threats, de-escalation, and understanding how real-world confrontations can develop.
- 1:09:28Speaker 1: So practical information that transcends beating the crap out of
- 1:09:32Speaker 1: the guy that's trying to get you.
- 1:09:34Speaker 9: Righto.
- 1:09:36Speaker 11: This should be a great lecture, fascinating thing to see,
- 1:09:39Speaker 11: and I welcome you all to come. But I'm shortchanging
- 1:09:43Speaker 11: our Tick20 subject and author on Thursday. Our own friend
- 1:09:49Speaker 11: Jack Atherton will be speaking at great topic. Why November's
- 1:09:54Speaker 11: issues are identical to those 250 years ago. We know
- 1:09:59Speaker 11: Jack loves to give us a little bit of a
- 1:10:00Speaker 11: historical trend on active, active politics in today's events. And
- 1:10:06Speaker 11: this will be just one more example.
- 1:10:08Speaker 1: Guy's got a real flair for that. I'm telling you,
- 1:10:10Speaker 1: you know, of all the guests I have on the
- 1:10:12Speaker 1: program regularly, I get more comments about Jack when I'm
- 1:10:15Speaker 1: walking around and talking to people or even with email
- 1:10:17Speaker 1: and instant messages or texts. It's like, man, Jack just
- 1:10:21Speaker 1: does a great job. I know. I know. Glad we
- 1:10:24Speaker 1: got him on.
- 1:10:26Speaker 11: I'm so glad you have him, too. You know, I
- 1:10:28Speaker 11: didn't realize this. I was looking at his bio, and
- 1:10:31Speaker 11: he studied history at Yale and law and journalism at Columbia.
- 1:10:34Speaker 11: But he practiced law in Manhattan. He's a recovering attorney, too.
- 1:10:37Speaker 2: I didn't know that. He is.
- 1:10:40Speaker 1: And he credits his wife for helping him get along
- 1:10:42Speaker 1: in his pursuit of journalism. Of course, he had a
- 1:10:44Speaker 1: successful journalism career. And, of course, he's an author on
- 1:10:47Speaker 1: top of everything else.
- 1:10:50Speaker 11: He has too many hats. Only one head.
- 1:10:53Speaker 1: It's a big head. He's got a lot of brain
- 1:10:55Speaker 1: that's stuffed in there, too.
- 1:10:57Speaker 9: Yes, he does.
- 1:10:58Speaker 7: Yes, he does.
- 1:11:00Speaker 11: Always well thought out, very well organized. I love his
- 1:11:04Speaker 11: podcast with the stuff he does on your show, and
- 1:11:08Speaker 11: I love reading his stuff. And here we will have him,
- 1:11:10Speaker 11: why November's issues are identical to those 250 years ago.
- 1:11:13Speaker 11: I can't wait to hear that explanation.
- 1:11:15Speaker 2: Indeed.
- 1:11:16Speaker 1: And again, you can go to the PowerUAmerica.org website. If
- 1:11:18Speaker 1: you can't make the seminar, you can show up later
- 1:11:20Speaker 1: and rerun it on the website directly. Got some good
- 1:11:23Speaker 1: ones coming up, too. I'm looking forward to the economics
- 1:11:27Speaker 1: polls trolls with Breitbart. Alex Marlowe next week. We've got
- 1:11:30Speaker 1: back-to-back Tuesdays with Breitbart. So maybe he can break down
- 1:11:33Speaker 1: why these polls have been so wrong.
- 1:11:37Speaker 11: Well, you have heard, again, another note of good news.
- 1:11:41Speaker 11: The polling has been kind of crazy sometimes in this.
- 1:11:44Speaker 11: Do you remember there was this candidate, Wong, who was
- 1:11:47Speaker 11: purported by polls to be winning by 20 percent? And
- 1:11:51Speaker 11: she was one of those DSA candidates. And she lost
- 1:11:54Speaker 11: by 5% in her primary. The polls were 25% off.
- 1:12:00Speaker 11: So the fact that conservatives tend not to poll well,
- 1:12:03Speaker 11: tend not to want to talk to polls, is a
- 1:12:05Speaker 11: problem no one has ever been able to solve. So
- 1:12:08Speaker 11: we'll hear about that next week from Alex Marlowe. Lee
- 1:12:11Speaker 11: and Grant before they were titans on Thursday next week
- 1:12:14Speaker 11: with Rick Rosel. And that should be great. We have
- 1:12:17Speaker 11: a little more history coming up later in the month.
- 1:12:19Speaker 11: And don't forget, we're going to have all the people
- 1:12:21Speaker 11: coming to talk about the Trenton residents who are fighting
- 1:12:24Speaker 11: Amazon's AI data center. We're going to have hopefully both
- 1:12:27Speaker 11: sides of that issue here on Tuesday, October 27th, to
- 1:12:31Speaker 11: further educate us on that.
- 1:12:33Speaker 1: Well, I would love to ask each and every one
- 1:12:35Speaker 1: of us who's against the data center, if you could
- 1:12:37Speaker 1: deal with the noise and there wasn't any, if you
- 1:12:39Speaker 1: could deal with the energy and you actually would benefit
- 1:12:41Speaker 1: from the center being there because they're going to bring
- 1:12:43Speaker 1: their power with them and abundance of it, Uh, what
- 1:12:46Speaker 1: is the other one? The water, since water is no
- 1:12:47Speaker 1: longer an issue coming that they build them with closed
- 1:12:50Speaker 1: loop water systems. It's like your car gets, uh, the,
- 1:12:52Speaker 1: the car cooling system works. Are there any remaining issues
- 1:12:56Speaker 1: other than they're just big, like box stores or Amazon
- 1:12:59Speaker 1: processing facilities? I mean, I don't really see a difference
- 1:13:02Speaker 1: between them. If it's going to bring fat bank tax
- 1:13:04Speaker 1: revenue to your neighborhood and maybe solve your energy problems.
- 1:13:07Speaker 1: I don't know why you'd be against it since we
- 1:13:08Speaker 1: can't stop AI.
- 1:13:12Speaker 11: Supposedly the pollution that they don't generate that people are
- 1:13:14Speaker 11: afraid of.
- 1:13:15Speaker 1: The pollution they don't generate?
- 1:13:16Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 1:13:16Speaker 11: Well, you know, they make noise pollution, which they don't
- 1:13:21Speaker 11: really do the way they insulate them now. And since
- 1:13:24Speaker 11: they have a closed-loop water system, they don't release anything
- 1:13:26Speaker 11: into the environment, but they used to. So, again, I
- 1:13:30Speaker 11: agree with you. I don't understand exactly the complaint.
- 1:13:32Speaker 1: Wave of the future, and you can't stop it from happening.
- 1:13:35Speaker 1: Just because it's not in your backyard, it's going to
- 1:13:36Speaker 1: be in somebody else's, and they may ultimately be happy
- 1:13:38Speaker 1: that it's there. Anyway, draw your own conclusions? Go to
- 1:13:41Speaker 1: the seminar and hear what the Trenton residents have to say.
- 1:13:43Speaker 1: That's October 27th. But definitely you want to be there
- 1:13:46Speaker 1: tonight online, empoweryouamerica.org, to hear what Bradley Jay has to
- 1:13:51Speaker 1: say about the midterms. And then grab my guy. Learn
- 1:13:54Speaker 1: some situational awareness and how to beat the crap out
- 1:13:56Speaker 1: of someone on Thursday. Jay Rissover, thank you so much
- 1:13:59Speaker 1: for joining the show and your work with empoweryouamerica.org. I
- 1:14:02Speaker 1: appreciate it.
- 1:14:04Speaker 9: Thank you.
- 1:14:04Speaker 2: And good talking to everyone.
- 1:14:06Speaker 1: Good talking to you, man. Take care of yourself.
- 1:14:07Speaker 11: 715.
- 1:14:08Speaker 1: See the talk station. That's 720-55-KRC-D Talk Station. Happy Tuesday. 513-749-5500, 800-823-TALK. Remember, 55KRC. iHeart. com.
- 1:14:22Speaker 1: Get your iHeartMedia app so you can listen wherever you
- 1:14:23Speaker 1: happen to be or just stream the audio directly from
- 1:14:25Speaker 1: the website, which you can do. I'm not going to
- 1:14:28Speaker 1: have an opportunity to get into it, maybe tomorrow even.
- 1:14:31Speaker 1: If you want to go to the Daily Caller website,
- 1:14:34Speaker 1: article by Philip Lashinsky, investigative reporter headline. Interesting. Exclusive. China
- 1:14:43Speaker 1: used military-linked kindergarten to cultivate ties with Mitch McConnell's wife
- 1:14:49Speaker 1: and in-laws. Interesting details in that one. What else is
- 1:14:56Speaker 1: going on in the world? Oh, I love this Babylon
- 1:14:58Speaker 1: Bee post. I just saw it as I was looking
- 1:14:59Speaker 1: down at my notes here. It's a picture of Trump,
- 1:15:04Speaker 1: and it's a picture of the al-Qaeda terrorist sympathizer, who
- 1:15:10Speaker 1: killed 13 people and wounded 32 others, this Hassan guy,
- 1:15:12Speaker 1: former Army major, who's being, well, Trump and Hegseth have
- 1:15:16Speaker 1: threatened to publicly execute him, which I am totally against.
- 1:15:20Speaker 1: Nidal Hassan will be executed, but I don't think it's
- 1:15:23Speaker 1: a great idea to publish, to show the photographs of
- 1:15:26Speaker 1: him being executed because it'll serve as a great poster
- 1:15:29Speaker 1: child for al-Qaeda recruitment. And there's just, I saw another
- 1:15:33Speaker 1: article separate from, of course, the Mitch McConnell article, Al-Qaeda
- 1:15:37Speaker 1: in the Arabian Peninsula, among other Al-Qaeda-affiliated organizations. So this
- 1:15:42Speaker 1: is a splitter group, a wing of the Al-Qaeda general group.
- 1:15:46Speaker 1: It's the ones in the Arabian Peninsula. They said they
- 1:15:49Speaker 1: would execute all the American hostages they have in retaliation
- 1:15:52Speaker 1: if we do execute them. They said the day America
- 1:15:57Speaker 1: makes this decision, it will have made a decision to
- 1:15:58Speaker 1: execute whoever among you falls captive to us And they've
- 1:16:03Speaker 1: also threatened to kill literally any American military personnel they
- 1:16:06Speaker 1: come across, blah, blah, blah, blah. You know, they're going
- 1:16:08Speaker 1: to kill Americans. So they've got a threat out there.
- 1:16:11Speaker 1: But let's not exacerbate the realities. You can execute them
- 1:16:14Speaker 1: if it's necessary, and we don't need to see it live.
- 1:16:17Speaker 1: We don't need to have the video loop running 24-7,
- 1:16:19Speaker 1: which it would. So let's just not go down that road.
- 1:16:23Speaker 2: Okay?
- 1:16:24Speaker 1: Just my idea. Maybe Jim's got a different idea. Jim,
- 1:16:26Speaker 1: thanks for calling this morning. Happy Tuesday.
- 1:16:29Speaker 2: Good morning, Brian.
- 1:16:30Speaker 7: Yes, I do have an idea or a better idea.
- 1:16:34Speaker 7: When Glenn Beck says executing with an all-female firing squad,
- 1:16:38Speaker 7: that takes away the 72 virgins.
- 1:16:40Speaker 1: No, that's a myth. That's not true. That's not their belief.
- 1:16:45Speaker 7: Well, they were upset about the females. The ISIS was
- 1:16:49Speaker 7: upset about the females attacking them.
- 1:16:50Speaker 1: They've got a problem with women, generally speaking. We all
- 1:16:53Speaker 1: know that. That's right. Lord Almighty. But I did– I
- 1:16:56Speaker 1: heard that yesterday. Someone had emailed me or texted me
- 1:16:59Speaker 1: or whatever. However I got it said, well, if they
- 1:17:01Speaker 1: actually hit him by women, he's not going to go
- 1:17:02Speaker 1: to their version of heaven. So I looked it up
- 1:17:04Speaker 1: right away, and now it's been widely refuted. It was
- 1:17:07Speaker 1: just a rumor that went around.
- 1:17:09Speaker 7: But the second thing is General Pershing back in the
- 1:17:15Speaker 7: early part of the 20th century, early 1900s, fighting the
- 1:17:20Speaker 7: Muslim terrorists in the Philippines, they just dipped their– bullets
- 1:17:26Speaker 7: in Pink's blood, and that kind of calmed him down
- 1:17:29Speaker 7: a bit, too.
- 1:17:30Speaker 1: Well, getting shot, whether the bullets dipped in blood or not,
- 1:17:33Speaker 1: tend to lead to death, most notably in a war theater.
- 1:17:38Speaker 1: Fair enough. Or you can just say you dipped them
- 1:17:39Speaker 1: in blood. Again, the blood's not what kills somebody. It's
- 1:17:42Speaker 1: the bullet itself. Anyhow, appreciate the call, my friend. Ilyan
- 1:17:48Speaker 1: Omar's house got raided the other day, and people were like, oh,
- 1:17:50Speaker 1: my God, this is political retaliation. Well, not really. According
- 1:17:54Speaker 1: to multiple people involved, the most likely scenario is immigration
- 1:17:58Speaker 1: police are looking into the rumor that Omar actually one
- 1:18:01Speaker 1: year older than she has claimed. And that matters based
- 1:18:06Speaker 1: upon the paperwork she filled out. Big picture here is
- 1:18:10Speaker 1: a federal judge in Washington, D.C. signed off on a
- 1:18:13Speaker 1: search warrant. That judge, I read it was a liberal
- 1:18:17Speaker 1: judge appointed by Obama. So you've got a liberal judge
- 1:18:19Speaker 1: sitting on a bench in Washington, D.C. that approved the
- 1:18:21Speaker 1: search warrant. Obviously, there was sufficient evidence to believe that
- 1:18:24Speaker 1: a crime was committed. That's where you get probable cause.
- 1:18:27Speaker 1: That's how you get a warrant on a, well, a
- 1:18:30Speaker 1: seated representative's home. That's a pretty damn high bar, folks.
- 1:18:36Speaker 1: There must be something there. So probable cause that a
- 1:18:39Speaker 1: crime was committed, presumably evidence of the crime at the
- 1:18:42Speaker 1: area to be searched, her home, and that's what they did.
- 1:18:45Speaker 1: And they took out a whole bunch of boxes from
- 1:18:47Speaker 1: her home.
- 1:18:49Speaker 5: So.
- 1:18:50Speaker 1: You know, my popcorn is definitely out for that one.
- 1:18:53Speaker 1: But it's the change of her birth date. So you've
- 1:18:57Speaker 1: got this weird 2019 citizen named A.J. Kern from Minnesota,
- 1:19:03Speaker 1: concerned citizen, publicly called attention to Omar actually being 18
- 1:19:08Speaker 1: or 19 years old in 2000. That's according to state
- 1:19:12Speaker 1: documents at the time. If Omar was actually older than 17,
- 1:19:16Speaker 1: which she claims she was, she would not have been
- 1:19:20Speaker 1: eligible for citizenship via the parent route. What happened was
- 1:19:23Speaker 1: she received automatic U.S. citizenship in 2000, which at age
- 1:19:27Speaker 1: 17 would have been okay, granted to minor age children
- 1:19:31Speaker 1: of naturalized parents. In the case of her father, who
- 1:19:35Speaker 1: fled to the U.S. in 1995, was from war-torn Somalia.
- 1:19:39Speaker 1: So he's granted access, and so she's 17, so she's
- 1:19:42Speaker 1: automatically entitled.
- 1:19:43Speaker 5: No.
- 1:19:44Speaker 1: If she was born in a different year, then she wouldn't.
- 1:19:47Speaker 1: That means that she lied on the initial application, and
- 1:19:51Speaker 1: any time thereafter that she used what people believe to
- 1:19:56Speaker 1: be fake birth date. Omar's official birth year on the
- 1:20:02Speaker 1: Minnesota Legislative Reference Library website, interestingly enough, was revised from
- 1:20:08Speaker 1: 1981 to 1982, according to this individual who called all
- 1:20:12Speaker 1: this out. Congressional records today report Omar was born in 82,
- 1:20:17Speaker 1: thus making her 17 at the time of naturalization. However,
- 1:20:21Speaker 1: if Omar continued using the fake birthday on things like
- 1:20:23Speaker 1: passport renewals or bank loan applications... Then there is no
- 1:20:29Speaker 1: statute of limitations, because otherwise, because this was made so
- 1:20:32Speaker 1: long ago, this claim, it would have been subject to
- 1:20:34Speaker 1: a 10-year statute of limitations, and there would be no
- 1:20:37Speaker 1: criminal investigation. Apparently, they believe a crime has been committed,
- 1:20:44Speaker 1: and they convinced a judge on the D.C. bench to
- 1:20:47Speaker 1: issue the search warrant. Keep that popcorn out. 746 right now,
- 1:20:50Speaker 1: 55 KRC Talk Station. Deep Talk Station. 7.30 on a Tuesday.
- 1:20:54Speaker 1: It's that time of the week. We get to talk
- 1:20:56Speaker 1: with Tom Zawistowski. You can find his webpage easily, and
- 1:20:59Speaker 1: I recommend that you do that and then hit that bookmark.
- 1:21:01Speaker 1: And there's a donate button, too. Help Tom Zawistowski at wethepeopleconvention.org.
- 1:21:05Speaker 1: Spread the message. As he points out in the podcast
- 1:21:08Speaker 1: this week, liberty requires citizens who are informed and engaged. Sadly,
- 1:21:12Speaker 1: we don't have enough informed, engaged people, Tom Zawistowski, if
- 1:21:15Speaker 1: they're going to vote against their best interest just because
- 1:21:17Speaker 1: they have disdain for evil orange man. This is the
- 1:21:20Speaker 1: only thing I can come up with, Tom.
- 1:21:22Speaker 14: Go ahead.
- 1:21:23Speaker 1: Say you're going to give Medicare to all. We don't
- 1:21:24Speaker 1: have the money for that. As much as our national
- 1:21:28Speaker 1: debt has accumulated, it would cost them 10 years for
- 1:21:30Speaker 1: Medicare for all. It's just not going to work. People
- 1:21:32Speaker 1: are deluded. Tom, welcome back. They are deluded.
- 1:21:37Speaker 4: And it's a plan and it's propaganda. And, you know,
- 1:21:41Speaker 4: they never explain, you know, they just say it, right?
- 1:21:44Speaker 4: The Democrats always say it's Medicare or Bernie Sanders. It's
- 1:21:47Speaker 4: Medicare for all. Never talks about how they're going to
- 1:21:50Speaker 4: fund it. Never talks about, how about this one, Brian?
- 1:21:52Speaker 4: We always talk about this with communism and same thing
- 1:21:54Speaker 4: with Medicare for all. Show me an example where it worked.
- 1:21:58Speaker 4: Go to England. Go to Canada. Go anywhere and show
- 1:22:02Speaker 4: how government medicine has been a good thing. It's horrible.
- 1:22:07Speaker 4: Matter of fact, in Canada, they're offering to just have
- 1:22:10Speaker 4: you die because they can't afford to take care of you.
- 1:22:13Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 1:22:14Speaker 4: These people are insane. But unfortunately, in our world today, Brian,
- 1:22:19Speaker 4: people don't dig deep enough. Maybe they don't even have
- 1:22:23Speaker 4: access to information that helps them see it in a
- 1:22:26Speaker 4: deeper context. And it really is a detriment to our
- 1:22:31Speaker 4: whole republic and to our, particularly our voting system, because
- 1:22:35Speaker 4: you're voting for things you don't even understand.
- 1:22:37Speaker 1: Isn't that the truth? And that's how the socialists come
- 1:22:40Speaker 1: communists get away with it because they sell a bill
- 1:22:42Speaker 1: of goods that sounds so lofty and noble and, oh,
- 1:22:46Speaker 1: my God, it's from each accordion's ability, each accordion's need,
- 1:22:49Speaker 1: so everybody gets to participate to the extent they can,
- 1:22:52Speaker 1: just ignoring human nature. That's the part that fails with
- 1:22:55Speaker 1: socialism and communism every single time. When you're finally told
- 1:22:59Speaker 1: that you're not going to be able to get more
- 1:23:01Speaker 1: because you work harder or you create something that's valuable
- 1:23:04Speaker 1: that people want, you don't do it anymore. Like so
- 1:23:08Speaker 1: many people, Jay called earlier, reminding us of the labor
- 1:23:12Speaker 1: participation rate. There are a whole lot of able-bodied adults
- 1:23:17Speaker 1: living in our country that are on the social welfare
- 1:23:19Speaker 1: safety net. Able-bodied, meaning if they could, they should. Are
- 1:23:24Speaker 1: they going to suddenly magically in a world of communism
- 1:23:27Speaker 1: or socialism start working, Tom, because they have ability to
- 1:23:31Speaker 1: offer into the societal nirvana they promise? I doubt it.
- 1:23:36Speaker 4: Yeah, well, go back to our founding. Go back to
- 1:23:38Speaker 4: the Plymouth Colony, right? What happened when the Pilgrims first
- 1:23:42Speaker 4: landed in the United States? And, you know, they had
- 1:23:45Speaker 4: a communist-type system. You know, everyone shares in whatever we make, and,
- 1:23:50Speaker 4: you know, everybody does their work, except some people didn't
- 1:23:53Speaker 4: do much work at all.
- 1:23:54Speaker 1: Like Bernie Sanders.
- 1:23:55Speaker 4: And they scarred, right?
- 1:23:57Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 1:23:57Speaker 4: And then what did they do? They said, well, we've
- 1:23:59Speaker 4: got to change that. So you get to keep whatever
- 1:24:02Speaker 4: you grow up. and they put some capitalism in there,
- 1:24:05Speaker 4: and they survived. Folks, it's history, and people understand history.
- 1:24:10Speaker 4: And so, Brian, that's why I posted on the We
- 1:24:13Speaker 4: the People convention website the speech by Marco Rubio in
- 1:24:18Speaker 4: front of the Acropolis in Athens, Greece. I have to admit,
- 1:24:22Speaker 4: I kind of, I heard about it. I didn't really
- 1:24:25Speaker 4: watch it. I kind of, you know, blew it off.
- 1:24:27Speaker 4: And then I don't know. Something just said, you got
- 1:24:30Speaker 4: to go back and look at this because I don't
- 1:24:33Speaker 4: know who's writing Marco Rubio's speeches, but they're amazing. And
- 1:24:38Speaker 4: he delivers this speech that is titled The Defense of
- 1:24:41Speaker 4: Western Civilization that every one of your viewers should watch.
- 1:24:44Speaker 1: Fantastic. And we'll dive into some of the details and
- 1:24:47Speaker 1: your observations on that. We're coming up in the next
- 1:24:48Speaker 1: segment because we're about out of time in this segment.
- 1:24:51Speaker 1: I thought I'd just also interject in addition to The
- 1:24:55Speaker 1: idea of going back to Medicare for all, which is
- 1:24:58Speaker 1: one of the leftist promises. They also want illegal immigrants
- 1:25:02Speaker 1: to sit at the table of Medicare for all as well.
- 1:25:06Speaker 1: No country in the world is doing that. And you
- 1:25:07Speaker 1: mentioned Canada. My understanding is if you just go to
- 1:25:09Speaker 1: Canada expecting to get on their their their health system,
- 1:25:13Speaker 1: you got to live there for like five years before
- 1:25:15Speaker 1: you're even eligible. which is the only way a crumbling
- 1:25:19Speaker 1: healthcare system like Canada has can sustain itself. If you
- 1:25:22Speaker 1: let every man, woman, and child who walks into Canada
- 1:25:24Speaker 1: hook up to it, as we weirdly do with everything
- 1:25:26Speaker 1: else related to the social welfare safety net, it's a
- 1:25:30Speaker 1: recipe for collapse.
- 1:25:32Speaker 4: Yeah, well, what did we learn from Obamacare, right? They
- 1:25:36Speaker 4: tried it. We learned it raised everyone's costs and lowered
- 1:25:40Speaker 4: the health care. It's that simple. It's right in front.
- 1:25:43Speaker 4: It's not like 100 years ago. It's 20 years ago,
- 1:25:47Speaker 4: and we're still paying for it. Enough already. What does
- 1:25:51Speaker 4: the government do well? Not much. So have them do
- 1:25:55Speaker 4: as little as they can, and you'll be a lot
- 1:25:57Speaker 4: better off.
- 1:25:58Speaker 1: More with Tom Z, and we'll talk about Marco Rubio's speech,
- 1:26:01Speaker 1: among other topics. with WeThePeopleConvention.org.
- 1:26:04Speaker 4: KRC, the talk station.
- 1:26:07Speaker 1: 740 at 55, KRC, the talk station. WeThePeopleConvention.org. Tom Zawistowski
- 1:26:14Speaker 1: on the program at this time every week. We have
- 1:26:16Speaker 1: a couple of segments with him, and the webpage is
- 1:26:18Speaker 1: worth going to. And, of course, you've got to listen
- 1:26:20Speaker 1: to Tom's podcast. Some of the details we're going to
- 1:26:22Speaker 1: talk about right now. What impressed you so much about
- 1:26:25Speaker 1: Marco Rubio's words, whether or not you can attribute it
- 1:26:27Speaker 1: to him or a speechwriter, Tom?
- 1:26:30Speaker 4: Well, it was the most... I don't know, in 27 minutes,
- 1:26:35Speaker 4: he takes you from, you know, the Greeks and their,
- 1:26:38Speaker 4: you know, discussions of democracy and, you know, the principles
- 1:26:42Speaker 4: that much of Western civilization is built on all the
- 1:26:46Speaker 4: way up to today and what it means to you, literally,
- 1:26:51Speaker 4: to you as a voter, to the people listening to this,
- 1:26:53Speaker 4: you know, this station right now. he puts in perspective
- 1:26:57Speaker 4: that this vote you're going to cast is a vote
- 1:27:01Speaker 4: to defend everything that mankind has built throughout history. It
- 1:27:07Speaker 4: is beautifully written. It's beautiful to watch. If you don't
- 1:27:10Speaker 4: want to watch it, I put the transcript there so
- 1:27:13Speaker 4: you can read it because it's a really good read.
- 1:27:16Speaker 4: It's at wethepeopleconvention.org under the video section. And so I
- 1:27:20Speaker 4: sent it out yesterday. And just to say to people,
- 1:27:24Speaker 4: this is why you're voting. You know, no one talks
- 1:27:27Speaker 4: about why you're voting. They tell you what to do,
- 1:27:29Speaker 4: who to vote for, all that stuff. But it's deeper
- 1:27:32Speaker 4: than that. This, you know, the principles that have built
- 1:27:37Speaker 4: our civilization, your way of life, all that you have
- 1:27:41Speaker 4: in your life that you value started all the way
- 1:27:45Speaker 4: back with the Greeks and the Romans and coming through history.
- 1:27:50Speaker 4: And as you and I've talked many times, They sure
- 1:27:52Speaker 4: aren't teaching our kids any history in school. So I
- 1:27:56Speaker 4: would guess that most of the people watching this Rubio
- 1:27:59Speaker 4: speech would get the best history lesson they've probably gotten
- 1:28:02Speaker 4: in their entire life.
- 1:28:05Speaker 1: Well, and the weird thing about it, and it's weird,
- 1:28:06Speaker 1: it's sort of a tactical decision that the left has made,
- 1:28:09Speaker 1: the socialists have made, that if it has connection to
- 1:28:14Speaker 1: our collective history, Judeo-Christian ethic perhaps, or perhaps going all
- 1:28:18Speaker 1: the way back to the Greek times, It's that evil
- 1:28:21Speaker 1: European white man stuff that we just can't have because, well,
- 1:28:26Speaker 1: I guess it started with evil white men or something, Tom.
- 1:28:29Speaker 1: It just really is anything Eurocentric, bad, right? Isn't that
- 1:28:34Speaker 1: really the fault they go to? Not particularly breaking down
- 1:28:36Speaker 1: why it's so damn bad when everything that... is good
- 1:28:40Speaker 1: in the world has pretty much flowed from it. I mean,
- 1:28:43Speaker 1: those who have not lived with the Judeo-Christian sort of
- 1:28:46Speaker 1: work ethic and morals and in representative democracies like we have,
- 1:28:50Speaker 1: the republic that we live in, they have miserable lives
- 1:28:54Speaker 1: by comparison. It's just, again, I don't understand why people
- 1:28:58Speaker 1: don't get it, Tom.
- 1:29:00Speaker 4: Well, see, this is why it's important for people to understand.
- 1:29:03Speaker 4: We are all part of something way bigger than us
- 1:29:06Speaker 4: and something way bigger than just the United States. It's
- 1:29:10Speaker 4: a civilizational conflict that's been going on for thousands of years.
- 1:29:15Speaker 4: And this November 3rd, the vote you're going to cast...
- 1:29:19Speaker 4: It's going to have a huge effect on the future
- 1:29:23Speaker 4: of history. Either we're going to push back the communists,
- 1:29:28Speaker 4: the Marxists, the Islamists, and defend Western civilization and continue
- 1:29:34Speaker 4: to move forward, or we're going to give it up
- 1:29:37Speaker 4: and you're going to lose it. And that's why I
- 1:29:40Speaker 4: put this speech out there for people to watch and
- 1:29:43Speaker 4: to read, because you need to understand why you're voting.
- 1:29:47Speaker 4: It's not just because, well, you know, my gas prices
- 1:29:50Speaker 4: are too high, so I'm going to vote for the
- 1:29:52Speaker 4: Democrats or I'm not going to vote. It's way bigger
- 1:29:55Speaker 4: than that. It's about your future. It's about the future
- 1:29:58Speaker 4: of civilization. And I just don't think most people have
- 1:30:02Speaker 4: any idea of that perspective. And that's why I put
- 1:30:05Speaker 4: that out there. And it's just another reason for everyone
- 1:30:09Speaker 4: to go and vote against every Democrat because they want
- 1:30:15Speaker 4: to end Western civilization. They literally do. I'm not making
- 1:30:19Speaker 4: it up.
- 1:30:19Speaker 1: No, you're not making it up. I mean, it's one
- 1:30:22Speaker 1: of the reasons for the unchecked, unregulated immigration flowing across
- 1:30:25Speaker 1: our border. I mean, we've talked about this many times.
- 1:30:27Speaker 1: It just becomes so evident. When you start seeing a
- 1:30:31Speaker 1: community of former Somalians, for example, set up shop and
- 1:30:35Speaker 1: we create their own individual society within our society. Now,
- 1:30:39Speaker 1: people typically live together because they're like-minded. I mean, I
- 1:30:43Speaker 1: grew up in a pretty much all-Catholic neighborhood, although I
- 1:30:45Speaker 1: wasn't Catholic. You're surrounded by Catholics on the West Side.
- 1:30:48Speaker 3: Well, why?
- 1:30:49Speaker 1: Because they're Catholic and they chose to live among each other, right?
- 1:30:52Speaker 1: That's fine. But they don't reject American values. They're steeped
- 1:30:57Speaker 1: in American culture.
- 1:30:59Speaker 4: Yeah. Yeah. No, it's insane. And I think it's good
- 1:31:05Speaker 4: that more people are calling it insane. I think that
- 1:31:08Speaker 4: it's good that more people are seeing it as insane, right?
- 1:31:11Speaker 4: You know, you talk about Ilhan Omar and, you know,
- 1:31:14Speaker 4: the raid on our house and stuff like that. You know,
- 1:31:17Speaker 4: I think that Trump is trying to make people see
- 1:31:21Speaker 4: what's really going on. I mean, this El-Said guy, he's
- 1:31:25Speaker 4: literally talking about wide open borders, more open than they
- 1:31:29Speaker 4: were under Biden. He's talking about every illegal immigrant has
- 1:31:33Speaker 4: a right to come in and take advantage of all
- 1:31:37Speaker 4: of our social welfare programs without explaining who the heck
- 1:31:41Speaker 4: pays for it. And I've talked to you about our
- 1:31:43Speaker 4: barn billboard program, and I'm happy to say we have
- 1:31:46Speaker 4: an electronic board up on 71 in Cincinnati. And it says,
- 1:31:51Speaker 4: free for them, taken from you. That is what socialism
- 1:31:55Speaker 4: and communism is. And that's what they want to bring
- 1:31:59Speaker 4: to you. They want you to pay for other people's
- 1:32:03Speaker 4: free stuff. Do you want to do that? I don't
- 1:32:06Speaker 4: want to do that. I don't think anybody listening to
- 1:32:09Speaker 4: the show wants to do that. Even if you're a Democrat,
- 1:32:11Speaker 4: you know, if you're a young person, so what do
- 1:32:13Speaker 4: you got to do? You got to vote. to stop
- 1:32:16Speaker 4: the madness, which this year means you got to vote
- 1:32:20Speaker 4: against every Democrat, which means vote for every Republican, and
- 1:32:25Speaker 4: then we'll take care of the Republicans later. The bottom
- 1:32:27Speaker 4: line is, this is a tipping point. If they take
- 1:32:32Speaker 4: the House, I've got a meme out that just says,
- 1:32:36Speaker 4: Why should you vote? Stop the impeachment of Trump. Because
- 1:32:39Speaker 4: I've got quotes from up by five different Democrats saying
- 1:32:43Speaker 4: we've got to impeach him in week one. In week one,
- 1:32:47Speaker 4: they're going to stop the entire MAGA agenda. Do you
- 1:32:50Speaker 4: want that?
- 1:32:51Speaker 14: Go ahead.
- 1:32:51Speaker 4: Stay home. Vote for the Democrats because that's going to happen.
- 1:32:54Speaker 1: Don't go away. We're going to have a couple more. F55KRC,
- 1:32:56Speaker 1: the talk station.
- 1:32:56Speaker 11: 751.
- 1:32:56Speaker 1: F55KRC, the talk station. We're going to hear the inside
- 1:33:05Speaker 1: scoop of Breitbart News political editor Bradley James, who will
- 1:33:08Speaker 1: be speaking on the upcoming midterms of the Empower Youth Summit.
- 1:33:12Speaker 1: We learned about that earlier from Dr. J. But Tom Zawistowski,
- 1:33:15Speaker 1: WeThePeopleConvention.org website. You know, you said maybe just people don't
- 1:33:20Speaker 1: have access to the information earlier. You know, they're not
- 1:33:23Speaker 1: paying attention. They don't have access to the information. The
- 1:33:26Speaker 1: stuff that you and I, you know, pay attention to
- 1:33:28Speaker 1: and realize that, yeah, you can say Medicare for all.
- 1:33:30Speaker 1: For example... And then if you look at the numbers,
- 1:33:33Speaker 1: you realize that there isn't enough money on the planet
- 1:33:35Speaker 1: to fund the program. That's a bit of an overstatement,
- 1:33:37Speaker 1: but it can't be afforded. We've got all kinds of obligations.
- 1:33:41Speaker 1: You can defund the military if you want. We can
- 1:33:43Speaker 1: go naked without an army to protect us, but there's
- 1:33:46Speaker 1: not enough money to run all these socialist programs. Just
- 1:33:49Speaker 1: the economy can't bear it. And if you do tax
- 1:33:52Speaker 1: people enough, Tom, and you know this, and everybody should,
- 1:33:54Speaker 1: if you tax people so much, like those evil billionaires,
- 1:33:57Speaker 1: we're going to take 70% of it. Fewer dollars end
- 1:34:00Speaker 1: up in the government coffers. Tax collection goes down. So
- 1:34:07Speaker 1: they're offering a solution, taxing the rich, to solve a
- 1:34:11Speaker 1: problem that they're going to create by offering public services
- 1:34:14Speaker 1: to literally every man, woman, and child who is here
- 1:34:16Speaker 1: and comes across our border with a theory that is
- 1:34:19Speaker 1: going to result in even less money than we're dealing
- 1:34:21Speaker 1: with right now. And we're spending, what, $ 2 trillion extra
- 1:34:24Speaker 1: a year on a regular basis because we can't afford
- 1:34:26Speaker 1: what we've got now, Tom.
- 1:34:29Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 1:34:29Speaker 4: Well, so again, we lived through the Reagan era, right?
- 1:34:33Speaker 4: What was it about Reagan? Reagan cut taxes and everyone said, oh,
- 1:34:37Speaker 4: what a disaster. You know, the taxes will, you know,
- 1:34:40Speaker 4: you'll have less money for the government. And they had more.
- 1:34:43Speaker 2: Okay.
- 1:34:44Speaker 4: And that's happened over Trump's doing the same thing. So
- 1:34:47Speaker 4: we've seen this. And again, it's so frustrating because take
- 1:34:52Speaker 4: an example, Fox News. What a waste of airspace. I mean,
- 1:34:58Speaker 4: here we have all these important things going on, and
- 1:35:00Speaker 4: they're spending hours yesterday talking about somebody, I don't even know,
- 1:35:05Speaker 4: an actress or somebody who bit somebody on an airplane
- 1:35:09Speaker 4: and tried to open a door. Okay. It's bread and circuses.
- 1:35:13Speaker 4: And it's so frustrating because, you know, like I said,
- 1:35:18Speaker 4: it's out there. If you look, if you go to we,
- 1:35:20Speaker 4: the people convention.org, you'll find news that you won't, you'll
- 1:35:23Speaker 4: see anywhere else. That's what we say about our podcast.
- 1:35:26Speaker 4: If you listen to this show, you will hear serious discussions.
- 1:35:30Speaker 4: The Breitbart segment every week. I, after I'm done, I
- 1:35:34Speaker 4: stay and listen to, because they tell you the truth
- 1:35:37Speaker 4: about what's going on.
- 1:35:39Speaker 5: We are.
- 1:35:40Speaker 4: We are in the information age, but we have less
- 1:35:43Speaker 4: information than ever because there's so much noise and propaganda.
- 1:35:48Speaker 1: Find the truth. I mean, you can be critical of
- 1:35:51Speaker 1: Fox because they do, well, report on clickbait. Fox knows
- 1:35:57Speaker 1: the recipe for high ratings, Tom. Yeah, they're going to
- 1:36:00Speaker 1: give you a conservative spin that the other networks aren't
- 1:36:02Speaker 1: going to give because they're the only ones out there
- 1:36:03Speaker 1: we can comfortably rely on, at least one of the few.
- 1:36:06Speaker 1: And they've got a reputation for bucking the system and
- 1:36:08Speaker 1: bucking the trend of mainstream media's liberal outlets. But they
- 1:36:11Speaker 1: also realize that people really, if they're paying attention to politics,
- 1:36:16Speaker 1: they're not really paying much attention. So if you can
- 1:36:19Speaker 1: get a Fox News viewer over there just because they're
- 1:36:21Speaker 1: reporting on clickbait and you can get them to hang
- 1:36:24Speaker 1: around a while, then they might learn something else. But
- 1:36:26Speaker 1: that takes me back to the access to information. The
- 1:36:29Speaker 1: information is there for all to read or absorb. You
- 1:36:35Speaker 1: have to find it. You have to take effort to
- 1:36:37Speaker 1: pay attention to politics and economics, Tom. People don't want
- 1:36:41Speaker 1: to do that. Finite number of hours in the day.
- 1:36:44Speaker 1: You're working all day long. You want to spend time
- 1:36:46Speaker 1: with your friends. You want to binge watch your favorite
- 1:36:48Speaker 1: Netflix show. How does politics compete with anything else that's
- 1:36:51Speaker 1: available for us to do in our spare time, Tom? Normally,
- 1:36:54Speaker 1: it doesn't. That's why you and I are looked at
- 1:36:56Speaker 1: as weirdos because we spend so much time paying attention
- 1:36:59Speaker 1: to politics. We should be the norm.
- 1:37:03Speaker 4: Yeah, well, common sense... versus crazy has been the theme
- 1:37:07Speaker 4: that you've been hearing. And so part of what you're
- 1:37:09Speaker 4: talking about is if you're not gonna spend that time
- 1:37:13Speaker 4: to do your research and figure it out, then at
- 1:37:16Speaker 4: least use common sense. So when someone says to you, hey,
- 1:37:21Speaker 4: we're gonna give free healthcare to everyone, It's not that
- 1:37:25Speaker 4: hard for the common American who deals with their own
- 1:37:28Speaker 4: budget to go, yeah, who's going to pay for that?
- 1:37:32Speaker 4: And what does that cost? I mean, so I do
- 1:37:35Speaker 4: think that that's the key to this election. Our people
- 1:37:39Speaker 4: aren't stupid. They're not. They may be uninformed, Brian, right?
- 1:37:44Speaker 4: And they may be influenced by things that they aren't
- 1:37:47Speaker 4: aware they're being manipulated. But they're not stupid. And I
- 1:37:51Speaker 4: do believe that you're seeing in the polls and things
- 1:37:54Speaker 4: that people are starting to figure some things out. They
- 1:37:58Speaker 4: don't want unlimited illegal immigration. They figured out that, geez,
- 1:38:02Speaker 4: that raised the rents, that raised the medical costs, that
- 1:38:06Speaker 4: hurt me. And so I think that's what we got
- 1:38:09Speaker 4: to focus on is think it through, analyze it a
- 1:38:13Speaker 4: little bit, and you'll know where to vote.
- 1:38:15Speaker 11: Yeah.
- 1:38:15Speaker 1: And bookmark wethepeopleconvention.org's website. There's the easy information. Tom's speaking
- 1:38:21Speaker 1: the truth every single day. Tom, we'll have you on
- 1:38:23Speaker 1: next week. We'll do this again. And I appreciate what
- 1:38:26Speaker 1: you do throughout the week, brother. 806 here at 55KRCD
- 1:38:32Speaker 1: Talk Station. Always look forward to this hour and this
- 1:38:34Speaker 1: day of the week because now is the time we
- 1:38:36Speaker 1: get the inside scoop with Breitbart News. Heard his name
- 1:38:40Speaker 1: a lot this morning, beginning with Dr. Jay Rissover, reminding
- 1:38:42Speaker 1: folks that tonight, beginning at 7 p.m., log in to empoweryouamerica.org.
- 1:38:47Speaker 1: And here what my next guest, politics editor Bradley Jay
- 1:38:50Speaker 1: from Breitbart, has to say about the November elections, midterm
- 1:38:54Speaker 1: elections fast approaching. So he'll be doing that seminar tonight. Again,
- 1:38:57Speaker 1: log in from the comfort of your own home, empoweryouamerica.org. And,
- 1:39:00Speaker 1: of course, as I always start out the segment, Breitbart,
- 1:39:03Speaker 1: bookmark it, B-R-E-I-T-B-A-R-T.com. Outstanding reporting, a lot of which is
- 1:39:08Speaker 1: done by Bradley Jay, politics editor. Welcome back, Bradley. It's
- 1:39:10Speaker 1: always a pleasure to have you on the show, man.
- 1:39:13Speaker 5: Thank you for having me. This is always a lot
- 1:39:15Speaker 5: of fun. I'm glad to join you.
- 1:39:16Speaker 1: I just enjoy the discussion, and I appreciate, again, I
- 1:39:19Speaker 1: rely on Breitbart quite a bit for the content of
- 1:39:22Speaker 1: the 55KRC Morning Show. It's logical, it's reasonable, it's accurate,
- 1:39:25Speaker 1: and it's all common sense. Evil orange man. I regularly
- 1:39:30Speaker 1: refer to Trump like that because I know so many
- 1:39:33Speaker 1: people with Trump derangement syndrome, and no, I don't believe
- 1:39:35Speaker 1: he's evil, but they're so... Angry about Trump. And I
- 1:39:39Speaker 1: had a conversation. I'll just give you a little brief
- 1:39:42Speaker 1: recitation of the conversation I had yesterday with a dear
- 1:39:44Speaker 1: loved one of mine. She just went out of her skin,
- 1:39:50Speaker 1: kind of out of nowhere about Donald Trump. I just
- 1:39:52Speaker 1: can't wait till that guy's out of here. And I said,
- 1:39:55Speaker 1: you know, let that influence your your your votes. And
- 1:39:57Speaker 1: of course, the answer was yes. And so I just
- 1:40:00Speaker 1: went down a very brief litany of what the left
- 1:40:03Speaker 1: is offering us, which isn't much, and it's going to
- 1:40:06Speaker 1: bring about a lot of financial harm and pain, and
- 1:40:08Speaker 1: it's going to ruin our lives and our freedoms and liberties, Bradley,
- 1:40:11Speaker 1: but that's not enough to help her overcome evil orange
- 1:40:14Speaker 1: man syndrome. Now, what's your take on this? Is this
- 1:40:18Speaker 1: really what's driving what appears to be polls that favor
- 1:40:23Speaker 1: the Democrats by some sizable margins, or are we looking
- 1:40:26Speaker 1: at the 2024 scenario where they were all off by
- 1:40:29Speaker 1: like 10 points? You got any thoughts on that, Bradley?
- 1:40:33Speaker 5: Well, you talk about 2024 when the polls are so off,
- 1:40:37Speaker 5: but that wasn't the first time. I remember back in
- 1:40:42Speaker 5: 2016 when, didn't a bunch of the pollsters come out
- 1:40:46Speaker 5: with some joint statement that was a mea culpa statement?
- 1:40:50Speaker 5: we're so sorry we got this wrong. We're going to
- 1:40:53Speaker 5: figure out what we did incorrectly and we're going to
- 1:40:57Speaker 5: fix it, whether it's stop relying on landlines and use
- 1:41:01Speaker 5: more texting or online. It seems like every two years
- 1:41:05Speaker 5: since then, there's been some form of, well, we hadn't
- 1:41:08Speaker 5: gotten it right yet, but we're going to keep trying. Look,
- 1:41:11Speaker 5: polling is incredibly difficult and it is incredibly expensive. And
- 1:41:17Speaker 5: even if you have good intentions and are trying to
- 1:41:21Speaker 5: be as nonpartisan as you can, it is incredibly difficult.
- 1:41:26Speaker 5: But even that, those aren't the kind of polls that
- 1:41:29Speaker 5: we see. Almost every poll is paid for by someone,
- 1:41:33Speaker 5: whether it's this candidate or that candidate or another group.
- 1:41:37Speaker 5: Pollsters are also notoriously cowardly. Washington, D.C. is a city
- 1:41:43Speaker 5: with a courage deficit, and pollsters fit very neatly into
- 1:41:49Speaker 5: that set. Pollsters do not want their polls to be outliers.
- 1:41:53Speaker 5: Not only do they not want their polls to not
- 1:41:56Speaker 5: be outliers from existing polls, but they don't want their
- 1:42:01Speaker 5: polls to be outliers from the establishment legacy media narrative
- 1:42:08Speaker 5: that's being pushed. So all of this is going on together.
- 1:42:13Speaker 5: There's an ecosystem that a lot of these polls are
- 1:42:16Speaker 5: coming from. And that doesn't even take into account the
- 1:42:19Speaker 5: fact that remember earlier in the year where there was
- 1:42:22Speaker 5: an actual fake polling company, Meridian Strategies. That when it
- 1:42:26Speaker 5: was busted, said, oh, sorry, we were just doing this
- 1:42:30Speaker 5: as a social experiment. So, look, you can't believe what
- 1:42:34Speaker 5: the polls, and this is important as well, the notion
- 1:42:37Speaker 5: that polls are, oh, if the election was held today,
- 1:42:41Speaker 5: this is how things would shake out. That is not
- 1:42:44Speaker 5: what polls are. Polls are useful. But I mean, most
- 1:42:47Speaker 5: voters haven't even been paying attention to where things stand.
- 1:42:51Speaker 5: So that is not what polls are. They are useful,
- 1:42:54Speaker 5: but they are not a representation of how the vote
- 1:42:57Speaker 5: would be if the election were held today.
- 1:42:59Speaker 1: Well, on the heels of my just off the air
- 1:43:01Speaker 1: with the prior guest lament about people not really paying
- 1:43:03Speaker 1: attention to politics, generally speaking, they got more important things
- 1:43:06Speaker 1: to do in their world. And I get that. but
- 1:43:08Speaker 1: is there time between now and November, even though early
- 1:43:13Speaker 1: voting is going on right now in Ohio or in
- 1:43:15Speaker 1: here in Ohio, but is there time between now and November?
- 1:43:18Speaker 1: Do you have hope that people will wake up and
- 1:43:20Speaker 1: start paying attention? Because I just read this morning, there
- 1:43:23Speaker 1: are 200 Democrats, socialist candidates running for office in this country.
- 1:43:29Speaker 1: This is, this is a creep that's dangerous. And it's,
- 1:43:32Speaker 1: I hate using the word existential, but they've made significant
- 1:43:36Speaker 1: inroads at Democrat Party. I don't think many people are
- 1:43:38Speaker 1: really paying attention because their advocacy is for things that
- 1:43:42Speaker 1: are polar opposite to our constitutional freedoms and liberties. I mean,
- 1:43:47Speaker 1: supreme law of the land is under threat by the
- 1:43:49Speaker 1: platform that they're running on. And I'm not quite sure
- 1:43:53Speaker 1: people have grasped that. I mean, Abdul Al-Sayed and what
- 1:43:56Speaker 1: he stands for, I mean, he has a chance to win. Bradley,
- 1:44:00Speaker 1: that blows my mind. So I'm just hoping that There's
- 1:44:03Speaker 1: a little bit of catch up time here and the
- 1:44:05Speaker 1: people like, well, wait a second, I'm not voting for
- 1:44:06Speaker 1: that guy. I mean, what is your take on that
- 1:44:09Speaker 1: between now and November?
- 1:44:12Speaker 5: Generally, it is accepted that voters don't truly begin paying
- 1:44:17Speaker 5: attention to politics and the upcoming elections until after Labor Day.
- 1:44:26Speaker 5: We've been there for weeks now. But I mean, in Ohio,
- 1:44:31Speaker 5: just a couple weeks ago, there was a poll that
- 1:44:34Speaker 5: showed that 25% of voters in Ohio still believe that
- 1:44:39Speaker 5: Sherrod Brown is an incumbent. So voters have a lot
- 1:44:43Speaker 5: to learn. They have to learn it fast. One issue
- 1:44:46Speaker 5: that we're going to, I know, one issue that we
- 1:44:49Speaker 5: won't have in Ohio or the Republicans won't have is
- 1:44:52Speaker 5: a lack of money. John Husted Vivek Ramaswamy, these congressional candidates,
- 1:44:59Speaker 5: they're going to have plenty of money to spend to
- 1:45:02Speaker 5: tell their stories to voters. Voters aren't going to be
- 1:45:05Speaker 5: able to get away with it. I'm sorry for those
- 1:45:07Speaker 5: of you who don't want to be inundated with ads.
- 1:45:11Speaker 5: But look, it's going to be up to the candidates
- 1:45:13Speaker 5: and the party machinery backing them to get that message out,
- 1:45:17Speaker 5: to get the right message out and to campaign correctly
- 1:45:20Speaker 5: to spend time and and money and resources properly. I
- 1:45:24Speaker 5: remember earlier in the year, the Mamdani massacre, when those
- 1:45:29Speaker 5: three Mamdani-endorsed DSA candidates all won those big congressional races
- 1:45:35Speaker 5: in New York, two of them, I believe, over incumbents,
- 1:45:39Speaker 5: popular left-wing incumbents. These weren't blue-dog Democrats or anything by
- 1:45:49Speaker 5: any means. These were left-wing progressive incumbents. And then the
- 1:45:53Speaker 5: DSA candidates won, defeated them. Look, the Democrats, their chickens
- 1:45:58Speaker 5: are coming home.
- 1:46:00Speaker 1: To roost.
- 1:46:03Speaker 5: And it was fun then, and it's kind of fun
- 1:46:10Speaker 5: to laugh.
- 1:46:12Speaker 3: But, Brian, you're right.
- 1:46:13Speaker 5: The Democrat Party is heading these people. I mean, make
- 1:46:18Speaker 5: no mistake about it, it is a migration that is
- 1:46:21Speaker 5: driving this change in politics. And Democrats just assumed, well,
- 1:46:25Speaker 5: these people's choices will be Republican and Democrat, and they're
- 1:46:28Speaker 5: going to choose the Democrats because we're the ones who
- 1:46:31Speaker 5: brought them in and catered to them and looked the
- 1:46:33Speaker 5: other way as they committed fraud and on and on
- 1:46:36Speaker 5: and on. Well, that's not the case. They were brought
- 1:46:38Speaker 5: in in such numbers that they are rejecting that party
- 1:46:42Speaker 5: that was their benefactor, and they're driving them out. So
- 1:46:46Speaker 5: it is incredibly dangerous, this leftward movement. It's not an alert.
- 1:46:51Speaker 5: This leftward launch that we've seen from the Democrat Party
- 1:46:55Speaker 5: and the ramifications will be significant.
- 1:46:58Speaker 1: Well, ramifications will be significant if they take over. And maybe,
- 1:47:02Speaker 1: dear God, maybe just maybe people will not stay at
- 1:47:05Speaker 1: home and they will realize this and vote in their
- 1:47:07Speaker 1: best interest, which is to not vote for the Democrats.
- 1:47:10Speaker 1: They're the ones with the big tent, Bradley. Isn't it odd? Oh, well,
- 1:47:13Speaker 1: it's a big tent here. And, you know, yeah, we
- 1:47:15Speaker 1: have some regular traditional Democrats and yeah, they're They are
- 1:47:18Speaker 1: pretty far-left socialists, but they embrace some of the concepts
- 1:47:21Speaker 1: and ideas that we want, so they're welcome in our
- 1:47:23Speaker 1: Big Ten, even though what they want is completely opposite
- 1:47:26Speaker 1: of what the Constitution provides for and what has served
- 1:47:29Speaker 1: us so well for so long. But, you look over
- 1:47:32Speaker 1: at the Republican side, if the Republicans said, well, yeah,
- 1:47:35Speaker 1: that's a racist organization, the Ku Klux Klan, and I
- 1:47:37Speaker 1: know they used to be the benefits, or the Democrats
- 1:47:40Speaker 1: used to benefit from them, and they were a Democrat organization, but,
- 1:47:44Speaker 1: you know, they're a bunch of racists, and we don't
- 1:47:45Speaker 1: like that, but They tend to lean toward the conservative
- 1:47:49Speaker 1: principles that we're articulating, so they're welcome in the big tent.
- 1:47:52Speaker 1: You know how destructive that would be if you made
- 1:47:55Speaker 1: that argument? We reject the fringe. We reject the crazies
- 1:47:59Speaker 1: of the world. We don't want them in our party.
- 1:48:01Speaker 1: I'm a little libertarian, but I find myself comfortably under
- 1:48:05Speaker 1: the banner or the tent of the Republican Party because
- 1:48:07Speaker 1: I believe in fiscal responsibility, limited government, and free market.
- 1:48:10Speaker 1: Republicans are the only one even paying lip service to
- 1:48:13Speaker 1: those concepts. But Democrats are taking anyone, including people who
- 1:48:17Speaker 1: want to destroy our country with communism. Bradley, I don't
- 1:48:20Speaker 1: know how that resonates. And I'm hoping people wake up
- 1:48:22Speaker 1: between now and election day. I just am worried that
- 1:48:25Speaker 1: it won't happen because again, I hear this evil orange man,
- 1:48:28Speaker 1: Trump derangement syndrome phenomenon all around me from people that
- 1:48:32Speaker 1: otherwise should be clear thinking, rational individuals like that dear
- 1:48:36Speaker 1: loved one I talked to yesterday.
- 1:48:41Speaker 5: Well, part of the left's ideology and their weird brainwashing
- 1:48:47Speaker 5: is you have to.
- 1:48:51Speaker 5: They're not proud to be Americans, or at least this ideology.
- 1:48:55Speaker 5: I'm not saying every single person who votes Democrat. But
- 1:48:59Speaker 5: everything that you have is ill-gotten gains. If you're James Tallarico,
- 1:49:06Speaker 5: your whiteness is something to be ashamed of.
- 1:49:09Speaker 1: You owe.
- 1:49:10Speaker 5: everything you have to others who are less fortunate. So
- 1:49:14Speaker 5: it's baked into that cake that you must vote against
- 1:49:21Speaker 5: your own self-interest. It's very bizarre. socially, how they're able
- 1:49:28Speaker 5: to convince people to support this ideology. It's not a
- 1:49:33Speaker 5: big tent. They frame it as a big tent, but
- 1:49:36Speaker 5: to be invited into the tent and to belong in it,
- 1:49:39Speaker 5: you have to just be in lockstep on everything, whereas
- 1:49:44Speaker 5: I think that the tent that Donald Trump has built
- 1:49:47Speaker 5: over the past 10 years, yeah, we've pushed some folks out,
- 1:49:50Speaker 5: the coastal elite types, but we've brought in blue-collar workers
- 1:49:56Speaker 5: of every type. He's brought in Hispanics, particularly in states
- 1:50:01Speaker 5: like Florida and Texas. He's brought in many more black
- 1:50:06Speaker 5: Americans as well. It is actually an ideological big tent
- 1:50:13Speaker 5: as opposed to what the Democrats do. But look, if
- 1:50:16Speaker 5: you're a Republican or an Independent who's thinking about staying
- 1:50:20Speaker 5: home because you're turned off by... by this or that.
- 1:50:25Speaker 5: I mean, come on. I mean, we are searching Ilhan
- 1:50:29Speaker 5: Omar's house, and you aren't excited to go to the
- 1:50:32Speaker 5: polls and vote for that? I mean, give me a break.
- 1:50:35Speaker 5: I might vote twice just because of that. I mean,
- 1:50:38Speaker 5: he's doing exactly the kind of thing that he promised
- 1:50:42Speaker 5: he was going to do. I mean, I just, and
- 1:50:46Speaker 5: here's the thing, bro. I do not believe that just
- 1:50:48Speaker 5: two years removed from Donald Trump winning every single battleground
- 1:50:52Speaker 5: state All of a sudden voters are going to say,
- 1:50:55Speaker 5: you know what, my gas prices are a little bit high.
- 1:50:59Speaker 5: It's time to bring in Sharia law and trans all
- 1:51:03Speaker 5: the kindergartners. I just don't believe that that is the case.
- 1:51:06Speaker 5: And it gets back to your original point about polling.
- 1:51:09Speaker 5: I don't think it's right. I don't think that much
- 1:51:13Speaker 5: of it is done with good intent on finding the truth.
- 1:51:17Speaker 5: And I don't think that they are capable of capturing
- 1:51:20Speaker 5: where the electorate is going to be on election day.
- 1:51:23Speaker 1: Well, one thing that they demonstrate the leftists do, that
- 1:51:26Speaker 1: they are an extremely well-organized group of people. They are
- 1:51:30Speaker 1: social media connected. They have instant tweets and messages to
- 1:51:34Speaker 1: organize people on a moment's notice. They're going to show up. Now,
- 1:51:38Speaker 1: they represent a smaller segment of society because they're the
- 1:51:41Speaker 1: ones that believe in this fringe communism stuff, but they're
- 1:51:43Speaker 1: definitely going to show up. And that's why I think
- 1:51:46Speaker 1: some of those DSA candidates won and beat some of
- 1:51:48Speaker 1: the better-known incumbents who aren't as crazy. is because their
- 1:51:52Speaker 1: people showed up. And I bet those elections only, what, 45%
- 1:51:56Speaker 1: voter turnout for the primaries? I mean, is it something
- 1:51:58Speaker 1: like that? I didn't look at the numbers you were
- 1:52:00Speaker 1: talking about, but right here in Cincinnati, the last election,
- 1:52:02Speaker 1: only 25% of registered voters showed up. We got 100% Democrats, right?
- 1:52:08Speaker 1: Mayor and all the city council members, Democrat. Not a
- 1:52:11Speaker 1: single wavering vote. So more of the same, and it's
- 1:52:14Speaker 1: all dysfunction. People voted for dysfunction. If all the other
- 1:52:17Speaker 1: people had bothered to show up and vote, I think
- 1:52:19Speaker 1: the outcome would have been a little bit different. That's
- 1:52:21Speaker 1: why we need to rally folks to go out and vote, Bradley.
- 1:52:26Speaker 5: And it's always going to be a challenge for conservatives
- 1:52:30Speaker 5: or libertarian-leaning conservatives. because we don't view the government as
- 1:52:36Speaker 5: the solution to all our problems. We don't view it
- 1:52:40Speaker 5: as the vehicle for change that the left does. The
- 1:52:45Speaker 5: left is always enthusiastic about voting, easily mobilized to vote,
- 1:52:51Speaker 5: because every single thing that they want to happen, they
- 1:52:54Speaker 5: don't look and community the way conservatives do or to
- 1:52:59Speaker 5: faith in the family. There was that problem when I
- 1:53:02Speaker 5: worked on Capitol Hill. You had Republican members of Congress who,
- 1:53:08Speaker 5: it's hard to criticize them for this, wanted to do
- 1:53:10Speaker 5: their jobs and get back to their families, whereas Democrat
- 1:53:13Speaker 5: members of Congress generally weren't burdened by that. They saw
- 1:53:18Speaker 5: their positions as a vehicle for change and to gain
- 1:53:24Speaker 5: power and and most Republicans were just excited to kind
- 1:53:28Speaker 5: of be included. But that is a challenge when it
- 1:53:31Speaker 5: comes to mobilizing voters, and I wonder if there needs
- 1:53:35Speaker 5: to be a change where Republicans stop just dumping all
- 1:53:40Speaker 5: their money into ads, whether it's digital or on TV,
- 1:53:45Speaker 5: and that there needs to be more of a voter
- 1:53:47Speaker 5: outreach program that is instituted as something that the left
- 1:53:51Speaker 5: has traditionally done very well, and Republicans with... early vote
- 1:53:55Speaker 5: action you know the scott prussell being in a very
- 1:53:58Speaker 5: limited uh uh role has done and the rnc and
- 1:54:02Speaker 5: others are doing but you got to get folks excited
- 1:54:05Speaker 5: about voting and republicans generally aren't doing a very good
- 1:54:08Speaker 5: job at that but when you look at the contrast
- 1:54:09Speaker 5: where the two parties are it should be an easy choice.
- 1:54:12Speaker 1: It isn't very easy choice bright part news politics editor

- 1:54:51Speaker 1: Tuesday at this moment in time to hear what he
- 1:54:54Speaker 1: has to say live. Daniel Davis, welcome back, my friend.
- 1:54:56Speaker 1: Pleasure having you on.
- 1:54:58Speaker 3: You know, it's always a pleasure to be here. Thanks
- 1:55:00Speaker 3: for having me.
- 1:55:00Speaker 1: I'm glad you enjoy it because I thoroughly do. And
- 1:55:03Speaker 1: you've got all kinds of inside access and resources in
- 1:55:05Speaker 1: connection with these wars that are waging. are being waged around.
- 1:55:08Speaker 1: And before we get to unpackaging what's going on with
- 1:55:11Speaker 1: the Iranians and the re-fortification of the nuclear sites and
- 1:55:14Speaker 1: everything that's going on there and whether or not we're
- 1:55:16Speaker 1: going to bomb before the election or after the election,
- 1:55:18Speaker 1: what's going on with Vladimir Putin and Zelensky? Because the
- 1:55:25Speaker 1: Trump administration, Donald Trump announced that he wants them to
- 1:55:28Speaker 1: stop bombing each other's oil infrastructure because we've got a
- 1:55:31Speaker 1: global shortage of, of course, petroleum products, most notably diesel.
- 1:55:36Speaker 1: Within moments of Trump saying, you know, don't break the deal,
- 1:55:39Speaker 1: we got the Russians bombing a power plant in Kiev
- 1:55:42Speaker 1: and a thermal power plant in Kharkiv, among others. They
- 1:55:46Speaker 1: didn't listen to him. And then now Donald Trump is
- 1:55:48Speaker 1: calling for Zelensky to step down and have a new election.
- 1:55:51Speaker 1: Can you provide a Daniel Davis deep dive unpackaging of this?
- 1:55:55Speaker 1: Because I'm a little confused of where we are.
- 1:55:59Speaker 3: Yeah, this is more wishful thinking for President Trump because he–
- 1:56:04Speaker 3: He posted on True Social that both sides had agreed
- 1:56:08Speaker 3: to an energy ceasefire. And he said, you better not
- 1:56:12Speaker 3: break it. Problem is, neither side agreed to an energy ceasefire.
- 1:56:16Speaker 3: Ukraine didn't do it. Russia didn't do it. So Russia's like, hey,
- 1:56:20Speaker 3: that was not part of our diesel deal. We didn't
- 1:56:22Speaker 3: say anything about a ceasefire. We're still in the war.
- 1:56:25Speaker 3: We're willing to sell you diesel, but we're not stopping
- 1:56:28Speaker 3: our war. And then Zelensky, for his part, says, yeah,
- 1:56:30Speaker 3: you know, a ceasefire would be great. As a matter
- 1:56:32Speaker 3: of fact, maybe you can give me a couple of months.
- 1:56:34Speaker 3: You want me to have a new election? You want
- 1:56:36Speaker 3: a new president?
- 1:56:37Speaker 4: That's fine. We'll do that.
- 1:56:38Speaker 3: But I need two months of a complete and total
- 1:56:42Speaker 3: ceasefire in order to get ready for the elections or something,
- 1:56:45Speaker 3: which the Russians have said, yeah, that's not going to happen.
- 1:56:48Speaker 3: We'll give you a few days, maybe, and we'll give
- 1:56:50Speaker 3: a complete ceasefire so you can have your elections, but
- 1:56:53Speaker 3: on our terms, not on yours. And of course, now
- 1:56:55Speaker 3: the war continues on. Zelensky, just this morning, posted one
- 1:57:00Speaker 3: more time. He said, for the second straight night, we
- 1:57:02Speaker 3: did not attack any of the Russian energy infrastructure, implying
- 1:57:05Speaker 3: that that's got an expiration date. And if I keep
- 1:57:08Speaker 3: getting hit, I'm going to go back to hitting two.
- 1:57:11Speaker 3: And then we'll find out what President Trump does in between.
- 1:57:13Speaker 3: But just one point, this happened also on the 14th
- 1:57:16Speaker 3: of September, where Trump declared on Truth Social that both
- 1:57:20Speaker 3: sides had agreed to an energy ceasefire. And that time,
- 1:57:22Speaker 3: it was Ukraine that that launched an attack against Russian
- 1:57:26Speaker 3: infrastructure within three hours. And this time it was the
- 1:57:30Speaker 3: Russians that did, but the Russians never agreed to anything.
- 1:57:32Speaker 3: So it's a big mess.
- 1:57:34Speaker 1: Oh, and we had that memorandum of understanding with the
- 1:57:36Speaker 1: Iranians that about five minutes after that thing was signed,
- 1:57:38Speaker 1: the Iranians started bombing boats. I just ask you this.
- 1:57:41Speaker 1: I don't want to sound like I'm being overly critical
- 1:57:44Speaker 1: of Trump, but it seems to me that there has
- 1:57:46Speaker 1: to be some strategy because quite often he comes out
- 1:57:50Speaker 1: and says something that is just not accurate. In this
- 1:57:54Speaker 1: particular case, he said out loud, both parties agree to it.
- 1:57:58Speaker 1: You know it. I know it. The realities of what
- 1:57:59Speaker 1: happened in real world time with the bombing, they didn't
- 1:58:04Speaker 1: agree to it. They came out loud and said it.
- 1:58:05Speaker 1: Why would he subject himself to that kind of criticism?
- 1:58:08Speaker 1: Is there something that I'm missing? in the strategy on
- 1:58:11Speaker 1: saying it?
- 1:58:12Speaker 3: Well, there might be something that we're just not willing
- 1:58:15Speaker 3: to acknowledge because it's uncomfortable. And that is that President
- 1:58:18Speaker 3: Trump could be having some genuine cognitive decline problems. Because yesterday,
- 1:58:23Speaker 3: I don't know if you saw yesterday afternoon, one of
- 1:58:25Speaker 3: the reporters out in front of the White House asked him,
- 1:58:27Speaker 3: they said, hey, You said that there was an agreement
- 1:58:30Speaker 3: on both sides, but both sides said there was no agreement.
- 1:58:33Speaker 1: What do you say?
- 1:58:34Speaker 3: And he goes, you know what? There was an agreement.
- 1:58:36Speaker 4: You know why?
- 1:58:36Speaker 3: Because I said there was. And, you know, everybody's kind
- 1:58:40Speaker 3: of looking at each other like, what? Just because you
- 1:58:43Speaker 3: say it doesn't mean that it's true. But somehow in
- 1:58:45Speaker 3: his mind that did because he was pretty angry about it.
- 1:58:48Speaker 3: And now that everybody else, and that means Zelensky, that
- 1:58:51Speaker 3: means the Europeans, that means the Russians, everybody's got to
- 1:58:54Speaker 3: try to figure out what is President Trump going to do?
- 1:58:57Speaker 3: What does he mean? And if we don't do what
- 1:58:59Speaker 3: he imagines we agree to, what is he going to
- 1:59:01Speaker 3: do in response? And I mean, that's both sides, adversaries
- 1:59:04Speaker 3: and allies alike.
- 1:59:05Speaker 1: We all have to try to figure it out.
- 1:59:07Speaker 3: And that is no way to do international business.
- 1:59:10Speaker 1: Well, that's kind of my take on it. Again, I,
- 1:59:11Speaker 1: you know, I can hear the listeners screaming at the radio. Ah,
- 1:59:14Speaker 1: he's part of the conspiracy theory that, you know, it's
- 1:59:16Speaker 1: Trump's not Biden. He's much better than all I can
- 1:59:19Speaker 1: say as well. He did say both sides agreed and
- 1:59:22Speaker 1: both sides said they did not agree. So how do
- 1:59:25Speaker 1: you make sense of it? It's a legitimate question, Daniel Davis.
- 1:59:28Speaker 1: I just have to say it out loud. So in
- 1:59:30Speaker 1: the ceasefire component, I guess I'm wondering why, But that
- 1:59:35Speaker 1: would inure to Zelensky's benefit because if he had a
- 1:59:37Speaker 1: short time to cease fire, obviously drone production goes on 24-7.
- 1:59:41Speaker 1: They can build up a lot of additional drone resources
- 1:59:44Speaker 1: that they can launch on the Russians if they get
- 1:59:46Speaker 1: a two-month pause in the bombing. The Russians obviously don't
- 1:59:49Speaker 1: have any strategic benefit in allowing that, do they? Or
- 1:59:52Speaker 1: maybe I'm missing something on that point.
- 1:59:54Speaker 3: Not only do you have it spot on, that is
- 1:59:56Speaker 3: almost verbatim what the Russians said. That's why they said
- 1:59:58Speaker 3: we're not going to have one of those because the
- 2:00:01Speaker 3: only party that would benefit from that is our adversary.
- 2:00:04Speaker 3: And if you're going to ask me to do something
- 2:00:06Speaker 3: like that, there has to be a pretty big quid
- 2:00:08Speaker 3: pro quo, and there's not anything offered. They don't see one,
- 2:00:11Speaker 3: so they say, no, we're not going to do that.
- 2:00:13Speaker 3: What they do say over and over is we are
- 2:00:15Speaker 3: absolutely willing to go into end-of-war negotiations. We are looking
- 2:00:19Speaker 3: for an end-of-war peace treaty, not just a temporary ceasefire
- 2:00:23Speaker 3: that will only benefit you in coming back and hitting
- 2:00:25Speaker 3: us harder. We're just not going to go there. And
- 2:00:27Speaker 3: unfortunately for us... they have the leverage to make their
- 2:00:31Speaker 3: version reality on the ground.
- 2:00:33Speaker 1: We don't get to bypass that. Well, and of course
- 2:00:35Speaker 1: the Russians have every interest in making life miserable for
- 2:00:39Speaker 1: the Ukrainians that maybe haven't had life as miserable as
- 2:00:41Speaker 1: they can be. If you bomb the infrastructure, you're going to,
- 2:00:44Speaker 1: as you head on into winter, a lot of people
- 2:00:46Speaker 1: are going to be freezing their collective butts off and
- 2:00:49Speaker 1: starvation may become an issue for the Ukrainians.
- 2:00:53Speaker 9: It is.
- 2:00:54Speaker 3: In fact, that's one of the other problems that we
- 2:00:57Speaker 3: have in this is that Kayakalis, basically the foreign minister
- 2:01:02Speaker 3: for the European Union, made that very point. She says,
- 2:01:05Speaker 3: you know, we're coming up because Russia's hit so much
- 2:01:07Speaker 3: infrastructure over the last six or so months, heading in
- 2:01:11Speaker 3: now to the beginning into the winter phase, there's going
- 2:01:14Speaker 3: to be some real problems here. And she just said, listen,
- 2:01:16Speaker 3: we need a ceasefire so that Ukraine can rebuild some
- 2:01:20Speaker 3: of this stuff. And that's That's fine as far as
- 2:01:22Speaker 3: it goes, but she offers Russia nothing to do that.
- 2:01:26Speaker 3: And she just says, you know, Russia is bad, so
- 2:01:27Speaker 3: we're not going to do anything different. We're not going
- 2:01:29Speaker 3: to take anything off the table. We're not going to
- 2:01:31Speaker 3: stop attacking Russia, but we want them to stop attacking Ukraine.
- 2:01:35Speaker 3: And that's just unrealistic. And if I can say, hey,
- 2:01:38Speaker 3: there may be some issues with President Trump, there's some
- 2:01:41Speaker 3: cognitive problems here, you can't claim that on the European side.
- 2:01:45Speaker 3: It's just delusional thinking. from European leaders across the board,
- 2:01:49Speaker 3: and they have nothing to offer Ukraine that can help
- 2:01:51Speaker 3: them win. All they can do, Brian, so important here,
- 2:01:55Speaker 3: all they can do is keep the war going, can
- 2:01:57Speaker 3: drag it out further, and then that makes sure more
- 2:02:00Speaker 3: Ukrainian people die pointlessly. They're never going to defeat Russia.
- 2:02:05Speaker 3: The only chance they have is to have some kind
- 2:02:07Speaker 3: of negotiated settlement on ugly terms that we won't like,
- 2:02:10Speaker 3: but on terms that will end the killing of Ukraine,
- 2:02:13Speaker 3: at least preserve something of the state.
- 2:02:15Speaker 2: Otherwise.
- 2:02:16Speaker 3: we faced a prospect that they could one day physically lose.
- 2:02:19Speaker 1: Well, a pause in kinetic activity would allow the Ukrainians
- 2:02:21Speaker 1: to re-fortify some of their drone and arsenal, but that's
- 2:02:24Speaker 1: kind of what's going on right now and so far
- 2:02:26Speaker 1: with us vis-a-vis the Iranians, which I read are now
- 2:02:29Speaker 1: re-fortifying the nuclear bases. They're building, I guess, berms around,
- 2:02:34Speaker 1: so they're expecting ground forces to perhaps enter certain areas.
- 2:02:38Speaker 1: Got Donald Trump's threat in that Well, we're going to
- 2:02:40Speaker 1: start bombing them again either after the election or before
- 2:02:42Speaker 1: the election. We've got another carrier group going on over there,
- 2:02:44Speaker 1: which I think is to suggest that he plans on
- 2:02:46Speaker 1: making good on it. But here they are using the
- 2:02:51Speaker 1: time to re-fortify. I mean, they're expecting some kind of
- 2:02:54Speaker 1: bombing campaign, but they're not backing off, Daniel Davis.
- 2:02:58Speaker 3: Oh, not only are they not backing off, because I've
- 2:03:01Speaker 3: talked to a number of folks associated– with from Tehran University,
- 2:03:05Speaker 3: for example, and they categorically say they all expect there
- 2:03:09Speaker 3: to be an attack. They don't even think it's probable.
- 2:03:12Speaker 3: They think it's going to happen. So they're merely just
- 2:03:14Speaker 3: saying we just don't know when it's going to happen,
- 2:03:16Speaker 3: but we're ready for it. And they're preparing fully for everything,
- 2:03:19Speaker 3: everything from like a local ground incursion, obviously not a
- 2:03:23Speaker 3: ground invasion like, you know, in Iraq in 2003, but
- 2:03:26Speaker 3: some kind of special forces kind of thing or a
- 2:03:29Speaker 3: marine expeditionary unit, something like that. And then, of course,
- 2:03:32Speaker 3: big missile strikes here. But the problem is we're never
- 2:03:36Speaker 3: going to be able to penetrate those underground mountain caverns
- 2:03:40Speaker 3: into missile cities with our conventional weapons or, and I'll
- 2:03:43Speaker 3: be blunt, not even nuclear weapons because those things are
- 2:03:46Speaker 3: so far underground of a grand mountain, we cannot knock
- 2:03:50Speaker 3: them out with nuclear weapons even. So certainly conventional weapons won't.
- 2:03:53Speaker 3: So if we go back and try to do again
- 2:03:56Speaker 3: what we did in the first 40 days or the
- 2:03:57Speaker 3: second 13-day process, All we're going to do is burn
- 2:04:00Speaker 3: through more of our missiles. We'll kill a lot of Iranians.
- 2:04:02Speaker 3: We'll blow up a lot of stuff on the surface,
- 2:04:05Speaker 3: but not where the drone factories are, not where the
- 2:04:07Speaker 3: missile factories are, not where the launch points are. We
- 2:04:10Speaker 3: cannot knock those all out. So all that's going to
- 2:04:13Speaker 3: do is Iran then is going to launch and potentially
- 2:04:16Speaker 3: burn down the Middle East, which is what they've claimed
- 2:04:18Speaker 3: to do. Now, ironically, the one thing that's putting a
- 2:04:21Speaker 3: brake on that, it might be China, because they're saying
- 2:04:24Speaker 3: don't do that to their ally Iran or their friend Iran.
- 2:04:27Speaker 3: And they're saying because that will cause problems for us
- 2:04:29Speaker 3: and the global economy that will drag us all down.
- 2:04:32Speaker 3: So they're asking for some restraint. That might be the
- 2:04:35Speaker 3: one thing to slow down what Iran might do. But
- 2:04:37Speaker 3: I can guarantee you it's going to be ugly for
- 2:04:39Speaker 3: our side if we return to combat operations.
- 2:04:42Speaker 1: Well, and we didn't even get to the Houthis in
- 2:04:45Speaker 1: Yemen bombing the Saudi Arabians again and blowing up the
- 2:04:48Speaker 1: Air Force Base. Daniel Davis, we'll have to talk about
- 2:04:50Speaker 1: that perhaps next week and hope for some better news
- 2:04:52Speaker 1: between now and then. Daniel Davis.
- 2:04:54Speaker 3: I'm sure that'll still be on the track.
- 2:04:56Speaker 5: I know.
- 2:04:57Speaker 7: I know.
- 2:04:59Speaker 1: We'll face whatever we face next week. Daniel Davis, Daniel Davis,
