- 5:57Speaker 1: got to get on to some other stuff, here important local.
- 6:00Speaker 1: Stuff first of, all let's start In, whitehall shall. We
- 6:04Speaker 1: The Whitehall City council is now tasked with coming up
- 6:08Speaker 1: with an election date for ANOTHER i guess a vote
- 6:11Speaker 1: date is more appropriate for the the recall election of
- 6:15Speaker 1: the mayor and two members of The Whitehall City. Council
- 6:19Speaker 1: the efforts to get the recall apparently are, successful and
- 6:23Speaker 1: they're going to have to hold this election for the
- 6:26Speaker 1: people to decide do we want to recall or. Not
- 6:30Speaker 1: Now i'm still trying to figure out. THIS i think
- 6:34Speaker 1: this is going to require two, elections because first of
- 6:38Speaker 1: all we're. Recalling then, secondly you know who are we
- 6:42Speaker 1: replacing them. With i'm going to try to get a
- 6:44Speaker 1: hold of somebody In, whitehall although you could probably understand
- 6:47Speaker 1: they don't seem to want to. Talk But i'm going
- 6:50Speaker 1: to try to get a hold of somebody In whitehall
- 6:53Speaker 1: that can clarify. This but it is, underway AND i
- 6:55Speaker 1: just wanted to let you, know Because i've been talking
- 6:57Speaker 1: About whitehall a lot to The city of COLUMBS i
- 7:00Speaker 1: WISH i had. Trumpets do we have? Trumpets we need
- 7:03Speaker 1: trumpets for stuff like this from THE wsyx six. WEBSITE
- 7:08Speaker 1: i love the. Headline lawsuit filed over removal Of Christopher
- 7:14Speaker 1: columbus statue At City. Hall oh, Yeah i've been waiting on.
- 7:19Speaker 1: This this needed to happen a long time. Ago federal
- 7:21Speaker 1: lawsuit challenging the removal of the statue from Outside Columbus City,
- 7:25Speaker 1: hall calling the twenty twenty decision. Discriminatory, Okay i'll go with.
- 7:29Speaker 1: That the complaint centers on the, statue which stood since
- 7:32Speaker 1: nineteen fifty, five was intended to honor the city's namesake
- 7:36Speaker 1: while symbolizing the history and constributions of The Italian american.
- 7:39Speaker 1: Community according to the, Lawsuit Columbus Mayor Andrew ginther ordered
- 7:43Speaker 1: the statue's removal in the summer of twenty. Twenty plainests
- 7:47Speaker 1: argue the mayor did not have the legal authority to
- 7:50Speaker 1: take that, action and they claim there has never been
- 7:52Speaker 1: a lawful basis for either of them or either the
- 7:56Speaker 1: removal of the statue or its continued. Absence the filing
- 7:59Speaker 1: charge the statue is located Outside City hall for decades
- 8:02Speaker 1: before taking, down and its removal represents an ongoing. Injustice
- 8:06Speaker 1: the plaintiffs also claim a mix of state and federal
- 8:09Speaker 1: factors or actors have contributed to keeping the statue from being.
- 8:14Speaker 1: Returned as part of the, lawsuit plaintiffs are asking the
- 8:17Speaker 1: court to restore the statue to its original location what
- 8:22Speaker 1: they describe as a case of funds related to the
- 8:25Speaker 1: removal and uphold their constitutional. Rights Several italian organizations Or
- 8:30Speaker 1: Italian american organizations like The Columbus Piave club And friends
- 8:35Speaker 1: Of Christopher Columbus, foundation the estate of the statue, sculptor
- 8:40Speaker 1: The city Of, Columbus Mayor Andrew, Ginther Columbus Art, commission
- 8:44Speaker 1: several federal, agencies including The department Of Homeland, security all
- 8:49Speaker 1: named in this. Lawsuit so, great great. Need i've been
- 8:55Speaker 1: saying this. Forever you cannot arbitrarily just saw because it
- 9:01Speaker 1: doesn't suit you to remove the statue Of Christopher columbus
- 9:07Speaker 1: from in front of The Columbus City. Hall and if
- 9:10Speaker 1: you had the courage of your, convictions if you knew
- 9:14Speaker 1: you were doing the right, thing it would not have been.
- 9:17Speaker 1: Done quietly and in the middle of the blasted night
- 9:21Speaker 1: which it, was nobody talked about, This nobody said. Anything
- 9:25Speaker 1: the crane just showed up at or was it four,
- 9:26Speaker 1: am three forty am something like. That next morning people
- 9:30Speaker 1: get into Downtown, columbus statue's. Gone that's a. Problem so,
- 9:35Speaker 1: Yeah i'm glad this lawsuit has been. Filed i'm going
- 9:37Speaker 1: to follow, follow follow this because the city will lose this.
- 9:43Speaker 1: One AND i, think, honestly there's a sick, irony humorous
- 9:47Speaker 1: irony in the fact that just a few days ago
- 9:50Speaker 1: we were talking About Zach klein filing suit against The
- 9:52Speaker 1: trump administration for taking arbitrary actions which he believed the
- 9:57Speaker 1: president did not have the author to. Take, well in this,
- 10:02Speaker 1: case the mayor took arbitrary actions which people are saying
- 10:07Speaker 1: he did not have the authority to. Take AND i,
- 10:11Speaker 1: say the city loses on. This and on the Day
- 10:14Speaker 1: i'm going to talk to the, boss on the day
- 10:18Speaker 1: that that statue is restored To Columbus City, HALL i
- 10:22Speaker 1: would like nothing more than to Do The Power hour
- 10:26Speaker 1: live from Ninety West Broad street in front of The
- 10:29Speaker 1: Christopher columbus. Statue So i'm firing the shot across the
- 10:34Speaker 1: bow right now of, management, promotions, sales whoever needs to get.
- 10:38Speaker 1: Involved when that statue returns to the front Of Columbus City,
