  Speaker 1: production of iHeartRadio Podcasts.
• 0:25
  Speaker 2: This is the thirty seventh year I've been doing a
• 0:28
  Speaker 2: radio talk show or a podcast in Milwaukee, and it's
• 0:32
  Speaker 2: been a conservative show or podcast for all of those
• 0:35
  Speaker 2: thirty seven years. And over the years you get a
• 0:38
  Speaker 2: lot of questions, and in particular, you get some questions
• 0:42
  Speaker 2: over and over and over again. This one is on
• 0:45
  Speaker 2: my top five over the years. I'm asked this all
• 0:50
  Speaker 2: the time, by the way, less so the last ten years,
• 0:54
  Speaker 2: but really a lot prior to that. The question was
• 0:58
  Speaker 2: in various versions, Mark, With all of these media companies
• 1:03
  Speaker 2: being owned by conservatives, and with the clear evidence that
• 1:10
  Speaker 2: leftist bias news organizations don't draw a great ratings, don't
• 1:17
  Speaker 2: get big readership, and so on, why don't these conservative
• 1:20
  Speaker 2: owners just get rid of the leftist bias? I'm asked
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: that all the time. Why, in other words, do market
• 1:29
  Speaker 2: market forces not work? They work and everything else. If
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: a company is doing something one way and they're going
• 1:37
  Speaker 2: to make a lot more money and sell a lot
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: more products. If they do it another way, they do
• 1:41
  Speaker 2: it the other way. And the answer that I've always
• 1:45
  Speaker 2: given is it's because almost everyone who works in that
• 1:51
  Speaker 2: field is a leftist. Trying to get the leftist bias
• 1:56
  Speaker 2: out of a news organization, you have no news organization left. Secondly,
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: you get incredible blowback, and after a certain point, these
• 2:05
  Speaker 2: ownerships just shrug their shoulders and put up with it.
• 2:09
  Speaker 2: We've got a case study of this that we're going
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: to open the program with in a moment. When it
• 2:14
  Speaker 2: comes to shipping packaging, industrial supplies, and equipment, many suppliers
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: offer endlessiles of product. You line knows what you can't
• 2:23
  Speaker 2: do with endlessiles of product. Test the quality of each
• 2:26
  Speaker 2: product and sure everything is in stock and ready to
• 2:28
  Speaker 2: ship the same day, and have a team available twenty
• 2:30
  Speaker 2: four to seven to answer your product questions. You Line
• 2:34
  Speaker 2: only carries supplies and equipment they've tested, tried, and often
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: us in their own business experience the You Line difference today.
• 2:43
  Speaker 2: Visit you line dot com. You've probably seen something on
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: this blow up at sixty minutes. I won't give you
• 2:53
  Speaker 2: a lot of the background because many of you know
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: what CBS was bought by Paramount, which is now rolled
• 3:00
  Speaker 2: by David Ellison, very deep pockets. His father, Larry, is
• 3:04
  Speaker 2: one of the richest people in the world. Oracle. David Ellison,
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: in taking over Paramount, is one of these guys who's
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: decided that now that Paramount is owning sixty minutes, excuse
• 3:18
  Speaker 2: me owning CBS, that I'm going to fix this problem
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: of leftist bias. It's bad business. Maybe if I can
• 3:28
  Speaker 2: redirect CBS, in particular CBS News to a more moderate
• 3:34
  Speaker 2: news organization and one that's premised on accuracy, I'll get
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: more viewers and make more money. So you're actually seeing
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: somebody try to take this challenge on and he has
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: the advantage of being very, very very rich. He can
• 3:52
  Speaker 2: write it out. So he got rid of the top
• 3:56
  Speaker 2: management at CBS News and hired very Wise to run
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: the organization. Barry Weiss was a former columnist for The
• 4:05
  Speaker 2: New York Times. She's kind of a moderate leftist, but
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: one of the few journalists who actually believes in objectivity
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: and fairness. She left The New York Times after objecting
• 4:19
  Speaker 2: to how the New York Times had you know, the
• 4:22
  Speaker 2: great journalistic tradition of the New York Times was just
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: scraped by becoming this house organ for leftism and covering
• 4:30
  Speaker 2: stories that clearly turned out to be lies, Russia collusion,
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: all of them. She went off to former own news
• 4:37
  Speaker 2: organization and made a lot of money running Free Press,
• 4:40
  Speaker 2: and that's who David Ellison picked to try to right
• 4:43
  Speaker 2: the ship at CBS News. The first thing that she
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: did is she dumped the people who ran the CBS
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: evening news and tried to put in a more moderate
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: anchor there. And now sixty minutes. Sixty minutes is the
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: biggest thing CBS News does, way bigger than their even newscast.
• 5:01
  Speaker 2: And sixty Minutes, which in its heyday was a great
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: news organization, may have been biased, but they broke lots
• 5:09
  Speaker 2: of stories. They did innovative treatments of things, and often
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: what they did is they did a story in which
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: they were sort of the contrarian. They would expose the
• 5:20
  Speaker 2: opposite side of what you might have felt was going on,
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: and in many instances stories that maybe liberals wouldn't like.
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: I'm talking the old Mike Wallace morally safer sort of
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: at Bradley days. But lately sixty minutes has become the
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: worst of the worst. They're obsessed with Trump. It's one
• 5:44
  Speaker 2: anti Trumps story after another after another after another, and often,
• 5:49
  Speaker 2: rather than showing the kind of skepticism that sixty minutes
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: was known for, buying into and pushing these narratives that
• 5:56
  Speaker 2: just turned out to be completely false, collusion among them.
• 6:02
  Speaker 2: And the reason, of course they've been doing this is
• 6:04
  Speaker 2: that the sixty minutes has gotten to be so big
• 6:06
  Speaker 2: and so powerful and such a money maker for CBS
• 6:09
  Speaker 2: that the people in there think their bleep doesn't smell.
• 6:11
  Speaker 2: They figure they can just get away with it, and
• 6:14
  Speaker 2: they're doing what they want to do, running a leftist
• 6:17
  Speaker 2: news organization, putting on bias stories. The problem, of course,
• 6:21
  Speaker 2: is while they're drawing good ratings in the universe of
• 6:26
  Speaker 2: the minuscule ratings that network television now gets. David Ellison
• 6:30
  Speaker 2: thinks that this is des destroying the reputation of the
• 6:33
  Speaker 2: whole news organization, and his mind, CBS News is as
• 6:36
  Speaker 2: bad as ABC News, which is as bad as NBC News.
• 6:40
  Speaker 2: It's an argument as to which is the worst. So
• 6:43
  Speaker 2: Barry Weiss running CBS News, is in charge now of
• 6:46
  Speaker 2: sixty minutes. There was a story that one of their reporters,
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: Suon Alfonso and her producers did on what's going on
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: in Ol Salvador. The conclusion that Barry Weiss reached what
• 7:00
  Speaker 2: it was is that it was completely biased and one sided,
• 7:03
  Speaker 2: and she spiked the story. By the way, in the media,
• 7:08
  Speaker 2: this happens all the time, for better and for worse.
• 7:13
  Speaker 2: Famous example, how many years ago now twelve fourteen years
• 7:18
  Speaker 2: NBC actually had the scoop on Harvey Weinstein. NBC Ronan
• 7:25
  Speaker 2: Ferrell said of Mia Farrell broke had the information, he
• 7:31
  Speaker 2: had it down, and NBC killed the story evidently because
• 7:38
  Speaker 2: of Weinstein's incredible cloud, so they handed up running the
• 7:42
  Speaker 2: story elsewhere. Obviously, the story shouldn't have been spiked, but
• 7:47
  Speaker 2: it's an indication that stories get spiked all the time.
• 7:50
  Speaker 2: In addition to that, there are legitimate reasons stories they spiked.
• 7:53
  Speaker 2: Sometimes editors just think you don't have the story, you
• 7:55
  Speaker 2: don't have enough basis for the allegations that you run.
• 8:00
  Speaker 2: I spike stories of my own all the time. I
• 8:02
  Speaker 2: just don't feel comfortable with it. So this again happens
• 8:05
  Speaker 2: all the time. In this instance, however, the sixty minutes
• 8:08
  Speaker 2: people felt, well, the story is not. The story makes
• 8:11
  Speaker 2: the Trump administration look bad. That's why they killed the story.
• 8:15
  Speaker 2: And in fact, the Trump people were objecting to the
• 8:18
  Speaker 2: story when it was in the works, feeling that the
• 8:20
  Speaker 2: story was completely biased. Barry Weiss said, this story's not balanced.
• 8:25
  Speaker 2: You don't have the other side in so she spiked
• 8:28
  Speaker 2: the story again. This happens in news organizations, and it
• 8:33
  Speaker 2: happens in companies all the time. They are all sorts
• 8:35
  Speaker 2: of somebody works for their company. They want to do
• 8:37
  Speaker 2: something in the boss and say no, right or wrong.
• 8:40
  Speaker 2: But of course you can't tell a leftist they can't
• 8:42
  Speaker 2: run a story that Trump doesn't like. So there's this
• 8:44
  Speaker 2: complete blow up from these people who are the employees
• 8:50
  Speaker 2: objecting to the manager, to the company. All right, that passes,
• 8:58
  Speaker 2: Time goes on. Berry White's decides that she needs to
• 9:01
  Speaker 2: get control of sixty Minutes, and that means she needs
• 9:03
  Speaker 2: to get rid of the hacks that were running the program.
• 9:07
  Speaker 2: The executive producer she puts in place, by the way,
• 9:11
  Speaker 2: a big time journalist who worked for a big leftist
• 9:15
  Speaker 2: news organization, but he had a reputation of being fair
• 9:18
  Speaker 2: over there. He came from Vanity Fair, Nick Billington, and
• 9:21
  Speaker 2: she puts him in charge of sixty Minutes, and the
• 9:24
  Speaker 2: staff is in a revolt because they're so fearful that
• 9:28
  Speaker 2: Billetin's not gonna let them do the kinds of stories
• 9:30
  Speaker 2: they want to do, leftist hack pieces. Now, they said, whoa,
• 9:34
  Speaker 2: you're getting in the way of journalistic integrity. There isn't
• 9:36
  Speaker 2: any journalistic integrity. When you hear leftist journalists talk about
• 9:39
  Speaker 2: journalist integrity is their ability to do whatever the hell
• 9:44
  Speaker 2: they want, no matter how inaccurate, misleading, or biased. So
• 9:49
  Speaker 2: there's a big blow up and they have a staff meeting,
• 9:52
  Speaker 2: Scott Pelly burnout. I mean, nobody who works knows who
• 9:58
  Speaker 2: works for these news organizations. Nobody knows who they are anymore. However,
• 10:02
  Speaker 2: you might know Pelly because he's been around forever. For
• 10:04
  Speaker 2: a while, he was the anchor of the CBS Evening News.
• 10:07
  Speaker 2: He's you could just there are certain you can breed
• 10:11
  Speaker 2: people wrong on the basis of their appearance, of the
• 10:13
  Speaker 2: way they carry themselves. I mean, you can't. Sometimes I'm wrong.
• 10:16
  Speaker 2: Sometimes I'm shocked when I look at somebody and this
• 10:19
  Speaker 2: is just a complete lefty and they turn out to
• 10:20
  Speaker 2: be more conservative than me. You can be wrong. I'm
• 10:23
  Speaker 2: almost convinced I'm not wrong about Scott Pelley he's a
• 10:32
  Speaker 2: blow dride, arrogant, sanctimonious leftist think. That's just how it
• 10:40
  Speaker 2: struck me as carrying himself. He's one of these guys.
• 10:42
  Speaker 2: He will never in his life have one hair that's
• 10:45
  Speaker 2: out of place. He raises a stink in this meeting
• 10:50
  Speaker 2: and insults billet In the new head of CBS, and
• 10:53
  Speaker 2: goes public with it, leaks all of the stuff, and
• 10:55
  Speaker 2: he just out of control. Barry Weise fires him, and
• 11:00
  Speaker 2: now sixty minutes is in turmoil. This is why it
• 11:09
  Speaker 2: is so hard to get rid of leftist bias in
• 11:12
  Speaker 2: news organizations. If you try to do it, you get
• 11:15
  Speaker 2: a revolt from all of the people who are there.
• 11:19
  Speaker 2: And it's very, very hard then to write these ships
• 11:23
  Speaker 2: because if you get rid of all the bias leftist reporters,
• 11:26
  Speaker 2: there's no reporters left. As I said many years ago,
• 11:31
  Speaker 2: Fox hired them all. Every reporter who was presentable and
• 11:34
  Speaker 2: talented at the field Fox hired that wasn't a leftist
• 11:38
  Speaker 2: bias journalist. Fox hired them all up, so that no,
• 11:41
  Speaker 2: but there's nobody left. This will be interesting to see
• 11:48
  Speaker 2: how it plays out if Ellison sticks to his guns,
• 11:53
  Speaker 2: and that means two years of this, they'll end up
• 11:56
  Speaker 2: with a better product, and I think there will be
• 12:00
  Speaker 2: some recovery for CBS News. I've said forever that there
• 12:03
  Speaker 2: is a market out there for a news organization that
• 12:06
  Speaker 2: isn't right, isn't left, but actually covers the news the
• 12:10
  Speaker 2: way the news has been used to be covered all
• 12:12
  Speaker 2: the time, fair aggressive. You know, as I say, Barry
• 12:16
  Speaker 2: Wisse who runs CBS, and she's not a conservative, She's
• 12:19
  Speaker 2: actually a liberal. She's also somebody though that is a
• 12:22
  Speaker 2: more moderate liberal and believes in journalistic integrity. Now, Jay Weber,
• 12:29
  Speaker 2: who also does a podcast right here and conveniently releases
• 12:33
  Speaker 2: his podcast on the days that I don't release mine,
• 12:36
  Speaker 2: You think that there's like coordination in that. Probably well,
• 12:41
  Speaker 2: there is works out for both those anyway. Who is
• 12:45
  Speaker 2: the longtime morning host at WIS and Radio wires the
• 12:48
  Speaker 2: longtime afternoons. Jay Webber has nailed this put out a
• 12:52
  Speaker 2: post on accent. I believe he common in his podcast,
• 12:55
  Speaker 2: Pelly is at old fart who was looking to retire.
• 13:00
  Speaker 2: Rather than just retire, he goes out in a blaze
• 13:02
  Speaker 2: of glory so he can be a hero to all
• 13:05
  Speaker 2: of the other left wing journalists and then now go
• 13:08
  Speaker 2: out there and make the media tour, write the book,
• 13:10
  Speaker 2: be interviewed at MSNB, save he interviewed and see it in,
• 13:14
  Speaker 2: go out there and start a leftist podcast, get hired
• 13:17
  Speaker 2: by some leftist thing tank to front something or another,
• 13:20
  Speaker 2: and so on. He's looking for an exit strategy. So
• 13:23
  Speaker 2: what he does is he creates this whole blow up
• 13:26
  Speaker 2: to force them to fire him so he can now
• 13:28
  Speaker 2: go out as this fake martyr. Next story, I mentioned
• 13:37
  Speaker 2: the hearing that was held yesterday in Washington by Senator
• 13:40
  Speaker 2: Ron Johnson, who's attempting to draw attention to the growing
• 13:44
  Speaker 2: evidence from many medical experts of the massive problems that
• 13:50
  Speaker 2: people are facing if they were vaccinated with the COVID
• 13:52
  Speaker 2: nineteen vaccine. The one that's been widely known and is
• 13:58
  Speaker 2: now grudgingly acknowledged by the health care establishment is lots
• 14:02
  Speaker 2: of heart problems, serious problems being myocarditis and paracarditis, but
• 14:08
  Speaker 2: also more common not quite as serious, but still a
• 14:12
  Speaker 2: serious condition, irregularities, irregular heartbeat, fast heartbeat, apem, etc. That's
• 14:19
  Speaker 2: been rather widely known, and it's now even out there
• 14:21
  Speaker 2: and accepted in the medical community. It's not talked about
• 14:25
  Speaker 2: a lot by the news media because it would mean
• 14:27
  Speaker 2: that they would have to acknowledge that there was a
• 14:29
  Speaker 2: downside of these vaccines. The medical establishment still says, but
• 14:34
  Speaker 2: the benefits of the vaccine still outweighed the chance that
• 14:36
  Speaker 2: you'd be one of the few that got this side effect. Whatever.
• 14:41
  Speaker 2: We found, however, that the side effect tends to occur
• 14:44
  Speaker 2: most in younger, healthier people because hyping up their immune
• 14:48
  Speaker 2: systems through everything else out of whack. The COVID vaccine
• 14:51
  Speaker 2: seems to have created fewer problems with the frail and
• 14:54
  Speaker 2: elderly because their immune systems are weak in the first place.
• 14:58
  Speaker 2: But for those who already had vigor immune systems, putting
• 15:02
  Speaker 2: them on almost literally steroids is what's created this negative response,
• 15:06
  Speaker 2: and pathetically, those are the people who least needed the
• 15:10
  Speaker 2: COVID vaccine. I think to me now the evidence is
• 15:12
  Speaker 2: overwhelming that unless you're one of those people that just
• 15:15
  Speaker 2: had a lot of other pre existing conditions weighed heart problems,
• 15:18
  Speaker 2: et cetera, that if you're under the age of fifty,
• 15:22
  Speaker 2: you were far better off not getting the COVID vaccine.
• 15:24
  Speaker 2: Fifty to seventy, fifty to fifty, maybe seventy or over.
• 15:29
  Speaker 2: I think that the evidence is pretty clear that the
• 15:31
  Speaker 2: COVID vaccine was a good bet, but we're not going
• 15:34
  Speaker 2: to know that for sure, as I've said all along,
• 15:36
  Speaker 2: until twenty years after all of this came down. In
• 15:38
  Speaker 2: the meantime, Ron Johnson is trying to draw attention tow
• 15:42
  Speaker 2: to the fact that we're now the vaccine has now
• 15:44
  Speaker 2: been out for five years, and people have beginning the
• 15:47
  Speaker 2: boosters and all of that in the interim the problems
• 15:50
  Speaker 2: that are developing with some people not The clear thing
• 15:52
  Speaker 2: is most people aren't getting these things, but some of
• 15:54
  Speaker 2: them are, but nobody wants to focus on it. And
• 15:57
  Speaker 2: Johnson an initiative the heart issue. Hunsen has brought in
• 16:01
  Speaker 2: several medical experts. These are mds, people who have done research,
• 16:05
  Speaker 2: some of it published peer reviewed, but just blacked out
• 16:10
  Speaker 2: for the media because the media, for whatever reason, is
• 16:13
  Speaker 2: decided to get in the sack with COVID and Moderna
• 16:15
  Speaker 2: and Johnson and Johnson in particular. I said, COVID, Pfizer
• 16:19
  Speaker 2: and Moderna, and to some extent Johnson and Johnson. Johnson
• 16:22
  Speaker 2: and Johnson's vaccine was not an mRNA vaccine. The Pfizer
• 16:26
  Speaker 2: and Moderna once were. And this whole thing in which
• 16:29
  Speaker 2: the media and the drug companies have just developed this
• 16:33
  Speaker 2: almost sexual relationship. Is so bizarre to me because the
• 16:37
  Speaker 2: media used to challenge the big, big pharmam Let me
• 16:43
  Speaker 2: quote from the report. The Epoch Times is one of
• 16:45
  Speaker 2: the few journalistic news organizations that's willing to go after
• 16:48
  Speaker 2: some of these sacred calls. And for many in the media,
• 16:50
  Speaker 2: because they portrayed anyone who tried to draw any attention
• 16:53
  Speaker 2: to the downsides of COVID as a quack. They just
• 16:55
  Speaker 2: don't want to cover these stories because it would mean
• 16:57
  Speaker 2: they would have to admit that they were wrong. Let
• 17:02
  Speaker 2: me quote from the story. Doctor Angus Dalgiche, professor emeritus
• 17:07
  Speaker 2: of oncology at the University of London, told a hearing
• 17:10
  Speaker 2: in Washington that he witnessed patients unexpectedly develop cancer after
• 17:15
  Speaker 2: receiving COVID nineteen vaccines built with mRNA technology. Quote. I
• 17:20
  Speaker 2: have no doubt in my mind that the mRNA vaccine
• 17:23
  Speaker 2: likely played a significant role in the development of these
• 17:26
  Speaker 2: unexpected cancers. Doctor Waffique Elderry, director of Brown University's Lagarettic
• 17:32
  Speaker 2: Cancer Center, said during the hearing that he has found
• 17:35
  Speaker 2: the spike protein found in both COVID nineteen and COVID
• 17:38
  Speaker 2: nineteen vaccination could reduce the ability to activate genes involved
• 17:43
  Speaker 2: in suppressing cancer. Now, interestingly, these people opened mind, and
• 17:47
  Speaker 2: he's saying the spike protein, that's one of the things
• 17:50
  Speaker 2: that happens when you get covid, but also it's in
• 17:52
  Speaker 2: the vaccine. It's an attempt to mimic the spike protein
• 17:56
  Speaker 2: from actual covid in an attempt to get your body
• 17:59
  Speaker 2: to develop the immune system to fight it off. He
• 18:02
  Speaker 2: said that that spike protein, both in the vaccine and
• 18:05
  Speaker 2: in COVID itself, seems to reduce the ability of the
• 18:11
  Speaker 2: genes that we have that fight off cancer. Elderry and
• 18:16
  Speaker 2: a colleague, in a January paper, by the way, peer reviewed,
• 18:19
  Speaker 2: listed dozens of publications describing different types of cancer appearing
• 18:24
  Speaker 2: shortly after COVID nineteen vaccination or infection. Several months after,
• 18:29
  Speaker 2: they told the Federal Vaccine Committee that safety issues with
• 18:32
  Speaker 2: the vaccine could include cancer, with cancer mechanisms being one
• 18:36
  Speaker 2: of the areas that needed further explanation, the committee advised
• 18:40
  Speaker 2: the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention to scale back
• 18:43
  Speaker 2: recommendations for COVID nineteen vaccination. The CDC did so, but
• 18:48
  Speaker 2: that update was blocked in March by a federal judge
• 18:50
  Speaker 2: and appeal is pending. Now, let me interject, the CDC,
• 18:53
  Speaker 2: now part of Trompe administration, has backed off on some
• 18:57
  Speaker 2: of the guidance, as you know, on the COVID vaccine.
• 19:00
  Speaker 2: A federal court is telling him they can't do that.
• 19:05
  Speaker 2: You see the insanity of this, And it's all, well,
• 19:07
  Speaker 2: the CDC is not legitimate anymore because it's Trump and
• 19:10
  Speaker 2: RFK at all. So now the growing evidence is in
• 19:14
  Speaker 2: the CDC in better hands. They're not saying don't get
• 19:17
  Speaker 2: the vaccine. They're just saying it may not be optimal
• 19:20
  Speaker 2: in certain instances for certain people, and a judge is
• 19:23
  Speaker 2: like blocking them from issuing that. A judge quote looking
• 19:29
  Speaker 2: at the totality of up to date evidence and what
• 19:31
  Speaker 2: you've heard from eminent witnesses today, and in my view,
• 19:34
  Speaker 2: millions of Americans and millions more across the world may
• 19:38
  Speaker 2: be in clear and present danger of suffering premature cardiovascular
• 19:42
  Speaker 2: disease and cancer. Doctor Rasim Malhotra, a British cardiologist, said
• 19:47
  Speaker 2: during the hearing on Wednesday. Senator Ron Johnson, Wisconsin, heroic
• 19:52
  Speaker 2: chairman of the Senate Permanent Committee, is permanent Subcommittee on
• 19:54
  Speaker 2: Investigations hosted the hearings. John Said, a frequent critic of
• 19:57
  Speaker 2: Hope COVID nineteen vaccine, said it was important not to
• 20:00
  Speaker 2: wait for definitive proof to warn the public about possible
• 20:03
  Speaker 2: dangers associated with the vaccine. There is just a paranoia
• 20:19
  Speaker 2: about learning the truth about these vaccines. And I'm going
• 20:22
  Speaker 2: to also suggests there's been a paranoia from the anti
• 20:24
  Speaker 2: vaccers as well. They don't want to hear anything that
• 20:27
  Speaker 2: the vaccines might have helped, and the people opposed they
• 20:31
  Speaker 2: don't want to hear anything that the vaccines might have backfired.
• 20:35
  Speaker 2: Everybody has just held banned on being proven correct, rather than,
• 20:38
  Speaker 2: as I've been argued for, just go into this with
• 20:41
  Speaker 2: unbiased eyes and try to learn and follow the evidence.
• 20:43
  Speaker 2: We do it with everything else at healthcare. Remember it
• 20:47
  Speaker 2: was the scientific community that invented transmats because they thought
• 20:51
  Speaker 2: they were healthy. Well, we found out that was a disaster.
• 20:54
  Speaker 2: But nobody's really resistant to that information. Okay, we fouled
• 20:58
  Speaker 2: out it was a disaster. Don't eat trans fats anymore.
• 21:03
  Speaker 2: It's not the end of the world to take new
• 21:05
  Speaker 2: information and say what we believed before is rag. I
• 21:10
  Speaker 2: think the same thing is going on with dietary fat.
• 21:13
  Speaker 2: We've been lectured people forever and ever for decades that
• 21:16
  Speaker 2: fat is bad. I think the growing indication is that
• 21:22
  Speaker 2: fat isn't bad for you at all. Anything in excess
• 21:25
  Speaker 2: is bad, even protein in excess is bad. The overwhelming evidence, however,
• 21:31
  Speaker 2: is is that it's sugars that are bad. Added sugars,
• 21:35
  Speaker 2: reprocessed foods, refined foods, All of that crap, mostly carbs,
• 21:40
  Speaker 2: is bad. Fats may be a neutral and certainly help
• 21:43
  Speaker 2: in certain areas because most things that are fats also
• 21:45
  Speaker 2: contain protein, and protein is good. Eventually the entire medical
• 21:52
  Speaker 2: community will come around on this. Almost all the cardiologists
• 21:55
  Speaker 2: are already on it. And when we come around, oky fine.
• 22:00
  Speaker 2: We have learned. They used to think the Earth was
• 22:04
  Speaker 2: flat some dope still do. We got better information. But
• 22:10
  Speaker 2: the whole thing on COVID, they are so vested that
• 22:13
  Speaker 2: Fauci was a saint, that the people who were using
• 22:16
  Speaker 2: their own experience and intuition, who realized that some of
• 22:20
  Speaker 2: this stuff was wrong, and further that Fauci was biased
• 22:23
  Speaker 2: because he was trying to cover up his role in
• 22:25
  Speaker 2: developing the COVID vaccine by funding the research in the
• 22:28
  Speaker 2: Wuhan lab. Therefore he's the last person in the world. Also,
• 22:32
  Speaker 2: we certainly learned that most people in public health are
• 22:35
  Speaker 2: inept hacks who just regurgitate the puke that somebody else
• 22:39
  Speaker 2: sent them. Okay, here comes some puke from the CDC
• 22:43
  Speaker 2: that's just worthless. We puke it out at the state level,
• 22:46
  Speaker 2: so it goes to the county level and we repuke
• 22:48
  Speaker 2: the same puke. There are gonna be some people that
• 22:52
  Speaker 2: are bothered by the fact that they used the word
• 22:54
  Speaker 2: puke repeatedly. I admit I do it Deliberately's turn her
• 23:00
  Speaker 2: attention to another story, the quality of Democrat candidates running
• 23:04
  Speaker 2: for office this year. I mean, there's just a number
• 23:09
  Speaker 2: of them that you would remember. David Duke. David Duke
• 23:15
  Speaker 2: was a klansman. He said he wasn't in the Klan anymore,
• 23:19
  Speaker 2: but he's a former klansman. Ran for governor of Louisiana,
• 23:24
  Speaker 2: won the Republican nomination. The Democrat governor was an out
• 23:29
  Speaker 2: and out crook. By the way, he was such a
• 23:32
  Speaker 2: brazen crook that you could actually find him likable. Edwin Edwards.
• 23:36
  Speaker 2: Louisiana is a history of being one of the most
• 23:38
  Speaker 2: corrupt States. Ever, David Duke got the Republican nomination. He's
• 23:44
  Speaker 2: a klansman. Every credible Republican in America disavowed him and
• 23:50
  Speaker 2: endorsed the corrupt Democrat Edwin Edwards, because Duke was a klansman.
• 23:55
  Speaker 2: It was he was. He was beyond what is exct
• 24:00
  Speaker 2: deceptible on the Democrat Party. Right now, however, there is
• 24:04
  Speaker 2: no level of unacceptability. All sorts of things that would
• 24:07
  Speaker 2: have disqualified you were made you a fringe candidate. They're
• 24:10
  Speaker 2: fine with. You've got a nazi running for the Senate
• 24:14
  Speaker 2: in Maine, and it's a big race because Maine is
• 24:17
  Speaker 2: a Saint in which they think they can The Republican
• 24:19
  Speaker 2: incumbent there, Susan Collins, has been hanging on by her
• 24:23
  Speaker 2: fingernails forever. Maine's a Democrat state. Collins is. She's a
• 24:28
  Speaker 2: Rhino Republican. But it's better than an actual Democrat because
• 24:31
  Speaker 2: in the end, Collins is with the Republicans more often
• 24:33
  Speaker 2: than not. Well, the Democrats are trying to regain the seat.
• 24:36
  Speaker 2: They got this guy, he's a nazi, got a swastika
• 24:40
  Speaker 2: tattooed on himself, and now they found all sorts of
• 24:44
  Speaker 2: new things in his background, and his big thing is
• 24:46
  Speaker 2: he's just always railing against corporations. There's a new report
• 24:50
  Speaker 2: out now about the amount of money that he has
• 24:53
  Speaker 2: gotten over the years, and in particular his campaign, he's
• 24:56
  Speaker 2: bankrolled by big Pharma and by other major finande and
• 25:00
  Speaker 2: big financial institutions. See the pharmaceutical companies. Know you can
• 25:04
  Speaker 2: buy off Democrats and some Republican candidates. So the guy
• 25:09
  Speaker 2: will talk vaguely about being against the big corporations. When
• 25:14
  Speaker 2: he gets in the Senate, he'll vote and do everything
• 25:16
  Speaker 2: the big farmer wants, greenlight this, and so forth and
• 25:18
  Speaker 2: so on. So there's him. Then in Wisconsin, the two
• 25:23
  Speaker 2: front running candidates for governor are both dead beats, both
• 25:27
  Speaker 2: of them. We just learned this week that Francesca Hang
• 25:31
  Speaker 2: is being sued by our credit card company thirty thousand
• 25:34
  Speaker 2: dollars in debt. It's been a run forever and she
• 25:35
  Speaker 2: doesn't pay it off. Pretty smart person's out there in Madison.
• 25:40
  Speaker 2: She's in the state legislature, more than enough income. But
• 25:43
  Speaker 2: she's a Marx and I shouldn't have to pay this.
• 25:46
  Speaker 2: These big evil corporations that make us pay for stuff,
• 25:48
  Speaker 2: I shouldn't have to pay it. And then you've got
• 25:51
  Speaker 2: Mandela Bards, longtime deadbeat, sued by his condo association for
• 25:56
  Speaker 2: not paying his homeowner's fees's delinquid on his property tat
• 26:01
  Speaker 2: wit a year without a driver's license. Vague on that,
• 26:05
  Speaker 2: but he also had some citations. It's possibly he didn't
• 26:09
  Speaker 2: pay his tickets. It might have been other reasons why
• 26:11
  Speaker 2: he didn't have a driver's license, like just wanting to
• 26:14
  Speaker 2: have the state police drive him back and forth between
• 26:16
  Speaker 2: Milwaukee and Madison. Two deadbeats in the past. I mean,
• 26:22
  Speaker 2: I still think that a Republican candidate with this kind
• 26:26
  Speaker 2: of thing. I'm not talking here about business failures. This
• 26:29
  Speaker 2: can happen to a lot of people. You go into
• 26:31
  Speaker 2: a business and you try to be try this, that
• 26:34
  Speaker 2: or the other thing. You might get a failure. I'm
• 26:35
  Speaker 2: talking abou people just don't pay the bills, and then
• 26:42
  Speaker 2: we've got a new one. They held the primary, the
• 26:46
  Speaker 2: Democratic primary number of states this week. New Jersey was
• 26:49
  Speaker 2: one of them. There's a congressional district in New Jersey
• 26:52
  Speaker 2: in which there were like a zillion Democrats in the ballot.
• 26:54
  Speaker 2: It's an open seat. The guy who won the nomination
• 26:58
  Speaker 2: may well be a terrorist. He has direct links to
• 27:06
  Speaker 2: the mastermind behind the nineteen ninety three World Trade Center bombing.
• 27:10
  Speaker 2: Remember I said nineteen ninety three, it's remarkable how many
• 27:13
  Speaker 2: people forget this one. In nineteen ninety three, they planted
• 27:19
  Speaker 2: bombs in the elevator at the World Trade Center and
• 27:21
  Speaker 2: a lot of damage was done, people were harmed. It
• 27:26
  Speaker 2: was the first attempt to bring down the towers. It
• 27:28
  Speaker 2: didn't knock them down, but eight years later they got them.
• 27:32
  Speaker 2: The guy who was the mastermind behind that, his longtime
• 27:39
  Speaker 2: supporter and close associate, is the guy who just won
• 27:42
  Speaker 2: the Democrat primary in this house race in New Jersey.
• 27:49
  Speaker 2: Let me quote from Fox News' report. A Democrat with
• 27:52
  Speaker 2: terroriortized linked to the nineteen ninety three World Trade Center
• 27:54
  Speaker 2: bombing is on track to become one of New Jersey's
• 27:57
  Speaker 2: next congressmen. Adam Hamawi won a crowded Democratic primary in
• 28:01
  Speaker 2: New Jersey's twelfth district and is heavily favored to win
• 28:03
  Speaker 2: the general election in November. The victory is renewing scrutiny
• 28:07
  Speaker 2: of Hamaway's past relationship with Omar abdel Rakhman aka the
• 28:12
  Speaker 2: Blind Sheikh, the radical cleric convicted of terrorism related charges
• 28:16
  Speaker 2: whose followers carried out the nineteen ninety three World Trade
• 28:19
  Speaker 2: Center bombing. Hamawi's critics say voters deserve answers about why
• 28:23
  Speaker 2: a future lawmaker chose to support a figure at the
• 28:26
  Speaker 2: center of one of America's most infamous terrorism cases. Now
• 28:30
  Speaker 2: here's a post on x from the Final Telegraph. It's
• 28:34
  Speaker 2: a conservative site quote, and I think they summarize this perfectly.
• 28:40
  Speaker 2: At what's happening here with the hate America crowd that's
• 28:43
  Speaker 2: overwhelmingly taken over the Democrat party quote. The primary victory
• 28:47
  Speaker 2: of a candidate linked to the nineteen ninety three World
• 28:49
  Speaker 2: Trade Center bombing network is the predictable endgame of progressive
• 28:55
  Speaker 2: identity politics. The modern left is successfully institutioned a lot
• 29:00
  Speaker 2: a form of moral pathology where vetting is decried as
• 29:05
  Speaker 2: bigotry and self preservation is labeled as phobia. Oh that's
• 29:11
  Speaker 2: great writing. I'll finish it in a minute, but I
• 29:13
  Speaker 2: want to now interject where vetting is described as vake bigotry?
• 29:17
  Speaker 2: What is vetting? You know where the term vetting comes from?
• 29:20
  Speaker 2: Nobody does. I've explained it a couple of Vetting is
• 29:24
  Speaker 2: one of those terms that came from horse racing way
• 29:26
  Speaker 2: back in the day. When you buy a horse, you
• 29:28
  Speaker 2: have a veterin area to do a vet inspection. So
• 29:30
  Speaker 2: that's became a verb vetting. And now when we say
• 29:34
  Speaker 2: we vet things out, it comes back from having a
• 29:36
  Speaker 2: vet checkout an animal before you anyway, candidate runs for office,
• 29:42
  Speaker 2: basically what the media used to do and what people
• 29:45
  Speaker 2: used to do. You look at the background, they have
• 29:47
  Speaker 2: skeletons in the closet. Are the things that we need
• 29:49
  Speaker 2: to know about? Now when you try to do this
• 29:52
  Speaker 2: vetting and to say a Muslim, that's bigotry. Why are
• 29:56
  Speaker 2: you looking into that? Well, why should a Muslim be
• 29:59
  Speaker 2: able to dodge the same scrutiny as any other person
• 30:02
  Speaker 2: who may have done a bunch of rotten things. In
• 30:04
  Speaker 2: the second part of it self, preservation is labeled as phobia.
• 30:09
  Speaker 2: In other words, Okay, this is a dangerous person. We
• 30:15
  Speaker 2: shouldn't put monsters like this, people who are part of
• 30:19
  Speaker 2: terrorsts networks, we shouldn't let them be in government. Why
• 30:23
  Speaker 2: that's a phobia. So, in other words, we can't focus
• 30:27
  Speaker 2: on all of the terrible things would say ilan Omar,
• 30:34
  Speaker 2: or even look into the fact that she appeared to
• 30:37
  Speaker 2: get into the United States by marrying her own brother
• 30:41
  Speaker 2: that's a phobia to look into that you're afraid of Muslims. So,
• 30:45
  Speaker 2: in other words, our attempt to preserve ourselves by not
• 30:48
  Speaker 2: having bad people, and that's phobic finishing off their post.
• 30:52
  Speaker 2: When an entire political apparatus prioritizes globalist virtue over national security,
• 30:59
  Speaker 2: it invites open subversion. Historically, civilization's fracture when elites actively
• 31:06
  Speaker 2: reward proximity to hostile forces, this represents a literal, ongoing
• 31:13
  Speaker 2: liquidation of Western civic standards, completely validating your diagnosis of
• 31:19
  Speaker 2: terminal civilizational collapse. You could certainly see the same thing
• 31:24
  Speaker 2: happening in Britain, where police officers abetted the killing of
• 31:27
  Speaker 2: an eighteen year old who was stabbed nine times and
• 31:32
  Speaker 2: jumped on him and held him down because of allegations
• 31:34
  Speaker 2: he made a racial slur and felt he was the
• 31:37
  Speaker 2: bad guy, even though there he was bleeding to death
• 31:39
  Speaker 2: from stab wounds. I think you can certainly see the
• 31:42
  Speaker 2: same thing with the anti ICE rallies in the United States.
• 31:45
  Speaker 2: Here's Ice targeting illegals who are in this country who
• 31:49
  Speaker 2: have committed separate crimes, and there are people trying to
• 31:53
  Speaker 2: harass Ice, trying to keep these rotten people in our country.
• 31:59
  Speaker 2: And I'm not referring here to people that are simply
• 32:02
  Speaker 2: here illegally, ICE is going after them. But when many
• 32:06
  Speaker 2: of the targets of the ICE raids are in fact criminals, like,
• 32:11
  Speaker 2: for example, the actions of former Milwaukee County Circuit Judge
• 32:14
  Speaker 2: Hanna Dugan, who's now trying to get her conviction overturned.
• 32:17
  Speaker 2: The guy that she was protecting was a crook in
• 32:21
  Speaker 2: addition to being an illegal alien. When you see people
• 32:25
  Speaker 2: that are rallying to keep crooks in your country who
• 32:28
  Speaker 2: aren't even supposed to be here in the first place,
• 32:30
  Speaker 2: of course, it means it's a threat to your civilization.
• 32:33
  Speaker 2: And the people who vote for the political party that
• 32:35
  Speaker 2: is doing this are essentially voting in favor of national suicide.
• 32:46
  Speaker 2: I'm going to roll here today. These last two podcasts
• 32:49
  Speaker 2: have been really good. We've got a lot more coming.
• 32:51
  Speaker 2: Continuing on the politics scene, there's still stalled at about
• 32:54
  Speaker 2: sixty five percent of the vote counted in California. I'm
• 32:57
  Speaker 2: doing this podcast on Thursday. The election was By the way,
• 33:01
  Speaker 2: it's gonna take two weeks. That's what Usually it doesn't
• 33:04
  Speaker 2: matter that California takes two weeks because the Democrats always
• 33:08
  Speaker 2: win the state, and it's never closed, so you wait
• 33:11
  Speaker 2: two weeks just to find out how much they won by.
• 33:14
  Speaker 2: But in the primary elections where Democrats run against Republicans,
• 33:18
  Speaker 2: it's a one ballot thing, and some of these races
• 33:20
  Speaker 2: are close. It's unbelievable. I made the contrast on a
• 33:25
  Speaker 2: podcast earlier this week, Marxism versus Capitalism. Now, let's take
• 33:30
  Speaker 2: two states here. You know which states, and you know
• 33:33
  Speaker 2: this is There may be one that's even faster, But
• 33:37
  Speaker 2: in my experience, the state that counts its ballots the
• 33:39
  Speaker 2: fastest now is Florida. They made a lot of reforms
• 33:44
  Speaker 2: after two thousand. Remember Bush v. Gore the Hanging Chads,
• 33:47
  Speaker 2: in which it took him forever to figure out who
• 33:49
  Speaker 2: won the close election and it went to the Supreme Court.
• 33:52
  Speaker 2: Since then there was a bipartisan effort. Florida has been
• 33:55
  Speaker 2: had more Republican governors than the Democrats, but both sides
• 33:58
  Speaker 2: got on board on this streamline. The ballot counting thing.
• 34:01
  Speaker 2: All the ballots have to be in by election day,
• 34:03
  Speaker 2: whether they be mail in or absentee or whatever, and
• 34:06
  Speaker 2: you immediately begin the counting of them. The counting proceeds
• 34:09
  Speaker 2: electronically Florida is usually at ninety eight ninety nine percent
• 34:13
  Speaker 2: by three hours. The big cities Miami, Tampa, Orlando, and
• 34:18
  Speaker 2: the little small towns up on the panel, all of
• 34:20
  Speaker 2: them they instantly report and their ad one hundred percent
• 34:24
  Speaker 2: of the vote. Their election laws aren't that different from California.
• 34:28
  Speaker 2: California is a leftist state. They can't do anything right.
• 34:33
  Speaker 2: In between California, which takes two weeks in Florida, which
• 34:36
  Speaker 2: takes three hours, is Wisconsin. Predictably, because we're a swing state,
• 34:41
  Speaker 2: our vote counting isn't as pathetic as California, but it's
• 34:44
  Speaker 2: nowhere near as good as Florida. There we are at
• 34:48
  Speaker 2: two and three o'clock in the morning, and Central count
• 34:50
  Speaker 2: in Milwaukee is farting around getting around accounting all of
• 34:54
  Speaker 2: the absentee ballots, which of course they're overwhelmingly democratic, dump
• 34:57
  Speaker 2: them all in at three in the morning and create
• 34:59
  Speaker 2: tremendous distrust. We've got the FBI now investigating in Milwaukee
• 35:04
  Speaker 2: over the misplaced flash drive on election night in twenty twenty,
• 35:09
  Speaker 2: and they would say you shouldn't look into this. Of
• 35:11
  Speaker 2: course they should look into this. You either had totally
• 35:14
  Speaker 2: incompetent hacks at the election commission. You know, you had
• 35:18
  Speaker 2: the Election Commission chairman, and I don't think she was
• 35:21
  Speaker 2: doing anything deliberately wrong here, but she certainly screwed up.
• 35:26
  Speaker 2: She left one of the flash drives hanging behind in
• 35:29
  Speaker 2: a computer. Well, of course you ought to investigate if
• 35:31
  Speaker 2: that ought, if that was mishandled, and if there were
• 35:34
  Speaker 2: police officers who saw it standing there and didn't take
• 35:37
  Speaker 2: immediate action, they should be interrogated. And if an election
• 35:42
  Speaker 2: official id, even through carelessness, mishandled election materials and leave
• 35:47
  Speaker 2: them untended, the potential for criminal charges is certainly available. Nonetheless,
• 35:52
  Speaker 2: this is the problem that we have with our elections
• 35:54
  Speaker 2: in Wisconsin. Some of our counties, and you can just
• 35:57
  Speaker 2: go in on the reporting. Some counties take forever and
• 36:01
  Speaker 2: others are really fast, and it isn't politically You know
• 36:05
  Speaker 2: which one of the fastest counties in Wisconsin get one
• 36:07
  Speaker 2: hundred percent in Dane County. That proves you can do
• 36:11
  Speaker 2: it in one of the slowest Milwaukee County. Whatever. The
• 36:16
  Speaker 2: opposite of wharf speed is molasses crawl speed. Sloth like
• 36:21
  Speaker 2: is Racine County. They take forever and ever and ever.
• 36:25
  Speaker 2: There's no rhyme to reason behind why one county is
• 36:27
  Speaker 2: fast and one county is slow, but we're usually resolved
• 36:31
  Speaker 2: at three in the morning. And the last counties that
• 36:33
  Speaker 2: come in invariably are Democratic counties. And again it's not
• 36:36
  Speaker 2: entirely a plot because, as I say, Madison Dane County,
• 36:38
  Speaker 2: they get him real fast, but Milwaukee takes forever. In
• 36:45
  Speaker 2: this day and age, you ought to be able to
• 36:46
  Speaker 2: get the ballots counted in three hours. It's not that hired,
• 36:52
  Speaker 2: especially when many of the ballots are voted by via
• 36:55
  Speaker 2: machine where they're read by these raiders. You have it
• 36:59
  Speaker 2: in yet tabul lee him, release it. California can't do
• 37:05
  Speaker 2: one damn thing right. Yet nobody in California seems to
• 37:11
  Speaker 2: learn and figure out we used to be one of
• 37:14
  Speaker 2: the greatest days. This is paradise out here, and now
• 37:17
  Speaker 2: we're a hell hole that can't do a damn thing.
• 37:19
  Speaker 2: It might have something to do with the policies that
• 37:22
  Speaker 2: we follow and the idiot leftists we elect. Look at
• 37:26
  Speaker 2: the low caliber of Democrat that's come out of California.
• 37:30
  Speaker 2: You think, given the fact that sixty million people live
• 37:32
  Speaker 2: there and almost all of them are Democrats, the Democrats
• 37:34
  Speaker 2: would at least have the best Democrats because they got
• 37:36
  Speaker 2: somebody to pick from. I mean Delaware, which gave us
• 37:39
  Speaker 2: Joe Biden has an excuse. It's like nine people that
• 37:41
  Speaker 2: live in that state, so there are many to choose them.
• 37:44
  Speaker 2: So of course Biden gets out of how Kamala Harris,
• 37:48
  Speaker 2: Nancy Pelosi, Newsom, Eric Swallwell, Katie Porter, Hack on top
• 37:56
  Speaker 2: of Hack, on top of that. I remember when I
• 37:58
  Speaker 2: was a kid, we used to think that Yourry Brown
• 38:00
  Speaker 2: was weird, which he was weird, but boy he was smart.
• 38:03
  Speaker 2: He is innovative, outside the box, thinker, weird as can
• 38:07
  Speaker 2: be Jerry Brown's intellect. Dwarf said of the either blow
• 38:14
  Speaker 2: dride morons, Newsome stupid twits, Kamala or sort of smart
• 38:23
  Speaker 2: go along to get along, Marxist enablers Pelosi and without
• 38:31
  Speaker 2: regard to their ideology and their Marxism, they can't do
• 38:34
  Speaker 2: anything right. They can't count the votes. The longer anything
• 38:39
  Speaker 2: like this takes, the greater the potential for fraud. They're
• 38:43
  Speaker 2: still counting the votes. What does that tell you? The
• 38:46
  Speaker 2: longer they're taking doing it, the greater the opportunity to
• 38:52
  Speaker 2: commit fraud with it. Now of this, I didn't done
• 38:55
  Speaker 2: yesterday's podcast analyze the blow up between Trump and Israel.
• 38:59
  Speaker 2: First of all, you're wondering, how did we know about this?
• 39:03
  Speaker 2: Trump gets on the blower with net and Yahoo. I mean,
• 39:06
  Speaker 2: there's aids to both that are sitting in the room.
• 39:10
  Speaker 2: We found out that Trump cussed out. Babe. I'm just
• 39:15
  Speaker 2: telling you, I preach this forever. Ask yourself why something's
• 39:18
  Speaker 2: in the news, And I'm telling you I don't think
• 39:20
  Speaker 2: anybody does it. It's just not a natural thing for
• 39:24
  Speaker 2: people to question why they're seeing something they're seeing. I
• 39:28
  Speaker 2: can't help myself. I do it all the time. Part
• 39:32
  Speaker 2: of it is just in horse racing, why they enter
• 39:34
  Speaker 2: this horse in this race? Why they put blinkers on?
• 39:37
  Speaker 2: Why are they shortening them up? You need to understand
• 39:40
  Speaker 2: the why because it helps you understand then what the
• 39:42
  Speaker 2: what is whether or not something will work. How come
• 39:46
  Speaker 2: this horse only has three workouts and coming off a
• 39:48
  Speaker 2: long layoff. Did they have the workouts off crack, whether
• 39:51
  Speaker 2: some workouts hidden, or are they just giving the horse
• 39:53
  Speaker 2: the race. He's not going to do well in this race,
• 39:55
  Speaker 2: but they're using it too advansive. It's just you're just
• 39:57
  Speaker 2: drilled to the why. Why why why? Why?
• 39:59
  Speaker 1: Why? Wye?
• 40:00
  Speaker 2: Why? Why do we know about this. I'm sure world
• 40:04
  Speaker 2: leaders have frank conversations all the time. Let me make
• 40:08
  Speaker 2: another Godfather analogy. My whole producer, Paul always had sein
• 40:11
  Speaker 2: Fellow analogies, and I always had Sopranos analogies. There's a
• 40:14
  Speaker 2: lot of Godfather analogies. This wasn't Godfather too. There was
• 40:20
  Speaker 2: that corrupt senator from Nevada, can't remember his name. He
• 40:26
  Speaker 2: meets with Michael Corleone at their compound and live Tahoe.
• 40:31
  Speaker 2: Michael Corleone tells the senator that, well that's The senator
• 40:35
  Speaker 2: tells Michael Corlin, I hear you're trying to take over
• 40:37
  Speaker 2: to more casinos hidden ownership. You gotta put in place somebody,
• 40:40
  Speaker 2: but you're behind it. And he said, I'm gonna shake you.
• 40:45
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna shake you down. You got to pay me
• 40:47
  Speaker 2: a couple hundred thousand dollars to advance the licens, and
• 40:54
  Speaker 2: Michael Corleone told him I'm gonna pay him a damn thing.
• 41:00
  Speaker 2: The senator ended up the next night in bed with
• 41:03
  Speaker 2: a dead hooker with blood all over him, and needed,
• 41:07
  Speaker 2: of course, the help of the Corleone family to get
• 41:09
  Speaker 2: out of this total mess that they were in. To
• 41:18
  Speaker 2: analyze this situation of why we've learned about Oh, the
• 41:25
  Speaker 2: point I wanted to make, I didn't finish my point
• 41:27
  Speaker 2: in that meeting the senator from Nevadison. Mister Corleone, I'm
• 41:32
  Speaker 2: going to speak with you more frankly than perhaps anybody's
• 41:35
  Speaker 2: ever spoken with you. And that's what he shook him
• 41:37
  Speaker 2: down and called him greasy and said he didn't like
• 41:40
  Speaker 2: your kind of people out there in the desert. Well,
• 41:43
  Speaker 2: those conversations happened all the time with powerful people, but
• 41:46
  Speaker 2: rarely do you hear about them. I'm sure there have
• 41:48
  Speaker 2: been world leaders in which they really got into it
• 41:52
  Speaker 2: with also, not just Trump, but all of them. They
• 41:54
  Speaker 2: have frank conversations. Sometimes you hear about him, sometimes you don't.
• 41:57
  Speaker 2: Why do we hear about this? I'll tell you where
• 42:00
  Speaker 2: we heard about this. Trump wanted this out. He wanted
• 42:06
  Speaker 2: the world to know, so he has his aides leaked
• 42:08
  Speaker 2: the conversation and then when asked about Trump said, yeah,
• 42:11
  Speaker 2: he said it. He wanted the world to know that.
• 42:15
  Speaker 2: He told off net and Yahoo. And what he did
• 42:17
  Speaker 2: is he told off net and Yaho essentially saying you're
• 42:20
  Speaker 2: an ingrate. He said, I want you to stop the
• 42:26
  Speaker 2: bombing of Hesbula in Lebanon, and Trump pointed out that
• 42:33
  Speaker 2: We've done a whole lot that advances Israel's cause, including
• 42:36
  Speaker 2: the war that's going on with a rat and netting
• 42:43
  Speaker 2: Nah who is in no position to try to bully Trump.
• 42:47
  Speaker 2: Trump tells him off. Now, there's two reasons I think
• 42:50
  Speaker 2: we know about this. First of all, there's this narrative
• 42:53
  Speaker 2: out there coming from a bunch of I think sellouts
• 42:58
  Speaker 2: and anti Semites on the right. But Trump is in
• 43:01
  Speaker 2: the pocket of Israel. Trump has never been in the
• 43:04
  Speaker 2: pocket of anyone. I mean, he just prides himself on
• 43:08
  Speaker 2: the fact that nobody shoves him around. He's got that
• 43:10
  Speaker 2: New York kind of bully in him. That's what he is.
• 43:13
  Speaker 2: He's never in anybody's pocket. People get in his pocket.
• 43:19
  Speaker 2: He pursued the war with Iran because he felt and
• 43:21
  Speaker 2: he's you know, you know, for forty years he's been
• 43:23
  Speaker 2: in Iran Katavenuk, and Iran has refused to cooperate with
• 43:27
  Speaker 2: us on anything in Iran keeps bank rolling terror and
• 43:29
  Speaker 2: Trump kept giving them opportunities to get out of this
• 43:31
  Speaker 2: and he didn't, so he hit him, which does benefit Israel,
• 43:35
  Speaker 2: but mostly a benefit of the United States. Now you've
• 43:38
  Speaker 2: got this side thing going on in which, using the
• 43:40
  Speaker 2: cover of the war in Iran, Israel's trying to take
• 43:43
  Speaker 2: out Hesbala in the north in the same way that
• 43:45
  Speaker 2: they took out Hamas in the south. This is complicating
• 43:51
  Speaker 2: Trump's attempts to negotiate with a rad So Trump gets
• 43:54
  Speaker 2: on the horn with Net and Yahoo's, Hey, you're gonna
• 43:55
  Speaker 2: you're gonna stop this over there in Libatad. We know
• 43:59
  Speaker 2: about this because Trump wanted the world to know that.
• 44:04
  Speaker 2: He told Net and Yahoo to back off. Now I'm
• 44:07
  Speaker 2: mixed on this whole question of whether or not we
• 44:09
  Speaker 2: should just greenlight this and let Israel take care of Hesbel.
• 44:13
  Speaker 2: I've argued forever that Israel was making fatal mistakes and
• 44:17
  Speaker 2: appeasing Hamas in the south. Turning over the Gaza strip
• 44:22
  Speaker 2: to terrorists was a mistake. You can't appease them. Doesn't
• 44:27
  Speaker 2: matter how much land you gave to the Palestidians, they'd
• 44:30
  Speaker 2: want more. If there was twenty five square feet left
• 44:33
  Speaker 2: in Tel Aviv that the only Jews lived in, they'd
• 44:36
  Speaker 2: overrun that. The difference here is that Hesbela is not
• 44:40
  Speaker 2: in Israel or israel territories it's in Lebanon now. They
• 44:44
  Speaker 2: cause hell in the northern part of Israel with their
• 44:46
  Speaker 2: constant terror, and they're bankrolled by Iran. So certainly getting
• 44:50
  Speaker 2: rid of them would be in Israel's best infers and
• 44:53
  Speaker 2: is morally defensible to do. But it's complicating this other
• 44:57
  Speaker 2: thing that's going on with us, and Israel's been dependent
• 45:01
  Speaker 2: on us for assistance on any number of things forever.
• 45:04
  Speaker 2: So Trump's request that they stop this is reasonable, and
• 45:07
  Speaker 2: he's hacked off that net and Yaho won't listen to
• 45:09
  Speaker 2: him on it. When Trump's meant his patron. Trump made
• 45:12
  Speaker 2: the comment then yesterday, Israel wouldn't exist were it not
• 45:16
  Speaker 2: for me. He might be right, were it not for Trump.
• 45:23
  Speaker 2: In his first term, in which he pursued the Abraham Accords,
• 45:26
  Speaker 2: which pretty much got much of the Middle East to
• 45:28
  Speaker 2: be okay with Israel. Those are those deals in which
• 45:31
  Speaker 2: a number of nations in the Middle East, starting with
• 45:33
  Speaker 2: the Emirates, agreed to acknowledge Israel's right to exist. It
• 45:37
  Speaker 2: was an attempt to pit all of them against the
• 45:39
  Speaker 2: common enemy Iran. Saudi Arabia hates Iran more than we
• 45:43
  Speaker 2: hate Iran, and more than Israel hates Iran. That was
• 45:46
  Speaker 2: the first part, and now the second part. We knocked
• 45:50
  Speaker 2: out Iran's nuclear facilities in the bombing a year ago,
• 45:54
  Speaker 2: and we have crippled their military now. And Trump, if
• 45:58
  Speaker 2: he hadn't done that, Israel would have nuked excuse me,
• 46:01
  Speaker 2: Iran would have nuked Israel. So Trump's point is correct
• 46:05
  Speaker 2: about that. I think he's spent very very pro Israel,
• 46:09
  Speaker 2: and I am very pro Israel. I think Israel is
• 46:11
  Speaker 2: the second greatest country in the world, largely because who
• 46:15
  Speaker 2: the hell house would be? Seriously, we're the greatest, who
• 46:20
  Speaker 2: would be number two? Who would you come up as
• 46:24
  Speaker 2: the second best country in the world. Poland, that's a
• 46:29
  Speaker 2: good one. The old Eastern Bloc countries are really good.
• 46:33
  Speaker 2: They are far more pro American and far more anti communists,
• 46:37
  Speaker 2: and they're not embracing any of this. They lived under
• 46:40
  Speaker 2: socialism forever. They don't want any part of it. The Czechs,
• 46:44
  Speaker 2: the Romanians, Poland, yeah, those are good ones. I can't
• 46:47
  Speaker 2: argue with that. Israel but has an absolute total democracy. Israel,
• 46:54
  Speaker 2: while having corruption, is cleaned it up. They found a
• 46:56
  Speaker 2: lot of people in jail. Clearly a country of flawed flaw.
• 47:00
  Speaker 2: Israel has been a country of tolerance. Christians can live
• 47:03
  Speaker 2: to some extent in freedom in Israel. There's been some harassment,
• 47:07
  Speaker 2: but not much. Muslims can live in Israel. The Muslims
• 47:11
  Speaker 2: that don't plot terror, who have been living in the
• 47:13
  Speaker 2: country of Israel, including in Jerusalem before the West Bank
• 47:17
  Speaker 2: was taken over by palest idiots, they didn't do anything
• 47:22
  Speaker 2: to them unless they cause problems. Tremendous capitalist country. Number
• 47:27
  Speaker 2: of tech companies have called out of their great innovation.
• 47:32
  Speaker 2: It's a great country with flaws, but a great country.
• 47:35
  Speaker 2: And they are a long time ally of the United States.
• 47:39
  Speaker 2: And these people that simply hit on Israel because they
• 47:41
  Speaker 2: can't stand Jews, because they're modern day anti Soid's, they're
• 47:44
  Speaker 2: wrong and I call them out. But that doesn't mean
• 47:48
  Speaker 2: that when Israel does things that we don't want them
• 47:50
  Speaker 2: to do, that we don't have a right to tell them, Hey,
• 47:51
  Speaker 2: we don't want you to do this anymore after all
• 47:53
  Speaker 2: we've done for you. And Trump is making it clear
• 47:57
  Speaker 2: to this statement, and by the way, after this, Israel
• 48:00
  Speaker 2: is back down, and there's kind of a holt going
• 48:02
  Speaker 2: on to the attacks on Hesbala. In the meantime, the
• 48:06
  Speaker 2: US House of Representatives has passed the resolution. Now, these
• 48:09
  Speaker 2: resolutions are kind of meaningless, but they passed it, blocking
• 48:14
  Speaker 2: further United States military action against Iran. A few Republicans
• 48:19
  Speaker 2: joined with all the Democrats in voting for it. Now,
• 48:23
  Speaker 2: in the end, this isn't going to go anywhere, even
• 48:28
  Speaker 2: if a similar resolution was passed in the Senate. But
• 48:33
  Speaker 2: I'm telling you, I believe that it is an immoral vote,
• 48:36
  Speaker 2: and I would say that even if I felt Trump's
• 48:39
  Speaker 2: actions in Iran were wrong. Our constitution is clear the
• 48:44
  Speaker 2: commander in chief makes foreign policy. You are creating right
• 48:49
  Speaker 2: now the same thing that's going on in Iran. Iran
• 48:52
  Speaker 2: clearly has factions that disagree. There are some and you
• 48:57
  Speaker 2: can just see this when Trump says, wait for close
• 48:59
  Speaker 2: to it. It is close to a deal. With a
• 49:01
  Speaker 2: lot of people in Iran. The president of the country
• 49:03
  Speaker 2: and the mayors, the people that are on the ground,
• 49:05
  Speaker 2: they're running the local government. They all want this to
• 49:08
  Speaker 2: end because their country's people are suffering badly and this
• 49:11
  Speaker 2: war is doing nothing for them. But the hardline Mullahs,
• 49:16
  Speaker 2: the Zelots, they're on a different page. We now create
• 49:21
  Speaker 2: the impression we're on another page, and we am bold
• 49:23
  Speaker 2: in the Iranians to continue to cause trouble if they
• 49:26
  Speaker 2: think that there's weakness in the United States as shown
• 49:28
  Speaker 2: by a government that is showing the same level of division.
• 49:36
  Speaker 2: That's a lot of material for just one segment. That's
• 49:39
  Speaker 2: what we call the weekend show, the Big One. I've
• 49:43
  Speaker 2: got a really good one coming up, like eminently on
• 49:47
  Speaker 2: the Mark Belling podcast. This is the Mark Belling Podcast.
• 49:55
  Speaker 2: There have been a lot of anticipated IPOs. What's an IPO?
• 49:59
  Speaker 2: Do explain to an IPO is? If you were doing
• 50:02
  Speaker 2: a show, what you'd explain what an IPO is? Or
• 50:04
  Speaker 2: just say there's an IPO without explaining it, you would
• 50:08
  Speaker 2: not explain it. I'm gonna explain. An IPO is when
• 50:12
  Speaker 2: a company that is private is taken public, and being
• 50:14
  Speaker 2: taken public means the public, you and I can buy
• 50:18
  Speaker 2: shares in the company. It's called an initial public offering.
• 50:22
  Speaker 2: There have been some big ones. I remember Netscape way
• 50:24
  Speaker 2: back in the day never became much of anything, but
• 50:28
  Speaker 2: at the time it was on the cusp of the
• 50:29
  Speaker 2: Internet revolution. There have been other big ones. There are
• 50:33
  Speaker 2: quite a few out there right now. But the big
• 50:35
  Speaker 2: one expected to be the largest IPO in the history
• 50:39
  Speaker 2: of the world. Is SpaceX. SpaceX is a private country company.
• 50:44
  Speaker 2: It does have shareholders beyond Musk. He has taken on investors,
• 50:49
  Speaker 2: but they're investors that come in privately. Same way, if
• 50:52
  Speaker 2: Jason and I owned a bar and we wanted to
• 50:54
  Speaker 2: take in somebody wanted to buy thirty three percent of
• 50:56
  Speaker 2: our bar, That's that's what they've been doing with SpaceX.
• 50:58
  Speaker 2: But now they're going to take it to the ILK.
• 51:00
  Speaker 2: It's going to his shares are going to trade on
• 51:01
  Speaker 2: the stock market, and they price the IPO, which means
• 51:06
  Speaker 2: that they put a price on the number of shares
• 51:08
  Speaker 2: that are out there, which creates a valuation as to
• 51:10
  Speaker 2: what the company is worth. Then it goes to the
• 51:12
  Speaker 2: market and people decide whether or not that valuation is
• 51:15
  Speaker 2: too high or too low. Some IPOs flop, the stock
• 51:18
  Speaker 2: declines twenty five thirty percent on the open. Other IPOs
• 51:22
  Speaker 2: the stock will double or triple. Now he's studying this
• 51:25
  Speaker 2: one at a high price. But when it does go public,
• 51:30
  Speaker 2: that will mean that there will be additional shareholders beyond
• 51:33
  Speaker 2: the current ones. They're buying shares of the company, but
• 51:36
  Speaker 2: it also means that those share that that the proceeds
• 51:41
  Speaker 2: of that will go to the existing owners of SpaceX Musk.
• 51:46
  Speaker 2: In addition to that, we will have an accurate valuation
• 51:50
  Speaker 2: of what SpaceX is worth. Because the valuation is going
• 51:53
  Speaker 2: to be take the number of shares that are outstanding
• 51:55
  Speaker 2: multiplier are the share price. We now know what it's worth,
• 51:58
  Speaker 2: and given the fact that Musk owns a high percentage
• 52:00
  Speaker 2: of SpaceX, this will accrue to his net worth. The
• 52:03
  Speaker 2: end result is after the SPACEXIPO, which is June twelveth,
• 52:09
  Speaker 2: Musk will become the world's first trillionaire. I remember when
• 52:17
  Speaker 2: we had a company, the Musk himself will be a trillionaire. Now,
• 52:22
  Speaker 2: obviously we have inflationhit of the world. Numbers don't mean
• 52:25
  Speaker 2: the same thing. Still a trillionaire. I remember when Buffett
• 52:30
  Speaker 2: was the riches. Buffet and Gates are fighting for the
• 52:32
  Speaker 2: richest person in the world. They were both under one
• 52:34
  Speaker 2: hundred billion. That wasn't that long ago. Trillionaire now. The
• 52:41
  Speaker 2: thing with regard to Musk is the left simply can't
• 52:44
  Speaker 2: handle anyone whose political views aren't leftist anything, athlete, entertainer anything,
• 52:53
  Speaker 2: so they end up being unable to discuss the more
• 52:55
  Speaker 2: important part of Musk beyond his ideology. Musk is the
• 53:03
  Speaker 2: rare case who was a genius who converted his genius
• 53:09
  Speaker 2: to wealth. A lot of geniuses have flawed personalities, and
• 53:15
  Speaker 2: Musk is a flawed personality, But those flowed personalities mean
• 53:20
  Speaker 2: that they can't apply their genius in a practical fashion.
• 53:24
  Speaker 2: Musk applied his genius in terms of creating actual products
• 53:29
  Speaker 2: and items that have use. Just using an obvious example,
• 53:38
  Speaker 2: there is use for PayPal, be able to pay a
• 53:42
  Speaker 2: bill with a punch of button and it's paid, access
• 53:45
  Speaker 2: your bank account, your credit card or whatever. There was
• 53:48
  Speaker 2: use to Tesla. People in talking about electric cars forever
• 53:52
  Speaker 2: and ever and ever and ever and ever, and when
• 53:54
  Speaker 2: the electric cars came out. Originally Musk was a hero
• 53:57
  Speaker 2: of the left, because the left of the big supporter
• 53:59
  Speaker 2: is the electric because they thought they'd save the world,
• 54:03
  Speaker 2: but nobody had ever successfully pulled it off. There's Teslas
• 54:05
  Speaker 2: all over the everywhere you look, there's a Tesla. Now,
• 54:09
  Speaker 2: so then he decides to create another cup. Then he
• 54:11
  Speaker 2: comes up and he creates starlink. Well, we don't have
• 54:14
  Speaker 2: a way of getting the Internet to people without having
• 54:17
  Speaker 2: some sort of a connection that you hook up to.
• 54:19
  Speaker 2: You got to hook up to some broadband somewhere must said,
• 54:22
  Speaker 2: screw it. I'll just put a bunch of satellites in
• 54:24
  Speaker 2: the air and you can get the Internet anywhere in
• 54:26
  Speaker 2: the world. It could be power outages or whatever. You're
• 54:29
  Speaker 2: just gonna power up and aim to my thing. You
• 54:32
  Speaker 2: live out in the middle of nowhere in northern Wisconsin.
• 54:35
  Speaker 2: Here's the Internet. You don't need to have any hookup.
• 54:37
  Speaker 2: Do you just use Starling. I'm sure all sorts of
• 54:43
  Speaker 2: smart people wish that they had figured out how to
• 54:45
  Speaker 2: do it. He did, and now SpaceX again. You go
• 54:48
  Speaker 2: back to the fifth When the space program started in
• 54:50
  Speaker 2: America in the fifties and the sixties, people talked about
• 54:53
  Speaker 2: one day actually doing things in space beyond just sending
• 54:56
  Speaker 2: the rocket up and coming back. Musk has figured it out.
• 55:03
  Speaker 2: Nobody knows how much actual ability there is to utilize space,
• 55:07
  Speaker 2: but most people believe that it's one of the greatest
• 55:10
  Speaker 2: game changes of all time. The valuation keeps rising on
• 55:16
  Speaker 2: what they're going to make the ipot. They've now priced it,
• 55:23
  Speaker 2: and it'll either go upper and I don't know if
• 55:25
  Speaker 2: it's going to go up or go down because the
• 55:27
  Speaker 2: internal valuation, the internal estimates as to what it's worth
• 55:30
  Speaker 2: have just been exploding. So the companies that already own
• 55:33
  Speaker 2: a portion of SpaceX, the estimated value of their worth
• 55:36
  Speaker 2: is sword. The reality, though, is is that Musk is
• 55:43
  Speaker 2: one of the most important adventors in the history of
• 55:45
  Speaker 2: the world. I think he's there with Edison and again
• 55:51
  Speaker 2: when Thomas Edison was coming up with his innovations, which
• 55:54
  Speaker 2: all were based on the use of electricity, using electricity
• 55:59
  Speaker 2: to power and do numerous things that we couldn't yet
• 56:02
  Speaker 2: do or refine things that others were doing. I mean,
• 56:06
  Speaker 2: he's sitting there in New Jersey and Menlo Park creating
• 56:09
  Speaker 2: one thing after another after another after another. That's what
• 56:13
  Speaker 2: Musk is. So, without regard to what you think about
• 56:16
  Speaker 2: anything about him personally, this idea that we're making a
• 56:21
  Speaker 2: grave mistake in humanity and not producing more children. So
• 56:24
  Speaker 2: he just decides to impregnant women all over the place.
• 56:27
  Speaker 2: And what is he up to know eight hundred and
• 56:29
  Speaker 2: fifty seven. I mean, you can discuss whether or not
• 56:32
  Speaker 2: that's moral or not. But the reality is is that
• 56:37
  Speaker 2: Musk is the term is thrown around two loosely, not
• 56:40
  Speaker 2: only a genius, but one of the most important creators
• 56:43
  Speaker 2: in the history of the world. How much more advanced
• 56:47
  Speaker 2: Are we in all of these areas than we would
• 56:48
  Speaker 2: not have been? Maybe he may have advanced us fifteen
• 56:52
  Speaker 2: years in some of these fields. My next door I've
• 56:56
  Speaker 2: been getting into this a little bit and hinting around
• 56:59
  Speaker 2: on it on the pie, and I want to dive
• 57:01
  Speaker 2: into it a greater length. This unbelievable increase in autism,
• 57:07
  Speaker 2: it's like almost anything else that's increasing. Did we always
• 57:11
  Speaker 2: have this much of it but it wasn't reported? Domestic
• 57:15
  Speaker 2: violence for example, kids being born out of wedlock, any
• 57:21
  Speaker 2: number of things that you want to think about. No, no,
• 57:25
  Speaker 2: but autism barely existed not that long ago, and now
• 57:32
  Speaker 2: staggering number of kids are autistic. What's causing this? Our FK.
• 57:40
  Speaker 2: Junior is one of the few who has had authority
• 57:43
  Speaker 2: within government to actually try to find out, And there
• 57:46
  Speaker 2: are a lot of people who don't want to find
• 57:47
  Speaker 2: out because they don't want their products exposed as the
• 57:50
  Speaker 2: things that created autism. Once again, you go to the
• 57:54
  Speaker 2: vaccine thing. There are many who think that there's a
• 57:56
  Speaker 2: link between vaccines and autism. People keep saying that it's disproof,
• 57:59
  Speaker 2: But the thing about this proved is something can be
• 58:00
  Speaker 2: disproved until it's proven when they say disproved, they're often
• 58:05
  Speaker 2: saying it hasn't yet been proved. It's a separate thing.
• 58:07
  Speaker 2: I don't know if it's that. I have my theories
• 58:10
  Speaker 2: on any number of things. I think a lot of
• 58:13
  Speaker 2: it has to do with all of the drugs, the
• 58:14
  Speaker 2: antipsychotic antidepressants, and all this stuff that we're putting into people,
• 58:19
  Speaker 2: including into women who are pregnant. They're popping all of
• 58:21
  Speaker 2: this crap into their bodies to improve their mood or
• 58:24
  Speaker 2: to do this, and then add in all the illegal drugs.
• 58:26
  Speaker 2: I think that this can get into their fetus and
• 58:28
  Speaker 2: change the way brains develop. That's my theory, just using
• 58:31
  Speaker 2: common sense. It might be right, might be wrong. But
• 58:34
  Speaker 2: there's also the potential here. How many false diagnoses are there.
• 58:42
  Speaker 2: I think there's a racket in autism. In addition to
• 58:45
  Speaker 2: the fact that there is a real uptick in autism,
• 58:49
  Speaker 2: it may well be that those numbers are being inflated
• 58:53
  Speaker 2: because of hyped diagnoses of autism. I talked to Jason
• 58:58
  Speaker 2: on an earlier podcast, said, how do the autistic kids
• 59:00
  Speaker 2: that you know when you're a kid. I think we
• 59:02
  Speaker 2: brought that up. I think you said none, right, none,
• 59:05
  Speaker 2: But we certainly knew a lot of kids who were
• 59:08
  Speaker 2: shy or introspective. There were kids who'd rather do something
• 59:14
  Speaker 2: in their bedroom than go outside and play. There were
• 59:18
  Speaker 2: some kids who kept to themselves. There were some who
• 59:21
  Speaker 2: were really talented but quiet about it. Maybe those same
• 59:30
  Speaker 2: kids today would be diagnosed as being on the spectrum.
• 59:34
  Speaker 2: I don't know. I honestly don't know, but I'm open
• 59:37
  Speaker 2: to it. Are we taking any kid that isn't a yelling, screaming,
• 59:43
  Speaker 2: outgoing brat or even exuberant kid and declaring of autistic?
• 59:53
  Speaker 2: I wonder about this because I just if you want
• 59:56
  Speaker 2: to understand any damn thing in life, follow the damn money.
• 1:00:02
  Speaker 2: What happens when somebody is designated autistic? Here comes the money.
• 1:00:08
  Speaker 2: Somebody gets to make money off of them. Big story
• 1:00:11
  Speaker 2: in the Wall Street Journal this week. Autism therapy is booming,
• 1:00:15
  Speaker 2: and so is the billing abuse. You think that there's
• 1:00:19
  Speaker 2: a scam going on with billing the government for child services,
• 1:00:23
  Speaker 2: childcare services, the Somali stuff, the child daycare centers in
• 1:00:28
  Speaker 2: the state of Wisconsin. How about this autism thing? Okay,
• 1:00:33
  Speaker 2: we're designated kid is autistic. It's a vested interest for
• 1:00:36
  Speaker 2: the professional to designate the kid as autistic, because now
• 1:00:39
  Speaker 2: you can start providing services to the kid that's autistic,
• 1:00:42
  Speaker 2: and build insurance and build the government. The link between
• 1:00:47
  Speaker 2: SSI and autism is a big money trade. And now
• 1:00:51
  Speaker 2: build the government. When the government is built for some
• 1:00:54
  Speaker 2: I mean, if I go to the doctor, right, let's
• 1:01:00
  Speaker 2: take a common procedure that old farts get. I love
• 1:01:03
  Speaker 2: using gross ones because I know it just bothers people.
• 1:01:06
  Speaker 2: My gross meters pretty I'm very tolerant on the gross
• 1:01:09
  Speaker 2: meter thing. And as a kid I had to clean
• 1:01:11
  Speaker 2: the clean the pigeon coop, you know, and that meant
• 1:01:14
  Speaker 2: scraping the bird crap off the ground. That just raised
• 1:01:17
  Speaker 2: my level of tolerance the gross things that I can. Like,
• 1:01:19
  Speaker 2: I see a bunch of blood out, Oh, there's a
• 1:01:21
  Speaker 2: lot of blood over there. Some dog crap is on
• 1:01:24
  Speaker 2: the Oh there's dog crap there. Leymaneur on the field,
• 1:01:27
  Speaker 2: fucking a le manor on the field. I stand in
• 1:01:29
  Speaker 2: horse tables. You know what they smell like? Horse urine?
• 1:01:32
  Speaker 2: That's that smell. It's horse urine on a Oh. I
• 1:01:35
  Speaker 2: just love that it's soft. Then you tell them what
• 1:01:37
  Speaker 2: it is, you know, that's horse piss on. Hey, so
• 1:01:40
  Speaker 2: I love using this gross stuff. The autism diagnoses creates
• 1:01:55
  Speaker 2: the opportunity for the autism service. Nobody knows what service
• 1:02:02
  Speaker 2: is provided. The example I was going to use on
• 1:02:06
  Speaker 2: the grosses. Once you're over fifty, you're supposed to start
• 1:02:11
  Speaker 2: getting colonoscopies, which is about as gross a procedure as
• 1:02:16
  Speaker 2: there can be. First of all, you gotta clear out
• 1:02:19
  Speaker 2: your colon and that means you got to take stuff
• 1:02:21
  Speaker 2: that makes you do nothing but go to the can
• 1:02:24
  Speaker 2: for like a day and a half. Then they go
• 1:02:26
  Speaker 2: in and they stick a probe in there to see
• 1:02:27
  Speaker 2: if there's anything going on in your keyster. But here's
• 1:02:32
  Speaker 2: the thing. When they do that, when the doctor does that,
• 1:02:35
  Speaker 2: it's overwhelming evidence that Kolondosky was performed. It's done in
• 1:02:40
  Speaker 2: a medical setting, either a hospital or an outpatient clinic.
• 1:02:43
  Speaker 2: There's nurses that are assigned, there's doctors that are assigned.
• 1:02:45
  Speaker 2: The billing almost has to be on the up and up.
• 1:02:48
  Speaker 2: It's hard to fake that somebody did a colidoscopy because
• 1:02:50
  Speaker 2: colonoscopies involved numerous people in a medical setting, and if
• 1:02:54
  Speaker 2: somebody just but they all just faked it and said,
• 1:02:56
  Speaker 2: Charlie over here had a colonoscopy. I'm not saying you couldn't.
• 1:02:59
  Speaker 2: It's hard to do when a woman has a pregnancy
• 1:03:03
  Speaker 2: and she's in the hospital and she gives birth. Yes,
• 1:03:06
  Speaker 2: you can inflate the bill, but it's pretty easy. It's
• 1:03:10
  Speaker 2: hard to fake the whole pregnancy in a billing for it.
• 1:03:14
  Speaker 2: The autism services really to quote my favorite movie line
• 1:03:18
  Speaker 2: in the world, Francis McDormand and Fargo again, but how
• 1:03:23
  Speaker 2: do you know? I suppose they took me in for
• 1:03:29
  Speaker 2: autism treatment and they did this and that and the
• 1:03:31
  Speaker 2: other thing. Oh, and you know you did this, that
• 1:03:33
  Speaker 2: and the other thing. What if it's talk therapy, how
• 1:03:36
  Speaker 2: do you know I've been there for all of these days,
• 1:03:38
  Speaker 2: And how do you know that the doctor that either
• 1:03:40
  Speaker 2: not doing anything at all of that there's nothing going
• 1:03:42
  Speaker 2: on with me. It's very easy to commit fraud out
• 1:03:46
  Speaker 2: and as every Somali who's coming to the United States
• 1:03:49
  Speaker 2: seems to approve, it's really easy to commit fraud when
• 1:03:52
  Speaker 2: who's paying the doctors. Now the insurance companies. That's harder.
• 1:03:56
  Speaker 2: There's this whole revolt against the insurance company. They won't pay,
• 1:03:59
  Speaker 2: they won't pay, they won't Hey, the upside of that
• 1:04:01
  Speaker 2: is that means they're really trying to be on top
• 1:04:03
  Speaker 2: of this fraud. The downside is they often aren't paying
• 1:04:06
  Speaker 2: for something that isn't fraudulent at all, that is very
• 1:04:08
  Speaker 2: beneficial to people. I certainly think that part of it,
• 1:04:18
  Speaker 2: And again I'm not saying all of because I think
• 1:04:20
  Speaker 2: that there has been a clear increase in this behavioral
• 1:04:25
  Speaker 2: I won't say disorder, whatever you call autism is. I
• 1:04:27
  Speaker 2: just think that there is, and I think it has
• 1:04:29
  Speaker 2: a lot to do with the food that we eat
• 1:04:31
  Speaker 2: and the drugs that the pharmaceutical companies have pumped into
• 1:04:34
  Speaker 2: our body, et cetera. But I also think that whenever
• 1:04:38
  Speaker 2: you have something for which the government pays, you will
• 1:04:42
  Speaker 2: always see an increase of it. Also, no matter what
• 1:04:46
  Speaker 2: the so called problem is, the leftist solution is always
• 1:04:49
  Speaker 2: something that they will get money. You just watch this
• 1:04:51
  Speaker 2: on AI Newsome out in California. His AI thing is, well,
• 1:04:55
  Speaker 2: we've got to set up this huge government bureaucracy to
• 1:04:57
  Speaker 2: oversee AI. He was in favor of this. All of
• 1:05:01
  Speaker 2: the people who will now get grants on this. It's
• 1:05:04
  Speaker 2: the same crap as climate change. The reason climate change
• 1:05:07
  Speaker 2: was pushed is the massive amount of money that people
• 1:05:10
  Speaker 2: will be made, whether it be green energy grants, solar,
• 1:05:14
  Speaker 2: this research on that, et cetera. DEI is this is
• 1:05:19
  Speaker 2: the same thing. The number of people that have been
• 1:05:20
  Speaker 2: paid a fortune and other people have been hired despite
• 1:05:23
  Speaker 2: lack of qualifications and the people that have done the
• 1:05:25
  Speaker 2: DEI trading. Lefties take create and hype a problem so
• 1:05:29
  Speaker 2: that they can spend money on themselves to address it.
• 1:05:34
  Speaker 2: I've got another story for you, Ted Mac. The only
• 1:05:44
  Speaker 2: reason I watched this show when I was a kid
• 1:05:47
  Speaker 2: is when I grew up in Kakana. Our TV with
• 1:05:49
  Speaker 2: some Green Bay, and we didn't even have PBS yet.
• 1:05:51
  Speaker 2: There were three stations, and when you were and there
• 1:05:56
  Speaker 2: was a time in which there was only one television.
• 1:05:58
  Speaker 2: I was also over at my grandmothers a lot because
• 1:06:01
  Speaker 2: they lived in the backyard of the shack that we
• 1:06:03
  Speaker 2: had a shack, and they lived in the downstairs of
• 1:06:06
  Speaker 2: the bar that they owed, and I would go over
• 1:06:08
  Speaker 2: there and there was a TV show that my grandmother
• 1:06:11
  Speaker 2: watched all the time. And again there's only three channels on.
• 1:06:14
  Speaker 2: But if you're a kid, you're gonna watch anything that
• 1:06:16
  Speaker 2: I'm telling you. Back when I was a kid in
• 1:06:18
  Speaker 2: that era, you'd say five years old. The TV's on,
• 1:06:21
  Speaker 2: You're gonna watch the TV. I don't care what's on.
• 1:06:26
  Speaker 2: There was a show called The Original Amateur Hour back
• 1:06:29
  Speaker 2: at radio. Somebody named Major Bows ran it, but that
• 1:06:32
  Speaker 2: was before my time. In my time, it was on
• 1:06:34
  Speaker 2: TV and Ted Mack was on it. People of my
• 1:06:38
  Speaker 2: age know this. I know you don't know who Ted
• 1:06:41
  Speaker 2: Mack is. That you're enough younger than me. Ted Mack
• 1:06:44
  Speaker 2: is one of those guys that when he disappeared, that
• 1:06:47
  Speaker 2: was the end of any any acknowledge of his existence.
• 1:06:50
  Speaker 2: It's not like say Frank Sinatra, who will live on
• 1:06:53
  Speaker 2: into all eternity and everybody will know Ted Mack. But
• 1:06:56
  Speaker 2: Ted Mack ended. Ted Mack ended you either home where
• 1:07:00
  Speaker 2: you don't well. He had this thing, the Amateur ar was.
• 1:07:05
  Speaker 2: It was like the precursor to Star Search, which was
• 1:07:08
  Speaker 2: the precursor to American Idol. It was a few big
• 1:07:12
  Speaker 2: people came out of it. It was like a thing where
• 1:07:14
  Speaker 2: amateurs came out and did a little talent thing for
• 1:07:16
  Speaker 2: thirty minutes. But it was like nice talent and like
• 1:07:19
  Speaker 2: you know, Star Search put in a lot more hype
• 1:07:21
  Speaker 2: in it. Freevolven Show, by the way, and then American
• 1:07:24
  Speaker 2: idol took it to another level, right, and he would
• 1:07:27
  Speaker 2: like smin this wheel to get the whole thing. So
• 1:07:29
  Speaker 2: round and Roundchi goes where she stopped. Nobody knows him.
• 1:07:33
  Speaker 2: He was like he probably wasn't even that old. He
• 1:07:35
  Speaker 2: just looked like he was like all the old people
• 1:07:38
  Speaker 2: look so much older than people that I know now
• 1:07:40
  Speaker 2: that are the same aide. I mean, I think of
• 1:07:42
  Speaker 2: my grandparents and there in their fifties, they look fifty
• 1:07:45
  Speaker 2: years older than I look. Now. It's just true. Anyway,
• 1:07:54
  Speaker 2: round and round she goes where she stops. Nobody knows
• 1:07:57
  Speaker 2: this story. It's somewhere in southeast and Wisconsin. I'm telling
• 1:08:01
  Speaker 2: you that, and one person, one person listening to me,
• 1:08:03
  Speaker 2: who can guess where the story comes from. You all
• 1:08:06
  Speaker 2: try just pick a community. It's southeast Wisconsin's got me
• 1:08:08
  Speaker 2: somewhere Salem Lakes. See, nobody had it. The great thing
• 1:08:13
  Speaker 2: about that is there's probably somebody out there who lives
• 1:08:16
  Speaker 2: in Salem Lakes and said it's me, and they have
• 1:08:19
  Speaker 2: no way of proving it. Back when we did a
• 1:08:21
  Speaker 2: live radio show, they would call in and claim, you
• 1:08:23
  Speaker 2: won't believe this, but I knew it now. They'd email me,
• 1:08:24
  Speaker 2: but I don't read the emails, so I'll never find
• 1:08:26
  Speaker 2: out anyway, Salem, It's an interesting story. I am a
• 1:08:30
  Speaker 2: longtime critic of the overuse of There's two initials, but
• 1:08:34
  Speaker 2: they mean the same thing. Either TIFF or TID districts,
• 1:08:38
  Speaker 2: tax incremental financing, or just tax incremental districts, same thing.
• 1:08:42
  Speaker 2: A TIFF or a TID is a government program that
• 1:08:48
  Speaker 2: provides government assistance to a private developer. Some argue it's
• 1:08:53
  Speaker 2: not a subsidy BS, it's a subsidy. The creation of
• 1:08:57
  Speaker 2: the tax increment district means that the government will do
• 1:09:04
  Speaker 2: a lot of work to pay for a portion of
• 1:09:07
  Speaker 2: a product. The money will be paid back by the
• 1:09:11
  Speaker 2: taxes that are created by the increased valuation after the
• 1:09:15
  Speaker 2: work is done. As an example, suppose you want to
• 1:09:20
  Speaker 2: put in a factory. The creation of the tax increment
• 1:09:23
  Speaker 2: district means the government will put in the roads, put
• 1:09:25
  Speaker 2: in the water lines, put in the sewer, lay out
• 1:09:27
  Speaker 2: the infrastructure, maybe even acquire the land, and then you
• 1:09:32
  Speaker 2: pay it back with Okay, now you build the factory.
• 1:09:35
  Speaker 2: The land that was worth nothing is now worth millions
• 1:09:37
  Speaker 2: and millions of dollars, and now the property taxes instead
• 1:09:40
  Speaker 2: of going into the general fund going to pay back
• 1:09:41
  Speaker 2: the money that you got. I believe there's a proper
• 1:09:48
  Speaker 2: place for these The example that I just cited, the
• 1:09:53
  Speaker 2: creation of the factory is a good thing. Create all
• 1:09:55
  Speaker 2: these jobs, etc. Put in the tax increment district. Now
• 1:09:59
  Speaker 2: you got all these people working land that was sitting
• 1:10:01
  Speaker 2: there doing not a damn thing at all. Is productive
• 1:10:03
  Speaker 2: people working there? So what? But a lot of times
• 1:10:10
  Speaker 2: it's used to subsidize something that I don't think is
• 1:10:12
  Speaker 2: of any value at all. It's just a wash, or
• 1:10:16
  Speaker 2: it's used to subsidize something that would have happened without
• 1:10:19
  Speaker 2: the tax incrome a district, and they become sweetheart deals
• 1:10:23
  Speaker 2: where people who are on the receiving end of the
• 1:10:25
  Speaker 2: tiff have enough clout and they suck up to the
• 1:10:28
  Speaker 2: keysters of local public officials. The old guard of Menominee
• 1:10:32
  Speaker 2: falls not the ones in charge. Now. They tiff district
• 1:10:36
  Speaker 2: things like crazy, and in many instances things that went
• 1:10:41
  Speaker 2: to hanchos in the community. This still goes on right
• 1:10:44
  Speaker 2: and left. The thing is, I'm not a favor or
• 1:10:47
  Speaker 2: against TIFFs. Every single one of them has to be
• 1:10:50
  Speaker 2: judged on their own merits. This one from Salem Lakes
• 1:10:54
  Speaker 2: Salem Lakes is in western Kenosha County. Some of you
• 1:10:58
  Speaker 2: who are not from Wisconsin don Some of you that
• 1:11:00
  Speaker 2: are might not know this. This that western Kenosha County
• 1:11:03
  Speaker 2: is booming. I got a great one here. See, I'm
• 1:11:06
  Speaker 2: really smart. I've got a great analoge. You know, Western
• 1:11:09
  Speaker 2: Kenosha County is it's our Florida. Florida is booming. Everybody's
• 1:11:13
  Speaker 2: moving to Florida, et cetera. For all of the reasons
• 1:11:17
  Speaker 2: why everybody's moving to western Kenosha County, here's why. What
• 1:11:25
  Speaker 2: is just south of western Kenosha County ill a bleeping NOI.
• 1:11:30
  Speaker 2: Illinois is going to hell. The taxes are high, the
• 1:11:33
  Speaker 2: business environment is terrible. Everything sucks. So you move a
• 1:11:42
  Speaker 2: little bit more. What's immediately north well Kenosha on the
• 1:11:46
  Speaker 2: eastern side, and there's been incredible growth there western part
• 1:11:49
  Speaker 2: of Kenosha County. And I'll just describe it as the
• 1:11:51
  Speaker 2: area west of I ninety four. It goes way way west,
• 1:11:54
  Speaker 2: it goes almost all the way to Lake Geneva. The
• 1:11:58
  Speaker 2: development there is just it's booming. It's all a good thing.
• 1:12:06
  Speaker 2: It's a great thing. So I call it our Florida.
• 1:12:12
  Speaker 2: It's still in Wisconsin, so we still have high levels
• 1:12:14
  Speaker 2: of local taxation and so on, but it's not as
• 1:12:17
  Speaker 2: bad as Illinois. And for the people in southeastern Wisconsin,
• 1:12:20
  Speaker 2: there's a high level of quality life beautiful out there,
• 1:12:22
  Speaker 2: the rolling hills and so on. It's not hilly, but
• 1:12:25
  Speaker 2: it rolls a little bit green. There's some rural development,
• 1:12:29
  Speaker 2: a lot of it is being subdivided into communities, et cetera,
• 1:12:32
  Speaker 2: et ceteratca. Salem Lakes is one of the communities right
• 1:12:36
  Speaker 2: in the middle of this. There's a battle going on
• 1:12:40
  Speaker 2: in that community and an adjacent community right next door.
• 1:12:46
  Speaker 2: There's a big time development company that operates in southeastern
• 1:12:49
  Speaker 2: Wisconsin and elsewhere called Bear Development. I am not pro
• 1:12:55
  Speaker 2: Bear development or anti Bear development. They're trying to get
• 1:12:58
  Speaker 2: a Tiff district to do a housing development in Salem Lakes.
• 1:13:03
  Speaker 2: The housing development would simply be to take land that
• 1:13:06
  Speaker 2: right now is just undeveloped land, and they want to
• 1:13:10
  Speaker 2: put in a bunch of single family houses and they
• 1:13:14
  Speaker 2: want a tid district or Tiff district to finance the improvements.
• 1:13:18
  Speaker 2: The improvements, as I say, it's just a big piece
• 1:13:19
  Speaker 2: of land, meaning there's no sewer in there, there's no water,
• 1:13:22
  Speaker 2: there's no roads. You need massive infrastructure to do this,
• 1:13:25
  Speaker 2: So they want the government to pay to put all
• 1:13:27
  Speaker 2: of that stuff in. Normally I developer wants to do
• 1:13:31
  Speaker 2: something like this, they got to pay the infrastructure costs.
• 1:13:34
  Speaker 2: If without a tiff district. Let's say say I wanted
• 1:13:36
  Speaker 2: to do this, and by the way, if I had
• 1:13:38
  Speaker 2: enough money, it would be a good thing to do
• 1:13:40
  Speaker 2: because this area, as I say, is booming. Every one
• 1:13:43
  Speaker 2: of the houses will sell unless they just overpriced them. Okay,
• 1:13:47
  Speaker 2: I got as part of my cost to develop it.
• 1:13:49
  Speaker 2: I gotta put in the roads, I gotta pay for
• 1:13:50
  Speaker 2: the sewer, I gotta pay for this, I gotta pay
• 1:13:52
  Speaker 2: for all that. Then I go forward. Bear is asking
• 1:13:57
  Speaker 2: Salem Lakes for a to do this. Many of the
• 1:14:04
  Speaker 2: residents are opposed because they don't see the upside of
• 1:14:09
  Speaker 2: in their community that is doesn't have tons of development,
• 1:14:13
  Speaker 2: has a lot of green space and residential They don't
• 1:14:16
  Speaker 2: see the advantage of subdividing the community and bringing in
• 1:14:19
  Speaker 2: zillions more people. Now, if I lived there, I'd be
• 1:14:24
  Speaker 2: on that side. It's the same thing with anything. When
• 1:14:28
  Speaker 2: I was in Kakana, when I mean moved out of
• 1:14:29
  Speaker 2: our shack next to the bar that I referred to earlier.
• 1:14:32
  Speaker 2: We moved to the edge of town. That was in
• 1:14:36
  Speaker 2: the nineteen sixties. That edge of town, I'm not making
• 1:14:39
  Speaker 2: this up, goes three miles south of where we were.
• 1:14:43
  Speaker 2: In other words, we were on the edge of town
• 1:14:46
  Speaker 2: until somebody moved a final side, and then the next
• 1:14:48
  Speaker 2: block of the next block, and the next block, and
• 1:14:49
  Speaker 2: the next block of the next block. This is going
• 1:14:53
  Speaker 2: on forever. But when we were on the edge of
• 1:14:55
  Speaker 2: town and there was woods across the street, that was
• 1:14:57
  Speaker 2: great if you're a kid. Now it's just a middle
• 1:15:01
  Speaker 2: class neighborhood with a bunch of ranchoses. So if I
• 1:15:07
  Speaker 2: live in Salem Lakes where there aren't a lot of people,
• 1:15:09
  Speaker 2: maybe I had like a little couple more businesses so
• 1:15:12
  Speaker 2: I don't have to drive forever to get something. But
• 1:15:16
  Speaker 2: the whole point of living out there is there's not
• 1:15:18
  Speaker 2: zillions of people out there, so I wouldn't want to
• 1:15:21
  Speaker 2: have big subdivision coming in. What the hell do I
• 1:15:23
  Speaker 2: get out of that. The community, however, needs to look
• 1:15:30
  Speaker 2: at the notion of growth. Some growth is good, so
• 1:15:35
  Speaker 2: I can if I live there, I just oppose it
• 1:15:37
  Speaker 2: because I don't want all these poses there that would
• 1:15:40
  Speaker 2: maybe that simple, but that's my self centered position. The
• 1:15:44
  Speaker 2: question here is whether or not you need to do
• 1:15:46
  Speaker 2: a tiff district for it. Given the fact that western
• 1:15:50
  Speaker 2: Kenosha County is booming, why do you need assistance to
• 1:15:54
  Speaker 2: help it boom. It's the same point I've made against
• 1:15:58
  Speaker 2: subsidizing a convention hotel near the Convention Center in Milwaukee.
• 1:16:02
  Speaker 2: If there's demand for a hotel, somebody's gonna build a
• 1:16:04
  Speaker 2: hotel and make money off of it. That they don't
• 1:16:06
  Speaker 2: need a subsidy. If they need a subsidy, that means
• 1:16:09
  Speaker 2: there's no demand for it, and it isn't justified. The
• 1:16:13
  Speaker 2: great thing about the free market is if there's a
• 1:16:15
  Speaker 2: need to do something, somebody will do it and make money.
• 1:16:17
  Speaker 2: And if there isn't a need for it, nobody's gonna
• 1:16:19
  Speaker 2: do it. The local community has been adamant. Now I'm
• 1:16:25
  Speaker 2: gonna be fearing my coverage of this. I talked to
• 1:16:27
  Speaker 2: a couple of people, and I haven't contacted by a
• 1:16:29
  Speaker 2: couple of listeners who want me to focus on the
• 1:16:32
  Speaker 2: fact that this thing and the people in the adjacent community,
• 1:16:34
  Speaker 2: they really don't want it. They get nothing out of
• 1:16:37
  Speaker 2: it because the growth isn't even in their community. The
• 1:16:41
  Speaker 2: people in Salem Lakes, though, let me explain the problem here. See,
• 1:16:47
  Speaker 2: you build all these houses and everybody comes into them.
• 1:16:50
  Speaker 2: This creates a massive increase in demand for what services.
• 1:16:56
  Speaker 2: You may need more firefighters, you may need more cops.
• 1:17:01
  Speaker 2: You may need to spend more money on the street
• 1:17:04
  Speaker 2: department because now you have more streets. In terms of
• 1:17:07
  Speaker 2: the schools, okay, there's gonna be more kids going to
• 1:17:09
  Speaker 2: the schools. See if all these people coming in with
• 1:17:12
  Speaker 2: a greater demand for services. Often that's a wash because
• 1:17:16
  Speaker 2: the property is developed and you have more and revenue
• 1:17:18
  Speaker 2: coming in. But they won't have more revenue coming in
• 1:17:21
  Speaker 2: because it's going into the tiff. So the developer gets
• 1:17:26
  Speaker 2: to have their taxes go to pay for all the
• 1:17:30
  Speaker 2: improvements that they win in. That means the taxes don't
• 1:17:33
  Speaker 2: go to the schools, They don't go to the fire
• 1:17:34
  Speaker 2: they don't go to the police, they don't go to
• 1:17:36
  Speaker 2: any of the governmental services that are out there. So
• 1:17:38
  Speaker 2: the community sees all these new residents, but they don't
• 1:17:40
  Speaker 2: get any tax revenu devise. So the argument is, why
• 1:17:42
  Speaker 2: the hell would you do it, other than somebody suck
• 1:17:45
  Speaker 2: it up to Bear Development, very successful development company, a
• 1:17:49
  Speaker 2: lot of cloud and a lot of people within government
• 1:17:53
  Speaker 2: get bowled over by these people. I am impossible to
• 1:17:57
  Speaker 2: bowl over. Never give a crap what anybody thinks about me.
• 1:18:02
  Speaker 2: I lay it out there, say what I think, and
• 1:18:03
  Speaker 2: if somebody doesn't like it, so ot. And if others,
• 1:18:05
  Speaker 2: if you are smart enough to like it, and you
• 1:18:07
  Speaker 2: make me highly successful, all the better. There is now
• 1:18:10
  Speaker 2: a flip side of that, and again I talked on
• 1:18:12
  Speaker 2: background to some people in that area, beautiful area, and
• 1:18:17
  Speaker 2: that is every time one of these developments is built
• 1:18:20
  Speaker 2: in western Kenosha County, they'll build the houses and sell
• 1:18:23
  Speaker 2: them for like say, I'll use an example because this
• 1:18:25
  Speaker 2: has happened two fifty two hundred and seventy five thousand.
• 1:18:28
  Speaker 2: Within three years they resell for eight hundred. In other words,
• 1:18:33
  Speaker 2: there is an incredible demand to live there, and real
• 1:18:38
  Speaker 2: estate is location, location, location, so the cost of building
• 1:18:42
  Speaker 2: the house and then a mark up to build it,
• 1:18:45
  Speaker 2: people move into the house and others want to get
• 1:18:47
  Speaker 2: in so badly that the valuation just explodes. So when
• 1:18:50
  Speaker 2: you see that kind of demand for housing, you can
• 1:18:55
  Speaker 2: see that it would be in the best interest in
• 1:18:57
  Speaker 2: the community to be able to go ahead with it,
• 1:19:01
  Speaker 2: and then when those houses are resold and people contribute
• 1:19:05
  Speaker 2: to the services, this growth can happen, can perhaps accrue
• 1:19:09
  Speaker 2: to the overall growth of the community and the county
• 1:19:11
  Speaker 2: and the region, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera, which
• 1:19:14
  Speaker 2: then creates demand for business support for the businesses that
• 1:19:17
  Speaker 2: are in the area and so on. So there's two
• 1:19:19
  Speaker 2: sides of this in general. However, I go back to
• 1:19:25
  Speaker 2: the premise one of the things that the law states
• 1:19:27
  Speaker 2: with regard to tift districts, you can only do it
• 1:19:31
  Speaker 2: if you can justify that you have to do the
• 1:19:34
  Speaker 2: tift district for it to happen at all. And I
• 1:19:36
  Speaker 2: think this is violated more than almost any law we
• 1:19:39
  Speaker 2: have in Wisconsin, other than maybe speeding and drug use.
• 1:19:45
  Speaker 2: There are things that we tiff just to do sweetheart
• 1:19:48
  Speaker 2: deals for developers. And again I'm not criticizing the developers
• 1:19:52
  Speaker 2: for this. If you can convince government to give it,
• 1:19:54
  Speaker 2: you know, you can say, I suppose the same thing
• 1:19:56
  Speaker 2: to eil at om or and or so Mali friends,
• 1:20:00
  Speaker 2: is going to give you a fortune for something that
• 1:20:01
  Speaker 2: you're not providing. Is it your fault forgot? You could
• 1:20:04
  Speaker 2: say that fraud was done. But when there's a wink
• 1:20:06
  Speaker 2: wink and you've got a corrupt governor looking the other
• 1:20:08
  Speaker 2: way in there like dumbbell Waltz. Eh So, if the developers, yeah,
• 1:20:14
  Speaker 2: we need a tiff in the community, Okay, I'll give
• 1:20:16
  Speaker 2: you the tiff, and now you don't have to spend
• 1:20:18
  Speaker 2: any of this money yourself. I don't know that that's
• 1:20:20
  Speaker 2: their fault. I question, however, why you would need to
• 1:20:30
  Speaker 2: do a tiff in the most booming part of the
• 1:20:33
  Speaker 2: state of Wisconsin. And I get that while the land
• 1:20:37
  Speaker 2: will have incredible value as a man to move out there,
• 1:20:39
  Speaker 2: somebody's got to pay for the sewer and the water
• 1:20:41
  Speaker 2: and the whole thing. Well, if the developer can't do
• 1:20:44
  Speaker 2: it on their own and still make a bucket doing it,
• 1:20:46
  Speaker 2: then maybe it's not supposed to happen, or maybe it is. Again,
• 1:20:50
  Speaker 2: this is a season to be made in the local community.
• 1:20:52
  Speaker 2: It's the same thing that the same debate goes on
• 1:20:55
  Speaker 2: in any number of things where there isn't a subsidy,
• 1:20:57
  Speaker 2: like data centers. Is it in the overall best interests
• 1:21:00
  Speaker 2: of the community, And the answer often is it's in
• 1:21:04
  Speaker 2: the best interests of some in the community. And not
• 1:21:05
  Speaker 2: of the best interests of others. But if you want
• 1:21:08
  Speaker 2: to find something that is abused in communities, leftist communities
• 1:21:12
  Speaker 2: and conservative communities, it's tax increment districts. Again, they have
• 1:21:17
  Speaker 2: a place. The role of government should be to encourage business,
• 1:21:22
  Speaker 2: not discourage business. And sometimes and tiff is an indirect subsidy,
• 1:21:29
  Speaker 2: but a subsidy. Nonetheless, sometimes you have to prime the
• 1:21:33
  Speaker 2: pump to get something going. I questioned in this case
• 1:21:36
  Speaker 2: whether or not the pump needs to be primed. I
• 1:21:40
  Speaker 2: just can't fathom that somebody that had the capital to
• 1:21:43
  Speaker 2: buy the land to do a subdivision in that area,
• 1:21:45
  Speaker 2: which I get down there enough is booming, why you
• 1:21:53
  Speaker 2: need to do the tax increment district. But maybe you do.
• 1:21:57
  Speaker 2: It's an inner And again, I'm sure you pick this
• 1:21:59
  Speaker 2: out because residents in that area have contacted me to
• 1:22:01
  Speaker 2: talk about it. But these kinds of debates go on
• 1:22:03
  Speaker 2: all over the region. You're listening to the Mark Belling podcast.
• 1:22:10
  Speaker 2: This is the Mark Belling podcast on Belling dot Com.
• 1:22:13
  Speaker 2: I've posted my picks for Saturday's Belmont Steaks. Briefly, the
• 1:22:18
  Speaker 2: Triple Crown consists of three races Kentucky to every practice
• 1:22:21
  Speaker 2: at Belmont Steaks. The Belmont Steaks has over the years
• 1:22:25
  Speaker 2: become the greatest of the three races. The Derby is
• 1:22:28
  Speaker 2: the one that everyone follows. The Belmont Steaks has benefited
• 1:22:32
  Speaker 2: from the collapse of the importance of the Preakness. As
• 1:22:37
  Speaker 2: I've tried to explain to people who don't follow horse racing,
• 1:22:40
  Speaker 2: they have a schedule that they've used for about fifty
• 1:22:42
  Speaker 2: years that's archaic practice is two weeks after the Derby,
• 1:22:45
  Speaker 2: the Belmont Stakes three weeks after the Preakness. Hardly anybody
• 1:22:48
  Speaker 2: wants to run a horse on two weeks rest, but
• 1:22:51
  Speaker 2: five weeks is becoming optimal. So any horse that's eligible
• 1:22:55
  Speaker 2: for the Derby runs in the Derby. Any of them
• 1:22:58
  Speaker 2: that do any good in the Derby, they're not going
• 1:22:59
  Speaker 2: to run back in the Preakness. It just doesn't happen anymore.
• 1:23:03
  Speaker 2: So that means they all the good ones, the ones
• 1:23:05
  Speaker 2: that have a chance run of the Belmont Steaks. Also,
• 1:23:08
  Speaker 2: the Derby has these large fields of twenty horses because
• 1:23:10
  Speaker 2: anybody that's sell it to a wants to run of
• 1:23:12
  Speaker 2: the Derby. The Belmont Steaks, which has a large purse,
• 1:23:17
  Speaker 2: it has very few pretenders that want to run because
• 1:23:20
  Speaker 2: they'll they'll aim their horses at races in which they fit,
• 1:23:23
  Speaker 2: in which they can make a fear amount of money,
• 1:23:25
  Speaker 2: rather than be overmatched. So there's only nine horses in
• 1:23:28
  Speaker 2: the Belmont Steaks, but five of them are very good.
• 1:23:32
  Speaker 2: Five in borderline six. I think the five best three
• 1:23:35
  Speaker 2: year olds in America are in the race. For the
• 1:23:39
  Speaker 2: third year in a row, the Belmont Stakes is not
• 1:23:41
  Speaker 2: run at Belmont Park in New York. It's run at Szerotogum.
• 1:23:43
  Speaker 2: They run a three year construction project at Belmont Park.
• 1:23:46
  Speaker 2: It's going to be finished, well, it's going to reopen
• 1:23:49
  Speaker 2: in September. It won't be fully completed until next year,
• 1:23:51
  Speaker 2: but the track will reopen in September. But for the
• 1:23:53
  Speaker 2: third year in a row, they'll run the Belmont Stakes
• 1:23:55
  Speaker 2: at Saratoga, which absolutely nobody is opposed to because everybody
• 1:23:59
  Speaker 2: would rather go to seratogular Belmont Park. It means that
• 1:24:02
  Speaker 2: the race is a mile and a quarter and not
• 1:24:04
  Speaker 2: a mile and a half. Anyway, I have, I had
• 1:24:09
  Speaker 2: a tepid opinion on the Preakness and we made money
• 1:24:11
  Speaker 2: on it. A good opinion on the Kentucky Derby, and
• 1:24:14
  Speaker 2: I didn't even though the horse horses I picked on
• 1:24:18
  Speaker 2: top are all close. I didn't have the winner and
• 1:24:20
  Speaker 2: the winter and do well. The course I picked on
• 1:24:22
  Speaker 2: top didn't do well. I have very strong opinion on
• 1:24:25
  Speaker 2: the Belmont Steaks, and by coincidence, the horses I picked
• 1:24:29
  Speaker 2: one two in the Derby, I'm picking one two in
• 1:24:31
  Speaker 2: the Belmont Steaks, and I very strongly believe that one
• 1:24:34
  Speaker 2: of the two of them will win, and they could
• 1:24:36
  Speaker 2: indeed run one two. So the picks are up there.
• 1:24:39
  Speaker 2: For those of you who have an interest on Belling
• 1:24:41
  Speaker 2: dot Com, I go through reach Horse, and I mentioned
• 1:24:43
  Speaker 2: a couple of other bets on the cart on Saturday.
• 1:24:45
  Speaker 2: But the Belmont Steaks is a good race for those
• 1:24:48
  Speaker 2: of you who want to watch it. The Freakness was
• 1:24:50
  Speaker 2: just a dog this year. It was the slowest one
• 1:24:52
  Speaker 2: in seventy five years. Belmont Steaks should be very good.
• 1:24:58
  Speaker 2: I have another topic that we could do, but frankly,
• 1:25:01
  Speaker 2: you've gotten enough today. We have been absolutely loaded with
• 1:25:06
  Speaker 2: good material. One of the things that over the years
• 1:25:09
  Speaker 2: made my show as good is, first of all, I'm interesting,
• 1:25:13
  Speaker 2: but I find interesting topics and have an interesting take
• 1:25:18
  Speaker 2: on them. And I think that the last two that
• 1:25:20
  Speaker 2: we've done, if you didn't listen to one twenty one,
• 1:25:23
  Speaker 2: which was the last one we did. This is one
• 1:25:24
  Speaker 2: twenty two. Go back and listen to it. I'm very
• 1:25:27
  Speaker 2: happy with the content of the last two. How much
• 1:25:29
  Speaker 2: credit do you take for this? Jason none, He takes no,
• 1:25:34
  Speaker 2: he takes no credit for this. Well, you're right, you
• 1:25:37
  Speaker 2: didn't pick the content, you see. The thing now is
• 1:25:40
  Speaker 2: see Paul didn't have a show. He did weekend shows
• 1:25:42
  Speaker 2: and so on. Jason has a show. He's on Should
• 1:25:45
  Speaker 2: I plug your show? All right? Nine to eleven Central
• 1:25:49
  Speaker 2: Time on News Talk eleven thirty WISN, which also, of
• 1:25:52
  Speaker 2: course is available online, and so on. But if he
• 1:25:57
  Speaker 2: has a content idea, he's putting that on his show.
• 1:26:02
  Speaker 2: I mean, let's imagine you were the podcaster and I
• 1:26:05
  Speaker 2: was the guy doing the radio show. Am I gonna
• 1:26:07
  Speaker 2: get my best materially you to go and do on
• 1:26:09
  Speaker 2: the podcast? Now I'm gonna put it on my thing.
• 1:26:14
  Speaker 2: How would you describe your show? I mean, it's I
• 1:26:18
  Speaker 2: always had a hard time describing my show. I said,
• 1:26:20
  Speaker 2: I talk about anything that I'm interested in, but conservative
• 1:26:22
  Speaker 2: politics is the basis for the show. But then I'll
• 1:26:25
  Speaker 2: talk about any this very broad based. I talk about
• 1:26:28
  Speaker 2: anything from culture to the operative ballet of sports and
• 1:26:30
  Speaker 2: so on. But you just, I mean, I considered my
• 1:26:34
  Speaker 2: show to be a general interest talk show with a conservative,
• 1:26:38
  Speaker 2: common sense conservative perspective. Jason describes himself as common sense conservative.
• 1:26:50
  Speaker 2: It's hard to describe any of the shows because I
• 1:26:52
  Speaker 2: just everybody, mostly every talk show host it's good, has
• 1:26:56
  Speaker 2: their own style, and the ones that fail try to
• 1:26:59
  Speaker 2: copy somebody else's style or they just don't have any
• 1:27:02
  Speaker 2: innate style of their own. But you get to sit.
• 1:27:05
  Speaker 2: You know, Jay Weber has a very different style than
• 1:27:08
  Speaker 2: I have. Dan o'donald, who took over the shift that
• 1:27:10
  Speaker 2: I have, he does his show. I mean, our opinions
• 1:27:13
  Speaker 2: are probably similar on many issues, but he has a
• 1:27:16
  Speaker 2: style of presentation and a choice of topics that's different
• 1:27:21
  Speaker 2: from mine. But you know, when I've been asked over
• 1:27:24
  Speaker 2: the years of people, I want to be a talk
• 1:27:25
  Speaker 2: show hoster, Now I want to be a podcaster. First
• 1:27:28
  Speaker 2: of all, why would I encourage somebody to do a podcast.
• 1:27:30
  Speaker 2: There's already ninety five million competing with me. I give
• 1:27:35
  Speaker 2: somebody advice on how to be a talk show host,
• 1:27:36
  Speaker 2: because I knew damn well that they weren't going to
• 1:27:38
  Speaker 2: be as good as me, and they'd probably have to
• 1:27:39
  Speaker 2: start in backwater Iowa before they'd ever get here. Now
• 1:27:43
  Speaker 2: there is you want to do a podcast. You wrote
• 1:27:45
  Speaker 2: there on the same platforms as all of us, but
• 1:27:48
  Speaker 2: everybody wants to do a podcast. The advice I would
• 1:27:51
  Speaker 2: give the people want to do a talk show is
• 1:27:54
  Speaker 2: a practice in your head by just pretending or try
• 1:27:59
  Speaker 2: to do five minutes sitting in your room by yourself
• 1:28:01
  Speaker 2: and talk out loud. Just do it over and over
• 1:28:03
  Speaker 2: and over again. It will suck, and it's gonna keep
• 1:28:05
  Speaker 2: sucking and sucking until it stops sucking. The second thing
• 1:28:09
  Speaker 2: is do it the way that you want to do it,
• 1:28:14
  Speaker 2: and if that doesn't work, it means people don't want
• 1:28:16
  Speaker 2: to hear you. But you can't try to do it
• 1:28:19
  Speaker 2: in a way that somebody's telling you to do, because
• 1:28:21
  Speaker 2: that means it's nothing. That doesn't mean you can't take input. Back.
• 1:28:24
  Speaker 2: When I was getting started in this in Madison, I
• 1:28:27
  Speaker 2: had one and only one guy I'm pretty sure he's
• 1:28:31
  Speaker 2: dead say this and the other true that I listened
• 1:28:35
  Speaker 2: to who had very good instincts. He was a program
• 1:28:37
  Speaker 2: director of radio stations in Dallas and later San Francisco.
• 1:28:40
  Speaker 2: Then when Charlie Serafin, I won't say he was a consultant,
• 1:28:43
  Speaker 2: but he gave me advice. And when I was startying
• 1:28:46
  Speaker 2: the thing in Madison, he was I was doing political
• 1:28:48
  Speaker 2: stuff in the interviews. It was mostly an interview show
• 1:28:50
  Speaker 2: and then political and he told me, this is again
• 1:28:53
  Speaker 2: in the eighties, you got to do more Oprah Winfrey.
• 1:28:55
  Speaker 2: Stuff weren't slice of and of course I'm interested in
• 1:28:59
  Speaker 2: slice of life stuff and just regular old things that
• 1:29:02
  Speaker 2: are in the news. And I started doing that, and
• 1:29:03
  Speaker 2: it's been a huge portion of my thing. Well it
• 1:29:06
  Speaker 2: was that, and you know, take more chances, do this,
• 1:29:10
  Speaker 2: get more music into the thing, all kinds of things
• 1:29:12
  Speaker 2: that I sort of thought would work, but I didn't
• 1:29:14
  Speaker 2: have anybody ratify the idea. After about nineteen ninety one,
• 1:29:17
  Speaker 2: I didn't listen to anybody's input on anything at all.
• 1:29:19
  Speaker 2: It's either going to work the way that you want
• 1:29:21
  Speaker 2: to work and want to do it, or it's not.
• 1:29:25
  Speaker 2: Most of all, do understand this. If you're doing this
• 1:29:29
  Speaker 2: because you want to listen to your own voice, it
• 1:29:31
  Speaker 2: will never work. You can only work if others want
• 1:29:35
  Speaker 2: to listen to your voice. And that's very rewarding when
• 1:29:38
  Speaker 2: somebody wants to listen to you talk. First of all,
• 1:29:41
  Speaker 2: it's the greatest job in the world. You get paid
• 1:29:44
  Speaker 2: to sit here and shoot your damn mouth off. But
• 1:29:47
  Speaker 2: you have to understand that you're not doing it because
• 1:29:50
  Speaker 2: you're this big loud mouth who wants people to have
• 1:29:53
  Speaker 2: to listen to you. It's going to work because people
• 1:29:56
  Speaker 2: want to listen to you, not because you want them
• 1:29:59
  Speaker 2: to listen to you. That is the end of the
• 1:30:06
