"Larry's (Crystal) Balls" (FTTxJT Wed 102826 hr1) · First Thing Today with Joe Thomas

• 0:03
  Speaker 1: I'm more mega now make America great again than I've
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: ever been. Making mornings great again. First thing today on
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: the Talk Media Network by Joe Thomas.
• 0:35
  Speaker 2: Oh, bless you for being part of a Ted's D
• 0:39
  Speaker 2: where we celebrate God's gifts to you. Your zealous pursuit
• 0:44
  Speaker 2: of expertise in those gifts and a grateful constituency that
• 0:49
  Speaker 2: rewards you justly for performing them for them. And then
• 0:53
  Speaker 2: you know what happens? This magic happens. You stop worrying
• 0:59
  Speaker 2: about what the keyboard warriors say about you. I really
• 1:03
  Speaker 2: believe that if more teenagers grasped this, we'd have happier teenagers.
• 1:11
  Speaker 2: We wouldn't have all the mean girl power. Because mean
• 1:14
  Speaker 2: girls don't have the power over somebody who knows what
• 1:19
  Speaker 2: they're doing, where they're going. The mean girls aren't going
• 1:23
  Speaker 2: to get in their way. We were just talking about this.
• 1:27
  Speaker 2: with the staff at the Mumford T Firefly Suck It
• 1:30
  Speaker 2: From The Sky Downlink Antennae that brings me to you
• 1:34
  Speaker 2: each morning, you know, and how it's funny. It's like
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: the old NASCAR expression. You got to go slower to
• 1:42
  Speaker 2: go faster. You know, in these little, you know, great
• 1:47
  Speaker 2: tracks like Martinsville and even the road courses of Sonoma
• 1:51
  Speaker 2: and Watkins Glen, you know, the harder you push... the
• 1:56
  Speaker 2: more you have to slow down in the corners and
• 1:59
  Speaker 2: the slower lap times you have, the more you beat
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: up your car. Um, and, and these companies that micromanage
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: are always just right there. And often the only thing
• 2:10
  Speaker 2: they have going for them is their size. Um, you know,
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: and that isn't always the answer anymore. I mean, it
• 2:19
  Speaker 2: gets you that momentary hit, uh, at Wall Street level,
• 2:26
  Speaker 2: but I think for the most part, long-term. And I'm
• 2:30
  Speaker 2: not even sure Wall Street cares about long-term anymore. I
• 2:35
  Speaker 2: think it's about, you know, what can you do for
• 2:37
  Speaker 2: me in the next five or ten minutes for the
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: fund I manage, and then we'll be moving on from there.
• 2:43
  Speaker 2: Just an observation from the field. But Ted's Day is just...
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: Because Ted Nugent is.
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: An embodiment of that attitude. I don't care what you
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: say about me because I'm going to go do what
• 2:58
  Speaker 2: I do. And we all have different do and whatever
• 3:02
  Speaker 2: our daring do is, we must get up in the
• 3:05
  Speaker 2: morning and, well, do it. Now we're sounding like we're
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: brought to you by a particular hillbilly soda there. But
• 3:15
  Speaker 2: I digress because we must begin with our first thing
• 3:18
  Speaker 2: so we know what we're discussing this morning. Federal Election
• 3:22
  Speaker 2: Commission was hacked just in time for election season. It
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: was enough of a hack attempt to temporarily shut down
• 3:30
  Speaker 2: its web services, including electronic filing systems, disrupting campaign finance
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: reports just a week before the midterms, according to an
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: email that was leaked to Reuters from inside the FEC.
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: They did confirm on Tuesday that its electronic filing system
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: was offline. as its technology staff work to restore service.
• 3:56
  Speaker 2: It declined further comment after saying the FEC's electronic filing
• 4:01
  Speaker 2: system is offline and our staff is actively working to
• 4:05
  Speaker 2: restore service, end quote. Israeli voters are getting mixed messages
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: from exit polling as they don't have data on the
• 4:17
  Speaker 2: election results yet, but exit polls keep swinging one way
• 4:22
  Speaker 2: or another. Right now, Benjamin Netanyahu is without a parliamentary majority,
• 4:29
  Speaker 2: but with exit polls showing his block narrowly ahead of
• 4:32
  Speaker 2: the opponent's, he has the clearest path to build a
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: coalition government. This would involve something that Netanyahu has been
• 4:41
  Speaker 2: good at over his career in Israel, and that's bringing
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: in his main rival, in this case, Gadi Eisenkot, former
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: military chief, and creating a coalition government there. Also on
• 4:57
  Speaker 2: the table is partnering with Arab-led parties, a story that's
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: not well known in the Middle East, that more Arab-elected
• 5:07
  Speaker 2: representation exists in Israel than most other Arab nations. Exit
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: polls released early Wednesday by Israeli TV stations suggested Netanyahu's
• 5:19
  Speaker 2: bloc and Eisenkot's each won about 51 seats, but the
• 5:24
  Speaker 2: actual election results haven't been released. Senior State Department officials
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: said Tuesday the Brazilian opposition candidate that lost by just
• 5:34
  Speaker 2: a percentage point after the polls were left open for
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: two extra hours It will be granted U.S. visas. Flavio
• 5:42
  Speaker 2: Bolsonaro and his family will be welcomed into the United States.
• 5:46
  Speaker 2: The official who leaked the information to the news media
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: said the State Department will issue visas to Bolsonaro and
• 5:55
  Speaker 2: his family to allow them entry into the United States.
• 6:06
  Speaker 4: Experience the power and magic of the ghosts of Christmas Eve,
• 6:10
  Speaker 4: the best of TSO.
• 6:12
  Speaker 5: And more.
• 6:13
  Speaker 4: Make electrifying memories that will last a lifetime. Trans-Siberian Orchestra.

  Speaker 7: For veterans concerned about their alcohol or drug use, seeking
• 7:05
  Speaker 7: help can be the first step toward recovery.
• 7:08
  Speaker 2: Dr.
• 7:08
  Speaker 7: Joseph Liberto, National Mental Health Director for Substance Use Disorders
• 7:12
  Speaker 7: with the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs, has more.
• 7:16
  Speaker 8: May is Mental Health Month, and VA is committed to
• 7:19
  Speaker 8: letting every veteran know that help is available. Substance use
• 7:23
  Speaker 8: disorder can harm your physical and mental health, but it

  Speaker 9: Considered by most, optimized curcumin is one of the few
• 8:07
  Speaker 9: bioavailable and highly absorbable curcumin products on the market. Hi,
• 8:13
  Speaker 9: I'm Dr. Mitch. Since most chronic diseases have inflammation, our
• 8:18
  Speaker 9: optimized curcumin seems to be a perfect addition to any
• 8:22
  Speaker 9: nutritional program. It makes sense to me that preventing or
• 8:26
  Speaker 9: reducing inflammation is a key component to our overall health.
• 8:31
  Speaker 9: The Mayo Clinic found that curcumin can decrease swelling and inflammation,
• 8:36
  Speaker 9: has antioxidant properties, and research suggests that curcumin can prevent cancer,
• 8:43
  Speaker 9: or at least slow the spread of cancer, and in
• 8:46
  Speaker 9: many instances make chemotherapy more effective. It protects our healthy
• 8:51
  Speaker 9: cells even from radiation. TotalWellness.com, where we help you to
• 8:57

• 9:05
  Speaker 10: warn you about telephone scammers pretending to be government employees.
• 9:10
  Speaker 10: Some of these scammers may say threatening things like you
• 9:13
  Speaker 10: will be arrested if you don't make payments or provide
• 9:16
  Speaker 10: personal information. Do not fall for these tricks. These calls
• 9:21

  Speaker 10: call like this, hang up. Never give the caller your

  Speaker 10: personal information, like your Social Security number or bank account,
• 9:37
  Speaker 10: or send money in any form, cash, gift cards, wire transfers,
• 9:42
  Speaker 10: or prepaid debit cards. Report the call to our law
• 9:46
  Speaker 10: enforcement arm, the Office of the Inspector General, at oig.ssa.gov.
• 9:53
  Speaker 10: Share this information with your friends and family.
• 9:58
  Speaker 5: Hi, everybody.
• 9:59
  Speaker 7: I'm Jack Hanna.
• 10:00
  Speaker 11: Since I was a boy growing up on a farm
• 10:01
  Speaker 11: in Tennessee, I've been fascinated with animals. I'm not only
• 10:04
  Speaker 11: in awe of their beauty and kindness, but also their
• 10:07
  Speaker 11: tireless work ethic.
• 10:08
  Speaker 2: Just look at the birds who.
• 10:09
  Speaker 11: Gather supplies to build nests or Swiss foxes who work
• 10:12
  Speaker 11: hard to provide for their young. Or penguins, who travel
• 10:15
  Speaker 11: up to 500 miles to secure food for their families.
• 10:18
  Speaker 11: Or bush babies, whose impressive jump allows them to navigate
• 10:21
  Speaker 11: the trees and the wild in search of fruit. This
• 10:24
  Speaker 11: remarkable work ethic is shared by our best friends, the canines.
• 10:27
  Speaker 11: We know dogs are our wonderful pets at home, but
• 10:30
  Speaker 11: because of their acute senses, they also perform lifesaving work
• 10:33
  Speaker 11: every day. Dogs keep us safe at airports. They comfort
• 10:36
  Speaker 11: returning veterans, some of whom suffer from PTS. They work
• 10:39
  Speaker 11: with diabetics, alerting them when there's a change in their
• 10:42
  Speaker 11: blood chemistry. Working dogs have a variety of highly trained
• 10:45
  Speaker 11: roles that contribute to society and help those in need.
• 10:47
  Speaker 11: So please join me and American Humane in supporting our
• 10:50

• 10:59
  Speaker 12: Uh-oh, Brad's buzzed.
• 11:01
  Speaker 13: Oh, yeah?
• 11:01
  Speaker 2: Yeah, he's starting with the woots.
• 11:04
  Speaker 14: And now a speech.
• 11:06
  Speaker 15: I just want to say that friendship is about heart.
• 11:10
  Speaker 16: Heart and brain.
• 11:12
  Speaker 2: Who's with me?
• 11:13
  Speaker 11: Good thing is, he knows when he's buzzed.
• 11:15
  Speaker 17: And my brain is saying, when it's time to go home,
• 11:18
  Speaker 17: somebody call me a ride.
• 11:19
  Speaker 7: Love that guy.
• 11:20
  Speaker 16: Me too.
• 11:21
  Speaker 18: Know your buzzed warning signs? Call for a ride when
• 11:23
  Speaker 18: it's time to go home. Buzz driving is drunk driving.
• 11:28
  Speaker 6: Did you know that more than half our household energy
• 11:31
  Speaker 6: costs go to heating and cooling? Energy efficiency isn't just
• 11:35
  Speaker 6: good for the environment. It means lower utility bills, too.
• 11:39
  Speaker 6: One way to reduce your energy waste is a home
• 11:42
  Speaker 6: energy assessment. Your utility company can help, or you can
• 11:46
  Speaker 6: learn how to do it yourself at energysavers.gov. That's energysavers.gov.
• 11:51
  Speaker 6: You'll learn to look for air leaks around windows and doors,
• 11:54
  Speaker 6: check ducts for holes, and improve your insulation. Another time
• 11:58
  Speaker 6: to cut energy costs is when you shop for a
• 12:00
  Speaker 6: new appliance. Look for the Energy Star logo and read
• 12:04
  Speaker 6: the Energy Guide label.
• 12:06
  Speaker 2: And there are.
• 12:06
  Speaker 6: Day-to-day things you can do. Lower your thermostat in winter
• 12:10
  Speaker 6: and raise it in the summer. Close fireplace dampers when
• 12:13
  Speaker 6: they're not in use. And keep air filters clean. For
• 12:16

  Speaker 19: As a family member or friend, you may be the
• 12:32
  Speaker 19: first to notice when a veteran you love has been
• 12:35
  Speaker 19: going through changes. Things like withdrawing, drinking more, or increased
• 12:40
  Speaker 19: anger could be a sign of a larger health concern.
• 12:43
  Speaker 20: But help is available. Listen to hundreds of inspiring stories

• 13:15
  Speaker 1: This is Independence from Virginia. Again, first thing today by
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: Joe Thomas on the Talk Media Network.
• 13:25
  Speaker 2: Thank you for joining us on this Ted's D. And
• 13:30
  Speaker 2: if you don't know what your Tedness is, I've got
• 13:32
  Speaker 2: some tips if you want to ask me. Truth be told,
• 13:35
  Speaker 2: he's not lying.
• 13:36
  Speaker 20: Nothing matters.
• 13:55
  Speaker 15: To me i.
• 13:56
  Speaker 2: Swear a lot of beach clubs involved.
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: In that believe it or not did.
• 14:09
  Speaker 2: I do this without music They said, I'm sorry, Joe,
• 14:29
  Speaker 2: you're just too darn old to play rock and roll
• 14:31
  Speaker 2: music anymore. So I said, gee, I wonder if we
• 14:35
  Speaker 2: can do this without eight records an hour. And sure enough,
• 14:39
  Speaker 2: go figure. The world provides enough stuff to talk about.
• 14:45
  Speaker 2: And then, you know, when you and I get going,
• 14:47
  Speaker 2: you wind up throwing out half this stuff. At 434-882-4217,
• 14:54
  Speaker 2: the clacking sound you hear in the background is Larry
• 14:59
  Speaker 2: Sabato walking down the hall, and the sound is, of course,
• 15:02
  Speaker 2: his crystal balls clanking together out there to get one
• 15:06
  Speaker 2: last run of fundraising for the University of Virginia, where
• 15:09
  Speaker 2: he calls himself home. And updates his list of races
• 15:19
  Speaker 2: and according to Larry there'll be like a eight seat
• 15:27
  Speaker 2: majority for the Democrats if it goes the way he
• 15:32
  Speaker 2: prognosticates it it could be more like 30 seat majority
• 15:42
  Speaker 2: if it breaks all his way But Larry has left
• 15:47
  Speaker 2: the reservation some time ago and is still riding the
• 15:51
  Speaker 2: reputation of somebody who, by his own pre-qualifications—and I don't
• 15:59
  Speaker 2: mean what he's qualified to do, but he will pre-qualify
• 16:03
  Speaker 2: all of his predictions so that he can always claim
• 16:07
  Speaker 2: he was right. I have friends like this. They'll predict
• 16:12
  Speaker 2: something bad happens. And then when the bad thing doesn't happen,
• 16:16
  Speaker 2: he's like, well, yeah, I was wrong, but everything worked
• 16:19
  Speaker 2: out good, so I'm happy. Or if everything goes cattywampus,
• 16:24
  Speaker 2: he says, well, I have the benefit of being right.
• 16:29
  Speaker 2: So Larry says the Democrats are on track to win
• 16:34
  Speaker 2: 225 seats in the next Congress. But Larry is the
• 16:39
  Speaker 2: Lord High Mugwump of a polling world. that has left
• 16:43
  Speaker 2: the reservation in and of itself because it is decided
• 16:48
  Speaker 2: based on who pays for it, they can decide these elections.
• 16:53
  Speaker 2: And to be fair, when only 45% of us or
• 16:56
  Speaker 2: 50% of us turn out, we're sort of seeding the field,
• 17:03
  Speaker 2: aren't we? So prove them all wrong, turn out to
• 17:12
  Speaker 2: vote We've got a week left. This time next week,
• 17:16
  Speaker 2: we'll have, outside of places like California, some idea of
• 17:21
  Speaker 2: what Congress looks like. I just published a piece at DailySignal.com.
• 17:28
  Speaker 2: I don't know what your state is like. I cover
• 17:30
  Speaker 2: Virginia for the Daily Signal. You and me, we can
• 17:32
  Speaker 2: get into everything. But there's thousands of school board races happening.
• 17:40
  Speaker 2: And aside from the local CBS affiliate here in our
• 17:44
  Speaker 2: flagship city of Charlottesville, hardly anyone is covering this story
• 17:50
  Speaker 2: that the trans recruiter, I mean, I'm sorry, not trans recruiter,
• 17:58
  Speaker 2: the emotional and social coach for the local school district
• 18:06
  Speaker 2: apparently was using his position to take other positions. 20
• 18:12
  Speaker 2: allegations of sexual misconduct with elementary school girls. And the
• 18:23
  Speaker 2: cover-up has already started to become obvious. The county police,
• 18:27
  Speaker 2: not wanting to go along with the narrative, have started
• 18:30
  Speaker 2: arresting school board members. in a way that I know
• 18:35
  Speaker 2: many of you would wish you, these corrupt politicians, would
• 18:39
  Speaker 2: actually have to do a perp walk every now and then.
• 18:42
  Speaker 2: I wrote a piece about why your school board elections
• 18:50
  Speaker 2: are important and why, because we, it's so sad. 70%
• 18:57
  Speaker 2: of your local tax dollars are spent by these people
• 19:00
  Speaker 2: and nobody knows anything about it. And sadly, I would
• 19:09
  Speaker 2: say just an anecdotal thumbnail back of the napkin sketch,
• 19:15
  Speaker 2: 70% of the people who are running to get onto
• 19:17
  Speaker 2: your school board are doing it the same way a
• 19:21
  Speaker 2: college baseball player goes to single A to play right
• 19:26
  Speaker 2: after the baseball draft because they want to someday make the, quote,
• 19:31
  Speaker 2: major leagues. So what you wind up with are school
• 19:38
  Speaker 2: boards full of wannabes, school boards full of people who
• 19:41
  Speaker 2: see a U.S. senator or a governor or a Department
• 19:47
  Speaker 2: of Education director, you know, any number of government official
• 19:52
  Speaker 2: reflections in their mirrors. And they don't care about whether
• 19:57
  Speaker 2: your kids can read or not. They're just worried about
• 20:00
  Speaker 2: their future political aspirations. So when the trans agenda becomes
• 20:11
  Speaker 2: promoted because Democrats won the statehouse, when the trans agenda
• 20:16
  Speaker 2: must be instilled in all of our schools so that
• 20:19
  Speaker 2: we can get behind a podium and our Lord High
• 20:23
  Speaker 2: Mugwamp governors and attorneys general can say, look at how
• 20:29
  Speaker 2: open-minded we are towards trans and but we can't call
• 20:35
  Speaker 2: it trans recruiter, emotional and social health counselor. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
• 20:42
  Speaker 2: counselor is a good word. And it begins there because
• 20:50
  Speaker 2: this is how we become awake instead of woke. And
• 20:58
  Speaker 2: I wrote in the column I published on the Daily
• 21:01
  Speaker 2: Signal website yesterday, dailysignal.com. Again, you can find it. if
• 21:05
  Speaker 2: you go to my social media page, Seville Joe Thomas
• 21:08
  Speaker 2: on Facebook, that if this had been a Catholic diocese
• 21:21
  Speaker 2: or a Boy Scout troop, my brothers and sisters in
• 21:27
  Speaker 2: the news media wouldn't be able to find enough space
• 21:31
  Speaker 2: in their Substack account to publish these stories. Their websites
• 21:36
  Speaker 2: would crash under the weight of all the column inches
• 21:40
  Speaker 2: being filled about how yet again, but because it's a
• 21:44
  Speaker 2: guy who is supposed to talk to kids about sexuality
• 21:48
  Speaker 2: in elementary school. So become awake, not woke, and maybe
• 21:53
  Speaker 2: we'll see a higher voter turnout and we can tell
• 21:56
  Speaker 2: Larry Sabato that it's time to take his crystal balls
• 21:59
  Speaker 2: and go home.
• 22:02
  Speaker 9: Did you know that healthy arteries make a gas? Yes,
• 22:07
  Speaker 9: actually three known gases. Hi, I'm Dr. Mitch. And nitric
• 22:12
  Speaker 9: oxide is a gas that's readily made all day long
• 22:17
  Speaker 9: to keep our arteries open by relaxing the blood vessel walls.
• 22:21
  Speaker 9: By doing this, our circulation is increased, bringing blood, oxygen,
• 22:27
  Speaker 9: and nutrients to every part of your body. Both age
• 22:31
  Speaker 9: and poor diet can lead to a loss of this
• 22:34
  Speaker 9: precious gas, and in turn, blood pressure can go up,
• 22:38
  Speaker 9: energy can go down, and you can get tingling in
• 22:41
  Speaker 9: your hands and feet. Well, our product, Ultimate Nitric Oxide,

  Speaker 9: Considered by most, optimized curcumin is one of the few
• 24:07
  Speaker 9: bioavailable and highly absorbable curcumin products on the market. Hi,
• 24:12
  Speaker 9: I'm Dr.
• 24:13
  Speaker 2: Mitch.
• 24:14
  Speaker 9: Since most chronic diseases have inflammation, our optimized curcumin seems
• 24:19
  Speaker 9: to be a perfect addition to any nutritional program. It
• 24:23
  Speaker 9: makes sense to me that preventing or reducing inflammation is
• 24:28
  Speaker 9: a key component to our overall health. The Mayo Clinic
• 24:32
  Speaker 9: found that curcumin can decrease swelling and inflammation, has antioxidant properties,
• 24:39
  Speaker 9: and research suggests that curcumin can prevent cancer, or at
• 24:43
  Speaker 9: least slow the spread of cancer, and in many instances
• 24:46
  Speaker 9: make chemotherapy more effective. It protects our healthy cells even

  Speaker 12: Uh-oh, Brad's buzzed.
• 25:56
  Speaker 3: Oh, yeah?
• 25:57
  Speaker 2: Yeah, he's starting with the woots.
• 25:59
  Speaker 12: And now a speech.
• 26:02
  Speaker 18: I just want to say that friendship is about heart.
• 26:05
  Speaker 15: Heart and brain.
• 26:07
  Speaker 2: Who's with me?
• 26:08
  Speaker 11: Good thing is, he knows when he's buzzed.
• 26:10
  Speaker 17: And my brain is saying, when it's time to go home,
• 26:13
  Speaker 17: somebody call me a ride.
• 26:15
  Speaker 12: Love that guy.
• 26:16
  Speaker 6: Me too.
• 26:16
  Speaker 18: Know your buzzed warning signs? Call for a ride when
• 26:19
  Speaker 18: it's time to go home. Buzz driving is drunk driving.
• 26:23
  Speaker 6: Did you know that more than half our household energy
• 26:25
  Speaker 6: costs go to heating and cooling? Energy efficiency isn't just
• 26:29
  Speaker 6: good for the environment. It means lower utility bills, too.
• 26:34
  Speaker 6: One way to reduce your energy waste is a home
• 26:36
  Speaker 6: energy assessment. Your utility company can help, or you can
• 26:40
  Speaker 6: learn how to do it yourself at energysavers.gov. That's energysavers.gov.
• 26:46
  Speaker 6: You'll learn to look for air leaks around windows and doors,
• 26:49
  Speaker 6: check ducts for holes, and improve your insulation. Another time
• 26:53
  Speaker 6: to cut energy costs is when you shop for a
• 26:55
  Speaker 6: new appliance. Look for the Energy Star logo and read
• 26:58
  Speaker 6: the Energy Guide label. And there are day-to-day things you
• 27:02
  Speaker 6: can do. Lower your thermostat in winter and raise it
• 27:05
  Speaker 6: in the summer. Close fireplace dampers when they're not in use.
• 27:09
  Speaker 6: And keep air filters clean. For more tips on saving

  Speaker 1: First thing today by Joe Thomas on the Talk Media Network.
• 28:19
  Speaker 15: Kareem texts in to 434-882-4217.
• 28:20
  Speaker 8: Joe, Democrats get 250 plus.
• 28:21
  Speaker 6: 250 plus seats.
• 28:21
  Speaker 2: I want to pull in the Knesset elections. If I may, again,
• 28:44
  Speaker 2: a community with far closer representation to what America should be,
• 28:51
  Speaker 2: even though a far smaller country, Britain as well, New
• 28:55
  Speaker 2: Hampshire gets it right. I think New Hampshire has 400
• 29:04
  Speaker 2: members of its statehouse. The United States is a country.
• 29:12
  Speaker 2: Only has 535. Teachers get paid. State troopers get paid.
• 29:22
  Speaker 2: Roads get paved. Schools get money that they spend on cronyism.
• 29:28
  Speaker 2: So don't tell me bigger representation bodies don't work, which
• 29:35
  Speaker 2: is 80% of the argument. And I'm actually going to
• 29:37
  Speaker 2: pull Mr. Crystal Balls back in.
• 29:40
  Speaker 3: Here.
• 29:40
  Speaker 2: First interview I ever conducted upon arriving in Virginia to
• 29:47
  Speaker 2: move my talk radio career into a new direction was
• 29:53
  Speaker 2: combining my expertise running music radio stations with doing a
• 29:58
  Speaker 2: couple of years of talk radio. all of a sudden, here,
• 30:01
  Speaker 2: here are your keys. I oddly got sued for stealing
• 30:06
  Speaker 2: all the information I came to town with. But again,
• 30:09
  Speaker 2: I can't talk a lot about this because it's been redacted.
• 30:13
  Speaker 2: But I can tell you that the first interview I
• 30:16
  Speaker 2: conducted in Virginia, because he had just released a book
• 30:22
  Speaker 2: called The Case for a New Constitution, was Larry Sabato himself.
• 30:26
  Speaker 2: I am proud to say that after my interview with him,
• 30:30
  Speaker 2: the Center for Politics at the University of Virginia issued
• 30:34
  Speaker 2: a statement that Larry would only be doing nationally syndicated
• 30:40
  Speaker 2: interviews from here on out, and it would not be
• 30:43
  Speaker 2: available to the local press, and we had underlings to
• 30:47
  Speaker 2: deal with the local press. I'm like, oh, I pat
• 30:52
  Speaker 2: myself on the back every time. I broke Larry Sabato.
• 30:55
  Speaker 2: He didn't want to talk to local brass. And it's
• 30:58
  Speaker 2: for the simple reason that when we sat down and
• 31:01
  Speaker 2: understand carefully, this is 2007. And I had just maybe
• 31:07
  Speaker 2: six months earlier made Margaret Downey of the Free Thought
• 31:11
  Speaker 2: Society storm out of my studio by asking her which
• 31:16
  Speaker 2: parts of the Ten Commandments didn't she groove with? And
• 31:19
  Speaker 2: maybe we could work on, you know, like do a
• 31:24
  Speaker 2: catechism or something. Try to heal these wounds. And she
• 31:28
  Speaker 2: blustered and said dumb things. And I called her on
• 31:33
  Speaker 2: the dumb things she said. She stormed out of my studio.
• 31:35
  Speaker 2: She still won. She still won the momentary battle of
• 31:40
  Speaker 2: getting the Ten Commandments out of our classrooms, sadly, and
• 31:44
  Speaker 2: off of our courthouse walls. And since then, we have
• 31:49
  Speaker 2: more lying, more murder, more adultery. Good job, Mary. Thanks.
• 31:58
  Speaker 2: Being our best selves. So I was kind of already
• 32:03
  Speaker 2: full of this idea of like, oh, I can be
• 32:05
  Speaker 2: an asshat. I can be a jerk to whoever I'm interviewing,
• 32:09
  Speaker 2: and that'll be fun. So Larry had this new book
• 32:13
  Speaker 2: out called The Case for a New Constitution. It had
• 32:18
  Speaker 2: just come out. I sat down with him at a
• 32:22
  Speaker 2: book signing event. Which I thought was interesting because Larry
• 32:27
  Speaker 2: keeps probably half a dozen staffers from the upper classes
• 32:33
  Speaker 2: of UVA's student body. But he makes them all dress
• 32:36
  Speaker 2: like congressional staffers. Navy blazer, white shirt, red tie. And
• 32:43
  Speaker 2: they all around him like, you know, he's the senator
• 32:47
  Speaker 2: from Virginia.
• 32:49
  Speaker 15: Mr.
• 32:50
  Speaker 2: Sabato, do you want more? Oh, my gosh. This is
• 32:53
  Speaker 2: a little. Douglas Adams almost. So anyway, my first question
• 33:00
  Speaker 2: to Larry was, all right, Larry, so let's start with
• 33:02
  Speaker 2: what's wrong with the old Constitution. And he, you know,
• 33:07
  Speaker 2: the temerity of this person speaking this way to me.
• 33:13
  Speaker 2: And he did indulge me with his thought that the
• 33:16
  Speaker 2: United States had grown too large for the U.S. Constitution.
• 33:22
  Speaker 2: Larry exposing his crystal balls to the fact that he
• 33:28
  Speaker 2: is somebody that believes because the Internet didn't exist when
• 33:33
  Speaker 2: the Constitution was written, that the Constitution doesn't apply to
• 33:38
  Speaker 2: the Internet, that kind of guy. And Kareem, your point
• 33:43
  Speaker 2: is exactly where George Mason was. when he said the
• 33:48
  Speaker 2: most singularly most important thing by his insertion of this
• 33:54
  Speaker 2: as the number one thing he wanted in the Bill
• 33:56
  Speaker 2: of Rights was an apportionment that would not crest 50,000 people. Now,
• 34:05
  Speaker 2: that was just property owning Caucasian males at the time.
• 34:10
  Speaker 2: So let's expand it out for a world that women
• 34:15
  Speaker 2: and minorities that weren't allowed to vote at the time,
• 34:20
  Speaker 2: they could be counted, and there were three-fifths of them.
• 34:28
  Speaker 2: So you say 150,000, and that was George Mason. But
• 34:37
  Speaker 2: even so, even so, if you just go back to
• 34:40
  Speaker 2: where we were in 1929, when the racists came out
• 34:46
  Speaker 2: from under their white sheets and engaged in Congress, freezing
• 34:51
  Speaker 2: the size of the House because there were too many
• 34:54
  Speaker 2: prosperous black communities that were sending black Congress people to Washington.
• 35:00
  Speaker 2: We couldn't have that going on any longer. So they
• 35:03
  Speaker 2: wrote and passed the 1929 Permanent Reapportionment Act. And since then,
• 35:09
  Speaker 2: our population has tripled. giving Larry Sabato the case to
• 35:13
  Speaker 2: say our country's too big. And it started me on
• 35:19
  Speaker 2: a path like trying to ruminate that idea. And I said, no,
• 35:22
  Speaker 2: our country isn't too big. Our Congress is too small.
• 35:30
  Speaker 2: Our ask of Congress is too large. We expect Congress
• 35:35
  Speaker 2: to do things that our states should be doing. all
• 35:38
  Speaker 2: because we haven't actually extinguished the Civil War. See, the
• 35:44
  Speaker 2: guys in Washington, they know the embers of the Civil
• 35:47
  Speaker 2: War are still burning under the underbrush in Appomattox, Virginia.
• 35:52
  Speaker 2: They didn't put it out. They stopped blowing the bellows
• 35:59
  Speaker 2: on it. But that can happen again. But if we take...
• 36:07
  Speaker 2: New Hampshire's model never mind the Knesset or British Parliament's
• 36:12
  Speaker 2: model and say hey maybe we need smaller districts with
• 36:17
  Speaker 2: fewer people in them we might actually be able to
• 36:21
  Speaker 2: get better representation and more people because it's my contention
• 36:29
  Speaker 2: that easily 75% of Americans are constitutionally considered conservative They
• 36:37
  Speaker 2: believe in the Bill of Rights. They believe in those tenants.
• 36:42
  Speaker 2: They may be jaded by the fact that it hasn't
• 36:46
  Speaker 2: really been enacted by government very much, but you have
• 36:52
  Speaker 2: more opportunity to send more people to undo these unconstitutional
• 37:00
  Speaker 2: usurpations— I' ll use that word for intent— of our God-given rights
• 37:06
  Speaker 2: and our ignorance of what the government's actual job is,
• 37:11
  Speaker 2: which is to protect those. So as Larry's book said,
• 37:18
  Speaker 2: it's not a new constitution. We need to stop pretending
• 37:22
  Speaker 2: that we're still living under what the constitution asked us
• 37:25
  Speaker 2: to do and go back to it. Because the constitution,
• 37:29
  Speaker 2: even though it failed the apportionment test, because we allowed
• 37:36
  Speaker 2: a law to be passed. Guess what? It was just
• 37:39
  Speaker 2: a law. It wasn't a constitutional amendment or anything. So
• 37:45
  Speaker 2: somebody can go to Congress, write a bill that says,
• 37:48
  Speaker 2: I want to repeal the 1929 Permanent Reapportionment Act, and
• 37:53
  Speaker 2: then ask all the race baiters if they don't believe
• 37:57
  Speaker 2: black communities should have better representation in Congress.

  Speaker 23: At Hot Shot Secret, we share the science behind common
• 38:04
  Speaker 23: diesel problems and their solutions.
• 38:06
  Speaker 1: For example, diesel fuel cetane levels.
• 38:08
  Speaker 23: In many states, the cetane rating in diesel fuel is
• 38:11
  Speaker 23: 42 to 45. Most diesel engines operate more efficiently with
• 38:15
  Speaker 23: a cetane rating of 48 to 50. One treatment of
• 38:18
  Speaker 23: Hot Shot Secret Diesel Extreme will raise your cetane seven points,
• 38:21
  Speaker 23: increase fuel economy, and improve cold starts. Due to a
• 38:25
  Speaker 23: cleaner burn, there are less hydrocarbons and particulate matter in
• 38:28
  Speaker 23: your exhaust. This reduces the blockage of your diesel particulate filter.
• 38:32
  Speaker 23: Using Diesel Extreme generates 83% less DPF regenerations. The 6-in-1
• 38:38
  Speaker 23: Diesel Extreme formula also includes the most concentrated detergent on
• 38:42
  Speaker 23: the market, lubricity enhancer, water demulsifier, rust and corrosion inhibitors,
• 38:47
  Speaker 23: and a fuel stabilizer.

  Speaker 14: Exercise is hard. So is maintaining a healthy diet. Of course,
• 41:02
  Speaker 14: neither is half as hard as dying. Sadly, type 2 diabetes,
• 41:08
  Speaker 14: heart disease, and stroke kill nearly a million people a year.
• 41:12
  Speaker 14: Even sadder, most of these deaths are preventable with a
• 41:15
  Speaker 14: few lifestyle changes, including regular activity, healthier eating, and not smoking.
• 41:21
  Speaker 14: Talk to your doctor about your risk for type 2
• 41:24
  Speaker 14: diabetes and heart disease. And if your doctor recommends lifestyle
• 41:27
  Speaker 14: changes or medication, listen. The reason so many die is
• 41:32
  Speaker 14: because not enough are willing to change. You can stop it,
• 41:36
  Speaker 14: starting right now. It's your life. Listen to your doctor.

  Speaker 1: First thing today by Joe Thomas on the Talk Media Network.
• 44:21
  Speaker 2: On this Tedstee, one of the things in the right
• 44:26
  Speaker 2: of the unborn is in great peril. And the rights
• 44:32
  Speaker 2: of an individual to protect the unborn is in great peril.
• 44:38
  Speaker 2: There are attempts to criminalize opposition to abortion. And there's
• 44:44
  Speaker 2: a story out of Chicago that I think highlights it.
• 44:48
  Speaker 2: But Catholicism, Constantine's church, I know it's Peter and all that,
• 44:57
  Speaker 2: but Catholicism as we know it today is Constantine's church.
• 45:05
  Speaker 2: The Romans, you know, art of the deal moment in Nicaea. So,
• 45:11
  Speaker 2: you know, but Catholics have a big problem. And it starts,
• 45:16
  Speaker 2: you know, it's funny. It starts with guys like Tim Kaine,
• 45:21
  Speaker 2: one of the most notable Catholics out there.
• 45:24
  Speaker 13: You state, and this is a quote from Secretary Rubio,
• 45:27
  Speaker 13: our rights come from God, our creator, not from our laws,
• 45:31
  Speaker 13: not from our government.
• 45:32
  Speaker 2: Now, keep in mind, he's he's. quoting a man whose
• 45:36
  Speaker 2: mother grew up in communist cuba just just for reference
• 45:41
  Speaker 2: i find that very very troubling and it gets more troubling.
• 45:46
  Speaker 13: Um i'm a devout person i was a missionary in
• 45:49
  Speaker 13: honduras we've got other devout folks in this room.
• 45:52
  Speaker 2: Notice what he doesn't say is.
• 45:54
  Speaker 13: Catholic christian jewish muslim american.
• 45:57
  Speaker 2: Doesn't mention catholic at all why not tim So the
• 46:04
  Speaker 2: Catholic Church, the Catholic Diocese of Chicago is about to
• 46:12
  Speaker 2: bestow honor from Cardinal Blaise Cupich this week and the
• 46:22
  Speaker 2: Chicago Archdiocese. Michael Sachs is a huge Democrat donor. And
• 46:32
  Speaker 2: so pro-life... Chicagoans are a little salty about this. Now,
• 46:42
  Speaker 2: why is Michael Sachs important to the Catholic Archdiocese of Chicago? Well,
• 46:48
  Speaker 2: he has a lot of money, and that always helps.
• 46:54
  Speaker 2: But Illinois Right to Life groups have jumped into this
• 47:02
  Speaker 2: and insisted that the Catholic Church not bestow this award
• 47:07
  Speaker 2: on somebody who has given so much money to a
• 47:10
  Speaker 2: group that has done so much to kill unborn babies.
• 47:14
  Speaker 24: Democratic donor Michael Sachs is often mentioned by Mayor Brandon
• 47:18
  Speaker 24: Johnson as someone who uses his money to influence policy.
• 47:22
  Speaker 24: But Cardinal Blaise Cupich is honoring Sachs this week for
• 47:26
  Speaker 24: his contributions to the community.
• 47:28
  Speaker 2: This is from Channel 7 in the Windy City.
• 47:31
  Speaker 24: It's a move that outrages the Illinois right to life.
• 47:35
  Speaker 24: The award is called Nostra Aetate. It is named after
• 47:38
  Speaker 24: a 60-year-old Catholic doctrine that declares the Roman Catholic Church's
• 47:42
  Speaker 24: relationship with non-Christian religions.
• 47:45
  Speaker 5: There is a long relationship in the Chicago religious community,
• 47:53
  Speaker 5: among all religious traditions, organized around Nostra Aetate.
• 47:57
  Speaker 24: Especially with Chicago's Jewish community, Cardinal Blaise Cupich is naming
• 48:01
  Speaker 24: Jewish businessman Michael Sachs with the Nostra Aetate Award this week.
• 48:06
  Speaker 2: And that's not a problem. That's actually, you know, a
• 48:10
  Speaker 2: kind of, you know, open-mindedness that we need more of.
• 48:15
  Speaker 2: But what they're mad about is how much money over
• 48:19
  Speaker 2: time that Saks has given to Planned Parenthood and other
• 48:29
  Speaker 2: abortionists over time. Mary Kate Zander, president of Illinois Right
• 48:40
  Speaker 2: to Life, says this is an individual who clearly does
• 48:43
  Speaker 2: not share the convictions of the Catholic Church, and that's
• 48:48
  Speaker 2: very obvious. Now, the question is, does this award by
• 48:52
  Speaker 2: its own existence say, well, we're going to acknowledge, because
• 48:58
  Speaker 2: a Jewish man The Catholic Church, as I understand and understand,
• 49:04
  Speaker 2: I follow the guy who said maybe we can print
• 49:06
  Speaker 2: the Bibles and give them to people in their own language.
• 49:15
  Speaker 2: As far as I understand it, the Catholic Bible contains
• 49:18
  Speaker 2: all the stuff. from the Old Testament that Sachs is
• 49:24
  Speaker 2: supposed to follow. This becomes the problem with this zeal
• 49:30
  Speaker 2: amongst high-ranking Democrats to promote abortions. And the bigger question is,
• 49:47
  Speaker 2: what do Catholics believe when it comes to abortion? I mean,
• 49:54
  Speaker 2: the Pope himself is a kid of Chicago. Very interested
• 50:00
  Speaker 2: in apparently pulling some strings to get this kid from
• 50:04
  Speaker 2: the Los Angeles Dodgers, the Detroit pitcher, signed as a
• 50:08
  Speaker 2: free agent into Chicago. But This has become, over the
• 50:18
  Speaker 2: last 10 years, a quiet battleground in faith because Catholics
• 50:28
  Speaker 2: believe that life is sacred. But the church is backpedaling
• 50:36
  Speaker 2: from it from a simple reason. The same reason a
• 50:40
  Speaker 2: baseball team will hold Pope Day On the south side,
• 50:50
  Speaker 2: pardon me, on the north side, don't want to offend,
• 50:51
  Speaker 2: sorry for you guys, WJOL. But they would hold this
• 51:00
  Speaker 2: promotion to put more butts in the seats, to sell
• 51:04
  Speaker 2: more tickets. So the Catholic Church backtracks on its position
• 51:10
  Speaker 2: of abortion and the sanctity of life in order to
• 51:15
  Speaker 2: fill more pews. Is that, and this has always been
• 51:21
  Speaker 2: a question for me, is that not the purest form
• 51:28
  Speaker 2: of pandering? If you're the head of the Las Vegas archdiocese,
• 51:41
  Speaker 2: do you say prostitution is okay by the Catholic church?
• 51:46
  Speaker 2: at least in your diocese, because so much of it
• 51:49
  Speaker 2: takes place in Las Vegas. And I'm not saying ignore
• 51:55
  Speaker 2: the issue or pretend it doesn't exist. I'm saying weigh
• 51:59
  Speaker 2: in and say, we got to get Father Frank on this.
• 52:02
  Speaker 2: Father Frank Pavone, priest for life. Because this story, did
• 52:10
  Speaker 2: Leslie Palma, his staffer, just text me yesterday? I distinctly
• 52:16
  Speaker 2: remember hearing from her as Virginia is getting ready to
• 52:20
  Speaker 2: not only elevate abortion to a constitutional right, by doing
• 52:25
  Speaker 2: so could make this conversation broadcast over the air. Criminal.
• 52:31
  Speaker 2: I was talking to a lawyer yesterday. Joe, if you
• 52:35
  Speaker 2: broadcast something that talks about not having an abortion or
• 52:38
  Speaker 2: restricting abortion access, you could be charged with I said,
• 52:43
  Speaker 2: that seems like an extrapolation, but anything that gets in
• 52:47
  Speaker 2: the way of a woman pursuing her right to an abortion.
• 52:51
  Speaker 12: Crime across the country is at an all-time high. It
• 52:54
  Speaker 12: feels like even a family road trip is taking a risk.
• 52:57
  Speaker 12: We don't want the feeling of being unprotected and vulnerable.
