  Speaker 1: Already then Jack Douglass with you the Power Hour on
• 0:02
  Speaker 1: sixtend double the UTV and the number eight two one
• 0:04
  Speaker 1: nine eight eighty six A two one WUTV. And I
• 0:06
  Speaker 1: told you it wasn't over in Whitehall yet, Zach. Do
• 0:08
  Speaker 1: you remember? Do you remember when I looked at you
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: and I said, hey, Zach, it isn't over in Whitehall yet.
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: Do you remember that day.
• 0:14
  Speaker 2: The police officer or sorry, the recall, Yeah, the recall
• 0:19
  Speaker 2: that they were trying to do.
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: I told you it wasn't all it's not. And I've
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: got that story here before you get out of here.
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: I just you know, you knew this was not gonna stop.
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: You knew it. Billionaire Stephen Kluebeck. Are you familiar with
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: Stephen Klueback? It was probably late fifties, isn't it. He's
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: been arrested on a fellowy charge of attempting to prevent
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: or dissuade a victim or witness from testifying. According to TMZ,
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: Handcuff taken into custody by La County Sheriff's deputies in
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: West Hollywood on Tuesday morning, though he was released a
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: few hours later after posting a three hundred thousand dollars bond.
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: It's actually unclear unclear what his arrest relates to. Now,
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: why is it a big story that why this billionaire
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: got arrested. Well, well, it seems that he parted ways
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: with mister Swalwell, that he had been a big supporter
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: of the Democrats and Eric Swalwell, and after he was
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: after he got into hot water for all his sexual
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: assault charges with u with several women earlier in the year,
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: the billionaire said, yeah, we're no longer tight, don't expect
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: anything from me, And suddenly suddenly he's arrested. I just
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: thought that was kind of interesting. He publicly cut ties
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: with Swalwell, even kicked him out of his California mansion
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: after the misconduct allegations. He wants over a million dollars
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: that he spent supporting Swalwell returned. That's kind of funny,
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: isn't it, Because people here like you got to return
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: those campaign contributions. This is a campaign contributor saying get
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: me my money back. That's that is unique. While I'm
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: thinking about that, Shared Brown, Shared Brown wants to be
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: in the same Share Brown wants to displace Senator John Tusted.
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: He is on campaign commercial number three now calling out
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: John Shustead saying that he took money from Epstein co conspirator.
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: And I questioned on Facebook this morning, how is it
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: HALLINOI for oif helenoif have the Wexner people not sent
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: the seasoned tosist And several people say he doesn't want
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: a lawsuit because that would call it ted. No, first
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: of all, season desist is not a lawsuit, is just
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: a formal letter from legal counsel saying stop it or
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: I will sue. But if you don't at least fire
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: that shot across the bow, you get nothing. He may
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: be suspected, mister Wexner, may be suspected of being a
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: co conspirator, perhaps even a coo fender with Jeffrey Epstein,
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: but that is not making him a co conspirator. I'm sorry.
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: No prosecution, in fact, no indictment. He was called in
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: to do a deposition. He did that. But anybody could
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: accuse anybody of anything, any time, anywhere, and that's where
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: he stands. You cannot call the man a co conspirator
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: unless he has been indicted, convicted, gone through the process,
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: and to have him constantly you can't get away from that.
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: I had a couple of people go, I haven't seen
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: the commercials. What are you talking about? You apparently do
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: not own a television because you cannot get away every
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: newscast they're on. They're advertising heavily during the news, and
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: I have yet to find out if it's I mean,
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: he's at the end of the commercial, so it's not
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: a pack, it's not a political action committee. I'm sure
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: Brown and I approved this message. He's there, but I
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: cannot believe Wexner has not told him to stop it
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: or we will sue. I'm not all that surprise, quite frankly,
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: that Senator Houstead has kept it above board, kept it,
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: you know, like Michelle Obama said, when they go low,
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: we go high. I think Shared forgot that part. But
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: Housted's commercials have been just very positive. Hi, I'm John Houstead.
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: I'm a senator. Here's what I think, Here's where I believe,
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: Here's where I come from. I've had thirty seconds to
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: get you to vote for me. There they are, and
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: I don't see him what I know of him. I
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: don't see him endorsing allowing any negative commercials against Shared Brown.
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: Now that's not to say that somebody will not form
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: a political action committee and do it on his behalf.
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: Those that have been around for a while know that
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: Shared Brown may have one or two things that could
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: be brought up, but to this point, Senator Ustad has
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: not done that, nor has a pack on his behalf.
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: You realize the election is not until November. This is
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: how important this election is. The money is flowing in
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: because Democrats nationwide that this is just drool time for them.
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: They I think they realize they're not going to take
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: the governor's office, but if they can get that Senate
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: seat back, that is a very very big deal. And
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: I am told, although I don't do a lot of
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: youtubing and so forth, I'm told that the the Shared
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: Brown commercials on YouTube, that it's on like everything because
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: you know, the algorithms say where you are when you
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: sign in to watch videos, so they know you're in Ohio.
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: And I'm told that pretty much everything you try to watch,
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: one of his commercials runs first and you can't turn
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: it off. There is no skip this ad. Now, I
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: know you do a lot of online stuff. I'm kitting
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: videos especially have you been seeing them online? Can you
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: verify that story?
• 6:10
  Speaker 3: See with YouTube?
• 6:11
  Speaker 2: It's one of the only things that I actually subscribe to,
• 6:14
  Speaker 2: because that's what I used to listen to music, or
• 6:16
  Speaker 2: if I listen to a documentary or a podcast or
• 6:18
  Speaker 2: whatever i'm listening to, if it's on YouTube, I subscribe
• 6:23
  Speaker 2: to and then I don't see ads. That way, I
• 6:25
  Speaker 2: could play it and then put it in my car
• 6:28
  Speaker 2: and I can bring something else up and it doesn't
• 6:30
  Speaker 2: stop playing.
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: So you're paying for the privilege of not being annoyed.
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: That's good, correct, Yes, yes, Amazon now has you pay
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: for the privilege of not being annoyed, or you can
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: pay a little less for the privilege of not being
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: annoyed quite as much?
• 6:43
  Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, I know they have different tiers.
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: I know.
• 6:46
  Speaker 3: Uh is it Hulu?
• 6:48
  Speaker 2: Maybe that has But you can pay this much for
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: not getting annoyed or just kind of annoyed or just
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: full annoyance.
• 6:55
  Speaker 3: There's like three tiers of.
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: I don't actually because I've been watching two B and
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: what's the other one, Pluto, and I'll watch movies on
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: those and it's there's commercials. But it's kind of like
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: the old days when you would sit in your parents'
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: living room and watch the ABC Sunday Night movie.
• 7:09
  Speaker 3: Yeah, Twov's good. That's a lot of movies that aren't
• 7:12
  Speaker 3: anywhere else.
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: They really do, so they really do. Yeah, A big
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: story that was floating around to me about this murdal
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: in South Carolina and his murder conviction being overturned. A
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: lot of people they read the headlines, only they don't
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: see the story. Let me assure you, this guy's not
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: going anywhere. There was some claims of incorrect prosecutorial conduct,
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: perhaps some jury manipulation, so he will get a new
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: trial on the charge that he killed his wife and
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: his son. However, he is already in prison serving twenty
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: seven years for some financial crimes as well, So it's
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: not like he's going to get out and get bond
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: so we can walk the street and visit with your
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: family at the campground or anything. He is. He's staying
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: locked up on the other charge. I just I wanted
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: people to know it, because they don't make that very
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: clear when they flash those headlines on the screen to
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: get your attention. Cash Battel FBI director Cash Patel, who really, seriously,
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: this is probably insulting. Do you watch the TV show Ghost?
• 8:18
  Speaker 3: No, I don't even know what you're talking about.
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: He really reminds me of the guy that runs the
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: inn on Ghost.
• 8:24
  Speaker 3: I'm gonna guess it's not a compliment.
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: Well, I mean, they just they look alike to me.
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: They resemble each other a great deal. I think they're
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: both you know, Middle Eastern type Indian, Pakistani whatever descent,
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: and they both got the same kind of facial hair
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: trim and everything, and they just they look like each other.
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: It's a good show if that helps. Okay. He gets
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: into a spitting campaign with Senator von Holland, a Democrat
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: out of Maryland, and Van hollend was good. He was
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: throwing some slings and arrows, and he questioned Patel's drinking,
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: asking him whether he knew line to Congress was a crime,
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: to which the FBI director denied doing so and added,
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: maybe next time you run up a seven thousand dollars
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: bar tab, we can talk about it. Van Holland said, Well,
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: public money wasn't used for that whatever. Patel later posted
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: a photo of an FEC file which showed Van Holland
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: sent a campaign spent over twenty eight dollars at the
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: Lobby bar in Washington, DC. Van Holland said during the
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: hearing on Tuesday that it was for a fifty member
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: staff party. Is what that was for. He also pressed
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: Paatel during the hearing over allegations involving its excessive drinking
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: and claims that FBI personnel had difficulty reaching him. He
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: said to Cash Pattel, here's the quote. We do not
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: or we cannot look away from credible, extremely troubling reports
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: about your misconduct. Reports of your being so drunk and
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: hungover that your staff had to force entry into your
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: home are extremely alarming. Patel called the accusations unequivocally, equivocally,
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: categorically false. At one point, Patel accuses Van Holland is
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: slinging Margaritas an l Salvador on a taxpayer dime, triggering
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: another heated exchange. Patel was referring to Van Holnd's visit
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: to the country to see Kilmar Abrego Garcia, an illegal
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: immigrant who was briefly deported to El Salvador before he
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: was returned in charge with human smuggling last year, and
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: he said today I spoke with Garcia and his wife
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: Jennifer and April when I met with him in El Salvador.
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: Trump said he would never set foot in the US again.
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: Case has been about one man alone to thegether blah
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: blah blah blah. So anyway they continue back and forth.
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: Is this is good entertaining stuff. I mean, seriously, if
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: you need something to laugh yourself to sleep, look up
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: the video. Maybe I don't know c SPAN available on YouTube. Yeah, okay,
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: look it up on c SPAN and it Just watch
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: these two guys going at it. It was pretty daggone
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: fun and stupid at the same time. A two ninety
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: eighty six number. Joe's on the Legacy Retirement Group dot
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: com fum lines how are you, Joe?
• 11:07
  Speaker 4: Hey, I'm blessed tell you today.
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: I think I'm fine.
• 11:11
  Speaker 4: All right, Hey, you just talked about the Josh Houston
• 11:15
  Speaker 4: Shared Brown Senate race. If I'm Josh Houston's political advisor,
• 11:20
  Speaker 4: I'm telling him to run one ad. Shared Brown voted
• 11:24
  Speaker 4: with Biden ninety nine percent of the time or more period.
• 11:29
  Speaker 4: That's all the high ones need to know is that
• 11:31
  Speaker 4: Shared Brown is a was a rubber stand for Joe Biden,
• 11:35
  Speaker 4: and I would venture venture to say that over fifty
• 11:38
  Speaker 4: one percent of high ones didn't agree with Joe Biden
• 11:41
  Speaker 4: ninety nine percent of the time. Well, that would be
• 11:43
  Speaker 4: the ad.
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: You would hope, so Joe. But you know what, to
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: be honest with you, I don't know if that's the case,
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: because there are still people out there who they still
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: buy all that crap hook line and singer, and they'll
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: be voting for Amy Acton to be our governor. I
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: don't know. I don't know if we can sway some
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: of those people.
• 12:01
  Speaker 4: Yeah, there's a lot of low information voters out there.
• 12:03
  Speaker 4: But just I think that I think the Biden four
• 12:07
  Speaker 4: years was so bad that even you know, some of
• 12:10
  Speaker 4: the Democrats I believe will vote for Houston over Brown.
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it's entirely possible some of them. Some of them
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: may come around. I know, some are just so dedicated
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: to their TDS that, in fact, they had a buddy
• 12:24
  Speaker 1: that had a little birthday thing last week. Every year
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: I get a note from his daughter, you know, hey,
• 12:28
  Speaker 1: we're having a little celebration for the birthday, and blah
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: blah blah. This year they didn't invite. They're Democrats, and
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: they have become rabid democrats, both of them, unfortunately, and
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: I like both of them. They're wonderful people, but this, uh,
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: this politics thing has completely separated us.
• 12:44
  Speaker 5: I guess, yeah, I agree it's a divided country, but
• 12:49
  Speaker 5: keep on fighting a good fight, and conservatism went out
• 12:54
  Speaker 5: in the end.
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: I hope you are right now. Great week, Thank you, Joe,
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: you two. And that's Have you lost anybody, I mean,
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: like really lost anybody friend, family or whatever over politics
• 13:06
  Speaker 1: during during this forty seven term. No, so you only
• 13:10
  Speaker 1: had like minded people for the most part, or the
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: reasonable people, reasonable people. Okay, yeah, it is bugging me,
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: it is, it is, But I hear you because I
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: just you know, being able to disagree, to have different
• 13:24
  Speaker 1: points of view, different goals, different values, and still live
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: in the same zip code together is really what what
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: this country is around.
• 13:32
  Speaker 3: I mean, I've had some people We're never going to
• 13:35
  Speaker 3: see eye to eye.
• 13:36
  Speaker 2: That's cool, anyway, what are you doing and just don't
• 13:40
  Speaker 2: talk about it?
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: To think that you don't get invited to a little
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: birthday gathering or something, that's just uh ridiculous. Yeah, and
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: then and then that you know that other side of
• 13:51
  Speaker 1: you kicks in and gets mad, well fine, then you know, fine,
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: then if that's how you want to add, music is playing.
• 13:59
  Speaker 1: That means it is time for me to fly.
