• 2:19
  Speaker 1: and they're asking for all sorts of stuff to be
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: tagged onto the Senate bill, which will then require the
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: Senate to go back and try to get to sixty

  Speaker 1: again on it because now they want extensions to the

  Speaker 1: Affordable Care Act subsidies if they can't have permanent affordable

  Speaker 1: now you're driving them somewhere else to drink because it's

  Speaker 1: the amendments that were proposed and engrossed. And trust me,
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: they're gross because the process is this isn't even sausage

  Speaker 1: It's on.
• 13:09
  Speaker 3: The paris as QUI for you from Joe Thomas. It's
• 13:15
  Speaker 3: first thing today.
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: But so as the process goes, And there's an old
• 13:37
  Speaker 1: expression in trying to take a weathered eye to how
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: you're being represented. The expression is nobody wants to see
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: how the sausage is made, obviously meaning we like sausage,
• 13:58
  Speaker 1: we just don't want to see what has to go
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: on to get it. And having been a broadcaster on
• 14:05
  Speaker 1: the del Marva Peninsula, I've been inside a d beaking room.
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: I know what they are and I understand, and I
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: still ate chicken after watching how the d beaking room
• 14:19
  Speaker 1: works and why it works, and understanding why the guys
• 14:24
  Speaker 1: who work in it kind of have a ten mile stare.
• 14:28
  Speaker 1: But in your public representation, what they mean is there's
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: a lot of your I stand to two and a
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: lot of bloviation and a lot of proposals. So if
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: you look at the House Committee on the Rules, which
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: started meeting last night at six point thirty, didn't gabble
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: out until just before two this morning, passing the amendment
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: the new HR fifty three seventy one, which is what
• 15:08
  Speaker 1: they call the continuing Resolution that will fund the government
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: through the end of January. And you look at the
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: things that the House wanted to add to a bill
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: that's already been amended enough to include you have to
• 15:25
  Speaker 1: hire back everyone that the Trump administration has fired from
• 15:30
  Speaker 1: the federal government and promised to never fire anyone again.
• 15:36
  Speaker 1: That wasn't enough here. Congressman Landsman from Ohio, Democrat. An
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: amendment proposed last night preventing appropriated fronts from being used
• 15:55
  Speaker 1: to implement cuts to Medicaid or the Affordable Care Act,
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: Prevents appropriated funds from being used to implement tariffs, prevents
• 16:03
  Speaker 1: appropriated funds from being used to implement tariffs that harm
• 16:14
  Speaker 1: American farmers, prevents appropriate funds from implementing tariffs that harm
• 16:20
  Speaker 1: American businesses. And you realize how we get here. I mean,
• 16:23
  Speaker 1: that's just one congressman, Ohio, Congressman Landsman on the House
• 16:32
  Speaker 1: Rules Committee that he raised a good amount of money
• 16:36
  Speaker 1: to get that scene. So what they have to do
• 16:40
  Speaker 1: to get these what does that mean to harm American
• 16:44
  Speaker 1: small business, to harm American families to well, that's up
• 16:49
  Speaker 1: to the bureaucrats to decide. This was all part of
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: Loper v. Bright was a congressman like Landsman will sit
• 16:57
  Speaker 1: there and say, I have an amendment that says none
• 16:59
  Speaker 1: of these appropriated funds can harm American families. Can you
• 17:04
  Speaker 1: define that more? Congressman, I think my words to find themselves,
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: mister chair, this is this is how we get here.
• 17:14
  Speaker 1: This is how we wind up with an out of
• 17:16
  Speaker 1: control bureaucratic state that just had to And by the way,
• 17:20
  Speaker 1: disappointed in the news media not covering this more. I
• 17:24
  Speaker 1: understand why Newsmax and Fox and some of the folks
• 17:27
  Speaker 1: who generally pitch for Caroline Levitt and the media side
• 17:33
  Speaker 1: of the Republican Party aren't covering it, but I expected
• 17:37
  Speaker 1: more people, and I think the Wall Street Journal covered
• 17:41
  Speaker 1: covered this a little bit in and amongst of in
• 17:45
  Speaker 1: and amongst of getting in bed with Newsmax to bash
• 17:48
  Speaker 1: the Heritage Foundation. But we can get into that story later.
• 17:52
  Speaker 1: But here's you know, this is our analysis of the
• 17:54
  Speaker 1: debris field from what went on yesterday, technically just a
• 17:59
  Speaker 1: few hours before we got on the air. This one's
• 18:02
  Speaker 1: a doozy. Prevents appropriated funds from being used to unlawfully
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: revoke terminate rescind up withholder delay awarded obligated federal funding
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: or grants from intended recipients, including but not limited to
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: state governments and local governments. Public They've got everything on here.
• 18:22
  Speaker 1: Prevents appropriated funds from being used to dismantle the National
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: Institute for Occupational Safety and Health implements, disclosure requirements for
• 18:31
  Speaker 1: the funds for the White House ballroom construction. This was all.
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: This was why the House. This is just the Rules Committee,
• 18:39
  Speaker 1: twelve congressmen met until just before too the Listening to
• 18:45
  Speaker 1: this Stuff Amendment to remove the expedited procedures outlied in
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: the ICA by Trump renaming things to prevent head start
• 18:59
  Speaker 1: from being Oh my gosh, it just goes on and
• 19:02
  Speaker 1: on and on, prevents appropriated phones from being used to alter, reduce, eliminate, terminate, revise,
• 19:12
  Speaker 1: or dismantle the public service on forgiveness program. It just
• 19:18
  Speaker 1: goes on and on. This is why it was two
• 19:20
  Speaker 1: o'clock in the morning. Maybe this will make you not
• 19:22
  Speaker 1: want to get into this kind of business, right, but
• 19:25
  Speaker 1: this is what they mean about seeing how the sausage
• 19:28
  Speaker 1: gets made. Good morning. You're on the air first thing
• 19:30
  Speaker 1: this morning with Joe Thomas. Who's this? Hey Joe, It's Clark,

• 19:56
  Speaker 17: right now? So you know, tell you, while I was

  Speaker 17: Affordable Care Act and the care ain't affordable now right?
• 20:11
  Speaker 1: Oh wait, there's more.
• 20:14
  Speaker 17: Would you say that the government grants and loans for
• 20:18
  Speaker 17: college were kind of like an Affordable College Act? Sure,
• 20:24
  Speaker 17: and college tuition has gone from oh, let's see, in
• 20:29
  Speaker 17: a forty five year period, twelve hundred dollars a year
• 20:35
  Speaker 17: for a state college intuition to thirty forty thousand. Yep,
• 20:44
  Speaker 17: that's a little bit of an increase. Let's see snap program.
• 20:50
  Speaker 17: We're hearing a lot about that right now, so affordable. Yeah,
• 20:55
  Speaker 17: would you say that's an affordable food program?
• 20:59
  Speaker 1: Yeah? And then for groceries, act, let's call it that.
• 21:02
  Speaker 19: Ay.
• 21:03
  Speaker 17: And let's see we got six dollars a gallon milk
• 21:06
  Speaker 17: and eight dollar hamburger, and I'm not sure what eggs
• 21:08
  Speaker 17: have come down to a dozen That don't seem that affordable. Hmm, Hey,
• 21:14
  Speaker 17: Fannie May, Freddie Mac.
• 21:15
  Speaker 1: Would you say that.
• 21:16
  Speaker 17: Was like an affordable homes project?
• 21:21
  Speaker 1: Yeah? Yeah, I think so.
• 21:23
  Speaker 17: Okay, And now we're floating the idea of a fifty
• 21:27
  Speaker 17: year mortgage so people that work sixty hours a week
• 21:31
  Speaker 17: can afford a home. You know, here's the fascinating thing
• 21:34
  Speaker 17: about that. The house that my grandmother and grandfather raised,
• 21:40
  Speaker 17: my dad and uncle Gynn costs five thousand dollars when
• 21:44
  Speaker 17: they bought it. That house has worth at least six
• 21:48
  Speaker 17: hundred k right now.
• 21:50

  Speaker 25: A message from FEMA and the.
• 28:13
  Speaker 3: First thing today on the Tunk Media Network by Joe Thomas,
• 28:18
  Speaker 3: the second most famous Thomas and showed.
• 28:21
  Speaker 1: Us fill when we left Doctor Clark, we were just
• 28:25
  Speaker 1: coming up to the news at half plat Pass and
• 28:27
  Speaker 1: we were talking about how the value of his childhood
• 28:30
  Speaker 1: or his dad's childhood home had gone up from five
• 28:34
  Speaker 1: thousand dollars to just under three quarters of a million dollars.
• 28:39
  Speaker 1: But the point I was making is that that is
• 28:41
  Speaker 1: more indicative of the devaluation of each US dollar.
• 28:46
  Speaker 17: That's where I'm going.
• 28:47
  Speaker 1: Okay, No, that's where you were going, all right. They
• 28:50
  Speaker 1: don't send me a roadmap.
• 28:52
  Speaker 17: Hell, if they were alive and they sold that property,
• 28:56
  Speaker 17: they'd have to pay capital gains on five hundred and
• 28:59
  Speaker 17: ninety five thousand dollars because the government had devalued the
• 29:04
  Speaker 17: five thousand dollars they used to purchase that house with.
• 29:07
  Speaker 1: Hmmm.
• 29:09
  Speaker 17: You know, it puts what Reagan said about the scariest
• 29:13
  Speaker 17: word around from the government. I'm here to help, and
• 29:17
  Speaker 17: the perspective when you start to consider that everything they
• 29:22
  Speaker 17: have tried to make affordable is now unaffordable. Please quit
• 29:28
  Speaker 17: helping us.
• 29:31
  Speaker 1: But it is well. I laugh when I hear economists
• 29:35
  Speaker 1: talk about, or try to debunk, the idea that subsidy
• 29:40
  Speaker 1: actually causes things to become more affordable, more inaffordable. I mean,
• 29:45
  Speaker 1: it is the craziest thing, because there is no evidence
• 29:49
  Speaker 1: of anywhere in human history, never mind American governmental history,
• 29:55
  Speaker 1: where subsidy has made anything come down in price. It
• 30:00
  Speaker 1: has made it seem less inaffordable for small portions of
• 30:06
  Speaker 1: the population, but it hasn't brought down the actual cost.
• 30:11
  Speaker 17: Okay, here's the deal, Joe. For the last the entire time,
• 30:15
  Speaker 17: I've been listening to the first thing. First, I've been taking
• 30:19
  Speaker 17: post hole diggers and redigging holes that were done with
• 30:23
  Speaker 17: an augur but it rained, Okay, I would gladly take
• 30:27
  Speaker 17: my phone, take a picture of one of those holes
• 30:31
  Speaker 17: and then provide an economist with a picture of one
• 30:34
  Speaker 17: of those holes and a picture of their backside, and
• 30:38
  Speaker 17: they would not be able to tell the difference.
• 30:42
  Speaker 1: That's a good point, I mean, And of course, the
• 30:45
  Speaker 1: point being they wouldn't know their backside if they were
• 30:49
  Speaker 1: sent a picture of it. And that's but that's the
• 30:53
  Speaker 1: problem is that we treat the symptom, we report on
• 30:57
  Speaker 1: the symptom, we report on the amendment of the symptom. Well,
• 31:03
  Speaker 1: the fever went down, Joe, the patient must be cured,
• 31:09
  Speaker 1: not necessarily, I'm sorry. Are you debating whether the fever
• 31:12
  Speaker 1: went down? The costs of the pharmaceuticals have come down, No,
• 31:17
  Speaker 1: they haven't. Cost of insurance hasn't come down, it's gone up.
• 31:26
  Speaker 1: What you're paying out of pocket hasn't come down. But
• 31:30
  Speaker 1: your great grandchildren are without even being told, without giving
• 31:36
  Speaker 1: a vote. And I've said before, if you want to
• 31:39
  Speaker 1: protect unborn children's lives, give each fetus a vote. You'll see,
• 31:45
  Speaker 1: you'll get trampled under the number of politicians trying to
• 31:49
  Speaker 1: protect that vote. But these unborn great grandchildren of yours
• 31:55
  Speaker 1: that are going to have to pay the taxes to
• 31:58
  Speaker 1: eventually fix this, they've never been asked whether they're you know,
• 32:04
  Speaker 1: they're they're going to be allowed to work hard and
• 32:09
  Speaker 1: make good choices and maybe even then be able to
• 32:13
  Speaker 1: afford without government's subsidy all of this. But right now,
• 32:18
  Speaker 1: it's just about getting to the next vote, and we
• 32:20
  Speaker 1: need to throw out some pork out there. Get bring
• 32:23
  Speaker 1: the pork back to the district. And apologies to the
• 32:29
  Speaker 1: adherent Jewish population listening in our Muslim friends, I keep
• 32:34
  Speaker 1: talking about making sausage and now we're talking about pork.
• 32:37
  Speaker 1: I'm not trying to drive you away, and I don't
• 32:40
  Speaker 1: believe the tenets of your faith stop you from listening
• 32:44
  Speaker 1: to radio programs that use words like sausage and pork.
• 32:47
  Speaker 1: So I hope that you understand I'm not just trying
• 32:50
  Speaker 1: to make you feel unwelcome here. But that's just the
• 32:53
  Speaker 1: nature of it. That's what we call it, bringing the
• 32:56
  Speaker 1: bringing the bacon back to the district. Oh there he
• 32:59
  Speaker 1: goes again. It's it's the idea that who's going to
• 33:05
  Speaker 1: vote against Santa Claus and Virginia's elections of last week
• 33:09
  Speaker 1: certainly haven't done anything to make people less tuned into
• 33:15
  Speaker 1: that political paradigm. Meanwhile, in the land of things gaining
• 33:20
  Speaker 1: value because they have intrinsic value, gold and silver are
• 33:25
  Speaker 1: friends at jcsgold dot com. I want to help you
• 33:28
  Speaker 1: navigate this landscape. Let's see how gold and silver are
• 33:31
  Speaker 1: trading at this hour of the morning with the fourth
• 33:34
  Speaker 1: generation of this family business. Good morning, James, how are you, sir?
• 33:38
  Speaker 26: I'm doing well, Joe and gold and silver in the
• 33:41
  Speaker 26: green again this morning. Gold is just slightly above even
• 33:46
  Speaker 26: so far four thousand and one and twenty seven dollars
• 33:50
  Speaker 26: and spurs up three cores of percent to fifty one
• 33:52
  Speaker 26: dollars and sixty five cents. Wow, which is about fifty
• 33:56
  Speaker 26: cents so far this morning. So another strong starts to
• 33:59
  Speaker 26: the day for gold and silver. And you know, and
• 34:02
  Speaker 26: you've said it before, we're really we're not salespeople. We're
• 34:06
  Speaker 26: really just brokers, and we to sell our clients the
• 34:13
  Speaker 26: item that makes the most sense for their portfolio and
• 34:16
  Speaker 26: for their goals.
• 34:17
  Speaker 1: So you know, you can.
• 34:18
  Speaker 26: Call, like you said, call a call center or something
• 34:21
  Speaker 26: like that, and they're going to try to push a
• 34:23
  Speaker 26: product on you. They're going to try to convince you
• 34:25
  Speaker 26: to buy something else and to upsell you. I really
• 34:29
  Speaker 26: am just trying to understand what your goals are and
• 34:32
  Speaker 26: what you are looking to do with your investment portfolio
• 34:36
  Speaker 26: and then just find the right product that fits you.
• 34:39
  Speaker 26: And we have lots of products there at jcsgold dot com,
• 34:42
  Speaker 26: especially on our daily Deals page, which are unique silver
• 34:45
  Speaker 26: items that you can get right at spot, which makes
• 34:48
  Speaker 26: great buy an opportunity at the moment.
• 34:50
  Speaker 1: And when you do this, and this is sort of
• 34:53
  Speaker 1: kind of a tangent of what doctor Clark was saying about,
• 34:56
  Speaker 1: you know, his grandmother's home and what it cost when
• 35:02
  Speaker 1: they purchased it five thousand dollars. It's worth six hundred
• 35:05
  Speaker 1: and fifty thousand US dollars right now. But it's worth
• 35:08
  Speaker 1: the same amount of gold as it was then. So
• 35:11
  Speaker 1: if she had purchased the house with gold, she would
• 35:13
  Speaker 1: have had to have brought the same amount of gold
• 35:15
  Speaker 1: to the realtor as she would today. And it's just
• 35:19
  Speaker 1: that that gold has changed in value because the value
• 35:23
  Speaker 1: of the dollar is gone the other way. That's exactly right.
• 35:27
  Speaker 23: You can.
• 35:27
  Speaker 26: The real estate is a great example of that because
• 35:30
  Speaker 26: real estate has skyrocketed value really hand in hand with
• 35:34
  Speaker 26: gold over the same time period to where you can
• 35:37
  Speaker 26: see gold is some real estate is the same value
• 35:40
  Speaker 26: priced in gold versus dollars, and it just shows the
• 35:44
  Speaker 26: strength of gold and how it really does fight inflation.
• 35:48
  Speaker 1: It's a great example of that. Well, thank you, I
• 35:50
  Speaker 1: appreciate it. My work here is done. Then I'm going
• 35:52
  Speaker 1: to go take a nap. James, you have a great morning.
• 35:56
  Speaker 1: This Ted ste at fourth and you can call them
• 35:59
  Speaker 1: and talk to them yourself at four three four nine
• 36:02
  Speaker 1: to seventy nine coin after ten Eastern or just you know,
• 36:05
  Speaker 1: peruse the website now it's optimized for handheld devices as
• 36:10
  Speaker 1: well as you can go to jcsgold dot com. James,
• 36:13
  Speaker 1: have a great morning, sir.
• 36:15
  Speaker 26: Thanks showing you too.
• 36:17
  Speaker 1: So back to the emails and texts, as they said,
• 36:20
  Speaker 1: you know, we will tell you what went on. We
• 36:22
  Speaker 1: will analyze the debris field and then get really with
• 36:26
  Speaker 1: you as to how you know this is impacting yours.
• 36:33
  Speaker 1: This text message Republicans can't vote on an extension of Obamacare.
• 36:37
  Speaker 1: How did they win? I don't mean win in a
• 36:40
  Speaker 1: literal sense, but not agreeing to support Obamacare at all.
• 36:43
  Speaker 1: The late John McCain and the lack of any strength
• 36:46
  Speaker 1: by Republicans has brought us the United States to this
• 36:50
  Speaker 1: point of a no bridge over the canyon? Is it
• 36:53
  Speaker 1: free for all or freefall? Oh that's a I like
• 36:58
  Speaker 1: the wordplay there. This is the inability to address the
• 37:05
  Speaker 1: real problem, which is that work is not paying off
• 37:11
  Speaker 1: for people. And I know that sounds like a Marxist
• 37:14
  Speaker 1: leftist Democrat talking point, but you have to understand what
• 37:22
  Speaker 1: your opponent and the opponents to liberty, freedom, free markets
• 37:26
  Speaker 1: are saying, and then you can craft your debunkment of that,
• 37:32
  Speaker 1: your oppositional statement, once you know what they're saying. And so,
• 37:39
  Speaker 1: as an approaching forty percent of the American population has
• 37:44
  Speaker 1: to get some sort of government benefit, Virginia's election results
• 37:49
  Speaker 1: from last week prove to you. All you have to
• 37:51
  Speaker 1: do is a drive down voter turnout enough to create
• 37:55
  Speaker 1: a scenario where thirty percent of the population become a
• 37:59
  Speaker 1: sixty percent landslide.
• 38:02

  Speaker 6: few bioavailable and highly absorbable curcumin products on the market.
• 39:13
  Speaker 6: I am doctor Mitch. Since most chronic diseases have inflammation,
• 39:18
  Speaker 6: our optimized curcumin seems to be a perfect addition to
• 39:22
  Speaker 6: any nutritional program. It makes sense to me that preventing

  Speaker 6: or reducing inflammation is a key component to our overall health.
• 39:32
  Speaker 6: The Mayo Clinic found that kurcumin can decrease swelling and inflammation,
• 39:37
  Speaker 6: has antioxidant properties, and research suggests that kurcumin can prevent
• 39:43
  Speaker 6: cancer or at least slow the spread of cancer, and
• 39:46
  Speaker 6: in many instances, make chemotherapy more effective. It protects our

  Speaker 4: Hybody, I'm Jack Hannah and it's always a boy growing
• 41:01
  Speaker 4: up on a farm in Tennessee. I've been fascinated with animals.
• 41:05
  Speaker 4: I'm not only in all of their beauty and kindness,
• 41:07
  Speaker 4: but also their tireless work ethic. Just look at the
• 41:09
  Speaker 4: birds who gather supplies to build nests, or Swiss foxes
• 41:13
  Speaker 4: who work hard to provide for their young, or penguins
• 41:15

  Speaker 4: for their families, or bush babies whose impressive jump allows
• 41:21
  Speaker 4: them to navigate the trees and the wild in search
• 41:23
  Speaker 4: of fruit. This remarkable work ethic is shared by our
• 41:26
  Speaker 4: best friends, the canines. We know dogs are wonderful pets
• 41:30
  Speaker 4: at home, but because of their acute senses, they also
• 41:33
  Speaker 4: perform life saving work every day. Dogs keep us safe
• 41:36
  Speaker 4: at airports. They comfort returning veterans, some of whom suffer
• 41:38
  Speaker 4: from PTS. They work with diabetics, alerting them when there's
• 41:42
  Speaker 4: a change in their blood chemistry. Working dogs have a

  Speaker 13: art and brain.

  Speaker 7: Who's with me?

  Speaker 13: Good thing is he knows when he's buzzed, and my
• 42:16
  Speaker 13: brain is saying when it's time to go home.
• 42:18
  Speaker 25: Somebody call me a ride.
• 42:20
  Speaker 18: Love that guy, me too.
• 42:22

  Speaker 3: Are amaze your friends. Here in First Thing Today by
• 44:22
  Speaker 3: Joe Tellus.
• 44:23
  Speaker 14: I'm from the government and I'm here to help.
• 44:25
  Speaker 1: I really don't like the way you play with that reentry. Ah,
• 44:34
  Speaker 1: we've got to do something. Ism. That's political philosophy that
• 44:39
  Speaker 1: my friend Chris Horner helped identify to me years ago
• 44:45
  Speaker 1: and explaining how we wound up where we are at
• 44:48
  Speaker 1: COP thirty and we're going to talk about something. The
• 44:52
  Speaker 1: COP thirty is the Climate Change Convention going on in
• 44:57
  Speaker 1: the Rainforest. Of all places, you'd think after thirty years,
• 45:00
  Speaker 1: they would have visited the rainforest before. A funny side
• 45:04
  Speaker 1: note Craig Rucker from Sea Fact last week. You can
• 45:08
  Speaker 1: find his visit on the podcast channel at Joe Thomas
• 45:12
  Speaker 1: in the Morning dot com, or hopefully you subscribe to
• 45:15
  Speaker 1: one of our distribution hubs, whether it be Spotify or
• 45:20
  Speaker 1: Apple Podcasts or wherever you wherever fine Sundrys are sold,
• 45:25
  Speaker 1: you can find us and subscribe to it, and then
• 45:28
  Speaker 1: it just gets sent to you more every afternoon. When
• 45:32
  Speaker 1: we get the versions of the show up there, it
• 45:35
  Speaker 1: is unedited. It's not like Donald Trump's speech and the BBC.
• 45:40
  Speaker 1: We don't have the We don't have the wherewithal to
• 45:44
  Speaker 1: go through four hours of radio and say, oh, don't
• 45:47
  Speaker 1: put that in there. It makes Joe look bad. Partially,
• 45:51
  Speaker 1: it's because I'm tired of debating whether or not that's
• 45:54
  Speaker 1: part of the business model of the program. But Chris Horder,
• 45:57
  Speaker 1: years ago, in explaining climate change, laid it out, I
• 46:04
  Speaker 1: think in a brilliant way. First you have to have
• 46:07
  Speaker 1: an expert say we've got to do something about this,
• 46:10
  Speaker 1: and then you have to have another expert come along
• 46:12
  Speaker 1: and say, well, here's something. And then they both say,
• 46:16
  Speaker 1: in unison, well then let's do that, because it's something
• 46:22
  Speaker 1: and we must do something. So therefore, if so facto
• 46:26
  Speaker 1: into wits, that's how we wind up here.
• 46:30
  Speaker 24: We've got to protect our phony belongey job gentlemen.
• 46:33
  Speaker 6: We must do something about this immediately, immediately.
• 46:35
  Speaker 1: Immediately, So this we must, we must do something. Ism
• 46:41
  Speaker 1: is how we've wound up in this position. People are poor, well,
• 46:45
  Speaker 1: we must do something about it. And we forget the
• 46:50
  Speaker 1: free market strategies that would allow people to not be
• 46:54
  Speaker 1: poor if they were so industrious and desirous to be.
• 46:59
  Speaker 1: But that does help in democracy, see the poison that
• 47:04
  Speaker 1: we've been taking under this miscasting of democracy. Democracy is
• 47:10
  Speaker 1: a tool by which you establish who your representatives are,
• 47:15
  Speaker 1: nothing more. And every society that has tried to operate
• 47:20
  Speaker 1: under pure democracy has found itself in collapse and under
• 47:25
  Speaker 1: the jackboot of a dictator within fifty to seventy five years.
• 47:32
  Speaker 1: This is why John Locke, before Thomas Jefferson and James
• 47:35
  Speaker 1: Madison came along said to ensure these rights. To secure
• 47:40
  Speaker 1: these rights, governments are instituted amongst men deriving their just
• 47:45
  Speaker 1: powers from the governed democratic processes as how you distribute
• 47:53
  Speaker 1: your just powers to those you choose to represent you
• 47:56
  Speaker 1: in your state house and in your county board and
• 48:00
  Speaker 1: in Washington as well. But we've decided that in this
• 48:06
  Speaker 1: everybody gets a trophy world, and keeping in mind fully,
• 48:12
  Speaker 1: grown adults now have grown up in a world where
• 48:14
  Speaker 1: everyone gets a trophy simply for participating. And there's a
• 48:20
  Speaker 1: reason we seem to be at this loggerheads that we're
• 48:23
  Speaker 1: at because enough thirty year olds grew up in a
• 48:27
  Speaker 1: world where just participating was enough for them, and being
• 48:31
  Speaker 1: told anything else is offensive to them. It's an assault
• 48:37
  Speaker 1: upon their very existence. And I don't discount the fact
• 48:42
  Speaker 1: that one leads to the other. And we didn't do enough.
• 48:45
  Speaker 1: When I was on the air, we were doing shock
• 48:48
  Speaker 1: Jock Radio and it was wonderful comedy because it gave
• 48:52
  Speaker 1: all of my co conspirators on the program an opportunity
• 48:56
  Speaker 1: to take shots at Joe. Hey, Joe, Hey, Joe, you'll
• 49:00
  Speaker 1: even get a trophy for our softball team now. And
• 49:06
  Speaker 1: it was great fun. But we didn't take it seriously enough.
• 49:10
  Speaker 1: Perhaps I should have. I didn't think it was the
• 49:13
  Speaker 1: place of morning radio to be doing that, but we
• 49:18
  Speaker 1: should have because it allowed the soccer moms to think
• 49:22
  Speaker 1: that this was good, that this was going to make
• 49:26
  Speaker 1: the country great again. See what I did there. So
• 49:32
  Speaker 1: now here we are with adults who lead many of
• 49:36
  Speaker 1: our institutions, or are at least climbing the ladders of
• 49:39
  Speaker 1: those institutions, thinking that simply participating should be enough, and
• 49:45
  Speaker 1: they develop public policy based on that. You're here, so
• 49:52
  Speaker 1: therefore you should get these things. You should be able
• 49:56
  Speaker 1: to see a doctor whenever you want. You should have
• 49:58
  Speaker 1: a bag of groceries whenever you want. You should be
• 50:00
  Speaker 1: able to call somebody on a cell phone whenever you want.
• 50:05
  Speaker 1: Rather than saying, in an economy, if you earn enough
• 50:09
  Speaker 1: money to do these things, and so what we wind
• 50:12
  Speaker 1: up with, and this is where we've got to do
• 50:14
  Speaker 1: something Ism comes in. You subsidize everything to make it
• 50:21
  Speaker 1: more expensive, so that when some jaboub like me comes
• 50:26
  Speaker 1: along and says we need free market solutions, they'll say.
• 50:29
  Speaker 16: But have you seen the cost of a prescription drug?
• 50:32
  Speaker 16: Have you seen the cost of a night in the hospital,
• 50:35
  Speaker 16: Have you seen the cost of groceries. Have you seen
• 50:38
  Speaker 16: the cost of the electric bills?
• 50:41
  Speaker 1: And they won't engage the discussion of how they got there.
• 50:47
  Speaker 1: They'll often play it off saying, oh, aren't you a realist, Joe.
• 50:51
  Speaker 1: I've listened to your show. You like to the reality
• 50:54
  Speaker 1: is these things? Well, the reality is there's a reason
• 50:57
  Speaker 1: these things have become so expensive. It's what we were
• 50:59
  Speaker 1: just talking about, the devaluation of the dollar. So we
• 51:10
  Speaker 1: need to start clawing all this back. And this is
• 51:12
  Speaker 1: why this deal that John Thune at al. Have cut
• 51:17
  Speaker 1: with the Democrats and the Senate is so bad, and
• 51:22
  Speaker 1: the Republicans are just going along with it because Donald
• 51:25
  Speaker 1: Trump said so. And I'm sorry to say it that
• 51:27
  Speaker 1: way because up till this point, and I'm not joining
• 51:33
  Speaker 1: Marjorie Taylor Green somewhere or anything else. But if they
• 51:37
  Speaker 1: are allowed to get away with this Tim Kain Permanent
• 51:43
  Speaker 1: Government Employee Protection Act, we've lost perhaps our last great
• 51:49
  Speaker 1: opportunity to claw back all that money that has just
• 51:53
  Speaker 1: been flowing out of Washington. I mean, forty cents for
• 51:57
  Speaker 1: every dollar, but the other sixty they're going into the
• 52:01
  Speaker 1: pockets of these people who just all now got their
• 52:04
  Speaker 1: jobs back, regardless of whether they deserve to have it
• 52:08
  Speaker 1: or not, or they were fulfilling a function and we've
• 52:14
  Speaker 1: all lost jobs. I need to go out and find
• 52:18
  Speaker 1: some funding sources, or I'm going to lose my position
• 52:20
  Speaker 1: with the daily signal. So you do it. You put
• 52:24
  Speaker 1: your big boy pants on. Life's rough, you get a helmet,
• 52:27
  Speaker 1: and you get back in the game. But that's not
• 52:31
  Speaker 1: what we want anymore. We have too many adults who
• 52:35
  Speaker 1: have been told that just being there is enough, and
• 52:39
  Speaker 1: they're governing that way. And that's what we need to
• 52:43
  Speaker 1: claw back. And that's why Trump needs to go back
• 52:46
  Speaker 1: to what he was doing and not just getting along
• 52:49
  Speaker 1: with John Thunne in the deal.
• 52:51
  Speaker 18: Crime across the country is at an all time high.
• 52:54
  Speaker 18: It feels like even a family road trip is taking
• 52:56
  Speaker 18: a risk. We don't want the feeling of being unprotected
• 52:59
