- 0:28Speaker 8: He only aims to please you.
- 0:33Speaker 3: Bless you for letting me be of service to you.
- 0:38Speaker 3: My constituency of one. Only here for you. And I
- 0:43Speaker 3: don't need you to join my campaign for something either.
- 0:48Speaker 3: And that's part of why you get so gaslit. Why
- 0:52Speaker 3: you get so frustrated with the world. And it's a
- 0:56Speaker 3: pox on the media's house because we're complicit in this campaigning.
- 1:01Speaker 3: You must be with us You must be a Guinness.
- 1:05Speaker 3: And you can't see what's being done to you outside
- 1:09Speaker 3: of the morass. And that's all we're trying to do
- 1:13Speaker 3: here is let you know that there's a reality in
- 1:16Speaker 3: the middle. There is a reality in the middle that
- 1:21Speaker 3: we all should be searching for. Let me get to you.
- 1:23Speaker 3: We've got our first things coming up here because you
- 1:26Speaker 3: know the deal. I'll tell you what went on last night.
- 1:28Speaker 3: I'll give you my analysis of it. But once completed
- 1:32Speaker 3: with that, I want to hear how it's impacting you.
- 1:34Speaker 3: So if you're joining us in progress, catch up. The
- 1:38Speaker 3: notes are available. Actually, they're not. So just pick it
- 1:43Speaker 3: up by context. Good morning. You're on the air with Joe.
- 1:46Speaker 3: Who's this?
- 1:46Speaker 1: Hey, Joe, it's Clark.
- 1:49Speaker 9: Now, before you get on the first things first, you're
- 1:52Speaker 9: going to have to scroll back a little bit in
- 1:54Speaker 9: the notes. I got to know why.
- 1:59Speaker 1: The Wheel of.
- 1:59Speaker 9: Fortune announcer got fired and my feed got cut right
- 2:03Speaker 9: at the crucial moment.
- 2:03Speaker 1: I don't know.
- 2:05Speaker 3: Well, the Wheel of Fortune guy, from what I understand, was,
- 2:13Speaker 3: how should I put this delicately, engaging in behavior similar
- 2:18Speaker 3: to that of the former labor secretary and was apparently
- 2:25Speaker 3: saying abusive things to his staff. I'm not sure he
- 2:29Speaker 3: was day drinking like the accusations of Laurie Doremer, but
- 2:34Speaker 3: he was being abusive to his staff.
- 2:38Speaker 9: Was he hormonally challenged when this happened?
- 2:42Speaker 1: He cannot be responsible.
- 2:44Speaker 3: He was male, so of course he was hormonally challenged.
- 2:47Speaker 3: I mean, Clark, that's a self-answering question there. Hang on
- 2:51Speaker 3: to that. It seems like a point that's worth poking
- 2:54Speaker 3: around in, mostly because it'll make people uncomfortable, and that's
- 2:58Speaker 3: 80% of the goal here. So let's do our first things,
- 3:03Speaker 3: and then we will follow up on that for you.
- 3:06Speaker 3: But our first things this morning, Russian drones struck the
- 3:10Speaker 3: headquarters of Ukraine's security service in central Kiev, Ukrainian President
- 3:15Speaker 3: Volodymyr Zelensky said on Friday ahead of diplomatic talks with U.S.
- 3:20Speaker 3: officials on ending the war. President Trump called on the
- 3:25Speaker 3: Federal Reserve yesterday to lower interest rates again, saying the
- 3:30Speaker 3: United States should have, quote, the lowest rate of any
- 3:34Speaker 3: country in the world after increasing the number of jobs
- 3:38Speaker 3: by 162,000. The president also demanded Friday that cases brought
- 3:44Speaker 3: against him by New York Attorney General Letitia James and
- 3:47Speaker 3: Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg, quote, be immediately terminated and dismissed.
- 3:53Speaker 3: after Michael Cohen recanted his testimony. Federal magistrate judges ordered
- 4:00Speaker 3: the administration to disclose the identities of people who helped
- 4:04Speaker 3: devise the settlement with the IRS. And I will again
- 4:09Speaker 3: say this in a way that isn't familiar to many
- 4:12Speaker 3: people because the press doesn't want to report it this way.
- 4:16Speaker 3: The $ 1. 776 billion settlement with the Internal Revenue Service as
- 4:23Speaker 3: the result of President Trump's lawsuit because they published his
- 4:28Speaker 3: private tax documents in the New York Times. But a
- 4:33Speaker 3: federal magistrate has ordered the administration to disclose the identities
- 4:39Speaker 3: of the people involved in that deal-making process. Judge William
- 4:45Speaker 3: Sullivan declared a mistrial Friday in Lindsey Clancy's murder case
- 4:51Speaker 3: after jurors said they were unable to reach a unanimous verdict.
- 4:56Speaker 3: One juror would not cast a vote saying he had
- 5:02Speaker 3: reasonable doubt. Kevin Reddington, her defense attorney, repeatedly referred to
- 5:08Speaker 3: the one juror as a male after court proceedings. Federal
- 5:14Speaker 3: judge in Boston extended a ban on stopping President Trump's
- 5:18Speaker 3: administration from implementing new Postal Service rules that would restrict
- 5:24Speaker 3: the use of the U.S. Postal Service for mail-in ballots
- 5:27Speaker 3: in states that had not cleared their voter lists against
- 5:32Speaker 3: a federal database. U.S. campaign to throttle Iran's economy is
- 5:38Speaker 3: apparently working. According to reports from inside Tehran, food shortages
- 5:43Speaker 3: are starting to become more common and energy rationing. It's
- 5:47Speaker 3: like living in California without the oceans. Labor Secretary Lori Chavez-Durimer,
- 5:52Speaker 3: according to a report from the inspector general, was day
- 5:58Speaker 3: drinking and abusive to staff members. And that's how she
- 6:00Speaker 3: lost her job at Wheel of Fortune. I mean, Department
- 6:03Speaker 3: of Labor. Those are our first things. Some of them
- 6:06Speaker 3: this morning. We'll get into more. But our friends at JCSGold.com
- 6:11Speaker 3: would love to have you come visit with them this
- 6:14Speaker 3: weekend because they can help you buy or sell gold.
- 6:18Speaker 3: at spot price for many things. You can find that
- 6:21Speaker 3: at jcsgold.com. Had a good day. Gold went down almost
- 6:25Speaker 3: $ 43 since yesterday. It's trading at $ 4, 430.
- 6:26Speaker 4: 15.
- 6:27Speaker 3: Silver is down $ 0. 76 since yesterday, trading at $ 66.
- 6:29Speaker 4: 22.
- 6:29Speaker 3: We're packing up next week and heading to Shanksville, Pennsylvania.
- 6:47Speaker 3: for the 25th anniversary of the terror attacks on this
- 6:51Speaker 3: country and the passengers of Flight 93. And it's all
- 6:57Speaker 3: brought to you by Big Ridge Guns and Archery. BigRidgeGuns.com.
- 7:02Speaker 10: Did you know that healthy arteries make a gas?
- 7:06Speaker 4: Yes.
- 7:07Speaker 10: Actually, three known gases. Hi, I'm Dr.
- 7:11Speaker 11: Mitch.
- 7:11Speaker 10: And nitric oxide is a gas that's readily made all
- 7:16Speaker 10: day long to keep our arteries open by relaxing the
- 7:20Speaker 10: blood vessel walls. By doing this, our circulation is increased,
- 7:25Speaker 10: bringing blood, oxygen, and nutrients to every part of your body.
- 7:30Speaker 10: Both age and poor diet can lead to a loss
- 7:34Speaker 10: of this precious gas, and in turn, blood pressure can
- 7:37Speaker 10: go up, energy can go down, and you can get
- 7:40Speaker 10: tingling in your hands and feet. Well, our product, Ultimate
- 7:45Speaker 10: Nitric Oxide, can easily help fix this lack of nitric oxide.

- 8:04Speaker 10: by most, optimized curcumin is one of the few bioavailable
- 8:08Speaker 10: and highly absorbable curcumin products on the market. Hi, I'm Dr. Mitch.
- 8:14Speaker 10: Since most chronic diseases have inflammation, our optimized curcumin seems
- 8:20Speaker 10: to be a perfect addition to any nutritional program. It
- 8:24Speaker 10: makes sense to me that preventing or reducing inflammation is
- 8:28Speaker 10: a key component to our overall health. The Mayo Clinic
- 8:32Speaker 10: found that curcumin can decrease swelling and inflammation, has antioxidant properties,
- 8:39Speaker 10: and research suggests that curcumin can prevent cancer, or at
- 8:43Speaker 10: least slow the spread of cancer, and in many instances
- 8:47Speaker 10: make chemotherapy more effective. It protects our healthy cells even
- 8:52Speaker 10: from radiation. TotalWellness.com, where we help you to look good,

- 9:05Speaker 12: warn you about telephone scammers pretending to be government employees.

- 9:46Speaker 12: enforcement arm, the Office of the Inspector General, at oig.ssa.gov.
- 9:53Speaker 12: Share this information with your friends and family.
- 9:58Speaker 1: Hi, everybody.
- 9:59Speaker 5: I'm Jack Hanna. Since I was a boy growing up
- 10:01Speaker 5: on a farm in Tennessee, I've been fascinated with animals.
- 10:04Speaker 5: I'm not only in awe of their beauty and kindness,
- 10:06Speaker 5: but also their tireless work ethic.
- 10:08Speaker 3: Just look at the.
- 10:08Speaker 5: Birds who gather supplies to build nests or Swiss foxes.
- 10:12Speaker 3: Who work hard to provide for their young.
- 10:14Speaker 5: Or penguins, who travel up to 500 miles to secure
- 10:17Speaker 5: food for their families. Or bush babies, whose impressive jump
- 10:20Speaker 5: allows them to navigate the trees and the wild in
- 10:22Speaker 5: search of fruit. This remarkable work ethic is shared by
- 10:25Speaker 5: our best friends, the canines. We know dogs are our
- 10:28Speaker 5: wonderful pets at home, but because of their acute senses,
- 10:32Speaker 5: they also perform life-saving work every day. Dogs keep us
- 10:35Speaker 5: safe at airports. They comfort returning veterans, some of whom
- 10:37Speaker 5: suffer from PTS. They work with diabetics, alerting them when
- 10:41Speaker 5: there's a change in their blood chemistry. Working dogs have
- 10:44Speaker 5: a variety of highly trained roles that contribute to society.
- 10:46Speaker 3: And help those in need.
- 10:47Speaker 2: So please join me and American.
- 10:49Speaker 5: Humane in supporting our heroic working dogs and all the
- 10:52Speaker 5: amazing animals on this planet we inhabit together. Go to AmericanHumane.org

- 11:01Speaker 4: Yeah, he's starting with the woots.
- 11:03Speaker 14: Woot, woot. And now a speech.
- 11:06Speaker 7: I just want to say that friendship is about heart.
- 11:10Speaker 10: Heart and brain.
- 11:12Speaker 3: Who's with me?
- 11:13Speaker 5: Good thing is, he knows when he's buzzed.
- 11:15Speaker 15: And my brain is saying, when it's time to go home,
- 11:18Speaker 15: somebody call me a ride.
- 11:19Speaker 16: Love that guy.
- 11:20Speaker 17: Me too.

- 11:23Speaker 6: it's time to go home. Buzz driving is drunk driving.

- 11:31Speaker 18: costs go to heating and cooling? Energy efficiency isn't just
- 11:35Speaker 18: good for the environment. It means lower utility bills, too.
- 11:39Speaker 18: One way to reduce your energy waste is a home

- 12:32Speaker 19: first to notice when a veteran you love has been

- 12:58Speaker 8: Here is the sound of thousands of.
- 13:09Speaker 20: Staff members.
- 13:12Speaker 2: First thing today on the Talk Media Network by Joe Thomas.
- 13:17Speaker 2: The second most famous Thomas in Charlottesville.
- 13:20Speaker 3: I thought during the Biden administration there was a concerted
- 13:26Speaker 3: effort and perhaps some of his staffers were former members
- 13:30Speaker 3: of the NBC writing team and I'm sure Lawrence O'Donnell
- 13:34Speaker 3: had access to the West Wing. Maybe that's where the
- 13:37Speaker 3: white powder came from. But It just seemed like quite
- 13:41Speaker 3: a bit during the Biden administration that the Biden administration
- 13:46Speaker 3: was just live action role playing scenes from the TV
- 13:52Speaker 3: program West Wing. And then this comes from the U.N. yesterday.
- 14:00Speaker 3: But first, just to make our case, just to make
- 14:04Speaker 3: our point from season one of the West Wing.
- 14:08Speaker 1: No.
- 14:09Speaker 2: Why are we changing maps?
- 14:11Speaker 19: Because, CJ, the Mercator projection has fostered European imperialist attitudes
- 14:16Speaker 19: for centuries and created an ethnic bias against the Third World.
- 14:19Speaker 21: Really?
- 14:20Speaker 11: The German cartographer, Mercator, originally designed this map in 1569
- 14:25Speaker 11: as a navigational tool for European sailors.
- 14:28Speaker 21: The map enlarges areas at the poles to create straight
- 14:31Speaker 21: lines of constant bearing or geographic direction.
- 14:34Speaker 19: So it makes it easier to cross an ocean.
- 14:36Speaker 4: But.
- 14:37Speaker 15: It distorts the relative size of nations and continents.
- 14:41Speaker 3: So, back when they could actually make fun of loony
- 14:44Speaker 3: lefties at the same time, comes this story from the
- 14:48Speaker 3: United Nations. Yesterday, not back in 2001 or whenever that episode,
- 14:57Speaker 3: maybe it was 98, United Nations General Assembly on Friday,
- 15:03Speaker 3: September 4th, 2026, endorsed A new world map that would
- 15:09Speaker 3: represent Africa more accurately in a larger size. Friday's resolution,
- 15:17Speaker 3: which was sponsored by Togo and backed by members of
- 15:21Speaker 3: the African Union, was passed with 164 member states voting
- 15:26Speaker 3: in favor. Only the U.S. voted against it, of course, there.
- 15:33Speaker 3: Come on, folks. The show was only on for seven seasons.
- 15:38Speaker 3: We can't just keep live-action, role-playing West Wing episodes. But
- 15:43Speaker 3: there it is, right from the scripts of season one
- 15:47Speaker 3: of the West Wing to you. And if you're looking
- 15:49Speaker 3: for it on Netflix, it's Crackpots and These Women is
- 15:53Speaker 3: the name of the episode. And on that subject, These Women, Dr.
- 15:56Speaker 3: Clark was asking us about whether there were hormonal issues
- 16:01Speaker 3: involved in the ouster of the Wheel of Fortune episode.
- 16:04Speaker 3: I have checked, aside from the fact that his genetics
- 16:09Speaker 3: are XY, I can't find anything hormonal that might have
- 16:14Speaker 3: caused his ouster, except that he was apparently mean to
- 16:20Speaker 3: his staff there. And who knew just saying, here's Vanna White,
- 16:25Speaker 3: required you to have a staff, Dr. Clark.
- 16:28Speaker 1: So if he's male, he cannot use the hormonal defense.
- 16:33Speaker 3: Apparently not. Although I would volunteer. I would do that
- 16:37Speaker 3: without a staff, and then I wouldn't be able to
- 16:40Speaker 3: abuse them. I mean, because I don't need one to say,
- 16:43Speaker 3: and here is Vanna White.
- 16:46Speaker 9: Why did he need a staff? Because he ain't on camera.
- 16:49Speaker 9: He ain't got to have a wardrobe guy.
- 16:51Speaker 1: What are they, writers? He don't even think up what
- 16:54Speaker 1: he says?
- 16:55Speaker 9: I don't know.
- 16:56Speaker 3: I have no idea. Anyway, but he did, and apparently
- 16:58Speaker 3: he was abusive to him.
- 17:01Speaker 9: Before we move into Lindsey Clancy, this person that got
- 17:07Speaker 9: fired for being a day drinker and a staff abuser.
- 17:10Speaker 3: Lori Chavez de Riemer, the secretary of labor.
- 17:16Speaker 1: Yeah, there's a Beatles song there.
- 17:18Speaker 9: They had a good reason for showing her the way out.
- 17:23Speaker 9: She was a day drinker, staff abuser. Now she found out.
- 17:30Speaker 1: She found out.
- 17:32Speaker 3: I know some former members of Congress that have empathy
- 17:34Speaker 3: for this kind of character assassination, and she's already out,
- 17:38Speaker 3: and they're still doing it. But now it's more reason
- 17:42Speaker 3: for guys like Bill Cassidy to get flexy on the
- 17:46Speaker 3: Trump administration before he leaves.
- 17:49Speaker 1: What does one of the congressmen you know say about that?
- 17:52Speaker 1: Why do they do it, Joe?
- 17:54Speaker 3: Because it works.
- 17:55Speaker 9: Yeah.
- 17:56Speaker 21: Yeah.
- 17:58Speaker 4: And they're not going to quit.
- 17:59Speaker 1: Doing it as long as it does. So let me glance.
- 18:04Speaker 1: So she murdered three babies and she's not guilty because hormones.
- 18:12Speaker 9: Now, look, I remember what a former president said. And
- 18:17Speaker 9: we need some common sense hormone rules and regulations.
- 18:23Speaker 1: OK, apparently 51 percent.
- 18:27Speaker 9: Of our population is a ticking time bomb, cannot be
- 18:31Speaker 9: held responsible for their actions.
- 18:33Speaker 3: Given that this is the case, we can.
- 18:37Speaker 9: No longer have female police officers.
- 18:40Speaker 1: They have guns, Joe. You never know when they might
- 18:42Speaker 1: go hormonal and just start shooting people.
- 18:45Speaker 9: No more military people.
- 18:48Speaker 1: You can't have a female president.
- 18:50Speaker 9: They've got nuclear codes. Think about hormonal and nuclear codes.
- 18:55Speaker 3: It cannot happen. You see, and I understand the sarcasm
- 19:00Speaker 3: with which you're delivering your message because this was all
- 19:04Speaker 3: of the, well, I guess maybe right in the wake
- 19:08Speaker 3: of Gloria Steinem's passage, as Rush Limbaugh once would have said,
- 19:14Speaker 3: Gloria Steinem this week assumed room temperature, surprising many people
- 19:19Speaker 3: that Gloria Steinem was still alive because the movement had
- 19:23Speaker 3: long since passed her by. Gloria Steinem was one of
- 19:30Speaker 3: the great campaigners against this idea that women can't do
- 19:36Speaker 3: these jobs because every 28 days there's a biological cycle.
- 19:41Speaker 3: But is this not perilous for the left to then
- 19:44Speaker 3: admit that there's a biological cycle that happens in certain
- 19:49Speaker 3: genetically challenged, I guess is the word they would use, individuals?
- 19:55Speaker 1: Do you remember Susan Powder Joe?
- 19:58Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 20:00Speaker 1: Stop the insanity.
- 20:03Speaker 3: Stop it.
- 20:04Speaker 1: You cannot have it both ways. Either They can't be
- 20:08Speaker 1: held responsible.
- 20:10Speaker 9: And you can't even have them be on juries, Joe,
- 20:14Speaker 9: because they can't make decisions.
- 20:15Speaker 1: They're hormonal. All right. All right.
- 20:17Speaker 3: You know, people are going to hear you say that
- 20:19Speaker 3: in abstract and maybe not catch the fact that you're
- 20:23Speaker 3: being sarcastic to draw a point to an issue.
- 20:28Speaker 1: That is exactly what I want.
- 20:31Speaker 9: They will take the position I want them to have
- 20:34Speaker 9: if they get offended.
- 20:35Speaker 1: Because it's offensive on its face.
- 20:39Speaker 13: Yeah.
- 20:39Speaker 9: The tyranny of low expectations. I can't be responsible because hormones.
- 20:45Speaker 1: Please.
- 20:48Speaker 9: You know, so I had to go and study medical
- 20:52Speaker 9: vocabulary so I.
- 20:54Speaker 1: Could speak the language of what I do and sound
- 20:56Speaker 1: smarter than I am. Hysteria.
- 20:59Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 20:59Speaker 9: Hysteria.
- 21:02Speaker 1: What's that word mean? Where'd it come from? What are
- 21:04Speaker 1: the roots of that word?
- 21:05Speaker 3: Well, you're asking me a question I can't answer, so
- 21:09Speaker 3: I'm hoping you're asking it hyperbolically.
- 21:13Speaker 1: Hyster. What do you get removed if you have a hysterectomy, Joe?
- 21:19Speaker 7: Oh.
- 21:19Speaker 1: Your uterus. Hyster means uterus.
- 21:23Speaker 9: Hysterical means you're acting like a person with a uterus.
- 21:29Speaker 1: Now, I used to think this was a.
- 21:31Speaker 9: Horribly sexist term come up with by antiquated psychologists and
- 21:36Speaker 9: psychiatrists who I ain't got a whole lot of respect
- 21:38Speaker 9: for either.
- 21:41Speaker 1: But now, I don't know.
- 21:42Speaker 9: I guess this whole case just proves they were right,
- 21:46Speaker 9: doesn't it?
- 21:48Speaker 3: Hey, you know, anything to get somebody off from killing babies,
- 21:51Speaker 3: you know, at least in Virginia, we're going to make
- 21:53Speaker 3: it legal up till the moment of birth. You know,
- 21:56Speaker 3: who knows how long it will take before we get
- 21:59Speaker 3: it three years past the moment.

- 23:10Speaker 22: Today's modern vehicle, whether it's a car, SUV, or light truck,
- 23:14Speaker 22: is designed with a specific fuel in mind. Read your
- 23:16Speaker 22: owner's manual. What octane rating does the vehicle manufacturer call for?
- 23:20Speaker 2: That's what you should use.
- 23:22Speaker 22: But there are exceptions to the rule. Many high-end or
- 23:25Speaker 22: luxury vehicles call for premium or higher octane fuel. And
- 23:28Speaker 22: the reason for this is not just due to the
- 23:30Speaker 22: octane rating. There are better fuel system cleaners in premium fuels.
- 23:34Speaker 22: Gasoline companies know, too, that vehicles that run on premium
- 23:37Speaker 22: won't perform as well with carbon deposits, so they pack
- 23:39Speaker 22: more cleaning power into their premium fuels than their regular blend.
- 23:43Speaker 22: If you rotate your fuel choices around, say, every third tankful,
- 23:46Speaker 22: you may find better performance and miles per gallon because
- 23:49Speaker 22: you are cleaning your engine and fuel system while you drive.
- 23:53Speaker 22: Just don't tell your mechanic you're trying to replace them

- 24:03Speaker 10: Considered by most, optimized curcumin is one of the few
- 24:07Speaker 10: bioavailable and highly absorbable curcumin products on the market. Hi,
- 24:12Speaker 10: I'm Dr. Mitch. Since most chronic diseases have inflammation, our
- 24:18Speaker 10: optimized curcumin seems to be a perfect addition to any
- 24:22Speaker 10: nutritional program. It makes sense to me that preventing or
- 24:26Speaker 10: reducing inflammation is a key component to our overall health.
- 24:31Speaker 10: The Mayo Clinic found that curcumin can decrease swelling and inflammation,
- 24:36Speaker 10: has antioxidant properties, and research suggests that curcumin can prevent cancer,
- 24:43Speaker 10: or at least slow the spread of cancer, and in
- 24:45Speaker 10: many instances make chemotherapy more effective. It protects our healthy
- 24:50Speaker 10: cells even from radiation. TotalWellness.com, where we help you to

- 26:07Speaker 3: Who's with me?
- 26:08Speaker 14: Good thing is, he knows when he's buzzed.
- 26:10Speaker 15: And my brain is saying, when it's time to go home,
- 26:13Speaker 15: somebody call me a ride.

- 26:49Speaker 18: check ducts for holes, and improve your insulation. Another time
- 26:53Speaker 18: to cut energy costs is when you shop for a
- 26:55Speaker 18: new appliance. Look for the Energy Star logo and read

- 28:15Speaker 2: First thing today on the Talk Media.
- 28:19Speaker 3: Network by Joe Thomas. 434-882-4217 this morning. Clark, what was
- 28:26Speaker 3: that after we went to break? You said something.
- 28:30Speaker 9: If you turn that five-year-old child in the loose, in
- 28:33Speaker 9: the wild, would it be able to survive on its own? No,
- 28:36Speaker 9: it's not a fully formed human. This was a post-birth
- 28:40Speaker 9: abortion as far as the left is concerned.
- 28:44Speaker 3: You're absolutely 100 percent on the beam with that. And
- 28:49Speaker 3: there are ethicists, believe it or not, and they're not
- 28:52Speaker 3: a majority yet, but they're a larger population than they were, say,
- 28:55Speaker 3: 20 years ago. There are ethicists amongst the ivy-covered walls
- 29:00Speaker 3: of academia that would tell you a human being does
- 29:04Speaker 3: not become a human being until they have societal impact,
- 29:09Speaker 3: and that's not until at least five years old. And
- 29:13Speaker 3: this is a frightening, eugenics-driven nightmare that we're trundling towards,
- 29:19Speaker 3: and it's mostly driven by people who don't want to say, hey,
- 29:24Speaker 3: you killed somebody, you should get punished for it because—
- 29:27Speaker 3: She's going to vote for somebody. And those three babies
- 29:31Speaker 3: were still at least 13 years removed from ever being
- 29:35Speaker 3: able to vote for anyone.
- 29:37Speaker 1: Now, this woman murdered. three babies.
- 29:41Speaker 9: And Joe, as horrible as that is, it's not the
- 29:45Speaker 9: most horrific part of this. The most horrific part is
- 29:51Speaker 9: she has legions of supporters.
- 29:54Speaker 3: I know that the people cheering on the side of
- 29:57Speaker 3: the road is just. And this one guy who apparently
- 30:03Speaker 3: just won't shake the idea of reasonable doubt, I'm sure
- 30:07Speaker 3: is— One pair of testicles. What's that?
- 30:10Speaker 1: One pair of testicles in this whole case. And he
- 30:15Speaker 1: had them. The judge didn't have them. The husband didn't
- 30:18Speaker 1: have them. One pair. That's the only that I could
- 30:22Speaker 1: find in the whole deal.
- 30:24Speaker 3: The one who voted that he had reasonable doubt?
- 30:29Speaker 15: Yes.
- 30:30Speaker 4: Really?
- 30:31Speaker 3: I find him to be bereft of those glands as well.
- 30:35Speaker 1: He killed three children.
- 30:41Speaker 3: I'm not following you how this guy has any intestinal fortitude.
- 30:45Speaker 3: He was just afraid of getting smothered in his sleep
- 30:47Speaker 3: by his significant other for voting against this hero of
- 30:53Speaker 3: the left.
- 30:56Speaker 1: But he stood up to the pressure.
- 30:59Speaker 4: The other two, you had what?
- 31:01Speaker 9: Nine Karens and two Darrens?
- 31:04Speaker 3: I guess. They weren't going to stand up. But I mean,
- 31:08Speaker 3: they were saying that they couldn't find reasonable doubt in
- 31:11Speaker 3: her case. And this guy said he had reasonable doubt.
- 31:17Speaker 3: So if the glove don't fit, you must acquit.
- 31:23Speaker 9: Well, Joe, the way I got it is it was
- 31:25Speaker 9: 11 acquit. And one said, I can't find reasonable doubt
- 31:30Speaker 9: in this whole deal.
- 31:32Speaker 3: I was told by court reporters it was the opposite,
- 31:36Speaker 3: but you may be right.
- 31:38Speaker 9: Oh, no, the women on the jury are furious that
- 31:41Speaker 9: this guy would not acquit her.
- 31:48Speaker 3: All right, I'm going to dig into this here because,
- 31:51Speaker 3: all right, so now this one male juror, said that
- 31:58Speaker 3: the Commonwealth could not get beyond a reasonable doubt that
- 32:04Speaker 3: she was criminally responsible. So the Commonwealth was saying she
- 32:07Speaker 3: was criminally responsible, and he said she wasn't, is what
- 32:13Speaker 3: I'm getting from the court reporters here. I'm just looking
- 32:18Speaker 3: at it here. It makes more sense demographically in Massachusetts
- 32:23Speaker 3: that you're right, Clark, that there's one guy saying, you know,
- 32:27Speaker 3: I think she is criminally responsible. But I'm trying to
- 32:31Speaker 3: scroll back to what the instructions to the jury was.
- 32:35Speaker 3: But the case, as they were bringing it under the
- 32:41Speaker 3: state's homicide instruction, a person lacks criminal responsibility if because
- 32:46Speaker 3: of a mental disease or defect lacks the substantial capacity
- 32:51Speaker 3: to either to appreciate the criminality, I'm reading from the
- 32:54Speaker 3: code here, or wrongfulness of her conduct, or to conform
- 32:59Speaker 3: her conduct to the requirements of law. So it seems like,
- 33:06Speaker 3: and again, it's murky, and I think the press covering it,
- 33:11Speaker 3: but as you said, the demographics in Massachusetts would lead
- 33:15Speaker 3: me to believe you're closer to how a jury would
- 33:19Speaker 3: react look at her as not being guilty of homicide
- 33:26Speaker 3: because of this. And I'm still trying to find the
- 33:29Speaker 3: exact charges that were levied to the jury before I
- 33:33Speaker 3: finish on that. Let me get to line two while
- 33:35Speaker 3: I scroll through the coverage here, because it's been so
- 33:38Speaker 3: murky in this up till this point. Good morning. You're
- 33:43Speaker 3: on the air with Joe. Who's this?
- 33:44Speaker 4: Hey, good morning, Joe. It's Joel.
- 33:47Speaker 3: Hey, Joel. How are you, sir?
- 33:50Speaker 23: I'm okay struggling with finances and trying to get work.
- 33:53Speaker 23: I I've tried even at local, just regular doing regular jobs.
- 33:58Speaker 23: And a lot of those are closed, but I wanted
- 34:00Speaker 23: to bring this up.
- 34:01Speaker 3: Dr.
- 34:01Speaker 23: Clark made me laugh with the definition of hysteria and
- 34:05Speaker 23: I'm not making fun of anything, but this is funny
- 34:08Speaker 23: the way he said it, you know, it was good. He,
- 34:10Speaker 23: he had such good insight in a lot of little
- 34:12Speaker 23: different things, but you know, it's all about family. It's
- 34:16Speaker 23: about the destruction of family. And what do China and
- 34:20Speaker 23: Russia want.
- 34:20Speaker 1: Us to do?
- 34:21Speaker 23: They want us to destruct the family because without those unions,
- 34:28Speaker 23: without the husband and wife, and then that's the other
- 34:34Speaker 23: thing that's been destructed.
- 34:35Speaker 4: Too, marriage. And also the beginning of life.
- 34:40Speaker 23: So like five different, three or four different things, but
- 34:43Speaker 23: it all has to do with life.
- 34:45Speaker 9: And then.
- 34:46Speaker 4: how we respect each other.
- 34:48Speaker 23: And it's just, it's just, I think that people need
- 34:53Speaker 23: to take a look at things and, and, and not,
- 34:57Speaker 23: not just look, look at things at a surface, but
- 35:00Speaker 23: to try to be helpful because I know that there's
- 35:02Speaker 23: organizations to try to help women that, that, that are,
- 35:06Speaker 23: you know, pregnant and to bring that life forward. And
- 35:10Speaker 23: they're trying to blame this now on a guy. And
- 35:13Speaker 23: it's not about a guy or a woman. It's about life.
- 35:18Speaker 3: Well, yeah, it's about the, you know, responsibility of life there.
- 35:23Speaker 3: And obviously there have been horrific collapses in the society
- 35:30Speaker 3: at the very beginning of the testimony as all these
- 35:33Speaker 3: people lined up saying, oh, she was asking for help.
- 35:36Speaker 3: And I kept yelling at my monitor screens, why didn't
- 35:40Speaker 3: you offer it then? You know, and this is, you know,
- 35:43Speaker 3: and I don't, Judge not lest ye be judged is
- 35:47Speaker 3: not a is not a rebuke about judging someone. But,
- 35:52Speaker 3: you know, I put everything aside for my kids. And
- 35:57Speaker 3: and you have to. That's that's what family means. You
- 36:01Speaker 3: talk about this. The jury instructions. I want to get
- 36:07Speaker 3: this right before we start to wind up in a
- 36:11Speaker 3: legal bramble bush. But your grander abstract on it is
- 36:15Speaker 3: that we are here for some reason that this young
- 36:21Speaker 3: lady didn't get the help she needed, nor was offered
- 36:25Speaker 3: it in some way, shape, or form. But there's also
- 36:29Speaker 3: the other side, which is how much is.
- 36:35Speaker 3: Decided before you start a family. I mean, we see
- 36:38Speaker 3: this in the abortion cases all over the country, which
- 36:41Speaker 3: is people are having, you know, creating life without really
- 36:46Speaker 3: understanding what that means. And then they want to just
- 36:50Speaker 3: fix it medically.
- 36:53Speaker 4: And Joe, I.
- 36:56Speaker 23: Tried to understand this. When they were talking about her
- 37:00Speaker 23: Christian faith, of course, she said she was Catholic.
- 37:02Speaker 4: But to me, that doesn't matter. I mean, you're still
- 37:04Speaker 4: a believer of Jesus.
- 37:05Speaker 23: But the problem is, I believe that there's satanic forces,
- 37:10Speaker 23: because if it's something that's not good, it's definitely done
- 37:14Speaker 23: by the devil.
- 37:14Speaker 4: And if you don't believe in the devil, then, or bad,
- 37:18Speaker 4: good or bad, then what? what is your existence in life?
- 37:22Speaker 23: I don't, I don't understand, but I think there's demonic
- 37:25Speaker 23: forces and they're, they're trying to fight everything in America.
- 37:28Speaker 23: They're trying to fight everything good in the world.
- 37:31Speaker 4: Right.
- 37:32Speaker 3: And so, and that's, but that's it because the devil,
- 37:37Speaker 3: the deceiver, Satan is going to tell you that your
- 37:41Speaker 3: needs and your wants are more important than in somebody else's.
- 37:45Speaker 3: And that's, you know, one of the, That's one of
- 37:48Speaker 3: his tools that he will, you know, your self-indulgence, your
- 37:54Speaker 3: id that he will play on to corrupt you is
- 37:59Speaker 3: one of the things.
- 38:01Speaker 11: Can you believe with all the recent violent protests, looting
- 38:05Speaker 11: and destruction, some areas are considering either defunding or abolishing
- 38:09Speaker 11: the police? At a time when America's neighborhoods need the
- 38:13Speaker 11: protection of police the most, some elected officials would rather create.
- 38:17Speaker 2: More chaos by playing politics.

- 38:22Speaker 11: of the radical left, you're not alone. It's time we
- 38:26Speaker 11: stand up and declare our support for local police.

- 41:08Speaker 14: heart disease, and stroke kill nearly a million people a year.
- 41:12Speaker 14: Even sadder, most of these deaths are preventable with a
- 41:15Speaker 14: few lifestyle changes, including regular activity, healthier eating, and not smoking.
- 41:21Speaker 14: Talk to your doctor about your risk for type 2
- 41:24Speaker 14: diabetes and heart disease. And if your doctor recommends lifestyle
- 41:27Speaker 14: changes or medication, listen. The reason so many die is
- 41:32Speaker 14: because not enough are willing to change. You can stop it,
- 41:36Speaker 14: starting right now. It's your life. Listen to your doctor.

- 43:29Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm pretty sober. Yeah, I'm probably okay.

- 44:11Speaker 2: Talk radio just the way your mother used to make it.
- 44:14Speaker 2: First thing today by Joe Thomas on the Talk Media Network.
- 44:19Speaker 3: In the criminal justice system, the people are represented by
- 44:22Speaker 3: two separate yet equally important groups, the police who investigate
- 44:26Speaker 3: crime and the district attorneys who prosecute the offenders.
- 44:29Speaker 2: These are their stories.
- 44:33Speaker 3: And the issue with this case is that you're only
- 44:36Speaker 3: getting little bits and pieces of whatever the media feels
- 44:41Speaker 3: that they have time to report there, Joel. And I
- 44:46Speaker 3: appreciate you hanging on the line with us.
- 44:49Speaker 23: And the thing is, I understand that they didn't want
- 44:53Speaker 23: the judgment done by other than what is in the law.
- 44:57Speaker 23: And I know we're fighting Islam and Sharia and things
- 45:04Speaker 23: like that, but The focus, just the question was, I guess,
- 45:08Speaker 23: they were asking about her faith or her belief in life,
- 45:13Speaker 23: and they couldn't bring that up. And I wonder about
- 45:18Speaker 23: if anybody really ministerially tried to help her or if
- 45:21Speaker 23: she even sought that.
- 45:22Speaker 3: Well, it seemed like her family all said that she
- 45:26Speaker 3: asked them or it was obvious to them she needed help.
- 45:30Speaker 3: So I don't know. Okay, so three counts, first-degree murder.
- 45:35Speaker 3: was what the jury was charged with. And that's a
- 45:37Speaker 3: heavy lift because that's, you know, so I think, you know,
- 45:43Speaker 3: there is a commonly held belief amongst the legal profession,
- 45:50Speaker 3: if you want an acquittal, ask for something, you know,
- 45:52Speaker 3: egregious in the charging because you'll be seen as being
- 45:56Speaker 3: tough on crime and you'll get the outcome you want,
- 46:00Speaker 3: which is an acquittal because it's just such a, high bar,
- 46:05Speaker 3: such a high standard to get to. And that may be,
- 46:10Speaker 3: you know, they had 11 people saying, I don't think
- 46:13Speaker 3: she's guilty of first-degree murder. And one guy did, or
- 46:19Speaker 3: had reasonable doubt that she didn't. So, Joel, I appreciate it. Sir,
- 46:23Speaker 3: last thoughts?
- 46:25Speaker 23: Yeah, I know they were trying to find a remedy
- 46:28Speaker 23: for the murder, whether it was mental or whether she
- 46:31Speaker 23: was cognitive, but I have to believe that When you
- 46:34Speaker 23: run away, when you flee from something, you're making a
- 46:37Speaker 23: decision because you know you've done something wrong.
- 46:42Speaker 3: And, again, this goes into how these cases can't be
- 46:45Speaker 3: tried in the press either because we're only getting what
- 46:48Speaker 3: the press chooses to show us out of the evidence.
- 46:52Speaker 3: I've sat on juries before, and it's entirely different than
- 46:55Speaker 3: it gets portrayed in the press if it gets portrayed
- 46:58Speaker 3: in the press. But thank you, Joel. I appreciate it, sir.
- 47:01Speaker 3: You have a great weekend.
- 47:03Speaker 4: You too.
- 47:03Speaker 1: Thank you.
- 47:05Speaker 3: 434-882-4217. Obviously, the Clancy verdict is not nearly, to me anyway,
- 47:12Speaker 3: as stunning as the celebrations and the protestations along the
- 47:20Speaker 3: street leading up to the courthouse videos. I mean, I
- 47:25Speaker 3: sit there agape at the idea that there are people
- 47:28Speaker 3: cheering somebody who killed three children. Whatever the reason may be.
- 47:37Speaker 3: And I know it's a text message. What does Sharia
- 47:40Speaker 3: law have to do with this? Well, you know, I think, again,
- 47:44Speaker 3: the left's crazy making is that it just kind of
- 47:49Speaker 3: gets lumped in with everything. I think what, Joel, your
- 47:54Speaker 3: question is that it seems to pop up everywhere when
- 47:59Speaker 3: we talk about demoralization. the removal of our morals, the
- 48:07Speaker 3: understanding that if you create life, it is the most
- 48:12Speaker 3: important job you now have. And the deceiver, Lucifer, another
- 48:23Speaker 3: one of the great arch-villains that we've tried to reimagine
- 48:27Speaker 3: in our zeal in modern Western culture to tell you,
- 48:33Speaker 3: you know, and explain why the bad guy isn't the
- 48:36Speaker 3: bad guy after all. Darth, you know, if Darth Vader and,
- 48:42Speaker 3: and the Joker can be recap, why not Lucifer? And
- 48:48Speaker 3: I'll guilty as charged. I watched the Fox TV show.
- 48:54Speaker 3: I never read the graphic novel that it was based on.
- 48:57Speaker 3: I understand it's a DC comic or DC show. And
- 49:06Speaker 3: I understand the zeitgeist of these consulting detective shows like
- 49:12Speaker 3: Monk and Psych and Columbo. Well, no, Columbo was the
- 49:17Speaker 3: actual cop. But you know, we have all these, you know,
- 49:20Speaker 3: Rockford Files is coming back. So all these consulting detectives,
- 49:27Speaker 3: obviously all born by Arthur Conan Doyle's Sherlock Holmes. Why
- 49:32Speaker 3: not have Lucifer play a consulting detective and see what
- 49:36Speaker 3: fun and frolic can come of that? But part of
- 49:38Speaker 3: it is this narrative that we're recasting Lucifer as not
- 49:42Speaker 3: the bad guy, not the one who's trying to corrupt
- 49:46Speaker 3: us and tear us apart and keep us from our moralities.
- 49:52Speaker 1: Correct?
- 49:53Speaker 3: I mean, I'm not trying to get Sunday sermonette here,
- 49:59Speaker 3: but there are rights and wrongs. And I don't mean
- 50:04Speaker 3: constitutional rights, things that are right and things that are wrong.
- 50:08Speaker 3: And I file this in the category of how do
- 50:12Speaker 3: you fight abortion holistically? You fight abortion by eliminating the
- 50:18Speaker 3: need for it. We won't have abortions if we don't
- 50:23Speaker 3: have unwanted pregnancies. I know that seems overly simplistic and
- 50:30Speaker 3: kick-sotic to tilt at that particular windmill. But if we
- 50:35Speaker 3: don't have unwanted pregnancies— or unwanted children, then we don't
- 50:40Speaker 3: have abortions. We don't have matricide and patricide. Because what
- 50:49Speaker 3: they don't show you in these TV dramas and these
- 50:52Speaker 3: recasting of Lucifer is that he wants you to be self-indulgent.
- 50:58Speaker 3: He wants you to not consider other people. He loves
- 51:01Speaker 3: him some internet because everybody's about me. Every now and
- 51:10Speaker 3: then I will stick a needle into my own side
- 51:14Speaker 3: after a segment and a phone call comes in. Enough
- 51:16Speaker 3: about me. Let's talk about you. What do you think
- 51:19Speaker 3: of me? And it's a joke and it's meant to
- 51:23Speaker 3: remind me that it ain't about me. It's about you.
- 51:26Speaker 3: About the only villain in pop culture we haven't Did
- 51:40Speaker 3: they redo Jaws where it wasn't Jaws? The shark wasn't
- 51:44Speaker 3: just an eating machine. It was personal. The 3D one,
- 51:49Speaker 3: I think, they even tried to rewrite the great white shark. Oh,
- 51:55Speaker 3: they're just eco-terrorists. They're trying to fight back against man's
- 51:59Speaker 3: damage of their natural habitat. I guess it begins with Godzilla, right?
- 52:12Speaker 3: But there is evil. And it begins, the reason the
- 52:21Speaker 3: first commandment is the first commandment is because what we
- 52:26Speaker 3: were doing is we were creating our own gods. And
- 52:31Speaker 3: we were them. Our indulgences became our gods. You will
- 52:40Speaker 3: have no other gods before me. was a reminder to
- 52:43Speaker 3: put yourself, or what's the expression, check yourself before you
- 52:46Speaker 3: wreck yourself. And that's what we're losing. You know, it's true.
- 52:52Speaker 7: Difficult times have a way of focusing us. We have
- 52:55Speaker 7: to think about what matters most when it comes to
- 52:57Speaker 7: our spending, our healthcare. This is why so many people
