- 0:01Speaker 1: Should I start talking like I'm on the air? Yeah,
- 0:03Speaker 1: go ahead. It's 5.06 this morning. I started having technical difficulties.
- 0:07Speaker 1: Brian Thomas right here, host of the 55KRC Morning Show,
- 0:09Speaker 1: and Russ Jackson endeavoring to fix the difficulties we're facing
- 0:14Speaker 1: this morning.
- 0:14Speaker 2: Am I on?
- 0:15Speaker 1: I'm on, apparently. Okay. Well, I still hear nothing. Anyway,
- 0:22Speaker 1: try to have a happy Tuesday. Off to a rough
- 0:24Speaker 1: start this morning, which is not exactly what I was
- 0:26Speaker 1: looking forward to. What I am looking forward to later
- 0:29Speaker 1: in the 55KRC Morning Show... The lineup. Today we get Dr.
- 0:32Speaker 1: Jay Riss over. Of course, we're going to go through
- 0:34Speaker 1: the empoweryouamerica.org website and find out what seminars are coming
- 0:40Speaker 1: up this week. Sorry, I am a bit flustered right now.
- 0:43Speaker 1: Don't like to get off on the wrong foot.
- 0:45Speaker 2: Anyway, Dr.
- 0:46Speaker 1: Jay, it's 7.05. Followed by, it is Tuesday, 7.30 with
- 0:49Speaker 1: Tom Zalastowski, We the People Convention. Tom Zalastowski, wethepeopleconvention.org is
- 0:53Speaker 1: where you find Tom. I presume he's going to echo
- 0:56Speaker 1: the sentiment that he's been echoing now for what seems
- 0:58Speaker 1: like forever, which is get out and vote. Hey, it's
- 1:00Speaker 1: early voting day. You can start today. Head on over
- 1:02Speaker 1: to the Board of Elections. Cast your vote. Get it
- 1:04Speaker 1: done and stop the mailing in your mailbox. I just
- 1:07Speaker 1: parenthetically have to note, is there any point to the U.S.
- 1:09Speaker 1: postal system anymore? I know that's a broad brush statement,
- 1:12Speaker 1: but for the last couple of weeks, I go to
- 1:14Speaker 1: the mailbox. There is nothing in there but junk. Nothing
- 1:18Speaker 1: of importance is mailed to the House anymore. you know,
- 1:21Speaker 1: get all our bills electronically and just, can we just
- 1:24Speaker 1: go down like a couple of days a week and
- 1:25Speaker 1: just call it a day on that and maybe solve
- 1:27Speaker 1: the problem of billions and billions of dollars of money
- 1:30Speaker 1: lost every year by the postal system? Sorry, had to
- 1:33Speaker 1: do that. Anyway, Tom Zawistowski at 7.30, followed by the
- 1:37Speaker 1: inside scoop of Breitbart News, the return of Frances Martel,
- 1:40Speaker 1: the international expert, which is really a great thing. I'm
- 1:43Speaker 1: glad that she's coming on because Flavio Balasnaro, conservative, Flavio Balasnaro,
- 1:56Speaker 1: beat socialist president Luiz Lula da Silva. This is in Brazil. Now,
- 2:02Speaker 1: what makes this important is Brazil, full-on left-wing socialist, along
- 2:07Speaker 1: with a lot of other former South American countries. Guess
- 2:11Speaker 1: what's happening?
- 2:12Speaker 3: Right.
- 2:13Speaker 1: They're moving over to more conservatives. Brazil, the next one
- 2:19Speaker 1: in line. Encouraging, if largely, unsung story of the last
- 2:23Speaker 1: three years and the turn of the right by voters
- 2:25Speaker 1: in Latin America. Brazil looks like it's going to be
- 2:27Speaker 1: joining the march to conservatism and rejecting socialism. Wake up, America.
- 2:33Speaker 1: Everybody else who's tried it is saying, you know what?
- 2:35Speaker 1: It sucks. Now, it wasn't an all-out victory. There's going
- 2:41Speaker 1: to be a runoff because he didn't get 50% of
- 2:42Speaker 1: the vote. 47% compared to the leftist da Silva. Trailing
- 2:47Speaker 1: with 45. Kind of close, but still, you've got to
- 2:50Speaker 1: get 50%. So out go all the other candidates, and
- 2:52Speaker 1: then you get a runoff between the two. And it looks,
- 2:55Speaker 1: based upon the outcome of the election, that we're going
- 3:00Speaker 1: to have one more country. The Senate also performed really
- 3:04Speaker 1: well in terms of the right wing in Brazil. They
- 3:07Speaker 1: call it the best electoral performance in 40 years. And
- 3:11Speaker 1: guess what their voter turnout was?
- 3:12Speaker 4: 79%.
- 3:12Speaker 5: I guess....
- 3:16Speaker 1: People are concerned in Brazil, the direction of the country,
- 3:18Speaker 1: bringing out a lot of people to go ahead and run.
- 3:20Speaker 1: So socialism failed in Latin America. And after this multiple races,
- 3:25Speaker 1: race after race of the last several years, since October, 2023, Argentina, Chile, Peru, Bolivia,
- 3:32Speaker 1: and Columbia have all thrown off the shackles of socialism
- 3:36Speaker 1: and moved over to the more conservative right-wing folks. So
- 3:40Speaker 1: it looks like Brazilians are looking like they want to
- 3:42Speaker 1: have some fun too and freedom sells from the shackle
- 3:45Speaker 1: of stupidity socialism is stupidity if you follow it you
- 3:48Speaker 1: think it's good and right you have not studied the
- 3:51Speaker 1: history you've not studied history and apparently you're not looking
- 3:53Speaker 1: around you but the rest of the world is feeling
- 3:55Speaker 1: about it it doesn't work people become miserable every talented
- 4:01Speaker 1: person flees the country look what happened in venezuela of
- 4:04Speaker 1: course donald trump is responsible for decapitating the leftist uh
- 4:08Speaker 1: leader of venezuela but we'll see what happens, but the
- 4:11Speaker 1: reality of what happened after the leftists took over is
- 4:14Speaker 1: the intellectual genius of the country fled and went elsewhere. Gee,
- 4:19Speaker 1: it's kind of like California. Kind of like Illinois. Kind
- 4:23Speaker 1: of like New York. Why don't you step back from
- 4:26Speaker 1: it and appreciate the fact that anybody who's worth a
- 4:28Speaker 1: damn runs as far away from socialism as they possibly can.
- 4:33Speaker 1: It's misery.
- 4:34Speaker 6: Ugh.
- 4:35Speaker 1: Anyhow sorry about that but francis martel is going to
- 4:38Speaker 1: be diving on into that a little more detail and
- 4:40Speaker 1: probably far more effective than i just did daniel davis
- 4:43Speaker 1: deep dive after francis martel at 8 30 we'll hear
- 4:46Speaker 1: from the retired colonel daniel davis the latest on iran
- 4:51Speaker 1: and of course the houthis going after the saudi arabians
- 4:53Speaker 1: we'll find out if that has um well uh if
- 4:57Speaker 1: the saudis who are not starting to fight back and
- 4:59Speaker 1: looking for the united states assistance in that regard although
- 5:01Speaker 1: so far it appears that we haven't provided it uh
- 5:04Speaker 1: they do have a decent amount of planes the Saudis
- 5:07Speaker 1: do so whether or not they can handle the challenge
- 5:10Speaker 1: their petroleum production facilities are being targeted which is a
- 5:13Speaker 1: real global problem you have the Ukrainians blowing up the
- 5:16Speaker 1: diesel facilities in Russia you've got of course the Saudi
- 5:19Speaker 1: Arabian facilities being attacked by the Houthis and of course
- 5:22Speaker 1: we have a huge problem globally with the cost of
- 5:25Speaker 1: everything including diesel but Donald Trump to the rescue yesterday
- 5:28Speaker 1: ready now I don't know how this is going to
- 5:30Speaker 1: work oh I think we learned about red dye diesel
- 5:34Speaker 1: and Some call it, I guess, heating oil, but it's
- 5:37Speaker 1: also used in farm equipment. It is not subject to
- 5:40Speaker 1: the federal tax. So semi-tractor trailer drivers, you're paying big
- 5:44Speaker 1: fat tax when you pump in regular diesel. If you
- 5:46Speaker 1: add a little bit of red dye to it, it's
- 5:49Speaker 1: for farm use only. It's illegal to use that in
- 5:51Speaker 1: a semi-tractor trailer because basically you're skirting the tax. But
- 5:56Speaker 1: the stuff is the same as diesel from what I understand.
- 5:59Speaker 1: If you know differently than that, please do inform me.
- 6:01Speaker 2: 513-749-5500, 800-823-TALK.
- 6:06Speaker 1: So it's going to provide some immediate relief, and the
- 6:09Speaker 1: administration claims that truckers could save more than $ 100 per refill.
- 6:14Speaker 1: That is a sizable chunk of coin there. But if
- 6:19Speaker 1: it's refined the same, and the only difference between diesel
- 6:22Speaker 1: that you buy at a diesel fuel pump, which is
- 6:24Speaker 1: subject to the tax up until a moment ago, and
- 6:28Speaker 1: red dye diesel, which only differs because it's got that
- 6:30Speaker 1: dye in it, thus freeing purchasers like the farmers who
- 6:34Speaker 1: buy it for their tractors and whatever else runs on diesel.
- 6:40Speaker 1: Isn't the supply problem the same? I mean, is there
- 6:45Speaker 1: an abundance of red dye produced fuel versus regular diesel
- 6:51Speaker 1: that we're all clamoring for? I can't imagine there is.
- 6:54Speaker 1: My understanding, it's the same damn product with the exception
- 6:56Speaker 1: of the dye addition, which one would think logically would
- 7:00Speaker 1: make it cost more, at least in terms of production,
- 7:02Speaker 1: because you're adding something to it that doesn't exist in
- 7:04Speaker 1: regular diesel. But at least some relief. I mean, I
- 7:07Speaker 1: can see that right away. And then sadly yesterday, and
- 7:11Speaker 1: I say sadly because, you know what, if the Supreme
- 7:13Speaker 1: Court goes 4-4 on this oil company liability decision out
- 7:20Speaker 1: of Colorado, we are screwed. Now, you recall ExxonMobil and
- 7:25Speaker 1: Suncor Energy have been sued. Boulder claims the company's contributed
- 7:28Speaker 1: to climate change, deceived customers about the risk of greenhouse gases,
- 7:33Speaker 1: and just saying that out loud, it's just like, the
- 7:37Speaker 1: jury is still out on it. And nonetheless, they're being
- 7:41Speaker 1: sued for something that I don't think is even decided science. Nonetheless,
- 7:45Speaker 1: they were in front of the Supreme Court yesterday arguing
- 7:48Speaker 1: about this. Sadly, the oil companies face some seriously skeptical questions.
- 7:53Speaker 1: And because the leader recused himself, you're setting yourself up
- 7:56Speaker 1: for a 4-4 split, at least ideologically. And then when
- 7:59Speaker 1: you hear some of the questions of some of the justices,
- 8:01Speaker 1: you're like, wait a minute. Conservative justices are asking questions
- 8:04Speaker 1: which suggest the oil company's argument is not meritless, but
- 8:10Speaker 1: is on shaky ground. Multiple justices, including conservative and liberals,
- 8:17Speaker 1: noted that state-based lawsuits are routinely used to target activities
- 8:21Speaker 1: with widespread effects. They specifically outlawed mentioned tobacco litigation, asbestos litigation,
- 8:27Speaker 1: opioid litigation, all of which went through and were prosecuted.
- 8:34Speaker 1: So if that's their view of the litigation against the
- 8:37Speaker 1: oil companies, and they side with the, well, Colorado in
- 8:42Speaker 1: this one, Boulder, the city of Boulder, Then, and it
- 8:47Speaker 1: was noted during oral arguments yesterday, it's going to unleash, oh, something,
- 8:51Speaker 1: I believe someone mentioned 90,000 separate lawsuits. You're never, ever
- 8:59Speaker 1: going to survive that as a company. I know there
- 9:02Speaker 1: are multi-billion dollar companies, but, you know, if the entire
- 9:05Speaker 1: world comes down on them, and I mean that just
- 9:07Speaker 1: within the United States because our tort liability is what
- 9:09Speaker 1: serves as the predicate for these lawsuits in the first place,
- 9:13Speaker 1: but there's no way you can overcome that. I guess
- 9:16Speaker 1: they'd have to declare bankruptcy. I really don't know, but
- 9:19Speaker 1: some of the questions are really rather disturbing. Just as
- 9:24Speaker 1: Neil Gorsuch among them, he seemed open to allowing at
- 9:27Speaker 1: least some state-based claims for climate change to proceed. So
- 9:32Speaker 1: we're going to have to wait a few months to
- 9:34Speaker 1: get the answer to this one, but it was observed
- 9:37Speaker 1: yesterday only one member of the court, Justice Brett Kavanaugh,
- 9:40Speaker 1: appeared clearly in the oil company's He said that prior
- 9:44Speaker 1: Supreme Court cases have made clear that air and water
- 9:47Speaker 1: pollution are exclusively federal, not state issues. This idea of
- 9:50Speaker 1: federal preemption. As you might expect, the three liberal justices,
- 9:55Speaker 1: uh sotomayor kagan and jackson brown jackson seem inclined to
- 10:00Speaker 1: allow the lawsuits to move forward and kagan specifically expressing
- 10:06Speaker 1: surprise about the oil company's argument that states should have
- 10:09Speaker 1: no role in climate policy where's the support for that
- 10:13Speaker 1: where's the precedent for that where's anything for that so
- 10:17Speaker 1: You can pretty much bet that three are going to
- 10:19Speaker 1: be squarely in the camp of Boulder, Colorado, which means
- 10:23Speaker 1: we've got to sit patiently on our seats, on the
- 10:25Speaker 1: edge of our seats, to find out which direction Gorsuch
- 10:27Speaker 1: goes and maybe some of the other conservative justices who
- 10:30Speaker 1: really aren't clear. I guess Thomas was maybe the only
- 10:32Speaker 1: one who came out loud that sounded like he was
- 10:35Speaker 1: convinced that the oil companies had no liability here or
- 10:39Speaker 1: couldn't face state liability.
- 10:42Speaker 2: I don't know.
- 10:43Speaker 1: I'm a little worried about that one. I truly am.
- 10:45Speaker 1: I was hoping that it would... Oral arguments are oral arguments.
- 10:48Speaker 1: You can't get a fully clear impression of which way
- 10:51Speaker 1: the direction is or how the Supreme Court is going
- 10:54Speaker 1: to ultimately rule. But it does allow you to draw
- 10:58Speaker 1: some conclusions in terms of odds. And I don't like
- 11:01Speaker 1: the way the odds are, at least at this moment
- 11:03Speaker 1: in time. Patrick, you want to hold on just a second?
- 11:05Speaker 1: I looked up and saw you're on the line. I'd
- 11:07Speaker 1: love to hear from you. I've got to take a
- 11:08Speaker 1: quick break, though. I'll be right back.
- 11:11Speaker 4: Okay.
- 11:11Speaker 1: Problems continue here on the 55KRC Morning Show. We'll see
- 11:14Speaker 1: if we can't get things resolved. But apparently, without a
- 11:16Speaker 1: music bet, I can still do the weather. According to
- 11:18Speaker 1: Channel 9, today's going to be a sunny day with
- 11:21Speaker 1: a high of 71. Clear tonight, down to 48. Tomorrow,
- 11:23Speaker 1: mostly sunny with a high of 80. Clear overnight, down
- 11:26Speaker 1: to 55.
- 11:27Speaker 2: Thursday.
- 11:28Speaker 1: Well, better late than never. Is that where we are, Russ? Thursday.
- 11:37Speaker 1: Sunny and 78. Friday, sunny and 74. It's 43 degrees
- 11:41Speaker 1: right now at 55 KRC Fox Station. I'm just going
- 11:46Speaker 1: to go home. Listen to our lines tomorrow. Jim and
- 11:49Speaker 1: Jack's on the river. Hope you can join us. Roughly 1130.
- 11:54Speaker 1: Always a good time. Last one before the election. Jim
- 11:55Speaker 1: and Jack's on the river. Did I mention today you
- 11:57Speaker 1: can start voting early? Patrick was kind enough to hold
- 12:00Speaker 1: over the break there. Thank you so much, Patrick. Give
- 12:02Speaker 1: me a hand here. Welcome to the show.
- 12:05Speaker 7: Hey, good morning, Brian. Well, look at the bright side
- 12:07Speaker 7: of it. It can only get better from here.
- 12:10Speaker 1: Yeah, I suppose. I will acknowledge I am not at
- 12:13Speaker 1: rock bottom right now. I don't like to have my
- 12:15Speaker 1: day disrupted, but you know what? A lot worse could happen. Exactly.
- 12:22Speaker 7: If we didn't have bad times, it wouldn't make us appreciate.
- 12:25Speaker 1: The good times.
- 12:25Speaker 2: Amen, brother.
- 12:26Speaker 1: I like that attitude.
- 12:29Speaker 7: Yeah, the reason that I called is that you are
- 12:31Speaker 7: correct on the off-road diesel. It is a reddish color.
- 12:35Speaker 7: We have some yard meals that basically just transport trailers
- 12:39Speaker 7: around our yard, and they use it, and they run
- 12:44Speaker 7: just fine on it. But anything that's actually on the
- 12:47Speaker 7: road has to have actual diesel, which then you're taxed,
- 12:50Speaker 7: which obviously, you know, it impacts the shipping business, which
- 12:55Speaker 7: impacts the cost of everything.
- 12:57Speaker 2: Sure.
- 12:57Speaker 7: Because, you know, as well as I do, that trucks transport.
- 13:03Speaker 3: Everything, so.
- 13:04Speaker 1: Well, believe me, Patrick, am I right that the only
- 13:07Speaker 1: difference between diesel on the road and the red dye
- 13:10Speaker 1: diesel is the red dye? Now, I understand this stuff
- 13:12Speaker 1: on the road. You must buy non-red dye because that's
- 13:15Speaker 1: where the taxes are levied. I mean, that's the point.
- 13:18Speaker 7: And you are correct on that.
- 13:19Speaker 1: But it's the same thing. Okay, so moving over, if
- 13:21Speaker 1: it's exactly the same thing except for the color and
- 13:24Speaker 1: we've got a global diesel shortage, we still have effectively
- 13:29Speaker 1: a global shortage of this particular product, whether it's red
- 13:33Speaker 1: or the road. approved stuff right isn't the same isn't
- 13:36Speaker 1: it coming from pretty much the same basket yes so
- 13:40Speaker 1: does this change anything other than i guess yeah not
- 13:43Speaker 1: charging the federal tax clearly but i you know in
- 13:46Speaker 1: terms of supply it doesn't change the supply dynamic that's
- 13:48Speaker 1: really what i want to be clear on right no no.
- 13:52Speaker 7: It's not going to change the supply but you know
- 13:54Speaker 7: as well as i do that the government likes to
- 13:56Speaker 7: cut their nose off to spite their face so the Anyway,
- 14:00Speaker 7: you have a good day, and I hope everything gets
- 14:02Speaker 7: better for you.
- 14:02Speaker 1: Thanks, brother. I appreciate it. Okay, then that's fine. The
- 14:07Speaker 1: supply of road-worthy or road-usable diesel is increased because you
- 14:12Speaker 1: can use the red on the road now. But effectively,
- 14:15Speaker 1: the entire quantity is limited by the amount of production.
- 14:18Speaker 2: So, okay.
- 14:18Speaker 1: Now, the other thing is this right here. You don't
- 14:22Speaker 1: see it because I'm pointing at an article in front
- 14:23Speaker 1: of me. And how have I been saying this? Don't
- 14:27Speaker 1: blame Donald Trump for the high price of gasoline. Or rather,
- 14:30Speaker 1: don't vote for Democrats because of the high price of gasoline.
- 14:33Speaker 1: If you want to draw a straight line from Donald
- 14:34Speaker 1: Trump and the war to the high price of diesel
- 14:36Speaker 1: or gasoline, go ahead and draw that. I think it's
- 14:38Speaker 1: a pretty clear line. There's a lot of other factors
- 14:42Speaker 1: involved in it, like Democrats' green energy policies and reducing
- 14:45Speaker 1: the number of refineries and all that. So we can
- 14:47Speaker 1: blame them. But leading up to it, boom. The war
- 14:50Speaker 1: goes and the Strait of Hormuz is shut down. We
- 14:52Speaker 1: experience higher prices. And I've said, listen, if you get
- 14:55Speaker 1: angry at Trump and you want to go ahead and
- 14:56Speaker 1: blame him for that, don't vote Democrat because this is
- 14:58Speaker 1: exactly what they wanted. The problem with the Democrats' argument
- 15:02Speaker 1: is in the name of carbon dioxide elimination or green
- 15:05Speaker 1: energy policies, we will make the price of gasoline go
- 15:09Speaker 1: up through our regulation. You will necessarily pay more of
- 15:12Speaker 1: the pump, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. We've talked about
- 15:14Speaker 1: this a million times. Donald Trump's war with the Iranians
- 15:19Speaker 1: is a gift to these idiots who want us all
- 15:21Speaker 1: to be behind the wheel of EVs because guess what?
- 15:23Speaker 1: They share gasoline cars globally, fell below 50% for the
- 15:28Speaker 1: first time ever. Everybody's out buying EVs and hybrids. China
- 15:33Speaker 1: was already over 50%. They've been there for a while.
- 15:35Speaker 1: They're about 55% electric. The rest of the world, not
- 15:39Speaker 1: so much. They weren't convinced. Guess what? Price of gasoline
- 15:41Speaker 1: goes through the roof by natural economic problems, realities. In
- 15:48Speaker 1: other words, not brought about by legislation, but brought about
- 15:50Speaker 1: by supply chain disruptions, which I kept saying and keep
- 15:53Speaker 1: saying are going to be temporary. Whether temporary is a
- 15:56Speaker 1: year or five years, wherever long this situation takes to
- 15:58Speaker 1: get ironed out, somebody's going to figure it out. Number
- 16:02Speaker 1: of barrels of oil coming out of the Strait of
- 16:04Speaker 1: Hormuz is increasing. They're using pipelines and rail and every
- 16:07Speaker 1: other mechanism they can to get the stuff out of
- 16:09Speaker 1: the area, and that will increase over time. So whether
- 16:11Speaker 1: the full straight opens up or they come up with
- 16:13Speaker 1: some alternative route, it's going to happen. You know it is.
- 16:16Speaker 1: This is how they make money over there. Once that eases,
- 16:21Speaker 1: then the supply disruptions are going to go away. I
- 16:25Speaker 1: don't know if people who went out and bought EVs
- 16:27Speaker 1: during this disruption period are going to regret their purchases.
- 16:30Speaker 1: Maybe they'll think it was a great idea. But this
- 16:32Speaker 1: is the reality that the Democrats wanted to bring about
- 16:34Speaker 1: here in the United States by virtue of legislation. The
- 16:39Speaker 1: throat cutting, the intentional harming of someone in order to
- 16:42Speaker 1: bring about a result, what they want down the road,
- 16:45Speaker 1: which is full electrification. You can go ahead and ask
- 16:48Speaker 1: yourself why. I think it's because it's easy to flip
- 16:50Speaker 1: the switch off whenever they damn well please. The first
- 16:54Speaker 1: thing that went through my mind, I saw this article.
- 16:56Speaker 1: Honda's planning a highway. This is a highway that can
- 16:59Speaker 1: charge your automobile, your truck, just by driving over it.
- 17:03Speaker 1: Now you got those wireless chargers. Well, Honda's working on
- 17:07Speaker 1: a highway, a wireless highway. And as soon as I
- 17:10Speaker 1: read that, I thought, you know, I imagine you can
- 17:12Speaker 1: do that. I don't know what the cost is going
- 17:14Speaker 1: to be, whether it's feasible from a cost-benefit analysis, but
- 17:17Speaker 1: there it is. But what went through my mind? The switch.
- 17:22Speaker 1: Flipping it off. And you can't drive. Can't do that
- 17:28Speaker 1: with a gasoline-powered car. As long as you've got extra
- 17:30Speaker 1: fuel around, you can fire that baby up. Ah, Wes,
- 17:34Speaker 1: hang on, brother. It's 525 here on a technically challenged Tuesday.
- 17:38Speaker 1: I'll take your call when you get back. Do some
- 17:39Speaker 1: local stories, too, if possible. I prefer the phone calls.
- 17:43Speaker 1: I'll be right back.
- 17:44Speaker 6: Apply.
- 17:46Speaker 1: Here is your Channel 9 first morning weather forecast. Sunny
- 17:48Speaker 1: and 71 today. Clear tonight down to 48. Sunny and
- 17:51Speaker 1: 80 tomorrow. Clear overnight 55. Sunny and 78 on Thursday.
- 17:56Speaker 1: Sunny on Friday as well with a high of 74.
- 17:58Speaker 1: It's 43 degrees right now. Think about the KRCD talk station.
- 18:02Speaker 1: 528-55-KRC-D Talk Station. Thank you, Paulette. My wife is so nice.
- 18:06Speaker 1: I married out of my league. Expressing out loud frustration
- 18:10Speaker 1: this morning with some technical difficulties and some soothing texts
- 18:13Speaker 1: from my wife. And yes, I love you, honey. I
- 18:15Speaker 1: appreciate that. Hang in there, she says. You know the
- 18:19Speaker 1: benefit of being the host of the 55-KRC Morning Show?
- 18:22Speaker 1: No one dies. I mean, die of natural causes, but
- 18:26Speaker 1: not as a consequence of what I do for a living,
- 18:29Speaker 1: which is, you know, hey, listen, if you're a surgeon,
- 18:31Speaker 1: you can't say that.
- 18:34Speaker 5: Right, Russ?
- 18:36Speaker 1: Hang in there, brother. Everything's okay. Let's get to Wes. Wes,
- 18:40Speaker 1: thank you for calling this morning, and a happy Tuesday.
- 18:42Speaker 2: To you, sir. Hi, Brian.
- 18:45Speaker 5: Good talking to you.
- 18:46Speaker 8: Hey, I just wanted to comment real quick about the
- 18:49Speaker 8: diesel fuel.
- 18:50Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 18:51Speaker 5: You are correct.
- 18:52Speaker 8: Number two diesel is the same thing. Same diesel that
- 18:56Speaker 8: you would buy at the pump.
- 18:57Speaker 5: It's actually called number two.
- 18:59Speaker 8: Um, just like you said, the, uh, the stuff you
- 19:04Speaker 8: buy with the red dye just doesn't have the road
- 19:06Speaker 8: tech tax. So interesting here enough. I just, I drive
- 19:11Speaker 8: a diesel pickup truck as my daily commute. And I
- 19:16Speaker 8: just went on vacation to Southwest Florida and drove my
- 19:19Speaker 8: truck down there. In fact, now I, I bought diesel
- 19:24Speaker 8: on the way back in.
- 19:25Speaker 9: South Georgia for $ 5.
- 19:27Speaker 2: 25, $ 5.
- 19:28Speaker 5: 20 a gallon.
- 19:31Speaker 8: Uh-huh. Now, as of yesterday in Ohio, our governor.
- 19:39Speaker 5: Suspended all the fuel tax.
- 19:41Speaker 8: For 90 days.
- 19:43Speaker 6: Right.
- 19:44Speaker 8: So the tax on diesel, I think here, was like
- 19:47Speaker 8: 47 cents per gallon.
- 19:49Speaker 1: I think you're right.
- 19:51Speaker 8: But diesel here in the tri-state is trending at a
- 19:58Speaker 8: little over $ 6 a gallon, $ 6.
- 20:00Speaker 6: 12.
- 20:01Speaker 8: You might find it some places for about $ 5.
- 20:02Speaker 5: 80 a gallon.
- 20:07Speaker 8: And I'm sure that, you know, the diesel fuel I
- 20:09Speaker 8: was buying in South Georgia still had some kind of
- 20:13Speaker 8: significant amount of road.
- 20:14Speaker 5: Tax on it.
- 20:15Speaker 1: Well, you have to check on that because it seems
- 20:17Speaker 1: to me, I recall the other day that it was
- 20:19Speaker 1: maybe Texas Governor Abbott that said he was going to
- 20:22Speaker 1: allow people within the state of Texas to buy the
- 20:25Speaker 1: red dye diesel and run or the red dye fuel
- 20:27Speaker 1: and run it in their truck. So apparently, you know,
- 20:28Speaker 1: we got federal regulations and federal taxes and state issues.
- 20:31Speaker 1: So maybe Georgia did the same thing. You were, you
- 20:34Speaker 1: were able to, you were pumping red dye diesel in there,
- 20:36Speaker 1: or maybe the, I don't know how it works, honestly,
- 20:38Speaker 1: but you have state and federal taxes. So what Donald
- 20:40Speaker 1: Trump does is suspended the federal tax on it. States
- 20:42Speaker 1: can do whatever the hell they damn well, please.
- 20:45Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 20:46Speaker 6: Right.
- 20:46Speaker 1: And then supply issues impacted. Like, how is it that,
- 20:49Speaker 1: you know, gasoline per gallon is cheaper, let's say in
- 20:52Speaker 1: one state. And then right next to it, it's a
- 20:55Speaker 1: lot more expensive. Could be tax related. It could be
- 20:57Speaker 1: a supply thing. Uh, Like California got rid of all
- 21:00Speaker 1: of its refineries, so it has to import a lot.
- 21:02Speaker 1: Over on the East Coast, different issues, different prices. There
- 21:05Speaker 1: are so many variables in connection with what a gallon
- 21:08Speaker 1: of anything costs that it's hard to say specifically.
- 21:12Speaker 8: Well, that's true, but I just found it quite interesting that,
- 21:17Speaker 8: you know, right now with no road tax in Ohio,
- 21:23Speaker 8: diesel fuel is still a dollar cheaper in Georgia.
- 21:26Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 21:28Speaker 6: Well.
- 21:29Speaker 1: Be thankful you're not in California, I guess, Wes.
- 21:34Speaker 8: They talk about the shortage of diesel, but diesel is
- 21:40Speaker 8: a byproduct of gasoline.
- 21:44Speaker 1: The way I understand it, because there's limited refinery capacity,
- 21:50Speaker 1: each column where they do the refining produces all the
- 21:53Speaker 1: same products, whether it's heating oil, gasoline, or you know, kerosene.
- 21:57Speaker 1: It's just in the heating process and where in that
- 22:00Speaker 1: column the vapor accumulates or the liquid accumulates. So that's
- 22:05Speaker 1: how they divide it in types of products. So finite
- 22:08Speaker 1: amount of refining capacity. So whether you're making primarily gasoline or,
- 22:12Speaker 1: you know, it's, again, the complications of the refining process
- 22:18Speaker 1: kind of escape me. But if you only have, you know,
- 22:20Speaker 1: X number of refining plants, there's only a certain amount
- 22:24Speaker 1: of whatever it is you can get out of them,
- 22:25Speaker 1: extract them. So, and also there's a big variable in
- 22:28Speaker 1: terms of the type of oil that's being refined. You know, oh,
- 22:31Speaker 1: that's the wrong kind of oil for making diesel. Well,
- 22:34Speaker 1: you know, I'm no chemist. I don't know how this works.
- 22:37Speaker 1: I know there are multiple different grades of crude. You know,
- 22:40Speaker 1: you got Texas sweet and, you know, the stuff from Venezuela,
- 22:44Speaker 1: which apparently is not as good as what we produce
- 22:47Speaker 1: here in the United States and different products go to
- 22:49Speaker 1: different refineries. So it's just very complicated.
- 22:54Speaker 4: Right.
- 22:54Speaker 3: There you go.
- 22:56Speaker 8: The only other thing, too, is now with wintertime coming,
- 23:00Speaker 8: they will switch to winter blend, which is a blend
- 23:05Speaker 8: of number two and number one diesel, which keeps the
- 23:09Speaker 8: fuel and cold weather from gelling up and freezing.
- 23:13Speaker 3: Okay. Of course, that's more expensive.
- 23:16Speaker 1: Right. Okay, now let me ask you this. If they
- 23:18Speaker 1: didn't have to change the blends, and this happens every
- 23:21Speaker 1: spring and fall or whatever, they change the blends, there's
- 23:23Speaker 1: always a shutdown for a period of time to change
- 23:25Speaker 1: the blends. Is it possible, and this is me asking
- 23:29Speaker 1: a question I don't know the answer to, is it
- 23:30Speaker 1: like daylight saving times or standard time? Could you just
- 23:33Speaker 1: pick one and use it all year long and not
- 23:36Speaker 1: have to suffer the shutdowns with the different blends?
- 23:40Speaker 3: I'm sure you could.
- 23:40Speaker 8: I mean, the stuff you run in the winter would
- 23:43Speaker 8: run just fine in the summer.
- 23:45Speaker 1: That's kind of what I was thinking. If they didn't
- 23:47Speaker 1: have the shutdowns associated with the changing of blends, maybe
- 23:49Speaker 1: it wouldn't be that much more expensive or maybe a
- 23:52Speaker 1: wash in terms of just leaving it alone throughout the
- 23:55Speaker 1: entire year. I've always wondered about that one parenthetically, but
- 23:57Speaker 1: I appreciate the opportunity to talk about.
- 23:59Speaker 3: It, Wes.
- 24:00Speaker 1: Hang in there, man. Wait, real quick, Wes. Are you
- 24:04Speaker 1: planning on getting an EV? Are you planning on getting
- 24:06Speaker 1: an EV?
- 24:06Speaker 5: Heck no.
- 24:08Speaker 3: There you go.
- 24:11Speaker 8: I can't pull campers, trailers, and boats with an EV.
- 24:15Speaker 1: Fair enough. Not yet. Anyway, yeah, they may answer that
- 24:18Speaker 1: challenge someday. But, yeah, I'm squarely in your camp on that.
- 24:21Speaker 1: I do appreciate the internal combustion engine still. Take care, Wes.
- 24:24Speaker 1: Good luck out there. Pete, I promise to take your
- 24:27Speaker 1: call in just a second. It is already 535, so
- 24:28Speaker 1: I must pause. For these commercial messages, please support the
- 24:32Speaker 1: sponsors here on the 55KRC Morning Show.
- 24:34Speaker 2: Be right back.
- 24:35Speaker 10: A mammogram takes 15 minutes and could save your life.
- 24:38Speaker 10: Schedule yours with UCHealth breast imaging experts at 513-584-PINK. Highways
- 24:45Speaker 10: are doing fine early on this Tuesday morning. Wrapping things up,
- 24:49Speaker 10: westbound 74 from an overnight work crew near 128. Northbound
- 24:54Speaker 10: 71 broken down above Fields-Earnal right side. Chuck Ingram, 55KRC,
- 24:59Speaker 10: the talk station.
- 25:01Speaker 1: 539-55KRC, the talk station, 513-749-5500, 800-823-TALK, or pound 550 on
- 25:06Speaker 1: AT & T phones. Thank you, Pete, for holding over
- 25:10Speaker 1: the break. Welcome to the 55KRC Morning Show.
- 25:13Speaker 2: Hey, thanks for taking my call, Brian.
- 25:15Speaker 11: And this red dye stuff, the red dye diesel is
- 25:18Speaker 11: not readily available to the general public. Most of it's
- 25:21Speaker 11: delivered to, like, farmers and mining companies and people that
- 25:24Speaker 11: have lots of off-road vehicles. If they really wanted to help,
- 25:28Speaker 11: all they had to do is suspend the federal tax
- 25:32Speaker 11: on it. And then everybody could get it if they need,
- 25:35Speaker 11: you know, I don't get it. It's like I drive
- 25:39Speaker 11: truck every day and I don't even know where.
- 25:42Speaker 2: To go get any red.
- 25:43Speaker 1: That's a good point, man. I wouldn't know where to
- 25:46Speaker 1: go buy it. Is that something you can find a
- 25:49Speaker 1: tractor supply?
- 25:49Speaker 11: No, they don't sell it. Most of it was delivered
- 25:54Speaker 11: directly to big users of it.
- 25:57Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 25:59Speaker 11: And the other thing is, the poor people that use
- 26:02Speaker 11: heating oil this winter are going to get hammered.
- 26:04Speaker 1: Well, I know, and I read they said heating oil
- 26:07Speaker 1: was up 47%. It was just basically electric bills or
- 26:12Speaker 1: energy bills, generally speaking. People are going to have to
- 26:14Speaker 1: gird their loins, but heating oil was definitely the worst
- 26:17Speaker 1: one at 47% increase. I think that was locally reported
- 26:20Speaker 1: or maybe Fox News. I don't know where I got
- 26:22Speaker 1: the info. It was last week I saw that. But
- 26:24Speaker 1: is heating oil the same thing as the diesel as well?
- 26:28Speaker 2: It's close.
- 26:29Speaker 11: It's a little bit less refined, but it comes from
- 26:33Speaker 11: the same pool. So it used to be when they
- 26:36Speaker 11: were legitimate in the wintertime, diesel went up because heating
- 26:40Speaker 11: oil took part of it. And then in the summertime,
- 26:43Speaker 11: there was a glut of it, and diesel would be
- 26:45Speaker 11: less than gas.
- 26:46Speaker 2: Now they just rape us year-round.
- 26:49Speaker 1: Well, I suppose you could put it that way. In
- 26:52Speaker 1: the 5 o'clock hour, you get away with that kind
- 26:54Speaker 1: of comment. Pete, I appreciate the info, brother. You have
- 26:57Speaker 1: a great day. You do the same.
- 27:01Speaker 3: Thanks.
- 27:02Speaker 1: 749-5500, 800-823-TALK, pound 550 on AT & T phones. Stack
- 27:06Speaker 1: is stupid. Give me a call unless you'd rather hear
- 27:08Speaker 1: the stack is stupid, which you're going to do right now.
- 27:10Speaker 1: And from the category of play stupid games, win stupid prizes,
- 27:14Speaker 1: if you're paying attention to what's going on in France,
- 27:16Speaker 1: there's riots in the streets, mostly youths running amok. And
- 27:22Speaker 1: as a consequence of that and the protests getting violence,
- 27:25Speaker 1: we now have a teenager who had his hand blown off.
- 27:29Speaker 1: as the high school protesters clash with French police during
- 27:33Speaker 1: what are described as chaotic riots. Students allegedly protesting poor
- 27:38Speaker 1: conditions and teacher shortages. Why do I sound like I'm
- 27:44Speaker 1: jaded and cynical and skeptical of what's motivating them to
- 27:47Speaker 1: protest in the streets? Many suggesting this has nothing to
- 27:52Speaker 1: do with school conditions. Anyway, a 15-year-old picked up what
- 27:58Speaker 1: is described as a police dispersal grenade, I'm guessing maybe
- 28:01Speaker 1: like a flashbang. Yeah, don't do that. It detonated in
- 28:05Speaker 1: his hand, causing him to lose his hand and part
- 28:08Speaker 1: of his lower arm. Francois Xavier Lauch, the prefect of
- 28:15Speaker 1: the police there, said roughly 200 to 250 protesters had
- 28:18Speaker 1: been hurling objects at the police. Incident involving the teen
- 28:24Speaker 1: happened on the eve of the national demonstration by the
- 28:26Speaker 1: Pupils Union against underfunding, overcrowding, and dilapidation. Well, there you go.
- 28:31Speaker 1: We're in France. They have a Pupils Union. Of course
- 28:36Speaker 1: they do. Government officials have said the protests have evolved
- 28:41Speaker 1: into violence, including some schools being ransacked. That's what you
- 28:44Speaker 1: want to do. Why are we out in the street?
- 28:46Speaker 1: We're focusing on poor conditions. Our schools suck. Let's go
- 28:50Speaker 1: ransack them. Never understood that. Angry people basically tearing up
- 28:59Speaker 1: their own neighborhood. Let's see what Corey's got this morning. Corey,
- 29:02Speaker 1: welcome to the morning show and a happy Tuesday to you.
- 29:06Speaker 1: Happy Tuesday, Brian. Hey, there's a quick comment the company
- 29:10Speaker 1: I work for. We buy roughly 3 million gallons of
- 29:13Speaker 1: diesel every year. And we lock that price in at
- 29:16Speaker 1: the beginning of the year for the red dye. And
- 29:19Speaker 1: we get it and still get it.
- 29:21Speaker 9: We're paying like Something like $ 3. 28 a gallon.
- 29:25Speaker 1: Oh, my God.
- 29:26Speaker 9: And as far as I know, there's no shortage of
- 29:29Speaker 9: the red diesel like the other caller just said.
- 29:32Speaker 1: No kidding. Well, where do you buy it? Obviously, I
- 29:35Speaker 1: don't know where I would go to buy red diesel. Obviously,
- 29:37Speaker 1: it's out there because people use it every single day,
- 29:39Speaker 1: most notably on the road. farms but is there a
- 29:41Speaker 1: wholesale supplier that you get it from because you don't
- 29:43Speaker 1: buy that at a shell station.
- 29:46Speaker 9: Yeah all these oil companies that's around yeah they also
- 29:50Speaker 9: sell the red dye diesel specifically for uh equipment and
- 29:57Speaker 9: farming equipment and that sort of stuff.
- 29:59Speaker 1: So like propane, you can arrange for it to be delivered.
- 30:01Speaker 1: Does that make sense? Is that right?
- 30:03Speaker 12: Correct.
- 30:03Speaker 1: Oh, okay.
- 30:04Speaker 6: Yes.
- 30:05Speaker 13: Yeah.
- 30:05Speaker 9: We got a call a day or two ahead, schedule
- 30:08Speaker 9: a time to meet and they bring their trucks up
- 30:11Speaker 9: and they fill us up. You got like a 500
- 30:15Speaker 9: gallon or 5,000.
- 30:17Speaker 1: Locking it in at that price, you're saving like 50%
- 30:21Speaker 1: off the going rate out in the world right now.
- 30:25Speaker 6: Right.
- 30:25Speaker 1: Well, Pat, whoever made that decision on the back, thank him.
- 30:29Speaker 1: That's serious profit. I suppose you also have a commodity
- 30:32Speaker 1: to the extent the business profits, whatever it is you do,
- 30:34Speaker 1: go down. You guys are sitting on a gold mine
- 30:37Speaker 1: in turn of resaleability. Just go out in the real
- 30:39Speaker 1: world and sell it for $ 5.
- 30:40Speaker 2: 50 a gallon.
- 30:41Speaker 1: That's your fat profit off the three you bought it for.
- 30:44Speaker 1: Appreciate the call, Corey. You have a great day. Tony,
- 30:47Speaker 1: hang on.
- 30:48Speaker 2: You're next.
- 30:49Speaker 1: Line them up, man. I like talking to people and
- 30:51Speaker 1: feeling still a little bit flustered underneath. The kickoff this morning,
- 30:55Speaker 1: so let's have some fun. 545, I'll be right back.
- 31:26Speaker 1: 550-55-KRCD Talk Station. Happy Tuesday. We're going to empower you.
- 31:30Speaker 1: Line up at 705 with Dr. J. Tom Zalastowski at 730.
- 31:33Speaker 1: Breitbart News on what's going on with the right-wing shift
- 31:38Speaker 1: in South America.
- 31:39Speaker 5: One more.
- 31:40Speaker 1: Well, it looks like it's going to fall anyhow. Daniel Davis,
- 31:42Speaker 1: Deep Dive in Iran. And at 850, my good friend
- 31:46Speaker 1: Jeff from 22.3 is going to join us for the
- 31:48Speaker 1: Ask the Expert segment. We're going to talk about the, well,
- 31:52Speaker 1: the law has changed. No taxes on suppressors and short
- 31:56Speaker 1: barrel rifles means you no longer have to fill an
- 32:00Speaker 1: FFL form out. Will that be that Fifth Circuit opinion?
- 32:02Speaker 1: Will that now be the default opinion for all the
- 32:07Speaker 1: courts now? Because the class that was identified in the opinion,
- 32:11Speaker 1: which found that, well, no, you don't have to have
- 32:13Speaker 1: an FFL form to get a suppressor short barrel rifle
- 32:15Speaker 1: applies to just the class that was involved in the lawsuit.
- 32:18Speaker 1: The Trump administration is not appealing that. So that will
- 32:22Speaker 1: stand in that particular circuit, but will it apply elsewhere?
- 32:25Speaker 1: We're going to find that out. We'll see if he
- 32:27Speaker 1: has the answer to that. Jeff, looking forward to having
- 32:28Speaker 1: you on the show, and thank you for holding. Tony,
- 32:30Speaker 1: welcome to the 55 KRC Morning Show.
- 32:33Speaker 14: Hey, I just wanted to share my story in juvenile court.
- 32:37Speaker 14: It's been a while ago, but it exposes the weak
- 32:42Speaker 14: link in the chain, why we have youth problems. But
- 32:45Speaker 14: on this day, there was a really strong link in
- 32:47Speaker 14: the room. So I'm sitting there with my neighbors, and
- 32:50Speaker 14: actually there were a group of children who were breaking
- 32:54Speaker 14: into cars. And by the time we got to court,
- 32:57Speaker 14: there was only one youthful offender with his father. And
- 33:02Speaker 14: then when the judge handed down what the cost of
- 33:10Speaker 14: his debt to society would be, the father spoke up
- 33:12Speaker 14: immediately and said.
- 33:14Speaker 15: Is that all?
- 33:15Speaker 14: He said, I didn't raise my son to be a thief.
- 33:19Speaker 14: And he looked at us and he said, this will
- 33:22Speaker 14: be taken care of when we get home.
- 33:24Speaker 5: Oh, wow.
- 33:25Speaker 14: Look in his eyes. I believed him. So I just
- 33:30Speaker 14: I just wanted to tell you if we had more
- 33:31Speaker 14: like that. I think we'd have less trouble with the youth.
- 33:36Speaker 2: Amen.
- 33:36Speaker 14: So I just wanted to share that with you.
- 33:39Speaker 1: I just remembered several things my father told me as
- 33:42Speaker 1: a child over the years. It's like flashback to my head.
- 33:46Speaker 1: I was more concerned with incurring my dad's wrath than
- 33:50Speaker 1: anything else that could happen to me out in the world. So, yes,
- 33:52Speaker 1: that is a good father.
- 33:53Speaker 14: You know, this happened a while ago. So, you know,
- 33:58Speaker 14: I couldn't even tell you who the judge was. But
- 34:00Speaker 14: to this day, I have not forgotten that father.
- 34:04Speaker 1: How could you? Tony, I appreciate you relaying that story.
- 34:07Speaker 1: They're out there. And one more thing.
- 34:08Speaker 14: Yeah, go ahead. I want to thank all the good
- 34:11Speaker 14: men who are fathers who do take care of things
- 34:13Speaker 14: when they get home.
- 34:15Speaker 1: God bless each and every one of them. And I
- 34:17Speaker 1: appreciate you saying that out loud, Tony. Well worth the
- 34:20Speaker 1: extra moments and time here on the 55 Care to
- 34:22Speaker 1: See Morning Show.
- 34:23Speaker 2: Amen.
- 34:23Speaker 1: Amen. Let us see here who's next. Tom's next. Tom,
- 34:27Speaker 1: welcome to the morning show. Happy Tuesday.
- 34:30Speaker 5: Morning.
- 34:30Speaker 15: So back in the 1970s when we had the oil embargo,
- 34:33Speaker 15: there was a shortage of gasoline and we had to
- 34:35Speaker 15: wait in lines to get gas. I'm not sure about
- 34:39Speaker 15: diesel then, but a lot of companies, like even it
- 34:43Speaker 15: was called Cincinnati Gas and Electric Company, they converted all
- 34:47Speaker 15: their trucks to run on propane.
- 34:49Speaker 3: You don't want to do a total.
- 34:50Speaker 15: Conversion nowadays, but you can put the conversion– a propane
- 34:55Speaker 15: add-on kit onto your truck for between $ 1, 500 and $ 5, 000.
- 34:58Speaker 15: And it gives you better horsepower, more miles per gallon,
- 35:05Speaker 15: and there's no shortage of propane right now. So this
- 35:08Speaker 15: could be a long-term thing.
- 35:11Speaker 2: I believe you.
- 35:13Speaker 1: I guess I want to know what the cost on
- 35:16Speaker 1: a per-mile basis. You get X number of miles with
- 35:19Speaker 1: a gallon of diesel. You get X number of miles
- 35:21Speaker 1: with a gallon of gasoline. How many miles do you
- 35:23Speaker 1: get with an equivalent cost on propane. You know what
- 35:28Speaker 1: I'm saying? I don't know what the price of propane
- 35:31Speaker 1: is relative in terms of mileage as compared to gas
- 35:34Speaker 1: or diesel. I mean, if the math works out, great.
- 35:37Speaker 1: And I don't know what a conversion kit costs, but
- 35:39Speaker 1: you have to factor in the cost of conversion, the
- 35:41Speaker 1: labor that's involved in that, and do the math and
- 35:43Speaker 1: figure out whether over the long term to deal with
- 35:45Speaker 1: this hopefully very temporary spike, it's worth it. But yeah,
- 35:49Speaker 1: I know there are propane vehicles out there. They quite
- 35:51Speaker 1: often have buses that run on propane. Well, you don't
- 35:55Speaker 1: want to do a total conversion.
- 35:56Speaker 15: This is an add-on to inject propane in with your
- 36:00Speaker 15: diesel mixture.
- 36:01Speaker 3: Oh.
- 36:04Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 36:05Speaker 16: Okay.
- 36:05Speaker 15: You have to change the whole engine block if you
- 36:07Speaker 15: want to do a propane total conversion.
- 36:11Speaker 1: Yeah, I can't imagine that being cost-effective. So anyway, obviously
- 36:15Speaker 1: there are options out there, and of course desperate times
- 36:17Speaker 1: call for desperate measures, and if there's a way to
- 36:19Speaker 1: get around the cost of fuel, hopefully people will find it.
- 36:22Speaker 15: Well, there's one good bright side. You've got the propane
- 36:26Speaker 15: gas fireplace for this winter.
- 36:29Speaker 1: Mine's LP or natural gas.
- 36:32Speaker 2: Oh, yeah, natural gas.
- 36:33Speaker 1: Natural gas. Yeah, but, you know, I guess when you
- 36:36Speaker 1: talked about the conversion, I was thinking about my whole
- 36:38Speaker 1: house generator, which runs on natural gas, but you can
- 36:41Speaker 1: easily stick a propane tank or unit on it, and
- 36:44Speaker 1: it will run on propane just the same as it
- 36:45Speaker 1: runs with natural gas. So there's that option. Fortunately, didn't
- 36:49Speaker 1: have to go down that road yet. Appreciate the call, man. CJ,
- 36:53Speaker 1: if you don't mind waiting, we're already out of time
- 36:55Speaker 1: in this hour. I would love to hear from you,
- 36:57Speaker 1: but going to have to hold over the break, and
- 36:59Speaker 1: I encourage you to do that. 513-749-5500, 800-823-TALK, pound 550
- 37:00Speaker 1: on AT & T phones. We'll continue the discussion after
- 37:06Speaker 1: the top of the hour news. Announced yesterday that would
- 37:09Speaker 1: make it a federal crime to develop artificial intelligence, human
- 37:14Speaker 1: cognitive performance across a broad range of tasks.
- 37:17Speaker 17: Weekdays at 9 on 55KRC, the talk station.
- 37:22Speaker 1: It is 6.05 here at 55KRC, the talk station. Happy Tuesday.
- 37:29Speaker 1: Brian Thomas looking for the phone calls. I got CJ
- 37:31Speaker 1: on the line. He decided to hold. I appreciate that.
- 37:33Speaker 1: You can also call in because I'd love to hear
- 37:35Speaker 1: from you this morning.
- 37:36Speaker 3: 513-749-5500.
- 37:36Speaker 1: 800-823-TALK. Pound 550 on AT & T phones. Always remember,
- 37:41Speaker 1: never forget, 55KRC. iheart. com. When you can't listen live, you get
- 37:45Speaker 1: your podcast there. Podcast page has not been updated to
- 37:48Speaker 1: include yesterday's segments because I guess Joe Strecker is the
- 37:51Speaker 1: one that does that all the time. Russ Jackson covering
- 37:54Speaker 1: for the vacationing Joe Strecker. I appreciate Russ doing what
- 37:57Speaker 1: he's doing. And I'm not blaming Russ for the technical
- 37:59Speaker 1: difficulties we encountered this morning. No, he is not to
- 38:02Speaker 1: blame for that. It's the start of the show. A
- 38:03Speaker 1: little bit rocky this morning. Still throwing me off the
- 38:06Speaker 1: back of my heels a little bit. But CJ to
- 38:08Speaker 1: the rescue. CJ, thanks for calling up. Good to hear
- 38:10Speaker 1: from you, and happy Tuesday to you.
- 38:13Speaker 5: Happy Tuesday to you as well.
- 38:14Speaker 18: You know, it is complete campaign season, and it's also
- 38:18Speaker 18: a Trump speech when you get the Rorschach test from
- 38:20Speaker 18: last night in that speech. If you look at what
- 38:26Speaker 18: people are saying, oh, he wanted Iran to attack L.A.
- 38:29Speaker 14: Or San Diego, it's not what he said.
- 38:32Speaker 18: And you're going to get all these people on both
- 38:34Speaker 18: sides all upset and angry, regardless of what you think
- 38:38Speaker 18: about the war in Iran. The president did not call
- 38:41Speaker 18: for the destruction of San Diego and L.A. He clearly
- 38:44Speaker 18: said the price of gas is a small price to pay,
- 38:49Speaker 18: Let them take out San Diego and Los Angeles. I
- 38:52Speaker 18: think you just forgot the next line. That would be
- 38:54Speaker 18: a much higher price to pay. And this is the
- 38:59Speaker 18: problem with social media today. Everybody gets the clip. They're
- 39:02Speaker 18: little two seconds out of the full speech. And now
- 39:06Speaker 18: you get this big controversy that's really dumb. And Republicans
- 39:12Speaker 18: do it.
- 39:12Speaker 19: Democrats do it.
- 39:13Speaker 6: And all it.
- 39:14Speaker 18: Does is create a bunch of hatred towards each other.
- 39:18Speaker 18: And regardless of what you think about this war in Iran,
- 39:21Speaker 18: I think it is very evident that if Iran did
- 39:24Speaker 18: have a bomb or they aren't capable of doing it,
- 39:27Speaker 18: they would clearly take out any city in the United
- 39:30Speaker 18: States without hesitation.
- 39:34Speaker 1: One may presume that. I don't know how they would
- 39:36Speaker 1: deliver the bomb because I don't know that they have
- 39:39Speaker 1: rocket technology that can reach from there to here. Not yet, anyway.
- 39:43Speaker 1: I think the North Koreans have already gotten there, but
- 39:45Speaker 1: we don't talk about that because, you know, I guess
- 39:47Speaker 1: it's okay for the North Koreans to have a bomb,
- 39:48Speaker 1: but the Iranians can't. But, you know, he's taken out
- 39:52Speaker 1: of context all the time. I mean, his comments are
- 39:56Speaker 1: extracted from much longer-winded, contextually-needed segments of his speeches. In
- 40:02Speaker 1: order to understand what exactly he's saying, you could pull
- 40:04Speaker 1: out one sentence from any one of trump's speech and
- 40:07Speaker 1: come up with some negative conclusion about what he actually
- 40:10Speaker 1: means the problem is that's i mean that's what the
- 40:11Speaker 1: mainstream media does and in fact maureen if you're out
- 40:14Speaker 1: there she sent me a montage the thing went on
- 40:16Speaker 1: for about 15 minutes of exactly that what the mainstream
- 40:20Speaker 1: media reported donald trump wants the iranians to blow up
- 40:23Speaker 1: san francisco or whatever and then when you read it
- 40:25Speaker 1: in the broader context you know it's not anything like
- 40:28Speaker 1: what he said i mean that there are some good
- 40:31Speaker 1: people on uh there were some good people was that
- 40:33Speaker 1: charlotte when they had the clan, the racist versus the
- 40:37Speaker 1: Black Lives Matter, whatever. Well, those groups were not the
- 40:41Speaker 1: only ones there, and that's what he was referring to.
- 40:43Speaker 1: There were people out there that were actually interested in
- 40:45Speaker 1: the political realities of what were going on that weren't
- 40:47Speaker 1: interested in beating the crap out of each other or
- 40:50Speaker 1: professing some leftist or far redneck-y ideology. No, he's in
- 40:57Speaker 1: favor of the racists that were there, the Proud Boys
- 41:00Speaker 1: or whatever. That's what he was talking about.
- 41:02Speaker 3: No, it isn't.
- 41:02Speaker 1: If you read everything That's not what he said. He
- 41:04Speaker 1: didn't say attack the Capitol on January 6th, did he? No,
- 41:08Speaker 1: he didn't say anything about using aggressive force or doing
- 41:11Speaker 1: anything like that. And yet, if you pull out one line,
- 41:13Speaker 1: that's what they quote all the time. It's what appears
- 41:15Speaker 1: in memes. People believe that. They don't bother doing their
- 41:17Speaker 1: own homework and finding out. But, you know, when you
- 41:20Speaker 1: see this over and over and over again, you kind
- 41:22Speaker 1: of come to a logical conclusion. You know, Trump is
- 41:25Speaker 1: definitely speaking the truth when he talks about the bias
- 41:27Speaker 1: in the media. I mean, you're angry because he randomly
- 41:31Speaker 1: picked CNN to exclude, but CNN does it all the time.
- 41:33Speaker 1: It's like, why would I reward CNN if I can
- 41:36Speaker 1: take away their access to create fake news about me?
- 41:41Speaker 1: Then I'm going to do it. It doesn't stop CNN
- 41:44Speaker 1: from creating fake news about Trump. It just doesn't give
- 41:46Speaker 1: them closer access to it. So I understand where his
- 41:48Speaker 1: anger stems from, but You know, when you read this
- 41:51Speaker 1: every single day and this is what you do for
- 41:53Speaker 1: a living like me, you can see it and you
- 41:55Speaker 1: look for context and you look for the broadest. There's
- 41:57Speaker 1: no way, for example, if I see a meme like
- 42:00Speaker 1: I have him sent to me all the time. Good morning, Andy.
- 42:02Speaker 1: A lot of times I'm like, does he believe what
- 42:05Speaker 1: he said to me? Even though it's the meme springs
- 42:08Speaker 1: from sort of a conservative or in my case, little
- 42:11Speaker 1: libertarian perspective. I look at something. I go, wait a minute.
- 42:14Speaker 1: That can't be right. And so if you cut and
- 42:16Speaker 1: paste the words and you go, that's a meme, and
- 42:18Speaker 1: actually that was extracted from a broader statement, which really
- 42:22Speaker 1: means nothing at all with what the meme suggests it means.
- 42:25Speaker 1: So we need to do our research and our homework collectively.
- 42:29Speaker 1: But yeah, that he said something that was taken out
- 42:31Speaker 1: of context by the mainstream media, no, that never happens.
- 42:34Speaker 3: Right? Wrong.
- 42:36Speaker 1: All the time. This is the problem with the echo
- 42:39Speaker 1: chambers we find ourselves living in. We choose what we
- 42:43Speaker 1: want to hear. We don't want to be– well, and,
- 42:46Speaker 1: you know, there's a listener that calls every time Daniel
- 42:48Speaker 1: Davis is on it. Since Daniel Davis is coming up
- 42:50Speaker 1: at 830 here on the morning show, I'm going to
- 42:52Speaker 1: say it. Every time Daniel Davis speaks words, this guy
- 42:55Speaker 1: calls and he says, that guy doesn't know what he's
- 42:56Speaker 1: talking about. It's like, really?
- 42:58Speaker 4: Huh.
- 42:59Speaker 1: He's got all the sources. He's got all the inside information.
- 43:01Speaker 1: Just because he says something that you don't like hearing
- 43:05Speaker 1: doesn't mean he's not right.
- 43:07Speaker 6: Why?
- 43:08Speaker 1: And, you know, last time I said, well, what would
- 43:10Speaker 1: you do if you think he's wrong that we– We
- 43:13Speaker 1: need to just go in there. That was pretty much
- 43:15Speaker 1: what I got from this guy. He's always critical. We
- 43:18Speaker 1: can kick the Iranians' butt.
- 43:21Speaker 3: Really?
- 43:21Speaker 1: Have you seen the size of Iran? It's two and
- 43:23Speaker 1: a half times the size of Texas, for God's sake.
- 43:25Speaker 1: Where do you start? How many troops do you need?
- 43:27Speaker 1: How many troops do you need to take over one city,
- 43:29Speaker 1: let alone an entire country? What about all the drone
- 43:32Speaker 1: manufacturing facilities, which you can really literally have in somebody's basement?
- 43:37Speaker 1: With all those square miles and all the buildings and infrastructure,
- 43:40Speaker 1: how do you find them? It takes time. If you
- 43:42Speaker 1: want to engage in that effort, it is going to
- 43:44Speaker 1: be a long, long time before you can finally kick
- 43:48Speaker 1: in every door and find every drone facility. Oh, just
- 43:51Speaker 1: go in and look. That was what I got. See,
- 43:54Speaker 1: that's the kind of response he had. That doesn't mean
- 43:56Speaker 1: Daniel Davis, I mean, that's his response to Daniel Davis,
- 43:59Speaker 1: but Daniel Davis is providing information, valuable, I think it is,
- 44:03Speaker 1: and very factual. I mean, he's been right up to
- 44:05Speaker 1: this point. It ain't over. It wasn't easy. We're still
- 44:09Speaker 1: at it. The straits still closed. They still have drones.
- 44:12Speaker 1: They are still funding terrorist organizations like the Houthis. Far
- 44:16Speaker 1: more complicated than people want to give credit for, but
- 44:19Speaker 1: there you have it. You've got to get outside of
- 44:21Speaker 1: your echo chamber and look. You need to get rid
- 44:23Speaker 1: of the echo chamber websites, or not get rid of them,
- 44:26Speaker 1: but go over to the other ones. Go to sites
- 44:28Speaker 1: that just conflict with your ideology. Read what they have
- 44:31Speaker 1: to say and see if you can find fault with it.
- 44:34Speaker 1: Or maybe you'll find that it isn't all lies over there,
- 44:38Speaker 1: whatever there means from your political perspective, but at least
- 44:41Speaker 1: it'll cause you to think about the other arguments that
- 44:44Speaker 1: are being advanced. It'll cause you to think about the
- 44:47Speaker 1: practical implications of, like, the conflict with Iran. The drone
- 44:51Speaker 1: warfare is no longer missiles and airplanes and Navy vessels. Yeah,
- 44:54Speaker 1: the Navy's on the bottom of the ocean. How is
- 44:56Speaker 1: it that they're still able to wage war against us
- 44:59Speaker 1: and lock up the Strait of Hormuz? Yes, they're being
- 45:02Speaker 1: economically choked and challenged, but Daniel Davis pointed that. They're
- 45:05Speaker 1: used to that. They've been living in misery for 50 years,
- 45:08Speaker 1: on and off varying degrees of misery. This is what
- 45:11Speaker 1: they're used to. Then you've got to factor in, like,
- 45:13Speaker 1: for example, the religious ideology. This isn't a war over
- 45:18Speaker 1: socialism or communism or capitalism. This is a war over
- 45:21Speaker 1: the hearts and religious reality of the Iranian people and
- 45:25Speaker 1: even the subset, the larger subset maybe, of the radicalized
- 45:29Speaker 1: Muslim people that are there. You're not going to get
- 45:31Speaker 1: them to say no to the religion. And they hate us.
- 45:35Speaker 1: We are the Satan of the world. They're not going
- 45:38Speaker 1: to capitulate very easily to this country. So, complicating factors,
- 45:42Speaker 1: which all need to be discussed when you're thinking about
- 45:44Speaker 1: the realities of that conflict. Is it easy to kick
- 45:48Speaker 1: the butts and just drop bombs and kill them all
- 45:50Speaker 1: and let God sort them out, boil down, easy to
- 45:53Speaker 1: solve problem? Hell no, it's not. Not even close. Do
- 45:59Speaker 1: I wish it was?
- 46:01Speaker 20: Of course.
- 46:02Speaker 1: Do I want the United States to finally end the
- 46:04Speaker 1: evil Iranian regime? Well, you know, I really wish Congress
- 46:08Speaker 1: had authorized it because I still believe in the Constitution.
- 46:11Speaker 1: But here we find ourselves, like every conflict since World
- 46:14Speaker 1: War II, unauthorized, sort of presidentially driven, do whatever you want,
- 46:20Speaker 1: and get it over with. Now, are we going to
- 46:22Speaker 1: end up with a Vietnam situation?
- 46:23Speaker 2: Are we going.
- 46:25Speaker 1: To end up with an Afghan situation? Or are we
- 46:27Speaker 1: going to win? So, we're left with the challenges and
- 46:32Speaker 1: we're left with the obligation to look through both sides
- 46:36Speaker 1: or all sides to look at all information and then
- 46:40Speaker 1: try to come up with some logical conclusion. If somebody
- 46:42Speaker 1: has a military strategy to have us come out successful
- 46:46Speaker 1: in a very short period of time, I'd love to
- 46:48Speaker 1: hear what it is. And don't tell me to start
- 46:50Speaker 1: dropping nukes. And you can't just say, let's just go in.
- 46:56Speaker 1: I don't even know what that means. And if you
- 47:00Speaker 1: say it, What about the broader complications that is sort
- 47:04Speaker 1: of stream of consciousness rattled off there? It's not something
- 47:11Speaker 1: that's easily resolved. That sort of concept goes out into
- 47:15Speaker 1: the world in all types of other areas that we
- 47:17Speaker 1: talk about. So just trying to be, you know, rational,
- 47:22Speaker 1: perhaps logical. 615-35-KRC-D Talk Station. How did I get here?
- 47:31Speaker 1: It's been quite an interesting morning for me. Prestige Interiors,
- 47:34Speaker 1: how do you get a great kitchen remodeling project done?
- 47:38Speaker 1: You call John Ryan at Prestige Interiors. You will love
- 47:41Speaker 1: working with John. He's been doing kitchens north of 40 years,
- 47:43Speaker 1: almost exclusively. He did our kitchen about a decade ago.
- 47:47Speaker 1: So easy to work with. He's got brilliant ideas, having
- 47:50Speaker 1: done so many kitchens over the years. Great ideas for
- 47:52Speaker 1: your kitchen. And if it's a small project, that's A-OK.
- 47:55Speaker 1: He can do cabinets and countertops, leave everything else pretty
- 47:57Speaker 1: much the same in terms of the layout and the
- 47:59Speaker 1: structure of the kitchen. If you want to do what
- 48:01Speaker 1: we did, you take everything out and you start from scratch.
- 48:04Speaker 1: He can find room where you think there is no room.
- 48:07Speaker 1: You got a rectangular space. How do you make it bigger?
- 48:09Speaker 1: John Ryan did that for us. We recessed our refrigerator,
- 48:12Speaker 1: so you hardly even see it. It's all tied in
- 48:14Speaker 1: with the cabinetry. Love that look. And thank you, John Ryan,
- 48:18Speaker 1: for achieving that. And just a wonderful kitchen. We're so
- 48:20Speaker 1: happy with what we have. And you will love what
- 48:22Speaker 1: he can do for you, incorporating your design and your ideas,
- 48:25Speaker 1: along with some of his excellent suggestions, like for storage
- 48:28Speaker 1: and other ideas. John Ryan, with you every step of

- 49:55Speaker 1: I'm trying.
- 49:57Speaker 6: It's all going to be good, brother.
- 50:00Speaker 1: I appreciate it.
- 50:02Speaker 2: I apologize.
- 50:02Speaker 1: You know, I, I, this is no, I'm not blaming
- 50:06Speaker 1: Russ at all, but when, when, when the start of
- 50:07Speaker 1: the show is, is just blown and I'm really kind
- 50:10Speaker 1: of figuring out which direction I want to go anyway,
- 50:12Speaker 1: cause I don't really figure that out until I get
- 50:14Speaker 1: here and start preparing in the morning. So I was
- 50:16Speaker 1: really not quite on center when the audio wasn't there
- 50:21Speaker 1: and the microphone wasn't on. And it's like, now I
- 50:23Speaker 1: become even more flustered. I'm like, ah, So, yeah, you
- 50:26Speaker 1: get basically the last, oh, I don't know, hour and
- 50:28Speaker 1: 20 minutes of me to sort of stream of consciousness.
- 50:31Speaker 1: So apologies for that. Hopefully things will work out better tomorrow.
- 50:34Speaker 1: But I appreciate your helping me out this morning, New Hampshire.
- 50:36Speaker 3: Gary?
- 50:38Speaker 2: Absolutely, bud.
- 50:39Speaker 6: Hey, by the way, I'm watching Agenda Free TV on YouTube,
- 50:44Speaker 6: and you can actually watch the riots in real time.
- 50:47Speaker 1: Which ones?
- 50:50Speaker 6: They're burning the streets of Paris.
- 50:53Speaker 2: Oh, yeah? Yeah.
- 50:55Speaker 6: Day over there because now the teacher unions the ones
- 50:59Speaker 6: who are getting their gasoline thrown at them they're joining
- 51:03Speaker 6: the the riots this thing's turning into a big thing
- 51:07Speaker 6: and from what i can tell it is antifa uh
- 51:11Speaker 6: palestine and i i'm thinking all the black block people
- 51:17Speaker 6: are are that are directing this.
- 51:20Speaker 3: And you can see that the ones with the hoods
- 51:22Speaker 3: are the directors.
- 51:24Speaker 6: And then they have people with cameras.
- 51:26Speaker 3: That way, when the.
- 51:27Speaker 6: Police retaliate, then they can claim, oh, they're beating me
- 51:32Speaker 6: and all this fun stuff. And they're just, they're putting
- 51:35Speaker 6: the students out there, you know, Between the women, you know,
- 51:39Speaker 6: they put the young girls, actually, in front so the
- 51:44Speaker 6: police will actually retaliate on them. It's fascinating how this— it' s
- 51:49Speaker 6: all communist flags. Yes. I'm telling the Russians— It's the Chinese.
- 51:54Speaker 6: It's all these countries are funneling their money throughout the
- 52:01Speaker 6: world for all these organizations to start riots. Because I
- 52:06Speaker 6: do believe if we continue going the way we are,
- 52:09Speaker 6: we're going to start World War III.
- 52:11Speaker 3: It's going to happen.
- 52:14Speaker 1: Well, OK, I agree with you that that. At least
- 52:18Speaker 1: my perception of the riots that are going on in
- 52:20Speaker 1: France are not really, that really don't have anything to
- 52:22Speaker 1: do about public schools or education. I mean, it's like
- 52:26Speaker 1: every other angry group. They have been co-opted by Russians,
- 52:32Speaker 1: Chinese Communist Party, nefarious actors, generally speaking, the George Soros
- 52:36Speaker 1: of the world, the people who want one global government
- 52:39Speaker 1: and socialism for all. They're all linked together. You can
- 52:42Speaker 1: throw in the green folks, the climate alarmists and activists,
- 52:45Speaker 1: population control people. They're all, what do we call them?
- 52:48Speaker 1: Idiots who are being manipulated. They're useful idiots because people
- 52:52Speaker 1: don't engage in the process. It was just rambling on
- 52:55Speaker 1: earlier in the program about thoughtful analysis. What is going
- 52:59Speaker 1: on here? What am I doing out on the street
- 53:01Speaker 1: burning stuff up? How does that help my agenda? No,
- 53:05Speaker 1: it's a perception of chaos and disorder. It's designed to
- 53:11Speaker 1: disrupt everyone's thinking about the society or the state or
- 53:17Speaker 1: government they live under. And it looks like it's all
- 53:19Speaker 1: falling apart, which provides a wonderful opportunity for these nefarious
- 53:22Speaker 1: actors to sneak in and complete the job.
- 53:26Speaker 6: Well, I think that if you have internal turmoil happening
- 53:33Speaker 6: throughout all these countries, it prepares for it. United States,
- 53:38Speaker 6: all this, if you're fighting within yourself, you can't be
- 53:41Speaker 6: fighting these other countries like Russia, Ukraine, and you can't
- 53:46Speaker 6: be sending weapons off to them, you know, Israel, Palestine, Iran,
- 53:51Speaker 6: you know, you just name it. The world's one big
- 53:55Speaker 6: trash heap.
- 53:56Speaker 1: Well, I mean, you may want to reach that conclusion.
- 53:59Speaker 1: I understand that. But see, this is the thing that
- 54:02Speaker 1: I've been talking about the left here in the United
- 54:03Speaker 1: States for such a long time. I mean, for years,
- 54:06Speaker 1: We can't even rally together under the flag, the symbol
- 54:11Speaker 1: of freedom. Whatever you perceive the United States to be,
- 54:14Speaker 1: one thing you can say compared to all the other
- 54:17Speaker 1: governments in the world, we are the freest nation out there,
- 54:19Speaker 1: although those freedoms are being eroded every day. I get it.
- 54:22Speaker 1: But I can say what I want here in the
- 54:23Speaker 1: morning show with the exception of some FCC noncompliant words.
- 54:27Speaker 1: I would get arrested for some of the comments I
- 54:29Speaker 1: make if I was in the United Kingdom. I talked
- 54:31Speaker 1: about that the other day. You attack someone or you
- 54:33Speaker 1: make a biologically based argument about LGBTQ and whether a
- 54:37Speaker 1: person can claim they're a different gender. I don't believe
- 54:40Speaker 1: in that. X and Y, chromosomally defined, scientifically backed, Brian Thomas' conclusion,
- 54:45Speaker 1: you can believe whatever you want, but that's me. I'd
- 54:47Speaker 1: get arrested. So we can't even join in unity under
- 54:52Speaker 1: the concept of freedom in this country, which allows the
- 54:54Speaker 1: leftists to scream about what they want, allows conservative people
- 54:57Speaker 1: to scream about what they want. That's gone. We can't
- 55:01Speaker 1: have unity. This is the evil force that is undermining
- 55:05Speaker 1: every government in the world. How do you destroy a
- 55:09Speaker 1: country's value system? You flood it with people that have
- 55:13Speaker 1: no connection whatsoever with your value system. This is a
- 55:16Speaker 1: nefarious reality. What happened to the Biden administration? Open the borders.
- 55:20Speaker 1: Bring in 10 or 20 million people who have lived
- 55:22Speaker 1: under an evil dictatorship or terrible, might I argue, communist
- 55:26Speaker 1: or socialist policies. They come here because we've got it better.
- 55:29Speaker 1: They can hook themselves up to the umbilical cord of government,
- 55:32Speaker 1: which will expedite the collapse of our fiat currency. It
- 55:37Speaker 1: seems so obvious when you step back from it and
- 55:40Speaker 1: you look at what's going on. What was that? What
- 55:45Speaker 1: was that?
- 55:46Speaker 6: I just said you're dead on. Yeah.
- 55:50Speaker 1: Well, that's the goal. And then global government to the rescue?
- 55:56Speaker 1: I don't know, but you may be on to something
- 55:57Speaker 1: with that World War III comment. Martial law, perhaps? There's
- 56:02Speaker 1: a nice vehicle for maintaining oppression of one's people. 626,
- 56:06Speaker 1: 55 care CD talk station. I can save you money
- 56:09Speaker 1: and help you along the way, get your car fixed.
- 56:12Speaker 1: For less money with great customer service, of course, I'm
- 56:14Speaker 1: talking about Foreign Exchange in the Westchester location of Foreign Exchange,
- 56:17Speaker 1: where Austin and his awesome team of ASC-certified master technicians
- 56:21Speaker 1: will most assuredly fix your car, whether your car is
- 56:23Speaker 1: traditionally imported from Asia or Europe, or you're driving a Tesla.
- 56:26Speaker 1: They do service Teslas, and they have all the manufacturer's
- 56:29Speaker 1: technical information, software upgrades. They do everything for your traditionally
- 56:33Speaker 1: imported car, a Tesla. You get a full warranty on
- 56:36Speaker 1: parts and service. And, of course, the money savings is
- 56:39Speaker 1: the primary reason you would go to foreign exchange and
- 56:41Speaker 1: not a dealer. So all things being equal, that's the
- 56:44Speaker 1: one bottom line, your bottom line. So save yourself a
- 56:47Speaker 1: heap load of money and get great customer service and
- 56:49Speaker 1: a warranty, absolutely. A-plus with the BBB Westchester location can

- 57:34Speaker 1: Chuck Ingram, 55KRC, the talk station. Just shy of 631
- 57:42Speaker 1: here in the 55 KRC Morning Show.
- 57:45Speaker 2: 513-749-5500.
- 57:46Speaker 1: 800-823-TALK. Time 550 on AT & T. Phones over the phones.
- 57:48Speaker 1: Forget the local stories. Bobby's on the phone. Bobby, something
- 57:53Speaker 1: had in the back of my head you might be
- 57:54Speaker 1: calling this morning concerning the subject matter going on. Welcome back.
- 57:59Speaker 3: Well, thank you, my friend. Happy Tuesday to you.
- 58:02Speaker 1: Try to make it so.
- 58:04Speaker 3: I know. Well, it's two for Tuesday. I've got two
- 58:07Speaker 3: different topics and two different words. One of them for
- 58:10Speaker 3: the local is it's Parents Weekend at UC.
- 58:16Speaker 1: Is that really a thing, Bobby, or are you just
- 58:18Speaker 1: making that up?
- 58:19Speaker 3: No, it is a thing, and I hope it turns
- 58:22Speaker 3: out well.
- 58:22Speaker 1: Oh, I thought it was a tongue-in-cheek comment about parents
- 58:25Speaker 1: having to go to UC to help out their distraught
- 58:28Speaker 1: children who've been victims of criminal activity around the campus.
- 58:32Speaker 3: Well, you being the previous student, you know they have
- 58:35Speaker 3: a parent weekend. I know. That's what's coming up. So
- 58:38Speaker 3: hopefully everything turns out well. And the other topic is
- 58:43Speaker 3: everybody has to understand we're in the midst of a
- 58:45Speaker 3: cultural revolution.
- 58:47Speaker 2: Clearly.
- 58:48Speaker 3: They start slow. And if you always remember, it doesn't
- 58:51Speaker 3: matter if you go back to the late 20s, DeGaulle's era, hey,
- 58:58Speaker 3: it always starts in Europe. Then it trickles over here.
- 59:02Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 59:02Speaker 3: Well, Europe's need to be prepared.
- 59:04Speaker 1: Europe has been dealing with the open borders problem, for
- 59:07Speaker 1: a lot more years than we have, and look at
- 59:09Speaker 1: the chaos that's unfolded there.
- 59:13Speaker 3: France may collapse.
- 59:16Speaker 1: Certainly possible. And let's face it, Germany's economic policies in
- 59:21Speaker 1: and of themselves may cause their economy to collapse. There's
- 59:23Speaker 1: such idiots pursuing or chasing their tail trying to rid
- 59:26Speaker 1: the world of carbon dioxide. And who do you think's
- 59:29Speaker 1: behind that nefarious campaign? Bobby, do you think the Chinese
- 59:32Speaker 1: Communist Party has anything to do with Western Europe and
- 59:35Speaker 1: the United States cutting their own respective throats in the
- 59:38Speaker 1: name of trying to limit carbon dioxide? Maybe, just maybe, might.
- 59:44Speaker 3: If you read their doctrine, that's exactly what they want
- 59:46Speaker 3: to do.
- 59:47Speaker 14: Of course.
- 59:48Speaker 3: Salt belly. Of course.
- 59:50Speaker 1: They've got bot farms producing propaganda using artificial intelligence to
- 59:54Speaker 1: make it sound like a real human being. It carries
- 59:56Speaker 1: the opinions that are being voiced far and wide on
- 59:59Speaker 1: the Internet. In the echo chambers that people find themselves in, yeah, perfect.
- 1:00:04Speaker 1: You've got a left-wing site that believes we're exhaling ourselves
- 1:00:06Speaker 1: into oblivion. That's where the CCP goes in order to
- 1:00:09Speaker 1: foment more rage and more memes and circulate more propaganda
- 1:00:13Speaker 1: about why we need to, well, cut our collective throats legislatively. Yeah,
- 1:00:18Speaker 1: while they build coal plants.
- 1:00:21Speaker 3: Naive and complacent. That's what most people are. It's unfortunate
- 1:00:25Speaker 3: because what will happen is they wait for it to
- 1:00:28Speaker 3: be at their doorstep. You shouldn't do that. You need
- 1:00:32Speaker 3: to be prepared.
- 1:00:33Speaker 1: And look what our education is churning out. People who
- 1:00:37Speaker 1: are incapable of, well, wading through the facts and the
- 1:00:40Speaker 1: information and coming up with logical and reasonable conclusions. They
- 1:00:43Speaker 1: just do what they are told, these young people. It's
- 1:00:47Speaker 1: like being taught the test. All you were given is
- 1:00:49Speaker 1: the answers, not how you arrive at the answer, just
- 1:00:53Speaker 1: what the answer is.
- 1:00:56Speaker 3: If you grab any young person and ask them just
- 1:00:58Speaker 3: a simple question, what does cause and effect mean? Give
- 1:01:02Speaker 3: me examples of cause and effect. They just look at you. Yeah. Cause.
- 1:01:10Speaker 1: Open borders with floods of humanity that have no connection
- 1:01:13Speaker 1: with the freedoms, liberties, and the foundations that made this
- 1:01:16Speaker 1: country so great. If fact, right, it disappears.
- 1:01:20Speaker 3: I agree with you, my friend. We're on the same page.
- 1:01:24Speaker 8: I know.
- 1:01:25Speaker 2: I know.
- 1:01:25Speaker 1: And coupled with a whole bunch of useful idiots who
- 1:01:27Speaker 1: can't care for themselves, all these puzzle pieces tend to
- 1:01:31Speaker 1: fall into place. Plus, the other conferrious thing we don't
- 1:01:35Speaker 1: often talk about is the reduction in disposable income. You know,
- 1:01:39Speaker 1: this isn't, you know, I need a higher minimum wage.
- 1:01:41Speaker 1: This is every area of your world has gotten so
- 1:01:45Speaker 1: much more expensive. Insurance is more expensive. Price of electricity
- 1:01:49Speaker 1: is more expensive. Price of energy is more expensive. Everything's
- 1:01:52Speaker 1: whittling away what we used to have as disposable income.
- 1:01:55Speaker 1: We all feel like we just can't make it. We
- 1:01:57Speaker 1: aren't going to be able to save for our retirement. Oh,
- 1:01:59Speaker 1: my God, what am I going to do? I need
- 1:02:01Speaker 1: a big government program to help save me. The government programs,
- 1:02:05Speaker 1: they probably are the ones responsible for whittling away all
- 1:02:08Speaker 1: your disposable income. Appreciate it, Bobby. 635, maybe you got
- 1:02:13Speaker 1: a different take on it. I'd love to hear from you. 513-749-5500, 800-823-TALK.
- 1:02:15Speaker 1: You know me, I'm always about saving money. Speaking of money,
- 1:02:19Speaker 1: there's one of the ways you can reduce fairly substantially
- 1:02:23Speaker 1: or maybe even very substantially subjective opinion, but you will
- 1:02:27Speaker 1: reduce your energy bill with USA's premium foam in the
- 1:02:30Speaker 1: exterior walls of your home if you need it. That's
- 1:02:32Speaker 1: why USA offers a free inspection. Get in touch with USA.
- 1:02:35Speaker 1: Have them come over and inspect your home. The exterior
- 1:02:37Speaker 1: walls are supposed to have a good high R-value insulation
- 1:02:40Speaker 1: in them, and you probably don't have it if your
- 1:02:42Speaker 1: home was built, of course, before the mid-' 70s when they
- 1:02:45Speaker 1: didn't put anything in the exterior walls. And then after,
- 1:02:46Speaker 1: there was a long period of time where you had,
- 1:02:48Speaker 1: comparatively to modern insulation, inferior insulation. I use my daughter's
- 1:02:53Speaker 1: house as an example because we had their home foam.
- 1:02:55Speaker 1: All they had was a little R-12 in there from
- 1:02:58Speaker 1: late-' 70s when the home was built. and it had deteriorated
- 1:03:01Speaker 1: to the point where you don't even get an R12.
- 1:03:03Speaker 1: Put the foam from USA in with that. You've got
- 1:03:05Speaker 1: a well-insulated home. You will have guaranteed comfort improvement day
- 1:03:08Speaker 1: one and energy savings every month, at least if you're
- 1:03:11Speaker 1: using the HVAC system. A lot of listeners say 50%.
- 1:03:15Speaker 1: I think a lot of people can save $ 99 a
- 1:03:18Speaker 1: month given the price of your Duke bill. $ 99 a
- 1:03:20Speaker 1: month interest-free is all USA costs, and Steve is offering
- 1:03:23Speaker 1: another dangling carrot, $ 500 discount. So call them up, get
- 1:03:28Speaker 1: your home inspected, find out if you need it, and
- 1:03:29Speaker 1: if you don't, they'll be honest with you and tell you.
- 1:03:32Speaker 3: 513-381-FOAM.
- 1:03:33Speaker 10: It takes 15 minutes and can save your life. Schedule
- 1:03:36Speaker 10: yours with UC Health Press Imaging Experts at 513-584-PINK. Northbound

- 1:04:14Speaker 1: at 730. In the meantime, let's head on over to
- 1:04:16Speaker 1: the phones and get Todd's call. Todd, thanks for calling
- 1:04:18Speaker 1: this morning. Happy Tuesday to you.
- 1:04:21Speaker 3: Hey, good morning, Brian.
- 1:04:24Speaker 5: First off, I went to Listener Lunch at the Turf Club,
- 1:04:28Speaker 5: and it was amazing. I shared a table with Submariner
- 1:04:32Speaker 5: Mike and his bride, and that was a great time.
- 1:04:35Speaker 1: He's a good man.
- 1:04:36Speaker 5: Thank you for doing those.
- 1:04:38Speaker 1: Oh, I love it. Can I ask you a question?
- 1:04:40Speaker 1: Because I go way, way back with the Turf Club.
- 1:04:43Speaker 1: Some people love it. Some people are like, man, whatever.
- 1:04:45Speaker 1: I don't care. It's one of my favorite joints, if
- 1:04:47Speaker 1: you know what I mean. Had you been there before?
- 1:04:51Speaker 4: Oh, yeah.
- 1:04:51Speaker 17: Okay.
- 1:04:51Speaker 14: Yeah.
- 1:04:52Speaker 5: All right.
- 1:04:52Speaker 1: So you knew what you were doing.
- 1:04:53Speaker 2: Back in the day.
- 1:04:55Speaker 5: Yeah, I was back there back during its previous management.
- 1:04:59Speaker 5: But it's always been a great place.
- 1:05:04Speaker 1: Terry was, shall we say, a bit old school. I
- 1:05:07Speaker 1: don't think he evolved from the Mad Men days of
- 1:05:09Speaker 1: the 60s on some levels. But, yeah, he was quite
- 1:05:12Speaker 1: a character. But, yeah, under new management for quite some time.
- 1:05:17Speaker 3: Now.
- 1:05:17Speaker 5: Yeah, he was different, that's for sure.
- 1:05:19Speaker 1: Yeah, we'll say. That's a word.
- 1:05:21Speaker 6: Anyway.
- 1:05:22Speaker 19: Yeah.
- 1:05:23Speaker 5: But anyway, about the violence in the UC area, now
- 1:05:28Speaker 5: I've worked up in that area for about 14 years,
- 1:05:32Speaker 5: and I myself haven't really experienced any.
- 1:05:37Speaker 2: Of the violence, but as I've said before.
- 1:05:40Speaker 5: People tend to leave me alone. I'm kind of bigger
- 1:05:43Speaker 5: than most people wandering around, but... And I hear all
- 1:05:49Speaker 5: the ideas about we're going to put some extra police here,
- 1:05:52Speaker 5: some more lights there, close some streets down there. But
- 1:05:56Speaker 5: what I don't hear, and it would be interesting to
- 1:06:00Speaker 5: hear from, you know, maybe if Judge Bloom could weigh
- 1:06:05Speaker 5: in on what she thinks could possibly curb some of this,
- 1:06:10Speaker 5: or maybe Connie Pillage or any of those favorite targets
- 1:06:15Speaker 5: of Signal 99, you know, who is highlighting where some
- 1:06:19Speaker 5: of this problem stems from. And pretty much it's the
- 1:06:23Speaker 5: lack of accountability.
- 1:06:26Speaker 2: Well, it is.
- 1:06:27Speaker 1: That's why I jokingly refer to one of the solutions
- 1:06:30Speaker 1: offered by our elected officials downtown is to deploy caring,
- 1:06:35Speaker 1: concerned parents who will teach their children discipline, respect, what
- 1:06:39Speaker 1: it's like to live in a world with other people,
- 1:06:42Speaker 1: that kind of thing, where they don't go out and
- 1:06:43Speaker 1: want to engage in criminal activity.
- 1:06:47Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, that's.
- 1:06:50Speaker 5: You know, the home is where a lot of it begins.
- 1:06:52Speaker 1: Most of it.
- 1:06:54Speaker 5: But when you face no repercussions for your actions, which
- 1:06:59Speaker 5: is basically what's happening right now, it's kind of, it's
- 1:07:03Speaker 5: not even a revolving door. It's just a flat-out open door.
- 1:07:08Speaker 5: And I mentioned the Judge Blum in particular because that.
- 1:07:13Speaker 6: Seems to be.
- 1:07:15Speaker 5: one of Signal 99's favorite topics, and rightfully so.
- 1:07:19Speaker 1: Justifiably so. She's the head of the juvenile department, and
- 1:07:22Speaker 1: she's responsible for implementing policy. And her policy, apparently, whether
- 1:07:26Speaker 1: it's formally written down or not, it's being followed, is
- 1:07:29Speaker 1: to treat these juvenile offenders with the most kid of
- 1:07:32Speaker 1: kid gloves you can. Let them out. No bond. Free
- 1:07:36Speaker 1: them out. No true repercussions. I joke about it all
- 1:07:39Speaker 1: the time. You get juice and a cookie. That's your sentence.
- 1:07:43Speaker 1: Regardless of what you did, you're a juvenile and caught
- 1:07:46Speaker 1: with a firearm in a city that screams out loud
- 1:07:49Speaker 1: all day long about firearm crimes. Oh, my God, we've
- 1:07:52Speaker 1: got to get the guns off the street. We've got
- 1:07:53Speaker 1: an opportunity right there. Treat that juvenile very harshly. Lock
- 1:07:57Speaker 1: them up to the extent of the law. Try them
- 1:07:59Speaker 1: as an adult because they had a firearm, for God's sake.
- 1:08:01Speaker 1: The word would get out.
- 1:08:05Speaker 5: Oh, it would get out real quick. But the word
- 1:08:08Speaker 5: that's getting out right now is you can downtown or
- 1:08:12Speaker 5: uptown Do whatever you want and get you some street cred,
- 1:08:17Speaker 5: and you're not going to face any time or any repercussions.
- 1:08:21Speaker 8: Right.
- 1:08:22Speaker 1: And then the problem grows. The word spreads. That's what
- 1:08:25Speaker 1: social media is all about. I'm sure they all know.
- 1:08:29Speaker 1: Just the decision of which juveniles are going to go
- 1:08:31Speaker 1: out and actually break the law. And apparently there's a
- 1:08:34Speaker 1: whole lot of them that are willing to do that.
- 1:08:37Speaker 1: Knowing full well there won't be any consequences. See, that's
- 1:08:39Speaker 1: where the criminal justice system is supposed to take over,
- 1:08:42Speaker 1: where I believe the family has failed. Discipline then comes
- 1:08:48Speaker 1: from involvement with the criminal justice system. And if you
- 1:08:52Speaker 1: had discipline at home, like if you, well, were raised
- 1:08:56Speaker 1: by a father like I was raised and a mom,
- 1:09:00Speaker 1: you tended to steer clear of breaking the law 656
- 1:09:03Speaker 1: thanks for the call todd 55 care cd talk station
- 1:09:06Speaker 1: dr jay rissover on the empower you seminars going on
- 1:09:08Speaker 1: this week and tom zalastowski at 7 30 we the
- 1:09:11Speaker 1: people convention.org be right back 7.05 at 55K or CD
- 1:09:31Speaker 1: Talk Station. Happy Tuesday. Listen to lunch tomorrow. Going to
- 1:09:35Speaker 1: be at Jim and Jack's on the River for the
- 1:09:36Speaker 1: last one before the election. Speaking of election, early voting
- 1:09:39Speaker 1: starts today. Recommend folks get over the, for example, Hamilton
- 1:09:42Speaker 1: County Board of Elections if you're in Hamilton County and registered. Yesterday,
- 1:09:46Speaker 1: last day to register. I hope you are registered and pleased.
- 1:09:48Speaker 1: Dear God, get out there, vote, and have your friends
- 1:09:51Speaker 1: go vote. Talk to them about the importance of voting.
- 1:09:53Speaker 1: Don't let them sit on their hands. Doing so will
- 1:09:55Speaker 1: just be one more move towards socialism in this country,
- 1:09:58Speaker 1: which has got me freaked out. Somebody might see a
- 1:10:00Speaker 1: listener lunch tomorrow, and I hope he's there. He's been
- 1:10:02Speaker 1: regularly showing up at listeners.
- 1:10:03Speaker 2: Dr.
- 1:10:03Speaker 1: Jay Risover, who has taken the helm at empoweryouamerica.org. Wonderful
- 1:10:08Speaker 1: opportunity to learn some stuff about a wide variety of topics,
- 1:10:11Speaker 1: and he's joining the program, as he'll start doing every week,
- 1:10:13Speaker 1: to talk about what seminars are coming up. Welcome back, Dr.
- 1:10:16Speaker 3: Jay.
- 1:10:16Speaker 1: You going to be at lunch at Jim and Jack's
- 1:10:18Speaker 1: on the River tomorrow?
- 1:10:18Speaker 4: Yeah. I will definitely be there. Hope to see everyone there.
- 1:10:22Speaker 4: Please come up. If you have any ideas for Empower
- 1:10:24Speaker 4: You classes, let me know. I'm the guy in the hat.
- 1:10:27Speaker 1: The guy in the hat. Yes, he's got a well-trimmed beard,
- 1:10:30Speaker 1: and he's always wearing a hat. There you go. Humble
- 1:10:34Speaker 1: before God, right, Jay?
- 1:10:37Speaker 4: Indeed indeed so uh we have a great week ahead
- 1:10:41Speaker 4: of us and a great week behind us but i
- 1:10:43Speaker 4: want to say one thing in red letters at the
- 1:10:45Speaker 4: beginning we are not having a class on thursday this
- 1:10:48Speaker 4: week we have a class on tuesday and wednesday so
- 1:10:51Speaker 4: that's tonight and tomorrow.
- 1:10:53Speaker 1: Night what is the reason for the change jay because
- 1:10:56Speaker 1: i think the norm is going to be and is
- 1:10:58Speaker 1: tuesday thursday with the tuesday being uh streaming only online
- 1:11:02Speaker 1: and the uh thursday optionally to show up in class
- 1:11:04Speaker 1: or or or uh log in from home.
- 1:11:08Speaker 4: That is correct. It was scheduling issues. We just had
- 1:11:12Speaker 4: to do it on Wednesday this week. And rather than
- 1:11:15Speaker 4: have a week with one class, we shifted to Wednesday.
- 1:11:18Speaker 4: But we have a great Wednesday class. And tonight is
- 1:11:21Speaker 4: even better, perhaps. It's hard to say. It'll be a
- 1:11:23Speaker 4: virtual class, but it's well worth going to. We're going
- 1:11:26Speaker 4: to have Stephen Tuck, who is a professor at Miami University,
- 1:11:31Speaker 4: and I'm a Bearcat, so, you know, if he can't
- 1:11:33Speaker 4: go to UC, I mean, Miami's okay, all right?
- 1:11:36Speaker 2: But he is excellent.
- 1:11:38Speaker 4: He is a world-class expert on Roman history and on Pompeii.
- 1:11:44Speaker 4: And he is going to talk about what we've learned
- 1:11:45Speaker 4: about the ancient Roman city of Pompeii. And he is
- 1:11:48Speaker 4: an expert in this. In fact, he has been extensively
- 1:11:51Speaker 4: quoted in part of a Disney Hulu series, a seven-part
- 1:11:56Speaker 4: docu-series on Pompeii. He's also been in a different series
- 1:12:00Speaker 4: on Pompeii in PBS. So this is the expert right
- 1:12:05Speaker 4: here at Miami University, and we'll be treasured to listen
- 1:12:09Speaker 4: and look at the slides and the things you're going
- 1:12:11Speaker 4: to have to tell us about Pompeii. And there's new developments.
- 1:12:15Speaker 4: They have been doing some new techniques to look at
- 1:12:18Speaker 4: with MRI and CT scanning, and they're always finding new things.
- 1:12:24Speaker 4: So please, that's tonight, 7 o'clock.
- 1:12:28Speaker 1: Maybe you don't know, and this is certainly a question
- 1:12:30Speaker 1: you can ask him.
- 1:12:31Speaker 3: Yes.
- 1:12:33Speaker 1: It seems like it's a truly unique city preserved beneath
- 1:12:40Speaker 1: all the volcanic ash and lava and everything. It's been preserved.
- 1:12:44Speaker 1: It's like it was a frozen moment in time. And
- 1:12:47Speaker 1: had that volcano not erupted, I think like all Roman cities,
- 1:12:50Speaker 1: Pompeii would have just fallen into ruin and we wouldn't
- 1:12:52Speaker 1: have all of this perfectly preserved evidence of what life
- 1:12:57Speaker 1: was like back then. I mean, there's some fascinating things
- 1:12:59Speaker 1: that have been found in the Pompeii ruins.
- 1:13:02Speaker 4: That is true. A lot of what we know about
- 1:13:03Speaker 4: the Roman Empire is from this particular city. And you're
- 1:13:08Speaker 4: exactly right. Mount Vesuvius erupted. It got covered with ash
- 1:13:12Speaker 4: very quickly. People died from the clouds of smoke and ash.
- 1:13:16Speaker 4: And then they got covered over and preserved. And they
- 1:13:20Speaker 4: have papyrus scrolls that are rolled up and intact. And
- 1:13:23Speaker 4: with new MRI technology or CAT scan technology, they're trying
- 1:13:26Speaker 4: to look inside the roll. Because you can't unroll it.
- 1:13:29Speaker 4: It will just crumble into ash. But it's clothing, textiles, mosaics, people.
- 1:13:37Speaker 4: It's an amazing thing. So, yeah, Stephen Tuck tonight, 7 o'clock, 815.
- 1:13:43Speaker 4: This is virtual, only online. And, of course, our website
- 1:13:47Speaker 4: is empoweryouamerica.org. go to empower you america.org and click on

- 1:14:04Speaker 1: Great so empower you america tomorrow night out of the
- 1:14:08Speaker 1: norm but it's still a class two classes this week
- 1:14:11Speaker 1: there are always two classes a week with empower you

- 1:14:16Speaker 1: That's tomorrow night. And you can show up at 300
- 1:14:19Speaker 1: Scarlet Oaks Drive for the PowerU lecture room, correct?
- 1:14:24Speaker 4: Righto. 300 Scarlet Oaks Drive within the campus of Scarlet Oaks.
- 1:14:29Speaker 4: So that would be October 7th. Tomorrow, Jet Noise is
- 1:14:32Speaker 4: the Sound of Freedom. That's Jim Pfaff. He's telling us
- 1:14:35Speaker 4: about his book that he wrote about that. He is
- 1:14:40Speaker 4: an aviator, ex-Air Force. And it's like the history of
- 1:14:43Speaker 4: the Air Force and jet engines and military. He's talking
- 1:14:47Speaker 4: about aviation pioneers and old planes and new planes. He's
- 1:14:52Speaker 4: a great speaker and a really nice guy. I've talked
- 1:14:55Speaker 4: to him a couple times. I wouldn't be surprised if
- 1:14:57Speaker 4: he shows up tomorrow at Listener Lunch. I believe he
- 1:15:00Speaker 4: was at.
- 1:15:01Speaker 3: The last one.
- 1:15:02Speaker 14: So.
- 1:15:03Speaker 4: But before we have Jim Fass, we're going to have
- 1:15:06Speaker 4: a guy talking about the Hamilton County GOP and upcoming elections.
- 1:15:09Speaker 4: That's our Take 20, as we call our 20-minute sessions.
- 1:15:14Speaker 4: And we're going to have Josh Gerth, who I believe
- 1:15:16Speaker 4: has been on.
- 1:15:17Speaker 3: Your show before.
- 1:15:18Speaker 1: Yes, he has. He's a good guy. He's really taken
- 1:15:20Speaker 1: the helm on the Hamilton County Republican Party as chairman.
- 1:15:23Speaker 1: And by all accounts, he's doing a really good job,
- 1:15:26Speaker 1: very enthused, energetic. And he's optimistic, too, which is a
- 1:15:30Speaker 1: word a lot of Republicans can't find in their lexicon
- 1:15:32Speaker 1: these days.
- 1:15:35Speaker 4: Yes, he is so enthusiastic and so full of energy.
- 1:15:37Speaker 4: I've heard him speak. I've seen him in a couple events.
- 1:15:40Speaker 4: I can't wait to hear him speak at our place
- 1:15:42Speaker 4: telling us about what's going on in Hampton County. But
- 1:15:45Speaker 4: you listen to him for five minutes, and you do
- 1:15:46Speaker 4: get energized. So as you were talking about the people
- 1:15:49Speaker 4: who are sitting on their hands and wondering about voting,
- 1:15:51Speaker 4: listen to Josh Gerth if you can't listen to Brian
- 1:15:53Speaker 4: or me. It's very important, and he's a great guy.
- 1:15:56Speaker 4: Come and get fired up.
- 1:15:58Speaker 1: Brian delivers the message better than Brian Thomas can. He
- 1:16:00Speaker 1: is really good at what he does. And let's see here.
- 1:16:03Speaker 1: Can somebody ask me tomorrow evening, Jim Favre, because I
- 1:16:06Speaker 1: don't think I can make the seminar, the U.S. Air
- 1:16:09Speaker 1: Force guy. Will there be jets down the road? His
- 1:16:12Speaker 1: book obviously sings the praises of jets, the sound of freedom.
- 1:16:15Speaker 1: But with drones and how inexpensive they are, no obligation
- 1:16:19Speaker 1: to save them, protect the pilot. And I can't imagine
- 1:16:21Speaker 1: how many millions of dollars go into every single jet
- 1:16:23Speaker 1: fighter solely because. designed to protect the pilot if you
- 1:16:27Speaker 1: eliminate the pilot you go autonomous that's one problem that's
- 1:16:30Speaker 1: solved no loss of life and of course a lot
- 1:16:31Speaker 1: cheaper to make will we need jets down the road
- 1:16:34Speaker 1: i guess that's the kind of a question that's been
- 1:16:35Speaker 1: swirling in my mind for quite some time.
- 1:16:38Speaker 4: That is a good question there's no doubt that manned
- 1:16:41Speaker 4: pilots will go down as drones go up just from
- 1:16:43Speaker 4: my armchair perspective i believe you think that also yes
- 1:16:47Speaker 4: i do And so I want to look forward. That's
- 1:16:51Speaker 4: a good question. We'll ask him that. Looking forward a
- 1:16:53Speaker 4: little bit the following week, we're going to have assessing
- 1:16:55Speaker 4: the midterm elections with Breitbart's Bradley Jay on Tuesday, the 13th, virtually.
- 1:17:01Speaker 4: On October 15th next week, that'll be something fun and different.
- 1:17:04Speaker 4: We're going to have Krav Maga, the Israeli self-defense martial
- 1:17:07Speaker 4: art by our local expert, Aaron Binnick Thomas, who has
- 1:17:10Speaker 4: a Krav Maga gym in Blue Ash.
- 1:17:13Speaker 1: Does he really?
- 1:17:14Speaker 4: He's going to explain it to us. Yeah, talk about
- 1:17:16Speaker 4: it a bit and even give us some moves. and
- 1:17:19Speaker 4: i told him our audience is not necessarily all young
- 1:17:22Speaker 4: fit army people he says that's fine i have moves
- 1:17:24Speaker 4: for people of any age you'll learn something that'll be
- 1:17:27Speaker 4: useful to you no matter your age at this.
- 1:17:30Speaker 1: Class well isn't krav maga the ultimate kick-ass kind of
- 1:17:33Speaker 1: martial art i've heard that before you know of course
- 1:17:36Speaker 1: you can pursue judo or taekwondo or karate there's a
- 1:17:40Speaker 1: million different forms of you know martial arts out there
- 1:17:42Speaker 1: but I have been led to believe, perhaps erroneously, that
- 1:17:45Speaker 1: if you want to learn one and you want to
- 1:17:47Speaker 1: be able to defend yourself and do some serious damage,
- 1:17:49Speaker 1: it's Krav Maga.
- 1:17:52Speaker 6: I've heard it's modern.
- 1:17:53Speaker 4: It was developed, I think, in the 60s by the
- 1:17:55Speaker 4: Israeli Defense Force. They created it from picking a bunch
- 1:17:59Speaker 4: of different disciplines and putting stuff together that they've owned
- 1:18:01Speaker 4: for a while. And, you know, they're pretty badass. It
- 1:18:05Speaker 4: sounds good. You know, there's a guy in this radio
- 1:18:07Speaker 4: station that sometimes talks.
- 1:18:09Speaker 3: I think his name is Sean Hannity.
- 1:18:10Speaker 1: I've heard him once.
- 1:18:12Speaker 4: I think he talks about his doing Krav.
- 1:18:15Speaker 2: Maga a lot.
- 1:18:16Speaker 1: Yeah, he talks about that regularly. He also talks about
- 1:18:18Speaker 1: carrying concealed and owning firearms and burning systems. And yeah,
- 1:18:22Speaker 1: he's all about self-defense, and I applaud him in that regard.
- 1:18:26Speaker 4: Yeah, so looking forward to hearing our local expert explain
- 1:18:29Speaker 4: it to us.
- 1:18:30Speaker 3: It should be good. No doubt.
- 1:18:31Speaker 2: As long as I'm.
- 1:18:31Speaker 4: Talking on that particular date, a guy also near and
- 1:18:34Speaker 4: dear to your heart, Jack Atherton, will be telling us
- 1:18:36Speaker 4: about why November's issues are identical to those 250 years ago.
- 1:18:41Speaker 1: He's such a great speaker. He's a brilliant guy. And,
- 1:18:43Speaker 1: of course, he'll be on the program tomorrow at 7.05
- 1:18:45Speaker 1: for The Big Picture. Good morning, Jack out of him,
- 1:18:48Speaker 1: if you're out there listening right now. Looking forward to
- 1:18:50Speaker 1: the seminar. Again, go to empoweryouamerica.org. Check out the full
- 1:18:54Speaker 1: lineup and mark your calendar down so you don't forget them. But, Jay,
- 1:18:57Speaker 1: isn't it true that you can watch the prior classes
- 1:18:59Speaker 1: right there from the website?
- 1:19:02Speaker 5: You sure can.
- 1:19:02Speaker 4: They're all up and loaded. In fact, I was just
- 1:19:04Speaker 4: checking it out. It's so nice that technically things.
- 1:19:07Speaker 3: Are working well.
- 1:19:08Speaker 4: Again, I want to thank Mike and Joe and Jerry
- 1:19:10Speaker 4: who have been working hard on this.
- 1:19:13Speaker 2: It's working.
- 1:19:14Speaker 4: You can look at classes.
- 1:19:15Speaker 2: It's all there.
- 1:19:16Speaker 4: So please come join us. You know, our latest technical
- 1:19:19Speaker 4: problem was we had a cable that was bad. So
- 1:19:21Speaker 4: that's getting replaced. It's amazing how just a bad cable
- 1:19:24Speaker 4: can cause so many troubles.
- 1:19:25Speaker 1: Oh, I don't know. We can ask Russ Jackson about
- 1:19:27Speaker 1: technical difficulties starting off the show this morning. I'm on
- 1:19:30Speaker 1: the long list and litany of technical difficulties plaguing us
- 1:19:34Speaker 1: over the years. Yeah, I get it. The world's an
- 1:19:36Speaker 1: imperfect place.
- 1:19:38Speaker 4: I've never had technical difficulties.
- 1:19:40Speaker 2: Wait a minute.
- 1:19:40Speaker 4: I've listened to you for a long time.
- 1:19:43Speaker 1: Pull your tongue out of your cheek. You're going to
- 1:19:44Speaker 1: pop a hole in it, Jay. Watch out. Jay Rissover,
- 1:19:47Speaker 1: thank you for helping out with Empower You. A wonderful
- 1:19:49Speaker 1: opportunity to learn. Just go to empoweryouamerica.org and check it
- 1:19:53Speaker 1: all out. I'll see you tomorrow at lunch, brother. It's
- 1:19:55Speaker 1: great having you on the show, as always. 716-55-KRC, the
- 1:19:59Speaker 1: talk station. Suzette Lozacamp would love to hear from you.
- 1:20:01Speaker 1: And you want to call Suzette Lozacamp for anything related
- 1:20:04Speaker 1: to mortgages. Buying a home, there's a real reason to
- 1:20:07Speaker 1: need a mortgage, and she'll find one for you. Great
- 1:20:09Speaker 1: rates at a low cost, no junk fees or application fees.
- 1:20:12Speaker 1: I know rates are up, but she can find out
- 1:20:14Speaker 1: great deals for you. And remember, there's more than one
- 1:20:16Speaker 1: way to skin a cat. That will be my experience
- 1:20:19Speaker 1: many years ago when interest rates were 9% or 10%.
- 1:20:21Speaker 1: We were able to score 8 and an eighth by
- 1:20:24Speaker 1: doing a balloon mortgage. So you buy yourself some time,
- 1:20:27Speaker 1: you get a lower interest rate, and then a 723 balloon,
- 1:20:30Speaker 1: you get seven years, and then you have to refinance
- 1:20:32Speaker 1: it seven years. Well, we played the gamble game, and ultimately,
- 1:20:34Speaker 1: we ended up moving before the thing ballooned. But The
- 1:20:38Speaker 1: interest rates ultimately went down over that period of time.
- 1:20:40Speaker 1: So if we had to refinance at that moment in time,
- 1:20:42Speaker 1: that would have been fine. That's an option. It may
- 1:20:45Speaker 1: not be for you, but let Suzette talk about all
- 1:20:47Speaker 1: of the available options with you. And she will. You

- 1:21:54Speaker 9: Happy Tuesday.
- 1:22:03Speaker 1: We've got a little time here before we get to
- 1:22:05Speaker 1: Tom's house. You can feel free to give me a call.
- 1:22:11Speaker 1: Russ has been trying to update the blog page. Didn't
- 1:22:15Speaker 1: have any success doing that. Yet one more technical difficulty
- 1:22:18Speaker 1: we're struggling with here. Hang in there, Russ Jackson. This
- 1:22:22Speaker 1: is your last day you have to do this. Oh,
- 1:22:28Speaker 1: you're covering for Joe next Monday. I forgot. Yeah, he
- 1:22:30Speaker 1: is taking next Monday off. Anyhow, that's all right. I
- 1:22:34Speaker 1: appreciate your being there, but technical difficulties, problems here today. Anyway,
- 1:22:38Speaker 1: we were talking early in the program. Oh, and by
- 1:22:40Speaker 1: the way, Rebecca, no, Listener Lunch is at Jim and
- 1:22:43Speaker 1: Jack's tomorrow. We were talking about Turf Club earlier in
- 1:22:45Speaker 1: the program because the caller had attended the Turf Club,
- 1:22:49Speaker 1: and so I had to ask him if he'd been
- 1:22:51Speaker 1: there before and wax poetic a little bit about the
- 1:22:54Speaker 1: history of Turf Club. So that was last month. We
- 1:22:56Speaker 1: will be at Jim and Jack's on the river tomorrow
- 1:22:59Speaker 1: for the last one before the election. Oh, and again,
- 1:23:02Speaker 1: You can start voting today. Please do. We talked about
- 1:23:05Speaker 1: immigration earlier as one of the more nefarious elements eroding
- 1:23:09Speaker 1: our various long-established cultural connections with our country. You can
- 1:23:18Speaker 1: see the riots in France, and I think it sprung
- 1:23:19Speaker 1: from that. Kids in the street, they'll say they're rioting
- 1:23:22Speaker 1: over the schools, when in fact we know this is
- 1:23:24Speaker 1: far more than that. This is just one of the
- 1:23:26Speaker 1: multitude of riots and anger and divisions that have been
- 1:23:29Speaker 1: fomented by evil and nefarious actors all around the globe
- 1:23:32Speaker 1: you can blame source you can blame the chinese communist
- 1:23:35Speaker 1: party we're all connected to the internet and everyone who's
- 1:23:38Speaker 1: got a vested interest in bringing us or any other
- 1:23:40Speaker 1: culture down is busily at work every single day making
- 1:23:44Speaker 1: inroads at people you know that are disenfranchised or angry
- 1:23:47Speaker 1: about something oh my god i was born a girl
- 1:23:50Speaker 1: and i'm really a guy and that person's pissed off
- 1:23:52Speaker 1: so you get that group together along with the people
- 1:23:54Speaker 1: who are pissed off about something else and the Trump
- 1:23:57Speaker 1: derangement syndrome people over there and the racist over there.
- 1:24:00Speaker 1: Anybody you can come up with. Foment division. Undermine what
- 1:24:06Speaker 1: it is to be American. And I always default to
- 1:24:09Speaker 1: my perception, and you may have a different one. Freedom
- 1:24:11Speaker 1: is what we stand for. And if you don't get that,
- 1:24:15Speaker 1: then you don't get how unique we are in the world.
- 1:24:20Speaker 1: But one of the problems is we have an influx
- 1:24:23Speaker 1: over the past, obviously, the Biden administration, but tens of
- 1:24:25Speaker 1: millions of people almost instantly flooding into communities. And you
- 1:24:28Speaker 1: can look around. I mean, I don't have anything against
- 1:24:31Speaker 1: Muslim people generally. And I do have a problem with
- 1:24:35Speaker 1: fundamentalist Muslims. But where in the United States 10, 20
- 1:24:39Speaker 1: years ago were there enclaves of 100% Muslim communities? So
- 1:24:45Speaker 1: this is a more recent development, but it's not recent
- 1:24:47Speaker 1: in Europe. It's been happening for years and years and
- 1:24:50Speaker 1: years with their experiment in open borders. It's as if
- 1:24:53Speaker 1: the entire Middle East population just landed in Europe at
- 1:24:57Speaker 1: some point. Now they're dealing with the realities of that.
- 1:25:00Speaker 1: The degradation of culture. What does it mean to be
- 1:25:02Speaker 1: a French person anymore? Used to be steeped in culture
- 1:25:05Speaker 1: and history and liberty, equality, fraternity. I don't know what
- 1:25:08Speaker 1: it is now.
- 1:25:10Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 1:25:11Speaker 1: Goal accomplished. But if you think of this as an
- 1:25:18Speaker 1: intentional thing in the name of globalism or, well, maybe
- 1:25:22Speaker 1: just trying to kneecap the United States of America, whose
- 1:25:25Speaker 1: recipe for success has obviously worked out better than anywhere
- 1:25:29Speaker 1: else in the world, that freedom concept has translated into
- 1:25:33Speaker 1: opportunity for so many. I can't do what I want here.
- 1:25:37Speaker 1: I'm going there to get it accomplished, whatever it happens
- 1:25:40Speaker 1: to be. That's how we drew the best and brightest.
- 1:25:44Speaker 1: No guarantees. When you talk about Ellis Island, a wax
- 1:25:47Speaker 1: poetic about give me your tired and your poor and
- 1:25:50Speaker 1: all that. Yeah, well, that was a time before we
- 1:25:51Speaker 1: had a social welfare safety net. The entire world can't
- 1:25:54Speaker 1: hook itself up to that. But if you're able to
- 1:25:56Speaker 1: get out of your country and show up here and
- 1:25:58Speaker 1: you want to work hard, nothing was standing in the way.
- 1:26:01Speaker 1: That's how we ended up becoming so successful. The best
- 1:26:04Speaker 1: and the brightest from around the globe came here and, well,
- 1:26:07Speaker 1: started working. Now, when I look at what Donald Trump
- 1:26:13Speaker 1: has done, much to the chagrin of the left, this
- 1:26:15Speaker 1: is one of the reasons they've so wigged out. Donald
- 1:26:17Speaker 1: Trump was a massive monkey wrench thrown into the left's
- 1:26:21Speaker 1: long-term plans. First time he got elected, they could not
- 1:26:24Speaker 1: believe what happened. Hillary Clinton was supposed to be elected.
- 1:26:27Speaker 1: It was a given. He was a disrupting force to
- 1:26:33Speaker 1: their global goals, I am convinced. Then we see the
- 1:26:37Speaker 1: Inspector General, Immigration and Customs Enforcement, under President Joe Biden and,
- 1:26:44Speaker 1: of course, former Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas.
- 1:26:49Speaker 1: It's determined by the Inspector General report that they allowed
- 1:26:52Speaker 1: millions of illegal aliens who overstayed their visas to stay
- 1:26:55Speaker 1: in the country. From 21 to 24, ICE received more
- 1:26:56Speaker 1: than 3.1 million leads on visa overstays.
- 1:26:58Speaker 6: 3.1 million.
- 1:27:07Speaker 1: About 104,000 of them have been classified as potential national
- 1:27:11Speaker 1: security or public safety threats. All right, so there's your
- 1:27:15Speaker 1: legitimate concern right there. Okay, let's ignore the 3.1 million overstaged.
- 1:27:18Speaker 1: Let's focus, shall we, on 104,000 classified as potential national
- 1:27:23Speaker 1: security or public safety threats? No, they didn't. According to
- 1:27:28Speaker 1: the Inspector General Report, fewer than 500 of the national
- 1:27:30Speaker 1: security public safety threat leads were investigated. Of 104,000... fewer
- 1:27:36Speaker 1: than 500. They had no interest in the Biden administration
- 1:27:39Speaker 1: to deport anyone, even criminal types. Welcome to the disruptive
- 1:27:43Speaker 1: force of Donald Trump 2.0. Borders immediately shut. Plans disrupted.
- 1:27:50Speaker 1: No more, well, culturally dividing people, humanity, flood the humanity
- 1:27:54Speaker 1: flowing into our country.
- 1:27:59Speaker 5: And?
- 1:28:00Speaker 1: Just the other day, the United States Supreme Court reversed
- 1:28:03Speaker 1: the lower court restrictions and approved the Trump administration's plan
- 1:28:06Speaker 1: to end temporary protected status for hundreds of thousands of
- 1:28:11Speaker 1: Venezuelan migrants. Temporary means temporary. Supreme Court vacated the Ninth
- 1:28:17Speaker 1: Circuit ruling that said you can't kick them out. Guess what?
- 1:28:20Speaker 1: There's 300,000 more people eligible to be deported from our
- 1:28:23Speaker 1: country and deported. We're just going to rely on the law.
- 1:28:26Speaker 1: That's the Supreme Court. We said it was temporary. How
- 1:28:29Speaker 1: else do you determine what the word temporary means? You
- 1:28:31Speaker 1: look at the definition of it. Temporary. That is a
- 1:28:36Speaker 1: disruptive force to what the far left is doing. wants
- 1:28:42Speaker 1: maybe we can keep and cling to the reality that
- 1:28:44Speaker 1: this is the unique country that it is and once
- 1:28:47Speaker 1: again unify perhaps someday unify at least under the concept
- 1:28:53Speaker 1: of freedom enjoy it while you got it 728 thomas
- 1:28:57Speaker 1: i was asking we the people convention gonna be on
- 1:28:59Speaker 1: next First, I want to mention great electricians, and that's

- 1:29:19Speaker 1: a well-oiled machine of qualified electricians doing the projects in
- 1:29:22Speaker 1: your house, whether it's a simple outlet install, wiring up
- 1:29:25Speaker 1: your surround sound, your media room, or maybe doing some
- 1:29:27Speaker 1: can lights, which I think they installed like 20 of
- 1:29:30Speaker 1: them in our house. Great work, and what a terrific
- 1:29:33Speaker 1: development that was for our home. But they also wired
- 1:29:35Speaker 1: up our whole house generator. You get great work from Cullen.

- 1:30:27Speaker 1: week at this time. Tom Zalastowski joins the program. WeThePeopleConvention.org
- 1:30:34Speaker 1: is where you find Tom's website. I recommend checking it
- 1:30:35Speaker 1: out each and every week. It is a podcast. Got
- 1:30:37Speaker 1: some great posts over there. Welcome back, Tom Z. It's
- 1:30:39Speaker 1: a pleasure to have you on the show. Oh, good
- 1:30:42Speaker 1: to be back with you, Brian. And it's here.
- 1:30:45Speaker 13: It's finally here, right? It's time to vote. And, boy,
- 1:30:49Speaker 13: it's going to be an interesting month for sure.
- 1:30:52Speaker 1: No question about it. And it's going to be a
- 1:30:54Speaker 1: long time before we get the results. Well, anyway, have
- 1:30:58Speaker 1: you got any recent polling information that we can count on, Tom?
- 1:31:03Speaker 13: Yeah, I don't think there is any such thing. You know,
- 1:31:05Speaker 13: that's my take on it. I mean, the thing that
- 1:31:07Speaker 13: makes the most sense to me was I saw a
- 1:31:10Speaker 13: CNN report where the guy was saying, you know, here's
- 1:31:14Speaker 13: one thing that's true, that in, you know, 16, 20,
- 1:31:18Speaker 13: and 24, the polls in places like Ohio and Pennsylvania
- 1:31:22Speaker 13: and Michigan underestimated the Republican vote. by 6%, 8%, or 10%.
- 1:31:27Speaker 13: And I think that's legitimate. They're over-polling Democrats. I don't
- 1:31:33Speaker 13: think the people on our side, conservatives, even want to
- 1:31:37Speaker 13: participate in a poll. So the best poll is, what
- 1:31:41Speaker 13: are you hearing from the people around you? What are
- 1:31:43Speaker 13: you hearing when you're talking to your friends, neighbors, the
- 1:31:46Speaker 13: people at work, the people at church? That's your best poll.
- 1:31:49Speaker 13: And we've got to just keep working to give people
- 1:31:53Speaker 13: the binary choice. Brian, it's a binary choice. It's real simple.
- 1:31:58Speaker 13: Do you want to continue with the progress we've made? Like, hey,
- 1:32:02Speaker 13: let's keep the border closed. Do you want to continue with,
- 1:32:05Speaker 13: you know, having energy? Do you want to continue with,
- 1:32:07Speaker 13: you know, getting rid of DEI and stopping these trans surgeries?
- 1:32:12Speaker 2: Or do you want to go back?
- 1:32:13Speaker 13: Do you want to go back to where we were
- 1:32:15Speaker 13: four years ago, where the government is ruling over you? And,
- 1:32:19Speaker 13: you know, basically the democratic socialists do what they're doing
- 1:32:24Speaker 13: in France to us here.
- 1:32:26Speaker 2: That's the choice. It's not between Republicans and Democrats.
- 1:32:29Speaker 13: And, you know, the email I put out yesterday statewide
- 1:32:33Speaker 13: was really different than the ones I put out before.
- 1:32:36Speaker 13: I said in the past 17 years, I sent these
- 1:32:38Speaker 13: emails out before every election, encouraging you to vote for
- 1:32:41Speaker 13: the candidates we endorse. I would send you their pictures,
- 1:32:45Speaker 13: links to their websites, and explain why you should vote
- 1:32:47Speaker 13: for them. But I'm not doing that this year. This
- 1:32:50Speaker 13: year is different. This year, you and I are voting
- 1:32:53Speaker 13: in our own personal best interest, you and I are
- 1:32:55Speaker 13: voting to protect our nation from a very real and
- 1:32:59Speaker 13: serious communist Islamist threat within our borders.
- 1:33:02Speaker 2: And that's what the vote is about.
- 1:33:05Speaker 13: And we're going to try to make that clear to
- 1:33:06Speaker 13: everybody through our messaging.
- 1:33:08Speaker 1: And you think it will be clear to everybody just
- 1:33:10Speaker 1: as a matter of course, people looking around them and
- 1:33:13Speaker 1: just observing what's happened to our country over just a
- 1:33:15Speaker 1: very short window of time, Tom. I I mean, I
- 1:33:18Speaker 1: can't believe that we're living in the United States of
- 1:33:21Speaker 1: America where a socialist and admitted, I mean, almost Marxist
- 1:33:25Speaker 1: can be elected. And yet here we have multiple people
- 1:33:28Speaker 1: of that political mindset being elected to high office. I
- 1:33:34Speaker 1: just worry, perhaps, Tom, that maybe a little too late
- 1:33:36Speaker 1: here in America.
- 1:33:38Speaker 2: Well, that's possible. Right, Brian? I mean, you know, we
- 1:33:42Speaker 2: don't have any.
- 1:33:44Speaker 13: You know, if you read history, right, what's that thing about,
- 1:33:47Speaker 13: you know, democracies last 250 years? And that's pretty much
- 1:33:51Speaker 13: throughout history. So are we the exception to that or
- 1:33:54Speaker 13: are we going to be? subject to that same rule.
- 1:33:58Speaker 13: And yeah, we've destroyed ourselves. The problem with being wealthy
- 1:34:02Speaker 13: is you get lazy and you don't remember how you
- 1:34:05Speaker 13: earned that wealth and you don't understand what you have
- 1:34:08Speaker 13: to do to protect it. And we're paying the price
- 1:34:11Speaker 13: for that.
- 1:34:12Speaker 2: But is it too late? I don't think it's too late.
- 1:34:15Speaker 2: I mean, well, I know it's not too late because.
- 1:34:18Speaker 13: I know that if we stand up and we vote
- 1:34:21Speaker 13: this November and we keep President Trump's agenda on track,
- 1:34:26Speaker 13: We're going to destroy the left. We're going to stop
- 1:34:28Speaker 13: what happened in France. And that's what I'm urging people
- 1:34:31Speaker 13: to do. It's real simple. You don't have to go
- 1:34:34Speaker 13: take a gun and fight like our grandfathers and fathers did,
- 1:34:37Speaker 13: or fight like they had to in Iraq and Afghanistan.
- 1:34:41Speaker 13: You just have to show up and vote. And if
- 1:34:43Speaker 13: you do that, you'll do more to stop communism and
- 1:34:45Speaker 13: socialism and Islamism in this world than anything you could
- 1:34:50Speaker 13: ever have.
- 1:34:50Speaker 2: Done in history. Just show up and vote.
- 1:34:53Speaker 13: That's how you defeat communism. And, you know, I think
- 1:34:56Speaker 13: our people are smart enough to figure that out.
- 1:34:58Speaker 1: I hope so. And I hate to have to express
- 1:34:59Speaker 1: it in such dreary existential terms, but I really think
- 1:35:03Speaker 1: that's how we have to talk about it to make
- 1:35:05Speaker 1: sure people are fully aware of how close we are
- 1:35:08Speaker 1: to the precipice and falling into it. We'll continue. WeThePeopleConvention.org.
- 1:35:13Speaker 1: Check out Tom's Liberty Requires Citizens Who Are Informed and
- 1:35:17Speaker 1: Engaged podcast. Maybe a word or two on that when
- 1:35:19Speaker 1: we get back. Tom Z, don't go away. It's 736,
- 1:35:23Speaker 1: and it's time for me to mention the fantastic product

- 1:37:09Speaker 10: the talk station.
- 1:37:10Speaker 1: 741, 55KRC, the talk station. Brian Thomas with the Tom
- 1:37:16Speaker 1: Zawistowski League of People Convention. Yeah, just going through all
- 1:37:20Speaker 1: the nefarious actions the globalists, socialists are using to divide us,
- 1:37:26Speaker 1: Tom Z. And I saw your podcast about liberty requires
- 1:37:29Speaker 1: citizens to reform and engage. And I think one of
- 1:37:31Speaker 1: the more nefarious underlying elements of this is our children
- 1:37:34Speaker 1: in our public schools anyway are either not taught civics,
- 1:37:39Speaker 1: the reason our founding fathers formed the country, fought the
- 1:37:43Speaker 1: Revolutionary War, the purpose and principles behind the Constitution. There's
- 1:37:48Speaker 1: no understanding of that, and so there's no connection with
- 1:37:51Speaker 1: it from a cultural standpoint. You've got an influx of
- 1:37:53Speaker 1: mass quantities of migrants who aren't connected with our culture,
- 1:37:56Speaker 1: and nor are they required to assimilate into this American culture.
- 1:38:01Speaker 1: And then you have the divisions on other cultural issues
- 1:38:05Speaker 1: like sexuality of human beings, the erosion of religion. It's just, Tom,
- 1:38:11Speaker 1: everywhere you turn, There's some eroding force that if people
- 1:38:16Speaker 1: were smarter and paid closer attention or, for example, studied
- 1:38:20Speaker 1: history and realized that even around us right now, socialist
- 1:38:24Speaker 1: countries are falling like dominoes in South America.
- 1:38:27Speaker 21: Why?
- 1:38:27Speaker 1: Because people know and understand history. lived through it that
- 1:38:31Speaker 1: it sucks you know what side of people did the
- 1:38:33Speaker 1: humanity flow when the berlin wall fell down or east
- 1:38:36Speaker 1: when the berlin wall was up people wanted to leave
- 1:38:39Speaker 1: east berlin that's why they put the wall up It's just,
- 1:38:43Speaker 1: how is it that it can have inroads in people
- 1:38:46Speaker 1: who have a profoundly long and detailed history of failure? Tom,
- 1:38:50Speaker 1: I'm frustrated.
- 1:38:52Speaker 2: I know, and I hear the frustration.
- 1:38:54Speaker 13: And so I want to give you some hope and
- 1:38:57Speaker 13: just let people feel a little better. So you made
- 1:39:01Speaker 13: a very important connection. What's going on in South America?
- 1:39:05Speaker 13: The bottom line is, is that South America was almost
- 1:39:09Speaker 13: totally communist in was being taken over by the Chinese
- 1:39:14Speaker 13: under Obama, under Biden.
- 1:39:17Speaker 2: Why? Because we were being ripped off.
- 1:39:21Speaker 13: They were taking our tax dollars to fund USAID, which
- 1:39:27Speaker 13: instead of promoting American values and democracy, was promoting communism.
- 1:39:34Speaker 13: And so what's happened? Donald Trump Cuts off USAID, puts
- 1:39:39Speaker 13: them out of business. Nearly every country in America has
- 1:39:44Speaker 13: gotten their freedom back, has elected a democratic government. And
- 1:39:48Speaker 13: the big one, the shocking one, was Brazil just yesterday.
- 1:39:52Speaker 2: Now, how are those two things connected? Well, guess what?
- 1:39:56Speaker 13: They were doing the same thing to your children and
- 1:39:59Speaker 13: to our children. Our government was paying this teachers' union
- 1:40:05Speaker 13: to indoctrinate our children into communism.
- 1:40:09Speaker 1: A teachers' union that adopted a platform that said America sucks, right?
- 1:40:15Speaker 1: Boiling it down to its finest term or finest points.
- 1:40:18Speaker 1: America sucks. 1619 Project whatever. We're inherently racist. We were
- 1:40:22Speaker 1: born of original sin. We are irredeemable in every way, shape,
- 1:40:25Speaker 1: and form, not focusing all the great and good things
- 1:40:28Speaker 1: And the fact that we prop up so many governments
- 1:40:30Speaker 1: around the world in the name of freedom, or at
- 1:40:32Speaker 1: least we used to, the lifeline to so many poor
- 1:40:35Speaker 1: and starving nations, that's us and our wealth. Without our wealth,
- 1:40:38Speaker 1: we wouldn't be doing that, but we are indeed a
- 1:40:40Speaker 1: great nation in spite of our warts. But that is
- 1:40:43Speaker 1: not a narrative that's taught in school. We're just bad. Well,
- 1:40:50Speaker 1: and so what's Donald Trump doing?
- 1:40:53Speaker 13: This is what people don't understand, that he's not just
- 1:40:56Speaker 13: a politician anymore. If you watch our podcast every week,
- 1:41:02Speaker 13: there are five or six things that Donald Trump is
- 1:41:05Speaker 13: doing every week to take apart that apparatus that destroyed
- 1:41:10Speaker 13: our country. Just this past week, they finally put Title
- 1:41:15Speaker 13: IX back to its original wording after Obama gutted it.
- 1:41:19Speaker 1: Protecting women. The genesis of Title IX was to help
- 1:41:23Speaker 1: women out. And we ended up the left ends up
- 1:41:26Speaker 1: putting men in there, which undermines the point of title nine.
- 1:41:29Speaker 1: They're supposed to be separate, basically separate, but equal, but
- 1:41:32Speaker 1: in a good way.
- 1:41:34Speaker 2: And Trump is fixing it.
- 1:41:37Speaker 13: This is a stupid example, but just a couple weeks ago,
- 1:41:40Speaker 13: Trump issued an order to get rid of the rain tax.
- 1:41:44Speaker 2: What's the rain tax?
- 1:41:46Speaker 13: Oh, when I was living in the People's Republic of Kent, Ohio,
- 1:41:49Speaker 13: a few years ago, they said.
- 1:41:51Speaker 2: Oh, your driveway, when it rains.
- 1:41:55Speaker 13: The water flows off into the sewers.
- 1:41:57Speaker 2: So now we're going to tax you. It's a rain tax.
- 1:42:00Speaker 13: On your driveway, or if you're a small business on
- 1:42:03Speaker 13: your parking lot, that was totally bogus. There was no
- 1:42:08Speaker 13: basis for that. And Donald Trump just canceled it. This
- 1:42:12Speaker 13: is what I'm saying. It's not like he's just doing
- 1:42:15Speaker 13: the big things. He's doing the smallest things.
- 1:42:18Speaker 2: You can imagine. That's what we needed.
- 1:42:21Speaker 13: That's how we restore our constitution.
- 1:42:24Speaker 2: And that's why you got to vote.
- 1:42:26Speaker 13: For every Republican on the ballot and against Every single Democrat.
- 1:42:32Speaker 2: I don't care. City council, mayor, dog catcher, sheriff. I
- 1:42:37Speaker 2: don't care. You must vote against every Democrat.
- 1:42:41Speaker 5: Why?
- 1:42:41Speaker 13: Because they're going to be coerced. The Democrat socialists are
- 1:42:46Speaker 13: saying it. You can see them say it. Oh, if
- 1:42:49Speaker 13: Sherrod Brown wins, you think Sherrod Brown's going to vote
- 1:42:52Speaker 13: the way he thinks he should vote?
- 1:42:53Speaker 1: He doesn't have an independent thought, Tom.
- 1:42:55Speaker 6: Nope.
- 1:42:59Speaker 13: And so understand, so if you're a Democrat listening to this,
- 1:43:02Speaker 13: if you're listening to this right.
- 1:43:03Speaker 2: Now, you're a Democrat, here's your problem.
- 1:43:05Speaker 13: You can't vote for any Democrat because you don't know
- 1:43:08Speaker 13: what you're getting. They may be the most moderate, quote-unquote, Democrat,
- 1:43:12Speaker 13: you know, the old Hubert Humphrey Democrat. You've known this
- 1:43:15Speaker 13: woman for 25 years, and she's a wonderful person, but
- 1:43:19Speaker 13: you don't understand.
- 1:43:20Speaker 2: Just like in Virginia.
- 1:43:21Speaker 13: When they elected Spanberg, who said she's a moderate, and
- 1:43:24Speaker 13: the day she took office, she turned into a commie.
- 1:43:27Speaker 2: This is what's going to happen to.
- 1:43:29Speaker 13: Every Democrat because communism is government at the point of
- 1:43:34Speaker 13: a gun.
- 1:43:35Speaker 2: You can't elect any Democrat. And that's the only way
- 1:43:40Speaker 2: we can defeat this threat within our country.
- 1:43:43Speaker 13: And if we do this, Donald Trump is going to
- 1:43:45Speaker 13: destroy democracy.
- 1:43:47Speaker 2: Them.
- 1:43:47Speaker 13: They will never, I keep saying this, this is the
- 1:43:50Speaker 13: year we win the war. In 30 days from now, Brian,
- 1:43:54Speaker 13: we win the war against the left in the United States.
- 1:43:57Speaker 13: The Democratic Party will cease to exist this November 3rd
- 1:44:02Speaker 13: if you show up and vote.
- 1:44:04Speaker 1: That is a bold, bold statement, Tom.
- 1:44:09Speaker 20: Z.
- 1:44:09Speaker 1: I can back it up. I can prove it. I'll
- 1:44:12Speaker 1: let you do some concluding thoughts. We'll have a couple
- 1:44:14Speaker 1: minutes when we come back at most, but Gather your

- 1:44:43Speaker 1: different choices. So Eric and Lauren chose the one they want.
- 1:44:46Speaker 1: The concrete that we paid to cover was awful. And
- 1:44:50Speaker 1: it prominently displayed area right off the back of their home.
- 1:44:53Speaker 1: You know, it's where they gather. It's close to where
- 1:44:56Speaker 1: the grill is. They got their picnic table out there
- 1:44:58Speaker 1: on it. And, you know, it just looked terrible. Flaking
- 1:45:00Speaker 1: old kind of a rusty red color of regular paint
- 1:45:03Speaker 1: that had been put on it. And, of course, this
- 1:45:05Speaker 1: concrete had a big crack down the center. And when
- 1:45:07Speaker 1: I had Galaxy Concrete out, I was asking, can you
- 1:45:09Speaker 1: fix that crack?
- 1:45:10Speaker 2: Oh, absolutely. Absolutely.
- 1:45:11Speaker 1: It was like a port, a brand-new surface, but they didn't.

- 1:46:08Speaker 1: Brian Thomas with Tom Zalastowski from WeThePeopleConvention.org. Tom, final thoughts
- 1:46:12Speaker 1: and conclusions as we part company today. I'll only do
- 1:46:14Speaker 1: this again next Tuesday with further encouragement for people to
- 1:46:16Speaker 1: get out and vote. It's day one for voting, so
- 1:46:19Speaker 1: do it, Tom.
- 1:46:20Speaker 13: Yeah, and I guess I want to go back to
- 1:46:23Speaker 13: the beginning and say, You're voting in your own personal interest.
- 1:46:26Speaker 13: You're voting to defend our country from the real threat
- 1:46:29Speaker 13: that is facing us. Communism, Islamism, it's right there. You're
- 1:46:33Speaker 13: pointing it out all morning long. And so do you
- 1:46:36Speaker 13: want to see President Trump impeached for the next two years?
- 1:46:39Speaker 13: Do you want to see everything we've done stopped?
- 1:46:41Speaker 2: Well, then stay home. Don't vote or vote for a Democrat.
- 1:46:44Speaker 13: If you want to go forward, if you want us
- 1:46:46Speaker 13: to continue to gut their ability to cheat in elections,
- 1:46:50Speaker 13: if you want us to continue to improve our economy
- 1:46:53Speaker 13: and get the government out of your life, well, then
- 1:46:56Speaker 13: show up and vote.
- 1:46:57Speaker 2: And so, you know, I guarantee you.
- 1:47:00Speaker 13: This is, you know, everybody says it's the most important
- 1:47:02Speaker 13: election in your lifetime.
- 1:47:04Speaker 16: Right.
- 1:47:04Speaker 2: Or most important. And this is. But that's not going
- 1:47:08Speaker 2: to be the case going forward. Right.
- 1:47:10Speaker 13: When you invaded Normandy, that was the most important battle
- 1:47:13Speaker 13: in the war. And then if you after that, it
- 1:47:15Speaker 13: was a battle of the bulge. And after that, it was,
- 1:47:17Speaker 13: you know, gets overthrowing Berlin. And then it was defeating
- 1:47:20Speaker 13: the Imperial Japanese.
- 1:47:21Speaker 2: But at some point you win the war. This is
- 1:47:25Speaker 2: the year we win the war.
- 1:47:27Speaker 13: You vote this year against every Democrat, we win the war,
- 1:47:34Speaker 13: and they will never be back in power in.
- 1:47:36Speaker 2: This country again.
- 1:47:38Speaker 1: You heard it from Tom Zawistowski, and I'm with him.
- 1:47:42Speaker 1: This is the opportunity of a lifetime. Please, dear God,
- 1:47:45Speaker 1: go out and vote. Tom Z, God bless you, sir.
- 1:47:48Speaker 1: We'll talk next week. Have a wonderful week between now
- 1:47:49Speaker 1: and then. And again, wethepeopleconvention.org is where you'll find Tom. Thanks, brother.
- 1:47:54Speaker 1: I appreciate your passion, man.
- 1:47:57Speaker 2: You have a great week, all right? Let's be happy warriors.
- 1:48:00Speaker 1: Amen, brother. 755, 55 KRC Talk Station. Speaking of what's
- 1:48:04Speaker 1: going on in South America, Francis Martel, the international expert
- 1:48:09Speaker 1: over at Breitbart News, going to do the inside scoop
- 1:48:11Speaker 1: after the top of the hour news. Great development, plus
- 1:48:13Speaker 1: the Daniel Davis deep dive. Not so much fun and
- 1:48:16Speaker 1: games going on with the Iranians, but we'll get the
- 1:48:18Speaker 1: deep dive from Daniel at 8.30, and we'll talk Second
- 1:48:21Speaker 1: Amendment with Jeff from 22.3 Firearms at 8.50. We got
- 1:48:26Speaker 1: some new developments in terms of suppressors, short-barreled rifles, more
- 1:48:30Speaker 1: lawsuits being resolved in the Second Amendment's favor. It's good stuff.
- 1:48:34Speaker 1: Don't go away. Every four years, the presidency. Every two years, everything. Yeah,
- 1:48:42Speaker 1: this is not good.
- 1:48:43Speaker 17: The midterms on 55KRC.
- 1:48:46Speaker 1: This report is sponsored.
- 1:48:48Speaker 9: Or you go to the doctor and the doctor says
- 1:48:50Speaker 9: you need to really exercise.
- 1:48:51Speaker 1: How long before that is put on your medical record?
- 1:48:54Speaker 1: Glenn Beck.
- 1:48:55Speaker 17: Weekdays at 9 on 55KRC, the talk station.
- 1:48:59Speaker 1: 8.05 at 55KRCD Talk Station. Brian Thomas here welcoming you
- 1:49:07Speaker 1: back to the 55KRCD Morning Show. International expert Francis Martel
- 1:49:12Speaker 1: doing the Breitbart Insights Group. As I always start, Breitbart, B-R-E-I-T-B-A-R-T.com.
- 1:49:17Speaker 1: Bookmark it. You'll be glad you did. You can read
- 1:49:18Speaker 1: what Francis Martel writes about. Most notably, some great news
- 1:49:23Speaker 1: out of Brazil. Welcome back, Francis. Great to have you
- 1:49:26Speaker 1: on the program again.
- 1:49:28Speaker 20: Thanks so much for having me back.
- 1:49:29Speaker 1: What an amazing thing going on in South America. As
- 1:49:31Speaker 1: this crazy country of ours goes full on, it seems,
- 1:49:35Speaker 1: although we can save us from ourselves here at the
- 1:49:37Speaker 1: beginning of November, full-on socialists come communists. The rest of
- 1:49:42Speaker 1: the world seems to have gotten the memo. It sucks
- 1:49:44Speaker 1: to live under socialism and communism. We need to go
- 1:49:46Speaker 1: a different direction. And Brazil, I guess, is the next one.
- 1:49:49Speaker 1: It looks like it's going to go in that direction
- 1:49:50Speaker 1: with the election the other day. It hasn't been definitively concluded,
- 1:49:53Speaker 1: but Flavio Bolasnaro won by, what, 47 to 42 or
- 1:50:00Speaker 1: something like that, Frances?
- 1:50:03Speaker 19: Yes, much bigger than anticipated.
- 1:50:05Speaker 16: I know that doesn't sound very big, but every poll
- 1:50:08Speaker 16: before the election was a statistical tie with.
- 1:50:11Speaker 19: Lula, the incumbent president, in the lead.
- 1:50:13Speaker 16: And the incumbent president is a hardcore Marxist, former labor leader,
- 1:50:18Speaker 16: a guy very much admired by the international Marxist coalition leaders.
- 1:50:23Speaker 16: President Obama once called him the most popular politician on earth.
- 1:50:27Speaker 16: So this is a real heavyweight in the international left,
- 1:50:30Speaker 16: and he was expected to take a slight lead, and
- 1:50:32Speaker 16: he actually lost by a couple percentage points, which was unexpected.
- 1:50:35Speaker 1: Which takes him into a runoff. Now, I get the
- 1:50:38Speaker 1: impression there were other candidates beyond these two, correct?
- 1:50:42Speaker 20: Yes, there were 13.
- 1:50:43Speaker 1: 13. So all the other people who voted for those
- 1:50:46Speaker 1: other candidates now are going to have to choose between
- 1:50:48Speaker 1: the two, and given the the outsized win on the,
- 1:50:51Speaker 1: at least what we call the conservative side from Harper's
- 1:50:53Speaker 1: political perspective, by all accounts, he is forecasted to win.
- 1:51:00Speaker 19: Yes, there were only.
- 1:51:01Speaker 20: About three other candidates that made it on the board at.
- 1:51:03Speaker 19: All that made more than 1% support.
- 1:51:07Speaker 16: And those were center to right-leaning candidates. The left was very,
- 1:51:11Speaker 16: very unified in this election. There were no other candidates
- 1:51:14Speaker 16: taking away votes from Lula, which means if you take
- 1:51:17Speaker 16: away the other candidates, The likelihood is that those voters
- 1:51:20Speaker 16: are going to go for Bolsonaro.
- 1:51:21Speaker 19: They're not going to go for Lula.
- 1:51:23Speaker 1: Well, there's other indications, too, because I understand that the
- 1:51:26Speaker 1: conservatives won a lot of victories in the Senate seats
- 1:51:30Speaker 1: as well. So kind of like ours, you have, you know,
- 1:51:32Speaker 1: the president and then you've got the other elected officials below.
- 1:51:35Speaker 1: But described as the best electoral performance in 40 years,
- 1:51:38Speaker 1: according to the Breitbart reporting I'm looking at, Francis.
- 1:51:42Speaker 16: Yes, this was a historic win for the right in
- 1:51:45Speaker 16: the Brazilian Congress. And by the way, Brazil is one
- 1:51:47Speaker 16: of my favorite countries to cover politically because their system
- 1:51:51Speaker 16: is so similar to ours. They have a federal government
- 1:51:54Speaker 16: with separation of.
- 1:51:55Speaker 19: Powers between the governors and the president.
- 1:51:58Speaker 20: They have states.
- 1:51:59Speaker 16: Separated, same as us, and then their Congress is a
- 1:52:02Speaker 16: lower House and a Senate, same as us.
- 1:52:04Speaker 19: So it's very easy to follow.
- 1:52:07Speaker 16: And the right wing, and particularly the Liberal Party, which
- 1:52:10Speaker 16: is actually the right wing party in Brazil, they doubled,
- 1:52:14Speaker 16: almost doubled the number of seats in the Senate. They
- 1:52:16Speaker 16: went from 15 seats to 28. And that's not even
- 1:52:19Speaker 16: counting other.
- 1:52:20Speaker 19: Right wing parties who also grooved. in this election.
- 1:52:23Speaker 16: So it was just a massive win for the right
- 1:52:25Speaker 16: in the legislature. And that's going to be a, if
- 1:52:28Speaker 16: Lula does win, that's going to be a huge problem
- 1:52:30Speaker 16: for him. And it's also going to be a huge
- 1:52:31Speaker 16: problem for the Supreme court, which is completely dominated by
- 1:52:35Speaker 16: the left and has been extremely dictatorial, um, in the past,
- 1:52:39Speaker 16: I'd say eight years in politics.
- 1:52:43Speaker 1: Many parallels can be drawn. Can't they Francis between us
- 1:52:46Speaker 1: and Well, since they have been under this communist guy's
- 1:52:53Speaker 1: rule for so long, elected he was, what has changed
- 1:52:56Speaker 1: the tide? I have been told that part of it
- 1:52:58Speaker 1: may be the fact that deficit spending has caused inflation
- 1:53:02Speaker 1: to jump through the roof there. And, gee, couldn't we
- 1:53:04Speaker 1: learn a lesson from that here as well?
- 1:53:07Speaker 16: Yes, it's a little bit of everything. It's the fact
- 1:53:09Speaker 16: that Lula is 80 years old. He's about to turn 81.
- 1:53:13Speaker 16: He's running for a fourth term. He's been president for
- 1:53:16Speaker 16: 12 years. So, you know, all the promises he made
- 1:53:19Speaker 16: that he was going to lift people out of poverty, that,
- 1:53:21Speaker 16: you know, your life's going to be great. You're going
- 1:53:23Speaker 16: to get a bunch of free stuff. It's been 12
- 1:53:24Speaker 16: years and people are seeing that there's no major changes.
- 1:53:29Speaker 16: And the other aspect to this is that the tide
- 1:53:32Speaker 16: was already turning rightward in all of Latin America before
- 1:53:36Speaker 16: COVID hit.
- 1:53:37Speaker 20: We saw some major right wing victories there.
- 1:53:39Speaker 19: 2018, 2019, 2020 hits.
- 1:53:41Speaker 16: And basically every country that had an incumbent right-wing leader
- 1:53:46Speaker 16: kicked them out because they were sick of the response
- 1:53:50Speaker 16: to COVID. And that happened with Brazil too. They kicked
- 1:53:52Speaker 16: Bolsonaro out and brought Lula back.
- 1:53:55Speaker 20: And a lot of people say that election is rigged,
- 1:53:57Speaker 20: but I disagree.
- 1:53:58Speaker 16: I think just COVID, everybody on the continent voted against
- 1:54:02Speaker 16: whoever was in office.
- 1:54:03Speaker 19: When COVID happened. And so now we're seeing course correction.
- 1:54:07Speaker 2: With that.
- 1:54:07Speaker 19: We saw it in Colombia.
- 1:54:09Speaker 16: They had their first left-wing president ever in Colombia after COVID,
- 1:54:13Speaker 16: and they immediately went.
- 1:54:14Speaker 19: Back this year to the right. We're seeing it, we
- 1:54:17Speaker 19: saw it in Peru, in Chile.
- 1:54:19Speaker 16: So we had these four post-COVID years of a kind
- 1:54:22Speaker 16: of an aberration where people voted left because the incumbents
- 1:54:26Speaker 16: were already all right-wing.
- 1:54:27Speaker 19: And so Brazil is the next one where we're seeing
- 1:54:30Speaker 19: that pattern.
- 1:54:31Speaker 16: Lula came back because Bolsonaro was the incumbent during COVID.
- 1:54:35Speaker 16: Bolsonaro's father, the The first one.
- 1:54:38Speaker 19: And now Flavio seems to be in a better position
- 1:54:41Speaker 19: to win.
- 1:54:41Speaker 16: And I think that's part of the return to the
- 1:54:44Speaker 16: rightward shift that had already begun in 2017, 2018.
- 1:54:47Speaker 1: So they dabbled for a while based upon a temporary
- 1:54:52Speaker 1: situation like COVID in that particular case. And we are
- 1:54:55Speaker 1: on the verge of perhaps doing the same stupid thing
- 1:54:58Speaker 1: because the price of gasoline has gone up, which in
- 1:55:00Speaker 1: fact will ultimately come down once the supply chain issues
- 1:55:03Speaker 1: are resolved and the wars resolve, which will happen. And
- 1:55:05Speaker 1: then people will live with regret for voting for a
- 1:55:07Speaker 1: bunch of communists here in the United States. Can I
- 1:55:09Speaker 1: draw that parallel, Francis Martel?
- 1:55:13Speaker 19: I think, you know, I think you're onto something.
- 1:55:15Speaker 16: And the difference is that luckily, you know, this election
- 1:55:18Speaker 16: coming up for us is a midterm election. So if
- 1:55:21Speaker 16: the left makes big wins in this midterm election, which
- 1:55:24Speaker 16: I honestly think the wins are going to be much
- 1:55:26Speaker 16: more modest for them than people anticipate.
- 1:55:28Speaker 19: But they'll make some, you know, they'll make gains.
- 1:55:30Speaker 20: People are annoyed by various things in the Trump administration.
- 1:55:34Speaker 16: But there's still two years between that and the next
- 1:55:37Speaker 16: presidential election. So I think, you know, if there is
- 1:55:40Speaker 16: a major left wing gain in this midterm, the disaster
- 1:55:44Speaker 16: that's going to follow that is going to affect the
- 1:55:46Speaker 16: presidential race. And that's going to be, I think, a
- 1:55:49Speaker 16: net benefit for the right.
- 1:55:50Speaker 1: Well, I appreciate your optimism because not a whole lot
- 1:55:53Speaker 1: of optimistic. These people on the conservative side of the
- 1:55:55Speaker 1: ledger as we move forward to the election day in
- 1:55:57Speaker 1: November can't. Anything else we can learn, Francis Martel, international
- 1:56:03Speaker 1: expert from this Brazil race, or more broadly perhaps the
- 1:56:07Speaker 1: fact that South America, Argentina, Chile, Peru, Bolivia, and Colombia
- 1:56:10Speaker 1: have all done the same thing that Brazil seems to
- 1:56:13Speaker 1: be doing now. It just looks to me like this
- 1:56:17Speaker 1: is a great opportunity to show the crazies in this
- 1:56:20Speaker 1: country who think moving to the left is the right
- 1:56:23Speaker 1: thing to do, that disaster will befall. Look at the
- 1:56:25Speaker 1: economic realities in these countries and look what the citizenry
- 1:56:28Speaker 1: has done in response. Live under misery, you get a
- 1:56:32Speaker 1: new direction and a better direction.
- 1:56:35Speaker 16: Yes, I mean, I think the top reason why we
- 1:56:38Speaker 16: saw this massive shift in Latin America is Venezuela. Venezuela
- 1:56:41Speaker 16: went through periods of intense famine, starvation, extreme violence from
- 1:56:47Speaker 16: about 2014 to 2018. And that period, during that period,
- 1:56:52Speaker 16: we had mass migration of Venezuelans out of the country
- 1:56:55Speaker 16: to the rest of Latin America.
- 1:56:57Speaker 19: And those people told their stories and they really.
- 1:57:00Speaker 20: You know, scared the rest of the continent.
- 1:57:02Speaker 19: Nobody wants to be Venezuela.
- 1:57:04Speaker 16: And so learning from other people's mistakes, I think is
- 1:57:07Speaker 16: something that's extremely politically wise and important for a citizenry
- 1:57:12Speaker 16: to do.
- 1:57:12Speaker 19: And that's what a lot of Latin America has done.
- 1:57:14Speaker 19: They said, we don't want to be Venezuela. We don't
- 1:57:16Speaker 19: want to be Cuba.
- 1:57:17Speaker 16: And the other part of this is the unity on
- 1:57:20Speaker 16: the right in these countries.
- 1:57:22Speaker 20: So the reason Flavio Bolsonaro is the candidate in.
- 1:57:24Speaker 16: Brazil is because the Supreme Court banned Jair Bolsonaro from
- 1:57:29Speaker 16: running for president. On these really dubious, he was accused
- 1:57:33Speaker 16: of crimes against democracy for questioning the results.
- 1:57:36Speaker 20: Of the 2022 election.
- 1:57:38Speaker 19: More and more things that sound very.
- 1:57:39Speaker 2: Familiar, right?
- 1:57:42Speaker 1: You can't make this up, Frances. Go ahead.
- 1:57:44Speaker 4: I know.
- 1:57:45Speaker 16: So Jair can't run for any public office until he's
- 1:57:48Speaker 16: 105 years old, which is going to be in 2060.
- 1:57:50Speaker 19: So his son ran.
- 1:57:52Speaker 16: But this could have been a situation where you had
- 1:57:54Speaker 16: eight different right-wing candidates all fighting for power, and they
- 1:57:58Speaker 16: actually got it together. There's a very popular governor in
- 1:58:01Speaker 16: Sao Paulo, Tarcisio.
- 1:58:03Speaker 19: He could have been the candidate.
- 1:58:04Speaker 16: He could have challenged Flavio, and he said, no, I'm
- 1:58:06Speaker 16: going to back the one candidate because if we start spying, fracturing,
- 1:58:11Speaker 16: then the left is going to win.
- 1:58:13Speaker 19: And there were three or four candidates like that.
- 1:58:14Speaker 16: Even Jair's wife, Michelle, who's Flavio's stepmom, she was considered
- 1:58:19Speaker 16: a candidate.
- 1:58:19Speaker 20: And they all lined up and they organized and they
- 1:58:22Speaker 20: got a big.
- 1:58:23Speaker 19: Win on Sunday.
- 1:58:24Speaker 16: So I think that's a big lesson for us to
- 1:58:26Speaker 16: learn on the right is that you have to organize.
- 1:58:29Speaker 2: You have to have one.
- 1:58:30Speaker 20: Candidate, not 15.
- 1:58:34Speaker 19: And, you know, there has to be a full institutional.
- 1:58:36Speaker 16: Support of that candidate because that's what the left does
- 1:58:39Speaker 16: with their people. And sometimes, you know, we fracture. And
- 1:58:43Speaker 16: that never ends up with positive election results.
- 1:58:45Speaker 1: Well, drumbeat, this has been going on in the 55KRC
- 1:58:48Speaker 1: morning show for a while, is, you know, don't throw
- 1:58:50Speaker 1: out the good in search for the perfect. You're never
- 1:58:53Speaker 1: going to get the latter. So hold your nose and
- 1:58:55Speaker 1: vote for whichever right or conservative candidate you've got Because
- 1:58:58Speaker 1: the other side is going to be full on socialism
- 1:59:00Speaker 1: here because that's the dominant force in the Democratic Party.
- 1:59:05Speaker 20: Yeah, these are not the Democrats from the 80s.
- 1:59:08Speaker 19: You know, this is Tip O'Neill. So it makes a difference.
- 1:59:12Speaker 16: And, you know, I'm in New Jersey, so we just
- 1:59:15Speaker 16: have Democratic governance all the time, even though it's a
- 1:59:17Speaker 16: purple state because of the political machines. And the political
- 1:59:21Speaker 16: machines were essentially built on the back of voters not
- 1:59:24Speaker 16: caring enough to build up an opposition, right? Just voters
- 1:59:28Speaker 16: giving up on there being any viable opposition, being disenchanted
- 1:59:32Speaker 16: with whatever opposition there is. They're never going to be
- 1:59:34Speaker 16: good enough. And what you get from that is one
- 1:59:37Speaker 16: party rule.
- 1:59:38Speaker 20: And one party rule is always bad, even when it's conservative.
- 1:59:40Speaker 19: I mean, Japan has had.
- 1:59:41Speaker 16: Conservative prime ministers for like 20 years and that the
- 1:59:46Speaker 16: conservative party is horrible because they have no competition. Um,
- 1:59:50Speaker 16: So having competition and, you know, supporting an opposition is
- 1:59:54Speaker 16: really important and really healthy for actually both sides of
- 1:59:57Speaker 16: the spectrum.
- 1:59:58Speaker 19: It's really important.
- 1:59:59Speaker 1: I would agree. It fosters debate and discussion, which is
- 2:00:02Speaker 1: good for everybody. Now, does this conservative rightward shift going
- 2:00:07Speaker 1: on in South America, does this impact the Chinese Communist
- 2:00:10Speaker 1: Party's influence as well? Because I know they were making
- 2:00:13Speaker 1: inroads and they are everywhere. We're in this global competition
- 2:00:15Speaker 1: for dominance with the Chinese Communist Party and their tentacles
- 2:00:18Speaker 1: were far-reaching, but this suggests perhaps that this will put
- 2:00:23Speaker 1: the brakes on it, maybe in Brazil, has it put
- 2:00:26Speaker 1: the brakes on that kind of activity in the other
- 2:00:28Speaker 1: countries that have gone more conservative, Frances?
- 2:00:31Speaker 19: It absolutely has.
- 2:00:32Speaker 16: I think the best example is Panama, where the Chinese
- 2:00:36Speaker 16: had essentially taken over the Panama Canal by buying up
- 2:00:39Speaker 16: the ports that were around the canal and controlling them,
- 2:00:44Speaker 16: and they had, you know, sort of milk toast, corrupt
- 2:00:47Speaker 16: lefty governments. I wouldn't say they had like Marxist communist governments,
- 2:00:51Speaker 16: but they had left wing governments that were more than
- 2:00:53Speaker 16: happy to take money from the Chinese.
- 2:00:55Speaker 19: And then they finally voted for a conservative.
- 2:00:59Speaker 16: President Molino, who's there now. They actually voted for him
- 2:01:01Speaker 16: on immigration grounds. They wanted an end to the Darien
- 2:01:04Speaker 16: gap disaster. They wanted someone to shut that down. Molino
- 2:01:07Speaker 16: shut it down with Trump's help. But then also with
- 2:01:11Speaker 16: the Trump administration's help, he, And through the Supreme Court,
- 2:01:15Speaker 16: they basically voided the contract that gave these ports to China.
- 2:01:19Speaker 19: So the Chinese got kicked out of the canal, and
- 2:01:21Speaker 19: they're furious.
- 2:01:22Speaker 20: They're suing the Panamanian government to get the canal back.
- 2:01:26Speaker 16: And that's a major loss for China because controlling that
- 2:01:29Speaker 16: trade route is massive for them. So that's probably their
- 2:01:33Speaker 16: biggest loss, but they've lost a lot of traffic and
- 2:01:36Speaker 16: business deals.
- 2:01:39Speaker 17: Through the Belt and.
- 2:01:39Speaker 19: Road, which is their infrastructure plan. I think Peru is
- 2:01:42Speaker 19: a big problem for them.
- 2:01:43Speaker 16: They're building a huge port on the Pacific coast there
- 2:01:46Speaker 16: to bring in Chinese goods. And they just elected a
- 2:01:50Speaker 16: hardline conservative Japanese president.
- 2:01:53Speaker 19: So that's I don't think that's going to go well
- 2:01:55Speaker 19: for them.
- 2:01:57Speaker 20: You know, if they lose Brazil, you know, Brazil is
- 2:02:01Speaker 20: one of.
- 2:02:01Speaker 16: The few countries in the world that has a trade
- 2:02:03Speaker 16: surplus with China because of agriculture.
- 2:02:06Speaker 19: They grow a lot of soybeans.
- 2:02:08Speaker 16: They grow a lot of stuff that Chinese markets need.
- 2:02:11Speaker 20: So Brazil is really important to stay left-wing for the Chinese.
- 2:02:15Speaker 3: All right.
- 2:02:15Speaker 1: Now, do you draw any connection between the U.S. aid
- 2:02:19Speaker 1: issues that we finally discovered when Doge got to work?
- 2:02:21Speaker 1: Because many are suggesting that the Trump administration has shut
- 2:02:26Speaker 1: off the funding, or at least we're not funding anti-American messages,
- 2:02:30Speaker 1: which many suggest U.S. aid was actually doing in other countries.
- 2:02:33Speaker 1: But what's your take on this whole connection with U.S.
- 2:02:35Speaker 6: Aid?
- 2:02:36Speaker 1: If you have one, I mean, I.
- 2:02:38Speaker 20: Don't I don't buy this at all.
- 2:02:39Speaker 19: I'm going to be honest with you.
- 2:02:40Speaker 16: I think this is being that's being pushed by Twitter
- 2:02:44Speaker 16: because Twitter is owned by Elon Musk, who is an
- 2:02:47Speaker 16: ally of the Chinese Communist Party, who is, you know,
- 2:02:50Speaker 16: his the one thing that he claims is an achievement
- 2:02:52Speaker 16: during his time in the Trump years was shutting down USAID,
- 2:02:55Speaker 16: which is actually Marco Rubio's achievement.
- 2:02:57Speaker 19: But whatever. Right.
- 2:02:59Speaker 16: So I think, you know, I think the Elon team
- 2:03:02Speaker 16: really wants people to believe that. Shutting down USAID is
- 2:03:06Speaker 16: what made the difference here. But the reason I challenge
- 2:03:09Speaker 16: that is because it really disenfranchises Latin American voters. It
- 2:03:14Speaker 16: makes it sound like, you know, we just determine what
- 2:03:16Speaker 16: they think at any time.
- 2:03:19Speaker 20: And I don't think that's fair. I think there's been significant.
- 2:03:22Speaker 16: Shifts in the way people think in Latin America that
- 2:03:24Speaker 16: have nothing to do with that.
- 2:03:25Speaker 19: I think it's immigration, honestly.
- 2:03:27Speaker 20: Like, if you look at the Brazil map, the state of.
- 2:03:30Speaker 19: Roraima, which is the one that has the biggest border
- 2:03:32Speaker 19: with Venezuela.
- 2:03:33Speaker 20: was the only northern state to.
- 2:03:35Speaker 16: Go bolsonaro that's because it has so many venezuelan immigrants
- 2:03:39Speaker 16: that are now citizens that are voting um so it's
- 2:03:42Speaker 16: kind of like the opposite the opposite of what we
- 2:03:45Speaker 16: fear here oh there's a huge influx of immigrants that
- 2:03:47Speaker 16: are going to vote left a lot.
- 2:03:49Speaker 19: Of these countries chile too had a.
- 2:03:51Speaker 16: Massive influx of venezuelan immigrants and the immigration is changing
- 2:03:55Speaker 16: the demographics and it's actually pushing these countries to the.
- 2:03:57Speaker 1: Right that you know so many parallels here francis i
- 2:04:00Speaker 1: am so happy we had this conversation because you know
- 2:04:03Speaker 1: It's hard enough for people to pay attention to what
- 2:04:05Speaker 1: in the hell is going on in their own backyard.
- 2:04:06Speaker 1: At least they don't dedicate enough time to that. To
- 2:04:08Speaker 1: know what's happening politically in South America and specifically Brazil
- 2:04:12Speaker 1: this morning, I think it's very insightful and helpful. And
- 2:04:14Speaker 1: I appreciate you breaking it down, Frances Martel. This has
- 2:04:17Speaker 1: been a great discussion.
- 2:04:19Speaker 19: Thank you so much. It's always fun to share.
- 2:04:21Speaker 1: I appreciate you joining the program from time to time.
- 2:04:23Speaker 1: You are always welcome here on the 55KRC Morning Show,
- 2:04:25Speaker 1: and I'll look forward to another conversation with you real soon.
- 2:04:27Speaker 1: Keep up the great work there, please.
- 2:04:30Speaker 19: Thank you so much. And back at you. This is
- 2:04:32Speaker 19: a great show.
- 2:04:33Speaker 1: Thank you very much. I appreciate that. 820-55-KRC-D Talk Station.
- 2:04:37Speaker 1: Bottom of the hour with a Daniel Davis deep dive.
- 2:04:39Speaker 1: Gird your loins. We'll see if he's got something positive
- 2:04:41Speaker 1: to say about the unfolding situation with the war with
- 2:04:45Speaker 1: the Iranians. And, of course, you've got the Houthis bombing
- 2:04:48Speaker 1: the hell out of the Saudis. Let's check that out
- 2:04:49Speaker 1: with Daniel Davis coming up at the bottom of the hour.
- 2:04:51Speaker 1: In the meantime, let me mention CoverSensee because John Roman
- 2:04:54Speaker 1: and the team at CoverSensee would welcome your phone call.
- 2:04:56Speaker 1: You do not have to pay them a dime. The
- 2:04:59Speaker 1: service they offer for you is free, and that's to
- 2:05:01Speaker 1: analyze your medical insurance. And my friends are getting ready
- 2:05:04Speaker 1: to sign up for Medicare again. Don't go automatic renewal.
- 2:05:08Speaker 1: It is so important that you talk with John Ruhlman
- 2:05:11Speaker 1: or any member of the team. Let me underscore that part.
- 2:05:15Speaker 1: To find out what the changes are. The changes are
- 2:05:17Speaker 1: rapidly approaching. I believe they are going to be released
- 2:05:19Speaker 1: on the 15th of this month, at which point they're
- 2:05:21Speaker 1: going to be able to properly inform you. So schedule
- 2:05:23Speaker 1: an appointment to meet with them. Do not automatic renew
- 2:05:25Speaker 1: because you could find yourself in a terrible place. down
- 2:05:29Speaker 1: the road. And they can explain all the reasons why.
- 2:05:31Speaker 1: And again, it doesn't cost you anything. So take them
- 2:05:33Speaker 1: up on that free service. Now for everybody else with
- 2:05:35Speaker 1: medical insurance, schedule an appointment with anybody over at cover
- 2:05:38Speaker 1: since you can have them see what you've got, because
- 2:05:40Speaker 1: there is a way to get you better medical insurance
- 2:05:43Speaker 1: for less money. Matter of fact, there are a lot
- 2:05:45Speaker 1: of different ways to achieve that. I talk with him
- 2:05:47Speaker 1: every Sunday on the morning show or on the Sunday program,
- 2:05:50Speaker 1: rethink healthcare together about this. And I've learned so much
- 2:05:53Speaker 1: about the medical insurance industry and John and the team
- 2:05:56Speaker 1: do it completely. different, saving you money at no cost
- 2:06:01Speaker 1: to you, and then being there for you afterwards. Because
- 2:06:03Speaker 1: once you're insured through CoverSense, any claims, disputes, any problems,
- 2:06:08Speaker 1: you get an EOB, you don't understand, that claim wasn't paid,
- 2:06:10Speaker 1: what in the hell? You don't have to spend any
- 2:06:12Speaker 1: time on the phone with the insurance company. They got
- 2:06:13Speaker 1: a team to hammer out all the problems or figure
- 2:06:15Speaker 1: out all the problems for you. Again, at no cost.
- 2:06:18Speaker 1: Would you like to save a lot of money? Would
- 2:06:21Speaker 1: you like to be, maybe if you're a couple under 65,
- 2:06:24Speaker 1: saving 50% off but having better medical coverage? If that
- 2:06:26Speaker 1: sounds like a great concept, Why not spend some time,
- 2:06:29Speaker 1: a little bit of time? There's two ways you can
- 2:06:32Speaker 1: reach them to start the process. A phone call, 513-800-CALL, 513-800-2255,
- 2:06:35Speaker 1: or the website where there's a form. Fill that out.
- 2:06:37Speaker 1: It's confidential. They'll just use that to get in touch

- 2:07:03Speaker 10: And the lay time is starting to drop a bit
- 2:07:05Speaker 10: out of St. Bernard to the accident at Galbraith. Northbound 71,
- 2:07:09Speaker 10: the wrecks clear near Red Bank. Traffic's starting to move
- 2:07:12Speaker 10: at a better pace from Smith Edwards. Chuck Ingram, 55KRC,
- 2:07:17Speaker 10: the talk station.
- 2:07:20Speaker 1: 831, it's Tuesday. It's that time of the week. We
- 2:07:22Speaker 1: do the alliterative Daniel Davis deep dive. Retired Colonel Daniel
- 2:07:25Speaker 1: Davis with his analysis of all things warfare. And, of course,
- 2:07:29Speaker 1: looks like we've got a proxy war going on. The
- 2:07:31Speaker 1: Houthis attacking the Saudis. The Saudis responding with a massive,
- 2:07:35Speaker 1: I guess, Welcome back, Daniel Davis. It's always a distinct
- 2:07:39Speaker 1: pleasure to have you on the 55KRC Morning Show.
- 2:07:42Speaker 12: As always, a pleasure to be here.
- 2:07:44Speaker 1: I appreciate that, sir, and I certainly appreciate your analysis. Now,
- 2:07:49Speaker 1: my friend, are the Houthis attacking the Saudis? Because apparently
- 2:07:54Speaker 1: there was a four-year lull. They were playing nicely together,
- 2:07:57Speaker 1: at least on some level, and then the Houthis started
- 2:07:59Speaker 1: bombing the Saudi, uh, uh, refineries. I understand. They also
- 2:08:03Speaker 1: started targeting the King Khalid airport, shutting down air travel
- 2:08:06Speaker 1: the other day, air travel the other day. Are they
- 2:08:09Speaker 1: operating under the instructions of the Iranians or is this
- 2:08:12Speaker 1: a go it alone kind of thing? Because listen, I,
- 2:08:14Speaker 1: I keep hearing that the Iranians don't have any money anymore.
- 2:08:18Speaker 1: And how could a, uh, uh, a proxy war be
- 2:08:21Speaker 1: waged if the Iranians don't have any money or ability
- 2:08:23Speaker 1: to fund them? And I'm sure that's not the case,
- 2:08:25Speaker 1: but that's why we have you, Daniel Davis.
- 2:08:28Speaker 12: Yeah, Iranians do still have money. There's no doubt about that.
- 2:08:32Speaker 12: They have the reserves because they have looked forward to
- 2:08:34Speaker 12: seeing stuff. But there's a more fundamental issue at stake here.
- 2:08:37Speaker 12: There's a belief in the West that everybody, Hamas, Hezbollah,
- 2:08:42Speaker 12: and the Houthis are all proxies and extensions of Iran.
- 2:08:45Speaker 12: That's never been the case. They have common cause. They
- 2:08:48Speaker 12: consider themselves allies. But the Houthis in particular are their opponents.
- 2:08:54Speaker 12: And they have their own independent issue with Saudi Arabia
- 2:08:57Speaker 12: that goes back actually long before 2015. But from 2015
- 2:09:01Speaker 12: for about eight years, they had a pretty sizable war
- 2:09:04Speaker 12: with Saudi Arabia through the Saudi-backed Yemen forces. who have
- 2:09:13Speaker 12: control over about 20% of the population. They kind of
- 2:09:15Speaker 12: have a civil war, and it kind of moved into
- 2:09:19Speaker 12: a stalemate in 2022, 2023. They had sort of an
- 2:09:23Speaker 12: armistice where they kind of had an agreement, but they
- 2:09:25Speaker 12: didn't solve it. And that held until Saudi Arabia decided
- 2:09:30Speaker 12: to attack Yemen, the Houthi forces on Sarawak. On the
- 2:09:36Speaker 12: day when they tried to land a plane in Sana'a
- 2:09:40Speaker 12: to attend the assassinated senior leader for Iran. Now, what
- 2:09:45Speaker 12: the Saudis said, well, that broke a blockade we have
- 2:09:49Speaker 12: on you. They had a ceasefire in 2023, but Saudi
- 2:09:53Speaker 12: Arabia still had a blockade on them. Well, they broke that.
- 2:09:56Speaker 12: By sending somebody to this funeral, and Saudi Arabia decided
- 2:09:59Speaker 12: to bomb the airport. And Ansar Allah said, okay, that's it.
- 2:10:05Speaker 12: You broke the truce. Now it's game on. And they
- 2:10:08Speaker 12: reacted in a much stronger way than Saudi Arabia expected.
- 2:10:12Speaker 12: And so then that sparked the whole thing on. Now
- 2:10:14Speaker 12: they go back and forth. But Ansar Allah surprised everybody
- 2:10:17Speaker 12: by moving on the ground. not just attacking with their
- 2:10:20Speaker 12: missile forces, which they had been doing. And so now
- 2:10:23Speaker 12: Saudi Arabia is really panicking, they're like, all right, we
- 2:10:26Speaker 12: better get this in the butt now. So now they're
- 2:10:28Speaker 12: trying to start a counterattack. But I'm telling you, I
- 2:10:31Speaker 12: think that's a big mistake because they don't have the
- 2:10:34Speaker 12: forces to sustain. They've already tried this over multiple years
- 2:10:38Speaker 12: with lots of air power.
- 2:10:40Speaker 3: And it didn't succeed.
- 2:10:41Speaker 12: The Biden administration didn't succeed. Trump didn't succeed in 2025,
- 2:10:46Speaker 12: and Saudi Arabia isn't likely to succeed with air power now.
- 2:10:49Speaker 1: So when I read an article that says Iran and
- 2:10:52Speaker 1: Saudi Arabia are edging dangerously closer to direct conflict, do
- 2:10:56Speaker 1: you think that is an accurate assessment suggesting this is
- 2:10:59Speaker 1: a proxy war and the Iranians are directing this? You've
- 2:11:02Speaker 1: already dismissed that suggestion.
- 2:11:04Speaker 12: Yeah, no, I don't think that at all. In fact,
- 2:11:07Speaker 12: Iran is focused on what President Trump is going to do,
- 2:11:11Speaker 12: not on what Saudi Arabia is going to do. But
- 2:11:13Speaker 12: they're happy to not mess with Saudi Arabia at all
- 2:11:15Speaker 12: because Ansar Allah has been decisively engaged right now. So
- 2:11:19Speaker 12: they're no threat whatsoever to Iran whatsoever. The only reason
- 2:11:22Speaker 12: Iran is gonna get involved is gonna be if Trump
- 2:11:25Speaker 12: restarts this war here somewhere around the midterm elections. And
- 2:11:31Speaker 12: then Saudi Arabia allows their airspace to be used or
- 2:11:34Speaker 12: their bases to be used, and then Iran would strike back.
- 2:11:37Speaker 12: So they're pretty descriptive of what they would do. And
- 2:11:40Speaker 12: if Saudi Arabia doesn't do those things, then Iran says,
- 2:11:43Speaker 12: we're not gonna hit you.
- 2:11:46Speaker 1: I think a lot of people have been of the
- 2:11:47Speaker 1: open mind that maybe someday the rest of the Middle
- 2:11:49Speaker 1: Eastern countries would join forces together and at least play
- 2:11:52Speaker 1: nicely with the United States to defeat the Iranians. So
- 2:11:55Speaker 1: you're saying this is not a step that will lead
- 2:11:58Speaker 1: the Saudis to reach that conclusion. But also I hear
- 2:12:01Speaker 1: in your words about the ability of the Saudis, they
- 2:12:03Speaker 1: wouldn't bring much to the table by way of military
- 2:12:05Speaker 1: might if they were to join us and start fighting
- 2:12:08Speaker 1: with the Iranians.
- 2:12:09Speaker 12: That is exactly the issue because they have basically just
- 2:12:15Speaker 12: basically what we're looking for signed over. contracted out their
- 2:12:21Speaker 12: security to the United States. They said, you guys got it,
- 2:12:24Speaker 12: so we don't have to worry much about that. They
- 2:12:26Speaker 12: had an air force, they have an air force, but
- 2:12:28Speaker 12: they don't have much of a ground force at all,
- 2:12:31Speaker 12: nor does anybody else in the Middle East. That's why
- 2:12:33Speaker 12: you haven't seen them do much the whole war, not
- 2:12:35Speaker 12: because they don't have incentives. So I mean, when they
- 2:12:37Speaker 12: get bombed, everybody has an incentive to strike back, but
- 2:12:40Speaker 12: they don't have the capacity. And so they realize they
- 2:12:43Speaker 12: don't want to get into a direction fight with Iran,
- 2:12:46Speaker 12: at least not very much, because they know that they
- 2:12:49Speaker 12: would be vulnerable to all kinds of counterstructs that they
- 2:12:52Speaker 12: can't defend against. So nobody wants to get into this war.
- 2:12:55Speaker 12: Everybody wants it to be over. But nobody's willing to
- 2:12:59Speaker 12: take the first step. So it's a real problem for everybody.
- 2:13:02Speaker 1: So what I'm hearing in that in the morning where
- 2:13:03Speaker 1: we've been drawing a lot of parallels with different things
- 2:13:06Speaker 1: going on in the world here in the morning show,
- 2:13:08Speaker 1: The situation in the Middle East, much like NATO, where
- 2:13:10Speaker 1: they relied on the United States to provide all their
- 2:13:12Speaker 1: military might and hardware and defense against the Soviet Union
- 2:13:15Speaker 1: or any iteration thereafter and not funding their own military
- 2:13:19Speaker 1: or building their own military strength. That's the same kind
- 2:13:21Speaker 1: of thing, isn't it?
- 2:13:23Speaker 12: You know, I would actually argue that in the Cold
- 2:13:26Speaker 12: War with NATO, the European countries did provide quite a
- 2:13:29Speaker 12: bit of security until 1992. And then they said, OK, cool.
- 2:13:34Speaker 12: You guys can keep doing this, America. And then it
- 2:13:37Speaker 12: went bad.
- 2:13:37Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 2:13:38Speaker 1: All right, that solves that. Now, insofar as whether or
- 2:13:42Speaker 1: not we start kinetic activity with the Iranians maybe after
- 2:13:46Speaker 1: the election, which is what Trump has said, I think
- 2:13:47Speaker 1: that's sort of like a comment to Iran. Hey, listen,
- 2:13:52Speaker 1: I don't care about the election. I'll bomb the hell
- 2:13:54Speaker 1: out of you after the election even if I lose.
- 2:13:55Speaker 1: But 9,000 troops and a new carrier group. Is that
- 2:13:58Speaker 1: to sort of suggest he's going to make good on
- 2:14:01Speaker 1: it with the idea that he's really not? I mean,
- 2:14:03Speaker 1: I don't know what to make of the new carrier
- 2:14:05Speaker 1: group going there. Are they going to relieve somebody, or
- 2:14:07Speaker 1: is this just a bolstering of forces in advance of
- 2:14:09Speaker 1: military action?
- 2:14:11Speaker 12: They're not saying, they're not answering that very, very important question.
- 2:14:15Speaker 12: But just the history of President Trump, he almost never,
- 2:14:19Speaker 12: and in fact, I'm not sure that he ever does
- 2:14:22Speaker 12: deploy combat power and then not use it. So historically,
- 2:14:25Speaker 12: being what it is, at least in this term, that
- 2:14:28Speaker 12: usually indicates something's coming. But my grave concern is that
- 2:14:32Speaker 12: we would be trying to hit the same targets with
- 2:14:34Speaker 12: the same ammunition that didn't work the first time. And
- 2:14:37Speaker 12: it's very, I mean, it's impossible that it's going to
- 2:14:40Speaker 12: work the second time either. And it will spawn an
- 2:14:43Speaker 12: even more powerful counter-strike because Iran has been preparing for
- 2:14:46Speaker 12: it in this intermediate time. Just like we've been restocking,
- 2:14:49Speaker 12: they've been restocking. And we've already shown that we don't
- 2:14:52Speaker 12: have the air defense capacity to stop the Iranian missiles.
- 2:14:55Speaker 12: No matter what is actually being knocked down, it's not enough,
- 2:14:58Speaker 12: and they have more than enough to defeat it. So
- 2:15:01Speaker 12: it could get real ugly for us. And I'm just
- 2:15:03Speaker 12: telling you, we cannot knock out Granite Mountains. We can't
- 2:15:07Speaker 12: take the missile cities out from underneath, and we've tried everything. everything,
- 2:15:10Speaker 12: even nuclear weapons wouldn't work if anybody's thinking that. So
- 2:15:14Speaker 12: I have real worries that we may try to do
- 2:15:16Speaker 12: it anyway, hit them one last time or something, but
- 2:15:19Speaker 12: that could spark a counter-strike by Iran against the GCC
- 2:15:22Speaker 12: oil industry in a way they haven't hit it so far,
- 2:15:25Speaker 12: but have promised they will if it goes to another round.
- 2:15:28Speaker 12: So I think it would be a bad idea, and
- 2:15:30Speaker 12: I really hope it's a bluff.
- 2:15:32Speaker 1: Well, it certainly seems it would exacerbate the already critical
- 2:15:34Speaker 1: problem we've got with global fuel supplies right now. So
- 2:15:37Speaker 1: I hear where you're coming from. And will you just briefly, sir,
- 2:15:41Speaker 1: address the concept of boots on the ground? There are
- 2:15:43Speaker 1: several listeners who wholly disagree with your assessment of it,
- 2:15:47Speaker 1: and I've been talking to you for so long. I
- 2:15:48Speaker 1: fully appreciate where you're coming from, Daniel Davis, but can
- 2:15:51Speaker 1: you remind folks of the logistical realities of putting boots
- 2:15:55Speaker 1: on the ground in Iran?
- 2:15:57Speaker 12: Yeah, I mean, no disrespect for your listeners, but I'm
- 2:16:02Speaker 12: just so puzzled.
- 2:16:04Speaker 1: No, you're not disrespecting them, because this is the conversation
- 2:16:07Speaker 1: I have to have with folks. I mentioned this guy... Well,
- 2:16:10Speaker 1: I asked him specifically one guy always comments in a
- 2:16:12Speaker 1: negative way. And I said, well, what would you do
- 2:16:14Speaker 1: if you were general? I just go in and look.
- 2:16:18Speaker 1: I don't even know what that means, sir, but this
- 2:16:20Speaker 1: is the kind of reality that I've got to face
- 2:16:21Speaker 1: as a morning show host.
- 2:16:22Speaker 12: Yeah, so let me just kind of, as a real
- 2:16:25Speaker 12: brief analogy, show you what happened when I deployed with
- 2:16:28Speaker 12: a very large contingent in 1991, and we went in
- 2:16:31Speaker 12: on the ground during Desert Storm, and we had about
- 2:16:34Speaker 12: six or eight months of logistics buildup.
- 2:16:37Speaker 2: We had an army that.
- 2:16:38Speaker 12: Was 750,000 at the time instead of 400 and something
- 2:16:40Speaker 12: we got right now. And we had all these allied
- 2:16:44Speaker 12: countries that were willing to put in major combat power.
- 2:16:47Speaker 12: And we had over 500,000 people to go in and
- 2:16:50Speaker 12: take on Saddam Hussein on a flat ground with no
- 2:16:54Speaker 12: air defense, no missiles, no air force. Now then we
- 2:16:59Speaker 12: have to go into mountains in an area that is
- 2:17:02Speaker 12: like four or five times bigger than Iraq. It is mountainous,
- 2:17:06Speaker 12: so it's as big as Western Europe, but with these
- 2:17:08Speaker 12: granite mountains that none of.
- 2:17:09Speaker 3: Which existed before.
- 2:17:11Speaker 12: And if you try to attack into a mountainous area,
- 2:17:14Speaker 12: you have to go in down valleys and you're sitting ducks.
- 2:17:17Speaker 12: to the enemy who can basically burrow into granite mountain.
- 2:17:20Speaker 12: So it's nearly hard to pull them out and they
- 2:17:22Speaker 12: can just pick you off one by one. As you
- 2:17:24Speaker 12: go down these very limited paths, you just can't do it.
- 2:17:28Speaker 5: Uh, and it would take us months.
- 2:17:29Speaker 12: I mean, like a half year or more to assemble
- 2:17:31Speaker 12: combat power from a smaller reserve than we.
- 2:17:34Speaker 3: Had last time.
- 2:17:34Speaker 12: So there's just no viable path of this 10,000 people is,
- 2:17:38Speaker 12: is only enough to, to like, say, let's just go.
- 2:17:41Speaker 3: Get a little dot on the map somewhere.
- 2:17:42Speaker 12: Kashim island uh karg island and you can't sustain it.
- 2:17:46Speaker 4: I mean you couldn't you what would you.
- 2:17:48Speaker 12: Gain by having this tiny little spot in the country
- 2:17:50Speaker 12: that's as big as western europe it's just practically impossible
- 2:17:53Speaker 12: uh to do it's impossible.
- 2:17:55Speaker 1: Gotta listen to the bad news and you know go
- 2:17:58Speaker 1: ahead and draw your own conclusions but ultimately how could
- 2:18:01Speaker 1: i find fault with what daniel davis is saying logistically
- 2:18:04Speaker 1: speaking we're not talking about you know apples and apples
- 2:18:06Speaker 1: relative to iraq and iran and obviously presents a completely
- 2:18:09Speaker 1: different challenge from a terrain standpoint. Daniel Davis, I know
- 2:18:12Speaker 1: it's not always good news, but you've got to hear
- 2:18:13Speaker 1: it and factor it into the equation. We're making good decisions, right?
- 2:18:16Speaker 1: That's why we have these conversations.
- 2:18:19Speaker 2: Exactly.
- 2:18:20Speaker 1: Find your podcast, Daniel Davis Deep Dive, is what you're
- 2:18:22Speaker 1: looking for, and tune in every week here to the
- 2:18:24Speaker 1: 55KRC Morning Show at 830 and get another dose of
- 2:18:27Speaker 1: truth from Daniel Davis. It's always a pleasure having you on, sir.
- 2:18:29Speaker 1: I appreciate it.
- 2:18:31Speaker 3: Always my pleasure, Brad.
- 2:18:32Speaker 6: See you next week.
- 2:18:33Speaker 1: Have a great week. 842, we're going to talk guns.
- 2:18:36Speaker 1: Jeff Monroe from 22.3 Route 42 between Mesa and Lubbock.
- 2:18:38Speaker 1: We've got some new developments in the law. If you're
- 2:18:40Speaker 1: interested in getting a suppressor or short-barreled rifle, I think
- 2:18:43Speaker 1: we've got some good news coming your way. We'll also
- 2:18:45Speaker 1: find out what's hot and popular. Don't go away. We'll
- 2:18:48Speaker 1: talk guns coming up next. First, I'll get to talk
- 2:18:53Speaker 1: about USA Insulation. I really encourage you to make a
- 2:18:55Speaker 1: phone call to USA to have them inspect the exterior
- 2:18:57Speaker 1: walls of your home to find out if you're adequately insulated.
- 2:19:00Speaker 1: You want to save money. The Duke Energy Bill is
- 2:19:02Speaker 1: not going to go down. I keep pointing that out.
- 2:19:04Speaker 1: You know it. You look at it every month. Can
- 2:19:06Speaker 1: you imagine it being 50% of what it is? That
- 2:19:08Speaker 1: is achievable with USA's premium foam. I'm sure out there
- 2:19:12Speaker 1: somebody saved more than that, but lots and lots of
- 2:19:14Speaker 1: folks are at least saving the $ 99 a month interest-free
- 2:19:17Speaker 1: it costs to get USA's premium foam. $ 99 a month interest-free,
- 2:19:21Speaker 1: and on top of that, Steve is now going to
- 2:19:22Speaker 1: throw an additional $ 500 discount at you. So get the
- 2:19:26Speaker 1: free quote, and if you don't need it, then they
- 2:19:28Speaker 1: won't tell you you do. under-insulated like my daughter's home,
- 2:19:32Speaker 1: un-insulated completely. That'll be a home built before the mid-70s.
- 2:19:35Speaker 1: Put the foam in there, that USA foam, highest R-value
- 2:19:37Speaker 1: on the market, and it's made in Ohio. And it
- 2:19:40Speaker 1: isn't subject to tariff. Steve likes me to throw that
- 2:19:42Speaker 1: in there. Regardless, it's a free inspection, so find out.
- 2:19:46Speaker 1: And if you need it, get it. The only regret
- 2:19:47Speaker 1: you're going to have is you didn't pull the trigger
- 2:19:49Speaker 1: on that sooner. 381-3626-513-381-FOAM. Online, it's usainsolation.net.

- 2:20:11Speaker 10: and town and getting a little bit.
- 2:20:12Speaker 1: Better out of St.
- 2:20:13Speaker 5: Bernard.
- 2:20:14Speaker 10: Towards what's left of the accident at Galbraith, delayed times...
- 2:20:17Speaker 10: Just over the 15-minute mark. Southbound 71, brake lights continue.
- 2:20:22Speaker 10: Pfeiffer to Red Bank. Chuck Abram, 55KRC, the talk station.
- 2:20:26Speaker 1: 815-55KRC, the talk station. Second Amendment, let's talk about it.
- 2:20:32Speaker 1: No better person on the planet to talk about the
- 2:20:35Speaker 1: Second Amendment than Jeff Monroe. Owner of 22.3 Firearms on
- 2:20:39Speaker 1: Route 42 between Mesa and Lebanon, along with his beautiful wife, Wendy.
- 2:20:42Speaker 1: Got to give her props for being there every day. And,
- 2:20:44Speaker 1: of course, the customer service at 22.3 couldn't be better,
- 2:20:46Speaker 1: and I've been in there a lot. And lately, Jeff,
- 2:20:49Speaker 1: welcome to the morning show. I've seen a lot of
- 2:20:50Speaker 1: people walking out with suppressors. They're all the rage these days,
- 2:20:54Speaker 1: and most notably because there's no longer a $ 200 payment
- 2:20:58Speaker 1: that goes along with that. But there's still a registry, Jeff.
- 2:21:02Speaker 1: It's a pleasure to have you on the program. Is
- 2:21:03Speaker 1: that the case, or have we got a new legal
- 2:21:06Speaker 1: development since the DOJ is not appealing the decision that
- 2:21:10Speaker 1: threw out the whole idea of registering because the tax
- 2:21:14Speaker 1: was thrown out? The only reason for registration was to
- 2:21:18Speaker 1: facilitate the tax collection. No tax collection, no registration necessary,
- 2:21:22Speaker 1: but that's not all the case. That's why we have
- 2:21:23Speaker 1: you here, Jeff, to break it down for my audience
- 2:21:25Speaker 1: and me.
- 2:21:27Speaker 21: Yeah, well, thanks so much for having me, and thanks
- 2:21:29Speaker 21: for the shout-out to Wendy. You're exactly right. The $ 200,
- 2:21:33Speaker 21: you know, when Congress zeroed that out in January, we
- 2:21:37Speaker 21: saw that the suppressor market went way up, and we
- 2:21:41Speaker 21: know that the interest was there. And then in August,
- 2:21:45Speaker 21: there was a judge in Texas that said exactly what
- 2:21:49Speaker 21: you just said, and that is if there's no tax,
- 2:21:51Speaker 21: then you can't actually force the registration under the tax code.
- 2:21:55Speaker 21: So So now what we're waiting on is for the
- 2:21:58Speaker 21: director of the ATF to come out with guidance on
- 2:22:01Speaker 21: telling us how that's going to impact us. And realistically,
- 2:22:04Speaker 21: he said over the weekend that he was going to
- 2:22:07Speaker 21: do that later this week. So we're hoping it didn't
- 2:22:10Speaker 21: happen yesterday. It hadn't happened this morning yet. But we're
- 2:22:12Speaker 21: hoping later this week that we're going to get some guidance.
- 2:22:14Speaker 21: Right now, we're in Ohio anyway. We're still processing suppressors
- 2:22:19Speaker 21: the same way that we have since January, and that.
- 2:22:21Speaker 3: Is no tax fees.
- 2:22:23Speaker 21: However, you know, we'd still need to go through the
- 2:22:25Speaker 21: NFA registry, which is a form for us.
- 2:22:27Speaker 3: Pretty simple.
- 2:22:28Speaker 21: We help you through that guide, you know, guide you
- 2:22:29Speaker 21: through it. You do your fingerprints and we submit them
- 2:22:32Speaker 21: for you. But the fact is, is that right now,
- 2:22:35Speaker 21: that's where we stand in Ohio.
- 2:22:37Speaker 1: Well, one of the reasons people are buying suppressors, I
- 2:22:39Speaker 1: think crazy anti-gun folks think that it's all about assassinating
- 2:22:43Speaker 1: people and shooting silently. But anybody who's ever used a
- 2:22:46Speaker 1: suppressor and knows anything about them, they don't render the
- 2:22:49Speaker 1: gun quiet or completely silent. They just suppress the volume
- 2:22:54Speaker 1: so it doesn't hurt your ears. I mean, I bought
- 2:22:57Speaker 1: one just the other day for that purpose alone. It's
- 2:22:58Speaker 1: like you can shoot without hearing protection. It's wonderful. It's
- 2:23:01Speaker 1: a nice break in the routine from having to have
- 2:23:03Speaker 1: ears on.
- 2:23:05Speaker 21: That's exactly right. People are buying them just for that reason.
- 2:23:08Speaker 21: It's the same reason that, you know, when I'm looking
- 2:23:10Speaker 21: at a new dishwasher, I want the lowest decibel rating
- 2:23:13Speaker 21: that I can get.
- 2:23:14Speaker 5: Yes, yes.
- 2:23:15Speaker 21: I want that thing to be quiet. And same thing goes,
- 2:23:17Speaker 21: you know, if you want to suppress like a. 22
- 2:23:19Speaker 21: caliber dishwasher, It's going to be remarkably quiet and very comfortable.
- 2:23:23Speaker 21: You know, hearing actually is one of those things that
- 2:23:26Speaker 21: we know gets worse over time. And if you subject
- 2:23:29Speaker 21: yourself to shooting, for example, over a lifetime, that's going
- 2:23:32Speaker 21: to get worse over your lifetime. Well, if we can
- 2:23:35Speaker 21: just put the earmuffs on the end of the gun,
- 2:23:38Speaker 21: how awesome is that? Now we can actually, just like
- 2:23:40Speaker 21: everything else in our life, We want it to be
- 2:23:42Speaker 21: a little quieter. We want our mufflers to be quiet.
- 2:23:45Speaker 21: We want our cars to be quiet. We want that
- 2:23:48Speaker 21: in our lives. And in fact, the government regulates it
- 2:23:51Speaker 21: and says, oh, you have to be quiet in so
- 2:23:53Speaker 21: many ways. But in this particular way, the government itself
- 2:23:56Speaker 21: is saying, oh, no, we can't let you be quiet
- 2:23:59Speaker 21: on a gun.
- 2:23:59Speaker 3: Well, that's just silly. We need to change that.
- 2:24:01Speaker 1: Well, while we're waiting for official guidance from the administration,
- 2:24:04Speaker 1: what is the scope of the court ruling? I mean,
- 2:24:07Speaker 1: how broadly does it apply? Because If you're in the
- 2:24:09Speaker 1: plaintiff class in that particular case, you don't have to
- 2:24:11Speaker 1: fill out the paperwork either, do you?
- 2:24:14Speaker 12: Well, you do in Ohio.
- 2:24:16Speaker 1: I know. We're not part of the circuit where that
- 2:24:19Speaker 1: decision applies, and nor are we, at least I am not,
- 2:24:24Speaker 1: part of the plaintiff class who pursued the litigation in
- 2:24:26Speaker 1: the first place, like the Gun Owners Association or whatever organization.
- 2:24:29Speaker 1: They get the freedom from the FFL, but we out
- 2:24:32Speaker 1: here in the unwashed masses of different circuits don't get
- 2:24:34Speaker 1: that benefit yet.
- 2:24:36Speaker 3: That's right. That's right.
- 2:24:37Speaker 21: So right this minute, there are several different classes of
- 2:24:41Speaker 21: people under this federal guidance. And we know if you
- 2:24:45Speaker 21: happen to fit into a particular group of people in
- 2:24:49Speaker 21: a particular state, You may be able to get a
- 2:24:52Speaker 21: suppressor using the same form that you would get for
- 2:24:55Speaker 21: any other firearm, and that's called the 4473 form.
- 2:24:57Speaker 4: You fill it out just like anybody else would.
- 2:25:00Speaker 21: For a gun, and then you could actually get it
- 2:25:02Speaker 21: on the same day you could exit. That does not
- 2:25:04Speaker 21: happen in Ohio. That is not happening in most places. However,
- 2:25:08Speaker 21: it does happen in some places. What we really need
- 2:25:11Speaker 21: is for this to be settled. We need one policy
- 2:25:15Speaker 21: for American citizens to be able to do this. And
- 2:25:19Speaker 21: if it's currently in, I guess, If they're saying, oh, well,
- 2:25:23Speaker 21: you can't have this code the way that it's currently
- 2:25:25Speaker 21: written or underneath the tax code, then we need to
- 2:25:28Speaker 21: do away with that for everybody, not just.
- 2:25:30Speaker 3: A few of us.
- 2:25:31Speaker 1: No question about it. I always thought the short barrel
- 2:25:33Speaker 1: rifle was a ban or obligation to fill a format
- 2:25:37Speaker 1: was unconstitutional. It's on its face. What the hell is
- 2:25:39Speaker 1: the difference between a barrel that's 10 inches versus 18
- 2:25:41Speaker 1: or whatever? This rule or this, you are now allowed
- 2:25:46Speaker 1: to purchase short-barreled rifles without having to pay the tax
- 2:25:49Speaker 1: as well, correct? And what else falls under the umbrella
- 2:25:51Speaker 1: of the no longer needing a tax?
- 2:25:54Speaker 21: You've got things like short-barreled shotguns and any other weapons.
- 2:25:57Speaker 21: And so there are several, but really the driving.
- 2:26:00Speaker 3: Force is suppressors. Everybody, everybody is coming out for suppressors.
- 2:26:05Speaker 21: For build rifles, we've seen a huge influx in those,
- 2:26:08Speaker 21: and people like them, and there is no difference between
- 2:26:12Speaker 21: whether something is a 16-inch barrel or whether it's an
- 2:26:15Speaker 21: 11-and-a-half-inch barrel. Come on, it does the exact same thing.
- 2:26:19Speaker 21: But one thing that we know is that if there's
- 2:26:22Speaker 21: no difference, then why do you regulate it differently?
- 2:26:25Speaker 3: And we need to get rid of that.
- 2:26:26Speaker 21: The $ 200 is gone, but we need.
- 2:26:28Speaker 4: That to come off of the NFA registry as well.
- 2:26:31Speaker 3: No doubt.
- 2:26:31Speaker 1: And why should anybody have to fill out a form
- 2:26:33Speaker 1: in order to exercise their constitutionally guaranteed rights? I know
- 2:26:37Speaker 1: you're with me on that one. Jeff Monroe, and you
- 2:26:39Speaker 1: have a huge selection of suppressors out of 22, 3,
- 2:26:42Speaker 1: over 42 between Mason and Lebanon. I know because I've
- 2:26:44Speaker 1: seen them. And you also rent them on the range, right, Jeff?
- 2:26:48Speaker 21: That's exactly right. So if you want to try it
- 2:26:50Speaker 21: out and just see what the difference might be, absolutely
- 2:26:53Speaker 21: stop in any time.
- 2:26:54Speaker 3: You can make that happen.
- 2:26:55Speaker 1: Terrific what you're doing out there. It's a clean range,
- 2:26:58Speaker 1: massive firearm selection, and your prices are outstanding, Jeff. I
- 2:27:01Speaker 1: applaud you, and best of health and love to you
- 2:27:03Speaker 1: and Wendy. I appreciate you being sponsors of the program,
- 2:27:05Speaker 1: and it's an honor to speak on your behalf.
