• 0:04
  Speaker 1: I'm more mega now make America great again than I've
• 0:08
  Speaker 1: ever been.
• 0:09
  Speaker 2: Making mornings great again. First thing today on the Talk
• 0:13
  Speaker 2: Media Network by Joe Thomas.
• 0:34
  Speaker 3: Bless you for letting us be of service to you
• 0:37
  Speaker 3: this morning.
• 0:38
  Speaker 2: What?
• 0:38
  Speaker 4: You're staring at your radio. What did you think?
• 0:40
  Speaker 3: We were going to change our format to all polka
• 0:43
  Speaker 3: music all the time? It's Al at 101.1, all polka
• 0:52
  Speaker 3: all the time. Your favorite polka hits from the 20s,
• 0:55
  Speaker 3: the 30s. All right, enough, enough. Kareem was on the
• 1:00
  Speaker 3: line with us. We'll get our first things. Yes, I
• 1:02
  Speaker 3: know there were elections yesterday. Yes, I know that you
• 1:05
  Speaker 3: don't want to get out of bed, but trust me,
• 1:08
  Speaker 3: it's great out here. But let me get Kareem in
• 1:11
  Speaker 3: here before we get our first thing since we left
• 1:13
  Speaker 3: him on hold when we went to the news.
• 1:16
  Speaker 4: Hey, Kareem, sorry I left you on hold there.
• 1:18
  Speaker 3: We just got into stuff that I couldn't pull myself
• 1:20
  Speaker 3: out of in time to get you any time on
• 1:22
  Speaker 3: the radio.
• 1:23
  Speaker 4: So what's on your mind this morning? How are you feeling?
• 1:26
  Speaker 4: Good morning, Joe.
• 1:29
  Speaker 5: It's Wednesday. It's a Tuesday. Excuse me. Joe, it was
• 1:31
  Speaker 5: great timing. No issues about I was actually crossing a scale, so.
• 1:36
  Speaker 4: It couldn't have been better. There you go.
• 1:39
  Speaker 5: A couple of things, a couple of things to look
• 1:41
  Speaker 5: forward to. Joe, this was the most monitored election in
• 1:45
  Speaker 5: American history. I think I can safely say that. I
• 1:49
  Speaker 5: don't know the final tally, the final numbers. But when
• 1:53
  Speaker 5: our civil rights division says they have a thousand plus
• 1:56
  Speaker 5: monitors at various polling stations throughout the nation, I tend
• 1:59
  Speaker 5: to believe it. So I'm gonna wait for the final number,
• 2:03
  Speaker 5: but I'm hopeful and trusting that they are gonna pull
• 2:09
  Speaker 5: through with that one. Two things, well, there are many things,
• 2:11
  Speaker 5: but two things I wanna point out. There were two
• 2:15
  Speaker 5: ballot measures in various states, Nevada and let's see, North Carolina.
• 2:21
  Speaker 5: They're not typically Republican states, but they did pass voter
• 2:26
  Speaker 5: ID ballot measures.
• 2:28
  Speaker 4: Three states did not.
• 2:29
  Speaker 5: California, Colorado, Arizona. Those are three. I would call them
• 2:35
  Speaker 5: the heart of the axis of anti-Americanism. So we can
• 2:43
  Speaker 5: look for battles with them and not in the legislature,
• 2:46
  Speaker 5: but in the courts themselves. And it can't be the
• 2:49
  Speaker 5: 9th District Court. It'll be some serious battles.
• 2:53
  Speaker 3: Yeah, the 9th Circus Ringmasters will bring the elephants and
• 2:57
  Speaker 3: the dancing girls out, and then they'll just say, no,
• 3:00
  Speaker 3: we decided we don't like it, which they do.
• 3:03
  Speaker 6: Indeed.
• 3:05
  Speaker 5: Now, also, looking back to what the last bit of
• 3:08
  Speaker 5: this lame duck session of Congress is going to be,
• 3:12
  Speaker 5: It's going to be interesting. Massey has said the first
• 3:15
  Speaker 5: measure he's going to bring up will be, well, I'll
• 3:17
  Speaker 5: let him, when he comes back from his vacation, let
• 3:21
  Speaker 5: them go. But, Joe, I look at it this way.
• 3:24
  Speaker 5: Trump has said that he will veto everything until they
• 3:28
  Speaker 5: come to him and.
• 3:28
  Speaker 7: Make a deal.
• 3:30
  Speaker 5: I think it's got to pass backwards. I think they're
• 3:33
  Speaker 5: going to make Trump make a visit to Capitol Hill,
• 3:35
  Speaker 5: and it'll be like when Trump went to China to
• 3:37
  Speaker 5: visit Xi. He won't go alone, and It's going to
• 3:42
  Speaker 5: be interesting.
• 3:43
  Speaker 4: Well, that's the Republicans' biggest fear, Kareem.
• 3:46
  Speaker 3: You just opened the candy box, and we saw the
• 3:50
  Speaker 3: ugly thing at the heart of why a lot of
• 3:53
  Speaker 3: Republicans are scared now, because there's going to be two
• 3:57
  Speaker 3: years of Donald Trump, Hakeem Jeffries, and Chuck Schumer making deals.
• 4:04
  Speaker 3: And let's poke around in that. I appreciate it, my friend.
• 4:07
  Speaker 3: Drive safely.
• 4:09
  Speaker 4: Thank you, Joe. Have a great day.
• 4:10
  Speaker 5: Thanks for taking the call.
• 4:11
  Speaker 4: Always 434-882-4217.
• 4:13
  Speaker 3: We will get into that shortly. But the first things, yes,
• 4:20
  Speaker 3: the midterms. We know there were midterm elections yesterday. And
• 4:24
  Speaker 3: at the final tally, the Republicans have taken quite a
• 4:29
  Speaker 3: paddling at the hands of the Democrats.
• 4:31
  Speaker 4: Fifty-four Democrat senators will be seated.
• 4:35
  Speaker 3: There are still, I think, two races that have not
• 4:39
  Speaker 3: been called in. Yet, 54 Democrats, 44 Republicans, including flips
• 4:48
  Speaker 3: in places like Maine, where Susan Collins was shown the exit.
• 4:54
  Speaker 3: Ken Paxton lost by 12 points in Texas to James Tallarico.
• 5:00
  Speaker 3: Sherrod Brown won by 5 percentage points over John Husted
• 5:05
  Speaker 3: in Ohio. And Roy Cooper took the North Carolina Senate
• 5:10
  Speaker 3: seat Michael Watley wound up 20 points, pardon me, 11
• 5:16
  Speaker 3: points behind him. And in South Carolina, Darlene Nardone, the
• 5:20
  Speaker 3: sister of Lindsey Graham, lost the seat by five percentage
• 5:25
  Speaker 3: points to Annie Andrews there. In the Alaska Senate race,
• 5:31
  Speaker 3: the original Dan Sullivan does lead with 48.5% of the
• 5:34
  Speaker 3: first choice votes. Mary Peltola is second with 47.7%. If
• 5:42
  Speaker 3: they don't get to 50%, I think there's 72% of
• 5:46
  Speaker 3: the votes counted so far, they will go to round
• 5:50
  Speaker 3: two of the ranked choice voting. Other candidates pulled in 7,943,
• 5:58
  Speaker 3: most of them being for, is it Hiles? The other
• 6:06
  Speaker 3: Dan Sullivan only pulled in 1.7%. percent of the vote.
• 6:15
  Speaker 3: Governor's races also in Texas saw for the first time
• 6:21
  Speaker 3: in rememberable history a Democrat getting elected governor of the
• 6:28
  Speaker 3: state of Texas as Gina Hinjosa by seven percentage points.
• 6:36
  Speaker 3: Keisha Lance Bottoms by Nine percentage points over Rick Jackson
• 6:42
  Speaker 3: in Georgia. Maryland, Wes Moore won re-election. And in Ohio,
• 6:47
  Speaker 3: Amy Acton by seven percentage points over Vivek Ramaswamy in
• 6:52
  Speaker 3: that election. In Kansas, it was Cindy Holster over Ty
• 6:56
  Speaker 3: Masterson as well.
• 7:01
  Speaker 4: You know, it's true.
• 7:02
  Speaker 8: Difficult times have a way of focusing us. We have
• 7:05
  Speaker 8: to think about what matters most when it comes to
• 7:07
  Speaker 8: our spending, our health care. This is why so many
• 7:10
  Speaker 8: people are joining MediShare right now. MediShare is a trusted
• 7:15
  Speaker 8: way to save up to 50% on your monthly health
• 7:17
  Speaker 8: care costs. More than 400,000 people have already made the switch.

• 7:29
  Speaker 8: can save you a lot of money. The typical family

  Speaker 9: Did you know that healthy arteries make a gas? Yes,
• 8:08
  Speaker 9: actually three known gases. Hi, I'm Dr. Mitch. And nitric
• 8:13
  Speaker 9: oxide is a gas that's readily made all day long
• 8:18
  Speaker 9: to keep our arteries open by relaxing the blood vessel walls.
• 8:23
  Speaker 9: By doing this, our circulation is increased, bringing blood, oxygen,
• 8:28
  Speaker 9: and nutrients to every part of your body. Both age
• 8:32
  Speaker 9: and poor diet can lead to a loss of this
• 8:36
  Speaker 9: precious gas, and in turn, blood pressure can go up,
• 8:39
  Speaker 9: energy can go down, and you can get tingling in
• 8:42
  Speaker 9: your hands and feet. Well, our product, Ultimate Nitric Oxide,
• 8:47

  Speaker 12: Every year, more American adults die from vaccine-preventable diseases than
• 9:37
  Speaker 12: from breast cancer, traffic accidents, or AIDS. Vaccines like the
• 9:41
  Speaker 12: one for pneumococcal disease can protect adults from illnesses that
• 9:44
  Speaker 12: can cause missed days of work, hospitalization, and even death.
• 9:49
  Speaker 12: Pneumococcal disease is an infection that can lead to pneumonia, meningitis,
• 9:53
  Speaker 12: or even a severe blood infection. That's just one example
• 9:56
  Speaker 12: of an infection that can spread from person to person.
• 9:59
  Speaker 12: Getting vaccinated can help protect you and those close to you.

• 10:10
  Speaker 12: all their recommended vaccines. Now I'm urging you to speak
• 10:14
  Speaker 12: with your doctor to find out which vaccines you need.
• 10:17
  Speaker 12: For more information about the vaccines that are recommended for
• 10:20
  Speaker 12: adults and the diseases they prevent, like HPV, whooping cough, tetanus,
• 10:24
  Speaker 12: and shingles, visit adultvaccination.org. That's www.adultvaccination.org.

  Speaker 14: If you came across someone struggling with hunger, how would
• 11:05
  Speaker 14: you recognize them?
• 11:07
  Speaker 15: By their clothes?
• 11:08
  Speaker 4: Their age?
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: The way they speak?
• 11:11
  Speaker 16: Would you notice the 16-year-old boy who got his first job?
• 11:14
  Speaker 17: Not for extra spending money, but to help feed his
• 11:17
  Speaker 17: little sisters.
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: Or a mother who's in between jobs and sometimes goes
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: to bed hungry so her kids can have dinner. Or
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: a 14-year-old girl who signs up to every.
• 11:27
  Speaker 14: After-school activity not to make friends, but just to get
• 11:30

• 12:05
  Speaker 16: First Amendment. Freedom of religion. Freedom of speech. Freedom of
• 12:09
  Speaker 16: the press. Freedom to peaceably assemble. Freedom to petition the government.
• 12:14
  Speaker 16: Which freedom can you live without? Fortunately, the First Amendment
• 12:18
  Speaker 16: doesn't make you choose. It protects all five freedoms equally.

• 12:34
  Speaker 17: I love these nachos.
• 12:37
  Speaker 11: I love our kickball league.
• 12:40
  Speaker 18: I love this guy.

  Speaker 20: drunk driving. A message from NHTSA and the Ad Council.
• 12:55
  Speaker 18: Radio.
• 12:55
  Speaker 7: It's on.
• 12:56
  Speaker 11: It's on.
• 13:12
  Speaker 2: Talk radio just the way your mother used to make it.
• 13:15
  Speaker 2: First thing today by Joe Thomas on the Talk Media Network.
• 13:19
  Speaker 3: So let's on this Ted's D morning, let's poke around
• 13:24
  Speaker 3: because it was on my list of things to bring up.
• 13:27
  Speaker 3: Is the gut-wrenching fear that I think is unspoken amongst
• 13:33
  Speaker 3: Republicans right now is that Trump is going to sit
• 13:38
  Speaker 3: down and say, okay, let's see what you got.
• 13:42
  Speaker 4: What can you help me do?
• 13:46
  Speaker 3: And this is the frustrating part for a lot of
• 13:50
  Speaker 3: the ideological politicians, the ones who, you know, it's not
• 13:56
  Speaker 3: about doing things. It's about staying true to whatever plank
• 14:00
  Speaker 3: on a platform might have been written long before anyone
• 14:04
  Speaker 3: had any say in it. And there are no things
• 14:08
  Speaker 3: that are good or bad in isolation from one another.
• 14:12
  Speaker 3: So before you begin that idea that I'm saying being capitulative, appeasing, isn't...
• 14:23
  Speaker 3: But we're going to face at least one government shutdown.
• 14:27
  Speaker 3: There is tell, and I think there are pieces of
• 14:33
  Speaker 3: parliamentary order that are being put together to try to
• 14:36
  Speaker 3: get Mike Johnson and John Thune to agree to not
• 14:44
  Speaker 3: legislate in the lame duck session, to not bring up
• 14:48
  Speaker 3: the SAVE Act again. And if they do, the Democrats
• 14:54
  Speaker 3: are going to rail about it. The Democrats are going
• 14:58
  Speaker 3: to rail about it in the Senate. The Democrats are
• 15:01
  Speaker 3: going to rail on TV. And it's actually probably going
• 15:06
  Speaker 3: to make it harder for next year's and the years
• 15:08
  Speaker 3: after that, Republicans, because this will be the narrative. This
• 15:14
  Speaker 3: election was in many ways, shape or form, a reminder.
• 15:18
  Speaker 3: This was the media reflexing itself. The media had gone
• 15:24
  Speaker 3: into rehab. The media had been injured because people had
• 15:30
  Speaker 3: seen it for what it was and stopped listening to it.
• 15:34
  Speaker 3: So it It went to rehab. It got cleaned up.
• 15:37
  Speaker 4: It detoxed. And came back in a new form. A
• 15:43
  Speaker 4: form that looked more like you. Bloggers and cloggers and
• 15:50
  Speaker 4: vloggers all over the place.
• 15:52
  Speaker 3: Instead of three news desks, there were 300,000 news desks.
• 15:59
  Speaker 3: And unlike in the conservative circles where There is plenty
• 16:04
  Speaker 3: of room for debate and discussion because that's a core
• 16:07
  Speaker 3: conservative principle that before you make a decision on something,
• 16:11
  Speaker 3: there should be some sort of discussion and or debate
• 16:14
  Speaker 3: on it. Which therefore makes it look like you're open-minded
• 16:23
  Speaker 3: to something other than what your opponent says or whatever
• 16:27
  Speaker 3: it is that is considered in the pop culture a weakness.
• 16:31
  Speaker 3: Listening to somebody is a weakness. It's allowing for the
• 16:35
  Speaker 3: fact that they may have a different idea than you.
• 16:38
  Speaker 3: But at the end of the day, differing ideas don't
• 16:40
  Speaker 3: matter a hill of beans if you have a government
• 16:42
  Speaker 3: that isn't trying to authoritarianly dictate terms to their citizens.
• 16:50
  Speaker 3: So the ideological Republicans are out there very, very scared
• 16:56
  Speaker 3: of something. And we've talked about third parties a lot.
• 16:59
  Speaker 3: What happens if the Republicans and Democrats... become the third
• 17:05
  Speaker 3: and fourth party. And the party that comes out of
• 17:10
  Speaker 3: this two-year cycle of Trump and Jeffries and Schumer leaves
• 17:18
  Speaker 3: the radicals like Hassan Piker and Abdul El-Sayed and Zorhan
• 17:25
  Speaker 3: Mamdani on the left-hand side of the road, the curb
• 17:30
  Speaker 3: on the left-hand side of the road, and the ultra-right
• 17:41
  Speaker 3: wing of the Republican Party, the House Freedom Caucus, if
• 17:47
  Speaker 3: you will, and I'm not saying I agree or disagree,
• 17:50
  Speaker 3: but what if they push them off to the right-hand
• 17:54
  Speaker 3: curve of the road and create this new centrist, we're
• 17:57
  Speaker 3: the government and we're here to help you party? Trump's
• 18:03
  Speaker 3: already said many times, the president has said many times,
• 18:06
  Speaker 3: I just want to help Americans. Is that the role?
• 18:10
  Speaker 3: How do you explain that? Because that's got too many
• 18:12
  Speaker 3: loopholes in that word. Help us by protecting our God-given
• 18:17
  Speaker 3: rights or help us by giving us stuff. It's too ambiguous.
• 18:22
  Speaker 3: That's the fear this morning in a lot of your
• 18:26
  Speaker 3: Republican friends is that Trump and Jeffries and Schumer will
• 18:31
  Speaker 3: create this centrist, I'm from the government and we're here
• 18:35
  Speaker 3: to help party, leaving the left and the right of
• 18:42
  Speaker 3: the two political parties sort of sitting on the curb
• 18:45
  Speaker 3: trying to figure out where their jacks went. I'm talking
• 18:50
  Speaker 3: about the Andy Biggs's and the, as I said, Abdul
• 18:58
  Speaker 3: El-Sayed's and the AOC's And the Jim Jordans, well, Jim
• 19:04
  Speaker 3: Jordans sort of walk towards the middle. And the reward
• 19:11
  Speaker 3: politically will be a big bag of other people's money
• 19:14
  Speaker 3: that you get to keep playing with if you move
• 19:17
  Speaker 3: into this new, we're from the government, we're here to
• 19:20
  Speaker 3: help party. That's the underlying fear in a lot of
• 19:24
  Speaker 3: your especially ardently ideological Republican friends who have always been
• 19:30
  Speaker 3: disquieted by Trump's ability to go off script, to not
• 19:38
  Speaker 3: speak of things as ardently as they would expect him
• 19:41
  Speaker 3: to or not hold positions. These are the same folks
• 19:46
  Speaker 3: that bristle when you point to a lot of things
• 19:48
  Speaker 3: that Ronald Reagan didn't accomplish. in his eight years as
• 19:51
  Speaker 3: president that he campaigned on. Just as a warning, just
• 19:56
  Speaker 3: so you know, they're out there. Our friend James is
• 19:59
  Speaker 3: fourth generation. A lot of presidents, a lot of midterm
• 20:02
  Speaker 3: elections have come and gone since 1961. I was I
• 20:06
  Speaker 3: meant I meant to go and count how many midterm
• 20:09
  Speaker 3: elections there had been since the JCS Gold folks opened
• 20:14
  Speaker 3: up their shop in 1961. But it's a lot of them, James.
• 20:18
  Speaker 3: How are you doing this morning, sir?
• 20:20
  Speaker 22: I'm doing well, Joe, and gold and silver are responding
• 20:23
  Speaker 22: to a little bit of this fear from last night
• 20:27
  Speaker 22: of just uncertainty on what's ahead. And gold and silver
• 20:30
  Speaker 22: are responding in the green pretty big so far today.
• 20:33
  Speaker 22: Gold is up almost 3%, up $ 112 to $ 4, 042, snapping
• 20:35
  Speaker 22: right back above $ 4, 000 today.
• 20:42
  Speaker 4: Overnight.
• 20:42
  Speaker 22: Silver up even bigger, which is typical, you know, that
• 20:46
  Speaker 22: silver has a bigger move than gold, but up.
• 20:48
  Speaker 4: Four and a half percent to $ 52. You know, yesterday.
• 20:52
  Speaker 22: It dipped below 50, but again, snapped right back above.
• 20:56
  Speaker 22: And a lot of our clients were taking advantage of
• 20:59
  Speaker 22: that discount yesterday. And it's paying off so far.
• 21:02
  Speaker 4: And certainly that is expected. So it was the.
• 21:07
  Speaker 3: 87th Congress in 1961. It is currently the 119th, kids.
• 21:14
  Speaker 4: You go do the math.
• 21:16
  Speaker 3: But while you're doing that, call these folks at jcsgold.com,
• 21:20
  Speaker 3: or that's their website. The phone number is 434-979-COIN. And
• 21:26
  Speaker 3: ask them, say, well, this is tumultuous. We don't even
• 21:28
  Speaker 3: know what we don't know yet. What should we be doing?
• 21:31
  Speaker 3: Because since 1961, they've seen a few of these incidents
• 21:36
  Speaker 3: come by. And they have some expertise in that process. James,
• 21:40
  Speaker 3: God bless you, sir. And you have a great morning. Thanks, Joe.
• 21:46
  Speaker 4: You too.
• 21:47
  Speaker 3: 434-882-4217 is how we get here. And I know you're
• 21:50
  Speaker 3: sitting there saying, how is he doing this? Well, part

  Speaker 3: of it is a lot of caffeine. Because we were
• 21:57
  Speaker 3: up until about 11 o'clock last night with election results.
• 22:02
  Speaker 9: Did you know that healthy arteries make a gas? Yes,
• 22:07
  Speaker 9: actually three known gases. Hi, I'm Dr. Mitch, and nitric
• 22:12
  Speaker 9: oxide is a gas that's readily made all day long
• 22:17
  Speaker 9: to keep our arteries open by relaxing the blood vessel walls.
• 22:21
  Speaker 9: By doing this, our circulation is increased, bringing blood, oxygen,
• 22:27
  Speaker 9: and nutrients to every part of your body. Both age
• 22:31
  Speaker 9: and poor diet can lead to a loss of this
• 22:35
  Speaker 9: precious gas, and in turn, blood pressure can go up,
• 22:38
  Speaker 9: energy can go down, and you can get tingling in
• 22:41

  Speaker 2: First thing today by Joe Thomas on the Talk Media Network.
• 28:25
  Speaker 4: I like how Marcy thinks this morning. Marcy listening to us. Oh,
• 28:30
  Speaker 4: you know what? Marcy never heard me read her text.
• 28:33
  Speaker 3: She's listening to us this morning in the Chicagolands, the
• 28:39
  Speaker 3: JOL feed. They finish up with us and go to
• 28:42
  Speaker 3: their show at 6.30. You'll have to hear it on
• 28:45
  Speaker 3: podcast form, which, by the way, you can get at
• 28:47
  Speaker 3: Joe Thomas in the morning. Choose your distribution nexus and
• 28:52
  Speaker 3: they'll tell you when we post new stuff and they'll
• 28:54
  Speaker 3: send it out to you. They're also at JoeThomasInTheMorning.com.
• 28:59
  Speaker 4: Still enter. Chicago is one of those places.
• 29:01
  Speaker 3: We've got tickets to the Trans-Siberian Orchestra show in the
• 29:07
  Speaker 3: Windy City on their 30th anniversary tour and plenty of
• 29:10
  Speaker 3: other places. But she says, Joe, what if this is
• 29:14
  Speaker 3: exactly what Donald Trump wants to do with the Democrats?
• 29:18
  Speaker 3: If the president brings in Hakeem Jeffries and Chuck Schumer
• 29:21
  Speaker 3: and gives them everything they want, couldn't it be used
• 29:25
  Speaker 3: to make them look bad because the process will turn
• 29:29
  Speaker 3: out badly for them because they won't be able to
• 29:32
  Speaker 3: achieve their goals? Well, I see where you're going with this, Marcy,
• 29:37
  Speaker 3: and I like your thought on this. And again, it
• 29:40
  Speaker 3: goes back to the fear the Republicans have is that
• 29:43
  Speaker 3: Donald Trump, the dealmaker, will start making deals with the Democrats. Remember,
• 29:53
  Speaker 3: the Democrats are the party of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps.
• 29:57
  Speaker 3: So any deals the president is going to have to
• 30:00
  Speaker 3: do with Congress are going to happen.
• 30:02
  Speaker 4: And maybe this will be.
• 30:03
  Speaker 3: How the president has to end the war, since these
• 30:06
  Speaker 3: guys were all endorsed by the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Court
• 30:10
  Speaker 3: for election.
• 30:14
  Speaker 4: What, you never heard that? Oh, yeah.
• 30:16
  Speaker 3: It's about a month before the election. They all went
• 30:19
  Speaker 3: out and said the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Court, the muscle
• 30:23
  Speaker 3: behind the Ayatollah and the Council of Experts, sent videos
• 30:33
  Speaker 3: out to Americans saying, vote for anyone who opposes President Trump.
• 30:39
  Speaker 3: But your point being is give Hakeem Jeffries and Chuck
• 30:42
  Speaker 3: Schumer everything they want and it'll blow up in their face. Unfortunately,
• 30:46
  Speaker 3: history has proven to us it'll blow up in our face.
• 30:52
  Speaker 3: We're already in a perilous time where a lot of
• 30:55
  Speaker 3: Luigi Mangione's have been had their fuse set. And the
• 31:05
  Speaker 3: ticking you hear in the background are all these individual
• 31:08
  Speaker 3: time bombers, because now they.
• 31:12
  Speaker 21: Feel like, yeah, we got the guys in who are
• 31:16
  Speaker 21: going to make me rich again. I'm not going to
• 31:18
  Speaker 21: have to worry about food and clothing and housing and work,
• 31:22
  Speaker 21: and I'll be able to.
• 31:25
  Speaker 3: And it's not going to work out. And we told
• 31:27
  Speaker 3: them it wasn't going to work out that way, but
• 31:29
  Speaker 3: they voted anyway.
• 31:30
  Speaker 4: Bless their heart.
• 31:32
  Speaker 3: And the peril is just like with the UnitedHealthcare CEO,
• 31:38
  Speaker 3: who lovingly jumped into the hot tub with Barack Obama
• 31:44
  Speaker 3: over Obamacare. And it cost him his life because he
• 31:53
  Speaker 3: Mangione believed that Obamacare made it so he didn't have
• 31:57
  Speaker 3: to worry about getting health care. And then he tried to,
• 32:00
  Speaker 3: I think it was his mom, but tried to get
• 32:02
  Speaker 3: his mom health care and they wouldn't give it to
• 32:04
  Speaker 3: her or they wouldn't pay for it anyway.
• 32:09
  Speaker 4: And so he killed the guy because he had.
• 32:13
  Speaker 3: Been promised health care insurance. So when he got health
• 32:19
  Speaker 3: care insurance, he thought that equaled health care. Because these people,
• 32:25
  Speaker 3: these obfuscators, these cunning linguists who go around and play
• 32:30
  Speaker 3: with the English language don't realize the peril, the warranty
• 32:34
  Speaker 3: that comes along with these easily made, easily broken promises.
• 32:42
  Speaker 3: I mean, I argue that half of the time that
• 32:45
  Speaker 3: you and I spend together is in the process of
• 32:53
  Speaker 3: trying to tell people, don't believe them.
• 32:56
  Speaker 4: They're lying to you.
• 32:59
  Speaker 3: I mean, sure, you can even start with the old joke,
• 33:01
  Speaker 3: how do you know a politician is lying?
• 33:05
  Speaker 4: His lips are moving. Or hers, or hers, that's right.
• 33:09
  Speaker 4: Or theirs.
• 33:11
  Speaker 3: Don't want to be misgendered, rather. That would be a
• 33:17
  Speaker 3: fun bit, though. The misgendered beauty pageant. Guys have to
• 33:24
  Speaker 3: wear evening gowns and bikinis and the girls, you know,
• 33:28
  Speaker 3: have to do athletic feats of strength. Could be, could
• 33:33
  Speaker 3: just be fun to do. You'd have to get, you know,
• 33:37
  Speaker 3: willing participants who.
• 33:38
  Speaker 4: Are going to be, oh yeah, you're just making fun
• 33:40
  Speaker 4: of us.
• 33:46
  Speaker 3: But the people who hide behind this rhetoric of we're
• 33:49
  Speaker 3: going to make it so you're not poor, Bernie Sanders
• 33:51
  Speaker 3: and the billionaire tax. And all the attitude that there
• 34:03
  Speaker 3: are some rich people that have not given you the
• 34:13
  Speaker 3: money you deserve. And it's sad because I understand being poor.
• 34:25
  Speaker 3: I've spent most of my life poor. I don't know
• 34:30
  Speaker 3: where I'm going to get two nickels to rub together.
• 34:32
  Speaker 4: We own a company.
• 34:33
  Speaker 3: That doesn't mean I have money to go to the
• 34:35
  Speaker 3: grocery store. So they prey on people who are scared.
• 34:50
  Speaker 3: They prey on that fear. And then when it turns bad,
• 34:55
  Speaker 3: ask Gabrielle Giffords.
• 34:58
  Speaker 4: I'm sorry, is that too soon? Mark Kelly will call
• 35:03
  Speaker 4: me and say, come up there and I'm going to
• 35:06
  Speaker 4: teach you what for.
• 35:13
  Speaker 3: By the way, Californians, for all you can say about them,
• 35:17
  Speaker 3: you know, defeating the billionaire tax.
• 35:21
  Speaker 4: Prop 40.
• 35:22
  Speaker 3: So, you know, you count on all the things that
• 35:28
  Speaker 3: and this is the kind of weird bit, is that
• 35:31
  Speaker 3: conservative principles like voting against the billionaire's tax in a
• 35:36
  Speaker 3: place like California can be successful. And politicians can't. This
• 35:45
  Speaker 3: is why I don't hang my hat on a lot
• 35:47
  Speaker 3: of politicians, because they are the ones, this is the expression,
• 35:53
  Speaker 3: resting defeat from the jaws of victory. You're in California,
• 35:58
  Speaker 3: and a bill that would intentionally go after billionaires, it
• 36:04
  Speaker 3: says so in its name, and it loses. How do
• 36:07
  Speaker 3: you lose in that state if you're a conservative unless
• 36:10
  Speaker 3: you're afraid to pick up the ideas and the attitudes
• 36:18
  Speaker 3: and speak to them boldly with compassion?
• 36:22
  Speaker 4: I've told you this before. I don't want to.
• 36:24
  Speaker 3: I don't want to make abortion illegal. I want to
• 36:26
  Speaker 3: make it unheard of. I want to make the very
• 36:29
  Speaker 3: concept of unwanted pregnancies be an absolute mystery. What are those?
• 36:36
  Speaker 3: Why wouldn't somebody want a pregnancy? That's why you have Congress. Well,
• 36:43
  Speaker 3: not the U.S. Congress, but the Kama Sutra joyful irony
• 36:49
  Speaker 3: of the fact that they refer to intercourse as engaging
• 36:52
  Speaker 3: in Congress. And yes, there are things that we would
• 36:57
  Speaker 3: like to kill before they get born as they go
• 37:00
  Speaker 3: through that Congress as well. But giving Hakeem Jeffries and
• 37:07
  Speaker 3: Chuck Schumer everything they want is not going to help
• 37:12
  Speaker 3: because it will wind up just like with Gabby Giffords
• 37:16
  Speaker 3: and Luigi Mangione and all these folks who.
• 37:20
  Speaker 4: Promised things or Yeah, the lawyers.
• 37:24
  Speaker 3: This is the cutesy lawyers. Oh, I didn't promise that.
• 37:27
  Speaker 3: You misunderstood me. Oh, see, it's on you because you
• 37:31
  Speaker 3: misunderstood them when they talked in these strange flowing sentences like,
• 37:36
  Speaker 3: we're going to get every American health care insurance. Americans
• 37:40
  Speaker 3: shouldn't be afraid about not being able to access health care.
• 37:44
  Speaker 3: So we're going to force them to buy insurance.
• 37:48
  Speaker 4: Meanwhile, Louis G.
• 37:49
  Speaker 3: Mangione and people like him hear, oh, I can get
• 37:54
  Speaker 3: health care now. And then when they can't, they get
• 37:57
  Speaker 3: a little salty.

  Speaker 9: Considered by most, optimized curcumin is one of the few
• 39:07
  Speaker 9: bioavailable and highly absorbable curcumin products on the market. Hi,
• 39:13
  Speaker 9: I'm Dr. Mitch. Since most chronic diseases have inflammation, our
• 39:18
  Speaker 9: optimized curcumin seems to be a perfect addition to any
• 39:22
  Speaker 9: nutritional program. It makes sense to me that preventing or
• 39:27
  Speaker 9: reducing inflammation is a key component to our overall health.
• 39:32
  Speaker 9: The Mayo Clinic found that curcumin can decrease swelling and
• 39:36
  Speaker 9: inflammation has antioxidant properties and research suggests that curcumin can
• 39:42
  Speaker 9: prevent cancer or at least slow the spread of cancer
• 39:46
  Speaker 9: and in many instances make chemotherapy more effective. It protects
• 39:51

  Speaker 25: warn you about telephone scammers pretending to be government employees.
• 40:10
  Speaker 25: Some of these scammers may say threatening things like you
• 40:13
  Speaker 25: will be arrested if you don't make payments or provide
• 40:17
  Speaker 25: personal information. Do not fall for these tricks. These calls
• 40:21
  Speaker 25: are not from us. Real Social Security employees will never
• 40:26
  Speaker 25: threaten you for information or money. If you receive a
• 40:29
  Speaker 25: call like this, hang up. Never give the caller your
• 40:33
  Speaker 25: personal information, like your Social Security number or bank account,
• 40:38
  Speaker 25: or send money in any form, cash, gift cards, wire transfers,
• 40:43
  Speaker 25: or prepaid debit cards. Report the call to our law
• 40:46
  Speaker 25: enforcement arm the Office of the Inspector General at oig.ssa.gov.
• 40:54
  Speaker 25: Share this information with your friends and family.
• 40:59
  Speaker 20: Hi, everybody.
• 40:59
  Speaker 11: I'm Jack Hanna.
• 41:00
  Speaker 7: Since I was a boy growing up on a farm
• 41:02
  Speaker 7: in Tennessee, I've been fascinated with animals. I'm not only
• 41:05
  Speaker 7: in awe of their beauty and kindness, but also their
• 41:07
  Speaker 7: tireless work ethic. Just look at the birds who gather
• 41:10
  Speaker 7: supplies to build nests or Swiss foxes.
• 41:13
  Speaker 4: Who work hard to provide for their young.
• 41:14
  Speaker 7: Or penguins, who travel up to 500 miles to secure
• 41:17
  Speaker 7: food for their families. Or bush babies, whose impressive jump
• 41:21
  Speaker 7: allows them to navigate the trees and the wild in
• 41:23
  Speaker 7: search of fruit. This remarkable work ethic is shared by
• 41:26
  Speaker 7: our best friends, the canines. We know dogs are our
• 41:29
  Speaker 7: wonderful pets at home, but because of their acute senses,
• 41:32
  Speaker 7: they also perform life-saving work every day. Dogs keep us
• 41:35
  Speaker 7: safe at airports. They comfort returning veterans, some of whom
• 41:38
  Speaker 7: suffer from PTS. They work with diabetics, alerting them when
• 41:41
  Speaker 7: there's a change in their blood chemistry. Working dogs have
• 41:44
  Speaker 7: a variety of highly trained roles that contribute to society
• 41:46
  Speaker 7: and help those in need. So please join me and
• 41:49
  Speaker 7: American Humane in supporting our heroic working dogs and all
• 41:52
  Speaker 7: the amazing animals on this planet we inhabit together. Go

  Speaker 16: Uh-oh, Brad's buzzed.
• 42:01
  Speaker 6: Oh, yeah?
• 42:02
  Speaker 4: Yeah, he's starting with the woots.
• 42:04
  Speaker 17: And now a speech.
• 42:07
  Speaker 16: I just want to say that friendship is about heart.
• 42:10
  Speaker 4: Heart and brain. Who's with me?
• 42:13
  Speaker 16: Good thing is, he knows when he's buzzed. And my
• 42:15
  Speaker 16: brain is saying, when it's time to go home, somebody
• 42:18
  Speaker 16: call me a ride.
• 42:19
  Speaker 15: Love that guy.
• 42:20
  Speaker 7: Me too.
• 42:21
  Speaker 20: Know your buzzed warning signs? Call for a ride when
• 42:24
  Speaker 20: it's time to go home. Buzz driving is drunk driving.
• 42:29
  Speaker 13: Did you know that more than half our household energy
• 42:31
  Speaker 13: costs go to heating and cooling? Energy efficiency isn't just
• 42:35
  Speaker 13: good for the environment. It means lower utility bills, too.
• 42:40
  Speaker 13: One way to reduce your energy waste is a home
• 42:42
  Speaker 13: energy assessment. Your utility company can help, or you can
• 42:46
  Speaker 13: learn how to do it yourself at energysavers.gov. That's energysavers.gov.
• 42:52
  Speaker 13: You'll learn to look for air leaks around windows and doors,
• 42:55
  Speaker 13: check ducts for holes, and improve your insulation. Another time
• 42:59
  Speaker 13: to cut energy costs is when you shop for a
• 43:01
  Speaker 13: new appliance. Look for the Energy Star logo and read
• 43:04
  Speaker 13: the Energy Guide label. And there are day-to-day things you
• 43:08
  Speaker 13: can do. Lower your thermostat in winter and raise it
• 43:11
  Speaker 13: in the summer. Close fireplace dampers when they're not in use.
• 43:15
  Speaker 13: And keep air filters clean. For more tips on saving

  Speaker 14: As a family member or friend, you may be the
• 43:32
  Speaker 14: first to notice when a veteran you love has been
• 43:35
  Speaker 14: going through changes. Things like withdrawing, drinking more, or increased
• 43:41
  Speaker 14: anger could be a sign of a larger health concern.
• 43:44
  Speaker 14: But help is available. Listen to hundreds of inspiring stories

• 44:12
  Speaker 2: First thing today by Joe Thomas on the Talk Media Network.
• 44:19
  Speaker 4: Yeah, we're here and we're having a good time.
• 44:22
  Speaker 9: Why?
• 44:22
  Speaker 3: Because God gives us our rights, not James Tallarico.
• 44:27
  Speaker 4: And they're going to try.
• 44:28
  Speaker 3: And this is why I said if you're looking for
• 44:31
  Speaker 3: something proactive to do this, Ted's Tea Morning, go make
• 44:35
  Speaker 3: sure that these legal defense funds like the Founding Freedoms
• 44:38
  Speaker 3: Law Center that are going to be in court against
• 44:41
  Speaker 3: this abortion amendment, get your money because they need it
• 44:45
  Speaker 3: more than the political parties do. Because they're the ones
• 44:49
  Speaker 3: that will take the Bill of Rights and go into
• 44:51
  Speaker 3: court and win. They are our cavalry. And they are
• 44:58
  Speaker 3: the ones who deserve our support, not the political parties.
• 45:03
  Speaker 3: There are plenty of Mark Cubans and Michael Bloombergs and
• 45:07
  Speaker 3: George Soroses out there for both political parties to get
• 45:11
  Speaker 3: money from. Bob in Moscow is back. We haven't heard
• 45:15
  Speaker 3: from Bob in a while.
• 45:17
  Speaker 4: Good morning, Bob. How have you been, my friend? Doing good.
• 45:22
  Speaker 6: And I believe Marcy has the right idea that Trump
• 45:27
  Speaker 6: should go one step further. When all the Democrats vote
• 45:34
  Speaker 6: in the House and the Senate vote for a bill, Trump,
• 45:38
  Speaker 6: as he's signing it, Before he signed it, he said,
• 45:41
  Speaker 6: this is what all the Democrats and all the House
• 45:48
  Speaker 6: of Representatives voted for. And voted for is, this is
• 45:54
  Speaker 6: what the majority of you people voted for, so I'm
• 45:57
  Speaker 6: going to sign it because that's what you want. And
• 46:00
  Speaker 6: you should read off some of the pork belly things
• 46:02
  Speaker 6: that certain Democrats put in it. And Hakeem Jeffries, for
• 46:06
  Speaker 6: his city, just... got them $ 10 million for wokeness, whatever
• 46:15
  Speaker 6: it is, and make a big point of it. I'm
• 46:18
  Speaker 6: signing exactly what you guys wanted. Now you have it. Plus,
• 46:23
  Speaker 6: in the next two years, if he does that and
• 46:26
  Speaker 6: the economy tanks, yes, we're going to suffer for a
• 46:28
  Speaker 6: little bit, but America is great. And when the next
• 46:32
  Speaker 6: election comes, they'll definitely elect a Republican president who to
• 46:38
  Speaker 6: turn things around because you don't want him to be
• 46:42
  Speaker 6: mad and hate them and not do anything because that'll
• 46:46
  Speaker 6: just piss people off more. And that'll cause a Democrat
• 46:50
  Speaker 6: to be elected president. Then we'll have a Democrat controlling everything.
• 46:54
  Speaker 3: See, here's the thing that I think is the, you know,
• 46:58
  Speaker 3: if there is to be a postmortem, if they're of
• 47:02
  Speaker 3: this situation. I mean, keep in mind, and this is
• 47:05
  Speaker 3: a point of order that's got to ring out from
• 47:07
  Speaker 3: this program.
• 47:08
  Speaker 4: We're first here. I mean, the other people are still sleeping.
• 47:11
  Speaker 3: They'll come in and they'll, you know, maybe some of
• 47:14
  Speaker 3: them will rip off what we said here, but we are.
• 47:17
  Speaker 4: First on the line.
• 47:19
  Speaker 3: And if Californians, Californians can vote no to a billionaire's
• 47:27
  Speaker 3: tax and see the sense of in voting no for
• 47:31
  Speaker 3: a billionaire's tax. And not even, you know, a little bit,
• 47:37
  Speaker 3: it's 55-45, Bob. If Californians can see the sense in this,
• 47:42
  Speaker 3: what is the matter with the rank and file Republican
• 47:46
  Speaker 3: who can't make these cases? Somebody needs to go and
• 47:49
  Speaker 3: find the people who ran the vote no for 40
• 47:53
  Speaker 3: campaign and say, you need to teach the rest of
• 47:57
  Speaker 3: the conservatives how to message. because I said this yesterday
• 48:03
  Speaker 3: on the air, I want better Democrats too. I want
• 48:06
  Speaker 3: better Democrats who understand what your rights and responsibilities are. Sure,
• 48:10
  Speaker 3: you want to have a safety net. I think some
• 48:12
  Speaker 3: people have agreed to safety nets, but to what point
• 48:15
  Speaker 3: and to what distance? And let's take an accounting of
• 48:19
  Speaker 3: the damage that the safety net has done to this point.
• 48:22
  Speaker 3: But if it loses 55-45, amongst Californians, then the ideas
• 48:31
  Speaker 3: of conservatism are alive. That's that heartbeat that's, you know,
• 48:36
  Speaker 3: in the grievous crash victim, you're hearing.
• 48:39
  Speaker 16: Beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep.
• 48:42
  Speaker 4: Doctor, it's still alive.
• 48:44
  Speaker 3: It is because, you know, removed from these political candidates who, honestly,
• 48:50
  Speaker 3: this election is a lot of pox on both your houses.
• 48:53
  Speaker 3: You know, Paxton loses in... Paxton loses because half the
• 48:57
  Speaker 3: Republicans believe he's, you know, a corrupt, you know, pedophile,
• 49:02
  Speaker 3: you know, whatever else he was called during the primary.
• 49:05
  Speaker 3: So why would I vote for him? I don't want
• 49:07
  Speaker 3: him as governor. I'll take my chances within Joseph.
• 49:12
  Speaker 6: Yep, 100% correct. The Republican Party has to get back
• 49:18
  Speaker 6: to what concerns people deliberately. most that's why a lot
• 49:21
  Speaker 6: of the democratic candidates won because they got back to
• 49:25
  Speaker 6: what the people are complaining about and i said average joe.
• 49:30
  Speaker 3: Right and and no offense i know you don't mean
• 49:32
  Speaker 3: me when you say average joe um but uh but
• 49:36
  Speaker 3: the and why isn't it the average bob But beyond that,
• 49:41
  Speaker 3: we said this weeks ago about the economy and Iran
• 49:46
  Speaker 3: and what's going on there. All the president has to
• 49:49
  Speaker 3: do is what FDR did, sit down with the American
• 49:53
  Speaker 3: people and say, here's why we did this, here's what
• 49:57
  Speaker 3: we're doing, and here's why it is important that you
• 50:00
  Speaker 3: support it because these are the things we're trying to accomplish.
• 50:04
  Speaker 3: And So, yeah, I'm going to call the president out
• 50:09
  Speaker 3: for not doing more, because when he was holding these rallies,
• 50:14
  Speaker 3: you know, he would say, we're going to win this
• 50:16
  Speaker 3: war in Iran.
• 50:17
  Speaker 4: Great. Why did we start the war with Iran? I
• 50:21
  Speaker 4: get it. I think you get it.
• 50:22
  Speaker 3: But the average American who's trying just to get on
• 50:26
  Speaker 3: with his day, unless they're lucky enough, blessed enough, to
• 50:29
  Speaker 3: have found a station that's carrying this program hasn't heard
• 50:33
  Speaker 3: the whole bit about Jefferson and the radical Islamists and
• 50:37
  Speaker 3: this battle that's been going on with radical Islam for
• 50:41
  Speaker 3: 240 years of this country. I mean, we're about to,
• 50:45
  Speaker 3: next week, celebrate the anniversary of the birth of the
• 50:48
  Speaker 3: United States Marine Corps, 251 years of URA in the
• 50:53
  Speaker 3: halls of Triple E.
• 50:56
  Speaker 6: One quick thing, I don't know if anyone's pointed this
• 50:58
  Speaker 6: out yet, Watch the borders. The Democrats in control of
• 51:04
  Speaker 6: Congress and Senate, they're going to bring all these charges
• 51:08
  Speaker 6: and stop funding Homeland Security. The borders are going to
• 51:11
  Speaker 6: become open again. We're going to have millions of people
• 51:14
  Speaker 6: trying to come across the border again. I firmly believe that.
• 51:17
  Speaker 3: Well, and here's, I think it's, I can't remember which
• 51:21
  Speaker 3: of our Oregon listeners asked me this. What happens when
• 51:26
  Speaker 3: the new Texas governor orders the border opened and the
• 51:29
  Speaker 3: border guard says no? That's going to be an interesting moment,
• 51:33
  Speaker 3: if she does. So these are all the things that
• 51:37
  Speaker 3: are going to keep us going. And remember, God gave
• 51:40
  Speaker 3: us our rights.
• 51:41
  Speaker 4: The U.S. government didn't. They were just founded.
• 51:45
  Speaker 3: The deed to this country says their role is to
• 51:49
  Speaker 3: protect our rights, not create new ones.
• 51:52
  Speaker 4: And we've got to hold them to it. One last thought.
• 51:56
  Speaker 6: And God is just testing us. We have to go
• 51:59
  Speaker 6: back and keep the faith. and keep following our beliefs.
• 52:04
  Speaker 4: Yep.
• 52:04
  Speaker 3: Remember, you know, Christianity begins with a murder or a
• 52:08
  Speaker 3: government execution, whatever you want to call it. Be good,
• 52:12
  Speaker 3: my friend. Talk to you soon.
• 52:13
  Speaker 6: Bye.
• 52:17
  Speaker 3: 434-882-4217. Ah, these other religions, they begin with a birth.
• 52:23
  Speaker 3: Our religion begins with somebody getting killed by the government.
• 52:26
  Speaker 10: 434-882-4217.
• 52:31
  Speaker 3: On the postscript to Election Day, and what happens next, remember.
• 52:37
  Speaker 3: And this is such an important point, and it's, you know, truth,
• 52:40
  Speaker 3: whether it was four weeks ago or four weeks from now.
• 52:44
  Speaker 3: God gives you your rights. The U.S.
• 52:46
  Speaker 4: Government is just supposed to be there to protect them.
• 52:51
  Speaker 15: Crime across the country is at an all-time high. It
• 52:54
  Speaker 15: feels like even a family road trip is taking a risk.
• 52:57
  Speaker 15: We don't want the feeling of being unprotected and vulnerable.
