Transcript
- 0:11Speaker 1: We'll do it making mornings great again.
- 0:14Speaker 2: Well, the first thing today on the trunk media at
- 0:17Speaker 2: Joe Thomas.
- 0:18Speaker 3: We'll do it live.
- 0:19Speaker 4: It's fat.
- 0:25Speaker 5: Jewart said, steal me step. You have a day at
- 0:30Speaker 5: least for work. When the sun comes up, drops a
- 0:32Speaker 5: kid just scoom. Then on the way, Joe.
- 0:35Speaker 6: Has everything a gender all the Jasu needs.
- 0:40Speaker 5: No one that Joe's as smiled he on the eggs.
- 0:44Speaker 2: But as you're already reset the clocks. Oh it's six
- 0:49Speaker 2: o'clock on the eastern what already? If that's your excuse,
- 0:56Speaker 2: it doesn't flush because if you had already reset the clocks,
- 1:00Speaker 2: we would have started the show an hour ago. I've
- 1:03Speaker 2: been sitting here talking like a tree falling in the woods. Anyway,
- 1:07Speaker 2: thank you for letting us.
- 1:09Speaker 4: Do this live.
- 1:09Speaker 2: See that's what we call now in our excuse making
- 1:13Speaker 2: spin room a watermark to prove that this isn't Ai
- 1:17Speaker 2: generated and pre recorded. This is live as it is
- 1:20Speaker 2: happening right now. One week since we learned that we
- 1:25Speaker 2: had started dropping ordinance all over Tehran and blew up
- 1:31Speaker 2: the Ayatola, and much and much and much has gone
- 1:36Speaker 2: on since then. Most of its spin, most of it
- 1:39Speaker 2: people who have made their bones off of being anything
- 1:44Speaker 2: and everything anti Trump, that even people who have supported
- 1:50Speaker 2: the idea of doing something about Iran, I can't do,
- 1:54Speaker 2: Bill Crystal, all these bots ah is wrong. Why is
- 1:57Speaker 2: it wrong because Trump did it? That's all you have
- 2:01Speaker 2: to say. When you listen to these folks who run
- 2:03Speaker 2: around them. Why is this because Trump did it? Every
- 2:10Speaker 2: other administration we do something like this the next thing.
- 2:13Speaker 2: By this time, one week later, we would already have
- 2:15Speaker 2: had several marine battalions on the ground trying to quote,
- 2:20Speaker 2: create a green zone around the Capitol. It's not happening,
- 2:25Speaker 2: by the way, Just to be fair, right wing spin
- 2:29Speaker 2: happens too. So the headlines that say on Newsmax Trump Trump,
- 2:37Speaker 2: he say, Trump dissuades Allay's fears that we don't have
- 2:41Speaker 2: enough ammunition. That's not what he said. He said he
- 2:45Speaker 2: got together with the defense manufacturers and their tripling production.
- 2:50Speaker 2: Guess what means we're running out of ammunition. So it
- 2:54Speaker 2: goes both ways, and I will call balls and strikes
- 2:57Speaker 2: both ways. Come on, guys, the President did say we're
- 3:02Speaker 2: running low on ammunition, and he said he's asked the
- 3:05Speaker 2: manufacturers have said ordinances to triple their production text message
- 3:14Speaker 2: when he made the announcement yesterday. Came in to me.
- 3:16Speaker 2: Why didn't he order tripling production before he did this? Oh,
- 3:21Speaker 2: I don't know. Maybe that might have tipped off somebody that, eh,
- 3:24Speaker 2: something's going on. They just have started working triple shifts
- 3:28Speaker 2: at the missile factory. Let's face it, we're burning through
- 3:35Speaker 2: ordinance faster than Britney Spears burns through breathalyzer tests. What
- 3:41Speaker 2: too soon? Anyway? Four three four eight eight two four
- 3:46Speaker 2: two one seven. That is what you're going to need
- 3:49Speaker 2: to know, because we will tell you what went on
- 3:51Speaker 2: last night, We will tell you our analysis of what
- 3:54Speaker 2: went on since last week chatted, and we will ask
- 3:58Speaker 2: how it is impacting you where you are. So these
- 4:02Speaker 2: are the first things this morning. Iran's President Basud Prazikian
- 4:11Speaker 2: has rejected a demand for unconditional surrender that President Trump
- 4:15Speaker 2: posted to social media. He has apologized for attacking all
- 4:20Speaker 2: the other Arab countries in the world, even as more
- 4:24Speaker 2: missiles fly into places like Bahrain. Israeli warplanes continue their
- 4:30Speaker 2: assault on Beirut as well as Tehran. President Trump and
- 4:36Speaker 2: War Secretary Pete Hank sith as I just said met
- 4:38Speaker 2: Friday with the chief executive officers of several defense contractors.
- 4:45Speaker 2: The president wrote on truth social after the meeting, said
- 4:49Speaker 2: we discussed production and production schedules, and they agreed to
- 4:53Speaker 2: quadruple production of the weaponry that we want to reach
- 4:57Speaker 2: as rapidly as possible the highest levels quantity. A spokesperson
- 5:02Speaker 2: for Iran's Revolutionary Guard has challenged the administration to go
- 5:07Speaker 2: ahead and deploy US naval vessels to escort oil tankers
- 5:12Speaker 2: through the Strait of Hormuz. Iranian state media reported that
- 5:16Speaker 2: spokesman Ali Mohammed Naini said, we recommend that before making
- 5:21Speaker 2: any decisions, the Americans remember the fire on the American
- 5:25Speaker 2: super tanker Bridgerton in nineteen eighty seven. The Food and
- 5:31Speaker 2: Drug Administration's in battled vaccine chief, doctor Vinet Prasad, is
- 5:36Speaker 2: once again leaving the agency. Marty McCarey made the announcement
- 5:40Speaker 2: to FDA staff that he'll stay through the end of April.
- 5:44Speaker 2: President Trump said late Thursday a US ground invasion of
- 5:48Speaker 2: Iran would be a waste of time, saying the Islamic
- 5:52Speaker 2: Republic has already been crippled by American military action. However,
- 5:56Speaker 2: we find out through the Washington Post and News have
- 6:00Speaker 2: corroborated a report that Russia is providing Iran with targeting
- 6:05Speaker 2: information on US troops. President Trump said he'll travel today
- 6:12Speaker 2: to Dover Air Force Base in Delaware to honor the
- 6:15Speaker 2: fallen US service members returning home. He said he'll be
- 6:19Speaker 2: there with First Lady Milania Trump and members of his
- 6:22Speaker 2: cabinet quote to pay our highest respect to our great
- 6:28Speaker 2: warriors who are returning home for the last time. God
- 6:31Speaker 2: blessed them all. Energy Secretary Chris Wright said Friday that
- 6:36Speaker 2: gasoline prices could start falling within weeks after a sharp
- 6:39Speaker 2: upturn in the conflict with Iran, arguing the disruption to
- 6:46Speaker 2: oil markets will not be permanent, and US Customs and
- 6:50Speaker 2: Border Protection told a federal judge Friday it's going to
- 6:53Speaker 2: need forty five days to comply with the court's order
- 6:57Speaker 2: to start making reparations to those who pay tower.
- 7:01Speaker 7: Let's see if something costs less a lot less, but
- 7:04Speaker 7: people are actually happier with it. That sounds like something
- 7:07Speaker 7: to look into.
- 7:08Speaker 2: And that's meta share.
- 7:10Speaker 7: Maybe you've heard joining meta share can save you or
- 7:12Speaker 7: your family up to five hundred bucks a month, and
- 7:15Speaker 7: that's huge, But it's also true. People are just happier
- 7:17Speaker 7: with it. They love being part of something that reflects
- 7:20Speaker 7: and promotes their values and what they believe in.
- 7:23Speaker 2: Meda Share works too.
- 7:24Speaker 7: It's been around for thirty years now and members have
- 7:27Speaker 7: shared more than seven billion dollars of each other's bills.

- 7:34Speaker 7: So yeah, really, you can save a ton and like
- 7:37Speaker 7: it better. Imagine being happy with how you're taking care
- 7:39Speaker 7: of your health care, whether you're self employed or part

- 7:59Speaker 9: Forty Considered by most, optimized curcumin is one of the
- 8:07Speaker 9: few bioavailable and highly absorbable curcumin products on the market. Hi,
- 8:13Speaker 9: I'm doctor Mitch. Since most chronic diseases have inflammation, our
- 8:18Speaker 9: optimized curcumin seems to be a perfect addition to any
- 8:22Speaker 9: nutritional program. It makes sense to me that preventing or
- 8:26Speaker 9: reducing inflammation is a key component to our overall health.
- 8:31Speaker 9: The Mayo Clinic found that kurcumin can decrease swelling and inflammation,
- 8:36Speaker 9: has antioxidant properties, and research suggests that kurcumin can prevent
- 8:42Speaker 9: cancer or at least slow the spread of cancer, and
- 8:46Speaker 9: in many instances, make chemotherapy more effective. It protects our
- 8:50Speaker 9: healthy cells even from radiation. Total Wellness dot com where

- 10:01Speaker 11: Growing up on a farm in Tennessee, I've been fascinated
- 10:03Speaker 11: with animals. I'm not only in all of their beauty
- 10:05Speaker 11: and kindness, but also their tireless work ethic. Just look
- 10:08Speaker 11: at the birds who gather supplies to build nests, or
- 10:11Speaker 11: Swiss foxes who work hard to provide for their young,
- 10:14Speaker 11: or penguins who travel up to five hundred miles to
- 10:17Speaker 11: secure food for their families, or bush babies whose impressive
- 10:20Speaker 11: jump allows them to navigate the trees and the wild
- 10:22Speaker 11: in search of fruit. This remarkable work ethic is shared
- 10:25Speaker 11: by our best friends, the canines. We know dogs are
- 10:28Speaker 11: wonderful pets at home, but because of their acute senses,
- 10:32Speaker 11: they also perform life saving work every day. Dogs keep
- 10:35Speaker 11: us safe at airports. They comfort returning veterans, some of
- 10:37Speaker 11: whom suffer from PTS. They work with diabetics, alerting them
- 10:41Speaker 11: when there's a change in their blood chemistry. Working dogs
- 10:43Speaker 11: have a variety of highly trained roles that contribute to
- 10:46Speaker 11: society and help those in need. So please join me

- 10:52Speaker 11: all the amazing animals on this planet.

- 11:10Speaker 14: art and brain.
- 11:12Speaker 4: Who's with me?
- 11:13Speaker 12: Good thing is he knows when he's buzzed, and my

- 13:16Speaker 2: first thing Today.
- 13:20Speaker 16: The MAGA Republicans are rejoining districts estates across the country
- 13:33Speaker 16: to rig our elections.
- 13:37Speaker 2: See this is where the spinning goes is. They're making
- 13:41Speaker 2: it out and the the ads that are twenty one
- 13:46Speaker 2: dollars and counting in the confers of those who seek
- 13:50Speaker 2: to overthrow constitutions temporarily. Oh, we want to temporarily suspend
- 13:55Speaker 2: your constitution.
- 13:57Speaker 16: They attack our community at every turn.
- 14:01Speaker 2: No evidence, just this is the tv AD and now they.
- 14:05Speaker 4: Want to silence our voices.
- 14:08Speaker 13: That's why we must vote yes for temporary measure that
- 14:11Speaker 13: puts the power back in our hands.
- 14:14Speaker 2: Temporary measure that suspends a state constitution. So what else
- 14:20Speaker 2: could they suspend? This is going on in Virginia. And
- 14:23Speaker 2: by the way, redistricting has claimed more people. California Republican
- 14:28Speaker 2: has abandoned the party because his district is now mostly Democrats.
- 14:34Speaker 2: He's one of those few California Republicans that had their
- 14:38Speaker 2: district pulled away from them. Is Riley is the congressman
- 14:45Speaker 2: out of northern California who has lost to Kylie. I'm sorry,
- 14:53Speaker 2: not Riley Kylie, Kevin Kylie. He's registered as no party
- 14:58Speaker 2: preference on the ballot now, which I mean could be fair.
- 15:06Speaker 2: And this is the fund So it's really easy in
- 15:10Speaker 2: states like Missouri and New York, where you register as
- 15:16Speaker 2: a political party member and you have a lot of choices.
- 15:19Speaker 2: New York, you can register as a Conservative Party member,
- 15:23Speaker 2: a Green Party member, left wing, Looney Party I'm not
- 15:27Speaker 2: sure that's one, but it should be Republican Democrat of course.
- 15:33Speaker 2: So it's easy for them to draw partisan districts because
- 15:37Speaker 2: they know where everyone is, including the ones that aren't
- 15:45Speaker 2: registered to vote thanks to Eric. Eric is not a person.
- 15:49Speaker 2: Eric is a software that was catfish, probably the original
- 15:53Speaker 2: catfishing in this that says, hey, by the way, here
- 15:59Speaker 2: are all the iligible but unregistered voters. Go get them.
- 16:07Speaker 2: Barack Obama has been all over the airwaves here in
- 16:10Speaker 2: our flagship state of Virginia telling everyone we vote yes,
- 16:14Speaker 2: we've got to stop Trump. And this is the best
- 16:16Speaker 2: part is after a bit of being too cute by half,
- 16:20Speaker 2: they've admitted this is to stop Trump. That may be
- 16:27Speaker 2: your thing. You might be like, you know what, I
- 16:29Speaker 2: liked Republicans better when they just went along to go
- 16:32Speaker 2: along and lost regularly. Like the Washington Generals when they
- 16:36Speaker 2: play the Harlem Globetrotters, they're really just there to be
- 16:41Speaker 2: other guys on the floor. They're the straight man to
- 16:48Speaker 2: meadow Lark Lemon's comedy. And there are a lot of
- 16:58Speaker 2: Republicans who have made built Crystal amongst many you know,
- 17:01Speaker 2: made tons of money in the loyal opposition Party, the
- 17:06Speaker 2: shadow government, whatever, and every time they're asked to govern,
- 17:09Speaker 2: they turn on each other and it's frustrating. So while
- 17:12Speaker 2: Kevin Kylie has registered as no party preference while given
- 17:17Speaker 2: the frightening of a chance of what the Democratic Party
- 17:22Speaker 2: wants to do, not just with impeachment, but the fact
- 17:25Speaker 2: that they want to suspend constitutional order violate multiple laws.
- 17:31Speaker 2: I was asked this the other day at an event
- 17:34Speaker 2: was at well, what laws did these Virginia Democrats violate?
- 17:38Speaker 2: All of the laws that they put in place to
- 17:41Speaker 2: establish procedures to protect the constitution, and they've violated them all. Now,
- 17:47Speaker 2: the most recent one isn't even about the redistricting, it's
- 17:52Speaker 2: about the abortion amendment. They still haven't posted the amendment
- 17:57Speaker 2: that they passed that's supposed to go to the voters.
- 18:00Speaker 2: Now it's not supposed to go until pardon me, until November,
- 18:05Speaker 2: I guess technically September, when early voting in Virginia starts.
- 18:09Speaker 2: But they never posted, they've never sent it to registrars,
- 18:12Speaker 2: and the governor last week signed a law that says
- 18:17Speaker 2: it's okay to do that. They've written laws in this state,
- 18:21Speaker 2: in my home state where we don't register by party affiliation.
- 18:29Speaker 2: The governor signed a law that said violating a law
- 18:35Speaker 2: is okay now because I've retroactively made it okay that
- 18:41Speaker 2: they don't have to do this. They don't have to
- 18:43Speaker 2: tell you what is in a constitutional amendment beforehand. They
- 18:48Speaker 2: don't have to post it to the party official or
- 18:51Speaker 2: the election officials so that they can share it with
- 18:53Speaker 2: their community. No, why would you want to know that?
- 18:56Speaker 2: Where Democrats just vote for what we tell you to
- 18:59Speaker 2: vote for. So if it wasn't for the frightening disregard
- 19:04Speaker 2: for the law that the Democratic Party has, I would
- 19:08Speaker 2: truly be sitting here saying I don't see the point
- 19:11Speaker 2: in Republicans half the time. But there has to be
- 19:15Speaker 2: a line in the sand. There has to be a
- 19:18Speaker 2: stop this. They're the party of chaos. They're the party
- 19:25Speaker 2: of violating the law. They're the party of ignoring procedure
- 19:29Speaker 2: and then rewriting procedure retroactively. Why don't you just legalize
- 19:35Speaker 2: marijuana and then make it retroactive so everyone who's ever
- 19:40Speaker 2: been convicted of drug possession is free to go and
- 19:43Speaker 2: their record is expunged because we've gone back in time
- 19:48Speaker 2: and made this okay, because we wrote a law that says,
- 19:52Speaker 2: so they write laws that say they can break laws.
- 19:57Speaker 2: So as frustrating as Republicans can be, this story of
- 20:02Speaker 2: Kevin Kylie no party preference rings hard with me because
- 20:09Speaker 2: I'm still watching these quote main street Republicans, meaning these
- 20:13Speaker 2: are the ones who just want to, you know, cut
- 20:17Speaker 2: some taxes and then you complain about Democrats on TV,
- 20:22Speaker 2: call into radio shows and complain while you have your
- 20:26Speaker 2: liberty further and further eroded during COVID. During all the lockdowns,
- 20:32Speaker 2: I heard from people all across the listening area, when
- 20:37Speaker 2: are the Republicans going to say something? And we asked
- 20:39Speaker 2: the Republicans are like, what can we do. We don't
- 20:42Speaker 2: have a majority, we don't have the governor's mansion. We
- 20:45Speaker 2: can't stop them. Plus half of them were scared of
- 20:48Speaker 2: COVID anyway, so they didn't even have a coalition. Half
- 20:52Speaker 2: the Republicans believed that the WU flu was going to
- 20:55Speaker 2: you know, like a machine gun in your mouth, just
- 20:58Speaker 2: going laying death destruction everywhere. It goes like so many
- 21:04Speaker 2: bombers over Tehran. But too soon it's becoming the theme
- 21:09Speaker 2: of this Saturday Mornings program anyway, So much to get
- 21:12Speaker 2: into on this Saturday morning with you and me. The
- 21:16Speaker 2: vaccine chief is out again again. Something Bob Good said
- 21:22Speaker 2: to us, do we have the clip of Bob where
- 21:23Speaker 2: he was, you know, because Bob expressed something a lot
- 21:26Speaker 2: of people are starting to fear about President Trump is
- 21:29Speaker 2: that after year one he started to become just like
- 21:33Speaker 2: everyone else again. And we're feeling that twenty seventeen feeling
- 21:38Speaker 2: of the rights, prebuses and everything else. But we'll get
- 21:43Speaker 2: into all of that with you and me in the
- 21:44Speaker 2: four Walls at four three four eight eight two four
- 21:48Speaker 2: two one seven. Text message as well, We've got a
- 21:50Speaker 2: bunch of those. We'll get into them next. Emails JT
- 21:55Speaker 2: in the Morning Radio at gmail dot com along the
- 21:58Speaker 2: Talk media network.
- 22:01Speaker 17: Hey guys, I'm Teddy Savage, National League training for Planet
- 22:04Speaker 17: Fitness and the American Heart Association recommends that we all
- 22:07Speaker 17: get at least one hundred and fifty minutes of moderate
- 22:10Speaker 17: aerobic activity in a week's time. But here's the thing
- 22:13Speaker 17: that one hundred and fifty minutes does not need to
- 22:15Speaker 17: be super intense. As a matter of fact, it could
- 22:18Speaker 17: just be you moving your body and doing what you

- 24:07Speaker 9: bioavailable and highly absorbable curcumin products on the market. Hi,
- 24:12Speaker 9: I'm doctor Mitch. Since most chronic diseases have inflammation, our
- 24:18Speaker 9: optimized curcumin seems to be a perfect addition to any
- 24:22Speaker 9: nutritional program. It makes sense to me that preventing or
- 24:26Speaker 9: reducing inflammation is a key component to our overall health.
- 24:31Speaker 9: The Mayo Clinic found that kurcumin can decrease swelling and
- 24:35Speaker 9: inflammation has antioxidant properties, and research suggests that kurcumin can
- 24:41Speaker 9: prevent cancer or at least slow the spread of cancer,
- 24:45Speaker 9: and in many instances, make chemotherapy more effective. It protects
- 24:50Speaker 9: our healthy cells even from radiation. Total Wellness dot com

- 28:20Speaker 21: Basis you looked at me, instructor of the side.
- 28:23Speaker 8: Sorry.
- 28:24Speaker 17: Five basis a laugh to do You just do what
- 28:27Speaker 17: I thought.
- 28:27Speaker 7: You was gonna do three days.
- 28:29Speaker 21: It's a living We're about to blame able to do
- 28:32Speaker 21: me today you just smiled to me three three days
- 28:35Speaker 21: dewis they were sorry, you'll stupid. Two days to we
- 28:40Speaker 21: say we're sorry.
- 28:42Speaker 22: Say who was apparently the president of the National Council
- 28:45Speaker 22: of Resistance of Iran, the n c RI I. He
- 28:48Speaker 22: and they immediately announced some kind of a provisional government
- 28:50Speaker 22: that they would like to put in place. You've got
- 28:52Speaker 22: the Crown Prince Polabi who says he'd like to be
- 28:56Speaker 22: an interim leader. But and the president, our president, President
- 29:02Speaker 22: Trump has said he wants to be involved in choosing
- 29:04Speaker 22: the next leader. The people of Iran are not armed,
- 29:09Speaker 22: you know, they don't have the right to recognized right
- 29:11Speaker 22: that we have here to defend themselves, keeping their arms,
- 29:14Speaker 22: so to speak. So and you do wonder how much
- 29:19Speaker 22: to your point it played into the action that was
- 29:21Speaker 22: taken with the President Trump promising, hey, help is on
- 29:25Speaker 22: the way. And you had thirty forty thousand people killed
- 29:28Speaker 22: during the uprising who were just slaughtered by the regime.
- 29:33Speaker 22: But it's hard to imagine something sustained without a prolonged
- 29:38Speaker 22: US presidence that puts US in harm's way. The country
- 29:42Speaker 22: will at some point grow tired of us there.
- 29:46Speaker 2: That's a former chair of the House Freedom Concasse Bob
- 29:49Speaker 2: Good from yesterday's First Thing Today program there and available
- 29:56Speaker 2: his whole visit on our podcast channel. We've taken up
- 30:00Speaker 2: our software has been upgraded. We have chapters now, so
- 30:03Speaker 2: if you subscribe, certainly through Spotify, you get chapter in
- 30:07Speaker 2: verse as it were, Sorry, I'll get an email saying
- 30:10Speaker 2: don't infer. So it's just like when I say President
- 30:14Speaker 2: Trump entered the Temple of American Government and started overturning
- 30:19Speaker 2: the tables because he saw people selling indulgences. Are you thinking,
- 30:23Speaker 2: are you comparing President prompt to Jesus? I'm just saying
- 30:27Speaker 2: the actions seem apt, but emails JT in the Morning
- 30:31Speaker 2: radio at gmail dot com, and I wasn't just saying
- 30:35Speaker 2: that the activities the showing up at our Temple Americana
- 30:41Speaker 2: and noticing how the indulgences had been sold and that
- 30:44Speaker 2: the temple leadership had been corrupted. I'm just saying, let
- 30:50Speaker 2: me hey, don't shut me off yet. We've got callers
- 30:53Speaker 2: calling in at four three four eight A two four
- 30:56Speaker 2: to two one seven, kareem for before I get to
- 31:00Speaker 2: the phone calls Texan, Are you implying there aren't Trump,
- 31:04Speaker 2: there aren't troops on the ground and around Kareema. I
- 31:07Speaker 2: don't think I was implying that. By the way, I
- 31:10Speaker 2: don't know if you saw this very popular video going
- 31:12Speaker 2: all around the Asia Free Press has debunked the AI
- 31:18Speaker 2: generated video of American troops walking down a street in Tehran.
- 31:24Speaker 2: Nyan Tunshen for the Asian Free Press out of Thailand
- 31:30Speaker 2: reports that they have back engineered it. It was using
- 31:36Speaker 2: Google's AI and thropic whatever tools, you know, all the
- 31:41Speaker 2: ones that are in a snit because the Pentagon wants
- 31:45Speaker 2: their source code and all of that. So no, and
- 31:51Speaker 2: if there are, God bless them, if they're teaching people
- 31:53Speaker 2: how to use their Second Amendment right, their God given
- 31:56Speaker 2: right to defend themselves, because I still maintained every time
- 32:01Speaker 2: we do this, the very first thing we should do
- 32:04Speaker 2: is give every man and woman of adult age a
- 32:06Speaker 2: rifle and a pistol and ammunition for them. We don't,
- 32:11Speaker 2: and that's why you wind up with situations like you know,
- 32:14Speaker 2: the Taliban in Afghanistan and they drive around in Toyota
- 32:19Speaker 2: tundras with fifty cows mounted in the truck bed, and
- 32:23Speaker 2: they terrorize these villages that we've left without any sort
- 32:27Speaker 2: of leadership because we've taken out the dictator that we
- 32:31Speaker 2: don't like. And that's fine taking out, you know, leaders
- 32:33Speaker 2: of countries that are being bad to their citizens. But
- 32:36Speaker 2: creating a vacuum isn't that much better? And all these
- 32:40Speaker 2: chaos junkies that run around zoo, Trump is about chaos.
- 32:44Speaker 17: You know.
- 32:44Speaker 2: They whine and complain because President Trump hasn't sat down
- 32:48Speaker 2: in Rand Paul's office or Tim Kayne's office and said, mother,
- 32:52Speaker 2: may I to an authorization that Barack Obama and Hillary
- 32:56Speaker 2: Clinton signed off on in two thousand and two. So
- 32:59Speaker 2: grow set, Nancy. But moreover they're they're complaining about that chaos.
- 33:04Speaker 2: Let's worry about the chaos we could create. And where
- 33:08Speaker 2: is the press coverage? If I may ask? Of the rallies?
- 33:11Speaker 2: There are all sorts of videos and this is the
- 33:15Speaker 2: hypocrisy on the March. Every day, some news agency shows
- 33:20Speaker 2: me video of people partying in Kiev, you know, a
- 33:24Speaker 2: bunch of college kids out for a night drinking beer
- 33:27Speaker 2: and vodka in Kiev, and they say, oh, it doesn't
- 33:30Speaker 2: look like they're or at oz. Where are the videos
- 33:33Speaker 2: of the celebrations that I see on social media? And
- 33:37Speaker 2: friends of mine Iranian expats who are like, this is
- 33:40Speaker 2: what my cousin's celebration going on in this city, that city,
- 33:44Speaker 2: cities we've never heard of, all across the countryside celebrating,
- 33:48Speaker 2: leading one to say, hmm, seems like Iranians love America
- 33:52Speaker 2: more than Democrats do. But that's just me. Your results
- 33:56Speaker 2: may vary. That's why we keep the phone lines open.
- 33:59Speaker 2: Good morning, you are on the air, first thing this
- 34:01Speaker 2: Saturday morning with Joe.
- 34:02Speaker 20: Who's this Good morning Joe.
- 34:04Speaker 8: It's Joel.
- 34:05Speaker 2: Goody, Joel Hoes. Your Saturday morning is shaping up.
- 34:09Speaker 20: It's okay, I'm on the job hunt again. And unfortunately,
- 34:12Speaker 20: but I don't know. I just wanted to say this,
- 34:16Speaker 20: can't the Republicans or anybody reverse engineer what the Democrats
- 34:23Speaker 20: are trying to do and with the changes that they're
- 34:26Speaker 20: trying to make in Virginia. And the other thing is
- 34:31Speaker 20: how are they Isn't there a state Supreme Court?
- 34:35Speaker 23: And I know, but I mean it's the way he
- 34:39Speaker 23: says it. Oh my gosh, it's you're like Bob Newhart.
- 34:42Speaker 23: The way you said that's so dead pad. Oh my gosh,
- 34:45Speaker 23: great delivery.
- 34:46Speaker 2: Isn't there a state Supreme cord here?
- 34:49Speaker 4: Yeah?
- 34:49Speaker 20: Because you know you have all these you have all
- 34:52Speaker 20: these other people around the country, federal judges that want
- 34:56Speaker 20: to do their their their American patriotic part of inveni
- 35:00Speaker 20: against President Trump. So why aren't there at intervening against
- 35:06Speaker 20: illegalities that that they know they can't even they're not
- 35:09Speaker 20: supposed to be doing that with the state contest.
- 35:11Speaker 2: Oh oh my gosh. Yeah, where do I begin that.
- 35:14Speaker 20: It's not like putting a hangman's RiPP around your neck
- 35:17Speaker 20: and jumping off the staircaser No.
- 35:18Speaker 2: No, no, why would you suggest Jeffrey Epstein did that?
- 35:22Speaker 2: I mean, come on, now, yeah, they never.
- 35:25Speaker 20: Yeah, they never found the clothing or something.
- 35:28Speaker 2: Well, yeah, but they think the cameras were off at
- 35:31Speaker 2: the time. That's it was about. It was it was Microsoft.
- 35:35Speaker 2: They were doing an upgrade. But but to your question
- 35:39Speaker 2: about the Virginia Supreme Court, So, in the early twentieth century,
- 35:47Speaker 2: the Virginia Supreme Court passed a precedent that they were
- 35:51Speaker 2: not going to weigh in on pending legislation, that while
- 35:56Speaker 2: legislation was in the process of being determined within General Assembly,
- 36:01Speaker 2: they would not rule on it, basing their point on
- 36:04Speaker 2: the fact the long standing statute of standing saying that, well,
- 36:14Speaker 2: they're debating legislation. So while they're doing that, there have
- 36:20Speaker 2: been no victims of this legislation. Nobody has suffered under it.
- 36:23Speaker 2: So we will not weigh in even if and this
- 36:27Speaker 2: is the funny thing, So because there's legislation pending, this
- 36:30Speaker 2: redistricting legislation, and it involves voting, even if there are
- 36:35Speaker 2: clear instances of the Government of Virginia Democratic Party proprietor
- 36:43Speaker 2: violating clear and determined laws, even where the court has said, yes,
- 36:49Speaker 2: they violated these laws. But because it's in the process
- 36:53Speaker 2: of doing something legislatively, we won't weigh in on it.
- 36:58Speaker 2: And that's the joke in this is it even so?
- 37:01Speaker 2: I compared it the other day to you know, come
- 37:05Speaker 2: calling a police officer over and saying, officer, there's a
- 37:09Speaker 2: guy in my house robbing my house, and the cops
- 37:11Speaker 2: saying I'm sorry, I can't arrest him until he leaves
- 37:14Speaker 2: with all the stuff because right now, all he's doing
- 37:17Speaker 2: is rearranging your furniture. Uh, it's it's crazy, but that's
- 37:21Speaker 2: what they're doing right now.
- 37:23Speaker 20: I want to say this, you can put this in
- 37:25Speaker 20: for a SoundBite. That's moronic, I mean really moronic.
- 37:29Speaker 2: That's that's that's actually a kind thing. That's the kindest
- 37:32Speaker 2: thing that's been said about the Virginia Supreme Court and
- 37:35Speaker 2: their rulings in this lately.
- 37:38Speaker 20: It sounds like, you know, I'm gonna I'm gonna hit
- 37:40Speaker 20: myself in the head with a hammer and it's gonna hurt,
- 37:43Speaker 20: but I don't care, you know. It's just it's just
- 37:46Speaker 20: like your outcome is not going to be good or
- 37:48Speaker 20: I mean, for some people may knock some sense into them,
- 37:50Speaker 20: but I don't tell it. It just sounds like the
- 37:54Speaker 20: Tasmanian devil spinning around doesn't know where they're going to go.
- 37:57Speaker 13: It is.

- 41:02Speaker 12: Of course, neither is half as hard as dying. Sadly,
- 41:07Speaker 12: type two diabetes, heart disease, and stroke kill nearly a
- 41:10Speaker 12: million people a year. Even sadder, most of these deaths

- 41:23Speaker 12: your risk for type two diabetes and heart disease, and

- 44:47Speaker 24: You've seen one, you've seen them all?
- 44:50Speaker 27: All right, listen, Abe, I got to note what what
- 44:52Speaker 27: what's the problem you're you're you're thinking of shaving it
- 44:56Speaker 27: off a don't you see that's part of the image,
- 45:02Speaker 27: right with a shawl and the stove, five pads, a
- 45:04Speaker 27: string tie.
- 45:06Speaker 13: Maybe you don't have the.
- 45:07Speaker 27: Shaw where's.
- 45:13Speaker 2: Telling you? Joel is right there? He's like the illegitimate
- 45:17Speaker 2: steps of Bob Newhart, just you know, just dry humor.
- 45:21Speaker 2: What about the Virginia Supreme Court. It's just the way
- 45:25Speaker 2: he says it. What about the Virginia and this? You know,
- 45:28Speaker 2: and and I don't mean to be I know they're
- 45:30Speaker 2: good hearted folk who are just trying to, you know,
- 45:33Speaker 2: make themselves tens of millions of dollars before they retire,
- 45:37Speaker 2: so that, you know, come on, it beats cutting up
- 45:40Speaker 2: chicken parts for airline food. So you know, you look
- 45:44Speaker 2: at these folks, you know, like Nancy Pelosian and Mitch McConnell,
- 45:49Speaker 2: and you say, you know, what, what would they have
- 45:52Speaker 2: done to make tens upon tens of millions of dollars
- 45:55Speaker 2: in the private sector? I mean, you could the line
- 46:00Speaker 2: could race, couldn't it? On this Saturday morning? As you
- 46:03Speaker 2: go about it? What what could they have done? Could
- 46:05Speaker 2: they have built casinos and golf courses and big office
- 46:09Speaker 2: buildings that are still considered some of the pre eminent
- 46:12Speaker 2: of the world. I mean, you know, if you want
- 46:15Speaker 2: to complain, what what would these folks have done in
- 46:21Speaker 2: the private sector? Play with that for a while. Hey,
- 46:26Speaker 2: real quick, our friends at Freedom Fest, we were visiting
- 46:29Speaker 2: with Valerie Durham and we're heading out there in July
- 46:32Speaker 2: to kick off the next two hundred and fifty years
- 46:36Speaker 2: at the Ultimate Liberty Fest in Las Vegas, Nevada. The
- 46:42Speaker 2: Scousin's always throw a great show. And they're singing, there's dancing,
- 46:47Speaker 2: there's a what's the old vad Villik's a little song,
- 46:50Speaker 2: a little dance, a little celts in your pants. So
- 46:55Speaker 2: they've they've got Adam Carolla and Rob Schneider, they've got
- 46:58Speaker 2: musical performances, they've got Broadway theater, they've got great documentary films. Oh,
- 47:04Speaker 2: and you know, all sorts of freethinkers, free marketeers, guys
- 47:09Speaker 2: like Joel Salatin and folks like that, are always out
- 47:11Speaker 2: there talking about ways to get around the state. It
- 47:16Speaker 2: isn't even about this anymore. And the scary thing. Last year,
- 47:20Speaker 2: we were in Palm Springs for Freedom Fest and Joel
- 47:22Speaker 2: Salatin was explaining how the rogue farm movement works where
- 47:28Speaker 2: you get around these FDA regulations. And I said to him,
- 47:31Speaker 2: I said, Joel, you know, I remember the fall of
- 47:35Speaker 2: the Soviet Union and the reason that Mikel Garbageov was
- 47:40Speaker 2: engaging in Perestroika. It was because his economy had become
- 47:47Speaker 2: so driven underground. Everything was black market. Wean ridiculous things,
- 47:52Speaker 2: yet black market groceries, like the Rogue Farm conference, folks,
- 47:59Speaker 2: black market plumbers, things that should never have to be
- 48:03Speaker 2: driven into the black market. And we're seeing it today
- 48:06Speaker 2: in the United States. They exported their authoritarian governance to
- 48:15Speaker 2: the United States, and they march under banners of fairness
- 48:24Speaker 2: when it's anything but The Soviet Union collapsed because it
- 48:28Speaker 2: was patently unfair. The fairness they marched under was warned
- 48:34Speaker 2: to us by George Orwell when he wrote Animal farm.
- 48:39Speaker 2: All animals are equal to some animals are more equal
- 48:42Speaker 2: than others. So but anyway, So Valerie announced to us

- 49:25Speaker 2: Was that the light flashing? Or do I need the

- 50:12Speaker 2: this time. Good morning? Who's this?
- 50:15Speaker 8: Good morning, Joe? It's dream again. How are you starting Kareem?
- 50:18Speaker 2: It's no, it's Kareem for the first time.
- 50:21Speaker 8: Oh, don't worry.
- 50:22Speaker 2: We reset the We reset the clock at the at midnight.
- 50:28Speaker 2: So what's on your mind.
- 50:31Speaker 8: Again?
- 50:31Speaker 28: Your show is always a rich court copy of things
- 50:34Speaker 28: to pull from, this most recent one about the fall
- 50:37Speaker 28: of the Soviet Union in the early nineties. Peris Troika
- 50:40Speaker 28: and Gorbachev and glass nose. What so just a few
- 50:45Speaker 28: seconds and I'll hang up No deed nineteen nineties.
- 50:49Speaker 2: Ob go ahead, Oh no, I want to hear what
- 50:51Speaker 2: you have to say. Don't feel like you got a rush?
- 50:55Speaker 8: Well, thank you, sir. When I started to go around
- 51:00Speaker 8: Jeffrey Sachs, he noted Columbia.
- 51:02Speaker 28: Professor economists who helped Bolivia back in the eighties wings
- 51:06Speaker 28: at Harvard. He was sitting in Moscow, sitting working with
- 51:11Speaker 28: the Russian government when Yelton came out of the door
- 51:14Speaker 28: and said, gentlemen, I've just been off the phone with
- 51:16Speaker 28: and you can say phill In whichever Soviet leader you want.
- 51:19Speaker 28: At that time, I think it was Khorachov. And at
- 51:22Speaker 28: that moment the Soviet Union was dissolved. And so that's
- 51:27Speaker 28: where sax was. He god to witness it first tand
- 51:29Speaker 28: because he wasn't in the room, but he was adjacent
- 51:31Speaker 28: to the room, right. The answer from then on, when
- 51:36Speaker 28: things collapsed, they really did. Men with guns would go
- 51:42Speaker 28: take over factories because as you said earlier, no Second Amendment,
- 51:45Speaker 28: people couldn't replace their own security.
- 51:48Speaker 8: They had to work on with others. Gangs taken over control.
- 51:52Speaker 28: Things went really bad, really quick when those networks of
- 51:55Speaker 28: men with guns were already below the surface.
- 51:59Speaker 8: The we can call them secret societies.
- 52:01Speaker 28: We can call them clubs, we call them gangs, whatever
- 52:04Speaker 28: you off you Yeah, yes, all those working things were
- 52:10Speaker 28: from what people say is mainly because they're too much
- 52:13Speaker 28: defense spending in Afghanistan.
- 52:15Speaker 8: So right now, I just paid five dollars a gallon
- 52:18Speaker 8: for diesel.
- 52:18Speaker 28: I can see it easily getting seven by the end
- 52:20Speaker 28: of the summer if this Iran issue ramps up.
- 52:23Speaker 8: Anyway, I'm just throwing that eighty bit little tidbit in
- 52:26Speaker 8: and you have a great day.
- 52:27Speaker 2: Well, no, and your and your analogy is very apt
- 52:31Speaker 2: and both here at home and abroad. Thank you, Kareem.
- 52:34Speaker 2: You have a great weekend. Okay, there he goes four
- 52:38Speaker 2: to three four eight eight two four two one seven.
- 52:40Speaker 2: That's how you do it. That's how we roll here.
- 52:43Speaker 2: I want to hear how the news of the day
