  Speaker 1: Tom Zawastowski, good to have you back on the show.
• 0:33
  Speaker 2: Good morning, Bryan, Happy Tuesday, Cincinnati.
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: And what is going on in so far as state issues?
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: I've been talking to some state politicians the other day.
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: I had Zach Rains on, who Americans for Prosperities endors
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: sounds like a good guy. Viv Ramaswami, is there anything
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: going on in as far as property tax relief? That
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: seems one thing that's looming large in the state of
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: Ohio because it may be that the election officials are
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: going to have to deal with a train wreck, which
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: would be us voting on whether we want to eliminate
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: property taxes in the state via a constitutional amendment through
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: a ballot initiative. I don't think they want that to
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: have to happen. I think they should get ahead of
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: it ahead of time, because that's going to be a
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: catastrophe if they have to unfold the wreckage of taking
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: away property taxes with the flick of a switch. Anything
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: going on in that level, Tom.
• 1:22
  Speaker 2: Yeah, there's a lot going on, you know. I think
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: that the the grassroots effort, you know, to put that
• 1:29
  Speaker 2: amendment on the ballot. You know, they have to collect
• 1:32
  Speaker 2: four hundred and fifteen thousand signatures and that's a really
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: hard job. But it has had the fact of, you know,
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: as they say, forcing the legislature to focus maybe on
• 1:43
  Speaker 2: the issue. And so there there is still more, you know,
• 1:46
  Speaker 2: legislation that's been talked about in the House and the Senate,
• 1:50
  Speaker 2: but you know, I think there's no doubt that something
• 1:54
  Speaker 2: has to be done. Right. You can't just punt. You
• 1:57
  Speaker 2: can't say, well, you can't repeal all of it. So
• 2:00
  Speaker 2: don't do anything. We have to do something, and I'm
• 2:03
  Speaker 2: in conversation with you know, the Vey Promiswami on this issue.
• 2:08
  Speaker 2: I'm talking to other people in the Republican Party and saying, guys,
• 2:13
  Speaker 2: we've got to get serious, and we've got to get
• 2:14
  Speaker 2: serious fast. So I expect you're going to see some
• 2:18
  Speaker 2: proposals coming out from a lot of directions to address
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: this issue in a less you know, as you said,
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: you know this idea of almost blowing everything up, you
• 2:27
  Speaker 2: repealing everything all at once. I don't think we can
• 2:30
  Speaker 2: do that. So you're going to see some sort of compromise,
• 2:33
  Speaker 2: a more uh you rational. I guess you would say,
• 2:36
  Speaker 2: a way of reducing property taxes. But also remember it's
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: not just about the property taxes. What caused the property
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: taxes get out of control, it's local government and state
• 2:49
  Speaker 2: government just growing uncontrollably. I mean, the other part of
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: the property tax issue is that by reducing the amount
• 2:58
  Speaker 2: of money coming into these state agencies, you can force
• 3:02
  Speaker 2: them to reform. And what I mean by reform, well,
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: I mean that you get them to start looking at
• 3:09
  Speaker 2: the money they're spending and spend it wiser, yes, and
• 3:13
  Speaker 2: give us more for their dollar. I heard your interview
• 3:16
  Speaker 2: with Charlie about what's going on in Cincinnati, and that's
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: the perfect example. We've got government that can't function.
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: Well, you set a mouthful there, and I just say,
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: I'm just sort of going, yeah, there in lies the problem.
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: I think we're all well aware of that and the
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: other component of this. And you know, I talked about
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: this with just the other day on the whole the
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: school funding has been ruled unconstitutional for the past couple
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: of decades. That is an issue that's inextricably inter intertwined
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: with property taxes. They haven't done anything by way of
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: changing that. So sending the money out to the students
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: seems me a way of perhaps bringing about this level
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: of efficiency and competition that the public schools really desperately need,
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: because there's a lot of competition with the public schools already,
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: with charter schools popping up and you know Christnills Academy
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: for example, or the Sin Sant Classical Academy. Great education
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: opportunities for students who feel and parents who feel underserved
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: by public schools.
• 4:17
  Speaker 2: Well, this is you know, I think this is the
• 4:19
  Speaker 2: real issue in America today. I mean, we're supposed to
• 4:22
  Speaker 2: be a capitalist society. We've gotten all the growth in
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: our country. Why are we different than the rest of
• 4:29
  Speaker 2: the world's because we apply free market principles of competition
• 4:34
  Speaker 2: and things like that. And yet if you look at
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: our society from a government standpoint, it's all communists. When
• 4:40
  Speaker 2: it's the healthcare system, the education system, you know, institutions,
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: it's not about competition, it's about eliminating competition. And you
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: get you know what we've got, You've got work performance
• 4:54
  Speaker 2: and no accountability. So all of this has to do
• 4:58
  Speaker 2: with reforming government, and particularly in the coming age of
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: AI where a lot of the stuff that is now
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: you know an excuse, well, you know they didn't have
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: the day that they didn't know how to do this,
• 5:09
  Speaker 2: They couldn't figure it out. That's all ending real soon,
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: like starting this year, and we've got to start to
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: implement that in all of our government agencies, from healthcare
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: to schools and things of that nature. And just your
• 5:24
  Speaker 2: local government, like using the railroad, you need to the
• 5:28
  Speaker 2: fricking city.
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: Boiling it down to its simple as terms. Tom's AWASASKI
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: will continue get a word or two on your perception
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: of V. V. Ramasamy selection for Lieutenant Governor Ra McCauley,
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: and also the Ohio Minnesota Somali daycare fraud link. Tom's Awastowski,
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: and then we're going to hear from Steve Gooden late
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: edition of the program to talk about Christopher's suggestion that
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: a lawsuit should be filed because city council did not
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: explain to us the reason they went into executive session
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: the other day. Is that a possible suit. We'll find
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: out from Steve after we talk with Tom, and then
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: X segments stick around at seven thirty six. Right now,
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: let me make about car CV talk station found my
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: line we either people Convention dot Org. Tom z Awastowski
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: returns of the morning show talk about matters of vol
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: the state. Real quick here ahead. Ramaswami on the other
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: day and I asked him about his selection of Rob
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: McCauley's lieutenant governor for his running mate. He said they're
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: consistent eye to eye on all the positions Dvek has
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: been running on, but also that because Rob has been
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: around for a while in politics, he understands what we
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: basically boiled down to the sausage making process of getting
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: legislation passed in through what's your reaction to Rob as
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: the Lieutenant governor as a running mate any pop plus
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: and minuses. What's going on?
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: Tom, Well, you know, I always look at this, you know,
• 6:42
  Speaker 2: from a grossrooms strandpoint, and we've been, you know, going
• 6:46
  Speaker 2: through this process for sixteen years and and you know,
• 6:49
  Speaker 2: our concern, and I think a lot of your listeners
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: concern is there's the Veke Famaswami going to be captured
• 6:55
  Speaker 2: by the Columbus cartel, Right, what are the signs of that?
• 6:59
  Speaker 2: And he picked Rob from a field of five people,
• 7:04
  Speaker 2: all of whom had state office positions and things like that.
• 7:08
  Speaker 2: My problem was I didn't know Rob. I never met
• 7:12
  Speaker 2: a guy, which is pretty moving blank because you know,
• 7:15
  Speaker 2: you and I talked to pretty much everybody in this
• 7:18
  Speaker 2: state all the time. And so I was concerned. You know,
• 7:21
  Speaker 2: he's a Senate president and you're thinking, Okay, is this
• 7:25
  Speaker 2: guy you know part of the cartel? Is he associates
• 7:28
  Speaker 2: affiliated with the Wine and with Kasik and all those guys,
• 7:32
  Speaker 2: and and but I think the Day was very honest
• 7:36
  Speaker 2: about the fact he's an outsider and he's got a
• 7:40
  Speaker 2: very inspirational agenda, an aspirational agenda for Ohio, and he's
• 7:47
  Speaker 2: going to need to get it through the legislature, So
• 7:50
  Speaker 2: it makes total sense that he would try to pick
• 7:52
  Speaker 2: someone right Rob to do that. Not to their credit,
• 7:57
  Speaker 2: I had never met Rob, but they Bay must have
• 7:59
  Speaker 2: told him to call me, because the day after he
• 8:01
  Speaker 2: was announced, Rob called me and we had a two
• 8:04
  Speaker 2: hour conversation. And you can imagine, you know, my conversations
• 8:08
  Speaker 2: are never just, you know, simple, I mean, we went
• 8:11
  Speaker 2: at it. We went at a big time. I wanted
• 8:13
  Speaker 2: to know who is this guy? Is he on board
• 8:16
  Speaker 2: with the kind of reforms that that they is going
• 8:19
  Speaker 2: to push, And I'm convinced he is. I'm convinced that
• 8:23
  Speaker 2: he's he's open to the kind of things that we're
• 8:27
  Speaker 2: talking about with property tax reform and reform of government.
• 8:31
  Speaker 2: I think he gets the fact. Remember he did come
• 8:34
  Speaker 2: out of the business y. He hasn't just been a
• 8:37
  Speaker 2: government his whole life. So I think that's a good sign.
• 8:41
  Speaker 2: I can assure our Glassrooms people that this is a
• 8:44
  Speaker 2: good choice because they have a really strong relationship, and
• 8:47
  Speaker 2: as you know, that's that's probably the most important thing.
• 8:50
  Speaker 2: You can't have anybody like Mike Pence stabbing in the
• 8:53
  Speaker 2: back when you're Trump. You need somebody you can trust.
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: Isn't that the truth?
• 8:57
  Speaker 2: Well?
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: Real quick here a new state or to Keith Faber
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: announced last week that they have a new opportunity for
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: us to rat out fraud, waste, and abuse in government.
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: Your reaction to whether or not that is a strong
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: enough response to what has been revealed in Minnesota in
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: Minneapolis as well as maybe even here in Ohio with
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: regard to the abuse of public funds.
• 9:19
  Speaker 2: So, you know, I know all of us are curious,
• 9:22
  Speaker 2: and there's a lot of noise going on, particularly if
• 9:24
  Speaker 2: you're online. You know, Mahika Cook is out there investigating.
• 9:30
  Speaker 2: There's some pretty good citizen journalists who are digging and
• 9:35
  Speaker 2: finding some things. Okay, but let's take for instance that
• 9:39
  Speaker 2: you know, one of the first things that came out
• 9:41
  Speaker 2: about Ohio was those forty daycares that all you know
• 9:47
  Speaker 2: were made legal in the one day they all run
• 9:50
  Speaker 2: in June of twenty twenty four to go on. Well,
• 9:53
  Speaker 2: I heard Keith talk about that, and they did investigate it,
• 9:57
  Speaker 2: and what they found out was that was not true.
• 9:59
  Speaker 2: They didn't all style on that day and get done.
• 10:02
  Speaker 2: That was some sort of a problem with the computer
• 10:05
  Speaker 2: system that just put them all in that date and
• 10:08
  Speaker 2: that those are all they're legitimate. He did look at that.
• 10:11
  Speaker 2: So I want numbers and our people out there from
• 10:14
  Speaker 2: you know, in all of Ohio to know that Keith
• 10:17
  Speaker 2: Faber and Bob Spragg and those guys they are looking
• 10:21
  Speaker 2: into this. And while there is a lot of smoke,
• 10:25
  Speaker 2: I so far have not seen fire, meaning, you know,
• 10:28
  Speaker 2: billions of dollars like in Minnesota that have been stolen.
• 10:31
  Speaker 2: There are millions of dollars, and I think Keith may
• 10:34
  Speaker 2: had talked about a few of those things, but so
• 10:37
  Speaker 2: far I haven't seen this kind of you know, the
• 10:40
  Speaker 2: systemic corruption like you saw in Minnesota. So that's my
• 10:45
  Speaker 2: viewpoint this at this stage.
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: Tom's Alastawski. The people convention it out or hopefully it
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: stays that way, and hopefully we have been slightly ahead
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: of the curve, and that would give my listeners and
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: of course the residents of the state of Ohio a
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: lot of comfort. Tom, keep up the great work. I'm
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: pleased that you were referred to Rob McAuley by v
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: v A gramise f. I me suggesting to my listeners, Tom,
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: you're a man that needs to be consulted with because
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: he's got a lot of influence we either People Convention
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: dot org. Tom, you and I will talk again real soon.
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: I wish you the best of health and happiness for
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: the next week until we hear from each other.
• 11:18
  Speaker 2: I hear from you again, I'll look forward to the
• 11:20
  Speaker 2: next time.
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: Thanks very much, As always, Steve Gooden, our legal expert.
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: Did they violate rules that are worthy of a
