- 0:45Speaker 1: to the morning show. I just really look forward every

- 0:50Speaker 1: who listens to me regularly realizes that today parents demand
- 0:53Speaker 1: roadblocks stop child sexual exploitation. Yeah, it's really fridening article.
- 0:59Speaker 1: And you'll get the link of the articles. I always
- 1:01Speaker 1: like to remind and he does as well. LinkedIn dot com.
- 1:04Speaker 1: Just search for Dave hat or you'll find him and
- 1:06Speaker 1: he puts the articles that he refers to in support
- 1:09Speaker 1: of his comments. Every Friday at six point thirty. That
- 1:11Speaker 1: would be one of them kids on roadblocks, whatever the
- 1:14Speaker 1: hell that is. You might not want them there. Idaho
- 1:17Speaker 1: Banning mandatory digital ID with new privacy law that was passed.
- 1:20Speaker 1: Plus your smart devices are speaking to hackers, continuing a
- 1:25Speaker 1: theme I think in that third topic Signal ninety nine,
- 1:29Speaker 1: with her finger on the pulse of all the craziness
- 1:31Speaker 1: going on in downtown Cincinnati. She will be in studio
- 1:34Speaker 1: the return. Got some updated things to talk about with
- 1:37Speaker 1: signal ninety nine, the collaborative agreement, she says, we need
- 1:40Speaker 1: to do something about that. It's in force, it's still
- 1:42Speaker 1: in place, but it doesn't provide any structure. And who
- 1:45Speaker 1: is in charge of telling the police what to do
- 1:47Speaker 1: and what not to do? Apparently the police do not know.
- 1:50Speaker 1: They are kind of swirling in mystery on that. What
- 1:52Speaker 1: are the policies? Can we do our policing work or
- 1:55Speaker 1: we're going to be scrutinized by maybe iris Roli or others.
- 1:58Speaker 1: So and you can indict a ham sandwich. It's a
- 2:01Speaker 1: long it's an old joke. An indictment. The prosecutor's office
- 2:06Speaker 1: is responsible for presenting evidence to in a grand jury.
- 2:08Speaker 1: Only the evidence the prosecutor's office provides for the grand
- 2:11Speaker 1: jury is there. The defendant does not have any opportunity
- 2:14Speaker 1: to present evidence. There's no argument made on behalf of
- 2:16Speaker 1: the person who is getting ready to be indicted. In
- 2:18Speaker 1: most cases, and since the prosecutor controls all evidence, that's
- 2:22Speaker 1: where the joke comes from. You can indict a ham
- 2:24Speaker 1: Sandwich now going back, and once you indict him and
- 2:26Speaker 1: you bring him to court and for a criminal trial,
- 2:29Speaker 1: you maybe can't convict him, but you can at least
- 2:33Speaker 1: indict them, issue and arrest warrant and arrest them. Well,
- 2:38Speaker 1: threatening to murder a Hamilton County common please, judge, that
- 2:41Speaker 1: would be described as a felony, and someone can be
- 2:44Speaker 1: charged with felony retaliation? What happens when you go into
- 2:47Speaker 1: the grand jury room? Should be able to do that?
- 2:49Speaker 1: Since there's all kinds of witnesses in this particular case,
- 2:52Speaker 1: including the defense attorney heard this guy threaten the judge
- 2:57Speaker 1: and the judge's family's life. How is it you can't
- 3:00Speaker 1: get an indictment for felony retaliation when you have all
- 3:03Speaker 1: of these witnesses confirming that he said what he said. Well,
- 3:07Speaker 1: guess what happened, grand jury? I guess just came out
- 3:10Speaker 1: with a single misdemeanor aggravated menacing charge. This judge obviously
- 3:15Speaker 1: reeling over that a whole lot of details along with that,
- 3:17Speaker 1: Signal ninety nine is what would we have her for?
- 3:20Speaker 1: Also her endorsements, Yes, she does endorse and endorse most
- 3:23Speaker 1: notably judges. And we'll get a little update I think
- 3:28Speaker 1: on Chief Washington as well as Christopher Smithamth's petitioned to
- 3:31Speaker 1: bring some sort of balance in the hiring and firing
- 3:33Speaker 1: of police and fire chiefs. Signal ninety nine in studio
- 3:36Speaker 1: at seven h five for a full hour. My friend
- 3:38Speaker 1: Claire Corkoran, Claremont County's Claire Corkran and the mother of
- 3:42Speaker 1: Keegan Corkoran Arsaumier. Claire's kind of join us at eight
- 3:45Speaker 1: oh five, what's Claremont County doing for America's two to
- 3:49Speaker 1: fiftieth celebration. She's a true patriot and I had the
- 3:52Speaker 1: blessings and a good fortune of working with her many
- 3:55Speaker 1: many years ago at the Hamilton County Domestic Relations Court
- 3:58Speaker 1: for those who remember back in the day when was
- 4:01Speaker 1: on the fourth floor of the Hamilton County Courthouse. So
- 4:03Speaker 1: that'll be fine. Robert Robert rather Robert Borton's with the
- 4:07Speaker 1: book Woke and Weaponized. You'll love this how Carl Marx
- 4:11Speaker 1: won the Battle for American education and how we can
- 4:14Speaker 1: win it back. Since that classical academy is a way
- 4:17Speaker 1: to win it back. I love those folks. You don't
- 4:19Speaker 1: know anything about since a classical, it's just an amazing
- 4:22Speaker 1: education opportunity where your children will not be woke. They
- 4:25Speaker 1: won't be taught Marxism. They'll be trained in the classic, literal,
- 4:28Speaker 1: classic education manner, and it will come out as bright
- 4:32Speaker 1: and shiny, wonderful human beings and true patriots five one three, seven,
- 4:36Speaker 1: four nine fifty five nards will free shot for them.
- 4:38Speaker 1: Five one three, seven, four nine fifty five hundred, eight
- 4:41Speaker 1: hundred and eighty two to three talk found five fifty
- 4:43Speaker 1: on AT and T phones. All right, somebody explain this
- 4:46Speaker 1: to me. You don't have to explain it to me.
- 4:47Speaker 1: I know what's going on, but here, let me just
- 4:49Speaker 1: do a star contrast headlines Warren Iran pushes US and
- 4:52Speaker 1: flights into three point five percent in March. Painted to
- 4:55Speaker 1: pump is intensifying for consumers. As the Iran war drags on,
- 4:59Speaker 1: Republicans are con learned about the impact on the November elections.
- 5:01Speaker 1: Democrats are salivating over the idea that the Trump administration
- 5:05Speaker 1: is going to cause the well, the Democrats to win
- 5:07Speaker 1: the election in November, taking over the House, taking over
- 5:10Speaker 1: the Senate. Why because you and I can't manage five
- 5:12Speaker 1: dollars gallon gas, even though we've been through this before
- 5:15Speaker 1: at COVID nineteen, and in spite of the fact that
- 5:18Speaker 1: it's going to disappear. The increase in price is temporary,
- 5:21Speaker 1: however long the war goes. As soon as the straight
- 5:23Speaker 1: of horror moves opens up and the oil starts flowing again,
- 5:26Speaker 1: this is a temporary increase. It is a pain. I
- 5:30Speaker 1: will not argue it has that it doesn't harm and
- 5:33Speaker 1: hurt family's bottom line obviously. But if we can wrap
- 5:37Speaker 1: this thing up over the Middle East and the oil
- 5:39Speaker 1: starts flowing again, the price will necessarily come down, unlike
- 5:45Speaker 1: the pain imposed upon you by legislation passed by Democrats
- 5:48Speaker 1: which intentionally drives up the cost of energy. Get a
- 5:51Speaker 1: load of this, New York. The chickens are coming home
- 5:56Speaker 1: to roost on the pain at the pump, or at
- 5:58Speaker 1: least the inevitable increase that they have brought on themselves
- 6:01Speaker 1: in New York twenty nineteen climate law which is getting
- 6:05Speaker 1: ready to kick in, and Kathy Hokel, the Governor is
- 6:08Speaker 1: hoping that the Democrat legislature will delay implementing this climate mandate.
- 6:13Speaker 1: Why because it's going to raise energy costs, which might
- 6:17Speaker 1: negate the advantage Democrats would have by being able to
- 6:19Speaker 1: blame Donald Trump and the war for the temporary increase
- 6:23Speaker 1: of energy costs. This twenty nineteen climate law, it's going
- 6:25Speaker 1: to be permanent, and the Democrats are not backing down.
- 6:30Speaker 1: Law requires the state to develop policies like cap and
- 6:33Speaker 1: trade and order to reduce its CO two emissions by
- 6:37Speaker 1: forty percent by twenty thirty and get rid of eighty
- 6:41Speaker 1: five percent by twenty fifty. That is compared to nineteen
- 6:46Speaker 1: ninety levels. So, according to their filing, Democrats the brief
- 6:57Speaker 1: in support of the lawsuit seeking to compel Hockel to
- 7:02Speaker 1: enforce the twenty nineteen mandates, legislature knowingly enacted the statute
- 7:09Speaker 1: that would require large scale economic transformation, including substantial and
- 7:14Speaker 1: uncertain costs. The law directly acknowledges that a transition to
- 7:19Speaker 1: a clean energy economy may impose costs and affect certain
- 7:23Speaker 1: sectors more than others, like job displacement and fossil fuel.
- 7:27Speaker 1: Sucks to be you. They don't care about your job.
- 7:29Speaker 1: If it's somebody else's job, they might lift a finger
- 7:31Speaker 1: and say this is crazy. Donald Trump caused this industry
- 7:34Speaker 1: to lose number of jobs. Whatever. Job loss is not
- 7:39Speaker 1: a question whose ox is being gord It's a question
- 7:41Speaker 1: of whose policies are put in place that eliminate jobs
- 7:43Speaker 1: like the entire fossil fuel industry if the Democrats had
- 7:45Speaker 1: their way anyway, Hoche argues that Congress's roll back of
- 7:49Speaker 1: the green energy subsidies is going to make them in
- 7:53Speaker 1: New York well, force them to spend a whole lot
- 7:59Speaker 1: more to their climate goals. You and I, therefore are
- 8:02Speaker 1: not going to subsidize New York. If they want to
- 8:04Speaker 1: go on a frolic in this ridiculous exercise and try
- 8:07Speaker 1: to eliminate their carbon dioxide output, let them. But you
- 8:10Speaker 1: and I at least don't have to pay for it.
- 8:11Speaker 1: Thank you, Donald Trump for rolling back green energy subsidies.
- 8:14Speaker 1: That's a market force. If you don't have a subsidy,
- 8:17Speaker 1: then that product or service or that concept has to
- 8:19Speaker 1: exist on its own, or in the case of climate policies,
- 8:23Speaker 1: you got to pay for them on your own. Isn't
- 8:25Speaker 1: that the way it should be? Then you can decide
- 8:27Speaker 1: cost benefit analysis whether it's worth the pain you're imposing
- 8:31Speaker 1: upon your people to obtain the carbon dioxide reduction. And
- 8:36Speaker 1: you know damn well that New York eliminating all of
- 8:38Speaker 1: its carbon dioxide isn't going to do anything relative to
- 8:41Speaker 1: the world's carbon dioxide quantity. Ask China. Hochel estimates that
- 8:49Speaker 1: the policies to achieve the emissions reductions required by the
- 8:54Speaker 1: law that her party put in place, passed and signed,
- 8:59Speaker 1: is going to increase New York utility bills. Are you ready?
- 9:03Speaker 1: Four thousand dollars a year? And gasoline prices will increase
- 9:11Speaker 1: by two dollars and twenty three cents a gallon. Now
- 9:14Speaker 1: we've just seen about a buck and a half increase
- 9:16Speaker 1: in price, and people are pulling their hair out over
- 9:19Speaker 1: damn it, evil Orange man, look what you did. You
- 9:23Speaker 1: and your stupid war will pause for a moment, and
- 9:26Speaker 1: if the stupid war turns out favorably for us, of
- 9:29Speaker 1: course again the energy prices will go back down. Gasoline
- 9:31Speaker 1: to be flown. We won't have a problem with that.
- 9:33Speaker 1: But what else do we get? A world free of
- 9:37Speaker 1: the terrorist regime that is Iran? Maybe one step closer
- 9:45Speaker 1: to all of the air nations entering into the Abraham
- 9:47Speaker 1: Accords got so many dominoes following along those lines in
- 9:51Speaker 1: a positive way. Let's work and cooperate economically. Let's quit
- 9:53Speaker 1: fighting each other, let's quit funding terrorist organizations make our
- 9:57Speaker 1: lives a living hell. Just try to imagine all the
- 10:02Speaker 1: good and positive that might come with that, the stability
- 10:05Speaker 1: that would bring about, and maybe even reduction in prices,
- 10:07Speaker 1: because if we're not paying for wars, we're not dropping
- 10:10Speaker 1: bombs on each other, We're not busy rebuilding everything that
- 10:12Speaker 1: we blew up in the during the process. We got
- 10:15Speaker 1: to have a little more extra money laying around to,
- 10:17Speaker 1: I don't know, grow the economy. It's got to be
- 10:20Speaker 1: a better world without the Iranians. That's my perception anyway.
- 10:23Speaker 1: Democrat legislators say this new policy would squeeze the average
- 10:27Speaker 1: New Yorkers. When they passed the law, they knew it,
- 10:29Speaker 1: going back to this twenty nineteen climate law in New York.
- 10:32Speaker 1: They acknowledged it at the time they were talking about it.
- 10:35Speaker 1: Going back to my often re quoted Barack Obama quote
- 10:38Speaker 1: from back in what was at six seven, the price
- 10:40Speaker 1: of gasoline necessarily will increase right here, This is what
- 10:43Speaker 1: they were saying when they passed this law. One Democratic
- 10:47Speaker 1: senator acknowledged the bill would, in his words, ask people
- 10:49Speaker 1: to make sacrifices, i e. Pay more, One Republican senator
- 10:54Speaker 1: obviously arguing against. Instead, it'll be bad for the economy,
- 10:56Speaker 1: resulting lots of jobs loss, increase energy rates, and further
- 10:59Speaker 1: hampering New York's economy. You can't deny any of that.
- 11:02Speaker 1: This is what's coming home to roost.
- 11:03Speaker 3: Now.
- 11:04Speaker 1: All those things will happen. They talked about it when
- 11:06Speaker 1: they passed it. Democrats dismissed all of it because climate change.
- 11:19Speaker 1: Somebody called me up and let me know how many
- 11:20Speaker 1: of al Gore's predictions came true, by the way. One
- 11:25Speaker 1: Democratic senator in twenty nineteen at this time proclaimed that
- 11:27Speaker 1: even if the laws mandate brings hard times, is words
- 11:33Speaker 1: going on. If we haven't saved our planet, the rest
- 11:37Speaker 1: is moved. Well New York off to save the planet
- 11:41Speaker 1: in spite of the fact that well again, China keeps
- 11:44Speaker 1: building carbon dioxide belching coal plants. The war itself is
- 11:50Speaker 1: probably put more carbon dioxide than New York can eliminate
- 11:53Speaker 1: over its lifetime. Volcanoes full up, wildfires happen. You can
- 11:57Speaker 1: go on and on and on and on. These efforts
- 12:00Speaker 1: are stupid and pointless. They're a gesture. So ask yourself,
- 12:04Speaker 1: what's the point in the face of reality? Why would
- 12:08Speaker 1: I want to pay two dollars and twenty three cents
- 12:10Speaker 1: a gallon more when it's not going to accomplish anything.
- 12:12Speaker 1: To do that, I get no return on my investment,
- 12:15Speaker 1: even if I believe in climate change and think the
- 12:17Speaker 1: world's going to burn up or freeze, as the case
- 12:20Speaker 1: may be, Our efforts in New York aren't going to
- 12:23Speaker 1: do anything to achieve the goal reverse that, and yet
- 12:31Speaker 1: they're doing it anyway. So it's okay. What's more important?
- 12:39Speaker 1: Can you struggle through a temporary increase in gasoline price,
- 12:43Speaker 1: make that quote unquote sacrifice in the name of well
- 12:46Speaker 1: bringing about some greater global stability and actually achieve peace
- 12:50Speaker 1: in the Middle East in our lifetime because everybody's been
- 12:53Speaker 1: clamoring for it now for a thousand plus years. I
- 12:58Speaker 1: think I can handle the increase for the time being.
- 13:05Speaker 1: But can you repeal the climate law in New York?
- 13:07Speaker 1: Will that ever happen? Self imposed injury five eighteen fifty

- 13:53Speaker 1: Happy Friday. Thanks for calling in the show.
- 13:56Speaker 4: Hey, thanks Brian. I wanted to mention that we've been
- 13:59Speaker 4: playing for you and Joe's health and family situations.
- 14:04Speaker 1: But that's not what I call Well, Joe and I
- 14:06Speaker 1: both really appreciate it. Thank you very much.
- 14:09Speaker 4: Hey, that's great. Hey, I listen. I I when I
- 14:12Speaker 4: got up this morning, I read on Fox News about
- 14:14Speaker 4: the h South Carolina State University UH respending the Lieutenant
- 14:20Speaker 4: governor's commencement speech. I didn't know if you heard about
- 14:25Speaker 4: it or want to get your.
- 14:26Speaker 5: Thoughts on it.
- 14:27Speaker 3: UH.
- 14:27Speaker 1: I only saw the headline. It was a Republican going
- 14:30Speaker 1: to go the commencement speech and they said, no, you
- 14:31Speaker 1: can't do that. Yeah, yes, I mean she's.
- 14:34Speaker 4: A billionaire CEO, but apparently believes in DEI, Holy cow,
- 14:39Speaker 4: and she's white and all my heavens and and so,
- 14:44Speaker 4: and she's not only believes in DEI, but she's pro
- 14:46Speaker 4: Trump and the little the sensitive butterflies at George, excuse me,
- 14:53Speaker 4: at South Carolina State University cannot guarantee her safety. Good Lord,
- 14:59Speaker 4: we sho Republicans, We do all this. So now the Republicans,
- 15:03Speaker 4: apparently they have a supermajority in the state House, they
- 15:07Speaker 4: want to resend the funding for this ABCU, which, praise God.
- 15:12Speaker 4: You know, we've got to change education.
- 15:14Speaker 1: Oh ridiculous, Oh, without question, Steve. But but I guess
- 15:19Speaker 1: I'm just kind of struggling over this whole thing. Cannot
- 15:21Speaker 1: guarantee her safety, Steve. Can Can anybody's safety be guaranteed
- 15:27Speaker 1: anywhere at any time?
- 15:29Speaker 4: I mean, right, you know, you've got to we've got
- 15:35Speaker 4: to come. We've got to cow tow to the idiots,
- 15:39Speaker 4: these little college that the students were up in arms.
- 15:43Speaker 4: They can't stand for a white lady to come and
- 15:46Speaker 4: you know, talk to them about Good Lord. She took
- 15:49Speaker 4: a startup and created a billion dollar company. Oh no,
- 15:53Speaker 4: we can't hear from her.
- 15:54Speaker 1: So so the historically black college university is denying this
- 16:00Speaker 1: opportunity because they can't guarantee the safety from their own
- 16:04Speaker 1: student body. The threat comes from their own students. That's frightening.
- 16:10Speaker 4: They had all kinds of protests, and that's volumes. You know,
- 16:14Speaker 4: give a wife, and you know, we've got these poor kids.
- 16:20Speaker 4: They're indoctrinated so sadly that they just can't stand to
- 16:24Speaker 4: hear it.
- 16:25Speaker 1: Well, isn't that the truth? And that whole the whole
- 16:28Speaker 1: exercise right there speaks volumes. My friend, Hey, perfect timing, Steve,
- 16:32Speaker 1: and I appreciate the call and bringing that to everybody's attention,
- 16:34Speaker 1: because at the end of the show, Robert Borton's book
- 16:36Speaker 1: Woke and Weaponized, How car Marks Won the Battle for
- 16:40Speaker 1: American Education, and fortunately the subtitle how we can win
- 16:43Speaker 1: it back. Perfect timing on your call and perfect timing
- 16:47Speaker 1: for that news story. We are screwed in this country
- 16:50Speaker 1: fundamentally unless we turn the ship in the opposite direction.
- 16:53Speaker 1: Five twenty five right now, Fifi five caresy detalk station,
- 16:56Speaker 1: local stories or phone calls. Either way, we'll go there
- 16:59Speaker 1: be right back yeah, gas buddy, I shouldn't have gone there.
- 17:10Speaker 1: Uh for my friends out there that also must or
- 17:13Speaker 1: should at least is recommended by the manufacturer pumping premium
- 17:16Speaker 1: six bucks a gown. Yep. Juste Rekerd just reminded me
- 17:20Speaker 1: it's gonna be a moment in time in the future
- 17:23Speaker 1: here when we start seeing the I did that signs
- 17:25Speaker 1: with Donald Trump's pace on him. Yeah. Fine, But like
- 17:29Speaker 1: I said, unlike the Democrats policies where the price of
- 17:32Speaker 1: gas necessarily increase and stays there forever to keep you
- 17:36Speaker 1: from using it, this is temporary toor to phones, Tom,
- 17:40Speaker 1: Welcome to the Morning Show, and Happy Friday to you, sir.
- 17:44Speaker 6: Yeah, good mornings. Like yesterday when I looked up at
- 17:48Speaker 6: a gas sign, I said, Holy Toledo. I mean, it's
- 17:52Speaker 6: it's crazy, but yeah, you're right. We've got to we've
- 17:56Speaker 6: got to remember what this is all about, what the
- 17:58Speaker 6: reason of this is for. It stinks. Uh, you know,
- 18:02Speaker 6: you were gonna stand there at a pump and watch
- 18:04Speaker 6: that what's that price keep flicker and faster and faster,
- 18:08Speaker 6: But uh, we got to hang in there because it's
- 18:10Speaker 6: it's a good reason to do this. We got Yeah,
- 18:14Speaker 6: we gotta we gotta make sure that we get this done.
- 18:18Speaker 6: That's the thing though, they and I know Trump's got
- 18:20Speaker 6: to resolve to do that. But the twitching over to uh,
- 18:24Speaker 6: the last callers topic education and how how much these
- 18:29Speaker 6: kids are being indoctrinated. I don't really know how much
- 18:31Speaker 6: we can do with uh the actual whatever is being educated,
- 18:36Speaker 6: whatever the teachers are talking about, professors or whatever. I mean,
- 18:40Speaker 6: I suppose you can try to get in there, if
- 18:43Speaker 6: you feel led to to, uh, try to get a
- 18:46Speaker 6: job there and at some university and start bringing some
- 18:50Speaker 6: something different to the table. And if you can, if
- 18:52Speaker 6: you can get if you can get the door right
- 18:56Speaker 6: right exactly. But uh, parents that have kids that are
- 19:01Speaker 6: either you know, at any any grade level, young kids
- 19:05Speaker 6: all the way up into college, you still have the
- 19:06Speaker 6: ability to talk to them and share things with them.
- 19:09Speaker 6: And and uh, you know, I know a lot of
- 19:11Speaker 6: these arguments to these discussions turn into arguments and stuff.
- 19:15Speaker 6: And and because these kids are just they buy into
- 19:18Speaker 6: this garbage and it feeds into their feelings and whatever.
- 19:21Speaker 6: But it's it's not it's not realistic. The stuff that
- 19:24Speaker 6: they're they're saying that they want, it's not realistic.
- 19:27Speaker 2: Uh.
- 19:27Speaker 6: And and it's up to us to show it to them.
- 19:29Speaker 6: Whenever we get a chance to say, hey, you gotta
- 19:31Speaker 6: you got to keep in mind and you use whatever
- 19:33Speaker 6: analogy you can use real life situations. It's not really
- 19:37Speaker 6: hard to to, uh, to show the kids that you
- 19:40Speaker 6: know that this stuff that you're you're trying to believe
- 19:43Speaker 6: and and talking about getting all upset about it's not real.
- 19:46Speaker 6: It's not realistic. It's not gonna hold water or anything.
- 19:48Speaker 6: And and it's just being willing to have that conversation.
- 19:52Speaker 1: Yeah, that's interesting that I just wrote a note down. Yeah,
- 19:55Speaker 1: you can counter the narrative, you can undo the efforts
- 19:59Speaker 1: to indoctrinate. You can speak truth to your children in
- 20:01Speaker 1: spite of what they're hearing in school and counter it.
- 20:04Speaker 1: But what of the parents who don't even bother to
- 20:07Speaker 1: give a rip where their kids are at two o'clock
- 20:09Speaker 1: in the morning. You think they're having conversations about politics, religion,
- 20:13Speaker 1: or anything else with their kids.
- 20:14Speaker 6: No, right, nope, And so yeah, you got to talk
- 20:18Speaker 6: to your kids, and you know, stay in school, don't
- 20:21Speaker 6: do drugs, and don't vote demontrat have a great We.
- 20:24Speaker 1: Do the same. Tom always wait for the tagline five

- 21:11Speaker 1: on airplane mode or leave them in a locker before
- 21:13Speaker 1: you ride on rides there. Apparently they're triggering accidental nine
- 21:17Speaker 1: to one one calls. That's a shame. I'm not laughing
- 21:20Speaker 1: it because of course resources get used up the run
- 21:22Speaker 1: on these. But anyway, according to Brenda Ordonez, thank you
- 21:28Speaker 1: Brenda for the Fox nineteen reporting writers accidentally triggered thousands
- 21:33Speaker 1: of emergency calls every year when phones are squeezed too
- 21:36Speaker 1: tight or bumped during drops and twists. That according to

- 21:50Speaker 1: Twelve Oh? Never mind, I thought that was twelve million.

- 21:59Speaker 1: twelve In four hundred and eighty seven nine to one
- 22:02Speaker 1: one calls were hanging up her silent calls. Dispatchers had
- 22:06Speaker 1: to call every single one of them back. Of course,
- 22:08Speaker 1: that uses up manpower and obviously it creates confusion. So

- 23:43Speaker 1: Officers said the woman appeared to be having a crisis
- 23:46Speaker 1: when a bystander stopped nearby. After stopping the woman, naked
- 23:54Speaker 1: woman got into the bystanders vehicle and then crashed it.
- 23:57Speaker 1: What woman taking the custody. Please say the charge or
- 24:00Speaker 1: just may be filed. That's the entirety of the reporting. Joe,
- 24:08Speaker 1: would you pull over to help a naked woman in
- 24:11Speaker 1: distress or someone you perceive to be in distress? No comment?
- 24:17Speaker 1: H lafay At Indiana West Lafayett specifically, twenty seven year
- 24:21Speaker 1: old Illinois man apparently decided to run naked through the
- 24:25Speaker 1: Really Plaza in top of Wingo Park, chasing people. Corn
- 24:30Speaker 1: to the West lafae At police Anthony R. Morale find
- 24:34Speaker 1: out Anthony Rmura, twenty seven of Illinois. Evanston, Illinois, started
- 24:39Speaker 1: his naked rop near the Really Plaza. May be pronouncing
- 24:41Speaker 1: that wrong. It's our I E H l E anyway
- 24:44Speaker 1: corner the police took who took up chase after he
- 24:47Speaker 1: sprinted across a pedestrian bridge. I love the wording on this.
- 24:53Speaker 1: More frolic in the fountain and resume chasing people. Corneed
- 24:57Speaker 1: police citing any nine to one calls that flooded in
- 25:02Speaker 1: around quarter after six on Wednesday. Officers got there started
- 25:06Speaker 1: chasing Morow, who at one point tried to take an
- 25:08Speaker 1: unintended police car. A taser ended the chase. They put
- 25:16Speaker 1: morow in jail and suspicion, suspicion of public nudity. Well,
- 25:21Speaker 1: considering the flood of nine one one calls reporting a
- 25:23Speaker 1: naked guy chasing them around, I think the suspicion word
- 25:26Speaker 1: probably isn't necessary anyway. Also possession of narcotics. There's your answer,
- 25:30Speaker 1: Joe attempted a tempted auto theft, resisting law enforcement and
- 25:34Speaker 1: obstructing traffic. Okay, see, you know, after all those BLM
- 25:42Speaker 1: rallies and rallies and anti file rallies and street takeover rallies,
- 25:46Speaker 1: there is a charge of obstructing traffic. I guess it
- 25:51Speaker 1: only goes to naked guys on drugs chasing people.
- 25:53Speaker 2: Around as this tradition.
- 25:55Speaker 1: Thank you, Joe. Let's go to Atlanta. Naked man with
- 25:59Speaker 1: an Firefighters met a man with a who was threatening
- 26:04Speaker 1: with a knife while responding to a building. Fire Police
- 26:07Speaker 1: are already responding to the air for report of a
- 26:09Speaker 1: naked guy walking around. Officers got to the scene and DONALDY.
- 26:15Speaker 1: Howell Parkway anyway, does that matter?
- 26:17Speaker 7: Not really?
- 26:17Speaker 1: This morning firefighters told him that the man began chasing
- 26:20Speaker 1: him with a knife. Investigators determined he had pulled a
- 26:23Speaker 1: couple of the fire alarms in the building. He was
- 26:25Speaker 1: taken into custody. No one hurt, thankfully. He is now
- 26:29Speaker 1: facing several charges, charges not listed here and no explanation
- 26:33Speaker 1: as to why he was running around naked. That's what
- 26:37Speaker 1: I'm going with to Joe Strecker, North Bay Village, Florida.
- 26:43Speaker 1: As tradition waiting for that one, of course, always have
- 26:45Speaker 1: Florida in the stack is stupid and yes, more naked guys.
- 26:51Speaker 1: Man Police officers have labeled a habitual felony offender got
- 26:56Speaker 1: ourselves a RECIDIVEUS tier arrested Sunday and Miami Dade County
- 26:59Speaker 1: police are bonded to the area of the fourteen h
- 27:01Speaker 1: a block of Kennedy Causeway after a man later identified
- 27:04Speaker 1: as Brighton Facin, thirty years old of Miami Gardens, was
- 27:10Speaker 1: seen naked on the road. When responding officers engaged with
- 27:13Speaker 1: this guy, a scuffle broke out, leading face into intentionally punching, kicking, biting,
- 27:18Speaker 1: and spitting at the officers that in the arrest form,
- 27:22Speaker 1: police said they were forced to deploy a taser when
- 27:25Speaker 1: Facing continued to violently resist. The officers simultaneously gain control
- 27:30Speaker 1: of his arms and legs using multiple sets of handcuffs.
- 27:35Speaker 1: Officer placed him in the back of the squad car.
- 27:37Speaker 1: Police said, Facing then urinated on himself and began spraying
- 27:42Speaker 1: the back of the police vehicle with his urine as
- 27:44Speaker 1: this tradition. Now here's an interesting twist. How do you
- 27:48Speaker 1: deal with a guy like that? Answer to the question,
- 27:52Speaker 1: police said, medics ultimately had to subdue Facing with ketamine.
- 28:01Speaker 1: I looked up at the right tie just just checker.
- 28:03Speaker 1: His eyebrows went up, like what, Yeah, I didn't know,
- 28:07Speaker 1: police of the medics that carried around academy to subdue
- 28:09Speaker 1: that's pretty good. He was ultimately taken to the Jackson
- 28:12Speaker 1: Memorial Hospital for medical treatment and evaluation to give him
- 28:15Speaker 1: NARC charge of four felony accounts of aggravated battery on
- 28:20Speaker 1: a law enforcement officer. Four felony counts are resisting an
- 28:22Speaker 1: officer of the violence, and one misdemeanor charge of indecent exposure. Hey,
- 28:27Speaker 1: what about the year? What about urinating in the back
- 28:29Speaker 1: of the police car. Isn't that like destruction of public
- 28:31Speaker 1: property or something? Anyway, Hell to the Turner Guildford Knight
- 28:36Speaker 1: Correction Center. Total bond twenty three thousand dollars oh I'm

- 29:24Speaker 1: Clairemont County for America's two hundred and fiftyeth and Robert
- 29:27Speaker 1: Borden's with the book Woke and Weaponized. Yes, Marxists have
- 29:30Speaker 1: taken over our schools and are indoctorating our children. Apparently
- 29:33Speaker 1: there is something you and I can do about it.
- 29:34Speaker 1: We'll learn together about that. At eight thirty sands phone
- 29:37Speaker 1: calls which we are back to the stack is stupid. Yes,
- 29:40Speaker 1: it's Friday, and we go to let us see I
- 29:44Speaker 1: think it's Australia Saint Augustine Capy Barrack Cafe. According to
- 29:50Speaker 1: the Saint Augustine Police Department, an incident occurred about three
- 29:53Speaker 1: o'clock in the morning while this Capy Barrack cafe was closed.
- 29:57Speaker 1: Athority say though thirty three year old James Alton Waters
- 30:02Speaker 1: forced entry into the cafe by breaking a glass door,
- 30:04Speaker 1: which triggered an alarm, alerting the police that something was
- 30:07Speaker 1: going on there and bringing him to the scene. Police
- 30:10Speaker 1: reported the Waters had entered a cafe as well as
- 30:12Speaker 1: a neighboring real estate office, apparently no clear motive aside
- 30:17Speaker 1: from simple mayhem. One person said there was real reasoning.
- 30:22Speaker 1: He broke into the two buildings ours in the real
- 30:23Speaker 1: estate agency next to us, equipped himself with a fire
- 30:26Speaker 1: extinguisher and utilized it. Why are you doing that? When
- 30:30Speaker 1: officers got there, Waters inside one of the businesses and
- 30:33Speaker 1: did not immediately comply with commands. He was ultimately taken
- 30:36Speaker 1: into custody using the fire extinguisher. Record of the cafe
- 30:40Speaker 1: owner quoted as saying he did thousands and thousands of
- 30:43Speaker 1: dollars in damage. He ransacked the place. This she'll say,
- 30:47Speaker 1: though nothing was stolen. Damage largely limited to shattered entryway
- 30:51Speaker 1: and the effects of the fire extinguisher discharged by this
- 30:54Speaker 1: naked guy phrasing. They say initial concern sent it on
- 31:01Speaker 1: the thirteen live capy bears that are housed inside the cafe,
- 31:05Speaker 1: but apparently the bar owner said of the cafe owner
- 31:07Speaker 1: said that none of them were present at the time
- 31:09Speaker 1: because they're transported to another site every night. Hmmm, the
- 31:13Speaker 1: Karen feeding of capy bears involves moving them, I guess anyway,
- 31:18Speaker 1: he'sa in the jail facing multiple charges burglary, felony, criminal mischief,
- 31:22Speaker 1: interfering with fire fighting equipment, and multiple counts of animal cruelty,
- 31:27Speaker 1: which seems to fly in the face of the idea
- 31:29Speaker 1: that none of the capy bears were harmed in the incident.
- 31:31Speaker 1: Moving on, Oh wow again every single week we got
- 31:36Speaker 1: two of them. This time it's going to Michigan. We
- 31:37Speaker 1: have a teacher sentenced earlier this week after pleading guilty
- 31:41Speaker 1: to having sex with a sixteen year old that she
- 31:44Speaker 1: was tutoring. Why are you doing that poor judgment, also
- 31:52Speaker 1: recording the sexual encounters that occurred in the child's home.
- 31:59Speaker 1: It is is doing idiot things because they're idiot. This idiot.
- 32:03Speaker 1: Joslyn Sandramon, twenty seven years old now is sentenced to
- 32:06Speaker 1: a four to fifteen years in prison Oakland County Circuit
- 32:09Speaker 1: cart after she pleaded guilty to third degree criminal sexual
- 32:12Speaker 1: conduct charges them from relationship that happened back in twenty
- 32:15Speaker 1: twenty three. At the time, she was a teacher at
- 32:17Speaker 1: the Oakside Prep Academy when she had sex with the
- 32:20Speaker 1: student that she was tutoring. Judge presiding over the case
- 32:23Speaker 1: and she recorded this sexual encounters again with the teen
- 32:26Speaker 1: at his home. She also, further error in judgment, told
- 32:33Speaker 1: another teacher about what she'd done. Fortunately, that teacher recognized
- 32:37Speaker 1: as no kidding when, thankfully she did say something out loud.
- 32:41Speaker 1: That teacher then let the police know about it, which
- 32:43Speaker 1: prompted an investigation. Her attorney is that his client has
- 32:48Speaker 1: unaddressed mental health issues. Well, who could argue with that.
- 32:54Speaker 1: She managed her a tremendous era of judgment here, he said,
- 32:57Speaker 1: a lot of it has to do with her own
- 32:58Speaker 1: mental health issues. She's going to have to undertake that
- 33:00Speaker 1: on her own. She understands that she's working forward and
- 33:03Speaker 1: trying to do her best to become a better person. Well,
- 33:05Speaker 1: she'll have four to fifteen years in the slammer to
- 33:08Speaker 1: do exactly that. Contemplate life and your actions. The judge
- 33:13Speaker 1: wanted to know what she was thinking. Her reply quote
- 33:17Speaker 1: not my best thinking. Close quote judge and response, this
- 33:22Speaker 1: is a serious risk taking behavior, taking advantage of a
- 33:24Speaker 1: miner and videotaping. You're having sex with a miner at
- 33:27Speaker 1: his home, right, and it's just disgusting. Victim impact statement
- 33:33Speaker 1: read Apparently the child had to be pulled from school,
- 33:36Speaker 1: was getting ridicule for his involvement in all this. She's
- 33:39Speaker 1: got a register as a sex offender for the rest
- 33:41Speaker 1: of her life. Oakland County Prosecutor, woman named Karen McDonald
- 33:45Speaker 1: said that while a sixteen year old can legally consent,
- 33:50Speaker 1: at least in this state, that does not apply when
- 33:54Speaker 1: it involves a teacher. Amen to that, pivoting over to
- 33:58Speaker 1: a parallel type of case, We've got a Port char At,
- 34:00Speaker 1: Florida where a teacher's now facing felony charge after investigator
- 34:03Speaker 1: said she had sex with a seventeen year old student
- 34:05Speaker 1: on campus on two occasions. Detectives alerted earlier this week
- 34:12Speaker 1: to a possible unlawful sexual activity to Port Charlotte High School.
- 34:16Speaker 1: Be'st good to say they developed probable cause and arrested
- 34:18Speaker 1: thirty seven year old Heather M. Mashburn Smith hyphenated mashburn Smith,
- 34:23Speaker 1: provided a confession and then was charged with unlawful activity
- 34:26Speaker 1: with certain minors. Charged is enhanced to a first degree
- 34:30Speaker 1: felony because of her position as a teacher. Again, the teachers,
- 34:33Speaker 1: you've got a higher level of responsibility, higher level of accountability,
- 34:36Speaker 1: and you shouldn't be having sex with your students.
- 34:40Speaker 2: What is wrong?
- 34:41Speaker 1: We can argue with that five point fifty five another
- 34:44Speaker 1: reason when need to talk about the education system. So
- 34:47Speaker 1: I since I think about Garri see de talk station front.
- 34:50Speaker 1: Thomas here wishing everyone a very happy Friday Tech Friday,
- 34:54Speaker 1: of course, named after the day Dave had or bottom

- 35:29Speaker 1: why Claire's going to join the program at eight oh
- 35:31Speaker 1: five talk about that. Finally, Robert Robert Borton's It's got
- 35:37Speaker 1: a book called Woke and Weaponized, How Karl Marx Won
- 35:40Speaker 1: the Battle for American Education and fortunately subtitle how we
- 35:44Speaker 1: Can Win it Back. Pay attention to the education system.
- 35:48Speaker 1: You will come to the quick realization it is, in
- 35:51Speaker 1: fact a bunch of indoctrination camps out there in the world.
- 35:53Speaker 1: That's all it is. And our children are being dumbed down.
- 35:57Speaker 1: And I'm convinced that this whole idea of equity is
- 35:59Speaker 1: nothing doing nothing more than intentionally dumbing down the collective.
- 36:02Speaker 1: So we can all be brainwashingto believing that this Marxist
- 36:05Speaker 1: crap actually is good and positive and works for any
- 36:08Speaker 1: single human being when it demonstraly has been an epic
- 36:11Speaker 1: failure time and time again. Every time it's tried, it
- 36:14Speaker 1: results in economic calamity and misery and a lot of
- 36:18Speaker 1: murders too. Check out the purgase from the left side
- 36:21Speaker 1: of the Ledger. If you think it's a great thing,
- 36:23Speaker 1: you got to get rid of the dissenters in a
- 36:25Speaker 1: Marxist regime because they always stand up and start making
- 36:27Speaker 1: logical and common sense points five one, three, seven, nine fifty,
- 36:31Speaker 1: five hundred, eight hundred and eighty two to three talk
- 36:32Speaker 1: pound five fifty on AT and T phones. Before I
- 36:34Speaker 1: move forward, let's se what CJ's got this morning. CJ,
- 36:37Speaker 1: Happy Friday, Thanks for calling into the show.
- 36:40Speaker 6: Oh, thank you very much.
- 36:41Speaker 3: Can you know your topic today is absolutely perfect on
- 36:45Speaker 3: absolutely the worst so called made up dumbis stupidest holiday
- 36:50Speaker 3: or if you even want to call it a holiday
- 36:52Speaker 3: because people now think it is May Day. Yeah, it
- 36:55Speaker 3: is the stupidest say it is pure Marxism. And as
- 36:59Speaker 3: a public'school teacher, I can tell you this much. I
- 37:02Speaker 3: teach my students all the time, what's the first thing
- 37:04Speaker 3: the fascist did, What's the first thing imperialist Japan did,
- 37:08Speaker 3: What's the first thing the Marxist did? By the way
- 37:11Speaker 3: the fascists, while they may not be pure Marxists, they
- 37:14Speaker 3: do derived from Marx is that they take away free speech,
- 37:19Speaker 3: and they take away the ability to disagree and the
- 37:22Speaker 3: ability to be able to listen to somebody else, and
- 37:26Speaker 3: that ultimately destroys imagination. And that is why you see
- 37:31Speaker 3: a lot of these former Eastern Bloc countries such as Russia,
- 37:36Speaker 3: such as other places where they don't have free speech.
- 37:39Speaker 3: There is no imagination, there is no ability to do
- 37:42Speaker 3: some of the things that the United States has ever been.
- 37:45Speaker 4: Able to do.
- 37:46Speaker 3: And Marxism's first enemy is not the rich, it's not
- 37:51Speaker 3: all of his stuff that they claim it is. It
- 37:53Speaker 3: is speech, and it is the ability to be able
- 37:56Speaker 3: to communicate. And I will tell you something you can't.
- 37:59Speaker 3: You see a lot of it in the readings that
- 38:01Speaker 3: I have, and you're one hundred percent right. This whole
- 38:05Speaker 3: concept of equity grading and equity teaching. Let me tell
- 38:10Speaker 3: you something. These kids, they may get frustrated with me
- 38:14Speaker 3: that I force them to read at grade level, but
- 38:16Speaker 3: by the end of the year and the following years,
- 38:19Speaker 3: when they get into the tougher grades, they always come
- 38:21Speaker 3: back to me and say the same thing. I hated
- 38:24Speaker 3: your class, But I am better prepared for what I'm
- 38:26Speaker 3: doing in trade school, or better prepared for what I
- 38:30Speaker 3: did in a college class that they're taking in high school,
- 38:35Speaker 3: whatever it might be. If you're a parent out there,
- 38:38Speaker 3: force your teachers to teach at grade level or above
- 38:42Speaker 3: because your kids may not be there right now. But
- 38:45Speaker 3: you know, just like a video game, they hate failure
- 38:48Speaker 3: as much as you do, and they're going to stick
- 38:50Speaker 3: through it and they want to show that they can
- 38:53Speaker 3: do it. And when we let kids just just fall
- 38:56Speaker 3: back behind and do what we think they are, they're
- 39:00Speaker 3: going to do exactly as they think.
- 39:02Speaker 7: Will we believe in them?
- 39:04Speaker 1: Cee j Let mc real quick question, you're and maybe
- 39:06Speaker 1: you overstated to a certain degree, but I wrote that
- 39:08Speaker 1: forced teachers to, you know, have the kids read at
- 39:11Speaker 1: grade level. I hear that, and I understand and I
- 39:13Speaker 1: agree with it, But how much benefit I know the
- 39:16Speaker 1: answer to this question because in the Thomas household, we
- 39:18Speaker 1: were reading to the children before they started going to school,
- 39:21Speaker 1: and our children that you know, we were able to
- 39:24Speaker 1: master reading early on because we read a lot at home.
- 39:27Speaker 1: It's fun, it's simple to do, it's enjoyable for you.
- 39:30Speaker 1: It creates a great bonding experience. Any parent out there
- 39:33Speaker 1: that once they have a great experience with their kids,
- 39:34Speaker 1: teach them how to read. How important CJ. Getting to
- 39:37Speaker 1: my point is parental involvement in children's education.
- 39:43Speaker 3: You know you talk about like the teachers. I think
- 39:45Speaker 3: that's the biggest issue today is that so many parents
- 39:49Speaker 3: advocate to the teach.
- 39:50Speaker 1: Yes.
- 39:51Speaker 3: And it's not just the education, it's the behavior. It's
- 39:54Speaker 3: all the stuff that the parents. And I'm not saying
- 39:57Speaker 3: every parent in every situation. A lot of these parents
- 40:01Speaker 3: who just are like I want to have fun with
- 40:04Speaker 3: my kid. I want to be their friend. Guess what,
- 40:06Speaker 3: You're not their friend. They only get one mom and
- 40:08Speaker 3: dad in life. Be their mom and dad. And guess what,
- 40:12Speaker 3: at fifty years old, like I am now, man, there
- 40:14Speaker 3: ain't nobody I want to be around more than my father.
- 40:17Speaker 3: And when and when that man, unfortunately passes away, there'll
- 40:22Speaker 3: be nobody I will miss more on this face of
- 40:24Speaker 3: this earth than your father.
- 40:26Speaker 8: Be their parent.
- 40:28Speaker 3: Discipline them, teach them. Discipline is for both good and bad.
- 40:33Speaker 3: The greatest discipline my parents taught me was that when
- 40:36Speaker 3: my dad went to work as a firefighter when I
- 40:38Speaker 3: was very young, he went to work every morning at
- 40:41Speaker 3: five o'clock, so that meant I was up at four
- 40:43Speaker 3: o'clock to have breakfast because he was gone for twenty
- 40:46Speaker 3: four hours with him. So guess what I did before
- 40:48Speaker 3: I went to school. He taught me how to read
- 40:50Speaker 3: the newspaper. He taught me how to critically think.
- 40:53Speaker 4: He taught me to not.
- 40:55Speaker 3: Waste those three hours, which I still did watch cartoons,
- 40:59Speaker 3: but enjoy something other than what was around. You take
- 41:03Speaker 3: the time that you're awake and be productive. And I
- 41:07Speaker 3: think a lot of parents missed that aspect of force
- 41:11Speaker 3: your child to be productive at something, because when they
- 41:15Speaker 3: get into school, they're going to understand what productive looks like.
- 41:19Speaker 1: I cannot thank you enough CJ for your words this morning.
- 41:22Speaker 1: I salute you as a teacher for having concern for
- 41:25Speaker 1: education your children, to insist that they'd be able to
- 41:27Speaker 1: work at grade level skills and accomplish those before sending
- 41:31Speaker 1: them off into the wilderness. And for your respect and
- 41:33Speaker 1: love for your father, because your comments reminded me Dad.
- 41:37Speaker 1: And this is not in any way, shape or form
- 41:38Speaker 1: to discount the wonderful benefits my mom gave me by
- 41:41Speaker 1: way of education, because she was there throughout my childhood
- 41:43Speaker 1: doing exactly that. But was at the dinner table that
- 41:47Speaker 1: my dad really was wonderful at this whole idea of
- 41:50Speaker 1: critical thinking. We talked about politics, We talked about what
- 41:53Speaker 1: our politicians were doing and the impact that whatever they
- 41:57Speaker 1: were doing might have on you and me out here
- 41:59Speaker 1: the unwellses, and we talked about economics, and we got
- 42:03Speaker 1: heated arguments over the table. Although my dad and I
- 42:05Speaker 1: were always on the same side of the political ledger.
- 42:07Speaker 1: Apologies to my sister out there, if she's listening, I
- 42:09Speaker 1: know she's not, but she quite often got was on
- 42:12Speaker 1: the wrong side. I think logically and reasonably. My dad
- 42:15Speaker 1: would both argue we had the right answer, and we
- 42:17Speaker 1: were right, but we engaged in the debate. Sometimes it
- 42:21Speaker 1: didn't always end well, but we did it. I always
- 42:23Speaker 1: look forward to dinner time. That's where I came a
- 42:26Speaker 1: political age, and that's why I've been sort of interested
- 42:28Speaker 1: in politics since I was in like fifteen years old.
- 42:31Speaker 1: Just really a salute Dad, I miss you, man, I
- 42:33Speaker 1: miss you. See what Joyce has got. Joyce, thanks for calling.
- 42:36Speaker 1: Welcome to the Morning Showing. Happy Friday, Thank you, Brian.
- 42:39Speaker 9: Happy Friday to you as well.
- 42:42Speaker 5: I'm just going to chime in.
- 42:43Speaker 9: On that education thing. Because I was in the service,
- 42:48Speaker 9: I got out, I went back to undergrad as a
- 42:51Speaker 9: grown up, and so just like fifteen years.
- 42:54Speaker 8: Ago, out oh wow, my bachelor's.
- 42:57Speaker 5: However, I will tell you this.
- 43:00Speaker 9: I sat in the classrooms and I listened to what
- 43:03Speaker 9: these professors were saying. And believe me, it was one
- 43:06Speaker 9: hundred and doctor nation.
- 43:09Speaker 5: You know, I was a grown up.
- 43:11Speaker 9: I had done military stint, I had been in the
- 43:13Speaker 9: professional environment. So all this stuff I knew was nonsense.
- 43:17Speaker 9: I pushed back a lot.
- 43:19Speaker 5: I will tell you this.
- 43:20Speaker 9: The other kids in there, they were afraid, ye to
- 43:24Speaker 9: speak up.
- 43:26Speaker 10: They were afraid they held hostage. First of all, a
- 43:30Speaker 10: lot of them, this is their first time out of
- 43:32Speaker 10: their mom and you know, sphere, and so this was
- 43:37Speaker 10: an adult.
- 43:38Speaker 9: They were listening. They were afraid to say anything. I
- 43:41Speaker 9: pushed back, and I'm telling you so often I would
- 43:46Speaker 9: leave the classroom and a student here, a student they
- 43:49Speaker 9: were come up and they would thank me for saying, hey,
- 43:53Speaker 9: you know I was. They're afraid, they hold their grades hostage.
- 43:57Speaker 9: The kids are afraid, you know.
- 44:00Speaker 1: So I cannot imagine what it is like to go
- 44:04Speaker 1: back to school in this education environment as an adult
- 44:07Speaker 1: with your life experience. I mean I can hear it
- 44:09Speaker 1: in your voice, probably frightening along those lines. But you
- 44:12Speaker 1: know what, it reminds me of the meeting that we
- 44:14Speaker 1: were all in when we were working and you had
- 44:16Speaker 1: that hour long weekly meeting. We all go into the room,
- 44:19Speaker 1: we all hump frump, and the boss is in the
- 44:20Speaker 1: room and the boss says something really stupid, like, you know,
- 44:23Speaker 1: anybody think this is a bad idea, and no one
- 44:25Speaker 1: will raise their hands, and you all kind of looking
- 44:26Speaker 1: at each other, going, do you want to disagree with
- 44:28Speaker 1: the boss? No, that's what happens. No one's bold enough
- 44:31Speaker 1: to stand up and say, wait a second, the emperor
- 44:34Speaker 1: has no clothes. That's you, Joyce, and God bless.
- 44:36Speaker 7: You for it.
- 44:37Speaker 1: I'm sure some students in that room are really appreciative,
- 44:39Speaker 1: as well as indicated by the comments after the class.
- 44:42Speaker 1: You know what, if more students were even a bit bolder,
- 44:44Speaker 1: you probably would have had a whole lot more students
- 44:46Speaker 1: that approached you after class thanking you if they were
- 44:49Speaker 1: well bold enough to go over and thank you.
- 44:52Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean it was.
- 44:53Speaker 9: It's actually it is scary.
- 44:55Speaker 8: And again I'm a teacher now, but I'm semi retired.
- 44:59Speaker 5: I just subset.
- 45:00Speaker 9: But it's frightening because these kids truly are afraid to
- 45:05Speaker 9: speak up, whether it's from pair pressure from their fellow
- 45:09Speaker 9: students or that their teacher is gonna mark them down,
- 45:13Speaker 9: you know, because they're not speaking, they're what they're supposed
- 45:16Speaker 9: to be speaking.
- 45:17Speaker 5: So, I mean, I feel really bad for the kids.
- 45:20Speaker 1: I do too. I do too. It's that group think mentality.
- 45:23Speaker 1: You know, you're all lemmings running in metaphorical levings, running
- 45:26Speaker 1: for the cliff, and you know there's bunch of them
- 45:27Speaker 1: in there going is this a good idea? We're getting
- 45:29Speaker 1: ready to run over a cliff? You know what, We're
- 45:30Speaker 1: gonna die if we do this. Come on, everybody's doing
- 45:32Speaker 1: a dad? Amen, brother, Amen, keep it up. Joyce, God
- 45:37Speaker 1: bless you for doing what you did and speaking up.
- 45:40Speaker 1: Someone's got to do it, and that's you. I'm talking
- 45:42Speaker 1: to you, not Joyce in that particular case.
- 45:50Speaker 2: Six.
- 45:52Speaker 1: I think five KRC detalk station obviously a Friday. Those
- 45:56Speaker 1: familiar with the KRC bumper music, like David, say hi today, Dad,
- 46:02Speaker 1: would you David, let's see tech Friday. You've got a
- 46:06Speaker 1: couple items I wanted to run through. Before we get
- 46:07Speaker 1: to Tech Friday, they've had her. Next. First off, I
- 46:11Speaker 1: got a kick out of this. I hate self checkout lines.
- 46:15Speaker 1: I mean, if I got one item or whatever, I
- 46:17Speaker 1: can go through the little thing a Kroger, that's okay.
- 46:18Speaker 1: But the one with the conveyor belt when you have
- 46:20Speaker 1: a regular full week's worth or more worth of groceries,
- 46:23Speaker 1: you got like nine hundred items in your cart, and
- 46:25Speaker 1: those things never work. It's standing there and the belt
- 46:27Speaker 1: goes back and forth. Anyway, people rip them off very easily, apparently,
- 46:30Speaker 1: and that's why a lot of retailers are pulling the
- 46:32Speaker 1: plug on self checkout machines. Walmart is getting rid of
- 46:36Speaker 1: all of them, it says, and they like the idea
- 46:41Speaker 1: of automation. Look, we don't have to pay somebody to
- 46:43Speaker 1: scan your goods. But however, the problems apparently, the fevery,
- 46:46Speaker 1: the theft of products inadvertent or otherwise outweighs the cost
- 46:51Speaker 1: of the salary. Self checkout lines extremely vulnerable theft. According
- 46:54Speaker 1: to experts, they see the rise in shoplifting is why
- 46:57Speaker 1: these self checkouts are getting are gonna get rid apparently.
- 47:00Speaker 1: According to a survey from last year, lending Tree did it.
- 47:03Speaker 1: Sixty nine percent of people who use them believe they
- 47:06Speaker 1: make it easier to steal. That's a belief self checkout users.
- 47:10Speaker 1: Many of them even admitted to theft well inintentionally or unintentionally.
- 47:14Speaker 1: They have both forms. Twenty seven percent have intentionally taken
- 47:19Speaker 1: an item without scanning. Thirty six percent of users admitted
- 47:24Speaker 1: they've accidentally left the store with an item that was
- 47:27Speaker 1: not scanned, although they say they didn't intentionally intend to steal.
- 47:30Speaker 1: Sixty one percent of those who accidentally took something say
- 47:33Speaker 1: of course they kept it. So they're going to put
- 47:37Speaker 1: real people behind the checkout lines now, So think about
- 47:40Speaker 1: that got benefits maybe a four to one k match
- 47:43Speaker 1: their salary collectively over all Walmart stores. I can only
- 47:52Speaker 1: conclude that there's more theft by way of dollar amount
- 47:56Speaker 1: than what they're going to have to pay for employees
- 47:58Speaker 1: to actually do the work for you. That's speaks volumes.
- 48:01Speaker 1: Maybe it's a reflection on America and its morality as well,
- 48:05Speaker 1: that that many people would be willing to steal right.
- 48:11Speaker 1: Another tech relating is this is a frightening thing and
- 48:14Speaker 1: real quick here, Iran. While it's trying to figure out
- 48:16Speaker 1: what it wants to do in connection with its negotiations
- 48:19Speaker 1: with US, or not negotiate. Of course, you have two
- 48:22Speaker 1: different wings of the Iranians. You got a moderate wing
- 48:24Speaker 1: that has reached out and apparently wants to sit down
- 48:27Speaker 1: and talk about a resolution. Then of course you got
- 48:30Speaker 1: the hardliners that are now talking about maybe going back
- 48:33Speaker 1: with kinetic force, and they are concluding that starting up
- 48:40Speaker 1: a shooting war might be less costly than continuing to
- 48:43Speaker 1: endure the prolonged blockade. Why because they see US screaming
- 48:47Speaker 1: and yelling about five dollars gasoline and know that that
- 48:50Speaker 1: price may only continue to go up, bringing pressure on
- 48:52Speaker 1: Donald Trump of the administration. But if the hardliners to
- 48:58Speaker 1: prevail on this, one of the things was I identified
- 49:01Speaker 1: the internet cables. The Islamic Revolutionary Guard is threatened to
- 49:06Speaker 1: step up escalation by cutting the phone cables in the
- 49:09Speaker 1: Strait of horn Moves, and sadly enough, the Revolutionary Guard
- 49:12Speaker 1: link tans in Them news agency recently published a map
- 49:17Speaker 1: of the undersea internet cables that crossed the Strait of
- 49:20Speaker 1: horn Moves sort of suggested it was a veiled threat.
- 49:24Speaker 1: So that is I think about that quite often. I
- 49:27Speaker 1: mean I was thinking about that a bit when we
- 49:29Speaker 1: were dealing with the Ukrainians and the Russian conflict that
- 49:32Speaker 1: broke out, the war that broke out. There's a lot
- 49:34Speaker 1: of internet cables and apparently they have been cut before.
- 49:37Speaker 1: They are easy to cut. You can imagine the ripple
- 49:39Speaker 1: effect that would have no Internet, no communications, and presumably
- 49:43Speaker 1: at the same time no cell phones. Right, So just
- 49:46Speaker 1: keep your I don't want to say popcorn out on that.
- 49:50Speaker 1: Pay attention though. The lights can go off in a
- 49:52Speaker 1: moment's time, and that's something tech Friday's Day of Hatter
- 49:54Speaker 1: tells us about. All the time coming up, your smart
- 49:58Speaker 1: devices are speaking to hackers. One of the three topics
- 50:01Speaker 1: go over with Dave. That'll be in the next segment.
- 50:03Speaker 1: First thing I do want to do is mention Oderic
- 50:05Speaker 1: six point thirty here fifty five KCD talk station, Happy Friday.
- 50:09Speaker 1: According to business courier interest it is the best in
- 50:14Speaker 1: the business right and when it comes to computer needs,
- 50:16Speaker 1: your business have computers, I presume so unless you're a
- 50:19Speaker 1: lude business, Dave Hatter and the crew at interest it
- 50:21Speaker 1: dot com are there to help you out avoid problems,
- 50:23Speaker 1: sol set up things, and maybe recover data. If you've
- 50:26Speaker 1: been hit by a hacker. I don't know if they
- 50:27Speaker 1: can solve the roadblocks problem. Dave's going to talk about
- 50:29Speaker 1: that right now. If you're interested in the articles that
- 50:32Speaker 1: Dave Hatter relies upon and support the topics we were
- 50:34Speaker 1: talking about here this morning, like this first article on roadblocks,
- 50:37Speaker 1: go to LinkedIn dot com and just search for Dave
- 50:40Speaker 1: Hatter interest it. You will definitely find him, and he
- 50:42Speaker 1: always attaches the links there in his site. Dave Hatter,
- 50:45Speaker 1: Welcome back to the Morning show, my friend. I appreciate
- 50:47Speaker 1: you coming on the show every week and talking about
- 50:49Speaker 1: these important issues.
- 50:50Speaker 7: Yeah, always my pleasure, Brian. It seems like every week, Yeah,
- 50:54Speaker 7: the security related aspects of technology just become more and
- 50:58Speaker 7: more of a concern, whether it's you know, privacy related things.
- 51:02Speaker 7: You know, we could talk for your whole show totally
- 51:06Speaker 7: every week just on these things. So I appreciate you
- 51:08Speaker 7: having me on.
- 51:09Speaker 1: And geez it's I hope the powers that be behind
- 51:13Speaker 1: the scenes, whoever's responsible for all these security nightmares that
- 51:16Speaker 1: you raised through our attention every week, are really hard
- 51:19Speaker 1: at work twenty four to seven trying to get in
- 51:21Speaker 1: front of these challenges. You know, the light switch going off,
- 51:25Speaker 1: I mean it's I just mentioned about the undersea cables
- 51:28Speaker 1: being cut by the Iranians. That's something they could possibly do.
- 51:31Speaker 1: Anybody anywhere in the world could do that, and then
- 51:33Speaker 1: the lights go out and we can't communicate. That's a
- 51:35Speaker 1: massive problem.
- 51:37Speaker 7: Well, you're right, and this is the point I'm trying
- 51:40Speaker 7: to make all the time, Brian. When people tell me
- 51:41Speaker 7: they're not worried about this, they don't take it seriously.
- 51:44Speaker 7: They don't care about privacy. They got nothing to steal,
- 51:46Speaker 7: et cetera. Right, both as individuals and as organizations. It's like, well, okay,
- 51:51Speaker 7: our entire society is digital. Now. Who in your listening
- 51:54Speaker 7: audience out there do you think spends less time online
- 51:57Speaker 7: today for their work, for their entertainment, shopping for banking,
- 52:01Speaker 7: etcenter than they did five years ago. I would bet
- 52:03Speaker 7: you almost everyone out there has a smartphone. You know,
- 52:07Speaker 7: their businesses are now all automated, they're all interconnected. So
- 52:11Speaker 7: to your point, brain, yeah, bank accounts. To your point,
- 52:15Speaker 7: whether it's someone cuts the undersea cables, someone knocks out
- 52:18Speaker 7: the power grids, someone knocks out the telecom grid, someone
- 52:21Speaker 7: just takes down a large internet service provider like Google
- 52:24Speaker 7: or Microsoft or Cloud flare. I mean, think back, think
- 52:27Speaker 7: back to what we saw just over two years ago.
- 52:31Speaker 7: Crowd Strike, a company that makes software that's designed to
- 52:33Speaker 7: protect you from these kinds of threats keep your systems
- 52:37Speaker 7: online and functioning correctly due to a software issue, took
- 52:41Speaker 7: down millions of systems. So again, I can't stress enough
- 52:46Speaker 7: for businesses, it's important to both have a strong defense
- 52:50Speaker 7: against these things. So nothing is perfect, And I would
- 52:54Speaker 7: argue today because the attacks are coming so quickly from
- 52:57Speaker 7: so many different channels and are becoming more difficult to
- 53:00Speaker 7: defend against because of the speed and the complexity thanks
- 53:03Speaker 7: to AI. You have to have systems that are resilient,
- 53:06Speaker 7: they can be recovered quickly, good backups that you test regularly,
- 53:10Speaker 7: backups that are off site and can't be touched in
- 53:13Speaker 7: the event of an incident. And one last thing before
- 53:16Speaker 7: we get to the roadblocks. Well, you know, an incident
- 53:18Speaker 7: isn't always cyber Brian. It could be equipment failure, it
- 53:21Speaker 7: could be natural disaster. So you know, if you think
- 53:25Speaker 7: your business can survive without good backups and the ability
- 53:28Speaker 7: to recover, okay, maybe good.
- 53:31Speaker 1: Luck with that. Well we still got to have time
- 53:32Speaker 1: to get roadblocks in here. But your last topic we
- 53:34Speaker 1: can take first about the smart devices speaking to hackers.
- 53:38Speaker 1: I think kind of is a corollary discussion. Because every hospital, power,
- 53:42Speaker 1: ammunisical water system in America is running on a network
- 53:45Speaker 1: of connected devices. This is an area of real concern
- 53:47Speaker 1: for security. So once't you address this one briefly?
- 53:50Speaker 7: Absolutely, Brian, And the Internet of things aka smart device
- 53:54Speaker 7: is now. If you follow me on LinkedIn as you mentioned,
- 53:56Speaker 7: or x or follow my substack, I'm talking about these
- 53:59Speaker 7: things all the time. The Internet of things, so called
- 54:02Speaker 7: smart devices, are not very smart. They're not focused on
- 54:04Speaker 7: your privacy or security. To your point, they're everywhere. And
- 54:08Speaker 7: it's not just these consumer grade devices like sweepers and doorbells, right,
- 54:12Speaker 7: It's sensors and industrial plants, it's valves, it's train switching equipment,
- 54:17Speaker 7: it's cranes and ports. We talked about this last week.
- 54:20Speaker 7: The the yes, the secular modules is what I'm trying
- 54:28Speaker 7: to say. In all of these things that make them
- 54:30Speaker 7: able to connect to the internet, use Wi Fi things
- 54:33Speaker 7: like that. Right, most of these chips come from China.
- 54:36Speaker 7: China and the United States are not on the best
- 54:39Speaker 7: of terms. Could these chips have back doors vulnerabilities. Could
- 54:43Speaker 7: they be remotely turned off because they have to remotely
- 54:46Speaker 7: connect to get software updates? The things we talk about
- 54:49Speaker 7: all the time, Brian. But this article, it's just this
- 54:52Speaker 7: focus is more on the privacy side of it. But
- 54:54Speaker 7: as we add more and more software into things, as
- 54:56Speaker 7: we make things smart, as they get connected. There's a
- 54:59Speaker 7: really famous cybersecurity guy who says, if it's smart, it's
- 55:02Speaker 7: it's vulnerable. And I couldn't agree with that more. But
- 55:05Speaker 7: this article is saying, you know, you have all these
- 55:07Speaker 7: connected devices. If they're astat knows when you leave your
- 55:10Speaker 7: doorbell knows when you hit the street. Hospital down the
- 55:13Speaker 7: street has infusion pumps, patient monitors, We've seen hospitals get
- 55:16Speaker 7: hit and knocked out. But they're basically saying, you know,
- 55:21Speaker 7: these devices are potentially listening to you, if they have
- 55:25Speaker 7: microphones watching you, if they have cameras collecting your data.
- 55:29Speaker 7: So even if the company that makes the device isn't
- 55:32Speaker 7: doing anything that various with it, are they selling your
- 55:34Speaker 7: data to another company? Vernment And yeah, and it's not
- 55:38Speaker 7: just it's a privacy issue, right, I mean that is
- 55:41Speaker 7: a concern. It's definitely a concern for me. It's how
- 55:44Speaker 7: is that data being used. We've seen examples around the world,
- 55:47Speaker 7: including the recent attack in Iran where cameras where devices
- 55:53Speaker 7: were hacked so that they could collect intelligence to use
- 55:56Speaker 7: for military attacks, and this with Russia. So more of
- 56:00Speaker 7: these so called smart devices that we have in our environment,
- 56:04Speaker 7: I've seen estimates that it's over thirty billion. Now. Now again,
- 56:07Speaker 7: this isn't just the consumer stuff, it's the stuff in
- 56:09Speaker 7: industrial settings. Right. The more of these we have, if
- 56:13Speaker 7: we're not focused on building these things so that they
- 56:16Speaker 7: are secure and resilient, we are just literally opening portals
- 56:21Speaker 7: for the bad guys to attack. And this is why
- 56:23Speaker 7: I'm constantly trying to warn people until the whole business
- 56:28Speaker 7: model of these things changes and they're built with security
- 56:31Speaker 7: and privacy first, as opposed to speed the market, easy
- 56:34Speaker 7: to use market share data collection. We are creating more
- 56:39Speaker 7: and more and more holes that can be attacked and
- 56:42Speaker 7: used against us, both individually as organizations and then frankly
- 56:46Speaker 7: from a nation state perspective from adversarial attackers.
- 56:49Speaker 1: Well, I hope they get ahead of it before what
- 56:51Speaker 1: seems to be inevitable happens and the lights do go out,
- 56:54Speaker 1: don't go away more. With David, we'll deal with the
- 56:55Speaker 1: roadblocks thing coming up next. First cross country mortgage, whether
- 56:58Speaker 1: you're refinancing your existalk station so forty one pick you
- 57:02Speaker 1: about KRC detalk station businesses rely on interest it and
- 57:06Speaker 1: Dave had Ter and his crew to help you out
- 57:08Speaker 1: in all your computer related needs. And I guess don't
- 57:11Speaker 1: be one of the eighty eighty nine million people who
- 57:14Speaker 1: make daily visits to this roadblocks site. That's a lot
- 57:17Speaker 1: of active daily users. But there's a bigger problem than
- 57:20Speaker 1: that on roadblocks Dave Geez Louise child exploitation.
- 57:26Speaker 7: Yeah, this is disturbing, and I want to be clear, Brian.
- 57:30Speaker 7: You know there are all kinds of allegations and so
- 57:32Speaker 7: forth here and lawsuits out there, and Roadblocks has gotten
- 57:37Speaker 7: a lot of the scrutiny. Now I don't use roadblocks.
- 57:41Speaker 7: I don't have any kids that play roadblocks anymore. But
- 57:44Speaker 7: I want to be clear. It's not just roadblocks, it's
- 57:47Speaker 7: anywhere where someone can have access to your kids online.
- 57:52Speaker 7: You are going to see the sort of thing we're
- 57:55Speaker 7: going to talk about here. Okay, so I'm going to
- 57:57Speaker 7: come back to roadblocks, but whether it's mine at all,
- 58:00Speaker 7: of duty fill in the blank for any popular game
- 58:04Speaker 7: because these games are you know, massive multiplayer games where
- 58:08Speaker 7: you can still go old school and display by yourself,
- 58:11Speaker 7: but most people play online against other players. Fortnight.
- 58:16Speaker 1: Yeah, a bunch of people from literally anywhere in the
- 58:18Speaker 1: world with headphones on, talking to each other and while
- 58:21Speaker 1: playing the game. I get it.
- 58:22Speaker 7: Yeah, that's exactly right.
- 58:24Speaker 1: I'm not your child is right there.
- 58:26Speaker 7: I'm not sure that you know, maybe grandparents who haven't
- 58:29Speaker 7: played these games really understand or haven't seen them. You know,
- 58:32Speaker 7: my these kinds of games where you could play against
- 58:35Speaker 7: each other became a thing, like, you know, right as
- 58:37Speaker 7: sort of the right as I was becoming an adult.
- 58:40Speaker 7: You know, my older kids have all played this sort
- 58:42Speaker 7: of stuff. But it's you know, whether it's social media,
- 58:46Speaker 7: it's sites like discord, Slack, Reddit, if people can talk
- 58:51Speaker 7: to your kids, whether in chat or even worse you
- 58:54Speaker 7: like you said, with a headphone and the microphone, you're
- 58:56Speaker 7: gonna you're gonna have to think about this as a parent.
- 59:00Speaker 7: Reading from this article in the Boston Chronicle and a
- 59:02Speaker 7: letter sent to Roadblocks Sunday night, parents demanded at the
- 59:05Speaker 7: company sees what they called quote improper and shameful attempts
- 59:09Speaker 7: to force vulnerable sexually abused and exploited children into secret
- 59:12Speaker 7: arbitration pendings unquote. Signatories hail from Washington, California, Florida, and Texas,
- 59:17Speaker 7: detailing cases where children were allegedly targeted by predators. The
- 59:21Speaker 7: letter emphasized that these children quote or deserve quote their
- 59:24Speaker 7: day in court unquote. So again, if I were a
- 59:31Speaker 7: parent of young children or a grandparent of young children,
- 59:34Speaker 7: I would be talking I was a grand grandparent talking
- 59:38Speaker 7: to my kids. If I'm the parent, I would be
- 59:40Speaker 7: talking to my kids about, Hey, if you're online in
- 59:44Speaker 7: these games? Right, And because this article goes on the same,
- 59:46Speaker 7: one hundred and fifty parents sent a similar letter to
- 59:48Speaker 7: discord using the communication platform of facilitating predator contact with
- 59:53Speaker 7: miners who first interacted on roadblocks. Now, in theory, right,
- 59:57Speaker 7: kids aren't supposed to be playing these things because of
- 1:00:00Speaker 7: the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act unless they're over thirteen
- 1:00:04Speaker 7: or have their parents' permission. We know this sort of
- 1:00:07Speaker 7: stuff doesn't really work. You know, you and I have
- 1:00:10Speaker 7: talked about this off and on over the years, and
- 1:00:14Speaker 7: you know the behavior. I think another thing parents need
- 1:00:17Speaker 7: to think about is the companies that are building these games,
- 1:00:21Speaker 7: providing these platforms and so forth have an incentive to
- 1:00:24Speaker 7: get you to play the game, get on the platform,
- 1:00:27Speaker 7: and then stay there as long as possible. The longer
- 1:00:30Speaker 7: you're there, the more money they can make, whether it's
- 1:00:33Speaker 7: through showing you ads, collecting data they're going to sell,
- 1:00:37Speaker 7: getting you to buy in game items with real money.
- 1:00:39Speaker 7: This is a reminder, folks, that's the thing that you
- 1:00:42Speaker 7: sign up for a free game, but you can power
- 1:00:44Speaker 7: up and buy things you need to make the game,
- 1:00:47Speaker 7: you know, to become more powerful in the game, by
- 1:00:50Speaker 7: spending real world money in some cases. So there's a
- 1:00:53Speaker 7: natural incentive to want to keep you on these platforms,
- 1:00:57Speaker 7: in the game as long as possible, especially if the
- 1:01:00Speaker 7: game is free. Remember, Brian, we've said this a million
- 1:01:02Speaker 7: times on your show. If you're not paying with money,
- 1:01:05Speaker 7: you're paying with data. You are not the customer, you
- 1:01:07Speaker 7: are the product. So you know, I encourage everyone that
- 1:01:11Speaker 7: can hear this today to look into these things, understand
- 1:01:14Speaker 7: what's happening in these games on these platforms. And I'm
- 1:01:18Speaker 7: not saying that your kid can't play the game safely
- 1:01:21Speaker 7: or use the platform or whatever. I'm saying there are
- 1:01:24Speaker 7: bad people out there. We know this. People have been arrested,
- 1:01:27Speaker 7: people have gone to jail. Law enforcement has warned about this.
- 1:01:30Speaker 7: There are bad people out there using these platforms to
- 1:01:33Speaker 7: get to kids. You need to warn your kids about it.
- 1:01:36Speaker 7: You need to understand what these lawsuits are saying and
- 1:01:39Speaker 7: then decide, you know, does it make sense to let
- 1:01:41Speaker 7: them use certain platforms or play certain games, or at
- 1:01:43Speaker 7: least do it without any sort of parnal supervision, an
- 1:01:47Speaker 7: awareness for the child that this kind of thing is happening. Yeah, because,
- 1:01:51Speaker 7: you know, Brian, in some cases, this sex thirtation that
- 1:01:54Speaker 7: has happened as a result of one of these platforms
- 1:01:58Speaker 7: has led kids to kill them. Yes, right, you know,
- 1:02:01Speaker 7: so it's a serious concern. I x I encourage every
- 1:02:06Speaker 7: parent and grandparent to look into this. You know, find
- 1:02:09Speaker 7: my substack where all these links will be. Find me
- 1:02:12Speaker 7: through LinkedIn or x I share this stuff all the time,
- 1:02:15Speaker 7: learn about it, and warn your kids.
- 1:02:17Speaker 1: Yes. Absolutely, just keep them off the damn stuff period
- 1:02:21Speaker 1: in the story, if that's possible. Six. If you want
- 1:02:24Speaker 1: to think about GARCD talk station one more with tech
- 1:02:26Speaker 1: Boddy's Dave Hatter, interest dot Com, Dave had or digital IDs.
- 1:02:30Speaker 1: I guess Idaho is saying no to the mandatory digital
- 1:02:34Speaker 1: identification in any form. This sounds like it's coming to
- 1:02:37Speaker 1: a theater near us. What's the story on this one?
- 1:02:40Speaker 3: Uh?
- 1:02:40Speaker 7: Yeah, this was some good news on this front in
- 1:02:44Speaker 7: my opinion. So, Idaho, through Senate Bill twelve ninety nine,
- 1:02:50Speaker 7: has a new law that the governor signed off on
- 1:02:53Speaker 7: there that basically says you cannot be forced, as a
- 1:02:57Speaker 7: resident of Haido, Idaho to use digital ID. They say
- 1:03:02Speaker 7: in this article. Let's well, the bill creates section sixty
- 1:03:06Speaker 7: seven twenty three sixty four of the Idaho Code prohibiting
- 1:03:09Speaker 7: government anys from requiring quote any person to obtain, maintain, present,
- 1:03:13Speaker 7: or use digital identification unquote. Goes on to say that
- 1:03:16Speaker 7: approximately three quarters of US states are currently offering or
- 1:03:19Speaker 7: developing electronic driver's license. You know there's a push to
- 1:03:23Speaker 7: go this way. Now, before I come back to this,
- 1:03:26Speaker 7: I want to reach you another headline, Brian, and see
- 1:03:28Speaker 7: if you can connect the dots for me. Right, So
- 1:03:30Speaker 7: this is from tech Crunch. France confirms data breach at
- 1:03:34Speaker 7: a government at government agency that manages citizens' IDs. Now,
- 1:03:39Speaker 7: what what do you think could go wrong? Or or
- 1:03:43Speaker 7: going back to where we started with this segment and
- 1:03:44Speaker 7: have discussed so many times. What do you think could
- 1:03:47Speaker 7: go wrong with undersea cables, cut power grid down, telecom
- 1:03:52Speaker 7: grid down, Chinese mountware in all the chips and all
- 1:03:57Speaker 7: of this equipment. Nation state actor like Iran decides to
- 1:04:00Speaker 7: attack this equipment and turn it off. If your ID
- 1:04:03Speaker 7: and all of your money were digital, what do you
- 1:04:05Speaker 7: think could go wrong and what do you think might
- 1:04:07Speaker 7: happen if suddenly you could not identify yourself to get
- 1:04:10Speaker 7: to your money, or all your money was inaccessible for
- 1:04:14Speaker 7: some other reason because it's digital, or these systems were
- 1:04:17Speaker 7: just corrupted so your identity does not line up with
- 1:04:20Speaker 7: your money anymore. Because you know, technology always works perfectly. Oh,
- 1:04:23Speaker 7: we've never seen an example like ransomware where systems get
- 1:04:26Speaker 7: encrypted and destroyed, right, So what do you think would happen? Brian?
- 1:04:30Speaker 1: When we only have a couple of minutes left day,
- 1:04:32Speaker 1: we could talk for an hour and forty five minutes
- 1:04:35Speaker 1: on the potential downside of that and probably still not
- 1:04:38Speaker 1: cover all the areas.
- 1:04:40Speaker 7: It's very disturbing to me that we're rushing into so
- 1:04:44Speaker 7: much of this. And it's not that I'm against this stuff,
- 1:04:47Speaker 7: it's that it's moving very quickly. It's all really immature.
- 1:04:50Speaker 7: We're not thinking about the long term consequences of things like, well,
- 1:04:53Speaker 7: everything's digital and now the powers down, the telecom grid
- 1:04:56Speaker 7: that makes it all work is down. But real quick,
- 1:04:58Speaker 7: last couple things in here. The bill goes further than
- 1:05:01Speaker 7: a simple opt out. Prohibits public entities from denying, delaying, conditioning,
- 1:05:05Speaker 7: or reducing any service benefit, license, employment, education, or access
- 1:05:08Speaker 7: based on a person's refusal or inability to use digital ID.
- 1:05:12Speaker 7: And then they're going to explain it. So you know,
- 1:05:14Speaker 7: I'm hoping everyone that listens to this listens to this.
- 1:05:16Speaker 7: I've already reached out to all of the legislators I
- 1:05:19Speaker 7: know in Kentucky and said this is this is the way.
- 1:05:23Speaker 7: I hope everyone that is hearing us in Ohio, Indiana,
- 1:05:26Speaker 7: wherever else reaches out to their legislators. I'll be posting
- 1:05:30Speaker 7: this as a link in my substack from today's show,
- 1:05:33Speaker 7: so it'll be easy to find. And this is the
- 1:05:36Speaker 7: right direction. I'm not saying we should not have digital
- 1:05:39Speaker 7: idea at all. What I'm seeing is you should not
- 1:05:41Speaker 7: be required to use it. You should not be required
- 1:05:44Speaker 7: to use digital money, because there's just too much risk
- 1:05:47Speaker 7: in the system. Anything that is digital can be hacked.
- 1:05:50Speaker 7: We see this every day and this is the right direction.
- 1:05:54Speaker 7: So it's I agree worth folks time to read this.
- 1:05:56Speaker 1: My only concern is that the on a federal level,
- 1:05:59Speaker 1: they would man ate this digital idea and the federal
- 1:06:01Speaker 1: supremacy clause with Trump, Idaho's ban on it, any other
- 1:06:04Speaker 1: state that might choose to ban it.
- 1:06:06Speaker 7: Well, Brian, you know we can't even seem to get
- 1:06:08Speaker 7: them to care about your privacy at the federal level.
- 1:06:10Speaker 1: That's true.
- 1:06:10Speaker 7: You know, it doesn't seem like there's much happening now.
- 1:06:14Speaker 7: I don't know what's going on behind the scenes at
- 1:06:15Speaker 7: the federal level, but you know, I don't see any
- 1:06:20Speaker 7: direct actions on this. Now. We've talked about central bank
- 1:06:22Speaker 7: digital currency. There are people talking about it, there are
- 1:06:24Speaker 7: people that want it, but I haven't seen any cohesion
- 1:06:27Speaker 7: around this at the federal level to date the life
- 1:06:30Speaker 7: that i'm.
- 1:06:31Speaker 1: They tried to stop it with the legislation that was
- 1:06:33Speaker 1: passed to to refund part at least most of the
- 1:06:36Speaker 1: government the other day that had to be pulled. The
- 1:06:38Speaker 1: language had to be pulled because the Senate would not
- 1:06:40Speaker 1: abide with the UH with with prohibiting central bank digital currency.
- 1:06:43Speaker 1: So it sounds to me like that's probably coming in
- 1:06:45Speaker 1: our direction too, And what a privacy invasion that will be.
- 1:06:48Speaker 1: Every single dollar we spent in digital currency track they
- 1:06:52Speaker 1: know what you buy, where you buy it, when you
- 1:06:53Speaker 1: buy it. I hate that. David just frightens the hell
- 1:06:55Speaker 1: out of me.
- 1:06:57Speaker 7: I'm not a fan either, not only for all the
- 1:07:00Speaker 7: isn't you just stated, but again, if the system goes
- 1:07:02Speaker 7: down for whatever reason, especially for any extended period of
- 1:07:06Speaker 7: time than what you know.
- 1:07:08Speaker 1: And you say something like that out loud as we
- 1:07:10Speaker 1: part company day, we're gonna leave on a sour note.
- 1:07:12Speaker 1: I think about all the investments we all have or
- 1:07:15Speaker 1: digitize in the form of our four oh one K
- 1:07:17Speaker 1: plans or retirement plans. You can see it on paper,
- 1:07:19Speaker 1: it's there in the digital form. Look at your financial
- 1:07:21Speaker 1: planner's screen. Oh my god, it's right there. The electricity
- 1:07:25Speaker 1: goes out. I can't even see what's on the screen.
- 1:07:27Speaker 1: Where happened to my account? Right? It's yes, Dave Hatter.
- 1:07:33Speaker 1: That's why we have you to freak us out every
- 1:07:35Speaker 1: Friday for a half hour. We'll do it again next
- 1:07:37Speaker 1: Friday and heed Dave's advice. And if you need Dave's
- 1:07:39Speaker 1: help for your business interest it dot com. Thank you
- 1:07:42Speaker 1: to your company, and you Dave for doing what you
- 1:07:44Speaker 1: do every week here on the program. Have a wonderful weekend,
- 1:07:46Speaker 1: and I'll look forward to next week in another edition
- 1:07:48Speaker 1: of Let's Scare the hell out of my audience with
- 1:07:50Speaker 1: Dave Hatter.
- 1:07:52Speaker 7: Always my pleasure, Brian, look at look this stuff up yourself, folks,
- 1:07:55Speaker 7: don't take my word for it.
- 1:07:56Speaker 1: No, he's right. Thanks man. We have a great week again,
- 1:07:59Speaker 1: six fifty seven oh six at fifty five k r

- 1:08:33Speaker 1: it's been active in politics for decades. She's got to
- 1:08:35Speaker 1: join the program to talk about that. But more importantly,
- 1:08:37Speaker 1: what Claremont County is going to be doing for the
- 1:08:38Speaker 1: twoudred and fiftieth Celebration of America. Robert Borton's going to
- 1:08:42Speaker 1: generate a lot of interest this morning. He's got a
- 1:08:44Speaker 1: book about Marxism taking over our schools and how we
- 1:08:48Speaker 1: can do something about it. Woke and weaponized. That'll be
- 1:08:50Speaker 1: at eight thirty the meantime. Welcome back, and how come
- 1:08:52Speaker 1: I'm not looking across the board here at you? Signal
- 1:08:55Speaker 1: ninety nine. Follow her on Facebook if you want to
- 1:08:58Speaker 1: know all the details behind the scenes about what what's
- 1:09:00Speaker 1: going on in the police department Downtown Cincinnati, the fire department,
- 1:09:03Speaker 1: every other thing that's going on with city government. Welcome
- 1:09:06Speaker 1: back signal ninety nine.
- 1:09:08Speaker 8: Good morning. I didn't know you wanted me to come in,
- 1:09:11Speaker 8: or I would.
- 1:09:11Speaker 5: Have came in.
- 1:09:12Speaker 1: Are you kidding me? I love guests in studio. In
- 1:09:16Speaker 1: the studio, Oh, I hope it's not a bad place
- 1:09:19Speaker 1: to be here anyway. I enjoyed the face to face communication,
- 1:09:22Speaker 1: regardless of whether I agree with the person across from me.
- 1:09:24Speaker 1: And boy, how could I not agree with what you flag?
- 1:09:27Speaker 1: I don't know where do you want to start? I can?
- 1:09:29Speaker 1: I guess? I asked him this morning. I texted him
- 1:09:32Speaker 1: I han't heard back from Christopher smith Aman about how
- 1:09:34Speaker 1: the signature drive is going, because what we need is
- 1:09:36Speaker 1: Christopher Smitheman's proposal to amend the charter in downtown Cincinnati
- 1:09:40Speaker 1: to require seven of nine council members to approve the
- 1:09:44Speaker 1: hiring or firing of a police chief or fire chief.
- 1:09:47Speaker 1: That would solve the problems going on in connection with
- 1:09:49Speaker 1: police Chief Thiji and former fire Chief Washington, Might it not?
- 1:09:54Speaker 1: I know you're on the side of Christopher's proposal, aren't you?
- 1:09:58Speaker 8: Well I am, but I all, I still want to
- 1:10:00Speaker 8: say that it's a start. There's a whole revamp of
- 1:10:04Speaker 8: the entire charter that needs to be done. Of course
- 1:10:08Speaker 8: there wasn't time to get that done before this election,
- 1:10:11Speaker 8: but it is a start. But that you know, that
- 1:10:16Speaker 8: all comes down to Brian, how many people are all
- 1:10:21Speaker 8: of one mindset on city council and how many or not.
- 1:10:25Speaker 8: We don't have a balance on council anymore, we really don't.
- 1:10:30Speaker 8: So like with this particular council, it wouldn't matter. They'd
- 1:10:34Speaker 8: get their seven of nine true vote however they want it.
- 1:10:37Speaker 1: Well, it would require them to go on record and
- 1:10:39Speaker 1: do it and therefore be accountable for any decision that
- 1:10:42Speaker 1: was made. I mean, this provides the voters with with Okay,
- 1:10:45Speaker 1: I was right in voting for fill in the blank.
- 1:10:48Speaker 1: Oh look what that person did. I shouldn't have voted
- 1:10:50Speaker 1: for him. I'm not going to do it again next
- 1:10:51Speaker 1: time around. At least it has connection with public accountability.
- 1:10:55Speaker 1: Your representatis are supposed to represent your interest in If
- 1:10:57Speaker 1: you don't think they are, you vote them out of office.
- 1:11:00Speaker 1: Like that development, even if they are lockstep together.
- 1:11:02Speaker 8: Absolutely, and that is why I'm backing it, and that's
- 1:11:06Speaker 8: why I'm pushing it and endorsing it. And it's a
- 1:11:11Speaker 8: start now. Eventually, you know, we need to get some
- 1:11:14Speaker 8: of the big shiny brains together, and I have several
- 1:11:18Speaker 8: of them in mine, you know, to sit down and
- 1:11:21Speaker 8: completely revamp the charter. But that's not something that can
- 1:11:25Speaker 8: be done in time before this election. So this is
- 1:11:29Speaker 8: absolutely a phenomenal start. So it's better than what we have,
- 1:11:35Speaker 8: that's for sure.
- 1:11:35Speaker 1: No doubt about it. And I saw, based on a
- 1:11:37Speaker 1: post from Signal ninety nine on Facebook, former fire chief
- 1:11:41Speaker 1: what Mike Washington, who was terminated under sketchy circumstances and
- 1:11:45Speaker 1: who's got a lawsuitpending against the City of Cincinnati. He too,
- 1:11:48Speaker 1: has endorsed Christopher Smith's petition for the city Charter amendment,
- 1:11:52Speaker 1: so he's on board. He was a victim of these shenanigans.
- 1:11:56Speaker 5: Yes, yes, yes, absolutely, And we all know that I.
- 1:12:00Speaker 8: Love me some Chief Mike Washington.
- 1:12:02Speaker 1: Yeah, he's a good man. So his where is his
- 1:12:06Speaker 1: case in process? If you know? And I'm going to
- 1:12:09Speaker 1: put you on the spot, but we've all been expecting
- 1:12:11Speaker 1: the City Cincinnat's going to have to write him a
- 1:12:13Speaker 1: settlement check for wrongful termination. Do you know where we
- 1:12:15Speaker 1: are in process with Chief former Chief Washington?
- 1:12:19Speaker 3: Yep.
- 1:12:19Speaker 8: It'll drop this month.
- 1:12:21Speaker 3: So it should be.
- 1:12:24Speaker 8: I mean today May first, So it should definitely happen
- 1:12:28Speaker 8: sometime this month. Could be today, it could be next week,
- 1:12:32Speaker 8: it could be two weeks, but it's coming. And I again,
- 1:12:37Speaker 8: I don't believe that the federal court is going to
- 1:12:40Speaker 8: overturn the lower court's decision. And I think that the
- 1:12:44Speaker 8: city's in panic mode. And so I dropped a little
- 1:12:49Speaker 8: hot potato about ten minutes ago some developments yesterday with
- 1:12:54Speaker 8: the city of them given an a B play and
- 1:13:00Speaker 8: to one of those city attorneys and hr representatives of
- 1:13:06Speaker 8: the city that actually was in the room when Mike
- 1:13:10Speaker 8: Washington got terminated and she led the charge against Sherman
- 1:13:15Speaker 8: Smith getting terminated, and they just got handed a whole
- 1:13:20Speaker 8: massive mess over that. So Kelsey Bradio got the ad
- 1:13:24Speaker 8: plan yesterday, which is, for those of you that don't know,
- 1:13:30Speaker 8: it's either resign effective immediately, or we're going to fire you.
- 1:13:34Speaker 1: Oh so ultimatum time.
- 1:13:37Speaker 8: Oh yeah, that was yesterday. And here's the thing. I
- 1:13:41Speaker 8: have no love for Kelsey Radio because of what she's
- 1:13:46Speaker 8: done in her job. However, here's another shining example of
- 1:13:52Speaker 8: somebody that did exactly what they were told to do
- 1:13:55Speaker 8: by the city manager and then they lost their job
- 1:14:00Speaker 8: for it because the whole case just fell apart.
- 1:14:05Speaker 1: Well, that's that kind of sounds reminiscent of what happens
- 1:14:08Speaker 1: a former police chief thej doesn't it?
- 1:14:12Speaker 8: Absolutely? And Mike Washington so, and this one too is
- 1:14:17Speaker 8: over assist the chief sermons myth.
- 1:14:19Speaker 7: So.
- 1:14:21Speaker 8: Last year they accused Hermon Smith of sending classified emails
- 1:14:26Speaker 8: to Mike Washington, and CFD at the time had no
- 1:14:32Speaker 8: policy in place prohibiting them from sending an email and
- 1:14:37Speaker 8: the material certainly wasn't classified. They strenuously disagreed and tried
- 1:14:44Speaker 8: to fire Shermon Smiths and arbitration just came back and said,
- 1:14:48Speaker 8: not only did he not, you know, break any rule,
- 1:14:52Speaker 8: but you the city released these exact same records in
- 1:14:57Speaker 8: a public record or wise, So how are they classified?
- 1:15:02Speaker 5: So, yeah, that was such a devastating blow to them
- 1:15:06Speaker 5: that you know that when that happened. When that happened, the.
- 1:15:13Speaker 8: Hologram chief sat there was his mouth open, and then
- 1:15:17Speaker 8: a little while later, with a little week in the
- 1:15:19Speaker 8: knees had to be transported by squad to the hospital
- 1:15:23Speaker 8: where they looked at him and released him.
- 1:15:27Speaker 1: You referred to the current fire chief the hologram chief.
- 1:15:30Speaker 1: You refer to the current fire chief because you tang hologram.
- 1:15:34Speaker 8: He's got all kinds of names. Those are the only
- 1:15:36Speaker 8: ones that I can say that won't get that won't
- 1:15:39Speaker 8: make you hit the dump button.
- 1:15:40Speaker 1: Okay, be careful on that one.
- 1:15:42Speaker 8: And hey, hey, Brian, we have a safe word now,
- 1:15:45Speaker 8: me and you. I'm taking pineapple or worst to fires.
- 1:15:49Speaker 8: So anytime one of us wants to say a curse word,
- 1:15:54Speaker 8: we need to we need to say pineapple.
- 1:15:56Speaker 1: Wow. Okay. And looking into the future, it'd be one
- 1:16:00Speaker 1: of those times I wish I had a dollar for
- 1:16:02Speaker 1: every time I had to say pineapple based upon these
- 1:16:04Speaker 1: new guidelines. Yeah, down the road, I know, anyway, But
- 1:16:09Speaker 1: where is police ST's already filed suit against the city
- 1:16:12Speaker 1: Cincinnati correct a former.
- 1:16:14Speaker 8: Chief Well, I actually didn't spend any time on the
- 1:16:22Speaker 8: jurity yesterday, okay, in the weaves, So I don't know
- 1:16:26Speaker 8: if it's hit Pacer yet.
- 1:16:27Speaker 1: Okay, Okay, I was only the impression it had, So
- 1:16:30Speaker 1: you've corrected my understanding the situation. But we're a moment
- 1:16:33Speaker 1: in time, regardless of there's today, tomorrow or week from
- 1:16:35Speaker 1: now from the lawsuit landing. Correct.
- 1:16:39Speaker 8: Well, yeah, if it's not in Pacer yet, I'm fairly
- 1:16:42Speaker 8: certain it'll be there this next week.
- 1:16:45Speaker 1: Fair enough. And in answer to the question about these signatures,
- 1:16:48Speaker 1: Christophers smin And just confirmed they're going to have the
- 1:16:50Speaker 1: petition today. It's in the printer picking them up at
- 1:16:53Speaker 1: eight am, so they'll hit the streets presumably today or
- 1:16:56Speaker 1: tomorrow wherever you happen to run in a petition. If
- 1:16:58Speaker 1: you are a resident of the City of Cincinnati, it's
- 1:17:00Speaker 1: just residents. Is it residents but also registered to vote
- 1:17:03Speaker 1: or just a resident?
- 1:17:06Speaker 8: Well, it's residents, but they should also if they're not
- 1:17:10Speaker 8: registered to vote, they should go ahead and register to
- 1:17:12Speaker 8: vote because they're going to have to vote on that
- 1:17:14Speaker 8: petition in November.
- 1:17:16Speaker 5: On that what gets on the ballot.
- 1:17:18Speaker 8: So the petition gets it to the ballot, and then
- 1:17:21Speaker 8: you vote on the ballot.
- 1:17:22Speaker 1: So get out there and sign the petition. I suppose
- 1:17:26Speaker 1: businesses could post that petition. I was thinking maybe, uh,
- 1:17:29Speaker 1: Corey Bowman in his King's Arms coffee shop, they could
- 1:17:32Speaker 1: put a petition in there and people could sign it
- 1:17:33Speaker 1: when they go up and get coffee. Signal ninety nine.
- 1:17:35Speaker 1: We will continue. We've got a lot more to talk
- 1:17:37Speaker 1: about coming up. It's seven to fifteen right now at
- 1:17:40Speaker 1: fifty five kr CD talk station. It's time rs A
- 1:17:43Speaker 1: talk station. It is seven to twenty here if you
- 1:17:53Speaker 1: five KRSITE talk station, it's Friday. We're talking to signal
- 1:17:56Speaker 1: ninety nine. And again a reminder Facebook, find signal ninety
- 1:17:58Speaker 1: nine and follow what she has to say about all
- 1:18:00Speaker 1: these antics going on in downtown. Let us pivot over
- 1:18:03Speaker 1: to we'll eventually get to the collaborative agreement. You wrote
- 1:18:06Speaker 1: very very well and broke down the whole reality of
- 1:18:09Speaker 1: what the collaborative agreement was and what it is now.
- 1:18:11Speaker 1: A lot of confusion about management and who the police
- 1:18:14Speaker 1: are supposed to listen to. We'll save that for a moment.
- 1:18:16Speaker 1: I want to pivot over to this interesting analysis you
- 1:18:19Speaker 1: did about the double edged sword that is the new
- 1:18:23Speaker 1: digitizing of the or the encryption of emergency communications that's
- 1:18:27Speaker 1: being rolled out. You start your article by pointing out
- 1:18:30Speaker 1: the radios are about to go quiet, Hamilton County moving
- 1:18:33Speaker 1: toward encrypted emergency communications, which means, I understand it from
- 1:18:37Speaker 1: your writing A Signal ninety nine that people out there
- 1:18:40Speaker 1: in the world that have scanners aren't going to be
- 1:18:42Speaker 1: able to hear the communications like fire calls, police calls,
- 1:18:45Speaker 1: reports for you know, runs and that type of thing,
- 1:18:47Speaker 1: but it's all going to be digitized, so only the
- 1:18:50Speaker 1: officers or the fire department will be able to hear
- 1:18:52Speaker 1: what the dispatch is saying. Do I understand that correctly? Yes.
- 1:18:57Speaker 8: Now the city is is considering doing an hour delay,
- 1:19:04Speaker 8: so you get a scanner, oh access an hour after
- 1:19:11Speaker 8: the call.
- 1:19:11Speaker 1: Oh like the dump button, Like if you said an
- 1:19:14Speaker 1: S word that or I misinterpreted it and I hit it,
- 1:19:16Speaker 1: it deletes the whole minute of conversation that preceded it.
- 1:19:20Speaker 1: This would delay the communications for a full hour and
- 1:19:23Speaker 1: then have it come out so the general public would
- 1:19:25Speaker 1: know absolutely what they actually said, as opposed to some
- 1:19:28Speaker 1: sort of boiled down recitation of the facts. A day
- 1:19:31Speaker 1: or a week later.
- 1:19:33Speaker 8: Well, this would be the best case scenario. So hopefully
- 1:19:38Speaker 8: the county and the city decide to do to go
- 1:19:42Speaker 8: that route, and that way the media can stay on
- 1:19:46Speaker 8: top of breaking news. I mean, yes, it'll be an
- 1:19:49Speaker 8: hour behind, but it keeps the media, it keeps people
- 1:19:53Speaker 8: from showing up at crime scene, from showing up at
- 1:19:56Speaker 8: house fires. They've got a couple of apps out there,
- 1:20:01Speaker 8: like the citizen app is one of them, where they
- 1:20:03Speaker 8: have guys that just drive around listening to the scanner
- 1:20:08Speaker 8: and they chase police calls and fire calls and then
- 1:20:11Speaker 8: they go on scene and they report and they take videos.
- 1:20:14Speaker 8: And so for instance, last night they reported that some
- 1:20:20Speaker 8: woman got shot in the neck at Chicken Salad Chick
- 1:20:23Speaker 8: here in Westwood, and they had put in there that
- 1:20:29Speaker 8: a tourniquet had been applied, and I'm thinking, how do
- 1:20:32Speaker 8: you apply a tourniquet to somebody who's shot in the neck.
- 1:20:35Speaker 8: That's kind of strange. Well, you know, last forward three
- 1:20:38Speaker 8: hours later they're like, no, it was actually in the
- 1:20:41Speaker 8: leg she got shot, So okay. But see, this is
- 1:20:45Speaker 8: the problem with these apps is you have people facing
- 1:20:48Speaker 8: information and they rely on information that they're hearing, but
- 1:20:53Speaker 8: they're not hearing dissolutions, they're not hearing things that change.
- 1:21:00Speaker 1: The more fundamental part that you point out is that
- 1:21:02Speaker 1: you know officers calling out their positions on the radio,
- 1:21:05Speaker 1: the suspects in a car with a scan of the
- 1:21:06Speaker 1: suspect himself or herself as a case, maybe maybe scan.
- 1:21:10Speaker 1: So this is a safety threat to the officers in
- 1:21:13Speaker 1: the fire department personnel. I get that, which is why
- 1:21:15Speaker 1: you're happy about digital communication. So they can't do that.
- 1:21:18Speaker 1: But then again, the double edged sword, that's a good thing.
- 1:21:21Speaker 1: It's bad for the bad guys, but it's bad for
- 1:21:24Speaker 1: public information. Our city government is a little bit cagy
- 1:21:28Speaker 1: when it comes to giving us truthful information. They find
- 1:21:31Speaker 1: themselves backed into a corner a lot because of that.
- 1:21:33Speaker 1: So at least if we have multimute, yeah, transcript or
- 1:21:37Speaker 1: again the delay would give us access to what actually
- 1:21:40Speaker 1: was said and done a little bit later to protect
- 1:21:43Speaker 1: the interest of the officers on the front line. I
- 1:21:45Speaker 1: think that's an excellent balance.
- 1:21:48Speaker 8: Absolutely. And you remember that big street takeover CPDA, Oh yeah,
- 1:21:52Speaker 8: absolutely crush Well, most of the people that they arrested
- 1:21:57Speaker 8: and cars that they impacted, bad scanner, Oh wow, they
- 1:22:03Speaker 8: had I mean they had scanner.
- 1:22:05Speaker 1: Yeah, my grandfather used to have one, and it was
- 1:22:08Speaker 1: the old school scanner. You had to buy a specific
- 1:22:10Speaker 1: circuit for each line of communication you wanted to listen to.
- 1:22:13Speaker 1: This is way old school. And then before they came
- 1:22:15Speaker 1: out with automatic you know, basically pick it all up.
- 1:22:18Speaker 1: I'm under the impression you can correct me if I'm wrong.
- 1:22:20Speaker 1: If you even know signal ninety nine didn't it used to? Did?
- 1:22:22Speaker 1: There used to be a log inst someone driving around
- 1:22:23Speaker 1: with a police scanner in their car.
- 1:22:26Speaker 8: Uh yeah, well depending on what state you were in yet. Yeah, yeah,
- 1:22:30Speaker 8: so yeah, a lot of states frowned upon that heavily
- 1:22:33Speaker 8: for a.
- 1:22:34Speaker 6: Very good reason.
- 1:22:35Speaker 1: What we're talking about.
- 1:22:36Speaker 8: Yeah, and like I said, Cincinnati Hamleta County, Ohio, basically
- 1:22:42Speaker 8: they're decades behind other departments on the other side of
- 1:22:45Speaker 8: the rocky that you know went encrypted thirty forty years ago.
- 1:22:49Speaker 1: Well, that Cincinnati signal ninety ninety. You know, what happens
- 1:22:52Speaker 1: here is going to it take ten years for whatever
- 1:22:54Speaker 1: happens in the outside world to finally land in Cincinnati.
- 1:22:56Speaker 1: It's the best place to be if the world ends.
- 1:22:58Speaker 1: So I've heard we got more to talk about, including
- 1:23:01Speaker 1: the collaborative agreement, and I really am wildly curious your
- 1:23:06Speaker 1: take on this. This this felony charge, felony retaliation. A
- 1:23:11Speaker 1: guy threatened the life of a judge and his entire family,
- 1:23:15Speaker 1: witnessed by multiple people, and yet the grand jury didn't
- 1:23:18Speaker 1: indict him for this felony. I thought, you can indict
- 1:23:20Speaker 1: a ham sandwich. We'll talk about that the talk station
- 1:23:24Speaker 1: sevent twenty nine fifty one kc DE talk station Happy Friday.
- 1:23:28Speaker 1: Brian Thomas was signal ninety nine online at Facebook Signal
- 1:23:30Speaker 1: ninety nine, pivoting over the old adage is you can
- 1:23:33Speaker 1: indict a ham sandwich because even though a ham sandwich
- 1:23:35Speaker 1: can't commit a crime, the prosecutors in charge of all
- 1:23:38Speaker 1: evidence presented to the grand jury, they can say anything
- 1:23:40Speaker 1: they want. There's no defense counsel. There, there's no obligation
- 1:23:42Speaker 1: to provide exculplatory evidence. Boom, ham sandwich indictment, then you
- 1:23:46Speaker 1: got to try him. That doesn't an indictment is not
- 1:23:48Speaker 1: a conviction, Often stated by a lot of people who
- 1:23:50Speaker 1: have been indicted, I haven't been convicted proof beyond a
- 1:23:53Speaker 1: reasonable doubt. You can't get proof beyond a reasonable doubt
- 1:23:55Speaker 1: for a ham sandwich, but you can get an indictment
- 1:23:57Speaker 1: pivoting over Xavier Jackson. We have apparently signal ninety nine
- 1:24:02Speaker 1: based upon what you said, and I don't doubt a
- 1:24:03Speaker 1: word that you have stated here. Explicit threats against common
- 1:24:08Speaker 1: Please Judge, Hamilton County common Please Judge and his entire family,
- 1:24:11Speaker 1: threatening him with death in courtroom within earshot of witnesses,
- 1:24:16Speaker 1: including his own attorney and a deputy. So multiple witnesses
- 1:24:21Speaker 1: said he'd tried. He threatened to kill a judge. That
- 1:24:24Speaker 1: would be easy in a grand jury. You just present
- 1:24:28Speaker 1: the witnesses statements he threatened to kill the judge in
- 1:24:30Speaker 1: his family, and then you get an indictment for felony retaliation.
- 1:24:33Speaker 1: But that didn't happen here in Hamilton County. What happened
- 1:24:36Speaker 1: to Xavier Jackson in the grand jury signal ninety nine?
- 1:24:41Speaker 8: Well, first, let me say, Xavier Jackson is a piece
- 1:24:44Speaker 8: of pineapple.
- 1:24:46Speaker 1: Gotcha? Going back to our new safe word excreme, that's
- 1:24:52Speaker 1: all on.
- 1:24:52Speaker 8: The prosecutor's office. The prosecutor goes in, They basically they
- 1:24:59Speaker 8: basically telegram jury, hey, this this is what we're looking for.
- 1:25:04Speaker 8: This is what supports what we're looking for. It couldn't
- 1:25:08Speaker 8: be any more clearcut.
- 1:25:10Speaker 1: Than it was right.
- 1:25:11Speaker 5: They had.
- 1:25:12Speaker 8: They had witnesses from a member of the bar, his
- 1:25:16Speaker 8: own defense attorney. They had witnesses from the sitting judge,
- 1:25:20Speaker 8: they had witnesses from a deputy, witnesses within the courthouse.
- 1:25:25Speaker 8: So all the prosecutor's office had to do was say,
- 1:25:29Speaker 8: you can't threaten a sitting judge and threatened to murder
- 1:25:32Speaker 8: him and his entire family. Because he's sending you back
- 1:25:37Speaker 8: to prison for something you did. You don't get to
- 1:25:41Speaker 8: get away with that. We're going to make an example
- 1:25:43Speaker 8: out of him. He needs to This needs to be
- 1:25:46Speaker 8: built out as a felony. And that didn't happen. So
- 1:25:52Speaker 8: who do I point the finger at. I'm going to
- 1:25:54Speaker 8: tell you right now, I'm pointing at right straight smack
- 1:25:57Speaker 8: at the Prosecutor's office. Because Edge Christopher McDowell is a conservative,
- 1:26:03Speaker 8: and he's a very vocal law and order judge. He
- 1:26:08Speaker 8: doesn't care about political affiliation. He cares about law and order.
- 1:26:12Speaker 8: That's why the governor appointed him. So he's all business.
- 1:26:19Speaker 8: He doesn't put up with any bologney in his court.
- 1:26:24Speaker 8: And when this happened, they dropped the ball. They told him, yeah,
- 1:26:27Speaker 8: your honor we're charging him with a felony and then
- 1:26:31Speaker 8: they didn't. Oh, well, the grand jury, okay, whatever, right.
- 1:26:34Speaker 1: The grand jury. That thing is the grand juryon Dyna
- 1:26:36Speaker 1: him on a single misdemeanor aggravated menacing charge, obviously carrying
- 1:26:39Speaker 1: a lot less penalty than a felony retaliation charge. So
- 1:26:45Speaker 1: I think that obviously it seems to be stark evidence
- 1:26:47Speaker 1: that they dropped the ball, because again, all of the
- 1:26:49Speaker 1: elements of the crime would be presented to the jury,
- 1:26:51Speaker 1: and then you have all the elements of the crime
- 1:26:53Speaker 1: met with the witness testimony, playing simple dun dry over with.
- 1:26:57Speaker 1: How could they come up with anything else but a
- 1:26:59Speaker 1: felony retaliation unless maybe the prosecutor didn't put it that
- 1:27:02Speaker 1: simply to them.
- 1:27:05Speaker 8: Well, and not only that, the worst part is is
- 1:27:08Speaker 8: this pineapple Xavier Jackson has decided he's going to represent
- 1:27:15Speaker 8: himself so that he himself can ask questions of the
- 1:27:21Speaker 8: judge while he's in the witness box.
- 1:27:23Speaker 7: Hmm.
- 1:27:25Speaker 1: Well, you know what they say about people who choose
- 1:27:27Speaker 1: to represent themselves.
- 1:27:29Speaker 7: M hm.
- 1:27:30Speaker 8: I do, But I don't want you to hit the
- 1:27:32Speaker 8: gumpfront and.
- 1:27:34Speaker 1: They have a piece of pineapple as a client. That's
- 1:27:39Speaker 1: the way that goes.
- 1:27:40Speaker 8: You know, it's just you know, this is this is
- 1:27:44Speaker 8: the prosecutor's office that we have now. It's it's a
- 1:27:47Speaker 8: shame because you know what, somebody commented on my post
- 1:27:51Speaker 8: when I posted that, and he said, Joe Dieters would
- 1:27:54Speaker 8: have buried this guy under the under under the jail. Yes,
- 1:27:58Speaker 8: that's absolutely true. And you know what, Mossa Powers would
- 1:28:01Speaker 8: have done that too, and.
- 1:28:04Speaker 1: Or signal ninety nine. Let me observe either of those
- 1:28:06Speaker 1: two would have fired an assistant prosecutor who couldn't get
- 1:28:09Speaker 1: an indictment for a felony retaliation conviction. With all of
- 1:28:12Speaker 1: this evidence right there, you go, absolutely we got more.
- 1:28:20Speaker 1: We got a few more topics to talk about with
- 1:28:22Speaker 1: a Signal ninety nine and including we'll get a commentary
- 1:28:24Speaker 1: to about collaborative agreement. What's going on with that KERCD
- 1:28:26Speaker 1: talxation brought that was was Signal ninety nine talking about well,
- 1:28:29Speaker 1: matters involving downtown Cincinnati. Not pretty, not a pretty picture
- 1:28:33Speaker 1: given our current structure and administration and the confusion I
- 1:28:36Speaker 1: think that police officers are operating under right now. Since
- 1:28:39Speaker 1: any collaborative agreement, this has brought up all the time,
- 1:28:42Speaker 1: and it was twenty plus years ago, as you wrote
- 1:28:44Speaker 1: the other day on your post on Signal ninety nine Facebook,
- 1:28:48Speaker 1: but it's apparently being used as a weapon against law
- 1:28:50Speaker 1: enforcement for the purpose of activism. Originally Signal ninety nine,
- 1:28:57Speaker 1: what was the collaborative agreement designed to address? I know
- 1:28:59Speaker 1: we had claims of problems in racism and accusations against
- 1:29:03Speaker 1: the city police going back a couple of decades, riots
- 1:29:05Speaker 1: in the streets, people demanding some action, and the action
- 1:29:08Speaker 1: that was brought about and the result was this collaborative Agreement,
- 1:29:11Speaker 1: cited regularly as the example for the entire law enforcement
- 1:29:14Speaker 1: community across the United States. But twenty years later, what
- 1:29:18Speaker 1: now needs to be done and how is it being used,
- 1:29:21Speaker 1: according to you, for what I will call nefarious purposes?
- 1:29:26Speaker 8: Well, first of all, Iris is not thrilled that I
- 1:29:29Speaker 8: called her a coconut, So let's just put that on
- 1:29:31Speaker 8: the table. Talk about the elephant in the room. Yes,
- 1:29:34Speaker 8: I called her a coconut, and I'm not sorry. So
- 1:29:37Speaker 8: moving on, the collaborative Agreement is used, it's been weaponized.
- 1:29:44Speaker 8: It's so vague and ambiguous. Have you ever read it, Brian, No,
- 1:29:47Speaker 8: I have not, I'll.
- 1:29:48Speaker 1: Be honest with you, but if you want to read,
- 1:29:49Speaker 1: it's right there in served the ninety nine posts, go
- 1:29:51Speaker 1: ahead and pour through it.
- 1:29:53Speaker 8: Yeah, it's a little ambiguous, it's a lot ambiguous. You know,
- 1:29:58Speaker 8: it's supposed to be for over site. It's not supposed
- 1:30:01Speaker 8: to be the absolute tell all of everything. We're going
- 1:30:06Speaker 8: to dictate how you're going to be a police department
- 1:30:09Speaker 8: from here to eternity. And you got to remember, I mean,
- 1:30:12Speaker 8: we have, my gosh, what is this twenty four years later.
- 1:30:18Speaker 8: We've got BWC's, we've got cruiser.
- 1:30:21Speaker 1: Cam bodywarn she means body worn cameras. We've got to
- 1:30:24Speaker 1: do more explaining Signal ninety nine because treat me like
- 1:30:26Speaker 1: an eight year old that I don't know anything about
- 1:30:28Speaker 1: what you're talking about. So body Warren cameras we got.
- 1:30:31Speaker 1: You talked about tasers versus the use of maybe PR
- 1:30:34Speaker 1: twenty fours or firearms. We got license plate readers. You
- 1:30:39Speaker 1: got all this new technology. Every single moment in time
- 1:30:43Speaker 1: is basically recorded. You know where the officers are, we
- 1:30:45Speaker 1: know what they did, we know how they interacted with
- 1:30:46Speaker 1: the public. And this I think has served to benefit
- 1:30:49Speaker 1: the officers over time, because quite often they're accused of
- 1:30:52Speaker 1: engaging in well, untoured conduct or even issues of racism.
- 1:30:56Speaker 1: When they didn't do it, they at least have body
- 1:30:57Speaker 1: camera footage to show exactly what was said or unduring
- 1:31:00Speaker 1: the interaction. So that's a big plus for everybody. What
- 1:31:03Speaker 1: needs to be done? And does the collaborative agreement control
- 1:31:06Speaker 1: the day to day functioning of what a police officer
- 1:31:10Speaker 1: does when he or she encounters someone out there engaging
- 1:31:13Speaker 1: in criminal activity. That seems to be the problem right there.
- 1:31:17Speaker 8: Well, that's correct, and I'm just going to use this
- 1:31:20Speaker 8: one example. Okay, Iris had a cow and wrote it
- 1:31:27Speaker 8: around the city. When SEF wanted to bring in the
- 1:31:31Speaker 8: full package that the governor offered last year, all right.
- 1:31:34Speaker 1: And recall that was after the riot. The governor said,
- 1:31:36Speaker 1: all the state resources that you want, you can have
- 1:31:38Speaker 1: thirty every day of the calendar months, every day of
- 1:31:41Speaker 1: the week. We got state patrol, we've got other resources
- 1:31:44Speaker 1: here they are if you want them. What does the
- 1:31:46Speaker 1: city do? They chose to take what at one weekend
- 1:31:49Speaker 1: a month or something of that?
- 1:31:51Speaker 8: It was two days a month, two days And the
- 1:31:54Speaker 8: reasoning was okay, well no, because all they could do
- 1:31:59Speaker 8: is have the enforcement because they won't follow the collaborative agreement,
- 1:32:03Speaker 8: they're not trained in it.
- 1:32:05Speaker 1: Okay, back up.
- 1:32:07Speaker 8: Right, they don't have to be trained in it. They
- 1:32:10Speaker 8: enforced the law and nobody is exempt from the law.
- 1:32:16Speaker 8: And that was the problem that IRIS really had. No,
- 1:32:19Speaker 8: we're not going to have people down here getting getting
- 1:32:23Speaker 8: you know, cited for for having alcohol in public or
- 1:32:26Speaker 8: smoking weed public. No, no, no, dous having absolutely none
- 1:32:30Speaker 8: of it.
- 1:32:31Speaker 1: So but specifically to that point, that to that exact
- 1:32:36Speaker 1: point that is, Okay, let's say open container drinking outside
- 1:32:40Speaker 1: of a door is a problem. It is a citable offense.
- 1:32:43Speaker 1: There's no questions along in the book about that. Does
- 1:32:45Speaker 1: the Collaborative Agreement specifically address the encounters with people drinking
- 1:32:49Speaker 1: alcohol outside? I cannot believe it contains that level of specificity.
- 1:32:55Speaker 1: That's not right, Okay, it does not. So what does
- 1:32:57Speaker 1: it say about the day to day app location of
- 1:33:00Speaker 1: the laws as it applies to the citizenry at large?
- 1:33:05Speaker 8: Pretty much in a nutshell, it says that police officers
- 1:33:09Speaker 8: have to be professional to the public yep, not exhibit racism,
- 1:33:14Speaker 8: and not use excessive force when not necessary. You know,
- 1:33:18Speaker 8: all the standard things you would consider to have to.
- 1:33:22Speaker 1: Be a cop, be a good officer, and apply the
- 1:33:24Speaker 1: law equally to everyone, period. Now does it give the power,
- 1:33:28Speaker 1: Does it give the power to anyone other than the
- 1:33:30Speaker 1: police chief to ensure that that is going on out
- 1:33:33Speaker 1: on the front lines. Who do the police respond to
- 1:33:36Speaker 1: and who do they take their cues from under the
- 1:33:38Speaker 1: collaborative agreement? Does it speak to that?
- 1:33:42Speaker 8: Well, there is no director of this collaborative Agreement, So
- 1:33:45Speaker 8: it's just been the coconut. The coconut's been running with
- 1:33:48Speaker 8: it for a while.
- 1:33:49Speaker 1: And for those not knowing, she's referring to Iris Roli,
- 1:33:51Speaker 1: who's a community activist, was integrally involved in the creation
- 1:33:54Speaker 1: of the collaborative Agreement. She's an outspoken anti police. Am
- 1:33:57Speaker 1: I right on that. She's a defund the police type person.
- 1:34:00Speaker 1: And you do have documented evidence on videotape that she
- 1:34:03Speaker 1: has interfered with police officers doing their job.
- 1:34:08Speaker 8: Many times and insulted them and harassed them and threatened them. Yeah,
- 1:34:14Speaker 8: oh yeah, it's all out there, all right.
- 1:34:16Speaker 1: So we'll pause from it because you're gonna answer this
- 1:34:18Speaker 1: question recognizing what you said. It's silent about the day
- 1:34:22Speaker 1: to day enforcement of the laws. You expect equal treatment
- 1:34:24Speaker 1: of the laws. It basically governs the conduct of police officers,
- 1:34:27Speaker 1: so they are being decent, good people. How do they
- 1:34:31Speaker 1: shoehorn this nebulousness in the Collaborative Agreement into the day
- 1:34:36Speaker 1: to day functioning of a police officer doing his job.
- 1:34:40Speaker 1: Let's signal nine nine answer that question. We come back
- 1:34:42Speaker 1: seven forty five right now. If you about KRC Detalk
- 1:34:44Speaker 1: Station QC connected seventy nine. If you about krcity talkstation
- 1:34:49Speaker 1: one more with signal ninety nine from Facebook, Facebook signal
- 1:34:52Speaker 1: ninety nine, find it followed enlightening stuff. She reports on
- 1:34:55Speaker 1: Claire Corkhan, Clement County Trusty Clik. Corkan joined the program
- 1:34:58Speaker 1: at top of their name to talk about America's fiftieth Birthday,
- 1:35:00Speaker 1: what Claremont County's doing, and Robert Borton's book Next Hour
- 1:35:04Speaker 1: eight eight point thirty woke and weaponized about the sad
- 1:35:06Speaker 1: state of the Marxism in our education system. The meantime,
- 1:35:09Speaker 1: pivoting over to signal ninety nine, we're talking about the
- 1:35:11Speaker 1: Collaborative Agreement, all right, collaborateve agreement just basically governs just
- 1:35:15Speaker 1: day to day conduct. Be a good officer. Let's boil
- 1:35:18Speaker 1: it down. Don't treat people differently, Everyone equally apply it
- 1:35:21Speaker 1: under the law. Some is dotted and teas crossed on that,
- 1:35:24Speaker 1: but nothing with regard to the specifics of the day
- 1:35:27Speaker 1: to day workings of the police department, Like what do
- 1:35:30Speaker 1: you do when you encounter a kid with an open container?
- 1:35:32Speaker 1: Downsound out to outside of Dora. Now, I would presume
- 1:35:36Speaker 1: that you would take your instructions from the chief on that.
- 1:35:38Speaker 1: There's got to be policies and standards that would apply
- 1:35:40Speaker 1: equally to everyone. But that doesn't sound like the case.
- 1:35:44Speaker 1: But how does one shoehorn the collaborative agreement into giving
- 1:35:49Speaker 1: somebody other than let's say, the chief of police the
- 1:35:51Speaker 1: authority to make decisions with regard who gets cited and
- 1:35:55Speaker 1: who doesn't, or under what circumstances. I get the impression
- 1:35:57Speaker 1: the police are very confused right now.
- 1:36:01Speaker 8: Well, I can tell you this. You'll never find a
- 1:36:04Speaker 8: policy that says you can't enforce this, this, this, this, this, this,
- 1:36:09Speaker 8: this is right. I did a big post last year
- 1:36:15Speaker 8: over there were over twenty five things that CPD is
- 1:36:19Speaker 8: supposed to just ignore. Okay, they're not supposed to enforce
- 1:36:22Speaker 8: it any of these things. There's no policy that says
- 1:36:26Speaker 8: they cannot. But it's all sprinkle down, word of mouth,
- 1:36:30Speaker 8: wink at a nod, Right, you know, answer your call,
- 1:36:35Speaker 8: pay attention to the really important stuff, and ignore, you know,
- 1:36:39Speaker 8: ignore all this other static that's not policing. That's why
- 1:36:46Speaker 8: we have the issues that we have. I mean, of course,
- 1:36:48Speaker 8: the biggest reason why crime is out of control are
- 1:36:51Speaker 8: because we have coconut judges that you know, won't hold
- 1:36:58Speaker 8: criminals accountable, and juvenile court judge administrative judge that absolutely
- 1:37:04Speaker 8: won't hold juvenile's accountable. So you know, they know that,
- 1:37:09Speaker 8: they all know that.
- 1:37:09Speaker 1: But Judge Silberstein, for example, isn't Silverstein one of the
- 1:37:13Speaker 1: the real light on crime judges.
- 1:37:16Speaker 8: She is one of the worst coconuts.
- 1:37:18Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, that's that's kind of what I thought. And
- 1:37:21Speaker 1: when you say cocaine loop, yeah, okay, you just mean
- 1:37:25Speaker 1: looney Tunes when you say coconut. You don't intend anything
- 1:37:27Speaker 1: racist by that, do you?
- 1:37:30Speaker 6: No?
- 1:37:30Speaker 1: Okay, listen, I'm just I hear somebody out there drawing
- 1:37:34Speaker 1: a conclusion. You know how things are these days, is
- 1:37:36Speaker 1: trying to cover your button mind because Thomas, you didn't say,
- 1:37:38Speaker 1: you didn't you didn't say anything about her racist statement
- 1:37:41Speaker 1: that iris rolis a coconut. Yeah, sit there. Nine nine
- 1:37:43Speaker 1: is using that term across the board for anybody who's
- 1:37:45Speaker 1: looney tunes. I guess so. But real quick here, the
- 1:37:51Speaker 1: officers are concerned because of these unwritten policies what they're
- 1:37:54Speaker 1: supposed to do versus what's actually written down, which would
- 1:37:56Speaker 1: be equal treatment and equal enforcement of the law. You
- 1:37:58Speaker 1: see a crime, the issue is siation for a crime.
- 1:38:00Speaker 1: To anybody who's committing to crime. What is the risk
- 1:38:04Speaker 1: of an officer who defies this unwritten group of woke
- 1:38:08Speaker 1: policies Signal ninety nine?
- 1:38:10Speaker 8: What happened to do you think the risk is Brian, Well.
- 1:38:14Speaker 1: Under the circumstances based on what happened to police Chief
- 1:38:16Speaker 1: Dji and Chief Washington in the fire department, they get fired.
- 1:38:21Speaker 5: Well, either that or they go on.
- 1:38:23Speaker 8: Some crap shift and some crap assignment.
- 1:38:28Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 1:38:29Speaker 8: No, I mean they're gonna do what they're told to do.
- 1:38:32Speaker 4: And I guess don't.
- 1:38:34Speaker 1: Promotions probably might be at risk as well.
- 1:38:37Speaker 8: Promotions evaluations, Yes, so is it worth the risk?
- 1:38:44Speaker 2: No?
- 1:38:45Speaker 8: And the reason why IRIS doesn't want them to mess
- 1:38:51Speaker 8: with low level crime is because a lot of these
- 1:38:54Speaker 8: idiots walking around drinking in public, smoking weed in public.
- 1:38:58Speaker 8: You know, Petty saff panhand jaywalking all of these things. Okay,
- 1:39:05Speaker 8: they have warrants. A lot of people have warrants. So
- 1:39:09Speaker 8: if CPD approaches somebody and says, hey, you can't drink that,
- 1:39:12Speaker 8: come over here, give me your ID. What if they
- 1:39:16Speaker 8: have a warrant, Oh my god, we can't have that.
- 1:39:20Speaker 8: We can't have them picked up on a warrant. What
- 1:39:22Speaker 8: so we better not even just approached these This is.
- 1:39:24Speaker 1: A person who has a warrant out. They have demonstrated
- 1:39:27Speaker 1: that they've either violated the law, or at least we
- 1:39:29Speaker 1: have a strong suspicion they have that they violated at
- 1:39:32Speaker 1: alaw enough to get a warrant out. That seems to
- 1:39:34Speaker 1: be the type of person you absolutely want to find.
- 1:39:36Speaker 1: So good they're out breaking the law again in the
- 1:39:38Speaker 1: form of a misdemeanor open container. But lo and behold
- 1:39:41Speaker 1: that by doing that you found the person you've been
- 1:39:43Speaker 1: looking for. That sounds to me like you shoul get
- 1:39:45Speaker 1: a feather in their cap rather than be condemned for it.
- 1:39:49Speaker 8: Exactly Well, they took an oath Ryan not to only
- 1:39:54Speaker 8: enforce these laws. They took an oath to and to
- 1:39:59Speaker 8: enforce all of the law in the state of Ohio.
- 1:40:01Speaker 7: So so.
- 1:40:03Speaker 6: It rubs.
- 1:40:04Speaker 8: A lot of these officers the wrong way, and you know,
- 1:40:09Speaker 8: every single day, that's every single day. Well, I'm glad
- 1:40:12Speaker 8: to bring all their eyes so far that they can
- 1:40:14Speaker 8: see their own brain. That's how you know. And but
- 1:40:18Speaker 8: what are they supposed to do?
- 1:40:20Speaker 1: Well? That seems to be where we find ourselves right now,
- 1:40:23Speaker 1: Signal ninety nine. I love what you're doing each and
- 1:40:25Speaker 1: every day for the folks in the city of Cincinnati
- 1:40:26Speaker 1: and revealing these these this craziness. I appreciate your judicial endorsements.
- 1:40:30Speaker 1: Chris McDowell, Roger Bouchard, Katie cash, Leah dink A Locker,
- 1:40:34Speaker 1: Robert Gerring, Dennis Charles Mahoney, Betsy Sunderman over the juvenile
- 1:40:37Speaker 1: Susan Lucan in the probate Court, Ralph Winkler. Those are
- 1:40:40Speaker 1: outstanding choices. I also approve of your endorsements. And you
- 1:40:44Speaker 1: know the real reason I'm upset you didn't show up today.
- 1:40:47Speaker 1: I'm jealous because Warnt Warren County Prosecutor David Forornshaw was
- 1:40:51Speaker 1: proudly displaying his brand new Signal ninety nine shirt. I
- 1:40:54Speaker 1: didn't get one.
- 1:40:56Speaker 5: You know, I'm picking up some shirts today, so.
- 1:41:02Speaker 8: I'm gonna take one to the prosecutor in Clairemont County
- 1:41:07Speaker 8: and Triple dogcare him to do the same thing. David
- 1:41:10Speaker 8: Hornshell did do it?
- 1:41:12Speaker 11: Do it?
- 1:41:13Speaker 1: Sigond nighty night, Thank you for your time today. Have
- 1:41:15Speaker 1: a great weekend.
- 1:41:16Speaker 8: Do you think Connie? Do you think Connie would do
- 1:41:18Speaker 8: it for him? In the County presscuter page.
- 1:41:21Speaker 1: Oh that's rich. That's what'll end on that comedic note.
- 1:41:24Speaker 1: A rhetorical question. Yeah, I think we all know the
- 1:41:27Speaker 1: answer to that one. Big no. It's eight oh six
- 1:41:31Speaker 1: at fifty five KRCD Talk Station. Brian Thomas wishing everyone
- 1:41:34Speaker 1: a very happy Friday. Who've got some great plans? You're

- 1:42:28Speaker 2: Well, this is the brightest star in Claremont County right now.
- 1:42:31Speaker 2: I cannot tell you how many people. We have, over
- 1:42:33Speaker 2: thirty people working on this, and we have every single
- 1:42:37Speaker 2: building is already dedicated with murals and American flags, and
- 1:42:43Speaker 2: we'll be lit up at night. We have eleven murals
- 1:42:47Speaker 2: that have been painted all across the county and something
- 1:42:50Speaker 2: probably dear to you, Loveland's is getting ready to be
- 1:42:54Speaker 2: performed right now, and that's going to be near Nescit Park.
- 1:42:58Speaker 2: And we are granting all of these as they are
- 1:43:02Speaker 2: being drawn, as they're being painted or spraping, and they
- 1:43:06Speaker 2: are gorgeous that we're telling his Oh, we're telling the
- 1:43:10Speaker 2: history of America in Claremont County, Ohio, and I'm learning
- 1:43:14Speaker 2: so much as we go along. What's with I cannot hunt.
- 1:43:17Speaker 1: I'm just kidd Claremont County in my mind, he boil
- 1:43:20Speaker 1: it down. You always seem to be like Heartland America, patriots,
- 1:43:24Speaker 1: proud independent minded. You know, maybe I dare even say
- 1:43:28Speaker 1: out loud, perhaps a little libertarian, perhaps not, but solid
- 1:43:32Speaker 1: conservative mindset there. What is in the water in Claremont County.
- 1:43:36Speaker 1: Can the folks in Hamilton County that read and the
- 1:43:38Speaker 1: people in the city since they get some of it?
- 1:43:41Speaker 4: Oh?
- 1:43:41Speaker 2: Absolutely, but we extra filter ours and we're not of
- 1:43:44Speaker 2: our secret away all right. Well, I can tell you
- 1:43:48Speaker 2: that they're doing even out to Williamsburg and Bethel, and
- 1:43:51Speaker 2: we're going everywhere. There's family picnics, and even Batavia is
- 1:43:55Speaker 2: doing an entire tribute with the Quantas of East Fork
- 1:43:59Speaker 2: and using the Quantities flags and we're doing two hundred
- 1:44:02Speaker 2: and fifty American flags to kick off their whole picnic
- 1:44:05Speaker 2: an event with fireworks. We are starting the first of June. Actually,
- 1:44:10Speaker 2: with all of our events, we're doing senior services or
- 1:44:14Speaker 2: doing a whole program and all their artwork where you
- 1:44:17Speaker 2: see Claremont has given us their whole art gallery for
- 1:44:20Speaker 2: all of our children, eighty some participants in children young
- 1:44:25Speaker 2: children in our school, and Willowville School is doing an
- 1:44:29Speaker 2: entire American tribute to all of the veterans. I cannot
- 1:44:32Speaker 2: believe how people people just have come together, Brian. We're
- 1:44:35Speaker 2: really good out here.
- 1:44:37Speaker 1: Yeah, you are.
- 1:44:37Speaker 2: We don't have time. We don't have time to fight.
- 1:44:40Speaker 2: There's minimal fights, but we don't have time. And we've
- 1:44:42Speaker 2: got this any people working well.
- 1:44:44Speaker 1: And what more do we need at this time in
- 1:44:45Speaker 1: our nation's history than a rally around the flag. We're
- 1:44:48Speaker 1: so divided in this country and to know that that
- 1:44:50Speaker 1: everything Claremont County stepping up to the plate and joining
- 1:44:53Speaker 1: the celebration, a non partisan celebration, we should all be
- 1:44:56Speaker 1: pretty damn happy. We lasted two hundred and fifty years
- 1:44:58Speaker 1: in this world in this kind of form of government.
- 1:45:02Speaker 2: Oh absolutely, we're gonna and I'll tell you, we're carrying
- 1:45:05Speaker 2: ours all the way through to October sixteenth, where we're
- 1:45:08Speaker 2: going to do the unveiling of our former president Ulyssa's
- 1:45:13Speaker 2: asked grant and it's going it's going to be a
- 1:45:15Speaker 2: sculpture that's going to be in front of the Grant
- 1:45:18Speaker 2: Museum Mountain Bethel. And if you remember Tom Tesia, he's
- 1:45:21Speaker 2: the one that did the Marty Brennemann statue recently and Cincinnati.
- 1:45:26Speaker 2: Oh my gosh. She is so talented and he has
- 1:45:29Speaker 2: been working. It's almost three years we've been working on
- 1:45:31Speaker 2: the sculpture to get ready to go. And everybody, I
- 1:45:35Speaker 2: can tell you, there isn't one school, there isn't one
- 1:45:38Speaker 2: historical society that has not stepped up and said hey,
- 1:45:41Speaker 2: can we help you? And I don't know if you're
- 1:45:43Speaker 2: aware of the Ennist family that has Elis family has
- 1:45:47Speaker 2: a barn out on thirty two as you go towards
- 1:45:49Speaker 2: Mount Orebe. They actually pay Oh they painted the whole
- 1:45:53Speaker 2: side of the barn that has been painted for American
- 1:45:55Speaker 2: two fifty again and they dedicated their barn to us.
- 1:45:58Speaker 1: It was just it was great, all right.
- 1:46:01Speaker 2: But we also went to Hamilton County, Brian. We went
- 1:46:04Speaker 2: to the river roots and participated in that we're just neighbors.
- 1:46:07Speaker 2: Come on over come, drink our water.
- 1:46:10Speaker 1: As you say, again, this is a bipartisan celebration. Boy,
- 1:46:15Speaker 1: I wish we could just really sincerely grab a hold
- 1:46:18Speaker 1: of this event and feel good about America for a change.
- 1:46:21Speaker 1: There's so much negativity, and you know, I got a
- 1:46:23Speaker 1: guess coming up in the bottom of the hour about
- 1:46:25Speaker 1: the Marxism that's crept into our education system. I mean,
- 1:46:28Speaker 1: our children are being taught to hate our country, Claire.
- 1:46:32Speaker 1: It is just so heartbreaking. I mean I remember I
- 1:46:35Speaker 1: used to get, you know, tingles down my spine as
- 1:46:37Speaker 1: a kid, feeling patriotic about the flag and all these
- 1:46:40Speaker 1: types of celebrations. I just feel like that has just
- 1:46:43Speaker 1: completely disappeared among our young people.
- 1:46:46Speaker 2: I can tell you that in our school system in
- 1:46:48Speaker 2: Clairemont County, it has not disappeared. Just for an example,
- 1:46:52Speaker 2: is the Willaville event that they're going to be doing
- 1:46:54Speaker 2: and we all go to that. It is one patriotic
- 1:46:57Speaker 2: song after another. It's prayed with American flags, and these
- 1:47:01Speaker 2: children know their history, and that's what we're also promoting.
- 1:47:06Speaker 2: We did through the Historical Society, the library, everybody who's
- 1:47:10Speaker 2: been helping us, We have done passports. So the little
- 1:47:13Speaker 2: books look just like you're going to travel around the
- 1:47:15Speaker 2: world like an adult passport, and these children are taking
- 1:47:19Speaker 2: them and going to each one free to all of
- 1:47:22Speaker 2: our museums in Claremont County and learning about their history.
- 1:47:26Speaker 2: And I learned so much myself. We're actually doing through
- 1:47:29Speaker 2: senior Services. We're doing bus tours where they're going to
- 1:47:32Speaker 2: see all the eleven murals and every township, every village
- 1:47:36Speaker 2: and city and anybody who's painted anything for American two fifty.
- 1:47:39Speaker 2: We're putting it on the mark. It's right there, come
- 1:47:41Speaker 2: see it. Our biggest supporter through all this, hats off
- 1:47:45Speaker 2: to the Claremont County Convention and Busitors Bureau, Sarah and
- 1:47:49Speaker 2: them have worked so hard on this, so we've got
- 1:47:52Speaker 2: a lot to offer. I can also tell you the
- 1:47:54Speaker 2: state of Ohio immediately was like, wait a minute, you
- 1:47:56Speaker 2: guys are doing what we are so light years ahead
- 1:47:59Speaker 2: of everybody, honest. And that's a little Claremont County again.
- 1:48:03Speaker 2: And I thank you, just thank you for letting sharing
- 1:48:05Speaker 2: it today.
- 1:48:06Speaker 1: I'm glad you're able to do it because you've got
- 1:48:08Speaker 1: me inspired, and you got me feeling pretty good about
- 1:48:10Speaker 1: the state of humanity. Knowing that there are people out
- 1:48:12Speaker 1: there in the world that enjoy together in the sake
- 1:48:14Speaker 1: of supporting our country and celebrating it and saluting it.
- 1:48:19Speaker 1: You attribute the education that you say the Claremont County
- 1:48:23Speaker 1: schools have provided to the children in the name of
- 1:48:25Speaker 1: patriotism and the knowledge of our country's history, et cetera.
- 1:48:29Speaker 1: Is that a consequence of the makeup of the school board,
- 1:48:31Speaker 1: because it seems to me the curriculum tends to come
- 1:48:33Speaker 1: from somebody quite often, the woke leftist curriculum that's indoctrinating
- 1:48:38Speaker 1: our children in a lot of public schools is from
- 1:48:41Speaker 1: a school board.
- 1:48:43Speaker 2: Well, and guests, I agree with you. I was on
- 1:48:46Speaker 2: the school board at Goshen and I could tell you
- 1:48:48Speaker 2: it was not that way when I was there, But
- 1:48:50Speaker 2: I could tell you right now. I just went to
- 1:48:51Speaker 2: a whole educational foundation celebration for all these teachers and
- 1:48:56Speaker 2: everyone for what they do development disability. I think we
- 1:49:00Speaker 2: have one of the best programs anywhere around our children's services.
- 1:49:04Speaker 2: Everyone has been active in attending these things, and I
- 1:49:07Speaker 2: can tell you they keep their eye on the pulse.
- 1:49:09Speaker 2: Claremont County is very unique because our parents are always involved.
- 1:49:14Speaker 2: They show up, they know what's going on with their children.
- 1:49:17Speaker 2: And I think as a parent, if you close your
- 1:49:19Speaker 2: eyes to these things, then don't complain when you're shot
- 1:49:22Speaker 2: child's being taught something you don't like. Get involved with
- 1:49:25Speaker 2: your school. Bring back the old Parent Teacher Association and
- 1:49:30Speaker 2: stay stay involved, know what your children are being taught.
- 1:49:34Speaker 2: I just have a whole different vibe and feel that
- 1:49:37Speaker 2: when I walk into these schools, and I was just
- 1:49:40Speaker 2: down in Patterson and the Milford school system the other day. Wait,
- 1:49:44Speaker 2: you see the display they've done of our American Eagle.
- 1:49:46Speaker 2: It just blew me away. I was like, Oh, the
- 1:49:48Speaker 2: talent here is incredible. That's great, and they and they
- 1:49:52Speaker 2: were all singing, singing for America. It's not it's not
- 1:49:56Speaker 2: what other places are, right, I guess putting out there,
- 1:49:59Speaker 2: and I'm very happy that we are a patriotic county.
- 1:50:03Speaker 1: I am too, and I'm glad you're so close to
- 1:50:05Speaker 1: my neighborhood too. Not quite there. I'm still in Hamilton County,
- 1:50:08Speaker 1: but I can reach out and basically touch Claremont County
- 1:50:11Speaker 1: from where I am.
- 1:50:13Speaker 2: Well, wait, wait to even see what they did in
- 1:50:15Speaker 2: Miami Township. And it's right in front of their exercise machines.
- 1:50:19Speaker 2: They decide instead of painting a permanent mural, they did
- 1:50:22Speaker 2: a wrap around it of their whole history of the
- 1:50:25Speaker 2: Milford area in Miami Township. They were the first ones
- 1:50:28Speaker 2: and I think they're the ones that really shut and
- 1:50:30Speaker 2: you know, made the blast and say hey guys, we're
- 1:50:33Speaker 2: in on this. And the next thing, everybody's like, you know, okay,
- 1:50:35Speaker 2: well we're jealous, we're doing one too. But they're fabos.
- 1:50:38Speaker 2: And even down to New Richmond, it's a huge painting
- 1:50:41Speaker 2: of Ulyssa's s grant. We're proud we had a president
- 1:50:44Speaker 2: and we're proud that his best friend one was an
- 1:50:47Speaker 2: American Indian and the other was African American. So everybody
- 1:50:52Speaker 2: come together exactly, just come together, and I agree with you.
- 1:50:56Speaker 1: Thank you for giving me oh Claire Corkoran. We go
- 1:50:59Speaker 1: back to the old fourth floor Domestic Relations Court under
- 1:51:03Speaker 1: Judge Panetto. I've known you that long and I just
- 1:51:06Speaker 1: joy I have been enjoying work. I enjoyed working with
- 1:51:10Speaker 1: you so much. You're such a great You're always sit
- 1:51:13Speaker 1: in such a great mood. You're so active and engaged
- 1:51:15Speaker 1: with politics and other matters. And anyway, I'm glad to
- 1:51:18Speaker 1: have you on the show. I'm glad you're running for
- 1:51:20Speaker 1: re election for county commissioner. Is it a contest? I
- 1:51:22Speaker 1: gotta ask you, Claire, because this is a political season.
- 1:51:25Speaker 1: Are you being primary and are you being challenged? Or
- 1:51:27Speaker 1: is this just we wait for November and vote for
- 1:51:29Speaker 1: you again?
- 1:51:30Speaker 5: Yeah?
- 1:51:31Speaker 2: Yeah, we're primarily on Tuesday. It'll be over and that's
- 1:51:35Speaker 2: all right either way, I'm still here to serve.
- 1:51:38Speaker 1: Well, let me ask you this, just to solidify this conversation.
- 1:51:43Speaker 1: If you were a betting person, regardless of your race
- 1:51:45Speaker 1: and your challenge, will there be a Democrat on the
- 1:51:49Speaker 1: Claremont County Commission in November?
- 1:51:53Speaker 7: No? There?
- 1:51:54Speaker 1: Okay, right there. You see there's a couple of runnings.
- 1:52:00Speaker 1: Really feel there's a couple running Mclaire says, they're not
- 1:52:02Speaker 1: going to be all the clamorcatic good work, but they're okay.
- 1:52:05Speaker 2: But they're good people. They're involved in the community too.
- 1:52:07Speaker 2: You know, we have people all different so that you know,
- 1:52:10Speaker 2: what the heck, come on, let's all work together.
- 1:52:12Speaker 1: No cheap shots from Claire corkran here in the morning show, Claire,
- 1:52:15Speaker 1: where's she the best? Thank you so much? And real
- 1:52:16Speaker 1: quickly is there? Ah? There's so many places that are
- 1:52:20Speaker 1: being patriotic and putting up all these displays. Is it
- 1:52:22Speaker 1: simply a matter of driving around or is there like
- 1:52:24Speaker 1: a website where people can go to know exactly what
- 1:52:26Speaker 1: people have done where these i'll say exhibits happen to
- 1:52:29Speaker 1: be well.

- 1:54:11Speaker 1: having a happy Friday. I hope you can stick around.
- 1:54:13Speaker 1: Next segment, it's gonna be pretty interesting. Fingers crossed. We
- 1:54:16Speaker 1: do get joined by job Robert Bortons with his book
- 1:54:18Speaker 1: Woken Weaponized school Districts. Man, I'm telling you, in doctrinating
- 1:54:22Speaker 1: our children and dumbing them down, there is no question
- 1:54:24Speaker 1: about that. And yeah, I know you're right. My wife
- 1:54:26Speaker 1: suggested that, and I wish i'd have seen her request earlier.
- 1:54:29Speaker 1: She said, ask Claire if Simms Township can be annexed
- 1:54:31Speaker 1: into Claremont County? Right? I know, and I wish i'd
- 1:54:36Speaker 1: seen your question before Claire got off the phone. Anyhow,
- 1:54:40Speaker 1: what else I wanted to Oh yeah, wonderful world night.
- 1:54:43Speaker 1: Wanted to bring this up. You like Scotch, Well, I'll
- 1:54:48Speaker 1: tell you what something to smile about if you're a
- 1:54:50Speaker 1: Scotch fan. President Trump said yesterday, in honor of King
- 1:54:55Speaker 1: Charles's third visit, he will be removing tariffs on project
- 1:54:59Speaker 1: products associated with whiskey from the United Kingdom, specifically Scotland. Yes,
- 1:55:05Speaker 1: they're trying to negotiate a deal between the Kentucky bourbon
- 1:55:08Speaker 1: distillers in the Scotland Scotch whiskey manufacturers. We had to
- 1:55:13Speaker 1: be currently a ten percent tariff and was supposed to
- 1:55:17Speaker 1: jump to twenty five percent in June. And then along
- 1:55:20Speaker 1: time came the King in a very successful meeting with
- 1:55:23Speaker 1: President Trump, very patriotic and very inspiring, confirming that yes,
- 1:55:27Speaker 1: we are indeed long term partners in spite of the
- 1:55:30Speaker 1: political ill wins that tend to flow around all of us.
- 1:55:33Speaker 1: So they remain our friends, and I guess it's a
- 1:55:35Speaker 1: gesture of decency to all Scotch drinkers out there. Donald
- 1:55:38Speaker 1: Trump told the King that, yeah, we will be getting
- 1:55:40Speaker 1: rid of taxes. Now are tariffs rather, now's a question
- 1:55:43Speaker 1: about whether it is the whiskey itself for everything in
- 1:55:46Speaker 1: connection with the manufacturing of whiskey. So details to be
- 1:55:49Speaker 1: ironed out. But while you're paying six bucks a gown
- 1:55:53Speaker 1: for premium soon to be regular, at least maybe we
- 1:55:57Speaker 1: might get a little bit of relief in the form
- 1:55:58Speaker 1: of a lesser expensive bottle of whiskey from the UK,
- 1:56:02Speaker 1: notably Scotch, specifically Hyland McAllen McAllen single malt. I prefer
- 1:56:10Speaker 1: the eighteen sherry cast if you can afford it. You'll
- 1:56:15Speaker 1: know why I speak about that one in such glowing terms.
- 1:56:18Speaker 1: Don't go away, because coming up next, Marxism has literally
- 1:56:21Speaker 1: invaded almost all of our classrooms. You can get out
- 1:56:23Speaker 1: of it, choose a different school district, or maybe run
- 1:56:26Speaker 1: for the board the school board and change the curriculum.
- 1:56:29Speaker 1: But the teachers are fully woke, the vast majority of them,
- 1:56:33Speaker 1: kay all the way through college leftist, teaching your children
- 1:56:37Speaker 1: Marxism and telling you and your children that America sucks.
- 1:56:42Speaker 1: That's where we find ourselves here at the two hundred
- 1:56:45Speaker 1: and fiftieth anniversary of this great land of ours. Robert
- 1:56:48Speaker 1: Borton's on that subject, woke and Weaponized Coming up next,
- 1:56:52Speaker 1: This is fifty five krc AN. iHeartRadio stick and I
- 1:56:56Speaker 1: am so excited about this conversation about the head with
- 1:56:58Speaker 1: Robert Borton's. He the author of Oak and Weaponize, how
- 1:57:01Speaker 1: Karl Marx won the battle for American education and how
- 1:57:04Speaker 1: we can win it back. By way of background as
- 1:57:06Speaker 1: the chief executive offer of something we're going to find
- 1:57:08Speaker 1: out a lot about right now, Classical Conversations Incorporated bs
- 1:57:13Speaker 1: an industrial engineering from Clemson University back in six he
- 1:57:16Speaker 1: worked at UPS and Management. He's got and then he
- 1:57:19Speaker 1: returned to and I will underscore the words the family
- 1:57:23Speaker 1: business Classical Conversations Incorporated, and we're going to talk about
- 1:57:27Speaker 1: that right now, and how that was the inspiration behind
- 1:57:28Speaker 1: his book Woke and Weaponized and Welcome to the program.
- 1:57:31Speaker 1: Robert Borton's is a real pleasure to have you on today.
- 1:57:34Speaker 11: Brian, I'm excited to be here this morning.
- 1:57:36Speaker 1: Right in my wheelhouse. On this man, I am so
- 1:57:39Speaker 1: worried about the future of education in America. And while
- 1:57:41Speaker 1: current education in America, I am convinced and this sounds conspiratorial,
- 1:57:45Speaker 1: but maybe you can chime in on my conclusion that
- 1:57:48Speaker 1: there seems to be a concerted effort to dumb down
- 1:57:52Speaker 1: our children. There's no more logic and reasoning, there's no
- 1:57:57Speaker 1: more you know, socratic method going on in schools. They
- 1:57:59Speaker 1: are fit spoon fed their version of history, very left
- 1:58:03Speaker 1: and woke. It is, and the children don't have an
- 1:58:05Speaker 1: opportunity to question it, and they're just sort of indoctrinated
- 1:58:08Speaker 1: in this mushy sense of agreement with no critical thinking
- 1:58:12Speaker 1: skills for them to maybe raise their hand up and
- 1:58:14Speaker 1: question what the teacher's saying to them. Am I wrong
- 1:58:18Speaker 1: on this? Is this an intentional dumbing down?
- 1:58:21Speaker 11: I wish it wasn't, but it is, and it does
- 1:58:24Speaker 11: sound conspiracy, conspiracy, and it was a conspiracy against the
- 1:58:28Speaker 11: American people. And that's what we're reveal in my book,
- 1:58:30Speaker 11: Woke and Weaponized. John Dewey, who a lot of people
- 1:58:34Speaker 11: celebrate in America, says change must come gradually. To force
- 1:58:37Speaker 11: it unduly would compromise its final success by favoring a
- 1:58:41Speaker 11: violent reaction. So what plans did he have for America
- 1:58:45Speaker 11: that would make a family have a violent reaction against them? Well,
- 1:58:48Speaker 11: the dumbing down of America. And so that's what our
- 1:58:51Speaker 11: book does. It goes back to original source documents. What
- 1:58:54Speaker 11: did these founders of our education system, especially our teachers colleges,
- 1:59:00Speaker 11: what did they believe? What were they trying to do
- 1:59:02Speaker 11: in America? And it's pretty much summed up by this
- 1:59:07Speaker 11: one comment. The president of the Ford Foundation said in
- 1:59:11Speaker 11: the nineteen seventies early eighties, before the Wall fail, that
- 1:59:16Speaker 11: their goal was to successfully merge the United States with
- 1:59:20Speaker 11: the USSR, in other words, turn all of our little
- 1:59:23Speaker 11: kids into good little collectivists.
- 1:59:26Speaker 1: Well, wait a second, I'm sorry, but the Soviet Union
- 1:59:29Speaker 1: collapsed a while back. They aren't around anymore. I'm not
- 1:59:31Speaker 1: quite sure what form of government the dictatorial regime of
- 1:59:33Speaker 1: Russia currently is, but no longer could be referred to
- 1:59:37Speaker 1: itself as some sort of communist collective. So since that failed,
- 1:59:42Speaker 1: and of course every experiment in socialism slash communism has
- 1:59:47Speaker 1: left its citizenry in a state of poverty and misery,
- 1:59:51Speaker 1: why does one want to pursue that objective in the
- 1:59:54Speaker 1: first place, sir? Yeah?
- 1:59:56Speaker 11: So, the first place is because they hate God, basically
- 2:00:00Speaker 11: an anti God religion, and their three main goals is
- 2:00:05Speaker 11: to destroy private property, because God told Adam and Eve
- 2:00:09Speaker 11: to cultivate the world, to destroy marriage, because that's the
- 2:00:12Speaker 11: first institution that God created and destroy religion, And so
- 2:00:18Speaker 11: they do that by undermining the parental responsibility to their kids.
- 2:00:22Speaker 11: They put the government in parental locusts, in other words,
- 2:00:26Speaker 11: in part of the parenting for the kids, to get
- 2:00:29Speaker 11: kids out of the house as early as possible. And
- 2:00:32Speaker 11: so that's why I say it's been wildly successful because
- 2:00:35Speaker 11: in America only thirty four percent of kids can read
- 2:00:38Speaker 11: at grade level. Well, they want obedient workers. How do
- 2:00:40Speaker 11: you get obedient workers? Make it so the kids can't read.
- 2:00:43Speaker 11: So they substituted out whole reading for phonics. And so, yeah,
- 2:00:48Speaker 11: we looked at all this stuff in our book Woken weaponized.
- 2:00:51Speaker 11: I wish it was a conspiracy or just incompetence, but yeah,
- 2:00:56Speaker 11: it was done intentionally to our society to destroy our
- 2:01:00Speaker 11: our roots.
- 2:01:01Speaker 1: Well, I had a conversation or on the program, kind
- 2:01:02Speaker 1: of springboard off of me just letting them know that
- 2:01:04Speaker 1: you were going to be coming on the program in
- 2:01:06Speaker 1: the context of reading, and I just pointed out that,
- 2:01:09Speaker 1: you know, my children were able to read before they
- 2:01:10Speaker 1: got to school. Why because mom and Dad sat them
- 2:01:12Speaker 1: down on the lap and we read for two of
- 2:01:14Speaker 1: them from infancy all the way through. Well, when they
- 2:01:16Speaker 1: were time to go to kindergarten. That's what you do.
- 2:01:19Speaker 1: It's easy, it's fun. It's an enjoyable, pleasurable thing for
- 2:01:21Speaker 1: a child who that hasn't been introduced to video games yet.
- 2:01:23Speaker 1: So if more parents boiled down to the point and
- 2:01:26Speaker 1: getting to the point, if more parents had an active
- 2:01:28Speaker 1: involvement and concern over their child's education, couldn't they counter
- 2:01:32Speaker 1: to the extent they remain in at public school. We're
- 2:01:35Speaker 1: going to get to options in a moment. But if
- 2:01:36Speaker 1: they remain in a woke environment, if parents are aware
- 2:01:39Speaker 1: of what's being taught, aren't they in a position to
- 2:01:41Speaker 1: counter that without necessarily having to take them out of school?
- 2:01:44Speaker 1: I'd involved parent can well keep their kid on the
- 2:01:47Speaker 1: straight and narrow.
- 2:01:49Speaker 11: Yeah, it's a lot of work, and you have to
- 2:01:51Speaker 11: do it very intentional to kind of unprogram them every
- 2:01:54Speaker 11: single day. But yeah, absolutely. Parents would have been embarrassed
- 2:01:57Speaker 11: forty years ago to send their kids to school without
- 2:01:59Speaker 11: them learning to read. But because the system has trained
- 2:02:02Speaker 11: each generation that the system's going to teach them how
- 2:02:05Speaker 11: to read. Now we have parents who expect this public
- 2:02:08Speaker 11: school teacher to teach thirty kids to read in a
- 2:02:10Speaker 11: classroom which is just a ridiculous assumption. And so we
- 2:02:15Speaker 11: need to understand that this mass education is form is
- 2:02:19Speaker 11: specifically designed to create a uniform, obedient student, basically to
- 2:02:24Speaker 11: create a soldier for the government that will do whatever
- 2:02:30Speaker 11: those in power tell them to do.
- 2:02:32Speaker 1: Now, you are inspired by a very important woman in
- 2:02:35Speaker 1: your life, and the reason and behind the Classical Conversations
- 2:02:38Speaker 1: incorporated your mom, and she can serve as an inspiration
- 2:02:42Speaker 1: for a lot of listeners out there who have school
- 2:02:44Speaker 1: aged children to maybe choose a different path. Am I right?
- 2:02:47Speaker 11: Yeah, So my mom, Lee Barton, she homeschooled us through
- 2:02:51Speaker 11: high school, and she started Classical Conversations when I was
- 2:02:54Speaker 11: a freshman to help other people be able to successfully
- 2:02:57Speaker 11: educate their kids and get themselves out of this woke
- 2:03:02Speaker 11: progressive system.
- 2:03:03Speaker 1: Well, in your Classical Conversations and what is that business
- 2:03:08Speaker 1: designed to do?
- 2:03:10Speaker 11: Yeah, So we have a full K through twelve curriculum
- 2:03:13Speaker 11: and we focus on parent empowerment. So we do like
- 2:03:16Speaker 11: free parent homeschooling boot camps as well as one day
- 2:03:19Speaker 11: a week homeschooling communities that go through the curriculum with
- 2:03:23Speaker 11: groups of eight to twelve students. And so it's so
- 2:03:28Speaker 11: it's kind of an apple of homeschooling. We've got all
- 2:03:30Speaker 11: the systems designed for you and gives you a great education.
- 2:03:34Speaker 1: Now speak to the parent or parents out there that
- 2:03:37Speaker 1: are listening. Going, you know, I would do anything to
- 2:03:39Speaker 1: be able to homeschool. I just can't because somebody's got
- 2:03:41Speaker 1: to pay the bills around here. I got to work,
- 2:03:43Speaker 1: which is why I'm relying on the public schools. There
- 2:03:46Speaker 1: have been a lot of expansions and improvements and you know,
- 2:03:49Speaker 1: cooperative working together homeschool parents. You can share the homeschooling
- 2:03:54Speaker 1: with others, and there are resources out there to do
- 2:03:56Speaker 1: just that, aren't there.
- 2:03:58Speaker 11: Yeah, so there's so many more ways people can homeschool.
- 2:04:02Speaker 11: And of course it's really when they're younger that you
- 2:04:04Speaker 11: need to be there, you know, twenty four to seven
- 2:04:05Speaker 11: with them. But yeah, whether it's grandparents stepping in, or
- 2:04:09Speaker 11: you know, a person that works from home Monday and
- 2:04:11Speaker 11: another person works from home Tuesday and the kids bump
- 2:04:14Speaker 11: around to five houses like on your cul de sac
- 2:04:17Speaker 11: and their homeschooling. You know, there's so many different ways
- 2:04:20Speaker 11: now to homeschool your kids. And of course a lot
- 2:04:23Speaker 11: of that is just like we've been programmed through the
- 2:04:26Speaker 11: poblic school system to be on this consumer hedonistic campster wheel,
- 2:04:31Speaker 11: which doesn't satisfy anyone. So a lot of it is
- 2:04:34Speaker 11: just reordering our lives to things that matter over the
- 2:04:37Speaker 11: long term instead of short term gains as well.
- 2:04:40Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, it has to matter. That's the thing
- 2:04:43Speaker 1: that bothers me so much, sir, that people just don't
- 2:04:46Speaker 1: seem to really care about their children. We've got a
- 2:04:48Speaker 1: societal problem with you know, teenagers, fourteen year olds running
- 2:04:51Speaker 1: around two o'clock in the morning raising three forms of
- 2:04:53Speaker 1: Holy hell because all of their social media friends decided
- 2:04:56Speaker 1: to you know, converge at one spot, one moment in time.
- 2:04:58Speaker 1: If you can't, if you don't care about where you're
- 2:05:00Speaker 1: kid is a two o'clock in the morning. I can't
- 2:05:01Speaker 1: imagine that person having enough concern to know anything that's
- 2:05:04Speaker 1: going on in that child life, let alone to know
- 2:05:06Speaker 1: what the curriculum is at a school.
- 2:05:08Speaker 11: Yeah, well exactly, But that's been trained to us through generations,
- 2:05:13Speaker 11: through the school system itself. And so we have to
- 2:05:15Speaker 11: break the cycle of dependency. We have to break the
- 2:05:17Speaker 11: cycle of destruction in our families. And so it just
- 2:05:20Speaker 11: takes fathers returning their hearts back to their children. And
- 2:05:24Speaker 11: it is sacrificial sistle. You do have to give up
- 2:05:27Speaker 11: certain things that you might want to do in order
- 2:05:29Speaker 11: to give the next generation more than you have. But
- 2:05:33Speaker 11: this is the first generation we've had in America that's
- 2:05:35Speaker 11: looking at the prospect of being less well off than
- 2:05:37Speaker 11: their parents. Why did that happen Well because parents decided
- 2:05:41Speaker 11: to become good little consumers instead of pouring back into
- 2:05:45Speaker 11: their kids. And so we've had this kind of selfish
- 2:05:48Speaker 11: generation raising this next one, and we have to cut
- 2:05:51Speaker 11: it off at its.
- 2:05:52Speaker 1: Head, or Robert not raising children at all because there's
- 2:05:55Speaker 1: so selfis I don't want to have any Yeah.
- 2:05:58Speaker 11: Yeah, and we're dying the West is done not so
- 2:06:00Speaker 11: much here in the United States, but we're below replacement,
- 2:06:03Speaker 11: yes we are. So it's cultural suicide that we're starting
- 2:06:06Speaker 11: to experience. And we're already seeing that in Japan and
- 2:06:09Speaker 11: South Korea and in Europe.
- 2:06:11Speaker 7: I mean, we'll have.
- 2:06:13Speaker 11: You know, some of these countries over there, you won't
- 2:06:16Speaker 11: even recognize them in twenty years because of just the
- 2:06:20Speaker 11: cultural suicide of not having children. But of course we've
- 2:06:24Speaker 11: looked at children instead of a blessing. Now we look
- 2:06:26Speaker 11: at them as a burden. And so it's just a
- 2:06:28Speaker 11: whole entire si op against the family that's been introduced
- 2:06:33Speaker 11: through these Marxist school systems.
- 2:06:34Speaker 1: It really is, and it's convergence of all these different
- 2:06:37Speaker 1: left wing elements, most notably I would say, the Greens,
- 2:06:39Speaker 1: along with the Dei folks and the others, and this
- 2:06:43Speaker 1: whole concept of equity. I think the equity component is
- 2:06:45Speaker 1: where you get the collective dumbing down because you've got
- 2:06:48Speaker 1: a whole group of people over here that apparently don't
- 2:06:50Speaker 1: have the resources or whatever it is that they're behind
- 2:06:53Speaker 1: in school. But we can't have that. We need to
- 2:06:56Speaker 1: slow everybody else and basically stop those that are really
- 2:07:00Speaker 1: outstanding achievers just to lump them into mediocrity with everybody else,
- 2:07:05Speaker 1: just because that's what's fair and that's insane.
- 2:07:08Speaker 11: Well yeah, that's why all these countries, especially Europe, who's
- 2:07:12Speaker 11: adopted these things way earlier than the United States and
- 2:07:15Speaker 11: way more aggressively. I mean, they're they're they're just poor now.
- 2:07:18Speaker 11: I mean the average European country is poorer than our
- 2:07:21Speaker 11: poorest state. So, uh, this whole ideology is destructive. But again,
- 2:07:27Speaker 11: to work work, some people say, I'm smart, I want
- 2:07:31Speaker 11: smarter people to know more than me, so that we
- 2:07:33Speaker 11: can have medical devices and cure cancer and be it
- 2:07:38Speaker 11: a fly on airplanes safely.
- 2:07:40Speaker 1: I mean, I want smart people.
- 2:07:42Speaker 11: And then the fact that we've got these equity programs
- 2:07:45Speaker 11: that are shutting down, you know, Advanced Learning Opportunities and
- 2:07:49Speaker 11: AP classes and things like that. I mean, that is
- 2:07:53Speaker 11: just an asinine perspective that only a Marxist could come
- 2:07:56Speaker 11: up with.
- 2:07:57Speaker 1: Yeah, and that in and of itself as suicide. AP
- 2:07:59Speaker 1: classes are for the smartest. The smartest are the ones
- 2:08:01Speaker 1: that invent great things and employ all of us. You know, Robert,
- 2:08:05Speaker 1: I've been a W two employee my entire life. I
- 2:08:07Speaker 1: thank God for smarter people than me that created the
- 2:08:09Speaker 1: resources to give me a job. You know, smart people
- 2:08:12Speaker 1: do great things for America. We need more of them,
- 2:08:15Speaker 1: not fewer of them. Name of the book, Woke and Weaponized.
- 2:08:18Speaker 1: How Karl Marx won the battle for American education and
- 2:08:20Speaker 1: how we can win it. You know, as we part
- 2:08:22Speaker 1: company here, Robert, and I can't thank you enough for
- 2:08:24Speaker 1: writing this book. And you wrote it for I understand
- 2:08:27Speaker 1: parents considering homeschooling Christian families, those who are advocates of
- 2:08:30Speaker 1: classical education, and that's where I wanted to mention my
- 2:08:33Speaker 1: friends at Cincinnati Classical because that school does cheach classical education.
- 2:08:40Speaker 1: It's kind of like Hillsdale College for K through twelve,
- 2:08:43Speaker 1: outstanding resource for those who are lucky enough to win
- 2:08:46Speaker 1: the lottery and get in. That's an alternative homeschool, but
- 2:08:49Speaker 1: you're guaranteed the classical education that you'd be able to
- 2:08:52Speaker 1: do if you had your own curriculum. And I'll recommend
- 2:08:54Speaker 1: my folks are my listeners, get in touch with Classical
- 2:08:56Speaker 1: Conversations in to check out your curriculum. Again, thank you
- 2:09:00Speaker 1: for the book. We put your book up on my
- 2:09:01Speaker 1: blog Paget fifty five cars dot com. Soever it can
- 2:09:04Speaker 1: get a copy of Woken Weaponized Robert. Thank you for
- 2:09:06Speaker 1: what you're doing, and keep up the great work and
- 2:09:09Speaker 1: keep speaking truth to this insanity that our children being
- 2:09:12Speaker 1: brainwashed with
