- 0:56Speaker 4: in a moment or two some more and get some
- 0:58Speaker 4: more of the US from down there. He wrote a
- 1:01Speaker 4: great column at sea fact dot org about gas lighting,
- 1:05Speaker 4: which I believe contributes to greenhouse gas, but they do
- 1:08Speaker 4: it anyway. But first, our first things this morning shut down.
- 1:14Speaker 4: The House Rules Committee voted just before to this morning
- 1:18Speaker 4: to pass on the Senate passed compromise bill regarding the
- 1:23Speaker 4: partial government shutdown that includes a retrieval of all the
- 1:28Speaker 4: federal employees that had been fired in the reductions in
- 1:32Speaker 4: force and a promise to never do it again. The
- 1:37Speaker 4: House Democrats, meanwhile, have passed a three year extension on
- 1:42Speaker 4: the Affordable Care Act enhanced tax credits, should they be
- 1:47Speaker 4: able to staple it on to their deal with the Senate. Now,
- 1:52Speaker 4: the Senate has made this deal under the contingency that
- 1:55Speaker 4: they would debate this separately, and Republicans have said they
- 1:59Speaker 4: have replacement for Obamacare. Meanwhile, the Supreme Court Tuesday extended
- 2:07Speaker 4: an order blocking full snap benefits payment from the federal government,
- 2:12Speaker 4: amid signals that the shutdown could be ending as soon
- 2:16Speaker 4: as today or tomorrow. The US Navy's aircraft carrier USS
- 2:21Speaker 4: Gerald R Ford and its Strike Group have entered US
- 2:25Speaker 4: Southern Commands Area of responsibility in the Caribbean Tuesday, marking
- 2:30Speaker 4: a major redeployment of US Naval power into the Western
- 2:34Speaker 4: Hemisphere as part of their Department of War efforts against
- 2:39Speaker 4: drug trafficking. A massive bridge at a hydro power station
- 2:44Speaker 4: in southwest China collapsed today, sending concrete and steel plunging
- 2:48Speaker 4: into a river. The bridge had only been opened to
- 2:51Speaker 4: just months ago, according to state media Reuters reporting. An
- 2:56Speaker 4: official from Barkham County confirmed the collapse to the on
- 3:00Speaker 4: these state run Global Times, and Jack Schlossberg, grandson of JFK,
- 3:06Speaker 4: is running for Congress from Manhattan Island back with Peter
- 3:11Speaker 4: Murphy of Sea Fact in Brazil at COP thirty and
- 3:15Speaker 4: I saw the headline of your most recent article at
- 3:19Speaker 4: seafact dot org climate delusions and gas Lighting at COP
- 3:23Speaker 4: thirty and I said, gosh, gas lighting's got to contribute
- 3:27Speaker 4: to somebody's carbon footprint. But they seem to do it anyway.
- 3:31Speaker 4: What are they doing, as you say, to hold us up,
- 3:34Speaker 4: hold us hostage for more control and more money.
- 3:40Speaker 2: They are expressing mass climate hysteria and gloom and doom
- 3:48Speaker 2: that our future hangs in the balance. The Secretary General
- 3:51Speaker 2: of the US Antonio Gutierrez, for example, claimed that not
- 3:56Speaker 2: only are ecosystems on the tipping point of extinction or
- 4:02Speaker 2: wipeout or whatever word he used, gave no time frame,
- 4:06Speaker 2: gave no examples, just said it, so we're supposed to
- 4:09Speaker 2: believe it, filled with truism that are unprovable. But he
- 4:12Speaker 2: actually cited that war and conflicts are inevitable because of
- 4:19Speaker 2: climate change. Something are going right, So that's why a
- 4:21Speaker 2: lot of mer pruten invaded Ukraine. Right, that's why Hamas
- 4:24Speaker 2: attacked Israel. Yeah, climate change. Who knew there's going to
- 4:27Speaker 2: be even more of.
- 4:28Speaker 4: That Peter I have I have watched people stand in
- 4:34Speaker 4: elected and representative bodies make that making that very case
- 4:37Speaker 4: that Hamas only attacked and killed all those Israeli citizens
- 4:41Speaker 4: because they don't have enough resources, and that Russia needs
- 4:45Speaker 4: the Ukraine's resources because their climate is It's crazy, but
- 4:50Speaker 4: they are. They're out there, and they'll stand there with
- 4:53Speaker 4: a podium that makes them look like they have some
- 4:55Speaker 4: sort of gravity. It's amazing.
- 4:58Speaker 2: These are his Look, the conflicts are about longstanding historical
- 5:03Speaker 2: grievances over real estate. That's it. It ain't about the weather, never.
- 5:09Speaker 4: Was, isn't is anyone Is anyone in the press out
- 5:14Speaker 4: there even pushing back on some of this After all
- 5:16Speaker 4: this time, somebody's got to be out there saying, we've
- 5:21Speaker 4: been doing this thirty years and you still aren't giving
- 5:24Speaker 4: us any details. As a matter of fact, it sounds
- 5:26Speaker 4: like they're giving less details than they did before. Well.
- 5:32Speaker 2: Look, well, I think most of the media that we
- 5:34Speaker 2: come across are very sympathetic to this, and a lot
- 5:39Speaker 2: of the media folks also compete for access and airspace
- 5:43Speaker 2: and face time with these people, so there's not a
- 5:46Speaker 2: lot of adversarial press. One reason we're out here is
- 5:49Speaker 2: a pretty lonely battle, you know, in terms of pushing back.
- 5:54Speaker 2: But you know, that's that's the way most of the
- 5:56Speaker 2: media is that they're not they're not particularly balanced in
- 6:01Speaker 2: their coverage. They're you know, and it's not that they
- 6:03Speaker 2: believe every line, but a lot of them just chalk
- 6:06Speaker 2: it up to, well, that's politicians politicians and balanced politicians
- 6:09Speaker 2: by whatever. Yeah, it's probably bad, maybe not as bad
- 6:12Speaker 2: as I mean, they rationalize their coverage because to admit
- 6:16Speaker 2: or to push back or to challenge basic assumptions, whether
- 6:20Speaker 2: it's COVID, whether it's climate puts you on the outs,
- 6:24Speaker 2: or that's what they're afraid of that they're not going
- 6:26Speaker 2: to they'll be on the they'll be on the outside
- 6:29Speaker 2: looking in. And access is craved by most media.
- 6:33Speaker 4: Oh sure, it's it's currency to them. I mean, it's
- 6:35Speaker 4: it's almost like, and you know, these folks who are
- 6:37Speaker 4: by in fentanyl at the on the street corner in
- 6:41Speaker 4: their town. They've they've grown addicted to the opiate of popularity.
- 6:45Speaker 4: So being able to say we have an exclusive sit
- 6:48Speaker 4: down with Prince William is more important than actually telling
- 6:53Speaker 4: the truth to their viewers. Peter Murphy see fact the

- 8:04Speaker 8: Considered by most Optimized curcumin is one of the few
- 8:07Speaker 8: bioavailable and highly absorbable curcumin products on the market. I
- 8:13Speaker 8: am doctor Mitch. Since most chronic diseases have inflammation, our
- 8:18Speaker 8: optimized curcumin seems to be a perfect addition to any
- 8:22Speaker 8: nutritional program. It makes sense to me that preventing or
- 8:26Speaker 8: reducing inflammation is a key component to our overall health.
- 8:32Speaker 8: The Mayo Clinic found that kurcumin can decrease swelling and inflammation,
- 8:37Speaker 8: has antioxidant properties, and research suggests that kurcumin can prevent
- 8:42Speaker 8: cancer or at least slow the spread of cancer, and
- 8:46Speaker 8: in many instances, make chemotherapy more effective. It protects our
- 8:51Speaker 8: healthy cells even from radiation. Total Wellness dot com where

- 9:58Speaker 10: Hi everybody, I'm Jackman, and it's always a boy. Growing
- 10:01Speaker 10: up on a farm in Tennessee, I've been fascinated with animals.
- 10:04Speaker 10: I'm not only in all of their beauty and kindness,
- 10:06Speaker 10: but also their tireless work ethic. Just look at the
- 10:09Speaker 10: birds who gather supplies to build nests, or Swiss foxes who.
- 10:12Speaker 4: Work hard to provide for their young, or.
- 10:14Speaker 10: Penguins who travel up to five hundred miles to secure
- 10:17Speaker 10: food for their families, or bush babies whose impressive jump
- 10:20Speaker 10: allows them to navigate the trees and the wild in
- 10:23Speaker 10: search of fruit. This remarkable work ethic is shared by
- 10:25Speaker 10: our best friends, the canines. We know dogs are wonderful
- 10:29Speaker 10: pets at home, but because of their acute senses, they
- 10:32Speaker 10: also perform life saving work every day.
- 10:34Speaker 4: Dogs keep us safe at airports.
- 10:36Speaker 10: They comfort returning veterans, some of whom suffer from PTS.
- 10:39Speaker 10: They work with diabetics, alerting them when there's a change.
- 10:42Speaker 4: In their blood chemistry.
- 10:43Speaker 10: Working dogs have a variety of highly trained roles that
- 10:45Speaker 10: contribute to society and help those in need. So please
- 10:48Speaker 10: join me an American Humane and supporting our heroic working
- 10:51Speaker 10: dogs and all the amazing animals on this planet we
- 10:54Speaker 10: inhabit together. Go to American Humane dot org to learn more.
- 11:00Speaker 11: Bruh, that's buzzed. Oh yeah, yeah, he's starting with the woots.
- 11:05Speaker 12: And now a speech.
- 11:07Speaker 13: I just want to say that friendship is about heart,
- 11:10Speaker 13: art and brain.
- 11:12Speaker 14: Who's with me?
- 11:13Speaker 13: Good thing is he knows when he's buzzed, and my
- 11:15Speaker 13: brain is saying when it's time to go home.
- 11:18Speaker 11: Somebody call me a ride.
- 11:19Speaker 15: Love that guy, me too.
- 11:21Speaker 16: Know your buzzed warning signs, call for a ride when
- 11:24Speaker 16: it's time to go home.
- 11:25Speaker 4: Buzz driving is drunk driving.
- 11:29Speaker 5: Did you know that more than half our household energy
- 11:31Speaker 5: costs go to heating and cooling. Energy efficiency isn't just
- 11:35Speaker 5: good for the environment, It means lower utility bills too.
- 11:39Speaker 5: One way to reduce your energy waste is a home
- 11:42Speaker 5: energy assessment. Your utility company can help, or you can
- 11:46Speaker 5: learn how to do it yourself at energysavers dot gov.
- 11:49Speaker 5: That's energysavers dot gov. You'll learn to look for air
- 11:53Speaker 5: leaks around windows and doors, check ducks for holes, and
- 11:56Speaker 5: improve your insulation. Another time to cut energy costs is
- 12:00Speaker 5: when you shop for a new appliance. Look for the
- 12:02Speaker 5: energy Star logo and read the energy Guide label. And
- 12:06Speaker 5: there are day to day things you can do. Lower
- 12:09Speaker 5: your thermostat and winter and raise it in the summer,
- 12:12Speaker 5: close fireplay stampers when they're not in use, and keep
- 12:15Speaker 5: air filters clean. For more tips on saving money by

- 12:32Speaker 17: first to notice when a veteran you love has been
- 12:35Speaker 17: going through changes. Things like withdrawing, drinking more, or increased
- 12:40Speaker 17: anger could be a sign of a larger health concern,

- 13:15Speaker 4: Joe Thomas visiting with Peter Murphy of the Committee for
- 13:18Speaker 4: a Common Center of Constructive Tomorrow. Peter down in Brazil
- 13:24Speaker 4: with a team of folks from Sea Fact covering the
- 13:28Speaker 4: Committee of the Partners is what COP stands for COP
- 13:31Speaker 4: thirty talking about climate right, Peter.
- 13:35Speaker 2: Yes, climate change. It goes up, down, sideways changes. Nobody's
- 13:41Speaker 2: denying climate change. It's been happening since the Earth was created,
- 13:45Speaker 2: naturally or spiritually. It's been happening the entire time. We
- 13:50Speaker 2: have little ice ages, we have warming period, medieval warming period,
- 13:54Speaker 2: we have today, whatever today is. I mean, yeah, emissions
- 13:58Speaker 2: have gone up, but that to me proves the opposite
- 14:00Speaker 2: emissions in climate change are not cause and effect. Carbon
- 14:04Speaker 2: emissions from mankind, which affects one of the atmospheric gas
- 14:09Speaker 2: on the planet, does not alter the planet.
- 14:12Speaker 4: Well, and as you've pointed out, but you've you've pointed
- 14:18Speaker 4: this out as well, and ce fact has been right
- 14:21Speaker 4: in the center square of it. There have been ice
- 14:24Speaker 4: ages and meltdowns happening long before humans even existed on
- 14:30Speaker 4: the planet, and we have planetary record of it. That's
- 14:33Speaker 4: maybe why they don't want any scientists involved, right, so.
- 14:39Speaker 2: They'll mention science, but again they never provide any backup
- 14:44Speaker 2: to what they're saying. It's all it looks. It's politics,
- 14:47Speaker 2: it's control, it's trying to reorder society. And what we're
- 14:52Speaker 2: going to see this weekend is what this is really about.
- 14:55Speaker 2: That is just a gigantic woke exercise. They're going to
- 14:58Speaker 2: be protests for you know, communism and Marxism and you
- 15:04Speaker 2: know government running everything. I mean, there's going to be
- 15:06Speaker 2: one thousand, ten thousand Zorian mandamis, you know, running around Beliem,
- 15:12Speaker 2: demanding even more of countries like the US and so
- 15:16Speaker 2: called wealthy countries that, by the way, are trillions of
- 15:19Speaker 2: dollars in debt. So it's not like we have it
- 15:21Speaker 2: sitting in a vault underneath the capital.
- 15:24Speaker 4: But and again it's it's about establishing electoral power. So
- 15:29Speaker 4: you know, vote for me and I'm going to you know,
- 15:31Speaker 4: clean the air, and then we do. When they don't,
- 15:34Speaker 4: and they come back and say, well it was because
- 15:36Speaker 4: of so and so they pointed you or me, or
- 15:39Speaker 4: they they send their attorney general avatars after us. Oh yeah,
- 15:43Speaker 4: it's and it's always somebody else's fault.
- 15:48Speaker 2: Well, here's here's the big contradiction of this whole thing
- 15:53Speaker 2: and good environmental policy, clean air, clean water, you know, less,
- 15:59Speaker 2: pollution and climate policy are two different things. In fact,
- 16:03Speaker 2: climate policies war against nature and sound environmental policy. They
- 16:09Speaker 2: destroy landscapes, they take over agriculture space, They destroy birds,
- 16:16Speaker 2: you know, millions of birds a year. These windmills, they
- 16:19Speaker 2: kill whales in the North Atlantic. I mean, the climate
- 16:23Speaker 2: policies they demand, you know, just square miles after square
- 16:27Speaker 2: miles of solar fields, as John Kerry demanded, are destructive
- 16:32Speaker 2: to habitats, destructive to nature, and just say nothing of
- 16:38Speaker 2: the fact that, you know, how do you get rid
- 16:39Speaker 2: of these things when they out, when they run out
- 16:42Speaker 2: of their usefulness in twenty years. You know, these massive
- 16:45Speaker 2: wind turbines, these massive solar panels, they're useless and non recyclable.
- 16:50Speaker 4: Well, and this is something even California, of all places,
- 16:54Speaker 4: regards these solar panels as the hazardous material when it
- 16:58Speaker 4: comes to disposal of it. And nobody ever asks this.
- 17:01Speaker 4: Every time another county supervisor votes to allow some old
- 17:06Speaker 4: soybean farm to be turned into a solar farm, and
- 17:10Speaker 4: I would argue salting that earth forever and it'll never
- 17:14Speaker 4: be agricultural again because of all the crap that oozes
- 17:17Speaker 4: out of these things. It's it's right, it is crazy,
- 17:21Speaker 4: But nobody ever says, hey, what have we checked? But
- 17:24Speaker 4: if you say, if you even say the word pipeline,
- 17:27Speaker 4: you'll be investigated by the EPA.
- 17:32Speaker 2: Well, not only that, but they claim the opposite. Gavinism
- 17:35Speaker 2: is now down here Governor of California. There is no
- 17:39Speaker 2: Trump administration presence here. President Trump wisely pulled the plug,
- 17:44Speaker 2: no delegation here. So Gavin Newsom is now claiming this
- 17:49Speaker 2: climate leadership and we can't see that global leadership to
- 17:52Speaker 2: China blah blah blah, which is something China would love
- 17:56Speaker 2: America to be suckered into this like it was all
- 17:59Speaker 2: these years. Yeah, and Trump has wisely pulled the plug
- 18:02Speaker 2: on it or not, that's how we lose our power,
- 18:05Speaker 2: That's how we lose our sovereignty by participating in this
- 18:08Speaker 2: global farce. But yet Gavin Newsom's running around claiming we
- 18:14Speaker 2: got to do more of this in California is the
- 18:16Speaker 2: great example. California is a great example of way out
- 18:19Speaker 2: of proportion energy costs. The highest gasoline for Gallon by
- 18:24Speaker 2: Farth and more than any other state. The cost of
- 18:27Speaker 2: living is dreadful. Businesses and people are leaving for the
- 18:30Speaker 2: first time in California. Is you know, one hundred and
- 18:33Speaker 2: eighty year history is a state they're actually receding in
- 18:36Speaker 2: population and industry now because of in part at least
- 18:41Speaker 2: because of the political classes climate of session led by
- 18:45Speaker 2: Gavin Newsom.
- 18:47Speaker 4: Peter, last question for you. I made the case earlier.
- 18:53Speaker 4: We're talking about this Obamacare subsidies, and the subsidy is
- 18:56Speaker 4: now a fifty year mortgage and all this other stuff
- 18:59Speaker 4: that they're throwing out there. More subsidized nation, even by
- 19:02Speaker 4: Republicans in America. But it's the same in this COP
- 19:06Speaker 4: thirty because we listen to the Chicago Climate exchange stuff
- 19:10Speaker 4: and all of that, and oh it's a good fiscal
- 19:12Speaker 4: Oh you can make lots of money selling carbon credits
- 19:16Speaker 4: and everything.
- 19:17Speaker 9: This is.
- 19:18Speaker 4: A case I've been making that when a Republican, especially
- 19:22Speaker 4: a conservative, claims that he's pro business, people hear him
- 19:26Speaker 4: say he's a capitalist, when that's not what he is
- 19:29Speaker 4: at all. He's going along with these businesses that are
- 19:32Speaker 4: seeing climate change. From where you're sitting as a great
- 19:36Speaker 4: you know, cash grab for them. That's how you get
- 19:38Speaker 4: the Enrons and the people like that who have SUPPORTCEE
- 19:42Speaker 4: and all these people.
- 19:46Speaker 2: Right, big corporations stand a gain by government financed or
- 19:51Speaker 2: subsidized climate schemes. So it's just big lobbyists because it
- 19:56Speaker 2: means bigger money for corporations to do things do absolutely
- 20:01Speaker 2: worthless things like carbon capture, carbon sequestration, have carbon out
- 20:06Speaker 2: in the atmosphere. It's only life sustaining.
- 20:09Speaker 4: But never mind. Yeah, yeah, it's not going to change
- 20:11Speaker 4: the climate.
- 20:12Speaker 2: But yet you have these massive schemes out there. And look,
- 20:15Speaker 2: this has always been the case government collusion with corporation
- 20:18Speaker 2: slash donors. It's like a money laundering. The government provides
- 20:22Speaker 2: subsidies that you make money off of doing certain projects,
- 20:27Speaker 2: whether it's carbon capture or or you know, some other
- 20:32Speaker 2: solar field or whatever it is, and donations in turn
- 20:36Speaker 2: go back to the party that's providing it. So it's
- 20:38Speaker 2: the massive money laundering exercise, if you will. And you
- 20:45Speaker 2: know it's got to be exposed and stuff. I mean,
- 20:47Speaker 2: carbon credits are a way of living your life the
- 20:52Speaker 2: way you want. Like Al Gore has his eight bedroom,
- 20:55Speaker 2: you know, ten bathroom home that uses more electricity than
- 20:59Speaker 2: you know, the the most municipalities in the year. But
- 21:04Speaker 2: he you know, trades carbon credits, so he's you know,
- 21:06Speaker 2: paying it back so to speak. Yeah, you know, it's
- 21:09Speaker 2: it's a guilt trip exercise. But as far as an
- 21:12Speaker 2: economic growth issue, it's it's none of those things. Government's
- 21:15Speaker 2: taxing and borrowing it to pay for carbon credits and
- 21:22Speaker 2: capture schemes. That's not helping the economy. That's just transferring
- 21:26Speaker 2: well from one from the taxpayer to the corporations. It's
- 21:29Speaker 2: a preposterous scheme and it will help nobody but the
- 21:32Speaker 2: grifters who benefit.
- 21:34Speaker 4: Yeah, we have a word for that. Karl Marx coined it.
- 21:37Speaker 4: But Peter, we must run there. Thank you for everything.

- 22:01Speaker 18: Let's see if something costs less but people are happier
- 22:05Speaker 18: with it, that sounds like something to look into, and
- 22:07Speaker 18: that is meta share. Maybe you've heard switching to meta
- 22:10Speaker 18: share to pay for healthcare can save many families up
- 22:13Speaker 18: to five hundred bucks a month, and that is huge.
- 22:15Speaker 18: But it's also true that people are way more satisfied
- 22:18Speaker 18: after making the switch too. The member's satisfaction rate for
- 22:21Speaker 18: meta share is double that of the typical health insurance plan.
- 22:25Speaker 18: Double Meta share works too. It's been around for thirty years.
- 22:28Speaker 18: Members have shared more than five billion dollars of each

- 24:07Speaker 8: bioavailable and highly absorbable curcumin products on the market. Hi,
- 24:12Speaker 8: I'm doctor Mitch. Since most chronic diseases have inflammation, our
- 24:18Speaker 8: optimized curcumin seems to be a perfect addition to any
- 24:22Speaker 8: nutritional program. It makes sense to me that preventing or
- 24:26Speaker 8: reducing inflammation is a key component to our overall health.
- 24:31Speaker 8: The Mayo Clinic found that kurcumin can decrease swelling and inflammation,
- 24:36Speaker 8: has antioxidant properties, and research suggests that kurcumin can prevent
- 24:42Speaker 8: cancer or at least slow the spread of cancer, and
- 24:45Speaker 8: in many instances, make chemotherapy more effective. It protects our

- 28:23Speaker 1: and free of artificial intelligence.
- 28:25Speaker 21: I'm from the government and I'm here to help.
- 28:28Speaker 4: Thank you make me look bad. John's hanging out with
- 28:34Speaker 4: this this morning, first thing today on the Treasury Coast,
- 28:37Speaker 4: listening to us on wt TV FM. Okay, John, what's
- 28:41Speaker 4: on your mind?
- 28:43Speaker 22: Yeah, I'm a little bit confused by it all. I'm
- 28:45Speaker 22: not out of depth at all this stuff going on
- 28:48Speaker 22: in Congress. But does Donald Trump ont of this new
- 28:50Speaker 22: reopening of the government coming up here? Is he still
- 28:53Speaker 22: going to be able to to uh? Is he still
- 28:59Speaker 22: going to be able to furlow those no, those fedtal
- 29:04Speaker 22: embedded Marxist out of the government.
- 29:06Speaker 4: Nope, Nope, nope and nope. That's the deal that Tim
- 29:10Speaker 4: Kaine caught was that first off, they have to hire
- 29:14Speaker 4: all of the ones that they fired back and then
- 29:17Speaker 4: promise to not fire any others. So I hope that
- 29:20Speaker 4: somebody gets this information to the president because the Republicans
- 29:24Speaker 4: are not making it a very clear thing. John Thune
- 29:27Speaker 4: and all these folks are patting themselves on the back.
- 29:30Speaker 4: And I guess it comes down to whether it's worth
- 29:33Speaker 4: it or not to try to replace Obamacare. So the
- 29:36Speaker 4: gambit is, John, that you give up on the riffs,
- 29:41Speaker 4: the reductions in force, you give up on that so
- 29:45Speaker 4: that you can Apparently they're going to introduce one of
- 29:50Speaker 4: the repeal and Replace updates side by side with the
- 29:55Speaker 4: debate over the extension of Obamacare subsidies, and and we're
- 30:01Speaker 4: supposed to give up on all the recisions into the
- 30:03Speaker 4: size of government under the idea that maybe, just maybe
- 30:08Speaker 4: we will manage to win a debate over repeal and
- 30:14Speaker 4: Replace in the Senate. So there's a lot of you know,
- 30:17Speaker 4: you've got a jack and a seven. Do you draw
- 30:21Speaker 4: or do you just stay and see if the dealer
- 30:26Speaker 4: goes over twenty one? Oh gosh, yeah, that's what I mean.
- 30:31Speaker 4: That's where we are. You're holding at seventeen right now,
- 30:34Speaker 4: and that's what everyone's putting their chips on. So I
- 30:37Speaker 4: hope I explained it for you. But that's what Tim
- 30:39Speaker 4: Kaine did, and that's what nobody is covering right now.
- 30:42Speaker 4: But I'm glad you asked. Yeah, thank you, Joe, you'd
- 30:46Speaker 4: be good.
- 30:49Speaker 23: I demanded that the White House gives some protection to
- 30:51Speaker 23: federal employees, so I got them to agree all the
- 30:54Speaker 23: furloughed employees come back with back pay. All the recently
- 30:58Speaker 23: riffed employees come back with back pay. And this was
- 31:01Speaker 23: the biggie, the hardest thing for them to agree to.
- 31:04Speaker 23: No mass layoffs, no rifts into the future. Two million
- 31:08Speaker 23: federal employees have been waking up since January twenty expecting
- 31:11Speaker 23: you to get a five to three a m. Email
- 31:13Speaker 23: from the Doge Brothers or somebody telling them that their
- 31:15Speaker 23: jobs are gone. We're now providing them that protection. Three
- 31:19Speaker 23: hundred and twenty thousand. I'm living Virginia with families to
- 31:22Speaker 23: feed and support. That was a big win for Virginia
- 31:24Speaker 23: and that's what got me to vote yes.
- 31:26Speaker 4: And funny enough, that's pretty much exactly how many votes
- 31:29Speaker 4: departed the Republican Party from twenty twenty one in the
- 31:33Speaker 4: gubernatorial election and switch to the Democratic Party. Can't imagine
- 31:37Speaker 4: there being a connection to that at all. No, No,
- 31:40Speaker 4: certainly not. Joe, What are you trying to say? What
- 31:43Speaker 4: kind of craven soul? Joins us on the radio? You're
- 31:46Speaker 4: supposed to be uplifting to us? I am, I am
- 31:49Speaker 4: with you. What could be more uplifting than knowing what's
- 31:52Speaker 4: going on? This is why I'm hoping. But as I
- 31:55Speaker 4: explained to John, the blackjack game is John Thune is
- 32:01Speaker 4: holding seventeen, and he hopes that the dealer busts because
- 32:10Speaker 4: right now we could have the reduction in force, continue,
- 32:19Speaker 4: continue to claw back money that has started to increase
- 32:22Speaker 4: the value of your dollars, or give up all that
- 32:27Speaker 4: on the chance. What was the game was that Bob
- 32:30Speaker 4: Barker did it for a lot of time? Was it
- 32:33Speaker 4: the price not prices right? Was it price is right?
- 32:37Speaker 4: And maybe it was where you got you got a
- 32:39Speaker 4: prize pack, but then you were offered the opportunity to
- 32:42Speaker 4: change or trade it for what's behind door number two?
- 32:46Speaker 4: You're like, uh hmm, I'll trade it. And it was
- 32:51Speaker 4: always a booby prize. It was like a clown costume
- 32:54Speaker 4: for Halloween or something. Oh I'm sorry you traded in
- 32:57Speaker 4: the new Camaro for the Halloween clown costume. Thanks for playing.
- 33:03Speaker 4: What Let's make a deal? And it wasn't Bob Barger,
- 33:06Speaker 4: then you know it was. It wasn't. It's the guy
- 33:08Speaker 4: the guy from whose line is it anyway now doing
- 33:11Speaker 4: let's make a deal. But that's but that's where we are.
- 33:15Speaker 4: That's what Tim Kaine has put on the table, is
- 33:19Speaker 4: you can have all these cuts to federal spending and
- 33:22Speaker 4: the decretion or secretion maybe if federal bloat. Ray writes, in,
- 33:29Speaker 4: of course, mister Trump can just ignore the law like
- 33:31Speaker 4: mister Obama ignored pot laws. Ray well said. There, he
- 33:36Speaker 4: goes on to point Senator Kane is like an oncologist
- 33:39Speaker 4: who protects tumors, no doubt. Democrats are the party of
- 33:44Speaker 4: government bloat, you know, and and we're in. We're against,
- 33:51Speaker 4: you know, appearance shaming, aren't we. Just because you're bloated
- 33:55Speaker 4: doesn't mean you're in bad health. So what we've told everyone,
- 33:59Speaker 4: that's why recruiting is so low at the military, because
- 34:02Speaker 4: we were telling kids, you know what being obese is. Okay,
- 34:06Speaker 4: it's your truth, says a guy who can easily lose
- 34:11Speaker 4: to a few pounds. But don't you dare say ozempic
- 34:14Speaker 4: to me. I'm trying. It's my problem is my wife
- 34:16Speaker 4: makes too much good food, and she cooks vegetarian. And yes,
- 34:21Speaker 4: you can get a shape like mine on a vegetarian
- 34:24Speaker 4: diet because you wind up having two servings of something.
- 34:28Speaker 4: Let me get to you first thing this morning with
- 34:30Speaker 4: Joe Thomas. That's me. Who's this.
- 34:33Speaker 24: Hi Joe? This is Nancy with Convention Estates.
- 34:36Speaker 4: Hey, Nancy, how are you doing this? Ted Steam morning?
- 34:40Speaker 24: I'm doing as well as could be expected. It's bright
- 34:43Speaker 24: and sunny and going to be warmer. I've got a
- 34:48Speaker 24: couple of things. I sent you information from an insurance
- 34:54Speaker 24: fellow in Ohio and he was testifying about calling for
- 35:00Speaker 24: or the Convention Estate's resolution. He said that fifteen percent
- 35:05Speaker 24: of our money goes to.
- 35:09Speaker 16: It.
- 35:10Speaker 24: Now I've forgotten. I think it's insurance companies. And along
- 35:14Speaker 24: with that the President Trump's idea of giving money to
- 35:21Speaker 24: us instead of insurance companies. If that's going to be
- 35:27Speaker 24: part of the new Obama care deal, I hope not.
- 35:32Speaker 24: I hope it's just a matter of stop taking money
- 35:35Speaker 24: from us and let us communicate with our health insurance people, ourselves,
- 35:45Speaker 24: and with our doctors. Like when I was a child,
- 35:48Speaker 24: it was before your time, but my parents just had
- 35:54Speaker 24: My parents had blue Cross, Blue Shield, and all they
- 35:58Speaker 24: used that for was when we were born or if
- 36:03Speaker 24: anybody needed surgery. Let us get back to that, you know,
- 36:07Speaker 24: as you've been saying forever and ever, the great Society.
- 36:11Speaker 24: It's what got us into this match, and we're worse off.
- 36:16Speaker 4: But it was all done to quell it was and
- 36:20Speaker 4: this is what I was saying yesterday about the difference
- 36:22Speaker 4: between the Fabian socialists and the Trotskyites socialists. So, you know,
- 36:29Speaker 4: Lyndon Johnson saw the Trotskyites marching in the streets, leading
- 36:33Speaker 4: the black community to riot and demand, you know, tearing
- 36:38Speaker 4: down of the society and taking what was theirs and
- 36:41Speaker 4: looting and all of that. So he decided, you know what,
- 36:44Speaker 4: we'll give him some Fabian socialism. So we'll say, listen,
- 36:48Speaker 4: we're gonna slowly do this. We're gonna and so the
- 36:52Speaker 4: trade off was we will create this slow moving, great
- 36:56Speaker 4: society rather in exchange for and I guess it's one
- 37:02Speaker 4: of those if we're going to continue to torture the
- 37:05Speaker 4: medical parlance, you know, we can prolong your life with
- 37:09Speaker 4: this treatment, or we can hospice you and let your
- 37:13Speaker 4: loved ones come and say goodbye in the next three months.
- 37:17Speaker 4: And that's kind of what we were doing economically in nineteen
- 37:20Speaker 4: sixty four.
- 37:22Speaker 24: Yeah, just government leave us alone. And that's what Convention
- 37:26Speaker 24: of States is about. And I thought that was pretty
- 37:29Speaker 24: funny how the Reagan quote got.
- 37:32Speaker 4: Yeah, they do that, they do that to me. You know,
- 37:35Speaker 4: I don't know what they're trying to say, but anyway,
- 37:37Speaker 4: you have a great morning, Nancy, and keep doing what
- 37:40Speaker 4: you're doing at Convention of States dot Com.
- 37:43Speaker 24: Yes, and just very quickly, Joe, it's fifteen percent of
- 37:46Speaker 24: health care costs are thanks to government regulations. God bless I.
- 37:51Speaker 4: Thank you, and I would make the case that that's
- 37:54Speaker 4: just what you know. We can clock right now, never
- 37:56Speaker 4: mind what we'll see if there's actually a free market instead.

- 38:05Speaker 11: hundred years of life saving service as the world's leading
- 38:07Speaker 11: nonprofit organization focused on heart and brain health. Heart disease
- 38:12Speaker 11: still kills more people in the United States each year
- 38:14Speaker 11: than all types of cancer combined, but more than half
- 38:17Speaker 11: of Americans are unaware of this fact, according to a
- 38:20Speaker 11: recent Harris Pole survey conducted for the American Heart Association. However,
- 38:25Speaker 11: the majority of heart disease is preventable. New research has
- 38:28Speaker 11: improved the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of heart disease and
- 38:32Speaker 11: its risk factors. Efforts led by the American Heart Association
- 38:35Speaker 11: have reduced deaths from heart disease by half over the
- 38:38Speaker 11: past century and helped people with heart disease live longer
- 38:41Speaker 11: and more productive lives. While managing their condition and risk factors.

- 41:03Speaker 12: neither is half as hard as dying. Sadly, type two diabetes,
- 41:08Speaker 12: heart disease, and stroke kill nearly a million people a year.
- 41:12Speaker 12: Even sadder, most of these deaths are preventable with a
- 41:15Speaker 12: few lifestyle changes, including regular activity, healthier eating, and not smoking.
- 41:22Speaker 12: Talk to your doctor about your risk for type two
- 41:24Speaker 12: diabetes and heart disease, and if your doctor recommends lifestyle
- 41:28Speaker 12: changes or medication, listen. The reason so many die is

- 44:11Speaker 1: Amaze your friends here A first thing today by Joe Thomas.
- 44:17Speaker 4: So the question is, Joe, this comes in by text,
- 44:23Speaker 4: Larry listening to us in Connecticut this morning. I'm coming home, curious, Larry,
- 44:36Speaker 4: whatid part of my grandma my mother's hometown do you
- 44:39Speaker 4: live in? They're listening on g H this morning. You
- 44:43Speaker 4: might be driving down Gunhill Road, not playing any Gunhill
- 44:46Speaker 4: Road today. The band on a Ted Steve, but just curious,
- 44:50Speaker 4: you know, it's just hanging out. Ever, see the wonderful
- 44:53Speaker 4: Dorothy hammel Ice skating rink that doesn't permit skiing, because
- 44:59Speaker 4: skating any more. It's just it's a wonderful thing where
- 45:03Speaker 4: I spent so much of my childhood and Greenwich. But
- 45:06Speaker 4: that being said, his question is what happens if we
- 45:10Speaker 4: do get rid of Obamacare. Well, here's the thing, and
- 45:16Speaker 4: this is why politicians continue to promulgate the idea of well,
- 45:23Speaker 4: we've already done all these things, so let's soften the landing,
- 45:27Speaker 4: or however it might be. And what I hear about
- 45:32Speaker 4: the proposal Republicans are going to make in early December
- 45:36Speaker 4: to repeal and replace Obamacare with trump Care. It involves
- 45:41Speaker 4: it's very much like a school choice voucher program where
- 45:45Speaker 4: we're going to spend all this taxpayer money on the
- 45:47Speaker 4: schools instead of us choosing which school it goes to.
- 45:51Speaker 4: You can. It's what it is. And as much as
- 45:54Speaker 4: I'd love to say school voucher, it is a better
- 45:59Speaker 4: solution than the one we have, but it still isn't
- 46:02Speaker 4: a free market solution. It still requires collecting all the
- 46:06Speaker 4: taxes from everyone else, and just in the case of
- 46:09Speaker 4: school vouchers, giving them to you. Same thing with the
- 46:12Speaker 4: Obamacare subsidies. Instead of you know, the insurance companies getting
- 46:17Speaker 4: the vouchers, you get them and you can put them
- 46:19Speaker 4: in a health savings account. You can do all any
- 46:22Speaker 4: number of things. The problem is the government heavily regulates
- 46:26Speaker 4: those things as well, so you know, faster than you
- 46:31Speaker 4: can say, doctor Josh Umber, he's Atlas Medical, you know,
- 46:36Speaker 4: the direct primary care founder, not a founder, but he
- 46:42Speaker 4: is the hero of direct primary care associations. The marketplace
- 46:49Speaker 4: is replete, Larry with examples of free market healthcare. As
- 46:55Speaker 4: I said, direct primary care associations. You've got health savings accounts,
- 47:03Speaker 4: you still have insurance comps. Most all insurance companies have
- 47:06Speaker 4: a major medical These are the things that you and I,
- 47:11Speaker 4: if you're old enough remember maybe the early eighties when
- 47:16Speaker 4: health insurance became a thing that employers started to offer
- 47:21Speaker 4: their employeeses twenty five bucks most employers. I was working
- 47:27Speaker 4: for a restaurant, a fast food restaurant, and they paid
- 47:30Speaker 4: for my health insurance because it was so inexpensive, because
- 47:38Speaker 4: it was covering you if you went into the hospital
- 47:41Speaker 4: after a car accident, or you had some major coronary
- 47:44Speaker 4: or something like that. It would cover that. But the
- 47:48Speaker 4: actuarial tables at the insurance company said, the likelihood of
- 47:54Speaker 4: that was rare, so we didn't have to charge you
- 47:56Speaker 4: a lot for it. So if all this healthcare subsidization
- 48:06Speaker 4: went away on Thursday, you know what would happen. A
- 48:12Speaker 4: couple of things. I can guarantee number one, with the
- 48:17Speaker 4: variants of maybe a couple of degrees, the sun would
- 48:20Speaker 4: rise in the same spot on the horizon that it
- 48:23Speaker 4: did this morning, and there would be people out there
- 48:27Speaker 4: providing medical care to people. We were talking about Pornell yesterday,
- 48:33Speaker 4: Pornell's iron law of the bureaucracy. You don't think that
- 48:37Speaker 4: that law applies to healthcare? Right now? We have bureaucratic healthcare.
- 48:43Speaker 4: Oh oh, shoot, before I forget, middle of the show.
- 48:47Speaker 4: I received a keyboard Warrior text from somebody who is
- 48:52Speaker 4: arguing and sent me a clip to the Wikipedia page.
- 48:55Speaker 4: I love it when Wikipedia is used to make somebody's
- 48:59Speaker 4: case because talking about this survey from the Kaiser Family Foundation,
- 49:05Speaker 4: and oh I and the first part of the text
- 49:09Speaker 4: here it is, Scherise writes in Joe, it's KFF. They
- 49:13Speaker 4: don't call themselves Kaiser Family Foundation anymore. Scherise, yes, And
- 49:19Speaker 4: KFC doesn't stand for Kentucky cry Chicken anymore either, does it.
- 49:25Speaker 4: Second off, she sends a link to the Wikipedia page
- 49:28Speaker 4: saying that they are not associated with Kaiser Permanente, not
- 49:34Speaker 4: now maybe per se And that's by saying they don't
- 49:39Speaker 4: get maybe direct money. This is like saying that the
- 49:42Speaker 4: Daily Signal and the Heritage Foundation are connected in some way,
- 49:46Speaker 4: shape or form. And I write for the Daily Signal
- 49:50Speaker 4: and my bosses are all Daily Signal employees. You know
- 49:54Speaker 4: where our offices are the same building as the Heritage Foundation.
- 49:59Speaker 4: It's okay, But they were being denied press access because
- 50:04Speaker 4: they were part of the Heritage Foundation. So they spun
- 50:06Speaker 4: them off and created their own They have their own budget,
- 50:09Speaker 4: their own payroll, their own you know, all of that
- 50:12Speaker 4: has done individually, and I'm sure the same is true
- 50:15Speaker 4: with k f F, which of course doesn't stand for
- 50:18Speaker 4: Kaiser Family Foundation. But in nineteen hundred and forty eight,
- 50:25Speaker 4: the Kaiser Family Foundation was founded, and this from popular
- 50:31Speaker 4: timelines dot Com. Nineteen forty eight establishment Kaiser Family Foundation
- 50:36Speaker 4: by Henry J. Kaiser in Oakland, California, where Kaiser Permanente's
- 50:41Speaker 4: headquarters were located. Funded with his inheritance and his personal wealth.
- 50:48Speaker 4: So the founder of the Kaiser Permanente Health System started
- 50:52Speaker 4: Kaiser Family Foundation. It's called a tax shelter. But I
- 51:00Speaker 4: just wanted to bring that back into the discussion just
- 51:02Speaker 4: because I want to respond to the keyboard warriors when
- 51:05Speaker 4: they hit at us. But that Pornell's Iron Law of
- 51:14Speaker 4: the bureaucracy, it applies just as much to healthcare as
- 51:20Speaker 4: it does any other bureaucracy. We have bureaucratic healthcare. And
- 51:31Speaker 4: so you please think about the if you missed yesterday's
- 51:35Speaker 4: program and we went through Pornell's Iron Law of the bureaucracy.
- 51:41Speaker 4: It basically says that there are two types of people
- 51:49Speaker 4: in a bureaucracy.
- 51:51Speaker 26: The people who are part of the operation who really
- 51:55Speaker 26: care about doing whatever the work is of the bureaucracy,
- 51:58Speaker 26: the doctors, the nurse is that really care about.
- 52:05Speaker 4: Healthcare. And then the ones who always wind up in charge,
- 52:09Speaker 4: who are the ones who are more interested in their
- 52:12Speaker 4: position within the bureaucracy, And many of those are doctors
- 52:16Speaker 4: and nurses, but rather than worry about the application of
- 52:30Speaker 4: medical care, they want to be part of the bureaucracy.
- 52:36Speaker 4: That's more important thing. But anyway, it's time for us
- 52:39Speaker 4: to go.
- 52:42Speaker 27: Because I'm coming until tomorrow at five Eastern song and
- 52:46Speaker 27: thanks for all the fish.
- 52:51Speaker 11: Much of neck and spinal pain is caused by the
- 52:53Speaker 11: compression of spinal nerves. According to doctor Jeff Fisher, an Irvine,
- 52:57Speaker 11: California based chiropractor with more than three years of experience,
- 53:01Speaker 11: this compression can stem from a chronic condition, acute injury,
- 53:05Speaker 11: or simply aging. Traction is the most effective way to relax, stretch,
- 53:09Speaker 11: and decompress the spine and surrounding muscles and ligaments of
- 53:12Speaker 11: the neck and back. Doctor Fisher explains his inventions, the
- 53:16Speaker 11: Fisher Traction Neck Device and Fisher Traction Low Back Device
- 53:20Speaker 11: safely separates bones to eliminate pain and restore function so
- 53:24Speaker 11: the body can heal naturally. The Fisher Traction devices are
- 53:27Speaker 11: designed to restore the natural curves of the neck and
- 53:30Speaker 11: back and gently induce hydration and motion into the spine
- 53:33Speaker 11: with the use of a release strap. The devices are
- 53:36Speaker 11: convenient and easy to use in the comfort of your
- 53:38Speaker 11: home and Doctor Fisher's series of YouTube videos provides helpful
- 53:41Speaker 11: videos and detailed instructions. For more information, visit Fishertraction dot
