- 0:48Speaker 1: ill libertarian and that's what he fights for. And everybody
- 0:52Speaker 1: in Kentucky knows that. Messy folks out there, you've been
- 0:56Speaker 1: putting him in office for years and years and years.
- 0:58Speaker 1: You know damn well everything about the man. You know
- 1:01Speaker 1: what you're getting, you know what you elected, and you
- 1:03Speaker 1: make a point every time you do it. You gonna
- 1:08Speaker 1: turn away from that. I don't know, I'm I'm just
- 1:14Speaker 1: I decide myself over the whole thing. Anyway. It's election

- 1:18Speaker 1: vote six six ams when the polls up. I'll get
- 1:20Speaker 1: some details on that in a minute coming up today.
- 1:23Speaker 1: Oh look right there at seven oh five, and do
- 1:25Speaker 1: my eyes deceive me? Joe Strecker Executi britition of the
- 1:28Speaker 1: fifty five Caarasey Morning Show came through again. Congressman Thomas
- 1:33Speaker 1: Massey coming up at seven oh five on the fifty
- 1:35Speaker 1: five Garasey Morning Show with an open opportunity for Ed.
- 1:39Speaker 1: Is it is it gil Rain as Donald Trump said
- 1:41Speaker 1: the other day, Joe, as you have it phonetically spelled,
- 1:43Speaker 1: or is it goll Ryane, which apparently is what it is.
- 1:49Speaker 1: I can't say that on the air, Joe. You can
- 1:52Speaker 1: call him what you want five one, two three talk
- 1:58Speaker 1: Pound five fifty on eighteen t phones. Equal time opportunity
- 2:01Speaker 1: for Ed Gallrain Gallrain Gil to call in. Thank you
- 2:08Speaker 1: Joe for that high comedy this morning. As I came
- 2:11Speaker 1: into fifty five care s some morning should see what
- 2:12Speaker 1: I run down seven to five. Congressman Thomas Massy. It
- 2:15Speaker 1: is Tuesday, Tom's Awastowski. We the People Convention Dot orgs
- 2:18Speaker 1: Tom's Awastowski. We will talk about the Medicaid scandal. Yeah,
- 2:21Speaker 1: right here in Ohio and apparently Ohio not suspending the
- 2:26Speaker 1: gas tax. I think going to the Wine had said
- 2:28Speaker 1: that although I know Trump is considering repealing or rather
- 2:31Speaker 1: suspending the federal gas tax, anything to try to give
- 2:34Speaker 1: us relief. You know, Joe Biden released fuel from the
- 2:37Speaker 1: Strategic Petroleum oil reserve didn't have much of an impact
- 2:41Speaker 1: if you recall when he did. That may have been
- 2:45Speaker 1: a strategic mistake, since it obviously was designed to deal
- 2:48Speaker 1: with well trying times and well, like a rainy day fund,
- 2:52Speaker 1: you don't spend it till you have a real problem
- 2:54Speaker 1: on your hands. You don't use it for political aims.
- 2:58Speaker 1: But we did anyway, Danil Davis Deep Dive, We're gonna
- 3:00Speaker 1: get the latest on Iran and things aren't really looking
- 3:02Speaker 1: good for Russia. I'm really anxious to talk to Daniel
- 3:05Speaker 1: Davis because well, of course he comes to the program
- 3:07Speaker 1: every Tuesday at eight thirty to talk about the matters
- 3:09Speaker 1: involving war. He is a retired lieutenant colonel. He's the
- 3:13Speaker 1: one that's been saying for years, well for since we
- 3:15Speaker 1: since since the war with the Iranians kicked off, the
- 3:20Speaker 1: Runians have a whole hell of a lot more missiles
- 3:23Speaker 1: and boats around than we've ever given him credit for.
- 3:26Speaker 1: And that's a real problem. Obviously he has been proven
- 3:28Speaker 1: accurate on that. More more reports coming out about the
- 3:31Speaker 1: Iranian stockpile of weapons and the fast boats keeping the
- 3:34Speaker 1: straight up Hormor moves closed. And I think the fact
- 3:35Speaker 1: that it's still closed. Is an illustration of perhaps what
- 3:39Speaker 1: power the Iranians still wheeled in spite of the fact
- 3:41Speaker 1: they have been emasculated and their military has suffered mightily
- 3:45Speaker 1: in the conflict. And oh well, if we're on pause again.
- 3:47Speaker 1: By the way, if you didn't get the memo, on again,
- 3:50Speaker 1: off again, on again, off again, it's a new day,
- 3:52Speaker 1: and so we're in pause mode with the war against
- 3:54Speaker 1: the Iranians. Already thought it was going to be large,
- 3:56Speaker 1: we were going to kick it off today. So for
- 3:58Speaker 1: those who predicted the bombs to be dropping, Bobby, you're
- 4:00Speaker 1: out there. Apparently not. We're still talking or something. So
- 4:07Speaker 1: what do we got going on? Kentucky polls six am
- 4:10Speaker 1: to six pm. Anyone aligned by six pm you will
- 4:13Speaker 1: still be able to cast your vote. So if you
- 4:15Speaker 1: show up late, just make sure you're there before six pm.
- 4:18Speaker 1: What do you need? You need a photo ID to
- 4:21Speaker 1: cast a ballot. Anyone of the following are AOK Kentucky
- 4:24Speaker 1: driver's license, Kentucky issued ID card, US Military ID card,
- 4:28Speaker 1: College ID card, Kentucky government ID, US passport, a US
- 4:31Speaker 1: passport card. You don't have a valid photo ID among
- 4:34Speaker 1: one of those that I just mentioned. You can still
- 4:36Speaker 1: cast a ballot in the election, but you've got additional
- 4:38Speaker 1: documents need to go up and show up with and
- 4:41Speaker 1: rectify the situation. Refer to the Kentucky Secretary State website
- 4:45Speaker 1: for all the specific details. I know my listening audience
- 4:48Speaker 1: knows everything. There is no about voting in the Commonwealth.
- 4:51Speaker 1: What do you got going on? Oh, there's a race.
- 4:53Speaker 1: You know that US Representative Thomas Massey is being challenged
- 4:56Speaker 1: by Ed Gallerin. Yeah, you knew that. So it's gotta
- 5:01Speaker 1: be a big much watch across this nation election because
- 5:03Speaker 1: Donald Trump is you know, what do you think about that?
- 5:09Speaker 1: At least in terms of what it's going to mean
- 5:12Speaker 1: with one if you know, depending on the outcome. Wall
- 5:17Speaker 1: Street Journal's William mcgern suggested President's intervention. If mister Massey prevails,
- 5:24Speaker 1: the victory would treat it as a sign of mister
- 5:26Speaker 1: Trump's waning influence over his own party. Pause and contemplate that,
- 5:31Speaker 1: because I'm not quite sure that it's gone. It would
- 5:33Speaker 1: be that broad my friends in northern Kentucky who have
- 5:36Speaker 1: repeatedly elected Thomas Massey over and over again, You're a
- 5:39Speaker 1: horse of a different cover color. You are unique, you
- 5:41Speaker 1: are independent, you are free thinking. I don't know that
- 5:46Speaker 1: your attitude is one that is held widely over the
- 5:49Speaker 1: general Republican party in this country. The fact that you
- 5:53Speaker 1: keep electing over and over again a libertarian minded guy,
- 5:56Speaker 1: doctor Know, or mister Know as he's referred to the
- 6:00Speaker 1: Ron Paul Junior as some people suggest, he is whatever
- 6:03Speaker 1: you know it, You've been doing it for years, and
- 6:07Speaker 1: he has had prior challengers. So what's changed within the
- 6:13Speaker 1: voting ranks of the northern Kentucky vote or the Kentucky
- 6:15Speaker 1: voters who are going to be voting in who have
- 6:17Speaker 1: an opportunity to vote for Massi or gaul ruin most
- 6:22Speaker 1: expensive House primary and US history. Now, the other suggestion
- 6:25Speaker 1: from mc garn is that if mister Massey is defeated,
- 6:27Speaker 1: it will be taken as a warning to all Republicans
- 6:29Speaker 1: that you mess with the president at your own peril.
- 6:31Speaker 1: I think that may be accurate, and I feel as
- 6:36Speaker 1: though many like me trust me. I hear from the
- 6:40Speaker 1: listening audience, and I most notably have a problem among
- 6:43Speaker 1: not all the time, but when I disagree with Trump
- 6:45Speaker 1: on literally anything, the always Trump crowd thinks that I've
- 6:49Speaker 1: turned into some kind of communist or something. Now I
- 6:53Speaker 1: am independent and free thinking of mine. You know, one
- 6:56Speaker 1: man does not represent the interest of Brian Thomas, and
- 6:58Speaker 1: Brian Thomas may have a different attitude or any an
- 7:00Speaker 1: issue depending on where Brian Thomas happens to be on it.
- 7:03Speaker 1: Which is the way I think my friends who are
- 7:05Speaker 1: voting for Thomas Massey or not as the case, maybe
- 7:07Speaker 1: they make up their own minds, they draw their own conclusions.
- 7:10Speaker 1: They are not to be swayed. So are you struggling
- 7:16Speaker 1: with defying Donald Trump? Is that something you're taking into
- 7:22Speaker 1: the polls today? I don't want to vote against what
- 7:26Speaker 1: Donald Trump wants because I wrote this morning on a
- 7:33Speaker 1: piece of paper. Who is ed Golrin? Do we know?
- 7:42Speaker 1: I checked out as campaign website page. It's really it's
- 7:46Speaker 1: it's light. There's not a whole lot there. Specifically, unleash
- 7:53Speaker 1: our economy, all right, and work with President and Republican
- 7:58Speaker 1: Party to cut taxes, reduce regulations, and stop the reckless
- 8:00Speaker 1: spending that has driven up inflation. Oh, reckless spending. Why
- 8:04Speaker 1: did Thomas Massey vote against one big, beautiful bill? He
- 8:07Speaker 1: set it over and over again. It is a debt bomb.
- 8:10Speaker 1: We are going to go underwater even further. He has
- 8:13Speaker 1: always been a deficit hawking. It's one of the reasons
- 8:15Speaker 1: why I love the guy so much. He stands up
- 8:17Speaker 1: and waves the giant flag. You guys are sinking us here,
- 8:21Speaker 1: spending us into oblivion. And you know what, there's some
- 8:24Speaker 1: great things in the One Big Beautiful Bill, but you
- 8:26Speaker 1: know what, I can't vote for it because it's going
- 8:28Speaker 1: to put us a couple of trillion dollars in additional debt.
- 8:30Speaker 1: Would someone do some spending offsets, perhaps do some cuts
- 8:33Speaker 1: elsewhere so we can get everything else that we all
- 8:36Speaker 1: agree that we want in the One Big Beautiful Bill.
- 8:38Speaker 1: Someone had to say it. At goy Wing's campaigning on
- 8:43Speaker 1: cutting taxes, reducing regulations, and they're stopping the reckless spending. Well,
- 8:48Speaker 1: so you get that with Massy Secure the border and
- 8:51Speaker 1: protect our nation number two on his list. Now someone
- 8:54Speaker 1: will say, well, Congress, someone mass he voted against security
- 8:57Speaker 1: the borderwall. I refer you to the prior comments that
- 8:59Speaker 1: just made about the One Big Beautiful Bill. It's not
- 9:02Speaker 1: because there was some provision in it that he was
- 9:04Speaker 1: against or a favor of. And if you asked Thomas
- 9:07Speaker 1: Massey whether he's favor of securing the border. I'm sure
- 9:09Speaker 1: that he would say yes, I am. However, I do
- 9:13Speaker 1: not believe that it takes going into debt another couple
- 9:16Speaker 1: of trillion dollars to secure the border. And I can
- 9:19Speaker 1: make the point that, look, Donald Trump gets elected in
- 9:21Speaker 1: the border secure flip a switch. Defend our gun rights.
- 9:27Speaker 1: Does anybody know anybody who's more of a defender of
- 9:31Speaker 1: the Second Amendment than Thomas Massey. I think it was
- 9:35Speaker 1: an I can ask him when he comes on at
- 9:38Speaker 1: seven point five. I think it's a rite of passage
- 9:40Speaker 1: in the massy household that you need to be able
- 9:42Speaker 1: to fully assemble and disassemble an AR fifteen rifle before
- 9:47Speaker 1: your sixteenth birthy or something like that. I mean he
- 9:49Speaker 1: posted a Christmas card with them all packing for example. Yeah,
- 9:53Speaker 1: big defender of the Second Amendment, you are in rock
- 9:55Speaker 1: solid hands if that's your issue. Protect the unborn Number
- 10:00Speaker 1: four on the list from ed memo Supreme Court decision
- 10:07Speaker 1: over ruling Roe versus Wade said it is not one
- 10:10Speaker 1: of the enumerted powers for Congress. It is one of
- 10:12Speaker 1: the state's powers. Every state can decide its own fate
- 10:15Speaker 1: with regard to abortion. So hate abortion, love abortion, anywhere
- 10:19Speaker 1: in between. It isn't a federal level issue. Ergo, a
- 10:23Speaker 1: member of the House of Representative isn't going to be
- 10:25Speaker 1: in a position to vote one way or another. So
- 10:28Speaker 1: we can scratch that one off a list and finally
- 10:30Speaker 1: end the woke agenda. I'll leave it to you to
- 10:32Speaker 1: decide whether you think Thomas Massey's in favor of the
- 10:35Speaker 1: woke agenda, and many suggest maybe ed himself kind of
- 10:39Speaker 1: back the whole DEI thing. See your various ads that
- 10:42Speaker 1: you've probably glossed over and gone into a state of sleep.
- 10:45Speaker 1: When you hear another one which will be coming up.
- 10:48Speaker 1: Honor Flight tri State today, please get over there right
- 10:51Speaker 1: now to CVEG. If you can't make that, of course
- 10:53Speaker 1: eight thirty roughly you want to be at CVEG to
- 10:55Speaker 1: welcome home the veterans. God bless each and every one
- 10:58Speaker 1: of them and everybody who's involved in flight. Of course,
- 11:00Speaker 1: as we fast approach Memorial Day, we'll be thinking about
- 11:03Speaker 1: those who paid the ultimate price and service of their country.
- 11:06Speaker 1: But today it's Honor Flight, celebrating those who are there
- 11:09Speaker 1: and can go to Washington, DC and see their memorials
- 11:12Speaker 1: and spend a great day. Try to get your kids
- 11:15Speaker 1: there to CVG tonight if you can. You want to
- 11:17Speaker 1: see some patriotism tonight tonight by sixteen right now, feel
- 11:21Speaker 1: free to give you a call. Love to hear from
- 11:22Speaker 1: anybody out there. I'd love to hear from the voters
- 11:24Speaker 1: in Kentucky what your position is relative to this massyall, Ryan,
- 11:28Speaker 1: I keep doing that because apparently Donald Trump doesn't know
- 11:30Speaker 1: how to pronounce his name. Don't go away. You're right
- 11:32Speaker 1: back in this edition of the Market by twenty on
- 11:39Speaker 1: an honor flight Tuesday.
- 11:42Speaker 2: So we're going to be.
- 11:43Speaker 1: Hearing from Summarine or Mike who sent me in Texa
- 11:46Speaker 1: this morning, reminding me that everyone is there lining up
- 11:48Speaker 1: and checking in eating some fine chow, says Mike, and
- 11:52Speaker 1: he said he would try to call in give us
- 11:54Speaker 1: an update on how things are going. Excuse me a
- 11:56Speaker 1: CVG this morning. So what do we got going on
- 12:00Speaker 1: than that today? Christopher Smithaman got in touch with me yesterday.
- 12:04Speaker 1: He said, please, if you're able to vote in the
- 12:07Speaker 1: City of Cincinnati and you're interested in getting city council
- 12:09Speaker 1: members involved in making very important decisions like the hiring
- 12:14Speaker 1: and firing of police chiefs and fire chiefs, today is
- 12:17Speaker 1: the day the petition gets launched. He'll be at Jim
- 12:20Speaker 1: and Jackson the River. One PM is when you can
- 12:22Speaker 1: see the former vice mayor of the City of Cincinnati
- 12:25Speaker 1: and you can sign the petition. I encourage you to
- 12:27Speaker 1: do that. I listen, if I could vote in the
- 12:28Speaker 1: City of CINCINNI I would definitely sign that petition. And
- 12:32Speaker 1: why not. I mean, all these important decisions left in
- 12:35Speaker 1: the hands of Sheryl Long, the city manager hasn't been
- 12:38Speaker 1: really great about making decisions and has put the City
- 12:40Speaker 1: of Cincinnati in a bit of apparel in terms of
- 12:42Speaker 1: liabilities concerned. Everyone fully expects former chief fire Chief Washington
- 12:47Speaker 1: to get a big, fat paycheck, and we fully expect
- 12:50Speaker 1: Police Chief Thiji. It's also similarly get one when her
- 12:53Speaker 1: lawsuit is filed and it has ultimately resolved. Yeah, these
- 12:56Speaker 1: decisions should be left in the hands of maybe more people,
- 13:00Speaker 1: which going back to my position in so far as
- 13:02Speaker 1: the war is concerned in Iran, Yeah, I think the
- 13:04Speaker 1: decision should be left in with more elected officials. That's
- 13:08Speaker 1: just me. Some are arguing that they sixty day period
- 13:10Speaker 1: is already over and so far as the War Powers
- 13:12Speaker 1: Resolution is concerned, they're teeing up more votes on that,
- 13:16Speaker 1: and it looks like more Republicans are lining up to
- 13:21Speaker 1: sign on to a war powers resolution limiting to some
- 13:24Speaker 1: extent the scope of the war there. So, House on
- 13:28Speaker 1: Thursday last week narrowly voted down a resolution that would
- 13:31Speaker 1: have directed Trump to remove US armed forces from the
- 13:33Speaker 1: hostilities against Iran. Tie vote yeah, squeaker on that one,
- 13:39Speaker 1: two twelve to two twelve, So it failed under the
- 13:41Speaker 1: chamber rules. Aforementioned represented a Massy along with Republican Brian Fitzpatrick.
- 13:47Speaker 1: A Pennsylvanian, Tom Barrett of Michigan opposed the our cross
- 13:52Speaker 1: theout to support the measure, so across the aisle. I
- 13:54Speaker 1: don't know that this is Republican or Democrat. The law
- 13:57Speaker 1: says what the law says, and we can argue amongst
- 13:59Speaker 1: ourselves whether it was required to be followed the Pesky law.
- 14:02Speaker 1: But here we are so over. The Senate motion to
- 14:06Speaker 1: discharge Warpowers resolution from the Foreign Relations Committee failed also
- 14:10Speaker 1: recently last Wednesday, forty nine to fifty. But they're team
- 14:13Speaker 1: up yet another one, and it looks like some more
- 14:15Speaker 1: Republicans are kind of suggesting they're going to be voting
- 14:18Speaker 1: for it. So now the argument is that the sixty
- 14:21Speaker 1: day clock under the War Powers Resolution nineteen seventy three
- 14:24Speaker 1: began ticking March second. That's when Trump notified Congress to
- 14:29Speaker 1: the use of force. Democrats and some Republicans are arguing
- 14:33Speaker 1: that that clock inspired May first. Some are arguing, no, no, no, no, no,
- 14:40Speaker 1: there was a pause on it when we entered into
- 14:42Speaker 1: a ceasefire agreement with the Iridians, not that it really
- 14:45Speaker 1: was a ceasefire, since missiles and shots have been traded
- 14:48Speaker 1: between each other. That stopped the clock on the War
- 14:51Speaker 1: Powers Resolution. So I don't necessarily know that that's the
- 14:54Speaker 1: case or not. But again, I don't think that's ever
- 14:56Speaker 1: been resolved as a legal matter. So next vote could
- 15:03Speaker 1: swing in Democrats' favor. Some are arguing, should any single
- 15:07Speaker 1: one of the several Republicans who voice concerned about the
- 15:09Speaker 1: need for Congress to authorize military action switch their vote?
- 15:14Speaker 1: H Senator Tim Kane, Democratic Virginia had this to say,
- 15:20Speaker 1: we know what our colleagues are hearing. We're starting to
- 15:22Speaker 1: hear doubt creep into their voices now. Earlier the week,
- 15:27Speaker 1: Republicans press Defense Secretary of Pete heggsat to explain the
- 15:30Speaker 1: administration's strategy. This in back to back House and Senate appropriations.
- 15:35Speaker 1: Hearing pointed out that several of the GOP senators suggested
- 15:39Speaker 1: Congress should play a larger role if military operations go
- 15:43Speaker 1: past the statutory limited of the War Powers Resolution. No,
- 15:46Speaker 1: it's paused to say some so it's in a state
- 15:50Speaker 1: of flux, without question. But again, so are the settlement
- 15:55Speaker 1: negotiates with Iradians. What the sleep last? I think that
- 16:00Speaker 1: today was the day the bombs are going to start
- 16:02Speaker 1: dropping again? And what would that do to the ticking clock?
- 16:05Speaker 1: Do you pick up where you left off? Or do
- 16:07Speaker 1: we start a new round of sixty day windows followed
- 16:09Speaker 1: by thirty day extensions under the War Powers Resolution. Again
- 16:13Speaker 1: a question that I can't answer, and I don't think
- 16:14Speaker 1: anybody's answered. Uncharted Territory, feel free to call five one, three, seven,

- 18:17Speaker 3: in some areas like Indiana, here's flat. I get it,
- 18:20Speaker 3: there's nothing to see, there's no it's not blocking anything.
- 18:24Speaker 3: Or you know, like going through Oklahoma to Panhandle of Texas.
- 18:28Speaker 1: Well, you know what I see, tom after listening to
- 18:32Speaker 1: the global warming green alarmist talk about not drilling in
- 18:36Speaker 1: some remote never gonna see it ever, a region of
- 18:40Speaker 1: Alaska where all the oil happens to be listen, I
- 18:43Speaker 1: gotta if every drive through Indiana, I gotta look at
- 18:45Speaker 1: that crap. You know what I'm seeing. I'm seeing bird
- 18:48Speaker 1: slaughter earths. I like birds. You know, In spite of
- 18:51Speaker 1: what I say about this green nonsense, he CO two's
- 18:54Speaker 1: killing us or whatever, I appreciate nature. I want to
- 18:57Speaker 1: live in an environment where there are birds, bountiful, plentiful birds.
- 19:00Speaker 1: I don't see him get slaughtered by a stupid windmill.
- 19:06Speaker 1: Go ahead, I'm.
- 19:07Speaker 3: Sorry, that's right, Bryan Thomas show. So feel free to
- 19:12Speaker 3: interject anytimes you feel like, yes, you do, that's fine.
- 19:17Speaker 3: So so, uh yeah, I mean I don't. I just didn't.
- 19:22Speaker 3: The part just struck me. We've covered this whole windmill thing,
- 19:25Speaker 3: but the part that struck me was just how it
- 19:26Speaker 3: blocks up the scene or you know, just yeah, they're there,
- 19:31Speaker 3: they are. They're hideous, stupid, kind of kind of impressive
- 19:34Speaker 3: when you drive next to them, you know, big tall things,
- 19:36Speaker 3: but yeah, they're just like just it's crazy and it
- 19:38Speaker 3: just doesn't do enough, I don't think. But whatever, there's
- 19:41Speaker 3: I guess the purpose to him somewhere. So but yeah,
- 19:44Speaker 3: you you couldn't, you couldn't pay people live out there.
- 19:47Speaker 3: That's just craziness and have no interest in it. And
- 19:50Speaker 3: then the switch here is real quick. Yet the whole
- 19:52Speaker 3: thing with with Thomas Massey, Uh, it's it's one of
- 19:56Speaker 3: those things that Trump's doing that I don't. I don't
- 19:57Speaker 3: see the point in it. I really don't. I mean,
- 20:00Speaker 3: you're talking about trying to remove a guy who's getting
- 20:02Speaker 3: what eighty some percent of the vote when he when
- 20:05Speaker 3: he gets elected, and then we're not talking about we're
- 20:08Speaker 3: not talking about someone who's on the verge of losing,
- 20:10Speaker 3: all right, and Trump just needs a tip the scale.
- 20:12Speaker 3: I mean, what a monumental effort that's going to.
- 20:14Speaker 4: Be thirty three Thomas Massey.
- 20:16Speaker 1: Thirty three for Republicans fighting amongst themselves.
- 20:21Speaker 3: Yeah, it just doesn't make That's the that's the part
- 20:24Speaker 3: that don all. This is one of the things I
- 20:25Speaker 3: don't like. I'd be willing to say, Hey, it's trust's
- 20:28Speaker 3: wrong here. He's just absolutely wrong doing it. You're trying,
- 20:31Speaker 3: and not only that, you're trying to get rid of
- 20:32Speaker 3: somebody who is doing exactly what you just read off
- 20:35Speaker 3: the other dudes tops in the other floors. There's something
- 20:41Speaker 3: he's already doing, right.
- 20:42Speaker 1: I feel like Ed's priority as well. You already got
- 20:44Speaker 1: that with congressom Massy demonstrated by his time in office
- 20:48Speaker 1: already over and over again.
- 20:49Speaker 3: Right, And it's not just on his website, he's actually
- 20:52Speaker 3: voted that way. Yeah, So and that's a good thing.
- 20:55Speaker 3: So yeah, it's it's crazy. So they get these primaries
- 20:58Speaker 3: that we were with hopefully we get the right Republicans
- 21:00Speaker 3: in there so that in November we can all relax
- 21:04Speaker 3: and vote for them and make sure that we don't
- 21:07Speaker 3: vote Democrats.
- 21:08Speaker 1: Have a great game, You too, Tom, A bit of
- 21:10Speaker 1: a stream of consciousness this morning for Tom, you can
- 21:12Speaker 1: call too. I always enjoy hearing from the listeners five
- 21:14Speaker 1: on three, seven four nine hundred two three talk. Yeah,
- 21:17Speaker 1: it's and so far it is a local story, the
- 21:20Speaker 1: gaul ryin in Massey race. I keep pronouncing Ed's name
- 21:23Speaker 1: that way because apparently Donald Trump got it wrong. The
- 21:25Speaker 1: other day. He got a new video out. I guess
- 21:29Speaker 1: his last shot at making fun of or otherwise criticizing
- 21:32Speaker 1: Representative Thomas Massey, who will be on the program. By
- 21:35Speaker 1: the way, at seven oh five, he only mentioned it's
- 21:42Speaker 1: like a thirty second video that was released on this
- 21:45Speaker 1: Trump devoted six seconds to gaul ryin any mispronounce his name.
- 21:55Speaker 1: We're in a fight against the worst congressman in the
- 21:58Speaker 1: history of our country. He said. His name is Thomas Massey,
- 22:01Speaker 1: He's from Kentucky. I hope you're going to put him
- 22:03Speaker 1: out of business tomorrow. He is so bad. Part of
- 22:05Speaker 1: the video he released card only about midway through the video.
- 22:08Speaker 1: I didn't get to see it, though I saw the
- 22:09Speaker 1: reporting on it. When dealing with the endorsement, he referred
- 22:12Speaker 1: to gall Rhine as a great guy, a great patriot.
- 22:20Speaker 1: That's it. He didn't talk at his priorities, he didn't
- 22:23Speaker 1: talk about his campaign pledges. Nothing really made it, and
- 22:25Speaker 1: he's been campaigning out of his basement. Only mention of
- 22:28Speaker 1: Gall Rhyand's name was mispronouncing it Gal Ryan. He got
- 22:32Speaker 1: it wrong, calling him Gil Rain. So maybe not intimately
- 22:37Speaker 1: familiar with each other, at least in so far as
- 22:39Speaker 1: what you would perceive from the advertising. By thirty five
- 22:42Speaker 1: ifty five kres DE talk station. Yes, I have a
- 22:44Speaker 1: stack as stupid. Prefer hearing from you either with talk
- 22:47Speaker 1: station by forty one iffty five cares De talk station,

- 22:58Speaker 1: Morning smith Van if you can get a chancel list,
- 23:00Speaker 1: and he had a very loud and unwavering message for
- 23:03Speaker 1: the black voters out of the generally speaking, and his
- 23:08Speaker 1: perception that it is extraordinarily insulting when folks like Chucky
- 23:11Speaker 1: Schumer start telling the black community that they're too stupid
- 23:15Speaker 1: to get a photo ID that's boiled down what he
- 23:18Speaker 1: had to say, but he did elaborate on that and
- 23:19Speaker 1: so many other issues related to the Democrat Party's treatment
- 23:22Speaker 1: of the Black community generally speaking. And good morning to Christopher.
- 23:27Speaker 1: Smithman had just sent me an email reminding me that
- 23:28Speaker 1: I was telling everyone they need to tell everybody about
- 23:30Speaker 1: Jim and Jacksonday, Christopher. I did it once already, I'll
- 23:33Speaker 1: do it throughout the morning one pm. Jim and Jackson
- 23:35Speaker 1: the River. The petition is out to get the council
- 23:39Speaker 1: members involved in hiring firing decisions. And you know who's
- 23:41Speaker 1: endorsed it, According to Christopher's text this morning, former Chief
- 23:45Speaker 1: Washington and Police CHIEFDD who will soon be teeing up
- 23:51Speaker 1: a lawsuit on our own. Good morning, Christopher, over to
- 23:54Speaker 1: the stack is stupid here, I thought this was kind
- 23:58Speaker 1: of funny. California dealing with what experts are describing as
- 24:02Speaker 1: the largest known outbreak of deadly mushroom poisonings in US history.
- 24:06Speaker 1: I don't know you can describe people ingesting intentionally mushrooms
- 24:09Speaker 1: as an outbreak, but forty seven confirmed cases of mushroom
- 24:13Speaker 1: poisoning four deaths, according to the California Department of Health,
- 24:17Speaker 1: stretching across twelve counties Northern California and Central Coast, which
- 24:22Speaker 1: they say far exceeds the typical statewide total of fewer
- 24:24Speaker 1: than five cases annually. Most illnesses linked with amatoxin containing mushrooms,
- 24:32Speaker 1: specifically death caps and Western destroying angels, both of these,
- 24:40Speaker 1: described as highly toxic species, closely resemble I believe it's
- 24:44Speaker 1: psilocybin mushrooms. So oh, look, it's a psilocybin mushroom. Nope, no,
- 24:50Speaker 1: it wasn't idiots doing it, did you joke? That's exactly
- 24:56Speaker 1: what I was thinking. British court sentence a truck driver
- 25:01Speaker 1: to prison excusually for smuggling seven million pounds that will
- 25:07Speaker 1: be British pounds translated to nine point four million dollars
- 25:11Speaker 1: worth of cocaine in a shipment of underwear and clothing
- 25:15Speaker 1: from Kim Kardashian's shapewear brand Skims. Yeah. I know, we
- 25:22Speaker 1: live in a world where Kim Kardashian, based upon literally nothing,
- 25:25Speaker 1: can make millions and millions of dollars selling underwear. Never
- 25:32Speaker 1: underestimate the well gullibility of the American people. National Crime Agency,
- 25:36Speaker 1: said jakub Yan Kunkle, forty years old, driving a truck
- 25:40Speaker 1: carrying twenty eight pounds of these skims underwear from the Netherlands.
- 25:44Speaker 1: He was stopped by border officials where they say Kunkle
- 25:48Speaker 1: had stopped on the way to collect one hundred and
- 25:51Speaker 1: ninety eight pounds of cocaine, and that the truck had
- 25:54Speaker 1: been specially adapted so that he could hide the drugs
- 25:56Speaker 1: wrapped in one kilogram packages right there in the truck's
- 26:00Speaker 1: back doors. Agency said the shipment continued was legitimate. Neither
- 26:05Speaker 1: the export nor the importer were connected with the smuggled load,
- 26:08Speaker 1: so you can't blame Kim Kardashian for this one. Conco
- 26:11Speaker 1: said he agreed to transport the drug for a payment
- 26:14Speaker 1: of two hundred and forty three dollars very specific amount.
- 26:18Speaker 1: It was forty five hundred euros. He got thirteen and
- 26:21Speaker 1: a half years in prison for drug smuggling. Congratulations. No
- 26:25Speaker 1: word on what happened to the balance of the Kim
- 26:27Speaker 1: Kardashian underwear. Just shy of five forty five here fifty
- 26:31Speaker 1: five krsee the talk stations care and see the talk station.
- 26:38Speaker 1: It is five nine fifty five Krcit the talk station.
- 26:41Speaker 1: Election day in the Commonwealth of Kentucky. I know no
- 26:45Speaker 1: one knows that Congressman Thomas Massey during the program at
- 26:50Speaker 1: seven o five. Can't wait to have him on the show.
- 26:54Speaker 1: And I hope it's not the last time. Why would
- 26:57Speaker 1: it be right? The election is not until now. Marion County, Arkansas,
- 27:01Speaker 1: where we go for the stack of stupid, We have
- 27:03Speaker 1: a twenty year old Aaron Keith Binem arrested on charges
- 27:07Speaker 1: of first degree terroristic threatening and harassing communications. The press
- 27:11Speaker 1: release from the Marion County Sheriff's office say they arrested
- 27:13Speaker 1: him after an investigation into threats made online. Specifically, the
- 27:19Speaker 1: FBI National Threat Operations Center got an electronic tip saying
- 27:24Speaker 1: an online multiplayer game player had threatened a mass shooting
- 27:30Speaker 1: at his local Walmart if the country were to be
- 27:34Speaker 1: locked out again due to the hantavirus. You moron, that's
- 27:39Speaker 1: very specific, is Amy Acton like in control of Arkansas Joe?
- 27:45Speaker 1: I means he have an actual concern over getting locked
- 27:47Speaker 1: down again anyway. Tipster provided the player's user name, along
- 27:53Speaker 1: with in game recording of these specific threats. A couple
- 27:56Speaker 1: days later, the subpoenaed the game company to get the inform,
- 28:00Speaker 1: identifying this Bynum guy as the owner of the account.
- 28:03Speaker 1: Investors with the Marion County Sheriff's Office served as search
- 28:05Speaker 1: warrant at Bynam's home and when processing the scene, they
- 28:09Speaker 1: seized the computer and computer accessories Bidam taken them to
- 28:11Speaker 1: custody without insign taking to Marion County Detention Center. Booked,
- 28:15Speaker 1: processed just Drecker. What do you think his bond was?
- 28:20Speaker 1: Tree fitty No. Twenty five hundred dollars bond, Clearly not
- 28:23Speaker 1: in Hamilton County in front of Judge Silverstein when he
- 28:25Speaker 1: would have been left, probably gotten a cookie and a
- 28:27Speaker 1: glass of juice and sent on his way without anything.
- 28:30Speaker 1: High school teacher Wisconsin resigned after creating inappropriate artificial intelligence
- 28:35Speaker 1: images of other school district staff members idiots doing idiot things.
- 28:40Speaker 1: Because there it is Amen Joseph. Documents from the Eaclai
- 28:43Speaker 1: Area School District board meeting on Monday identified the teacher
- 28:45Speaker 1: as Benjamin Gilbert, a special education teacher at North High School.
- 28:51Speaker 1: May seven, North High School sent families a message saying
- 28:54Speaker 1: that it received a report from a staff member had
- 28:57Speaker 1: that a staff member had generated inappropriate AI images about
- 29:00Speaker 1: school staff members on a personal computer. Investigation said no
- 29:05Speaker 1: student images were involved. Thankfully. A letter to families was
- 29:09Speaker 1: sent staff member was placed on unpaid administrative leave later resign.
- 29:13Speaker 1: You know, it's interesting they don't say They just say inappropriate.
- 29:16Speaker 1: We don't get any specific description as to what they
- 29:18Speaker 1: mean by inappropriate. Just use your own imagination on that one.
- 29:23Speaker 1: Perhaps Joseph Plant City, Florida, where we are for this one.
- 29:29Speaker 1: Twenty six year old father I know charge after deputies
- 29:32Speaker 1: found him allegedly passed out on the front seat of
- 29:34Speaker 1: his truck while his young son was in the back.
- 29:38Speaker 1: Shell gas station was the place. May fourteenth and Plant
- 29:40Speaker 1: City calls received about a person down Hillsborough Coutti. Sheriff's
- 29:45Speaker 1: Office said they found Patrick Vocalty of Voltely, Thank You,
- 29:50Speaker 1: passed out in the driver's seat of the park truck.
- 29:53Speaker 1: His five year old son in the back could be
- 29:54Speaker 1: heard telling deputies he's just sleeping. He does it all
- 30:00Speaker 1: the time. Body camera video shows the deputies take a
- 30:03Speaker 1: gun from Vautley before waking him up. Another gun found
- 30:06Speaker 1: in his pocket while he was being detained. Sheriff's office
- 30:11Speaker 1: said Voltely refused to perform a field sobriety test, but
- 30:14Speaker 1: did provide a breath sample. More than twice the blood
- 30:17Speaker 1: alcohol legal limit up point zero eight. Chad Kronister, speaking
- 30:24Speaker 1: of local news, This reckless decision could have ended in tragedy.
- 30:27Speaker 1: Driving under the influence is dangerous enough, but doing so
- 30:29Speaker 1: with a chot in the vehicle while armed shows a
- 30:32Speaker 1: complete disregard for the safety of others. Thankfully, the deputies
- 30:35Speaker 1: intervened before anyone was seriously hurt. Yeah, that's on the
- 30:37Speaker 1: heels of the story from the other day where a
- 30:39Speaker 1: kid found a handgun underneath his dad's bad and shot
- 30:43Speaker 1: his brother. Let's try to take better care where we
- 30:46Speaker 1: put our firearms. What I see here. Coohutah, Georgia is
- 30:55Speaker 1: without a mayor. The mayor resigned amid controversy over the
- 30:59Speaker 1: firing of the town's entire police department. They say after
- 31:03Speaker 1: weeks of controversy surrounded the Coohoutah Police Department in the
- 31:06Speaker 1: former town clerk, Coohutah Mayor Rob Shinick submitted his resignation
- 31:10Speaker 1: to the town council and January, elected officials fired at
- 31:13Speaker 1: town clerk Pam Shinnick, the former mayor's wife, after employees
- 31:18Speaker 1: accused her of creating a hostile work environment. Former complaint
- 31:21Speaker 1: alleged that Pam maintain access to sensator Dave and payroll systems.
- 31:25Speaker 1: After her termination, police department submitted a letter about those concerns.
- 31:30Speaker 1: Shortly after that, and after the letter was sent, the
- 31:32Speaker 1: city attorney said the situation between the town and the
- 31:34Speaker 1: police force was mediated. A week later, though, Ron Shinick
- 31:39Speaker 1: terminated the entire police department department and that's when the
- 31:43Speaker 1: Whitefield County Sheriff took over. During a meeting on May nine,
- 31:47Speaker 1: town council voted to reinstate the town's police department and
- 31:50Speaker 1: put some restrictions in place. Council announced that the mayor
- 31:54Speaker 1: had left the meeting and would not return. Three days
- 31:59Speaker 1: after the town council voted to reinstate the entire police department,
- 32:01Speaker 1: council members held a public meeting to hear residents concerns
- 32:04Speaker 1: about Rob at Shinick and the future of the mayor's office.
- 32:08Speaker 1: Rob Shinick and the vice mayor did not attend the meeting,
- 32:11Speaker 1: and a couple days later, Rob Shinick resigned as the mayor.
- 32:15Speaker 1: Town council expected a hold emergency meeting as a consequence. Huh, CJ.
- 32:20Speaker 1: I just looked up, saw you're on the phone. I'm
- 32:22Speaker 1: more than happy to take your call, sadly, Harry Eyeball
- 32:25Speaker 1: from Joe Strecker. If I go over, it's already five
- 32:27Speaker 1: fifty five coming up ten, six oh five the fifty
- 32:29Speaker 1: five KRCD Talks station. The polls are open in the
- 32:34Speaker 1: Commonwealth of Kentucky. It is time to vote. You got

- 32:39Speaker 1: to vote, you haven't voted yet. You'll still be allowed
- 32:40Speaker 1: to vote, according to the Kentucky officials. So you got
- 32:44Speaker 1: quite a bit to do. It's not just the Massy
- 32:46Speaker 1: gall Rhine race. Since Donald Trump didn't pronounce it correctly,
- 32:50Speaker 1: I'm kind of stumbling over that every time to say
- 32:52Speaker 1: his name this morning anyway, five one, three, seven, four,
- 32:55Speaker 1: nine fifty five, eight hundred and two three talks speaking
- 32:57Speaker 1: of Congressman Thomas Massey. Guess who's going to be on
- 32:59Speaker 1: the program in one hour, Yes, Congressman Thomas Massey. Tom's
- 33:03Speaker 1: Awastowski followed Congressman Messi at seven thirty wee the People
- 33:06Speaker 1: Convention dot orgs. Tom talking about the Medicaid scandal here
- 33:09Speaker 1: in Ohio and Ohio not suspending the gasoline tax. Daniel
- 33:12Speaker 1: Davis deep dive, We're on again, Off again, and this
- 33:15Speaker 1: morning we wake up, we are off again. Donald Trump
- 33:18Speaker 1: says he's pausing the bomb dropping, which was scheduled to
- 33:21Speaker 1: begin today. According to his own words, a lot of
- 33:24Speaker 1: people were suggesting that, and it's not gonna happen today.
- 33:27Speaker 1: So we'll talk about the details of that a little bit.
- 33:29Speaker 1: I promised CJ i'd take his call. He was kind
- 33:30Speaker 1: enough to hold over the brake. CJ. Welcome to the
- 33:32Speaker 1: Morning Show, and a happy Tuesday to you.
- 33:35Speaker 5: Happy Tuesday, and good morning to you. You know yesterday
- 33:38Speaker 5: and unfortunately, my daughter lives about a block block and
- 33:42Speaker 5: a half from where that shooting happened.
- 33:43Speaker 2: Yeah, oh yeah, no, and so she wasn't there.
- 33:48Speaker 5: But you know, it's one of those things that make
- 33:50Speaker 5: you kind of wake up a little bit about what's
- 33:53Speaker 5: going on in life.
- 33:54Speaker 1: Hey, listen, you're talking to a guy whose daughter got
- 33:57Speaker 1: held up at gunpoint twice at Ohio State University when
- 34:01Speaker 1: she was there. Yep, you tell me about it.
- 34:03Speaker 5: I was just gonna say, there's down by UC there's
- 34:06Speaker 5: a mural that says Cincinnati is the San Diego of
- 34:09Speaker 5: the Midwest. And the first time I saw that, I laughed,
- 34:13Speaker 5: and then I started thinking about it. I'm like, you
- 34:15Speaker 5: know what, outside of the mountains in the weather, it's
- 34:18Speaker 5: not that far off.
- 34:19Speaker 6: It's very close.
- 34:20Speaker 5: And unfortunately, one of the areas where it's super close
- 34:23Speaker 5: is how the city deals with their police officers. San
- 34:26Speaker 5: Diego for years has had an issue where they way
- 34:31Speaker 5: under pay and treat their officers, where they all come in,
- 34:35Speaker 5: get training and go off to the suburbs and get
- 34:37Speaker 5: out of that city because they get handled like garbage.
- 34:40Speaker 6: It's always their fault.
- 34:41Speaker 5: Everything belongs to the police, and YadA, YadA, YadA, and
- 34:46Speaker 5: they way underfund and then we come in after twenty
- 34:49Speaker 5: twenty and we really underfund the police, and next thing
- 34:53Speaker 5: you know, the city is completely understaffed in police officers.
- 34:57Speaker 6: And they can't you know, they can't.
- 34:59Speaker 5: You can't blame them because they all they do for
- 35:02Speaker 5: twelve hours is run from issue to issue. And yesterday
- 35:06Speaker 5: that mom called the police three hours before they even
- 35:12Speaker 5: got to her house, three hours because they were eight
- 35:17Speaker 5: officers short yesterday morning. This whole thing did not have
- 35:22Speaker 5: to happen because unfortunately, liberal politicians are far more worried
- 35:27Speaker 5: about making sure that we have quote unquote social workers
- 35:30Speaker 5: running around the city to fix issues rather than the
- 35:33Speaker 5: people who could have solved the issue yesterday, because that
- 35:36Speaker 5: you know, God loves social workers, but not one of
- 35:39Speaker 5: them carries a gun. And when you've got these guys
- 35:41Speaker 5: running around with weapons who are suicidal and on a mission,
- 35:46Speaker 5: this is exactly the consequences of underfunded police and underfunded
- 35:51Speaker 5: security in society.
- 35:54Speaker 6: This is completely owned.
- 35:56Speaker 5: By the Democrats. From a policy standpoint, the shooters own themselves,
- 36:02Speaker 5: but from a policy standpoint, this is one on the Democrats.
- 36:07Speaker 1: Well, San Diego, I share your perception of that. Of course.
- 36:10Speaker 1: You know, if you look at political parties, who's the
- 36:13Speaker 1: party that hates the police, who thinks they're all inherently racist?
- 36:17Speaker 1: And then we need to rethink policing and put social
- 36:20Speaker 1: workers out in the field as opposed to armed police
- 36:22Speaker 1: officers when dealing with violent individuals. Yeah, the Democrats, Yeah,
- 36:27Speaker 1: no question about it. And you know, I find it
- 36:29Speaker 1: really hard to believe, my friend. I've said it before,
- 36:31Speaker 1: and I just think that more and more this is
- 36:32Speaker 1: becoming maybe one of those things you and I will
- 36:35Speaker 1: look back on. Pray to God, you have five years
- 36:37Speaker 1: from now or whatever, and do you remember the period
- 36:39Speaker 1: of time when everybody was against the police and we
- 36:41Speaker 1: got rid of the police officers and all hell broke loose. Yeah,
- 36:45Speaker 1: where everybody's kind of waking up to that. But I
- 36:46Speaker 1: find it really impossible to believe that, you know, my
- 36:48Speaker 1: my friends in people of color, in various communities, you
- 36:52Speaker 1: know the communities. I find it hard to believe that
- 36:54Speaker 1: they hate the police themselves. I mean, if your neighborhood
- 36:57Speaker 1: is where most of the crime is occurring, don't you
- 36:59Speaker 1: want to the police to be there. Isn't that just
- 37:03Speaker 1: logical and reasonable? And if you don't, why articulate a
- 37:07Speaker 1: reason why you don't want law enforcement around to get
- 37:10Speaker 1: the bad guys out of your neighborhood. It just doesn't
- 37:13Speaker 1: make any sense. So you know, we're being sold, I
- 37:15Speaker 1: believe a bill of goods brought to you by the leftist.
- 37:17Speaker 1: They're really just hell bent on dividing us all every
- 37:21Speaker 1: single way, every single place. And you know, they've I
- 37:25Speaker 1: think succeeded least some degree in dividing us all over
- 37:28Speaker 1: the need of the police department and whether or not
- 37:30Speaker 1: they're all inherently racist or bad or evil people. Listen,
- 37:34Speaker 1: I like the police. Some of them are bad, right,
- 37:37Speaker 1: It's like members of the Somali community. You can criticize
- 37:40Speaker 1: thieves within the Somali community without being labeled or racist
- 37:43Speaker 1: because you're talking about a criminal element. Wow, appreciate that.
- 37:49Speaker 1: Brad's on the line. Hey, Brad, thanks for calling this morning.
- 37:51Speaker 1: Happy Tuesday to you.
- 37:53Speaker 7: Hey, good morning, Brian, kudos. Hey, I wanted the response
- 37:57Speaker 7: to the dan terroll er the other day I was
- 38:00Speaker 7: out of town responding. So on the data centers, I'm
- 38:03Speaker 7: the senior project manager at sixteen years worked at a
- 38:07Speaker 7: lot of data centers across the United States, a lot
- 38:10Speaker 7: of blue state. At that time when these were baling
- 38:15Speaker 7: being built, there wasn't any resistance from the left whatsoever.
- 38:21Speaker 7: Stretching back to Brown, Claremont Adam, Sciota Counties, the response
- 38:27Speaker 7: and the resistance to these data centers is mainly groups
- 38:31Speaker 7: of petition families. They're also funding themselves or getting support
- 38:37Speaker 7: through the communities. I'm well aware of what data centers
- 38:42Speaker 7: can do to a community as far as electricity and water.
- 38:47Speaker 7: So there are their drawbacks to this for building these
- 38:53Speaker 7: data centers. The comments that Dan made were somewhat white
- 38:57Speaker 7: right and more than likely that Democratic part evilf is
- 39:02Speaker 7: going to use this as a political statement.
- 39:04Speaker 4: Oh yes, However, there's a lot.
- 39:07Speaker 7: Of Republicans in the state House that are backing the
- 39:10Speaker 7: data centers, So that was that's my chance.
- 39:15Speaker 1: But how would that be a Republican Democrat issue. I mean,
- 39:19Speaker 1: here's here's what I said. Now, if you talk about
- 39:21Speaker 1: energy demands, and I understand people's reluctance have a data
- 39:23Speaker 1: center in their neighborhood because of course the energy demands
- 39:26Speaker 1: we're all paying through the nose and the bills just
- 39:28Speaker 1: keep going up. So yeah, but that is a problem
- 39:30Speaker 1: that can be overcome by argument about small modular reactors
- 39:34Speaker 1: or data centers being obligated to bring their power with them.
- 39:37Speaker 1: If we just grease the skids of the regulatory environment
- 39:40Speaker 1: that we have in onerous as it is, they could
- 39:42Speaker 1: probably accomplish that. So if you can solve the energy challenge,
- 39:45Speaker 1: what challenges remain, right, why would you be against it?
- 39:50Speaker 1: Some say because it's going to it's going to kill jobs.
- 39:52Speaker 1: There's a great Wall Street Journal article just in today's paper.
- 39:55Speaker 1: I just pulled it up because you mentioned this. The
- 39:56Speaker 1: American rebellion against AI is gaining steam. The fast growing
- 40:00Speaker 1: industry has faster growing critics. And the reasons why people
- 40:03Speaker 1: are critical of AI is because they think their jobs
- 40:06Speaker 1: are going to be lost. But whatever the reasons are
- 40:08Speaker 1: moving away from energy, my view is these data centers
- 40:13Speaker 1: are going to happen. It is out of our control.
- 40:17Speaker 1: And if we as Americans generally speaking, don't embrace it
- 40:20Speaker 1: and go after it and become the leader in it,
- 40:22Speaker 1: guess who's gonna be the Chinese Communist Party and who
- 40:27Speaker 1: going back to maybe being manipulated by outside forces? Bred
- 40:30Speaker 1: who do you think maybe ginning up resistance to AI?
- 40:33Speaker 1: Do you think it's in the CCP's interest to do
- 40:35Speaker 1: that in our media and in social functions and in
- 40:39Speaker 1: tweets and all the other things that go out into
- 40:41Speaker 1: the world. Yeah, they're all over that. And they're constantly
- 40:45Speaker 1: dividing us along the lines I mentioned earlier, one more
- 40:48Speaker 1: area of division AI, and if we don't dominate, they
- 40:51Speaker 1: will right.
- 40:54Speaker 8: Somewhat.
- 40:55Speaker 7: Also, the data centers have multiple use their store data.
- 40:59Speaker 7: Of course, years ago that was the primary use of
- 41:03Speaker 7: the data center, but they do far more than that now.
- 41:07Speaker 7: And again the reason that people are alarmed this is
- 41:10Speaker 7: mainly a lot majority agricultural land that's being taken up
- 41:15Speaker 7: and underground offers of water which are used at sometimes
- 41:21Speaker 7: or again agricultural and other industries within the counties.
- 41:25Speaker 1: Yeah, but as it's been pointed out time and time again,
- 41:28Speaker 1: the artificial intelligence centers don't eat the water. They just
- 41:32Speaker 1: cool it out and put it back into the world,
- 41:35Speaker 1: unlike a farmer who waters crops with it. So the
- 41:37Speaker 1: water is being used by pouring it into the ground.
- 41:40Speaker 1: So there's a difference there too.
- 41:43Speaker 7: Yes, Brian, they do use the water. However, it's treated
- 41:46Speaker 7: because it's gone through chilling equipment HVAC equipment. These data
- 41:52Speaker 7: centers carry a three time redundancy for cooling because it
- 41:55Speaker 7: simply costs too much to shut them down when they
- 41:58Speaker 7: can't cool with the servers in the equipment.
- 42:01Speaker 6: So when they.
- 42:01Speaker 7: Treat this water and put it back into where in
- 42:04Speaker 7: the ponds are back into aquafer or even in the rythms,
- 42:09Speaker 7: there is a chemical residence.
- 42:11Speaker 1: That's what. And that's also okay, Brad, You're gonna have
- 42:13Speaker 1: to explain to me, because I've never heard anyone say
- 42:15Speaker 1: the water is treated, you know, like fracking, They you know,
- 42:18Speaker 1: put things in the water. I get that, but how
- 42:20Speaker 1: does an artificial intelligence center. Why would an artificial intelligence
- 42:23Speaker 1: center have to treat water if it's just running it through,
- 42:25Speaker 1: you know, piping to cool down the facility.
- 42:30Speaker 7: Well, it's the massive tonnage of cooling equipment, water chillers
- 42:34Speaker 7: with glack hall, you also overhead chilling equipment with cooling fans.
- 42:40Speaker 7: All that the water has to be treated to maintain
- 42:43Speaker 7: the chilling and the HVAC equipment.
- 42:45Speaker 1: Yeah, maybe there's somebody in the HVAC industry can can
- 42:48Speaker 1: explain that to me, because I don't understand, excuse me,
- 42:51Speaker 1: how the water needs to be intermingled with anything. I mean,
- 42:54Speaker 1: I have an understanding of refrigeration systems, having done some
- 42:56Speaker 1: litigation with some Anheider semonia stuff. So the Anidi simonia
- 43:00Speaker 1: kept in piping. It is not mixed with anything else,
- 43:02Speaker 1: which is my perception of how the water is. But
- 43:04Speaker 1: then again, I am not an expert in artificial intelligence
- 43:08Speaker 1: data center cooling methodology. So you're the first person that's
- 43:10Speaker 1: brought that to my attention. Brad. I didn't think that
- 43:12Speaker 1: was a problem. I hear you, I hear you. But
- 43:15Speaker 1: this growing division about artificial intelligence I think is fueled
- 43:18Speaker 1: at least in part by some of nefarious actors out
- 43:21Speaker 1: of the world ginning up opposition so they can end
- 43:24Speaker 1: up dominating. It's a plausible theory. Anyway, appreciate Brad. Jay's
- 43:27Speaker 1: on the phone, Jay go, I have to hang on.
- 43:28Speaker 1: I'm out of time at six sixteen. Right now, it's
- 43:30Speaker 1: time for you to mention cross country mortgage, specifically Suzette Low.
- 43:34Speaker 1: You see the talk station if you about KROSD talk station,
- 43:39Speaker 1: Happy Tuesday. Before I get to Jay, real quick here
- 43:42Speaker 1: the follow up. In the last call, I just did
- 43:43Speaker 1: a quick search since I was completely uninformed, but I
- 43:46Speaker 1: was partially right. They mentioned the Pollution and Data Center.
- 43:49Speaker 1: Water discharge could include biosides, which are chemicals that used
- 43:52Speaker 1: to prevent bacteria, mold, and algae growing inside cooling towers,
- 43:56Speaker 1: corrosion inhibitors which they add to protect the internal pipes,
- 44:00Speaker 1: and heavy metals which are trace metals not yeah, I
- 44:02Speaker 1: expose not in high concentration that degrade from the facility component.
- 44:07Speaker 1: So if you have what I perceive it to be,
- 44:09Speaker 1: a closed loop cooling system, which is how the industry
- 44:12Speaker 1: is mitigating the use of water. They recycle water instead
- 44:15Speaker 1: of evaporating it, which of course doesn't use any of
- 44:18Speaker 1: the water in order to get cool You get the
- 44:20Speaker 1: benefit of cooling when the water goes back out, apparently
- 44:23Speaker 1: with a little bit of those heavy metals from the piping.
- 44:25Speaker 1: They also have direct chip immersion cooling, which is hardware
- 44:29Speaker 1: cooling techniques that rely less on evaporative water system, which
- 44:33Speaker 1: I think is the problem. The evaporative water system is
- 44:35Speaker 1: using the water. And of course there's just plane or
- 44:38Speaker 1: traditional air cooling which can be used well, which doesn't
- 44:41Speaker 1: use any water whatsoever. So there are industry responses to
- 44:45Speaker 1: the water demands much in the same way there could
- 44:48Speaker 1: be a solution to the power demands. So moving away,
- 44:52Speaker 1: assuming we can get both of those problems solved. Does
- 44:54Speaker 1: anybody have a problem with AI? Do you still want
- 44:57Speaker 1: it in your neighborhood? It generates massive tax revenue for
- 45:00Speaker 1: your all your teachers, union schools. Jay, thank you for holding.
- 45:03Speaker 1: Welcome to the program, Sir, Hey, good.
- 45:06Speaker 9: Morning, Brian, listening from with the our iHeart app and
- 45:10Speaker 9: Mississippi where the gas price is three dollars and eighty
- 45:13Speaker 9: three cents.
- 45:14Speaker 1: Oh, that's awesome one of the.
- 45:16Speaker 4: Oh hey I drove.
- 45:18Speaker 9: I drove from Ohio, and every one of these southern
- 45:21Speaker 9: states has lower gas than Ohio.
- 45:24Speaker 1: You think it has something to do with the proximity
- 45:26Speaker 1: to the refining facilities that are located in some of
- 45:29Speaker 1: our southern states.
- 45:31Speaker 9: I think it has more to do with the freedom
- 45:33Speaker 9: that is in our southern states and lack of rhinos
- 45:36Speaker 9: that we grow.
- 45:38Speaker 4: As I mentioned before, we do two things really well.
- 45:40Speaker 9: We grow corner and rhinos in Ohio and we seem
- 45:43Speaker 9: to love both. But speaking to my favorite rhino, Governor DeWine,
- 45:48Speaker 9: who says that we can't possibly cut this gas tax,
- 45:52Speaker 9: quick reminder, he was in office for about ten minutes
- 45:54Speaker 9: whenever he put a ten.
- 45:55Speaker 4: Cent gas tax.
- 45:56Speaker 9: I think it was his first legislative action after he
- 45:59Speaker 9: got elected in his first term. And he's also sitting
- 46:03Speaker 9: on a four billion dollar rainy day fund that has
- 46:06Speaker 9: been funded by our budget surplus. That means more tax
- 46:10Speaker 9: is taken in than what they needed, which is legalized
- 46:14Speaker 9: theft in the terms as defined by Calvin Coolidge. That
- 46:17Speaker 9: I agree with the purpose of the rainy day fund.
- 46:20Speaker 9: I just did a little bit of research, was that
- 46:22Speaker 9: it is supposed to be there during times.
- 46:24Speaker 4: Of fiscal hardship.
- 46:27Speaker 9: But I think that what it means is fiscal hardship
- 46:29Speaker 9: for the state of Ohio, for the team, for the
- 46:31Speaker 9: folks up in Columbus. Our lords and masters, not for us,
- 46:35Speaker 9: because they could they could use that to to fund
- 46:41Speaker 9: roads and bridges and take the burden off of us.
- 46:44Speaker 4: The other thing that's interesting.
- 46:45Speaker 9: Is Governor DeWine doesn't have the ability to set pass policy.
- 46:48Speaker 4: That that is, he could veto it, but we could
- 46:51Speaker 4: also override his veto.
- 46:52Speaker 9: Like the last time, little jerk Want during COVID wanted
- 46:55Speaker 9: to have emergency authorization powers extended. So I would encourage everybody,
- 47:00Speaker 9: call your representative, call your state senator, tell them to
- 47:05Speaker 9: get busy and put the legislation forward and force the
- 47:09Speaker 9: Wine to veto it. But this is kind of like
- 47:11Speaker 9: John Thune in the Senate.
- 47:13Speaker 4: With the Save Acts.
- 47:14Speaker 9: Let's at least try can at least do their job
- 47:17Speaker 9: and try to suspend the gas tax or we're just
- 47:19Speaker 9: going to say, well the governor is going to veto it,
- 47:21Speaker 9: so I.
- 47:23Speaker 4: Guess I won't do my job today.
- 47:26Speaker 9: Yeah, yeah, So whatever you do, don't We got to
- 47:31Speaker 9: stop voting rhinos. And again, I sometimes I'm hard on
- 47:34Speaker 9: Central Committee.
- 47:36Speaker 4: This is their boy.
- 47:37Speaker 9: The Wine is their guy, and was so was Casic,
- 47:41Speaker 9: and so is all the rest of these rhinos that
- 47:44Speaker 9: they trot out in front of us.
- 47:45Speaker 4: So don't vote Rhinos, don't vote Democrat.
- 47:47Speaker 1: Have a good day, brit You do the same, Jay,
- 47:49Speaker 1: always going to hear from you and vote Congress from Massey. Yeah,
- 47:52Speaker 1: he is a thorn in the side of rhinos. One
- 47:55Speaker 1: of his biggest problems is government overspending. It's one of
- 47:57Speaker 1: the reasons he won't vote for things that you and
- 47:59Speaker 1: I think maybe you should be voted for. No, the
- 48:01Speaker 1: price tag is too high. That is a huge thorn
- 48:04Speaker 1: on the side for folks like well. Donald Trump might
- 48:10Speaker 1: be an illustration to that, considering he is so angry
- 48:13Speaker 1: with Congressman Massey for being a thorn in his side
- 48:15Speaker 1: and saying no to his signature legislation simply because it
- 48:19Speaker 1: increased the debt. Man a principal six twenty six right now,
- 48:23Speaker 1: feel free to call it disagree with me or not?
- 48:25Speaker 1: In case maybe five one, three, seven, four, nine fifty
- 48:27Speaker 1: eight two three talk found five fifty on AT and
- 48:29Speaker 1: T phones and b like Brent, Brent, thank you for
- 48:32Speaker 1: the letter. Happy man, Brent. Is he listened about kerse
- 48:35Speaker 1: detalk station. Yes, poles are open and the Commonwealth of
- 48:39Speaker 1: Kentucky get in and vote. It's important. And there's quite
- 48:42Speaker 1: a few things beyond the Massy Gallring Race. So we're
- 48:45Speaker 1: gonna hear from Congressmanssiy at the top of the next hour.
- 48:47Speaker 1: It's gonna be great at having him on the show.
- 48:49Speaker 1: I love that guy. Yes, I am biased in favor
- 48:52Speaker 1: of him. Anyway, It's over to the phones. Uh my
- 48:54Speaker 1: submarine or friend curbage. Mike, who's at the Honor Flight
- 48:56Speaker 1: this morning? Please put it on your put it on
- 48:59Speaker 1: your notes to show up at eight thirty this evening
- 49:01Speaker 1: for the welcome home ceremony, get an injection of patriotism,
- 49:04Speaker 1: and probably have an allergy outbreak. Welcome back, Mike, my
- 49:07Speaker 1: dear friend. Good to have you on. How did it
- 49:09Speaker 1: look this morning?
- 49:10Speaker 10: Ab Brian, We just concluded the opening ceremony and a
- 49:15Speaker 10: tremendous send off, especially by the Hamilton County Fife and
- 49:19Speaker 10: Drum Corps. I'm just a sucker for those ifs, but
- 49:22Speaker 10: I know right off the top, I want to thank
- 49:24Speaker 10: you and Joe and the Morning Show for all your
- 49:26Speaker 10: support for Honor Flight over the years. And we have
- 49:30Speaker 10: eighty seven veterans today, eighty two Vietnam veterans, five Korean veterans,
- 49:35Speaker 10: and we actually have four female veterans gracing us today
- 49:38Speaker 10: so that we get to honor and I can think
- 49:40Speaker 10: of no better way initially today to thank these veterans.
- 49:44Speaker 10: For all our Kentucky patriots to get out there, exercise
- 49:47Speaker 10: your right to vote, and then be back here along
- 49:50Speaker 10: with the Ohio and Indiana residents at somewhere but around
- 49:54Speaker 10: eight thirty to welcome these patriots home. And the whole
- 49:57Speaker 10: deal is to say thank you to these eighties seve veterans.
- 50:01Speaker 10: But our three main stops in DC are the three
- 50:03Speaker 10: memorials World War Two Memorial, which was the genesis of
- 50:06Speaker 10: honor flight. Yeah, but now the Vietnam Memorial and the
- 50:11Speaker 10: Korean Memorial because we're less than a week away from
- 50:14Speaker 10: Memorial Day. To see the emotion of these soldiers, sailors,
- 50:19Speaker 10: airmen and marines. Look at those names on that wall,
- 50:22Speaker 10: and then even at the Korean now that they have
- 50:24Speaker 10: names on the wall. That's what it's all about. And
- 50:26Speaker 10: once again this being in between because this past Saturday
- 50:30Speaker 10: was Armed Forces Day, so as our active duty is
- 50:33Speaker 10: on watch right now, we want to keep them in
- 50:35Speaker 10: our prayers too. But we can't thank you enough. Brian.
- 50:38Speaker 10: And at about an hour from now, wheels up headed
- 50:41Speaker 10: to d C. And it could be a record breaker
- 50:43Speaker 10: because we fly in April and May, September and October
- 50:47Speaker 10: to avoid the hot weather. But the forecast in d
- 50:50Speaker 10: C for today ninety seven.
- 50:52Speaker 1: Oh no, that is sticky, man, that's a long time.
- 51:01Speaker 10: As you say, allergy outbreaks.
- 51:03Speaker 3: We can blame it on the sweat.
- 51:04Speaker 10: Yeah, we know why those tiers.
- 51:06Speaker 4: Are flowing there.
- 51:07Speaker 1: You are the honor flight folks do such a wonderful job.
- 51:10Speaker 1: And I guess given the aging population, as is always
- 51:13Speaker 1: the case, do you have any are there some of
- 51:15Speaker 1: the veterans that are disabled need to be pushed around
- 51:17Speaker 1: in wheelchairs because they're usually.
- 51:19Speaker 10: Are Yes, we have sixteen wheelchairs on board, and anybody,
- 51:26Speaker 10: especially on daylight today, we always bring extras because you know,
- 51:30Speaker 10: you figure they've probably got up around two or three
- 51:32Speaker 10: this morning just to be here for the five o'clock ceremonies.
- 51:35Speaker 10: So right about fourteen fifteen hundred when we're there at
- 51:38Speaker 10: the Korean, Vietnam and Lincoln Memorial. I'm sure a couple others,
- 51:42Speaker 10: and we constantly encourage that. In fact, for obvious reasons,
- 51:45Speaker 10: we've doubled up on our water and gatorade two that'll
- 51:48Speaker 10: be available on the buses good.
- 51:50Speaker 1: I know you take great care of them. All the
- 51:51Speaker 1: people at Honter Flight Trice, they take great care of them.
- 51:53Speaker 1: And A salutes each and every person who's been involved
- 51:56Speaker 1: with that's from the get go. It's such a beautiful,
- 51:58Speaker 1: beautiful thing you're doing for the American veterans, and most notably,
- 52:01Speaker 1: I gotta say it because when you talk about Vietnam,
- 52:03Speaker 1: they did not get a welcome home that they really expected.
- 52:06Speaker 1: They were treated miserably, and I think that's a black
- 52:09Speaker 1: mark on the United States history. But we can make
- 52:11Speaker 1: it good on it by showing up an Honor Flight
- 52:13Speaker 1: Try States welcome home ceremony tonight. CVEG. Cribbage, Mike, follow
- 52:17Speaker 1: the crowd. You'll know where you need to go, just
- 52:19Speaker 1: by following people that are there at around a thirty
- 52:22Speaker 1: at CVEG. Right, Thank you, Brian, Yes, sir, Yeah, take
- 52:26Speaker 1: care and thanks again for being there. Mike. Appreciate what
- 52:28Speaker 1: you do and thank you for your service to our country. George,
- 52:30Speaker 1: I see you're on the call screen six forty if
- 52:33Speaker 1: about KERCD talk station and Thomas right here inviting phone calls.
- 52:37Speaker 1: Got a couple online here five one, three, seven, four,
- 52:38Speaker 1: nine fifty five hundred, eight hundred and eight two to
- 52:40Speaker 1: three talk on five fifty on ET and T phones.
- 52:42Speaker 1: Real quick reminder, Christopher smith was on yesterday. You get
- 52:45Speaker 1: the Smith Event awesome it always is. You a great
- 52:47Speaker 1: job yesterday speaking to my friends in the black community
- 52:50Speaker 1: about the insults from the Democrats. Check that out and
- 52:52Speaker 1: show up today beginning at one o'clock. The petition is out.
- 52:56Speaker 1: It's ready for signature for voters who are registered to
- 52:58Speaker 1: vote in the City of Cincinnati. Him and Jackson the
- 53:00Speaker 1: River one PM. You can meet Christopher Smithman. He has
- 53:03Speaker 1: the petition which will require council members to get involved
- 53:07Speaker 1: in the hiring and firing decisions for the police chief
- 53:09Speaker 1: and the fire chief, hopefully avoiding the insanity brought about
- 53:12Speaker 1: by Sheryl Long, the city manager, and whatever the hell
- 53:15Speaker 1: she does behind the scenes that none of us seem
- 53:16Speaker 1: to know about. George is on the phone, George, thank
- 53:19Speaker 1: you so much for holding up the breake. Welcome to
- 53:20Speaker 1: the Morning Show.
- 53:23Speaker 8: By Brian you know observe fron Arm's wake. I'm up
- 53:29Speaker 8: in Northeast Indiana. Thomas Massey hitting the guy Trump should
- 53:35Speaker 8: be mad at over not vote for his field. They
- 53:40Speaker 8: filed so much crap in there that Thomas couldn't follow.
- 53:47Speaker 7: Yes, if they would have broken that bill up, I'm
- 53:53Speaker 7: positive he would have voted for the stuff Trump warted
- 53:56Speaker 7: and needed.
- 53:57Speaker 1: Absolutely, But.
- 54:01Speaker 8: Truck should be mad at the guys. Let that bill
- 54:04Speaker 8: get totally humm uh do with what he needed and warrant.
- 54:18Speaker 1: I agree. And you know that's the point that Massi's
- 54:21Speaker 1: made over and over again. It's blurred by the ridiculous
- 54:24Speaker 1: campaign as we've all been subjected to. And you and
- 54:27Speaker 1: I are both gonna be happy we don't have to
- 54:28Speaker 1: listen to those anymore. But you get a full morning
- 54:30Speaker 1: of it. This is it, and Congressman has to be
- 54:32Speaker 1: on the top of the top of their news and
- 54:33Speaker 1: he can confirm what you and I believed to be
- 54:35Speaker 1: because he said it before. Why did you vote against
- 54:37Speaker 1: the one big, beautiful bill because it sinks us into debt? Period?
- 54:42Speaker 1: Why weren't there offsets?
- 54:44Speaker 6: Right?
- 54:44Speaker 1: If you're gonna do a reconciliation bill, it all has
- 54:46Speaker 1: to do with money, right, you could offset some of
- 54:48Speaker 1: the spending. I would imagine that's all he's asking for.
- 54:51Speaker 1: You know, if you brought me a bill that said
- 54:53Speaker 1: fund the border wall or increased border security, and you
- 54:56Speaker 1: had a way to pay for it, I'm sure he
- 54:58Speaker 1: would have voted for it. He's not an open border
- 55:00Speaker 1: kind of guy. So yeah, and see that's where the
- 55:03Speaker 1: whole rhino thing comes in. George. It was mentioned earlier
- 55:06Speaker 1: in the program by Jay He frankly, you know, I'll
- 55:10Speaker 1: use the words pisses off a lot of Republicans. He
- 55:12Speaker 1: holds them accountable. He makes them stare themselves in the
- 55:15Speaker 1: mirror and say, who voted for all that additional spending
- 55:18Speaker 1: that isn't paid for. That's a challenge for them. Anyway,
- 55:24Speaker 1: his hands are clean.
- 55:27Speaker 6: You know.
- 55:27Speaker 1: You know, time and time again, you give a standalone
- 55:30Speaker 1: bill with one issue in it, you'll know a gazillion
- 55:33Speaker 1: years ahead of time how Thomas Massy's gonna vote on that.
- 55:36Speaker 1: You've packed something into an omnibus bill. There are in
- 55:39Speaker 1: things in every bill that he would be in favor of,
- 55:42Speaker 1: perhaps even against. But you know what, if it's in
- 55:44Speaker 1: a massive, giant thousand plus paid spending bill that increases
- 55:49Speaker 1: our spending while not offsetting that spending with cuts, He's
- 55:52Speaker 1: gonna vote no. I love that. The low voice in
- 56:00Speaker 1: the wilderness speaking about fiscal responsibility, which used to be
- 56:04Speaker 1: one of the proud top of the list tenants of
- 56:07Speaker 1: the Republican Party. Whatever happened to that Republican Party? How
- 56:12Speaker 1: do we find ourselves?
- 56:13Speaker 11: You know?
- 56:13Speaker 1: And I can be critical of Trump, and I know
- 56:15Speaker 1: I alienate some people for that, but I'm entitled to
- 56:17Speaker 1: do it because you know, to the first Trump administration,
- 56:18Speaker 1: how many trillions of dollars do we add to the
- 56:21Speaker 1: national debt? It was like five, I was stating. And
- 56:25Speaker 1: I don't get me wrong, like Congressman Massey, I'm in
- 56:30Speaker 1: favor of like about ninety percent of what's being done
- 56:34Speaker 1: by this current administration. And isn't it a damn sight
- 56:37Speaker 1: better than bumbling Biden walking around? I didn't even know
- 56:40Speaker 1: what day it was. We find about all the nefarious
- 56:43Speaker 1: actions going on behind the scenes, all the corruption in
- 56:46Speaker 1: all of these previously you know, lauded agencies, the CIA,
- 56:50Speaker 1: the FBI used to look at those with pride. They're
- 56:52Speaker 1: defending American greatness now not anymore, apparently of all political
- 56:56Speaker 1: organized and they're going after and trying to undermine the administration.
- 57:02Speaker 1: We found out about that, and we're finding out more
- 57:05Speaker 1: and more every single day. So yeah, salutes to Trump
- 57:08Speaker 1: for doing stuff like that. But no fiscal hawk is
- 57:10Speaker 1: he whatsoever? And that puts us all in peril. Doesn't
- 57:19Speaker 1: matter what political stripe you are. If you are facing
- 57:22Speaker 1: a credit card bill and you can't pay the tab
- 57:24Speaker 1: on it, you're in a world hurt. And it comes
- 57:28Speaker 1: with the government that guarantees its debt payments. You folks
- 57:32Speaker 1: that out there expecting more and more from government, I'm sorry.
- 57:34Speaker 1: The price tag on that deficit is a trillion plus
- 57:37Speaker 1: dollars a year, expected to double in a very short
- 57:40Speaker 1: period of time. You can't continue down this road six
- 57:46Speaker 1: forty five fifty five K see de talk station and
- 57:48Speaker 1: don't get down the road of pain. If you're dealing
- 57:50Speaker 1: with pain every day and you just think, oh, we'll
- 57:51Speaker 1: see decalk station. Those who betting polymarket and the prediction
- 57:56Speaker 1: markets who had today as the day the bombs are
- 57:58Speaker 1: going to start dropping on Iran and again no, it's
- 58:01Speaker 1: been held off and apparently it was going to happen today.
- 58:04Speaker 1: Based on Donald Trumpson's truth social media post, he said,
- 58:07Speaker 1: I've been asked by the Emir of Qatar a cutter,
- 58:10Speaker 1: the Crown Prince of Saudi Arabia and the President of
- 58:12Speaker 1: the United Arab Emirates to hold off on our planned
- 58:17Speaker 1: military attack of the Islamic Republic Iran, which was scheduled
- 58:20Speaker 1: for tomorrow that would have been today, in that serious
- 58:24Speaker 1: negotiations are now taking place, and that, in their opinion
- 58:29Speaker 1: as great leaders and allies, a deal will be made
- 58:32Speaker 1: which will be very acceptable to the United States of
- 58:34Speaker 1: America as well as all countries in the Middle East
- 58:36Speaker 1: and beyond. This deal will include again I'm just reading
- 58:40Speaker 1: his words. Importantly all caps, no nuclear weapons for Iran
- 58:45Speaker 1: exclamation point. Based upon my respect for the above named leaders,
- 58:48Speaker 1: I've instructed Secretary of War Pete Hegze, Chairman of the
- 58:50Speaker 1: Joint Chiefs of Staff, General Daniel Kine in US Military,
- 58:53Speaker 1: that we will not be doing the scheduled attack on
- 58:56Speaker 1: Iran tomorrow i e. Today, but if further instructed them,
- 59:00Speaker 1: be prepared to go forward with a full large scale
- 59:03Speaker 1: assault of Iran on a moment's notice in the event
- 59:07Speaker 1: that an acceptable deal is not reached. Thank you for
- 59:09Speaker 1: your attention this matter, President Donald Trump. In response, we
- 59:13Speaker 1: have the Iranian President saying dialogue does not mean surrender.
- 59:19Speaker 1: The Islamic Republic of Iran enters into dialogue with dignity,
- 59:22Speaker 1: authority and the preservation of the nation's rights, and under
- 59:25Speaker 1: no circumstances will retreat from the legal rights of the
- 59:28Speaker 1: people and the country. We will serve the people with
- 59:31Speaker 1: logic and with all of our might to the end
- 59:34Speaker 1: in safeguard the interest of in honor of Iran. Well,
- 59:37Speaker 1: I guess they want to have their cake and eat
- 59:38Speaker 1: it too, So I don't know what, of course, I
- 59:42Speaker 1: don't know what's going to happen to this, but this
- 59:44Speaker 1: is I think the eighth time, half a dozen times
- 59:52Speaker 1: that the deadlines have been extended. So you know, we
- 59:55Speaker 1: launch missiles attacks and we go into a pause because
- 59:58Speaker 1: we have a ceasefire that isn't really a sea fire.
- 1:00:00Speaker 1: We say the war's coming back on on again, off again,
- 1:00:02Speaker 1: So right now it's off again. And of course we
- 1:00:05Speaker 1: have Daniel Davis coming up at eight thirty that do
- 1:00:07Speaker 1: the deep dive on the situation to Ran but also
- 1:00:10Speaker 1: con be ask him about the Russians. Headline from the
- 1:00:16Speaker 1: Wall Street Journal today Russia's war is going badly on
- 1:00:19Speaker 1: the ground and in the air, and they talk about
- 1:00:21Speaker 1: the number of deaths. They say the advance is so
- 1:00:24Speaker 1: far by the Russians, the slowest in two years. Little
- 1:00:27Speaker 1: or nothing to show for the losses of soldiers, which
- 1:00:31Speaker 1: have been described as thirty five thousand killed or wounded
- 1:00:36Speaker 1: a month. Apparently the Ukrainians have figured out warfare and
- 1:00:44Speaker 1: with drone technology these days, we are all learning a
- 1:00:48Speaker 1: mountain of evidence on modern warfare. So the world is
- 1:00:52Speaker 1: most certainly a different place. And pivoting back real quick,
- 1:00:55Speaker 1: we were talking about AI centers and people's objection to
- 1:00:58Speaker 1: AI centers. One of the reasons the un of water,
- 1:01:00Speaker 1: and you know, is there a closed loop water system?
- 1:01:03Speaker 1: Is the water polluted? They don't usually soak up and
- 1:01:06Speaker 1: use the water. Some cooling systems do, but they put
- 1:01:09Speaker 1: it back in the ground. So Chris points out, hey,
- 1:01:12Speaker 1: you know, tons of industrial facilities are doing this already.
- 1:01:15Speaker 1: A mid sized office tower can evaporate thousands of gallons
- 1:01:18Speaker 1: of water on a hot day for air conditioning. So
- 1:01:21Speaker 1: that's kind of a problem going around all over the place.
- 1:01:23Speaker 1: But I still point out that these challenges are surmountable.
- 1:01:26Speaker 1: So ultimately the question becomes, do we want to embrace
- 1:01:29Speaker 1: artificial intelligence and take the leading role in it on
- 1:01:32Speaker 1: a global level, or are we going to reject it
- 1:01:35Speaker 1: outright and give it to the Chinese Communist Party to
- 1:01:38Speaker 1: develop I don't like that idea, and I think, really,
- 1:01:42Speaker 1: I think it's safe to say that probably a lot
- 1:01:44Speaker 1: of the outrage perhaps manufactured, kind of like the anti
- 1:01:49Speaker 1: police outrage we had to deal with or for a
- 1:01:52Speaker 1: period of time in this country. Yeah, I don't believe
- 1:01:54Speaker 1: that that was the generally widely accepted position the vast
- 1:01:58Speaker 1: majority of American people. We kind of like our police.
- 1:02:01Speaker 1: And I think if more people thought about artificial intelligence,
- 1:02:04Speaker 1: you know, you can't run away from it. It's coming.
- 1:02:08Speaker 1: That genie's out of the bottle. So do you want
- 1:02:11Speaker 1: to be the master of the genie or do you
- 1:02:13Speaker 1: want to delegate that responsibility to the Chinese Communist Party,
- 1:02:15Speaker 1: which certainly doesn't have our interest in mind. I think
- 1:02:18Speaker 1: we can deal with the surmountable challenges. I think they
- 1:02:21Speaker 1: can bring their own energy with them, We can overcome
- 1:02:23Speaker 1: the regulatory hurdles that a lot would allow them to
- 1:02:25Speaker 1: do that, and we can probably deal with the water
- 1:02:28Speaker 1: problem as well. Like, you know, don't build one in
- 1:02:30Speaker 1: the desert where water is already scarce. There's a thought,
- 1:02:32Speaker 1: how about building one real close to the Ohio River. Hmm,
- 1:02:36Speaker 1: that's a good idea. Six fifty five right now, Oh
- 1:02:38Speaker 1: look on the rundown after the top of the our news.
- 1:02:41Speaker 1: Do I read that right? Yes, Congressman Thomas Massey and
- 1:02:44Speaker 1: Ed Glryan he is an opportunity for equal time. Joe
- 1:02:47Speaker 1: Streker put that on the rundown as well.
- 1:02:49Speaker 12: Ed.
- 1:02:49Speaker 1: If you're out there you want to respond to Congressman Massy.
- 1:02:52Speaker 1: It isn't a debate, but you have the opportunity to
- 1:02:54Speaker 1: do that. Plus Tom Zawastowski coming up at seven thirty
- 1:02:57Speaker 1: the next hour stick around, be right back at the
- 1:03:01Speaker 1: top of the hour. Here the top so five right now,
- 1:03:16Speaker 1: fifty five cars de talk station. Not gonna wait for it.
- 1:03:19Speaker 1: It is time. Welcome back to the fifty five Casse
- 1:03:22Speaker 1: Morning Show. A man who I got to imagine is exhausted.
- 1:03:25Speaker 1: Congressman Thomas Massey. It's good to have you back on
- 1:03:28Speaker 1: the show, my friend.
- 1:03:29Speaker 12: Hey, I can sleep after the election, and I could
- 1:03:31Speaker 12: do these next eleven hours standing on my head.
- 1:03:34Speaker 1: Brother, I know you can. I got tremendous respect for you,
- 1:03:37Speaker 1: and this is no shock to my listening audiences. Always
- 1:03:39Speaker 1: been a huge fan of you and your firm wedded
- 1:03:41Speaker 1: conviction to the Constitution and fiscal responsibility. My brother, we
- 1:03:45Speaker 1: are forty trillion dollars in debt. We can barely pay
- 1:03:47Speaker 1: the debt service on it. This is an existential threat
- 1:03:50Speaker 1: to the United States of America and somebody's got to
- 1:03:52Speaker 1: wake up to that reality. Sadly, you're like the lone
- 1:03:54Speaker 1: thorn in everybody's side, constantly reminding everyone that we spend
- 1:03:59Speaker 1: too much. Are you in favor of border security? Congressman
- 1:04:03Speaker 1: mass absolutely listen.
- 1:04:06Speaker 12: I got a chance to listen to my own ads
- 1:04:08Speaker 12: and my opponent's ads while I was sitting here waiting
- 1:04:10Speaker 12: for the show to start. The ads that are running
- 1:04:13Speaker 12: on your show, if you vote against one spending package,
- 1:04:18Speaker 12: you have voted against everything I know, right, because they
- 1:04:21Speaker 12: put it all in one bill, so they can come
- 1:04:24Speaker 12: on there and say he voted against the wall, he
- 1:04:28Speaker 12: voted against paying the soldiers. He voted Well, that's because
- 1:04:31Speaker 12: you spent too damn much money in the overall bill.
- 1:04:34Speaker 12: And when you give me these bills separately, I'll vote
- 1:04:37Speaker 12: for them, but not when you put them together and
- 1:04:39Speaker 12: then hide stuff in it, like banning industrial hemp in
- 1:04:42Speaker 12: the state of Kentucky, which they did, so it's kind
- 1:04:47Speaker 12: of crazy. They can run any ads they want. And
- 1:04:48Speaker 12: then the other word, the woke Eddy ad Well woke
- 1:04:52Speaker 12: Edy's ads where you said he voted against a ban
- 1:04:56Speaker 12: on transgender mutal relationship of minors, you know, paid for
- 1:05:00Speaker 12: by taxpayer money. Well, why the hell, By the way,
- 1:05:04Speaker 12: all that money's still in the bill. Okay, I have
- 1:05:07Speaker 12: voted to ban it, but it didn't succeed, and then
- 1:05:12Speaker 12: they had a ban for it in the first version
- 1:05:14Speaker 12: of the Big Beautiful Bill, which didn't pass the Senate.
- 1:05:18Speaker 12: So then they put all the money back in the
- 1:05:20Speaker 12: bill to do sex changes on miners. The final Big
- 1:05:24Speaker 12: Beautiful Bill had them all the money for sex changes
- 1:05:27Speaker 12: on miners. I voted against it. I'm the only Republican
- 1:05:30Speaker 12: that voted against it. All these sobs that vote for
- 1:05:34Speaker 12: a CR and an omnibus, they're voting for a tax
- 1:05:37Speaker 12: payer money for sex changes for miners. The ban is
- 1:05:40Speaker 12: not in there. They are voting for immigrant welfare fraud
- 1:05:44Speaker 12: because they've done nothing to reform the program that we
- 1:05:47Speaker 12: saw in Minnesota. I am the only Republican who hasn't
- 1:05:50Speaker 12: voted for that stuff. Like it's crazy. And you know,
- 1:05:55Speaker 12: the problem, Brian, is that you got all these politicians.
- 1:06:00Speaker 12: When they're running, they'll promise you everything, and then they
- 1:06:03Speaker 12: go up there and they just go along to get along.
- 1:06:06Speaker 12: I'm running in against a guy who promises to go
- 1:06:09Speaker 12: along to get along. That's literally his campaign slogan, vote
- 1:06:13Speaker 12: for me, I'll be a rubber stamp. Yes, it's it's crazy.
- 1:06:17Speaker 12: So anyways, it's a huge referendum. Let me just go
- 1:06:21Speaker 12: over the high points here this race. It's the most
- 1:06:25Speaker 12: expensive congressional primary in the history in the two hundred
- 1:06:29Speaker 12: and fifty year history of the United States. This is
- 1:06:32Speaker 12: the most expensive primary ever. Now, how to get so expensive.
- 1:06:37Speaker 12: They spent fourteen years trying to buy my vote. And
- 1:06:40Speaker 12: what they found is there's no price. There's no price
- 1:06:43Speaker 12: on my vote. It belongs to people in Kentucky. So
- 1:06:47Speaker 12: after fourteen years of trying to buy my vote, and
- 1:06:50Speaker 12: these are foreign lobbyists, they said, screw it, We'll just
- 1:06:53Speaker 12: buy the seat. We'll just try to We need a
- 1:06:56Speaker 12: warm body and a guy from Central casting. When those
- 1:06:59Speaker 12: are the frame as the president uses to describe his
- 1:07:03Speaker 12: chosen candidate, it's actually Miriam Aidelson's chosen candidate.
- 1:07:08Speaker 1: That's where a lot of the money's coming from.
- 1:07:10Speaker 12: Correct, almost all of the money. And listen when I
- 1:07:14Speaker 12: say expensive race, this has been about a thirty five
- 1:07:17Speaker 12: million dollar race. I'm going to say, when the dust
- 1:07:19Speaker 12: settles an account at all, it's going to be a
- 1:07:21Speaker 12: forty million dollar race because all that's being tracked right
- 1:07:24Speaker 12: now is actually the advertising. You don't know how much
- 1:07:28Speaker 12: is spent on the consultants and on the door knocking
- 1:07:32Speaker 12: and all that other stuff. So but let's right now,
- 1:07:35Speaker 12: it's about thirty five million. They've spent twenty million against me.
- 1:07:39Speaker 12: All of that money has come from Miriam Aidelson, Paul Singer,
- 1:07:44Speaker 12: and John Paulson. These are Israeli first. In fact, Miriam
- 1:07:47Speaker 12: Aidelson was born in Israel, and Trump says she's more
- 1:07:50Speaker 12: faithful to Israel than she is to the United States.
- 1:07:53Speaker 12: I say, she's spent so much money in my race.
- 1:07:57Speaker 12: Now they need taxpayer funded money for the ball room.
- 1:08:00Speaker 12: Because she was allegedly going to pay for this ballroom.
- 1:08:03Speaker 12: It was going to be private money. But that was
- 1:08:05Speaker 12: her money. They spent it in this race. I guess
- 1:08:07Speaker 12: they're gonna have to big build a smaller ballroom. But
- 1:08:12Speaker 12: it's all from them. And then it's all that. When
- 1:08:14Speaker 12: you hear Maga Kentucky, it's not Maga and it's not Kentucky.
- 1:08:18Speaker 12: It's three billionaires that make their money off hedge funds,
- 1:08:21Speaker 12: private equity, and gambling.
- 1:08:24Speaker 1: Well, I guess, in so far as the Israeli question
- 1:08:27Speaker 1: is concerned, it's not that you are against Israel or
- 1:08:30Speaker 1: pro Palestine or something, isn't it, because you just regularly
- 1:08:33Speaker 1: vote against foreign aid to other countries because we brand
- 1:08:36Speaker 1: don't too much.
- 1:08:37Speaker 12: Here, Brian. One of my first pieces of legislation was
- 1:08:40Speaker 12: to defund foreign aid to Egypt. This is ostensibly one
- 1:08:44Speaker 12: of Israel's adversaries, right, So I voted to defund. I
- 1:08:49Speaker 12: voted to defund money to Ukraine, to Egypt, to Syria.
- 1:08:54Speaker 12: You pick every country that we send foreign aid to,
- 1:08:58Speaker 12: I vote against sending the money, and that includes Israel.
- 1:09:01Speaker 12: Now they just happen to be the biggest recipient of it,
- 1:09:04Speaker 12: and then Israel can turn around and use that money
- 1:09:07Speaker 12: to buy US weapons. So I got, actually the military
- 1:09:10Speaker 12: industrial complexes against me. And if you look at APAK
- 1:09:16Speaker 12: apak is the American Israel Public Affairs Committee, they're after me.
- 1:09:20Speaker 12: They've spent millions of dollars because they're basically a front
- 1:09:24Speaker 12: for the military industrial complex. And then you got the
- 1:09:27Speaker 12: Republican Jewish Coalition that spent millions of dollars against me,
- 1:09:31Speaker 12: And when I try to point this out, people are like, well,
- 1:09:34Speaker 12: that's anti semitic. Why way is that anti semitic to
- 1:09:40Speaker 12: point out that foreign lobbyists who lobby for the state
- 1:09:43Speaker 12: of Israel, and they say on their website they say,
- 1:09:48Speaker 12: we think we're going to win this race. And when
- 1:09:50Speaker 12: they say, they're not saying they think that my opponent
- 1:09:54Speaker 12: Will Geddy is going to win. They think they will
- 1:09:56Speaker 12: win because they're trying to get a puppet in there.
- 1:09:59Speaker 12: So anyways, between the three billionaires that formed MAGA Kentucky,
- 1:10:03Speaker 12: which is neither MAGA nor Kentucky, and APAK and RJC,
- 1:10:09Speaker 12: they've we can track about ninety five percent of all
- 1:10:12Speaker 12: the money spent on his behalf, including those ads that
- 1:10:14Speaker 12: we're just run on your radio show, come from the
- 1:10:17Speaker 12: Israeli lobby. So this is a referendum on whether they
- 1:10:21Speaker 12: have monolithic control over foreign policy in the Republican Party.
- 1:10:27Speaker 1: Well, and some are suggesting that they own President Trump
- 1:10:29Speaker 1: in so far as the well the situation where Iran
- 1:10:32Speaker 1: is concerned. And I'm not someone who's come to that
- 1:10:34Speaker 1: conclusion necessarily because I know we have some interest in
- 1:10:36Speaker 1: dealing with the Iranians. But a lot of people are
- 1:10:39Speaker 1: concerned about that the level of influence Israel has generally
- 1:10:42Speaker 1: speaking on foreign policy.
- 1:10:44Speaker 12: Well Israel, and not just Israel, but the current government
- 1:10:48Speaker 12: of Israel, which by the way, not all of Israel
- 1:10:51Speaker 12: likes the current government of Israel. It's Benjamin Natan Yahoo,
- 1:10:54Speaker 12: and they've they've convinced us to go fight their war.
- 1:10:59Speaker 12: It's and this is this should be better known. The
- 1:11:03Speaker 12: first attack on Iran and the second attack on Iran
- 1:11:06Speaker 12: were not about depleting the nuclear weapons. It was about
- 1:11:09Speaker 12: taking down the number of conventional missiles that they had
- 1:11:13Speaker 12: so that they couldn't get enough missiles to overwhelm Israel's
- 1:11:18Speaker 12: anti missile system. It had nothing really to do about
- 1:11:21Speaker 12: nuclear weapons. And that's been reported. People know that. Anybody
- 1:11:26Speaker 12: that's honest has acknowledged that's what those two fights are about.
- 1:11:30Speaker 12: But this race is not about that war. I mean,
- 1:11:35Speaker 12: the folks, the Israel folks, are trying to make it
- 1:11:39Speaker 12: about making an example of me. And here's the thing.
- 1:11:43Speaker 12: They're trying to buy the seat. I think they underestimated
- 1:11:46Speaker 12: the reserve price for this seat. They thought, probably, well,
- 1:11:51Speaker 12: we'll go in and we'll spend five million or ten
- 1:11:53Speaker 12: million and we'll just we'll take we'll snatch his seat.
- 1:11:56Speaker 12: What happened is tens of thousands of people started sending
- 1:12:00Speaker 12: me donations twenty bucks, five bucks, fifty bucks, two hundred bucks.
- 1:12:05Speaker 12: The grassroots kicked in. I never imagined this. I thought
- 1:12:09Speaker 12: I might be able to raise a million dollars for
- 1:12:11Speaker 12: this race from the grassroots. We've raised over seven million
- 1:12:13Speaker 12: dollars for this race from the grassroots. And so even
- 1:12:17Speaker 12: though we don't have as much money as the billionaires
- 1:12:20Speaker 12: who are running against us, we've had enough money to
- 1:12:26Speaker 12: post up against them and stay ahead in the polls.
- 1:12:28Speaker 12: Fight a goad fight, fight a great fight. So much
- 1:12:32Speaker 12: so that they sent a secretary of war to Kentucky
- 1:12:37Speaker 12: yesterday to campaign against me. That is a good sign
- 1:12:42Speaker 12: that their internal polling shows what my internal polling shows,
- 1:12:45Speaker 12: which is we're probably going to pull this thing out
- 1:12:48Speaker 12: today if enough people show up. They're terrified because here's
- 1:12:52Speaker 12: what I've done. I've energized a group of Republican voters.
- 1:12:56Speaker 12: The voters that are under the age of sixty five
- 1:12:59Speaker 12: are are now excited and engaged, and more so than
- 1:13:03Speaker 12: ever people between the ages of twenty and forty. These
- 1:13:06Speaker 12: are typical you know, you can't really rely on that
- 1:13:09Speaker 12: age group to vote reliably, and we have energized them.
- 1:13:14Speaker 12: Then turning out, we're seeing record turnout.
- 1:13:17Speaker 1: And I have been noticing that too, the growing ranks
- 1:13:20Speaker 1: of folks who identify more libertarian than traditional Republican, which
- 1:13:24Speaker 1: I've always appreciated you doing exactly that. You know, the
- 1:13:28Speaker 1: Republican Party, the Democrat Party have such wide space between
- 1:13:32Speaker 1: the different elements in them. You got communists all the
- 1:13:34Speaker 1: way through, as I like to call them, old JFK
- 1:13:36Speaker 1: type Democrats, which no longer really exist anymore. And then
- 1:13:39Speaker 1: you've got a whole swath of Republicans that I wish
- 1:13:42Speaker 1: more and more embraced a libertarian philosophy, which you have
- 1:13:46Speaker 1: sort of championed over the years. That's that's something that
- 1:13:48Speaker 1: young people truly appreciate. Congressman.
- 1:13:50Speaker 12: Well, let's observe the ten percent of the time I
- 1:13:53Speaker 12: don't vote with the party in DC, because I last
- 1:13:55Speaker 12: year I voted ninety percent of the time with the party. Yes,
- 1:13:58Speaker 12: the ten percent of the time. The problem isn't that
- 1:14:02Speaker 12: I'm voting against the Republican Party in Washington, d C.
- 1:14:05Speaker 12: It's the problem is that ten percent of the time
- 1:14:07Speaker 12: the Republican Party in Washington, d C. Is betraying their
- 1:14:11Speaker 12: promises to the American people and voting against the American people.
- 1:14:15Speaker 12: They're voting for warrantless spying on Americans. They're voting to
- 1:14:20Speaker 12: undo the DOGE cuts and spend us into oblivion. They
- 1:14:24Speaker 12: are voting on giving special privileges and immunities to monsanto,
- 1:14:29Speaker 12: to data centers. That's where I get my back up
- 1:14:33Speaker 12: and I say, sorry, no, I'm not with the party
- 1:14:36Speaker 12: today when you're trying out on this cronyism or violating
- 1:14:40Speaker 12: the First Amendment or the Fourth Amendment. I'm the chairman
- 1:14:43Speaker 12: of the Second Amendment Caucus, by the way, so obviously
- 1:14:47Speaker 12: I care about all of that. They even found a
- 1:14:50Speaker 12: way to violate the Seventh Amendment in the Bill of Rights.
- 1:14:54Speaker 12: You're an attorney, so I'm pretty sure you know what
- 1:14:57Speaker 12: this is. It's a right to jury trial. They take
- 1:15:00Speaker 12: that away for if you get harmed by a vaccine,
- 1:15:02Speaker 12: by a pest. They're trying to take it away, if
- 1:15:04Speaker 12: you get harmed by a pesticide or a data center.
- 1:15:08Speaker 12: They're trying to give all these things immunities and in
- 1:15:11Speaker 12: some cases succeeding.
- 1:15:13Speaker 1: Let's pause for a moment. We'll bring Congress from Nasy
- 1:15:15Speaker 1: back for a few more moments of his time as
- 1:15:17Speaker 1: we head to the polls and there, And you haven't
- 1:15:19Speaker 1: gotten a memo on that and appreciate I know, I
- 1:15:23Speaker 1: heard media appreciates all the advertising revenue Congress from Massy,
- 1:15:26Speaker 1: And I know you didn't want to have to spend it.
- 1:15:27Speaker 1: And wouldn't it have been nice to save the forty
- 1:15:29Speaker 1: or so million dollars spent with Republicans battling Maybe Republicans
- 1:15:34Speaker 1: not quite sure about ed honestly, but wouldn't that money
- 1:15:36Speaker 1: been better served in November in the big race?
- 1:15:39Speaker 12: I guess so. I hope you've upgraded your studio and
- 1:15:41Speaker 12: bought a new antenna and new equipment there for you guys,
- 1:15:45Speaker 12: a cushy chair for Joe Strecker. These are the things
- 1:15:48Speaker 12: I hope you've been able to do with the money.
- 1:15:51Speaker 1: Yeah, we're never going to see the love from that.
- 1:15:53Speaker 1: I trust you on trust me on that one. Here's
- 1:15:55Speaker 1: a question for you, and headline from the Associated Press yesterday,
- 1:15:58Speaker 1: Kentucky Republic Kentucky Republicans love Trump? Will they ignore him
- 1:16:03Speaker 1: and reelect Thomas Massy? Can you have it both ways?
- 1:16:06Speaker 7: Oh?
- 1:16:07Speaker 12: Yeah, you know you can. And in fact, I had
- 1:16:09Speaker 12: three of my colleagues from Congress, Lauren Bobert, Victoria Sparts,
- 1:16:12Speaker 12: and Warren Davidson come down and campaign with me, along
- 1:16:16Speaker 12: with Senator Ran Paul, and all four of them had
- 1:16:19Speaker 12: the same message. Look, you can work with President Trump,
- 1:16:22Speaker 12: you can love President Trump, you could support him, but
- 1:16:26Speaker 12: you can also vote for Thomas Massey. This is not
- 1:16:29Speaker 12: mutually These are not mutually exclusive things. In fact, a
- 1:16:33Speaker 12: majority of the people who go vote today are going
- 1:16:34Speaker 12: to vote for both of us. And let me make
- 1:16:37Speaker 12: a case. You know, people we talked about being an obstructionist,
- 1:16:40Speaker 12: and they're trying to say I don't vote for anything.
- 1:16:43Speaker 12: The reality is today is the six month anniversary of
- 1:16:46Speaker 12: me passing the Epstein Files Transparency Act. Yeah, four hundred
- 1:16:50Speaker 12: and twenty seven to one in the House, one hundred
- 1:16:52Speaker 12: to nothing in the Senate, and the President signed it.
- 1:16:55Speaker 12: So people say, can you work with the president? Will
- 1:16:58Speaker 12: he sign your bills? He signed one six months ago
- 1:17:00Speaker 12: to the day. Well can you build coalitions? Well yeah,
- 1:17:04Speaker 12: one hundred to nothing in the Senate and four twenty
- 1:17:06Speaker 12: seven to one in the House. That's a pretty big coalition.
- 1:17:09Speaker 12: But that's not all that I've got done. I recently
- 1:17:12Speaker 12: got my Prime Act, and I've been on your radio
- 1:17:14Speaker 12: talking about this since twenty fifteen. It's in the Farm Bill.
- 1:17:18Speaker 12: It's a plan that I've been working on for four years.
- 1:17:22Speaker 12: The bill is more than ten years. I've been at it,
- 1:17:25Speaker 12: getting bipartisan support. And I told the Chairman of the
- 1:17:28Speaker 12: AD Committee when he was running to be Chairman of
- 1:17:31Speaker 12: AG Committee, I said, listen, this farm bill comes up
- 1:17:34Speaker 12: every six years. I don't want to be here standing
- 1:17:36Speaker 12: on the floor telling you no when you asked me
- 1:17:39Speaker 12: to vote for your farm bill. So here's what you
- 1:17:41Speaker 12: got to do if you want my vote. And we,
- 1:17:44Speaker 12: by golly, we got the Prime Act and the Farm
- 1:17:46Speaker 12: Bill four years later, which was last month. And not
- 1:17:50Speaker 12: only was the Chairman willing to put it in there,
- 1:17:53Speaker 12: he got excited about having it in there because it
- 1:17:56Speaker 12: caused a bunch of other Republicans to vote for a
- 1:17:59Speaker 12: farm bill the other otherwise otherwise had no reason to
- 1:18:02Speaker 12: vote for. So I helped the farm Bill get passed
- 1:18:06Speaker 12: by working with the Chairman on a piece of legislation
- 1:18:09Speaker 12: that literally breaks up this meat monopoly, empowers farmers and consumers.
- 1:18:15Speaker 12: This is a dirty word, but there's people on the
- 1:18:18Speaker 12: other side of the aisle that like my bill because
- 1:18:20Speaker 12: they realize consumers are going to be able to buy
- 1:18:22Speaker 12: locally by their beef, pork, and lamb locally. It's more sustainable,
- 1:18:26Speaker 12: sustainably farmed without vaccines and chemicals in it, accountability, and
- 1:18:33Speaker 12: it's greener because you're not shipping these cattle than Nebraska
- 1:18:37Speaker 12: having them fed out, cut up and ship back to Kroger.
- 1:18:40Speaker 12: You can sell directly to consumer as long as you
- 1:18:43Speaker 12: use a local health inspector in one of your small facilities.
- 1:18:47Speaker 12: And we're the biggest cattle state ees to the Mississippi.
- 1:18:51Speaker 12: So when somebody says, well, what have you done for Kentucky,
- 1:18:55Speaker 12: there's your answer. So very excited about that. So two
- 1:19:01Speaker 12: other things I want to point out. I have one
- 1:19:03Speaker 12: hundred percent pro life record, one hundred percent pro Second
- 1:19:07Speaker 12: Amendment record. Yeah, and I've got the endorsement of Northern
- 1:19:10Speaker 12: Kentucky Right to Life, Kentucky Right to Life, Gun Owners
- 1:19:14Speaker 12: of America, National Association of Gun Rights. Woke Y has
- 1:19:18Speaker 12: none of that because, in addition to not debating me,
- 1:19:21Speaker 12: in addition to skipping eight debates, he has never filled
- 1:19:24Speaker 12: out their forms. And the reality is he doesn't want
- 1:19:27Speaker 12: to disclose that he would actually support red flag laws
- 1:19:31Speaker 12: if the DC establishment told him to vote for red
- 1:19:34Speaker 12: flag laws. He would also vote for the chemical abortion drugs.
- 1:19:39Speaker 12: He would vote for exceptions, you know, to the abortion bands.
- 1:19:47Speaker 12: He would vote to fund Planned Parenthood in the omnibus bill,
- 1:19:50Speaker 12: which they do get funded in the omnibus bill. So
- 1:19:54Speaker 12: that's why he doesn't want to fill out those forms
- 1:19:56Speaker 12: fair enough.
- 1:19:57Speaker 1: And yeah, I made the point out earlier, and I
- 1:19:58Speaker 1: think you probably would agree with me. Because of the
- 1:20:00Speaker 1: Supreme Court over turned Roe v. Way, it becomes a
- 1:20:02Speaker 1: state issue because the Constitution does not address such matters.
- 1:20:05Speaker 1: It's one of those issues that's held by the states
- 1:20:07Speaker 1: that federal law, insofar as allowing for or disallowing abortion,
- 1:20:11Speaker 1: is not an issue anymore, but funding is. And that's
- 1:20:14Speaker 1: your point on your web page. I believe no public
- 1:20:16Speaker 1: money should never be spent on abortion procedures, abortion bills,
- 1:20:19Speaker 1: or embroyonic stem cell research. So cut the funding off,
- 1:20:21Speaker 1: which is consistent with your across the board philosophy as
- 1:20:24Speaker 1: it has been since you're elected. Cut cut, cut, quit
- 1:20:27Speaker 1: spending so damn much money. If you want to know
- 1:20:28Speaker 1: the answer to why Congress from mess. He voted no.
- 1:20:31Speaker 12: There's your answer Listen, speaking of spending so damn much money,
- 1:20:37Speaker 12: look at how much debt we have racked up in
- 1:20:40Speaker 12: sixteen months. We've racked up two point seven trillion dollars
- 1:20:44Speaker 12: of debt in the sixteen months that we've controlled the
- 1:20:47Speaker 12: House and the Senate and the White House. And I'm
- 1:20:49Speaker 12: not putting all that blame on Trump. Look, it's the
- 1:20:53Speaker 12: founding fathers put the power of the purse and the
- 1:20:55Speaker 12: House of Representatives. And some people are mad at me
- 1:20:58Speaker 12: for not voting for the CEO and the Omnibus and
- 1:21:01Speaker 12: the other giant spending bills. But the reality is that's
- 1:21:04Speaker 12: why we're going bankrupt. And I used to say our
- 1:21:06Speaker 12: grandkids would feel the pain from this debt. The reality
- 1:21:11Speaker 12: is we're paying so much interest on the debt. Do
- 1:21:13Speaker 12: you know we pay twelve times as much to service
- 1:21:17Speaker 12: the interest on the debt as we do for all
- 1:21:19Speaker 12: roads and bridges at the federal level. That's a big
- 1:21:23Speaker 12: hole in the budget, a huge hole in the budget.
- 1:21:26Speaker 12: We spend more on interest on the debt than we
- 1:21:28Speaker 12: do for our entire military.
- 1:21:29Speaker 1: Now and you have been urging the return to regular
- 1:21:33Speaker 1: order and doing a job description function of Congress, which
- 1:21:36Speaker 1: is twelve appropriation bill since Bayer was Speaker.
- 1:21:39Speaker 12: The biggest look. I have voted for term limits, I
- 1:21:42Speaker 12: voted for a balanced budget amendment. But I'll tell you
- 1:21:44Speaker 12: the thing that would fix things the most is an
- 1:21:47Speaker 12: amendment to the Constitution that requires every topic have a
- 1:21:51Speaker 12: separate bill, that we don't put all of these things
- 1:21:54Speaker 12: together in one giant bill with the swamp. Brian, I've
- 1:21:57Speaker 12: been talking to you about this forever for as long
- 1:22:00Speaker 12: as I've been in Congress, and I got there and
- 1:22:02Speaker 12: saw what they do with these big giant bills. And
- 1:22:05Speaker 12: by the way, once they get a big bill that's
- 1:22:07Speaker 12: snowballing down the hill, that's when the lobbyists jump in
- 1:22:10Speaker 12: and add their stuff to it. Right, That's when the
- 1:22:13Speaker 12: data centers jump in and get and add their privileges
- 1:22:17Speaker 12: and immunities and rights to override state law and local
- 1:22:20Speaker 12: zoning laws and EPA laws. That's when they attached their
- 1:22:25Speaker 12: crap to it. And so the biggest change we can
- 1:22:27Speaker 12: make is to have separate votes. And here's why they
- 1:22:30Speaker 12: don't want that, because when you get a guy like
- 1:22:33Speaker 12: me who votes on his principles and votes, you know
- 1:22:37Speaker 12: to basically try to cut spending. You can blame him
- 1:22:40Speaker 12: for everything under the sun if he votes against one omnibus.
- 1:22:43Speaker 1: Bill, like the advertising proof, just like.
- 1:22:45Speaker 12: The ads, every other ad.
- 1:22:47Speaker 1: That's why I was laughing. If you had only one
- 1:22:49Speaker 1: issue per bill, there would be ed Gollrain ads anymore.
- 1:22:53Speaker 12: Congress Domestic it wouldn't exist because when it comes up
- 1:22:56Speaker 12: for single votes, I vote to keep men out of
- 1:22:59Speaker 12: women's sports in the Olympic. I have Olympics. I vote
- 1:23:02Speaker 12: to dfund. There should be no federal funding. It's just
- 1:23:05Speaker 12: ridiculous that I'm saying that there should be no federal
- 1:23:08Speaker 12: funding for transgender surgeries on minors. Why the hell is
- 1:23:11Speaker 12: there federal funding to start with? But I've voted to
- 1:23:14Speaker 12: get rid of it. Marjorie Taylor Green had a standalone
- 1:23:17Speaker 12: bill is one of her last things. She forced to
- 1:23:19Speaker 12: vote on it before she left. I voted for that.
- 1:23:21Speaker 12: I voted for standalone bills to fund the Wall. I
- 1:23:24Speaker 12: voted for standalone bills to fund ice and border patrol.
- 1:23:29Speaker 12: It's when they put all that stuff in one giant
- 1:23:31Speaker 12: bill and then they dare you to vote against it.
- 1:23:34Speaker 1: They do, they do.
- 1:23:35Speaker 12: I have one guy.
- 1:23:36Speaker 1: Oh, and then Donald Trump comes completely unhinged. You know,
- 1:23:39Speaker 1: I guess it's one of the most troubling things about
- 1:23:42Speaker 1: this part of me. And as much as I support,
- 1:23:44Speaker 1: like you do ninety percent of what Trump is all about,
- 1:23:47Speaker 1: I want the Kentucky voters to reject Gollrain, if for
- 1:23:51Speaker 1: no other reason, then it spanks Trump a little bit
- 1:23:53Speaker 1: because in this particular case, he is attacking a good, decent,
- 1:23:57Speaker 1: honorable man that has principles. Some mass you at least
- 1:24:00Speaker 1: have them. I think that's one of the reasons that
- 1:24:02Speaker 1: rubbed some of the Republican parties some way, because you
- 1:24:04Speaker 1: prove time and time again that they lack the principles correct.
- 1:24:09Speaker 12: And you know, I don't know many married couples who
- 1:24:12Speaker 12: agree with their spouse more than ninety percent of the time.
- 1:24:17Speaker 12: And I'm not in a cult. I'm not in a marriage,
- 1:24:21Speaker 12: although this AI ad say I'm in a throttle up
- 1:24:24Speaker 12: there in DC.
- 1:24:25Speaker 4: I know.
- 1:24:26Speaker 1: But that's a sad part of reality that someone believes
- 1:24:29Speaker 1: what they're seeing with that artificial intelligence stuff. You know,
- 1:24:32Speaker 1: that's why money works in campaigns, because people are not
- 1:24:35Speaker 1: paying attention along the way. I know all about you.
- 1:24:37Speaker 1: I know why you voted the way you did. I
- 1:24:39Speaker 1: could reject every single assertion from the oppositions adds because
- 1:24:43Speaker 1: I pay attention. It's the sad part is that someone
- 1:24:46Speaker 1: says you voted to you wouldn't vote to fund the
- 1:24:48Speaker 1: border wall or whatever, fails to appreciate your broader context,
- 1:24:51Speaker 1: which is, yeah, that was one item in a thousand
- 1:24:53Speaker 1: page bill, and I'm not going to vote for all
- 1:24:55Speaker 1: that stuff at once, because well, it costs too much money.
- 1:24:58Speaker 13: Yeah.
- 1:24:59Speaker 12: Well, and I was also going to add the only person,
- 1:25:03Speaker 12: the only entity I should say that deserves your one
- 1:25:06Speaker 12: hundred percent faith and trust is God, and that's the
- 1:25:11Speaker 12: only thing that I trust one hundred percent.
- 1:25:13Speaker 1: It will end on that positive note.
- 1:25:15Speaker 12: Whatever happens today, by the way, is God's will and
- 1:25:18Speaker 12: it is historic. They will write about this in the
- 1:25:22Speaker 12: history books. I hope if you're listening to this show,
- 1:25:25Speaker 12: you go vote before six pm. That's when the polls close.
- 1:25:28Speaker 12: Get there a little bit earlier than that. Kentucky Revised
- 1:25:32Speaker 12: Statutes requires that your employer let you have time off
- 1:25:36Speaker 12: to go vote. So if you need to leave an
- 1:25:38Speaker 12: hour early, let them know you got to leave an
- 1:25:40Speaker 12: hour early to go vote.
- 1:25:42Speaker 1: And apparently as long as you're in line by six
- 1:25:44Speaker 1: you will be allowed to vote even at the clock
- 1:25:46Speaker 1: picked past six. Congressman Thomas Massey, a distinct honor and
- 1:25:49Speaker 1: privilege as always to have you on the fifty five
- 1:25:50Speaker 1: Krsey Morning Show, most notably on this all important election day.

- 1:26:05Speaker 12: They've been through a lot in this, all this mud slinging,
- 1:26:08Speaker 12: and my beautiful wife who's been so tolerant of this.
- 1:26:12Speaker 12: She's even been attacked by the President on true social
- 1:26:16Speaker 12: I think that was beyond the pale. But as soon
- 1:26:18Speaker 12: as I hang up here, I'm walking across the street
- 1:26:20Speaker 12: to the polling location and casting my own vote.
- 1:26:23Speaker 1: Brother, just like Shannon's son did for the first time
- 1:26:27Speaker 1: voter there he is proudly beaming with the I voted

- 1:26:56Speaker 1: electric because they're found station. If if you have KARCD
- 1:27:01Speaker 1: talk station, I'm very happy Tuesday to you. What an
- 1:27:04Speaker 1: enlightening conversation. So if you hear the guy Ryan is
- 1:27:07Speaker 1: just listened to the interview with Thomas Massey right there,
- 1:27:09Speaker 1: and you'll appreciate and understand why, well, you're not being
- 1:27:11Speaker 1: told the truth, you're being lied to. I guess we
- 1:27:14Speaker 1: phrase it that way. Welcome back. It's time of the
- 1:27:16Speaker 1: week we talked to we the People Convention dot org.
- 1:27:18Speaker 1: Tom Zawastowski, I check you check out his web page,
- 1:27:21Speaker 1: bookmarket and listen to his podcast every week. Tom, Welcome
- 1:27:24Speaker 1: back to the show man. It's always great having you on.
- 1:27:27Speaker 6: Oh man, Brian, what are you and Joe doing to
- 1:27:30Speaker 6: me here? Following Brian Massey? You know Thomas Massey for
- 1:27:34Speaker 6: this interview you just did. Man, I think Trumps will
- 1:27:38Speaker 6: have the irs investigating the weed to People Convention by
- 1:27:40Speaker 6: this afternoon. If I'm not careful. Yeah, I'll be back
- 1:27:44Speaker 6: to Obama day fifteen years ago. Holy cow, listen, my friend,
- 1:27:50Speaker 6: my brother. First of all, a great interview and really
- 1:27:54Speaker 6: great points. The problem isn't Thomas Massey is it. The
- 1:27:58Speaker 6: problem is the system we've got. Is that money you know,
- 1:28:03Speaker 6: buys propaganda. You know. I will remind your listeners. In
- 1:28:07Speaker 6: twenty fourteen, the Supreme Court struck down the Ohio law
- 1:28:13Speaker 6: that prohibited line political campaigns.
- 1:28:17Speaker 4: It's free state.
- 1:28:18Speaker 6: They hadn't done that. I don't think that happened at play.
- 1:28:21Speaker 6: Right before I came out. I would have been on
- 1:28:23Speaker 6: the air well.
- 1:28:24Speaker 1: I mean, you can't mean this is the point he made,
- 1:28:26Speaker 1: and they double down on it today. And I've been
- 1:28:28Speaker 1: making the point on his behalf for the whole time.
- 1:28:30Speaker 1: I've been listening to at guy right as. Yes, he
- 1:28:32Speaker 1: voted no, but it was part of a massive bill.
- 1:28:35Speaker 1: If you give him the one line item like border wall,
- 1:28:38Speaker 1: security or abortion, whatever it happens to me, he's going
- 1:28:41Speaker 1: to vote in favor of the way that my most
- 1:28:43Speaker 1: of my listening audience wants. But because there are no
- 1:28:45Speaker 1: standalone bills, these massive omnibus spending bills, you're gonna get
- 1:28:48Speaker 1: a knowe from Massey, because they increase our nation's debt,
- 1:28:51Speaker 1: which is already insurmountable.
- 1:28:54Speaker 6: No, no, I mean again, we don't need less, Thomas Massey.
- 1:28:58Speaker 6: We need more, more cos man, like a couple hundred more.
- 1:29:02Speaker 6: But but the point is, like he pointed out, the
- 1:29:05Speaker 6: military industrial complex, the various you know billionaires and their companies.
- 1:29:11Speaker 6: They don't want that. They don't want that. They got
- 1:29:14Speaker 6: a good thing going, man, six point seven trillion dollars
- 1:29:17Speaker 6: a year going somewhere right into people's pockets, and they
- 1:29:22Speaker 6: don't want to cut spending. And it's just you know,
- 1:29:25Speaker 6: this is why people say to me, well, Tom, how
- 1:29:28Speaker 6: can you know Amy act and be tied with a
- 1:29:30Speaker 6: Bakramaswami or Sharon Brown, be able to compete with John Houston.
- 1:29:35Speaker 6: I want to just spend one hundred million dollars telling
- 1:29:38Speaker 6: people lies you can convince them of. The earth is swat.
- 1:29:42Speaker 6: I mean, it's just like you're talking about the data
- 1:29:43Speaker 6: center issue in the previous half an hour, which I
- 1:29:46Speaker 6: think you took a great position on. No, no, no,
- 1:29:49Speaker 6: look at we can make data centers safe and good
- 1:29:54Speaker 6: for the community if we just look at the details
- 1:29:57Speaker 6: and deal with facts. But you're not in any facts.
- 1:30:01Speaker 6: You're being told it's the end of the world. It's
- 1:30:03Speaker 6: gonna pollute your water, your air, The sound is the problem.
- 1:30:07Speaker 6: It's gonna use your electricity. I heard all this from fracking,
- 1:30:11Speaker 6: from the same people. It's all bull crap. But how
- 1:30:15Speaker 6: do we get through it? And you're doing a fabulous job.
- 1:30:20Speaker 6: And my message to the people of Kentucky is straightforward.
- 1:30:24Speaker 6: These billionaires can spend money, they can print lies, but
- 1:30:29Speaker 6: you decide today. They aren't voting today. You are call
- 1:30:34Speaker 6: your friends, get people out to vote. I mean they
- 1:30:37Speaker 6: vote in democratic races, right, there's a democratic deballot that
- 1:30:40Speaker 6: they could vote. But in a Republican race, Republicans vote.
- 1:30:44Speaker 6: You can decide, not their money. Do your own research,
- 1:30:48Speaker 6: listen with Thomas Massey just said, and get the hell
- 1:30:51Speaker 6: out and make a statement about who you want to
- 1:30:54Speaker 6: represent you. That's the most important thing that's happened today.
- 1:30:58Speaker 6: Don't let them decide. If you turn out numbers, yeah,
- 1:31:02Speaker 6: I think we'll be just fine. I trust the people
- 1:31:04Speaker 6: of Kentucky, I trust the magnamud I trust the patriots.
- 1:31:08Speaker 6: But man, we are in a bad way because money
- 1:31:12Speaker 6: has taken our agency. Brian They've taken away our ability
- 1:31:17Speaker 6: to counter the fact that their lives with facts. They've
- 1:31:21Speaker 6: taken that away, and it scares the hell out of me.
- 1:31:24Speaker 1: Well, I actually, I'm going to put it a different way.
- 1:31:26Speaker 1: I'm not disagreeing with you, Tom Zawistowski from we the
- 1:31:28Speaker 1: people at convention dot org. We by not paying attention,
- 1:31:33Speaker 1: by ignoring what I call it weed dwelling. You don't
- 1:31:36Speaker 1: have to necessarily dwell and weeds to pay attention, Like,
- 1:31:38Speaker 1: for example, Congressom Massey's record. You know what he did
- 1:31:42Speaker 1: in the past, the reasons he voted in for, in
- 1:31:44Speaker 1: favor of, or against it. But if more people knew
- 1:31:47Speaker 1: that at Gowerin's campaign would amount to literally nothing, right.
- 1:31:51Speaker 1: I mean, it's because we don't pay attention that money
- 1:31:54Speaker 1: and influence can come up with this, you know, a
- 1:31:56Speaker 1: lie commercial and it actually sways people. That is, but
- 1:32:00Speaker 1: really irks me more than anything, Tom, that those campaign
- 1:32:03Speaker 1: ads have worked to some degree in favor of.
- 1:32:05Speaker 6: Ed propaganda works. I don't know if I said this
- 1:32:09Speaker 6: to you before, but I had to come up with
- 1:32:11Speaker 6: an idea to create a comic called political AI where
- 1:32:14Speaker 6: I would build software that would help inform people about
- 1:32:18Speaker 6: what their representatives were doing. And one of the things
- 1:32:20Speaker 6: I wanted to develop was a phone app that I
- 1:32:23Speaker 6: was calling the BS Detector, where you could let their
- 1:32:26Speaker 6: phone listen to an AD and then the AI would
- 1:32:29Speaker 6: tell you if it was BS boy.
- 1:32:30Speaker 4: I wish I had one of those today.
- 1:32:32Speaker 1: I'd even give it permissions if I had an app
- 1:32:34Speaker 1: like that, because I'm not an app guy, because I
- 1:32:36Speaker 1: listened to Dave Hatter every Friday. But I actually i'd
- 1:32:39Speaker 1: sign up for that. When tom's Awastwski speaking of way
- 1:32:42Speaker 1: too much money in politics, apparently people have caught on
- 1:32:45Speaker 1: and they're stealing from us. Shocking. There's a lot of fraud,
- 1:32:48Speaker 1: wasted abuse going on most ugly here in Ohio and
- 1:32:51Speaker 1: the Medicaid issues we've got going on that and will
- 1:32:53Speaker 1: Ohio suspend the gas tax? More with Tom z Awastowski
- 1:32:56Speaker 1: and seven forty five right now, if you have KCY
- 1:32:58Speaker 1: talk station in a strong favorable world, fifty five kerc
- 1:33:02Speaker 1: DE talk station, we the People Convention dot orgs where
- 1:33:04Speaker 1: you find tom's Awastowski and I recommended to do so.
- 1:33:07Speaker 1: Tom joins the program every week talk about some really
- 1:33:09Speaker 1: important issues. As we pivot over to the Medicaid scandal,
- 1:33:13Speaker 1: Tom the Daily Wire blew the lid off this, I
- 1:33:15Speaker 1: think probably better than anybody else. But we've kind of
- 1:33:17Speaker 1: had rumblings of fraud waste abuse in the Medicaid system
- 1:33:20Speaker 1: for a long time now. Keith Faber, I pinked at
- 1:33:23Speaker 1: an ond back in twenty twenty four and found all
- 1:33:25Speaker 1: kinds of problems and what is with And this is
- 1:33:27Speaker 1: the point I wanted to make the electronic visit verification,
- 1:33:30Speaker 1: which apparently is a new thing here in the state
- 1:33:32Speaker 1: of Ohio. Wasn't that mandated in earlier congressional legislation that
- 1:33:37Speaker 1: you had to do electronic verification when individuals were providing
- 1:33:41Speaker 1: like home service to their own family members under Medicaid?
- 1:33:45Speaker 6: Yeah, it was.
- 1:33:46Speaker 1: And so where in a hell, where in the hell
- 1:33:49Speaker 1: was Ohio who turned it off? And under what right
- 1:33:51Speaker 1: did they have to turn it off since the law
- 1:33:53Speaker 1: required it?
- 1:33:54Speaker 6: Tom right, And so the focus is on Mike the
- 1:33:58Speaker 6: Wine and his appointed people, you know, in these various agencies.
- 1:34:04Speaker 6: If you listen, you know, to Matt Hussman. I mean,
- 1:34:07Speaker 6: he just came right out and said that the legislature
- 1:34:10Speaker 6: had passed like eleven different bills to fix this, to
- 1:34:14Speaker 6: make sure these things weren't happening, and the Wine vetoed
- 1:34:18Speaker 6: all of them. How do you how do you not
- 1:34:21Speaker 6: have blame when they tried to fix it and you
- 1:34:24Speaker 6: stopped them.
- 1:34:25Speaker 1: Well, more fundamentally, why did he stop it? Is there
- 1:34:32Speaker 1: an answer to that?
- 1:34:34Speaker 6: Yeah? Remember when President Trump at the State of the
- 1:34:36Speaker 6: Union asked people representatives if your job is to represent
- 1:34:41Speaker 6: the American people instead of foreigners, and none of the
- 1:34:44Speaker 6: Democrats stood up.
- 1:34:45Speaker 1: Yep.
- 1:34:46Speaker 6: Yeah, Well, Mike the Wines not standing up? Is he
- 1:34:49Speaker 6: He's also behind the Haitians in Stringfield. He's He's been
- 1:34:53Speaker 6: on this side of the the illegals for decades and
- 1:34:58Speaker 6: now I think it's finally catching up to him because
- 1:35:01Speaker 6: he cares more about them than he does about us.
- 1:35:04Speaker 6: This is no small amount of money. This is a
- 1:35:07Speaker 6: billion dollars minimum, and now we got the DOJ coming
- 1:35:11Speaker 6: in this coming week to start investing. There's going to
- 1:35:15Speaker 6: be people arrested, and it's not gonna be a few
- 1:35:18Speaker 6: people because people have known this and they didn't do anything,
- 1:35:23Speaker 6: just like in Minneapolis. Just like in Minnesota, just like
- 1:35:27Speaker 6: in Maine. This is an issue, Brian, I'm telling you
- 1:35:30Speaker 6: in the election this November. Yes, I think fraud is
- 1:35:34Speaker 6: going to be as big of an issue as illegal
- 1:35:36Speaker 6: immigration was in twenty twenty four because it affects every
- 1:35:40Speaker 6: one of us, and I got news for every one
- 1:35:43Speaker 6: of us. It's happening everywhere, not just Thrue States, not
- 1:35:47Speaker 6: just Red States. It's in your local community. And I'll
- 1:35:50Speaker 6: say county prosecutors are going to be involved in this
- 1:35:53Speaker 6: because they've known about a lot of.
- 1:35:54Speaker 4: This and done nothing.
- 1:35:57Speaker 1: Well. One of many government programs we can point to
- 1:35:59Speaker 1: that are ridden with fraud, brace and abuse. You know,
- 1:36:01Speaker 1: it's one of the things I talk with tech Friday's
- 1:36:03Speaker 1: Day of Hatter. If software developers focused upfront on security,
- 1:36:08Speaker 1: we'd have a lot less problems we have with these
- 1:36:10Speaker 1: Internet of Things devices. No, they just want to get
- 1:36:12Speaker 1: something out into market. If our elected officials cared more
- 1:36:15Speaker 1: about the taxpayer dollars in preventing fraud, waste, and abuse, gee,
- 1:36:18Speaker 1: something like electronic verification, they might put that into legislation
- 1:36:22Speaker 1: and require states to do it so we aren't ripped off. Question,
- 1:36:25Speaker 1: how can states get rid of the obligation to do it?
- 1:36:28Speaker 1: I guess they just do whatever the hell they want.
- 1:36:29Speaker 6: Tom and see and again, it's simple things. When I
- 1:36:33Speaker 6: was a young man, I worked as a security guard
- 1:36:36Speaker 6: in like manufacturing plants, and I used to have to
- 1:36:39Speaker 6: turn a key at each door to show that I
- 1:36:42Speaker 6: checked it and I did my rounds. That's all this is.
- 1:36:45Speaker 6: When you hear electronic verification, it sounds so fancy. It's
- 1:36:47Speaker 6: like a time clock. For those of you old enough
- 1:36:50Speaker 6: like me. What it basically says is, Okay, we're going
- 1:36:52Speaker 6: to pay you to take care of this senior citizen
- 1:36:55Speaker 6: who can't take care of themselves. But you've got to
- 1:36:58Speaker 6: have GPS on the phone that says I'm at their house.
- 1:37:01Speaker 1: Yeah, and I got here at.
- 1:37:03Speaker 6: Eleven o'clock and I left at four o'clock. That's all
- 1:37:06Speaker 6: it is. Why would we turn that off?
- 1:37:09Speaker 1: And you know, giant red flag to double down on
- 1:37:11Speaker 1: the reality is going on in Ohio. How in the
- 1:37:13Speaker 1: hell is it that so many of these agencies could
- 1:37:17Speaker 1: have the same damn address and the vast majority of
- 1:37:19Speaker 1: the payments and it went into Franklin County alone. Huh,
- 1:37:23Speaker 1: nothing to see there? You would think statistically that is
- 1:37:25Speaker 1: so unlikely to happen that immediately will be a flag
- 1:37:28Speaker 1: for fraud, waste and views.
- 1:37:30Speaker 6: Well, this is what I'm saying. They've institutionalized it. This
- 1:37:34Speaker 6: isn't like a couple people or some individuals figuring out
- 1:37:37Speaker 6: how to scam a program. This is literally the Somalis
- 1:37:41Speaker 6: and other group. Heck, you know Russian actors, people from
- 1:37:45Speaker 6: foreign countries have been able to figure out where the
- 1:37:48Speaker 6: flaws are and then they like print a manual and
- 1:37:51Speaker 6: then a recruited army of people that do it. And
- 1:37:53Speaker 6: that's why you have whole buildings in Columbus full of
- 1:37:56Speaker 6: the same people doing the same scam just like we
- 1:37:59Speaker 6: don't have any ready to text that why not?
- 1:38:02Speaker 1: Just like Minnesota. It's scary, it's but you know what,
- 1:38:05Speaker 1: I'm with you all day long. This is the American
- 1:38:07Speaker 1: people taxpayer dollars. Whether they come from Republican pockets or
- 1:38:11Speaker 1: Democrat pockets or anybody, they should all have a keen
- 1:38:14Speaker 1: interest in preventing people from ripping us off. Collectively. That
- 1:38:18Speaker 1: is an issue that I hope is the biggest issue
- 1:38:20Speaker 1: for November and we get the vote on it, Cuz
- 1:38:23Speaker 1: I know it's side of the political ledger. I'm on
- 1:38:24Speaker 1: Tom and I know I am against all of this fraud,
- 1:38:27Speaker 1: wasted abuse. Someone else out there has to be too.
- 1:38:29Speaker 1: We the People Convention dot org be the People Convention
- 1:38:32Speaker 1: dot org. Find Tom there and check out his podcast
- 1:38:34Speaker 1: weekly and tune into the fifty five Carsey Morning Show
- 1:38:37Speaker 1: on a Tuesday at seven thirty you'll hear Tom. Tom
- 1:38:39Speaker 1: will talk next week. Keep up the great work, my friend.
- 1:38:42Speaker 4: Thanks part.
- 1:38:43Speaker 6: Get her out the vote, Kentucky, Get out the vote.
- 1:38:45Speaker 1: Get out the vote. Arlean's on the line, Arleae, if
- 1:38:48Speaker 1: you hold on over the brake. We had Tom in
- 1:38:49Speaker 1: this segment. I'll be happy to take your call out
- 1:38:51Speaker 1: for the top of the our news. Everybody else feel
- 1:38:52Speaker 1: free to call. We got some time before we get
- 1:38:54Speaker 1: to right the Daniel Davis Deep Dive at a thirty
- 1:38:58Speaker 1: break back, we put the app ato pot here. Ififty
- 1:39:04Speaker 1: about KRCD Talk station. Happy election day. Polls are open
- 1:39:08Speaker 1: Northern Kentucky. Of course, it was an honor having Congressman
- 1:39:11Speaker 1: Massey on the program at the last hour. Talked for
- 1:39:13Speaker 1: a foot full half hour and appreciate his willingness to
- 1:39:16Speaker 1: come on the show. And we do have Bradley Jay
- 1:39:18Speaker 1: for the inside scoop with bright Bart News. It wasn't
- 1:39:20Speaker 1: on the rundown, but Bradley's ready to talk about the elections.
- 1:39:23Speaker 1: But I promised Arlene so Shade and Jim hold I
- 1:39:26Speaker 1: promised Arlene I take her call. Arlene, thank you for
- 1:39:28Speaker 1: holding over the break and welcome to the Morning Show.
- 1:39:31Speaker 11: Thank you, Brian. I wanted to say that I think
- 1:39:36Speaker 11: that the people in Massey's district, like myself, have lost
- 1:39:43Speaker 11: a voice. My vote isn't hers. I mean, I admire
- 1:39:50Speaker 11: Massey for his principles. I've always voted for him in
- 1:39:53Speaker 11: the past. I've worked every one of his campaigns, but
- 1:39:57Speaker 11: I've never gotten a reply to my monthly emails to him.
- 1:40:02Speaker 11: I have gotten a form letter like everyone else gets,
- 1:40:05Speaker 11: but I don't know how I've gone to his rally.
- 1:40:08Speaker 11: I never have a chance to say, Representative Massey, would
- 1:40:13Speaker 11: you please bring up this topic? Would you please address this?
- 1:40:17Speaker 11: I mean, I do admire the man, but I feel
- 1:40:20Speaker 11: like for the last fourteen years, I have no voice
- 1:40:23Speaker 11: in Congress, and I think yourself and people other people
- 1:40:28Speaker 11: in Ohio, Indiana, any state, they are putting a nail
- 1:40:32Speaker 11: in his coffin two because your representatives have not backed
- 1:40:37Speaker 11: up his attempts to do anything about the budget.
- 1:40:42Speaker 1: Warren Davidson has I mean, you know you have fiscal thoughts,
- 1:40:45Speaker 1: david I have heard dated Okay, well there's one other people.
- 1:40:49Speaker 11: Okay.
- 1:40:49Speaker 1: Honestly, you know, I know Warren Davidson, Arlene, and I
- 1:40:52Speaker 1: know Warren Davidson pretty well. And honestly, it's a sad, sorry,
- 1:40:55Speaker 1: state of affairs when you don't hear back from your
- 1:40:57Speaker 1: congress person. But you, you and I and everybody else
- 1:41:00Speaker 1: that has an elected official kind of all the same
- 1:41:02Speaker 1: shared experience as you are, Lene. They don't have time
- 1:41:05Speaker 1: to respond to individual letters regularly, So any the extent
- 1:41:09Speaker 1: you feel you don't have a voice with Congress from Massy,
- 1:41:11Speaker 1: you know, all I can see is I don't know
- 1:41:13Speaker 1: what you see and get ed Gollrain. I don't know
- 1:41:15Speaker 1: who he is or what he even stands for because
- 1:41:18Speaker 1: he doesn't have the cajon hes to even sit down
- 1:41:20Speaker 1: and debate Congress from Massie in spite of the fact
- 1:41:22Speaker 1: that he was asked to multiple times. He wouldn't come
- 1:41:24Speaker 1: on the morning show to discuss his platform individually with me,
- 1:41:27Speaker 1: inspite of being asked six times. So you know, welcome
- 1:41:31Speaker 1: to the shared experience we all have with politicians. I
- 1:41:34Speaker 1: appreciate your call, Arlene, I certainly do, and I appreciate
- 1:41:36Speaker 1: you holding over the break. I hear your frustration. I
- 1:41:38Speaker 1: can't deny it. Welcome to the world of politics and
- 1:41:42Speaker 1: somebody that knows all about politics. Breit Bart b R
- 1:41:44Speaker 1: E I t b A Art politics editor Bradley Jay.
- 1:41:47Speaker 1: Welcome back to the Morning show, sir. It's a pleasure
- 1:41:48Speaker 1: to have you on.
- 1:41:50Speaker 2: It is always great to be with you.
- 1:41:52Speaker 1: Happy Tuesday, Happy Tuesday. Right back at you. Following the
- 1:41:55Speaker 1: uh Massy gallrain race by the chance, Bradley, Wait what race?
- 1:42:01Speaker 2: Yeah, I've been following that. Well, it just does a
- 1:42:04Speaker 2: little bit. Man.
- 1:42:06Speaker 14: That's a hum dinger, isn't it. It's coming down to
- 1:42:08Speaker 14: the wire.
- 1:42:10Speaker 2: It's a big one.
- 1:42:11Speaker 14: That's all everybody's talking about in Washington.
- 1:42:13Speaker 2: I think, well, I don't know which way it's gonna go.
- 1:42:17Speaker 14: It looks like it might be a coin flip right now,
- 1:42:19Speaker 14: but either way, it's gonna have a big repercussions, not
- 1:42:22Speaker 14: just here in Washington, but also and what kind of
- 1:42:24Speaker 14: representation the folks in northern Kentucky you're gonna have.
- 1:42:27Speaker 1: And I know Breitbart are real staunch Trump supporters, and
- 1:42:29Speaker 1: I've seen some negative comments on Breitbart about Congressman Massing
- 1:42:33Speaker 1: and everybody's entitled their own opinion, but there's some firm
- 1:42:35Speaker 1: conviction people in the fourth District in Kentucky, and you know,
- 1:42:39Speaker 1: time and time again they keep bringing back Congressman Massing.
- 1:42:42Speaker 1: I think he represents what the will of they collectively are,
- 1:42:45Speaker 1: which is someone who has principle, stands on them, believes
- 1:42:48Speaker 1: in the Constitution of the United States of America and
- 1:42:49Speaker 1: the words that are in it. So yeah, he bucks
- 1:42:52Speaker 1: the trend and bucks the system, but he stands as
- 1:42:54Speaker 1: a thorn in every other person's side who doesn't pay
- 1:42:57Speaker 1: attention to the bottom line, fital responsibility or the words
- 1:43:00Speaker 1: of the Constitution. So I think it's one of the
- 1:43:02Speaker 1: reasons I just love my Northern Kentucky voters.
- 1:43:07Speaker 14: Yeah, and Luke, I totally understand what you're saying. They
- 1:43:13Speaker 14: say that politics is the art of the possible. Massey
- 1:43:18Speaker 14: to The big problem to me with Massey is that
- 1:43:22Speaker 14: he doesn't want anything. Massey has no intention of being productive.
- 1:43:28Speaker 14: He never offers any serious proposals or reaches for any
- 1:43:33Speaker 14: levers that are actually at his disposal to move the
- 1:43:35Speaker 14: needle on these things he claims to care about. He's
- 1:43:38Speaker 14: a member of Congress. Congress, he's not a member of media.
- 1:43:41Speaker 14: He can actually do something to solve these problems. But
- 1:43:46Speaker 14: his vote is never achievable on all these issues, on
- 1:43:49Speaker 14: these funding bills that will fund President's agenda. On the
- 1:43:53Speaker 14: one big beautiful bill that was not but it was
- 1:43:57Speaker 14: the encapsulation of every sea campaign promised just about that
- 1:44:01Speaker 14: President Trump had. He was a no, and he didn't
- 1:44:05Speaker 14: even want anything. He didn't offer anything for his vote.
- 1:44:10Speaker 14: His vote wasn't achievable. The White House has stopped working
- 1:44:13Speaker 14: with him because they know they've come to the or
- 1:44:15Speaker 14: they've come to the inclusion, the conclusion that he just
- 1:44:18Speaker 14: wants attention. He doesn't want to seriously work with them
- 1:44:22Speaker 14: to pass any legislation. He just he likes to be contrarian,
- 1:44:26Speaker 14: to make himself feel like the smartest guy in the room.
- 1:44:29Speaker 14: He claims he's a purist and that Congress is irredeemable
- 1:44:33Speaker 14: and that he's the only member of Congress is any good.
- 1:44:36Speaker 14: And then he goes and fundraises twenty four to seven
- 1:44:39Speaker 14: so that he can remain a member of it. Well,
- 1:44:40Speaker 14: he wouldn't have I mean, he wouldn't have had to
- 1:44:42Speaker 14: do that bill seems like a fraud.
- 1:44:45Speaker 1: Well, Brad, he wouldn't have had to raise all that money.
- 1:44:47Speaker 1: If the multi billionaires had to pour bill millions and
- 1:44:50Speaker 1: millions of dollars against him and voting for Ed Gollrain.
- 1:44:53Speaker 1: We don't even know who Ed is. He wouldn't debate.
- 1:44:56Speaker 1: He's a mystery to everyone. I mean, the only thing
- 1:44:58Speaker 1: Donald Trump has been able to say abo And he's
- 1:45:00Speaker 1: a great guy. He's got a firm handshake, and he's
- 1:45:02Speaker 1: got a central casting. And as so far as Massy
- 1:45:04Speaker 1: not doing anything, just go back if you had didn't
- 1:45:06Speaker 1: get a chance to listen to my interview with because
- 1:45:08Speaker 1: I had a Congressman Massy on for a half hour
- 1:45:10Speaker 1: beginning at seven oh five. The podcast will be a
- 1:45:12Speaker 1: fifty five Casey dot Com. I think he made some
- 1:45:14Speaker 1: points that are contrary to what your position is relative
- 1:45:17Speaker 1: to Massy, But I didn't ask for an argument with you,
- 1:45:20Speaker 1: Bradley about it. But the folks in my listening audience
- 1:45:23Speaker 1: are fully aware of the of where Massy stands on
- 1:45:26Speaker 1: the various issues and what he is in favor of
- 1:45:29Speaker 1: and what he has been able to accomplish as a congressman.
- 1:45:31Speaker 1: What are the other races you're looking at in the today,
- 1:45:34Speaker 1: are Bradley.
- 1:45:37Speaker 14: Well, that's definitely a big one coming out of the
- 1:45:41Speaker 14: Louisiana yesterday or is you me this weekend? I mean,
- 1:45:44Speaker 14: Trump is He's riding pretty high right now. He defeated
- 1:45:49Speaker 14: Bill Cassidy with Julia Letlowe and State Treasurer. Cassidy didn't
- 1:45:53Speaker 14: even get a quarter. This is an incumbent senator. He
- 1:45:56Speaker 14: did not even get a quarter of the vote in
- 1:45:59Speaker 14: the primary and is going to miss the runoff.
- 1:46:02Speaker 2: That's really wild.
- 1:46:03Speaker 1: Didn't he vote to impeach Trump?
- 1:46:05Speaker 2: Though he did? He did?
- 1:46:08Speaker 6: Uh?
- 1:46:08Speaker 1: And and that's back to hole.
- 1:46:12Speaker 14: It wasn't just that he's he's continued to I mean, look,
- 1:46:16Speaker 14: he's not somebody who I mean, he's definitely one of
- 1:46:19Speaker 14: those old guard Republicans.
- 1:46:22Speaker 2: You know, why can't we all get along?
- 1:46:24Speaker 14: Who wants to lock arms with Democrats even as they're
- 1:46:27Speaker 14: trying to trans your kindergarten and and not not.
- 1:46:31Speaker 2: Tell you about it?
- 1:46:32Speaker 6: Uh?
- 1:46:33Speaker 14: Some some people just they get they get, especially these
- 1:46:36Speaker 14: folks who and and honestly why this is one reason
- 1:46:38Speaker 14: why I've started over the years to come around to
- 1:46:41Speaker 14: term limits. These folks get so locked into the battles
- 1:46:44Speaker 14: of yesteryear that even as like the the the dynamics change,
- 1:46:49Speaker 14: even as the battlefield changes, they're still locked into these
- 1:46:52Speaker 14: old wars, and they don't realize how much things have changed.
- 1:46:56Speaker 2: Uh.
- 1:46:56Speaker 14: Cassy's gone, whoever replaces him will be better than what
- 1:47:01Speaker 14: came before him.
- 1:47:02Speaker 1: Uh. But but more to.
- 1:47:04Speaker 14: Your question, Yeah, there are some there are some other
- 1:47:07Speaker 14: races today as an Alabama and I'm looking to Alabama
- 1:47:10Speaker 14: Senate race. Coach Tuberville is gonna waltz to the waltz
- 1:47:15Speaker 14: to the governor's race.
- 1:47:17Speaker 3: There.
- 1:47:18Speaker 14: There's some congressional races around. We've also started early voting
- 1:47:22Speaker 14: in Texas. There's that big Texas Senate Republican primary runoff
- 1:47:26Speaker 14: between Ken Paxton and uh uh John Cornyn.
- 1:47:32Speaker 2: Uh that that's gonna.
- 1:47:34Speaker 14: Be a humdinger as well. The election day for that
- 1:47:38Speaker 14: is next week. But there's a lot of pieces moving
- 1:47:40Speaker 14: around here. Uh and and definitely some some races to watch.
- 1:47:45Speaker 13: Uh.
- 1:47:45Speaker 14: It's while that we're already in primary season, but we
- 1:47:48Speaker 14: are in the thick of it now.
- 1:47:49Speaker 1: Right part Politics Editor Bradley jay I, Listen, I am
- 1:47:52Speaker 1: really hopeful that November there will be one big dominant
- 1:47:56Speaker 1: issue for all the parties to deal with, and that's
- 1:47:59Speaker 1: fraud wasting. I mean, we found in Minnesota, what we're
- 1:48:02Speaker 1: finding in Ohio. What we're finding in multiple other states,
- 1:48:04Speaker 1: Medicaid is a huge problem other government spending programs. It
- 1:48:08Speaker 1: seems to me that the genies out of the bottle
- 1:48:10Speaker 1: on our government's inability to track our federal taxpayer dollars
- 1:48:14Speaker 1: on where they end up. Do you think that issue
- 1:48:17Speaker 1: has legs and traction? Where we are we going to
- 1:48:19Speaker 1: see some reform? Is the money going to stop flowing
- 1:48:22Speaker 1: out the door unregulated? Will that be an issue? Bradley Jay,
- 1:48:27Speaker 1: Maybe I'm cynical.
- 1:48:28Speaker 14: I want to see people in handcuffed. I do until
- 1:48:30Speaker 14: that happens. I just look, the administration is doing all
- 1:48:35Speaker 14: the right things they have been saying that. Look, it's
- 1:48:38Speaker 14: going to take months sometimes to put some of these
- 1:48:39Speaker 14: big cases together. Fine, okay, I'd like to see people
- 1:48:43Speaker 14: in jail today, but it needs, like we need to
- 1:48:47Speaker 14: see mass arrest for I think this to be to
- 1:48:51Speaker 14: be really stopped and for it to stop going forward
- 1:48:54Speaker 14: so that other people don't continue to perpetuate these these
- 1:48:58Speaker 14: kinds of schemes. There needs to be a disincentive so that.
- 1:49:02Speaker 2: They know that they're going to jail.
- 1:49:03Speaker 14: The problem is that we have so many of these
- 1:49:06Speaker 14: immigrants from who just come in mass and such lord
- 1:49:09Speaker 14: numbers that there's no reason for them to assimilate. They
- 1:49:12Speaker 14: just live in their own little areas that their in
- 1:49:14Speaker 14: their own little communities, like these Somalians in all these
- 1:49:17Speaker 14: different states, like they came from Somalia. I mean, prison
- 1:49:21Speaker 14: here is better than living in Somalia.
- 1:49:24Speaker 15: Uh So, so I'm really you say the genies that
- 1:49:30Speaker 15: bottle and I know exactly what you need. But this
- 1:49:34Speaker 15: is a this is such a significant problem that it
- 1:49:38Speaker 15: really might take years to address. Trumps shown at times
- 1:49:41Speaker 15: that he can that he can reverse that kind of
- 1:49:45Speaker 15: conventional thinking, but it's going to take an administration wide effort.
- 1:49:49Speaker 15: We are seeing right now what needs to be done
- 1:49:52Speaker 15: the early stages of that.
- 1:49:54Speaker 1: That they've got to land a plane, right Bard Politics

- 1:51:12Speaker 1: if you're an eligible voter in the City of Cincinnata.
- 1:51:14Speaker 1: Signed a petition requiring council member majorities to actually have
- 1:51:18Speaker 1: a say in the hiring and firing of police and
- 1:51:20Speaker 1: fire chiefs. So that's a great idea, and I encourage
- 1:51:24Speaker 1: people to stop by Jim and Jackson day to sign
- 1:51:25Speaker 1: on to that. Wendy, I thank you so much for
- 1:51:28Speaker 1: holding and I appreciate you calling today.
- 1:51:30Speaker 6: Welcome Ryan.
- 1:51:33Speaker 16: I want to tell you that I'm getting ready to
- 1:51:35Speaker 16: go vote, so I won't keep you long, and I'm
- 1:51:37Speaker 16: going to vote for Thomas Mathy. Now I love Trump
- 1:51:40Speaker 16: and not campaign for Trump, but there's a fox in
- 1:51:43Speaker 16: the henhouse. I think maybe a little pride with President
- 1:51:47Speaker 16: Trump because Matsy voted against the Big Bill. But Matsey
- 1:51:51Speaker 16: had a reason. I called him and he talks to you.
- 1:51:54Speaker 16: He's always been very open and the door and the
- 1:51:57Speaker 16: phone is open to him. He's a good and Gallerian
- 1:52:01Speaker 16: is being supported by the Democrats. What do you know
- 1:52:04Speaker 16: about Gallerini nothing because he won't tell you exactly, Brian,
- 1:52:08Speaker 16: and he's evil, evil, evil. I belonged to the Tea Party.
- 1:52:12Speaker 16: I have found them to do a lot of good
- 1:52:15Speaker 16: vetting on all the candidates, and they are crazy about
- 1:52:18Speaker 16: Thomas Massey and they know he's a good man. So
- 1:52:21Speaker 16: I'm trying to get the word out. Don't listen to
- 1:52:23Speaker 16: these terrible advertisements. And unfortunately I'm going to have to
- 1:52:28Speaker 16: disagree with President Trump. I've called him four times in
- 1:52:31Speaker 16: the last four two weeks, and you speak to his
- 1:52:34Speaker 16: assistance that I tried to explain to him that he's
- 1:52:37Speaker 16: being taken for a fool. So, Brian, you're doing a
- 1:52:40Speaker 16: great job supporting Thomas Masthy. Please keep it up all
- 1:52:44Speaker 16: day so people will change their mind. Pray before you vote,
- 1:52:48Speaker 16: ask God for wisdom and so you can make the
- 1:52:51Speaker 16: correct vote. And it's not Gallerian, it's Thomas Massey.
- 1:52:56Speaker 4: Thank you so.
- 1:52:56Speaker 1: Much, thank you for calling, and thank you for the
- 1:52:59Speaker 1: impassion plea. And I agree with you completely. This corresponsibility,
- 1:53:02Speaker 1: limited government, free market. I think that pretty much sums
- 1:53:05Speaker 1: up Congressman Thomas Massey. This responsibility, limited government, free markets.
- 1:53:10Speaker 1: Remember the Tea Party, I do see what Jim's got.
- 1:53:13Speaker 1: He's got a different topic to talk about. Jim, thanks
- 1:53:15Speaker 1: for calling this morning. Welcome to the Morning Show.
- 1:53:18Speaker 13: Good morning, Brian. I would have to hunt to totally
- 1:53:22Speaker 13: agree with Wendy, And I'm sorry that Thomas is not
- 1:53:27Speaker 13: my my representative, and I wish we had four hundred
- 1:53:31Speaker 13: and thirty five Thomas masses and in Congress we wouldn't
- 1:53:34Speaker 13: have the problems we got. But I'm calling you about
- 1:53:38Speaker 13: you talked about oil and gas with somebody yesterday. Slim
- 1:53:43Speaker 13: Buck had several have had several experts in the field
- 1:53:46Speaker 13: on over the last several weeks because of the gas
- 1:53:49Speaker 13: crisis we have or the high gas prices, and they've
- 1:53:53Speaker 13: been explaining that, yeah, we do produce a lot. You know,
- 1:53:56Speaker 13: we're exporting oil, but we're exporting a sweet light oil
- 1:54:03Speaker 13: and what we do in our in our refineries is
- 1:54:08Speaker 13: heavy sour oil. And we could be doing that, but
- 1:54:11Speaker 13: of course the environmental lacos stand in the way of
- 1:54:14Speaker 13: us building plants, yes, well, refineries that would refine the
- 1:54:18Speaker 13: oil that we produce. So that's part of the problem.
- 1:54:20Speaker 13: It's a it's a commodity, so it's you know, we
- 1:54:23Speaker 13: can't charge fifty million dollars over in Saudi Arabia and
- 1:54:27Speaker 13: then and without our people shipping, we're over there to
- 1:54:31Speaker 13: gain more money here.
- 1:54:32Speaker 1: Yeah, it's a simple question of fundamental economics supplying to man.
- 1:54:35Speaker 1: If you have we have all the oil in the world,
- 1:54:37Speaker 1: we just don't have the refining capacity to do it
- 1:54:39Speaker 1: right here in our own backyard. Yes, because of the
- 1:54:41Speaker 1: environmental regulations is standing in the way, NIMBI lawsuits. We
- 1:54:44Speaker 1: could go on and on. You're dead right on that, Jim.
- 1:54:47Speaker 1: Appreciate the call, my friend. Eight twenty five. If you've

- 1:55:32Speaker 1: see my friend. I have the privilege to be able
- 1:55:34Speaker 1: to see your shining, smiling face. And boy, we don't
- 1:55:37Speaker 1: have any to talk about today, do we, Daniel Davis,
- 1:55:40Speaker 1: Wait a second.
- 1:55:41Speaker 17: I mean, there are some things. I guess.
- 1:55:44Speaker 1: Let us start with ro On. I guess based upon
- 1:55:48Speaker 1: Donald Trump's own words, today was the day the bombs
- 1:55:50Speaker 1: were going to start dripping. I think polling market had
- 1:55:52Speaker 1: to be over and under on that one. But we
- 1:55:54Speaker 1: wake up and find out no. Apparently he had got
- 1:55:56Speaker 1: the request from some of the golf allies United Arab
- 1:55:59Speaker 1: Emirates out your to hold off, wait for it, We're
- 1:56:02Speaker 1: going to negotiate something. He said. Well, the countries have
- 1:56:05Speaker 1: come to me and they've said we're getting ready to
- 1:56:06Speaker 1: do a vader very major tac tomorrow. But put it.
- 1:56:09Speaker 1: I put it off for a little while. Hopefully maybe forever,
- 1:56:11Speaker 1: but possibly for a little while, because we've had very
- 1:56:13Speaker 1: big discussions with Iran and we'll see what they amount to.
- 1:56:17Speaker 1: You're Tea Lea freading on whether these discussions will bear
- 1:56:20Speaker 1: any fruit. Daniel Davis given the Iranians absolute outright rejection
- 1:56:24Speaker 1: up until this moment of time, and every single demand
- 1:56:26Speaker 1: President Trump has presented it with, sir, well, I.
- 1:56:29Speaker 17: Mean other than what you said. I mean, shirt sounds
- 1:56:31Speaker 17: bad when you put it like that, but yeah, that's
- 1:56:35Speaker 17: exactly the situation we're in. And obviously this is not
- 1:56:38Speaker 17: the first time we've been down this road where President
- 1:56:40Speaker 17: Trump says he's paused the war or paused his bombing,
- 1:56:44Speaker 17: or paused a operate a project freedom in the Persian gold,
- 1:56:48Speaker 17: et cetera. And every time the other side said, what
- 1:56:51Speaker 17: are you talking about? We didn't agree to anything. We're
- 1:56:53Speaker 17: not even talking other than these lists of demand related
- 1:56:58Speaker 17: and that's the case we're in right now. Almost immediately
- 1:57:00Speaker 17: after that, the Raatis said, there's no negotiations here. We're
- 1:57:04Speaker 17: passing things back along with some intermediaries, but to reiterate
- 1:57:07Speaker 17: our positions, we have not given in on anything. And
- 1:57:10Speaker 17: yet President Trump said in a fresh conference subsequent to
- 1:57:15Speaker 17: issuing his true social that he said, yeah, I think
- 1:57:17Speaker 17: we're really close to an agreement. And unfortunately he said
- 1:57:19Speaker 17: that a bunch of times throughout this time, that they've
- 1:57:22Speaker 17: already agreed to this and that, and then the urate
- 1:57:25Speaker 17: insight always comes back and says, no, we haven't agreed
- 1:57:27Speaker 17: to anything other than demanded of you, which amount to what,
- 1:57:31Speaker 17: frankly surrender. And President posiski In came out afterwards and
- 1:57:36Speaker 17: reiterated the same thing. Several other people did so across
- 1:57:39Speaker 17: the board. The urin insights says, I don't know what
- 1:57:40Speaker 17: he's talking about. That's not what we've agreed to.
- 1:57:43Speaker 1: All right, assuming the status quo remains the status quo
- 1:57:46Speaker 1: as it has been now since the so called ceasefire
- 1:57:48Speaker 1: went into, let's walk through what seems to be an
- 1:57:52Speaker 1: inevitable scenario. So the status quo remains, that's not good
- 1:57:54Speaker 1: enough for Trump. He doesn't get what he wants when
- 1:57:56Speaker 1: we start throwing additional rockets and bombs. I don't know
- 1:57:59Speaker 1: if it means boots on the grounds, But are we
- 1:58:02Speaker 1: in a better position now from a military perspective to
- 1:58:05Speaker 1: achieve whatever it is we're hoping to achieve? There? After
- 1:58:09Speaker 1: this passage of time, I've read quite a few comments
- 1:58:12Speaker 1: from military analysts saying, oh, we've been gathering up a
- 1:58:15Speaker 1: lot of additional intelligence. We know more now about where
- 1:58:18Speaker 1: all of these mystery bases are, and these drone manufacturing facilities,
- 1:58:22Speaker 1: and where the swift boats might be parked or kept.
- 1:58:24Speaker 1: We know where these military targets are. And then there's
- 1:58:26Speaker 1: also that growing concern that this military operation of it
- 1:58:29Speaker 1: moves forward, is going to start bombing the civilian related targets.
- 1:58:33Speaker 1: What that means in the scope of that remains to
- 1:58:35Speaker 1: be seen. But do you see us at least militarily
- 1:58:38Speaker 1: now better than we were, say, six weeks ago, Daniel Davis.
- 1:58:43Speaker 17: No zero chance. And listen, it's not like we suddenly
- 1:58:47Speaker 17: discovered where these underground bunkers are or where these fast
- 1:58:50Speaker 17: boats are located. We've known that for decades, I mean known.
- 1:58:53Speaker 17: It's hard for them to build a lot of these
- 1:58:55Speaker 17: things without knowing. And you see a lot of things
- 1:58:57Speaker 17: that came out. I think it was a Wall Street
- 1:59:00Speaker 17: New York Times, CNN. Several people done a lot of analysis,
- 1:59:04Speaker 17: and they've said that even these thirty three bases that
- 1:59:07Speaker 17: we know of, meaning we know of them and we
- 1:59:09Speaker 17: were not able to take them out before. And now
- 1:59:12Speaker 17: you have restocked your inventory, so you have a bunch
- 1:59:15Speaker 17: of more missiles that you had the first time. Why
- 1:59:18Speaker 17: does anybody think that you're going to have any more
- 1:59:19Speaker 17: success hitting a granite mountain than you had the first
- 1:59:23Speaker 17: time with the same ordinance. So you may be able
- 1:59:26Speaker 17: to shut off some of the doors of some of
- 1:59:29Speaker 17: the exit ramps of some of these underground missile facilities
- 1:59:31Speaker 17: that they have engineering units that are designed and did
- 1:59:34Speaker 17: during the first forty days to make them reaccessible again.
- 1:59:37Speaker 17: So you're not going to succeed the second time on
- 1:59:40Speaker 17: the same target with the same ordinance that you did
- 1:59:43Speaker 17: the first time. And then, of course the biggest issue
- 1:59:46Speaker 17: is not what you can destroy but what they can
- 1:59:49Speaker 17: retaliate against. And they have been unequivocal and repetitive here
- 1:59:52Speaker 17: of late to say, if you strike anything else, we
- 1:59:56Speaker 17: are going to hit targets that we have not fired at.
- 2:00:02Speaker 17: Is the energy systems, the oil production facilities, poplines, and
- 2:00:07Speaker 17: water treatment facility, is desalinization plants, which are vital for
- 2:00:11Speaker 17: literal survival of any of these regimes in a region.
- 2:00:14Speaker 17: So the military thing is, if you go down that
- 2:00:18Speaker 17: path it's a duel. It's double head set it side
- 2:00:20Speaker 17: of coin there. You don't get to just hit them
- 2:00:23Speaker 17: and a trip them. It's a two way straight and
- 2:00:25Speaker 17: so when you launch your first one, you've got to
- 2:00:27Speaker 17: be prepared for whatever follows next. And if you can't
- 2:00:30Speaker 17: do that, then you can't take step one. That's part
- 2:00:33Speaker 17: of the analysis that's missing and is absolutely vital.
- 2:00:36Speaker 1: To understand well. And that's obviously serves to suggest why
- 2:00:40Speaker 1: the United Air memorates in Saudi Arabia and other of
- 2:00:42Speaker 1: the other countries were insisting that Trump do a pause
- 2:00:45Speaker 1: on this and try to get some negotiated peace. But
- 2:00:48Speaker 1: like you said, when we started out, are we kind
- 2:00:50Speaker 1: of a sense of agreement that they don't seem to
- 2:00:52Speaker 1: want to move and aren't going to go anywhere. So
- 2:00:54Speaker 1: this campaign, this military campaign, seems inevitable, doesn't it.
- 2:00:59Speaker 17: No, it's not inevitable, because I think that there's enough
- 2:01:03Speaker 17: people and I know this for certain on the inside
- 2:01:05Speaker 17: that our most senior military commanders are telling the President
- 2:01:09Speaker 17: exactly what I just told you, And I think that's
- 2:01:12Speaker 17: the reason why we've had these multiple pauses when it
- 2:01:14Speaker 17: looked like we were right on the ridge of something,
- 2:01:16Speaker 17: because he realizes and is being told it won't work
- 2:01:19Speaker 17: and they will respond like that, and that causes profound
- 2:01:23Speaker 17: long term harm economically, and I think that is pushing
- 2:01:27Speaker 17: him off this. So I still think that there's a
- 2:01:29Speaker 17: decent shot that he finds some way to just declare
- 2:01:32Speaker 17: victory and walk away, because I'm just telling you there
- 2:01:34Speaker 17: won't be a negotiated settlement in the foreseeable future. I
- 2:01:37Speaker 17: mean long into the future. Because the uranium side calculates
- 2:01:41Speaker 17: the same thing I just told you that day time
- 2:01:44Speaker 17: is on their side. They are being hurt bad from
- 2:01:47Speaker 17: both the blockade and from the previous round, and they
- 2:01:49Speaker 17: know they would be hurt again if it goes back
- 2:01:51Speaker 17: back and fighting. But they think that they can endure
- 2:01:54Speaker 17: their pain, and they seem very confident of this longer
- 2:01:57Speaker 17: that we can endure the pain that would happen on
- 2:01:58Speaker 17: the other side. And they are are very immovable on
- 2:02:01Speaker 17: their terms. So I don't think there's going to be
- 2:02:03Speaker 17: a negotiated settlement. There's no military solutions, So that only
- 2:02:06Speaker 17: leaves in my view, the only plausible path is for Trump.
- 2:02:09Speaker 17: You just say, Okay, we've caused them enough harm it
- 2:02:12Speaker 17: we'll go back. If they ever do it again. But
- 2:02:14Speaker 17: we're just going to leave and leave it to them
- 2:02:16Speaker 17: to figure out. That's the best chance we have right now,
- 2:02:19Speaker 17: and I think there is a chance of that.
- 2:02:21Speaker 1: Well. In the Iranians seem to have some sense of
- 2:02:23Speaker 1: American politics. Donald Trump's staring down the barrel of a
- 2:02:26Speaker 1: November election which may flip the Senate maybe the House.
- 2:02:29Speaker 1: I mean, you know, this is a problem in a
- 2:02:30Speaker 1: gamble that he's risking because the American people are struggling
- 2:02:34Speaker 1: mightily with the massive increase in inflation brought about by
- 2:02:37Speaker 1: this gasoline and diesel problem. They are aware of our
- 2:02:43Speaker 1: political situation here, correct.
- 2:02:45Speaker 17: Believe me, yes they are. I mean I've interviewed a
- 2:02:47Speaker 17: few of them from my show just to get their
- 2:02:49Speaker 17: sense of it. I've looked at some of the comments
- 2:02:51Speaker 17: that other officials have made publicly, and they're keenly aware
- 2:02:54Speaker 17: of that. And listen, I think President Trump is too.
- 2:02:57Speaker 17: And I think that not a commonly understood factor that
- 2:03:01Speaker 17: could be coming today with the election in Kentucky of
- 2:03:07Speaker 17: the republic or Representative Massey and his fight with his
- 2:03:12Speaker 17: challenger there, that Trump is massively back in oh week,
- 2:03:15Speaker 17: like over twenty million people. I'm sorry, twenty million dollars
- 2:03:18Speaker 17: have been put behind Massy's opponent, and if all of
- 2:03:21Speaker 17: that with the way to President Trump's endorsement, with Secretary
- 2:03:25Speaker 17: Hexth going down and campaigning for this challenger, if that
- 2:03:29Speaker 17: fails and he loses, I think that could have a
- 2:03:32Speaker 17: bigger impact on Trump saying Okay, we're in real troll
- 2:03:35Speaker 17: for November. I've got to get this thing off the
- 2:03:37Speaker 17: deck now because the best that we had couldn't even
- 2:03:39Speaker 17: beat this one guy in our primary. So I think
- 2:03:42Speaker 17: that that could have a surprising impact on his decision
- 2:03:45Speaker 17: to get out of this if it goes bad.
- 2:03:47Speaker 1: That's an interesting take. Trust me, my listening audience is
- 2:03:50Speaker 1: painfully aware of the Massy Gallering race. They've been dominating
- 2:03:53Speaker 1: the commercial cycle. You can't turn away or turn anywhere
- 2:03:56Speaker 1: without seeing that argument back and forth between their campaign ads.
- 2:04:00Speaker 1: Head Congress from Massey on in seven o'clock hour talked
- 2:04:03Speaker 1: to him for a half hour. Daniel and forty million
- 2:04:06Speaker 1: dollars so far in that election. If you added, well,
- 2:04:10Speaker 1: maybe the other side has spent twenty, but collectively, if
- 2:04:12Speaker 1: you go to television ads, radio ads, mailers and everything,
- 2:04:16Speaker 1: he thinks in the aftermath, it's going to be closer
- 2:04:18Speaker 1: to forty, but it's already well documented that the spending
- 2:04:20Speaker 1: on advertising is at thirty three, making it the most
- 2:04:23Speaker 1: expensive congressional race in the entire history of this nation.
- 2:04:28Speaker 17: Yeah, that is that is unbelievable that so much stock
- 2:04:31Speaker 17: has been putting in. And I think it's a I
- 2:04:33Speaker 17: think the president's making a big gamble here because if
- 2:04:36Speaker 17: it doesn't work, I mean, it damages his brand across
- 2:04:38Speaker 17: the board. So I think they put too much stock
- 2:04:41Speaker 17: in this one race.
- 2:04:43Speaker 1: Well, we are going to wait to see. I know
- 2:04:44Speaker 1: our northern Kentucky voter friends have strong conviction, sir, and
- 2:04:48Speaker 1: that's why they have repeatedly sent Massy back in spite
- 2:04:50Speaker 1: of the fact that he is known as mister no
- 2:04:53Speaker 1: pivoting over Russia. Headline from the Wall Street Journal today,
- 2:04:56Speaker 1: Russia War is going badly on the ground end of
- 2:04:59Speaker 1: the air. I guess just from an initial standpoint, and
- 2:05:03Speaker 1: you've been pointing out the superiority of the Russian military
- 2:05:06Speaker 1: since we started talking about this invasion of the Ukraine
- 2:05:08Speaker 1: some time ago, Daniel Davis, did you ever think it
- 2:05:11Speaker 1: was going to take this long to accomplish whatever the
- 2:05:13Speaker 1: Russians are hoping to accomplish because apparently they haven't made
- 2:05:17Speaker 1: any gains in land. They're suffering with massive, massive losses,
- 2:05:21Speaker 1: loss of life, soldiers killed. And the Ukrainians have apparently
- 2:05:26Speaker 1: adapted to this method of warfare and are starting to
- 2:05:28Speaker 1: use drones of their advantage, even launching strikes into Moscow
- 2:05:32Speaker 1: the other day. What do you make of this?
- 2:05:35Speaker 17: Yeah, I think that some of this enthusiasm is is
- 2:05:37Speaker 17: a little unfounded and overblown. There has been some definite
- 2:05:40Speaker 17: advances with the Ukraine side on the drone warfare side,
- 2:05:43Speaker 17: especially the long range drones, not just the ones on
- 2:05:45Speaker 17: the tactical side. Because they are losing so many men,
- 2:05:49Speaker 17: are having so much trouble even press gaining guys to
- 2:05:52Speaker 17: come to the front, they are now relying like massively
- 2:05:56Speaker 17: on the drones himself because they don't have the manpower.
- 2:06:00Speaker 17: That is still it's slowed Russia down in a couple
- 2:06:02Speaker 17: of places, but it hasn't stopped him. In fact, the
- 2:06:04Speaker 17: Russia is in the middle of an offensive operation in
- 2:06:07Speaker 17: the Zaparigia area that is gaining territory. I don't know
- 2:06:10Speaker 17: why the Wall Street journalistn't mentioning that they actually are
- 2:06:13Speaker 17: on the move again there and they're focusing on this
- 2:06:16Speaker 17: big strack that came into Moscow. Most of it was
- 2:06:19Speaker 17: shot down, a few of them did get through, and
- 2:06:21Speaker 17: they don't seem to be talking about the one thousand
- 2:06:23Speaker 17: and five hundred that came in the Russian direction about
- 2:06:26Speaker 17: a day before that too. So there is still very
- 2:06:29Speaker 17: much viable in there. And as I've been talking to
- 2:06:31Speaker 17: a number of folks to here on must show recently,
- 2:06:34Speaker 17: there is growing anger in Russia at the very issue.
- 2:06:37Speaker 17: You said, how can this be lasting this long? And
- 2:06:40Speaker 17: to answer your first question, no, I did not think
- 2:06:41Speaker 17: that it would be going four and a half years
- 2:06:43Speaker 17: and still no end inside. And that's apparently the view
- 2:06:47Speaker 17: of many in the Russians that they're mad at Putin,
- 2:06:48Speaker 17: not for the fighting the war, they're mad at him
- 2:06:50Speaker 17: for not fighting it hard enough, and they're pushing him
- 2:06:53Speaker 17: hard to escalate and to do things different, potentially, according
- 2:06:57Speaker 17: to some folks, even striking military targets in NATO countries
- 2:07:01Speaker 17: at the factories where these long range drones are manufactured
- 2:07:05Speaker 17: or where these missiles are manufactured, which obviously you're talking
- 2:07:08Speaker 17: Article five and the potential for a clash. But many
- 2:07:11Speaker 17: on the Russian side or say they're fed up with
- 2:07:13Speaker 17: this and they're ready to do whatever it takes to
- 2:07:15Speaker 17: actually win. So I think this is one of the
- 2:07:16Speaker 17: more dangerous periods. And ironically, the fact that your Ukraine
- 2:07:20Speaker 17: side is having success with some of these longer range
- 2:07:22Speaker 17: missiles actually puts to the war more risk of escalating,
- 2:07:26Speaker 17: because Russia says, look, the only way that Ukraine can
- 2:07:29Speaker 17: do that is with direct help from the U from
- 2:07:32Speaker 17: the western side through their airspace and the Baltics their technology,
- 2:07:35Speaker 17: their targeting capability, intelligence, and they say, therefore, you are
- 2:07:39Speaker 17: in the war, and we're stupid for not responding in kind,
- 2:07:43Speaker 17: and we'll see it. Putin gives into that he's been
- 2:07:45Speaker 17: very a risk averse, but that pressure on him inside
- 2:07:50Speaker 17: could eventually push us beyond that if enough Russians get angry.
- 2:07:54Speaker 1: That is a frightening reality something to be learned there.
- 2:07:57Speaker 1: If we pivot back over to look at the situation
- 2:07:59Speaker 1: United States, Israel against Iran. We spent how many a
- 2:08:03Speaker 1: decade in Afghanistan, didn't really accomplish anything in there. Big
- 2:08:06Speaker 1: giant militaries versus really really convicted people. They can do
- 2:08:11Speaker 1: a lot of world hurt, can't they. Well, the Ukrainians
- 2:08:13Speaker 1: have a conviction. The Russians are finding that out there
- 2:08:15Speaker 1: four and a half years in. It seems to me
- 2:08:17Speaker 1: there might be something to learn from just that reality.
- 2:08:20Speaker 17: And that one's a little bit different because do you
- 2:08:22Speaker 17: had the conviction on both sides of that line, and
- 2:08:25Speaker 17: so now that it's gonna that's that's why I feared
- 2:08:27Speaker 17: that it could escalate, and we should have gotten this
- 2:08:29Speaker 17: off the table a long time ago.
- 2:08:31Speaker 1: Someday you and I will be talking about the end
- 2:08:33Speaker 1: of the conflict and the end of the loss of
- 2:08:35Speaker 1: life today not today day. Daniel Davis Deep Dive every
