• 0:01
  Speaker 1: Quickly on a need to know basis, because you need
• 0:05
  Speaker 1: to know the first thing today.
• 0:07
  Speaker 2: Your words at steal me stem you have a day
• 0:12
  Speaker 2: at least for work.
• 0:13
  Speaker 3: When the sun comes up, drops a kid into scoop.
• 0:16
  Speaker 1: Anyway, Joey has everything a jam do all the Joses
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: seven needs.
• 0:23
  Speaker 4: No one that Joe's as smile he on the eggs past.
• 0:29
  Speaker 2: Be Joe, thank you for letting me be of service
• 0:32
  Speaker 2: to you this morning. I want to be Joe on
• 0:37
  Speaker 2: the program that tells you what went on last night.
• 0:42
  Speaker 2: We'll give you our analysis of that affair and then
• 0:46
  Speaker 2: really try to dig in with you at four three
• 0:49
  Speaker 2: four eight eight two four two one seven as to
• 0:52
  Speaker 2: how it's impacting you where you are. You can text
• 0:56
  Speaker 2: message as many many people do. Some folks have the
• 0:59
  Speaker 2: time to drop a phone call in there, but I
• 1:02
  Speaker 2: know how mornings get and it's much easier just to
• 1:06
  Speaker 2: open up a voice to text and go tell Joe
• 1:10
  Speaker 2: you know, and that's fine and we will respond in kind.
• 1:13
  Speaker 2: We had one earlier that I never really got a
• 1:16
  Speaker 2: chance to flesh out. It came in right before the
• 1:18
  Speaker 2: seven thirty news at Eastern. And if you don't get
• 1:23
  Speaker 2: the whole program and you missed that bit or you know,
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: like I go to the podcast channels later today, they'll
• 1:30
  Speaker 2: be up for consumption at your leisure. We get a
• 1:34
  Speaker 2: bunch of show downloads. We're not doing it for anything else.
• 1:38
  Speaker 2: Then not everybody gets every hour, and that's okay. So
• 1:44
  Speaker 2: I was asked about my premise that the nineteen thirty
• 1:49
  Speaker 2: three gold This all started with a question about FDR's
• 1:53
  Speaker 2: confiscation of all the gold in nineteen thirty three, and
• 2:00
  Speaker 2: it leads that leads to the great you know.
• 2:03
  Speaker 5: The.
• 2:06
  Speaker 2: Great Society nearly bankrupts the gold standard that we were
• 2:10
  Speaker 2: on and we were manipulating the price of gold, and
• 2:13
  Speaker 2: then Nixon has to pull us all out of that
• 2:16
  Speaker 2: because it was either that or closed the Great Society down.
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: And he was facing a massive Democrat majority in the
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: House and Senate, because remember had there is never Republican
• 2:33
  Speaker 2: president or not Eisenhower, Nixon, you name it, until Bill
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: Clinton is president. There isn't a Republican majority in the
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: House of Representatives from the end of the Civil War,
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: the end of World War two to nineteen ninety four.
• 2:57
  Speaker 2: So all the things that Oh Nixon did, it was
• 3:00
  Speaker 2: a Democrat Congress that did a lot of this and
• 3:04
  Speaker 2: guys like Nixon just had to sign off on it.
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: But the question was pointed to how all this relates
• 3:11
  Speaker 2: to the Civil War and then the establishment of the technocrats,
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: which is a word that the technocrats chose for themselves
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: because racist redneck goons just didn't seem so inspiring. It
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: was tough to recruit to the organization of redneck goons,
• 3:31
  Speaker 2: although the Knights in White Satin, with their beautiful white
• 3:35
  Speaker 2: sheets and hoods, they did pretty good for recruiting. But
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: so you go through the timeline of all the economic failures,
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: and remember.
• 3:46
  Speaker 6: You know, the.
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: The crash of Black Wall Street is in here in Tulsa, Oklahoma,
• 3:56
  Speaker 2: in the Greenwood District the Federal Reserve in nineteen teen thirteen.
• 4:01
  Speaker 2: All of this stuff builds up and creates the Great Depression,
• 4:06
  Speaker 2: which then leads to FDR saying I need to grab
• 4:11
  Speaker 2: everyone's gold because well, great Depression. So you see what
• 4:15
  Speaker 2: I mean, This is all self inflicted wounds because we
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: didn't have conservative talk radio calling it out at the time.
• 4:23
  Speaker 2: I mean, you know, we had like a dozen radio
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: stations by the time that all happened. We were all
• 4:27
  Speaker 2: singing old timey Ah, I'm a man of pain and sorrow?
• 4:31
  Speaker 2: What was that from the old brother? Where aren't you?
• 4:34
  Speaker 2: It's very funny retelling of the Odyssey. Anyway, our first
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: things this morning, Homeland Security Secretary Christy Nome announced that
• 4:44
  Speaker 2: she's calling for a sweeping travel band on countries that
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: she says send killers and leeches and entitlement junkies floating
• 4:54
  Speaker 2: across our borders. President Trump no announcement on what he's
• 4:58
  Speaker 2: doing with that recommendation, but he was in meetings, according
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: to a leaked story to The Washington Post, with senior
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: US officials on what to do next with Venezuela. Some
• 5:10
  Speaker 2: folks in Moscow and have a pretty good feeling of
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: what's coming next for Venezuela. They've ordered all Russian citizens
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: to leave now. According to the Association of Tour Operators,
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: Russia has been mobilizing flights organized to remove Russians as
• 5:26
  Speaker 2: quickly as possible from Venezuela. What do they know? Department

  Speaker 2: a presentation that lends personal reflection, national pride, and a
• 6:04
  Speaker 2: warm celebration of the American spirit. President Trump Monday celebrated
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: what he called a historic opportunity as Siria's President, Ahmed
• 6:14
  Speaker 2: al Sharah, according to White House sources, continues to work
• 6:19
  Speaker 2: on liberalizing the country's government. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu

  Speaker 2: Homo Kead and Israeli NGO posted that he is on
• 6:42
  Speaker 2: the phone, posted a picture of him talking with President Trump.
• 6:46
  Speaker 2: And Minnesota apparently has lost a billion dollars over the
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: last few years in social services fraud schemes, and people
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: are calling on the Tim Waltz to be investigated for
• 6:57
  Speaker 2: those losses.
• 7:01
  Speaker 7: A few years ago, my youngest son had something minor
• 7:05
  Speaker 7: turned into something very.
• 7:06
  Speaker 6: Major in a matter of hours.
• 7:08
  Speaker 8: It was Medishare that came through for us and there
• 7:10
  Speaker 8: was no hassles, there was no problem.
• 7:12
  Speaker 6: That's what's so wonderful about knowing that you're a part
• 7:16
  Speaker 6: of such an incredible ministry.

  Speaker 9: share each other's medical expenses.
• 7:23
  Speaker 5: Medishare is a family, a group of people that stick
• 7:28
  Speaker 5: with you through the hardest times of your life.

  Speaker 11: Considered by most, optimized curcumin is one of the few
• 8:07
  Speaker 11: bioavailable and highly absorbable curcumin products on the market. Hi
• 8:13
  Speaker 11: im doctor Mitch. Since most chronic diseases have inflammation, our
• 8:18
  Speaker 11: optimized curcumin seems to be a perfect addition to any
• 8:22
  Speaker 11: nutritional program. It makes sense to me that preventing or
• 8:27
  Speaker 11: reducing inflammation is a key component to our overall health.
• 8:32
  Speaker 11: The Mayo Clinic found that kurcumin can decrease swelling and inflammation,
• 8:37
  Speaker 11: has antioxidant properties, and research suggests that kurcumin can prevent
• 8:42
  Speaker 11: cancer or at least slow the spread of cancer, and
• 8:46
  Speaker 11: in many instances, make chemotherapy more effective. It protects our
• 8:51
  Speaker 11: healthy cells even from radiation. Total Wellness dot com where

• 10:26
  Speaker 12: best friends, the canines. We know dogs are wonderful pets
• 10:29
  Speaker 12: at home, but because of their acute senses, they also
• 10:32
  Speaker 12: perform life saving work every day.

• 13:11
  Speaker 1: On a need to know basis, because you need to
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: know the first thing today you.
• 13:17
  Speaker 17: Say, you.
• 13:22
  Speaker 6: Gave me a.
• 13:31
  Speaker 2: Game, so you know people. How long are we going
• 13:49
  Speaker 2: to allow people taking advantage? And this is where forced
• 13:53
  Speaker 2: centralized charity bears its fruit. So the corruption in Minnesota,
• 14:00
  Speaker 2: well to spend it. You go back to this a
• 14:02
  Speaker 2: little bit because I think it ties in with what
• 14:05
  Speaker 2: happened after the Civil War and building up through the
• 14:09
  Speaker 2: Great Depression and the stock market crash, because you keep
• 14:13
  Speaker 2: in mind Federal Reserve, and everyone likes to point to
• 14:15
  Speaker 2: the Federal Reserve system. And if you listen to the commentariat, SUN,
• 14:21
  Speaker 2: CNBC and all these places, you know the Federal Reserve,
• 14:24
  Speaker 2: especially in all the all the never Trump conservatives quote
• 14:28
  Speaker 2: unquote that are bent out of shape about how Trump is, Oh,
• 14:32
  Speaker 2: whether it's the Treasury secretary has no right, the Federal
• 14:38
  Speaker 2: Reserve is independent, and the president threatening the board governors,
• 14:42
  Speaker 2: and because these are their friends, you have to understand
• 14:47
  Speaker 2: that we all have friends in this business. And it's
• 14:52
  Speaker 2: very hard work to not just come on the air
• 14:56
  Speaker 2: and pimp for your friends, because at the end of
• 15:03
  Speaker 2: the day, you're an amalgam of the honest work you do.
• 15:08
  Speaker 2: And I'd like to think that people say you're an
• 15:11
  Speaker 2: honest broker. You're not just out there saying you know
• 15:16
  Speaker 2: Rand Paul Good or Ben Klein good, or you know
• 15:19
  Speaker 2: Donald Trump good, they do good things. We're all good
• 15:22
  Speaker 2: people who are you know, capable of doing good things
• 15:26
  Speaker 2: and bad things. Subsidy for rare earth exploring not good,
• 15:32
  Speaker 2: you know, because subsidy not good shouldn't be necessary. I
• 15:39
  Speaker 2: know it is for a lot of other things, but
• 15:41
  Speaker 2: I'm just pointing out here's a case where the al
• 15:44
  Speaker 2: Shabab terrorist organization was getting money from Minnesota because of
• 15:50
  Speaker 2: food for COVID kids. And you know, this is what
• 15:56
  Speaker 2: happens when you create these blinded do good organizations in
• 16:01
  Speaker 2: the government because they aren't capable of because they don't
• 16:06
  Speaker 2: want to be protested against true vetting. So when somebody says, yeah,
• 16:14
  Speaker 2: we've got a campaign here in Minneapolis is going to
• 16:18
  Speaker 2: feed four hundred kids a day, so we need a
• 16:21
  Speaker 2: big portion of the COVID meals plan and Governor Wallts
• 16:24
  Speaker 2: goes and what too soon, too late? Son? He rubber
• 16:32
  Speaker 2: stamps it, and the funding goes to al Shabab, who
• 16:37
  Speaker 2: is not using it. Maybe they're using it for something,
• 16:40
  Speaker 2: but that gives them a chance to devote more of
• 16:43
  Speaker 2: their money to their terrorist activities. I likened it earlier
• 16:47
  Speaker 2: on in the program to federal money going to plan parenthood.
• 16:53
  Speaker 2: Oh sure, we do abortions, but we never use the
• 16:57
  Speaker 2: federal money we get for the abortions. We use it
• 16:59
  Speaker 2: to pay the rent and the electric bill, and you know,
• 17:03
  Speaker 2: some pensions and things like that. All the money we
• 17:09
  Speaker 2: say from not having to do that ourselves that we
• 17:12
  Speaker 2: spend on abortions. I was like, oh my gosh, how long?
• 17:15
  Speaker 2: How many times are we going to give ourselves this
• 17:18
  Speaker 2: self inflicted wound? And Tim Walls may be criminally liable
• 17:25
  Speaker 2: for it. He's not going to wear an orange jumpsuit.
• 17:28
  Speaker 2: He's just not. He doesn't have fall guy written on him.
• 17:33
  Speaker 2: It'll be another one of these. This is the politicalized
• 17:36
  Speaker 2: and he'll he'll believe it or not drag Trump into it.
• 17:39
  Speaker 2: He'll say, well, Donald Trump wasn't punished for this, and
• 17:43
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna fight just like Trump did. And I know,
• 17:47
  Speaker 2: I know you're laughing at the concept of it. A
• 17:49
  Speaker 2: billion dollars missing because somebody said, Hey, these kids during
• 17:56
  Speaker 2: the COVID lockdown don't have enough to eat. Now, we
• 18:01
  Speaker 2: were not on Katie Iz in Minneapolis at the time,
• 18:04
  Speaker 2: but had we been in twenty twenty when all this
• 18:08
  Speaker 2: stuff started, we would have said, so, why don't you
• 18:11
  Speaker 2: lift the shutdowns? Let everyone go back to work. And
• 18:22
  Speaker 2: the awkward silence is the silence you would get from
• 18:25
  Speaker 2: these folks who let people go back to work and
• 18:28
  Speaker 2: what kill all their coworkers with the machine gun? And
• 18:31
  Speaker 2: there's their spittle, little blazy. It's like a Quentin Tarantino movie.
• 18:38
  Speaker 2: My God, every time he talks, there's death spewing from
• 18:41
  Speaker 2: his mouth. That's how we were gas lit in COVID,
• 18:48
  Speaker 2: and we're still doing the recollections of it. Think about this.
• 18:54
  Speaker 2: This is December two, twenty twenty five, and we're now
• 18:58
  Speaker 2: just discovering some fraud that happened five years ago, and
• 19:04
  Speaker 2: it's only because we changed administrations. Do you think do
• 19:07
  Speaker 2: you think Vice President Tim Waltz would be leading the
• 19:11
  Speaker 2: charge into a Department of Justice investigation into Minnesota. Ah,
• 19:18
  Speaker 2: if you do, I have a bridge, I'd like to
• 19:20
  Speaker 2: sell you in Stanton, Virginia. So our insistence that we
• 19:28
  Speaker 2: do good work, so we create bad so then we
• 19:32
  Speaker 2: can do good. Isn't that a little Munchausien And that
• 19:36
  Speaker 2: is a mental health illness? So maybe that's what Tim
• 19:39
  Speaker 2: Walls has. Maybe that's the mental health issue that he has.
• 19:42
  Speaker 2: He has Munchausens by governor. Well, look at how they
• 19:47
  Speaker 2: administered COVID. Virginia had Munchausen's by governor syndrome. Our governor
• 19:53
  Speaker 2: made us sick, and insisted they were the only way
• 19:56
  Speaker 2: to have a conversation with our parents before they let
• 19:59
  Speaker 2: us die. In operating table that COVID era, you had
• 20:04
  Speaker 2: all sorts of Munchhausens by government shut down your economy.
• 20:09
  Speaker 2: Then insists that money coming in and then the inflation
• 20:14
  Speaker 2: that came from it is not just the printing of
• 20:16
  Speaker 2: the money. It's the printing of money that we were
• 20:19
  Speaker 2: still buying things with, and we were buying things that
• 20:24
  Speaker 2: nobody was making in this country anyway, and we had
• 20:32
  Speaker 2: economic demands. I mean, it's the joke of the early
• 20:36
  Speaker 2: days of COVID as everyone was hoarding the toilet paper,
• 20:41
  Speaker 2: remember the hoarding the toilet paper, But by the end
• 20:44
  Speaker 2: of COVID it was all this other stuff we were hoarding.
• 20:47
  Speaker 2: We were buying all kinds of stuff from China, and
• 20:51
  Speaker 2: not just the vaccines that they wouldn't make for us,
• 20:58
  Speaker 2: but it was driving up the prices because nobody else
• 21:01
  Speaker 2: was making it, so they had the marketplace to themselves.
• 21:04
  Speaker 2: It's almost as if they had it planned. I mean,
• 21:11
  Speaker 2: not that they invented the virus that caused the lockdowns.
• 21:15
  Speaker 2: That wriggled and tickled and giggled insider. So the Munchhausens
• 21:22
  Speaker 2: by government syndrome had to be created first through this
• 21:26
  Speaker 2: idea of fear. Fear of your neighbors, stay in your home,
• 21:31
  Speaker 2: will send you money. We need people, non government organizations
• 21:35
  Speaker 2: to help give out the money because there's not enough
• 21:37
  Speaker 2: of us, because we're all working from home. Let these
• 21:40
  Speaker 2: NGOs take the risk. They all have woke masks on,
• 21:44
  Speaker 2: especially these guys from Al Shabab. They have really really
• 21:47
  Speaker 2: intricate masks on and headgear and stuff. They're really safe
• 21:53
  Speaker 2: from COVID and they're with the money. And now Tim

• 28:24
  Speaker 17: Of commons', oh yes it is, and you know the depression,
• 28:36
  Speaker 17: you know, And we would go back to gold, and
• 28:39
  Speaker 17: we were talking about the stunning numbers ch csgold dot

  Speaker 17: com or four three four nine to seven nine coin
• 28:45
  Speaker 17: you want to talk at him about it.
• 28:47
  Speaker 2: Silver is approaching sixty dollars announced, Gold is you know,
• 28:51
  Speaker 2: heat teetering around forty two hundred dollars announce. And we've
• 28:58
  Speaker 2: talked about the value of gold and property, because gold
• 29:03
  Speaker 2: is property. And here's where FDR began his string and
• 29:08
  Speaker 2: people forget that this challenge FDR's confiscation of gold led
• 29:13
  Speaker 2: to a lot of the discussion of packing the court, which,
• 29:17
  Speaker 2: by the way, is back again as Republicans administer the
• 29:21
  Speaker 2: House and Senate Democrats talk about packing the court. California
• 29:26
  Speaker 2: has talked about it, Arizona has talked about it, Mark
• 29:29
  Speaker 2: Kelly has talked about it. I'm sorry, Senator Mark Kelly,
• 29:36
  Speaker 2: the husband of Gabby Giffords. You have to give him
• 29:38
  Speaker 2: his full title. It's a very wordy. It fills up
• 29:42
  Speaker 2: the business guard. Ben and we were making the case.
• 29:48
  Speaker 2: Joel brought up the confiscation of gold in nineteen thirty three.
• 29:52
  Speaker 2: But you see, one thing leads to another. Nothing happens
• 29:59
  Speaker 2: in Icel solynd Fdr confiscates all the gold because the
• 30:05
  Speaker 2: Great Depression is going on, and he's afraid there's people
• 30:08
  Speaker 2: with money and people without money, and so he's going
• 30:12
  Speaker 2: to create socialism based on all your gold that he's
• 30:16
  Speaker 2: going to take from you. And most people look at
• 30:22
  Speaker 2: this and say that had World War two not broken
• 30:26
  Speaker 2: out and dragged us into it, this would have made
• 30:29
  Speaker 2: the depression even worse. But we were saved through the
• 30:33
  Speaker 2: fact that most of the other manufacturing on the planet
• 30:36
  Speaker 2: was blown up during World War two. And so while
• 30:41
  Speaker 2: the Marshall Plan was basically the same thing we did
• 30:45
  Speaker 2: in the South after the Sherman Plan, it was benefited
• 30:51
  Speaker 2: by the fact that until Germany, which was the first
• 30:54
  Speaker 2: country to get back on its feet economically after World
• 30:57
  Speaker 2: War Two, Tom Rastisi, great economic historian out at George
• 31:04
  Speaker 2: Mason University some great pieces on how Germany because they
• 31:09
  Speaker 2: denied the Marshall Plan, they said no, no, no, we're
• 31:12
  Speaker 2: going to we broke it, We're going to buy it.
• 31:15
  Speaker 2: Came out of World War two sooner, faster and better
• 31:19
  Speaker 2: than almost anyone else. Thus, why the deutsch Mark is
• 31:23
  Speaker 2: the currency of the European Union basically awkward. Yeah, I
• 31:29
  Speaker 2: know there's a lot of bombing that went on, and
• 31:31
  Speaker 2: Germany still runs Europe, but not all of Europe. But
• 31:39
  Speaker 2: you go back to the Civil war and the development
• 31:41
  Speaker 2: and post civil war the idea of central government stopping
• 31:46
  Speaker 2: this the perversion of the commerce clause in order to
• 31:50
  Speaker 2: put the government's thumb on all these businesses, to make
• 31:54
  Speaker 2: sure that it is such a thing as the secession
• 31:59
  Speaker 2: of seventy sixty five percent of the US Treasury doesn't
• 32:05
  Speaker 2: happen again. Income tax So go through from nineteen thirty
• 32:11
  Speaker 2: three back to eighteen seventy and you see the development
• 32:15
  Speaker 2: of all these programs that turn into I think was
• 32:19
  Speaker 2: it nineteen thirteen is when income taxes created. Nineteen fourteen
• 32:28
  Speaker 2: is when the US Senate's responsibilities to the states are
• 32:32
  Speaker 2: taken away. Oh, nineteen thirteen, the Federal reserve system has started,
• 32:36
  Speaker 2: and everyone points to the Federal reserve is the reason
• 32:40
  Speaker 2: we haven't had another great recession or a great depression.
• 32:47
  Speaker 2: They were there before the Great Depression. There had been
• 32:52
  Speaker 2: a mini depression, so they developed the Federal Reserve, which
• 32:54
  Speaker 2: has made a bigger depression. Later, the the Permanent Reapportionment
• 33:05
  Speaker 2: Act first was flouted through Congress. In I think nineteen twelve,
• 33:12
  Speaker 2: you had Black Wall Street and the riots in Tulsa
• 33:17
  Speaker 2: in the Greenwood District, where prosperity had boomed in the
• 33:21
  Speaker 2: black community, just like Jefferson promised it would if they
• 33:27
  Speaker 2: were given access to economy. He wrote eloquently in the
• 33:32
  Speaker 2: I think it's the letters from on the Commonwealth of
• 33:35
  Speaker 2: Virginia that you can't just free the slaves. You have
• 33:38
  Speaker 2: to have a plan. You have to be able to
• 33:40
  Speaker 2: make sure that they have access to economic power. And
• 33:48
  Speaker 2: the race riots in Tulsa did that end because the
• 33:52
  Speaker 2: race riots were because a bunch of poor white guys
• 33:57
  Speaker 2: got mad at a bunch of prosperous black guys, exactly
• 34:02
  Speaker 2: like what happened during the mostly peaceful protests of the
• 34:07
  Speaker 2: Summer of Love and the Chop Chaz Zone that happened
• 34:14
  Speaker 2: and was it twenty two, twenty one something like that.
• 34:18
  Speaker 2: So all these things lead up to FDR taking the
• 34:22
  Speaker 2: gold from the citizens, violating the Fifth Amendment. And that's
• 34:26
  Speaker 2: kind of how this all got up, because we were
• 34:28
  Speaker 2: talking about the Fifth Amendment protecting your right to own
• 34:32
  Speaker 2: property and what is property? And is your income not property?
• 34:37
  Speaker 2: If you were paid in gold, certainly it's tangible. It
• 34:40
  Speaker 2: becomes property. That's why it's important that the US dollar
• 34:46
  Speaker 2: says Treasury note on it. It's not your dollar, it
• 34:51
  Speaker 2: is a promissory note that a value of dollar is
• 34:55
  Speaker 2: somewhere at the Treasury used to be able to turn
• 34:59
  Speaker 2: it in for gold. That was what FDR wanted to stop,
• 35:02
  Speaker 2: was people turning their dollars in for gold. But all
• 35:07
  Speaker 2: this leads up to the Great Depression. None of it
• 35:11
  Speaker 2: was about stopping the Great Depression. And then the gold
• 35:16
  Speaker 2: confiscation is a reaction to the Great Depression. So you
• 35:20
  Speaker 2: see how when I talk about Munchausen's by government. The
• 35:23
  Speaker 2: government does all these things that makes the economy sicker
• 35:27
  Speaker 2: and sicker and sicker, allows for things like the riots
• 35:30
  Speaker 2: in Tulsa, suborns them with the law enforcement of the day,
• 35:35
  Speaker 2: ignoring the warning signs ignoring the responsibility to protect private
• 35:42
  Speaker 2: property owned by citizens, because they were mad about it too,
• 35:47
  Speaker 2: because failure of leadership to say, these are free people,
• 35:52
  Speaker 2: and you're going to deal with it. Because racism was rampant,
• 35:58
  Speaker 2: and it's not just it's not the kind of racism
• 36:03
  Speaker 2: that still shows up when the Nazis march in your town.
• 36:08
  Speaker 2: Trust me, I've seen them here in my town. The
• 36:11
  Speaker 2: real ones, Not Donald Trump. I'm talking about the real ones,
• 36:15
  Speaker 2: the the bloggers and loggers and floggers in cells with
• 36:25
  Speaker 2: brown shirts on the nick fuintes, gropers and gripers, the
• 36:36
  Speaker 2: people who can't stand anyone else being prosperous because they aren't.
• 36:40
  Speaker 2: Oh women, you know, women are bad because they won't
• 36:44
  Speaker 2: date me. Oh have you tried? Yeah, and they blow
• 36:47
  Speaker 2: me off. Well, maybe you need to check yourself before
• 36:50
  Speaker 2: you wreck yourself. So devoid from friends, good friends, giving
• 36:56
  Speaker 2: them consult, that they live in their silo self fees
• 37:00
  Speaker 2: their racism. But it's a different It was a different
• 37:02
  Speaker 2: kind of racism then, because they had already allowed the
• 37:06
  Speaker 2: economy to hit the skids and we were trundling towards
• 37:10
  Speaker 2: the Great Depression. The black community of Tulsa was faced
• 37:16
  Speaker 2: with the same riots that the Jewish community of Berlin
• 37:19
  Speaker 2: was faced with. You have stuff and we don't. And
• 37:24
  Speaker 2: there's no moral underpinning than that you have stuff and
• 37:28
  Speaker 2: we don't, and we don't think that's fair, we don't
• 37:32
  Speaker 2: think that's right. But this is the Great Depression, and
• 37:38
  Speaker 2: all of that and the great society that came after it,
• 37:41
  Speaker 2: and the New Deal that was the master brainchild of
• 37:46
  Speaker 2: this whole thing was all set up. It might have
• 37:51
  Speaker 2: to be accidental. But as these things started to happen
• 37:55
  Speaker 2: and people lost access to the economy, the government kept
• 37:59
  Speaker 2: stepping for further.

  Speaker 14: Exercise is hard. Maintaining a healthy diet, of course, neither
• 41:03
  Speaker 14: is half as hard as dying. Sadly, type two diabetes,
• 41:08
  Speaker 14: heart disease, and stroke kill nearly a million people a year.
• 41:12
  Speaker 14: Even sadder, most of these deaths are preventable with a
• 41:15
  Speaker 14: few lifestyle changes, including regular activity, healthier eating, and not smoking.
• 41:22
  Speaker 14: Talk to your doctor about your risk for type two
• 41:24
  Speaker 14: diabetes and heart disease and if your doctor recommends lifestyle
• 41:28
  Speaker 14: changes or medication, listen. The reason so many die is
• 41:33
  Speaker 14: because not enough are willing to change. You can stop it,
• 41:37
  Speaker 14: starting right now. It's your life. Listen to your doctor,

  Speaker 20: first daid?
• 42:56
  Speaker 19: Sure?

  Speaker 18: I ate I can probably swim.

  Speaker 20: Are you sure you're okay to drive?
• 43:30
  Speaker 13: Yeah?
• 43:30
  Speaker 2: I'm pretty sober. Yeah, I'm probably okay.
• 43:35
  Speaker 8: Probably okay isn't okay, especially when it comes to drinking
• 43:39
  Speaker 8: and driving. If you're drinking, call a cab, a car,
• 43:42
  Speaker 8: or a friend. Buzz driving is drunk driving. A message

  Speaker 20: Don't Serve Teens program and the Federal Trade Commission.
• 44:18
  Speaker 1: For you from Joe Thomas.
• 44:20
  Speaker 2: It's first thing today, that's a WE roll here. What
• 44:38
  Speaker 2: people won't say, I'll say, but it is Giving Tuesday.
• 44:41
  Speaker 2: So if you are going to give it all away,
• 44:44
  Speaker 2: make sure you're betting, because you see what happens when
• 44:47
  Speaker 2: Tim Walls gets it up. So when you give it
• 44:56
  Speaker 2: all away, got to make sure you still have for yourself.
• 45:00
  Speaker 2: But philanthropy in this great society has been challenged to
• 45:07
  Speaker 2: the point where now we have to write tax code
• 45:11
  Speaker 2: to override tax code to reward people for giving to
• 45:15
  Speaker 2: charity because we see in Minnesota what happens when we
• 45:20
  Speaker 2: create government charity, and Minnesota is just the most recent
• 45:24
  Speaker 2: and because the terrorist organization is involved in it, the
• 45:29
  Speaker 2: Al Shabab terrorist group, I'm sorry, marginalized community. They're just
• 45:36
  Speaker 2: trying to They're just trying to do a organic, grassroots
• 45:40
  Speaker 2: effort to rebrand themselves the same way that Hamas did.
• 45:44
  Speaker 2: I'm sure. I'm sure that's all they're doing. When they
• 45:47
  Speaker 2: took those billions of dollars from Tim Wallas in Minnesota
• 45:52
  Speaker 2: via you and me and the taxpayers of the federal government.
• 45:57
  Speaker 2: When that all happened, I'm sure they were just thinking,
• 46:00
  Speaker 2: you know, we could pay an ad agency to get
• 46:04
  Speaker 2: us rebranded. But if we just give out food to
• 46:07
  Speaker 2: poor kids and perhaps a copy of the Qoran, maybe
• 46:13
  Speaker 2: a special vest. You know, it's it's community service, and
• 46:17
  Speaker 2: we can we can gain as much gravitas on community
• 46:21
  Speaker 2: service as we do, you know, buy money. And I
• 46:27
  Speaker 2: say this not only I mean, it's not tongue in cheek.
• 46:29
  Speaker 2: That's what happened. So what these groups do they try
• 46:32
  Speaker 2: to pretend that they're Black Lives Matter? How many mansions
• 46:38
  Speaker 2: did leadership of Black Lives Matter wind up with? It's
• 46:41
  Speaker 2: good to be the king. It's why you realize that
• 46:44
  Speaker 2: there are so many for profit industries that are now
• 46:47
  Speaker 2: operating as nonprofits. It used to be just public radio
• 46:51
  Speaker 2: was non pop pop profit broadcasting. Now pop music stations
• 46:55
  Speaker 2: are nonprofit rock. All kinds of nonprofits partially born of
• 47:01
  Speaker 2: the low low power FM movement. So a couple of
• 47:04
  Speaker 2: years back, all those low power fms were distributed, you know,
• 47:08
  Speaker 2: five hundred watts, you know barely, you know, goes two
• 47:12
  Speaker 2: three blocks, and they're all run by nonprofits, that's the rule.
• 47:18
  Speaker 2: But they were making money and the CEO was making money.
• 47:25
  Speaker 2: Oh you mean, and I don't have to own it.
• 47:29
  Speaker 2: Oh my gosh, this is great. Just do a fundraising drive,
• 47:34
  Speaker 2: file some paperwork. So the only thing that's booming faster
• 47:40
  Speaker 2: than for profit businesses turning into nonprofit businesses. And I
• 47:47
  Speaker 2: mean I used to joke. I used to joke that
• 47:49
  Speaker 2: I worked for a nonprofit radio station. Oh we intended
• 47:53
  Speaker 2: on making a profit, we just hadn't yet. But that
• 47:55
  Speaker 2: was just a gag. It was just needling each other.
• 48:00
  Speaker 2: But you're just food trucks. So it's somewhere sixty percent
• 48:05
  Speaker 2: of all food trucks are operated as a nonprofit. Clothing operations,
• 48:17
  Speaker 2: all these things are being operated as a nonprofit now
• 48:21
  Speaker 2: ever since COVID, because we'll give free publicity, like to
• 48:25
  Speaker 2: this al Shabab terror cell, to the people who are
• 48:30
  Speaker 2: helping because we are I don't know if we're too
• 48:37
  Speaker 2: busy to do the help. We don't have enough money
• 48:39
  Speaker 2: to do the help. But we talked about the aid
• 48:42
  Speaker 2: coming from Cook County. If you can't pay rent in
• 48:45
  Speaker 2: Cook County on sixty grand a year, the problem isn't
• 48:50
  Speaker 2: with your income, just like the problem isn't with the
• 48:55
  Speaker 2: spending at the federal government the problem. The problem isn't
• 48:58
  Speaker 2: with the taxing at the federal government level. We had
• 49:01
  Speaker 2: the guy on last week that was talking about the
• 49:03
  Speaker 2: research he did into that The problem isn't about cutting taxes,
• 49:08
  Speaker 2: it's about cutting the spending. We generate trillions and trillions
• 49:13
  Speaker 2: of dollars in tax collections every year, even through the
• 49:18
  Speaker 2: Biden economy, and that's a tribute to American resiliency that we,
• 49:27
  Speaker 2: you know, in a crappy economy, when everything was costing more,
• 49:30
  Speaker 2: we still generated trillions of dollars tax revenue. Tax. I
• 49:36
  Speaker 2: hate that phrase, but it becomes it becomes old hat
• 49:39
  Speaker 2: after a bit. Everyone says it's it's tax collections. So
• 49:51
  Speaker 2: you take the money out of the economy and then
• 49:55
  Speaker 2: only the government can be the one to put it
• 49:58
  Speaker 2: back in, and you wind up with scenarios like we
• 50:01
  Speaker 2: have in Minnesota because the difference between nonprofits that are
• 50:08
  Speaker 2: trying to help in the community. Maybe this one's trying
• 50:10
  Speaker 2: to help human trafficking. We had the young lady on
• 50:13
  Speaker 2: the program from Magnolia Rose. Magnolia Rose is a little
• 50:26
  Speaker 2: retail shop in our flagship city of Stanton, and the
• 50:31
  Speaker 2: money it raises, amongst other money that the group raises,
• 50:34
  Speaker 2: goes to support women who are trying to be you know,
• 50:38
  Speaker 2: get out of or have been rescued from human trafficking.
• 50:42
  Speaker 2: And it's mono Imano as we do Giving Tuesday, and
• 50:46
  Speaker 2: you're looking at who do we have Blue Ridge Area
• 50:48
  Speaker 2: Food Bank or you know the you know Feeding America
• 50:51
  Speaker 2: as the nationwide brand, but find somebody who's doing the
• 50:57
  Speaker 2: actual distribution. We just have a dear friend, Ray Kline
• 51:01
  Speaker 2: ran a group Branch of Love in the Name of Christ.
• 51:06
  Speaker 2: It's an overarching group. But he had the and he
• 51:09
  Speaker 2: did some amazing work. But he knew the people he
• 51:12
  Speaker 2: was giving to. And sure you can't say, oh, we've
• 51:16
  Speaker 2: helped ten thousand people this year, because those organizations that
• 51:23
  Speaker 2: can say that can't prove they helped anyone. They have
• 51:27
  Speaker 2: some statistics that say, well, we gave some stuff to them,
• 51:34
  Speaker 2: but did it really help them? And what did you
• 51:37
  Speaker 2: help them to do? Just like the Al Schabob terror cell,
• 51:41
  Speaker 2: Oh we helped them all right? Did the kids get food?
• 51:44
  Speaker 2: Or did we help them buy Sea four vests? And
• 51:50
  Speaker 2: if it turns out Al Schabob was doing evil things
• 51:54
  Speaker 2: with this, what is Tim Waltz's compliance to this? It's
• 51:58
  Speaker 2: his administration. He wanted to blame Donald Trump for every
• 52:03
  Speaker 2: single little thing that happened during his first term in office.
• 52:08
  Speaker 2: I guess the same would be true of a governor
• 52:10
  Speaker 2: of a US state, right, Tim, I mean never, Yeah,
• 52:17
  Speaker 2: I'm not questioning your intellectual capacity. I'm just I'm just
• 52:21
  Speaker 2: asking the question about all the billion dollars that went
• 52:25
  Speaker 2: to terrorist groups on your watch and maybe everything short
• 52:33
  Speaker 2: of your watch. But see, this is why you should
• 52:36
  Speaker 2: be left with your money so that you can do
• 52:40
  Speaker 2: the good works on a day like Giving Tuesday. And
• 52:42
  Speaker 2: we probably wouldn't even need a Giving Tuesday anyway until
• 52:46
  Speaker 2: tomorrow morning. I am Joe.
• 52:47
