Transcript
- 0:03Speaker 1: Quick hundred to do list. Putting the radio on is
- 0:07Speaker 1: the first thing today.
- 0:08Speaker 2: Your word sat steal me step near every day, at
- 0:14Speaker 2: least for work when the sun comes up, drops a
- 0:16Speaker 2: pet into school the way joys everything A dreamer, all
- 0:21Speaker 2: the treasure said, it needs no one that Joe saw
- 0:25Speaker 2: has smelled all the eggs.
- 0:31Speaker 3: Joe, you smell that. No, it's not what the rock
- 0:39Speaker 3: is cooking. No, no, you smell. You smell that smell
- 0:43Speaker 3: of springtime in the mid Atlantic and the Midwest, that
- 0:48Speaker 3: smell of paving operations going on during the night to
- 0:52Speaker 3: fill all the potholes that developed during the summer. That's
- 0:55Speaker 3: why I noticed as we were driving around over the weekend,
- 0:58Speaker 3: It's like everything smells like paving operations. Doesn't it get
- 1:03Speaker 3: that new tar smell going on there? As an election
- 1:08Speaker 3: day in the United States arrives, I know, it only
- 1:12Speaker 3: feels like that because every single living person is talking
- 1:16Speaker 3: to you about Virginia's elections. Why, well, because it's the
- 1:21Speaker 3: one that's going on right now. And we'll all get
- 1:24Speaker 3: into the van and drive to Florida when their situation
- 1:29Speaker 3: begins tomorrow. And this is what the phrase the drive
- 1:34Speaker 3: by media means. They'll be here shooting up the place
- 1:38Speaker 3: for a while, and then they'll head to Florida and
- 1:42Speaker 3: Missouri and all the other places where redistricting is the
- 1:46Speaker 3: thing and a chance to vote on whether to suspend
- 1:51Speaker 3: a constitution. And if you can spend suspend a constitution,
- 1:55Speaker 3: what makes you any different than who goes Chavez? I mean,
- 1:59Speaker 3: even Democrats in Maryland realize how bad an idea this is,
- 2:04Speaker 3: but it's not stopping the votes from going out there.
- 2:07Speaker 3: And somebody asked me a couple of days ago, what
- 2:11Speaker 3: was going on with it? I said, it's Trump arrangement
- 2:13Speaker 3: syndrome turned into an election, the idea that we can
- 2:18Speaker 3: stop Donald Trump, we can impeach Donald Trump, we can
- 2:21Speaker 3: get rid of all the people we just want to
- 2:24Speaker 3: get rid of because of Donald Trump. And that's what
- 2:31Speaker 3: they're doing. That is the campaign strategy is get out
- 2:37Speaker 3: and vote. It doesn't matter whether you think this is
- 2:39Speaker 3: a good idea or not. And usually that's I don't
- 2:44Speaker 3: want to say it's a tell, but it's usually a
- 2:46Speaker 3: warning sign that you're about to do something really dumb
- 2:50Speaker 3: and that you're going to rue this For some time,
- 2:54Speaker 3: I wrote a piece about it. Actually interesting layout of
- 2:58Speaker 3: all the illegal things that went up, the abuses and
- 3:05Speaker 3: usurpations that went on into this or published it in
- 3:08Speaker 3: the Daily Signal this morning. So I'll get into some
- 3:13Speaker 3: of that with you this morning. Lots of other things
- 3:16Speaker 3: on our docket first things today, as Pakistan is prepping
- 3:21Speaker 3: for a new round of talks that may happen today
- 3:23Speaker 3: may not. Axios is reporting the jd vances in Pakistan
- 3:28Speaker 3: for talks with Iran about extending the ceasefire. President Trump
- 3:33Speaker 3: told Bloomberg News Monday, it's highly unlikely that he'll just
- 3:37Speaker 3: renew the ceasefire unless he sees some movement in talks. However,
- 3:44Speaker 3: Iran's chief negotiator and parliament speaker Mohammed well Ibaf said
- 3:51Speaker 3: we do not accept negotiations under the shadow of threats. Meanwhile,
- 3:58Speaker 3: Iran has granted commanders greater authority over militias, allowing some
- 4:03Speaker 3: groups to carry out operations without specific orders from Tehran.
- 4:08Speaker 3: It's a shift from regular operating procedures. Three militia members
- 4:14Speaker 3: and two officials confirmed this to the Associated Press. Baghdad
- 4:19Speaker 3: has struggled to keep these hardline groups in line. Most
- 4:25Speaker 3: of the factions now operate under Iranian advisors using a
- 4:31Speaker 3: decentralized command structure, and that's always good for human rights.
- 4:36Speaker 3: They hanged a man in an area just north of Tehran.
- 4:44Speaker 3: According to the judiciaries Mizan news agency out of Tehran,
- 4:49Speaker 3: the man was convicted for setting fire to a mosque.
- 4:53Speaker 3: There's no other information about the man, whose name is
- 4:56Speaker 3: released as Amir Ali mir Jafari. Today, as I mentioned,
- 5:02Speaker 3: is the culmination of a forty five day long marathon
- 5:05Speaker 3: voting cycle for the redistricting referendum in Virginia. Polls open
- 5:10Speaker 3: at six am and are open until seven pm. According
- 5:14Speaker 3: to an organization called the Virginia Public Access Project, out
- 5:18Speaker 3: of the eighty three million dollars already spent by the
- 5:22Speaker 3: end of quarter one on this race, sixty four million
- 5:26Speaker 3: has been spent promoting yes votes, but all but three
- 5:30Speaker 3: percent of that money has come from outside of the
- 5:33Speaker 3: Commonwealth of Virginia. President Trump's cabinet has lost another member.
- 5:38Speaker 3: Labor Secretary Laurie Chavez de Riemer is out as Labor
- 5:43Speaker 3: Secretary under accusations of drinking and an illicit affair with

- 8:03Speaker 7: Considered by most optimized curcumin is one of the few
- 8:07Speaker 7: bioavailable and highly absorbable curcumin products on the market. Hi,
- 8:13Speaker 7: I'm doctor Mitch. Since most chronic diseases have inflammation, our
- 8:18Speaker 7: optimized curcumin seems to be a perfect addition to any
- 8:22Speaker 7: nutritional program. It makes sense to me that preventing or
- 8:26Speaker 7: reducing inflammation is a key component to our overall health.
- 8:31Speaker 7: The Mayo Clinic found that kurcumin can decrease swelling and inflammation,
- 8:36Speaker 7: has antioxidant properties, and research suggests that kurcumin can prevent
- 8:42Speaker 7: cancer or at least slow the spread of cancer, and
- 8:46Speaker 7: in many instances, make chemotherapy more effective. It protects our
- 8:51Speaker 7: healthy cells even from radiation. Total Wellness dot com where

- 10:01Speaker 9: Growing up on a farm in Tennessee, I've been fascinated
- 10:03Speaker 9: with animals. I'm not only in awe of their beauty
- 10:05Speaker 9: and kindness, but also their tireless work ethic. Just look
- 10:08Speaker 9: at the birds who gather supplies to build nests, or
- 10:11Speaker 9: Swiss foxes who work hard to provide for their young,
- 10:14Speaker 9: or penguins who travel up to five hundred miles to
- 10:17Speaker 9: secure food for their families, or bush babies whose impressive
- 10:20Speaker 9: jump allows them to navigate the trees and the wild
- 10:22Speaker 9: in search of fruit. This remarkable work ethic is shared
- 10:25Speaker 9: by our best friends, the canines. We know dogs are
- 10:28Speaker 9: wonderful pets at home, but because of their acute senses,
- 10:32Speaker 9: they also perform life saving work every day. Dogs keep
- 10:35Speaker 9: us safe at airports. They comfort returning veterans, some of
- 10:37Speaker 9: whom suffer from PTSS. They work with diabetics, alerting them
- 10:41Speaker 9: when there's a change in their blood chemistry. Working dogs
- 10:43Speaker 9: have a variety of highly trained roles that contribute to
- 10:46Speaker 9: society and help those in need. So please join me

- 11:06Speaker 7: I just want to say that friendship is about heart,
- 11:10Speaker 7: art and brain.
- 11:12Speaker 10: Who's with me?
- 11:13Speaker 4: Good thing is he knows when he's buzzed, and my
- 11:15Speaker 4: brain is saying when it's time to go home, Somebody
- 11:18Speaker 4: call me a ride.
- 11:19Speaker 5: Love that guy, me too.
- 11:21Speaker 12: Know your buzzed warning signs, call for a ride when

- 13:17Speaker 15: Independence from Virginia again. First Thing Today by Joe Thomas
- 13:22Speaker 15: on the Chunk Media Network.
- 13:24Speaker 3: Tonight's the night We'll make key stream sure as the scandal.
- 13:34Speaker 4: Or you can put lipstick on a pig now take
- 13:38Speaker 4: getting wish to tie back the heads of time.
- 13:46Speaker 11: Stay with you here to night.
- 13:53Speaker 3: So there's no truice of the rumor that Barack Obama
- 13:56Speaker 3: and Zorhan Mamdani are going to come here for election
- 14:00Speaker 3: and sing the wheels on the bus go rolling over you.
- 14:04Speaker 3: But that is where we are, and for wheel or woe,
- 14:08Speaker 3: history will be made tonight. Either a state in the
- 14:13Speaker 3: United States, in these United States will become indiscernible from
- 14:20Speaker 3: Guatemala or any other Banana republic under some generalalissimo who,
- 14:27Speaker 3: if he doesn't like the way things are going, can
- 14:30Speaker 3: just suspend the law. Or we remain a state steeped
- 14:37Speaker 3: in the idea that if there's a law, you follow it.
- 14:43Speaker 3: And I understand it's a bigger story than just the
- 14:48Speaker 3: redistricting or Trump derangement syndrome that is manifest here. And
- 14:53Speaker 3: everybody has got our name in their mouth. You have
- 14:58Speaker 3: the clip right, yeah, yeah, that's And if you wondered,
- 15:07Speaker 3: if you if you stopped and wondered at all about
- 15:09Speaker 3: Barack Obama. There he is having buddy time. It's like
- 15:13Speaker 3: playdate that Kevin James movie having a playdate with Zorhan Mandani.
- 15:19Speaker 3: Because as much as Barack Obama loves Abigail Spanburger for
- 15:24Speaker 3: her ability to catfish. I was told, how do you
- 15:31Speaker 3: know Abigail Spanburger is a good catfish because she can
- 15:35Speaker 3: hold her breath a long time. I'm told that somehow
- 15:38Speaker 3: that's a sexist line, so I won't use it aside
- 15:41Speaker 3: from right there. But that's an example. I was setting
- 15:44Speaker 3: an example.
- 15:51Speaker 16: This is.
- 15:54Speaker 3: The fruit of a tree that was planted when President
- 15:57Speaker 3: then President Obama said, well, I don't believe marijuana possession
- 16:03Speaker 3: should be illegal, and therefore I'm ordering a federal police
- 16:08Speaker 3: to no longer treat it as a Article one narcotic
- 16:16Speaker 3: and just told police that, regardless of what the law said,
- 16:19Speaker 3: don't arrest people for it anymore. Oh, what a novel concept.
- 16:24Speaker 3: We no longer have to legislate anything. We just wait
- 16:27Speaker 3: for the dear leader to tell us what is and
- 16:31Speaker 3: isn't illegal based on the whims of his day. And
- 16:35Speaker 3: you know what's funniest in all this, This is the
- 16:38Speaker 3: kind of stuff they point at Donald Trump and say
- 16:42Speaker 3: he's just a fascist dictator, because that's all he does,
- 16:45Speaker 3: is he just But this crowd does nothing more than
- 16:52Speaker 3: try to change the rules when it doesn't suit their purpose.
- 16:58Speaker 3: I mean, it would be like Chelsea Clinton and running
- 17:00Speaker 3: in the Boston Marathon. I don't know if you saw
- 17:03Speaker 3: the video of that and deciding like Rosie Ruiz that
- 17:12Speaker 3: you know, twenty six miles is a long time. It's
- 17:16Speaker 3: a long run, and the secret Service, and so I'm
- 17:21Speaker 3: just gonna get on the subway here and jump off
- 17:24Speaker 3: near the finish line and just run the rest of
- 17:27Speaker 3: the way. It's okay, I finished the race. The whole
- 17:32Speaker 3: point is to finish the race. Correct, I didn't. I
- 17:38Speaker 3: didn't you do anything more than just fulfill my purpose.
- 17:45Speaker 3: And whether you love Trump or hate Trump, very few
- 17:51Speaker 3: people find themselves ambivalent about him. Is tangential to this
- 17:59Speaker 3: point about what's going on in Virginia starting in forty
- 18:04Speaker 3: minutes or so, just a little under forty minutes, It's
- 18:12Speaker 3: about a process. It's about saying, well, I don't like
- 18:22Speaker 3: this law, so I'm just going to ignore it. This
- 18:25Speaker 3: is the manifest, men, This is the manifest Oh, never mind,
- 18:30Speaker 3: the manifest of what's going on with these ice protests
- 18:34Speaker 3: at a soul out there that can point to me.
- 18:37Speaker 3: And I've been trying to find since these no ice
- 18:40Speaker 3: protests began. I've been trying to find somebody who can
- 18:45Speaker 3: point to a piece of immigration code outside of the
- 18:50Speaker 3: ones who point to the existence of immigration code, because
- 18:54Speaker 3: I will give those people at least the gravitas of saying, Okay,
- 18:58Speaker 3: you're taking a stand saying we should have no immigration
- 19:01Speaker 3: policy whatsoever, we should just be an open border. There's
- 19:06Speaker 3: not a lot of them, and I wouldn't trust them
- 19:08Speaker 3: with heavy equipment, but at least they will say, oh,
- 19:12Speaker 3: I just don't think we should have immigration law. Everyone
- 19:14Speaker 3: should be allowed to come here and take my job.
- 19:17Speaker 3: And when you ask them that, like, well, not my
- 19:19Speaker 3: job or a but someone else's, you know, one of
- 19:21Speaker 3: those jobs Americans doesn't want to do, Like what, Well,
- 19:26Speaker 3: I don't know. I'm an accountant. I know a lot
- 19:28Speaker 3: of people who don't like being an accountant, especially for
- 19:31Speaker 3: big firms. I don't think they should take my job.
- 19:36Speaker 3: It's it's always it's always the good for me, not
- 19:39Speaker 3: for the folks are ringing on in here, So let
- 19:43Speaker 3: me open up on this. I want to read to
- 19:46Speaker 3: you because there's some chronicling in my most recent Daily
- 19:49Speaker 3: Signal publication of the laws that were broken just in
- 19:53Speaker 3: Virginia to get here. But it's the it's the idea
- 19:57Speaker 3: that if you just don't like a law, ignore it,
- 20:00Speaker 3: don't comply with it. Say I just don't like this law.
- 20:04Speaker 3: What a novel concept. And this is why either Virginia
- 20:08Speaker 3: becomes indistinguishable from all those Central America banana republics, or
- 20:15Speaker 3: we continue to be the birthplace of America. Say, maybe
- 20:21Speaker 3: sadly ironic that it's happening on the two hundred and
- 20:23Speaker 3: fiftieth anniversary of Thomas Jefferson's first list of abuses and usurpatients.
- 20:31Speaker 3: You're online too? Who's this?
- 20:33Speaker 16: I'm on line? Tell this is Clark.
- 20:35Speaker 3: All right, Clark, I'm gonna need you to hang on
- 20:37Speaker 3: for a bit because let me see who's online one here?
- 20:41Speaker 3: Good morning. You're on with Joe. First thing, This election
- 20:44Speaker 3: day morning in the Commonwealth feels like it's an election
- 20:47Speaker 3: day everywhere since every news agency is covering it. Who's this?
- 20:52Speaker 4: Hey?
- 20:52Speaker 16: Good morning, Joel?
- 20:53Speaker 3: Hey Joel. How are you doing this morning? Sir?
- 20:56Speaker 17: I'm doing okay and just wanted to add my comments
- 21:01Speaker 17: to you to your program.
- 21:03Speaker 3: Go on, get on with your bad self.
- 21:06Speaker 17: Well, I ran a marathon before I run half marathons.
- 21:10Speaker 17: I ran ten case but I can't run them anymore.
- 21:12Speaker 17: But I think the road race is about it's about
- 21:16Speaker 17: having people who are going to be strong and not
- 21:20Speaker 17: let not let down their their guard because in order
- 21:25Speaker 17: to have it's not just about training for the marathon,
- 21:29Speaker 17: as we would say in the In the political world,
- 21:31Speaker 17: it's about endurance and determination. We have a lot of
- 21:35Speaker 17: Republicans that sit on their hands and pick their butt,
- 21:39Speaker 17: and and we have a lot of voters that sit
- 21:41Speaker 17: on their hands and pick their butt too and want
- 21:44Speaker 17: other people to do things for themselves.
- 21:46Speaker 3: Well. To be fair, it's a lot easier to pick
- 21:48Speaker 3: your butt when you're sitting on your hands. Joel, hang
- 21:51Speaker 3: on to that thought for a second. I know, I
- 21:54Speaker 3: know you're trying to eat your breakfast, but wash your
- 21:56Speaker 3: hands after you've picked your butt before you pick up
- 21:58Speaker 3: your breakfast sandwich.
- 22:02Speaker 7: Did you know that healthy arteries make a gas? Yes,
- 22:07Speaker 7: actually three known gas is I'm doctor Mitch, and nitric
- 22:12Speaker 7: oxide is a gas that's readily made all day long
- 22:17Speaker 7: to keep our arteries open by relaxing the blood vessel walls.
- 22:21Speaker 7: By doing this, our circulation is increased, bringing blood, oxygen
- 22:27Speaker 7: and nutrients to every part of your body. Both age

- 28:12Speaker 1: Today on the Tunk Media Network by Joe Thomas, the
- 28:16Speaker 1: second most famous Thomas in Charlottesmith.
- 28:30Speaker 3: So this is part and parcel of why Trump arrangement
- 28:33Speaker 3: syndrome has to you know, paint the picture that Trump
- 28:37Speaker 3: is behaving lawlessly. And if you press on that and say, well,
- 28:41Speaker 3: where has he behaved lawlessly? Where has he administered the
- 28:46Speaker 3: government of the United States outside of the law. Well,
- 28:49Speaker 3: he hasn't asked Congress for a permission to go into Iran.
- 28:52Speaker 3: He actually has an open checkbook that they gave to
- 28:56Speaker 3: George Bush and Barack Obama had it and Joe Biden
- 29:00Speaker 3: had it regarding quote, the War on Terror. So I mean,
- 29:04Speaker 3: it's not breaking the law they say he is. But
- 29:08Speaker 3: then they can't point to one that he's broken. We
- 29:11Speaker 3: can point to law after law after law that the
- 29:14Speaker 3: American left wants to ignore because they want to use them.
- 29:18Speaker 3: See is the little fun fact about the laws that
- 29:22Speaker 3: the left wants to ignore. It's not that they don't
- 29:26Speaker 3: like the law. They love the law, they just want
- 29:29Speaker 3: to use it when they're in power to suppress you.
- 29:36Speaker 3: And that's the dirty little secret in all of this.
- 29:39Speaker 3: More folks jumping in here. You heard doctor Clark in
- 29:42Speaker 3: the onset. He was online too when we went to
- 29:44Speaker 3: the news, so let me give him his time on
- 29:47Speaker 3: the Dais the floor recognizes the delegate from Alabama? Good
- 29:51Speaker 3: morning or what's on your mind? First thing this morning?
- 29:55Speaker 16: Well? I guess number two. I gotta try harder, right, Joe?
- 30:00Speaker 16: So how long is it before possession of written documents
- 30:09Speaker 16: becomes a federal crime? Here's the thing, okay, now where
- 30:19Speaker 16: we are right now, is the left thinks that they
- 30:25Speaker 16: get to decide day to day what laws they will enforce,
- 30:30Speaker 16: what laws they want enforced. Let me ask you a
- 30:33Speaker 16: question here, Joe. If the federal government can decide it's
- 30:39Speaker 16: not going to enforce a law that has been duly constituted,
- 30:46Speaker 16: voted on, ratified, signed, what keeps them from enforcing laws
- 30:54Speaker 16: that don't exist once they just made up? What's the difference?
- 30:59Speaker 3: Very little, actually, if you lay it out there that way,
- 31:02Speaker 3: very little from you saying you know, hey, I just
- 31:05Speaker 3: don't like your face. You're in violation of the Caucasian
- 31:09Speaker 3: out in Public Act.
- 31:10Speaker 16: And you know, we just made it up a month
- 31:14Speaker 16: or so ago in reference to what the leftists that
- 31:17Speaker 16: have seized control of your state are doing. We mentioned
- 31:20Speaker 16: Calvin Ball.
- 31:22Speaker 3: Yes, yes, very.
- 31:26Speaker 16: Yes, Calvin made up the rules as he went along
- 31:29Speaker 16: to suit whatever situation Calvin had. I don't know, maybe
- 31:33Speaker 16: we should call this government ball. How much better for
- 31:37Speaker 16: them would they get to where everything is digital? Because
- 31:44Speaker 16: once all the laws on Wikipedia, hey, they decide they
- 31:49Speaker 16: don't like the way something is, it just changed. And
- 31:55Speaker 16: if you've got a written document that had yesterday's all
- 31:58Speaker 16: on it, that's going to be a crime punishable by
- 32:03Speaker 16: I don't know what you know.
- 32:05Speaker 3: Hey, George Orwell's on the other line for you, Clark
- 32:08Speaker 3: he once, he says, it sounds like you've got some
- 32:11Speaker 3: ideas for his next book.
- 32:14Speaker 16: I've read his last couple.
- 32:15Speaker 3: Well, isn't that what got Winston Smith in trouble? As
- 32:18Speaker 3: he was remembering, you know, the old laws and the
- 32:21Speaker 3: old stories.
- 32:22Speaker 16: Right, I could distinctly remember things. That was his crime.
- 32:26Speaker 16: Spend time at the Ministry of Love. What a fun
- 32:29Speaker 16: place that is? Yeah, you know where we are right
- 32:35Speaker 16: now is burning federal buildings, destroying property, violence in the street.
- 32:44Speaker 16: That's a mostly peaceful protest prayer outside of an abortion clinic. Clearly,
- 32:51Speaker 16: this is in violation of the Faith Act. Solitary confinement
- 32:55Speaker 16: pre trial for however long it takes us to decide
- 32:59Speaker 16: what are going to do seems rather arbitrary, yep.
- 33:06Speaker 3: But that's but that's what they want, is you know.
- 33:09Speaker 3: And this is why they have to have a villain
- 33:12Speaker 3: in Donald Trump, because this only works if you're doing
- 33:15Speaker 3: it to you know, beat the joker. Batman can suspend
- 33:19Speaker 3: all the rules if he has to beat the joker,
- 33:22Speaker 3: you know. And and that's the problem is that terrorists,
- 33:27Speaker 3: this is what terrorists do. They they scare you into
- 33:30Speaker 3: the idea that you have to suspend who you are
- 33:34Speaker 3: and the things that you hold dear, like rule of law,
- 33:38Speaker 3: so that you can win.
- 33:41Speaker 16: If you were a filthy communist and you had permanent
- 33:47Speaker 16: power just right there at your fingertips. And Donald Trump's
- 33:55Speaker 16: not that a way. You think he was a villain.
- 33:57Speaker 3: Too, well, he is to them, without question.
- 34:00Speaker 16: That's what I'm saying. But this is still so close.
- 34:04Speaker 3: But you know, look at look at what is you know,
- 34:07Speaker 3: and this is why you know you hear stuff like
- 34:09Speaker 3: this and I have to insert here because you know,
- 34:13Speaker 3: and I brought this up a couple of times. Dear
- 34:15Speaker 3: friend of mine thinks that talk radio shows should have,
- 34:18Speaker 3: you know, a daily if not hourly, segment with some
- 34:22Speaker 3: psychotherapist I don't know, or or just play some sitar
- 34:26Speaker 3: music and and diffuse the scent of pachuli or something,
- 34:32Speaker 3: because it can be daunting because you're nothing you're saying
- 34:36Speaker 3: is wrong. Here's the thing that I get up every
- 34:40Speaker 3: morning as a happy warrior about For all of that,
- 34:46Speaker 3: for the sixty three million dollars spent to perhaps eke
- 34:51Speaker 3: out a one percentage point victory, this is proof to
- 34:56Speaker 3: the fact that if we do our bit better, just
- 35:00Speaker 3: kind of what Joel was saying, if we do our
- 35:02Speaker 3: bit better, and you know, and we don't drive people
- 35:08Speaker 3: out of our tent with litmus tests and things like that,
- 35:13Speaker 3: we out and number them so profoundly that they have
- 35:17Speaker 3: to spend three times as much money to get a
- 35:20Speaker 3: one percentage point lead in some polls and maybe not
- 35:24Speaker 3: even win at all. They will burn piles of cash
- 35:28Speaker 3: just to make a point. They truly are heath Ledger
- 35:31Speaker 3: in the dark night. I'm only burning my half. You know,
- 35:37Speaker 3: it's not about the money, it's about making a point.
- 35:41Speaker 3: I mean, this is truly what they're doing, and they
- 35:46Speaker 3: want to be able to bring about this communist you know, utopia,
- 35:55Speaker 3: which isn't the utopia. And that's the part that's the
- 35:58Speaker 3: most important to bring out. Is all of the lying
- 36:02Speaker 3: is all based on the ultimate lie, which is communism
- 36:07Speaker 3: is utopia.
- 36:09Speaker 16: Well, if it was utopia, Joe, they wouldn't have to
- 36:11Speaker 16: lie and force people into it.
- 36:13Speaker 3: There is too, there's not.
- 36:16Speaker 16: They're not burning piles of cash to make a point.
- 36:21Speaker 16: They're investing capital with an expectation of a return on investment. Okay,
- 36:28Speaker 16: I guarantee you they expect to realize the profit when
- 36:34Speaker 16: they get their way.
- 36:35Speaker 3: And by day you mean Klaus and all the folks, Inspector.
- 36:41Speaker 16: And the whole Davos crowd. Yes, you know. I'm sorry.
- 36:46Speaker 16: You've got the same thing going on in Virginia that
- 36:49Speaker 16: we have in Alabama right now. We have the Alabama
- 36:52Speaker 16: Leadership Fund running ads trying to influence our elections, and
- 36:59Speaker 16: it's out of state money. And I'm all about free speech, Joe,
- 37:03Speaker 16: I am, But when You've got millions and millions and
- 37:08Speaker 16: millions of dollars being poured into a state to influence
- 37:13Speaker 16: political outcomes in that state. That's not free speech, that's
- 37:17Speaker 16: outside interference.
- 37:20Speaker 3: Well, and that's that goes into our responsibility in the
- 37:25Speaker 3: media to call that out if outside money is coming in.
- 37:30Speaker 3: And you know, and you say, I mean, I don't
- 37:32Speaker 3: know what the percentages are in Alabama, but it's three
- 37:36Speaker 3: percent to ninety seven percent. Ninety seven percent of all
- 37:41Speaker 3: the money spent in Virginia's redistricting election has come from
- 37:46Speaker 3: other places, places that want Virginia to do stuff for them.
- 37:51Speaker 3: And I'm sorry, you know, there is no return on
- 37:54Speaker 3: investment from where I sit for that kind of sales pay.

- 43:18Speaker 3: from here?
- 43:19Speaker 10: Probably?
- 43:23Speaker 5: Can I get a Mulligan.
- 43:26Speaker 3: Ready to go?
- 43:27Speaker 16: Hey?
- 43:27Speaker 18: Are you sure you're okay to drive?
- 43:29Speaker 2: Yeah?
- 43:30Speaker 10: I'm pretty sober.
- 43:32Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm probably okay.
- 43:35Speaker 23: Probably okay isn't okay, especially when it comes to drinking
- 43:39Speaker 23: and driving. If you're drinking, call a cab, a car,
- 43:42Speaker 23: or a friend. Buzz driving is drunk driving. A message
- 43:45Speaker 23: brought to you by NITSA and AD Council.
- 43:47Speaker 18: You know the legal drinking age is twenty one. You
- 43:50Speaker 18: may also know this law protects teens. Find out more
- 43:53Speaker 18: at Don'tserve Teens dot gov. A message from the We
- 43:56Speaker 18: Don't Serve Teens program and the Federal Trade Commission.
- 44:13Speaker 3: From the home of the First Amendment.
- 44:15Speaker 1: First thing today.
- 44:16Speaker 3: Is that cbrination or just opponentstate. You then look at
- 44:26Speaker 3: people or it gets too lay. So you know why
- 44:33Speaker 3: is rule of aw important? Because in a free society
- 44:36Speaker 3: you have to make sure the laws are there to
- 44:38Speaker 3: protect people, to make sure that when their rights are
- 44:45Speaker 3: abused ignored, usurped that there is a lattice work and
- 44:52Speaker 3: not just a format for but an insistence of recompense.
- 45:05Speaker 3: And that's what the leftists want to get rid of,
- 45:13Speaker 3: is this expectation that there is a rule of law
- 45:17Speaker 3: that is blind because they want to create a favored class.
- 45:24Speaker 3: Why do they want to do that so that they
- 45:26Speaker 3: can pick who the favored class is. And it's a
- 45:30Speaker 3: fungible effort. I mean, it's all over the place. And
- 45:39Speaker 3: this is what they want us to become comfortable with this.
- 45:47Speaker 3: They want this to become normalized. It's a communist word
- 45:51Speaker 3: that they used to use as they dragged people through
- 45:55Speaker 3: the Overton window. This is not normal, This is not
- 46:03Speaker 3: to the benefit of anyone. Ask women, Ask women athlete,
- 46:10Speaker 3: you know, let's get call Riley Gaines and ask you
- 46:13Speaker 3: had Title nine that they grew bored with because women
- 46:18Speaker 3: were no longer the best target class to make the
- 46:24Speaker 3: case for their authority. Was a time when that was
- 46:30Speaker 3: the battle Royale. Who was going to convince women that
- 46:34Speaker 3: their political party was more on their side. And I'm
- 46:38Speaker 3: not talking about all the Gatcha and the Tucker Carlson
- 46:41Speaker 3: and I'm sorry i endorsed Trump and all the naval
- 46:45Speaker 3: gazing that these people are doing. I'm talking about essence
- 46:48Speaker 3: of a society. So win Title nine and the era
- 46:53Speaker 3: and all of this stuff starts to manifest and the
- 46:56Speaker 3: Gloria steinems and everyone's saying we need to have a
- 46:59Speaker 3: favored class, glass ceilings, all of these things. The question
- 47:07Speaker 3: came up in brave circles, can you show me a
- 47:12Speaker 3: place where there is somebody who is breaking a law?
- 47:16Speaker 3: So they wrote some laws that said you cannot discriminate
- 47:20Speaker 3: on the basis of sex. Okay, we had laws that
- 47:24Speaker 3: said you can't discriminate, but we wanted to write a
- 47:27Speaker 3: special one. And each time they do this, it creates
- 47:34Speaker 3: new loopholes for them to hide through, to duck through.
- 47:38Speaker 3: So now Title nine's out the window because LGBTQ, the
- 47:42Speaker 3: one or two percent of the population that this applies to,
- 47:53Speaker 3: are being allowed to participate in women's athletics and it's
- 48:01Speaker 3: to the detriment of actual women. But remember, wasn't all
- 48:05Speaker 3: that long ago that the females of the population were
- 48:10Speaker 3: the target class. And the point is, don't get caught
- 48:14Speaker 3: up in this reverie of oh where you know, because
- 48:18Speaker 3: at some point you're going to cease being the special class.
- 48:25Speaker 3: It's like the nemol or poem. First they came for
- 48:29Speaker 3: the trade unionists, and I didn't say anything because I
- 48:32Speaker 3: wasn't a trade unionist. And then they came and rounded
- 48:35Speaker 3: up the communists, and I didn't say anything because I
- 48:38Speaker 3: wasn't a communist. And by the time they came for me,
- 48:41Speaker 3: there was no one left to speak up for me.
- 48:47Speaker 3: Rule of law protects that says that you can't do
- 48:52Speaker 3: this regardless of who you are and who they are.
- 48:59Speaker 3: But we want to see spend that to get our way.
- 49:03Speaker 3: Here here are three great examples of that from the
- 49:06Speaker 3: Daily Signal piece that I published just went up live
- 49:10Speaker 3: this morning on what comes next? Because here's the thing
- 49:25Speaker 3: that there's very, very possible that this is all going
- 49:29Speaker 3: to wind up in a courtroom. And when it winds
- 49:35Speaker 3: up in a courtroom, what is going to be the outcome?
- 49:40Speaker 3: So the column I just published is what if you
- 49:42Speaker 3: were a justice on Virginia's Supreme Court, Because if the
- 49:47Speaker 3: pundits are correct, and yes, ekes out a one or
- 49:52Speaker 3: two percent victory, despite like I said, three times as
- 49:56Speaker 3: much money coming from New York, in California and Illinois,
- 50:01Speaker 3: Virginia's Supreme Court still is waiting in the wings to
- 50:05Speaker 3: rule because they cited a one hundred year old president
- 50:09Speaker 3: that said, we don't interfere in ongoing legislation, to which
- 50:14Speaker 3: I questioned, because if the legislation is being brought about
- 50:17Speaker 3: through clearly and patently illegal process, you should, I would think.
- 50:23Speaker 3: But that's me first advancing their redistricting hopes. Democrats state
- 50:28Speaker 3: lawmakers made use of a special session that had been
- 50:31Speaker 3: called by the governor and not closed, was still hanging open.
- 50:37Speaker 3: They were still technically in session for budget reconciliations. So
- 50:43Speaker 3: they said hey, let's get together for the budget. And
- 50:45Speaker 3: when they got there, the Speaker of the House hit
- 50:48Speaker 3: the gavel and said, Okay, you know what, while we're here,
- 50:51Speaker 3: let's vote on this redistricting referendum. Secondly, the referendum was passed,
- 51:00Speaker 3: and then by law, it's supposed to wait for an
- 51:04Speaker 3: intervening election where all the members of the General Assembly
- 51:08Speaker 3: stand for election. They decided that since they passed this
- 51:13Speaker 3: referendum with just days before last November's General Assembly election,
- 51:19Speaker 3: they were going to count that election. And here was
- 51:22Speaker 3: their argument that you've heard me mentioned forty five days
- 51:25Speaker 3: of voting. You may have seven days of voting, you
- 51:28Speaker 3: may have ten days of voting. We all have early
- 51:31Speaker 3: voting because COVID. They said, well, while you're voting for
- 51:38Speaker 3: those all those days before election day, it doesn't really count.
- 51:41Speaker 3: Election day is just election day. Even though millions and
- 51:45Speaker 3: millions of Virginians had already voted, they hadn't actually voted
- 51:49Speaker 3: because they hadn't counted their ballance yet. That's another thing
- 51:54Speaker 3: on there. And then finally the Assembly forced registrars to
- 52:01Speaker 3: break the law because the law says that if there's
- 52:04Speaker 3: a constitutional referendum, a pretty important thing. You have to
- 52:09Speaker 3: post it so that all can see it publicly for
- 52:12Speaker 3: ninety days before the vote. Obviously they couldn't because there
- 52:17Speaker 3: were only there were barely ninety hours before the vote.
- 52:20Speaker 3: And so these are just the rules that they the
- 52:24Speaker 3: laws that they broke to get to this point in
- 52:28Speaker 3: the redistricting election. What other laws do they want to break?
- 52:32Speaker 3: What are the laws do they not want to even enforce,
- 52:35Speaker 3: regardless of their existence or not. We see this with immigration.
- 52:40Speaker 3: This is how we wind up with this existential crisis
- 52:43Speaker 3: of non citizens all over our cities trying to be
- 52:48Speaker 3: sent back home.
- 52:51Speaker 21: Crime across the country is at an all time high.
- 52:54Speaker 21: It feels like even a family road trip is taking
- 52:56Speaker 21: a risk. We don't want the feeling of being unprotected
- 52:59Speaker 21: and vulteulnerable. We found get CCL dot com. Get ccl
