There is a scheduled news conference at twelve thirty, so we're going to monitor
that and see if he has new information about what's happening in Israel. There's
profound a little bit of a disagreement disappointment in Israel that we have the troops
ready to go and we're holding this off because Joe Biden wants is to Plus,
there's the aid package available one hundred and seven billion dollars the President wants
to pass involving Ukraine, Israel, and many other causes. So that's down
the road. So stay tuned for the presidential news conference in about thirty minutes,
But until then, Melissa Powers is the Hamlet County prosecutor. Shell a
news conference recently about the matters involving the defendant Levonte Davis, and this was
an FCC couple that left a game and he was walking it over the rhine.
There was some verbal back and forth with the uber each driver. Unbeknownst
to anyone at this point, Levonte Davis was in the front seat, took
umbrage and away we go. Plus, we have the issue of jan Michelle
Kerney Lemon, who wants to use public assets to let those doing burnouts a
place to do it, but until then. Now Melissa Powers, welcome again
to the Bill Cunningham Show. And for those who have not seen the video,
and it was released to the media sometime yesterday, can you describe the
interactions between Jason McKinnon and Levan and Davis resulting in mister McKinnon's death. First
of all, thank you Billy for having me on your program today to talk
about the incident that occurred on October fourth, after the FC game. This
couple, Jason McKinnon and his wife were walking through over the rhyme to where
they had parked their car. And as they were proceeding, and it was
a populated street, I mean, there were a number of people that were
near or in the area, but he noticed a car facing the wrong way
on a one way and the driver that vehicle was a female and he and
her window was down, and he spoke to her politely saying, I'm not
sure, but I think you're going the wrong way on a on a one
way, and she began yelling at him, don't speak to me like that,
and then he yelled back. And then at some point the boyfriend of
the driver, Levonte Davis, walked up and sucker punched him in the face
to put him in a headlock type of choke hold. Took him down to
the ground and Jason was able to get released from that hold and stood up
again and was trying to keep somewhat of a distance, but then he was
attacked again. An off camera is where he's back into another choke hold.
You see him on the ground with Levonte Davis on top of the victim and
continuing to choke him. Several people walked up trying to it was yelling at
Davis to let him go, to stop, you know, he's tapping out,
don't catch a case, you know, and things along those lines,
and they kept yelling at him, yelling at Davis to release them, and
he never did. Jason McKinnon is then laying there, appears to be lifeless,
was unconscious. He was then taken to the hospital and then four days
later he succumbed to his injuries in the corner. After the autopsy, it
was compression to the neck is what caught was the cause of death. And
Melissa Power is one of the most disturbing things. This happened right in front
of Jason McKinnon's wife who's doing her best to yell and scream and get this
Davis character out. And you made a reference in your news conference although Davis
is only twenty four years old, which is of tender years almost. He
had multiple previous cases involving arm robberies and vicious assaults. I think three or
four, but all of them were dismissed. And I'm thinking that doesn't mean
necessarily it's a bad thing or a wrong thing. Maybe there's insufficient evidence.
But were the other cases dismissed because victims did not want to come forward to
identify Levante Davis as the perpetrator. You're correct, though, it was.
He had four violent offenses, two earlier this year, two in twenty twenty
one, aggravated robbery, assault of felony's assault, and aggravated menacing. The
misdemeanors were dismissed for want of prosecution, and typically what happens in those cases
is because they're dismissed because no one appeared. The victim failed to appear.
When the case was set for trial, the felonies were presented to the grand
jury and those were ignored. And again typically it's because the alleged victims do
not come and testify in order for the charges to be brought against him formally.
And so what normally happens in the grand jury. There might be thirty
or forty cases. I think Steve Talbert may be in charge. I'm not
sure, but still he's been there forever. And they line up the cases
and run him through. And if the matter of state versus Levannie Davis is
next up, and it's about a five to ten minute hearing, where are
the witnesses? Look around? Well, then you call for the witnesses.
Where are they? We got to have a promeifacient case of probable cause to
indict. And if there's no witnesses, Steve Tolbot will simply saying, well,
let's move on to the next case. And if witnesses don't show up,
then the case isn't indicted. Davis is not prosecuted. But the point
you're trying to make is this is not his first rodeo exactly. I mean,
they're showing he was there, he was arrested, there were complaints filed
against him for offenses of violence, so we know that there's some violent history
here. He just doesn't have the convictions at this point is different and the
family is devastated. If mister mckennnedy came out of an FCC game, he
was trying to be in a sense of good citizen by saying, hey,
you might be going the wrong way and unbeknownst to him speaking with a one
who I think was eight months pregnant relatable to Levannie Davis. He got out
and began with a punch and there was a moment after he punched Jason McKinnon
that they were and McKennon went down, that both parties got up and that
that was the moment that Davis had had to disengage. But it didn't happen,
did it. No, No, he went back for a second round
to really you know, and that that's the where the tragedy sets in,
and was able to get him in that choke hold again. And at this
point Jason McKinnon was fighting for his life, but he was pretty much rendered
helpless by the hold, and he was also Davis was on top of him,
so he had very limited ability to move to be able to try to
free himself from that choke hold because he was on the ground as well.
All right, So Davis is facing what charges has he been placed on him
this time? And hopefully I guess this time the witnesses will testify in a
sense, especially missus McKennon. But what charges is Davis facing. He was
indicted for two counts of murder, one count of felony's assault, and one
count of strangulation. So the felonius assault and strangulations are felling of the second
degree. If he's convicted on all charges, he faces the maximum possible sentence
of life in prison without the parole eligibility after fifteen years, or excuse me,
with parole eligibility after fifteen years. Tony Bender wants to know how come
there's one body and there's two murder cases if they charge it different ways,
if there's statues, there's different ways that is charged. And I don't have
the indictment right in front of me to be able to tell you in the
statue. But that's not atypical, that's actually very common. So it gives
a jury and option one or the other may be convicted of both, but
sentence just on one. That's exactly right. All right, Let's move on
to jan Michelle Kearney Lemon. I've met her once or twice. She appears
to be a nice lady. She is a person who is quite liberal.
And we've had a terrible rash of these burnouts, which is fast and furious
events in which individuals, dozens and dozens of individuals take over a city street.
I think the most reprehensible happened in the Lightle Tunnel about two or three
o'clock in the morning, where I seventy one was shut down for a period
of time and the traffic backed up to the bridge, in which cars of
generally are stolen cars, and they masquerade, they use a mask, which
is often today, and they also masquerade or hide the license plate, and
they just have fun shutting down a major thoroughfare and they do burnouts, record
it and put it on the internet. The cars tend to be stolen,
those involved tend to be young folks, maybe don't have a driver's license.
And so the vice mayor of our city says, we have to encourage this
behavior by putting it at the Hambleton County Fairgrounds. Can you explain? Can
you explain to me how that wouldn't solve the problem. I think we're only
it would be encouraging more lawlessness and creating additional problems. Well, you mentioned
about the young people and the videoing and making sure that they can get this
out on the internet. I guess this is part of what's happening with these
street takeovers, but often in other cities. Luckily we haven't had that yet
here, only because we haven't had arrest yet. But when the individuals have
been arrested in other cities, there's a lot of firearms being taken off of
them as well. So this is and I agree with you that the most
reprehensible of them all was the one inside the Lightle Tunnel. There were over
one hundred cars involved that night. Some of the cars are called blockers,
the ones inside what they call it the area where they do the burnouts is
the pits. They're always in the front. There's a staging area where the
speaks. And we believe that the little Tunnel one was down by Longworth Hall
and then they preceded. I also believe that some of these actors or not
from Cincinnati, and I also think that some of the organization occurred outside of
our city. But it is a problem. It's just reflects the bigger problems,
and then it just continues showing a lack of respect for law enforcement,
the decay of our society. People that were on that expressway or any of
these areas. They went to five different locations that same night, so they
regroup and then they go. They went to Hopple Street, and I think
there was one down by East End, by the school down there on Eastern
Avenue. Anyway, there's there was a number of different locations that they went
that night. But it's it's mob and it's violent, and the people that
may live in the areas where they are targeting, they don't deserve this.
Uh, the business is the one down by Hopple Street at Camp Washington Chili
and any of those businesses that were open. Nobody's going to go to those
areas when this is going on because there's a fear of mob violence eventually erupting.
You just don't know what can happen, but we need to put a
stop to this. I was so angry when I first saw that this came
to our city because I've seen it in other cities and I'm like, I'm
glad that's not happening here. But this just shows a demonstration of the decay
of our society, and we need to fight against that so that we can
keep Cincinnati beautiful and safe where we respect the rule of law. And this
is just a thumbs or the middle finger basically to everybody in our community,
but also particularly law enforcement. Wow, you know, I don't want to
get a dispute between you and jan Michelle Kearney Lemon, who is a well
intended lady. She wants to be the mayor after after a perival. She's
positioning herself. And how ridiculu isn't to provide space for these individuals who generally
have stolen cars and guns no licenses, from all over the region the Midwest
to come here and say, let's put together, let's have a big burnout
at the Hamity County Fairground. But that would incentivize the wrong behavior. And
as the prosecutor, Melissa, you can't arrest people. Generally, the cops
have to arrest. So I called Sergeant Dan Hills. He knows where the
bodies are buried. He's been around for a long time. I said,
how come you guys don't arrest him? He said, are you kidding me?
He said, we got one or two cars in the Central Business District
at midnight two three o'clock in the morning. And if they're on a run
and they get this, they show up, there's one hundred cars, they're
smoking, burnout, the guns are out, shots can be fired up in
the air. What's one or two cars going to do? And I'm thinking
what the cops don't want to get involved. The city leaders are saying,
kind of leave them alone. We're going to put up at the Hamity County
Fairgrounds. To me, this begins the destruction of any respect for law and
order and is directly the opposite of what's got to happen. Have you thought
about getting together with the chief of police or the mayor or somebody who's saying
that there's a new prosecutor in town and I'm not putting up with this.
Our office is working with the Cincinnati Police Department and trying to identify those that
are in these videos and who participated in these street burnouts. With regard to
our Vice mayor, as you said earlier, she's very nice, she's very
intelligent. She is a very nice person, but I think she's misguided on
how to shut this down and not encourage it. We cannot embolden these people
because if laws aren't being enforced. That's exactly what happens. People become more
brazen, and as I said earlier, it just then more bigger problems become.
You know that happened. You go to the fairgrounds. If somebody gets
killed or hurt, the county is going to get sued, of course,
right, you know. I mean that's just that's a side piece to this
whole, this whole idea. And I know she said it's just an idea.
But one other thing she said is that she doesn't want these people charged
with felonies. I think this is felony behavior that should be we need to
shut down. And we do not want this in our neighborhood, in our
city. I'm fighting here to keep our city beautiful, safe, where businesses
can flourish. Families can you know, you can raise a family, you
can start a business. Not where businesses are going to start leaving because there's
no enforcement of the law. You know, they can't make a living,
it does, it's not profitable for them. Look in any of these cities
around our country and you you know, targets are shutting down stores or whole
foods because the laws are not being enforced. We need to enforce the law
so that we have a beautiful, safe city where people want to live and
businesses want to come and businesses can flourish. I kind of wish city leaders
had the same approach as let's encourage us by giving them government facilities to commit
crimes. It's like, well, what are we talking about? And the
answer is why not charge them with felonies? If me and a few of
my buddies said, hey, let's shut down I seventy five, it's like
what the highway patrol would be after us and a heartbeat. All I'm saying
is this sends absolutely the wrong message to the next burnout, to the next
fast and furious show up using social media because city leaders have encouraged it by
supporting it. Well, Melissa, I agree with you one hundred percent though,
and you know, and it will lead to more organized crime, and
that's what we don't want here. We've got to be pushing hard and to
keep this where the people know that the rule law is respected. Are we
support our law enforcement, that we will, we will enforce the law,
that penalties will be given appropriately to the severity of the crime. So these
things need to be done, and if we don't do it. We're going
to lose our city and we're going to lose our county. It can't happen,
at least on your watch. It won't happen. All right, let's
continue, Melissa Powers once again, thank you for coming on the Bill Cunningham
Show, and good luck with helping the city try to enforce laws. Good
luck, Thank you all night, Melissa Powers, Hamley County Prosecutor. Let's
continue with more. Hey, felonies are being committed, people's lives are at
risk, stolen cars and guns, burnouts on I seventy one. What the
hell, let's give them the Hamley County Fairgrounds. I'll stop him. Jesus,
Mary and Joseph. Bill Cunningham News Radio seven hundred Wow, when I

We're a little bit of a holding pattern, but as far as we're concerned,
we're never in a holding pattern. We only know one direction that is
forward. But nonetheless, the presidential news conference was scheduled at twelve thirty.
It's now been put off we think till about one fifteen or so, and
the speaker vote is more or less ongoing. They're doing some procedural matters.
We're being told we may have a pope. The smoke is white over the
US Capitol. A guy's name is Johnson. He's from Louisiana. It's been
in Congress about eight years. To me, all of them would have been
acceptable, especially brad Winstrom. I encouraged him to run for a speaker.
He failed to do so. Nonetheless, we'll see what happens. And there's
some speculation that the President may wait to speak at the news conference until we
have white smoke and a new pope, a new speaker, and if that
happens, we'll stay with you throughout the day. We have scheduled later on
a representative of News Nation to report live from the Pentagon about militarily what is
happening. And we're going to see what happens. We'll play it by year.
In the meantime, it's you and I and the American people, and
I find that quite good. A couple issues have arisen done some of these
other interviews around the country about what's happening in the Midwest. It's amazing that
every now and then the BBC out of London will contact me to talk about
the sentiments in middle of America because they hear things in Europe that are not
broadcasted from New York City. We're nowhere close to what New York City is,
although some politicians seek to get us there as soon as possible. When
the Vice Mayor of Cincinnati just suggests that the Hamlet County fair Grounds be turned
over to fast and furious burnout idiots as a solution of the problem, you
know, we're in deep trouble. It's bad, it's getting worse. That's
not a solution, that's an encouragement. And also our vice mayor has said,
don't charge these people with serious crimes called felonies, because really that's overcharging.
It is so refreshing to have Melissa Powers put the cheese on the crackers
in I wait a minute, that is a serious crime. That's a conspiracy.
That's a serious crime that could easily result and many people being killed or
seriously injured. There's large numbers of cars involved. How about one hundred cars
picking out four or five sites through social media and showing up from all over
the Midwest with stolen vehicles with license plates covered, mask on in order to
do burnouts in city streets. And the most reprehensible was inside the lightle tunnel
underneath Western Southern in the LTLE Tunnel, one hundred cars block I seventy one
that backs up traffic through the bridge and for forty five minutes, they video
and film record what's happening with the burnouts and quickly put it on social media,
then quickly go to the next site. As residents are outraged about what's
occurring. What do you do? You hit nine to one to one call
the police. If you listen to Sergeant Dan Hills last week, calling the
police is a worthless, vain act. There's no cop showing up. You're
on your own. Much like New York City, You're on your own San
Francisco, guess what. You're on your own. Police are not going to
come to save you. And civilization as we know it basically is over doesn't
work. And you heard Melissa Piers talk about it. Not on my watch.
It's likely to happen down the road. We're going to get a prosecutor
who's a Democrat, of course, who wants to incentivize bad behavior by paying
for it and give lawbreakers an arena to conduct the acts what At some point
it's going to happen. Of the fifty major urban areas, Cincinnati is like
thirty fourth. Forty nine of the fifty are controlled by Democrats on city councils
in Ohio. Of the seven largest cities, the inquir did a story on
this with Sharon Coolidge. There's one Republican elected in all seven, and that's
Liz Keating here in Cincinnati. She hangs on by her fingertips. Did you
know there's an election going on in the City of Cincinnati City council elections.
They're all peas in the same pod. They all think an act alike.
And so at some point we're going to get a Democratic prosecutor who doesn't want
to enforce the law. In fact, once to give law breakers public facilities
to commit crime. That's our Vice mayor. This is truly unbelievable, but
it's happening. Give me some idea. There's a big federal building complex in
San Francisco called the Nancy Pelosi Federal Buildings. Many many years ago, it
was very one. Hundreds of millions were spent by Nancy Pelosi to get it
done. There's a large open air plaza in front of this large building complex,
and in August, Biden's Secretary for Administration Services her name is Eryl Campbell
issued a memo saying that federal employees must return to work. What a novel
concept. Federal employees must return to work and not work remotely. But then
the especially the female employees and the Nancy Pelosi Federal Building in downtown to San
Francisco, said we can't report. We don't want to report to work,
so emails are sent back and forth. The plaza in front of and the
building itself is dangerous. It's an open air drug market in San Francisco,
with addicts shooting up, snorting and smoking drugs and plane view. Drug users
pass out on public benches, exposing themselves using needles to litter the ground.
Dosing is a common wore outside the Nancy Pelosi Federal Building, with nearly one
hundred and fifty suspected overdoses and over thirty deaths so far this year. On
the block surrounding the Nancy Pelosi Federal Building, dozens of drug dealers show up
daily, one of which will open fire with a gun near the building itself,
striking the third floor. While fencing hasn't put up, Attics and dealers
hang out around the plaza and when it rains or whatever, they go into
the federal building and lay in the hallways. That's what's happening in major American
cities. Here in Cincinnati, it is not unusual for persons to be killed
in Government Square in front of the Potter Stewart Federal Building. It's happening on
a regular basis. It begins with not policing those who break out windows.
It's called the broken window theory of Rudolph Giuliani. So to try to forest
all the drug dealing, the open sex, the snorting of cocaine, and
the deaths, the United States government has put up a ten foot high chain
link wall around the Nancy Pelosi Federal Building, and Nancy Pelosi encouraged that she
apparently has no issue with a wall of fences being erected to protect her federal
office building bearing her name, but of course not on the southern border.
That that is mean. And this story out of San Francisco Chronicle goes on
and on and they make upon editorially quote the Nancy Pelosi Federal Building is a
symbol of the way government works in San Francisco, with offices and workplaces largely
empty due to misguided policies of the federal state and local governments. That's what
the editorial writers are saying. It appears less than ten percent of all the
federal buildings and San Francisco are occupied because employees do not want to show up
for work because they are injured by the criminal element. And when you call
the police, no one comes. When residents at Second and Plumb, I
saw a story on Channel five or five stands for news and the residents were
awakened by the burnouts, the fast and furious acts right there Second and Plumb
in front of pay Course Stadium, and they called the police. And guess
what happened. The police didn't come. Don't have the manpower? Can I
say manpower? I'm sorry, person power to police this one hundred vehicles all
over the Midwest and it's happening on a regular basis. And this is the
Nazi Pelici Federal Building and in Cincinnati. Don't charge individuals who commit crime with
crimes less, decriminalize crime, and then life is going to be so much
better. Secondly, we're going to have the president come up. By thinking
about thirty minutes or so plus the report from the Pentagon Hamas is the worst
enemy of Palestinians now listen to what I just said. Hamas is the worst
enemy of the Palestinians themselves. The Hamas government was elected by the Palestinians,
and Hamas invaded Israel and killed sixteen hundred citizens in a butchery type fashion that
could only be compared to barbarians in the seventh century. Palestinians live lives that
are often terrible because of Hamas. The killing of innocence will not stop Hamas.
Imagine being an objector to Hamas and gossip. What happens to you in
your life it is ruined. In fact, you're murdered, You're killed.
It's almost as if in Nazi Germany in the nineteen thirty seven thirty eight to
thirty nine time frame, if you were a German marching opposing the Nazis,
what happened to you? You were killed. And so this terrorist group has
taken over an entire government. Hamas has taken over the Gaza, Hesballah has
taken over Lebanon, and an extreme brand of Shia fundamentalists have taken over Iran
and those of the country surrounding Israel. So you have Nazi like individuals in
three separate parts coming at you along with Syria and along with the hoodie rebels
in Yemen all over the place. What happens if one country invades another country
killing many of its citizens, taking two hundred or so hostage, not just
killing him, butchering them, raping them, skinning women alive, and beheading
babies in your country, you're invaded by another country, what would America do?
Would America say let's go to the UN and let's have a ceasefire?
I don't think so. What country would accept that kind of invasion by the
leadership of another country? None? Zero. Hamas is the worst enemy of
the Palestinian people. So I have this poll, which it's hard to shock
me in this business. I'm surprised at it. Question was asked on college
campuses by Reuters. Who do you support Hamas or Israel? Now, for
a normal person, that's rather easy of functioning Western style democracy where human rights
are protected, where women have equal rights, where Palestinians, Muslim Catholics and
Jews live together in relative harmony. In Israel where thirty percent of the country
is Palestinian and thirty percent of the Kanesse are Muslims, that's that's Israel.
Or college kids do you support Hamas, who skin women alive, burn men
and then behead babies and rape every female you can find. Well, forty
eight percent of college students in America said we support Hamas my god. Forty
five percent said support Israel. The other seven percent can't find their cheeky fat
asses with both hands. That's where we are in this country, and the
trust in the news media continues to plummet. Used to be as high as
fifty percent, went down to forty percent according to this story. According to
according to Gallup, in nineteen seventy two, the number was all the way
up to thirty six percent. Support for the media is now twenty two percent.
In other words, about four out of five Americans. Here's something in
the news media, and they don't believe it. It's because of headlines like
in the New York Times. You know, the party of record that said,
quote, Israeli airstrike kills hundreds in hospital. Palestinians say, in other
words, Hamas says, then they just go with it. That went on
for many, many hours, up to a day or two. Israeli airstrike
kills hundreds in hospital, which was a lie. So there's a reason the
media has earned the non ability of Americans to believe everything they say. So
let's continue with more. We'll see what happens. I give you examples of
what's happening in major American cities as reported by the papers of record. In
those cities. San Francisco, New York, that's what's happening. Cincinnati is
teetering, and the tri State there's about two point two million people. I
try to spend as much time as possible in Boone, Kenton and Campbell or
Warren County. I was at an event with Pat South and other Great Americans
in Warren County a couple nights ago, functioning quiet African Americans present, men,
women and children. It was in a great Armco State Park. It
was fabulous, And then when you go into the city it smells open air
drug use. Cops are overwhelmed, it's hard to get people that want to
join the police force. And our city is doing so much better than almost
any other city. But if you listen to our Vice mayor, we want
to provide conspiratorial law breakers government space to commit crime. It's like, what
do you want to do? That's what our Vice mayor says, give them
space to commit crime. Well, I hope that those living in Hamleton County,
black and white, Democrat, Republican, etc. Know that the city
could be Chicago or Cleveland, or Detroit or San Francisco or Louisville in a
heartbeat, that the main things we have going for our city is the university
system xavior and U see It's pill Hill on all the great hospitals there.
And the fact that five or six business leaders have decided to continue to pitch
their ten of downtown Cincinnati, like Fifth Third Bank and Procter and Gamble and
Western and Southern and the Joseph Automotive group led by Bobby Joseph have decided to
stay in Cincinnati and help it. One can only imagine if five or six
evil white men make the decision that we can't take it anymore, We're going
to move out. Carl Linder Junior, the Grand Pooh bah Ramsey's the First
was offered all kinds of land in Boone County about twenty years ago to move
American financial out. One can only imagine if that one person had made the
decision to go to Boone County, what would have happened to Fountain Square.
It may be bad now, but believe me, you can get a whole
lot worse. Look at San Francisco, Take a look at what's happening in
liberal San Francisco, and tell me that cannot happen in Cincinnati. Are you
kidding me? It absolutely can happen and will happen in Cincinnati if we continue
on the path that we're on. It's not good. In fact, it's
awful in almost every major American city controlled by liberal Democrats and Marxists over a
period of time. Quote open air drug markets, addicts shooting up, snorting,
smoking drugs, and Plaine View. Drug users pass out on public benches
and used needles litter the ground. Overdosing is a commonplace whore, with one
hundred and fifty suspected overdoses in thirty deaths so far this year. In San
Francisco, on a block where the federal building named after Nancy Pelosi exists,
dozens of dealers show up daily, open fire with a gun near buildings.
If people don't pay, as women are sexually assaulted, there you go.
Is that what you want? I know, if you live in Switzerland or
Boone or Claremont County, you're thinking, well, let them live in their
own filth. That's not my answer. We can't have a functioning try state
without a heart, and whether you like it or not, the heart is
the city of Cincinnati, and it's teetering. Let's continue with more waiting for
the president's schedule. We think about one fifteen, but we'll see this president,
like so many others, are routinely late. But we want to get
the president's remarks. To you. Bill cunning and the Great American with you
every day on news radio seven hundred WLW relive the greatest moment for our treating
com half that I'm bad of the bone, bad of the bone the bowl,
Bill Cunningham, the Great American. Of course, Kelly Meyer is the
News Nation Washington correspondent all things relative to the Pentagon, the White House,
the Congress, Judiciary, all the administrative agencies and more. She's an expert
on everything. Kelly Meyer, welcome again to the Bill Cunningham Show. And
Kelly, as we sit here this Wednesday afternoon, with all hell breaking loose
and the UN Chief Gudez is in some serious difficulties because of what he said
about the conflict, can you kind of give us the view at this point,
it appears there have been many attacks on US military bases in Syria and
in Iraq that American soldiers. I don't think Nun's been killed yet, but
at some point something's going to happen. The strategy appears to be that Iran
wants to draw America deeper into this. So as we sit here this Wednesday
afternoon, give us an overview about what's happening right now in Israel. Yeah,
so, well, right now we are We're at the White House and
we're monitoring President Biden's meeting with Australian Prime Minister here today. Obviously, friends
of mine, is the situation in Israeli Gaza and for the US they've been
watching as just in the past week, there has been an uptick in several
attacks on US troops and bass across the Middle East, Iraq and Syria.
And what we learned from the Pentagon yesterday is more of the specifics. We
learned for the first time that there were around twenty four US troops that were
injured in these attacks. We knew of one death last week, but that
was due to cardiac arrest from a false alarm and they were sheltering and then
suffered cardiac arrests and then later past but then we learned that there were some
more injuries that were previously not disclosed. We also learned that they confirmed the
number of attacks. I believe it was ten in Iraq, three in Syria,
so that they are watching that this might even escalate in the days ahead.
So you're seeing the US really trying to, you know, moving their
positioning. They're moving the USS Eisenhower from the Middle from the Eastern Mediterranean to
the Middle East. They're upping the number of troops unprepared to deploy orders,
and we're just watching for what comes next year. What's amazing is when this
terrible assault took place in October the seventh, and there was a barbaric,
animal like acts of Hamas terrorists that did awful things to men, women and
children and babies. I would have thought by October twenty fifth, October twenty
sixth, by that point, which is now, all hell would be breaking
loose. But now it appears that Biden has persuaded the Israelis to hold back
a military assault into the Gaza. Is that the case? And why is
that? Now that we're hearing reporting of and we may hear more from the
President about this through the day to day. But you know, the on
the face of this, officially the word from the White House was that they
weren't going to tell the Israeli government how to act or what they should to
tell them their military movements. But behind the scenes, we've seen or heard
about this pressure on Israel to delay this ground invasion, to allow humanitarian need
to get in, allow more Americans in god to evacuate, and allow for
more times for the US to position themselves to defend these troops that are coming
under attack. And at this point, I would think you can't have a
military force of this depth and breadth the Israelis on the border and just keep
them there indefinitely waiting for something else to transpire. And every now and then
there's a trickling of hostages. So far about four have been released I understand
today or tomorrow. There's rumors that maybe a large release. That would be
great if more people come out. But at the end of the day,
is there a sense that this attack is inevitable? The only issue is the
timing for an attack you mean by Israel, by Israel into the Gaza,
So that means to be I mean we are kind of monitoring more so the
US intelligence on this. They're not really saying whether or not Israel is going
to do this or not, but I know from the US perspective has been
working, it seems, behind the scenes, to try to delay this and
working toward making sure that we get our American hostages home, in American evacuee's
home. And I think the focus now is just preventing this from becoming a
wider conflict. And I mentioned Iran or the Iran Bak militia groups that they
believe have been conducting these attacks on our US troops and that they feel as
though they are doing this to provoke a wider and seeking a wider escalation here
from the US. And Kelly Meyer of News Nation, I was watching last
night Chris Cuomo and others, and appears last night or the few hours before
last night, there was a big powwow in Lebanon involving representatives of the Iranian
government with Hamas leaders and Hesbel leaders planning the next phase. And so I
find it just amazing that religious leaders in Tehran, Iran, in their religious
garb, are meeting with Hesbela and Amas to plan the next phase of this
attack on Israel, and I would imagine that the region is like a spring
ready to be sprung on responding playing this thing out a little bit in Israel
right now, as far as the correspondence there in Israel, it's like twenty
four to seven. The Israelis are just waiting for the next shoe to drop.
Over the last few days, missiles have come from the South over the
Sinai that were knocked down, Missiles have come from Lebanon, Missiles have come
from Syria, Missiles have come from of course Hesbelah and Hamas. And to
me, it's almost an insoluble situation. And as far as what's happening with
the Congress, it appears we now have a speaker, who's a guy named
Mike Johnson from Louisiana. I guess that's a little more organized, and peers
who we have a speaker? And so at this point, is there a
sense in Washington? Is there a sense in the capital that there is going
to be a large amount of aid going from the American taxpayer to Israel and
to the Ukraine, and god knows who else is that going to be on
the fast track now? I believe so and it was interesting because you heard
even the top Republican in the Senate, Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, speaking
in support of this what they're calling this supplemental package one hundred and five billion
dollars, the majority of that going to Ukraine, but some of it also
going to Israel. It will also go to the border and humanitarian assistance as
well in Ukraine, in Israel, in Gaza. So this looks like it's
going to be something that is a priority for the Biden administration to get this
passed and through. We saw them trying to say that, you know,
we need to get a House speaker employees to get this passed, get this
aid to Israel. But this is all encompassing, and it's interesting to have
the support from top Republican in the Senate because you're going to see how some
House Republicans that may not be keeping this all together in one bill. And
what may happen again is that the new speaker may have to go to the
Democrats and get lots of votes from them in order to get an aid package
for Israel. I had on Senator jd Vance a couple days ago, he
said, there's already three point eight billion dollars in aid to Israel in the
pipeline, And there's many Republicans that don't want to tie together Ukraine which has
different issues with Israel, which has different issues than Ukraine. And there's a
sense that maybe a lot of the Republicans aren't going to support a total omnibus
bill when they want individual arguments. Do you have a sense of how that's
going to it might get more Democratic votes than Republican votes. Isn't there a
sense in the House that we don't want to tie all these issues together,
they should stand on their own separately. Yeah. Absolutely, And it's definitely
going to be another battle up there that you're going to see go down in
terms of what to do with this aid. There's going to be a lot
of people pushing back on more aid for Ukraine. We've seen that over the
last couple of weeks and months that many lawmakers are growing tired of keeping the
support up for Ukraine. But then you hear other Republicans like Mitch McConnell saying
that we have to keep this up, calling this the new access of evil
with China, Russia and Iran, and that they have to continue. This
is something that he hasn't seen in our time. So you're going to see
that argument. You're going to see this battle play out and the push from
the bid administration to get this pass as soon as possible over the next several
weeks, really to try to see this happen by November, you know.
Kelly Meyer of News Nation, I guess we're blessed to live in interesting times,
and there are many days I bet you wish they were less interesting.
As a reporter in Washington, can you describe your daily activities? What do
you have to do every day? You wake up and say, oh my
god, what's going to happen next? Pretty much? I mean, it's
a little bit of a crazy day. For example, I'm just sitting here
at the White House waiting to go get ready for the bilateral meeting press conference
with the Australian Prime Minister and President Biden. We are still doing our live
shots throughout the day Nation, and then also collecting information. I cover the
Pentagon as well, for following the troops movements into turns efforts over there,
and also what's happening down the road on Pennsylvania Avenue at the Capitol and the
speaker battle. There's never a zul moment and here since May twenty fifteen,
and it's been unprecedented times that were sin and I would think all the issues
about the Trumpster have taken a back seat, and that's unbelievable, but that's
always there. A fill in. Well, Kelly Meyer, I don't know
what to say, but I'd like to jump ahead about two years and tell
me how this all is going to turn out. But I know that you
at News Nation will be covering it in Kelly Meyer, once again, thank
you for coming on the Bill Cunningham Show, and we'll see what happens.
Thank you, Thank you, Hi, Kelly Meyer. News Nation. Allright,
let's continue with more. And all I can say is that I pray
to God Israel at the end of the day can survive, that it does
exist and flourishes. And I pray to God these so called religious leaders in
Iran, all dressed in their religious garb, meeting with Hesbla and a Moss
come up with some solution that saves human lives and keep Israel free. I
could not imagine a Christian leader, or any Catholic leader, anyone a religious
leader in this country meeting would say the Ku Klux Klan. Let's meet with
the Klan. They call themselves Christians and they use the burning cross as a
symbol of their devotion to the christ. I could not imagine archbishops and cardinals,
or Episcopalians or crossroads Brian Tom meeting with the Ku Klux Klan to talk
about their activities. But in the Middle East, I guess it's okay for
religious leaders to sit down with Hamas and Hesbela to forge the next front.
Wow, let's continue with more, Bill Cunningham, if a line becomes available

as Carson, we have white smoke over the Capitol. It appears we have
a speaker. Have a text here from Red Winster saying Willie get the white

It's going to be missed a speaker by I think two o'clock today. As
you may know, we have scheduled Joe Biden originally at twelve thirty and then
one fifteen and now whenever. I would think you'd wait until the drama is
finished in the house. And Jim Jordan just stood up and voted for Mike
Johnson of Louisiana directly from Jim Jordan, of course to post Steven Scalise as
a normal, god fearing American, whether it was McCarthy or Scalise, or
Jordan or Johnson in which votes have been taken, any of them would be
acceptable to me to stop what's happening in this country, to try to stop
what's happening in this country, to try the absurdity, the ridiculous aspects of
politics that so many of us are turned off by. I'm amazed at people
like Thomas Massey and Warren Davidson and brad Winstrop, who could make serious money
not being in Congress. All three of them want to sacrifice and actually do
this work. It is so inane, like the three stooges. But that
that's not kind of Mo, Curley and Larry. So unless something really dramatic
happens, there's no votes for others this point, as I speak, Representative
Johnson is one hundred and twelve and Akeem Jeffries, the leftist, I call
him m Keem Gates because Matt Gates keeps voting for him, has about ninety
three votes, and so things go according to Hoyle, whoever Hoyle is,
It's going to end up about two seventeen two eighteen two nineteen for Johnson in
about two ten two twelve for a chem will have a speaker. Things that
go back to normal, as ever normal can be. When forty eight percent
of college students say that they support amas who are rapists, murderers, who
skin pregnant women alive and behead babies, that's where the culture is relative to
the college students who march around supporting amas. It's unbelievable. You can't make
it up, but that's the way it is, and I don't see it
changing to you. Colleges universities have become in doctrination centers. You may go
to a few good colleges, the great majority are captured by the radical left
because that's what you must do to get along on campuses and colleges. Professors
university types are left wing Democrats who became left wing Marxist. Marxism is what's
practiced to the left of socialism on college campuses, and it's almost impossible to
stop. It's like your finger in the dike, and the culture the way
marriage is not respected faith. We need more people like Brian Tom another great
Catholic priest, like Father Benedictin and Father Anthony Browsch and others to lead the
way with Ted McKay. And it's a problem. It's a terrible, terrible
problem when abortion is going to be viewed as a sacrament. I greatly fear
that abortion on demand through birth is going to be acceptable in Ohio, partial
birth, abortion, et cetera. The diminishing of a woman's value in society,
spiritually and otherwise is ongoing. Why would a woman want to be like
a man when they're already so much better? Let's continue one thirty Home of

This is the one thirty report. I'm Matt Reeve s breaking now. About
three weeks twenty two days, there's been no speaker of the US House,
but that appears to be changing right now. One may finally be approved by
the full House. Republican Mike Johnson of Louisiana, Trump's supporter appears to be
headed toward winning a vote underway right now. Johnson is the Republican's fourth nominee,
likening House Republicans' internal struggles to choose a speaker to civil War. House
Democratic whip Catherine Clark slamming the party, saying gets choosing Donald Trump over freedom,
democracy and bipartisanship in a social media post. That reaction coming as Louisiana
Congressman Mike Johnson emerged as House Republicans' fourth nominee for speaker Tuesday. Johnson,
who has earned praise from former President Trump, was among one hundred and forty
seven Republicans who voted to overturn the result of the twenty twenty presidential election.
Justin Finch ABC News Washington votes underway right now and Representative Johnson has one hundred
and thirty five votes currently Hakeem Jeffrey's one hundred and ten. Nobody has voted

have won a trophy. The Orange and Blue are champions a Major League Siders
regular season. That's so badies, Rry go howsonor Tubby. Let me give
you what, buddy, What a moment for the orangein Blue at depsy Cincinnati
will hoist the Supporter Shield. Oh hello, hello, quiet, and I'm
spokes I'm broadcasting for you. Vony. All right, segment. We have
a soccer royalty in the studio. We've we've had we've had trophies in this
room. Will they nothing like this one? Jeff Birning and Matt Brew who's
relatable to ken Brew. He claims him and as his father. He looks
something like him, but he's much taller than healthier. I think he's going
to do a noon to three on the Higgan Doogal show. Something. You
can do it now, Jeff Birning, explain the supporters Shield, which is
weighing at least fifty or sixty pounds. If they're a man like me.
Those Deer Park muscles sure were hoisted in above their head called beer muscles right
there. Explain the trophy. So the Supporter Shield is the trophy given annually
in Major League Soccer when you win the regular season. In the rest of
the world, there is only when you win the championship of the English Premier
Leaguer La Liga Boondes League in Germany, you just win the regular season.
You're the You're the You're the champion. There's no playoffs, there's no playoffs.
Playoffs are a very American thing. It doesn't seem right to me.
All the Phillies about that, Yeah, well yeah, and the Braves and
the Dodgers Orioles, yeah, Brewers. So anyway, we have our playoffs
in America. So MLS Cup starts. We have our first home match in
playoff home match in club history Sunday, Sunday night, eight o'clock. So
what do you play if anyone the winner of tonight's wild card game? Wild
card? This is an American thing between Charlotte and New York Red Bull.
Who's favored to win Red Bull if he's home. Both already we have don't
make any difference. Well, you know we we're the number one seed for
a reason, Bill, So the supporter shield is not about fan support.
It's about winning the regular season. Yes, over the course of about eight
months, thirty four matches, week in and week out, we've been in
first place since May. Why because we have a good team, But why
because you were terrible? I remember you were like in last place. What
happened? Well, while we were in last place, we were still building
behind the scenes like an expansion team. Uh, and we have the best
stadium and we have the best training facility. Then we uh re pivoted with
our soccer leadership. We hired a new GM Chris Albright. Two years ago.
We hired a new head coach, Pat Noonan too. We moved on
from the other guys, Yes we did. I don't want to cause any
controversy. There's none. They moved on to a show greener pastures. And
we have the right soccer leaders who were winners, and carl In and I
from the time we started the club, when we were back at Nipfort,
we were winning in the in the minor leagues. We were the New York
Yankees of Minor League Soccer. But as an expansion team, we weren't very
good on the field, but we we still had good players. But we
got a lot more UH and UH new good players. And but Lucho a
Costas the favorite to a mess I, was the one that said what to
you. You said you got to bring Messi to Cincinnati. He want he
wanted Messi and and Ronaldo here and and he said you got the money,
yeah, and we got and we ended up having Messi come to Cincinnati.
So that was about My wife says I'll look like Ronaldo. What about Rinaldo
playing soccer in Cincinnati? Will that happen? I think it's very possible that
it happens. What if that happens, you better go down to pay Course
Stadium and rent out the Lucas oil Field because it's gonna be nuts. It
would be nuts. But you know we're growing. It's still a growth league.
You know, we're only about twenty six, twenty seven years old,
so it's new. How do you feel about this because you're like the grand
poobah that got everybody together politically. Maybe you had a payoff PG sit and
fill that's a different matter. But whatever that, you didn't do that,
But whatever it took, you got it done. Do you have a sense
of authorship and pride in fatherhood? Have you had a fraternity test to determine
whether you're the father of that shield? Well, I wouldn't say I'm the
father of the shield, but maybe certainly with Karl the father of the brand,
that's for sure. I know why this must be in the possession of
Matt brew It looks like a security guard. He six foot nine, six
foot ten, two hundred and forty five pounds knows a lot about music.
He's like his old man, Matt. Can you talk or not? Are
you able to talk? I can talk, he can talk. Tell me
some things about your dad? Well, I need some dirt. I mean,
did he beat you up as a kid? Did he put you in
a closet? Did he burn you? Can you tell me something about your
dad? Oh? No. I was a disciplined problem. As soon as
I got taller than him and they said, no, you're rolling. Shut
your mouth. Dad. I was the one that was watching wrestling. I
had to get him into the rock back in the day. All right,
let me ask you the question, seg you're ready, go ahead. Give
me the mount Rushmore of pro wrestling. Let me give me my four all
right, I'm not talking about who would win, I mean dominate. I
think number one is Rick Flair, guilty, absolutely true. Number two Paul
Cogan can't argue. Number three Dwayne rock Johnson, Number four Stone Cold Steve
Austin Willie. That is one heck of a mount Rushmore. Give me your
mount Rushmore, Jeff, I'm gonna ask you the mount Rushmore. Andre the
Giant, Well, he would win anything. But as far as you know,
I am about the dream. I think I think Andrea the Giant would
beat up Harambe. Who wins between Harambe and Andrea the Johns. I don't
think any would beats Andre the Giant. You take him over Harambe. I
don't think Andre the Giant could fall into the enclosure. I think he would
be too big for that actually to happen. Wouldn't that be a matchup?
Give me your Mount Rushmore, my Mount Rushmore. I'm with you on Rick
Flair, I'm with you on the Rock, I'm with you on Stone Cold.
My wild card instead of Haul Cogan would be Chris Jericho of Winnipeg,
Canada. Not bad, I think that's out. I think macho Man or
rowdy Roddy Piper, my good friend jyd Let me tell you my rowdy Roddy
Piper story. Are you ready? Geez, get me you ready? Have
you heard this story? No? I did ring announcing and now from parts
unknown down at Riverfront Coliseum. So I became friendly with Pat Patterson, who
was the pro wrestler that often would go with the wrestlers. So I'm in
the locker room and I see Andrea the Giants sitting there on a chair like
one has two chairs and the beer in his hand look a look like an
M and M and his huge guy. And so I struck up a friendship
with Ridy Roddy Piper. I get a call from Pat Patterson about one o'clock
in the morning, living in Camargo Woods in Madeira. He says, Willie,
we got a problem. I said, well, well it's a problem.
He said, uh, Piper's locked up. I said, locked up.
He said, we got to go to Pori, Illinois. I got
to get him out of jail. I said, what did he do?
He said, they said he was drinking and driving. I said that's impossible.
He said, no, it isn't anyway. So I do something.
I call somebody, get him out of jail. I set up a plea
deal. He didn't take the intoxicalizer, didn't walk the line, didn't do
it. Never take the intoxicalizer, never walked the line. Is that correct,
Matt Brew, Our good friend Steve Adams would agree with you. God
rest his soul, God rest him anyway. I set up a deal.
He's going to go in front of a judge. He'd get no time in
jail, he gets probation. And so it's announced in the inquiry. He's
going to show up. I pick him up at the airport. Hot Rod
Roderick G. Toombs, who had five children at that point. So I
take the hot Rod in kent County Court, walking into the court and peel
the hall people on nuts. Rody Ronny he's up there. He's got a
big blue Kentucky shirt on. He's got a blue stripe down his pants.
I said, Rod, you look like you're a billboy. He said,
man a figure in Kentucky. You gotta make Kentucky AND's happy. I said,
okay, rock So I go, I said, okay, Roddy.
We go up there. People are going nuts. The judge wanted his autograph.
That's a different story. So we do the deal and the judge gets
done and says, mister Toombs too. Mbs was his last name. You've
got a good life. You got no prevo. But I didn't go to
Kentucky. I want University of Louisville. And the crowd goes with that.
The right rod hot Rod tears off his jacket and says, go Louisville underneath
on a T shirt. Had the car know what there's ready? He was
ready and believe that he had Murray States number one. He said, I
had all three of them covered. Unbelievable. Now getting back to soccer,
Yes, what is the next five to ten years for FC? Well,
certainly we would plan on more trophies. Can you keep the Supporter Trophy year
after year after year? No, this is the property of the International Supporters
Council and of Matrew is a representative, so he's armed. We went on
the places, we asked for their help and that's why we're Matt's with us
today. Uh. But MLS Cup we would keep and put in the trophy
case so that. Of course the playoff starts on Sunday. Tickets still available,
but really it is just bad brew. You're responsible for that. What
happened? Not sold out? Bought my tickets and there everyone knows. Everyone
Like we just announced were sold out of season tickets. Every game is sold
out. I think people just think, of course it's sold out. I
thought it was sold out. But we still have some tickets. So you
can go to seasonsinnia dot com. What time Sundays eight pm. I'll be

Cincinnati Really a lot more growth opportunity that where we're going. You asked ten
fifteen years from now, people won't even recognize this from our origin. We're
just going to continue to grow internationally. I'm headed down to Argentina here in
a couple of weeks. Watch out for inflation down have some partners down there,
and the gotch America. We're growing over in Europe. Partner Yeah.
Traveling, We're bringing people to pre season. They want to travel, like
what they do with the Reds with spring training. We're going to have more
of that. We're doing our mixed use development. We got our youth academy,
second team. Now what about the coliseum, what about an indoor?
I think this community needs a new arena, the coliseum, no question,
no question. And someone showed up at my door. A couple of weeks
ago said they want to invest three hundred million of their own money in a
new arena. People think it's all public just because that's how it was on
the riverfront. Like they have one of those neighbors, Nice to see you
there. Did you walk over to his house and ask? Then I should,
oh, three hundred million, Yes, we're gonna get a new arena.
Well, don't you need a tenant on a regular basis? Kansas City,
A lot of cities don't have that tenant. And I guess what,
it works a little bit better. It's more profitable because the major league tenant
doesn't take all the money out of it for themselves. You have more availability.
Okay, he said that. Look, if we get a new arena,
who knows, maybe some people call ask about NHL or what about the
indoor bring the silver Backs back? So many of them? Of course?
Yeah, what's that arena? Force? No, No, that was indoor
soccer? Yeah yeah, missile Cincinnati kids. Yeah, that's right. What
about getting a mad Brew to day? Taylor Swift? Would that help at
the soccer games? Matt, are you in? Uh? My wife would
probably object that enough women have that. If Taylor Swift would come to your
game. So that'd be about sure. But well we're gonna have Anthony Munos.
I'd rather have Taylor Swift. But anyway, well, congratulations. You
didn't mention Flying Brian Pillman and he wasn't in your Mount Rushmore. I was
going to be a road manager for him. I was going to walk in

Yes, the cup will be ours, the cup when you get the if
you win the Cup, we win the playoffs, you get the cup.
Yes, and then that's going to travel around. Yes, but this shield
is well, it still can travel around. We can bring it to your

or you're by Mercy and we can take it to undertake the American Financial
you know, I mean, we can do things with it. We're having
a West End Day at the stadium, a community day at the stadium,
so we had it out on the pre you're saying in twenty years this will
be bigger than the Bengals, the Reds, bigger than the NFL, bigger
than major League Baseball. That's certainly where the trends are. And FC Cincinnati
is going to continue to grow and grow. And might you build a brand
new stadium? This one's getting out of day of old. Have you thought
about getting it? He just moved in there. Well, I'm taking a
brand new stadium. How about a new arena that's covered and you somehow play
games? There is that possible? No, I think we have a perfect
size stadium for now, and it's good to have scarcity, but we do
have tickets. Did you build things that would make it grow up? In
other words, you have we have a little bit of growth opportunity. We
do. Jeff Birding, Thank you, Thanks segment, Thank you, You're

American you are than the average American. There you go, the average American

like zero for the last twenty seven and was like zero for guy had a
hit. But my past couple of games was our man from Middletown, Kyle
Schwarber. The rest of them were over and did they have like fifteen home
runs? And yeah, like game three home runs in three or four games
and then all of a sudden boom, Turner and Castellanas were zero for thirty
eight the last thirty eight times they batted zero. We're not talking about hitting
one ten for two zero zero thirty eight, not even on the interstate so
the Phillies fans, she wants to lay in traffic. Where did you get
that banana when homeost guy? In fact, you brought into banana there as
the same banana a rock. There was despair last night in Philadelphia. Despair.

have proven, it doesn't where do you start is where you finish. Yeah,
but in baseball, you gotta get is get into the dance, and
you want to dance them with. The pretty d Backs looked fabulous, fabulous,
and the Reds are as good as the d Backs by two games,
they they would have tied them, the Reds would have gone in. Now
they would be playing in the World Series. Now wouldn't that be something with
the Reds? Could you imagine this town would be nuts? Nuts? That
gonna happen next year or the next year? Are we gonna be in the
the thick the MLB Playoffs seg well, they the stood reporters apron service of

The Bearcats are going to take on Nebraska in Indianapolis in August of twenty twenty
five series. That series was set to begin in twenty twenty, but the
COVID pandemic wiped it out. First time these two programs have met since nineteen
oh six? Who was president of nineteen oh six? Nebraska won that game
forty one to nothing over our beloved Cats. Who was president of nineteen oh
six? Everyone knows that you tell me t R. Yeah, that's what
I was gonna say, Go ahead and do it. Was a Roosevelt Eastern
Eastern Conference wild card match tonight in New York. Red Bulls up against the
Charlotte f C and the winner there has to face the Orange and Blue Sunday
night. Did you hold the trails the Porters shield? My picture is on
Twitter right now or x It's Rocky one and fifty. Check it out.
Check it out now? But nice trophy? Would you give ways about forty
pounds, or you say hard time lifting with four and thirty five but has
trouble picking the thing up. How about this rothweiler ate some woman in orlandoiers
Z, I mean almost consumed her whole. I mean it's not good roth
weller ate a woman. So that was her pet. And she gave the
rod weiler some uh some, a little bit of pot, gave her a
little gummy and about four hours later a lot of people think that's funny to
give their dogs beer. And like that guy in the Alaska Airlines plane about
the mushroom room started going Cooper, shroom. Is that the guy that works
at HEBN. I don't think so. He didn't. He's not facing that
guy takes shroom, thinks shroom takes. I think he did, but he's
not facing eighty three counts of attempted murder that I talked to a pilot about
this. He said, those those switches are in the roof on top of
the pilot and they're right kinds of them. Yeah, he said, all
you gotta do is grab them and pull them. And what it does is
put the flame retardant into the engines and they automatically shut down, it becomes
a giant glider. And they said, when that happens, you may not
be able to start the plane. So it's not the guy's excuse. He
took mushrooms. He did mushrom on. That's what he said. He didn't
sleep for forty hours and he took these things. I don't know. I
don't know, sag do. They don't ask me. I don't know.
I don't know mushroom. It's not the vegetable. It's something else. I
don't like mushroom. It's like a drug, right, a mushrooming now,
according to Jay Ratliff, I heard him on This Morning with Micha McConnell,
I guess now, you know they let pilots sit in the jump seat if
they have to, like you know, catch a flight to go anymore.
Now they're not going to allow that. I talked to you United twenty six
years. He flies seven seven sevens for United. He said, it is
a matter of camaraderie. You need some help. He said, I've sat
on the jump seat hundreds of times. If I'm in Chicago and I want
to go back home to Cincinnati, any airline will put a pilot in the
jump seat if they have an availabil whatever airline professional courtesy, you're in.
And now he said he is shocked. It wasn't a catastrophe because that guy
pulled those down. It's over and he got he could have got one of
them in a choke hold, in which case it so where is the jump
seats? You got the pilot, you got the co pilot, and then
where are two seats right behind it? It's against the wall, and you
just pull it very very small, and you mostly sit down, and you
also engage in conversation. You're there, Yeah, keeping everyone away happy.
Yeah, United pilots passed. Shocking and again in that jumpsit, you gotta
be FAA approved. You got FBI background checks every two years ago through re
certification and not not just okay, Rocky sitting in the jumpsy. He has
no terrorist ties or nothing. He took drugs and what nuts? What did
he take? He took her mushrooms? Well, what about shrooms? This
dog had a shroom. I don't know. I don't know the dog that
had the Every night go to Rodwiler eats woman and see what it says.
Don't think I want to you're sick and this dog looks a little nasty,
and the dog's going nuts on. The woman gave the dog some shrugs,
some shrooms. He's on EBN. How could that happen? Oh, she's
seventy years old too. That's not good. No, no, it's a
different one. Different, definitely, rock Waller had a different woman. Sorry,
he here, he is right there. I mean it's the Smoking Gun
website and says here. In October twenty fourth, Hell, that's yesterday.
After feeding a THC lace gummy to her pet Rothweiler named Louis, a Michigan
woman was attacked by the dog during an hour long ordeal that left the victim
great, grievously injured, drenched in blood. The attack happened in Michigan.
THC is toxic to dogs, and Ken calls aggression. Why are we talking
about this? I have no idea either. The dog came into the bathroom
while I was sitting on a toilet, ripped me off the seat, and
started eating my leg. So she lives, she lives, she's lost some
of her body. Well, and now call her Stump. To Mike Johnson's
new Speaker, you were six, Louie Stump trying seg I'm trying came off
me too, Rocket. No, people are going to go are eating at
this time. Some of the reasons I like to carry my little two thirty
eight a six hour P two thirty eight is because of the Yeah, yeah,
of course I don't want some dog to be chewing on me. What
do you do if you're out walking around uh Indian Hill and suddenly you get
eaten by it? What do you do? I don't know. What do
you do when you're downing over the rhine and you you try to tell someone
they're pulling the wrong way on the street, but then they jump out and
choke you. Today, what do you do? Also, wish you had
a P two thirty eight, even though that that would have made a difference
with it, absolutely, you said Willie. We also say a sad note
today stump Shaft Richard Roundtree has died after a brief battle with pancreatic cancer.
Mister Roundtree was eighty one. Of course, Chaft, Carl Lewis, Clyde
Bennett and Less Danes were known as chef and you try it? I had
remember this one hit it? Isaac Caye Remember Isaac Hayes. Yeah, yeah,
you got you gotta you gotta get it at the right time. Many
here's I got lean I a cop to just kicked jes Thank you, pilot.
Dude. This is sex section will and Stump Louie Glui in my life.
Now do you have a dog in the place of the state in Harrison?
Yeah? Are they rock Wilders. We don't feed him anything like retrievers.
Don't give him any drugs. Okay, absolutely not golden retrievers. It
was a vicious brandishes. Yeah, they'll just lick you, lick you.
Yep. Also on this date, Willie at October the twenty fifth, nineteen
seventy five, forty seven years ago, Evil Canievil made his successful motorcycle jump
at King's Island, jumping fourteen greyhound buses. The bike almost broken half and
he said afterwards that's it jump, that's his last ju that and then he
has a He'll go over half of the nation on TV watch the fifty imagine
is there any is there any event at all? The fifty percent of the
nation would watch super Bowl might have one hundred out of three. I might
have one third one third. Yeah. The night before spent two hours with
Bob Trumpy on sports talk. Remember that I don't. But he broke he
cracked his pelvis when he came. He's more famous for a crashing than he
was. Landing Las Vegas was a bad one. Well, he jumped the
jump the fountain at Caesar's Palace. Remember that he didn't make it. He
barely made it. That uh a snake river. Remember he was going to
jump the Grand Canyon in every rocket. Did you ever have him on your
show? No? But Trump he had meeting. He was amazing rock.
I mean I was downstairs on four Street waiting for him, and he had
he had a he had hair about five feet high, and I'm thinking that's
either Elvis Presley or or Evil Canieval. He was cut nicest guy in the
world. Afterwards, he opens up this this briefcase. What's your name,
Bob, Evil canievl Happy Landings? There you go, Doug Kid, what's
your name? Seg happy landing? I mean, just he went over every
jump? Yes, are you sure he's dead? Not gonna ask me to
say hawk time anymore? No, So there you go. But he was
supposed to stay an hour. He said the heck with it, I'm going,
and and he went through every jump. Every body part that he was.
I mean, it was incredible how it all started. Interview anywhere I
think is trying to get it off the tape. The Trumpster did the Olympics,
and he did the Super Bowls and then he us bigger than Chris Collins
and he didn't lose balls in the end zone the cost of Bengals Super Bowl.
So two was this guy is probably a year and a half ago.
Now, I I was the MC of the Oh god was it the art
Logan Wilson, the the Right to Life? Since I write The Life Right
and uh, Anthony Munhos, Dave Lapham and Bob Trumpy were the guests.
So I am cedd deal and Bob Trumpy sat at the same table with my
wife. My wife doesn't know Bob Trump is, but after after the whole
thing's over, she goes, oh my god, this sweet and nicest,
sweetest old man sat next to me talk blah blah blah. I'm like,
honey, it's Bob Trumpy, the main man. Bob Trumpy. He's like
a big deal here and since and I had no idea, but she thought
he was just the greatest thing in the world because he gets Trump. He
is a good man. Amen, what's on the big show today? Rock
Eddie's out again. I'm with Jason Williams. Right out of the eight.

having to like cumulatively, like come together and buy houses like two and three
and four friends on w CBO. Yes, Harrison you can find everyone should
move to Harrison and public housing. And also at four o'clock, say you
might want to listen to this list. Say if you read the story about
how in Cole Rain they may be taking the youth field that the youth football
team practice is on. I heard about this fire station, there's an where
the kid's going to practice. Seeming they're not practicing now anyway, what was
the Waller Corn Township trustee? And a good guy, he's going to join
us a talk. Ask him what happened to Cole Rain football? Will you?
Well, they need a place of practice practice then they can get better.
