WEBVTT 1 00:00:02.720 --> 00:00:06.320 Welcome to this glorious Tuesday afternoon the tri State. And of course, allegedly 2 00:00:06.360 --> 00:00:09.519 there's bad weather coming. We'll see how accurate the weather man are. In 3 00:00:09.599 --> 00:00:12.199 about an hour or so, we have Governor Mike Dwaine will be here to 4 00:00:12.279 --> 00:00:16.359 give us a State of Ohio address about what's right, what's wrong? Do 5 00:00:16.480 --> 00:00:20.839 public schools really have about six billion dollars in extra money? Should there be 6 00:00:20.920 --> 00:00:24.559 a state income tax? And what about marijuana regulation, et cetera and more. 7 00:00:24.640 --> 00:00:28.120 But until then, Melissa Powers, of course is Hamiley County Prosecutor. 8 00:00:28.320 --> 00:00:31.480 And Melissa Powers, welcome again to the Bill Cunningham Show. And first of 9 00:00:31.519 --> 00:00:34.560 all, before we talk about Marymont High School, what's happening there? I 10 00:00:34.640 --> 00:00:39.039 noticed that you were personally in court, which the prosecutor only shows up for 11 00:00:39.079 --> 00:00:42.479 important cases because you got one hundred and twenty five staff members doing this stuff. 12 00:00:42.840 --> 00:00:46.520 But you were in court yesterday about the Coleraine High School kid fifteen years 13 00:00:46.560 --> 00:00:52.880 old who allegedly punched a sixty year old female teacher in the head, causing 14 00:00:53.000 --> 00:00:58.600 profound injuries and also attacked another fifteen year old And can you tell the American 15 00:00:58.600 --> 00:01:00.000 people, first of all, what were the fact of this that happened on 16 00:01:00.039 --> 00:01:04.159 her about the first week in January. With all these things happening, maybe 17 00:01:04.400 --> 00:01:08.400 many times people forget about the facts what actually happened the first week in January 18 00:01:08.599 --> 00:01:14.599 at Coleraine High School involving this fifteen year old, there was a sixty year 19 00:01:14.640 --> 00:01:21.799 old teacher who her career has been in teaching attacked viciously by a student and 20 00:01:22.359 --> 00:01:29.280 she was repeatedly punched in the head so many times that her the skull cap 21 00:01:29.319 --> 00:01:34.400 had to be removed in order to allow the swelling of the brain, and 22 00:01:34.680 --> 00:01:38.480 she was in the hospital for an extended period of time, many weeks. 23 00:01:38.040 --> 00:01:42.159 At one point she could not eat on her own, she had a feeding 24 00:01:42.200 --> 00:01:45.159 tube, she had a breathing tube. She couldn't breathe on her own. 25 00:01:45.879 --> 00:01:51.239 Neurologically, she was not responding. We were concerned whether she was going to 26 00:01:51.239 --> 00:01:57.599 pull through, and luckily she has. She cannot walk without assistance. She's 27 00:01:57.640 --> 00:02:04.799 in now at rehab trying to regain all of her motor skills, and I 28 00:02:04.840 --> 00:02:07.439 would imagine there's going to be a traumatic brain injury as a result of the 29 00:02:07.479 --> 00:02:15.280 beating that this young man with his own bare hands almos killed his teacher and 30 00:02:15.599 --> 00:02:21.199 luckily she survived this attack and it was completely unprovoked for no reason whatsoever. 31 00:02:21.639 --> 00:02:27.520 According to Defense counsel, Defense Council indicates Clyde Bennett that he had taken some 32 00:02:27.560 --> 00:02:32.759 sort of vape cartreach and inhaled it containing some ugly substance that caused him to 33 00:02:32.800 --> 00:02:38.039 act this out. Of course, you and I know that if you're drunk 34 00:02:38.120 --> 00:02:39.800 or you're on drugs, that didn't give you an excuse to do whatever it 35 00:02:39.919 --> 00:02:44.360 is you want to do. You're not responsible anymore as long as it was 36 00:02:44.439 --> 00:02:49.080 voluntary. But there was a lot of testing done on this so called vape 37 00:02:49.120 --> 00:02:52.599 cartridge. What was the result of that. Well, first of all, 38 00:02:52.639 --> 00:02:55.080 you're absolutely right, it's no defense that he was under the influence of any 39 00:02:55.159 --> 00:03:00.840 type of chemical or alcohol. But in this matter, they did not test 40 00:03:00.879 --> 00:03:04.319 the pen because that's really irrelevant. It's what was in his system at the 41 00:03:04.360 --> 00:03:08.599 time of the attack, I believe, And so basically the toxicology report came 42 00:03:08.639 --> 00:03:15.919 back trace amounts the THHC and his blood and the thhd metabolite, very very 43 00:03:15.080 --> 00:03:22.039 minor amount. We're not even sure if that was ingested on that day that 44 00:03:22.159 --> 00:03:28.039 morning. Most likely there might have been some on that day, but in 45 00:03:28.080 --> 00:03:30.560 his urine. It was present, which means there was some past use at 46 00:03:30.560 --> 00:03:36.319 some point, and then the serum is probably what happened that day. But 47 00:03:36.360 --> 00:03:42.000 I mean, we're talking point zero zero two megagrams per leader and his blood 48 00:03:42.039 --> 00:03:46.759 of THHC and point zero zero nine, so very very minor amount. So 49 00:03:46.879 --> 00:03:53.120 this had absolutely no impact whatsoever on his behavior. He cannot use this to 50 00:03:53.280 --> 00:04:00.599 mitigate his his violence and rage that he inflicted on his teacher. So if 51 00:04:00.639 --> 00:04:03.039 this was if this fifteen year old was in a car or a sixteen year 52 00:04:03.080 --> 00:04:08.280 old was driving and he was pulled over and had a point zero zero two 53 00:04:08.960 --> 00:04:14.639 metabolites relative to the serum prognostication, this would not even result with a DUI 54 00:04:15.039 --> 00:04:17.800 because this was a very low trace amount that should have had no impact in 55 00:04:17.839 --> 00:04:23.199 his judgment. You're absolutely right, or on his motor skills, his judgment, 56 00:04:23.319 --> 00:04:27.319 his motor skills, he had absolutely zero impact. And as far as 57 00:04:27.319 --> 00:04:31.240 Clyde Bennett, he's saying he wants an independent test being done, is out 58 00:04:31.319 --> 00:04:36.360 ongoing now and what's going to happen next in this case? He made that 59 00:04:36.399 --> 00:04:40.879 request in front of the judge, and the judge to grant him the opportunity 60 00:04:40.920 --> 00:04:44.680 to have an independent test. But you can test this five ten times by 61 00:04:44.959 --> 00:04:50.399 I don't care how many different independent testers you know, a forensic scientist, 62 00:04:51.120 --> 00:04:55.040 they'll all come up with the same result. We're confident in this result. 63 00:04:55.360 --> 00:04:59.879 The Hamilton County Crime Lab up at the Coroner's office, Robert TODP. Miller, 64 00:05:00.199 --> 00:05:03.439 he's probably the most premier expert in this area in the entire state. 65 00:05:03.920 --> 00:05:09.800 So we do not doubt the results of his analysis here whatsoever. And we 66 00:05:09.879 --> 00:05:13.160 believe that even if it's tested, you know, you can tell, as 67 00:05:13.199 --> 00:05:16.199 long as we've got sample and keep testing it, it will come up with 68 00:05:16.240 --> 00:05:19.079 the same result. Nothing, it will be different. They also did a 69 00:05:19.199 --> 00:05:23.600 screen for you know, a general drug screen to see if there's any other 70 00:05:23.680 --> 00:05:28.639 drugs, and no drugs were detected. The only thing in his system in 71 00:05:28.639 --> 00:05:33.680 his blood urine was a marijuana metabolite which is a THHD. Yeah, and 72 00:05:33.720 --> 00:05:36.480 so as a prosecutor, you would like to try him as an adult. 73 00:05:36.680 --> 00:05:41.879 And can you explain because you spent I think ten to twelve years as a 74 00:05:41.959 --> 00:05:46.279 juvenile court judge binding over criminals to adult court and now you're the prosecutor. 75 00:05:46.279 --> 00:05:49.040 There's probably no person ever in the position of Hamley County and its history. 76 00:05:49.279 --> 00:05:54.720 That has more knowledge about juvenile court and prosecuting the Melissa powers. Because you've 77 00:05:54.959 --> 00:05:59.120 had your feet in both kingdoms, Can you explain why you want to bind 78 00:05:59.160 --> 00:06:03.639 this thing over to adult court for this fifteen year old. Well, first, 79 00:06:03.680 --> 00:06:05.879 let me just give you a correction. It was six years over in 80 00:06:05.959 --> 00:06:11.000 juvenile court, but sixteen total. As a judge that in juvenile court, 81 00:06:11.360 --> 00:06:15.920 there's a process it's called a bind over hearing, in which there is a 82 00:06:15.959 --> 00:06:20.160 statute that's followed by the judge and the attorneys will argue whether or not there's 83 00:06:20.199 --> 00:06:27.560 different factors in favor of bindover and there's different factors against bindover. One of 84 00:06:27.560 --> 00:06:30.800 the main questions there will be a psychological evaluation. They do a deep dive 85 00:06:30.839 --> 00:06:35.519 into their social history, family history, criminal history. There's an entire picture 86 00:06:35.519 --> 00:06:42.959 that is presented. Is that by a psychologist. Probation does a report as 87 00:06:43.000 --> 00:06:46.800 well if there's been any prior history. My understanding is cold did not have 88 00:06:46.879 --> 00:06:51.199 any prior criminal history whatsoever. The charges are so serious that this is a 89 00:06:51.279 --> 00:06:58.800 case that would also be that charges themselves is considered as a factor and the 90 00:06:58.879 --> 00:07:02.160 process and been part of the analysis that the judge will be doing as to 91 00:07:02.199 --> 00:07:09.079 whether or not the child should be facing penalties in the adult system, or 92 00:07:09.120 --> 00:07:15.360 whether or not juvenile system can handle and appropriately punish as well as rehabilitate the 93 00:07:15.480 --> 00:07:19.680 child in the juvenile system. So he's turning sixteen, that gives us five 94 00:07:19.800 --> 00:07:25.879 years in the juvenile system, and whether or not that's enough time to rehabilitate 95 00:07:25.920 --> 00:07:30.319 the child but also give the appropriate punishment, and that may be, but 96 00:07:30.360 --> 00:07:36.800 the evaluation is basically as the child physically, emotionally and psychologically mature enough to 97 00:07:36.879 --> 00:07:42.959 be able to handle the adults and the penalties and sanctions if convicted in the 98 00:07:42.959 --> 00:07:46.600 adult system, that's ultimately the question. And in this case, as you 99 00:07:46.639 --> 00:07:51.759 know, he almost killed this teacher, and a teacher should be held at 100 00:07:51.759 --> 00:07:55.879 a high I think at a very high regard. They're helping our children, 101 00:07:55.920 --> 00:08:00.439 and they're in the future of our of our you know, of our population 102 00:08:00.639 --> 00:08:03.879 and our citizens in our community. But also the main thing is how severe 103 00:08:05.000 --> 00:08:09.199 this beating was. The extent of the injuries that her life has changed for 104 00:08:09.279 --> 00:08:13.839 the rest of our lives and that's a long time impact. And so the 105 00:08:13.879 --> 00:08:16.040 first part that will be presented to the judge, and it's all within the 106 00:08:16.120 --> 00:08:20.759 judges discretion, was a crime committed and whether or not he was identified as 107 00:08:20.759 --> 00:08:24.560 the person that committed the crime. So that's the probable cause hearing. And 108 00:08:24.600 --> 00:08:30.920 then the second piece is whether he's amenable to rehabilitation within the juvenile system. 109 00:08:31.360 --> 00:08:33.679 And then that's where they looked at the psychological and do the deep dive into 110 00:08:33.679 --> 00:08:37.759 his background. So this wasn't like one punch. Maybe it was a no, 111 00:08:39.120 --> 00:08:41.919 it was multiple, multiple he had time to reflect upon his fist is 112 00:08:41.960 --> 00:08:46.320 smashing into this six year old woman's face in her head, and he's watching 113 00:08:46.360 --> 00:08:50.480 the results. And he continued to beat her after it was obvious she was 114 00:08:50.559 --> 00:08:54.279 unconscious and terrible condition, defenseless, she was dissenseless and she could not do 115 00:08:54.399 --> 00:08:58.679 anything. Yes, he kept beating her in the head over and over, 116 00:08:58.480 --> 00:09:01.440 and thankful he stopped. I'm not sure. I don't know enough at this 117 00:09:01.559 --> 00:09:05.360 point as to what happened. If somebody intervened to make him stop, or 118 00:09:05.399 --> 00:09:09.679 he stopped on his own. I don't know that information yet. All right, 119 00:09:09.720 --> 00:09:11.720 So when's the next hearing on this fifteen year old of Coraine High School. 120 00:09:13.399 --> 00:09:15.519 I don't have any time. I mean, I think it's in April. 121 00:09:16.120 --> 00:09:20.759 They wanted. They requested longer time the defense did so that they could 122 00:09:20.840 --> 00:09:26.600 to the independent evaluation of the of the of his blood and urine. And 123 00:09:26.600 --> 00:09:28.159 you're going to keep trying to get him over now. Clyde Bennett, who's 124 00:09:28.200 --> 00:09:33.159 a pretty good criminal defense attorney, says that this was his first time he's 125 00:09:33.200 --> 00:09:37.919 blaming this this vape situation. And I think probably the marijuana was in his 126 00:09:39.000 --> 00:09:43.120 system before he vaped or whatever, and as a consequence, he's only a 127 00:09:43.240 --> 00:09:45.480 child, he should stay in the system. But on the other hand, 128 00:09:45.759 --> 00:09:48.360 when you commit almost the murder, this is close to an attempt at murder. 129 00:09:48.519 --> 00:09:52.600 Felonius assault a terrible and you had time to reflect upon what you're doing 130 00:09:52.639 --> 00:09:56.960 as you're beating this woman on the on the floor, you had time to 131 00:09:56.000 --> 00:10:00.679 reflect. You think that because of the nature of the fish bousness of this 132 00:10:00.759 --> 00:10:05.679 attack, this is beyond someone stealing potato chips from Walmart. This is a 133 00:10:05.759 --> 00:10:11.519 serious situation and you want to trade it seriously. Absolutely, that's exactly right. 134 00:10:11.559 --> 00:10:15.480 Though, I mean, this could have been a murder case. Luckily 135 00:10:15.519 --> 00:10:18.240 it's not. That the injuries are so severe and like I said, her 136 00:10:18.279 --> 00:10:22.919 life has been forever changed, and the level of the rage and the viciousness 137 00:10:24.279 --> 00:10:30.120 makes him a dangerous person. Obviously, we want to see the entire analysis 138 00:10:30.200 --> 00:10:35.240 also as when it's completed. I mean, maybe we have a different position 139 00:10:35.320 --> 00:10:39.799 after we see more that at this point at this point and the investigation is 140 00:10:39.840 --> 00:10:45.639 still ongoing as well, that at this point in time, I believe that 141 00:10:45.720 --> 00:10:50.320 the appropriate place for the penalties to keep the public protected would be in the 142 00:10:50.360 --> 00:10:54.200 adult system. So if you would do this to a sixty year old defenseless 143 00:10:54.240 --> 00:10:58.480 woman, one can only imagine if this rage continues, that he would inflict 144 00:10:58.480 --> 00:11:03.120 it upon us and he's going to kill the next person. And I'm with 145 00:11:03.200 --> 00:11:07.480 you one thousand percent on this one. It's sad and I do you have 146 00:11:07.559 --> 00:11:09.559 a hope? I could say, in the good old days, this kid 147 00:11:09.639 --> 00:11:13.720 was going to be tried as an adult because he committed an adult crime. 148 00:11:13.639 --> 00:11:20.840 Are you confident this is going to be bound over? I don't have everything 149 00:11:20.840 --> 00:11:24.519 in front of me, and it's hard for me to make that judgment at 150 00:11:24.519 --> 00:11:28.639 this point, only because we still have the whole psychological analysis that has to 151 00:11:28.679 --> 00:11:33.279 be done. And then a background into is you know, going a deep 152 00:11:33.320 --> 00:11:37.200 dive into a social history, family history, you know, so, but 153 00:11:37.279 --> 00:11:41.799 at this point in time where we are right now, I believe, based 154 00:11:41.840 --> 00:11:45.480 on the severity of the crime, he should be in the adult system to 155 00:11:45.559 --> 00:11:48.759 face the is a punishment in the adult system to protect the public. All 156 00:11:48.840 --> 00:11:52.919 right, let's talk about Marymount High School. There was an order about a 157 00:11:52.919 --> 00:11:58.480 week ago by Colorado Springs officials that put this twenty two or twenty three year 158 00:11:58.480 --> 00:12:03.440 old under a protective order that he can't own a gun. And there's some 159 00:12:03.240 --> 00:12:07.960 thinking that because he's autistic. I spoke to some Marrymont parents and I spoke 160 00:12:09.000 --> 00:12:11.759 to two of them. One of them said, absolutely, I don't want 161 00:12:11.759 --> 00:12:15.039 my daughter on a list to be killed and raped. This kid needs to 162 00:12:15.039 --> 00:12:18.600 be treated like an adult. Otherwise, some other parents are saying, well, 163 00:12:18.679 --> 00:12:22.840 autism is a serious condition. It just towards someone's view of reality. 164 00:12:22.879 --> 00:12:26.279 Of course, Elon Musk is autistic. He's done pretty well with that disorder. 165 00:12:26.360 --> 00:12:31.039 But nonetheless, what is the status of the Merrymont case now? And 166 00:12:31.720 --> 00:12:35.360 may you, may you, can you answer the question why is Colorado officials 167 00:12:35.399 --> 00:12:39.799 not arresting the twenty two year old? Well, let me begin first with 168 00:12:39.879 --> 00:12:46.000 Colorado. In Colorado, the investigation is still ongoing. We have the demand's 169 00:12:46.039 --> 00:12:50.799 computer, his gaming system, and his cell phone. In the meantime, 170 00:12:50.919 --> 00:12:56.200 while they're still doing the forensic dive into that information, because if I said, 171 00:12:56.200 --> 00:13:00.399 the investigations on going and you know that kind of that takes time to 172 00:13:00.519 --> 00:13:05.600 break in and find things that were deleted and to see exactly get a full 173 00:13:05.600 --> 00:13:09.799 picture of what was going on on that man's end. In the meantime, 174 00:13:09.879 --> 00:13:11.679 they did the right thing, which is prevent him from being able to purchase 175 00:13:11.720 --> 00:13:16.159 any type of firearm. So we know that he's on that list and so 176 00:13:16.200 --> 00:13:22.960 he'll be flagged and keep the public safe from what we've seen, you know, 177 00:13:22.080 --> 00:13:26.440 in the preliminary stages of the investigation in marymant and this is basically through 178 00:13:26.480 --> 00:13:33.759 what we have here and some of the communications through the students done and they 179 00:13:33.799 --> 00:13:39.159 have not I don't have the results yet of his gaming system, his computer, 180 00:13:39.000 --> 00:13:43.200 all of that was seized in a search warrant, so that is being 181 00:13:43.240 --> 00:13:48.519 looked into and you know, to be able to uncover if anybody else involved, 182 00:13:48.279 --> 00:13:52.919 exactly what they were talking about, what they were planning. So that's 183 00:13:52.000 --> 00:13:58.639 that's what's happening now. So it's still we don't have a full picture the 184 00:13:58.840 --> 00:14:03.879 young man that's the student here in Marymott. I don't know if we don't 185 00:14:03.879 --> 00:14:09.799 know his psychological evaluation yet. We haven't received that yet. The defense is 186 00:14:09.840 --> 00:14:15.039 only asked for competency. I believe that he'll be found competent. The competency 187 00:14:15.120 --> 00:14:18.120 is just basically, does he understand, you know, what's going on in 188 00:14:18.159 --> 00:14:20.639 court, the purpose of a judge, what the defense does, what the 189 00:14:20.639 --> 00:14:24.200 prosecutor does, what a meaning of a not guilty plea, a guilty plea, 190 00:14:24.240 --> 00:14:26.960 et cetera. I think he'll be fine on that from what we can 191 00:14:28.039 --> 00:14:31.919 tell just in his his communications on his phone that we've received and shared. 192 00:14:33.000 --> 00:14:35.639 I think, you know, most of that was shared with the media. 193 00:14:35.399 --> 00:14:39.480 He should be able to. I think he'll be found competent. The defense 194 00:14:39.600 --> 00:14:43.360 is just making sure they're covering all their bases, so it slows the process 195 00:14:43.399 --> 00:14:48.240 down a bit. As far as being in the courtroom on the investigation side, 196 00:14:48.399 --> 00:14:50.720 this is every day they're still working on it and pursuing it. We're 197 00:14:50.759 --> 00:14:54.799 getting updates, you know, photos are being pulled off, et cetera, 198 00:14:56.000 --> 00:15:00.600 and looking at what's happening there. As far as should be tried as an 199 00:15:00.600 --> 00:15:07.279 adult or not, again, the seriousness is so frightening that my concern is 200 00:15:07.320 --> 00:15:11.679 always first is to make sure are we protecting the public, and so file 201 00:15:11.919 --> 00:15:16.679 for the bind over is preserving our opportunity that we can pursue. That is 202 00:15:16.720 --> 00:15:22.840 again, as investigation goes on, excuse me, or psychological evaluation may change 203 00:15:22.840 --> 00:15:26.279 our minds that this is not appropriate, then we may take that off the 204 00:15:26.360 --> 00:15:31.200 table. But as of now, and as of what I believe that what 205 00:15:31.320 --> 00:15:35.120 I know now, the appropriate place and form for this case to be heard 206 00:15:35.200 --> 00:15:39.159 is in the adults, where adult sanction, adult court, where adult sections 207 00:15:39.159 --> 00:15:43.639 can be imposed. At your news conference, you spoke about the eight kids 208 00:15:43.840 --> 00:15:48.519 list raping some of the female students. Also, he practiced shooting at a 209 00:15:48.639 --> 00:15:54.399 range, and I can't imagine he had to do some action further into the 210 00:15:54.399 --> 00:15:58.799 conspiracy. Other than fanciful, some think this was simply a fourteen year old 211 00:15:58.279 --> 00:16:03.919 and some family sea land, no relationship to reality. But when you take 212 00:16:03.000 --> 00:16:06.759 pen to paper, right list down of people you're going to kill, the 213 00:16:06.799 --> 00:16:10.440 staff you're going to kill. You have the text messages back and forth with 214 00:16:10.480 --> 00:16:14.679 this twenty two year old in Colorado, and further into the conspiracy, then 215 00:16:14.720 --> 00:16:19.960 he goes to a shooting range to fire weapons. I think this is a 216 00:16:19.960 --> 00:16:23.039 normal guy. I think shooting at the range for a fourteen year old who's 217 00:16:23.080 --> 00:16:30.480 autistic is a further act of the conspiracy. What part did the shooting at 218 00:16:30.519 --> 00:16:36.519 the range play in your decision? Well, as you said it was, 219 00:16:36.919 --> 00:16:41.879 we're considering that as one of the overt acts and further intoid the conspiracy to 220 00:16:41.919 --> 00:16:45.320 actually commit the crime. We have more information that I'm not disclosing at this 221 00:16:45.440 --> 00:16:52.320 point, but that you have the gist of it, and that can justify 222 00:16:52.720 --> 00:16:56.840 as charging them under how we charge them with the conspiracy. It's amazing you 223 00:16:56.840 --> 00:17:02.200 have fourteen and fifteen year olds almost ordering a teacher in classrooms, and then 224 00:17:02.279 --> 00:17:06.640 you have a fourteen year old at Marymont High School who wants to kill his 225 00:17:06.759 --> 00:17:12.000 classmates and rape a girl. To female students and shooting at ranges. Yeah, 226 00:17:12.160 --> 00:17:15.400 Juvenile court is not what it used to be. Melissa Powers, thank 227 00:17:15.480 --> 00:17:18.440 you, keep doing what you're doing. God bless you, and we'll check 228 00:17:18.440 --> 00:17:22.240 in with you later on as more events transpired. Melissa Powers, thank you 229 00:17:22.319 --> 00:17:26.559 very much. You're welcome. Thank you. Though, let's continue with more. 230 00:17:26.599 --> 00:17:29.200 As I said, the Governor's coming up a little bit later in today's 231 00:17:29.240 --> 00:17:33.839 Big Show. But fourteen and fifteen year olds beating teachers half to death in 232 00:17:33.880 --> 00:17:38.119 classrooms and then preparing to buy guns to shoot up Marymont High School. Those 233 00:17:38.119 --> 00:17:42.440 are fourteen and fifteen year olds. Let's continue with more. Bill Cunningham News 234 00:17:42.559 --> 00:17:48.680 Radio seven hundred WW. In this week's Marketers Report, Chris Brandt, Chief 235 00:17:48.720 --> 00:17:53.160 marketing Officer Chapotlin Mexican Grill weighs in on the power of audio. We've used 236 00:17:53.319 --> 00:17:57.720 audio to reinforce what we're showing on TV, what we're showing in other digital 237 00:17:57.799 --> 00:18:02.839 channels. When you're I already is driving reach boy, everybody seems to listen 238 00:18:02.880 --> 00:18:07.079 to the radio. As the number one audio company, iHeartMedia gives marketers access 239 00:18:07.119 --> 00:18:11.680 to the audience's conversations, trusted influencers, insights and data you need to grow. 240 00:18:11.799 --> 00:18:15.039 If you're a marketer, go to iHeart results dot Com. What's holding 241 00:18:15.079 --> 00:18:19.279 you back from learning the language You've always wanted to do talk radio at least 242 00:18:19.319 --> 00:18:22.839 to me, and you are as like seeds and knowledge planet to sprout fruit 243 00:18:22.920 --> 00:18:27.200 later on in life. It is food for your brain. And we want 244 00:18:27.240 --> 00:18:30.640 to thank Melissa Powers for coming on. And she has spent I don't know 245 00:18:30.799 --> 00:18:34.960 fifteen twenty years as a judge. Now before that, she's spent fifteen years 246 00:18:34.960 --> 00:18:38.960 in the prosecutor's office. Now she's back as the appointed soon to be elected 247 00:18:40.039 --> 00:18:44.720 county prosecutor in November. If people know what they're doing, and if you 248 00:18:44.720 --> 00:18:48.440 don't know what we're doing, the country's a mess, goes voters asked for 249 00:18:48.480 --> 00:18:53.720 it. Think about this city council went through the last four or five years, 250 00:18:55.079 --> 00:19:02.759 a circumstance where the majority you runder criminal investigation result in three either going 251 00:19:02.839 --> 00:19:07.160 to federal prison or having served their sentence, and another one who violated certain 252 00:19:07.200 --> 00:19:11.799 other laws and rules and regulations. But all were under a criminal investigation by 253 00:19:11.839 --> 00:19:17.359 the FBI and by the State of Ohio and other sources because of the misbehavior 254 00:19:17.359 --> 00:19:22.160 they engaged in. Now you would think that if you had numerous members of 255 00:19:22.240 --> 00:19:26.680 city council going to federal prison, that the voters of Cincinnati might say, 256 00:19:26.720 --> 00:19:30.000 you know what, we're on the wrong track here, man. We keep 257 00:19:30.039 --> 00:19:33.759 voting the same way anticipating different results, and that's the definition of insanity. 258 00:19:34.200 --> 00:19:38.359 We can't continue to do this. We better put someone like Liz Keating back 259 00:19:38.400 --> 00:19:42.319 on city council because she's been there for a few years. She gets if 260 00:19:42.319 --> 00:19:47.880 she plays well with others. She's the one non Democrat in the room. 261 00:19:48.359 --> 00:19:52.759 The Charter eight party is completely collapsed, so they're all liberal Democrats. Now, 262 00:19:52.799 --> 00:19:55.799 you would think that would make some sense of voters who say, you 263 00:19:55.839 --> 00:19:57.240 know what, we got to change direction here, man, this isn't working. 264 00:19:57.960 --> 00:20:00.480 Look at what's happening in the city of Cincinnati, and we don't like 265 00:20:00.519 --> 00:20:04.119 it. Brian Combs had it this morning. This year in the city, 266 00:20:04.119 --> 00:20:07.799 that's going to be about four to five hundred people shot and eighty to ninety 267 00:20:07.880 --> 00:20:14.559 murdered. And that doesn't take into account all of the other offences, the 268 00:20:14.599 --> 00:20:18.319 mass beatings downtown, breaking into cars, things of that character that's continuing anyway. 269 00:20:18.839 --> 00:20:22.160 So you would think voters would say, in the city of Cincinnati, 270 00:20:22.160 --> 00:20:26.400 we got to change direction because what we're doing is not working. Cincinnati public 271 00:20:26.440 --> 00:20:32.960 schools, the public school system in Cincinnati is terrible. There's about five thousand 272 00:20:32.960 --> 00:20:37.640 every day that'll even show up chronically absent. About seventy percent of black boys 273 00:20:37.680 --> 00:20:42.839 are chronically absent from school. That's a problem. So you would think the 274 00:20:42.920 --> 00:20:47.480 voters might say, you know what, I think we're on the wrong track 275 00:20:47.519 --> 00:20:52.440 here. We might try to elect somebody different to the school board. Now, 276 00:20:52.440 --> 00:20:55.799 the problem may not be the school board. The problem is the collapse 277 00:20:55.839 --> 00:21:00.880 of the American family. What are the odds of a out in an urban 278 00:21:00.920 --> 00:21:06.240 area being born into a family that's intact on the day he was born, 279 00:21:06.680 --> 00:21:10.480 and the day he or she graduates from high school eighteen years later, the 280 00:21:10.559 --> 00:21:15.440 same family's intact. That odds are less than one percent. It doesn't happen. 281 00:21:15.480 --> 00:21:19.000 It's rare when you have parent teacher conferences, the parents don't show up, 282 00:21:19.559 --> 00:21:23.920 and the teachers are getting the crap beat out of them in school and 283 00:21:23.960 --> 00:21:29.000 the F bomb is dropped on a regular basis and there's little or no education 284 00:21:29.160 --> 00:21:34.200 happening because there's no consequence. If there's a consequence, well it might change 285 00:21:34.240 --> 00:21:41.240 someone's behavior. But when I've asked those in CPS, including the superintendent ironet 286 00:21:41.319 --> 00:21:45.160 or right, is something called social promotion is what's occurring. So you don't 287 00:21:45.160 --> 00:21:49.839 have to master the materials to move on to the next grade level because it 288 00:21:49.880 --> 00:21:55.519 doesn't make any difference. You may not be able to read and write as 289 00:21:55.559 --> 00:21:57.440 a freshman or sophomore, but guess what, You're still going to be advanced 290 00:21:57.440 --> 00:22:03.440 to the next year because there's social promotion. Unless the parent or guardian agrees 291 00:22:03.480 --> 00:22:07.160 with the teacher in the school to hold someone back, which doesn't happen at 292 00:22:07.200 --> 00:22:11.559 all, little or no homeworks being conducted. All it is is expensive daycare. 293 00:22:11.880 --> 00:22:17.720 So, and that's true in every urban district in the United States of 294 00:22:17.759 --> 00:22:22.960 America that there's little or no education happening. How much education is happening in 295 00:22:22.039 --> 00:22:26.920 Detroit public schools or Washington DC, or Los Angeles County public schools? Are 296 00:22:26.920 --> 00:22:30.240 you kidding me? None of it's going on. It doesn't occur. And 297 00:22:30.279 --> 00:22:34.160 the voters are in charge of the school board. So you would think the 298 00:22:34.240 --> 00:22:38.279 voters might say, now, wait a minute, that this is terrible. 299 00:22:38.960 --> 00:22:45.000 We have teachers being beaten up in classes, we have students dropping f bombs 300 00:22:45.039 --> 00:22:49.640 to teachers. The standardized testing is awful. We've not succeeded at this for 301 00:22:49.720 --> 00:22:52.799 decades. The voters might say, you know what, we got to change. 302 00:22:53.240 --> 00:22:57.160 We're going to have different votes because we want different results. It doesn't 303 00:22:57.160 --> 00:23:03.039 happen. Classic cases. The city of Chicago Lori Lightfoot by any fair measurement, 304 00:23:04.000 --> 00:23:10.279 was a terrible mayor awful, didn't support the police, gave out huge 305 00:23:10.400 --> 00:23:15.039 raises to the teachers' unions. Downtown was decimated. Parts of Chicago looked like 306 00:23:15.119 --> 00:23:19.839 Bay Root. So what happened? They had a choice between two Democrats, 307 00:23:21.119 --> 00:23:26.119 a more or less moderate Democrat and a left wing radical Democrat named Brandon Johnson. 308 00:23:26.920 --> 00:23:32.440 By a wide margin, the voters of Chicago gave it all to Brandon 309 00:23:32.519 --> 00:23:37.880 Johnson, the community organizer, and now he's running Chicago completely into the ground, 310 00:23:37.519 --> 00:23:40.960 and the voters are saying, we can't take it anymore. We can't 311 00:23:41.000 --> 00:23:44.200 go to the parks, we can't walk on the sidewalks. There's no public 312 00:23:44.319 --> 00:23:48.480 education occurring. The police department is decimated, there's a little or no job 313 00:23:48.559 --> 00:23:52.680 creation. We're in terrible condition. You want to bet whether the voters in 314 00:23:52.759 --> 00:23:56.599 Chicago are going to vote to keep Brandon Johnson as the mayor? Very likely. 315 00:23:56.680 --> 00:24:03.759 Why would anyone knowingly vote for politicians who embrace policies that cause great harm? 316 00:24:04.640 --> 00:24:12.440 I don't know. You got me in about a month from now, 317 00:24:12.680 --> 00:24:19.240 New York District Attorney Alvin Bragg is going to put on trial for two months 318 00:24:19.680 --> 00:24:26.599 Donald Trump, because well, he's the leader of the opposition party in Washington, 319 00:24:26.680 --> 00:24:32.240 DC wants it done. There's a coordination of prosecution between Fanny Willis and 320 00:24:32.319 --> 00:24:37.279 Atlanta Alvin Bragg in New York City, Jack Smith and Washington, d C. 321 00:24:37.640 --> 00:24:41.880 And Brock who's sainted, Obama's alcoholtes all over the place, all want 322 00:24:41.880 --> 00:24:45.559 to get Trump bankrupt him and send him to jail for the rest of his 323 00:24:45.640 --> 00:24:51.319 life. Is that the attitude Alvin Bragg has about those who treat cops heads 324 00:24:51.359 --> 00:24:56.359 like soccer balls. Absolutely not. He doesn't prosecute crime unless it's comming up 325 00:24:56.359 --> 00:25:00.680 by Donald Trump, in which case he throws the book at Donald Trump. 326 00:25:00.559 --> 00:25:06.519 The murder of the nursing student in Atlanta was awful. As I related to 327 00:25:06.559 --> 00:25:12.720 you yesterday. Ibera, the illegal alien from Venezuela, was in New York 328 00:25:12.759 --> 00:25:15.839 City for about a year and a half and he was a one man crime 329 00:25:15.880 --> 00:25:22.799 wave in New York City. Jose Antonio Obara committed numerous offenses in New York 330 00:25:22.799 --> 00:25:26.119 City, all of which he was charged with and all of which got out 331 00:25:26.119 --> 00:25:30.240 on bond which has signed your name O ar bond and then he skipped, 332 00:25:30.880 --> 00:25:36.400 resulting in what well lots of warrants for his arrest, but the bench warnes 333 00:25:36.400 --> 00:25:38.279 were never issued. They don't issue capias as in New York City if you 334 00:25:38.319 --> 00:25:42.240 don't show up for a criminal activity or trial, It's okay, nothing happens 335 00:25:42.519 --> 00:25:45.480 unless you're Donald Trump, in which case they throw the book at you. 336 00:25:47.039 --> 00:25:49.799 So he ends up going into Georgia, hooks up with his brothers, and 337 00:25:49.880 --> 00:25:55.519 commits numerous other crimes in and around Athens, Georgia. In Atlanta. Of 338 00:25:55.519 --> 00:25:59.799 course, he was not arrested for two of them, but for two he 339 00:25:59.799 --> 00:26:03.160 won. I was arrested, no bond was set, got out, didn't 340 00:26:03.200 --> 00:26:07.160 appear in court, no warrants issued for his arrest. But what they do 341 00:26:07.160 --> 00:26:11.279 do in Atlanta is go after Donald Trump. Now Fanny Willis is going to 342 00:26:11.359 --> 00:26:18.039 go after Donald Trump because of this fake elector scheme and other crap. Throw 343 00:26:18.119 --> 00:26:21.839 up against the wall. See what sticks. So if you're in New York 344 00:26:21.880 --> 00:26:26.200 City, or if you're in Atlanta and commit serious crime, there's no punishment 345 00:26:26.480 --> 00:26:30.480 unless you're Donald Trump. Then you get the book thrown at you. They 346 00:26:30.519 --> 00:26:33.839 want to bankrupt Donald Trump and put him in prison for the rest of his 347 00:26:33.960 --> 00:26:40.440 life, but not people like Abara and others, illegal aliens who commit numerous 348 00:26:40.440 --> 00:26:45.119 crimes. And Alvin Bragg never saw a criminal he didn't like, including a 349 00:26:45.240 --> 00:26:48.000 New York I saw the story out of the Washington Post, but three months 350 00:26:48.039 --> 00:26:53.839 ago there was a sixteen year old kid who was breaking into cars. He 351 00:26:53.960 --> 00:27:00.799 pulled a gun out and shot three Washington DC pulled out PO officers in uniform 352 00:27:00.839 --> 00:27:06.960 on duty. Fortunately it was a bad aim and all three officers recovered. 353 00:27:07.000 --> 00:27:10.359 But to be shot in the arm of the leg is not a pleasant experience. 354 00:27:11.160 --> 00:27:15.079 That kid now was kept in juvenile court, and he's due to be 355 00:27:15.119 --> 00:27:18.759 released sometime this summer, having served less than six months in jail for shooting 356 00:27:18.799 --> 00:27:23.240 three police officers. But in Washington, d C. If you're Donald Trump, 357 00:27:23.440 --> 00:27:26.839 they throw the book at you. We're going to appoint teams of prosecutors 358 00:27:27.000 --> 00:27:33.119 to bring you down. Are any citizens in New York, Washington, d 359 00:27:33.279 --> 00:27:38.759 C. Or Atlanta profoundly affected if Donald Trump is walking the streets as opposed 360 00:27:38.759 --> 00:27:44.839 to all these thousands of criminals who make life unbearable? Of course not so. 361 00:27:45.000 --> 00:27:51.599 Why do voters knowingly put in power politicians who embrace policies that cause great 362 00:27:51.640 --> 00:27:56.400 harm? I have no idea. Every now and then I vote for a 363 00:27:56.440 --> 00:28:02.160 Democrat. Mostly I vote for Republicans because at least they say they're for a 364 00:28:02.240 --> 00:28:06.880 limited government and lower taxes unless government but doesn't work out that way. Joe 365 00:28:06.880 --> 00:28:15.519 Biden has allowed millions and millions of completely unvetted immigrants with an array of criminal, 366 00:28:15.000 --> 00:28:22.079 social, psychiatric, and health problems enter the country, causing untold disruption 367 00:28:22.720 --> 00:28:26.359 in every city in which they've arrived in threats of terrorism. Instead of deporting 368 00:28:26.359 --> 00:28:32.240 these people, who, by the way, violate federal law simply by coming 369 00:28:32.240 --> 00:28:38.359 here illegally, what does Biden do gives them free rent at the Roosevelt Hotel, 370 00:28:40.559 --> 00:28:45.200 free food, free cell phones, free credit cards, debit cards with 371 00:28:45.279 --> 00:28:51.680 one thousand dollars a month put on, free medical care, and free childcare. 372 00:28:52.079 --> 00:28:59.640 So the same guy Biden that destroyed our energy independence, caused runaway inflation 373 00:28:59.759 --> 00:29:04.359 by dumping two trillion dollars into the market that wasn't needed, undermine our military 374 00:29:04.400 --> 00:29:08.880 readiness all around the world, and was in charge of the Afghan pullout, 375 00:29:10.440 --> 00:29:17.480 is now allowing literally millions and millions of felonies to be committed by individuals who 376 00:29:17.519 --> 00:29:21.559 should not be here in the first place, and he's incentivizing more to come 377 00:29:21.599 --> 00:29:25.119 by paying them. When you pay for bad behavior, you get more of 378 00:29:25.119 --> 00:29:29.319 it. When you tax good behavior, you get less of it. And 379 00:29:29.359 --> 00:29:34.480 now he's using the legal system against Donald Trump not to deny him due process 380 00:29:36.160 --> 00:29:40.640 to confiscate his money, confiscate his buildings, and to impose a lengthy jail 381 00:29:40.680 --> 00:29:42.640 sentence so he spends the rest of his life in jail. The guy's seventy 382 00:29:42.640 --> 00:29:47.759 seven years old and he's probably got ten or fifteen years to live, and 383 00:29:47.759 --> 00:29:52.000 he's looking at three hundred years in jail. The law is now being used 384 00:29:52.000 --> 00:29:56.079 to punish people you don't like politically, much like a third world banana republic. 385 00:29:59.119 --> 00:30:03.039 I would that the people of New York City got to be fed up 386 00:30:03.079 --> 00:30:07.279 with all this, the mounting crime and the defecation, the homelessness, the 387 00:30:07.359 --> 00:30:12.839 drug used, but probably not. They voted for Allan Alvin Bragg and likely 388 00:30:12.839 --> 00:30:18.519 would vote for him again in twenty six when he's up for reelection, and 389 00:30:18.559 --> 00:30:23.160 I would anticipate that in Atlanta, Fanny Willis is a hero now because she 390 00:30:23.240 --> 00:30:29.039 committed perjury on the witness chair. She played the race card and the gender 391 00:30:29.079 --> 00:30:33.880 card. Likely will do quite well. And you know, I catch flak 392 00:30:33.960 --> 00:30:37.359 for this every election season. I tell Americans, if you don't know what 393 00:30:37.440 --> 00:30:41.599 the issues are, if you don't know who the candidates are, you don't 394 00:30:41.599 --> 00:30:45.480 know what positions they say they stand for soon to be changed. I'm sure, 395 00:30:47.319 --> 00:30:49.480 stay home and don't vote. If you're a dumb ass, don't vote. 396 00:30:51.039 --> 00:30:55.279 Does that make sense to anyone? The media tells people get out and 397 00:30:55.359 --> 00:31:00.160 vote. Today's election day, Get out, who knows? Just go vote? 398 00:31:00.440 --> 00:31:07.680 It is stupid, absurd If you do not know exactly what to vote 399 00:31:07.720 --> 00:31:10.960 for, who to vote for, and why stay home? Don't vote? 400 00:31:11.640 --> 00:31:17.359 Because it turns the votes in the knowledgeable Americans in the sawdust, it means 401 00:31:17.359 --> 00:31:22.799 nothing. It's unbelievable. When it comes to politics, many of us have 402 00:31:22.839 --> 00:31:30.160 a rather underinformed viewpoint these They see themselves as compassionate people who want to help 403 00:31:30.200 --> 00:31:34.799 the disadvantage. And if you're white, you've been told that the white patriarchy, 404 00:31:34.880 --> 00:31:38.400 white privilege oppresses blacks and other minorities. As a result, you may 405 00:31:38.440 --> 00:31:44.680 feel guilty about your own success. Especially suburbanite females feel guilty. But when 406 00:31:44.720 --> 00:31:48.480 it comes to immigration and open door policies apply, that hurts the country. 407 00:31:48.640 --> 00:31:52.559 Will this cause more and more Americans to say, you know what, I 408 00:31:52.599 --> 00:31:56.279 can't take it anymore. That's it, I'm done. I'm going some other 409 00:31:56.319 --> 00:32:01.079 direction. Orange man bad the Orange man say about the UN? What do 410 00:32:01.119 --> 00:32:05.599 the Orange man say about putin? How about looking around and thinking, what 411 00:32:05.640 --> 00:32:09.039 are the policies that we have such difficulties caused by the party in power, 412 00:32:09.200 --> 00:32:14.160 and are we going to vote to change that. Cincinnati, the city of 413 00:32:14.160 --> 00:32:20.039 Cincinnati and Hamlety County is in trouble. And it's in trouble because it's one 414 00:32:20.119 --> 00:32:23.279 party rule. There was an opportunity with Liz Keating in November for the city 415 00:32:23.279 --> 00:32:30.839 of Cincinnati to have one person not in the cabal of left wing socialist Democrats, 416 00:32:30.119 --> 00:32:35.000 and she was rejected summarily. And she's a good woman. Why I 417 00:32:35.039 --> 00:32:42.079 have no idea. I think if you don't take the time to study the 418 00:32:42.119 --> 00:32:45.359 issues and the candidates, and you don't know what's going on, do not 419 00:32:45.559 --> 00:32:52.240 go vote because you're a dumbass. The most patriotic thing you can do is 420 00:32:52.279 --> 00:32:57.599 stay home on election day rather than vote on the basis of whims or emotions 421 00:32:57.680 --> 00:33:01.400 or political affiliation, because you're playing Russian Roulette with the history of this country. 422 00:33:02.640 --> 00:33:07.119 So, as I began, if Melissa Powers is not re elected and 423 00:33:07.200 --> 00:33:12.279 this county completely goes woke, there will be no watch dog and no one 424 00:33:12.279 --> 00:33:15.960 to turn to. When the Hamilton County area looks like the city of Cincinnati, 425 00:33:16.960 --> 00:33:21.559 take a short break the line becomes available five one, three, seven, 426 00:33:21.599 --> 00:33:24.920 four, nine, seven thousand and uh. Looking to my left Chuck 427 00:33:24.960 --> 00:33:31.039 Schumer screaming and hollering about Republicans. We have a two trillion dollar annual deficit. 428 00:33:31.559 --> 00:33:36.000 We owe thirty four trillion dollars soon to be forty trillion dollars. We 429 00:33:36.039 --> 00:33:38.680 can't afford it. The credit cards are maxed out. We can't take it 430 00:33:38.720 --> 00:33:45.839 anymore. Go another direction twelve fifty six scheduling. Next is Governor Mike DeWine 431 00:33:45.119 --> 00:33:50.960 twelve fifty six.

Ri Bully Cunningham, the 445 00:34:51.840 --> 00:34:54.599 Great America and the governor of this state is the governor of Mike DeWine and 446 00:34:54.960 --> 00:35:00.400 Mike Dwine, welcome again to the Bill Cunningham Show and Mike how doing. 447 00:35:00.480 --> 00:35:02.119 First of all is get right to I know your busy got something going on 448 00:35:02.159 --> 00:35:07.119 in a few minutes here, But nonetheless, two or three issues are percolating. 449 00:35:07.119 --> 00:35:10.360 Are you ready for my probing questions? Yeah? But first of all, 450 00:35:10.960 --> 00:35:15.559 this theme song of yours, you've had it for like fifty years or 451 00:35:15.559 --> 00:35:19.159 something. Yeah. If you think it's time for something more upbeat than Bad 452 00:35:19.199 --> 00:35:22.519 to the Bone, just think about that. Well serious, I get the 453 00:35:22.679 --> 00:35:27.360 press line here, you know that. Come on? Well yeah, well 454 00:35:27.400 --> 00:35:31.679 your theme your walk up music is the Jetsons. Yeah, I mean, 455 00:35:31.920 --> 00:35:36.800 I'm kind of thinking of the jets comes from a nineteen sixties show. Yeah, 456 00:35:36.920 --> 00:35:38.760 many people you know, we're of that generation, many or not. 457 00:35:38.840 --> 00:35:45.679 But nonetheless, we were supposedly having these flying taxis about sixty years ago. 458 00:35:45.440 --> 00:35:50.519 And now are we going to have flying taxis? What's happening with that? 459 00:35:51.719 --> 00:35:59.480 Your California companies just coming to Okiles and build those flying taxis near the Dayton 460 00:35:59.559 --> 00:36:04.719 Airport. That's that's about the future. Excited. I have to see it 461 00:36:04.760 --> 00:36:07.199 to believe it. So as I understand it, It's gonna hover like a 462 00:36:07.199 --> 00:36:12.599 helicopter, go up and then just take off and you can you can reserve 463 00:36:12.639 --> 00:36:15.400 it much like like an uber drive like a bat. Like, Yeah, 464 00:36:15.440 --> 00:36:17.000 it's gonna go straight up and that's gonna go like a bat out of hell. 465 00:36:17.119 --> 00:36:21.280 I mean, it's just gonna be really, uh a great thing. 466 00:36:21.920 --> 00:36:24.599 And it is. It is about the future. And I love it that 467 00:36:24.679 --> 00:36:32.000 the California Company decided that Ohio is a great place to make a aviation vehicle 468 00:36:32.079 --> 00:36:36.199 of the future. Much you love that. I love it because that's one 469 00:36:36.239 --> 00:36:40.400 of my first questions. Is New York seemingly is bleeding companies, California is 470 00:36:40.440 --> 00:36:45.239 bleeding companies and that Donald Trump factor in New York is causing you know, 471 00:36:45.320 --> 00:36:50.679 you got the ag you spent eight years as our age. Latitia James is 472 00:36:50.719 --> 00:36:54.760 doing a victory lap about all the money every day that Trump loses one hundred 473 00:36:54.760 --> 00:36:59.679 and twelve thousand dollars more, and she's like poking the bear. And have 474 00:36:59.800 --> 00:37:04.639 you made efforts from like California, maybe specifically New York and other Blue states 475 00:37:04.639 --> 00:37:08.280 to say, come to Ohio. The tax rates are extremely low, plenty 476 00:37:08.320 --> 00:37:13.760 of good water flat because of the glacier that came down. What efforts are 477 00:37:13.760 --> 00:37:16.440 you going to go to New York, et cetera, maybe Michigan after Whitmer 478 00:37:16.480 --> 00:37:21.400 and you're gonna help Ohio? And so what's being done there? Well, 479 00:37:21.400 --> 00:37:24.679 bill if you remember during the Bengals Super Bowl when we went out there, 480 00:37:25.599 --> 00:37:31.559 we had several billboards out there inviting people in California basically, if you're sick 481 00:37:31.559 --> 00:37:36.400 of high taxes and if you're sick of a very very high cost of living 482 00:37:36.480 --> 00:37:39.480 and the whole bunch of traffic, come to Ohio. And you know, 483 00:37:39.480 --> 00:37:44.360 we're getting a lot of companies that are literally coming off off the West coast, 484 00:37:44.360 --> 00:37:49.199 So I'm coming off the east coast, and it was noteworthy I think 485 00:37:49.360 --> 00:37:57.239 that the Governor of Pennsylvania in his State of the State speech referenced Ohio and 486 00:37:57.360 --> 00:38:00.360 basically said said, it is not a direct quay, but hey, we're 487 00:38:00.440 --> 00:38:05.360 tired of losing to Ohio. We got to go after this. We've got 488 00:38:05.400 --> 00:38:09.039 to get these jobs to come to Pennsylvania. So literally called Ohio out. 489 00:38:09.400 --> 00:38:14.239 Yeah, in the State of the state. So look, we're not going 490 00:38:14.320 --> 00:38:17.159 to get every every company that wants to move or every company is going to 491 00:38:17.159 --> 00:38:21.320 start up, but we're sure getting more than our fair share, and we're 492 00:38:21.320 --> 00:38:24.960 going to continue continue to do that. This population in Ohio, dwin Lingers 493 00:38:24.960 --> 00:38:29.559 are going up because at one point we we're losing. Have we stabilized going 494 00:38:29.599 --> 00:38:32.280 the other direction or no, Yeah, we're going up. You know, 495 00:38:32.400 --> 00:38:39.400 Bill, for most of my life, for fifty sixteen sixty years, our 496 00:38:39.440 --> 00:38:47.000 population has been relatively stable. And you know, we're we're moving forward and 497 00:38:47.039 --> 00:38:51.199 we're starting to see our population go up more. It's not going up as 498 00:38:51.239 --> 00:38:53.599 fast as you know, I might like, but it's it's it certainly is 499 00:38:54.880 --> 00:38:59.639 going up. And you know, it's just a great place to do business, 500 00:38:59.639 --> 00:39:02.000 great great place to live, great place to raise a family. You 501 00:39:02.000 --> 00:39:06.280 know, more and more people recognizing that. A couple of days ago, 502 00:39:06.360 --> 00:39:08.239 I sent you an article out of Coal Rain Middle School. As you're probably 503 00:39:08.280 --> 00:39:13.880 aren't monitoring Coal Rain Middle School, but there were several students there that were 504 00:39:13.880 --> 00:39:19.719 hospitalized and justin cannabis infused gummy bears, and I understand that that is a 505 00:39:20.440 --> 00:39:22.840 And when I talk to educators, they say, hey, they look like 506 00:39:22.920 --> 00:39:27.159 candy, they look like children's things, and they're passed around summer Lace with 507 00:39:27.239 --> 00:39:31.320 fentanyl, summer Lace with THC. Cole Rain Middle School had ambulances showing up, 508 00:39:31.400 --> 00:39:36.400 kids were kids were hallucinating, et cetera. And here we sit almost 509 00:39:36.480 --> 00:39:40.199 in March, and you Republicans, not you, but the Republicans in the 510 00:39:40.199 --> 00:39:44.760 House have refused to move on the will of the voters five months ago. 511 00:39:44.880 --> 00:39:47.639 What's the status of that as we approach March? First, Well, first 512 00:39:47.639 --> 00:39:51.239 of all, thank you for sending that to me. I put our team 513 00:39:51.320 --> 00:39:54.079 on that to look at that, and we're still that's still under investigation, 514 00:39:54.199 --> 00:39:58.199 as you know, and trying to get all the facts. Like you know, 515 00:39:58.639 --> 00:40:00.760 one of the things that you know, we are very concerned about is 516 00:40:01.639 --> 00:40:06.320 more kids showing up at the emergency room and these gummy these gummy bears or 517 00:40:06.400 --> 00:40:10.039 these gummies, they're not all bears. I guess they're gummies. You know, 518 00:40:10.239 --> 00:40:16.679 can can be have the marijuana in it, and you know, if 519 00:40:16.679 --> 00:40:21.119 an adult ate one, it probably wouldn't have a whole huge effect. But 520 00:40:21.280 --> 00:40:23.360 the problem is that you know, someone gets hold of them, a kid 521 00:40:23.400 --> 00:40:27.920 particularly, and they eat more than eat more than one, or they're you 522 00:40:27.960 --> 00:40:30.239 know it's a kid, they're wait as low, or they're you know, 523 00:40:30.320 --> 00:40:34.280 they're a first grader or a second grader, and it's just a it's a 524 00:40:34.320 --> 00:40:37.719 real, real problem. We got a couple of things that the legislature, 525 00:40:37.760 --> 00:40:42.360 as you say, really needs needs to do. One is this Delta eight, 526 00:40:42.480 --> 00:40:46.159 Delta nine, Delta ten, which is a hemp product, but it 527 00:40:46.199 --> 00:40:52.320 is hallucinogenic and it's sold for that very specific purpose and you can buy it 528 00:40:52.400 --> 00:40:58.119 unfortunately in gas some gas stations today, uh and we're seeing, you know, 529 00:40:58.239 --> 00:41:02.559 fifteen year olds go in, sometimes twelve year olds go again and buy 530 00:41:02.599 --> 00:41:07.400 it. I mean we have, for example, ahead of a public safety 531 00:41:07.440 --> 00:41:13.239 Andy Wilson, I asked him to go check this out, and you know, 532 00:41:13.679 --> 00:41:20.599 in Springfield, he sent his fifteen year old Nason to uh, well, 533 00:41:20.639 --> 00:41:22.679 I guess there's his nephew to go in went right into the store and 534 00:41:23.000 --> 00:41:28.119 bought it. So you know, in many places they don't check, they're 535 00:41:28.159 --> 00:41:30.760 not checking IDs. They're selling this product. It's legal to sell it. 536 00:41:31.280 --> 00:41:35.840 We need to close that loophole and the law it's it's a it's a big 537 00:41:35.920 --> 00:41:38.760 loophole. It was a loophole in farallel loopool and state law. I do 538 00:41:38.880 --> 00:41:44.000 not have the power a pharmacy board, the medical board, nobody has the 539 00:41:44.119 --> 00:41:49.239 power to ban this stuff. And only the legislature can do it. So 540 00:41:49.280 --> 00:41:51.519 we need, you know, really need for them to do it. How 541 00:41:51.519 --> 00:41:53.559 about joll Bone and get Stevens in there and beat him about the facing the 542 00:41:53.559 --> 00:41:57.480 head governor, tell him this is what I want. I'm the governor. 543 00:41:57.480 --> 00:42:00.480 You're not. The Senate passed at the paper passed it. What in the 544 00:42:00.519 --> 00:42:06.800 hell is to hold up four months later? Well, I just you know, 545 00:42:06.960 --> 00:42:08.719 Bill, I'm not I can't really answer that. I mean, this 546 00:42:08.760 --> 00:42:13.639 is something the legislature has to do. You're right. The you know, 547 00:42:13.639 --> 00:42:20.719 the Senate did pass a basically a marijuana bill, which would have allowed us 548 00:42:20.760 --> 00:42:27.920 to start selling marijuana through are places that are already licensed to sell a medical 549 00:42:28.119 --> 00:42:30.519 and we easily done that. Now that again, that may sound strange for 550 00:42:30.639 --> 00:42:34.199 someone who was not in favor of the bill, and I'm still not, 551 00:42:34.400 --> 00:42:37.559 but the people passed it, and they passed it with about fifty seven percent 552 00:42:37.559 --> 00:42:39.440 of the vote. We have to, I think, follow the will of 553 00:42:39.480 --> 00:42:44.400 the people, but we also have to do it in a rational and reasonable 554 00:42:45.039 --> 00:42:49.320 way, and that's what this bill would have done. And so again the 555 00:42:49.440 --> 00:42:52.519 Senate passed it. We would like for the House to pass it, and 556 00:42:52.679 --> 00:42:55.880 you know, we can move on the big concern we have. You know, 557 00:42:57.079 --> 00:43:00.679 it passed. Everybody thinks it's legal. Yeah, but you can't legally 558 00:43:00.719 --> 00:43:04.800 buy it yet it a lot and that just creates a you know, a 559 00:43:04.840 --> 00:43:09.039 bigger black market, and a black market is not good because people are buying 560 00:43:09.039 --> 00:43:14.599 the product and there's no guarantee that it's not been you know, what it's 561 00:43:14.679 --> 00:43:17.239 laced with, what it's got in it. They don't know that the purity, 562 00:43:17.280 --> 00:43:23.039 they don't know how potent stuff is. All of those things are controlled. 563 00:43:23.559 --> 00:43:30.840 Once you go into a controlled sale of marijuana, and there's you know, 564 00:43:30.920 --> 00:43:36.840 you know that it's not been grown and sprayed with pesticides and mean, 565 00:43:37.079 --> 00:43:42.719 all these things are guaranteed when you buy it. But that system is not 566 00:43:43.360 --> 00:43:46.840 set up yet, and we need, frankly, the legislature to pass legislation 567 00:43:47.039 --> 00:43:52.440 that allows us to set this up much faster than the current law allows us 568 00:43:52.519 --> 00:43:57.519 to do so. Again, these are two big areas that we really need 569 00:43:57.519 --> 00:44:01.679 some help from the state legislature. Thanks for city sanctuary states. I'm looking 570 00:44:01.679 --> 00:44:07.079 to my left right now, Mayor Adams is holding another town hall meeting explaining 571 00:44:07.079 --> 00:44:10.159 what's going on with They've had about one hundred and twenty five thousand legal immigrants 572 00:44:10.159 --> 00:44:15.119 come. They've had about thirty thousand kids show up at school, many without 573 00:44:15.159 --> 00:44:19.719 any of their vaccinations. Ohio is not a sanctuary state, but that we 574 00:44:19.800 --> 00:44:23.199 have several cities like Cincinnati that are sanctuary cities. And in fact, I 575 00:44:23.239 --> 00:44:27.880 saw this video from the border. A border patrol agent sent me there's a 576 00:44:28.000 --> 00:44:31.480 large group of Ethiopians illegally entering the country. They're going to be shipped to 577 00:44:31.519 --> 00:44:37.760 Cincinnati because of Catholic charities and or the Salvation Army that provide the government contracts 578 00:44:38.599 --> 00:44:44.239 to the house clothe and feed these individuals. Is there anything at the state 579 00:44:44.360 --> 00:44:49.639 level you can do to dissuade individuals, whether they're the Salvation Army, which 580 00:44:49.679 --> 00:44:52.639 is a great organization, or Catholic Charities, which is a great organization. 581 00:44:52.760 --> 00:44:58.079 But they're being paid by the federal government big bucks to relocate it legals into 582 00:44:58.159 --> 00:45:01.119 Ohio. Anything you can do to stop that, Well, first of all, 583 00:45:01.159 --> 00:45:05.719 we're not a sanctuary state, and the idea of sanctuary cities I think 584 00:45:05.880 --> 00:45:09.440 is absurd. You know, I guess what they're saying. I'm never quite 585 00:45:09.480 --> 00:45:14.159 sure what they mean by a sanctuary city, but I guess it means that 586 00:45:14.199 --> 00:45:19.280 they won't cooperate with the federal authorities, which again goes against everything that I 587 00:45:19.360 --> 00:45:22.039 believe in as far as local law enforcement. Uh. And you know, 588 00:45:22.079 --> 00:45:25.599 we should be cooperating with federal officials no matter what, you know, what 589 00:45:25.639 --> 00:45:32.400 the criminal investigation is or what whether it's an immigration issue. Let me point 590 00:45:32.440 --> 00:45:37.880 out the build one thing, and that is that there are a lot of 591 00:45:37.880 --> 00:45:44.800 people who are coming to Ahile and they're not being relocated. They're just literally, 592 00:45:45.760 --> 00:45:50.719 you know, we've got this situation at the border where they're basically and 593 00:45:50.760 --> 00:45:54.000 you our listeners have heard this a million times. Basically it's kind of an 594 00:45:54.039 --> 00:46:00.039 absurd situation. They get on us soil, then they turn lineup to turn 595 00:46:00.119 --> 00:46:07.119 themselves in and then they climb asylum, which basically means, you know, 596 00:46:07.159 --> 00:46:10.920 they have a legitimate fear of going back to their to their country that they 597 00:46:12.000 --> 00:46:15.360 came from. They're basically then you know, they give some indication of where 598 00:46:15.360 --> 00:46:20.079 they're going to move move to, uh, and then they're given a date 599 00:46:20.320 --> 00:46:22.920 which is I don't know, six eight years in advance to show up. 600 00:46:24.280 --> 00:46:29.679 You know, that's that system that doesn't work right because what they do is 601 00:46:29.719 --> 00:46:32.880 they my only point is they disappear into the into the community, and so 602 00:46:32.960 --> 00:46:38.199 they may end up any anywhere. And you know, one of the things 603 00:46:38.239 --> 00:46:45.760 that frankly we're concerned with is when people come in to a community UH and 604 00:46:45.960 --> 00:46:50.840 you know they don't they don't speak English and they and they can't uh maybe 605 00:46:51.239 --> 00:46:53.760 maybe don't know how to drive, but yet you know, they get they 606 00:46:53.800 --> 00:46:58.280 get a license to drive. So these are things that you know, it 607 00:46:58.400 --> 00:47:05.679 is very legitimate or local agencies to try to help them speak English, because 608 00:47:06.199 --> 00:47:09.519 again it's it's not helpful to anybody. If they can't speak English. It 609 00:47:09.519 --> 00:47:15.760 means they don't report crime, they don't can't communicate, you know, creates 610 00:47:15.840 --> 00:47:19.880 problems with the kids going to school. I mean, so what we do 611 00:47:19.920 --> 00:47:23.039 with in one we're here, I think is, you know, we try 612 00:47:23.039 --> 00:47:27.400 to make it work. The problem is down on the border, and that's 613 00:47:27.519 --> 00:47:31.119 all the federal government, right, and you know the system that exists today 614 00:47:31.239 --> 00:47:35.760 just is goofy. I mean, it makes no You couldn't make a system 615 00:47:35.840 --> 00:47:39.239 up any goofier than what we have today on the border. I mean, 616 00:47:39.320 --> 00:47:45.119 I imagine this. You tell somebody, Okay, show up in you know, 617 00:47:45.239 --> 00:47:47.320 five years, six years, seven years or whatever it is the time 618 00:47:47.599 --> 00:47:52.440 they got this massive backlaw, and you know, you've got to fix the 619 00:47:52.480 --> 00:47:54.760 backlaw. You got to get more more of these judges who hear these things, 620 00:47:57.559 --> 00:48:01.639 and the current system just is well. Lastly, let me ask you 621 00:48:01.679 --> 00:48:05.920 this question. Looking at my right here at the Wall Street Journal's got a 622 00:48:05.960 --> 00:48:12.559 story about Senator Mitch McConnell, the Senate Republican leader, has put in roads 623 00:48:12.559 --> 00:48:15.719 into Donald Trump to work out their differences. The primary in Ohio is, 624 00:48:15.760 --> 00:48:20.440 like I think, on March the nineteenth, got three candidates running for the 625 00:48:20.480 --> 00:48:23.599 Senate. You've endorsed none of them. Let the people decide. Do you 626 00:48:23.639 --> 00:48:29.679 see yourself endorsing Donald Trump at some point? First of all, I'm a 627 00:48:29.679 --> 00:48:32.920 big fan of Mitch McConnell. I worked with Mitch for twelve years in the 628 00:48:34.039 --> 00:48:37.000 US Senate. He's a guy that you know, knows how to get stuff 629 00:48:37.239 --> 00:48:44.920 stuff done. The Supreme Court that we have today, we owe connell a 630 00:48:44.960 --> 00:48:49.559 lot. We certainly President Trump a lot for nominating them. But he but 631 00:48:49.960 --> 00:48:53.440 mcconnald's the one that got them to the Senate, held up one of the 632 00:48:53.800 --> 00:49:00.519 one of the previous administration's candidates. So anyway, miss has done I think 633 00:49:00.559 --> 00:49:06.320 a very very very good job. My focus, uh is going to be 634 00:49:06.400 --> 00:49:10.639 after this this primary, Uh, do everything I can to help our Senate 635 00:49:10.679 --> 00:49:15.239 nominee. I think we've got three good candidates who are running. I notice 636 00:49:15.280 --> 00:49:20.440 on TV everybody's beating everybody up. I'm that great sort of goes with the 637 00:49:20.519 --> 00:49:23.360 game. I understand that. But but the next morning after the primary, 638 00:49:23.719 --> 00:49:28.760 you know, we need to get behind uh. You know whoever that whoever 639 00:49:28.800 --> 00:49:31.880 the nominee is of the Republican Party. And I'm going to my my political 640 00:49:31.920 --> 00:49:36.440 focus, Uh this year certainly is going to be uh, you know, 641 00:49:36.480 --> 00:49:39.519 primarily on on that. I'm not up myself. I'm not running. But 642 00:49:40.079 --> 00:49:44.800 would you accept it if Trump? If Donald Trump called you and said, 643 00:49:44.840 --> 00:49:47.440 Mike DeWine, I want you to be my vice president. Would you accept 644 00:49:47.480 --> 00:49:53.599 that, Billy, I'm not interested in that. I'm uh, I'm interested 645 00:49:53.639 --> 00:49:58.559 in serving your governor of state. We got plenty to do here. Uh. 646 00:49:58.719 --> 00:50:01.519 We've been focusing, you know, getting kids to read. And you 647 00:50:01.559 --> 00:50:05.960 didn't say no. You didn't say no reading. No, I'm not no, 648 00:50:06.000 --> 00:50:07.320 I'm not going to interest. I'm not interested. No. All right, 649 00:50:07.559 --> 00:50:10.840 I don't think he's calling anyway, Billy, I think you were completely 650 00:50:10.880 --> 00:50:15.039 different people. Would you agree, Well, I just don't think he's calling. 651 00:50:15.159 --> 00:50:19.519 I'm not interested. I love being a governor. It's you know, 652 00:50:19.559 --> 00:50:22.079 we got a lot of work to do in the next few years. All 653 00:50:22.159 --> 00:50:24.360 right, Governor, thank you for coming on the Bill Cunningham Show live here 654 00:50:24.400 --> 00:50:28.960 in Cincinnati, and you'll be at Red's opening day I think in about a 655 00:50:29.000 --> 00:50:31.119 month, is that correctly?

You mean like every time the governor comes to the 837 01:05:34.239 --> 01:05:39.400 press conference, they play that they played Jetson music. He's thinking my song 838 01:05:39.519 --> 01:05:45.199 is dated? Well, what about his song that's from the nineteen sixties? 839 01:05:45.239 --> 01:05:47.679 Thank you?

Now I was wife Judy Judy. Jane wasn't bad looking either. 842 01:05:57.920 --> 01:06:00.159 People aren't named Jane and Judy anymore. And when they had it was 843 01:06:00.199 --> 01:06:05.960 a dog's name it. Yeah, we'll tell your man. After a planet. 844 01:06:06.239 --> 01:06:16.960 Maybe astro l Roy Elroy would have to be a clown. You liked 845 01:06:16.960 --> 01:06:26.199 her in that little skirt, didn't you. Astronots that's also known as missus 846 01:06:26.239 --> 01:06:34.000 DeLine and he thinks my song is datus. I don't know. This thing's 847 01:06:34.000 --> 01:06:40.719 about fifty years old. What are the odds of Donald Trump calling Mike the 848 01:06:40.840 --> 01:06:45.400 Wine and saying be my vice president? Cool? Then you got it made? 849 01:06:45.400 --> 01:06:48.000 They got If that, then then the show in your show moves to 850 01:06:48.159 --> 01:06:56.800 Washington, to the office. That's right. I don't know. I mean, 851 01:06:56.920 --> 01:06:59.599 I'm going to stay at a shock. If that happens, we'd have 852 01:06:59.639 --> 01:07:02.079 a story. Sorry, Willie, do you think he didn't say no? 853 01:07:03.559 --> 01:07:09.079 You mean my governor Dwine didn't say jo Wine did not say no? So 854 01:07:09.119 --> 01:07:14.039 who else? Tim Scott, the guy from South Carolina's in Byron Donald's from 855 01:07:14.159 --> 01:07:17.679 southwest Florida. Yeah, so, I don't know. But Mike Dwine would 856 01:07:17.679 --> 01:07:21.760 be perfect, would you agree? Can you see those who then Housted would 857 01:07:21.800 --> 01:07:26.199 take over those guy? Correct? He would roll with an iron grip? 858 01:07:26.480 --> 01:07:30.519 Then who would be the governor? That lady doctor they got rid of? 859 01:07:30.960 --> 01:07:35.079 What was her name? Amy, Amy Acton? Ammy Acton? I don't 860 01:07:35.079 --> 01:07:41.400 think so. They offered me the lieutenant governorship. If that happens, I 861 01:07:41.440 --> 01:07:45.119 could go to Columbus and be the vice president of Ohio. Wow, you 862 01:07:45.159 --> 01:07:48.159 would. Joe Dieters could get a room together. I don't know about that. 863 01:07:48.360 --> 01:07:51.920 Justice Joe, Justice, Joe, Justice Joe, and you and Columbus 864 01:07:51.960 --> 01:07:56.199 six guns. I would turn over. He's like Clint Easton in minutes. 865 01:07:57.039 --> 01:08:00.440 I'm like Steve Austin Stone cold set. You know what, Just leave your 866 01:08:00.519 --> 01:08:05.519 music like it is. Well, some people are going if you change that 867 01:08:05.679 --> 01:08:10.960 music, they have a revolt. How about me using Taylor Swift songs like 868 01:08:11.000 --> 01:08:13.880 shake It Off or shake It on? With that that doesn't really fit, 869 01:08:13.960 --> 01:08:17.920 doesn't help now, you and heard just don't come from different eras and different 870 01:08:18.199 --> 01:08:23.520 I used to dater though Fort Travis Kelsey. That's a different start. I 871 01:08:23.520 --> 01:08:25.520 shouldn't get that on the air. No, you shouldn't. All right, 872 01:08:25.600 --> 01:08:27.920 say, give me out of the students' apartment. We have a European coming 873 01:08:28.000 --> 01:08:30.520 up next to You're gonna survey the American political scene of what's gone wrong. 874 01:08:30.840 --> 01:08:35.199 Willie, we say today two citizens of the day. Let me hear him. 875 01:08:35.399 --> 01:08:41.960 Bengals Senior defensive assistant Mark Duffner I like that guy who is now entering 876 01:08:42.000 --> 01:08:45.800 his fiftieth year in coaching, Wow, and his twenty is attending his twenty 877 01:08:45.920 --> 01:08:50.439 eight straight NFL combine.

And then one of your 879 01:08:55.920 --> 01:09:01.000 golfing buddies, which one Dean Gregory. He's the best. Thirty fifth anniversary 880 01:09:01.079 --> 01:09:06.279 of the Montgomery In Boathouse. Really, yes, Chuck KUBICKI built that thirty 881 01:09:06.319 --> 01:09:12.199 five years ago February twenty seventh, and it opened under the leadership of Dean 882 01:09:12.399 --> 01:09:17.880 the Dream Gregory. We leave you with the immortal words of the Stood Report. 883 01:09:18.520 --> 01:09:24.119 They got to play us. They got to play us. Who the 884 01:09:24.159 --> 01:09:27.920 hell's that? It's Coach Duffner. They gotta play us, right, they 885 01:09:27.920 --> 01:09:30.640 gotta play us. That's right. Now, Let's continue. We never stop. 886 01:09:30.720 --> 01:09:34.439 We simply continue at some some of the reds and the man seeking a 887 01:09:34.439 --> 01:09:39.720 new theme song. According to the Governor Scott Sloan, who may become the 888 01:09:39.800 --> 01:09:45.560 Lieutenant Governor slash Vice President of the United States under the leadership of Donald Trump, 889 01:09:45.920 --> 01:09:48.920 Trump will call the wine and say join me, do you think, 890 01:09:48.960 --> 01:09:56.319 Michael say yes? This madness has got to stop Bingo. On seven hundred 891 01:09:56.399 --> 01:10:04.760 WLW, the hit true crime podcast Paper Ghosts is back, Bill cunning In 892 01:10:04.880 --> 01:10:10.000 the Great American As I travel the highways and the byways of this great country 893 01:10:10.000 --> 01:10:13.520 of ours, and I speak to those that are concerned about the future, 894 01:10:13.640 --> 01:10:16.760 almost always I heard the same thing. We are in trouble. Something is 895 01:10:16.800 --> 01:10:20.960 amiss, something is wrong. Things are out of control in the southern border 896 01:10:21.000 --> 01:10:27.199 with governmental spending, the lack of parental control, that kids are running schools. 897 01:10:27.279 --> 01:10:32.199 That's almost like a blackboard jungle. It's tough every aspect of American society. 898 01:10:32.520 --> 01:10:38.920 Homelessness, drug addiction, alcoholism, poop on the sidewalks, you're in 899 01:10:39.039 --> 01:10:42.720 everywhere. It's not the shining city on the Hill described by Ronald Reagan. 900 01:10:43.119 --> 01:10:46.920 We've always thought Americans were exceptional, and America is the shining city on the 901 01:10:47.000 --> 01:10:53.600 hill. When Barack Hussein Obama was elected president, he questioned Americans exceptionalism. 902 01:10:53.680 --> 01:10:57.199 He said, well, people in Sweden think they're exceptional, and people in 903 01:10:57.279 --> 01:11:01.039 Gaza think they're exceptional. Well, I always thought we're the ones that actually 904 01:11:01.039 --> 01:11:06.039 that are right about that. But a new book out by Anders Edwardson questions 905 01:11:06.079 --> 01:11:12.600 whether or not quote the radical betrayal, how liberals and neo cons are wrecking 906 01:11:12.640 --> 01:11:16.760 American exceptionalism. And that's why I think the election in November is extremely important. 907 01:11:17.119 --> 01:11:20.720 And once again the Anders Edwardson, welcome to the Bill Cunningham Show and 908 01:11:21.760 --> 01:11:27.279 tell the American people Andrews, as far as the reason you put the book 909 01:11:27.319 --> 01:11:30.720 together, the radical aspects of the left and the neocons, et cetera, 910 01:11:31.079 --> 01:11:38.760 why is America off track? First, thank you Bill for having me on. 911 01:11:40.279 --> 01:11:45.359 And they used to put things in perspective as the listener probably already I 912 01:11:45.479 --> 01:11:50.560 figured out of my clear Boston accent. I'm not an inborn American. I'm 913 01:11:50.600 --> 01:11:57.920 actually coming from Sweden that you mentioned, so I have a good perspective on 914 01:11:58.199 --> 01:12:03.640 socialism and welfare state and all that. And two, just to give you 915 01:12:03.640 --> 01:12:12.000 a very short synopsis on my book, it's the deef is in the subtitle 916 01:12:12.560 --> 01:12:19.279 how liberals and neoconservatives our wrecking American exceptionalism because these two groups, and we 917 01:12:19.319 --> 01:12:29.680 could discuss each group for hours, but each group the left mainly the liberals 918 01:12:29.720 --> 01:12:36.880 mainly through the federal welfare state, and radical so called neoconservatives on the right 919 01:12:38.000 --> 01:12:46.119 through their warfare state, the war in Iraq has costed us double both enormous 920 01:12:46.119 --> 01:12:55.479 amounts of money. The Great lbda's Great Society alone almost explains the whole national 921 01:12:56.600 --> 01:13:05.560 debt of thirty four trillion dollars. But they have also costed us something more 922 01:13:05.680 --> 01:13:12.039 that you can't put the value money value on. And that's that since they 923 01:13:12.039 --> 01:13:21.239 have both sides have used American exceptionalist sounding rhetoric to sell their policies, they 924 01:13:21.600 --> 01:13:27.479 glue, as I call it, of American exceptionalism that for two hundred plus 925 01:13:27.600 --> 01:13:33.800 years has hold this great nation together, has lost much of its coasts, 926 01:13:33.960 --> 01:13:41.119 its gluinoess, so to speak, because people have heard it so much, 927 01:13:41.359 --> 01:13:45.880 so long that they hardly believe anything anymore. Anderson, let me jump in 928 01:13:45.880 --> 01:13:50.840 there real fast, because I'm glad you put neocons along with liberals, because 929 01:13:51.039 --> 01:13:56.119 you have a great chapter on the federal welfare state of the nineteen sixties. 930 01:13:56.239 --> 01:14:00.159 LBJ et cetera, and out ripped America apart and told families the fathers have 931 01:14:00.279 --> 01:14:04.079 to leave the home. But the Iraqi war, and we had the A 932 01:14:04.359 --> 01:14:09.399 team and twenty oh one, twenty oh two, twenty oh three, we 933 01:14:09.439 --> 01:14:14.439 had Dick Cheney, we had George Bush one and two we had Donald Rumsfeldt, 934 01:14:14.479 --> 01:14:17.079 we had Colon Powell to go to war with Iraq. Here we are 935 01:14:17.119 --> 01:14:24.399 twenty years later, and it was an unmitigated disaster from every way, beginning 936 01:14:24.399 --> 01:14:29.039 with weapons of mass destruction that did not exist. It cost thousands of American 937 01:14:29.079 --> 01:14:33.960 lives, hundreds of thousands of Iraqi lives, and now Iran completely controls Iraq. 938 01:14:34.560 --> 01:14:41.079 And we got that so wrong. It cost trillions of dollars the Iraqi 939 01:14:41.159 --> 01:14:46.640 war throw on top of that, Afghanistan awful so internationally, America's neocons, 940 01:14:46.720 --> 01:14:51.159 the Dick Cheney's and the Rumsfels, the Colon Powells, George Bush one and 941 01:14:51.199 --> 01:14:57.520 two has cost Americans trillions of dollars and thousands of lives that cannot be replaced. 942 01:14:57.800 --> 01:15:02.399 The Taliban are still in charge of Afghani stand and Iran dominates Iraq right 943 01:15:02.439 --> 01:15:06.359 now. They have Hesbla Hamas, they have the Hooties, etc. Which 944 01:15:06.399 --> 01:15:11.720 is their outpost of terrorism. And it all began with the decision by Bush 945 01:15:11.760 --> 01:15:15.840 forty three to get in there and eliminate the weapons of mass destruction that did 946 01:15:15.840 --> 01:15:21.319 not exist. On top of that, domestically, you have massive domestic spending. 947 01:15:21.720 --> 01:15:27.079 When Biden took office about three years ago, America was coming out of 948 01:15:27.119 --> 01:15:30.960 the pandemic. The GDP was increasing, but all of a sudden, Democrats 949 01:15:31.000 --> 01:15:36.119 being democrats, they had to throw into the mix about two extra trillion dollars 950 01:15:36.119 --> 01:15:43.359 that had rampant inflation, etc. And you also have a section here about 951 01:15:43.359 --> 01:15:48.520 a super ideology supported by all Americans. Do you still believe today that Americans 952 01:15:48.520 --> 01:15:56.279 here we are in February March of twenty twenty four, that somehow schools are 953 01:15:56.359 --> 01:16:01.600 teaching American exceptionalism or is an America can sorrow about the schools with the teachers 954 01:16:01.840 --> 01:16:05.960 because garbage in, garbage out. I was taught America is exceptional. Now 955 01:16:05.960 --> 01:16:12.199 we're being taught something different. What role does public education play in this indoctrination. 956 01:16:14.279 --> 01:16:19.800 Oh, it's one of the main main culprits for the destruction or the 957 01:16:19.920 --> 01:16:28.279 erosion of the exceptionalist mindset in this country. America is still exceptional in many 958 01:16:28.319 --> 01:16:31.920 ways, but much less so than it was one hundred years ago, because 959 01:16:31.960 --> 01:16:40.600 the taxes has gone up, the regulations have multiplied, and the federal government 960 01:16:40.760 --> 01:16:46.800 is much more powerful today than just a few decades ago. So the original 961 01:16:46.960 --> 01:16:55.600 exceptionalism put in place by the founding fathers is all life support. But America, 962 01:16:55.600 --> 01:17:00.960 I still, thank God, much better over all than most countries, 963 01:17:01.039 --> 01:17:10.079 so all countries in Europe when it comes to personal liberties and business climate and 964 01:17:10.119 --> 01:17:15.039 stuff like that, and a general optimism. But absolutely the public school system, 965 01:17:15.199 --> 01:17:20.039 if they teach something today, as I understand it, they teach that 966 01:17:20.720 --> 01:17:28.239 America is exceptionally bad. Yea, And I mean this is like this is 967 01:17:28.319 --> 01:17:32.760 like I mean, Stalin and Breshna and the guys over in Moscow don't have 968 01:17:33.039 --> 01:17:39.840 dreamt about a better fifth column during the Cold War than having I don't know 969 01:17:39.840 --> 01:17:44.000 how many teachers we have in this country were probably a couple of millions, 970 01:17:44.239 --> 01:17:49.680 having a couple of million of anti American effect. With adiens spewing out anti 971 01:17:49.840 --> 01:17:57.960 Americanism Monday through Friday to small kids. We believe everything the teacher tells them. 972 01:17:58.199 --> 01:18:01.039 It's horrible, you know. Every day. I went to a public 973 01:18:01.079 --> 01:18:05.039 school called deer Park, and I went to Catholic education and then went to 974 01:18:05.079 --> 01:18:10.720 public education in deer Park High School. We began every day with a pledge 975 01:18:10.760 --> 01:18:15.720 of allegiance. We had special holidays as there were federal holidays. We wrote 976 01:18:15.720 --> 01:18:19.439 papers about how exceptional George Washington was, or Abraham Lincoln, how great. 977 01:18:19.880 --> 01:18:24.680 The fourth of July is Labor Day, celebrating working men and women. And 978 01:18:24.760 --> 01:18:30.960 so when you say exceptionally bad, and then I look at the academic results 979 01:18:30.199 --> 01:18:36.439 objectively of student achievement in high school, and twenty twenty four, twenty twenty 980 01:18:36.439 --> 01:18:41.680 three compared to nineteen eighty three, much less nineteen sixty three, we're teaching 981 01:18:41.800 --> 01:18:46.760 less and doctrinating more. And that when conservatives and some others parents point out 982 01:18:46.840 --> 01:18:54.000 the school should not be teaching these multicultural ideas and transgender rights and transitioning, 983 01:18:54.479 --> 01:18:57.840 that we're called the bigots for calling out those who have put that in the 984 01:18:57.880 --> 01:19:02.720 schools, when in reality ones who are not pursuing academic interest but rather political 985 01:19:02.760 --> 01:19:06.159 goals, and we're the ones pointing it out, such as there should not 986 01:19:06.199 --> 01:19:13.079 be porn in public libraries accessible to grade school kids. Now that's called book 987 01:19:13.119 --> 01:19:16.079 banning instead of swaying. But we can't have porn in the libraries and a 988 01:19:16.119 --> 01:19:20.159 grade school, elementary school, And then we're called we want to ban books 989 01:19:20.199 --> 01:19:26.119 because we don't want to show genitelia to a seven year old girl. And 990 01:19:26.159 --> 01:19:30.119 suddenly we're the ones being being accepted by this. And so when you say, 991 01:19:30.119 --> 01:19:32.840 exceptionally bad anders, Can you give us any hope? Is there any 992 01:19:32.880 --> 01:19:38.119 sense in February March of twenty twenty four we're going to be better in the 993 01:19:38.159 --> 01:19:41.159 next three to five years. I say the answer is no. I think 994 01:19:41.159 --> 01:19:45.720 it's getting worse. We've not hit the bottom yet. I'm a little bit 995 01:19:45.760 --> 01:19:53.159 more up to be good and I'm optimistic for one specific reason, if nothing 996 01:19:53.239 --> 01:19:58.439 else, the good American people, the salt of the earth people out in 997 01:19:59.640 --> 01:20:08.199 small cities and towns and villages across this great country. I would say that 998 01:20:08.239 --> 01:20:13.760 if if we had one hundred percent participation in the elections, these people who 999 01:20:13.760 --> 01:20:21.359 are in command of policy and schools and stuff today wouldn't even get thirty five 1000 01:20:21.399 --> 01:20:30.840 percent. It's probably closer to twenty five percent. Because it's an alien ideology 1001 01:20:31.319 --> 01:20:36.880 to what America was set up to be and was for a very very long 1002 01:20:36.960 --> 01:20:43.520 time. And when you talk to normal people in the streets in the stores, 1003 01:20:44.840 --> 01:20:50.319 they are just rolling their eyes. But unfortunately almost half doesn't go and 1004 01:20:50.479 --> 01:21:00.199 vote, and even in presidential elections. So we are ruled by a minority 1005 01:21:00.239 --> 01:21:11.680 influential and small minority based in the big cities and community community college campuses and 1006 01:21:11.760 --> 01:21:15.880 stuff. Across the country. Well, the American people itself is the home. 1007 01:21:16.319 --> 01:21:20.159 I'm I'm glad you're optimistic, because I sit here and I like to 1008 01:21:20.199 --> 01:21:25.199 think things are going to be. I look at our magnificent cities New York 1009 01:21:25.239 --> 01:21:28.960 City, I look at San Francisco. I look at Chicago, Portland, 1010 01:21:29.680 --> 01:21:32.800 Austin, Texas, Cincinnati, Ohio, the magnificent cities that have been erected 1011 01:21:32.840 --> 01:21:38.880 over the past two hundred years. They're systematically being destroyed by a left wing 1012 01:21:38.960 --> 01:21:45.399 socialist ideology in which productive Americans are encouraged to leave, and unproductive Americans and 1013 01:21:45.479 --> 01:21:49.640 foreigners who are not here legally are encouraged to come. And so can America 1014 01:21:49.760 --> 01:21:56.239 survive with twenty or thirty our largest cities that are ripe with crime and violence 1015 01:21:56.279 --> 01:22:02.039 and dysfunctional school systems and no job creation and all the results of a left 1016 01:22:02.039 --> 01:22:09.600 wing audiology. Can we survive of our major cities are collapsing. It's hard, 1017 01:22:09.680 --> 01:22:16.640 of course, because cities are hubs of the business and intellectual development media 1018 01:22:17.000 --> 01:22:25.479 universities. So what happens there has an enormous influence outside the rot and core 1019 01:22:25.560 --> 01:22:29.840 of the cities also, so to speak. But at the same time, 1020 01:22:29.920 --> 01:22:36.640 the masses of people are still not living in these ten twelve hell holes. 1021 01:22:36.880 --> 01:22:43.680 Sorry, my friend, it's so, and there is the hope. But 1022 01:22:44.680 --> 01:22:48.439 it will be an uphill battle to turn this around, that's for sure. 1023 01:22:48.520 --> 01:22:57.359 But if any people are destined to be able to turn this Western decline around, 1024 01:22:57.560 --> 01:23:01.439 it's the American people. The Europeanians will definitely not do it. Well. 1025 01:23:01.439 --> 01:23:06.880 Why not because you have great connections to Sweden. Why is the continent 1026 01:23:06.960 --> 01:23:12.560 to the Western democracies not the place to turn things around? Because of what 1027 01:23:12.760 --> 01:23:18.119 reason? For the simple reason that if you think America is woke today, 1028 01:23:19.199 --> 01:23:26.119 Europe is ten times worse. They are even further to the left. They 1029 01:23:26.159 --> 01:23:39.560 are even more anti nationalist, pro multicultural uh and everything they have they have 1030 01:23:39.800 --> 01:23:47.199 copied the American walk left and take it to even further extremes. There is 1031 01:23:47.479 --> 01:23:54.520 a small kind of reaction going on now with some right wing new right wing 1032 01:23:54.600 --> 01:24:00.079 governance in like Italy and Sweden and Holland, but overall they are still much 1033 01:24:00.199 --> 01:24:04.920 deeper in the hole than we are even and I would think Andrews the reason 1034 01:24:05.039 --> 01:24:11.199 is the product of the education system, which is the leveling influence of the 1035 01:24:11.279 --> 01:24:15.720 family life one might have. In Europe, they're like Harvard, Yale, 1036 01:24:15.039 --> 01:24:23.359 University of Chicago, Stanford, UCLA. They're producing marching socialist at an ever 1037 01:24:23.479 --> 01:24:28.439 increasing number. And America has got to stop the march towards socialism. And 1038 01:24:28.479 --> 01:24:31.119 at least there's a little bit of an effort in America because of talk radio 1039 01:24:31.680 --> 01:24:35.840 and because of books like yours. It is freedom. Could you publish a 1040 01:24:35.880 --> 01:24:43.079 book like this, Anders Edwardson and get it published, say in Germany or 1041 01:24:43.119 --> 01:24:47.880 Holland or France, or Sweden or Denmark. Could you actually criticize the system 1042 01:24:48.359 --> 01:24:54.479 in Europe and get away with it. You can do it if you can 1043 01:24:54.640 --> 01:25:00.319 find a publisher. But it's finding a publisher is prepared to do it that 1044 01:25:00.560 --> 01:25:04.079 is the problem. I before I moved over here in twenty eleven, I 1045 01:25:04.279 --> 01:25:12.600 published a somewhat similar book about the modern Swedish history that was very critical, 1046 01:25:12.680 --> 01:25:15.880 and I got it out through a right wing think tank and it created a 1047 01:25:15.920 --> 01:25:23.319 lot of debate, but it was so far off the mainstream when it came 1048 01:25:23.399 --> 01:25:29.600 to how Sweden became a rich country to start with and stuff that the debate 1049 01:25:30.039 --> 01:25:33.319 came and went in a year or two, and today it's just back to 1050 01:25:33.359 --> 01:25:40.640 the old thing that it was. The social democrats who built modern Sweden and 1051 01:25:40.680 --> 01:25:45.560 stuff when that's a pure lie. But that's a different story. But yes 1052 01:25:45.960 --> 01:25:50.560 to us your question. You can publish it as long as it's not had 1053 01:25:50.600 --> 01:25:59.880 any direct racist or hate speech in it. But it's to find a publisher. 1054 01:26:00.800 --> 01:26:06.000 It was relatively easy here in America, yeah, but in Europe it 1055 01:26:06.079 --> 01:26:12.600 would be a very hard old all right, Anders Edwardson. The name of 1056 01:26:12.640 --> 01:26:17.960 the book is Radical Betrayal how liberals and neacns are wrecking American exceptionalism. It 1057 01:26:18.039 --> 01:26:23.800 takes a look at the history of exceptionalism and right now the schools in America 1058 01:26:23.840 --> 01:26:27.479 are exceptionally bad and we have to change that. It all begins at the 1059 01:26:27.520 --> 01:26:30.640 ballot box in November. If we see there's a problem and keep the same 1060 01:26:30.680 --> 01:26:34.720 individuals in charge that cause the problems in the first place. We're going nowhere. 1061 01:26:34.760 --> 01:26:39.840 But Andrews Edwardson welcome, Thank you for coming on the Bill Cunningham Show, 1062 01:26:39.880 --> 01:26:42.279 and with your permission, we'll do it again. Thank you, Anders 1063 01:26:43.239 --> 01:26:46.319 absolutely, thank you for having me. God blessurell Let's continue with more and 1064 01:26:46.319 --> 01:26:48.920 if a line becomes available five one, three, seven, four, nine, 1065 01:26:48.920 --> 01:26:54.399 seven thousand, see public schools as the eleven influence of bad or good 1066 01:26:54.399 --> 01:27:00.199 family life to produce marching capitalists and marching great Americans and not marching socials. 1067 01:27:00.319 --> 01:27:04.039 As Anders said many many years ago, communists said that America will fall from 1068 01:27:04.079 --> 01:27:10.199 within, and the Great Abraham Lincoln said that no foreign power can put a 1069 01:27:10.279 --> 01:27:14.239 step under the Blue Ridge Mountains or a cup water out of the Ohio River 1070 01:27:14.640 --> 01:27:17.279 and take over this great country. And when America falls, it'll be from 1071 01:27:17.359 --> 01:27:21.399 within. And that's what's happening. I fear. Let's continue with more. 1072 01:27:21.439 --> 01:27:27.279 Bill Cunningham News Radio seven hundred WULW. Any jeweler can sell you an ordinary 1073 01:27:27.319 --> 01:27:30.199 engagement rate, but only one jeweler here can offer you brands like to Corey 1074 01:27:30.560 --> 01:27:35.560 of our group in Milwaukee, playing Marquette is just fundamentally unacceptable. They they 1075 01:27:35.560 --> 01:27:39.720 were not ready to play, they did not play with great effort. And 1076 01:27:39.760 --> 01:27:43.439 there's a couple guys that quite frankly, don't deserve to play anymore. It's 1077 01:27:43.479 --> 01:27:58.720 just it's it's it's where it's at. Hello, Quiet, I'm broadcasting your 1078 01:27:58.760 --> 01:28:03.039 last night rock. Sean Miller went after his own players, Allah Rick Beatino, 1079 01:28:04.239 --> 01:28:10.680 and who these players, who coaches these players, who motivates these players, 1080 01:28:10.880 --> 01:28:15.159 who travels with these players, and Sean Miller says, I'm separating myself 1081 01:28:15.199 --> 01:28:17.800 from my players. Put the cheese on the cracker, didn't you say that? 1082 01:28:17.920 --> 01:28:21.000 Right there? The two guys that's putting the team on alert. At 1083 01:28:21.039 --> 01:28:26.159 least they have to Paul coming up. He knows that the players read the 1084 01:28:26.199 --> 01:28:29.399 headlines, they read the columns, they listen to the sound bites. So 1085 01:28:29.439 --> 01:28:31.720 they're all put on alert right now. But at the end of the day, 1086 01:28:31.960 --> 01:28:36.159 he selected them, he's coaching them. It's his team, his team, 1087 01:28:36.640 --> 01:28:40.560 Okay, And they played to Paul, then they played Butler, then 1088 01:28:40.600 --> 01:28:45.720 they play Mark head here to end the season. Not good. So is 1089 01:28:45.720 --> 01:28:48.199 there any hope? No hope. There's no hope because they have to win 1090 01:28:48.279 --> 01:28:51.079 the tournament to get into the tournament. Are they going to March? They're 1091 01:28:51.079 --> 01:28:55.119 gonna have to play Thursday or Friday at noon. They have to play like 1092 01:28:55.199 --> 01:28:59.560 four games in three days, correct, And if they against like Creighton, 1093 01:29:00.479 --> 01:29:05.000 uh yukon Providence again probably yeah, a few of the otherwords. And the 1094 01:29:05.039 --> 01:29:09.880 twenty seventeen Golden State Warriors got to beat them too. Yeah. So I 1095 01:29:09.920 --> 01:29:13.800 don't like. I don't like chances at this point, not good chances at 1096 01:29:14.119 --> 01:29:16.159 msg who's got a better chance. You see your Xavier going to make it 1097 01:29:16.199 --> 01:29:23.000 to the Big Show, neither neither. Well, you see us Houston tonight 1098 01:29:23.039 --> 01:29:30.640 correct Houston tonight, then I'll believe I could inject much needed ho Wes Miller. 1099 01:29:30.680 --> 01:29:34.960 Where they beat Houston tonight in Houston when they're number one team the nation. 1100 01:29:35.039 --> 01:29:39.960 That's pretty tough. Speaking of you, The Reds lost yesterday after you 1101 01:29:40.079 --> 01:29:43.960 jinxed them, Well I did, I was half right though. They came 1102 01:29:43.960 --> 01:29:46.079 back. They played two games, two games and they won Wash. So 1103 01:29:46.119 --> 01:29:50.279 there's still three and one in first place. They're one game back behind the 1104 01:29:50.359 --> 01:29:56.079 Dodgers in the Cactus League. Dodgers League. Dodgers are pretty good, pretty 1105 01:29:56.079 --> 01:29:58.399 good, and they got a pretty nice payroll as well. It's a good 1106 01:29:58.399 --> 01:30:00.800 thing the Reds aren't in the same division that Dodgers. Does Rocky know about 1107 01:30:00.800 --> 01:30:05.600 this new nil deal? How about this rock hit me with it? You 1108 01:30:05.640 --> 01:30:11.439 know they got in deals for cars, homes, everything else. On the 1109 01:30:11.479 --> 01:30:19.680 first the first nil private jet deal has been this Heisman candidate old miss quarterback 1110 01:30:19.800 --> 01:30:25.399 Jackson dark Art Yeah, signs a deal with Nicholas Air. I guess it's 1111 01:30:25.399 --> 01:30:31.319 some outfit in Mississippi. This endorsement provides dark hours of the entire fleet of 1112 01:30:31.399 --> 01:30:38.199 jets whatever he wants from Nicholas Air for travel, training, et cetera, 1113 01:30:38.640 --> 01:30:42.479 et cetera. I would just love to sit in on one of these phone 1114 01:30:42.520 --> 01:30:46.079 calls or meetings between a twenty year old, twenty one twenty two year old 1115 01:30:46.079 --> 01:30:50.399 player and a head coach of a major university saying, coach, I really 1116 01:30:50.479 --> 01:30:53.880 like your program, and I kind of like what's going on here. I've 1117 01:30:53.880 --> 01:30:57.560 got a few friends and stuff, but the other school is going to offer 1118 01:30:57.560 --> 01:31:00.840 me a plane, so, uh, what you got? I was nervous 1119 01:31:00.880 --> 01:31:05.800 to talk to my college head coach about anything, let let alone demanding I 1120 01:31:05.880 --> 01:31:12.359 get money a plane or check. What about that state quarterback your name prior 1121 01:31:12.640 --> 01:31:16.239 who got a tattoo, got a tattoo in exchange for some Rose Bowl tickets 1122 01:31:16.239 --> 01:31:19.680 and he was that's what ran what's his name out of out of town Jim 1123 01:31:23.800 --> 01:31:27.960 tattoo. Yeah, it's amazing. Now it's private air travel plus a million 1124 01:31:28.039 --> 01:31:30.199 dollars? Is this good? Is this good for young people? I know, 1125 01:31:30.399 --> 01:31:33.039 okay, I know money helps a lot of things, but is this 1126 01:31:33.600 --> 01:31:36.840 good? No, it's bad. They do have rules. What are there 1127 01:31:36.920 --> 01:31:41.479 are the rules? No, there's no rules, that's the thing, and 1128 01:31:41.479 --> 01:31:44.880 and everyone everyone is an agreement, I guess, maybe except the players, 1129 01:31:45.199 --> 01:31:48.199 but all the coaches, all the administrators, all the the league and conference 1130 01:31:48.600 --> 01:31:51.479 heads saying, look, we got to put some guardrails on this because this 1131 01:31:51.520 --> 01:31:55.600 is out of control. But yet no one does anything. When you think 1132 01:31:55.600 --> 01:31:59.520 of the school like Alabama in a poor state, Nick Saban looks at it 1133 01:31:59.560 --> 01:32:02.239 going forward forward to see, Yeah, wouldn't want to be Florida. The 1134 01:32:02.359 --> 01:32:05.960 rich people at Notre Dame. I listen on YouTube last night. Notre Dame 1135 01:32:06.359 --> 01:32:11.960 could be the odd man out that the Big Ten picks up among our other 1136 01:32:12.000 --> 01:32:15.800 schools Clemson and Florida State, that SEC picks up two or three more, 1137 01:32:16.159 --> 01:32:21.239 and the ACC completely collapses and Notre Dame's on the outside looking in. No, 1138 01:32:21.239 --> 01:32:26.039 no, if Notre Dame wants to join the Big Ten or frankly the 1139 01:32:26.079 --> 01:32:29.159 SEC, if they say, look we want to, that will happen. 1140 01:32:29.279 --> 01:32:31.840 But Notre Dame as of right now doesn't want to because they have a lucrative 1141 01:32:31.880 --> 01:32:36.840 TV contract. But but that thing is up here, I believe next year, 1142 01:32:38.039 --> 01:32:40.880 so they're probably negotiating that thing as we speak. And if it's not 1143 01:32:40.920 --> 01:32:43.159 in the neighbor I think right now, it pays them like the NBC deal 1144 01:32:43.199 --> 01:32:45.319 pays in like twenty six something a year, twenty six million, that's not 1145 01:32:45.359 --> 01:32:51.319 in the neighborhood of fifty probably sixty. Then then that would be the real 1146 01:32:51.439 --> 01:32:55.159 that would be Listen to me when I say this, that will be the 1147 01:32:55.199 --> 01:32:59.800 only reason that Notre Dame will join the conference. The money is so much 1148 01:32:59.800 --> 01:33:01.520 of a disparagy. What about Stephen A.

Really, you can say that 1151 01:33:10.600 --> 01:33:15.000 about your brother at ESPN, that he's irrelevant and immaterial. Is that what 1152 01:33:15.039 --> 01:33:18.359 you're saction?

The other gun point at them is the whole 1163 01:34:00.000 --> 01:34:03.000 bureaucracy of Atlanta and Fanny Willis and all that things saying. Don't say the 1164 01:34:03.000 --> 01:34:08.960 wrong thing, otherwise your career is over. I can't remember, Radley, 1165 01:34:09.840 --> 01:34:13.680 I have a selective memory.

I don't know about that. I can't give 1168 01:34:21.359 --> 01:34:28.239 you any The best answer is I don't remember. It is that I don't 1169 01:34:28.279 --> 01:34:30.359 know. It's I can't recall, can't recall. How do you argue with 1170 01:34:30.439 --> 01:34:33.199 that? Oh, I don't know. I like that kind of testimony. 1171 01:34:33.199 --> 01:34:39.760 I don't know. Bill lawyers would teach people that I don't That's not how 1172 01:34:39.800 --> 01:34:43.680 I remember it. I don't give me some sports. Well, yeah, 1173 01:34:43.720 --> 01:34:45.520 let's see the red legs are getting ready to be a battle of Cubs today 1174 01:34:45.560 --> 01:34:50.840 in Cactus League action Frankie Montoss on the mound and the action on Fox Sports 1175 01:34:50.880 --> 01:34:55.640 thirteen sixty after the game of the Hot Stove League.

Could 1178 01:35:04.760 --> 01:35:11.640 start lights swinging maybe next week, light swinging the back right hopefully. He's 1179 01:35:11.760 --> 01:35:15.760 one of my favorite players along with Abbott, So I would anticipate that you 1180 01:35:15.800 --> 01:35:18.079 could have a situation where this could be a lingering injury, much like a 1181 01:35:18.079 --> 01:35:23.000 hamstring correct hamstring can That's not the case. We have time right now. 1182 01:35:23.079 --> 01:35:28.600 Let's got to got a month opening day a month from today, weeks from 1183 01:35:28.960 --> 01:35:31.479 today.

The coach one from Jordan. Salkin comes over from the 1189 01:35:53.800 --> 01:36:00.680 University of Oregon, is an offensive assistant. Ronnie Reguya defensive assistant, over 1190 01:36:00.720 --> 01:36:03.800 from Notre Dame. He played college ball at Mount Saint Joe. How about 1191 01:36:03.800 --> 01:36:10.119 that? And then Ben Jacobs as a special team's assistant. Uh. He 1192 01:36:10.479 --> 01:36:16.479 has coaching experience in the National Football League with the Panthers and Commanders. Got 1193 01:36:16.520 --> 01:36:20.119 it right here twenty three. I like to bring some new blood in, 1194 01:36:20.279 --> 01:36:24.880 get some new ideas around there. It's a good thing. Until nine o'clock. 1195 01:36:24.920 --> 01:36:29.560 It's Mike McConnell on Red's opening day. Nine to eleven, it's sloany 1196 01:36:29.720 --> 01:36:31.680 and mo It's kind of the weakest part of the day. We agree, 1197 01:36:32.239 --> 01:36:36.079 and then eleven to one we start to build Eddie and the Rock. Yeah, 1198 01:36:36.199 --> 01:36:41.560 eleven to one, Holy Grail on election on the opening day. Then 1199 01:36:41.640 --> 01:36:45.560 one to two is William seg I only get one hour, but from two 1200 01:36:45.640 --> 01:36:49.159 to three forty you start your speech. Though maybe at the beginning of your 1201 01:36:49.159 --> 01:36:54.399 hour. You know he's gonna start at nine am with Mike, and it 1202 01:36:54.479 --> 01:36:57.800 won't end because these things do not exist in a vacuum. He's going to 1203 01:36:57.920 --> 01:37:02.359 name every Reds player from A to Z came for somebody asking you start start 1204 01:37:02.399 --> 01:37:06.199 with a big red machine, you start nineteen seventy five, by like the 1205 01:37:06.319 --> 01:37:11.439 nineteen hundreds, Let's just start nineteen seventy five, and then by maybe by 1206 01:37:11.479 --> 01:37:15.840 the NQ you can get to like because by then the one two World Series 1207 01:37:15.000 --> 01:37:20.239 correct in nineteen nineteen, which is somewhat maybe a little bit askewed with an 1208 01:37:20.279 --> 01:37:25.680 asterisk, not sure about shulish Joe Jackson. Then nineteen forty when they beat 1209 01:37:25.720 --> 01:37:29.520 the Tigers on the Evil Word War two, g I Joe was ready to 1210 01:37:29.560 --> 01:37:31.520 march and free the world, and the reds Room before that, before that 1211 01:37:31.640 --> 01:37:35.319 the reds Marster glory. In nineteen nineteen, back from World War One, 1212 01:37:35.399 --> 01:37:41.159 the dough Boys back from ver Done one and two, with slime and filth 1213 01:37:41.199 --> 01:37:44.279 and dirt all over their bodies, they came back and said, let's play 1214 01:37:44.279 --> 01:37:47.199 ball. All's quiet on the Western Front nineteen nineteen. What happened, shulis 1215 01:37:47.239 --> 01:37:54.479 Joe was that legitimate. I can't say, Sike don't know forty They lost 1216 01:37:54.479 --> 01:37:57.840 in thirty nine, as you know with Ivyl Goodman, you might recall they 1217 01:37:57.880 --> 01:38:00.439 lost to the Yankees. Remember ival, Remember noodles, hon Noodles, Han 1218 01:38:00.600 --> 01:38:04.359 You forget noodles had a little problem there, but nineteen forty and one of 1219 01:38:04.359 --> 01:38:09.960 the catchers was Heiny Grow. Heiny Grow showed us his heiney and Fanny got 1220 01:38:09.960 --> 01:38:15.880 Frank McCormick, you got Schnauz, you got uh yeah, you got also 1221 01:38:16.079 --> 01:38:20.039 Holy and Nana Witz played left remember Holy on. But you're getting off track 1222 01:38:20.039 --> 01:38:24.960 here again. Let's start with a big red machine released. Some of the 1223 01:38:25.000 --> 01:38:29.920 listeners know that the names and experience them. And about Antonio, he played 1224 01:38:29.920 --> 01:38:32.239 center field until you get that name on the back. What I want to 1225 01:38:32.239 --> 01:38:35.520 know is are they going to get the uniform thing figured out where you can't 1226 01:38:35.560 --> 01:38:41.000 have to see through, pay the translucent pants and go. I think they're 1227 01:38:41.000 --> 01:38:44.760 doing that kind of hanging out. They're doing that for the after the female 1228 01:38:44.800 --> 01:38:47.159 audience. Exact Martin move. Ladies love that too, Ladies. Yeah, 1229 01:38:47.319 --> 01:38:53.800 spending a little extra time on those websites. You'll see us men doing no. 1230 01:38:54.359 --> 01:38:57.039 I don't know. I don't check that Senough like second running from first 1231 01:38:57.079 --> 01:39:00.800 to third wild Man does. But all I can say is the women love 1232 01:39:00.880 --> 01:39:03.119 to see naked men. I know that they dig the home run, absolutely, 1233 01:39:03.159 --> 01:39:06.680 they dig the long the long boss. Well, that's true. That's 1234 01:39:06.680 --> 01:39:10.800 true. Give me some more sports that you're sitting there with the basketball. 1235 01:39:10.800 --> 01:39:15.720 Tonight Willy number one Houston will play host our beloved bear Cats six thirty seven 1236 01:39:15.800 --> 01:39:20.359 hundred WLW Davidson and Dayton Kentucky and Mississippi State, the Cats and the Dogs. 1237 01:39:20.359 --> 01:39:26.319 Tonight Miami RedHawks at Bowling Green and Wisconsin takes on Indiana. Trying to 1238 01:39:26.319 --> 01:39:30.920 make a cat bark. You cannot make a cat bark. Well, they 1239 01:39:30.960 --> 01:39:35.640 scored what one hundred and seventeen points against Alabama. Who knows what they're gonna 1240 01:39:35.680 --> 01:39:40.439 do? Cats do not bark. Write that down and then FC Cincinnati back 1241 01:39:40.439 --> 01:39:45.039 in action tomorrow night in the second round of the Conka Calf Championship champions Cup. 1242 01:39:45.560 --> 01:39:48.239 And of course, last night Mexico beat the United States and the Women's 1243 01:39:48.600 --> 01:39:55.239 Gold Cup two nil, major upset. Where's Megan Rippino when you need her? 1244 01:39:55.960 --> 01:40:00.199 I hope she coaching or doing anything. Cares doun and done please he's 1245 01:40:00.279 --> 01:40:05.239 God. Yeah, and take it to be just not a good ambassador or 1246 01:40:05.319 --> 01:40:11.079 spokesperson for the women's national team. Well, would you agree we think we're 1247 01:40:11.119 --> 01:40:15.399 an exceptional country. She thinks America is exceptionally bad. But the whole premise 1248 01:40:15.439 --> 01:40:19.159 of sports is being exceptional, and that's the goal. That's the essence of 1249 01:40:19.199 --> 01:40:21.920 it is our team is more exceptional than yours is, and we're going to 1250 01:40:21.960 --> 01:40:25.880 prove it right now. On the front of the jersey, says us A. 1251 01:40:26.319 --> 01:40:28.640 Yes, you don't want to play, remember the name on the front 1252 01:40:28.680 --> 01:40:32.159 as the more important. Get that through your head. I got that, 1253 01:40:32.319 --> 01:40:35.159 okay. But when you put USA on your shirt, you should say I 1254 01:40:35.239 --> 01:40:40.479 represent the United States of America and I'm gonna play hard. We're an exceptional 1255 01:40:40.520 --> 01:40:44.079 country. Nothing else, nothing else. I'll play not anymore. But she 1256 01:40:44.199 --> 01:40:47.760 was rewarded like her faction of people have made her rich by having a hate 1257 01:40:47.800 --> 01:40:53.359 America attitude. Question, there's a certain way looking. So the answer to 1258 01:40:53.439 --> 01:40:58.720 the question is why she's doing because it works as a collective country said, 1259 01:40:58.840 --> 01:41:01.159 I don't care regards of politics. You're not going to spit on our country. 1260 01:41:01.319 --> 01:41:04.960 Until that happens, we're gonna get more of this. Snots out last 1261 01:41:05.039 --> 01:41:09.600 year with the forty nine ers. He was one in fifteen and they released 1262 01:41:09.680 --> 01:41:13.199 him. Then he became a hero to the radical left because he knelt, 1263 01:41:13.640 --> 01:41:16.359 he did what not? Have you seen the viewership numbers? It directly matches 1264 01:41:16.479 --> 01:41:21.000 up with you know, with viewership dipping during when all the kneeling and stuff 1265 01:41:21.039 --> 01:41:24.600 was going on, and now it's through the stratus here. When's the last 1266 01:41:24.600 --> 01:41:27.960 time you saw a player Neil three years ago? Maybe four through. It's 1267 01:41:27.960 --> 01:41:30.960 all about the dough, the ray and the meat, green salad, the 1268 01:41:30.000 --> 01:41:33.760 salvation. That's what it's all about. Yep. Speaking of the ad, 1269 01:41:33.760 --> 01:41:39.640 man is back good. It's back from his birthday vacation. He went on 1270 01:41:39.680 --> 01:41:45.319 a cruise and he plays some blackjack, hung out and now he's back, 1271 01:41:45.359 --> 01:41:48.640 ready to return the ship somewhere. As he's back, he's back when I 1272 01:41:48.680 --> 01:41:50.720 do the show with me here in a few minutes. I like Eddie. 1273 01:41:50.880 --> 01:41:55.000 Eddie Fingers is my kind of a guy. Happy he's back. Happy he's 1274 01:41:55.039 --> 01:41:57.199 back. What else do you have scheduled? If anything, Let's see what 1275 01:41:57.399 --> 01:42:00.560 you're you said the other day you like Donna Dee better? Did you hit 1276 01:42:00.600 --> 01:42:03.520 the dump button? Hit it? See if it works. You have your 1277 01:42:03.920 --> 01:42:08.479 girlfriend Tanya right out of gate three o'clock. I'm gonna have her on Friday, 1278 01:42:08.479 --> 01:42:12.439 by the way, what our guests I know, but that's not going 1279 01:42:12.479 --> 01:42:14.399 to be on the air, but she's going to come in. We're going 1280 01:42:14.479 --> 01:42:16.800 to talk about certain issues. And she said she wanted to do a little 1281 01:42:16.840 --> 01:42:20.840 story on me, and I said, okay, wow, private story. 1282 01:42:20.880 --> 01:42:26.039 I can't say. I can't say about that. At four o'clock, Joe, 1283 01:42:26.079 --> 01:42:30.479 think about that. We have a thunderfold coming out of it and make 1284 01:42:30.520 --> 01:42:32.640 it to the elevator. By the way. Four o'clock we have a guest 1285 01:42:32.680 --> 01:42:36.319 on, John Stuart Hill. He's going to answer the question why is America 1286 01:42:36.439 --> 01:42:41.800 becoming less religious? That's another scene with the news coming out of all the 1287 01:42:42.079 --> 01:42:45.840 local Catholic churches that are closing, and people are all bent out of shape. 1288 01:42:45.840 --> 01:42:47.079 But what do you do? You want a mask? You know, 1289 01:42:47.479 --> 01:42:53.159 society should encourage family formation, not punish it. And right now there are 1290 01:42:53.239 --> 01:42:55.439 good things to happen if you don't we as you know, if you have 1291 01:42:55.600 --> 01:42:59.640 kids, that's a strain on the environment. So to you should have no 1292 01:42:59.680 --> 01:43:01.159 pets because they breathe more than humans. And if you have a dog, 1293 01:43:01.159 --> 01:43:04.560 you're not helping the environment because of the co Two. Of course, wildfires 1294 01:43:04.560 --> 01:43:09.920 and volcanic eruptions, forget about them. They don't cause any problems in the 1295 01:43:09.920 --> 01:43:14.760 atmosphere. It's your dog breathing dog. And in fact, you should skip 1296 01:43:14.760 --> 01:43:20.239 a bread flatulence. Speaking of flatulence segment, give me out of the Stude's 1297 01:43:20.279 --> 01:43:25.960 report. Please well, lee in honor of a rainy day coming up and 1298 01:43:26.039 --> 01:43:30.720 win in the Reds getting another victory today? Easy. I'm predicting a Red's 1299 01:43:30.800 --> 01:43:35.399 victory today over the Dodgers. Oh they play the Cubs. Predict that too. 1300 01:43:35.520 --> 01:43:41.199 We leave you with the immortal words of the Stood Report. If you 1301 01:43:41.239 --> 01:43:45.119 don't think you have a problem in your community, you're probably wrong. Now, 1302 01:43:45.199 --> 01:43:46.720 lastly, I had on the governor about an hour ago. This is 1303 01:43:46.800 --> 01:43:50.560 how he started out his interview. Listen, before you say anything, you've 1304 01:43:50.560 --> 01:43:55.000 got to change your introduction. Walk up. Music that bad to the bone 1305 01:43:55.079 --> 01:43:58.720 is too dated. You know what? His favorite song is the theme song 1306 01:43:58.760 --> 01:44:02.199 of the Jetsons. And he says, my song is what the jes It's 1307 01:44:02.239 --> 01:44:09.800 an iconic indro. I thank you. It'd be like the have a riot, 1308 01:44:10.159 --> 01:44:13.399 you'd have a riot. But Mike thinks I got to update my act 1309 01:44:14.239 --> 01:44:17.000 instead of the nineteen eighties for him. The last time Mike updated his act 1310 01:44:18.119 --> 01:44:23.479 nineteen sixties. We're saving that one right there. Might want to use it. 1311 01:44:23.560 --> 01:44:27.640 He might be the vice president of the United States. If Donald Trump 1312 01:44:27.680 --> 01:44:30.840 calls you to be the VP. What do you say? Yeah? Who's 1313 01:44:30.840 --> 01:44:32.199 it going to be? Right now? Gun your head? Who's Trump's VP? 1314 01:44:32.439 --> 01:44:41.079 Iron? Donald, Taulsie Gabbard? I like her a lot or AVEC. 1315 01:44:41.680 --> 01:44:44.000 I think Tulsie because she's hot, and I think he like you. 1316 01:44:44.079 --> 01:44:46.680 Think that's a good show. He likes women. He won't vote for a 1317 01:44:46.680 --> 01:44:49.840 look at AOC. Why do people like her? She's hot? He's a 1318 01:44:49.880 --> 01:44:54.880 waitress. Gonna go back to the barn. Thank you, sir. Seven 1319 01:44:55.000 --> 01:45:02.760 hundred w l W you what are you from? Atlantic? In the news 1320 01:45:02.760 --> 01:45:08.039 today, some Republicans are turning their backs on Donald Trump. They endorsed him 1321 01:45:08.039 --> 01:45:11.640 out of fear, but then did nothing else, even as Democrats are suing 1322 01:45:11.680 --> 01:45:15.199 to remove mister Trump from the ballot. Guess who went all the way to 1323 01:45:15.279 --> 01:45:20.279 the Supreme Court to keep President Trump on the ballot, Conservative Republican Larry Kidd. 1324 01:45:20.760 --> 01:45:26.319 No other congressional candidate in the country came to President Trump's defense, only 1325 01:45:26.479 --> 01:45:30.359 Larry Kidd. I was really ticked off when Democrats removed President Trump from the 1326 01:45:30.399 --> 01:45:32.840 ballot in Maine, in Colorado. That's why I was so glad Larry Kidd 1327 01:45:32.880 --> 01:45:35.039 went to court to stop it. Yeah, it seems like the other guy's 1328 01:45:35.119 --> 01:45:39.479 running for Congress just say they support Trump. The Larry Kidd went to court 1329 01:45:39.479 --> 01:45:44.000 to help Trump elect the pro Trump Republican to Congress, the one who personally 1330 01:45:44.079 --> 01:45:47.680 intervened to protect the Constitution and President Trump. You know, Larry Kidd, 1331 01:45:47.800 --> 01:45:53.399 the new kid in town. I'm Larry Kidd, and I approved this message 1332 01:45:53.600 --> 01:45:57.720 paid for by kid for Congress. If you compare a diamond from Genesis Diamonds 1333 01:45:57.760 --> 01:45:59.560 to one you find somewhere else, one thing
