All right, Billy Cunningham, The Grand America is back in about thirty minutes.
I will discuss where I've been in the past two weeks and the impact
you said. If you're on my Twitter accounting all you had a pretty good
idea what happened and involved me riding a camel. That's all I can say.
And the People's Judge also in the back of a camel. Coming up
later is Jilly Gunlock of the Independent Women's Form and more and Brian Hamrick.
Welcome again to the Bill Cunningham Show. And Brian, if you ever warned,
ever ever got on the back of a camel and just went nuts on
the back of a camera? Ever ever do that? Thanks again, mister
Cunningham. No, I do not believe I had been on the back of
a camel. What'd you get on the back of a camel if you had
to? But if you didn't have one help, I would do it,
especially if I needed that mode of transportation. They still the camel was still
a viable mode of transportation in some parts of the world, and I think
it's still the best way to get around in some places. Well, if
you're in a desert area, there's nothing like a camel. And this camel,
of course, he had some flatulence and some spitting, but other than
the spitting and the flatulence, it was a good camel. And a little
story before we talk about uptown rental property, and also what happened in Norwood
is that, of course, I'm on the Mount of Olives. I'm looking
my right. There's downtown, the dome, and there's the old city.
And this guy went like a little parking lot area, beautiful area of Jerusalem.
And the camel driver comes up and there's this huge truck and out the
back of the truck down the ramp comes a camel and I I'm in a
cigarette. I'm in a camel. And he's yelling who want to ride my
camel? Who want to ride my camel? And I said how much is
it? He said twenty bucks? I said twenty bucks. He then said
two for twenty. I said, I get two for twenty. And I'm
a small group of twenty people from Cincinnati, and I say, who wants
to ride the camel? And the back of the crowd, I hear a
familiar voice. I'll do it, and I turn around. There comes my
one, Penny Cunningham from the back of the crowd. I said, Penny,
I call her Fred. I said, Fred, are you serious?
She said absolutely. I've never ridden a camel, and Penny's not the adventurous
type. I didn't think. So she gets on the back of the camel
and he says, you want to let go, And he let go of
the camel, and Penny's riding the camel around a parking lot, heading toward
the amount of olives. At this point, I say, Mohammed, go
get that camel. Get that camel back here. He wasn't yelled at it,
turned around, came back. She got off the camel. People are
dying laughing. I get on the back of the camel and I was looking
good. But nonetheless, assuming you've never ridden a camel, believe me,
they're much better than riding a horse. But you had a great story the
other day about what happened in Montgomery on Montgomery Road in Norwood and also the
uptown rental property shooting also in Springdale. But tell us the story of these
two women who popped the car thinking they were getting off and what happened if
anything. Yeah, well, apparently the car was stolen, according to the
police, somewhere down on Sixth Street downtown. Uh, it got spotted up
by the Norwood Lateral. There's a four fresh is there right on Montgomery Road.
Police apparently spotted it there, that's right near the police station and and
and turned on the light. They started a chase. Police say they quickly
realized that this car was going way too fast to chase up Montgomery Road,
and they they broke the chase off. I'm not exactly sure how far up
they broke it off, but it was still in sight whenever. Apparently the
car didn't slow down, and when it got up the road, we got
a witness. Guy was driving with his three year old daughter in the Brandon
Freyer was driving northbound on the Montgomery Road. He sees his car coming.
It's swerving from one side apparently clipped a rumkey truck, just barely clipped up.
Not a lot of damage to the rumpy, but it set that car
out of control and the car went across all the lanes of traffics from the
lane is supposed to be going southbound, going across the northbound lanes of traffic.
That's a four lane road there and right into the path of Brandon prayer
who's got his the little daughter in the car with him. He has to
avoid by going into the oncoming traffic of southbound to avoid her because she's in
the northbound lane. He unfortunately there was nobody in that lane. The driver
hits the curb on the northbound side, then ricochet's back over towards the VW
dealership right there, smashes into the front stairs a curb on that end,
sends the car sideways and into some poles that are sitting there, and ripped
the car into two separate pieces. They're actually three and four pieces of it
to laying everywhere, but two main separate pieces of this vehicle. Uh.
There it screeches on to fire. Uh to begin with, UM, and
two people uh are are in the vehicle. Uh, these two young ladies.
They're they're able to UM pull them out of the vehicle because it was
concerned or making fire. Uh. Police who were nearby run up to the
scene. They start working on uh this uh with the driver and uh,
but it was to no avails. She passed away. UM. The other
drive. The other person that was in the car, we've not heard.
But the victim, the young lady who who died eighteen years old, or
named Destiny Starks. She was um, you know the corner listed report today
on her. She was just about to graduate from Dawn High School. And
so she had her whole really life in front of her and and this,
you know, decides to run, taking off in this stolen car, and
just a couple of poor choices from an eighteen year old and had cost her
life unfortunately. You know, I'm reading your story that the driver, the
innocent driver here, Brandon Prayer, that's a good last name for him.
He must have been saying one was going north back in other horse, He's
going from the Volkswagen dealership north toward the freshes in the White Castle. And
he said she quote, she was coming at me head on. Man,
I'm not gonna lie. I got my baby in there. Man. I
had to yank in on the upcoming traffic. So he takes his vehicle from
the northbound lang which on the right side, he takes it into the left
hand land in the south. Because she was going close to one hundred miles
an hour. He had to be going. The police would only say high
rate of speed, but in order to chop a car in two with a
telephone pole with a one of a light pole, you have to be gone
really fast. And here's the other thing. Had that pole not stopped her,
that intersect, that's a very er Disney intersection there at the dealership.
You know, Xavier has a bookstore, a place right across the street,
some restaurants in that area, the Bowling alleys right there. I mean,
it's very busy. She may have gone right through that intersection without stopping.
And you know, fortunate for whoever may have been in that intersection, because
if she did that to her car on a pole, you can only imagine
what would happen if she'd hit another vehicle. We do we know that destiny
starts. Who was driving or was a passing? Was what she had?
The passenger or the driver? Do we know? The police have not said,
but the recording from what I've been able to get from witnesses, I
believe that she was the driver and the other the passenger so to speak,
another young female. I assume it's a serious or critical condition. Yeah.
That when the police said at last gave us the update on her, they
said they had severe injuries and they were life threatening injuries to both of them
and the one passed away, and witness has told us that the one the
pass and dur had been they was making some some sounds, so they had
some hope that she may survive. But the other one, they were concerned
about her from the very second that the accident was over. Um, So,
yeah, there's hope for the other one. But according to police,
it's very serious injuries. Nor would police chase the stolen vehicle on Monday afternoon?
It's the story and this race is again the issue whether police should be
chasing vehicles like this, and and you're damned if you do, and damned
if you don't, because you don't know who's in that vehicle. You don't
know what's going on. But on the other hand, to chase vehicles down
Montgomery Road and Monday afternoon, Memorial Day afternoon, that's a that's a serious
situation. Have you discussed with Norwood Police the propriety of chasing vehicles like this?
Yeah, well, you know, I talked to him about that yesterday
and they said that this happened like very shortly. The whole distance is maybe
a mile from that Volkswagen dealership where the crash was to the frishes down on
Montgomery Road, that it's maybe a mile, but they said this chase did
not last long because they quickly realized that it was too dangerous. So I'm
not sure they didn't know exactly where they cut it off, but I did
hear on the audio from that We got the radio traffic, and you could
hear they did cut that trace off because you can hear one of the officers
saying, hey, we're gonna break the chase something like that because too fast.
I'm not sure what point that happened, but police say it was before
the crash and that they could still see the vehicle in the distance, but
it had gotten away, but the car didn't slow down. And like you
said, where the chase ends and where the person driving knows the chase ends.
You know that that's all part of that discussion. I think tough call
either way. Damned if you do, damned if you don't, and we'll
see what happens. At least the responsible parties are the ones that have suffered
most of the injuries because if stealing a Toyota Corolla, I guess in the
downtown area they were joy riding, went up to Norwood, probably got on
the lateral got off there on Montgomery Road and they were picked up as stolen
and away we go, and two lives have been profoundly affected, one dead,
one in serious condition. Another thing I monitored from AFAR was the uptown
rental shooting of Nicholas Kernan. And many times you think allowing a landscape or
someone spreading mulch for uptown rental properties is not in the game in a sense,
I cannot imagine too many individuals spreading mulch in the UC Clifton area have
lots of money in their pocket. And as we sit there this afternoon on
Tuesday, I don't think it's someone's been apprehended, but this is a this
is a big case. But it's a working man who was murdered, shot
in the head at work spreading mulch during the afternoon. Said what do we
know about Nicholas Kernan's murder at this point, Yeah, well, they're still
trying to figure out exactly what happened there and why. Nobody seems to be
able to come up with a reason why someone would want to murder this guy.
He's apparently on the job at work. Everybody had talked to says a
great guy, nicest guy ever wanted to meet. He eats and what he
does. He goes to work and he and he gets his stuff done.
And he's a respected landscaper and he's working for Uptown properties, and they had
nothing but good things to say about him. We talked to family members that
it was the same thing with him. He's got a twin brother. They
would have celebrated her forty fourth birthday together on Monday yesterday. They go to
a dirt track somewhere and have a big time, and they said that they
had all the plans to do that and then suddenly, you know this.
He's shot to death for no apparent reason and a police at this point aren't
speculating. There had been some talk that this may have been a robbery,
but police aren't cooperating that, so nobody really knows what the motive was or
why this person who shot him, though apparently got away. We were told
maybe went up university. It sounds like the police may have video of this
person. They didn't say that, but just talking to them reading between the
lines, they may. They may. They haven't said exactly what they have,
but they're certainly looking for anyone else who has video and thinks they may
have captured something at the time of that murderer to let them know, because
they liked to piece this together and maybe you know, they'll go for a
mile and find where did this guy go and did he you know, go
down this alley and then turn this way? What direction was he going home?
You know, what was he wearing? Did he get something to you
know what that kind of thing was all part of what they're looking at.
Well, the thing is, uh, I think I'm town rental propertiessician a
ten thousand dollars reward. I'm kind of surprised it's been several days now and
the police have not released a video or description of the perpetrator. It's normally,
okay, this is what the guy looks like, this is what he
was wearing, had on gold pants, had a white T shirt or whatever,
and that you get it, get that out quickly immediately, so these
things get cold in a hurry. And I'm wondering why the police haven't released
the video. You know, I asked him about that, and you know,
uh, Captain the Saunders is now in charge up there. He's he's
got it together, you know, he knows what he's doing. They saw
all the lot of these. He wouldn't go into any details. I mean,
he just basically said, look, we're just not to the point where
we can release anything yet, which you know, which that's what he said
to me, So, you know, but that tells me that either they
don't have hardly anything or they are they're not to a point where they can
release it because they've got other investigation type things going on, like maybe they
got an idea who this is, maybe they're tracking it down, or maybe
they have nothing that they can release. You know, it could be one
or the other. But I have to wonder if they don't have a few
leads on this person, and maybe they'll be able to track them down,
and maybe they're just waiting for the right minute to do it, and they
may not want to say anything because maybe you know, I'm just talking in
generalities. You know, sometimes they'll have a person they don't want to let
that person know they got something because they don't want them to ditch something that
they have, you know, or some evidence that they get rid of,
and so that in the past, I've seen them do that, But I
have no idea, you know, they're holding their cards too close at this
point to know. You're looking at a picture of a jigsaw puzzle and you've
got about four pieces, and it's man, anything could happen in those other
pieces. Now. Lastly, you know a story about twelve days ago about
about Michael Sweeney, seventy one years old or well known business leader and also
a car dealer, worked in the car business for more than forty years.
And Sweeney was in some sort of alleged road rage incident. It was in
a Nissan Autumn with two women age forty five and fifty seven. It weren't
shot, but allegedly someone pulled up alongside and shot him twice, once in
the head, once in the neck, and of course Michael Sweeney died immediately
at the scene. At this point, I'm told by police they do not
have video and the case is almost called from the beginning. They don't know
what happened. Anything new on that one. They haven't released anything on that.
That's a bizarre That is a very bizarre story there. And I don't
know, you know, just trying to piece all this thing together. You
know, it came out as road rage, as if there was some kind
of an incident on the highway that you know, created this situation where somebody
just pulled out this gun and started firing, And that may be what happened,
you know, but there may be there may be other ends and maybe,
you know, I don't know what if there was some altercation before they
ever got on the road and this was just somebody catching up with them,
and people that were there, you know, they don't want to be witnessed
to something that else had happened. So there's a lot of loose ends on
that one. And what really happened. I think that's going to be one
of those truth stranger than fiction kind of things, because it just some of
the things just didn't seem to add up. As we were working on that
story the other day, it seemed like there might be more to that or
something else happened by a random road rage. But maybe it is a sant
X graduate in the car business forever and I had a couple of cops tell
me more is coming, and it makes me think maybe there was something else
other than road rage that was going on. But and the absence of facts,
speculation runs rampant, and h we'll see what happens Cincinnatis, like these
other cities. Watch CNN and Fox News this morning it was mayhem all over
the place on beaches and Myrtle Beach, Chicago. Fifty people shot in the
city of Chicago, Huntington Beach, California, Cincinnati. Three shot in a
bar this morning. In Springdale. You have the murder of Nicholas Kernan.
You have what happened to Michael Sweeney, you have what Destiny starks in that
crowd and Brandon Prayer must have been saying a prayer that he's still with us
today. And just you and I've been around a long time. Doesn't it
seem there's more mayhem than ever before? Or are you? Are we reporting
on it more? You know, that's the question, is there more?
Are there more shootings or are we just covering it? We're more aware of
them because they seem to happen, and we get you know, get out.
I know, when I was a kid, you know, we never
thought about mass murders or killers or anything like that, but there were a
lot of them around. There was a there's a very bizarre and interesting story
from back in West Virginia where I'm from, Morgantown. There was a horrific
murder of two college co eds. And there's a great podcast on this thing.
As you google up like WVU co ed murders, there's like an eight
hour podcast. If you like those true crime things, there's none better than
this one. But it details what happened. And they get into the thing
and they're saying when they tried to find out these two young ladies have been
beheaded, it was so bizarre, so grizzly that at the time, when
I was a kid when this happened, that adults talked about it in hushed
tones and I thought it was an urban legend for a while, but it
was not. But I say that to say, when they went to try
and find who may have done this unbelievably gruesome crime, there were so many
people that had been cutting the heads off of victims that they couldn't sort of
throw them all, and it made it really difficult to you know. So
I don't think we have as many of those trying to murder. But I'm
out there my bike around you know, we didn't think there is going on.
They just weren't aware. But it was more prevalent than apparently than it
is now. Wow, I wanted. I've always wanted to see the Old
West. You know, we think about how this is like the wild West.
I wonder if the wild West was as wild is what we're seeing right
now with all these shootings. We may be, you know, like old
boy, I'd be afraid of travel Walton, the old wild West. But
we may be living worse than they had. And I've never seen a comparison
though. All right, Brian Hemrick, once again, death, disease,
destruction, Mayham and be headings everywhere, and once again, thank you for
coming on the Bill Cunningham Show. Thanks again, mister Huntingham. Bran Hemrick,
The Power of five, the best, the rest, stay tune.
I'm going to report on you the last two weeks. What's been going on

Great American After one o'clock today it's Julie Gunlock of the Independent Women's Form about
issues Germaine to uh what is being taught in public schools and also so called
boycott, says a Great American myself. When I was actively in business,
which I'm not now, I did not want to sell chicken wings to Democrats
or Republicans or Independence. I did not care if someone was Catholic, Jew
gen Tyler, otherwise. I wanted to sell chicken wings to everybody. I
did not want to live in as where certain restaurants or certain stores or businesses
catered to a particular faith or political ideology. Things have become so ideological of
late that it's almost impossible to have the Golden Rule in the front of your
mind with all this LGBTQ plus stuff going on. I would say that the
Golden Rule applies now more than ever. Treat everyone as you would want to
be treated, no matter what your sexual orientation might be, whatever it is,
Treated person as you would like to be treated. Before I talk about
the last two weeks, I know the big headline in Los Angeles is about
Clayton Kershaw disagreed with the Dodgers organization's decision to honor the Sisters a perpetual indulgence.
This is a gay rights activist group that performs at certain functions in ways
that is very insulting to Christianity, very insulting to the Catholic faith. And
Kershaw stood up and said, in disagrees with the decision. The Dodgers a
few days ago put together a Christian Faith and Family Day. The veteran Pitchers
said it was in response to the organization's decision to honor the Sisters a perpetual
indulgence. Treat others as you would want to be treated. I can only
imagine if the Dodgers had some right wing racist group, some white supremacists that
wanted to dress up in blackface and march around Dodger Stadium, what the reaction
would have been to that it would never happen. And the Sisters a perpetual
indulgence as a parody group that performs, shall we say, mock crucifixions of
one of their own and highly sexualization of nuns. And I can't imagine how
someone in the Los Angeles area thinks that would be permissible in today's world,
but that off to the side. This all began the last two weeks with
me back on November the eleven, twenty nineteen, and I looked up the
date because of my calendar, and just before the pandemic, I received a
call from doctor Dean Cariocas, the legendary Greek from Christ's Hospital, and asked
me if I was available on that date. I looked at my calendar.
I said, Doc, I'm available. What's going on? He said,
would you do me the honor of introducing and giving me the Jewish Tree of
Life Award at Music Hall? And I said, you're asking me if I'm
available. I said, I'll make myself yes. I would be honored to
anything involving doctor Dean Cariocas and his lovely wife Ann. And then I also
had contact with Larry Shakley and Rohnda Shakley, and so I wanted to find
out more about the Jewish Tree of Life Award. I looked it up,
read some of the participants, some of the recipients. That deals with humanitarian
efforts that's given a by the National a Jewish Fund about peace and security,
and so the last two weeks is Germaine to that. So it mused all
I gave a few remarks, and I happened to meet a guy named Alan
Ben Gurion, who was literally the grandson of the founder of the State of
Israel. Spend some time with him. He said, look, if everyone
wo come to Israel, get a hold of me. I said, you
know, mister Ben Gurion, who's like the George Washington of Israel. I
said, I'd love to do that. I've always thought about going to Israel.
No, my wife, Penelope r would love to do that. He
said, well, here's my contact. So over the next year or two
I stayed in contact contact with Ben Gurian. But the difficulty is a little
thing called the pandemic interfered. Starting in March of twenty twenty. For the
next two years, all hell broke loose, and so I was honored to
give doctor Kariakas the award on behalf of the Jewish National Fund and doctor Ben
Gurion that night, who was the keynote speaker. It was a packed house
and to be associated with that fund was great honor for me. I was
honored that doctor k would ask me to give him anything. I'd do anything
for that guy, because he saved my life, gave me a taver trans
cather aortic valve replacement. And in fact, I'm going to see him in
about another week or ten days for my annual check up. Things went famously
well, so I said doctor Kariakas, of course, I'll give you the
award. And so I put the trip to Israel on the back burner because
of the pandemic and more. About six months ago, I get a call
from the Michael Jordan of travel Companies herb Riisenfeld. Herb Riisenfeld A Provident Travel
is the best there is at what he does. He's done it for fifty
years and beginning with Barney Rapp Travel Agencies, etc. And certainly he's indicated
he's going to continue for another year or two or three. He loves what
he's doing. But he's been to Israel many, many times. So he
calls me out of the blue in January, might have been the first of
February and says, would you would you and Penny want to come to Israel?
And I immediately harkened back to my conversations with Ben Gurion and doctor Kerry
Oucas and Larry and Ronda Shakley. I said, yes, I would love.
Is a trip coming up? He said, yep, We're gonna leave
around the middle of May, around around May fourteenth or fifteenth, come back
May twenty fifth, and give me the parameter. Sent me the parameters.
I talked to Penny, my wife, who, by the ways, on
the board of Mount Saint Mary's Seminary on Beachmont Avenue. She is working on
curriculum there for the priest, been doing that for many years, as you
know. She was chairman of the board and Mountain that her named high school
for a long time. And I said, I'd love it's on my bucket
list. Got two more items on my bucket list? I said yes,
And so I asked around what to do, what not to do, etc.
So time flew by, and a week ago Monday, May fifteenth,
arise rather quickly, and we got things together and flew there. And we
spent two days in Tel Aviv and spent a couple more days in and around
Says area than most of the trail. The four or five days was spending
Jerusalem, and over the two almost eleven days we were there, we visited
Bethlehem, which was unbelievable. What's thoroughly now an Arab area, but nonetheless
they have a church on top of the site of Jesus's birth. Went to,
of course Nazareth, where he had to go to register. There's only
seventy families there. And the key to this trip was number one. The
parameter set up by Herb Reisenfeld was unprecedented because he knows how to get that
done. And with about twenty people from the tri state. And also we
had a guide nicknamed Issy, who was a former Jewish soldier and he's about
sixty years old and he gives these trips. It was a history lesson.
The guy's a teacher, he's an historian, he's like a professor, and
he's spent his life in Israel, born there, raised there, know exactly
what's going on. So we went to the crucifixion site, also the tomb
what Jesus was paneled for about three days, the Holocaust Museum, Massada,
the Dead Sea, the Sea of Galilee. Get on your walking shoes because
those who have such things said, we were walking twelve to fifteen thousand steps
per day. And Israel is as safe as in your mother's arms. It
is sane, especially the Jewish areas no difficulty. The Arab areas of whether
it's Jerusalem or the city like Bethlehem was completely Arab is safe. They know
the treat Western as well, because where the lifeblood economically of what's going on.
But I had a two conversations I want to impart to you. One
was a taxi ride. We got in one taxi one time. We were
in and around the Old City Jerusalem. And by the way, there's a
gate there in which Jews believe the Messiah will come through that gate and Christians
believe the Messiah will come again through that gate. That's the main difference between
Judaism and Christianity. But nonetheless, and things were packed, and a small
group of us wanted to go to mass set up partially by Father Anthony Brouch,
who's the vicar. He runs the seminary and on Beechmont Avenue, a
tremendous facility. He's also the chaplain for Elder High School. And I went
to Mass there. So we had to depart from the group and we had
to get in the cab and it was about a ten minute drive, probably
about a mile and a half. But Jerusalem was packed and stacked because the
flag day, so I'm in the car, get in the car with it.
There was a total of four of us in the cab. And I
like to engage the locals in conversation because I learned, and I'd like to
get the local flavor. So I said, what's your name? It was
a Muslim slash Arab name, and I said that's good. He spoke pretty
good English. And I said, how long you've been here? So?
I was born here? And I said, what do you like about it?
What don't you like about it? He said, well, what I
don't like about it is there's too many Jews. And he knew we were
going to a Catholic church, so he knew we were not Jewish. And
I said to him, well, you're in Jerusalem, You're in Israel.
What do you mean there's too many Jews? He said, it's the way
there's too many Jews. It's the way they treat us. I said,
what do you mean. At this point, my wife's poking me in the
ribs, like shut the hell up, but he continued to answer. He
said, I was born here, my wife was born here, my children
were born here. In Jerusalem. I consider this to be my city.
But he said there's too many Jews. At this point I quit probing him
because I was getting poked in the ribs saying be quiet. I said,
okay, But I sensed and you can sense it, the rub between Arabs
and the Jews. But also one thing that stuck with my mind greatly was
my time spent with the others in the Holocaust Museum. There was not a
dry eye in the house. This is a fabulous facility with the trees of
life out in front. As you enter the Holocaust muse in Jerusalem, partially
put together by Steven Spielberg, who by the way, has Cincinnati connections.
There are trees of life leading up to the pathway of this huge edifice of
the Holocaust Museum, and a huge facility over several acres. And I saw
some of the names of the trees of life, and that calls me to
think back to my giving that award selected by the Jewish National Fund, not
by me. I was simply a vehicle to doctor Dean Karyoucas and his wife
Anne, and it's I think it's impossible to walk through the Holocaust Museum and
see the faces of the children, to see the luggage and the eyeglasses and
the shoes of the Jews who were murdered, to go and to spend time
and look at the gas chambers and speeches by Adolf Hitler and talk about the
fighting in Poland and the ghetto, Crystal Night, etc. It's a three
hour We spent three hours in there. You could have spent three weeks in
that museum. But at some point, in a quiet moment, I ran
into an Israeli soldier and in Israel, which should happen in America? You
have essentially two to four years of military duty after high school to get your
act together. And this one soldier I asked him, I said, what
are your feelings walking through the Holocaust Museum? He said, well, as
a kid, my mom and dad brought me through a couple of times.
But now that I'm wearing the uniform of my nation, my country, it
means even more to me. And then we talked about Masada. Masada is
a hill about fifty miles south of Jerusalem, literally in the desert by the
Dead Sea. And look up Massada m a Sa Da and what happened in
Masada. So Israeli soldiers spend time at the end of their at the end
of their recruitment, at the end of their basic training, spending the last
few hours in the Holocaust Museum. Then they're taken to Masada and they swear
on the Bible an oath of office to the people of Israel and to Israel's
continue existence. The motto is two words, never again, never again.
So the time I spent there was profound. To spend time at the side
of the Crucifixion, to spend time in the tomb of Jesus by Joseph Arimathea,
to spend time in the Sea of Galilee, Jordan River, Baptized,
the Dead Sea, the Mount of Olives, Nazareth, Bethlehem, says Area
Tel Aviv. It's just I'm so happy, so pleased that I went.
And whether Christian, Jew or otherwise, you should, at some point in
your life make your way to where it all began. When we got off
the plane, the first welcome was if you're a Jew, a Muslim,
or a Christian, welcome home, and from the israelis never again. Let's
continue. After one o'clock is Julie Gunlock, Independent Women's Form and more.

Gunlock of the IWF dot org Independent Women's Form, welcome again to the Bill
Cunningham Show. And Julie has so many issues, is so little time.
But first of all that this target department store situation is percolating. I don't
know about you. You're like a mom, You're like a wife. You're
kind of unusual. You're married, you have kids, you work. It's
kind of a difficult position that you're in. I have not been to a
Target store, I think in years or longer. But if I would park
myself in front of a Target store, I'd see probably sixty percent of the
customers or female, a whole bunch of suburban moms. And so now we
discover that Target has given literally millions of dollars to organizations to promote to public
schools the idea that if your child, who's an eight year old might be
transitioning to a different gender one of the other one hundred and seven, that
Target is giving money to groups to help school districts keep that from the parents.
As like a mother and a wife, how do you respond to that?
Oh, it's it's even worse, Billy. They have partnered with an
artist who does satanic artwork. That artist is putting art on children's T shirts,
toddler T shirts. Target is truly evil at this point. It's demonic
what we are seeing here. And you know, I feel like I've been
on your show enough and people know that I do not normally speak this way,
but I am shocked and horrified by what is coming out of Target.
They are I mean, this is truly a hold my beer, he hold
my Budweiser moment here for Target, they again have rolled out in an advance
of what they love, Pride Months, which is apparently the biggest holiday now
or month long holiday in America. Now in my own community of the historic
city of Alexandria, the government here in Alexander is doing nothing for Memorial Day,
literally zero official events. But they have a month long celebration for Pride
Day, including a massive party at Market Square complete with face painting and balloons
and bouncy houses just to attract kids. But nothing on Memorial Day. It's
absolutely sickening. And Target again is doing this Pride rollout, but they're targeting
kids. They have they have women's swimsuits I'm sorry, girls, girls swimsuits
for young girls that include a pocket in the crotch area so that little boys
can tuck there you get it, parse in and try to pass as a
girl. They have t shirt for babies that have transgender messages on them pro
queer messages on them for toddlers and babies the boys clothes are in pink.
It is absolutely insane. And I look, I am with you. I
don't shop at Target anymore. I don't know who, what moral person would
shop at a store that is is pushing the transgender and queer agenda on little
kids. And let me tell you, they don't put it in like a
separate section. You have a folloween in Christmas me, my god, the
Christmas section is practically in the loading dock. Okay, they don't put it,
No, they put it in the front of the store. So you
know, if you're a parent, if you're a Christian parent and you want
to avoid this stuff, you can't. Well you have to walk by it,
you have to, and then you have to answer. I'm not headed
a little one around me in a long time. But I think as a
mother to have a four year old boy say hey, mommy, how come
a crotch pocket is available for girls? And you have to answer questions that
this isn't you know? The cultural war argument I hear at all the time
from liberals from leftists about conservatives. I eat normal people are somehow want to
engage in a in some sort of culture war. No where respond to what
they are doing exactly we're responding. Yeah, they started this culture war by
shoving a rainbow down my throat and my child's throat. Okay, I just
want to go about my business and look, nobody is putting crucifixes, okay
in the front of target. Nobody is shoving religion down anyone's throat, and
and you know, maybe they should. But maybe that's the problem with our
culture these days. Okay, that religion is totally absent, that morality is
totally absent, that there's no standards anymore. I am so fed up with
this, billy, I'm so fed up with having to have conversations with my
kids about this stuff, and I have to go. I have three very
healthy Frankly, my boys thinks this is all very amusing, and they have
now decided to identify as carrists and turnips, so they are having fun with
this. But the idea that I actually have to have these conversations with my
kids is sickening. And now, mercifully I've got slightly older kids. Imagine
dealing with very young kids and having to deal with this. I just want
to go into a target. Well, Frankly, I jones, but I'm
talking hypothetically here and get my milk and toothpaste and leave the store without having
having an hour long conversation with my kid about gender theory. It is absolutely
outrageous. And of course you're right the left and Target is now Oh,
and Target's got an even more ridiculous narrative. But again, you said,
you said it. You were totally right. They're saying, oh, look
at everybody pouncing, look at everybody overreacting, Look at at all the backlash.
No no, no, no no, they started this. But I
will tell you we're going to finish it. We are going to finish it,
and we are not going to shop at Target anymore. We're done.
We're done. Jolly gunlock to me. I believe in the Golden Rule,
which has treat others as you would want to be treated. None of us
want harm calls to any person who is confused about gender dysphoria. I want
no one to be hurt, no one be not to be hired, no
one to be fired because a gender. I want none enough stuff to happen.
It's unfair. The Golden rule applies. But on the other hand,
there's a time and a play for sexuality to be taught, and it's not
to a seventh, eighth, or nine year old. It's not to a
toddler who's confused about her gender. A toddler confused about gender. That is
apostleizing, that is promoting, that is grooming children to accept an alternative lifestyle.
And many of us, maybe not me or you or Tony Bender included,
grew up thinking I was some other gender. I thought I was a
boy. You probably thought you were a girl. But many are confused,
and they're encouraged in that confusion by the mainstream media and corporate America to change
who they are before independent adult decisions can be made about their own bodies.
But Billy, Billy, it's even worse than that. Look, we used
to have something quite common out there called tomboys or little boys who are more
interested in reading or sitting back or playing quietly, or maybe painting or coloring
and coloring books or even playing with us. It used to be that kids
who did this were, you know, they were just a more boyish girl
or more girlish boy, and no foul, no harm, just let him
grow up and figure it out. Right. Now, these teach, and
in many cases it is teachers my god, the teacher, the teaching industry
has become so so strangely activist. I mean, it's it's it just breaks
my heart because I know there are still great teachers out there, but in
the public schools, so many teachers now see themselves as activists first and teachers
next. So many of these these activist teachers will take that boyish girl or
girlish boy and say, well, I don't think you're in you're in the
right body. I don't think you're in the right body. And what we're
what we're doing to these kids, this is very natural to sort of not
necessarily. You know, girls don't all have to like pink. You know,
it used to be that feminists will get all outraged if we said girls
like pink, right like boys boys. Now they're like, oh boy,
if a boy likes pink, he's got to be you know, he's obviously
a girl. Sliding us back to those gender categories that stay hated and fought
against. I'm telling you, Billy, the world is completely upside down.
Oh. An. Issue two is, of course we want to talk about,
and Matt Tayabean a little bit here, but title nine for fifty or
sixty or seventy years. We celebrate at the idea beginning of the early nineteen
seventies that girls and women would be given the same opportunities as boys and men,
generally in the area of athletics and sports, but everything else. Right
now, most of the persons in college are female. Most of the law
students are female. Most of the medical students are female. Most of the
people in jail are male. Most of the inmates are male. Males are
having a difficult time right now. Females are soaring all over the place.
I live in the little state of Ohio. The Chief Justice of Ohio is
a female, and my city is Sincinnati. The police chief is a female.
The three county commissioners are a female. The county prosecutor is a female.
The county corner is a female. You can't find a male with a
search warrant. But nine has succeeded. We now have an equal society,
and women are treated at least in almost all areas of life as well as
men. But no, no, no, Title nine suddenly doesn't appear to
have any traction at all. Now Title nine has turned on its head,
and now Title nine is not about equal care for women and girls. It's
about allowing transsexuals to compete against girls in sports, etc. Where they're gonna
lose. Explain as a woman how that makes you feel well. It's absolutely
sickening. And I will tell you Biden will go down in history as the
most anti female president the United States has ever seen. He is rolling back
all of the protections that women enjoy today. He is putting males in female
prisons, he is allowing males in women's locker rooms, in women's shelters for
goodness sake, he is allowing young men into female bathrooms, schools where Loudon
County and in many other places around the country there have been sexual assaults.
It is absolutely sickening. And of course the feminists are entirely silent on this.
The idea that you have a Supreme Court nominee nominee now a seated justice
who does not know the definition of a woman is so terrifying. And look,
I think there's a lot of women you mentioned. Most of the women
who go to target are these suburban women. I've threw a lot of women
who this hasn't yet, It hasn't affected them, It hasn't affected their daughters,
right, but it's going to happen more, and we're seeing it happen
more. And thank God for women like Riley Gaines, my colleague at IWF,
Riley Gaines, who has been so strong and has faced her own incidents
with violence, who was kept hostage essentially at the University of San Francisco.
It is. It is absolutely terrifying out there, and you better hope.
You better hope women anyone listening that you know, for whatever reason, you
have to go to a shelter, or you are or for gosh sakes,
you have to go to jail for a short time, or if if you
are, or if you're getting dressed in your local gym, you better hope
a man doesn't walk in because according to every basically every institution out there,
yeah, men are allowed now to go into it. They simply have to
say, I identify as a woman. There's my ill sitting wig and my
my extra large skirt, and they can go into those safe spaces, those
formerly safe spaces with you while you are at your most vulnerable. Well,
it's Jolie Gunlock, independent women's form. It's amazing to me that feminist other
than Martino Narratolova. But the feminist ninety nine percent of the feminists say it's
okay. Let a man participate in a women's event. Let men in fitness
La fitness walk into the showers of women and men are and I would think
mothers would be outraged. And maybe if you're a little bit older, is
not a big deal. But if you're a six year old girl and you're
showering in a women's facility and walks a hairy ass man, that's a problem.
And mothers and fathers say, wait a minute. But Joe Biden and
his administration. Cardona, the Secretary of Education, says that's okay with him
because it's all about the other one hundred and six genders and women in the
suburbs should be angry about that. And uh, well, all I can
say, I agree, Wow, what the hell happened? Well, I'll
tell you one thing. It makes it makes that alleged uh claim that Biden
showered with his daughter, It makes it. That makes it makes a lot
more sense. And knowing what's going on now, Look, the bottom line
is this administration does not care about women. Biden does not care about women.
And what's so horrible is the professional athletes out there, I don't know,
like that woman who was held in Russia for a while. Uh,
you know Britney griners, they say nothing, Yes, Britney Griners they say
nothing, right, and you know who they leave it to these young high
school students. Because more and more young high school athletes and college athletes are
coming out and opposing this. It makes me sick that to fight this we
have to rely on these young girls who are so brave and face real backlash
out there on social media and in the mainstream media. And people like professional
like make and Rappone, Yeah, don't come out. In fact, Rigor
Rappone has been critical of people who are against transgenders and women's sports. So
I'm telling you it is. It is absolutely depressing to see that feminists are
nowhere to be found. Professional female athletes nowhere to be found. And that's
again why I say thank goodness or people like Riley Gaines and so many other
of the high school and college level athletes who are speaking out against this.
Now. Lastly about Matt Taiebe. He testified before the Congress about the IRIS
whistle blowers testified about the Hunter Biden, which is one of the greatest scandals
in American political histor. Something unusual happened to Matt Taibi describe what happened to
him A little bit unusual. Yeah, so it would be really interesting.
The IRS produced documents related to their treatment of Taieb. It turned out that
that the IRS opened a case against Tayeb on a Saturday, actually Christmas Eve,
twenty twenty two, at the same time Taiebe was publishing reports on the
Twitter files. This is right before he testified before Congress. And we all
know that while he was testifying in Congress, two IRS agents actually went to
his house. It is chilling. Now. Of course, if Trump had
done this, I mean, Billy, can you imagine it was If Trump
had done this into you know whatever, in two years, it would still
be in the news, right, um. But yeah, this is this
is that the attempt to intimidate and shut up a journalist who's revealing very inconvenient
things to the Biden administration. That it is true. This government has been
weaponized against the American public. And thank God for Jim Jordan and some of
the other Republicans that are investigating. I prayed to God that this beginning in
twenty nineteen when the FBI got possession of the laptop that had the roadmap to
all the Biden family corruption and leish you can say about about the Trumps.
They were in legitimate businesses that had country clubs and hotels and resorts all over
the world. On the other then the Bidens, where were the moneys flowing
into the Biden twelve bank accounts for grandchildren coming from Russia, coming from China,
coming from the Ukraine. And they're not involved in any business other than
influenced pedling. And this used to be the meat and potatoes of the New
York Times Washington Post. They'd go after corruption or wherever the trail led.
But not anymore. They're in the pockets of the Democratic Party. They're not
interested in this kind of corruption. I love when Comer in his investigation found
yet more money going to the Biden administry or I'm sorry to the corrupt Biden
family. Comer looks at the media because the first question he's revealing all of
this shocking stuff about how Biden is potentially corrupt and in the pocket of the
Chinese, and the first question was, well, can we get back to
the Trump family. And I remember Comer He looked stunned. He looked just
shocked, right, and Nancy Mace was standing there with him, and he
looked. They both were like what, and he goes, I am handing
you a poetter. I have done all the research. You just have to
write it up. And it doesn't matter. It doesn't matter. They are
off so in the bag. The American media today are nothing but propagandist.
It is. It is so frightening that there's no check, no chech on
that Biden except for a few brave Republicans in Congress. And my goodness,
I really hope we take the Senate because they need that. They need the
Senate as well to do full investigations into this really scary corruption. Treat others
as you would want to be traded. The old Golden rule applies. And
I can only imagine if the Trump kids had received thirty one million dollars from
communist red Chinese into their bank accounts through nineteen shell lllc's what the New York
Times would have done with that, Or if Donald Trump was accused of sniffing
the hair of little girls and taking showers with his daughter, I can only
imagine what the media would have done with that. But as Joe Biden,
therefore, we'll get ready for what's going to happen in June. Once again,
Jolie Gunlock, thank you for coming on the Bill Cunningham Show and get
ready for another rough ride in the month in June. But I always believe
brighter days lay ahead. And the more we have supermanite moms, get Mamma
bears, get Mamba bears involved in this stuff, and life's going to be
good. But Julie Gunlock, thank you very much. Bill Cunningham, seven
hundred WLW. It's not too late for a deep spring cleaning. On Robert

nine o'clock. Somebody told me you didn't go over there. What you sat

that Jama. Jama. Just give me the bab Jama. One little story.
I have many Oh, okay, you went to the Holy Land in
your back an amount of olives okay, and it overlooks a lot behind me.
You can see things on my Twitter. A guy gave me his name.
It was an Arab name. He's got. This truck pulls up and
out of a ramp and the big truck comes a huge camel. And I
don't mean a cigarette, I mean a camel. I'm looking at this damn
thing and made a horse look small and they're tall well, they're tall and
they're dirty too. I mean there there's air coming out of both ends.
So it sounds like a couple of people around here. That's a great point.
So he walks the camel over to our little twenty crowd, right,
and he says, who want to by camel? Twenty bucks? And then
the first thing I'd like to talk to people, believe it or not,
And I say twenty bucks. He says two. You can ride for twenty.
If I said it, I would have got four. But nonetheless,
in the back of our little group, overlooking the amount, overlooking everything,
right, I hear a familiar voice. I'll do it, and I turn
around. There's the people's judge, work my way through a crowd. I
said what her nickname? Her nick nickname? I call her Fred? I
say, Fred, what are you doing all right? A cammel? I
said what? So I gave the guy the twenty bucks. I said,
I got the camera. Let's go that. The cammell took a minute to
get down. They were up here. They got out, yeah, they
got Yeah, it's not easy. They gotta get down right, get down.
And I put I look at it like a dog and and moves his
hand down and the thing goes down the reins and pulls it. Okay,
you want to be nice to this Fido. You don't want to irinate this
thing off. Correct it bites you. You got a problem, some big
old teeth. She gets up on the camel. I take a picture.
He then says, here the rains. See if you can control him.
She takes the reins. Said this camel had away a couple of thousand pounds
and starts gallivanting around the parking lot where the buses were. I said,
Fred, Fred, where are you going? Fred? She did, she
wrote it and brought it back. I'm going I would have lost money on
that bet because I would have figured she was nowhere near or that camel.
And if she says I'm leaving you, if you get on it, well
you got on it, I said, harb risen Feld You he won't know
what I said. Well, look, if you get on it, I'm
getting on it. So I jumped up on the camel, rode the thing
a little bit, brought it back, and I gave the big wave high
you see on my Twitter account right, And did you feel a little bit
like Lawrence of Arabia as I did? I thought I was freeing somebody from
bondage. Okay, so at some point he said, who necked? Who
necked? Who necks nobody? Nobody moved. Jeez, I said, you
gotta be kidding me. You would the first lady were guinea pigs? Yes,
do you have photo evidence of her on the campbell? All right,
I'll tell you what I'm gonna do. Over her objections. Oh, she
has said more than once, do not do this, don't you well,
no way mean, we we've had a let's just leave it alone. Let's
just leave it alone. Don't don't tweet out their picture. I don't want
no, no, no, no, no, she said, don't you
dare? We had enough problem my picture. We got enough problems get my
picture out there. Because she's like a serious person. Right, let's just
let it go because I don't want her mad at me. I blame you
quickly, thank you, but saying before we go any further, there's two

thought we called Nick Crawl and let him know. But that's okay, Well,
let it go. I'm not calling nobody. Yes, we're not gonna
call anybody. Everybody calls us. Do they know I'm not taking them?
Nobody calls us. We gotta call them because they have good sense and we
don't. Okay, that's the problem there, Okay, all right, But
once again, Carson Dwyer and Drew Evans sant X boys senior in a freshman
one and you got you got a Kentucky and girls softball teams playing locally Willie
in the state tournament baseball. You got all kinds of teams around the area
playing Indiana. Kentucky is all into postseason. So good luck to everybody.
See what happens. So it's added in sports. Yes, Massada, seventy
miles south of Jerusalem, the desert right next to the Dead Sea, as
a hill about a thousand feet tall, where one thousand Jewish Zealots would not
admit defeat. Right at that point, Jerusalem was being obliterated by the Roman
army and take you know, to take the temple down to nothing. So
they said, that's it. So a thousand of the Zealots with their wives
and children went to Massada, seventy miles south of Jerusalem. There was a
small contingent of Roman soldiers there they quickly overwhelmed. It was the winter home
of King Herod. When he got word that the Jewish Zealots had taken Masada,
he said, you know, well, whatever it takes, however long
it takes, bring me their heads. I want them all dead. So
the Jewish slaves, there were thousands of years of Jewish slavery, built under
the orders of the Romans, under threat of death and worse, a ramp
that took months to build. Okay, they build a wall and ramparts around
the whole hill, which was a thousand feet up in the air so that
they could presiege that capital. The night before the Romans arriving, the leader
the Jews said, tonight we are free men. Tonight our swords are available.
Tomorrow our children children will be worshiping idols and raised by Romans. Our
wives will become prostitutes to the Roman army, and we will be killed or
crucified or become slaves. But tonight we are free men making free decisions.
They pick ten of the group to kill one hundred each. Because as Jews
and Christians who cannot commit suicide, the ten kill one hundred each. There
are now ten left. They draw lots. One is picked out of the
lot to kill, the other nine is even before the Romans got there.
They were coming there the next day, and they said, today we are
free men. Rather than become slaves and victims, they took the honorable way
out Masada. When I went to the Holocaust Museum and then to Massada,
the two words ring in my ear forever never again, and one saying in
the Holocaust Museum segment, yes, six million Jews were not killed in the
Holocaust. There was a Jewish man, a Jewish woman, and a Jewish
child killed six million times never again segment Get me out of a Stewgs report,
Willie on your triumphant returned back from the Holy Land, and Congressman bread
windstrip is next. We leave you with the immortal words of the stew Report.

a great American and of course doctor Congress who glad Winster for a soldier.
It's not about twenty five years in the military. Is a doctor.
He went to a walk, he said, choose me. He went.
He also is on the Intelligence Committee, and also he's chair of the subcommittee
on the COVID nineteen pandemic and more. And congressmend Doctor brad Winstrip, Welcome
again to the Bill Cunningham Show. And first of all, it appears the
vote on this budget raising the dead limit and also cutting some of the budget
and set for Wednesday or Thursday, whenever that three days might go by,
and then the voting and then the US Senate. I think they're going to
meet on Friday. From what you know now, are you inclined to vote
for the deal or against the deal? Or don't you know enough information to
vote YEA or nay at this point? Well just send Based on what I
do know, at this point, I'm inclined to vote for it. The
vote will probably be sometime late Wednesday. We want to do the full seventy
two hours. The bill has to go to rules and we have to get
it approved and then we'll all take a look at it. And I have
to be honest, I think that we got a lot of things I didn't
necessarily expect we get because at least in the House representatives, the Democrats were
just crying foul on every bit of it, and so I didn't know where
the President would be on all that. The Senate really hasn't said anything,
and had they haven't done anything. They never did put together a bill.
So as I look at this, you know, we're gonna spend less,
and that's what we have to start talking about. And if we can keep
the House and get the Senate in the next election and hopefully the White House,
we can do an even better job of cutting out wasteful spending that we
don't need. You know, part of this is we're trying to lift people
out of poverty. I mean, what is wrong with asking people to go
to work? And it's very narrow. I mean it's basically, people who
are able bodied and have no disabilities and no children and no other obligations that
they have to keep in their life, why can't they be going to work,
especially at a time when there are so many jobs available, and we're
gonna look to clawback tens of billions of money that we're spent on COVID that
haven't been spent. So the other thing is just some of the administrative types
of things that we were able to get in this As I'm seeing some of
the bits and pieces of it that we're going to reign in some of the
executive overreach. You know, between the agencies and the presidents themselves, they're
running the country far more than was ever intended by our founders and the House
of Representatives once our saying things right now, we're going to cut through some
red tape to streamline, for example, energy permits and infrastructure projects. And
let's face it right now, the longer we wait on projects with inflation the
way it is, the more it's going to cost. So I'm not saying
that we don't adhere to standards, but let's move things along as best we
can. And we're slashing the funding for Biden's new IRS agents in this and
we're going to restart the student loan repayments. They don't just get off the
hook. And we're going to make Congress work again. And if we were
to go to a continuing resolution, that's going to be a capped out and
it's going to be less than what we were spending before. So we also
want to make sure that our seniors and veterans, so security, medicare,
they're all protected. So you know, as this was going on, we
never had anything in there that was going to harm any of those groups.
You had the Democrats in the House anyway, kept saying that's what we were
doing. And I'm afraid half of America believes those things. So, you
know, and we're blocking any demands for new taxes. You know, that's
that's the agreement right now. So we're gonna pay our bills and we're going
to start to do things better. And I have to say that I'm pretty
impressed by what is in it. We'll see what's not in it and also
what I maybe don't know about yet and make sure we do our due diligence.
But this is this is a great start, rather than just what the
President wanted at the beginning was for us to just pay our bills and not
change anything. Congressman, it's amazing that the media does not cover it that
way. In fact, to one of the morning talk shows, I saw
this mother of three talk about how she can afford to go to work because
she has three children under the age of six. Of course, one might
ask where the fathers of those three children under the age of six? But
nonetheless, isn't it fair to say that that would not apply to a mother
who has three children and she said, I don't know where my next mail
is going to come from. That was media coverage that had no sense to
reality. Well, you know, it's just really challenging these days. You
know, the family dynamic has eroded in so many ways, and people have
gotten used to not working and being able to get by on that, And
some of our programs really need revamping because in many ways we punish people who
do go to work. Because I've met a lot of single moms, for
example, that are working and trying to make it on their own, but
when they start making too much, the system that we have today penalizes them
and their kids lose their healthcare. We give we give away too much,
and it's out there for the taking if we get people in the right place
and don't incentivize staying at home. Secondly, Veterans Day is a great day,
but Memorial Day celebrates one point two million men and women who have given
the autumn sacrifice. And you served in a rock sadly you doubt as a
doctor with individuals that didn't make it. What are your thoughts on Memorial Day
and how is not properly celebrated by most of the American people. Well,
I think you summed up there, and that's very disheartening to somebody who has
served, and I would say even more so Bill for the families that have
lost someone throughout history. For us, it's a sacred days, There's no
doubt about it. And you walk through Arlington and you see all that have
given their lives just there, and they're scattered throughout the country, and they've
given so much. You know. I looked at Memorial Day in a special
way because I came home from Iraq on Memorial Day weekend, and I got
home and I was able to be out on a boat and the wind blowing
through my hair, and I never appreciated freedom as much as I did then.
I lived a year in a prison cell in Iraq, basically because we
were stationed at Abu Grab Prison. So the freedom meant everything to me.
But you did see the very surreal thing. I'm knowing where you just were,
say a week before, and everyone else is going about their business,
but in a way, it's a beautiful thing because that means you're doing your
job. That means you're doing a job that keep people safe and keep them
comfortable. But I want to make sure that those that have never felt wearing
the army armor or the feeling of a loss of a family member, I
want them to understand how just how precious this is and what it takes to
get it. Stepping back on our soil was was unbelievable. You know.
I think if Sam Johnson, who served seven years in Hanoi, Hilton,
and he was a member of Congress, and he had been shot down over
Vietnam, and he shares the etchings in the wall in one of the solitary
confinement that says freedom has a taste to it, that those who fight and
almost die for it, that the protective will never know. I mean,
that just really says it all. The protective never really know what it takes
to keep us laughing. And it never have I felt more moved than what
President Lincoln wrote to the mother who lost five children. He said, I
pray that our heavenly father may assuage the anguish of your bereavement and leave you
only the cherished memory of the loved and loss and the solemn pride that must
be yours to have laid so costly a sacrifice on the altar of freedom.
There's nothing more beautiful than that. And I hope that more and more people
can really understand what takes because I think in America today there's too many that
take our freedom for granted. And when you start to see it slipping away,
I hope people start to realize the sacrifice it was made, and that
we can't let it slip away. No. I mean, we still have
fights. What's happening in Afghanistan, and you've a rated on that in the
past. How in the world we left Afghanistan that way? How in the
world in Iraq when you sacrifice so much and something like seven thousand men and
women sacrifice ultimately in Iraq, it was an awful circumstance and we left,
and now certain groups controlled by the Iranians control Iraq. It's not a participatory
democracy. I can recall having on Bush forty three, like in twenty twenty
five, twenty oh six, when he sat on the air with me that
we're going to find out in about ten or fifteen years if the If Freedom's
flag is flying over the capital of Iraq, Baghdad, then it would have
been a successful mission. And if not, then it will not be a
successful mission. And history will be unkind to my decision. And at this
point here we are what twenty three about eighteen years later, and I look
at a rock, I look at what's happening there. I look at Iran
close to getting a nuclear weapon because of what the current administration has done there,
and a look at Afghanistan when even the Secretary of Defense Austin and Chairman
of the Joint Chiefs of Staff have said, it's not their recommendation that we
got out the way we got out. Every time we get into one of
these wars, the soldier pays all the prices and the politician skate free.
We pray together that's not the case in the future. And the letter to
Missus Bigsby by Abraham Lincoln is one of the greatest recitations of sacrifice one can
ever imagine. And I would ask you, Soldier Congressman brad Winstrip, was
your service in a Rock worth it? Well? I believe so. What
most people don't know is that we liberated twenty six million people from a terrible
dictator amongst other things. Was everything done right with that? That we can
discuss over and over again, But I will tell you about our military traditionally
and the flag that we carry you. Throughout our history, the evildoers have
feared that flag and those in need have prayed for her arrival. And we
did a lot of that in Iraq. And I mean, just look at
the fact that I was stationed in the Abugrab prison and our job was to
take care of our troops, but also to take care of the enemy.
No more biblical mission. We want over the hearts and minds of a lot
of people. I mean, I would argue that it's a better place today
than it was under Saddam hus saying. And I also please when I look
at how many of those that worked with US iraqis. In particular, I
signed for two of them, one as a cardiologist at Ohio State and a
US citizen now the others doing family practice medicine in Texas and a US citizen.
So you know, we made a lot of changes in a lot of
people's lives. That comes to the great cost, there's no doubt about it.
But I think for that time we made our world a safer place,
and the same with the Afghanistan. But we can look back and say how
we could do things better, but certainly don't fault the service member who went
out there in sacrifice, and especially those that gave their lives. Congressman,
thank you for your service. Page two. As the Durham Report came out
about ten twelve days ago, and you're on the Intelligence Committee, You've had
to sit there and listen to Adam Schiff and many others and also Nancy Pelosi
lie, lie and lie about what happened with Trump and with the Russian collusion
delusion? Didn't the Durham Report demonstrate that the FBI was actively involved in perpetuating
the Russia Gate hopes and that Barack Obama President himself in the Oval Office,
convened the meeting at which he concocted a scheme to assist the candidacy of Hillary
Clinton and to hurt Donald Trump. Well as I understand it, as far
as what Barack Obama knew, as he knew that the Clinton campaign was planning
a scandal, and they certainly didn't do anything to prevent it from happening that
I know of. But what we did know as we looked into this,
and I went into the investigation with open eyes that if Donald Trump did something
wrong, then we need to face up to it. But the fact of
the matter was that it was Hillary Clinton and the Democrats who hired law firm
Perkins Cooe that hired Fusion GPS that hired Christopher Steele, the former British agent
to work with Russians. So who's colluding with Russians but Christopher Steele to create
this fake docio that launched three years of misery on the American people and cost
us millions of dollars and a lot of innocent people were heard through this process
and the FBI participated in this. Was a woman with Fusion GPS, the
opposition research firm that hired Christopher Steele, Ellie, and Ellie or her husband
worked at the FBI. They were able to get this story out in the
media and the FBI ran with it, and the Inspector General came back and
talked about seventeen different violations that the FBI committed during the process. And Bill,
we sat in those hearings and we would hear person after person come in
and say, I really don't have any evidence that he truly coluded with Russia.
But some of these same officials that came in and said that would go
out on TV and insinuate and say things like just some things don't look right.
And then Adam Schiff would walk right out in the middle of all this
and say, I have clear evidence what they have put America through for a
political scandal, it's believable. And I would say most of the country has
no idea. And there are Democrats sitting in Congress today that have no idea,
and I don't think they are going to bother to read the Durham report
as well, which is really a sad time for us. We've got to
clean this up, and we are working on that. We are actually,
a by partisan fashion, really working on changing the way things are at the
FBI and the fact that they think they have ultimate authority over everyone, they
have to answer to someone, and that's the United States Congress three hundred and
six page report by John Durham. One of the text messages from twenty sixteen,
when Lisa Paige, FBI agent asks her lover Peter Stroke quote He's not
going to become president right right, And Peter Stroke says no, no,
no, he's not, will stop it, quote unquote. So you have
the top of the FBI texting each other talking about stopping Donald Trump from becoming
the president. You have the involvement of not just Hillary Clinton, and not
just Kevin Kleinsmith and not just Peter Stroke, but you have Bruck Obama himself
being informed about the future crimes to be committed by Hillary Clinton and concocting a
scheme to blame Donald Trump for behavior he was not engaged in. Then you
have numerous FBI agents at the top lying in affidavits defies a court to a
legal warrants. Now who's paid the price for any of that. Nobody?
And that's the problem. And what I have said now for the last several
years, if you look at the military as a government entity, we have
the uniform Code of Military Justice, and unethical behavior is unlawful in the military,
it is written down unlawful. There punitive measures when you violate the ethics.
Well, not in our agencies. And that's the problem. So it
becomes more of a thing like oh yeah, what's that wrong? Oh well,
okay, I'll just get fired and collect my pension and then go off
and work for CNN. This is wrong and that's why I'm the Intelligence Committee,
especially the legal minds in our Intelligence Committee. Darren Lehood is leading the
way in many ways for the reforms, and we have got to put in
punitive measures, not just change the dynamics of you know, how you go
about it or something like that. There have to be measures that when you
do this, in when you violate someone's rights because you didn't adhere to the
rules of the court, then there must be some punishment, not just well,
we'll see you later and you know, go off and make even more
money than you were making. Well, I set up before congressmen, I'll
say it again, and if the if Clinton, Obama, Biden, et
cetera. New in September October of twenty sixteen, the Trump was going to
win, he would not have been permitted to win. They would have done
something to stop it. And you have the statements of Peter stroke and text
messages to his lover will stop it. We got to run. But once
again, you did not have to go to a rock and become a medical
doctor there and work on the troops and also the terrorists. You did not
have to step forward for those twenty five years, and I want to thank
you for your service, Congressman brad winstrip and please stayed true to the principles.
I'm sure you will, but I'm I'm waiting for the day when when
those who said they had they had the proof, they had the proof of
the Russian collusion delusion will be held to account. And I'm talking about a
certain Congressman from California and I'm talking about Nancy Pelosi. But we gotta run
once again. Carr's from brad Winstrop. Thank you for coming on the Bill
Cunningham Show, and thank you for your service. God bless Bill. Thank
you, God bless America. Let's continue with more Bill Cunningham with you every

Chuck McDowell, CEO and founder of Wesley Financial Group. Ten years ago,
I started helping folks cancel or time share, and in the process started what's
now called the time share cancelation industry. Timeshersey, the only thing that you
can buy that you can't tell me how much it's going to cost or when
it's going to end. When you buy a time share, you give them
a blank check to fill out any amount they want for annual maintenance and assessment
fees. The crazy thing is this never ends. Even when you die.
Your family's now going to be stuck with this burden. Stop the insanity today.

same fair price to everyone every day. We chose to have transparent pricing and
not apply pressure to close a sale. Over thirty years later, we're proud
to say that we still have never had a sale. The other said it

yeah, part of something else? All right? Somebody ed here in
Willie a Arabia's back I stand against no one. I make no telephone calls
and I do nothing. That's it the golden temporarily and saying I am tempor
early in saying no question. Look at you, You're rejuvenated. Yeah,
I feel good. I feel like James Brown. I feel good, feel
good, I feel good. Have you seen me on the camel? Oh?
Yes, because you sent me the text at like four thirty in the
morning. I thought it was thanks for waiting everybody up. Yeah, look
at there? Who the hell is this is an emergency? Is somebody dead?
Mike McConnell, Well Willie of Arabia? And then did you hear the
story about who first got on the camel? Was it the trumps? Here
we are and the amount of olive here? It is overlooking Jerusalem, the
dome, got the old city, you got the crucifixion side, you got
it all off to the left. It's a popular area. A guy pulls
up a large truck, and about a hundred yards away we're looking, pulls
up a ramp. All of a sudden, a large camel comes out of
the back of the way. They're bigger than a bigger than I don't know.
I didn't think they were this big. They're big, so he kind
of looks at us, were like americanos. Twenty people from Cincinnati comes over
who want to ride by camel, want to ride by camel. And I'm
saying, how much is it? He said twenty bucks? I said for
how many? He said two? Two? I said, I gave him
twenty if. I turned to our group and I say, who wants to
go first? And the back of the group, I hear a familiar voice.
I'll do it. I'm going what what Penny? Aka? I call
her? I call her Fred? I said, Fred, you're riding the
campbell. Absolutely, I'm glad. You gotta be kidding me. It gets
the camera. You gotta get the cammebel just doesn't they do? They do
something and get up and sounds like this show every other day. So yeah,
the camel driver said, here are the reins. The campbell starts rolling
away. I said, Penny, bring her back, bring her back.
So she came back, and of course I had ten bucks. I said
somebody, I said, herb rising fell get on to Canda. I'm not
getting on and he was passing gas, not herb, I mean the camera,
the camel, and he was spitting due. So I got on the
camel. I rode. He said, here are the reins. I'm like
like a horse. You pull the rein to the right and the right.
Who played Lawrence of Arabia that movie, Peter O'Toole? Yeah, did you
feel like him? No? I looked. I'll share with you the picture
of Penny on a camel. I can see the picture of Penny on a
camel. Noo, we're gonna put that on. But no, no,
no, tell me that problems part was, Yeah, you can easily say
the crucifixion site and or the tomb Jose Arimathea when he put the balls powerful.
Do you actually feel like the presence like this is the real burial state
of Jesus Christ. We had the right guy, a guy named Ike who
was a like a college professor about ancient history. This is a majority of
viewpoint. It was here those minority of viewpunk could be over there. All
the research indicates. So you walk in about a four foot high about in
the wall and this huge hill you walk in and that's the that's they say
it is the burial side of Jesus and in those days and the stone is
out in front of they showed us the stone. I said, well,
where's the stone and it was about a six inch track, and Joseph put
the stone circulars so we could every now what happened. After a year,
they go into the tomb and the body's been wrapped and scented, and then
the unwrapped the bone and the muscles and everything's gone but the bones. They
cracked the bones, put them in the ossuaries. Then your family's there on
the wall. They had several ostuaries there and you feel like, okay,
well this is it. And that was The Holocaust Museum was emotional because you
can't go through there with a dry eye. Look at what happened to those
people. And then you go to Masada, the hill seventy miles south of
Jerusalem, where these Zealots, the Jewish warriors, made their last stand before
they were obliterated, and you would have on this. I thought of you
when this speech was given. I said, Rocky would love this. Okay.
Massanda's down by the Dead Sea. As you know, it's one hundred
and five degrees I mean hot. This is at like at ten o'clock in
the morning. So we go up on a cable car and the leader of
the Jews who were obliterated in Jerusalem by the Roman emperor, that headed up
to hear with the Jews. Is that kill them all, take down the
synagogue, the temple's nothing. Disperse him but a thousand people like you.
Took your wife and children to Massada. That was the winter home of the
emperor, fabulous palace, et cetera, on top of this hill. One
way in, one way out. So the Jews said, we're saying they
will leave us. No, they didn't leave alone. When the Emperor found
out that these Zealots at last place, it's like the Rockies home and harrison,
they said, okay, vast him out, obliterate them. Brought in
twenty five thousand slaves who were Jews Jewish slaves, fifteen thousand soldiers. They
spent about a half a year building ramp to go up to the mountaintop.
And they're watching this over many months, and at the end it was obvious
they're all we're going to be killed. So the leader, I thought of
you, Rocky, gave a speech. He put a sword in his right
hand to a thousand men, women and children and said, today we are
free men. Today our swords are ours. Tomorrow our children will be raised
by the Romans to worship Zealots, to worship idols. Our women will become
prostitutes to the Roman army. He said, we will be crucified and murdered
tonight. We are freemen. They picked ten of their number, ten people
like you to kill kill biblical version, kill one hundred each. They killed
one hundred of men, women and children. At the end they were ten.
They drew lots again. One of the ten was chosen to kill the
other nine and the tenth guy jumped off the mountain. So the next morning,
so they killed a bunch of Romans and they killed they're all Jews.
It was suicide, homicide. Not one Roman had gone at the top,
but they were coming the next day. Today we're free men. We decide
what happens, not them. And they allowed all the food and the water
to remain, so the Romans knew that they weren't leave. It. Didn't
do that because they were hungry. But they'd rather than become slaves of Rome.
They said, to hell with it. I'm not My wife's not going
to be a prostitute. My three boys are not going to be Roman slaves.
No we decide tonight. What happens is that kind of like Notre Dame
valie, they will not lose the Marshall gain. By the way, I
talk with Marcus Freeman while you were gone, did you mention my idea about
Notre Dame getting to the MAC. Yeah, we would discuss that a little
bit. He you know, he sounds like it went over real big.
He is his opinion that Notre Dame stay an independent powerhouse for another year.
Then then well, then with the reassess. But don't say bollong more in
the MAC than maybe the Big ten based upon the recent history. By the
way, Notre Dame lacrosse just won the national title, So that's a snap.
Columbia twenty and here goes the final countdown as marcield two and one,
there is, it's the finals. Marshall twenty six, number eight Notre Dame.
Time. Let's repeat that one more time here twenty six to twenty one.

the great American holding on tight. Yes, don't let her go. Things
just started galloping, gallops, the right working race camels. This thing he
didn't have lost. Look at that, he didn't have here. Holder on
there not exactly most humane conditions over there for the animals. But she said,
don't put that out. Don't let anybody see that. Now I'm thinking
about putting it on Twitter. What would happen? Well, we already put
your naked body on Twitter and on the website. We've had enough for us
calm down. That was like this one. A lot of the women behind
there. That's that's right there. That's the Golden gl for the Muslims.
About that, and that's right where the old city is and the crucifixion sites
outside the walls. But there's the people's judge on a camel. They actually
have the crucifixion site too. Yeah, the health Yeah, it's you're you're
for me to the DJ's office. There it is. And we had a
historian tell us how many were crucified, how they were crucified, how they
made made sure that the legs were broken so it would collapse, and Jesus
and the and then he came down here. When you're crucified, you die
by his asphyxiation. You can't can't, you can't breathe, so you've got
to Eventually your arms tire out. And when they break your femer, when
they break that thing, you can't you can't pull up. So how do
the Jewish people view and when you're over there in your experience, how they
view Jesus and all that. Oh, they they think of as a prophet,
a wise person or what in the gates of the Old city. There's
a saying in uh in Hebrew that says the Messiah will come, and Christianity
says the Messiah will come again. That's the difference. And so there's the
gate. And I said, I want to go in that gate. Man.
I'm want to be like you know, Louis Armstrong when the Saints come
marching in. I want to be in that gate. J say he will
come, and we say he will come again again. There's the difference and
not when you get older you gotta go take them. There's not a mean

I said, uh, tell me, so tell me about how do
you like? I said, I'm married, my wife, I got for
six kids. They're all born here. And I said, uh, what
do you like about about Jerusalem and Israel? He said, uh, the
climate is pretty good. I said, what don't you like? He said,
too many Jews? I said, too many Jews. I said,
you're an Israeli, you're an Israel And at this point as well, why
do you say that? He said, because they don't treat us right.
We don't get enough. I said, why don't you leave? At this
point, Penny's poking me. Shut the hell up, this guy. You're
gonna keeping any We're gonna go with spawn revolution said, this guy is gonna
really heat the revolutionary man. So too many Jews. I thought, well,
you don't belong in Israel if you got too many Jews. And then
the other powerful part was the IDF forces. They they go through six weeks
of basic training and everyone you leave high school, you don't go to college.
Everyone right, every person two to four years. Woman or in the
other just before you get sworn in, you go to the Holocaust Museum and

say, here's what we're here's why we're dors, here's what we're fighting for.
And you got the spectrum. And then you go to Massada. We
put your hand on the Bible. It's for allegiance. You go to Massada,
you go to the Holocaust Museum. That's pretty good stuff. That's good
stuff. Segment is out it in sports. Yes, go Rids, get
