It's going to happen tomorrow, but we're predicting in fifty years with the climate's
going to be that's a different issue completely, But nonetheless, Sharon Coolidge is
the great City Hall reporter at the Cincinnati Inchoir, joining us now to talk
about the one point six billion, also the I seventy five redesign, also
the deck over the top of Fort Washington Way, also the streetcar and more.
Sharon Coolidge, welcome again to the Bill Cunningham Show. And first of
all, tell the American people about the one point six billion, the process
that UBS was handling, is going to handle the money when the money comes
in, when it goes out, all related matters. Give me a full
report. Well, you know, we're on the tail end of the sale
of the Cincinnati Southern Railway. Voters voted to sell the railway in the very
next step is the railroad board that oversees the railway is now creating this trust
and who's going to manage the trust? And so you know, it's been
several meetings so far this year. Everything wait for it, has been done
in public related to this very long meetings to choose who's going to manage the
Trust Fund, seventeen firms Internet, you know the one that was chosen actually
international. I mean, these from the biggest firms out there that there are
to the tiniest firms, you know. Seventeen of them, you know,
replied to the RFP and ended up getting narrowed to five, two of them
local FEG and Fifth third Bank. But yesterday, so last week they did
in the most transparent way, back to back, five interviews, five firms,
forty five minutes. You know, they these companies flew people in teams
of like four or five six seven people came in and you know, was
relliant, gave a presentation, answered questions. Everyone was free to watch.
And so then yesterday they met again and they had a public discussion about who
they liked best and the pros and cons of you know what they were all
thinking, and they selected UBS, I think probably the largest firm that replied,
and they really had what they were looking for. You know, when
I look at Fifth third Bank, I thought fit third Bank would have the
inside track because of a local connection plus dominating Fountain Square. We was there
some discussion about sticking with a hometown. UBS is a large multinational, multi
hundreds of billions of dollars under management. I would have thought fit Third Bank
had the inside track. Do you have some insight, sharing Coolidge, as
to why that didn't happen? You know, I really did think that they
were going to go with a local firm, especially because it's the very first
meeting after the sale was on January eighth. There was a lot of talk
about really having a local firm. And that's how the two local selections got
on the shortlist because they talked about and I actually I understood kind of some
of the thinking that they were talking about. They need. There's going to
be a lot of questions and this isn't going to be like a pension fund
where no one really is going to not going to be private. First of
all, there's going to be so much scrutiny on this fund. And it's
not even going to be like a pension fund, which is all public.
But we tend, you know, there, unless they're in crisis, we
don't really look. Because this is going to be a payment to the city
budget every year going forward, it's going to be constant scrutiny on the amount
of money. And so the Railroad Board itself is like we have to oversee
this fund. They realize that they're in the spotlight and how important this trust
is and they're like, at any moment if there's a problem or they need
to change something. They really said they wanted that, you know, close
knit relationship that's not something like quarterly reported. Here's how we invested your money,
because they're going to have questions, especially at the beginning as this kind
of all gets off the ground, and they really restressing the importance of having
you know, just local down I mean Charlie Luke and I think he put
it this way for mayors on the board, you know who's you know,
I really want to be able to know whose neck I'm going to strangle.
And everyone kind of laughed and stuff, and you know, it was very
charliism to say that. So I was going into the interviews, I was
like, it seems like a local firm really had a leg up. But
then once you heard the presentations from the local from all the five, you
know, it's more than that. And some of these places had offices here,
and how hands on there are they going to be, and a lot
went into it, like the decision was really made on what are the returns
going to be what are your fees for managing this money? What is the
relationship with us going to look like? What is you know, a lot
of diversity discussion on how you know your firm does all of that. That
was very important to voters and it became a big deal. Uh when it
came time to pay, like does this one point six billion dollars of public
money? Is it? You know? Also supporting minority communities and city officials.
So that was important to them, and the board said that was important
to them. So really, yeah, Pete Whitties, Pete sends me stuff
all the time about what a disaster this is going to be. It's awful.
I said, look, it's over with, let's move on. I
want to bet with him at Price Hill Chili. I said it would pass.
He said it wouldn't. Of course, the money was spent all on
one side of the table, now on the other side, still didn't pass
by a wide margin. I guess the angst might be over the street car
that many people believe, like Tony Bender, this money is going to be
used to take the street car. It's going to go up to hill,
up to Clift and up to hill, all around and back again, you
have great ridership when there's no fees being charged. It's free, so therefore
people are going to use it. Is there a concern by some that this
is the Campbell's nose under the tent to expand the street which is free,
which is costing a fortune, is not going to happen. Get out your
crystal ball. I want to talk about the deck over Fort Washington Way I
seventy five redesign, and then the streetcar streetcar. First of all, can
some of this money be used for the streetcar to extend it at a great
cost with little or no benefits. There's a short answer and a long answer.
Give me a shorthort answer. Surely no, But that's not how the
city budget works. This money cannot directly be used to I mean, I
guess it could, but it's really not going to be. It's really to
fix current infrastructure. I would argue that taking the streetcar anywhere would be new
infrastructure. You're building something new. So but I think it's very important to
note the city put out a spending plan and let's say, okay, that's
loose at best. It's just, you know, this is where we think
we should spend the money, you know, over the next ten years.
But the key to that memo was one line, which is, we can
only guarantee like it's going to free up all of this money. So the
city used to put thirty three million dollars into like the capital budget, and
now this money is going to replace all of that. So it's like swapping
out money. So of the old money the city is putting. These are
kind of rough numbers. I forget exactly what they are off the top of
my head. We're roughly this. The city only said we're going to keep
putting the three million dollars into the capital budget and then all of the other
money. We're going to have all of this windfall from the railroad, and
so they'll still be able to keep doing all these things and do all the
things they promised with that money. It's going to free up like thirty million
dollars in the city budget that used to go to capital projects. And this
council, elected by the people, can then use that money on what they
would like to, you know, take public votes and make some decisions and
how to spend it in everything. And so that's a lot of money.
This is can do big things that money can then be used to do big
things. Is that streetcar expansion there certainly talk about it among council members.
Well, I think the best use of the money for my two cents worth
is the deck over Fort Washington Way. I can recall like twenty or twenty
five years ago that Chas Lucan the first put in a provision to handle the
foundation of the future deck. So if Fort Washington Way will be covered,
that would reclaim I would think many dozens of acres of prime real estate for
parks of development. What about the deck over Fort Washington Way that Tony Bender
travels on every day. I feel like the decking is at this point.
There's been press conferences, the mayor talks about it. You know, the
money's not all identified, but we're at the phase of it where it seems
like it's a done deal. It's not a done deal, but you know,
there's an application into the federal government for a big chunk of the money,
and everyone pretty much talks about it. It is the next big project.
The mayor when he talks about all the development like the Convention Center district
and everything that's kind of happening that way, he talks about the decking.
So it really seems like there's the political will to do this. They just
need to really find the money. I feel like that's going to be a
subject at the end this year for sure, and I do feel like it's
coming, that connectivity to the banks. So it's just a huge separation,
and I don't know why it is. And this is my work, you
know, right down there, and it needs the decking will finally connect to
the downtown, to the banks. So your Crystal Wals is that will happen?
Yes, all right. Now, lastly, I want you to step
back a little bit because you've been down there for years and decades. You've
seen councils operate for a long long time. There was an opportunity with Liz
Keating to have like someone who was a Republican for the other eight in that
case, to kind of keep an eye on things. She didn't get a
snow. She finished tenth out of the money, not even close. Ran
a pretty good campaign, and I think the Amy Murray's and the Liz Heatings
of this world are extremely valuable, especially when it's a one party government and
you went through the entire regime of four members of council having been under a
criminal scrutiny. I think two have too, are in jail right now,
one's on his way Jeff Pastor, and I guess in about a month and
we'll see what happens. Do you have a sense that this city council,
which is far left wing compared to other city councils in my viewpoint, understand
that they're under more scrutiny because it's a one party government in Hambleton County.
I think the only office is the prosecutor, of course, and I think
the county engineer. Other than that, it's all Democrat all the time,
and we went through the most tumultuous era in the history of city politics that
would have made Charlie P. Taff roll over in his grave with all the
money flying around. Do you have a sense that this city council understands that
the region considers it to be not up to snuff when it comes to competency.
Do you have a sense this as a city council that understands they're under
a lot of scrutiny. No, no, no fee No. I think
how they feel is you know that the voters really have spoken and they put
forward like the things they want to do, the plans they want to do,
And I don't think they see it as scrutiny. I think they see
it as really like an overwhelming mandate of the citizens, this is what they
would like, and all of their plans and everything, and that they're doing
what they said they would do on the campaign trail. I don't think they
see it really as like the spotlight or scrutiny or anything. I think they
see it as this is what citizens do you want? Do you see?
I have to have pure of all I had. Some Washington sources tell me
he's been to Washington repeatedly, maybe Department of Labor if Biden or some Democrat
gets reelected. When I think the mayor's position, I think of Mark Mallory.
His family's been here for decades, maybe centuries. Charlie Luken goes back
deep into the bowels of city politics, and John Cranleigh spent his whole Family's
been here, Jay and Susan for a long time. A Taed Pureval almost
came horizontally, as sposed to vertically, from the Dayton area, and he's
got visions of going somewhere else. Rox sand Qualls came into office. City
council mayor lives here. Almost all the other mayors live here. I don't
think have tab pirival is long for this world. Politically, what does your
crystal ball say about him moving on? You know, I think that he
definitely does want a political career of some sort. I don't think I'm speaking
out of turn by saying that he has said to me repeatedly that he is
running for re election. But I do think the path out of Cincinnati is
very difficult, and I don't know what that looks like for him. I
don't know if he really knows what that looks like for him. There's just
not really a path to state government. It's just Republican controlled and I'm not
sure doesn't seem to be a direct line there. So what would be next
after you run for mayor? Yeah, and this fall, I would imagine
the state of Ohio is going to stay ruby red for as far as the
eye can see, and Hamilety County is going to be deep blue for as
far as the I can see. And so if he looks to Columbus as
a possible way out of city politics, I don't see that happening in the
State of Ohio the way it's now configured, which is why going to Washington
would make some sense. As at a department official, I think he would
like to be in the cabinet some way and instead of some deputy. But
we'll see what happens. We'll continue to follow this. No one does it
better than Sharon Coolidge, and I wanted to check with you every few months
to see about the one point six billion and what's happening. And thank you
very much once again for coming on the Bill Cunningham Show. Sharon, thank
you, thank you. Let's continue and if a line becomes available five one,
three, seven, four nine, seven thousand pounds seven hundred new eight
and t deck over Fort Washington Way, I seventy five redesigned claiming another twenty
acres streetcar up to Hell and Moore, and the money's gonna flow pretty greatly,
which I'm told will happen despite the protestations of Pete Whitty and many others.

Billy Cunningham, The Great American, twelve thirty seven. The ice storm is
sporadic at best, appears to be another overestimation of bad weather. The media
loves doing that. It's interesting to me that they cannot tell us what's going
to happen tomorrow or the next day or two days thereafter, but they can
tell us that in seventy or seventy five years, what the world's going to
look like from a weather perspective. That's called it global warming. I find
that impossible. Just follow the money, and the money will tell you the
policies that will be implemented when you get paid, and incentivizes more types of
this behavior. We'll see what happens down the road, But nicer days lie
ahead. Two or three issues are percolating. Number one, of course,
today's the New Hampshire primary, and I spoke to a member of the Trump
campaign last night late and extremely confident of about a ten to twelve point victory
over Nicki Helly. And we'll see what happens sometime tonight. We'll know the
two of them had pretty good relations until Nicki Haley won after Trump, and
of course the Trumpster when he's has a jab thrown his away, he throws
a knockout punch. So we'll see what happens politically. But if Nicki Haley
gets within ten percentage points, the race might continue to South Carolina in about
a month. It's about a four week separation to the Republican primary in February,
which is her home state, which she cannot win. All the polling
has the Trumpster up thirty to forty points on Nicki Haley, and those who
know her best like her least. So when the hometown is against him.
Maybe that's a problem. He's got the entire Republican establishment with him in South
Carolina and Nevada which is coming up thereafter, and we'll see what happens.
And the Democrats, of course, being Democrats, are not going to allow
Democrats to vote for Joe Biden because there was a real fear he might lose.
So the party that runs on democracy and threats to democracy and authoritarianism uses
their authority to eliminate democracy in New Hampshire because the Democrats really don't have a
choice to vote for or against Biden. So there are some that are doing
it right and so to speak, but the Democrats did not want to risk
what would be perceived as a loss in New Hampshire. You might recall that
in twenty twenty Biden finished fifth I said, fifth in the New Hampshire primary,
not too popular, and then he went on to barely win South Carolina.
They all formed behind him, thinking, okay, orange man bad,
we better get somebody who's milk toast that can't campaign to say anything, put
him in the basement, used the pandemic as an excuse, and then sign
up one hundreds of thousands of brand new voters through Mark Zuckerberg's foundation in four
or five states out of college campuses, and away we go. And that's
the name of that. So we'll see what occurs. And by the way,
the same thing is happening now. I read in one of the publications
that as we speak, they're signing up a large number of college students,
those on welfare government list to be able to vote by mail in Pennsylvania,
in Michigan, in Wisconsin, in Georgia and Nevada. So the way that
game is played that penn State, for example, might have on campus maybe
fifty thousand students. And so there's a coordinator developed at Penn State or University
of penn or any other college in Pennsylvania, which is a swing state,
and you're paid fifty bucks an hour, which is a boatload of money to
a college student to organize your sorority, organize your fraternity, organize your club,
organize your dormitory, to get out of the college age population in Pennsylvania,
about one hundred thousand new votes. And because Pennsylvania voting system is much
worse, not nearly as good as here in Ohio, because of mail in
balloting, no signature check. You can register all these voters, additional voters
out of dorms or welfare, unemployment workers, government benefits, and then when
the ballots come out, they can take a ballot to that person to sign
and then vote. Maybe the voter votes or maybe the organizer votes, and
then dropping in dropboxes all over the place, and away we go. And
none of the counting in Pennsylvania takes place until all the polls are closed,
so it takes several days just open the envelopes. The system is being gained.
Is it legal? Probably? Has it been tested, not at all,
But it's what's happening. Conservative working class Americans aren't organized in one location
all day for months before the election. Most of us have our lives to
live. But if you're in a college, if you're at Michigan State or
Michigan or Eastern Michigan, and you're not registered to vote, one of the
community organizers paid fifty bucks an hour by the five oh one C four.
We'll saddle up next to you. Hey, you roster, vote no,
or here's an application, a register signed the bottom. I'll take care of
the rest. Show me your idea. Okay, what's your name? Which
Okay, sign it up right there, will take care of it. And
then they give out gift cards to individuals who ten dollars Starbucks gift cards.
And then many times a po box is used in which the ballots go to
one location, normally the community organizer, and then he'll take the ballot to
the so called voter and saying all right, here's the ballot and vote.
And every day, over a thirty day cycle in October of this year,
they can mark off the list someone who's ballot they haven't collected. And then
they got and okay, you haven't voted yet, here's the ballot. Sign
it. I'll take care of the rest. That's how Democrats win elections.
Is it legal? Well? Probably? Has it been tested. No,
Because by the time the official winner is announced of a state, which might
be in Ohio, because we have a competent Secretary of State, Frank Lrose,
and before him many other secretaries of state were competent, we know by
midnight who won the state of Ohio. But in these other areas they need
some flex and so they have tens of thousands of ballots and boxes they haven't
been opened, and they get about the business of opening them after election day.
So by the time the state is awarded the first week in December,
any lawsuit fibed before then might be declared to be premature because the outcome of
the state's not been determined. So you can't claim something's going wrong because you
don't have the declaration by the Secretary of State that the Biden or Trump won
Pennsylvania. You don't know. You can follow lawsuit alleging all kinds of irregularities,
but everything's put on hold until the election is declared. And by the
time it's not risk. In legal terms, it's called the issue is not
ripe. It'll become ripe when the winner is declared. So here we are
the first week in December. Inaugural is about five weeks away, and okay,
we want to have a trial now and start calling. Well, first
of all, you got to take depositions, request for admissions, interrogatories and
all the rest. That takes months and months and months. Then you take
depositions that takes months and months and months, and then at some point there
might be a trial. But guess what the court's rule in December. Well,
at one point the issue wasn't ripe because we don't have a winner declared,
and now once a winner is declared, we can't have a trial on
these issues of stuffing ballot boxes and signature matches because the whole issue is moot.
We can't give the relief you seek because the inaugurals five weeks away.
We can't have a full blown federal trial with hundreds of witnesses in the next
next a few days when Christmas and New Year's is coming. So in one
case, the issue is not ripe because the winner's not been declared, But
then once the winner is declared, the issue is moot. Can't give the
relief that you seek because we don't have time to have a trial. So
we have the media and the Democrats screaming about, well, you had forty
eight judges say it was legitimate. They never said it was legitimate. What
they said was we can't have a trial because the system is not configured in
order to allow for one, because we don't have time between election day declaration
of the state winner about a month month and a half later, and then
the inaugural are so close in time there can't be a trial, and so
we move on to the next election with the same problems, Kentucky, Indiana,
Ohio, Florida all functional. Florida is a large state, rather diverse.
Date, by midnight on election day, they know the winner of the
state of Florida. Let's like Ohio or Kentucky or Indiana. Oh no,
no, no, not in Michigan, not in Wisconsin, not in Pennsylvania
mainly controlled by the Democrats. Guess what they went flex They want ability to
down the road to say, well, we got this other box over here,
we haven't open up that box, and away we go. You file
the lawsuit, contend there's some sort of legal maneuverings, legal deficiencies, or
the judge says, look, we don't know who won the election. So
at this point the issue is not ripe. We don't know. Now once
the declaration takes place, well, I can't give you the relief you want,
which is to throw out hundreds of thousands of ballots. It would take
years to have that trial. So the issues moot. I cannot give the
relief that you seek, so we move on to the next election. So
I see now I read over the weekend that the same groups have now organized
in four or five states to register. They had the list from twenty twenty.
But kids dump, jump out, or they flunk out of college.
They graduate, they move on, but they have to start again four years
later in January, which is now, to sign up one hundred thousand new
voters in Pennsylvania out of college campuses and government welfare list, and the activists
will handle the actual voting processes to sign your name, no signature match,
drop boxes everywhere. Weeks go by, opening up boxes, opening up envelopes,
putting them through Florida, Ohio, Indiana, Kentucky. Do it right,
Iowa, but not the so called blue states. They want a little
flexibility. In the history of American politics, no candidate has won Iowa,
Ohio, and Florida and lost the election. No one except Donald Trump in
twenty twenty. He won Iowa, Ohio, and Florida going away, and
he still easily lost the election because of all these new voters in COVID COVID
nineteen rather interesting. Now. Secondly, I've read with interest and I spoke
to some prosecutors about what's happening in Fulton County, and it's beyond ridiculous what
is transpiring. Even the Washington Post, a left wing rag says to Fannie
Willis, what were you thinking while she was thinking, like many big city
democrats, think that now that I have power, now that I have office,
talk to Jeff Pastor about this. I better monetize this damn thing.
So here's the timeline briefly. January first, twenty twenty one. January first,
twenty twenty one, she takes office. She runs for office, promising
to be as open and as she can be, promising to have an open
door policy with the media, and that sexual harassment or dating with subordinates would
not be not be put up with in the Fulton County Prosecutor's office. Then
February the tenth, about five weeks later, she opens a criminal investigation in
the Donald Trump and she appoints in November of twenty twenty one, a special
prosecutor, Nathan Wade, who has zero zilch nada, none prosecutory experience on
felonies, zero ziltch nada. I think at one point he worked in housing
court. But he had a special connection to the person making the appointment,
that is his lover, A little pillow talk going on November one, he's
appointed by Willis his lover. At two hundred and fifty bucks an hour,
but trial work itself will be built out at five hundred dollars an hour.
I mean then and now he's collected about six hundred and fifty thousand dollars.
The day after he's appointed, he files for divorce against his wife, Joscelyn
Wade, in Cobb County, which is next Toard to Fulton County. So
Wade gets the plumb assignment where he knows he's going to make up to five
to six million dollars divorce is his wife. At that point, he's already
has a special relationship with Fannie Willis, the female prosecutor in Fulton County.
Goes on and on, he submits bills which is six times greater than his
co counsel, and until we come to news media reports of about three weeks
ago, which no one can really believe during this time of making grossly a
lot of money. And you may not know this, but prosecutors don't make
a lot of money. You take the job because you care about law enforcement.
You get a nice pension when you retire. But Phone County prosecutor Fannie
Willis has his salary of one hundred and fifty thousand dollars a year one hundred
and fifty thousand, which is pretty good, but by lawyer's methods not so
great. They've taken trips together, staying in one cabin. I can only
imagine there might have been some of the old horizontal bop going on with the
prosecutor. Royal Caribbean Cruises, Vacation Express, the Height Regency in Aruba,
Norwegian Cruise Lines, Napa Valley and more, Double Tree Hotels, first class
air travel. It's because all of a sudden, Nathan Wade, he's got
six hundred and fifty thousand dollars more than he's ever had before in his life.
And Fannie Willis monetized the criminal prosecution of Donald Trump to a personal benefit.
That's called a kickback. And as far as the possible charges. Spoke
to some of my lawyer friends in Georgia that she violently by the way,
she'll come out of this without a law license. The state of Georgia will
not put up with this. You can't have prosecutors benefiting from the prosecution of
a criminal defendant, much less this criminal defendant is the former president of the
United States, so she at a minimum's going to lose her license down the
road as Nathan Wade may also, according to my friends, honest services fraud,
which is eighteen USC. Thirteen forty six, which, by the way,
is a federal criminal statute, along with various civil rights statues, have
been violated by Fanny Willis herself. She's looking literally at decades in federal prison
for what she did. In addition to that, Georgia has lots of criminal
statues that apply violation of republic oath, bribery, improper influencing of a public
official, false statements, and concealment of crime. Racketeering. There's a good
one conspiracy to defraud the government, criminal conspiracies, and Fulton County's gift ban.
This morning, I watched the divorce judge in Fulton County and Jocelyn Wade
wants to know the assets of the marriage to which she's entitled to a split.
To get the assets, she must, of course put her husband,
Nathan Wade, under oath and the lover who this case is the Fulton County
prosecutor. Prosecutor, what were you thinking when you thought Okay, by the
time this case is done, my lover and I will share between five and
ten million dollars in fees, and I will monetize my office. I'll take
kickbacks from my lover and the six hundred and fifty thousand paid to date in
which one day he worked, Nathan Wade said he worked twenty four hours in
one day, pay two hundred and fifty bucks an hour. The White House
said there was no coordination between the White House, Joe Biden, and county
prosecutor. Now we find out that on two separate occasions, Nathan Wade build
a total of sixteen hours to the tune of about four thousand dollars plus expenses
to go to the White House. Nathan Wade, the housing court attorney with
no felony criminal experience, is going to the White House to do what?
Talk about the weather? No, it was a coordination between Joe Biden and
Fulton County to get Trump indicted and tried before the election. Talk about election
interference, bingo, it's right there. So this morning, the divorce judge,
unfortunately for Nathan Wade and his lover, said he's going to treat this
case like any other divorce case. Oh no, I don't get special treatment
because I'm in love with my special prosecutor and I'm benefiting myself. It's called
kickbacks, and this is playing out. Donald Trump has been blessed with his
opponents, whether it's whether it's Hillary Clinton, Joe Biden, or uh Nicky
Haley to an extent, and Fannie Willis. These characters are just unbelievable and
their brazen attempt to rip off the tax pit. Keep them off the ballot.
Sue him and dyte him, sue his businesses, put him in prison,
try him quickly. It was all conjured up to metastasize this year so
that the Trumpster could not campaign. We'll see later on how many Republicans and
Americans see through this completely. Let's continue with more if a line becomes available,
which it never does five pine three seven four nine, seven thousand.

Enter it now, Bill cunning in the Great American, of course,
the Great Scott Pile of the Discovery Institute driven two columns a great notes.
One involves martinathering Junior holiday and what's happened to you and all of the goals
of that civil rights movement with Greg Schuldsroorth and so many others, as compared
to Black Lives Matter. I'm watching a Raven's playoff game and they got him
six foot high letters on the side of the stadium black Life Lives Matter,
and where you can make a donation to Black Lives Matter founded by two or
three Marxists who have become multi millionaires. You know, racism raises a lot
of money. And the other issue is Davos, Switzerland. What happened last
week? That have plans for you and I which are truly unbelievable. Scott
Powell, once again, welcome to the Bill Cunningham Show and Scott. I'm
looking at issues relative to the so called mainstream media. If it's not about
race or sex or Trump, there's no news in the country at all when
I see these large signs Black lives matter. Of course, of course all
lives matter. Their lives matter too, But the goal is to raise lots
of money to be spent by Black Lives Matter, Inc. Which has monetized
that describe in nineteen sixty eight April the fourth, the life taking of Martin
Luther King Junior and Lorraine Motel by James Earl Ray in Memphis, and the
goals of that civil rights movement that began I think after World War Two and
metastasized in a good way with the passage of the nineteen sixty four and sixty
five Civil Rights Act. And then Martin Luther King Junior. What is his
attitude toward the racial discrimination difficulties as opposed to Black Lives Matter? Couldn't he
be a wider golf right? So I think it's good to frame this this
conversation with acknowledging that Martin Luther King would have nothing to do with Black Lives
Matter. The Black Lives Matter philosophy is anathopa anathema to everything that Martin Luther
King stood for. We all know his great speech in front of a Lincoln
memorial in which he said he looked forward to the day when his children and
grandchildren would be judged by not by the color of their skin, but by
the quality of their character. Martin Luther King was in every way a merit
oriented man, and the merit that he spoke out most significantly was, of
course not just the the ability of the intellectual prowess and so forth, but
really the moral character of people. That this was what we needed to focus
our attention on. And of course the Black Lives Matter movement that has embraced
critical racetory. Remember that the Black Lives Matter movement was born out of Marxism,
uh and it's and as such, you know was it was founded by
Patrise Cullers and Alicia Garza, self identified as Marxists. And for those who
relate identity politics to progress, I would just ask them what good ever came
out of Marxism. You know, there may be newcomers that get ideologically,
you know, they presupposed that their cause is about a socialist utopia. Fine,
it's people can experiment with that in their minds, but in practice,
Marxist rule has a sad history of delivering poverty, corruption, and mass death
across every culture in the history of Marxism. So why are we Why does
Black Lives Matter that is a Marxist organization have any credibility at all. It's
really preposterous. And those sayings are put on the side of football stadiums like
in Baltimore see the big signs for the playoffs. Black Lives Matter has a
place for you to donate money to. And something you said quote in your
article is at the Federalist dot com. The Federalist dot com. King would
condemn critical race theory because it perpetuates negative racial stereotypes against white people. And
I'm watching some of these stories at in these colleges and universities, you have
separate graduation, separate dorms, separate classes for black folks as opposed to everyone
else. And that's racism. So isn't critical race theory and DEI the essence
of that is racism? Yes, absolutely, Again, everybody in this country
needs to understand that we are in a cultural communist revolution. They want to
undo all the progress we've made. They want to divide us every which way,
by class, by race, by gender, by straight or gay or
transgender, in every way. They want to keep us divided. A divided
nation is a weak nation. And the Marxists want to take over America,
and domestic Marxists, many of them, are working hand in glove with overseas
enemies of the United States, notably communist China. Yes, part of that's
the Southern ter you know, Scotty. Absolutely, we have probably twenty thousand
military age single Chinese men that have come across the southern border. And how
is that possible. China is you know, does not just let people leave
their country easily. So these have to be chartered and sanctioned by the Chinese
government to enter the United States with all the other immigrants, for a reason,
for a purpose. And I would argue that these constitute a fifth column
that would be activated attacking you know, our energy grid or any number of
things, you know, perhaps simultaneous to their move on Taiwan. We we
just don't know, but these these we have to protect our nation. And
the Biden administration has utterly let us down. I mean, and of course,
how how is that possible? Well, the Biden family took you know,
over thirty million dollars by Peter Schwit's estimate in money from China. Well,
you know, it's an article of faith among the communist Red Chinese to
pay off the leaders of a country with tens of millions then get access to
billions of dollars worth of off the Biden They made a bet that Joe Biden
might be he was vice president. They paid him big bucks them then directly
and indirectly, and they were betting on him and some others. Somebody's going
to win the presidency in twenty twenty. They couldn't bribe Donald Trump, so
they went after Joe Biden and other Democrats to give them serious money, hoping
they made the right bet. It's like a roulette wheel, and they put
like thirty million dollars on Biden, and damn it, it hit that.
Here goes the pill. Yep, that's it. We got him. And
so what information they have on Biden to public is unbelievable, and it hit
pretty quickly. In his very first year of his administration, Biden totally botched.
It appears that he totally botched the withdrawal of Afghanisan. Guess who now
controls the Barbrom Air Force Base. Guess who has access to the huge amounts
of lithium for of course electric vehicle batteries and so forth. It is China.
Did China tell Biden to abandon all that military equipment and just leave the
country on short notice? I don't know. So what happened to be?
The communist red Chinese are paying off the Taliban and giving them lots of money,
lots of cash to get access to the minerals and also access to military
hardware. And that's a minor item. And Scott Pollham looking at several headlines,
I'll put these together to show you out of the southern border what's happening.
One headline is New York City man urinating on car slashes throats of passers
by who told him to stop. He was arrested, released within six hours,
mentally ill. He's an illegal immigrant. Next one is in a out
burger. I've heard about it, never had it. They tell me it's
a good burger in Oakland, California, to close after out of control crime.
The employees refuse to park their cars in the parking lot and in and
out burger because of all the car thefts and the slashing of towers, of
breaking the windows. And then thirdly, how about this headline, Hollywood's Walk
of Fame has become the Walk of Shame. Once glamorous boulevard is filthy,
overrun by homelessness and struggling homeless camps, fentanyl use, attacking of passers by,
and closing of businesses. So that is Oakland slash San Francisco. That's
New York City, and that's Hollywood, that's LA That is what's happening in
our major cities. And the big story might be Taylor Swift, but in
reality, we're watching the deliberate dismantling of the United States of America, and
we deal with irrelevancies. Why, well, that's that's a long, wrong
story, Bill, But you know, it's what we know is the the
long march through the institutions. And you know when when the proletariat never never
rose up to overthrow the bourgeoisie, over overthrow the capitalists, you know,
the Marxists, they never gave up their vision. They said, well,
you know, how can we take down Western civilization, how can we take
down America? Well, let's see if we can't take over their culture.
And of course this came out of Antonio Gramci, the head of a Italian
communist party. It came out of the Frankfurt School who migrated from Nazi Germany
to Columbia University, and they began their work to sort of transform the culture
of America away from our patriotic roots, our religious and patriotic roots, to
a you know, to a cultural divisive ideology that really took root after the
nineteen sixties in a very big way. Because as you abandon your Christian roots,
you leave a vacuum. And what does that vacuum get filled with?
Tech took a false, a false surrogate secular Marxist religion. Technically, so
many of these people that are doing these things are they are worse than Christian
religious fanatics. These are very these these are subversive people that want to destroy
us. And it's high time that we that we really woke up to the
scope of this communist revolution. And I you know, and I dare say
that Americans are finally waking up, but it's red late. I hope we
have a Can you imagine November the sixth, the day after the election,
and some liberal, progressive Marxist interchangeable drill bit Democrat is elected again, continuing
the policies of Joe Biden for the next four to twelve years into the future.
We're right now in the middle at the end of the third Obama term.
If we get too more of these terms, I don't know what we're
what we're going to look like. I know it's not good. I know
it's bad. And demographers have said in the year twenty fifty, which you
think is way off, we're close to twenty fifty as we are in nineteen
ninety nine or two thousand. We're going to have an additional one hundred million
Americans. Seventy percent of them will be unattached, single males from all over
the world who have no skills this economy needs. And they're not, shall
we say, similar to the American culture and the religions and the faith,
and the allegiance to the Bill of Rights and the Statue, you know,
all the statutes and laws. And we have another one hundred million, and
let's say seventy five percent of unattached, single, illiterate males from around the
world. What does that look like. We may not be around to see
it, but our children and graduate will live in that society with overcrowded schools,
non existing hospitals, with systems overtaxed. Los Angeles is going to have
thirty million people by that point. New York City is going to have twenty
two million. And we're done, We're dismantled. Is that the goal or
is that an unintended consequence. No, that's the goal. That's the goal.
The goal is the takedown of Western civilization in the United States, the
United It could be argued that the United States is the only thing standing in
the way of a communist tyranny in the world because you know, and it's
really our beliefs that stand in the way. And that's why the communists first
go after the Christian the Christianity, the Christian beliefs, the religious beliefs of
people. They attack and try to destroy the family. Look at the condition
of the American family today, and it reflects a concerted effort. You know,
Americans didn't just collapse on their own. They were subliminally affected by this
cultural Marxist rebel that has made all this progress. And it's very sad to
say that so many elites in America have benefited from division. I think during
the pandemic where the vast majority of American people lost wealth, they had to
close a lot of businesses. The elites became vastly more wealthy. Doesn't that
tell you everything you need to know about this? You know what's facilitating this
revolution in America? It is wealthy elites who think they will have a table,
a place at the table of the communist New World Order. Well,
I've got news for them. They're going to be the first targets to be
killed and destroyed. Absolutely. But when I see large signs saying about gay
rights in Palestine, I'm thinking, are you kidding me? If you were
in Palestine, if you were in an Arab country and you fly that gay
rights flag, guess what you'll be pushed off the top of a building.
When I was in Israel in May, I saw the gay pride flag in
several locations in downtown Jerusalem. It's a multi cultural, welcoming city that the
Arab world would love to destroy because it's the capital of capital of Israel.
One last little headline, bloodthirsty venezuel and gang has caused heavy and Latin America.
They're now in South Florida. They're in the Miami area, because that's
where the money is. So we're importing into America willingly, the worst elements
of societies around the world, and we're acting as if the words of the
Statue of Liberty apply from the nineteenth century to this century, and it does
not. And so I would get away from urging people to listen to what
the Republican candidate has to say, most likely Donald Trump and his peccadillos,
and take the long The long look from twenty ten to twenty years from now
is to what this country will look like. We'll look like downtown Oakland,
or downtown Portland, or downtown Chicago. And we can't have that. Well
we can. You know, people are waking up and thanks to you,
Bill, in your great voice, your huge outreach, and I want to
encourage every listener of the Bill Cunningham Show to talk to their friends. Let's
double Bill's audience. Let's get this word out because our country, you can
be saved. We can turn this all around. But it really requires the
mobilization of the American people in a way that we've never seen before. We'll
call it the Second American Revolution. So I look forward to that revolution in
November. I really do Lastly, your column is at the Federalist dot com.
Scott Powell. I see another headline, Senator John Fetterman of Pennsylvania quote,
migration threatens to destroy the American dream. That comes from Senator John Fetterman,
and I'm thinking that's the first time this guy said something I agree with.

Scott Powell, and we got to get on a Davos. Maybe in a

coming on the Bill Show and your kind words. Thank you very much,
Thank you for all that you do. Bill, keep it up. God
bless you. Thank you very much. All right, let's continue with more
and think about that. Think about America with one hundred million, more seventy
million unattached mails from all over the world, and we're letting them willingly into
this country with the design of dismantling the United States of America. And please,
we have so much involved in this in this election that we got to

twenty four. I thought it was twenty twenty three, not really, or
twenty twenty four, nineteen twenty four. There were ten predictions made, all
right, not how life would be in twenty twenty four. I bet you
they're almost right on the nose. Go ahead. Number one. Number one,
according to this men's legs in twenty twenty four would have withered away because
of lack of use. So we've lost our legs. Number two. Commercial

the mode of communication like the Jetsons Jet powered bicycles. Do you see that
happening. No Americans will be hopping from planet to planet as easily as you
walk down the street. So I said, I'll go from Mercury to Earth.
I know what's next to mercury. What's the next one? Sun Mercury,
Sun Mercury, Venus, Venus Earth, Earth, Ma, No,
the moon? Got about the Moon? Well, we already get that,
says planet the planet. So then what's my past Mars? Well you might
have Saturn or Saturn, Neptune or the big U Mercury. That's number one.
Hell, I don't know what about Jupiter. Jupiter is pretty big.
But let's continue with predictions. We're going to jump from planet to planet.
To go ahead, It says there radio may have a future if there's enough
distribution of the units. Nineteen twenty four. I think that worked out one
years later. Okay, what else? What's on? What else is on
that list? Who's this from? This is from the New York Times nineteen
twenty four? Wow? Also, uh huh, horses will no longer be
used as transportation in major city. Now, that was a good one.
That was that's pretty good right there. And mules will no longer be used
in major city. We got enough of those transports. We got a lot
of assis ton't no, you said it, not me. Also, the
population of the US in twenty twenty four will be up to one hundred and
eighty million currently it's two forty three forty They missed out by a few bingo.
But uh, this is some of the predictions. How about that?
How about you and I get together predictions for the year twenty one twenty four
to see what happens and leave them here in a time capsule. Okay,
poor horses still be the major mode of communication or a transmit in twenty one
twenty four, probably so well, we have legs in twenty one twenty four.
Yeah, can we go from planet to planet? Although it's a bit
warm in Venus, it's a bit a bit cold in Mars. I here,
Saturn's nice this time of year as it is, but Mars when the
sun goes what about the one that's farthest away, what about some of the
mean Uranus? Yeah that too, Well, it's kind of cold there.
Yeah, but in Mars, when the sun's not shining, the temperature is
minus one and twenty five degrees. No way, that's a bit chilly.
Jennifer ketch Mark would have a field day on Mars, no question about that.
About with the weather people, I love Jennifer Ketchmark, she would go
crazy. SI imagine a wind chill every day. How about something about hippos?
What's this prediction? Please? Please have pans on? Please have pants
on? Does she talking about? I don't know, I don't know.
Arithmatical progressions would indicate that hippos would lose their size and be no larger than
a German shepherd in twenty twenty four. I don't tell that that Tucker,
Phoebe, Fritz and Fiona. And you know what Tomorrow is Paul Cogan's No

they're singing Happy birthday a little early at the zoo. Where's Thane Bynard?
Haven't they selected a mate? I hate to bring this up with the

I don't think so well. I send Joe Dieters a lot of the
remarks about Fiona's death, and they're not getting better after the wait. But
no, now, harambe not. Fiona's still alive. Take it easy.
Now you just gave the you just gave the heart attack trouble. Okay,
there's Tucker. There's talking, I mean talking tech. Fiona, thank you.
You think hippos are physically attractive for me? If you look at Fiona,
would you say, boy, I like to mate with Fiona. I'd
be careful, be real careful. The Big Age will live again. He
lives now. Loop there's Frick Fritzy. Fiona now has reached the mating age.

of town, pedestrians will be on moving sidewalks, and motor cars multiplying indefinitely.
All came true. So they thought automobiles in nineteen twenty four would travel
on speedways through the center of town. See highway patrol again next week.
Until then, remember, it isn't what's your drive, but how your drive

in California today will happen throughout the Midwest tomorrow and beyond. On the Gavin
Newsoon nightmare, the California disaster is ongoing. There was an announcement a few
months back that, in addition to all the other deficit it's spending, in
addition to all the homelessness, in addition to all the lack of handling the
resources of California properly, on top of chasing out productive Californians, et cetera.
Now Gavin Newson wants to provide free medical care to a half a million
illegals, as if that won't impact the cost or the weight and ers et
cetera. The whole system hospital system is not set up, as you may
know, to handle that many people into it. Whether it's the one hundred
million coming into America over the next several decades, or whether it's California,
we're in trouble. Of course, John Cox is a former California natorial candidate.
Sadly he did not win. Nonetheless, the book is the news and
Nightmare of the California disaster? And John Cox, can I lay out for
you the nightmare scenario that I've been talking about the last few months. Do
you want to hear the nightmare scenario? I'm pretty much already familiar with it.
Bill. I've lived with Newsland for a while, and I know that
he's running the shadow campaign for president. But go ahead, have at it.
It is now the end of July. It is hot, brailing and
unforgiving, and Joe Biden is tumbling downstairs. He's babbling incoherently, and the
White House has become a retirement center. And the Democratic Party runs all these
polls the end of July, and guess what Trump is gonna beat Biden.
So someone goes to Joe Biden first, to Jill Biden, and then to
Joe Biden, saying, for the good of the party, you gotta step
down. We're gonna do this big show in August at Chicago, and we're
gonna come out behind the drape. We're gonna have Michelle Obama come out as
the presidential candidate, and on her side will be vice president to be Gavin
Newsom. The nightmare scenario in which Michelle Obama wins, Gavin Newsom is the
president in waiting in every shot overlook on her shoulder constantly. How real as
kind of a you're a business leader and author, is what I'm saying,
Completely out of the realm of reality, not at all. I think any
Democrat, frankly who looks at Joe Biden. Of course, Republicans have thought
Joe Biden is out of it for a while, but the Democrats have certainly
thought that too. And I really think I agree with you. I don't
know how he makes it for four more years. And what they don't want
Bill is president Kamala. Oh, she would be even worse and for the
Democratic Party and for the country. And so I think that your scenario is
not crazy. I not about Michelle Obama. I don't know what she gains
by becoming president, except I suppose more power for her and her husband.
But you know, I think it'll be a broker convention. It's in Chicago
in August, my hometown, and we'll have to see. This is going
to be unprecedented. It really is unprecedented to have a president that out of
it as Joe Biden to begin with, and of course he's the second coming
of Jimmy Carter with problems with oil and inflation and iron I think the Democrats
have got to see themselves in trouble and they certainly don't want Trump to be
repeated. No, John Cox, let's get let's look under the covers of
the California for disaster, the fiscal disaster awaiting in California. When you have
a disaster like that, fiscally, the best thing to do is is keep
spending lots of money and tell productive Californians to leave. Those are the two
things you do. Tell that Tony Bender types, get the hell out of
California. We're going to tag you have existence. And then second we've got
to spend more money. Explain the California fiscal disaster. Well, listen,
I'm in the business World, Bill. I've been in business for forty years,
and the first rule of business is when you're in a hole, stop
digging. And now that's the opposite of politicians like Newsomb. But I'll tell
you, really and truly, it's all about Newsom and his rise to power,
which is also about the special interest money, the unions, the environmental
lobbyists, the trial lawyers. All these groups flood him with money. And
then of course the media also backs Newsom because he loves to talk about their
pet issues like abortion, like guns, like climate change. He ignores all
the other disasters, the housing crisis, homelessness, shortages of water and electricity
and gasoline, and the lousy roads and the rising crime. He ignores all
that to talk about those hot button issues, and he also feeds his special
interest And that's how California has just made it so difficult for the average person
to live there. If you get a lot of money, you're gonna do
fine. But if you don't, which is ninety nine percent of the population,
you are really struggling in what it should be a beautiful place to live.
And I wrote this book Bill because I don't want the rest of the
country to experience what we have in California. I look at the flooding happening
all over California right now as I speak, and there was an availability many
years ago to double the reservoir system. In other words, all the water
possible is falling on California to be used. It's going strictly out to the
ocean. Why didn't California the last ten to fifteen years, with this explosion
in population because of Illego aliens and the doubling of the state budget in ten
years, why not double the reservoir system so all this flooding happening, you
could have water as far as the eye can see. Why didn't that happen
Because there were deep pocketed environmental groups bill that didn't want it, And of
course they represent a tiny sliver of the population. And they're not worried about
farmers, they're not worried about people drinking water. They rather have a declining
population. They think there's too many people in the world already, and certainly
they think there's too many people in California. And so this tiny sliver of
environmental extremists really kind of control things because they raise money, scaring people half
to death, and they got to spend it. And what do they do.
They spend it buying politicians, giving new some money. And of course
then he asked a kowtow. What we've got to do, Bill is and
that's what the book is about, as well, changing our electoral system to
get away from the nightmare of California. We got to get away from this
political structure that gives all the power to the special interest and to the me
And I know you're a member of the media, but you're a good member
of the media. The mainstream media in this country is very far left of
where the people are. Yes, but they have a lot of the power.
Bill And when I'm proposing it's an idea called here are the people that
will start with Congress getting the money out, making Congress truly the people's house
again. And in doing so, we'll get away from the politicians for hire
like Gavin Newsom. And we have to do it for the future of the
country. We really do talk about healthcare and then the public education system.
You're saying California is now having a Fisco Armageddon, It's going to get a
lot worse. Explain what Gavin Newsom did and the Democrats and Sacramento relative to
healthcare for I llegal aliens shouldn't be here in the first place. Well,
let's pay let's face it. You know, a big chunk of Newsom's power
and money come from healthcare companies, the big hospital chain, the big insurers,
and of course they're all too happy to take government money to cover illegal
immigrants, and they just open the floodgates, just open the veins of the
taxpayers of the state, and they're paying for that. And of course the
same thing with the education system bill. Listen, my mother was a Chicogo
public school system. The school teacher. The school system in California is basically
owned by the teachers' unions. There's one hundred billion dollars spent in California on
education bill, and the teachers' unions decide how that gets spent. You can't
fire an incompetent teacher. There's so much money spent on administration. We've got
to get the education system and the healthcare system away from the politicians, away
from these interest groups. More competition, more opportunity, better service, better
quality. That's only going to happen if we change this political structure, which
is really what my book is about. I saw a story this morning on
NBC News about the city at Denver is three hundred million dollars upside down in
one hospital because of over usage by those who pay nothing into the system.
In California, if somebody would twist an ankle, break an arm, and
go to an er and downtown Los Angeles into a hospital system, what would
that look like? Because I've not had that experience. If somebody would have
a medical emergency and go to an er in Los Angeles or San Francisco,
what would one face? First of all, there would be long lines.
Bill, When you open up the healthcare system to just anybody, especially illegal
immigrants, you're going to have, first of all, long lines, rationed
care and poor quality. And that's what is faced. You know, I
have a concierge doctor, you know, because I can afford it in California.
But I'm one of the lucky few. Most everybody in California faces rationed,
lower quality care. And again it's managed by the government, and the
interest groups don't care. They're pocketing the money, they're pocketing the profits.
We've got to get, basically, our politicians to be free of these interest
group influences. So that we can get a system that actually works for everybody.
And again, that's what here the people, and that's what my book
is is trying to communicate the people. We just can't keep complaining about this.
We're going to do something. Demographers of the US Census Bureau saying,
the year twenty fifty, and we think twenty fifty, John Cox, is
a long way off. Well, we're as close to twenty fifty as we
are to the year nineteen ninety nine, which happened like last weekend. And
we're told that in twenty fifty and current trends that the population of California will
double to almost ninety million human beings living in California. California doesn't have the
capacity for the forty to forty five million living there now, whether it's the
expressways, the water systems, the reservoir systems, the sewerages systems, the
ers, the public schools. What does California look like on the path that
it's on now And the year twenty fifty, when the population of California has
doubled, Well, first of all, I'm not sure it will double because
so many people are already leaving the state. But you're right, we may
attract so many illegal immigrants and other people that just want to live off the
government. But you know, you know, Margaret Thatcher said it, Bill.
You know, socialism works great until you run out of other people's money,
and that's what we have. We don't have another Ronald Reagan in the
wings yet. I'm hoping that he or she is out there, that it's
going to make the argument to people that you know, socialism just doesn't work,
that it's never worked. I love this new argenteam President and the speech
he gave at Davos. I would love if every college student were to pay
attention to that speech, because you know, freedom and opportunity and free market
capitalisms are Capitalism is the only way to provide prosperity to people and abundance.
Socialism is all about scarcity and low quality, and we've got to just get
that message out. I'm hoping California finally grows some you know, political leaders,
that we'll talk about that. In the meantime. The idea I have
bill about changing the structure so that we subdivide congressional districts into one hundred little
tiny districts. I'm hoping that's going to take hold, because that would take
away the power of the media, that would take away the power of these
big interest groups like the unions and big oil. And that's when we have
to get back. We have to get back to real leaders at a people's
Congress that isn't manipulated by all these outside forces. John Cox, you're a
hopeful individual. I'm not intimately familiar with Sacramento politics, but as I understand
that the Democratic Party controls everything, the governorship, all statewide offices, attorney
general, veto proof majorities in the House and the Senate, the California Supreme
Court, they're all. You can't find a Republican in California with a search
warrant. It doesn't exist. So it is hopeful to say, you know,
okay, things that get better. But isn't it up to the people,
to the actual voters, to say we can't take it anymore? And
is there any indication in a small way that we've turned the corner, because
I don't see it at this point. Well, I hate to disagree with
you, Bill, but you know, California actually has more Republicans than almost
any state in the Union. There's five million registered Republicans. It's just that
we're major, you know, there's we're overshadowed by the Democratic registration, which
you know has been pushed up by motor voter and by the control that is
in Sacramento. Now I'm looking for people to finally reach their breaking point.
I'm hopeful that the idea of here the People, which people can find out
about it here Thepeople dot Org, that we can remake the congress and the
congressional districts in California as well as the whole country, and in doing that
we can get people back interested in politics. You know, Bill, a
lot of people have turned off of politics because it's so reactionary, it's so
us versus them. They and they also look at the media and the interest
groups having so much power that most people say to themselves, why should I
pay attention? Don't I can't have any impact. If we get congressional districts
subdivided into one hundred little tiny districts where people actually get to meet their representatives,
talk to them, they get to feel like they have a relationship,
maybe people will get back interested in politics. And we need to have that
because we can't keep going the way we're going right now. And you know
with people like newso we need better leaders. Well, Chicago had a chance.
About a year ago. They had Lori Lightfoot also known as Beetlejuice.
She absolutely ran the place into the ground. And then they elect someone more
liberal. Brandon Johnson is the mayor of Chicago. He's worse than Lori Lightfoot,
and I hope that Californians can lead the way. Lastly, i'd say
this. You made a comment earlier about when you're in a hole, quit
digging. If you divide the losses for EVS and Ford between the amount of
money they lost and the amount of number of evs they sold, every electric
vehicle Ford sold last year cost the company minus sixty five thousand dollars sixty five
thousand dollars per car. If I was Farley at Ford, I'd probably quit
selling our vs ever time you sell one, it's six costs sixty five thousand
plus. Throw on top of that, the rental car agencies are saying,
we're nobody wants to rent these things fifty percent reduction so far in sales in
the month of in the last quarter. The consumer don't it doesn't want them.
Rental car companies won't take them, but Gavin Newsom has the requirement that
in twenty thirty everything must change fundamentally in California and that's got to stop.
But John Cox, I love your optimism. I love the idea that California
is going to lead the way they would have been so much better off if
you'd been elected governor. The name of the book is the Newsom Nightmare,
the California Disaster. And but most importantly you have chapters after chapter on how
to reform things and once again, and that's the id like to be hopeful.
Can you give me a minute of hope before we conclude this? What
hope Californians have? Well, you know, there's no expression in economics,
and that is things will keep going the way they are until they can't anymore.
And that's really what's going to happen in California, where people are just
going to get so fed up with the lack of water, the electricity rates,
the cost of living, the housing, the homelessness, all this stuff,
and they're going to rebel. And I believe that's going to happen.
And if it's not happening now, it's going to happen pretty soon. And
I'm hopeful that Americans, will you know, do the right thing, Like
Winston Churchill said, you know, Americans, you know will do the right
thing after they've exhausted every other alternative. Well, the nightmare scenario is Michelle
Obama for four years and then Gavin Newsom for eight years past that, bringing
the California disaster the nightmare to the entire country, in which case we can't
survive. John Cox, God bless you. The Newsome Nightmare, the California
Disaster, how to reform things once again, thank you very much for coming
on the Bill Cunningham Show and keep the disasters in California. Thank you,
Bell really appreciate it. Thanks for having me. Good here, God bless
you. Let's continue with more, John Cox. The book is the Newsome
Nightmare. And if I'm right, and I'm seldom wrong, the Democratic Party
will say at some point we can't take it anymore. And that here comes
Michelle Obama as the figurehead with Gavin Newsom running everything. Bill cunning in The

of the Town's cap for a very sad news. Willie in the Animal World
death Death in the family. Ugga Ugga, the mascot of Georgia has passed
away this morning. He died at the age of ten. He was the
most successful. See there's Fiona passing along condole dog. There goes the wrestling
right uh, in the history of Georgia. This dog had seen it all,
the most successful. And it's a thirty day period of morning for for
Oga and they're going to have to pick. They have a successor that they
picked, but they're gonna have a collaring ceremony. That's big. I mean
the Georgia mascot, is is it? What about that dog? That dog
lives better than you? And I what about the mascot when he met the
mascot for the TEXANSRNS. I remember seeing that video. If everybody sees it,
you can look at it, I guess on video on YouTube. But
they brought Bevo over to meet Uga, and Uga started barking. Bevo was
backing up like the Bengals secondary weighed fourteen pounds, had whole. There wasn't
nope, he want he doesn't want any I don't want anything to do with
the big u g A. Well, how about the Notre Dames mascot,
some drunk irish dude. It's a dwarf. I'm thinking, how do you
have a drunk dwarf as you as your mascot? But Notre Dame does.
At least Savior has a musketeer and the Blue Blob. And the blue Blob,

hoofs of Bevo. Don't be messing with the big Uga, Willie. They
were finally gotten the we'll be messing with the Dogs. You could kind of
yank Uga off, but Beebo's a different matter. Sixteen hundred pounds of male
steer is hard to deal with. Well, lean plenty of college basketball Tonight,

The Baseball Hall of Fame will announce its class of twenty twenty four tonight
after six o'clock in Beautiful COOPERSWN. Who will get in well, I would
say that Todd Helton has a shot. He got seventy two percent of the
vote the last time I remember, Bel tre Sho did Billy Wagner Bel Trevia.
Joe Bauer, former catcher with the Twins. Chase Utley is in there.
That's Iffy. I don't know. He's one of the he's one of
the newcomers. So Tiffy, we'll see what happens. I don't know.
It all depends on how c Tren and everybody else voted. According to Texas,
Bebo's assault at the at the teeth of Hugo, he caused him serious
emotional distress. I would say so has not been the same since the attack
of the British bulldog. Let's see. Bengals quarterback coach Dan Pitcher Willie said
the interview with the Patriots today about their offensive coordinator's job. Of course,
if Pitcher stays here, he's going to be oc of the Bengals. Since
Brian Callahan is off to Music City, USA. Is he related to Dirty
Harry Callahan? Is that the same? Is he related to Plin East Twitch
somehow? I think so. Let's see. Bengals safety Jordan Battle has been
named to the Pro Football Writers twenty twenty three NFL All Rookie Team and a
former UC and Coleraine product and the tackle master himself, Ivan Pace Junior with
the Minnesota Vikings is on that team too. Ivan Jachenoff's pretty good. Yes,
he is tackle anything, anything except Bevo and Oga. Well, there's
something about dogs barking that other animals and humans don't like. Correct some sort
of feeling. There's a pack, especially the Georgia mascot nasty as the British
bulldog and Bevo. Of course, Georgia won the game, but Bevo was
intimidated by Uga, wouldn't you be absolutely even Bebo's got those long hoards about
four hundred feet long. I saw Uga about three years ago trying to bite
the crotch of a Florida Gator football player. Remember that scene, That's right.
It was after a touchdown and the Florida player wanted to go and mock
Uga. Yeah, his chompers started going for the almost got almost got for
the uh you know the he almost had the unkindest cut of all. Bite
would have been transgender at that point, that's for sure. Uga wasn't gonna
let go either. I don't think so. No, Uga, you don't
mess with Uga Bingo. And now he's moved on. Was out there in
doggie Heaven and he has crossed the Rainbow bridge with Mimi to to Emma and
Zumi. Well, what about Schnorf the pen That's right. Vaccine's up there
too, Maxine, that's right. They're probably having fun today. So I
don't know what to say, but the Oga is dead at the age of
ten. Wow. I mean, and you know what, we're not making
fun of this, but that's big news in Georgia. It is I mean
that mascot, is it. I Mean, when you think of the Georgia
Bulldogs, you think about maybe two national championships in a row, this and
that and everything else, but it all comes back through the mascot. How
about this. The Silar family in Savannah, Georgia has maintained the line of
mascots pure blood English bulldogs for seventy five years. How about that? The
family said Uga X was ten years old, died peacefully in her bed in
Savannah. There were candles around, and there were lots of postings about the
what Uga meant to the Georgia faithful bingo, there's no messing around with Uga.
No, there's not, and he had manyro You don't mess with the
mascots, welly, you can mess with everybody else. When you mess with
a mascot of a team, you got problems. It's war. The Florida
Wide receiver one of again got Florida guy almost got them of his chump right
there. You know, one of my best friends, Alvin Roar, only
buys bulldogs from this breeder. Well, put the Roar back in insurance.
He's putting the Roar back and his dog. He loves English bulldogs too.
Here you go. Aren't they ugly? And they slobber? Right? Well,
it's like Rocky, where's he at? Pizza being delivered? Ran out
to get fed, tipping the game? Is not a very attractive looking animal?
Am I right about this? Well? He's beloved. The Cimer family
is now they have another Oga, ready to go have another one? Right
there, ready for next season. But there'll be a collaring ceremony for the
new master. I bet you'll probably have about sixty thousand people show up.
Well, that's a beloved mascot, Willie. I guarantee you you don't mess
with that. You don't mess with like Big Al at Alabama. You don't
mess around. No, you don't mess around with You see anybody messing around
with a blue blob. You see anybody messing around with mister Red. Does
you see have the bear cat on the bear cat? I've seen the bear
cat, not the live one, but the mascot. Well no, Rick
Taylor showed me the real bear cat at the zoo. Well that's true.
They still got it. They're ugly looking animals. Well, but don't be
messing with them. No, I don't know, but I like to Xavier
Musketeer. Well, very nobody messes with him either. No, he's got
a sword being chop your head off. Correct, So we'll see what happens.
But I'm gonna talk to Wes Miller about giving some of his players some
free throw. You got to get You've got to get a hold of your
first cousin over there, John Cunningham the a D. He wants to meet
and meet you, and then go over to the fifth third arena and say,
hold on a minute, Wes, we're stopping practice. The Great American
is here. She's going to show you how to shoot free throws. Begin
with the legs, bingo, the legs. Now, remember in nineteen twenty
four, that New York Times report an hour ago said that men were not
going to have it any legs. By now, one hundred years later,
here we are. Radio may work. What's those things below my waist?
Commercial air travel likely will not occur because too many planes crashed. Bicycles will
be the future, and you and I will vacation on adjoining planets. Now,
I don't want to go to Mercury or Venus. It's like a thousand
degrees. Yeah, you don't want to go ours. It's a bit chilly
there at night. Yeah, I guess the moon. I got to call
it Dean Regus check it out with him, because I don't think traveling to
either planet makes a lot of sense. I might be wrong. The red
planet it's cold, and then the farther out you go, it's colder.
Right. Let me ask my girlfriend here, maybe she knows o tanyo or
calling in? What is the average temperature on Mercury? I got this on
the web. The average temperature is two two hundred degrees. I think that's
a bit uh. Well, you better get out the good sunscreen on that
one. And then Venus, let's check it out. That was a good
record back then. What is the average temperature on Venus? Now that's a
bit toasty too. That's like the broiler times too. Ketch Mark would have
a field day at that eight and fifty seventy. I don't think you need
salt trucks and that on Mercury or Venus. Don't go outside, that's all
right, and you have tempstar quality. You can feel air conditioning right there
on those two planets, Andy book, If you've go to be a billionaire
Bingo, how many areas well? Was it again? Naked? Eighty five
below zero on Mars? Forget it. That's that's another They will stay here.
Let's just stay here. Negative three hundred and seventy five. Now that's
a bit chili too. You might need a little bit of tempstar are Bengo
Bingo quality? You can feel? I'm not sure we're gonna be visiting other
planets anytime soon. I don't think so. I think we're gonna stay here
on a little your little blue marble, little marble. Now, where's the
rock? I was gonna talk about this drunken mass. I don't know a
Notre Dame is a dwarf. He's drunk. Oh, I thought you said
he was drunk. No, not rock You didn't drink. Okay, except
Delta eight something like that. Let's see, let's see they got what they
what they got here on the show. I can't even read his writing.
I don't know. I have no idea. All right, give me out
of the students' da six, Eddie and Rocky. We got pizza waiting for
us, supposedly, and you'll be having some, won't you. That's stupid?
Savior. Tonight plays Creighton with the Oracle in Creighton, the home of

you you honor of the passing of the great Georgia mascot and don't mess with
the ascot who has crossed the rainbow bridge. Today we leave you with the
immortal words of the Stood Report. We kept the lead from the first day
of the season till the last day of the season. And uh, we're
the best team in Natalie West and hopefully we can play well in the off
season. In the bull season, you played more than I know who my
predictions true. Somebody got drenched that mighty eyes gow hoofy hair. Boy.
There is what we didn't We don't man. I knew I wasn't going to
escape pretty good. That's when I predicted a red spector Imara. Yeah,
I know, they got me. They got me. You all enjoy an
us? Yes? Thanks again? Yes? And I predicted Savior would win
the National Invitation Tournament two years ago in Madison Square Garden. What happened?
They won? And I predicted that the Bengals would win the AFC Championship two
years ago. What happened? They won. I predicted Kentucky basketball with Rick
Patino would go back to back and win national titles. What happened, victory,
they won. All I can say is my prediction is generally you're accurate.
