Speaker 1: Five o five. I think about k r C the
Speaker 1: talk station Happy Monday.
Speaker 2: It was a.
Speaker 3: Damn hot, real hot?
Speaker 2: Were you born on the Sun's damn hot?
Speaker 1: If I had to place a wager on which sound
Speaker 1: by Joe would start to show it this morning, probably
Speaker 1: a lot of money wouldn't have been going on that one. Uh.
Speaker 1: Welcome to fifty five Caursy Morning Show. Brian Tima s
Speaker 1: right here, hope, but it had a wonderful weekend in
Speaker 1: spite of the heat, and the heat which continued. You
Speaker 1: think the world was coming to an absolute end. Oh
Speaker 1: maybe it is World War three breaking out, don't know.
Speaker 4: Uh.
Speaker 1: Anyhow, coming up in the fifty five Carsy Morns Show,
Speaker 1: it is money Meaning at seven we hear from the
Speaker 1: former Vice Mayor of the City of Cincinnati, Christopher Smith.
Speaker 1: Event for the Smith Event, and we'll enjoy learning together
Speaker 1: what's on his mind money money with Brian James today,
Speaker 1: how the Iranian attack will affect the market, oil prices, inflation, stocks,
Speaker 1: US dollar dollars and cats Let me together. The round's
Speaker 1: already threatened and voted to shut the Straightah horror moves down.
Speaker 1: They suggest that would increase oil price per barreled twenty
Speaker 1: dollars or twenty dollars sending oil north of one hundred,
Speaker 1: although they carry significant risk doing that. We can talk
Speaker 1: about some of that and the impacts of whether or
Speaker 1: not that will happen, and what might happen to the
Speaker 1: Iranian Navy in the event they try to do that.
Speaker 1: Keep FED rates right where they are, that's what the
Speaker 1: Fed's doing. And finally, new drop dead date for when
Speaker 1: so security runs out of money. Frightening prospect because it's
Speaker 1: sooner rather than later. This has been a problem that
Speaker 1: we have seen coming for years and years and years.
Speaker 1: And you know, Congress did anything, doesn't want to do anything.
Speaker 1: Third Reil politics can't not. Oh my god, I won't
Speaker 1: get voted back into office if I if I try
Speaker 1: to fix the thing. You know, say what you want
Speaker 1: about whatever needs to be done. The problem is obvious
Speaker 1: and it's looming large and getting closer talking about cutting
Speaker 1: the benefits. You look at your current so it's a
Speaker 1: security check and or what that sheet is which I
Speaker 1: just got mine recently, the sheet which tells you what
Speaker 1: you're going to get on a monthly basis depending on
Speaker 1: when you choose to retire. Reduce that by twenty five percent. Basically,
Speaker 1: that's looking to be what is going to happen in
Speaker 1: so far as SOS security is concerned. So twenty five
Speaker 1: percent less than what you're getting now or what they're
Speaker 1: telling you you're going to get when you do retire,
Speaker 1: and maybe even worse than that. So you got to
Speaker 1: do something, You got to act or not, as the
Speaker 1: case may be. Let's see what Jonathan Turley had to say.
Speaker 1: Because of course Donald Trump and Congressman Massi, you're going
Speaker 1: back and forth Congress of mass He does not believe
Speaker 1: that the strike was legal constitutional. He's made this statement
Speaker 1: out loud before the calling for a vote in Congress
Speaker 1: warpowers act. Whether or not that were to pass or not,
Speaker 1: Whether or not people are on Congress and Messy's side
Speaker 1: or not doesn't matter. Congress never acts and it likes
Speaker 1: to not have to act and let the president go
Speaker 1: ahead and go on his own. So really, whether or
Speaker 1: not Donald Trump's actions were constitutional or not, it just
Speaker 1: doesn't matter, and history is a guide on that. Jonathan Turley,
Speaker 1: he's a brilliant analyst legal analysis, writes for Fox News
Speaker 1: all the time. The Democrats in Washington talking again about
Speaker 1: impeachment's politician put it through, expressing outrage over President Donald
Speaker 1: Trump attacking Iran without prior authorization to Congress. For Costablanca,
Speaker 1: friends out there. One of my favorite movies of all time,
Speaker 1: Claude Raine's the police lieutenant there shocked. I'm shocked, shocked,
Speaker 1: that's gambling going on here and use that as a
Speaker 1: mechanism to close down the bar run by Humphrey Bogart's character.
Speaker 1: And then someone comes up to him your winnings, sir.
Speaker 1: So of course he knew there was gambling going on there.
Speaker 1: He was gambling himself. So that's the point that it'
Speaker 1: turley making, he says. The Claude Raines school of constitutional law,
Speaker 1: where politicians are shocked, shocked that Trump is using the
Speaker 1: authority that they accepted in democratic predecessors, and he puts
Speaker 1: out a whole litany of him. There's in multiple arguments
Speaker 1: about the constitutional role of Congress in connection with this
Speaker 1: bomb dropping. Nevertheless, Democratic members are now calling for impeachment,
Speaker 1: while others are declaring the attacks on unconstitutional sentimentorari. Leader
Speaker 1: Chuck Schumer particularly shocked that Trump took the action and
Speaker 1: is calling for a vote under the war powers Act
Speaker 1: Schumer and insisted that no president his words, should be
Speaker 1: allowed to unilaterally march this nation to something as consequential
Speaker 1: as war, with erratic threats and no strategy. That is
Speaker 1: a statement from House Minority Leader. Hawking efforts, well, I'm sorry.
Speaker 1: He issued a similar statement, probably verbadim analogous to the
Speaker 1: Schumer statement. I just quoted Shimmer, the same politician who
Speaker 1: was silent or supportive in earlier unilateral attacks by Democratic presidents.
Speaker 1: In twenty eleven, Obama approved a massive military campaign against Libya.
Speaker 1: Jonathan Turley said, I represented a bipartisan group of members
Speaker 1: of Congress challenging that action. We were unsuccessful, as were
Speaker 1: such prior challenges. He said, I've long criticized the abandonment
Speaker 1: of the clear language of the Constitution on the declaration
Speaker 1: of wars. Only eleven such declarations have been made in
Speaker 1: our history. That has not happened since World War Two
Speaker 1: in nineteen forty two. Over one hundred and twenty five
Speaker 1: military campaigns have spanned from Korea to Vietnam, Afghanistan, and Iraq.
Speaker 1: It is not a rule honored solely in the breach.
Speaker 1: Democrats were supportive when Clinton launched Cruise missile attacks under
Speaker 1: Operation Infinite Reach on two continents. In August of nineteen,
Speaker 1: he ordered attacks on locations and Khartoon and sued on
Speaker 1: coast Province in Afghanistan. Warpowers Actor has always been controversial
Speaker 1: and largely ineffectual. Presidents have long asserted the inherent powers
Speaker 1: to conduct such attacks under their article to authority as
Speaker 1: the designated commander in chief of the armed Forces. The
Speaker 1: War Powers Act requires the President to inform Congress within
Speaker 1: forty eight hours in a written notice to the Speaker
Speaker 1: of the House of Representatives and the President pro time
Speaker 1: of the Senate of the action well when the action
Speaker 1: is widely reported in the press that moment it happens.
Speaker 1: It seems to be a bit of a formality, but
Speaker 1: President Trump reportedly did immediately notify Congress after the attack
Speaker 1: under the War Powers Act. Warpowers Act further bars the
Speaker 1: use of armed forces in such conflict for more than
Speaker 1: sixty days without congressional authorization for use of military force.
Speaker 1: That will be the authorization of use of military force
Speaker 1: that only this action has been Trump's action in bombing
Speaker 1: the Iranian nuclear facilities. He's relying on the nineteen ninety
Speaker 1: one that allowed US to well start bombing all kinds
Speaker 1: of targets in the Middle East post nine to eleven.
Speaker 1: That's what Congressman wentz Or, a former Congressman Winstrop was
Speaker 1: making the point of when he was on the program
Speaker 1: last week. That thing's still in effect, and Iran falls
Speaker 1: within the designated group of people supporting terrorism, So you
Speaker 1: can drop bombs on the various nuclear installations under the
Speaker 1: nineteen ninety one aum off. That's one argument anyway. Presidents
Speaker 1: have long maintained the right to deploy military assets unilaterally
Speaker 1: without congressional approval to address imminent threats, all the way
Speaker 1: back to President Thomas Jefferson, who did so when he
Speaker 1: went to war with the Barbary pirates at the start
Speaker 1: of the nineteenth century. Residents have also routinely ignored the
Speaker 1: War Powers Act when it limited their ability to conduct
Speaker 1: four military operations. Back in nineteen ninety nine, Bill Clinton
Speaker 1: ignored this sixty day deadline and continued to bomb forces
Speaker 1: in Kosovo. His actions were also challenged, but the court
Speaker 1: in Campbellvie, Clinton just shrugged off the violation and said
Speaker 1: it was a nonjudicical political question. In responding to the
Speaker 1: current demands, Trump could look at a curious ally. Hillary Clinton,
Speaker 1: Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton pushed for unilateral attacks during
Speaker 1: the Obama administration. She dismissed the need to consult, let
Speaker 1: alone secure authorization from Congress. In March twenty eleven, Clinton
Speaker 1: testified that there was no need for such consultation and
Speaker 1: declared that the administration would ignore a sixty day limit
Speaker 1: on unauthorized military actions. Obama also defied the War Powers
Speaker 1: Resolution on Syria. He actually did ask for congressional authorization
Speaker 1: to take military action in that country in twenty thirteen,
Speaker 1: but Congress refused to approve it. He did it anyway,
Speaker 1: Congress expressly denying authorization for the introduction of the United
Speaker 1: States Armed Forces. Both Obama and Trump did precisely that
Speaker 1: Trump was wise to notify Congress. You notice that when
Speaker 1: you look back at history like this, and it's just
Speaker 1: such stark reality of what happened before, and the screaming
Speaker 1: and yelling and wailing and the national teeth about Trump
Speaker 1: doing exactly what his predecessors have done, setting the stage
Speaker 1: for this lucy goosey reality we have when it comes
Speaker 1: to war making. It's pretty amazing. And note that nothing
Speaker 1: happened there was no consequence for these prior uses of
Speaker 1: military force without congressional approval. People scream, people wailed, people
Speaker 1: gnash teeth. The actually passed resolution denying the authorization, and
Speaker 1: yet the presidents went ahead and did it anyway with
Speaker 1: no consequence. Fact to Turlie, Trump was wise to notify
Speaker 1: Congress and is currently in compliance with War Powers Act. However,
Speaker 1: what occurs after that is anybody's guess. The War Paras
Speaker 1: Act and the Authorization for Use of Military Force have
Speaker 1: been paper tigers for decades, and most in Congress wanted
Speaker 1: it that way. Politicians long ago abandoned the responsibilities to
Speaker 1: declare war. What remains has been little more than political theater, Amen, Jonathan.
Speaker 1: Even under the WPA, Trump would have sixty days to
Speaker 1: prosecute this war and another thirty days to draw down
Speaker 1: forces without congressional approval. The court in that case I
Speaker 1: mentioned before, Campbell versus Clinton, noted that even if Clinton
Speaker 1: violated the WPA by continuing operations after the sixty day period,
Speaker 1: he was technically in compliance by withdrawing forces before the
Speaker 1: end of the ninety day period. That's an additional thirty
Speaker 1: day drawdown period. Trump could likely prosecute this campaign in
Speaker 1: ninety days. Indeed, if he goes beyond the ninety days,
Speaker 1: we would likely be facing a potential global war with
Speaker 1: retaliatory strikes on both sides. In such an environment, very
Speaker 1: unlikely the Congress would withhold support for our ongoing operations
Speaker 1: in the meantime. Calls for impeachment are absurd given the
Speaker 1: prior actions of presidents using this very authority. Once again,
Speaker 1: some Democrats appear to be intent on applying a different
Speaker 1: set of rules for impeaching Trump than any of his predecessors.
Speaker 1: Trump can cite both history and case law and allowing
Speaker 1: presidents to take such actions. At most. The line over
Speaker 1: the War Powers is murky. The framers wanted impeachment to
Speaker 1: be based on bright line rules in establishing high crimes
Speaker 1: and misdemeanors. This is all part of the Claude Raine
Speaker 1: school of constitutional law. Members will once again express their
Speaker 1: shock and disgust that the use of the same military
Speaker 1: authority that they once accepted from prior presidents Trump has
Speaker 1: a great number of risks in this action from global
Speaker 1: military and economic consequences. The War Powers Act is not
Speaker 1: one of them. If history is any measure it, I mean,
Speaker 1: you know, you can argue Trump, and Trump's got his arguments.
Speaker 1: As Turtley illustrates, it doesn't answer the real, the constitutional question,
Speaker 1: which of course has been dodged. It's like the five
Speaker 1: d's of dodgeball when it comes to that. And I'm
Speaker 1: in full agreement with Massy or with Jonathan Turley's observation,
Speaker 1: this is exactly what congressional members want. They don't want
Speaker 1: any responsibility for dealing with what power has been delegated
Speaker 1: to them under the Constitution. We'll just play fast and
Speaker 1: loose with it. Hence the nineteen seventy three War Powers Act,
Speaker 1: which again has never been subjected to constitutional scrutiny, even
Speaker 1: though it delegates authorities specifically resting in the legislative branch
Speaker 1: to the executive branch. There you go five three, seven, four, nine, fifty,
Speaker 1: eight hundred and eighty two to three top pound, five
Speaker 1: fifty on AT and T phones. Much larger and bigger
Speaker 1: problems facing US. I think given the UH open borders
Speaker 1: that we have here, lots of people raising red flags
Speaker 1: about that. Sleeper cells, for example, are one critical problem
Speaker 1: we're facing right now five eighteen, Right now fifty five
Speaker 1: kr SE detalk station.
Speaker 5: Fifty five karc.
Speaker 1: Our h D five KRCD talk station at temperature jump
Speaker 1: it all over. I show up this morning seventy three,
Speaker 1: then it tells me it's seventy seven, and now it's
Speaker 1: say in seventy four, Todd if you check on your
Speaker 1: loved ones and make sure you go to fifty five
Speaker 1: kr sea dot com. Of course, Tech Fighter with Dave
Speaker 1: Hatter a particularly eye opening segment with Dave Hatter revealing
Speaker 1: that sixteen billion actual passwords have been hacked and some
Speaker 1: strong you know, encouragement case get a level of desperation
Speaker 1: and trying to help people to save them from themselves.
Speaker 1: Get a password manager. He did point out one that
Speaker 1: he uses creates really complex passwords that you couldn't possibly remember.
Speaker 1: He had like twelve fifteen thirty different sites you go
Speaker 1: to do every single one is supposed to have a
Speaker 1: different password for it because a lot of people use
Speaker 1: the same password for every single site that they have,
Speaker 1: creating a problem, especially if your password gets hacked. Hackers
Speaker 1: know that a lot of people use the same password,
Speaker 1: and then they'll jump around to all kinds of different websites,
Speaker 1: including your bank site, and liberate you from your assets.
Speaker 1: It'd be pretty easy to do if they have your password.
Speaker 1: So heed his advice and moving away from the bombing.
Speaker 1: And you know, I'll tell you what, say what you
Speaker 1: will about that bombing. Wildly of you is wildly successful.
Speaker 1: Not quite sure what Iran is going to do other than,
Speaker 1: you know, make good on their their threat to cut
Speaker 1: off the Straight of Horror Moves, which is described by
Speaker 1: the Wall Street Journal as a major gambit, so they
Speaker 1: might get away from it. Get away with it for
Speaker 1: a little while and look at the map when you
Speaker 1: see the Straight of Hormoves and realize that so much
Speaker 1: of the oil flows through that particular little narrow alleyway
Speaker 1: two miles, they said, they iron kid serve. We'll do
Speaker 1: some short term damage. Shipped patches through the strait is
Speaker 1: two miles at its narrowest and vulnerable to sea mines.
Speaker 1: Say Irankant harassed ships with its naval forces. They got
Speaker 1: those high speed patrol boats and as well drones and
Speaker 1: missiles that they could fire from on shore. But at
Speaker 1: least as far as the Journal's analysis, US has ample
Speaker 1: navy resources in the region that can clear the mines
Speaker 1: in pretty short order and of course eliminate the entire
Speaker 1: Iranian Navy if it tries to shut down the straight
Speaker 1: because they have little boats and we have big boats
Speaker 1: with giant guns. So oil futures are dropping around. But
Speaker 1: downplaying that threat just slightly, but just going back to
Speaker 1: a story that has unrelated to anything else, like that
Speaker 1: recent study. Thinking of Dave Hatter who talks about you know,
Speaker 1: artificial intelligence and chat GPT all the time, and I
Speaker 1: actually have tried it out and is pretty amazing. But
Speaker 1: it takes the need for you to exercise your brain
Speaker 1: power and does it for you. So MIT Media Lab
Speaker 1: did a study on exactly this, and it's pretty much
Speaker 1: I guess you could come up. You could know the
Speaker 1: conclusions of the study before even hearing them. Findings over
Speaker 1: there suggest that a long prolonged use of the language
Speaker 1: model could negatively impact an individual's critical thinking abilities, especially
Speaker 1: in young younger adults. Study involved dividing subjection into three groups,
Speaker 1: those using chat GPT, those using Google's search engine, which
Speaker 1: requires you to find the information and then you know,
Speaker 1: put it together, and then what they called a brain
Speaker 1: only group that relies solely on the individual's knowledge. Each
Speaker 1: participant's brain activity was monitored using EEG's electro and cephalobgraph
Speaker 1: feed results described as shocking. Subject to use chat GPT
Speaker 1: over a few months consistently demonstrated the lowest brain engagement
Speaker 1: and underperformed at neural linguistic behavioral levels. Say Initially, the
Speaker 1: chat GPT group utilized the LM also to ask structural
Speaker 1: questions for their essays, but by the end of the
Speaker 1: study they were more likely to simply copy and paste
Speaker 1: the generated content, in other words, not exercising one's individual
Speaker 1: You know, it rewrites. You know, when you scratch things out,
Speaker 1: you rewrite it. Well, chat GPT said this, and I
Speaker 1: don't like the way that's phrase using your own brain
Speaker 1: power to some degree, but they ended up just saying, nah,
Speaker 1: that's fine. The Google search engine group showed moderate brain engagement,
Speaker 1: while the brain only group exhibited the strongest most wide
Speaker 1: ranging neural networks, suggesting that rely on lllms like chat
Speaker 1: GPT can have detrimental effects on the user's cognitive function
Speaker 1: and over time. Shocking no one. I just think we're
Speaker 1: all getting just basically dumber because of the Internet. Generally speaking,
Speaker 1: you don't have to remember anything. It's always the answer
Speaker 1: is right there here. Let me look it up. What
Speaker 1: was the phrase? In that song that you were you're
Speaker 1: talking about with your wife and like, what was the
Speaker 1: name of that song? It's like I can't remember. Don't
Speaker 1: turn back into your your your files in your head.
Speaker 1: Just bough out the smartphone and get the answer, get
Speaker 1: the question answered right away, and move on with your life.
Speaker 1: The more we do that, the dumber we're all going
Speaker 1: to get. And this is just something that that study suggests.
Speaker 1: So there you go. Five twenty seven fifty five KRSIT
Speaker 1: Talk Station, Local stories coming up. Alternatively, phone calls are
Speaker 1: always welcome here in the morning show regardless. I'll be
Speaker 1: right back.
Speaker 6: This is fifty five KRC and iHeartRadio Station.
Speaker 3: Join the roads when they face them.
Speaker 1: Fifty five KRSD Talk Station by one three seven hundred
Speaker 1: eight two three talk. It's time to hear from Tom. Tom.
Speaker 1: Hope you at a wonderful week and welcome back to
Speaker 1: the program, my friend.
Speaker 7: Oh man, it's gonna be sweltering in the Jays all.
Speaker 7: I can't stand this heat. I'm not a fan of
Speaker 7: the heat. I even grew up in South Florida and
Speaker 7: I can't stand it. Yeah, yeah, it's not it's no good.
Speaker 7: It's no good.
Speaker 1: Yeah, People complain about sub zero conditions the middle of winter.
Speaker 7: I hate it.
Speaker 1: I hate it, I hate it. And then you get
Speaker 1: the summertime. You get humidity coupled with north of ninety
Speaker 1: degree heat, and people hate it, hate it, hated. You
Speaker 1: can't win. Moving target here.
Speaker 7: Somewhere for about three and a half days in like April,
Speaker 7: it's really nice, and then you get it again in
Speaker 7: like October. Yeah, that's it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you're right.
Speaker 3: Everybody is happy.
Speaker 7: For those like seven or eight days for the year.
Speaker 7: Otherwise somebody's bitching, no doubt about it. Your your study
Speaker 7: there is obvious. It's obvious. It's like, that's the Captain
Speaker 7: obvious study. You don't have to use a muscle or
Speaker 7: your brain cells. They're just gonna sit there and and
Speaker 7: they're gonna get weak and you're not you know, you're
Speaker 7: just not gonna use them and and uh, yeah, you're
Speaker 7: just gonna become more and more stupid pretty much. Uh
Speaker 7: and and and the problem with that is is that
Speaker 7: you revert to using your emotions more. You react to
Speaker 7: your emotions, and you don't think. Uh, you don't use
Speaker 7: critical thinking, you don't stop and wait, wait a minute,
Speaker 7: hold on, what's the consequence of this going to be
Speaker 7: if I do this and and uh, you basically you
Speaker 7: turn into a Democrat, which is it's no good for anybody.
Speaker 7: So and and I, I mean I that's kind of
Speaker 7: a crack and a sarcastic remark, but there's a lot
Speaker 7: of truth to that, because if you look at what
Speaker 7: did what a lot of the Democrats are screaming about
Speaker 7: and hollering about and getting all set about, it's all emotions.
Speaker 7: It's just it's there's no common sense rooted in in
Speaker 7: the and like the platform of the Democrat Party, at
Speaker 7: everything that they are, that they stand for, everything that
Speaker 7: they rail against it like you guys are being stupid,
Speaker 7: and and we just gotta we just got to stay
Speaker 7: the course with what we believe to be the right
Speaker 7: thing and keep putting people in there and electing people
Speaker 7: who are gonna use some common sense. We got, we
Speaker 7: got everybody sallible. Everybody's gonna make mistakes. I'm not I'm
Speaker 7: not happy with Obviously, we've talked about this a nauseum
Speaker 7: about what all the Republicans are doing. They make they
Speaker 7: make plenty of mistakes, but you know, if you add
Speaker 7: it up all together, there's no way it's gonna be
Speaker 7: okay for Democrats to be in charge because they have
Speaker 7: no common sense to their to their side, they everything
Speaker 7: that they're for is goes completely against what what those
Speaker 7: of us who use our brains, you know, understand is reality.
Speaker 1: So what I guess amid all this, I mean, I'm
Speaker 1: hearing some very coherent statements. Specifically, they do tend to
Speaker 1: rant and scream a name, call a lot, and their policy,
Speaker 1: the Democrat plat presently as it currently exists, seems to
Speaker 1: be just simply saying no to anything Donald Trump or
Speaker 1: the Republicans proposed. That's without any analysis as to the
Speaker 1: value of any given proposal or articulating specific reasons why
Speaker 1: it's bad. It's just a scream, Oh my god, you
Speaker 1: know you're taking away medicaidive people are going to starve
Speaker 1: and die. Well, if that's not no, that's not true.
Speaker 1: I mean, give it a thoughtful analysis. And also, while
Speaker 1: you're screaming about the efforts of the Republicans to try
Speaker 1: to save the program and get able bodied adults off
Speaker 1: of a program that wasn't created for their benefit of
Speaker 1: the first place, explain to us the Democrat proposal to
Speaker 1: save it, like social Security. Just screaming and ranting about
Speaker 1: Social Security and you can't touch it is gotten as
Speaker 1: closer to the day when they're not going to have
Speaker 1: enough money coming in to pay for the program, it's
Speaker 1: rapidly approaching. Have you got an explanation of how you're
Speaker 1: going to fix it? Do you have a platform?
Speaker 2: No?
Speaker 1: What you hear is just screaming and wailing and gnashing
Speaker 1: of tea with nothing to run on. And that's okay.
Speaker 1: If they have nothing to run on, that's okay with
Speaker 1: me because that means people won't vote for them.
Speaker 7: But let's ho so. But unfortunately they are. They are
Speaker 7: pandering to just the you know, the side of our
Speaker 7: voters that all they care about is their emotions. That's
Speaker 7: all that matters to them. And we've got to reach
Speaker 7: those people too. You got people that you know who
Speaker 7: who vote Democrat just blindly anti Trump everything and and
Speaker 7: oh no change, no dictators. I mean, you got to
Speaker 7: find a way to reach these people and somehow or
Speaker 7: other get them to understand, don't vote Democrats.

Speaker 1: I'm at Evan CE five forty on a Monday, and
Speaker 1: a happy one to you. Christopher Smith min at seventy
Speaker 1: twenty for the smither vent Money Monday with Brian James,
Speaker 1: a Hi five and phone calls anytime you want to
Speaker 1: call in Yeah on those two segments five eight hundred
Speaker 1: eighty two to three Talk Jay, thanks for holding over
Speaker 1: the break.
Speaker 3: Welcome back, Hey, Thanks Brian. Hey.
Speaker 4: Wanted to build on your comments about artificial intelligence. I
Speaker 4: recently had a client who asked me to create a resume.
Speaker 4: First time. I had to dust that thing off and
Speaker 4: I don't know how long. So I really hated the
Speaker 4: idea of doing it. So I got on one of
Speaker 4: these sites that helped you put together your CV, and
Speaker 4: of course it had artificial intelligence help. So I laid out,
Speaker 4: I did the best I could, fed it into this
Speaker 4: thing and it was when I first read it I
Speaker 4: was blown away because under my work history, let's say
Speaker 4: I would have three bullet points for each place that
Speaker 4: I worked. It turned it into five and it was
Speaker 4: like an A plus plus until I looked a little
Speaker 4: bit harder at it. About the second third time I
Speaker 4: went through it, I realized of the five bullets, the
Speaker 4: first two looked like a professional writer was awesome, took
Speaker 4: what I wrote and made it like ten times better.
Speaker 4: The third one wasn't really any better than what I wrote,
Speaker 4: And the last two looked like Kamala Harris wrote it.
Speaker 4: It was just pure word salad is just yeah, well,
Speaker 4: just regurgitated and repackaged what was the first three bullets.
Speaker 4: So I would tell young people out there, don't rely
Speaker 4: or anybody out here, don't rely on that thing. To
Speaker 4: just do it one percent, because I don't think you're
Speaker 4: going to.
Speaker 7: Get away with it.
Speaker 4: If I was reading that resume, I would have picked
Speaker 4: up on it that the last two bullets under the
Speaker 4: work history were just garbage and just taking up space,
Speaker 4: which doesn't really reflect well. No, at least in my experience,
Speaker 4: it wasn't as good as what is cracked up.
Speaker 1: To be well, any of the other the funny component
Speaker 1: of funny sad pathetic at the same time. You know,
Speaker 1: modern businesses, larger businesses I've been led to leave using
Speaker 1: artificial intelligence to review the resumes, to weed through, you know,
Speaker 1: the weed from the chaff. You know, no, this person's
Speaker 1: education background is not sufficient for what we're looking for,
Speaker 1: et cetera, et cetera. So it takes away that the
Speaker 1: need for an individual to actually go through a huge
Speaker 1: stack of resumes, most of which are lurking online and
Speaker 1: employment websites for someone to find. So in order to
Speaker 1: find the people who might be eligible, they use artificial intelligence.
Speaker 1: So it's AI looking at AI. Oh my god, garbage in,
Speaker 1: garbage out jays. Basically what this is coming down to.
Speaker 3: And don't vote Democrats.
Speaker 1: Okay, they're double it down. Good to hear from you, man.
Speaker 1: You can feel free to call it to In the meantime,
Speaker 1: even though the world's falling apart around us, we still
Speaker 1: have a stack. Is stupid, because I'm not going to
Speaker 1: let the problems of the world stand in the way
Speaker 1: of the lighter part of the five o'clock hour. So
Speaker 1: let's start in Florida. Got a woman recently arrested after
Speaker 1: several syringes and a fentanyl were found quote inside her
Speaker 1: person quote thirty four year old Jessicarina. That person stands
Speaker 1: accused of myriad crimes, including smuggling and controlled substance possession
Speaker 1: of fentanyl corner to the Flagler County Sheriff's Office records
Speaker 1: started out June fifteen, pulled over for a mismatched license
Speaker 1: plate allegedly assigned to a Ford car, but a fixed
Speaker 1: to her Chevy pickup driver's side seat belt also is
Speaker 1: dangling near the door. Accord to the charging affidavit. Deputy
Speaker 1: wrote that such seat belt is consistent with the driver
Speaker 1: not properly wearing their seat belt, and a traffic stop ensued,
Speaker 1: but the deputy said Renos seemed to be taking her
Speaker 1: time quote upon her activating my emergency lights and sirens,
Speaker 1: the vehicle tapped its breaks several times, but it continued
Speaker 1: to proceed without stopping for approximately thirty seconds, despite having
Speaker 1: several safe lit areas to pull over. While making contact
Speaker 1: with the driver, she stated that she was on the
Speaker 1: phone and was talking to her daughter, which is why
Speaker 1: she didn't immediately pull over. I then inquired if the
Speaker 1: female was the registered owner of the vehicle, and she
Speaker 1: said yes. While attempting to get the operator's driver's license,
Speaker 1: she stated that she does not have a license and
Speaker 1: has an upcoming court date regarding her driver's license suspension.
Speaker 1: The traffic stop apparently confirmed the license plate was on
Speaker 1: the wrong vehicle. Reno was driving with a lapsed registration
Speaker 1: and without insurance. When asked about her seatbelt, she alleged
Speaker 1: apologized for being in a rush. Following her Miranda rights,
Speaker 1: she allegedly admitted that she was aware of her suspended
Speaker 1: license and had an upcoming court date previously being caught driving.
Speaker 1: She also said that she had her friend's license plate
Speaker 1: after her own license plate, in her words, blew off
Speaker 1: her truck. Then came the drug component.
Speaker 3: Quote.
Speaker 1: Upon placing Jessica underarrest with the above noted criminal charges
Speaker 1: of female debuty was requested to perform a search incident
Speaker 1: to arrest. During that time time, it was explained to
Speaker 1: Jessica that if she had any other contraband on or
Speaker 1: inside her person, she'd face additional criminal charges if it
Speaker 1: was located at the inmate facility. She said she did not,
Speaker 1: then booked in the local jail that's where the drugs
Speaker 1: were found. According to the affidavit, the booking decty detective's
Speaker 1: discovered a black sock tucked into the area of Jessica's
Speaker 1: huh my words, not the one the affidavid. Within the
Speaker 1: black sock that he's located six capped syringes in a
Speaker 1: bag of white, powdery substance. While inquiring about the substance,
Speaker 1: she said it it was fentanyl. Utilized the mobile to
Speaker 1: detect fentanyl field test kick. The substance weighed proximately three
Speaker 1: grams total package weight two grams if fentanyl inside the package.
Speaker 1: Booked into the inmate facility, she initially stated that she
Speaker 1: forgot the items were in her person. However, she later
Speaker 1: stated that she was afraid to say it because you
Speaker 1: did not want to get sick. I suppose that would
Speaker 1: mean as a consequence of fentanyl withdrawal, ultimately booked in
Speaker 1: a multiple drug and driving related accounts, posted eleven thousand,
Speaker 1: five hundred dollars beyond and got out five forty six
Speaker 1: and seven fifty five care see de talk station. Get
Speaker 1: rid of the pain. Maybe I would recommend if you're
Speaker 1: dealing with hip pain, knee pain, joint pain, that arthritic pain.
Speaker 1: You've talked to your doctor. You've had enough steroid injections
Speaker 1: to satisfy you. I mean, you're done, You're over it.
Speaker 1: It don't last, and you got the surgery to being discussed.
Speaker 1: Why not take QC kinetics up on its free consultation
Speaker 1: and find out if these are these these treatment protocols
Speaker 1: are right for you. They may very well be. That's
Speaker 1: why there's a free consultation. They explain their regenerative treatments
Speaker 1: which takes your own bodies healing power and helps heal
Speaker 1: and restore your damaged tissue. Well respected protocols include potent
Speaker 1: and powerful cellular level treatments. They've helped tens of thousands
Speaker 1: of people, many here right here in the Cincinnati area.
Speaker 1: So no masking the pain. They're going after the very
Speaker 1: sore it. So find out if you're a good candidate
Speaker 1: with the free consultation. Five one three eight four seven
Speaker 1: zero zero one nine five one three eight four seven
Speaker 1: zero zero one nine. That's five one three eight four
Speaker 1: seven zero zero one nine fifty five the talk station. Hey,
Speaker 1: if you're listening to me, five fifty one if you
Speaker 1: have KERR CV talk station, back to the stacktor stupid
Speaker 1: going to Iowa for this one. Not a lot of
Speaker 1: stupid coming out of Iowa.
Speaker 3: Iowa.
Speaker 1: Woman recently arrested for falsely reporting than the man she
Speaker 1: was supposed to go on a date with to the
Speaker 1: police because and she, in her words, got cold feet
Speaker 1: and didn't know how to tell him. Eighteen year old
Speaker 1: sam Maya Thomas no relation, supposed to go on a
Speaker 1: romantic date with a man she met through online dating app.
Speaker 1: When the date showed up on her doorstep, the young
Speaker 1: woman reportedly got cold feet and decided you didn't want
Speaker 1: anything to do with them with the date. So instead
Speaker 1: of simply ignoring him, making up some sort of excuse
Speaker 1: to cancel the date, or flat out telling the guy
Speaker 1: she didn't want to go out with him, she called
Speaker 1: nine to one one, made ridiculous story about the man
Speaker 1: banging on her door being in an abusive X with
Speaker 1: whom she was seven months pregnant, and asking police to
Speaker 1: have him removed. North Liberty woman told nine to one
Speaker 1: one that the man on her porch was threatening to hit, punch, kick,
Speaker 1: and stab her. Police dispatch a car to the location.
Speaker 1: Officers showed up to her house, didn't find an angry assailant,
Speaker 1: but a calm looking man leaving her property, and police
Speaker 1: stopped the man and asked him about his relationship with
Speaker 1: the eighteen year old woman. He said they just met
Speaker 1: a week prior to a dating Appum, we're supposed to
Speaker 1: go on a date that night. Conversation showed he was
Speaker 1: being honest and he really did just meet this female.
Speaker 1: But the man's led victim insisted that they'd known each
Speaker 1: other for two years and that she even was pregnant
Speaker 1: with his baby. She claimed that he'd been abusive through
Speaker 1: the relationship and shown up on her doorstep threatening to
Speaker 1: cause her physical harm. Police let her discovered that she
Speaker 1: had deleted some of her texts with her date to
Speaker 1: cover her tracks. Then, after repeating questioning, she admitted that
Speaker 1: she made the whole story up and that he was
Speaker 1: indeed a man that she recently met online idiots doing
Speaker 1: idiot things because that idio is yes, indeed, let us
Speaker 1: see here. Police dash cam video captured police officers struggling
Speaker 1: with a convicted jewel thief in an attempt to keep
Speaker 1: the man from swallowing stolen Tiffany diamonds worth more than
Speaker 1: three quarters of a million dollars. What Florida Highway Patrol
Speaker 1: video camera recorded this apprehension of Jathan Gilder, who was
Speaker 1: thirty two on I ten Guilder driving a rented Mitsubishi,
Speaker 1: was pulled over by troopers who had received the be
Speaker 1: on the Lookout alert from the Orlando Police investigating the
Speaker 1: robbery earlier that day at Tiffany in Company. His rap
Speaker 1: sheet includes a litany of jewelry robbery is suspected opposing
Speaker 1: as a representative of an NBA player interested in purchasing diamonds.
Speaker 1: After being shown in a private room, the man grabbed
Speaker 1: two sets of diamond earrings worth six hundred and nine thousand,
Speaker 1: five hundred dollars and one hundred and sixty thousand dollars respectively.
Speaker 8: Geez Louise.
Speaker 1: Anyway. After being pulled from his vehicle on handcuff, Gilder
Speaker 1: was being walked to a squad carmen. A trooper noticed
Speaker 1: that the detainee was talking with a closed mouth and
Speaker 1: was moving an object around using his tongue tongue phrasing
Speaker 1: mm hmm, as seen in the arrest video, which was released.
Speaker 1: Troopers repeatedly ordered him to open his mouth and spit
Speaker 1: out what was inside. You're gonna get tazed, one trooper
Speaker 1: warn another declaring he swallowed something phrasing as troopers grabbed
Speaker 1: his throat and jaw, Gilder, through gritted teeth, replied, I
Speaker 1: don't have to. When he was told to open his mouth,
Speaker 1: police initially thought he may have been swallowing illegal narcotics,
Speaker 1: notre than he was I had white matter on his lip.
Speaker 1: Gilder's was a rev which is described as a cold
Speaker 1: sore cream. Field test did not detect any illegal substances.
Speaker 1: When a search of guilders vehicle turned up tifty and
Speaker 1: company price tags and ear ring cards from the stolen jewelry,
Speaker 1: the trooper concluded he probably did swallow the ear rings.
Speaker 1: One of us scator wondered whether the diamonds would perforate
Speaker 1: something internally, resulting having to result in surgery, taking a
Speaker 1: local hospital, where refused treatment evaluation while stating the items
Speaker 1: he did not want his stomach to be X rayed.
Speaker 1: Subsequently hospitalized under guard. Guilder first refused to take any laxatives,
Speaker 1: claimed to be a practicing Muslim who would only eat
Speaker 1: after sundown and before sunrise due to it being the
Speaker 1: holiday of Ramadan. After two weeks, he passed the gems
Speaker 1: items cleaned by Tiffany Mastered jeweler, and eventually turned over
Speaker 1: to a company's security manager. Accord to the Policers Board,
Speaker 1: they said, the diamonds are presumably back on the market.
Speaker 1: When if you have to issue a warning to someone
Speaker 1: about that prior notice this fair disclosure. I'm with you, Joe.
Speaker 1: You pay six hundred and nine thousand dollars for a
Speaker 1: pair of earrings. You hope it hasn't been down that path.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, pulp fiction with Christopher walking in the watch
Speaker 1: good good recollection. Joe, don't go away. Got plenty to
Speaker 1: talk about and a warning that'll start keeping your eyes peeled. Folks,
Speaker 1: gonna get really dicey out there. I'll be right back.
Speaker 5: Co Hus happens fast, stay up to date at the
Speaker 5: top of the hour.
Speaker 3: Not gonna be complicated. It's gonna go very fast.
Speaker 9: Fifty five krs the talk station, just at the top
Speaker 9: of the hour, check in. Oh god, we'll tell you
Speaker 9: every day you need to know. Fifty five krc the
Speaker 9: talk station.
Speaker 1: The shot at six or six, I think about RCV
Speaker 1: talk station. You try to have Pappy Monday. Didn't get
Speaker 1: any local stories this morning, but like six articles, all
Speaker 1: of which involved shootings, and Gesture just sported me he
Speaker 1: had another one another shooting. I guess this morning, hospitalizing
Speaker 1: two women. But it's safe to go downtown, right, Joe?
Speaker 1: Now what after Parvall said, don't worry about it five
Speaker 1: one three seven fifty hundred eight two three talk. And
Speaker 1: that's just the random acts of violence from crazy people
Speaker 1: on the street waving guns around and just randomly shooting
Speaker 1: people for a particular particular reason apparently, But what if
Speaker 1: there was a particular reason they heard? The State departments
Speaker 1: issued a global travel war in the United States. This
Speaker 1: in the aftermath, of course, our bombing of the various
Speaker 1: nuclear sites in Iran. Ron doesn't really have any air
Speaker 1: craft left to defended space. Those are going to be ongoing.
Speaker 1: Those strikes, of course, most notably launched by the Israelis,
Speaker 1: but we we did an assist on the bunker busters,
Speaker 1: and of course iron Is vowed retaliation in the form
Speaker 1: of maybe closing the Strait of horror moves and maybe
Speaker 1: just apparently announcing a global ghot against the United States
Speaker 1: and its interest. So you got to worry if you're traveling,
Speaker 1: most notably and particularly hotbed areas, ones that probably would
Speaker 1: come to your mind immediately. But now we have the
Speaker 1: the concern over domestic problems here, major US cities on
Speaker 1: high alert after aristracts from Ronnie nuclear facilities. We've got
Speaker 1: New York issuing and a lot of cities issuing virtually
Speaker 1: identical warnings. It's because the Department of Homeland Security has
Speaker 1: suggested that we may be in for a real world
Speaker 1: to hurt thanks to the Joe Biden open border situation.
Speaker 1: Who in the hell came in our country? And who
Speaker 1: are the two million gataways? Tom Holman going on a
Speaker 1: tear on that the other day. Anyway, New York issued
Speaker 1: this following statement, which mirror is the ones that were
Speaker 1: issued in other major cities, including Los Angeles and Miami.
Speaker 1: We're tracking the situation, unfolding it around out of an
Speaker 1: abundance of caution. We're deploying additional resources too, religious cultural
Speaker 1: and diplomatic sites across New York City, and our coordinating
Speaker 1: with our federal partners, will continue to monitor for any
Speaker 1: potential impact in New York City. Again, comparable announcements from
Speaker 1: you know, mayor bass out in Los Angeles and Miami.
Speaker 1: Dade Police Department also says they're actively monitoring the situation,
Speaker 1: increasing patrols throughout the county. But note you have limited resources.
Speaker 1: We always have limited law enforcement resources. So if they
Speaker 1: focus their attention of religious, culture and diplomatic sites, what
Speaker 1: about that power station that's down the street in near neighborhood.
Speaker 1: What about American military bases? Now, you may recall the
Speaker 1: and coup that the Ukrainians were able to pull off,
Speaker 1: setting up and launching drones from within the interior of Russia,
Speaker 1: much to the surprise of the Russian military. You may
Speaker 1: not also note that Israel was able to load up
Speaker 1: some cell phones and some walkie talkies with explosives and
Speaker 1: blowing up a bunch of It's a terrorist over. I
Speaker 1: believe that was Amas. Get my organizations a little confused
Speaker 1: these days. Of course, the military strike itself that Israel launched,
Speaker 1: a lot of which came from within the interior of Iran,
Speaker 1: much to the surprise of the Iranians. But what about
Speaker 1: the United States. There's an interesting article and I'll give
Speaker 1: credit to the Epic Epoch depending on how you like
Speaker 1: to pronounce it, Epoch dot com, Good Place, Epoch Times
Speaker 1: dot com, Epic Andrew Thornberg doing the analysis on this one,
Speaker 1: pointing out US military now prioritizing the protection of its
Speaker 1: bases here in the United States from drone attacks, noting
Speaker 1: the ones that I mentioned before, these attacks from the
Speaker 1: interior of the country, which came out of complete nowhere
Speaker 1: for the least of the local officials. US military leaders
Speaker 1: increasingly concerns that similar attacks, which leverage low cost commercial
Speaker 1: drones against ex expensive weapons systems, could pose a lasting
Speaker 1: threat to bases in critical infrastructure throughout our entire country.
Speaker 1: And think of all the critical infrastructure I mentioned the
Speaker 1: power station plant down the street. A commercial drone, you know,
Speaker 1: hooked up with some sort of explosive device, fly it
Speaker 1: right on in there and blow it up, be in
Speaker 1: and out and no time, wouldn't it. We got a
Speaker 1: lot of crazies out there in the streets. US military
Speaker 1: leaders concerned about similar attacks, they point out how to
Speaker 1: defend them is very complicated. First off, all the states
Speaker 1: have different rules regarding the use of drones. And then
Speaker 1: if you look at overseas military installments that they're allowed
Speaker 1: to identify with with drones approaching the base before any
Speaker 1: potential harm can occur, military lacks that authority here in
Speaker 1: the United States unless the drones directly enter a facility's airspace.
Speaker 1: But even then, they point out, the options are limited.
Speaker 1: Use of kinetic symptoms that would simply shoot down a
Speaker 1: drone are out of the question. American soil corn to
Speaker 1: military personnel. One, they're not cost effective. Two running the
Speaker 1: risk of injuring civilians and damaging property when the debris
Speaker 1: falls of the ground, which no one cares about. In
Speaker 1: foreign military basis, lack of counter drone systems also a
Speaker 1: problem that are customized to deal with emergent threat. It's
Speaker 1: the basis here in the United States. Again without endangering civilians,
Speaker 1: they say, Well, the military and federal government do have
Speaker 1: electromagnetic weapons that can knock out drones by interfering with
Speaker 1: the electrical and navigational systems. They're typically poorly suited to
Speaker 1: environment rich in aerial traffic because they affect all electronic
Speaker 1: systems within a given area. So here comes a drone,
Speaker 1: you aim your electronic jamming device at it, and you
Speaker 1: bring down a commercial airliner, for example, to such issue
Speaker 1: as laid bare March first, with more than a dozen
Speaker 1: flights on final approach to the Wagan National Airport outside
Speaker 1: Washington received false collision warnings, prompting at least six flights
Speaker 1: to abort their landings. FAA later stated that a false
Speaker 1: positive is caused by government testing of counter drone technology
Speaker 1: near the airport. He writes, because of that weakness in
Speaker 1: the system. The Army is now exploring the use of
Speaker 1: directed energy weapons and its counter drone operations, including variants
Speaker 1: of weapons using lasers, microwaves, particle and sound beams, all
Speaker 1: in development, but also presenting some challenges because of how
Speaker 1: much energy they use.
Speaker 3: According to the.
Speaker 1: Congressional Research Service, Pentagon's newest counter drone weapons would draw
Speaker 1: one hundred kilowatts of power to fire a laser in
Speaker 1: a counter drone capacit, which is described as more than
Speaker 1: the average household uses in three days and doesn't include
Speaker 1: the additional power requirements for cooling. The significant amount of
Speaker 1: heat generated by those weapons, making defending military installations on
Speaker 1: US soil from drone attacks an infrastructure problem as well
Speaker 1: as a defense problem. Secretary of the Army Daniel Driscoll
Speaker 1: spoke about that at a hearing recently, said the directed
Speaker 1: energy requirements for defending US bases and supply chains from
Speaker 1: future drone attacks simply can't be met with today's power systems.
Speaker 1: Like to throw in a mens interject my own personal
Speaker 1: mention on uh AH, solar panels and windmills can't provide
Speaker 1: the necessary power to make these things work, Driscoll said,
Speaker 1: for a lot of the tools that are coming out
Speaker 1: direct energy. For example, they have incredible energy requirements. He said,
Speaker 1: You're going to have to have spikes of energy come
Speaker 1: through the lines that are just not set up. Current
Speaker 1: technology not sufficient for it. It's a grid problem, folks.
Speaker 1: Key to solving the nation's direct energy issues is the
Speaker 1: creation of nuclear microreactors, small modular nuclear reactors that would
Speaker 1: generate power for an individual base and its weapon. The
Speaker 1: answer to all of our problems, the elusive answer in
Speaker 1: front of us, says Driscoll. Push toward nuclear power matches
Speaker 1: and executive vorder signed by Trump last month directing the
Speaker 1: Army to deploy nuclear reactor at a US base by
Speaker 1: twenty twenty eight. Accord to the Order of vanced nuclear
Speaker 1: reactors include small modular reactors, microreactors, and stationary mobile reactors
Speaker 1: that have the potential to deliver resilient, secure and reliable
Speaker 1: power to critical defense facilities and other mission capable resources. Well,
Speaker 1: you know, if you really need it to defend a
Speaker 1: military base, maybe you're going to get it. But us
Speaker 1: out here in the general population, we're not allowed to
Speaker 1: have them. For reasons unknown. Driscoll pointed out the drone
Speaker 1: sidings over US military installations have been increasing, and the
Speaker 1: defending the nations munitions and other supplies also going to
Speaker 1: require rethinking how they store their material. So if you
Speaker 1: look at the abilities cheap drones that contest logistical lines,
Speaker 1: we know that we have got to spread out our
Speaker 1: preposition stocks. In other words, you can't line up the
Speaker 1: airplanes at the military base. It makes them too easy
Speaker 1: to just hit them with drones. How do you protect them?
Speaker 1: He said, It's no longer going to be sufficient to
Speaker 1: have big warehouses with a lot of American equipment sitting
Speaker 1: as a target. Right They've tried to drone proof or
Speaker 1: facilities because cheap commercial drones are so readily available, by
Speaker 1: creating specialized enclosures. They cite Seymour Johnson Air Force Base
Speaker 1: in North Carolina. They're investigating the feasibility of erecting physical
Speaker 1: barriers to protect the F fifteen E fighter aircraft station
Speaker 1: there from being attacked by small drones. Well, you know,
Speaker 1: it's one of those things that they're working on it.
Speaker 1: But the threat is right now. Going back to the
Speaker 1: warnings about US terror sleeper cells, the United States officials
Speaker 1: sounding the alarm regarding the threat of terror backed sleeper
Speaker 1: cells in our country. This after the drone or after
Speaker 1: the B two bomber attack, Department Homeland Security released a
Speaker 1: new memos sounding the alarm to a heightened threat environment
Speaker 1: environment in the United States from the National Terrorism Advisory System.
Speaker 1: Didn't sit any specific threats, but well, the Iranians have
Speaker 1: threatened retaliation, and we know by everybody's agreement, the border
Speaker 1: crisis under the Biden administration exacerbated the threat of terror
Speaker 1: cells in the United States. And while maybe they might
Speaker 1: be activated now, Bolton says the likelihood of violent extremists
Speaker 1: in the homeland independently mobilizing to violent response to the
Speaker 1: conflict with likely increase if the Iranian leadership issued a
Speaker 1: religious ruling calling for a retaliatory violence against targets in
Speaker 1: the homeland. I'm not quite sure they haven't done that already,
Speaker 1: Department of Homeland Security said in the statement. It's our
Speaker 1: duty to keep the nation safe and informed, especially during
Speaker 1: times of conflict. The ongoing Israel Iron conflict brings the
Speaker 1: possibility of increased threat to the homeland and the form
Speaker 1: of possible cyber attacks, acts of violence, and anti Semitic
Speaker 1: hate crimes. Now in the background of that, you got
Speaker 1: all these nngos non governmental organizations funded by maybe some
Speaker 1: of your tax dollars, but at least far left wing
Speaker 1: nut cases who hate the United States and are organizing
Speaker 1: a protest basically regarding anything they can come up with
Speaker 1: an idea to protest over. Now we've got the strikes
Speaker 1: on Iran, which people have already gone out on the
Speaker 1: streets and started a protest, coupled out with crazy terrorist
Speaker 1: cells that may very well be out there. He got
Speaker 1: a recipe for chaos, and there's a number of illustrations
Speaker 1: of basically how this has already happened. He got a
Speaker 1: terrorist that he was arrested and Antifaugh terrorists arrested for
Speaker 1: tremping to blow up a freeway. He built an IED.
Speaker 1: Fortunately they were able to find it after engaged in
Speaker 1: some unruly, unlawful activity throwing cones at cars and boards
Speaker 1: with nails in him, which drew police attention to this guy,
Speaker 1: and that's when they found the IED. That just happened
Speaker 1: last week. And over the United Kingdom, he had a
Speaker 1: leftist action group, Palestinian Action that's the name of it,
Speaker 1: engaging in a campaign of violent sabotage of Israeli links,
Speaker 1: supply chain since the October seventh attack, they claimed responsibility
Speaker 1: for a strike against UK United Kingdom's Royal Air Force.
Speaker 1: Two activists were able to infiltrate RAF Breeze Norton, which
Speaker 1: is the base, causing damage with paint filled fire extinguishers
Speaker 1: and crowbars, waving a Elset Indian flag before getting out
Speaker 1: of the area without being caught. The area described as
Speaker 1: a legally protected place in British law heavily guarded, which
Speaker 1: of course leaves serious questions about the state of its defense.
Speaker 1: Giving two activists on east scooters were able to cause
Speaker 1: damage undetected, got in, did the damage and zipped out
Speaker 1: on their East scooters at a military base. Started already
Speaker 1: this frightening stuff, folks. And then there's that grid infrastructure
Speaker 1: that's so exposed, and there aren't enough law enforcement in
Speaker 1: the world to cover all the potential risks that we face.
Speaker 1: Five three seven, eight hundred eight two to three talk
Speaker 1: fifty on AT and T phones. Really happy topic this morning, huh,
Speaker 1: feel free to call maybe you got a comment on that.
Speaker 1: But also you want to call a chimney care fireplace
Speaker 1: in stove if you have a chimney, regardless of whether
Speaker 1: you have a gas fireplace or wood burner haven't inspected,
Speaker 1: so you might to avoid the problem that you may
Speaker 1: face with water damage. Water damage could be happening right
Speaker 1: now and you may not even know about it. That's
Speaker 1: why the Chimneycare Fireplace is still will come out to
Speaker 1: your place four free and do that evaluation and inspection.
Speaker 1: They've got the skill sets to fix any problem that
Speaker 1: they find it. And that's of course a good thing
Speaker 1: for you because that water damage could be really costly.
Speaker 1: But if you have a woodburner, take advantage of what's
Speaker 1: going on now, the woodburning sweep and evaluation, video camera
Speaker 1: inspection of your entire chimney, plus a certified chimney sweep,
Speaker 1: you'll be good to go and ready to launch. I
Speaker 1: know you're not thinking about a fire right now, which
Speaker 1: is why it's the ideal time to have this taken
Speaker 1: care of. So it's just one hundred and sixty nine
Speaker 1: dollars and ninety nine cents plus tax for the woodburning
Speaker 1: sweep and evaluation for both either or two four eight
Speaker 1: ninety six hundred five one three two four eight ninety
Speaker 1: six hundred eight plus with a better business mayor locally
Speaker 1: own and operated since nineteen eighty eight finalm online and
Speaker 1: book the appointment there and learn more. Chimneycareco dot com,

Speaker 1: So New Hampshire, Gary, just hold, would you mind? I
Speaker 1: promise to take your call first out of the gate anyway?
Speaker 1: Former FBI Assistant Director Chris Wicker on the same issue.
Speaker 1: Because of the open borders, we are at a serious
Speaker 1: catch up phase. We don't know where those thousands of
Speaker 1: Iranians are, and they know specifically that a bunch of
Speaker 1: Iranians were let into the interior of our country. He
Speaker 1: said it. Who knows how many of the others got
Speaker 1: across the border. We missed an opportunity when they caught
Speaker 1: and released those thousands. We missed the opportunity to gather
Speaker 1: intel by interviewing them and thoroughly vetting them. We just
Speaker 1: simply let them go, which is gross negligence on the
Speaker 1: part of the Biden administration, they say. Reportedly, over twelve
Speaker 1: hundred Ranian nationals reportedly entered the United States during Joe
Speaker 1: Biden's time in office. White House Border z Our Tom
Speaker 1: Homan speaking with Sunday Morning Futures. Maria Bartoroma over the
Speaker 1: weekend said the challenge the United States had, I'm sorry,
Speaker 1: the federal four nationals flowing into the US raises concerns
Speaker 1: regarding the possible domestic sleeper cells driven by foreign terrorist organizations.
Speaker 1: That's and you know, this isn't something we talked about
Speaker 1: this while it was going on. And it really takes
Speaker 1: one conflict to set these crazies off. Six twenty five

Speaker 1: smither vent that further Ado. I promise you'd be right
Speaker 1: out of the gate, New Hampshire, Gary. Thanks for holding
Speaker 1: over the break and welcome back to the morning show.
Speaker 11: Another goo on Brian as an ex military, I could
Speaker 11: tell you I was aviation, but I was in one
Speaker 11: sixtieth and everything on a flight line is lined up
Speaker 11: up and down in nice little ducks in a row,
Speaker 11: you know, Yeah, I mean everything's laid out and open.
Speaker 11: So yeah, I know that exists. There's many ways to
Speaker 11: combat that, putting out decoys. You could put out gates
Speaker 11: and fencing to prevent first person drones and stuff like that.
Speaker 11: My mind races when I think of cells and terrace cells,
Speaker 11: and like, for example, the chuch and rebels back in
Speaker 11: the nineteen nineties, what they did to Russia just take
Speaker 11: over a school and then burn it up. They killed
Speaker 11: six hundred children over in Russia like that the terrorists did. Yeah,
Speaker 11: and then I seem to remember they took also took
Speaker 11: over a theater, and I think that killed over two hundred,
Speaker 11: although that might have been negligence from the nerve gas
Speaker 11: that you use trying to get the people out, you know.
Speaker 11: But still, while you've got people over here, you're going
Speaker 11: to attack over here. Soft targets are everywhere.
Speaker 1: Everywhere they are, and you know, everywhere one of the
Speaker 1: things that was cited. In addition to power infrastructure the grid,
Speaker 1: you also have places where people gather together, you know,
Speaker 1: like concerts and festivals, and I don't know anti Trump protests.
Speaker 1: I mean, there are always masses of people around anywhere.
Speaker 1: How can you possibly protect against all targets? Everything is
Speaker 1: a target, as you illustrate, Gary.
Speaker 11: Absolutely good luck taking your kids to the Macy Thanksgiving parade.
Speaker 11: And actually I'm not saying but there's rumors right now all.
Speaker 7: Over the rumor mill that.
Speaker 11: The fourth of July would be a good hit back date.
Speaker 11: You know, who knows they're on their time schedule, not yours.
Speaker 11: So terrorism is a hard thing to really deal with,
Speaker 11: especially now with all the new electronics exactly.
Speaker 1: I mean, you know, it wasn't that long ago the
Speaker 1: idea of having a drone readily available was outside of
Speaker 1: the financial reach of the vast majority of the population,
Speaker 1: or was exclusively the purview of the military or police.
Speaker 1: Go ahead and pull it up on Amazon by a
Speaker 1: drone and crazies out there, Yes, can do that. And
Speaker 1: if they aren't getting them online, you know, just on
Speaker 1: commercial level, they can get them from their crazy terrorist
Speaker 1: sponsor nations.
Speaker 11: I got one better for you.
Speaker 7: I got one better for you. I was listening to
Speaker 7: the Enforcer on X and they go deep into psyops
Speaker 7: on that and one of the things they found out
Speaker 7: with the operation going on with the drones inside Iraq,
Speaker 7: they were manufactured by the Massad who hired Iraqi engineers
Speaker 7: who thought they were working for their own government. Oh wow,
Speaker 7: and this was started a year ago. So don't think
Speaker 7: that you know, these guys have had time to work
Speaker 7: on this, and you know it could be an operation
Speaker 7: nobody even knows about you.
Speaker 1: Yeah, oh, I know, Gary that the realities of what
Speaker 1: could be and what might possibly be are frightening as hell.
Speaker 1: Yet four years of open borders under the Biden administration
Speaker 1: and that's ample opportunity for selles to coordinate, prepare, and
Speaker 1: be ready for the Green light to launch an attack.
Speaker 1: I hope to God it doesn't happen. But if you know,
Speaker 1: the Israelis worked a couple years on getting all the
Speaker 1: things set up for the most recent operation, getting the
Speaker 1: materials into Iran, for example. I know the Ukrainians worked
Speaker 1: for what was reportedly a year and a half or
Speaker 1: two years ahead of time before they launched their strike
Speaker 1: from within the Russian territory. But there's been a lot
Speaker 1: of time for all these organizations with the massive humanity
Speaker 1: that came into the United States with the open borders,
Speaker 1: ten to twenty million, coupled with two million known godaways,
Speaker 1: all of whom could be sinister in motivation. Appreciate your
Speaker 1: service to.
Speaker 11: Our country, Gary, okay, Boddy, take care.
Speaker 1: You too, man, which you know I'm thinking about boy
Speaker 1: Scott motto, be prepared. Got a story to talk about
Speaker 1: what you can assist in being the eyes and ears
Speaker 1: against something like this happening just recently happened in Michigan
Speaker 1: the other day. We talk about that in a minting.
Speaker 1: But yes, real quickly in terms of shootings, two people
Speaker 1: in the hospital after a brawl. It took place this
Speaker 1: morning about three o'clock in the morning at seventh in Walnut,
Speaker 1: twenty nine year old woman shot in the thigh and
Speaker 1: hit with a shrapnel. According to you Since at please
Speaker 1: starting Philbacina speaking with Fox Nineteen other women also injured.
Speaker 1: She was kicked in the head during the fight. No
Speaker 1: information on the identity of the shooter. Incident remains under investigation.
Speaker 1: Got a man hospitalized getting shot yesterday Downtown Officers were
Speaker 1: called the Central Parkway Kroger at five point thirty in
Speaker 1: the morning. The man got shot in the leg at
Speaker 1: Third and Walnut. What's with Walnut Street? He then ran
Speaker 1: up Central Parkway and collapsed there by the Kroger. No
Speaker 1: suspect at this time. Investigation ongoing. I guess there's a
Speaker 1: stack of shootings out there. I hope it's not going
Speaker 1: to get worse. I know the weather's going in the
Speaker 1: wrong direction for that. Odor Exit od O r XIT.

Speaker 6: This is fifty five KARC and iHeartRadio station at six.
Speaker 1: Forty here fifty five car CD doog station and Happy Monday. Yeah,
Speaker 1: a lot of concerns about drones. Talk about that this morning.
Speaker 1: They're worried about American military bases given the realities of
Speaker 1: the Chinese Communist Party members and other potential paper cells
Speaker 1: from evil nations that want to do us harm. Being
Speaker 1: around military basis difficult to protect military basis from the
Speaker 1: short drone strike. I mean you're only a couple hundred
Speaker 1: yards away. You get a drone in virtually no time,
Speaker 1: the limited ability of us to shoot them down, given
Speaker 1: civilian areas around that could deal with the shrapnel and
Speaker 1: other problems that are raised, as I mentioned in that
Speaker 1: one article from Epic Times. But now again you've got
Speaker 1: just crazy individuals, maybe with a political motivation, maybe with
Speaker 1: a fundamentalist motivation, maybe just batcrap, insane and off their medications,
Speaker 1: which is maybe a scenario we had unfolding Wayne, Michigan
Speaker 1: Sunday morning. Suspect open fire on the congregation in the
Speaker 1: middle of the service. But there's a positive lesson to
Speaker 1: be learned from this one. The Wayne Police Department showed
Speaker 1: up to the active shooter at cross Point Church. Upon arrival,
Speaker 1: officers determined that a security guard for the church had
Speaker 1: shot and killed the suspect. One victim to get shot
Speaker 1: in the leg Gumman, described as a thirty one year
Speaker 1: old white guy from Romulus. Motivations unknown, but they say
Speaker 1: it appears he was suffering from a mental health crisis,
Speaker 1: one of many reasons someone might want to open fire
Speaker 1: on an innocent group of a congregation gathering for worship.
Speaker 1: Police officer Chief Ryan Strong said, you know, our interactions
Speaker 1: with him in the past were quite limited, nothing of note,
Speaker 1: he said, So this was not someone who was on
Speaker 1: anybody's radar. Showed up wearing tactical gear. There's video of
Speaker 1: the congregation ducking and moving to the back of the
Speaker 1: church and things of that nature. Strong said one staff
Speaker 1: member got shot in the leg by the suspect. Happened
Speaker 1: just quarter in noon local time. Outlets said. The armed
Speaker 1: suspect on his way to the Christian church when a
Speaker 1: p person outside the church tried to stop him using
Speaker 1: a truck. Accorded Chief Strong, several staff members from the
Speaker 1: church approached the government. A parrishioner struck the gunman with
Speaker 1: his vehicle as the gunman shot the vehicle repeatedly. At
Speaker 1: least two staff members shot the gunmen with what were
Speaker 1: fatal wounds. They were armed staff there. Chief Strong said
Speaker 1: he believed the gunman was intending to commit a mass
Speaker 1: shooting based on the prelminary investigation. They don't think he
Speaker 1: had any affiliation with the church either. Doesn't really quite
Speaker 1: matter though, does it. In the wake of the shooting,
Speaker 1: Paul County, Florida Sheriff Grady Judd urged those going to
Speaker 1: places of worship to be cautious and alert for suspicious activity,
Speaker 1: mirroring the notices that went out by the various mayors
Speaker 1: of the cities of New York and Miami and Los Angeles,
Speaker 1: be alert. We have this bombing that just recently went on.
Speaker 1: The Iranians are bat crap crazy and a lot of
Speaker 1: fundamentalists among them that would love to do you harm
Speaker 1: just in the name of I don't know, are striking
Speaker 1: their military base, are stopping or at least hoping. I'm
Speaker 1: waiting for the outcome on that one. It's still some
Speaker 1: big question marks floating around about how damn much damage
Speaker 1: there was done to that Fordham nuclear facility it got hit.
Speaker 1: Some are suggesting really severe damage, although not definitively so.
Speaker 1: But I'm hoping we set back their nuclear program into
Speaker 1: the Stone Age. Regardless of whether you believe it was
Speaker 1: appropriate constitutional for a president of unilaterally launched that, I
Speaker 1: think the results we can say are good, at least
Speaker 1: in so far as keeping around from getting a bomb. Remember,
Speaker 1: Iran funds the crazies in the world, and there are
Speaker 1: a lot of copycat crazies out in the world, people
Speaker 1: who hate the United States. We've seen a lot of
Speaker 1: that of late, haven't we from Antifa to BLM to
Speaker 1: the protests have been taking place recently, just absolute outright
Speaker 1: anti Semitism being expressed in the streets now, protests related
Speaker 1: to just Trump generally the no King's protest. It's Trump,
Speaker 1: it must be bad. A lot of organizations out there
Speaker 1: funding those protests, getting them all organized, and even paying
Speaker 1: some of the protesters. It's been widely reported that that
Speaker 1: is in fact going on here. Look, we got another
Speaker 1: opportunity to get a bunch of people together to protest
Speaker 1: Donald Trump for his actions against the Iranians. Let's take
Speaker 1: to the streets. Let's get out there and protest the
Speaker 1: deportation of criminal illegal immigrants. There's a group stir the pot.
Speaker 1: But at least you look at Wayne Michigan in the church.
Speaker 1: They had a active shooter protocol. They were prepared, and
Speaker 1: they neutralized the threat with no loss of parishion or life.
Speaker 1: The only loss of life was the guy who was
Speaker 1: going to try to come in and kill them. That's
Speaker 1: my going back to the boy Scout model. Be prepared,
Speaker 1: you can actually have an impact regardless of the motivation
Speaker 1: of the crazy person. And I'm gonna lump anybod who
Speaker 1: would actually try to go after someone, whether it's a
Speaker 1: political motivation or they're just off their meds, they're crazy
Speaker 1: and the world's filled with them. Six forty six I

Speaker 1: for calling the Morning show. Welcome.
Speaker 12: Well, since you tossed that phone number out there, I
Speaker 12: think I'll use it, why not and put my two
Speaker 12: cents in. And I mean this in a very respectful
Speaker 12: way to the two people. It's directed to you, to
Speaker 12: everybody listening. I don't mean it to come across in
Speaker 12: any way flip into anything about the president taking out
Speaker 12: the nuclear sites. Bottom line, I don't think he wanted
Speaker 12: to be the president of the United States who allowed
Speaker 12: Iran to get a nuclear weapon and it happened on
Speaker 12: his walk, you know. So yeah, there you go. Now,
Speaker 12: let's look my my representative, Thomas Massey, and I have
Speaker 12: voted for him every time in the primary and general election.
Speaker 12: I'll continue to do so. I really liked the guy
Speaker 12: at some point. And here's where I don't want to
Speaker 12: offend anybody. If you remember Michael Decoucus nineteen eighty eight
Speaker 12: running for president against George H. W. Bush in e No, no, no,
Speaker 12: not that. Yeah, we could. That's that's the easy one.
Speaker 12: If you go back to a debate, he was asked
Speaker 12: by one of the moderators, and here's where I don't
Speaker 12: want to offend. What would And it was maybe a
Speaker 12: death penalty question or something like that. He was the
Speaker 12: governor of Massachusetts. I believe, what would you do if
Speaker 12: your wife was raped? And he answered, matter of factly,
Speaker 12: letter of the law, Well, here's what would happen? Da
Speaker 12: da da da da da da da. When I think
Speaker 12: everybody watching, ninety nine point nine percent of the men
Speaker 12: were thinking I'd get a gun, I'd hunt the guy
Speaker 12: down and blow is, you know, head off. But that's
Speaker 12: but you know, and so and again I don't want
Speaker 12: to offend. But Thomas Massey at some point, I know what,
Speaker 12: you know, I don't know the Constitution as well as
Speaker 12: he does. I know that, you know, he's a man
Speaker 12: of principal. Napolitano is a man of principle. There's a
Speaker 12: reality in the world too. We don't want Iran to
Speaker 12: have a nuclear weapon. You know, you you're also you've
Speaker 12: got an executive branch that has grown stronger over the decades.
Speaker 12: Congress has permitted this to happen. It is, it is.
Speaker 1: And if you if you were listening to five o'clock
Speaker 1: our Steve Jonathan Turley, actually I was.
Speaker 12: I went to work at that time.
Speaker 1: Okay, no, but Jonathan Turley and you can find it yourself.
Speaker 1: Jonathan Turley, he's you know.
Speaker 12: Have you read that yet?
Speaker 1: Yeah? And he explained, I mean that that's the point.
Speaker 1: Congress doesn't want the role of waging war. They don't
Speaker 1: want any responsibility for it. And president after president after
Speaker 1: a president, both Democrat and Republican have done exactly the
Speaker 1: same way, sometimes with more impunity. Than Trump. Trump, at
Speaker 1: least under the War Powers Act, gave Congress the required
Speaker 1: notice within forty eight hours that this happened and was
Speaker 1: going to continue to happen. There's a sixty day period
Speaker 1: that he can continue to do this, and then a
Speaker 1: thirty day wind down period, effectively giving him ninety days
Speaker 1: under the War Powers Act. Now, if you ask Massy,
Speaker 1: he would say, well, the Warpowers Act and Neapolitano are
Speaker 1: not constitutional. They've never been tested in court. No one's
Speaker 1: interested in testing them because our congress people don't want
Speaker 1: to have to deal with the responsibility of making this
Speaker 1: kind of decisions, especially a dysfunctional Congress like we've got,
Speaker 1: who would never in a short enough period of time
Speaker 1: make a decision. They'd be harumphing it over in subcommittees
Speaker 1: for months and months. Meanwhile, you know that Ron builds
Speaker 1: himself a nuclear bomb. I get all I.
Speaker 12: Can say, Yeah, if I can say one more thing
Speaker 12: or about Massy, and again, I like the guy, and
Speaker 12: I'll continue to vote for him. I've sent money to him,
Speaker 12: so I mean, I really don't have a problem with
Speaker 12: But at some point, you know, and I know the
Speaker 12: letter of the law, and you're do you know again
Speaker 12: go back to what the caucus was asked and how
Speaker 12: he answered it. So with Massey, at some point you
Speaker 12: look at the people that are sitting around you in
Speaker 12: the room. I'm not talking about the four hundred and
Speaker 12: thirty four other members of Congress. I'm talking about the
Speaker 12: people that now supposedly agree with you and have your back.
Speaker 12: And look at those people and say, oh my god,
Speaker 12: these are the people that are supporting me, and you've
Speaker 12: got AOC and you've got the whole gang of them.
Speaker 12: At some point you might want to rethink and say, maybe, maybe,
Speaker 12: maybe I can understand why this was done. You know,
Speaker 12: that's my only point. Yes, he's not gone to offend or.
Speaker 1: Anytheam you're not. This is the thoughtful analysis that we
Speaker 1: go through. He is a constitutional purist, like Judge of Politano.
Speaker 1: There aren't that many around anymore, and they stand out
Speaker 1: like outliers. When I chuckled out a lot of your
Speaker 1: comment because it's a valid one. When you find yourself
Speaker 1: in a moment of absolute agreement on a topic with AOC,
Speaker 1: you might want to step back from yourself and ponder
Speaker 1: it a little bit. Six fifty five at fifty five
Speaker 1: KRSD talk station. I'm just looking for laughter wherever I
Speaker 1: can find it. Right now, crazy world. We got a
Speaker 1: little more talk about it. Then we get to hear
Speaker 1: from Christopher Smitheman with the Smith a van coming up
Speaker 1: at seven to twenty. I hope you can stick around.
Speaker 5: News happens fast, stay up to date.
Speaker 3: At the top of the hour, we're moving very quickly.
Speaker 5: Fifty five krc the talk station.
Speaker 13: This report is Sponsoredvite.
Speaker 1: Seven oh six. Here thinking about KRCD talk station. Happen
Speaker 1: Monday Christer Smith then coming up back every Monday seventy twenty.
Speaker 1: But the former Vice mayor of the City of since
Speaker 1: nat Doim what we call the Smither vent and Brian
Speaker 1: James fast forward one hour. We'll talk about how they
Speaker 1: run attacks, affect oil prices, inflation, stocks, the dollar, everything bad,
Speaker 1: keeping rate high or keeping the rates right where they are,
Speaker 1: and also a new drop dead date for when So's
Speaker 1: security is going to run out of money, another something
Speaker 1: something else that Congress neglects action to save a program
Speaker 1: that so many people rely on. SO And it's really
Speaker 1: not good news at all when it comes to the
Speaker 1: social welfare safety net. But our Congress is largely ineffectual,
Speaker 1: and going back to Stee's point, I think it was
Speaker 1: a valid one. The whole Dacaucus conversation about you know
Speaker 1: what if your wife got raped, and you know, the
Speaker 1: vast majority of us out here in the real world
Speaker 1: dealing with practical realities and practical solutions, if our daughters
Speaker 1: or our wives were attacked and molested in some way, Yeah,
Speaker 1: we'd like to go ahead and take a baseball bat
Speaker 1: to the guy who did it, or even worse, going
Speaker 1: shoot him. And what is the consequence of taking that
Speaker 1: into your own hands. Obviously you could be prosecuted criminally.
Speaker 1: Maybe you throw yourself on the mercy of the jury.
Speaker 1: Maybe you hope that they exercise their right to find
Speaker 1: you not guilty even if there's guilty on a reasonable doubt.
Speaker 1: Jury nullification always found it strange the defense attorneys can't
Speaker 1: actually raise that and say, listen, you don't have to
Speaker 1: find him guilty. You are free to find him not guilty.
Speaker 1: He shot the guy who raped his child. You know,
Speaker 1: it's a compelling defense, isn't it. But what are the
Speaker 1: consequences if the president violates a constitution? Now we can
Speaker 1: all look at the War Powers Act, and you can argue,
Speaker 1: as Congressman Massy believes, it is not constitutional, and that's
Speaker 1: sort of jud judgment Politana's argument, because there are lots
Speaker 1: of Supreme Court cases which basically say you can't delegate
Speaker 1: powers that lie specifically in the hands of, say, in
Speaker 1: this particular case, Congress. The declaration of war handed over
Speaker 1: to the president, even for sixty days or ninety days
Speaker 1: like under the War Powers Act, never been tested, but
Speaker 1: it exists. Presidents have asserted the inherent powers to conduct
Speaker 1: these types of attacks requires the president to inform Congress
Speaker 1: in forty eight hours in a written notice. Donald Trump
Speaker 1: reportedly did immediately notify Congress after the attack under the
Speaker 1: War Powers Act. So he's followed the letter of the
Speaker 1: War Powers Act. Now he's got sixty days not without
Speaker 1: congressional authorization to use military force he is currently operating.
Speaker 1: I would I think he would argue, as did a congressman,
Speaker 1: former Congressman Brad Weinster of last week, that that nineteen
Speaker 1: ninety one authorization for Use of military force following nine
Speaker 1: to eleven encapsulates Iran and specifically mentions Iran, but were
Speaker 1: so far removed from the nine to eleven attack that
Speaker 1: it kind of causes one to pause and say, really,
Speaker 1: that thing's still around.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it is.
Speaker 1: It's been the justification for literally everything that's gone on
Speaker 1: in the Middle East militarily speaking, since, of course, the
Speaker 1: authorization for use of military force was passed in nineteen
Speaker 1: ninety one. But then Donald Trump also has history as
Speaker 1: on his side, because so many other presidents, most notably
Speaker 1: Democrat presidents, have done the same damn things, sometimes with
Speaker 1: absolute outright impunity. So going back to you might having
Speaker 1: consequences for gunning down a person who raped your child.
Speaker 1: The prosecutor may come after you for doing that. That
Speaker 1: would be the consequences. What are the consequences for a
Speaker 1: president who, as the Democrats and Loan Thomas Massey claim,
Speaker 1: has violated the Constitution? Is it impeachment? Is that a
Speaker 1: high crime and misdemeanor? Well, nobody ever else has been
Speaker 1: impeached for doing the same thing, and even worse, Hillary
Speaker 1: Clinton the leading example of or Obama anyway, Buttertley pointed
Speaker 1: this all out and that op ed piece I read
Speaker 1: this morning about the status of the law, noting that
Speaker 1: president's routinely ignored the Warpars Act when it comes to
Speaker 1: their ability to conduct foreign military operation go back to
Speaker 1: nineteen ninety nine. Clinton ignored the sixty day deadline, continuing
Speaker 1: to bomb Kosovo that went to court. His actions were
Speaker 1: challenged Campbell versus Clinton. His Turtly puts it, just shrugged
Speaker 1: off the violation and said it was a nonju justicical
Speaker 1: political question. Hillary Clinton, Secretary of State, push for unilateral
Speaker 1: attacks during the Obama administration, dismissed the need to consult,
Speaker 1: let alone secure authorization from Congress. March of twenty eleven,
Speaker 1: she testified that there was no need for that consultation,
Speaker 1: declared the administration would ignore the sixty day limit on
Speaker 1: unauthorized military actions. Obama defied the War Powers Resolution on Syria.
Speaker 1: Did ask for authorization to take military action, but Congress
Speaker 1: didn't approve it. He did it anyway. He asked for
Speaker 1: an authorization for use of military force. Now, so, in
Speaker 1: that particular case, Conress expressly denied the authorization for the
Speaker 1: introduction of US armed forces. Both Obama and Trump did
Speaker 1: precisely that, and, of course, Turtly notes, at least Trump
Speaker 1: notified Congress in accordance with the War Powers Act by
Speaker 1: providing them with written notice, so he'll have sixty days
Speaker 1: plus thirty days to wind down, and that's currently what's
Speaker 1: going on. So where does what are the ramifications if
Speaker 1: Trump did in fact violate the Constitution, which is a
Speaker 1: very complicated question, as I pointed out, since the War
Speaker 1: Powers Act does seem to provide some measure of authority
Speaker 1: for him to engage in this activity and not parenthetically,
Speaker 1: he may have saved the world from one of the
Speaker 1: most tyrannical, evil and batcrap insane administrations or governments the
Speaker 1: world has ever seen from obtaining a nuclear weapon. Keeping
Speaker 1: my fingers crossed and praying to God that those bombers
Speaker 1: actually did blow up sufficiently that Fordam Nuclear base. There's
Speaker 1: still question marks swirling around the effectiveness of those bunker busters,
Speaker 1: but by all accounts, it looks like mission accomplished, which
Speaker 1: is a great thing for the globe. And many global
Speaker 1: leaders are kind of keeping their mouths shuts or praising
Speaker 1: Donald Trump for doing just that. Russian's the only one
Speaker 1: that's they're raising hell about it, suggesting that Iran may
Speaker 1: very well get nuclear weapons from some other country, question
Speaker 1: mark who that might be. Chinese have been kind of quiet,
Speaker 1: but impeachment if when you look at the parallel killing
Speaker 1: the rapist of your daughter and then being held accountable
Speaker 1: by the United States justice system, whether it's a local
Speaker 1: prosecutor or maybe some federal charge. You'll go through the
Speaker 1: process and you may be held accountable for violating the
Speaker 1: letter of the law. But in this particular case, the
Speaker 1: only thing they've got to go on is, I guess impeachment.
Speaker 1: So is the operating pursuing to a justifiable use under
Speaker 1: the Authorization for Use Military Force from nineteen ninety one?
Speaker 1: Question mark? Is he authorized to do this under the
Speaker 1: War Powers Act in nineteen seventy three? Question mark? And
Speaker 1: if you get past those and you conclude that no,
Speaker 1: he's not, and know he didn't or he isn't, leading
Speaker 1: to what would be then an arguable outright violation of
Speaker 1: the Constitution. Is that a high crime or misdemeanor for
Speaker 1: which he can be impeached? And like Jerry nullification, whether
Speaker 1: or not it is, and that's a legal question in
Speaker 1: and of itself. Are there sufficient votes in Congress to
Speaker 1: impeach him? I would argue the answer to that is no,
Speaker 1: Even if you got all the Democrats in the line up,
Speaker 1: coupled with Thomas Massey, I don't think the rest of
Speaker 1: the rest of the Republicans would be voting in that direction,
Speaker 1: and you've got to get a pretty sizable number of
Speaker 1: representatives to vote. Then it goes over to the Senate.
Speaker 1: Right thinks it's a bit lopsided in the Senate in
Speaker 1: favor of the Republican side of the Ledgers, so the
Speaker 1: likelihood of them getting an impeachment is slim, and none
Speaker 1: left the room. So lots of variables out there, lots
Speaker 1: of legal questions on the route to a potential impeachment hearing,
Speaker 1: none of which look very good and none of which
Speaker 1: are clear. Most notably given the history of presidents going
Speaker 1: all the way back to Reagan. Reagan sent troops into
Speaker 1: Grenada to protect Americans on the island against pro Kami
Speaker 1: forces without congressional approval. So there's another illustrations George W.
Speaker 1: Bush or an invasion of Panama to kick out Manuel Noriega,
Speaker 1: no congressional approval. There's Clinton the airstrikes against Yugoslavia to
Speaker 1: protect Kosovo, no prior approval. Obama committing the US troops
Speaker 1: to international military force in Libya, hmm, no approval and
Speaker 1: my point, no consequences. So I think Trump has a
Speaker 1: reliance argument to make as well. And there is something
Speaker 1: in the law where if you have sufficient legal grounds
Speaker 1: to rely you know that that establishes a foundation to
Speaker 1: justify your actions and unanswered questions. Seven fifteen fifty five
Speaker 1: krc DE talk stations. Stick around. We're going to hear
Speaker 1: it from a former vice mayor of the City of
Speaker 1: Cincinnati doing the Smith event, Christopher Smith Aman up next.
Speaker 1: After a strong recommendation. Man, you're feeling it, aren't you.
Speaker 1: The heat, the humidity, the heat index. Your house is
Speaker 1: on fire. You're just struggling to get the air conditioned
Speaker 1: to even meet some reasonable temperature. You need insulation to
Speaker 1: those exterior walls. I feel pretty confident about that. So
Speaker 1: if you're under insulated or uninsulated, you are struggling right now,
Speaker 1: and there's no doubt about it, and your energy bill
Speaker 1: is going to be COI US. That is, assuming you're
Speaker 1: trying to fight the battle against the heat. Well, USA
Speaker 1: to the rescue the highest star value phone in the market.
Speaker 1: They can add it to whatever you've got in your
Speaker 1: walls by way of under insulation, or fill the empty
Speaker 1: wall cavity with the highest star value phone in the market,
Speaker 1: which is made right here in the state of Ohio.
Speaker 1: They've been at this for decades, thousands of homes enjoying
Speaker 1: greater comfort and lower energy bills. And this both come
Speaker 1: with a guarantee from USA you will save enough, probably
Speaker 1: especially with the temperatures right now, to cover the monthly cost.
Speaker 1: It's only ninety nine dollars a month interest free, speakin
Speaker 1: of free. It starts with a free inspection and free quote.
Speaker 1: So haven't come out to your place and find out
Speaker 1: if you can take if you are need in need
Speaker 1: of USA's premium foam and if you're adequately insulated, they'll
Speaker 1: tell you so five one three three eight one three
Speaker 1: six two six five one three three eight one foam
Speaker 1: find them online USA Insulation dot Net.
Speaker 6: This is fifty five KARC and iHeartRadio station Cower.
Speaker 2: I'm here just pondering all the violence and sits to
Speaker 2: that in downtown, you know, to to wake up to
Speaker 2: a sixteen year old shot in his apartment who runs
Speaker 2: outside and dies on the sidewalk out there, essentially rushed
Speaker 2: to the hospital to this morning, there's a brawl down
Speaker 2: there at a bar.
Speaker 1: Just unbelievable.
Speaker 2: I don't know who's partying at three am on a
Speaker 2: Monday morning. I mean jobs work, what you know, I
Speaker 2: don't know what that is. But you know, all I
Speaker 2: do is see All I do is see young people,
Speaker 2: you know when I turn on the on the news
Speaker 2: being shot. And you just don't feel the urgency of
Speaker 2: city hall to do anything real about it, Brian Thomas.
Speaker 2: And the first line of defense is your police. But
Speaker 2: they spend so much time undermining the police, you know,
Speaker 2: not supporting them. The proactive policing of our day is dead,
Speaker 2: and so they're they're they're concerned about approaching the teenager,
Speaker 2: you know, and just saying it's beyond curfew. We're going
Speaker 2: to hold you accountable. You're not supposed to be downtown.
Speaker 2: You're not supposed to be downtown. So I don't you know,
Speaker 2: I don't get city Hall. I don't know what the
Speaker 2: mayor is doing. And this is on the backdrop, you know,
Speaker 2: of the of the citizen Sarah who said that her
Speaker 2: husband was stabbed to death in his apartment. We all
Speaker 2: know that's true. Patrick lost his life. What is it
Speaker 2: gonna take for city hall to take to say I'm
Speaker 2: gonna get my arms around it. I'm gonna get my
Speaker 2: arms around it. By first supporting the police. I have
Speaker 2: not heard a statement coming from city Hall or the
Speaker 2: mayor of Cincinnati that just says, I support my police department.
Speaker 2: How do they know if the leadership keeps saying we
Speaker 2: want to reimagine the police department or we want to
Speaker 2: defund it, or you know, just being unclear like in
Speaker 2: the thing we just had, and it takes them, you know,
Speaker 2: over a month to decide whether, oh man, we're not
Speaker 2: going to prosecute this this police officer. How the officers
Speaker 2: at the end of the day, how do they know
Speaker 2: that they have the support of the leadership down at
Speaker 2: City Hall and we and we just constantly see this
Speaker 2: kind of shooting, these kinds of deaths. That's that's what
Speaker 2: I'm is. It is key on my mind when I
Speaker 2: wake up and see a sixteen year old kid, I mean,
Speaker 2: you know I have a child in that age band
Speaker 2: you know, says he went to tatt he was a
Speaker 2: good kid, was volunteering, had several jobs. He's dead today.
Speaker 2: And I don't want to just run through it because
Speaker 2: by doing it it almost it almost feels like I'm
Speaker 2: making it normal and it's not normal.
Speaker 1: Well it isn't. I mean either are so many challenges
Speaker 1: that elected officials face, and I agree with you wholeheartedly.
Speaker 1: The elected officials, the council members, and the mayor should
Speaker 1: do more by way of out loud expression of support
Speaker 1: for law enforcement. They should do more by way of
Speaker 1: out loud support for people within any given neighborhood or
Speaker 1: community working in cooperation with the police to improve their
Speaker 1: own safety for the benefit of every human being in
Speaker 1: the city. They keep quiet on it. Now, that doesn't
Speaker 1: solve even the out loud expression of support for the police.
Speaker 1: I don't think would solve the problem of crazy kids
Speaker 1: with guns running around shooting. That is a broader societal
Speaker 1: problem we face, and we could point to any other
Speaker 1: number of sociological reasons for that to break down to
Speaker 1: the front of the nuclear family. I don't know the
Speaker 1: online chatter and influence that goes on. Maybe that's a
Speaker 1: component of it. I'm sure there's a whole mixed bag
Speaker 1: of things that would justify, or at least in the
Speaker 1: mind of a sixteen year old or a young person,
Speaker 1: to go out and just gun somebody down or randomly
Speaker 1: shoot into a crowd of people. It makes no sense,
Speaker 1: but it would help.
Speaker 2: Brian. But when you see city council introducing resolutions on
Speaker 2: Israel and Hamas as an example, and spending loads of
Speaker 2: time on that subject matter which they have nothing to
Speaker 2: do with, nothing to do with, and then you see
Speaker 2: all of these other things that are happening. You see
Speaker 2: a city council and a mayor that are distracted from
Speaker 2: the things are the reasons we elected them. That's the problem.
Speaker 2: You have a distracted councilor they're so busy. You know,
Speaker 2: just a week ago, they're downtown with bullhorns, you know,
Speaker 2: engaging with protesters about King's Day, you know, trying to
Speaker 2: protest the President of the United States. Now, if they
Speaker 2: could walk into gum at the same time, meaning the
Speaker 2: things that they're supposed to be doing, they're doing, well,
Speaker 2: maybe we give them a break. But when you wake
Speaker 2: up and three or four people are shot downtown and
Speaker 2: then the only thing City Hall says is downtown is safe.
Speaker 2: These are isolated incidents. You're okay, come on down to
Speaker 2: the bank. Somebody was beat up down here and shot.
Speaker 2: I promise you, your wife, your kids, and you will be safe.
Speaker 2: Come on down. It doesn't make sense now, and that
Speaker 2: is what is so frustrating. Brian Thomas, Well.
Speaker 1: The escalating crime and the violence in downtown since then
Speaker 1: is ruining their marketing component. They want people to come
Speaker 1: and live in downtown Cincinnati, and it's ruining it for
Speaker 1: people who even might consider It's like, wait a second,
Speaker 1: do I want to move down to that crime infested
Speaker 1: environment where people are getting shot every day of the week.
Speaker 12: Nah?
Speaker 1: Maybe not. Let's bring Christopher back. I know he's got
Speaker 1: more in his mind. Seven thirty one fifty five KRC
Speaker 1: Detalk Station. Brian Thomas here with Christopher Smith van during
Speaker 1: the Smith event. All right, Christopher, Well, what else is
Speaker 1: on your mind, my dear friend.
Speaker 2: Well, brother, I'm going to stay on this a little longer, sure,
Speaker 2: because we're at we just started the summer, and as
Speaker 2: you indicated as we went in the break, it's getting
Speaker 2: hot and we know that the kind of violence that
Speaker 2: you and I were just talking about increases as it
Speaker 2: gets warmer, because people are out at parks, their families
Speaker 2: are out doing different kinds of activities, and we have
Speaker 2: officers out here who are trying to do a job,
Speaker 2: trying to keep us safe. But the barrage of trying
Speaker 2: to just share officers down it just it just never stops.
Speaker 2: And so this notion, for example, the legislation that's out
Speaker 2: there that basically says that police officers will have no
Speaker 2: immunity in their job. And if something like that passes,
Speaker 2: you know, through the state House, and no one's gonna
Speaker 2: want to be a police officer because you're making split
Speaker 2: second decisions. And so this notion, you know, still we
Speaker 2: have a country divided, and you and I can have
Speaker 2: a discussion about why it's divided around race, but you
Speaker 2: and I know that if a white officer, male or female,
Speaker 2: in uniform or out of uniform, kills a youth in
Speaker 2: Cincinnati and are anywhere in the United States of America
Speaker 2: who is African American with a gun like we just saw,
Speaker 2: that officer's life will be changed, not just because you
Speaker 2: took the life of a human being, which is bad enough,
Speaker 2: but because of what society is going to say, do
Speaker 2: and scrutinize. And so the reality of it is, you
Speaker 2: see all these guns that are that are in these
Speaker 2: young people's hands in downtown.
Speaker 7: It's warm.
Speaker 2: We've got police officers who are being asked to do
Speaker 2: a job, but we want to reimagine you and they
Speaker 2: know that they're being second guess that's why they're leaving drop,
Speaker 2: which means they're leaving their employment early to retire because
Speaker 2: they know the stress of the job and what has
Speaker 2: taken place at city halls across the United States of America.
Speaker 2: It's the perfect storm, Brian Thomas, for this violence to
Speaker 2: continue to proliferate. And it's sad, as you indicated that
Speaker 2: it seems like the mayor in our city and the
Speaker 2: council and our city are focused more on just trying
Speaker 2: to collect money. They want people from the to just
Speaker 2: keep coming downtown. But when you're watching the news and
Speaker 2: you wake up and you got sixteen year olds walking
Speaker 2: around with guns. The big fight that happened over by
Speaker 2: the air and off it looked like about fifty sixty
Speaker 2: youth just teeing off on each other. How can you
Speaker 2: with a rational sense say hey, it's safe to come downtown.
Speaker 2: I just don't get it, Brian Thomas. And I'm hoping
Speaker 2: that city hall someone is listening, saying you got to
Speaker 2: get your act together. This is not just about opening
Speaker 2: up new pools. It's not about just making sure the
Speaker 2: rec centers is open. It's making sure that your police
Speaker 2: know that you have their back. And you have to
Speaker 2: do that with a proclamation. You have to do that
Speaker 2: standing with your police shoulder to shoulder, saying we want
Speaker 2: proactive policing in Cincinnati. And when we get the proactive policing,
Speaker 2: we have their back. We don't have one member of
Speaker 2: council or a mayor who is willing to stand with
Speaker 2: our polic in this city, and that's why the crime
Speaker 2: continues to get worse.
Speaker 1: Well, there's certainly an argument in there, Christopher, and I
Speaker 1: can't fault you at all for really hoping that they
Speaker 1: would become more proactive in their enforcement or engagement with
Speaker 1: law enforcement and support of law enforcement. I don't see
Speaker 1: there any downside at all, and one of the upsides
Speaker 1: might be well, safer communities.
Speaker 3: How about that?
Speaker 1: Seven here fifty about CAIRCD talk station Monday Monday is
Speaker 1: Brian James how the Iran attacks going to impact well,
Speaker 1: literally everything, And that's one of the topics with Brian
Speaker 1: James at the top of the our news. In the meantime,
Speaker 1: we continue with the former Vice mayor of the City
Speaker 1: of Cincinnati what we call this smither vent, Christopher Smithman.
Speaker 1: You have the floor.
Speaker 2: Let me just say, with the elephant in the Room
Speaker 2: number one. You know, I support the decision to attack
Speaker 2: the nuclear sites in Iran. I like the fact that
Speaker 2: it was only limited to those sites period. I think
Speaker 2: we shouldn't go any further than that. And I don't
Speaker 2: support Masthey, Senator Massey out of Kentucky saying that he's
Speaker 2: going to impeach the president over the decision. These are
Speaker 2: really tough decisions. Many presidents before this president had to
Speaker 2: wrestle with this decision.
Speaker 7: This is not new.
Speaker 2: This is a country that has been saying death to America,
Speaker 2: death to Israel, death to anybody. Really yea, and and
Speaker 2: and it's it was incredibly important for Iran not to
Speaker 2: get their hands on a nuclear weapon. That's our interest.
Speaker 2: Our interests is that and that only so if we
Speaker 2: can stay out of it from that point, allow Israel
Speaker 2: and Iran to work this out. Uh, continue to get
Speaker 2: people back to the table to have conversations about peace.
Speaker 2: That's where we should be. And I hope that Congress
Speaker 2: and the Senate supports that very limited military strike that
Speaker 2: happened over the weekend. It's over now. Of course, if
Speaker 2: Iran said, hey, we want to take an action, then
Speaker 2: things are going to have to be reassessed. But I
Speaker 2: hope that where we are today as a country is
Speaker 2: we don't take another step, We don't attack anything else
Speaker 2: over there. We stay out of it, and we now
Speaker 2: just allow Israel and Iran to work it out. They
Speaker 2: might continue to fight for the next three thousand years,
Speaker 2: but we can't have Iran. We can't have Iran with
Speaker 2: a nuclear weapon. Yeah, saying they want death to America.
Speaker 1: No, I'm accord with you. And I think in so
Speaker 1: far as additional actions by US military now, I don't
Speaker 1: think that's in play. And Trump has even said that,
Speaker 1: you know, it's up to the wrongs if they attack
Speaker 1: our interest, guess what we're coming back. And you know
Speaker 1: the Israeli forces, and of course, as demonstrated by our
Speaker 1: involvement with the bomb strikes, there is no air deterrence
Speaker 1: in Iran aitymore. They don't even have any airplanes left
Speaker 1: as far as I understand, and a lot of their
Speaker 1: surface to air missiles apparently have been wiped out. Clearly,
Speaker 1: we were able to get in and get out with
Speaker 1: a whole bunch of airplanes over the weekend, and Israel's
Speaker 1: been proving that day in and day out as well,
Speaker 1: and there's a lot of other targets Israel could easily target.
Speaker 1: They have told them you better step back and you
Speaker 1: better negotiate, because we're coming after your electrical grid and infrastructure.
Speaker 1: I mean, they could shut the power off. There's so
Speaker 1: many more steps that can be taken to act as
Speaker 1: a further deterrence or retaliatory action against the Iranians. So
Speaker 1: the Ruanian has got to be sitting back and going, hmmm,
Speaker 1: maybe we shouldn't And that would include maybe we shouldn't
Speaker 1: launch missiles into American military bases which are within very
Speaker 1: close striking range of the capabilities of the Iranians missiles.
Speaker 1: So you know, it would be a really bad idea.
Speaker 1: I mean, you know, if you're sitting down with the
Speaker 1: Supreme leader of Iran, you're like, dude, you really want
Speaker 1: to go down that road. You see what they just
Speaker 1: did here Fordham Nuclear Base the other day. Do you
Speaker 1: see what the Israelis are able to accomplish in twelve
Speaker 1: days and how they've wiped out thousands of your rockets
Speaker 1: and destroyed so much of your military infrastructure and killed
Speaker 1: almost every single member of your top military command. They've
Speaker 1: had a hands off approach to the other political leaders
Speaker 1: in Iran, the non military political leaders there all could
Speaker 1: be targets. And nobody's interested in regime change. Now, Donald
Speaker 1: Trump said, I mean, they're trying to mince his words,
Speaker 1: but he said, I Am not interested in regime change,
Speaker 1: and I'm not going to continue to wage a war
Speaker 1: in order to overthrow the Ayatola. God knows who'd step
Speaker 1: up into his place, but that could very well happen
Speaker 1: if they start launching missiles into our military bases or
Speaker 1: otherwise attack US interest. Christopher, I'm most concerned about the
Speaker 1: wave of illegal immigrants under the Biden ministry, the two
Speaker 1: million known got aways that very well could represent a
Speaker 1: threat right here domestically, and there is a lot of
Speaker 1: talk about that this morning.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's that is that is also very true. You know,
Speaker 2: I'm one of those families. I have a son in
Speaker 2: the military, and you know, he could be called up.
Speaker 2: He's in the Guard. He did four years active duty
Speaker 2: and now he's in the Guard and he could be
Speaker 2: called up. And so so these these kinds of discussions
Speaker 2: for my family are, like many who are listening, are
Speaker 2: very very real. And you know, as a as a guy,
Speaker 2: as a father who has somebody in the military, and
Speaker 2: I always say I've got skin in the game because
Speaker 2: my baby is in it, or can be in it,
Speaker 2: could be put in it. That the decision to stay
Speaker 2: very focused. People who are listening to me maybe don't
Speaker 2: follow this closely understand. But you had a country saying
Speaker 2: they wanted a nuclear weapon, and they on it death
Speaker 2: to America. And this has been going on for about
Speaker 2: forty years, and at a certain point there are other
Speaker 2: presidents that said, hey, we have more time because they
Speaker 2: weren't close, let's negotiate. I'm not getting into the weeds
Speaker 2: of the previous president presidents and what information they had.
Speaker 2: There was enough information, I think here for anybody to
Speaker 2: come out and say, six months from now, one year
Speaker 2: from now, a short period of time, Iran had the
Speaker 2: ability to have a nuclear weapon, put it on the
Speaker 2: put it on the head of a missile and firing. Well,
Speaker 2: that can't happen.
Speaker 1: Well, I agree with you, it can happen. Will be
Speaker 1: extraordinarily dangerous, given how unhinged the leadership is there and
Speaker 1: their outright, absolute desires to eliminate Israel and the United States.
Speaker 1: They've demonstrated that by all the missiles they've been launching
Speaker 1: on Israel through their terrorist proxies now for decades. You know,
Speaker 1: that's what they want. And think about the reality of
Speaker 1: them going after a nuclear weapon. Wasn't that the predicate
Speaker 1: for these nuclear discussions and accords that Obama was negotiating
Speaker 1: with them back in the day they were moving towards
Speaker 1: a nuclear weapon. We had reason to sit down and
Speaker 1: try to get them to stop doing that. They agreed
Speaker 1: that they would stop, you know, along a bunch of
Speaker 1: guidelines not enriched uranium up beyond twenty percent. They ignored that.
Speaker 1: They continued to enrich create a uranium beyond that for
Speaker 1: what purpose? You don't need enriched uranium to that level
Speaker 1: for civilian energy generation, which is what they kept saying,
Speaker 1: you only need about three or four percent. In Richmond
Speaker 1: they were at sixty sixty.
Speaker 2: And let's I want to remind Christians, which I am
Speaker 2: a Christian Catholic, and the Israel is the holy land
Speaker 2: for us. It's ground Zero's where Jesus walked, It's where
Speaker 2: he was buried, is where he rose, is where he
Speaker 2: was crucified. It's where David the King was. They just
Speaker 2: found artifacts a city. It is a it is an
Speaker 2: incredibly important area for Christians, and I think it's important
Speaker 2: for Christians sometimes just to say that out loud. It's
Speaker 2: not like people think Israel. They think of the Jewish community.
Speaker 2: That is true, but it is the holiest land for Christians.
Speaker 2: And we just have to remind ourselves that not a
Speaker 2: nuclear weapon blowing all of that up. It's just a
Speaker 2: red line that no one crossed and Iran. Iran continued
Speaker 2: to say that was their goal, that was their purpose.
Speaker 2: They didn't say their purpose was, you know, just to
Speaker 2: enrich uranium for power. They were saying death to America
Speaker 2: and death to Israel. And they got closer and closer
Speaker 2: to putting two plus two together, which would have been four,
Speaker 2: and that's a nuclear bomb. And so anybody listening who
Speaker 2: would say, well, this president, former president should have done this,
Speaker 2: I'm gonna just say those former president they weren't as
Speaker 2: close to putting it all together as they are now.
Speaker 2: And this president said, listen, we can't have it. It
Speaker 2: cannot happen. He attempted to speak with them, they decided
Speaker 2: they didn't want to have that conversation. Yeah, and this
Speaker 2: White House decided that they were going to neutralize those
Speaker 2: three sites. Now, what I will say in conclusion, I
Speaker 2: pray that that is as far as we go.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I do too.
Speaker 2: I pray unless there's any other action or aggression, we
Speaker 2: should stay out of that three thousand year fight. Let
Speaker 2: it continue to roll if that's what they want to do.
Speaker 2: It's not our interests. We've got other things that we've
Speaker 2: got to focus on. They now cannot put a nuclear
Speaker 2: weapon together.
Speaker 1: Amen. Brother didn't call looking for an argument with me,
Speaker 1: that's for sure. And at least, you know, Trump, Trump
Speaker 1: at least has demonstrated that he puts a red line
Speaker 1: down and you cross it that he makes good on
Speaker 1: his promises, unlike prior administrations. You know, he's already told them,
Speaker 1: don't hit us. World of hurts coming down on you,
Speaker 1: gonna rain down and you like hell fire if you
Speaker 1: if you hit us. He's on record, and I think
Speaker 1: now at least under this administration, Iranians probably believe them.
Speaker 2: And I think that Putin. I think Putin believes them
Speaker 2: right now, which is the next real discussion. So you're right.
Speaker 2: The the decision to do this also has other ramifications
Speaker 2: that could be very positive that other leaders around the
Speaker 2: world understand that just going and killing Ukrainian and sending
Speaker 2: in drones and doing that in the public square, uh
Speaker 2: you know, of the capital of Ukraine. You just can't
Speaker 2: continue to do it. And it's just been amazing how
Speaker 2: Putin has been calling for peace when he's in the
Speaker 2: middle of a war himself. So hopefully some of the
Speaker 2: other leaders will get the message, Brian Thomas and and
Speaker 2: we can make some progress for peace in Europe and
Speaker 2: it and it also serves as as a deterrent for
Speaker 2: China as they say they want to take Taiwan.
Speaker 1: Yeah, well we will see. One could argue that China
Speaker 1: is getty with excitement that we're involved in. All of
Speaker 1: our military resources are focused in the Middle East, so
Speaker 1: they can continue their nefarious actions in the South China
Speaker 1: Sea and elsewhere. Another topic. A very complicated world we
Speaker 1: live in, Christopher. I share it. I share your prayers
Speaker 1: that you don't get further involved in it and embroiled
Speaker 1: in the larger conflict. God bless you, Christopher. Look forward
Speaker 1: to next Monday. Have a great week by friends. Got
Speaker 1: a well hot day to state in the obvious ninety
Speaker 1: four heat advisory north of one hundred degrees, sunny skies
Speaker 1: clear every night, seventy four. Tomorrow partly cloudy with isolated
Speaker 1: storms possible in the afternoon ninety four. And I'm sure
Speaker 1: the heat index north of one hundred clear every night
Speaker 1: down to seventy two dry and more heat ninety three
Speaker 1: for the high on Wednesday, and again another heath in
Speaker 1: dex north of one hundred plus better chances for pop
Speaker 1: up storms on Wednesday seventy six degrees. Right now, it
Speaker 1: is time for a traffic update from Chuck Ingram.
Speaker 3: From the US UP Traffic Center.

Speaker 1: Seven four at five care Seaton Talk Station, Good morning, Jonie,
Speaker 1: I just got a text message to my friend Jonie,
Speaker 1: so she and her friends are listening to Christopher Smithman and
Speaker 1: I talk and saying they're really enjoying the conversation. I
Speaker 1: certainly appreciate that. I appreciate you tuning into that. And
Speaker 1: folks who are just pulling up the show this morning,
Speaker 1: maybe on your smart a, your iHeartMedia app which you
Speaker 1: got at fifty five care sea dot com, always remember
Speaker 1: to get the podcast at fifty five care sea dot com.
Speaker 1: Really important podcast from last Friday's Tech Frider if Tech
Speaker 1: Friday that made the top of the air news this morning.
Speaker 1: Sixteen billion passwords out there in the dark web that
Speaker 1: would be passwords to your Facebook account, Google, access, Apple,
Speaker 1: and of course the breakdown from Dave Hatter on Friday
Speaker 1: explained how that happened and how it came about and
Speaker 1: what you should do to protect yourself. So heed his advice.
Speaker 1: I always recommend important segment to listen to if you're
Speaker 1: not up at six point thirty when he is on
Speaker 1: the program live. Just had one undred to fifty five
Speaker 1: KRC dot com and get that information valuable. It is
Speaker 1: value information for money. Money's Brian James. So just checking
Speaker 1: the futures market, and really they're down, but only just
Speaker 1: by a tiny fraction, you know, SMP, dal Jones, NASDAC
Speaker 1: and others. So maybe the conflict isn't going to impact
Speaker 1: the markets, but we are going to talk about that,
Speaker 1: most notably oil prices are up some but will they
Speaker 1: stay up? Will the straight of horror moves be shut
Speaker 1: down by the Iranians probably to their detriment if they
Speaker 1: try it? That stocks US dollar all the impact that
Speaker 1: the conflict is having fed keeping rates where they are.
Speaker 1: And then finally we'll talk about the drop dead date
Speaker 1: for when SOSIS security runs out of money. Yeah, not
Speaker 1: good news in that department. Brian James up after the news.
Speaker 5: Big things are happening, breaking news happening.
Speaker 1: Now we'll tell you more at the top of the hour.
Speaker 9: Is too aggressive and over the top fifty five KRC
Speaker 9: the talk station.
Speaker 3: This reporting spongor.
Speaker 8: Dome now too, that's our new word of the years. Yeah,
Speaker 8: heat dome.
Speaker 14: Remember when his hook echo was the first thing, and
Speaker 14: then it was direct show or direct show.
Speaker 1: Now it's a heat dome. So I feel that heat
Speaker 1: dome looks like thunderdome. Get our weapons out and start
Speaker 1: beating the crap out of each other, which certainly could
Speaker 1: happen anyway. Obviously, we attacked Iran over the weekend, the
Speaker 1: United States b two bombers dropping the bunker busters, so
Speaker 1: we can get to the nuclear centrifugees at Fordham, clearly
Speaker 1: on the heels of Israel really having a very successful
Speaker 1: military effort against the Iranians. Question Mark what happens next.
Speaker 1: I know the Iranians are a little miffed. They have
Speaker 1: threatened to do certain things, including shut down the Straight
Speaker 1: of Horror moves And if you look at a map, boy,
Speaker 1: they got a lot of square miles along that straight
Speaker 1: and that that narrow its point, it's only two miles wide.
Speaker 1: And it was reported I saw in the Wall Street
Speaker 1: Journal that it's susceptible to mines, for example, as well
Speaker 1: as launches from the Iranian soil onto the shipping lanes
Speaker 1: and Straight of Horror moves. Although probably not a really
Speaker 1: smart idea for them to do that twenty percent of
Speaker 1: the global oil supply moves through that strait. That is
Speaker 1: a substantial amount. Brian, Where are we in terms of
Speaker 1: futures and how this looks?
Speaker 14: Yeah, and you're right, and that's not something I had
Speaker 14: looked at in a very long time. But you're exactly
Speaker 14: right about that map. That's that's beach territory apparently. Yeah,
Speaker 14: I look on a map that the entire Straight of
Speaker 14: Horror Moves runs along the Iranian border. So where we
Speaker 14: are right now is the headlines. We gotta be careful
Speaker 14: with these headlines, as always, read the article, not the headlines.
Speaker 8: And to make tu it's to say that I know.
Speaker 3: So the Straight of.
Speaker 14: Horn Moves as of now, as of this moment right now,
Speaker 14: has not been closed. They voted to close it, but
Speaker 14: it still has to go through Iran's Supreme National Security Council.
Speaker 14: They have different layers of management or different layers of
Speaker 14: decision making bodies similar to we, and of course everything
Speaker 14: goes through this supreme leader, the IE told. But anyway,
Speaker 14: Parliament voted to close it, they have not made an
Speaker 14: official decision. It is impacting transit. Some tankers are going
Speaker 14: the other direction or pausing their movement through there were
Speaker 14: just avoiding it entirely. In merchant shipping is also being
Speaker 14: advised to avoid those waters. However, the Strait of horm
Speaker 14: Moves is open for now. The reason why haven't they
Speaker 14: just slammed the door. Well, like you just said, twenty
Speaker 14: percent of the world's oil moves through that strait. They
Speaker 14: can't do that without hurting themselves. So if they just
Speaker 14: wanted to hurt everybody else, then they'd have done it
Speaker 14: already and it probably never would have been opened in
Speaker 14: the first place. But that will have an impact on Iran.
Speaker 14: They have to be careful what they do to themselves.
Speaker 14: You know, cut off the nose to spite the face.
Speaker 1: And you know, honestly, we have to acknowledge this is
Speaker 1: all over the backdrop of Irani and oil being subject
Speaker 1: to sanctions right now and their biggest customer China, and
Speaker 1: they would be the biggest loser if they shut down
Speaker 1: the Straight to hormeuse these these these tankers wouldn't be
Speaker 1: able to get to make their way to provide China
Speaker 1: with the oil it needs. And in fact, Secretary of
Speaker 1: State Mark Rubia made the point over the weekend's they
Speaker 1: urged China to remind Iran against the problems that they
Speaker 1: would face by closing the Straight. And China, of course
Speaker 1: is a bigger friend of Iran than anybody else is.
Speaker 1: So that's that's a lot of pressure that could come
Speaker 1: from China. Yeah, and don't forget India.
Speaker 14: India is not not far behind China in terms of
Speaker 14: buying oil from Iran. So yeah, and this is where
Speaker 14: one of those things where it would if you've been
Speaker 14: frustrated with globalization and disappointed at how that outcome has been. Well,
Speaker 14: globalization could be saving us from larger wars right now
Speaker 14: because everything being connected to everything else means that nobody
Speaker 14: can do anything unilaterally. Anything that one one organization or
Speaker 14: one country does will impact any other countries that maybe
Speaker 14: they don't even want to impact. Maybe that's not that's
Speaker 14: not the country that's particularly in the crosshairs, but there's
Speaker 14: always going to be a ricochet action, so it's not
Speaker 14: as easy to disrupt.
Speaker 1: As it used to be. Oh and then when you
Speaker 1: look at the map as well, on the other side
Speaker 1: of the of the strait from Iran, you've got Kuwait,
Speaker 1: which looks like that's the only avenue to get its
Speaker 1: oil out. The United Arab Emirates as well, And while
Speaker 1: Saudi Arabia does have a lot of square miles along
Speaker 1: the straight or Horn moves, I've read that they do
Speaker 1: have pipelines that should allow them to get their oil
Speaker 1: out by alternative means they do.
Speaker 14: Yeah, and so again, nothing is ever as simple as
Speaker 14: it seems forever. So there's going to be a major
Speaker 14: impact here, but it's going to be a whole lot
Speaker 14: of headline, any and article reading this week. We don't
Speaker 14: know what's going to happen this week. But what we
Speaker 14: we have just begun this particular chapter of global history here, Well.
Speaker 1: Yes we have. And the other thing we benefited from
Speaker 1: our own fracking, which allowed us to be one of
Speaker 1: the largest oil producers in the globe. Thankfully we have
Speaker 1: our own resources here, so maybe we'll have less of
Speaker 1: a sting although it being a global commodity, the price
Speaker 1: of a barrel of oil that don't necessarily go up
Speaker 1: if it does get shut down. What about inflation, any
Speaker 1: impact that this conflict's going to have on inflation? I
Speaker 1: saw the headline from USA today what an attack on
Speaker 1: Iran can mean for oil prices, inflation and the US dollar.
Speaker 1: Your take on inflation in the US dollar, Bryan, Well,
Speaker 1: it's not gonna help, let's put it that way.
Speaker 14: So, yes, so these strikes did drive oil prices up briefly.
Speaker 14: As we're sitting here right now, things aren't too too crazy.
Speaker 14: Stock market futures are up just a little bit, and
Speaker 14: oil is kind of calmed down. So early panic, of course,
Speaker 14: because whenever we get this initial headline, we just don't
Speaker 14: know exactly how far this is going to go, how
Speaker 14: long it's going to last, So of course there's always
Speaker 14: a shock. Golf and Israeli equity markets moved around, okay,
Speaker 14: but oil had a big spike. The infrastructure, however, it
Speaker 14: still remains intact. Right This was not an attack on
Speaker 14: oil infrastructure, of course, It was an attack on the
Speaker 14: nuclear side of things. So this is going to be
Speaker 14: more about the handshake agreements that are now probably no
Speaker 14: longer agreements, and seeing how everybody wants to react to it.
Speaker 14: But to your question, if oil settles in about the
Speaker 14: eighty to ninety dollars range right now it's about seventy
Speaker 14: seven bucks of barrel, then headline inflation could be looking
Speaker 14: at it, maybe a bump of point three to point
Speaker 14: four percent this summer core inflation. We're not looking for
Speaker 14: that to move whole lot, and the growth drag from
Speaker 14: those higher gasoline prices is going to be offset a
Speaker 14: little bit by more defense spending and stronger shale activity.
Speaker 8: For those fracking reasons you just mentioned.
Speaker 14: So at this point, knocking furiously on wood or whatever
Speaker 14: this desk is made of, we're not looking for any
Speaker 14: major impacts. Obviously, Let's check again next week and see
Speaker 14: how we come out.
Speaker 1: Right, Honestly, when I saw the futures markets and you
Speaker 1: indicated that up a little bit, they were only down
Speaker 1: when I saw them this morning by like zero point
Speaker 1: one point five pretty much across the board. So clearly
Speaker 1: this has not impacted what people's expectations are about the
Speaker 1: market oil notwithstanding. Do you find that puzzling or do
Speaker 1: you think that's like I guess market force has been
Speaker 1: looking at the it's the globe. It's a globe. It's
Speaker 1: a conflict in one small regional the world airgo. It's
Speaker 1: not going to impact my trading, It's not going to
Speaker 1: impact you know, the companies that I'm invested in. I mean,
Speaker 1: I guess I really expected it, just because of the
Speaker 1: bleak realities of war, that the futures will be down
Speaker 1: a lot more.
Speaker 14: Yeah, And I think I think some of this has
Speaker 14: to do with the idea that over the past several decades,
Speaker 14: the world has just gotten used to chaos, you know,
Speaker 14: I've mentioned this before, but I believe the eighties and
Speaker 14: the nineties where largely nothing happened. And I'm speaking comparatively. Certainly,
Speaker 14: lots of things happened, but comparative to the last couple
Speaker 14: and a half decades, then the eighties and nin ninety
Speaker 14: were kind of the anomaly, and I think we all
Speaker 14: lulled ourselves to sleep thinking that that was normal, that
Speaker 14: things just just just kind of hummed along and really
Speaker 14: nothing crazy, super crazy happened. But reality, if you look
Speaker 14: before that and since then, chaos has been the norm,
Speaker 14: and that's kind of where we are. So I do
Speaker 14: believe that this is another place where the never ending
Speaker 14: news cycle of headlines has helps a little bit because
Speaker 14: we're always we are bombarded with yeah news, good, bad,
Speaker 14: and different whatever news news news, that's all we hear,
Speaker 14: so I think it kind of lessens the impact of
Speaker 14: all of it in the short run. But obviously we
Speaker 14: do have volatility. As you just mentioned. I think you
Speaker 14: just called me out here a little bit. When I
Speaker 14: first got my cup of coffee, Brian, futures were down.
Speaker 14: By my second cup of coffee, they were up, and
Speaker 14: you just pointed out they're down again, not very much.
Speaker 1: But when we're down a fraction of a person, yeah,
Speaker 1: tiny little bits. And again I really expected, you know,
Speaker 1: a couple of single digit numbers and at least some
Speaker 1: of those markets, and I was pleasantly surprised. You know,
Speaker 1: maybe maybe we can just take away something positive from this.
Speaker 1: The world isn't in perfect place. There's chaos going on
Speaker 1: all the time in the world. We just know about
Speaker 1: it more now because of the Internet. And look, we
Speaker 1: all managed to live, thrive and survive, notwithstanding in the
Speaker 1: challenges here and abroad. So something positive might come from this.
Speaker 1: Who knows. Anyway, We'll continue with Brian James, Fed keeping
Speaker 1: rates right where they are. I was reminded to Carter
Speaker 1: pay Jimmy Carter and Paul Brian mean, we will have
Speaker 1: a little conversation about that, given Trump and his arguments
Speaker 1: with the FED on interest rates. A D fifteen right
Speaker 1: now fifty five Guy Zeed Talk station quick mention for
Speaker 1: Gate to Heaven Catholic Cemetery. You know, summer invites reflection
Speaker 1: and the Gate of Heaven's mission. Warmer months meaningful time
Speaker 1: to walk the grounds, visit loved ones, and connect with
Speaker 1: the peace and purpose of Gate of Heaven's mission, which
Speaker 1: is to affirm the sacredness of life at all times,
Speaker 1: honoring life on sacred ground and more than a cemetery,
Speaker 1: it's a sacred space where the dignity of every person
Speaker 1: is respected and life is honored from beginning to end.
Speaker 1: Such a gorgeous park like setting, its tranquil landscape, surroundings
Speaker 1: ideal for prayer, reflection and remembrance. Of course, creating a
Speaker 1: comforting experience for the visitors to Gate of Heaven, and
Speaker 1: all are welcome at Gate of Heaven. So visit Gate
Speaker 1: of Heaven dot org you learn more all about it,
Speaker 1: and maybe you would consider being buried there. Okay, Catholic cemetery,
Speaker 1: you know the information Gate of Heaven dot.
Speaker 5: Org fifty five KRC seen right now if you have KRSE.
Speaker 1: The talk station Happy Monday, right Thomas with Money Monday's
Speaker 1: Brian James talking money issues and of course the ongoing
Speaker 1: battle between the Trump administration and the FED chair Jerome
Speaker 1: pal rates. I guess it currently are four point two
Speaker 1: four to four point five percent, and he announced he's
Speaker 1: planning on leaving them there. I guess there's a lot
Speaker 1: of question marks floating around labor market. I guess is
Speaker 1: growing at what he called a solid pace uncertainty expressed
Speaker 1: about the impact of US tariff policies on inflation, and Brian,
Speaker 1: let's start there, because the whole world was going to
Speaker 1: come to a screeching halt. We're all going to die
Speaker 1: because of Trump's tariff policies. And I know he's sort
Speaker 1: of used it as a mechanism to sit down with
Speaker 1: some of the countries and negotiate better terms and conditions.
Speaker 1: But regardless of whether anything's been negotiated or agreed upon,
Speaker 1: it doesn't seem to have had a profound impact on
Speaker 1: our day to day lives, has it.
Speaker 8: No, not really. I mean there are those out there now.
Speaker 14: I'm sure there's somebody screaming at they're always advice or
Speaker 14: when shield or whatever, saying hey, this hit me in
Speaker 14: the face last week. And I do have personal friends
Speaker 14: who who have had to deal with the China tariff,
Speaker 14: specifically the own factories and things that bring over raw materials,
Speaker 14: and this has been an extremely stressful time for those folks.
Speaker 14: So certainly don't mean to imply that it's not out there. However,
Speaker 14: I think what you're saying is this has not changed
Speaker 14: the daily routine and the lifestyle of the average American,
Speaker 14: and I can and I can vouch for that myself.
Speaker 14: I sit down with average Americans every single day at
Speaker 14: this table and we do financial planning, and the only
Speaker 14: real concerns I hear is just general complaints about the
Speaker 14: price of things in general, not so much that somebody
Speaker 14: has had to absolutely change, you know, what they what
Speaker 14: they what they're doing. And I think this that's why
Speaker 14: we're still seeing the you know we were talking about
Speaker 14: earlier that even the crazy headlines have not impacted the market.
Speaker 14: The market is actually almost up to an all time high.
Speaker 7: Again.
Speaker 14: We of course gave back a little bit obviously with
Speaker 14: when the strikes became news last week, but at this
Speaker 14: point we're not so much concerned about yet about having
Speaker 14: to change how we do things. That would be coming
Speaker 14: through if if consumers were changing their thinking, then that
Speaker 14: would be coming through in the markets rather quickly. However,
Speaker 14: consumer spending came out okay in the most recent report.
Speaker 14: Remains to be seen, of course, what comes in the
Speaker 14: following months, But at this point, knock on wood, we're
Speaker 14: not it's not looking so scary out there.
Speaker 1: Well, and you know, I'm old enough to remember how
Speaker 1: bad things used to be. I mean, four point five percent.
Speaker 1: It's a lot compared to where it was before. But
Speaker 1: it isn't eighteen or whatever percent it was back in
Speaker 1: the Carter days when he was screaming at Paul Volker about,
Speaker 1: you know, lowering the interest rates. We had stagflation going on.
Speaker 1: That it was a very complicated situation.
Speaker 7: Yeah.
Speaker 14: Now now again, I always want to be fair to
Speaker 14: people who aren't in your and my fortunate situation of
Speaker 14: having ridiculously low mortgage rates. I would not want to
Speaker 14: be buying a house right now, not necessarily because of
Speaker 14: the interest rates. You're right, that's a relatively short term thing,
Speaker 14: and historically speaking, a six seven percent mortgage is still
Speaker 14: low over the last century. That is still a low
Speaker 14: mortgage rate relatively speaking. It's the purchase price, Brian, that's
Speaker 14: the part. When you couple that with the interest rate,
Speaker 14: it just makes it unattainable. And that's what's making it
Speaker 14: really hard for you know, for our kids, yours and
Speaker 14: mine are at that age to really pull the trigger there.
Speaker 14: So people want to see those rates come down. The
Speaker 14: President certainly does, but Jerome pal is not convinced yet
Speaker 14: that if he does that we won't quickly quickly quickly
Speaker 14: see inflation.
Speaker 1: Any tea leaf reading on the housing market, You're right,
Speaker 1: houses are outrageously expensive, and of course that came on
Speaker 1: the heels of COVID nineteen, when every man, woman and
Speaker 1: child would realize they could work remotely and then started
Speaker 1: buying up properties in the four corners of the United
Speaker 1: States of America as they fled California, New York. But
Speaker 1: California New York real estates still outrageously high. And I
Speaker 1: just don't see an end in sight on this. There's
Speaker 1: not a big, at least from my impression, a big
Speaker 1: build up of builders out there in the world that
Speaker 1: are building what you and I might call affordable homes
Speaker 1: or more affordable homes. So as long as the market
Speaker 1: is what it is and they keep building these large,
Speaker 1: you know, eight, nine hundred thousand dollars homes, there's not
Speaker 1: going to be any way to solve this problem them
Speaker 1: for the younger folks.
Speaker 8: Yeah, And it's it's really.
Speaker 14: It's the affordability that you mentioned there, that that's really
Speaker 14: not where the builders are. There's plenty of building going on,
Speaker 14: that's that's not the you know, that's not the issue.
Speaker 14: There's I'm up here in Liberty Township and we've lost
Speaker 14: a few more cornfields here over the last month and
Speaker 14: a half or so. I'm sure it happening. But but yeah,
Speaker 14: numbers wise, housing starts are down about ten percent, building
Speaker 14: permits dropped about two percent.
Speaker 8: So these are very recent numbers here. So that suggests
Speaker 8: that the.
Speaker 14: That the market's going to see, you know, not a
Speaker 14: whole lot of upside in the months ahead, But that
Speaker 14: does I don't I don't think it's lack of upside
Speaker 14: we're looking for. I think we're looking for for downside
Speaker 14: for like you said, for affordable housing. Affordable housing doesn't
Speaker 14: mean that we build a small house and price it
Speaker 14: where it is right now.
Speaker 8: They're currently unaffordable.
Speaker 14: We need to find a way for younger people to
Speaker 14: get a foothold so that they can start their lives,
Speaker 14: start their families, and begin to grow forward, because that's
Speaker 14: ultimately what's going to drive the economy over the next
Speaker 14: several decades, not you and me buying you know, a
Speaker 14: nice house.
Speaker 8: To retire into.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, what really bothers It's almost like the
Speaker 1: answer to the problem is some sort of you know,
Speaker 1: massive recession come depression kind of thing in order to
Speaker 1: force the prices down would be catastrophic.
Speaker 8: Of course.
Speaker 14: Yeah, and that's you know, we're certainly not rooting for
Speaker 14: that neither, right, We're rooting for more of this soft
Speaker 14: landing stuff. Remember in three years ago or so, when
Speaker 14: soft landing was kind of the best outcome anybody could
Speaker 14: ever think of. Yeah, we never had that soft landing.
Speaker 14: We just kind of stopped talking about it, which I
Speaker 14: think is what a soft landing is.
Speaker 1: I think you're right, we just got used to it.
Speaker 1: Although the norm is not good for America's younger folks
Speaker 1: who are looking to start out and you know, invest
Speaker 1: in a home and at least get some equity build
Speaker 1: up as opposed to just paying rent the rest of
Speaker 1: their lives. Brian James the bad news coming up next.
Speaker 1: Not that this always rosy news, but yeah, the reports
Speaker 1: out so Security, the timeline's not looking good. One more
Speaker 1: with Brian James from all Worth Financial.
Speaker 5: Be right back fifty five KRC.
Speaker 1: Hey, if you're listening to me right now, and we
Speaker 1: may as well get everybody the cold, hard bad news.
Speaker 1: So Security administration's got new trust fund depletion dates. I
Speaker 1: saw the Wall Street Journal article published on the nineteenth
Speaker 1: of June, social Security ICEBERG gets closer. Official trustees now
Speaker 1: estimate the need for a twenty three percent cut and
Speaker 1: benefits plus eleven percent to medicare in eight years. You know,
Speaker 1: our elected officials can ignore the problems that we're facing
Speaker 1: all day long, and they have been for years. I mean,
Speaker 1: you and I have talked about this before as a topic.
Speaker 1: It's been a generally running topic of conversation for decades
Speaker 1: in terms of where the direction social Security was going.
Speaker 1: And it seems like the day of wreckoning is now
Speaker 1: coming a lot sooner than anybody really projected. We're looking
Speaker 1: at insolvency in twenty thirty three. Yeah, here's the thing.
Speaker 14: I want to make sure everybody knows that insolvency does
Speaker 14: not does not and I want to stamp my feet
Speaker 14: and say this does not mean there will not be
Speaker 14: a Social Security check right now. There is more money
Speaker 14: flowing into the Social Security system than flows out. That's
Speaker 14: the surplus. It's not a pile of money that slowly
Speaker 14: draining to zero over here years. Next time you get paid,
Speaker 14: look at the top half your pay stub. Look at
Speaker 14: that fight a ligne. That is what you are paying
Speaker 14: for Social Security. The only way that the fund will
Speaker 14: completely go away is if that fight a ligne comes
Speaker 14: off of your pay stub. Now, there's those out there
Speaker 14: who would very much want the whole system to go
Speaker 14: away and for taxes to just not be a thing.
Speaker 14: That isn't realistic. We're gonna have an awful lot of
Speaker 14: people wandering the streets in their golden years. That ain't happening.
Speaker 14: So FICA taxes will be there, we will be paying them,
Speaker 14: and Social Security will be distributing income as it always has.
Speaker 14: So what does it actually mean though? So this is
Speaker 14: what Brian, would you just said? So benefits at this
Speaker 14: point are estimated. If nothing changes, then the inflows that
Speaker 14: the socicurity system will receive from those pay dubs will
Speaker 14: only cover about seventy seven percent of the pre crisis
Speaker 14: of Social Security benefits. So simply means that you, whatever
Speaker 14: your report says, if you're trying to do your own
Speaker 14: financial planning, look at your financial report that you can
Speaker 14: pull off of SSA dot gov or my Social Security report.
Speaker 14: Take that number for full retirement age, which is going
Speaker 14: to be somewhere between sixty six and sixty seven. That's
Speaker 14: the dollar amount you're supposed to receive every year or
Speaker 14: every month and knock about twenty to thirty percent off
Speaker 14: of it. As we're sitting here right now, that is
Speaker 14: the direct impact that we will see unless something changes
Speaker 14: over the next eight years.
Speaker 1: Well, do you think this would change the direction of
Speaker 1: people's behavior in terms of their planning for their own
Speaker 1: financial future. It certainly sends a warning shot over about
Speaker 1: folks who are relying on so secure like, oh my god,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna have to deal with twenty five percent less
Speaker 1: or whatever. But if you're young enough, we can start
Speaker 1: planning for your future. You can get around this problem
Speaker 1: that's looming.
Speaker 8: Absolutely.
Speaker 14: But then, and the answer to that is the same
Speaker 14: as if there weren't a problem. Save and save a
Speaker 14: lot of money. You know, you want to be in
Speaker 14: control of your future anyway, regardless of social securities issues.
Speaker 14: You still want to be able to call your shot.
Speaker 14: So the answer is, make sure you're saving and saving
Speaker 14: a good chunk, invest aggressively, don't make a mess of
Speaker 14: your credit. Do those things for thirty thirty to thirty
Speaker 14: or so years if when you're just getting started, and
Speaker 14: you'll be okay in the long run. Now that's said,
Speaker 14: there's a lot of things that could change. Something has
Speaker 14: to get We can't simply plow forward here. But as
Speaker 14: a society, we have been unwilling to elect people and
Speaker 14: unwilling to listen to those elected about the sacrifices that
Speaker 14: we will need to make. And it is quite simple.
Speaker 14: There's a million ways we can do this. But at
Speaker 14: the end of the day, Brian, we are either lowering
Speaker 14: benefits or raising taxes. There's a lot of ways that
Speaker 14: could happen. We are lowering benefits by simply reducing the
Speaker 14: dollar amount. We could raise the retirement age, make it
Speaker 14: have to be older before you receive that money. We
Speaker 14: could also in terms of raising taxes. It's not necessarily
Speaker 14: just a percentage that could be raised. They could raise
Speaker 14: the wage cap. Right now, nobody who makes over one
Speaker 14: hundred and seventy six thousand dollars, nobody gets taxed above
Speaker 14: one hundred and seventy six thousand dollars for Social Security
Speaker 14: that is capped. They could remove that. They could raise it.
Speaker 14: They could increase the payroll tax rate. There's a million
Speaker 14: ways this can happen, but more needs to flow in,
Speaker 14: or less needs to.
Speaker 8: Come out, or more likely a combination of both.
Speaker 1: Yeah, the one hundred and seventy six thousand dollars that's
Speaker 1: been around a long time, hasn't it.
Speaker 8: Oh yeah, it goes up. It goes up, you know,
Speaker 8: every year a little bit.
Speaker 14: But the point is there's a lot, a lot of
Speaker 14: income earned by people that are that is way above that.
Speaker 14: If we simply remove that cap, which that's a pretty
Speaker 14: low cap when you think about the three hundred and
Speaker 14: thirty million people out there and the range of incomes
Speaker 14: that exist in this country, that cap is really really low.
Speaker 14: If we remove that cap, that was the one thing
Speaker 14: that we did, the whole problem goes away. It goes
Speaker 14: poof overnight, Brian. But we're not willing to do that.
Speaker 14: That's a sacrifice. This country, the society is not willing
Speaker 14: to make sacrifices yet. We're going to be forced to eventually,
Speaker 14: but we prefer to kick the cant so far.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and maybe there's a bright light in this inability
Speaker 1: to buy a home reality younger people are facing. You know,
Speaker 1: I know there's always the problem of rent, but rent's
Speaker 1: kind of static, Brian. And you don't have to replace
Speaker 1: the roof when you're paying rent. You don't have to
Speaker 1: replace the water heater.
Speaker 3: You don't.
Speaker 1: I mean, there's a multitude of things that go into
Speaker 1: home ownership which are very unpleasant from time to time.
Speaker 1: Maintenance enough, keep a loon, plus insurance. Maybe they'll find
Speaker 1: a better resource in putting their money and socking their
Speaker 1: money away in an investment. And since not having to
Speaker 1: deal with the expense of home ownership, it can be Yes.
Speaker 14: The thing that scares me though, is now one of
Speaker 14: your largest expenses is completely subject to inflation. Your and
Speaker 14: my mortgage payments aren't going to change based on the
Speaker 14: inflat but rent absolutely will.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and there's always that pesky energy bill which keeps
Speaker 1: going through the roof as well.
Speaker 8: We're all stuck with that.
Speaker 1: Lots of layers on this, Brian James, but I certainly
Speaker 1: appreciate you raising and bring us everybody's attention each Monday.
Speaker 1: On Monday Monday, have a great week. My friend will
Speaker 1: do this again next week.
Speaker 8: Stay cool, talk to you next week.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you too, man, It is hot out there. Five
Speaker 1: one three seven fifty five hundred, eight hundred eighty two
Speaker 1: three talk pound five fifty on AT and T phones.
Speaker 1: It's got something you want to talk about. It's a
Speaker 1: great time to call in. Got a couple more segments
Speaker 1: to deal with here in the morning show. I hope
Speaker 1: you can stick around. I'll be right back.
Speaker 6: This is fifty five KARC and iHeartRadio Station.
Speaker 1: Hey thirty nine. If it's five KRCD Talk station, Thomas
Speaker 1: inviting phone calls, you care to talk about something specific?
Speaker 1: Five one, three, seven, four, nine, fifty five, eight hundred
Speaker 1: and eight two to three talk Pound five fifty on
Speaker 1: AT and T Founds. I went through the constitutional realities
Speaker 1: that are obviously brought up with Trump's use of military force.
Speaker 1: Many arguing he's well within his powers under the War
Speaker 1: Powers Act. I'm arguing that he has authority under the
Speaker 1: Authorization for Use of Military Force from nineteen ninety one.
Speaker 1: Of course, the likes of Congressman Mass you believe it
Speaker 1: to be an unconstitutional declaration of war which power resides
Speaker 1: exclusively in the hands of Congress, unless you look at
Speaker 1: the War Powers Act, which pretty much says it doesn't.
Speaker 1: So whole lots of questions out there, and you know
Speaker 1: this has been done so many times before by so
Speaker 1: many different administrations, going all the way back to Reagan.
Speaker 1: You got Bush, you got Obama, you have Clinton, they've
Speaker 1: all done this, and I know, two rights don't make
Speaker 1: a wrong, or two wrongs rather don't make it right.
Speaker 1: But you have like a dozen quote unquote prior wrongs.
Speaker 1: It does provide some measure of justification for Trump doing
Speaker 1: what he did. He can point to history and you
Speaker 1: know what, what is the accountability? I go back to
Speaker 1: Steve's call, you know about you know if your daughter
Speaker 1: or your wife got raped? You know is the whole
Speaker 1: Michael Dukaukas question. He danced around it and gave this
Speaker 1: very straightforward legal response, like, well, the system will end
Speaker 1: up dealing with the situation when many people, you can
Speaker 1: probably include me among them, would probably take matters into
Speaker 1: our own hands and let a jury of our peers
Speaker 1: decide whether or not whether or not we can get
Speaker 1: a nullification verdict from the jury. But what's what's the
Speaker 1: accountability here? I mean is the answer impeachment? I all
Speaker 1: I can say is good luck on that one. I
Speaker 1: mean this, this shouldn't be a question of whose ox
Speaker 1: is being goored since Democrats have done this many times before,
Speaker 1: see Clinton, see Obama. Nobody called about impeaching them, and
Speaker 1: there was some flagrant violations. I mean they didn't even
Speaker 1: pay attention to the War Powers Resolution in terms of
Speaker 1: the timing and the length of time when they entered
Speaker 1: into military involvement. So, but you got a lot of
Speaker 1: complicated layers here, layers that have never been resolved in
Speaker 1: the courts anyway, Like the War Powers Resolution. Is it
Speaker 1: an acceptable delegation of military authorization from Congress to the
Speaker 1: president under the War Powers Resolution of nineteen seventy three.
Speaker 1: It's never been tested in courts. So Trump would stand
Speaker 1: behind that and say, listen, I follow the rules. I
Speaker 1: notified Congress within the appropriate time. The sixty day window
Speaker 1: from military activity just started ticking on Saturday, so he's
Speaker 1: got a couple of months before he has to start
Speaker 1: widening things down, and that gives him an extra thirty day.
Speaker 1: So it's a total of like ninety days at least
Speaker 1: as of right now, there's no more military action involved
Speaker 1: in that. Ball is squarely in the Iranian's hands now.
Speaker 1: I think it's easy to figure out what we might
Speaker 1: do if the Iranians directly started launching military actions against
Speaker 1: our bases that are in the area. Other American assets
Speaker 1: tried to blow up some of our ships at sea
Speaker 1: out there that are trying to protect the region any
Speaker 1: number of things where Iran is directly engaged. But how
Speaker 1: do they have they been waging their wars, of course
Speaker 1: against Israels through their terrorist proxies. The Iranians weren't shown up
Speaker 1: and mowing down the Israelis. That was the you know
Speaker 1: Hamas or you know the Huthis or whichever rebel Iranians
Speaker 1: supported terrorist group out there you want to put your
Speaker 1: point your finger at.
Speaker 8: That sort of.
Speaker 1: Removes Iran from the equation. Yes, they are funding them
Speaker 1: and supporting them, but is that sufficient? And I use
Speaker 1: that in the context of what Trump might do in
Speaker 1: the event, and it's on everybody's radar. Homeland Security and
Speaker 1: everybody else has got major US cities on high alert
Speaker 1: stemming from the unregulated, unchecked flow of humanity during the
Speaker 1: Biden administration and the two million known godaways and what
Speaker 1: affiliation they may or may not have with the various
Speaker 1: forces out there like Iranian terrorist groups, and so New York, Miami,
Speaker 1: Los Angeles, all the mayors are saying, hey, we got
Speaker 1: heightened alert here out of abundance of caution. We're deploying
Speaker 1: additional resources to religious, cultural, and diplomatic sites across in
Speaker 1: this particular statement from the New York mayor across New
Speaker 1: York City, but a similar statement was issued by Mayor
Speaker 1: bass Out in Los Angeles regarding the same kind of
Speaker 1: thing places of warship, community gathering spaces and other sensitive sites.
Speaker 1: We're going to have more law enforcement and it could
Speaker 1: happen anywhere at any time. The background of all this
Speaker 1: is what we've seen now for the past I don't
Speaker 1: know how many years since the first Trump administration, organized
Speaker 1: activities paid for and funded by and organized by angry
Speaker 1: non governmental organizations who are trying to undermine the United
Speaker 1: States written large, and you know, even I predicted it,
Speaker 1: no magical prediction when the illegal immigrant population was coming over.
Speaker 1: If you get an administration that's interested in forcing immigration
Speaker 1: law and it's wanting to deport them, they will organize
Speaker 1: and take to the streets, which clearly they did. You
Speaker 1: got the No King's Rally. That's just basically an anti
Speaker 1: Trump rally, period, end of story. Anything Trump does we
Speaker 1: don't like. We think he's just this outrageous person and
Speaker 1: you know, no Trump, okay, But then you have people
Speaker 1: that actually have committed ideological motivations, like for example, terrorist cells.
Speaker 1: So let's assume for the sake of discussion, that there
Speaker 1: are terror cells out there, and that Iran does if
Speaker 1: he issues some fotware or whatever they want to call it,
Speaker 1: you know, death to America, unleashes the terrorist cells, tells
Speaker 1: them to do their dirty work. Are you going to
Speaker 1: be able to trace that back to Iran? A domestic
Speaker 1: terrorist action? Here? You got a group of crazy religious
Speaker 1: fundamentalists which come in all stripes. These days, the Internet's
Speaker 1: been an amazing thing. It's had a tremendous impact on
Speaker 1: the minds of our young people, so much so that
Speaker 1: some crazy philosophy can creep into the mind of your
Speaker 1: child in your basement on the computer that would turn
Speaker 1: them into some crazy religious zealot willing to do some
Speaker 1: harm to society. Now, if that influence came from the Iranians,
Speaker 1: or they were fundamentalists Muslims, would that mean that Iran
Speaker 1: is behind any given attack? Providing Trump with a means
Speaker 1: to make an argument that further military involvement is necessary
Speaker 1: over in Iran, that's a stretch. I mean, as long
Speaker 1: as is Ron's fingers aren't directly on the trigger, then
Speaker 1: you're gonna have a difficult leap to get from something
Speaker 1: happens here to a justification for further attacks on Iran.
Speaker 1: So be ever vigilant and be careful. And you know
Speaker 1: I would argue, don't participate in don't get involved in
Speaker 1: the craziness, because there's going to be a lot of
Speaker 1: craziness out there. There already is, and I just only
Speaker 1: see it as getting more in the aftermath of this.
Speaker 1: It's one more thing for people to protest about. As
Speaker 1: if we didn't have enough things to protest about. They
Speaker 1: already started this anti strike on Iran protest not very
Speaker 1: well attended. If you see the photographs, it'll it's actually
Speaker 1: worthy of a chuckle. But this is just getting started.

Speaker 1: Eight fifty to fifty five KRSD talk station Christopher Smithaman
Speaker 1: this morning all about crime and the failure of the
Speaker 1: City of Cincinnati elected officials to really say anything in
Speaker 1: support of the police and the headlines this morning they
Speaker 1: didn't get to the local ones. We had a shooting
Speaker 1: in downtown this morning at seventh and Walnut, twenty nine
Speaker 1: year a woman got shot in a thigh after a brawl.
Speaker 1: All the other headlines man hospitalized after shooting in downtown Cincinnai.
Speaker 1: This one on yesterday. Guy got shot at third and Walnut.
Speaker 1: Crawled all the way up to the Kroger on Central Parkway,
Speaker 1: where he collapsed. It's okay, apparently no suspect on that one.
Speaker 1: One person got shot outside of a Forest Park restaurant.
Speaker 1: Happened Sunday afternoon, three pm. Mail thirty five years old,
Speaker 1: shot once in the chest. Condition currently unknown. No suspecting custody,
Speaker 1: Gallatin County. You're not free of it. Five juveniles attained.
Speaker 1: One still at large after at least one suspect opened
Speaker 1: fire at a vehicle and then led deputies on to chase.
Speaker 1: Happened Sunday morning. Man fatally shot mount Orbs. Suspecting custody
Speaker 1: in that case. Happened Sunday morning, three thirty in the morning,
Speaker 1: Brookshire Way. Twenty year old Ryan Ranke. The other one
Speaker 1: thirty nine year old Gary Teeter Theater, suffering from multiple
Speaker 1: gunshot wounds, pronounced dead at the scene. And a woman
Speaker 1: pulled a gun out during a parking lot dispute at
Speaker 1: a Northern Kentucky costco Florence, Kentucky. Do you think we're
Speaker 1: all on maybe a little bit of edge here, a
Speaker 1: little too much high tension, people willing to just do
Speaker 1: really stupid, stupid stupid things. Thank you, Joe Strecker. You know,
Speaker 1: it's like the world and people have turned into happy Gilmore.
Speaker 1: Remember that movie Hockey Player Plays Golf. They ended up
Speaker 1: getting to play golf because he had a drive. Anyway,
Speaker 1: his temper was Adam Sandler. I mean, you know, I'm
Speaker 1: not a fan, but his temper was just about as
Speaker 1: short as any temper could be, and he would just
Speaker 1: immediately resort to some violent act, like beating the living
Speaker 1: crap out of someone over something they said. There was
Speaker 1: kind of a funny, uh part of the movie where
Speaker 1: he and Bob Barker were playing in a pro am
Speaker 1: together and he tried to beat the crap out of
Speaker 1: Bob Barker, and Bob Barker beat the crap out of him.
Speaker 1: But the point being, we're all acting like that character.
Speaker 1: Cooler heads need to prevail, you know, in so far
Speaker 1: as this, you know, my concern over the growing number
Speaker 1: of protests and all these activists in the street and
Speaker 1: some of the violence that springs from it. I get
Speaker 1: this massive concern living in the back of my head
Speaker 1: this is going to provide if it gets worse, And
Speaker 1: it just seems with current state of affairs and my
Speaker 1: point about people having a short temper and engaging in
Speaker 1: terrible activities and their willingness to really literally break the
Speaker 1: law in the name of their cause, that if this grows,
Speaker 1: then it's going to provide this administration an excuse to
Speaker 1: declare martial law. How well would that go over? Suspension
Speaker 1: of the rid of Habeus corpus or means those evil
Speaker 1: police forces can pick you up and lock you up
Speaker 1: and maybe drop the key someplace and not explain to you,
Speaker 1: like Franz Kafka's the trial, what's you are charged with?
Speaker 1: Maybe they can't have anything and no lawyer can pull
Speaker 1: you out of jail. With the suspension of the rid
Speaker 1: of Habe's corpus a worst case scenario, I will agree,
Speaker 1: And maybe that's what the evil forces are looking for,
Speaker 1: a way to attack the system of government that would
Speaker 1: suspend your constitutional rights, a constitution that they all seem
Speaker 1: to uniformly hate. I don't know just make an observation, folks,
Speaker 1: but considering the gunman is dead after opening fire to
Speaker 1: religious church service having a Wayne Michigan, remember there is
Speaker 1: something you can do, and that is be prepared, a
Speaker 1: point I did make earlier in the program. This crazy guy,
Speaker 1: they think he was emotionally imbalanced. They had no prior
Speaker 1: records of him. He was not on a police radar anyway,
Speaker 1: armed in tactical gear, had a long gun and a handgun,
Speaker 1: and he started opening fire. Only one person got shot.
Speaker 1: No one died except the person who wanted to engage
Speaker 1: in what they believed to be was a mass shooting.
Speaker 1: They had a plan in place. They had security officials
Speaker 1: at the church, people who knew how to operate a
Speaker 1: firearm and successfully operated putting this crazy person down. When
Speaker 1: police are minutes away, seconds count. It helps if you're
Speaker 1: in the same position of these folks in Wayne, Michigan.
Speaker 1: If that church were Crosspoint Church. Congratulations for thinking ahead
Speaker 1: and preparing for hopefully something that never ever, ever ever
Speaker 1: would happen, but could have eight fifty five afty five
Speaker 1: KR see talk station Daniel Davis Deep Dives chamorrow. That
Speaker 1: should be a fascinating conversation with a retired lieutenant colonel
Speaker 1: military analyst, Breitbart Inside Scoop, the return of that phone calls,
Speaker 1: and a whole lot more topics to talk about it.
Speaker 1: I hope you can tune into the Morning Show tomorrow.
