Good morning, 4 00:00:26.519 --> 00:00:35.719 Tuesday morning, April of fifteenth. Today is tax today. Do 5 00:00:35.799 --> 00:00:38.439 I really need to say any more about it? I'm 6 00:00:38.439 --> 00:00:40.520 sure there's many of you listening right now who know 7 00:00:40.679 --> 00:00:44.600 full well what day it is. Checks are being written, 8 00:00:45.159 --> 00:00:48.920 credit cards are being debited, money is flowing to the 9 00:00:48.920 --> 00:00:53.359 federal government. It's going to be fantastic. And for those 10 00:00:53.399 --> 00:00:57.280 of you who got a little money back this year, congratulations. 11 00:00:57.799 --> 00:01:02.600 We'll see what happens next year, but my taxes will 12 00:01:02.640 --> 00:01:04.760 be on their way as soon as I'm done with 13 00:01:04.799 --> 00:01:08.319 this show today, we'll go home and make the final 14 00:01:08.359 --> 00:01:11.840 few key strokes on the keyboard and send that bad 15 00:01:11.879 --> 00:01:15.040 boy off into the abyss, and we'll see what happens. 16 00:01:15.079 --> 00:01:16.840 See if I get audited this year. I don't think 17 00:01:16.879 --> 00:01:22.640 I will, but you never know. Got a letter one 18 00:01:22.640 --> 00:01:24.280 time from the I R. I went it, went out 19 00:01:24.280 --> 00:01:29.400 and opened the mailbox and you see that, see that 20 00:01:29.439 --> 00:01:32.920 logo on there, that I R S logo, And that 21 00:01:32.959 --> 00:01:36.760 feeling is if you've ever if you've ever opened your 22 00:01:36.760 --> 00:01:38.519 mailbox and seen a letter from the I R S, 23 00:01:38.599 --> 00:01:43.840 you know what that feeling is. It's it's the wave 24 00:01:44.000 --> 00:01:47.599 of dread that comes over you at that very moment. 25 00:01:49.120 --> 00:01:54.560 Is I'm not gonna say it's life changing, but it 26 00:01:54.560 --> 00:01:57.359 it is. It is a feeling you don't forget. Hard 27 00:01:57.400 --> 00:02:01.439 to describe. And I went in and I put it 28 00:02:01.480 --> 00:02:03.640 on the table and I stared at it for a second. 29 00:02:03.640 --> 00:02:06.799 I'm thinking, what on earth could this be? And my 30 00:02:06.840 --> 00:02:08.520 wife walked in and she looked at it, and she 31 00:02:08.599 --> 00:02:10.280 and then we looked at each other for a little bit. 32 00:02:10.800 --> 00:02:13.240 You know which one of us is going to open it? 33 00:02:13.319 --> 00:02:16.479 She was. She was the braver of the two of us, 34 00:02:16.479 --> 00:02:21.360 and she's the one that that opened it up. It 35 00:02:21.400 --> 00:02:25.360 wasn't an audit. It was some some technicality, I don't 36 00:02:25.400 --> 00:02:28.719 know some it was some minor thing. But they don't 37 00:02:28.719 --> 00:02:31.680 tell you that on the outside of the envelope. You 38 00:02:31.759 --> 00:02:33.520 have to look in there and see what it is 39 00:02:35.000 --> 00:02:38.159 that that is it is. It is, without a doubt, 40 00:02:38.759 --> 00:02:43.840 one of the most unmistakable and most unpleasant feelings you 41 00:02:43.879 --> 00:02:45.800 can possibly have. If you get a letter from the 42 00:02:45.800 --> 00:02:48.080 I R. S in your mailbox, and I pray that 43 00:02:48.080 --> 00:02:51.159 that does not happen to anyone listening to this station 44 00:02:51.240 --> 00:02:54.639 this morning. And if it has, maybe you can tell 45 00:02:54.639 --> 00:02:59.159 me your experience. Uh five one three seven fifty five hundred, 46 00:02:59.199 --> 00:03:02.800 Dan Carolyn for b Thomas. I was in yesterday. I 47 00:03:02.800 --> 00:03:06.039 get to do today and then tomorrow and Thursday, so 48 00:03:06.120 --> 00:03:08.560 I am looking forward to that. Kevin Gordon, I believe, 49 00:03:08.639 --> 00:03:13.080 is going to be here on Friday, so that'll be big. 50 00:03:13.159 --> 00:03:15.479 Later on a little bit later on this morning in 51 00:03:15.520 --> 00:03:17.840 the seven o'clock hour, going to talk to James Bogan 52 00:03:18.879 --> 00:03:24.599 and he's a guy that he's a legal analyst, local attorney, 53 00:03:25.479 --> 00:03:28.919 and we're talking about some issues that he is and 54 00:03:29.000 --> 00:03:37.560 mostly the Title nine stuff with President Trump and these 55 00:03:37.599 --> 00:03:42.479 different states and universities and what is going. It's getting 56 00:03:42.479 --> 00:03:43.319 a little confusing. 57 00:03:45.360 --> 00:03:45.560 You know. 58 00:03:45.879 --> 00:03:51.759 When when Title nine started, it was supposed to be 59 00:03:53.759 --> 00:03:58.840 a program that put women on a more equal footing 60 00:03:59.080 --> 00:04:05.319 with men as a related to sports. But the way 61 00:04:05.360 --> 00:04:08.719 it was constructed, in the way it was executed, it 62 00:04:08.800 --> 00:04:10.639 just left me with a really bad taste in my 63 00:04:10.719 --> 00:04:17.360 mouth because it penalized universities, it penalized men who were 64 00:04:17.399 --> 00:04:21.800 in sports, and it wasn't based on anything that was sensible. 65 00:04:23.480 --> 00:04:28.279 And the way it was constructed was that you had 66 00:04:28.319 --> 00:04:33.360 to if you were a university and you had X 67 00:04:33.480 --> 00:04:37.759 number of men playing sports. Let's say you had two hundred. 68 00:04:37.800 --> 00:04:39.360 Just for the sake of argument, let's say you had 69 00:04:39.360 --> 00:04:43.480 two hundred men who were involved in your sports programs 70 00:04:44.639 --> 00:04:50.120 at a particular university. Then if you had that many men, 71 00:04:50.160 --> 00:04:54.399 then you had to have I don't know, a corresponding 72 00:04:54.480 --> 00:05:00.399 number of women who were participating in sports. Let's say 73 00:05:00.800 --> 00:05:05.000 let's say that number is one hundred and fifty. Well, 74 00:05:05.040 --> 00:05:11.160 you could offer programs for women's sports, and there would 75 00:05:11.199 --> 00:05:20.439 be in excess of two hundred positions, right, volleyball, rowing, field, hockey, gymnastics, swimming, 76 00:05:21.160 --> 00:05:25.560 track and field, all these different sports, tennis, golf, all 77 00:05:25.560 --> 00:05:29.480 these different sports, volleyball, It goes on and on and on, 78 00:05:31.839 --> 00:05:34.240 and you could offer all these positions for women to 79 00:05:34.240 --> 00:05:38.639 play sports. But Title nine, the way it was constructed, 80 00:05:39.439 --> 00:05:43.000 was that even if you offered those positions and for 81 00:05:43.040 --> 00:05:48.360 whatever reason, you couldn't get enough women to fulfill those positions, well, 82 00:05:48.399 --> 00:05:52.279 then you had to reduce the number of men who 83 00:05:52.279 --> 00:05:56.680 were involved in sports. And over the years, how many 84 00:05:56.720 --> 00:06:02.000 men's programs suffered because of that and disappear. How many 85 00:06:02.000 --> 00:06:07.920 colleges over the years lost men's golf programs men's swimming programs, 86 00:06:07.959 --> 00:06:12.240 men's wrestling programs, and it goes on and on and on. 87 00:06:14.720 --> 00:06:19.000 So Title nine did some good things for women. I 88 00:06:19.040 --> 00:06:23.480 don't think there's any question about that. But you've got, 89 00:06:25.360 --> 00:06:28.319 you know, an entire society now, an entire class of 90 00:06:28.360 --> 00:06:31.480 people who looked at Title nine and are willing to 91 00:06:31.480 --> 00:06:36.639 throw all that away, everything good that Title nine did 92 00:06:37.560 --> 00:06:42.519 on you know, all on the alter of wokeness or 93 00:06:42.519 --> 00:06:49.399 political correctness or a dehi transgenderism, all that kind of stuff, 94 00:06:51.160 --> 00:06:52.600 just saying that I would throw it all the way. 95 00:06:53.600 --> 00:06:58.839 So now we have a course of the specter of men, 96 00:06:59.120 --> 00:07:01.360 grown men who want to pretend to be women and 97 00:07:01.439 --> 00:07:05.199 want to play in women's sports. The Trump administration has 98 00:07:05.199 --> 00:07:11.399 said no to that, and there are still a few 99 00:07:11.439 --> 00:07:15.199 places that want to openly defy Trump. And this is 100 00:07:15.319 --> 00:07:17.399 a subject that James Bogan and I have talked about 101 00:07:17.439 --> 00:07:20.399 many different times, and he'll be here to give us 102 00:07:20.399 --> 00:07:22.959 an update on all of that. Cheryl Tumley will be 103 00:07:23.000 --> 00:07:27.079 here from the Washington Times. She is the online opinion 104 00:07:27.160 --> 00:07:31.319 editor and just has great insight into all things that 105 00:07:31.360 --> 00:07:36.199 are happening political and otherwise. And then Steve Gorham is 106 00:07:36.240 --> 00:07:40.040 going to be here. He of the Climate Science Institute, 107 00:07:41.040 --> 00:07:48.680 and Steve Gorham is just fantastic on issues of environmentalism 108 00:07:49.600 --> 00:07:53.959 and all the rest of it. So totally entertaining. Always 109 00:07:53.959 --> 00:07:57.519 love having that guy on, and so that's going to 110 00:07:57.519 --> 00:07:59.439 be in the eight o'clock hours. So until then, it's 111 00:07:59.439 --> 00:08:04.439 just me and you and all kinds of different things. 112 00:08:05.079 --> 00:08:08.439 You know. Here we are now in the the wake, 113 00:08:08.519 --> 00:08:11.759 Sean McMahon, were you able to observe the historic space 114 00:08:11.800 --> 00:08:15.680 flight yesterday? I did not catch that six women in 115 00:08:15.720 --> 00:08:19.040 the Blue Origin. Come on, what's wrong with you? We 116 00:08:19.959 --> 00:08:26.319 we live in historic times. Six women were able to 117 00:08:28.120 --> 00:08:36.519 board a spaceship rocket to outer space and return to 118 00:08:36.600 --> 00:08:41.159 Earth in the span of eleven minutes. A historic, a 119 00:08:41.399 --> 00:08:46.759 historic all women mission, and somehow you and I are 120 00:08:46.799 --> 00:08:51.480 better off for it. This morning we have audio from 121 00:08:51.480 --> 00:09:01.279 inside the space capsule. The the the amount of that 122 00:09:01.720 --> 00:09:07.440 CBS was exhibiting yesterday was really off the charts, and 123 00:09:07.480 --> 00:09:11.840 I've got some some audio of that that we will 124 00:09:11.960 --> 00:09:17.000 roll a little bit later on. And look, I am 125 00:09:17.039 --> 00:09:23.480 not I am not looking askance at the danger that 126 00:09:23.639 --> 00:09:28.840 is associated with climbing on border rocket, rocketing up to 127 00:09:29.200 --> 00:09:32.279 the edge or the I guess actually into outer space. 128 00:09:32.320 --> 00:09:36.320 I don't know the technicality of it, but anytime you 129 00:09:36.440 --> 00:09:39.200 do that, there is an inherent danger that goes along 130 00:09:39.240 --> 00:09:42.279 with it. I am not belittling that or looking askance 131 00:09:42.320 --> 00:09:47.559 at that in any way, shape or form. What I 132 00:09:47.600 --> 00:09:52.320 am questioning, though, is this notion that somehow this was 133 00:09:53.799 --> 00:10:01.879 a historically significant moment of six women Katy Perry, Gail King. 134 00:10:03.080 --> 00:10:05.519 I guess one of these women is the fiance of 135 00:10:05.600 --> 00:10:08.919 Jeff Bezos. I don't know who the other ones are, 136 00:10:11.080 --> 00:10:16.799 that somehow there's something significant and historic and memorable that 137 00:10:16.840 --> 00:10:19.399 these six women were on board that spacecraft for a 138 00:10:19.440 --> 00:10:23.360 total of eleven minutes. It takes most of us longer 139 00:10:23.399 --> 00:10:27.600 to drive to work than it did for this space 140 00:10:27.639 --> 00:10:31.080 flight to go up and come back down. I've sat 141 00:10:31.159 --> 00:10:34.399 in fast food drive through lines that take longer than 142 00:10:34.440 --> 00:10:40.080 eleven minutes. I'm sure most of you can relate something 143 00:10:40.120 --> 00:10:42.600 that takes longer than eleven minutes to do in your 144 00:10:42.639 --> 00:10:48.519 life almost every single day. But somehow there are those 145 00:10:48.600 --> 00:10:52.240 who are going to be telling us that this space 146 00:10:52.279 --> 00:10:54.879 flight yesterday with these women who went up in the 147 00:10:55.679 --> 00:11:03.879 Jeff Bezos rocket was a significant and important event. I 148 00:11:03.919 --> 00:11:07.120 will wait to see how that manifests itself, and we'll 149 00:11:07.159 --> 00:11:11.440 have some more thoughts on that as the show goes along. 150 00:11:11.480 --> 00:11:13.919 Today it is five sixteen. We've got to get to 151 00:11:13.919 --> 00:11:16.840 a little break here, and I want to thank you 152 00:11:16.879 --> 00:11:20.279 for tuning in and listening the great Brian Thomas audience 153 00:11:21.039 --> 00:11:23.039 as we roll on till nine o'clock this morning on 154 00:11:23.159 --> 00:11:25.879 fifty five krc the talk station. 155 00:11:26.240 --> 00:11:29.559 This is fifty five krc an iHeartRadio station. 156 00:11:30.039 --> 00:11:45.480 Do you have a master fifty five KRCD talk station. 157 00:11:45.639 --> 00:11:49.159 Dan Carroll hanging out for Brian Thomas. Tax Day today 158 00:11:49.799 --> 00:11:53.399 and the Internal Revenue Service started accepting tax returns on 159 00:11:53.519 --> 00:12:00.679 January twenty seventh. According to NBC NBC News, there are 160 00:12:00.720 --> 00:12:04.679 some states that you don't have to turn your taxes 161 00:12:04.679 --> 00:12:08.840 in today because of natural disasters and other things like that. 162 00:12:09.039 --> 00:12:13.399 According to the IRS, the automatic May first, twenty twenty 163 00:12:13.399 --> 00:12:16.679 five deadline for twenty twenty four tax returns. This says 164 00:12:16.759 --> 00:12:21.039 May first, Okay, yeah, it's automatic, So it goes to 165 00:12:21.639 --> 00:12:24.840 this is April fifteenth, then if you have until May 166 00:12:24.879 --> 00:12:30.200 first in nine states that were affected by FEMA disaster 167 00:12:30.320 --> 00:12:35.080 declarations from twenty twenty four, so this includes taxpayers from 168 00:12:35.120 --> 00:12:41.840 the entire state of Alabama, all of Florida, Georgia, North Carolina, 169 00:12:41.879 --> 00:12:48.879 and South Carolina. The extended deadline remains. The extended deadline 170 00:12:48.879 --> 00:12:51.919 for the remaining four states applied only two specific areas, 171 00:12:53.759 --> 00:12:56.919 including the city and borough of Juneo in Alaska. The 172 00:12:56.960 --> 00:13:01.720 other affected areas are Chavez County, New Mexico, several counties 173 00:13:01.720 --> 00:13:11.480 in Tennessee and Virginia. The states of Alabama, Florida, Georgia, 174 00:13:11.519 --> 00:13:14.720 North Carolina, South Carolina. Several counties in Tennessee and Virginia 175 00:13:15.440 --> 00:13:19.360 had their tax deadlines extended to May first due to 176 00:13:19.480 --> 00:13:27.039 devastation calls by Hurricane Helene. According to the IRS. In 177 00:13:27.120 --> 00:13:30.320 October of twenty four, it was announced that individuals and 178 00:13:30.360 --> 00:13:33.480 businesses in the Juno area of Alaska would have until 179 00:13:33.519 --> 00:13:37.639 May first to file their taxes because of flooding that 180 00:13:37.759 --> 00:13:41.679 began in August of twenty four. In addition to the 181 00:13:41.759 --> 00:13:44.879 nited states who had automatic deadline extensions, other states have 182 00:13:45.039 --> 00:13:49.799 later deadlines for individuals and businesses their taxpayers.

The fires were contained after more 185 00:14:01.519 --> 00:14:04.600 than three weeks, causing twenty nine deaths and destroying tens 186 00:14:04.639 --> 00:14:08.559 of thousands of acres.

The video, two mass people 239 00:18:07.839 --> 00:18:10.240 are seen near Merrick. One of the mass people walks 240 00:18:10.319 --> 00:18:13.359 up to him, pulls a gun, pulls out a gun 241 00:18:13.480 --> 00:18:20.480 and sticks it right in his midsection. That gunman is 242 00:18:20.519 --> 00:18:25.599 fifteen years old, and information started coming out yesterday that 243 00:18:25.640 --> 00:18:30.359 this fifteen year old has been in the Hamilton County 244 00:18:30.480 --> 00:18:35.720 Juvenile court system on what could be as many as 245 00:18:35.799 --> 00:18:44.160 twenty one felonies. Twenty one felonies, and yet this kid 246 00:18:44.200 --> 00:18:47.920 was out on the street and able to get his 247 00:18:48.000 --> 00:18:53.200 hands on a gun. The video I've seen it a 248 00:18:53.200 --> 00:18:58.480 few times and you've probably seen it as well. Walks 249 00:18:58.559 --> 00:19:04.359 up to the victim, sticks a gun in his midsection. 250 00:19:07.160 --> 00:19:11.759 Merrick starts running away down the street. It turned out 251 00:19:11.799 --> 00:19:16.519 he also was armed. The fifteen year old runs after him, 252 00:19:18.759 --> 00:19:24.559 gun in hand. Mirrick pulls his own weapon, turns and shoots. 253 00:19:24.599 --> 00:19:27.319 Apparently misses or I don't know if he missed or not. 254 00:19:29.119 --> 00:19:32.880 I think he may have hit the kid, but the 255 00:19:32.920 --> 00:19:36.839 fifteen year old shot back and Mirrick was fatally wounded. 256 00:19:39.720 --> 00:19:41.880 His family wants the fifteen year old to be charged 257 00:19:41.920 --> 00:19:47.079 as an adult, but we may be looking at and 258 00:19:47.119 --> 00:19:53.759 I was texting with Ken Kober yesterday afternoon about this 259 00:19:53.839 --> 00:19:57.079 information that was coming out and trying to check on 260 00:19:57.160 --> 00:20:01.079 the on how valid this information is. Peers that it 261 00:20:01.160 --> 00:20:06.720 may very well be valid that this kid, fifteen years old, 262 00:20:07.799 --> 00:20:12.000 has had all these contacts with the juvenile system here 263 00:20:12.039 --> 00:20:14.519 in Hamilton County, but yet is able to be out 264 00:20:14.559 --> 00:20:19.640 on the streets. And so we'll see what develops on 265 00:20:19.680 --> 00:20:22.759 this today and Ken Kober is going to be here 266 00:20:22.799 --> 00:20:26.599 either Thursday or Friday, and we'll get the very latest 267 00:20:27.839 --> 00:20:30.799 on that. The family of Merrick is hoping the fifteen 268 00:20:30.880 --> 00:20:35.319 year old will be tried as an adult. This kid 269 00:20:35.359 --> 00:20:39.960 is fifteen years old, said Kyle Merrick's dad. Bryant needs 270 00:20:39.960 --> 00:20:42.079 to be charged as an adult. He was sitting outside 271 00:20:42.119 --> 00:20:45.039 the liquor store as an adult. He had a gun 272 00:20:45.160 --> 00:20:50.160 as an adult. He should be charged as an adult 273 00:20:53.359 --> 00:20:59.240 and we will see what happens. As you know, there's 274 00:21:00.240 --> 00:21:03.640 here in Hamilton County, there's not not a lot of 275 00:21:03.640 --> 00:21:08.880 reasons to have faith in our juvenile court judges that 276 00:21:08.920 --> 00:21:13.000 they will take this seriously or they will do anything 277 00:21:13.039 --> 00:21:17.079 to step up and do what needs to be done 278 00:21:17.359 --> 00:21:23.799 to protect the community. In any way, here's another teenager 279 00:21:25.559 --> 00:21:32.640 who yesterday admitted to the shooting that took place. This 280 00:21:32.799 --> 00:21:35.319 was near again, another one near the campus of the 281 00:21:35.400 --> 00:21:39.920 University of Cincinnati last March. Justin Dugan seventeen years old 282 00:21:40.759 --> 00:21:43.240 when he shot and killed twenty one year old Benjamin Addison. 283 00:21:44.240 --> 00:21:46.640 Dugan took a plea deal would that would send him 284 00:21:46.640 --> 00:21:50.079 the prison for twenty one years, and we miss him 285 00:21:50.079 --> 00:21:53.880 every second of every day, said Benjamin Addison's father. Benjamin 286 00:21:54.000 --> 00:21:57.240 was our world. Our son will never come back, said 287 00:21:57.279 --> 00:22:02.440 his mother. After our of deliberation, prosecutors and defense reaching 288 00:22:02.440 --> 00:22:05.960 in a plea agreement twenty one years in prison. Before 289 00:22:06.039 --> 00:22:09.440 Dugan was escorted out of the courtroom, he addressed the 290 00:22:09.480 --> 00:22:12.240 UC students' parents for the first time. I'll never be 291 00:22:12.279 --> 00:22:16.279 able to take back what I did, Dugan said, truly, 292 00:22:16.319 --> 00:22:22.640 I'm sorry, especially to the good people over there. Even 293 00:22:22.680 --> 00:22:24.519 if he had gotten what he wanted, as far as 294 00:22:24.640 --> 00:22:27.440 judgment goes in the courts, it won't stop the nightmare 295 00:22:27.480 --> 00:22:36.319 because he's not here, said said the family of the victim. 296 00:22:36.680 --> 00:22:39.279 Benjamin Addison would have been in his final weeks of 297 00:22:39.279 --> 00:22:43.279 classes at U see. Instead his parents are Morning and 298 00:22:43.319 --> 00:22:47.200 Future where that will not happen. He'd be graduating from UC, 299 00:22:47.440 --> 00:22:50.440 maybe a couple of years, getting married, Joseph Addison said, 300 00:22:51.119 --> 00:22:53.519 then maybe three or four years from now, having some babies, 301 00:22:53.720 --> 00:22:59.440 and just hor horrible for that family. So this seventeen 302 00:22:59.480 --> 00:23:04.359 year old goes away for twenty one years.

We are deeply grateful 369 00:27:46.559 --> 00:27:48.359 for the two and twenty two years of ministry and 370 00:27:48.359 --> 00:27:51.799 the service to church has provided, said Pastor Glenn Lash 371 00:27:52.119 --> 00:27:56.599 of the Elizabethtown United Methodist Church. It's with heavy hearts 372 00:27:56.599 --> 00:27:58.400 that we make this decision. We know the spirit of 373 00:27:58.440 --> 00:27:59.960 the church will live on in the lives of the 374 00:28:00.000 --> 00:28:07.000 thoseho been part of it. Final services everyone's invited well Sunday, 375 00:28:07.039 --> 00:28:10.440 May eighteenth, and that's the end of that church. So 376 00:28:10.559 --> 00:28:13.160 God blessed them, and good luck to them, and good 377 00:28:13.240 --> 00:28:18.400 luck to that community. The Elizabethtown the United Methodist Church. 378 00:28:18.720 --> 00:28:22.839 Two and twenty two years, that's a pretty good run. 379 00:28:23.279 --> 00:28:26.400 Dan Carroll for Brian Thomas on fifty five KRS DE Talk. 380 00:28:26.319 --> 00:28:28.079 Station fifty five KRC. 381 00:28:28.720 --> 00:28:31.160 You look back at our family history and see how 382 00:28:38.720 --> 00:28:43.160 five point fifty on this Monday morning, Good morning, you're 383 00:28:43.200 --> 00:28:46.119 listening to the fifty five KRC Morning Show. I'm Dan Carroll, 384 00:28:46.160 --> 00:28:50.240 Brian Thomas taking the week off, Joe Strucker taking the 385 00:28:50.240 --> 00:28:55.279 week off as well. Great piece. Andrea Whidberg is just 386 00:28:55.359 --> 00:28:58.759 a terrific writer over an American thinker, and she's been 387 00:28:58.759 --> 00:29:01.119 taking a look at what's happening with Harvard and the 388 00:29:01.160 --> 00:29:08.680 taxpayer money that is being withheld from Harvard, and Andrea writes, 389 00:29:08.720 --> 00:29:11.400 at last count Harvard's endowment was a little above fifty 390 00:29:11.480 --> 00:29:19.000 three billion dollars. The Harvard endowment fifty three billion dollars. 391 00:29:19.759 --> 00:29:22.759 Looking at the GDP of the world's countries, that means 392 00:29:22.799 --> 00:29:30.759 Harvard is richer than almost one hundred nations around the world. Nevertheless, 393 00:29:31.119 --> 00:29:37.839 last year, Harvard received six hundred eighty six million dollars 394 00:29:38.640 --> 00:29:43.880 from American taxpayers. Six hundred eighty six million dollars to 395 00:29:44.119 --> 00:29:49.119 Harvard from you and me and Sean McMahon, Shawn McMann. 396 00:29:49.160 --> 00:29:52.720 You pay taxes, don't you? I do. He've been so 397 00:29:53.039 --> 00:29:56.279 Sean McMahon got his share of taxes in there went 398 00:29:56.319 --> 00:29:59.680 to Harvard. That's not even counting the benefits flowing in 399 00:29:59.720 --> 00:30:04.559 the heart from federally guaranteed student loans. In return for 400 00:30:04.599 --> 00:30:08.519 that money, all Donald Trump is asking from Harvard is 401 00:30:08.559 --> 00:30:11.319 that Harvard abide by the Civil Rights Act in terms 402 00:30:11.400 --> 00:30:16.160 of its Jewish students who have been on the receiving 403 00:30:16.279 --> 00:30:21.920 end of vile and violent campus wide discrimination, and allow 404 00:30:22.000 --> 00:30:24.559 the federal government to make sure that Harvard is properly 405 00:30:24.599 --> 00:30:29.680 accounting for that over half billion dollars in taxpayer money 406 00:30:30.519 --> 00:30:36.759 that it receives every year. So the Trump you know, 407 00:30:36.799 --> 00:30:40.640 the Donald Trumpster, is saying, look, Harvard, do you want 408 00:30:40.640 --> 00:30:43.160 to keep getting this six hundred and eighty six million, 409 00:30:44.599 --> 00:30:48.000 watch out for the Jewish students and give us a 410 00:30:48.000 --> 00:30:51.480 little accounting. Tell us what you're doing with all that money. 411 00:30:52.599 --> 00:30:57.440 To that, Harvard is saying, kna babina, insisting that it 412 00:30:57.480 --> 00:31:03.599 has the right to unfettered use of tax payer money. 413 00:31:04.400 --> 00:31:09.880 Harvard's response to the Trump administration and the administration's demands 414 00:31:09.920 --> 00:31:15.680 is that it stop violating the law, and that came 415 00:31:15.880 --> 00:31:20.519 via a letter from its lawyers. The letter doesn't explicitly 416 00:31:20.559 --> 00:31:25.400 address the audit. Instead, it focuses entirely on the contention 417 00:31:25.559 --> 00:31:30.200 that Harvard is violating Jewish students civil rights, and the 418 00:31:30.240 --> 00:31:32.519 first part of the letter, Harvard insists that it has 419 00:31:32.559 --> 00:31:36.279 done everything possible and necessary to protect Jewish students and 420 00:31:36.319 --> 00:31:40.119 claims that the campus is way better for Jews than 421 00:31:40.160 --> 00:31:46.440 it was a year ago. Widburg says she cannot address 422 00:31:46.480 --> 00:31:49.480 that claim because she hasn't followed closely what's been going 423 00:31:49.519 --> 00:31:52.039 on at Harvard for the past year. But what she 424 00:31:52.119 --> 00:31:55.440 can address is the really stunning argument that Harvard makes 425 00:31:55.440 --> 00:32:00.400 about federal moneys. It receives that those of us lowly 426 00:32:00.480 --> 00:32:03.319 taxpayers tend to believe that free speech is an inherent 427 00:32:03.440 --> 00:32:07.480 right and that the government cannot take it from us. However, 428 00:32:08.119 --> 00:32:11.000 we also believe that the government doesn't have to fund 429 00:32:11.039 --> 00:32:15.400 our speech instead, or indeed, that we believe that once 430 00:32:15.440 --> 00:32:20.559 we start taking money from someone, an employer, a government relative, 431 00:32:21.960 --> 00:32:24.559 then that person or entity begins to have us say 432 00:32:24.680 --> 00:32:27.839 in how we use the money, including what we say 433 00:32:28.880 --> 00:32:32.200 while we are on that person's dime. If we want 434 00:32:32.279 --> 00:32:38.519 unfettered speech, then we need to say no to the money. 435 00:32:39.359 --> 00:32:43.400 But again that's not Harvard's view. Instead, the Harvard view 436 00:32:43.480 --> 00:32:48.319 is that the American taxpayer must fund Harvard's First Amendment rights, 437 00:32:49.680 --> 00:32:55.400 and that withdrawing the funding is tantamount to censorship. It 438 00:32:55.480 --> 00:32:59.240 is unfortunate, then, that your letter disregards Harvard's efforts and 439 00:32:59.319 --> 00:33:05.279 instead presents demands that, in contravention of the First Amendment, 440 00:33:05.480 --> 00:33:13.279 invade university freedom long recognized by the Supreme Court. So, Harvard, 441 00:33:13.839 --> 00:33:15.759 if you look at this, they want to have their 442 00:33:15.799 --> 00:33:20.319 cake and eat it too. They want to take they 443 00:33:20.319 --> 00:33:22.920 want to take all this government money and not have 444 00:33:22.960 --> 00:33:27.599 to account for any of it. And now they're hiding 445 00:33:27.640 --> 00:33:34.359 behind the First Amendment. And we've seen story after story 446 00:33:34.359 --> 00:33:39.480 about how Jewish students on these campuses feel threatened, can't 447 00:33:39.519 --> 00:33:45.519 go to class, are blocked at every turn. And Harvard 448 00:33:45.559 --> 00:33:47.839 is putting all this under the First Amendment, saying you 449 00:33:47.839 --> 00:33:51.559 don't have any right to stop sending us taxpayer dollars, 450 00:33:53.519 --> 00:33:57.960 and all the while they've got fifty three billion in 451 00:33:58.079 --> 00:34:02.119 the tank or in the bank. I should say, I 452 00:34:02.160 --> 00:34:05.279 don't think so, and I don't think Harvard's going to 453 00:34:05.319 --> 00:34:10.519 win this one. So we'll see what happens. Think about that, 454 00:34:10.559 --> 00:34:14.960 they've got fifty three billion, and they want even more 455 00:34:15.480 --> 00:34:18.760 from all of us, to taxpayers, as if they're entitled 456 00:34:18.760 --> 00:34:21.639 to it. Five point fifty five Dan Carroll for Brian Thomas, 457 00:34:21.719 --> 00:34:42.280 fifty five kr S he talks station fifty five KRC, 458 00:34:42.519 --> 00:34:45.480 the talk station six h five on this Tuesday morning. 459 00:34:45.519 --> 00:34:47.760 I'm Dan Carroll and for Brian Thomas, got to get 460 00:34:47.760 --> 00:34:50.239 those taxes in Today. Today is it. Today is the 461 00:34:50.239 --> 00:34:53.599 deadline unless you've lived in one of the places where 462 00:34:53.599 --> 00:34:55.760 the IRS has extended the deadlines, if you've been hit 463 00:34:55.800 --> 00:34:59.440 by a natural disaster or something like that. But for 464 00:34:59.519 --> 00:35:02.559 most of us, today is the day. Well, it's a 465 00:35:02.639 --> 00:35:05.639 very historic. Guess, yesterday was a very historic day. I 466 00:35:05.679 --> 00:35:08.840 missed it. I didn't Sean McMahon, did you get to 467 00:35:08.880 --> 00:35:11.800 see any of this this Blue Origin rocket? Didn't watch 468 00:35:11.840 --> 00:35:13.960 a second? Think you didn't see one second of it? 469 00:35:14.280 --> 00:35:19.000 I mean it only lasted eleven eleven mites. And again, 470 00:35:19.199 --> 00:35:22.239 I am not belittling the dangerous of spaceflight in any way, 471 00:35:22.320 --> 00:35:26.760 shape or form. Is it is a very dangerous undertaking. 472 00:35:28.119 --> 00:35:31.159 But we had the six women on the Blue Origin. 473 00:35:32.239 --> 00:35:37.000 You got Lauren Sanchez. Let's see who are let me 474 00:35:37.079 --> 00:35:41.239 see if I can Okay, we got okay, Katy Perry, 475 00:35:41.280 --> 00:35:44.440 she's a pop star, she's a singer. Then got Gail King, 476 00:35:44.519 --> 00:35:49.079 who is Oprah's buddy, who's a morning show host on CBS. 477 00:35:50.199 --> 00:35:53.440 Then you got Aisha bo who was apparently a NASA 478 00:35:53.519 --> 00:35:59.920 rocket scientist, Amanda Wynn who was a civil rights active, 479 00:36:01.719 --> 00:36:05.920 Carrie Anne Flynn who is a film producer, and then 480 00:36:06.000 --> 00:36:13.880 Lauren Sanchez, who is apparently a journalist. I guess Sanchez 481 00:36:14.000 --> 00:36:19.440 is the fiance of Jeff Bezos. And so she got 482 00:36:19.440 --> 00:36:21.719 the six women together and up into space they went, 483 00:36:22.800 --> 00:36:25.159 and CBS News was making a big you know, with 484 00:36:25.199 --> 00:36:28.880 Gail King going along for the ride. CBS News was 485 00:36:28.920 --> 00:36:31.159 making a big deal about this. Oprah was out there. 486 00:36:31.199 --> 00:36:34.239 You know, she's best buddy for the Oprah and the 487 00:36:34.760 --> 00:36:41.480 virtue signaling and the wokeness and the political correctness was 488 00:36:41.599 --> 00:36:46.400 just off the charts. They were doing an interview with 489 00:36:48.880 --> 00:36:51.760 the doctor ma je Emison, who was the first black 490 00:36:51.760 --> 00:36:55.840 woman in space. And I've got a little cut of this, 491 00:36:57.039 --> 00:37:00.320 this interview they were doing, and the one of the 492 00:37:00.360 --> 00:37:02.840 co hosts of the CBS Morning News is of lad 493 00:37:02.920 --> 00:37:07.840 do others and even he wants, you know, trying to 494 00:37:07.880 --> 00:37:15.400 be as woke as possible, but you know, in close 495 00:37:15.440 --> 00:37:19.639 proximity to doctor Maye Jamison wound up stepping in it. 496 00:37:20.119 --> 00:37:23.400 And here's what that sounded like. And Sean McMahon, if 497 00:37:23.440 --> 00:37:25.079 we could please let's hear cut number four. 498 00:37:25.920 --> 00:37:32.039 Dareth will be here, but we might not see there's yep, 499 00:37:32.519 --> 00:37:38.000 Well he doesn't no longer has an atmosphere that supports 500 00:37:38.000 --> 00:37:38.719 our life form. 501 00:37:38.960 --> 00:37:42.239 So' stop right there for a second. So there's doctor 502 00:37:42.320 --> 00:37:46.800 Mae Jemison saying that the Earth no longer has an 503 00:37:46.840 --> 00:37:51.480 atmosphere that supports our life form? Is that right? I 504 00:37:51.800 --> 00:37:54.239 may ask our buddy Steve gorm about that a little 505 00:37:54.239 --> 00:37:59.400 bit later, on this morning. Very strange that the Earth 506 00:37:59.400 --> 00:38:01.960 no longer has an atmosphere that supports our life form. 507 00:38:02.280 --> 00:38:05.400 I think we're all still here today, and I think 508 00:38:05.440 --> 00:38:09.039 we're all going to be here long after you and 509 00:38:09.159 --> 00:38:12.360 I and everyone listening to me right now are long gone. 510 00:38:13.400 --> 00:38:16.880 And that includes Mae Jemison and all the women who 511 00:38:16.920 --> 00:38:20.280 wrote up on the Blue Origin or Blood the Yeah, 512 00:38:20.280 --> 00:38:25.960 the Blue Origin rocket no longer supports our life form. 513 00:38:26.760 --> 00:38:29.480 I'm not sure she's right about that, all right, keep. 514 00:38:29.280 --> 00:38:31.440 Going, it supports our life form. 515 00:38:31.719 --> 00:38:35.880 So I think that perspective was really important, really, because 516 00:38:35.880 --> 00:38:38.920 we get so human centric that we forget that we're 517 00:38:38.920 --> 00:38:40.280 part of this greater universe. 518 00:38:40.440 --> 00:38:42.199 So one of the things we talked about yesterday when 519 00:38:42.199 --> 00:38:44.239 we were preparing to speak with you live on the air 520 00:38:44.519 --> 00:38:48.840 is the importance of space travel and the importance of 521 00:38:49.000 --> 00:38:51.400 the work that astronauts do when they are in space. 522 00:38:51.400 --> 00:38:53.920 You heard Amanda Wynn tell me in the interview that 523 00:38:53.920 --> 00:38:56.840 she's conducting science experiments on this voyage, which I don't 524 00:38:56.840 --> 00:38:57.920 think a lot of people knew. 525 00:38:57.960 --> 00:38:59.719 They thought it was just six women going up into 526 00:38:59.760 --> 00:39:03.480 space science. Hold on, hold on, right there, So a 527 00:39:03.639 --> 00:39:09.760 Vlad is talking about they're conducting science experiments on this voyage. 528 00:39:10.599 --> 00:39:16.159 This eleven minute long voyage, I think about maybe just 529 00:39:16.239 --> 00:39:20.440 a little over a minute of it is actually in waitlessness. 530 00:39:21.800 --> 00:39:24.719 How many science experiments can you conduct? And look, I'm 531 00:39:24.719 --> 00:39:29.519 not a scientist. Maybe someone listening can tell me how 532 00:39:29.519 --> 00:39:33.679 many science experiments can you conduct in the span of 533 00:39:33.719 --> 00:39:41.199 eleven minutes. I don't know, but apparently there were some 534 00:39:41.320 --> 00:39:44.880 science experiment and we've got some some audio from inside 535 00:39:44.880 --> 00:39:47.599 the capsule, and you can judge for yourself. But let's 536 00:39:47.599 --> 00:39:50.960 finish this interview. Go ahead. Shohn's six women. Well, that's 537 00:39:50.960 --> 00:39:54.679 what I mean. That women's right, right, right, right. 538 00:39:54.840 --> 00:39:59.119 But he's speaking to some of the ras that are 539 00:39:59.119 --> 00:40:01.360 out there that I to correct with this interview, and 540 00:40:01.400 --> 00:40:04.000 I'm glad that you're here to help me correct that narrative. 541 00:40:04.599 --> 00:40:08.639 So explain to our audience why even a trip like 542 00:40:08.679 --> 00:40:10.000 this one, all the trips that. 543 00:40:09.960 --> 00:40:14.960 We take into space benefit mankind, So it benefits humankind. 544 00:40:15.320 --> 00:40:19.119 And I'm going to keep correcting the man made and 545 00:40:19.159 --> 00:40:22.719 the man missions, because this is exactly what this mission 546 00:40:22.760 --> 00:40:26.960 is about, is expanding the perspective of who does space? 547 00:40:27.599 --> 00:40:28.880 Why is space important? 548 00:40:29.639 --> 00:40:33.039 When you just look at it, when you go up, 549 00:40:33.119 --> 00:40:36.000 you get a perspective on this world that you can't 550 00:40:36.039 --> 00:40:39.440 get from looking down on the ground, and you can 551 00:40:39.440 --> 00:40:40.280 get it much faster. 552 00:40:41.559 --> 00:40:47.280 This mission is important for expanding the understanding of who 553 00:40:47.360 --> 00:40:53.639 does space? Really, that's what this mission was about, expanding 554 00:40:53.679 --> 00:40:59.079 the perspective of who does space. We've sent dogs in 555 00:40:59.119 --> 00:41:03.800 the space, we sent monkeys into space. The first woman 556 00:41:04.800 --> 00:41:07.039 who went into space, sean, do you know who that was? 557 00:41:08.239 --> 00:41:11.519 When the first woman went into space? Couldn't tell you. 558 00:41:11.840 --> 00:41:20.039 June sixth, nineteen sixty three, cosmonaut Valentina Tereshkova went up 559 00:41:20.039 --> 00:41:25.800 on the Vostok six, a Soviet cosmonaut forty eight orbits 560 00:41:26.000 --> 00:41:33.119 and seventy one hours. That was the first woman into space. Look, 561 00:41:33.159 --> 00:41:36.079 these women went up, and God bless them, it was 562 00:41:36.079 --> 00:41:40.039 a dangerous thing. There's all kinds of things that can 563 00:41:40.360 --> 00:41:42.599 whenever you do anything like this, there's all kinds of 564 00:41:42.599 --> 00:41:47.559 things that can go wrong. But spare me this notion 565 00:41:48.519 --> 00:41:54.199 that this was historic and somehow these six women floating 566 00:41:54.239 --> 00:41:58.159 around the capsule for about a minute or so is 567 00:41:58.239 --> 00:42:02.840 going to span my horizons or expand my perspective or 568 00:42:02.840 --> 00:42:08.480 my understanding of space or space travel. And somehow this 569 00:42:08.639 --> 00:42:12.360 is going to accrue to the larger benefit of us 570 00:42:12.480 --> 00:42:16.599 as and for God's sake, we can no longer say mankind, 571 00:42:17.840 --> 00:42:24.719 but humankind isn't mankind and all encompassing term that refers 572 00:42:24.800 --> 00:42:31.559 to everyone on this planet. Not good enough, Not good 573 00:42:31.719 --> 00:42:37.400 enough for the ultra woke astronaut, Doctor maeje Emison going 574 00:42:37.480 --> 00:42:40.719 to continue to correct a little slight correction there for 575 00:42:40.840 --> 00:42:47.159 the host of MSNBC. So here's the little audio of 576 00:42:47.480 --> 00:42:51.239 the women. And this is this audio. This video actually 577 00:42:51.239 --> 00:42:55.320 starts from the moment that they get into witlessness. They 578 00:42:55.440 --> 00:42:59.119 unstrap from their seats and they're starting to float around 579 00:42:59.159 --> 00:43:03.519 the capsule, and you'll hear the conversation. I really wasn't 580 00:43:03.519 --> 00:43:05.400 able to pick up on the part where the science 581 00:43:05.440 --> 00:43:10.000 experiments were being carried out, But you listen for yourself, 582 00:43:10.039 --> 00:43:13.400 and you tell me and Sean, let's hear cut number five. 583 00:43:13.440 --> 00:43:18.440 Please got it? 584 00:43:18.599 --> 00:43:25.679 One, two, three. 585 00:43:25.400 --> 00:43:27.199 TMR Tamir's in space. 586 00:43:29.719 --> 00:43:31.480 It's okay, Leslan up there. 587 00:43:35.480 --> 00:43:40.400 Flynn, I got you, I got youa Flynn gotcha. Oh 588 00:43:40.719 --> 00:43:43.519 proud of you. 589 00:43:45.960 --> 00:43:49.000 Oh the moon, you guys, I will have to tell you. 590 00:43:49.000 --> 00:43:49.719 Look at the moon. 591 00:43:51.320 --> 00:43:52.079 That's amazing. 592 00:43:53.280 --> 00:43:55.079 Wow, look at the blue line. 593 00:43:55.239 --> 00:44:03.920 My god, oh my god. Okay, how it's time to. 594 00:44:03.920 --> 00:44:04.840 Pick out. 595 00:44:13.679 --> 00:44:14.559 Whoa, whoa, whoa. 596 00:44:15.639 --> 00:44:16.400 That's amazing. 597 00:44:18.480 --> 00:44:22.840 So there you go that, uh, that right there, that 598 00:44:23.079 --> 00:44:27.559 is a moment for all of history, for all of 599 00:44:27.719 --> 00:44:32.159 humankind to be proud of me. That the advancement that 600 00:44:32.280 --> 00:44:36.400 I feel in in in humankind today is very profound 601 00:44:37.320 --> 00:44:40.199 based on that. I'm not sure where the where the 602 00:44:40.239 --> 00:44:43.239 experiments were taking place. There At one point they were 603 00:44:43.280 --> 00:44:47.719 passing around the little a little miniature stuffed animal and 604 00:44:48.079 --> 00:44:51.320 holding that up for the camera to see. Katy Perry 605 00:44:51.400 --> 00:44:55.199 had a little flower in her hand and then uh, 606 00:44:55.280 --> 00:44:59.639 like a little cardboard butterfly that she was able to, 607 00:45:00.119 --> 00:45:03.039 you know, make weightless for a few moments. So there 608 00:45:03.079 --> 00:45:06.760 you go. Today we are all better off because of 609 00:45:06.800 --> 00:45:10.400 what those women did in space. And if you weren't 610 00:45:10.400 --> 00:45:12.199 able to see it yesterday, well I'm glad I was 611 00:45:12.239 --> 00:45:15.960 able to provide that coverage for you here on fifty 612 00:45:15.960 --> 00:45:18.519 five krc DE Talk Station fifty. 613 00:45:18.239 --> 00:45:21.159 Five KRC trustin will knows that we'll all. 614 00:45:21.199 --> 00:45:34.000 Vastation fifty five krc DE talk Station. I was reading 615 00:45:34.000 --> 00:45:39.679 a little bit more about Valentina Terraskova, the first woman 616 00:45:39.760 --> 00:45:43.920 to travel into space on June sixteenth, nineteen sixty three. 617 00:45:45.480 --> 00:45:48.800 Terra Skova was born to a peasant family in nineteen 618 00:45:48.880 --> 00:45:52.719 thirty seven. Began work at a textile factory when she 619 00:45:52.800 --> 00:45:55.840 was eighteen. When she was twenty two, she made her 620 00:45:55.880 --> 00:46:01.480 first parachute jump with a local aba club. Her enthusiasm 621 00:46:01.519 --> 00:46:04.159 for skydiving brought her to the attention of the Soviet 622 00:46:04.199 --> 00:46:07.880 space program, which sought to put a woman in space 623 00:46:08.199 --> 00:46:13.599 in the early nineteen sixties. So, you know, there's so 624 00:46:13.679 --> 00:46:15.679 many people here in the United States who want to 625 00:46:15.679 --> 00:46:19.639 pat themselves on the back for being forward thinking and 626 00:46:19.719 --> 00:46:23.079 inclusive and all that. But here's the Soviets in the 627 00:46:23.159 --> 00:46:28.039 nineteen sixties had the idea to put women in space. 628 00:46:30.400 --> 00:46:32.400 They wanted to do this mainly because you know, the 629 00:46:32.440 --> 00:46:34.960 early nineteen sixties, that's when the space race was on 630 00:46:35.280 --> 00:46:38.679 and the Soviets were kicking our butts and they wanted 631 00:46:38.679 --> 00:46:43.000 to achieve another first before the United States, and so 632 00:46:43.039 --> 00:46:47.239 they wanted to put a woman up there. Tereshkova, who 633 00:46:47.320 --> 00:46:50.519 was an accomplished parachutist, was well equipped to handle one 634 00:46:50.559 --> 00:46:55.920 of the most challenging procedures of a Vostok spaceflight. I 635 00:46:55.960 --> 00:46:58.639 guess they really hadn't figured out how to return their 636 00:46:58.679 --> 00:47:03.320 space capsules to Earth, and I guess with Russia having 637 00:47:04.440 --> 00:47:09.119 so little access to the open oceans, they have and 638 00:47:09.159 --> 00:47:13.599 I think they still do today. They land their spaceships 639 00:47:13.639 --> 00:47:18.239 on the ground, just like this one did yesterday. But 640 00:47:18.320 --> 00:47:21.679 one of the most challenging procedures of the Vostok spaceflight 641 00:47:22.440 --> 00:47:25.920 is a mandatory ejection from the capsule at about twenty 642 00:47:26.039 --> 00:47:31.480 thousand feet. So you come in for re entry, you're 643 00:47:31.480 --> 00:47:35.880 plummeting into the atmosphere. You get to about twenty thousand 644 00:47:35.960 --> 00:47:43.719 feet and you have to jump out. That's how you 645 00:47:43.760 --> 00:47:46.000 do it. That's how you do it in the Russia. 646 00:47:46.920 --> 00:47:50.480 That's a Svitia union twenty thousand feet. You open the 647 00:47:50.480 --> 00:47:53.280 capsule and you jump out, pulled the pool the court 648 00:47:53.320 --> 00:47:58.039 of the pedisutes. So that's what this gal had to do. 649 00:48:00.079 --> 00:48:03.000 So in nineteen sixty three, Terraskova was chosen to take 650 00:48:03.000 --> 00:48:05.599 part in the second dual flight in the Vostok program, 651 00:48:06.280 --> 00:48:10.400 so it involved two spacecraft. The Vostok five launched on 652 00:48:10.519 --> 00:48:17.119 June fourteenth, nineteen sixty three, and Valerie Baikovski was the 653 00:48:17.159 --> 00:48:19.679 astronaut on board that one. So he went up, he's 654 00:48:19.760 --> 00:48:24.480 orbiting the Earth and Terraskova launches two days later. The 655 00:48:24.480 --> 00:48:27.400 two spacecraft had different orbits, but at one point came 656 00:48:27.440 --> 00:48:31.719 within three miles of each other, and so that allowed 657 00:48:31.760 --> 00:48:36.920 for a brief exchange of communications. Terraskova spacecraft was guided 658 00:48:36.960 --> 00:48:42.679 by automatic controls. She never took manual control. Just after 659 00:48:42.760 --> 00:48:46.679 three days in space again seventy one orbits, three days 660 00:48:46.679 --> 00:48:52.000 in space, she re entered the atmosphere and then parachuted 661 00:48:52.039 --> 00:48:59.639 to Earth, jumping out at twenty thousand feet. That was 662 00:48:59.679 --> 00:49:04.000 a his historic space flight. For that, Teryskober received the 663 00:49:04.119 --> 00:49:08.039 Order of Lenin Hero of the Soviet Union award. In 664 00:49:08.119 --> 00:49:12.679 November of sixty three, she married a fellow cosmonaut, reportedly 665 00:49:12.719 --> 00:49:18.679 under pressure from the Soviet leader Nikita Khrushchev, who wanted 666 00:49:18.719 --> 00:49:24.800 to take full advantage of the propaganda advantages of putting 667 00:49:24.840 --> 00:49:28.960 those two together. The couple made goodwill trips abroad, had 668 00:49:28.960 --> 00:49:33.320 a daughter. Separated in nineteen sixty six, Terashova became a 669 00:49:33.360 --> 00:49:38.639 member of the Supreme Soviet National Parliament, served as a 670 00:49:38.679 --> 00:49:44.599 Soviet representative to numerous international women's organizations. Never entered space again, 671 00:49:45.559 --> 00:49:48.000 and hers was the last space flight by a female 672 00:49:48.000 --> 00:49:52.880 cosmonaut until the nineteen eighties. So you talk about someone 673 00:49:52.880 --> 00:49:55.119 who was way ahead of the curve, way ahead of 674 00:49:55.159 --> 00:49:59.960 her time, Valentina Terroskober someon. I don't know if there's 675 00:50:00.199 --> 00:50:01.559 I'm gonna have to look and see if there's a 676 00:50:01.599 --> 00:50:05.360 documentary or a movie about about this woman. I think 677 00:50:05.440 --> 00:50:09.440 I think that would be a most interesting movie. Forty 678 00:50:09.440 --> 00:50:14.360 eight orbits seventy one hours. And I did not know 679 00:50:14.400 --> 00:50:18.880 that until just today that when upon returning to Earth, 680 00:50:19.960 --> 00:50:25.440 you had to eject from the capsule, the Vostok capsule 681 00:50:26.480 --> 00:50:32.559 and parachute twenty thousand feet. Imagine that. How about that, 682 00:50:32.599 --> 00:50:36.440 Sean McMahon, anything sound dangerous about that? Sounds perfectly fine 683 00:50:36.440 --> 00:50:41.559 to me, perfectly fine. Five one three seven four nine, 684 00:50:41.639 --> 00:50:44.280 seven thousand and one eight. I'll give them the wrong number. 685 00:50:44.360 --> 00:50:47.719 Five one three, seven four nine fifty five hundred if 686 00:50:47.760 --> 00:50:50.239 you want to get on board. Dan Carroll for Brian Thomas, 687 00:50:50.320 --> 00:50:52.079 fifty five KRCV. 688 00:50:51.639 --> 00:51:02.000 Talks Days, fifty five krc Waking up on the fifty 689 00:51:02.039 --> 00:51:04.679 five krc DE talk station six point thirty on this 690 00:51:04.760 --> 00:51:05.599 Tuesday morning. 691 00:51:06.000 --> 00:51:08.480 Got to get those taxes in today. Today is the day. 692 00:51:09.760 --> 00:51:13.760 And don't get me wrong, I love women. I love women. 693 00:51:13.800 --> 00:51:15.840 I love all the stuff they can do. I think 694 00:51:15.880 --> 00:51:17.880 women are great, but you got to spare me all this, 695 00:51:18.679 --> 00:51:24.119 you know, this historical nonsense that somehow this space flight 696 00:51:24.239 --> 00:51:27.559 yesterday was was significant. I'm glad. I'm glad they did it. 697 00:51:27.639 --> 00:51:30.039 I don't have any problem with them doing it, but 698 00:51:31.000 --> 00:51:34.159 you know, they don't try to apply me with how 699 00:51:34.239 --> 00:51:38.679 significant and how the mankind is going to benefit from 700 00:51:38.719 --> 00:51:40.840 those women going up in space. I'm glad they did it. 701 00:51:43.760 --> 00:51:47.800 I think this is a bigger achievement. A female soldier 702 00:51:47.840 --> 00:51:50.400 becomes the first woman to compete in the Army Ranger 703 00:51:50.440 --> 00:51:54.519 contest from the Associated Press. Female Army Ranger for the 704 00:51:54.559 --> 00:51:58.719 first time competed in the annual Best Ranger competition and 705 00:51:58.800 --> 00:52:01.800 her two soldier team team finished the grueling three day 706 00:52:01.840 --> 00:52:07.480 event over the weekend came in fourteenth overall. First Lieutenant 707 00:52:07.480 --> 00:52:12.239 Gabrielle White and her teammate, Captain Seth del Entree were 708 00:52:12.280 --> 00:52:15.760 among sixteen teams that made it through the final events. 709 00:52:16.119 --> 00:52:18.679 Ranger teams compete for accolades as the best of the 710 00:52:18.679 --> 00:52:24.440 elite military force. Altogether, fifty two teams competed. All the 711 00:52:24.480 --> 00:52:28.719 others were made up of only male soldiers. The two 712 00:52:28.800 --> 00:52:32.079 rangers on the winning team were both members of the 713 00:52:32.119 --> 00:52:36.840 seventy fifth Ranger Regiment, White and del Entree were based 714 00:52:36.880 --> 00:52:39.360 at the are based at the Army Center of Excellence 715 00:52:39.400 --> 00:52:43.519 in Fort Benning, Georgia. Female soldiers were not allowed to 716 00:52:43.519 --> 00:52:47.000 be Army Rangers until twenty fifteen, when the Army opened 717 00:52:47.119 --> 00:52:51.519 Ranger School to women. In August of twenty fifteen, two 718 00:52:51.559 --> 00:52:54.519 female soldiers completed Armed Ranger course for the first time. 719 00:52:54.599 --> 00:52:58.639 Later that year, the Defense Department opened combat jobs to 720 00:52:58.719 --> 00:53:03.079 all women. Petexseth may have some different views on this. 721 00:53:04.960 --> 00:53:08.039 According to the competition, soldiers must move more than sixty 722 00:53:08.119 --> 00:53:11.840 miles during the three days with little rest. It includes 723 00:53:11.840 --> 00:53:16.599 a helicopter mission, physical fitness test, land navigation, weapons qualification, 724 00:53:16.760 --> 00:53:22.039 obstacle course, and other tests. While in previous years the 725 00:53:22.159 --> 00:53:24.559 Army would likely have noticed the historic first in a 726 00:53:24.639 --> 00:53:27.400 story or a press release, that didn't happen this time. 727 00:53:29.280 --> 00:53:32.719 Under the President Donald Trump and Defense Secretary of Pete Hegseth, 728 00:53:33.159 --> 00:53:40.320 the Department has banned anything that touts diversity, equity and inclusion. Well, 729 00:53:40.559 --> 00:53:44.199 you know this doesn't have to go down that line. 730 00:53:45.360 --> 00:53:51.159 You've got a woman who competed in this contest and 731 00:53:52.599 --> 00:53:57.119 met all the qualifications, all the parameters that any mail 732 00:53:57.159 --> 00:53:59.280 had to meet and was able to complete the test. 733 00:54:01.119 --> 00:54:04.159 I finished out the out of side of fifteen groups 734 00:54:04.159 --> 00:54:07.039 that finished it. She was her and her partner were fourteenth. 735 00:54:07.679 --> 00:54:09.559 I think that's pretty good. I think that stands on 736 00:54:09.639 --> 00:54:16.400 its own. You know that there was no special favors given. 737 00:54:18.400 --> 00:54:24.159 You want to come and compete, come and compete, but 738 00:54:24.480 --> 00:54:27.360 you know they don't ask for special favors along the way. 739 00:54:27.400 --> 00:54:30.000 And apparently that did not happen here. And I would 740 00:54:30.039 --> 00:54:33.679 imagine under Pete Hegseth that nothing like that would ever happen. 741 00:54:34.639 --> 00:54:37.280 So I think that's pretty good. So I say congratulations 742 00:54:37.880 --> 00:54:46.320 to Captain Seth Delentree and First Lieutenant Gabrielle White. Joe's 743 00:54:46.320 --> 00:54:49.559 in Fairfield and Joe, you're on fifty five krs C. 744 00:54:49.679 --> 00:54:53.440 Good morning. How are you Dan? I'm fantastic. Her are you, sir? 745 00:54:53.519 --> 00:54:55.679 I'm good. What's up? Well? 746 00:54:55.719 --> 00:54:58.519 I was doing some research on this in a great 747 00:54:58.519 --> 00:55:01.199 story there with the female cosma not and then I 748 00:55:01.280 --> 00:55:04.639 realized that Rush it is yeah, and I realized it 749 00:55:04.719 --> 00:55:08.519 Rush had also been the first to send their reporters 750 00:55:08.519 --> 00:55:10.280 and their anchors into space as well. 751 00:55:10.599 --> 00:55:16.760 It's just that they chose not to use the parachutes. Well, yeah, 752 00:55:17.639 --> 00:55:20.880 that might be a good plan with you know, if 753 00:55:20.880 --> 00:55:23.639 they if they weren't towing the company line, that might 754 00:55:23.639 --> 00:55:26.239 have been the faith that a lot of them, you 755 00:55:26.280 --> 00:55:26.719 know lost. 756 00:55:27.039 --> 00:55:29.719 Donald Cruf has his way to Donald has his way 757 00:55:29.760 --> 00:55:30.440 of dealing with him. 758 00:55:30.440 --> 00:55:32.719 I guess the Cosinos have their way of dealing with their. 759 00:55:32.719 --> 00:55:37.760 So that's pretty good. Sometimes the old ways, Sometimes the 760 00:55:37.760 --> 00:55:44.360 old ways are the best ways. I'll drink that all right, 761 00:55:44.840 --> 00:55:47.400 But Joe, do you feel do you feel better this morning? 762 00:55:47.400 --> 00:55:50.239 After the historic mission by Katy Perry and Gail King 763 00:55:50.320 --> 00:55:54.000 and the other women on board the U, the voice 764 00:55:54.039 --> 00:55:56.320 will never be the same for me or. 765 00:55:56.239 --> 00:55:59.559 Whatever it was that they hosted Katie. 766 00:56:00.440 --> 00:56:03.199 He was a judge on American Idol for a few seasons. 767 00:56:03.920 --> 00:56:06.039 Well, I would imagine this is just going to open 768 00:56:06.119 --> 00:56:10.079 up her mind, you know, to the possibilities of of 769 00:56:10.320 --> 00:56:11.519 you know, any kind of talent. 770 00:56:11.679 --> 00:56:14.800 So, yeah, she's done it all now. Yeah, I guess 771 00:56:14.800 --> 00:56:16.559 she sang a song on the way back down, and 772 00:56:16.599 --> 00:56:20.599 the women thought that was especially especially meaningful. And and 773 00:56:20.880 --> 00:56:23.039 you know, I'm gonna I'm gonna talk to Steve Gorum 774 00:56:23.039 --> 00:56:24.559 a little bit later and find out what kind of 775 00:56:24.599 --> 00:56:27.119 science experiments can be can be carried out in the 776 00:56:27.119 --> 00:56:30.159 span of eleven minutes. That'll be interesting to see with 777 00:56:30.280 --> 00:56:34.280 the stuffed animal. Absolutely if they pass that around as well. Joe, 778 00:56:34.360 --> 00:56:36.840 thanks for the call this morning. All right, but here 779 00:56:36.880 --> 00:56:38.679 you there you go. Joe's having a little fun with 780 00:56:38.719 --> 00:56:42.199 that as well. He should. That's good stuff. Six thirty 781 00:56:42.199 --> 00:56:45.039 five Dan Carroll in for Brian Thomas. Fifty five KRC 782 00:56:45.840 --> 00:56:46.559 the talk station. 783 00:56:46.840 --> 00:56:50.159 This is fifty five KRC and iHeartRadio station. 784 00:56:50.639 --> 00:57:05.760 So how do we Sean McMahon rolling out the hard 785 00:57:05.840 --> 00:57:10.159 rocket stuff this morning. That'll get you up and moved. 786 00:57:10.519 --> 00:57:14.079 Fifty five KOC Detalk station. Dan Carroll hanging out for 787 00:57:14.119 --> 00:57:18.320 Brian Thomas. Doge is continuing to do great work. Now, 788 00:57:18.400 --> 00:57:20.679 if you have a grievance with the federal government and 789 00:57:20.719 --> 00:57:24.519 how the government is spending your tax money, if you 790 00:57:24.599 --> 00:57:30.079 have a complaint about wasteful practices or bureaucracy, you can 791 00:57:30.159 --> 00:57:34.119 now go to the Department of Government Efficiency, which has 792 00:57:34.159 --> 00:57:37.519 an Internet portal where you can take your complaint directly 793 00:57:37.559 --> 00:57:42.679 to them. The Department of Government Efficiency launched a website 794 00:57:42.719 --> 00:57:47.000 where Americans can directly report and suggest how to deregulate 795 00:57:47.039 --> 00:57:52.559 policies within the federal government. Your voice in federal decision making. 796 00:57:52.679 --> 00:57:57.119 Reads the website regulations dot gov. Impacted by an existing 797 00:57:57.199 --> 00:58:03.400 rule of regulation, share your ideas for deregulation by completing 798 00:58:03.400 --> 00:58:09.639 this form. That's a great idea. They are certainly according 799 00:58:09.639 --> 00:58:14.079 to red State, they're opening the floodgates to all this. 800 00:58:15.079 --> 00:58:18.199 But now we don't have to wait around to let 801 00:58:18.239 --> 00:58:21.280 the government know how we feel about the money that 802 00:58:21.400 --> 00:58:25.400 they that they take from us. DOGE worked with the 803 00:58:25.440 --> 00:58:29.840 Government Services Administration, independent agency task with helping support the 804 00:58:29.880 --> 00:58:35.320 function of other federal agencies, and the Office of Management 805 00:58:35.360 --> 00:58:38.639 and Budget, which is the federal office frequently charged with 806 00:58:38.719 --> 00:58:43.840 overseeing deregulation efforts. Doges combining the administration goals of adding 807 00:58:43.840 --> 00:58:49.079 transparency and slashing waste, fraud, and abuse by offering the 808 00:58:49.119 --> 00:58:55.039 American people the unique opportunity to recommend more deregulatory actions. 809 00:58:56.159 --> 00:58:59.199 The Doge led effort highlights Trump's priority to put the 810 00:58:59.239 --> 00:59:05.280 first of the people first, and government bureaucrats last, said 811 00:59:05.679 --> 00:59:11.599 White House spokesperson or a spokeswoman, Taylor Rogers. That's pretty 812 00:59:11.599 --> 00:59:15.039 cool though. So if you have a complaint about the government, 813 00:59:16.039 --> 00:59:20.440 maybe you work for the government. I mean, anyone can 814 00:59:20.480 --> 00:59:25.920 do this you can go to the government portal. I 815 00:59:25.960 --> 00:59:28.599 have not tried this yet, so if you want to 816 00:59:28.639 --> 00:59:32.159 try it, it's called regulations dot gov. Let's see. I mean, 817 00:59:32.159 --> 00:59:36.519 there's a link on this story here deregulation or regulations 818 00:59:36.559 --> 00:59:40.559 dot gov. Then it's got deregulation suggestions and if you 819 00:59:40.639 --> 00:59:43.639 have an idea for cutting existing rules of regulations, we 820 00:59:43.679 --> 00:59:47.199 want to hear from you. And they've got some boxes 821 00:59:47.239 --> 00:59:49.079 you fill out here and just scroll down the form 822 00:59:49.599 --> 00:59:53.639 and away you go. So you can now go directly 823 00:59:53.679 --> 00:59:58.599 to the government thanks to Doge to deregulate stuff. And 824 00:59:58.719 --> 01:00:02.119 Doge and the Dog's website continues to rock and roll. 825 01:00:02.400 --> 01:00:05.760 They continue to put stuff out that I like, stuff 826 01:00:05.760 --> 01:00:09.000 that they are cutting. Here's what Doge wrote last night. 827 01:00:09.079 --> 01:00:13.039 Agencies terminated one hundred and eighty wasteful contracts with a 828 01:00:13.039 --> 01:00:17.719 ceiling value of three point three billion dollars and savings 829 01:00:17.719 --> 01:00:21.360 of two point six billion, including I love this one 830 01:00:21.800 --> 01:00:26.000 eighty five and a half thousand dollars. This was an 831 01:00:26.000 --> 01:00:35.719 EPA contract for live plant maintenance services. Live plant maintenance services. 832 01:00:37.119 --> 01:00:42.559 What do you think that means? Live plant maintenance services. 833 01:00:43.119 --> 01:00:47.280 That's a contract that costs the EPA eighty five thousand dollars. Now, 834 01:00:47.920 --> 01:00:50.320 it's been a while since I've been in an EPA building. 835 01:00:52.280 --> 01:00:54.880 The last one I was in, I don't remember a 836 01:00:54.960 --> 01:00:57.119 lot of flowers. I don't remember a lot of plants 837 01:00:57.159 --> 01:01:00.760 being there. They might have been fake that I saw. 838 01:01:02.320 --> 01:01:04.599 I guess I haven't. I don't think we have, Sean 839 01:01:04.639 --> 01:01:07.199 McMann do. We don't have any plants around here, do we? 840 01:01:08.199 --> 01:01:08.239 No? 841 01:01:09.159 --> 01:01:11.599 I can't think of a single plant. Maybe someone has 842 01:01:11.599 --> 01:01:15.760 one in an office somewhere I haven't seen. But uh, 843 01:01:16.199 --> 01:01:18.239 of course, we have no access to the outside world 844 01:01:18.320 --> 01:01:20.920 here in this studio. But when I look out the 845 01:01:21.000 --> 01:01:23.920 little sliver in the door there, you know, I look 846 01:01:23.960 --> 01:01:26.400 out in the area where there's a bunch of tables 847 01:01:26.440 --> 01:01:28.360 and a bunch of chairs and a bunch of cubicles. 848 01:01:30.400 --> 01:01:33.840 I don't see us decorating with plants that really anywhere. 849 01:01:34.920 --> 01:01:38.920 But at the EPA, I guess they have plants. And 850 01:01:39.000 --> 01:01:42.920 the contract to water those plants costs eighty five grand. 851 01:01:44.239 --> 01:01:47.360 Well Doge looked at that and said, nah, bah bah nah. 852 01:01:47.400 --> 01:01:51.800 And now the EPA team, the internal EPA team, will 853 01:01:51.840 --> 01:01:54.880 handle the watering of the plants while saving US eighty 854 01:01:54.920 --> 01:02:00.000 five thousand dollars. Anyone opposed to that. Anyone think that's 855 01:02:00.119 --> 01:02:04.480 not a good thing. Here's another two hundred and sixty 856 01:02:04.480 --> 01:02:10.199 five thousand dollars Health and Human Services contract for social 857 01:02:10.400 --> 01:02:17.079 media monitoring, subscription, training and platforms set up so for 858 01:02:17.199 --> 01:02:24.280 Health and Human Services to monitor social media and you 859 01:02:24.280 --> 01:02:29.400 you buy a subscription for that for whatever reason, cost 860 01:02:29.440 --> 01:02:35.079 two hundred and sixty five thousand dollars a year. Maybe 861 01:02:35.119 --> 01:02:39.159 there's someone who's better versed in the Internet than I am. 862 01:02:39.280 --> 01:02:45.079 I believe there are some companies that, for very good reasons, 863 01:02:45.239 --> 01:02:49.360 monitor social media to see what's being said about them, 864 01:02:50.360 --> 01:02:52.280 see if there's anything they need to get ahead of, 865 01:02:53.280 --> 01:02:56.119 see if you know they're they're you know, on top 866 01:02:56.159 --> 01:02:58.239 of the latest trends, or whatever the case may be. 867 01:03:00.199 --> 01:03:03.519 I'm sure there's plenty of companies that find that sort 868 01:03:03.559 --> 01:03:06.840 of service invaluable, and maybe you do it in house. 869 01:03:06.960 --> 01:03:12.280 I don't know. But to spend two hundred and sixty 870 01:03:12.320 --> 01:03:17.800 five thousand dollars on it for that contract, maybe it's 871 01:03:17.920 --> 01:03:21.239 just me that seems a little excessive, and I'm glad 872 01:03:21.239 --> 01:03:23.920 they took it out. Six forty six Dan Carroll for 873 01:03:23.920 --> 01:03:26.599 Brian Thomas, I'm fifty five KRCD talk station. 874 01:03:26.760 --> 01:03:28.599 Fifty five krc. 875 01:03:28.559 --> 01:03:35.679 Hello, I'm Victor Gray and I'm calling fifty five KRCD 876 01:03:35.800 --> 01:03:38.800 talk station. Dan Carroll for Brian Thomas five one, three 877 01:03:38.960 --> 01:03:42.280 seven four nine fifty five hundred. Rich from New Richmond 878 01:03:42.320 --> 01:03:46.559 is on the phone, and Rich, how are you this morning? Fine? 879 01:03:46.599 --> 01:03:47.440 How are you doing? 880 01:03:47.559 --> 01:03:47.800 Dan? 881 01:03:47.960 --> 01:03:48.199 Good? 882 01:03:48.280 --> 01:03:48.480 Rich? 883 01:03:48.519 --> 01:03:49.320 What you got for me? 884 01:03:50.440 --> 01:03:54.679 Well, the EPA they must be doing a little bit 885 01:03:54.719 --> 01:03:59.840 of work doing. I think it because all the carbon 886 01:04:00.119 --> 01:04:04.800 oxide that they are breeding and in that building, Uh, 887 01:04:04.840 --> 01:04:07.679 they need the plants to turn that back into oxygen. 888 01:04:08.000 --> 01:04:13.639 I guess, well, is it is the e p A. Look, 889 01:04:13.920 --> 01:04:17.239 you've had all these government agencies where after the Wuhan, 890 01:04:17.480 --> 01:04:20.760 no one decided to come to work anymore. So we 891 01:04:20.880 --> 01:04:22.440 know that that was one of the first things that 892 01:04:22.480 --> 01:04:25.039 Doage talked about was all these government buildings that we 893 01:04:25.159 --> 01:04:27.719 have and all this rent that we pay and the 894 01:04:27.880 --> 01:04:31.239 and the buildings are largely empty. So I guess you've 895 01:04:31.280 --> 01:04:34.639 got the plants in there waiting for people to come back. So, 896 01:04:34.960 --> 01:04:37.360 you know, are people going back to work? I guess 897 01:04:37.400 --> 01:04:38.960 maybe they are going back to work at the e 898 01:04:39.039 --> 01:04:39.280 p A. 899 01:04:40.360 --> 01:04:40.760 I don't know. 900 01:04:40.880 --> 01:04:44.679 That might be an problem because it's too much oxygen. 901 01:04:44.760 --> 01:04:45.800 Maybe it'll blow up. 902 01:04:46.159 --> 01:04:50.480 I don't who knows, but I love the fact that 903 01:04:50.840 --> 01:04:52.679 I'm sure there's people at the E p A who 904 01:04:52.719 --> 01:04:54.800 sit around and don't do a whole lot during the day. 905 01:04:55.119 --> 01:04:56.639 But now at least once a day they're gonna have 906 01:04:56.679 --> 01:04:58.599 to pick up the watering can or the coffee pot 907 01:04:58.639 --> 01:05:01.239 and go water the plants. I think that's great, and 908 01:05:01.320 --> 01:05:05.239 they earned a little bit of that money they're making. Yeah, 909 01:05:06.119 --> 01:05:08.519 thank you, rich I appreciate the phone call very much. 910 01:05:08.559 --> 01:05:11.199 And that was rich and New Richmond, and I hope 911 01:05:11.239 --> 01:05:14.800 he was avoiding the flood there. Bill Maher has been 912 01:05:14.840 --> 01:05:17.039 the last couple of days he's been out talking about 913 01:05:17.280 --> 01:05:20.760 and he made a lengthy video talking about the dinner 914 01:05:21.159 --> 01:05:23.960 that he had with Donald Trump. And look, I am 915 01:05:24.000 --> 01:05:27.440 not a Bill Maher devote I am not a Bill 916 01:05:27.480 --> 01:05:33.079 Maher fan. I think I don't watch his show on 917 01:05:33.320 --> 01:05:36.639 What is It on HBO. I see some clips of 918 01:05:36.679 --> 01:05:39.880 the stuff he does once in a while. I think 919 01:05:39.960 --> 01:05:43.000 the I think there are times when he can be 920 01:05:43.039 --> 01:05:45.440 spot on. I think there are times when he can 921 01:05:45.480 --> 01:05:49.360 be brutally honest. I think he has done the Democrat 922 01:05:49.400 --> 01:05:52.679 Party a huge favor by calling a spade a spade 923 01:05:52.679 --> 01:05:58.320 and calling out in a manner that everyone can understand 924 01:05:58.960 --> 01:06:04.159 the difficulties Democrat Party is having. And so over the weekend, 925 01:06:04.360 --> 01:06:06.880 he got invited to the White House with Kid Rock 926 01:06:07.320 --> 01:06:11.199 to have dinner with Donald Trump. And at first he 927 01:06:11.360 --> 01:06:13.480 was kind of blown away about it, not sure if 928 01:06:13.480 --> 01:06:15.800 he wanted to do it, but then thought better of 929 01:06:15.840 --> 01:06:17.800 it and said, you know what, this could wind up 930 01:06:17.840 --> 01:06:22.199 being a good thing. And so he has come back 931 01:06:22.280 --> 01:06:26.920 now after his dinner and he's talking about his experience 932 01:06:26.960 --> 01:06:31.159 with Donald Trump and being honest about it, and he 933 01:06:31.159 --> 01:06:34.719 he said essentially that his mind was blown that he 934 01:06:34.800 --> 01:06:37.159 came to the realization that Trump is much more self 935 01:06:37.239 --> 01:06:41.400 aware and personable than he ever imagined. He said, everything 936 01:06:41.480 --> 01:06:44.599 I never liked about him was I swear to God absent, 937 01:06:45.199 --> 01:06:49.679 mar said. And so he talked about and you know, 938 01:06:49.719 --> 01:06:52.199 he went there with Kid Rock, and I think Dana 939 01:06:52.239 --> 01:06:55.599 White was there and a couple of others, and he 940 01:06:55.639 --> 01:06:58.119 tells us to go look at the video. The video 941 01:06:58.159 --> 01:07:01.239 was actually pretty compelling of Bill Maher telling the story 942 01:07:01.280 --> 01:07:04.480 about his dinner with Trump. But now there are certain 943 01:07:04.519 --> 01:07:06.840 journalists out there who are looking at this and they're 944 01:07:06.880 --> 01:07:11.000 firing at Bill Maher talking about how he's been caught 945 01:07:11.039 --> 01:07:15.519 up in the in the Trump propaganda. They are suggesting 946 01:07:15.599 --> 01:07:19.360 now that he is nothing more than a useful idiot 947 01:07:20.079 --> 01:07:24.840 for Trump, part of a publicity stunt. And Bill Maher, 948 01:07:24.840 --> 01:07:28.800 to his credit, is defending himself and and he's telling, 949 01:07:29.039 --> 01:07:32.000 you know, these people that they are wrong, you know. 950 01:07:32.280 --> 01:07:35.440 And it is beyond me why some people just cannot 951 01:07:35.480 --> 01:07:40.599 abuid that people of different political outlooks can get together 952 01:07:40.719 --> 01:07:44.800 and then have and have an honest conversation there. I mean, 953 01:07:44.840 --> 01:07:46.679 there are plenty of things of Bill Maher if you 954 01:07:46.719 --> 01:07:50.039 listen to what he said. There are plenty of things 955 01:07:50.039 --> 01:07:52.559 that he brought up the Trump that that were in 956 01:07:52.599 --> 01:07:56.840 a disagreement with the Trump policy. And he talks about 957 01:07:56.880 --> 01:08:00.360 Trump Trump's reaction to that, and you know how honest 958 01:08:00.360 --> 01:08:04.480 and genuine he thought Trump was. But you know, the 959 01:08:04.800 --> 01:08:08.960 notion that you can't have people at different outlooks break 960 01:08:09.000 --> 01:08:11.760 bread together and then have an honest conversation about it, 961 01:08:12.440 --> 01:08:15.199 who's the one who's being short sighted? There? Six fifty 962 01:08:15.199 --> 01:08:20.319 five on fifty five krs the talk stations. News happens fast, 963 01:08:21.039 --> 01:08:22.880 stay up to date. At the top of the hour, 964 01:08:23.000 --> 01:08:27.640 we're moving very quickly fifty five krs the talk station. 965 01:08:28.000 --> 01:08:45.560 This report is sponsored by Generate fifty five KRS the 966 01:08:45.680 --> 01:08:51.159 talk station Good Tuesday Morning, Dan Carroll in for Brian Thomas. 967 01:08:51.239 --> 01:08:53.760 I get to be here Wednesday and Thursday as well. 968 01:08:54.840 --> 01:08:57.439 Sean McMahon running the big board in the fifty five 969 01:08:57.520 --> 01:08:59.680 KRC command center. So when you call in, make sure 970 01:08:59.720 --> 01:09:03.359 you say hay him. Five one, three nine fifty five 971 01:09:03.439 --> 01:09:06.199 hundred is the number to call. Attorney James Bogan joins 972 01:09:06.279 --> 01:09:08.640 us at the bottom of the hour, and we've got 973 01:09:08.840 --> 01:09:11.159 some subjects. We'll be kicking around with him. Big deal 974 01:09:11.199 --> 01:09:15.199 at the White House yesterday, and I must say the 975 01:09:15.199 --> 01:09:17.520 the way Trump is running things at the White House 976 01:09:18.720 --> 01:09:23.039 is thoroughly entertaining to me. It is anyway, you know, 977 01:09:23.079 --> 01:09:26.399 I like all this political stuff, like the I like 978 01:09:26.439 --> 01:09:28.439 to set up. I like the fact that when he 979 01:09:28.520 --> 01:09:32.479 meets with these different world leaders, it's not just a 980 01:09:32.479 --> 01:09:34.239 little bit of a photo op. And then, you know, 981 01:09:34.319 --> 01:09:37.880 like Biden did you the reporters would throw questions at 982 01:09:37.960 --> 01:09:39.800 him and he would just stand there with that just 983 01:09:39.840 --> 01:09:46.079 sit there with that look on his face and really 984 01:09:46.159 --> 01:09:50.479 just proving what what a jerk he really is. Trump is. 985 01:09:50.600 --> 01:09:52.479 You know, he's got the reporters in there, they're all 986 01:09:52.479 --> 01:09:56.279 over the place. They're loud, they're yelling, they're boisterous. Yeah, 987 01:09:56.319 --> 01:10:00.359 he's got cabinet members there too. And yesterday he was 988 01:10:00.399 --> 01:10:06.199 with the President of Al Salvador Naive Bukayley, b u 989 01:10:06.319 --> 01:10:09.000 k e l e Bukayley. I guess that is how 990 01:10:09.000 --> 01:10:12.159 you say his name. I apologize for f Iro'm mispronouncing it. 991 01:10:13.319 --> 01:10:17.720 But he was there, and he declined to ask the 992 01:10:17.840 --> 01:10:21.479 l Salvadoran president to return this dude that got mistakenly 993 01:10:21.560 --> 01:10:26.279 deported to El Salvador. Trump didn't want to bother the 994 01:10:27.000 --> 01:10:29.640 the President of Al Salvador with it, but some of 995 01:10:29.680 --> 01:10:33.800 the reporters did. And so when the President of Al 996 01:10:33.880 --> 01:10:37.319 Salvador was asked about that, I believe it was Caitlyn 997 01:10:37.359 --> 01:10:41.680 Collins from CNN who asked the who asked the question. 998 01:10:42.800 --> 01:10:44.960 The President of Al Salvador just gave it right back 999 01:10:45.000 --> 01:10:48.119 to her. And Sean mcmanon, let's hear cut number one please. 1000 01:10:48.399 --> 01:10:52.199 Well, I suppose I suggested that I smuggle a terrorists 1001 01:10:52.199 --> 01:10:56.319 into the United States? Right, how can I smuggle How 1002 01:10:56.359 --> 01:10:57.359 can I returned him to. 1003 01:10:57.279 --> 01:10:57.840 The United State? 1004 01:10:57.840 --> 01:11:00.000 If I could, I smuggle him and to the United States? 1005 01:11:00.079 --> 01:11:00.720 So what do we do it? 1006 01:11:00.720 --> 01:11:02.079 Of course, I'm not going to do it. 1007 01:11:02.319 --> 01:11:06.199 It's like, I mean, the questions were busters, how can 1008 01:11:06.239 --> 01:11:08.960 I smuggle the terrorists at to the United States. 1009 01:11:09.039 --> 01:11:10.960 I don't have the power to return him to the 1010 01:11:11.079 --> 01:11:11.960 United States. 1011 01:11:12.720 --> 01:11:16.760 So there's the president of Al Salvador saying, look, you know, 1012 01:11:16.800 --> 01:11:20.479 I'm not I'm not in the smuggling business. Uh this 1013 01:11:20.680 --> 01:11:25.960 kill Maar Abrego Garcia, citizen of Al Salvador, deported by 1014 01:11:26.000 --> 01:11:34.079 the Trump administration. Apparently they're saying by mistake. The Supreme 1015 01:11:34.119 --> 01:11:38.720 Court ruled the administration must facilitate his return. But during 1016 01:11:38.760 --> 01:11:42.880 the uh the Oval office visit there, you heard what 1017 01:11:43.119 --> 01:11:45.439 the what the president had to say, can't smuggle the 1018 01:11:45.520 --> 01:11:51.159 terrorist into the United States. But this wasn't good enough 1019 01:11:51.199 --> 01:11:56.119 for Caitlin Collins, the CNN reporter who was there, who 1020 01:11:57.520 --> 01:12:00.520 loves to give Trump and his cabinet at our time 1021 01:12:01.319 --> 01:12:06.600 whenever she gets the chance. And so there's a you're 1022 01:12:06.640 --> 01:12:09.760 you're going to hear in this next SoundBite, you're going 1023 01:12:09.800 --> 01:12:11.479 to hear a couple of different people. You're going to 1024 01:12:11.479 --> 01:12:14.640 hear Marco Rubio, and then you're going to hear Steven Miller, 1025 01:12:15.119 --> 01:12:19.680 and they are laying out for this reporter and all 1026 01:12:19.720 --> 01:12:22.880 the reporters in the room, exactly how foreign policy is 1027 01:12:22.880 --> 01:12:26.039 supposed to work. And this is the kind of give 1028 01:12:26.079 --> 01:12:29.680 and take that we never saw from the Biden administration. 1029 01:12:29.800 --> 01:12:32.920 We never saw it from the Obama administration. I don't 1030 01:12:32.920 --> 01:12:35.880 think we I really don't think we ever saw it 1031 01:12:36.840 --> 01:12:41.920 during the any of the Bush administrations. This is the kind, 1032 01:12:42.199 --> 01:12:45.159 to my way of thinking, this is the way things 1033 01:12:45.199 --> 01:12:49.880 ought to be. It's the United States of America, for 1034 01:12:49.920 --> 01:12:55.279 God's sake. Let the reporters in there. When when you 1035 01:12:55.359 --> 01:12:58.000 had Joe Biden in office, all he could do was 1036 01:13:00.119 --> 01:13:03.239 it on that fake set. It kind of looked loud 1037 01:13:03.239 --> 01:13:06.239 on that time. Remember the tiny little desk. He would 1038 01:13:06.239 --> 01:13:08.960 sit over there and there'd be monitors all around. I 1039 01:13:08.960 --> 01:13:12.199 guess they put that together because of the Wuhan, And 1040 01:13:12.239 --> 01:13:16.520 they still I saw I don't know what it was. 1041 01:13:16.560 --> 01:13:18.840 It was say it with some cabinet members and they 1042 01:13:18.840 --> 01:13:22.000 were doing some sort of event, and I think they 1043 01:13:22.000 --> 01:13:24.680 were on that that set that Biden would use. There's 1044 01:13:24.720 --> 01:13:26.880 no way I can I cannot imagine that Trump will 1045 01:13:26.920 --> 01:13:30.000 ever go on there or set foot on that. He's 1046 01:13:30.039 --> 01:13:33.880 going to do his stuff from the Oval office. But 1047 01:13:34.000 --> 01:13:37.680 here's here's the the way this this went down when 1048 01:13:38.000 --> 01:13:41.399 they were And this is what I love about Trump. 1049 01:13:41.439 --> 01:13:43.359 He's got his cabinet members there. He says, you guys 1050 01:13:43.359 --> 01:13:46.640 handle this question. He let says, he lets his people 1051 01:13:48.000 --> 01:13:51.640 talk in their area of expertise. And I thought this 1052 01:13:51.840 --> 01:13:54.880 was great. And with that, Sean McMann, let's hear cut 1053 01:13:54.960 --> 01:13:55.359 number two. 1054 01:13:55.359 --> 01:13:59.680 Please, I don't understand what this individual is a citizen 1055 01:13:59.680 --> 01:14:02.079 of else He was illegally in the United States and 1056 01:14:02.199 --> 01:14:04.920 was returned to his country. That's where you deport people 1057 01:14:04.960 --> 01:14:06.159 back to their country of origin. 1058 01:14:06.399 --> 01:14:07.279 Except for Venezuela. 1059 01:14:07.359 --> 01:14:09.880 That wasn't refusing to take people back of places like that. 1060 01:14:10.279 --> 01:14:13.000 I can tell you this, mister President. No, the foreign 1061 01:14:13.039 --> 01:14:15.359 policy of the United States is conducted by the President 1062 01:14:15.359 --> 01:14:17.720 of the United States, not by a court. And no 1063 01:14:17.880 --> 01:14:20.199 court in the United States has a right to conduct 1064 01:14:20.199 --> 01:14:21.760 the foreign policy of the United States. 1065 01:14:21.840 --> 01:14:24.560 It's that simple end the story, and that's what you 1066 01:14:24.600 --> 01:14:26.640 secrete for it telling. By the way, it's a Marco's point. 1067 01:14:26.840 --> 01:14:28.680 The court said exactly. 1068 01:14:28.319 --> 01:14:31.000 What Marco said, that no court has the authority to 1069 01:14:31.039 --> 01:14:33.520 compel the foreign policy fund the United States. We want 1070 01:14:33.520 --> 01:14:36.119 a case nine to zero, and people like CNN are 1071 01:14:36.119 --> 01:14:38.680 portraying it as a loss, as usual because they want 1072 01:14:38.720 --> 01:14:41.760 foreign terrorists in the country who kidnap women and children. 1073 01:14:41.880 --> 01:14:45.000 But President Trump his policy is foreign terrorists that are 1074 01:14:45.000 --> 01:14:47.479 here illegally get expelled from the country, which by the way, 1075 01:14:47.560 --> 01:14:48.800 is a ninety ten issue. 1076 01:14:49.079 --> 01:14:51.479 Well, the President, you said that if the Supreme Court 1077 01:14:51.479 --> 01:14:56.439 says like we need to be returned today, how long 1078 01:14:56.479 --> 01:14:58.520 do we have to answer this question from you? 1079 01:14:59.000 --> 01:15:01.800 Why didn't you just say, isn't it wonderful that we're 1080 01:15:01.880 --> 01:15:03.600 keeping criminals out of our country? 1081 01:15:03.640 --> 01:15:06.000 Why can't you just say that? Why do you go 1082 01:15:06.359 --> 01:15:08.199 over and over? And that's why. 1083 01:15:08.039 --> 01:15:09.359 Nobody watches you anymore? 1084 01:15:09.479 --> 01:15:14.359 You know you have no credibility. There you go, there's true. 1085 01:15:14.479 --> 01:15:16.359 Why do we have to listen to this question over 1086 01:15:16.399 --> 01:15:19.600 and over and over again? And he lets say he 1087 01:15:19.680 --> 01:15:22.600 lets him ask it. It's not as if he's shutting 1088 01:15:22.640 --> 01:15:27.079 them up. He's got a You heard Marco Rubo, Marco 1089 01:15:27.159 --> 01:15:30.840 Rubio say it right there. Look, the guy is from 1090 01:15:30.960 --> 01:15:34.680 El Salvador. He was in the country. I think he 1091 01:15:34.720 --> 01:15:36.560 said he was in the country. Illeague se can you 1092 01:15:36.560 --> 01:15:38.119 play the first part of that bite again? I want 1093 01:15:38.119 --> 01:15:39.840 to hear of Marco Rubio said he. I thought Marco 1094 01:15:39.880 --> 01:15:42.560 Rubio was really good on this. I understand. 1095 01:15:44.000 --> 01:15:46.720 This individual is a citizen of El Salvador. He was 1096 01:15:46.760 --> 01:15:49.840 illegally in the United States and was returned to his country. 1097 01:15:49.880 --> 01:15:52.159 That's where you deport people back to their country of origin, 1098 01:15:52.399 --> 01:15:55.000 except for Venezuela that wasn't refusing to take people back 1099 01:15:55.000 --> 01:15:55.880 of places like that. 1100 01:15:56.319 --> 01:15:57.800 I can tell you this, mister President. 1101 01:15:58.119 --> 01:16:00.880 No, the foreign policy of the United States conducted by 1102 01:16:00.920 --> 01:16:02.840 the President of the United States, not by a court. 1103 01:16:03.479 --> 01:16:05.760 And no court in the United States has a right 1104 01:16:05.800 --> 01:16:07.760 to conduct the foreign policy of the United States. 1105 01:16:07.840 --> 01:16:10.680 It's that simple, and the story there you go. So 1106 01:16:11.359 --> 01:16:15.600 Marco Rubio guy was in the United States illegally, now 1107 01:16:15.640 --> 01:16:19.439 he's back in El Salvador. Should he be in prison, 1108 01:16:19.520 --> 01:16:23.720 I don't know. But no court has the right to 1109 01:16:23.760 --> 01:16:27.960 conduct foreign policy, and Marco Rubio is making it plain 1110 01:16:28.199 --> 01:16:34.239 as it can possibly be, and they are proceeding under that, 1111 01:16:36.119 --> 01:16:40.119 under that authority to do what needs to be done. 1112 01:16:42.960 --> 01:16:46.159 But you know, the Left wants to spend this narrative that, oh, 1113 01:16:46.279 --> 01:16:50.760 we've got one, We've got one who might have mistakenly 1114 01:16:50.840 --> 01:16:53.640 been deported and kicked out of the country. How many 1115 01:16:53.640 --> 01:16:56.560 more are there, We'll trust me. If there were more, 1116 01:16:56.680 --> 01:16:59.119 and they could find more. It'd be all over the news. 1117 01:17:00.479 --> 01:17:04.079 They would love nothing more than to suggest and they 1118 01:17:04.199 --> 01:17:09.640 still there is still plenty of leftist commentators out there 1119 01:17:10.359 --> 01:17:13.560 who are suggesting that Trump is going to go after 1120 01:17:13.600 --> 01:17:16.720 American citizens that he doesn't like. And if you're a 1121 01:17:16.760 --> 01:17:20.239 citizen of America and you say something that Trump doesn't like, 1122 01:17:20.720 --> 01:17:22.920 you do something that he doesn't like, then he's going 1123 01:17:23.000 --> 01:17:26.119 to deport you out of the country. They're still trying 1124 01:17:26.159 --> 01:17:30.239 to go after that. No, they are going after the 1125 01:17:30.319 --> 01:17:34.560 dangerous criminals, like Steven Miller said, people who want to rape, 1126 01:17:34.720 --> 01:17:38.479 people who want to murder, people who want to to steal, 1127 01:17:38.800 --> 01:17:42.399 bring in drugs, human trafficking, sex trafficking, all the rest 1128 01:17:42.439 --> 01:17:45.840 of it. Those are the kind of people that we 1129 01:17:45.880 --> 01:17:48.560 want out. But yet there are certain courts in this 1130 01:17:48.640 --> 01:17:54.960 country and certain journalists in this country who want these 1131 01:17:55.039 --> 01:17:59.319 kind of people in the country. And so that you 1132 01:17:59.319 --> 01:18:03.359 know that that is why when Trump look normally, when 1133 01:18:03.439 --> 01:18:06.920 a foreign visitor comes to the White House in the 1134 01:18:06.920 --> 01:18:10.720 Oval Office, they sit there in those yellow chairs. I 1135 01:18:10.760 --> 01:18:13.920 guess you know there's fireplace in the background. They take 1136 01:18:13.960 --> 01:18:17.640 a picture of them and shaking hands. They as far 1137 01:18:17.720 --> 01:18:20.600 as Biden was concerned, they would recite a couple of 1138 01:18:20.640 --> 01:18:25.199 prepared remarks. Obama certainly did that as well. There's nothing 1139 01:18:25.279 --> 01:18:29.319 genuine there, nothing that is really newsworthy. But look at 1140 01:18:29.319 --> 01:18:34.279 what Trump. What Trump is doing, He's having He's having 1141 01:18:34.319 --> 01:18:40.600 a legitimate exchange, a real life back and forth. You've 1142 01:18:40.640 --> 01:18:44.239 got these reporters trying to throw Trump and his people 1143 01:18:44.239 --> 01:18:47.359 off their game, and they're and they're saying, bring it, 1144 01:18:48.079 --> 01:18:52.520 we are ready for you. You tell me. Are they 1145 01:18:52.520 --> 01:18:55.600 trying to cover something up, they trying to act, you know, 1146 01:18:55.640 --> 01:18:57.560 are they acting as if they're doing something that they 1147 01:18:57.560 --> 01:19:02.239 shouldn't be doing. I don't think so. So this is 1148 01:19:02.279 --> 01:19:04.560 why when whenever you've got an event like this in 1149 01:19:04.600 --> 01:19:07.159 the White House, to my way of thinking, I'm going 1150 01:19:07.239 --> 01:19:09.399 to watch it. I'm going to look at it as 1151 01:19:09.479 --> 01:19:14.399 much as I can, And at least when I'm doing 1152 01:19:14.399 --> 01:19:16.960 a show like this, I get to bring it to 1153 01:19:17.000 --> 01:19:20.279 your attention to So that's a double bonus. Seven sixteen 1154 01:19:20.520 --> 01:19:24.439 Dan Carroll for Brian Thomas. I'm fifty five KRC Detalk station. 1155 01:19:24.680 --> 01:19:28.000 This is fifty five KRC, an iHeartRadio station. 1156 01:19:28.319 --> 01:19:36.720 Susan lows King with cross Country More. Fifty five KRC 1157 01:19:36.880 --> 01:19:40.159 Detalk Station seven four nine fifty five hundred the number 1158 01:19:40.159 --> 01:19:42.920 to call if you want to get on board. They're 1159 01:19:42.960 --> 01:19:45.399 just looking at just the news during the break there, 1160 01:19:46.079 --> 01:19:51.079 and they're talking about before weaponizing Russia against Trump, Biden 1161 01:19:51.119 --> 01:19:55.920 and other Democrats reaped lucrative benefits. Well, you don't say, 1162 01:19:56.199 --> 01:20:02.359 while Democrats weaponized invented Russia collusion claims in an attempt 1163 01:20:02.399 --> 01:20:05.199 to sink President Donald Trump's first term. In retrospect, the 1164 01:20:05.239 --> 01:20:08.800 party's leaders have often gone soft on Russia when it 1165 01:20:08.880 --> 01:20:13.439 wanted to reap financial or political benefits for themselves or 1166 01:20:13.520 --> 01:20:18.199 allies from the Obama era Russian reset, the Secretary of 1167 01:20:18.199 --> 01:20:25.800 State Hillary Clinton so Kolkovo investment project to honor Biden's 1168 01:20:25.800 --> 01:20:29.079 business in Moscow, and Joe Biden's waiving the sanctions against 1169 01:20:29.119 --> 01:20:33.359 the Russian pipeline. Key Democrat figures reaped political and financial 1170 01:20:33.359 --> 01:20:39.479 benefits from going soft on Moscow. Newly declassified documents produced 1171 01:20:39.479 --> 01:20:43.439 by the FBI and Department of Justice Crossfire Hurricane investigation 1172 01:20:43.720 --> 01:20:47.520 into allegations that then candidate Trump or members of his 1173 01:20:47.600 --> 01:20:51.800 campaign coordinated with Russia to influence the twenty sixteen election 1174 01:20:52.479 --> 01:20:56.760 wholly discredit the probe. For example, one key informant's account 1175 01:20:56.960 --> 01:21:01.000 was deemed unreliable and official disputed. A key media narrative 1176 01:21:01.039 --> 01:21:06.760 and some key source, Christopher Steele, leaked his infamous dossier 1177 01:21:06.880 --> 01:21:11.359 to the media. Last week, FBI Director Cash Mattel transmitted 1178 01:21:11.359 --> 01:21:16.520 to Congress hundreds of pages declassified documents from that investigation, 1179 01:21:16.640 --> 01:21:22.239 following a declassification executive order from President Trump. Just The 1180 01:21:22.319 --> 01:21:26.800 News made all seven hundred pages from the declassified binder 1181 01:21:26.920 --> 01:21:30.800 available to the public. Despite several years with a focus 1182 01:21:30.800 --> 01:21:33.680 on the allegations from the Democrats in Congress and investigation 1183 01:21:33.760 --> 01:21:37.800 by Special Counsel Robert Mueller did not establish any criminal 1184 01:21:37.840 --> 01:21:42.840 Trump Russian collusion. Special Council John Durham appointed to review 1185 01:21:42.880 --> 01:21:46.960 the probe and ultimately ultimately concluded that neither US law 1186 01:21:47.039 --> 01:21:50.560 enforcement nor the intelligence community community appears to have possessed 1187 01:21:50.560 --> 01:21:54.880 any actual evidence of collusion in their holdings. At the 1188 01:21:54.880 --> 01:22:01.720 commencement of Crossfire Hurricane investigation, after Russia's two invasions of Ukraine, 1189 01:22:01.760 --> 01:22:04.159 first in twenty fourteen then again in twenty twenty two, 1190 01:22:05.159 --> 01:22:08.640 senior Democrat leaders routinely or roundly called out Russia and 1191 01:22:08.680 --> 01:22:14.119 as President Vladimir Putin's aggressive behavior primarily targeted at the 1192 01:22:14.159 --> 01:22:18.600 country smaller neighbor Ukraine. But in years before the Moscow invasion, 1193 01:22:19.239 --> 01:22:24.279 or before Moscow's invasion, Democrats enriched themselves politically and personally 1194 01:22:24.800 --> 01:22:30.159 from Russia oligarchs, oligarchs. I thought Democrats were against oligarchs, 1195 01:22:30.640 --> 01:22:33.479 maybe just oligarchs in America, but the Russian ones, those 1196 01:22:33.520 --> 01:22:42.199 are fine, man. They enriched themselves politically and personally from 1197 01:22:42.239 --> 01:22:46.520 Russian oligarchs and businesses in the region while empowering Putin 1198 01:22:47.560 --> 01:22:52.960 with energy and technology deals. So, I mean, this piece 1199 01:22:53.000 --> 01:22:56.199 goes on and on and on, and it kind of 1200 01:22:56.199 --> 01:23:00.880 outlines a lot of the ways different deals that were 1201 01:23:00.920 --> 01:23:04.159 in place for the pipeline of money to flow back 1202 01:23:04.159 --> 01:23:08.479 to the Democrats. Hunter Biden has talked about in here. 1203 01:23:09.479 --> 01:23:12.199 Hunter Biden and his partner's pursuit of Russia riches began 1204 01:23:12.239 --> 01:23:16.359 as early as twenty ten, when the Reset was entering 1205 01:23:16.399 --> 01:23:20.199 the full swing with payments from a Moscow based machinery 1206 01:23:20.239 --> 01:23:23.520 firm and it's patriarch, and they antestified a few years 1207 01:23:23.600 --> 01:23:26.439 later at a time when Joe Biden's son was actually 1208 01:23:26.439 --> 01:23:30.159 still serving in the US Navy. How about that, So 1209 01:23:30.720 --> 01:23:33.960 this was going on with Russia while Hunter was still 1210 01:23:34.000 --> 01:23:37.760 in the Navy. But yeah, it made this goes on 1211 01:23:39.119 --> 01:23:42.680 all these documents and talking about how the Democrats were 1212 01:23:42.720 --> 01:23:46.880 cashing in, so all this stuff and again that old 1213 01:23:46.920 --> 01:23:50.560 saying holds true. All this stuff that they accused Trump 1214 01:23:50.600 --> 01:23:54.079 of doing, it turns out that they were doing themselves. Jim, 1215 01:23:54.119 --> 01:23:55.680 what's up this morning? How you doing? 1216 01:23:56.720 --> 01:24:03.479 I'm doing for there? You talk about female army rangers competing. Yeah, earlier. 1217 01:24:03.760 --> 01:24:06.479 It's great to hear that they're actually having to meet 1218 01:24:06.479 --> 01:24:10.680 the same standards because Mile Ma Mater in nineteen eighty 1219 01:24:10.720 --> 01:24:14.079 when they let women are at West Point, they low 1220 01:24:14.119 --> 01:24:15.520 with the standers significantly. 1221 01:24:15.760 --> 01:24:18.319 Sure they did bysically. Well, that's one of the that's 1222 01:24:18.319 --> 01:24:20.720 one of the very first things that Pete Hegseeth said. 1223 01:24:21.159 --> 01:24:23.319 He said, Look, if we got we have women in 1224 01:24:23.359 --> 01:24:26.279 the military, there are no longer going to be two 1225 01:24:26.319 --> 01:24:29.079 sets of standards. You can either do the job or 1226 01:24:29.119 --> 01:24:31.279 you can't. And if you can do it, then you 1227 01:24:31.399 --> 01:24:34.199 then God bless you. Then ah, you know, more power 1228 01:24:34.239 --> 01:24:37.279 to you. And if you can't, you can't. And look, 1229 01:24:37.520 --> 01:24:40.840 serving in the military is not a right, it's a privilege. 1230 01:24:41.159 --> 01:24:43.359 And we need to have standards. We need to have 1231 01:24:44.000 --> 01:24:47.159 you know, these these tests in these bars that need 1232 01:24:47.199 --> 01:24:50.720 to be passed and accomplished before someone can move on 1233 01:24:50.800 --> 01:24:54.000 in the military. And you know, excuse making doesn't do 1234 01:24:54.039 --> 01:24:57.159 anyone any favors. When you're on the battlefield and you 1235 01:24:57.199 --> 01:25:00.119 need to know that your partner in combat has your. 1236 01:25:00.039 --> 01:25:03.439 Back, You've got to be able to do the job. Yes, 1237 01:25:03.520 --> 01:25:08.680 unfortunately they couldn't. I mean, just before I left the military, 1238 01:25:08.760 --> 01:25:13.199 we greater exercise to see how well we could make 1239 01:25:13.199 --> 01:25:16.680 a signal with talian thirty female and they couldn't handle 1240 01:25:16.680 --> 01:25:18.359 the job. They couldn't do the physical part of it. 1241 01:25:19.600 --> 01:25:21.680 And so you're putting people in danger. 1242 01:25:21.359 --> 01:25:24.439 Sure you are.

Before I get to the subject that we 1263 01:26:32.680 --> 01:26:34.399 had at hand, I got a couple of questions for 1264 01:26:34.439 --> 01:26:36.680 you and just a couple of things that occurred to 1265 01:26:36.680 --> 01:26:38.720 me over the last couple hours. You know, it was 1266 01:26:39.119 --> 01:26:41.000 what was it? It was? It was like a month, 1267 01:26:41.039 --> 01:26:43.920 almost two months ago you and I were talking about 1268 01:26:44.239 --> 01:26:48.800 the pending release of the Epstein files. And remember we 1269 01:26:48.800 --> 01:26:51.079 we we kind of made plans. You know, when those 1270 01:26:51.079 --> 01:26:53.119 come out, we're gonna we're gonna look at it, We're 1271 01:26:53.159 --> 01:26:55.079 gonna dissect it. We're gonna do a segment on the 1272 01:26:55.159 --> 01:26:57.800 radio and and talk about that and talk about what's 1273 01:26:57.840 --> 01:27:00.239 in it, what's not what's not in it? Uh, how 1274 01:27:00.239 --> 01:27:02.159 those you know, we're going to break those things down. 1275 01:27:02.640 --> 01:27:05.279 And then of course, you know the release was delayed, 1276 01:27:05.319 --> 01:27:08.760 that it never happened, And here we are, and this 1277 01:27:08.800 --> 01:27:11.159 feels like it was a couple of months ago, and 1278 01:27:11.319 --> 01:27:14.319 I've not seen hide her hair of the Epstein files. 1279 01:27:15.000 --> 01:27:18.079 Have you seen any unication at all that those things 1280 01:27:18.079 --> 01:27:19.479 will ever see the light of day. 1281 01:27:20.760 --> 01:27:24.439 Well, here's the thing. They got a truckload of files 1282 01:27:24.560 --> 01:27:29.119 that next day when Pam Bondi gave that deadline, And 1283 01:27:29.760 --> 01:27:34.960 in my experience, when you have that many files, I'd 1284 01:27:35.000 --> 01:27:37.960 be very hard pressed to see how they could have 1285 01:27:38.039 --> 01:27:41.920 gone through them thoroughly and made the appropriate redactions like 1286 01:27:42.119 --> 01:27:45.439 redacting out victims' names and so on, which is very 1287 01:27:45.520 --> 01:27:49.279 routine for any law enforcement to do before releasing. 1288 01:27:48.920 --> 01:27:50.159 Documents to the public. 1289 01:27:51.199 --> 01:27:54.159 Unless they were doing it twenty four to seven around 1290 01:27:54.159 --> 01:27:56.319 the clock, and that's the only thing they're working on. 1291 01:27:57.079 --> 01:27:58.920 I really don't think they would have had it done 1292 01:27:58.920 --> 01:27:59.359 by now. 1293 01:27:59.760 --> 01:28:02.279 Yeah, I was under the impression one thing, that some 1294 01:28:02.319 --> 01:28:07.119 of that had already taken place, though her being I 1295 01:28:07.159 --> 01:28:10.680 remember her being on TV with Jesse Waters talking about, Yeah, 1296 01:28:10.720 --> 01:28:12.840 you know, those files are coming out tomorrow and we're 1297 01:28:12.880 --> 01:28:15.880 doing the final reactions and making sure that we don't 1298 01:28:16.159 --> 01:28:19.600 compromise any information or give away people's names. It shouldn't 1299 01:28:19.640 --> 01:28:22.560 be given away. I thought they had already done all 1300 01:28:22.600 --> 01:28:23.079 that stuff. 1301 01:28:24.279 --> 01:28:27.840 I don't think so. And the thing is Pam BONDI, 1302 01:28:28.000 --> 01:28:31.720 she's salivating to release this stuff. You know, Trump is too, 1303 01:28:31.920 --> 01:28:34.920 That's what I'm thinking. And I don't think they gain 1304 01:28:35.000 --> 01:28:38.079 anything by holding stuff back if that stuff's been done, 1305 01:28:38.560 --> 01:28:41.479 because I think they're absolutely chomping at the bit to 1306 01:28:41.600 --> 01:28:42.520 release this stuff. 1307 01:28:42.520 --> 01:28:45.159 That's just my thought. All right, Well, then our plans 1308 01:28:45.159 --> 01:28:47.039 are still in place, and when those things come out, 1309 01:28:47.079 --> 01:28:48.960 we'll we'll we'll have you on and we'll break it 1310 01:28:49.000 --> 01:28:51.960 down and we'll see what's what on the Epstein file. 1311 01:28:52.039 --> 01:28:54.560 So that so keep that, keep that in your calendar, 1312 01:28:54.600 --> 01:28:58.920 all right, I will do Dan, all right. The other 1313 01:28:59.000 --> 01:29:03.680 thing is some information started coming out yesterday about this 1314 01:29:04.000 --> 01:29:06.880 fifteen year old that's accused of killing this guy on 1315 01:29:06.960 --> 01:29:10.119 Short Vine a couple of days ago. And the video 1316 01:29:10.199 --> 01:29:13.680 came out, yes the video was released yesterday of how 1317 01:29:13.760 --> 01:29:17.039 this happened. And you see this guy standing in front 1318 01:29:17.039 --> 01:29:19.800 of that liquor store on Short Vine. He's got his 1319 01:29:19.840 --> 01:29:22.039 nose in his cell phone, he's minding his own business. 1320 01:29:22.079 --> 01:29:24.359 This kid walks up to him, pulls out a gun 1321 01:29:24.399 --> 01:29:28.439 and sticks it in his midsection. And information started coming 1322 01:29:28.479 --> 01:29:31.880 out leaked yesterday that this guy has been in the 1323 01:29:32.000 --> 01:29:36.680 juvenile system before various judges, I guess in Hamilton County 1324 01:29:36.760 --> 01:29:41.520 Juvenile Court with twenty one felonies. And maybe it's just me, 1325 01:29:41.680 --> 01:29:44.399 but twenty one when you're at the age of fifteen, 1326 01:29:44.640 --> 01:29:47.640 sounds like a lot. And yet this kid was still 1327 01:29:48.039 --> 01:29:49.680 It seems to me like this is a kid who 1328 01:29:50.079 --> 01:29:52.720 should not have been on the street, should not have 1329 01:29:52.760 --> 01:29:57.039 had any access to a gun. Is this and I 1330 01:29:57.039 --> 01:29:59.199 mean in a general sense, if you have a kid 1331 01:29:59.199 --> 01:30:03.199 that has is fifteen years old, has that many felonies, 1332 01:30:03.239 --> 01:30:05.479 that much contact with the court, how is this kid 1333 01:30:05.479 --> 01:30:06.520 able to be out on the street. 1334 01:30:09.560 --> 01:30:12.880 That's a good question. It depends on what those twenty 1335 01:30:12.920 --> 01:30:16.880 one felonies were. And you see when they count prior felonies, 1336 01:30:17.359 --> 01:30:19.840 they what they do is they take the total. They 1337 01:30:19.880 --> 01:30:23.079 don't take look back and say, hey, this could be 1338 01:30:23.119 --> 01:30:25.720 from like two or three cases. 1339 01:30:26.640 --> 01:30:32.000 But yeah, apparently one of them was the illegal discharge 1340 01:30:32.000 --> 01:30:35.439 of a weapon. There was a couple of them I 1341 01:30:35.439 --> 01:30:37.159 think that involved possession of a gun. 1342 01:30:38.560 --> 01:30:43.279 And so that dischargeable weapon is a felony that in 1343 01:30:43.399 --> 01:30:46.600 adult court typically carries prison time and it's a strict 1344 01:30:46.640 --> 01:30:50.920 liability offense, which means you can't argue self defense with 1345 01:30:51.000 --> 01:30:56.920 that one. So yeah, I definitely have questions. But the 1346 01:30:57.000 --> 01:30:59.640 bigger thing is where the hell are his kids parents? 1347 01:31:00.119 --> 01:31:06.000 Yeah? Absolutely? And are we just unequipped in the juvenile 1348 01:31:06.000 --> 01:31:08.680 system to deal with this in any in any meaningful way? 1349 01:31:10.640 --> 01:31:11.560 I don't know. 1350 01:31:11.640 --> 01:31:14.880 I mean, it's really a case by case and i'd 1351 01:31:14.880 --> 01:31:20.039 say because I've had juvenile clients where you know, I 1352 01:31:20.079 --> 01:31:23.279 definitely did not question the outcome. But you know, like 1353 01:31:23.319 --> 01:31:24.760 I said, every case is different. 1354 01:31:25.039 --> 01:31:27.800 Yeah, all right, Well, James, stay right there. I want 1355 01:31:27.840 --> 01:31:30.760 to talk about some of the Title nine stuff that 1356 01:31:30.760 --> 01:31:33.199 that is happening, and it is it is amazing to 1357 01:31:33.239 --> 01:31:37.640 me that some of these different universities and these different 1358 01:31:37.720 --> 01:31:41.279 entities think that they can stand their ground against the 1359 01:31:41.279 --> 01:31:44.119 federal government on this. And we'll get your thoughts on that, 1360 01:31:44.199 --> 01:31:45.920 but we got to get to a quick break here, 1361 01:31:45.920 --> 01:31:48.880 So James Bogan stand by and we'll continue on with 1362 01:31:48.960 --> 01:31:51.800 him on the other side on fifty five KRC, the 1363 01:31:51.920 --> 01:31:52.439 talk station. 1364 01:31:52.680 --> 01:31:56.000 This is fifty five KRC and iHeartRadio station. 1365 01:31:56.439 --> 01:32:06.640 Get ready for spring and have your roof guts fifty 1366 01:32:06.640 --> 01:32:09.800 five krc DE Talk station Dan Carroll for Bryan Thomas. 1367 01:32:09.840 --> 01:32:14.000 We are talking with local attorney James Bogan, and James, 1368 01:32:14.199 --> 01:32:16.359 you know, I'm looking at some of the headlines here 1369 01:32:16.840 --> 01:32:21.239 and you've got the University of Pennsylvania. Trump is suspending 1370 01:32:21.239 --> 01:32:23.920 one hundred and seventy five million dollars in federal funding 1371 01:32:24.279 --> 01:32:27.880 because they continue to allow male athletes to compete in 1372 01:32:27.880 --> 01:32:33.319 women's sports. The Secretary of Education is telling these these 1373 01:32:33.319 --> 01:32:38.479 different universities the NCAA that their policies need to get 1374 01:32:38.520 --> 01:32:42.199 in line with what the Trump administration is saying about this. 1375 01:32:42.600 --> 01:32:45.039 You've got main schools who are saying they are not 1376 01:32:45.119 --> 01:32:50.000 going to not going to change their transgender policies as 1377 01:32:50.039 --> 01:32:54.960 it relates to sports. What kind of ground do these 1378 01:32:54.960 --> 01:32:57.880 places have to stand on in order to stand in 1379 01:32:57.920 --> 01:33:01.840 defiance of what's coming out of the White House. They 1380 01:33:01.840 --> 01:33:03.319 have absolutely zero ground. 1381 01:33:03.319 --> 01:33:05.439 And you just look at the text the Title nine, 1382 01:33:05.439 --> 01:33:09.359 which this executive order is based on. No one shall 1383 01:33:09.399 --> 01:33:13.239 be excluded from participation in sports or deny the benefit 1384 01:33:13.279 --> 01:33:18.199 of sports school sports based on gender. And when you 1385 01:33:18.319 --> 01:33:23.079 allow biological males to compete in girls' sports, you're taking 1386 01:33:23.119 --> 01:33:28.319 away these opportunities to participate and have gained the benefits 1387 01:33:28.359 --> 01:33:34.239 from these sports because when you have biological males, even 1388 01:33:34.319 --> 01:33:37.079 if they take hormones, they're still. 1389 01:33:38.600 --> 01:33:39.359 During puberty. 1390 01:33:39.399 --> 01:33:43.279 They get bigger muscles, bigger frame, bigger lung capacity, stronger ligament, 1391 01:33:43.359 --> 01:33:48.079 stronger tendons, more muscle density, and those advantages do not 1392 01:33:48.239 --> 01:33:53.560 get mitigated by hormone treatment. And feelings certainly don't mitigate 1393 01:33:54.479 --> 01:33:59.840 these physical advantages, and you'll see them displacing girls. I mean, 1394 01:34:00.079 --> 01:34:05.479 we talked about this. Leah Thomas, for example, when as 1395 01:34:05.560 --> 01:34:08.960 Will Thomas was the number four hundred and sixty two 1396 01:34:09.039 --> 01:34:13.119 among college men in the two hundred yard freestyle, went 1397 01:34:13.159 --> 01:34:17.680 from that to number one among college women. Now men's 1398 01:34:17.680 --> 01:34:20.840 and women's times performances is about a ten to twelve 1399 01:34:20.920 --> 01:34:25.479 percent different. Thomas's time only dropped by two point sixty 1400 01:34:25.520 --> 01:34:29.920 six percent or regressed by two point six six percent 1401 01:34:30.239 --> 01:34:34.399 from the hormones and splockers and so on. It's and 1402 01:34:34.680 --> 01:34:39.119 when women girls, when they take steroids, they don't become 1403 01:34:39.159 --> 01:34:42.199 as good as men. I mean, you saw that we've 1404 01:34:42.239 --> 01:34:45.640 talked about this. There's that Yale swimmer who she was 1405 01:34:45.680 --> 01:34:48.600 one of the top women in the country actually compete 1406 01:34:48.600 --> 01:34:53.000 against Leah Thomas the next year swam for Yale as 1407 01:34:53.479 --> 01:34:56.880 a guy and wasn't even competitive. 1408 01:34:58.239 --> 01:35:00.439 Yeah, and that's the way it happens then. And I 1409 01:35:00.439 --> 01:35:03.399 love the way you address that argument, because you're talking 1410 01:35:03.439 --> 01:35:06.880 about Title nine, and Title nine really looks after the 1411 01:35:07.000 --> 01:35:09.720 rights of women. And we've gone so far down the 1412 01:35:09.800 --> 01:35:13.520 road on this argument that it always starts with the 1413 01:35:13.640 --> 01:35:18.319 rights of those who, you know, these transgender individuals that 1414 01:35:18.479 --> 01:35:21.800 somehow their rights are being in fringe. And what gets 1415 01:35:21.840 --> 01:35:24.840 lost in that argument are the rights of those women 1416 01:35:25.319 --> 01:35:29.600 to compete on a fair and level playing field. You know, 1417 01:35:29.680 --> 01:35:32.800 these women who have sacrificed mightily, who have given up 1418 01:35:32.840 --> 01:35:36.399 all sorts of things, and then you know, when it's 1419 01:35:36.439 --> 01:35:38.520 time for them, you know, for the rubber to hit 1420 01:35:38.520 --> 01:35:42.039 the road, well, then they have to face another unfair 1421 01:35:42.159 --> 01:35:45.399 challenge in the form of some dude that's been through 1422 01:35:45.439 --> 01:35:48.159 puberty and now wants to they have long hair and 1423 01:35:48.199 --> 01:35:53.039 wear dresses and call themself a woman. Yeah. 1424 01:35:53.399 --> 01:35:55.800 I mean, if I would have compete as a woman, 1425 01:35:55.880 --> 01:35:58.640 I would have been a superstar when. 1426 01:36:00.279 --> 01:36:02.720 My son would have been the same way. He had 1427 01:36:02.760 --> 01:36:04.960 better times than Katie Ladecki, for God's sake. 1428 01:36:08.000 --> 01:36:11.680 Yeah, And you know what everyone though the proponents of 1429 01:36:11.720 --> 01:36:15.560 this crap, they just focus on feelings, feelings, feelings. And 1430 01:36:15.600 --> 01:36:18.600 these are the same people who said trust the science during. 1431 01:36:18.399 --> 01:36:23.399 COVID, Yeah, trust the science. That the science at least 1432 01:36:23.399 --> 01:36:25.920 went it as long as it fits their narrative. So 1433 01:36:26.079 --> 01:36:27.840 it was so, where do you see this going? I mean, 1434 01:36:28.239 --> 01:36:31.319 you know, the Trump administration so far is able to 1435 01:36:32.000 --> 01:36:36.000 withhold funds, and we've had so many federal judges across 1436 01:36:36.000 --> 01:36:39.920 the country who feel have been feeling so free to 1437 01:36:40.000 --> 01:36:43.319 wade into any issue that comes out of the White House. 1438 01:36:43.560 --> 01:36:46.159 Are we going to be subject to more federal rulings 1439 01:36:46.199 --> 01:36:50.119 and federal court judges trying to direct the Trump administration 1440 01:36:50.520 --> 01:36:51.920 to do this, that and the other thing. 1441 01:36:53.279 --> 01:36:54.520 That's an interesting question. 1442 01:36:54.600 --> 01:36:57.720 We haven't seen anything brought yet, but unfortunately, with these 1443 01:36:58.000 --> 01:37:01.800 activist judges out there, I wouldn't be surprised. 1444 01:37:01.960 --> 01:37:04.479 But you look at this way. 1445 01:37:04.640 --> 01:37:08.239 The recent New York Times polls showed that seventy nine 1446 01:37:08.279 --> 01:37:13.199 percent of people are opposed to this crap, And you 1447 01:37:13.239 --> 01:37:16.840 look at this eventually reaches the Supreme Court. I think 1448 01:37:18.079 --> 01:37:20.600 once it reaches the Supreme Court, which is more matter 1449 01:37:20.840 --> 01:37:24.159 when than if there are some penning cases, I think 1450 01:37:24.399 --> 01:37:27.000 the Court's gonna end up ruling on the right. 1451 01:37:26.840 --> 01:37:30.000 Side of this. Yeah, James, before we let you go, 1452 01:37:30.279 --> 01:37:34.399 you brought to my attention yesterday a situation that's developing 1453 01:37:34.479 --> 01:37:37.479 within the Cincinnati Police Department, and it has to do 1454 01:37:37.560 --> 01:37:41.399 with a retired officer who is trying to get a 1455 01:37:41.479 --> 01:37:46.520 replacement badge after retiring from the force. And there seems 1456 01:37:46.560 --> 01:37:48.560 to be some so I don't know if it's a 1457 01:37:48.560 --> 01:37:53.199 misunderstanding or some sort of complication as to this officer 1458 01:37:53.279 --> 01:37:57.079 getting a replacement badge, And you know, the way the 1459 01:37:57.199 --> 01:38:00.159 argument was laid out for me, this just sounds to 1460 01:38:00.199 --> 01:38:03.600 me like something that doesn't really need to get to 1461 01:38:03.640 --> 01:38:06.479 the level that this thing is getting to already. 1462 01:38:07.920 --> 01:38:12.720 Yeah, retired police officer Rachel Baldwin, I've been in chatting 1463 01:38:12.760 --> 01:38:15.439 with her about this too. She retired in good standing. 1464 01:38:15.560 --> 01:38:20.199 She lost her retirement badge. Many retired officers request the 1465 01:38:20.279 --> 01:38:23.359 second retirement badge. One goes in their wallet, one goes 1466 01:38:23.399 --> 01:38:28.000 on display. It's not nefarious to lose a retirement badge. 1467 01:38:28.000 --> 01:38:31.560 It says retirement and big letters across the top. It's 1468 01:38:31.600 --> 01:38:35.319 not like anyone can use it. And people I've talked 1469 01:38:35.359 --> 01:38:38.920 to with CPD say it's not unpreceded for a retired 1470 01:38:38.960 --> 01:38:42.960 officer to get a replacement retirement badge either now, Baldwin, 1471 01:38:43.439 --> 01:38:45.960 she lost her badge. She went to police supply to 1472 01:38:46.000 --> 01:38:49.399 inquire about the process, you know, to get this replacement 1473 01:38:49.439 --> 01:38:52.880 badge that she earned through thirty years of service. And 1474 01:38:52.920 --> 01:38:56.279 it's something they pay out a pocket for too. And 1475 01:38:56.960 --> 01:38:59.119 she was told she had to make a report and 1476 01:38:59.359 --> 01:39:02.000 write a letter her and it had to go to 1477 01:39:02.039 --> 01:39:05.119 the chief, who's the one person who approves and disapproves 1478 01:39:05.199 --> 01:39:10.239 these for some strange reason now, and the chief said 1479 01:39:10.359 --> 01:39:13.680 no and doubled down on it when FOP President Ken 1480 01:39:13.760 --> 01:39:17.279 Kober intervened, and she said, one retirement badge to each 1481 01:39:17.319 --> 01:39:20.239 officer period. To hell with bad things happening like you're 1482 01:39:20.239 --> 01:39:24.560 getting stolen. And the thing is, she retired in good standing, 1483 01:39:24.760 --> 01:39:27.840 filed the appropriate report when she lost her badge and 1484 01:39:27.920 --> 01:39:31.079 jumped her all the hoops, and this is what she gets. 1485 01:39:31.359 --> 01:39:35.439 And Cober he confirmed me the under CPD policy, this 1486 01:39:35.640 --> 01:39:41.479 is the chief's prerogative. And here's the funny part. Another 1487 01:39:41.720 --> 01:39:44.279 retired CPD officer, I'm not going to bring his name 1488 01:39:44.319 --> 01:39:47.479 into this, he started posting about this on Facebook to 1489 01:39:47.520 --> 01:39:52.199 support Baldwin. Guess what CPD's public information officer decides to 1490 01:39:52.239 --> 01:39:55.439 call him and advise him to stop discussing on social media. 1491 01:39:56.319 --> 01:39:59.800 And this officer, he's the kind of guy who doesn't 1492 01:39:59.800 --> 01:40:04.479 take highly to bullying. But memo to CPD administrators, there's 1493 01:40:04.479 --> 01:40:07.239 a little thing called the First Amendment and any first 1494 01:40:07.279 --> 01:40:10.600 year laws and can tell you government agencies are bound 1495 01:40:10.680 --> 01:40:14.319 by it. Hello, And what's funny is apparently when this 1496 01:40:14.399 --> 01:40:18.479 part blew up, my understanding is this public relations officer 1497 01:40:19.039 --> 01:40:23.319 may have claimed that she called this retired officer who 1498 01:40:23.359 --> 01:40:25.239 was speaking up not to try to get them to 1499 01:40:25.239 --> 01:40:28.119 stop posting that online, but to try to help I 1500 01:40:28.199 --> 01:40:34.680 don't obviously I'd have more questions about that conversation. But 1501 01:40:35.960 --> 01:40:39.720 here's the thing. If you want to be an effective leader, 1502 01:40:39.760 --> 01:40:42.880 you need to make your officers feel appreciated. You need 1503 01:40:42.920 --> 01:40:46.199 to make your retirees feel appreciated, instead of having your 1504 01:40:46.199 --> 01:40:49.319 current officers feel that you see them as disposable and 1505 01:40:49.359 --> 01:40:52.359 that when they retire they'll be thrown out like yesterday's garbage. 1506 01:40:52.840 --> 01:40:56.119 Not announce the respect. I mean, is that the kind 1507 01:40:56.159 --> 01:40:58.279 of leadership message you want to send. 1508 01:40:59.279 --> 01:41:02.680 I don't seems to me like the whole thing is 1509 01:41:02.439 --> 01:41:05.880 is really an unforced there, it's it's it's a retirement badge, 1510 01:41:06.560 --> 01:41:08.439 and and the and the pay for it out of 1511 01:41:08.479 --> 01:41:12.279 your own pocket, do the paperwork whatever procedures there and 1512 01:41:12.359 --> 01:41:15.319 just let let it go and move on. I don't know. 1513 01:41:15.560 --> 01:41:18.720 I just hope this thing gets resolved and gets resolved 1514 01:41:18.800 --> 01:41:21.279 quickly before it becomes some sort of an issue. But 1515 01:41:21.359 --> 01:41:23.640 with that, James, we will let you go. Always appreciate 1516 01:41:23.680 --> 01:41:26.000 the time as always, and we will talk to you 1517 01:41:26.039 --> 01:41:27.000 again before too long. 1518 01:41:28.359 --> 01:41:30.159 Thank you very much, Dan, always apprivileged. 1519 01:41:30.159 --> 01:41:33.199 All right, James Bogan on fifty five k r CV Talkstation, 1520 01:41:33.520 --> 01:41:43.199 fifty five KRC dot com.

Always always good talking 1523 01:41:48.399 --> 01:41:52.359 to him, getting his insight on on things. And the 1524 01:41:52.439 --> 01:41:55.319 video is going to build five hundred, five hundred billion 1525 01:41:55.359 --> 01:42:00.279 dollar Chip supercomputers in Texas. That is a sound like 1526 01:42:00.479 --> 01:42:03.359 a really big deal. Have you seen the picture of 1527 01:42:03.399 --> 01:42:09.279 this guy that set fire to Josh Shapiro's house. The 1528 01:42:09.319 --> 01:42:14.520 governor of Pennsylvania, thirty eight year old Cody Balmer Harrisburg 1529 01:42:14.680 --> 01:42:19.840 arrested charge with multiple felonies, including attempted homicide terrorism aggravated 1530 01:42:19.880 --> 01:42:25.039 at Arson Burglary. This was the early morning attack on 1531 01:42:25.159 --> 01:42:29.399 the governor's residence yesterday morning, about one three in the morning. 1532 01:42:31.239 --> 01:42:35.159 Security footage obtained by law enforcement shows this guy breaking 1533 01:42:35.239 --> 01:42:39.199 in to the piano room on the south side, igniting 1534 01:42:39.239 --> 01:42:45.359 it with molotov cocktails. Are what they're saying. Molotov cocktails. 1535 01:42:45.800 --> 01:42:49.720 And trust me, if this guy had any connection to 1536 01:42:49.840 --> 01:42:54.000 Trump whatsoever, his name and his picture would be all 1537 01:42:54.039 --> 01:42:55.720 over the news today. Of course, I can't why. I 1538 01:42:55.760 --> 01:42:57.319 don't know if it is right now. I can't watch 1539 01:42:57.319 --> 01:43:00.199 the news in here. If we have one. Let me 1540 01:43:00.279 --> 01:43:03.840 see one, two, three, four, five big TVs in here. 1541 01:43:04.439 --> 01:43:09.359 Not one of them is connected. So I'm I'm cut off. 1542 01:43:09.479 --> 01:43:12.239 Sean mcmahonm cut off from the outside world. I love 1543 01:43:12.279 --> 01:43:15.760 the technology here totally. I'm on an island all to 1544 01:43:15.800 --> 01:43:18.399 myself here. All I have. My only connection to the 1545 01:43:18.399 --> 01:43:21.520 outside world is this microphone and this computer in front 1546 01:43:21.520 --> 01:43:24.560 of me. But this dude I heard this morning, he's 1547 01:43:24.560 --> 01:43:29.880 throwing molotov cocktails, a favorite tool of the left, and 1548 01:43:30.560 --> 01:43:33.680 I really could have wound up killing people, but thank 1549 01:43:33.720 --> 01:43:36.039 god he didn't. But look at a picture of this dude. 1550 01:43:36.880 --> 01:43:42.560 I mean he looks like he looks like something out 1551 01:43:42.560 --> 01:43:46.199 of a str very one of those goth kind of 1552 01:43:46.239 --> 01:43:50.520 horror movies.

I'm sure you're 1580 01:45:28.560 --> 01:45:31.960 you're you're feeling chipper ready to write that giant check 1581 01:45:32.000 --> 01:45:32.880 to the federal. 1582 01:45:32.600 --> 01:45:34.880 Government, aren't we? 1583 01:45:34.920 --> 01:45:35.479 All right? 1584 01:45:35.520 --> 01:45:36.520 It's such a merit. 1585 01:45:38.920 --> 01:45:41.279 Do you think we should have that the tax day 1586 01:45:41.319 --> 01:45:45.479 should also be election day? People talk about that every 1587 01:45:45.520 --> 01:45:49.039 single year, that you're always reminded of how much money 1588 01:45:49.039 --> 01:45:51.640 you're sending to the government on this day every year. 1589 01:45:55.760 --> 01:46:02.880 I think, yeah, Sean McMahon, let's let's try and re 1590 01:46:03.079 --> 01:46:06.000 establish contact with her, because that was that was not good. 1591 01:46:06.359 --> 01:46:08.159 So Sean McMahon is going to make a phone call 1592 01:46:08.560 --> 01:46:10.960 and and and get back with Cheryl. Hopefully we'll get 1593 01:46:11.079 --> 01:46:14.560 we'll get a better line of better contact because that 1594 01:46:14.560 --> 01:46:16.960 that was not good. That was not good at all. 1595 01:46:17.079 --> 01:46:19.640 But as I mentioned, she is the online opinion editor 1596 01:46:19.960 --> 01:46:24.720 at the Washington Times. She's a Christian, a writer, and 1597 01:46:25.199 --> 01:46:27.800 just a fantastic person to talk to. And I think 1598 01:46:28.039 --> 01:46:29.960 let's see if we got a better connection this time. 1599 01:46:30.279 --> 01:46:33.319 And Cheryl Chumley, there you are, and we were talking 1600 01:46:33.319 --> 01:46:35.960 about tax Day and yeah, and I always find it 1601 01:46:36.000 --> 01:46:38.439 interesting this time of year. There's always those who suggest 1602 01:46:38.840 --> 01:46:42.479 that election day should always be on on this day, 1603 01:46:42.520 --> 01:46:45.920 on the fifteenth, so we're reminded of you know, people 1604 01:46:45.960 --> 01:46:48.319 that were electing and how much money we're send into 1605 01:46:48.319 --> 01:46:49.439 the government at the same time. 1606 01:46:50.720 --> 01:46:52.840 Well, that certainly is one way to go about it. 1607 01:46:52.960 --> 01:46:55.119 I actually think we should have a day of national 1608 01:46:55.199 --> 01:46:57.960 mourning where we're all allowed to take a day off 1609 01:46:58.039 --> 01:47:01.199 from mark and just sort of lick our own and reflect. 1610 01:47:02.920 --> 01:47:05.159 Well, if college kids can take the day off because 1611 01:47:05.399 --> 01:47:07.760 they don't like the way an election goes, certainly we 1612 01:47:07.840 --> 01:47:09.840 can take the day off and you know more and 1613 01:47:09.920 --> 01:47:13.039 all the money that we've parted with that goes to 1614 01:47:13.079 --> 01:47:15.479 the federal government. Let me get your opinion. I want 1615 01:47:15.479 --> 01:47:19.199 to get your opinion on this. The whole saga going 1616 01:47:19.239 --> 01:47:22.279 on over the tariffs and China and all the rest 1617 01:47:22.279 --> 01:47:24.479 of it, and not really all the ins and outs 1618 01:47:24.479 --> 01:47:27.119 of the tariffs. But I think one of the things 1619 01:47:27.159 --> 01:47:30.840 I find interesting about this is that there is such 1620 01:47:30.920 --> 01:47:34.840 a difference of opinion, especially not just between the right 1621 01:47:34.880 --> 01:47:37.359 and the left on this, but those who are on 1622 01:47:37.399 --> 01:47:40.239 the right those There are so many people who support 1623 01:47:40.279 --> 01:47:44.640 Trump that have come out with honest disagreements about his 1624 01:47:44.720 --> 01:47:48.399 approach to tariffs, the way he's rolling this out, whether 1625 01:47:48.520 --> 01:47:52.399 or not it's going to be successful. The opinions on 1626 01:47:52.439 --> 01:47:56.159 this really run the entire spectrum, and I think that 1627 01:47:56.680 --> 01:48:00.920 is a testament to at least the attempt honest debate 1628 01:48:01.399 --> 01:48:03.479 that those of us on the right one a half. 1629 01:48:03.960 --> 01:48:07.800 And it's to my way of thinking, it's refreshing in 1630 01:48:07.840 --> 01:48:10.560 a way, because when it comes to the left, no 1631 01:48:10.640 --> 01:48:13.359 matter what it is, we constantly see them circle the 1632 01:48:13.399 --> 01:48:19.880 wagons and protect and recite the exact same narrative. But 1633 01:48:19.960 --> 01:48:22.199 at least, you know, those of us on the right 1634 01:48:22.600 --> 01:48:27.840 can honestly and openly state our disagreements with a particular policy, 1635 01:48:28.319 --> 01:48:30.399 and and then you know, at the end of the day, 1636 01:48:31.239 --> 01:48:34.840 move on and try and do it with you with 1637 01:48:34.840 --> 01:48:37.279 with the ultimate goal being what's best for the country. 1638 01:48:38.600 --> 01:48:43.319 Yeah, it's honest debate based by each side, right, And 1639 01:48:43.760 --> 01:48:47.880 I agree with you wholeheartedly that within the Republican Party, 1640 01:48:47.960 --> 01:48:51.640 among the conservative community right now, there are very different 1641 01:48:51.640 --> 01:48:55.800 opinions with what Trump is doing with the tariffs. But 1642 01:48:56.159 --> 01:48:59.560 I am personally one hundred percent in favor of what 1643 01:48:59.680 --> 01:49:04.520 he's doing because I'm not looking at my from k right, 1644 01:49:04.600 --> 01:49:06.239 I'm not looking at what's going on. 1645 01:49:06.159 --> 01:49:06.840 In Wall Street. 1646 01:49:07.319 --> 01:49:11.520 I'm looking down the line the future of America, both 1647 01:49:11.640 --> 01:49:16.199 national security and economic independence, and we need to bring 1648 01:49:16.279 --> 01:49:22.560 back our manufacturing, particularly in certain key areas of the economies, 1649 01:49:22.600 --> 01:49:26.119 back to America. And Donald Trump is really taking a 1650 01:49:26.159 --> 01:49:30.159 courageous stand here by being a president who reco and 1651 01:49:30.319 --> 01:49:34.960 is pushing forward for the internal disputes in his own party. 1652 01:49:35.000 --> 01:49:38.239 Even so, it's really a long term strategy that's going 1653 01:49:38.279 --> 01:49:40.720 to benefit America for decades. 1654 01:49:41.399 --> 01:49:44.439 Yeah. The national media was trying to roll out a 1655 01:49:44.479 --> 01:49:47.479 new narrative over the last few days, and I don't 1656 01:49:47.479 --> 01:49:49.920 know how much traction this one is going to get, 1657 01:49:50.079 --> 01:49:53.039 but they were trying to make the case that if 1658 01:49:53.079 --> 01:49:58.119 Donald Trump brings back all this manufacturing into the United States, 1659 01:49:58.399 --> 01:50:02.239 and Jonathan carl was essentially he used the term, are 1660 01:50:02.279 --> 01:50:05.239 we going to become a nation of cobblers because you 1661 01:50:05.239 --> 01:50:07.920 know these factories, you know, all they do is make 1662 01:50:08.199 --> 01:50:11.479 is make cell phones, and they make Nike shoes, and 1663 01:50:11.800 --> 01:50:14.319 as if you know, these are the kind of jobs 1664 01:50:14.560 --> 01:50:19.000 that are beneath Americans and really don't you know, equate 1665 01:50:19.039 --> 01:50:22.239 to their definition of the dignity of work, and that 1666 01:50:22.319 --> 01:50:26.760 Donald Trump wants to belittle American people by having, you know, 1667 01:50:27.000 --> 01:50:31.159 these types of factory jobs available for the American people. 1668 01:50:31.199 --> 01:50:32.880 I don't know if they're going to get much traction 1669 01:50:33.000 --> 01:50:36.279 on that, on that narrative, but they certainly we were 1670 01:50:36.279 --> 01:50:38.000 trying that out over the last couple of days. 1671 01:50:39.239 --> 01:50:42.680 It's a desperate play, right to Dingish administration. You know, 1672 01:50:42.720 --> 01:50:45.239 when you said that about a nation of cobblers, the first, 1673 01:50:45.520 --> 01:50:47.840 the first thing that's sprung to my mind was so what. 1674 01:50:50.720 --> 01:50:51.640 So what I mean? 1675 01:50:52.560 --> 01:50:57.640 Work is work really and if you are an American. 1676 01:50:57.800 --> 01:51:01.239 With impact in your mind, you don't mind putting in 1677 01:51:01.279 --> 01:51:05.439 the time in all kinds of jobs. When I'm on 1678 01:51:05.760 --> 01:51:09.520 my growing year, look at the jobs I held. I've 1679 01:51:09.560 --> 01:51:14.239 worked in factories on assembly lines, I've worked in dry cleaners. 1680 01:51:14.279 --> 01:51:17.279 I've worked some of the craft jobs out there. But 1681 01:51:17.359 --> 01:51:20.640 that's part of being an American and learning the value 1682 01:51:20.680 --> 01:51:24.000 of hard work and then when you do that, you 1683 01:51:24.079 --> 01:51:25.760 realize your success. 1684 01:51:25.359 --> 01:51:26.279 And it means more. 1685 01:51:26.479 --> 01:51:30.760 Right, we're raising a generation of youth in America to 1686 01:51:30.960 --> 01:51:33.520 look at work is if it's something dirty, is if 1687 01:51:33.520 --> 01:51:36.159 it's something to be avoided. But that's not how it's 1688 01:51:36.199 --> 01:51:39.000 supposed to be as part of the human experience, Right, 1689 01:51:39.079 --> 01:51:43.199 You're supposed to work hard, and then when you achieve success, 1690 01:51:43.359 --> 01:51:48.359 it means something. So bringing back manufacturing to America, first off, 1691 01:51:48.399 --> 01:51:51.039 it's good for the country, but those are decent, high 1692 01:51:51.119 --> 01:51:55.760 paying jobs. And with the also comes the sort of 1693 01:51:55.960 --> 01:51:59.439 skilled craftsmanship that we used to have in America. 1694 01:51:59.520 --> 01:52:01.279 Instead of cookie. 1695 01:52:01.000 --> 01:52:06.800 Cutter, low paying wage you know, people who construction, people 1696 01:52:06.840 --> 01:52:09.760 who throw stuff up. We have people who actually look 1697 01:52:09.800 --> 01:52:13.479 at those trades with value and they develop a craftsmanship 1698 01:52:13.520 --> 01:52:13.880 with it. 1699 01:52:13.920 --> 01:52:15.520 That's all good for America. 1700 01:52:15.680 --> 01:52:19.239 Yeah, it's all good. And when you look at it, 1701 01:52:19.279 --> 01:52:22.359 there's so there's so many moving parts on this, and 1702 01:52:22.720 --> 01:52:25.399 I think of a juggler, you know, And I've seen 1703 01:52:25.439 --> 01:52:28.319 these jugglers at circuses and they've got you know, three 1704 01:52:28.399 --> 01:52:31.199 balls and then ten balls and then fifteen balls, all 1705 01:52:31.239 --> 01:52:33.199 one at the same time. And when I look at 1706 01:52:33.199 --> 01:52:36.479 this situation. I sort of see that that that's the 1707 01:52:36.560 --> 01:52:39.520 situation right now. Trump hasn't even been in office three 1708 01:52:39.560 --> 01:52:43.159 months yet, and you've got all these moving parts that 1709 01:52:43.199 --> 01:52:45.479 are going on, and Trump has set all these different 1710 01:52:45.479 --> 01:52:48.600 things in motion, and things look like they're going one 1711 01:52:48.680 --> 01:52:51.800 hundred different directions. But yet when you listen to the 1712 01:52:51.880 --> 01:52:55.520 national media, they are of the opinion that none of 1713 01:52:55.520 --> 01:52:58.279 this is working because we don't have any results yet. 1714 01:52:58.760 --> 01:53:02.119 And when you talk about a giant ship that needs 1715 01:53:02.119 --> 01:53:04.399 to be turned around, you don't get a more giant 1716 01:53:04.399 --> 01:53:07.279 ship than the United States economy. And turning that around 1717 01:53:07.399 --> 01:53:09.840 is going to take, I would suggest a lot, a 1718 01:53:09.840 --> 01:53:14.159 lot longer than three months. And it is beyond ridiculous 1719 01:53:14.479 --> 01:53:18.000 to sit there and try to convince people that we 1720 01:53:18.119 --> 01:53:22.399 should be seeing bottom line results in such a short 1721 01:53:22.439 --> 01:53:23.079 span of time. 1722 01:53:24.319 --> 01:53:29.520 Yeah, Tromp has the brilliant strategy, right, is working as 1723 01:53:29.560 --> 01:53:33.319 the puppet mass pulling a straight hair sur there. 1724 01:53:33.399 --> 01:53:33.600 Right. 1725 01:53:34.000 --> 01:53:37.640 Then you've got time manga types in the meat just 1726 01:53:37.720 --> 01:53:41.079 playing a whack a mole game of trying to gain 1727 01:53:41.199 --> 01:53:45.119 hid every which way they can. And you have those 1728 01:53:45.159 --> 01:53:49.920 in America who are worried about their own financial their 1729 01:53:49.960 --> 01:53:54.600 own financial soundness, very valid, right, But they also have 1730 01:53:54.720 --> 01:53:59.800 to understand that the media is purposely hyping the hysteria 1731 01:54:00.079 --> 01:54:03.920 over what Donald Trump is doing and purposely ignoring the 1732 01:54:04.039 --> 01:54:08.960 long term gains that his strategy will bring for political 1733 01:54:09.039 --> 01:54:13.000 reasons simply to destroy this administration, destroy MAGA, and to 1734 01:54:13.079 --> 01:54:15.560 go back to a time in America where it was 1735 01:54:16.199 --> 01:54:21.319 a Chinese system of communist capitalism that was being steamrolled 1736 01:54:21.319 --> 01:54:24.119 at the bequest of the World Economic Form through the 1737 01:54:24.159 --> 01:54:26.199 White House, into America's economy. 1738 01:54:26.600 --> 01:54:28.119 So there's a faction. 1739 01:54:27.960 --> 01:54:32.399 In America that is purposely trying to use Donald Trump's 1740 01:54:32.399 --> 01:54:35.880 strategy against him. I think most Americans, though, are on 1741 01:54:35.960 --> 01:54:38.159 the side of what Donald Trump is doing because they 1742 01:54:38.199 --> 01:54:40.720 see the sense. They see the sense of bringing back 1743 01:54:40.800 --> 01:54:45.399 prescriptions right manufacturing to America, and what he's doing with 1744 01:54:45.560 --> 01:54:49.159 chips one of the greatest things that I've seen come 1745 01:54:49.199 --> 01:54:51.119 out of the White House in years. We need to 1746 01:54:51.119 --> 01:54:55.119 bring back chips assembly and manufacturing to America. That is 1747 01:54:55.199 --> 01:54:57.079 definitely a national security issue. 1748 01:54:57.199 --> 01:55:01.600 Yeah, chips, rare, earth minerals, pharmaci, all the rest of it. 1749 01:55:01.680 --> 01:55:05.399 We cannot be beholden to these companies and subject to 1750 01:55:05.800 --> 01:55:08.840 the whims or supply chain issues, and you know, there's 1751 01:55:08.920 --> 01:55:11.159 a China said the other day that it's going to 1752 01:55:11.520 --> 01:55:15.159 put a pause or temporarily stop shipping rares minerals not 1753 01:55:15.199 --> 01:55:18.279 only to the United States but to other countries around 1754 01:55:18.319 --> 01:55:21.920 the world. And we just can't let ourselves fall victim 1755 01:55:22.159 --> 01:55:25.359 to that sort of whim in the future. Cheryl Chumley, 1756 01:55:25.359 --> 01:55:27.399 stay right there. We've got to get a quick break 1757 01:55:27.439 --> 01:55:30.000 in here, and we will be back with you momentarily. 1758 01:55:30.279 --> 01:55:32.319 So let's go ahead and do that, and we will 1759 01:55:32.359 --> 01:55:36.960 continue on fifty five KRC, the Talk Station. Fifty five KRC, 1760 01:55:37.479 --> 01:55:40.119 the Talk station. Are you looking for a Peaceful Place? 1761 01:55:40.159 --> 01:55:43.720 For eight nineteen on this Tuesday morning, Dan Carroll for 1762 01:55:43.760 --> 01:55:48.159 Brian Thomas, continuing our conversation with Cheryl Chumley, the online 1763 01:55:48.159 --> 01:55:51.920 opinion editor of The Washington Times. And Cheryl Chumley, did 1764 01:55:51.960 --> 01:55:56.359 you happen to see the meeting in the Oval Office 1765 01:55:56.399 --> 01:56:00.520 yesterday with the President of Al Salvador and Donald Trump 1766 01:56:00.600 --> 01:56:02.720 is there? You know, he's got all the media in there, 1767 01:56:02.720 --> 01:56:05.560 He's fielding questions and you know they're talking about this 1768 01:56:05.640 --> 01:56:07.720 dude that got deported and all the rest of it. 1769 01:56:07.760 --> 01:56:10.720 And Caitlin Collins is you know, trying to pin down 1770 01:56:10.720 --> 01:56:13.640 Trump and I just thought it was great because you've 1771 01:56:13.680 --> 01:56:16.800 got Marco Rubio in there, You've got Pambody in there, 1772 01:56:17.159 --> 01:56:20.159 You've got Steven Miller in there, and Jay eve Ans 1773 01:56:20.319 --> 01:56:25.319 was there, and Donald Trump is not afraid to toss 1774 01:56:25.359 --> 01:56:28.560 it out to someone who may have more expertise than 1775 01:56:28.640 --> 01:56:31.039 him to handle these different questions. And I thought the 1776 01:56:31.039 --> 01:56:34.840 way Marco Rubio laid it out was just fantastic. And 1777 01:56:35.399 --> 01:56:37.720 if you look at Marco Rubio, I think that guy's 1778 01:56:37.760 --> 01:56:39.000 just been doing a great job. 1779 01:56:38.880 --> 01:56:42.000 So far, hasn't he though. Okay, so first off, I 1780 01:56:42.039 --> 01:56:44.119 didn't see it, but I've read the headline and I've 1781 01:56:44.159 --> 01:56:46.920 read a little bit about it. But Marco Rubio is, 1782 01:56:47.439 --> 01:56:50.680 without a doubt, one of the strongest members of Donald 1783 01:56:50.720 --> 01:56:53.920 Trump's administration. And I just think back when he and 1784 01:56:54.000 --> 01:56:56.520 Donald Trump we are going at it on the campaign trail. 1785 01:56:56.720 --> 01:57:01.359 It's just it really speaks so high lee of both 1786 01:57:01.399 --> 01:57:05.520 Donald Trump and Marco Rubio and many in the Republican 1787 01:57:05.560 --> 01:57:09.560 Party itself who are able to push aside petty politics 1788 01:57:09.600 --> 01:57:13.079 to come together for the greater good of America first. 1789 01:57:13.239 --> 01:57:14.319 And it's just. 1790 01:57:14.399 --> 01:57:17.800 It's amazing to see Marco Rubio defend this nation. He's 1791 01:57:17.840 --> 01:57:21.800 strong he's dead on with his communication, his bullet points. 1792 01:57:22.279 --> 01:57:26.640 He's unafraid and honestly, he's emerging as presidential material himself. 1793 01:57:26.760 --> 01:57:30.439 Yeah, he wrote an op ed for the for Fox 1794 01:57:30.760 --> 01:57:33.079 that that I read yesterday on the air, and it 1795 01:57:33.119 --> 01:57:36.640 was it was just it's so plain spoken, it's so brilliant, 1796 01:57:36.680 --> 01:57:39.520 it's so easy to understand, and it's uh that there's 1797 01:57:39.560 --> 01:57:43.039 no equivocating what so on or whatsoever. And he's he's 1798 01:57:43.119 --> 01:57:46.199 essentially saying, look, these are the policies of the United States, 1799 01:57:46.399 --> 01:57:49.000 these are the policies of this president. And that is 1800 01:57:49.199 --> 01:57:51.239 and these are the policies that we're going to follow. 1801 01:57:51.760 --> 01:57:54.479 That's the bottom line, no ifs ands or butts. And 1802 01:57:54.800 --> 01:57:58.119 I mean, he really is acquitting himself quite well and 1803 01:57:58.359 --> 01:58:01.359 making the trumpet really I think making you know, it's 1804 01:58:01.359 --> 01:58:05.359 like this. When Reagan was president, Reagan always talked about 1805 01:58:05.560 --> 01:58:09.319 how it was important to surround yourself with people who 1806 01:58:09.359 --> 01:58:12.640 are smarter than you in different areas because you can't 1807 01:58:12.640 --> 01:58:16.079 be an expert on everything. And I think Trump, once 1808 01:58:16.119 --> 01:58:18.760 he finally got that message, has really put a lot 1809 01:58:18.760 --> 01:58:20.640 of good people around himself this time around. 1810 01:58:21.560 --> 01:58:25.039 He has and sticking with Marco Rubio for a second 1811 01:58:25.439 --> 01:58:28.680 you know, when he first emerged in politics and he 1812 01:58:28.760 --> 01:58:31.279 made his presidential run and he was trying to move 1813 01:58:31.399 --> 01:58:35.079 up the political ladder, he struck many times to me 1814 01:58:35.279 --> 01:58:39.439 watching him as a little bit angry and sometimes even petty, 1815 01:58:40.520 --> 01:58:43.840 a little bit uncontrolled with his emotions, too ready to 1816 01:58:43.880 --> 01:58:46.199 get in the fray, to get in the dirt and 1817 01:58:46.239 --> 01:58:48.920 so forth. And now it just seems like every time 1818 01:58:48.960 --> 01:58:52.279 I hear him, see him, listen to his words, he 1819 01:58:52.319 --> 01:58:56.640 seems very statesmanlike. And it's just it is refreshing. It's 1820 01:58:56.680 --> 01:59:00.399 not just Marco Rubio. Donald Trump has really take some 1821 01:59:00.479 --> 01:59:04.159 great people to surround himself with this time. And I 1822 01:59:04.199 --> 01:59:07.840 think this is why he's having such great success, because 1823 01:59:08.079 --> 01:59:11.399 the opposition sure hasn't turned down, right, the opposition is 1824 01:59:11.439 --> 01:59:14.960 still as present and as vigorous as it was from 1825 01:59:14.960 --> 01:59:16.199 his first administration. 1826 01:59:16.479 --> 01:59:18.760 Yeah. I saw the other day a side by side 1827 01:59:18.800 --> 01:59:22.600 video of Janet Yellen and then you know, talking about uh, 1828 01:59:23.000 --> 01:59:26.319 you know, economic treasury policy. And then I saw, you know, 1829 01:59:26.359 --> 01:59:30.039 the other side was Scott the scent. I mean, you 1830 01:59:30.079 --> 01:59:32.920 talk about night and day. It's it could it couldn't 1831 01:59:32.920 --> 01:59:35.720 have been any more different. I don't have you seen 1832 01:59:35.960 --> 01:59:38.880 the video that Bill Maher put out after his dinner 1833 01:59:38.920 --> 01:59:40.680 with Donald Trump and Kid Rock. 1834 01:59:40.800 --> 01:59:42.520 I saw clips of it, not the whole thing. 1835 01:59:42.560 --> 01:59:45.960 Ye's clip, but it's it's it's amazing. And I'm you know, 1836 01:59:46.000 --> 01:59:48.199 I'm gonna give props to Bill Maher for coming out 1837 01:59:48.239 --> 01:59:51.600 and and talking honestly about what he saw at the 1838 01:59:51.640 --> 01:59:54.479 White House and and what his interaction with Donald Trump 1839 01:59:54.560 --> 01:59:57.000 is like. And I find it interesting that a couple 1840 01:59:57.079 --> 01:59:59.199 of days after, you know, he know, he talked about 1841 01:59:59.239 --> 02:00:02.760 his revelations and his time his conversations with Donald Trump, 1842 02:00:02.920 --> 02:00:06.399 that he's being criticized from those on the left who 1843 02:00:06.439 --> 02:00:09.520 are calling him a sellout or a useful idiot for 1844 02:00:09.560 --> 02:00:13.079 Trump and a propaganda's for Trump because he's giving his 1845 02:00:13.159 --> 02:00:15.800 honest assessment of what his time in the White House 1846 02:00:16.079 --> 02:00:18.600 with Trump is. And I think this is, you know, 1847 02:00:18.680 --> 02:00:21.560 even more of a reveal of what the left is 1848 02:00:21.640 --> 02:00:25.079 really like when it comes to people being honest and 1849 02:00:25.119 --> 02:00:26.960 trying to have an honest you know, they're always the 1850 02:00:26.960 --> 02:00:29.159 ones to talk about we have to have an honest 1851 02:00:29.199 --> 02:00:32.399 discussion or an honest conversation about these sorts of things. 1852 02:00:32.479 --> 02:00:34.439 But when you try to do that, they're the ones 1853 02:00:34.479 --> 02:00:38.720 that always do everything they can to shut it down, Yes. 1854 02:00:38.640 --> 02:00:42.319 And I do agree that he does get, you know, 1855 02:00:42.439 --> 02:00:45.680 kudos for him for meeting with Trump in the White 1856 02:00:45.680 --> 02:00:49.680 House and then coming out and reporting accurately, even though 1857 02:00:49.680 --> 02:00:52.720 it put his own prior views in a bad light 1858 02:00:52.880 --> 02:00:54.800 on what he experienced at the White House. But on 1859 02:00:54.840 --> 02:00:56.560 the other hand, I'm kind of you know, I look 1860 02:00:56.560 --> 02:00:58.399 at him and I think, well, where were you all this? 1861 02:00:58.800 --> 02:01:02.840 You know, Trump has an exactly changed. What happened is 1862 02:01:02.880 --> 02:01:06.279 that he was willing right that Bill Maher himself was 1863 02:01:06.399 --> 02:01:08.960 willing to give the guy a chance and to move 1864 02:01:09.079 --> 02:01:12.840 past his own internal biases and step outside his own 1865 02:01:13.279 --> 02:01:16.239 pro like bubble that has become the Democrat Party, a 1866 02:01:16.239 --> 02:01:20.479 bunch of marching Marxists, all beating the same drum. Right, 1867 02:01:20.760 --> 02:01:23.520 he was willing finally to give this president a chance. 1868 02:01:23.560 --> 02:01:26.199 But had he been willing to do that in you know, 1869 02:01:26.239 --> 02:01:30.319 twenty sixteen to twenty twenty, then he may have been 1870 02:01:30.319 --> 02:01:32.720 seeing a different tune back then as well. So it's 1871 02:01:32.760 --> 02:01:35.479 sort of like, yay, you know, good for you, but 1872 02:01:35.560 --> 02:01:36.319 where have you been? 1873 02:01:36.520 --> 02:01:39.319 Yeah? Good point, So Cheryl Tellley, we'll let you go. 1874 02:01:39.359 --> 02:01:42.039 But before we do that, are you feeling Are you 1875 02:01:42.079 --> 02:01:44.840 feeling better? Are you feeling more empowered as a woman today, 1876 02:01:45.159 --> 02:01:48.720 now that Katy Perry and Gail King and Jeff Bezos' 1877 02:01:48.840 --> 02:01:52.079 girlfriend took their trip up into space, and you know, 1878 02:01:52.560 --> 02:01:55.439 with the historic flight of six women up in the 1879 02:01:55.720 --> 02:01:57.600 space capsule, I'm. 1880 02:01:57.479 --> 02:02:01.640 Actually feeling a little bit jealous. I wish I could 1881 02:02:01.640 --> 02:02:04.800 have been on that place. I don't know about empowered more. 1882 02:02:04.760 --> 02:02:09.720 Jealous Cheryld Chumley, always great having you on.

Absolutely, absolutely, I did. 1907 02:03:26.600 --> 02:03:29.920 Way too much. But well, we have huge, huge changes 1908 02:03:29.920 --> 02:03:34.800 going on in climate policy and energy right now, just 1909 02:03:34.840 --> 02:03:35.600 big big things. 1910 02:03:35.680 --> 02:03:37.760 Absolutely. I mean, before we get to that, let me 1911 02:03:37.760 --> 02:03:40.159 ask you a question. You know, we live in historic time, sure, 1912 02:03:40.439 --> 02:03:43.720 And of course we had the spectacle yesterday of the 1913 02:03:44.239 --> 02:03:47.439 Blue Origin rocketing into space and the six women up 1914 02:03:47.479 --> 02:03:50.039 there doing god knows what they were, and we've got 1915 02:03:50.079 --> 02:03:51.640 the audio of what they were doing up there. But 1916 02:03:53.039 --> 02:03:57.359 before the before the rocket took off, CBS was doing 1917 02:03:57.439 --> 02:04:01.720 an interview with a former astronaut, doctor May Jamison, and 1918 02:04:01.760 --> 02:04:05.119 one of the comments she made talking about the importance 1919 02:04:05.159 --> 02:04:09.560 of this historic space flight was that that she claimed, 1920 02:04:09.600 --> 02:04:13.239 and I don't know how the spaceflight figures into this. 1921 02:04:13.800 --> 02:04:17.159 But she claimed that the Earth already no longer has 1922 02:04:17.199 --> 02:04:23.520 an atmosphere that supports our life form. And I'm looking 1923 02:04:23.520 --> 02:04:25.479 at that and I'm thinking about that, Well, if the 1924 02:04:25.560 --> 02:04:28.199 Earth is not supporting our life form, how is it 1925 02:04:28.239 --> 02:04:30.600 that you and I are here in order to have 1926 02:04:30.680 --> 02:04:34.119 this this discussion today, and that she's out there still 1927 02:04:34.199 --> 02:04:34.800 drawing breath. 1928 02:04:36.000 --> 02:04:38.119 Yeah, I'm not sure what she meant what she meant 1929 02:04:38.119 --> 02:04:42.279 about that, that's I mean, she did she mentioned climate 1930 02:04:42.319 --> 02:04:44.399 at all. Is that what she was alluding to? Because 1931 02:04:45.359 --> 02:04:46.359 but again, while she was. 1932 02:04:46.319 --> 02:04:48.479 Talking about how you know, we're all humans and we're 1933 02:04:48.520 --> 02:04:50.880 all connected to the Earth, and you know, when you 1934 02:04:51.039 --> 02:04:53.520 go up and view the Earth from you know, wherever 1935 02:04:53.520 --> 02:04:55.880 they were reviewing it from, you know, it makes it 1936 02:04:55.880 --> 02:04:59.760 makes you realize how fragile the Earth is and that 1937 02:04:59.840 --> 02:05:02.399 the you know that somehow we you know, we just 1938 02:05:02.439 --> 02:05:04.920 don't aren't able to support life here on Earth anymore. 1939 02:05:06.680 --> 02:05:08.920 Humans certainly have had a big, a big impact on 1940 02:05:08.960 --> 02:05:11.560 the surface of the Earth. Of course, we've we have 1941 02:05:11.720 --> 02:05:14.079 farmed it, and we have cut down force. We've done 1942 02:05:14.119 --> 02:05:16.039 a lot of things to transform the surface of the Earth. 1943 02:05:16.039 --> 02:05:18.079 I don't know if the atmosphere has changed that much. 1944 02:05:18.159 --> 02:05:21.479 So you know, even the amounts that that humans emit 1945 02:05:21.560 --> 02:05:25.439 in terms of carbon dioxide is only about one or 1946 02:05:25.439 --> 02:05:28.560 two percent of well it's it's less than five percent 1947 02:05:28.600 --> 02:05:31.199 of the CO two that nature puts into the atmosphere 1948 02:05:31.239 --> 02:05:34.840 by itself. So we're pretty small in terms of what's 1949 02:05:34.880 --> 02:05:37.319 going on with the atmosphere. So I don't really understand 1950 02:05:37.359 --> 02:05:38.239 her comments there. 1951 02:05:38.479 --> 02:05:41.279 Yeah, yeah, as CBS was also making the point that 1952 02:05:41.760 --> 02:05:45.720 scientific experiments we're being conducted on this flight. You know, 1953 02:05:45.840 --> 02:05:48.359 the whole thing lasted eleven minutes. I don't know how 1954 02:05:48.399 --> 02:05:51.800 to Are you aware of any scientific experiments that can 1955 02:05:51.840 --> 02:05:53.359 be conducted in that spenting time? 1956 02:05:54.359 --> 02:05:56.319 That's a short one. Well, they probably had some electronic 1957 02:05:56.359 --> 02:06:01.039 sensors that were sensing something, but you know, uh, one 1958 02:06:01.079 --> 02:06:03.439 of the things mister Trump has said is that in 1959 02:06:03.479 --> 02:06:06.800 his administration is a NASA now and this wasn't a 1960 02:06:06.880 --> 02:06:08.560 NASA thing. I think it was a private thing. But 1961 02:06:08.680 --> 02:06:13.239 NASA must stick to space and and and flights into space, 1962 02:06:13.279 --> 02:06:16.520 and they're no longer able to do climate anymore. Really 1963 02:06:16.600 --> 02:06:19.319 a tremendous change, and they're cutting about two thirds of 1964 02:06:19.359 --> 02:06:24.920 the budget that's associated anyway with climate change. At NASA. 1965 02:06:25.039 --> 02:06:28.479 So there's just some huge, huge policy changes in process. 1966 02:06:28.840 --> 02:06:32.760 Yeah, and speaking of Trump, Trump put out a an 1967 02:06:32.760 --> 02:06:37.439 executive order that deals with American energy and it talks 1968 02:06:37.439 --> 02:06:41.600 about overreach and and things like that. How does that 1969 02:06:41.960 --> 02:06:45.640 play into the whole the whole scope of of climate 1970 02:06:45.720 --> 02:06:47.000 policy in the United States. 1971 02:06:47.960 --> 02:06:49.800 Yeah, this just happened last week, and this is a 1972 02:06:49.800 --> 02:06:54.279 big deal. The President issued an executive order called Protecting 1973 02:06:54.279 --> 02:07:00.439 American Energy from State Overreach, and he said that that 1974 02:07:00.600 --> 02:07:05.760 state laws we're seeking to regulate energy beyond their constitutional 1975 02:07:05.920 --> 02:07:11.960 statutory authorities, and he actually called them extortion laws, and 1976 02:07:12.000 --> 02:07:15.520 he mentioned New York, in Vermont, in California, and he 1977 02:07:15.560 --> 02:07:18.640 directed the US Attorney General of Pam Bondi to identify 1978 02:07:18.680 --> 02:07:22.119 these laws that were burdening domestic energy resources or may 1979 02:07:22.199 --> 02:07:25.800 or may not be unconstitutional, preempted by federal law, or 1980 02:07:25.840 --> 02:07:30.159 otherwise unenforceable, within sixty days, and to recommend actions to 1981 02:07:30.279 --> 02:07:33.319 change this. So we're actually going to have the federal 1982 02:07:33.359 --> 02:07:38.079 government that are suing the states for their climate laws. 1983 02:07:38.079 --> 02:07:41.479 This has not happened to my knowledge, to any extent 1984 02:07:41.560 --> 02:07:45.359 over the last years. Really a huge change, and we 1985 02:07:45.399 --> 02:07:47.079 haven't heard much about it in the press. 1986 02:07:47.720 --> 02:07:50.680 Yeah, Well, if the press has are away anything that 1987 02:07:51.239 --> 02:07:54.119 doesn't fit their particular climate narrative, we won't hear much 1988 02:07:54.119 --> 02:07:56.560 about it at all. I want to ask you about 1989 02:07:56.560 --> 02:07:59.640 solar panels and windmills, but we got to get to 1990 02:07:59.640 --> 02:08:01.640 a quick break here, So Steve Gorham, if you would 1991 02:08:02.199 --> 02:08:04.039 just hang on and we'll get right back to you 1992 02:08:04.239 --> 02:08:07.000 as we roll on on fifty five KRC, the Talk station. 1993 02:08:07.279 --> 02:08:17.479 This is fifty five KARC and iHeartRadio station, the. 1994 02:08:17.560 --> 02:08:22.000 Talk station, continuing our conversation with Steve Gorham, Executive director 1995 02:08:22.000 --> 02:08:26.000 of the Climate Science Coalition of America and Steve Gorham. 1996 02:08:26.239 --> 02:08:28.359 One of the things that Donald Trump has done is 1997 02:08:28.359 --> 02:08:31.039 the imposed tariffs on China. And this is going to 1998 02:08:31.119 --> 02:08:33.880 have a pretty major effect on China because they send 1999 02:08:33.960 --> 02:08:38.239 us so many solar panels and so many elements that 2000 02:08:38.279 --> 02:08:42.720 are involved in the construction of an operating of the 2001 02:08:42.760 --> 02:08:44.960 windmills and the turbines and all that kind of stuff. 2002 02:08:45.960 --> 02:08:48.479 Yeah, this is gonna be the biggest impact. He has 2003 02:08:48.560 --> 02:08:51.079 kept ten percent tariffs on every nation. He also has 2004 02:08:51.119 --> 02:08:55.359 twenty five percent on steel, aluminum, and automobiles. He's pretty 2005 02:08:55.439 --> 02:08:57.760 much backed off on everything else. I think he's negotiating 2006 02:08:57.760 --> 02:09:00.560 there negotiating with more than one hundred countries now over 2007 02:09:00.560 --> 02:09:03.920 the next ninety days. But China has not said they 2008 02:09:03.920 --> 02:09:06.520 want to negotiate. They've just retaliated with terraffs, and so 2009 02:09:06.640 --> 02:09:10.640 now China and the US both have terrors over one 2010 02:09:10.680 --> 02:09:13.760 hundred percent on imports and exports, I think, And this 2011 02:09:13.840 --> 02:09:15.680 is really, as you say, this is going to hammer 2012 02:09:16.239 --> 02:09:19.800 a renewable energy equipment. Eighty percent of the world's solar 2013 02:09:19.920 --> 02:09:23.560 cells and panels are made by China or they are 2014 02:09:23.640 --> 02:09:28.159 using components from China. Also, these big grid scale batteries 2015 02:09:28.159 --> 02:09:30.680 that California and New York and some other states want 2016 02:09:30.680 --> 02:09:32.520 to put in place to back up wind and solar, 2017 02:09:33.840 --> 02:09:36.000 most of those batteries or at least the metals for 2018 02:09:36.000 --> 02:09:40.079 the batteries come from China. And so these prices are 2019 02:09:40.079 --> 02:09:42.359 going to skyrocket. It's going to have a huge impact 2020 02:09:43.319 --> 02:09:50.279 and just another problem with green equipment, green energy. It's 2021 02:09:50.319 --> 02:09:53.000 just going to stop stop by green energy and its tracks. 2022 02:09:53.319 --> 02:09:56.640 Yeah, and with all the subsidies that are being cut 2023 02:09:56.640 --> 02:09:59.720 off as well, we are seeing and the reports still 2024 02:09:59.720 --> 02:10:03.520 come int almost daily of this wind farm that is 2025 02:10:03.560 --> 02:10:08.239 shutting down, this solar panel project that has run out 2026 02:10:08.239 --> 02:10:10.439 of money, and I don't know if I've had a 2027 02:10:10.520 --> 02:10:12.000 chance to ask you about this, but I know I 2028 02:10:12.039 --> 02:10:15.840 read an article not that long ago talking about once 2029 02:10:15.920 --> 02:10:19.239 these solar panels come to the end of their life, 2030 02:10:19.680 --> 02:10:23.279 that we really don't have a good way to dispose 2031 02:10:23.680 --> 02:10:28.960 of these solar panels because I guess they're necessarily going 2032 02:10:29.000 --> 02:10:31.239 to have to go into a landfill. But there's so 2033 02:10:31.319 --> 02:10:35.520 many toxic chemicals that are involved in producing these solar 2034 02:10:35.560 --> 02:10:38.640 panels that eventually these things leach out into the ground 2035 02:10:38.720 --> 02:10:42.920 and calls all sorts of other problems as well well. 2036 02:10:42.960 --> 02:10:45.600 I think I think most of our landfills now have 2037 02:10:45.760 --> 02:10:48.640 canvas and other things to prevent stuff from leaching. But 2038 02:10:49.199 --> 02:10:50.840 the amount of waste really is huge. 2039 02:10:50.920 --> 02:10:51.119 You know. 2040 02:10:51.159 --> 02:10:54.840 It's when you're using hydrocarbons, you're basically burning up the 2041 02:10:54.840 --> 02:10:57.439 fuel and there's nothing left except the water, vapor and 2042 02:10:57.439 --> 02:11:00.560 the carbon acid that goes in the atmosphere. And you 2043 02:11:00.600 --> 02:11:03.399 don't replace power plants, you know, maybe once every fifty 2044 02:11:03.439 --> 02:11:06.520 sixty years, but if you're replacing the solar panels every 2045 02:11:06.600 --> 02:11:11.359 twenty years. Now in California, for example, our federal agencies 2046 02:11:11.359 --> 02:11:14.640 have said it costs about twenty to twenty five dollars 2047 02:11:16.840 --> 02:11:21.000 to try and recycle materials from a solar panel, but 2048 02:11:21.079 --> 02:11:23.920 you only get about four dollars worth of useful metals 2049 02:11:23.960 --> 02:11:25.880 out of it, and if you were to send it 2050 02:11:25.920 --> 02:11:28.319 to the landfill and only cost one or two dollars. 2051 02:11:28.720 --> 02:11:31.840 So nobody's going to recycle these things unless there's huge 2052 02:11:31.920 --> 02:11:35.079 state or federal subsidies to do so, they're going to 2053 02:11:35.079 --> 02:11:37.680 send them to landfills. And so as we put more 2054 02:11:37.720 --> 02:11:40.199 and more of these in, we send them to landfills. 2055 02:11:40.199 --> 02:11:42.479 And you know, I sent you a little image of 2056 02:11:42.520 --> 02:11:44.720 this picture in New York, which is also in my 2057 02:11:45.640 --> 02:11:50.640 last book, Green Breakdown. There's a congressman standing next to 2058 02:11:50.640 --> 02:11:54.239 this huge pile of wind turbine blades, which is thirty 2059 02:11:54.239 --> 02:11:57.439 forty feet high in New York. And when the wind 2060 02:11:57.439 --> 02:12:00.600 turbines blades we're out, they have to top them up 2061 02:12:00.640 --> 02:12:03.600 or burn them. They're too big for landfills. It's it's 2062 02:12:03.640 --> 02:12:06.399 really a significant problem that is getting bigger and bigger 2063 02:12:06.399 --> 02:12:07.760 as we put more of these things in. 2064 02:12:08.079 --> 02:12:10.479 Yeah, I'm looking I'm looking at it right now. It is. 2065 02:12:10.560 --> 02:12:14.119 It is an astonishing photograph, and I think, really it 2066 02:12:14.159 --> 02:12:17.960 gets to the point of just the absolute mountain of 2067 02:12:18.039 --> 02:12:22.319 waste that these things create all. Have you been surprised 2068 02:12:22.319 --> 02:12:25.159 at all by the amount of waste, fraud and abuse 2069 02:12:25.239 --> 02:12:28.079 that Lee Zeldon has uncovered at the EPA. 2070 02:12:30.159 --> 02:12:34.279 Well, I you know, it really is amazing. And you know, 2071 02:12:34.520 --> 02:12:36.840 mister Musk and his doage group has gone through a 2072 02:12:36.840 --> 02:12:39.520 lot of those and I just I just wrote an 2073 02:12:39.600 --> 02:12:44.079 article about the Department of Defense. Pete Haigseth has said, 2074 02:12:44.279 --> 02:12:46.439 we do not do climate change crap, and he's cutting 2075 02:12:46.439 --> 02:12:50.159 out all the climate programs. But to listen to some 2076 02:12:50.199 --> 02:12:54.479 of these programs. They published a paper in twenty twenty 2077 02:12:54.479 --> 02:12:57.319 two lauding the things they did in they did in climate. 2078 02:12:57.359 --> 02:13:00.600 This was the US Navy lauding the difference different things 2079 02:13:00.640 --> 02:13:03.439 they did for the climates. And one of them was 2080 02:13:04.520 --> 02:13:08.199 studying climate change in the Mekong Delta of Vietnam with 2081 02:13:08.239 --> 02:13:11.319 the government of Vietnam. This is a Navy project. Another 2082 02:13:11.359 --> 02:13:16.600 one was a California organic recycling and composting Another one 2083 02:13:16.680 --> 02:13:18.720 was a partnership with the Armed Forces of Ghana to 2084 02:13:19.079 --> 02:13:22.319 combat vector born diseases. This is the United States Navy 2085 02:13:22.760 --> 02:13:25.520 putting money out for these things. None of these things 2086 02:13:25.560 --> 02:13:29.359 improved Navy military readiness in any way, of course, And 2087 02:13:29.399 --> 02:13:31.279 this is just and you know, I just found this. 2088 02:13:31.359 --> 02:13:34.000 Look at online that stuff that the Navy was publishing. 2089 02:13:34.039 --> 02:13:37.199 There's this, there's this analyst amounts of this government money 2090 02:13:37.239 --> 02:13:40.760 that's going into stuff that doesn't do anything really useful 2091 02:13:40.760 --> 02:13:42.520 as far as military purposes. 2092 02:13:42.640 --> 02:13:44.520 Oh, you know, it wasn't that long ago. We had 2093 02:13:44.520 --> 02:13:47.119 a commander in chief and a chairman of the Joint 2094 02:13:47.199 --> 02:13:51.319 Chiefs of Staff tell our graduating cadets at the Army 2095 02:13:51.520 --> 02:13:54.439 and our midshipman at the Navy that the number one 2096 02:13:54.439 --> 02:13:57.119 threat to America was climate change. You know that, never 2097 02:13:57.159 --> 02:14:01.039 mind Russia, never mind North Korea, never mind China, it's 2098 02:14:01.119 --> 02:14:03.880 climate change. And I love this chart you put out 2099 02:14:04.279 --> 02:14:07.920 of US military emissions by service and equipment type, and 2100 02:14:08.199 --> 02:14:10.199 you know, you've got the Air Force has got fifty 2101 02:14:10.359 --> 02:14:13.680 six percent of emissions, and then you know, different aircraft 2102 02:14:13.680 --> 02:14:15.680 than the Navy. And then you got a little small 2103 02:14:15.720 --> 02:14:18.600 sliver down there with the Marine Corps only puts out 2104 02:14:18.600 --> 02:14:22.720 five percent of our emissions. That would figure that. You know, 2105 02:14:22.760 --> 02:14:26.399 they're probably the most efficient out of all the military services. 2106 02:14:26.720 --> 02:14:29.600 And they've got you know, the I guess, the smallest 2107 02:14:29.600 --> 02:14:31.560 carbon footprint you can possibly have. 2108 02:14:32.640 --> 02:14:35.359 That came from the Department of Defense and President Biden 2109 02:14:35.399 --> 02:14:37.159 hit them all marching down this We're going to do 2110 02:14:37.239 --> 02:14:40.239 climate stuff. I mean, the Army even was going to 2111 02:14:40.279 --> 02:14:44.359 take all of its field technical vehicles, including the heavy ones, 2112 02:14:44.359 --> 02:14:48.079 including tanks, and run them on electric engines. And they 2113 02:14:48.119 --> 02:14:52.079 also they were developing battlefield chargers. If you can imagine, 2114 02:14:52.079 --> 02:14:54.399 they're going to drive chargers out, sit them somewhere and 2115 02:14:54.439 --> 02:14:56.199 have these tanks sitting next to them for an hour 2116 02:14:56.319 --> 02:14:59.159 or two at a time. I mean, this stuff is fantasy. 2117 02:15:00.399 --> 02:15:03.880 It does nothing for our military capability. It's just there 2118 02:15:03.880 --> 02:15:07.840 for climates. And uh and Pete higgstuff is cutting all 2119 02:15:07.840 --> 02:15:08.479 this stuff out. 2120 02:15:09.079 --> 02:15:11.119 Yeah, well, thank god. I don't I don't know how 2121 02:15:11.159 --> 02:15:14.319 anyone in their right mind could look at that and 2122 02:15:14.520 --> 02:15:17.600 in a practical sense think that that that that is 2123 02:15:17.640 --> 02:15:19.920 a good idea. And you know, Steve Gornam, I mean 2124 02:15:19.920 --> 02:15:22.079 that that's the thing to me, with so much of 2125 02:15:22.119 --> 02:15:25.479 this stuff that in a practical sense and when you know, 2126 02:15:25.520 --> 02:15:29.000 when you talk about the economics of it, and you 2127 02:15:29.000 --> 02:15:33.479 you know, and everything else that goes into all the 2128 02:15:33.600 --> 02:15:36.119 you know, the different wind turbines and the solar panels 2129 02:15:36.199 --> 02:15:39.399 and green energy this and the biofuels and everything else 2130 02:15:39.720 --> 02:15:42.840 that and on on an economic sense. You know, none 2131 02:15:42.840 --> 02:15:46.720 of this stuff exists but for government subsidies. And once 2132 02:15:46.760 --> 02:15:49.439 you wipe those out, well, these these things they fold 2133 02:15:49.520 --> 02:15:50.239 like a chief suit. 2134 02:15:51.800 --> 02:15:54.680 Yeah, we're gonna have a lot of bankruptcies too with 2135 02:15:54.760 --> 02:15:59.079 all this stuff. As you say, cutting funding across all 2136 02:15:59.119 --> 02:16:02.640 these different industry, they're also laying off a lot of headcount. 2137 02:16:03.159 --> 02:16:06.720 I mentioned NASA and Noah, but they're coming headcount. The 2138 02:16:06.800 --> 02:16:09.960 Environmental Protection Agency, they just shut down a museum at 2139 02:16:10.000 --> 02:16:13.359 the Environmental Protection Agency. They had their own museum, but 2140 02:16:13.600 --> 02:16:16.600 it costs per visitor. It was costing them over three 2141 02:16:16.680 --> 02:16:19.880 hundred dollars because they didn't have any visitors. The museum 2142 02:16:19.920 --> 02:16:22.840 was expensive. Well, anyway, lies eld In, the shuttle it down. 2143 02:16:23.319 --> 02:16:26.359 The Federal Energy Management Agency is shutting down their climate 2144 02:16:26.399 --> 02:16:29.279 programs as well. And if you have anything, any research 2145 02:16:29.359 --> 02:16:32.360 project that says climate on it, that is going away 2146 02:16:32.399 --> 02:16:35.319 in the federal government. Mister Trump is completely transforming at 2147 02:16:35.360 --> 02:16:36.120 top to bottom. 2148 02:16:37.239 --> 02:16:41.719 So with your book is green breakdown? The coming renewable 2149 02:16:41.840 --> 02:16:45.559 energy failure? Are we already here? Have we reached that 2150 02:16:45.680 --> 02:16:49.719 stage already with the renewable energy failure? Is that upon 2151 02:16:49.799 --> 02:16:50.360 us right now? 2152 02:16:51.280 --> 02:16:53.280 Now? This is quicker than I expected. I thought this 2153 02:16:53.319 --> 02:16:55.879 would take several decades, and it probably will around the world, 2154 02:16:55.959 --> 02:17:00.200 but mister Trump is accelerating this green breakdown. It's a 2155 02:17:00.319 --> 02:17:03.000 very readable book. It has the science, economics, and also 2156 02:17:03.040 --> 02:17:06.520 got one hundred and fifty color side bars. One of 2157 02:17:06.559 --> 02:17:10.479 those is this headline Britain's advice to stop showering to 2158 02:17:10.559 --> 02:17:14.440 conserve energy, and there was also a minister in Switzerland 2159 02:17:14.440 --> 02:17:17.000 who said that people should shower with a friend to 2160 02:17:17.040 --> 02:17:20.200 conserve energy. But you know, these are the crazy things 2161 02:17:20.200 --> 02:17:21.760 that are going on. But the book captures all this 2162 02:17:22.159 --> 02:17:26.079 funny stuff and gives people the real background they need 2163 02:17:26.239 --> 02:17:28.760 to see the crazy state the world is in and 2164 02:17:28.799 --> 02:17:29.840 how it's going to change. 2165 02:17:29.959 --> 02:17:32.440 Yeah, you know, you and I always talk when these 2166 02:17:32.879 --> 02:17:38.559 world climate gatherings take place, you know, under the auspices 2167 02:17:38.559 --> 02:17:42.040 of the United Nations or whatever organization it is. If 2168 02:17:42.040 --> 02:17:46.479 the United States no longer is going to participate in 2169 02:17:46.600 --> 02:17:50.479 these sort of events, do they have any impact, any 2170 02:17:50.520 --> 02:17:53.120 meaning at all? If the United States isn't there. 2171 02:17:54.719 --> 02:17:57.120 Well, right off the bat, there's about eight billion dollars 2172 02:17:57.159 --> 02:17:58.920 a year that comes out of it. Mister Trump has 2173 02:17:58.920 --> 02:18:02.760 shut that off. As part of the USAID they were 2174 02:18:02.799 --> 02:18:05.239 giving money, and then the US federal government was giving 2175 02:18:05.239 --> 02:18:10.280 money that's been shut off. And it is a big thing. 2176 02:18:10.319 --> 02:18:12.239 And I do think that this is different than his 2177 02:18:12.360 --> 02:18:14.200 first term. I think the world is ready. By the way, 2178 02:18:14.239 --> 02:18:16.559 a friend of mine, doctor Benny Piyser in Europe, says, 2179 02:18:16.600 --> 02:18:18.799 the people are just jaded with his climate stuff. He 2180 02:18:18.840 --> 02:18:21.799 thinks more than half the population over there doesn't believe 2181 02:18:21.799 --> 02:18:24.879 what leaders is telling him anymore. So I think we're 2182 02:18:24.920 --> 02:18:26.959 about to see a big revolution. People are going to 2183 02:18:27.000 --> 02:18:28.879 get out of the climate business. We're going to get 2184 02:18:28.879 --> 02:18:31.600 back to sensible energy policy. But it is going to 2185 02:18:31.600 --> 02:18:33.799 take quite a bit more for this to occur. 2186 02:18:34.799 --> 02:18:37.440 Well, you know, and I don't know if you want 2187 02:18:37.440 --> 02:18:39.120 to answer this question or not, but with all this 2188 02:18:39.200 --> 02:18:42.079 money that was changing hands, what percentage of that was 2189 02:18:42.120 --> 02:18:45.120 finding its way into the pockets of a lot of 2190 02:18:45.120 --> 02:18:47.559 these people who promote this sort of thing. 2191 02:18:48.680 --> 02:18:51.159 Well, there is a bunch of that, I think, Leezelden 2192 02:18:51.200 --> 02:18:54.520 and the EPA has pointed out that there was something 2193 02:18:54.600 --> 02:18:57.120 like twenty billion dollars that the EPA granted in the 2194 02:18:57.200 --> 02:19:01.600 last couple of months of the Trump administry two a 2195 02:19:01.719 --> 02:19:06.239 number of non governmental organizations to do climate stuff. It 2196 02:19:06.280 --> 02:19:09.639 went to I think the City Bank or somebody. There 2197 02:19:09.680 --> 02:19:12.319 really wasn't a lot of audit on it or tracking, 2198 02:19:12.920 --> 02:19:16.159 just a big shoveling of money. So you know, I've 2199 02:19:16.200 --> 02:19:18.760 always said the biggest, the bigger government gets, the more 2200 02:19:18.799 --> 02:19:21.200 waste you have. And we really need a lean government. 2201 02:19:21.280 --> 02:19:24.120 We need to get back to the markets and let 2202 02:19:24.120 --> 02:19:27.239 companies do their sorts of thing. And these these programs 2203 02:19:27.239 --> 02:19:30.319 that forced everybody to do certain things to try and 2204 02:19:30.360 --> 02:19:32.360 save the climate are really very foolish. 2205 02:19:32.479 --> 02:19:34.479 All right, well, Steve Gorham, with that, we will let 2206 02:19:34.520 --> 02:19:36.239 you go. If people want to find out more about 2207 02:19:36.239 --> 02:19:39.079 you and the Climate Science Coalition of America, how do 2208 02:19:39.120 --> 02:19:39.520 they do that? 2209 02:19:40.799 --> 02:19:43.280 Go to my website Steve Gorham dot com.
