The smither vent is what we call it 10 00:00:46.840 --> 00:00:49.159 on the heels of my father doing it for a 11 00:00:49.240 --> 00:00:51.359 long long time, and I know Christopher always says he's 12 00:00:51.359 --> 00:00:53.799 honored to sort of step in the shoes and my 13 00:00:53.920 --> 00:00:56.320 dad and giving them.

But just I missed 18 00:01:10.239 --> 00:01:11.000 my dad. Yeah. 19 00:01:11.000 --> 00:01:13.239 I posted a picture on Facebook my dad, picture of 20 00:01:13.280 --> 00:01:16.400 my dad and me. And of course Father's Day takes 21 00:01:16.400 --> 00:01:20.599 on a sort of a different I don't know, tone 22 00:01:20.719 --> 00:01:24.439 or something like that, looking for the right word when 23 00:01:24.480 --> 00:01:28.239 you lose your father. So but Dad, up there, I 24 00:01:28.280 --> 00:01:28.959 was thinking about you. 25 00:01:29.000 --> 00:01:29.840 A lot yesterday. 26 00:01:30.079 --> 00:01:33.519 So anyhow, I hope you celebrated Father's Day and in 27 00:01:33.560 --> 00:01:36.280 a good way, and that for all the fathers out 28 00:01:36.280 --> 00:01:40.840 there actually take the time and effort and set a 29 00:01:40.840 --> 00:01:44.000 good example for their children. God bless each and every 30 00:01:44.000 --> 00:01:47.760 one of you, because certainly that was my father. Today Monday, Monday, 31 00:01:47.799 --> 00:01:50.319 Brian James comes up at eight oh five talk Futures, 32 00:01:50.319 --> 00:01:53.120 talking about price of oil. The Iran Israel bombings are 33 00:01:53.159 --> 00:01:58.319 really impacting the futures in oil, fed interest rate announcement 34 00:01:58.439 --> 00:02:01.519 and a record number of people claim social security shocking 35 00:02:01.560 --> 00:02:04.319 no one who understands that all the baby boomers are 36 00:02:04.359 --> 00:02:08.159 retiring and going on so's security. And we'll hear from 37 00:02:08.199 --> 00:02:11.159 the since Adiva today Case cares at eight forty some 38 00:02:11.280 --> 00:02:13.520 updates from the VA and some important information from my 39 00:02:13.639 --> 00:02:15.759 veteran friends out there. God bless you, timber one of 40 00:02:15.800 --> 00:02:20.039 you two five and three seven nine fifty five hundred, 41 00:02:20.080 --> 00:02:22.879 eight hundred and eighty two three talk hit pound five 42 00:02:22.879 --> 00:02:24.800 point fifty if you have an AT and T phone 43 00:02:25.599 --> 00:02:30.120 anyway you the the shooting of these two Minnesota lawmakers. 44 00:02:30.479 --> 00:02:32.319 Of course, there's a million things going on in the world, 45 00:02:32.400 --> 00:02:36.680 most notably uh the conflict between Israel and Iran got 46 00:02:36.680 --> 00:02:39.479 a lot of information on that to pass along this morning. 47 00:02:41.280 --> 00:02:45.080 But this vance balter guy charged with murdering state Representative 48 00:02:45.120 --> 00:02:49.520 Melissa Hortman and her husband and for shooting Senator John 49 00:02:49.520 --> 00:02:52.879 Hoffman and his wife. He apparently had a manifesto. We 50 00:02:52.879 --> 00:02:55.439 haven't seen that yet, didn't release it. Apparently had a 51 00:02:55.439 --> 00:02:57.800 whole long list of other people who are on his 52 00:02:57.919 --> 00:03:00.840 hit list. Batcrap and sane. I think we can all 53 00:03:00.879 --> 00:03:01.520 agree on that. 54 00:03:03.039 --> 00:03:03.479 Anyway. 55 00:03:03.719 --> 00:03:08.120 He was arrested yesterday evening, ending a two day man hunt. 56 00:03:08.159 --> 00:03:10.280 They received a tip about a possible sighting of this 57 00:03:12.400 --> 00:03:16.319 almost FCC non compliant utterance from me near a wooded 58 00:03:16.360 --> 00:03:19.960 area of a place called Sibley County, sixty miles southwest 59 00:03:20.000 --> 00:03:25.759 of Minneapolis. Officers closed in and he reportedly followed commands, 60 00:03:25.960 --> 00:03:30.280 crawling toward them, apparently armed too, but he gave up. 61 00:03:32.439 --> 00:03:35.400 Police Chief Mark Burley of the Brooklyn Park Police just 62 00:03:35.439 --> 00:03:37.360 down at the scene where he was taken it to custody. 63 00:03:37.400 --> 00:03:41.000 There were twenty different SWAT teams over an extremely large 64 00:03:41.039 --> 00:03:46.919 area hunting this individual down. So charged with murder, of 65 00:03:46.919 --> 00:03:49.159 course they were if she was an elected official. And 66 00:03:49.159 --> 00:03:51.800 this is what's got me a lot of people all 67 00:03:51.800 --> 00:03:56.840 wigged out. I guess I have to ask, are you 68 00:03:56.919 --> 00:04:02.680 wigged out? I know Sarah herringers wigged out given that 69 00:04:03.360 --> 00:04:05.520 a guy who should have been arrested kicked in the 70 00:04:05.639 --> 00:04:10.280 door and murdered her husband. But let's pivot over to Congress. 71 00:04:10.960 --> 00:04:16.279 I saw this axious article summarizing the concerns expressed by 72 00:04:16.319 --> 00:04:21.199 our elected officials on a congressional level. Long simmering fight 73 00:04:21.240 --> 00:04:25.199 over congressional security roared back to the surface this weekend 74 00:04:25.199 --> 00:04:28.639 following a pair of shootings against Minnesota state legislators at 75 00:04:28.639 --> 00:04:31.720 their homes that left two dad and two others hospitalized. 76 00:04:33.519 --> 00:04:36.759 The shootings have deeply unnerved members of Congress, who feel 77 00:04:36.800 --> 00:04:38.480 that any one of them could be the subject of 78 00:04:38.519 --> 00:04:42.639 an unanticipated attack, particularly at home, in their districts and 79 00:04:42.720 --> 00:04:51.519 while in transit. Now, congressional leaders don't enjoy personal security. Joe, 80 00:04:51.560 --> 00:04:54.160 do you have personal security at your home? You have 81 00:04:54.199 --> 00:04:55.959 your own team of agents that are there to protect 82 00:04:56.000 --> 00:04:57.560 you against kick ins and things like that. 83 00:04:57.759 --> 00:05:02.319 I know the answers. No do I. 84 00:05:02.439 --> 00:05:05.240 Neither is any member of my listening audience unless they 85 00:05:05.240 --> 00:05:10.040 have paid for that for themselves. Apparently, if you're the 86 00:05:10.079 --> 00:05:12.720 CEO of a medical insurance company. You can get your 87 00:05:12.720 --> 00:05:14.240 head blown off the middle of the street. A lot 88 00:05:14.240 --> 00:05:16.199 of people are gonna run around and praise and celebrate 89 00:05:16.240 --> 00:05:17.279 the person who murdered you. 90 00:05:19.199 --> 00:05:28.399 Hmm. 91 00:05:28.639 --> 00:05:31.439 Rank and file members of Congress renewing a push for 92 00:05:31.560 --> 00:05:35.319 greater security, arguing for their own details, greater safety measures 93 00:05:35.360 --> 00:05:38.720 at their homes and at airports, and more stringent measures 94 00:05:38.720 --> 00:05:46.319 to hide their sensitive details. Details that you can't hide. 95 00:05:46.639 --> 00:05:48.399 Anybody can know where you live. Just search on the 96 00:05:48.439 --> 00:05:52.680 auditor's website. That's kind of weird, isn't it. And it's 97 00:05:52.680 --> 00:05:56.519 a public record. We have public records in this country. 98 00:05:56.879 --> 00:05:58.399 Used to be in the old days before the Internet, 99 00:05:58.439 --> 00:05:59.959 you had to go down of the Cameron County Courthouse, 100 00:06:00.040 --> 00:06:01.839 but you could ask for the information and give it 101 00:06:01.839 --> 00:06:04.399 that it would be given to you because it's considered 102 00:06:04.560 --> 00:06:10.120 public information. Now, just in an elected capacity, you're going 103 00:06:10.160 --> 00:06:13.360 to get greater security than every other American who struggles 104 00:06:13.399 --> 00:06:16.240 with perhaps security. How's your neighborhood in terms of safety. 105 00:06:16.879 --> 00:06:19.079 I know there's many residents of the City of Cincinnati 106 00:06:19.160 --> 00:06:23.040 certain neighborhoods with a massive increase in crime. Sarah Henderger 107 00:06:23.040 --> 00:06:26.279 will tell you all about it, or Herringer other I 108 00:06:26.360 --> 00:06:28.480 got a new statement from her, just issued a couple 109 00:06:28.480 --> 00:06:32.360 of days ago over the weekend, talking exactly about that. 110 00:06:32.439 --> 00:06:34.879 Apparently we've been lied to in terms of statistics on 111 00:06:34.920 --> 00:06:37.800 crime in downtown Cincinnati. Something tells me the mayor and 112 00:06:37.959 --> 00:06:42.600 city council is interested in well concerns over marketing. You 113 00:06:42.639 --> 00:06:44.839 don't want to let the world know the city of 114 00:06:44.839 --> 00:06:47.759 Cincinnati he's got higher crime. Oh my god, we won't 115 00:06:47.759 --> 00:06:49.639 be able to get more urban hipsters and move down 116 00:06:49.680 --> 00:06:52.160 into the city of Cincinnati. We won't be able to 117 00:06:52.240 --> 00:06:55.560 have this walking community that we all law think about 118 00:06:55.600 --> 00:07:03.600 and want well, at least from their perspective. Axios right, 119 00:07:03.639 --> 00:07:06.240 and the shooting sent shockwaves through Capitol Hill, which Center 120 00:07:06.279 --> 00:07:10.600 majority leader Chuck Schumer said he's asking for increase in 121 00:07:10.720 --> 00:07:15.360 security for Senators Amy Kloba Sharp Minnesota and Tina Smith Minnesota. 122 00:07:19.079 --> 00:07:23.759 She had this crazy guy in Minnesota killing two Minnesota lawmakers. 123 00:07:23.759 --> 00:07:27.600 So Chuckie Schumer is asking for increased security for Minnesota 124 00:07:27.680 --> 00:07:32.439 senators as if that's the only state where crime you 125 00:07:32.519 --> 00:07:36.680 might be a concern for elected officials. Hakeem Jefferies, House 126 00:07:36.720 --> 00:07:42.040 Minority Leader New York said he asked for security officials 127 00:07:42.079 --> 00:07:46.319 to ensure the safety of our Minnesota delegation and the 128 00:07:46.439 --> 00:07:52.959 operative word in the sentence members of Congress across the country. 129 00:07:54.399 --> 00:07:58.079 Representative Bernie Benny Thompson Mississippi, I call on the Capitol 130 00:07:58.079 --> 00:08:01.720 Police to assist in providing real solution for increased security 131 00:08:01.759 --> 00:08:07.600 for members. He apparently had a security detail of his 132 00:08:07.639 --> 00:08:10.560 own back in twenty twenty two as chairman of the 133 00:08:10.920 --> 00:08:16.360 January sixth Committee. So you get security depending on the 134 00:08:16.360 --> 00:08:17.800 type of committee that you're chair of. 135 00:08:24.839 --> 00:08:25.199 He said. 136 00:08:25.199 --> 00:08:29.079 He expects full cooperation and resources from the Republican leadership. 137 00:08:29.120 --> 00:08:34.360 We just, according to Representative Jared Moskwitz from Florida Democrat, 138 00:08:34.559 --> 00:08:38.679 speaking of axios, we're just as exposed as Hartman was. 139 00:08:39.039 --> 00:08:41.600 We have no more security than she does. You know, 140 00:08:41.759 --> 00:08:45.159 Capitol Police is not equipped for four hundred and thirty 141 00:08:45.159 --> 00:08:46.639 five members to keep them safe. 142 00:08:48.440 --> 00:08:49.639 He said. It's not their fault. 143 00:08:49.720 --> 00:08:57.200 Things have changed, and as Congress becomes less functional in general, 144 00:08:57.879 --> 00:09:01.600 we can't even function to keep ourselves safe. That's a 145 00:09:01.720 --> 00:09:11.879 quote what's changed, and I think we all might fully 146 00:09:11.879 --> 00:09:15.320 appreciate what's changed. I mean, I always go back to 147 00:09:15.399 --> 00:09:20.000 social media. You can't even call it discourse, can you? 148 00:09:22.480 --> 00:09:25.320 The elevated level of anger the No Kings rally over 149 00:09:25.320 --> 00:09:33.919 the weekend, which largely peaceful, just raging against the machine. 150 00:09:37.399 --> 00:09:39.440 And is it now out of the system. The folks 151 00:09:39.440 --> 00:09:41.039 that showed up with the No Kings rally, I mean, 152 00:09:41.080 --> 00:09:43.840 if they feel like they have made a point or 153 00:09:44.399 --> 00:09:47.519 I mean it was I guess overall rather well attended 154 00:09:47.600 --> 00:09:50.559 hundreds of thousands of people across the entire country, which 155 00:09:50.600 --> 00:09:52.600 is made up of three hundred and fifty million people. 156 00:09:53.039 --> 00:09:54.519 So I would like to point out you can get 157 00:09:54.559 --> 00:09:58.440 a slice of the population to show up at literally 158 00:09:58.519 --> 00:10:02.120 anything if you well, we have a well funded campaign 159 00:10:02.200 --> 00:10:06.440 to get the message out. A lot of folks angry 160 00:10:06.440 --> 00:10:14.799 out there. But are we going to have now professional 161 00:10:14.840 --> 00:10:18.399 details of security for each and every member of Congress? 162 00:10:19.840 --> 00:10:23.039 Are we going to pay for that as American taxpayers? 163 00:10:27.600 --> 00:10:32.559 And they're supposed to represent us? So I pivot over 164 00:10:32.600 --> 00:10:36.000 to Sarah Harringer, who obviously could have used her own 165 00:10:36.039 --> 00:10:39.159 security detail at her home and her husband got stabbed 166 00:10:39.159 --> 00:10:46.759 to death. She said independent data analysts that she's working 167 00:10:46.799 --> 00:10:54.480 with well showing what's real, pulling data directly from the 168 00:10:54.480 --> 00:11:01.399 Cincinnati Police Department records, calling the data staggering referring to 169 00:11:01.440 --> 00:11:04.039 members of since a city council and the mayor. They 170 00:11:04.080 --> 00:11:06.120 feel safe enough of their jobs, their beds, and their 171 00:11:06.159 --> 00:11:09.080 pr teams to lie to you because the optics matter 172 00:11:10.360 --> 00:11:15.360 more than outcomes. Let's talk about what the police union 173 00:11:15.399 --> 00:11:22.440 told me, Sarah Harringer departments on hundred eighty officers. Short 174 00:11:22.519 --> 00:11:25.039 city failed to hire a new police from eight twenty 175 00:11:25.120 --> 00:11:28.519 eight to twenty fourteen, and we're never and have never recovered. 176 00:11:28.879 --> 00:11:31.120 Leadership hasn't been able to recruit enough to keep up 177 00:11:31.159 --> 00:11:34.279 with retirement. We don't even have a full time swat 178 00:11:34.279 --> 00:11:40.120 team because someone's afraid it might look too militant. Officers 179 00:11:40.360 --> 00:11:44.279 often don't know when violent offenders are released. She knows 180 00:11:44.320 --> 00:11:47.960 first first hand on that one, doesn't She that communication 181 00:11:48.200 --> 00:11:51.279 used to exist. It doesn't now. Morale is low, support 182 00:11:51.320 --> 00:11:59.840 is lower, and politics are getting people killed, she says. 183 00:12:00.039 --> 00:12:00.720 Let me remind you. 184 00:12:00.840 --> 00:12:04.720 City council's funded public safety initiatives for years was zero accountability, 185 00:12:04.720 --> 00:12:07.879 no money spent, or rather money spent with no follow through, 186 00:12:07.879 --> 00:12:11.559 no proof of outcomes, just headlines and ribbon cuttings while 187 00:12:11.600 --> 00:12:20.600 the city bleeds out. My husband was one of them. 188 00:12:20.759 --> 00:12:24.080 And then she produces the statistics would show how bad 189 00:12:24.240 --> 00:12:28.120 crime actually is in the city based upon the Cincinnai 190 00:12:28.120 --> 00:12:36.279 Police Department records. Despite what you've been told, thirteen thousand 191 00:12:36.360 --> 00:12:39.759 victims in twenty twenty five and climbing, she writes a 192 00:12:39.840 --> 00:12:51.120 twenty five percent spike from twenty twenty four. It's a 193 00:12:51.200 --> 00:12:53.639 dangerous world out there. I guess this is my conclusion 194 00:12:53.679 --> 00:12:56.440 on all this. And who's entitled to security and protection 195 00:12:56.519 --> 00:12:59.600 and safety? Our elected officials are going to get their 196 00:12:59.600 --> 00:13:02.320 own already, details appears that we're moving in that direction 197 00:13:02.399 --> 00:13:06.360 after the murder of these Minnesota this Minnesota lawmaker and 198 00:13:07.039 --> 00:13:10.759 her husband. You can see that coming a mile away, 199 00:13:10.799 --> 00:13:16.360 can't you. Meanwhile, we will live through this whole defund 200 00:13:16.360 --> 00:13:20.480 police police are all bunch of evil, racist blah blah blah, 201 00:13:20.679 --> 00:13:27.799 and our communities become less safe. And you know, the 202 00:13:27.840 --> 00:13:34.039 practical reality is when seconds count, even in a fully funded, 203 00:13:34.120 --> 00:13:46.120 fully staffed police department, they're at least minutes away, which 204 00:13:46.399 --> 00:13:51.799 of course leads to the broader point. You need to 205 00:13:51.840 --> 00:13:55.000 protect your own You need to be in a position 206 00:13:55.159 --> 00:14:00.279 to protect yourself. You need to be less reliant on 207 00:14:00.600 --> 00:14:05.080 those in elected capacity to protect your interest in literally 208 00:14:05.720 --> 00:14:14.039 any topic. The dysfunction is on full display right now, folks. 209 00:14:14.600 --> 00:14:16.720 It's just one of the reasons I call myself a 210 00:14:16.720 --> 00:14:20.080 little little libertarian. I do not believe that others can 211 00:14:20.159 --> 00:14:24.120 protect me or can make decisions on my behalf that 212 00:14:24.200 --> 00:14:28.879 represent the best interests of myself or my family. Only 213 00:14:29.080 --> 00:14:34.519 I have enough information to make those decisions. Five nineteen 214 00:14:34.559 --> 00:14:36.320 fifty five cars to the talk station five point three, 215 00:14:36.360 --> 00:14:38.360 seven four nine fifty five eight hundred eight two to 216 00:14:38.360 --> 00:14:40.919 three Talk pound five fifty on AH and T phones. 217 00:14:40.919 --> 00:14:43.120 Feel free to call.

Be right back. 220 00:14:46.120 --> 00:14:50.240 Fifty five KARC. The talk station five cares to the 221 00:14:50.320 --> 00:14:53.360 talk vasas. That's what I. 222 00:14:57.039 --> 00:14:57.120 Know. 223 00:14:57.159 --> 00:15:02.039 It sounds stupid, Jones. Why I'm laughing. Just take that out. 224 00:15:04.159 --> 00:15:08.320 It's an admission that they have no idea, isn't it. Jay, 225 00:15:08.399 --> 00:15:10.320 Welcome to the morning show. In a very happy Monday 226 00:15:10.320 --> 00:15:12.480 to you, sir, Hey, good morning. 227 00:15:12.559 --> 00:15:12.720 Hey. 228 00:15:12.759 --> 00:15:14.879 I kind of feel bad about jumping line in front 229 00:15:14.879 --> 00:15:17.480 of Tom. I feel like Tom's my hero and I 230 00:15:17.480 --> 00:15:20.120 should be behind him in line. 231 00:15:20.159 --> 00:15:21.240 But I guess we'll take it. 232 00:15:21.519 --> 00:15:23.840 I'll take it. I enjoy hearing from you, Jay, go ahead. 233 00:15:25.120 --> 00:15:28.039 Hey, wanted to bring up the deal that's going on 234 00:15:28.120 --> 00:15:31.360 with US steel. I read last night that Trump was 235 00:15:31.399 --> 00:15:35.559 over in Western Pa, over in Pittsburgh, talking about that 236 00:15:36.519 --> 00:15:40.200 somehow this deal with US steel going to a Japanese 237 00:15:40.320 --> 00:15:44.919 steel producer or some sort of arrangement with Nippon Steel, 238 00:15:45.799 --> 00:15:50.600 that under what he's called national security, that the federal 239 00:15:50.639 --> 00:15:54.960 government will have a quote golden share of US steel 240 00:15:55.279 --> 00:15:57.720 in order to make sure that it doesn't leave the country. 241 00:15:58.399 --> 00:16:01.960 And I'm looking at this and it's I'm not for this. 242 00:16:02.120 --> 00:16:06.440 And here's why. Cleveland Cliff is a Cleveland based, highly 243 00:16:06.480 --> 00:16:10.279 successful steel producer that made an offer on US Steel 244 00:16:10.399 --> 00:16:13.159 back in August and gave them a offered forty five 245 00:16:13.200 --> 00:16:16.679 percent premium over their existing stock price current stock price, 246 00:16:17.399 --> 00:16:19.960 and it was turned down by US Steel, and it 247 00:16:20.039 --> 00:16:23.919 was called unreasonable by US Steel. So the Japanese steel 248 00:16:23.919 --> 00:16:27.360 producers came in. And now the federal government is stepping 249 00:16:27.399 --> 00:16:31.120 in under a quote conservative which I think there's an 250 00:16:31.159 --> 00:16:33.960 argument there to say, is a Trump really a conservative? 251 00:16:34.879 --> 00:16:39.159 And now the US taxpayer maybe getting drug into subsidies 252 00:16:39.200 --> 00:16:41.840 for a steel producer that could have sold to a 253 00:16:41.879 --> 00:16:45.679 different steel producer. And now we've got the federal government 254 00:16:45.879 --> 00:16:47.600 starting to control the means. 255 00:16:47.519 --> 00:16:52.159 Of production, anticipating my comment, Jay, you just stole my 256 00:16:52.240 --> 00:16:53.120 thunder right there. 257 00:16:53.919 --> 00:16:57.360 Yeah, this is how's how's this different than Beijing? How 258 00:16:57.480 --> 00:17:02.360 is moving towards communism, parting capitalism, free market economy and 259 00:17:02.360 --> 00:17:06.160 conservative principles. And we ought to be pretty concerned as 260 00:17:06.160 --> 00:17:10.079 we watch this as conservatives that we are, that this 261 00:17:10.119 --> 00:17:12.559 is not the small this is not the party a 262 00:17:12.599 --> 00:17:15.759 small government. Whenever the federal government can just throw down 263 00:17:15.759 --> 00:17:19.359 the flag on the field and say national security, we're 264 00:17:19.359 --> 00:17:21.279 going to get involved in. When I read this morning, 265 00:17:21.319 --> 00:17:24.960 he's talking about he'll have he Trump will have the 266 00:17:25.000 --> 00:17:28.440 control to say where this is going to be produced, 267 00:17:29.000 --> 00:17:31.279 what the name of it's going to be. He's going 268 00:17:31.319 --> 00:17:36.160 to point board holders or board members and appoint three 269 00:17:36.200 --> 00:17:38.240 of them that it can out rank the two that 270 00:17:38.319 --> 00:17:42.400 are there. Uh. Hey, if this is good for steel production, 271 00:17:42.480 --> 00:17:46.400 why stop there. Let's get involved in control healthcare, We'll 272 00:17:46.440 --> 00:17:51.079 control auto production. Um, we'll control everything. If if this 273 00:17:51.160 --> 00:17:52.960 is good for one thing, then I guess it's good 274 00:17:53.000 --> 00:17:55.279 for all things. And we are no different and we're 275 00:17:55.279 --> 00:17:57.799 gonna we're gonna quickly get to where Beijing is. 276 00:17:59.279 --> 00:18:01.680 Well, you can't call looking for an argument, Jay, I 277 00:18:01.720 --> 00:18:03.640 know I used that phrase quite often, but I'm with 278 00:18:03.680 --> 00:18:07.359 you one hundred percent. Yeah, it's not a question whose 279 00:18:07.400 --> 00:18:10.279 ox is being Gord. I know he is enjoying support 280 00:18:10.319 --> 00:18:14.160 from unions. But see, here's the reason. You have to 281 00:18:14.240 --> 00:18:18.440 compromise principles in order to help particular industries. And I 282 00:18:18.519 --> 00:18:22.240 note you know kind of a parallel that that Trump 283 00:18:22.359 --> 00:18:27.240 is deciding that maybe ICE shouldn't be going after certain 284 00:18:27.319 --> 00:18:31.319 industries like farms and meatpacking plants, hotels and restaurants to 285 00:18:31.400 --> 00:18:36.599 ferret out illegal immigrants. Why, well, he's concerned the industry 286 00:18:36.599 --> 00:18:39.920 would collapse without the employment of illegal immigrants in those 287 00:18:39.920 --> 00:18:44.960 particular industries. So pick and shoes, Pick and shoes, and 288 00:18:45.000 --> 00:18:49.359 in any case, it's all wrong. Excellent point, Jay, I'm 289 00:18:49.359 --> 00:18:51.200 glad you called and raised it. I don't think he 290 00:18:51.279 --> 00:18:54.319 necessarily still Tom's thunder. He may go in a different 291 00:18:54.359 --> 00:18:58.079 direction if he calls this morning, but it's an excellent point. 292 00:18:58.079 --> 00:19:01.279 Five twenty seven fifty five cares B Talk station. Feel 293 00:19:01.319 --> 00:19:04.200 free to chime in on the topic or others five one, three, seven, four, nine, 294 00:19:04.279 --> 00:19:07.720 fifty eight two to three talk otherwise Local stories coming 295 00:19:07.799 --> 00:19:08.200 up next. 296 00:19:08.559 --> 00:19:12.240 This is fifty five krc AN iHeartRadio station. 297 00:19:13.079 --> 00:19:17.720 Reds Jen and I first one on the forecast, partly 298 00:19:17.720 --> 00:19:20.440 cloudy day to day, chance of storms later this afternoon. 299 00:19:20.519 --> 00:19:23.319 I have eighty three partly cloudy overnight slight chance of 300 00:19:23.400 --> 00:19:27.039 showers in the wall of sixty five, some sun on Tuesday, 301 00:19:28.920 --> 00:19:34.400 maybe storms.

All right, unsettled weather throughout the 307 00:19:57.359 --> 00:20:07.400 week has now been stricken from the weather forecast.

And you're you're right on that, without question. 341 00:21:40.240 --> 00:21:43.559 Yeah, yeah, se Uh the car she gave me and said, 342 00:21:44.759 --> 00:21:46.759 I love the fact that we don't have to say 343 00:21:46.759 --> 00:21:53.920 out loud that I'm your favorite child. Why why do 344 00:21:53.960 --> 00:21:55.319 you keep saying it out loud? 345 00:21:55.680 --> 00:21:58.400 That's great, that's great. 346 00:21:58.480 --> 00:22:02.640 Yeah, yeah, good time. And for Saturday, you know, being flagged. 347 00:22:02.799 --> 00:22:04.799 I just want to confirm, uh. 348 00:22:04.720 --> 00:22:07.839 That is the American flag we were celebrating, right, stars 349 00:22:07.960 --> 00:22:12.039 is right, not some of the other flags that we 350 00:22:12.119 --> 00:22:17.079 have seen waving at different rallies and protests and stuff. 351 00:22:17.200 --> 00:22:17.880 That is correct. 352 00:22:18.839 --> 00:22:22.079 I have no problem with people being proud of their heritage. 353 00:22:23.359 --> 00:22:23.640 Great. 354 00:22:24.480 --> 00:22:28.880 I know I've got some some different heritage from uh. 355 00:22:29.200 --> 00:22:32.880 I mean, I'm born here when many generations of my 356 00:22:33.000 --> 00:22:35.440 family were born here. But you know, that's that's fine. 357 00:22:35.519 --> 00:22:39.079 You know, let's let's let's celebrate some German heritage or 358 00:22:39.599 --> 00:22:43.720 or whatever. But you live in the United States of America, 359 00:22:44.640 --> 00:22:48.279 you should assimilate to the way of life here. Doesn't 360 00:22:48.279 --> 00:22:50.920 mean everybody has to do the same thing, but there 361 00:22:50.960 --> 00:22:54.440 are definitely certain things that we all need to embrace 362 00:22:55.039 --> 00:23:00.319 as reality. And it's it's just a shame that too 363 00:23:00.319 --> 00:23:03.680 many people trying to get rid of some of these things. 364 00:23:03.720 --> 00:23:06.799 And it's intentional. They're they're trying to bring about their 365 00:23:06.799 --> 00:23:10.559 own kind of society and they want certain things to 366 00:23:10.640 --> 00:23:14.200 go a certain way so they can have power and control. 367 00:23:14.519 --> 00:23:18.039 And the American way is it's very strong, but at 368 00:23:18.079 --> 00:23:21.559 the same time, it's it's very fragile and you know 369 00:23:22.400 --> 00:23:25.000 Reagan was right.

It's just 439 00:27:27.279 --> 00:27:32.119 like a natural reaction. But to children throwing and having disagreement, hey, 440 00:27:32.319 --> 00:27:36.720 let's get in the car run them over. She told 441 00:27:36.720 --> 00:27:39.680 police she confronted the group and they called her a slur, 442 00:27:39.880 --> 00:27:41.960 so she grabbed one of the boy and told him 443 00:27:41.960 --> 00:27:44.240 not to call her that that would be the grabbing 444 00:27:44.319 --> 00:27:46.359 him by the head and yanking his head back and forth. 445 00:27:46.400 --> 00:27:47.880 It was described any complaint. 446 00:27:49.319 --> 00:27:51.839 She did admit to getting a stick and walking toward 447 00:27:51.880 --> 00:27:53.960 another boy who called her a slur, but claims she 448 00:27:54.039 --> 00:27:59.799 never threatened him. Police said, got you admitted of putting 449 00:27:59.839 --> 00:28:05.400 her truck quote aggressively into reverse and then in drive 450 00:28:05.559 --> 00:28:09.440 before going through the park.

Yeah, 452 00:28:15.839 --> 00:28:18.160 that would be the feeling as though you're driving over 453 00:28:18.240 --> 00:28:23.480 a speed bump. Yeah, that was the little girl's legs. 454 00:28:24.519 --> 00:28:26.839 She claimed her children being bullied by the group of 455 00:28:26.920 --> 00:28:29.119 kids and had reported it to the school and police, 456 00:28:29.119 --> 00:28:32.559 but she claimed no action was taken. Charge of three 457 00:28:32.599 --> 00:28:35.519 counts of evaggravated assault. According to the attorney, this could 458 00:28:35.559 --> 00:28:38.680 have been much more trades of situation.

I don't 559 00:34:57.599 --> 00:35:06.320 think that's an accident. Special place in Hell for people 560 00:35:06.400 --> 00:35:06.639 like that. 561 00:35:08.519 --> 00:35:08.960 Here you go. 562 00:35:11.480 --> 00:35:18.920 Described as an eccentric name, taking eccentric names to the 563 00:35:18.960 --> 00:35:23.000 next level and resulting in what is described as relentless 564 00:35:23.119 --> 00:35:30.880 mocking on the internet. The baby's name in the announcement 565 00:35:31.719 --> 00:35:43.199 chernyobyl Hope. What friend of the infant's mom or dad 566 00:35:43.280 --> 00:35:47.800 or both of them posted on the Internet, and many 567 00:35:47.840 --> 00:35:51.000 of which are calling it offensive and ridiculous. Baby Shower, 568 00:35:51.119 --> 00:35:54.320 Join us to celebrate the upcoming arrival of a little 569 00:35:54.400 --> 00:36:00.559 bundle of joy in honor of Chernyobyl Hope, Wait to 570 00:36:00.599 --> 00:36:06.960 celebrate together, according to the online invitation, and according to 571 00:36:06.960 --> 00:36:09.480 the article, it appeared as if the parents were unaware 572 00:36:09.480 --> 00:36:16.000 of the nineteen eighty six nuclear disaster in Chernobyl, Ukraine. Whatever, 573 00:36:16.360 --> 00:36:23.800 thank you, Liam. That's enough of that one. And finally 574 00:36:23.920 --> 00:36:26.840 we get local news. Brood fourteen out at about a Mason, 575 00:36:26.880 --> 00:36:29.039 Ohio bringing some uninvited guests in one of the tri 576 00:36:29.079 --> 00:36:34.039 States' biggest attractions, King's Island. Yes, they have cicadas in 577 00:36:34.239 --> 00:36:39.079 King's Island. They're everywhere, and they're actually kind of dying 578 00:36:39.159 --> 00:36:45.719 off now, Brood fourteen. Doctor Gene Kritsky from Mount Saint 579 00:36:45.800 --> 00:36:49.159 Joe University said this brood BREWD fourteen first seen by 580 00:36:49.199 --> 00:36:51.679 the Pilgrims in sixteen thirty four. There's a little bit 581 00:36:51.679 --> 00:36:54.039 of American history involved with this particular Brood. 582 00:36:55.400 --> 00:36:55.639 Said. 583 00:36:55.639 --> 00:36:57.559 They've been emerging a little later than we expected in 584 00:36:57.559 --> 00:37:00.840 some places. Batavia just had an emergence last week, whereas 585 00:37:00.880 --> 00:37:03.440 in Loveland they started two weeks ago. It seems like 586 00:37:03.440 --> 00:37:05.280 a lot longer than that'd, be quite honest with you. 587 00:37:06.559 --> 00:37:09.280 Over the weekend, several people shared their experience in TikTok 588 00:37:09.360 --> 00:37:18.199 of cicadas at King's Island, telling people to keep their 589 00:37:18.239 --> 00:37:22.159 mouths shut while enjoying the rides. Kritsky said, just enjoy 590 00:37:22.199 --> 00:37:25.559 the cicadas, and while you're on the ride, keep your 591 00:37:25.639 --> 00:37:27.239 mouth closed. 592 00:37:27.239 --> 00:37:31.400 Keep your stupid mouth shut. 593 00:37:32.440 --> 00:37:35.599 Yeah, I saw an article last week there was an 594 00:37:35.599 --> 00:37:38.639 autobile accident because a cicada flew in the window of 595 00:37:38.679 --> 00:37:41.760 an automobile. They don't bite, they don't sting, they don't 596 00:37:41.760 --> 00:37:44.760 do anything. Really, They're just annoying. And yes, when you're 597 00:37:44.760 --> 00:37:46.639 cutting the grass, they will definitely hit you right on 598 00:37:46.679 --> 00:37:49.599 your T shirt. And I thought it was particularly comical. 599 00:37:49.639 --> 00:37:51.880 I was enjoying my father's day. My daughter came over 600 00:37:51.920 --> 00:37:55.079 and they have eleven chickens. She went around the yard 601 00:37:55.280 --> 00:37:59.199 collecting cicadas in a plastic bag to take home to 602 00:37:59.320 --> 00:38:02.480 feed the chickens, because they don't have cicadas ever in 603 00:38:02.519 --> 00:38:03.880 our neighborhood. 604 00:38:04.840 --> 00:38:05.280 Anyway. 605 00:38:05.760 --> 00:38:07.840 Five fifty six fifty five KR see the talk station 606 00:38:07.960 --> 00:38:10.000 plenty coming up in the six o'clock hour, and I 607 00:38:10.000 --> 00:38:12.119 of course enjoy hearing from you, so please feel free 608 00:38:12.159 --> 00:38:12.960 to call hang around. 609 00:38:12.960 --> 00:38:15.480 I'll be right back at the top of the hour. 610 00:38:15.639 --> 00:38:18.760 Every day we discover something new and important. 611 00:38:18.440 --> 00:38:21.679 The day's top stories on fifty five KRS. 612 00:38:22.239 --> 00:38:25.880 The talk station the Claremont County veteran five or fifty 613 00:38:25.880 --> 00:38:28.880 five air CD talk station Brian Thomas were right here, 614 00:38:32.199 --> 00:38:33.960 fire on half of the cylinders this morning. 615 00:38:34.000 --> 00:38:35.199 At least that's the way I feel. 616 00:38:35.639 --> 00:38:37.480 Anyway, I hope you had a wonderful Father's Day For 617 00:38:37.519 --> 00:38:39.280 all the dads out there, God bless each and every 618 00:38:39.280 --> 00:38:40.960 one of you.

I 621 00:38:46.679 --> 00:38:49.719 certainly miss him, and I know there's a lot of 622 00:38:49.760 --> 00:38:51.880 folks out there that missed their fathers as well. At 623 00:38:51.960 --> 00:38:54.320 least we had them, and you miss them because they 624 00:38:54.360 --> 00:38:57.280 had a profound impact on your life.

Dave had always a 630 00:39:09.280 --> 00:39:11.119 very important segment, Scare the hell out if you, at 631 00:39:11.199 --> 00:39:13.880 least it should and you should take Dave's advice. Love 632 00:39:13.920 --> 00:39:17.400 having him on the show every Friday. Among other podcasts, 633 00:39:17.440 --> 00:39:20.119 are there coming up in the fifty five cares in 634 00:39:20.159 --> 00:39:22.639 Morning Shore This Morning Course, It's Monday. Christopher Smithman joins 635 00:39:22.639 --> 00:39:24.760 a program former vice mayor of the City of Cincinnati, 636 00:39:24.840 --> 00:39:27.719 every Monday at seven twenty. Talk with him for a 637 00:39:27.760 --> 00:39:32.280 few segments and he will probably have something to rant about. 638 00:39:33.000 --> 00:39:33.559 Monday Monday. 639 00:39:33.559 --> 00:39:35.960 Brian James talk futures, We'll talk price of oil, We'll 640 00:39:36.000 --> 00:39:38.840 talk to federal interest rate announcement, and a record number 641 00:39:38.840 --> 00:39:41.519 of people claiming Social Security, which come as no surprise 642 00:39:41.559 --> 00:39:43.480 to me, and given the baby boomers are all retiring 643 00:39:43.840 --> 00:39:46.480 and this Sincinnyva joins the program with tail end of 644 00:39:46.519 --> 00:39:49.039 the eight o'clock hour. Got some updates from my veteran 645 00:39:49.039 --> 00:39:52.760 friends in the listening audience. Turning to the comments and 646 00:39:53.079 --> 00:39:55.960 brilliant observations of Alyssa Finley over the Wall Street Journal, 647 00:39:56.000 --> 00:39:57.360 you know I do this. I stand on the sholder 648 00:39:57.360 --> 00:39:59.840 of giants from time to time, and with good reason 649 00:40:02.039 --> 00:40:06.079 and some really well thought out comments. She has in 650 00:40:06.119 --> 00:40:10.000 her column how progressive government set the stage for the 651 00:40:10.159 --> 00:40:14.880 la riots. Now go back to the Saturday night before 652 00:40:15.119 --> 00:40:19.840 Memorial Day and she writes, more than a thousand revelers 653 00:40:19.880 --> 00:40:22.559 took over an abandoned warehouse just south of downtown Los Angeles. 654 00:40:22.599 --> 00:40:24.480 When police tried to break up the illegal party, the 655 00:40:24.519 --> 00:40:29.760 troublemakers spilled into the streets and spray painted graffiti on businesses, 656 00:40:29.880 --> 00:40:35.920 police cars, and light rail trains. As police attempted to 657 00:40:36.039 --> 00:40:39.960 restore order, the delinquents turned violent. Police and riot gear 658 00:40:39.960 --> 00:40:43.239 eventually moved in and fired rubber bullets to disperse the mob, 659 00:40:43.320 --> 00:40:47.480 though no arrests were made. Court to Americ Karen Bass, 660 00:40:47.800 --> 00:40:52.360 it was just pandemodium. Everybody just you know, went bisark. 661 00:40:52.679 --> 00:40:56.239 We cannot do this in our city and it has 662 00:40:56.320 --> 00:41:02.800 to be stopped, Karen Bass, pro law and order. Two 663 00:41:02.880 --> 00:41:07.599 weeks later, pandemonium broke out again as agitators used the 664 00:41:07.679 --> 00:41:16.079 cover of protest against ICE and the raids to create mayhem. 665 00:41:16.199 --> 00:41:21.320 Mayor Baths tweeted we will not stand for this. This 666 00:41:21.360 --> 00:41:24.880 was the afternoon of June sixth, this time referring to 667 00:41:24.960 --> 00:41:30.760 the ICE raids as opposed to the pandemonium. Ruffians then 668 00:41:30.840 --> 00:41:35.519 grew more aggressive, vandalizing federal buildings and assaulting ICE officers. 669 00:41:37.199 --> 00:41:39.840 Local police took nearly an hour that evening to respond 670 00:41:39.880 --> 00:41:43.280 to a call for help by officers under attack. That 671 00:41:43.360 --> 00:41:47.039 will be Ice, saying local law enforcement. Please come help us. 672 00:41:47.079 --> 00:41:52.599 We're being attacked as demonstrations spread on Saturday, I'll be 673 00:41:52.760 --> 00:41:56.119 less violently than the day before. President Trump federalized the 674 00:41:56.199 --> 00:42:01.760 California National Guard to protect federal property and personnel, not 675 00:42:02.199 --> 00:42:07.000 enforced local law, but to protect the ice agents and 676 00:42:07.119 --> 00:42:12.840 federal property. You can understand why Governor Gavin Newsom would 677 00:42:12.880 --> 00:42:15.599 be picked by the President's assertion that the state and 678 00:42:15.679 --> 00:42:19.920 city couldn't be trusted to protect peace. It's human nature 679 00:42:20.079 --> 00:42:23.519 to take more offense at slights grounded in truth than 680 00:42:23.559 --> 00:42:27.880 those that aren't. Mister Newsom accused Trump of inflaming a 681 00:42:28.000 --> 00:42:35.519 combustible situation. Why was the city prone to ignite a 682 00:42:35.639 --> 00:42:43.199 lessa asks because progressive government policies, which ironically harm immigrants 683 00:42:43.320 --> 00:42:47.800 most of all, created a tinderbox. If mister Newsom and 684 00:42:47.880 --> 00:42:50.559 his bast cared for about the welfare of the immigrants, 685 00:42:50.559 --> 00:42:55.159 they'd clean up Los Angeles lawless streets, fix its atrocious 686 00:42:55.280 --> 00:42:59.480 public schools, and stop their assistance or assault rather on businesses. 687 00:43:00.440 --> 00:43:05.280 Start with public safety. Los Angeles Police Department has about 688 00:43:05.360 --> 00:43:10.360 thirteen hundred fewer officers than a decade ago, at about 689 00:43:10.400 --> 00:43:14.599 half as many per capita and nearly ninety percent fewer 690 00:43:14.639 --> 00:43:18.199 per square mile than New York City. You know, as 691 00:43:18.239 --> 00:43:20.079 I read that, initially, I was thinking about the city 692 00:43:20.079 --> 00:43:22.920 of Cincinnati. We're down on officers in terms of members 693 00:43:23.000 --> 00:43:26.880 of officers on patrol as opposed to those in administrative 694 00:43:26.880 --> 00:43:29.880 capacities or doing work behind the scenes. There are hardly 695 00:43:29.880 --> 00:43:38.360 any officers in any given neighborhood welcome to defund the police, 696 00:43:39.039 --> 00:43:42.079 she writes. An overstretched police force almost certainly explains why 697 00:43:42.079 --> 00:43:44.360 I took officers so long to respond to the call 698 00:43:44.400 --> 00:43:51.440 from Ice. Officers blame city leaders. The mayor of this 699 00:43:51.480 --> 00:43:56.079 spring proposed eliminating another four hundred police positions to close 700 00:43:56.119 --> 00:44:00.920 the city's eight hundred million dollar budget hole caused by 701 00:44:01.079 --> 00:44:05.480 ballooning pension costs and lawsuit payouts. The LAPD has struggled 702 00:44:05.519 --> 00:44:09.039 with low morale and recruitment owing to lax enforcement policy 703 00:44:09.119 --> 00:44:11.760 to let lawbreakers run free. That sounds a little bit 704 00:44:11.840 --> 00:44:16.599 like the City of Cincinnati to you. Crimes such as shoplifting, vandalism, 705 00:44:16.639 --> 00:44:20.519 disorderly conduct, and trespassing are rarely prosecuted. How many of 706 00:44:20.519 --> 00:44:24.000 the rioters have a history of looting businesses and vandalizing 707 00:44:24.079 --> 00:44:31.440 buildings With impunity, the police recruiting pool has also shrunk 708 00:44:31.440 --> 00:44:37.280 alongside LA's working class, as blue collar families leave for 709 00:44:37.400 --> 00:44:40.239 locales with better schools and lower cost of living. Los 710 00:44:40.280 --> 00:44:44.239 Angeles County HA has lost some one point four million 711 00:44:44.400 --> 00:44:50.119 people due to domestic out migration since twenty ten, which 712 00:44:52.119 --> 00:44:57.519 parenthetically has been offset in part by an influx of 713 00:44:57.639 --> 00:45:05.920 five hundred and thirty thousand presumably illegal immigrants, but many 714 00:45:05.960 --> 00:45:09.760 of those immigrants lack the qualifications high school diploma and 715 00:45:09.880 --> 00:45:13.360 legal authorization to work to serve in the city's police force. 716 00:45:14.760 --> 00:45:18.400 Many immigrants find work as day laborers, bus boys, or stockhands, 717 00:45:18.480 --> 00:45:22.320 but high minimum wages are pricing unskilled workers out of jobs, 718 00:45:22.679 --> 00:45:26.760 to the detriment of immigrants, young people, and public safety. 719 00:45:27.559 --> 00:45:30.360 Minimum wage in LA seventeen dollars and twenty eight cents. 720 00:45:30.360 --> 00:45:33.159 The state requires fast food restaurants to pay twenty dollars 721 00:45:33.199 --> 00:45:38.679 an hour. The Employment Policies Institute's Michael Saltzman calculates the 722 00:45:38.760 --> 00:45:42.280 California's unemployment rate for teens with twenty one point two 723 00:45:42.360 --> 00:45:46.039 percent in April, double the nationwide figure, and nine point 724 00:45:46.159 --> 00:45:49.920 seven percent for adults twenty to twenty four versus only 725 00:45:50.000 --> 00:45:52.639 seven point two on average for the rest of the country. 726 00:45:53.000 --> 00:45:56.280 How many of the rioters were unemployed or underemployed. Young 727 00:45:56.320 --> 00:46:05.280 people have been failed by the city's union controlled public schools. 728 00:46:05.320 --> 00:46:09.199 Nearly a third of students in this is insanity. Nearly 729 00:46:09.239 --> 00:46:13.960 a third of students in the Los Angeles Unified School 730 00:46:14.000 --> 00:46:18.280 District last year last school year were chronically absent, which 731 00:46:18.320 --> 00:46:22.920 is missing one in ten school days or more, from 732 00:46:22.960 --> 00:46:30.559 ten percent in twenty eighteen. A third worse, Only twenty 733 00:46:30.559 --> 00:46:35.719 one percent of the city's eighth graders scored proficient or 734 00:46:35.800 --> 00:46:40.079 higher in reading last year in the nation's report Card, 735 00:46:40.719 --> 00:46:43.079 only nineteen percent in math. 736 00:46:44.599 --> 00:46:45.760 Let that sink in. 737 00:46:49.159 --> 00:46:55.760 Twenty one percent proficient or higher, nineteen percent proficient or 738 00:46:55.800 --> 00:47:02.159 higher in math, and sadly, the scores were lower among Hispanics, 739 00:47:02.159 --> 00:47:09.159 who make up three quarters of the students. Parents are 740 00:47:09.159 --> 00:47:13.480 expressing their displeasure with the schools by moving, causing district 741 00:47:13.559 --> 00:47:18.199 enrollment to fall by a third since twenty ten. While 742 00:47:18.239 --> 00:47:22.280 Los Angeles County's population has declined by about sixty thousand 743 00:47:22.400 --> 00:47:25.599 since twenty ten, the number under eighteen has plunged by 744 00:47:25.800 --> 00:47:30.199 five hundred thousand, according to the Census Bureau data. Population 745 00:47:30.440 --> 00:47:35.440 flight presents a problem for LA's profligate politicians because federal 746 00:47:35.480 --> 00:47:39.119 funding for schools and sundry programs is based on population. 747 00:47:39.920 --> 00:47:43.840 I wonder why they're protesting the deportation of illegal immigrants. 748 00:47:44.119 --> 00:47:47.599 I mean, you know, she she sort of presents the 749 00:47:47.639 --> 00:47:52.480 obvious here, doesn't she? Oh my god, everyone's fleeing California. 750 00:47:52.519 --> 00:47:54.639 We need to replace our population. How the hell are 751 00:47:54.599 --> 00:47:56.599 we going to do with that? Open the borders up, 752 00:47:56.639 --> 00:47:59.800 and then protest deporting illegal immigrants, many of whom are 753 00:48:00.000 --> 00:48:03.400 island criminals. We need the numbers. We can't keep our 754 00:48:03.440 --> 00:48:07.679 own people here, the nation, citizenry, the legal people, people 755 00:48:07.719 --> 00:48:10.320 born here in the United States, people who are validly 756 00:48:10.360 --> 00:48:14.920 in our country. Don't want to live in California anymore. 757 00:48:15.760 --> 00:48:18.239 Let's give them all free stuff and things in order 758 00:48:18.280 --> 00:48:21.320 to lure them here and take over our communities. And 759 00:48:21.360 --> 00:48:24.679 then we'll scream and yelling riot in the streets when 760 00:48:24.960 --> 00:48:32.639 Immigrations and Customs Enforcement seeks to enforce the law. That 761 00:48:32.679 --> 00:48:37.920 would be me interjecting over Elisa Finley's interesting and wonderful 762 00:48:38.000 --> 00:48:42.400 comments here, she concludes, a cynic might wonder if the 763 00:48:42.480 --> 00:48:46.679 underlying goal of LA's sanctuary policy, which prohibits local law 764 00:48:46.760 --> 00:48:50.519 enforcement from cooperating with federal federal immigration enforcement is to 765 00:48:50.559 --> 00:48:54.480 boost population in federal funding. Huh, a cynic might wonder, 766 00:48:55.400 --> 00:48:58.360 No matter that immigrants are often victims of the criminal aliens, 767 00:48:58.360 --> 00:49:01.159 the cities shields from deportation, and there'll be the criminals 768 00:49:01.159 --> 00:49:03.760 of Donald Trump seeking to prioritize in terms of removing 769 00:49:03.800 --> 00:49:08.280 from our country, the vile, evil criminals, the rapists, the murderers, 770 00:49:08.320 --> 00:49:10.280 those that shouldn't have stepped foot in our country in 771 00:49:10.320 --> 00:49:16.199 the first instance. She concludes, mister Trump's raids may be 772 00:49:16.320 --> 00:49:20.519 unduly harsh, but democratic policies are cruel to immigrants in 773 00:49:20.559 --> 00:49:29.119 many other ways.

Springing from the 803 00:51:02.519 --> 00:51:05.920 comments of Alicia Finley in that op ed piece, the 804 00:51:06.039 --> 00:51:09.880 House of cards. It is California's entire economy, I suppose, 805 00:51:09.920 --> 00:51:13.000 predicated and built on illegal immigrants, and you deport them 806 00:51:13.039 --> 00:51:23.239 and the whole thing falls apart. Mayor Karen Bass complaining 807 00:51:23.280 --> 00:51:27.800 to President Trump about the financial cost of sending ICE 808 00:51:27.880 --> 00:51:35.599 agents into the jurisdiction. She is concerned about the expenditure 809 00:51:35.800 --> 00:51:41.639 of taxpayer dollars for ice agents. I'm concerned about the 810 00:51:41.639 --> 00:51:44.800 expenditure of taxpayer dollars on like a multitude of things, 811 00:51:45.280 --> 00:51:51.519 but on X she posted just an absolute shameful use 812 00:51:51.639 --> 00:52:01.639 of taxpayer dollars that could be used to actually help people. Despicable. 813 00:52:05.000 --> 00:52:12.079 That's the post help people. I guess you left to 814 00:52:12.119 --> 00:52:13.639 fill in the blanks on that one. It's like my 815 00:52:13.880 --> 00:52:16.400 puzzling over the No Kings rally over the weekend. What 816 00:52:16.480 --> 00:52:23.559 were you there protesting? We're protesting the enforcement of immigration law. 817 00:52:23.639 --> 00:52:27.239 You're protesting Donald Trump as a concept, as a human being, 818 00:52:28.039 --> 00:52:31.719 Trump arrangement, so syndrome, Trump living rent free in your head, 819 00:52:31.760 --> 00:52:34.039 prompting you to go out on a beautiful Saturday to 820 00:52:34.079 --> 00:52:42.199 protest for what reason. For his part, Governor Gavitussm with 821 00:52:42.280 --> 00:52:45.000 his own post on X one hundred and thirty four 822 00:52:45.119 --> 00:52:48.360 million dollars. Are you ready for this? That should be 823 00:52:48.440 --> 00:52:54.320 going to Los Angeles' fire recovery, ah, because of your 824 00:52:54.760 --> 00:52:57.960 incompetence and the mayor's incompetence, and your refusal to clean 825 00:52:58.039 --> 00:53:00.880 up brush and otherwise take care of the various forests 826 00:53:00.920 --> 00:53:04.159 around the region, allowing your infrastructure to collapse, allowing the 827 00:53:05.119 --> 00:53:09.119 electric transmission lines to spark fires. All of that we're 828 00:53:09.159 --> 00:53:11.800 supposed to pay for it, And the money allocated for 829 00:53:11.880 --> 00:53:15.920 ice and customs and immigration enforcement should go to you. 830 00:53:19.239 --> 00:53:19.760 Interesting. 831 00:53:22.320 --> 00:53:24.880 I guess that's what Bass meant by helping people help 832 00:53:25.000 --> 00:53:30.920 Los Angelinos deal with the with the with rebuilding. Social 833 00:53:30.960 --> 00:53:39.719 media blew up over Newsom and Bass posts White House 834 00:53:39.880 --> 00:53:44.840 Deputy chiefs of Staff for Policies Stefan Miller, wait till 835 00:53:44.840 --> 00:53:47.199 you find out how many trillions we have spent on 836 00:53:47.400 --> 00:53:53.719 illegal immigrants. Another post by campaign strategiest Andrew Clark, Now, 837 00:53:53.760 --> 00:53:57.079 do the nine billion dollars you drained out of our 838 00:53:57.159 --> 00:54:00.519 state treasury to fund your free health care for illegal 839 00:54:00.559 --> 00:54:05.000 immigrants scheme? Real money, real dollars. Recent studies reviewed by 840 00:54:05.039 --> 00:54:09.719 Fox News Digital show that California spends at least tens 841 00:54:09.760 --> 00:54:13.440 of billions on illegal immigrants every year. Far more than 842 00:54:13.480 --> 00:54:16.280 the one hundred and thirty four million dollar costs sending 843 00:54:16.320 --> 00:54:20.239 in troops to respond to the rioting. Now that was 844 00:54:20.239 --> 00:54:22.280 really what the point was a National guard sent in 845 00:54:22.360 --> 00:54:24.840 because the local law enforce it wouldn't protect ice from 846 00:54:24.880 --> 00:54:28.920 criminal actions, it wouldn't protect federal property. So somebody's got 847 00:54:28.920 --> 00:54:31.199 to spend some money to bring about law and order, 848 00:54:31.199 --> 00:54:36.159 at least in so far as protecting federal assets are concerned. Meanwhile, 849 00:54:36.800 --> 00:54:39.920 the predicate for all this, the illegal immigrants and notably 850 00:54:39.960 --> 00:54:43.719 the criminal element among them, are the purpose and reason 851 00:54:43.800 --> 00:54:48.800 that all this kind of came unglued. Federation of Army 852 00:54:48.840 --> 00:54:55.199 Immigration Reform fare cost analysis promoted by the House Budget 853 00:54:55.199 --> 00:54:57.599 Committee back in twenty twenty three in a press release, 854 00:54:57.639 --> 00:55:01.320 found that benefits and services provided illegal alliens in California 855 00:55:01.400 --> 00:55:06.760 alone in calendar year twenty twenty two more than twenty 856 00:55:06.960 --> 00:55:10.960 two billion dollars, and a more recent cost analysis fair 857 00:55:11.000 --> 00:55:15.280 calculated the services for illegal immigrants cost California taxpayers thirty 858 00:55:15.400 --> 00:55:25.559 one billion dollars annually, incarceration costs for illegal immigrants going 859 00:55:25.599 --> 00:55:29.039 through the court process and being housed in jail two 860 00:55:29.679 --> 00:55:33.320 billion dollars annually. That's a twenty nineteen study. You can 861 00:55:33.320 --> 00:55:37.480 only imagine that's gone through the roof. Governor k Newsom 862 00:55:37.559 --> 00:55:40.039 earlier this year asked for an additional two point eight 863 00:55:40.280 --> 00:55:44.639 billion dollars in loans to address the state's deficit in 864 00:55:44.679 --> 00:55:51.039 the medicaid program, which has blown through budget expectations, largely 865 00:55:51.159 --> 00:55:56.480 due to you know what's coming, coverage for illegal immigrants, 866 00:55:57.159 --> 00:56:05.239 and the figures just continue. All these expanding programs obviously 867 00:56:05.280 --> 00:56:08.280 act as lures for the illegal immigrant population. Let's go 868 00:56:08.320 --> 00:56:12.719 to sanctuary state California, where we can enjoy medicaid at 869 00:56:12.719 --> 00:56:19.280 no cost to us, among other things, all for the 870 00:56:19.280 --> 00:56:23.760 purpose of California trying to keep that house of cards 871 00:56:23.760 --> 00:56:27.840 from falling over and collapsing.

Get your images at affordable imaging 873 00:56:31.079 --> 00:56:34.239 services where you will not pay literally thousands of dollars 874 00:56:34.320 --> 00:56:37.920 for echo cardiogram mri CT scanner, ultrasound. That's what you'll 875 00:56:37.960 --> 00:56:40.880 pay at hospitals, and they'll probably make you wait around. 876 00:56:40.920 --> 00:56:42.440 And if you get your doctor says you need an 877 00:56:42.440 --> 00:56:44.320 echo cardiogram, we're probably like, oh my god, this is 878 00:56:44.360 --> 00:56:46.320 my heart and wait around for three weeks, maybe a 879 00:56:46.320 --> 00:56:48.320 month to get to the hospital.

They're four hundred and fifty bucks 886 00:57:09.760 --> 00:57:13.400 without a contrast. I needed a contrast six hundred dollars 887 00:57:14.719 --> 00:57:17.199 radiologist report.

I know none of my physicians have had 890 00:57:21.039 --> 00:57:23.159 a problem with the images I've gotten. There, same kind 891 00:57:23.199 --> 00:57:26.360 of equipment hospitals use.

I was watching the news over the weekend 906 00:58:03.800 --> 00:58:07.880 and they were talking about upcoming Juneteenth celebrations. Yeah, and 907 00:58:07.960 --> 00:58:10.840 I know a lot of conservatives tend to lean towards 908 00:58:10.880 --> 00:58:14.679 that as being sort of an appeasement type holiday. But 909 00:58:14.760 --> 00:58:17.679 you're looking at it all wrong. This is I take 910 00:58:17.760 --> 00:58:21.280 great pleasure in pointing out the people that it's the 911 00:58:21.360 --> 00:58:25.000 celebration of the last of the slaves finding out that 912 00:58:25.079 --> 00:58:27.960 they'd been freed from the Democrats by Republicans. 913 00:58:28.079 --> 00:58:29.000 Yeah. 914 00:58:29.199 --> 00:58:31.639 Now, you know what, It wouldn't shock me if Christopher 915 00:58:31.639 --> 00:58:35.639 Sprithman brings that up, because he has talked about Juneteenth 916 00:58:35.679 --> 00:58:39.920 and his family regularly and for a many, many many 917 00:58:40.039 --> 00:58:45.199 years celebrating that very point. I mean, I'm with you 918 00:58:45.280 --> 00:58:48.679 a hundred percent on the interpretation of the celebration. That's 919 00:58:48.719 --> 00:58:51.760 the point, isn't it. Democrats are the Party of the Klan, 920 00:58:51.880 --> 00:58:54.199 Democrats with the Party of Slavery, Democrats of the Party 921 00:58:54.199 --> 00:58:58.199 of Jim Crow Laws if it wasn't for Republic. Yeah, exactly, 922 00:58:58.239 --> 00:58:59.480 we should all be celebrating. 923 00:59:00.119 --> 00:59:03.800 Not to mention, don't forget the Welfare Act of sixty four, 924 00:59:03.840 --> 00:59:06.480 which pretty much destroyed the black family unit. 925 00:59:06.719 --> 00:59:08.679 Yes, yes, you know. 926 00:59:08.800 --> 00:59:11.000 I mean there's there's a lot of there's a lot 927 00:59:11.039 --> 00:59:14.400 of reasons why. It's kind of funny because I work 928 00:59:14.480 --> 00:59:18.079 with some black guys and one of them is kind 929 00:59:18.119 --> 00:59:21.400 of a political and the other two are pretty much 930 00:59:21.400 --> 00:59:24.519 strong Trump supporters because they looked around. They work for 931 00:59:24.599 --> 00:59:27.599 a living, and they're tired of paying for people that. 932 00:59:27.679 --> 00:59:32.239 Don't they work for a living. 933 00:59:32.639 --> 00:59:33.960 Yeah, I'm with you. 934 00:59:35.320 --> 00:59:40.000 So anyway, if you're a conservative and they start, you 935 00:59:40.039 --> 00:59:43.800 start getting irritated about Juneteenth, No, remember to point that 936 00:59:43.920 --> 00:59:46.599 out on top of that. Not that it matters, because 937 00:59:46.599 --> 00:59:49.159 it's just personal. But I have an ancestor that was 938 00:59:49.239 --> 00:59:52.679 killed in the Civil War fighting for their freedom, So 939 00:59:52.840 --> 00:59:54.800 to me, it's an extra special holiday. 940 00:59:55.000 --> 00:59:57.519 There you have it. That's a great point. I'm glad 941 00:59:57.559 --> 00:59:58.519 you made it. I really am. 942 00:59:59.239 --> 01:00:02.639 It's a question for perspective, and sometimes our perspectives are well, 943 01:00:02.760 --> 01:00:06.880 perhaps not exactly accurate anyhow. 944 01:00:08.320 --> 01:00:08.760 Uh. 945 01:00:08.880 --> 01:00:13.400 Sarah Herringer, in another post talking about AFTAB Purvoll showing 946 01:00:13.480 --> 01:00:17.280 up at the No King's rally, which he apparently did, 947 01:00:17.280 --> 01:00:19.320 and there's a photograph of him speaking with a bullhorn 948 01:00:19.360 --> 01:00:23.840 to the crowd. Since I mayor rallies with crowd at 949 01:00:23.840 --> 01:00:28.840 anti Trump protest. Sarah Herringer, so we all know whose 950 01:00:28.920 --> 01:00:30.960 husband got stabbed to death in there over the right 951 01:00:31.039 --> 01:00:35.599 home wrote this in a recent post. I believe in 952 01:00:35.639 --> 01:00:39.159 civic engagement. I believe in calling out injustice wherever it is. 953 01:00:39.239 --> 01:00:41.280 But when your house is on fire, you don't run 954 01:00:41.320 --> 01:00:44.559 to protest someone else's mayor purval. You were elected to 955 01:00:44.639 --> 01:00:48.159 govern Cincinnati, not to campaign on national stages, not to 956 01:00:48.239 --> 01:00:51.360 chase headlines. Well, you gave speeches about protecting us from 957 01:00:51.360 --> 01:00:54.519 the federal government. My husband was murdered in our home 958 01:00:54.559 --> 01:00:57.159 by a man who was supposed to be under state supervision, 959 01:00:57.400 --> 01:01:00.320 a man who absconded from post release control, a man 960 01:01:00.360 --> 01:01:03.679 who should have been found and stopped. That is not 961 01:01:03.800 --> 01:01:07.119 a federal issue. That is your lane, and you weren't 962 01:01:07.159 --> 01:01:10.599 in it. I don't care if you're a Democrat or 963 01:01:10.639 --> 01:01:13.239 a Republican. I care whether you are present, I care 964 01:01:13.280 --> 01:01:15.880 whether you're competent. I care whether the families in this 965 01:01:16.000 --> 01:01:19.360 city can trust you to do more than perform grief 966 01:01:19.559 --> 01:01:23.360 after the fact, because the truth is, you can't protest 967 01:01:23.400 --> 01:01:28.280 authoritarianism while ignoring dysfunction in your own backyard. You can't 968 01:01:28.559 --> 01:01:32.079 call yourself a protector of democracy while communities in your 969 01:01:32.119 --> 01:01:35.079 care are being left unprotected. You were given a city, 970 01:01:35.159 --> 01:01:39.760 start acting like it, because while you're focused on Washington, 971 01:01:41.119 --> 01:01:44.280 some of us are burying our loved ones and we 972 01:01:44.360 --> 01:01:49.840 deserve better. Oh, I like that one as I stare 973 01:01:49.880 --> 01:01:52.079 at one of the local story headlines, man dies in 974 01:01:52.159 --> 01:01:55.760 North Side shooting six point thirty six fifty five Care 975 01:01:55.840 --> 01:01:58.360 see the talk station five point three seven four nine 976 01:01:58.440 --> 01:02:01.519 fifty eight hundred two three another phone number I'm gonna 977 01:02:01.559 --> 01:02:04.199 give you before the chimney Care fireplace and still because 978 01:02:04.239 --> 01:02:07.079 you need to have your chimney inspected and right now. 979 01:02:07.119 --> 01:02:10.280 Chimneycare fireplaces still will do it for free.

You know, 1016 01:03:49.400 --> 01:03:51.599 I'm pivoting off of the reality of what's going on 1017 01:03:51.639 --> 01:03:53.639 in California, the fact that their entire state is pretty 1018 01:03:53.719 --> 01:03:56.599 much built and predicated on illegal immigrants being there and 1019 01:03:56.639 --> 01:04:01.360 staying there, otherwise work wouldn't get done. And Trump, I think, 1020 01:04:01.519 --> 01:04:07.079 is echoing that concern. Trump administration has directed immigration officers 1021 01:04:07.119 --> 01:04:12.960 to pause arrest at farms, restaurants, and hotels, this following 1022 01:04:12.960 --> 01:04:16.440 President Trump expressing alarm about the impact of aggressive enforcement, 1023 01:04:16.440 --> 01:04:20.320 at least according to officials speaking with the News hmmm. 1024 01:04:21.719 --> 01:04:21.840 UH. 1025 01:04:21.920 --> 01:04:26.400 Official with ICE Homeland Security Investigations Unit, Tatum King, wrote 1026 01:04:26.480 --> 01:04:30.519 regional leaders this past Thursday to halt investigations of the 1027 01:04:30.639 --> 01:04:35.920 agricultural industry, including meat packers, restaurants, and hotels. As reported 1028 01:04:35.920 --> 01:04:43.480 by The New York Times, Ooh, why, well, labor intensive 1029 01:04:43.599 --> 01:04:48.840 jobs most Americans won't do. Actio's describing it as an 1030 01:04:48.880 --> 01:04:51.920 economic calamity that result from the mass deportations. If you 1031 01:04:52.039 --> 01:04:57.679 go after every illegal immigrant or unauthorized immigrant, I guess 1032 01:04:57.679 --> 01:05:00.840 it's easier to get free stuff than work for Americans 1033 01:05:00.880 --> 01:05:07.639 because Americans won't do these labor intensive jobs. American Immigration 1034 01:05:07.760 --> 01:05:11.119 Council estimated unauthorized immigrants make up about four point six 1035 01:05:11.159 --> 01:05:14.480 of the nation's total employed labor force. Ready for this one, though, 1036 01:05:15.800 --> 01:05:18.280 according to the Department of Agriculture, a recent study that 1037 01:05:18.320 --> 01:05:22.880 they put out estimated that about forty two percent of 1038 01:05:22.920 --> 01:05:28.280 America's farm workers were undocumented. That's county years twenty twenty 1039 01:05:28.280 --> 01:05:29.199 to twenty twenty two. 1040 01:05:29.519 --> 01:05:29.960 Hmmmm. 1041 01:05:34.039 --> 01:05:36.599 And it's a legitimate question to ask who's going to 1042 01:05:36.679 --> 01:05:39.519 do the farm work, who's going to pick crops? Apparently 1043 01:05:39.559 --> 01:05:46.599 Americans are too damn lazy to do it themselves. Tricia McLaughlin, 1044 01:05:46.679 --> 01:05:50.000 Homeland Security spokesperson, said, we will follow President's direction and 1045 01:05:50.039 --> 01:05:52.679 continue to work to get the worst of the worst 1046 01:05:52.920 --> 01:05:57.880 criminal illegal aliens off American streets, of course, pivoting off 1047 01:05:57.880 --> 01:05:59.920 of We're not going to go after the agricultural workers, 1048 01:06:00.000 --> 01:06:01.079 the ones that haven't committed crimes. 1049 01:06:01.159 --> 01:06:02.840 We let them stay. 1050 01:06:05.239 --> 01:06:09.320 An illustration that mass deportations of every single illegal immigrant 1051 01:06:09.320 --> 01:06:17.519 in our country threatens industries that rely on them. Truth 1052 01:06:17.599 --> 01:06:21.000 social media posts from our own president, our great farmers, 1053 01:06:21.039 --> 01:06:23.800 and people in the hotel and leisure business have been 1054 01:06:23.880 --> 01:06:27.679 starting as stating that our very aggressive policy on immigration 1055 01:06:27.880 --> 01:06:31.719 is taking very good, long time workers away from them, 1056 01:06:32.079 --> 01:06:38.440 with those jobs being almost impossible to replace. Many cases, 1057 01:06:38.480 --> 01:06:41.679 the criminals allowed in our country by the very stupid 1058 01:06:41.679 --> 01:06:45.320 Biden open borders policy are applying for those jobs. 1059 01:06:48.000 --> 01:06:48.800 This is not good. 1060 01:06:48.840 --> 01:06:51.559 We must protect our farmers, but get the criminals out 1061 01:06:51.559 --> 01:06:57.440 of the USA. Changes are coming, so, you know, even 1062 01:06:57.480 --> 01:07:00.800 Donald Trump recognizes the limitations of a you know, wholesale 1063 01:07:00.840 --> 01:07:03.880 one dent crackdown on this and I bring this up, 1064 01:07:03.920 --> 01:07:06.039 you know, to kick you to reflect on the reality 1065 01:07:06.039 --> 01:07:09.000 that we are dealing with here in the country. We've 1066 01:07:09.079 --> 01:07:13.639 raised a whole generation or five generations, how many how 1067 01:07:13.679 --> 01:07:16.079 long has this been going on of young people who 1068 01:07:16.199 --> 01:07:19.199 are here and are lawfully here, Because there are kids 1069 01:07:19.480 --> 01:07:23.800 that won't do work and We got people coming from 1070 01:07:23.840 --> 01:07:29.960 countries that their country suck so much that they're happy 1071 01:07:30.000 --> 01:07:37.679 to do that kind of work. I mean, talk to 1072 01:07:37.719 --> 01:07:42.400 the kid down in your basement, play an Xbox, so 1073 01:07:42.400 --> 01:07:43.199 I get a job? 1074 01:07:44.280 --> 01:07:44.519 Do it? 1075 01:07:44.599 --> 01:07:49.280 Would uh picking berries? Hmm? 1076 01:07:52.400 --> 01:07:56.840 Now go to some place that's just economically devastated, or 1077 01:07:56.880 --> 01:07:59.800 you know, just an awful, awful, awful country, so much 1078 01:07:59.800 --> 01:08:02.119 so that you're willing to walk thousands of miles and 1079 01:08:02.519 --> 01:08:05.400 pay drug cartels the smugging you into our country. You're 1080 01:08:05.440 --> 01:08:08.199 willing to pick the berries that the kid in the 1081 01:08:08.199 --> 01:08:13.440 basement won't do. It's just a real odd thing to behold, 1082 01:08:13.519 --> 01:08:18.560 isn't it.

It's summertime and then it's six. 1115 01:09:59.439 --> 01:10:03.600 Fifty one fifty five care city talk station in fighting 1116 01:10:03.640 --> 01:10:05.399 phone calls. I mean, you've got something to say, love 1117 01:10:05.439 --> 01:10:07.399 to hear from you five one three, seven nine fifty 1118 01:10:07.960 --> 01:10:09.680 eight hundred eight two to three talk pound five fifty 1119 01:10:09.720 --> 01:10:10.760 on AT and T phones. 1120 01:10:11.319 --> 01:10:11.520 Yeah. 1121 01:10:11.600 --> 01:10:14.279 Part of the problem with this sanctuary cities and state 1122 01:10:14.319 --> 01:10:19.319 policies is that they don't alert Immigrations and Customs officials 1123 01:10:19.359 --> 01:10:23.359 about criminals in the court system. We've seen this time 1124 01:10:23.399 --> 01:10:26.079 and time again. They don't cooperate. You got a guy 1125 01:10:26.159 --> 01:10:29.079 that's committed to crime, and you don't let ICE know 1126 01:10:29.279 --> 01:10:30.960 when you're letting them out in spite of the fact 1127 01:10:30.960 --> 01:10:35.479 they're an illegal, illegal immigrant. And if you did that, 1128 01:10:35.600 --> 01:10:37.359 you would get rid of the bad element that Donald 1129 01:10:37.359 --> 01:10:40.119 Trump is trying to focus on, which would not then 1130 01:10:40.279 --> 01:10:45.159 thereby prevent ICE or eliminate or alleviate the need for 1131 01:10:45.239 --> 01:10:49.079 ICE to go into. Yeah, the farming industry or other businesses, 1132 01:10:49.119 --> 01:10:52.399 meat packers and things. That's part of the problem is 1133 01:10:52.439 --> 01:10:55.479 because you know, as the article pointed out another's note, 1134 01:10:55.680 --> 01:10:57.760 some of the criminal element will in fact go and 1135 01:10:57.920 --> 01:11:00.319 do these jobs. So you got a bad guy in 1136 01:11:00.640 --> 01:11:06.199 working as a meatpacker person or a fruit picker, let 1137 01:11:06.239 --> 01:11:08.159 out of the criminal justice system to go back out 1138 01:11:08.199 --> 01:11:10.600 on the streets because of the sanctuary policies, and then 1139 01:11:11.039 --> 01:11:13.199 ICE says, well, we know where that guy is. They 1140 01:11:13.279 --> 01:11:15.359 go in there and then find out there's a whole 1141 01:11:15.359 --> 01:11:17.600 bunch of illegal immigrants and end up rounding all of 1142 01:11:17.640 --> 01:11:23.079 them up. So while Trump and I am going to 1143 01:11:23.159 --> 01:11:27.199 pair back, I guess that happening. I presume that that 1144 01:11:27.359 --> 01:11:31.840 means that I, well, I s will have to pick 1145 01:11:31.920 --> 01:11:34.760 them up elsewhere as a post on the job. Then 1146 01:11:34.800 --> 01:11:38.079 if you know someone's on the street illegal alien who's 1147 01:11:38.119 --> 01:11:40.800 a criminal, then they'll try to find them someplace else. 1148 01:11:40.840 --> 01:11:43.520 It's obviously a very complicating factor that goes on. 1149 01:11:47.039 --> 01:11:47.439 Borders. 1150 01:11:47.439 --> 01:11:49.960 Our Tom Homan repeatedly said ICE is going to send 1151 01:11:50.000 --> 01:11:53.920 officers into communities and workplaces, particularly in sanctuary jurisdictions that 1152 01:11:54.039 --> 01:12:01.760 limit the agency's access to local jails. He said, you know, 1153 01:12:01.800 --> 01:12:04.039 sanctuary cities will get exactly what they don't want, more 1154 01:12:04.079 --> 01:12:06.600 officers in the communities and more officers of the work sites. 1155 01:12:07.279 --> 01:12:09.279 We can't arrest them in the jail, we'll arrest them 1156 01:12:09.279 --> 01:12:11.079 in the community. If we can't arrest them in the community, 1157 01:12:11.079 --> 01:12:14.000 we're gonna increase work side enforcement operation. We're gonna flood 1158 01:12:14.039 --> 01:12:17.239 the zone. And then Trump ends up having a backpack 1159 01:12:17.319 --> 01:12:20.840 on that concept because of course, apparently none of us 1160 01:12:20.880 --> 01:12:22.800 will have any food to eat if we go ahead 1161 01:12:22.800 --> 01:12:27.520 and get all the illegal immigrants off the farms. This 1162 01:12:27.560 --> 01:12:41.720 is an extremely complicated situation, is it not, And if 1163 01:12:41.720 --> 01:12:48.600 you're opposing ICE agents, you run the risk. I'm moving 1164 01:12:48.640 --> 01:12:51.199 over it to more comical element, although it's not comical 1165 01:12:51.239 --> 01:12:57.399 for the victim. Here man protesting against ice raids in 1166 01:12:57.399 --> 01:13:05.560 downtown Los Angeles with Los Angeles KTLA after an officer's 1167 01:13:05.880 --> 01:13:12.439 close range rubber bullet shot hit him in the groin, dear, 1168 01:13:13.000 --> 01:13:17.079 what the hell, severely bruising one of his testicles and 1169 01:13:17.720 --> 01:13:24.760 shattering the other. Thirty three year old so called demonstrator 1170 01:13:24.880 --> 01:13:32.399 Martin Santoyo quote it sucks to sit down close quote. 1171 01:13:32.640 --> 01:13:34.119 Now who can argue with that? 1172 01:13:36.359 --> 01:13:39.039 Home from the hospital but still in recovery, unable to walk. 1173 01:13:40.760 --> 01:13:43.920 Incident happened last Monday, Temple Street, just after he got 1174 01:13:43.960 --> 01:13:49.199 out off his bicycle within the crowd of protesters among 1175 01:13:49.279 --> 01:13:51.840 law enforcement. He noted that before this happened, he did 1176 01:13:51.880 --> 01:14:03.359 not hear any officers declaring an unlawful gathering. Okay, that 1177 01:14:03.399 --> 01:14:13.119 would hurt, wouldn't it. Sean Hannity's burn at commercials, stick around, 1178 01:14:13.159 --> 01:14:15.119 a few things we can talk about. In the initial 1179 01:14:15.199 --> 01:14:17.640 segment of the seven o'clock hour, followed by the former 1180 01:14:17.680 --> 01:14:19.880 vice man of the City of Cincinnati, Christopher Smith Avan 1181 01:14:19.920 --> 01:14:22.000 with the Smith Event, I hope you can stick around. 1182 01:14:22.199 --> 01:14:25.039 From a full rundown of the biggest headlines.

And Donald Trump's been pushing 1217 01:16:03.399 --> 01:16:05.920 for that record number of people claiming Social Security again 1218 01:16:05.960 --> 01:16:08.520 pointing out the obvious A lot of baby boomers are 1219 01:16:08.560 --> 01:16:09.960 in retirement age. 1220 01:16:09.720 --> 01:16:11.800 Now, big chunk of folks. 1221 01:16:13.800 --> 01:16:16.439 That's the World War two veterans coming back and having babies. 1222 01:16:18.079 --> 01:16:21.560 Karris Cares. Speaking of veterans, we got Cincinniva on at 1223 01:16:21.800 --> 01:16:23.880 eight four who got some information passed along to my 1224 01:16:23.960 --> 01:16:26.399 veteran audience members. And God bless each and every one 1225 01:16:26.399 --> 01:16:34.640 of you. Anyhow, Yeah, speaking of these the conflict going on, 1226 01:16:34.720 --> 01:16:35.560 it's more of the conflict. 1227 01:16:35.600 --> 01:16:37.439 It's out outright war and. 1228 01:16:37.399 --> 01:16:40.560 It looks like I tell you, uh, Israel has really 1229 01:16:40.600 --> 01:16:44.479 done a number on Iran, and now apparently they own 1230 01:16:44.600 --> 01:16:49.960 the airspace Israel flying in and out and hitting more 1231 01:16:50.000 --> 01:16:52.920 targets in Iran. I guess free of the concern they're 1232 01:16:52.920 --> 01:16:55.680 going to get shot out of the scot They've blown 1233 01:16:55.760 --> 01:17:01.800 up quite a bit of the Iran's arsenal, and yet 1234 01:17:01.880 --> 01:17:05.319 over the weekend they claimed to operate almost freely in Iran. 1235 01:17:06.600 --> 01:17:09.279 Third day of air strikes yesterday killed more high ranking 1236 01:17:09.359 --> 01:17:15.359 security figures, and some Iranian missiles did slip through Israeli's 1237 01:17:15.399 --> 01:17:20.199 air defenses. I've seen a number of reports hypersonic missiles 1238 01:17:20.239 --> 01:17:24.560 and I was not aware that Iran had those, not 1239 01:17:24.560 --> 01:17:28.159 even sure if we've got them anyway. As an indication 1240 01:17:28.159 --> 01:17:30.079 of how far Israel was prepared to go amid fears 1241 01:17:30.079 --> 01:17:32.640 of all out war, US official told the Associated Press 1242 01:17:32.680 --> 01:17:37.439 that Donald Trump that President Trump in recent days vetoed 1243 01:17:38.359 --> 01:17:47.000 and Israeli planned to kill Iran's supreme leader, Ayatola al Khameni. Now, meanwhile, 1244 01:17:47.039 --> 01:17:49.239 Trump was sing over the weekend, just yesterday, we had 1245 01:17:49.279 --> 01:17:54.039 nothing to do with this, this this war campaign. US 1246 01:17:54.119 --> 01:17:59.159 had nothing to do with the attack on Iran. But 1247 01:17:59.359 --> 01:18:01.520 he pointed out, a if we are attacked in any way, 1248 01:18:01.600 --> 01:18:04.479 shape or form by Iran, the full strength and might 1249 01:18:04.520 --> 01:18:06.720 of the US armed forces will come down on you 1250 01:18:06.800 --> 01:18:10.000 at levels never seen before. However, we can easily get 1251 01:18:10.000 --> 01:18:12.560 a deal gun between Iran and Israel and end the 1252 01:18:12.600 --> 01:18:15.640 bloody conflict. So here he is attempting, and you know, 1253 01:18:16.640 --> 01:18:19.399 Iran kept walking away from the table. I mean, it's 1254 01:18:19.399 --> 01:18:22.880 almost like the situation with Russian and Ukraine. Russia says, listen, 1255 01:18:23.159 --> 01:18:25.840 we are not going to negotiate peace unless you agree 1256 01:18:25.880 --> 01:18:29.439 to completely disarm and denazify, whatever the hell that's supposed 1257 01:18:29.439 --> 01:18:33.840 to mean, as well as give away the certain you know, 1258 01:18:33.960 --> 01:18:35.399 areas of Ukraine. 1259 01:18:35.479 --> 01:18:37.920 Right, and Zelensky won't. 1260 01:18:37.760 --> 01:18:39.680 Come to the table because he won't concede to those 1261 01:18:39.720 --> 01:18:43.119 initial demands. Well, that's exactly what Iran has been saying 1262 01:18:43.119 --> 01:18:45.960 in so far as you know the the nuclear processing. 1263 01:18:46.640 --> 01:18:49.399 They're not going to give up their nuclear programs. So 1264 01:18:49.439 --> 01:18:51.239 don't come to the table telling us that we're going 1265 01:18:51.319 --> 01:18:53.000 to have to give up our nuclear program as a 1266 01:18:53.039 --> 01:18:56.760 predicate for sitting down and negotiating peace. So I suppose 1267 01:18:56.760 --> 01:18:59.359 we're to stalemate such that you know, Israel says, listen, 1268 01:18:59.399 --> 01:19:02.119 they're like five seconds away from getting a nuclear bomb. 1269 01:19:02.560 --> 01:19:05.640 We are going to take them out in a wildly 1270 01:19:05.720 --> 01:19:09.880 successful campaign. Hell, it even surprised the Israelis that they 1271 01:19:09.880 --> 01:19:11.960 were able to kill so many of the top commanders 1272 01:19:11.960 --> 01:19:15.199 in that meeting, which apparently got orchestrated by the Israeli 1273 01:19:15.239 --> 01:19:18.680 government itself. And isn't an amazing thing to realize that 1274 01:19:18.840 --> 01:19:26.439 Israel has infiltrated the Iranian government specifically red flags for 1275 01:19:26.560 --> 01:19:29.279 us here in the United States of America during protest 1276 01:19:29.359 --> 01:19:33.159 weekend and on this long term discussion we've been having 1277 01:19:33.159 --> 01:19:36.680 about the illegal immigrant population, all the known godaways think 1278 01:19:36.680 --> 01:19:40.560 about it. Ukraine was able to sneak in drones into 1279 01:19:40.680 --> 01:19:44.199 Russia to hit Russian targets deep within Russia that were 1280 01:19:44.199 --> 01:19:47.960 out of the reach of the Ukrainian military. Obviously that 1281 01:19:48.039 --> 01:19:50.079 took place over a long period of time, but that 1282 01:19:50.119 --> 01:19:53.479 they were successful in doing that. Israel able to get 1283 01:19:53.520 --> 01:19:55.760 Hamas to pick up a bunch of cell phones and 1284 01:19:55.840 --> 01:19:59.439 walkie talkies and communication devices and carry them around for like, 1285 01:19:59.680 --> 01:20:01.239 I guess that's in a campaign that went over a 1286 01:20:01.279 --> 01:20:05.079 multi year or more, and then activated the blow up switch, 1287 01:20:05.159 --> 01:20:10.039 eliminating a whole bunch of the Hamas members blow them up. 1288 01:20:12.800 --> 01:20:15.520 And then did the same thing in Iran. Infiltrated the government, 1289 01:20:15.600 --> 01:20:17.359 snuck in Dernes and we're able to hit a whole 1290 01:20:17.359 --> 01:20:21.479 bunch of targets from within Iran itself. Anybody notice a 1291 01:20:21.520 --> 01:20:29.319 trend coming here? Meanwhile, across the United States of America, 1292 01:20:29.359 --> 01:20:32.680 the Chinese Communist Party busy buying up vast quantities of 1293 01:20:32.760 --> 01:20:39.319 land near military bases. Hmm, anything to see there. I mean, 1294 01:20:39.359 --> 01:20:41.600 we live in a world where it is literally impossible 1295 01:20:41.600 --> 01:20:44.399 to protect yourself from every single threat. As I joked 1296 01:20:44.439 --> 01:20:49.680 this morning about members of Congress now demanding more security, 1297 01:20:49.760 --> 01:20:56.920 personal security for them because this nutcase dvance bolter killed 1298 01:20:56.960 --> 01:21:01.119 State Representative Melissa Hartman and her husband while posing as 1299 01:21:01.119 --> 01:21:04.960 a police officer. Yeah, we live in a violent world, 1300 01:21:05.000 --> 01:21:08.439 whether it's just on this local, individual state basis with 1301 01:21:08.640 --> 01:21:13.560 I have no idea what his political motivations are, but 1302 01:21:13.680 --> 01:21:19.479 they caught him. But you know, the broader point is, 1303 01:21:19.840 --> 01:21:22.439 I mean, there's no way to protect yourself from all 1304 01:21:22.600 --> 01:21:25.479 forms of violence out there in the world. Some are 1305 01:21:25.640 --> 01:21:31.119 posed a greater threat than others. It's a question of 1306 01:21:31.159 --> 01:21:36.039 where you focus your resources, which is kind of the 1307 01:21:36.159 --> 01:21:40.119 joking point about congressional members. Four hundred and fifty plus 1308 01:21:40.159 --> 01:21:42.680 members of Congress. Are we gonna pay for each and 1309 01:21:42.720 --> 01:21:44.359 every one of them to have twenty four hour day, 1310 01:21:44.399 --> 01:21:48.159 seven day week security because that's what was being suggested. 1311 01:21:49.600 --> 01:21:53.359 Oh my god. Elected officials in the state of Minnesota 1312 01:21:53.399 --> 01:21:56.199 got murdered. Yeah, talked to a whole bunch of people 1313 01:21:56.199 --> 01:21:57.600 down and over the Rhine or elsewhere in the city 1314 01:21:57.640 --> 01:22:00.399 Sincinnati to get murdered almost every single day. Yeah, well, 1315 01:22:00.399 --> 01:22:09.319 we can't provide personal protection for them either. Dangerous world 1316 01:22:09.319 --> 01:22:13.239 we live in, isn't it. So I'm a fan of 1317 01:22:13.239 --> 01:22:16.199 the Second Amendment, Bobby, someone else is a fan of 1318 01:22:16.239 --> 01:22:18.399 the Second Amendment. Welcome to the Morning Show.

That was Bill Clinton. 1340 01:23:11.760 --> 01:23:13.720 I think he said that was his greatest failure as 1341 01:23:13.720 --> 01:23:15.960 a president, that he wasn't able to do anything at 1342 01:23:15.960 --> 01:23:21.520 all about that genocide in Rwanda. That also illustrates kind 1343 01:23:21.520 --> 01:23:23.600 of further the point that I made earlier and the 1344 01:23:23.680 --> 01:23:26.279 ineffective reality of the United Nations.

But I but my hat goes out for 1444 01:28:40.039 --> 01:28:41.880 all the dads out there, and I think it's one 1445 01:28:41.920 --> 01:28:46.319 of those public policies, uh that you know, police officers 1446 01:28:46.359 --> 01:28:52.079 and teachers and uh firefighters whoever, those those professions are 1447 01:28:52.479 --> 01:28:55.920 what we're seeing happening across our country and our cities. 1448 01:28:56.279 --> 01:29:00.159 You know, they can't take the place of parenting and 1449 01:29:00.239 --> 01:29:04.199 fathers in households. They just can't. And until we get 1450 01:29:04.199 --> 01:29:06.960 that together, I mean I'm talking about as a culture, 1451 01:29:07.760 --> 01:29:12.119 not something some legislator can do as a country. Until 1452 01:29:12.159 --> 01:29:16.640 we get our arms around fatherhood and what that means 1453 01:29:16.640 --> 01:29:20.720 for our country and how we hold dads. We're talking 1454 01:29:20.760 --> 01:29:23.159 about Father's Day because we can hold moms accountable too, 1455 01:29:23.199 --> 01:29:25.840 but today we're talking about dad. How we hold these 1456 01:29:25.960 --> 01:29:29.359 dads accountable for their involvement or lack of involvement in 1457 01:29:29.399 --> 01:29:34.359 these kids' life. It's going to be difficult to make progress, indeed. 1458 01:29:34.800 --> 01:29:36.720 And you know, I'll say, I may have all fathers 1459 01:29:36.720 --> 01:29:39.079 out there who may not be, you know, as engaged 1460 01:29:39.119 --> 01:29:44.439 as other fathers. If you're there and you're working, and 1461 01:29:44.479 --> 01:29:47.520 you're doing a job, and you're putting food on the table, 1462 01:29:48.159 --> 01:29:53.680 that alone is important in the hearts and minds of children. 1463 01:29:53.680 --> 01:29:58.119 They at least see you being responsible for taking care 1464 01:29:58.159 --> 01:30:01.399 of the family. You're getting up, you're going to work 1465 01:30:01.439 --> 01:30:04.119 every single day, and then you're coming home in the evening. 1466 01:30:04.159 --> 01:30:08.000 You're coming home to them, And that alone is an 1467 01:30:08.039 --> 01:30:12.560 important lesson and illustration of the importance of fatherhood in 1468 01:30:12.600 --> 01:30:13.279 and of itself. 1469 01:30:13.520 --> 01:30:16.800 And let me add to that to say, dads out 1470 01:30:16.800 --> 01:30:21.119 there who are listening to us, right, who are I'm 1471 01:30:21.159 --> 01:30:24.640 just going to say, who are marginal to poor? Remember 1472 01:30:25.000 --> 01:30:29.199 how you treat the mother of your children when you 1473 01:30:29.239 --> 01:30:33.000 have a daughter, When you have a daughter, right, it's 1474 01:30:33.039 --> 01:30:35.239 what she learns what she knows, and it's what her 1475 01:30:35.279 --> 01:30:36.159 expectations are. 1476 01:30:36.239 --> 01:30:39.399 Amen, So understand. 1477 01:30:38.880 --> 01:30:41.399 That there are ramifications, whether it's a son and how 1478 01:30:41.479 --> 01:30:45.560 he treats a woman, but your daughter and her expectations 1479 01:30:45.560 --> 01:30:48.760 of how she's treated. So treat mama bad and do 1480 01:30:48.880 --> 01:30:51.600 all that stuff, and then don't get all bent out 1481 01:30:51.600 --> 01:30:54.039 of shape when she selects somebody like you. 1482 01:30:54.199 --> 01:30:54.600 Amen. 1483 01:30:54.720 --> 01:30:57.520 Oh that's awesome. And as a shout out to Eric, 1484 01:30:57.600 --> 01:31:00.560 my daughter's fiance, because he is a good man, a 1485 01:31:00.680 --> 01:31:04.560 good protective, responsible man, and you know what, I'm glad 1486 01:31:04.560 --> 01:31:07.239 you brought that up. I feel even better about my 1487 01:31:07.319 --> 01:31:11.159 daughter getting married to Eric cart hang On, bring you 1488 01:31:11.199 --> 01:31:13.439 back here, Christopher hang On. I mentioned four in Extreme 1489 01:31:13.640 --> 01:31:16.399 seven thirty one fifty five Krsity talk station Brian Thomas 1490 01:31:16.399 --> 01:31:18.960 with Christopher smith Man always going to smith event every 1491 01:31:18.960 --> 01:31:21.880 Monday beginning at seven to twenty. Christopher, what else is 1492 01:31:21.920 --> 01:31:23.920 on your mind? Since we got our Father's Day well 1493 01:31:23.920 --> 01:31:24.840 wishes out of the way. 1494 01:31:27.000 --> 01:31:32.119 It's this dance vault fifty seven year old Minnesota guy 1495 01:31:32.159 --> 01:31:36.239 who shows up dressed like a police officer and guns 1496 01:31:36.279 --> 01:31:40.319 down the house speaker Melissa Hortman and her and her 1497 01:31:40.439 --> 01:31:43.560 husband in their home and I heard you talking about 1498 01:31:43.560 --> 01:31:46.920 this this morning. Yeah, then goes and tries to target 1499 01:31:46.960 --> 01:31:52.319 another elected official, shoots him and her husband. We our 1500 01:31:52.359 --> 01:31:55.760 hearts go out to them because and the great work 1501 01:31:55.800 --> 01:31:59.239 of the of the police who like pulled it together 1502 01:31:59.359 --> 01:32:03.199 real fast. He's probably going door to door here because 1503 01:32:03.199 --> 01:32:06.000 they saw the hit list in the car and responded, 1504 01:32:06.520 --> 01:32:13.560 found them shot, and gave them life saving help that 1505 01:32:13.600 --> 01:32:18.119 got them into surgery. But the point is, is all 1506 01:32:18.159 --> 01:32:21.960 of this rhetoric that we see going on, cars burning, 1507 01:32:22.399 --> 01:32:28.600 Brian Thomas, Rocks being thrown at police officers, bottles being 1508 01:32:28.640 --> 01:32:32.880 thrown at police officers. They're they're doing their jobs and 1509 01:32:33.000 --> 01:32:37.159 to see the mass media fall right back in the trap. 1510 01:32:38.039 --> 01:32:41.159 Right they're on TV. Cars are on fire, bricks are 1511 01:32:41.159 --> 01:32:45.000 being thrown, cops are being hit and punched, and they 1512 01:32:45.039 --> 01:32:48.399 say there's no violence. These are just peaceful protests, like 1513 01:32:48.479 --> 01:32:52.600 don't believe your eyes, don't believe what you're hearing, don't 1514 01:32:52.600 --> 01:32:55.239 believe what you're seeing. However you want to dress that 1515 01:32:55.359 --> 01:32:59.840 pig up. I am amazed at the mainstream media right. 1516 01:33:00.159 --> 01:33:03.640 They don't understand how they are playing a major part 1517 01:33:04.079 --> 01:33:07.520 in what just happened in Minnesota. Even the governor there 1518 01:33:07.840 --> 01:33:10.520 and his behavior, the things that he has said, his 1519 01:33:10.600 --> 01:33:14.439 own rhetoric. Yeah, I think, and this is speculation, Brian Thomas. 1520 01:33:14.520 --> 01:33:17.520 I think we're going to find out that this person 1521 01:33:18.439 --> 01:33:21.880 did not like a recent vote of the House speaker 1522 01:33:21.920 --> 01:33:26.000 there and decided to take things into his own hands. 1523 01:33:26.079 --> 01:33:28.720 I think we're going to find out what his motivations were, 1524 01:33:29.199 --> 01:33:34.960 and they were about votes that these Democrats taking with Republicans. 1525 01:33:35.359 --> 01:33:39.279 And this notion of compromise has left the public space 1526 01:33:39.760 --> 01:33:42.720 meaning to say, I'm trying to compromise with my colleague 1527 01:33:42.720 --> 01:33:46.039 and I'm trying to move some type of public policy forward. 1528 01:33:46.479 --> 01:33:51.119 In today's world, it's viewed as you are some person 1529 01:33:51.199 --> 01:33:54.600 that has gone against us. You know, you're now a trader, 1530 01:33:55.039 --> 01:33:57.359 and I'm going to announce try to take you out. 1531 01:34:00.720 --> 01:34:03.159 I'm gonna, I'm gonna, I'm gonna try to take you out. 1532 01:34:03.479 --> 01:34:05.439 And I just my hearts go out to those families. 1533 01:34:05.479 --> 01:34:07.600 Bryan Times. I just wanted to say that I'm watching that. 1534 01:34:07.640 --> 01:34:10.960 I'm glad they called him. I hope they hold him accountable. 1535 01:34:11.720 --> 01:34:13.960 But it's unbelievable and these are the things I have 1536 01:34:14.039 --> 01:34:16.439 to be honest with you, I worry about, Brian Thomas, 1537 01:34:16.439 --> 01:34:20.199 your friend me personally. I worry about this. You know, 1538 01:34:20.479 --> 01:34:24.520 I'm on I'm on red alert most days, and I 1539 01:34:24.680 --> 01:34:27.479 encourage people, and I've said it on your show that 1540 01:34:27.600 --> 01:34:30.319 you've got to be prepared to defend yourself. Yeah, and 1541 01:34:30.359 --> 01:34:34.600 you have these same liberal bodies like City Hall in Cincinnati, 1542 01:34:35.159 --> 01:34:38.279 you know, passing resolutions and saying you want to get 1543 01:34:38.359 --> 01:34:43.439 rid of all legal guns and illegal guns. Like it 1544 01:34:43.600 --> 01:34:46.720 makes absolutely no sense. If you're not gonna protect me, 1545 01:34:47.479 --> 01:34:50.680 why can't I take it under my own to protect 1546 01:34:50.680 --> 01:34:53.279 my family and my house. I just don't understand it. 1547 01:34:53.319 --> 01:34:54.000 Brian Thomas. 1548 01:34:54.079 --> 01:34:56.119 Well, you know, and you got members of Congress now 1549 01:34:56.199 --> 01:34:59.640 talking about getting personal security for themselves. Of course, Uh, 1550 01:34:59.680 --> 01:35:02.800 you know, House of Representative members and senators don't have 1551 01:35:02.840 --> 01:35:06.359 their own personal security unless they're in some lofty elevated position. 1552 01:35:06.520 --> 01:35:09.359 And you know, after these shootings in Minnesota now they're 1553 01:35:09.399 --> 01:35:11.520 screaming and yelling about getting their own law. You know, 1554 01:35:11.600 --> 01:35:15.319 I guess taxpayer funded private security. I mean, you and 1555 01:35:15.359 --> 01:35:17.159 I don't get that, Christopher, And we live in a 1556 01:35:17.239 --> 01:35:19.199 far more dangerous world than they live in. 1557 01:35:20.479 --> 01:35:24.000 Look, Brian Thomas, public, they don't even realize what you 1558 01:35:24.119 --> 01:35:28.239 personally went through when somebody with their truck tried to 1559 01:35:28.319 --> 01:35:31.359 run you off the road right, and that that was 1560 01:35:31.399 --> 01:35:34.720 a very close call for you, my friend Brian Thomas, 1561 01:35:34.840 --> 01:35:37.119 meaning it was a close call what was happening on 1562 01:35:37.159 --> 01:35:39.600 that highway when that guy was trying to run you 1563 01:35:39.640 --> 01:35:43.840 off the road, and he didn't realize that within seconds 1564 01:35:44.319 --> 01:35:46.319 that guy was about to lose his life. That Brian 1565 01:35:46.399 --> 01:35:48.119 Thomas wasn't gonna play with him when he got out 1566 01:35:48.119 --> 01:35:48.960 of that car now. 1567 01:35:49.720 --> 01:35:52.960 And he did the right thing by walking away from 1568 01:35:53.079 --> 01:35:56.520 where the cars ended up. And that's what saved his 1569 01:35:56.600 --> 01:35:58.760 life because he was at my door when I opened 1570 01:35:58.760 --> 01:36:01.079 my door up. I've said before and I say it again, 1571 01:36:01.239 --> 01:36:03.119 I'm sorry. I was in a position where I was 1572 01:36:03.119 --> 01:36:06.159 feared for what I feared for my life legitimately so 1573 01:36:06.960 --> 01:36:09.840 and it's nice to have the ultimate great equalizer, because 1574 01:36:09.880 --> 01:36:12.920 that guy towered over me in terms of his size. 1575 01:36:13.640 --> 01:36:15.640 You know, that's the point of having a firearm. You 1576 01:36:15.640 --> 01:36:19.119 could be a slight of build, elderly woman of ninety 1577 01:36:19.239 --> 01:36:22.520 pounds and you can still defend yourself against a six 1578 01:36:22.560 --> 01:36:27.399 foot four to four hundred pound guy. And if you don't, 1579 01:36:27.640 --> 01:36:29.279 if you don't take it upon yourself to be in 1580 01:36:29.279 --> 01:36:31.239 a position to be able to do that, not that 1581 01:36:31.319 --> 01:36:34.159 in all circumstances you are going to be able to 1582 01:36:34.239 --> 01:36:35.960 do it. I'm just I'm not saying that owning a 1583 01:36:36.000 --> 01:36:39.119 firearm alone is going to avoid all situations. World's in 1584 01:36:39.119 --> 01:36:43.720 a perfect place, but having access to one certainly should 1585 01:36:43.720 --> 01:36:45.640 provide you a measure of comfort and at least the 1586 01:36:45.800 --> 01:36:49.439 ability to stop something like that from happening to you 1587 01:36:49.720 --> 01:36:53.319 or especially coming up. He was a father's day. More fundamentally, 1588 01:36:53.399 --> 01:36:57.119 your family. Let's bring Christopher back seven thirty six. If 1589 01:36:57.119 --> 01:37:02.760 you have care, see the talks dam seven forty one 1590 01:37:02.760 --> 01:37:05.119 almost and went I think about Kresy Talk Station. Enjoying 1591 01:37:05.159 --> 01:37:07.840 my conversation with Christopher Smith and always enjoy hearing from 1592 01:37:07.920 --> 01:37:10.640 every Monday. We're gonna hear from Brian James Monday, Monday, 1593 01:37:10.640 --> 01:37:12.079 after the top of the arn is Christopher? 1594 01:37:12.119 --> 01:37:13.439 What else is on your mind this morning? 1595 01:37:14.720 --> 01:37:17.600 Look? Look, Brian, this segment that I'm gonna have is 1596 01:37:17.640 --> 01:37:20.199 going to feel a little boring. I just want to 1597 01:37:20.199 --> 01:37:23.439 share to your listening audience. But it's the foundation and 1598 01:37:23.479 --> 01:37:26.319 it will set up further conversations that you and I 1599 01:37:26.359 --> 01:37:30.840 will have on Monday mornings. There are three books or 1600 01:37:31.079 --> 01:37:36.439 historical points that every American should understand about our country. 1601 01:37:36.600 --> 01:37:40.319 One is the dread Scott case. Number two is juneteenth. 1602 01:37:40.439 --> 01:37:41.399 I heard you talking about it. 1603 01:37:41.520 --> 01:37:43.199 Yeah, I know you're going to bring that up. 1604 01:37:43.880 --> 01:37:47.680 And they should understand the Tuskegee Syphilist study. Right, these 1605 01:37:47.720 --> 01:37:52.159 are three major things historically that happen in our country, 1606 01:37:52.680 --> 01:37:59.319 and particularly conservatives should go out. Republicans should go out 1607 01:37:59.439 --> 01:38:03.399 and find out about the dread Scott case. June teams 1608 01:38:03.560 --> 01:38:06.079 understand it, and the Tustigee Simpli studies. No, I'm gonna 1609 01:38:06.119 --> 01:38:10.479 jump into dread Scott. So, Dred Scott is a American 1610 01:38:10.960 --> 01:38:14.760 who was a slave who had traveled to a free 1611 01:38:14.840 --> 01:38:20.319 state and said, hey, I'm now free. This case went 1612 01:38:20.359 --> 01:38:23.479 all the way to the Supreme Court and seven to two, 1613 01:38:23.840 --> 01:38:30.840 which were seven Dixiecrats, seven activists, Supreme Court justices said, 1614 01:38:31.000 --> 01:38:35.800 Dred Scott, you are a slave. You will always be 1615 01:38:35.880 --> 01:38:40.079 a slave. It doesn't matter where you live, where you travel. 1616 01:38:40.520 --> 01:38:43.399 You are not an American and you will never be 1617 01:38:43.439 --> 01:38:48.319 an American. Pred Scott, you are property. This was the 1618 01:38:48.479 --> 01:38:53.920 United States Supreme Court. These were seven Dixiecrats. Look it up, 1619 01:38:54.199 --> 01:38:59.800 who are Supreme Court justices. This case, many historians will say, 1620 01:39:00.600 --> 01:39:04.199 was the beginning of the Civil War. This was the 1621 01:39:04.239 --> 01:39:08.680 beginning of the war which ultimately elected Lincoln as President 1622 01:39:08.760 --> 01:39:12.159 of the United States of America. And through all of 1623 01:39:12.199 --> 01:39:16.159 that you had the birth of Juneteenth. On June nineteenth, 1624 01:39:16.199 --> 01:39:20.479 eighteen sixty five, where major which is this is an officer, 1625 01:39:21.279 --> 01:39:26.119 a major General, Gordon Granger, ordered the final enforcement of 1626 01:39:26.159 --> 01:39:29.920 the Emancipation Proclamation in Texas, which was the end of 1627 01:39:30.000 --> 01:39:34.039 the Civil War, which African Americans in this country say 1628 01:39:34.399 --> 01:39:37.319 that was the day of our freedom sold the birth 1629 01:39:37.439 --> 01:39:44.000 of Juneteenth. But Dred Scott and Juneteenth are absolutely linked together. 1630 01:39:44.399 --> 01:39:47.359 And in all of that were the Dixiecrats, were the 1631 01:39:47.439 --> 01:39:53.600 Democrats who were oppressing African Americans, enslaved people in this country. 1632 01:39:53.800 --> 01:39:57.880 And it was the Republicans who were fighting for those freedoms, 1633 01:39:58.039 --> 01:40:03.159 who were voting like overwhelmingly for the civil rights legislation 1634 01:40:03.279 --> 01:40:08.359 to come through the Civil Rights Act. So many Republicans 1635 01:40:08.359 --> 01:40:12.960 and Conservatives do not know the role they played in 1636 01:40:13.039 --> 01:40:18.840 the freedom of African Americans, colors, the negro whatever you 1637 01:40:18.920 --> 01:40:21.920 want to call us, through the history of the United 1638 01:40:21.960 --> 01:40:25.000 States of America. If it were up to the Dixiecrats, 1639 01:40:25.359 --> 01:40:28.119 we would still be slaves today. If it were up 1640 01:40:28.199 --> 01:40:31.479 to the Dixiecrats, we would not be Americans. Why is 1641 01:40:31.520 --> 01:40:35.199 this important? Right now? The dread Scott case is being 1642 01:40:35.399 --> 01:40:39.880 used by liberals in the Supreme Court right now for 1643 01:40:40.119 --> 01:40:43.279 birth rights for those who have come to our country 1644 01:40:43.359 --> 01:40:47.359 illegally who are giving birth and saying those citizens are 1645 01:40:47.399 --> 01:40:50.960 now Americans. And they're now using the dread Scott case 1646 01:40:51.159 --> 01:40:54.399 right now with seven to two, with a Supreme Court 1647 01:40:54.439 --> 01:40:57.840 that said dread Scott wasn't a citizen, you will never 1648 01:40:57.960 --> 01:41:01.479 be an American. Now you see the President of the 1649 01:41:01.560 --> 01:41:04.800 United States who say, hey, listen, you can't just come 1650 01:41:04.800 --> 01:41:08.439 to this country illegally. That's the key. We didn't say legally, 1651 01:41:08.840 --> 01:41:12.079 you come to the country illegally, give birth to a child, 1652 01:41:12.119 --> 01:41:15.079 and that child be a citizen of the United States. 1653 01:41:15.439 --> 01:41:18.920 African Americans who are listening to me, do not understand 1654 01:41:18.920 --> 01:41:21.560 that when this is being argued in front of the 1655 01:41:21.640 --> 01:41:25.279 Supreme Court, they're gonna say dread Scott, dread Scott, dread Scott, 1656 01:41:25.399 --> 01:41:29.640 dread Scott constantly because it's the foundation of it. And 1657 01:41:29.720 --> 01:41:33.600 so it's amazing the hypocrisy where the Supreme Court got 1658 01:41:33.640 --> 01:41:37.439 it wrong in eighteen fifty seven dred Scott versus Sanford 1659 01:41:37.680 --> 01:41:41.199 in eighteen fifty seven, and now the liberals are now 1660 01:41:41.319 --> 01:41:44.600 using on the back of an enslaved people, a man 1661 01:41:44.640 --> 01:41:47.800 who fought for his freedoms, saying, now we're gonna use 1662 01:41:47.840 --> 01:41:51.159 this case for those who came here illegally, who have 1663 01:41:51.239 --> 01:41:54.039 a baby, We're gonna call them Americans. But we didn't 1664 01:41:54.079 --> 01:41:58.159 want to call you one, dad and put it in 1665 01:41:58.199 --> 01:41:59.560 your pipe and smoking. 1666 01:42:01.159 --> 01:42:01.840 Exactly. 1667 01:42:02.680 --> 01:42:06.640 Yeah, I you know, I just the horror of that case, 1668 01:42:07.720 --> 01:42:12.720 that the idea that a person a human being, is 1669 01:42:12.760 --> 01:42:16.159 not considered a human being but is considered a piece 1670 01:42:16.239 --> 01:42:21.079 of property. It's just it's so abhorrent. But see that's 1671 01:42:21.119 --> 01:42:23.600 the power of the law. See that dreads Scot's case 1672 01:42:23.640 --> 01:42:24.880 is one of the reasons why I don't believe in 1673 01:42:24.920 --> 01:42:28.079 the death penalty, that the state can take your life 1674 01:42:28.359 --> 01:42:31.439 from you, perhaps in error. And there have been a 1675 01:42:31.439 --> 01:42:33.800 whole bunch of cases where people have been convicted of 1676 01:42:33.880 --> 01:42:36.439 murder and sense of the to the to the to death. 1677 01:42:36.800 --> 01:42:38.680 I want to find out that, oh, I'm sorry, we 1678 01:42:38.800 --> 01:42:43.159 got it wrong, that they could take a life, so 1679 01:42:43.439 --> 01:42:46.960 that the power of the justice is just absolutely amazing. 1680 01:42:46.960 --> 01:42:50.760 Now let me say to you, Brian Thomas, we agree. 1681 01:42:50.840 --> 01:42:53.399 See I agree in that with the death penalty. What 1682 01:42:53.600 --> 01:42:58.239 problem is that the system is broken, meaning meaning the 1683 01:42:58.239 --> 01:43:01.359 flaws of the system because of the human beings involved. 1684 01:43:01.960 --> 01:43:07.399 Got You got nine Supreme Court justices seven to two, right, 1685 01:43:07.479 --> 01:43:10.840 who are saying that dread Scott was not a human being. 1686 01:43:10.960 --> 01:43:13.239 This is an important point I'm trying to make. So 1687 01:43:13.399 --> 01:43:16.600 as the Supreme Court has been making all these decisions 1688 01:43:16.640 --> 01:43:19.640 based on what these local federal judges have been doing, 1689 01:43:19.680 --> 01:43:23.000 meaning you got Democrats who are shopping judges across the 1690 01:43:23.079 --> 01:43:25.840 United States trying to control the White House. It doesn't 1691 01:43:25.880 --> 01:43:28.640 matter to me who's in the White House by Democrat 1692 01:43:28.720 --> 01:43:32.560 or Republican and independent. It's wrong to shop these cases 1693 01:43:32.840 --> 01:43:36.760 to liberal federal judges and them make rulings across the 1694 01:43:36.920 --> 01:43:39.399 entire United States. But then when it gets to the 1695 01:43:39.439 --> 01:43:43.560 Supreme Court, Please don't ever tell me that the Supreme 1696 01:43:43.600 --> 01:43:46.439 Court gets it right all the time. All you have 1697 01:43:46.520 --> 01:43:49.319 to do is look at the dread Scott case and 1698 01:43:49.439 --> 01:43:53.239 see where the Supreme Court rules seven to two that 1699 01:43:53.479 --> 01:43:57.960 dread Scott, an American who was a slave, is never 1700 01:43:58.199 --> 01:44:00.640 ever going to have the rights of an American. You 1701 01:44:00.680 --> 01:44:04.640 will always be property seventy two, which actually started the 1702 01:44:04.680 --> 01:44:09.119 Civil War and the birth of a man called Abraham 1703 01:44:09.199 --> 01:44:12.079 Lincoln who became the President of the United States, which 1704 01:44:12.239 --> 01:44:17.960 ultimately ended with the Emancipation Proclamation June nineteenth, eighteen sixty five, 1705 01:44:18.119 --> 01:44:22.560 which was the birth right of Juneteenth. Every Republican should 1706 01:44:22.640 --> 01:44:26.560 understand Juneteenth. You should embrace juet You should say I 1707 01:44:26.680 --> 01:44:30.319 love Juneteenth. You should go to the Juneteenth celebrations. You 1708 01:44:30.319 --> 01:44:34.159 should put your money behind Junetee. June tenth is your day. 1709 01:44:34.560 --> 01:44:37.600 It's your day that you stood up against Dixiecrats who 1710 01:44:37.600 --> 01:44:42.359 are trying to keep Africans Negroes enslaved as properties forever 1711 01:44:42.439 --> 01:44:45.399 in the United States of America. If the only reason 1712 01:44:45.560 --> 01:44:48.359 we don't understand this is that our school systems, which 1713 01:44:48.399 --> 01:44:52.520 are liberal, do not teach this history to the children. 1714 01:44:52.840 --> 01:44:55.520 They don't want the children to know because they're trying 1715 01:44:55.560 --> 01:44:58.960 to continue to indoctrinate them so that they come out 1716 01:44:59.000 --> 01:45:04.600 as Democrat, not charged with the information to understand. Hey, man, 1717 01:45:04.800 --> 01:45:07.840 Republicans do a lot of great things for African Americans. 1718 01:45:08.159 --> 01:45:09.479 All these things are true. 1719 01:45:10.560 --> 01:45:12.520 Yeah, well, and you know it's interesting because in the 1720 01:45:12.520 --> 01:45:14.600 past you brought up to in teens, and it seems 1721 01:45:14.640 --> 01:45:17.880 to be only a fairly recent phenomenon that it is 1722 01:45:17.960 --> 01:45:19.199 widely celebrated. 1723 01:45:19.600 --> 01:45:23.159 You grew up in a home that celebrated Juneteenth. 1724 01:45:23.279 --> 01:45:26.800 Absolutely. My parents are from the South, right, My father 1725 01:45:26.840 --> 01:45:30.960 from Birmingham, Alabama, my mother from Montgomery, Alabama. They could 1726 01:45:31.000 --> 01:45:35.079 not go to white institutions. They went to Tuskegee Institute, 1727 01:45:35.239 --> 01:45:38.920 which is now called Tuskegee University. My mother who I'm 1728 01:45:38.920 --> 01:45:42.640 bragging on with Miss Tuskegee because we always tease my dad, 1729 01:45:42.880 --> 01:45:46.840 how could you date our pool in fraying terms? How 1730 01:45:46.840 --> 01:45:49.319 did you get the well? How was your rap game 1731 01:45:49.439 --> 01:45:53.039 so strong that you could land Miss Tuskegee. That's a 1732 01:45:53.319 --> 01:45:57.720 very big deal. Anybody who goes to an HBCU understands 1733 01:45:57.760 --> 01:45:59.840 what I'm saying. But the point that I make it 1734 01:46:00.159 --> 01:46:04.159 you is, yes, we celebrated Juneteenth, and what's happening right 1735 01:46:04.199 --> 01:46:07.479 now is people. I want people to understand that Juneteenth 1736 01:46:07.800 --> 01:46:12.399 and July fourth are not in conflict. These two things 1737 01:46:12.399 --> 01:46:16.439 are not in conflict. And conservatives need to understand Juneteenth, 1738 01:46:16.840 --> 01:46:19.920 the dred Scott case, and they have to understand the 1739 01:46:19.960 --> 01:46:23.359 Tuskegee Syphlis study. And these things should be books and 1740 01:46:23.560 --> 01:46:26.279 all of their homes that they all read to all 1741 01:46:26.319 --> 01:46:29.479 of their children. So they understand those three things, it 1742 01:46:29.600 --> 01:46:32.079 will it will change their life if they understand those 1743 01:46:32.079 --> 01:46:38.560 three those three pieces of history. Forgiving these things, you 1744 01:46:38.640 --> 01:46:41.520 know what I mean, you know, I know this this this, yeah, 1745 01:46:41.560 --> 01:46:44.199 this vent might be a little bit, you know, not 1746 01:46:44.199 --> 01:46:46.720 not as like other things. But we have to build 1747 01:46:46.760 --> 01:46:50.159 on these historical things. So people understand when I say, hey, 1748 01:46:50.439 --> 01:46:53.560 dred Scott is being discussed right now for birthright for 1749 01:46:53.920 --> 01:46:56.920 people who came to the country illegally gave birth to 1750 01:46:56.960 --> 01:47:01.239 a child. And now on the backs of ways they're 1751 01:47:01.279 --> 01:47:04.239 trying to say that child is free. When the Supreme 1752 01:47:04.319 --> 01:47:08.359 Court said, no, dred Scott, you'll always be a slave. 1753 01:47:08.880 --> 01:47:12.239 We're never And by the way, he died like like 1754 01:47:12.319 --> 01:47:16.199 they made him a citizen, but he almost died essentially 1755 01:47:16.600 --> 01:47:19.039 in that in that fight, and didn't that struggle. And 1756 01:47:19.039 --> 01:47:22.520 by the way, dred Scott's lawyer was a Republican. I'm 1757 01:47:22.520 --> 01:47:26.319 gonna say that again. Dred Scott's lawyer who fought for 1758 01:47:26.479 --> 01:47:28.880 him was an open. 1759 01:47:29.039 --> 01:47:32.520 Republican, Christopher Smith. And always a pleasure getting the event 1760 01:47:32.520 --> 01:47:35.399 from you, my friend. Appreciate your walking through history. Those 1761 01:47:35.399 --> 01:47:37.560 who do not study history are destined to repeat the 1762 01:47:37.600 --> 01:47:39.279 mistakes of the past. 1763 01:47:39.399 --> 01:47:41.800 Anytime, take your info to go. 1764 01:47:42.159 --> 01:47:44.439 I'm listening powered. 1765 01:47:44.119 --> 01:47:50.239 By fifty five cars. He's the talk station Ato six 1766 01:47:50.279 --> 01:47:52.239 on a Monday, and a happy one to you, Brian Thomas. 1767 01:47:52.239 --> 01:47:53.760 Always looking forward to this time we get to talk 1768 01:47:53.800 --> 01:47:58.439 about money matters with allver financials. Brian James, It is 1769 01:47:58.520 --> 01:48:00.439 time for money Monday. Brian will come back to the 1770 01:48:00.479 --> 01:48:02.000 morning show and happy money to you, sir. 1771 01:48:02.319 --> 01:48:04.800 Good morning, mister Thomas, and back at you, sir. 1772 01:48:04.960 --> 01:48:07.760 Looking at the headlines of the Wall Street General futures 1773 01:48:07.880 --> 01:48:10.840 up just slightly, but across the board in the Green 1774 01:48:10.880 --> 01:48:14.880 I guess the situation in the war with Israel and 1775 01:48:14.920 --> 01:48:17.960 Iran not impacting the markets too much. I guess since 1776 01:48:18.279 --> 01:48:24.159 Israel's dominating Iranian airspace and knocking off targets one by one, 1777 01:48:25.520 --> 01:48:27.439 it looks like that's not going to blow up to 1778 01:48:27.479 --> 01:48:29.640 World War three or something. But at least the markets 1779 01:48:29.680 --> 01:48:30.640 aren't reacting to it. 1780 01:48:31.039 --> 01:48:33.399 Yeah, the mark market seems to be taking it in stride. 1781 01:48:33.640 --> 01:48:36.359 Futures right now are up about anywhere from a half 1782 01:48:36.359 --> 01:48:38.800 to one percent, depending on which one you're looking at. Friday, 1783 01:48:38.880 --> 01:48:41.119 when this all kind of blew up, we had about 1784 01:48:41.119 --> 01:48:43.319 a one to one point seven percent drop in the 1785 01:48:43.399 --> 01:48:45.960 various market in disease, which that's to be expected because 1786 01:48:46.000 --> 01:48:47.920 the market, as we always talk about, the market doesn't 1787 01:48:47.960 --> 01:48:51.079 like unknown stuff. We don't like the unexpected, and we 1788 01:48:51.119 --> 01:48:53.399 certainly don't want wars period, end of story. But at 1789 01:48:53.399 --> 01:48:55.359 the end of the day, the world does keep on 1790 01:48:55.479 --> 01:48:57.800 turning in the face of war, even if you if 1791 01:48:57.840 --> 01:48:59.199 you look at and I don't want to go down 1792 01:48:59.279 --> 01:49:00.680 this path at all, but just to give a little 1793 01:49:00.680 --> 01:49:02.760 bit of historical contact, and again not implying that this 1794 01:49:02.880 --> 01:49:05.479 is happening, but even World War two, most of the 1795 01:49:05.560 --> 01:49:06.880 years of World War two. 1796 01:49:06.800 --> 01:49:08.840 Were positive with regard to the stock market. We don't 1797 01:49:08.840 --> 01:49:09.640 want any of this. 1798 01:49:10.079 --> 01:49:12.680 But if you're sitting there going thinking, well, I can't 1799 01:49:12.720 --> 01:49:14.199 do any about the war anyway, so I'm gonna worry 1800 01:49:14.199 --> 01:49:15.640 about the stuff that they do control, which is my 1801 01:49:15.680 --> 01:49:18.199 own situation. There's nothing going on right now that should 1802 01:49:18.199 --> 01:49:20.279 cause you to rush to the computer or rush to 1803 01:49:20.319 --> 01:49:21.920 the phone, to dump everything you have or put it 1804 01:49:21.920 --> 01:49:23.520 all in gold or any of that kind of stuff. 1805 01:49:23.720 --> 01:49:25.479 It's just more painful. 1806 01:49:25.960 --> 01:49:26.159 You know. 1807 01:49:26.479 --> 01:49:28.880 Let's focus more on the human sacrifice that's occurring than 1808 01:49:28.880 --> 01:49:32.319 the financial because that's not really happening. Anyway, oil prices 1809 01:49:32.359 --> 01:49:34.439 are moving around as would be expected. We did see 1810 01:49:34.479 --> 01:49:37.600 a surge from sixty eight bucks to seventy eight dollars 1811 01:49:37.600 --> 01:49:41.359 a barrel right after the Israel's struck or ins nuclear facilities, 1812 01:49:41.439 --> 01:49:44.119 but then settled back down to about seventy two. You know, 1813 01:49:44.239 --> 01:49:47.199 headlines do fuel this volatility, but history shows us that 1814 01:49:47.600 --> 01:49:51.760 these disruptions for these smaller conflicts are typically pretty short lived. 1815 01:49:51.960 --> 01:49:54.920 Markets pretty have been pretty resilient, so let's not rush 1816 01:49:54.960 --> 01:49:55.760 to any conclusions. 1817 01:49:55.800 --> 01:49:56.560 Fair enough on that. 1818 01:49:56.680 --> 01:49:59.800 And I guess the military industrial complex is always something 1819 01:50:00.039 --> 01:50:00.720 put your money in. 1820 01:50:02.239 --> 01:50:03.520 Yeah, raytheon. 1821 01:50:03.760 --> 01:50:03.960 You know. 1822 01:50:04.039 --> 01:50:06.439 It's like maybe that's one of the reasons the markets 1823 01:50:06.439 --> 01:50:09.359 were stable in World War two, because everybody was churning 1824 01:50:09.399 --> 01:50:10.680 out military hardware. 1825 01:50:11.000 --> 01:50:13.199 Yeah, And I wouldn't say stable, I just mean not 1826 01:50:13.399 --> 01:50:16.279 down for four years straight, you know, of a world war. 1827 01:50:16.399 --> 01:50:19.600 And the reason for that is because generally speaking, anything 1828 01:50:19.640 --> 01:50:23.520 that happens that surprises the world will eventually become a catalyst. 1829 01:50:23.800 --> 01:50:26.079 The catalyst in World War two was, as you just mentioned, 1830 01:50:26.399 --> 01:50:29.760 we became a military industrial complex. General Motors started making 1831 01:50:29.800 --> 01:50:33.479 tanks instead of cars, and the Rubber company started sending 1832 01:50:33.520 --> 01:50:36.560 rubber overseas to the you know, to support the military. 1833 01:50:36.840 --> 01:50:38.920 The end of the day, there's still money moving around. 1834 01:50:38.960 --> 01:50:42.239 There are still consumers who become the government and the military, 1835 01:50:42.239 --> 01:50:44.640 and there are still producers, so the money still flows. 1836 01:50:44.880 --> 01:50:47.279 So that's what keeps economies afloat. And I would even 1837 01:50:47.279 --> 01:50:50.159 throw out, you know, not that long ago with COVID 1838 01:50:50.840 --> 01:50:53.199 in early twenty twenty. COVID made us all think the 1839 01:50:53.199 --> 01:50:54.720 world was going to end. And if you look at 1840 01:50:54.720 --> 01:50:57.079 what the stock market did between February and March of 1841 01:50:57.119 --> 01:50:59.479 twenty twenty, it went off a cliff. But we don't 1842 01:50:59.520 --> 01:51:01.640 remember that because we were all learning that we needed 1843 01:51:01.640 --> 01:51:03.239 to go live in our houses and not come out 1844 01:51:03.239 --> 01:51:05.520 for a while, and that was scarier than looking at 1845 01:51:05.520 --> 01:51:07.560 financial statements. So by the time the dust settled on 1846 01:51:07.600 --> 01:51:10.840 the market panic, then it had become a catalyst. That's 1847 01:51:10.840 --> 01:51:12.880 where Zoom came from. Nobody had really heard of zoom 1848 01:51:12.920 --> 01:51:14.680 much before. We all had to go home and learn 1849 01:51:14.760 --> 01:51:16.560 how to use it. But now it's part of our 1850 01:51:16.560 --> 01:51:18.640 lives and I know that, and I've said this on 1851 01:51:18.680 --> 01:51:21.960 these airwaves before. You know, we all Worth itself had 1852 01:51:21.960 --> 01:51:23.880 to make sure that all of our advisors were able 1853 01:51:23.920 --> 01:51:26.920 to communicate with clients we needed similar desks setups at home. 1854 01:51:27.000 --> 01:51:28.600 That means I have you know, I have a couple 1855 01:51:28.640 --> 01:51:31.039 extra monitors, and you know, all of our employees are 1856 01:51:31.039 --> 01:51:33.000 able to do that. And we're obviously not the only 1857 01:51:33.039 --> 01:51:35.079 company that did that. I know, iHeart had to do 1858 01:51:35.159 --> 01:51:38.359 the same thing as well. So anything that that that 1859 01:51:38.439 --> 01:51:42.079 causes a curveball usually becomes a catalyst for somebody. Somebody's 1860 01:51:42.079 --> 01:51:44.319 going to take advantage of the opportunity to make some money. 1861 01:51:44.520 --> 01:51:46.000 And that's kind of what we're seeing right now. 1862 01:51:46.399 --> 01:51:46.720 Yeah. 1863 01:51:46.800 --> 01:51:50.000 Well, it's like artificial intelligence is changing the world as well, 1864 01:51:50.039 --> 01:51:51.439 and we're all just going to have to roll with 1865 01:51:51.520 --> 01:51:53.159 it and figure out where we are going to be 1866 01:51:53.399 --> 01:51:56.319 in the you know, with with with this new concept 1867 01:51:56.359 --> 01:51:59.039 and this new technology, it's going to change the world. 1868 01:51:59.079 --> 01:52:01.039 Some people are going to lose jobs and others are 1869 01:52:01.039 --> 01:52:03.319 going to be fine and safe and they're in I 1870 01:52:03.359 --> 01:52:05.279 don't know, the impact is going to be far ranging. 1871 01:52:05.319 --> 01:52:08.119 But we tend to adapt, right, I mean, isn't that 1872 01:52:08.159 --> 01:52:10.800 the point We tend to adapt regardless of circumstances. 1873 01:52:10.920 --> 01:52:13.039 Yeah, think of it as an opportunity if if you 1874 01:52:13.039 --> 01:52:15.359 are super close to something that that AI that you 1875 01:52:15.439 --> 01:52:17.640 feel like AI could easily replace you then it might 1876 01:52:17.680 --> 01:52:19.159 be whove you to figure out how to use it 1877 01:52:19.199 --> 01:52:21.640 in your environment to at least stave off what may 1878 01:52:21.680 --> 01:52:24.119 be inevitable. But at the same time, yeah, these these 1879 01:52:24.279 --> 01:52:26.239 it's going to be an opportunity for somebody. So if 1880 01:52:26.279 --> 01:52:28.000 you're if you're if you're again just off to the 1881 01:52:28.039 --> 01:52:31.279 side worrying about AI changing things, well, then look look 1882 01:52:31.319 --> 01:52:33.600 for what the opportunity is going to create. Where is 1883 01:52:33.640 --> 01:52:35.920 it going to drive industry? And you can look at 1884 01:52:35.920 --> 01:52:38.159 any period in the last couple decades and figure out 1885 01:52:38.199 --> 01:52:40.760 what the catalyst was. Goes back, you know, going, I'm 1886 01:52:40.760 --> 01:52:42.279 just going back to you know, twenty five years to 1887 01:52:42.279 --> 01:52:44.479 when the Internet first became a thing and Yahoo and 1888 01:52:44.560 --> 01:52:47.119 America Online were the big things. Well, that changed everything 1889 01:52:47.159 --> 01:52:49.199 that we did. Then it became for a while it 1890 01:52:49.279 --> 01:52:50.960 was real estate, and then that ran us to two 1891 01:52:51.000 --> 01:52:52.479 thousand and eight. We ran that into the ground, and 1892 01:52:52.479 --> 01:52:55.239 then it became mobility, mobile devices, so on and so forth. 1893 01:52:55.439 --> 01:52:59.039 Everything is a catalyst. It creates an opportunity. Don't always 1894 01:52:59.079 --> 01:53:01.680 look at everything the end of something. Look at it 1895 01:53:01.720 --> 01:53:03.439 as the beginning of something as well. 1896 01:53:03.960 --> 01:53:04.119 Well. 1897 01:53:04.119 --> 01:53:06.840 I understand that in terms of market, we're going to 1898 01:53:06.880 --> 01:53:09.359 get the US retail sales figures out. 1899 01:53:09.399 --> 01:53:10.119 Is that tomorrow? 1900 01:53:11.199 --> 01:53:14.239 Yeah, so big announcements said that that's coming tomorrow. But 1901 01:53:14.319 --> 01:53:16.079 the highlight of the week is gonna be the Federal 1902 01:53:16.079 --> 01:53:18.840 Reserve meeting we've got coming up on June seventeenth, eighteenth. 1903 01:53:18.880 --> 01:53:20.720 This is where char Powell comes out and tells us 1904 01:53:20.760 --> 01:53:23.079 whether he wants higher lower interest rates or no change 1905 01:53:23.119 --> 01:53:25.399 at all. But yes, we've got a number of reports 1906 01:53:25.399 --> 01:53:27.439 coming out this week that will help us with that. 1907 01:53:27.560 --> 01:53:30.640 So we've had some recent soft inflation prints. That's a 1908 01:53:30.640 --> 01:53:33.840 good thing we want that, meaning that, you know, a 1909 01:53:33.880 --> 01:53:36.279 soft inflation print simply means that we were not looking 1910 01:53:36.319 --> 01:53:39.640 at inflation. We're looking at it in a relatively benign manner. 1911 01:53:40.359 --> 01:53:43.720 That has not, however, fundamentally altered what the Fed thinks. 1912 01:53:44.199 --> 01:53:46.800 And there are there are actually a couple Fed governors 1913 01:53:46.840 --> 01:53:49.560 out there who are advocating for no rate cuts at 1914 01:53:49.600 --> 01:53:53.399 all this year. But overall the stance from the Fed 1915 01:53:53.439 --> 01:53:55.239 seems to be we really want to cut rates. It's 1916 01:53:55.279 --> 01:53:57.560 not happening this week, but we do want to drop 1917 01:53:57.640 --> 01:53:59.039 rates a little bit by the end of the year. 1918 01:53:59.079 --> 01:54:01.159 So hopefully we'll st on that pattern. We'll find out 1919 01:54:01.159 --> 01:54:01.880 more later this week. 1920 01:54:01.960 --> 01:54:03.920 Well, I mean I think most people want the rate 1921 01:54:04.000 --> 01:54:06.720 cut just because it's going to mean lower mortgage rates. 1922 01:54:07.039 --> 01:54:09.600 That's typically the one ripple effect that we all feel, 1923 01:54:09.920 --> 01:54:12.319 plus the amount of money we pay on our treasury bills. 1924 01:54:12.840 --> 01:54:16.119 Lower is better because we of course continue to borrow 1925 01:54:16.199 --> 01:54:18.039 and borrow and borrow and have to pay off at 1926 01:54:18.039 --> 01:54:18.920 a higher interest rate. 1927 01:54:19.039 --> 01:54:20.680 So a lot of reasons to want it. 1928 01:54:20.720 --> 01:54:22.479 What's going through the Fed's mind in so far as 1929 01:54:22.520 --> 01:54:25.239 them not cutting rates because you know, inflation has been 1930 01:54:25.520 --> 01:54:28.119 comfortable at what two to two point three percent last 1931 01:54:28.119 --> 01:54:30.840 several reports, which is about where they want it. Are 1932 01:54:30.840 --> 01:54:32.560 they afraid that it's just going to go through the 1933 01:54:32.640 --> 01:54:33.119 roof again? 1934 01:54:33.840 --> 01:54:36.560 Well, yeah, they're afraid of setting up, you know, lighting 1935 01:54:36.600 --> 01:54:40.159 that fuse because it can go quickly. As you just mentioned, 1936 01:54:40.159 --> 01:54:41.800 there are plenty of people out there who really, really 1937 01:54:41.840 --> 01:54:43.840 super want rate cuts. And the definition of that is 1938 01:54:43.840 --> 01:54:45.840 anybody who bought a new house in the last three 1939 01:54:45.880 --> 01:54:47.640 years and had to get a mortgage against it. Yeah, 1940 01:54:47.640 --> 01:54:51.159 because they're paying six to seven percent. But the Federal 1941 01:54:51.159 --> 01:54:53.199 Reserve is still looking at it won't take much to 1942 01:54:53.560 --> 01:54:56.000 pop this off again, because there's enough unrest and enough 1943 01:54:56.000 --> 01:54:57.640 crazy in the world. I mean, look at what we 1944 01:54:57.720 --> 01:54:59.640 just got done talking about there's conflict in the world 1945 01:54:59.680 --> 01:55:02.000 that we'll directly impact oil prices, and it is a 1946 01:55:02.039 --> 01:55:04.000 little bit, you know, not to the point where we 1947 01:55:04.079 --> 01:55:06.680 have to be alarmed yet, but at the same time, 1948 01:55:06.760 --> 01:55:10.439 that's something that obviously will drive inflation. If we have 1949 01:55:10.720 --> 01:55:13.600 this conflict spreads and we wind up with inflation in 1950 01:55:13.680 --> 01:55:15.960 oil prices, that's going to trickle through to everything else 1951 01:55:16.319 --> 01:55:18.960 and compound what has already been going on for five 1952 01:55:19.039 --> 01:55:21.680 years as a result of the of the COVID pandemic. 1953 01:55:21.920 --> 01:55:24.479 So yes, the Federal Reserve is super, super super cautious. 1954 01:55:24.520 --> 01:55:26.560 When they say they want two percent, they want two. 1955 01:55:26.720 --> 01:55:28.319 They don't want two point three, they don't want two 1956 01:55:28.319 --> 01:55:30.319 in a quarter, they want two percent inflation. If we're 1957 01:55:30.319 --> 01:55:33.439 not there, then their concern is anything we do to 1958 01:55:33.600 --> 01:55:36.199 possibly trigger it to go the wrong direction is dangerous. 1959 01:55:36.520 --> 01:55:38.000 Okay, help me understand this. 1960 01:55:38.039 --> 01:55:41.359 I would think that higher prices and of course everything's 1961 01:55:41.359 --> 01:55:44.119 connected to oil. I means stating the obvious everything we 1962 01:55:44.199 --> 01:55:48.720 buy has been shipped somewhere through a semi tractor trailer 1963 01:55:48.920 --> 01:55:52.680 or or something else. So we're enjoying you know, I 1964 01:55:52.720 --> 01:55:54.800 saw the sign on the door Kroger over the weekend. 1965 01:55:54.800 --> 01:55:58.279 You know, if one thousand products lower prices and maybe 1966 01:55:58.439 --> 01:56:00.279 the result the reason we've getting we're going to lower 1967 01:56:00.279 --> 01:56:02.720 prices at the grocery store because it's causing Kroger less 1968 01:56:02.760 --> 01:56:07.359 money to ship things. That suggests more consumption. I mean, 1969 01:56:07.760 --> 01:56:10.760 the prices are lower, aren't people engaged in more economic activity? 1970 01:56:10.840 --> 01:56:13.119 I mean, I don't know. I'm just trying to walk 1971 01:56:13.119 --> 01:56:15.279 through this. How this impacts in the inflation rate? 1972 01:56:15.439 --> 01:56:17.199 Well, I think, but I think we're all on edge 1973 01:56:17.199 --> 01:56:20.199 a little bit, right because because not just the FED 1974 01:56:20.319 --> 01:56:23.439 is concerned about the current economic situation, it's just people 1975 01:56:23.439 --> 01:56:26.399 in general. So you know, I think Kroger is somewhat 1976 01:56:26.399 --> 01:56:29.720 taking advantage of that and any anything, anytime you can 1977 01:56:29.800 --> 01:56:32.960 shine a light on, hey, we are working to reduce prices. 1978 01:56:33.039 --> 01:56:34.760 I've never I saw one of those banners yesterday for 1979 01:56:34.760 --> 01:56:37.039 the first time. I assume they're on all the Kroger's 1980 01:56:37.079 --> 01:56:39.600 out there. But I think you can figure out right away, 1981 01:56:39.840 --> 01:56:41.720 you know, that they haven't found a way to suddenly 1982 01:56:41.720 --> 01:56:45.279 produce everything they do, you know, cheaper. They just perhaps 1983 01:56:45.279 --> 01:56:47.680 have found an opportunity here and there to lower some prices, 1984 01:56:47.680 --> 01:56:49.199 and they're going to shine a bright light on that. 1985 01:56:49.439 --> 01:56:51.439 Maybe they do that all the time, but they don't 1986 01:56:51.439 --> 01:56:53.520 hang banners on the building. The banners, to me are 1987 01:56:53.560 --> 01:56:56.079 a different approach, right, So that just tells me that 1988 01:56:56.119 --> 01:56:58.520 they that they're they're they're looking at their customer base, 1989 01:56:58.520 --> 01:57:00.239 which is all of us, and they're saying that, you 1990 01:57:00.279 --> 01:57:02.600 know what, these people are really really super hypersensitive to 1991 01:57:02.680 --> 01:57:05.439 inflation right now. So any positive step we can take, 1992 01:57:05.520 --> 01:57:07.840 let's shine a very bright light on it. They've probably 1993 01:57:07.880 --> 01:57:09.800 cut prices like this in the past, but haven't hung 1994 01:57:09.800 --> 01:57:11.960 the banners or done the commercials because it wasn't a 1995 01:57:11.960 --> 01:57:13.359 focus of the buying public. 1996 01:57:13.399 --> 01:57:14.039 Well now it is. 1997 01:57:14.439 --> 01:57:17.399 Yeah, and I think we're all painfully aware of how 1998 01:57:17.479 --> 01:57:21.399 much more food and groceries costs generally speaking, and over 1999 01:57:21.399 --> 01:57:25.199 the last several years. I mean we still it just 2000 01:57:25.239 --> 01:57:27.520 boggles my mind because I go grocery shopping with my 2001 01:57:27.560 --> 01:57:30.880 wife every single weekend and I'm still just amazed at 2002 01:57:30.920 --> 01:57:32.640 the cost of like, for example, beef. 2003 01:57:32.720 --> 01:57:34.279 It's just like, are you kidding me? 2004 01:57:35.079 --> 01:57:37.920 So anyhow, maybe it's just a marketing thing going on 2005 01:57:37.920 --> 01:57:38.399 at Kroger's. 2006 01:57:38.439 --> 01:57:39.920 Let's pause. Bring Brian James back. 2007 01:57:40.479 --> 01:57:42.640 I want to mention doctor Fred Pack saw doctor Pack 2008 01:57:42.760 --> 01:57:46.560 last Friday had my semi annual cleaning, and I know 2009 01:57:46.600 --> 01:57:48.000 a lot of people don't like to go to the dentist. 2010 01:57:48.199 --> 01:57:50.960 I just really I like it. Can you walk out, 2011 01:57:51.039 --> 01:57:53.199 you know, all cleaned up, got a good check up, 2012 01:57:53.239 --> 01:57:56.119 everything's good. And of course doctors Peck and Frew will 2013 01:57:56.159 --> 01:57:59.520 take amazing care of you as general dentists, they are outstanding. 2014 01:57:59.560 --> 01:58:02.880 The whole after there were just really wonderful. It's welcoming, 2015 01:58:03.119 --> 01:58:06.359 it's comfortable. If so, if you're a little unsettled about 2016 01:58:06.359 --> 01:58:08.399 going to the dentists, generally you're in the best possible 2017 01:58:08.439 --> 01:58:11.920 hands and pivoting over the best possible hands cosmetic dentistry. 2018 01:58:11.960 --> 01:58:14.399 Doctor Fred Peck is a Fellow with the American Academy 2019 01:58:14.439 --> 01:58:16.960 of Cosmetic Dentistry and doctor Frew working on her way 2020 01:58:16.960 --> 01:58:20.600 to accreditation. You got years of his professional experience at 2021 01:58:20.640 --> 01:58:24.479 her fresh perspectives. Folks love doctor Frux. She is such 2022 01:58:24.520 --> 01:58:28.039 a really charming and wonderful lady. Not to discount Fredpack. 2023 01:58:28.560 --> 01:58:30.520 I mean, he did a chief Fellow status and he's 2024 01:58:30.560 --> 01:58:32.319 only one of three dentists in the entire state of 2025 01:58:32.319 --> 01:58:34.760 Ohio that have made it to that lofty position because 2026 01:58:34.800 --> 01:58:39.239 he does remarkable, life changing cosmetic dentistry. So if you're 2027 01:58:39.279 --> 01:58:41.319 not happy with your smile, you're in the right best 2028 01:58:41.359 --> 01:58:45.039 possible hands to learn more.

Call for an apployment, whether it's for 2030 01:58:47.720 --> 01:58:50.039 cosmetic or general dentistry, you'd be glad you did. It's 2031 01:58:50.039 --> 01:58:52.439 five one three sixty two, one seventy six sixty six, 2032 01:58:52.520 --> 01:58:56.039 five one three six two one seventy six sixty six. 2033 01:58:56.239 --> 01:58:59.159 Fifty five KRC dot Com Our. 2034 01:58:59.039 --> 01:59:02.760 Heightharder Today twenty and fifty five Kercity Talk Station Talking 2035 01:59:02.800 --> 01:59:03.359 Money Matters. 2036 01:59:03.439 --> 01:59:06.560 Brian James Smallworth Financial. It is money Monday. 2037 01:59:09.640 --> 01:59:12.159 But back to the FED cutting or not, as the 2038 01:59:12.199 --> 01:59:13.960 case may be, the interest rate. I know you seem 2039 01:59:14.000 --> 01:59:16.840 to suggest that it's unlikely that it's gonna happen, and 2040 01:59:16.920 --> 01:59:20.319 I understand your point behind that. Clearly, it's not going 2041 01:59:20.399 --> 01:59:22.279 to be a point. I know Donald Trump was screaming 2042 01:59:22.279 --> 01:59:26.039 about them cutting the rates a full point. I mean, 2043 01:59:26.039 --> 01:59:28.119 if there's any cuts, I mean we're probably talking like 2044 01:59:28.159 --> 01:59:29.399 maybe a quarter, right. 2045 01:59:30.479 --> 01:59:32.560 Yeah, if we're lucky at that. 2046 01:59:32.760 --> 01:59:35.399 So right now, there's a handful of people out there 2047 01:59:35.399 --> 01:59:37.159 who believe there might be a modest cup. But I 2048 01:59:37.159 --> 01:59:39.680 think I think those people aren't talking about this meeting 2049 01:59:39.760 --> 01:59:42.479 or this week's meeting. They're talking about the next move 2050 01:59:42.560 --> 01:59:44.640 will be down. We just don't know when it is, 2051 01:59:44.680 --> 01:59:47.359 So that is generally accepted. There's not a whole lot 2052 01:59:47.399 --> 01:59:49.039 going out there with trigger the opposite. So I don't 2053 01:59:49.039 --> 01:59:51.760 think that's exactly worth shattering to say. But the vast 2054 01:59:51.760 --> 01:59:53.880 majority of folks, though, I really don't believe that that's 2055 01:59:53.880 --> 01:59:57.000 coming anytime soon. And whenever we've got scary headlines, that's 2056 01:59:57.000 --> 01:59:58.399 going to cause everybody to pause. 2057 01:59:58.439 --> 01:59:59.960 And there's certainly enough going on in the middle EA 2058 02:00:00.159 --> 02:00:00.880 right now that's going to. 2059 02:00:00.880 --> 02:00:02.520 Make everybody say, you know, let's take a breath and 2060 02:00:02.920 --> 02:00:04.439 just kind of watch and see what comes of this. 2061 02:00:04.760 --> 02:00:07.079 Then we'll make decisions. So if we were at. 2062 02:00:07.000 --> 02:00:09.399 A full two percent, like like the FED truly truly 2063 02:00:09.439 --> 02:00:12.239 really wants, then we might be having a different conversation. 2064 02:00:12.319 --> 02:00:14.560 But I think we're close enough now that I think 2065 02:00:14.600 --> 02:00:17.079 the risk that they sort of perceived that the risk 2066 02:00:17.199 --> 02:00:19.760 is in screwing out the progress as that has been made, 2067 02:00:20.199 --> 02:00:23.079 not so much in being a little late for that 2068 02:00:23.119 --> 02:00:24.239 final couple of rate cuts. 2069 02:00:24.439 --> 02:00:26.640 All right, fair enough, and with regard to the oil 2070 02:00:27.199 --> 02:00:31.840 oil prices, are up merely because of what might happen 2071 02:00:31.920 --> 02:00:34.119 in the Middle East. More broadly speaking, I mean, there 2072 02:00:34.119 --> 02:00:35.880 are a bunch of OPAC nations. We all know where 2073 02:00:35.880 --> 02:00:38.760 that oil comes from, and because they're in the area 2074 02:00:38.840 --> 02:00:41.720 of the conflict between Israel and Iran? Is that it 2075 02:00:42.039 --> 02:00:45.319 because the amount of oil that's in the market hasn't changed, 2076 02:00:45.399 --> 02:00:47.159 has it because Irani and oil I thought that were 2077 02:00:47.159 --> 02:00:49.159 subject to sanction, not supposed to be able to sell it. 2078 02:00:49.760 --> 02:00:52.880 So even if you took Iran completely offline, would that 2079 02:00:52.920 --> 02:00:55.600 have an impact on supplies globally? 2080 02:00:56.760 --> 02:00:58.760 I mean, and anything's going to impact, right, you've changed 2081 02:00:58.760 --> 02:01:00.399 any of the pipelines there, any of the prem missions 2082 02:01:00.399 --> 02:01:02.279 that who you know of who who gets to work 2083 02:01:02.319 --> 02:01:04.239 with whom, then then yeah, that's going to have an impact. 2084 02:01:04.279 --> 02:01:08.840 But I think that the larger issue is that people 2085 02:01:08.880 --> 02:01:11.239 aren't focused on it as much. I mean, think about this. 2086 02:01:11.279 --> 02:01:14.000 We oil prices have been really have really been benign. 2087 02:01:14.079 --> 02:01:15.880 And what I'm really talking about is the price at 2088 02:01:15.880 --> 02:01:18.439 the pump, because that's the first thing we all see, right, 2089 02:01:18.439 --> 02:01:20.359 that's right in your face. At least once a week, 2090 02:01:21.279 --> 02:01:23.079 you have to look at it, You are required to 2091 02:01:23.119 --> 02:01:24.720 look at it. Versus if I grab a loaf of 2092 02:01:24.760 --> 02:01:26.800 bread off the shelf. I'm not necessarily going to look 2093 02:01:26.800 --> 02:01:29.079 at the price tag there, but we all see gas 2094 02:01:29.119 --> 02:01:32.039 prices immediately. That has been pretty benign, and frankly it's 2095 02:01:32.119 --> 02:01:34.359 the last couple of years. This wasn't an issue last year. 2096 02:01:34.560 --> 02:01:37.079 This is usually the time of year where politicians point 2097 02:01:37.119 --> 02:01:40.319 across the aisle from whichever side and blame the opposite 2098 02:01:40.319 --> 02:01:42.359 side for whatever's going on at the gas pump. Right now, 2099 02:01:42.359 --> 02:01:44.560 there's nothing going on at the gas pump, so nobody's 2100 02:01:44.600 --> 02:01:47.720 really talking about it. And I think there our past 2101 02:01:47.920 --> 02:01:50.479 history of looking at the Middle East as the only 2102 02:01:50.600 --> 02:01:53.760 area that can swing oil prices in one way or another. 2103 02:01:53.960 --> 02:01:56.079 It doesn't have the same impact that it used to, 2104 02:01:56.079 --> 02:01:58.399 and I'm not diminishing it. It's certainly the biggest, you know, 2105 02:01:58.640 --> 02:02:00.960 the biggest organization and in the world, with Opak and 2106 02:02:01.000 --> 02:02:03.560 all those countries out there, But with the progress that 2107 02:02:03.600 --> 02:02:05.760 has been made in fracking in the United States, yeah, 2108 02:02:05.920 --> 02:02:07.880 US is one of the largest producers of oil now, 2109 02:02:07.920 --> 02:02:10.000 so we're able to moderate that as now that we 2110 02:02:10.039 --> 02:02:13.279 are a bigger participating producer in that oil market, so 2111 02:02:13.600 --> 02:02:16.359 those smaller regional conflicts don't have the huge impact that 2112 02:02:16.359 --> 02:02:18.119 they used to still big, but not as big. 2113 02:02:18.359 --> 02:02:20.680 Well in Canada also fracs as well. I mean, it's 2114 02:02:20.680 --> 02:02:23.439 amazing what fracking is done, and it's amazing when you 2115 02:02:23.479 --> 02:02:25.600 talk about it along those lines. The United States is 2116 02:02:25.640 --> 02:02:27.880 now the biggest oil producer. I mean, I live most 2117 02:02:27.920 --> 02:02:30.560 of my life through the whole idea that we've reached 2118 02:02:30.560 --> 02:02:32.760 peak oil and that we no longer have and it's 2119 02:02:32.800 --> 02:02:36.760 a diminishing supply. The vast majority of the concept of 2120 02:02:36.800 --> 02:02:40.279 diminishing supply was brought about by well regulation and just 2121 02:02:40.319 --> 02:02:42.960 simply outright refusal to allow us to drill on our 2122 02:02:42.960 --> 02:02:43.560 own land. 2123 02:02:44.039 --> 02:02:46.079 I mean it used to be I think. 2124 02:02:46.119 --> 02:02:49.199 No, I'm no oil expert, but my understanding and my 2125 02:02:49.560 --> 02:02:51.680 tiny monkey brain here of how I understand this is 2126 02:02:51.680 --> 02:02:53.880 that when I grew up, I believe that that oil 2127 02:02:53.960 --> 02:02:56.680 existed as giant lakes in holes in the ground, and 2128 02:02:56.720 --> 02:02:58.920 it was just a pure, big puddle of oil, and 2129 02:02:58.960 --> 02:03:01.560 we sucked it all out. Yeah, now, and so that 2130 02:03:01.680 --> 02:03:03.880 was the concern. Those pockets were going away, we were 2131 02:03:03.880 --> 02:03:06.279 going to deplete them. But then you know, as as 2132 02:03:06.279 --> 02:03:09.359 soon as we figured that out, then once we figured 2133 02:03:09.399 --> 02:03:10.960 fracking out, now we can suck it out of the 2134 02:03:10.960 --> 02:03:13.159 cracks a little more efficiently. And if you read the 2135 02:03:13.279 --> 02:03:16.039 stories of how fracking came to be, there's one guy 2136 02:03:16.079 --> 02:03:17.880 behind all of it who didn't make an extra nickel 2137 02:03:17.920 --> 02:03:20.680 for coming up with this idea. But in any case, 2138 02:03:21.039 --> 02:03:25.560 the originally had to pump chemicals down into the ground 2139 02:03:25.600 --> 02:03:28.079 to flush this stuff out. Then they had to process 2140 02:03:28.119 --> 02:03:31.880 it and get those chemicals back out, and then they 2141 02:03:31.920 --> 02:03:33.720 tried to decided to try, well, let's just do this 2142 02:03:33.760 --> 02:03:35.720 with water because it's cheaper, and so that was a 2143 02:03:35.800 --> 02:03:38.119 cheaper process and a better process. Then they found a 2144 02:03:38.159 --> 02:03:41.399 way to do it without any extra anything. So progress 2145 02:03:41.399 --> 02:03:44.399 and technology always are moving us forward, and that has 2146 02:03:44.479 --> 02:03:46.560 literally changed what we know as the. 2147 02:03:46.520 --> 02:03:50.319 Oil markets amen to that and have entthusians out there. 2148 02:03:50.359 --> 02:03:52.800 You know, we were able to create more food through 2149 02:03:52.840 --> 02:03:56.079 use of technology and advancement in fertilizers and things of 2150 02:03:56.199 --> 02:03:59.560 that nature too. So technology does play an amazing role 2151 02:03:59.640 --> 02:04:02.119 in shifting the reality is of what people claim is 2152 02:04:02.159 --> 02:04:05.119 an absolute crisis at any given moment. Brian James, I 2153 02:04:05.239 --> 02:04:09.119 understand more people are claiming social security. Getting back over 2154 02:04:09.199 --> 02:04:12.119 to your role in helping folks plan for retirement, we'll 2155 02:04:12.119 --> 02:04:14.439 talk about that coming up one more with Brian James 2156 02:04:14.439 --> 02:04:17.439 and Money Monday. First, some pleasant words for Gate of 2157 02:04:17.439 --> 02:04:20.520 Heaven Cemetery, and you know, it is a beautiful place. 2158 02:04:21.239 --> 02:04:23.439 I think we all need an opportunity to unwind. And 2159 02:04:23.680 --> 02:04:25.960 it's more than a cemetery. It's a sacred space where 2160 02:04:25.960 --> 02:04:28.680 the dignity of every person's respected life is honored from 2161 02:04:28.680 --> 02:04:36.079 beginning to end.

Fifty five KRC the talk station injured in 2172 02:05:09.720 --> 02:05:13.119 an accident. There's your channel nine first one and we 2173 02:05:13.279 --> 02:05:16.079 forecast partly cloudy day to day, with a chance of 2174 02:05:16.079 --> 02:05:18.880 storms later this afternoon in eighty three for the high, 2175 02:05:18.880 --> 02:05:21.159 remaining partly cloudy every night. Alough there's a slight chance 2176 02:05:21.199 --> 02:05:24.720 of showers, dropping to sixty five eighty six the high tomorrow, 2177 02:05:25.199 --> 02:05:27.920 with some sun but still an opportunity for some storms. 2178 02:05:28.039 --> 02:05:30.439 Cloudi overnight but dry sixty nine for the low and 2179 02:05:30.439 --> 02:05:33.279 a high of eighty six again on Wednesday, and partly cloudy. 2180 02:05:32.960 --> 02:05:35.720 Skies seventy one. Right now, let's get a traffic update. 2181 02:05:36.920 --> 02:05:39.079 Do you see how traffic center? Right now, over one 2182 02:05:39.119 --> 02:05:42.359 hundred thousand people are waiting and hoping for an organ 2183 02:05:42.359 --> 02:05:44.880 transplant to save their life. Sign up to be an 2184 02:05:44.960 --> 02:05:48.279 organ donor or explorer a living donation at you see 2185 02:05:48.279 --> 02:05:51.960 health dot com slash transplant. He's been two seventy five 2186 02:05:52.079 --> 02:05:56.600 continues to improve between Hamilton Avenue and four after a 2187 02:05:56.600 --> 02:06:00.159 couple of accidents earlier. Southbound seventy five slows down to 2188 02:06:00.239 --> 02:06:02.760 walk on northbound seventy five. So it's just a bit 2189 02:06:02.800 --> 02:06:04.920 at the latter of Chuck king Ram on fifty five 2190 02:06:05.000 --> 02:06:06.640 krs the talk station. 2191 02:06:07.920 --> 02:06:10.600 AY twenty nine on a Monday. One more segment here 2192 02:06:10.600 --> 02:06:12.279 with Money Monday's Brian James. 2193 02:06:13.239 --> 02:06:13.439 Yeah. 2194 02:06:13.479 --> 02:06:16.279 My initial reaction to the topic more people claiming social 2195 02:06:16.279 --> 02:06:18.399 security is like, well, that makes sense because the baby 2196 02:06:18.439 --> 02:06:21.600 boomers are all reaching retirement age. But the key point 2197 02:06:21.680 --> 02:06:23.720 I think in this whole article is now people are 2198 02:06:23.760 --> 02:06:27.399 claiming it earlier than the retirement age, because you and 2199 02:06:27.399 --> 02:06:29.479 I both have talked about this many times, and anybody 2200 02:06:29.479 --> 02:06:32.640 who's paid attention interestingly enough, Brian, I got my you know, 2201 02:06:32.680 --> 02:06:35.319 the Social Security note you get which tells you what 2202 02:06:35.359 --> 02:06:37.960 you should anticipate at retirement age, and you know if 2203 02:06:37.960 --> 02:06:40.319 you wait longer, the amount of money you can get 2204 02:06:40.319 --> 02:06:43.560 if you delay it till like seventy two, increases pretty substantially. 2205 02:06:43.640 --> 02:06:47.479 But notwithstanding that, more people are taking it earlier. 2206 02:06:48.279 --> 02:06:48.479 Yeah. 2207 02:06:49.199 --> 02:06:51.399 Quick correction there, it's not seventy two, it's seventy is 2208 02:06:51.399 --> 02:06:53.880 the oldest seventy I'm sorry. Yeah, thank you, appreciate that 2209 02:06:54.520 --> 02:06:56.720 you're here for job security for me. 2210 02:06:56.880 --> 02:06:57.399 Thank you, sir. 2211 02:06:57.520 --> 02:06:59.199 Put food on my table for a while, one more 2212 02:06:59.239 --> 02:07:03.039 night anyway. Yeah, so this article comes from the San 2213 02:07:03.079 --> 02:07:06.199 Francisco Chronicle. Obviously, social security is a federal ban, meaning 2214 02:07:06.239 --> 02:07:08.560 it applies to everybody, but the San Francisco Chronicles one 2215 02:07:08.560 --> 02:07:10.920 who did the homework this time around. They looked at 2216 02:07:10.960 --> 02:07:13.520 a period from October to April and saw a thirteen 2217 02:07:13.560 --> 02:07:16.800 percent year over year increase in claims. Many of those 2218 02:07:16.800 --> 02:07:19.800 individuals are opting to claim benefits before having reached full 2219 02:07:19.840 --> 02:07:23.279 retirement age of sixty seven. So full retirement age is 2220 02:07:23.359 --> 02:07:25.840 sixty six to sixty seven, depending. 2221 02:07:25.439 --> 02:07:27.239 On the month and year in which you were born. 2222 02:07:27.840 --> 02:07:29.880 But their point is most people are a lot more 2223 02:07:29.920 --> 02:07:31.520 people are claiming it a little bit earlier. 2224 02:07:31.600 --> 02:07:31.760 Now. 2225 02:07:31.760 --> 02:07:33.640 The interesting thing that caught my eye on this is 2226 02:07:33.680 --> 02:07:36.359 the timing. So from October to April, think about what 2227 02:07:36.439 --> 02:07:40.760 has happened then that during that time period we got 2228 02:07:40.800 --> 02:07:43.800 the most rhetoric we've ever gotten out of DC about 2229 02:07:43.880 --> 02:07:48.159 potential changes to Social Security. So my uneducated opinion, which 2230 02:07:48.199 --> 02:07:50.359 comes from sitting at this table doing financial planning and 2231 02:07:50.359 --> 02:07:53.279 answering questions basically all day every day, is that a 2232 02:07:53.319 --> 02:07:55.159 lot of people out there went, you know what, Social 2233 02:07:55.159 --> 02:07:57.359 Security has a hole in the bucket. It doesn't work anyway. 2234 02:07:57.439 --> 02:07:59.439 They I'm sure they're going to be changing it at 2235 02:07:59.439 --> 02:08:02.399 some point. So people decided have decided to turn on 2236 02:08:02.399 --> 02:08:04.800 this bigot a little earlier. Again, I can verify that 2237 02:08:04.840 --> 02:08:07.720 with conversations with my clients themselves. 2238 02:08:07.760 --> 02:08:09.600 You know, and we always run a financial plan. 2239 02:08:09.399 --> 02:08:11.359 To see is it going to hurt them to sacrifice 2240 02:08:11.359 --> 02:08:13.560 that eight percent increase that you get if you don't. 2241 02:08:14.079 --> 02:08:15.720 And in a lot of cases they've decided, you know, 2242 02:08:15.720 --> 02:08:17.279 what the heck with that bird in the hand versus 2243 02:08:17.319 --> 02:08:19.199 two in the bush, I'd rather turn on this bigot 2244 02:08:19.239 --> 02:08:21.960 now than take the risk. I am not yet jumping 2245 02:08:22.039 --> 02:08:24.239 up and down telling people you need to go do 2246 02:08:24.319 --> 02:08:25.720 this now because they're gonna. 2247 02:08:25.479 --> 02:08:27.319 Take it away. That's not gonna happen anyway. 2248 02:08:27.880 --> 02:08:29.720 I still feel like there's going to be time to 2249 02:08:29.760 --> 02:08:32.239 figure out what changes might might be coming. 2250 02:08:32.800 --> 02:08:34.119 So I not quite a crisis. 2251 02:08:34.159 --> 02:08:36.840 But again, it is interesting to say that more people 2252 02:08:36.880 --> 02:08:39.680 are willing to fire file earlier than there have been 2253 02:08:39.720 --> 02:08:40.199 in the past. 2254 02:08:40.880 --> 02:08:44.840 Well, and the panic that people have is a consequence 2255 02:08:44.880 --> 02:08:48.039 of something happening to social security. I mean, I get that. 2256 02:08:48.880 --> 02:08:51.479 I think it's a big royal scam. We've all been 2257 02:08:51.560 --> 02:08:53.359 led to believe that we're going to be comfortable in 2258 02:08:53.399 --> 02:08:56.159 our retirements thanks to the government and our paying into 2259 02:08:56.199 --> 02:08:59.359 so security across our entire lives. But that leads people 2260 02:08:59.399 --> 02:09:03.039 into a false into security, and it sort of suggests 2261 02:09:03.039 --> 02:09:05.279 that you don't need to prepare for your own retirement 2262 02:09:05.319 --> 02:09:08.199 independent of Social Security. That's where your job comes in. 2263 02:09:08.239 --> 02:09:12.720 But I mean, I talk about panic in the streets. 2264 02:09:13.159 --> 02:09:16.600 If social Security went away, how many people would be rioting? 2265 02:09:17.239 --> 02:09:20.399 Yeah, And that's why I'm really not worried about that happening, 2266 02:09:20.439 --> 02:09:22.319 because at the end of the day, we still live 2267 02:09:22.359 --> 02:09:26.000 in a republic where where everybody who makes the decisions 2268 02:09:26.000 --> 02:09:28.680 that impacts people's daily lives, those folks have to run 2269 02:09:28.800 --> 02:09:31.840 for reelection at least every two years, sometimes six years, 2270 02:09:31.840 --> 02:09:34.159 depending on what you're talking about. But so I still 2271 02:09:34.199 --> 02:09:36.159 have to assume that if they decide to punch the 2272 02:09:36.239 --> 02:09:38.880 voting public in the face, they are realizing that they 2273 02:09:38.880 --> 02:09:40.560 could be ending their political careers. 2274 02:09:40.600 --> 02:09:41.439 Maybe that's their intent. 2275 02:09:41.479 --> 02:09:42.960 Who knows, Maybe they just want to get their shots 2276 02:09:42.960 --> 02:09:45.760 in and move away based off of their their political 2277 02:09:45.760 --> 02:09:47.439 belief I don't think that's gonna be the case. Though 2278 02:09:48.000 --> 02:09:53.039 pretty lucrative to be a congressional leader here. So I'm 2279 02:09:53.119 --> 02:09:55.560 not overly concerned that we are going to have an 2280 02:09:55.640 --> 02:09:58.279 environment where there is no social security because that is 2281 02:09:58.319 --> 02:10:01.319 the one of the largest chunks of our population. We 2282 02:10:01.359 --> 02:10:03.920 have an aging population, so the people who are receiving 2283 02:10:03.920 --> 02:10:06.119 those dollars in real time are the ones who are 2284 02:10:06.159 --> 02:10:08.159 going to get out there and vote. Because they're paying attention, 2285 02:10:08.800 --> 02:10:12.399 you can probably do more damage to the younger generations. Unfortunately, 2286 02:10:12.439 --> 02:10:14.199 that's not a good thing. But I think that if 2287 02:10:14.199 --> 02:10:16.239 we have to sacrifice something, it's probably going to lean 2288 02:10:16.279 --> 02:10:19.880 that direction. However, realistically, I think we're going to eventually 2289 02:10:19.920 --> 02:10:21.840 we're going to realize that, hey, this just doesn't work. 2290 02:10:21.880 --> 02:10:23.439 We can get away with it a few more years. Right, 2291 02:10:23.439 --> 02:10:28.319 We're not in dire straits yet, but if nothing else 2292 02:10:28.399 --> 02:10:30.279 is done, then the only change that needs to be 2293 02:10:30.319 --> 02:10:33.159 made is benefits need to be reduced by about thirty percent, 2294 02:10:33.239 --> 02:10:35.760 which is a chunk, don't get me wrong. However, it's 2295 02:10:35.800 --> 02:10:38.520 not one hundred percent. That's the tweet you see. That's 2296 02:10:38.520 --> 02:10:41.319 the headline. Social Security is going bankrupt. No, that's not 2297 02:10:41.399 --> 02:10:44.279 the case. There is simply in about seven or eight years, 2298 02:10:44.520 --> 02:10:47.760 there will be less coming in than is going out. 2299 02:10:48.199 --> 02:10:50.119 That's the issue. But that doesn't mean there'll be nothing 2300 02:10:50.119 --> 02:10:52.239 coming in. I guarantee you your paycheck will still have 2301 02:10:52.279 --> 02:10:54.239 a fight a line on it in twenty thirty three. 2302 02:10:54.279 --> 02:10:55.880 You'll still be paying payroll taxes. 2303 02:10:56.359 --> 02:11:00.880 Yes, indeed, But you know the panic and concern over 2304 02:11:00.960 --> 02:11:05.039 it might end up getting more people to start, you know, 2305 02:11:05.119 --> 02:11:08.000 preparing for their own retirement on using their own means 2306 02:11:08.039 --> 02:11:11.479 and allocating more of their salary to a retirement program 2307 02:11:11.520 --> 02:11:14.920 and investing it so they have something they can independently 2308 02:11:15.039 --> 02:11:18.479 have in their corner when they get to retirement age. 2309 02:11:18.640 --> 02:11:21.239 Oh yeah, no, hopefully, I hope so, I hope that 2310 02:11:21.319 --> 02:11:24.479 will be the reaction. And Social Security was never intended 2311 02:11:24.479 --> 02:11:28.560 to be. It's not comfortable retirement security. It's social security 2312 02:11:28.640 --> 02:11:30.680 meaning a way to put a meal on the table. 2313 02:11:30.760 --> 02:11:33.119 That's really all it was ever intended to be. It's 2314 02:11:33.159 --> 02:11:36.119 now become something that can supplement a comfortable retirement and 2315 02:11:36.159 --> 02:11:40.319 make it even more comfortable. And yeah, it's got a 2316 02:11:40.319 --> 02:11:42.560 different role than it did it originally had when it 2317 02:11:42.600 --> 02:11:43.600 came out, that's for sure. 2318 02:11:43.680 --> 02:11:45.880 Well in the world when Social Security was created, there 2319 02:11:45.920 --> 02:11:47.880 are a whole lot more pensions out there with the 2320 02:11:47.960 --> 02:11:52.680 employers providing you know, that independent means of money in 2321 02:11:52.760 --> 02:11:54.680 senior years, and those have all gone the way of 2322 02:11:54.720 --> 02:11:56.600 the dead, or at least the vast majority of them have. 2323 02:11:57.279 --> 02:11:57.680 Anyway. 2324 02:11:57.680 --> 02:12:00.840 Brian James always a wonderful conversation.

Happy, 2357 02:13:26.199 --> 02:13:30.840 Happy Monday. Returning. We've been talking to Todd Sledge from 2358 02:13:30.840 --> 02:13:32.880 the sinc ANIAVA for years and I'm going to miss 2359 02:13:32.880 --> 02:13:35.560 when you retire, Todd. But welcome back to the morning show. 2360 02:13:35.560 --> 02:13:37.880 And you got some information from my veteran friends. And 2361 02:13:38.000 --> 02:13:40.600 let me start with a question from Patrick, who's a listener. 2362 02:13:41.680 --> 02:13:43.960 Ask the VA folks if they have an et A 2363 02:13:44.119 --> 02:13:48.359 for the Vine Street Hospitals main elevators repair slash replacement. 2364 02:13:48.680 --> 02:13:50.760 I don't want to catch you off guard, Todd, welcome back, 2365 02:13:50.760 --> 02:13:52.520 but do you know the answer to that question? 2366 02:13:54.039 --> 02:13:57.600 Well, I wish I had an answer. Brian the project's 2367 02:13:57.600 --> 02:14:00.479 taken a little bit longer than we expected to relate 2368 02:14:00.520 --> 02:14:04.880 it to parts, oh that we can't get. Yeah, these elevators, 2369 02:14:04.880 --> 02:14:07.239 you know, these elevator shafts date back to the nineteen 2370 02:14:07.319 --> 02:14:11.239 fifties and so you know they've been maintained and repaired 2371 02:14:11.239 --> 02:14:14.239 over the many, many years. But yeah, it's a it's 2372 02:14:14.239 --> 02:14:18.199 a part issue because of the uniqueness. Yeah, the uniqueness 2373 02:14:18.199 --> 02:14:21.520 of these elevators. But hopefully we'll get those back up 2374 02:14:21.520 --> 02:14:23.960 and run. And we had a we had some flooding 2375 02:14:23.960 --> 02:14:27.840 to go through some of the shafts several weeks ago. Yeah, 2376 02:14:28.159 --> 02:14:30.760 still we're maintaining the other We got other elevators that 2377 02:14:30.800 --> 02:14:33.319 folks can use, but they're not as uh, they're not 2378 02:14:33.359 --> 02:14:35.960 as convenient for our veterans as they need to be. 2379 02:14:36.000 --> 02:14:38.039 But yeah, we're aggressively working on that issue. 2380 02:14:38.159 --> 02:14:39.479 Okay, now I'm sure you are. 2381 02:14:39.560 --> 02:14:42.279 It's just you know, I'm I don't know that I'm 2382 02:14:42.319 --> 02:14:44.840 shocked to find out that, you know, parts aren't available 2383 02:14:44.840 --> 02:14:46.680 for something that was built that long ago. Is that 2384 02:14:46.720 --> 02:14:50.359 just may guess that makes sense, but repair they must. 2385 02:14:50.399 --> 02:14:54.760 So anyhow, we have two things to talk about, because 2386 02:14:54.800 --> 02:14:58.640 they sound similar, but they're completely different. The Compact Rack 2387 02:14:59.079 --> 02:15:01.640 and the packed. So let's remind my listeners in the 2388 02:15:01.680 --> 02:15:05.800 veteran community about the Compact Act what it's all about 2389 02:15:05.840 --> 02:15:07.000 and what they need to know. 2390 02:15:08.199 --> 02:15:10.079 Yeah, I'm glad we start with that when first, Brian, 2391 02:15:10.119 --> 02:15:13.000 because I know, I know you've always stressed the importance 2392 02:15:13.039 --> 02:15:15.479 of veterans to seek out their mental health needs amen 2393 02:15:15.920 --> 02:15:17.960 from us, you know, when it's needed. And so the 2394 02:15:18.039 --> 02:15:21.760 Compact Act was a major legislative change, one of the 2395 02:15:21.760 --> 02:15:24.239 two that we're going to talk about today, that occurred 2396 02:15:24.319 --> 02:15:26.960 roughly about over a little over a year ago, where 2397 02:15:27.439 --> 02:15:31.239 at any time when a veteran is in distress, suicidal ideation, 2398 02:15:31.880 --> 02:15:34.960 having to do some mental health issues that are just 2399 02:15:35.159 --> 02:15:38.479 you know, disrupting their life, instead of needing to get 2400 02:15:38.479 --> 02:15:41.279 directly to a VA for care in that immediate time 2401 02:15:41.319 --> 02:15:44.920 and urgency, they can go anywhere in the community to 2402 02:15:45.000 --> 02:15:48.279 get that care and get stabilized to where they are 2403 02:15:48.439 --> 02:15:51.039 more comfortable, they're out of the situations that they're in, 2404 02:15:51.279 --> 02:15:54.800 and then that community hospital, that private hospital, or that 2405 02:15:54.880 --> 02:15:58.000 health agency will work with us to get the veterans 2406 02:15:58.000 --> 02:16:00.800 transferred over to the right VA care. All of that 2407 02:16:00.920 --> 02:16:03.199 is at no cost. So that's the big that's the 2408 02:16:03.239 --> 02:16:05.880 biggest change. So the two biggest changes under the Compact 2409 02:16:05.960 --> 02:16:10.359 Act are the convenience of getting the kindly care that 2410 02:16:10.399 --> 02:16:13.000 you needed no cost to the veteran. And to date, 2411 02:16:13.279 --> 02:16:17.079 since this legislation went in, we've helped closely over eleven 2412 02:16:17.119 --> 02:16:20.760 hundred veterans in doing that. So that's that's been a big, 2413 02:16:20.840 --> 02:16:23.199 big boat bonus for us and also our veterans in 2414 02:16:23.199 --> 02:16:25.239 the community when they need to care at the right time. 2415 02:16:25.600 --> 02:16:28.439 That's great, and that's the opportunity to remind folks. I 2416 02:16:28.479 --> 02:16:31.800 interviewed a guy named Taylor Gray, veteran, and he apparently 2417 02:16:32.040 --> 02:16:38.200 was a Delta Force just constantly adrenaline filled in doing 2418 02:16:38.239 --> 02:16:41.680 all kinds of dangerous combat missions, and he got severely 2419 02:16:41.680 --> 02:16:43.920 wounded in one of his operations, and of course he 2420 02:16:43.959 --> 02:16:48.760 wasn't able to continue service. He could not deal with 2421 02:16:49.520 --> 02:16:50.799 what you and I deal with on a day to 2422 02:16:50.840 --> 02:16:53.200 day basis, which is a low key, for comparatively low 2423 02:16:53.200 --> 02:16:56.000 stress environment. So he had to kind of work through 2424 02:16:56.000 --> 02:16:58.559 his problems and figure out why he was what he was. 2425 02:16:58.600 --> 02:17:03.600 But self destructive behavior, your substance abuse, issues with you know, relationships, 2426 02:17:03.639 --> 02:17:06.239 and so he really told a great story about exactly 2427 02:17:06.280 --> 02:17:09.040 what so many veterans are experiencing, so you've got the 2428 02:17:09.079 --> 02:17:11.360 help there at the VA with the Compact Act. You 2429 02:17:11.399 --> 02:17:14.319 of course have the Veterans Crisis Line which is ninety 2430 02:17:14.319 --> 02:17:16.760 eight eight and then press one when you get connected. 2431 02:17:16.799 --> 02:17:20.559 That's an instant opportunity. But you know, understanding the Compact 2432 02:17:20.600 --> 02:17:22.360 Act and knowing that the good people at the VA 2433 02:17:22.440 --> 02:17:24.559 are there for your mental health is just a great thing. 2434 02:17:24.559 --> 02:17:26.399 And I'm glad you're able to bring that up and 2435 02:17:26.399 --> 02:17:28.479 can get a copy of Forged in Chaos by Tyler 2436 02:17:28.520 --> 02:17:31.239 Gray on my website. All right, let's pivot over to 2437 02:17:31.479 --> 02:17:34.680 the Packed Act. Something completely different. 2438 02:17:35.639 --> 02:17:38.559 Yeah, something completely different. And then it was out before 2439 02:17:38.680 --> 02:17:42.040 the Compact Act. And this relates back to a couple 2440 02:17:42.079 --> 02:17:44.760 of years ago where we really were stressing veterans to 2441 02:17:44.959 --> 02:17:48.559 the It changed enrollment number one for certain level of veterans, 2442 02:17:48.920 --> 02:17:53.159 but also the toxic exposures that veterans had been exposed to, 2443 02:17:53.239 --> 02:17:56.920 whether you were in combat or not in combat, you know, 2444 02:17:56.959 --> 02:17:59.959 the different exposures that are military folks Brian are exposed 2445 02:18:00.040 --> 02:18:02.559 to on a daily basis. This is what the VA 2446 02:18:02.639 --> 02:18:05.239 wanted to focus on. You know, you're talking not beyond 2447 02:18:05.239 --> 02:18:08.200 the big ones, the burn pits, the oil fires and 2448 02:18:08.239 --> 02:18:13.639 agent orange. There's pesticides, diesel fuel, jet fuel, the different 2449 02:18:13.719 --> 02:18:17.399 cleaning solutions things on Navy ships. So all these things 2450 02:18:17.479 --> 02:18:20.719 you know, could have a result into some future medical 2451 02:18:20.760 --> 02:18:23.959 condition that you know. There's no family history too, it's 2452 02:18:24.040 --> 02:18:26.799 not tied to anything other than your exposure in the military. 2453 02:18:26.840 --> 02:18:30.639 So that healthcare piece of it getting a toxic exposure 2454 02:18:30.680 --> 02:18:34.200 screen which is a simple questionnaire type screening that goes 2455 02:18:34.239 --> 02:18:37.520 through your primary care physician at the VA, and then 2456 02:18:37.559 --> 02:18:40.440 the other side of that is sitting down and talking 2457 02:18:40.479 --> 02:18:44.840 with a certified veteran service officer. I focus a lot 2458 02:18:44.879 --> 02:18:49.559 about going to the county offices Hamilton County, Claremont County, 2459 02:18:49.920 --> 02:18:52.239 and Butler County as well to talk to those folks 2460 02:18:52.239 --> 02:18:56.360 about filing for any type of level of disability compensation 2461 02:18:56.479 --> 02:19:00.719 that could be related to that toxic exposure. And for 2462 02:19:00.840 --> 02:19:04.520 some veterans who are who unfortunately don't become eligible because 2463 02:19:04.559 --> 02:19:09.239 of various things, a PACKDACK submission, a new rating of 2464 02:19:09.399 --> 02:19:11.440 some sort can get that veteran the care in the 2465 02:19:11.559 --> 02:19:13.879 VA that they get the result to. So again it's 2466 02:19:13.920 --> 02:19:16.079 a little complex. This is why I wanted to focus 2467 02:19:16.120 --> 02:19:18.760 on these things. But come and talk to our experts 2468 02:19:18.799 --> 02:19:22.959 about those, particularly a pack deck, because I have seen major, 2469 02:19:23.280 --> 02:19:27.159 major influences, major changes happen with veterans changing their life, 2470 02:19:27.200 --> 02:19:31.079 not also you know, monetarily with their compensation and disability, 2471 02:19:31.360 --> 02:19:34.120 but the healthcare that's related to that's very important. And 2472 02:19:34.360 --> 02:19:36.319 two of the big major ones a lot of veterans 2473 02:19:36.360 --> 02:19:39.959 I've learned as a result of toxic toxic exposure is 2474 02:19:40.040 --> 02:19:43.799 ryaniis and cyanidis. Oh, you know, just totally out of 2475 02:19:43.799 --> 02:19:46.000 the blue. You know, it's like, never had these problems 2476 02:19:46.319 --> 02:19:49.079 before I went in. There's no family history to it, 2477 02:19:49.120 --> 02:19:51.879 and it's a lot of that's related to the toxic exposures. 2478 02:19:52.040 --> 02:19:54.479 Oh about that, and you know that's obviously something that 2479 02:19:54.479 --> 02:19:57.639 would not come immediately to mind, right exactly. 2480 02:19:57.959 --> 02:20:00.319 Well, and that's that's the point of the packed Does 2481 02:20:00.399 --> 02:20:03.239 a lot of these i'll call secondary or they call 2482 02:20:03.319 --> 02:20:07.159 associated conditions you would never think would be related to 2483 02:20:07.600 --> 02:20:10.200 just normal stuff.

I understand you got a 2522 02:22:03.280 --> 02:22:06.479 new pilot program to try to track them down. 2523 02:22:07.920 --> 02:22:08.840 Yeah, we do, Brian. 2524 02:22:09.319 --> 02:22:12.639 You know you and I together have collectively worked on 2525 02:22:13.120 --> 02:22:15.520 trying to make sure we all of our veterans aware 2526 02:22:15.520 --> 02:22:18.760 of their benefits. And I've always appreciated that relationship with 2527 02:22:18.799 --> 02:22:21.719 you and I love it so for the me too, 2528 02:22:21.879 --> 02:22:24.559 absolutely me too. So for the last two years, this 2529 02:22:24.719 --> 02:22:26.600 is nothing new to the to the new to the 2530 02:22:26.639 --> 02:22:29.360 marketing world, but for the last two years, I've been 2531 02:22:29.719 --> 02:22:33.840 trying to find a company that specifically could give me 2532 02:22:34.479 --> 02:22:37.719 data on households of veterans here in the Tri State 2533 02:22:37.760 --> 02:22:41.040 area through a through a customer resource management system, which 2534 02:22:41.079 --> 02:22:44.920 is every business uses, and we finally found one and 2535 02:22:45.159 --> 02:22:47.920 they were able to identify veteran households here in the 2536 02:22:47.959 --> 02:22:51.239 Tri State area, which we serve fifteen counties Brian that 2537 02:22:51.360 --> 02:22:54.639 you know, through three different states, Kentucky, Indiana, and Ohio. 2538 02:22:55.200 --> 02:22:59.239 And with this program, with that veteran data, we're able 2539 02:22:59.280 --> 02:23:03.280 to now and text messages directly to veterans that are 2540 02:23:03.319 --> 02:23:06.719 not enrolled in VA and ask them if they would 2541 02:23:06.760 --> 02:23:09.479 like to be contacted about their benefits, and if they 2542 02:23:09.520 --> 02:23:11.680 press one, we get that data back and then we 2543 02:23:11.760 --> 02:23:16.360 will be reaching out to them and scheduling them appointments 2544 02:23:16.399 --> 02:23:21.440 to see in eligibility specialists at the closest community based 2545 02:23:21.440 --> 02:23:24.280 out patient clinic that we have. This is a game changer. 2546 02:23:24.319 --> 02:23:27.440 I didn't really realize how much possible data was out there, 2547 02:23:27.479 --> 02:23:30.680 but our first round of this pilot, that was close 2548 02:23:30.719 --> 02:23:34.200 to thirty thousand pieces of data of veteran households that 2549 02:23:34.280 --> 02:23:37.920 we could reach and there's about fifteen thousand, or almost 2550 02:23:37.959 --> 02:23:40.559 half of that data of veterans who are not enrolled 2551 02:23:40.559 --> 02:23:43.239 that are interested. So you know, our current marker of 2552 02:23:43.319 --> 02:23:46.520 treating forty three thousand veterans. We have the potential of 2553 02:23:46.559 --> 02:23:49.360 finding those veterans that are not using us, engaging them 2554 02:23:49.360 --> 02:23:52.719 and getting them into the healthcare system for various kinds 2555 02:23:52.719 --> 02:23:55.280 of things that they can use us for. Because I'm 2556 02:23:55.319 --> 02:23:57.799 always talking about how the VA can fit into that 2557 02:23:57.879 --> 02:24:02.840 personal healthcare portfolio. Benefit non insurance has a benefit to them, 2558 02:24:03.159 --> 02:24:05.600 and we're really excited about this. So if veterans, if 2559 02:24:05.600 --> 02:24:09.079 you're received a text message it seems suspicious, we all 2560 02:24:09.079 --> 02:24:10.479 get those, Brian, we all get these. 2561 02:24:10.559 --> 02:24:16.399 Really, that's exactly what I was thinking of, Todd Tech Fridays, Dave. 2562 02:24:16.920 --> 02:24:20.159 Yeah, yeah, so we we're what we've done, We've taken 2563 02:24:20.200 --> 02:24:22.319 this a step further. If you've gotten a text message 2564 02:24:22.319 --> 02:24:24.479 that talked about being a veteran and talking about the 2565 02:24:24.479 --> 02:24:27.280 Cincinnati VA, you can go to our website and on 2566 02:24:27.319 --> 02:24:30.319 our eligibility section you will see that we are validating 2567 02:24:30.360 --> 02:24:33.040 that yes, this is coming directly from us, and this 2568 02:24:33.200 --> 02:24:35.360 is real, and we wud love for you to respond. 2569 02:24:35.280 --> 02:24:38.200 Well, and you know, the impetus to get to the 2570 02:24:38.280 --> 02:24:40.920 VA's website.
