Speaker 1: Portions of The Bill Cunningham Show may be pre recorded.
Speaker 2: Willie Brove You by Choice Hotels, Econo Lodge and Roadway
Speaker 2: In Hotels are serving up double points for every qualifying
Speaker 2: stay book at Choice Hotels dot com. Now here's the
Speaker 2: man who's been recognized as radio's best, the recipient of
Speaker 2: not one, but two prestigious Marconi Awards for his broadcast exodence,
Speaker 2: the one and only Bill Cunningham.
Speaker 1: All right, Billy cunning Into Great American Welcome this Sunday night,
Speaker 1: Durha Memorial Day weekend. In fact, even sixty minutes at
Speaker 1: a fair report a few hours ago on the sacrifice
Speaker 1: of American soldiers. It was a story about a twenty
Speaker 1: nine year old sealed team member who killed himself at
Speaker 1: the age of twenty nine, and his father, who names Larkin,
Speaker 1: who's a hero's working his damness to make sure that
Speaker 1: it's understood what happens through traumatic brain injury. It might
Speaker 1: not be one event like an ied, could be thousands
Speaker 1: of bullets fired with the sound and the reverberations and
Speaker 1: one good thing. Every now and then, sixty minutes has
Speaker 1: a lucid report, and tonight was one of them. But
Speaker 1: I first, want to begin by acknowledging the sacrifice of
Speaker 1: about one point one million Americans who gave their life,
Speaker 1: which is why we celebrate Memorial Day, which is tomorrow
Speaker 1: Memorial Day Week. And hopefully you had time to attend
Speaker 1: to parade or go to a cemetery where the veterans
Speaker 1: the dead had been buried, and remember what they've done
Speaker 1: for us, and take advantage of the opportunities they provided,
Speaker 1: especially also the family members left behind right now, there's
Speaker 1: about twenty five thousand spouse is who are living right
Speaker 1: now with a loved one who died giving his life
Speaker 1: for this country, along with forty thousand parents and grandparents
Speaker 1: and children and left behind. And we can never do
Speaker 1: enough for our veterans. And just remember today it's not
Speaker 1: Veterans Day, it's not Independence Day. It's to acknowledge the
Speaker 1: dead by one point one million who died in sacrificing.
Speaker 1: Later on, Danny Gleeson, my executive producer, is going to
Speaker 1: play a little two and a half three minute cut
Speaker 1: from We Are Soldiers with Mel Gibson, which is a
Speaker 1: fabulous recitation of the hero the heroic values of the
Speaker 1: American soldier. And if you have time, Tony to look
Speaker 1: at the remarks of General Douglas MacArthur in nineteen sixty
Speaker 1: four when he received the Thayer Award. It's the duty,
Speaker 1: honor and country speech and download it, read it, and
Speaker 1: it describes definitively what the American soldier is. But thanks
Speaker 1: for listening. As you travel thither and fro. There's something
Speaker 1: like fifty million Americans going somewhere tonight, and hopefully you
Speaker 1: have a safe exit in return to your home. Now
Speaker 1: let's continue. We have lots of coming in tonight, including
Speaker 1: a call from Israel relative a man there named Neir Solomon,
Speaker 1: who is going to comment on the murder of those
Speaker 1: two diplomats in the Israeli embassy about a week ago,
Speaker 1: and the reaction of Iran seemingly backing the murderer and
Speaker 1: offering praise for what the murderer did, you know, Free Palestine, Free,
Speaker 1: free Palestine, that kind of stuff. And I have a
Speaker 1: guest come on to address himself to that. Plus later
Speaker 1: later on, as Leland Vinterck of News Nation about Biden's
Speaker 1: a mental decline, more and more came out over the
Speaker 1: weekend after the book of Jake Tapper. I think my
Speaker 1: good friend Sean Hannity calls him fake Jake Tapper, who
Speaker 1: kept secret the information he knew about Joe Biden's mental
Speaker 1: decline beginning about five or six years ago from his
Speaker 1: employer CNN, you know, the Clinton New Network, the cable
Speaker 1: news network of which he's a proud The face of
Speaker 1: the News network is Jake Tapper. He didn't tell us
Speaker 1: the truth about what he knew until he could write
Speaker 1: a book and get paid for it. That's wonderful. So
Speaker 1: we have a guest coming up later to address himself
Speaker 1: to that, and also the great Scott Powell as a
Speaker 1: story up on Discovery Network and also on Newsmax and
Speaker 1: my friend Christopher Ruddy in which we're going to discuss
Speaker 1: with you the remarks of Senator Ron Johnson and Wisconsin.
Speaker 1: Of course, you and I have great respect for conservatism.
Speaker 1: We have great respect for those who want to build
Speaker 1: and not destroy. We have great respect for those who
Speaker 1: want to pay and not be freeloaders. We have great
Speaker 1: respect for the achievers in our society and not those
Speaker 1: are right on the back of the achievers. And Senator
Speaker 1: Ron Johnson did an interview on news Max and what
Speaker 1: he said repeatedly and every every time I listen to
Speaker 1: Ron Johnson of Wisconsin, and he makes it, he makes
Speaker 1: more sense. He makes a point that despite the efforts
Speaker 1: of Donald Trump and Speaker Johnson and a majority leader
Speaker 1: Thuon John Thune to raid in federal spending, they haven't
Speaker 1: done it. Every time I hear or see a so
Speaker 1: called newsperson saying there's cuts to medicaid, I want to
Speaker 1: jump through the listening device or my TV screen because
Speaker 1: it's a lie. There are no cuts to anything in
Speaker 1: the federal program. Federal budget only increases. Ron Johnson points
Speaker 1: out some facts. You know, facts are stubborn things. And
Speaker 1: number one, during the eight years of Barack Hussein Obama,
Speaker 1: he averaged one point nine trillion dollars of deficits. So
Speaker 1: write that down if you can, Obama, I'm sorry, I'm
Speaker 1: want to rescind the record. Obama averaged nine hundred and
Speaker 1: ten billion dollars of deficits per year over eight years.
Speaker 1: That was about approximately eight trillion dollars in deficit spending
Speaker 1: adding to the budget. And then, of course Donald Trump
Speaker 1: was elected for four pretty good years. In the first
Speaker 1: four years, the Donald Trump, as you may know, averaged
Speaker 1: on averaged of two point two trillion dollars. He blames
Speaker 1: the last year, of course was COVID, but nonetheless, approximately,
Speaker 1: Donald Trump in eight years his first term added eight
Speaker 1: more trillion dollars to the federal deficit. And so it's
Speaker 1: eight years with Obama, eight years with Trump, and then
Speaker 1: Biden comes into office, and those around in the Pollot
Speaker 1: Bureau around Joe Biden added about another over four years,
Speaker 1: eight trillion dollars. So since twenty eight we've added about
Speaker 1: twenty four trillion dollars to the national debt. And so
Speaker 1: Senator Johnson makes the point. He says, quote, I'm sorry
Speaker 1: the house build to probably add, I've calculated about four
Speaker 1: trillion more. You're saying that's on top of already the
Speaker 1: budget at for trillion over the next ten years. That
Speaker 1: means Donald Trump's going to average in his second four
Speaker 1: years another eight trillion dollars in deficit spending. And I
Speaker 1: know you recall the chainsaw and doze cuts, all of
Speaker 1: which are very important, no question about it. Those who's
Speaker 1: done a great job. In fact, I'm looking at a
Speaker 1: story here with doctor Oz who's discovered the something to
Speaker 1: the range of twenty four billion dollars in double payments
Speaker 1: by Medicaid twenty four billion. That's a lot of money.
Speaker 1: Doze talks about savings of one hundred and fifty billion, Well,
Speaker 1: that's a lot of money. But from Senator Johnson's perspective, quote,
Speaker 1: one of my disappointments with what the House process is
Speaker 1: about the number we have even heard of one point
Speaker 1: five trillion. That's every year for ten years, one hundred
Speaker 1: and fifty billion. That's one point five trillion, which is great,
Speaker 1: he says, but that's a drop of the bucket. It's
Speaker 1: a rounding error. It's not that important a number. He
Speaker 1: says that ten years from now, on the glide path
Speaker 1: that we're on, we're gonna add two trillion dollars a year,
Speaker 1: which is twenty trillion dollars more. On top of thirty seven,
Speaker 1: you're looking at fifty seven trillion dollars in non serviceable debt.
Speaker 1: And you know what happens when you have non serviceable debt,
Speaker 1: it's bankruptcy or default. There's got to be an urgency
Speaker 1: and can it be done? Absolutely? Will it be done?
Speaker 1: Absolutely not. In fact, the two members of the House
Speaker 1: that voted no was my guest last Sunday, Congressman Warren Davidson,
Speaker 1: who told you, I'm not going to vote for this
Speaker 1: thing because it doesn't cut federal spending at all. In fact,
Speaker 1: he said it increases it. Same way with Thomas Massy
Speaker 1: of Northern Kentucky, another one of my friends and congressman.
Speaker 1: In fact, the two congressmen who voted against it our
Speaker 1: guest on this show, and I know them both well,
Speaker 1: and they said, at some point, we got to acknowledge
Speaker 1: that we don't have the money. Now. When I watched
Speaker 1: Bill Hammer and others talk to Scott Bissett, the Treasury secretary,
Speaker 1: he talked about dynamic scoring, which is, how do you
Speaker 1: know the increased economic activity that will be caused by
Speaker 1: these minuscal tax cuts and without cause more money to
Speaker 1: come into the treasury. The answer is, yes, it probably will,
Speaker 1: but the spending is the problem. Give you an example
Speaker 1: in twenty twenty one, four years ago. We're not talking
Speaker 1: about nineteen fifties. I'm talking twenty twenty one. The federal
Speaker 1: spending in that year was four point seven trillion dollars
Speaker 1: in twenty twenty one. Beginning in October of twenty twenty five,
Speaker 1: what about four months from now, it's going to be
Speaker 1: about seven trillion dollars. How's that possible? And in fact,
Speaker 1: the irs will bring in this year about five trillion
Speaker 1: dollars in taxes and tariff. Some people like you and
Speaker 1: I great majority of us pay our taxes. I think
Speaker 1: taxes are rent to live in the greatest country in
Speaker 1: the world. So yes, So if we return the federal
Speaker 1: budget to twenty twenty spending levels, we have about a
Speaker 1: four hundred billion dollar deficit every year. But we can't
Speaker 1: do that, not even close. So make no mistake about it.
Speaker 1: I love Ron Johnson. I love what he stands for.
Speaker 1: And we have to limit the size and the scope
Speaker 1: of government and make it work efficiently and effectively. And
Speaker 1: the spending has got to stop. We don't have a
Speaker 1: revenue problem, we have a spending problem. And when there's
Speaker 1: little more tax cuts being administered, maybe five point one
Speaker 1: trillion in income tax receipts might be five point two
Speaker 1: trillion or five point three trillion, But then we're going
Speaker 1: to spend north of seven trillion dollars on an annual budget.
Speaker 1: Can we return to the spending levels of twenty twenty one?
Speaker 1: The answer is no. The media will not allow it,
Speaker 1: Democrats don't want it. And ninety nine percent of Republicans
Speaker 1: don't want it. They want to spend money on different
Speaker 1: things that Democrats spend money on. And it's a miracle.
Speaker 3: You know.
Speaker 1: One of the things in life is you want to
Speaker 1: maintain the status quo, and you're a complete denial. And
Speaker 1: we have ten trillion dollars in debt borrowed at two
Speaker 1: percent coming due in the next nine months, ten trillion,
Speaker 1: and that's going to triple the interest rate paid on
Speaker 1: those funds. Right now, we pay over one trillion dollars
Speaker 1: a year just an interest on the national debt, which
Speaker 1: isn't very sexy, but it's real numbers. And we're on
Speaker 1: the glide path under Donald Trump, and I'm sure the
Speaker 1: next president to keep borrowing two trillion dollars every year.
Speaker 1: In fact, the GOEO has scored the passage of the
Speaker 1: bill by Speaker Mike Johnson and that over the next
Speaker 1: ten years we need to come up with twenty trillion
Speaker 1: dollars of money just to pay the accumulated national debt
Speaker 1: over those ten years, which is an additional twenty trillion
Speaker 1: dollars on top of the thirty seven trillion my simple
Speaker 1: Deer Park High School Matt tells me, that's fifty seven
Speaker 1: trillion dollars in accumulated debt. How is this possible? In
Speaker 1: the year twenty oh one, the accumulated national debt was
Speaker 1: four trillion. Now it's thirty seven trillion, what eight and
Speaker 1: a half times, and it's accelerating. It's not there's no cuts,
Speaker 1: real cuts to any federal spending program. So how do
Speaker 1: we get out of it? Number one by telling the truth?
Speaker 1: Number two by saying we have to live within our means.
Speaker 1: Very simple. We have a guest coming up later to
Speaker 1: address himself to this. And I understand that the Trumpster
Speaker 1: and the Republicans are not happy with Warren Davidson of
Speaker 1: Ohio and Thomas Massey of Kentucky. But there were two
Speaker 1: persons that stood up and said, we're not cutting federal spending.
Speaker 1: At the bottom line, we're spending more money and we're
Speaker 1: still going to borrow two trillion dollars over every year
Speaker 1: as far as the eye can see. According to CBO,
Speaker 1: the deficits average two point two trillion over ten years.
Speaker 1: That's twenty two trillion, But if you have dynamic scoring,
Speaker 1: the number might be closer to twenty trillion. Borrowed in
Speaker 1: ten years, which is two and a half times the
Speaker 1: money we borrowed from seventeen seventy six to two thousand
Speaker 1: and one. Think of the world events that took place
Speaker 1: from the Revolutionary War through nine to eleven, and the
Speaker 1: spending is accelerating, it is not decelerating. We're passing on
Speaker 1: in five or ten years to our children a non
Speaker 1: sustainable course of action. Completely. No one is saying that
Speaker 1: we can continue to have these deficits and the deficits
Speaker 1: yearly and the accumulated debt without having a complete bankruptcy
Speaker 1: happening in this country. Let's continue and if line becomes available.
Speaker 1: We have two lines in use and we have Gale
Speaker 1: from Pennsylvania will be first. We have four lines open
Speaker 1: at eight six, six, six, four, seven, seven, three three seven.
Speaker 1: If you want to spend time on the sacrifice of
Speaker 1: the American soldier, Memorial Day weekend is for that purpose.
Speaker 1: Plant an American flag somewhere at the grave of a
Speaker 1: soldier that has died in battle or a veteran that
Speaker 1: gave all, came home and lived a great life and
Speaker 1: has met his reward, because we can never repay them sufficiently.
Speaker 1: And also later on, We're going to talk about the
Speaker 1: mental acuity of one Joe Biden, who was the president
Speaker 1: of the past four years. It wasn't Joe Biden, likely
Speaker 1: Hunter Biden, Anita Dunn, and maybe Donalin. And Hunter Biden
Speaker 1: controlled everything, and the media couldn't have cared less because
Speaker 1: they kept they think Donald Trump out of the White House.
Speaker 1: So let's continue eight six six six four seven, seven
Speaker 1: three three seven Bill cunning in the Great America with
Speaker 1: you every Sunday night by Bill cunning in the Great America.
Speaker 1: And you know what Jake Tapper and the NBC, ABC, CBS,
Speaker 1: the Washington Post headquartered in Washington has been wanting us
Speaker 1: to believe the last few weeks is that they were
Speaker 1: like a piano player in a house of ill repute,
Speaker 1: playing their music without knowing what's happening upstairs. It's a
Speaker 1: bunch of bs. And now that the truth is coming
Speaker 1: out because of these books by Jake Tapper and others
Speaker 1: saying no, wait a minute, we didn't have a president
Speaker 1: for four years and he was mentally corrupt. He was
Speaker 1: also financially used by Hunter Biden to benefit the Biden
Speaker 1: family the tune of millions of dollars where's the investigation
Speaker 1: for that wire fraud, bribery, etc. I'm waiting for those
Speaker 1: indictments to come out of somebody. Because the Biden family
Speaker 1: the crime syd to get made millions of dollars, according
Speaker 1: to Congressman Comer of Kentucky, and they used their influence,
Speaker 1: shall I say, Hunter Biden and the Biden family used
Speaker 1: their influence to make millions of dollars in others suffering
Speaker 1: financial calamities because the gravy train is over and so
Speaker 1: I can't imagine how Jake Tapper and the main anchors
Speaker 1: of the main networks keep any credibility when they had
Speaker 1: dropped in their lap the obvious story that we didn't
Speaker 1: have a president for four years that was mentally alert.
Speaker 1: He put a lid on activities about four o'clock in
Speaker 1: the afternoon, spent half of his time on a beach
Speaker 1: somewhere stumbling, mumbling and fumbling in Delaware, and the media
Speaker 1: watched it all going on without inquiring about the president's
Speaker 1: mental status. And now some want to benefit through their
Speaker 1: own mistakes, errors and cover up. Jake Tapper, CNN, the
Speaker 1: Clinton News Network participated in the cover up of the
Speaker 1: president's mental instability and then failed to report in real
Speaker 1: time what was occurring because he had to wait to
Speaker 1: make millions of dollars writing a book. I don't know
Speaker 1: how CNN keeps them. I don't know how CNN keeps
Speaker 1: any of the anchors. The main anchor of CBS is gone.
Speaker 1: Leicester Hold is stepping down, thank god. David Muer's only
Speaker 1: when left and us like watching left wing propaganda half
Speaker 1: the time? Where were they for the four years that
Speaker 1: Joe Biden was not the president? And that's some coterie
Speaker 1: or a pilot bureau of leftists were in charge doing
Speaker 1: whatever they wanted to do to the chagrin of this nation.
Speaker 1: I heard the argument, Well, give me an example how
Speaker 1: Joe Biden didn't do his job. Well, how about on
Speaker 1: the southern border with ten to twelve million illegals coming
Speaker 1: across it. How about the decision someone made in Kabo,
Speaker 1: Afghanistan resulting in the murder of thirteen service personnel. How
Speaker 1: about the responses to the invasion of Ukraine, or what
Speaker 1: happened in what happened in Gaza with Hamas October the
Speaker 1: seventh of a year and a half ago. How about
Speaker 1: all that? How about the fact that he added eight
Speaker 1: trillion dollars to the national debt and only four years.
Speaker 1: How about the fact that ninety three billion dollars was
Speaker 1: funneled out of the EPA to liftist groups to be
Speaker 1: kicked back to the Democratic Party. Should I go on
Speaker 1: with the number of lies and hoaxes perpetuated by the
Speaker 1: mainstream media who now seek to financially benefit from not
Speaker 1: doing their job. I hope not. Let's continue take your
Speaker 1: calls next. We have calls from Wisconsin, in Pennsylvania and
Speaker 1: Fort Wayne, Indiana and Cincinnati have a couple of lines
Speaker 1: open at eight six six six four seven seven three
Speaker 1: three seven. I particularly like to work holiday weekends, especially
Speaker 1: this one, because I love complimenting the American soldier, sailor,
Speaker 1: and marine and the sacrifices so many have made. Some
Speaker 1: gave the ultimate sacrifice, some gave all, and all gave some.
Speaker 1: And for those veterans who are listening, thank you for
Speaker 1: your sacrifices. Let's continue with more. Phil Cunningham, The Great
Speaker 1: American with you every Sunday by Billy Cunningham, The Great
Speaker 1: American and one of my favorite movies was put together
Speaker 1: about twenty three years ago, of course, by Mel Gibson
Speaker 1: starring him and Sam Elliott. I loved him. I loved
Speaker 1: Sam Elliott, especially in some of the some of the
Speaker 1: recent films that he's had. I think Sam Elliott is
Speaker 1: wonderful and especially when he deals with Western characters. And
Speaker 1: great Kanear was there and tell us the story of
Speaker 1: one of the first battles of the Vietnam War when
Speaker 1: Mel Gibson and Sam Elliott led a group of Green
Speaker 1: recruits into the Valley of Death, which was the first
Speaker 1: one of the first major conflicts between the American soldiers
Speaker 1: in North Vietnam depicted in this movie. And this is
Speaker 1: about a two minute segment I want to share with
Speaker 1: you now to talk about Melt Gibson, what he said
Speaker 1: as they were getting ready for battle and Danny Boy
Speaker 1: Gleason hit it.
Speaker 4: In the seventh Cavalry.
Speaker 1: We got a captain from the.
Speaker 4: Ukraine, another from Puerto Rico. We've got Japanese, Chinese, Blacks, Hispanics, Jerokee, Indians, Jews,
Speaker 4: and Gentiles, all Americans.
Speaker 1: In the States.
Speaker 4: Some men in this unit may experience discrimination.
Speaker 1: Because of race or creed, but for you and me.
Speaker 5: Now.
Speaker 6: All that is gone.
Speaker 4: We're moving into the Valley of the shadow of death,
Speaker 4: where you will watch the back of the man next
Speaker 4: to you as he will watch yours, and you won't
Speaker 4: care what color he is or by what name he calls. God.
Speaker 1: They say we're leaving home. We're going to what home
Speaker 1: was always supposed to be. So let us understand the situation.
Speaker 4: We are going into battle against a tough and determined enemy.
Speaker 4: I can't promise you and I will bring you all
Speaker 4: home alive.
Speaker 5: But this I swear.
Speaker 4: Before you and before Almighty God, that when we go
Speaker 4: into battle, I will be the first to set foot
Speaker 4: on the field, and I will be the last to
Speaker 4: step off, and I will leave no.
Speaker 1: One behind.
Speaker 5: Dead or alive.
Speaker 1: We will all come home together. So help me God, Now,
Speaker 1: fifteen thousand of my generation did not come home except
Speaker 1: in a body bag or in remembrances. And the sacrifices
Speaker 1: of the American soldier, despite the political machinations of LBJ
Speaker 1: and Richard Nixon, is for the history books. But owen
Speaker 1: can question the sacrifice of a great nation trying to
Speaker 1: free the people of Vietnam. And of course, the political
Speaker 1: leaders knew early on McNamara and Johnson, etc. That we
Speaker 1: weren't going to use the right military prescriptions to win
Speaker 1: the war. We wanted to compete in that war and
Speaker 1: not win, So there was bitterness felt by many of
Speaker 1: my generation about the purposes of that war. And now
Speaker 1: I guess we're in a sense friends with Vietnam. It's
Speaker 1: united under a communist leader who's trending toward capitalism, and
Speaker 1: it's a war that was eventually won by the regulars
Speaker 1: of the north of Vietnam took over Saigon. And it's
Speaker 1: the way it is, same thing almost in South Korea.
Speaker 1: We had to have victory there. And tonight's the night
Speaker 1: when something in the range and what for a six
Speaker 1: hundred thousand civil war veterans on both sides were killed.
Speaker 1: Four hundred thousand were killed in World War II, then
Speaker 1: the various other conflicts brings the sad number up to
Speaker 1: about war one point one to one point two million.
Speaker 1: It gave their life, and many come home they never
Speaker 1: really are free of those battles. I share with you
Speaker 1: on Father's Day coming up in about three weeks, the
Speaker 1: story of my father who fought in Guadalcanal and the
Speaker 1: Solomon Islands and in China, and that he was in
Speaker 1: for two and a half years and Uh, he was
Speaker 1: a grunt and he came back a different person. Of
Speaker 1: course I wasn't even born yet, but the stories I
Speaker 1: heard later about what he went through as an alcoholic
Speaker 1: trying to forget what he saw and what he did,
Speaker 1: is something that caused a little bit of guilt in
Speaker 1: me until the day I die. Because he left, couldn't
Speaker 1: handle it anymore. I called, you know, shell shocked, whatever
Speaker 1: you want to say. It's now PTSD, but at that
Speaker 1: point it wasn't recognized as such. I guess he was
Speaker 1: one of the lucky ones that came home. And uh,
Speaker 1: after World War Two, about four hundred thousand didn't come home,
Speaker 1: and their and their graves mark the land and about
Speaker 1: seventy five different nations. So we try to spread packs
Speaker 1: from out Mayrkana to the world, sometimes with success and
Speaker 1: sometimes not. Let's take some telephone calls and if the
Speaker 1: line becomes available eight six six six four seven seven
Speaker 1: three three seven, let's go to a Mark in Wisconsin
Speaker 1: and many others including Gale in Pennsylvania and Mark and Wisconsin.
Speaker 1: Welcome to the Bill Cunningham, Shaw and Mark. How are you.
Speaker 7: I'm doing fine, How are you tonight?
Speaker 1: Doing well? Thank you?
Speaker 7: Well, happy Memorial Eve.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's kind of tough to say have a great
Speaker 1: Memorial Day or happy Memorial Day. It's kind of remembering
Speaker 1: one point one to one point two million men and
Speaker 1: women that gave their life. It's a remembrance more than happy.
Speaker 1: But I understand what you're saying.
Speaker 7: Yeah, I should rephrase it, and I totally agree with
Speaker 7: you on ed. My point is is, I'm going to
Speaker 7: go along with this long story short. I think Tamper
Speaker 7: and Karine Jean Pierre should share an award for, you know,
Speaker 7: co championship for gas lighting. Tamper is going to write
Speaker 7: this book, and you know, I've heard enough interviews where
Speaker 7: he's just totally contradictory. Uh guess, you know, just gas
Speaker 7: lighting the heck out of all the interviews that I've heard,
Speaker 7: and I just kind of wonder, is, uh, you know,
Speaker 7: whether Pierre is going to come up with a book too,
Speaker 7: I mean, why not if he can pull off Posi
Speaker 7: Shenan against I don't know why she would make the
Speaker 7: same kind of attempt.
Speaker 1: Allegedly allegedly that both of them the authors. I don't
Speaker 1: blame his co author, but Jake Tapper is paid to
Speaker 1: report the news when he learns of it, and he
Speaker 1: said repeatedly, I've known about this for months and I
Speaker 1: didn't report it until until after he left office in
Speaker 1: order to keep Donald Trump out of office in order
Speaker 1: to maybe make him lose, which caused the opposite effect. Normally,
Speaker 1: you intend one thing to do another. If you kind
Speaker 1: of run CNN, how do you keep Jake Tapper employed?
Speaker 7: You don't? I mean that interview with Kelly.
Speaker 5: Was just awful.
Speaker 1: Mean, Kelly did a great job.
Speaker 7: She did, she did absolutely, but I mean if that
Speaker 7: didn't rad him out, I.
Speaker 5: Don't know what would.
Speaker 7: And how he can keep a straight face after that,
Speaker 7: and had the audacity to write a book to insult
Speaker 7: the American intelligence is just beyond my comprehension. I mean,
Speaker 7: that is just pathetic. That's why I say, I wonder
Speaker 7: if you know as bad as I mean, Fortunately we
Speaker 7: have Caroline Lovett. At least you have somebody in the
Speaker 7: White House Press secret there to give you honesty versus
Speaker 7: all that baloney that he had to listen to for
Speaker 7: four sick name years of listening to Karine John Pierre.
Speaker 7: I mean, she was brutal, absolutely brutal.
Speaker 1: Well Mark. One other factor is that the twenty fifth
Speaker 1: Amendment is created for exactly Joe Biden's situation. And I
Speaker 1: watched Saturday morning the interview of Alex Thompson, the co
Speaker 1: author with Jake Tapper of the book and the co
Speaker 1: author of the book Original Sin said with nine AM
Speaker 1: on Saturday morning, he said that the cabinet members he
Speaker 1: spoke with knew that Joe Biden would not be capable
Speaker 1: of taking a two am telephone call in which there
Speaker 1: was in a military crisis that demanded the president to act,
Speaker 1: and that the reason the twenty fifth Amendment exists is
Speaker 1: to have the vice president, along with half the cabinet,
Speaker 1: to temporarily take away the powers of the president case
Speaker 1: the president is disabled in some sense and can't perform
Speaker 1: the duties. Now, so you have Kamala Harris taking an
Speaker 1: oath of office to support and defend the constitution that
Speaker 1: she trashed, and most of the cabinet members knew that
Speaker 1: Joe Biden could not discharge the duty, but none of
Speaker 1: them had the guts to step forward and do their duty.
Speaker 1: And Alex Thompson yesterday morning on CNN, it was unbelievable
Speaker 1: to watch him relate in the book that the cabinet
Speaker 1: knew they had a mentally incompetent commander in chief that
Speaker 1: put American soldiers in their grave at Kamala, Afghanistan, and
Speaker 1: they didn't have the coyonies or the judgment to step
Speaker 1: forward and do their constitutional duty. What do you think
Speaker 1: about that one?
Speaker 7: Well, you know you already kind of touched on this,
Speaker 7: But Joe couldn't even take a phone call at two
Speaker 7: pm because you'd be on the beach in Delaware totally
Speaker 7: unaware of anything that was going on, you know there.
Speaker 7: I mean, well, you know everybody knows that you know,
Speaker 7: he has any il say, just half a brain. This
Speaker 7: guy was nothing more than a prop for four years.
Speaker 7: I mean, in my opinion, I think things were being
Speaker 7: run by you.
Speaker 1: Know who who was running?
Speaker 7: I think I think it was Obama's third term.
Speaker 1: Nettwire was his people proliferated throughout the executive branch of government,
Speaker 1: and they were calling Barack Hussein Obama regularly to say
Speaker 1: what to do, how to do it, who to appoint?
Speaker 1: And And you know, Mark, isn't that a big story
Speaker 1: if we have a dysfunctional president and the presidency was
Speaker 1: taken over by this coterie, this pollit Bureau of Individuals
Speaker 1: and the media knew what was going on and failed
Speaker 1: to report it. Isn't that a big problem?
Speaker 5: Well?
Speaker 7: Yeah, I mean, you know, again we're back to that
Speaker 7: gifts lighting propaganda press thing. I mean, I think, you know,
Speaker 7: aside from any particular governmental branch, I think the propaganda
Speaker 7: press supersedes everything. Because we're kind of getting back to
Speaker 7: what my original point is. The gas lighting is that
Speaker 7: severe that you know, how much duping is going on
Speaker 7: across the nation over the airwaves, To me, is is insurmountable.
Speaker 7: I mean, you know, bottom line is is how many
Speaker 7: people buy into what they hear if they don't have
Speaker 7: enough discretion and discernment to figure out the difference between
Speaker 7: truth and line.
Speaker 1: It used to be you could kind of rely upon
Speaker 1: the so called mainstream media every now and then to
Speaker 1: get it right. But they've lied so often about so
Speaker 1: many important things. I trust nothing of what they tell
Speaker 1: me because they have a long history of track record
Speaker 1: of lying or not telling the truth about important matters
Speaker 1: that really, really, really are important. Do we have a
Speaker 1: president that is functional? And when Michael for Connish asked
Speaker 1: Alex Thompson about the two am telephone call that oh,
Speaker 1: my god, you got to make it. You hear the
Speaker 1: commander in chief and the cabinet officials said we wouldn't
Speaker 1: even wake him up because he's dysfunctional. Isn't it then
Speaker 1: their job to step forward?
Speaker 7: Well, you know it's worse than that. And again again
Speaker 7: this is more of my opinion. But now, if our
Speaker 7: current commander in chief, obviously is Donald Trump, when he
Speaker 7: has to make a critical decision as commander in chief,
Speaker 7: he could very well be overruled by one of these
Speaker 7: rogue judges.
Speaker 5: That's probably some idiot district.
Speaker 7: Judge by the way, that we'll try to undermine him
Speaker 7: while our country is it is in jeopardy of some
Speaker 7: major overthrow.
Speaker 1: And right now we have district court judges appointed by
Speaker 1: the far left wing of the Joe who appointed these
Speaker 1: district court judges, it was not Joe Biden. It was
Speaker 1: Anita Dunn or it was Ron Klain, the far left
Speaker 1: wing activist who wanted to take over the foreign policy
Speaker 1: of this country, and they're being allowed to do it
Speaker 1: by a passive, complacent US Supreme Court who I thought
Speaker 1: were conservatives.
Speaker 7: Well yeah, I mean, you know now that you mentioned
Speaker 7: and where's Amy Komi Bart in this whole scheme of things.
Speaker 1: Here and find it. What a search warrant? Yeah, and
Speaker 1: I'm thinking, okay, who's running this show? I mean, it
Speaker 1: is disgusting to hear Alex Thompson on the book with
Speaker 1: Jake Tapper the original sin to say that the cabinet
Speaker 1: officials and the vice president lied to us for years
Speaker 1: about the mental cognitive functioning of Joe Biden, and they
Speaker 1: had the duty to step forward for the country to
Speaker 1: say that the twenty fifth amendmentis hereby imposed, and sadly,
Speaker 1: Kamala Harris is the acting president until there's a hearing
Speaker 1: held to determine what to do. And they put the
Speaker 1: nation's survivability at risk by failing to do so. And
Speaker 1: now the media, having known that, wants is to continue
Speaker 1: to pay attention to what they have to say, and
Speaker 1: I don't anymore. Let's continue. By the way, it's somewhat surprising,
Speaker 1: but the New York Knicks have beaten the Indiana Pacers
Speaker 1: one six to one hundred. How about that. I don't
Speaker 1: think that was possible. The Knicks are back at it.
Speaker 1: Let's continue with more forty nine minutes after the hour
Speaker 1: and a couple of lines available at eight six, six, six, four, seven,
Speaker 1: seven three three seven, Bill Cunning and the Great American
Speaker 1: with you every Sunday Night. A couple of news items
Speaker 1: a couple hours ago. Duck Dynasty star and Robertson family
Speaker 1: patriarch Phil Robertson died a few hours ago at the
Speaker 1: age of seventy nine. His son announced via Twitter X
Speaker 1: he said, my dad has gone to be with the
Speaker 1: Lord today. He will be missed, but we know he's
Speaker 1: in good hands and our family is good. Because God
Speaker 1: is good. We will see him again as from his family,
Speaker 1: from his son and the Robertson made his name inventing
Speaker 1: a innovative duck call for hunters to use in the
Speaker 1: nineteen seventies, leading the success of the company Duck Commander.
Speaker 1: His family then became famous for their portrayal in the
Speaker 1: reality show Duck Dynasty that ad that aired in the
Speaker 1: night and about ten or fifteen years ago. I also
Speaker 1: would note that an American has been charged with an
Speaker 1: attempt to fire bomb the American Embassy in Tel Aviv.
Speaker 1: Well yours truly a year and a half ago spent
Speaker 1: some time a dual US German citizen allegedly intended to
Speaker 1: firebomb the US embassy in Tel Aviv, Israel, faces many
Speaker 1: years behind bars, and Joseph Neumayer born in Colorado, approached
Speaker 1: the embassy in May nineteenth one carrying a dark colored
Speaker 1: backpack and spit on an embassy guard and tempted to
Speaker 1: use Molotov cocktails to blow up that embassy. It was
Speaker 1: tracked to a nearby hotel. They arrested him after identified
Speaker 1: himself and the backpack was Molotov cocktails. And of course
Speaker 1: he was yelling free Palestine, Free Palestine, which the Prime
Speaker 1: Minister of Israel is similar to Hyle Hitler. And of
Speaker 1: course history has taught us that unless we understand what's
Speaker 1: happened in the past, it will be repeated in the future.
Speaker 1: The Nazi regime hooked up with Islamic extremists to kill
Speaker 1: Jews in the nineteen thirties and forties. They were compatriots
Speaker 1: during World War Two. Here we are about eighty ninety
Speaker 1: years later, and we're still fighting it. The Gulf states
Speaker 1: that have succeeded militarily shall we and diplomatically and economically
Speaker 1: have made peace through the Abraham Accords with Israel. But
Speaker 1: the states that are failures, such as Iran, needs a
Speaker 1: scapegoat for the failure of their domestic policies. And so
Speaker 1: the death cult of Hamas and Hesbala and Boca Haram
Speaker 1: and the Talibam, etc. Is best exhibited than Iran, which
Speaker 1: has failed every which way it can fail as the government,
Speaker 1: but they need to escapegoat, and of course it's the Jews.
Speaker 1: So according everything I've read, the attack on the Iranian
Speaker 1: nuclear facilities are going to happen in the next week
Speaker 1: or two, and it has to take place. We're gonna
Speaker 1: have a guest coming up later to talk about it here, Solomon,
Speaker 1: But until then, your calls, but you can't get on
Speaker 1: the outskirts of Berlin and let the Nazis stay in
Speaker 1: charge of Berlin. And at this point Iran is ready
Speaker 1: to fall, and they think they're going to be in
Speaker 1: heaven with us seventy two virgins. And if I was
Speaker 1: the Israeli, he's how to arrange the meeting. Let's continue
Speaker 1: with more. Bill Cunningham with you every.
Speaker 5: Sunday night, Willie.
Speaker 1: Thank you.
Speaker 2: By Choice Hotels, Econo Lodge and Roadway In Hotels are
Speaker 2: serving up double points for every qualifying stay book at
Speaker 2: Choice hotels dot com. Now here's the man who's been
Speaker 2: recognized as radio's best, the recipient of not one but
Speaker 2: two prestigious Marconi Awards for his broadcast excellence. The one
Speaker 2: and only Bill cunninghad you.
Speaker 1: Know one of the many lies told by the media
Speaker 1: is that Joe Biden as sharp as attack. You might
Speaker 1: recall the kJ and Kamala Harris on the night of
Speaker 1: the June twenty seventh debate when Biden showed himself and
Speaker 1: his true colors said he had a bad night, had
Speaker 1: a cold. But that's not that Joe Biden, I know.
Speaker 1: And they spent the next several days lying to us.
Speaker 1: And when were they lying? What they tell them the truth?
Speaker 1: When does CNN tell the truth? And when do they lie?
Speaker 1: In fact, does anyone apologize for the lies? Says Jake
Speaker 1: Tapper of CNN, apologize for the lies and the misconceptions
Speaker 1: his reporting has created? To does he only tell the
Speaker 1: truth when he gets paid by someone other than his employer?
Speaker 1: I could imagine a newsman working in some news operation
Speaker 1: would lie and only tell the truth when an outside
Speaker 1: source gives him money. Where's the apology to Lord Trump
Speaker 1: or to those who question the president's mental acuity? Now
Speaker 1: we find out from the book that the cabinet officials
Speaker 1: knew that Joe Biden was not mentally equipped to be
Speaker 1: the president at the amendment says you have to come
Speaker 1: forward and say it. It's your constitutional duty, along with
Speaker 1: the vice president, who literally has no testicles, to come
Speaker 1: forward and say, you know what, we have to impose
Speaker 1: the twenty fifth Amendment, even though even though it would
Speaker 1: have meant that Harris would have been the president the
Speaker 1: acting president, it was their duty to do so.
Speaker 5: So.
Speaker 1: When does the media apologize for the very fine people
Speaker 1: hoax in Charlottesville or the Springfield, Ohio bomb threat hoax
Speaker 1: or the Trump called out for Liz Channing to be
Speaker 1: executed hoax? Or the violent crime under Biden Harris is
Speaker 1: down hoax or the Arlington Cemetery hoax, or the Russian
Speaker 1: collusion hoax or the hands Up, Don't Shoot hoax or
Speaker 1: the Jesse Smilette hoax or the Covington, Kentucky KKK kids hoax.
Speaker 1: When do they apologize for the Trump trashes the troops hoax,
Speaker 1: policemen killed at mostly peaceful January sixth protest hoax? When
Speaker 1: does any of this take place? Does any one of
Speaker 1: the meetings you know we got that wrong. I'm sorry
Speaker 1: about the Russian collusion delusion. I'm sorry about the laptop disinformation.
Speaker 1: I'm sorry about the fifty one intelligent authorities telling us
Speaker 1: this was Russian information, the Hunter laptop, the thousands of
Speaker 1: files that were classified and thrown on the carpet by
Speaker 1: the FBI, the mar Lago hoax. Did they ever apologize. No,
Speaker 1: I'm waiting for the first apology for the mainstream media
Speaker 1: about any of the lies they repeatedly told about Donald
Speaker 1: Trump and Republicans. It simply doesn't happen. In fact, would
Speaker 1: Jake Tapper have written this book with Alex Thompson, who,
Speaker 1: by the way, everyone tells me he's a great reporter.
Speaker 1: If Harris had won the presidency, this book would never
Speaker 1: have been written. Why a CNN of the mainstream media
Speaker 1: always wanted to curry favor with the Democratic Party. Now
Speaker 1: that they're out of power, they feel they can maybe
Speaker 1: at this time have a moment of lucidity and tell
Speaker 1: the truth. Incredible, He kind of married himself to this
Speaker 1: book project. He's going to make millions of dollars after
Speaker 1: deceiving you and me, and Jake Tapper doesn't appear to
Speaker 1: be upset at all. He simply moves on to the
Speaker 1: next hoax and the next lie, which is there's cuts
Speaker 1: to medicaid, said this morning on the Sunday morning talk shows.
Speaker 1: I'm watching some of them. And if you're an occasional
Speaker 1: viewer or listener and you hear constantly there's cuts to
Speaker 1: medicare medicaid, you might start believing it when the media
Speaker 1: knows that's also a lie, and they keep saying it
Speaker 1: hopefully at some point it might come true. Do they
Speaker 1: ever learn from their lives? Did the media ever say,
Speaker 1: you know what? We lied repeatedly? For example, the NPR
Speaker 1: CEO said, quote PBS is fair and objective, has no
Speaker 1: political motive, and that Judge Brett Kevin all justice. How
Speaker 1: about that hoax about those women with the rape rooms.
Speaker 1: Did anyone in the media apologize for any of that?
Speaker 1: Absolutely not. They simply move on to the next hope
Speaker 1: hoax and hope that you believe, you know, and we
Speaker 1: go on and on. But there's no cuts to Medicare Medicaid.
Speaker 1: There's this slowing of the increase and in some cases
Speaker 1: an increase. So how is that a cut? The media
Speaker 1: lies repeatedly. They can't keep the lies straight and Jake
Speaker 1: Tapper's at the top of the list. Let's continue now,
Speaker 1: let's go to Gail in Pennsylvania, and then a call
Speaker 1: from Indiana, the home of the five hundred, and then
Speaker 1: Cincinnati itself and many others. Eight sixty six six four seven,
Speaker 1: seven three three seven and Gale and Pennsylvania. Thank you
Speaker 1: for your call, Gail.
Speaker 8: Please go ahead, Hi, Bill, Yes, you know, talking about
Speaker 8: that big, beautiful bill. I really hope that it gets
Speaker 8: approved almost intact, unless they make a few more spending cuts.
Speaker 8: And the reason I do is because the tax cuts
Speaker 8: are very, very important, and that will add about three
Speaker 8: and a quarter percent growth to our economy, which is
Speaker 8: the only way we can get out of the mess
Speaker 8: that we're in with these astronomical deficits. It's not going
Speaker 8: to be through spending cuts only, because we need this growth.
Speaker 8: And I don't know that some of these people talking
Speaker 8: about it really are taking that into account. That everything
Speaker 8: President Trump is doing bringing back investment here, these tax cuts,
Speaker 8: you know, that's going to really fuel the economy. And
Speaker 8: I personally am very excited about it. I know it's
Speaker 8: not a perfect bill, and there are some complaints, like
Speaker 8: people are saying, well, what about the tax cuts for
Speaker 8: Social Security? Well, they failed to realize this is a
Speaker 8: reconciliation bill and it's a structural change to eliminate taxes
Speaker 8: on Social Security. I think that President Trump will try
Speaker 8: to do that separately. Right now in the bill, I
Speaker 8: believe he's just giving a larger tax break to Social
Speaker 8: Security recipients.
Speaker 1: But what it is is a four thousand dollars in
Speaker 1: a sense of check. It's not a deduction, it's a credit.
Speaker 1: And so that means that the average person gets eighteen
Speaker 1: hundred dollars a month in Social Security benefits times twelve
Speaker 1: is about twenty one to twenty two thousand, and the
Speaker 1: tax paid on that it's about four thousand dollars. And
Speaker 1: so also it's means tested to an extent at least
Speaker 1: a bill in the House, who knows what's going to
Speaker 1: happen in the Senate. But nonetheless, if you make more
Speaker 1: than fifty thousand dollars a year off to the side,
Speaker 1: you don't get the four thousand dollars tax credit, which
Speaker 1: is you know, I will disclose I'm one of those individuals,
Speaker 1: and I don't want any more tax cuts for me.
Speaker 1: What I would like to see is growing this great
Speaker 1: economy of ours. And you don't grow an economy by
Speaker 1: more rules, more regulations, and more taxes. You grow the
Speaker 1: economy by targeting tax cuts on individuals who will use
Speaker 1: that money to grow the economy. That's how you grow
Speaker 1: the economy.
Speaker 8: Well, I believe in tax cuts for everybody across the board.
Speaker 8: You know, producers that are making a lot more money
Speaker 8: also deserve tax cuts, just to eliminate the loopholes. In fact,
Speaker 8: I believe really in a flat tax.
Speaker 1: Bingo, then go right there, Well, yeah, flat tax, get
Speaker 1: rid of the accountants, God bless them, get rid of
Speaker 1: the economists, get rid of the irs. Whether it's the
Speaker 1: number is allegedly on, a flat tax would be about
Speaker 1: twenty percent and then exempt the first fifty thousand dollars
Speaker 1: in income. And if that's the case, that's fine. The hassles,
Speaker 1: the imprisonments, the hiding of this, the repositioning. Is it
Speaker 1: a capital gains? Is that a summer year digits depreciation?
Speaker 1: It's a level debris idle. I don't know. But to
Speaker 1: have a flat tax or a national sales tax is
Speaker 1: the way to take power away from the politicians. And
Speaker 1: I'm one hundred percent of either one of those, which
Speaker 1: I think will never happen.
Speaker 8: But this economic growth is important because what is important
Speaker 8: is the debt as a percentage of the growth national product.
Speaker 8: So even though right now the debt is horrendous, if
Speaker 8: growth skyrockets as a percentage of that growth national product,
Speaker 8: that is going to be much less than it is now.
Speaker 8: So we need to have those tax cuts. We need
Speaker 8: to have this built.
Speaker 1: It's very critical, I think, you know, compared to what
Speaker 1: compared to doing nothing in which there's a huge tax increase.
Speaker 1: Right now, the GDP in America is about twenty eight
Speaker 1: trillion dollars and the accumulated debt is about thirty seven trillion,
Speaker 1: So we have to accept during World War Two we
Speaker 1: never had the GDP kind of a much greater than
Speaker 1: the accumulated national debt, and right now it is so
Speaker 1: if we can restrain spending and have more economic activity.
Speaker 1: Right now we generate about five trillion dollars in income
Speaker 1: taxes and the deficit is about two trillion. So somehow
Speaker 1: we have to grow the economy above thirty to thirty
Speaker 1: two trillion a year, which is possible. Then we have
Speaker 1: to restrain federal spending, and life's going to be Okay, Now,
Speaker 1: I hope that's the case. Do you have hope that's
Speaker 1: going to happen.
Speaker 8: It will happen. And as you said, regulations are maybe
Speaker 8: even believe it or not, more important. And I've talked
Speaker 8: to you before about this that the media who brainwashes people,
Speaker 8: the legacy media so highly, they want more regulations this ABC, NBCMSNBC, CNN.
Speaker 8: Why do these CEO billionaires probably could call the Marxist
Speaker 8: Why do they want more regulation? Because they want to
Speaker 8: put out their small business competition, So they're going to
Speaker 8: promote democrats, their Democrat cronies.
Speaker 1: Have you ever heard David Muir or Lester Holt or
Speaker 1: sixty Minutes or the New York Times or the Washington
Speaker 1: Posts say, you know what, we got this wrong. The
Speaker 1: COVID lab leak came out of a laboratory, didn't come
Speaker 1: from a bat. Have you heard him say, you know,
Speaker 1: the Hunter laptop on Russian disinformation was a hoax. We're
Speaker 1: sorry we reported that the mass graves of Native children
Speaker 1: in Canada was a hoax. You know, I'm sorry about that.
Speaker 1: When the mainstream media reported on border agents whipping illegals,
Speaker 1: I kind of wait for Lester Holt to say, you
Speaker 1: know what, we got that wrong. I'm sorry about that.
Speaker 1: Would you drop dead figuratively if somehow the mainstream media
Speaker 1: went over a list of the lies told to you
Speaker 1: and they apologize for misreporting the facts. Wouldn't that be
Speaker 1: a shocking moment?
Speaker 4: Oh?
Speaker 1: Yeah, I wouldn't know what to do. I would say,
Speaker 1: David mure to say, you know what, the CEO of
Speaker 1: NPR said, quote the NPR is fair and objective and
Speaker 1: has no political motive quote unquote. Now no one can
Speaker 1: watch PBS and come away with the idea. You know what,
Speaker 1: that organization should get five hundred million dollars in our
Speaker 1: money every year because they're fair and objective, they have
Speaker 1: no political motive. NPR, national Public Radio, does a great job.
Speaker 1: And I'm thinking, how about reporting on that?
Speaker 4: You know?
Speaker 1: And I think about the violence on the left. It
Speaker 1: isn't just Brett Kavanaugh almost killed, assassinated because of the
Speaker 1: activities of Chuck Shu where the judicial branch was attacked,
Speaker 1: Brett Kevanaugh, Steven Scalise, the legislative branch was shot, Donald
Speaker 1: Trump was shot, And all I hear about is all
Speaker 1: the violence committed by conservative Republicans. When the violence comes
Speaker 1: from the George Floyd riots, it comes to the radical
Speaker 1: leftists attacking every branch of government, and it continues on, abated,
Speaker 1: and the media doesn't report on that fact either, do they.
Speaker 8: Well, the Democrats had a candidate who not only enabled,
Speaker 8: but Kamala actually facilitated the violence. She announced that she
Speaker 8: was paying the bill of Black Lives Matter and Antifa
Speaker 8: as they burnt down cities. This is a Democrat party.
Speaker 1: It's amazing. And I'm waiting for the mainstream media to
Speaker 1: apologize for all the lies, distortions and the number of
Speaker 1: hoaxes they've reported over the years. But you just move
Speaker 1: on to the next lie, hoping you have short term
Speaker 1: memory loss. Well, Gail, we got to run. We agree,
Speaker 1: we have to grow this economy, have targeted tax cuts.
Speaker 1: The best thing would be a national sales tax or
Speaker 1: a flat tax, but the politicians will never let that happen.
Speaker 1: Let's continue with more twenty minutes after they are Bill
Speaker 1: Cunningham with you every Sunday night. I wouldn't note that
Speaker 1: the clock is ticking relative to Israel doing what must
Speaker 1: be done against Iran, and it's ay death cult in
Speaker 1: charge of that country who want to take the world
Speaker 1: with them and do a living hell. They want to
Speaker 1: kill Jews, and after Jews, it'll be Americans. It'll never
Speaker 1: stop radical Islam. I think the Golf States have figured
Speaker 1: it out. The Arab Golf States have figured it out,
Speaker 1: because they're succeeding magnificently, partially because of their economy fueled
Speaker 1: by oil, but mainly recently because of Donald Trump, and
Speaker 1: that there are one hundred percent in charge of taking
Speaker 1: Iran down. Give you an example of what they believe
Speaker 1: that when this thirty one year old shouted free Palestine,
Speaker 1: according to police, I've watched it and pulled out a
Speaker 1: red kafifa and traditional headdress worn by men from parts
Speaker 1: of the Middle East. That activity and murdering this two
Speaker 1: Israeli embassy employees or benefited were praised by parts of
Speaker 1: the Iran Revolutionary Guard as part of the jihad against
Speaker 1: the West and against America. Unbelievable. And Benjamin Ntchanaw, who
Speaker 1: gave an interview in which he talked about the terrorists
Speaker 1: who gunned down those two persons. One was the Jew,
Speaker 1: one was a Catholic. It's because that person simply wanted
Speaker 1: to kill Jews. He shouted free Palestine, Free Palestine, which
Speaker 1: is the same chant you hear in college campuses, correct,
Speaker 1: like at Harvard and Yale in Columbia. He had the
Speaker 1: same chant, and these are useful idiots of the radical left,
Speaker 1: and the same chant that was hearting. October the seven,
Speaker 1: twenty twenty three. On that day, thousands of terrorists did
Speaker 1: the incredible, unbelievable invasion of southern Israel to the Kibuus Is,
Speaker 1: mainly occupied by well meeting Israelis who wanted to live
Speaker 1: in peace with their Palestinian brothers and sisters and hired them.
Speaker 1: And those terrorists thousands stormed into southern Israel from Gaza.
Speaker 1: They beheaded men, they set them on fire, wrapped in
Speaker 1: oil soaked tires. They raped women and girls. They burned
Speaker 1: babies alive in front of their parents, and they butchered
Speaker 1: one two hundred innocent to men, women and children, took
Speaker 1: about two hundred and fifty hostages to the dungeons and
Speaker 1: dirt of Gaza, which is given to the Palestinians in
Speaker 1: twenty five, some twenty years ago by the Israelis to
Speaker 1: be their homeland. Go ahead, we're leaving. It's all up
Speaker 1: to you and they took the billions of humanitaris aid
Speaker 1: given to them in Palestine, so called Gaza's trip, and
Speaker 1: they built tunnels, they built bombs and rockets, and then
Speaker 1: Iran infiltrated parts of Hamas and Heswah with millions and
Speaker 1: millions of dollars so they could continue to attack Israel.
Speaker 1: And a brutal terrorist shot in cold blood a young
Speaker 1: beautiful couple in America, and that jihad has come all
Speaker 1: over the world, if you use Wikipedia as objective. Since
Speaker 1: nineteen seventy two, when the Israeli wrestlers were murdered in
Speaker 1: the Olympics, there's been a quarter of a million different
Speaker 1: attacks by Islamic extremists against mainly their own but also
Speaker 1: against the West, killing literally millions of people. It's happening
Speaker 1: right now as I speak in Africa, killing Christians, beheading Christians,
Speaker 1: Boca Haram and parts of Africa. It's happening regularly. And
Speaker 1: when will it stop. It will not stop until they
Speaker 1: are stopped. And the one force on earth that can
Speaker 1: do is the Israeli Defense Force, and God knows they
Speaker 1: have the means to do it. And at no point
Speaker 1: will Iran ever allow righteous inspections of their nuclear weapon
Speaker 1: facilities because in their interest they know to marry a
Speaker 1: nuclear bomb on top of one of their missiles and
Speaker 1: obliterate and murder the six million Jews in Israel, then
Speaker 1: come after us next. So stay tuned for more near
Speaker 1: Solomon's going to be with me a guest who spends
Speaker 1: his time in Israel. I think tonight he might be
Speaker 1: in Los Angeles a little bit earlier there to talk
Speaker 1: about his feelings about the Jihad coming to the streets
Speaker 1: of America and the fact that useful idiots on college
Speaker 1: campuses are shouting free Palestine, much as ninety years ago
Speaker 1: was Kyle Hitler to kill the Jews. Now it's a
Speaker 1: free Palestine which has been free, and they refuse used
Speaker 1: to build their own societies instead of using the money
Speaker 1: to build arms to kill Jews and Americans. Let's continue
Speaker 1: with more plus later on as the great Leland Vitter
Speaker 1: of news Nation, and once again I want to acknowledge
Speaker 1: the death of about one point one million Americans soldiers
Speaker 1: since seventeen seventy six through today in the sacrifices they've made.
Speaker 1: This Memorial Day weekend, Bill cunning into Great American with
Speaker 1: you every Sunday, by Billy cunning in the Great American
Speaker 1: Other terrible tragedy It took place a few nights ago
Speaker 1: in Washington, won an alleged not alleged when a murderer
Speaker 1: shouting free, free Palestine just murdered in cold blood to
Speaker 1: Israeli staffers. Which is a long history recently of anti Semitism,
Speaker 1: and I think the peatrit dish of the recent way
Speaker 1: by anti semitism off and are the college campuses, et cetera.
Speaker 1: And then anti Semitism has become an endemic in American society,
Speaker 1: and more bipartisan action must take place. And of course
Speaker 1: this is not in a vacuum. What happened with the
Speaker 1: AMAS attack on Israel in October about almost a year
Speaker 1: and a half ago, is again a terrible incident that
Speaker 1: reflects the values of AMAS and hesbla finded by Iran
Speaker 1: joining you nine now is near Solomon, who's normally headquartered
Speaker 1: in Syria, but finds himself now in Los Angeles and
Speaker 1: near Solomon. Welcome again to the Bill Cunningham show. Near Solomon.
Speaker 1: First of all, can you tell the American people the
Speaker 1: impact of this most recent slaughter of an innocent couple
Speaker 1: in Washington d C on the psyche of Jews living
Speaker 1: in America.
Speaker 3: Absolutely. First of all, Bill, thank you for having me
Speaker 3: on your show. And I just want to correct it.
Speaker 3: I'm usually stationed in Jerusalem, Okay, not in Syria. But
Speaker 3: the reality is is that it's just a way call
Speaker 3: that everything can turn in a moment. So the United
Speaker 3: States is a place that is free for all people,
Speaker 3: and then all of a sudden you see this unfortunate,
Speaker 3: you know, spinning of reality that people can just walk
Speaker 3: up to somebody and just shoot him because they disagree
Speaker 3: with their political views. As nobody knows even what the
Speaker 3: political views of these two innocent individuals were. So that's
Speaker 3: a scary reality. And me coming from the son of
Speaker 3: a Holocaust survivor who actually lived in Luxembourg, Luxembourg was
Speaker 3: a new forral country was very welcoming to the Jews.
Speaker 3: In one day also termed when the Nazis invented, when
Speaker 3: Nazis invaded Luxembourg, the Luxembourg government actually handed over the
Speaker 3: lists and location of the Jews living in their country.
Speaker 5: So that's a very scary reality.
Speaker 3: And we know that most Americans are obviously very peace
Speaker 3: loving allies of Israel and allies of that.
Speaker 5: That's good and.
Speaker 3: Proper, But nonetheless that reality is quite surprising that should
Speaker 3: happen just the middle of Washington, d See, the nation's capital.
Speaker 1: Is it you today? Do you walk around showing your
Speaker 1: Jewish faith? Would you wear in the emblems or indicators
Speaker 1: of your faith? Are you concerned for your own personal
Speaker 1: safety in America?
Speaker 3: The answer is I walk around with outwardly Jewish science
Speaker 3: because I'm not willing to allow the terrorists to win.
Speaker 3: But I cannot say that there is not concern amongst
Speaker 3: the Dowish community. In some places people are wary to
Speaker 3: be publicly identified as Jews, and that is extremely sad.
Speaker 1: How does thing? On October the seventh, twenty twenty three,
Speaker 1: yours truly spent about ten days in Tel Aviv and
Speaker 1: Jerusalem Masada. I spent time in Palestinian territories. In May
Speaker 1: of twenty twenty three. I discussed things with IDF officers,
Speaker 1: and there was a sense that we're on a road
Speaker 1: to peace. The Abraham Accords, of course, have been put
Speaker 1: on the back burner. There was hope Trump was going
Speaker 1: to get back in office, that things would proliferate again
Speaker 1: for those of us living in America. Similar to what
Speaker 1: happened on nine to eleven, what happened to the Jewish
Speaker 1: people in October seventh, twenty twenty three was something that
Speaker 1: in a sense was not predicted. It was a shock
Speaker 1: to the system, and it was perceived as a great
Speaker 1: victory by Hamas over innocent men, women and children who
Speaker 1: were butchered, raped, burned, alive, beheaded. Then the hostages went
Speaker 1: back and they've been there ever since October the seventh
Speaker 1: and eighth of twenty twenty three. What role do you
Speaker 1: think that vicious attack on Jews had an inciting in
Speaker 1: a sense support for Palestinian causes, which would be a
Speaker 1: one off. I can't imagine someone at Harvard or Yale
Speaker 1: or Ohio State or some other college campus Columbia saying
Speaker 1: that's a motivating factor for me to whip things up
Speaker 1: against Jews in America. Can you understand that philosophy?
Speaker 3: This scary reality is maybe all the ex sematism was
Speaker 3: completely dormant under the surface and just waiting to burst
Speaker 3: out there. That's the scary part, because when you have
Speaker 3: I don't want to say, you know, savage animals, but
Speaker 3: there's savage commas, you know, going out there and just
Speaker 3: brutally killing everything in sight, you know, raping, savaging children,
Speaker 3: you know, opening up pregnant women's stomachs. I mean, I
Speaker 3: mean it's horrific. So anybody to get behind that, even
Speaker 3: if you have, you know, a different political view. Nobody
Speaker 3: can condone such activities period. It doesn't make a difference
Speaker 3: what you're doing. And so maybe what was happening all
Speaker 3: this time on college campuses was this dormant insanity that
Speaker 3: just was released. It's like alligators being released inside of
Speaker 3: you know them all and the people said, oh great,
Speaker 3: let the alligators just you know, destroy everything around us.
Speaker 3: That's extremely scary. You know, you're in Los Angeles and
Speaker 3: I just spoke to a uber driver about diluting that
Speaker 3: was during COVID in New York City and he says, yeah,
Speaker 3: it also happened here in Los Angeles. I said, well, why,
Speaker 3: you know, where, where is this dormant craziness resigning? Is
Speaker 3: it really resigning in crazy smatic ideologies that are being
Speaker 3: stewed in liberal arts colleges around the country.
Speaker 5: I don't know.
Speaker 3: But seeing what happened in Colombia as a reaction to
Speaker 3: I don't even know how to define that activity, wherever
Speaker 3: that might be, whoever might be propagating such activity, you
Speaker 3: have to go against it with all fours and the
Speaker 3: wise educated. You know, universities came out supporting it, so
Speaker 3: it must have been their dormant all this time, just
Speaker 3: waiting to be leashed out. But we need to be
Speaker 3: concerned about to.
Speaker 1: Think about ripping from a mother's womb an unborn baby
Speaker 1: and splatter those remains on the ground. Animals don't do
Speaker 1: that to other animals. That is something that animals don't do.
Speaker 1: But Hamas did, hyped up on drugs and hate, and
Speaker 1: what happened to Governor Shapiro's home a month or two ago.
Speaker 1: I see in the ADO website that according to the
Speaker 1: adl Anti Defamation League, there's an average of twenty five
Speaker 1: anti Semitic incidents per day nationwide, with over ten thousand
Speaker 1: antismitic occurrences in the past year alone, including vandalism physical attacks.
Speaker 1: I read a story out of Boston the newspapers that
Speaker 1: Jewish students at Harvard, for example, will be surrounded by
Speaker 1: kadifa wearing I guess fellow students with masks keeping them
Speaker 1: from going to school. And I can imagine in the
Speaker 1: South in the nineteen forties, fifties and sixties. If the
Speaker 1: ku Klux planned would encircle black students and keep them
Speaker 1: from going to class, there would be a national US
Speaker 1: Army presence, as there was in college campuses in the
Speaker 1: South under Eisenhower and Kennedy, to make sure that the
Speaker 1: South and racist the Democrats in the South, can't do this.
Speaker 1: But there's a sense now that this is applauded. It's
Speaker 1: justified gunning down healthcare executives in this case, this Rodriguez
Speaker 1: murderer was a member of Black Lives Matter protest. He
Speaker 1: called himself anti war. He was a Palestinian activist thirty
Speaker 1: years old who traveled to do this from Chicago, and
Speaker 1: in Chicago is the most anti gun city in America.
Speaker 1: And he used something like twenty or twenty five shots.
Speaker 1: And as this poor woman was crawling with her life
Speaker 1: bleeding out, he stood over her and emptied out his
Speaker 1: revis empty out his weapon in her back. And this
Speaker 1: is a young woman, and he's yelling after that, free Palestine,
Speaker 1: Free Palestine. And there's going to be go fundme pages
Speaker 1: set up to give this guy more money for his defense.
Speaker 1: Can you give us some advice near Solomon, how we
Speaker 1: can stop this if we can.
Speaker 3: Well, first of all, we have to recognize the problem.
Speaker 3: You know, a lot of time as we try to
Speaker 3: not believe the problem exists. I just want to share
Speaker 3: with you my grandfather in the nineteen thirties came from
Speaker 3: Poland to Luxembourg and he told his family, who are
Speaker 3: all Luxembourgers, he said, you.
Speaker 5: Know, we need to leave Europe right now. And they
Speaker 5: said to.
Speaker 3: Them, you're crazy, You're absolutely insane. Nothing crazy can happen.
Speaker 3: And they told him you are a Polacan Jew. You
Speaker 3: sought for Gromes and Poland against the Jews, and that
Speaker 3: can't happen here. And we know what happened just a
Speaker 3: few years later. So first of all, we need to
Speaker 3: recognize the problem. There's no room in the United States
Speaker 3: or around the world for any sort of racism against
Speaker 3: any nation, against any poler against any freed And the
Speaker 3: society is judged not by the actions of individuals, but
Speaker 3: by the reaction of the public. How are you going
Speaker 3: to react to such an activity?
Speaker 5: And that's where everybody needs to stand up and say.
Speaker 3: Wait a second, we will not tolerate this, because if
Speaker 3: we do tolerate it. It might have just killed two
Speaker 3: innocent individuals, which is a power statement, but it's not
Speaker 3: going to come to us. But it will come to
Speaker 3: you if you don't recognize the problem and scream on
Speaker 3: the top of every rooftop that this is something that's
Speaker 3: not acceptable within our society.
Speaker 5: That's not being done.
Speaker 3: You have a few officials in the United States that
Speaker 3: screen up. You know, I'm here in Los Angeles. I
Speaker 3: don't see major statements going out and saying we will
Speaker 3: not tolerate racism, anti semitism in our mixed period. We
Speaker 3: have no tolerance. And when you talk about the piece
Speaker 3: that we are looking towards in the Arab community, I
Speaker 3: speak to a lot of my Arab crims and they say,
Speaker 3: you know why, for example, in the Emirates, why there
Speaker 3: is no crime is because on the one hand, we're time,
Speaker 3: but we're very tough on crime. It has to come
Speaker 3: together and that has not come together yet in this country.
Speaker 3: You need to recognize that this problem is rooted within
Speaker 3: certain cultures, because we see that in the universities, and
Speaker 3: when it actually is released and it's leashed down in
Speaker 3: the form of actual taking human lives, you need to
Speaker 3: come out with fury against its fury, not just condemnation,
Speaker 3: absolute fury. And that has not happened yet in this country.
Speaker 3: And if we were talking the thirties in Europe, nobody
Speaker 3: would have believed anybody saying what doomsday was going to
Speaker 3: look like. And I'm telling you here, you know, I'm
Speaker 3: not a prophet, but if we don't stand up dooms,
Speaker 3: they will come, and it will come sooner than we
Speaker 3: can ever imagine. So if you want to deal with it,
Speaker 3: you need to scream at no tolerance, zero absolute, zero
Speaker 3: tolerance and cent behavior.
Speaker 1: Sometimes more liberal Democratic members of the Congress like AOC
Speaker 1: are kind of asked about the slaughter of this darling
Speaker 1: couple at a conference at a Jewish cultural center in Washington,
Speaker 1: d C. That was reaching across the divide, that was
Speaker 1: about peace, that was bipartisan, and they came out and
Speaker 1: were slaughtered, and there's no comments in the AOC types
Speaker 1: first thing out of her mouth was what about the
Speaker 1: babies killed in Gaza? By the way, the babies killed
Speaker 1: or collateral damage of hamas, it's not idf And so
Speaker 1: I guess what I'm asking you, near Solomon, is would
Speaker 1: you like to have more of a full throate at
Speaker 1: response of the liberal elements of the Democratic Party that
Speaker 1: this is completely unacceptable.
Speaker 5: Absolutely.
Speaker 3: I think that people need to scream out that this
Speaker 3: behavior is just not acceptable. And just to put it,
Speaker 3: you know, when you talk about the differences in culture,
Speaker 3: last week there was a terrible savage murder in Israel
Speaker 3: of a woman who was on her way to give
Speaker 3: birth to her child. And what was amazing as opposing
Speaker 3: the Hamas savages that were killing babies, here Israel was
Speaker 3: able to extract the baby that was about to be
Speaker 3: born within sixty seconds of the moment that the woman
Speaker 3: arrived in the hospital. Unfortunately, they were not able to
Speaker 3: save her life, but they were able to save the
Speaker 3: life of the baby. And I believe we're still fighting
Speaker 3: for the life of that baby.
Speaker 5: We are fighting for life.
Speaker 3: Yet that's what my organization, a Straft represents, That's what
Speaker 3: the Israeli culture represents, That's what the American people represent,
Speaker 3: and the Democratic Party, just like the Republican Party, are
Speaker 3: no different. Emperishing and celebrating life. It's time for them
Speaker 3: to stand up and say we cherish life, we cherish
Speaker 3: that which is good, and we will not not only
Speaker 3: condemned we will not tolerate activity that is even dormant,
Speaker 3: that wants to call and kill people.
Speaker 5: We won't tolerate it. We will defund.
Speaker 3: Any organization that is willing to support such activity immediately.
Speaker 3: This is not free speech, This is savage, savage hatred
Speaker 3: Neir Solomon.
Speaker 1: Lastly, i'd ask this, how would you respond to a
Speaker 1: certain activists who claim that the israelis the IDF, which
Speaker 1: is a Western style democracy largely with many of the
Speaker 1: religious and other cultural and freedom of speech rights that
Speaker 1: we enjoy here, that some how the IDF and Israel's
Speaker 1: committing genocide and causing the death of hundreds of thousands
Speaker 1: of babies in Gaza. How would you respond to that
Speaker 1: charge of the left?
Speaker 3: Well, I mean, not only is an unfounded I want
Speaker 3: people listening up, listening to this. Understand. My son, who
Speaker 3: was a commander in the Glani Brigade, shares with me
Speaker 3: that when he is in the alleyways in Gosam, he says,
Speaker 3: I can't see. He says, I mean, I can't dispect
Speaker 3: to you what's going on? I said, what do you mean?
Speaker 3: He says, it looks like a party. He said, what
Speaker 3: do you mean? He says there's confetti falling from the sky.
Speaker 3: This confetti our notices to the people there. If you
Speaker 3: are innocent, leave this area. We have a safe corridor
Speaker 3: for you. We want to protect your lives, but we
Speaker 3: are going to bomb these buildings that are booby trapped. Okay,
Speaker 3: And then all of a sudden, there's huge megaphones coming
Speaker 3: from the sky from around warning people, giving them warning,
Speaker 3: please leave, please leave, and there is no movement. You
Speaker 3: have savage terrorists that celebrate deaths. They are happy when
Speaker 3: the civilian quote unquote civilian population remains. They capture them,
Speaker 3: We try to free them, we try to open up
Speaker 3: humanitarian corridors, and they do not allow that reality to exist.
Speaker 3: So if anybody wants to save even one life, and
Speaker 3: I believe we need to do everything we can't to
Speaker 3: save one life, they need to scream out to the
Speaker 3: savage terrorists, put down your arms, surrender yourselves.
Speaker 5: We will make sure.
Speaker 3: We Israel and the Western world who cares about life,
Speaker 3: that those that are innocent will be protected. But we
Speaker 3: will not risk our lives when savage terrorists are using
Speaker 3: these unfortunate people as human shields. We do everything we can.
Speaker 3: I do not believe America or any Western army would
Speaker 3: do what Israel's doing. We've heard American generals speak about
Speaker 3: that that's not activity that we will risk the lives
Speaker 3: of our children for. But Israel sometimes, unfortunately, it takes
Speaker 3: extreme measures, extreme steps to make sure that those on
Speaker 3: the other side that are innocent, You're not get it.
Speaker 3: So I'm so unfounded that I even hate even dealing
Speaker 3: with that issue because you just like you did yourself
Speaker 3: come to Israel.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I did see it for yourself.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's hard.
Speaker 5: It makes it very very simple.
Speaker 1: You're Solomon. All the Moss has to do is put
Speaker 1: down their arms, surrender, and their people are fed. But
Speaker 1: they don't want their people alive. They want their own
Speaker 1: Palestinians dead as part of the jihad. And that's a
Speaker 1: culture of death, like Iran is not a culture of life.
Speaker 1: When you're Solomon, you're.
Speaker 5: I can tell you they celebrate that.
Speaker 3: Right next to my house, I live on the Judaean Hills.
Speaker 3: They celebrate every death. They have celebrations. You've never seen
Speaker 3: a thing like this, and until you actually see it, you.
Speaker 5: Just can't believe.
Speaker 3: Nobody listening on this radio show right now, nobody can
Speaker 3: understand until you actually see it, they actually celebrate that
Speaker 3: very hard to understand.
Speaker 1: Well, the only way to handle this, near Solomon is
Speaker 1: to win. Got to win the war and win.
Speaker 3: And the West and in the United States, you have
Speaker 3: to just be belligerent about the fact that we will
Speaker 3: not tolerate any violences. We won't tolerate hatred towards other people.
Speaker 1: If there were Nazi uprisings on college campuses supporting Adolf Hitler,
Speaker 1: we would understand the analogy. Near Solomon. Once again, thanks
Speaker 1: for coming on the Bill Cunningham Show. And there we'll
Speaker 1: do it again. Thank you very much, Thank you ver.
Speaker 1: God bless American, God bless Israel. Alright, let's continue Bill Cunningham,
Speaker 1: the Great American live with you every Sunday night. Solomon
Speaker 1: knows where the bodies are buried, literally all over the
Speaker 1: Middle East from Israel. When a faction of the running
Speaker 1: government praises the DC shooter, who's a left doing activist
Speaker 1: whose name I refuse to mention, that killed those two
Speaker 1: diplomats employees of the Israeli embassy in Washington, d C.
Speaker 1: Calling them heroes of the jihad and encouraging more of it,
Speaker 1: and then you know exactly when Benjamin Netta, who would
Speaker 1: say in one speech that it used to be it
Speaker 1: was Yle Hitler, Now it's free Palestine. And the useful
Speaker 1: idiots on the left who incentivized the murder of innocent men,
Speaker 1: women and children in the October seventh grade in Israel,
Speaker 1: and applauds the murderer who shot down in cold blood
Speaker 1: a couple about to be engaged deserved to be in
Speaker 1: the bottom of hell, along with others who have similar viewpoints.
Speaker 1: Stay tuned for more. Coming up next is Scott Powell
Speaker 1: about a column he's written about debt. Also debt and
Speaker 1: how much trouble We're in Bill cunning Him the Great
Speaker 1: American with you Every Something by Billy Cunningham. Let's continue.
Speaker 1: Coming up there will be Scott Powell and also Leyland
Speaker 1: Vender of News Nation.
Speaker 5: Willie.
Speaker 2: Brough. You by Choice Hotels, Econo Lodge and Roadway in
Speaker 2: Hotels are serving up double points for every qualifying stay
Speaker 2: book at Choice Hotels dot com. Now here's the man
Speaker 2: who's been recognized as radio's best, the recipient of not one,
Speaker 2: but two prestigious Marconi Awards for his broadcast excellence, the
Speaker 2: one and only Bill Cunningham.
Speaker 1: By Billy Cunningham, the great American. Of course, Scott Powell
Speaker 1: has very interesting columns up. You can may check him
Speaker 1: off with Scott Powell, he's always on Discovery Institute. I
Speaker 1: have this one a couple of days ago from Newsmax
Speaker 1: with my friend Christopher Ruddy, and I looked at it
Speaker 1: and I thought, Okay, I had not given this a
Speaker 1: whole lot of thought, and I know it's a big problem.
Speaker 1: And that is that through the nineteen eighties, the United
Speaker 1: States of America was in fact the largest producer of
Speaker 1: rare earth's until the nineteen eighties, with well known companies
Speaker 1: manufacturing these so called rare earth magnets right here and
Speaker 1: terribly important. Maybe not in the medieval times, but today
Speaker 1: for jet fighters, for submarines, for missile technology, it's critical.
Speaker 1: And now we're producing none. Used to be the pebble
Speaker 1: mine in Alaska, or the Twin Metals and d Luth
Speaker 1: Complex mines in Minnesota, or the Twin Pines mines in Georgia.
Speaker 1: But the name of protecting the environment. Beginning with liberalism
Speaker 1: with Bill Clinton, through Joe Biden and his elitest supporters
Speaker 1: of the radical green agenda, they bottled up and eliminated
Speaker 1: America's creating these valuable resources is now about one are
Speaker 1: made in China. So we got hat in hand, going
Speaker 1: to Beijing begging them for technology to keep our technology,
Speaker 1: our military technology afloat. And once again, Scott Powell, welcome
Speaker 1: to the Bill Cunningham showing, first of all, give us
Speaker 1: an overview of America's military and why do you so
Speaker 1: called rare earth minerals are critical.
Speaker 6: Well, I'm I'm not a you know, you know, an engineer,
Speaker 6: a defense engineer, high tech engineer. But but rare earth
Speaker 6: have a you know, they have qualities that that kind
Speaker 6: of crossover. It's really what you know, there are rare
Speaker 6: earths that are used in the semiconductor industry, for instance,
Speaker 6: and they are about twenty rare earth minerals and metals
Speaker 6: that are used in the production of high tech aircraft
Speaker 6: like the F sixteen, the F twenty two, the F
Speaker 6: thirty five, and then of course drones are are really
Speaker 6: you know, that's a big part of the new you know,
Speaker 6: aircraft if you will, sector in the military because these
Speaker 6: are unmanned vehicles, they are cheaper to build and so forth.
Speaker 6: But I want people to understand we have to frame
Speaker 6: this to really understand that it's the primary role of
Speaker 6: government to protect the safety and security of the American people.
Speaker 6: There's no more important job than that. The government can
Speaker 6: screw up on a lot of things, but it best
Speaker 6: not screw up on protecting the people. But this, in
Speaker 6: fact was the case prior to Trump, because Washington had
Speaker 6: abdicated response me to to protect and develop these all
Speaker 6: important rare earth elements that are critically necessary for the
Speaker 6: production of high tech military weapon systems. And where will
Speaker 6: we where we source them from from China. So think
Speaker 6: about that for a minute. We're sourcing from China the
Speaker 6: essential component components for our defense industry to fight China
Speaker 6: right there are primary enemy right now. They are probably
Speaker 6: more more advanced in there thinking about how to take
Speaker 6: on the United States, how to take back Taiwan. And
Speaker 6: here we are relying on them to supply us these
Speaker 6: critical components so that you know, we can fly our
Speaker 6: aircraft to fight the Chinese. It's crazy, it's crazy that
Speaker 6: we allowed this to happen. So in the article I
Speaker 6: explain how it happened. It happened because of the growth
Speaker 6: of this bureaucratic state. The government agencies like the EPA
Speaker 6: and the Department of the Interior, and most of the
Speaker 6: government agencies have been had have been populated, if you will,
Speaker 6: they've been they've they've brought progressive minded people into these
Speaker 6: and all the federal agencies. And it stands to reason
Speaker 6: because these people, you know, they want to work for
Speaker 6: the government. They want to change society through government, whereas
Speaker 6: most people, you know, they want to go out and
Speaker 6: make money and have the freedom in the private sector.
Speaker 6: But so we have a we have government agencies now
Speaker 6: that are really at war with American.
Speaker 1: People now, which is why I think the Trumpster wants
Speaker 1: to do a deal with Ukraine. And this has taken
Speaker 1: us fifty years to get here. You have a great
Speaker 1: part of your column that says, over the past fifty years,
Speaker 1: the Congress failed to properly oversee reign in and direct
Speaker 1: the Department of the Interior and the EPA to support
Speaker 1: national security priorities and goals. And of course, for the
Speaker 1: last four years or so, who was running the presidency,
Speaker 1: nobody knows. We have a pilot bureau, including Hunter Biden,
Speaker 1: making this visions. And if the Biden family didn't financially
Speaker 1: benefit from overseas deals, they didn't make them, and so
Speaker 1: nobody was watching the store. We assumed for a long
Speaker 1: time because of Fair Traded Center, China was going to
Speaker 1: be our friend beginning in two thousand and one when
Speaker 1: they when they joined so called the trade organizations. It's
Speaker 1: not turned out that way at all, and now we
Speaker 1: don't have the capacity to produce these metals. I've looked
Speaker 1: at the forty or fifty Most of the names I
Speaker 1: can't pronounce, but I can't pronounce lithium and cobalt and
Speaker 1: radium and things like that. But there's a bunch of
Speaker 1: others and they all come from China, And I'm thinking, Okay,
Speaker 1: no one was paying attention now here we are about
Speaker 1: it's gonna take not a year or two years, Scott Powell,
Speaker 1: wouldn't it take ten years to be consistent to open
Speaker 1: up these minds in America and produce these these rare
Speaker 1: minerals right now, these global rare earth supply chain. It
Speaker 1: was we got into this thing long time. It's gonna
Speaker 1: take a long time to get out correct.
Speaker 6: Well. But I mean, if it became a national priority
Speaker 6: on a wartime footing, I think that we could get
Speaker 6: these mines up and running in two to three years.
Speaker 6: But we don't even know where all the where all
Speaker 6: the rare earth elements are because you know, mining on
Speaker 6: public land has been off limits, right and there's been
Speaker 6: no incentive for the private sector mining companies to pursue
Speaker 6: any of this, so they've just neglected it entirely. But
Speaker 6: I think we're a wealthy country in these minerals. And
Speaker 6: as a matter of fact, you know, China, you know,
Speaker 6: brings these minerals in from all over the world to
Speaker 6: process them in China. China is really the master at
Speaker 6: controlling supply chains. You know, they control the supply chain
Speaker 6: of lithium and lithium batteries. They control eighty percent of
Speaker 6: the cobalt produced in the world and it all comes
Speaker 6: out of the Congo in the Africa and Africa. How
Speaker 6: did they do this? They did it because they have
Speaker 6: a concerted foreign policy approach that they are going they
Speaker 6: are going to control the world. They're certainly going to
Speaker 6: defeat the United States because the United States stands in
Speaker 6: the way of most of these tyrants around the world.
Speaker 6: So they want to bring us to our knees and
Speaker 6: they control the supply chains. They can do that. Look,
Speaker 6: they eighty percent of the of the photo voltaic panels
Speaker 6: that we all see in acres and acres of defaced
Speaker 6: which used to be you know, pristine farmland is now
Speaker 6: covered with solar panels. And we've just learned that in
Speaker 6: these solar panels and some of these solar panels, there's
Speaker 6: a back door for China to basically turn it all off.
Speaker 6: I mean, it's unbelievable how naive we have been. We
Speaker 6: have you know, we have a determined enemy that wants
Speaker 6: to be able to defeat us without firing a shot.
Speaker 1: Well, you have also a column a few days ago
Speaker 1: about America's financial strength and its national security, and I
Speaker 1: read a piece by Senator Ron Johnson of Wisconsin, and
Speaker 1: he points out that our financial security is tied to
Speaker 1: getting down federal spending, which seemingly cannot happen. God knows
Speaker 1: that the Trumpster and House a leader in the House
Speaker 1: of Johnson and the Senate tune, if they can't do it,
Speaker 1: it can't be done. And I'm reading these numbers. Forget
Speaker 1: about the rhetoric Scott Powell, forget about the chainsaw, forget
Speaker 1: about DOGE, which I think is doing great work within
Speaker 1: their parameters. But Ron Johnson points out in this column
Speaker 1: that the and this this fiscal year that ends September thirtieth,
Speaker 1: the federal Treasury is going to collect about five trillion
Speaker 1: dollars from US as taxpayers. But that's gonna be about
Speaker 1: two trillion dollars short and even if and right now
Speaker 1: it's thirty seven trillion, and looking for the next ten years,
Speaker 1: you're going to add at least twelve to thirteen trillion.
Speaker 1: In the year twenty thirty seven, we're going to have
Speaker 1: fifty trillion dollars and national debt. And it's unbelievable.
Speaker 6: But here's the issue. Everybody has to understand this. Take
Speaker 6: the wisdom of war and Buffett, you know, he was
Speaker 6: the master investor and is key and he said, you
Speaker 6: know it's it shouldn't be a secret, but the power
Speaker 6: of compound interest is the chief driver of success in investing.
Speaker 6: And what that means is what he did was he
Speaker 6: bought high quality, dividend paying stocks, he held onto him
Speaker 6: he and reinvested all the dividends, so he never took
Speaker 6: the cash out. He reinvested in more shares, and then
Speaker 6: those more shares generate more dividends, and the dividends get
Speaker 6: increased every year, so it's like a virtuous engine of growth. Well,
Speaker 6: the opposite is that you have debt and disturvice the debt.
Speaker 6: You have to borrow more mon need to service the debt,
Speaker 6: and so you create more debt to service the existing debt,
Speaker 6: and so it goes worse and worse and worse until
Speaker 6: the system collapses, and it will collapse. It will there
Speaker 6: comes a point where you can't borrow any more money
Speaker 6: and you have to default on your debt. Then what
Speaker 6: happened then? Then what happened? Then? The financial markets are
Speaker 6: will we'll go through a total convulsion. And you know,
Speaker 6: if you own land and you own your house, and
Speaker 6: you own some gold and you own assets, hopefully you
Speaker 6: can survive through it all. But the currency will become
Speaker 6: worthless and then we'll have to have a reset. In
Speaker 6: other words, if there'll be massive defaults that will never
Speaker 6: be made of. It's sort of what's happened in Argentina
Speaker 6: at various times where they've done defaulted on their debt
Speaker 6: and they don't go out of business. They just say well, sorry,
Speaker 6: we can't pay you.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and that means but what does that mean when
Speaker 1: the default happens I'm not saying if it's gonna happen,
Speaker 1: when it happens. Give an example, in the year twenty twenty,
Speaker 1: which wasn't exactly decades ago. I'm talking five years ago,
Speaker 1: the federal government spent four point seven trillion dollars in
Speaker 1: the year twenty twenty. This year he had collected five
Speaker 1: point one trillion. If we go back to twenty twenty
Speaker 1: spending levels, we'd have a four billion dollar surplus to
Speaker 1: pay off the debt. Instead, all I hear from the
Speaker 1: mainstream media is there's cuts the medicare, there's cuts the Medicaid.
Speaker 1: Rich are getting a tax cut, the poor are going
Speaker 1: to go hungry. I hear all this crap, and the
Speaker 1: media doesn't tell us the truth, which is where we
Speaker 1: are financially. And you point that on your column, and
Speaker 1: I'm thinking, why can't we deal with reality?
Speaker 6: Well, you know, there are two things about human nature.
Speaker 6: One is the normalcy bias. And normally device is simple.
Speaker 6: It says that whatever was in the past, it gets
Speaker 6: projected on the present in the future, that everything was
Speaker 6: okay in the past. Yes we had deficits, but it
Speaker 6: wasn't so bad, and we muddled through, and so it's normal.
Speaker 6: We're still normal. Our deficits are just part of life.
Speaker 6: And then the other part that kills us is the
Speaker 6: is the tendency of people to deny problems. You know
Speaker 6: that people are in denial of problems. We're in denial
Speaker 6: that were going bankrupt. We're in denial. Who talks about that?
Speaker 1: Well, all I hear about is cut to Medicare and Medicaid,
Speaker 1: which is the slight slowing of the increase. I'll give
Speaker 1: you some numbers. I mean, this isn't Democrat Republican. The
Speaker 1: average deficit each year under Barack Hussein Obama was nine
Speaker 1: hundred and ten billion dollars each year on average. Under Trump,
Speaker 1: who I love and respect, it's going to be two
Speaker 1: trillion dollars a year. It's going to double the deficits
Speaker 1: annually under Biden and under Obama. And of course Biden
Speaker 1: averaged one point nine trillion over his four years. So
Speaker 1: essentially Biden added eight eight trillion, and Trump's going to
Speaker 1: add in four years eight trillion, and Obama in eight
Speaker 1: years added about eight trillion. He was there eight year.
Speaker 6: None of that debt's going to be retired, none of
Speaker 6: the words, We're gonna not we're going to be crushed
Speaker 6: by interest payments. Well, you know, there's no getting around.
Speaker 6: You have to service that. You create more debt, you've
Speaker 6: got to service it. You've got to pay the bond holders.
Speaker 6: And if you don't pay them, your default, and if
Speaker 6: you default, then every it's you know, it's turn out
Speaker 6: the lights.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it'll take a wheelbar full of money to buy
Speaker 1: a loaf of bread.
Speaker 6: That's what happened with the with the with the German
Speaker 6: mark after World War One.
Speaker 1: Why are we dealing with Well, whenever I hear a newscast,
Speaker 1: I hear some some news reader tell me there's cuts
Speaker 1: to Medicaid because the rate of increase is slowing because
Speaker 1: of all the waste, fraud and abuse. I want to
Speaker 1: jump through the radio or the TV and see are
Speaker 1: you are you stupid? Are you that stupid? Of course,
Speaker 1: there's no cuts, it's a slight decrease of the increase.
Speaker 1: But I'm reading from doctor Oz who said they've discovered
Speaker 1: there's fourteen billion dollars and do duple get payments made
Speaker 1: in one year on Medicaid. I'm reading this other ninety
Speaker 1: three billion dollars uh the EPA between the time that
Speaker 1: Harris lost and Trump came in. The EPA shoveled out
Speaker 1: the door ninety three billion dollars democratic activist groups we
Speaker 1: never ever did.
Speaker 3: With reality.
Speaker 6: The political corruption is is so out of control that
Speaker 6: I mean, Doge, we both applaud and people should go.
Speaker 6: But but you got to keep going. I mean, uh,
Speaker 6: the the corruption, you know, the the the misallocation of
Speaker 6: funds and the redirection of funds is just unbelievable. It's
Speaker 6: it's outrageous, and you know, it's all being done by
Speaker 6: this so called entrenched deep state. And they use this
Speaker 6: redirected money to pad their not only pad their own
Speaker 6: wall to you know, but to run it back into
Speaker 6: the political system to get their cronies re elected.
Speaker 1: And I'm watching it now, and God blessed Trump and
Speaker 1: Mike Johnson and Senator thun and all the rest. I
Speaker 1: respect Rand Paul that the two House of Representative members
Speaker 1: who did not vote for this last week was my
Speaker 1: friend Warren Davidson I have him on quite often from
Speaker 1: Ohio and Tom Massey from Kentucky. Two voted against it, saying,
Speaker 1: because you know what, there is no cut in federal spending,
Speaker 1: there's an increase. They both agreed to it. I watched
Speaker 1: Senator Johnson of Ron Johnson O Wisconsin with Christopher Ruddy
Speaker 1: on Newsmax. He's saying the same thing he said. I
Speaker 1: love the way that Speaker Johnson is acting boldly. One
Speaker 1: of my disappointments with the House is about the only
Speaker 1: number we have now is at one point five trillion
Speaker 1: reduction over ten years. That's one hundred and fifty billion
Speaker 1: per year. He calls that a When you a trillion
Speaker 1: dollars around, it's it's nothing.
Speaker 6: And everybody needs to understand that as the death grows,
Speaker 6: we get ourselves into an irretrievable UH dynamic that ends
Speaker 6: in bankruptcy.
Speaker 1: It's a death sparal. It's like a plane going down.
Speaker 6: It's a debt death smiral. That's right, and it can't
Speaker 6: you can't turn it around. So I hate to have
Speaker 6: to be a pessimist.
Speaker 1: I want to be objective. I don't want to be optimistic.
Speaker 1: And the idea that over the next ten years we're
Speaker 1: going to grow a way out of this by incentivizing more.
Speaker 1: The numbers are too big.
Speaker 6: It won't work. They're too big. They're too big. The
Speaker 6: only way we grow our way out of this really
Speaker 6: is increasing the revenue side. And Trump has some very
Speaker 6: creative ideas. Sure, for instance, this Golden Disa program. Sure formally,
Speaker 6: sure there are enough people that have signed up for
Speaker 6: it now to basically bring about a trillion and a
Speaker 6: half dollar into the treasury.
Speaker 1: We need a cut federal spending. We go to go
Speaker 1: back to twenty twenty levels of federal spending. Whatever it is. Now,
Speaker 1: we got a surplus. Well, Scott Powell, all your stuff
Speaker 1: is just Google your stuff. I have it all in
Speaker 1: front of me. You do great work. And when it
Speaker 1: comes to rare earth minerals, but this death spiral is
Speaker 1: something that is the most predictive catastrophe ever district this country,
Speaker 1: and we're not dealing with it.
Speaker 6: Yeah, well, let's close with this. There was once a
Speaker 6: guy asked, well, just how did you go bankrupt? And
Speaker 6: you know what his answer was, Well, it was slow
Speaker 6: at first, and then all of a sudden you're bankrupt.
Speaker 1: That's where we are.
Speaker 6: That's exactly what's going to happen to the United States.
Speaker 6: We're going slow now. Even though the debt is increasing,
Speaker 6: the deficits are level or increasing, We're servicing more and
Speaker 6: more debt and we're muddling through it appears, and then
Speaker 6: suddenly it will be you know, there'll be a default
Speaker 6: and then you go bank disaster.
Speaker 1: Scott Powell, thanks for coming on the Bill Cunningham Show.
Speaker 1: We'll do it again. Thank you, Scott.
Speaker 6: Okay, thank god, blessure.
Speaker 1: Let's continue with more. Bill Cunningham with you every Sunday night.
Speaker 1: Well on this glorious veterans Memorial Day week And I
Speaker 1: didn't want to commemorate the sacrifice of so many American
Speaker 1: service personnel men and women. Since seventeen seventy six, about
Speaker 1: one point one million have been killed, their families profoundly affected.
Speaker 1: And I'm proud to live in a nation with so
Speaker 1: many will get their lives for freedom. Thank you. Coming
Speaker 1: up next is the great Leland Vindard of News Nation
Speaker 1: about the Biden difficulties and more on this Memorial Day weekend.
Speaker 1: Bill Cunningham with you every eds of News Nations, the
Speaker 1: main anchor, I call you the main guy there. I'm
Speaker 1: pushing Cromo aside and Leland Verter welcome to the Bill
Speaker 1: Cunningham Show. May you continue to have a great Memorial
Speaker 1: Day weekend. Bill, Thank you, always good to be with you.
Speaker 1: Many issues so little time. Number one, I assume the
Speaker 1: book Original Sin is doing better than I thought, as
Speaker 1: far as the sales by Jake Tapper, Rugget's in there
Speaker 1: and first thing as a newsman, as a correspondent yourself,
Speaker 1: irrespective of what they discover. I can only imagine if
Speaker 1: the grand pooh bahs the news nation, my good friend,
Speaker 1: and you're Sean Compton, if you would develop, over many
Speaker 1: many months or a year or two news items about
Speaker 1: a sitting president and you held those news items from
Speaker 1: the air because you wanted to write a book later
Speaker 1: and make money that would not be well received. Have
Speaker 1: I missed a point here one way or another?
Speaker 9: I don't think it's quite fair to say that about
Speaker 9: Alex Thompson in that Alex Thompson, who's the co author,
Speaker 9: was on my program a number of times in twenty
Speaker 9: twenty three and in twenty twenty four with significant new,
Speaker 9: thoughtful reporting about Joe Biden's help or lack thereof, and
Speaker 9: the accommodations that were made and the internal discussions inside
Speaker 9: the White House. You know, is it fair to criticize
Speaker 9: that after the election they were doing this. I don't know,
Speaker 9: And oftentimes, and I think this is maybe a little
Speaker 9: bit too much inside baseball. But I'm defensive of Alex
Speaker 9: because he's a friend of mine. There's a lot of
Speaker 9: times that sources will talk to you for books or
Speaker 9: for projects that are going to happen after the election,
Speaker 9: when they wouldn't talk to you for day of news stories.
Speaker 9: So I don't think that really is the crux of
Speaker 9: the issue here.
Speaker 1: What is the crux then, because in Jake Tapper's case,
Speaker 1: he had information, either through Alex Thompson or others, that
Speaker 1: the president was mentally incapable of discharging his duties, and
Speaker 1: he acted as if in many interviews. And I'm sure
Speaker 1: you've seen the clips on cable news all the times
Speaker 1: that Jake Tapper attacked those who would question the mental
Speaker 1: acuity of Joe Biden when he knew the opposite was true.
Speaker 1: Isn't that a valid criticism.
Speaker 9: It's a very valid criticism. By the way, you didn't
Speaker 9: have to be deeply sourced in Washington to realize that
Speaker 9: Joe Biden I had lost, He had lost his fastball if
Speaker 9: he ever had one. All you had to do was
Speaker 9: watch Joe Biden and watch what the White House did
Speaker 9: to me. The bigger story here is the threat to democracy,
Speaker 9: and I didn't think it was almost more of a
Speaker 9: subversion of democracy than a threat to it, because what
Speaker 9: has been reported and then this was not known during
Speaker 9: Biden's time in office, was how much he was infirmed
Speaker 9: and thus other people were running the country. And that
Speaker 9: to me is that to me, is one big issue.
Speaker 9: And then the fact that the media was so complicit
Speaker 9: in this, to the point I had Alex Thompson on
Speaker 9: my show a couple of days ago, and he said
Speaker 9: that members of Biden's inner circle even hold him how
Speaker 9: shocked they were the things they got away with and
Speaker 9: how shocked they were. They could bully the media into
Speaker 9: submission or silence on the Joe Biden issue, from the
Speaker 9: health issue out, you know, using threats. If you attack
Speaker 9: Joe Biden, you're helping Donald Trump.
Speaker 1: And it continued. Most of the media, President Company, excluded,
Speaker 1: most of the newspapers covered up in a sense and
Speaker 1: important maybe the cover up of this century. And they
Speaker 1: did it in order to make sure Donald Trump or
Speaker 1: later on Kamala Harris would become the president. Here's here's
Speaker 1: a big question. I don't fully understand because on June
Speaker 1: twenty seventh of last year, the great debate took place
Speaker 1: between Biden and Trump. Surely Biden's team knew running up
Speaker 1: to the debate he was completely incapable of engaging in
Speaker 1: a debate on any issue. In fact, you said at
Speaker 1: one point, we have what we've cut off for destroyed Medicare,
Speaker 1: which I don't know where that came from, and Trump
Speaker 1: at that point said something in the effect I have
Speaker 1: no idea what he's talking about. So why did the handlers,
Speaker 1: Why did doctor Joe Biden and Hunter Biden, the crack
Speaker 1: addict who ran part of the presidency, Why do they
Speaker 1: permit the June twenty seventh debate to go on knowing
Speaker 1: the probable outcome.
Speaker 9: I don't think they thought that was going to be
Speaker 9: the probable outcome. Delusion in group think is a very
Speaker 9: powerful tool, and I think they did not realize how
Speaker 9: horrible it was going to be. I think it's pretty clear.
Speaker 9: I think they also realized they didn't have a choice.
Speaker 9: So those two things sort of came together, and thus
Speaker 9: we had the June twenty seventh debate. I thought the
Speaker 9: most important thing Trump said when Biden said, you know,
Speaker 9: I destroy Medica, Medicaid or whatever it was, is Trump said,
Speaker 9: Trump said, I don't know what he's talking about, and
Speaker 9: then he said I don't think he does either, And that,
Speaker 9: to me was the real sort of point to be made,
Speaker 9: was that it was where everybody was thinking that Joe
Speaker 9: Biden had no idea what he was saying now.
Speaker 1: And the spin room afterwards, of course, I watched that,
Speaker 1: I rolled back watched it again. The spin room from
Speaker 1: Kamala Harris and doctor Joe Biden were as cheerleaders. They
Speaker 1: blatantly lied, knowing the opposite was true, and yet the
Speaker 1: media did not report much on the lies told by
Speaker 1: those two. And so now the reporting is out by
Speaker 1: Alex Thompson and Jake Tapper that there was a small
Speaker 1: coterie of individuals running the presidency with an auto pen
Speaker 1: that included Anita Dunn, Ron Klaine, throw in Hunter Biden,
Speaker 1: the crack addict, throw in doctor Joe Biden. And so
Speaker 1: there's going to be hearings held later this summer on
Speaker 1: who was running the presidency. And you're as in tune
Speaker 1: as anyone in Washington relative to this. Is that good?
Speaker 1: Is that accurate? Reporting? That Joe Biden was not the
Speaker 1: president for big decisions, that the auto pen was used
Speaker 1: to sign bills, a firm Acts of the Congress, appoint ambassadors,
Speaker 1: conduct American foreign policy, appoint federal judges. It was an
Speaker 1: auto pen and Joe Biden, Ron Klaine, Anita Dunn, Hunter Biden,
Speaker 1: they were in fact the president.
Speaker 9: I don't know to what extent that's true, and to
Speaker 9: what extent Also, in any administration, there is a lot
Speaker 9: of things that are done in the name of the
Speaker 9: president that he did not make.
Speaker 1: Every single decision.
Speaker 9: Now he may sign off on it, he may be
Speaker 9: briefed on Hey, these are the ten people we're going
Speaker 9: to appoint for a.
Speaker 5: Federal judge ship.
Speaker 9: I think the larger point you're getting to is a
Speaker 9: real one.
Speaker 5: Which is that.
Speaker 9: Joe Biden could not discharge the office of the presidency
Speaker 9: as we know it. And and Thompson in the book,
Speaker 9: there's a passage about something that you know, basically there
Speaker 9: was five people running the country Mike Donald Stever Setti
Speaker 9: on that list that you laid out, and best Joe
Speaker 9: Biden was a senior member of the board. Well, that's
Speaker 9: just not how it's supposed to work. That's not what
Speaker 9: American democracy is.
Speaker 1: So I think, you.
Speaker 9: Know, there is a lot more to see although and
Speaker 9: find out. I think it is interesting how now three
Speaker 9: days after or four days after the book came out,
Speaker 9: I came out on Tuesday, there is so little interest
Speaker 9: and there's so little interest in finding out more about
Speaker 9: Joe Biden's cancer diagnosis, and when exactly he was diagnosed
Speaker 9: with cancer, and if he was earlier, why the cover
Speaker 9: up and who did it? And if he was diagnosed
Speaker 9: just last week as he claims, how something so simple
Speaker 9: is so obvious in the man with the best medical
Speaker 9: care in the world was missed.
Speaker 1: In fact, he has medical team's following him. He said
Speaker 1: cancer before polyps, and he said cancer skin. I would
Speaker 1: think as an elderly American, I'm like a man not
Speaker 1: quite that old, but I get PSA test done every year.
Speaker 1: I have a digital rectal exams DREES. It's part of
Speaker 1: the deal. I do not believe that his medical team
Speaker 1: really was in the dark for eleven or twelve years
Speaker 1: about the PSA number. I do not believe that. Of course,
Speaker 1: I disbelieve the idea that he received terrible medical care
Speaker 1: and now he's got stage four in the Gleason's score
Speaker 1: of nine, which means he's dying over the next two
Speaker 1: to three to four years, very likely, but testasize to
Speaker 1: the bone. Do you believe that the medical team around
Speaker 1: the President of the United States had no clue about
Speaker 1: this for eleven years. No, I don't.
Speaker 9: And not only that, there's no reason to believe Keem
Speaker 9: Biden when they say that, right, we know they have
Speaker 9: covered up the past health issues. I'll give you one
Speaker 9: more thing that if he was under medical care for
Speaker 9: prostate cancer, which seems to be the most likely scenario,
Speaker 9: the drugs that are giving for that, the hormone therapy
Speaker 9: and the other drugs that are given for prostate cancer
Speaker 9: create a lot of the cognitive issues that we observed
Speaker 9: in Joe Biden over the past couple of years.
Speaker 1: Yeah, the cover up continues now. Second issue, the tax bill.
Speaker 1: There were two Congressmen who voted against it on the
Speaker 1: Republican side. One was Thomas Massey, a frequent guest of
Speaker 1: mine from northern Kentucky. The other one is Warren Davidson,
Speaker 1: a frequent guest of mine and a friend of mine
Speaker 1: from Ohio. Those two along said no, and Warren davids
Speaker 1: and Congressman sent me the budget for the next three
Speaker 1: to four years. Despite what dose is doing, Despite all
Speaker 1: the cuts in the federal workforce, we continue to borrow
Speaker 1: about two trillion dollars every year for the next four
Speaker 1: to five years until at least twenty twenty nine or
Speaker 1: twenty thirty, and so these men consider them to be principal.
Speaker 1: It said, now, wait a minute. We're here to cut spending,
Speaker 1: and we're not here to play winners and losers black
Speaker 1: and white. It's not blue or red, it's green, which
Speaker 1: is the money. We're still going to borrow two trillion
Speaker 1: dollars and a few days ago on the ten and
Speaker 1: twenty year treasury notes, and we had to pay more interest.
Speaker 1: Large numbers of foreign investors and others want more interest
Speaker 1: to take our debt. We have about eight to ten
Speaker 1: trillion of debt coming due later this year. That was
Speaker 1: at one point seventy five now it's going to be
Speaker 1: close to five percent. In other words, there's nothing that's
Speaker 1: happened with DOGE or cuts to the federal workforce that's
Speaker 1: going to change the amount of money we borrow. And
Speaker 1: that's why Thomas Massey and Warren Davidson Republicans, withstood the
Speaker 1: pressure and said, not on my watch, your comments.
Speaker 9: Of the federal budget cannot be repealed by Donald Trump
Speaker 9: as powerful as he is. The economic reality is a
Speaker 9: is a reality. And I'm I'm an old fashioned conservative
Speaker 9: in the sense, in the sense of budgets. You know,
Speaker 9: it is interesting that America says they are conservative and
Speaker 9: fiscally conservative is George will point out last.
Speaker 1: Time in the show.
Speaker 9: Their fiscally conservative in words only in actions their fdr liberals.
Speaker 6: Uh.
Speaker 9: The fact that the United States can continue to print
Speaker 9: money forever and ever makes us different than than every
Speaker 9: country in the world. And tell it does not. And
Speaker 9: I think what you are seeing slowly, as Hevy Away
Speaker 9: once wrote, and then suddenly, is a retreat of America
Speaker 9: from the pinnacle of being an indispensable nation in the world.
Speaker 9: And here's where I think is the sad part. Donald Trump,
Speaker 9: who is a man in deep desire of a legacy
Speaker 9: and a place, you know, in greatness of American presidents,
Speaker 9: could have really done that with this, could have reformed
Speaker 9: Social Security, could have reformed Medicaid, could have actually forced
Speaker 9: through big cuts. We now know that DOGE did far
Speaker 9: less than ten percent of what it promised, and could
Speaker 9: have changed the trajectory of America's financial future for the
Speaker 9: next one hundred years. This was a big missed opportunity
Speaker 9: to get a couple of tax cuts, and I think
Speaker 9: that will go down as just that, a real missed opportunity.
Speaker 1: For the last three or four months, all I've seen
Speaker 1: is about Doosee taking a chainsaw. I've heard the slashing Medicare, Medicaid,
Speaker 1: et cetera. At the bottom line, we're spending more money
Speaker 1: and the next fiscal, then we spend in the last
Speaker 1: fiscal more money after that. I love the term dynamic
Speaker 1: scoring was not done by the CBO. That doesn't take
Speaker 1: into account all the economic growth and the TEX cuts.
Speaker 1: But in reality, we cannot owe fifty trillion dollars with
Speaker 1: another one hundred and fifty trillion and unfunded liabilities, and
Speaker 1: stay is a nation that's functional. We can't do it.
Speaker 1: It doesn't work. And these piddling arguments about work requirements
Speaker 1: are interesting, But to change the financial trajectory, the most
Speaker 1: predictive calamity is about to strike America in the next
Speaker 1: five to ten years has been avoided again. And I've
Speaker 1: said Leland Vedderte of News Nation before that, if this
Speaker 1: crew cannot get that done, if this crew cannot advance
Speaker 1: social security retirement, age means tested to some extent. If
Speaker 1: this crew cannot change the trajectory of our debt, then
Speaker 1: there's no hope with a Keem Jeffreys or Governor Pritzer
Speaker 1: becoming the president of them doing it, and we're in
Speaker 1: deep trouble.
Speaker 9: But well, I don't think it's not only not a hope,
Speaker 9: but there's not a desire.
Speaker 1: Yeah, if you don't have a desire, there's no hope. Well,
Speaker 1: I have no hope. And these other nations are going
Speaker 1: to No, they don't want to. They want to favor
Speaker 1: whichever party's in power. Those who support that party get
Speaker 1: the goodies, and the other party gets a haircut, and
Speaker 1: then the other party gets back in charge and the opposite
Speaker 1: takes place. And that's just the way it is. And
Speaker 1: I don't there's no desire. And that's why to an extent,
Speaker 1: I get Congressman Thomas Massey, and I get Warren Davidson.
Speaker 1: At least they're saying, no, wait a minute, we can't
Speaker 1: live like this much longer. And at some point the
Speaker 1: chickens are going to come home to roost, and you
Speaker 1: don't want to be around when it happens. Is going
Speaker 1: to be very ugly. It's going to be a nineteen
Speaker 1: thirties type Germany situation in which we're going to need
Speaker 1: wheale barrows full of money to buy a loaf of
Speaker 1: bread because the value of our currency is going to
Speaker 1: plumb and anyone getting a check from the government's going
Speaker 1: to suffer along with many others. But Leland vetter to
Speaker 1: continue to have a great Memorial Day weekend. I'll continue
Speaker 1: to watch and we'll see what happens down the road
Speaker 1: with Harvard et cetera, and see what happens with the
Speaker 1: tax bill as he goes to the Senate. But once again,
Speaker 1: thanks for coming on the Bill Cunningham Show, and Leland,
Speaker 1: you're a great American. Thank you very much. Thank you, Bill,
Speaker 1: God bless you. Letus continue with more happy days are
Speaker 1: here again. Spend as if there's no tomorrow, borrow more money,
Speaker 1: pass on the bills through our kids and grandkids. Let
Speaker 1: them deal with it, and don't like it one bit.
Speaker 1: I had hopes of doge what one trillion, two trillion.
Speaker 1: It turned out to be less than one hundred and
Speaker 1: fifty billion dollars, a well less than ten percent and
Speaker 1: probably closer to five percent. And then that will grow
Speaker 1: over time. Back once again. Well over two trillion dollars
Speaker 1: a year that we borrow, which is about six billion
Speaker 1: dollars every day of new money. Bill Cunningham, the Grand American,
Speaker 1: live with you every Sunday night.
Speaker 7: Here's what's trending now on the new and improved iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 9: Sarah Jessica Parker almost walked away from Sex and the City.
Speaker 1: She talks about that and a lot more. Billy Cunningham
Speaker 1: once again, Memorial Day is tomorrow, Mymorral Day weekends ongoing,
Speaker 1: and I want to again recognize the sacrifice of about
Speaker 1: one point one million Americans, men and women that have
Speaker 1: given their life for this nation since seventeen seventy six.
Speaker 1: And it is a sacrifice that so few of us make,
Speaker 1: and the families profoundly affected, and I thank them for
Speaker 1: their sacrifices, and I acknowledge those left behind. This weekend
Speaker 1: need a special commemoration. And lastly, Leland Vedder mentioned it,
Speaker 1: as did Scott Powell, that we live in difficult times.
Speaker 1: Thank god we have a president that's functioning right now,
Speaker 1: not one who's not mentally alert, who was taken over
Speaker 1: by doctor Joe Biden and Hunter Biden and Ron Klain
Speaker 1: and Anita Dunn and others who ran the presidency as
Speaker 1: the media was quiet, didn't say a damn thing. In fact,
Speaker 1: they were complicit in the cover up. The greatest cover
Speaker 1: up the twenty first century politically has been the inability
Speaker 1: of the mainstream needed to recognize that the Biden presidency
Speaker 1: was a fake and a fraud from the moment Hunter
Speaker 1: Biden and the family maximized their money from overseas sources.
Speaker 1: The family should be investigated. And we have a presidency
Speaker 1: that was covered up in this competency by Nancy Pelosi
Speaker 1: and Chuck Schumer and Keem Jefferies and all the Democrats
Speaker 1: who knew they had a Putts of putts in the
Speaker 1: White House they could manipulate and use the auto pen
Speaker 1: to create pieces of legislation and or to open up
Speaker 1: the southern border, and or to appoint federal judges and
Speaker 1: or to sign bills that Joe Biden himself had no
Speaker 1: clue what was going on. But thanks for listening to
Speaker 1: some Memorial Day weekend, and once again, if you time tomorrow,
Speaker 1: say solent prayer for the sacrifice of one point one
Speaker 1: million Americans who gave it all so we can enjoy
Speaker 1: the freedoms they paid for with their blood and with
Speaker 1: their lives. Say a prayer for them, and once again
Speaker 1: we acknowledged that the sacrifice also of the families and
Speaker 1: the ones left behind. Bill Cunningham, the Great American, with you,
Speaker 1: all great Americans, every Sunday night,
