The well 14 00:01:01.320 --> 00:01:04.040 obviously dysfunction in the city of Cincinnati. Today we'll talk 15 00:01:04.040 --> 00:01:06.560 with Todd about gun violence in the city. Topic of 16 00:01:06.680 --> 00:01:12.200 conversation a lot this week, beginning with Christopher Smithman and 17 00:01:12.519 --> 00:01:16.319 FOP President Ken Favor earlier this week on Monday. Since 18 00:01:16.359 --> 00:01:19.519 a pension liability, Yeah, we've got one of those. Fortunately, 19 00:01:19.519 --> 00:01:22.280 we're not as bad off as Illinois. Man, what a 20 00:01:22.319 --> 00:01:24.319 train wreck Illinois as If you read anything about their 21 00:01:24.319 --> 00:01:27.680 pension problems. We'll alt's talk about mismanagement and a lack 22 00:01:27.760 --> 00:01:31.480 of accountability from city leaders maintenance of the city's fleet. 23 00:01:32.040 --> 00:01:35.920 They don't care about that. Connected communities or not, as 24 00:01:35.959 --> 00:01:39.000 the case may be here, you must do connected communities 25 00:01:39.079 --> 00:01:41.400 zoning unless you're hyde parking, which case we're not going 26 00:01:41.480 --> 00:01:43.079 to let you steer the direction of your own future. 27 00:01:43.079 --> 00:01:45.560 In terms of zoning, We're gonna tell you we're waving 28 00:01:45.560 --> 00:01:49.079 connected communities for a well connected developer to build a massive, 29 00:01:49.159 --> 00:01:52.640 monstrous hotel in spite of your objections to it. Yeah, 30 00:01:52.760 --> 00:01:56.239 well that'll be on the ballot anyway. Green Cincinnati Plan 31 00:01:56.920 --> 00:01:59.719 also a big thing for our elected officials in the city, 32 00:02:00.519 --> 00:02:06.560 to the exclusion of other perhaps higher priorities for those 33 00:02:06.599 --> 00:02:10.719 that they represent the constituents, like safe communities for example. 34 00:02:11.520 --> 00:02:16.479 Get to that topic in just a minute. Aaron Weiner, 35 00:02:16.639 --> 00:02:19.400 a member of the Clifton Community Council, about the street 36 00:02:19.439 --> 00:02:22.479 takeover that happened in Clifton the other day. Really awful situation, 37 00:02:23.319 --> 00:02:27.240 a bunch of kids running amok. And actually there was 38 00:02:27.280 --> 00:02:30.479 one of those incidents that happened just the other day 39 00:02:30.639 --> 00:02:35.240 in Summit County. Five people shot ten run over during 40 00:02:35.240 --> 00:02:38.719 a mass gathering at an Ohio school parking lot having 41 00:02:38.759 --> 00:02:41.319 on Monday morning. It's in the Akron area. One hundred 42 00:02:41.360 --> 00:02:44.680 to one hundred and fifty people, mostly teens, mingling around 43 00:02:44.680 --> 00:02:47.879 a parking lot having a party outside the Mazing Community 44 00:02:47.960 --> 00:02:51.280 Learning Center, not permitted to be on the property for 45 00:02:51.560 --> 00:02:56.960 what they called impromptu get together, courting police three o'clock 46 00:02:57.080 --> 00:03:03.000 in the morning, going back to where are your children, Joe, 47 00:03:03.000 --> 00:03:05.199 When you were fourteen, would you mom and dad let 48 00:03:05.280 --> 00:03:09.719 you out till at three o'clock in the morning. Absolutely not. Yeah, 49 00:03:09.719 --> 00:03:11.960 that would have been my parents response, Why are you 50 00:03:12.039 --> 00:03:12.840 out of your mind? 51 00:03:13.960 --> 00:03:14.039 No? 52 00:03:15.400 --> 00:03:17.840 What could possibly be going on? That's good? At three 53 00:03:17.840 --> 00:03:21.639 o'clock in the morning. It's all captured on surveillance that 54 00:03:21.759 --> 00:03:25.240 a large crowd running taking cover. His shots were fired. 55 00:03:25.319 --> 00:03:29.439 Five people between the ages of fourteen and twenty shot 56 00:03:29.479 --> 00:03:33.360 and taken to the hospital stayed in the obvious Akronmayor 57 00:03:33.680 --> 00:03:37.120 Seamus Mallet quote, teenagers have no business being out partying 58 00:03:37.159 --> 00:03:40.439 at three am. We need parents in our community to 59 00:03:40.439 --> 00:03:43.120 work with us to ensure that children are home when 60 00:03:43.159 --> 00:03:46.319 they need to be. Boy, if only more people followed 61 00:03:46.319 --> 00:03:51.159 that simple advice. They also said ten people got run 62 00:03:51.199 --> 00:03:54.800 over or hit by cars trying to leave the party. Thankfully, 63 00:03:55.520 --> 00:03:58.800 the victims suffered non life threatening injuries and maybe a 64 00:03:58.879 --> 00:04:04.759 wake up called to the parents. Jeez, Louise. Anyway, street 65 00:04:04.759 --> 00:04:07.159 takeover going on here as well. Aaron will be talking 66 00:04:07.159 --> 00:04:09.479 about that. Aaron's also running for since City Council, the 67 00:04:09.560 --> 00:04:13.319 Charter Committee candidate he is, and the Charter Committee still around. 68 00:04:13.360 --> 00:04:17.199 Great alternative to the Democrats. Jay Ratliff I heard media 69 00:04:17.199 --> 00:04:20.920 aviation expert Jay Ratliffe at eight thirty got TSA making 70 00:04:20.959 --> 00:04:24.360 a major announcement about shoes. We won't have to take 71 00:04:24.360 --> 00:04:27.639 our shoes off anymore. Apparently British Airways passenger forced to 72 00:04:27.720 --> 00:04:32.279 endure a seven hour delay on the ground because of 73 00:04:32.279 --> 00:04:37.120 a mechanical situation. That is absolute torture. It's one of 74 00:04:37.160 --> 00:04:40.319 the reasons why I really detest flying. Situations like that 75 00:04:40.480 --> 00:04:44.560 lightning strike triggering a fire, suppressing foam at Spirit Airlines 76 00:04:44.600 --> 00:04:49.040 hangar and a battery fire. A passenger had some sort 77 00:04:49.079 --> 00:04:52.439 of device and enforced adulta flight to make an emergency landing. 78 00:04:52.759 --> 00:04:55.040 Plus we always get an update on hub delays. Love 79 00:04:55.120 --> 00:04:57.079 hearing from you. If there's something you like to talk about, 80 00:04:57.079 --> 00:04:59.399 feel free to call five one three, seven, four, nine 81 00:04:59.480 --> 00:05:02.480 fifty five hundred, eight hundred eighty two to three, Talk 82 00:05:02.879 --> 00:05:08.959 Time five fifty on eight and t phones press conference yesterday. Yes, 83 00:05:09.439 --> 00:05:14.000 actually addressing crime here in the City of Cincinnati, City 84 00:05:14.000 --> 00:05:18.199 Manager share A Long said, the red bike and the 85 00:05:18.319 --> 00:05:21.759 Bird and Limes scooter device, remember we've banned They shut 86 00:05:21.800 --> 00:05:25.439 down the operation of those over the July fourth weekend 87 00:05:25.600 --> 00:05:28.199 because well, they were trying to use that as an 88 00:05:28.240 --> 00:05:31.759 experimental level to see if taking away transportation like red 89 00:05:31.759 --> 00:05:38.959 bikes and e scooters would reduce crime in the downtown area. Well, 90 00:05:39.160 --> 00:05:41.279 they said it proved to be a success and eliminating 91 00:05:41.319 --> 00:05:43.399 the type of incidents people have struggled with. As the 92 00:05:43.480 --> 00:05:46.120 words of City Manager share A Long, thank you to 93 00:05:46.199 --> 00:05:50.959 the inquires Quinlan Bentley for reporting. Long said, the restrictions 94 00:05:51.000 --> 00:05:56.079 are going to kick in again. That will be this Friday. 95 00:05:56.319 --> 00:06:00.120 I guess yeah, today's a tenth man time flyes by 96 00:06:00.560 --> 00:06:05.560 will be tomorrow and twelve Saturday, eight pm until six am, 97 00:06:06.240 --> 00:06:09.040 and then the city will continue to assess the restrictions 98 00:06:09.040 --> 00:06:13.759 on a week by week basis. Again. They described the 99 00:06:13.800 --> 00:06:16.439 first restriction as a trial effort by city leaders to 100 00:06:16.839 --> 00:06:20.360 combat a recent rising crime across Cincinnati, particularly in the 101 00:06:20.600 --> 00:06:25.759 urban cores. They also created roving Task Force. Police Chief 102 00:06:25.800 --> 00:06:29.360 Fiji commented about that yesterday as well. At this meeting 103 00:06:29.399 --> 00:06:34.360 regarding crime, Long express concerns about these bikes and scooters 104 00:06:34.439 --> 00:06:37.360 being used to commit crimes and help purpse escape from 105 00:06:37.439 --> 00:06:41.879 the police. She said, they're being used to more efficiently 106 00:06:41.920 --> 00:06:46.399 commit property crimes, steal guns, and create quality of life issues. 107 00:06:46.439 --> 00:06:48.680 They themselves are not the issues, meaning the bikes and 108 00:06:48.680 --> 00:06:50.879 the scooters, nor are the vast majority of people who 109 00:06:50.959 --> 00:06:53.639 ride them safely, but they become a useful tool for 110 00:06:53.680 --> 00:07:01.360 a criminals intent on causing harm. Bikes, they say, we'll 111 00:07:01.399 --> 00:07:04.439 still be able to be rented during the daytime hours 112 00:07:04.519 --> 00:07:06.800 and at night as long as you're outside of the 113 00:07:06.800 --> 00:07:10.120 downtown and over the Rhine areas. If you leave the 114 00:07:10.240 --> 00:07:14.160 urban core with a bike during usable hours, you can 115 00:07:14.279 --> 00:07:16.240 return the bike to the dock, but you won't be 116 00:07:16.240 --> 00:07:18.360 able to take one out. As far as the East 117 00:07:18.360 --> 00:07:20.959 scooters are concerned, apparently they have an agreement with the city, 118 00:07:21.040 --> 00:07:24.600 these companies that run them restricting where those scooters can 119 00:07:24.639 --> 00:07:28.959 be ridden, as well as when they can be rented 120 00:07:29.000 --> 00:07:32.800 and how fast they go. So they're already restricted. Apparently 121 00:07:33.240 --> 00:07:35.920 from being running between eleven pm and six am all 122 00:07:36.079 --> 00:07:39.839 week long. So this is just a extension of that restriction. 123 00:07:40.439 --> 00:07:46.439 The question whether it'll do any good or not, huh. 124 00:07:46.480 --> 00:07:48.079 And you know, it kind of answered the question I 125 00:07:48.120 --> 00:07:52.240 had the other day. Police Chief Diji at this press 126 00:07:52.240 --> 00:07:54.920 conference talking about, you know, the task force and everything 127 00:07:54.959 --> 00:07:57.600 else they're trying to do to sort of put a 128 00:07:57.639 --> 00:07:59.720 stop to the growing crime problem we have in the 129 00:08:01.399 --> 00:08:05.720 in the downtown area, she said the task force recovered 130 00:08:05.720 --> 00:08:08.480 twelve firearms, two of which were stolen. From June eighth 131 00:08:08.680 --> 00:08:11.399 to July fifth. There were more than two hundred and 132 00:08:11.600 --> 00:08:17.600 fifty thefts from vehicles in the city between the eighth 133 00:08:17.680 --> 00:08:19.519 and the fifth, or of June eighth and the fifth, 134 00:08:19.560 --> 00:08:21.759 basically one month, two hundred and fifty fifth from vehicles 135 00:08:21.759 --> 00:08:26.079 in the city. Thirty four firearms taken during those thefts. 136 00:08:26.519 --> 00:08:28.079 And that may prove to be the answer to my 137 00:08:28.160 --> 00:08:29.720 question because I asked Joe the other day, when you 138 00:08:29.759 --> 00:08:31.680 were fourteen, did you have four or five hundred dollars 139 00:08:31.759 --> 00:08:33.480 laying around to go out and buy your own glock, 140 00:08:33.960 --> 00:08:36.320 assuming you could buy one at that age, even though 141 00:08:36.360 --> 00:08:38.480 you're not old enough to own one or buy one. 142 00:08:38.759 --> 00:08:40.759 I'm sure there are places where they can find them. 143 00:08:40.759 --> 00:08:42.679 They might be able to find them because they're stolen 144 00:08:42.799 --> 00:08:51.200 out of vehicles. The said where the firearms come from 145 00:08:51.360 --> 00:08:55.440 to paint a broad brush socceeoeconomic reality of people who 146 00:08:55.559 --> 00:08:59.240 might run around or randomly, you know, engaging in gunplay 147 00:08:59.320 --> 00:09:03.240 downtown shooting in the crowds of people randomly. Don't know 148 00:09:03.320 --> 00:09:05.399 who they are, don't know where they come from, don't 149 00:09:05.399 --> 00:09:07.600 know how much money they make, but safe to say 150 00:09:08.679 --> 00:09:13.000 probably not a lot of additional disposable income. So my 151 00:09:13.080 --> 00:09:16.120 advice would be, don't leave your firearm in your vehicle. 152 00:09:17.600 --> 00:09:20.519 I think they probably have figured out where you stow them. 153 00:09:20.759 --> 00:09:23.039 Maybe under the seed, maybe it's in the glove box, 154 00:09:23.080 --> 00:09:25.679 maybe it's someplace else. But you know, there's only so 155 00:09:25.720 --> 00:09:28.320 many places you can stash a firearm in your car, 156 00:09:28.639 --> 00:09:30.399 And I figure, if they're going to break into a 157 00:09:30.440 --> 00:09:32.639 car anyway, they're probably going to do a pretty thorough 158 00:09:32.720 --> 00:09:37.120 job looking around for stuff that they want, like firearms. 159 00:09:39.279 --> 00:09:41.759 City manager Long said the stolen guns commonly use the 160 00:09:41.759 --> 00:09:44.840 commission of crimes. Every single weekend, guns are being stolen 161 00:09:44.840 --> 00:09:47.159 from cars every single weekend. Those guns are used to 162 00:09:47.200 --> 00:09:50.200 commit crimes to cause harm. So let's put an end 163 00:09:50.200 --> 00:09:53.480 to that. Something we can easily do. Don't leave your 164 00:09:53.519 --> 00:09:56.879 firearm in your car. I know that doesn't solve the 165 00:09:56.879 --> 00:10:00.440 problem for folks. I status of the law murky on 166 00:10:00.480 --> 00:10:03.080 that one. I was thinking of folks like going to dinner, 167 00:10:03.159 --> 00:10:05.759 they leave their firearm in their car. They go to dinner, 168 00:10:05.799 --> 00:10:07.360 they don't take it with them because they're going to 169 00:10:07.399 --> 00:10:11.159 be consuming alcohol. Presumably not enough alcohol to impair you 170 00:10:11.279 --> 00:10:17.039 so that you're driving under the influence of alcohol. But 171 00:10:17.120 --> 00:10:19.639 you obviously can't take your firearm into the bar restaurant 172 00:10:19.639 --> 00:10:21.799 when you're consuming, so you got to leave it someplace, 173 00:10:22.519 --> 00:10:25.240 perhaps locking it in the trunk. Maybe that's a better 174 00:10:25.279 --> 00:10:27.440 option for you. I don't know, but it's something you 175 00:10:27.480 --> 00:10:30.919 need to think about because property crime is going through 176 00:10:31.039 --> 00:10:33.440 the roof and downtown Cincinnati, and I don't think taking 177 00:10:33.480 --> 00:10:37.559 red bikes off the street during specific hours over the 178 00:10:37.600 --> 00:10:42.120 weekend is going to stop that from happening.

I really enjoyed myself. Always do my submariner 189 00:11:10.120 --> 00:11:12.919 friend Cribbage Mike, I won again. That's four times in 190 00:11:13.000 --> 00:11:16.320 a row. I'm on a winning streak. Couldn't believe it. 191 00:11:16.480 --> 00:11:19.600 His grandson gave me good luck but great seeing everybody, 192 00:11:19.720 --> 00:11:22.679 and a special extra special shout out to my friend Kevin. 193 00:11:22.799 --> 00:11:28.399 The barbecue master. Made me some pastrami and some bacon, 194 00:11:28.639 --> 00:11:33.440 and some pastrami bacon and other smoked meats. Oh my god, 195 00:11:33.519 --> 00:11:36.679 it was so good. We had Pastrami's ruben sandwiches for 196 00:11:36.720 --> 00:11:39.600 dinner last night. Just a little extra perk. And yes, 197 00:11:39.600 --> 00:11:42.440 some days it's really really good to be me. When 198 00:11:42.480 --> 00:11:46.679 Kevin shows up with barbecue, it's a good day. God 199 00:11:46.720 --> 00:11:49.919 bless you, Kevin. Anyhow, if I went three seven, four 200 00:11:49.960 --> 00:11:53.039 nine two three, talk pound five fifty on eight and 201 00:11:53.039 --> 00:11:55.240 t funds all. By the way, A Wandering Monsters makes 202 00:11:55.240 --> 00:11:58.759 a really great IPA. It has a terrible name though, 203 00:11:58.840 --> 00:12:04.840 guys over at Wandering come on, double Cheese Coney, I 204 00:12:04.840 --> 00:12:06.840 think was the name of it. I asked the owner 205 00:12:07.159 --> 00:12:09.720 the brewmasters, like, does it taste like chili? Because I 206 00:12:09.720 --> 00:12:11.320 don't want I mean, there's so many weird beers out 207 00:12:11.360 --> 00:12:12.960 there these days, it wouldn't shock me they have a 208 00:12:12.960 --> 00:12:15.480 beer out there that tastes like a Skyline three way 209 00:12:15.559 --> 00:12:18.799 or something. Nope, that's just the name of it. So 210 00:12:19.200 --> 00:12:22.120 you know, if you have to do some explaining before 211 00:12:22.159 --> 00:12:24.720 you drink a beer or selected based on the name, 212 00:12:24.799 --> 00:12:26.720 I think maybe it might be a good time to 213 00:12:26.799 --> 00:12:28.440 change it. But it was a double ipa and it 214 00:12:28.519 --> 00:12:33.840 was just outstanding, So really good beers a dull Wandering Monster, 215 00:12:33.879 --> 00:12:36.360 So cheers of them, and thanks for the great customer service. 216 00:12:36.399 --> 00:12:40.279 We really enjoyed ourselves, at least I did. Anyway, Just 217 00:12:40.320 --> 00:12:42.120 an out loud question, not going to run down the 218 00:12:42.159 --> 00:12:46.279 road necessarily, but does anybody find the whole Epstein file 219 00:12:46.440 --> 00:12:50.159 thing kind of kind of weird? Suspicious? I mean we 220 00:12:50.159 --> 00:12:53.679 were told previously that. I guess BONDI had the stack 221 00:12:53.720 --> 00:12:55.799 of information sitting on her desk and she tried to 222 00:12:55.799 --> 00:12:58.080 backpedal around that. The other day the client list was 223 00:12:58.080 --> 00:13:01.080 what was specifically asked of her. It's laying on my 224 00:13:01.159 --> 00:13:03.039 desk waiting for me to review it, and then comes 225 00:13:03.080 --> 00:13:05.360 out the other day say nothing else will be handed out. 226 00:13:05.399 --> 00:13:08.320 There isn't anything to see here. It's all child born 227 00:13:08.399 --> 00:13:10.600 and we're of course not going to release childborn. I 228 00:13:10.639 --> 00:13:16.360 get that, But there were so many victims and so 229 00:13:16.360 --> 00:13:19.240 many perpetrators. You know, it wasn't just Epstein having sex 230 00:13:19.320 --> 00:13:22.720 with underage girls. It was all those that surrounded him. 231 00:13:22.720 --> 00:13:24.519 And we've heard some of the names and some of 232 00:13:24.519 --> 00:13:30.039 the details of others. Aren't those prosecutable offenses? Was there 233 00:13:30.039 --> 00:13:33.399 nothing else there to be to be seen? And then 234 00:13:33.559 --> 00:13:35.240 the other component of this is and not to be 235 00:13:35.279 --> 00:13:38.360 critical of Donald Trump, And he got really, like me, 236 00:13:38.519 --> 00:13:42.879 think the lady doth protests too much, kind of irritated 237 00:13:42.879 --> 00:13:45.039 when he was asked about this by a reporter the 238 00:13:45.120 --> 00:13:47.279 other day. What are you still talking about that that 239 00:13:47.399 --> 00:13:52.399 was years ago? Well, you know, it's a rather controversial 240 00:13:52.440 --> 00:13:55.240 issue swirling around this guy. He rubbed shoulders with some 241 00:13:55.240 --> 00:13:58.320 of the most famous people on the earth, from Hollywood 242 00:13:58.320 --> 00:14:02.720 celebrities to the moguls and big corporations. He was busted 243 00:14:02.840 --> 00:14:08.600 himself for for for molesting children, and of course we 244 00:14:08.679 --> 00:14:10.879 understand they continue to do it based upon the evidence 245 00:14:10.879 --> 00:14:13.440 they found. He had multiple cameras in all of his buildings, 246 00:14:13.440 --> 00:14:17.159 and everyone suspected that was used for blackmail purposes. But 247 00:14:17.279 --> 00:14:19.799 I think Trump got a little over the over the 248 00:14:19.840 --> 00:14:22.679 line though with his response, but being angry to having 249 00:14:22.919 --> 00:14:25.399 that question asked of him. We've got so much going 250 00:14:25.440 --> 00:14:28.480 on in the world. I can't believe you're focusing on that. Well, 251 00:14:28.559 --> 00:14:31.559 you know, it's a question of one's priorities. Reporters don't 252 00:14:31.639 --> 00:14:34.000 have to go with what the big, giant, you know, 253 00:14:34.120 --> 00:14:37.440 huge story is that particular day. And I thought this 254 00:14:37.600 --> 00:14:40.399 was I expose it's a rather prominent story for her 255 00:14:40.440 --> 00:14:42.080 to come out and say, no, nothing to see here, 256 00:14:42.080 --> 00:14:45.240 There is no list, that's it. It's over so and 257 00:14:45.399 --> 00:14:48.360 obviously it has cost all kinds of reaction, kind of 258 00:14:48.600 --> 00:14:52.039 a little more well angrier than I am about the 259 00:14:52.039 --> 00:14:54.240 whole thing. I just I scratched my head and puzzle 260 00:14:54.360 --> 00:14:56.519 over it more than get angry or just you know, 261 00:14:56.720 --> 00:15:00.360 assume that they're lying to me. It's easy come to 262 00:15:00.399 --> 00:15:02.919 that conclusion these days. Is it over the bones? We go, 263 00:15:03.039 --> 00:15:05.200 Let's do what Jay's guy, Jay, thanks for calling this morning. 264 00:15:05.240 --> 00:15:06.960 Happy Friday Eve to you of my friend. 265 00:15:07.879 --> 00:15:09.279 Hey, Happy Friday, Brian. 266 00:15:09.720 --> 00:15:11.000 A nice job. 267 00:15:11.080 --> 00:15:13.600 Really well done you and Joe on that the interview 268 00:15:13.840 --> 00:15:17.559 you did with Dan Law with the attorney yesterday resuming 269 00:15:17.639 --> 00:15:20.919 the Cleveland Brown's gift of six hundred million dollars for 270 00:15:21.120 --> 00:15:22.879 taxpayers unclaimed funds. 271 00:15:22.960 --> 00:15:24.879 Yeah, I wish you all the luck in the world 272 00:15:24.879 --> 00:15:25.799 of that one. 273 00:15:26.440 --> 00:15:28.039 Well, I think there might be a way that we 274 00:15:28.039 --> 00:15:31.679 can help the case. Back in April or May, I 275 00:15:31.759 --> 00:15:36.320 submitted a fraud waste and abuse hot I got under 276 00:15:36.360 --> 00:15:39.320 fraud waste and abuse hotline and reported a six hundred 277 00:15:39.320 --> 00:15:42.240 million dollars of taxpayer money was given to a private 278 00:15:42.279 --> 00:15:47.159 business and told him it was the Cleveland Browns, and 279 00:15:47.480 --> 00:15:49.200 they got back to me. I got a phone call 280 00:15:49.240 --> 00:15:52.080 because I think they're obligated to call you back, and 281 00:15:52.120 --> 00:15:54.759 they said, yeah, we talked about it at staff and 282 00:15:54.799 --> 00:15:57.480 decided that we're not going to pursue this. I said, well, 283 00:15:57.480 --> 00:16:00.840 who is we, what staff meeting and by what standard 284 00:16:00.879 --> 00:16:04.480 did you decide that this wasn't worthy of pursuing. They 285 00:16:04.519 --> 00:16:07.919 wouldn't give me any of those answers. I kept pressing, 286 00:16:08.320 --> 00:16:11.279 and they said, if you want to pursue this. You 287 00:16:11.279 --> 00:16:14.759 can hire an attorney because we are here to defend 288 00:16:14.840 --> 00:16:19.360 the Ohio state government. I said, no, your job is 289 00:16:19.399 --> 00:16:24.480 to protect Ohioans, Yeah, from fraud, waste, and abuse. Asked 290 00:16:24.480 --> 00:16:26.360 to talk to that person's supervisor. 291 00:16:26.480 --> 00:16:27.519 They got on the line. 292 00:16:27.840 --> 00:16:30.200 They read from the same card that said that if 293 00:16:30.240 --> 00:16:32.440 I wanted to pursue this, I could hire an attorney, 294 00:16:32.480 --> 00:16:37.120 but they are there to defend the Ohio government. I said, wrong, 295 00:16:37.399 --> 00:16:38.600 let me talk to your boss. 296 00:16:39.039 --> 00:16:39.559 Took three. 297 00:16:40.440 --> 00:16:42.960 Finally, the third person I talked to agreed with me. 298 00:16:43.000 --> 00:16:46.600 I said, it's not your job. The Ohio Attorney General's 299 00:16:46.639 --> 00:16:49.480 Office is the top law enforcement office, and your job 300 00:16:49.519 --> 00:16:52.720 is to protect Ohioans from government broad waste and abuse. 301 00:16:53.360 --> 00:16:54.559 Yes, that's correct, I said. 302 00:16:54.679 --> 00:16:56.960 You need to do some training in your office, and 303 00:16:57.000 --> 00:16:58.679 you need to explain to me why you're not going 304 00:16:58.720 --> 00:17:02.519 after this. Well, the legislation hasn't passed yet. I said, 305 00:17:02.519 --> 00:17:05.960 it doesn't matter if the legislation hasn't passed yet. If 306 00:17:06.000 --> 00:17:08.519 six hundred million dollars a tax payer money is going 307 00:17:08.559 --> 00:17:10.680 to a private business, you guys need to pursue this 308 00:17:10.839 --> 00:17:14.799 or tell me why, or tell me that it's constitutional. Anyways, 309 00:17:14.880 --> 00:17:18.000 here's my recommendation. I think we help our case by 310 00:17:18.319 --> 00:17:21.920 listeners light up that fraud waste and abuse hotline, so 311 00:17:21.960 --> 00:17:25.279 that perhaps the attorneys at dan Law can find that 312 00:17:25.519 --> 00:17:28.119 and say, look, it was right here that there was 313 00:17:28.319 --> 00:17:32.599 multiple cases reported, hundreds of cases of fraud, waste and 314 00:17:32.640 --> 00:17:36.119 abuse reported to the Attorney General's office, and you decided 315 00:17:36.119 --> 00:17:40.079 that you didn't want to pursue this and strengthened the case, 316 00:17:40.279 --> 00:17:42.319 and I wanted to get your opinion on it as 317 00:17:42.319 --> 00:17:42.960 an attorney. 318 00:17:42.960 --> 00:17:44.640 Would that or would that not help the case? 319 00:17:45.279 --> 00:17:50.119 H Honestly, I don't know that it necessarily would. Just 320 00:17:50.160 --> 00:17:52.559 because the phone's light up, given a campaign to light 321 00:17:52.640 --> 00:17:55.119 the phones up, it doesn't mean anything. I mean I 322 00:17:55.119 --> 00:17:57.319 can call and make a complaint. That doesn't mean it's 323 00:17:57.400 --> 00:18:01.079 legally justifiable or valid. Your points are well taken, but 324 00:18:01.160 --> 00:18:03.480 in terms of evidence, in their case, they're making a 325 00:18:03.559 --> 00:18:06.720 constitutional argument that this is a taking of private property 326 00:18:06.759 --> 00:18:09.960 for the purpose of giving it to a private individual, 327 00:18:10.000 --> 00:18:14.039 which is for strict which is unconstitutional. So that has 328 00:18:14.119 --> 00:18:17.160 nothing to do with I think independent calls for fraud 329 00:18:17.160 --> 00:18:20.240 wasting abuse into the hot while, but I don't think 330 00:18:20.279 --> 00:18:20.799 it hurts. 331 00:18:22.480 --> 00:18:25.240 And I was telling them that I didn't believe it 332 00:18:25.279 --> 00:18:28.759 was constitutional, and they did not tell me. They weren't 333 00:18:28.759 --> 00:18:30.839 able to come back and say no. But it's this section, 334 00:18:31.240 --> 00:18:34.480 article whatever on the Ohio Constitution allows us. They never 335 00:18:34.519 --> 00:18:35.119 came back, No. 336 00:18:35.519 --> 00:18:40.960 They couldn't. The Age told the wine to Vito the provision, 337 00:18:41.440 --> 00:18:43.480 arguing that it was bad policy, but they didn't do 338 00:18:43.480 --> 00:18:46.720 a breakdown, a legal breakdown of whether it was lawful 339 00:18:46.839 --> 00:18:49.759 or unlawful. And I think the silence on that specific 340 00:18:49.880 --> 00:18:53.680 legal analysis speaks volumes. I think it suggests very strongly 341 00:18:53.720 --> 00:18:57.599 that the Attorney General's office believed it is unlawful, unconstitutional 342 00:18:57.680 --> 00:19:02.720 taking a private property. So yeah, it's yeah, yeah, but 343 00:19:02.839 --> 00:19:05.519 it's easy, a delicate, you know, obviously a delegate position. 344 00:19:05.640 --> 00:19:07.880 I mean, he's got to go after his boss and 345 00:19:07.960 --> 00:19:12.119 file a lawsuit against his boss because of the unconstitutional 346 00:19:12.200 --> 00:19:15.200 nature of that six hundred million dollars. So he tried 347 00:19:15.240 --> 00:19:17.400 to get into veto. It didn't happen. So either he 348 00:19:17.480 --> 00:19:19.640 claims there's a conflict of interest and hands it off 349 00:19:19.680 --> 00:19:24.599 to somebody else to do it, or the Dan Law 350 00:19:24.640 --> 00:19:27.920 firm moves forward with its private action and ultimately I 351 00:19:27.960 --> 00:19:31.480 think will succeed. So I said it's a summary judgment 352 00:19:31.519 --> 00:19:33.839 issue because it's simply a question of law. There are 353 00:19:33.839 --> 00:19:38.079 no disputed facts going on here, nothing that discovery needs 354 00:19:38.119 --> 00:19:41.079 to reveal. There's the line in the budget that's where 355 00:19:41.119 --> 00:19:43.680 it says we're giving six hundred million dollars. That's where 356 00:19:43.680 --> 00:19:46.519 it shows where the money's coming from the Unclaimed Property fund. 357 00:19:46.839 --> 00:19:50.440 It's all right there, black and white. No facts at issue, 358 00:19:50.680 --> 00:19:53.480 just a simple question of law. Is it lawful to 359 00:19:53.519 --> 00:19:56.400 do that? Appreciate it? Jay, I have no problem with 360 00:19:56.440 --> 00:19:59.640 people lighting the phones up like that. It's five twenty eight. 361 00:20:00.160 --> 00:20:01.680 More local stories coming up of them. We got the 362 00:20:01.680 --> 00:20:02.359 stack is stupid. 363 00:20:02.440 --> 00:20:05.519 I'll be right back fifty five KRGV talk station. 364 00:20:05.960 --> 00:20:09.559 Five point thirty two and a very happy Thursday too, 365 00:20:09.680 --> 00:20:13.039 called Friday.

It's just like eyes wide shut. Yeah, 587 00:32:34.839 --> 00:32:37.640 you know, it's a secret society of the rich and powerful, 588 00:32:38.160 --> 00:32:40.880 and there is no way that they would be able 589 00:32:40.920 --> 00:32:41.759 to release it. 590 00:32:41.960 --> 00:32:45.000 Yeah, that's was my comment. Of course, you got it 591 00:32:45.039 --> 00:32:47.880 when I mentioned how come the Democrats aren't screaming because 592 00:32:48.279 --> 00:32:51.319 this is the Trump administration and they previously said they 593 00:32:51.400 --> 00:32:53.960 had this information. Now they're saying, no, it doesn't exist 594 00:32:54.000 --> 00:32:56.200 at all. That seems to be right for an attack 595 00:32:56.240 --> 00:32:58.319 by the Democrats, right, Oh my god. The Trump a 596 00:32:58.319 --> 00:33:02.599 minister said, it's Trump, he's in there. Let's see the documents. Nope, nothing. 597 00:33:04.519 --> 00:33:05.240 Yeah. 598 00:33:05.279 --> 00:33:08.640 And I've been thinking this for a while, like maybe 599 00:33:08.680 --> 00:33:13.000 the Nicole Kitman Tom Cruise movie was not Maybe it 600 00:33:13.039 --> 00:33:13.640 wasn't fiction. 601 00:33:14.359 --> 00:33:17.960 That's possible. Oh that's hilarious, Kevin. And it allows me 602 00:33:18.000 --> 00:33:20.160 to it reminds me of a real life story along 603 00:33:20.200 --> 00:33:21.960 the same lines that the law firm I worked with 604 00:33:22.000 --> 00:33:25.519 in Chicago, about one hundred lawyers. One of the idiots 605 00:33:25.559 --> 00:33:27.319 in the law firm decided he was going to have 606 00:33:27.319 --> 00:33:30.160 an affair with the niece who was an intern niece 607 00:33:30.200 --> 00:33:34.599 of one of the senior partners, and so word got 608 00:33:34.680 --> 00:33:37.559 around about that, and oddly enough, this guy was not 609 00:33:37.720 --> 00:33:41.000 real good about hiding his passwords so he could get 610 00:33:41.000 --> 00:33:44.559 into his voicemail. You know, four digit passwords you log in, 611 00:33:44.599 --> 00:33:48.799 you get your voicemail messages, well, rather salacious exchanges between 612 00:33:48.799 --> 00:33:51.480 this young intern and this attorney, back and forth, back 613 00:33:51.480 --> 00:33:54.599 and forth. And as it turns out, I guess this 614 00:33:54.680 --> 00:33:57.400 came to everyone's attention to the partnership. He was terminated 615 00:33:57.440 --> 00:34:01.200 because of his stupidity to talk about Portia life choices. 616 00:34:01.839 --> 00:34:03.599 But then it also got out that a lot of 617 00:34:03.680 --> 00:34:07.319 lawyers were listening into these voicemail messages. And at one 618 00:34:07.359 --> 00:34:09.480 point it was suggested that people who were doing that 619 00:34:09.679 --> 00:34:14.639 heads were going to roll. Well that went nowhere. No 620 00:34:14.679 --> 00:34:17.519 one got their position lost or was fired for tapping 621 00:34:17.519 --> 00:34:20.920 into the voicemail Why because apparently every lawyer in the 622 00:34:21.079 --> 00:34:26.360 entire firm had his past code and was listening in 623 00:34:26.920 --> 00:34:30.800 to his voicemail messages. So there's only so much you 624 00:34:30.840 --> 00:34:32.559 can do. You don't want to shut the entire firm 625 00:34:32.639 --> 00:34:36.679 down in the name of enforcing the rules. Back to 626 00:34:36.760 --> 00:34:39.079 this dec of Stuvid, we've got Italian belly dancer of 627 00:34:39.159 --> 00:34:43.239 Egyptian descent arrested in her native country Egypt for using 628 00:34:43.519 --> 00:34:49.400 seductive techniques. That's in quotes. So Helia Terrek Hassani gag 629 00:34:49.400 --> 00:34:52.360 and naturalized Italian citizen born in Egypt does hold in 630 00:34:52.360 --> 00:34:55.480 an Egyptian citizenship, taken into police custody at the Cairo 631 00:34:55.599 --> 00:34:59.280 International Airport at the end of June, accused of corrupting 632 00:34:59.519 --> 00:35:05.239 public morals with her provocative dancing. She dances under the 633 00:35:05.320 --> 00:35:09.599 name Linda Martine. Case against her triggered by videos on 634 00:35:09.639 --> 00:35:13.880 her Instagram account in which she writhes around in revealing 635 00:35:14.039 --> 00:35:17.079 clothing and describes herself as quote more than you can 636 00:35:17.159 --> 00:35:21.960 handle close quote. According to the investigator, she appeared in 637 00:35:22.079 --> 00:35:26.199 quote indecent clothing, deliberately exposing sensitive areas of the body, 638 00:35:26.199 --> 00:35:31.400 and blatant violation of social values close quotes. Prosecutors and 639 00:35:31.480 --> 00:35:34.920 Kiro claimed that she, in their words, used seductive techniques 640 00:35:35.880 --> 00:35:42.719 and provocative dances to incite vice during arrest, found with 641 00:35:42.760 --> 00:35:46.639 what they described as a substantial amount of money.

Reportedly moved back 644 00:35:52.079 --> 00:35:55.159 to Egypt several years ago, where she built a successful career, 645 00:35:55.239 --> 00:35:59.559 previously married to an Italian. It's pointed out in recent 646 00:35:59.639 --> 00:36:02.599 years Egypt is clamped down on activities that they deem 647 00:36:02.679 --> 00:36:07.679 morally questionable. Five belly dancers have been jailed under President 648 00:36:07.719 --> 00:36:11.239 Abdel f ALCSI on charges similar to those against this 649 00:36:11.960 --> 00:36:17.679 a gag woman. Can you imagine living in a world 650 00:36:17.719 --> 00:36:22.599 where the governing authorities are the determiners and moral arbiters 651 00:36:22.639 --> 00:36:26.239 of all things that you do? This is like Sharia law, 652 00:36:26.400 --> 00:36:29.719 isn't it? And I thought that was Isn't that the 653 00:36:29.719 --> 00:36:33.320 point of belly dancing? To writhe around and scantly clad 654 00:36:33.360 --> 00:36:35.880 clothes and you know, be seductive. I mean, that's like 655 00:36:35.920 --> 00:36:38.480 the It seems to me the very definition of belly 656 00:36:38.559 --> 00:36:42.400 dancing and what regional the world did belly dancing come from? 657 00:36:42.679 --> 00:36:46.320 Oh that's right, Okay, Well it is a stack is stupid? 658 00:36:46.320 --> 00:36:47.840 What more can I say?

British 697 00:38:52.679 --> 00:38:55.920 Area passenger forced to sit in an airplane for seven 698 00:38:56.039 --> 00:39:00.519 hours on the ground lightning strike, triggers of fires, suppression 699 00:39:00.519 --> 00:39:04.000 fom at Spirit Airlines hangar and a battery fire passenger 700 00:39:04.039 --> 00:39:06.559 head one of the lithium ion batteries, I guess, and 701 00:39:06.599 --> 00:39:08.840 it forced a Delta flight to make an emergency landing. 702 00:39:08.840 --> 00:39:11.440 Plus we'll get update on hub delays. I always enjoy 703 00:39:11.480 --> 00:39:13.679 hearing from you. Five one, three, seven, four, nine fifty 704 00:39:13.760 --> 00:39:15.880 five hundred, eight hundred and eighty two to three taco 705 00:39:15.960 --> 00:39:18.280 pound five fifty on AT and T funds and remember 706 00:39:18.320 --> 00:39:20.519 fifty five cars dot com when you can't listen live 707 00:39:20.679 --> 00:39:25.440 Jack Adveton, always brilliant. Judgemapolitano. Interesting legal subject matter with 708 00:39:25.519 --> 00:39:28.159 him kind of irked me a little bit, not with 709 00:39:28.239 --> 00:39:31.119 what the judge concluded, but it was a subject matter 710 00:39:31.119 --> 00:39:34.199 that I really wasn't very familiar with. Kidnapping people. Uh, 711 00:39:34.400 --> 00:39:37.480 Mark Dan the Dan Law Firm a lawsuit that he 712 00:39:37.760 --> 00:39:40.599 and uh has filed on behalf of some people who 713 00:39:40.679 --> 00:39:43.880 have an interest in the unclaimed property funds. He says 714 00:39:43.920 --> 00:39:46.199 the six hundred million dollars in the Ohio budget is 715 00:39:46.760 --> 00:39:51.039 unconstitutional because it comes from other people's money, and it 716 00:39:51.119 --> 00:39:53.960 is a long standing legal principle that the government can't 717 00:39:54.000 --> 00:39:56.800 take private funds or property as the case may be 718 00:39:57.000 --> 00:40:00.159 and give it to other private individuals, which is exact 719 00:40:00.280 --> 00:40:03.639 what's happened here. So I think Mark's got a really 720 00:40:03.679 --> 00:40:06.599 good case on the merits of the law, and of 721 00:40:06.599 --> 00:40:10.599 course it is really a legal issue, period, end of story. 722 00:40:10.760 --> 00:40:13.920 Sometimes there are factual questions that exist. No, he said, 723 00:40:14.000 --> 00:40:15.920 she said, kind of thing, and you got to get 724 00:40:15.960 --> 00:40:18.039 to the bottom of it through discovery, so you can 725 00:40:18.079 --> 00:40:20.679 then move forward with the with the case. In this 726 00:40:20.719 --> 00:40:24.119 particular matter, there is nothing in dispute there. It is 727 00:40:24.239 --> 00:40:26.280 is a line item in the budget six hundred million dollars. 728 00:40:26.360 --> 00:40:28.760 They identify the funding source, which is private funds and 729 00:40:28.800 --> 00:40:33.639 the unclaim unclaim fund pile of money of four point 730 00:40:33.679 --> 00:40:36.440 eight billion dollars. So we know where it's coming from 731 00:40:36.440 --> 00:40:38.360 and we know it's going to the Cleveland Browns project. 732 00:40:38.440 --> 00:40:42.119 So there's your facts summary judgment. Here's what the law says. 733 00:40:42.880 --> 00:40:45.880 Grant me the relief I'm seeking. So listen to the discussion. 734 00:40:46.079 --> 00:40:50.679 I enjoyed talking with Mark about that. Americans for Prosperity 735 00:40:50.679 --> 00:40:53.960 on overriding Dewines vetos. It's all right there at fifty 736 00:40:53.960 --> 00:40:57.679 five KRC dot com. Do you see the other day 737 00:40:58.599 --> 00:41:02.400 Biden's doctor asserted his Fifth Amendment right to be free 738 00:41:02.400 --> 00:41:06.119 of self incrimination, Doctor Kevin O'Connor. Now he may recall 739 00:41:07.840 --> 00:41:13.639 the background on this, Doctor Kevin O'Connor issued a document 740 00:41:14.079 --> 00:41:16.920 and the document is actually issued by the Biden White House. 741 00:41:17.320 --> 00:41:20.239 This is four months before the debate performance that caused 742 00:41:20.280 --> 00:41:24.800 Biden to drop out of the campaign. Obviously, cognitive decline 743 00:41:25.079 --> 00:41:28.079 we all realized that over the years, but that was 744 00:41:28.079 --> 00:41:30.960 obviously the nail on the coffin. But doctor O'Connor wrote 745 00:41:31.199 --> 00:41:33.559 again four months prior to the debate, as requested by 746 00:41:33.559 --> 00:41:36.800 the patient, Joe Biden. The following is the summary of 747 00:41:36.840 --> 00:41:38.800 the current health status of President Joseph R. Biden. The 748 00:41:38.840 --> 00:41:41.719 President feels well and this year's physical identified no new concern. 749 00:41:41.800 --> 00:41:43.960 He continues to be fit for duty and fully executes 750 00:41:43.960 --> 00:41:47.519 all of his responsibilities without any exemptions or accommodations. I 751 00:41:47.639 --> 00:41:52.360 remember it's an important point to note the patient instructed 752 00:41:52.480 --> 00:41:56.079 the doctor to let us know by virtue of this 753 00:41:56.960 --> 00:42:03.599 report what his health status was. Okay, no, I understand, Doc. 754 00:42:03.679 --> 00:42:07.679 You have the patient to physician patient privilege, and you're 755 00:42:07.719 --> 00:42:09.440 not allowed to go out into the world and tell 756 00:42:09.480 --> 00:42:11.599 the world what my health conditions are all about. But 757 00:42:11.679 --> 00:42:14.480 I'm allowed to wave that, So please issue the report 758 00:42:14.519 --> 00:42:19.800 to the world tell the world about it. In his report, 759 00:42:20.119 --> 00:42:24.559 he covered himself. He said, as in previous years, I've 760 00:42:24.559 --> 00:42:27.039 conducted a comprehensive review of the President Biden's medical history 761 00:42:27.119 --> 00:42:31.800 performed a detailed physical examination. This physical has again included 762 00:42:31.880 --> 00:42:36.400 specialty consultation with several of our presidential specialty consultants from 763 00:42:36.440 --> 00:42:42.679 Walter Ee National Military Medical Center. Specialties included optometry, dentistry, orthopedics, 764 00:42:44.480 --> 00:42:50.079 both ankle and spine, physical therapy, neurology, sleep medicine, cardiology, radiology, dermatology. 765 00:42:50.480 --> 00:42:54.559 Each of these specialists have independently reviewed the chart, examined 766 00:42:54.599 --> 00:42:58.679 the president, and concur with my findings and recommendations. How 767 00:42:58.679 --> 00:43:00.800 about that boy, there's a big room full of doctors 768 00:43:00.840 --> 00:43:03.800 on that one, wasn't there? Instead, have also solicited my 769 00:43:03.800 --> 00:43:06.800 feedback from my respected colleagues, the other physicians in the 770 00:43:06.800 --> 00:43:09.119 White House Medical Unit who see the patient every day. 771 00:43:09.840 --> 00:43:12.440 Each of these doctors has reviewed my report for accuracy. 772 00:43:12.519 --> 00:43:15.599 My conclusions have been further informed through discussions with several 773 00:43:15.639 --> 00:43:19.519 of my fellow professors from George Washington University School of 774 00:43:19.559 --> 00:43:22.400 Medicine and Health Sciences. Wow, who didn't he talk to 775 00:43:22.800 --> 00:43:25.599 and get confirmation? Doesn't it seem odd? Do you think 776 00:43:25.599 --> 00:43:27.519 your physician would go out into the world and solicit 777 00:43:27.559 --> 00:43:30.760 second opinions on his conclusions or her conclusions about your 778 00:43:30.800 --> 00:43:36.320 medical health? Generally speaking, after a physical an, he concluded 779 00:43:36.360 --> 00:43:39.679 that President Biden is healthy, active, robust, eighty one year 780 00:43:39.719 --> 00:43:42.199 old man who remains fit to successfully execute the duties 781 00:43:42.239 --> 00:43:45.519 of presidency to include those as chief executive, head of State, 782 00:43:45.559 --> 00:43:48.639 and commander in chief. Wow, okay, he is in great shape. 783 00:43:49.679 --> 00:43:53.000 Do you realize that this doctor's report was three weeks 784 00:43:53.119 --> 00:43:58.400 after after the special counsel of the Biden Justice Department 785 00:43:58.440 --> 00:44:03.760 assessed that Biden was too forgetful to prosecute. This came 786 00:44:03.840 --> 00:44:08.760 after that. Yes, we have all the elements of the 787 00:44:08.840 --> 00:44:12.840 crime right here. President Biden violated the law, but it's 788 00:44:12.880 --> 00:44:15.119 pointless for us to drag him through the legal process 789 00:44:15.440 --> 00:44:17.639 because the jury would look at him and feel sorry 790 00:44:17.639 --> 00:44:20.159 for him because he can't answer any damn questions because 791 00:44:20.199 --> 00:44:24.559 his memories failed. Three weeks later, this report on clean 792 00:44:24.599 --> 00:44:30.039 health comes out, so t UPD. Behind the door an 793 00:44:30.280 --> 00:44:34.239 interview with the doctor Kevin O'Connor, closed door interview with 794 00:44:34.239 --> 00:44:37.119 the White House Oversight Committee, who's looking into the cognitive 795 00:44:37.119 --> 00:44:39.159 decline of Joe Biden and trying to figure out who 796 00:44:39.159 --> 00:44:41.559 was actually the puppet master behind the strings because Biden 797 00:44:42.480 --> 00:44:45.280 wasn't firing on all cylinders? Who worked the auto pen? 798 00:44:45.360 --> 00:44:48.440 Did Joe Biden give specific authorization for all those executive 799 00:44:48.519 --> 00:44:51.440 orders to be signed? Was he even aware of them? 800 00:44:52.119 --> 00:44:55.239 That's what they're investigating doctor o'conna a critical element of that. 801 00:44:58.039 --> 00:45:04.840 But he asserted his Fifth Amendment to multiple questions about 802 00:45:04.840 --> 00:45:10.360 his time with Joe Biden, which this hour long, hours 803 00:45:10.400 --> 00:45:12.079 long deposition was supposed to go a lot longer than 804 00:45:12.079 --> 00:45:15.519 it did. So obviously, when he's asserting his Fifth Amendment rights, 805 00:45:15.920 --> 00:45:18.119 you're not going to get anywhere, and so you ended early. 806 00:45:22.320 --> 00:45:29.639 Here's what was said about that, James Comer. I'm going 807 00:45:29.679 --> 00:45:32.719 to read the first two questions that were asked. Were 808 00:45:33.000 --> 00:45:40.440 you ever told to lie about the president's health? Let 809 00:45:40.440 --> 00:45:43.440 me read that again. Were you ever told to lie 810 00:45:43.639 --> 00:45:47.039 about the president's health? Doctor? And he asserted his Fifth 811 00:45:47.039 --> 00:45:51.480 Amendment right on that one. Now, as doctors later said that, 812 00:45:51.519 --> 00:45:53.639 we want to emphasize that asserting the Fifth Amendment privilege 813 00:45:53.639 --> 00:45:55.800 does not imply the doctor O'Connor has committed any crime. 814 00:45:56.119 --> 00:45:58.199 A fact to the contrary, as our Supreme Court has 815 00:45:58.239 --> 00:46:01.159 emphasized one of the Fifth Amendments basic functions to protect 816 00:46:01.199 --> 00:46:05.039 innocent men who otherwise might be ensnared by ambiguous circumstances, 817 00:46:06.400 --> 00:46:12.480 and they also asserted the doctor patient privilege. This committee's 818 00:46:12.519 --> 00:46:14.599 indicated the doctor O'Connor and his attorney said and does 819 00:46:14.599 --> 00:46:16.280 not intend to honor one of the most well known 820 00:46:16.280 --> 00:46:21.199 privileges in our law, the physician patient privilege. The committee 821 00:46:21.239 --> 00:46:23.159 is indicated that it will demand the doctor acc reveal, 822 00:46:23.199 --> 00:46:27.039 without any limitations, confidential information regarding his medical examination, treatment, 823 00:46:27.079 --> 00:46:30.119 and care. President Biden, that's the attorney's statement on behalf 824 00:46:30.159 --> 00:46:32.960 of the doctor. Try to justify the assertion of the 825 00:46:33.039 --> 00:46:37.119 Fifth Amendment. All right, But remember now Biden waived his 826 00:46:37.320 --> 00:46:41.199 fifth or his attorney client as attorney or his physician 827 00:46:41.280 --> 00:46:46.639 client patient. Rather get it out, Thomas waived his physician 828 00:46:46.719 --> 00:46:50.760 payment patient rights to privacy when he told the doctor 829 00:46:50.800 --> 00:46:55.599 to release the statement about his medical status. So I 830 00:46:55.639 --> 00:46:59.039 would argue counter that. But more fundamentally, were you ever 831 00:46:59.199 --> 00:47:02.599 told to about the president's health? That is not a 832 00:47:02.639 --> 00:47:04.800 statement that relates to the president's health and simply a 833 00:47:04.880 --> 00:47:13.280 question whether someone told him to lie about it? Huh. 834 00:47:13.639 --> 00:47:15.960 So if you leave that question just floating right there, 835 00:47:18.480 --> 00:47:22.880 does that justify a Fifth Amendment assertion based on the 836 00:47:22.920 --> 00:47:27.960 physician client or physician patient privilege? I would say, hell no, 837 00:47:28.079 --> 00:47:31.920 it doesn't. It's a simple question, did anybody tell you 838 00:47:31.960 --> 00:47:36.000 to lie? Doctor? It's a yessweror no question, of course, 839 00:47:36.719 --> 00:47:38.880 if the answer is yes, the follow up questions, well, 840 00:47:38.880 --> 00:47:41.440 who told you to lie? And you might give in 841 00:47:41.599 --> 00:47:45.400 more subtle nuances, For example, the second question he asserted 842 00:47:45.440 --> 00:47:47.639 the fifth on did you ever believe President Biden was 843 00:47:47.760 --> 00:47:51.000 unfit to execute his duty? Now that bears directly on 844 00:47:51.039 --> 00:47:53.880 Biden's health, But to that, I would go back to 845 00:47:53.920 --> 00:47:59.360 the point that Biden released the medical report, and it 846 00:47:59.400 --> 00:48:02.119 seems to me that the scope of the questions because 847 00:48:02.159 --> 00:48:05.880 he waived his physician patient privilege in releasing the report, 848 00:48:06.079 --> 00:48:07.719 it seems to me you wouldn't be limited by the 849 00:48:07.800 --> 00:48:09.920 nature of that report since it does deal with the 850 00:48:09.960 --> 00:48:13.920 president's overall health. Generally speaking, what test did you perform? Doctor? 851 00:48:14.239 --> 00:48:16.880 Look at all these people that you talk to about 852 00:48:16.920 --> 00:48:19.400 this report. Look at you put even put them in 853 00:48:19.480 --> 00:48:21.960 the report that you talked with, all these doctors, What 854 00:48:22.039 --> 00:48:25.159 did you talk about with them? And maybe the committee 855 00:48:25.199 --> 00:48:27.719 might want to well notice up a few depositions of 856 00:48:27.760 --> 00:48:33.320 all these other physicians that allegedly examine Biden or at 857 00:48:33.400 --> 00:48:39.360 least discussed Biden's condition with his physician.

And when you once you understand that, it 910 00:51:22.360 --> 00:51:24.480 makes it a lot easier because they're not going to 911 00:51:24.519 --> 00:51:27.800 go ahead and investigate their own people, period. They don't 912 00:51:27.800 --> 00:51:28.360 want to do that. 913 00:51:29.559 --> 00:51:32.920 I think you're right. I mean that what stirs the 914 00:51:32.920 --> 00:51:35.719 pot of controversy. I mean, you know, let's say BONDI 915 00:51:35.920 --> 00:51:39.320 was actually dead on right, that there really was nothing 916 00:51:39.519 --> 00:51:43.880 there at all except some porn that Epstein downloaded. The 917 00:51:43.920 --> 00:51:47.679 build up to that statement, and that release was seemingly 918 00:51:47.719 --> 00:51:50.840 in the opposite direction based upon all the statements previously made, 919 00:51:50.840 --> 00:51:54.559 based upon the individual had been previously identified as being 920 00:51:54.559 --> 00:51:57.400 involved with Epstein and the young ladies that surrounded him. 921 00:51:57.599 --> 00:52:00.199 They've got a lot of hard information out there which 922 00:52:00.440 --> 00:52:03.719 suggests that well, since this kind of thing was going 923 00:52:03.760 --> 00:52:06.079 on over years, and he was so well connected with 924 00:52:06.199 --> 00:52:09.480 so many famous people. There's got to be something back there. 925 00:52:09.519 --> 00:52:12.159 But no, no, nothing here, nothing to see, no list, 926 00:52:12.559 --> 00:52:15.320 And of course that makes us think that hmm, Democrats 927 00:52:15.360 --> 00:52:19.719 aren't screaming and complaining about this, and Republicans aren't screaming 928 00:52:19.719 --> 00:52:22.039 and complaining about this. The only parton except for Trump, 929 00:52:22.079 --> 00:52:23.719 who was complaining about the fact that he got a 930 00:52:23.840 --> 00:52:27.039 question answer asked about it. I thought his reaction was 931 00:52:27.079 --> 00:52:29.760 a little kind of strange and crazy, which of course 932 00:52:29.840 --> 00:52:32.320 means that people are out there suggesting it. Well, Donald 933 00:52:32.360 --> 00:52:34.719 Trump's in the mix on all these documents, and I 934 00:52:34.760 --> 00:52:37.039 know people want to draw that conclusion. They can, but 935 00:52:37.039 --> 00:52:39.599 we're left to make up our own conclusions because it 936 00:52:39.599 --> 00:52:41.199 looks so suspicious. 937 00:52:41.880 --> 00:52:45.559 Why would the Epstein gentleman meet with the CIA director 938 00:52:45.639 --> 00:52:46.800 five to six times? 939 00:52:47.599 --> 00:52:50.920 No, there's a question. Yeah, I wasn't even aware that 940 00:52:50.920 --> 00:52:51.679 that had happened. 941 00:52:51.880 --> 00:52:55.159 Oh yes. Also the sale that he was on in 942 00:52:55.239 --> 00:52:58.519 the Holy Facility in New York, he wasn't on the bottom. 943 00:52:58.559 --> 00:53:01.239 He was on the very topic. Just three tiered system. 944 00:53:01.639 --> 00:53:05.119 If you check Getway Gateway Pundit, he has a complete 945 00:53:05.199 --> 00:53:08.519 layout of everything where he was camera locations and everything. 946 00:53:08.960 --> 00:53:09.480 They lie. 947 00:53:10.679 --> 00:53:12.800 He wasn't on the bottom before he was on the third. 948 00:53:13.440 --> 00:53:16.239 If you check Gateway Pundit, it's got a complete layouts 949 00:53:16.239 --> 00:53:16.960 of everything. 950 00:53:17.039 --> 00:53:19.880 Okay, Well, I don't know that that has any bearing 951 00:53:20.039 --> 00:53:22.320 on the fact that they didn't check up on him. 952 00:53:22.360 --> 00:53:24.679 They weren't doing the suicide checks that they were supposed 953 00:53:24.679 --> 00:53:27.519 to do. The cameras were broken in the broken in 954 00:53:27.559 --> 00:53:30.320 the cell block that he was on. Uh, And I 955 00:53:30.360 --> 00:53:32.960 know that they properly address or at least seemed adequately 956 00:53:32.960 --> 00:53:37.400 addressed the missing one minute, I guess. Bondi pointed out that, well, 957 00:53:37.400 --> 00:53:40.199 if you look at any videotapes from any of those cameras, 958 00:53:40.239 --> 00:53:43.880 it's the same thing. Every night. The tape goes on 959 00:53:43.920 --> 00:53:46.119 a loop. She said, it's old equipment, and at that 960 00:53:46.239 --> 00:53:48.880 point it just resets and starts over again. So that 961 00:53:48.960 --> 00:53:51.880 sounds like a justifiable account for the missing one minute. 962 00:53:52.039 --> 00:53:55.920 But it did remind me of the Watergate tapes. Anyhow, 963 00:53:56.360 --> 00:53:58.840 we'll probably never learn anything, Bobby. I think that's what 964 00:53:58.960 --> 00:54:04.559 comes down to left to our own swirling conspiracy conclusion 965 00:54:04.840 --> 00:54:07.480 six twenty five. Right now, local stories are phone calls. 966 00:54:07.519 --> 00:54:09.760 I'll take either before the phone calls, but we can 967 00:54:09.840 --> 00:54:12.199 go eat the direction. The first a word for Rhino Shield. 968 00:54:12.280 --> 00:54:14.960 I love that Rhino Shield product. It is so much 969 00:54:15.000 --> 00:54:19.440 better than paint. It's the ceramic coating guaranteed a transferable 970 00:54:19.480 --> 00:54:23.159 warranty on paint twenty five years. It will not flake, 971 00:54:23.199 --> 00:54:25.599 it will not fade, it will not ship. It's armor. 972 00:54:26.599 --> 00:54:29.280 It just covers up that and you know it reinforces 973 00:54:29.519 --> 00:54:33.920 your your the The exterior locks out moisture to flex 974 00:54:34.079 --> 00:54:38.480 UV rays, standing up to the very unpredictable weather in 975 00:54:38.519 --> 00:54:42.360 this in this region, ceramic coating goes beyond paint. It's 976 00:54:42.360 --> 00:54:45.519 a flexible, long lasting barrier that won't crack under pressure. 977 00:54:46.079 --> 00:54:49.079 Get that wonderful warranty to back it up so they 978 00:54:49.119 --> 00:54:52.320 can deal with your bubbling pain problems, flaking problems. No 979 00:54:52.480 --> 00:54:57.320 longer all worry, no longer worry about fading. And I 980 00:54:57.440 --> 00:54:59.039 like it so much. I got it for my daughter 981 00:54:59.079 --> 00:55:01.599 and our fiance. The bar has been painted with Rhino Shield. 982 00:55:01.639 --> 00:55:06.760 It went from disgusting, flaky, ugly yellow mustard kind of color. 983 00:55:06.800 --> 00:55:09.039 Don't know why the prior owners chose it, but whatever, 984 00:55:09.119 --> 00:55:11.960 maybe it was on sale. Now it's just beautiful mix. 985 00:55:12.000 --> 00:55:14.239 It mixes in with the landscape. It's such a moss 986 00:55:14.280 --> 00:55:17.880 screen kind of thing. But it looks fantastic. And that 987 00:55:18.000 --> 00:55:20.000 is one thing they are never gonna have to worry 988 00:55:20.039 --> 00:55:22.320 about anymore.

They have shown too 1005 00:56:11.519 --> 00:56:14.679 much concern. I don't think that can be their policy 1006 00:56:14.719 --> 00:56:18.840 any longer. They have got to immediately respond and respond 1007 00:56:19.079 --> 00:56:24.400 overwhelming with devastating forces, or this pattern will just continue 1008 00:56:24.440 --> 00:56:26.639 to play out. But for those that didn't see the 1009 00:56:26.679 --> 00:56:29.639 wisdom and taking out the number one state sponsor of 1010 00:56:29.719 --> 00:56:34.400 terror's nuclear facilities, the entire world, not just the region, 1011 00:56:34.679 --> 00:56:37.960 would be at risk, including the United States because their 1012 00:56:38.039 --> 00:56:41.840 missile capability keeps getting stronger and stronger.

I'm Heather Pasco on fifty 1054 00:58:46.639 --> 00:58:48.920 five KRC.

Among the topics, conversation gun violence in 1058 00:59:02.480 --> 00:59:06.320 the city takes over to local stories, although you can 1059 00:59:06.360 --> 00:59:08.639 feel free to call if you'd rather local stories, including 1060 00:59:08.679 --> 00:59:12.639 the meeting yesterday, city officials had a press conference about 1061 00:59:12.800 --> 00:59:16.280 city wide crime. Among the speakers since they manager Cheryl Long, 1062 00:59:18.039 --> 00:59:21.320 who'd announced that they are extending the red bike and 1063 00:59:22.119 --> 00:59:28.119 e scooter restrictions during the nighttime hours tomorrow and Saturday, 1064 00:59:28.199 --> 00:59:29.840 You're not gonna be able to ride your red bikes 1065 00:59:29.960 --> 00:59:33.199 or rent your red bikes your scooters starts at eight 1066 00:59:33.239 --> 00:59:36.719 pm least until six am. This after the well the 1067 00:59:36.840 --> 00:59:41.239 trial effort they did of the Independence Day weekend in 1068 00:59:41.320 --> 00:59:44.400 an effort to combat the recent rise in crime, taking 1069 00:59:44.440 --> 00:59:47.360 away transportation from some of the criminal element, although they 1070 00:59:47.400 --> 00:59:49.400 note that most of the people who use these bikes 1071 00:59:49.559 --> 00:59:56.599 and scooters don't commit crime. Well yeah, anyway, Long said, 1072 00:59:56.599 --> 00:59:58.679 there are concerns about bikes and scooters being used to 1073 00:59:58.719 --> 01:00:03.199 commit crimes to help perpetrators escape from police. She said yesterday, 1074 01:00:03.280 --> 01:00:05.840 they are being used to more effectively commit property crimes, 1075 01:00:06.039 --> 01:00:09.800 steal guns, and create quality of life issues. They themselves 1076 01:00:09.880 --> 01:00:12.280 are not the issue meeting the scooters and the bikes, 1077 01:00:12.360 --> 01:00:14.519 nor are the vast majority people who ride them safely, 1078 01:00:14.599 --> 01:00:17.800 but they become useful tool for criminals intent on causing harms. 1079 01:00:18.880 --> 01:00:22.880 So as far as Red bikes, you'll still be able 1080 01:00:22.920 --> 01:00:25.840 to rent them during the daytime hours and at night 1081 01:00:25.880 --> 01:00:28.159 as long as you're outside of the downtown and over 1082 01:00:28.199 --> 01:00:32.239 the Rhine areas. So if you venture into the urban 1083 01:00:32.360 --> 01:00:34.880 core with a bike during that time, you can return 1084 01:00:34.920 --> 01:00:36.400 the bike to a dock, but you just won't be 1085 01:00:36.440 --> 01:00:39.400 able to take one out. As far as East scooters, apparently, 1086 01:00:39.519 --> 01:00:42.039 the city's agreement with the operators of the East scooters 1087 01:00:42.079 --> 01:00:45.079 already allow them to restrict the time they're restricted five 1088 01:00:45.280 --> 01:00:47.760 or seven days a week and can't be run in 1089 01:00:47.800 --> 01:00:52.360 between eleven pm and six am. But this just adds 1090 01:00:52.519 --> 01:00:55.519 to the limitation on using them extending the hours a 1091 01:00:55.559 --> 01:00:59.480 little bit. I'll let you decide whether or not it works. 1092 01:00:59.559 --> 01:01:01.599 They're going to continued to evaluate it. I guess on 1093 01:01:01.639 --> 01:01:04.559 a week by week basis. Twenty five year old driver 1094 01:01:04.719 --> 01:01:07.039 under arrest on charges that she led to state trooper 1095 01:01:07.119 --> 01:01:09.000 or what was described as a very slow and short 1096 01:01:09.079 --> 01:01:13.559 pursuit State Highway Patrol, said Camaiel Wiley. A Mason booked 1097 01:01:13.559 --> 01:01:16.440 into the Warren County jail four am on Tuesday fleeing 1098 01:01:16.639 --> 01:01:20.159 and eluding as well as obstruction of official business charges scheduled. 1099 01:01:20.559 --> 01:01:24.880 I think Charity made her first court appearance anyway. Trooper 1100 01:01:25.000 --> 01:01:27.719 was clocking cars on I seventy one near kings Mills 1101 01:01:27.840 --> 01:01:32.000 Road courne at Sergeant Tyler s Ross, spokesperson for the 1102 01:01:32.079 --> 01:01:36.000 OSP she came zipping along eighty eight and A sixty 1103 01:01:36.079 --> 01:01:40.039 five in her twenty four Nissan Ultima twenty twenty miles 1104 01:01:40.079 --> 01:01:42.880 over the posted limit. After an initial stop, they trooper 1105 01:01:42.960 --> 01:01:45.000 moved the traffic stop off the highway over to a 1106 01:01:45.079 --> 01:01:47.679 BP gas station near the I seventy one kings Mill 1107 01:01:47.760 --> 01:01:51.000 Road in exchange. According to the Patrol release. During that 1108 01:01:51.079 --> 01:01:53.679 traffic stop, Wiley approached the trooper and stated that she 1109 01:01:53.800 --> 01:01:57.440 needed to use the restroom and was leaving. Trooper gave 1110 01:01:57.480 --> 01:01:59.679 several verbal commands of warnings, telling her that she was 1111 01:01:59.800 --> 01:02:01.800 not free to leave and that she would receive charges 1112 01:02:01.840 --> 01:02:04.800 of fleeing and eluding if she left. She disregarded those 1113 01:02:04.840 --> 01:02:09.679 commands fled the scene to her nearby residence. Once there, 1114 01:02:09.840 --> 01:02:13.280 she continued to refuse verbal commands and to be detained. 1115 01:02:13.320 --> 01:02:16.079 Attempt to walk away from the trooper into her residence, 1116 01:02:16.079 --> 01:02:18.119 and that's when she continued to be non compliant. Was 1117 01:02:18.159 --> 01:02:21.760 ultimately taken to custody. As far as the pursuit, the 1118 01:02:23.119 --> 01:02:28.639 OJ Simpson like pursuit about one mile along kings Mill 1119 01:02:28.760 --> 01:02:32.639 Road ending at Mason Grand Drive in Skyview Drive. In 1120 01:02:32.719 --> 01:02:35.679 addition to being criminally charged, she was also charged for speeding. 1121 01:02:36.199 --> 01:02:39.719 According to the Patrol, that incident remains under investigation. Let's 1122 01:02:39.719 --> 01:02:42.119 see what Mike's gott Hey, Mike, thanks for calling this morning. 1123 01:02:42.360 --> 01:02:48.119 Happy Thursday to you, Joe. You want to let Mike 1124 01:02:48.199 --> 01:02:53.000 on Mike there, you are welcome to the program. 1125 01:02:54.320 --> 01:02:57.079 I real quick about the scooter renolds and the bike rentals. 1126 01:02:58.320 --> 01:03:00.920 Last I checked those all had GPS trackers and you 1127 01:03:01.039 --> 01:03:03.239 have to have a credit card to use it, and probably. 1128 01:03:04.679 --> 01:03:07.199 Yep, it's not like I mean they know who he 1129 01:03:07.280 --> 01:03:07.719 uses them. 1130 01:03:07.840 --> 01:03:12.239 I mean, well that is true. I guess under some circumstances. 1131 01:03:12.880 --> 01:03:15.920 I guess you could steal one. Somebody else rents it 1132 01:03:15.960 --> 01:03:17.679 and you grab it and ride away out right off 1133 01:03:17.719 --> 01:03:20.119 on it. Just because it's been rented by one person 1134 01:03:20.239 --> 01:03:23.559 doesn't mean that was the perpetrator that the police were 1135 01:03:23.639 --> 01:03:26.360 after in fleeing the scene. I mean, there are there 1136 01:03:26.360 --> 01:03:28.840 are layers of complication to it, but yeah, there is 1137 01:03:28.840 --> 01:03:31.280 an evidentiary trail at least to some degree. Right there. 1138 01:03:32.920 --> 01:03:36.480 They said they're stealing guns and sound like what is 1139 01:03:36.599 --> 01:03:38.360 ride by somebody and grab the gun out of their hand. 1140 01:03:38.440 --> 01:03:41.320 I mean no, I actually that relates to another story 1141 01:03:41.360 --> 01:03:44.360 they talked about yesterday. Police Chiefdiji pointed out that the 1142 01:03:44.480 --> 01:03:48.000 number of automobile break ins has increased dramatically. She sided 1143 01:03:48.079 --> 01:03:50.360 like two hundred and fifty of them. So if you're 1144 01:03:50.360 --> 01:03:52.039 on a red bike, you're zipping by a car, you 1145 01:03:52.119 --> 01:03:55.559 smash the car window open, you take whatever properties in 1146 01:03:55.599 --> 01:03:57.679 the car you want, you ride away. So I guess 1147 01:03:57.719 --> 01:04:00.280 that happens from time to time. But her point was, Listen, 1148 01:04:00.480 --> 01:04:02.840 we had two hundred and fifty car break ins, thirty 1149 01:04:03.039 --> 01:04:05.480 four guns were stolen. That's what I was saying in 1150 01:04:05.559 --> 01:04:07.719 the earlier hour. Listen, if you got a gun in 1151 01:04:07.760 --> 01:04:10.679 your car, bring it indoors at night. Don't leave it 1152 01:04:10.719 --> 01:04:13.880 in the car, because these punks obviously know that people 1153 01:04:13.960 --> 01:04:16.760 store firearms in cars, and they probably do a pretty 1154 01:04:16.800 --> 01:04:18.840 thorough check looking at all the nooks and crannies in 1155 01:04:18.880 --> 01:04:22.920 places you might likely stow your firearm. So I remember 1156 01:04:22.960 --> 01:04:26.440 the old campaign lock your junk in your trunk. That's 1157 01:04:26.440 --> 01:04:29.000 an option I suppose, and I know there's other complicating 1158 01:04:29.039 --> 01:04:31.760 factors which make taking the firearm out of the vehicle 1159 01:04:32.360 --> 01:04:36.159 difficult in some circumstances. But in the final analysis, if 1160 01:04:36.199 --> 01:04:38.280 it's in there and you're in a neighborhood that's prone 1161 01:04:38.320 --> 01:04:40.920 to have break ins like that, your gun's going to 1162 01:04:40.960 --> 01:04:43.079 get stolen and then they're going to use it for crime, 1163 01:04:43.159 --> 01:04:46.159 which was Chief dgi's point. Six point thirty six. Come 1164 01:04:46.239 --> 01:04:48.880 up with six thirty seven USA insulation. It is a 1165 01:04:49.039 --> 01:04:52.159 phone call you need to make.

Good to hear from 1214 01:07:21.639 --> 01:07:24.199 you today, sir, Hey. 1215 01:07:24.079 --> 01:07:26.480 Good morning Bright. Just a thought on the guns get 1216 01:07:26.639 --> 01:07:30.039 thrown out of cars? How about ending gun free zones. 1217 01:07:30.239 --> 01:07:31.360 The reason people leave the. 1218 01:07:31.360 --> 01:07:33.840 Guns in the cars anyway is because they can't take 1219 01:07:33.880 --> 01:07:35.159 them into where they're going, where they. 1220 01:07:35.159 --> 01:07:37.639 Big work or all or whatever it is. 1221 01:07:37.760 --> 01:07:41.719 Well, I mentioned that earlier, Corey, and the complicating factor 1222 01:07:41.840 --> 01:07:44.320 that I came up with is, Okay, you've got your 1223 01:07:44.400 --> 01:07:46.800 firearm on you, and you're going getting ready to go 1224 01:07:46.920 --> 01:07:49.199 into one of the downtown restaurants and you're going to 1225 01:07:49.280 --> 01:07:51.760 be drinking. Now, you're not allowed to have a concealed 1226 01:07:51.800 --> 01:07:54.800 carry weapon while drinking in the state of Ohio. So 1227 01:07:55.039 --> 01:07:56.960 knowing you're going to be drinking, but of course not 1228 01:07:57.119 --> 01:07:59.440 so much that you'll be ov I when you come out, 1229 01:07:59.840 --> 01:08:02.239 you still can't do it. So you leave your gun 1230 01:08:02.280 --> 01:08:03.960 in your car while you go into the restaurant. You 1231 01:08:04.039 --> 01:08:06.280 come back only to find your car's been broken into 1232 01:08:06.400 --> 01:08:10.800 and your firearm has been stolen. So that's the one circumstance. Otherwise, 1233 01:08:10.880 --> 01:08:13.000 I think you're right. If a shop owner says no 1234 01:08:13.159 --> 01:08:16.880 gun's allowed, I'd be inclined to just keep my concealed 1235 01:08:16.960 --> 01:08:20.199 carry concealed and ignore that because I'd rather be able 1236 01:08:20.239 --> 01:08:23.159 to protect myself and my life and my family's life 1237 01:08:23.279 --> 01:08:26.319 by and violate that particular sign in the door. That's 1238 01:08:26.399 --> 01:08:28.600 not me giving you legal advice. It's just my take 1239 01:08:28.680 --> 01:08:31.039 on it. But it's. 1240 01:08:33.119 --> 01:08:36.239 If you carry into a i've posted no gun zone, 1241 01:08:36.640 --> 01:08:37.520 your call with it. 1242 01:08:38.119 --> 01:08:40.880 You lose your right to carry in the state of forever. 1243 01:08:41.199 --> 01:08:49.319 Yeah, I listen. I will sacrifice that right to save 1244 01:08:49.439 --> 01:08:53.199 the life of my wife, my children, myself. If that's 1245 01:08:53.239 --> 01:08:55.680 the price I got to pay, and I'm still alive 1246 01:08:55.920 --> 01:08:58.640 or she is still alive, then I'll pay that price. 1247 01:09:01.439 --> 01:09:04.119 I can always argue about it. I can claim it's unconstitutional, 1248 01:09:04.199 --> 01:09:06.159 I can make arguments in court, get a lawyer, blah 1249 01:09:06.159 --> 01:09:08.560 blah blah. Button the final analysis, you know. I mean, 1250 01:09:08.680 --> 01:09:11.520 it was my attitude when I lived in Chicago. I 1251 01:09:11.600 --> 01:09:13.960 lived in oak Park, Illinois. That's where our first house was, 1252 01:09:14.079 --> 01:09:15.640 and it was one of the first communities in the 1253 01:09:15.800 --> 01:09:18.119 entire country. If I recall the history correctly, to ban 1254 01:09:18.239 --> 01:09:20.760 the ownership of handguns period, end of story. I owned 1255 01:09:20.800 --> 01:09:25.119 one when we moved there, kept it within my home, 1256 01:09:25.279 --> 01:09:27.520 and my argument was because it's subjected you to a 1257 01:09:27.600 --> 01:09:31.079 fine of like ten thousand dollars or whatever civil penalty. 1258 01:09:31.079 --> 01:09:36.479 I can't remember the ramifications of it, but I always said, 1259 01:09:36.560 --> 01:09:39.319 like I said, now, listen, if someone kicks the door 1260 01:09:39.479 --> 01:09:42.680 in and is there to do a commit murder, grievous 1261 01:09:42.760 --> 01:09:45.159 bodily harm, or anything like that that would justify the 1262 01:09:45.279 --> 01:09:48.319 use of deadly force under any given circumstance, then I'll 1263 01:09:48.359 --> 01:09:52.119 take what comes to me afterwards. I'm not going to 1264 01:09:52.159 --> 01:09:54.760 give up my right to defend myself because I might 1265 01:09:54.920 --> 01:09:59.359 suffer some consequence. I'm in the right by defending myself. 1266 01:09:59.399 --> 01:10:01.600 I can make that argument we were going to die 1267 01:10:01.760 --> 01:10:05.560 had I not engaged and used deadly force reasonable as 1268 01:10:05.600 --> 01:10:08.520 standards applied to that. Yes, but you violated this ordinance 1269 01:10:08.560 --> 01:10:10.199 in oak Park that says you're not allowed to own 1270 01:10:10.239 --> 01:10:12.600 one of those. Fine.

I've got a whole bunch 1320 01:12:51.000 --> 01:12:53.039 of things to talk about with Jay, some a little 1321 01:12:53.079 --> 01:12:59.199 bit comical and others more serious, like learning about why 1322 01:12:59.279 --> 01:13:00.920 we don't have to take our shoes off anymore we 1323 01:13:01.000 --> 01:13:02.960 get onto an airplane was just announced the other day. 1324 01:13:03.520 --> 01:13:05.520 Here's part of the problem. Okay, you're convicted of a crime, 1325 01:13:05.560 --> 01:13:10.359 you're in lock up. You're an illegal immigrant. You have 1326 01:13:10.399 --> 01:13:13.520 an ICE detainer out for you. They're there to pick 1327 01:13:13.600 --> 01:13:17.279 you up because you violated the immigration laws. You're subject 1328 01:13:17.359 --> 01:13:21.199 to be deported because you're a criminal, a convicted criminal, 1329 01:13:22.159 --> 01:13:24.760 and the sanctuary cities do what they let them out 1330 01:13:24.840 --> 01:13:27.279 and do not alert ICE authorities that this guy is 1331 01:13:27.319 --> 01:13:28.800 going to be let out even though he's got a 1332 01:13:28.880 --> 01:13:33.720 detention filed against them. How many you know how many? 1333 01:13:34.359 --> 01:13:36.520 As I stare at an article that they just arrested 1334 01:13:36.600 --> 01:13:40.960 outside of a Saint Paul area, about a dozen illegal 1335 01:13:41.319 --> 01:13:47.840 alien sexual predators. One guy convicted a second degree sexual 1336 01:13:47.840 --> 01:13:50.439 ass sort of a child. One convicted second degree sexual 1337 01:13:50.439 --> 01:13:53.800 ass sort of a child. Convicted is soliciting a minor, 1338 01:13:53.920 --> 01:13:57.239 convicted the first degree sexual assault, convicted a ludelessivius act 1339 01:13:57.359 --> 01:14:00.319 with children under the age of fourteen, convicted the first 1340 01:14:00.319 --> 01:14:04.199 degree sexual abuse of a minor, third degree criminal sexual conduct, 1341 01:14:04.239 --> 01:14:07.920 fourth degree criminal sexual conduct. A convicted first degree criminal 1342 01:14:08.000 --> 01:14:10.960 sexual conduct. I'm just reading what these guys were convicted of, 1343 01:14:13.239 --> 01:14:17.079 all in the country, illegally, all in lock up, and 1344 01:14:17.239 --> 01:14:21.560 ICE had to go out and round them up. Twenty 1345 01:14:21.880 --> 01:14:25.960 five thousand criminal illegals back into the population thanks to 1346 01:14:26.039 --> 01:14:29.840 sanctuary city policies not alerting ICE when they know there's 1347 01:14:29.840 --> 01:14:36.920 a detainer there. The worst California, along with Illinois, Massachusetts, Connecticut, 1348 01:14:37.000 --> 01:14:41.640 and Virginia, also responsible for releasing thousands of criminal illegal 1349 01:14:41.680 --> 01:14:44.079 alien aliens back in the society, even though we could 1350 01:14:44.079 --> 01:14:45.760 have evicted them and kicked them out of the country 1351 01:14:45.800 --> 01:14:50.359 based upon their criminal status and their illegal status. And 1352 01:14:50.479 --> 01:14:55.680 you know, it is a well documented fact. I suppose 1353 01:14:55.760 --> 01:14:57.880 it's one thing to commit a property crime or to 1354 01:14:57.920 --> 01:14:59.920 steal something from a store, but when it comes to 1355 01:15:00.199 --> 01:15:05.319 molesting children, the recidivism rate is pretty damn high. I 1356 01:15:05.359 --> 01:15:07.560 guess it's once you go down that road. It's trying 1357 01:15:07.560 --> 01:15:10.119 to kick a heroin or fentanyl habit. You just don't 1358 01:15:10.199 --> 01:15:12.840 do it. You keep falling back off the wagon. Quit 1359 01:15:12.960 --> 01:15:17.600 touching children. Oh my god, I can't help myself. And 1360 01:15:17.720 --> 01:15:20.840 that's I mean, there's a large chunk of these folks 1361 01:15:21.680 --> 01:15:24.760 that fall into that category. I just mentioned the ones 1362 01:15:24.800 --> 01:15:36.800 from from a Minnesota Tim Waltz. Anyway, this cis dot 1363 01:15:36.920 --> 01:15:41.640 org report study total twenty two and eighty three criminal 1364 01:15:41.680 --> 01:15:46.960 illegals released into the population since last October one, twenty 1365 01:15:47.000 --> 01:15:50.600 over twenty five thousand released since calendar year twenty twenty three. 1366 01:15:51.199 --> 01:15:56.000 California responsible for when the thirteen thousand released. Illinois coming 1367 01:15:56.039 --> 01:15:59.640 in at number two with almost three thousand, sixteen hundred 1368 01:15:59.680 --> 01:16:04.000 released by Virginia, Massachusetts thirteen hundred, Connecticut eleven hundred plus. 1369 01:16:05.680 --> 01:16:09.600 They also focus on particular jails, apparently some worse than other. 1370 01:16:09.720 --> 01:16:12.479 The worst defender the Santa Clara County jail, where they 1371 01:16:12.760 --> 01:16:15.720 were more than three thousand criminal illegal aliens were allowed 1372 01:16:15.760 --> 01:16:19.319 to just walk out into the population no notice to ICE. 1373 01:16:21.199 --> 01:16:23.319 Borders are Tom Holme and said, we're going to double 1374 01:16:23.399 --> 01:16:28.880 down and triple down on sanctuary cities. Why not because 1375 01:16:29.039 --> 01:16:32.800 they're a blue city or a blue state, Because we 1376 01:16:32.960 --> 01:16:38.000 know that's where the problem is. They're releasing a public 1377 01:16:38.239 --> 01:16:41.319 safety threats to the streets every day, he pointed out. 1378 01:16:42.960 --> 01:16:45.439 And of course it's a widely shared public opinion that 1379 01:16:45.600 --> 01:16:49.600 most most by a pretty damn significant majority, looking at 1380 01:16:49.640 --> 01:16:53.359 all of the polling, most Americans, most people polled, want 1381 01:16:53.479 --> 01:16:55.600 these people thrown out of the country. They want them 1382 01:16:55.640 --> 01:16:59.039 locked up or otherwise removed. Why because they are a 1383 01:16:59.039 --> 01:17:08.479 bunch of criminals, I mean, duh. Meanwhile, Democrats are, you know, 1384 01:17:08.560 --> 01:17:11.359 pushing for federal and then in some states like Massachusetts, 1385 01:17:11.840 --> 01:17:15.960 pushing for laws preventing ICE agents from wearing face mask 1386 01:17:16.079 --> 01:17:20.119 and requiring them to show their name and their badge number. 1387 01:17:21.279 --> 01:17:22.800 And if you think about that, you're like, well, these 1388 01:17:22.840 --> 01:17:25.800 are government agents, these are people who should probably identify themselves. 1389 01:17:25.840 --> 01:17:27.439 But you know what, when you are dealing with a 1390 01:17:27.520 --> 01:17:31.039 mob of Antifa folks, all of whom have facial coverings 1391 01:17:31.079 --> 01:17:33.920 head to toe, you can't see who they are, doesn't 1392 01:17:33.920 --> 01:17:37.359 it seem illogical to prevent that from the same right 1393 01:17:38.000 --> 01:17:42.039 being exercised by the officers. Why because they're doxing them. 1394 01:17:42.840 --> 01:17:45.119 The reason they want the officers to have to expose 1395 01:17:45.159 --> 01:17:47.479 their face and provide their name and their badge number 1396 01:17:47.800 --> 01:17:50.000 is so these crazy folks out here who are hell 1397 01:17:50.079 --> 01:17:52.079 bent for leather to go after Ice. Look, we've had 1398 01:17:52.119 --> 01:18:00.840 people shooting at ICE officers. Coordinated activity he designed to 1399 01:18:01.159 --> 01:18:04.439 harm a slash murder ice officers just happened the other 1400 01:18:04.520 --> 01:18:08.439 day ten of a Morkan in concert. If you don't 1401 01:18:08.479 --> 01:18:10.439 think that they're if they're going to commit an action 1402 01:18:10.640 --> 01:18:12.640 like that outside of an ICE facility, you know, blow 1403 01:18:12.720 --> 01:18:15.479 up fireworks, bring them out of their their their their building, 1404 01:18:15.560 --> 01:18:20.560 and then mow them down with gunfire. If they're able 1405 01:18:20.600 --> 01:18:24.039 to identify these officers, the officers families then become at risk. 1406 01:18:24.119 --> 01:18:26.720 And that's been a threat threats against ICE officers and 1407 01:18:26.840 --> 01:18:31.119 their families up seven hundred percent according by all the 1408 01:18:31.239 --> 01:18:34.840 reporting out there, they're the ones in the crosshairs on this. 1409 01:18:35.840 --> 01:18:37.560 And I suppose it's one thing to make an argument 1410 01:18:37.560 --> 01:18:38.720 that you should be able to go after an ICE 1411 01:18:38.760 --> 01:18:41.159 officer for doing his or her job, but the idea 1412 01:18:41.239 --> 01:18:48.800 you're bringing family members into it. And who's pushing for 1413 01:18:48.920 --> 01:18:54.640 this legislation the Democrats. The Democrats like the mayors in 1414 01:18:55.000 --> 01:18:59.960 Chicago and Los Angeles, who are actively telling the power 1415 01:19:00.000 --> 01:19:08.720 population to rise up against ICE. And I suppose one 1416 01:19:08.720 --> 01:19:10.359 of the ways you rise up against ICE is you 1417 01:19:10.439 --> 01:19:13.359 engage in this awful behavior behind the scenes by doxing 1418 01:19:13.479 --> 01:19:15.960 them and going after them and threatening them and their 1419 01:19:16.000 --> 01:19:19.880 family members and actually committing acts of violence against them 1420 01:19:19.920 --> 01:19:22.399 and their family members, which has also happened.

He didn't have a whole lot 1449 01:20:55.279 --> 01:20:57.479 to say, though from what I gathered from the reporting, 1450 01:20:57.560 --> 01:21:01.399 you can fill in the details on that apparently red bikes. 1451 01:21:01.439 --> 01:21:03.039 So we're going to take the red bikes away from 1452 01:21:03.039 --> 01:21:06.479 folks tomorrow and Saturday overnight.

Apparently it had 1454 01:21:10.199 --> 01:21:13.319 some positive impact, or at least it suggested or they 1455 01:21:13.399 --> 01:21:14.199 suggested it did. 1456 01:21:14.359 --> 01:21:14.399 So. 1457 01:21:15.079 --> 01:21:18.000 I didn't realize bikes and e scooters were really at 1458 01:21:18.079 --> 01:21:20.039 the core of the crime wave going on in the 1459 01:21:20.079 --> 01:21:23.560 city Cincinnati, But I suppose when you're trying to come 1460 01:21:23.600 --> 01:21:25.359 up with solutions, every little bit counts. 1461 01:21:25.439 --> 01:21:28.119 That's right, every little bit counts. But they they've got big, 1462 01:21:28.199 --> 01:21:28.880 big problems. 1463 01:21:29.119 --> 01:21:33.439 Well, they argue that violent crime and murders or gun 1464 01:21:33.720 --> 01:21:37.239 crime specifically were down, at least that's what was reported. 1465 01:21:37.960 --> 01:21:40.840 Well, it was what I took away from the news 1466 01:21:40.920 --> 01:21:45.600 conference was that, yeah, things are getting better, but they 1467 01:21:45.680 --> 01:21:48.720 have a perception problem that the public doesn't perceive that 1468 01:21:48.840 --> 01:21:52.840 things are getting better. So they're really battling a bad 1469 01:21:52.960 --> 01:21:55.520 perception rather than the bad data. 1470 01:21:56.319 --> 01:22:00.800 Well, you believe if you live in any of the 1471 01:22:00.880 --> 01:22:02.920 given neighborhoods in the city and you see it with 1472 01:22:03.039 --> 01:22:05.760 your own eyes and we it is widely reported that 1473 01:22:05.880 --> 01:22:08.239 one of the bigger problems we've got downtown are these 1474 01:22:08.880 --> 01:22:12.840 roving gangs of teenagers, right, I mean the you know, 1475 01:22:12.920 --> 01:22:14.640 it's like cockroaches in the middle of the night. They 1476 01:22:14.680 --> 01:22:16.119 all gather as soon as you turn the light on, 1477 01:22:16.119 --> 01:22:18.439 they scurry in multiple different directions. You can't get them. 1478 01:22:18.920 --> 01:22:22.359 Yeah. Well, your friend Jim Kiefer raised a good, good 1479 01:22:22.439 --> 01:22:24.520 point yesterday when I was speaking with them about this 1480 01:22:24.720 --> 01:22:27.920 blue Ash issue where you had these hundreds of kids 1481 01:22:28.000 --> 01:22:30.680 up there. How do they get there? And what's the 1482 01:22:30.800 --> 01:22:34.079 signal how do they communicate with each other to everybody 1483 01:22:34.199 --> 01:22:35.479 know to go to this one look. 1484 01:22:35.640 --> 01:22:38.520 Well, then easy answer to that one. As we live 1485 01:22:38.720 --> 01:22:41.760 in an internet society now. You know the old days, 1486 01:22:41.800 --> 01:22:43.359 if you wanted to get a whole bunch of people together, 1487 01:22:43.359 --> 01:22:46.439 what did you print flyers up? You mailed things to people. 1488 01:22:46.640 --> 01:22:49.720 I mean there was no one stop shop for your 1489 01:22:50.000 --> 01:22:53.000 you know, your causes website like we've got now, hey, 1490 01:22:53.079 --> 01:22:54.800 we're all gonna eat in blue Ash and you know, 1491 01:22:54.840 --> 01:22:57.640 shoot fireworks of people just to be a nuisance. You know, 1492 01:22:57.960 --> 01:23:00.000 you can have a house party in like five seconds 1493 01:23:00.199 --> 01:23:02.319 now you put it online, house party had thrown the 1494 01:23:02.319 --> 01:23:04.239 black address. The next thing, you know, four hundred people 1495 01:23:04.319 --> 01:23:04.760 showed up. 1496 01:23:05.239 --> 01:23:08.239 Well, the other thing that I noted in the press 1497 01:23:08.279 --> 01:23:12.560 conference was Cheryl Long finally did start talking about this 1498 01:23:12.800 --> 01:23:16.000 program that they started back in January called Act for Sincy. 1499 01:23:17.079 --> 01:23:21.640 And the mayor was on Cincinnati edition last week and 1500 01:23:22.159 --> 01:23:24.560 never said a word about Act for Sincy. And it 1501 01:23:24.720 --> 01:23:30.119 was launched in January as a holistic approach to reducing 1502 01:23:30.199 --> 01:23:32.600 gun violence, and they never said anything about it. 1503 01:23:34.640 --> 01:23:37.319 Well, that doesn't make any sense, is that because of marketing, 1504 01:23:37.479 --> 01:23:39.920 we need to have this new program because we have 1505 01:23:40.039 --> 01:23:42.560 a problem with gun violence, which of course confirms what 1506 01:23:42.680 --> 01:23:46.199 everybody out there in the real world suspects. Anyway, Well, 1507 01:23:46.359 --> 01:23:47.720 the marketing thing here. 1508 01:23:49.159 --> 01:23:53.199 You know, the terrible murder of mister Herringer. Oh yeah, 1509 01:23:53.720 --> 01:23:59.479 and the response from his widow, she summed it up 1510 01:23:59.520 --> 01:24:04.000 in three words. It's optics over outcomes, right, And a 1511 01:24:04.039 --> 01:24:06.520 lot of the things that this city council and this 1512 01:24:06.680 --> 01:24:10.479 mayor are doing are really for optics. And you can 1513 01:24:10.560 --> 01:24:15.199 go through program after program, and they put a little 1514 01:24:15.199 --> 01:24:18.399 bit of money in all of these programs, and then 1515 01:24:18.479 --> 01:24:21.279 when somebody says, what are you doing about this, they say, 1516 01:24:21.359 --> 01:24:23.720 we have a program for that. And even if they 1517 01:24:23.800 --> 01:24:27.199 funded at like ten thousand or twenty five thousand, you know, 1518 01:24:27.479 --> 01:24:29.920 I was at a meeting in bond Hill about connected 1519 01:24:29.960 --> 01:24:34.159 communities with the Vice Mayor and Scottie Johnson, and it 1520 01:24:34.279 --> 01:24:37.279 was about how we can improve connected communities if that's 1521 01:24:37.319 --> 01:24:41.560 even possible. And somebody got up and said, well, what 1522 01:24:41.720 --> 01:24:45.840 about property taxes? Our property taxes are too high and 1523 01:24:45.960 --> 01:24:48.319 the Vice mayor said, well, we have a program for that. 1524 01:24:48.560 --> 01:24:51.199 They have a Well, no, they don't have a program. 1525 01:24:51.319 --> 01:24:54.479 Their program is to help people pay the Property Act 1526 01:24:54.960 --> 01:24:58.880 property taxes that they owe in back taxes their debt. 1527 01:24:59.439 --> 01:25:01.199 That's what they city has a program for. 1528 01:25:01.399 --> 01:25:03.960 But not to address the broader problem of the property 1529 01:25:04.039 --> 01:25:06.720 taxes going through the root exactly, and people who have 1530 01:25:06.920 --> 01:25:10.520 to pay them or otherwise end up perhaps losing their property. 1531 01:25:11.760 --> 01:25:13.279 They're on the hook for the money they paid it. 1532 01:25:13.399 --> 01:25:15.560 So there's no relief for the folks with higher property 1533 01:25:15.600 --> 01:25:17.800 tax bills. There's only relief for folks who didn't pay 1534 01:25:17.800 --> 01:25:19.720 the property tax bills because they were too high. 1535 01:25:20.560 --> 01:25:20.800 Wow. 1536 01:25:21.279 --> 01:25:23.880 Okay, so that's problem solved. 1537 01:25:24.000 --> 01:25:27.960 But optics over outcomes is it really sums up this 1538 01:25:28.199 --> 01:25:29.319 mayor in this city council. 1539 01:25:29.960 --> 01:25:32.840 But you can't cover up the fact that week after 1540 01:25:32.880 --> 01:25:35.439 week after week we have all this hoorific criminal activity 1541 01:25:35.479 --> 01:25:37.880 that's going on. I mean, even as little as local 1542 01:25:38.000 --> 01:25:40.079 reporting we have, we do hear about it, we do 1543 01:25:40.239 --> 01:25:44.680 see it. So you can't hide behind the you can't 1544 01:25:45.000 --> 01:25:48.119 hide the news from people. And then there's the other component. 1545 01:25:48.159 --> 01:25:51.560 You talk to Ken favor of us since say FOP president, 1546 01:25:51.960 --> 01:25:55.840 and can will tell you that they know, like for example, 1547 01:25:56.039 --> 01:25:59.520 enforcing curfew. There is a curfew, Yes, but they don't 1548 01:25:59.520 --> 01:26:02.199 bother e dealing with it because they catch the teenager 1549 01:26:02.239 --> 01:26:04.840 who's violating curfew, they're not going to be dealt with 1550 01:26:04.960 --> 01:26:07.840 by the judicial component of the criminal justice system. The 1551 01:26:07.920 --> 01:26:10.000 judges will let them out. Happens all the time, so 1552 01:26:10.159 --> 01:26:12.159 much show that it's not even worth issuing a citation. 1553 01:26:12.359 --> 01:26:14.880 Well, there was a question. I couldn't hear it very well. 1554 01:26:14.960 --> 01:26:17.000 But I think one of the reporters yesterday at the 1555 01:26:17.039 --> 01:26:21.640 news conference was asking about twenty twenty Auburn, the juvenile 1556 01:26:22.279 --> 01:26:25.199 center or detention center whatever they call it, and that 1557 01:26:26.680 --> 01:26:28.640 the police were being turned away when they tried to 1558 01:26:28.680 --> 01:26:30.199 bring people up to twenty twenty. 1559 01:26:30.479 --> 01:26:32.319 Yes, so they had a you know, they have a 1560 01:26:32.399 --> 01:26:35.479 capacity to show that Ken Ken said that specifically, Yeah, 1561 01:26:35.479 --> 01:26:38.039 they have a capacity issue there, So what do they 1562 01:26:38.119 --> 01:26:42.439 do about it? That's a good question. Maybe there isn't 1563 01:26:42.439 --> 01:26:43.159 a program for that. 1564 01:26:43.520 --> 01:26:45.359 They need a program for. 1565 01:26:45.479 --> 01:26:48.600 That, another building, another place to take. 1566 01:26:48.479 --> 01:26:51.600 I tell you this, five million dollars they want to 1567 01:26:51.680 --> 01:26:56.520 spend on a day center for the homeless. That's controversial 1568 01:26:56.600 --> 01:26:59.600 because there are existing programs that think they could handle, 1569 01:27:00.319 --> 01:27:03.840 you know, the requirement or the need. But the city, 1570 01:27:03.920 --> 01:27:07.159 for some other reason wants to spend five million on 1571 01:27:07.279 --> 01:27:09.880 this building. Maybe they ought to turn the building into 1572 01:27:10.000 --> 01:27:12.199 a detention center. 1573 01:27:13.039 --> 01:27:16.560 Well, I like that idea. I mean, if there's not 1574 01:27:16.800 --> 01:27:18.880 room enough to deal with the folks that are violating 1575 01:27:18.920 --> 01:27:20.640 the law, then you need a place to put them. 1576 01:27:21.039 --> 01:27:25.840 I mean, I don't well, a question of prioritization. 1577 01:27:25.399 --> 01:27:27.520 Right exactly, That's exactly right, Brian. 1578 01:27:27.760 --> 01:27:34.399 And without enforcement, without the penalty component. Say this all 1579 01:27:34.439 --> 01:27:39.079 the time the criminal justice system, the deterrence element is 1580 01:27:39.159 --> 01:27:41.640 one of the key principles on it. If you do 1581 01:27:41.920 --> 01:27:46.560 something in violation of the law, there will be consequences. 1582 01:27:47.039 --> 01:27:49.159 That's a message is not only to punish the person 1583 01:27:49.199 --> 01:27:50.960 who is domb enough to violate the law, but it's 1584 01:27:50.960 --> 01:27:53.039 a message to every kid out there or everybody else 1585 01:27:53.079 --> 01:27:55.359 out there, this is what's going to happen to you. 1586 01:27:55.920 --> 01:27:57.520 And get rid of that, and it's like, well, wait 1587 01:27:57.520 --> 01:28:00.920 a second, nothing's going to happen to me, so why 1588 01:28:01.079 --> 01:28:02.359 bother obeying the law? 1589 01:28:02.439 --> 01:28:07.000 That's right, this whole act for sincey, this holistic approach 1590 01:28:07.079 --> 01:28:11.039 to reducing gun violence. They had a three million dollar 1591 01:28:11.159 --> 01:28:14.960 budget and it went to all of these nonprofits. And 1592 01:28:15.239 --> 01:28:19.920 that's what this is all about, external organizations. And there's 1593 01:28:19.960 --> 01:28:23.560 no way to measure whether anything they're doing has any 1594 01:28:23.680 --> 01:28:28.439 impact on reducing gun violence. But it's they give away 1595 01:28:28.479 --> 01:28:29.159 all this money. 1596 01:28:29.760 --> 01:28:31.880 Well and they can say something like we have a 1597 01:28:32.039 --> 01:28:35.000 program for that and we have already addressed that and 1598 01:28:35.199 --> 01:28:39.000 you know, but yeah, again, this is kind of like USAID. 1599 01:28:39.680 --> 01:28:41.720 It's a local versus of the USA. The money goes 1600 01:28:41.720 --> 01:28:43.319 out into the world and you know, at least on 1601 01:28:43.359 --> 01:28:45.479 a federal level, tens of millions of dollars to fund 1602 01:28:45.520 --> 01:28:48.760 various programs around the globe. We don't know if that 1603 01:28:48.920 --> 01:28:51.600 work was even done. No one's following the money, No 1604 01:28:51.640 --> 01:28:53.920 one knows where it goes. What the salaries are being 1605 01:28:54.000 --> 01:28:58.920 paid within these nonprofit organizational structures, and they all get 1606 01:28:58.960 --> 01:29:01.800 pretty handsome salaries. Just because you're non probably doesn't mean 1607 01:29:01.840 --> 01:29:05.079 your CEO isn't making three hundred four hundred thousand dollars. 1608 01:29:05.119 --> 01:29:05.199 Right. 1609 01:29:05.279 --> 01:29:06.279 Yet, that's exactly right. 1610 01:29:06.520 --> 01:29:09.039 So that's what's happening locally. Then, Oh, we're a non 1611 01:29:09.159 --> 01:29:11.800 violence we have a holistic approach to getting kids off 1612 01:29:11.840 --> 01:29:13.960 the streets and getting them to play hockey at night 1613 01:29:14.119 --> 01:29:14.640 or whatever. 1614 01:29:14.920 --> 01:29:17.800 And but when the mayor showed up on the radio 1615 01:29:17.920 --> 01:29:20.680 program and started talking about all the things they're doing 1616 01:29:21.359 --> 01:29:23.680 to reduce gun violence, he never said a single word 1617 01:29:23.720 --> 01:29:26.720 about this act. For Cincy, they have a program where 1618 01:29:26.720 --> 01:29:29.159 they're basically paying people not to commit crimes. 1619 01:29:29.319 --> 01:29:30.800 Yeah, maybe we can dive into a few more of 1620 01:29:30.800 --> 01:29:33.039 the details for that. And again, why didn't he announce 1621 01:29:33.079 --> 01:29:35.560 it out loud early on? If it's such a great 1622 01:29:35.720 --> 01:29:39.600 thing for the city of Cincinnati, we'll bring Todd Zinzer back. 1623 01:29:39.640 --> 01:29:40.960 We have him for the full hour here in the 1624 01:29:40.960 --> 01:29:43.159 morning show, seven to fifteen. Right now, time for you 1625 01:29:43.199 --> 01:29:45.039 to mention odo exit which will not get rid of 1626 01:29:45.079 --> 01:29:47.119 the stench of politics, as I always like to joke, 1627 01:29:47.159 --> 01:29:48.560 but it gets rid of all the other odors that 1628 01:29:48.680 --> 01:29:52.560 everyone encounters at some point, sometimes more regularly than others. 1629 01:29:52.840 --> 01:29:55.000 Pet owners, you know what I'm talking about.

On fay, he's 1672 01:32:00.520 --> 01:32:04.960 always pointing posting things related to maybe corruption, fraud, ways 1673 01:32:05.000 --> 01:32:08.600 to be used inaction, outright stupidity with regard to what 1674 01:32:08.680 --> 01:32:11.439 the City of Cincinnati's doing dealing with its relative or 1675 01:32:11.520 --> 01:32:15.279 various rather challenges. We were talking about this Act for 1676 01:32:15.560 --> 01:32:19.560 Sincy program to are a blueprint for violence production that 1677 01:32:19.600 --> 01:32:22.119 says on the cover of the materials achieving change together. 1678 01:32:22.239 --> 01:32:24.960 This came out in January. You mentioned without any fanfare, 1679 01:32:25.039 --> 01:32:28.479 without any formal notice, that here were implementing this program. 1680 01:32:28.600 --> 01:32:31.399 But as you just got done explaining, it funds a 1681 01:32:31.479 --> 01:32:34.720 bunch of non governmental organization outside groups who claim to 1682 01:32:34.800 --> 01:32:37.359 have the solution on various levels for the problem with 1683 01:32:37.479 --> 01:32:39.880 violence and the system or in er in the system. 1684 01:32:42.640 --> 01:32:46.359 What type of if you know, if any, what type 1685 01:32:46.399 --> 01:32:51.680 of vetting goes on before any given NGO accepts money 1686 01:32:51.720 --> 01:32:55.279 from the city to achieve their purported goal. There's got 1687 01:32:55.359 --> 01:32:58.199 to be some presentation to someone, Someone has to add 1688 01:32:58.279 --> 01:33:01.520 them to the limitless list of NGOs out there with 1689 01:33:01.640 --> 01:33:05.000 their hand hopefully in the cookie jar. So what process 1690 01:33:05.039 --> 01:33:08.119 do they go through to find out whether these proposals 1691 01:33:08.199 --> 01:33:11.439 are going to have any impact or effect and then 1692 01:33:11.560 --> 01:33:15.000 get the award to the exclusion of other NGOs we 1693 01:33:15.079 --> 01:33:17.359 already know. There's no follow up on whether the programs 1694 01:33:17.399 --> 01:33:20.479 work after the money's awarded, but the lead upright, how 1695 01:33:20.479 --> 01:33:22.039 do you get on the list of people with their 1696 01:33:22.079 --> 01:33:22.880 hand in the cookie jar? 1697 01:33:23.520 --> 01:33:28.720 Well, there's so many of these programs. I've counted so far, 1698 01:33:29.079 --> 01:33:33.159 over two hundred NGOs getting money or nonprofits or NGOs 1699 01:33:33.159 --> 01:33:37.079 getting money from the city, ranging from you know, fifteen 1700 01:33:37.159 --> 01:33:40.399 hundred dollars to a quarter of a million dollars or 1701 01:33:40.520 --> 01:33:43.479 actually I think the highest I know of is like 1702 01:33:43.600 --> 01:33:48.279 three hundred and twenty five thousand dollars. And there's there 1703 01:33:48.359 --> 01:33:50.920 is a program or a process for what they call 1704 01:33:51.079 --> 01:33:55.720 leverage support, which is what many of these organizations they 1705 01:33:55.760 --> 01:33:58.680 make application for those moneies, and that's that's become an 1706 01:33:58.720 --> 01:34:02.159 annual thing. And during budget season they all go down 1707 01:34:02.359 --> 01:34:04.920 in a congo line and request money from the city 1708 01:34:05.000 --> 01:34:07.439 council and not all of them get it. No, That's 1709 01:34:07.479 --> 01:34:11.600 what's surprising is how many organizations apply for this money 1710 01:34:11.720 --> 01:34:12.319 they don't get it. 1711 01:34:12.560 --> 01:34:14.880 So see, that's I always wanted to emphasize that because 1712 01:34:15.279 --> 01:34:17.880 again there's always a limitless number of people that want 1713 01:34:18.079 --> 01:34:21.239 some money from government. Now, the question is how do 1714 01:34:21.279 --> 01:34:23.640 you weed through. Let's say a thousand groups show up 1715 01:34:24.079 --> 01:34:26.920 and there's only you know, one hundred different one hundred 1716 01:34:26.920 --> 01:34:28.319 allocations that they have money for. 1717 01:34:28.520 --> 01:34:32.119 High Who wins That's a good question. The city council. 1718 01:34:32.239 --> 01:34:34.239 They pick winners and losers when it comes to that, 1719 01:34:34.720 --> 01:34:38.279 and the city manager has an application process for at 1720 01:34:38.319 --> 01:34:42.079 least leverage support and probably for all these others. And 1721 01:34:43.880 --> 01:34:46.800 they tell they tell the organization what they're looking for, 1722 01:34:47.279 --> 01:34:50.680 for example, reducing gun violence, and all of a sudden, 1723 01:34:50.800 --> 01:34:54.479 all these NGOs that before now we're worried about climate 1724 01:34:54.600 --> 01:34:58.199 change or whatever, are now worried about gun violence. And 1725 01:34:58.279 --> 01:35:02.079 their proposals they just switch keywords in there about how 1726 01:35:02.319 --> 01:35:06.800 their work is going to reduce gun violence. Even the 1727 01:35:07.079 --> 01:35:10.239 Art Academy, for example, they showed up many at many 1728 01:35:10.359 --> 01:35:14.479 meetings requesting money and they've been getting funding for years 1729 01:35:14.520 --> 01:35:17.319 and years, but the city council is going to cut 1730 01:35:17.359 --> 01:35:21.199 them back. And they made the case that their work 1731 01:35:21.319 --> 01:35:25.279 at the Art Academy contributes to a reduction of violence. 1732 01:35:26.039 --> 01:35:29.359 And they believe that, and all these groups that are 1733 01:35:29.560 --> 01:35:32.079 working in this area think that if they do a 1734 01:35:32.159 --> 01:35:34.720 good job, that violence will be reduced. 1735 01:35:35.239 --> 01:35:38.119 Well, I suppose one could lean on the argument that, well, 1736 01:35:38.159 --> 01:35:40.439 if the kid's here in an art class for two hours, 1737 01:35:41.079 --> 01:35:44.119 then he can't be out committing crime. Air go it 1738 01:35:44.239 --> 01:35:48.039 reduces crime. Yes, it's some kind of logic chain like that. 1739 01:35:51.079 --> 01:35:54.880 I'm sorry to laugh. This is so sad and pathetic. 1740 01:35:55.239 --> 01:35:56.760 This really doesn't call for laughter. 1741 01:35:57.000 --> 01:36:01.880 Yeah, the normal person, or the regular or Cincinnatian will 1742 01:36:01.920 --> 01:36:08.760 have trouble connecting dance lessons to reducing violence. That's just 1743 01:36:08.880 --> 01:36:13.159 not Most people can't connect that in their own minds. 1744 01:36:13.800 --> 01:36:19.520 No, but I think that's a logical and reasonable inability. Yes, 1745 01:36:19.720 --> 01:36:23.039 the connection isn't there. So how could people possibly connect 1746 01:36:23.079 --> 01:36:24.920 it unless they fall back on the argument that they 1747 01:36:25.079 --> 01:36:27.319 just made well the kids in a dance lesson for 1748 01:36:27.359 --> 01:36:28.119 a couple hours. 1749 01:36:28.319 --> 01:36:31.399 Yeah. So, the way I looked at it, a lot 1750 01:36:31.479 --> 01:36:34.239 of these programs that they're funding, it seems more like 1751 01:36:34.880 --> 01:36:39.880 we're trying to help the community kind of thrive or 1752 01:36:40.039 --> 01:36:45.960 to live despite all the violence. These types of programs 1753 01:36:46.039 --> 01:36:48.279 help them, you know, survive through that. 1754 01:36:48.479 --> 01:36:51.319 They fuel the economic engine of the city by putting 1755 01:36:51.399 --> 01:36:55.119 dollars out there. Two organizations that maybe don't accomplish anything. 1756 01:36:55.399 --> 01:36:58.680 At least the money's out there, and presumably those organizations 1757 01:36:58.760 --> 01:37:00.800 will spend it on something, even if it's just going 1758 01:37:00.840 --> 01:37:02.119 out to dinner at a restaurant. 1759 01:37:02.760 --> 01:37:05.239 That's right, that's that's the government, that's the city government 1760 01:37:05.319 --> 01:37:05.520 we have. 1761 01:37:06.119 --> 01:37:08.800 I think we've put hit the nail on the head, 1762 01:37:08.800 --> 01:37:10.560 which is exactly what Todds ends are done, so it 1763 01:37:10.600 --> 01:37:12.319 does all the time. I understand we also have a 1764 01:37:12.399 --> 01:37:15.840 pension problem. Not as bad as Chicago and Illinois, but 1765 01:37:15.920 --> 01:37:17.520 we got a pension problem. We're gonna talk about that 1766 01:37:17.560 --> 01:37:19.960 with Todds. Enzer will take a break right now seven 1767 01:37:20.000 --> 01:37:22.159 twenty five and let me mention and strongly encourage you 1768 01:37:22.159 --> 01:37:23.600 to get in touch with it.

I'm Heather Pasco on fifty five KRC, 1812 01:39:33.359 --> 01:39:34.079 the talk station. 1813 01:39:35.720 --> 01:39:38.800 It's seven twenty nine right time, was here with Todd 1814 01:39:38.840 --> 01:39:41.880 Censer and studio going over City of Cincinnati issues. So 1815 01:39:42.600 --> 01:39:45.640 we went over the gun violence and the violence and 1816 01:39:45.720 --> 01:39:48.680 the crime problem generally speaking, and the proposal from the city, 1817 01:39:48.720 --> 01:39:51.199 which basically are funding a bunch of outside, non gouvernmental 1818 01:39:51.359 --> 01:39:56.720 organizations with zero to very little accountability. Let us move 1819 01:39:56.800 --> 01:39:58.800 on over to another area that's been a real problem 1820 01:39:58.840 --> 01:40:03.800 for a very long time. I'm sinc they's pension problems underfunded. 1821 01:40:04.039 --> 01:40:06.760 Is that a reasonable word to slap on the situation? 1822 01:40:07.079 --> 01:40:08.119 Yes, very much so. 1823 01:40:08.359 --> 01:40:10.239 And for how long has this been festering? 1824 01:40:10.880 --> 01:40:16.079 Well, the pension liability was the subject of a civil complaint, 1825 01:40:16.640 --> 01:40:19.520 federal complaint back in twenty fifteen, and there was a 1826 01:40:19.600 --> 01:40:26.119 settlement that is now governing the pension liability, and they 1827 01:40:26.159 --> 01:40:29.880 are required by twenty forty five, so that the settlement 1828 01:40:29.920 --> 01:40:32.880 gives them thirty years to get the thing up to 1829 01:40:32.960 --> 01:40:36.239 one hundred percent. But the thing is it was it 1830 01:40:36.399 --> 01:40:40.479 was settled in twenty fifteen, so ten years ago, and 1831 01:40:40.680 --> 01:40:45.079 they look at the funding ratio, which is how much 1832 01:40:45.279 --> 01:40:52.279 of the liability do they need to fix by a 1833 01:40:52.359 --> 01:40:54.640 certain date. So they're supposed to be one hundred percent 1834 01:40:54.840 --> 01:40:58.760 funded by twenty forty five, right, and when this when 1835 01:40:58.800 --> 01:41:04.159 the agreement was as uh finalized, they were at seventy 1836 01:41:04.239 --> 01:41:06.760 seven percent that ten years ago. 1837 01:41:06.800 --> 01:41:09.560 There ten years ago, seventy seven percent funded this. 1838 01:41:09.720 --> 01:41:11.640 Year sixty eight percent. 1839 01:41:11.800 --> 01:41:13.640 Oh hey, going to the right direction. 1840 01:41:13.840 --> 01:41:16.119 It's gone down every every year. 1841 01:41:16.920 --> 01:41:20.079 And well we'll fix it later. Is that the attitude. Yeah, 1842 01:41:20.159 --> 01:41:23.079 this seems like Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, and social welfare 1843 01:41:23.119 --> 01:41:25.279 safety net programs that are all scheduled to be belly 1844 01:41:25.399 --> 01:41:27.960 up by a certain date. Well, in Congress never does anything. 1845 01:41:28.039 --> 01:41:32.119 It is exactly the same. So with respect to with 1846 01:41:32.319 --> 01:41:35.319 respect to Congress, when it gets when when it gets 1847 01:41:35.359 --> 01:41:38.840 to the point where they can't kick the can down 1848 01:41:38.880 --> 01:41:42.720 the road anymore, they just they just print the money. 1849 01:41:42.920 --> 01:41:44.560 Print the money, or tell you're not going to get 1850 01:41:44.560 --> 01:41:45.399 as much as we promise. 1851 01:41:45.439 --> 01:41:49.600 That's right. Cincinnati can't do that exactly. So the Futures 1852 01:41:49.680 --> 01:41:54.119 Commission said the pension liability was the number one concern 1853 01:41:55.439 --> 01:42:00.520 in the city and this council, and that was two 1854 01:42:00.600 --> 01:42:03.880 years ago. Now that they the or was it two 1855 01:42:03.960 --> 01:42:07.479 years or one year the Future's Commission issued its report. 1856 01:42:07.880 --> 01:42:08.159 They're not. 1857 01:42:08.319 --> 01:42:12.760 They have done very little different and it's not that difficult. 1858 01:42:12.960 --> 01:42:15.600 So the reason that I talked about it recently on 1859 01:42:15.720 --> 01:42:20.159 my podcast is because at the end of the the 1860 01:42:20.319 --> 01:42:24.039 last meeting before the summer break that the the city 1861 01:42:24.119 --> 01:42:28.079 manager slipped in the annual report from the Pension from 1862 01:42:28.119 --> 01:42:36.079 the Pension uh outfit, and it has five recommendations in it. 1863 01:42:37.720 --> 01:42:44.000 Four of them are totally unacceptable, you know, reduce, reduce benefits. 1864 01:42:44.920 --> 01:42:48.000 One of them is the thing that the Future Commission 1865 01:42:48.000 --> 01:42:50.359 wants to do is they want to regionalize the waterworks 1866 01:42:50.399 --> 01:42:54.199 and monetize that. Take that money, put it into the 1867 01:42:54.279 --> 01:42:57.520 pension and make the pension attractive for the state pension 1868 01:42:57.600 --> 01:42:59.960 system to take it over. Well, that that's going to 1869 01:43:00.840 --> 01:43:04.279 do that, No, that's not going to happen. It's a 1870 01:43:04.359 --> 01:43:07.800 long shot at best. It requires a referendum to get 1871 01:43:07.880 --> 01:43:10.880 rid of the water works. So the only thing they're 1872 01:43:10.960 --> 01:43:15.840 left with is to put more money into the pension fund. 1873 01:43:16.039 --> 01:43:17.960 That's the solution to the problem. 1874 01:43:18.279 --> 01:43:21.039 And if you look at their recommendation, it would require 1875 01:43:21.079 --> 01:43:24.760 an extra I mean they're making a contribution now. It's 1876 01:43:24.800 --> 01:43:27.359 about I think it's up into sixty million or sixty 1877 01:43:27.439 --> 01:43:29.840 four million dollars a year they put into the pension 1878 01:43:30.279 --> 01:43:33.760 liability or the pension fund. The pension fund, they have 1879 01:43:33.880 --> 01:43:36.960 more people taking out than they have putting in. And 1880 01:43:38.000 --> 01:43:41.479 according to this recommendation from the trustees, it would take 1881 01:43:41.960 --> 01:43:45.319 whatever the city's putting in now put in an extra 1882 01:43:45.399 --> 01:43:48.920 two million dollars every year, year after year on top 1883 01:43:49.000 --> 01:43:52.840 of that, and they're projecting that if the city does that, 1884 01:43:53.640 --> 01:43:55.800 it will be one hundred percent by twenty forty five, 1885 01:43:55.960 --> 01:43:59.680 like those settlement requires. And why we're looking at all 1886 01:43:59.760 --> 01:44:03.239 these other options and all this other stuff. I don't 1887 01:44:03.279 --> 01:44:04.760 get that just put the money in it set. 1888 01:44:05.119 --> 01:44:06.600 Well, if you take it and put it into the 1889 01:44:06.680 --> 01:44:09.960 pension system, that means there's fewer non government organizations out 1890 01:44:10.000 --> 01:44:11.800 there in the world that they're gonna get funded because 1891 01:44:11.840 --> 01:44:13.399 they don't have enough money to go around. 1892 01:44:13.720 --> 01:44:18.319 That is my exact concern. We're gonna keep spending money 1893 01:44:18.640 --> 01:44:23.760 trying to save people and they may not save the city. 1894 01:44:24.920 --> 01:44:28.479 Well, and the practical and correct me if I'm wrong 1895 01:44:28.520 --> 01:44:30.720 on this, The practical effect of that is the worst. 1896 01:44:30.800 --> 01:44:35.960 The pension problem is the worst. Are bond rating. 1897 01:44:36.359 --> 01:44:39.159 Well, yes, it has definitely have implications like. 1898 01:44:39.199 --> 01:44:41.359 That, which means if they ever want to borrow money 1899 01:44:41.399 --> 01:44:42.880 for a big project, they're going to pay a half 1900 01:44:42.880 --> 01:44:44.199 a lot more money and interest on it. 1901 01:44:44.399 --> 01:44:44.600 Yeah. 1902 01:44:44.720 --> 01:44:47.119 Well, they have no problem borrowing money, that's for sure. 1903 01:44:48.600 --> 01:44:54.960 Lord Almighty, that's an easy fix to todd Well, it 1904 01:44:55.079 --> 01:44:58.520 really is. It's just like, okay, we must allocate primary 1905 01:44:58.600 --> 01:45:01.159 first and foremost. Here's the money we need to put 1906 01:45:01.199 --> 01:45:02.960 in the pension system to keep it alive and to 1907 01:45:03.119 --> 01:45:05.840 comply with the settlement agreement. We only have a window 1908 01:45:05.840 --> 01:45:08.199 of opportunity here and it's quickly running out, and it, 1909 01:45:08.279 --> 01:45:11.800 Lily is getting worse. So here's the money done, what's 1910 01:45:11.920 --> 01:45:15.600 left over right right, absolutely, and then we'll divide that 1911 01:45:15.760 --> 01:45:19.399 up among maybe infrastructure, repairing roads and keeping bridges together, 1912 01:45:19.840 --> 01:45:22.720 and the fleet which is falling apart apparently got to 1913 01:45:22.760 --> 01:45:24.640 have more money allocated to that and some other issues 1914 01:45:24.640 --> 01:45:28.359 we'll talk about with dot censor. Well, do you have 1915 01:45:28.399 --> 01:45:30.119 any good news to talk about with what's going on 1916 01:45:30.159 --> 01:45:32.319 the city today? Todd pause, seven thirty five.

An earlier stall seventy 1960 01:47:44.239 --> 01:47:46.479 five northbound at I two to seventy five is just 1961 01:47:46.680 --> 01:47:48.800 cleared from the left shoulder. As you're moving a bit 1962 01:47:48.880 --> 01:47:51.119 better here, what do you have some pockets of heavy 1963 01:47:51.159 --> 01:47:54.079 traffic like an I seventy five southbound Galberth Road to 1964 01:47:54.159 --> 01:47:57.800 Paddock Road. I'm Heather Pasco and fifty five krc's the 1965 01:47:57.880 --> 01:47:58.640 Talk station. 1966 01:48:00.640 --> 01:48:03.840 Seven on a Thursday. Bryan timas here where Citizen Watchdog 1967 01:48:03.880 --> 01:48:07.600 todds In's or check out his podcast. Citizen Watchdog deals 1968 01:48:07.640 --> 01:48:09.039 with a lot of the issues that we're going through 1969 01:48:09.079 --> 01:48:12.960 this morning. City Cincinnati focused issues. We talked earlier about violence, 1970 01:48:13.000 --> 01:48:15.560 We talked about the pension problem. We've got a simple 1971 01:48:15.680 --> 01:48:18.600 problem to solve. You just need to allocate the money 1972 01:48:18.760 --> 01:48:21.680 up front and sufficient quantities that you'll be able to 1973 01:48:21.720 --> 01:48:24.920 replenish the pension pursuing to the settlement agreement from twenty 1974 01:48:25.000 --> 01:48:27.760 fifteen by calendar year twenty forty five. I mean, it 1975 01:48:27.800 --> 01:48:29.319 sounds like you have forever to do this, but it 1976 01:48:29.399 --> 01:48:33.199 only gets worse. Still blows my mind now, which leads 1977 01:48:33.239 --> 01:48:35.479 me to the question before we get to mismanagement and 1978 01:48:35.560 --> 01:48:38.319 lack of accounty, lack of accountability from city leaders on 1979 01:48:38.359 --> 01:48:42.399 a variety of other areas, including like the fleet fifty 1980 01:48:42.439 --> 01:48:45.560 percent of which I guess is out of service, maintenance 1981 01:48:45.640 --> 01:48:47.960 upkeep prepares, some of it needs to be replaced. It's 1982 01:48:48.000 --> 01:48:49.840 one of the reasons we had problems with snow removal, 1983 01:48:49.920 --> 01:48:52.239 fire trucks, all that kind of stuff. Right, So another 1984 01:48:52.439 --> 01:48:56.960 simple you know, yeah, gotta take care of it. Maintenance, upkeep, 1985 01:48:57.079 --> 01:49:01.079 and replacement is a simple function of government. It's a 1986 01:49:01.279 --> 01:49:04.760 known entity. Do you get the impression? And I asked 1987 01:49:04.760 --> 01:49:07.880 you this specifically, are they just asleep at the wheel 1988 01:49:08.720 --> 01:49:11.560 or are they dealing with something else that's a higher 1989 01:49:11.680 --> 01:49:14.880 priority for I mean from from their perspective for the 1990 01:49:15.000 --> 01:49:16.560 use of the city taxpayer dollars. 1991 01:49:17.039 --> 01:49:17.239 Yeah. 1992 01:49:17.279 --> 01:49:20.880 Well, the the agenda that that they carry out is 1993 01:49:21.000 --> 01:49:24.119 very progressive, all of these programs for you know, the 1994 01:49:24.199 --> 01:49:28.039 social programs, et cetera. They have a financial freedom blueprint 1995 01:49:28.239 --> 01:49:32.359 that I'm looking into that is just a variety of 1996 01:49:32.520 --> 01:49:35.840 things that they're funding. I think I I think I 1997 01:49:36.000 --> 01:49:40.479 counted like eleven million dollars going into their financial freedom program. 1998 01:49:40.600 --> 01:49:42.840 What the hell is financial freedom program? 1999 01:49:43.319 --> 01:49:46.640 You It's it's hard to it's hard to believe. But 2000 01:49:46.800 --> 01:49:50.199 they have, like I don't know, twenty different things they're 2001 01:49:50.239 --> 01:49:55.199 working on, uh to promote financial freedom of you know, 2002 01:49:55.319 --> 01:49:56.840 the various segments. 2003 01:49:56.479 --> 01:49:58.960 Of the population. What does that even mean? 2004 01:49:59.479 --> 01:50:05.520 Financial freedom? For example, they have appropriated money to give 2005 01:50:05.680 --> 01:50:11.079 to kids for savings accounts. Right, They do things like that, 2006 01:50:11.880 --> 01:50:16.000 and I don't have the list with me, but it's well, 2007 01:50:16.039 --> 01:50:17.520 wait a minute, I do have the list with me. 2008 01:50:17.600 --> 01:50:23.199 I'll give you an example, Okay, all right, it's launch 2009 01:50:23.239 --> 01:50:26.640 a program to prevent eviction by supporting tenants with legal 2010 01:50:26.680 --> 01:50:30.000 services and emergency assistants. They're going to fund that at 2011 01:50:30.000 --> 01:50:32.800 a million dollars. That was a couple of years ago. Okay, 2012 01:50:32.880 --> 01:50:34.520 so those are those are the kind of things that 2013 01:50:34.640 --> 01:50:39.199 they do. They give it's it. It follows a very 2014 01:50:39.319 --> 01:50:46.079 detailed analysis of you know, how the underserved populations became 2015 01:50:46.239 --> 01:50:48.399 underserved and how they're going to work out of that. 2016 01:50:49.279 --> 01:50:51.760 All right, let me just walk through this logically if 2017 01:50:51.800 --> 01:50:54.680 I can. So you're out there in the world, you're 2018 01:50:54.720 --> 01:50:59.720 having a problem paying the red City Cincinnati will give 2019 01:50:59.720 --> 01:51:03.920 you money to cover the hole you're in, so you 2020 01:51:04.000 --> 01:51:08.359 get your rent paid? Yes, then what about next month? 2021 01:51:08.840 --> 01:51:12.119 Unless you change that person's circumstance to where they have 2022 01:51:12.359 --> 01:51:14.239 a job and can afford to make enough money to 2023 01:51:14.279 --> 01:51:16.960 cover rent, then the problem is never going to go away. 2024 01:51:17.119 --> 01:51:21.039 You're just constantly providing handouts to folks who are dealing 2025 01:51:21.079 --> 01:51:22.640 with that circumstance. 2026 01:51:22.399 --> 01:51:26.079 Right, And I don't really know exactly how they administer 2027 01:51:26.239 --> 01:51:26.760 the program. 2028 01:51:27.039 --> 01:51:28.800 But oh, like going back to the other programs, you 2029 01:51:28.840 --> 01:51:29.680 don't know how they administer. 2030 01:51:30.199 --> 01:51:34.279 But they have a lot going on in that regard. 2031 01:51:34.359 --> 01:51:36.720 They have a lot going on with the financial freedom, 2032 01:51:37.000 --> 01:51:39.800 They have a lot going on with the Green Cincinnati Plan. 2033 01:51:40.319 --> 01:51:45.279 They have a lot going on with this alternative to 2034 01:51:45.399 --> 01:51:48.399 response to response. 2035 01:51:48.039 --> 01:51:50.520 Crisis, to rethink the police component. 2036 01:51:50.920 --> 01:51:53.119 And that's all related to this act for since the 2037 01:51:53.560 --> 01:51:56.119 it And they have all of these things going on, 2038 01:51:56.600 --> 01:51:58.640 and you really have to wonder whether any of them 2039 01:51:58.680 --> 01:52:01.800 are working. And they don't have the thing that bothers 2040 01:52:01.840 --> 01:52:04.439 me the most that there's no oversight in the city whatsoever. 2041 01:52:04.760 --> 01:52:06.920 Right, there's no inspector general. 2042 01:52:07.079 --> 01:52:07.199 Right. 2043 01:52:07.239 --> 01:52:10.560 They have an internal audit manager, and I think she's 2044 01:52:10.640 --> 01:52:13.479 issued some, you know, a few good reports, but I 2045 01:52:13.600 --> 01:52:16.239 also don't think that the city council reads the reports. 2046 01:52:16.279 --> 01:52:19.600 And the fleet the fleet audit, the audit of the 2047 01:52:19.720 --> 01:52:24.840 city's fleet is a prime example. She issued her audit 2048 01:52:25.039 --> 01:52:28.239 on the problems with the fleet in January of twenty four, 2049 01:52:29.079 --> 01:52:33.079 a year before this winter storm Blair, and had the 2050 01:52:33.399 --> 01:52:36.720 city council read the report or even this, I don't 2051 01:52:36.760 --> 01:52:39.920 even know if the city manager reads the report. Maybe 2052 01:52:39.920 --> 01:52:41.640 they could have taken care of some of this stuff. 2053 01:52:44.479 --> 01:52:47.800 Well, I'm a little suspect on your conclusion. It is 2054 01:52:48.039 --> 01:52:50.000 maybe they could have taken care of this, and any 2055 01:52:50.079 --> 01:52:57.319 responsible elected official would have. But going back to their 2056 01:52:57.840 --> 01:53:01.079 you know, the settlement of the pension programming, that is 2057 01:53:01.199 --> 01:53:05.920 a settlement. There is an obligation, legal obligation to fund it. 2058 01:53:06.479 --> 01:53:09.239 They didn't do that, and I'm sure they're all aware 2059 01:53:09.279 --> 01:53:14.279 of that. So priorities. I think there's a failure of 2060 01:53:14.399 --> 01:53:17.079 priorities here on the council. Seven forty five one more 2061 01:53:17.159 --> 01:53:19.119 with Todd Zenzer, with Ivan a few more of these 2062 01:53:19.239 --> 01:53:22.600 related issues. After I mentioned Affordable imaging services, Affordable men 2063 01:53:22.680 --> 01:53:24.760 Imaging dot com is where you find them online.

Hospital imaging department 2067 01:53:36.079 --> 01:53:38.119 we'll charge you, like to say, for a CT scan 2068 01:53:38.239 --> 01:53:41.560 five grand and climbing maybe you get a separate bill 2069 01:53:41.600 --> 01:53:46.079 for the radiologist report. Uh No, I've done my CT 2070 01:53:46.199 --> 01:53:48.760 scans at Affordable Imaging Services four hundred and fifty with 2071 01:53:48.840 --> 01:53:52.800 no contrast six hundred with the contrast, and those low 2072 01:53:52.880 --> 01:53:56.600 prices come with the board certified radiology support included, so 2073 01:53:56.680 --> 01:53:58.760 I've never had a problem.

Aaron Winer. He's a member 2105 01:55:46.039 --> 01:55:48.760 of the Clifton Community Council, also running for council as 2106 01:55:48.800 --> 01:55:51.880 a charter Right about the street takeover incident that's going 2107 01:55:51.960 --> 01:55:53.479 to take place. After the top of the UR news, 2108 01:55:53.520 --> 01:55:55.199 then we'll hear from Jay Ratliff closed out in a 2109 01:55:55.239 --> 01:55:59.079 real positive note with our iHeartMedia aviation expert nothing positive 2110 01:55:59.159 --> 01:56:02.319 on our discussion. The discussion has been a wonderfully enlightening one. 2111 01:56:02.399 --> 01:56:05.720 Todd Zenzer in studio, he's our citizen watchdog going through 2112 01:56:06.119 --> 01:56:08.680 the what I would argue failure of priorities by the 2113 01:56:09.119 --> 01:56:12.960 decision making on counsel and the mayor went through quite 2114 01:56:12.960 --> 01:56:16.920 a few of these. You mentioned the sidewalk repair. Yes, 2115 01:56:17.520 --> 01:56:19.840 obviously we have a huge infrastructure problem in the city. 2116 01:56:19.960 --> 01:56:22.680 I had the railway wave. Money was supposed to generate 2117 01:56:22.800 --> 01:56:27.159 sufficient revenue to handle the roads and existing infrastructure. We 2118 01:56:27.239 --> 01:56:29.199 still have a pothole problem. I don't know they've ever 2119 01:56:29.279 --> 01:56:33.960 repaid Sunset had to get that in there. But sidewalk 2120 01:56:34.000 --> 01:56:36.760 repair now is sidewalk repair. This is something that they 2121 01:56:36.800 --> 01:56:37.760 allocated money for. 2122 01:56:38.239 --> 01:56:44.640 Yes, they'd started a pilot program on sidewalk repair funded 2123 01:56:44.640 --> 01:56:49.880 at one hundred thousand dollars, which and again the way 2124 01:56:49.960 --> 01:56:53.960 it works is people calling to complain about their neighbors sidewalks, right, 2125 01:56:54.760 --> 01:56:57.159 and the city goes out and evaluates and they give 2126 01:56:57.199 --> 01:57:01.800 it a grade of good, fair, and condemned. 2127 01:57:02.359 --> 01:57:02.520 Right. 2128 01:57:02.960 --> 01:57:06.359 So if you're fair, you need to fix it, but 2129 01:57:06.439 --> 01:57:08.439 we're not going to order you to fix it. But 2130 01:57:08.560 --> 01:57:11.720 if it's condemned, you're ordered by the city to fix it. 2131 01:57:11.920 --> 01:57:14.399 The sidewalk is the property owner's responsibility. 2132 01:57:14.640 --> 01:57:17.000 That's that's the way the municipal code reads right now. 2133 01:57:17.079 --> 01:57:19.079 Ya interesting, even though the property owner didn't build the 2134 01:57:19.119 --> 01:57:21.199 sidewalk in the first place, the city built it. 2135 01:57:21.399 --> 01:57:22.319 That's that's right. 2136 01:57:23.359 --> 01:57:26.520 Okay, But you got to pay for it yourself, that's right. 2137 01:57:26.800 --> 01:57:29.680 And so I guess one of the members of council 2138 01:57:30.319 --> 01:57:33.199 got complaints or somebody gave her a good idea to 2139 01:57:33.319 --> 01:57:36.359 use railway money to fix the sidewalks. So that's what 2140 01:57:36.520 --> 01:57:39.119 she wants to do. And then the Vice mayor jumps 2141 01:57:39.159 --> 01:57:42.720 in and she joins the h She joins the effort, 2142 01:57:43.119 --> 01:57:48.079 but for only for the rising fifteen neighborhoods, So this 2143 01:57:48.319 --> 01:57:51.199 is going to be limited to the to seven neighborhoods 2144 01:57:51.239 --> 01:57:57.840 identified by the DOTE the Department of Transportation. And the 2145 01:57:57.960 --> 01:58:01.279 thing is that that the department already has a sidewalk 2146 01:58:01.479 --> 01:58:06.159 repair program and it's they they you know, they do 2147 01:58:06.359 --> 01:58:08.439 take care of like the gutters and the and the 2148 01:58:08.560 --> 01:58:11.960 curves and things like that, and the property owner takes 2149 01:58:12.000 --> 01:58:14.119 care of the sidewalks themselves. So it's a kind of 2150 01:58:14.199 --> 01:58:18.439 a joint effort. And if you go back and look 2151 01:58:18.520 --> 01:58:21.439 at the list of the four hundred million dollars in 2152 01:58:21.560 --> 01:58:25.359 deferred maintenance that the city generated during the campaign. Although 2153 01:58:25.359 --> 01:58:27.720 I've never seen four hundred million, I've seen two hundred 2154 01:58:27.720 --> 01:58:32.840 and fifty. Residential sidewalks are not on that list. So 2155 01:58:33.039 --> 01:58:36.359 we have another four hundred million dollars worth of infrastructure 2156 01:58:36.439 --> 01:58:40.359 to take care of. Why would we add to that 2157 01:58:41.119 --> 01:58:44.439 by taking on the responsibility responsibility that's right now. 2158 01:58:46.199 --> 01:58:48.239 Well, it's the same thing as paying rent for people 2159 01:58:48.239 --> 01:58:50.960 who can't pay the rent, right, Yes, if I can't 2160 01:58:50.960 --> 01:58:52.479 pay the rent, I'm sure as hell can't afford to 2161 01:58:52.479 --> 01:58:54.399 pay to have my sidewalk replaced. 2162 01:58:54.079 --> 01:58:57.800 That's right. So it's, as you mentioned, it's a matter 2163 01:58:57.840 --> 01:59:00.279 of priorities. But it seems to me that we should 2164 01:59:00.279 --> 01:59:02.680 be tackling that four hundred million dollars before we take 2165 01:59:02.720 --> 01:59:05.760 on additional and it would it would be about two 2166 01:59:05.800 --> 01:59:08.119 million dollars if we were to fix If the city 2167 01:59:08.159 --> 01:59:11.439 were to fix every condemned sidewalk in the city, which 2168 01:59:11.600 --> 01:59:13.720 they say is about seven hundred and fifty a year, 2169 01:59:14.399 --> 01:59:17.119 it'd be about two million dollars a year. The average 2170 01:59:17.199 --> 01:59:20.800 cost they say for repairing sidewalks is twenty five hundred bucks. 2171 01:59:22.039 --> 01:59:26.319 All right. Let I mean, I guess a couple of 2172 01:59:26.439 --> 01:59:30.119 questions on that. They also have hundreds and hundreds of 2173 01:59:30.359 --> 01:59:32.720 road miles that they're supposed to be repairing each and 2174 01:59:32.800 --> 01:59:34.720 every year. They have the money that's supposed to be 2175 01:59:34.760 --> 01:59:37.399 allocated for that, but they don't stay on top of it. 2176 01:59:37.880 --> 01:59:40.840 They keep getting further and further behind. So even if 2177 01:59:40.880 --> 01:59:43.039 they said, all right, here's two million dollars we're going 2178 01:59:43.079 --> 01:59:45.800 to allocate toward repairing the sidewalks, that doesn't mean that 2179 01:59:45.800 --> 01:59:48.159 they're actually going to get repaired in any given calendar year. 2180 01:59:48.319 --> 01:59:50.920 That's right, Just like the extra money that we're going 2181 01:59:51.000 --> 01:59:53.199 to get for the rail sale, there's no guarantee that 2182 01:59:53.239 --> 01:59:56.000 they're going to have the capacity to spend it. I mean, 2183 01:59:56.079 --> 01:59:59.560 the city staff is only so big. They're contracting capabilities 2184 01:59:59.720 --> 02:00:02.520 or only so much. They can only do so much 2185 02:00:02.600 --> 02:00:06.359 in a period of time. And so the city council 2186 02:00:06.439 --> 02:00:09.359 member she wants to come in and add to their workload. 2187 02:00:09.760 --> 02:00:12.319 Even the city manager, she wrote a memo about all this. 2188 02:00:12.920 --> 02:00:14.840 Even she pointed out that, well, you know, if we 2189 02:00:15.000 --> 02:00:19.399 do this sidewalk repair program that these council members are 2190 02:00:19.439 --> 02:00:21.439 talking about we're not going to be able to do 2191 02:00:21.560 --> 02:00:23.800 the other part of our program, yes, or it's going 2192 02:00:23.840 --> 02:00:26.960 to impact our ability to do that. But the council 2193 02:00:27.000 --> 02:00:30.600 members don't care. They think that we have limited staff resources, 2194 02:00:30.760 --> 02:00:32.600 and they just pile it on. 2195 02:00:33.880 --> 02:00:36.640 Todd Zenzer shining a bright light on the I would 2196 02:00:36.760 --> 02:00:40.279 argue dysfunction since a city council and the mayor, well, 2197 02:00:40.479 --> 02:00:42.119 I'm not going to solve all these problems today, but 2198 02:00:42.199 --> 02:00:44.640 thankfully Todd has been identifying them. It seems to be 2199 02:00:44.720 --> 02:00:47.039 that some of them are rather easy to ident or 2200 02:00:47.119 --> 02:00:50.479 to fix if they prioritize properly and put aside their 2201 02:00:50.560 --> 02:00:52.600 pet projects behind the scenes that they seem to be 2202 02:00:52.680 --> 02:00:56.119 more broadly focused on. Todd, You're a blessing to our community. 2203 02:00:56.159 --> 02:00:57.439 I can't thank you nough for the work that you 2204 02:00:57.560 --> 02:01:01.159 do watching out for these things and reporting regularly on 2205 02:01:01.279 --> 02:01:05.720 your Facebook page and your Citizen Watchdog podcast.

That's where you find his campaign website. 2238 02:02:31.960 --> 02:02:34.319 He's also on Facebook. Before we get to what you're 2239 02:02:34.399 --> 02:02:36.880 running on as council and what your vision, excuse me, 2240 02:02:36.960 --> 02:02:39.319 your vision and your priorities are for the for the city. 2241 02:02:39.920 --> 02:02:43.439 In your role as a Clifton Community Council member, you 2242 02:02:43.520 --> 02:02:45.039 had a bit of a problem on your hands. I 2243 02:02:45.039 --> 02:02:49.760 guess it was this past Sunday, a late night with 2244 02:02:49.880 --> 02:02:54.199 our calling street takeover on Ludlow Avenue. Apparently more than 2245 02:02:54.279 --> 02:02:59.319 eighty people crowded street, blocking traffic, intimidating people and it 2246 02:02:59.399 --> 02:03:02.760 got kind of and so much so that my understanding 2247 02:03:02.880 --> 02:03:05.439 is the there was a fire truck that was trying 2248 02:03:05.479 --> 02:03:07.319 to get out. They couldn't get the fire truck out 2249 02:03:07.359 --> 02:03:10.279 to go on a run. That's kind of scary. This 2250 02:03:10.439 --> 02:03:13.039 came up in your your council meeting on Monday, did 2251 02:03:13.079 --> 02:03:15.079 it not correct? 2252 02:03:15.159 --> 02:03:17.239 So first of all, just for the record, I'm not 2253 02:03:17.399 --> 02:03:20.039 on Clifton Town meeting. I'm a member of the Clifton 2254 02:03:20.279 --> 02:03:24.560 Town Meeting. I'm a Clifton resident and along with but 2255 02:03:24.840 --> 02:03:27.000 I'm not one of the officers, but i can certainly 2256 02:03:27.079 --> 02:03:31.000 speak to the issue because I'm very I'm very well informed. 2257 02:03:31.199 --> 02:03:34.319 Of course, you are an actively involved, concerned citizen. That 2258 02:03:34.640 --> 02:03:36.760 qualifies you because concern. 2259 02:03:36.520 --> 02:03:38.319 And I'm a member and I'm a member of Clifton 2260 02:03:38.399 --> 02:03:41.640 Town Meeting. So so essentially let me start with some history. 2261 02:03:41.800 --> 02:03:45.600 So this particular business has been sort of a score 2262 02:03:45.680 --> 02:03:49.640 to the community for quite some time. It started in 2263 02:03:49.800 --> 02:03:56.640 fall of twenty three when Facebook posts have been posted 2264 02:03:57.119 --> 02:03:59.640 for after parties at this business of Hoogabar, so. 2265 02:04:00.000 --> 02:04:01.920 Talking about the Bohemian Hookah Cafe. 2266 02:04:03.319 --> 02:04:07.000 Correct, correct, So it started in the fall twenty three. 2267 02:04:07.159 --> 02:04:10.920 They were posting on the Facebook page after parties and 2268 02:04:11.000 --> 02:04:15.960 they first started indoor sort of non nondescript things, which 2269 02:04:16.079 --> 02:04:22.920 slowly turned into pouring into the outdoors and loud dancing 2270 02:04:23.079 --> 02:04:29.640 and disruption, which turned into selling alcohol and other things 2271 02:04:29.720 --> 02:04:33.880 out of the cars and just disruption. So you know, 2272 02:04:34.319 --> 02:04:38.760 over multiple occasions, CTM had reached out and also our 2273 02:04:38.840 --> 02:04:41.560 business district, we have a Business District association as well, 2274 02:04:42.439 --> 02:04:47.479 has engaged the police, has engaged City City Law Apartment. 2275 02:04:48.479 --> 02:04:51.399 They have cameras of it, they have video of it. 2276 02:04:52.920 --> 02:04:56.960 And each time that we've brought this to the attention, 2277 02:04:59.239 --> 02:05:02.439 you know, we can't prove anything. We can't we can't 2278 02:05:02.479 --> 02:05:08.640 identify people. So it's an ongoing thing. Which basically the 2279 02:05:08.760 --> 02:05:11.960 culmination of this was what happened over the fourth of 2280 02:05:12.039 --> 02:05:16.520 July weekend, which was one of these events, which was 2281 02:05:16.920 --> 02:05:23.039 probably extra escalated because it was a holiday. Eighty plus 2282 02:05:23.199 --> 02:05:26.720 people about three forty three thirty in the morning to 2283 02:05:26.840 --> 02:05:30.800 four o'clock in the morning, so July, you know, July 2284 02:05:30.960 --> 02:05:34.119 fifth into the sixth, and on Sunday, just the crowd 2285 02:05:34.199 --> 02:05:34.720 in the street. 2286 02:05:35.159 --> 02:05:35.840 It is true. 2287 02:05:37.000 --> 02:05:38.840 You know, we have our firehouse right there on the 2288 02:05:38.920 --> 02:05:40.920 on the street at the corner of Ludlow and Clifton, 2289 02:05:41.640 --> 02:05:44.760 and that was blocked that they couldn't get out. Police 2290 02:05:44.880 --> 02:05:48.239 showed up. They quickly realized that this is out of hand, 2291 02:05:49.159 --> 02:05:52.279 certainly I not. Tatoes were used and pepper balls were used, 2292 02:05:52.560 --> 02:05:55.000 and they realized that they didn't have enough people to 2293 02:05:55.119 --> 02:06:01.479 actually handle it. Calder backup, which was not readily imagine that. 2294 02:06:02.359 --> 02:06:08.520 So it escalated. There were arrests, there were guns, and 2295 02:06:08.640 --> 02:06:11.039 obviously could have been a lot worse. There was a 2296 02:06:11.119 --> 02:06:15.199 felony assault on an officer, and this could have been 2297 02:06:15.199 --> 02:06:16.880 a lot worse. There could have been a shooting, there 2298 02:06:16.880 --> 02:06:19.079 could have you know, who knows where that fire truck 2299 02:06:19.239 --> 02:06:22.199 was going. Where they going to someone's house that was 2300 02:06:22.239 --> 02:06:24.479 having an emergency. You know, we don't really know that 2301 02:06:24.600 --> 02:06:28.640 part of the story yet. So I mean, basically, this 2302 02:06:28.760 --> 02:06:31.079 is just sort of a culmination and and sort of 2303 02:06:31.119 --> 02:06:33.039 the pinnacle of what was what's been going on in 2304 02:06:33.039 --> 02:06:36.000 the neighborhood for a good part of almost two years. 2305 02:06:37.800 --> 02:06:40.239 And I think what really sort of surprises me is 2306 02:06:40.359 --> 02:06:44.039 I keep up on the news, and certainly I was 2307 02:06:44.079 --> 02:06:46.439 out of town actually when this was going on, but 2308 02:06:46.560 --> 02:06:52.039 it was shocked that this happened Sunday and I didn't 2309 02:06:52.079 --> 02:06:53.560 hear about this. No one heard about this un till 2310 02:06:53.680 --> 02:06:57.399 Tuesday when the news broke through through our business association CTM. 2311 02:06:57.800 --> 02:07:00.840 You know, why was this not it's brought out in 2312 02:07:00.920 --> 02:07:03.239 the news. I mean, this just happened in Blue ash, 2313 02:07:03.319 --> 02:07:04.720 which was all over the news. 2314 02:07:04.800 --> 02:07:05.560 Yeah, you're right, you. 2315 02:07:05.560 --> 02:07:07.600 Know how fing this was sort of swept under the rug, 2316 02:07:07.640 --> 02:07:09.920 and you know, I didn't even hear about it as 2317 02:07:09.960 --> 02:07:13.520 an involved neighbor until Tuesday when the news broke. 2318 02:07:14.680 --> 02:07:17.560 Yeah, well, we've had a real problem at least collectively 2319 02:07:17.640 --> 02:07:20.359 observing the reactions of Cincinna City Council and the mayor 2320 02:07:20.439 --> 02:07:22.319 to the lot of the violence that's going on. I mean, 2321 02:07:22.359 --> 02:07:25.159 this isn't the first gang of unruly people who've gathered 2322 02:07:25.199 --> 02:07:29.079 together in sufficient numbers to overwhelm the police. Silence seems 2323 02:07:29.079 --> 02:07:32.000 to be deafening for at least from the mayor's office 2324 02:07:32.039 --> 02:07:34.640 and from the council members. So maybe this is just 2325 02:07:34.680 --> 02:07:37.600 a concerted effort. It's bad for business, it's bad for marketing. 2326 02:07:37.680 --> 02:07:39.560 It makes the city look bad. It makes Clifton look 2327 02:07:39.600 --> 02:07:41.239 bad if we find out we got gangs of kids 2328 02:07:41.279 --> 02:07:43.520 that are showing up at three o'clock in the morning 2329 02:07:43.560 --> 02:07:45.720 outside of this hookah bar, partying in the street and 2330 02:07:46.479 --> 02:07:48.640 waving guns around, and maybe they just want to sleep 2331 02:07:48.680 --> 02:07:51.039 it under the rug. I'm left to speculate on that. Aaron, 2332 02:07:51.720 --> 02:07:55.960 But this bohemian hookah cafe, according to Channel nine, they're 2333 02:07:56.039 --> 02:07:59.720 open between four pm and four am every day, that 2334 02:08:00.399 --> 02:08:03.800 is past bar closure time. They're not a they don't 2335 02:08:03.800 --> 02:08:06.039 have a liquor license, but don't the bars in the 2336 02:08:06.279 --> 02:08:08.199 in the Clifton area and your community close at two 2337 02:08:08.199 --> 02:08:09.000 o'clock in the morning. 2338 02:08:10.279 --> 02:08:13.479 That's correct. That's correct. I mean I think some actually 2339 02:08:13.520 --> 02:08:16.560 might can close earlier, depending on the traffic that that 2340 02:08:16.640 --> 02:08:17.560 they received that night. 2341 02:08:17.720 --> 02:08:21.800 Sure, So the Bohemian Huko Cafe not having a liquor license, 2342 02:08:21.880 --> 02:08:24.000 but apparently drawing the attention of a bunch of people 2343 02:08:24.079 --> 02:08:25.800 that want to hang out there. That's how you end 2344 02:08:25.920 --> 02:08:29.279 up having alcohol being sold out of cars because it's 2345 02:08:29.319 --> 02:08:32.000 past bar open time. But if there's an opportunity to 2346 02:08:32.039 --> 02:08:33.760 make a little money and people are going to continue 2347 02:08:33.760 --> 02:08:36.199 to want to drink, that's obviously that's going to happen, 2348 02:08:36.279 --> 02:08:40.039 or at least seems logical that it's happening. That's correct. 2349 02:08:40.079 --> 02:08:41.960 It's an attractive nuisance. Realize what it is. 2350 02:08:42.399 --> 02:08:45.000 So are they going to close down? I saw that 2351 02:08:45.199 --> 02:08:50.720 the reporting indicated that the owner of the establishment's building 2352 02:08:50.960 --> 02:08:54.760 is trying to evict the Bohemian Huka Cafe as the 2353 02:08:54.800 --> 02:08:57.560 city helped along those lines. Have they been identified as 2354 02:08:57.600 --> 02:09:00.920 a nuisance business yet? Are we moving in that direction? 2355 02:09:02.319 --> 02:09:06.319 As far as far as I know, that has not 2356 02:09:07.039 --> 02:09:11.399 been identified and that that's not been part of that equation. No, 2357 02:09:11.680 --> 02:09:16.039 I mean, I think certainly the landlord has has recourse 2358 02:09:16.159 --> 02:09:22.279 with their own process. But as far as we're Stardline'm concerned, 2359 02:09:22.359 --> 02:09:24.760 there really has not been much of an effort yet 2360 02:09:24.880 --> 02:09:25.439 through the city. 2361 02:09:25.920 --> 02:09:28.680 All right, Well, now that it's made the news eron 2362 02:09:28.800 --> 02:09:30.800 and it's and you obviously have been aware of it 2363 02:09:30.960 --> 02:09:33.199 living in the neighborhood. You've talked about the videos that 2364 02:09:33.239 --> 02:09:35.119 have been shown to the police in the past and all, 2365 02:09:35.159 --> 02:09:38.000 we can't identify who that is, but that doesn't suggest 2366 02:09:38.079 --> 02:09:41.199 that it isn't happening. Look, there's the crowd of people. 2367 02:09:41.359 --> 02:09:43.640 I know, we can't figure out who's in that crowd, 2368 02:09:43.720 --> 02:09:47.680 but look what's going on all the time. It seems 2369 02:09:47.680 --> 02:09:49.439 to me the natural reaction will be to post they 2370 02:09:49.479 --> 02:09:52.960 have a broader, larger police presence right there outside of 2371 02:09:52.960 --> 02:09:56.720 the hookah bar to keep people from congregating and engaging 2372 02:09:56.720 --> 02:09:57.720 in this kind of activity. 2373 02:09:59.399 --> 02:10:02.640 I mean, I think that would crotinly be helpful. And 2374 02:10:02.800 --> 02:10:05.680 certainly in the past we have you know, they've certainly gone, 2375 02:10:05.840 --> 02:10:07.920 but they just say they can't they can't prove it, 2376 02:10:08.000 --> 02:10:11.760 they can't find you know, what they're doing driven by before. 2377 02:10:11.840 --> 02:10:14.039 But again, I mean, I think certainly that the presence 2378 02:10:14.199 --> 02:10:19.520 would there's no substitute for an act of deterrence, and 2379 02:10:19.600 --> 02:10:22.279 that's that's having the police presence, you know, during during the. 2380 02:10:22.319 --> 02:10:26.760 Situation, all right, And what is concerning about this is 2381 02:10:26.840 --> 02:10:30.159 that maybe the most logical and simplest solution just get 2382 02:10:30.199 --> 02:10:32.880 a whole bunch more officers up there to keep them 2383 02:10:32.920 --> 02:10:35.880 from engaging in criminal activity otherwise blocking the street to 2384 02:10:35.960 --> 02:10:39.479 the fire department. But as you pointed out, the police 2385 02:10:39.560 --> 02:10:43.399 that were there appreciated that they were overwhelmed by the numbers, 2386 02:10:43.520 --> 02:10:47.520 were probably afraid given the number of people there, called 2387 02:10:47.600 --> 02:10:50.840 for backup, which wasn't immediately available. So we run into 2388 02:10:50.920 --> 02:10:53.680 that problem all the time, Aaron. The police are already 2389 02:10:53.720 --> 02:10:57.000 working multiple overtime hours. They're short staff. I think they're 2390 02:10:57.039 --> 02:10:59.279 down one hundred and fifty plus. They've got more people 2391 02:10:59.359 --> 02:11:01.920 every day who are announcing early retirement. I talked to 2392 02:11:02.560 --> 02:11:05.119 the FLP president about on the program earlier this week, 2393 02:11:05.199 --> 02:11:07.520 and that's a frightening thing. And I know part of 2394 02:11:07.560 --> 02:11:11.119 your campaign plan for running for CINCINNY City Council is, 2395 02:11:11.359 --> 02:11:15.199 you know, expanding the number of officers and increasing the classes. 2396 02:11:15.279 --> 02:11:19.840 But that's that takes a while to accomplish. So we're 2397 02:11:19.880 --> 02:11:22.439 dealing with the real police shortage here. Is really what 2398 02:11:22.520 --> 02:11:24.920 this comes down to. Correct. 2399 02:11:25.079 --> 02:11:29.840 Correct, My understanding is we're about nine hundred and change 2400 02:11:30.399 --> 02:11:33.439 and we should be about twelve hundred and change to 2401 02:11:33.840 --> 02:11:36.880 sort of meet the requirements for three of our size. 2402 02:11:38.359 --> 02:11:40.000 Well that's a huge gap. 2403 02:11:40.760 --> 02:11:42.840 Aaron, you want to talk about your campaign, we'll bring 2404 02:11:42.920 --> 02:11:45.319 you back and dive on into some of the platform 2405 02:11:45.359 --> 02:11:49.800 you're running on. Aaron Winer, that's correct. Let's thank you. 2406 02:11:49.960 --> 02:11:52.359 So let's do that. So pause, let's pause, which I 2407 02:11:52.399 --> 02:11:54.520 mean I'm at break time. So I'll bring you back 2408 02:11:55.000 --> 02:11:56.920 and we'll dive on maybe a little bit more of this, 2409 02:11:57.159 --> 02:12:00.119 but also your platform for since any city count so 2410 02:12:00.159 --> 02:12:02.239 lord knows, we could use a refreshing change. And Aaron 2411 02:12:02.279 --> 02:12:04.760 may very well be that guy age fifteen right now, 2412 02:12:04.760 --> 02:12:06.600 I fifty five k see the talk station. Let me 2413 02:12:06.640 --> 02:12:10.199 first mentioned cover sincy, the phone call that you should make, 2414 02:12:10.399 --> 02:12:12.560 phone call that won't cost you anything, the phone call 2415 02:12:12.600 --> 02:12:14.560 that won't oblige you to do anything, a phone call 2416 02:12:14.600 --> 02:12:18.239 that will result and cover sincy. Looking at you your situation, 2417 02:12:18.479 --> 02:12:20.600 maybe your family's on your medical insurance, but it's all 2418 02:12:20.600 --> 02:12:23.159 about medical insurance and you probably got one of those 2419 02:12:23.239 --> 02:12:25.560 plans or your employer. It's one size fits, although it 2420 02:12:25.640 --> 02:12:27.800 really does, and lots and lots and lots of holes 2421 02:12:27.840 --> 02:12:30.199 in the bucket massive out of pocket liability, most notably 2422 02:12:30.199 --> 02:12:33.680 if you're, like on Obamacare, looking at ten thousand dollars 2423 02:12:33.760 --> 02:12:35.720 out of pocket next year. Oh and by the way, 2424 02:12:35.800 --> 02:12:39.000 that tax credit it goes away if you make more 2425 02:12:39.039 --> 02:12:41.399 than sixty four grand in the next calendar years. So 2426 02:12:41.439 --> 02:12:43.239 if you're operating with the tax credit, which is what 2427 02:12:43.319 --> 02:12:46.239 makes it affordable, you need to talk to John Roulman. 2428 02:12:46.640 --> 02:12:50.239 He is your broker, working with hundreds of insurance companies 2429 02:12:50.279 --> 02:12:52.680 across the table from you and John and his team 2430 02:12:53.520 --> 02:12:56.159 they're not beholding to any one of them. They have 2431 02:12:56.279 --> 02:12:58.920 an allegation to you to sift through all of the 2432 02:12:59.119 --> 02:13:01.880 thousands of available policies and find out one that best 2433 02:13:02.039 --> 02:13:05.039 suits your needs, needs which can change over time. So 2434 02:13:05.199 --> 02:13:06.560 John on the team to look at where you are, 2435 02:13:06.680 --> 02:13:08.600 what you've got, come up with a better solution, one 2436 02:13:08.640 --> 02:13:11.640 that'll provide dollar one coverage in many many cases where 2437 02:13:11.680 --> 02:13:14.600 you don't have it, and will cost you less. Can 2438 02:13:14.640 --> 02:13:18.840 you imagine that better medical insurance, less money? Does it 2439 02:13:19.039 --> 02:13:23.039 every single day and to great satisfaction. The listeners that 2440 02:13:23.079 --> 02:13:24.600 have gotten in touch with John and the team have 2441 02:13:24.720 --> 02:13:27.760 been really happy. I get a lot of emails and 2442 02:13:27.800 --> 02:13:31.479 communications about how much how the financial bottom line in 2443 02:13:31.520 --> 02:13:33.800 the medical coverage is better. So call them up, let 2444 02:13:33.880 --> 02:13:35.319 them do the analysis for you. Let them come up 2445 02:13:35.319 --> 02:13:37.079 with a better way. Five one three eight hundred call 2446 02:13:37.199 --> 02:13:39.479 that's five one three eight hundred two two five five. 2447 02:13:39.880 --> 02:13:41.920 There's a form online you can fill out.

Aaron, what of your priorities? And 2460 02:14:17.600 --> 02:14:20.560 I appreciate your priorities public safety and law enforcement. Along 2461 02:14:20.600 --> 02:14:23.399 the lines of what we've been talking about youth violence 2462 02:14:23.439 --> 02:14:26.199 and crime prevention. Quite often these roving gangs include a 2463 02:14:26.199 --> 02:14:29.119 bunch of underage young people. How they are out in 2464 02:14:29.439 --> 02:14:31.079 how they get away with being out at three o'clock 2465 02:14:31.079 --> 02:14:33.119 in the morning, That to me seems a family issue. 2466 02:14:33.239 --> 02:14:37.039 But we do have a curfew. And one thing I 2467 02:14:37.159 --> 02:14:39.880 learned from the FOP president other's on law enforcement. They 2468 02:14:39.920 --> 02:14:42.720 don't even bother picking them up for truancy violations because 2469 02:14:43.199 --> 02:14:45.720 nothing is ever done. There's no room at the inn 2470 02:14:45.760 --> 02:14:49.359 in terms of locking them up overnight, and the judicial 2471 02:14:49.439 --> 02:14:52.880 system usually just dismisses the case outright, just no done, 2472 02:14:52.920 --> 02:14:55.159 We're gonna let him go. So how do we solve 2473 02:14:55.279 --> 02:14:58.199 that problem? Because that's a critical leg of the criminal 2474 02:14:58.399 --> 02:15:01.640 justice system is unishment. It acts as a deterrence to 2475 02:15:01.720 --> 02:15:03.399 others they know they're going to get in trouble if 2476 02:15:03.399 --> 02:15:06.039 they do something, and it also punishes the person who 2477 02:15:06.119 --> 02:15:08.720 broke the law. If you take that out, I say, 2478 02:15:08.720 --> 02:15:11.520 you basically destroyed the concept of law enforcement. 2479 02:15:12.960 --> 02:15:15.159 Correct, correct? So I mean I think first of all, 2480 02:15:15.159 --> 02:15:18.359 it starts by by saying that unfortunately, we can't parent 2481 02:15:18.439 --> 02:15:19.279 everyone's child. 2482 02:15:19.640 --> 02:15:20.359 And I think it does. 2483 02:15:20.520 --> 02:15:23.560 It does, it does start it in the home, and 2484 02:15:23.680 --> 02:15:26.720 there's certainly there's certainly lots of nuances to that. 2485 02:15:26.920 --> 02:15:27.800 But I do agree with you. 2486 02:15:28.520 --> 02:15:31.079 I think we need we can't have law as if 2487 02:15:31.119 --> 02:15:34.880 we don't enforce them. I mean, truancy is an important 2488 02:15:34.920 --> 02:15:37.680 part of that, and I think that should be followed 2489 02:15:37.760 --> 02:15:40.239 up on. And it starts and it starts there. I mean, 2490 02:15:40.319 --> 02:15:45.199 if it's if you start catching things early, it prevents 2491 02:15:45.279 --> 02:15:48.840 things that happen later, and I think it does. It 2492 02:15:48.920 --> 02:15:51.840 does boil down to consequences. I think, you know, growing up, 2493 02:15:51.880 --> 02:15:55.520 we learned that if if if you did act, then 2494 02:15:55.640 --> 02:15:56.439 why could happen? 2495 02:15:56.560 --> 02:15:58.439 Absolutely and why why. 2496 02:15:58.359 --> 02:16:00.920 Could that could be the worst case possible. 2497 02:16:01.399 --> 02:16:04.960 So we learned that we just didn't do that. 2498 02:16:05.159 --> 02:16:07.319 Or you know, if we got away with it once, great, 2499 02:16:07.439 --> 02:16:09.359 but it probably won't happen again. 2500 02:16:09.479 --> 02:16:15.479 No, just thinking of my day my late father and 2501 02:16:15.640 --> 02:16:17.960 mother or my mom is still with those But yeah, 2502 02:16:18.359 --> 02:16:21.000 they did not abide this kind of behavior. Period. If 2503 02:16:21.079 --> 02:16:22.640 they found me that I was at at three o'clock 2504 02:16:22.680 --> 02:16:24.880 in the morning hanging out with a gang, uh and 2505 02:16:25.239 --> 02:16:27.680 maybe getting perhaps of being a victim of a drive 2506 02:16:27.720 --> 02:16:29.920 by shooting, Trust me, there would be hell to pay 2507 02:16:30.079 --> 02:16:30.880 in my house. 2508 02:16:32.200 --> 02:16:35.440 Right absolutely, and again it's not. It's not that I'm 2509 02:16:35.520 --> 02:16:37.319 not for I mean, I know that some of the 2510 02:16:37.399 --> 02:16:39.440 things that we're doing in the city or are providing 2511 02:16:39.520 --> 02:16:43.280 programs and so forth, and it's not that I'm against that. 2512 02:16:44.360 --> 02:16:46.760 I do think, you know, certain certain programs that are 2513 02:16:46.799 --> 02:16:50.200 doing are good. But that's really not that's a social problem. 2514 02:16:50.280 --> 02:16:52.360 That's not that's that's that's a social fix, that's not 2515 02:16:52.440 --> 02:16:55.079 a law enforcement fix. So while I m for some 2516 02:16:55.200 --> 02:16:57.520 of that, it's not it's not it's not the solution. 2517 02:16:58.879 --> 02:17:01.079 It's certainly in certainly kids do need things to do. 2518 02:17:01.319 --> 02:17:03.799 You know, we can't go to King's Island anymore under 2519 02:17:03.799 --> 02:17:05.520 a certainty, So I get it. There's you know, there's 2520 02:17:05.920 --> 02:17:08.239 there's things that I could have done as a kid 2521 02:17:08.319 --> 02:17:10.520 that maybe people can't do now. So I totally get that. 2522 02:17:10.639 --> 02:17:13.079 But still it does it does boil down to if 2523 02:17:13.440 --> 02:17:15.479 X happens, then why will happen as well? And I 2524 02:17:15.559 --> 02:17:19.600 do think we did need to take take this seriously 2525 02:17:19.959 --> 02:17:24.520 and actually have consequences. And you know, you know, the 2526 02:17:24.639 --> 02:17:28.639 magistrates can't just release someone back if they've gotten to trouble. 2527 02:17:28.879 --> 02:17:31.479 Let's let's let's have a plan on that that does 2528 02:17:31.600 --> 02:17:36.159 have some consequences. Does take away some freedoms for a while. Yeah, 2529 02:17:36.319 --> 02:17:38.600 and hopefully that curbs the problem. 2530 02:17:39.520 --> 02:17:42.000 Another thing I see on your list of priorities, and 2531 02:17:42.079 --> 02:17:43.399 this is going to put a small lot of my 2532 02:17:43.520 --> 02:17:47.399 listeners faces repealing connected communities ran into this. It's as 2533 02:17:47.440 --> 02:17:50.120 if the city council does not care about the local 2534 02:17:50.319 --> 02:17:52.040 nature of the different neighborhoods that are in the city 2535 02:17:52.079 --> 02:17:55.920 of Cincinnati. We saw this unfold with bond Hill Hyde Park. 2536 02:17:56.319 --> 02:18:00.200 They first shove connected communities as a zoning concept on 2537 02:18:00.479 --> 02:18:03.680 all of the neighborhoods without consulting them and regardless of 2538 02:18:03.680 --> 02:18:05.600 whether or not they were interested in it, and then 2539 02:18:05.799 --> 02:18:09.319 offer waivers to connected developers like in Hyde Park to 2540 02:18:09.440 --> 02:18:12.639 go outside of connected communities and build whatever it is 2541 02:18:12.719 --> 02:18:14.239 these developers. 2542 02:18:14.319 --> 02:18:14.440 One. 2543 02:18:14.520 --> 02:18:15.959 Now, that's going to be at least on the ballot 2544 02:18:16.040 --> 02:18:17.159 this fall, and I think there are going to be 2545 02:18:17.200 --> 02:18:18.760 a lot of people voting in favor of that. But 2546 02:18:18.840 --> 02:18:21.360 you'd just like to repeal the whole connecting community's concept. 2547 02:18:23.000 --> 02:18:27.079 Correct. Well, let me start with the genesis of my campaign, 2548 02:18:27.200 --> 02:18:30.040 which is very much in line with what you've just said, 2549 02:18:30.159 --> 02:18:33.159 is that I'm sitting here right now in my office 2550 02:18:33.520 --> 02:18:37.719 on Hyde Park Square and I've been My business has 2551 02:18:37.719 --> 02:18:41.479 been here for over twenty years, and my particular office 2552 02:18:41.639 --> 02:18:45.760 is part of that, at the center of the controversial development. 2553 02:18:46.120 --> 02:18:49.920 And that's sort of what has I think about Rerny 2554 02:18:49.959 --> 02:18:51.639 for cos Council for a long time. But that's sort 2555 02:18:51.680 --> 02:18:55.440 of what catapulted me into jumping into the race, because 2556 02:18:55.479 --> 02:18:57.680 all of a sudden, I became a stakeholder in this 2557 02:18:57.840 --> 02:19:02.440 in this this large issues, so to get to get 2558 02:19:02.520 --> 02:19:07.280 back to connected communities. And obviously I'm in real estate, 2559 02:19:07.440 --> 02:19:11.600 so I'm sitting in my real estate office. I'm for development. 2560 02:19:11.879 --> 02:19:15.600 I've been around for all the genres of development in Cincinnati, 2561 02:19:15.680 --> 02:19:19.000 from when they were building the comments of the in 2562 02:19:19.079 --> 02:19:23.280 the Central Business District to Gate Recorder to OTR to 2563 02:19:23.360 --> 02:19:26.159 Main Street to Walla Hill. I've been involved in all 2564 02:19:26.200 --> 02:19:29.879 of them. I'm for development right. What I'm against are 2565 02:19:29.879 --> 02:19:33.799 a couple things. The first thing is, you know we 2566 02:19:33.959 --> 02:19:36.639 have we are a unique city of hill of Hills 2567 02:19:36.680 --> 02:19:40.399 and the River. To have a one size fits all 2568 02:19:40.600 --> 02:19:44.399 brushstroke across the city does not make sense to me. 2569 02:19:44.680 --> 02:19:46.200 If you get in your car and you drive from 2570 02:19:46.280 --> 02:19:50.440 College Hill down the North Side and in the Clifton 2571 02:19:50.520 --> 02:19:55.799 and each neighborhood has different needs, So why would we 2572 02:19:56.239 --> 02:19:58.479 have a brushstroke across the whole city? Is a one 2573 02:19:58.559 --> 02:20:02.479 size fits all, you know. Getting getting back to Clifton, 2574 02:20:02.520 --> 02:20:06.120 where this where this whole incident happened, we were talking about. 2575 02:20:06.559 --> 02:20:08.239 You know, one of the things we didn't talk about 2576 02:20:08.319 --> 02:20:12.680 is there's apartment buildings all around there that are getting 2577 02:20:13.000 --> 02:20:15.639 that we're involved. There's density in Clifton. 2578 02:20:15.719 --> 02:20:16.120 Oh yeah. 2579 02:20:16.200 --> 02:20:18.680 But my point is My point is is that each 2580 02:20:18.879 --> 02:20:23.719 neighborhood has their own needs. So to just put a 2581 02:20:23.799 --> 02:20:28.600 breaststroke across the entire city, to me without consideration of 2582 02:20:28.639 --> 02:20:32.280 the individual needs of the community, with with with bad legislation, 2583 02:20:32.360 --> 02:20:35.079 Which is another reason why I wanted to use my 2584 02:20:35.239 --> 02:20:39.639 experience as a real tour to have these discussions about 2585 02:20:39.760 --> 02:20:43.000 development and these touch issues and be the adult in 2586 02:20:43.120 --> 02:20:44.920 the in the room that's we're discussing them. Because I 2587 02:20:45.000 --> 02:20:46.680 believe in the city and I want to make sure 2588 02:20:46.680 --> 02:20:50.000 that we preserve the architecture. There's a reason why fifty 2589 02:20:50.120 --> 02:20:51.879 movies have been filmed in since and now you're over 2590 02:20:51.920 --> 02:20:54.440 the last several years, over the last many years. It's 2591 02:20:54.479 --> 02:20:57.559 our architecture, it's our character, you know, that's an asset we. 2592 02:20:57.559 --> 02:21:00.799 Need to product. Aaron wer speaking my line. I appreciate 2593 02:21:00.879 --> 02:21:03.760 what you have to say.

As always, 2652 02:23:52.879 --> 02:23:54.799 welcome back my friend Jay ratl If. It's good to 2653 02:23:54.840 --> 02:23:55.440 have you on the show. 2654 02:23:56.239 --> 02:23:57.440 Very pleasant. Good morning, my friend. 2655 02:23:57.719 --> 02:23:59.639 Uh new term. I lard You know, I always look 2656 02:23:59.680 --> 02:24:01.479 for AVA news before you come on, although you do 2657 02:24:01.559 --> 02:24:03.639 have enough topics to fill up all the time this morning, 2658 02:24:04.280 --> 02:24:07.760 Ale Louse, yep, do you know who that is? 2659 02:24:08.639 --> 02:24:09.200 You go ahead. 2660 02:24:09.639 --> 02:24:11.680 It is one of those people who, as soon as 2661 02:24:11.719 --> 02:24:14.799 the plane lands and is taxing, jumps up out of 2662 02:24:14.840 --> 02:24:17.040 the seat and runs to the front of the plane 2663 02:24:17.079 --> 02:24:19.000 so they can be the first off even if they're 2664 02:24:19.399 --> 02:24:22.719 way behind. Unlike the normal way we all deboard the plane, 2665 02:24:22.760 --> 02:24:24.600 which is the people up front go out first and 2666 02:24:24.680 --> 02:24:27.520 we gradually follow suit behind them as our aisle shows up. 2667 02:24:28.040 --> 02:24:32.280 Ale Louse, well, we've talked about we've talked about gate life, 2668 02:24:32.680 --> 02:24:35.319 the people that try to be bored early, so we 2669 02:24:35.479 --> 02:24:39.120 love giving people unofficially, this didn't come for me kind 2670 02:24:39.159 --> 02:24:41.639 of term. And yeah, I've seen people in the rear 2671 02:24:41.680 --> 02:24:45.680 of the aircraft that literally will knock people over. Yeah. Yeah, 2672 02:24:45.719 --> 02:24:47.000 they're trying to get thrown on the airplane. 2673 02:24:47.040 --> 02:24:47.159 Now. 2674 02:24:47.639 --> 02:24:50.879 I understand sometimes if the flights late, and sometimes the 2675 02:24:50.920 --> 02:24:52.760 flight attendant say, look, we've got people here was a 2676 02:24:52.879 --> 02:24:55.479 nine minute connection. Let's try to give them a head start. 2677 02:24:56.000 --> 02:24:59.479 But I also recognize that we're in position to control 2678 02:24:59.520 --> 02:25:02.200 a lot of it. And if I've got a tight 2679 02:25:02.239 --> 02:25:05.239 connection in Atlanta or Dallas or Chicago, the last thing 2680 02:25:05.280 --> 02:25:07.239 I'm going to do is sit in row thirty one. 2681 02:25:07.520 --> 02:25:10.000 It's not going to happen. If I can, I'm going 2682 02:25:10.040 --> 02:25:13.040 to get an exit row, or we get those sharing 2683 02:25:13.040 --> 02:25:16.200 al fly with the Delta non refundable first class tickets. 2684 02:25:16.559 --> 02:25:18.719 We'll be up front. So I'm going to get as 2685 02:25:18.799 --> 02:25:21.799 close to that forward door as I can because there's 2686 02:25:21.840 --> 02:25:24.440 a ten minute lag between the time that door opens 2687 02:25:24.440 --> 02:25:26.760 and the last person comes off the airplane, sometimes more 2688 02:25:26.840 --> 02:25:29.319 than that, and on a tight connection, you need every 2689 02:25:29.440 --> 02:25:33.239 minute you can get. But yeah, the more people do that, 2690 02:25:33.799 --> 02:25:35.760 you know, shooting up the aisle, the more that people 2691 02:25:35.840 --> 02:25:37.360 just kind of stand up and get out of their 2692 02:25:37.600 --> 02:25:40.959 or getting their way, not to be mean, but simply 2693 02:25:41.319 --> 02:25:44.879 to say, let's just wait your turn, because you've got 2694 02:25:44.920 --> 02:25:47.520 other people that have tight connections as well. But for 2695 02:25:47.639 --> 02:25:50.840 some strange reason, Brian, they it's all about me, and 2696 02:25:50.959 --> 02:25:52.600 I don't care what other people think of me, And 2697 02:25:53.079 --> 02:25:54.920 sadly some people think I'm never going to see these 2698 02:25:54.920 --> 02:25:56.799 people again. So if I act like a horse's ass, 2699 02:25:56.879 --> 02:25:57.440 in front of them. 2700 02:25:57.639 --> 02:26:02.000 It's no big deal, right, societal break down, let's see. Well, 2701 02:26:02.040 --> 02:26:03.399 at the risk of running over a little bit. I 2702 02:26:03.399 --> 02:26:04.920 don't know how much attention we have to dive on 2703 02:26:05.040 --> 02:26:06.959 into it, but I did see the announcement. I think 2704 02:26:06.959 --> 02:26:10.280 most of my listeners did that. The TSA has announced 2705 02:26:10.319 --> 02:26:12.440 that they're not going to require you to remove your shoes. 2706 02:26:12.479 --> 02:26:14.280 So you're probably going to get to your gate a 2707 02:26:14.319 --> 02:26:16.120 little bit earlier now without that headache. 2708 02:26:16.719 --> 02:26:18.639 Well, your feet are going to be cleaner because you 2709 02:26:18.719 --> 02:26:22.000 want to walk across that dirty floor to put your 2710 02:26:22.040 --> 02:26:24.079 shoes back on, which is always especially in the summer 2711 02:26:24.159 --> 02:26:27.200 with people wearing sandals, flip flops, different kinds of things 2712 02:26:27.239 --> 02:26:30.799 as well, those floors can be fill see. Yes, I 2713 02:26:30.879 --> 02:26:32.040 was glad to see it. We've been doing it for 2714 02:26:32.079 --> 02:26:34.840 twenty years. But Brian, remember we did that because the 2715 02:26:34.920 --> 02:26:38.040 old magnetometers had a dead spot at the bottom and 2716 02:26:38.200 --> 02:26:40.959 the very top, so that if somebody kind of shuffled 2717 02:26:41.000 --> 02:26:43.040 their feet through and they had something in their shoes, 2718 02:26:43.040 --> 02:26:44.120 it wouldn't pick. 2719 02:26:43.959 --> 02:26:45.399 It up like the shoe bomber guy. 2720 02:26:46.120 --> 02:26:47.959 That's it. So the thought was, but you know, our 2721 02:26:48.040 --> 02:26:50.360 technology has gotten better, and they're saying, look, there's really 2722 02:26:50.399 --> 02:26:53.399 no reason need to do it, although they can always 2723 02:26:53.479 --> 02:26:56.200 pull us out and do random or secondary screening where 2724 02:26:56.280 --> 02:26:58.079 they may ask for our shoes to come off, and 2725 02:26:58.079 --> 02:27:01.680 they'll continue to do that random. But yeah, this is 2726 02:27:01.719 --> 02:27:03.600 going to speed things up quite a bit. And yeah, 2727 02:27:03.680 --> 02:27:05.760 I think it was it was the right move. 2728 02:27:06.319 --> 02:27:08.680 Fair enough, We'll bring Jay Ratler back talk about some 2729 02:27:08.760 --> 02:27:10.959 other topics. Got some interesting ones on the list this morning. 2730 02:27:10.959 --> 02:27:12.799 It's eight thirty five right now, fifty five k S 2731 02:27:12.920 --> 02:27:17.239 detalk station Channa on the forecast, sunny day to day, 2732 02:27:17.360 --> 02:27:20.040 maybe some isolated showers or storms later.

They're also saying ninety one will be the 2738 02:27:34.079 --> 02:27:36.040 high seventy three. Now. Traffic times. 2739 02:27:37.559 --> 02:27:39.959 From the u SEE Health Traffic Center.

You're still stopping go because 2745 02:27:56.680 --> 02:27:59.600 of an accident seventy five South ound at Fort Washington Way. 2746 02:28:00.120 --> 02:28:03.600 The two right lanes are blocked. I'm Heather Pasco on 2747 02:28:03.760 --> 02:28:06.000 fifty five KARC the talk station. 2748 02:28:06.959 --> 02:28:08.319 Have you ever been in the cockpit before? 2749 02:28:09.079 --> 02:28:09.239 Jay? 2750 02:28:09.319 --> 02:28:12.760 Has Jay Ray left? I heard me the aviation expert 2751 02:28:12.840 --> 02:28:15.159 diving through the topics. I had a special request Jay 2752 02:28:16.120 --> 02:28:19.200 the current status and I don't think they've released the report, Todavid, 2753 02:28:19.239 --> 02:28:21.319 have you heard any updates on Air India Flight one 2754 02:28:21.440 --> 02:28:23.479 seventy one. They just sort of took off and then 2755 02:28:23.639 --> 02:28:25.120 just crashed right away. 2756 02:28:26.040 --> 02:28:28.239 We've not and normally we have a briefing by now, 2757 02:28:28.479 --> 02:28:31.719 but it's a little bit tardy. Apparently the report is 2758 02:28:32.079 --> 02:28:36.079 out there and we should be updated anytime. So still 2759 02:28:36.159 --> 02:28:38.559 kind of waiting to see what that preliminary report is 2760 02:28:39.040 --> 02:28:41.760 going to indicate, And of course some of that will 2761 02:28:41.840 --> 02:28:44.319 reflect some of the initial data gleaned off the two 2762 02:28:44.360 --> 02:28:47.280 black boxes, yeah, voice recorder and the flight data recorder, 2763 02:28:47.360 --> 02:28:50.440 and that's going to be very very interesting to see 2764 02:28:50.479 --> 02:28:53.639 what we find out from there and kind of get 2765 02:28:53.680 --> 02:28:57.120 an idea of the direction that the investigation could be taking. 2766 02:28:57.360 --> 02:29:01.760 So yeah, nothing yet, but very anxious, and I'm hoping, 2767 02:29:01.840 --> 02:29:04.600 obviously long before we talk again, we'll have some of 2768 02:29:04.639 --> 02:29:06.440 those details if you need me before Thursday. 2769 02:29:06.479 --> 02:29:09.319 Always asks, Oh, that's wonderful, very kind of you to offer, 2770 02:29:09.319 --> 02:29:11.840 and that may very well happen, all right, moving forward, 2771 02:29:11.840 --> 02:29:14.479 and these things do take time. I appreciate that they're 2772 02:29:14.520 --> 02:29:19.479 not hasty to release any conclusions before they have something 2773 02:29:19.520 --> 02:29:20.920 to hang their hat on, or at least to reach 2774 02:29:20.959 --> 02:29:24.639 a reasonable conclusion. So over to British airways. One of 2775 02:29:24.639 --> 02:29:26.680 the reasons I hate air travel is the idea that 2776 02:29:26.760 --> 02:29:29.520 I'm sitting on a plane on the tarmac and it's 2777 02:29:29.600 --> 02:29:32.440 not moving. It drives me crazy, Jay, It's like, I'm stuck. 2778 02:29:32.520 --> 02:29:35.920 Why aren't we going somewhere. There's no way I could 2779 02:29:36.000 --> 02:29:38.559 maintain my composure without a healthy dose of some kind 2780 02:29:38.559 --> 02:29:43.479 of pharmaceutical in a seven hour delay under that circumstance. 2781 02:29:43.559 --> 02:29:45.319 What's the story on this British airway thing? 2782 02:29:46.360 --> 02:29:47.559 First of all, do you still do you have that 2783 02:29:47.639 --> 02:29:49.600 same feeling when you're on the interstate going nowhere? In 2784 02:29:49.840 --> 02:29:50.799 the high speed lane. 2785 02:29:50.799 --> 02:29:53.760 You're just, yeah, that usually only kicks in if I 2786 02:29:53.840 --> 02:29:55.079 really have to use the restroom. 2787 02:29:57.440 --> 02:29:59.239 Well, you know, the good news is you could have 2788 02:29:59.360 --> 02:30:01.799 used the restroom on this British Airways flight. They were 2789 02:30:01.840 --> 02:30:06.639 going from London over to the UK over to Poland, 2790 02:30:07.000 --> 02:30:09.799 and what happened. They boarded everybody, they're getting ready to leave, 2791 02:30:09.879 --> 02:30:13.120 and they had a fuse in the flight deck that 2792 02:30:13.600 --> 02:30:17.559 controlled the air conditioning that kicked out, so they had 2793 02:30:17.559 --> 02:30:19.639 to call them mechanics. That's okay, it's an easy fix, 2794 02:30:20.200 --> 02:30:23.559 and they wanted to replace the fuse so they could 2795 02:30:23.559 --> 02:30:26.399 get the air conditioning system back up and running. So 2796 02:30:26.520 --> 02:30:30.159 they waited a bit, got up there, replaced the fuse. 2797 02:30:30.440 --> 02:30:34.280 It tripped again, so they're thinking, okay, now you've got 2798 02:30:34.520 --> 02:30:37.639 a full plane of passengers. Yeah, that could take forty 2799 02:30:37.719 --> 02:30:41.360 five minutes to an hour to board. So the obvious 2800 02:30:41.440 --> 02:30:45.639 thought is based on previous issues with this exact same component. 2801 02:30:45.879 --> 02:30:48.360 It's a pretty easy fix, so you would never get 2802 02:30:48.440 --> 02:30:51.399 everybody off the plane, fix it and then wait an 2803 02:30:51.440 --> 02:30:53.360 hour to get everybody back on the plane before we 2804 02:30:53.399 --> 02:30:56.479 could take off. The best approach is to go ahead 2805 02:30:56.479 --> 02:30:59.479 and keep everybody on board so that you can get 2806 02:30:59.520 --> 02:31:01.760 this fixed and immediately you can roll and take off. 2807 02:31:01.879 --> 02:31:04.079 But the problem is you have to have a point 2808 02:31:04.639 --> 02:31:07.840 at which you say enough is enough. So they kept 2809 02:31:07.879 --> 02:31:10.280 trying and trying and trying to fix this issue, and 2810 02:31:10.360 --> 02:31:12.799 you're right, they were on the plane for seven hours. 2811 02:31:13.120 --> 02:31:15.280 They finally had to call in the fire department who 2812 02:31:15.360 --> 02:31:17.879 came on board to treat some of the people that 2813 02:31:18.040 --> 02:31:21.479 were passing out, and they said, look, the fumes in 2814 02:31:21.639 --> 02:31:25.559 the cabin are toxic. Get everybody off this airplane now. 2815 02:31:26.200 --> 02:31:30.520 So the seven hour nightmare didn't end because British Airways 2816 02:31:30.600 --> 02:31:33.879 finally made the call. It's because the fire department got 2817 02:31:33.920 --> 02:31:37.559 on board and said, get everybody off of this airplane now. 2818 02:31:38.120 --> 02:31:40.959 As a passenger, I mean seven hours of going nowhere. 2819 02:31:41.440 --> 02:31:43.319 No, okay. So they're on a plane with no air 2820 02:31:43.360 --> 02:31:46.399 conditioning yep, this whole time. 2821 02:31:47.079 --> 02:31:49.600 And I don't know they had no air conditioning or 2822 02:31:49.719 --> 02:31:54.280 it was subdued air conditioning not working at full capacity. 2823 02:31:54.479 --> 02:31:56.639 I don't know, but in the middle of the summer, 2824 02:31:56.760 --> 02:31:57.680 let's hope they had something. 2825 02:31:58.120 --> 02:32:00.760 Yeah, I would like to think, adding you know, further 2826 02:32:00.799 --> 02:32:03.200 to a night already nightmarre situation, being stuck in an 2827 02:32:03.200 --> 02:32:05.559 air airplane on the tarmac for that long. But you 2828 02:32:05.600 --> 02:32:07.920 said the air quality was in there was dangerous to 2829 02:32:07.959 --> 02:32:10.559 the fire department. Is that the amount of carbon dioxide 2830 02:32:10.639 --> 02:32:12.920 that I mean was it? Was it along those lines 2831 02:32:13.000 --> 02:32:14.440 or was there some kind of fumes in there? 2832 02:32:15.159 --> 02:32:17.760 It was fumes that the air end of the cabin 2833 02:32:18.120 --> 02:32:20.680 is a bleed off that comes out off the engines. 2834 02:32:20.840 --> 02:32:24.319 It's part of the components of the aircraft. Where as 2835 02:32:24.399 --> 02:32:29.360 you're flying, the fresh air is driven into the cabin 2836 02:32:29.719 --> 02:32:32.559 through the engines. So that's how they keep things cool, 2837 02:32:32.680 --> 02:32:37.239 recycled air. It's really it's really a super fascinating process 2838 02:32:37.719 --> 02:32:39.920 as it's working. The problem is if you're not flying 2839 02:32:39.959 --> 02:32:43.239 and you're sitting and you're idling, things change. And what 2840 02:32:43.399 --> 02:32:45.000 was happening you were starting to have a build up 2841 02:32:45.040 --> 02:32:46.520 of some of these fumes that were coming off the 2842 02:32:46.600 --> 02:32:50.280 canon now and that's what was being raised ever so 2843 02:32:50.399 --> 02:32:53.159 slightly at the time that for the for the fire 2844 02:32:53.200 --> 02:32:55.959 department who walk into it, boom, it hits them in 2845 02:32:56.000 --> 02:32:58.879 the face, versus somebody that's sitting there maybe accustomed to 2846 02:32:58.959 --> 02:32:59.639 what was going on. 2847 02:33:00.680 --> 02:33:00.840 You know. 2848 02:33:01.120 --> 02:33:04.520 That's why here in the United States there are significant 2849 02:33:04.600 --> 02:33:08.000 fines from the Department of Transportation if a US carrier 2850 02:33:08.200 --> 02:33:11.639 or another carrier brings passengers into the US and they 2851 02:33:11.680 --> 02:33:14.879 are trapped on an airplane for up to three hours, 2852 02:33:14.920 --> 02:33:17.840 because after that point in time, what's going to happen 2853 02:33:17.959 --> 02:33:20.799 is they're going to be fined significantly for every passenger 2854 02:33:20.879 --> 02:33:23.280 that's on board that aircraft. Now some of that was born, 2855 02:33:23.319 --> 02:33:25.840 of course, out of the nightmare we had at Northwest 2856 02:33:25.879 --> 02:33:28.479 Airlines back in the late nineties when there was a 2857 02:33:28.600 --> 02:33:31.639 thunderstorm that should have closed the Detroit airport. They did not. 2858 02:33:32.719 --> 02:33:35.120 That's not Northwest, that's the airport, and you had all 2859 02:33:35.159 --> 02:33:37.440 these planes land and then all of a sudden, this 2860 02:33:37.559 --> 02:33:40.280 blizzard thing comes through and you had airplanes stuck everywhere, 2861 02:33:40.680 --> 02:33:43.200 and you had airplanes out there for nine ten eleven 2862 02:33:43.440 --> 02:33:47.120 hours on the airplane trying to make it back to 2863 02:33:47.239 --> 02:33:50.719 the terminal and simply too dangerous to taxi. And you know, 2864 02:33:50.879 --> 02:33:53.239 they just kind of got snowed in everywhere. And that's 2865 02:33:53.280 --> 02:33:55.520 when a little bit later they said, look, we've got 2866 02:33:55.600 --> 02:33:57.879 to do something about this, and they did, and they've 2867 02:33:57.920 --> 02:33:59.079 got some good rules in place. 2868 02:34:00.079 --> 02:34:02.479 I guess good things can come from tragic events. Le's pause. 2869 02:34:02.559 --> 02:34:06.079 Bring jayback about a lightning strike and a fire suppression 2870 02:34:06.159 --> 02:34:08.840 system plus a battery fire. We've talked about the potential 2871 02:34:08.879 --> 02:34:11.079 for that well one happened. Then we'll get a final 2872 02:34:11.159 --> 02:34:13.559 close with hub delays.

I heard me the aviation expert. You 2896 02:35:23.799 --> 02:35:26.559 hear them on pretty much all the iHeart stations. He's 2897 02:35:26.600 --> 02:35:29.879 busy all week to in aviation reports, and God bless 2898 02:35:29.959 --> 02:35:31.920 him for spending this extra time with us on the 2899 02:35:32.000 --> 02:35:34.920 fifty five KRC Morning Show. Got a lightning strike issue, 2900 02:35:35.040 --> 02:35:38.000 little fire suppression foam going off at Spirit Airlines. Hangar, 2901 02:35:38.040 --> 02:35:39.200 what's this one all about? Jay? 2902 02:35:39.959 --> 02:35:42.159 Spirit can buy a break. I'm telling you if their 2903 02:35:42.200 --> 02:35:45.639 life depended on it. They've got a rather large and 2904 02:35:45.719 --> 02:35:49.000 impressive maintenance facility at Detroit. They spent it was thirty 2905 02:35:49.040 --> 02:35:52.399 two million dollars. They built around twenty seventeen. Is one 2906 02:35:52.479 --> 02:35:55.280 hundred and twenty six thousand square feet. It's where they 2907 02:35:55.360 --> 02:35:58.319 work on their aircraft and things, but it contains a 2908 02:35:58.399 --> 02:36:01.360 very aggressive fire suppression system. Well, we had a lightning 2909 02:36:01.399 --> 02:36:05.639 storm this week that triggered that fire suppression system. There 2910 02:36:05.760 --> 02:36:08.040 wasn't a fire, but it thought there was and that's 2911 02:36:08.079 --> 02:36:12.520 when the foam was let go and Brian, it went everywhere, 2912 02:36:12.840 --> 02:36:16.559 no partially burying. Five planes had to be taken out 2913 02:36:16.600 --> 02:36:19.799 of service for inspection. Actually started to ooze out onto 2914 02:36:19.959 --> 02:36:23.559 the tarmac. It looked like snow as it kind of 2915 02:36:23.680 --> 02:36:27.319 oozed out of the hangar. It was everywhere, and some 2916 02:36:27.440 --> 02:36:30.120 of this is a bit corrosive, so it's not the 2917 02:36:30.239 --> 02:36:31.959 kind of thing you just, you know, chive the kids 2918 02:36:32.000 --> 02:36:34.840 in and say go play. So what happens is you've 2919 02:36:34.879 --> 02:36:37.639 got this massive cleanup and then you have to inspect 2920 02:36:37.639 --> 02:36:39.360 the airplanes that were there. I think they took three 2921 02:36:39.520 --> 02:36:41.399 or four of them out of service just to make 2922 02:36:41.440 --> 02:36:47.319 sure that nothing adyonics wise was compromised with that particular situation. 2923 02:36:47.559 --> 02:36:50.319 But you know, I'm sure they test that fire suppression 2924 02:36:50.360 --> 02:36:53.360 system every so often. I don't think quite to this extent. 2925 02:36:53.799 --> 02:36:55.639 But if you get the chance, you can google the 2926 02:36:55.719 --> 02:36:58.079 image on Spirit Airlines of the hangar and you'll see 2927 02:36:58.079 --> 02:36:59.360 exactly what we're talking about. 2928 02:36:59.719 --> 02:37:03.879 It was everywhere, Oh and talking about a costly cleanup 2929 02:37:03.920 --> 02:37:06.920 in addition to the delays and everything went along with that. Jeez, Luiz, 2930 02:37:06.959 --> 02:37:08.680 I can only imagine, you know. 2931 02:37:08.680 --> 02:37:11.360 Hopefully they can, yes, Spiarson trying to turn things around, 2932 02:37:11.399 --> 02:37:13.399 and I don't think that picture is going to make 2933 02:37:13.440 --> 02:37:16.879 it to their company calendar for next year. But they've 2934 02:37:16.879 --> 02:37:17.920 got insurance for stuff. 2935 02:37:18.040 --> 02:37:20.840 I just gotta say that, you're right that definitely. 2936 02:37:20.520 --> 02:37:23.040 As long as nobody got hurt, you know, we we 2937 02:37:23.120 --> 02:37:25.079 can look at it and kind of guk. 2938 02:37:25.280 --> 02:37:27.840 Yeah, except for their self insured retention, which I'm sure 2939 02:37:27.920 --> 02:37:30.040 is rather substantial when you're talking about a big company 2940 02:37:30.159 --> 02:37:32.799 like that. All right, Moving over to a battery fire. 2941 02:37:32.879 --> 02:37:35.000 You and I have talked about this before. The the 2942 02:37:35.159 --> 02:37:37.639 what lithium ion battery in this case was it or 2943 02:37:37.719 --> 02:37:38.799 some other battery. 2944 02:37:39.319 --> 02:37:39.600 That was it? 2945 02:37:39.799 --> 02:37:41.840 Blah blah blah blah blah. Here we go again. We 2946 02:37:41.920 --> 02:37:45.719 had a federal aviation a Federal Aviation Administration. Excuse me, 2947 02:37:46.120 --> 02:37:48.639 they're investigating a battery fire. It was a Delta Airlines 2948 02:37:49.000 --> 02:37:50.879 seven to fifty seven. It was flying from Atlanta to 2949 02:37:50.959 --> 02:37:54.280 Fort Lauderdale. During the course of the flight, one of 2950 02:37:54.360 --> 02:37:57.040 the batteries started to overheat. So what we had to 2951 02:37:57.120 --> 02:37:59.040 have to do is the flight attendants go from flight 2952 02:37:59.079 --> 02:38:02.639 attendants to firefight. They have the fire spression bags, the procedures, 2953 02:38:03.040 --> 02:38:06.360 they're able to quickly contain it, but as the cabin 2954 02:38:06.520 --> 02:38:09.879 was being filled with smoke. So you've got the flight 2955 02:38:09.959 --> 02:38:13.680 crew that in the meantime is declaring an emergency landing 2956 02:38:13.760 --> 02:38:17.000 in Fort Myers. And this is again just another of 2957 02:38:17.120 --> 02:38:20.200 the bazilion examples we've had around the world of these 2958 02:38:20.239 --> 02:38:25.120 things overheating representing a very real safety hazard to commercial aviation, 2959 02:38:25.239 --> 02:38:27.040 and that's one of the reasons that the Federal Aviation 2960 02:38:27.040 --> 02:38:30.799 Administration has banned the Samsung Galaxy seven. I think we 2961 02:38:30.879 --> 02:38:34.680 talked about the Phone sixteen, and Brian I suspect there's 2962 02:38:34.680 --> 02:38:37.680 going to be more. There's no way that we can 2963 02:38:37.799 --> 02:38:41.920 continue to allow these types of real risks on board 2964 02:38:41.959 --> 02:38:44.680 airplanes where it takes us fifteen or twenty minutes to 2965 02:38:44.760 --> 02:38:47.879 land that airplane in an emergency because there's no way 2966 02:38:47.959 --> 02:38:49.520 to put a fire out. That's one of the reasons 2967 02:38:49.520 --> 02:38:52.040 if one of these devices gets stuck in a seat, 2968 02:38:52.440 --> 02:38:55.319 you see panic on the flight right because they know 2969 02:38:55.399 --> 02:38:57.719 if it starts to catch on fire, they don't have 2970 02:38:57.840 --> 02:39:02.280 a protocol. They can't extendish something that big. That's why 2971 02:39:02.399 --> 02:39:05.479 the aircraft will immediately declare an emergency and get they'll 2972 02:39:05.479 --> 02:39:08.520 get that airplane on the ground fast because they're worried 2973 02:39:08.559 --> 02:39:11.319 about it starting the smolder catching on fire and their 2974 02:39:11.360 --> 02:39:15.559 inability to contain it and then providing a huge safety 2975 02:39:15.639 --> 02:39:18.639 issue on board that airplane. So do we wait for 2976 02:39:18.879 --> 02:39:21.280 an accident before we take a bigger step or are 2977 02:39:21.319 --> 02:39:23.319 we going to do something now? It's going to be 2978 02:39:23.440 --> 02:39:25.280 up to the FA to see what they want to do. 2979 02:39:25.399 --> 02:39:28.799 But well, goodness, yeah, a logical and reasonable solution. And 2980 02:39:28.879 --> 02:39:30.600 you and I have talked a little bit about this before, 2981 02:39:30.680 --> 02:39:33.319 but it seems that okay, there is such a thing 2982 02:39:33.360 --> 02:39:35.280 as a fire suppression bag, and I know they make 2983 02:39:35.360 --> 02:39:38.399 these small path you know, like Faraday cage pouches that 2984 02:39:38.440 --> 02:39:40.479 people put their cell phones in to prevent you know, 2985 02:39:40.520 --> 02:39:42.760 anybody from tracking them or whatever. If you could have 2986 02:39:42.840 --> 02:39:46.280 a fire suppression bag and have the passengers obligated to 2987 02:39:46.440 --> 02:39:48.959 keep their phones in that bag or have that right 2988 02:39:49.079 --> 02:39:50.600 there with them, to the extent they have to get 2989 02:39:50.639 --> 02:39:52.680 it out and use it for any particular reason, it 2990 02:39:52.760 --> 02:39:56.159 would negate to a large extent the larger problems like 2991 02:39:56.319 --> 02:39:59.600 fumes filling up the cabin and maybe a bigger fire happening. 2992 02:40:00.200 --> 02:40:01.280 It just would cost money. 2993 02:40:02.280 --> 02:40:05.280 Yep. Well, you also are going to recognize there's no 2994 02:40:05.360 --> 02:40:07.840 way on God's green earth that you're going to pry 2995 02:40:07.920 --> 02:40:11.200 those cell phones out of people's hands. They're going to 2996 02:40:11.280 --> 02:40:14.479 have them the entire time, and they're gonna not keep 2997 02:40:14.520 --> 02:40:16.000 them in any sort of the bag, and they're not 2998 02:40:16.040 --> 02:40:18.360 going to follow the instructions. You know, that is that's 2999 02:40:18.360 --> 02:40:21.319 how people are. It's like, take my kids, but you know, 3000 02:40:21.399 --> 02:40:23.959 let me keep my phone. That's how precious these things 3001 02:40:23.959 --> 02:40:26.639 are an individual. So yeah, the idea of trying to 3002 02:40:27.440 --> 02:40:30.680 eliminate them from every flight, it's not something we can 3003 02:40:30.799 --> 02:40:33.959 do practically because that's just not going to happen. But 3004 02:40:34.040 --> 02:40:36.399 we've got to do something because you can look at 3005 02:40:36.440 --> 02:40:40.479 an aircraft. There's pictures. I forget the International carrier that 3006 02:40:40.600 --> 02:40:42.680 had one of these battery fires that got out of control. 3007 02:40:42.879 --> 02:40:45.479 They were at the gate, briant burned off the entire 3008 02:40:45.600 --> 02:40:49.760 top of the aircraft. Now there's a video that's some 3009 02:40:49.959 --> 02:40:51.879 kids going through an airport with a phone in his 3010 02:40:52.000 --> 02:40:55.440 backpack and it catches on fire and within seconds the 3011 02:40:55.639 --> 02:40:58.879 entire backpack is on fire. These things burned hot, they 3012 02:40:58.959 --> 02:41:02.959 burn quick, and they are dangerous and it's something that 3013 02:41:03.120 --> 02:41:06.600 you know when you're talking about safety and aviation. It's 3014 02:41:06.639 --> 02:41:08.680 one of the biggest concerns we have right now. That's 3015 02:41:08.719 --> 02:41:11.799 why Southwest Airlines says, if you're going to charge your battery, 3016 02:41:12.319 --> 02:41:13.760 you have to do it where you can see it. 3017 02:41:13.920 --> 02:41:16.479 Don't have it charging in an overhead bin that might 3018 02:41:16.559 --> 02:41:19.000 catch on fire, smolder, and we don't know about it 3019 02:41:19.360 --> 02:41:21.959 until it's a bigger issue. You're seeing different airlines take 3020 02:41:22.040 --> 02:41:26.280 different positions to try to combat it to one degree 3021 02:41:26.399 --> 02:41:29.440 or another. But all we're doing is taking half steps 3022 02:41:29.479 --> 02:41:31.440 to the measure and a lot more has got to 3023 02:41:31.440 --> 02:41:33.000 be done. And yeah, every week you and I are 3024 02:41:33.000 --> 02:41:35.120 talking about this crazy all right. 3025 02:41:35.120 --> 02:41:37.319 As we always end conclude with hub delays. How's it 3026 02:41:37.399 --> 02:41:38.600 looking out there for air travel? 3027 02:41:38.719 --> 02:41:41.559 Jay, Yeah, people heading to the airport connecting in Minneapolis, 3028 02:41:41.639 --> 02:41:45.079 New York, Atlanta, Charlotte, those forced hubs are certainly going 3029 02:41:45.159 --> 02:41:48.040 to give you a delay. But I think Boston's the 3030 02:41:48.200 --> 02:41:51.319 clear problem child of the day. Lots of weather when 3031 02:41:51.479 --> 02:41:54.879 limited visibilities, and some of those flight delays are going 3032 02:41:54.959 --> 02:41:57.280 to be excessive through Boston. But if you went through 3033 02:41:57.600 --> 02:42:00.559 to the south or anywhere out west in pretty good 3034 02:42:00.559 --> 02:42:02.639 shape and less of course your planes being routed through 3035 02:42:02.719 --> 02:42:05.680 one of these cities before it reaches you.
