I was keeping a 27 00:01:45.519 --> 00:01:48.480 lid on it until he talked with someone from the Inquirer. 28 00:01:48.599 --> 00:01:51.280 So I figure it's common news. Apparently it is common news. 29 00:01:51.359 --> 00:01:55.040 Joe Drecker knew about it last week. He didn't let 30 00:01:55.120 --> 00:01:57.799 me know. Christopher, what's up?

Actually they've been in they got 41 00:02:37.840 --> 00:02:39.800 into a merger. So the name of the Emory Federal 42 00:02:39.800 --> 00:02:42.159 Credit Union I believe is subject to change. We're going 43 00:02:42.199 --> 00:02:44.000 to ask Todd about that. But we'll also learn about 44 00:02:44.000 --> 00:02:48.240 the golf outing coming up very quickly, Rose Cares since 45 00:02:48.240 --> 00:02:50.759 Ava returns.

Anyway, he posted 58 00:03:27.520 --> 00:03:29.879 on his Facebook post, I just spent some time with 59 00:03:29.919 --> 00:03:32.919 West End residents who described what happened last night. This 60 00:03:33.000 --> 00:03:35.879 post from yesterday, so I'm assuming he's talking about Saturday night. 61 00:03:35.960 --> 00:03:38.120 We wouldn't know because there's been no reporting on this. 62 00:03:39.479 --> 00:03:43.759 He says fifty to sixty shots fired along Clark Street 63 00:03:43.800 --> 00:03:46.680 by the football field, hitting park cars in at least 64 00:03:46.719 --> 00:03:50.120 one house, showing a picture of a bullet that passed 65 00:03:50.159 --> 00:03:54.599 through the taped window.

What else 83 00:05:09.439 --> 00:05:13.800 is going on? Sincinni officials reviewing allegations from the Fraternal 84 00:05:13.879 --> 00:05:16.600 Order of Police. That's what Ken kober is going to 85 00:05:16.600 --> 00:05:19.720 be talking about, calling for Iris Rawley to be fired. 86 00:05:19.800 --> 00:05:24.680 They circulating an online petition which was started by Ken Cobra. 87 00:05:24.680 --> 00:05:27.920 Petition alleges that Iris Rawley quote has been caught on 88 00:05:28.040 --> 00:05:34.000 bodycam multiple times harassing police officers for just doing their jobs. 89 00:05:35.199 --> 00:05:37.920 As of yesterday morning, already twenty nine hundred signatures their 90 00:05:37.959 --> 00:05:43.240 goal five thousand signatures. You can help out sign the 91 00:05:43.240 --> 00:05:47.399 petition court a petition despite clear misconduct, the city continues 92 00:05:47.439 --> 00:05:51.040 to fund her contract with taxpayer dollars. And it's so far. 93 00:05:51.120 --> 00:05:54.199 I got to interject, insofar as misconduct is concerned, if 94 00:05:54.199 --> 00:05:56.480 you or I interfered with an officer doing his or 95 00:05:56.519 --> 00:05:58.360 her job, don't you think we will be subject to 96 00:05:58.360 --> 00:06:04.360 some sort of citation, maybe get arrested. Can you imagine 97 00:06:04.360 --> 00:06:09.079 the police interacting with Iris Raleigh, who perhaps was worthy 98 00:06:09.519 --> 00:06:12.800 of a citation for her interference with police doing their 99 00:06:12.879 --> 00:06:16.720 duty imagine it's a bit difficult for a police officer 100 00:06:16.720 --> 00:06:21.519 to actually consider issuing her a citation, considering her outspoken advocacy, 101 00:06:21.759 --> 00:06:24.800 her connection with elected officials, including the mayor's office and 102 00:06:24.839 --> 00:06:30.439 the city manager she's employed by them, and her outspoking 103 00:06:30.720 --> 00:06:35.879 advocacy against the police department generally speaking. H Yeah, I'm 104 00:06:35.879 --> 00:06:38.920 sure she'd call for an investigation into you, police officer 105 00:06:38.959 --> 00:06:41.000 for issuing her a citation that she may have been 106 00:06:41.000 --> 00:06:48.560 worthy of getting anyway. On the petition, the Fraternal Order 107 00:06:48.600 --> 00:06:51.759 Police posted a couple of body camera videos showing Raleigh 108 00:06:51.759 --> 00:06:56.319 harassing cops allegedly. They also posted an appearance Raleigh made 109 00:06:56.319 --> 00:06:59.600 on podcasts where she quote, wasted no time berating a 110 00:06:59.680 --> 00:07:02.399 retire I heard Cincinnati police officer and others on the 111 00:07:02.480 --> 00:07:08.079 show close quote that's on the petition website. FOP also 112 00:07:08.160 --> 00:07:12.839 posted the videos on the organization's Facebook page, one post 113 00:07:12.839 --> 00:07:17.199 claiming Raleigh is not a collaborator, instead calling her an agitator. 114 00:07:18.480 --> 00:07:22.800 We entered the realm of subjectivity. Uh thank you, Molly 115 00:07:22.839 --> 00:07:26.199 Shram the CPO for reporting Friday Rally responded to petition 116 00:07:26.240 --> 00:07:33.439 and claims the harassment with statements from her attorney. Actually 117 00:07:33.439 --> 00:07:34.920 one of the body came ravi is she asked the 118 00:07:34.959 --> 00:07:37.199 man who's being asked at the time by a Sinceinn 119 00:07:37.279 --> 00:07:40.240 police officer to pour out his beer if he'd liked 120 00:07:40.240 --> 00:07:45.319 to file a complaint against the officer. Huh, right then 121 00:07:45.439 --> 00:07:47.920 and there while he's the officer is doing his job 122 00:07:48.040 --> 00:07:51.079 or her job anyway, the attorney said. Video circulated by 123 00:07:51.079 --> 00:07:53.199 the FOP members and a recent called to we assign 124 00:07:53.279 --> 00:07:57.560 a petition have targeted Miss Rawleigh for encouraging a community 125 00:07:57.600 --> 00:08:01.240 member to follow follow a formal complain procedures and questioning 126 00:08:01.279 --> 00:08:03.879 an officer's response, which have long been part of her 127 00:08:03.920 --> 00:08:08.079 community centered approach to better policing in this city and 128 00:08:08.160 --> 00:08:11.120 are within her rights to free speech and advocacy outside 129 00:08:11.120 --> 00:08:14.519 her formal service for the city. Oh, she wasn't acting 130 00:08:14.560 --> 00:08:16.839 in her capacity as an advisor to the city when 131 00:08:16.879 --> 00:08:17.519 she was doing this. 132 00:08:18.000 --> 00:08:21.079 Humph huh. 133 00:08:21.240 --> 00:08:23.519 But it is consistent with and does flow from her 134 00:08:25.160 --> 00:08:28.040 position relative to the Cincinnati Police Department in her role 135 00:08:28.120 --> 00:08:34.159 as some sort of consultant for the city. The statement 136 00:08:34.200 --> 00:08:36.759 from her attorney also says that her decades long role 137 00:08:36.799 --> 00:08:39.480 in Cincinnati has, in their words or his or her words, 138 00:08:39.519 --> 00:08:43.679 always involved evaluating police conduct and supporting community voices about 139 00:08:43.720 --> 00:08:48.360 policing in the city. Statement also says the fop's allegations 140 00:08:48.399 --> 00:08:53.360 have led to hate messages and threats to rally her 141 00:08:53.399 --> 00:09:01.919 family and business. We'll join the club. Yeah, that street 142 00:09:02.000 --> 00:09:06.440 runs more than one way. How many conservatives out there 143 00:09:06.480 --> 00:09:12.039 have received hate messages and threats? A lot of them. 144 00:09:14.720 --> 00:09:18.279 Welcome to social media, Welcome to you know, your outspoken 145 00:09:18.399 --> 00:09:21.879 advocacy against the police department having some repercussions among those 146 00:09:21.919 --> 00:09:25.840 of us who do support law enforcement. Apparently been a 147 00:09:25.879 --> 00:09:29.080 consultant with the City Managers Office since twenty twenty two. 148 00:09:31.279 --> 00:09:35.320 Guess she does work helping Cincinnati implement its Collaborative Agreement, 149 00:09:35.879 --> 00:09:38.320 which goes all the way back to the riots in 150 00:09:38.360 --> 00:09:40.840 two thousand and one. If I recall correctly, She was 151 00:09:40.879 --> 00:09:44.960 one of the organizers in bringing about the collaborative agreement. 152 00:09:46.720 --> 00:09:50.919 Also described as a prominent longtime organizer with the Cincinnati 153 00:09:51.600 --> 00:09:59.200 Black United Front. Telling the popular People's You Front Joe 154 00:09:59.519 --> 00:10:05.159 campaign Free Galilee Anyway. Molly shram Over at CBO described 155 00:10:05.200 --> 00:10:12.399 that as a social justice collective. Enjoy your own conclusions. 156 00:10:13.039 --> 00:10:15.039 For her part, since they manager share a long in 157 00:10:15.080 --> 00:10:19.399 responsible way. A request from WCPO for a statement describe 158 00:10:19.399 --> 00:10:25.559 her as an essential community and civic leader in Cincinnati. Essential. 159 00:10:26.879 --> 00:10:29.639 Her contributions spanned from origins of the Collaborative Agreement to 160 00:10:29.679 --> 00:10:32.279 her commitment to problem solving resulting in support for teens 161 00:10:32.279 --> 00:10:36.879 at our transit center. She consistently sets up organized steps 162 00:10:36.960 --> 00:10:39.720 up to organize effective strategies and raises her hand to 163 00:10:39.759 --> 00:10:44.960 support the community when others don't. However, in spite of 164 00:10:44.960 --> 00:10:47.720 her praise for Irish Rowle, a city manager, Long had 165 00:10:47.720 --> 00:10:51.080 this to say, anyone doing work on behalf of the 166 00:10:51.200 --> 00:10:54.639 city of Cincinnati must hold themselves to a higher standard. 167 00:10:55.000 --> 00:10:58.000 That includes not interfering with the police who are in 168 00:10:58.000 --> 00:11:02.000 the act of performing their lawful duties. Can't let that 169 00:11:02.080 --> 00:11:07.080 go unaddressed, Sharyl Long, Canyon right, because it's the one 170 00:11:07.080 --> 00:11:09.960 thing in your statement that really makes sense. Don't mess 171 00:11:10.000 --> 00:11:13.279 around with police during their duties five sixteen fifty five 172 00:11:13.399 --> 00:11:16.480 KRC The Talk Station five one, three, seven, four nine, 173 00:11:16.480 --> 00:11:18.440 fifty five hundred, eight hundred eight two to three Talk 174 00:11:18.840 --> 00:11:21.200 found five fifty on at and T Funds.

We'll find out together coming up at seven twenty. 180 00:11:39.960 --> 00:11:43.320 I hope he is. What do you think should Christopher 181 00:11:43.399 --> 00:11:45.759 run for counsel? Maybe he's not decided yet. We had 182 00:11:45.799 --> 00:11:49.080 a pretty definitive confirmation yesterday. We'll see what he has 183 00:11:49.120 --> 00:11:51.440 to say. Apparently called into Dustrekker and said I did 184 00:11:51.480 --> 00:11:56.279 not announce and I was running. So uh, swirling question 185 00:11:56.360 --> 00:11:59.720 marks regarding the candidacy of Christopher Smith. Aman anyway, demonstrably 186 00:12:00.399 --> 00:12:03.080 man and of course a voice of common sense and reason. 187 00:12:03.200 --> 00:12:06.240 I think you've be a welcome edition five one, three, seven, four, 188 00:12:06.320 --> 00:12:08.559 nine fifty, five hundred, eight hundred and eighty two three 189 00:12:08.720 --> 00:12:10.679 talk pound five fifty on AT and T phone. What 190 00:12:10.679 --> 00:12:12.519 else is going on in the Greater CINCINNTI area? Well, 191 00:12:12.519 --> 00:12:16.919 the Hamilton County Associated Association of Chiefs of Police chiming 192 00:12:17.000 --> 00:12:19.159 in on one of the problems we've identified here in 193 00:12:19.159 --> 00:12:21.600 this city, which is the judicial component of the criminal 194 00:12:21.720 --> 00:12:24.639 justice system. If you don't have judges willing to set 195 00:12:24.679 --> 00:12:28.480 appropriate bonds, put people in jail for appropriate periods of 196 00:12:28.519 --> 00:12:32.600 times for heinous crimes, they have committed recidivist criminals coming 197 00:12:32.639 --> 00:12:34.919 in and going through the revolving door of the criminal 198 00:12:35.039 --> 00:12:38.360 justice system. You get the best police department, fully staffed 199 00:12:38.399 --> 00:12:41.200 out in the world. You could have the best prosecutor's office. 200 00:12:41.240 --> 00:12:44.080 You whether we've got one of those, you can draw 201 00:12:44.120 --> 00:12:47.840 your own conclusions. But prosecutors wanting to prosecute criminals to 202 00:12:47.879 --> 00:12:49.600 the fullest extent of the law end up in front 203 00:12:49.639 --> 00:12:52.960 of some liberal, woke judge and that's the end of 204 00:12:52.960 --> 00:12:56.480 the process. So that's an epic failure. As far as 205 00:12:56.519 --> 00:12:59.200 the Hamilton County Association of Chiefs Police, they're calling out 206 00:12:59.200 --> 00:13:04.639 what they describe as gaps in the judicial process. Statement 207 00:13:04.679 --> 00:13:07.360 released last week August eighth, they said it's not good 208 00:13:07.440 --> 00:13:10.559 enough to arrest violent offenders if they're swiftly released back 209 00:13:10.600 --> 00:13:13.879 into our neighborhoods due to lacks bail practices or insufficient 210 00:13:13.960 --> 00:13:19.399 sentencing amen. They announced they will be hosting a roundtable 211 00:13:19.399 --> 00:13:23.879 discussion within the next month with members of the judiciary, prosecutors, 212 00:13:23.879 --> 00:13:27.200 elected officials, and other partners about ways to strengthen public safety. 213 00:13:27.960 --> 00:13:33.240 Good Camera Knight since they inquire reporting, appreciated Cameron pointing 214 00:13:33.240 --> 00:13:36.720 out criticism of the judges not new before. Connie Pilich 215 00:13:36.799 --> 00:13:41.159 elected the Prosecutor's office. Formerly the Prosecutor's Office would post 216 00:13:41.679 --> 00:13:45.279 the cases and judges on Facebook, pointing out well the 217 00:13:45.399 --> 00:13:50.240 sentences and while highlighting judges who set bonds that they 218 00:13:50.279 --> 00:13:54.960 believe were too lower lenient. Joe Dieters and Melissa Powers 219 00:13:54.960 --> 00:13:58.679 both did this, In other words, real time accurate reporting 220 00:13:58.720 --> 00:14:02.080 information so we the public could make informed decisions when 221 00:14:02.080 --> 00:14:04.559 we go into the ballot box in November. They don't 222 00:14:04.559 --> 00:14:14.519 do that anymore. Police data and going back to Steve 223 00:14:14.559 --> 00:14:17.320 Gooden on this post about fifty to sixty shots fired 224 00:14:17.360 --> 00:14:21.279 to pointed out no arrest and not in any police statistics. 225 00:14:21.799 --> 00:14:24.200 So if you have an incident involving fifty to sisity 226 00:14:24.320 --> 00:14:26.600 sixty shots fired and it's not reported on any of 227 00:14:26.639 --> 00:14:30.240 the police statistics, how reliable are the police data? Is 228 00:14:30.279 --> 00:14:33.720 the police data anyway? Caver Knight reporting the police data 229 00:14:33.759 --> 00:14:37.039 shows rates as some crimes are up, others have fallen. 230 00:14:37.879 --> 00:14:41.799 Robberies are up nine percent year to date, three more 231 00:14:41.840 --> 00:14:45.519 homicides year to date, however, aggravated assault down six percent 232 00:14:45.559 --> 00:14:50.240 and shootings are down twenty four percent. H do you 233 00:14:50.279 --> 00:14:55.360 feel safe in downtown Cincinnati? Chief? Fiji Police Chief Dji 234 00:14:55.600 --> 00:14:58.720 recently echoed the remarks of the Chiefs Association saying, part 235 00:14:58.759 --> 00:15:01.759 of the problem is, Yeah, that's the revolving door of justice. 236 00:15:02.960 --> 00:15:05.679 Claim your office too often put themselves at risk to 237 00:15:05.720 --> 00:15:08.240 get criminals off the street, to see them released with 238 00:15:08.320 --> 00:15:12.039 little consequence. How are we going to get the word 239 00:15:12.039 --> 00:15:15.039 out about judges? I mean, you can rely on the 240 00:15:15.039 --> 00:15:16.960 fifty five Caurasy Morning Show to the extent I have 241 00:15:17.000 --> 00:15:20.799 information about who's running and who's not running. I know 242 00:15:20.840 --> 00:15:22.399 how difficult it is if you're not engaged in the 243 00:15:22.399 --> 00:15:25.600 criminal justice system to have any awareness about the leanings 244 00:15:26.320 --> 00:15:28.519 of the judges and whether heart or whether they're tough 245 00:15:28.559 --> 00:15:34.960 on crime or soft on crime. Anyway, Chiefs Association set 246 00:15:35.000 --> 00:15:37.720 the goal of the upcoming roundtable to review the impact 247 00:15:37.799 --> 00:15:42.080 of current bail reform policies promoting consistent sentencing and building 248 00:15:42.120 --> 00:15:46.960 transparency and public confidence in the judicial system. That's a 249 00:15:47.039 --> 00:15:51.000 high mark. Let's be clear, they wrote, we will not 250 00:15:51.080 --> 00:15:54.279 allow the dedication and sacrifice of our law enforcement professionals 251 00:15:54.320 --> 00:15:58.240 to be rendered meaningless by systemic failures or the absence 252 00:15:58.279 --> 00:16:03.279 of shared responsibility. Well, one can only hope they can 253 00:16:03.320 --> 00:16:06.960 bear that their efforts can bear some fruit. If you're 254 00:16:07.000 --> 00:16:11.120 a woke jurist. I'm not sure pressure from law enforcement 255 00:16:11.240 --> 00:16:13.240 really change the hearts in or your heart and mind. 256 00:16:13.960 --> 00:16:16.159 It remains to be seen, but therein lies one of 257 00:16:16.200 --> 00:16:20.279 the biggest challenges we face. Sounds like law enforcements stepping up. 258 00:16:20.320 --> 00:16:22.600 We've got some pronouncements from the mayor and the city 259 00:16:22.639 --> 00:16:25.679 council members in the aftermath of that June or July 260 00:16:25.799 --> 00:16:28.960 twenty sixth beat down. Sounds like they're promising to get 261 00:16:28.960 --> 00:16:32.840 tough on crime, paying lip service to the idea anyway. 262 00:16:33.000 --> 00:16:39.279 They have no control over the judiciary. Honestly, neither does 263 00:16:39.320 --> 00:16:42.039 this group that are putting together, This group of folks 264 00:16:42.039 --> 00:16:44.320 that are the haven't kind of association of chief of 265 00:16:44.320 --> 00:16:47.320 police is putting together the harumph over this subject matter. 266 00:16:47.960 --> 00:16:52.720 The judges aren't willing to heed your advice and your recommendations. 267 00:16:53.480 --> 00:16:56.759 It's all probably an exercise and wheel spinning. Five twenty 268 00:16:56.840 --> 00:17:00.200 five fifty five KR see detalk station, local store where 269 00:17:00.200 --> 00:17:01.919 he's coming up.

Without further doo, let's 284 00:17:35.799 --> 00:17:37.680 jump over to the phones. Tom, Welcome back, my friend. 285 00:17:37.680 --> 00:17:39.000 It's always a pleasure hearing from you. 286 00:17:40.200 --> 00:17:40.759 Good warnings. 287 00:17:40.799 --> 00:17:41.559 You have a good weekend? 288 00:17:42.079 --> 00:17:43.279 Uh, yeah, I actually did. 289 00:17:43.519 --> 00:17:47.480 Yeah, that's good. I don't think i've yeah to hear 290 00:17:47.559 --> 00:17:50.039 you say you had a bad weekend. Weekends are good 291 00:17:50.119 --> 00:17:51.400 just by definition, aren't they? 292 00:17:51.480 --> 00:17:53.680 Yes? They are because I can sleep in and for 293 00:17:53.720 --> 00:17:55.759 no other reason, and maybe I didn't do anything, but 294 00:17:55.839 --> 00:17:58.119 I did get to sleep in, which I dearly love. 295 00:17:58.519 --> 00:18:01.799 So right, Well, yeah, well sleep sleeping in for you 296 00:18:02.000 --> 00:18:05.160 is uh, it doesn't mean it's it's getting up bet 297 00:18:05.680 --> 00:18:08.319 later or something. So you got pretty early. 298 00:18:08.759 --> 00:18:10.720 Paul that'll get up at like six o'clock in the 299 00:18:10.720 --> 00:18:13.519 morning on Saturday because the dog insists, and she is 300 00:18:13.640 --> 00:18:16.319 kind enough to not involve me in that process. So 301 00:18:16.359 --> 00:18:18.720 I get to STARp, stay in bed and do the 302 00:18:18.720 --> 00:18:21.240 nom nom nom nam thing. I think about getting up, 303 00:18:21.240 --> 00:18:23.599 and usually it's like eight o'clock, maybe eight thirty before 304 00:18:23.680 --> 00:18:24.720 actually crawling a bed on. 305 00:18:24.880 --> 00:18:29.359 Oh that's sleeping man, you're yeah, that's usually your show's 306 00:18:29.359 --> 00:18:32.200 about over and you're you're just getting up. That's awesome, 307 00:18:32.279 --> 00:18:34.000 It is so good for you. 308 00:18:34.079 --> 00:18:34.519 I can't. 309 00:18:34.720 --> 00:18:36.880 I can't do that anymore. I can't sleep in that late. 310 00:18:37.240 --> 00:18:40.279 So I'm if I'm still in bed by seven o'clock, 311 00:18:40.359 --> 00:18:44.200 that's a miracle. So I just can't later. So anyway, 312 00:18:45.519 --> 00:18:48.000 this whole thing with the you were just talking about 313 00:18:48.000 --> 00:18:51.359 with the judges and stuff, and and all this hand 314 00:18:51.440 --> 00:18:54.720 ringing by the left of of everything that's wrong with society, 315 00:18:54.759 --> 00:18:56.599 and one of the biggest things they screamed about, and 316 00:18:56.599 --> 00:18:59.559 they happened for a while is racism. And I really 317 00:18:59.599 --> 00:19:04.079 think that what should happen is is that a bunch 318 00:19:04.079 --> 00:19:07.480 of the black community leaders should get together and acknowledge 319 00:19:07.680 --> 00:19:13.519 the fact, the fact Brian Thomas that racism is not 320 00:19:13.759 --> 00:19:17.079 going on near to the extent as they claim it is. 321 00:19:17.119 --> 00:19:19.400 But of course if they do that, then that means 322 00:19:19.440 --> 00:19:23.079 they get rid of all the fuel and all the 323 00:19:23.200 --> 00:19:28.000 alleged wind behind their sales of scream and bloody murder 324 00:19:28.000 --> 00:19:30.720 and how bad everybody is. You know something I found 325 00:19:30.759 --> 00:19:34.559 interesting There was a allegedly there was a video clip 326 00:19:34.799 --> 00:19:37.839 that came out about that July twenty sixth feet down 327 00:19:37.880 --> 00:19:42.279 that you reference, and it was allegedly had somebody yelling 328 00:19:42.359 --> 00:19:45.640 or some people yelling the N word, and I didn't 329 00:19:45.680 --> 00:19:47.319 hear any more about it. I don't know if you 330 00:19:47.400 --> 00:19:50.839 brought this up, but obviously they could not link that 331 00:19:51.279 --> 00:19:54.920 whatever was being said to a white person. Therefore it 332 00:19:55.160 --> 00:19:58.279 just doesn't exist anymore. I guess does it really matter 333 00:19:58.640 --> 00:20:02.559 if I hear anybody anybody else complain about the use 334 00:20:02.599 --> 00:20:05.640 of the end word, anyone from the black community complain 335 00:20:05.720 --> 00:20:09.119 about the use of the end word. I'm so fed 336 00:20:09.200 --> 00:20:12.599 up with that the black community. And of course this 337 00:20:12.680 --> 00:20:16.240 is not every black person, so relax if you're out 338 00:20:16.559 --> 00:20:19.599 every black person feels this way. But enough black people 339 00:20:19.640 --> 00:20:22.759 out there are fine with it, and their music, they're 340 00:20:22.960 --> 00:20:26.039 fine with it when they're talking amongst themselves. But as 341 00:20:26.079 --> 00:20:29.799 soon as someone who's too white uses that word, apparently 342 00:20:29.799 --> 00:20:32.480 it's the end of the world. I don't use the word. 343 00:20:32.759 --> 00:20:35.559 I don't know if I've ever used it. I'm not 344 00:20:35.680 --> 00:20:40.440 going to. I agree it's derogatory, shouldn't be used, and 345 00:20:40.559 --> 00:20:43.119 I don't want to get myself in that kind of trouble. 346 00:20:43.160 --> 00:20:47.640 But come on, the hypocrisy is absolutely ridiculous and all that. 347 00:20:47.759 --> 00:20:52.039 And that's just one example of how the left uses 348 00:20:52.119 --> 00:20:56.200 things to their benefit that that aren't even true. They 349 00:20:56.359 --> 00:20:59.240 lie just to try to get their way and push 350 00:20:59.279 --> 00:20:59.920 things around. 351 00:21:00.200 --> 00:21:02.480 Don't vote Democrat. Have a great day, Brian. 352 00:21:02.319 --> 00:21:05.920 I appreciate it. Tom. Yeah, I hear different reactions in 353 00:21:06.000 --> 00:21:08.039 terms of the use of the ND word, particularly in music. 354 00:21:08.079 --> 00:21:10.759 I mean, it's pervasive in music. If you listen to music, 355 00:21:10.880 --> 00:21:15.200 it's there, it is. And yeah, i've heard commentators. Black 356 00:21:15.200 --> 00:21:18.079 commentators know white people are not allowed to sing along 357 00:21:18.279 --> 00:21:22.400 or use that word in any context whatsoever. In spite 358 00:21:22.440 --> 00:21:24.079 of the fact you can find the use of that 359 00:21:24.119 --> 00:21:26.400 word all over the place, and you know, hip hop 360 00:21:26.440 --> 00:21:32.319 and rap and other you know, musical forms. It's ownership's claim. 361 00:21:32.400 --> 00:21:34.640 The black community owns the word. No one else is 362 00:21:34.640 --> 00:21:39.480 allowed it's exclusive use. I noticed that they've actually, I suppose, 363 00:21:39.480 --> 00:21:41.559 in some way, shape or form, sort of transformed that 364 00:21:41.640 --> 00:21:45.279 word from a derogatory term whites used against black people, 365 00:21:45.400 --> 00:21:50.759 and it's acceptable to use under certain circumstances in the 366 00:21:50.799 --> 00:21:55.680 black community, never acceptable in the white community. Just rather 367 00:21:55.759 --> 00:22:01.319 interesting social reality that one can't comment on the brawl. 368 00:22:01.440 --> 00:22:03.400 Don't know who used the word or even if it 369 00:22:03.440 --> 00:22:06.960 was used.

You know, you know, I 410 00:24:23.759 --> 00:24:25.440 hate starting out doing this. 411 00:24:26.119 --> 00:24:30.359 No, you're listen.

That's one of the reasons I'm so 414 00:24:35.079 --> 00:24:36.920 proud to be able to sponsor him, because I love 415 00:24:37.000 --> 00:24:38.680 to save that kind of money and I love being 416 00:24:38.920 --> 00:24:41.599 It's like recommending something to a friend. I get to 417 00:24:41.640 --> 00:24:43.640 do it, and I'm it's a paid sponsor, but you know, 418 00:24:43.680 --> 00:24:45.519 it makes me please to do that. And I'm happy 419 00:24:45.519 --> 00:24:47.799 you saved six grand. I'm happy your friends save what 420 00:24:47.880 --> 00:24:51.480 sounds like eight thousand dollars. That's real money, man. 421 00:24:52.200 --> 00:24:56.440 Man, Okay. In the second thing, you know, and this 422 00:24:56.519 --> 00:24:58.559 is the last time I called about race or anything 423 00:24:58.640 --> 00:25:01.000 like this, but I just want people to know that. 424 00:25:01.279 --> 00:25:04.680 You know, I'm an older black man and I have 425 00:25:04.839 --> 00:25:09.759 older black friends and all different friends. But anyway, we 426 00:25:09.839 --> 00:25:14.519 do think independently. We don't follow our sharpening. We don't 427 00:25:14.519 --> 00:25:18.240 follow the NAACP. We know they're watching the TV looking 428 00:25:18.279 --> 00:25:21.079 for something to happen, to pop out of the shadows. 429 00:25:21.119 --> 00:25:22.000 We already know. 430 00:25:22.000 --> 00:25:25.000 This, and we just don't. We just want people to 431 00:25:25.000 --> 00:25:28.160 know and understand. Listen, every time you come saying what 432 00:25:28.279 --> 00:25:31.359 black people should do is upsets us because you you 433 00:25:31.599 --> 00:25:32.319 locked us in a. 434 00:25:32.279 --> 00:25:33.559 Small group of people. 435 00:25:34.240 --> 00:25:36.799 And I just want people to understand that, Look. 436 00:25:36.599 --> 00:25:37.839 We think independently. 437 00:25:38.319 --> 00:25:40.960 It's just a few of us, very few. 438 00:25:41.559 --> 00:25:44.400 That you see out there, because I'm sure that people 439 00:25:44.440 --> 00:25:47.200 work with a whole lot of other you know, black 440 00:25:47.279 --> 00:25:48.640 or asking every way you want. 441 00:25:48.480 --> 00:25:49.079 To be called. 442 00:25:49.359 --> 00:25:53.119 That don't have the same fault as everybody else. And 443 00:25:53.200 --> 00:25:55.599 I just want people to say, look, don't paint with 444 00:25:55.640 --> 00:25:58.920 a broad brush, you know, get a smaller brush, you please, 445 00:25:59.240 --> 00:26:02.519 I don't group us, what's everybody else? And I appreciate 446 00:26:02.599 --> 00:26:04.000 you man, and you have a great date. 447 00:26:04.079 --> 00:26:06.920 Thanks Fred. I appreciate your statement. And I don't know. 448 00:26:06.960 --> 00:26:09.079 I mean, I've tried to be consistent in my attitude 449 00:26:09.079 --> 00:26:12.000 toward painting with a broadbrush, and I don't abide by that. 450 00:26:12.119 --> 00:26:16.519 And I share Fred's observations. I don't believe anyone in 451 00:26:16.559 --> 00:26:20.359 the black communities let's monolithic, all one size fits all lockstep. 452 00:26:21.160 --> 00:26:23.880 But isn't an interesting observation on the heels of Fred's 453 00:26:23.880 --> 00:26:26.799 comment that we're in the middle of this jerry mandering 454 00:26:26.880 --> 00:26:30.759 debate and that they are so convinced, are political officials 455 00:26:30.759 --> 00:26:35.240 they're so convinced by drawing a different line they can 456 00:26:35.319 --> 00:26:37.960 guarantee an outcome on whether it's going to be a 457 00:26:38.000 --> 00:26:42.599 Republican or Democrat victory. I don't say they guarantee that outcome, 458 00:26:42.599 --> 00:26:46.039 but it's a foregone conclusion, which meaning, which means those 459 00:26:46.079 --> 00:26:49.440 elected officials who are busily redrawing maps are taken into 460 00:26:49.440 --> 00:26:53.480 account the historic reality that, in spite of Fred's comments 461 00:26:54.519 --> 00:27:01.400 that there is this sort of lockstep, unanimous well Democrat 462 00:27:01.519 --> 00:27:05.519 vote that comes from within the Black community, they know 463 00:27:05.599 --> 00:27:07.799 by redrawing the lines that they're going to guarantee whether 464 00:27:07.839 --> 00:27:09.799 it's going to be a Republican or Democrat in office. 465 00:27:09.960 --> 00:27:13.279 It's frightening stuff. Would it be a wild thing if, 466 00:27:13.319 --> 00:27:16.960 after they get done redrawing the maps, that the public, 467 00:27:17.000 --> 00:27:20.319 who ultimately votes independent of mind, decides to go a 468 00:27:20.359 --> 00:27:24.119 different direction and deprives whichever political parties redrawing the lines 469 00:27:24.160 --> 00:27:30.559 of their guaranteed victory. Huh, that would be cool, wouldn't it. 470 00:27:30.559 --> 00:27:32.680 It'd be cool if it was either Republican or Democrat 471 00:27:33.279 --> 00:27:36.640 redistricting anyway over the sack and stupid got a man 472 00:27:36.680 --> 00:27:40.119 in Texas accused of approaching young girls in an elementary 473 00:27:40.119 --> 00:27:45.079 school parking lot wearing only a diaper and pacifier around 474 00:27:45.119 --> 00:27:47.440 his neck.

I've heard him say that. 550 00:32:02.119 --> 00:32:04.880 You know, there was a manifesto from God. 551 00:32:04.759 --> 00:32:07.599 That they be over this of the group sounds like 552 00:32:07.640 --> 00:32:08.680 the Nazis. 553 00:32:09.559 --> 00:32:14.720 Hey whoever, it is a human experience as we go 554 00:32:14.880 --> 00:32:19.839 through it now right now here local and we realized 555 00:32:19.920 --> 00:32:23.079 this been Oh that was terrible what happened down at 556 00:32:23.079 --> 00:32:26.720 the fight, the lady getting hit, the guys getting jumped on, 557 00:32:27.559 --> 00:32:31.000 but we're not looking at who started it. You know, 558 00:32:31.079 --> 00:32:34.480 you've had six black people's arrested for joining in on 559 00:32:34.559 --> 00:32:37.880 the fight. But then the one that started to fight, 560 00:32:38.519 --> 00:32:42.799 and I'm here before the slap came that they're that 561 00:32:42.960 --> 00:32:47.680 same guy tried to kick another male. Somebody got in 562 00:32:47.759 --> 00:32:51.400 between them, tried to de escalate it, say go on, 563 00:32:52.200 --> 00:32:56.119 leave it alone, all right, Well this same guy went 564 00:32:56.160 --> 00:33:00.119 and slapped found another black guy to slap. So that's 565 00:33:00.119 --> 00:33:04.319 two incident that I'm hearing that this guy had calls, 566 00:33:04.640 --> 00:33:08.599 but yet he still haven't been arrested for assault whatever 567 00:33:08.640 --> 00:33:12.200 the reason question says lawyer say, you can't even talk 568 00:33:12.279 --> 00:33:15.400 to him, and I'm like, okay, we're going to the lawyer. 569 00:33:15.440 --> 00:33:17.440 You get the position to stop. 570 00:33:17.160 --> 00:33:20.640 The police from issuing an assault arrest. 571 00:33:21.400 --> 00:33:24.039 Well, we could assert as fifth moment right to be 572 00:33:24.079 --> 00:33:27.039 free of self incrimination, I suppose with an interview if 573 00:33:27.039 --> 00:33:28.799 he's gout who's lawyered up. It doesn't mean he's not 574 00:33:28.799 --> 00:33:32.279 going to get charged, but I mean your predicate in 575 00:33:32.319 --> 00:33:35.640 your initial statement is I'm hearing I'm here, and I 576 00:33:35.720 --> 00:33:39.039 am hearing similar things, but I'm also hearing things that 577 00:33:39.160 --> 00:33:42.759 run counter to what you're hearing, which results in me 578 00:33:42.839 --> 00:33:45.160 concluding that I don't have all the fact yet. In 579 00:33:45.200 --> 00:33:47.279 spite of this, it's been since the twenty sixth, the 580 00:33:47.359 --> 00:33:50.960 last month, so more video camera comes out. We've got 581 00:33:50.960 --> 00:33:54.160 grand jury indictments being handed down. Obviously they found probable 582 00:33:54.200 --> 00:33:57.039 cause to charge some with the crimes. Let's see if 583 00:33:57.039 --> 00:34:01.000 anybody else gets gets arrested or accused of criminal conduct. 584 00:34:01.240 --> 00:34:04.119 I'm waiting. I got my popcorn out, James. I haven't 585 00:34:04.119 --> 00:34:06.759 put it away, and I haven't drawn any conclusions yet, 586 00:34:09.000 --> 00:34:12.000 but nothing can justify criminal behavior along the lines of 587 00:34:12.039 --> 00:34:16.599 what we see, regardless of who gets blamed for starting 588 00:34:16.599 --> 00:34:19.840 the incident or kicking off the incident. Back go to 589 00:34:19.920 --> 00:34:22.199 stacker stupid. This is a pretty comical one in spite 590 00:34:22.239 --> 00:34:24.239 of the fact that we resulted in two people dad, 591 00:34:24.360 --> 00:34:27.559 a man and a woman are in fact dad after 592 00:34:27.599 --> 00:34:29.639 a car they were believed to be having sex in 593 00:34:30.960 --> 00:34:35.920 fell off a cliff. Pair identified as twenty six year 594 00:34:35.960 --> 00:34:39.519 old Marconi da Silva Cardozo and forty two year old 595 00:34:39.840 --> 00:34:46.039 Adriana Mocado Raberio. We're in Vandanova do Immigrante. This is 596 00:34:46.079 --> 00:34:49.960 in Brazil. Happened on Monday last when they were parked 597 00:34:49.960 --> 00:34:54.400 near a scenic overlook. According to the article, apparent movement 598 00:34:55.199 --> 00:34:58.880 from an intimate moment in their vehicles caused it to 599 00:34:59.000 --> 00:35:03.480 drop hundreds of feet. Cardos and Roberio headed towards the 600 00:35:03.519 --> 00:35:06.440 area where the ground was wet after leaving a party 601 00:35:07.239 --> 00:35:10.519 freezing in the car fell down a hang gliding ramp 602 00:35:11.719 --> 00:35:14.639 vehicle located late in the morning by local caretaker. Man 603 00:35:14.679 --> 00:35:17.239 and a woman found naked in the vehicle. Courting Lydia 604 00:35:17.360 --> 00:35:20.599 The Sun reported the police that leave the vehicle fell 605 00:35:20.639 --> 00:35:22.679 around one o'clock in the morning local time. The man 606 00:35:22.719 --> 00:35:25.559 and the woman were thrown roughly three hundred and twenty 607 00:35:25.639 --> 00:35:31.320 eight feet. Bodies found the base of a rock. You're right, Joe, 608 00:35:31.440 --> 00:35:34.760 roughly three hundred and twenty eight does sound very specific. 609 00:35:39.800 --> 00:35:42.119 Pairs bodies found on the base of a rock. Vehicle 610 00:35:42.159 --> 00:35:45.239 parts scattered all around the nearby vegucatation corner of the 611 00:35:45.239 --> 00:35:47.440 press release, there were no signs of violence at the 612 00:35:47.480 --> 00:35:51.159 scene on the bodies and the car's handbrake was engaged. 613 00:35:52.800 --> 00:35:55.039 They said. Residents reported hearing a loud noise between one 614 00:35:55.079 --> 00:35:56.800 thirty in the morning and two am. Because it was 615 00:35:56.920 --> 00:35:59.199 dark and the vegetation thick, no one saw anything at 616 00:35:59.199 --> 00:36:03.920 the time. It remains under investigation. The case does waiting 617 00:36:03.920 --> 00:36:08.760 for forensic reports. Photographs show the vehicle destroyed after a 618 00:36:08.840 --> 00:36:11.679 plunge several hundred feet off the cliff. One woman witness 619 00:36:12.079 --> 00:36:14.400 I saw the car's engine very far away and the 620 00:36:14.400 --> 00:36:17.119 car fell almost four hundred and fifty feet from the 621 00:36:17.239 --> 00:36:19.920 accident was a shocking scene. The car was destroyed. 622 00:36:23.400 --> 00:36:24.280 The aerograph. 623 00:36:24.559 --> 00:36:28.679 Yeah, I guess mind where you park?

Coming up up on 636 00:37:02.880 --> 00:37:05.320 the fifty five KRSE Morning Show, Fast forward one hour. 637 00:37:05.400 --> 00:37:07.719 Ken Cober FLP president, got a petition to get rid 638 00:37:07.760 --> 00:37:13.119 of Iris Rawley. Yeah, outspoken anti police activist Iris RAWLEI 639 00:37:13.719 --> 00:37:17.719 coming under some serious criticism and justified interfering with police 640 00:37:17.719 --> 00:37:20.960 officers trying to perform their duties, which I think is 641 00:37:20.960 --> 00:37:23.199 a citable offense. Going to ask that from FLP president 642 00:37:23.239 --> 00:37:24.960 directly out of the gate, like, how come she was 643 00:37:25.000 --> 00:37:27.679 an issue to citation if she's interfering with police officers. 644 00:37:28.320 --> 00:37:32.119 Legitimate question. So Ken on that topic coming up in 645 00:37:32.119 --> 00:37:36.239 an hour, followed by Christopher's Nope, maybe just asking out 646 00:37:36.280 --> 00:37:38.159 loud if it's a good idea.

When he's got a record he can run 648 00:37:42.920 --> 00:37:45.440 on former Vice mayor of the City of Cincinnati, obviously 649 00:37:45.480 --> 00:37:48.599 here on the morning show, regularly, all over media, regularly 650 00:37:48.679 --> 00:37:52.280 with his thoughts and comments, expressing logic and reason and 651 00:37:52.320 --> 00:37:54.760 coming up with solutions for some of the Cincinnati's problems. 652 00:37:54.760 --> 00:37:57.320 So vote Smithman is what I say.

Again, feel 667 00:38:50.239 --> 00:38:53.280 free to call here's an interesting solution and tell me 668 00:38:53.320 --> 00:38:57.199 if you think this is a good idea. Obviously, the 669 00:38:57.280 --> 00:38:59.719 City of Cincinnati decided it's going to start enforcing the 670 00:39:00.159 --> 00:39:02.159 few one of the things that comes out of the 671 00:39:02.320 --> 00:39:05.280 August or the July twenty sixth beatdown that happened in 672 00:39:05.320 --> 00:39:09.639 downtown Cincinnati, and many of my listeners recognize and I 673 00:39:09.679 --> 00:39:12.920 acknowledge the juveniles were not a problem. They the juveniles 674 00:39:12.920 --> 00:39:14.960 were not involved at least don't appear to be involved 675 00:39:14.960 --> 00:39:19.079 in the beatdown. But they did nonetheless change the curfew 676 00:39:19.400 --> 00:39:21.920 and said that the same police will now be enforcing 677 00:39:21.960 --> 00:39:25.519 it to some degree. Well, that's solve the problem. How 678 00:39:25.559 --> 00:39:30.840 about this? Is this a good idea? Uh? We get 679 00:39:30.880 --> 00:39:35.440 a Gloucester township in New Jersey, They just recently enacted 680 00:39:35.440 --> 00:39:40.719 an ordinance holding parents accountable for lawbreaking children. Parents now 681 00:39:40.719 --> 00:39:43.639 facing fines up to two thousand dollars in the possibility 682 00:39:43.639 --> 00:39:46.159 of a ninety day term behind bars if their children 683 00:39:46.239 --> 00:39:47.880 are continually misbehaving. 684 00:39:49.559 --> 00:39:49.800 Hmm. 685 00:39:51.079 --> 00:39:53.159 Accord to the article from New Jersey dot Com, the 686 00:39:53.320 --> 00:39:57.039 ordinance includes twenty eight offenses that could make caretakers liable. 687 00:39:57.840 --> 00:40:02.920 They range from felonies, loitering, break curfew, chronic truancy to immorality, 688 00:40:03.000 --> 00:40:09.199 habitual vagrancy, and knowingly associating with immoral people. Okay, I 689 00:40:09.239 --> 00:40:11.960 got a beg question marks swirling about what constitutes an 690 00:40:12.000 --> 00:40:16.480 immoral person under the law anyway. The report said teenagers 691 00:40:16.519 --> 00:40:18.480 and juveniles in the area have been committing variety of 692 00:40:18.519 --> 00:40:22.119 these offenses. The town's twenty twenty four Gloucester Township Day 693 00:40:22.400 --> 00:40:25.639 upended when over five hundred miners were involved in a 694 00:40:25.679 --> 00:40:29.119 brawl spilling over to a shopping plaza. Police arrested nineteenagers, 695 00:40:29.159 --> 00:40:32.199 among eleven others taken into custody. Three officers were hurt 696 00:40:32.199 --> 00:40:35.400 in that melee. Video footy shows a group of young 697 00:40:35.400 --> 00:40:39.039 people throwing objects at the front of businesses. Officials postponed 698 00:40:39.079 --> 00:40:41.840 the event this year because of social media posts indicating 699 00:40:41.880 --> 00:40:45.760 that that was going to happen again this year, So 700 00:40:46.840 --> 00:40:50.800 the police announced this new ordinance in a social media post. 701 00:40:50.840 --> 00:40:53.760 If a child is reportedly found guilty in juvenile court, 702 00:40:54.599 --> 00:40:57.159 their caretaker could face up the ninety days in prison 703 00:40:57.199 --> 00:41:00.360 and or fine of up to two thousand dollars. Ordinance 704 00:41:00.400 --> 00:41:06.480 takes effects immediately. One person quota, these are your children. 705 00:41:06.840 --> 00:41:09.719 Had you governed them a certain way, this ordinance wouldn't 706 00:41:09.760 --> 00:41:15.920 be necessary. As a parent, I think it's absolutely necessary. Yeah, 707 00:41:16.360 --> 00:41:19.480 So is that a solution to the problem holding parents accountable? 708 00:41:19.840 --> 00:41:20.039 You know? 709 00:41:20.079 --> 00:41:21.679 And I think about that you want to hold your 710 00:41:21.719 --> 00:41:24.639 parents criminally accountable for what their children are doing. Maybe 711 00:41:24.639 --> 00:41:28.719 a difficult leap. But if these are minor children who 712 00:41:28.719 --> 00:41:32.440 are out after hours of violating the law on the books, 713 00:41:32.440 --> 00:41:35.760 which is the curfew law, wouldn't you think? I mean, 714 00:41:36.239 --> 00:41:39.039 if involved an infant child or abuse along those lines, 715 00:41:39.039 --> 00:41:41.400 the Department of Child and Family Services to be called in. 716 00:41:41.559 --> 00:41:43.400 Is it too late when the child's a teenager to 717 00:41:43.400 --> 00:41:45.079 call in that group to find out what's going on 718 00:41:45.119 --> 00:41:51.000 at home? Maybe lack of a sufficient parenting I don't know, 719 00:41:52.960 --> 00:41:56.079 but it certainly would make parents who otherwise don't care 720 00:41:56.119 --> 00:41:59.079 about where their children are at night maybe start thinking 721 00:41:59.119 --> 00:42:02.800 about it. I don't want a two thousand dollars fine 722 00:42:02.800 --> 00:42:04.360 and I don't want to go to jail for up 723 00:42:04.400 --> 00:42:09.159 to ninety days. Yeah. Well, actions have consequences, or in 724 00:42:09.239 --> 00:42:11.760 action at least in New Jersey are going to have consequences. 725 00:42:11.840 --> 00:42:16.320 Gloucester Township specifically five three, seven, four nine fifty five hundred, 726 00:42:16.360 --> 00:42:18.239 eight hundred and eighty two to three dog pound five 727 00:42:18.280 --> 00:42:23.760 fifty on AT and T phones and also another thing 728 00:42:23.840 --> 00:42:26.519 you might want to chime in on, Donald Trump considering 729 00:42:26.920 --> 00:42:34.559 reclassifying marijuana under the Federal Drug scheduling hmmm, described as 730 00:42:34.639 --> 00:42:37.960 maybe reclassified as a less dangerous drug speaking with attendees 731 00:42:38.000 --> 00:42:40.760 at his one million dollar played fundraiser in New Jersey, 732 00:42:41.360 --> 00:42:52.039 many of whom were in the weed industry. H Apparently 733 00:42:52.440 --> 00:42:55.360 the cannabis companies have pumped in millions of dollars into 734 00:42:55.480 --> 00:42:58.960 Donald Trump's political groups and political action committees of quart 735 00:42:58.960 --> 00:43:02.400 of it. Maybe that's the reason behind this potential moved 736 00:43:02.440 --> 00:43:05.760 to remove marijuana from the list of Schedule one controlled substances. 737 00:43:05.840 --> 00:43:08.760 Making it a Schedule three drug will make it a 738 00:43:08.800 --> 00:43:13.079 lot easier to buy and sell cannabis. Also been several 739 00:43:13.119 --> 00:43:17.079 bills introduced by in Congress by Democrats and Republicans bipartisanship 740 00:43:17.400 --> 00:43:19.800 to either lower the classification of weed to a Schedule 741 00:43:19.840 --> 00:43:21.760 three drug or remove it completely from the list of 742 00:43:21.800 --> 00:43:27.119 controlled substances. They've also sought to decriminalize marijuana. Forty states 743 00:43:27.199 --> 00:43:30.760 so far have legalized marijuana. Twenty four states plus Washington, 744 00:43:30.840 --> 00:43:33.639 d C. Have also legalized recreational marijuana, as we have 745 00:43:33.800 --> 00:43:36.599 done here in the state of Ohio. Now, more and 746 00:43:36.639 --> 00:43:39.920 more information research is coming out with the decriminalizing it 747 00:43:40.039 --> 00:43:42.400 in states, and we're finding out that marijuana may not 748 00:43:42.519 --> 00:43:44.760 be as innocuous a drug as they've painted it out 749 00:43:44.800 --> 00:43:49.320 to be. So you hit all the propaganda coming out 750 00:43:49.320 --> 00:43:53.239 about medical marijuana, medical medical medical medical marijuana. Well, we'll 751 00:43:53.280 --> 00:43:55.519 just legalize it for medical use. You'll need a prescription 752 00:43:55.679 --> 00:43:59.199 for that. It's great for certain medical conditions, anxiety or 753 00:43:59.280 --> 00:44:01.960 depression or whatever, and so you legitimize it by rolling 754 00:44:02.000 --> 00:44:03.679 it out as a medical product, and then of course 755 00:44:04.079 --> 00:44:06.960 segue over to full legalization. Again. That worked quite well 756 00:44:07.000 --> 00:44:09.719 here in the state of Ohio. But more and more 757 00:44:09.840 --> 00:44:11.960 people smoking weed, the more and more we find out 758 00:44:12.199 --> 00:44:18.280 yew could be very dangerous, most notably to young, developing minds. 759 00:44:18.360 --> 00:44:19.760 This is why parents need to keep an eye on 760 00:44:19.800 --> 00:44:22.239 their children and what they're getting involved with. They've learned 761 00:44:22.280 --> 00:44:24.679 a lot about this with alcohol use over the years. Yes, 762 00:44:24.800 --> 00:44:29.239 in a developing mind, alcohol is very dangerous, so pivot 763 00:44:29.280 --> 00:44:32.920 over to marijuana. Apparently the same thing. Psychosis can develop, 764 00:44:33.760 --> 00:44:39.159 among other problems. So I don't know whether decriminalizing on 765 00:44:39.239 --> 00:44:42.519 a federal level is an effort worth pursuing or what 766 00:44:42.679 --> 00:44:44.320 the end result is going to be. I think the 767 00:44:44.400 --> 00:44:46.360 genies out of the bottle, as noted by the number 768 00:44:46.400 --> 00:44:50.559 of states who provided some form of legalization, complete decriminalization. 769 00:44:50.800 --> 00:44:53.320 So if the genies out of the bottle, maybe get 770 00:44:53.400 --> 00:44:55.760 rid of the Schedule one classification and in so doing, 771 00:44:56.639 --> 00:44:58.719 the one nice benefit that you and I can enjoy 772 00:44:58.800 --> 00:45:01.880 from that is more research will be done. The fact 773 00:45:01.920 --> 00:45:04.400 that it's labeled to Schedule one drug, which makes it 774 00:45:04.480 --> 00:45:08.639 on the same order or degree as heroin. Yeah, that 775 00:45:08.719 --> 00:45:10.960 limits the amount of research you'll be done because researchers 776 00:45:11.000 --> 00:45:14.400 can't get acquire this readily available product to do studies 777 00:45:14.440 --> 00:45:18.039 on it. So more studies are definitely needed along those lines. 778 00:45:18.079 --> 00:45:20.800 And maybe I'll welcome the change in schedules, if for 779 00:45:21.000 --> 00:45:24.079 no other reason but that one right there, Feel free 780 00:45:24.119 --> 00:45:26.320 to chime in five one, three, seven, four, nine fifty, 781 00:45:26.360 --> 00:45:28.360 five hundred, eight hundred and eighty two to three talk 782 00:45:28.519 --> 00:45:31.000 or pound five fifty on at and T Phonts love 783 00:45:31.039 --> 00:45:32.480 to hear from if you've got a comment. More to 784 00:45:32.519 --> 00:45:36.760 talk about coming up. But first, pain you get out 785 00:45:36.800 --> 00:45:39.039 of bed. It starts right away, doesn't it. Yep, right 786 00:45:39.119 --> 00:45:42.199 up the knees in the back, screaming at you, maybe 787 00:45:42.280 --> 00:45:44.000 walking down the flight of stairs after you get out 788 00:45:44.039 --> 00:45:44.760 of bed, groaning. 789 00:45:44.880 --> 00:45:45.079 Yep. 790 00:45:46.079 --> 00:45:49.239 You've been to the doctor, You've gotten pain medications like steroids, 791 00:45:49.320 --> 00:45:51.920 maybe some pills. The numb the pain numbing does not 792 00:45:52.079 --> 00:45:57.239 get rid of the underlying cause. Nothing changes. The steroids 793 00:45:57.280 --> 00:45:59.239 wear off, the pain meds wear off, and you're back 794 00:45:59.320 --> 00:46:01.000 on that wagon. And again, maybe you're talking to your 795 00:46:01.039 --> 00:46:03.800 doctor about surgery. No, talk to the doctors at QC 796 00:46:03.960 --> 00:46:07.159 Kinetics before you make that call.

Brian, welcome to the show. Thanks 816 00:47:03.000 --> 00:47:03.880 for calling me this morning. 817 00:47:04.760 --> 00:47:06.480 Hey, good morning, Brian, Happy Monday. 818 00:47:06.679 --> 00:47:07.639 Right back at you, brother. 819 00:47:09.119 --> 00:47:14.440 Yeah yeah. Places like New Jersey Democrats strongholds, they make 820 00:47:14.559 --> 00:47:16.840 laws like this and it just makes me chuckle. So, 821 00:47:17.639 --> 00:47:20.960 so my child decides to transition, get an abortion, go 822 00:47:21.119 --> 00:47:23.559 on birth control, or you're gonna teach them something I 823 00:47:23.679 --> 00:47:27.119 don't like. You're not telling me a thing, But when 824 00:47:27.199 --> 00:47:29.880 my child acts up, you want to hold me accountable. 825 00:47:30.400 --> 00:47:31.639 You can't have it both ways. 826 00:47:32.440 --> 00:47:34.719 Well, I suppose you might be to link those concepts. 827 00:47:36.239 --> 00:47:38.199 Well, if you're not gonna tell me my child the 828 00:47:38.239 --> 00:47:40.760 school's gonna hide from me, to my child's gonna wants 829 00:47:40.840 --> 00:47:46.400 to transition, well, and you're supporting that, but you're not 830 00:47:46.519 --> 00:47:48.880 gonna tell me you're hiding it from me. But then 831 00:47:49.320 --> 00:47:52.480 if my child does something wrong and you want me 832 00:47:52.559 --> 00:47:55.039 to be held accountable, I mean, you can't have it 833 00:47:55.119 --> 00:47:58.119 both ways, it's either I'm involved in my child's. 834 00:47:57.840 --> 00:48:00.679 Life or I'm not well. One is a crime and 835 00:48:00.760 --> 00:48:03.039 the other one arguably isn't. Although I guess there's a 836 00:48:03.079 --> 00:48:07.519 debate on whether transitioning could be considered criminal, but you know, 837 00:48:08.119 --> 00:48:10.599 I guess the left use that as a lifestyle choice. 838 00:48:10.599 --> 00:48:12.360 There's nothing, no law in the books that prevents that 839 00:48:12.440 --> 00:48:16.280 transitioning from happening. But there are criminal laws on the books, 840 00:48:16.320 --> 00:48:19.360 and children are regularly breaking the criminal laws. And if 841 00:48:19.400 --> 00:48:22.039 you're made aware that your child is a recidivous lawbreaker 842 00:48:22.119 --> 00:48:24.599 and you do nothing to stop it from happening, you 843 00:48:24.760 --> 00:48:27.599 do nothing to keep them in the house after curfew 844 00:48:27.719 --> 00:48:31.000 rolls around, and maybe there is some possible accountability there 845 00:48:31.440 --> 00:48:34.880 for violating criminal law. I understand your frustration on along 846 00:48:34.960 --> 00:48:37.480 those lines, and the allowing of children to make these 847 00:48:37.599 --> 00:48:41.719 life changing decisions without any parental involvement as disturbing as hell. 848 00:48:42.239 --> 00:48:44.840 But honestly, if a parent does not care if the 849 00:48:44.920 --> 00:48:47.199 child's out at three o'clock in the morning on a weeknight, 850 00:48:47.920 --> 00:48:50.199 then I doubt they probably care a wit whether their 851 00:48:50.280 --> 00:48:54.360 child is transitioning to a different gender. Possible, let us 852 00:48:54.360 --> 00:48:56.719 see what Bobby's got this morning. Bobby, Happy Monday till you. 853 00:48:56.800 --> 00:48:57.400 Thanks for calling. 854 00:48:58.559 --> 00:49:02.599 Good morning, my brother Monday to you, I said, it 855 00:49:02.719 --> 00:49:06.440 was another ratty tat weekend we had in Cincinnati. Fifty 856 00:49:06.519 --> 00:49:07.599 some shots fired. 857 00:49:07.960 --> 00:49:10.239 Yeah, Steve Gooden posting that you wouldn't know it from 858 00:49:10.480 --> 00:49:13.559 local media reporting because apparently no reporting on that. Fifty 859 00:49:13.639 --> 00:49:16.559 shots fired along Clark Street by the football field, hitting 860 00:49:16.599 --> 00:49:19.599 park cars in at least one house. So he said, 861 00:49:19.639 --> 00:49:20.679 automatic gunfire. 862 00:49:23.199 --> 00:49:25.920 Well, when you hold thirty round bags in those sem 863 00:49:26.039 --> 00:49:28.840 sixty two but thirty nine hand held pistols they got, 864 00:49:28.920 --> 00:49:30.840 they can fire off a lot of them pretty quick. 865 00:49:31.039 --> 00:49:32.800 Yeah. Can't you empty a thirty round bag in a 866 00:49:32.840 --> 00:49:34.159 matter of just a couple of seconds? 867 00:49:34.440 --> 00:49:38.159 Bobby, That doesn't take very long, my friend, as quick 868 00:49:38.199 --> 00:49:39.280 as you can pull the trigger. 869 00:49:39.840 --> 00:49:42.440 Not. Is that not very accurate though? Spray and pray. 870 00:49:42.719 --> 00:49:46.719 No, that's all it is. I'll tell you what. Until 871 00:49:46.800 --> 00:49:50.119 they correct the problem, the problem's not gonna get corrected. 872 00:49:50.599 --> 00:49:53.239 The problem making it at the top. The problem being 873 00:49:53.440 --> 00:49:57.599 correct the violence in Cincinnati. It's in the top five 874 00:49:58.159 --> 00:49:59.880 most violent cities per capit. 875 00:50:00.440 --> 00:50:02.639 Okay, but how do we fix the problem of violence? 876 00:50:02.679 --> 00:50:06.159 I mean, you know, I understand taking steps toward holding 877 00:50:06.199 --> 00:50:08.719 people accountable, like, for example, the New York New Jersey 878 00:50:08.800 --> 00:50:11.440 law which is in an effect here, but enforcing curfew, 879 00:50:11.519 --> 00:50:13.920 for example, gets kids off of the streets where they're 880 00:50:14.000 --> 00:50:18.760 up to no good fine, but the motive behind the 881 00:50:18.840 --> 00:50:23.159 criminal behavior this lawless attitude. People have, this disregard for 882 00:50:23.800 --> 00:50:26.880 the law generally speaking. That's a problem that's so broad 883 00:50:27.000 --> 00:50:30.199 and has so many layers and elements behind it. How 884 00:50:30.239 --> 00:50:30.880 do you fix that? 885 00:50:32.360 --> 00:50:35.280 You have to run it like an insurgency. You cannot 886 00:50:35.360 --> 00:50:37.280 be nice. You have to run it like you would 887 00:50:37.320 --> 00:50:39.800 a military operation. You got to find out who the 888 00:50:39.880 --> 00:50:44.079 people are, where they're at, where they're going. It's easy 889 00:50:44.199 --> 00:50:46.239 to do, but the city's not going to do it 890 00:50:46.320 --> 00:50:48.920 because they're part of the problem. Well, going back, going 891 00:50:49.000 --> 00:50:52.519 to advertise their problem, Well you say, I guarantee you 892 00:50:52.599 --> 00:50:57.760 I got people correct the problem real quick without anything negative, 893 00:50:58.079 --> 00:51:02.719 all positive investigating. But you gotta know who these people are. 894 00:51:02.800 --> 00:51:03.159 And if you. 895 00:51:03.159 --> 00:51:05.599 Eliminate a promise one you don't have get them out 896 00:51:05.639 --> 00:51:07.599 of your community. Right. They don't want to do that. 897 00:51:07.880 --> 00:51:11.239 You say, identify who these people are, or around up 898 00:51:11.440 --> 00:51:13.280 who these people are, and you say that, they claim 899 00:51:13.320 --> 00:51:16.039 they know if someone has an outstanding arrest warrant and 900 00:51:16.119 --> 00:51:18.440 a police officer knows where that person is, yes, they 901 00:51:18.440 --> 00:51:20.920 should be out arresting that person. But if a person 902 00:51:21.000 --> 00:51:22.719 does not have an a restaurant. I made this point 903 00:51:22.760 --> 00:51:24.880 the other day. You give a rap sheet a mile 904 00:51:24.960 --> 00:51:28.840 long if you have served your time or otherwise complied 905 00:51:28.920 --> 00:51:31.800 with whatever a judicial rendering is or disposition is. In 906 00:51:31.880 --> 00:51:34.280 that case, you're in front of a judge. The judge said, 907 00:51:34.280 --> 00:51:36.880 you're on probation. You're on probation, you keep your nose clean, 908 00:51:36.920 --> 00:51:39.960 you're no longer on probation. That is on your quote 909 00:51:40.039 --> 00:51:43.320 unquote rap sheet. That doesn't give police the authority to 910 00:51:43.400 --> 00:51:45.880 pick you up for just being having a rap sheet 911 00:51:45.960 --> 00:51:48.960 that's long. Quite often you have recidivous criminals who end 912 00:51:49.039 --> 00:51:50.880 up in front of a judge on multiple occasions. You're 913 00:51:50.920 --> 00:51:52.480 sitting there going, well, how in the hell is this 914 00:51:52.599 --> 00:51:55.840 person not in jail. Well, it's because due process hasn't 915 00:51:55.880 --> 00:51:57.880 been worked through the system. They haven't had their day 916 00:51:57.920 --> 00:52:01.159 in trial, they haven't had their witnesses show up or 917 00:52:01.199 --> 00:52:02.639 be in front of a jury or a judge the 918 00:52:02.719 --> 00:52:05.800 try or fact to render a conclusion. They're not guilty 919 00:52:06.000 --> 00:52:09.280 at that moment in time. It's very complicated matter with it. 920 00:52:10.159 --> 00:52:11.960 I agree with you, but you need to know who 921 00:52:12.119 --> 00:52:15.840 they are and where they're at and everything else. And 922 00:52:15.920 --> 00:52:18.280 it's easy to do. But the city can't do that. 923 00:52:18.599 --> 00:52:20.440 They're legally not allowed to do it. 924 00:52:20.880 --> 00:52:21.039 Right. 925 00:52:21.119 --> 00:52:24.360 You pop a spider in a six block area and 926 00:52:24.480 --> 00:52:27.320 I'll tell you every human being it has a cell 927 00:52:27.400 --> 00:52:30.039 phone in that area, and you can track them every 928 00:52:30.119 --> 00:52:32.760 seven and a half fifteen minutes, know where they go, 929 00:52:33.000 --> 00:52:35.480 where they're at, and where they've been. Well, it's all legal. 930 00:52:35.639 --> 00:52:37.320 How would you feel if you were one of the 931 00:52:37.360 --> 00:52:39.679 people being tracked? You say, Bobby would be like, wait 932 00:52:39.679 --> 00:52:42.039 a second, I don't have a criminal record. Why am 933 00:52:42.039 --> 00:52:45.039 I under surveillance? Well, we've been tracking you because oh 934 00:52:45.159 --> 00:52:46.639 I don't know the comments you meant in the fifty 935 00:52:46.679 --> 00:52:49.039 five krs in morning show or something. I mean, what 936 00:52:49.280 --> 00:52:51.679 gives them the right to see a quote unquote track 937 00:52:52.360 --> 00:52:55.840 or otherwise round someone up? What is the legal predicate 938 00:52:55.960 --> 00:52:58.440 for that? That's what I want to know the city. 939 00:52:59.000 --> 00:53:01.039 The city doesn't have the right to do that. But 940 00:53:01.199 --> 00:53:04.639 independent people do you pop a spider. I don't know 941 00:53:04.760 --> 00:53:07.920 your name, I don't know your phone number. You've got 942 00:53:08.000 --> 00:53:11.039 a customer number, and I know exactly where you go, 943 00:53:11.679 --> 00:53:14.679 how long you've been there. Anytime I want to set 944 00:53:14.719 --> 00:53:17.239 it up on a computer, I know exactly where that 945 00:53:17.400 --> 00:53:21.519 phone's at, and that way I know where you're at. Well, 946 00:53:21.760 --> 00:53:24.039 you have a name on it or a phone number, 947 00:53:24.400 --> 00:53:26.000 but I do have a tracking number. 948 00:53:26.400 --> 00:53:28.679 I'm at a loss to know how that what good 949 00:53:28.760 --> 00:53:29.719 that's going to possibly do? 950 00:53:32.320 --> 00:53:34.400 In seventy two hours, I can tell you who the 951 00:53:34.480 --> 00:53:36.559 criminals are, where they're at, and where they're. 952 00:53:36.440 --> 00:53:41.280 Going the criminals suggesting that a crime has been perpetrated 953 00:53:41.320 --> 00:53:44.280 by one of these unnamed, unknown individuals that you're tracking 954 00:53:44.440 --> 00:53:47.960 generally throughout the day every day. Sorry, Bobby, You're I 955 00:53:48.119 --> 00:53:50.519 just I can't make heads or tails out of what 956 00:53:50.559 --> 00:53:54.239 you're really proposing here. Sorry, man, If you know. 957 00:53:54.320 --> 00:53:56.519 Where, if you know where the people are, you know 958 00:53:56.639 --> 00:54:00.760 exactly what they're going to do. What people the people criminals? 959 00:54:01.039 --> 00:54:04.000 The criminals, Well, again, that suggests that they are they 960 00:54:04.119 --> 00:54:06.480 have committed a crime, or that a warrant is out, 961 00:54:06.519 --> 00:54:09.480 or that you know that that particular person there's probable 962 00:54:09.559 --> 00:54:11.840 cause to believe they should be picked up for creative 963 00:54:11.920 --> 00:54:16.760 for committing a crime. And if that exists, then the 964 00:54:16.800 --> 00:54:19.519 police should do it. But in the absence of underlying 965 00:54:19.559 --> 00:54:22.519 criminal activity or allegations of it, they can be justified 966 00:54:22.599 --> 00:54:26.119 for the warrant i e. Probable cause. Then you've got 967 00:54:26.199 --> 00:54:29.119 no right or ability to pick them up, regardless of 968 00:54:29.119 --> 00:54:32.000 what's in their background.

Yes, and they had an in Congress, 1008 00:56:12.039 --> 00:56:17.119 but then it was classified. Well Mike, uh, yeah, Donald 1009 00:56:17.159 --> 00:56:20.239 Trump has the power to declassify stuff, did he go 1010 00:56:20.480 --> 00:56:23.719 to Donald Trump and said, hey, we have information that 1011 00:56:23.880 --> 00:56:25.000 will exonerate you. 1012 00:56:25.599 --> 00:56:28.000 Yes, but it's classified.

So, 1085 01:00:16.639 --> 01:00:19.920 whether it's an echo cardiogram, mri, CT scanner, ultrasound or 1086 01:00:20.159 --> 01:00:22.320 X ray, go to one of the two affordable imaging 1087 01:00:22.440 --> 01:00:24.800 locations and get it done for a mere fraction. Every 1088 01:00:24.880 --> 01:00:28.199 image comes with a board certified radiologist report in the price, 1089 01:00:29.000 --> 01:00:31.519 so rather than thirty five hundred dollars for the echo cardiogram. 1090 01:00:31.719 --> 01:00:35.599 How about five hundred without an enhancement or eight hundred 1091 01:00:35.599 --> 01:00:38.719 with an enhancement of affordable imaging services. Thousands of dollars 1092 01:00:38.800 --> 01:00:41.000 can be saved. So do the right thing, save money. 1093 01:00:41.079 --> 01:00:44.840 Low overhead, yes, but don't pay for overhead, same equipment, 1094 01:00:45.000 --> 01:00:48.440 same smart people operating it.

Fifty five care Sea dot com. Jay, 1106 01:01:26.960 --> 01:01:29.079 welcome back to the morning show, my friend. Happy Monday 1107 01:01:29.119 --> 01:01:29.239 to you. 1108 01:01:30.280 --> 01:01:31.360 Hey, good morning Brian. 1109 01:01:31.880 --> 01:01:32.000 Hey. 1110 01:01:32.039 --> 01:01:33.440 I want to say if I could put a finer 1111 01:01:33.519 --> 01:01:37.239 point on the previous callers question about brad Winstrip as 1112 01:01:37.320 --> 01:01:40.119 I understand it, and I'm gonna put chronological order here. 1113 01:01:40.639 --> 01:01:45.480 Twenty sixteen, Hillary Clinton and the Democrat Party brought out 1114 01:01:45.559 --> 01:01:51.400 the Russian pokes against Donald Trump. An investigation. Trump gets elected, 1115 01:01:51.519 --> 01:01:55.320 an investigation has launched. They find out that this is 1116 01:01:55.880 --> 01:01:59.280 just garbage and it was an attempt to overturn a 1117 01:01:59.440 --> 01:02:00.800 free and fair election. 1118 01:02:01.159 --> 01:02:04.760 Yeah, to distract from Hillary Clinton's email server problem, I 1119 01:02:04.840 --> 01:02:07.480 believe was the genesis of this Russian collusion hoax. 1120 01:02:08.599 --> 01:02:14.280 Sure, then in twenty twenty, Joe Biden gets more votes 1121 01:02:14.360 --> 01:02:18.360 than any other president in history, which makes a half 1122 01:02:18.400 --> 01:02:21.840 the country scratch their head and say something's up. 1123 01:02:22.000 --> 01:02:22.920 This can't be right. 1124 01:02:23.760 --> 01:02:27.880 It gets buried. Win Strip's report gets buried for four years, 1125 01:02:29.519 --> 01:02:35.639 and he doesn't come forward because it's classified that we 1126 01:02:35.800 --> 01:02:36.840 may have had two. 1127 01:02:36.840 --> 01:02:37.800 Elections in a row. 1128 01:02:38.079 --> 01:02:42.800 One for sure, one is under a strict or very 1129 01:02:43.519 --> 01:02:49.920 very suspicious circumstances. Joe Biden get getting elected. They the 1130 01:02:50.000 --> 01:02:53.679 whole country gets inflicted with the Biden administration for four years. 1131 01:02:54.159 --> 01:02:59.599 During Trump's first term, the Russia hoax costs the taxpayers 1132 01:03:00.280 --> 01:03:02.559 millions and millions of dollars got in the way of 1133 01:03:02.639 --> 01:03:06.800 Trump's agenda. As he has to keep being distracted and 1134 01:03:06.840 --> 01:03:09.760 the whole country is distracted. Oh yeah, and I think 1135 01:03:09.840 --> 01:03:13.519 the previous caller my question is and Winstrip sat on 1136 01:03:13.639 --> 01:03:16.719 his hands because it was classified and you couldn't come 1137 01:03:16.800 --> 01:03:19.840 forward as a whistleblower. If treason is happening in the country. 1138 01:03:20.800 --> 01:03:23.400 Well, I suppose that's one way of looking at it. 1139 01:03:23.440 --> 01:03:25.559 I can't speak for the congressman's actions or you know, 1140 01:03:25.639 --> 01:03:27.559 the timing of the matter. I just know that it 1141 01:03:27.639 --> 01:03:30.199 has been declassified, which allows me to talk about it now. 1142 01:03:30.239 --> 01:03:32.559 That's why it's been so widely reported. All the pieces 1143 01:03:32.639 --> 01:03:35.320 of the puzzle were finally put together. That coupled with 1144 01:03:35.440 --> 01:03:38.639 the most recent you know, document releases from the Department 1145 01:03:38.719 --> 01:03:41.320 of Justice, so they all add up to one big 1146 01:03:41.440 --> 01:03:44.719 damning you know, development of information, Jay, I you know, 1147 01:03:44.760 --> 01:03:47.519 in terms of classification, how things are declassified, and what 1148 01:03:47.599 --> 01:03:50.199 people's efforts were behind the scenes, if they were trying 1149 01:03:50.239 --> 01:03:53.000 to get it declassified at any given time. Those are 1150 01:03:53.039 --> 01:03:55.800 details I simply do not have, Jay, Honestly, I really don't. 1151 01:03:57.000 --> 01:03:57.800 No, I know you don't. 1152 01:03:57.840 --> 01:03:59.800 I didn't expect you to. But I think the deaths 1153 01:03:59.880 --> 01:04:03.320 the question that we have out here is what's it 1154 01:04:03.440 --> 01:04:07.599 going to take for a Republican congressman to have this information. Yes, 1155 01:04:07.679 --> 01:04:11.320 I understand how serious classified information is. But if you're 1156 01:04:11.320 --> 01:04:13.880 a patriot, for crying out loud and there's treason going on, 1157 01:04:14.559 --> 01:04:17.199 stand up, be heard. If this was the Democrat party, 1158 01:04:17.239 --> 01:04:19.639 they would have leaked it quietly to the press well 1159 01:04:19.760 --> 01:04:22.239 and got all the documents out there, versus sitting on 1160 01:04:22.360 --> 01:04:25.639 your hands and watch the country get destroyed with open 1161 01:04:25.719 --> 01:04:28.320 borders and every vent and all and everything else during 1162 01:04:28.360 --> 01:04:31.760 the Biden administration. For crying out loud, stand up well, 1163 01:04:31.840 --> 01:04:33.559 and you know your whistleblow up protection. 1164 01:04:33.800 --> 01:04:35.880 This is one of those things that Republicans have convinced them, 1165 01:04:36.199 --> 01:04:38.920 have argued Democrats are doing all the time. It's leaked 1166 01:04:39.079 --> 01:04:42.159 to the press, and that leaking confidential information to the press, 1167 01:04:42.199 --> 01:04:46.199 of course, can subject to to criminal charges. So you know, 1168 01:04:46.239 --> 01:04:47.760 if you want to go down that road and risk 1169 01:04:47.800 --> 01:04:50.880 criminal prosecution and the name of patriotism, fine, that's fine. 1170 01:04:52.159 --> 01:04:53.239 Yes, I would say so. 1171 01:04:53.400 --> 01:04:56.400 I would say that's my expectation of a Republican congressman 1172 01:04:56.480 --> 01:05:02.079 if you know treason's going on and classified document the 1173 01:05:02.199 --> 01:05:05.760 classification of classified is keeping your mouth shut while the 1174 01:05:05.800 --> 01:05:09.159 country goes down the tubes. Shame on, Brad Weistrip, stand. 1175 01:05:09.000 --> 01:05:11.159 Up, be a patriot, all right. 1176 01:05:11.239 --> 01:05:13.400 I'll let him address that next time he's on the program. 1177 01:05:13.519 --> 01:05:15.199 He may be listening right now. He can feel free 1178 01:05:15.239 --> 01:05:17.559 to chime in, and if you're listening, you can feel 1179 01:05:17.559 --> 01:05:19.400 free to chime in as well.

Jim, thanks for calling. Happy Monday, Good morning, Brian. 1215 01:06:51.840 --> 01:06:54.719 I have to agree with the previous caller, I got 1216 01:06:55.599 --> 01:07:00.360 Winsterm's a nice guy, but he's got no spine. If 1217 01:07:00.440 --> 01:07:02.239 you watch what he did. We got rid of d 1218 01:07:02.400 --> 01:07:06.480 Schmidt and brought Brad in there. And he would not 1219 01:07:06.599 --> 01:07:08.679 take any stand against the party if he looked at 1220 01:07:08.719 --> 01:07:11.880 his building record, Oh yes, great conservative record, until you 1221 01:07:11.960 --> 01:07:13.880 look at the really important votes. And he wouldn't stand 1222 01:07:13.960 --> 01:07:15.159 up to the party. Do you think he's going to 1223 01:07:15.199 --> 01:07:17.719 stand up for anything else. He's not a Tom Manson 1224 01:07:17.800 --> 01:07:20.960 that stands up on principle. It's just, you know, I'm 1225 01:07:21.000 --> 01:07:23.840 glad he's gone to my rep I'm not sure about day. 1226 01:07:24.440 --> 01:07:28.239 But he had no courage to stand up against anything 1227 01:07:28.320 --> 01:07:29.320 that the party didn't say. 1228 01:07:29.360 --> 01:07:31.960 He couldn't do fair enough, So he wouldn't. 1229 01:07:31.960 --> 01:07:37.320 He wouldn't commit treason because or stand up lay anybody 1230 01:07:37.360 --> 01:07:39.920 out for treason because he didn't have the spine to 1231 01:07:40.000 --> 01:07:40.119 do it. 1232 01:07:40.880 --> 01:07:44.119 Well, you know, yeah, I don't have the problems. I 1233 01:07:44.119 --> 01:07:46.119 don't have a problem people criticizing him. You can draw 1234 01:07:46.159 --> 01:07:48.440 your own conclusions about who the politicians are and how 1235 01:07:48.480 --> 01:07:51.119 they vote on what they do. He isn't the only 1236 01:07:51.280 --> 01:07:55.159 person that was aware of that that document confirming that 1237 01:07:55.280 --> 01:07:57.800 the Democrats in fact created the Russian collusion. Hoaks had 1238 01:07:57.800 --> 01:08:02.119 a whole cloth that was confidential, and he obviously couldn't 1239 01:08:02.159 --> 01:08:04.679 talk about it inspite it because he has security clearance 1240 01:08:04.719 --> 01:08:07.360 and had access to it. He made his decision. You 1241 01:08:07.400 --> 01:08:11.039 can criticize him for it that say, Okay, I wish 1242 01:08:11.119 --> 01:08:12.639 kind of wish he was here to defend himself and 1243 01:08:12.639 --> 01:08:16.039 maybe make an argument to that effect. But right, I mean, 1244 01:08:16.079 --> 01:08:18.000 that's what elections are all about. I mean, you're going 1245 01:08:18.079 --> 01:08:20.560 to throw question, You're going to throw out the good 1246 01:08:20.640 --> 01:08:23.520 for the sake of the perfect, and people quite often 1247 01:08:23.560 --> 01:08:27.359 asked that question out loud when it comes to political choices. Anyhow, 1248 01:08:27.479 --> 01:08:29.640 five one, three, seven, four, nine fifty, five hundred, eight 1249 01:08:29.720 --> 01:08:31.560 hundred and eighty two to three dog found five fifty 1250 01:08:31.560 --> 01:08:34.279 on AT and T phones. Yeah, I'll just go ahead 1251 01:08:34.279 --> 01:08:36.640 and kind of intro this because we're going to get 1252 01:08:36.640 --> 01:08:39.840 to FLP President Ken Kober. They are calling the FOP 1253 01:08:40.199 --> 01:08:43.960 is for Iris Raleigh to be fired. And this what 1254 01:08:44.079 --> 01:08:47.159 this this online petition is being circulated for LEEDG is 1255 01:08:47.239 --> 01:08:51.279 that Raleigh has been caught on bodycam multiple times harassing 1256 01:08:51.399 --> 01:08:56.359 police officers from doing their jobs. At least as yesterday morning, 1257 01:08:56.399 --> 01:09:01.079 twenty nine hundred signatures their goal five thousand court of 1258 01:09:01.079 --> 01:09:05.720 the petition. Despite clear misconduct, the city continues to fund 1259 01:09:05.800 --> 01:09:10.680 her contract with taxpayer dollars. They posted the body camera 1260 01:09:11.439 --> 01:09:15.439 videos showing Raleigh alleged in what they determined its harassing cops. 1261 01:09:17.520 --> 01:09:20.319 Also posted an appearance she made on a podcast where 1262 01:09:20.399 --> 01:09:23.760 she quote wasted no time berating a retired Cincinni police 1263 01:09:23.800 --> 01:09:28.600 officer and the others on the show Close quote. FOP 1264 01:09:28.720 --> 01:09:31.039 also posted all three of the videos in the organization's 1265 01:09:31.079 --> 01:09:33.920 Facebook page, and one post claims Raleigh is not a 1266 01:09:34.079 --> 01:09:38.960 collaborator but an agitator. So we showed one of the 1267 01:09:39.039 --> 01:09:42.079 videos Raleigh asking a man who is being then interviewed 1268 01:09:42.119 --> 01:09:45.520 by Cincinnati police officers, then telling him to pour out 1269 01:09:45.600 --> 01:09:49.119 his spear if he wanted to file a complaint against 1270 01:09:49.119 --> 01:09:51.600 the police officer. Right in the middle of that going on, 1271 01:09:58.520 --> 01:10:04.000 Cheryl on city Manager defending her Her contribution span from 1272 01:10:04.000 --> 01:10:06.159 the origins of the collaborative agreement to her commitment to 1273 01:10:06.199 --> 01:10:09.560 problem solving resulting in support for teens in our transit center. 1274 01:10:10.399 --> 01:10:13.159 She consistently steps up to organize effective strategies and to 1275 01:10:13.239 --> 01:10:16.399 raise her hand to support the community when others don't, 1276 01:10:16.880 --> 01:10:18.680 but long did pivot over to the thing that the 1277 01:10:18.720 --> 01:10:23.239 police officers are dressing in their online petition saying anyone 1278 01:10:23.520 --> 01:10:26.399 doing work on behalf of the city of Cincinnati must 1279 01:10:26.479 --> 01:10:31.199 hold themselves to a higher standard that includes not interfering 1280 01:10:31.239 --> 01:10:33.319 with police who are in the act of performing their 1281 01:10:33.399 --> 01:10:36.199 lawful duties. Thank you, Cheryl Long for addressing the core 1282 01:10:36.279 --> 01:10:44.760 of the problem here. She's part of the purvol administration, 1283 01:10:45.000 --> 01:10:49.039 but she's out interfering with police officers in the act 1284 01:10:49.079 --> 01:10:52.359 of performing their lawful duties. Not a good look for 1285 01:10:52.399 --> 01:10:54.720 a city of Cincinnati that's under the microscope for its 1286 01:10:54.800 --> 01:11:00.720 law enforcement. Some argue failures. Others argue it's perhaps an 1287 01:11:00.720 --> 01:11:05.319 administration's problem because of it's a poor allocation of police resources, 1288 01:11:06.640 --> 01:11:09.199 failure to acknowledge the problem we have in the city 1289 01:11:09.239 --> 01:11:14.039 of Cincinnati, which is one of crime doing the five 1290 01:11:14.159 --> 01:11:17.640 d's of dodgeball.

Hey, good morning, Brian, thanks for having all right. Now, 1310 01:12:33.760 --> 01:12:35.600 if I was out in the middle of the street 1311 01:12:35.640 --> 01:12:37.920 and I saw an officer I don't know, interacting with 1312 01:12:38.279 --> 01:12:40.720 someone in terms of making a stop, doing their job 1313 01:12:40.800 --> 01:12:43.560 and their official capacity as an on duty police officer, 1314 01:12:43.880 --> 01:12:45.960 and I got in the middle of it and interfered 1315 01:12:46.000 --> 01:12:48.720 with the police officer doing his job, would I be 1316 01:12:48.800 --> 01:12:49.960 subject to a citation? 1317 01:12:50.239 --> 01:12:52.920 Ken Cober, Yeah, I mean you'd be subject to a 1318 01:12:53.000 --> 01:12:55.079 citation or subject to arrest for that matter. 1319 01:12:55.439 --> 01:12:58.279 Okay, I guess first question. You have it on video, 1320 01:12:58.319 --> 01:13:02.479 and you circulated a petition to well have Iris Rawley 1321 01:13:02.600 --> 01:13:05.159 described as a consultant to the City of Cincinnati in 1322 01:13:05.239 --> 01:13:07.960 a paid capacity, get her fired from her job, and 1323 01:13:08.039 --> 01:13:11.479 you show a couple of illustrations she's been caught on bodycam, 1324 01:13:11.560 --> 01:13:14.880 which you did post with the you petition for assing 1325 01:13:14.960 --> 01:13:17.720 police officers in the middle of doing their job. Can 1326 01:13:17.760 --> 01:13:19.640 I ask why that she wasn't cited. 1327 01:13:21.439 --> 01:13:24.479 Well, you know, officers had discretion, and in that situation, 1328 01:13:25.359 --> 01:13:28.039 it was clear the officer knew exactly who Iris was 1329 01:13:29.119 --> 01:13:31.840 and thought that it would be better to attempt to 1330 01:13:31.920 --> 01:13:35.079 de escalate the situation than it would be to try 1331 01:13:35.159 --> 01:13:37.319 to arrest her, knowing that it was a likelihood that 1332 01:13:37.439 --> 01:13:40.640 it was going to get worse. So they made what 1333 01:13:40.760 --> 01:13:44.520 I thought was a good decision just to try to 1334 01:13:44.640 --> 01:13:48.159 let it go under the circumstances. But as I've explained 1335 01:13:48.199 --> 01:13:51.840 to the city manager, those circumstances are running out, and 1336 01:13:52.399 --> 01:13:55.319 she should expect the next policeman she comes across and 1337 01:13:55.439 --> 01:13:57.680 tries to do something like that, she will be arrested. 1338 01:13:57.960 --> 01:14:01.319 Yeah, she's on notice now, clearly, most notably because you 1339 01:14:01.359 --> 01:14:04.800 circulated a petition trying to get her fired. Now, she's 1340 01:14:04.840 --> 01:14:07.119 been around since the days of the riots and the 1341 01:14:07.199 --> 01:14:09.600 Collaborative Agreement, and a lot of people, including the city 1342 01:14:09.680 --> 01:14:13.039 manager in responsive petition, you know, gave her props. Is 1343 01:14:13.399 --> 01:14:16.680 a consequence of her activism. But she has been an 1344 01:14:16.720 --> 01:14:19.520 out loud voice against the police department and seems to 1345 01:14:19.640 --> 01:14:22.399 embrace this defund the police kind of strategy. And she's 1346 01:14:22.479 --> 01:14:26.479 certainly an agitator when it comes to well filing complaints 1347 01:14:26.520 --> 01:14:30.239 against police officers who are doing their job. Now, I 1348 01:14:30.880 --> 01:14:33.000 guess I understand why you're trying to ask for her 1349 01:14:33.039 --> 01:14:35.079 to be fired. Do you have any idea what role 1350 01:14:35.199 --> 01:14:37.760 she plays now since the Collaborative Agreement has been around 1351 01:14:37.800 --> 01:14:40.079 for now for what like almost two decades. 1352 01:14:41.439 --> 01:14:44.000 Consultant of the city manager, and that came straight from 1353 01:14:44.039 --> 01:14:46.279 the city manager that she consults her. 1354 01:14:47.359 --> 01:14:48.439 And you know, and that's fine. 1355 01:14:48.520 --> 01:14:50.760 Is all the work that she's done with the collaborative Agreement, 1356 01:14:51.159 --> 01:14:53.159 whether you like it you don't like it, the work 1357 01:14:53.199 --> 01:14:55.039 that she's done can't go un notice. 1358 01:14:55.079 --> 01:14:57.159 However, she's crossed the line. 1359 01:14:57.560 --> 01:14:59.640 You cross the line when you decide that you're going 1360 01:14:59.760 --> 01:15:03.319 to obstruct official business. When the police are out there 1361 01:15:03.479 --> 01:15:05.600 trying to do what they're paid to do, and it's 1362 01:15:05.640 --> 01:15:07.119 something that's just not going to be tolerated. 1363 01:15:07.920 --> 01:15:10.279 I certainly understand that it sounds like the city manager's 1364 01:15:10.319 --> 01:15:13.560 on your site on that, after supporting Iris Rowley and 1365 01:15:13.600 --> 01:15:16.279 everything that she's done on behalf of the city. City 1366 01:15:16.319 --> 01:15:18.560 manager along said anyone doing work on behalf of the 1367 01:15:18.600 --> 01:15:21.720 city of Cincinnati Iris Rowley must hold themselves to a 1368 01:15:21.800 --> 01:15:25.000 higher standard that includes not interfering with police or in 1369 01:15:25.079 --> 01:15:27.800 the act of performing their lawful duties. So even the 1370 01:15:27.880 --> 01:15:30.680 city manager is on your side on this, Kenkober. 1371 01:15:31.600 --> 01:15:33.039 Well, yeah, but we'll see if there's going to be 1372 01:15:33.039 --> 01:15:35.840 any consequence for her actions. That's going to be where 1373 01:15:35.920 --> 01:15:37.760 the proof is in the putting. Is she gonna actually 1374 01:15:37.840 --> 01:15:39.560 do something about it, And that's yet to be seen. 1375 01:15:39.840 --> 01:15:42.199 It is yet to be seen now so far. How 1376 01:15:42.239 --> 01:15:45.520 many signatures do you have on your petition? I looked 1377 01:15:45.520 --> 01:15:47.119 at it's just over thirty four hundred. 1378 01:15:47.880 --> 01:15:50.039 I can tell you I was working the Sccincinnati match 1379 01:15:50.159 --> 01:15:52.680 last night and there are some folks that were talking 1380 01:15:52.720 --> 01:15:54.760 about it said that they fully support the police that 1381 01:15:54.840 --> 01:15:57.720 they've signed it. I've talked to some officers that are 1382 01:15:57.760 --> 01:16:01.319 reluctant to sign it because they believe that somehow the 1383 01:16:01.399 --> 01:16:03.399 city is going to get this information and that they 1384 01:16:03.520 --> 01:16:06.159 will try to retaliate against them if they do sign it. 1385 01:16:06.640 --> 01:16:08.000 Now, I just won't have to be a resident of 1386 01:16:08.039 --> 01:16:09.680 the city of Cincinnati to sign the petition. 1387 01:16:11.079 --> 01:16:12.159 No, And you know this, this. 1388 01:16:12.239 --> 01:16:15.439 Petition is really twofold. It's one it's sending a message 1389 01:16:15.479 --> 01:16:18.000 to the city saying that we're not going to tolerate 1390 01:16:18.520 --> 01:16:20.880 some consultant from the city that's going to create, you. 1391 01:16:20.880 --> 01:16:24.640 Know, uh, have a criminal act, commit a criminal. 1392 01:16:24.439 --> 01:16:26.800 Act that's going to harass the police. But also it's 1393 01:16:26.800 --> 01:16:28.680 a message because the police are seeing it, and the 1394 01:16:28.720 --> 01:16:31.359 police are seeing the support they have. So I encourage 1395 01:16:31.399 --> 01:16:33.600 all those that are the silent minority or the silent 1396 01:16:34.159 --> 01:16:37.359 majority that are always supporting the police that don't necessarily 1397 01:16:37.399 --> 01:16:39.760 want to come out and say it, sign the petition 1398 01:16:39.920 --> 01:16:42.880 because these officers are taking notice of how many signatures 1399 01:16:42.920 --> 01:16:44.319 are you know, being signed. 1400 01:16:45.000 --> 01:16:49.680 Well, I guess considering she's in this consulting capacity, of 1401 01:16:49.760 --> 01:16:52.560 course she's an outspoken community activist. Everything in the city 1402 01:16:52.640 --> 01:16:55.199 seems to know who iris. Rawly is the fact that 1403 01:16:55.279 --> 01:16:58.279 she's going out there and actually interfering with officers doing 1404 01:16:58.319 --> 01:17:02.239 their job. Isn't that encouraging others residents of the city 1405 01:17:02.319 --> 01:17:04.720 to do the same dang thing, Since if Iris can 1406 01:17:04.760 --> 01:17:06.800 do it, shouldn't I be doing it also. 1407 01:17:07.760 --> 01:17:09.880 Without a doubt? I mean, they don't understand, you know, 1408 01:17:10.640 --> 01:17:13.039 the impact that this is having. I mean, officers are 1409 01:17:13.079 --> 01:17:15.960 absolutely furious about this. You know, I was at a 1410 01:17:16.079 --> 01:17:21.000 role call this morning. Not one officer had anything bad 1411 01:17:21.119 --> 01:17:24.319 to say about this petition. They encourage it. They actually 1412 01:17:24.359 --> 01:17:27.119 want me to go even further and take other steps, 1413 01:17:27.159 --> 01:17:29.880 and that's we'll see how this all plays out. But 1414 01:17:29.960 --> 01:17:32.920 they're furious to see that you have somebody that is 1415 01:17:33.159 --> 01:17:36.880 supposedly a city leader that is harassing the police when 1416 01:17:36.920 --> 01:17:38.399 they're simply trying to do their job. 1417 01:17:39.760 --> 01:17:42.000 Now, what do you hope ultimately comes to this? Obviously, 1418 01:17:42.159 --> 01:17:45.000 if the petition, you know, it serves its purpose, she's 1419 01:17:45.039 --> 01:17:47.479 going to get fired. I really am hesitant to believe 1420 01:17:47.520 --> 01:17:49.520 that Share along or anybody in the Cincinnati and the 1421 01:17:49.560 --> 01:17:52.039 current government, is going to fire her for doing this. 1422 01:17:52.399 --> 01:17:56.159 So this really does serve the purpose of putting Iris 1423 01:17:56.399 --> 01:17:59.920 specifically on notice that maybe next time around, she will 1424 01:18:00.079 --> 01:18:02.720 get sided, and also sends a warning to the rest 1425 01:18:02.800 --> 01:18:06.960 of the Greater Cincinnati residents. Don't do this, because you'll 1426 01:18:06.960 --> 01:18:09.199 see what's going to happen next time we encounter Iris 1427 01:18:09.319 --> 01:18:11.600 involving this. I mean, this just brings it to everybody's 1428 01:18:11.600 --> 01:18:13.119 attention as something not to do. 1429 01:18:13.399 --> 01:18:13.520 Right. 1430 01:18:14.680 --> 01:18:17.359 Absolutely, I had this conversation with the city manager on Friday, 1431 01:18:17.760 --> 01:18:20.399 and I told her, listen, she should thank her lucky 1432 01:18:20.439 --> 01:18:25.439 stars that she came across an extremely patient police officer 1433 01:18:25.840 --> 01:18:28.600 who is willing to deal with that nonsense, because there's 1434 01:18:28.600 --> 01:18:31.039 a lot of police officers out there that wouldn't have 1435 01:18:31.119 --> 01:18:32.680 been willing to deal with it, that would have just 1436 01:18:32.840 --> 01:18:36.000 arrested her, which is what ultimately could have happened. Like 1437 01:18:36.119 --> 01:18:39.520 I said, I respect the officer that was involved. I 1438 01:18:39.640 --> 01:18:43.079 think she's a fantastic person. Under the circumstances, I believe 1439 01:18:43.119 --> 01:18:46.039 she made the right decision. But Iris is going to 1440 01:18:46.079 --> 01:18:48.039 be so lucky next time, and that's going to be 1441 01:18:48.079 --> 01:18:50.079 on the city manager to have to deal with. You know, 1442 01:18:50.119 --> 01:18:52.479 if they continue to do business with her, they continue 1443 01:18:52.520 --> 01:18:53.800 to give her taxpayer dollars. 1444 01:18:54.199 --> 01:18:56.199 Because I believe Iris. 1445 01:18:56.039 --> 01:18:58.199 Is not going to stop doing this, it would be 1446 01:18:58.319 --> 01:19:01.279 smart if she does. That's what we want is for 1447 01:19:01.359 --> 01:19:04.000 her just to stop this behavior. But if it continues, 1448 01:19:04.479 --> 01:19:06.600 believe me, there is a high likelihood that she will 1449 01:19:06.600 --> 01:19:07.119 be arrested. 1450 01:19:07.399 --> 01:19:10.399 Well, and I agree with your conclusion about the officer 1451 01:19:10.520 --> 01:19:13.800 involved in not issuing the citation, But doesn't that highlight 1452 01:19:13.920 --> 01:19:17.359 the very problem that Iris Ralli has created because she 1453 01:19:17.640 --> 01:19:20.760 is such a loud activist and will look into and 1454 01:19:20.920 --> 01:19:25.399 with hindsight twenty twenty, look at every single, every single 1455 01:19:25.520 --> 01:19:32.000 moment in time of any officer and maybe perp interaction 1456 01:19:32.520 --> 01:19:34.319 that they're going to be under the microscope, which has 1457 01:19:34.399 --> 01:19:38.399 caused law enforcement officers to really question engaging people on 1458 01:19:38.560 --> 01:19:41.239 the street for fear of being called out by Iris 1459 01:19:41.359 --> 01:19:44.479 Rawli and others of her ILK. Now, doesn't this confirm 1460 01:19:44.560 --> 01:19:47.920 that that strategy actually work because Iris avoided getting a 1461 01:19:47.960 --> 01:19:50.359 ticket because it was well known to the police that 1462 01:19:50.439 --> 01:19:54.560 she was this loud activist. Yeah, I mean, I think 1463 01:19:54.640 --> 01:19:56.199 you could certainly draw that conclusion. 1464 01:19:56.239 --> 01:19:58.760 But I'll just say this, there are plenty of policemen 1465 01:19:58.800 --> 01:20:00.239 that I've talked to this said at that was me 1466 01:20:00.319 --> 01:20:02.720 in that situation, I would have arrested her. You know, 1467 01:20:02.800 --> 01:20:06.079 no one, no one in this police department is against accountability. 1468 01:20:06.560 --> 01:20:10.039 You know, the public deserves transparency. They deserve the police 1469 01:20:10.079 --> 01:20:12.279 to be held accountable. But if they think that they're 1470 01:20:12.359 --> 01:20:16.920 going to allow some bully to continue to harass police officers, 1471 01:20:17.000 --> 01:20:18.640 it's just not going to happen. There are plenty of 1472 01:20:18.760 --> 01:20:21.399 cops out there that we're wishing that that was them 1473 01:20:21.479 --> 01:20:22.880 because they would have arrested. 1474 01:20:22.600 --> 01:20:25.680 Her fair enough. Well, if folks want to sign the petition, 1475 01:20:26.520 --> 01:20:28.319 FOP President Ken Cover, where do they go. 1476 01:20:28.439 --> 01:20:28.760 To do that? 1477 01:20:29.920 --> 01:20:33.039 Goodness sincy c I n c Y police dot Com. 1478 01:20:34.159 --> 01:20:36.640 All the information that is all held by the FOP, 1479 01:20:36.840 --> 01:20:38.840 So it's not like the city's getting this information. 1480 01:20:40.359 --> 01:20:41.800 We're storing all this information. 1481 01:20:41.920 --> 01:20:44.359 It's private and you know, we want to be able 1482 01:20:44.399 --> 01:20:45.840 to see that you know how many people are actually 1483 01:20:45.880 --> 01:20:47.560 out there supporting the police, because we know there's a 1484 01:20:47.640 --> 01:20:48.000 ton of you. 1485 01:20:48.079 --> 01:20:50.960 All amen to that.

Welcome back to the fifty five KRC Morning Show. 1523 01:22:39.399 --> 01:22:42.039 Former Vice Mayor of the City of Cincinnati, Christopher Smithman 1524 01:22:42.079 --> 01:22:44.439 for the Monday Morning smith Avan. Christopher, always a pleasure 1525 01:22:44.479 --> 01:22:45.239 having on my show. 1526 01:22:46.640 --> 01:22:49.600 Oh, thank you so much, Brian for having me on. 1527 01:22:49.840 --> 01:22:53.640 So I'll get at the first question that you have presented. 1528 01:22:53.680 --> 01:22:56.399 A Yes, I did pull a petition to run for 1529 01:22:56.520 --> 01:23:00.640 city council on Friday around four pm. So we're in 1530 01:23:00.720 --> 01:23:04.399 the process of collecting signatures to get my name on 1531 01:23:04.479 --> 01:23:07.359 the ballot, and we have a short window nine days. 1532 01:23:08.600 --> 01:23:11.520 The signatures are due on the twentieth, and so we're 1533 01:23:11.560 --> 01:23:14.960 excited about it. You know, my frustration is, like with 1534 01:23:15.079 --> 01:23:18.439 everyone else. You know, we've seen a city hall that 1535 01:23:18.640 --> 01:23:24.560 seems to just miss some very important facts around crime 1536 01:23:25.079 --> 01:23:29.319 or safety in our community, brother or dealing with what's 1537 01:23:29.359 --> 01:23:31.920 happening in Hyde Park with the development there, and it 1538 01:23:32.039 --> 01:23:33.159 just seemed to be ignored. 1539 01:23:33.600 --> 01:23:35.560 That's a very very, very very big deal. 1540 01:23:36.119 --> 01:23:39.560 And so you know, this city Council has really set 1541 01:23:40.000 --> 01:23:43.840 race relations back ten years the comment by the President 1542 01:23:43.920 --> 01:23:45.880 pro Tem, and one of the reasons I want to 1543 01:23:45.920 --> 01:23:48.680 explain this is that thirty years ago we didn't have 1544 01:23:48.800 --> 01:23:51.039 the internet the way we have it now. And so 1545 01:23:51.359 --> 01:23:54.159 when you can go to Europe and see a statement 1546 01:23:54.239 --> 01:23:56.520 from the President pro Tem which is thirty in command 1547 01:23:56.920 --> 01:24:00.760 that says that Holly was begging for the beat down 1548 01:24:00.840 --> 01:24:04.960 that she got right, is devastating for the economics of 1549 01:24:05.039 --> 01:24:09.600 our city. It is the devastating for the economics of 1550 01:24:09.640 --> 01:24:14.520 our city, is devastating for our reputation, and the President 1551 01:24:14.640 --> 01:24:17.880 Protend just seems to not understand it. If the mayor 1552 01:24:17.960 --> 01:24:20.279 wanted to hold her accountable today, he could strip her 1553 01:24:20.359 --> 01:24:23.479 of her title President Protend. He could demand that council 1554 01:24:23.880 --> 01:24:26.640 revoke that. It doesn't make sense to me. So there 1555 01:24:26.680 --> 01:24:28.840 are a lot of good reasons to put my name 1556 01:24:28.880 --> 01:24:31.640 on the ballot to give the citizens of Cincinnati in 1557 01:24:31.640 --> 01:24:33.840 our fifty two neighborhoods an option. It's going to be 1558 01:24:33.920 --> 01:24:36.119 up to them if they want to keep the status 1559 01:24:36.199 --> 01:24:39.399 quo where we're heading, They're not going to vote for me. 1560 01:24:39.920 --> 01:24:42.600 If they like a change and a voice on Council 1561 01:24:42.720 --> 01:24:45.680 of Reason and common Sense, no matter what their political 1562 01:24:45.720 --> 01:24:48.079 party is, they'll vote for me. Well, yes, I did 1563 01:24:48.119 --> 01:24:50.520 pull a petition. We'll be working incredibly hard over the 1564 01:24:50.600 --> 01:24:53.680 next nine days to get the five hundred good signatures to. 1565 01:24:53.680 --> 01:24:54.640 Put my name on ballot. 1566 01:24:54.800 --> 01:24:58.720 Well, what can my Cincinnati City of Cincinnati dwelling listeners 1567 01:24:58.800 --> 01:25:00.560 do to help you out on that? A place they 1568 01:25:00.560 --> 01:25:02.479 can go to sign the petition? Where's it going to 1569 01:25:02.520 --> 01:25:03.920 be circulated? What can we do to put you here? 1570 01:25:03.960 --> 01:25:04.479 With the top there? 1571 01:25:04.560 --> 01:25:10.560 Christopher, So, Jim and Jack is the headquarters and people 1572 01:25:10.640 --> 01:25:13.880 can just come down. Like I said before, it's the 1573 01:25:14.000 --> 01:25:17.920 super majority of people that work here. The owner and 1574 01:25:18.039 --> 01:25:20.439 it's gym is daughter who runs at Karen Jim. 1575 01:25:20.520 --> 01:25:21.199 They all live in the. 1576 01:25:21.239 --> 01:25:23.600 City of Cincinnati. I live at Price Hill and so 1577 01:25:23.800 --> 01:25:27.800 they're here circulating. They're not open on Mondays, but Tuesday 1578 01:25:27.880 --> 01:25:31.319 through Sunday they can just walk into the establishment say 1579 01:25:31.319 --> 01:25:34.560 they're here to sign the petition. And sign the petition. 1580 01:25:34.680 --> 01:25:37.000 That's what we need, and the key is that we need, 1581 01:25:37.159 --> 01:25:40.479 as you indicated, Brian, citizens that live in the city 1582 01:25:40.520 --> 01:25:43.600 of Cincinnati, in our fifty two neighborhoods. The second thing 1583 01:25:43.680 --> 01:25:45.800 that we need is for people to pick up a 1584 01:25:45.840 --> 01:25:48.920 petition and take it home. Now, this is a detail 1585 01:25:49.000 --> 01:25:51.880 that's important, Like we don't need people necessarily to fill 1586 01:25:51.880 --> 01:25:55.279 out the whole petition. Just you come in, husband comes in, 1587 01:25:55.439 --> 01:25:59.760 signs the petition, takes the petition home, has his wife witnesses, 1588 01:25:59.800 --> 01:26:03.359 his wife's signature is children's signature, and then brings it back. 1589 01:26:03.439 --> 01:26:05.279 They might get three or four signatures, but we know 1590 01:26:05.399 --> 01:26:08.720 all those signatures are good. The key to this is validity. 1591 01:26:08.960 --> 01:26:12.199 It's not volume. It's getting the right people in the 1592 01:26:12.279 --> 01:26:15.439 city who are registered to vote where their address matches 1593 01:26:15.479 --> 01:26:18.239 the Board of Elections to sign the petition so we 1594 01:26:18.319 --> 01:26:21.359 can turn those signatures in by the twenty Well, I 1595 01:26:21.479 --> 01:26:24.159 appreciate the opportunity to say that and thank you Brian 1596 01:26:24.239 --> 01:26:25.159 for that time. 1597 01:26:25.359 --> 01:26:26.880 Listen, man, I can't think of a better thing to 1598 01:26:26.920 --> 01:26:28.720 happen for the city. Since now you're getting on the 1599 01:26:28.760 --> 01:26:31.119 bout and getting elected, you have a record that you 1600 01:26:31.199 --> 01:26:33.439 can run on. You can point back to your record 1601 01:26:33.560 --> 01:26:36.880 successful it was, to your record on common sense, logic 1602 01:26:36.960 --> 01:26:39.199 and reason. Of course, offering an alternative voice to the 1603 01:26:39.279 --> 01:26:41.800 lockstep unified voice, we get out of the Democrats, which 1604 01:26:41.880 --> 01:26:45.800 quite often doesn't make any sense. So wonderful development, folks, 1605 01:26:45.840 --> 01:26:48.079 you have an opportunity to help out. Let's change the direction. 1606 01:26:48.239 --> 01:26:50.680 Let's get Christopher on the ballot and then of course 1607 01:26:50.760 --> 01:26:53.680 do the hard work of getting him elected. Christopher, I'm 1608 01:26:53.760 --> 01:26:56.560 really pleased with the announcement. I really really am, and 1609 01:26:56.640 --> 01:26:59.239 I'm excited for you, and I'm think about good things 1610 01:26:59.279 --> 01:27:01.319 maybe coming for the city of Cincinnati. We got great 1611 01:27:01.359 --> 01:27:04.560 options coming up this fall, great options. Just question of 1612 01:27:04.600 --> 01:27:06.640 whether the city wakes up and decides they're not going 1613 01:27:06.720 --> 01:27:09.800 to do the same thing over and over and over again. 1614 01:27:10.359 --> 01:27:14.279 Another time. We'll bring Christopher back. Let's wait first, though, 1615 01:27:14.399 --> 01:27:17.880 a word for my friends at USA Insallation.

Chuck Ingram 1656 01:29:14.479 --> 01:29:16.880 on fifty five KRC the talk station. 1657 01:29:19.199 --> 01:29:20.920 To Shy at seven twenty nine to fifty five kr 1658 01:29:21.039 --> 01:29:23.359 C the talk station Brian Thomas with former vice mayor 1659 01:29:23.399 --> 01:29:27.600 of the City of Cincinnati and maybe councilmen again, Christopher Smithman. 1660 01:29:28.000 --> 01:29:31.319 Christopher Eric commented to me, he said, when Corey Bowman 1661 01:29:31.359 --> 01:29:35.119 gets elected, we can get Christopher Smithemer as vice mayor again. 1662 01:29:35.319 --> 01:29:38.720 Maybe well, well. 1663 01:29:38.600 --> 01:29:43.359 We'll leave that, yeah, Mayor Cory Bowman, right, But what 1664 01:29:43.479 --> 01:29:47.119 I will say is that this will give I hope 1665 01:29:47.159 --> 01:29:51.439 the citizens of Cincinnati, you know, an option, and I'm 1666 01:29:51.520 --> 01:29:54.680 one of a few good options on there because I 1667 01:29:54.720 --> 01:29:57.720 think Stephen Gooden is, oh yeah, a good guy who's running. 1668 01:29:58.640 --> 01:30:03.600 I served with him, always came prepared, professional, understood the 1669 01:30:03.640 --> 01:30:07.800 subject matter, and delivered the vote and didn't mind being 1670 01:30:07.880 --> 01:30:10.880 in the minority. People don't realize that the descending vote 1671 01:30:11.000 --> 01:30:14.800 is also very important because it means that those citizens 1672 01:30:14.880 --> 01:30:17.479 in the fifty two neighborhoods who wanted to hear a 1673 01:30:17.600 --> 01:30:20.600 no vote got it, and it meant that somebody heard 1674 01:30:20.680 --> 01:30:23.439 them and was standing with them on their position. That's 1675 01:30:23.520 --> 01:30:27.760 number one, but number two, it also forces negotiations, meaning 1676 01:30:28.159 --> 01:30:31.159 sometimes votes are five to four, they're right there on 1677 01:30:31.239 --> 01:30:35.319 the bubble, and that kind of pressure Brian Thomas sometimes 1678 01:30:35.439 --> 01:30:38.680 makes the other side conceive points that are important to 1679 01:30:38.720 --> 01:30:41.720 get the compromise. So we can't keep doing what we're doing. 1680 01:30:41.760 --> 01:30:45.960 We can't have nine Democrats on council. A mayor that's 1681 01:30:46.000 --> 01:30:49.680 a Democrat. They're just running the table as a group think. 1682 01:30:50.159 --> 01:30:53.840 And typically those types of board of directors are bad 1683 01:30:54.239 --> 01:30:57.720 for cities. We see it in Chicago right now. Chicago 1684 01:30:57.920 --> 01:31:01.159 is in so much economic trouble, and often it's because 1685 01:31:01.159 --> 01:31:04.640 they've had a group think, you know. So anyway, it's 1686 01:31:04.640 --> 01:31:07.359 an option, and I'm not gonna harp on that. I 1687 01:31:07.479 --> 01:31:09.680 want to say, there was some type of fight in 1688 01:31:09.800 --> 01:31:13.399 downtown Cincinnati. We've had shots fired, all kinds of things, 1689 01:31:13.479 --> 01:31:16.079 but there was a fight that citizens are talking about 1690 01:31:16.439 --> 01:31:20.640 between some white citizens down in downtown Cincinnati. And it 1691 01:31:20.720 --> 01:31:23.600 looked like white youth. And so it's important for the 1692 01:31:23.680 --> 01:31:27.840 mainstream media to talk about it, right, don't hide that 1693 01:31:28.079 --> 01:31:31.239 under the carpet. What happened? How are we as a 1694 01:31:31.279 --> 01:31:35.000 city managing that. Did they arrest anybody, whether they were 1695 01:31:35.079 --> 01:31:37.600 juveniles or they going to juvenile court? How was it 1696 01:31:37.680 --> 01:31:40.239 a dressed It didn't look like a fair fight. It 1697 01:31:40.319 --> 01:31:44.239 looked like somebody several young men looked like they were 1698 01:31:44.279 --> 01:31:47.079 jumping on one or two people. But it looked like chaos, 1699 01:31:47.159 --> 01:31:49.199 and it did look like an officer was on team 1700 01:31:49.319 --> 01:31:51.880 breaking it up. So that's a good thing. I mean 1701 01:31:51.920 --> 01:31:54.479 that there was somebody there responding to it. But the 1702 01:31:54.560 --> 01:31:57.119 point is that we want to be balanced in our 1703 01:31:57.199 --> 01:32:00.680 coverage about what's happening in our city, and this is 1704 01:32:00.760 --> 01:32:03.800 one of those opportunities for mainstream media to do just that. 1705 01:32:04.119 --> 01:32:06.680 In my opinion, yeah, I agree, And crime is crime 1706 01:32:06.760 --> 01:32:09.159 is crime. Whether it's white kids beating up on somebody 1707 01:32:09.279 --> 01:32:11.439 or black kids beating up on somebody. The problem is 1708 01:32:11.640 --> 01:32:13.479 we've got a bunch of kids runn around beating up 1709 01:32:13.520 --> 01:32:15.560 on people, and that's not a good view. I mean, 1710 01:32:15.560 --> 01:32:17.159 if you want to paint the city of Cincinnati is 1711 01:32:17.199 --> 01:32:19.199 a safe place, does it matter the color of the 1712 01:32:19.239 --> 01:32:21.439 person's skin if you're going to probably get a beatdown 1713 01:32:21.439 --> 01:32:23.960 if you're going downtown Cincinnati. The point is is crime 1714 01:32:24.159 --> 01:32:27.000 is a problems. 1715 01:32:27.119 --> 01:32:32.520 That's absolutely true. And we can't have leaders undermining law 1716 01:32:32.600 --> 01:32:35.920 enforcement no matter what. Because I heard the FOP president 1717 01:32:36.039 --> 01:32:39.079 in his interview, and so you can't have leaders in 1718 01:32:39.159 --> 01:32:43.399 the city undermining getting in between the work of what 1719 01:32:43.520 --> 01:32:46.199 our Cincinnati Police Department is doing. And by the way, 1720 01:32:46.760 --> 01:32:49.319 you know, having served as the Chair of Law and 1721 01:32:49.399 --> 01:32:53.039 Public Safety, that's part of their job, that kind of oversight. 1722 01:32:53.439 --> 01:32:55.000 Meaning if I were the Chair of Law and Public 1723 01:32:55.039 --> 01:32:57.439 Safety and I had an incident like that, I would 1724 01:32:57.479 --> 01:32:59.600 have a hearing on it. I'd ask the person, the 1725 01:32:59.640 --> 01:33:03.439 employer who's involved, the contractor police come in and explain this, 1726 01:33:04.039 --> 01:33:06.640 meaning this is not something that's normal and not something 1727 01:33:06.720 --> 01:33:09.720 that should happen. So part of the problem is the 1728 01:33:09.800 --> 01:33:13.680 council isn't functioning giving the oversight, and then it triggers 1729 01:33:13.720 --> 01:33:15.880 the FOP to have to do the things that they're doing. 1730 01:33:16.600 --> 01:33:19.039 It's because city Council is not doing what they're supposed 1731 01:33:19.079 --> 01:33:22.800 to do, which is police themselves, police the institution. That's 1732 01:33:22.840 --> 01:33:25.680 why they're serving as the board of directors. So again 1733 01:33:26.119 --> 01:33:29.600 that's another reason, right, it's important to get people elected 1734 01:33:29.680 --> 01:33:32.399 on council because let's say Stephen Gooden was a member 1735 01:33:32.439 --> 01:33:35.239 of council, he probably would say, here's a motion, I'd 1736 01:33:35.279 --> 01:33:37.720 like to have a hearing on the subject matter that 1737 01:33:37.840 --> 01:33:41.039 the FOP president was just talking about, which is talking 1738 01:33:41.079 --> 01:33:43.760 about it from the outside, but there should be somebody 1739 01:33:43.840 --> 01:33:46.279 on council of the nine of them saying this is 1740 01:33:46.319 --> 01:33:48.560 a problem. We're going to have a hearing about it 1741 01:33:48.640 --> 01:33:49.840 and have a public discussion. 1742 01:33:50.279 --> 01:33:53.479 Well, same thing on the President pro TEMs, just unbelievably 1743 01:33:53.560 --> 01:33:57.000 horrific statement about this. People deserving a beatdown, including Holly, 1744 01:33:57.119 --> 01:34:00.520 who seem to be completely innocent whole thing. So yeah, 1745 01:34:00.640 --> 01:34:03.520 you might advance the motion to address that and sanction her, 1746 01:34:03.600 --> 01:34:07.680 otherwise remove her from any you know, a membership position 1747 01:34:07.800 --> 01:34:09.800 on any given committee. 1748 01:34:10.920 --> 01:34:13.359 You know, I the is no question Brian Thomas, there 1749 01:34:13.439 --> 01:34:16.119 is no question that out of nine members of council, 1750 01:34:17.359 --> 01:34:19.920 the president pro tem who's third in command. So that 1751 01:34:20.039 --> 01:34:22.079 means that when the mayor's out of town, the vice 1752 01:34:22.159 --> 01:34:24.479 mayor's out of town, the President pro tem is running 1753 01:34:24.520 --> 01:34:27.800 the city third in command. So in the country, it's 1754 01:34:27.880 --> 01:34:30.640 right the president, the vice president, and then the Speaker 1755 01:34:30.720 --> 01:34:33.720 of the House. The reality of it is you at 1756 01:34:33.760 --> 01:34:37.640 the Speaker of the House, like in the connection of 1757 01:34:37.760 --> 01:34:40.560 power in the city, saying that Hollywood was begging for 1758 01:34:40.640 --> 01:34:44.479 what happened to her, And you don't have that resolution 1759 01:34:44.680 --> 01:34:47.159 that you just discussed by any member of councilor of 1760 01:34:47.239 --> 01:34:50.720 the mayor saying we're going to censure her, We're going 1761 01:34:50.800 --> 01:34:54.760 to strip her of some committee chairmanships or a committee positions, 1762 01:34:55.119 --> 01:34:57.279 or we're going to strip her of her president pro 1763 01:34:57.399 --> 01:35:00.199 tem and it doesn't her title, because that then what's 1764 01:35:00.199 --> 01:35:03.800 happening is and you know this is her comments are 1765 01:35:03.880 --> 01:35:08.640 playing in Europe. Yeah, this is around the world community. 1766 01:35:08.760 --> 01:35:11.880 It's not like this is local to Cincinnati. People are 1767 01:35:12.000 --> 01:35:16.640 discussing what she said around the world, not just the 1768 01:35:16.800 --> 01:35:19.800 United States of America. And there's not that other voice 1769 01:35:19.840 --> 01:35:22.600 in the void that's elected down there saying we don't 1770 01:35:22.640 --> 01:35:25.159 agree with this, We're going to hold her accountable. The 1771 01:35:25.279 --> 01:35:27.520 peace is we're going to hold her accountable. It's not 1772 01:35:27.600 --> 01:35:29.279 okay just to say, hey, I don't agree with what 1773 01:35:29.399 --> 01:35:31.920 she said. If you have to take the next step 1774 01:35:32.039 --> 01:35:34.359 here to say, here's how we're going to hold this 1775 01:35:34.760 --> 01:35:38.159 elected official accountable, Brian Tard, that's missing in the system 1776 01:35:38.239 --> 01:35:38.560 right now. 1777 01:35:38.800 --> 01:35:42.399 Yeah, And I mean the silence from the rest of 1778 01:35:42.439 --> 01:35:44.840 the council is really deafening along those lines because that 1779 01:35:45.079 --> 01:35:50.880 statement cannot be justified under any circumstances none. So it 1780 01:35:51.000 --> 01:35:53.479 is a bad optic for the City of Cincinnati. I mean, 1781 01:35:53.560 --> 01:35:55.479 she is an elected official, as you point out, in 1782 01:35:55.560 --> 01:35:59.079 the third highest role on the city and said that 1783 01:35:59.199 --> 01:36:01.359 Holly deserved to get punched in the face. I'm just 1784 01:36:01.479 --> 01:36:04.159 I'm beside myself still on that one. Let's continue with 1785 01:36:04.199 --> 01:36:05.920 Christopher Smith and at seven thirty five right now if 1786 01:36:05.960 --> 01:36:08.520 you five KCD talk station.

Brian 1814 01:37:24.479 --> 01:37:28.720 Talling with with Christopher Smithman may Orrill are a council candidate. 1815 01:37:28.720 --> 01:37:29.880 If we can get him on the ballot. Get over 1816 01:37:29.920 --> 01:37:32.479 to Jim and Jackson the River. Not today because they're 1817 01:37:32.520 --> 01:37:34.520 closed on Mondays, but that's where you can find a petition. 1818 01:37:35.079 --> 01:37:37.960 Make sure Christopher has valid signatures of residents of the 1819 01:37:38.039 --> 01:37:39.760 City of Cincinnati so you can get on the ballot 1820 01:37:39.760 --> 01:37:41.640 and we'll have a better option as we get forward 1821 01:37:42.000 --> 01:37:44.840 closer to the election of this November. Good Man, he 1822 01:37:45.000 --> 01:37:48.720 is Christopher, you're talking about the situation Iris Rawley. I 1823 01:37:48.800 --> 01:37:51.199 had FOP President Ken Coob we're on earlier, talking about 1824 01:37:51.239 --> 01:37:54.439 petition they're circulating to have her removed from her role 1825 01:37:54.600 --> 01:37:57.479 as a consultant getting paid by the City of Cincinnati 1826 01:37:57.520 --> 01:38:00.479 while out there interfering with police officers. And you know 1827 01:38:00.560 --> 01:38:02.159 because you heard it. The point I was making with 1828 01:38:02.279 --> 01:38:05.439 him is she is She's got a lot of swing 1829 01:38:05.840 --> 01:38:12.000 in the Cincinnati area among residents political activists outspoken, clearly 1830 01:38:12.079 --> 01:38:15.039 been around since the collaborative agreement, So her voice, in 1831 01:38:15.119 --> 01:38:17.119 spite of what you or I may conclude about it, 1832 01:38:17.279 --> 01:38:19.600 does carry a lot of weight. So I think it's 1833 01:38:19.640 --> 01:38:23.560 important this petition because she is literally committing a crime 1834 01:38:23.640 --> 01:38:26.520 by interfering with the actions of police officers. This is 1835 01:38:26.560 --> 01:38:29.119 a warning to Iris Rawley, as he indicated, to not 1836 01:38:29.239 --> 01:38:31.239 do it anymore, or you're going to get sighted next 1837 01:38:31.239 --> 01:38:33.479 time it happens. But it's also a warning to the 1838 01:38:33.520 --> 01:38:36.399 rest of the residents. Because Iris are roally out there 1839 01:38:37.079 --> 01:38:40.239 bothering and interfering with police doing their work. That's incentive 1840 01:38:40.279 --> 01:38:42.600 to others to do the same thing. Much in the 1841 01:38:42.640 --> 01:38:46.439 same way. Victoria Parks President pro Temps comment that those 1842 01:38:46.479 --> 01:38:49.880 folks deserve the beatdown they got is kind of a 1843 01:38:49.920 --> 01:38:52.319 suggestion to other residents of the city of Cincinnati. Hey, 1844 01:38:52.439 --> 01:38:54.479 it's okay to beat up on whitey, or at least 1845 01:38:54.520 --> 01:38:57.039 that's kind of a conclusion you draw your take. 1846 01:38:58.439 --> 01:39:04.199 Well, look first, if we had a functioning administration and counsel, 1847 01:39:05.359 --> 01:39:08.159 the FOP president would not have to do what they're doing, 1848 01:39:08.239 --> 01:39:11.880 because the city manager would call that contractor in in 1849 01:39:12.000 --> 01:39:16.000 this case Irish Roly and say never ever engage in 1850 01:39:16.039 --> 01:39:19.840 this behavior. You cannot go out. And then, certainly on 1851 01:39:20.479 --> 01:39:24.000 this bodycam, it's saying I think the statement was I 1852 01:39:24.119 --> 01:39:26.600 don't trust you or I don't trust the police. I mean, 1853 01:39:26.640 --> 01:39:29.119 it was one of the statements something like that to 1854 01:39:29.239 --> 01:39:32.359 the officer who was trying to cite the person on 1855 01:39:32.560 --> 01:39:35.520 the bicycle and the person the officer was saying in 1856 01:39:35.600 --> 01:39:37.479 a very respectful way. By the way, I'd give her 1857 01:39:37.479 --> 01:39:40.159 an a plus in how she handled the situation. 1858 01:39:40.279 --> 01:39:41.199 I hope you give me. 1859 01:39:41.640 --> 01:39:45.600 She did a wonderful job managing that right because she 1860 01:39:45.720 --> 01:39:48.920 understood the political ramification right and that she was doing 1861 01:39:49.000 --> 01:39:51.640 her best to de escalate. She didn't want to put 1862 01:39:51.720 --> 01:39:54.359 handcuffs on Irish Roly, but she needed to do her 1863 01:39:54.479 --> 01:39:57.279 job of citing this person back to jail. So it 1864 01:39:57.399 --> 01:40:00.840 was a very tough situation for the officers or kudos 1865 01:40:00.880 --> 01:40:02.399 to her. But at the end of the day, if 1866 01:40:02.439 --> 01:40:06.359 the city manager right, if she was doing her job, 1867 01:40:06.920 --> 01:40:11.159 she would say, look, not only don't do it, but publicly, 1868 01:40:11.319 --> 01:40:13.479 I'm going to make sure that I send the message 1869 01:40:13.479 --> 01:40:17.520 to the community that this was unacceptable behavior. So because 1870 01:40:17.640 --> 01:40:19.960 that's not happening. The statement that I heard you read 1871 01:40:20.520 --> 01:40:22.760 from the city manager was kind of like, these are 1872 01:40:22.800 --> 01:40:26.479 the great things, yes, that the contractor does for our community, 1873 01:40:26.960 --> 01:40:30.560 which is not dealing with the issue that the FOP 1874 01:40:30.720 --> 01:40:34.880 president is putting forward. So because and by the way, Brian, 1875 01:40:35.359 --> 01:40:39.800 somebody on council, the chair of Lauren Public Safety, the 1876 01:40:40.039 --> 01:40:43.039 vice chair of Lauren Public Safety, a member of Law 1877 01:40:43.119 --> 01:40:47.720 and Public Safety should be engaging here with the oversight. Again, 1878 01:40:47.840 --> 01:40:50.920 that's the part of the dysfunction that the FLP president 1879 01:40:51.279 --> 01:40:52.920 has to come and do any of this work. 1880 01:40:53.359 --> 01:40:56.399 Well, I will give some credit to City Manager Long 1881 01:40:56.520 --> 01:40:59.079 she did conclude with anyone doing work on behalf of 1882 01:40:59.159 --> 01:41:02.319 the city of Cincinnati, iris Rawley must hold themselves to 1883 01:41:02.359 --> 01:41:05.600 a higher standard. That includes not interfering with police who 1884 01:41:05.600 --> 01:41:07.760 are in the act of performing their lawful duties. So 1885 01:41:07.920 --> 01:41:10.279 she is on record sort of, I guess in a 1886 01:41:10.399 --> 01:41:13.760 sense giving Iris Rawley a notice. Look, you didn't get 1887 01:41:13.800 --> 01:41:17.439 a ticket previously, although you could have easily gotten one, 1888 01:41:18.159 --> 01:41:18.960 don't do it again. 1889 01:41:21.039 --> 01:41:24.039 But Brian, the problem is that she's trying to find 1890 01:41:24.119 --> 01:41:27.640 the balance when right now you have an employee here 1891 01:41:28.079 --> 01:41:30.680 and are a contractor, and you should just say at 1892 01:41:30.720 --> 01:41:33.199 the end of that that should have been the only statement. No, 1893 01:41:33.680 --> 01:41:36.119 because what you were talking about and what the FOP 1894 01:41:36.279 --> 01:41:38.880 president is talking about, we don't want anybody else doing 1895 01:41:39.000 --> 01:41:42.279 it exactly, meaning this is how Sunny Kim lost his life. 1896 01:41:42.359 --> 01:41:45.640 There was somebody getting in between. That's what andre Ewing 1897 01:41:45.880 --> 01:41:47.960 was saying as an officer, which, by the way, I 1898 01:41:48.000 --> 01:41:51.520 have tremendous respect for andre Ewing as an officer. I 1899 01:41:51.680 --> 01:41:54.319 served with him on council and his work that he's 1900 01:41:54.359 --> 01:41:57.479 doing now because he's calling out things right and wrong 1901 01:41:57.560 --> 01:42:00.640 and he's not bathing in race and is so here 1902 01:42:01.039 --> 01:42:04.239 on what he's saying. But having said that, the system 1903 01:42:04.399 --> 01:42:07.840 is dysfunctional. Yet another reason I want to say, highlight 1904 01:42:07.920 --> 01:42:11.760 this hyde Park Square deal right now. Remember hyde Park 1905 01:42:11.920 --> 01:42:15.560 went to all of the meetings and said hey, developer, 1906 01:42:15.720 --> 01:42:18.119 this is not what we want. Right. I think there 1907 01:42:18.159 --> 01:42:22.239 were two members of council who said no and seven 1908 01:42:22.319 --> 01:42:24.800 that said yes, and so it put Hyde Park in 1909 01:42:24.840 --> 01:42:26.920 this position where they had to go out collect signatures 1910 01:42:26.960 --> 01:42:28.880 like I'm collecting to put my name on the ballot. 1911 01:42:28.920 --> 01:42:31.079 They put their issue on the ballot and they're doing 1912 01:42:31.159 --> 01:42:34.560 a referendum and they're putting pressure on the developer. If 1913 01:42:34.600 --> 01:42:38.880 they had a functioning city council, the council would have said, look, 1914 01:42:39.319 --> 01:42:43.640 let's pause this for ninety days. The Planning commissioner said yes. 1915 01:42:43.800 --> 01:42:46.039 I served on the Planning Commission for four years, and 1916 01:42:46.119 --> 01:42:48.159 by the way, I loved the Planning Commission staff, and 1917 01:42:48.199 --> 01:42:50.039 that is since there they know I love them. They 1918 01:42:50.159 --> 01:42:53.319 do great work. But the Planning Commission is saying here's 1919 01:42:53.359 --> 01:42:56.159 our recommendation. When they got to the floor of council, 1920 01:42:56.439 --> 01:42:59.720 there should have been a majority of members saying high Park. 1921 01:43:00.359 --> 01:43:02.800 The people that we represent are saying they have a 1922 01:43:02.880 --> 01:43:05.199 problem with this. We're going to put this on hold 1923 01:43:05.239 --> 01:43:07.880 for ninety days. We're gonna sit down with the developers 1924 01:43:07.920 --> 01:43:11.319 and we're going to negotiate the height and negotiate the issues. 1925 01:43:11.359 --> 01:43:14.000 Because the High Park residents aren't saying they don't want it. 1926 01:43:14.319 --> 01:43:17.800 They're saying they wanted to conform with the zoning that's 1927 01:43:17.920 --> 01:43:20.880 in front of them. Why are you changing the rules 1928 01:43:21.000 --> 01:43:24.239 in the middle of the game. That's the discussion, that's it. 1929 01:43:24.680 --> 01:43:27.560 And so my point is that it's a shame that 1930 01:43:27.720 --> 01:43:30.319 Hyde Park had to go through what they're going through. 1931 01:43:30.640 --> 01:43:33.319 But guess what. Let's talk about bond Hill. Bond Hill 1932 01:43:33.439 --> 01:43:36.920 has development over there, beautiful homes that they're building, five 1933 01:43:37.039 --> 01:43:40.239 hundred thousand dollars, homes that people have invested their money in. 1934 01:43:40.600 --> 01:43:44.000 There was an absolute discussion that no low more low 1935 01:43:44.079 --> 01:43:47.039 income housing was going to go into Badhil. Guess what 1936 01:43:47.680 --> 01:43:51.600 council put low income housing right or they're pursuing this 1937 01:43:51.840 --> 01:43:55.840 right in the heart around these homes that are being built. 1938 01:43:56.079 --> 01:43:58.600 And the point is, I'm not saying that people who 1939 01:43:58.920 --> 01:44:02.640 don't have means have low value or low bad morals 1940 01:44:02.640 --> 01:44:05.399 and blah blah blah, but it's not the agreement that 1941 01:44:05.560 --> 01:44:08.640 they made. And most Americans still have the majority of 1942 01:44:08.720 --> 01:44:11.960 their wealth in their home. So why would city council 1943 01:44:12.319 --> 01:44:16.039 take an action where they keep putting great development in 1944 01:44:16.159 --> 01:44:19.399 other neighborhoods and then look at a middle class really 1945 01:44:19.520 --> 01:44:23.039 solid neighborhood like bond Hill and drop bad things that 1946 01:44:23.439 --> 01:44:26.479 the residents are saying they don't want. These are the 1947 01:44:26.560 --> 01:44:27.399 things that alarm me. 1948 01:44:27.760 --> 01:44:31.600 Yeah, well, I mean it's an interesting reality because forever 1949 01:44:32.199 --> 01:44:35.159 council members would pay lip service the idea of redeveloping communities, 1950 01:44:35.239 --> 01:44:37.239 like how much money was put into over the Rhine 1951 01:44:37.319 --> 01:44:42.399 and making it gentrified and beautifying it and expensive rental properties. 1952 01:44:42.399 --> 01:44:45.800 They wanted to bring in wealthy urban hipsters who pay taxes. 1953 01:44:46.239 --> 01:44:49.039 Isn't that exactly what bond Hill's doing. Shouldn't council welcome 1954 01:44:49.119 --> 01:44:51.039 the idea that people are willing to invest half a 1955 01:44:51.159 --> 01:44:56.159 million dollars in a home. Those are tax payers, Yes. 1956 01:44:56.319 --> 01:44:59.880 And the majority of them, majority of them are African American, 1957 01:45:00.039 --> 01:45:03.319 and they're going, what the heck? They're as frustrated as 1958 01:45:03.399 --> 01:45:06.239 Hyde Park, meaning Hyde Park has to understand that their 1959 01:45:06.279 --> 01:45:09.000 connection to what's happening in price Ville, where there's Warsaw 1960 01:45:09.600 --> 01:45:13.239 Avenue which has been devastated, right around Seaton and right 1961 01:45:13.319 --> 01:45:15.840 around Elder High School. If those high schools weren't there, 1962 01:45:16.159 --> 01:45:18.600 price Hille would have gone the pot they're holding it 1963 01:45:18.680 --> 01:45:21.840 down there. My point is you have a pattern where 1964 01:45:21.960 --> 01:45:26.119 city council. They're not listening to the fifty two neighborhoods. 1965 01:45:26.199 --> 01:45:29.560 This connect community thing that the mayor pushed, who heard 1966 01:45:29.840 --> 01:45:31.800 most of the fifty two neighborhoods say, we don't want this, 1967 01:45:31.920 --> 01:45:33.359 we don't want this, we don't want this. What if 1968 01:45:33.399 --> 01:45:36.560 they do shoved it down their throat. That's why I 1969 01:45:36.680 --> 01:45:38.880 decided to put my name on the ballot. And we 1970 01:45:39.039 --> 01:45:41.560 really hope, Brian, that people will come to Jim and 1971 01:45:41.640 --> 01:45:45.239 Jack starting tomorrow sign the petition if they live in 1972 01:45:45.279 --> 01:45:48.520 the City of Cincinnati. Make this easy for us. Drive 1973 01:45:48.960 --> 01:45:53.399 sign the petition, have a coffee, sit down and put 1974 01:45:53.439 --> 01:45:55.039 my name. Get my name on the ballot. So we 1975 01:45:55.119 --> 01:45:58.079 have a choice because early voting starts October the fourth, 1976 01:45:58.560 --> 01:46:01.680 somewhere around there, thirty days of voting, so this is 1977 01:46:01.760 --> 01:46:03.439 not a lot of time. By the time I get 1978 01:46:03.520 --> 01:46:06.199 the signature, my name goes on the ballot and the 1979 01:46:06.279 --> 01:46:09.000 fifty two neighborhoods have a choice. Do you want me 1980 01:46:09.079 --> 01:46:11.960 back down there to give your neighborhood a voice. You're 1981 01:46:12.000 --> 01:46:14.239 not going to always agree with me, but what you 1982 01:46:14.279 --> 01:46:16.960 will get is the truth, and you'll get somebody with 1983 01:46:17.079 --> 01:46:20.800 common sense who loves the city of Cincinnati. And who 1984 01:46:20.840 --> 01:46:25.119 would never say that Holly was begging for the beatdown 1985 01:46:25.399 --> 01:46:27.640 that she got. I pray that I hear Holly on 1986 01:46:27.720 --> 01:46:30.359 this show five fifty. I hope she comes in and 1987 01:46:30.760 --> 01:46:34.159 gives you an interview. Her interviews are riveting. Anybody that 1988 01:46:34.279 --> 01:46:37.800 hasn't heard that your listening audience needs to hear from 1989 01:46:37.920 --> 01:46:40.800 Holly and her experiences. And I pray to God that 1990 01:46:40.960 --> 01:46:43.239 she comes on your show and gives you an interview. 1991 01:46:43.399 --> 01:46:45.840 And I'm pray to God my city dwelling residence going 1992 01:46:45.920 --> 01:46:48.600 on over to Jim and Jacks tomorrow and next several 1993 01:46:48.720 --> 01:46:50.920 days to sign the petition to get christ from I love. 1994 01:46:50.760 --> 01:46:54.199 You, Brian Thomas, my brother man.

It's time for money Monday with Brian 2022 01:48:14.880 --> 01:48:17.239 James from Allworth Financial. Brian James, Welcome back to the 2023 01:48:17.279 --> 01:48:19.439 morning show. Hope you had a great weekend. Good morning, 2024 01:48:19.479 --> 01:48:22.720 mister Thomas. Happy hot summer to you. Yeah. Really, I 2025 01:48:22.760 --> 01:48:24.760 thought we were done with that anyway, it is August. 2026 01:48:24.840 --> 01:48:26.319 I guess we'll have to roll with it until the 2027 01:48:26.399 --> 01:48:27.960 cooler temperatures come in. That's okay. 2028 01:48:28.640 --> 01:48:28.760 Uh. 2029 01:48:29.359 --> 01:48:31.319 It takes a little while for these tariffs to kind 2030 01:48:31.359 --> 01:48:33.239 of settle in. You and I have talked a lot 2031 01:48:33.279 --> 01:48:35.920 about Trump's on again, off again tariffs. You know, one 2032 01:48:35.920 --> 01:48:38.279 minute there's a fifty percent tariff, next minute it's been 2033 01:48:38.319 --> 01:48:41.640 held off. Negotiations begin or not, as the case may be, 2034 01:48:41.760 --> 01:48:44.159 the point being, ultimately you hope to sit down with 2035 01:48:44.239 --> 01:48:48.479 a country negotiate something that's palatable to both sides, sometimes successful, 2036 01:48:48.560 --> 01:48:52.000 sometimes not. But higher tariffs everyone has been saying are 2037 01:48:52.000 --> 01:48:54.640 going to result in higher prices, which does make sense. 2038 01:48:55.199 --> 01:48:57.399 Apparently that's starting to trickle in in terms of the 2039 01:48:57.520 --> 01:48:58.720 numbers that are reported. 2040 01:48:59.720 --> 01:49:01.800 Yep, we're starting to see some. You know, we've talked 2041 01:49:01.800 --> 01:49:03.960 about this before. We're hitting the point where, you know, 2042 01:49:04.079 --> 01:49:06.279 when the day we start talking about tariffs and the 2043 01:49:06.359 --> 01:49:08.319 headlines is not the day they start having an impact 2044 01:49:08.399 --> 01:49:10.880 on inflation, right, And in that situation for several months 2045 01:49:11.279 --> 01:49:13.439 and the way companies work. And we've talked about this 2046 01:49:13.479 --> 01:49:15.640 several times too. Remember there was a spike in economic 2047 01:49:15.760 --> 01:49:19.199 activity in Q one that looked fantastic, which wasn't beat 2048 01:49:19.239 --> 01:49:21.000 where the economy is still doing okay as we're sitting 2049 01:49:21.039 --> 01:49:23.039 here right now. The spike in Q one had a 2050 01:49:23.079 --> 01:49:26.479 lot to do with countries just staying ahead. Our companies 2051 01:49:26.560 --> 01:49:28.800 rather staying ahead when these tariffs are going to kick 2052 01:49:28.840 --> 01:49:31.000 in because everybody knew something was on the horizon, we 2053 01:49:31.079 --> 01:49:34.000 just didn't yet know what. Therefore, they were front loading 2054 01:49:34.039 --> 01:49:35.840 their inventories and things they had to buy just to 2055 01:49:35.840 --> 01:49:38.600 stay ahead of the pricing to buy themselves a little time. Well, 2056 01:49:38.880 --> 01:49:41.720 clocks taking and we're now those resources are somewhat depleted. 2057 01:49:41.760 --> 01:49:43.600 We kind of got to get back to where we were. 2058 01:49:44.199 --> 01:49:48.720 So course CPI. Let's switch to today's headlines. Core CPI 2059 01:49:48.840 --> 01:49:51.079 is projected to increase by about a three tenths of 2060 01:49:51.159 --> 01:49:53.720 a percent in July. That's the largest gain since early 2061 01:49:53.800 --> 01:49:56.279 twenty twenty five. I hate when we have headlines like 2062 01:49:56.359 --> 01:49:59.079 that that compared to some historic period that is not 2063 01:49:59.199 --> 01:50:02.079 that long ago, right, largest gain since six months ago. 2064 01:50:02.119 --> 01:50:05.960 Wooh yeah, it's a point, but it's the trajectory of course, 2065 01:50:06.600 --> 01:50:08.960 so yet we are seeing this because this is coming 2066 01:50:09.000 --> 01:50:13.319 from tariff induced price increases, household furnishings, recreational goods, those 2067 01:50:13.399 --> 01:50:16.319 kinds of things. Headline CPI of course, Now this is 2068 01:50:16.399 --> 01:50:19.319 kind of ironic, brind headline. CPI may only rise by 2069 01:50:19.439 --> 01:50:22.119 point by by about point two percent, and that is 2070 01:50:22.239 --> 01:50:25.119 helped by lower gasoline prices. How long has it been 2071 01:50:25.199 --> 01:50:27.159 since we looked at gas and oil as something that's 2072 01:50:27.239 --> 01:50:28.359 keeping inflation in check? 2073 01:50:28.520 --> 01:50:28.680 Oh? 2074 01:50:28.760 --> 01:50:31.279 I know, but I mean you can't deny the reality 2075 01:50:31.319 --> 01:50:33.159 of it. Gas is a lot cheaper right now. 2076 01:50:33.560 --> 01:50:35.520 And we talked about it all summer, right, we skipped 2077 01:50:35.560 --> 01:50:37.479 you and I skipped over the entire vacation period. We 2078 01:50:37.479 --> 01:50:38.920 didn't talk about the price of the pump. I don't 2079 01:50:38.920 --> 01:50:40.960 think I said those words all summer long. No, And 2080 01:50:41.079 --> 01:50:42.960 it's the first year, I think, And I mean this 2081 01:50:43.079 --> 01:50:45.159 is the heavy driving time. Of course, it has been 2082 01:50:45.279 --> 01:50:48.239 since school let out. So the idea that gasoline hasn't 2083 01:50:48.239 --> 01:50:50.520 been up when it traditionally spikes, it's a great omen. 2084 01:50:50.600 --> 01:50:53.800 Are we are we should we anticipate lower price gasoline 2085 01:50:53.800 --> 01:50:56.880 into the future, Brian, You know that, though that's always 2086 01:50:56.920 --> 01:50:59.039 tough to guess. My crystal balls as broke as everybody 2087 01:50:59.079 --> 01:51:01.399 else is. However, we do seem to be in an 2088 01:51:01.479 --> 01:51:04.840 environment where things are friendly, supplies are okay, We've we've 2089 01:51:04.880 --> 01:51:07.359 got more friendly regulation towards drilling in this country. 2090 01:51:07.800 --> 01:51:10.279 Uh, And I think that's what's what's keeping it down. 2091 01:51:10.319 --> 01:51:12.000 There's a lot of people not happy about that, and 2092 01:51:12.119 --> 01:51:14.159 there's you know, there's downsides to all this as well, 2093 01:51:14.439 --> 01:51:16.840 but currently that's what pushes it down the list of 2094 01:51:16.920 --> 01:51:19.039 stuff we should be worried about in terms about the 2095 01:51:19.079 --> 01:51:19.800 overall economy. 2096 01:51:19.840 --> 01:51:21.279 Now, I'm not overly worried that we're going to be 2097 01:51:21.319 --> 01:51:23.359 talking about gas prices in the near future. Well, I 2098 01:51:23.439 --> 01:51:25.600 keep hearing about all these billions of dollars that the 2099 01:51:25.720 --> 01:51:28.760 US has taken in as a consequence of these increased tariffs. 2100 01:51:29.880 --> 01:51:32.640 Where's where's our slice of that action? Brian? 2101 01:51:32.880 --> 01:51:35.279 You know, that's a great question, and I really wish 2102 01:51:35.359 --> 01:51:37.920 somebody could get past Carolyn Lovett with that and just 2103 01:51:38.520 --> 01:51:41.039 force the president to answer to say, where are all 2104 01:51:41.079 --> 01:51:43.600 these dollars going? Great, We're generating all this money, you know, 2105 01:51:43.680 --> 01:51:45.560 from these tariffs, where does it actually van is it 2106 01:51:45.600 --> 01:51:46.439 getting distributed? 2107 01:51:46.840 --> 01:51:48.640 Uh, you know, to to the you know, to the 2108 01:51:48.680 --> 01:51:49.720 people who voted all. 2109 01:51:49.680 --> 01:51:51.279 This into place, my guess is going to be no 2110 01:51:51.399 --> 01:51:53.359 otherwise we'd be talking about that because it would start 2111 01:51:53.399 --> 01:51:54.560 to sell votes for the midterms. 2112 01:51:54.880 --> 01:51:56.640 So my guess is it's simply going in. 2113 01:51:56.720 --> 01:51:59.159 To fill the holes that we're that are being created 2114 01:51:59.239 --> 01:52:01.880 with some of the the tax cuts on corporations. And 2115 01:52:02.439 --> 01:52:05.680 since we focused more on cutting taxes and really haven't 2116 01:52:05.720 --> 01:52:07.560 done much in the way of spending, DOSE seems to 2117 01:52:07.640 --> 01:52:08.680 have kind of gone away. 2118 01:52:09.119 --> 01:52:10.600 Very very quietly, I might add. 2119 01:52:10.640 --> 01:52:12.960 I you know, when you read all this on paper, 2120 01:52:13.319 --> 01:52:15.960 when it became clear what the platform was going to be, 2121 01:52:16.319 --> 01:52:18.119 it sounded like there was going to be a body 2122 01:52:18.159 --> 01:52:20.159 that was going to cut costs and then there was 2123 01:52:20.239 --> 01:52:21.920 going to be a body that was going to figure 2124 01:52:21.960 --> 01:52:23.840 out how to lower taxes in response, so at least 2125 01:52:23.880 --> 01:52:26.319 we keep things whatever balanced means anymore. 2126 01:52:26.560 --> 01:52:28.239 But that does not seem to have happened. I haven't 2127 01:52:28.520 --> 01:52:30.359 whatever happened to that wall of receipts from DOSE. 2128 01:52:30.520 --> 01:52:30.880 I don't know. 2129 01:52:31.359 --> 01:52:33.159 That's a long winded answer to say, I don't know, 2130 01:52:33.279 --> 01:52:35.000 but I sure am curious just like you. 2131 01:52:35.359 --> 01:52:35.399 No. 2132 01:52:35.680 --> 01:52:37.920 I mean, it's a legiti why I asked it out 2133 01:52:37.920 --> 01:52:40.399 a lot, it's a legitimate question. But I suppose if 2134 01:52:40.439 --> 01:52:42.119 you're looking at all the numbers, let's say at the 2135 01:52:42.199 --> 01:52:44.600 end of the year, we've taken in X billions of dollars. 2136 01:52:45.479 --> 01:52:48.000 That's money that we got that we otherwise wouldn't have received. 2137 01:52:48.119 --> 01:52:50.640 So the numbers, at least in terms of like deficit spending, 2138 01:52:51.279 --> 01:52:54.960 will be less, right, all things being equal, just by 2139 01:52:55.039 --> 01:52:58.720 virtue of the tariffs coming in. Yeah, and that that 2140 01:52:58.960 --> 01:53:00.319 is again paper. 2141 01:53:00.520 --> 01:53:02.560 I want to see this work mechanically, so let's talk 2142 01:53:02.600 --> 01:53:05.000 about the mechanics of it. So when we collect tariffs, 2143 01:53:05.000 --> 01:53:08.119 they're collected by the customs and border patrols, sent directly 2144 01:53:08.199 --> 01:53:08.800 to the treasury. 2145 01:53:09.000 --> 01:53:10.800 They're not ear marked specifically for. 2146 01:53:10.920 --> 01:53:14.239 Anything unless that's unless that's legislatively done, which that's not 2147 01:53:14.520 --> 01:53:17.039 something we do anymore apparently. But usually it just goes 2148 01:53:17.079 --> 01:53:19.520 into the kind of overall general government spending, reducing the 2149 01:53:19.560 --> 01:53:23.760 federal deficit. And sometimes there are specific earmarks for subsidies 2150 01:53:23.800 --> 01:53:26.319 like we mentioned, but that is in the past. That's 2151 01:53:26.359 --> 01:53:28.520 what we've done in the past. Now we are very 2152 01:53:29.520 --> 01:53:33.000 not exactly transparent about where it's going. So we're collecting 2153 01:53:33.079 --> 01:53:36.199 about fifty billion dollars annually, and the average tariff as 2154 01:53:36.239 --> 01:53:38.319 we're sitting here right now is about seventeen percent on 2155 01:53:38.680 --> 01:53:42.079 imported goods. That's the highest it's been since about the 2156 01:53:42.359 --> 01:53:45.399 nineteen thirties, Brian. So somebody is going to have to 2157 01:53:46.479 --> 01:53:48.640 explain where all these dollars are going, since we're bringing 2158 01:53:48.680 --> 01:53:49.880 in more than we have in a century. 2159 01:53:50.079 --> 01:53:52.279 Yep, no doubt. And one of the things I saw 2160 01:53:52.359 --> 01:53:54.359 I noted in the article in terms of price hikes, 2161 01:53:54.760 --> 01:53:57.760 they say firms are having a difficult time hiking prices 2162 01:53:57.880 --> 01:53:59.600 in spite of the fact that they're now facing these 2163 01:53:59.720 --> 01:54:03.039 terriffs they have to deal with because real disposable income 2164 01:54:03.159 --> 01:54:05.760 growth has not been very good for the household. So 2165 01:54:06.159 --> 01:54:08.359 the tail in people who are buying goods and services 2166 01:54:08.399 --> 01:54:10.920 don't have any more money to deal with a price increase, 2167 01:54:11.000 --> 01:54:13.960 which is causing firms and maybe hold off on increasing prices, 2168 01:54:14.000 --> 01:54:17.520 which means their profits are lower, which means their quarterly 2169 01:54:17.760 --> 01:54:19.640 earning statements are going to be lower. 2170 01:54:20.119 --> 01:54:20.319 Yeah. 2171 01:54:20.359 --> 01:54:24.239 So the narrative that happened during the during the campaign 2172 01:54:24.359 --> 01:54:26.439 and has continued is that other countries are going to 2173 01:54:26.479 --> 01:54:28.399 pay for this, other countries will pay Well, that's not 2174 01:54:28.439 --> 01:54:32.720 really the case. What we're doing is we're increasing the 2175 01:54:32.800 --> 01:54:36.119 cost of doing businesses for domestic company companies who have 2176 01:54:36.279 --> 01:54:38.760 to bring in these resources to create and sell their products, 2177 01:54:39.239 --> 01:54:42.079 they have to pass those through so and eventually the 2178 01:54:42.359 --> 01:54:44.479 consumer has pricing power. We live pretty high on the 2179 01:54:44.560 --> 01:54:46.399 hog in this country, so yes, when we have to, 2180 01:54:46.600 --> 01:54:48.039 that's a good thing. But when we have to, we 2181 01:54:48.159 --> 01:54:50.600 can and do tighten our belts. That's what we're starting 2182 01:54:50.600 --> 01:54:52.479 to see. We're starting to see the end consumer saying, 2183 01:54:52.520 --> 01:54:54.960 you know what, I really don't need this. I can 2184 01:54:55.000 --> 01:54:56.960 find another solution for this problem. I don't need to 2185 01:54:57.000 --> 01:54:59.239 spend this much. And that means those costs are not 2186 01:54:59.439 --> 01:55:02.239 being passed or they are being born, however, by the 2187 01:55:02.319 --> 01:55:05.039 companies that produce those products and services, not the countries 2188 01:55:05.079 --> 01:55:06.039 that sell us the resources. 2189 01:55:06.039 --> 01:55:08.239 All right, and the whole hope I believe by the 2190 01:55:08.239 --> 01:55:11.880 Trump administrations that over time that will re shore a 2191 01:55:11.960 --> 01:55:14.439 lot of the things that we're buying from these higher 2192 01:55:14.560 --> 01:55:17.479 tariff countries. Now you'll choose to build the products here 2193 01:55:17.520 --> 01:55:19.800 in the United States. But you know, there's still this 2194 01:55:19.960 --> 01:55:22.840 long long standing reality that the reason these things got 2195 01:55:22.880 --> 01:55:25.439 off short in the first place, manufacturing, et cetera. If 2196 01:55:25.479 --> 01:55:27.119 it's a hell of a lot cheaper to do it 2197 01:55:27.119 --> 01:55:30.479 in those other countries, question whether the tariff makes that 2198 01:55:30.960 --> 01:55:34.680 historic challenge, you know, to compete with the United States, 2199 01:55:34.680 --> 01:55:37.399 which has all these ocean rules and these environmental rules, 2200 01:55:37.479 --> 01:55:39.319 and it has all these labor rules, and instead of 2201 01:55:39.399 --> 01:55:42.359 making the price of building something here more expensive, does 2202 01:55:42.399 --> 01:55:45.520 that balance that to create a better environment here to 2203 01:55:45.640 --> 01:55:49.079 the extent that it's going to negate the tariff So 2204 01:55:49.359 --> 01:55:52.199 far it would seem to on paper, yes, we are. 2205 01:55:52.279 --> 01:55:55.159 We are seeing headlines of companies that are bringing bringing 2206 01:55:55.239 --> 01:55:57.960 manufacturing on back on shore. So Apple has committed to 2207 01:55:58.039 --> 01:56:01.359 six hundred billion dollars over four years. Right then there's 2208 01:56:01.399 --> 01:56:03.920 a huge plant going in down in Heridsburg, Kentucky. That's 2209 01:56:03.960 --> 01:56:05.800 going to be that's a corning plant that they make 2210 01:56:05.840 --> 01:56:08.119 gorilla glo. Yes, all the glass and iPhones. So there 2211 01:56:08.159 --> 01:56:11.439 are things happening. Taiwan Semiconductors is committing a lot in 2212 01:56:11.479 --> 01:56:14.640 the United States, Nvidia, Hyundai, Ford. There are a lot 2213 01:56:14.680 --> 01:56:17.399 of plans to get these factories up and running. However, 2214 01:56:17.520 --> 01:56:19.520 but like you mentioned, what is it cost to pay 2215 01:56:19.560 --> 01:56:22.279 a factory worker here in the United States versus somewhere else. 2216 01:56:22.439 --> 01:56:24.640 There are so many moving parts to this, Brian. 2217 01:56:24.800 --> 01:56:27.680 You've got countries that we've relied on for I don't know, 2218 01:56:27.760 --> 01:56:30.119 maybe a notch or two above slave labor because they 2219 01:56:30.159 --> 01:56:32.279 earn nothing, but they work in the factories here. You 2220 01:56:32.399 --> 01:56:34.239 can't do that because we do want to maintain a 2221 01:56:34.319 --> 01:56:38.640 certain standard of living for our citizens. However, that makes 2222 01:56:38.680 --> 01:56:41.079 everything more expensive. So what I have not yet seen 2223 01:56:41.199 --> 01:56:43.119 is what falls out. What's the cost of an iPhone 2224 01:56:43.159 --> 01:56:45.600 that is manufactured completely in the United States? How much 2225 01:56:45.640 --> 01:56:47.079 does it go up so that we can have that 2226 01:56:47.199 --> 01:56:47.720 stamp on it? 2227 01:56:47.920 --> 01:56:48.039 Right? 2228 01:56:48.119 --> 01:56:49.640 I don't know what's good or bad about it, but 2229 01:56:50.000 --> 01:56:51.760 that's a question has been answered yet for me. 2230 01:56:52.920 --> 01:56:55.600 Maybe there's that component or element that, well, Americans would 2231 01:56:55.600 --> 01:56:57.319 be more willing to pay a little bit more for 2232 01:56:57.439 --> 01:57:00.960 something made here. I know there's still some of patriotism 2233 01:57:01.000 --> 01:57:03.079 when it comes to choosing where goods and services are 2234 01:57:03.119 --> 01:57:03.840 created and manage. 2235 01:57:03.880 --> 01:57:06.800 Absolutely that still results in inflation somehow, some way. So 2236 01:57:07.000 --> 01:57:09.000 it does you know, political support purposes. 2237 01:57:09.039 --> 01:57:11.399 But money is money. Money is money. Let's come up 2238 01:57:11.399 --> 01:57:14.000 on eight fifty fifty five kr CD talk station. Do 2239 01:57:14.039 --> 01:57:15.840 you want crypto in your four oh one K? And 2240 01:57:16.319 --> 01:57:19.479 some new benefits companies are offering those two more subjects 2241 01:57:19.479 --> 01:57:21.439 we'll get in the next segment with Brian James. I'll 2242 01:57:21.479 --> 01:57:26.359 be right back fifty five KRC dot Com eight nineteen 2243 01:57:26.399 --> 01:57:29.079 fifty five kr CD talk station doing that money Monday 2244 01:57:29.159 --> 01:57:33.079 thing with all of financials, Brian James A. Brian, We've 2245 01:57:33.119 --> 01:57:36.159 talked about this before. Private equity as one of the 2246 01:57:36.239 --> 01:57:38.239 things that they're opening up to include in four to 2247 01:57:38.279 --> 01:57:42.399 one K program investments, along with maybe cryptocurrencies in a 2248 01:57:42.479 --> 01:57:45.079 state of FLUXI appear to be I guess quick question 2249 01:57:45.239 --> 01:57:47.880 up front, why can't we invest our four oh one 2250 01:57:47.960 --> 01:57:50.359 K dollars in these things? Or haven't been able to 2251 01:57:50.399 --> 01:57:52.600 deal with these things already? What's what's wrong with them 2252 01:57:52.680 --> 01:57:53.800 as an investment vehicle. 2253 01:57:54.279 --> 01:57:58.039 Well, in the past, I would say the Department of 2254 01:57:58.119 --> 01:58:00.279 Labor has rules in place. By the way, the Apartment 2255 01:58:00.319 --> 01:58:02.760 of Labor governs four oh one k's retirement plans, not 2256 01:58:03.159 --> 01:58:06.079 directly the SEC. The SEC plays a role, But you 2257 01:58:06.119 --> 01:58:07.960 can own a mutual fund inside your four oh one 2258 01:58:08.039 --> 01:58:10.720 K that is that the DL has an opinion on. 2259 01:58:10.800 --> 01:58:12.720 You can own the exact same tick or symbol mutual 2260 01:58:12.760 --> 01:58:15.479 fund outside in just a plain old broker's account, and 2261 01:58:15.520 --> 01:58:17.800 the DOL has nothing to do with it. So Department 2262 01:58:17.840 --> 01:58:21.119 of Labor historically has weighed in on retirement assets and 2263 01:58:21.720 --> 01:58:24.720 basically decided that the companies who provide them, your employers 2264 01:58:24.800 --> 01:58:29.079 and my employer has a fiduciary obligation to some extent 2265 01:58:29.159 --> 01:58:31.399 to make sure that people don't you know, effectively have 2266 01:58:31.560 --> 01:58:34.840 enough rope to hang themselves. And so that's why over 2267 01:58:34.840 --> 01:58:38.199 the years you've probably seen the reduction and options in 2268 01:58:38.239 --> 01:58:39.920 your four one K. I would see people early in 2269 01:58:39.960 --> 01:58:41.640 my career, they would bring in the list of choices 2270 01:58:41.680 --> 01:58:43.319 they have for all their mutual funds and there'd be 2271 01:58:43.439 --> 01:58:45.359 like fifty of them on there. The result of that 2272 01:58:45.479 --> 01:58:47.359 is people would do nothing and they would leave it 2273 01:58:47.399 --> 01:58:50.000 sit in the money market for ten fifteen years, and 2274 01:58:50.079 --> 01:58:51.760 then we would have to kind of explain exactly how 2275 01:58:51.840 --> 01:58:53.600 much money had been left on the table because they 2276 01:58:53.720 --> 01:58:55.840 didn't sit down and figure out how that works. Now 2277 01:58:56.319 --> 01:58:58.680 so that we dependulum kind of swung the other direction. 2278 01:58:58.840 --> 01:59:01.439 Then we saw a lot of reduction to the choices 2279 01:59:01.479 --> 01:59:04.239 you have and simplification. That's when target date funds came in. 2280 01:59:04.520 --> 01:59:06.119 You know you're going to retire in twenty fifty five. 2281 01:59:06.239 --> 01:59:08.199 Here's here's a catch all fund. Throw it all in 2282 01:59:08.239 --> 01:59:10.000 there and be done with it. And you saw now 2283 01:59:10.119 --> 01:59:12.119 nowadays there are funds out there or fur to one 2284 01:59:12.159 --> 01:59:14.680 k's that have very few options. Pendulum is now swinging 2285 01:59:14.760 --> 01:59:16.800 back the other way. We're throwing the door open. So 2286 01:59:17.399 --> 01:59:19.640 President Trump signed an order on the on August seventh, 2287 01:59:19.720 --> 01:59:23.359 just the other day called Democratizing Access to Alternative Assets 2288 01:59:23.439 --> 01:59:25.119 for four oh one K. I tried to figure out 2289 01:59:25.119 --> 01:59:25.880 the acronym for that. 2290 01:59:26.000 --> 01:59:28.920 There isn't one. I was looking for qt I. I 2291 01:59:29.079 --> 01:59:29.680 was disappointed. 2292 01:59:29.720 --> 01:59:33.520 But anyway, this order directs the d L, the SEC, 2293 01:59:33.720 --> 01:59:37.279 and the Treasury to update their regulations to enable alternative assets. 2294 01:59:37.359 --> 01:59:39.520 This is the kind of stuff such as private equity, 2295 01:59:39.600 --> 01:59:43.439 real estate, cryptocurrency, private debt, private equity, private debt. By 2296 01:59:43.479 --> 01:59:46.079 the way, what those are. Those are direct arrangements between you, you, 2297 01:59:46.199 --> 01:59:48.840 one human being, and some business. There's no exchange, there's 2298 01:59:48.880 --> 01:59:51.079 no stock market, bond market behind it. It's just an 2299 01:59:51.119 --> 01:59:54.479 exchange between you and you know whoever is the borrowing 2300 01:59:54.680 --> 01:59:58.279 entity or taking your capital for their investment. Technology these 2301 01:59:58.359 --> 02:00:01.479 days allows that to happen and mass, which means it 2302 02:00:01.520 --> 02:00:03.800 can look to the sort of like a mutual fund, 2303 02:00:03.840 --> 02:00:05.560 but there are just a lot more or a lot. 2304 02:00:05.520 --> 02:00:07.479 Fewer guardrails, if you will. 2305 02:00:07.520 --> 02:00:11.039 So the reason they're doing this though, Brian, twelve trillion 2306 02:00:11.159 --> 02:00:12.880 dollars is out there in four to one case that 2307 02:00:13.000 --> 02:00:15.720 currently is limited to mostly stock and bond and mutual 2308 02:00:15.760 --> 02:00:18.199 fund type investments. Obviously, there's a lot of people out 2309 02:00:18.199 --> 02:00:20.000 there who want to get their pause on those dollars 2310 02:00:20.479 --> 02:00:21.640 to push capital endeavors. 2311 02:00:22.359 --> 02:00:25.880 Okay, which you know crypto, you know, it's like piece 2312 02:00:25.920 --> 02:00:27.760 of God to me, Brian James. There's so many different 2313 02:00:27.800 --> 02:00:30.640 crypto forms out there, I can't keep track of even 2314 02:00:30.720 --> 02:00:32.199 the names. They seem to come out almost on a 2315 02:00:32.319 --> 02:00:35.960 daily basis. Of course, bitcoin's the most widely known among them. 2316 02:00:35.960 --> 02:00:38.159 And man, the price of bitcoin has gone through the roof. 2317 02:00:38.239 --> 02:00:41.479 But I mean, are are they really more valuable than 2318 02:00:41.520 --> 02:00:42.800 anything but ether? Brian? 2319 02:00:43.399 --> 02:00:46.760 You know, I have said this before on these airwaves 2320 02:00:46.800 --> 02:00:48.159 and I'll say it again, and I'll say it to 2321 02:00:48.199 --> 02:00:50.800 my clients. Crypto has a role, It plays a role 2322 02:00:51.079 --> 02:00:53.760 somehow in our financial world. 2323 02:00:54.279 --> 02:00:55.840 But to me, not yet. 2324 02:00:56.000 --> 02:00:59.520 It's just a medium of speculation, that's all. It is, 2325 02:00:59.560 --> 02:01:01.359 not being I don't even call it currency anymore. We 2326 02:01:01.439 --> 02:01:03.680 just called crypto. Used to be cryptocurrency. Now it's just crypto. 2327 02:01:03.840 --> 02:01:06.239 A currency is something that gets exchanged for other things. 2328 02:01:06.479 --> 02:01:07.920 This is just something we own and we hope the 2329 02:01:07.960 --> 02:01:09.920 price goes up. That's not how it was touted to 2330 02:01:09.960 --> 02:01:12.560 begin with. I believe eventually it will take its role 2331 02:01:12.640 --> 02:01:14.960 there somewhere, because there are a lot of efficiencies and 2332 02:01:15.039 --> 02:01:18.840 things to be gained by doing business on the blockchain. Frankly, 2333 02:01:19.159 --> 02:01:22.000 but whether it's bitcoin or dogecoin or trump coin or 2334 02:01:22.079 --> 02:01:24.039 all of that, that's the speculative side of things. 2335 02:01:24.279 --> 02:01:25.800 So I'm a little concerned. 2336 02:01:25.840 --> 02:01:29.800 I'm not a little I'm significantly concerned about people again 2337 02:01:29.920 --> 02:01:31.600 having way too much access to this. 2338 02:01:31.720 --> 02:01:32.479 So think about it this way. 2339 02:01:32.520 --> 02:01:34.520 If I'm somebody who has never invested, and now I 2340 02:01:34.600 --> 02:01:36.319 can in my four to one K, but I never 2341 02:01:36.359 --> 02:01:38.520 had the opportunity, so I didn't bother to learn. If 2342 02:01:38.600 --> 02:01:40.159 I just go check a box that, yeah, I want 2343 02:01:40.199 --> 02:01:42.760 twenty five percent or fifty or worse in my four 2344 02:01:42.800 --> 02:01:44.640 to one k and whatever the new crypto fund is, 2345 02:01:44.800 --> 02:01:46.439 then I'm going to about to learn a hard lesson 2346 02:01:46.439 --> 02:01:46.920 about life. 2347 02:01:47.119 --> 02:01:49.159 Well, and it sounds to me like a bubble that's 2348 02:01:49.239 --> 02:01:52.359 ripe to burst. Brian, Yeah, it's tough to say. That's 2349 02:01:52.399 --> 02:01:54.199 not the only thing that holds me back on that 2350 02:01:54.359 --> 02:01:56.039 is that the demand is obviously still there. 2351 02:01:56.119 --> 02:01:56.319 I do. 2352 02:01:56.800 --> 02:01:59.920 It's a little different from the other you know, mania 2353 02:02:00.079 --> 02:02:01.920 that we've had in the past, because there does seem 2354 02:02:01.960 --> 02:02:04.600 to be some utility to it at some point. However, 2355 02:02:04.720 --> 02:02:06.640 we are not yet using it that way, and really 2356 02:02:07.000 --> 02:02:08.720 our leaders aren't talking about it that way. 2357 02:02:09.000 --> 02:02:10.720 Yeah, you can't go to Kruger and pay your bill 2358 02:02:10.760 --> 02:02:11.880 with crypto, right. 2359 02:02:12.479 --> 02:02:13.880 They don't want it either, because they don't want their 2360 02:02:14.039 --> 02:02:15.760 unerceivable to bounce, you know. 2361 02:02:15.880 --> 02:02:19.319 And the widely fluctuating value of any cryptocurrency in terms 2362 02:02:19.319 --> 02:02:21.840 of its market value, like thirty thousand dollars per coin 2363 02:02:21.920 --> 02:02:24.159 on bitcoin, and that could change tomorrow, it could be 2364 02:02:24.199 --> 02:02:26.720 worth fifteen thousand. How do you judge the value of 2365 02:02:26.800 --> 02:02:31.079 any given transaction with an ever fluctuating, widely fluctuating market. 2366 02:02:31.520 --> 02:02:34.880 It's again, all any investment is is the product of 2367 02:02:34.880 --> 02:02:36.560 an auction. That's all the stock market is. What does 2368 02:02:36.600 --> 02:02:37.920 everybody think it's worth right now? 2369 02:02:38.000 --> 02:02:38.279 Today? 2370 02:02:38.479 --> 02:02:41.039 Your house isn't an auction. Somebody will pay something for it. 2371 02:02:41.159 --> 02:02:41.920 What is the something? 2372 02:02:42.159 --> 02:02:45.279 Cryptocurrency changes twenty four hours, seven days a week. The 2373 02:02:45.359 --> 02:02:46.479 other thing I'll throw out here for those of you 2374 02:02:46.520 --> 02:02:48.439 who might be excited thinking about this, remember, if you're 2375 02:02:48.479 --> 02:02:51.000 dipping your toe in the water dip your small toe, 2376 02:02:51.239 --> 02:02:53.680 because even if this goes the wrong way on you, 2377 02:02:54.000 --> 02:02:55.920 you will not get to deduct the loss because it's 2378 02:02:55.960 --> 02:02:58.359 tax sheltered already inside your four oh one k ooh. 2379 02:02:58.800 --> 02:03:00.800 Valuable point from Brian James. Real quick here, we won't 2380 02:03:00.840 --> 02:03:03.119 have time to dive on really deeply. But is the 2381 02:03:03.199 --> 02:03:05.920 market that competitive for employers out there hiring people that 2382 02:03:06.000 --> 02:03:09.319 they have to offer all these different extra options beyond 2383 02:03:09.439 --> 02:03:13.079 just for one K match and some some medical insurance apparently. 2384 02:03:13.159 --> 02:03:15.000 So we've got some companies out there offering some pretty 2385 02:03:15.000 --> 02:03:16.159 pretty crazy things out there. 2386 02:03:16.520 --> 02:03:18.640 So there's there's the typical, right. 2387 02:03:18.720 --> 02:03:21.039 So Amazon will cover ninety five percent of tuition for 2388 02:03:21.159 --> 02:03:24.640 in demand career training. Starbucks does similar, Walmart target They're 2389 02:03:24.680 --> 02:03:28.000 they're all helping people get higher educations. That's not too crazy. 2390 02:03:28.039 --> 02:03:29.720 That's been out there for a while. But we're now 2391 02:03:29.800 --> 02:03:34.039 starting to see things such as surrogacy, adoption and fertility 2392 02:03:34.039 --> 02:03:35.720 support out there. This isn't a bad thing, it's just 2393 02:03:35.880 --> 02:03:38.920 it's an interesting step that we're taking Morgan Stanley into 2394 02:03:38.960 --> 02:03:40.479 a Deloitte or some of the names on that list. 2395 02:03:40.760 --> 02:03:43.479 Here's a crazy one. Some of the fintech. 2396 02:03:43.119 --> 02:03:45.239 Providers out there, these these are the these are the 2397 02:03:45.560 --> 02:03:48.159 sort of West Coast kind of out there technology companies. 2398 02:03:48.279 --> 02:03:52.159 Mortgage as a benefit, so home buying, education, interest rate discount. 2399 02:03:52.239 --> 02:03:54.000 So in other words, what they're doing is what is 2400 02:03:54.079 --> 02:03:56.199 scaring the pants off of people, and then let's try 2401 02:03:56.239 --> 02:03:59.000 to offer that as some kind of a some kind 2402 02:03:59.039 --> 02:04:01.000 of a benefit to work here. And of course this 2403 02:04:01.159 --> 02:04:04.039 is happening in well, California, because that's where people are 2404 02:04:04.119 --> 02:04:05.960 most scared of thee Yeah, no doubt. 2405 02:04:06.000 --> 02:04:08.359 Who can afford a home in California? And of course 2406 02:04:08.399 --> 02:04:14.359 something Joe Strecker gets paid vacations with a stipend company 2407 02:04:14.439 --> 02:04:17.920 retreats music festivals. There you go add it to the list. Well, 2408 02:04:18.439 --> 02:04:20.680 if competition's out there and you're gonna have to step 2409 02:04:20.760 --> 02:04:22.279 up to the plate to compete in the market, that's 2410 02:04:22.319 --> 02:04:25.439 what they're doing.

What is it that they do. 2535 02:10:37.600 --> 02:10:40.880 That particular part of Children's Hospital With the Care Fund, 2536 02:10:41.520 --> 02:10:44.880 the money goes directly to the families in needs, so 2537 02:10:45.000 --> 02:10:49.640 whether that be medical expenses or maybe stays in Cincinnati 2538 02:10:49.800 --> 02:10:52.359 to be with their be with their children as they're 2539 02:10:52.359 --> 02:10:55.560 going through these difficult situations. It does not go directly 2540 02:10:55.600 --> 02:10:58.119 to the hospital and into the hospital's general fund. They 2541 02:10:58.199 --> 02:10:59.720 do a lot of great work with a lot of 2542 02:10:59.760 --> 02:11:03.800 other organizations that help support the greater good, but we 2543 02:11:03.960 --> 02:11:07.760 wanted to support individual families and folks that are really 2544 02:11:07.800 --> 02:11:10.239 struggling and need to be here to support their children. 2545 02:11:10.359 --> 02:11:13.680 So this goes directly to the families the need, and 2546 02:11:13.800 --> 02:11:17.199 since anty Children's is a magnet from stay across the country. 2547 02:11:17.239 --> 02:11:19.680 But you get a lot of folks on life's margins 2548 02:11:19.720 --> 02:11:21.880 that come in from out of town that obviously have 2549 02:11:22.039 --> 02:11:24.960 living expenses as he mentioned, and other spences that they 2550 02:11:25.039 --> 02:11:27.079 really can't manage, but they do need the wonderful care 2551 02:11:27.159 --> 02:11:29.600 the Children's offers. So you're helping the charitable care fund 2552 02:11:29.640 --> 02:11:32.079 out deal with that, and you're playing golf and having 2553 02:11:32.119 --> 02:11:35.159 a good time while doing it.

So then elevator is no longer 2590 02:13:16.000 --> 02:13:17.640 a problem with the VA. All right, moving over, how 2591 02:13:17.640 --> 02:13:19.720 did it go at the Country Music vestl you head 2592 02:13:19.760 --> 02:13:21.039 out the VOA Park. 2593 02:13:22.319 --> 02:13:23.439 Yeah, it was fantastic. 2594 02:13:23.720 --> 02:13:26.720 We had an opportunity to showcase one of our mobile 2595 02:13:26.800 --> 02:13:30.640 unit assets out there starting Thursday through Sunday, and we 2596 02:13:30.840 --> 02:13:35.640 had about approximately over two hundred veterans come through through 2597 02:13:35.720 --> 02:13:38.159 our area and engaging us and talk with us. And 2598 02:13:38.560 --> 02:13:40.319 one of the things we're really happy about is we 2599 02:13:40.439 --> 02:13:41.119 got twenty. 2600 02:13:40.920 --> 02:13:43.279 Five new veterans rolled in the VA healthcare. 2601 02:13:43.000 --> 02:13:45.720 System over the weekend, but just more and more folks 2602 02:13:45.760 --> 02:13:49.479 that's coming. By asking questions, you know, trying to confirm things, 2603 02:13:49.560 --> 02:13:52.399 gave out a lot of information. But I got to say, Brian, 2604 02:13:52.479 --> 02:13:54.159 one of the things that you and I have talked 2605 02:13:54.199 --> 02:13:57.319 about for a long time, and something I've been challenged 2606 02:13:57.359 --> 02:13:59.880 with I'm really blessed with for the last thirty years, 2607 02:14:00.119 --> 02:14:02.560 is just talking with veterans. But you know there's a 2608 02:14:02.640 --> 02:14:04.920 lot of veterans still out there that are not enrolled 2609 02:14:04.960 --> 02:14:06.720 because you know, well, I don't want to take away 2610 02:14:06.840 --> 02:14:08.720 things from other people that need it more than me, 2611 02:14:09.079 --> 02:14:13.720 or somebody deserves it more. Every veteran deserves the opportunity 2612 02:14:13.840 --> 02:14:17.399 to use their benefits here in Cincinnati. But it was 2613 02:14:17.439 --> 02:14:19.279 a good time out there, and kudos to those folks 2614 02:14:19.319 --> 02:14:20.159 that put on that event. 2615 02:14:20.359 --> 02:14:22.439 Had to be a lot of work, Oh absolutely, and 2616 02:14:22.479 --> 02:14:24.439 I'm glad you got this. Twenty five veterans signed up, 2617 02:14:24.520 --> 02:14:28.159 and I can't encourage my veteran audience to really consider 2618 02:14:28.279 --> 02:14:32.359 signing up. I mean, some I guess are priced out 2619 02:14:32.399 --> 02:14:34.600 of eligibility if your earnings are too high. But my 2620 02:14:34.920 --> 02:14:36.920 default is to sort of look at it. It's like, well, 2621 02:14:36.960 --> 02:14:40.199 you got paid X, but that X salary that you 2622 02:14:40.239 --> 02:14:43.600 made when your active duty sort of factored in or 2623 02:14:43.680 --> 02:14:47.359 didn't include this valuable post service benefit that you get 2624 02:14:47.399 --> 02:14:49.720 from the VA. I mean you think about hearing aids 2625 02:14:49.760 --> 02:14:53.520 and glasses and mental health services and all these things 2626 02:14:53.600 --> 02:14:57.159 the VA provides by way of medical care that's there 2627 02:14:57.279 --> 02:15:00.359 and available to the veterans for free. It's why wouldn't 2628 02:15:00.359 --> 02:15:03.640 you take advantage of it. He asked, yeah, no, I 2629 02:15:04.319 --> 02:15:05.000 totally agree. 2630 02:15:05.000 --> 02:15:06.520 And we had that question a lot of times a 2631 02:15:06.520 --> 02:15:09.199 lot this weekend, and the veterans that said, you know, 2632 02:15:09.279 --> 02:15:11.079 I was told I was over income or I didn't 2633 02:15:11.079 --> 02:15:13.520 meet this kind of threshold, so you know, which will 2634 02:15:13.600 --> 02:15:17.199 lead into our next conversation, talk to a service officer. 2635 02:15:17.600 --> 02:15:20.359 I encourage every veteran to talk to a service officer 2636 02:15:20.399 --> 02:15:23.720 about filing a claim because you know, depending on you know, 2637 02:15:24.000 --> 02:15:27.840 the natural mos that veterans say have, there are conditions 2638 02:15:27.920 --> 02:15:30.520 that they've probably experienced later on in life that are 2639 02:15:30.640 --> 02:15:33.520 result from their service in the military. I was talking 2640 02:15:33.560 --> 02:15:35.800 to one gentleman just jokingly. He said, yeah, I was 2641 02:15:35.840 --> 02:15:39.359 a rifleman and he had two hearing aids in his ears. Yeah, 2642 02:15:39.359 --> 02:15:41.239 And I said, do you get this through the VA? 2643 02:15:41.319 --> 02:15:42.720 He goes, No, he goes. 2644 02:15:42.800 --> 02:15:44.920 I got him out of the private sector, and I 2645 02:15:45.640 --> 02:15:46.640 distantly asked him. 2646 02:15:46.520 --> 02:15:49.600 What he paid for him thousand, five thousand dollars five 2647 02:15:49.640 --> 02:15:53.039 thousand dollars each, I knew, so when I told him that, 2648 02:15:53.439 --> 02:15:54.439 when I told him about what. 2649 02:15:54.880 --> 02:15:57.079 We could be doing for him, his his wife gave 2650 02:15:57.159 --> 02:15:59.720 him that gentle love cap on the shoulder and said, see, 2651 02:15:59.760 --> 02:16:01.920 I told just so. So it's things like that, and 2652 02:16:02.000 --> 02:16:03.760 I think a lot of veterans, as we talked over 2653 02:16:03.840 --> 02:16:06.119 the weekend, is they don't realize that you can have 2654 02:16:06.359 --> 02:16:09.479 private health insurance and use the VA, which is a 2655 02:16:09.680 --> 02:16:10.720 huge plus. 2656 02:16:10.920 --> 02:16:14.520 It's a huge plus because it allows you to if 2657 02:16:14.600 --> 02:16:17.479 something's too expensive or something you shouldn't be paying out 2658 02:16:17.479 --> 02:16:20.319 of pocket for it in the private sector, you can 2659 02:16:20.359 --> 02:16:21.279 get that done at the VA. 2660 02:16:21.520 --> 02:16:24.000 Yeah, you think of the massive out of pocket liability 2661 02:16:24.039 --> 02:16:26.640 you've got before insurance even kicks in. Hey, how about 2662 02:16:26.680 --> 02:16:28.439 the VA.
