00:00:00.120 --> 00:00:03.040
<v Speaker 1>This is May twenty twenty two, and so I think

2
00:00:03.080 --> 00:00:05.160
<v Speaker 1>one of his final acts may be pardoning his son.

3
00:00:05.160 --> 00:00:08.400
<v Speaker 2>Clay Travis, said Buck Sexton today at noon on fifty

4
00:00:08.439 --> 00:00:11.279
<v Speaker 2>five KRC the talk station.

5
00:00:20.519 --> 00:00:21.559
<v Speaker 3>Five O five.

6
00:00:23.239 --> 00:00:29.160
<v Speaker 2>A fifty five k r C the talk station, Happy Monday.

7
00:00:27.399 --> 00:00:37.000
<v Speaker 2>Serious and of my vacation away, some says say, will

8
00:00:40.280 --> 00:00:41.640
<v Speaker 2>it is a vacation.

9
00:00:42.679 --> 00:00:44.520
<v Speaker 4>This winter is coming.

10
00:00:45.520 --> 00:00:50.000
<v Speaker 2>It's here. Thank you to Kevin Gordon and Dan Carroll

11
00:00:50.039 --> 00:00:51.920
<v Speaker 2>for covering for me while I was on vacation. Boy

12
00:00:52.079 --> 00:00:56.439
<v Speaker 2>at that time just goes by like instantaneously. Anyway, Brian

13
00:00:56.479 --> 00:00:57.880
<v Speaker 2>Thomas is glad to be back here at work and

14
00:00:57.920 --> 00:01:00.719
<v Speaker 2>of course very very very happy to pull in the

15
00:01:00.719 --> 00:01:03.479
<v Speaker 2>garage this morning after a treacherous drive onto the work

16
00:01:03.840 --> 00:01:07.159
<v Speaker 2>and see Joe Strecker's vehicle there. He had the foresight

17
00:01:07.239 --> 00:01:12.480
<v Speaker 2>to stay at a hotel close by. I need to

18
00:01:12.519 --> 00:01:16.760
<v Speaker 2>go into the the the the oil that the machine

19
00:01:16.799 --> 00:01:20.000
<v Speaker 2>here needs to be properly running. But I presume Joe

20
00:01:20.040 --> 00:01:22.519
<v Speaker 2>will ultimately get reimbursed for something that he was told

21
00:01:22.560 --> 00:01:25.239
<v Speaker 2>he was allowed to do. Anyway, fingers crossed on that

22
00:01:25.319 --> 00:01:27.079
<v Speaker 2>Joe Strecker. Good to see him, man, I hope you

23
00:01:27.159 --> 00:01:29.760
<v Speaker 2>had enjoyed the time off or whatever time you had off,

24
00:01:29.840 --> 00:01:32.040
<v Speaker 2>if any, and then you enjoy the peace and quiet

25
00:01:32.040 --> 00:01:34.400
<v Speaker 2>of an empty building. Apparently that's pretty much what was

26
00:01:34.439 --> 00:01:36.200
<v Speaker 2>going on around here for the past at least a

27
00:01:36.200 --> 00:01:38.640
<v Speaker 2>week or so. Anyway, if you care to call, I

28
00:01:38.680 --> 00:01:41.120
<v Speaker 2>would love to hear from you, which is always the case.

29
00:01:41.120 --> 00:01:43.640
<v Speaker 2>Five one, three, seven, nine fifty eight hundred and eight

30
00:01:43.680 --> 00:01:45.519
<v Speaker 2>two to three talker with tund fight fifty on at

31
00:01:45.599 --> 00:01:48.000
<v Speaker 2>and t funds. Go back to the roads. Yeah, my

32
00:01:48.079 --> 00:01:51.879
<v Speaker 2>commute is not that long normally, you know, less than

33
00:01:51.920 --> 00:01:54.640
<v Speaker 2>fifteen minutes from my driveway to pull in here to

34
00:01:54.680 --> 00:01:59.480
<v Speaker 2>eighty forty four Montgomery Road. But it is not a

35
00:01:59.519 --> 00:02:02.439
<v Speaker 2>good place to be on the road today. So many

36
00:02:02.519 --> 00:02:05.319
<v Speaker 2>of them look like they've been shoveled once, although the

37
00:02:05.400 --> 00:02:08.199
<v Speaker 2>accumulation built up after the first shoveling, so you know,

38
00:02:08.240 --> 00:02:11.080
<v Speaker 2>I'm driving through like three four inches of snow. Sometimes,

39
00:02:11.120 --> 00:02:16.240
<v Speaker 2>you know, when people are shoveling their respective businesses, they

40
00:02:16.280 --> 00:02:18.719
<v Speaker 2>push the snow out into the middle of Montgomery Road.

41
00:02:18.800 --> 00:02:21.199
<v Speaker 2>So you got some giant piles and the night to

42
00:02:21.280 --> 00:02:23.919
<v Speaker 2>drive right through those. But fortunately my wife's car is

43
00:02:24.000 --> 00:02:26.159
<v Speaker 2>all wheel drive, so I drove that one this morning

44
00:02:26.199 --> 00:02:27.960
<v Speaker 2>because I think I'd be in a ditch somewhere if

45
00:02:27.960 --> 00:02:31.000
<v Speaker 2>I had to take my car because it's three wheel drive. Anyhow,

46
00:02:31.199 --> 00:02:33.360
<v Speaker 2>the best thing to do is just not go out.

47
00:02:35.360 --> 00:02:40.000
<v Speaker 2>That's easy for some to say. If you have the option, though,

48
00:02:40.280 --> 00:02:42.560
<v Speaker 2>please give them some time to get the roads taken

49
00:02:42.560 --> 00:02:44.360
<v Speaker 2>care of, at least better than they are right now.

50
00:02:45.120 --> 00:02:48.520
<v Speaker 2>Not a great place to be anyway. So they got

51
00:02:48.560 --> 00:02:52.680
<v Speaker 2>a storm warning remains ineffected until midnight tonight, heavy mixed precipitation,

52
00:02:52.960 --> 00:02:56.000
<v Speaker 2>additional snow and sleep accumulation. They're saying between two and

53
00:02:56.080 --> 00:02:59.919
<v Speaker 2>four inches ice accumulations up to one tenth of an inch.

54
00:03:00.520 --> 00:03:05.360
<v Speaker 2>That'll suck. They're saying it's covering portions of southeast Indiana,

55
00:03:05.479 --> 00:03:09.319
<v Speaker 2>northern Kentucky, south central and southwest Ohio. So you know,

56
00:03:10.000 --> 00:03:14.000
<v Speaker 2>basically the circle around greater Cincinnati area, and it lasts

57
00:03:14.080 --> 00:03:17.879
<v Speaker 2>until midnight tonight. So plan on the slippery road conditions,

58
00:03:17.879 --> 00:03:21.840
<v Speaker 2>has its conditions, and it will certainly impact the commute

59
00:03:21.840 --> 00:03:26.280
<v Speaker 2>this morning and as well as evening commutes, so be prepared.

60
00:03:26.520 --> 00:03:29.280
<v Speaker 2>And one of the warnings was saying keep an extra

61
00:03:29.360 --> 00:03:31.960
<v Speaker 2>flash light. How many flashlights you have in your car, Joe,

62
00:03:34.120 --> 00:03:37.000
<v Speaker 2>do you have to? Really? We'll get one more, it

63
00:03:37.039 --> 00:03:41.759
<v Speaker 2>says keep an extra flashlight in there. I never even

64
00:03:41.800 --> 00:03:48.319
<v Speaker 2>considered a flashlight. Maybe that's something I should consider. And

65
00:03:48.439 --> 00:03:51.159
<v Speaker 2>we also consider putting some food and water in your

66
00:03:51.240 --> 00:03:59.759
<v Speaker 2>vehicle just in case of emergency. That of course makes sense. Yes,

67
00:04:00.280 --> 00:04:03.120
<v Speaker 2>bread and milk, and it's cold enough out there. As

68
00:04:03.199 --> 00:04:05.960
<v Speaker 2>long as your heater's not onto the car'll it'll maintain

69
00:04:06.039 --> 00:04:10.759
<v Speaker 2>the freshness of the milk anyway, So you know, and

70
00:04:10.840 --> 00:04:12.879
<v Speaker 2>I guess there's probably no schools open. You can get

71
00:04:12.879 --> 00:04:15.159
<v Speaker 2>a five ks dot com get the school closure list.

72
00:04:15.159 --> 00:04:17.920
<v Speaker 2>Although with modern technology, I'm sure if you have a

73
00:04:17.959 --> 00:04:20.720
<v Speaker 2>school age child, you probably already got a text saying

74
00:04:20.959 --> 00:04:24.519
<v Speaker 2>don't come in today, schools closed. At least, you know,

75
00:04:24.519 --> 00:04:26.480
<v Speaker 2>in this particular case, I can at least justify the

76
00:04:26.519 --> 00:04:30.560
<v Speaker 2>schools being closed, having just experienced pretty terrible road conditions

77
00:04:30.759 --> 00:04:35.639
<v Speaker 2>on roads that are pretty much maintained, you know, first order,

78
00:04:35.720 --> 00:04:37.839
<v Speaker 2>like Montgomery Road, for example. I did not get on

79
00:04:37.879 --> 00:04:39.879
<v Speaker 2>the expressway I normally do. So I have no idea

80
00:04:39.920 --> 00:04:43.439
<v Speaker 2>what seventy one is like. And again, to the extent

81
00:04:43.480 --> 00:04:46.720
<v Speaker 2>you can avoid it, don't go out and find out

82
00:04:46.720 --> 00:04:50.360
<v Speaker 2>on your own. And as this messive storm inundates most

83
00:04:50.360 --> 00:04:52.639
<v Speaker 2>of the Midwest. They're still going to swear in Donald

84
00:04:52.680 --> 00:04:55.920
<v Speaker 2>Trump today, according to House Speaker Mike Johnson. Least he

85
00:04:56.000 --> 00:04:58.959
<v Speaker 2>said that yesterday. The Electoral count Act requires this on

86
00:04:59.079 --> 00:05:01.639
<v Speaker 2>January sixth on on PMS. Whether we're in a blizzard

87
00:05:01.720 --> 00:05:05.680
<v Speaker 2>or not, we're going to be in that chamber making

88
00:05:05.720 --> 00:05:10.120
<v Speaker 2>sure this is done. So saith speaker, and he's confirmed.

89
00:05:10.439 --> 00:05:13.600
<v Speaker 2>Mike Johnson, do you only hold out Congressman Thomas Massey?

90
00:05:13.920 --> 00:05:16.240
<v Speaker 2>What do you think about that? You know? And and

91
00:05:16.319 --> 00:05:17.920
<v Speaker 2>to that end, I had a lot of people were

92
00:05:17.959 --> 00:05:22.120
<v Speaker 2>asking you about that, and honestly, say what you want

93
00:05:22.160 --> 00:05:28.439
<v Speaker 2>about Johnson. It's probably best for the Republicans generally speaking

94
00:05:28.519 --> 00:05:31.800
<v Speaker 2>to have accepted Johnson, keep them in position so they

95
00:05:31.800 --> 00:05:35.120
<v Speaker 2>can move forward with a smooth transition into actually getting

96
00:05:35.199 --> 00:05:40.399
<v Speaker 2>something done on behalf of the American people, like cutting

97
00:05:40.399 --> 00:05:42.600
<v Speaker 2>the size and the scope of government. Again, I'm excited

98
00:05:42.600 --> 00:05:45.160
<v Speaker 2>about Doge and you know, Joe Strecker putting out the

99
00:05:45.279 --> 00:05:52.199
<v Speaker 2>entire Rand Paul Festivus report, and you know, I think

100
00:05:52.240 --> 00:05:58.399
<v Speaker 2>you have every right, every right and I don't know

101
00:05:58.399 --> 00:06:04.040
<v Speaker 2>how this this is beyond political perspective. To be frankly,

102
00:06:04.079 --> 00:06:06.040
<v Speaker 2>I can say at the five o'clock are pissed off

103
00:06:09.120 --> 00:06:12.600
<v Speaker 2>when you read what you have worked for that our

104
00:06:12.639 --> 00:06:19.360
<v Speaker 2>elected officials have paid your your labor. And I always

105
00:06:19.399 --> 00:06:21.800
<v Speaker 2>expressed it in terms of labor. You went to work,

106
00:06:21.839 --> 00:06:25.399
<v Speaker 2>they taxed your earnings. They literally you're a slave to

107
00:06:25.439 --> 00:06:34.079
<v Speaker 2>the federal government to whatever extent they want. And when

108
00:06:34.120 --> 00:06:39.560
<v Speaker 2>you read about what they spend your labor on, I'm

109
00:06:39.600 --> 00:06:42.360
<v Speaker 2>surprised we haven't had like I mean, I remember the

110
00:06:42.399 --> 00:06:45.000
<v Speaker 2>tea party days, and boy, weren't we all excited about that.

111
00:06:45.360 --> 00:06:50.839
<v Speaker 2>A new tea party springing from the original one. About taxes,

112
00:06:50.879 --> 00:06:54.360
<v Speaker 2>I mean, no, dump a MT into the ocean. A

113
00:06:54.439 --> 00:06:57.399
<v Speaker 2>revolt is almost in order on this kind of thing.

114
00:06:58.319 --> 00:07:01.560
<v Speaker 2>When you read what they've spent your money on, it

115
00:07:01.600 --> 00:07:06.439
<v Speaker 2>should be in order. I can only pray and hope

116
00:07:06.439 --> 00:07:09.000
<v Speaker 2>that this new administration actually can do something about this.

117
00:07:09.120 --> 00:07:16.000
<v Speaker 2>We are drowning in debt. Congressional Budget Office predicts we

118
00:07:16.040 --> 00:07:23.279
<v Speaker 2>will add an average of two point one trillion dollars

119
00:07:23.360 --> 00:07:26.920
<v Speaker 2>in debt annually for the next decade. Now that's a

120
00:07:27.000 --> 00:07:30.839
<v Speaker 2>quote from the summary of the Happy Festivus Report from

121
00:07:30.920 --> 00:07:34.439
<v Speaker 2>Rand Paul. But think about that. The Congressional Budget Office

122
00:07:34.480 --> 00:07:38.639
<v Speaker 2>predicts only ten years out. That's where they stop This

123
00:07:38.720 --> 00:07:41.920
<v Speaker 2>doesn't mean after ten years we're gonna stop spending an

124
00:07:42.000 --> 00:07:48.519
<v Speaker 2>additional two point one trillion dollars average. It's going to

125
00:07:48.600 --> 00:07:53.079
<v Speaker 2>continue on into the foreseeable future, even the unforseeable future.

126
00:07:53.639 --> 00:07:58.879
<v Speaker 2>That's just where the CBO decides to stop looking. But

127
00:07:59.000 --> 00:08:03.360
<v Speaker 2>isn't that bad enough. Acquard to a July House Budget

128
00:08:03.399 --> 00:08:06.519
<v Speaker 2>Committee for the United States government will add over get

129
00:08:06.519 --> 00:08:10.639
<v Speaker 2>a load of this six point four billion dollars of

130
00:08:10.720 --> 00:08:17.399
<v Speaker 2>debt every single day for the next ten years, again

131
00:08:17.480 --> 00:08:19.680
<v Speaker 2>stopping at ten years, because they don't look further than that,

132
00:08:19.959 --> 00:08:27.279
<v Speaker 2>borrowing two hundred and sixty eight million dollars every hour,

133
00:08:29.240 --> 00:08:33.080
<v Speaker 2>which translates to four point five million dollars every minute

134
00:08:33.159 --> 00:08:37.120
<v Speaker 2>and seventy four four hundred and one dollars every single second.

135
00:08:41.399 --> 00:08:43.039
<v Speaker 2>When the mic came on at five oh five, it's

136
00:08:43.039 --> 00:08:45.600
<v Speaker 2>five thirteen right now. I could do the math on that.

137
00:08:45.600 --> 00:08:48.639
<v Speaker 2>That is just an just an amazing amount of money

138
00:08:48.639 --> 00:08:51.840
<v Speaker 2>that we have added to our debt. That's beyond what

139
00:08:51.879 --> 00:08:56.679
<v Speaker 2>they take from in taxes. This is excess so that

140
00:08:56.720 --> 00:09:01.159
<v Speaker 2>we can spend it on what nailing cats spinning dishes

141
00:09:01.240 --> 00:09:05.919
<v Speaker 2>to see what happens to them, so that we can

142
00:09:05.960 --> 00:09:13.840
<v Speaker 2>promote circuses in city parks so that we can pay

143
00:09:13.879 --> 00:09:18.080
<v Speaker 2>the Royal Film Commission almost nine hundred thousand dollars for

144
00:09:18.279 --> 00:09:25.039
<v Speaker 2>movies in Jordan. That's a Department of State expenditure. I mean,

145
00:09:25.080 --> 00:09:27.799
<v Speaker 2>it's just when you read it, you're like, no way,

146
00:09:27.840 --> 00:09:31.480
<v Speaker 2>there's this, This can't happen. How does someone get a

147
00:09:31.720 --> 00:09:45.200
<v Speaker 2>grant for this kind of crap? We spend twenty million.

148
00:09:45.200 --> 00:09:50.279
<v Speaker 2>You you went to work or driving in treacherous road

149
00:09:50.279 --> 00:09:52.240
<v Speaker 2>conditions a day to get to work so they can

150
00:09:52.279 --> 00:09:54.600
<v Speaker 2>take a chunk of your salary out to spend twenty

151
00:09:54.639 --> 00:09:59.519
<v Speaker 2>million dollars on Allan Simson, which is a new sesame

152
00:09:59.559 --> 00:10:11.840
<v Speaker 2>street in Iraq, Iraq. I mean, I laugh, It's just

153
00:10:12.200 --> 00:10:21.200
<v Speaker 2>it's the absurdity of this. National Science Foundations spend almost

154
00:10:21.480 --> 00:10:24.720
<v Speaker 2>three hundred thousand dollars to ensure bird watching groups have

155
00:10:25.600 --> 00:10:35.279
<v Speaker 2>safe spaces, i e. Affinity groups. I strongly encourage you

156
00:10:35.320 --> 00:10:36.919
<v Speaker 2>to get a copy of the report. I mean, Rand

157
00:10:36.919 --> 00:10:39.360
<v Speaker 2>Paul does it every single year, and these many years

158
00:10:39.360 --> 00:10:41.200
<v Speaker 2>as he's been doing it, has it changed or has

159
00:10:41.240 --> 00:10:47.399
<v Speaker 2>it gotten worse? I think it's gotten worse. And no,

160
00:10:47.559 --> 00:10:51.360
<v Speaker 2>this is not affiliated with one party or another, it's both.

161
00:10:54.759 --> 00:10:56.759
<v Speaker 2>This is what you get when you get you continuing

162
00:10:56.879 --> 00:11:01.399
<v Speaker 2>resolutions rather than doing appropriations bills. This is what you

163
00:11:01.440 --> 00:11:04.639
<v Speaker 2>get when you finish matters up at the eleventh hour,

164
00:11:04.759 --> 00:11:07.039
<v Speaker 2>so you can go back and celebrate whatever holiday you're

165
00:11:07.080 --> 00:11:10.440
<v Speaker 2>celebrating as an elected official, rather than get the job

166
00:11:10.519 --> 00:11:13.320
<v Speaker 2>done that you were hired to do via an election.

167
00:11:14.600 --> 00:11:17.039
<v Speaker 2>Which job you knew about when you took an oath

168
00:11:17.080 --> 00:11:20.200
<v Speaker 2>of office. Oh yeah, that's right. Look, job number one,

169
00:11:20.240 --> 00:11:22.919
<v Speaker 2>twelve appropriations bills. I got a full year to do it.

170
00:11:23.080 --> 00:11:24.919
<v Speaker 2>Now we're just going to shove it on to continued

171
00:11:24.960 --> 00:11:27.759
<v Speaker 2>resolution so we can continue to fund I don't know,

172
00:11:30.519 --> 00:11:41.120
<v Speaker 2>transgender ice skating events that's actually on here. The National

173
00:11:41.159 --> 00:11:45.559
<v Speaker 2>Endowment for the Arts awarded the Bearded Ladies Cabaret a

174
00:11:45.639 --> 00:11:49.799
<v Speaker 2>ten thousand dollars grant to support a cabaret show on

175
00:11:49.960 --> 00:12:00.399
<v Speaker 2>ice skates that's focused on climate change. Does that not

176
00:12:00.480 --> 00:12:03.080
<v Speaker 2>make your head hurt? And does that not make you angry? Oh,

177
00:12:03.159 --> 00:12:06.519
<v Speaker 2>it's only ten thousand dollars. Ten thousand dollars. They spill

178
00:12:06.600 --> 00:12:09.639
<v Speaker 2>more than that in five minutes. No, in five minutes,

179
00:12:09.720 --> 00:12:14.440
<v Speaker 2>they spill what's the number on that, four point five

180
00:12:14.440 --> 00:12:23.039
<v Speaker 2>million every minute? No, that attributed to these seventy four thousand,

181
00:12:23.080 --> 00:12:27.039
<v Speaker 2>four hundred and one thousand dollars every second, ten thousand

182
00:12:27.039 --> 00:12:31.279
<v Speaker 2>dollars of it went to bearded transvestites on ice singing

183
00:12:31.360 --> 00:12:40.200
<v Speaker 2>or dancing or skating while focusing on climate change. Man,

184
00:12:40.360 --> 00:12:43.639
<v Speaker 2>I'm telling you what and that's just the tip of

185
00:12:43.679 --> 00:12:46.679
<v Speaker 2>the batcrap and saying iceberg we're dealing with this morning

197
00:13:16.480 --> 00:13:17.799
<v Speaker 2>have you back, Thank you, sir.

198
00:13:19.360 --> 00:13:23.159
<v Speaker 5>I'm driving into work now. I live up in Union County, Indiana.

199
00:13:23.279 --> 00:13:27.200
<v Speaker 5>Now you were talking three to four inches and uh

200
00:13:27.480 --> 00:13:31.440
<v Speaker 5>on our roads up here, they don't plow them or

201
00:13:31.480 --> 00:13:33.799
<v Speaker 5>if they did. They blow back. They blew back over

202
00:13:34.519 --> 00:13:37.039
<v Speaker 5>on our road leading out to twenty seven, I went

203
00:13:37.039 --> 00:13:38.960
<v Speaker 5>through snow drifts three to four foot high.

204
00:13:39.120 --> 00:13:43.039
<v Speaker 2>Oh my god, what kind of gre are you in

205
00:13:43.080 --> 00:13:45.600
<v Speaker 2>a four wheel drive vehicle or something like a jeep?

206
00:13:45.679 --> 00:13:48.279
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, I'm in a I'm in a little four granger

207
00:13:48.360 --> 00:13:52.519
<v Speaker 6>with four wheel drive. Okay, Yeah, it's it's uh, it's

208
00:13:52.559 --> 00:13:54.399
<v Speaker 6>I mean, if you have front wheel drive or two

209
00:13:54.399 --> 00:13:57.799
<v Speaker 6>wheel drive this morning twenty seven down through Oxford, it

210
00:13:57.879 --> 00:14:00.159
<v Speaker 6>maybe the roads or snow covered, they're plowing them, but

211
00:14:00.879 --> 00:14:05.399
<v Speaker 6>where the wind is and drifting, that's that's the issue right.

212
00:14:05.399 --> 00:14:09.799
<v Speaker 5>Now, at least up in Indiana northern Ohio there. But

213
00:14:09.799 --> 00:14:12.080
<v Speaker 5>but yeah, it's uh, I mean, the roads are covered,

214
00:14:12.120 --> 00:14:15.360
<v Speaker 5>but if you have the right kind of tires. And

215
00:14:16.279 --> 00:14:18.120
<v Speaker 5>I've done a lot of driving in this kind of weather,

216
00:14:18.159 --> 00:14:21.080
<v Speaker 5>so it doesn't really bother me. But one of the

217
00:14:21.159 --> 00:14:23.480
<v Speaker 5>things I wanted to bring up, and everything you're saying

218
00:14:23.519 --> 00:14:28.559
<v Speaker 5>about the government and what they spend. I'm not gonna

219
00:14:28.559 --> 00:14:30.879
<v Speaker 5>waste any time repeating what you've already said, but you're

220
00:14:30.919 --> 00:14:36.000
<v Speaker 5>one hundred percent correct that does need to be changed,

221
00:14:36.039 --> 00:14:40.720
<v Speaker 5>and uh that that stuff has got to stop. One

222
00:14:40.799 --> 00:14:43.240
<v Speaker 5>I called for it is bugged me all weekend. I

223
00:14:43.279 --> 00:14:46.120
<v Speaker 5>had heard something about ESPN had cut the feed on

224
00:14:46.200 --> 00:14:51.320
<v Speaker 5>the Sugar Bowl when they were doing the national anthem

225
00:14:51.399 --> 00:14:55.559
<v Speaker 5>and a moment of silence for the victims in New Orleans. Yeah,

226
00:14:56.039 --> 00:14:58.919
<v Speaker 5>then when we sat down to watch the Bengals game,

227
00:14:59.200 --> 00:15:01.279
<v Speaker 5>as soon as they amnnounced what they were getting ready

228
00:15:01.320 --> 00:15:07.360
<v Speaker 5>to do the TV pros and so my wife texted

229
00:15:07.360 --> 00:15:09.720
<v Speaker 5>one of our friends and said, hey, did your TV

230
00:15:10.279 --> 00:15:14.600
<v Speaker 5>you know, did your programming stop? And he said, yeah,

231
00:15:14.879 --> 00:15:18.639
<v Speaker 5>it's frozen. And as soon as the girl was finishing

232
00:15:18.720 --> 00:15:21.879
<v Speaker 5>up the national anthem, it came back on. So ESPN

233
00:15:22.039 --> 00:15:25.480
<v Speaker 5>was part of that broadcast and did it again. And

234
00:15:25.919 --> 00:15:28.559
<v Speaker 5>I'll tell you, I don't know what their problem is,

235
00:15:28.600 --> 00:15:32.279
<v Speaker 5>but I've never liked ESPN from the day they were invented.

236
00:15:32.639 --> 00:15:37.399
<v Speaker 5>I don't know, just never really like the station. But

237
00:15:37.960 --> 00:15:42.120
<v Speaker 5>I will never turn on ESPN again because I know

238
00:15:42.240 --> 00:15:45.159
<v Speaker 5>some radio talk show hosts were talking about it late

239
00:15:45.240 --> 00:15:49.840
<v Speaker 5>last week and maybe Saturday morning. But yeah, if you

240
00:15:50.279 --> 00:15:53.159
<v Speaker 5>look into that, or has somebody look into that, you'll

241
00:15:53.200 --> 00:15:55.960
<v Speaker 5>see that they did that again during the Bengals game.

242
00:15:56.320 --> 00:15:58.759
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, and I did watch the game. I don't recall

243
00:15:58.840 --> 00:16:01.480
<v Speaker 2>that happening though I can't say that I had my

244
00:16:01.519 --> 00:16:03.720
<v Speaker 2>eyes glued to the screen from the very beginning of

245
00:16:03.720 --> 00:16:06.840
<v Speaker 2>the game to the end. But I did hear a

246
00:16:06.879 --> 00:16:09.879
<v Speaker 2>lot because it was widely reported about ESPN cutting away

247
00:16:09.879 --> 00:16:12.120
<v Speaker 2>from the national anthem and the moment of silence for

248
00:16:12.159 --> 00:16:15.240
<v Speaker 2>the New Orleans folks don't understand why they would do that,

249
00:16:15.399 --> 00:16:19.080
<v Speaker 2>It really don't. I don't know whose interest they think

250
00:16:19.080 --> 00:16:22.000
<v Speaker 2>they're serving, you know. It's it's like, for example, if

251
00:16:22.000 --> 00:16:24.639
<v Speaker 2>a corporation takes a political stand, you sort of scratch

252
00:16:24.639 --> 00:16:27.399
<v Speaker 2>your head and you wait, wait a second, why. I mean,

253
00:16:27.639 --> 00:16:31.879
<v Speaker 2>you have customers across the political spectrum. Doesn't seem to

254
00:16:31.960 --> 00:16:33.879
<v Speaker 2>me and be in your best interest to take a,

255
00:16:34.080 --> 00:16:37.399
<v Speaker 2>you know, an out loud political stand, regardless of which

256
00:16:37.440 --> 00:16:40.600
<v Speaker 2>side of the ledger you happen to be on. So unless,

257
00:16:40.600 --> 00:16:44.159
<v Speaker 2>of course, you just want to serve a particular political

258
00:16:44.360 --> 00:16:48.159
<v Speaker 2>biased audience. But sports sports doesn't have a political stripe,

259
00:16:48.200 --> 00:16:51.240
<v Speaker 2>does it? Mark at least it shouldn't. I mean, of

260
00:16:51.279 --> 00:16:54.559
<v Speaker 2>all the organizations, ESPN should be least likely to take

261
00:16:54.559 --> 00:16:56.399
<v Speaker 2>a political stand about anything like that.

262
00:16:57.080 --> 00:16:59.879
<v Speaker 5>So and well, I'll tell you when Colin. When Colin

263
00:17:00.039 --> 00:17:02.799
<v Speaker 5>Kaepernick did what he did, I stopped watching the NFL

264
00:17:02.840 --> 00:17:04.559
<v Speaker 5>for probably five to seven years.

265
00:17:04.759 --> 00:17:05.039
<v Speaker 2>Wow.

266
00:17:05.200 --> 00:17:07.559
<v Speaker 5>And that's no joke. I would not turn it on

267
00:17:07.759 --> 00:17:11.400
<v Speaker 5>for nothing. And I just recently started watching it again.

268
00:17:11.480 --> 00:17:14.480
<v Speaker 5>But if the NFL goes down that path again, and

269
00:17:14.519 --> 00:17:16.799
<v Speaker 5>believe me, some of their little messaging and the crap

270
00:17:16.920 --> 00:17:20.839
<v Speaker 5>that they want to sit there and promote that, you know,

271
00:17:22.160 --> 00:17:26.519
<v Speaker 5>just I forget the violence and the one love and

272
00:17:26.559 --> 00:17:29.440
<v Speaker 5>all this crap. You know, I don't even want to

273
00:17:29.480 --> 00:17:32.359
<v Speaker 5>see any of that. And so if they go down

274
00:17:32.400 --> 00:17:35.119
<v Speaker 5>that road again, I have no problem turning it off.

275
00:17:35.160 --> 00:17:38.519
<v Speaker 5>But I did not watch NFL, like I said, it

276
00:17:38.599 --> 00:17:40.920
<v Speaker 5>had to be at least seven years.

277
00:17:41.599 --> 00:17:43.559
<v Speaker 2>My wife my boat.

278
00:17:43.599 --> 00:17:46.279
<v Speaker 5>Actually and understand.

279
00:17:47.279 --> 00:17:48.240
<v Speaker 2>I understand that.

280
00:17:48.599 --> 00:17:52.400
<v Speaker 5>Ain't It's not imperative in my life that I have

281
00:17:52.519 --> 00:17:53.039
<v Speaker 5>to watch it.

282
00:17:53.240 --> 00:17:55.039
<v Speaker 2>I get it all day long. And that's one of

283
00:17:55.039 --> 00:17:57.559
<v Speaker 2>the reasons I get really really angry about your dollars,

284
00:17:57.599 --> 00:18:01.599
<v Speaker 2>my dollars, or anybody's taxpayer dollars being used to build giant, epic,

285
00:18:01.720 --> 00:18:06.440
<v Speaker 2>multi billion dollars stadiums for individuals who own the football

286
00:18:06.440 --> 00:18:10.359
<v Speaker 2>teams who probably could well afford to do it themselves. Anyhow,

287
00:18:10.359 --> 00:18:12.920
<v Speaker 2>Thanks for the call, Mark, I appreciate it. Yeah, do

288
00:18:12.960 --> 00:18:15.559
<v Speaker 2>you really need it? In your life, Phil, Hang on, buddy,

289
00:18:15.720 --> 00:18:17.279
<v Speaker 2>i'mount a time in this segment, but I'd love to

290
00:18:17.319 --> 00:18:19.319
<v Speaker 2>hear what you have to say. I got local stories

291
00:18:19.359 --> 00:18:21.160
<v Speaker 2>as well. But Phil, fe don't mind holding for a moment,

292
00:18:21.319 --> 00:18:25.279
<v Speaker 2>take quick break, be right back. This is what's happening.

293
00:18:25.319 --> 00:18:27.519
<v Speaker 4>This was an act of terrorists.

294
00:18:27.599 --> 00:18:30.960
<v Speaker 7>Stay current, they will not much as attacker the attackers.

295
00:18:32.359 --> 00:18:34.240
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, don't go out on the roads. There's your nine

296
00:18:34.279 --> 00:18:38.559
<v Speaker 2>warning forecast anyway. Winter storm morning in effect on midnight today.

297
00:18:38.720 --> 00:18:41.319
<v Speaker 2>We got snow continuing until the afternoon, one to five

298

<v Speaker 5>And the thing, I'm uh.

00:19:32.160 --> 00:19:34.759
<v Speaker 8>can go back twenty years whatever.

314
00:19:35.599 --> 00:19:40.079
<v Speaker 5>They all like, this is winter time and they.

315
00:19:42.160 --> 00:19:45.920
<v Speaker 8>And the roads man here, they ain't PLoud them, they

316
00:19:45.920 --> 00:19:48.519
<v Speaker 8>won't do nothing. I live on mary Ingram Highway. I'm

317
00:19:48.599 --> 00:19:52.599
<v Speaker 8>up here on twenty seven too. They they knew this

318
00:19:52.839 --> 00:19:58.599
<v Speaker 8>was coming. They haven't touched anything. And I don't understand.

319
00:19:58.640 --> 00:20:02.279
<v Speaker 8>I mean, he you pay for it. I mean I

320
00:20:02.319 --> 00:20:05.039
<v Speaker 8>can get on one of them dag on things and drive.

321
00:20:04.880 --> 00:20:05.880
<v Speaker 5>It and clear the road.

322
00:20:06.039 --> 00:20:09.519
<v Speaker 8>I mean they're going up and down the road here, Ryan,

323
00:20:09.960 --> 00:20:11.880
<v Speaker 8>what their their plow up?

324
00:20:13.279 --> 00:20:16.039
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I passed one of those on the way into

325
00:20:16.039 --> 00:20:18.039
<v Speaker 2>work this morning, the plow up. And I you know,

326
00:20:18.680 --> 00:20:20.640
<v Speaker 2>just because the vehicle's got a plow on, it doesn't

327
00:20:20.640 --> 00:20:22.960
<v Speaker 2>mean it's a municipal vehicle. Just because the vehicle is

328
00:20:22.960 --> 00:20:24.799
<v Speaker 2>a plow on, even it's a municipal vehicle, doesn't mean

329
00:20:24.799 --> 00:20:27.359
<v Speaker 2>it's a sign to that particular road. It's like the

330
00:20:27.400 --> 00:20:30.160
<v Speaker 2>peace of God, my brother. I don't have any idea

331
00:20:30.200 --> 00:20:33.880
<v Speaker 2>how they allocate plow responsibilities. What I do know that

332
00:20:34.200 --> 00:20:36.480
<v Speaker 2>is is just and I'll give them credit. Because the

333
00:20:36.559 --> 00:20:39.920
<v Speaker 2>road I came down, Montgomery Road, it had obviously been

334
00:20:40.000 --> 00:20:43.480
<v Speaker 2>plowed at some point, but with the snow continuing to fall,

335
00:20:43.839 --> 00:20:46.319
<v Speaker 2>and it's coming down pretty good, you're gonna get additional

336
00:20:46.319 --> 00:20:48.799
<v Speaker 2>a few inches of accumulation virtually no time. So that's

337
00:20:48.799 --> 00:20:51.240
<v Speaker 2>what I was experiencing. I was experiencing the three to

338
00:20:51.319 --> 00:20:55.160
<v Speaker 2>four inches of snow that had come down after they

339
00:20:55.200 --> 00:20:59.599
<v Speaker 2>sent the plow on Montgomery Road. So you know, I

340
00:21:00.039 --> 00:21:01.920
<v Speaker 2>and Phil, we all just got a roll with it, right,

341
00:21:02.000 --> 00:21:04.160
<v Speaker 2>And I feel sorry for people have to go. You

342
00:21:04.559 --> 00:21:05.680
<v Speaker 2>have to get out and go to work.

343
00:21:06.000 --> 00:21:12.039
<v Speaker 8>Get summertime again. Everybody's wine and man, Brian, everybody's wine

344
00:21:12.200 --> 00:21:14.119
<v Speaker 8>and in wine? Am I get real?

345
00:21:14.319 --> 00:21:14.920
<v Speaker 5>Wake up?

346
00:21:15.799 --> 00:21:20.759
<v Speaker 8>This is what is called Ohio, Kentucky. This happens every year.

347
00:21:21.319 --> 00:21:26.039
<v Speaker 9>Yeah, well, and today it's actually, you know it's well today,

348
00:21:26.079 --> 00:21:30.680
<v Speaker 9>at least today we can say without hesitation that they

349
00:21:30.839 --> 00:21:36.039
<v Speaker 9>appropriately called school off because the roads are in fact treacherous.

350
00:21:36.440 --> 00:21:38.200
<v Speaker 9>You know, last time they called school off, it was

351
00:21:38.240 --> 00:21:41.519
<v Speaker 9>because it was twenty five degrees out, Like, wait a second,

352
00:21:41.599 --> 00:21:44.359
<v Speaker 9>you called school off because it's cold out. Going back

353
00:21:44.400 --> 00:21:46.759
<v Speaker 9>to your point, Phil, it's winter time in the greater

354
00:21:46.839 --> 00:21:52.680
<v Speaker 9>Cincinnati area. Guess what, It's gonna be cold at some point, Lord.

355
00:21:53.240 --> 00:21:56.079
<v Speaker 5>Grade school. I was in grade school.

356
00:21:56.359 --> 00:21:59.839
<v Speaker 8>I locked up the heel both ways up hell in

357
00:22:00.119 --> 00:22:04.720
<v Speaker 8>snow up to my knees. Now, moll the little whimps.

358
00:22:04.720 --> 00:22:07.680
<v Speaker 8>They making little whims out of our little kids.

359
00:22:07.720 --> 00:22:12.759
<v Speaker 2>Man, Oh yeah, well that's certainly certainly true. Well wait

360
00:22:12.799 --> 00:22:15.079
<v Speaker 2>till the power goes off. I'll get to the article later.

361
00:22:15.200 --> 00:22:17.599
<v Speaker 2>But it sounds to me like we've got really really,

362
00:22:17.640 --> 00:22:22.000
<v Speaker 2>really really treacherous and concerning news about the Chinese Communist

363
00:22:22.039 --> 00:22:26.279
<v Speaker 2>Party and their ability to completely shut down our ports

364
00:22:26.319 --> 00:22:28.000
<v Speaker 2>and our power grid. I'll get to that in a

365
00:22:28.039 --> 00:22:31.079
<v Speaker 2>six o'clock hour. So maybe we have to deal with

366
00:22:31.119 --> 00:22:34.519
<v Speaker 2>life without electricity. Anyhow, Hang in there, Phil, be careful

367
00:22:34.559 --> 00:22:37.759
<v Speaker 2>out there, and if you know, if I'm used, I

368
00:22:37.799 --> 00:22:40.440
<v Speaker 2>don't mind driving in the snow. I mean it can

369
00:22:40.480 --> 00:22:42.599
<v Speaker 2>be manageable. You just have to know what you're doing.

370
00:22:42.680 --> 00:22:46.160
<v Speaker 2>If you're a decent, good driver, you're accomplished and you understand,

371
00:22:46.480 --> 00:22:49.759
<v Speaker 2>then it is possible to get out there. I just

372
00:22:49.799 --> 00:22:52.480
<v Speaker 2>don't recommend it if you can avoid it, and it

373
00:22:52.640 --> 00:22:55.440
<v Speaker 2>helps to have a vehicle with four wheel or all

374
00:22:55.440 --> 00:22:58.480
<v Speaker 2>wheel drive, and there's no question about it. And as

375
00:22:58.519 --> 00:23:00.480
<v Speaker 2>I pointed out when I opened the show this, I'm

376
00:23:00.519 --> 00:23:02.000
<v Speaker 2>not quite sure I would be able to make it

377
00:23:02.279 --> 00:23:04.960
<v Speaker 2>navigating the roads I had to drive down if I

378
00:23:05.000 --> 00:23:08.079
<v Speaker 2>had to drive my car rear wheel drive. So fortunately

379
00:23:08.079 --> 00:23:10.519
<v Speaker 2>my wife has an all wheel drive car. Anyhow, hang

380
00:23:10.559 --> 00:23:12.680
<v Speaker 2>in there and be real careful. Five point three seven

381

00:23:32.000 --> 00:23:34.960
<v Speaker 2>to local story. Special prosecutor found that allegations made my

389
00:23:35.079 --> 00:23:39.279
<v Speaker 2>Democratic Ohio Representative Cecil Thomas before the November election against

390
00:23:39.319 --> 00:23:44.920
<v Speaker 2>Hamilton County prosecuting Melissa Powers were entirely quote baseless, close

391
00:23:45.000 --> 00:23:47.119
<v Speaker 2>quote shocking.

392
00:23:47.160 --> 00:23:47.240
<v Speaker 10>No.

393
00:23:47.319 --> 00:23:50.000
<v Speaker 2>One thirteen page report filed late Monday by Klemon County

394
00:23:50.000 --> 00:23:52.079
<v Speaker 2>Prosecutor Mark to Culvey who was appointed last month a

395
00:23:52.119 --> 00:23:55.319
<v Speaker 2>special prosecutor. He found that Thomas has sworn Avid David

396
00:23:55.720 --> 00:23:59.039
<v Speaker 2>in support of his claims quote was filed in bad

397
00:23:59.160 --> 00:24:04.440
<v Speaker 2>faith closse quote vote. In a statement from Powers said

398
00:24:04.440 --> 00:24:08.039
<v Speaker 2>it was shameful that these allegations were taken seriously by

399
00:24:08.119 --> 00:24:11.559
<v Speaker 2>anyone from the start, saying this was nothing more than

400
00:24:11.599 --> 00:24:14.440
<v Speaker 2>a politically motivated hit designed to influence the outcome of

401
00:24:14.440 --> 00:24:17.039
<v Speaker 2>Novembers election, and it has been dismissed correctly for the

402
00:24:17.200 --> 00:24:21.400
<v Speaker 2>sham that it is. Thomas's allegations filed November fourth, four

403
00:24:21.480 --> 00:24:25.240
<v Speaker 2>days before the election, Powers ended up losing to Connie

404
00:24:25.279 --> 00:24:30.200
<v Speaker 2>Pillage thanks a lot Hamilton County voters, first Democrat the

405
00:24:30.240 --> 00:24:33.319
<v Speaker 2>whole prosecutor's office in nearly a century. She won fifty

406
00:24:33.359 --> 00:24:38.880
<v Speaker 2>one point three to forty eight point seven. Notably, until recently,

407
00:24:39.480 --> 00:24:42.960
<v Speaker 2>wasn't even licensed to practice law in the state of Ohio.

408
00:24:44.920 --> 00:24:47.279
<v Speaker 2>We lost a good one most of Powers losing that election.

409
00:24:49.319 --> 00:24:52.240
<v Speaker 2>Powers also said she's evaluating legal options in her words,

410
00:24:52.240 --> 00:24:57.359
<v Speaker 2>to remedy the damage this act has caused. Thomas alleged

411
00:24:57.480 --> 00:24:59.920
<v Speaker 2>that Power, as a former juvenile court judge back day

412
00:25:00.200 --> 00:25:03.039
<v Speaker 2>a court entry in a case in twenty twenty one.

413
00:25:03.200 --> 00:25:06.440
<v Speaker 2>Powers said she simply had corrected a clerical error in

414
00:25:06.519 --> 00:25:08.759
<v Speaker 2>order to preserve juvenile's right to appeal one of her

415
00:25:08.799 --> 00:25:12.279
<v Speaker 2>decisions to call. His investigation found that Heaven Kind of

416
00:25:12.319 --> 00:25:16.039
<v Speaker 2>Juvenile Courts computer system does not allow users to backdate entries.

417
00:25:16.119 --> 00:25:19.039
<v Speaker 2>If Powers had wanted information on the doc had change,

418
00:25:19.279 --> 00:25:21.880
<v Speaker 2>you have had to first request it in writing. There

419
00:25:21.920 --> 00:25:24.880
<v Speaker 2>was no such request in the case, according to the

420
00:25:25.000 --> 00:25:34.839
<v Speaker 2>now closed report. Assistant City Manager and Tasha Hampton came

421
00:25:34.880 --> 00:25:37.240
<v Speaker 2>to the job amid questions about her past job performance.

422
00:25:37.319 --> 00:25:42.400
<v Speaker 2>She resigned This story from December thirty First, we're dealing

423
00:25:42.440 --> 00:25:46.160
<v Speaker 2>with some older news here, said she Announcement Department on

<v Speaker 2>social media site linked In, submitted a resignation to city

425
00:25:49.440 --> 00:25:51.680
<v Speaker 2>manager share a long quote, I have decided to pursue

426
00:25:51.720 --> 00:25:54.319
<v Speaker 2>new professional opportunities in align with my long term career

427
00:25:54.359 --> 00:25:58.359
<v Speaker 2>goals and personal aspirations. Well, in an unrelated article, we

428
00:25:58.440 --> 00:26:01.240
<v Speaker 2>have a list of the highest pay jobs in Hamilton County.

429
00:26:01.240 --> 00:26:04.119
<v Speaker 2>Maybe she's going to be pursuing an assistant County Corners job,

430
00:26:04.200 --> 00:26:07.359
<v Speaker 2>which we find out that the County Corners assistant the

431
00:26:07.480 --> 00:26:12.000
<v Speaker 2>deputy Corners the top one, two, three, four, five, six,

432
00:26:12.119 --> 00:26:16.039
<v Speaker 2>The top six highest paid Hamilton County salaries for countar

433
00:26:16.079 --> 00:26:20.839
<v Speaker 2>year twenty twenty four all our deputy corners. Interestingly enough,

434
00:26:20.839 --> 00:26:25.000
<v Speaker 2>the actual corner makes about half what the deputy corners make.

435
00:26:25.039 --> 00:26:29.000
<v Speaker 2>You figure that one out. Doctor Leuximi Somarco makes one

436
00:26:29.039 --> 00:26:32.240
<v Speaker 2>hundred and fifty three nine and eighty four dollars a year.

437
00:26:33.160 --> 00:26:36.440
<v Speaker 2>Deputy corners make between two hundred and forty one and

438
00:26:36.519 --> 00:26:41.559
<v Speaker 2>two hundred and eighty thousand dollars a year. Does that

439
00:26:41.640 --> 00:26:44.359
<v Speaker 2>sound right? Five thirty five coming to five thirty six

440
00:26:44.359 --> 00:26:46.640
<v Speaker 2>to fifty five KCD talk stations stick around plenty to

441
00:26:46.640 --> 00:26:48.759
<v Speaker 2>talk about. Oh look, stack is stupid and a pretty

442
00:26:48.759 --> 00:26:53.559
<v Speaker 2>sizeable one at that. I'll be right back, run a business.

443
00:26:54.000 --> 00:26:54.319
<v Speaker 6>Okay.

444
00:26:54.400 --> 00:26:57.079
<v Speaker 2>Winter storm warning in effect till midnight. What they're saying

445
00:26:57.200 --> 00:27:00.559
<v Speaker 2>is in another one to five inches more snow. Snow

446

<v Speaker 10>I'm miss both you and Joe. You guys are a

479
00:28:38.119 --> 00:28:38.680
<v Speaker 10>great team.

480
00:28:38.920 --> 00:28:39.599
<v Speaker 2>I appreciate it.

481
00:28:40.599 --> 00:28:46.400
<v Speaker 10>Yes, sir, well, it's well deserved. On your case, I'll

482
00:28:46.519 --> 00:28:49.279
<v Speaker 10>just talk a little bit about the snow of being

483
00:28:49.319 --> 00:28:55.160
<v Speaker 10>from New Hampshire living up here for the last fifteen years.

484
00:28:55.519 --> 00:28:59.200
<v Speaker 10>You know, uh, they do a really good job clearing

485
00:28:59.319 --> 00:29:03.039
<v Speaker 10>theadways up here. The only time you'll really get any

486
00:29:03.160 --> 00:29:07.160
<v Speaker 10>clog is if you're getting more than two or three

487
00:29:07.200 --> 00:29:11.400
<v Speaker 10>inches an hour. You know, you get three inches. They

488
00:29:11.440 --> 00:29:16.519
<v Speaker 10>do something called gang gang club. They do gang plowing

489
00:29:16.599 --> 00:29:18.599
<v Speaker 10>up here, which.

490
00:29:20.240 --> 00:29:25.319
<v Speaker 2>That phrasing again, sorry man, roll with Strucker's o.

491
00:29:26.319 --> 00:29:30.799
<v Speaker 10>I'm with it. But it's it's very common to see

492
00:29:31.440 --> 00:29:35.599
<v Speaker 10>four and five trucks plowing the snow all together, and

493
00:29:35.640 --> 00:29:38.799
<v Speaker 10>you'll see several gangs. And on the secondary you know,

494
00:29:38.880 --> 00:29:43.160
<v Speaker 10>for the main highways and Class A roads and then

495
00:29:43.240 --> 00:29:46.960
<v Speaker 10>for the secondary roads still contract out to small contractors

496
00:29:47.000 --> 00:29:49.599
<v Speaker 10>only for the day at snow's and they'll be doing

497
00:29:49.640 --> 00:29:54.079
<v Speaker 10>the side streets and salting and it is it's just

498
00:29:54.279 --> 00:29:58.920
<v Speaker 10>like they do like uh, the runways on uh you

499
00:29:58.920 --> 00:30:02.319
<v Speaker 10>know at airport you see five of them and make

500
00:30:02.359 --> 00:30:05.000
<v Speaker 10>cleaning off the roads. I mean, look at the split

501
00:30:05.680 --> 00:30:08.079
<v Speaker 10>and they've got it down to a science up here

502
00:30:08.160 --> 00:30:10.359
<v Speaker 10>to where you guys just don't get that kind of snow.

503
00:30:10.480 --> 00:30:13.400
<v Speaker 2>See there, that's the nail on the head right there.

504
00:30:13.440 --> 00:30:16.039
<v Speaker 2>We hardly I mean we get snow, of course, but

505
00:30:16.359 --> 00:30:18.640
<v Speaker 2>you know, the number of days we get really serious

506
00:30:18.680 --> 00:30:20.960
<v Speaker 2>snow like this are few and far between. So to

507
00:30:21.039 --> 00:30:23.880
<v Speaker 2>have you know, all of the equipment that would require

508
00:30:23.920 --> 00:30:27.160
<v Speaker 2>that so called gang plowing, and all the resources and

509
00:30:27.160 --> 00:30:30.599
<v Speaker 2>and and you know, and humanity responsible for operating everything,

510
00:30:30.640 --> 00:30:33.000
<v Speaker 2>I mean, that's that's a I mean, for a state

511
00:30:33.119 --> 00:30:34.640
<v Speaker 2>like New Hampshire, you get a lot of snow all

512
00:30:34.680 --> 00:30:37.039
<v Speaker 2>the time. I can see certainly the justification for the

513
00:30:37.079 --> 00:30:39.880
<v Speaker 2>taxpayer dollars. But if it only happens like once or

514
00:30:39.920 --> 00:30:44.200
<v Speaker 2>twice a winter season, obviously you're not going to have

515
00:30:44.240 --> 00:30:46.440
<v Speaker 2>as well oiled a machine. And that's I think what

516
00:30:46.480 --> 00:30:49.200
<v Speaker 2>we're facing right here this morning. Uh, and we and

517
00:30:49.319 --> 00:30:51.039
<v Speaker 2>keeping up with the snow as you point out, man.

518
00:30:51.039 --> 00:30:52.480
<v Speaker 2>I mean it's still coming down. We're going to get

519
00:30:52.480 --> 00:30:54.680
<v Speaker 2>one to five additional inches today on top of what

520
00:30:54.720 --> 00:30:58.640
<v Speaker 2>they've already plowed over. So I just you know, they

521
00:30:58.640 --> 00:31:00.640
<v Speaker 2>get overwhelmed. I think that's where we are right now.

522
00:31:00.640 --> 00:31:02.759
<v Speaker 2>I'm not going to go pointing fingers or casting blame

523
00:31:02.799 --> 00:31:06.119
<v Speaker 2>on anyone, but uh what what more can you do

524
00:31:06.160 --> 00:31:08.480
<v Speaker 2>except just roll with it? Right? So you got a

525
00:31:08.480 --> 00:31:10.039
<v Speaker 2>lot of snow in New Hampshire, Gary.

526
00:31:10.799 --> 00:31:11.400
<v Speaker 5>Oh boy.

527
00:31:11.720 --> 00:31:13.799
<v Speaker 10>The first year we moved up here, me and my

528
00:31:13.839 --> 00:31:17.599
<v Speaker 10>wife is after I retired from the military in twenty thirteen.

529
00:31:18.160 --> 00:31:23.119
<v Speaker 10>We bought a three hundred year old house and it

530
00:31:23.160 --> 00:31:25.480
<v Speaker 10>has the original roof, so there was a little bit

531
00:31:25.519 --> 00:31:28.759
<v Speaker 10>of concern with that that I went out and you know,

532
00:31:28.839 --> 00:31:32.519
<v Speaker 10>we got fourteen inches and I cleared the you know,

533
00:31:32.559 --> 00:31:35.200
<v Speaker 10>we got the snow blower and the equipment, and I

534
00:31:35.240 --> 00:31:38.319
<v Speaker 10>cleared off all the you know, the driveway, the sidewalk

535
00:31:38.319 --> 00:31:40.640
<v Speaker 10>and everything, and then I thought I was done. I

536
00:31:40.680 --> 00:31:43.480
<v Speaker 10>was heading my way into the house and then we

537
00:31:43.519 --> 00:31:49.720
<v Speaker 10>got another sixteen inches of snow. I literally got a

538
00:31:49.759 --> 00:31:53.759
<v Speaker 10>little panic because that's a lot of weight on the roof. Yeah,

539
00:31:53.960 --> 00:31:56.240
<v Speaker 10>and you know, we actually.

540
00:31:56.440 --> 00:31:57.920
<v Speaker 2>You live in New Hampshire. You bought a couple of

541
00:31:58.000 --> 00:32:00.200
<v Speaker 2>hundred year old house that has been in New Hampture

542
00:32:00.240 --> 00:32:02.480
<v Speaker 2>for that many hundreds of years, and the roof has

543
00:32:02.559 --> 00:32:06.240
<v Speaker 2>held up after years and years and years and years

544
00:32:06.240 --> 00:32:08.920
<v Speaker 2>of that kind of snowfall. I think you're probably pretty

545
00:32:08.920 --> 00:32:11.000
<v Speaker 2>good shape. It's withstood the test of time.

546
00:32:12.319 --> 00:32:16.160
<v Speaker 10>I literally got a picture of me because all the

547
00:32:16.200 --> 00:32:19.759
<v Speaker 10>snow comes off the roof and the snow is higher

548
00:32:19.799 --> 00:32:25.519
<v Speaker 10>than the roof. I was like, you know, I'm a young,

549
00:32:26.119 --> 00:32:26.720
<v Speaker 10>strong guy.

550
00:32:27.160 --> 00:32:29.759
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, well I'll tell you what. I'm gonna look outside

551
00:32:29.759 --> 00:32:34.599
<v Speaker 2>now and go, man, no big deal. Yeah, I'm sure Gary.

552

00:34:48.159 --> 00:34:50.920
<v Speaker 11>two sixty three. It is not a good day for travel.

596
00:34:51.159 --> 00:34:53.800
<v Speaker 11>If you can stay at home, do that. If you

597
00:34:53.920 --> 00:34:55.960
<v Speaker 11>have to go out, you're going to need plenty of

598
00:34:56.000 --> 00:34:58.719
<v Speaker 11>extra time. Right now, Cruis are working with an acient

599
00:34:58.760 --> 00:35:01.559
<v Speaker 11>in northbound seventy five in the cut. The right two

602
00:35:09.519 --> 00:35:12.360

603
00:35:12.440 --> 00:35:14.360
<v Speaker 2>just don't go outside if you can avoid it. That

604
00:35:14.519 --> 00:35:19.800
<v Speaker 2>sound advice to Chuck Ingram there. Seriously, there's no reason

605
00:35:19.920 --> 00:35:22.400
<v Speaker 2>to go out if you don't absolutely have to go

606
00:35:22.599 --> 00:35:26.920
<v Speaker 2>out to stay the heck off the roads. So even

607
00:35:26.920 --> 00:35:28.920
<v Speaker 2>if you have a four wheel drive vehicle and are

608
00:35:28.920 --> 00:35:31.000
<v Speaker 2>capable of driving in, if you don't have to go out,

609
00:35:31.000 --> 00:35:33.519
<v Speaker 2>don't add to the potential problems. Over to the stack

619
00:36:05.920 --> 00:36:10.000
<v Speaker 2>victim with multiple stab wounds. After the investigation, they revealed

620
00:36:10.000 --> 00:36:13.199
<v Speaker 2>that Alvello attacked the woman shortly after she delivered the pizza.

621
00:36:13.360 --> 00:36:17.000
<v Speaker 2>Quote became upset about the tip that she had received.

622
00:36:17.039 --> 00:36:18.880
<v Speaker 2>Close quote that's the cord of the report from the

623
00:36:18.880 --> 00:36:22.480
<v Speaker 2>Sheriff's office, what the hell. She returned to the victim's

624
00:36:22.480 --> 00:36:25.960
<v Speaker 2>motel room armed with a knife, accompanied by an unknown

625
00:36:25.960 --> 00:36:30.199
<v Speaker 2>male suspect who was packing a firearm. They forced their

626

<v Speaker 2>way in a motel room and began attacking the victim

627
00:36:32.440 --> 00:36:34.880
<v Speaker 2>corner of the sheriff's department. The victims stabbed multiple times

628
00:36:34.920 --> 00:36:37.800
<v Speaker 2>and some items were also taken from the room. Victim

629
00:36:37.800 --> 00:36:40.519
<v Speaker 2>taken to local hospital, currently in stable condition at least

630
00:36:40.559 --> 00:36:43.280
<v Speaker 2>as of the reporting on this one. Originally, the victim,

631
00:36:43.360 --> 00:36:45.480
<v Speaker 2>along with a boyfriend and her five year old daughter,

632
00:36:45.519 --> 00:36:48.320
<v Speaker 2>were at the motel saying there celebrating a birthday. Corner

633
00:36:48.320 --> 00:36:52.559
<v Speaker 2>to the court documents, when Alvella delivered the pizza cost

634
00:36:52.760 --> 00:36:55.760
<v Speaker 2>thirty three dollars, the victim gave a fifty dollars bill

635
00:36:55.800 --> 00:37:00.440
<v Speaker 2>and asked for change. Court document said Alvello told victim

636
00:37:00.480 --> 00:37:02.559
<v Speaker 2>that she did not have changed, so the victim searched

637
00:37:02.559 --> 00:37:06.039
<v Speaker 2>her wallet for smaller bills. The victim then allegedly gave

638
00:37:06.079 --> 00:37:11.199
<v Speaker 2>Alvello a two dollars tipped, prompting Alvella to roll her

639
00:37:11.199 --> 00:37:13.880
<v Speaker 2>eyes and walk away. Then she returned later with the man,

640
00:37:14.000 --> 00:37:16.840
<v Speaker 2>both wearing face masks, forcing themselves into the room again

641
00:37:16.880 --> 00:37:20.840
<v Speaker 2>with a gun too, told the victim's boyfriend to go

642
00:37:20.880 --> 00:37:23.400
<v Speaker 2>into the bathroom before they rummaged through the victim's belongings.

643
00:37:23.400 --> 00:37:25.800
<v Speaker 2>So victim tried to shield her daughter from the suspects

644
00:37:25.800 --> 00:37:31.400
<v Speaker 2>when Alvello allegedly stabbed her. She was stabbed fourteen times,

<v Speaker 2>the hard Rock Cafe our Rock Casino is open. So

743
00:43:27.599 --> 00:43:30.159
<v Speaker 2>and you know, doubling down on what Chuck Ingram said.

744
00:43:30.199 --> 00:43:33.719
<v Speaker 2>If you don't have to get out today, don't. It

745
00:43:33.800 --> 00:43:36.079
<v Speaker 2>is not worth your time. The roads are really, really

746
00:43:36.159 --> 00:43:38.599
<v Speaker 2>terrible and they're having a difficult time keeping up on

747
00:43:38.719 --> 00:43:40.960
<v Speaker 2>my case side of Montgomery Road as a prime illustration,

748
00:43:41.000 --> 00:43:42.719
<v Speaker 2>because that's the one I drove down rather than hitting

749
00:43:42.760 --> 00:43:46.360
<v Speaker 2>the Expressway had already been plowed once and there was

750
00:43:46.400 --> 00:43:49.719
<v Speaker 2>a good three inches of snow on top of the

751
00:43:49.800 --> 00:43:51.760
<v Speaker 2>road after they had plowed once. And it's only going

752
00:43:51.800 --> 00:43:54.119
<v Speaker 2>to accumulate more. They're still saying like one to five

753
00:43:54.239 --> 00:43:59.239
<v Speaker 2>additional inches today as we look forward into the afternoon

754
00:43:59.280 --> 00:44:04.000
<v Speaker 2>with snow continue. So anyhow, uh face remember to stop

755
00:44:04.039 --> 00:44:06.119
<v Speaker 2>by fifty five cares you dot Com get your heart

756
00:44:06.159 --> 00:44:09.679
<v Speaker 2>media app. So, not knowing which direction I want to go,

757
00:44:13.920 --> 00:44:19.079
<v Speaker 2>I'll start with this one, which just scares the living

758
00:44:19.079 --> 00:44:20.639
<v Speaker 2>hell at I mean, I started on a rant this

759
00:44:20.719 --> 00:44:24.599
<v Speaker 2>morning because I was looking at Rando Paul's annual Festivus

760
00:44:24.599 --> 00:44:28.400
<v Speaker 2>list and just getting just beside myself with anger over

761
00:44:28.480 --> 00:44:31.599
<v Speaker 2>all of the millions in no, sorry trillions of dollars

762
00:44:31.639 --> 00:44:36.400
<v Speaker 2>that our federal government blows through, and it's rapacious taxation

763
00:44:36.559 --> 00:44:40.679
<v Speaker 2>that doesn't even satisfy the demands of these idiots that

764
00:44:40.719 --> 00:44:43.039
<v Speaker 2>we elect, and all of the things that they pay

765
00:44:43.159 --> 00:44:49.679
<v Speaker 2>for with our labor. Again, it is your earnings and

766
00:44:49.760 --> 00:44:52.320
<v Speaker 2>just one item after another you can be angry about

767
00:44:54.559 --> 00:44:57.119
<v Speaker 2>as opposed to I mean, reminds me of Cincinni City

768
00:44:57.119 --> 00:45:03.239
<v Speaker 2>Council chasing shiny objects and stuff and things when they

769
00:45:03.360 --> 00:45:12.000
<v Speaker 2>leave roads completely unwell. Today's case, perhaps not plowed or treated,

770
00:45:13.239 --> 00:45:16.159
<v Speaker 2>but they let the roads and the infrastructure deteriorate, neighborhoods

771
00:45:16.159 --> 00:45:18.679
<v Speaker 2>falling apart. Whatever the case may be, it's mismanagement of

772
00:45:18.719 --> 00:45:20.960
<v Speaker 2>government because they always want to throw something shiny and

773
00:45:21.039 --> 00:45:24.199
<v Speaker 2>new at you, which is basically this entire Festivus Report.

774
00:45:24.239 --> 00:45:27.559
<v Speaker 2>Although I think our elected officials don't really even want

775
00:45:27.599 --> 00:45:31.800
<v Speaker 2>you to know the type of spending they engage in

776
00:45:31.840 --> 00:45:36.400
<v Speaker 2>that rand Paul reveals every single year in his Festivus Report,

777
00:45:38.679 --> 00:45:42.079
<v Speaker 2>what of important matters? Going back to the analogy I

778
00:45:42.159 --> 00:45:49.119
<v Speaker 2>drew with, since a city council and infrastructure Jake Sullivan,

779
00:45:49.280 --> 00:45:53.920
<v Speaker 2>National Security Advisor, This was originally report of the Wall

780
00:45:53.920 --> 00:45:56.280
<v Speaker 2>Street Journal I found out a Newsmax Doesn't Matter though,

781
00:45:56.320 --> 00:46:00.119
<v Speaker 2>made what they describe as stunning admission that Chiny these

782
00:46:00.199 --> 00:46:04.039
<v Speaker 2>hackers aka the Chinese Communist Party have the ability to

783
00:46:04.159 --> 00:46:09.920
<v Speaker 2>cripple the American power grid and ports, and apparently not

784
00:46:10.039 --> 00:46:15.039
<v Speaker 2>just run of the middle intrusions, but via sophisticated actors

785
00:46:15.039 --> 00:46:22.480
<v Speaker 2>with unparalleled skills. Apparently Jake Sullivan, again national Security Advisor,

786
00:46:22.519 --> 00:46:24.679
<v Speaker 2>had known about the Chinese hackers' ability to knock out

787
00:46:24.719 --> 00:46:27.760
<v Speaker 2>critical infrastructure for more than a year, according to sources

788
00:46:27.800 --> 00:46:30.719
<v Speaker 2>speaking with a Wall Street Journal fall of twenty three,

789
00:46:30.880 --> 00:46:35.159
<v Speaker 2>he warned telecommunications and technology executives in a secret White

790
00:46:35.199 --> 00:46:39.360
<v Speaker 2>House meeting, seeking big Tech's help and protecting the American

791
00:46:39.400 --> 00:46:45.000
<v Speaker 2>lives and infrastructure from hacks. Huh, Considering this has been

792
00:46:45.039 --> 00:46:48.239
<v Speaker 2>going on for well probably the last decade plus, ever

793
00:46:48.280 --> 00:46:50.119
<v Speaker 2>since the world got hooked up to the Internet, you'd

794
00:46:50.159 --> 00:46:52.079
<v Speaker 2>think they might have gotten ahead of this a little bit,

795
00:46:52.119 --> 00:46:54.239
<v Speaker 2>considering the number of enemies we have in the world,

796
00:46:55.199 --> 00:46:57.679
<v Speaker 2>and considering that we're probably doing the same thing to them.

797
00:46:58.679 --> 00:47:02.800
<v Speaker 2>If we're doing it, they're doing it, and vice versa.

798
00:47:04.000 --> 00:47:07.519
<v Speaker 2>But since the fall of twenty twenty three secret White

799
00:47:07.519 --> 00:47:10.679
<v Speaker 2>House meeting with the telecommunications technology executives, there have been

800
00:47:10.719 --> 00:47:15.000
<v Speaker 2>at least nine US telecom companies hacked. That according to

801
00:47:15.000 --> 00:47:20.320
<v Speaker 2>the Wunational Security Advisor for cybersecurity and Nuiberger, who speaking

802
00:47:20.320 --> 00:47:23.199
<v Speaker 2>with the journal said, we will never know regarding the

803
00:47:23.280 --> 00:47:27.199
<v Speaker 2>scope and scale of this. They were very careful about

804
00:47:27.239 --> 00:47:31.840
<v Speaker 2>their techniques, and they say this sort of his morph

805
00:47:31.960 --> 00:47:35.199
<v Speaker 2>They initially maybe like a some I don't know, teenager

806
00:47:35.199 --> 00:47:41.920
<v Speaker 2>and abatement basement, they said. Keyboard warriors, described as once

807
00:47:42.039 --> 00:47:46.599
<v Speaker 2>seen as the cyber equivalent of noisy, drunken burglars, which

808
00:47:46.679 --> 00:47:51.119
<v Speaker 2>are now considered soldiers with again in the Journal's words,

809
00:47:51.159 --> 00:47:57.079
<v Speaker 2>astonishing skill level and stealth. FARI sexpert Gordon Chang, speaking

810
00:47:57.079 --> 00:47:59.480
<v Speaker 2>with Newsback, said, you know, they're going to take down

811
00:47:59.639 --> 00:48:04.079
<v Speaker 2>our grid. They're going to take down everything we have.

812
00:48:04.159 --> 00:48:06.599
<v Speaker 2>We're going to be like an eighteen fifties country with

813
00:48:06.719 --> 00:48:12.760
<v Speaker 2>the things that we've been accustomed to that operate our country,

814
00:48:13.719 --> 00:48:29.400
<v Speaker 2>like electricity, running water. Former Department of Homeland Security cybersecurity

815
00:48:29.440 --> 00:48:32.679
<v Speaker 2>expert Brandon Wales warned that the hacks are the key

816
00:48:32.880 --> 00:48:36.320
<v Speaker 2>battlefield in any future conflict. Well, that goes without saying, now,

817
00:48:36.360 --> 00:48:39.159
<v Speaker 2>doesn't it. And considering they're engaging this activity twenty four

818
00:48:39.199 --> 00:48:40.599
<v Speaker 2>hours a day, seven days a week, I mean, this

819
00:48:40.719 --> 00:48:44.760
<v Speaker 2>is government controlled hacking. They are at it all the time.

820
00:48:44.880 --> 00:48:53.880
<v Speaker 2>We are literally at war with these clowns. Corner Jake Sullivan,

821
00:48:53.920 --> 00:48:59.039
<v Speaker 2>speaking with Journal, cyberspace is a fiercely contested battlefield. We

822
00:48:59.159 --> 00:49:04.559
<v Speaker 2>have made concent s progress, but and you knew that

823
00:49:04.599 --> 00:49:08.800
<v Speaker 2>word was in there, serious vulnerabilities remain in sectors where

824
00:49:08.800 --> 00:49:14.920
<v Speaker 2>we don't have mandatory cybersecurity requirements. M Is that suggesting

825
00:49:14.960 --> 00:49:17.199
<v Speaker 2>that we need to make things mandatory in order for

826
00:49:17.280 --> 00:49:19.519
<v Speaker 2>us to get ahead of these problems. This is the

827
00:49:19.840 --> 00:49:22.880
<v Speaker 2>Dave Hatter warns about this stuff every single day. You

828
00:49:22.920 --> 00:49:25.960
<v Speaker 2>have it within your power and control to make sure

829
00:49:25.639 --> 00:49:30.480
<v Speaker 2>your systems are reasonably secure, and we choose not to

830
00:49:30.559 --> 00:49:35.320
<v Speaker 2>do it. Businesses regularly fail to engage in just even

831
00:49:36.000 --> 00:49:43.920
<v Speaker 2>rudimentary security practices. Senator Dan Sullivan from Alaska Republicans said

832
00:49:43.960 --> 00:49:51.360
<v Speaker 2>the US vulnerability in his word breath taking, adding its

833
00:49:51.400 --> 00:49:58.880
<v Speaker 2>shocking how exposed we are and still are now of

834
00:49:58.960 --> 00:50:02.360
<v Speaker 2>all the things our government and pays for and all

835
00:50:02.400 --> 00:50:06.119
<v Speaker 2>the things that your taxpayer dollars are used for, including

836
00:50:07.039 --> 00:50:13.800
<v Speaker 2>bearded transgender groups preaching climate change in an ice skating event. Yeah,

837
00:50:13.800 --> 00:50:16.639
<v Speaker 2>you paid for that. See Senator Ran Paul's Festivus report.

838
00:50:17.199 --> 00:50:18.679
<v Speaker 2>Do you think it'd be a little bit better if

839
00:50:18.719 --> 00:50:22.719
<v Speaker 2>they allocated, well, perhaps unlimited resources to dealing with the

840
00:50:22.800 --> 00:50:27.440
<v Speaker 2>security of our country the idea that we have We

841
00:50:27.480 --> 00:50:30.800
<v Speaker 2>are told upfront national Security advisor letting us know that

842
00:50:30.840 --> 00:50:33.519
<v Speaker 2>they literally have the ability to knock out our critical

843
00:50:33.519 --> 00:50:37.880
<v Speaker 2>infrastructure right now by simply flipping a switch. In essence,

844
00:50:42.159 --> 00:50:45.639
<v Speaker 2>all the billions and billions and billions of dollars we

845
00:50:45.760 --> 00:50:48.840
<v Speaker 2>spent on preventing you from exhaling. I see Joe Biden

846
00:50:48.840 --> 00:50:55.159
<v Speaker 2>wants to ban natural gas non condensing water heaters. Now, yeah,

847
00:50:55.480 --> 00:50:57.760
<v Speaker 2>you know the flash water heaters, right, They just you know,

848
00:50:57.880 --> 00:51:01.920
<v Speaker 2>instantly create a water in your home. Very popular for

849
00:51:01.960 --> 00:51:04.559
<v Speaker 2>people who have very little space. They're really hugely, wildly

850
00:51:04.599 --> 00:51:08.679
<v Speaker 2>popular in Europe. I spend their time just preventing because

851
00:51:08.719 --> 00:51:15.039
<v Speaker 2>of CO two exhalation. Actually it's trillions of dollars on that.

852
00:51:15.440 --> 00:51:17.960
<v Speaker 2>The whole Green New Deal thing, the Inflation Reduction Act

853
00:51:18.000 --> 00:51:21.639
<v Speaker 2>that had nothing to do with inflation reduction actually increase inflation,

854
00:51:24.559 --> 00:51:29.639
<v Speaker 2>all about stopping exhalation. And according to the reports on

855
00:51:29.679 --> 00:51:33.760
<v Speaker 2>these tankless water heaters, the ones that he wants to

856
00:51:33.800 --> 00:51:41.000
<v Speaker 2>ban are more energy efficient and produce less carbon dioxide

857
00:51:41.480 --> 00:51:44.519
<v Speaker 2>than your standard tank water heater which are not banned.

858
00:51:45.159 --> 00:51:48.199
<v Speaker 2>It's going to push people back into the tank water heater.

859
00:51:50.199 --> 00:51:53.960
<v Speaker 2>Just don't understand. You live in a crazy, crazy, crazy

860
00:51:53.960 --> 00:51:58.199
<v Speaker 2>world five one three seven two three talk pound five

861
00:51:58.239 --> 00:52:00.440
<v Speaker 2>fifty on AT and T phones and an increase singly

862
00:52:00.480 --> 00:52:03.840
<v Speaker 2>stupid world. I got an article on that to mention

863
00:52:04.800 --> 00:52:07.239
<v Speaker 2>in a moment. First, I'll work for OTO Exit great products.

864
00:52:07.280 --> 00:52:10.039
<v Speaker 2>ODO exit products will get rid of the odors you're

865
00:52:10.039 --> 00:52:12.960
<v Speaker 2>dealing with? What kind of odor? Pick one, with the

866
00:52:13.000 --> 00:52:15.599
<v Speaker 2>exception of the stench of politics and the revelations in

867
00:52:15.679 --> 00:52:22.679
<v Speaker 2>the Rampaul Festivus Report, mold, mildew, smoke, what else you got?

868
00:52:22.719 --> 00:52:22.960
<v Speaker 4>Food?

869
00:52:23.000 --> 00:52:25.360
<v Speaker 2>Odors? Absolutely, I've always like to mention I keep the

870
00:52:25.360 --> 00:52:28.360
<v Speaker 2>ODO Exit Magic in my car to eliminate the stench

871
00:52:28.480 --> 00:52:31.719
<v Speaker 2>of any form of fast food that comes home in

872
00:52:31.800 --> 00:52:35.519
<v Speaker 2>my car. Works great. Dog rolls around in something in

873
00:52:35.559 --> 00:52:37.719
<v Speaker 2>the yard and it stinks and you can't get rid

874
00:52:37.760 --> 00:52:39.800
<v Speaker 2>of it. Wash them off and the stink will still

875
00:52:39.800 --> 00:52:41.800
<v Speaker 2>be there. I've been down that road a bunch of times.

876
00:52:41.800 --> 00:52:44.760
<v Speaker 2>Outcomes the ODO Exit concentrate, pour it on a rag,

877
00:52:44.840 --> 00:52:46.760
<v Speaker 2>rub it over the dog's head, and the odor is

878
00:52:46.840 --> 00:52:50.039
<v Speaker 2>magically gone, works on and it comes with one hundred

879
00:52:50.079 --> 00:52:55.280
<v Speaker 2>percent satisfaction guarantee. So if it does not eliminate the

880
00:52:55.320 --> 00:52:57.719
<v Speaker 2>odor that you are trying to get rid of when

881
00:52:57.760 --> 00:53:00.480
<v Speaker 2>you use it as directed, and I always suggests hauling

882
00:53:00.679 --> 00:53:03.719
<v Speaker 2>them if for whatever reason you have a problem, like

883
00:53:03.719 --> 00:53:05.800
<v Speaker 2>for it doesn't work the first time. Trust me, they're

884
00:53:05.840 --> 00:53:07.440
<v Speaker 2>experts at this, they've been up and down this road

885
00:53:07.480 --> 00:53:09.599
<v Speaker 2>a million times. But if it doesn't work, you get

886
00:53:09.599 --> 00:53:11.400
<v Speaker 2>your money back, so you got nothing to worry about it.

887
00:53:11.400 --> 00:53:13.719
<v Speaker 2>Buy it locally, find a store right there on the website,

888
00:53:13.800 --> 00:53:16.559
<v Speaker 2>or buy it online and it'll be delivered tomorrow to

889
00:53:16.639 --> 00:53:18.679

912
00:54:22.960 --> 00:54:27.559
<v Speaker 2>thousand gajillion illustrations of it today. Is anyone as offended

913
00:54:27.639 --> 00:54:32.079
<v Speaker 2>as me? Or do you share my offense that Joe

914
00:54:32.079 --> 00:54:36.760
<v Speaker 2>Biden awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom to, among other people,

915
00:54:36.920 --> 00:54:47.559
<v Speaker 2>George Soros. George Soros, I just I'm beside myself in

916
00:54:47.639 --> 00:54:51.440
<v Speaker 2>disbelief on this. According to the statement from the White House,

917
00:54:51.519 --> 00:54:55.519
<v Speaker 2>the nation's highest civilian honor is given to individuals who

918
00:54:55.519 --> 00:55:00.559
<v Speaker 2>have made exemplary contributions to the prosperity, value, use, or

919
00:55:00.639 --> 00:55:04.719
<v Speaker 2>security of the United States. Now, if you put a

920
00:55:04.760 --> 00:55:07.840
<v Speaker 2>period there, you couldn't call up with a single reason

921
00:55:07.880 --> 00:55:11.199
<v Speaker 2>why George Soros would be even worthy of consideration for this.

922
00:55:12.360 --> 00:55:14.519
<v Speaker 2>But it's also it's not just the United States, it's

923
00:55:14.599 --> 00:55:20.760
<v Speaker 2>world peace or other significant societal, public or private endeavors.

924
00:55:23.360 --> 00:55:28.119
<v Speaker 2>George Soros, he has done more to undermine capitalism and

925
00:55:28.159 --> 00:55:30.360
<v Speaker 2>our freedoms and liberties. I think they're a human being

926
00:55:30.360 --> 00:55:35.760
<v Speaker 2>with money is woke society whatever the hell they call

927
00:55:35.840 --> 00:55:39.199
<v Speaker 2>that Open Society Foundation. So far, Sourus has given thirty

928
00:55:39.280 --> 00:55:44.079
<v Speaker 2>two billion dollars to Open Society Foundation since nineteen eighty four,

929
00:55:44.199 --> 00:55:48.320
<v Speaker 2>spending his capitalist earned dollars to undermine capitalism and also

930
00:55:48.400 --> 00:55:54.280
<v Speaker 2>make your city a terrible crime filled cesspool of humanity,

931
00:55:54.320 --> 00:55:57.400
<v Speaker 2>funding all of these left wing das who refused to

932
00:55:57.440 --> 00:56:04.000
<v Speaker 2>prosecute crime. In fact, Elon must pointed that out, also

933
00:56:04.119 --> 00:56:06.800
<v Speaker 2>noting that Elon Musk's position on George Soros is that

934
00:56:06.840 --> 00:56:13.039
<v Speaker 2>he fundamentally hates humanity his words, saying he also said

935
00:56:13.119 --> 00:56:16.480
<v Speaker 2>he's doing things that erode the fabric of civilization and

936
00:56:16.599 --> 00:56:18.440
<v Speaker 2>pointing out what I just pointed out, you know, getting

937
00:56:18.480 --> 00:56:24.719
<v Speaker 2>DA's elected who refused to prosecute crime. True, I'm sure

938
00:56:24.800 --> 00:56:27.400
<v Speaker 2>Joe Biden didn't even realize whose neck he was hanging

939
00:56:27.440 --> 00:56:30.840
<v Speaker 2>that medal around. That's the world we live in, folks.

940
00:56:32.159 --> 00:56:38.280
<v Speaker 2>George Soros has given the nation's highest civilian honor, Hillary

941
00:56:38.280 --> 00:56:41.119
<v Speaker 2>Clinton as well. But you know what, I could almost

942
00:56:41.280 --> 00:56:47.519
<v Speaker 2>even make a plausible argument for Hillary Clinton. Almost not really, though,

943
00:56:47.519 --> 00:56:49.960
<v Speaker 2>considering all the crimes she's been involved with and all

944
00:56:50.000 --> 00:56:52.920
<v Speaker 2>of the well, you know, the bleach bidding her server,

945
00:56:53.199 --> 00:56:57.559
<v Speaker 2>using private email server for government business. Even James Comey,

946
00:56:57.719 --> 00:57:01.760
<v Speaker 2>FBI director said publicly that she had handled classified information.

947
00:57:02.159 --> 00:57:04.039
<v Speaker 2>But they'll take Donald Trump and run him through the

948
00:57:04.079 --> 00:57:06.760
<v Speaker 2>ringer for something like that, won't they Not Hillary Clinton?

949
00:57:06.800 --> 00:57:13.800
<v Speaker 2>She got a free pass, you know. And those are

950
00:57:13.840 --> 00:57:18.280
<v Speaker 2>the things that we know about Hillary Clinton. But of

951
00:57:18.320 --> 00:57:20.920

979
00:58:41.400 --> 00:58:44.280
<v Speaker 2>telling everybody that there's free coffee at the hard Rock

980
00:58:44.320 --> 00:58:48.559
<v Speaker 2>Cafe where he works Hard Rock Casino, that is, I

981
00:58:48.599 --> 00:58:50.639
<v Speaker 2>actually mentioned that. He I said he was a dealer.

982
00:58:50.679 --> 00:58:55.599
<v Speaker 2>He's not. He's in surveillance. He's the one that's looking

983
00:58:55.639 --> 00:58:59.079
<v Speaker 2>at you through all the cameras. I suppose. Anyhow, their

984
00:58:59.199 --> 00:59:03.920
<v Speaker 2>record corrected. Mike love you brother, and do stay off

985
00:59:03.920 --> 00:59:06.119
<v Speaker 2>the road to the extent it's humanly possible. There's no

986
00:59:06.159 --> 00:59:08.559
<v Speaker 2>reason to be out there unless you absolutely have to.

987
00:59:10.239 --> 00:59:16.519
<v Speaker 2>Let us see here. Going over to local stories, I

988
00:59:16.559 --> 00:59:19.440
<v Speaker 2>thought this was a rather I I vacillated on how

989
00:59:19.480 --> 00:59:22.239
<v Speaker 2>I felt about this one. My initial reaction was no way,

990
00:59:22.519 --> 00:59:24.880
<v Speaker 2>and then I kind of thought, well, there are some

991
00:59:24.920 --> 00:59:29.199
<v Speaker 2>good arguments for it regardless. Last week how Governor Mike

992
00:59:29.239 --> 00:59:32.119
<v Speaker 2>DeWine signed into law House Bill three point fifteen that

993
00:59:32.239 --> 00:59:38.880
<v Speaker 2>is now legal for police departments to charge for certain

994
00:59:38.920 --> 00:59:42.159
<v Speaker 2>public records requests. That bill contains a provision giving the

995
00:59:42.159 --> 00:59:45.000
<v Speaker 2>police authority to charge a person or an entity for

996
00:59:45.199 --> 00:59:48.760
<v Speaker 2>video requests. Fox nineteen reported on these this. They mentioned

997
00:59:48.760 --> 00:59:51.239
<v Speaker 2>themselves on this, like those that Fox nineteen now into

998
00:59:51.280 --> 00:59:56.000
<v Speaker 2>the media audience agencies. Using reporting, Fox nineteen interviewed a

999
00:59:56.039 --> 00:59:59.119
<v Speaker 2>legal analyst named Mark Crumbine. He says that this provision

1000
00:59:59.119 --> 01:00:03.000
<v Speaker 2>applies to police video like dash camera or body camera footage.

1001
01:00:03.079 --> 01:00:06.159
<v Speaker 2>Quote that Governor's saying that police municipality can charge up

1002
01:00:06.159 --> 01:00:08.679
<v Speaker 2>to seventy five dollars an hour from ten hours worth

1003
01:00:08.679 --> 01:00:13.400
<v Speaker 2>of work. Max on providing videotapes to the public. Now

1004
01:00:13.480 --> 01:00:15.920
<v Speaker 2>Ken covert the FOP president chimed in on this. He

1005
01:00:15.960 --> 01:00:18.400
<v Speaker 2>was interviewed by Fox nineteen. He said it was necessary

1006
01:00:18.440 --> 01:00:24.119
<v Speaker 2>because public records requests for videos continue to increase, and

1007
01:00:24.440 --> 01:00:28.559
<v Speaker 2>of course it takes manpower or people power to keep

1008
01:00:28.639 --> 01:00:30.920
<v Speaker 2>up with these requests. He goes, you get records requests

1009
01:00:30.920 --> 01:00:34.880
<v Speaker 2>for hundreds and hundreds of hours of video from some

1010
01:00:35.119 --> 01:00:39.000
<v Speaker 2>YouTuber in California, it's going to turn you around your district,

1011
01:00:39.079 --> 01:00:43.039
<v Speaker 2>and it's going to turn around, dissect it and make money.

1012
01:00:44.199 --> 01:00:46.360
<v Speaker 2>According to him, police records contain a lot of sensitive

1013
01:00:46.400 --> 01:00:49.119
<v Speaker 2>information that needs to be protected, including like victim's name

1014
01:00:49.239 --> 01:00:51.960
<v Speaker 2>and faces. Victims do have rights that must be protected,

1015
01:00:52.000 --> 01:00:55.280
<v Speaker 2>he pointed out. He says bodycam footage often shows private

1016
01:00:55.360 --> 01:01:00.400
<v Speaker 2>databases from other computers. That redacting or blurring out all

1017
01:01:00.400 --> 01:01:03.079
<v Speaker 2>of this is a huge undertaking. That's where your expense

1018
01:01:03.119 --> 01:01:05.159
<v Speaker 2>comes in. He said, that takes time, it takes money

1019
01:01:05.159 --> 01:01:07.760
<v Speaker 2>to do it. It also costs money to do it. It's

1020
01:01:07.800 --> 01:01:10.000
<v Speaker 2>just a way instead of having taxpayers do it, it's

1021
01:01:10.039 --> 01:01:12.079
<v Speaker 2>a way to make the person who's requesting it pay

1022
01:01:12.159 --> 01:01:15.360
<v Speaker 2>for it. According to Governor Wine, in a statement, no

1023
01:01:15.440 --> 01:01:18.079
<v Speaker 2>law enforcement agencies should ever have to choose between diverting

1024
01:01:18.119 --> 01:01:20.639
<v Speaker 2>resource for officers on the street to move them to

1025
01:01:20.719 --> 01:01:25.480
<v Speaker 2>administrative tasks like lengthy video redaction reviews, for which agencies

1026
01:01:25.519 --> 01:01:29.239
<v Speaker 2>receive no compensation. And this is especially so for when

1027
01:01:29.280 --> 01:01:31.679
<v Speaker 2>the requester of the video is a private company seeking

1028
01:01:31.719 --> 01:01:37.440
<v Speaker 2>to make money off these videos. Dwine says he supports

1029
01:01:37.480 --> 01:01:40.559
<v Speaker 2>the publics and the news media's right to access public records,

1030
01:01:40.719 --> 01:01:43.320
<v Speaker 2>and he says it doesn't the bill doesn't change that right.

1031
01:01:43.679 --> 01:01:45.679
<v Speaker 2>It just shifts over the burden on who's got to

1032
01:01:45.719 --> 01:01:48.559
<v Speaker 2>pay for it, So it's now a long the state

1033
01:01:48.760 --> 01:01:52.920
<v Speaker 2>like it or not. Special prosecutor has found that allegations

1034
01:01:52.960 --> 01:01:58.159
<v Speaker 2>made by of Democrat Ohio Representative Cecil Thomas against Hamilton

1035
01:01:58.199 --> 01:02:04.119
<v Speaker 2>County Prosecutor Melissa Power days before the election were entirely baseless.

1036
01:02:06.519 --> 01:02:08.599
<v Speaker 2>Tim My County Prosecutor Mark to Call he filed the

1037
01:02:08.599 --> 01:02:15.079
<v Speaker 2>thirteen page report last week. He was appointed to be

1038
01:02:15.199 --> 01:02:18.199
<v Speaker 2>special prosecutor to look into this. To Call he found

1039
01:02:18.239 --> 01:02:21.360
<v Speaker 2>Thomas's sworn affidavit and support of his claims was filed

1040
01:02:21.440 --> 01:02:24.800
<v Speaker 2>in bad faith. That's a quote from the report. And

1041
01:02:25.159 --> 01:02:27.480
<v Speaker 2>for her part, Melissa Powers said it was shameful that

1042
01:02:27.519 --> 01:02:30.199
<v Speaker 2>these allegations were taken seriously by anyone from the start,

1043
01:02:30.280 --> 01:02:32.800
<v Speaker 2>because this was nothing more than a politically motivated hit

1044
01:02:32.840 --> 01:02:35.880
<v Speaker 2>design to influence the outcome of November's election, and it's

1045
01:02:35.880 --> 01:02:39.320
<v Speaker 2>been dismissed correctly for the sham that it is. Thomas

1046
01:02:39.320 --> 01:02:44.360
<v Speaker 2>filed the allegations November first, and we all know what

1047
01:02:44.400 --> 01:02:48.639
<v Speaker 2>happened to Melissa Powers, the far superior candidate. She lost

1048
01:02:48.679 --> 01:02:54.880
<v Speaker 2>to college Connie Pillage by a few points. Powers also

1049
01:02:54.920 --> 01:02:57.760
<v Speaker 2>said she's evaluating her legal options to remedy the damage

1050
01:02:57.760 --> 01:03:01.719
<v Speaker 2>that this act has caused. Now, for his part, Thomas

1051
01:03:01.760 --> 01:03:04.480
<v Speaker 2>alleges the Powers, who was a former juvenile court judge,

1052
01:03:04.519 --> 01:03:07.599
<v Speaker 2>backdated a court entry in a case back in twenty

1053
01:03:07.639 --> 01:03:11.880
<v Speaker 2>twenty one. Powers said she had simply corrected a clerical

1054
01:03:11.960 --> 01:03:14.480
<v Speaker 2>error in order to preserve a juvenile's right to appeal

1055
01:03:14.599 --> 01:03:18.559
<v Speaker 2>one of her decisions. Now a special prosecutor to cull.

1056
01:03:18.639 --> 01:03:22.559
<v Speaker 2>They found that Hamilton County Juvenile Court computer system does

1057
01:03:22.599 --> 01:03:25.800
<v Speaker 2>not allow users to backdate entries, and the Powers that

1058
01:03:25.960 --> 01:03:29.000
<v Speaker 2>wanted information on the DACA change, she would have had

1059
01:03:29.039 --> 01:03:31.159
<v Speaker 2>to first put at the request in writing, and there

1060
01:03:31.320 --> 01:03:34.760
<v Speaker 2>was no such request in the case, so period, end

1061
01:03:34.840 --> 01:03:39.639
<v Speaker 2>of story. Surprised you didn't give him out the award

1062
01:03:39.679 --> 01:03:44.639
<v Speaker 2>This morning, Joe it just kind of goes without saying, yeah,

1063
01:03:44.679 --> 01:03:49.440
<v Speaker 2>I suppose you're right on that. Just shy six thirty

1068
01:03:58.719 --> 01:04:00.719
<v Speaker 2>Even wanting to get your kitchen model, you want it

1069
01:04:00.760 --> 01:04:02.559
<v Speaker 2>done right. You want to work with somebody who're really

1070

1072

1073
01:04:11.559 --> 01:04:14.800
<v Speaker 2>Kitchen Bath Association member. And he does a wonderful job.

1074
01:04:14.880 --> 01:04:17.320
<v Speaker 2>I know this because he well remodeled our kitchen. We

1075
01:04:17.360 --> 01:04:20.679
<v Speaker 2>went for a full gut rehab, starting from scratch, in

1076
01:04:20.800 --> 01:04:25.679
<v Speaker 2>essence tearing out the builder special. It was a pretty

1077
01:04:25.679 --> 01:04:27.440
<v Speaker 2>bare bones kitchen, I got to point out. But that's

1078
01:04:27.440 --> 01:04:29.000
<v Speaker 2>why we wanted it done. We wanted it done right.

1079
01:04:29.039 --> 01:04:30.920
<v Speaker 2>So we got what we wanted, and we got more

1080
01:04:30.960 --> 01:04:33.039
<v Speaker 2>than we wanted because we listened to the advice that

1081
01:04:33.119 --> 01:04:35.679
<v Speaker 2>John passed along to us. You might want to consider

1082
01:04:35.719 --> 01:04:37.719
<v Speaker 2>doing this. You might want to consider doing that. Now,

1083
01:04:37.760 --> 01:04:39.880
<v Speaker 2>that's probably not a good idea. Have you thought about

1084
01:04:39.960 --> 01:04:42.000
<v Speaker 2>and you're like, oh, wow, yeah, I didn't think about that.

1085
01:04:42.239 --> 01:04:42.360
<v Speaker 10>Well.

1086
01:04:42.400 --> 01:04:46.639
<v Speaker 2>John's been doing kitchens for north to thirty years almost exclusively,

1087
01:04:47.320 --> 01:04:49.840
<v Speaker 2>so he's senior kitchen. Whether it's big or small. The

1089
01:04:51.679 --> 01:04:53.719
<v Speaker 2>Maybe you just want to do countertops and cabinets. Not

1090
01:04:53.760 --> 01:04:55.960
<v Speaker 2>a problem for John. Got the whole thing start over.

1091
01:04:56.599 --> 01:04:59.159

01:06:27.599 --> 01:06:30.039
<v Speaker 2>for me while I stared at the back of my eyelids,

1121
01:06:30.119 --> 01:06:32.559
<v Speaker 2>enjoyed my sleeping in time on vacation. And thanks again

1122
01:06:32.639 --> 01:06:35.639
<v Speaker 2>to my family for well the enjoyable time that I

1123
01:06:35.760 --> 01:06:38.039
<v Speaker 2>had while while I was off. So hitting the ground,

1124
01:06:38.079 --> 01:06:40.519
<v Speaker 2>running here and counting your twenty twenty five, nineteen years

1125
01:06:40.559 --> 01:06:43.760
<v Speaker 2>in radio. Love talking with you, and let us do that.

1126
01:06:43.880 --> 01:06:46.039
<v Speaker 2>Hanks on the phone. Let's take Hank's call. Hank, Welcome

1127
01:06:46.039 --> 01:06:48.960
<v Speaker 2>to the show. Happy new Year to you, Same to you.

1128
01:06:49.119 --> 01:06:52.920
<v Speaker 7>Brian, at least in regards to us. Anyway, I'm not

1129
01:06:53.039 --> 01:06:55.320
<v Speaker 7>so sure about the rest of the country with Joe

1130
01:06:55.360 --> 01:06:58.239
<v Speaker 7>Biden running it still, or it is on paper.

1131
01:06:58.119 --> 01:07:00.599
<v Speaker 2>Well, give it a few minutes. It's one o'clo. We'll

1132
01:07:00.639 --> 01:07:03.480
<v Speaker 2>have a new commander in chief. And I suspect that

1133
01:07:03.599 --> 01:07:06.599
<v Speaker 2>Donald Trump has a stack of executive orders and he'll

1134
01:07:06.639 --> 01:07:09.280
<v Speaker 2>spend the rest of the day signing them. So we'll see.

1135
01:07:10.199 --> 01:07:11.039
<v Speaker 2>Try to be optimistic.

1136
01:07:12.599 --> 01:07:15.800
<v Speaker 7>In any case, I was kind of fired up about

1137
01:07:15.840 --> 01:07:20.880
<v Speaker 7>hearing about George Soro to Soros getting the Presidential Metal

1138
01:07:21.000 --> 01:07:22.039
<v Speaker 7>Honor of Freedom or.

1139
01:07:22.079 --> 01:07:25.880
<v Speaker 5>Whatever, and before that even I was.

1140
01:07:25.960 --> 01:07:28.519
<v Speaker 7>Kind of irritated with all the money that he's freed

1141
01:07:28.639 --> 01:07:32.599
<v Speaker 7>up for Iran. I'm wondering if maybe we can't have

1142
01:07:32.840 --> 01:07:38.559
<v Speaker 7>the Democrat Party declared a terrorist supporting organization and freeze

1143
01:07:38.599 --> 01:07:41.960
<v Speaker 7>their assets. I know Judge and Apolitano would probably have

1144
01:07:42.039 --> 01:07:45.400
<v Speaker 7>a hissy fit over that, but seriously, these people have

1145
01:07:45.559 --> 01:07:48.920
<v Speaker 7>done so much damage to our national security at this point,

1146
01:07:49.599 --> 01:07:52.599
<v Speaker 7>it almost doesn't seem fair that we have to tolerate.

1147
01:07:52.239 --> 01:07:53.920
<v Speaker 4>Having them on our continent anymore.

1148
01:07:54.199 --> 01:07:57.079
<v Speaker 2>Well, I get the passion, and I understand where your

1149
01:07:57.119 --> 01:07:59.480
<v Speaker 2>words and your suggestions are coming from, even if you

1150
01:07:59.559 --> 01:08:01.239
<v Speaker 2>sort of got your tongue in your cheek or not.

1151
01:08:01.840 --> 01:08:05.719
<v Speaker 2>But see, look what happened in spite of their best efforts.

1152
01:08:05.760 --> 01:08:07.960
<v Speaker 2>And they have been hard at work for the past

1153
01:08:08.159 --> 01:08:12.400
<v Speaker 2>eight plus years shoving this nonsense down our throat, that

1154
01:08:12.480 --> 01:08:15.960
<v Speaker 2>Donald Trump was the devil incarnate, that he was going

1155
01:08:16.039 --> 01:08:18.319
<v Speaker 2>to end democracy, that he was a fascist, that he

1156
01:08:18.439 --> 01:08:20.960
<v Speaker 2>was a Nazi, I mean, go on the whole list, evil,

1157
01:08:21.079 --> 01:08:25.000
<v Speaker 2>orange man, rapist, pedophile, whatever, they called him everything. All

1158
01:08:25.079 --> 01:08:28.600
<v Speaker 2>of the mainstream media ganged up on him and Republicans,

1159
01:08:28.640 --> 01:08:31.279
<v Speaker 2>and they have been for years and years. What happened,

1160
01:08:31.520 --> 01:08:34.399
<v Speaker 2>Donald Trump won. He won the popular vote to the

1161
01:08:34.439 --> 01:08:36.520
<v Speaker 2>extent there was any shenanigans going on in terms of

1162
01:08:36.600 --> 01:08:39.840
<v Speaker 2>tinkering or interfering with ballots or people casting ballots, etc.

1163
01:08:40.359 --> 01:08:44.720
<v Speaker 2>Guess what, it wasn't enough We collectively beat them. I

1164
01:08:44.800 --> 01:08:47.800
<v Speaker 2>guess we're smarter than they took us for that. We

1165
01:08:47.880 --> 01:08:50.039
<v Speaker 2>could see through this much in the same way you're

1166
01:08:50.159 --> 01:08:53.079
<v Speaker 2>seeing through it. As well their policies. The Democrat policies

1167
01:08:53.359 --> 01:09:00.119
<v Speaker 2>have literally ruined cities financially and otherwise, Sanctuary cities with

1168
01:09:00.239 --> 01:09:05.000
<v Speaker 2>tens of thousands of illegal immigrants soaking and using up

1169
01:09:05.159 --> 01:09:09.359
<v Speaker 2>every available dollar and then creating massive deficits, so much

1170
01:09:09.439 --> 01:09:12.600
<v Speaker 2>so that the actual citizenry and population of those cities

1171
01:09:12.640 --> 01:09:15.479
<v Speaker 2>aren't even getting the services that they think they're entitled to.

1172
01:09:16.520 --> 01:09:19.479
<v Speaker 2>It ruined America what they have done, and the American

1173
01:09:19.560 --> 01:09:22.439
<v Speaker 2>people woke up. Donald Trump won the popular vote, for

1174
01:09:22.520 --> 01:09:25.079
<v Speaker 2>God's sake, and that of course took the wind out

1175
01:09:25.119 --> 01:09:27.119
<v Speaker 2>of the left sails, because you know, damn well, if

1176
01:09:27.159 --> 01:09:30.199
<v Speaker 2>he hadn't won the popular vote, we'd be listening to unending,

1177
01:09:30.359 --> 01:09:34.359
<v Speaker 2>never ending, perpetual screams about how the electoral colleges, Oh,

1178
01:09:34.479 --> 01:09:38.920
<v Speaker 2>I don't know, racist or something. So maybe we're smarter

1179
01:09:39.039 --> 01:09:41.119
<v Speaker 2>than they take us for it, and I think collectively

1180
01:09:41.199 --> 01:09:44.399
<v Speaker 2>we are. It doesn't take a rocket science to realize.

1181
01:09:44.439 --> 01:09:47.279
<v Speaker 2>Scientists to realize that this, for example, spending that I've

1182
01:09:47.279 --> 01:09:49.560
<v Speaker 2>been talking about this morning, with the Festivus Report among

1183
01:09:49.680 --> 01:09:54.319
<v Speaker 2>other topics, cannot continue. People who are looking forward to

1184
01:09:54.479 --> 01:10:00.199
<v Speaker 2>relying on a Social Security check, you can't. That's a promise. Ok,

1185
01:10:00.239 --> 01:10:03.239
<v Speaker 2>into the American people who funded that program, that our

1186
01:10:03.239 --> 01:10:06.079
<v Speaker 2>elected officials over the years do anything, directify the situation,

1187
01:10:06.239 --> 01:10:09.439
<v Speaker 2>otherwise make it solvent. No, nothing. We spent money on

1188
01:10:10.239 --> 01:10:15.359
<v Speaker 2>bearded trans men ice skating events for God's sake, So

1189
01:10:15.600 --> 01:10:18.960
<v Speaker 2>we're smarter than that. As so far as the Democrat

1190
01:10:19.039 --> 01:10:21.880
<v Speaker 2>Party's concerned, well, elections have consequences, and we don't need

1191
01:10:22.000 --> 01:10:24.800
<v Speaker 2>to label them as a terrorist organization or otherwise consider

1192
01:10:24.880 --> 01:10:28.359
<v Speaker 2>outlawing them or deporting them. They did it to themselves.

1193
01:10:28.439 --> 01:10:33.960
<v Speaker 2>Their policies did not work. See George Soros. Yeah, Presidential

1194
01:10:34.079 --> 01:10:37.079
<v Speaker 2>Medal of Freedom recipient, George Soros, who's one of the

1195
01:10:37.119 --> 01:10:41.159
<v Speaker 2>people responsible for the failure of all these Democrat cities

1196
01:10:41.239 --> 01:10:44.760
<v Speaker 2>and for getting elected prosecutors who don't want to do

1197
01:10:44.960 --> 01:10:47.920
<v Speaker 2>their job and put people in jail who are deserving

1198
01:10:48.079 --> 01:10:52.319
<v Speaker 2>of jail time, Judges getting judges elected who don't think

1199
01:10:52.399 --> 01:10:55.800
<v Speaker 2>that sentencing people is fair or right. Oh, I don't know.

1200
01:10:55.960 --> 01:11:00.800
<v Speaker 2>Because little Johnny had a tough upbringing or something, maybe

1201
01:11:00.840 --> 01:11:02.760
<v Speaker 2>part of his upbringing or something, and the reason he

1202
01:11:02.920 --> 01:11:05.600
<v Speaker 2>committed crimes is because he no one brought into the

1203
01:11:05.880 --> 01:11:09.159
<v Speaker 2>into his life the concept of discipline, the concept of

1204
01:11:09.279 --> 01:11:11.840
<v Speaker 2>working with each other, as opposed to doing harm to

1205
01:11:11.920 --> 01:11:14.720
<v Speaker 2>another human being. I don't know. I just know that

1206
01:11:14.760 --> 01:11:17.479
<v Speaker 2>George Soros funds people who don't want to do their

1207
01:11:17.600 --> 01:11:23.239
<v Speaker 2>job to the detriment of our entire country. And look,

1208
01:11:23.960 --> 01:11:27.119
<v Speaker 2>it's a wake up call. All these Democrat cities are

1209
01:11:27.279 --> 01:11:31.199
<v Speaker 2>just undoing, trying to unring the bell that they themselves

1210
01:11:31.399 --> 01:11:35.159
<v Speaker 2>chose to ring, getting rid of the prosecutors that don't

1211
01:11:35.199 --> 01:11:42.039
<v Speaker 2>do their job recriminalizing drugs, for example. And I used

1212
01:11:42.079 --> 01:11:44.279
<v Speaker 2>to be an all in on you know, I don't

1213
01:11:44.319 --> 01:11:48.079
<v Speaker 2>believe in criminalizing self abuse. But the one thing that

1214
01:11:48.199 --> 01:11:52.159
<v Speaker 2>decriminalizing drugs has done is taking that element out where

1215
01:11:52.199 --> 01:11:55.359
<v Speaker 2>you can get someone hooked up to the concept of treatment.

1216
01:11:55.960 --> 01:11:59.000
<v Speaker 2>If they're not going to be held accountable for using

1217
01:11:59.119 --> 01:12:03.039
<v Speaker 2>illegal substance or well formerly illegal substances, then they're going

1218
01:12:03.119 --> 01:12:08.479
<v Speaker 2>to be a well a leech on society. Form homeless camps,

1219
01:12:08.560 --> 01:12:11.279
<v Speaker 2>let's have open drug use. Look look look at look

1220
01:12:11.319 --> 01:12:17.920
<v Speaker 2>how much good it did all these cities getting decriminalizing shoplifting.

1221
01:12:18.279 --> 01:12:20.079
<v Speaker 2>How'd that work out for you in California?

1222
01:12:21.239 --> 01:12:21.279
<v Speaker 10>Not?

1223
01:12:21.479 --> 01:12:24.640
<v Speaker 2>Well, that's why they tried to un or that's why

1224
01:12:24.680 --> 01:12:29.239
<v Speaker 2>they just recently unrung that bell. The experiment didn't work.

1225
01:12:29.800 --> 01:12:35.239
<v Speaker 2>The left wing experiment didn't work. They lost a lot

1226
01:12:35.399 --> 01:12:38.720
<v Speaker 2>of political powers or consequence of it, they lost the president,

1227
01:12:38.760 --> 01:12:41.800
<v Speaker 2>they lost the House. Well, we had the House barely,

1228
01:12:42.479 --> 01:12:46.439
<v Speaker 2>and of course they lost the Senate. Now let's hit

1229
01:12:46.479 --> 01:12:51.760
<v Speaker 2>the ground running. Swearing ends it one. Executive orders begin

1255
01:14:06.239 --> 01:14:12.840
<v Speaker 2>shocker Joe. That's typically in the traffic report every morning,

1256
01:14:12.880 --> 01:14:17.720
<v Speaker 2>whether it got snow or not, isn't it. It just

1257
01:14:17.800 --> 01:14:19.560
<v Speaker 2>says it could be Sonny in seventy we have a

1258
01:14:19.640 --> 01:14:21.800
<v Speaker 2>jack knife tractor trailer on the Cut in the hell. Now,

1259
01:14:21.880 --> 01:14:23.479
<v Speaker 2>it's probably true if you can stay away, if the

1260
01:14:23.600 --> 01:14:25.760
<v Speaker 2>roads please do. I know that's kind of goes without saying,

1261
01:14:25.800 --> 01:14:28.039
<v Speaker 2>and I've been mentioned it all morning, but having made

1262
01:14:28.079 --> 01:14:30.760
<v Speaker 2>the perilous trip at a quarter to three this morning

1263
01:14:30.840 --> 01:14:33.680
<v Speaker 2>down Montgomery Road and it was just a it really

1264
01:14:33.840 --> 01:14:38.520
<v Speaker 2>was bad. So thankfully I have experienced driving in the snow,

1265
01:14:38.600 --> 01:14:40.359
<v Speaker 2>and my wife has a four wheel drive car, so

1266
01:14:40.439 --> 01:14:42.359
<v Speaker 2>I was able to drive her car. Thank you, honey,

1267
01:14:42.439 --> 01:14:46.560
<v Speaker 2>appreciate it. Three hundred two three talk. Let's dumb down

1268
01:14:46.680 --> 01:14:52.279
<v Speaker 2>children even more than they're already dumb down. And this

1269
01:14:52.479 --> 01:14:54.439
<v Speaker 2>is not the first time this has happened. But when

1270
01:14:54.479 --> 01:14:58.880
<v Speaker 2>now teachers in New Jersey will no longer be required

1271
01:14:58.960 --> 01:15:03.159
<v Speaker 2>to pass a Bay Basic reading, writing, and mathematics test

1272
01:15:03.239 --> 01:15:08.920
<v Speaker 2>to be eligible for public schools. I just find this

1273
01:15:09.000 --> 01:15:11.159
<v Speaker 2>so hard to believe. It was signed in a law

1274
01:15:11.239 --> 01:15:15.279
<v Speaker 2>by Governor Phil Murphy, Democrat. Of course, it's called Act

1275
01:15:15.479 --> 01:15:21.079
<v Speaker 2>sixteen sixty nine went to effect last Wednesday. Court of

1276
01:15:21.119 --> 01:15:23.439
<v Speaker 2>Fox News report of the law aims to tackle teachers'

1277
01:15:23.439 --> 01:15:26.119
<v Speaker 2>shortages in the state by removing what the New Jersey

1278
01:15:26.199 --> 01:15:29.520
<v Speaker 2>Department of Education and Teachers' Union called a barrier to

1279
01:15:29.600 --> 01:15:35.680
<v Speaker 2>certification reading, writing, and arithmetic. Yes, that's a barrier to certification, Joe.

1280
01:15:35.920 --> 01:15:42.279
<v Speaker 2>We can't have that, Court of the text of the law,

1281
01:15:42.359 --> 01:15:44.800
<v Speaker 2>the State Board of Education shall not require a candidate

1282
01:15:44.840 --> 01:15:48.000
<v Speaker 2>seeking a certificate of eligibility, a certificate of eligibility with

1283
01:15:48.079 --> 01:15:52.600
<v Speaker 2>advanced standing, a provisional certificate, or standard instructional certificate to

1284
01:15:52.720 --> 01:15:58.399
<v Speaker 2>complete a Commissioner of Education approved test of basic. Notice

1285
01:15:58.399 --> 01:16:02.039
<v Speaker 2>the emphasis I put on that word basic, reading, writing,

1286
01:16:02.119 --> 01:16:04.720
<v Speaker 2>and mathematic skills, including but not limited to, the practice

1287
01:16:04.760 --> 01:16:08.039
<v Speaker 2>Core Academic Skills for Educators tests in order to obtain

1288
01:16:08.039 --> 01:16:12.720
<v Speaker 2>a certificate of eligibility. So you can be an idiot

1289
01:16:13.399 --> 01:16:18.560
<v Speaker 2>and yet still teach a class that practices Core Academic

1290
01:16:18.640 --> 01:16:21.960
<v Speaker 2>Skills for Educators tests, which I didn't wasn't necessarily familiar with,

1291
01:16:22.039 --> 01:16:25.720
<v Speaker 2>but it's used in over forty states and territories in

1292
01:16:25.800 --> 01:16:29.359
<v Speaker 2>the United States. Includes questions on English and mathematics, as

1293
01:16:29.439 --> 01:16:34.079
<v Speaker 2>well as basic questions on specific subjects. According to Democratic

1294
01:16:34.119 --> 01:16:41.159
<v Speaker 2>State Senator Jim b To, who are his point? Obviously

1295
01:16:41.199 --> 01:16:43.399
<v Speaker 2>he is in favor of this. We need more teachers.

1296
01:16:43.520 --> 01:16:47.760
<v Speaker 2>This is the best way to get them. So not

1297
01:16:47.920 --> 01:16:50.399
<v Speaker 2>only are we advancing children who do not have the

1298
01:16:50.520 --> 01:16:54.239
<v Speaker 2>requisite skills in testing for reading, writing, and arithmetic, yet

1299
01:16:54.279 --> 01:16:56.279
<v Speaker 2>we'll move them on to the next grade. Now we're

1300
01:16:56.359 --> 01:17:00.920
<v Speaker 2>dumbing down the teachers, so probably less education going on

1301
01:17:00.960 --> 01:17:12.920
<v Speaker 2>in the room. H I'm sorry, that's just that's just

1302
01:17:13.159 --> 01:17:15.439
<v Speaker 2>is that an admission of defeat. Let's go to the phone,

1303
01:17:15.479 --> 01:17:18.439
<v Speaker 2>sit Wes Saie, Jim west Side, Jim, good to hear

1304
01:17:18.479 --> 01:17:20.039
<v Speaker 2>from your happy New year, My friend.

1305
01:17:20.600 --> 01:17:21.520
<v Speaker 14>In you too, Brian.

1306
01:17:21.920 --> 01:17:26.319
<v Speaker 15>Welcome back, buddy, Thank you, miss I appreciate you're dearly missed.

1307
01:17:26.960 --> 01:17:30.840
<v Speaker 15>But I'll give you a couple of positive things. Uh,

1308
01:17:31.199 --> 01:17:34.920
<v Speaker 15>with all this snow, our favorite street to pick on, Sunset,

1309
01:17:35.319 --> 01:17:40.560
<v Speaker 15>probably looks pretty good this morning. You can't you can't

1310
01:17:40.640 --> 01:17:43.880
<v Speaker 15>see the the big rude gibbots that are looks like

1311
01:17:43.960 --> 01:17:45.319
<v Speaker 15>a bomb hit that thing.

1312
01:17:46.279 --> 01:17:48.239
<v Speaker 2>Because it's probably it's probably a better road to be

1313
01:17:48.279 --> 01:17:50.680
<v Speaker 2>on because at least those those dibbots and the ruts

1314
01:17:50.720 --> 01:17:53.920
<v Speaker 2>and the giant poddles probably provide some measure of traction,

1315
01:17:55.039 --> 01:17:55.439
<v Speaker 2>which I.

1316
01:17:55.600 --> 01:17:58.119
<v Speaker 15>Guess if you don't get stuck in one of them

1317
01:17:58.399 --> 01:17:59.600
<v Speaker 15>eight foot deep holes.

1318
01:17:59.640 --> 01:18:00.960
<v Speaker 2>But true, yeah, there is that.

1319
01:18:02.359 --> 01:18:05.239
<v Speaker 15>By the way, a couple of things I watched, and

1320
01:18:05.359 --> 01:18:08.960
<v Speaker 15>I know it's stupid to watch, but Lincoln where he

1321
01:18:08.960 --> 01:18:11.079
<v Speaker 15>has that TV show that it comes on he films

1322
01:18:11.119 --> 01:18:13.600
<v Speaker 15>on Thursdays and shows on Sundays. And guess who the

1323
01:18:14.520 --> 01:18:16.239
<v Speaker 15>the person was that was on there for a half

1324
01:18:16.239 --> 01:18:18.359
<v Speaker 15>an hour the other day, our buddy Cecil Thomas.

1325
01:18:18.479 --> 01:18:19.800
<v Speaker 2>I knew you were going to say that.

1326
01:18:21.119 --> 01:18:23.720
<v Speaker 15>Surprisingly there was nothing mentioned about powers.

1327
01:18:23.760 --> 01:18:27.640
<v Speaker 2>Of course, of course, that's just that's sad that he

1328
01:18:27.680 --> 01:18:31.840
<v Speaker 2>would he would filew that that allegation against her without aid,

1329
01:18:33.319 --> 01:18:38.439
<v Speaker 2>without any factual basis to do so, someone should, you know, assume.

1330
01:18:39.399 --> 01:18:41.720
<v Speaker 15>I hope she does, and I hope this for some

1331
01:18:41.920 --> 01:18:43.399
<v Speaker 15>reason that this guy can.

1332
01:18:44.359 --> 01:18:45.119
<v Speaker 14>I don't know what they do.

1333
01:18:45.279 --> 01:18:47.279
<v Speaker 15>It's always a slap on the wrist in a matter

1334
01:18:47.279 --> 01:18:51.199
<v Speaker 15>of Democrat, Republic and independent no matter what. But I

1335
01:18:51.359 --> 01:18:54.239
<v Speaker 15>wish that they could recall this guy. He's such a clown.

1336
01:18:55.920 --> 01:18:57.680
<v Speaker 15>But I'll give you the best one, and I know

1337
01:18:57.720 --> 01:19:01.000
<v Speaker 15>you're gonna let me go. But our good friend and

1338
01:19:01.319 --> 01:19:04.840
<v Speaker 15>probably one of the best people we know besides Christopher Smitherman,

1339
01:19:05.359 --> 01:19:08.119
<v Speaker 15>Orlando Sonza, looks like he might be in line for

1340
01:19:08.239 --> 01:19:10.760
<v Speaker 15>the I don't know if it was the second District

1341
01:19:10.880 --> 01:19:12.560
<v Speaker 15>or the Southwest Ohio.

1342
01:19:14.600 --> 01:19:15.279
<v Speaker 8>You know what it is.

1343
01:19:16.159 --> 01:19:18.920
<v Speaker 15>I got a brain freeze this morning. Brian the attorney

1344
01:19:19.039 --> 01:19:20.319
<v Speaker 15>for Southwest.

1345
01:19:19.840 --> 01:19:26.520
<v Speaker 2>Ohio oh District attorney. The official title is district attorney.

1346
01:19:27.279 --> 01:19:27.600
<v Speaker 10>That's it.

1347
01:19:28.880 --> 01:19:29.720
<v Speaker 2>That'll be great.

1348
01:19:30.600 --> 01:19:32.680
<v Speaker 15>Is it that second District or whatever the heck? Like

1349
01:19:32.720 --> 01:19:34.119
<v Speaker 15>I said, I'll look it up. If I should have

1350
01:19:34.159 --> 01:19:34.800
<v Speaker 15>lift it up before.

1351
01:19:35.000 --> 01:19:38.039
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I hadn't seen anything about that. I did get

1352
01:19:38.079 --> 01:19:40.000
<v Speaker 2>word that Houston was the guy that was going to

1353
01:19:40.039 --> 01:19:42.880
<v Speaker 2>be selected to fill JD. Vans's seat. But that I

1354
01:19:43.000 --> 01:19:45.439
<v Speaker 2>suppose word has gotten out around that one already, but

1355
01:19:45.439 --> 01:19:47.239
<v Speaker 2>I didn't hear anything about it. Orlando Sons. I so

1356
01:19:47.319 --> 01:19:49.960
<v Speaker 2>appreciate you bringing to my attention. I got big hopes

1357
01:19:49.960 --> 01:19:51.720
<v Speaker 2>for that guy, big hopes for that guy.

1358
01:19:52.520 --> 01:19:54.720
<v Speaker 15>Well, we were texting back and forth a little bit

1359
01:19:54.760 --> 01:19:57.119
<v Speaker 15>the other day, and that's what it came out.

1360
01:19:57.199 --> 01:19:59.000
<v Speaker 4>That it's a good.

1361
01:19:58.960 --> 01:20:01.479
<v Speaker 15>Possibility he's gon and get that job, and it's not

1362
01:20:01.600 --> 01:20:04.399
<v Speaker 15>one of those jobs that it's next manned up, and

1363
01:20:04.560 --> 01:20:06.840
<v Speaker 15>he deserves it because he's been there longer or something

1364
01:20:06.920 --> 01:20:08.520
<v Speaker 15>like that. He deserves it because of.

1365
01:20:08.600 --> 01:20:09.920
<v Speaker 12>Who he is and what he does.

1366
01:20:10.199 --> 01:20:12.920
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, so former prosecutor going to give me.

1367
01:20:14.960 --> 01:20:17.279
<v Speaker 15>He deserves anything he can get, to be quite honest,

1368
01:20:17.319 --> 01:20:18.720
<v Speaker 15>and I know you'll agree with that one.

1369
01:20:19.000 --> 01:20:24.239
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, he's a terrific, terrific guy. And again he's just starting.

1370
01:20:24.880 --> 01:20:26.880
<v Speaker 2>I mean, I think down the road we're going to

1371
01:20:26.920 --> 01:20:28.880
<v Speaker 2>look back and you know, all of our predictions about

1372
01:20:28.960 --> 01:20:32.840
<v Speaker 2>Orlando Sons's success in the future will come true someday

1373
01:20:32.960 --> 01:20:38.199
<v Speaker 2>because again, he's demonstrably worthy of it, very competent, very intelligent,

1374
01:20:38.279 --> 01:20:41.520
<v Speaker 2>He's got an excellent background. It looks awesome on paper,

1375
01:20:41.600 --> 01:20:43.680
<v Speaker 2>and he's even better in person when you get a

1376
01:20:43.760 --> 01:20:46.039
<v Speaker 2>chance to talk to him. So I'll keep my fingers

1377
01:20:46.159 --> 01:20:46.560
<v Speaker 2>by the way.

1378
01:20:47.439 --> 01:20:49.439
<v Speaker 15>I will see Wednesday as long as we don't get

1379
01:20:49.439 --> 01:20:52.640
<v Speaker 15>about fourteen more feet of us snow. But the old

1380
01:20:52.720 --> 01:20:54.439
<v Speaker 15>Bronco can make it up to hill now.

1381
01:20:54.560 --> 01:20:57.000
<v Speaker 2>So yeah, if you are going to give me some

1382
01:20:57.159 --> 01:20:59.560
<v Speaker 2>lame excuse about not being able to manage the roads

1383
01:20:59.600 --> 01:21:01.520
<v Speaker 2>and that ruckster of yours, I was going to give

01:22:16.199 --> 01:22:18.359
<v Speaker 2>me while I was gone. And I appreciate the time

1404
01:22:18.960 --> 01:22:22.199
<v Speaker 2>with my family. Just such a wonderful, wonderful opportunity to

1405
01:22:22.319 --> 01:22:25.880
<v Speaker 2>sleep in and spent time with my family. I hope

1406
01:22:25.920 --> 01:22:28.279
<v Speaker 2>he had a wonderful Christmas or whatever holiday year is celebrating.

1407
01:22:28.319 --> 01:22:30.560
<v Speaker 2>I certainly did, and got to go over to the

1408
01:22:30.640 --> 01:22:32.600
<v Speaker 2>rifle range a few times with my new forty five

1409
01:22:32.680 --> 01:22:35.640
<v Speaker 2>seventy Marlin lover Action rifle and that thing is a

1410
01:22:35.960 --> 01:22:40.479
<v Speaker 2>blast to shoot. No pun intended anyhow, speaking of guns,

1411
01:22:40.920 --> 01:22:42.640
<v Speaker 2>and I wanted to because I got a big kick

1412
01:22:42.680 --> 01:22:45.199
<v Speaker 2>out of this article from the New York Post. It

1413
01:22:45.359 --> 01:22:47.359
<v Speaker 2>was New York Post, New York, Yeah, New York Post,

1414
01:22:49.640 --> 01:22:52.680
<v Speaker 2>and it serves it starts to prove my point over

1415
01:22:52.720 --> 01:22:56.479
<v Speaker 2>and over again that I've made many times. I know

1416
01:22:56.560 --> 01:22:59.439
<v Speaker 2>there's that more guns Less crime book that was written

1417
01:22:59.520 --> 01:23:02.840
<v Speaker 2>so long ago, still proves to be true. And if

1418
01:23:02.880 --> 01:23:06.720
<v Speaker 2>you personally feel threatened in some way, you believe that

1419
01:23:06.840 --> 01:23:09.640
<v Speaker 2>your life is in peril, or maybe in peril, it

1420
01:23:10.000 --> 01:23:11.600
<v Speaker 2>may be a good thing for you. On a firearm

1421
01:23:15.560 --> 01:23:18.680
<v Speaker 2>and jumping on board. The traditionally left leaning folks of

1422
01:23:18.720 --> 01:23:20.880
<v Speaker 2>America are now waking up to this reality as well,

1423
01:23:21.640 --> 01:23:28.840
<v Speaker 2>including gay and transgender liberals. Huh headline from Chris NSI

1424
01:23:29.439 --> 01:23:33.960
<v Speaker 2>LGBTQ liberals start arming themselves over baseless fear and it

1425
01:23:34.079 --> 01:23:38.520
<v Speaker 2>is baseless of being placed in concentration camps. Now, I

1426
01:23:38.560 --> 01:23:40.720
<v Speaker 2>don't know if you are so dumb you believe you

1427
01:23:40.760 --> 01:23:44.079
<v Speaker 2>might be placed in a concentration camp. Fine, We've been

1428
01:23:44.119 --> 01:23:46.199
<v Speaker 2>down that road before in this country, so I suppose

1429
01:23:46.319 --> 01:23:50.640
<v Speaker 2>history is a precedent for it. Apologies to the Japanese

1430
01:23:50.680 --> 01:23:52.039
<v Speaker 2>who are rounded up in spite of the fact that

1431
01:23:52.079 --> 01:23:54.720
<v Speaker 2>the American citizen placed in internment camps of World War two.

1432
01:23:54.800 --> 01:23:56.680
<v Speaker 2>That will be fd R and you can blame that

1433
01:23:56.840 --> 01:24:03.760
<v Speaker 2>leftist ignoring the conclusions of the two or three people

1434
01:24:03.880 --> 01:24:07.800
<v Speaker 2>that they interviewed for This was the Philadelphia Inquirer, as

1435
01:24:07.920 --> 01:24:12.600
<v Speaker 2>re reported by the New York Post. So the Philadelphia

1436
01:24:12.680 --> 01:24:17.520
<v Speaker 2>Inquirer on Sunday profiled several members of the emerging gun

1437
01:24:17.640 --> 01:24:21.520
<v Speaker 2>toting left who belonged to groups with names like Liberal

1438
01:24:21.920 --> 01:24:31.119
<v Speaker 2>Gun Club, the Socialist Rifle Association, and Pink Pistols. They

1439
01:24:31.159 --> 01:24:34.960
<v Speaker 2>point out the obvious precise figures regarding LGBTQ gun ownership

1440
01:24:35.000 --> 01:24:37.640
<v Speaker 2>are tough to ascertain given the small number of people

1441
01:24:37.720 --> 01:24:40.560
<v Speaker 2>they represent in terms of the collective population in society.

1442
01:24:41.560 --> 01:24:44.159
<v Speaker 2>The Liberal Gun Club, that's one of the organizations that

1443
01:24:44.199 --> 01:24:48.279
<v Speaker 2>spoke with the Philly Inquirer, said that it's received thousands

1444
01:24:48.359 --> 01:24:53.199
<v Speaker 2>of firearms training requests since the election, more than all

1445
01:24:53.239 --> 01:24:55.760
<v Speaker 2>of last year. Oh well, sorry, twenty twenty three combined

1446
01:24:55.760 --> 01:24:58.880
<v Speaker 2>two years ago, and about a quarter of them were

1447
01:24:58.920 --> 01:25:02.399
<v Speaker 2>from those in the lgbt community, So thousands reduced down

1448
01:25:02.479 --> 01:25:05.079
<v Speaker 2>to one quarter of the so called thousands. So you

1449
01:25:05.159 --> 01:25:06.840
<v Speaker 2>do the math on that and try to figure out

1450
01:25:06.880 --> 01:25:09.880
<v Speaker 2>how many people that actually means. But the reason I

1451
01:25:10.039 --> 01:25:13.920
<v Speaker 2>bring this up they spoke with a twenty four year

1452
01:25:13.960 --> 01:25:17.000
<v Speaker 2>old what they describe as trans woman who recently decided

1453
01:25:17.039 --> 01:25:19.720
<v Speaker 2>to purchase a gun, identified by the news outlet only

1454
01:25:19.840 --> 01:25:24.720
<v Speaker 2>as the letter A. This twenty four year old trans

1455
01:25:24.760 --> 01:25:27.079
<v Speaker 2>woman said three months before the election, that's when the

1456
01:25:27.199 --> 01:25:32.600
<v Speaker 2>alarm bells started to ring. Minorities that are armed are

1457
01:25:32.680 --> 01:25:40.520
<v Speaker 2>more difficult to legally oppress, expressing relief that she will

1458
01:25:40.560 --> 01:25:42.359
<v Speaker 2>be ready to fight back in her words, in the

1459
01:25:42.479 --> 01:25:48.520
<v Speaker 2>event of hate crimes or terrorist attacks. Well, isn't that

1460
01:25:48.840 --> 01:25:56.600
<v Speaker 2>the point? If you live in a terrible neighborhood, if

1461
01:25:56.600 --> 01:25:59.279
<v Speaker 2>it's crime late and then you should be more likely

1462
01:25:59.399 --> 01:26:01.439
<v Speaker 2>to own a farm than someone who lives in a

1463
01:26:01.479 --> 01:26:04.239
<v Speaker 2>more stable environment. If you're part of a group that

1464
01:26:04.399 --> 01:26:08.800
<v Speaker 2>might be under legitimate hate crime or terrorist attack, it

1465
01:26:08.960 --> 01:26:15.000
<v Speaker 2>could be that that firearm could save your life. If

1466
01:26:15.039 --> 01:26:18.039
<v Speaker 2>you're in a situation where you're under grievous threat, under

1467
01:26:18.079 --> 01:26:20.159
<v Speaker 2>threat of grievous bodily harm or death, you have the

1468
01:26:20.239 --> 01:26:24.079
<v Speaker 2>right to use deadly force to defend yourself. Doesn't matter

1469
01:26:24.199 --> 01:26:27.439
<v Speaker 2>whether you're gay or straight, or member of minority community

1470
01:26:27.520 --> 01:26:30.399
<v Speaker 2>or member of a majority community. If you believe you

1471
01:26:30.479 --> 01:26:33.720
<v Speaker 2>are facing that threat, then yes, it's maybe the appropriate

1472
01:26:33.760 --> 01:26:38.680
<v Speaker 2>thing to do is arm yourself. The Philadelphia chapter of

1473
01:26:38.720 --> 01:26:44.760
<v Speaker 2>the Socialist Rifle Association told the Philly Inquirer that it's

1474
01:26:44.760 --> 01:26:47.760
<v Speaker 2>seen a surge of paid membership and its gun safety

1475
01:26:47.800 --> 01:26:49.640
<v Speaker 2>class has been filling up so fast it had to

1476
01:26:49.640 --> 01:26:54.960
<v Speaker 2>add more fine. The Delaware Valley chapter of gay gun

1477
01:26:55.039 --> 01:27:01.039
<v Speaker 2>group Pink Pistols, which goes by the slow Hogan Armed

1478
01:27:01.199 --> 01:27:07.479
<v Speaker 2>Gays Don't get bashed, made a similar comment to the paper.

1479
01:27:07.560 --> 01:27:10.119
<v Speaker 2>They've been inundated with inquiries from people seeking firearms training.

1480
01:27:10.199 --> 01:27:12.680
<v Speaker 2>Group founded in the year two thousand after an article

1481
01:27:12.800 --> 01:27:16.520
<v Speaker 2>was published in Salon by someone named Jonathan Rausch in

1482
01:27:16.560 --> 01:27:20.920
<v Speaker 2>which he said homosexuals should embark on organized efforts to

1483
01:27:21.000 --> 01:27:24.600
<v Speaker 2>become comfortable with guns, learn to use them safely, and

1484
01:27:24.840 --> 01:27:34.079
<v Speaker 2>carry them. Well amen to that. Wake Forest University sociology

1485
01:27:34.159 --> 01:27:38.319
<v Speaker 2>professor David Yamain, quoted in the article author of Gun Curious,

1486
01:27:39.399 --> 01:27:43.000
<v Speaker 2>told the Filly Inquired that a cultural shift in gun

1487
01:27:43.039 --> 01:27:45.840
<v Speaker 2>ownership is underway in America and that minority groups, including

1488
01:27:45.880 --> 01:27:48.359
<v Speaker 2>gay people, have led the way among the neophied gun

1489
01:27:48.399 --> 01:27:51.159
<v Speaker 2>owners since twenty twenty. Quote. It was a period of

1490
01:27:51.279 --> 01:27:56.079
<v Speaker 2>tremendous social unrest and social uncertainty, and a large number

1491
01:27:56.119 --> 01:27:58.840
<v Speaker 2>of people in the United States, under those conditions took

1492
01:27:58.880 --> 01:28:02.680
<v Speaker 2>to firearms to re established some sense of safety and security. Well,

1493
01:28:02.760 --> 01:28:10.000
<v Speaker 2>welcome to the club. That's the point of it for anyone.

1494
01:28:11.359 --> 01:28:13.479
<v Speaker 2>We live in a very diverse country. We have freedoms

1495
01:28:13.479 --> 01:28:15.520
<v Speaker 2>and liberties, and nobody else enjoys, so you're gonna have

1496
01:28:15.600 --> 01:28:18.880
<v Speaker 2>a very diverse community. We've got one any member that

1497
01:28:19.039 --> 01:28:22.439
<v Speaker 2>any part of society that is under greater threat than

1498
01:28:22.439 --> 01:28:25.439
<v Speaker 2>another has a much greater argument for getting out and

1499
01:28:25.600 --> 01:28:29.439
<v Speaker 2>learning how to use a firearm and getting the skill

1500
01:28:29.520 --> 01:28:41.159
<v Speaker 2>sets necessary to operate a confidently and accurately. Some guy

1501
01:28:41.239 --> 01:28:45.640
<v Speaker 2>named Matthew Thompson from Oakland told the Philly inquire he

1502
01:28:45.720 --> 01:28:47.800
<v Speaker 2>was inspired by his first gun after the twenty sixteen

1503
01:28:47.880 --> 01:28:50.960
<v Speaker 2>mass shooting at Pulse, which is a gay nightclub in Orlando, Florida.

1504
01:28:50.960 --> 01:28:54.319
<v Speaker 2>You remember that one forty nine people killed, the worst

1505
01:28:54.359 --> 01:28:56.960
<v Speaker 2>mass shooting in US history, carried out by a homegrown

1506
01:28:57.199 --> 01:29:04.720
<v Speaker 2>Islamic terrorist sympathizer named Omar a Teen. Interestingly enough, at

1507
01:29:04.760 --> 01:29:07.840
<v Speaker 2>the time, then President Barack Obama and presidential candidate Donald

1508
01:29:07.840 --> 01:29:10.239
<v Speaker 2>Trump denounced the horrific slaughters a direct attack on the

1509
01:29:10.359 --> 01:29:14.239
<v Speaker 2>LGBT community. However, you wait till the evidence comes out,

1510
01:29:14.279 --> 01:29:16.800
<v Speaker 2>you find out things aren't necessarily as they see. Apparently,

1511
01:29:16.880 --> 01:29:20.920
<v Speaker 2>evidence unearthed in the years after the murders indicate that

1512
01:29:21.000 --> 01:29:23.760
<v Speaker 2>this Omar Mateen guy had no idea that Paulse was

1513
01:29:23.800 --> 01:29:25.720
<v Speaker 2>even a gay nightclub when he went in and started

1514
01:29:25.760 --> 01:29:33.880
<v Speaker 2>opening fire. Joe, can you help me out on this one?

1515
01:29:34.479 --> 01:29:36.960
<v Speaker 2>That Thompson guy that I mentioned, Matthew Thompson of Oakland,

1516
01:29:39.680 --> 01:29:43.479
<v Speaker 2>he told the Philly Choir that he writes, he writes,

1517
01:29:43.560 --> 01:29:48.199
<v Speaker 2>travels and writes, and travels around the country to attend

1518
01:29:48.920 --> 01:29:55.560
<v Speaker 2>quote leather and bear events close quote you no idea

1519
01:29:55.600 --> 01:29:57.680
<v Speaker 2>what I'm talking about, man, darn it. I was really

1520
01:29:57.720 --> 01:29:58.880
<v Speaker 2>hoping he might be able to help me out on

1521
01:29:58.960 --> 01:30:01.640
<v Speaker 2>that one. And he said, the people I've been seeing

1522
01:30:01.680 --> 01:30:03.199
<v Speaker 2>on the left and the gay people who are out

1523
01:30:03.279 --> 01:30:06.079
<v Speaker 2>purchasing guns for the first time, it's all about self

1524
01:30:06.199 --> 01:30:09.720
<v Speaker 2>defense and fear. We're not looking to arm up and

1525
01:30:09.800 --> 01:30:11.920
<v Speaker 2>storm the capitol. We just don't want to be put

1526
01:30:12.119 --> 01:30:16.079
<v Speaker 2>in concentration camps. That's where that one random musing from

1527
01:30:16.119 --> 01:30:19.600
<v Speaker 2>this leather and bear event following guy came from. So

1528
01:30:19.840 --> 01:30:22.199
<v Speaker 2>he's the one guy that was quoted in the article

1529
01:30:22.239 --> 01:30:29.119
<v Speaker 2>that I actually believed that might happen. But it's nice

1530
01:30:29.119 --> 01:30:30.960
<v Speaker 2>to see the left wake up to the reality it

1531
01:30:31.119 --> 01:30:34.640
<v Speaker 2>is for your own personal defense and safety in situations

1532
01:30:34.720 --> 01:30:40.359
<v Speaker 2>that might justify your using it. They're not out forming militias,

1533
01:30:40.359 --> 01:30:43.479
<v Speaker 2>they're not planning on attacking the capitol. Fine, I wouldn't

1534
01:30:43.479 --> 01:30:46.000
<v Speaker 2>expect it anyway. They're not planning on doing anything other

1535
01:30:46.119 --> 01:30:49.720
<v Speaker 2>than getting the skill sets and the hardware necessary to

1536
01:30:49.840 --> 01:30:54.000
<v Speaker 2>defend themselves in the event their fears legitimate or not

1537
01:30:56.680 --> 01:31:03.119
<v Speaker 2>manifest themselves in real life. So welcome to the club.

1538
01:31:05.520 --> 01:31:05.880
<v Speaker 4>That way.

1539
01:31:06.039 --> 01:31:09.279
<v Speaker 2>If there's some gay bashing, fill in the blank with

1540
01:31:09.399 --> 01:31:12.600
<v Speaker 2>your favorite FCC non compliant descriptive word, and I could

1541
01:31:12.600 --> 01:31:13.920
<v Speaker 2>come up with a bunch of them, because I don't

1542
01:31:13.960 --> 01:31:17.399
<v Speaker 2>have anything any problem with anyone being gay at all.

1543
01:31:17.680 --> 01:31:24.479
<v Speaker 2>It's your life, you live it, but you too, if

1544
01:31:24.520 --> 01:31:28.319
<v Speaker 2>you live under a legitimate threat or even a illegitimate

1545
01:31:28.399 --> 01:31:31.800
<v Speaker 2>threat or concern, it may give you peace of mind

1546
01:31:31.920 --> 01:31:35.880
<v Speaker 2>and comfort. That's why I'm an advocate for firearms ownership,

1547
01:31:35.920 --> 01:31:38.119
<v Speaker 2>even though the main reason the Second Amendment is there

1548
01:31:38.199 --> 01:31:41.560
<v Speaker 2>is because our founding fathers had to defend themselves and

1549
01:31:41.640 --> 01:31:45.560
<v Speaker 2>against an oppressive government that was well a bit rapacious

1550
01:31:45.640 --> 01:31:48.680
<v Speaker 2>with taxation and did not allow any representation in return

1551
01:31:48.840 --> 01:31:53.800
<v Speaker 2>for stealing from the colonies. And look how that turned out.

1552
01:31:54.880 --> 01:31:57.359
<v Speaker 2>Christopher Smithman is up next with the smith vent allqueued

1553
01:31:57.439 --> 01:32:00.600
<v Speaker 2>up looking forward to having him back on every Monday

1554
01:32:00.840 --> 01:32:04.479
<v Speaker 2>this year. Oh and look, perfect opportunity for me to

1555
01:32:04.520 --> 01:32:06.600
<v Speaker 2>recommend my friends at twenty two three on Route forty

1556
01:32:06.640 --> 01:32:08.760
<v Speaker 2>two between Mason eleven. It's amazing how that lined up

1557
01:32:08.760 --> 01:32:12.960
<v Speaker 2>with that article I just read, Great Firearms Shop. I

1558
01:32:13.039 --> 01:32:15.319
<v Speaker 2>tell you what. The owners, Wendy and Jeff are the

1559
01:32:15.600 --> 01:32:19.560
<v Speaker 2>cream of the crop human beings. They're wonderful people. They're knowledgeable,

1560
01:32:19.640 --> 01:32:22.319
<v Speaker 2>they know everything there is to know. And that's obviously

1561
01:32:22.399 --> 01:32:25.079
<v Speaker 2>where I got my UH forty five to seventy lever

1562
01:32:25.199 --> 01:32:28.800
<v Speaker 2>action Barlin for my Christmas present. Of course I bought

1563
01:32:28.840 --> 01:32:31.119
<v Speaker 2>it there. I called up Wenday. They didn't have one

1564
01:32:31.159 --> 01:32:33.359
<v Speaker 2>in stock. Guess what. A day later, guess what, we

1565
01:32:33.479 --> 01:32:34.960
<v Speaker 2>got one in stock. Brian. You want to come out

1566
01:32:35.000 --> 01:32:36.600
<v Speaker 2>and pick it up, of course I do. So head

1567
01:32:36.640 --> 01:32:38.479
<v Speaker 2>on over to Route forty two between Mason and eleven

1568
01:32:38.560 --> 01:32:42.720
<v Speaker 2>and and enjoy my Christmas present a lot. But whatever

1569
01:32:42.760 --> 01:32:45.920
<v Speaker 2>you're looking for, they probably have it, whether it's ammunition

1570
01:32:46.319 --> 01:32:49.079
<v Speaker 2>or any kind of firearms, handguns, long guns. They have

<v Speaker 2>I appreciate it. RESTful is a great word.

1598
01:34:06.439 --> 01:34:06.560
<v Speaker 5>Man.

1599
01:34:06.640 --> 01:34:10.159
<v Speaker 2>I'm telling you, it was so awesome sleeping in. There's

1600
01:34:10.239 --> 01:34:13.359
<v Speaker 2>just nothing like sleeping in, because I again in my comment,

1601
01:34:13.399 --> 01:34:15.239
<v Speaker 2>all the time I've been at this my nineteenth year

1602
01:34:15.279 --> 01:34:17.520
<v Speaker 2>on radio, and I still haven't gotten used to the

1603
01:34:17.600 --> 01:34:21.560
<v Speaker 2>two thirty alarm, So sleeping until eight thirty, I've stuffed

1604
01:34:21.600 --> 01:34:24.279
<v Speaker 2>at the nine thirty one couple of mornings. Oh my god,

1605
01:34:24.359 --> 01:34:26.439
<v Speaker 2>it was in heaven, absolute heaven.

1606
01:34:28.000 --> 01:34:29.600
<v Speaker 14>So you did you did not? You didn't know what

1607
01:34:29.800 --> 01:34:29.960
<v Speaker 14>to do?

1608
01:34:30.319 --> 01:34:32.600
<v Speaker 2>No, No, I didn't. I laid around a lot, you

1609
01:34:32.720 --> 01:34:36.920
<v Speaker 2>asked my wife, I didn't.

1610
01:34:36.960 --> 01:34:37.600
<v Speaker 14>I deserved it.

1611
01:34:37.760 --> 01:34:40.119
<v Speaker 2>Well, I appreciated Christopher. It's nice that you feel that way.

1612
01:34:40.199 --> 01:34:41.640
<v Speaker 2>And I'm not sure that she would argue with it.

1613
01:34:41.720 --> 01:34:44.079
<v Speaker 2>She did have a very very short honeydoo list, and

1614
01:34:44.159 --> 01:34:46.359
<v Speaker 2>I did manage to accomplish what was on the list,

1615
01:34:46.479 --> 01:34:49.479
<v Speaker 2>and so beyond that, it was great. How did you

1616
01:34:49.520 --> 01:34:51.840
<v Speaker 2>have a nice Christmas holiday season there, Christopher?

1617
01:34:53.000 --> 01:34:53.680
<v Speaker 10>I really did?

1618
01:34:54.520 --> 01:34:57.680
<v Speaker 14>I think that the big news was meeting my grandson.

1619
01:34:58.119 --> 01:35:03.159
<v Speaker 14>You did, my f young Christopher and his lovely wife,

1620
01:35:03.319 --> 01:35:07.960
<v Speaker 14>My bill uh came home and uh, you know, brought

1621
01:35:08.319 --> 01:35:11.560
<v Speaker 14>brought Christopher. The third it was bittersweet. You know, I

1622
01:35:11.680 --> 01:35:14.560
<v Speaker 14>want to be honest about that, because they're they're widows

1623
01:35:14.600 --> 01:35:18.680
<v Speaker 14>and widowers who are listening like your mom, and all

1624
01:35:18.760 --> 01:35:22.520
<v Speaker 14>of us are on this continuum. But you know, the

1625
01:35:22.600 --> 01:35:27.479
<v Speaker 14>first grandchild and meeting him and uh, you know, not

1626
01:35:27.680 --> 01:35:31.960
<v Speaker 14>having my wife there was it was definitely a challenge.

1627
01:35:32.000 --> 01:35:34.640
<v Speaker 14>It was a challenge for my for my oldest son

1628
01:35:34.920 --> 01:35:39.640
<v Speaker 14>and for all my kids. But having said that, it

1629
01:35:39.800 --> 01:35:43.199
<v Speaker 14>was a wonderful gift. It was the best Christmas gift

1630
01:35:43.359 --> 01:35:47.920
<v Speaker 14>ever to meet my to meet my grandson, Christopher the third.

1631
01:35:48.119 --> 01:35:49.439
<v Speaker 2>Well, you got to send me a picture of that

1632
01:35:49.560 --> 01:35:52.239
<v Speaker 2>little guy because I want to see that. I'm sure

1633
01:35:52.279 --> 01:35:54.119
<v Speaker 2>it's just a beautiful, beautiful baby.

1634
01:35:55.800 --> 01:35:59.680
<v Speaker 14>Absolutely, I will send you a picture. Let me first

1635
01:36:00.199 --> 01:36:03.439
<v Speaker 14>just just pivot and just say everybody stay safe. You

1636
01:36:03.479 --> 01:36:06.359
<v Speaker 14>know they're listening to your show. You know, having been

1637
01:36:06.399 --> 01:36:09.920
<v Speaker 14>the vice mayor of the City of Cincinnati, it's critical

1638
01:36:09.960 --> 01:36:13.039
<v Speaker 14>that people stay off the roads so that our crews

1639
01:36:13.119 --> 01:36:16.399
<v Speaker 14>out there can do their job. You know, they have families,

1640
01:36:16.479 --> 01:36:20.000
<v Speaker 14>they're trying to, you know, get home safe. They've been

1641
01:36:20.079 --> 01:36:23.359
<v Speaker 14>out there working all night, and you just want to

1642
01:36:23.399 --> 01:36:26.119
<v Speaker 14>make sure that you you heed those warnings and be

1643
01:36:26.319 --> 01:36:30.399
<v Speaker 14>very respectful as the men and women across this county,

1644
01:36:30.640 --> 01:36:36.159
<v Speaker 14>across our state, across our jurisdiction, whether it's Kentucky, Indiana, Ohio.

1645
01:36:36.279 --> 01:36:39.920
<v Speaker 14>You get the picture that you know, we are respecting

1646
01:36:40.039 --> 01:36:43.239
<v Speaker 14>those warnings so that you don't get stranded out there

1647
01:36:43.479 --> 01:36:46.359
<v Speaker 14>and then you become now a part of the problem

1648
01:36:47.199 --> 01:36:48.399
<v Speaker 14>and not a part of the solution.

1649
01:36:48.720 --> 01:36:50.760
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, it's slick out there, there's no doubt about it.

1650
01:36:50.840 --> 01:36:54.119
<v Speaker 2>And someone called this morning was being a little critical,

1651
01:36:54.239 --> 01:36:56.600
<v Speaker 2>not overly critical, but I know we all have our

1652
01:36:56.680 --> 01:36:59.159
<v Speaker 2>beefs with the road cruise and things from time to time.

1653
01:36:59.239 --> 01:37:01.399
<v Speaker 2>But you know, we live in a region that doesn't

1654
01:37:02.000 --> 01:37:05.840
<v Speaker 2>often get inundated like this, and there's only so much

1655
01:37:05.960 --> 01:37:08.760
<v Speaker 2>resources you can spend and pay for and have parked,

1656
01:37:08.800 --> 01:37:11.239
<v Speaker 2>you know, in some lots somewhere that aren't used that

1657
01:37:11.439 --> 01:37:15.279
<v Speaker 2>often to keep up with and deal with a perpetual

1658
01:37:15.359 --> 01:37:17.239
<v Speaker 2>snow fall. I mean, they're took another one to five

1659
01:37:17.359 --> 01:37:20.359
<v Speaker 2>inches during the day. So roads that they went over,

1660
01:37:20.600 --> 01:37:22.800
<v Speaker 2>which Montgomery Road as I came in this morning, had

1661
01:37:22.800 --> 01:37:25.560
<v Speaker 2>already been plowed once, but a good three plus more

1662
01:37:25.640 --> 01:37:28.760
<v Speaker 2>inches had fallen on it since the first time they

1663
01:37:28.880 --> 01:37:30.359
<v Speaker 2>plowed it. Now I don't know how often they're going

1664
01:37:30.399 --> 01:37:32.159
<v Speaker 2>to go up and down that road, but there's only

1665
01:37:32.279 --> 01:37:34.560
<v Speaker 2>so much you can do. When the snow continues to fall,

1666
01:37:34.640 --> 01:37:36.960
<v Speaker 2>there's no way they can keep up with everything that quickly.

1667
01:37:37.079 --> 01:37:39.800
<v Speaker 2>So you know, I got a couple a little slack

1668
01:37:41.239 --> 01:37:43.279
<v Speaker 2>it was. Did you ever deal with that when you

1669
01:37:43.359 --> 01:37:45.600
<v Speaker 2>were vice mayor did you ever have to deal specifically

1670
01:37:45.680 --> 01:37:49.079
<v Speaker 2>with snow plowing issues. Was that something you're even involved

1671
01:37:49.119 --> 01:37:51.640
<v Speaker 2>with at all, Christopher, because I know people are lack

1672
01:37:51.720 --> 01:37:53.640
<v Speaker 2>familiarity with the logistics behind it.

1673
01:37:54.840 --> 01:37:58.680
<v Speaker 14>Yeah, definitely was involved with it. And you're right. I mean, look,

1674
01:37:58.720 --> 01:38:01.359
<v Speaker 14>a snow like this for so of our areas we

1675
01:38:01.520 --> 01:38:05.159
<v Speaker 14>haven't seen for some parts of the country since the

1676
01:38:05.279 --> 01:38:08.800
<v Speaker 14>nineteen hundreds, So this is a very unusual snowfall for

1677
01:38:08.880 --> 01:38:13.319
<v Speaker 14>our area, and it's difficult to prepare for that, sometimes

1678
01:38:13.439 --> 01:38:15.680
<v Speaker 14>meaning the number of trucks out there. But what happens

1679
01:38:16.119 --> 01:38:19.680
<v Speaker 14>here is we kind of send out a request for

1680
01:38:20.239 --> 01:38:24.159
<v Speaker 14>you know, MSD workers, anybody out there who can operate

1681
01:38:24.199 --> 01:38:26.039
<v Speaker 14>a truck to get them out there, paying a lot

1682
01:38:26.079 --> 01:38:30.279
<v Speaker 14>of overtime to get those roads salted and get them plowed.

1683
01:38:30.720 --> 01:38:35.680
<v Speaker 14>It is a difficult dance because of the inconsistent city.

1684
01:38:35.760 --> 01:38:38.279
<v Speaker 14>We're not like Buffalo, where you know, Buffalo City there

1685
01:38:38.319 --> 01:38:40.640
<v Speaker 14>with an army of trucks of salt, you know what,

1686
01:38:40.960 --> 01:38:45.960
<v Speaker 14>they know it's coming. That's not true for Cincinnati. Where

1687
01:38:46.239 --> 01:38:48.640
<v Speaker 14>where I think it's fair to be very critical of

1688
01:38:48.720 --> 01:38:52.039
<v Speaker 14>the City of Cincinnati are the potholes in the condition

1689
01:38:52.239 --> 01:38:55.880
<v Speaker 14>of our roads and making sure that those things are fixed. Right,

1690
01:38:56.000 --> 01:38:58.600
<v Speaker 14>So it's not you know, you can't say we're throwing

1691
01:38:58.760 --> 01:39:02.279
<v Speaker 14>salt in and tearing up the roads when we didn't

1692
01:39:02.319 --> 01:39:05.359
<v Speaker 14>have a snow. But then we have potholes and roads

1693
01:39:05.399 --> 01:39:08.119
<v Speaker 14>that have and streets that have not been fixed, you know,

1694
01:39:08.279 --> 01:39:11.680
<v Speaker 14>for fifty years while we're building street cars. Right, we're

1695
01:39:11.760 --> 01:39:15.680
<v Speaker 14>just distracted on kind of the basics of what the

1696
01:39:15.840 --> 01:39:19.199
<v Speaker 14>city is there to do, or debating on the floor

1697
01:39:19.279 --> 01:39:24.279
<v Speaker 14>of council what you know, the merits of Israel and Hamas, right.

1698
01:39:24.359 --> 01:39:28.239
<v Speaker 14>I mean, city councils sometimes get so distracted. And I

1699
01:39:28.319 --> 01:39:31.199
<v Speaker 14>think that's what frustrates the caller when you look at

1700
01:39:31.239 --> 01:39:33.000
<v Speaker 14>city Hall, they said, what are they talking about? Whether

1701
01:39:33.079 --> 01:39:35.680
<v Speaker 14>it doesn't sound like they were talking about the preparedness

1702
01:39:36.279 --> 01:39:39.079
<v Speaker 14>of the snow that was coming in. And that really

1703
01:39:39.199 --> 01:39:41.720
<v Speaker 14>ties me into and I know, we'll go to break

1704
01:39:42.159 --> 01:39:47.039
<v Speaker 14>what happened in Louisiana with this terracet attack, And the

1705
01:39:47.159 --> 01:39:50.439
<v Speaker 14>question is our city needs to be prepared for these

1706
01:39:50.600 --> 01:39:52.760
<v Speaker 14>kinds of things, and what are they doing? What are

1707
01:39:52.800 --> 01:39:55.479
<v Speaker 14>they talking about? You know, because this is the time

1708
01:39:55.560 --> 01:39:58.640
<v Speaker 14>to get ready. We've got doras all over the city.

1709
01:39:58.720 --> 01:40:01.079
<v Speaker 14>People are going to be out, going to be drinking

1710
01:40:01.199 --> 01:40:04.560
<v Speaker 14>beers in very public places. Are we going to be

1711
01:40:04.680 --> 01:40:09.840
<v Speaker 14>ready for what we just saw there? And I think

1712
01:40:09.920 --> 01:40:15.279
<v Speaker 14>these are important conversations. They're not sexy, but they're critically important.

1713
01:40:15.640 --> 01:40:20.399
<v Speaker 14>Are we going to have barricades up that are still

1714
01:40:20.680 --> 01:40:24.199
<v Speaker 14>that are concrete, making sure that the citizens of Cincinnati

1715
01:40:24.239 --> 01:40:27.680
<v Speaker 14>when they come downtown and participate, or they're in some

1716
01:40:27.840 --> 01:40:31.640
<v Speaker 14>of our neighborhoods that have doors, that those aren't soft targets.

1717
01:40:31.680 --> 01:40:35.079
<v Speaker 14>Brion Thomas, That's what worries me more about what's happening

1718
01:40:35.119 --> 01:40:38.199
<v Speaker 14>at city Hall. They're distractions from the things that they

1719
01:40:38.279 --> 01:40:39.439
<v Speaker 14>really should be talking about.

1720
01:40:39.600 --> 01:40:41.239
<v Speaker 2>And isn't it a sad thing that we even have

1721
01:40:41.359 --> 01:40:43.520
<v Speaker 2>to talk about something like that? But look, it's happened

1722
01:40:43.600 --> 01:40:46.000
<v Speaker 2>all over the world, I mean Europe, it's happened a

1723
01:40:46.039 --> 01:40:49.479
<v Speaker 2>bunch of times. Is obviously happen here now The carnage

1724
01:40:49.560 --> 01:40:52.800
<v Speaker 2>is devastating and part of the basic preparedness of any

1725
01:40:52.840 --> 01:40:54.840
<v Speaker 2>city is to be able to manage functions like that

1726
01:40:54.960 --> 01:40:57.039
<v Speaker 2>and keep the citizens safe. We will continue on this

1727
01:40:57.199 --> 01:41:01.199
<v Speaker 2>topic with Christopher Smithman doing the Smither vent and first

1728

1734
01:41:18.840 --> 01:41:21.520

1735
01:41:21.520 --> 01:41:23.399
<v Speaker 2>getting ready to expire, having to do an end to

1736
01:41:23.560 --> 01:41:25.840
<v Speaker 2>end check on that and see if they can find

1737
01:41:25.880 --> 01:41:28.800
<v Speaker 2>things that your dealer can fix for free once it's

1738
01:41:28.840 --> 01:41:32.439
<v Speaker 2>out of warranty. Foreign Exchange Westchester location is the place

01:41:39.800 --> 01:41:43.840

1745
01:41:48.840 --> 01:41:54.560
<v Speaker 2>to Foreign Exchange tomorrow. It's making noises his responsibility now,

1746
01:41:54.640 --> 01:41:55.960
<v Speaker 2>but I know he's going to save money. And the

1747

01:43:30.920 --> 01:43:32.399
<v Speaker 2>Monday if you try to make it so anyway and

1779
01:43:32.640 --> 01:43:35.239
<v Speaker 2>try to stay off the road. But it's a great

1780
01:43:35.279 --> 01:43:36.760
<v Speaker 2>day to you. Listened to fifty five Case Morning to

1781
01:43:36.760 --> 01:43:39.159
<v Speaker 2>Show at this time because we're talking to Christopher Smithland

1782
01:43:39.159 --> 01:43:42.159
<v Speaker 2>getting the smither vent. Christopher, you have the floor, my friend.

1783
01:43:43.479 --> 01:43:47.880
<v Speaker 14>Look Brian, we've got the certification of the presidential election today,

1784
01:43:49.079 --> 01:43:53.800
<v Speaker 14>which is going to be historic. And I'm so glad

1785
01:43:53.880 --> 01:43:56.640
<v Speaker 14>that the Republicans got it together last week. I know

1786
01:43:56.800 --> 01:44:00.119
<v Speaker 14>you are, and most of America is, and we and

1787
01:44:00.239 --> 01:44:02.960
<v Speaker 14>have this big fight over who the speaker of the House,

1788
01:44:03.439 --> 01:44:05.880
<v Speaker 14>so that then today they wouldn't be able to certify

1789
01:44:05.960 --> 01:44:09.760
<v Speaker 14>the election. Now. But as we march into Friday, right,

1790
01:44:09.920 --> 01:44:13.479
<v Speaker 14>and you see what Judge Merchant is doing in New York,

1791
01:44:14.119 --> 01:44:19.760
<v Speaker 14>meaning as a former politician, look just calling ball's ball.

1792
01:44:19.920 --> 01:44:26.319
<v Speaker 14>Strike strikes that this judge continues to try to inject

1793
01:44:26.479 --> 01:44:33.840
<v Speaker 14>himself in the federal presidential election. We talked about law fair.

1794
01:44:34.399 --> 01:44:37.119
<v Speaker 14>This is another example of that, and I want the

1795
01:44:37.279 --> 01:44:41.880
<v Speaker 14>public to understand that this is just a sham and

1796
01:44:42.039 --> 01:44:46.319
<v Speaker 14>the goal of the judge is to embarrass the president

1797
01:44:48.079 --> 01:44:53.079
<v Speaker 14>by defining him as a felon as he goes into

1798
01:44:53.439 --> 01:44:56.520
<v Speaker 14>his inauguration on the twentieth. And so what you'll see

1799
01:44:56.560 --> 01:45:01.439
<v Speaker 14>the liberal papers doing, Brian Thomas hit signs are Trump

1800
01:45:01.680 --> 01:45:05.880
<v Speaker 14>is a felon because he now has been sentenced, and

1801
01:45:06.039 --> 01:45:09.319
<v Speaker 14>they won't discuss about the merits of the case or

1802
01:45:09.399 --> 01:45:13.319
<v Speaker 14>whether he absolutely will win this case on appill. The

1803
01:45:13.479 --> 01:45:16.560
<v Speaker 14>objective here is at the time of his swearing in

1804
01:45:16.680 --> 01:45:19.520
<v Speaker 14>on the twentieth, for the liberal media to have the

1805
01:45:19.640 --> 01:45:26.720
<v Speaker 14>talking point that this Manhattan DA prosecutor brags who then

1806
01:45:26.960 --> 01:45:31.399
<v Speaker 14>worked with this judge in New York in Manhattan, with

1807
01:45:31.520 --> 01:45:36.840
<v Speaker 14>this very liberal jury, has convicted Trump on things that

1808
01:45:37.000 --> 01:45:40.640
<v Speaker 14>most people said should never have been brought. But now

1809
01:45:40.800 --> 01:45:44.399
<v Speaker 14>on this coming Friday, he's going to sentence him by

1810
01:45:44.600 --> 01:45:48.159
<v Speaker 14>video conference, and he's going to say, no sentence, no

1811
01:45:48.399 --> 01:45:51.399
<v Speaker 14>jail time, public It has nothing to do with that.

1812
01:45:51.720 --> 01:45:55.560
<v Speaker 14>This is a judge that is injecting himself in a

1813
01:45:55.760 --> 01:46:00.840
<v Speaker 14>presidential election, attempting to embarrass the president those who voted

1814
01:46:00.880 --> 01:46:04.600
<v Speaker 14>for him, seventy six million people, winning the popular vote,

1815
01:46:04.640 --> 01:46:07.960
<v Speaker 14>the electoral vote. And now they want to say, for

1816
01:46:08.079 --> 01:46:10.359
<v Speaker 14>the first time in the history of the United States

1817
01:46:10.399 --> 01:46:14.520
<v Speaker 14>of America, on January twentieth, we are now swearing in

1818
01:46:14.920 --> 01:46:18.079
<v Speaker 14>for president someone who is a convicted feller. Yes, mat

1819
01:46:18.359 --> 01:46:21.079
<v Speaker 14>is the objective of what that judge is doing on Friday.

1820
01:46:21.279 --> 01:46:21.520
<v Speaker 3>It is.

1821
01:46:21.680 --> 01:46:24.279
<v Speaker 2>And if people actually paid attention to what we will

1822
01:46:24.319 --> 01:46:28.560
<v Speaker 2>talk as the merits of or lack thereof, of the prosecution,

1823
01:46:28.960 --> 01:46:31.079
<v Speaker 2>they would realize that the only person who is going

1824
01:46:31.119 --> 01:46:33.079
<v Speaker 2>to be embarrassed by this or should be embarrassed by

1825
01:46:33.159 --> 01:46:35.359
<v Speaker 2>this is the judge himself and the prosecutors who brought

1826
01:46:35.399 --> 01:46:38.560
<v Speaker 2>the damn charges against them. This was not a crime

1827
01:46:38.680 --> 01:46:42.520
<v Speaker 2>to start with, is nothing. There was no criminal activity, nothing.

1828
01:46:43.159 --> 01:46:46.880
<v Speaker 2>This was an arms length real estate transaction. Trump wants

1829
01:46:46.920 --> 01:46:49.840
<v Speaker 2>to borrow money, he uses his real estate as collateral.

1830
01:46:50.119 --> 01:46:52.039
<v Speaker 2>Made this point so many times it makes me blue

1831
01:46:52.079 --> 01:46:54.880
<v Speaker 2>in the face. I mean, come on, how much is

1832
01:46:54.960 --> 01:46:57.960
<v Speaker 2>your houseworth. It's worth what someone is willing to buy

1833
01:46:58.039 --> 01:47:02.439
<v Speaker 2>it for at the moment of sale, nothing more, nothing less.

1834
01:47:02.560 --> 01:47:05.319
<v Speaker 2>That's an arms length transaction negotiated between the seller of

1835
01:47:05.399 --> 01:47:08.600
<v Speaker 2>the home and whoever bought it. This was using real

1836
01:47:08.720 --> 01:47:13.720
<v Speaker 2>estate as collateral to secure loans from professional lenders, namely

1837
01:47:14.000 --> 01:47:17.199
<v Speaker 2>very large banks who have their own real estate departments

1838
01:47:17.399 --> 01:47:20.840
<v Speaker 2>that are capable of determining the accuracy of the value

1839
01:47:20.920 --> 01:47:24.239
<v Speaker 2>that Trump said. Trump could say, oh, my real estate's

1840
01:47:24.279 --> 01:47:26.640
<v Speaker 2>worth two trillion dollars in the bank would have laughed

1841
01:47:26.680 --> 01:47:29.199
<v Speaker 2>and said, oh no, it's not how much money you

1842
01:47:29.279 --> 01:47:30.920
<v Speaker 2>looking to borrow? And well, I want to borrow eight

1843
01:47:31.000 --> 01:47:32.640
<v Speaker 2>hundred and fifty million dollars. All right, let me check

1844
01:47:32.680 --> 01:47:35.600
<v Speaker 2>out your profile, let me look at your real estate portfolio. No, no,

1845
01:47:35.720 --> 01:47:38.680
<v Speaker 2>we value it closer to I don't know whatever, and

1846
01:47:39.039 --> 01:47:42.199
<v Speaker 2>they give him the loan and he paid it off.

1847
01:47:43.399 --> 01:47:48.199
<v Speaker 2>The banks testified at trial they were not harmed by anything.

1848
01:47:48.399 --> 01:47:51.520
<v Speaker 2>They were not out money. Donald Trump didn't builk them

1849
01:47:51.640 --> 01:47:57.760
<v Speaker 2>out of anything. They're capable, sophisticated lenders. It's a sham.

1850
01:47:58.439 --> 01:48:03.000
<v Speaker 2>It's the worst possible illustration of the lawfare that was

1851
01:48:03.039 --> 01:48:06.880
<v Speaker 2>waged against Donald Trump is that specific set of cases

1852
01:48:06.960 --> 01:48:10.119
<v Speaker 2>and the trumped up number of charges. I mean it.

1853
01:48:11.239 --> 01:48:13.000
<v Speaker 2>I'll just stop right now. Hold on, I'll bring it

1854
01:48:13.079 --> 01:48:15.680
<v Speaker 2>back and you can get more off your out of

1855
01:48:15.680 --> 01:48:16.600
<v Speaker 2>your system.

1856
01:48:16.680 --> 01:48:16.840
<v Speaker 3>There.

1857
01:48:17.000 --> 01:48:20.119
<v Speaker 2>Christopher Sartin for stealing your thunder. But this just burns

1858
01:48:20.159 --> 01:48:21.880
<v Speaker 2>my height every time I talk about it. Seven thirty

1859
01:48:21.920 --> 01:48:23.840
<v Speaker 2>six right now is stick around more with Christopher Smithman

1860
01:48:24.039 --> 01:48:27.279
<v Speaker 2>After I mentioned affordable medical imaging. Imaging does not have

1861
01:48:27.399 --> 01:48:30.039
<v Speaker 2>to cost you thousands of dollars. I'm talking about MRIs,

1862
01:48:30.079 --> 01:48:35.720
<v Speaker 2>CT scans, echo cardiogram's, ultrasounds, lung screenings, maybe a cardiac scoring.

1863
01:48:35.880 --> 01:48:38.800
<v Speaker 2>If your doctor prescribes any one of those, your doctor

1864
01:48:38.880 --> 01:48:40.439
<v Speaker 2>is gonna want you to go to the hospital imaging

1865
01:48:40.479 --> 01:48:43.199
<v Speaker 2>department because the hospital probably owns his or her practice.

1866
01:48:43.600 --> 01:48:46.600
<v Speaker 2>Keep the money in house, Hey, here's three thousand dollars

1867
01:48:46.680 --> 01:48:48.560
<v Speaker 2>out of your own pocket so you can get a

1868
01:48:48.600 --> 01:48:51.000
<v Speaker 2>CT scan because your insurance won't cover the whole thing,

1869
01:48:51.119 --> 01:48:53.760
<v Speaker 2>or your ale new calendar year ready to hit the

1870
01:48:53.800 --> 01:48:56.680
<v Speaker 2>ground running with a nine thousand plus out of pocket liability.

1871
01:48:56.800 --> 01:48:59.920
<v Speaker 2>Uh huh, you're paying for the whole thing a CT scan,

1872
01:49:00.000 --> 01:49:02.840
<v Speaker 2>and the hospital could cost you five thousand dollars in

1873
01:49:02.880 --> 01:49:06.359
<v Speaker 2>the billia extra for the board certified radiologist report, which

1874
01:49:06.399 --> 01:49:08.880
<v Speaker 2>your doctor needs in order to understand what the image shows.

1875
01:49:08.960 --> 01:49:12.439
<v Speaker 2>That all is one low price. At Affordable Imaging Services,

1876
01:49:12.479 --> 01:49:14.840
<v Speaker 2>you get a CT scan without a contrast four hundred

1877
01:49:14.880 --> 01:49:17.600
<v Speaker 2>and fifty bucks, and it does include the radiologist report.

1878
01:49:17.920 --> 01:49:20.079
<v Speaker 2>If you need a contrast, the price goes up. This

1879
01:49:20.159 --> 01:49:22.800
<v Speaker 2>six hundred same thing across the board MRI with a

1880
01:49:22.840 --> 01:49:25.159
<v Speaker 2>contrast four to ninety or without a contrast four hundred

1881
01:49:25.239 --> 01:49:27.399
<v Speaker 2>ninety five bucks. A MRI could cost you thirty five

1882
01:49:27.520 --> 01:49:31.439
<v Speaker 2>hundred dollars or more at a hospital. It's insane. I've

1883
01:49:31.479 --> 01:49:34.399
<v Speaker 2>been to Affordable Imaging Services. I got a CT scan there.

1884
01:49:34.520 --> 01:49:36.960
<v Speaker 2>My doctor had absolutely no problem with the images or

1885
01:49:37.000 --> 01:49:39.680
<v Speaker 2>the report. It works and it didn't have to show

1886
01:49:39.720 --> 01:49:42.119
<v Speaker 2>out thousands of dollars out of my own pocket, So

1887
01:49:42.239 --> 01:49:43.600
<v Speaker 2>don't do that. You have a choice when it comes

1888
01:49:43.600 --> 01:49:46.239
<v Speaker 2>to your medical care. It's very low overhead, folks, but

1889
01:49:46.279 --> 01:49:48.479
<v Speaker 2>they use the same kind of equipment the hospitals use,

1890
01:49:48.720 --> 01:49:52.199
<v Speaker 2>so why pay for all that overhead? Five one three seven,

1898
01:50:08.880 --> 01:50:10.399
<v Speaker 2>got to correct the record and they want to give

1899
01:50:10.439 --> 01:50:13.399
<v Speaker 2>props to Marcia. Thank you, Marcia. I did get the

1900
01:50:13.439 --> 01:50:16.560
<v Speaker 2>cases mixed up. The thirty four phony counts relate to

1901
01:50:16.680 --> 01:50:19.720
<v Speaker 2>falsifying business records to cover up an alleged hush money

1902
01:50:19.800 --> 01:50:23.760
<v Speaker 2>payment to porn star Stormy Daniel, So I got my

1903
01:50:23.880 --> 01:50:27.840
<v Speaker 2>law fair cases mixed up regardless though it is a nonsensical,

1904
01:50:28.000 --> 01:50:31.800
<v Speaker 2>ridiculous case in the first place. So but we've seen

1905
01:50:31.800 --> 01:50:33.640
<v Speaker 2>a lot of that when it comes to lawfair against

1906
01:50:33.680 --> 01:50:37.439
<v Speaker 2>Donald Trump. Anyway, Appreciate again Marcia clearing up the record.

1907
01:50:39.199 --> 01:50:40.119
<v Speaker 2>Sometimes I'm wrong.

1908
01:50:43.319 --> 01:50:48.279
<v Speaker 14>Go ahead, Christopher, Hey, Brian, listen, there's so many there's

1909
01:50:48.359 --> 01:50:50.920
<v Speaker 14>so many cases out there, and it's one of the

1910
01:50:51.039 --> 01:50:57.159
<v Speaker 14>reasons why President elect Trump wong because so many Americans

1911
01:50:57.600 --> 01:51:00.960
<v Speaker 14>were saying that if they can do this to him,

1912
01:51:01.800 --> 01:51:06.439
<v Speaker 14>they can do it to you, to me, to anybody.

1913
01:51:07.039 --> 01:51:11.800
<v Speaker 14>And so this notion that again the judge is interjecting

1914
01:51:11.920 --> 01:51:15.960
<v Speaker 14>himself on Friday, because the goal is on the twentieth

1915
01:51:16.039 --> 01:51:19.359
<v Speaker 14>of January for them to say here history is this

1916
01:51:19.560 --> 01:51:24.399
<v Speaker 14>is mainstream media. We now are swearing in a president

1917
01:51:24.479 --> 01:51:29.039
<v Speaker 14>for the first time who's a convicted felon, when we

1918
01:51:29.239 --> 01:51:33.720
<v Speaker 14>know that on appeal, this entire case will be thrown out.

1919
01:51:34.159 --> 01:51:36.920
<v Speaker 14>And what's so bizarre about it is the crime in

1920
01:51:37.039 --> 01:51:40.720
<v Speaker 14>New York is so out of control where you have

1921
01:51:41.039 --> 01:51:45.279
<v Speaker 14>them going after Penny three or four weeks ago, who

1922
01:51:45.399 --> 01:51:49.479
<v Speaker 14>now is free but was facing fifteen years, and then

1923
01:51:49.640 --> 01:51:52.199
<v Speaker 14>two weeks later you have a twenty three year old

1924
01:51:52.359 --> 01:51:56.359
<v Speaker 14>nurse on the train set on fire by an a

1925
01:51:56.520 --> 01:52:02.359
<v Speaker 14>legal immigrant, fanning the woman while she's on fire Brian Thomas.

1926
01:52:02.920 --> 01:52:06.720
<v Speaker 14>And you would think that this city would have enough

1927
01:52:06.920 --> 01:52:10.000
<v Speaker 14>to deal with, but now what they want to continue

1928
01:52:10.039 --> 01:52:14.920
<v Speaker 14>to do with crime raging out of control, they want

1929
01:52:14.960 --> 01:52:17.840
<v Speaker 14>to do this kind of craziness on Friday, where they're

1930
01:52:17.840 --> 01:52:19.640
<v Speaker 14>going to say, we're going to zoom in the president

1931
01:52:19.960 --> 01:52:22.520
<v Speaker 14>and we're going to sentence him so that he can

1932
01:52:22.840 --> 01:52:27.399
<v Speaker 14>be officially a fellow. It's so outrageous, Brian, to see

1933
01:52:27.479 --> 01:52:30.000
<v Speaker 14>what's happening in New York. It's not a city that

1934
01:52:30.119 --> 01:52:34.720
<v Speaker 14>I even want to visit because of the crime, because

1935
01:52:34.800 --> 01:52:38.479
<v Speaker 14>of the outrageous behavior of the politicians there. They have

1936
01:52:38.640 --> 01:52:41.039
<v Speaker 14>so many other things to work on, and this is

1937
01:52:41.079 --> 01:52:42.680
<v Speaker 14>where they're spending their time.

1938
01:52:42.800 --> 01:52:45.119
<v Speaker 2>Sir, Well, it's a new County year, and now congestion

1939
01:52:46.399 --> 01:52:48.279
<v Speaker 2>taxes have kicked in in New York, so if you

1940
01:52:48.399 --> 01:52:50.159
<v Speaker 2>drive your car into certain areas in New York, you're

1941
01:52:50.199 --> 01:52:52.399
<v Speaker 2>going to get charged an arm and a leg. One

1942
01:52:52.439 --> 01:52:54.239
<v Speaker 2>of the goals of that not only to raise money

1943
01:52:54.319 --> 01:52:57.279
<v Speaker 2>because they're out of money and they always are, to

1944
01:52:57.359 --> 01:53:00.920
<v Speaker 2>try to get more people to use public transportation, subjecting

1945
01:53:00.960 --> 01:53:03.520
<v Speaker 2>more people to the evils that exist in the New

1946
01:53:03.600 --> 01:53:06.279
<v Speaker 2>York subway system. That makes a whole lot of sense.

1947
01:53:06.399 --> 01:53:09.600
<v Speaker 2>If people don't want to ride it already, go Lee.

1948
01:53:11.199 --> 01:53:14.600
<v Speaker 14>And then we have to deal with this President Biden.

1949
01:53:14.880 --> 01:53:19.920
<v Speaker 14>As I go out to say he has put all

1950
01:53:20.000 --> 01:53:22.960
<v Speaker 14>these partons out. I don't want to hear anybody in

1951
01:53:23.079 --> 01:53:28.000
<v Speaker 14>mainStreet media talk about any parton that the new incoming

1952
01:53:28.079 --> 01:53:32.359
<v Speaker 14>president makes. After this guy is issuing partons for people

1953
01:53:32.479 --> 01:53:36.920
<v Speaker 14>who have murdered people, people who were paid pay to

1954
01:53:37.039 --> 01:53:41.359
<v Speaker 14>put them into private kids into private prisons. No one

1955
01:53:41.600 --> 01:53:46.760
<v Speaker 14>understands rhyme or reason of what President Biden is doing

1956
01:53:46.960 --> 01:53:51.039
<v Speaker 14>right now with these partons. And it's quite scary because

1957
01:53:51.079 --> 01:53:54.560
<v Speaker 14>it's that example of who is running the country, who's

1958
01:53:54.680 --> 01:53:58.119
<v Speaker 14>making these decisions. They just aren't making any sense to me,

1959
01:53:58.239 --> 01:54:01.359
<v Speaker 14>Brian Thomas, I understand trying to figure out what this

1960
01:54:01.560 --> 01:54:05.600
<v Speaker 14>president is doing as he says, he's issuing executive orders

1961
01:54:06.000 --> 01:54:09.239
<v Speaker 14>making it more difficult for the incoming president, which he

1962
01:54:09.399 --> 01:54:14.680
<v Speaker 14>knows is agenda is drill, meaning he's wanting to explore oil,

1963
01:54:15.199 --> 01:54:18.800
<v Speaker 14>and Biden right now is issuing executive orders to make

1964
01:54:18.840 --> 01:54:22.840
<v Speaker 14>it more difficult for the incoming president. I just don't

1965
01:54:22.960 --> 01:54:26.640
<v Speaker 14>understand what they're doing. Why they think that the average

1966
01:54:26.720 --> 01:54:30.079
<v Speaker 14>man and woman American in this country can't see what

1967
01:54:30.199 --> 01:54:33.680
<v Speaker 14>they're doing. And my last point is this reading and

1968
01:54:33.880 --> 01:54:36.720
<v Speaker 14>writing stuff in New Jersey and the school teachers and

1969
01:54:36.920 --> 01:54:40.279
<v Speaker 14>lowering the standards. Let me tell you, Brian Thomas, we

1970
01:54:40.560 --> 01:54:46.079
<v Speaker 14>need more teachers we need higher level teachers, we need

1971
01:54:46.279 --> 01:54:50.319
<v Speaker 14>better teachers, whatever the word is. Lowering the standards of

1972
01:54:50.520 --> 01:54:54.319
<v Speaker 14>reading and writing as a standard for a teacher is

1973
01:54:54.479 --> 01:54:57.439
<v Speaker 14>so over the top and so absurd for me to

1974
01:54:57.520 --> 01:55:00.479
<v Speaker 14>read that, having been married to a school teacher, having

1975
01:55:00.560 --> 01:55:04.680
<v Speaker 14>my mother being a retired school teacher, I don't get

1976
01:55:04.760 --> 01:55:05.680
<v Speaker 14>this one at all.

1977
01:55:06.000 --> 01:55:08.640
<v Speaker 2>I don't either, And how can that possibly benefit our

1978
01:55:08.720 --> 01:55:12.439
<v Speaker 2>children who are already suffering under the current standards, not

1979
01:55:12.640 --> 01:55:14.840
<v Speaker 2>just in New Jersey but other states as well. They

1980
01:55:14.920 --> 01:55:19.600
<v Speaker 2>can't pass simple basic eighth grade you know, reading accomplishment levels,

1981
01:55:19.640 --> 01:55:22.439
<v Speaker 2>and yet they'll still advance them onto ninth grade without

1982
01:55:22.479 --> 01:55:24.840
<v Speaker 2>the requisite skills to even pass eighth grade. It's just

1983
01:55:25.199 --> 01:55:28.439
<v Speaker 2>mind boggling. But real quick, I got two follow ups

1984
01:55:28.920 --> 01:55:32.199
<v Speaker 2>insofar as the pardons are concerned, and there wasn't actually

1985
01:55:32.279 --> 01:55:35.359
<v Speaker 2>a rather critical Wall Street Journal op ed piece. But

1986
01:55:35.560 --> 01:55:38.880
<v Speaker 2>don't be so quick to endorse Donald Trump pardoning these

1987
01:55:39.000 --> 01:55:41.399
<v Speaker 2>January six ers. And there were some you know, vile

1988
01:55:41.560 --> 01:55:44.840
<v Speaker 2>actions done by some people. I don't abide by beating

1989
01:55:44.880 --> 01:55:47.319
<v Speaker 2>a police officer over the head with a poll for example,

1990
01:55:47.760 --> 01:55:49.720
<v Speaker 2>but there are a lot of you know, rather innocuous

1991
01:55:49.760 --> 01:55:53.439
<v Speaker 2>behavior that's still been prosecuted But hasn't Joe Biden, in

1992
01:55:53.720 --> 01:55:57.079
<v Speaker 2>pardoning or commuting these death sentences for all these vile,

1993
01:55:57.319 --> 01:56:01.079
<v Speaker 2>I mean horrifically vile people, didn't he kind of clear

1994
01:56:01.159 --> 01:56:03.239
<v Speaker 2>the path for Donald Trump to get away with it

1995
01:56:03.399 --> 01:56:05.319
<v Speaker 2>to the extent you want to put a pejorative term

1996
01:56:05.439 --> 01:56:08.399
<v Speaker 2>on it. If Donald Trump's you know, partnering from Jay sixers.

1997
01:56:08.760 --> 01:56:11.439
<v Speaker 2>Last time I checked, the only person who got murdered

1998
01:56:11.479 --> 01:56:14.119
<v Speaker 2>there was Ashley Babbitt when she was gunned down by

1999
01:56:14.159 --> 01:56:16.479
<v Speaker 2>a Capitol official with a firearm, even though she didn't

2000
01:56:16.520 --> 01:56:19.760
<v Speaker 2>represent any threat to the man or anybody in the room.

2001
01:56:20.359 --> 01:56:23.079
<v Speaker 2>Now beyond that, you know, when you compare some of

2002
01:56:23.159 --> 01:56:26.640
<v Speaker 2>these the worst of the Jay sixers that they've gotten incarcerated,

2003
01:56:27.239 --> 01:56:30.079
<v Speaker 2>they pale in comparison to vast majority of the people

2004
01:56:30.119 --> 01:56:31.279
<v Speaker 2>Joe Biden led off the hook.

2005
01:56:32.479 --> 01:56:35.119
<v Speaker 14>Well, let me say the short answer to your question

2006
01:56:35.439 --> 01:56:40.319
<v Speaker 14>is yes. And the reality of it is that cherry

2007
01:56:40.439 --> 01:56:43.119
<v Speaker 14>on top for this president was the parton of his

2008
01:56:43.279 --> 01:56:47.079
<v Speaker 14>own son, you know, for a ten year window of

2009
01:56:47.279 --> 01:56:52.039
<v Speaker 14>time with no clear what specific crime he was being

2010
01:56:52.119 --> 01:56:55.960
<v Speaker 14>partned for. And by the way, President Biden isn't done

2011
01:56:56.000 --> 01:56:59.920
<v Speaker 14>with his pardons, look for him to parton people like Fouci.

2012
01:57:00.399 --> 01:57:05.800
<v Speaker 14>Look for him to parton people like Lindsey Graham's dar

2013
01:57:06.000 --> 01:57:09.239
<v Speaker 14>Look for him to partn maybe Nancy Pelosi. There are

2014
01:57:09.279 --> 01:57:12.880
<v Speaker 14>going to be other partons as he leaves, going onto

2015
01:57:12.920 --> 01:57:15.359
<v Speaker 14>the twentieth his last kiss to.

2016
01:57:15.520 --> 01:57:16.560
<v Speaker 2>All of America.

2017
01:57:16.960 --> 01:57:19.319
<v Speaker 14>Are going to be more partons for people that are

2018
01:57:19.359 --> 01:57:21.720
<v Speaker 14>going to make all of us pucker in a way

2019
01:57:21.800 --> 01:57:24.439
<v Speaker 14>that we can't even imagine. So he's not done with

2020
01:57:24.600 --> 01:57:25.039
<v Speaker 14>the parton.

2021
01:57:25.279 --> 01:57:25.640
<v Speaker 2>Probably not.

2022
01:57:25.920 --> 01:57:26.800
<v Speaker 5>He's probably in.

2023
01:57:26.880 --> 01:57:27.520
<v Speaker 10>The middle of it.

2024
01:57:27.640 --> 01:57:28.840
<v Speaker 14>Brother, He's probably right in.

2025
01:57:28.840 --> 01:57:29.359
<v Speaker 10>The middle of it.

2026
01:57:29.840 --> 01:57:33.680
<v Speaker 2>Be You're right, you know. But the thing is, you know, I,

2027
01:57:34.359 --> 01:57:36.760
<v Speaker 2>at least in so far as Hunter Biden is concerned,

2028
01:57:36.800 --> 01:57:40.600
<v Speaker 2>he had charges hanging over his head. Right in so

2029
01:57:40.720 --> 01:57:42.239
<v Speaker 2>far as some of these other people that were partoned,

2030
01:57:42.279 --> 01:57:43.840
<v Speaker 2>they had already been convicted, so they've been through the

2031
01:57:43.840 --> 01:57:47.800
<v Speaker 2>whole new process thing. What a Fauci You mentioned Faucin,

2032
01:57:47.840 --> 01:57:49.560
<v Speaker 2>And I keep hearing his name being brought up as

2033
01:57:49.800 --> 01:57:52.159
<v Speaker 2>you know, a subject or likely to perhaps get a

2034
01:57:52.279 --> 01:57:55.960
<v Speaker 2>presidential pardon along the lines of what they gave to

2035
01:57:56.119 --> 01:57:58.520
<v Speaker 2>what he gave to his son Hunter. But doesn't that

2036
01:57:58.840 --> 01:58:04.000
<v Speaker 2>suggest that Fauci is then guilty of crimes? Why would

2037
01:58:04.039 --> 01:58:06.920
<v Speaker 2>you parton someone nobody. No charges have been brought against

2038
01:58:06.960 --> 01:58:10.159
<v Speaker 2>Fauci yet, so why would you what possible reason would

2039
01:58:10.159 --> 01:58:13.359
<v Speaker 2>you have to pardon them? Doesn't that sound guilty?

2040
01:58:14.680 --> 01:58:17.760
<v Speaker 14>Yeah? I think the concern is that he lied to

2041
01:58:17.840 --> 01:58:23.800
<v Speaker 14>the American people about COVID, about what was happening in China,

2042
01:58:24.319 --> 01:58:27.520
<v Speaker 14>about research that's happening in China. I know you've had

2043
01:58:27.640 --> 01:58:31.479
<v Speaker 14>on Congressman brad Winstrop to discuss that. So I think

2044
01:58:31.560 --> 01:58:34.760
<v Speaker 14>that they're things that we might not know about, that

2045
01:58:35.000 --> 01:58:38.399
<v Speaker 14>the incoming administration not only will find out about it,

2046
01:58:38.560 --> 01:58:42.439
<v Speaker 14>but will post it on social media for everybody to see.

2047
01:58:42.760 --> 01:58:45.840
<v Speaker 14>That he might have some broad parting on things that

2048
01:58:46.000 --> 01:58:48.359
<v Speaker 14>you and I are not privy to. At this point,

2049
01:58:48.479 --> 01:58:52.800
<v Speaker 14>it's pretty scary to have an outgoing president issue these

2050
01:58:52.920 --> 01:58:56.359
<v Speaker 14>kinds of broad partners if he does this for crimes

2051
01:58:56.640 --> 01:58:58.239
<v Speaker 14>that you and I don't even know about.

2052
01:58:58.760 --> 01:59:01.760
<v Speaker 2>I know some have accused of mass murder in connection

2053
01:59:01.920 --> 01:59:06.479
<v Speaker 2>with the COVID nineteen vaccine, for example, and of course

2054
01:59:07.079 --> 01:59:09.760
<v Speaker 2>being involved in gain of function research and funding the

2055
01:59:09.800 --> 01:59:13.520
<v Speaker 2>WUHUN instead of of virology or technico virology. So yeah,

2056
01:59:14.199 --> 01:59:16.159
<v Speaker 2>I mean, I knew the answer to the question before

2057
01:59:16.159 --> 01:59:17.199
<v Speaker 2>I asked it out loud.

2058
01:59:17.279 --> 01:59:18.199
<v Speaker 10>But you did.

2059
01:59:18.199 --> 01:59:19.840
<v Speaker 2>It's just of course you.

2060
01:59:22.399 --> 01:59:25.680
<v Speaker 14>Hey, Ryan, Hey, look, we're sitting here just stracting our heads,

2061
01:59:26.000 --> 01:59:28.560
<v Speaker 14>and the reality of it is the down heel of

2062
01:59:28.680 --> 01:59:31.840
<v Speaker 14>partons are not over. There's no way that he's not

2063
01:59:32.039 --> 01:59:34.640
<v Speaker 14>going to if he's part in his son. There's no

2064
01:59:34.800 --> 01:59:37.520
<v Speaker 14>way that other people are knocking on the door saying, hey,

2065
01:59:37.600 --> 01:59:39.600
<v Speaker 14>I need a couple of partons before you get out

2066
01:59:39.640 --> 01:59:42.319
<v Speaker 14>of here, President Biden. And then they're looking at him

2067
01:59:42.399 --> 01:59:45.279
<v Speaker 14>going by the way you and I have worked, have

2068
01:59:45.439 --> 01:59:47.920
<v Speaker 14>spoken to, have dealt with, and I say this in

2069
01:59:48.119 --> 01:59:55.399
<v Speaker 14>love with people who have suffered from dementia are Alzheimer's. Clearly,

2070
01:59:55.600 --> 02:00:00.479
<v Speaker 14>this president is impaired by some type of mental condition

2071
02:00:01.039 --> 02:00:03.680
<v Speaker 14>and we will find out about this in the years

2072
02:00:03.760 --> 02:00:07.760
<v Speaker 14>to come. It is the greatest cover up of a

2073
02:00:07.920 --> 02:00:12.359
<v Speaker 14>president's office. I'm talking about Schumer, I'm talking about Vice

2074
02:00:12.439 --> 02:00:16.279
<v Speaker 14>President Harris. Anybody that has been interacting with this president

2075
02:00:16.560 --> 02:00:19.800
<v Speaker 14>has been telling the American people, don't believe your eyes,

2076
02:00:20.359 --> 02:00:24.159
<v Speaker 14>don't believe your ears. The best microphones in the world

2077
02:00:24.319 --> 02:00:27.079
<v Speaker 14>are in front of President Biden, and no one can

2078
02:00:27.279 --> 02:00:29.039
<v Speaker 14>understand what he's saying.

2079
02:00:29.359 --> 02:00:33.000
<v Speaker 2>That's true. I'll leave you with this rhetorical question. Christopher

2080
02:00:33.760 --> 02:00:39.199
<v Speaker 2>do you think Diddy will get pardoned before Biden went No,

2081
02:00:40.720 --> 02:00:41.199
<v Speaker 2>fair enough.

2082
02:00:43.239 --> 02:00:46.840
<v Speaker 14>I'm concerned that he doesn't, that he ends up like

2083
02:00:47.079 --> 02:00:50.079
<v Speaker 14>f Ste. He has so much information on so many

2084
02:00:50.119 --> 02:00:53.720
<v Speaker 14>people on the West Coast that people are incredibly concerned

2085
02:00:53.960 --> 02:00:55.199
<v Speaker 14>about him testifying.

2086
02:00:55.920 --> 02:00:58.560
<v Speaker 2>Oh yeah, yeah, well you know Epstein. We all know

2087
02:00:58.560 --> 02:01:01.359
<v Speaker 2>what happened to Epstein. Chris Smithman, God bless you, sir.

2088
02:01:01.560 --> 02:01:04.439
<v Speaker 2>Very happy New Year. I'm looking forward to next Monday already,

2089
02:01:04.520 --> 02:01:05.560

2093
02:01:13.840 --> 02:01:16.720
<v Speaker 2>with Color Electric. Andrew Collen is an amazing team of

2094
02:01:17.000 --> 02:01:19.880
<v Speaker 2>certified electricians. They do wonderful work. They do it at

2095
02:01:19.880 --> 02:01:21.520
<v Speaker 2>the right price, and you'd be very pleased with the

2096
02:01:21.560 --> 02:01:23.720
<v Speaker 2>electric work they do for your home, whether it's a

2097
02:01:23.760 --> 02:01:28.119
<v Speaker 2>simple project, something tiny like a outlet installation or maybe

2098
02:01:28.199 --> 02:01:30.680
<v Speaker 2>adding a canlighter to one of the We had accent

2099
02:01:30.800 --> 02:01:33.199
<v Speaker 2>lighting added with a couple of paintings. And when they

2100
02:01:33.239 --> 02:01:35.159
<v Speaker 2>were doing the canlights, I haven't ever mentioned that just

2101
02:01:35.239 --> 02:01:40.479
<v Speaker 2>real small tiny canlights led you adjustable. You can corrotate

2102
02:01:40.560 --> 02:01:44.479
<v Speaker 2>them to highlight the painting on the wall, so they

2103
02:01:44.880 --> 02:01:47.039
<v Speaker 2>just another little project you can think about doing. We

2104
02:01:47.159 --> 02:01:50.359
<v Speaker 2>had the small can lights installed with the grow light

2105
02:01:50.520 --> 02:01:53.199
<v Speaker 2>spectrums for the plants in our bedroom. No, we're not

2106
02:01:53.279 --> 02:01:56.159
<v Speaker 2>grown weed in the bedroom, but I do dearly love

2107
02:01:56.279 --> 02:01:59.039
<v Speaker 2>having the beautiful plants that my wife has collected in

2108
02:01:59.159 --> 02:02:02.199
<v Speaker 2>the in front the windows though. But these lights actually

2109
02:02:02.319 --> 02:02:06.000
<v Speaker 2>do an amazing job of helping those plants stay healthy.

2110
02:02:06.119 --> 02:02:08.279
<v Speaker 2>So just one more little project you might want to consider.

2111
02:02:08.359 --> 02:02:10.439
<v Speaker 2>But maybe need your whole house rewired because you still

2112
02:02:10.479 --> 02:02:13.239
<v Speaker 2>have nob and tub or iluminum wiring big and small.

2113
02:02:13.279 --> 02:02:15.279
<v Speaker 2>You get a ten year wiring warranty on anything they

<v Speaker 2>Brian Lord Almond.

2133
02:03:08.479 --> 02:03:10.119
<v Speaker 4>This is a whopper. Have you seen this in a

2134
02:03:10.199 --> 02:03:10.720
<v Speaker 4>very long time?

2135
02:03:10.960 --> 02:03:14.000
<v Speaker 2>We really long time. I knew we got a couple

2136
02:03:14.039 --> 02:03:16.199
<v Speaker 2>of topics you provided, and we're going to get to those.

2137
02:03:16.279 --> 02:03:17.840
<v Speaker 2>And I don't think I'm throwing you much of a

2138
02:03:17.920 --> 02:03:20.800
<v Speaker 2>carved ball, since you are a financial planner. But I

2139
02:03:20.840 --> 02:03:22.640
<v Speaker 2>had a couple of things I just wanted to bring up,

2140
02:03:22.760 --> 02:03:27.359
<v Speaker 2>and I was inspired by my own personal experience. I

2141
02:03:27.439 --> 02:03:29.199
<v Speaker 2>get my credit score, you know, I know what it is.

2142
02:03:29.359 --> 02:03:32.079
<v Speaker 2>And there was an article on the Wall Street Journal,

2143
02:03:32.199 --> 02:03:35.039
<v Speaker 2>I believe it was from yesterday, one man's attempt to

2144
02:03:35.079 --> 02:03:38.640
<v Speaker 2>get a perfect eight to fifty credit score and rather

2145
02:03:38.760 --> 02:03:42.560
<v Speaker 2>interesting article. And I not bragging or anything, but there

2146
02:03:42.640 --> 02:03:44.439
<v Speaker 2>was a period of time where I did enjoy a

2147
02:03:44.560 --> 02:03:47.279
<v Speaker 2>perfect credit score for a while and lo and behold.

2148
02:03:47.319 --> 02:03:50.680
<v Speaker 2>I launched the app to find my credit score, and

2149
02:03:50.720 --> 02:03:53.359
<v Speaker 2>it dropped down by like, I don't know, twelve points

2150
02:03:53.479 --> 02:03:57.560
<v Speaker 2>or something. Nothing in my life had changed, nothing. All

2151
02:03:57.600 --> 02:03:59.720
<v Speaker 2>my bills are paid, you know, I got all these

2152
02:03:59.800 --> 02:04:04.399
<v Speaker 2>per everything's perfect, everything's perfect. Then they suggestion on the

2153
02:04:04.920 --> 02:04:06.960
<v Speaker 2>I don't know if his equifacts or whatever it was,

2154
02:04:07.760 --> 02:04:11.960
<v Speaker 2>I don't have enough credit card accounts. In other words,

2155
02:04:12.319 --> 02:04:16.279
<v Speaker 2>they want me to have more available credit in spite

2156
02:04:16.319 --> 02:04:17.960
<v Speaker 2>of the fact that all my bills are paid and

2157
02:04:18.039 --> 02:04:20.960
<v Speaker 2>I've got enough available credit to cover my family's basic

2158
02:04:21.079 --> 02:04:23.640
<v Speaker 2>needs and probably another family down the streets basic needs.

2159
02:04:23.920 --> 02:04:26.800
<v Speaker 2>What the hell is with credit scores? And why don't

2160
02:04:26.840 --> 02:04:29.119
<v Speaker 2>they let people know? And they don't, as the article

2161
02:04:29.199 --> 02:04:32.800
<v Speaker 2>points out, they keep all this quiet. It's they said,

2162
02:04:32.840 --> 02:04:36.399
<v Speaker 2>the algorithms they assign people are proprietary, so you don't

2163
02:04:36.399 --> 02:04:39.079
<v Speaker 2>even know. And so the article goes over all these

2164
02:04:39.159 --> 02:04:43.159
<v Speaker 2>different you know, you know, the contortions this one guy

2165
02:04:43.359 --> 02:04:45.479
<v Speaker 2>went through in an effort to get an eight to

2166
02:04:45.520 --> 02:04:48.960
<v Speaker 2>fifty credit score, and it's just it was out. It

2167
02:04:49.039 --> 02:04:50.720
<v Speaker 2>was insane what he went through to try to do it,

2168
02:04:50.760 --> 02:04:52.439
<v Speaker 2>and he ultimately was able to do it just by

2169
02:04:52.560 --> 02:04:56.560
<v Speaker 2>maintaining a certain like teeny weeny percentage of some kind

2170
02:04:56.600 --> 02:04:59.880
<v Speaker 2>of balance on his various credit cards. Does it really

2171
02:05:00.199 --> 02:05:03.079
<v Speaker 2>matter once you get over and you're in that higher level?

2172
02:05:03.199 --> 02:05:05.680
<v Speaker 2>Does it matter? Should concern anybody? And do you know

2173
02:05:05.800 --> 02:05:09.560
<v Speaker 2>anything about credit scores and how they come up with them? Brian,

2174
02:05:09.640 --> 02:05:11.000
<v Speaker 2>I hate to put you on the spot, but this

2175
02:05:11.119 --> 02:05:11.760
<v Speaker 2>kind of irks me.

2176
02:05:12.560 --> 02:05:13.119
<v Speaker 4>No, not at all.

2177
02:05:13.319 --> 02:05:15.479
<v Speaker 16>And I've got clients who bring up these questions as well.

2178
02:05:15.560 --> 02:05:17.640
<v Speaker 16>Matter of fact, I have clients and there are frequent listeners.

2179
02:05:17.720 --> 02:05:19.800
<v Speaker 16>They may hear me say this who had the same

2180
02:05:19.880 --> 02:05:22.359
<v Speaker 16>experience that you did and had that eight fifty for

2181
02:05:22.439 --> 02:05:25.199
<v Speaker 16>that one brief shining moment, printed it out, brought it

2182
02:05:25.279 --> 02:05:27.560
<v Speaker 16>into me so we could celebrate, and then they framed it,

2183
02:05:28.119 --> 02:05:28.760
<v Speaker 16>hung it on the wall.

2184
02:05:28.840 --> 02:05:31.199
<v Speaker 4>So I think it shortly after that went back down.

2185
02:05:31.279 --> 02:05:34.000
<v Speaker 16>But to answer your question that these are great questions,

2186
02:05:34.000 --> 02:05:36.960
<v Speaker 16>but at the same time, once you're over really seven fifty,

2187
02:05:37.399 --> 02:05:39.880
<v Speaker 16>you're not going to get anything more special than you know,

2188
02:05:40.000 --> 02:05:42.079
<v Speaker 16>for being over eight hundred or or you know, even

2189
02:05:42.159 --> 02:05:43.800
<v Speaker 16>up with that eight to fifty range, there really aren't

2190
02:05:43.920 --> 02:05:46.760
<v Speaker 16>There isn't a you know, a special green room for.

2191
02:05:46.800 --> 02:05:48.960
<v Speaker 4>People with those super high credit scores.

2192
02:05:49.439 --> 02:05:52.079
<v Speaker 16>So it doesn't matter that much once you're Once you're

2193
02:05:52.119 --> 02:05:53.720
<v Speaker 16>at that range, you can kind of get what you need.

2194
02:05:54.439 --> 02:05:57.000
<v Speaker 16>But yeah, so question for you though, did did they

2195
02:05:57.159 --> 02:05:59.560
<v Speaker 16>did you did they specify that they thought you should

2196
02:05:59.640 --> 02:06:03.000
<v Speaker 16>have more actual credit card accounts or do they think

2197
02:06:03.039 --> 02:06:05.880
<v Speaker 16>you should have more credit available meaning higher limits and

2198
02:06:05.920 --> 02:06:06.680
<v Speaker 16>lower balances?

2199
02:06:07.000 --> 02:06:09.159
<v Speaker 2>Well, I didn't see anything but the limits. They gave

2200
02:06:09.239 --> 02:06:13.199
<v Speaker 2>me a specific number. I think I have I guess,

2201
02:06:13.399 --> 02:06:16.520
<v Speaker 2>ten specific accounts that they were able to identify within

2202
02:06:16.600 --> 02:06:20.760
<v Speaker 2>this list of whatever is an approved account, credit or otherwise,

2203
02:06:21.159 --> 02:06:23.920
<v Speaker 2>and then I should have more like fifteen to twenty

2204
02:06:24.119 --> 02:06:28.199
<v Speaker 2>or something. It's just I'm like, this seems vast awkwards,

2205
02:06:28.239 --> 02:06:28.960
<v Speaker 2>if you know what I mean.

2206
02:06:30.239 --> 02:06:33.560
<v Speaker 16>Yes, and the algorithm, that algorithm, like all algorithms, changes

2207
02:06:33.600 --> 02:06:35.840
<v Speaker 16>all the time because they're after whatever it is that

2208
02:06:35.880 --> 02:06:38.640
<v Speaker 16>they're after. But at the same time, the really the

2209
02:06:38.760 --> 02:06:41.800
<v Speaker 16>important things. You know, if you wanted that last marginal

2210
02:06:41.880 --> 02:06:43.840
<v Speaker 16>few points to get you to the eight fifty, then yeah,

2211
02:06:44.399 --> 02:06:46.840
<v Speaker 16>that's probably what you would need. And that algorithm that

2212
02:06:46.960 --> 02:06:49.520
<v Speaker 16>you're asking to tell you to give you advice on

2213
02:06:49.760 --> 02:06:51.800
<v Speaker 16>what else do I need is really reaching to the

2214
02:06:51.840 --> 02:06:54.039
<v Speaker 16>bottom of the barrel for the ideas, And that last

2215
02:06:54.119 --> 02:06:55.199
<v Speaker 16>bit is the number of accounts.

2216
02:06:55.199 --> 02:06:57.840
<v Speaker 2>It sounds like yeah apparently, so it just seems just

2217
02:06:57.920 --> 02:07:01.119
<v Speaker 2>so so stupid. If you don't need the additional credit,

2218
02:07:01.239 --> 02:07:04.880
<v Speaker 2>then why would you want it available? So I don't

2219
02:07:04.920 --> 02:07:09.079
<v Speaker 2>know anyhow, And along those lines, I just wanted to

2220
02:07:09.119 --> 02:07:12.119
<v Speaker 2>bring this up because in case people aren't aware in

2221
02:07:12.239 --> 02:07:15.720
<v Speaker 2>terms of credit, my wife just got I don't know,

2222
02:07:16.119 --> 02:07:19.079
<v Speaker 2>a Cole's statement or something. We don't even shop there anymore,

2223
02:07:19.439 --> 02:07:21.920
<v Speaker 2>but it was an announcement that their interest rate is

2224
02:07:22.000 --> 02:07:28.720
<v Speaker 2>now north of thirty percent. Thirty and it was one

2225
02:07:28.760 --> 02:07:32.239
<v Speaker 2>of several cards. You know, it was some other small

2226
02:07:32.279 --> 02:07:34.840
<v Speaker 2>retailer that we don't ever use, but I mean your

2227
02:07:35.159 --> 02:07:37.760
<v Speaker 2>thirty percent interest rate, Brian, that's insane.

2228
02:07:39.000 --> 02:07:41.039
<v Speaker 16>This is insane, and it tells you exactly who they're

2229
02:07:41.039 --> 02:07:43.920
<v Speaker 16>shooting for. They are truly, truly hoping that you will

2230
02:07:44.000 --> 02:07:46.680
<v Speaker 16>forget about it. Because remember the way a credit card works,

2231
02:07:46.720 --> 02:07:48.840
<v Speaker 16>it has a grace period too. So as soon as

2232
02:07:48.880 --> 02:07:51.960
<v Speaker 16>you swipe that card and you rack up a month's

2233
02:07:52.000 --> 02:07:54.000
<v Speaker 16>worth of expenses, you're going to get your statement, and

2234
02:07:54.079 --> 02:07:56.760
<v Speaker 16>then you've got usually twenty five maybe twenty eight days.

2235
02:07:56.800 --> 02:07:59.479
<v Speaker 16>It can waiver around there somewhere, but that's how much

2236
02:07:59.560 --> 02:08:02.359
<v Speaker 16>time you've got to get that paid off. What they're after,

2237
02:08:02.600 --> 02:08:05.359
<v Speaker 16>they're after the small percentage of people who are going

2238
02:08:05.439 --> 02:08:07.800
<v Speaker 16>to forget to make that payment and pay that statement off.

2239
02:08:08.159 --> 02:08:10.720
<v Speaker 16>Most people do. Most people get their rewards and run away.

2240
02:08:10.760 --> 02:08:12.720
<v Speaker 16>And I know you and I both play that game. Yeah,

2241
02:08:12.960 --> 02:08:14.640
<v Speaker 16>but there are a handful of people out there who

2242
02:08:14.680 --> 02:08:16.600
<v Speaker 16>will not make that payment, and they'll go, I'll get

2243
02:08:16.600 --> 02:08:19.439
<v Speaker 16>it next year. And if you annualize the interest that

2244
02:08:19.560 --> 02:08:23.119
<v Speaker 16>you're paying those on those accounts, you are simply paying

2245
02:08:23.159 --> 02:08:25.319
<v Speaker 16>an enormous amount of money for the privilege to owe

2246
02:08:25.359 --> 02:08:26.159
<v Speaker 16>a bank money.

2247
02:08:26.760 --> 02:08:29.279
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. Well, and again, I only bring it up in

2248
02:08:29.359 --> 02:08:32.159
<v Speaker 2>case people are not paying attention because apparently, I guess

2249
02:08:32.159 --> 02:08:34.720
<v Speaker 2>they can adjust these interest rates to any damn well

2250
02:08:34.800 --> 02:08:36.560
<v Speaker 2>time they please, or maybe they have to do at

2251
02:08:36.560 --> 02:08:37.920
<v Speaker 2>the beginning of the calendar year. I don't know what

2252
02:08:38.000 --> 02:08:39.880
<v Speaker 2>the rules are that apply to these credit card comp

2253
02:08:40.000 --> 02:08:44.000
<v Speaker 2>are credit cards, But man't pay close attention because I mean,

2254
02:08:44.119 --> 02:08:45.760
<v Speaker 2>let's face it, if you could find a credit card

2255
02:08:45.800 --> 02:08:48.960
<v Speaker 2>that only charges twenty percent versus one that charges thirty,

2256
02:08:49.000 --> 02:08:50.640
<v Speaker 2>you know which one you should be using if you're

2257
02:08:50.640 --> 02:08:52.720
<v Speaker 2>not if you're going to carry a balance. But it's

2258
02:08:52.720 --> 02:08:55.880
<v Speaker 2>still it's like the word usery comes to mind.

2259
02:08:56.640 --> 02:08:59.760
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, and well, i'd also add based on that thought process.

2260
02:09:00.000 --> 02:09:01.720
<v Speaker 16>I know you don't really think this way, but if

2261
02:09:01.760 --> 02:09:03.960
<v Speaker 16>you're really looking at the interest rate, if you're comparing

2262
02:09:04.039 --> 02:09:06.640
<v Speaker 16>the interest rate across credit cards, then you're probably using

2263
02:09:06.680 --> 02:09:10.079
<v Speaker 16>credit cards incorrectly. If you've got a situation where you've

2264
02:09:10.119 --> 02:09:11.520
<v Speaker 16>got a balance on one of them, then you need

2265
02:09:11.600 --> 02:09:14.720
<v Speaker 16>to be looking for a balance transfer opportunity. Sometimes those

2266
02:09:14.720 --> 02:09:17.079
<v Speaker 16>are zero percent for twelve to eighteen months, something like that.

2267
02:09:17.359 --> 02:09:19.920
<v Speaker 16>But if you've got a significant balance, I would say

2268
02:09:19.960 --> 02:09:22.119
<v Speaker 16>that twenty percent is truly no better than thirty percent.

2269
02:09:22.239 --> 02:09:23.079
<v Speaker 4>It's all way too high.

2270
02:09:23.319 --> 02:09:27.800
<v Speaker 2>It is way too high. All right, Well, let's I'm

2271
02:09:27.880 --> 02:09:29.960
<v Speaker 2>tempted to take an early break, Joe. Can we take

2272
02:09:29.960 --> 02:09:31.439
<v Speaker 2>an early break because we can go to the two

2273
02:09:31.479 --> 02:09:33.920
<v Speaker 2>topics afterwards, or you want to just dive into part

2274
02:09:33.960 --> 02:09:35.119
<v Speaker 2>of the first one, or how do you want to

2275
02:09:35.159 --> 02:09:37.760
<v Speaker 2>work it? Okay, Brian, We're gonna take an early break

2276
02:09:37.760 --> 02:09:39.600
<v Speaker 2>a couple minutes early because I don't want to start

2277
02:09:39.720 --> 02:09:42.680
<v Speaker 2>either one of the topics we have remaining, because I'm

2278
02:09:42.720 --> 02:09:44.720
<v Speaker 2>afraid we'll not have enough time in the segment to

2279
02:09:44.760 --> 02:09:46.800
<v Speaker 2>do it. So let's pause it We'll bring Brian James

2280
02:09:46.840 --> 02:09:48.680
<v Speaker 2>back to talk a super size limit for four to

2281
02:09:48.760 --> 02:09:52.840
<v Speaker 2>one ks and Trump's proposed tariffs could cost some US companies.

2282
02:09:53.319 --> 02:09:55.439
<v Speaker 2>Those two subjects next. It's eight thirteen right now. If

2283
02:09:55.439 --> 02:09:57.279
<v Speaker 2>if you I have care, see the talk station. I'll

2284
02:09:57.319 --> 02:10:03.600
<v Speaker 2>be right back. Fifty five the talk station. Jud just

2285
02:10:03.600 --> 02:10:07.279
<v Speaker 2>said it's bad. Don't get on the roads. You can

2286
02:10:07.319 --> 02:10:09.680
<v Speaker 2>avoid it. Brian James. Money. Money is Brian James from

2287
02:10:09.720 --> 02:10:13.039
<v Speaker 2>Allworth Finantre. We're talking well finances, and I want to

2288
02:10:13.079 --> 02:10:16.720
<v Speaker 2>do the second one first. This I am more confused

2289
02:10:16.880 --> 02:10:20.000
<v Speaker 2>having read the new four oh one K rules after

2290
02:10:20.039 --> 02:10:22.760
<v Speaker 2>the USA Today article I just finished reading than I

2291
02:10:22.920 --> 02:10:26.960
<v Speaker 2>was when I started reading. It is the average human

2292
02:10:27.039 --> 02:10:29.640
<v Speaker 2>being supposed to understand how much money they can contribute

2293
02:10:29.680 --> 02:10:31.279
<v Speaker 2>to a four to one K given all the different

2294
02:10:31.319 --> 02:10:34.520
<v Speaker 2>breakdowns and subcategories and categories we have here in terms

2295
02:10:34.560 --> 02:10:36.960
<v Speaker 2>of you know, annual four oh one K savings and

2296
02:10:37.079 --> 02:10:40.720
<v Speaker 2>catch up contributions. I mean, this is baffling. But the

2297
02:10:41.000 --> 02:10:44.479
<v Speaker 2>number I'm reading here, can someone in any of these

2298
02:10:44.520 --> 02:10:48.119
<v Speaker 2>age groups that apply save up to thirty four thousand,

2299
02:10:48.399 --> 02:10:52.039
<v Speaker 2>seven hundred and fifty dollars for retirement next year in

2300
02:10:52.079 --> 02:10:53.439
<v Speaker 2>a four oh one K think what that would be

2301
02:10:53.479 --> 02:10:56.600
<v Speaker 2>this year. The answer is yes, yes.

2302
02:10:56.560 --> 02:10:57.319
<v Speaker 4>Apparently right.

2303
02:10:57.479 --> 02:11:00.439
<v Speaker 16>So honestly, this is all all the confusion, Bryan, is

2304
02:11:00.560 --> 02:11:03.920
<v Speaker 16>job security for me? If the Irs ever made things simple,

2305
02:11:04.079 --> 02:11:06.279
<v Speaker 16>or if Congress ever, you know, kind of tried to

2306
02:11:06.600 --> 02:11:09.159
<v Speaker 16>work a little harder to make things put things in English,

2307
02:11:09.199 --> 02:11:12.239
<v Speaker 16>then I don't have a job. So let's go over

2308
02:11:12.319 --> 02:11:13.760
<v Speaker 16>where we were so we can talk about what the

2309
02:11:13.840 --> 02:11:15.880
<v Speaker 16>changes are in twenty twenty four. If you had a

2310
02:11:15.960 --> 02:11:18.079
<v Speaker 16>four oh one K, then you were Everybody under the

2311
02:11:18.159 --> 02:11:19.720
<v Speaker 16>sun who had a four oh one K could put

2312
02:11:19.760 --> 02:11:23.039
<v Speaker 16>in twenty three thousand dollars. Whether that's wroth or traditional

2313
02:11:23.079 --> 02:11:25.079
<v Speaker 16>four oh one K didn't matter. It didn't matter what

2314
02:11:25.199 --> 02:11:27.720
<v Speaker 16>your age is. The limit for everybody was twenty three thousand.

2315
02:11:27.960 --> 02:11:30.680
<v Speaker 16>If you were over fifty, we've had something called the ketchup,

2316
02:11:30.760 --> 02:11:32.119
<v Speaker 16>but that's been around for a long time.

2317
02:11:32.399 --> 02:11:34.279
<v Speaker 4>That was an additional seventy five hundred.

2318
02:11:34.319 --> 02:11:36.880
<v Speaker 16>So in twenty twenty four, somebody fifty plus could put

2319
02:11:36.920 --> 02:11:38.119
<v Speaker 16>away thirty thousand.

2320
02:11:37.920 --> 02:11:38.800
<v Speaker 4>Five hundred dollars.

2321
02:11:39.479 --> 02:11:43.039
<v Speaker 16>New for this year is a super catchup contribution. Another

2322
02:11:43.159 --> 02:11:46.239
<v Speaker 16>flavor for everybody to remember. If you are age sixty

2323
02:11:46.319 --> 02:11:50.119
<v Speaker 16>to sixty three instead of seventy five hundred, you get

2324
02:11:50.159 --> 02:11:52.600
<v Speaker 16>to put in the thirty four thousand and seven to fifty,

2325
02:11:53.000 --> 02:11:57.000
<v Speaker 16>So now you're at the twenty three for everybody twenty

2326
02:11:57.039 --> 02:11:59.479
<v Speaker 16>three and a half. That is actually the standard limit

2327
02:11:59.520 --> 02:12:02.079
<v Speaker 16>went up by five hundred bucks to twenty three five hundred.

2328
02:12:02.319 --> 02:12:06.359
<v Speaker 16>Those over sixty but under sixty three are under sixty

2329
02:12:06.399 --> 02:12:09.359
<v Speaker 16>four rather are allowed an additional eleven two point fifty.

2330
02:12:09.560 --> 02:12:12.000
<v Speaker 16>That's a total of thirty four to seven fifty. If

2331
02:12:12.039 --> 02:12:14.880
<v Speaker 16>you're sixty four or turning sixty four this year, you

2332
02:12:14.960 --> 02:12:15.399
<v Speaker 16>don't get it.

2333
02:12:16.920 --> 02:12:19.520
<v Speaker 4>So this is the other confusing part. What the old

2334
02:12:19.640 --> 02:12:23.039
<v Speaker 4>ketchup job security again, Brian? Job security for me? Right,

2335
02:12:23.119 --> 02:12:27.279
<v Speaker 4>let's talk about what's important here. So but what I.

2336
02:12:29.319 --> 02:12:31.520
<v Speaker 2>Mean, the older you get, the more likely it is

2337
02:12:31.720 --> 02:12:33.920
<v Speaker 2>you should be able to get it. I mean, usually

2338
02:12:33.960 --> 02:12:37.239
<v Speaker 2>your highest income earning years are older. So why would

2339
02:12:37.319 --> 02:12:39.920
<v Speaker 2>someone who's sixty five and still gainfully employed and not

2340
02:12:40.000 --> 02:12:41.520
<v Speaker 2>be able to chuck board a four oh one k

2341
02:12:41.680 --> 02:12:42.680
<v Speaker 2>if that's what they want.

2342
02:12:42.560 --> 02:12:45.880
<v Speaker 16>To do, you would have to ask your friendly neighborhood

2343
02:12:45.880 --> 02:12:47.720
<v Speaker 16>actuary as to why this was a good idea. So

2344
02:12:47.800 --> 02:12:51.399
<v Speaker 16>what you've just pointed out is the ketchup contribution applies

2345
02:12:51.600 --> 02:12:54.119
<v Speaker 16>two different times in your life. Currently, it applies from

2346
02:12:54.159 --> 02:12:56.720
<v Speaker 16>ages fifty to fifty nine, and then from sixty to

2347
02:12:56.800 --> 02:12:59.479
<v Speaker 16>sixty three you have the super catchup. And then currently,

2348
02:12:59.600 --> 02:13:02.000
<v Speaker 16>from when you become sixty four and older you go

2349
02:13:02.079 --> 02:13:04.000
<v Speaker 16>back to the old catch up super Ketchup.

2350
02:13:04.359 --> 02:13:06.079
<v Speaker 4>Does that understand? Does that help you understand?

2351
02:13:06.479 --> 02:13:09.640
<v Speaker 2>I mean I do have an understanding of it. It

2352
02:13:09.720 --> 02:13:13.680
<v Speaker 2>just doesn't make any sense when you practically talk about

2353
02:13:13.720 --> 02:13:16.560
<v Speaker 2>it in real life. You know, terms like wait a second,

2354
02:13:16.640 --> 02:13:19.079
<v Speaker 2>how come it's you know, up to sixty four and

2355
02:13:19.239 --> 02:13:22.039
<v Speaker 2>that shuts off after age sixty four. Someone explained that

2356
02:13:22.119 --> 02:13:23.279
<v Speaker 2>to me, and I know you're not going to be

2357
02:13:23.319 --> 02:13:26.199
<v Speaker 2>capable of or in a position to do that. But

2358
02:13:27.239 --> 02:13:29.720
<v Speaker 2>super Ketchup. That sounds like the thing you buy at Costco,

2359
02:13:29.880 --> 02:13:32.479
<v Speaker 2>the giant size ketchup as opposed to the regular.

2360
02:13:32.439 --> 02:13:33.760
<v Speaker 4>The generic version of the ketchup.

2361
02:13:33.840 --> 02:13:33.960
<v Speaker 10>Yep.

2362
02:13:34.039 --> 02:13:35.920
<v Speaker 2>Well, and the other thing is, now this will apply

2363
02:13:36.079 --> 02:13:40.439
<v Speaker 2>to me since I am fifty nine. I turned sixty

2364
02:13:40.520 --> 02:13:45.359
<v Speaker 2>in September, I still qualify for this age sixty through

2365
02:13:45.520 --> 02:13:49.600
<v Speaker 2>sixty three super Ketchup because I turned sixty in the

2366
02:13:49.720 --> 02:13:50.439
<v Speaker 2>calendar year.

2367
02:13:51.479 --> 02:13:52.119
<v Speaker 4>That is correct.

2368
02:13:52.159 --> 02:13:54.840
<v Speaker 16>But you will, you will be sixty by twelve thirty one. Therefore,

2369
02:13:55.000 --> 02:13:58.039
<v Speaker 16>this is a super ketchup year, not the regular ketchup

2370
02:13:58.079 --> 02:13:59.159
<v Speaker 16>for you the good kind.

2371
02:14:02.079 --> 02:14:05.600
<v Speaker 2>Okay, And I know there's a WROTH provision in here too,

2372
02:14:05.800 --> 02:14:09.880
<v Speaker 2>but roths are only available to people within certain income levels.

2373
02:14:09.960 --> 02:14:14.520
<v Speaker 16>Correct, that's correct. Yeah, so that's kind of correct. Here's

2374
02:14:14.520 --> 02:14:16.520
<v Speaker 16>another fun thing too. So, yes, there is an income

2375
02:14:16.600 --> 02:14:20.640
<v Speaker 16>limitation on WROTH contributions, and that's in the range for

2376
02:14:21.000 --> 02:14:23.039
<v Speaker 16>the perry depending on how you know, whether you're married,

2377
02:14:23.039 --> 02:14:24.520
<v Speaker 16>whether you're single, so forth, it's in the range of

2378
02:14:24.560 --> 02:14:27.399
<v Speaker 16>say two hundred thousand dollars something like that. But the

2379
02:14:27.640 --> 02:14:30.880
<v Speaker 16>fun thing there is that you can do what's called

2380
02:14:30.920 --> 02:14:35.600
<v Speaker 16>a backdoor WROTH conversion because there are no income limitations

2381
02:14:35.680 --> 02:14:40.439
<v Speaker 16>on converting traditional or pre tax assets from a pretax

2382
02:14:40.520 --> 02:14:43.359
<v Speaker 16>IRA to a WROTH. So the trick there is you

2383
02:14:43.479 --> 02:14:46.960
<v Speaker 16>make a non deductible traditional IRA contribution.

2384
02:14:47.119 --> 02:14:48.720
<v Speaker 4>This is not new, this is an old thing, been

2385
02:14:48.720 --> 02:14:49.279
<v Speaker 4>around for a while.

2386
02:14:49.560 --> 02:14:53.199
<v Speaker 16>Make a non deductible traditional IRA contribution and then immediately

2387
02:14:53.359 --> 02:14:55.880
<v Speaker 16>convert that and then you wind up with the exact

2388
02:14:55.920 --> 02:14:57.880
<v Speaker 16>same result. So if you may, if you're married, you

2389
02:14:57.920 --> 02:15:00.560
<v Speaker 16>make over two hundred one thousand dollars, then you are

2390
02:15:00.840 --> 02:15:04.239
<v Speaker 16>not able to make a ROTH IRA contribution. However, you

2391
02:15:04.399 --> 02:15:08.359
<v Speaker 16>can make a pretax non deductible contribution and then convert

2392
02:15:08.439 --> 02:15:11.359
<v Speaker 16>that and get the exact same outcome. And what's really

2393
02:15:11.439 --> 02:15:13.520
<v Speaker 16>crazy about this, Brian, this was this started off as

2394
02:15:13.520 --> 02:15:15.840
<v Speaker 16>a loophole, but eventually the IRS said, yeah, you know what,

2395
02:15:15.920 --> 02:15:17.399
<v Speaker 16>you guys, this is fine, go ahead and keep doing it.

2396
02:15:17.479 --> 02:15:20.239
<v Speaker 16>So rather than just removing the income limitation on a

2397
02:15:20.319 --> 02:15:22.880
<v Speaker 16>ROTH contribution, they've simply said that if you file a

2398
02:15:22.960 --> 02:15:25.239
<v Speaker 16>couple more pieces of paper on your IRA, you can

2399
02:15:25.319 --> 02:15:26.359
<v Speaker 16>get the same end result.

2400
02:15:27.520 --> 02:15:31.800
<v Speaker 2>God, that is so insane. And I you know, you

2401
02:15:31.920 --> 02:15:34.800
<v Speaker 2>call it a loophole. If it's written that way, I

2402
02:15:34.880 --> 02:15:37.359
<v Speaker 2>don't consider it a loophole. I mean I consider that

2403
02:15:37.439 --> 02:15:40.159
<v Speaker 2>the intended consequence of any legislation that comes down the pike,

2404
02:15:40.279 --> 02:15:42.880
<v Speaker 2>because they wrote it that way, to the extent they

2405
02:15:42.880 --> 02:15:46.800
<v Speaker 2>didn't consider something one way or another. It's not it's

2406
02:15:46.840 --> 02:15:50.039
<v Speaker 2>not illegal or anything, but it's just something that's built

2407
02:15:50.079 --> 02:15:52.520
<v Speaker 2>into the tax provisions or in this particular case, the

2408
02:15:52.600 --> 02:16:00.279
<v Speaker 2>IRA provisions. Ryan. Just anyway, this is.

2409
02:16:00.239 --> 02:16:02.199
<v Speaker 4>Why we talk on Monday morning. It is all of

2410
02:16:02.279 --> 02:16:03.720
<v Speaker 4>this out for the listening public.

2411
02:16:03.960 --> 02:16:06.159
<v Speaker 2>It is well, talk to your financial planner. To the

2412
02:16:06.199 --> 02:16:09.600
<v Speaker 2>extent you don't have one, I recommend getting one anyhow,

2413
02:16:10.720 --> 02:16:13.680
<v Speaker 2>Trump's proposed tariffs. I have heard and read so much

2414
02:16:14.159 --> 02:16:17.159
<v Speaker 2>about Trump's proposed tariffs. I mean, he every other day

2415
02:16:17.199 --> 02:16:20.359
<v Speaker 2>he comes out with another tariff he's proposing. I think,

2416
02:16:20.439 --> 02:16:24.279
<v Speaker 2>you know, it seems to be getting some traction in

2417
02:16:24.439 --> 02:16:28.399
<v Speaker 2>terms of global affairs. I know the Mexico's president now

2418
02:16:28.439 --> 02:16:31.119
<v Speaker 2>plans on working with the Trump administration in terms of

2419
02:16:31.239 --> 02:16:33.680
<v Speaker 2>taking back some of the illegal immigrants he wants to

2420
02:16:33.760 --> 02:16:38.079
<v Speaker 2>send over, certainly in part because of threats of tariffs.

2421
02:16:38.120 --> 02:16:42.959
<v Speaker 2>And I see Trudeau's getting ready to resign in Canada,

2422
02:16:43.000 --> 02:16:45.079
<v Speaker 2>and one of the concerns they have in Canada is

2423
02:16:45.159 --> 02:16:48.680
<v Speaker 2>tariffs on Canadian goods. But this transcends that, and we're

2424
02:16:48.680 --> 02:16:54.600
<v Speaker 2>talking Chinese goods primarily. China is obviously a difficult competitor globally.

2425
02:16:54.680 --> 02:16:57.959
<v Speaker 2>They don't have any OSHA rules, they have slave labor,

2426
02:16:58.079 --> 02:17:00.920
<v Speaker 2>they don't have minimum wage, so it's a lot more

2427
02:17:00.959 --> 02:17:04.040
<v Speaker 2>difficult to compete with the Chinese companies. So, at least conceptually,

2428
02:17:04.399 --> 02:17:08.079
<v Speaker 2>I understand wanting to perhaps teariff Chinese products, which we've

2429
02:17:08.120 --> 02:17:10.840
<v Speaker 2>all gotten used to because they are so inexpensive compared

2430
02:17:10.879 --> 02:17:14.040
<v Speaker 2>to anything that we make here. What's your take on this,

2431
02:17:14.159 --> 02:17:16.120
<v Speaker 2>because some people are all in favor of this for

2432
02:17:16.200 --> 02:17:17.920
<v Speaker 2>some of the reasons I mentioned, and some people think

2433
02:17:17.920 --> 02:17:21.680
<v Speaker 2>it's going to ruin the economy. Do you have any

2434
02:17:21.879 --> 02:17:23.920
<v Speaker 2>personal thoughts on this or anything.

2435
02:17:23.920 --> 02:17:26.840
<v Speaker 16>Well, I mean, in terms of the impact here, it's

2436
02:17:26.920 --> 02:17:29.520
<v Speaker 16>really kind of the same discussion as when I'm doing

2437
02:17:29.559 --> 02:17:32.040
<v Speaker 16>a financial plan for somebody. What are your priorities, right,

2438
02:17:32.079 --> 02:17:34.639
<v Speaker 16>what's the most important thing to you? And what I

2439
02:17:34.719 --> 02:17:36.920
<v Speaker 16>mean by that is, if you are someone who says,

2440
02:17:36.959 --> 02:17:38.639
<v Speaker 16>you know what, the United States has just got to

2441
02:17:38.680 --> 02:17:41.159
<v Speaker 16>get more competitive because twenty thirty years from now we're

2442
02:17:41.200 --> 02:17:42.520
<v Speaker 16>not going to be able to be at the same

2443
02:17:42.600 --> 02:17:44.520
<v Speaker 16>level that we currently are, then you might say that

2444
02:17:44.600 --> 02:17:47.760
<v Speaker 16>it's worth laying tariffs against especially China, for the reasons

2445
02:17:47.799 --> 02:17:50.360
<v Speaker 16>you just mentioned. It's a lot easier for China to

2446
02:17:50.440 --> 02:17:53.520
<v Speaker 16>produce goods more cheaply than it is here because of

2447
02:17:53.559 --> 02:17:56.280
<v Speaker 16>all the rules we have. However, if you're somebody who says,

2448
02:17:56.360 --> 02:17:58.399
<v Speaker 16>you know what, inflation is the thing that's the thing

2449
02:17:58.479 --> 02:18:00.559
<v Speaker 16>we've got to focus on, not going to be in

2450
02:18:00.639 --> 02:18:02.799
<v Speaker 16>favor of these things, because there's no way to have

2451
02:18:02.959 --> 02:18:03.879
<v Speaker 16>our cake and eat it too.

2452
02:18:04.600 --> 02:18:05.920
<v Speaker 4>We can't reduce it.

2453
02:18:06.159 --> 02:18:09.159
<v Speaker 16>We can't attack China with tariffs without having any kind

2454
02:18:09.200 --> 02:18:11.840
<v Speaker 16>of inflationary impact, and heaven knows, we've seen plenty of

2455
02:18:11.879 --> 02:18:13.920
<v Speaker 16>it in the last few years. So it really just

2456
02:18:13.959 --> 02:18:16.120
<v Speaker 16>depends on what you feel is the most important, what's

2457
02:18:16.159 --> 02:18:18.639
<v Speaker 16>the best for your situation. If you are a small

2458
02:18:18.680 --> 02:18:22.399
<v Speaker 16>business owner who imports goods, who imports natural resources and

2459
02:18:22.479 --> 02:18:24.920
<v Speaker 16>things from China that you need, you're probably not real

2460
02:18:25.000 --> 02:18:26.159
<v Speaker 16>excited about these tariffs.

2461
02:18:26.239 --> 02:18:26.319
<v Speaker 10>Right.

2462
02:18:26.360 --> 02:18:28.760
<v Speaker 16>On the other hand, you know, you might you might

2463
02:18:28.799 --> 02:18:31.200
<v Speaker 16>be if you're a company that competes directly with China,

2464
02:18:31.360 --> 02:18:33.200
<v Speaker 16>then you might feel a little bit differently.

2465
02:18:33.600 --> 02:18:36.559
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I just the whole idea. It's an artificial tinkering

2466
02:18:36.600 --> 02:18:39.680
<v Speaker 2>with the market. But it's brought about because we have, well,

2467
02:18:40.559 --> 02:18:44.280
<v Speaker 2>I guess, pretty healthy trade relations with China, for example.

2468
02:18:44.319 --> 02:18:46.520
<v Speaker 2>We've gotten used to it. I mean I always just

2469
02:18:46.600 --> 02:18:48.479
<v Speaker 2>kind of wonder. I mean, had we treated China the

2470
02:18:48.479 --> 02:18:50.719
<v Speaker 2>way we treated the Soviet Union, we wouldn't even be

2471
02:18:50.760 --> 02:18:53.719
<v Speaker 2>having this discussion because we wouldn't be trading with them, period,

2472
02:18:53.799 --> 02:18:56.840
<v Speaker 2>end of story. Yeah. I re read this article this morning,

2473
02:18:57.479 --> 02:19:00.200
<v Speaker 2>our national security advisor telling us that China couldased just

2474
02:19:00.280 --> 02:19:02.639
<v Speaker 2>flip the switch and shut down our entire electric grid,

2475
02:19:02.719 --> 02:19:07.559
<v Speaker 2>given how much it's infected our our infrastructure with software

2476
02:19:07.639 --> 02:19:10.680
<v Speaker 2>and things like that, that is an enemy of ours.

2477
02:19:10.719 --> 02:19:12.719
<v Speaker 2>So if we just quit trading with them, period, And

2478
02:19:12.799 --> 02:19:15.680
<v Speaker 2>I understand the practical effect of just shutting off that

2479
02:19:15.799 --> 02:19:19.079
<v Speaker 2>light swhich is impossibility, but I mean, we have to

2480
02:19:19.120 --> 02:19:21.760
<v Speaker 2>contend with them on some way. But we've just gotten

2481
02:19:21.879 --> 02:19:26.440
<v Speaker 2>I think, fat and happy on cheap Chinese made stuff.

2482
02:19:27.440 --> 02:19:28.000
<v Speaker 2>I think you're.

2483
02:19:27.879 --> 02:19:30.120
<v Speaker 16>Exactly right, and I use the term on these airwaves

2484
02:19:30.159 --> 02:19:32.719
<v Speaker 16>pretty frequently, that we are the United States of profit margin.

2485
02:19:32.959 --> 02:19:35.959
<v Speaker 16>The one thing for how whether we've actively decided this

2486
02:19:36.200 --> 02:19:38.799
<v Speaker 16>or just passively by not objecting to it, the one

2487
02:19:38.879 --> 02:19:41.079
<v Speaker 16>thing we will not touch is the ability of our

2488
02:19:41.120 --> 02:19:43.639
<v Speaker 16>publicly traded companies to make money, because that's how we

2489
02:19:43.760 --> 02:19:46.719
<v Speaker 16>all get richer. I'm not saying that's good, bad, or indifferent.

2490
02:19:46.760 --> 02:19:49.040
<v Speaker 16>I'm just saying that's the decision that we've made. That's

2491
02:19:49.079 --> 02:19:51.120
<v Speaker 16>why it was not hard at all to cut off

2492
02:19:51.239 --> 02:19:53.319
<v Speaker 16>Russia because they were never a huge trading partner, and

2493
02:19:53.399 --> 02:19:56.559
<v Speaker 16>Russia never made the moves that China has to become

2494
02:19:56.680 --> 02:19:58.959
<v Speaker 16>a major player on the on the kind of overall

2495
02:19:59.040 --> 02:20:02.520
<v Speaker 16>world economics. They don't make plastic garbage that they can

2496
02:20:02.600 --> 02:20:05.639
<v Speaker 16>sell for nothing and undercut everybody else China does.

2497
02:20:06.040 --> 02:20:08.239
<v Speaker 4>So therefore, you know, look at the things you're buying

2498
02:20:08.280 --> 02:20:08.760
<v Speaker 4>on Amazon.

2499
02:20:08.760 --> 02:20:10.319
<v Speaker 16>If you're looking for a phone charger, how many of

2500
02:20:10.319 --> 02:20:12.040
<v Speaker 16>those you think you're actually made in the United States.

2501
02:20:12.079 --> 02:20:14.159
<v Speaker 16>The ones that are made the United States are probably

2502
02:20:14.200 --> 02:20:17.360
<v Speaker 16>four or five times more expensive, probably maybe a little

2503
02:20:17.399 --> 02:20:19.399
<v Speaker 16>better quality. That's a different topic. But if you're simply

2504
02:20:19.440 --> 02:20:22.000
<v Speaker 16>going for cheap, cheap, cheap, that's China. That's what they've

2505
02:20:22.040 --> 02:20:24.159
<v Speaker 16>been doing for one hundred years when they figured out

2506
02:20:24.200 --> 02:20:26.760
<v Speaker 16>that that's a way to get under the skin of

2507
02:20:26.799 --> 02:20:29.280
<v Speaker 16>the United States, and we're addicted to it. You know,

2508
02:20:29.319 --> 02:20:32.520
<v Speaker 16>if you've been bringing in cheap products and cheap components

2509
02:20:32.559 --> 02:20:34.079
<v Speaker 16>for whatever it is that you build, then it's going

2510
02:20:34.159 --> 02:20:35.719
<v Speaker 16>to be real hard to give that up.

2511
02:20:36.040 --> 02:20:38.239
<v Speaker 2>Well, it certainly is. And I'm just wondering, are these

2512
02:20:38.280 --> 02:20:40.479
<v Speaker 2>tariffs going to apply to all the like, for example,

2513
02:20:40.600 --> 02:20:43.120
<v Speaker 2>rare earth minerals that are brought into this country through

2514
02:20:43.280 --> 02:20:46.879
<v Speaker 2>China to build electric vehicles or to wherever that happen

2515
02:20:46.920 --> 02:20:49.319
<v Speaker 2>to the electric vehicles have to be built. We don't

2516
02:20:49.440 --> 02:20:52.000
<v Speaker 2>have our own because our own environmental laws won't allow

2517
02:20:52.079 --> 02:20:54.120
<v Speaker 2>us to extract them even though it's right there in

2518
02:20:54.200 --> 02:20:57.920
<v Speaker 2>front of our faces. So I don't know, I'm just

2519
02:20:58.000 --> 02:21:01.040
<v Speaker 2>confused by the whole thing. But did you apolitical? The

2520
02:21:01.319 --> 02:21:04.639
<v Speaker 2>realities of the world have changed dramatically since Nixon normalized

2521
02:21:04.680 --> 02:21:08.680
<v Speaker 2>trade relations with China. They weren't a sworn enemy back then.

2522
02:21:08.799 --> 02:21:11.079
<v Speaker 2>They were you know, a second world at best country.

2523
02:21:11.680 --> 02:21:15.040
<v Speaker 2>And clearly they've moved ahead in advance significantly and seek

2524
02:21:15.120 --> 02:21:17.040
<v Speaker 2>to compete with America on a globe on you know,

2525
02:21:17.440 --> 02:21:20.120
<v Speaker 2>directly on a global scale, and pretty successful at doing

2526
02:21:20.159 --> 02:21:22.079
<v Speaker 2>it because they don't have any regulations.

2527
02:21:22.159 --> 02:21:24.559
<v Speaker 4>Hmm, yeah, go figure.

2528
02:21:24.680 --> 02:21:27.159
<v Speaker 16>So if you think about it, it's almost a kind

2529
02:21:27.159 --> 02:21:30.280
<v Speaker 16>of a perfect capitalist story. They found a need that

2530
02:21:30.520 --> 02:21:33.280
<v Speaker 16>that that is out there, and people were willing to

2531
02:21:33.319 --> 02:21:35.479
<v Speaker 16>throw money at it. Happens to be here in this country,

2532
02:21:35.760 --> 02:21:38.280
<v Speaker 16>which where where our goal is is profit margin.

2533
02:21:38.360 --> 02:21:39.319
<v Speaker 4>That's our number one goal.

2534
02:21:39.399 --> 02:21:42.360
<v Speaker 16>So if they're they're the cheapest offering of whatever resources

2535
02:21:42.399 --> 02:21:43.920
<v Speaker 16>we need, it's going to be real hard to go

2536
02:21:44.000 --> 02:21:46.399
<v Speaker 16>against that number one goal and say that, you know,

2537
02:21:46.440 --> 02:21:48.879
<v Speaker 16>we're going to sacrifice these other things. Well, we always

2538
02:21:48.920 --> 02:21:52.000
<v Speaker 16>care about morality and how how how people are treated

2539
02:21:52.159 --> 02:21:54.799
<v Speaker 16>and you know, suffering and of course the Chinese people

2540
02:21:54.920 --> 02:21:58.079
<v Speaker 16>suffer mightily for lack of a lot of the regulatory

2541
02:21:58.120 --> 02:22:01.120
<v Speaker 16>struct infrastructure we have here, so maybe there's a moral

2542
02:22:01.200 --> 02:22:03.000
<v Speaker 16>argument that can be made for us paying more for

2543
02:22:03.280 --> 02:22:04.159
<v Speaker 16>Chinese products.

2544
02:22:04.440 --> 02:22:07.120
<v Speaker 2>Don't know, Brian James. Always a distinct pleasure to have

2545
02:22:07.200 --> 02:22:09.319
<v Speaker 2>you on the program on Mondays. I appreciate this segment.

2546
02:22:09.360 --> 02:22:11.360
<v Speaker 2>I'll look forward to next Monday for another edition of

2547
02:22:11.440 --> 02:22:13.879
<v Speaker 2>Money Monday, and be careful out there, my friend.

2548
02:22:14.760 --> 02:22:18.799
<v Speaker 4>Happy New Year and who day anyway, right, that's the.

2549
02:22:18.840 --> 02:22:21.760
<v Speaker 2>First time that came up this morning. Thanks Brian, eight

2550
02:22:21.840 --> 02:22:23.520
<v Speaker 2>twenty eight. Right now, if you have k s DE

2551
02:22:23.600 --> 02:22:26.159
<v Speaker 2>talk stations, stick around. We've got car Sea Cares coming up,

2552
02:22:26.159 --> 02:22:27.920
<v Speaker 2>Todd Sledge and since Ava is going to go over

2553
02:22:28.000 --> 02:22:30.120
<v Speaker 2>some topics with us at eight forty, I'll be right

2554
02:22:30.159 --> 02:22:34.200
<v Speaker 2>back fifty five KRC dot Com. The Simply Money Minute

2555
02:22:34.239 --> 02:22:38.840
<v Speaker 2>is sponsored by Emory Federick. Time for the nine first

2556
02:22:38.879 --> 02:22:42.159
<v Speaker 2>morning weather forecasts got one to five inches and I

2557
02:22:42.280 --> 02:22:44.680
<v Speaker 2>didn't saying this all morning, so maybe there's been accumulation

2558
02:22:44.760 --> 02:22:47.959
<v Speaker 2>out there since the show started, But as of this

2559
02:22:48.040 --> 02:22:50.239
<v Speaker 2>morning they expected one to five more inches beyond what

2560
02:22:50.360 --> 02:22:53.479
<v Speaker 2>we got. Today's high twenty eight would be mostly cloudia,

2561
02:22:53.520 --> 02:22:56.959
<v Speaker 2>very night, breezy and a low of eleven. Partly cloudy

2562
02:22:57.040 --> 02:22:59.440
<v Speaker 2>and breezy tomorrow with the high twenty six then overnight

2563
02:22:59.520 --> 02:23:02.399
<v Speaker 2>down this singular degrees. Wednesday is going to be a

2564
02:23:02.440 --> 02:23:05.079
<v Speaker 2>mostly cloudy day with a higher twenty four twenty three degrees.

2565
02:23:05.159 --> 02:23:06.719
<v Speaker 2>Right now, it's time for traffic update.

2566
02:23:07.040 --> 02:23:10.600
<v Speaker 11>Maybe you see up traffic center, you see healthway while

2571
02:23:23.479 --> 02:23:25.600
<v Speaker 2>That's due to a Jack Knight tractor trailer.

2575
02:23:35.000 --> 02:23:39.559
<v Speaker 2>See the talk station. It's a thirty two to fifty

2576
02:23:39.600 --> 02:23:41.879
<v Speaker 2>five kr CD talk station about happy Monday to you,

2577
02:23:42.680 --> 02:23:44.559
<v Speaker 2>still dust in some of the cob webs of vacation

2578
02:23:44.719 --> 02:23:48.479
<v Speaker 2>out of my head. And mentioned earlier the weather will

2579
02:23:48.559 --> 02:23:51.639
<v Speaker 2>not impact the certification of the election. And I said

2580
02:23:51.719 --> 02:23:54.559
<v Speaker 2>something about Donald Trump going quickly to work after some

2581
02:23:54.680 --> 02:23:57.319
<v Speaker 2>time at one after one pm and the election certified,

2582
02:23:57.559 --> 02:24:01.040
<v Speaker 2>signing executive orders. No, it's swearing in has to happen first, Brian.

2583
02:24:01.760 --> 02:24:05.319
<v Speaker 2>So just twice I screwed up this morning. For those

2584
02:24:05.600 --> 02:24:10.440
<v Speaker 2>I'm keeping track, I myself am keeping track this morning.

2585
02:24:10.440 --> 02:24:12.360
<v Speaker 2>I may have screwed up more than that. Feel free

2586
02:24:12.399 --> 02:24:13.959
<v Speaker 2>to call me and let me know if I've screwed up.

2587
02:24:13.959 --> 02:24:15.920
<v Speaker 2>Five went three, seven, four, nine fifty five hundred, eight

2588
02:24:16.000 --> 02:24:17.840
<v Speaker 2>hundred and eighty two to three talk pound five fifty

2589
02:24:17.840 --> 02:24:20.559
<v Speaker 2>on AT and T funds. Beyond that, we've got local

2590
02:24:20.600 --> 02:24:25.479
<v Speaker 2>stories here and westside. Jim pointed out the Democratic High

2591
02:24:25.479 --> 02:24:29.760
<v Speaker 2>Representative Cecil Thomas was on the on a program over

2592
02:24:29.799 --> 02:24:33.879
<v Speaker 2>the weekend. Didn't come up his allegations or the complaint

2593
02:24:33.920 --> 02:24:36.959
<v Speaker 2>he fought against Hamilton County prosecuted Melissa Powers days before

2594
02:24:37.000 --> 02:24:40.479
<v Speaker 2>the November election, obviously in an effort to well sabotage

2595
02:24:41.760 --> 02:24:44.959
<v Speaker 2>or campaign. Whether it had any impact on the outcome,

2596
02:24:45.040 --> 02:24:47.840
<v Speaker 2>we know Connie Pillach won first Democrat to hold the

2597
02:24:47.879 --> 02:24:51.920
<v Speaker 2>prosecutor's office in nearly a century. Sad day for Hamilton County,

2598
02:24:52.040 --> 02:24:57.239
<v Speaker 2>but you the voters decided anyway. Special prosecutor assigned to

2599
02:24:57.239 --> 02:25:00.520
<v Speaker 2>the allegations file by Cecil Thomas, determined that they are

2600
02:25:00.799 --> 02:25:05.680
<v Speaker 2>entirely baseless. Thirteen page report filed last week by Claremont

2601
02:25:05.719 --> 02:25:09.760
<v Speaker 2>County Prosecutor Mark Deculvey, appointed last month as special prosecutor

2602
02:25:09.799 --> 02:25:13.319
<v Speaker 2>in this issue, also found Thomas's sworn affidavit in support

2603
02:25:13.360 --> 02:25:17.760
<v Speaker 2>of his claims was filed in bad faith. Powers released

2604
02:25:17.799 --> 02:25:19.799
<v Speaker 2>the statement after this report came out. She said, it

2605
02:25:19.879 --> 02:25:23.000
<v Speaker 2>was shameful that these allegations were taken seriously by anyone

2606
02:25:23.200 --> 02:25:25.360
<v Speaker 2>from the start. This was nothing more than a politically

2607
02:25:25.440 --> 02:25:29.799
<v Speaker 2>motivated hit designed to influence the outcome this November's elections,

2608
02:25:29.840 --> 02:25:32.559
<v Speaker 2>and it has been dismissed correctly for the sham that

2609
02:25:32.639 --> 02:25:32.920
<v Speaker 2>it is.

2610
02:25:34.479 --> 02:25:34.600
<v Speaker 14>Now.

2611
02:25:34.680 --> 02:25:42.520
<v Speaker 2>Specifically, Thomas filed the allegations on November one. He alleged

2612
02:25:44.159 --> 02:25:47.559
<v Speaker 2>without facts, the Powers, who was a former juvenile court

2613
02:25:47.639 --> 02:25:51.399
<v Speaker 2>judge as well as prosecutor, backdated a court entry in

2614
02:25:51.520 --> 02:25:54.920
<v Speaker 2>a case back in twenty twenty one. Powers, for her parts,

2615
02:25:55.280 --> 02:25:59.520
<v Speaker 2>she simply corrected a clerical error so that the juvenile

2616
02:25:59.600 --> 02:26:03.239
<v Speaker 2>had the right to appeal one of her decisions. Sounds

2617
02:26:03.280 --> 02:26:05.360
<v Speaker 2>to me like it would benefit of the juvenile anyway.

2618
02:26:06.040 --> 02:26:09.399
<v Speaker 2>Special Prosecutor to Coffee's investigation found that the Hamilton County

2619
02:26:09.479 --> 02:26:14.200
<v Speaker 2>Juvenile Courts computer system does not allow users to backdate entries,

2620
02:26:14.840 --> 02:26:17.639
<v Speaker 2>and if Powers had wanted information on the docket change,

2621
02:26:18.120 --> 02:26:20.040
<v Speaker 2>she would have had to first request it in writing,

2622
02:26:20.159 --> 02:26:23.159
<v Speaker 2>and there was no such request in the case, according

2623
02:26:23.159 --> 02:26:25.360
<v Speaker 2>to the conclusions in the report, So she didn't do

2624
02:26:25.399 --> 02:26:30.840
<v Speaker 2>anything wrong. I guess Cecil Thomas made it up. Another

2625
02:26:30.920 --> 02:26:33.319
<v Speaker 2>fun fact I've done. To go to all the details.

2626
02:26:33.440 --> 02:26:36.760
<v Speaker 2>Scott Wortman from the Inquire listed all the salaries the

2627
02:26:36.799 --> 02:26:41.440
<v Speaker 2>twenty highest paid county employee salaries one through six. Numbers

2628
02:26:41.479 --> 02:26:46.840
<v Speaker 2>one through six deputy corners. They make between two hundred

2629
02:26:46.840 --> 02:26:48.879
<v Speaker 2>and eighty plus grand down to two hundred and forty

2630
02:26:48.920 --> 02:26:52.120
<v Speaker 2>one plus grand, followed by the president's last CEO of

2631
02:26:52.200 --> 02:26:56.559
<v Speaker 2>Mental Health and Recovery Services, Leonora Godfrey, who makes two

2632
02:26:56.559 --> 02:26:59.440
<v Speaker 2>to twenty five. They go down from there, but I

2633
02:26:59.479 --> 02:27:04.879
<v Speaker 2>thought was really interesting the actual corner doctor, Lakite Lakshimi Somarco.

2634
02:27:06.840 --> 02:27:09.520
<v Speaker 2>She's making about one hundred grand less than the deputy

2635
02:27:09.639 --> 02:27:12.760
<v Speaker 2>corner sharing's one hundred and fifty three nine and eighty

2636
02:27:12.760 --> 02:27:16.159
<v Speaker 2>four dollars a year. Apparently because she's an elected official,

2637
02:27:16.200 --> 02:27:18.719
<v Speaker 2>her salary is set by state law and is based

2638
02:27:18.840 --> 02:27:22.840
<v Speaker 2>on the county's population side. So just a little fun fact.

2639
02:27:22.840 --> 02:27:24.520
<v Speaker 2>I kind of feel sorry for her on some level,

2640
02:27:25.479 --> 02:27:29.879
<v Speaker 2>or maybe the deputy corners are making too much. I'll

2641
02:27:29.920 --> 02:27:32.520
<v Speaker 2>let you draw your own conclusions and conclusions we will

2642
02:27:32.559 --> 02:27:35.520
<v Speaker 2>draw on the Cincinntiva. Todd Sledge returns to talk about

2643
02:27:35.600 --> 02:27:38.639
<v Speaker 2>some information we had to impart to our veteran friends

2644
02:27:38.680 --> 02:27:40.639
<v Speaker 2>out in the audience. Hope you can stick around for that.

2645
02:27:40.799 --> 02:27:41.360
<v Speaker 2>That'll be next.

2646
02:27:41.799 --> 02:27:45.360
<v Speaker 13>This is fifty five KARC, an iHeartRadio station.

2647
02:27:45.639 --> 02:27:46.319
<v Speaker 2>At U Line.

2648
02:27:46.680 --> 02:27:47.719
<v Speaker 4>They know first handway.

2649
02:27:47.760 --> 02:27:50.239
<v Speaker 2>Welcome back to the fifty five KRC Morning Show in

2650
02:27:50.319 --> 02:27:53.479
<v Speaker 2>a very happy new year to you, Todd Sledge from

2651
02:27:53.479 --> 02:27:56.559
<v Speaker 2>the Cincinntiva and everyone at the VA who's helping out

2652
02:27:56.920 --> 02:27:59.040
<v Speaker 2>my veteran friends in the audience. Good to have you

2653
02:27:59.120 --> 02:27:59.799
<v Speaker 2>back on this year.

2654
02:28:01.760 --> 02:28:03.799
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, Brian, happy new year to you as well, and

2655
02:28:04.200 --> 02:28:07.040
<v Speaker 3>glad to be back on here at twenty twenty five

2656
02:28:07.159 --> 02:28:11.040
<v Speaker 3>and make sure that we're getting all the information out

2657
02:28:11.079 --> 02:28:14.239
<v Speaker 3>through our veterans that are needed. As we are, we're

2658
02:28:14.280 --> 02:28:18.760
<v Speaker 3>constantly changing, seems like over the last twelve to eighteen months.

2659
02:28:18.799 --> 02:28:22.000
<v Speaker 2>That is for certain, constant changes and hopefully all for

2660
02:28:22.079 --> 02:28:24.079
<v Speaker 2>the better for the American veterans that you serve, and

2661
02:28:24.479 --> 02:28:26.440
<v Speaker 2>I trust that you guys had the snowplows and the

2662
02:28:26.520 --> 02:28:29.440
<v Speaker 2>shovels out around your VA facilities for this morning.

2663
02:28:30.600 --> 02:28:33.120
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, we're I've been working hard this morning to get

2664
02:28:33.159 --> 02:28:35.520
<v Speaker 3>make sure we get information out. We just we just

2665
02:28:35.600 --> 02:28:38.719
<v Speaker 3>had a report about everything. Where all of our sites

2666
02:28:38.719 --> 02:28:44.600
<v Speaker 3>are open and operational. Hospitals, got operations going on, and yeah,

2667
02:28:44.639 --> 02:28:48.600
<v Speaker 3>they're diligently working to get things clean.

2668
02:28:48.680 --> 02:28:52.040
<v Speaker 2>And actually we had kudos to our veterans. They're diligent.

2669
02:28:52.159 --> 02:28:55.200
<v Speaker 3>We had folks that were scheduled for surgeries today and

2670
02:28:55.600 --> 02:28:58.239
<v Speaker 3>they were there. It's six thirty in the morning.

2671
02:28:58.879 --> 02:29:00.799
<v Speaker 2>That's great. That's great. I'd be that.

2672
02:29:01.040 --> 02:29:03.600
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, we got our staff in there. We made some

2673
02:29:03.879 --> 02:29:07.120
<v Speaker 3>turned our auditorium into a respite location. First staff to

2674
02:29:07.120 --> 02:29:08.440
<v Speaker 3>stay overnight, to have food.

2675
02:29:08.200 --> 02:29:08.879
<v Speaker 15>And all that stuff.

2676
02:29:08.959 --> 02:29:11.239
<v Speaker 2>Oh no, kidding. Yeah, Joe Dreger had to run a

2677
02:29:11.280 --> 02:29:13.479
<v Speaker 2>hotel room last night so he could make it to

2678
02:29:13.520 --> 02:29:15.639
<v Speaker 2>work this morning. And I drove in Ato a quarter

2679
02:29:15.680 --> 02:29:17.760
<v Speaker 2>to three this morning, and he made the right decision.

2680
02:29:17.799 --> 02:29:20.200
<v Speaker 2>The roads were absolutely horrific as I was coming in

2681
02:29:20.200 --> 02:29:22.840
<v Speaker 2>at least the route I took, so and he had

2682
02:29:22.840 --> 02:29:27.399
<v Speaker 2>absol moving away from the snow issues. Let's talk about

2683
02:29:27.879 --> 02:29:30.760
<v Speaker 2>the five benefits that every veteran should be aware of

2684
02:29:31.040 --> 02:29:34.440
<v Speaker 2>and ask about what are these five essential VA benefits?

2685
02:29:35.399 --> 02:29:37.399
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, Brian, so you know, I'm always trying to find

2686
02:29:37.479 --> 02:29:41.600
<v Speaker 3>creative ways to uh to motivate veterans to take a

2687
02:29:41.680 --> 02:29:44.959
<v Speaker 3>look at all of their available benefits and resources to them.

2688
02:29:45.040 --> 02:29:47.120
<v Speaker 3>And really what I've come down to is there's five

2689
02:29:47.280 --> 02:29:53.239
<v Speaker 3>essential benefits that veterans should be aware of an acquiring of.

2690
02:29:53.399 --> 02:29:54.879
<v Speaker 2>And typically what I.

2691
02:29:54.959 --> 02:29:58.840
<v Speaker 3>Find is this is that amongst these five veterans take

2692
02:29:58.920 --> 02:30:01.840
<v Speaker 3>full advantage of using the home their their home loan

2693
02:30:01.959 --> 02:30:02.520
<v Speaker 3>to buy a home.

2694
02:30:03.200 --> 02:30:03.879
<v Speaker 2>That's a benefit.

2695
02:30:04.079 --> 02:30:06.559
<v Speaker 3>Oh, you take advantage of the take advantage of the

2696
02:30:06.639 --> 02:30:12.760
<v Speaker 3>GI bill to get educational vocational opportunities in that regard.

2697
02:30:12.840 --> 02:30:16.040
<v Speaker 3>But then when it comes to healthcare, when it comes

2698
02:30:16.079 --> 02:30:20.840
<v Speaker 3>to filing a claim, a compensation claim for whatever conditions ailments,

2699
02:30:21.319 --> 02:30:25.639
<v Speaker 3>mental health, combination of physical and burial benefits, these three

2700
02:30:25.680 --> 02:30:29.719
<v Speaker 3>boxes they just sometimes go unchecked. And these are these

2701
02:30:29.760 --> 02:30:33.840
<v Speaker 3>are in my opinion, every these other three boxes. The healthcare,

2702
02:30:34.600 --> 02:30:37.680
<v Speaker 3>the possible compensation and benefits that are not only for

2703
02:30:37.760 --> 02:30:40.879
<v Speaker 3>the veteran but also for their family as well. And

2704
02:30:40.959 --> 02:30:43.520
<v Speaker 3>then the burial benefits. These are things that just go

2705
02:30:43.680 --> 02:30:46.799
<v Speaker 3>look on that all veterans should be inquiring about at

2706
02:30:46.920 --> 02:30:49.360
<v Speaker 3>least see where do I get, what do I get?

2707
02:30:49.639 --> 02:30:53.079
<v Speaker 3>How do I use them? And then particularly for those

2708
02:30:53.200 --> 02:30:56.680
<v Speaker 3>veterans that are you know, fifty years of age or younger,

2709
02:30:56.840 --> 02:31:00.360
<v Speaker 3>don't wait till later on, you know, get enrolled, have

2710
02:31:00.520 --> 02:31:02.600
<v Speaker 3>access to the care that you need when you need it,

2711
02:31:02.600 --> 02:31:05.600
<v Speaker 3>because you never know when your circumstances change. And what

2712
02:31:05.719 --> 02:31:07.920
<v Speaker 3>we see more and more is our veterans that are

2713
02:31:07.959 --> 02:31:10.799
<v Speaker 3>in their mid to mid seventies to late seventies even

2714
02:31:10.879 --> 02:31:15.280
<v Speaker 3>eighties never needed VA healthcare for other reasons, life changes.

2715
02:31:16.159 --> 02:31:18.719
<v Speaker 3>We're the only healthcare option that they have. They could

2716
02:31:18.760 --> 02:31:20.200
<v Speaker 3>have been using US for a very long time.

2717
02:31:21.079 --> 02:31:24.840
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, is it correct to say that the senior veterans

2718
02:31:24.879 --> 02:31:27.120
<v Speaker 2>and that you know, the's age groups over sixty five,

2719
02:31:27.399 --> 02:31:30.399
<v Speaker 2>they're not eligible for Medicare and because they get VA benefits.

2720
02:31:31.799 --> 02:31:34.719
<v Speaker 3>Yes, there there that is. It's well, they can still

2721
02:31:34.760 --> 02:31:39.319
<v Speaker 3>have Medicare. They can still have Medicare. The VA just

2722
02:31:39.399 --> 02:31:43.319
<v Speaker 3>won't build Medicare as part of their billing process as

2723
02:31:43.360 --> 02:31:43.680
<v Speaker 3>they do it.

2724
02:31:43.760 --> 02:31:44.079
<v Speaker 2>They won't.

2725
02:31:44.159 --> 02:31:46.559
<v Speaker 3>It's it's like a you know, a federal double dipping

2726
02:31:47.280 --> 02:31:49.760
<v Speaker 3>in that process, but they can still have Medicare and

2727
02:31:50.000 --> 02:31:51.360
<v Speaker 3>use VA, they just don't build it.

2728
02:31:51.799 --> 02:31:57.120
<v Speaker 2>Oh okay, I see. Well, in terms of the healthcare

2729
02:31:58.360 --> 02:32:01.360
<v Speaker 2>the there's a lot of little extra perks, and we've

2730
02:32:01.440 --> 02:32:03.520
<v Speaker 2>talked about these a lot over the years, todd Sledge.

2731
02:32:04.239 --> 02:32:06.159
<v Speaker 2>A lot of extra perks that you know, kind of

2732
02:32:06.200 --> 02:32:08.440
<v Speaker 2>fly under the radar for some folks, like you know,

2733
02:32:08.959 --> 02:32:11.600
<v Speaker 2>when you're in employment aids, like you pointed out, you know,

2734
02:32:11.719 --> 02:32:13.920
<v Speaker 2>don't wait till you know when veterans under fifty you

2735
02:32:13.920 --> 02:32:15.840
<v Speaker 2>should go ahead and enroll because you know, there's all

2736
02:32:15.879 --> 02:32:18.360
<v Speaker 2>these little perks out there, like hearing aids, for example,

2737
02:32:18.799 --> 02:32:21.479
<v Speaker 2>you can get those paid for compliments of the VA

2738
02:32:21.680 --> 02:32:23.600
<v Speaker 2>and not have to dip into your pocket under your

2739
02:32:23.600 --> 02:32:24.520
<v Speaker 2>health insurance plan.

2740
02:32:24.680 --> 02:32:24.760
<v Speaker 10>Right.

2741
02:32:24.840 --> 02:32:26.559
<v Speaker 2>I mean that's just one illustration of it.

2742
02:32:27.600 --> 02:32:27.760
<v Speaker 4>Yeah.

2743
02:32:27.840 --> 02:32:30.399
<v Speaker 3>The three main ones that I focus on all the time, Brian,

2744
02:32:30.479 --> 02:32:34.760
<v Speaker 3>and thanks for pointing that out is hearing aids, eyeglasses,

2745
02:32:35.399 --> 02:32:38.840
<v Speaker 3>and then any type of prosthetics. You know, you know,

2746
02:32:39.040 --> 02:32:42.760
<v Speaker 3>things can Prosthetics can range from a foot a boot

2747
02:32:42.840 --> 02:32:45.760
<v Speaker 3>that goes on your foot, to crutches, two different kinds

2748
02:32:45.799 --> 02:32:49.079
<v Speaker 3>of things there. These are very costly areas of things

2749
02:32:49.159 --> 02:32:51.360
<v Speaker 3>that you know, veterans shouldn't be spending a lot of

2750
02:32:51.399 --> 02:32:54.159
<v Speaker 3>money on I've ran into numerous veterans who have spent

2751
02:32:54.879 --> 02:32:58.719
<v Speaker 3>thousands and thousands of dollars on eyeglasses and prescriptions and

2752
02:32:59.280 --> 02:33:02.040
<v Speaker 3>hearing aids when we can make these things available to

2753
02:33:02.239 --> 02:33:05.440
<v Speaker 3>them at either no cost or a very minimum cost

2754
02:33:05.520 --> 02:33:06.479
<v Speaker 3>to the private sector.

2755
02:33:07.040 --> 02:33:08.200
<v Speaker 2>And that's the other benefit.

2756
02:33:08.680 --> 02:33:11.520
<v Speaker 3>You know, there's many miss and misconceptions out there that

2757
02:33:11.719 --> 02:33:14.920
<v Speaker 3>you know, veterans cannot have private health insurance and use

2758
02:33:15.000 --> 02:33:17.760
<v Speaker 3>the VA. You can. It's a huge benefit to have

2759
02:33:19.000 --> 02:33:22.239
<v Speaker 3>our mental health services. There's no restriction on the number

2760
02:33:22.280 --> 02:33:25.680
<v Speaker 3>of times you can have sessions or receive treatment, whether

2761
02:33:25.760 --> 02:33:29.840
<v Speaker 3>that's inpatient or outpatient. And then of course you know

2762
02:33:29.920 --> 02:33:34.760
<v Speaker 3>the pharmacy. You know, our prescription rates for certain medications

2763
02:33:34.799 --> 02:33:37.159
<v Speaker 3>that may be very very costly to veterans in the

2764
02:33:37.239 --> 02:33:40.200
<v Speaker 3>private sector. We can help them save some money in that.

2765
02:33:40.360 --> 02:33:42.959
<v Speaker 3>So there's there's a lot of ancillary benefits.

2766
02:33:43.000 --> 02:33:43.159
<v Speaker 10>You know.

2767
02:33:43.280 --> 02:33:45.479
<v Speaker 3>One of the things I think other too, Brian, is

2768
02:33:45.520 --> 02:33:47.559
<v Speaker 3>that some veterans feel like, well, if I start using

2769
02:33:47.639 --> 02:33:50.360
<v Speaker 3>the VA, I need to turn all of my health

2770
02:33:50.399 --> 02:33:51.239
<v Speaker 3>care over to VA.

2771
02:33:52.120 --> 02:33:52.920
<v Speaker 4>That's not the case.

2772
02:33:53.799 --> 02:33:56.040
<v Speaker 3>The big thing to remember, these are benefits We're not

2773
02:33:56.159 --> 02:33:59.520
<v Speaker 3>an insurance based healthcare provider. These are benefits to veterans.

2774
02:34:00.000 --> 02:34:01.559
<v Speaker 2>All right, let's pause. We'll bring Todd Sledge from the

2775
02:34:01.559 --> 02:34:04.280
<v Speaker 2>SINCINNTIVA back and a few more questions for you about

2776
02:34:04.319 --> 02:34:06.639
<v Speaker 2>these benefits. I know you have some additional information to

2777
02:34:06.719 --> 02:34:08.920
<v Speaker 2>pass along, so we'll pause for a moment and be

2778
02:34:09.040 --> 02:34:12.079
<v Speaker 2>right back. Stick around Beugh KR CD Talk station. You know,

2779
02:34:12.159 --> 02:34:14.159
<v Speaker 2>I love the American veterans. Thank God for each and

2780
02:34:14.200 --> 02:34:15.840
<v Speaker 2>every one of you in your service to our country.

2781
02:34:15.920 --> 02:34:18.840
<v Speaker 2>And Todd Sledge from the SINCINNIVA helping out veterans every

2782
02:34:18.879 --> 02:34:21.280
<v Speaker 2>single day making sure they understand that they are have

2783
02:34:21.479 --> 02:34:25.360
<v Speaker 2>they have VA benefits available to them, regularly reminding the

2784
02:34:25.440 --> 02:34:27.559
<v Speaker 2>veterans out there with the DD two to fourteen honorable

2785
02:34:27.600 --> 02:34:31.280
<v Speaker 2>Discharge to sign up for those benefits and take advantage

2786
02:34:31.360 --> 02:34:33.920
<v Speaker 2>of them. And Todd, I've gotten in trouble many times

2787
02:34:34.000 --> 02:34:35.680
<v Speaker 2>before by saying come on, as it was part of

2788
02:34:35.719 --> 02:34:38.959
<v Speaker 2>your salary. You know there's a lot of Obviously financially,

2789
02:34:39.000 --> 02:34:40.760
<v Speaker 2>it's going to take the edge off of so many

2790
02:34:40.799 --> 02:34:45.399
<v Speaker 2>things you mentioned. The hearing aids, the eyeglasses, the prosthetics, prescriptions,

2791
02:34:45.479 --> 02:34:50.319
<v Speaker 2>all of those are available to you. They're just you

2792
02:34:50.319 --> 02:34:52.200
<v Speaker 2>don't need to break it down specifically, and I'm gonna

2793
02:34:52.200 --> 02:34:54.200
<v Speaker 2>put you on the spot, Todd, but there are some

2794
02:34:54.440 --> 02:34:57.840
<v Speaker 2>financial cutoffs, like for wealthy veterans out there, that they

2795
02:34:57.920 --> 02:35:01.319
<v Speaker 2>don't necessarily get the benefits. I always want to clear

2796
02:35:01.399 --> 02:35:03.079
<v Speaker 2>the record up on that because I've said that so

2797
02:35:03.200 --> 02:35:03.760
<v Speaker 2>many times.

2798
02:35:04.959 --> 02:35:07.680
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, Brian, you know the way legislatively that the VA

2799
02:35:07.840 --> 02:35:10.280
<v Speaker 3>set up is that veterans do have to go through

2800
02:35:10.280 --> 02:35:14.319
<v Speaker 3>an eligibility process to be enrolled in VA healthcare. And

2801
02:35:14.440 --> 02:35:20.040
<v Speaker 3>there is a if veterans don't have a service compensation benefit,

2802
02:35:20.399 --> 02:35:27.719
<v Speaker 3>a non service connected pension benefit, or there's other criteria

2803
02:35:27.920 --> 02:35:33.200
<v Speaker 3>that is very specific to waiving any other exemptions. There

2804
02:35:33.360 --> 02:35:37.200
<v Speaker 3>is a over the income threshold four veterans that would

2805
02:35:37.280 --> 02:35:40.920
<v Speaker 3>not make them eligible for VA Healthcare. And so what's

2806
02:35:40.959 --> 02:35:43.000
<v Speaker 3>important about that? And I'm glad you bring that up.

2807
02:35:43.159 --> 02:35:45.760
<v Speaker 3>This is where we want veterans to be able to

2808
02:35:45.920 --> 02:35:50.440
<v Speaker 3>be filing for any type of service connected related compensation

2809
02:35:51.840 --> 02:35:54.479
<v Speaker 3>opportunities that are available to them. And when I said

2810
02:35:54.479 --> 02:35:56.879
<v Speaker 3>about us changing so much in the last twelve to

2811
02:35:56.959 --> 02:36:00.520
<v Speaker 3>eighteen months, this is where the Packed Act really came in.

2812
02:36:00.639 --> 02:36:05.319
<v Speaker 3>The toxic exposure requirements of things I've seen veterans who

2813
02:36:05.440 --> 02:36:10.920
<v Speaker 3>were not eligible before for VA healthcare become eligible because

2814
02:36:11.000 --> 02:36:14.479
<v Speaker 3>of the long list of different toxins in those presumptive

2815
02:36:14.680 --> 02:36:19.120
<v Speaker 3>editions that were not recognized previously. Is now made veterans

2816
02:36:19.159 --> 02:36:22.120
<v Speaker 3>become eligible. And then on top of that, veterans that

2817
02:36:22.360 --> 02:36:25.440
<v Speaker 3>are service connected at a lower level, let's say they

2818
02:36:25.520 --> 02:36:28.879
<v Speaker 3>were maybe initially service connected for ten or twenty percent

2819
02:36:29.520 --> 02:36:35.040
<v Speaker 3>related to their service. The Pact Act has significantly increased

2820
02:36:35.680 --> 02:36:38.840
<v Speaker 3>some of those percentages for veterans. One of the many

2821
02:36:38.920 --> 02:36:41.159
<v Speaker 3>examples that I've seen as veterans went from a lower

2822
02:36:41.200 --> 02:36:45.719
<v Speaker 3>percentage to a higher percentage above seventy percent. And what

2823
02:36:45.879 --> 02:36:49.479
<v Speaker 3>that then does is it now provides long term care

2824
02:36:49.520 --> 02:36:53.319
<v Speaker 3>at no cost for life. And then veterans also receive

2825
02:36:54.239 --> 02:36:58.280
<v Speaker 3>educational benefits for their children or for example, like eighty

2826
02:36:58.319 --> 02:37:00.680
<v Speaker 3>percent of in state tuition is covered.

2827
02:37:01.000 --> 02:37:01.200
<v Speaker 2>Wow.

2828
02:37:01.280 --> 02:37:04.399
<v Speaker 3>So again reasons to you know, just get to the

2829
02:37:04.600 --> 02:37:08.360
<v Speaker 3>right experts, the right offices, and just you know, look

2830
02:37:08.399 --> 02:37:09.639
<v Speaker 3>at everything that's available to you.

2831
02:37:09.799 --> 02:37:12.159
<v Speaker 2>Well, I'm glad you said that last part. Get the

2832
02:37:12.280 --> 02:37:15.360
<v Speaker 2>right experts, the right resources, because that really is what

2833
02:37:15.559 --> 02:37:18.440
<v Speaker 2>veteran service organizations are for, like the Claremont County Veteran

2834
02:37:18.479 --> 02:37:20.600
<v Speaker 2>Services I have them all the time. They can help

2835
02:37:20.639 --> 02:37:24.040
<v Speaker 2>you navigate these filings and these challenges that the veterans

2836
02:37:24.120 --> 02:37:27.040
<v Speaker 2>might be confused by and pursuing, you know, their available

2837
02:37:27.120 --> 02:37:28.079
<v Speaker 2>coverage or benefits.

2838
02:37:28.159 --> 02:37:31.440
<v Speaker 3>Rather. Yeah, that's absolutely true, you know, for you know

2839
02:37:31.680 --> 02:37:34.920
<v Speaker 3>the part that I represent all the time and working

2840
02:37:35.000 --> 02:37:37.040
<v Speaker 3>with you. We're on the healthcare side of things, and

2841
02:37:37.639 --> 02:37:41.879
<v Speaker 3>you know, primarily specifically to the healthcare eligibility, right, you

2842
02:37:42.159 --> 02:37:45.000
<v Speaker 3>want to contact our main office at five one three,

2843
02:37:45.680 --> 02:37:48.600
<v Speaker 3>four seven, five six, four nine nine. But many of

2844
02:37:48.680 --> 02:37:53.920
<v Speaker 3>those other benefits that I mentioned, looking at service connection possibilities,

2845
02:37:54.319 --> 02:38:00.559
<v Speaker 3>looking at non service connection possibilities, the educational benefits, the

2846
02:38:00.680 --> 02:38:05.840
<v Speaker 3>burial benefits. You know here particularly Hamilton County, Claremont County,

2847
02:38:05.959 --> 02:38:08.360
<v Speaker 3>and Butler County are the offices that we work with.

2848
02:38:09.440 --> 02:38:13.239
<v Speaker 3>They do phenomenal jobs. They've got great officers. I know

2849
02:38:13.280 --> 02:38:15.600
<v Speaker 3>a lot of times, you know, veterans and families come

2850
02:38:15.719 --> 02:38:19.959
<v Speaker 3>to those offices looking for immediate assistance, which again, if

2851
02:38:19.959 --> 02:38:21.840
<v Speaker 3>you're looking at claim stuff, that stuff's going to.

2852
02:38:21.840 --> 02:38:22.319
<v Speaker 4>Take a while.

2853
02:38:22.360 --> 02:38:25.600
<v Speaker 3>But those offices do so many other things. They offer

2854
02:38:25.879 --> 02:38:29.000
<v Speaker 3>financial assistance for those veterans that live in those counties,

2855
02:38:29.280 --> 02:38:33.360
<v Speaker 3>plus transportation services, so there's so many different things that

2856
02:38:33.799 --> 02:38:37.440
<v Speaker 3>are available, you know, to veterans that take advantage of that.

2857
02:38:38.000 --> 02:38:40.079
<v Speaker 3>You know, we want to continue to make them aware

2858
02:38:40.120 --> 02:38:40.639
<v Speaker 3>of right.

2859
02:38:40.680 --> 02:38:42.360
<v Speaker 2>And that's why I bring them up, because they do that.

2860
02:38:42.399 --> 02:38:45.399
<v Speaker 2>You're right. They do a fantastic, fantastic job for the veterans.

2861
02:38:45.719 --> 02:38:46.040
<v Speaker 4>All right.

2862
02:38:46.120 --> 02:38:49.159
<v Speaker 2>So for all age group veterans, how does a veteran

2863
02:38:49.239 --> 02:38:52.920
<v Speaker 2>get enrolled in VA Healthcare and then also remain actively enrolled?

2864
02:38:52.959 --> 02:38:55.639
<v Speaker 2>Is there additional steps you need to remain active once

2865
02:38:55.680 --> 02:38:56.559
<v Speaker 2>you have been enrolled?

2866
02:38:57.840 --> 02:39:01.559
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, So the worst artist is what I said before,

2867
02:39:01.680 --> 02:39:04.719
<v Speaker 3>is to start with our eligibility office. You call five one, three,

2868
02:39:05.440 --> 02:39:09.360
<v Speaker 3>four seven, five six, four nine nine. Those are directile

2869
02:39:09.440 --> 02:39:13.879
<v Speaker 3>lines to our eligibility staff. There is an online application

2870
02:39:14.040 --> 02:39:17.079
<v Speaker 3>that veterans can do and they find off the national websites.

2871
02:39:17.159 --> 02:39:20.319
<v Speaker 3>I don't encourage them to do that just because I'm

2872
02:39:20.360 --> 02:39:24.479
<v Speaker 3>going to be transparent. It's a bureaucratic system line of that,

2873
02:39:24.760 --> 02:39:27.680
<v Speaker 3>and I'd rather I'm still old school, Brian. I want

2874
02:39:27.719 --> 02:39:29.159
<v Speaker 3>to pick up the phone and I want to talk

2875
02:39:29.200 --> 02:39:32.159
<v Speaker 3>to someone on the other end and be able to

2876
02:39:32.200 --> 02:39:33.239
<v Speaker 3>ask the questions.

2877
02:39:32.959 --> 02:39:33.399
<v Speaker 10>That I want.

2878
02:39:33.520 --> 02:39:36.399
<v Speaker 3>So that's the eligibility route for that. And then once

2879
02:39:36.479 --> 02:39:38.840
<v Speaker 3>we get you enrolled. We really do want to see

2880
02:39:38.879 --> 02:39:41.760
<v Speaker 3>you if you're fully healthy and you don't really need services,

2881
02:39:41.840 --> 02:39:43.920
<v Speaker 3>but we do want to see you every year and

2882
02:39:44.079 --> 02:39:49.920
<v Speaker 3>to maintain your real active treatment plans all the prevention

2883
02:39:50.120 --> 02:39:53.079
<v Speaker 3>model based healthcare system. We really want to see you

2884
02:39:53.200 --> 02:39:57.000
<v Speaker 3>every two years, you know, so it will forecast that out.

2885
02:39:57.079 --> 02:39:58.760
<v Speaker 3>One of the complaints that we get a lot of

2886
02:39:58.840 --> 02:40:01.399
<v Speaker 3>times from our veterans is all, my goodness, do you

2887
02:40:01.559 --> 02:40:03.719
<v Speaker 3>remind me of all my appointments? I get a letter,

2888
02:40:03.879 --> 02:40:06.079
<v Speaker 3>I get a postcard, I get a text message, I

2889
02:40:06.159 --> 02:40:09.319
<v Speaker 3>get a phone call. So there's multiple ways that we

2890
02:40:09.639 --> 02:40:12.040
<v Speaker 3>do want to see you. But that's how you stay

2891
02:40:12.040 --> 02:40:14.040
<v Speaker 3>and remain active with us well.

2892
02:40:14.159 --> 02:40:16.120
<v Speaker 2>And it's all in your own best interest in terms

2893
02:40:16.159 --> 02:40:18.159
<v Speaker 2>of maintaining health. And you can get in front of

2894
02:40:18.200 --> 02:40:20.799
<v Speaker 2>a problem. It's a lot less costly for the American

2895
02:40:20.879 --> 02:40:22.840
<v Speaker 2>taxpayer to deal with and it's a lot better for

2896
02:40:22.959 --> 02:40:26.239
<v Speaker 2>you to get ahead of health problem. So you earned it.

2897
02:40:26.600 --> 02:40:30.399
<v Speaker 2>En Roll five one, three, four seven, five sixty four

2898
02:40:30.600 --> 02:40:33.000
<v Speaker 2>ninety nine. That's that's the number you call to talk

2899
02:40:33.040 --> 02:40:34.200
<v Speaker 2>with Todd or one of the crew over at the

2900
02:40:34.239 --> 02:40:37.239
<v Speaker 2>cincinna Va and get yourself enrolled in the benefits that

2901
02:40:37.280 --> 02:40:39.479
<v Speaker 2>you earned. Thank you all for your service to our country.

2902
02:40:39.520 --> 02:40:42.159
<v Speaker 2>And Todd, keep up the great work at the Cincinni VA.

2903
02:40:42.280 --> 02:40:44.000
<v Speaker 2>I know you're doing your best to help my veteran

2904
02:40:44.079 --> 02:40:44.959
<v Speaker 2>friends in the audience.

2905
02:40:45.920 --> 02:40:50.600
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, absolutely, Brian, we appreciate your collaboration and partnership. And yeah,

2906
02:40:50.760 --> 02:40:53.280
<v Speaker 3>last year, I just want to mention in twenty twenty

2907
02:40:53.360 --> 02:40:56.040
<v Speaker 3>four we saw the highest number of veterans we've ever

2908
02:40:56.120 --> 02:40:59.159
<v Speaker 3>sold in one year. So veterans were reaching out to

2909
02:40:59.280 --> 02:41:01.319
<v Speaker 3>us and taking it advantage of things they've worked before.

2910
02:41:01.399 --> 02:41:02.520
<v Speaker 3>So we're very happy about that.

2911
02:41:02.639 --> 02:41:05.319
<v Speaker 2>Well, to the extent I played any part in that role,

2912
02:41:05.399 --> 02:41:06.799
<v Speaker 2>it makes me just as proud as I can be

2913
02:41:06.920 --> 02:41:08.440
<v Speaker 2>to be in a position to spread the words. So

2914
02:41:08.600 --> 02:41:10.000
<v Speaker 2>keep up the great work. I know you and I

2915
02:41:10.079 --> 02:41:13.040
<v Speaker 2>have talked throughout the year about these important benefits. So

2916
02:41:13.159 --> 02:41:15.559
<v Speaker 2>getting rolled five one, three, four, seven, five, sixty four

2917
02:41:15.680 --> 02:41:18.200
<v Speaker 2>ninety nine. Happy New Year, Todd Sledge, you and everybody

2918
02:41:18.239 --> 02:41:20.239
<v Speaker 2>at the Cincinnati VA. Keep up the great work.
