WEBVTT 1 00:00:00.520 --> 00:00:03.040 You're twenty twenty four election headquarters. 2 00:00:03.399 --> 00:00:06.559 Your wrong economic nighte mare will very soon be over. 3 00:00:06.639 --> 00:00:10.199 It's going to be over fifty five krs the talk station. 4 00:00:10.720 --> 00:00:13.199 Good morning. Before we look ahead and look back at 5 00:00:13.240 --> 00:00:16.079 significant events and people tied to this particular date in 6 00:00:16.199 --> 00:00:21.160 history October seventh, including but not limited to these, and 7 00:00:21.239 --> 00:00:25.039 certainly including the small town boy from Seymour, Indiana, John Mellencamp, 8 00:00:25.039 --> 00:00:27.359 who's seventy three in. 9 00:00:27.559 --> 00:00:43.880 Small town, small town, having mountaown commute, my Friensis small town. 10 00:00:44.079 --> 00:00:50.880 The small towns like Chimney Rock, North Carolina, East Palestine, Ohio, 11 00:00:54.200 --> 00:01:00.920 home of thousands, even millions have forgotten Americans thirty days 12 00:01:01.039 --> 00:01:08.000 until decision day in the twenty twenty four election. But anyway, 13 00:01:08.560 --> 00:01:13.120 some historical notes from this particular day. Seventeen sixty five. 14 00:01:13.200 --> 00:01:18.079 The Stamp Act Congress, a forerunner of our representative form 15 00:01:18.120 --> 00:01:20.400 of government before we were a country, convened in New 16 00:01:20.480 --> 00:01:28.159 York to drop colonial grievances against England. Nineteen thirteen. It's very, 17 00:01:28.319 --> 00:01:33.319 very important. The first moving assembly line began operation at 18 00:01:33.319 --> 00:01:38.000 the Ford Motor Company in Highland Park, Michigan, the forerunner 19 00:01:38.040 --> 00:01:43.120 of all kinds of manufacturing in this country. Ford rolled 20 00:01:43.120 --> 00:01:47.719 it out first this day. In nineteen eighty five, Palestinian 21 00:01:47.760 --> 00:01:52.599 gunman hijacked the Italian cruise ship Achille Lauro in the Mediterranean. 22 00:01:53.400 --> 00:01:57.120 They shot and killed Leon Klinghoffer, a Jewish American tourist 23 00:01:57.120 --> 00:02:00.280 in a wheelchair, and pushed him overboard before if were 24 00:02:00.480 --> 00:02:05.840 surrendering a couple of days later. Isn't it funny how 25 00:02:06.159 --> 00:02:10.479 history repeats itself? Nineteen ninety two, on this date, trade 26 00:02:10.520 --> 00:02:13.520 representatives in the US, Canada, and Mexico initialed the North 27 00:02:13.560 --> 00:02:19.240 American Free Trade Agreement NAFTA during a ceremony in Texas 28 00:02:19.800 --> 00:02:23.280 in the presence of then President George H. W. Bush, 29 00:02:23.439 --> 00:02:29.319 Canadian Prime Minister Brian mulrooney, and Mexican President Carlos Selinas Digatory. 30 00:02:31.280 --> 00:02:35.800 This still debate over what kind of advancement that was 31 00:02:36.000 --> 00:02:39.360 or what kind of damage it did to the American economy. 32 00:02:39.919 --> 00:02:43.719 NAFTA this date. In nineteen ninety eight, Matthew Shepard, a 33 00:02:43.759 --> 00:02:46.960 gay college student, beaten and left tied to a wooden 34 00:02:47.000 --> 00:02:50.599 fence post outside of Laramie, Wyoming. He died five days later. 35 00:02:51.840 --> 00:02:56.080 The two who were serving life sentences for Shepherd's murderer 36 00:02:56.400 --> 00:03:01.840 still there. I guess But the Shepherd case was interesting 37 00:03:01.960 --> 00:03:08.439 because it initiated a lot of these hate crime legislations 38 00:03:09.199 --> 00:03:12.639 because the narrative at the time was that Shepherd was 39 00:03:12.719 --> 00:03:16.319 beaten and killed because he was gay, and that meant 40 00:03:16.520 --> 00:03:19.439 there needed to be enhanced charges and punishments for the 41 00:03:19.479 --> 00:03:25.080 two men who were convicted of beating Matthew Shepherd to death. 42 00:03:25.919 --> 00:03:28.800 The fact of the matter was it was a lie. 43 00:03:29.000 --> 00:03:35.840 Matthew Shepherd was beaten to death because of a bad 44 00:03:35.960 --> 00:03:38.599 drug deal, a drug deal gone bad, not because he 45 00:03:38.759 --> 00:03:44.520 was gay. I mean, I think if you murder someone 46 00:03:44.879 --> 00:03:48.000 in cold blood, it's a hate crime, don't get me wrong. 47 00:03:49.000 --> 00:03:50.919 But there were all kinds of laws that popped up 48 00:03:50.960 --> 00:03:54.960 all over the country after that with enhance punishments for 49 00:03:55.039 --> 00:03:57.439 hate crimes because you killed him because he was black, 50 00:03:57.479 --> 00:04:04.120 because he was gay. Interesting how that resonates when you 51 00:04:04.280 --> 00:04:10.039 understand the actual truth behind it. Matthew Shepherd's just as dead. 52 00:04:10.520 --> 00:04:13.599 But all of these hate crime laws, do we really 53 00:04:13.639 --> 00:04:17.000 need those on the books when we can't enforce the 54 00:04:17.079 --> 00:04:20.680 laws that are already there. The War in Afghanistan began 55 00:04:20.839 --> 00:04:23.480 as the United States and Britain launched air attacks against 56 00:04:23.560 --> 00:04:27.480 military targets in Osama Bin Lan's training camps in the 57 00:04:27.480 --> 00:04:30.279 wake of September eleventh, That, of course, was two thousand 58 00:04:30.279 --> 00:04:34.560 and one. Two years later, California voters recalled Governor Gray 59 00:04:34.680 --> 00:04:42.319 Davis and elected Arnold Schwarzenegger their new governor. And this 60 00:04:42.360 --> 00:04:48.680 is the big one. October seventh, last year, Hamas led 61 00:04:48.759 --> 00:04:54.560 militants launched air and ground attacks on Israel, killing almost 62 00:04:54.759 --> 00:04:59.439 twelve hundred taking more than two hundred and fifty hostages. 63 00:05:03.399 --> 00:05:06.560 The attacks, followed hours later by Israeli counterattacks, marked the 64 00:05:06.560 --> 00:05:12.199 beginning of the current war, the one that now only 65 00:05:12.319 --> 00:05:16.720 involves Israel and Jamas, a terrorist organization funded by Iran, 66 00:05:17.279 --> 00:05:22.639 but also has Bala in southern Lebanon, a terrorist organization 67 00:05:22.800 --> 00:05:28.079 funded by Iran, and the Uti rebels in Yemen, a 68 00:05:28.199 --> 00:05:38.879 terror organization funded by Iran. There need to be some 69 00:05:38.879 --> 00:05:43.319 some answers given to us, not just to the Israelis, 70 00:05:43.800 --> 00:05:49.920 but to the world about why we are helping fund 71 00:05:50.240 --> 00:05:55.000 Iran's terrorist funding in the Middle East. We've been doing 72 00:05:55.040 --> 00:05:58.279 it ever since Joe Biden took the oath of office 73 00:05:58.959 --> 00:06:03.759 in twenty twenty one with his vice president Kamala Harris, 74 00:06:03.800 --> 00:06:09.399 who's now running for president. In twenty twenty four, there 75 00:06:09.439 --> 00:06:14.879 need to be some serious answers and accountability. They talk 76 00:06:14.920 --> 00:06:19.199 about accountability a lot in official Washington these days, although 77 00:06:19.240 --> 00:06:25.759 we find very little of it actually at play. Need 78 00:06:25.800 --> 00:06:28.600 to hold Iran in their feet to the fire. I ran, 79 00:06:28.680 --> 00:06:32.279 by the way, a country which has officially been at 80 00:06:32.360 --> 00:06:37.360 war with our country. You could take Israel out of 81 00:06:37.360 --> 00:06:43.600 the equation with our country since nineteen seventy nine when 82 00:06:43.639 --> 00:06:51.519 they took our embassy over and took hostage Americans. Those 83 00:06:51.519 --> 00:07:01.560 hostages were there being humiliated, being incarcerated, being imprisoned by 84 00:07:01.600 --> 00:07:04.319 the Iranians and the IATOLA for four hundred and forty 85 00:07:04.319 --> 00:07:08.959 four days before they were released. With the inauguration of 86 00:07:09.040 --> 00:07:14.600 Ronald Reagan as our president. We act like we're not 87 00:07:14.639 --> 00:07:17.279 at war with Iran, but they are certainly at war 88 00:07:17.360 --> 00:07:23.040 with us, and have been for forty five years now. 89 00:07:28.160 --> 00:07:32.600 Never really did anything about it, got our hostages back, 90 00:07:34.560 --> 00:07:39.519 didn't get American sovereign soil back at embassy in Tehran, 91 00:07:41.879 --> 00:07:45.759 and the Iranian people have been subject to the totalitarian 92 00:07:46.639 --> 00:07:55.439 terrorist regime ever since. There has to be some accountability 93 00:07:56.600 --> 00:08:02.399 and in the years since Israel was a tact basically 94 00:08:02.439 --> 00:08:08.319 by Iran under the banner of hamas Americans in this 95 00:08:08.480 --> 00:08:18.399 country inexplicedly, and it's unexplainable that Americans have blamed Israel. 96 00:08:22.199 --> 00:08:26.160 Of course, the money and the power behind those protests 97 00:08:28.240 --> 00:08:35.360 is well in lockstep with Iran, because Israel should be 98 00:08:35.360 --> 00:08:45.080 punished simply because it exists. Besides Mellencamp today, on this 99 00:08:45.200 --> 00:08:50.159 October seventh, the birthday list includes comedian talk show host 100 00:08:50.720 --> 00:08:53.440 Joy Behar. Oh my god, I'd hate to share a 101 00:08:53.440 --> 00:08:59.519 birthday with that horrid woman. Tiko Torres, who is in 102 00:08:59.559 --> 00:09:03.399 Banjo heb seventy one, Cellus Yo yo Ma has a 103 00:09:03.399 --> 00:09:09.159 birthday today sixty nine, Simon Cowell off You Go is 104 00:09:09.200 --> 00:09:13.480 sixty five. Tony Braxton has a birthday tom Yorke who 105 00:09:13.519 --> 00:09:18.039 was in Radio Head, Nicole Aery Parker, football Hall of 106 00:09:18.039 --> 00:09:26.039 Famer Charles Woodson, and MLB outfielder Mooky Betts is thirty two. 107 00:09:27.000 --> 00:09:31.240 Let's hear it from Mooky. We'll be remembering what happened, 108 00:09:31.320 --> 00:09:35.320 what occurred a year ago, all morning long, and along 109 00:09:35.360 --> 00:09:39.720 the way, several guests here in the morning show. Our 110 00:09:39.720 --> 00:09:43.200 thoughts with Brian Thomas, who's not here today. I hope 111 00:09:43.200 --> 00:09:46.320 all is going well with him. Coming up on five 112 00:09:46.320 --> 00:09:49.759 point fifteen on a Monday, getting you started, and by 113 00:09:49.759 --> 00:09:51.840 the way, you want to chime in at any time 114 00:09:51.919 --> 00:09:55.279 on any topic. Five one, three, seven, four nine, fifty 115 00:09:55.320 --> 00:09:58.159 five hundred is the phone number. I'm Gary Jeff Walker 116 00:09:59.080 --> 00:10:02.919 filling in on fifty five KRC the talk station and 117 00:10:03.039 --> 00:10:06.159 five eighteen and a Monday morning, we remember October seventh. 118 00:10:07.320 --> 00:10:12.080 On October seventh, Gary jeffan for Brian this morning on 119 00:10:12.200 --> 00:10:22.440 fifty five KRC. The other major issue in our focus 120 00:10:22.480 --> 00:10:27.080 today has to be the rescue and relief efforts still 121 00:10:27.159 --> 00:10:34.120 ongoing in North Carolina and South Carolina, in Georgia, in Florida, 122 00:10:35.639 --> 00:10:42.039 little pieces of Tennessee as another hurricane Milton is now 123 00:10:42.080 --> 00:10:46.240 barreling towards Tampa, Florida, with its eye on the sunshine 124 00:10:46.240 --> 00:10:52.440 stay once again, just two weeks after Helene created such carnage. 125 00:10:54.519 --> 00:10:57.720 And before getting into the political side of this, let's 126 00:10:57.759 --> 00:11:06.759 talk about the human side of this. The stories continue 127 00:11:06.759 --> 00:11:13.480 to pour in as relief has been hard to get 128 00:11:13.519 --> 00:11:16.279 to some of the people affected by the aftermath of 129 00:11:16.320 --> 00:11:23.879 Helene because of many things, mostly geographical issues, but there 130 00:11:23.879 --> 00:11:27.639 were also issues as we now know, at the top 131 00:11:27.679 --> 00:11:33.759 of official Washington and FEMA and the current presidential administration, 132 00:11:33.879 --> 00:11:40.120 which of course includes Kamala Harris. But that being said, 133 00:11:41.320 --> 00:11:45.000 there are many agencies doing miraculous work, as you probably know, 134 00:11:45.320 --> 00:11:47.879 and you may have already donated to help that work 135 00:11:47.919 --> 00:11:51.600 continue to get the aid to people that need it 136 00:11:51.679 --> 00:11:56.679 so desperately, who have lost literally everything. Matthew twenty five 137 00:11:56.799 --> 00:12:01.960 ministries here locally, Samaritan Purse, Franklin Graham's Charity, and of 138 00:12:02.000 --> 00:12:04.840 course the American Red Cross, who are always on the 139 00:12:04.840 --> 00:12:08.639 front lines of disaster relief. They're all great organizations that 140 00:12:08.759 --> 00:12:14.279 truly do help people. And my wife and I will 141 00:12:14.320 --> 00:12:19.080 make our second donation later on today to Samaritans Purse 142 00:12:19.840 --> 00:12:22.799 after donating some money to the American Red Cross. And 143 00:12:22.840 --> 00:12:25.399 it doesn't have to be a whole lot of cash, 144 00:12:25.840 --> 00:12:31.039 if you got ten or twenty bucks, whatever you can 145 00:12:31.080 --> 00:12:38.399 do to help your fellow American citizens. One of the 146 00:12:38.440 --> 00:12:45.960 stories from Chimney Rock, North Carolina, from a volunteer firefighter, 147 00:12:46.080 --> 00:12:52.480 John Payne, who was responding to a possible gas leak 148 00:12:52.559 --> 00:12:56.919 when he noticed water spilling over US sixty four seventy four, 149 00:12:56.960 --> 00:13:01.080 the main road into that small town in rural North Carolina, 150 00:13:01.240 --> 00:13:04.080 just after seven o'clock in the morning. He said the 151 00:13:04.120 --> 00:13:08.960 actual hurricane hadn't even come through and hit. Yet he's 152 00:13:09.000 --> 00:13:15.200 lived in this valley his entire life. He said. He 153 00:13:15.320 --> 00:13:19.320 forgot about the call about a possible gas leak and 154 00:13:19.399 --> 00:13:21.399 went back up the hild of the fire station, which 155 00:13:21.440 --> 00:13:24.440 was moved to higher ground following a flood in nineteen 156 00:13:24.480 --> 00:13:33.559 ninety six, and the former fire chief, a guy named 157 00:13:33.600 --> 00:13:37.000 Buck Malisky, who'd worked that flood in ninety six, said 158 00:13:37.200 --> 00:13:41.080 there's no way it's hitting that early. But when Payne 159 00:13:41.120 --> 00:13:44.159 showed him a video that he'd just taken of water 160 00:13:44.240 --> 00:13:48.320 topping the bridge at the Hickory Nut Falls Family Campground, 161 00:13:50.200 --> 00:13:53.000 that's when the old man's jaw dropped. He said, We're 162 00:13:53.000 --> 00:13:57.440 in it for it, boys, We're in for it. Suddenly 163 00:13:57.480 --> 00:14:03.600 the ground beneath them began to shake, like you know 164 00:14:03.679 --> 00:14:08.320 what happens occasionally when tremors come through the valley, but 165 00:14:08.559 --> 00:14:11.919 a lot stronger than that. By then, muddy water was 166 00:14:11.960 --> 00:14:15.120 seeping under the back wall of that firehouse where they 167 00:14:15.120 --> 00:14:20.559 are standing talking about the fact that this is going 168 00:14:20.639 --> 00:14:28.559 to be very bad. John Payne looked down and saw 169 00:14:28.600 --> 00:14:31.960 what he askedmated to be a thirty foot high wall 170 00:14:32.039 --> 00:14:37.000 of water, tossing car sized boulders as it raced towards 171 00:14:37.039 --> 00:14:41.000 the town. He said it looked like the wave was 172 00:14:41.120 --> 00:14:47.639 just eating the houses and spitting them out. He observed, 173 00:14:47.679 --> 00:14:51.679 it's not water at that point, it's mud, concrete like material, 174 00:14:52.559 --> 00:14:57.480 and whatever it hits, it takes with it. A house 175 00:14:57.960 --> 00:15:01.840 hit the bridge where he'd been filming just twenty minutes earlier, 176 00:15:03.279 --> 00:15:09.080 he said, the span imploded. He later found the steel 177 00:15:09.200 --> 00:15:14.200 beams bent in the horseshoe shapes around boulders. Back at 178 00:15:14.200 --> 00:15:18.000 the firehouse, some business owners among the group that were 179 00:15:18.000 --> 00:15:24.799 there began crying hysterically. Others just stood in disbelief. They 180 00:15:24.960 --> 00:15:27.480 liked so many lost communications during the storm. But when 181 00:15:27.519 --> 00:15:30.399 the winds finally began to quiet down around eleven o'clock 182 00:15:30.480 --> 00:15:32.960 that morning, this is a span of four hours in 183 00:15:33.240 --> 00:15:37.559 Chimney Rock, North Carolina, the radios began blowing up with calls. 184 00:15:40.879 --> 00:15:43.559 The pieces of what had been Chimney Rock Village were 185 00:15:43.600 --> 00:15:50.000 now on their way to the neighboring town of Lake Lure. 186 00:15:50.919 --> 00:15:55.480 Tracy Stevens, a bartender at Hickory Nutt, took refuge at 187 00:15:55.519 --> 00:16:00.759 the Lake Lure Inn, where she also worked. She watched 188 00:16:02.840 --> 00:16:07.039 as what was left of chimney Rock and beyond came 189 00:16:07.080 --> 00:16:11.279 pouring into the marina, tossing boats around like they were toys, 190 00:16:11.279 --> 00:16:14.360 and thrusting metal sections of the floating town center walkway 191 00:16:16.200 --> 00:16:21.000 upward like the folds on a map. It looked like 192 00:16:21.080 --> 00:16:25.559 a toilet bowl flushing. I could see cars, tops of houses. 193 00:16:26.320 --> 00:16:30.559 It was absolutely the craziest thing I'd seen. And that's 194 00:16:30.720 --> 00:16:37.039 just two stories from two little towns in North Carolina. 195 00:16:37.159 --> 00:16:42.080 And those are the people that we must focus on. 196 00:16:44.159 --> 00:16:47.039 We're thirty days and away from an election, but really 197 00:16:48.440 --> 00:16:55.840 the focus has to be there. Kamala Harras finally visited 198 00:16:55.879 --> 00:17:03.440 on Saturday. Too little, too late, maybe, but when a 199 00:17:03.519 --> 00:17:08.799 natural disaster hits like this, you can put the blame 200 00:17:08.960 --> 00:17:15.799 anywhere you want, but it's a natural disaster. It's how 201 00:17:15.880 --> 00:17:19.880 you deal with it in the aftermath. And the federal government, 202 00:17:20.640 --> 00:17:24.240 the people that work for us, have failed miserably to 203 00:17:24.279 --> 00:17:30.720 this point. Seven hundred and fifty dollars a person, well, 204 00:17:30.839 --> 00:17:34.200 billions are being spent on I legal immigrants and a 205 00:17:34.240 --> 00:17:38.519 war in Ukraine that we should have no part in 206 00:17:38.920 --> 00:17:45.599 to begin with. It is absolutely disgusting, but it's on us. 207 00:17:46.640 --> 00:17:49.640 We've got to take it on so again. American Red 208 00:17:49.680 --> 00:17:55.640 Cross Samaritan's Purse Matthew twenty five Ministries five twenty six. 209 00:17:55.759 --> 00:17:59.880 On this Monday morning, October seventh, Gary Jeffen from Bryan 210 00:18:00.039 --> 00:18:02.200 on fifty five KRC, the talk station. 211 00:18:02.079 --> 00:18:02.680 What's the Best. 212 00:18:04.200 --> 00:18:08.440 Joe and I were speaking before the show. I'm just 213 00:18:08.480 --> 00:18:11.240 glad he's still speaking to me. But we were talking 214 00:18:11.319 --> 00:18:15.000 about trying to watch a football game or any kind 215 00:18:15.079 --> 00:18:20.400 of television, especially the last couple of weeks. And again 216 00:18:20.480 --> 00:18:24.359 we're thirty days out from the election day yet early 217 00:18:24.480 --> 00:18:27.839 voting begins in Ohio tomorrow. But he's talking about watching 218 00:18:27.880 --> 00:18:33.880 the Bengals game, and he noticed two spots, two commercials 219 00:18:33.880 --> 00:18:37.839 for Shared Brown back to back, and then two commercials 220 00:18:38.039 --> 00:18:42.440 for Bernie Marino, ha sentate opponent in Ohio, back to back, 221 00:18:42.640 --> 00:18:46.440 and then another Shared Brown commercial, all in the space 222 00:18:46.519 --> 00:18:53.000 of a few minutes. Overload. We're all experienced it, and 223 00:18:53.160 --> 00:18:57.200 especially the presidential election, which has actually been going. They 224 00:18:57.279 --> 00:19:00.960 keep on talking about it. It's the start of the 225 00:19:01.000 --> 00:19:04.720 longest running presidential election in American history or American memory. 226 00:19:06.119 --> 00:19:10.839 This presidential election began that this season, This campaign began 227 00:19:12.880 --> 00:19:15.480 the minute that they announced the winner of the last 228 00:19:15.640 --> 00:19:22.680 presidential election, who was debatable, Joe Biden. We've been living 229 00:19:22.720 --> 00:19:29.440 through campaign hell in this country now for almost four years. 230 00:19:31.279 --> 00:19:36.759 It just it's relentless, it doesn't stop. And I truly 231 00:19:36.839 --> 00:19:42.559 believe that this presidential election, it certainly shouldn't be close 232 00:19:42.599 --> 00:19:44.880 at all. But I don't think it's going to be close. 233 00:19:46.519 --> 00:19:50.200 If you actually count the votes of living people and 234 00:19:50.599 --> 00:19:53.799 people who are actual citizens of this country, it should 235 00:19:53.799 --> 00:19:59.000 be an overwhelming landslide for Donald Trump if you compare 236 00:19:59.519 --> 00:20:05.599 the two who administration's records on important issues that people 237 00:20:05.799 --> 00:20:09.839 say they care about the economy and they always care 238 00:20:09.880 --> 00:20:17.519 about the economy. Immigration, illegal immigration, which had slowed down 239 00:20:17.559 --> 00:20:22.640 to a trickle under Trump, and then the floodgates opened, 240 00:20:24.119 --> 00:20:29.519 almost like a hurricane, pouring in through our southern border, 241 00:20:29.519 --> 00:20:32.440 and now our northern borders being compromised like never before 242 00:20:32.480 --> 00:20:37.640 in this country. Anyway, back to my point, I think 243 00:20:38.720 --> 00:20:45.640 truly an overwhelming majority of American voters, citizen voters, are 244 00:20:45.640 --> 00:20:49.440 going to vote for Donald Trump and to not the 245 00:20:49.759 --> 00:20:58.200 anointed undemocrat, undemocratic democrat, leftist Kamala Harris, who stands for 246 00:20:58.279 --> 00:21:01.599 nothing and will tell you anything. Back to my point, 247 00:21:01.640 --> 00:21:06.400 though it has to be close, we have to be 248 00:21:06.480 --> 00:21:09.599 told over and over again by the pollsters, by the 249 00:21:09.640 --> 00:21:16.599 media that this is a razor thin margin, don't be complacent, 250 00:21:17.079 --> 00:21:19.200 And I agree you shouldn't be complacent, but I don't 251 00:21:19.240 --> 00:21:22.400 think it's that close. The reason they're telling us this 252 00:21:24.160 --> 00:21:28.119 and it's plain and simple, and it's the oldest reason 253 00:21:28.680 --> 00:21:33.920 that you get money in power, money from both parties, 254 00:21:34.440 --> 00:21:38.839 and believe me, millions upon millions, but billions of dollars 255 00:21:39.319 --> 00:21:41.640 if you count all the campaigns together, have flowed into 256 00:21:41.680 --> 00:21:45.480 the coffers of both Republican and Democrat candidates in this 257 00:21:45.559 --> 00:21:48.279 election and will continue to do so right up till 258 00:21:48.319 --> 00:21:53.400 election day. They don't want to miss out on those 259 00:21:53.440 --> 00:22:00.119 donations because if it's a foregone conclusion, one of the 260 00:21:59.799 --> 00:22:03.200 other is running away with it. All that money book 261 00:22:03.359 --> 00:22:11.599 drives up, it's not there anymore. And the media, of 262 00:22:11.640 --> 00:22:14.880 which I'm not proud to say I'm a member at 263 00:22:14.880 --> 00:22:19.160 this point right now, the media is complicit in this 264 00:22:19.279 --> 00:22:21.640 gas lighting and in this little dog and pony show 265 00:22:22.160 --> 00:22:26.039 that's called the twenty twenty four election because they get 266 00:22:26.200 --> 00:22:28.720 the benefit of all the money, or much of the 267 00:22:28.759 --> 00:22:31.440 money that is flowing into the conference of the Republican 268 00:22:31.480 --> 00:22:37.079 and the Democrat parties. The media is a benefactor and 269 00:22:37.200 --> 00:22:42.799 has an interest in claiming this is so close. Keep 270 00:22:42.799 --> 00:22:46.279 that money coming in, keep that ad money coming in. 271 00:22:46.359 --> 00:22:49.640 We need it, we need it, we want it. We'll 272 00:22:49.680 --> 00:22:52.519 tell him anything just so the money keeps flowing in. 273 00:22:54.200 --> 00:22:58.839 Pretty disgusting, really if you take time to think about it. 274 00:23:00.599 --> 00:23:05.200 But I guess it's nothing new. It's just more intense 275 00:23:05.880 --> 00:23:12.000 than ever seemingly. We have Chris Mithman with us around 276 00:23:12.000 --> 00:23:15.960 seven thirty this morning for his regular rant. We have 277 00:23:18.039 --> 00:23:22.000 a guy named Russell Mock. Judge Mock, you're probably familiar with, 278 00:23:23.839 --> 00:23:31.160 talking about the local race, particularly the Melissa Powers prosecutor race, 279 00:23:34.920 --> 00:23:38.440 representing the Republican Party. And we'll also have a couple 280 00:23:38.519 --> 00:23:41.359 of other guests along the way, including Mark Mix's president 281 00:23:41.359 --> 00:23:44.799 of National Right to Work talk about the just ended 282 00:23:45.640 --> 00:23:49.680 or at least paused dock workers strike, long shortman strike 283 00:23:51.200 --> 00:23:56.480 and whether this is over yet, and also Jennifer Breeman 284 00:23:57.920 --> 00:24:01.759 talking about candidate Bernie Marine, know who was in that 285 00:24:01.880 --> 00:24:04.640 battle with the Shared Brown we were just speaking of 286 00:24:05.759 --> 00:24:09.799 with all those darn TV ads. Five point thirty six 287 00:24:09.880 --> 00:24:12.519 coming up on a Monday morning, October seventh, Gary jeff 288 00:24:12.559 --> 00:24:15.759 In for Brian Thomas on fifty five KRC, the talk station. 289 00:24:16.240 --> 00:24:18.559 You know, the big wireless companies want you to overpay 290 00:24:18.599 --> 00:24:19.119 for data. 291 00:24:21.880 --> 00:24:28.480 Obviously, it's a clean slate on the interstates. We'll check 292 00:24:28.559 --> 00:24:31.319 back in in just a few coming up on well 293 00:24:31.359 --> 00:24:35.160 twenty minutes till the top of the hour and Gary 294 00:24:35.240 --> 00:24:41.880 jeff in for Brian. This morning, I was noticing that 295 00:24:42.960 --> 00:24:46.319 there was a well, this is from over the weekend. 296 00:24:46.400 --> 00:24:53.200 Actually leave. Initially the report came from Channel nine CPO 297 00:24:54.160 --> 00:24:59.000 out of Springfield, Ohio. A court has referred to County 298 00:24:59.079 --> 00:25:02.960 prosecutors criminal case brought to you by a citizens group 299 00:25:03.039 --> 00:25:07.960 against Donald Trump and JD Vance over their comments about 300 00:25:07.960 --> 00:25:12.599 Haitian immigrants, but the court did reject the groups called 301 00:25:12.680 --> 00:25:17.720 issue arrest warrants or misdemeanor summons. The Clark County Municipal 302 00:25:17.759 --> 00:25:21.759 Court found no probable cost to issue warrants or summons 303 00:25:21.759 --> 00:25:25.000 on misdemeanor charges against former President Donald Trump and his 304 00:25:25.119 --> 00:25:28.319 running mate Jade Vance. The matter then referred to the 305 00:25:28.400 --> 00:25:32.359 Clark County Prosecutor's office for further investigation. The problem is 306 00:25:32.400 --> 00:25:36.119 a group that represents the fifteen to twenty thousand Haitian 307 00:25:36.240 --> 00:25:42.720 immigrants who have flooded Springfield in the last three years, 308 00:25:43.119 --> 00:25:48.039 legally under a temporary protective order issued by the Biden administration. 309 00:25:49.400 --> 00:25:57.480 The Haitian Bridge Alliance, a nonprofit group representing the Haitian community, 310 00:25:58.279 --> 00:26:00.880 last month invoked a private city and right to file 311 00:26:01.000 --> 00:26:04.039 charges over the chaos and threats experience since Trump first 312 00:26:04.079 --> 00:26:08.079 spread false claims about illegal immigrants there during a presidential debate. 313 00:26:09.480 --> 00:26:12.599 Have you been to Springfield, Ohio lately? I'm just curious, 314 00:26:12.799 --> 00:26:17.960 have you. I was in Urbana, which is not far 315 00:26:18.000 --> 00:26:24.160 from sits right down the road from Springfield, a couple 316 00:26:24.160 --> 00:26:29.079 of weeks ago. It's been about three weeks, and what 317 00:26:29.200 --> 00:26:33.160 the guy told me, and that guy being a friend 318 00:26:33.759 --> 00:26:39.240 that I trust who lives in the area, was that 319 00:26:40.799 --> 00:26:46.000 the chaos has been caused by the temporarily legal Haitian 320 00:26:46.039 --> 00:26:48.279 immigrants who were in Springfield, and not by Donald Trump 321 00:26:48.359 --> 00:26:55.200 or JD. Vance. The chaos happens anytime you bring an 322 00:26:55.200 --> 00:26:58.519 extra twenty thousand people and drop them in a town 323 00:26:58.720 --> 00:27:05.480 of you know, fifty five thousand or whatever. You just 324 00:27:05.519 --> 00:27:10.240 brought in a third of what is there now in 325 00:27:10.400 --> 00:27:14.680 just a few years. But anyway, the Haitian Bridge Alliance 326 00:27:17.279 --> 00:27:20.680 wants them to be prosecuted Donald Trump and JD. Vance 327 00:27:20.720 --> 00:27:26.599 for things that they said. The persistence and rest relentlessness, 328 00:27:26.640 --> 00:27:28.759 even the face of the governor and the mayor saying 329 00:27:28.839 --> 00:27:34.200 this is false, That shows intent, it's knowing, wilful flouting 330 00:27:34.240 --> 00:27:39.799 of criminal law. Meanwhile, the Trump Advance campaign said the 331 00:27:39.839 --> 00:27:43.119 former president was rightfully highlighting the failed immigration system that 332 00:27:43.240 --> 00:27:46.920 Vice President Kamala Harris has overseen, bringing thousands of illegal 333 00:27:46.920 --> 00:27:51.920 immigrants pouring into communities like Springfield and many others across 334 00:27:52.240 --> 00:27:58.920 the country. Fifteen to twenty thousand. What would happen if 335 00:28:00.400 --> 00:28:03.640 in just a few years time, fifteen to twenty thousand 336 00:28:03.680 --> 00:28:10.119 people who don't know your culture, don't know your language, 337 00:28:10.319 --> 00:28:18.400 we're just dumped in your town. Say you say you 338 00:28:18.440 --> 00:28:23.000 live in Batavia, for example, and all of a sudden, 339 00:28:24.039 --> 00:28:31.640 the government, through these NGOs, a nonprofit organization, arranges to 340 00:28:31.799 --> 00:28:41.240 have a massive population just dumped into your town, using 341 00:28:41.319 --> 00:28:49.720 your services, all of a sudden. That's what happened in Springfield. Now, 342 00:28:50.480 --> 00:28:54.519 the whole emphasis has been on Donald Trump or JD. 343 00:28:54.640 --> 00:29:00.279 Vance talk about them, the Haitian immigrants eating people's house 344 00:29:00.319 --> 00:29:07.720 pets and dogs and cats and the like, which may 345 00:29:07.720 --> 00:29:10.839 not have happened. I don't know. They'd say, there's no 346 00:29:11.039 --> 00:29:15.759 evidence that this is this has occurred but I have 347 00:29:15.920 --> 00:29:19.279 seen and talked to people. I'm not personally seen, but 348 00:29:19.279 --> 00:29:26.359 I've talked to people who who have witnessed them illegal 349 00:29:26.559 --> 00:29:30.960 goose hunting and duck hunting in Springfield, Ohio. You know, 350 00:29:31.039 --> 00:29:32.440 if you're a if you're a hunter, you know that 351 00:29:32.519 --> 00:29:37.799 there are the geese are off the table completely, but 352 00:29:37.880 --> 00:29:40.440 there's a duck hunting season. The Haitians aren't paying attention 353 00:29:40.519 --> 00:29:45.839 to that. They're just going to and grabbing themselves some ducks. 354 00:29:47.400 --> 00:29:51.440 When when people who are not citizens of the country 355 00:29:52.160 --> 00:29:59.759 have more pull and sway and more rights than American citizens, 356 00:30:00.319 --> 00:30:04.799 we got to rethink the policy, don't we and not 357 00:30:04.920 --> 00:30:08.400 imprison somebody or try and accuse somebody of committing a 358 00:30:08.400 --> 00:30:14.680 crime for pointing it out. Other people behind this are 359 00:30:14.720 --> 00:30:20.880 obviously anti free speech. It's five forty five five one 360 00:30:20.960 --> 00:30:23.559 three seven nine fifty five hundred. If you'd like to 361 00:30:23.599 --> 00:30:25.440 get in touch, we'll take a break and come back 362 00:30:25.480 --> 00:30:28.599 on fifty five krc DE Talk station. Hey Bengals fans, 363 00:30:28.640 --> 00:30:35.519 when you line up sevenix o'clock, Poudy carry Jeff in 364 00:30:35.799 --> 00:30:39.079 for Brian Thomas and on the line our first caller 365 00:30:39.119 --> 00:30:45.160 of the morning, Bobby, you know, talking about immigration. Hello, Bobby, 366 00:30:45.200 --> 00:30:46.880 good morning, How are you and what are you doing 367 00:30:47.000 --> 00:30:50.880 up so early? We're up early every day, my brother. 368 00:30:50.960 --> 00:30:53.519 We got to maintain Almighty God's America. 369 00:30:53.640 --> 00:30:58.000 God bless you so uh so, anyway, your your thoughts 370 00:30:58.200 --> 00:31:02.720 on this immigrant you know, they all the argument is 371 00:31:02.720 --> 00:31:06.000 always we're a country of immigrants. We all came from 372 00:31:06.039 --> 00:31:11.200 somewhere else. But this is so different, This is so 373 00:31:11.440 --> 00:31:16.119 organically different than how America was formed. What's going on that? 374 00:31:16.279 --> 00:31:21.400 Because it's not the great melting pot. The melting pot 375 00:31:21.480 --> 00:31:24.920 is being thrown in with all these ingredients that don't 376 00:31:24.960 --> 00:31:27.559 work with the rest of the ingredients already there. Would 377 00:31:27.559 --> 00:31:29.480 you say that's a fair assessment. 378 00:31:30.839 --> 00:31:34.559 Well, with this migrant inplux that we're having, I'm just wondering, 379 00:31:34.599 --> 00:31:39.240 how do we recreate ladies and gentlemen from Sweden, Norway 380 00:31:39.319 --> 00:31:43.640 and Scandinavia. How can we mix it up a little bit? 381 00:31:43.720 --> 00:31:48.319 You know, I don't understand why it's just all one 382 00:31:48.400 --> 00:31:51.720 culture instead of you know, well, you know, an influx 383 00:31:51.759 --> 00:31:52.519 of different people. 384 00:31:52.599 --> 00:31:55.720 I'll tell you. I'll tell you why we don't get 385 00:31:55.799 --> 00:31:59.759 that influx of people from Scandinavia. Their government has already 386 00:31:59.759 --> 00:32:04.000 given them all kinds of freebies. Our government is dangling 387 00:32:04.480 --> 00:32:07.759 the freebies, i e. The billions of dollars that have 388 00:32:07.799 --> 00:32:10.799 already been spent on illegal immigrants to this country who 389 00:32:10.839 --> 00:32:16.119 came into this country illegally and as being flown into America. 390 00:32:17.359 --> 00:32:21.079 And they're not coming for freedom. They're not coming because 391 00:32:21.160 --> 00:32:24.440 they're so oppressed in the places that they're coming from. 392 00:32:24.680 --> 00:32:28.519 They're coming for the goodies that they can get out 393 00:32:28.559 --> 00:32:32.799 of American taxpayer's pockets. That's why they're coming here now, 394 00:32:33.079 --> 00:32:38.599 because they've been guaranteed a phone, a debit card, a 395 00:32:38.640 --> 00:32:41.759 free place to stay. In fact, we'll give you transportation 396 00:32:41.839 --> 00:32:44.920 anywhere you want into the country, just to get you 397 00:32:45.000 --> 00:32:48.119 off of our border and off of the radar. That's 398 00:32:48.160 --> 00:32:50.880 why they're coming now. They're coming because of the giant 399 00:32:51.279 --> 00:32:57.279 welcome that that the current administration has laid out, subverting 400 00:32:57.640 --> 00:33:00.640 all of our immigration laws. This is the other thing. 401 00:33:01.480 --> 00:33:07.200 Kamala Harris and other Democrats blamed Donald Trump for the 402 00:33:09.599 --> 00:33:12.480 for the failed immigration bill that was bipartisan and it 403 00:33:12.559 --> 00:33:17.440 was going to help solve the problem. The bipartisan immigration 404 00:33:17.599 --> 00:33:23.119 bill that they're talking about only made it easier for 405 00:33:23.240 --> 00:33:26.519 many illegal immigrants to come in at a certain level 406 00:33:27.039 --> 00:33:30.279 a well, only it's only two million a year, only 407 00:33:30.319 --> 00:33:34.880 two million a year or five million a year. You're 408 00:33:34.880 --> 00:33:38.000 going to slow this, slow the uh slow the spread 409 00:33:38.119 --> 00:33:41.680 so to speak and COVID parlance to only five million 410 00:33:41.720 --> 00:33:44.720 a year illegal immigrants being allowed. And then they wanted 411 00:33:44.759 --> 00:33:50.240 to make them citizens, subverting and circumventing all of the 412 00:33:50.279 --> 00:33:53.039 mechanisms that are already in place. When you come here 413 00:33:53.039 --> 00:33:55.119 from another country and you want to be a citizen 414 00:33:55.160 --> 00:34:05.440 of the USA, I mean, and then the issue is racism. 415 00:34:05.559 --> 00:34:11.519 You're racist because you don't want people who don't look 416 00:34:11.639 --> 00:34:14.480 like you into the country. And it's black and brown people. 417 00:34:14.480 --> 00:34:17.639 It's you, white people afraid of being replaced by black 418 00:34:17.679 --> 00:34:20.840 and brown people. There are people coming here by the 419 00:34:21.000 --> 00:34:27.559 thousands from communists China, and that government is pushing them 420 00:34:27.960 --> 00:34:32.880 to come here. They're directing them to come here because 421 00:34:32.880 --> 00:34:35.639 they want to infiltrate this country and turn it into 422 00:34:35.760 --> 00:34:39.800 a Marxist cesspool so they can be the dominant country 423 00:34:39.840 --> 00:34:42.079 on the face of the earth. The terrorists are coming 424 00:34:42.079 --> 00:34:48.199 in since in the last fifteen years, it's really really 425 00:34:48.280 --> 00:34:50.199 hyped up in the last three and a half years. 426 00:34:50.199 --> 00:34:54.239 Don't get me wrong, in the last fifteen years. Even 427 00:34:54.320 --> 00:34:58.400 Ice says over four hundred and fifty thousand people with 428 00:34:58.519 --> 00:35:02.760 serious criminal charges have been let into the country and 429 00:35:02.800 --> 00:35:08.480 nobody knows where they are because there's no vetting. There's 430 00:35:08.519 --> 00:35:12.599 not an orderly process, which is already It's already on 431 00:35:12.639 --> 00:35:15.920 our books. Congress doesn't need to act to pass a 432 00:35:15.960 --> 00:35:20.400 new law. There are already plenty of laws and statutes 433 00:35:21.320 --> 00:35:24.519 that say the president has power to stem the flow 434 00:35:25.840 --> 00:35:29.119 of all these illegals coming in. And this president isn't 435 00:35:29.199 --> 00:35:32.880 doing it. The one we had before was and he 436 00:35:32.960 --> 00:35:37.079 will again. We don't need new laws. The laws are 437 00:35:37.079 --> 00:35:46.320 already there. Follow the law. And now Donald Trump, God 438 00:35:46.320 --> 00:35:51.159 bless him. If he's elected, his first task on day 439 00:35:51.199 --> 00:35:56.000 one will be working with Ice to deport these illegal 440 00:35:56.039 --> 00:36:03.800 criminals from our country. I hope he gets the job 441 00:36:04.679 --> 00:36:08.920 because may Orcus and the rest of these numbskull incompetence 442 00:36:09.320 --> 00:36:14.960 need to be fired. We're not just firing Kamala Harris 443 00:36:16.000 --> 00:36:19.360 from the Vice presidency and keeping her out of the 444 00:36:19.360 --> 00:36:24.960 Oval office. We're also firing may Orcus, Buddhaje Edge Romundo. 445 00:36:25.599 --> 00:36:28.679 That chick is a nightmare the Secretary of Commerce. Have 446 00:36:28.719 --> 00:36:35.039 you listened to some of her comments. It's time that 447 00:36:35.079 --> 00:36:40.480 they all got fired. From this apprentice show, but his 448 00:36:40.679 --> 00:36:46.199 job one on day one will be to figure out 449 00:36:46.280 --> 00:36:50.320 what to do with all of the world's riff raft 450 00:36:50.360 --> 00:36:52.800 that have been allowed in Thanks to Joe Biden and 451 00:36:52.840 --> 00:36:56.079 Kamala Harris. Five point fifty six at fifty five krs, 452 00:36:56.320 --> 00:36:58.719 the talk station the. 453 00:36:58.760 --> 00:37:01.880 Latest on the election minutes away at the top of 454 00:37:01.920 --> 00:37:03.639 the OLM. You got a vote. The future of our 455 00:37:03.679 --> 00:37:09.440 country depends on it. Fifty five krs the talk station Discover. 456 00:37:09.159 --> 00:37:15.719 Rec October seventh, twenty twenty four. Happy birthday to Tico Torres. 457 00:37:16.000 --> 00:37:19.039 A song full of the brooking hot. 458 00:37:19.199 --> 00:37:23.159 A bon Jovi, who is seventy one today. I couldn't 459 00:37:23.199 --> 00:37:31.360 set one year since the worst terrorist attack in Israel, 460 00:37:31.440 --> 00:37:37.159 perhaps ever by proportion by percentage. Nearly twelve hundred killed 461 00:37:37.960 --> 00:37:43.519 in the attack by the Mos terrorist network, which is 462 00:37:44.000 --> 00:37:47.159 right next door in the Gaza Strip. There's a lot 463 00:37:47.239 --> 00:37:51.320 less of them now, thank God, and thank the IDF. 464 00:37:53.039 --> 00:37:56.679 It's hard to believe that it's been a year already, 465 00:37:58.000 --> 00:38:04.320 and it's just been a week since devastation came via 466 00:38:04.400 --> 00:38:10.840 Mother Nature and Hurricane Helene to places like Asheville, North Carolina. 467 00:38:11.360 --> 00:38:16.360 They're calling it there, Katrina. Donald Trump is calling it 468 00:38:16.480 --> 00:38:20.880 Kamala Harris's Katrina moment because she is the one in office. 469 00:38:22.119 --> 00:38:28.119 It's a report from the scene that's been updated this morning. 470 00:38:28.119 --> 00:38:34.559 This is from the Epoch Times. Tunnel Road a major 471 00:38:34.639 --> 00:38:38.800 thoroughfare between Ashville and the Swanna Noah Valley in western 472 00:38:38.800 --> 00:38:41.880 North Carolina. Before Hurricane Helen, hundreds of cars would cross 473 00:38:41.920 --> 00:38:46.360 that bridge and route to downtown Ashville. Cottages in the 474 00:38:46.360 --> 00:38:49.119 Blue Ridge Mountains are Interstate forty headed east to west. 475 00:38:49.760 --> 00:38:53.239 That bridge is now blocked by an entire house on 476 00:38:53.320 --> 00:38:59.840 top of it, deposited by the flooding. A US Army 477 00:38:59.840 --> 00:39:03.559 for Position Alan Queen, who's an Assistant Incident commander of 478 00:39:03.599 --> 00:39:07.639 military personnel deployed for disaster relief, said, you see a 479 00:39:07.679 --> 00:39:10.719 house on top of a bridge, that peak picture speaks 480 00:39:10.719 --> 00:39:16.119 a thousand words. That's his hometown too. He wasn't just 481 00:39:16.239 --> 00:39:19.280 flown in there for the disaster. He lives there in Ashville. 482 00:39:20.119 --> 00:39:22.360 He said that the floods caused by Hurricane Helen were 483 00:39:22.360 --> 00:39:28.000 the worst in more than one hundred years. Even the 484 00:39:28.000 --> 00:39:31.559 Great Flood of nineteen sixteen, which killed eighty not as 485 00:39:31.639 --> 00:39:37.360 bad as what they've experienced in the aftermath of Helene. 486 00:39:38.280 --> 00:39:41.920 Storefronts blasted open like there was an explode, like a 487 00:39:41.960 --> 00:39:46.400 bomb went off. Cars overturned in ditches of muddy water, 488 00:39:46.559 --> 00:39:55.599 Tractor trailers mangled across roads and highways. This storm dumped 489 00:39:56.000 --> 00:40:03.239 forty trillion gallons of water on these states between September 490 00:40:03.280 --> 00:40:08.840 twenty fourth and twenty ninth, with the wind again inland, 491 00:40:09.199 --> 00:40:15.719 reaching one hundred and forty miles an hour. The death 492 00:40:15.760 --> 00:40:19.079 count is more than two hundred. There are still hundreds 493 00:40:19.079 --> 00:40:24.079 of people missing. And again my issue this morning with you, 494 00:40:24.199 --> 00:40:29.719 and I know Bryan's listeners, I know Kes listeners. You're 495 00:40:31.000 --> 00:40:34.480 people with a conscience, You're people who care about your 496 00:40:34.519 --> 00:40:37.440 fellow citizens. And I'm sure you've already done this, but 497 00:40:37.480 --> 00:40:41.719 if you haven't yet, I encourage you to give whatever 498 00:40:41.760 --> 00:40:46.599 you can towards these relief efforts, because we found out 499 00:40:48.000 --> 00:40:51.519 in the last week that the federal government is not 500 00:40:51.679 --> 00:40:56.679 the answer. It's never the answer. They tell us that 501 00:40:56.719 --> 00:41:02.360 they're there working for us in Washington, or in Columbus, 502 00:41:02.639 --> 00:41:07.159 or in Frankfurt, but more and more the evidence is 503 00:41:07.199 --> 00:41:11.639 clear they're working for somebody else. It ain't you and me, 504 00:41:13.960 --> 00:41:20.280 mostly themselves, is who they're working for, and they're working 505 00:41:20.320 --> 00:41:24.679 for agendas that don't have the best interest of the 506 00:41:24.719 --> 00:41:30.199 average American citizen in mind. Give to the American Red Claw, 507 00:41:30.239 --> 00:41:37.599 a Cross, Samaritans Purse, Franklin Graham's incredible charity, and Matthew 508 00:41:37.599 --> 00:41:44.880 twenty five ministries here in town. Forty trillion gallons of water. 509 00:41:48.039 --> 00:41:59.079 The floodwater's gone most places, but the suffering continues. The 510 00:41:59.159 --> 00:42:03.440 greatest iron of Helene is that forty trillions gallons of 511 00:42:03.519 --> 00:42:11.239 water dumped into these states. There's no water. There's no 512 00:42:11.320 --> 00:42:16.480 water to drink, there's no water to wash. The water 513 00:42:16.519 --> 00:42:22.039 shortage is maybe the most critical part of the aftermath 514 00:42:22.079 --> 00:42:29.760 of this. Water mains, underground pipes swept away. I mean 515 00:42:29.880 --> 00:42:37.400 the ground itself moved like it was an earthquake. Not 516 00:42:37.559 --> 00:42:40.639 one single building in Asheville, North Carolina, which is no 517 00:42:40.880 --> 00:42:48.760 small town, can access running water. And people are alive 518 00:42:48.960 --> 00:42:54.039 right now in Ashville and other places because of the 519 00:42:54.159 --> 00:42:56.880 thousands of gallons of water being shipped in every day. 520 00:42:56.880 --> 00:43:00.119 And that's where Samaritans Purse, in the Red Cross, all 521 00:43:00.119 --> 00:43:05.360 these other relief efforts come in. You can't flush your toilet, 522 00:43:06.039 --> 00:43:10.239 can't take a shower, can't do laundry, no water to drink. 523 00:43:10.679 --> 00:43:15.119 The infrastructure for that water has been totally destroyed. According 524 00:43:15.159 --> 00:43:22.320 to a primary care physician, I mean Asheville is known 525 00:43:22.360 --> 00:43:28.840 as a very kind of leftist, progressive place, but that 526 00:43:28.880 --> 00:43:32.519 doesn't matter at a time like this. These are American citizens, 527 00:43:35.039 --> 00:43:40.960 and with the election just thirty days away, North Carolina 528 00:43:41.000 --> 00:43:46.079 is a crucial state, for example, in the presidential election 529 00:43:46.960 --> 00:43:53.159 and in Senate races. In places like Asheville, the larger 530 00:43:53.199 --> 00:43:58.480 cities which tend to vote Democrat, they're probably going to 531 00:43:58.480 --> 00:44:01.840 be able to vote in these rural outback towns and 532 00:44:01.880 --> 00:44:06.800 mountain towns and valleys, Big Trump Country. Will these people, 533 00:44:07.079 --> 00:44:11.360 I mean, they don't have water to drink. How are 534 00:44:11.360 --> 00:44:22.079 they going to vote? Ryan Austin, a Nashville Ashville local 535 00:44:22.119 --> 00:44:24.400 and disaster relief work says there's no running water in 536 00:44:24.440 --> 00:44:28.079 all of Ashville. Plenty of people bringing in bottled water 537 00:44:28.079 --> 00:44:30.800 for drinking. There's no way to use that for anything else, 538 00:44:32.920 --> 00:44:40.159 And especially at hospitals. Can you imagine being a nurse 539 00:44:40.280 --> 00:44:44.320 or a doctor, or a patient more importantly, in a 540 00:44:44.400 --> 00:44:49.079 hospital and there's no water and the shelters where many 541 00:44:49.079 --> 00:44:53.840 of the injured and homeless are taking refuge. A Level 542 00:44:53.880 --> 00:44:58.280 two trauma center Nashville called Mission Hospital twelve hundred beds 543 00:44:59.079 --> 00:45:05.519 reportedly digging wells to find water for essential services. Feces 544 00:45:05.559 --> 00:45:08.039 piled up in the toilets. People had buckets next to 545 00:45:08.079 --> 00:45:11.800 their rooms. They were flushing their toilets that way. Doctors 546 00:45:11.800 --> 00:45:15.239 could not do important necessary procedures because there was no 547 00:45:15.280 --> 00:45:26.760 way to clean their utensils. Yep, everybody says water, water everywhere, 548 00:45:26.800 --> 00:45:29.920 and not a drop to drink in Ashville or so 549 00:45:30.000 --> 00:45:34.159 many other places. Again, Kamala Harris was there over the weekend. 550 00:45:35.840 --> 00:45:40.599 You know, too little, too late. Donald Trump has called 551 00:45:40.639 --> 00:45:46.639 this Kamali's Katrina since she's in office. Donald Trump, on 552 00:45:46.679 --> 00:45:50.320 the other hand, has as you know, enlisted Elon Musk, 553 00:45:50.360 --> 00:45:54.800 his good friend, to bring communications to these areas with 554 00:45:54.880 --> 00:46:02.360 his Starlink and initially the Starlinks stations. We're being denied 555 00:46:02.400 --> 00:46:06.719 access to be installed where there's no cell phone service, 556 00:46:06.760 --> 00:46:11.199 there's no power, there's no water, there's no way to 557 00:46:11.639 --> 00:46:18.079 find out if somebody's alive or not. Really, really a 558 00:46:18.159 --> 00:46:24.159 dire situation. So American Red Cross Samaritan's Purse, Matthew twenty five, 559 00:46:24.920 --> 00:46:27.679 get off my horse here and take a break, Gary 560 00:46:27.719 --> 00:46:30.760 Jeff and for Brian Thomas this morning. It's coming up 561 00:46:30.760 --> 00:46:38.039 on six fifteen at fifty five KRC the talk station. Yes, 562 00:46:41.039 --> 00:46:43.880 about eighteen minutes after six o'clock on a Monday morning, 563 00:46:43.880 --> 00:46:47.880 Gary Jampin for Brian on fifty five KRC the Talk station, 564 00:46:48.280 --> 00:46:53.159 Good morning, Great to be with you five one, three, seven, 565 00:46:53.239 --> 00:46:57.079 four nine fifty five hundred to get in touch. We're 566 00:46:57.119 --> 00:47:00.679 talking about Hurricane Helene relief, which I think is the 567 00:47:00.719 --> 00:47:03.440 most important issue. Even though we're only thirty days from 568 00:47:03.480 --> 00:47:09.480 the election, early voting starts in Ohio tomorrow, and for 569 00:47:09.559 --> 00:47:18.000 the first time I think ever, Republicans, Conservatives, people you 570 00:47:18.079 --> 00:47:20.679 might be voting for, are imploring you to get out 571 00:47:20.719 --> 00:47:26.119 and vote early if you can. I'm going to save 572 00:47:26.679 --> 00:47:31.559 my vote for election day because I don't want the 573 00:47:31.639 --> 00:47:33.960 other side to know how many votes they need to 574 00:47:34.000 --> 00:47:41.559 steal to win another presidential election. That's why. Figure if 575 00:47:41.559 --> 00:47:45.199 they see all these votes for Donald Trump or whatever 576 00:47:45.280 --> 00:47:49.320 conservative candidate you may be voting for in your situation, 577 00:47:49.440 --> 00:47:53.280 in your state or your community, if they know how 578 00:47:53.320 --> 00:47:56.840 many they've got to steal, well, I don't want to 579 00:47:56.840 --> 00:48:02.400 give them any help. But early votings start tomorrow, and 580 00:48:02.480 --> 00:48:05.360 I'm sure that'll be part of what is on Chris 581 00:48:05.400 --> 00:48:10.480 Smitherman's mind. It certainly will be on Judge Russell Mock's mind, 582 00:48:11.480 --> 00:48:16.480 who was head of a Republican party and is of course 583 00:48:17.199 --> 00:48:26.000 talking about Melissa Powers for the prosecutor here in Hamilton County. 584 00:48:26.880 --> 00:48:28.960 But anyway, we'll be talking with him in just a 585 00:48:29.000 --> 00:48:35.880 few moments. The other issue in my mind that is 586 00:48:35.920 --> 00:48:40.840 predominant a year later is what is going on in 587 00:48:40.880 --> 00:48:45.400 the Middle East. Why should we care? Well, we should 588 00:48:45.400 --> 00:48:53.159 care because Israel is the United States basically in that 589 00:48:53.400 --> 00:48:56.519 it's the only thing like the United States as far 590 00:48:56.599 --> 00:49:02.440 as a government and democrat see in freedom for the 591 00:49:02.480 --> 00:49:07.719 average individual. You don't have to be a Jew to 592 00:49:07.760 --> 00:49:10.679 live in Israel. There are many people who are not 593 00:49:10.760 --> 00:49:15.559 Jewish who live in Israel. But the whole focus of 594 00:49:15.599 --> 00:49:22.559 Hamas Hesbala and Iran is getting rid of the Jews. 595 00:49:24.039 --> 00:49:29.159 This is nothing new. It's been going on for thousands 596 00:49:29.199 --> 00:49:37.280 of years, reared at sugly head when Hitler was in power, 597 00:49:40.360 --> 00:49:45.679 and the pro Hamas protesters in this country are nothing 598 00:49:45.760 --> 00:49:49.920 more than a throwback to Adolf Hitler because all about 599 00:49:49.920 --> 00:49:53.039 hatred of Jews. And here we are a year later. 600 00:49:54.159 --> 00:49:58.880 The IDF will not be and should not be handcuffed 601 00:49:59.559 --> 00:50:02.800 by our administration or anyone else. It is their business 602 00:50:03.440 --> 00:50:07.440 and we need to help them. Ukraine, I'm not so 603 00:50:07.519 --> 00:50:12.840 sure of. We have Gary, we have Gary on the line. Gary, 604 00:50:12.880 --> 00:50:15.480 good morning, how are you and what's on your mind? 605 00:50:16.119 --> 00:50:19.079 Good morning Gary, Jeff. I heard you talking about these 606 00:50:20.119 --> 00:50:24.440 these great fundraisers and Donald Trump has a go fund 607 00:50:24.519 --> 00:50:28.599 me that right now has raised six million, eight hundred 608 00:50:28.599 --> 00:50:34.400 and thirteen dollars and six million, eight hundred and thirteen thousand, 609 00:50:34.440 --> 00:50:36.000 seven and twenty three dollars right. 610 00:50:35.840 --> 00:50:40.119 Now, and for the relief for the for the relief effort. 611 00:50:41.519 --> 00:50:45.119 Yes, sir, you go to go fund me Trump author 612 00:50:45.159 --> 00:50:50.400 I support kan Leen victims. It's six million, eight hundred 613 00:50:50.400 --> 00:50:53.679 and thirteen, seven and twenty three dollars. 614 00:50:53.960 --> 00:50:57.800 God bless him, God bless anybody who has donated to that. Gary, 615 00:50:58.840 --> 00:51:01.599 I mean to me, to me, this is the only 616 00:51:01.679 --> 00:51:05.159 issue that matters. I know people are all fired up 617 00:51:05.199 --> 00:51:08.199 about the election and how important and consequential it is. 618 00:51:08.920 --> 00:51:11.599 Uh And and Trump even said it himself over the weekend. 619 00:51:12.079 --> 00:51:16.679 I'm not here for votes. I'm here for to save lives. 620 00:51:17.000 --> 00:51:19.519 And and that's who he is at his core, that's 621 00:51:19.519 --> 00:51:22.519 who he is, I believe. Yeah, I. 622 00:51:24.119 --> 00:51:26.639 Didn't hear a lot about the go fund me and 623 00:51:27.639 --> 00:51:31.000 until the other day popped up on a radio show 624 00:51:31.320 --> 00:51:36.800 and I donated, And it's pretty quick and simple. Everybody 625 00:51:36.840 --> 00:51:37.519 wants to do that. 626 00:51:39.559 --> 00:51:42.320 What is what is the what is the title of 627 00:51:42.400 --> 00:51:45.679 the GoFundMe page? Is it just Hurricane Helene or what? 628 00:51:45.679 --> 00:51:45.880 What? 629 00:51:45.880 --> 00:51:48.960 What is? How do people find Well? 630 00:51:49.000 --> 00:51:50.840 In one second, I just was looking at it. 631 00:51:51.440 --> 00:51:57.039 I'm on my way to work right now. But it's 632 00:51:57.079 --> 00:52:03.960 a go fund me Hurricane Helen's victims. Trump authorized no 633 00:52:04.159 --> 00:52:05.000 fund me account. 634 00:52:05.719 --> 00:52:09.800 Fantastic. That's that's another way that people can chip in. 635 00:52:10.440 --> 00:52:12.559 And I appreciate you sharing that, Gary. 636 00:52:13.280 --> 00:52:15.480 No problem. Listen to you next Saturday morning. 637 00:52:15.760 --> 00:52:20.119 All right, I have a great day at work. Just 638 00:52:20.199 --> 00:52:23.559 on your way to work.

And again on this October seventh, 643 00:52:35.679 --> 00:52:38.880 we are standing by the people. I am standing by 644 00:52:38.960 --> 00:52:45.239 the people of Israel and the IDF and standing firmly 645 00:52:45.280 --> 00:52:52.320 against Iran and all of its proxies, the terrorist, the murdering, terrorist, 646 00:52:52.920 --> 00:52:58.480 horde of Islamists who want to wipe Israel off the map. 647 00:52:59.320 --> 00:53:04.880 Two things and local politics coming up next with Judge 648 00:53:04.960 --> 00:53:08.400 Russell Mock In just a moment.

If grandma's not around. 699 00:56:17.280 --> 00:56:20.039 I got to tell you from from mile my short 700 00:56:20.079 --> 00:56:23.039 time of being counting chairman and watching the folks on 701 00:56:23.079 --> 00:56:25.159 the Board of Elections on both sides, that can tell 702 00:56:25.199 --> 00:56:28.440 you they are there on top of this, they are 703 00:56:28.440 --> 00:56:30.199 completely going through those voter roles. 704 00:56:30.519 --> 00:56:31.679 And I will tell you I had one of. 705 00:56:31.679 --> 00:56:35.320 My good friends parents passed away over the summertime and 706 00:56:35.360 --> 00:56:37.880 they told me that they've already received a letter that they. 707 00:56:37.880 --> 00:56:39.360 Were taken off the voter role. 708 00:56:39.480 --> 00:56:42.159 So well, I think the BOE is doing a good job. 709 00:56:42.280 --> 00:56:45.400 I think the changes that they made up in Columbus 710 00:56:45.400 --> 00:56:47.440 in the last couple of years, I think we're going 711 00:56:47.480 --> 00:56:49.360 to have a secure and safe election, and I think 712 00:56:49.679 --> 00:56:51.320 we're going to win from the top all the way 713 00:56:51.360 --> 00:56:51.960 down to the bottom. 714 00:56:52.239 --> 00:56:55.599 Well from from you know what we saw in twenty 715 00:56:55.679 --> 00:56:59.440 twenty with all of the chaos that the COVID pandemic 716 00:56:59.800 --> 00:57:03.320 led into, and the mail in ballots and the absentee 717 00:57:03.320 --> 00:57:07.320 ballots and ballot boxes. I'm not a big fan of 718 00:57:07.360 --> 00:57:14.960 ballot boxes myself, but your thoughts on ballot drop off boxes, Russell, well. 719 00:57:14.760 --> 00:57:17.119 You know, it's against one of those things it's necessary 720 00:57:17.159 --> 00:57:19.880 to have. I know that there's a pending loss that's 721 00:57:19.880 --> 00:57:24.800 going on the folks filed claiming the Americans of disabilities violation. 722 00:57:24.960 --> 00:57:28.400 I think having one box the way that they do 723 00:57:28.599 --> 00:57:33.280 under twenty four hour surveillance, I think that's a reasonable accommodation. 724 00:57:34.000 --> 00:57:37.000 And I think again the safeguards is the legislatures taken 725 00:57:37.079 --> 00:57:40.480 and the Board of Elections. I think it's okay to 726 00:57:40.559 --> 00:57:43.639 vote that way. I think people dropping off ballots for 727 00:57:43.960 --> 00:57:48.199 an infirm friend or family's fine. Obviously, ballot harvesting and 728 00:57:48.239 --> 00:57:50.079 bundling what they do is not. 729 00:57:50.320 --> 00:57:52.920 And I think the way that they have the voter 730 00:57:53.559 --> 00:57:56.719 box set up, I think they'll they'll catch those issues. 731 00:57:56.760 --> 00:57:58.760 So I feel confident this year. 732 00:57:59.000 --> 00:58:01.559 I feel you know, as you know, twenty twenty was 733 00:58:01.599 --> 00:58:03.480 a crazy year all the way around, and there was 734 00:58:03.480 --> 00:58:06.280 a lot that went on, and I think it's going 735 00:58:06.360 --> 00:58:08.320 to be a lot better here in twenty twenty four. 736 00:58:08.440 --> 00:58:13.880 So let's talk about these local races. Judge Melissa Powers 737 00:58:14.280 --> 00:58:18.760 for Hamilton County Prosecutor, I know she has a stellar 738 00:58:18.800 --> 00:58:22.360 record as a judge. What are what are County Pillages 739 00:58:22.480 --> 00:58:28.199 qualifications to be prosecutor of Hamilton County? Can you filled 740 00:58:28.199 --> 00:58:29.519 me in on the opposition? 741 00:58:31.239 --> 00:58:31.920 Absolutely? 742 00:58:32.000 --> 00:58:33.679 Well, I guess I'll kind of start out with a 743 00:58:33.719 --> 00:58:35.440 little bit of a metaphor. You know, are you going 744 00:58:35.519 --> 00:58:37.719 to let your friends or family get on a commercial 745 00:58:38.159 --> 00:58:41.119 airline go on a flight when you have a pilot 746 00:58:41.159 --> 00:58:45.119 who's never landed a plane. You know, County Village is 747 00:58:45.360 --> 00:58:48.719 dangerously unqualified the whole the position of prostenic attorney, which 748 00:58:48.760 --> 00:58:52.119 is the most important elected county office for a number 749 00:58:52.159 --> 00:58:54.280 of reasons which I don't need to get in with 750 00:58:54.320 --> 00:58:57.960 you today, but you know, County Pillage has never prosecuted 751 00:58:58.000 --> 00:59:00.000 a single case in her life. And I think about it, 752 00:59:00.360 --> 00:59:03.400 So we're going to hire somebody to somebody to run 753 00:59:03.639 --> 00:59:07.079 the most important office, tried to keep our community safe. 754 00:59:07.400 --> 00:59:11.079 And she's never handled a single criminal prosecution in her life. 755 00:59:11.519 --> 00:59:13.840 You know, she hasn't been in a courtroom in over 756 00:59:13.920 --> 00:59:16.719 twenty years. You know, a lot has changed at the 757 00:59:16.760 --> 00:59:20.360 crack cocaine days back in the early two thousands when 758 00:59:20.400 --> 00:59:23.480 she was you know, was a practicing attorney for a 759 00:59:23.559 --> 00:59:25.559 short period of time. And I think the most telling 760 00:59:25.760 --> 00:59:29.159 about whether she's unqualified is she actually had she had 761 00:59:29.239 --> 00:59:33.320 let her law license lapse, and last year she had 762 00:59:33.360 --> 00:59:37.039 to actually re up her law license. You know, I'm 763 00:59:37.079 --> 00:59:39.280 a lawyer, and so I know how you know, you've 764 00:59:40.599 --> 00:59:42.480 I put a lot of work into getting that license, 765 00:59:42.559 --> 00:59:44.400 and it takes a lot of work to keep that license. 766 00:59:44.440 --> 00:59:47.519 She actually let that law license lapse and she had 767 00:59:47.559 --> 00:59:49.639 to re up her law license as she would even 768 00:59:49.679 --> 00:59:53.039 be eligible to run this year. So, you know, and 769 00:59:53.159 --> 00:59:58.400 Melissa Powers had been a practicing attorney, she's been a prosecutor. 770 00:59:58.719 --> 01:00:00.920 She was a judge for some teen years in two 771 01:00:00.920 --> 01:00:05.039 different courts. She's heard thousands and thousands of cases, and 772 01:00:05.079 --> 01:00:09.719 there's no one better for this position and Melitsa Powers. 773 01:00:08.760 --> 01:00:11.880 What are what are you being told about how this 774 01:00:12.039 --> 01:00:15.679 is going? I mean I have seen, I guess I've 775 01:00:15.679 --> 01:00:20.119 seen ads for both candidates on television. I'm a Kentucky voter, 776 01:00:20.280 --> 01:00:24.480 so obviously the BOE they're doing such a good job. 777 01:00:24.519 --> 01:00:26.599 I could never vote in your election. I don't want to. 778 01:00:27.199 --> 01:00:33.320 But so tell me what's the read you're getting Because 779 01:00:33.360 --> 01:00:35.360 you said you were positive at the start of this, 780 01:00:35.480 --> 01:00:39.400 and it's been Hamilton County has been like the city 781 01:00:39.440 --> 01:00:42.400 of Cincinnati. I mean, at least Hamilton County is still 782 01:00:42.480 --> 01:00:45.280 kind of purple according to the last few elections, but 783 01:00:45.639 --> 01:00:48.639 Cincinnati has just died in the wool blue right now 784 01:00:49.480 --> 01:00:53.760 according to the most recent election results, and it's just 785 01:00:53.760 --> 01:00:57.559 been going that way more and more. So what is 786 01:00:57.599 --> 01:00:58.960 the source of your optimism? 787 01:01:00.519 --> 01:01:02.960 Source of often is people see what's going on in 788 01:01:03.000 --> 01:01:07.440 the community, the lack of public safety. You know, they're 789 01:01:07.480 --> 01:01:10.960 reading in the paper and on social media about soft 790 01:01:11.039 --> 01:01:14.800 on crime, liberal judges that you know are not holding 791 01:01:14.840 --> 01:01:18.559 people with appropriate bailments, for not sending people to prison. 792 01:01:19.079 --> 01:01:20.760 And you know, Melissa Powers is the one. 793 01:01:20.679 --> 01:01:23.320 That's been fighting back against that. So you know, I 794 01:01:23.320 --> 01:01:25.400 talked a little bit about Melissa's record. Let's talk about 795 01:01:25.440 --> 01:01:27.679 the record that we know about connic pillage. You know, 796 01:01:27.760 --> 01:01:29.400 the only thing you can really go look at is 797 01:01:29.400 --> 01:01:32.199 when she was in the state she represented to the 798 01:01:32.239 --> 01:01:34.280 state rep and if you go up and if you 799 01:01:34.400 --> 01:01:37.480 dig into some of her voting, you know she she 800 01:01:37.840 --> 01:01:42.119 sided with the liberal politicians and judges every time she's 801 01:01:42.199 --> 01:01:46.360 up there. You know, she voted repeatedly against funding programs 802 01:01:46.400 --> 01:01:50.239 that woul would support victims of crime. She sponsored a 803 01:01:50.239 --> 01:01:52.519 bill to make it harder for the police to investigate 804 01:01:52.599 --> 01:01:55.480 juveniles who commit violent crimes. And as we know locally, 805 01:01:56.000 --> 01:01:58.440 you know what's going on in juvenile court and the 806 01:01:58.480 --> 01:02:01.440 amount of violence going on there, she made that easier 807 01:02:01.760 --> 01:02:06.199 and more difficult for law enforcement to proscate this cas is. 808 01:02:06.679 --> 01:02:10.119 She actually also is a state representative, voted against legislation 809 01:02:10.239 --> 01:02:13.280 that would have increased penalties for sex traffickers. And I 810 01:02:13.280 --> 01:02:15.960 could go on and on, but she's had a liberal 811 01:02:15.960 --> 01:02:18.119 agenda which has made our community less safe. 812 01:02:18.440 --> 01:02:21.760 And Melissa's campaign is pointing that out. 813 01:02:21.880 --> 01:02:23.800 You know, she's going to be on television, she's going 814 01:02:23.880 --> 01:02:24.599 to be on radio. 815 01:02:24.760 --> 01:02:26.159 She has incredible endorsements. 816 01:02:26.199 --> 01:02:29.440 People that have worked with her for many many years, 817 01:02:29.440 --> 01:02:32.360 and they know she's the right person to keep us 818 01:02:32.360 --> 01:02:34.239 safe and Connie Pillage is dangerous. 819 01:02:34.719 --> 01:02:39.039 Well, let's talk since you were the Hamilton County Republican chairman, 820 01:02:39.519 --> 01:02:44.400 let's talk about the District one race for the House 821 01:02:44.440 --> 01:02:48.000 of Representatives, mister Orlandos Tanza. 822 01:02:48.320 --> 01:02:50.760 Well, hopefully if any if you or any of your 823 01:02:50.840 --> 01:02:54.679 listeners watched the last two debates with Orlando, you know 824 01:02:54.719 --> 01:02:58.239 it was absolutely clear who is the better person to 825 01:02:58.360 --> 01:03:00.679 lead us in H one and. 826 01:03:00.639 --> 01:03:04.159 That's Orlando Santa. You know, I don't know if you 827 01:03:04.199 --> 01:03:06.599 had the opportunity to meet Orlando, but everybody that does. 828 01:03:06.679 --> 01:03:08.320 And he absolutely likes up a room. 829 01:03:08.760 --> 01:03:11.559 You know, top ten in his class at West Point 830 01:03:11.960 --> 01:03:15.559 military officer went on to get his CPA. 831 01:03:15.960 --> 01:03:16.960 He's an attorney. 832 01:03:17.280 --> 01:03:20.599 Uh, he was an assistant prosecuty attorney. He now runs 833 01:03:20.599 --> 01:03:23.000 the victims to sit there. I mean he he is 834 01:03:23.039 --> 01:03:24.679 a guy who is going to need. 835 01:03:26.320 --> 01:03:27.079 Our country. 836 01:03:27.400 --> 01:03:27.679 Uh. 837 01:03:27.719 --> 01:03:31.360 You know, he's dedicated his life of service to military 838 01:03:31.440 --> 01:03:35.840 post family and if you watch that, you watch that debate, 839 01:03:35.960 --> 01:03:38.920 you will know that he's ready to lead us. 840 01:03:40.000 --> 01:03:44.039 Well. Fantastic, Uh, and just your thoughts, Russell Locke, if 841 01:03:44.079 --> 01:03:48.239 any on our federal presidential election, and how do we 842 01:03:48.280 --> 01:03:52.079 turn things around in Cincinnati and Hamilton County? And do 843 01:03:52.159 --> 01:03:54.719 you do you think that is that is beginning to happen. 844 01:03:54.760 --> 01:03:57.199 I know that there have been chinks in the Democrats 845 01:03:57.320 --> 01:04:00.480 armor many places that have been pointed out out in 846 01:04:00.519 --> 01:04:04.519 this presidential election. I mean, there's even talk that Donald 847 01:04:04.559 --> 01:04:07.800 Trump may win New York. I think that's probably not 848 01:04:07.880 --> 01:04:11.320 going to happen, but there's still it's for the first 849 01:04:11.320 --> 01:04:14.559 time in a long time, it's a possibility, at least 850 01:04:14.639 --> 01:04:18.360 in some people's minds. What about Cincinnati and Hamilton County 851 01:04:18.360 --> 01:04:19.519 and the presidential election? 852 01:04:20.119 --> 01:04:23.840 Russell Well, I know what the You know again, look 853 01:04:23.840 --> 01:04:27.679 at the demographics of Hamilton County and you know it's 854 01:04:27.679 --> 01:04:28.679 been it's been challenging. 855 01:04:28.719 --> 01:04:31.920 But I truly believe that when people are. 856 01:04:31.800 --> 01:04:34.039 In that polling place, which hopefully they go and vote 857 01:04:34.079 --> 01:04:37.400 early this year, are doing their mail and ballot, I mean, 858 01:04:37.400 --> 01:04:37.760 they have. 859 01:04:37.760 --> 01:04:40.079 To ask themselves whose policies are going to be better 860 01:04:40.079 --> 01:04:40.719 for the country. 861 01:04:41.239 --> 01:04:43.880 You know, we absolutely just cannot take four more years 862 01:04:43.920 --> 01:04:46.840 of this, Harris Biden. You know, we're thirty four trillion 863 01:04:46.880 --> 01:04:50.079 dollars in debt, we have open borders, we have twenty 864 01:04:50.119 --> 01:04:52.760 five million illegal immigrants that have come in that is 865 01:04:52.760 --> 01:04:56.760 affecting the economy, public safety, and I think people are 866 01:04:56.800 --> 01:04:58.960 going to just look and say, we can't. 867 01:04:58.760 --> 01:04:59.639 Do this anymore. 868 01:04:59.639 --> 01:05:01.960 We can having a few more, you know, four more 869 01:05:02.039 --> 01:05:04.480 years of this and I think you know, people know 870 01:05:04.519 --> 01:05:07.679 that President Trump, with Shade Vans to the side, are 871 01:05:07.679 --> 01:05:10.079 going to return us to prosperity. And I think they're 872 01:05:10.079 --> 01:05:13.360 going to really be ready to support President Trump. And again, 873 01:05:13.440 --> 01:05:17.599 if you watch the debate with Senator Vance last week, 874 01:05:17.639 --> 01:05:19.920 I mean it was clear. I mean Senator Advance is 875 01:05:20.000 --> 01:05:22.360 ready to lead, He is ready to support the president 876 01:05:23.000 --> 01:05:27.719 and you know not still a line from the Democrats, 877 01:05:27.719 --> 01:05:29.719 but it is time. You know, they were talking about 878 01:05:29.760 --> 01:05:33.000 turning the page. Well we need to turn the page 879 01:05:33.000 --> 01:05:36.360 on them and put President Trump and Advance back into 880 01:05:36.400 --> 01:05:37.000 the White House. 881 01:05:37.920 --> 01:05:41.719 Any final thoughts, Judge Mark on Uh before we before 882 01:05:41.719 --> 01:05:44.440 we have to part ways here. I know, like you said, 883 01:05:44.840 --> 01:05:46.840 today is the last day to get registered.

Again, 893 01:06:12.559 --> 01:06:16.280 we have outside special winterest groups coming into Ohio spending 894 01:06:16.400 --> 01:06:19.719 millions of dollars trying to monkey with our constitution again. 895 01:06:20.199 --> 01:06:22.000 You know, the voters of Ohio and. 896 01:06:22.079 --> 01:06:24.960 Twenty fifteen and I think twenty eighteen voted. 897 01:06:24.639 --> 01:06:31.880 Overwhelmingly by seventy percent protect us against anti jerimandering provisions. 898 01:06:31.920 --> 01:06:33.360 And you know, here we go again. 899 01:06:33.559 --> 01:06:36.199 You know, the Democrats can't win at the ballot box, 900 01:06:36.280 --> 01:06:38.440 and so now they're trying to change the rules statewide 901 01:06:38.440 --> 01:06:38.960 to give them. 902 01:06:38.880 --> 01:06:41.000 An advantage they want to be able to take. 903 01:06:41.199 --> 01:06:44.559 You know, have retired judges pick a group of unelected 904 01:06:45.239 --> 01:06:49.480 bureaucrats to draw these lines. You know, and even now, 905 01:06:50.039 --> 01:06:53.159 you know, the Secretary of State labeled it actually Issue 906 01:06:53.199 --> 01:06:57.320 one would put jerrymandering into our constitution, not take it out, 907 01:06:57.760 --> 01:07:00.280 not protect us, or put it in. And just last 908 01:07:00.280 --> 01:07:02.719 week the highest Supreme Court ruled that they agreed with 909 01:07:02.760 --> 01:07:05.400 that on the ballot language. And so this is bad 910 01:07:05.440 --> 01:07:09.519 for Ohio. This is just an absolute power power grab, 911 01:07:09.840 --> 01:07:12.599 you know, fueled by foreign especially winterest groups you know 912 01:07:12.679 --> 01:07:14.599 that just want to rig our elections, and so we 913 01:07:14.679 --> 01:07:16.239 have to make sure that everybody votes. 914 01:07:16.320 --> 01:07:17.199 Know on issue one. 915 01:07:17.559 --> 01:07:19.679 Judge Russell Mock, thank you so much for your time 916 01:07:19.719 --> 01:07:22.039 this morning. Joe's mad at me because I've blown past 917 01:07:22.039 --> 01:07:26.320 the break, so I guess I better go take care. 918 01:07:26.639 --> 01:07:30.079 It's six forty one at fifty five KRCV talk station. 919 01:07:30.599 --> 01:07:32.679 Are you dreaming of? A Civil Rights Act? In nineteen 920 01:07:32.760 --> 01:07:37.079 sixty four bars sexual discrimination in the workplace? Sex discrimination 921 01:07:37.119 --> 01:07:42.280 rel A trial court in the sixth US Circuit Court 922 01:07:42.320 --> 01:07:46.280 of Appeals have ruled against this woman who is claiming 923 01:07:46.800 --> 01:07:53.559 she lost her job because she is straight. The Supreme 924 01:07:53.599 --> 01:08:02.000 Court is taking up that case Marlene Ames. The Justice's 925 01:08:02.159 --> 01:08:05.119 last Friday, agreed to review an appellate ruling that upheld 926 01:08:05.159 --> 01:08:09.599 the dismissal of the discrimination lawsuit filed by Marlene against 927 01:08:09.599 --> 01:08:13.880 the Ohio Department of Youth Services. Arguments will probably take 928 01:08:13.920 --> 01:08:17.199 place early next year. This is another one of those 929 01:08:17.880 --> 01:08:21.199 big landmark cases that the Supreme Court will be hearing 930 01:08:22.119 --> 01:08:29.000 in this new session about to begin. Ames worked for 931 01:08:29.039 --> 01:08:32.720 the department for twenty years, contend she was passed over 932 01:08:32.800 --> 01:08:36.399 for a promotion and then demoted because she is heterosexual. 933 01:08:38.079 --> 01:08:40.600 Both the jobs she sought and the one she held 934 01:08:41.359 --> 01:08:48.479 given to LGBTQ EI EIO people. The question for the 935 01:08:48.600 --> 01:08:52.600 justices is that the Sixth Circuit and several other appeals 936 01:08:52.600 --> 01:08:56.319 courts apply a higher standard when members of a majority 937 01:08:56.359 --> 01:09:01.520 group make discrimination claims. In other words, because there were 938 01:09:01.520 --> 01:09:08.560 more straight people than gay or lesbian people. The standards higher. 939 01:09:11.399 --> 01:09:15.720 People alleging workplace bias have to show background circumstances, including 940 01:09:15.720 --> 01:09:20.560 that LGBTQ people made the decisions affecting aims, or statistical 941 01:09:20.600 --> 01:09:23.880 evidence showing a pattern of discrimination against members of the 942 01:09:23.920 --> 01:09:30.560 majority group, and the Appeals Court said that she didn't 943 01:09:30.560 --> 01:09:33.800 provide any such circumstances. I don't know if this is 944 01:09:33.800 --> 01:09:36.239 true or not. I don't know if she lost her 945 01:09:36.319 --> 01:09:41.399 job with an Ohio agency, Department of Youth Services because 946 01:09:41.439 --> 01:09:47.119 she was not gay, but she's making that contention, and 947 01:09:47.159 --> 01:09:50.159 the Supreme Court has decided to take up the case 948 01:09:51.520 --> 01:09:54.800 the dismissal of that discrimination suit to find out. And 949 01:09:54.840 --> 01:09:57.479 also the other story which we kind of mentioned earlier. 950 01:09:57.479 --> 01:10:03.359 And you may have heard about a court in Clark County. 951 01:10:04.039 --> 01:10:08.640 I guess the county court there has referred a case 952 01:10:09.319 --> 01:10:12.079 against Donald Trump and JD Vance by a citizens group 953 01:10:12.119 --> 01:10:22.920 to prosecutors for comments they made, supposedly wrong comments or 954 01:10:24.680 --> 01:10:29.039 untrue comments they made about the Haitian immigrants in Springfield. 955 01:10:29.640 --> 01:10:36.119 The Bridge Alliance, the Haitian Bridge Alliance, are making us 956 01:10:36.159 --> 01:10:42.199 trying to make us citizens arrest. They're like Gomer on 957 01:10:42.680 --> 01:10:49.680 Andy Griffith trying to make a citizens arrest. But they 958 01:10:50.039 --> 01:10:54.840 because of the chaos and the threats that occurred after 959 01:10:54.880 --> 01:11:00.319 Donald Trump and JD Vance's statements about the Haitian immigrants 960 01:11:00.439 --> 01:11:05.680 in Springfield. And again, you drop fifteen to twenty thousand 961 01:11:05.760 --> 01:11:10.960 people who don't know the culture, don't know the language, 962 01:11:11.239 --> 01:11:17.319 don't care pretty much about any kind of assimilation into 963 01:11:17.399 --> 01:11:23.960 a new location, and you're gonna have issues. I don't 964 01:11:23.960 --> 01:11:26.600 know if they were eating dogs and cats. That's been 965 01:11:26.640 --> 01:11:31.680 the one sticking point here is that there were stories 966 01:11:31.720 --> 01:11:35.199 being related and then retold by Donald Trump and Jade 967 01:11:35.359 --> 01:11:41.920 Vance about the Haitian immigrants in Springfield stealing people's pets 968 01:11:41.960 --> 01:11:48.760 and eating them. What I have heard someone witness firsthand 969 01:11:49.640 --> 01:11:56.039 is some of these Haitian immigrants, not all of them, 970 01:11:56.199 --> 01:12:01.600 stealing and harvesting geese and ducks. Geese are illegal anytime 971 01:12:01.680 --> 01:12:04.600 and the ducks. There's a hunting season for that. And 972 01:12:04.640 --> 01:12:07.199 do they have hunting license? Oh wait, do they have 973 01:12:07.279 --> 01:12:12.199 driver's licenses while they're out driving cars illegally in Springfield 974 01:12:13.159 --> 01:12:17.880 causing accidents. I mean, you have to be on the 975 01:12:17.880 --> 01:12:21.159 ground to actually know what's happening. And because the mayor 976 01:12:21.159 --> 01:12:25.039 of Springfield and the governor of Ohio say that these 977 01:12:25.079 --> 01:12:29.560 are untrue, that doesn't mean Diddley squat because the mayor 978 01:12:29.600 --> 01:12:32.319 of Springfield is probably just trying to keep his head 979 01:12:32.319 --> 01:12:36.880 above water with the influx of all these people who 980 01:12:36.920 --> 01:12:40.159 don't speak the language and don't know how to drive 981 01:12:42.600 --> 01:12:46.960 into his community and hoping he I guess they're getting 982 01:12:47.000 --> 01:12:51.479 patting money from the government. I know the NGOs that 983 01:12:52.039 --> 01:12:54.199 help sponsor them and bring them in and get them 984 01:12:54.239 --> 01:13:02.000 temporary productive status, which doesn't expire I think till twenty 985 01:13:02.039 --> 01:13:06.079 twenty six, these fifteen to twenty thousand Haitians that were 986 01:13:06.079 --> 01:13:13.520 shipped into Springfield over the last few years. But I 987 01:13:13.600 --> 01:13:17.279 understand why the mayor would say, no, that's not true. 988 01:13:17.439 --> 01:13:19.920 He's got a town to run, and he's got a 989 01:13:19.960 --> 01:13:24.680 reputation to uphold and put the best face on. And 990 01:13:25.199 --> 01:13:30.039 the governor of Ohio, we know what a prize Mike 991 01:13:30.119 --> 01:13:38.079 Dowine is. Do you remember COVID? Do you remember the lockdowns? 992 01:13:40.199 --> 01:13:44.359 Do you remember the spacey chick who was his COVID advisor, 993 01:13:45.199 --> 01:13:53.399 Jody what was her name? Yes, Amy Acton, that weirdo 994 01:13:55.800 --> 01:13:59.319 who had about as much credibility as all of the 995 01:13:59.359 --> 01:14:05.439 rest of the lockdown oriented people during the pandemic or 996 01:14:05.479 --> 01:14:08.399 what I call the scamdemic. So, I mean, I wouldn't 997 01:14:08.399 --> 01:14:13.960 trust a word Mike DeWine says about anything because he's 998 01:14:14.000 --> 01:14:16.640 the head of a large political machine and got reelected 999 01:14:16.680 --> 01:14:20.479 in spite of his bungling of the COVID pandemic, like 1000 01:14:20.600 --> 01:14:24.199 so many politicians and people that supposedly work for us, 1001 01:14:24.600 --> 01:14:27.000 and the mayor of Springfield, I mean, he's going to 1002 01:14:27.039 --> 01:14:28.840 put the best face on the town. He's a mare 1003 01:14:28.880 --> 01:14:33.560 of so of course they're not going to cop to 1004 01:14:33.640 --> 01:14:36.880 any kind of chaos calls by the immigrants themselves. It's 1005 01:14:36.880 --> 01:14:40.840 the chaos of Donald Trump and JD. Vance talking about 1006 01:14:40.880 --> 01:14:47.880 the immigrants in Springfield that's the problem. But again we 1007 01:14:47.960 --> 01:14:51.960 will see where that goes. I would say, like a 1008 01:14:52.000 --> 01:14:56.760 lot of the other legal burning arrows that have been 1009 01:14:56.920 --> 01:15:02.439 flung Donald Trump's way, it will end in nothing because 1010 01:15:02.439 --> 01:15:08.119 there's nothing there. And then the claims that FEMA diverted 1011 01:15:08.159 --> 01:15:13.119 funds to immigration efforts instead of for American citizens who 1012 01:15:13.159 --> 01:15:17.239 are suffering right now by the thousands in North Carolina, 1013 01:15:17.319 --> 01:15:21.279 South Carolina, Georgia, and Tennessee. That's on the docket as 1014 01:15:21.279 --> 01:15:26.920 we continue on this Monday morning, October seventh, the Somber 1015 01:15:26.960 --> 01:15:33.520 anniversary of the attack on Israel by Iran and Homas 1016 01:15:35.359 --> 01:15:38.199 coming up on six fifty five. Again, we'll take that break. 1017 01:15:38.319 --> 01:15:40.800 Chris Mitherman will be with us about seven to twenty 1018 01:15:40.840 --> 01:15:45.359 this morning. And so it goes the morning show on 1019 01:15:45.479 --> 01:15:49.600 fifty five krs the talk station, the. 1020 01:15:49.640 --> 01:15:52.760 Latest on the election minutes away at the top of 1021 01:15:52.800 --> 01:15:54.600 the album, because you got to stay informed and up 1022 01:15:54.640 --> 01:16:00.439 to date.

And Jay had some 1034 01:16:42.159 --> 01:16:45.680 comments on my comments back on the back of my 1035 01:16:45.800 --> 01:16:49.880 comments about Governor de Wine before the top of the hour, Jay, 1036 01:16:49.920 --> 01:16:52.840 how are you hey? Good morning, Gary Jeff, How are 1037 01:16:52.880 --> 01:16:56.640 you going fine? Thank you very much. Hey. 1038 01:16:56.680 --> 01:17:01.800 There is a twenty nineteen inquirer Are article on Mike 1039 01:17:01.920 --> 01:17:06.720 DeWine working with the Trump administration to settle refugees in 1040 01:17:06.880 --> 01:17:11.840 Springfield from Haiti, and he has deep connections into Haiti 1041 01:17:11.920 --> 01:17:15.800 with his school down there was named after his daughter, 1042 01:17:17.000 --> 01:17:20.840 and he volunteered this without it making it public, so 1043 01:17:21.439 --> 01:17:25.079 they sort of trickled in during the Trump administration. One 1044 01:17:25.079 --> 01:17:28.159 thing I wanted to clear the record on is a 1045 01:17:28.199 --> 01:17:30.720 lot of the folks that are there from Haiti in 1046 01:17:30.840 --> 01:17:34.439 Springfield are not here illegally. They came through the border, 1047 01:17:35.239 --> 01:17:38.640 just like the people that are coming from Middle Eastern 1048 01:17:38.680 --> 01:17:42.600 countries and China, so they haven't gone through the refugee 1049 01:17:42.640 --> 01:17:47.199 settlement program, so they're technically illegally here and there, but. 1050 01:17:47.279 --> 01:17:50.720 They but they do have they do have temporary protected status. 1051 01:17:50.760 --> 01:17:52.359 Don't they as a blank. 1052 01:17:52.840 --> 01:17:55.279 If they've gone through the process. I'm sure a lot 1053 01:17:55.319 --> 01:17:58.640 of them have just dropped in and settled into life 1054 01:17:58.720 --> 01:18:02.760 and haven't done those So there is a share of them. 1055 01:18:03.000 --> 01:18:05.800 There is a share of them that are not legally 1056 01:18:05.880 --> 01:18:10.079 present in the country. But all the rumors that swirl 1057 01:18:10.119 --> 01:18:13.119 around about them having massive amounts of money on their 1058 01:18:13.119 --> 01:18:16.800 debit cards, all that stuff, I can't even imagine living 1059 01:18:16.840 --> 01:18:20.119 in Springfield. That city's been beaten up since you know, 1060 01:18:20.159 --> 01:18:22.000 the International Harvester. 1061 01:18:21.680 --> 01:18:22.880 Days, and. 1062 01:18:24.359 --> 01:18:28.800 It's it's never gotten back from having that happen. And 1063 01:18:28.880 --> 01:18:31.840 to have twenty thousand people that don't know the culture, 1064 01:18:31.880 --> 01:18:35.359 whether they're good or bad people, that mix is just 1065 01:18:35.399 --> 01:18:38.520 going to be toxic. And that to know that the 1066 01:18:38.600 --> 01:18:43.760 Wine worked with the Biden administration for that settlement without 1067 01:18:43.960 --> 01:18:47.119 announcing anything or making a public or even having his 1068 01:18:47.159 --> 01:18:49.119 fingerprints on it just ticks me off. 1069 01:18:49.640 --> 01:18:53.000 So it's been about five years. You said that Donald 1070 01:18:53.079 --> 01:18:56.479 Trump may have been involved with the first the first 1071 01:18:56.520 --> 01:18:58.840 trickle of the Haitian immigrants coming to Springfield. 1072 01:18:58.960 --> 01:19:04.039 Correct, it was after a hurricane that happened down there. Yeah, 1073 01:19:04.159 --> 01:19:06.479 they did a lot of destruction. They brought in maybe 1074 01:19:07.159 --> 01:19:11.199 three or fourth outdo three or four thousand from what 1075 01:19:11.319 --> 01:19:18.760 I remember from that article. But after Biden took office 1076 01:19:19.119 --> 01:19:23.359 and they had the massive surge across the border, that's 1077 01:19:23.359 --> 01:19:25.199 when the rest of them came in, and that was 1078 01:19:25.239 --> 01:19:26.560 cooperation with the wind. 1079 01:19:27.199 --> 01:19:29.640 Well, you know what that that sounds very similar to 1080 01:19:29.680 --> 01:19:33.840 the rest of the illegal immigration problem that we are 1081 01:19:33.880 --> 01:19:37.119 dealing with right now. Under Trump, it was a trickle, 1082 01:19:37.239 --> 01:19:40.880 and under Biden it's been just an onslaught. It's been 1083 01:19:41.000 --> 01:19:46.159 like a hurricane, like in gorgement into the country, and 1084 01:19:46.159 --> 01:19:50.199 it's just it's it's obvious to anyone with eyes to 1085 01:19:50.279 --> 01:19:55.520 see who was the better commander in chief when it 1086 01:19:55.600 --> 01:20:00.319 came to dealing with illegal immigration. I don't think there's. 1087 01:20:00.159 --> 01:20:02.760 Any time else. I don't think it's a matter of 1088 01:20:02.920 --> 01:20:06.640 enforcement on the Biden administration. I think this was on purpose. 1089 01:20:07.199 --> 01:20:10.119 They opened the floodgates, they let it happen. They did 1090 01:20:10.159 --> 01:20:13.840 it on purpose. It's not a matter of being inept 1091 01:20:14.119 --> 01:20:16.359 or not able to do your job, may orcus as 1092 01:20:16.720 --> 01:20:23.000 a demon. And this all happened for a reason for them, 1093 01:20:23.399 --> 01:20:25.920 I think, partially to build up a voter base when 1094 01:20:25.920 --> 01:20:27.560 they get all these people legalized. 1095 01:20:27.960 --> 01:20:32.640 Well, sure, and like I said earlier, you're not just 1096 01:20:32.840 --> 01:20:37.439 firing the Democrat in charge in the White House, whoever 1097 01:20:37.560 --> 01:20:42.359 that may be. But you're firing may Orcus, You're firing 1098 01:20:42.439 --> 01:20:48.000 Buddhage Edge, You're firing Gina Romando, who is totally incompetent 1099 01:20:48.000 --> 01:20:53.000 as college it doesn't know she I mean, she has 1100 01:20:53.039 --> 01:20:55.399 asked a direct question about something that is supposed to 1101 01:20:55.399 --> 01:20:58.119 be her purview and she has no idea. Oh, refer 1102 01:20:58.159 --> 01:21:01.279 to the White House on this. So if you vote 1103 01:21:01.279 --> 01:21:05.960 for Donald Trump and he wins, all these people go away, 1104 01:21:06.119 --> 01:21:10.399 go bye bye. All these incompetent DEI hires and everything 1105 01:21:10.520 --> 01:21:15.479 else that has been associated with the Biden administration goes away, 1106 01:21:16.079 --> 01:21:20.680 and people just think they're hiring a president. But what 1107 01:21:20.720 --> 01:21:25.359 they're doing is they're hiring a new president who are 1108 01:21:25.720 --> 01:21:28.279 we already have a track record of what he can 1109 01:21:28.359 --> 01:21:31.520 do and did as President of the United States. But 1110 01:21:31.640 --> 01:21:36.159 you're also hiring a whole new set of these department 1111 01:21:36.239 --> 01:21:42.199 heads and secretaries for the Washington bureaucracy who may actually 1112 01:21:42.239 --> 01:21:45.039 know what they're doing, don't you think? Yeah? 1113 01:21:45.079 --> 01:21:48.840 Absolutely, I can't remember the name of the gentleman was there. 1114 01:21:48.920 --> 01:21:54.119 Was Trump's last secretary of State. He was absolutely amazing. 1115 01:21:54.319 --> 01:21:56.680 He was the best diplomat that I've seen in that 1116 01:21:56.800 --> 01:22:01.119 role since probably the Clinton administration, even calling back all 1117 01:22:01.159 --> 01:22:05.079 the way to Reagan. He kept the world at peace. 1118 01:22:05.279 --> 01:22:10.800 He was strong, he was decisive, he didn't waiver, and 1119 01:22:11.000 --> 01:22:15.279 he put America's interests first, and the world was calm. 1120 01:22:15.680 --> 01:22:18.119 And look what we have now. The world's on fire. 1121 01:22:18.159 --> 01:22:22.000 We're in World War three. It's just getting started. Well, 1122 01:22:22.079 --> 01:22:25.800 you're getting rid of all those those current administration. 1123 01:22:27.239 --> 01:22:27.600 Folks. 1124 01:22:27.680 --> 01:22:28.399 Is going to be great. 1125 01:22:28.880 --> 01:22:30.159 It's the only hope we have. 1126 01:22:31.000 --> 01:22:34.159 I mean, Pete Buddha Judge has spent most of his 1127 01:22:34.239 --> 01:22:40.920 time in office learning how to breastfeed his adopted Thank you, 1128 01:22:41.319 --> 01:22:45.119 appreciate your thanks for listening. Another JA, we got dueling. 1129 01:22:45.279 --> 01:22:48.000 Jay's on the phone. Jay, you're on the air. What's 1130 01:22:48.039 --> 01:22:55.399 going on? Jay? Yeah, that's you. We went from one, 1131 01:22:55.560 --> 01:22:58.560 We went from one JA to another. J Great. 1132 01:22:59.039 --> 01:23:01.560 Hey, I just want to build on the previous day 1133 01:23:02.159 --> 01:23:02.520 he got. 1134 01:23:03.039 --> 01:23:05.960 I think, unless there's a couple of articles, I think 1135 01:23:05.960 --> 01:23:09.920 he got something a little bit wrong. In twenty nineteen, 1136 01:23:11.319 --> 01:23:15.399 Trump reached out to each of the governors in each 1137 01:23:15.399 --> 01:23:18.439 of the fifty states and through an executive order and said, 1138 01:23:19.000 --> 01:23:21.520 we're going to push the decision to immigration back to 1139 01:23:21.560 --> 01:23:25.319 the States, which I agree with. And he went to 1140 01:23:25.439 --> 01:23:29.279 all of the governors via Mike Pompeo and said do 1141 01:23:29.359 --> 01:23:33.960 you want to do you want more immigration or do 1142 01:23:34.000 --> 01:23:38.479 you want to shut it down? And Mike DeWine said, absolutely, 1143 01:23:38.640 --> 01:23:41.119 we want more immigration. And if you just do a 1144 01:23:41.199 --> 01:23:45.760 search on the Wine immigration Pompeo, you'll find it all 1145 01:23:45.800 --> 01:23:48.359 over the place. I'm looking at an article right now 1146 01:23:48.399 --> 01:23:52.239 from Idea Stream Public Media says dew Wine pushes back 1147 01:23:52.279 --> 01:23:56.640 on White House immigration policy and the gentleman is right. 1148 01:23:57.359 --> 01:23:58.600 The Wine has had. 1149 01:23:58.720 --> 01:24:03.640 Decades of relationships of talks. In this article, He's been 1150 01:24:03.680 --> 01:24:06.319 to Haiti over a couple hundred times, has a school 1151 01:24:06.479 --> 01:24:09.439 that is now defunct called the Becky DeWine School down 1152 01:24:09.479 --> 01:24:12.479 there in Haiti, was working with the Catholic Church down 1153 01:24:12.520 --> 01:24:15.359 there in Haiti. And with there being over three hundred 1154 01:24:15.439 --> 01:24:19.960 countries around the globe, I find that it is statistically 1155 01:24:20.760 --> 01:24:25.199 off the charts significant that Springfield is overrun with Haitians. 1156 01:24:25.279 --> 01:24:27.840 At the same time, when we have a governor who 1157 01:24:27.960 --> 01:24:32.359 has this close tie with Catholic charities of some sort 1158 01:24:32.479 --> 01:24:35.039 down in Haiti, and I think it's way past time 1159 01:24:35.119 --> 01:24:38.479 for answers. So so Trump The only thing that the 1160 01:24:38.479 --> 01:24:42.680 previous Jay got wrong was Trump wasn't pushing for immigration. 1161 01:24:42.840 --> 01:24:45.159 Trump was trying to shut it down. And Trump was 1162 01:24:45.199 --> 01:24:49.399 asking the governors and let the governors choose, and unfortunately 1163 01:24:50.279 --> 01:24:53.439 thirty out of the fifty governors said no, we're good, 1164 01:24:53.520 --> 01:24:56.680 let them. You know, we want more immigration. Only twenty 1165 01:24:57.479 --> 01:25:00.319 said no, thanks, appreciate to help, mister pres and it 1166 01:25:00.520 --> 01:25:02.520 shut it down. We're good, we don't want any more 1167 01:25:02.520 --> 01:25:03.199 in our state. 1168 01:25:03.840 --> 01:25:06.479 Well, it's you know what, and Jay, it's similar to 1169 01:25:07.520 --> 01:25:14.199 Trump's real stand on the abortion issue, he says, and 1170 01:25:14.319 --> 01:25:17.359 rightly so, because the Supreme Court ruled it that this 1171 01:25:17.479 --> 01:25:20.199 is an issue that is a state's issue, not the 1172 01:25:20.199 --> 01:25:23.279 federal government. And yet he's being tagged with being someone 1173 01:25:23.520 --> 01:25:29.680 who wants a federal abortion man. Trump Trump knows the Constitution, 1174 01:25:30.399 --> 01:25:33.800 and he has been trying to follow it. Uh, you know, 1175 01:25:34.840 --> 01:25:38.439 directly in opposition with what the Democrats and Kamala Harris 1176 01:25:38.479 --> 01:25:40.079 are saying about him. 1177 01:25:40.439 --> 01:25:42.520 Right right, Well, what I do think, and I do 1178 01:25:42.600 --> 01:25:45.920 applaud the previous Jay. We do need to get more 1179 01:25:45.920 --> 01:25:49.800 word out, Derek, because it is silent about the Wine's 1180 01:25:50.119 --> 01:25:53.159 culpability with all of this that he was given the 1181 01:25:53.199 --> 01:25:56.119 opportunity with a president in the White House saying, okay, 1182 01:25:56.119 --> 01:25:58.279 it's your ball, what do you want to do? And 1183 01:25:58.439 --> 01:26:01.359 his answer was and you read the article, it talks 1184 01:26:01.359 --> 01:26:04.560 about how Ohio has a rich heritage, We've got excellent 1185 01:26:04.640 --> 01:26:08.640 systems in place, we've been extremely successful with controlling immigration, 1186 01:26:08.720 --> 01:26:10.399 and there was no reason to change anything. 1187 01:26:10.800 --> 01:26:12.079 So why doesn't he step. 1188 01:26:11.880 --> 01:26:13.880 Up to a microphone or why doesn't somebody put a 1189 01:26:13.880 --> 01:26:17.479 microphone in front of him and say explain yourself? But 1190 01:26:17.880 --> 01:26:20.680 again he sits there quietly with his hands in his pockets, 1191 01:26:20.760 --> 01:26:24.119 and everybody points to the what's going on down in DC. 1192 01:26:24.720 --> 01:26:26.520 We don't have to go any further than Columbus. 1193 01:26:26.560 --> 01:26:27.319 All we need is. 1194 01:26:27.680 --> 01:26:32.399 Journalists who have some backbone and can get off their 1195 01:26:32.439 --> 01:26:35.159 ass and go ask tough questions up into Columbus. But 1196 01:26:35.239 --> 01:26:37.159 it seems to be that the silence is deafening. 1197 01:26:38.439 --> 01:26:42.640 Well, Jay, thank you very much, and I think that's excellent, 1198 01:26:42.840 --> 01:26:48.119 excellent advice. But will anyone follow it real quickly? West side? Jim, 1199 01:26:48.119 --> 01:26:49.119 how you doing, my brother? 1200 01:26:50.239 --> 01:26:51.600 Good morning, mister Walker. 1201 01:26:51.800 --> 01:26:52.760 How I'm going fine? 1202 01:26:52.760 --> 01:26:55.239 I'll make it quick because mister Smitherman is coming on 1203 01:26:55.319 --> 01:26:58.560 in about fifteen minutes and there's nothing better than mister Smith. 1204 01:26:59.079 --> 01:27:02.479 It's actually coming on early today, so please. 1205 01:27:02.359 --> 01:27:05.960 Well, I'll make this quick when we vote this time, 1206 01:27:06.640 --> 01:27:10.359 Remember this is a local go down the whole ballot. 1207 01:27:10.560 --> 01:27:14.439 Our judges are probably one of the most besides Melissa Powers, 1208 01:27:14.840 --> 01:27:19.239 who basically controls the judges to an extent. That is 1209 01:27:19.279 --> 01:27:22.520 the most important part of this election because we learned 1210 01:27:22.840 --> 01:27:25.199 through the last one without two hundred and seventy five 1211 01:27:25.279 --> 01:27:30.199 years to three on as far as capabilities and experience, 1212 01:27:30.720 --> 01:27:33.960 that we've got a serious problem in Hamilton County with 1213 01:27:34.039 --> 01:27:38.800 these inexperienced judges and the lack of the quorum in 1214 01:27:38.960 --> 01:27:43.560 their courtrooms. So I'm imploring everybody to make sure you 1215 01:27:43.600 --> 01:27:46.039 go down that whole ballot. Just don't skip it at 1216 01:27:46.119 --> 01:27:50.520 Donald Trumps and walk off or even Sonza, which you've 1217 01:27:50.560 --> 01:27:52.920 got to vote for both of them. Go down with 1218 01:27:53.159 --> 01:27:56.920 gop dot com on the judges, learn who they are, 1219 01:27:57.319 --> 01:27:59.640 and make sure that you vote for the Republicans. 1220 01:28:00.079 --> 01:28:01.880 And that's all I got, buddy, Well, and. 1221 01:28:02.039 --> 01:28:04.239 That's all we need. But you're right, there is nothing 1222 01:28:04.279 --> 01:28:08.720 more important, especially on a grassroots local level, than making 1223 01:28:08.800 --> 01:28:13.079 sure our judicial system has confident people who will follow 1224 01:28:13.119 --> 01:28:17.359 the law. Thank you, sir, Chris Smitherman coming up next 1225 01:28:17.680 --> 01:28:19.920 on fifty five KRC, the Talk Station. 1226 01:28:20.399 --> 01:28:22.800 Inexperienced prosecutors across the country. 1227 01:28:23.720 --> 01:28:30.079 At seven twenty one, earlier than usual, we get Christopher 1228 01:28:30.079 --> 01:28:39.279 Smitherman live prime time on fifty five KRC the Talk Station.

A great lineup already. 1234 01:28:51.039 --> 01:28:57.640 I heard the Republican Party chairman Judge Mack come on 1235 01:28:57.760 --> 01:29:01.199 and given update. Here's what I want to touch on, brother, 1236 01:29:02.000 --> 01:29:04.880 and why I wanted a little extra time. One. I 1237 01:29:04.960 --> 01:29:08.600 want to just acknowledge Breast Cancer Awareness Month. That's happening, 1238 01:29:08.760 --> 01:29:10.279 Amen right now. 1239 01:29:10.600 --> 01:29:15.039 Since I'm since I am living with a breast cancer survivor. Chris, 1240 01:29:15.640 --> 01:29:18.399 Amen again, Well. 1241 01:29:18.279 --> 01:29:24.640 First, congratulations to your to your spouse who is a survivor. 1242 01:29:25.039 --> 01:29:27.000 And that's what we're in the game to do. We 1243 01:29:27.039 --> 01:29:31.079 want to meet and talk and have survivors. My wife 1244 01:29:31.199 --> 01:29:37.000 unfortunately did not survive breast cancer, but but we look 1245 01:29:37.520 --> 01:29:41.760 to women like in your life who are survivors. I 1246 01:29:41.880 --> 01:29:46.479 sit on a board, the Karen Wellington Board, and our 1247 01:29:46.600 --> 01:29:50.159 job is just to put fun on the calendar for 1248 01:29:50.479 --> 01:29:54.640 women who are fighting breast cancer. So as they're going 1249 01:29:54.640 --> 01:29:57.520 through their treatments, we send them on trips, we have 1250 01:29:57.680 --> 01:30:01.399 them have spaw days. We just love on them to 1251 01:30:01.640 --> 01:30:03.920 just make their moments normal. And I know you know 1252 01:30:04.039 --> 01:30:06.680 that having a woman in your life that has gone 1253 01:30:06.720 --> 01:30:09.399 through treatment, so I just want to acknowledge that this 1254 01:30:09.520 --> 01:30:12.119 is breast cancer awareness. We love seeing the ribbons, we 1255 01:30:12.239 --> 01:30:14.880 love seeing the pink shirts, we love seeing the pink hats, 1256 01:30:15.159 --> 01:30:20.199 we love seeing men involved with this, like yourself, and 1257 01:30:20.520 --> 01:30:22.079 we just want to love on those. And if there's 1258 01:30:22.079 --> 01:30:24.920 a woman listening to you and I today, we want 1259 01:30:25.000 --> 01:30:27.319 them to know that they're going to make it, that 1260 01:30:27.319 --> 01:30:30.399 their treatment is going to be successful, and that we 1261 01:30:30.479 --> 01:30:33.119 care very deeply for them. So thank you very much 1262 01:30:33.159 --> 01:30:35.840 for allowing me to start off by just talking about 1263 01:30:35.880 --> 01:30:36.800 breast cancer awareness. 1264 01:30:36.840 --> 01:30:40.319 Mine, Chris, I got to tell you, and hearing you 1265 01:30:40.359 --> 01:30:43.439 speak about it, I know how passionate you are because 1266 01:30:43.479 --> 01:30:46.560 of your own personal experience and once you went through 1267 01:30:46.600 --> 01:30:53.119 with your wife. But we were so blessed by the 1268 01:30:53.199 --> 01:30:57.439 fact that the cancer had not spread at the time 1269 01:30:57.479 --> 01:31:01.560 it was caught. And I still say that that early 1270 01:31:01.640 --> 01:31:05.399 real screening is the best thing that anyone can do 1271 01:31:05.520 --> 01:31:10.079 when it comes to treating breast cancer because the earlier, 1272 01:31:10.159 --> 01:31:14.319 you know, the more they can do and the more 1273 01:31:14.359 --> 01:31:18.079 they can work to keep it from, you know, becoming 1274 01:31:18.960 --> 01:31:23.760 a life ending kind of situation. But we were so blessed. 1275 01:31:24.680 --> 01:31:31.000 We walked into doctor Gunther's office for the consultation after 1276 01:31:31.039 --> 01:31:36.039 they had found the mass, and he is the picture 1277 01:31:36.079 --> 01:31:39.359 of it as we're in the office. First thing, they 1278 01:31:39.359 --> 01:31:43.800 were still doing some COVID protocols with masks at the time, 1279 01:31:44.560 --> 01:31:46.640 and we got in the room and he said, you 1280 01:31:46.640 --> 01:31:49.199 guys want to wear these masks? No, is it good? 1281 01:31:49.560 --> 01:31:52.079 And we all took our masks off. That was that 1282 01:31:52.199 --> 01:31:54.880 was strike one in the right direction. The second thing 1283 01:31:55.359 --> 01:32:00.520 is he has the sonic sonic image of the cancer, 1284 01:32:00.600 --> 01:32:03.399 the little white dot there. He said, you know, I 1285 01:32:03.439 --> 01:32:06.800 got to tell you I like this. He said, I 1286 01:32:06.880 --> 01:32:09.880 like this tumor. And we're like, look, you like this tumor? 1287 01:32:09.920 --> 01:32:13.279 He said, because it's it's what I call a wimpy tumor. 1288 01:32:16.479 --> 01:32:18.720 And they were able to get it all. They took 1289 01:32:18.920 --> 01:32:20.840 a lymph note out of course, to make sure that 1290 01:32:20.880 --> 01:32:24.640 there was no cancer surrounding where they had taken the 1291 01:32:24.720 --> 01:32:29.239 wimpy tumor from and and then it was radiation and 1292 01:32:29.239 --> 01:32:32.840 no chemo. So we were very very lucky, very blessed 1293 01:32:33.560 --> 01:32:36.399 that it was caught early and we had the kind 1294 01:32:36.439 --> 01:32:39.640 of quality of care. But the story is different for everyone, 1295 01:32:40.119 --> 01:32:44.880 and then there's always the danger of recurrence once you. 1296 01:32:44.920 --> 01:32:50.119 Have That's all very true, you know, But I want 1297 01:32:50.119 --> 01:32:54.239 to say to you first First, your story is just 1298 01:32:54.319 --> 01:32:58.439 a heartwarming for me. And again I can't stress and 1299 01:32:58.560 --> 01:33:03.520 those who have who have had breast cancer and survived, 1300 01:33:03.600 --> 01:33:07.159 whether there is a widower who's listening, we love to 1301 01:33:07.279 --> 01:33:11.880 hear those success stories like yours, that wimpy tumor that 1302 01:33:12.079 --> 01:33:14.840 was treated, and your wife is a survivor because she 1303 01:33:14.920 --> 01:33:18.079 can spread the word and give so many other women 1304 01:33:18.319 --> 01:33:21.399 hope right that there is a cure and that there 1305 01:33:21.520 --> 01:33:25.720 is a way to treat. And I will again stress 1306 01:33:25.840 --> 01:33:30.359 that anyone listening who would like to nominate someone for 1307 01:33:30.479 --> 01:33:34.720 the Karen Wellington Gift, just go to our website at 1308 01:33:34.800 --> 01:33:40.760 www dot Karenwellington dot com. We were mean Pamela, my wife, 1309 01:33:40.760 --> 01:33:45.159 Pamela and I benefited from the Karen Wellington Foundation where 1310 01:33:45.199 --> 01:33:48.800 they put fun on our calendar, end of life, four 1311 01:33:48.960 --> 01:33:52.720 stage and it was a beautiful weekend downtown with our 1312 01:33:52.880 --> 01:33:56.800 entire immediate family and Pamela's mother. And it's something that 1313 01:33:56.840 --> 01:33:59.880 my daughter, who is now sixteen at the time she 1314 01:34:00.079 --> 01:34:04.880 with ten, still reflects on, still remembers that trip and 1315 01:34:04.920 --> 01:34:07.960 the fun that we had with pam. So that's what 1316 01:34:08.119 --> 01:34:12.680 makes the Karen Wellington Foundation so wonderful and so beautiful 1317 01:34:12.760 --> 01:34:16.720 because we're not there to deal with more treatment. We're 1318 01:34:16.760 --> 01:34:20.079 there to put fun on the calendar for those women. 1319 01:34:20.319 --> 01:34:24.920 Oh, it's such a great, great way to help. Chris, 1320 01:34:24.920 --> 01:34:27.279 I'll tell you what. We got plenty more of time 1321 01:34:27.359 --> 01:34:29.760 together if if you will allow us more time, and 1322 01:34:29.800 --> 01:34:32.439 we're going to take a quick break and come back. Okay, 1323 01:34:33.079 --> 01:34:35.600 thank you, brother, you got it.

Garry Jampan for Brian Thomas with 1342 01:35:33.640 --> 01:35:36.960 mister Smitherman, and again he wanted to highlight in the 1343 01:35:37.000 --> 01:35:41.399 last segment again Carrington Karen Wellington Foundation to put fun 1344 01:35:41.439 --> 01:35:44.399 on the calendar for people who are women who are 1345 01:35:44.760 --> 01:35:47.720 and their families who are dealing with breast cancer during 1346 01:35:47.760 --> 01:35:53.640 Breast Cancer Awareness Month October. Chris, so, a couple of things, 1347 01:35:53.720 --> 01:35:55.840 A couple of things on the table. What else was? 1348 01:35:56.399 --> 01:35:59.399 What else was you know buzzing around your brain this 1349 01:35:59.479 --> 01:36:01.359 morning that you want to do address anything? 1350 01:36:01.800 --> 01:36:06.359 Well, let me tell you, brother, this hurricane situation has 1351 01:36:06.399 --> 01:36:09.000 so many tentacles to it. But let me just like 1352 01:36:09.039 --> 01:36:12.039 the rest of the United States of America, if you're 1353 01:36:12.079 --> 01:36:15.279 an American, your heart has to go out to those 1354 01:36:15.319 --> 01:36:21.119 who live in Florida, Georgia, and specifically North Carolina. Today 1355 01:36:20.960 --> 01:36:26.640 we have Americans who are suffering. They're not in Ukraine, right, 1356 01:36:27.119 --> 01:36:32.840 They're not in Taiwan, right, they are right here in 1357 01:36:32.880 --> 01:36:36.880 the United States of America, in the hills hills of 1358 01:36:36.920 --> 01:36:40.560 North Carolina. And we still have You have a death 1359 01:36:40.600 --> 01:36:44.079 toll of two hundred and twenty five Gary, Jeff, You 1360 01:36:44.159 --> 01:36:47.239 and I know that that death toll by the time 1361 01:36:47.279 --> 01:36:50.840 we get back next Monday is going to spike dramatically 1362 01:36:51.199 --> 01:36:53.520 because there are people right now who do not know 1363 01:36:53.560 --> 01:36:57.199 where their children are, They don't know where their spouses are, 1364 01:36:57.359 --> 01:37:00.359 they don't know where their grandmothers are because they were 1365 01:37:00.399 --> 01:37:05.199 swept away in the water, houses and structures. People that 1366 01:37:05.239 --> 01:37:08.760 were on top of their roofs were swept away. The 1367 01:37:08.920 --> 01:37:12.119 tragedy in all of this, Brother, is that we have 1368 01:37:12.239 --> 01:37:18.399 an organization DHS and FEMA, who, in my opinion, has 1369 01:37:18.560 --> 01:37:23.199 failed Georgia and North Carolina. See, the reason Florida does 1370 01:37:23.239 --> 01:37:27.800 well is their governor is prepared organized. He has it 1371 01:37:27.920 --> 01:37:32.000 because so many hurricanes like Milton, who's building right now 1372 01:37:32.319 --> 01:37:35.479 and most likely will hit Florida in the next two days. 1373 01:37:35.880 --> 01:37:39.000 But they are a state that they deal with it. 1374 01:37:39.079 --> 01:37:42.920 Not that they don't have death and destruction Gary Jeff, 1375 01:37:42.960 --> 01:37:45.399 But the reality of it is they have a governor 1376 01:37:45.439 --> 01:37:47.960 and a team that are prepared. We didn't know what 1377 01:37:48.159 --> 01:37:50.399 was going to hit Georgia. We didn't know what was 1378 01:37:50.399 --> 01:37:53.119 going to hit South Carolina because it hasn't happened there 1379 01:37:53.239 --> 01:37:56.319 in a thousand years. So the reality of it is, 1380 01:37:56.600 --> 01:37:59.439 this is when you need your government the most and 1381 01:37:59.520 --> 01:38:02.760 to wait up and here a sending money to Lebanon 1382 01:38:03.039 --> 01:38:05.600 saying we're going to take care of them. We're gonna 1383 01:38:05.600 --> 01:38:09.119 send hundreds of millions of dollars there when we can't 1384 01:38:09.159 --> 01:38:13.199 find a helicopter to go into the hills of North 1385 01:38:13.199 --> 01:38:17.720 Carolina and bring Americans home. Here's the reality, preach. You 1386 01:38:17.800 --> 01:38:21.239 have people there, you have preachers, There'll be preachers. You 1387 01:38:21.279 --> 01:38:25.720 have people there, brother who have high blood pressure, who 1388 01:38:25.840 --> 01:38:30.119 needed their blood pressure medication over the last eleven days, 1389 01:38:30.159 --> 01:38:33.920 and because they didn't get it, they're dying. They're people 1390 01:38:33.960 --> 01:38:38.239 that need oxygen, they're dying. See the reality of it 1391 01:38:38.319 --> 01:38:41.000 is is we could prevent these things if we had 1392 01:38:41.039 --> 01:38:45.720 a government that was prepared. Whether it's incompetence, whether it 1393 01:38:45.800 --> 01:38:49.439 is political, I have no idea. All I'm saying is 1394 01:38:49.439 --> 01:38:52.800 when you listen to the people on the ground, not FEMA, 1395 01:38:53.239 --> 01:38:56.520 not the talking kids they're telling you, I don't know 1396 01:38:56.560 --> 01:38:59.600 where the hell FEMA is. The people that are supporting 1397 01:38:59.640 --> 01:39:02.560 us are our churches. The people that are supporting us 1398 01:39:02.600 --> 01:39:06.000 are our neighbors. The people that are supporting us are 1399 01:39:06.079 --> 01:39:09.439 people who are coming here and volunteering and bringing their 1400 01:39:09.479 --> 01:39:12.960 private helicopters and lifting us out of the hill. Now 1401 01:39:12.960 --> 01:39:15.800 we know that the military and the Guard have arrived 1402 01:39:15.880 --> 01:39:18.399 there in the last forty eight hours and they're lifting 1403 01:39:18.439 --> 01:39:21.039 people out, but that's not what was happening over the 1404 01:39:21.119 --> 01:39:25.159 last nine days, and people lost their lives because our 1405 01:39:25.239 --> 01:39:28.600 government wasn't prepared. And we have a White House that's 1406 01:39:28.640 --> 01:39:32.520 still sending money to Lebanon, still sending money to Ukraine. 1407 01:39:32.720 --> 01:39:35.720 Now listen, brother, those of you who support Ukraine. I'm 1408 01:39:35.760 --> 01:39:39.800 not pooh pooing on you. Here's what I'm saying, Americans. First, 1409 01:39:40.239 --> 01:39:42.159 we've got to be able to take care of our 1410 01:39:42.199 --> 01:39:44.960 own people before we start taking care of the whole 1411 01:39:45.039 --> 01:39:46.159 damn world. 1412 01:39:46.319 --> 01:39:51.560 Amen, and you know and Mike Johnson addressed the issue 1413 01:39:52.000 --> 01:39:55.359 of the claims that FEMA diverted funds to immigration efforts, 1414 01:39:56.239 --> 01:39:58.720 and he said, I understand why American people are disgusting, 1415 01:39:59.239 --> 01:40:03.439 so breaking that down. And you brought this up, Chris 1416 01:40:03.720 --> 01:40:08.199 in your diatribe. Here he said on Fox News on Sunday. 1417 01:40:08.199 --> 01:40:10.640 The streams of funding are different. That is not an 1418 01:40:10.680 --> 01:40:13.960 untrue statement, of course, but here's here's what happened. The 1419 01:40:14.000 --> 01:40:18.000 Federal Emergency Management Agency, whose mission is to help people 1420 01:40:18.039 --> 01:40:20.920 in times like this, a natural disaster, and not to 1421 01:40:20.960 --> 01:40:23.640 be engaged in using any pool of funding from any 1422 01:40:23.680 --> 01:40:27.720 account for resettling illegal aliens have come across the border. 1423 01:40:28.319 --> 01:40:31.920 This is what the Biden administration, Kamala Harris and Secretary 1424 01:40:32.000 --> 01:40:36.359 Mayorcus of the DHS have been engaged in. Now. He 1425 01:40:36.479 --> 01:40:41.319 also said that when may Orcus said they were out 1426 01:40:41.359 --> 01:40:48.399 of money, that's not necessarily true. So uh but but 1427 01:40:48.680 --> 01:40:52.680 the entire administration, including their press secretary. You want to 1428 01:40:52.720 --> 01:40:57.880 talk about a level, a level of incompetence, you need 1429 01:40:57.920 --> 01:41:00.640 to look no farther than the White House Press Secretary 1430 01:41:00.960 --> 01:41:05.920 Kareeine John Pierre, because in twenty twenty two, she said 1431 01:41:06.079 --> 01:41:09.239 FEMA Regional administrators have been meeting with city officials on 1432 01:41:09.319 --> 01:41:12.520 site to coordinate to coordinate available federal support from FEMA 1433 01:41:12.520 --> 01:41:16.399 and other federal agencies. Funding is also available through FEMA's 1434 01:41:16.439 --> 01:41:20.560 Emergency Food and Shelter Program to eligible local governments and 1435 01:41:20.560 --> 01:41:24.800 not for profit organizations upon request to support humanitarian relief 1436 01:41:24.920 --> 01:41:28.359 for migrants. That's not what FEMA's that's not what they're 1437 01:41:28.399 --> 01:41:31.560 supposed to be doing with any of our taxpayer money. 1438 01:41:31.640 --> 01:41:33.479 Chris will take a quick break and come back for 1439 01:41:33.520 --> 01:41:36.600 one more segment. All right, brother, Yes, sir, bro you 1440 01:41:36.680 --> 01:41:39.319 got a Chris Smithman with us on the morning show 1441 01:41:39.319 --> 01:41:44.079 on fifty five KRCV talk station Steve Air with USA Installation. 1442 01:41:44.199 --> 01:41:46.159 It's getting time to get your home ready for the 1443 01:41:46.199 --> 01:41:49.079 fall and winter heating season. Our premium falling year walls 1444 01:41:49.199 --> 01:41:52.159 is the end ye ever since they have started construction 1445 01:41:52.399 --> 01:41:56.880 on the four seventy one, the Big Mac Bridge. Any 1446 01:41:57.000 --> 01:41:59.439 kind of little hiccup like the accident this morning is 1447 01:41:59.479 --> 01:42:01.760 going to throw your way off on your schedule, So 1448 01:42:02.560 --> 01:42:05.399 leave early if you got to. We continue our conversation 1449 01:42:05.479 --> 01:42:11.039 with Christopher Smitherman on this Monday morning, October seventh, and Chris, 1450 01:42:12.039 --> 01:42:15.319 today is the last day to register to vote in 1451 01:42:15.439 --> 01:42:20.520 Ohio tomorrow the voting begins. Would you encourage people to 1452 01:42:20.600 --> 01:42:21.079 vote early? 1453 01:42:22.560 --> 01:42:26.359 Brother, you couldn't have tieved me up any better. Look, 1454 01:42:26.880 --> 01:42:29.600 there are sixty year olds listening to us right now, 1455 01:42:29.720 --> 01:42:33.159 fifty year old, seventy year olds across this great state 1456 01:42:33.760 --> 01:42:36.239 and any state that's listening all the way down to Florida. 1457 01:42:36.640 --> 01:42:40.920 Millions of people who have never registered and never voted 1458 01:42:41.000 --> 01:42:44.439 in their life. I want to encourage them listening to 1459 01:42:44.520 --> 01:42:47.199 their brother right now, and you their brother right now, 1460 01:42:47.880 --> 01:42:50.720 to do something different in this election and understand that 1461 01:42:50.760 --> 01:42:53.600 we need you. And today is the last day to 1462 01:42:53.680 --> 01:42:56.640 get to your board of elections and register to vote. 1463 01:42:57.239 --> 01:42:59.479 These races that are going to happen are going to 1464 01:42:59.520 --> 01:43:02.680 come down to thousands of votes, even though millions of them. 1465 01:43:02.520 --> 01:43:03.479 Are going to be cast. 1466 01:43:04.000 --> 01:43:05.760 So if you're listening to me right now and you 1467 01:43:05.840 --> 01:43:09.640 think that your vote doesn't count, it really counts. In 1468 01:43:09.680 --> 01:43:14.000 this upcoming election, states will move by ten thousand votes 1469 01:43:14.079 --> 01:43:18.000 even though millions of votes have been cast. Our friend, 1470 01:43:18.079 --> 01:43:21.079 your friend, Jim Keeper, is right that when you do 1471 01:43:21.159 --> 01:43:24.840 show up and vote, don't just vote for president, vote 1472 01:43:24.880 --> 01:43:29.600 down the entire ticket. Go prepared, meaning think about what 1473 01:43:29.640 --> 01:43:32.119 you're going to do before you get there, because there 1474 01:43:32.159 --> 01:43:36.600 are some positions that do not have designations, meaning of 1475 01:43:36.640 --> 01:43:40.279 their political party, So you have to go in thinking, Hey, 1476 01:43:40.319 --> 01:43:42.600 who do I want to vote for and what do 1477 01:43:42.640 --> 01:43:45.680 I want to have happen here? Today is the last 1478 01:43:45.720 --> 01:43:50.199 day to vote. I heard I heard the chairman mock say, 1479 01:43:50.279 --> 01:43:52.800 this is a last day to register. Well, that means 1480 01:43:52.800 --> 01:43:55.680 that thousands of people could listen to you and I 1481 01:43:55.840 --> 01:43:59.640 right now. Thousands of people who are not registered never 1482 01:43:59.720 --> 01:44:02.840 vote if they're a seventeen year old. I register somebody 1483 01:44:02.880 --> 01:44:05.439 on Friday or Thursday of last week who is going 1484 01:44:05.520 --> 01:44:08.840 to turn seventeen next week, but they'll be seven, they'll 1485 01:44:08.880 --> 01:44:11.479 be eighteen, I mean eighteen. Excuse me, they'll be eighteen 1486 01:44:11.600 --> 01:44:15.000 next week, Gary, Jeff. But they weren't registered to vote. 1487 01:44:15.039 --> 01:44:18.520 I could register them, which I did, and then they 1488 01:44:18.560 --> 01:44:23.079 can vote on November the fifth. So there's somebody around 1489 01:44:23.119 --> 01:44:24.880 listening right now, going, man, I didn't even know my 1490 01:44:24.960 --> 01:44:27.479 seventeen year old who's going to be eighteen by the 1491 01:44:27.520 --> 01:44:30.199 time they get to the election, could actually register to 1492 01:44:30.279 --> 01:44:33.640 vote and participate in this in this process. I love 1493 01:44:33.720 --> 01:44:37.640 people like Jim Neal, specifically in our county. I want 1494 01:44:37.680 --> 01:44:39.880 to make sure that we get a share that we 1495 01:44:39.920 --> 01:44:45.039 can trust. Jim Neil I like him. I like Melissa Powers. 1496 01:44:45.199 --> 01:44:49.039 It's very important. The only person out there. I really 1497 01:44:49.079 --> 01:44:53.439 trust her to take on criminals head on. And it 1498 01:44:53.479 --> 01:44:56.279 doesn't matter here whether you're a Democrat or you're a 1499 01:44:56.279 --> 01:45:00.880 Republican or like me and independent. I want my community safe. 1500 01:45:01.239 --> 01:45:04.279 I'm going to vote my girl's safety. I have a 1501 01:45:04.359 --> 01:45:08.000 sixteen year old daughter. I'm voting for safety, meaning if 1502 01:45:08.039 --> 01:45:10.960 she gets in trouble, I want a Melissa Powers in 1503 01:45:11.000 --> 01:45:13.199 the chair. That has nothing to do with what your 1504 01:45:13.239 --> 01:45:17.039 political power is, whether the political position is, whether you're 1505 01:45:17.039 --> 01:45:20.119 a Democrat and an independent or Republican. I'm letting you know 1506 01:45:20.399 --> 01:45:24.119 Melissa Powers is the best candidate there in the race. 1507 01:45:24.439 --> 01:45:29.479 Orlando Sonza I support him. He's running for Congress. He's 1508 01:45:29.800 --> 01:45:33.880 a west Point graduate, his wife's a west Point graduate. 1509 01:45:34.159 --> 01:45:38.079 This is a lawyer, a prosecutor, good guy, very smart. 1510 01:45:38.560 --> 01:45:42.319 Why wouldn't we elevate him to Congress to represent the 1511 01:45:42.359 --> 01:45:45.640 great state of Ohio. It doesn't matter whether you're a 1512 01:45:45.680 --> 01:45:48.760 Democrat or Republican. If you're a veteran out there writing, 1513 01:45:48.760 --> 01:45:50.640 you're thinking about who do I want to vote for? 1514 01:45:50.960 --> 01:45:54.279 If you don't do the research and know that Orlando 1515 01:45:54.399 --> 01:45:59.000 Sanza is a military veteran who went to West Point, 1516 01:45:59.079 --> 01:46:02.800 served his country. Now is a lawyer and accountant, all 1517 01:46:02.840 --> 01:46:06.159 of those things with a wonderful family man, with a 1518 01:46:06.159 --> 01:46:09.239 beautiful wife and beautiful children. You might not go in 1519 01:46:09.279 --> 01:46:12.159 and vote for him because you're a Democrat and he's not. 1520 01:46:12.279 --> 01:46:14.960 It doesn't matter. We're voting for the people. We want 1521 01:46:15.000 --> 01:46:17.640 to make sure that we get a strong government on 1522 01:46:17.720 --> 01:46:20.520 the At the other side of this election, which goes 1523 01:46:20.680 --> 01:46:24.039 beyond what your political party is and who the President 1524 01:46:24.079 --> 01:46:26.840 of the United States is, that you're voting for. Judge 1525 01:46:26.840 --> 01:46:30.039 Shanahan is out there. I really like her. Joe Dieters, 1526 01:46:30.079 --> 01:46:32.439 I really like him. I can go on and on 1527 01:46:32.560 --> 01:46:36.560 and on. Just listen to what Jim Keeper said, Vote 1528 01:46:36.600 --> 01:46:40.359 down the entire ticket, vote for every single race that's 1529 01:46:40.439 --> 01:46:43.560 on your ballot. That's a part of my spleensent that 1530 01:46:43.640 --> 01:46:46.720 you set me up so wonderful for Gary jeff As. 1531 01:46:46.800 --> 01:46:50.199 Today is ground zero, the last day to register to vote. 1532 01:46:50.680 --> 01:46:54.279 The Super Bowl starts tomorrow. And don't be a talker. 1533 01:46:54.520 --> 01:46:56.880 Don't just go to a bar with a T shirt 1534 01:46:56.960 --> 01:46:59.520 on saying this is who you support and you're not 1535 01:46:59.560 --> 01:47:01.960 a regis your voter, or you don't get out there 1536 01:47:01.960 --> 01:47:03.479 and vote. The last thing I'll say to you is 1537 01:47:03.560 --> 01:47:07.159 vote early. The game in this now has changed. Voting 1538 01:47:07.199 --> 01:47:10.640 is thirty days in Ohio. Vote early, bank your vote now. 1539 01:47:10.680 --> 01:47:13.520 The reason you do that is that candidates can tell 1540 01:47:13.560 --> 01:47:16.560 Gary Jeff whether you voted or not. And so if 1541 01:47:16.600 --> 01:47:18.800 you get out of the way, meaning you vote and 1542 01:47:18.840 --> 01:47:21.279 get out of the way, they can focus on those 1543 01:47:21.399 --> 01:47:25.159 high risk voters who aren't participating, so they can knock 1544 01:47:25.239 --> 01:47:28.039 on their door and say where are you are you going? Oh, 1545 01:47:28.079 --> 01:47:30.920 I'm a traditionalist. I'm only going to vote on election day, Okay, 1546 01:47:31.079 --> 01:47:32.680 but I want to make sure you show up on 1547 01:47:32.760 --> 01:47:35.720 November the fifth. I know where you are. I'm going 1548 01:47:35.800 --> 01:47:39.479 to vote early. I'm encouraging others to vote early because 1549 01:47:39.479 --> 01:47:42.520 the game has changed, and in order for your candidate 1550 01:47:42.560 --> 01:47:44.399 to win, we've got to make sure we get a 1551 01:47:44.479 --> 01:47:47.880 high voter turnout and that we are diligent. In my 1552 01:47:48.000 --> 01:47:49.560 opinion about voting early. 1553 01:47:49.800 --> 01:47:53.640 When you mentioned Chris about the voter who was going 1554 01:47:53.640 --> 01:47:56.479 to turn eighteen before election day and getting them registered 1555 01:47:56.520 --> 01:47:59.399 to vote, I remember I got to vote in the 1556 01:47:59.439 --> 01:48:03.479 first residential election in nineteen eighty where eighteen year olds 1557 01:48:03.520 --> 01:48:07.800 were allowed to vote, and I was so thrilled that 1558 01:48:07.840 --> 01:48:12.760 they were intrusting me with this piece of democracy, American democracy. 1559 01:48:13.199 --> 01:48:16.159 I couldn't wait to go and vote, and I have 1560 01:48:16.279 --> 01:48:21.680 voted in every election since then. I consider it not 1561 01:48:21.720 --> 01:48:25.840 only not only a privilege, but I considered it an 1562 01:48:25.960 --> 01:48:30.640 honor to let my voice be heard because you know, 1563 01:48:31.119 --> 01:48:33.000 and you made a good point about going to a 1564 01:48:33.039 --> 01:48:35.279 bar with a T shirt on for who you support, 1565 01:48:35.319 --> 01:48:39.039 but you're not registered to vote, and T shirts don't vote, 1566 01:48:39.079 --> 01:48:41.199 and T shirts aren't going to get your candidate over 1567 01:48:41.239 --> 01:48:47.039 the hump. But you can. And this is so important 1568 01:48:47.920 --> 01:48:50.920 because there were so many places around the world to 1569 01:48:51.000 --> 01:48:55.680 this day, Chris, where you don't have any voice, and 1570 01:48:55.800 --> 01:48:59.119 the people who are governing you you don't have any 1571 01:48:59.279 --> 01:49:03.359 choice in what you are you having to live with 1572 01:49:03.520 --> 01:49:06.880 and deal with. In America, you have that choice, You 1573 01:49:07.000 --> 01:49:10.680 have that voice, and to let that voice remain silent 1574 01:49:10.840 --> 01:49:14.760 is just a damn shame, I think, And so it 1575 01:49:14.840 --> 01:49:15.399 really is. 1576 01:49:15.800 --> 01:49:20.279 And look, Gary, Jeff. The purpose of government, in my opinion, 1577 01:49:20.319 --> 01:49:24.000 the number one purpose is safety of its people, period, 1578 01:49:24.279 --> 01:49:28.319 whether that's the military, whether that's the police, whether that's 1579 01:49:28.359 --> 01:49:31.520 the fire Department. Those are examples of that, whether that's 1580 01:49:31.800 --> 01:49:36.079 sanitation collection, that's a part of safety, meaning the government 1581 01:49:36.239 --> 01:49:41.000 is in the business of safety. Listen to the candidates 1582 01:49:41.239 --> 01:49:44.720 who are saying they're into safety and making sure that 1583 01:49:44.800 --> 01:49:49.079 you're safe. I mean, I'm not interested in the next program. 1584 01:49:49.359 --> 01:49:51.239 I want to be able to walk outside my door 1585 01:49:51.279 --> 01:49:54.359 and knocket shot. I want to make sure that China 1586 01:49:54.840 --> 01:49:58.479 isn't knocking on our door and dropping bombs or having 1587 01:49:58.520 --> 01:50:01.199 an experience like pearl Hart, which means that we have 1588 01:50:01.279 --> 01:50:05.319 to have a strong military. I don't want to face 1589 01:50:05.359 --> 01:50:08.319 our enemies with a broomstick. I want to face them 1590 01:50:08.359 --> 01:50:11.000 with a shotgun. And so the reality of it is 1591 01:50:11.159 --> 01:50:14.079 you have got to vote your safety. You also have 1592 01:50:14.159 --> 01:50:17.720 to vote your economics. I'm telling everybody just go to 1593 01:50:17.760 --> 01:50:20.640 your neighborhood grocery store. Look at what it costs to 1594 01:50:20.680 --> 01:50:23.359 buy a steak. Look at what it costs to buy chicken. 1595 01:50:23.640 --> 01:50:25.840 Look at what it costs to buy eggs, look at 1596 01:50:25.880 --> 01:50:30.439 what it costs to buy milk. Vote your economics, meaning 1597 01:50:30.600 --> 01:50:33.159 why would you do the same, Why would you go 1598 01:50:33.239 --> 01:50:36.079 in and vote in a way that's going to destroy 1599 01:50:36.159 --> 01:50:39.079 your own home. That doesn't make any sense to me. 1600 01:50:39.359 --> 01:50:41.880 And so what happens is what politicians try to do 1601 01:50:42.239 --> 01:50:45.600 is they try to distract you with shiny objects, make 1602 01:50:45.680 --> 01:50:49.159 you talk and discuss about things that really don't impact 1603 01:50:49.159 --> 01:50:52.439 your daily life. Talk to people in North Carolina right now, 1604 01:50:52.640 --> 01:50:55.239 Talk to people in Georgia right now, talk to people 1605 01:50:55.279 --> 01:50:58.159 in Florida right now, and ask yourself, what do you 1606 01:50:58.199 --> 01:51:01.600 think they care about right now? They care about their safety. 1607 01:51:02.239 --> 01:51:05.279 They care about their grandmothers and their sisters and their daughters, 1608 01:51:05.279 --> 01:51:07.680 and their churches that have been washed away, and a 1609 01:51:07.800 --> 01:51:11.079 government that cannot come and save them but can send 1610 01:51:11.159 --> 01:51:14.560 money to Ukraine. Now I'm not saying I don't care 1611 01:51:14.560 --> 01:51:18.199 about Ukraine. I'm saying I care about America. And if 1612 01:51:18.239 --> 01:51:21.359 my mother was stranded in the hills a dog on 1613 01:51:21.479 --> 01:51:25.439 North Carolina, I'd be saying, government, where are you? Stop 1614 01:51:25.479 --> 01:51:28.520 getting on Twitter? And FEMA director saying, oh, we're doing 1615 01:51:28.560 --> 01:51:30.960 a great job. When you talk to the churches and 1616 01:51:31.000 --> 01:51:32.760 you talk to the volunteers and they say, we don't 1617 01:51:32.800 --> 01:51:35.159 know where they are, we haven't seen them, they should 1618 01:51:35.159 --> 01:51:39.560 be leading the effort and organizing the rescues, not having 1619 01:51:39.600 --> 01:51:42.760 some guy with a private helicopter flying into the hills 1620 01:51:42.800 --> 01:51:47.000 and bringing out grandma who doesn't have oxygen. This is 1621 01:51:47.039 --> 01:51:50.359 the stuff that insenses me. And I'm listening to voters 1622 01:51:50.359 --> 01:51:53.079 out here who are focused on things that don't make 1623 01:51:53.199 --> 01:52:00.439 any damn sense. Vote your security, vote your economics, can unities, 1624 01:52:00.439 --> 01:52:02.880 and your children. I don't want my daughter to be 1625 01:52:03.039 --> 01:52:06.279 raped by anybody, but let me tell you, having somebody 1626 01:52:06.319 --> 01:52:09.319 in this country that shouldn't be here, that rapes her 1627 01:52:09.560 --> 01:52:13.279 and murders her, that has my undivided attention and Georgia 1628 01:52:13.399 --> 01:52:17.560 experience that so many of our states experience, that I'm 1629 01:52:17.640 --> 01:52:21.520 voting my daughter's safety. That's what I'm voting when I 1630 01:52:21.560 --> 01:52:23.159 go into this election, because I don't want to wake 1631 01:52:23.239 --> 01:52:24.359 up and be a hypocrite. 1632 01:52:24.520 --> 01:52:29.359 Precisely why I'm voting for the America First candidate. Uh great, 1633 01:52:29.439 --> 01:52:33.039 Christopher Smitherman, Thank you so much, as always. 1634 01:52:32.359 --> 01:52:35.520 Thank you, nice good night.

Think for yourself. 1640 01:52:51.800 --> 01:52:55.119 God bless and God bless this Flea event. All right, 1641 01:52:55.439 --> 01:52:59.279 it's seven fifty fifty five krs the talk station times. 1642 01:53:00.439 --> 01:53:04.760 Voting in Ohio starts tomorrow. It also begins in Dearborn County, 1643 01:53:04.800 --> 01:53:08.840 Indiana tomorrow, Tuesday, October eighth, today the last date to 1644 01:53:08.920 --> 01:53:12.520 registered to vote in the state of Ohio. So that 1645 01:53:12.640 --> 01:53:15.199 out of the way, Gary jeffn for Brian Thomas on 1646 01:53:15.239 --> 01:53:20.199 this Monday, October seventh, twenty twenty four and ushering in 1647 01:53:20.279 --> 01:53:25.079 a new hour, let's talk to Mark Mix. Mark, of course, 1648 01:53:25.359 --> 01:53:30.720 is the president of the National Right to Work Committee, 1649 01:53:31.439 --> 01:53:36.359 has a two point eight million members in their policy organization, 1650 01:53:36.760 --> 01:53:39.479 public policy organization. He also serves as president of the 1651 01:53:39.520 --> 01:53:43.359 National Right to Work Legal Defense Foundation. And when we 1652 01:53:43.439 --> 01:53:45.840 scheduled this, Good morning. 1653 01:53:45.560 --> 01:53:48.000 Mark, Good morning, Gary Jeff. 1654 01:53:48.119 --> 01:53:51.600 When we scheduled this, it was on the premise of 1655 01:53:51.760 --> 01:53:54.479 the dock workers going on strike on the East Coast 1656 01:53:54.560 --> 01:53:59.560 and Gulf Coast that has at least temporarily been resolved 1657 01:54:00.039 --> 01:54:04.720 since we first wanted to talk to you. But tell me, 1658 01:54:05.479 --> 01:54:07.760 tell me what you know about the situation where the 1659 01:54:07.800 --> 01:54:12.279 negotiations are and could this blow up at any time? 1660 01:54:13.960 --> 01:54:15.960 Well, it's certainly Kenn, Gary Jeff, and I'm reminded of 1661 01:54:16.000 --> 01:54:19.960 that great line from Animal House by John Belushi, it's 1662 01:54:20.000 --> 01:54:22.039 not over until we say it's over. 1663 01:54:22.399 --> 01:54:23.359 And was it. 1664 01:54:23.239 --> 01:54:25.640 Over when the Germans bomb for Harvard? I think that's 1665 01:54:25.640 --> 01:54:30.039 how the dialogue went, or something like that. Yeah, But anyway, 1666 01:54:30.199 --> 01:54:33.319 you know, this is basically a political issue now, Gary Jeff, 1667 01:54:33.319 --> 01:54:37.199 as you might imagine, the politics of the supply chain 1668 01:54:37.239 --> 01:54:39.640 shutting down the East Coast was way too much for 1669 01:54:39.680 --> 01:54:42.760 the Biden Harris Harris Biden administration to take, and so 1670 01:54:43.079 --> 01:54:45.159 I think there probably was a finger on the scale 1671 01:54:45.159 --> 01:54:47.600 to get them to agree to basically put it aside, 1672 01:54:47.640 --> 01:54:50.319 put it on after the election. And I mean, obviously, 1673 01:54:50.399 --> 01:54:52.119 the one thing the union's got for doing that was 1674 01:54:52.119 --> 01:54:55.760 a sixty two percent increase in their wages that was 1675 01:54:55.840 --> 01:54:58.800 above what the United States Maritime Alliance had offered to 1676 01:54:58.920 --> 01:55:01.439 you know, their last negotiation with a fifty percent pay increase, 1677 01:55:01.479 --> 01:55:05.960 a triple the employee retirement contributions, strengthen the healthcare options, 1678 01:55:05.960 --> 01:55:09.479 and maintain the current language about automation. But this is 1679 01:55:09.520 --> 01:55:11.760 not over, Gary Jeff, as you said, you know it was. 1680 01:55:11.880 --> 01:55:14.920 I think you said inside my quotation marks over. It's 1681 01:55:14.960 --> 01:55:16.920 not over until the union says it's over. 1682 01:55:17.119 --> 01:55:22.720 Right, exactly, and now there was there was a possibility 1683 01:55:22.720 --> 01:55:27.039 of Biden invoking the Taft Hartley Act to end this. 1684 01:55:28.279 --> 01:55:32.199 Should he have or is that? Is that overreached by 1685 01:55:32.199 --> 01:55:32.880 the federal government? 1686 01:55:32.960 --> 01:55:36.000 Mark Well, I mean, it's not an overreach. It's not 1687 01:55:36.079 --> 01:55:39.039 something that's mandatory. The Taft Hartly Act allows the President 1688 01:55:39.039 --> 01:55:41.279 of the United States to basically say there's going to 1689 01:55:41.319 --> 01:55:43.920 be an eighty day cooling off period in any strike 1690 01:55:44.000 --> 01:55:47.239 that affects national security, the economic safety of the country. 1691 01:55:47.479 --> 01:55:48.960 Those are the kind of the criteria. I know that 1692 01:55:49.000 --> 01:55:52.800 sounds pretty vague and pretty general, but there's no requirement. 1693 01:55:52.920 --> 01:55:56.920 Unlike the Railroad Labor Act, which has specific rules about 1694 01:55:56.920 --> 01:55:59.720 how a strike occurs in the railway or airline industry, 1695 01:56:00.000 --> 01:56:03.239 there was no mandatory requirement for the president say hey, 1696 01:56:03.239 --> 01:56:05.560 we need a cooling off period. It was purely political. 1697 01:56:05.600 --> 01:56:07.560 They could have done it, but I think in this case, 1698 01:56:07.600 --> 01:56:11.039 after the railroad strike, when the Biden administration crammed down 1699 01:56:11.079 --> 01:56:14.359 a contract on the railway unions, there was real anger 1700 01:56:14.399 --> 01:56:17.199 by the union officials there, and I don't think Harris 1701 01:56:17.199 --> 01:56:19.000 were well, I don't know what Biden wanted, but I 1702 01:56:19.000 --> 01:56:21.600 don't think Harris wanted that. As we head into what 1703 01:56:21.720 --> 01:56:23.880 four weeks to go to the election, so he didn't 1704 01:56:23.920 --> 01:56:27.039 have to do it. Basically, what he's done to Facto 1705 01:56:27.119 --> 01:56:30.000 by getting this agreement is he pushed it out. And 1706 01:56:30.279 --> 01:56:32.439 you know what, Harold Daggett, the president of the International 1707 01:56:32.520 --> 01:56:35.399 Longshoremans Association, which controls the porch from May all the 1708 01:56:35.439 --> 01:56:37.800 way around to Houston, what he said is, yeah, go 1709 01:56:37.840 --> 01:56:40.000 ahead and vote tap Hartley. You think my men will 1710 01:56:40.039 --> 01:56:42.640 go back on the pier and they'll make what eight 1711 01:56:42.720 --> 01:56:44.880 moves an hour as opposed to thirty or thirty five 1712 01:56:44.920 --> 01:56:46.880 moves an hour? He said, the employers will still have 1713 01:56:46.920 --> 01:56:49.560 to pass, but we won't do any work. So that's 1714 01:56:49.640 --> 01:56:52.239 his response to the Taft Harley implementation. 1715 01:56:53.239 --> 01:56:58.000 And what's some background on this? On this guy was 1716 01:56:58.000 --> 01:56:58.680 a dagget you. 1717 01:56:58.680 --> 01:57:00.840 Said, Harold Gaggett. 1718 01:57:00.960 --> 01:57:05.439 Yeah. He is not the most savory of characters, is he. 1719 01:57:05.520 --> 01:57:07.560 Mark Well, he's. 1720 01:57:07.359 --> 01:57:10.920 Been investigated by federal prosecutors for being involved with organized crime, 1721 01:57:11.039 --> 01:57:14.199 and several of his associates at the International Longshoreman's Association 1722 01:57:14.279 --> 01:57:18.560 have been convicted of various operations with organized crime and 1723 01:57:18.600 --> 01:57:21.760 gambling and other things. 1724 01:57:19.920 --> 01:57:21.359 That that are. 1725 01:57:21.399 --> 01:57:23.079 I mean, you just do this stuff on the port, 1726 01:57:23.119 --> 01:57:25.239 Gary Jack you. You know, there's a there's a poker room 1727 01:57:25.279 --> 01:57:27.119 there in a gambling room and a booky room. I 1728 01:57:27.159 --> 01:57:29.880 suspect I don't know these things. But yeah, he's been 1729 01:57:29.920 --> 01:57:31.640 the president of the union for a long time. And 1730 01:57:31.720 --> 01:57:33.920 I think another part of this whole settlement, Gary Jeff, 1731 01:57:34.000 --> 01:57:36.640 was the fact that he became a central focal port 1732 01:57:36.960 --> 01:57:40.640 part of the debate over the labor dispute. I mean, 1733 01:57:40.680 --> 01:57:43.279 this guy's making nine hundred thousand dollars a year living 1734 01:57:43.319 --> 01:57:48.000 in a seven thousand plus square foot home with Beley convertible. Yeah, 1735 01:57:48.199 --> 01:57:51.520 Bentley convertible in a five car garage. Now, most of 1736 01:57:51.119 --> 01:57:53.159 the common folk out to be like. 1737 01:57:53.079 --> 01:57:53.439 You and me. 1738 01:57:53.760 --> 01:57:56.600 You know, we enjoy our homes and are in your 1739 01:57:56.640 --> 01:57:58.359 case here, I think your dog you spoke about a 1740 01:57:58.359 --> 01:58:01.359 little bit earlier, But I don't know. Bentley convertible sounds 1741 01:58:01.359 --> 01:58:05.000 pretty nice, and that's not the common man's mode of transportation. 1742 01:58:05.239 --> 01:58:05.960 It's in my. 1743 01:58:06.000 --> 01:58:09.680 View, I mean, all unions are not created equal, and 1744 01:58:09.760 --> 01:58:11.800 I think you'd be the first to admit that mark. 1745 01:58:13.119 --> 01:58:18.039 But it just seems like, I mean, and that knowing 1746 01:58:18.199 --> 01:58:20.560 his nine hundred thousand dollars salary and all the things 1747 01:58:20.640 --> 01:58:25.920 you just mentioned, made me reminisce back to the lovely 1748 01:58:26.039 --> 01:58:29.359 days of Yasser Arafat. And here's where the analogy is 1749 01:58:29.399 --> 01:58:32.800 apt because Yasser Arafat, who was chairman of the Palestine 1750 01:58:32.880 --> 01:58:39.880 Liberation Organization for years before he died, always claimed that 1751 01:58:39.720 --> 01:58:44.520 the poor oppressed Palestinians he needed to help them. When 1752 01:58:44.520 --> 01:58:47.399 he died, they found nine billion dollars in a secret 1753 01:58:47.439 --> 01:58:50.920 bank account in Switzerland and the poor Palestinians were still starving. 1754 01:58:51.119 --> 01:58:54.840 So I mean, oh my gosh, daggot sounds just like 1755 01:58:55.159 --> 01:59:00.039 Yasser Arafat to me in that respect. What is the 1756 01:59:00.720 --> 01:59:03.800 National Right to Work Legal Foundation working on these days? 1757 01:59:03.800 --> 01:59:07.199 Mark, Yeah, Well, we're interested in this because I think 1758 01:59:07.199 --> 01:59:09.399 one of the elements of the contract area Jeff, is 1759 01:59:09.439 --> 01:59:11.439 going to be a drive to get the United States 1760 01:59:11.479 --> 01:59:14.279 Maritime Association, which is the forty kind of shipping members. 1761 01:59:14.279 --> 01:59:17.439 These are people from Europe and the Far East and 1762 01:59:17.520 --> 01:59:20.239 Asia in those places that are negotiating with the unions 1763 01:59:20.279 --> 01:59:22.439 over the use of the ports in the United States 1764 01:59:22.439 --> 01:59:24.840 of America. So these ports, as I mentioned, from Maine 1765 01:59:24.840 --> 01:59:27.800 to Houston. We're worried that one of the conditions that 1766 01:59:27.800 --> 01:59:29.800 they're going to negotiate is that there can be no 1767 01:59:29.800 --> 01:59:33.000 non union employees on the docks anywhere on the East 1768 01:59:33.039 --> 01:59:36.359 coast right now. South Carolina, North Carolina, and Georgia all 1769 01:59:36.359 --> 01:59:39.199 have what's called a hybrid labor model, which allows non 1770 01:59:39.319 --> 01:59:42.000 union employees to work side by side with union employees. 1771 01:59:42.319 --> 01:59:43.760 And so I think one of the things they're going 1772 01:59:43.800 --> 01:59:46.560 to demand is that those non union employees be fired 1773 01:59:46.960 --> 01:59:50.800 and or have to take a demotion and time served 1774 01:59:50.800 --> 01:59:53.520 and end up in the hiring hall with zero experience. 1775 01:59:53.520 --> 01:59:55.600 And we're worried about that. We put out a notice 1776 01:59:55.640 --> 01:59:58.119 to port workers around the country that could they have 1777 01:59:58.279 --> 02:00:00.159 rights and they can talk to us about their rights. 1778 02:00:00.439 --> 02:00:02.359 But that's a pretty important part of all of this 1779 02:00:02.520 --> 02:00:05.119 as it relates to the ports. On other issues we're 1780 02:00:05.159 --> 02:00:07.920 helping and being October seventh, I will tell you we've 1781 02:00:07.920 --> 02:00:10.039 got a lot of work on behalf of Jewish graduate 1782 02:00:10.079 --> 02:00:13.279 students around the country at various universities like the Massachusetts 1783 02:00:13.279 --> 02:00:16.199 Institute of Technology, who are Gary Jeff who are forced 1784 02:00:16.199 --> 02:00:19.960 to associate with unions that are fomenting this Palestinian hamas 1785 02:00:20.000 --> 02:00:23.680 has unrest on the campuses. They're forced to pay dues 1786 02:00:23.760 --> 02:00:25.840 or fees to that union. They're forced to associate with 1787 02:00:25.840 --> 02:00:28.199 that union. That's literally calling for the end of the 1788 02:00:28.239 --> 02:00:32.680 Israel state and the boycott, divest, sanctioned agenda, all of that. 1789 02:00:33.000 --> 02:00:36.279 So we're working with them, and then were working with 1790 02:00:36.319 --> 02:00:38.840 employees all across the country to exercise their rights, not 1791 02:00:38.880 --> 02:00:40.960 to get out of unions or beat up on unions 1792 02:00:40.960 --> 02:00:44.399 at all, but to exercise basic individual employee rights in 1793 02:00:44.439 --> 02:00:46.840 the workplace. And there's a lot of work to do, 1794 02:00:47.239 --> 02:00:49.560 fortunately or unfortunately, I guess, Gary Jeff. 1795 02:00:49.680 --> 02:00:54.600 What do you think about the non endorsement of Kamala 1796 02:00:54.680 --> 02:01:00.000 Harris from the Teamsters and also the International Brotherhood of Firefighters. 1797 02:01:01.239 --> 02:01:03.560 Yeah, well, that's a very interesting story and one that 1798 02:01:03.600 --> 02:01:06.359 it comes with really a very simple solution. That is that, 1799 02:01:06.680 --> 02:01:09.239 unfortunately for the Teamsters, they pulled their membership on who 1800 02:01:09.279 --> 02:01:11.880 they supported for president, and I think in two polls 1801 02:01:12.119 --> 02:01:14.279 they've almost sixty percent of the teams were said they 1802 02:01:14.399 --> 02:01:17.560 supported Donald Trump. And for Sean O'Brien, the president of 1803 02:01:17.560 --> 02:01:18.960 the Teams for the last year and a half or 1804 02:01:18.960 --> 02:01:21.359 two years, to come out and say, yeah, our wholehearted 1805 02:01:21.399 --> 02:01:25.039 support goes to Kamala Harris. He's a politician. To Gary Jeff, 1806 02:01:25.079 --> 02:01:27.079 he has to run for office. And I think what 1807 02:01:27.159 --> 02:01:30.239 he did, as he said look, if we just endorse 1808 02:01:30.319 --> 02:01:33.000 no one will probably not cause as much trouble if 1809 02:01:33.039 --> 02:01:35.159 we endorse Trump when it came to the rest of 1810 02:01:35.199 --> 02:01:37.680 the union, the labor union movement, because those two I 1811 02:01:37.680 --> 02:01:39.920 think both those unions, the firefighter or the police unions, 1812 02:01:39.960 --> 02:01:43.359 excuse me, and the firefighters union and the Teamsters, they 1813 02:01:43.439 --> 02:01:46.399 understand if their membership is supportive of Canada. That the 1814 02:01:46.520 --> 02:01:49.680 union officials. And there's the point. There's the rugguary, Jeff. 1815 02:01:49.720 --> 02:01:53.000 That disconnect between union officials and rank and file workers 1816 02:01:53.039 --> 02:01:55.479 is growing wider and wider all the time because of 1817 02:01:55.520 --> 02:01:59.039 the radical positions that many union officials are taking on 1818 02:01:59.079 --> 02:02:01.560 political issues and political candidates. 1819 02:02:01.840 --> 02:02:05.079 Have you got about five more minutes, Mark, I do? 1820 02:02:05.640 --> 02:02:08.039 All right, fantastic, take a quick break and come back 1821 02:02:08.039 --> 02:02:10.279 with Mark mix the president of the National Right to 1822 02:02:10.319 --> 02:02:14.159 Work Committee and also president of the National Right to 1823 02:02:14.159 --> 02:02:18.279 Work Legal Defense Foundation, on the doc workers strike or 1824 02:02:18.319 --> 02:02:23.119 not strike and everything else revolving your right to work 1825 02:02:23.159 --> 02:02:27.079 in America. It's eight fifteen fifty five krs the talk station. 1826 02:02:27.279 --> 02:02:29.279 There are two types of pain in the world. 1827 02:02:29.199 --> 02:02:33.520 Chuster, it's eight nineteen or so on this Monday, October seventh, 1828 02:02:34.680 --> 02:02:38.560 twenty twenty four. I'm Gary Jenny in for Brian Thomas 1829 02:02:38.600 --> 02:02:42.640 on fifty five KRC, the talk station, and we're talking 1830 02:02:42.680 --> 02:02:45.439 to Mark Mix for the next few minutes again for 1831 02:02:45.560 --> 02:02:48.079 the National Right to Work Committee and the National Right 1832 02:02:48.119 --> 02:02:52.920 to Work Legal Defense Foundation. Mark, tell me a little 1833 02:02:52.960 --> 02:02:55.640 bit about what you do, because I mentioned in the 1834 02:02:55.680 --> 02:02:58.159 previous segment and you agreed with me. All unions are 1835 02:02:58.159 --> 02:03:05.319 not created equal. Old unions are evil or compulsory. But 1836 02:03:06.039 --> 02:03:09.760 what exactly are you working on these days? 1837 02:03:11.159 --> 02:03:14.199 Yeah, Jary j that's important. I mean, the ability to 1838 02:03:14.279 --> 02:03:17.159 exercise your rights in the American workplace is not anti 1839 02:03:17.279 --> 02:03:19.600 union or pro union. We believe that every worker should 1840 02:03:19.600 --> 02:03:21.600 have the right to join a union. They choose to 1841 02:03:21.680 --> 02:03:26.039 do so and choose that voluntarily. But unfortunately, for from 1842 02:03:26.079 --> 02:03:28.880 federal labor law going back to the nineteen thirties, union 1843 02:03:28.920 --> 02:03:32.399 officials have a unique position in between employers and workers 1844 02:03:32.680 --> 02:03:35.439 in that they can force workers that never ask for, 1845 02:03:35.600 --> 02:03:38.119 never wanted, never vote for a union to basically give 1846 02:03:38.199 --> 02:03:40.920 up their rights to association and ced it to a 1847 02:03:40.960 --> 02:03:43.680 private organization. And then, in the states that don't have 1848 02:03:43.760 --> 02:03:46.199 right to work laws twenty six states do have, twenty 1849 02:03:46.199 --> 02:03:48.880 four don't, you can be forced to pay as a 1850 02:03:48.920 --> 02:03:51.319 condition of employment in order to get or keep a job. 1851 02:03:51.720 --> 02:03:53.720 So our job at the National Right to Work Committee 1852 02:03:53.800 --> 02:03:56.159 from a legislative standpoint is to help promote right to 1853 02:03:56.159 --> 02:03:58.159 work laws and states, protect the right to work laws 1854 02:03:58.159 --> 02:04:00.439 that around the books, and basically keep track of the 1855 02:04:00.520 --> 02:04:03.479 legislation at the state level that gives union officials more 1856 02:04:03.520 --> 02:04:06.319 power over workers. So that's a really important part of 1857 02:04:06.319 --> 02:04:09.199 the legislative side. On the litigation side, we have nineteen 1858 02:04:09.239 --> 02:04:13.680 staff attorneys who represent employees for free, helping them exercise 1859 02:04:13.800 --> 02:04:16.039 their rights in the workplace when it comes to the 1860 02:04:16.079 --> 02:04:18.800 compulsion and the force that exists in federal law, and 1861 02:04:18.920 --> 02:04:21.960 also about issues like these Jewish students at MIT and 1862 02:04:22.079 --> 02:04:25.359 Dartmouth and the University of Chicago and New York University 1863 02:04:25.399 --> 02:04:27.640 and the City University of New York who are forced 1864 02:04:27.680 --> 02:04:30.319 to associate with the union that's really contrary to who 1865 02:04:30.359 --> 02:04:34.119 they are, their religious beliefs, their ideological beliefs, their philosophical beliefs. 1866 02:04:34.319 --> 02:04:38.199 So helping employees navigate that labor policy that is almost 1867 02:04:38.239 --> 02:04:40.319 what we're getting close to one hundred years old now 1868 02:04:41.000 --> 02:04:42.640 in a different time, in a different place in the 1869 02:04:42.720 --> 02:04:45.239 United States. We're trying to help employees understand their rights 1870 02:04:45.439 --> 02:04:47.399 and protect their rights in the workplace. And those rights 1871 02:04:47.399 --> 02:04:50.760 do include under federal law the ability to join together 1872 02:04:50.840 --> 02:04:54.079 collectively to amplify their voice in the workplace. And we're 1873 02:04:54.119 --> 02:04:56.520 not trying to unsettle that at all. But what we're 1874 02:04:56.520 --> 02:04:59.159 trying to do is eliminate the compulsion and the force 1875 02:04:59.239 --> 02:05:01.880 that exists in federal law and in state laws in 1876 02:05:01.920 --> 02:05:02.479 some cases. 1877 02:05:02.720 --> 02:05:07.439 Yeah, it's so often misstated that if you have if 1878 02:05:07.439 --> 02:05:09.600 you're a right to work person, that you're anti union, 1879 02:05:09.640 --> 02:05:14.359 and is simply not the case. But it's made just 1880 02:05:14.479 --> 02:05:17.720 to it's more of a strong arm union tactic. And 1881 02:05:17.840 --> 02:05:21.520 it is incomprehensible to me that a student at MIT 1882 02:05:22.359 --> 02:05:26.000 would be forced to join a union basically that is 1883 02:05:26.039 --> 02:05:30.119 supporting people that thinks that that Jewish student should be dead. 1884 02:05:30.760 --> 02:05:34.439 It just I can't believe it in America, how that's 1885 02:05:34.439 --> 02:05:40.239 could happen. I know that, I know you've worked on 1886 02:05:40.319 --> 02:05:44.159 many cases in Ohio with your organization and others. We've 1887 02:05:44.560 --> 02:05:48.760 discussed that in the past. And didn't Joe Biden come 1888 02:05:48.800 --> 02:05:52.000 out and say that he was in favor of ending 1889 02:05:52.079 --> 02:05:54.600 all these right to work laws in those twenty six 1890 02:05:54.680 --> 02:05:56.279 states you mentioned, isn't that true? 1891 02:05:57.319 --> 02:05:57.560 Yeah? 1892 02:05:57.600 --> 02:05:59.920 He absolutely did, and so did Kamala Harris. You know, 1893 02:06:00.079 --> 02:06:02.520 Joe Biden said there he said, and I'm trying to 1894 02:06:02.560 --> 02:06:04.359 quote here Gary Jef because I can't deal without a 1895 02:06:04.399 --> 02:06:06.760 small cause she's he said, let me be clear, there 1896 02:06:06.840 --> 02:06:09.920 should be no right to work anywhere in America. 1897 02:06:10.159 --> 02:06:10.680 Not a joke. 1898 02:06:11.279 --> 02:06:11.800 Not a joke. 1899 02:06:12.359 --> 02:06:13.680 So that was his framing. 1900 02:06:13.840 --> 02:06:15.760 I don't know whether he knew what he was talking 1901 02:06:15.760 --> 02:06:17.960 about or not at the time. And Kamala Harris says, look, 1902 02:06:18.000 --> 02:06:20.119 we need to stop, we need to debates, the overturn 1903 02:06:20.159 --> 02:06:20.720 all the right to work. 1904 02:06:20.760 --> 02:06:21.479 Well was in the country. 1905 02:06:21.479 --> 02:06:22.840 That's her position on the right to work. 1906 02:06:22.920 --> 02:06:26.840 So they believe that the secret to the American enterprise 1907 02:06:26.920 --> 02:06:29.760 and the American experiment and self government is to force 1908 02:06:29.840 --> 02:06:32.479 people into unions, force them to pay union dues, and 1909 02:06:32.520 --> 02:06:36.199 then everything will be just honky dory. So we disagree. 1910 02:06:36.680 --> 02:06:38.600 I think the American people disagree. We did a poll 1911 02:06:39.159 --> 02:06:41.800 with Scott rasp Musen, a very well respected polster with 1912 02:06:41.880 --> 02:06:44.600 the Rescumusion media group that showed that eighty two percent 1913 02:06:44.640 --> 02:06:46.840 of all Americans believe it's wrong to force workers to 1914 02:06:46.880 --> 02:06:49.000 pay union dues or fees to get to keep a job. 1915 02:06:49.239 --> 02:06:52.319 Union households people with union union members in their households, 1916 02:06:52.319 --> 02:06:54.840 seventy nine percent agree with us that no one should 1917 02:06:54.840 --> 02:06:56.720 be forced and that there's a reason for that, Gary 1918 02:06:56.800 --> 02:06:59.560 jef it's people that join unions voluntarily that want to 1919 02:06:59.560 --> 02:07:02.680 be in the un they're inherently stronger members of the union. 1920 02:07:02.720 --> 02:07:04.920 They love what the union does for them, and unions 1921 02:07:05.000 --> 02:07:07.479 have done good things for workers. The one thing they 1922 02:07:07.479 --> 02:07:10.560 won't do is good for workers is continue to allow 1923 02:07:10.880 --> 02:07:13.760 union officials and continue to demand that every worker pay 1924 02:07:13.800 --> 02:07:16.159 them dues in order to work in America. It doesn't 1925 02:07:16.159 --> 02:07:18.199 make any sense. I mean, when you compel people and 1926 02:07:18.239 --> 02:07:21.399 force people to do something, they're not as enthusiastic as 1927 02:07:21.439 --> 02:07:23.520 those that would do it voluntarily. And that's a message 1928 02:07:23.560 --> 02:07:25.880 for labor union officials. If they want to grow their ranks, 1929 02:07:26.039 --> 02:07:28.439 go out and represent the workers that want your representation. 1930 02:07:28.720 --> 02:07:31.439 Help them focus on the shop floor instead of politics, 1931 02:07:31.600 --> 02:07:33.119 and you will be just fine. 1932 02:07:33.399 --> 02:07:36.000 A lot of our listeners think that the federal government 1933 02:07:36.079 --> 02:07:39.479 is coercive. You've got to have somewhere to turn where 1934 02:07:39.479 --> 02:07:44.159 you're not being forced to do something and enjoy your 1935 02:07:44.199 --> 02:07:47.239 life liberty and pursuit of happiness. And I think you 1936 02:07:47.279 --> 02:07:50.159 guys do great work and I always glad to have 1937 02:07:50.239 --> 02:07:54.119 you on any show that I'm doing. Any last word 1938 02:07:54.319 --> 02:07:57.039 for anybody here in the last minute or so, Mark Mix. 1939 02:07:57.760 --> 02:08:00.640 Well, i'll reemphasize what you talked about it in the 1940 02:08:00.680 --> 02:08:03.039 segment before mine is people need to go vote. This 1941 02:08:03.119 --> 02:08:05.319 is a grand experiment in self government. If we don't 1942 02:08:05.520 --> 02:08:07.920 exercise that right, we get what we deserve. And you 1943 02:08:07.960 --> 02:08:10.399 know we complain about government, just look in the mirror 1944 02:08:10.439 --> 02:08:13.119 because it's we the people. We're the ones that actually 1945 02:08:13.159 --> 02:08:15.800 make these decisions. And so as we close out here, 1946 02:08:15.840 --> 02:08:18.119 Gary Jeff, and I assure you will remind people more 1947 02:08:18.359 --> 02:08:20.880 as the site show goes on. But they've got to 1948 02:08:20.920 --> 02:08:22.800 get out and vote. They've got to cast their vote, 1949 02:08:22.800 --> 02:08:25.680 they've got to let their views be known, obviously by 1950 02:08:25.720 --> 02:08:28.880 secret ballot. But and to your previous guest, I mean 1951 02:08:29.239 --> 02:08:32.760 this election will be decided by maybe tens of thousands 1952 02:08:32.800 --> 02:08:35.960 of people across the entire country, right across the entire country, 1953 02:08:36.000 --> 02:08:38.199 Gary Jeff. So that's what I encourage people to do. 1954 02:08:38.800 --> 02:08:42.119 Go vote, make sure your voice is part of what 1955 02:08:42.159 --> 02:08:43.840 this will look what our government will look. 1956 02:08:43.720 --> 02:08:44.479 Like going forward. 1957 02:08:44.680 --> 02:08:47.359 All right, Mark Mix from the National Right to Work Committee, 1958 02:08:47.359 --> 02:08:49.880 thank you so much for your time as always, my friend, 1959 02:08:49.880 --> 02:08:51.880 and with that will break. It's eight twenty five at 1960 02:08:51.880 --> 02:08:55.239 fifty five KRC, the talk station. The Simply Money Minute 1961 02:08:55.279 --> 02:08:57.520 is sponsored by Emory Federal Credit Union. 1962 02:08:57.800 --> 02:09:01.359 This is this Simply Money Minute with Amy Wagner from all. 1963 02:09:01.279 --> 02:09:05.399 Rations to Chuck Ingram just found under after this weekend. 1964 02:09:05.439 --> 02:09:08.520 He's a grandfather for the third time, and this time 1965 02:09:08.520 --> 02:09:13.760 it's a boy. Congrats Chuck, Gary Jeff, and for Brian Thomas. 1966 02:09:13.760 --> 02:09:16.359 On this Monday, October seventh, and coming up on eight 1967 02:09:16.439 --> 02:09:20.680 twenty nine, Our next guest is the deputy executive director 1968 02:09:20.680 --> 02:09:24.119 of the Institute for Legislative Action. We'll find out what 1969 02:09:24.159 --> 02:09:28.399 that is and why she's here right now. Jennifer Breeman, 1970 02:09:28.479 --> 02:09:30.000 Good morning, and welcome to the show. 1971 02:09:31.159 --> 02:09:33.359 Good morning, Gary Jeff, thanks for having me on this morning. 1972 02:09:33.479 --> 02:09:35.840 Well, thanks for agreeing to be on. It's great to 1973 02:09:35.920 --> 02:09:42.800 have you. The Institute for Legislative Action is supporting one 1974 02:09:42.880 --> 02:09:45.840 Berning Marino for the US Senate seat currently held by 1975 02:09:45.880 --> 02:09:49.560 Shared Brown, and I'd like for you to explain why. 1976 02:09:51.239 --> 02:09:55.000 Well, you know, o Himans have a long of respect 1977 02:09:55.159 --> 02:10:00.159 in valuing our Second Amendment freedom that continues today, but 1978 02:10:00.319 --> 02:10:02.640 Shared Brown is out of step with the citizens of 1979 02:10:02.680 --> 02:10:05.840 Ohio when it comes to gun rights. He's been voting 1980 02:10:05.840 --> 02:10:08.720 for extreme gun control measures for over three decades in Washington, 1981 02:10:09.279 --> 02:10:13.199 and now we have a great opportunity while binding gun 1982 02:10:13.239 --> 02:10:16.159 owners in Ohio have a great opportunity to fire shared 1983 02:10:16.159 --> 02:10:19.840 Brown this election and ENTERI endorse Bernie Marino would be 1984 02:10:19.840 --> 02:10:22.399 a champion of the Second Amendment and our right to 1985 02:10:22.399 --> 02:10:24.000 self defense in the US Senate. 1986 02:10:24.760 --> 02:10:30.479 Right what kind of things, as Sharon Brown suggested, in 1987 02:10:30.560 --> 02:10:35.439 the way of gun control, that you find in definite 1988 02:10:35.479 --> 02:10:39.039 conflict with the Second Amendment, which says for anybody that 1989 02:10:39.159 --> 02:10:44.359 doesn't know, and many people who are anti gun rights 1990 02:10:44.399 --> 02:10:49.520 in this country, politicians wise anyway, say that there are limits. 1991 02:10:50.039 --> 02:10:52.680 I don't see any limits in the Constitution to the 1992 02:10:52.720 --> 02:10:56.119 Second Amendment of the Bill of Rights. It says the 1993 02:10:56.239 --> 02:10:59.920 right to own and bear firearms shall not be infringed upon. 1994 02:11:00.239 --> 02:11:04.359 And I think that anything that comes close to gun 1995 02:11:04.399 --> 02:11:06.159 control is an infringement, is it not. 1996 02:11:08.119 --> 02:11:10.560 I couldn't agree with you more. And you know in Washington, 1997 02:11:11.039 --> 02:11:15.720 Senator Brown he is consistently voted with gun control extremists 1998 02:11:15.760 --> 02:11:19.680 like Chuck Schumer and Nancy Pelosi to ban lawfully own 1999 02:11:19.720 --> 02:11:24.079 firearms magazines. He has voted to fund red flag confiscation 2000 02:11:24.199 --> 02:11:28.079 laws and opposed right to carry reciprocity. And you know, 2001 02:11:28.119 --> 02:11:30.920 when it comes to judges and confirming of judicial nominees, 2002 02:11:31.880 --> 02:11:35.119 Senator Brown consistently backs the liberal judges that don't even 2003 02:11:35.239 --> 02:11:37.479 value the Second Amendment as an individual right. 2004 02:11:38.359 --> 02:11:41.520 Well, it's kind of odd that the same people who 2005 02:11:41.800 --> 02:11:47.840 are claiming that Donald Trump is a threat to the Constitution, 2006 02:11:48.199 --> 02:11:50.840 the constitutionality of the United States, the threat to the 2007 02:11:51.159 --> 02:11:57.600 oath he took to defend the Constitution, are seemingly wobbly 2008 02:11:57.680 --> 02:12:01.439 need when it comes to both the First and Second Amendment. 2009 02:12:01.920 --> 02:12:03.840 And that's the other thing that a lot of people 2010 02:12:03.880 --> 02:12:09.199 don't particularly understand, Jennifer Breeman, is that the Second Amendment 2011 02:12:09.840 --> 02:12:12.600 is the reason that we still have a first amendment 2012 02:12:12.680 --> 02:12:15.239 in this country, the right to freedom of speech. But 2013 02:12:15.680 --> 02:12:19.520 Tim Wall's, a current vice presidential candidate on the Democrat side, 2014 02:12:20.640 --> 02:12:24.640 you know, says there's limits to freedom of speech in 2015 02:12:24.680 --> 02:12:28.920 this country, freedom of thought, much less your right to 2016 02:12:28.920 --> 02:12:33.279 own in bear firearms, even though he's a gun owner himself, 2017 02:12:34.199 --> 02:12:36.439 you know, and cast as in every man. But back 2018 02:12:36.520 --> 02:12:41.880 to the Ohio race, what has Bernie Marino said specifically 2019 02:12:42.359 --> 02:12:47.199 that would differ and is it just as plain and 2020 02:12:47.279 --> 02:12:49.800 simple as what we're talking about and the right to 2021 02:12:49.800 --> 02:12:52.359 own in bear firearms as an American citizen, or is 2022 02:12:52.399 --> 02:12:58.840 there even a greater difference or distance between them. 2023 02:12:59.000 --> 02:13:02.720 Yeah, Bernie Marino has entery end has the full endorsement 2024 02:13:02.800 --> 02:13:06.079 of the National Rifle Association. He has pledged his support 2025 02:13:06.560 --> 02:13:09.600 to confirm progun judges to the court if elected to 2026 02:13:09.640 --> 02:13:13.319 the US Senate. He has expressed his supportive right to 2027 02:13:13.359 --> 02:13:17.840 carry and right to carry reciprocity legislation. He opposes government 2028 02:13:17.880 --> 02:13:20.279 bands and confiscation. You know, when he takes an oath 2029 02:13:20.680 --> 02:13:23.359 hopefully when elected to the US Senate, you'll pull the constitution. 2030 02:13:23.960 --> 02:13:26.159 He will do just that when he gets there. 2031 02:13:26.600 --> 02:13:27.720 He has our full backing. 2032 02:13:28.680 --> 02:13:30.319 I know, I know, we'll probably get to this in 2033 02:13:30.319 --> 02:13:34.319 a minute, but you know, our our pack is fully 2034 02:13:34.359 --> 02:13:38.880 behind him and has expressed that through our huge ad buy. 2035 02:13:39.760 --> 02:13:41.680 Last week we went up on the air in Ohio 2036 02:13:41.760 --> 02:13:46.399 with commercials uh counting our our endorsement of him and 2037 02:13:46.479 --> 02:13:48.359 backing his election to the US Senate. 2038 02:13:48.920 --> 02:13:52.199 Well fantastic. I know that this is such a crucial 2039 02:13:52.239 --> 02:13:55.760 election in so many ways, in so many races, and 2040 02:13:55.800 --> 02:13:59.600 you guys are focusing on Ohio and getting Burning Marino 2041 02:13:59.640 --> 02:14:05.239 elect to you do understand the uphill battle you're you're 2042 02:14:05.319 --> 02:14:08.520 facing here And I don't say you're tilting at windmills 2043 02:14:08.560 --> 02:14:12.239 at all, Jennifer, but you understand how hard it is 2044 02:14:12.680 --> 02:14:18.199 to unseat a sitting senator. I pray that this time 2045 02:14:18.640 --> 02:14:22.439 it's going to happen. But you know what the odds are, right, 2046 02:14:22.560 --> 02:14:24.279 you know what you're up against and all the dark 2047 02:14:24.319 --> 02:14:27.000 money you're up against that's supporting Shared Brown. 2048 02:14:28.319 --> 02:14:29.439 Surely we do know. 2049 02:14:29.840 --> 02:14:32.520 But you know this US Senate race and Ohio is 2050 02:14:32.520 --> 02:14:35.079 shaping up to be one of the closest in the country. 2051 02:14:35.640 --> 02:14:38.039 Our recent polling is showing that the race is tightening. 2052 02:14:38.720 --> 02:14:42.399 We expected to continue to tighten. That's why we have 2053 02:14:42.479 --> 02:14:45.000 put our full backing behind Bernie Marino and why we 2054 02:14:45.119 --> 02:14:48.439 have released a seven figure ad buy that will run 2055 02:14:48.479 --> 02:14:53.039 through election day, highlighting the dismal record of Shared Brown 2056 02:14:53.920 --> 02:14:57.199 and with early in person voting starting tomorrow, as you know, 2057 02:14:57.680 --> 02:15:01.600 we are encouraging tomorrow actual eight. We are encouraging every 2058 02:15:01.680 --> 02:15:05.279 freedom loving Ohioan to get out and vote Bernie Marino 2059 02:15:05.399 --> 02:15:06.359 for US Senate. 2060 02:15:06.880 --> 02:15:09.720 How can people find out more about your organization. 2061 02:15:09.279 --> 02:15:13.319 Jennifer Sure, so I encourage them to go to NRA 2062 02:15:13.800 --> 02:15:18.680 PVF Political Victory Fund and r APVF dot org. There 2063 02:15:18.760 --> 02:15:21.720 you can find out more about Shared Brown's, like I said, 2064 02:15:21.760 --> 02:15:24.880 dismal record on the Second Amendment, and to learn more 2065 02:15:24.920 --> 02:15:28.319 about Bernie Marino and his commitment to upholding your Second Amendment. 2066 02:15:28.399 --> 02:15:30.960 Right. Thank you so much for your time this morning, 2067 02:15:31.000 --> 02:15:32.159 and good luck to you. 2068 02:15:33.279 --> 02:15:34.119 Thanks for having us. 2069 02:15:34.159 --> 02:15:35.680 Take care you bet good one. 2070 02:15:35.840 --> 02:15:38.520 Eight thirty five. I'm a Kentucky resident, but I'm I'm 2071 02:15:38.600 --> 02:15:44.119 rooting full bore for that cause and that man, because 2072 02:15:44.199 --> 02:15:46.479 what I'm hearing is exactly what you need to know. 2073 02:15:46.920 --> 02:15:50.920 Eight thirty five at fifty five KRC the talk station. Men, 2074 02:15:51.159 --> 02:15:53.359 if you're suffering for still three and a half four 2075 02:15:53.439 --> 02:15:58.800 years seems like it. But early voting in Ohio begins 2076 02:15:59.000 --> 02:16:03.560 tomorrow October eighth, as it does I know in Dearborn County, Indiana, 2077 02:16:03.560 --> 02:16:06.920 because Michael emailed me and let me know that there's 2078 02:16:06.960 --> 02:16:10.159 early voting going on there tomorrow as well. Today as 2079 02:16:10.159 --> 02:16:12.880 the last day to get registered to vote in the 2080 02:16:12.920 --> 02:16:15.960 state of Ohio. So if you're not registered to vote, 2081 02:16:16.359 --> 02:16:19.560 what the heck are you waiting on? I don't know 2082 02:16:19.600 --> 02:16:23.359 if you saw any of the Sunday morning programs, I'll 2083 02:16:23.479 --> 02:16:30.800 confess I did not. But on MSNBC yesterday, Andrea Mitchell, 2084 02:16:31.600 --> 02:16:34.559 who's been a commie as long as as she's been 2085 02:16:34.600 --> 02:16:38.959 on TV, said yesterday that Kamala Harris is struggling to 2086 02:16:39.000 --> 02:16:44.559 resonate with white and black male voters. No kidding, I 2087 02:16:44.600 --> 02:16:49.200 think she's failing to resonate with almost anyone but your 2088 02:16:49.239 --> 02:16:56.440 lefty suburban housewives clutching their pearls and praying that Donald 2089 02:16:56.479 --> 02:16:59.360 Trump doesn't get near the White House. But she said 2090 02:16:59.399 --> 02:17:03.600 yesterday on the Press that Harris needs to show up 2091 02:17:03.600 --> 02:17:06.239 more in the media because she's not being seen as 2092 02:17:06.280 --> 02:17:12.360 a heavyweight end quote. There is nothing about Kamala Harris 2093 02:17:12.399 --> 02:17:16.680 that suggests that she is a quote heavyweight, end quote. 2094 02:17:18.280 --> 02:17:23.040 She's been one of the most lightweight politicians. Now, how 2095 02:17:23.079 --> 02:17:29.239 she's ascended to this level is up for discussion, and 2096 02:17:31.200 --> 02:17:34.760 there are many people that suggest that heals up. Harris 2097 02:17:35.319 --> 02:17:38.639 had a whole lot to do with Kamala's rise in 2098 02:17:38.680 --> 02:17:41.680 political circles, starting with Willie Brown and San Francisco going 2099 02:17:41.799 --> 02:17:47.239 up to now. I don't know about that because I 2100 02:17:47.319 --> 02:17:49.879 wasn't there. But Mitchell went on she's got such a 2101 02:17:49.879 --> 02:17:56.440 big problem with men. She proceeded to also blame misogyny 2102 02:17:57.040 --> 02:17:59.639 as one of the reasons Harris wasn't being taken seriously 2103 02:17:59.680 --> 02:18:04.959 among both Republican and Democrat men. But she needs to 2104 02:18:05.000 --> 02:18:08.280 show up in the media more. Well, the more she 2105 02:18:08.399 --> 02:18:10.520 actually shows up in the media, and I'm not talking 2106 02:18:10.559 --> 02:18:15.559 about teleprompter's speeches and commercials. She needs to show up. 2107 02:18:15.680 --> 02:18:22.120 The more she shows up answering questions that aren't preen 2108 02:18:23.319 --> 02:18:26.239 pre screened, she's gonna look even more and more like 2109 02:18:26.280 --> 02:18:34.280 the lightweight she is. I think there's misogynation in all 2110 02:18:34.319 --> 02:18:36.879 of this. Black and white men, it's a big problem. 2111 02:18:37.719 --> 02:18:41.520 But also the business world, they don't think she's serious. Well, 2112 02:18:41.559 --> 02:18:46.079 she's cackling like a hyena after being asked serious questions. 2113 02:18:46.079 --> 02:18:48.920 She has a history of that. Why would you ever 2114 02:18:49.159 --> 02:18:53.600 think she was serious about anything. She's not a serious person. 2115 02:18:54.879 --> 02:18:59.799 We all know this. People aren't planning on voting for 2116 02:19:00.559 --> 02:19:05.079 They're planning on voting against Donald Trump. They don't think 2117 02:19:05.120 --> 02:19:08.559 she's a heavyweight. A lot of this is gender has 2118 02:19:08.719 --> 02:19:12.639 nothing to do with her sex, absolutely zero to do 2119 02:19:12.680 --> 02:19:17.520 with Kamala Harris's sex. While black and white men, according 2120 02:19:17.559 --> 02:19:23.479 to Andrea Mitchell are rejecting her since becoming the Democrat 2121 02:19:23.559 --> 02:19:27.559 nominee seventy something days ago. You have to hold a 2122 02:19:27.600 --> 02:19:34.879 single official press conference, and she stepped up interviews. This week, 2123 02:19:35.600 --> 02:19:39.120 she'll make appearances on the View. I don't think that's 2124 02:19:39.159 --> 02:19:42.200 gonna move the needle in getting respect from black and 2125 02:19:42.239 --> 02:19:46.719 white men. The Howard Stern Show and that's another and 2126 02:19:46.760 --> 02:19:52.719 the Late Show with Stephen Colbert. These are not the 2127 02:19:52.840 --> 02:19:57.200 venues that are gonna get her more respect or support 2128 02:19:57.719 --> 02:20:04.959 from men. Howard Stern, what a nightmare he's become. Huh, 2129 02:20:05.000 --> 02:20:09.840 the guy who used to be all about taking down 2130 02:20:09.920 --> 02:20:13.360 the man has earned so much money and becomes such 2131 02:20:14.040 --> 02:20:17.840 a leftist elite that he is the man, and he's 2132 02:20:17.879 --> 02:20:24.440 preaching to us about Donald Trump and this election. Uh God, 2133 02:20:24.440 --> 02:20:29.079 the same thing with Bruce Springsteen. Did you see that endorsement. 2134 02:20:30.159 --> 02:20:36.079 It's like he's at some diner somewhere. He looks like 2135 02:20:36.120 --> 02:20:41.680 he just rolled off a homeless assembly line, and he's 2136 02:20:41.719 --> 02:20:46.479 talking Donald talking Donald Trump as a threat to democracy 2137 02:20:47.120 --> 02:20:51.120 in our country. And you know, you can, like, you 2138 02:20:51.159 --> 02:20:54.079 can like the Boss's music, but I don't think anybody 2139 02:20:54.200 --> 02:20:56.280 is going to be taken a cue from Bruce Springsteen 2140 02:20:56.319 --> 02:20:58.760 as to who to vote for, or Taylor Swift for 2141 02:20:58.799 --> 02:21:06.680 that matter. But Andrea Mitchell says that people don't look 2142 02:21:06.719 --> 02:21:11.319 at Kamala Harris as a heavyweight because she's not the 2143 02:21:15.319 --> 02:21:19.440 Pennsylvania came under fire over the weekend, and they put 2144 02:21:19.479 --> 02:21:24.120 the fire out, thank goodness, because they they scheduled their 2145 02:21:24.239 --> 02:21:28.879 voter registration site to go dark on Saturday when Donald 2146 02:21:28.920 --> 02:21:35.639 Trump went back to Butler. Conservatives were blasting Pennsylvania's Department 2147 02:21:35.680 --> 02:21:39.079 of State earlier this month for scheduling a system maintenance 2148 02:21:39.159 --> 02:21:42.120 update to its voter registration website the very same day 2149 02:21:42.159 --> 02:21:46.200 that President Trump was coming back to Butler, where he 2150 02:21:46.280 --> 02:21:50.280 survived the assassination attempt in July. It would have taken 2151 02:21:50.319 --> 02:21:53.440 the site offline for several hours, during the same timeframe 2152 02:21:53.479 --> 02:21:59.120 that the Trump campaign expected to register voters. The department 2153 02:21:59.159 --> 02:22:01.559 did move the window of time for maintenance to later 2154 02:22:01.600 --> 02:22:06.760 in the night because of the outcry. The official quote 2155 02:22:06.840 --> 02:22:10.040 is the PA State Department voter registration website will be 2156 02:22:10.079 --> 02:22:15.479 unavailable on Saturday, October fifth, the day that President Trump 2157 02:22:15.520 --> 02:22:18.440 will be triumphantly returning to the site of the assassination 2158 02:22:18.479 --> 02:22:21.879 attempt in Butler County, with all eyes on Pa. The 2159 02:22:21.959 --> 02:22:24.719 site will be down coincidence. This is according to a 2160 02:22:24.760 --> 02:22:29.600 GOP activist, and they changed it because of this outcry 2161 02:22:30.319 --> 02:22:36.040 in this uprising here. The website will undergo scheduled system 2162 02:22:36.079 --> 02:22:39.440 maintenance and be unavailable Saturday, October fifth from six pm 2163 02:22:39.520 --> 02:22:44.760 until twelve am. But they changed it then to I 2164 02:22:44.799 --> 02:22:50.399 guess ten pm until four am Sunday in Pennsylvania, so 2165 02:22:50.440 --> 02:22:53.719 the Trump campaign could then register voters for the early 2166 02:22:53.799 --> 02:22:56.159 voting that is going on right now in Pennsylvania, as 2167 02:22:56.200 --> 02:22:58.799 it will be going on in Ohio, as I mentioned 2168 02:22:59.200 --> 02:23:02.360 at the top of this Tomorrow eight forty six and 2169 02:23:02.440 --> 02:23:05.159 some change. Gary jeff In for Brian Thomas this morning 2170 02:23:05.159 --> 02:23:09.799 on fifty five KRCV talk station put the wraps on 2171 02:23:09.840 --> 02:23:13.239 this one on his Monday October seventh, twenty twenty four. 2172 02:23:14.920 --> 02:23:20.200 This story out of North New Jersey a lawsuit, and 2173 02:23:20.200 --> 02:23:22.920 this is the third one filed against the American Dream 2174 02:23:23.120 --> 02:23:26.159 Mega Mall by a visitor saying she was struck and 2175 02:23:26.239 --> 02:23:30.159 seriously injured by one of the waist high motorized stuffed 2176 02:23:30.200 --> 02:23:33.159 animals that people can ride around parts of the mall. 2177 02:23:35.559 --> 02:23:40.280 This lawsuit filed back in September the twenty third. A 2178 02:23:40.319 --> 02:23:45.319 resident Milbourne resident Jaya Lee alleges she was walking through 2179 02:23:45.360 --> 02:23:47.479 the mall while holding her baby when she was suddenly 2180 02:23:47.520 --> 02:23:50.040 and violently struck from behind by a person operating a 2181 02:23:50.040 --> 02:23:54.840 motorized version of an animal. She and her husband are 2182 02:23:54.879 --> 02:23:59.600 seeking damages for medical costs and court costs. Again this 2183 02:23:59.680 --> 02:24:03.799 is the third lawsuit. I never knew that you could 2184 02:24:03.799 --> 02:24:08.000 go and ride stuffed animals in them all. I never 2185 02:24:08.239 --> 02:24:10.319 think that that would be something I would want to do, 2186 02:24:11.559 --> 02:24:17.680 and yet the American dream Megamol has the visitors have 2187 02:24:17.760 --> 02:24:21.399 to be at least four feet high in height to 2188 02:24:21.559 --> 02:24:24.680 use the ride ons by themselves. Only one writer is 2189 02:24:24.719 --> 02:24:26.840 allowed at a time, but exceptions are made for small 2190 02:24:26.879 --> 02:24:29.879 children who can ride with a parent or caretaker. The 2191 02:24:29.920 --> 02:24:32.639 animals can hold up to two hundred They're not animals, 2192 02:24:32.680 --> 02:24:36.600 they're dressed up as animals. Can hold up to two 2193 02:24:36.680 --> 02:24:39.239 hundred and fifty pounds. Standing on foot rest not permitted, 2194 02:24:39.239 --> 02:24:42.040 and eating and drinking while on the ride is discouraged. 2195 02:24:43.120 --> 02:24:49.440 According to the website at the American dream Megamol, our 2196 02:24:49.479 --> 02:24:52.600 animals are easy to maneuver and move at walking speed. 2197 02:24:52.680 --> 02:24:56.239 Bumping into persons or other animal writers is strictly not permitted. 2198 02:24:56.280 --> 02:25:00.000 Well apparently was permitted in this particular occasion, according to 2199 02:25:00.120 --> 02:25:06.799 this lawsuit. There was a lawsuit filed July nineteenth. In 2200 02:25:06.840 --> 02:25:10.159 the March suit, a New York resident alleged she was 2201 02:25:10.200 --> 02:25:12.879 struck by one of the motorized stuffed animals and suffered 2202 02:25:12.920 --> 02:25:17.239 injuries to her spine that required surgery. If you're an adult, 2203 02:25:18.200 --> 02:25:24.840 why would you be writing a stuffed animal at a mall? Anyway? 2204 02:25:24.840 --> 02:25:29.079 There was a lawsuit that was filed this summer. A 2205 02:25:29.120 --> 02:25:32.280 West New York resident alleges that he was hit in 2206 02:25:32.319 --> 02:25:34.840 twenty twenty two by one of the motorized animals as 2207 02:25:34.879 --> 02:25:40.600 it was being ridden by an unsupervised child. Unsupervised children 2208 02:25:41.719 --> 02:25:46.879 will be sold. I love those signs. But all three 2209 02:25:46.959 --> 02:25:49.479 lawsuits alleged that the mall, its owners and dream writers 2210 02:25:49.520 --> 02:25:52.000 operated the right ons in an area meant for pedestrians 2211 02:25:52.000 --> 02:25:57.879 and mall patrons and say while they're listed as walking speed, 2212 02:25:57.920 --> 02:26:01.520 they can travel faster than somebody can walk. This is 2213 02:26:01.520 --> 02:26:06.040 according to one of the complainants who fied the lawsuit, 2214 02:26:09.760 --> 02:26:12.280 and a law professor at Seaton Hall said the suits 2215 02:26:12.360 --> 02:26:15.760 raise a question about whether this idea is just dangerously 2216 02:26:16.680 --> 02:26:20.280 or dangerous inherently that the idea of having vehicles that 2217 02:26:20.319 --> 02:26:24.000 can travel that fast in a crowded mole space and 2218 02:26:24.040 --> 02:26:28.200 being ridden by children is just a dangerous situation. This 2219 02:26:28.319 --> 02:26:30.680 is an East Rutherford, New Jersey where the Giants and 2220 02:26:30.719 --> 02:26:36.719 the Jets play the American Dream. Mega Mall doesn't sound 2221 02:26:36.760 --> 02:26:38.840 like a place I want to go. Do it, But 2222 02:26:38.879 --> 02:26:41.040 I don't want to go to any more, and I 2223 02:26:41.079 --> 02:26:43.520 am not the only one. That's why they're closing all 2224 02:26:43.520 --> 02:26:47.040 over the country, including here in Cincinnati, and been turning 2225 02:26:47.200 --> 02:26:53.040 into something else. One more time. The most important thing 2226 02:26:53.239 --> 02:26:56.280 you can do, and if you're in Ohio, i'd put 2227 02:26:56.360 --> 02:26:59.959 voting right up there, because the people you vote for 2228 02:27:00.559 --> 02:27:09.920 will ultimately be making decisions on the public, public safety, 2229 02:27:10.000 --> 02:27:13.520 and the public's well being because we give them the 2230 02:27:13.600 --> 02:27:17.760 keys to that for us in this country. Whether that's 2231 02:27:17.799 --> 02:27:20.479 a good idea or not, I'm not sure. It depends 2232 02:27:20.479 --> 02:27:23.799 on who you vote for. But today is the last 2233 02:27:23.840 --> 02:27:29.200 day to register to vote in Ohio. Tomorrow the voting begins. 2234 02:27:30.639 --> 02:27:34.120 Go vote, make sure you're registered to vote, and the 2235 02:27:34.159 --> 02:27:36.280 other thing. And this is how I started this morning. 2236 02:27:36.959 --> 02:27:40.159 There's probably nothing more important right now, at this moment 2237 02:27:40.879 --> 02:27:45.479 than taking time and finding some way to help the 2238 02:27:45.520 --> 02:27:51.000 residents of North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Tennessee, Florida who 2239 02:27:51.000 --> 02:27:55.360 have been absolutely devastated, especially in the mountains in North 2240 02:27:55.360 --> 02:27:58.920 Carolina and Appalachia, by the remnants of Hurricane Helene and 2241 02:27:58.959 --> 02:28:03.399 the flooding and the muck. Have no water, no way 2242 02:28:03.399 --> 02:28:07.000 to get anywhere. The hospitals don't have the ability to 2243 02:28:07.040 --> 02:28:12.959 take care of people who are sick. But do whatever 2244 02:28:12.959 --> 02:28:16.479 you can. President Trump has a GoFundMe. Paige. You can 2245 02:28:16.479 --> 02:28:22.120 find that the American Red Cross, Samaritans, Purse Matthew twenty 2246 02:28:22.159 --> 02:28:27.760 five ministries are all excellent choices. And as my wife, 2247 02:28:27.760 --> 02:28:31.600 who is a breast cancer survivor, says, during October, which 2248 02:28:31.639 --> 02:28:36.200 is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, women get your mammograms. She 2249 02:28:36.280 --> 02:28:43.399 had an enhanced mammogram. It detected something and thankfully, thanks 2250 02:28:43.440 --> 02:28:48.159 to Almighty God and the fine doctors at Saint e 2251 02:28:51.600 --> 02:28:57.200 she is now cancer free eight fifty five. That does 2252 02:28:57.239 --> 02:28:59.079 it for me. Glenn Beck. On the other side, I'm 2253 02:28:59.120 --> 02:29:01.760 Gary Jeffen for Ryan Thomas until the next time on 2254 02:29:01.879 --> 02:29:03.959 fifty five KRC the talk station. 2255 02:29:04.520 --> 02:29:06.959 The twenty twenty four election, I was going to get 2256 02:29:06.959 --> 02:29:08.959 to ba Kamala Harris and now President Trump's going to 2257 02:29:09.000 --> 02:29:09.600 get into debater. 2258 02:29:09.840 --> 02:29:12.600 I've kind of picked off about that on fifty five KRC, 2259 02:29:13.200 --> 02:29:14.120 the talk station. 2260 02:29:14.760 --> 02:29:18.040 This report is sponsored by blindster dot com. 2261 02:29:18.120 --> 02:29:18.280 Hi. 2262 02:29:18.360 --> 02:29:19.840 I'm Kyle at blindster dot com.
