Speaker 1: Keeping you in the know all the information in real
Speaker 1: time and again good now right now on fifty five KRC,
Speaker 1: the Talk Stage show at six Here at fifty five
Speaker 1: kr C, the Talk station Tuesday. That means it's time
Speaker 1: for the Insight Scoop with Bright Bart News BOOKMARKT, B,
Speaker 1: R E, I, t V, A, r T dot com.
Speaker 1: Great news there, good reporting, and of course good join
Speaker 1: reporting on a lot of things the mainstream media wouldn't
Speaker 1: touch with a ten foot poll and one of the
Speaker 1: people reporting on such things. Welcome back to the fifty
Speaker 1: five KRC Morning Show. Breitbart's Capitol Hill reporter Nick Gilbertson. Nick,
Speaker 1: good to have you on the show today.
Speaker 2: Hey, Brian, thanks for having me, and thanks for the
Speaker 2: kind words about Breitbart.
Speaker 1: Love it, Love what you guys do, and I really
Speaker 1: enjoy talking to the various folks from Breitbart each week.
Speaker 1: It's just really a great segment on my program. And
Speaker 1: spread the news about the website as well. I always
Speaker 1: love doing that. Now, did you attend the convention last night?
Speaker 1: Are you at the NC convention in Chicago or you
Speaker 1: just reporting about it?
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean I'm here on the ground in uh Chicago.
Speaker 2: So I was at the convention to a point yesterday.
Speaker 2: So yeah, I was in there for much of the
Speaker 2: afternoon and into the early evening. So it was definitely
Speaker 2: kind of like the tale of two d n c's.
Speaker 2: There was, of course, you know, the Kumbaia and where
Speaker 2: unified party. That was kind of the rhetoric and the
Speaker 2: secure zone there, you know, where the delegates and other
Speaker 2: people go, and then you know, a few hundred yards
Speaker 2: away you could hear protesters after a march beat the
Speaker 2: pro Palestinian, anti Israel protesters, you know, screaming anti Kamala Harris,
Speaker 2: Chance Harris, Harris, what do you say? How many kids
Speaker 2: did you kill today? So it was it was very
Speaker 2: it was a tale of two totally different d n
Speaker 2: seas and it just really shows the underlying fracture that's
Speaker 2: taken place in the party here.
Speaker 1: Well, I suppose every buddy there probably would have liked
Speaker 1: to have had a say in the matter had they
Speaker 1: been asked whether they want Kamala Harris to be the
Speaker 1: nominee or not, but they weren't. They were deprived of that.
Speaker 1: We all know that. How do you believe that the
Speaker 1: Democrats are going to navigate this huge divide on that
Speaker 1: issue within their party.
Speaker 2: Now.
Speaker 1: I have many, many Jewish friends, lots of them, and
Speaker 1: as we all know, the Jewish people typically vote very,
Speaker 1: very heavily in favor of Democrats, and it's been that
Speaker 1: way my entire life. For reasons that just have escaped me.
Speaker 1: I don't know. But here we have an issue where
Speaker 1: Kamala Harris I think Leans more pro Palestine. Certainly many
Speaker 1: people Illanomar and AOC's and the rest within her party
Speaker 1: are very pro Palestine anti Israel. Now that's an insurmountable
Speaker 1: divide there. I don't know there's any solution. I mean,
Speaker 1: if you could come up with a solution, then you'd
Speaker 1: have peace in the Middle East for God's sake.
Speaker 2: Yeah, And you know she so it's very difficult because
Speaker 2: she I mean, this is something when your party is
Speaker 2: divided like this like this late in the in the game,
Speaker 2: heading into the general election, like you hope to have
Speaker 2: your party united earlier, like far before the convention, getting
Speaker 2: into the general election. And right now she's having to
Speaker 2: playkate to this far left faction of the party and
Speaker 2: these pro Palestinian protesters. And right now she should be
Speaker 2: focused on winning moderates, and she can't do that, you know,
Speaker 2: and playcate these voters at the same exact time. So
Speaker 2: she's really stuck between a rock and a hard place
Speaker 2: on that front. And like you said, many Democrats or
Speaker 2: many Jewish voters do vote Democrat, and you know, pro
Speaker 2: Israel Jewish voters, you know, are certainly not gonna probably
Speaker 2: you know, radical pro Palestinian policy, they probably be against that.
Speaker 2: So she has to kind of juggle both of those
Speaker 2: fronts while trying to bring her base back home this
Speaker 2: late in the game and trying to appeal to moderate voters.
Speaker 2: I think it's just a really tall task. And I
Speaker 2: think the more she's exposed to the media and has
Speaker 2: to answer for these specific policy things, she's gonna get
Speaker 2: exposed on it.
Speaker 1: Well, one can only hope that happens soon. We know,
Speaker 1: early voting begins what the ninth of September in many states,
Speaker 1: including some battleground states, and we're just a moment in
Speaker 1: time away from the election. I don't know how anybody
Speaker 1: can make an informed choice on this. The Democrats are
Speaker 1: playing that law or that strategy to run the clock out.
Speaker 1: She doesn't have to deal with the challenge because she's
Speaker 1: not confronted by people asking the pointed questions, she comes
Speaker 1: out gives this sort of you know, smiley glad handy,
Speaker 1: you know, if a word's salad, but well scripted from
Speaker 1: read from a teleprompter. But it's not diving into the issues.
Speaker 1: She's not answering the question of how you pay for
Speaker 1: all the litany of new programs she wants to roll out.
Speaker 1: She's not being asked how to deal with the deficit
Speaker 1: we've already accumulated, not asked to deal with specific questions
Speaker 1: about the border and the failure on the border. As
Speaker 1: long as she hides, you know, we get no answers
Speaker 1: as a public. And so we're left with a choice
Speaker 1: between someone who's trying to be repainted as a modern
Speaker 1: by the media and Donald Trump, who already has that
Speaker 1: built in Pavlovian god, I hate Trump response from fifty
Speaker 1: percent of the population.
Speaker 2: Yeah, no, absolutely. I mean the media is totally, it seems,
Speaker 2: doing her bidding. And you know, she's getting a free
Speaker 2: pass on so many things. And you know, the only
Speaker 2: times we really do hear her speak are at these
Speaker 2: rallies that she goes to, and of course that setting
Speaker 2: is she's in entire control of the setting right in terms,
Speaker 2: there's no back and forth. It's just one way communication
Speaker 2: to you know, the cameras into the supporters. There. She's
Speaker 2: not fielding questions and she's not going deep on policy
Speaker 2: on anything other than really abortion, which is like Poles
Speaker 2: have shown time and time again, this is that's not
Speaker 2: a top issue for voters. This is the selection cycle.
Speaker 2: So it's you know, immigration, the economy, national security, like
Speaker 2: those are top issues. So it's and again she's getting
Speaker 2: a pass from the media on it. It's interesting to
Speaker 2: just see them, you know, let her get by with
Speaker 2: all this stuff. But again, we still haven't had an interview,
Speaker 2: and I think it's been about a month here since
Speaker 2: Joe Biden dropped out of the race, and she hasn't
Speaker 2: had a real press conference either. So it's it's very
Speaker 2: and yet, like you said, I think early voting probably
Speaker 2: begins in September sometime, so we're really you know, running
Speaker 2: out of time here to or the clocks the clock's
Speaker 2: taking for sure.
Speaker 1: Well in the reporting, I had a conversation with Congressman
Speaker 1: Warren Davidson prior to our conversation right now. He just
Speaker 1: he was just on the morning show and I asked
Speaker 1: him about this, you know, the polling which you had
Speaker 1: this newly reinvented Kamala Harris. Uh, she's great, She's awesome,
Speaker 1: she's joyous, she's she's the answer in the anecdote or
Speaker 1: the antidote to Trump. Fine, that's we're here in the media. Obviously,
Speaker 1: she gets a bit of a you know, sort of
Speaker 1: a period of time where she can enjoy the jump
Speaker 1: in the polls. If we had more time between now
Speaker 1: and the election, I think those numbers would erode, given
Speaker 1: where she is on any given policy. But she's got
Speaker 1: this honeymoon period going on, and the American public, we
Speaker 1: keep reading about it. Oh, the irons are this poll
Speaker 1: you know, CNN poll says she's ahead by three points nationally,
Speaker 1: she's neck and neck in the swing states. We've been
Speaker 1: getting inundated with these new polling numbers, which shows that
Speaker 1: she has gained back the division between where Biden stood
Speaker 1: and where Trump did in the polls. So we have
Speaker 1: a perception now that it's possibly winnable for Kamala Harris.
Speaker 1: And I know there's a whole lot of strong Trump
Speaker 1: support out there. I know a lot of people are
Speaker 1: hurting with the economy, the issues you and I talked about,
Speaker 1: which would lead one to conclude they might be more
Speaker 1: inclined to go Trump. But if we at least have
Speaker 1: maybe the lie built into the cake that she's modern
Speaker 1: and she's polling grade, that they could get away with
Speaker 1: something during the election that you know, we're worried about,
Speaker 1: maybe uh, interference with the election, or or some Shenanigans
Speaker 1: or steel and and and an effort to steal the election.
Speaker 1: You could sell that to an American public who believes
Speaker 1: that she is neck and net.
Speaker 2: Yeah. I mean it's certainly, you know, it's this reinventing
Speaker 2: of her has really gone a long way, and the
Speaker 2: fact that she's not getting challenged on the stuff she's
Speaker 2: you know, it's it's I feel like you have a
Speaker 2: great point that Brian, that they could try and make
Speaker 2: that argument, you know, down the stretch here. I I
Speaker 2: think that her I think Harris is the fact that
Speaker 2: she's able to to skirt these issues right now is
Speaker 2: is really uh. Rather, let me just start backtrack here.
Speaker 2: There was a media research poll, a media research center.
Speaker 2: They put up this pole of these ten radical policies
Speaker 2: that Harris has stood by, going back probably to twenty
Speaker 2: nineteen when when she was a Democrat candidate for president
Speaker 2: back then, in Lawson was one of the first people
Speaker 2: out in the primary, like these ten radical policies. They
Speaker 2: pulled these voters across the country and between seventy one
Speaker 2: to eighty six percent of these were Biden Democrats and
Speaker 2: Biden Independence. In twenty twenty, they had no idea she
Speaker 2: had espoused these policy views, yea, like seventy one to
Speaker 2: eighty six percent. And the big thing is all these
Speaker 2: media and they did a big analysis on all these
Speaker 2: on you know, these legacy media companies ABC News, CBS News,
Speaker 2: NBC News, and I think there was only like minimal
Speaker 2: cover Like I think the only cover two or three
Speaker 2: of the ten issues between those three networks, like in
Speaker 2: the course of like two or three weeks once Harris
Speaker 2: became the presumptive nominee. So again, like you're saying, it's
Speaker 2: just that the media is doing the bidding, and it's
Speaker 2: kind of it's kind of setting up this scenario where
Speaker 2: they can try and make that pitch here down the stretch,
Speaker 2: you know, you sneak her in with like ninety days
Speaker 2: left and then yeah, kind of have the honeymoon period.
Speaker 2: But again I don't know. I feel like she's starts.
Speaker 2: She's gotten some pressure from CNN and other places about
Speaker 2: not doing interviews. They've seen, Jim Acosta said, a lot
Speaker 2: of people bring it up. So I think it's starting
Speaker 2: to become a story now for her, and I think
Speaker 2: it's gonna I think it's a campaign issue now, and
Speaker 2: I think the longer she goes without doing it, and
Speaker 2: the more attention that can be brought to it, I
Speaker 2: think the weaker she looks.
Speaker 1: Like price controls, for example, that came out and everybody
Speaker 1: lost their minds, me included. But when you lose the
Speaker 1: Washington Post editorial board on when you mentioned price controls
Speaker 1: and they say you're an idiot, You're crazy, You have
Speaker 1: no economic understanding. If you believe price controls are going
Speaker 1: to benefit America's you got a problem on your hands
Speaker 1: right there.
Speaker 2: Yeah. Absolutely. I talked with Senator Rick Scott about this
Speaker 2: yesterday at a big infuter interview with him at the
Speaker 2: Trump Hotel. It's on Bright Bartuck. You know. Senator Scott
Speaker 2: told me that, you know, so if we do price controls,
Speaker 2: he said, quote, we'll have the hair as high prices,
Speaker 2: and then we'll also have the hair shortages. Yeah, and
Speaker 2: he called it peer socialism, so it's just yeah, yeah,
Speaker 2: the price controls are just that's quite the pitch. And
Speaker 2: you know, again she's not she doesn't have to answer
Speaker 2: for that because she's not taking real questions. We're sitting
Speaker 2: down for interviews.
Speaker 1: Real quick, since you're there obviously so far, and you know,
Speaker 1: I got my popcorn out. I'll wait for the end
Speaker 1: of it. The protesters did not arrive to the in
Speaker 1: the numbers that were originally anticipated. I know that one
Speaker 1: of the anti Israel groups expected about thirty thousand folks there,
Speaker 1: and I think they said maybe half of that number
Speaker 1: actually showed up.
Speaker 2: Is it?
Speaker 1: I know you said you mentioned early in the discussion
Speaker 1: this morning here that they were you could be hearing
Speaker 1: them out in the streets, that their voices could be heard,
Speaker 1: But are they there in larger numbers?
Speaker 2: Is it? Is?
Speaker 1: It represents some kind of thread. This doesn't sound, in
Speaker 1: other words, like it's going to be nineteen sixty eight
Speaker 1: all over again.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean that was just day day one. We
Speaker 2: saw yesterday, so I mean they did end up preaching
Speaker 2: the gate there, but where I could hear them from
Speaker 2: a few minutes, a few minutes later they actually reached
Speaker 2: the gate. Our cameraman Matthew Perry got fantastic footage of that,
Speaker 2: and some of them are pouring through. But it seemed
Speaker 2: to me that there was you know, hundreds, maybe a
Speaker 2: thousand or so, maybe a little more protesters there. I
Speaker 2: wasn't exactly in the Skirmer shows kind of watching from Afar,
Speaker 2: and yeah, we'll see exactly how many, excuse me, how
Speaker 2: many protesters end up showing up throughout the week. But
Speaker 2: there's like various different groups have different things organized. But
Speaker 2: again I don't I'm not sure on the exact number
Speaker 2: that is here, and I think things are subject to
Speaker 2: change throughout the week. The group that had that big
Speaker 2: protest yesterday or that was at twelve, so that was
Speaker 2: kind of to kick things off. That group is a
Speaker 2: coalition of one hundred and fifty groups like around the country,
Speaker 2: and they're protesting again on Thursday at five pm and
Speaker 2: they're going to march down to the United Center. So
Speaker 2: that would track timing wise with you know, within an
Speaker 2: hour or two of Kamala Harris taking the stage. So
Speaker 2: I think that we'll see what that holds, and we'll
Speaker 2: see what the number is of that protest, But I
Speaker 2: think that's going to be a really big one to watch.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it ain't over yet. In other words, Fat Lady
Speaker 1: hasn't sang it may it may turn into sixty eight
Speaker 1: after all.
Speaker 2: That's right, it ain't over yet.
Speaker 1: Nick gilbertson again, he's the Capito Hill Report with bright Bird.
Speaker 1: Just the one final question. Is there a noticeably huge
Speaker 1: police presence there? I just had a friend post of
Speaker 1: view of the street and looks like there's nine gajillion
Speaker 1: cops marching down the street there, is it? Is it noticeable?
Speaker 2: Yeah, there's definitely a noticeable police presidence. I mean I'm
Speaker 2: sitting here in the hotel breakfast area and that there's
Speaker 2: just a few police officers at the table next to
Speaker 2: me getting their breakfast. So yeah, and you know there's
Speaker 2: that I think Sunday night there they were all lined
Speaker 2: up along the protester There's hundreds and hundreds of cops.
Speaker 2: And then yeah, and there's cops all within the security
Speaker 2: perimeter and all around it as well. So there's a lot.
Speaker 2: There's a big police presence here.
Speaker 1: Yeah, for a change anyway in the city of Chicago.
Speaker 1: Nick Coverts, and we'll be talking again soon. I hope
Speaker 1: be safe there and enjoy your time in the DNC,
Speaker 1: and I look forward to hearing more reports and reading
Speaker 1: what you write about on Breitbart.
Speaker 2: Thank you, Brian, thanks for having me my pleasure.
Speaker 1: Hey twenty right now, if you have k City Talk station,
Speaker 1: Daniel Davis Deep Dive, We're going to jump over to Ukraine.
Speaker 1: They're blowing up bridges in Russia. Russia's rebuilding them with
Speaker 1: pontoon bridges right away. Is that going to get anybody anywhere?
Speaker 1: We'll talk to Daan at the bottom of the hour. First,
Speaker 1: affordable imaging services. Yes, you have a choice when it
Speaker 1: comes to your medical care. You can go wherever you want.
Speaker 1: That's just a simple statement of fact. Now, when it
Speaker 1: comes to your insurance comedy, you might have some litations,
Speaker 1: but you know when you can save thousands of dollars
Speaker 1: on a medical image by going to affordable imaging services
Speaker 1: rather than the hospital imaging center. Honestly, in most cases
Speaker 1: your insurance will pay for it any way. But with
Speaker 1: an MRI costing only four hundred and ninety five dollars,
Speaker 1: I think in many cases and in most cases, out
Speaker 1: of pocket responsibility for you under your insurance program will
Speaker 1: cost you more than the whole scan with the board
Speaker 1: certified Radiologist report, which it comes with when you get
Speaker 1: a scan at Affordable Imaging Services.
Speaker 2: So it's worth.
Speaker 1: Crunching the numbers, and many insurance companies will pay for
Speaker 1: the the for the small amount that is the charge
Speaker 1: for the whole package. Affordable Imaging Services does MRIs for
Speaker 1: four ninety five. You put a contrast in, it's six
Speaker 1: forty five, and that's the most expensive image you can
Speaker 1: pay for over at the hospital. That could set you
Speaker 1: back three thousand, four thousand, maybe five thousand dollars. And
Speaker 1: the same thing goes for CT scans. A CT scan
Speaker 1: four hundred and fifty bucks six hundred with a contrast
Speaker 1: and echo cardigram only four ninety five, ultrasound two fifty ah,
Speaker 1: they won't even look at you for two hunred and
Speaker 1: fifty bucks at the hospital. And again all these come
Speaker 1: with the radiologists report. You probably would get a separate
Speaker 1: bill if you go to the imaging department. So when
Speaker 1: it comes to your medical care, I say save money
Speaker 1: Affordable Imaging Services. You can find them online easily and
Speaker 1: learn more at Affordable Medimaging dot com, Affordable Medimaging dot
Speaker 1: com call them up for the appointment five one three
Speaker 1: seven five three eight fifty five KRC.
