WEBVTT 1 00:00:00.440 --> 00:00:05.080 Time for one more for the road, maybe three hours 2 00:00:05.120 --> 00:00:07.280 worth of one more for the road. It's the night 3 00:00:07.400 --> 00:00:12.240 pat On seven hundred WLW. I'm Gary Jeff Walker, and 4 00:00:12.279 --> 00:00:16.120 I come to you tonight with a heavy heart. And 5 00:00:16.160 --> 00:00:20.679 it's a heavy heart because I know that some people 6 00:00:20.719 --> 00:00:25.440 are not happy with me right now. And you ask, well, why, 7 00:00:25.480 --> 00:00:30.519 Gary Jeff? Why would anybody be unhappy with you? Is 8 00:00:30.559 --> 00:00:34.719 it because for the last three or four years you've 9 00:00:34.759 --> 00:00:37.679 called out a whole generation of woke, imbecilic people who 10 00:00:37.719 --> 00:00:41.320 are obviously either mental patients. We've driven the car of 11 00:00:41.399 --> 00:00:45.280 their life in their mind so far off the trail 12 00:00:45.359 --> 00:00:53.320 of common sense that they're in another galaxy right now, mentally, spiritually. Perhaps. No, 13 00:00:53.560 --> 00:00:57.320 it's not because of that, not because I called him out. 14 00:00:57.679 --> 00:01:00.439 Is it because I supported Donald Trump? AND's it'll do 15 00:01:00.640 --> 00:01:04.000 our forty seventh president of these United States? I voted 16 00:01:04.000 --> 00:01:07.200 for him now three times two out of three, ain't bad? 17 00:01:07.319 --> 00:01:10.760 Meat Loaf said that, No, it's not because I'm a 18 00:01:10.799 --> 00:01:13.400 Trump supporter, even though there are plenty of people walking 19 00:01:13.439 --> 00:01:18.680 around still with Trump derangement syndrome in our society. 20 00:01:20.159 --> 00:01:23.760 No, it's not because of that. What could it be? 21 00:01:24.200 --> 00:01:27.879 Is it because I questioned like many other people at 22 00:01:27.920 --> 00:01:29.680 the time, when we were just told to sit down 23 00:01:29.719 --> 00:01:32.359 and shut up and the science was settled that the 24 00:01:32.680 --> 00:01:38.040 COVID nineteen mRNA vaccine was both safe and effective. Nothing 25 00:01:38.079 --> 00:01:41.120 to worry about here, nothing to see here, but we 26 00:01:41.200 --> 00:01:45.959 know from Pfizer's own documents. And now today the CIA 27 00:01:46.079 --> 00:01:49.519 came out and said, with a low level of confidence, 28 00:01:49.560 --> 00:01:55.359 they now support the theory of a lab leak as 29 00:01:55.359 --> 00:01:59.480 to how the virus got out into the world, something 30 00:01:59.519 --> 00:02:03.439 that was called, well, the conspiracy theory just a couple 31 00:02:03.519 --> 00:02:07.040 of years ago that I and a lot of people 32 00:02:07.439 --> 00:02:10.919 without any kind of you know, firsthand knowledge, have been 33 00:02:11.000 --> 00:02:13.439 saying is a matter of common sense. They were doing 34 00:02:13.520 --> 00:02:16.800 the gain of function research. It was there at Wuhan. 35 00:02:17.520 --> 00:02:22.919 It leaked out of that lab carelessness perhaps, or maybe 36 00:02:23.479 --> 00:02:25.240 something more nefarious. 37 00:02:25.319 --> 00:02:26.120 Who knows. 38 00:02:26.439 --> 00:02:28.840 There's a lot of the conspiracy theories have turned out 39 00:02:28.879 --> 00:02:33.280 to be like true in the last four or five years. 40 00:02:33.639 --> 00:02:36.520 We've all been watching an unfold. Are people mad at 41 00:02:36.560 --> 00:02:36.879 me for that? 42 00:02:37.080 --> 00:02:38.680 No? No, no, no no no. 43 00:02:39.800 --> 00:02:44.439 Some people are upset with me because I'm a Kansas 44 00:02:44.479 --> 00:02:48.439 City Chiefs fan. You know, I moved to Cincinnati in 45 00:02:48.520 --> 00:02:51.639 nineteen ninety four. I followed the Bengals because they were 46 00:02:51.639 --> 00:02:54.479 the hometown team I didn't grow up with my whole life, 47 00:02:55.280 --> 00:03:00.560 but I adopted them as my NFL team in the city. 48 00:03:01.199 --> 00:03:05.960 Should support the local teams, right right well, after years 49 00:03:06.120 --> 00:03:15.599 of malaise and disappointment, I saw Patrick Mahomes play for 50 00:03:15.639 --> 00:03:18.159 the Kansas City Chiefs, just as he was beginning what 51 00:03:18.280 --> 00:03:21.639 has become a Hall of Fame career, and I said, 52 00:03:21.680 --> 00:03:25.000 you know what, I like that team. I like Andy Reid. 53 00:03:25.800 --> 00:03:28.120 And this is before they won the first of their 54 00:03:28.159 --> 00:03:31.680 Super Bowls, which there may be a third coming up 55 00:03:33.000 --> 00:03:40.360 just a week from next Sunday on February fifth. Now 56 00:03:40.439 --> 00:03:45.560 people are upset. The phone just absolutely blowing up. People 57 00:03:45.719 --> 00:03:46.840 very very unhappy. 58 00:03:48.000 --> 00:03:48.840 My friend. 59 00:03:50.360 --> 00:03:56.240 Rick Pisqually, for example, I just text him at about 60 00:03:56.599 --> 00:03:59.479 eleven minutes after ten last night, after the game had 61 00:03:59.479 --> 00:04:02.439 finished in Kansas City, had ensured the fact that they 62 00:04:02.520 --> 00:04:05.360 do have a shot, a real shot to three pete 63 00:04:05.599 --> 00:04:09.439 in the Super Bowl. I said, this is all I said, 64 00:04:09.879 --> 00:04:14.319 doing the Trump dance right now. He texts me back, 65 00:04:15.000 --> 00:04:19.120 happy for you, thumbs down. Not all in Ky, yelled 66 00:04:19.160 --> 00:04:24.040 at me. He is unhappy with me strictly based on 67 00:04:24.120 --> 00:04:27.399 the football team that I happened to be cheering for, 68 00:04:28.480 --> 00:04:34.040 and I just don't think that that is fair. No, 69 00:04:34.199 --> 00:04:38.079 I mean, seriously, I understand people are their strong allegiances 70 00:04:38.480 --> 00:04:42.920 to the Bengals, and if you grew up here and 71 00:04:43.040 --> 00:04:46.279 you're a lifelong Cincinnatian, I totally get it. There are 72 00:04:46.279 --> 00:04:49.480 plenty of people who grew up here a lifelong Cincinnatians 73 00:04:49.519 --> 00:04:53.759 who are not Bingals fans. They like the Stillers, which 74 00:04:53.839 --> 00:04:58.120 is just atroacious. Anybody who likes the Steelers. I know 75 00:04:58.240 --> 00:05:01.199 they won a lot of Super Bowls, a lot of 76 00:05:01.240 --> 00:05:05.920 supposed great teams over the course of time, the immaculate reception, 77 00:05:07.399 --> 00:05:12.920 you know, Terry Bradshaw, Ben Roethlisberger. I get it, I understand, 78 00:05:13.439 --> 00:05:16.120 But not in Cincinnati. You don't live in Pittsburgh. You 79 00:05:16.199 --> 00:05:20.000 live in Cincinnati. I know people that root for the 80 00:05:20.000 --> 00:05:25.040 Green Bay Packers. The pack is back all around the country. 81 00:05:25.199 --> 00:05:28.079 It never left. I saw I was driving down the 82 00:05:28.160 --> 00:05:33.480 road in Newport yesterday and a guy in this little 83 00:05:33.560 --> 00:05:38.800 Chevy spark That's another story, entirely little weenie car. 84 00:05:39.639 --> 00:05:42.240 But he was obviously a Packers. 85 00:05:41.839 --> 00:05:46.759 Fan, back the pack and Packers owner. He may own 86 00:05:46.800 --> 00:05:49.879 a share of the Green Bay Packers, which is really cool, 87 00:05:50.879 --> 00:05:54.319 unique that the fans actually have a real piece of 88 00:05:54.360 --> 00:05:57.920 the team, not just from a fans perspective, but as 89 00:05:57.959 --> 00:06:01.839 an owner's perspective. People who are Packers fans all over 90 00:06:01.839 --> 00:06:06.040 the country, not just in Cincinnati. There are people who 91 00:06:06.160 --> 00:06:10.480 like Dallas here who grew up in Cincinnati, Cincinnati all 92 00:06:10.519 --> 00:06:14.560 their life. Bengals. Now, give me the Cowboys. How about 93 00:06:14.600 --> 00:06:18.720 them boys? You want to talk about a franchise that 94 00:06:18.759 --> 00:06:22.959 has yielded disappointment after disappointment after disappointment over the last 95 00:06:23.319 --> 00:06:26.720 but almost thirty years, the Dallas Cowboys. 96 00:06:27.360 --> 00:06:27.399 No. 97 00:06:27.519 --> 00:06:29.319 But I saw the Chiefs play and I said, you 98 00:06:29.360 --> 00:06:31.439 know what. And this was before the Bengals had drafted 99 00:06:31.519 --> 00:06:34.879 Joe Burrow. I gave up on them too early, perhaps, 100 00:06:36.439 --> 00:06:39.439 But people are not. You may be listening to this 101 00:06:39.720 --> 00:06:46.560 just seething right now. I mean the blood vessels popping 102 00:06:46.560 --> 00:06:50.319 out in your eyes, your eyes bulging out, the creases 103 00:06:50.439 --> 00:06:53.879 on your brow. You probably have tuned out already if 104 00:06:53.920 --> 00:06:58.160 you're that mad at me. But you know, come on, 105 00:06:58.800 --> 00:07:02.199 it's just a game. And somebody else asked me because 106 00:07:02.240 --> 00:07:06.480 I predicted over the weekend wrongly by the way, that 107 00:07:06.720 --> 00:07:11.879 Washington was going to surprise, shock, upset, Philadelphia, and it 108 00:07:12.000 --> 00:07:15.879 was absolutely the other way around. Philadelphia didn't surprise anybody. 109 00:07:15.920 --> 00:07:19.199 They just rolled over the Commanders. But I also predicted 110 00:07:19.279 --> 00:07:22.959 the Chiefs would beat the Bills last night, and lo 111 00:07:23.120 --> 00:07:26.759 and behold, I was right. So again I'm batting about 112 00:07:26.879 --> 00:07:31.360 five hundred there. But I also predicted a Super Bowl 113 00:07:31.480 --> 00:07:34.839 in which the Washington Commanders, with the upstart rookie quarterback 114 00:07:34.959 --> 00:07:40.120 Jaden Daniels, would somehow surprise and upset the Kansas City 115 00:07:40.199 --> 00:07:43.279 Chiefs on their way to three Super Bowls in a row. 116 00:07:45.040 --> 00:07:47.519 I think that the Eagles have a very good chance 117 00:07:48.959 --> 00:07:53.199 to knock off the Chiefs, even if the Philadelphia mayor 118 00:07:53.240 --> 00:07:57.879 can't spell the name of their team, especially when it's 119 00:07:57.920 --> 00:08:04.439 on a banner behind her. So anyway, very excited for 120 00:08:04.639 --> 00:08:06.959 my Chiefs to go to the Super Bowl. And those 121 00:08:07.000 --> 00:08:13.079 of you who are tasting the bitterness of sour grapes 122 00:08:13.120 --> 00:08:16.240 this morning, just not that you were rooting for the Bills, 123 00:08:16.839 --> 00:08:22.319 but because the Chiefs won. Sorry, sorry about your luck. 124 00:08:23.680 --> 00:08:26.560 Have a good show tonight, and we will begin that 125 00:08:27.399 --> 00:08:30.800 with my friend Peter Bronson for a conversation that should 126 00:08:30.959 --> 00:08:34.519 stretch until about ten o'clock. Author and lawyer Rick Robinson, 127 00:08:34.559 --> 00:08:37.960 who is a DC animal will be. I mean, he 128 00:08:38.440 --> 00:08:40.360 was in Washington for a long time. He was in 129 00:08:40.399 --> 00:08:43.360 the corridors of power. He knows how it works, and 130 00:08:43.399 --> 00:08:45.919 that's why he's kind of leary of Donald Trump, like 131 00:08:45.960 --> 00:08:48.919 the rest of the Washington Swamp. He'll be with us 132 00:08:49.240 --> 00:08:52.759 after ten. We have Andy Furman coming up, maybe a 133 00:08:52.879 --> 00:08:56.120 chat with the wild Man aj Rice, who's a publicity 134 00:08:56.240 --> 00:09:00.639 guru for Publius pr and. 135 00:09:02.159 --> 00:09:02.639 Much more. 136 00:09:02.840 --> 00:09:05.679 Lee Shi La Mish will come back for a second 137 00:09:05.720 --> 00:09:07.519 visit to tell us a little bit more about what 138 00:09:07.559 --> 00:09:13.519 the Chinese Communist government is doing to the dance and 139 00:09:13.600 --> 00:09:17.080 performance members of the chen Yune Dance Troupe, which is 140 00:09:17.120 --> 00:09:23.200 currently in its annual tour through the United States, and 141 00:09:23.440 --> 00:09:27.200 a whole lot more so. It is the Nightcap. Don't 142 00:09:27.240 --> 00:09:31.720 be mad with me just because I happen to like 143 00:09:31.799 --> 00:09:35.240 the Red and Gold that plays their home football games 144 00:09:35.279 --> 00:09:38.039 at Arrowhead Stadium and will be heading to New Orleans 145 00:09:38.399 --> 00:09:41.840 to face off against the Philadelphia Eagles for Super Bowl 146 00:09:41.919 --> 00:09:46.240 fifty nine in just less than two weeks. Don't be 147 00:09:46.320 --> 00:09:51.600 mad at me, you know, don't hate the player, hate 148 00:09:51.639 --> 00:09:56.279 the game. Peter Bronson and the beginning of our conversation 149 00:09:56.720 --> 00:10:01.240 coming up next on the Nightcap on seven hundred WLW. Graciousness, 150 00:10:01.360 --> 00:10:04.720 we deliver Peter Bronson in this first hour of this 151 00:10:04.840 --> 00:10:09.679 nightcap tonight on seven hundred WLW and Pete all was 152 00:10:09.879 --> 00:10:12.360 great to talk to you, you know, both you and 153 00:10:12.440 --> 00:10:16.480 Rick Robinson, who's on later, we have just this great 154 00:10:17.039 --> 00:10:19.600 back and forth kind of chemistry. I always have a 155 00:10:19.600 --> 00:10:24.159 good time together and a good time and occasionally there's 156 00:10:24.200 --> 00:10:28.679 something that somebody should should hear before they die. But 157 00:10:29.120 --> 00:10:32.519 occasionally we'll see if tonight is one of those occasions. 158 00:10:32.519 --> 00:10:34.559 Well, it's good to be with you. I gotta tell you. 159 00:10:34.600 --> 00:10:36.919 I don't usually stay up this late, right. 160 00:10:36.919 --> 00:10:42.240 Well, I you know generally I don't. Either I've slept 161 00:10:42.279 --> 00:10:46.399 through three or four nightcaps. Well I probably will too. 162 00:10:47.360 --> 00:10:51.000 I mean I was still talking to my wife. 163 00:10:51.480 --> 00:10:54.639 Calls me out for that all the time. Sorry, did 164 00:10:54.639 --> 00:11:04.159 I say anything unintelligible? Hopefully right. So I do want 165 00:11:04.200 --> 00:11:10.000 to get into the first week of Trump sometime between 166 00:11:10.000 --> 00:11:15.080 now and ten o'clock, and just what a whirlwind, oh 167 00:11:15.200 --> 00:11:20.200 unbelievable of activity. Whether you agree with the agenda and 168 00:11:20.240 --> 00:11:23.879 the policies that he's pushing forward, or whether you disagree 169 00:11:23.960 --> 00:11:28.159 with everything that Trump does, you've got to marvel at 170 00:11:28.200 --> 00:11:30.679 the man and his energy. 171 00:11:30.919 --> 00:11:33.399 Just absolutely no, no kidding. 172 00:11:34.240 --> 00:11:37.399 Nobody knew government could move so fast. It reminds me 173 00:11:37.440 --> 00:11:38.720 of when I was a kid. I had one of 174 00:11:38.759 --> 00:11:41.200 those little dimestar turtles. You know, they're about the size 175 00:11:41.200 --> 00:11:43.679 of a fifty cent piece. Yeah, and I fired a 176 00:11:43.679 --> 00:11:46.440 cap gun next to one, and that that little bugger 177 00:11:46.559 --> 00:11:49.039 took off like lightning. And I was like, man, I 178 00:11:49.080 --> 00:11:54.279 didn't know turtles were that fast. And there's your government 179 00:11:54.440 --> 00:11:58.320 under Trump. It's like he fires the gun and now 180 00:11:58.519 --> 00:12:02.480 take off running. Who knew that our US government could 181 00:12:02.639 --> 00:12:07.679 within hours, within an hour of his inauguration, when he's 182 00:12:07.840 --> 00:12:10.320 wore to be to defend our borders. Within an hour, 183 00:12:10.720 --> 00:12:13.840 the US military was landing on the border. Who knew 184 00:12:13.919 --> 00:12:17.320 that could happen? This has always been the role of 185 00:12:17.360 --> 00:12:20.000 the US military. The fact that it was prevented from 186 00:12:20.440 --> 00:12:26.840 from happening shows you the willful intent of invading our country, 187 00:12:26.879 --> 00:12:32.200 a sovereign nation with foreigners strictly not for business purposes, 188 00:12:32.240 --> 00:12:35.679 not for the economy, but for voting purposes. Yeah, it 189 00:12:35.759 --> 00:12:38.919 tells you everything you need to know when the US 190 00:12:39.159 --> 00:12:43.679 the federal government's first job, according to the Constitution, is 191 00:12:43.720 --> 00:12:47.759 to provide for the common defense. Provide for the common 192 00:12:47.799 --> 00:12:50.720 defense of the country. That's first. Promote the general welfare 193 00:12:50.720 --> 00:12:55.159 is second, and people get those confused. Yeah, provide general Well, no, 194 00:12:55.240 --> 00:13:00.159 promote general welfare, which means maintaining your currency and stuff 195 00:13:00.200 --> 00:13:04.399 like that. But provide for the common defense. And meanwhile, 196 00:13:05.600 --> 00:13:11.000 as has been stated so superbly by Donald Trump and 197 00:13:11.000 --> 00:13:16.240 the others in the administration, it's time to stop defending 198 00:13:16.360 --> 00:13:19.399 other countries' borders and start defending our own. 199 00:13:19.879 --> 00:13:20.080 Well. 200 00:13:20.320 --> 00:13:27.279 It also is exposing how for decades our federal leaders, 201 00:13:27.720 --> 00:13:31.679 leaders in air quotes, have been hiding behind all these 202 00:13:31.759 --> 00:13:35.039 rules and regulations to basically do nothing. So their answer 203 00:13:35.039 --> 00:13:37.440 to every problem is, well, we're going to get together 204 00:13:37.480 --> 00:13:40.360 and have a discussion about forming a committee that might 205 00:13:40.399 --> 00:13:43.759 consider the establishment of a task force to eventually get 206 00:13:43.759 --> 00:13:46.759 around to think about forming another committee. 207 00:13:46.879 --> 00:13:51.240 We're ten thousand people a day flowing freely, unvetted through 208 00:13:51.279 --> 00:13:55.799 our southern border with Mexico. Pete, I know, and may orcus, 209 00:13:56.279 --> 00:13:59.120 there's no crisis. Our board border is secure. 210 00:14:00.960 --> 00:14:07.120 Talk about oh my gosh, secure for sanity for insanity, 211 00:14:07.200 --> 00:14:08.600 you know, yeah. 212 00:14:08.360 --> 00:14:12.320 Yeah, insecure is what it was. Yeah, anyway, please continue, Well, 213 00:14:12.360 --> 00:14:13.960 you know, we're approaching. 214 00:14:14.000 --> 00:14:17.240 According to I was watching the weekend talk shows, Greg 215 00:14:17.240 --> 00:14:20.919 Abbott said, we're approaching deportations of a thousand a day 216 00:14:21.559 --> 00:14:23.759 and it's just going to keep growing and then you're 217 00:14:23.759 --> 00:14:26.679 going to see self deportation. But the main thing is 218 00:14:26.720 --> 00:14:29.440 the people that are being deported. It's it's a shock. 219 00:14:29.519 --> 00:14:31.879 I think most Americans are waking up to the idea 220 00:14:32.360 --> 00:14:35.480 what these people were here among us. We're talking about pedophiles, 221 00:14:35.960 --> 00:14:42.159 child rapists, murderers, people who have repeated recidibus criminals who 222 00:14:42.200 --> 00:14:47.519 have caused all kinds of mayhem in communities and terrorized 223 00:14:47.600 --> 00:14:51.399 people and killed people, and they've been allowed to just 224 00:14:51.519 --> 00:14:52.879 keep going back to do it. 225 00:14:53.840 --> 00:14:55.759 And finally they're on the planes. 226 00:14:56.720 --> 00:14:59.240 Yeah, finally they're on the planes going out instead of 227 00:14:59.240 --> 00:15:02.879 on the planes come in. That was crucial when Donald 228 00:15:02.879 --> 00:15:05.559 Trump one of his first executive orders was to end 229 00:15:05.559 --> 00:15:09.559 that CPB app. Yeah, the phone app that people were 230 00:15:09.600 --> 00:15:12.120 just getting on planes and being flown all over the 231 00:15:12.200 --> 00:15:15.519 country is so funny. We're all going to have to 232 00:15:15.559 --> 00:15:18.360 have a real ideed to fly after May and twenty 233 00:15:18.399 --> 00:15:21.919 twenty five in Kentucky and many other states around the country. 234 00:15:22.879 --> 00:15:26.840 But these illegals can fly anywhere they want to with 235 00:15:26.960 --> 00:15:28.399 no identification at all. 236 00:15:28.639 --> 00:15:30.879 Yeah, how what the hell does that work? And try 237 00:15:30.879 --> 00:15:31.720 and figure this one. 238 00:15:31.799 --> 00:15:36.440 It just is mind blowing that for all that garbage 239 00:15:36.480 --> 00:15:39.039 we went through with the COVID protocols where you couldn't 240 00:15:39.039 --> 00:15:41.559 fly unless you could prove that you'd taken the JAB, 241 00:15:41.960 --> 00:15:44.120 where you had to go through steps and layers of 242 00:15:44.480 --> 00:15:49.879 personalize identification. But let's just open the border to millions 243 00:15:49.919 --> 00:15:52.759 of people who don't have any vaccinations, not just. 244 00:15:52.759 --> 00:15:54.360 COVID, and then any vaccine. 245 00:15:54.399 --> 00:15:57.000 And then let's end Title forty two, which was a 246 00:15:57.039 --> 00:16:01.559 COVID era safeguard, right been put in place, isn't it just. 247 00:16:01.919 --> 00:16:06.279 The insanity has been breathtaking, and it's so refreshing to 248 00:16:06.320 --> 00:16:09.759 see a leader in the White House again, right. I mean, 249 00:16:09.799 --> 00:16:14.840 the contrast with Biden is a pretty low bar because 250 00:16:14.840 --> 00:16:17.759 he is basically not even there, taking naps all day. 251 00:16:18.399 --> 00:16:22.399 We don't know who was in charge, probably Obama and Jill, but. 252 00:16:21.679 --> 00:16:22.559 But he was. 253 00:16:22.679 --> 00:16:25.720 He was the president in name only. 254 00:16:25.840 --> 00:16:29.440 Yeah, there you go, you heard a rhinos. He was 255 00:16:29.480 --> 00:16:34.639 a po oh, no kidding. But the contrast of Trump, 256 00:16:34.960 --> 00:16:38.279 even to all the presidents who came before. I think 257 00:16:38.320 --> 00:16:41.759 that's why we saw so much discomfort among people like GW. 258 00:16:42.000 --> 00:16:47.720 Bush at the inauguration, awkward body language, just said he 259 00:16:47.759 --> 00:16:48.879 was not happy to be there. 260 00:16:48.919 --> 00:16:50.159 He didn't like what he was hearing. 261 00:16:50.440 --> 00:16:54.519 But the contrast makes all these other leaders look like 262 00:16:54.600 --> 00:16:57.600 total slackers and incompetent. 263 00:16:58.559 --> 00:17:01.080 Well, you know, if you were, if you're a career 264 00:17:01.200 --> 00:17:07.880 warmonger just for the sake of the almighty dollar, Like 265 00:17:08.400 --> 00:17:13.960 someone could say, George W. Bush, you know, considering who 266 00:17:14.039 --> 00:17:18.400 his vice president was. Yeah, and is and and is 267 00:17:18.480 --> 00:17:22.960 still a thorn in the side of people who want 268 00:17:23.039 --> 00:17:26.319 us to concentrate on America first instead of all these 269 00:17:26.359 --> 00:17:31.640 foreign wars spending all this money. I don't know if 270 00:17:31.680 --> 00:17:35.880 you if you saw the and I didn't watch it 271 00:17:36.519 --> 00:17:40.640 at the time. I saw clips from it afterwards Face 272 00:17:40.720 --> 00:17:41.559 the Nation with JD. 273 00:17:41.720 --> 00:17:42.240 Vanchist. 274 00:17:42.480 --> 00:17:47.240 Yeah yeah, some clips, Yeah, really good. I mean, he 275 00:17:47.319 --> 00:17:49.440 is so fast on his feet, but he's so he's 276 00:17:49.440 --> 00:17:50.559 such a gentleman. 277 00:17:50.200 --> 00:17:52.319 About it, right, That's that's the key. 278 00:17:52.480 --> 00:17:56.359 He's never insulting her, hostile, or he just comes across 279 00:17:56.519 --> 00:17:59.839 very patient. But let me set you straight. For example, 280 00:18:00.319 --> 00:18:03.400 you quoted me, but you didn't offer the whole quote. 281 00:18:03.519 --> 00:18:06.440 You didn't include the part where I mentioned gray areas 282 00:18:06.480 --> 00:18:11.519 around pardons. I mean, it's really fun and refreshing to 283 00:18:11.559 --> 00:18:14.440 see that. And maybe, for the first time in many, 284 00:18:14.559 --> 00:18:20.039 many decades, I actually have hoped that maybe our traditional 285 00:18:20.079 --> 00:18:23.240 media is getting a wake up call and may make 286 00:18:23.359 --> 00:18:28.440 some changes to be more balanced and less totally lopsided 287 00:18:28.519 --> 00:18:29.079 for the left. 288 00:18:29.680 --> 00:18:31.440 I think you agree. I know you agree with me. 289 00:18:31.759 --> 00:18:34.359 I don't worship at the throne of Donald Trump, right, 290 00:18:34.440 --> 00:18:36.480 I worship at the throne of Jesus Christ. 291 00:18:36.279 --> 00:18:40.240 Amen, brother, But don't put your faith in princes of 292 00:18:40.279 --> 00:18:45.160 this world. No, no, the kingdoms or principalities, because God 293 00:18:45.240 --> 00:18:47.039 is over all of that. Absolutely. 294 00:18:48.119 --> 00:18:52.319 However, it's a heck of a nice Like you said, 295 00:18:52.359 --> 00:18:55.839 what a refreshing change to have. And you know what 296 00:18:55.880 --> 00:18:59.279 he's doing exactly what he did the first time, the 297 00:18:59.359 --> 00:19:03.519 first term. He is trying to fulfill his campaign problems. 298 00:19:03.599 --> 00:19:04.559 After he's sworn in. 299 00:19:04.559 --> 00:19:08.839 He keeps his promises. Shock, how can you disagree with that. 300 00:19:08.920 --> 00:19:12.519 You may disagree with the agenda, but you can't disagree 301 00:19:12.519 --> 00:19:17.319 with his just his vibrance and the fact that he 302 00:19:17.400 --> 00:19:19.000 tells you something he means it. 303 00:19:19.240 --> 00:19:23.400 Yeah, And that's what that's why he gets that's why 304 00:19:23.400 --> 00:19:27.039 he gets responses within a matter of hours or minutes 305 00:19:27.079 --> 00:19:29.920 from the President of concause they believe him when he 306 00:19:29.960 --> 00:19:32.279 says when he says he's going to do something, he 307 00:19:32.359 --> 00:19:35.279 darn well doesn't. And you know something, I think one 308 00:19:35.279 --> 00:19:39.200 of the things that really surprised me was when Mitch McConnell. 309 00:19:39.240 --> 00:19:42.440 This is big for our area because miss McConnell's been 310 00:19:42.839 --> 00:19:46.599 in the Senate forever and represented Kentucky, and we know 311 00:19:46.759 --> 00:19:49.519 him well in our region as being one of our 312 00:19:50.079 --> 00:19:54.240 local delegation to the Senate House. And when he voted 313 00:19:54.279 --> 00:19:58.279 against Pete Hegseth, I thought, you can you can almost 314 00:19:58.839 --> 00:20:01.400 imagine some of the nick names and comments Trump would 315 00:20:01.400 --> 00:20:04.519 come up with to respond to that. When he was asked, 316 00:20:04.839 --> 00:20:08.480 what do you think about Senator McConnell voting against the 317 00:20:08.480 --> 00:20:11.720 nomination of Pete Hegseth, And the old Trump would have 318 00:20:11.759 --> 00:20:14.720 been ready with a nickname, an in turtle or something. Yeah, 319 00:20:14.880 --> 00:20:17.000 And what do you say this time? He said, I 320 00:20:17.039 --> 00:20:19.480 don't have any comment on that. The important thing is 321 00:20:19.519 --> 00:20:20.240 to win, right. 322 00:20:20.960 --> 00:20:24.680 That was so cool. That is a new my presidential 323 00:20:25.000 --> 00:20:28.480 Donald Trump. My revenge will be success. 324 00:20:28.640 --> 00:20:31.000 There you go, all right, Peter Bronson here for the 325 00:20:31.000 --> 00:20:34.039 next half hour, will take a little quick break and 326 00:20:34.160 --> 00:20:37.240 come back with more of our conversation on this nightcap 327 00:20:37.359 --> 00:20:42.319 on this Monday evening, the last of January, on seven hundred, 328 00:20:42.519 --> 00:20:48.319 WLW his thoughts on politics and immigration and many other 329 00:20:48.400 --> 00:20:53.160 things books, because he is a wonderful writer. His latest 330 00:20:53.759 --> 00:20:57.359 is called Promised Land, How the Midwest Was Won, which 331 00:20:57.440 --> 00:21:02.160 is a page turning history class on how this area 332 00:21:02.279 --> 00:21:06.720 was formed back in the late seventeen hundreds. Yes, thank you, 333 00:21:06.839 --> 00:21:11.599 how it was settled. And it was a pretty unsettling 334 00:21:11.680 --> 00:21:15.920 time to be settling. Something very frightening. Peter Bronson back 335 00:21:15.960 --> 00:21:19.839 with us, and Pete wanted to ask you maybe a 336 00:21:19.880 --> 00:21:24.759 couple more things about Trump and the nominations. Steve Bannon, 337 00:21:25.599 --> 00:21:29.160 and you know whether you have believed in the veracity 338 00:21:29.160 --> 00:21:31.400 of a Steve Banner or not. Reported on Rumble this 339 00:21:31.519 --> 00:21:35.400 morning that the mayor of Chicago, who has vowed in 340 00:21:35.480 --> 00:21:41.440 the face of his own citizens to ignore ice and 341 00:21:41.480 --> 00:21:44.640 their age to get illegal criminals out of his city, 342 00:21:45.640 --> 00:21:53.599 supposedly was releasing these illegals who had committed crimes and 343 00:21:53.640 --> 00:21:57.160 were in jail in Chicago, releasing them from the jails 344 00:21:57.160 --> 00:21:59.359 and letting them out on the streets. Some Ice can't 345 00:21:59.400 --> 00:22:03.720 find them. How he's obstructing. If that's true, I think 346 00:22:03.759 --> 00:22:08.640 that he is guilty of a federal felony. 347 00:22:08.759 --> 00:22:11.519 Yeah, for aiding and betting and obstructing justice. 348 00:22:11.599 --> 00:22:16.400 Yeah, ironically some of the same charges obstructing official business 349 00:22:16.400 --> 00:22:17.440 and obstructing justice. 350 00:22:17.440 --> 00:22:19.640 That's what they filed against the January sixth. 351 00:22:20.000 --> 00:22:24.200 Yes, somebody may need to be made an example of 352 00:22:25.720 --> 00:22:29.599 Homan is going to follow up on his promises that 353 00:22:29.720 --> 00:22:30.359 if you do that. 354 00:22:31.519 --> 00:22:33.319 I'd love to see it. I don't think they've got 355 00:22:33.359 --> 00:22:35.079 a single cell big enough for JB. 356 00:22:35.200 --> 00:22:40.880 Pritzker though, Yeah, he needs a double sell Well, yeah, 357 00:22:40.920 --> 00:22:42.759 I'm sure that you could do a lot with that. 358 00:22:43.079 --> 00:22:46.920 But you know, one of the things that Holman made, 359 00:22:47.440 --> 00:22:51.559 the iceman Tom Holman made very clear is that, look, 360 00:22:51.559 --> 00:22:53.680 you're doing everybody a favor if you let us into 361 00:22:53.680 --> 00:22:56.559 the jails, because it's safer for us, it's safer for 362 00:22:56.640 --> 00:23:00.240 the fugitive we're taking into custody, and it's pay for 363 00:23:00.519 --> 00:23:02.880 the community. Because if these guys are out in the 364 00:23:02.920 --> 00:23:06.359 community and they're surrounded by their friends and they decided 365 00:23:06.359 --> 00:23:08.920 to make a stand or to fight back, who's going 366 00:23:09.000 --> 00:23:10.960 to suffer stray. 367 00:23:10.680 --> 00:23:13.000 Bullets people in the community. 368 00:23:13.640 --> 00:23:19.000 I mean, this is so mentally backwards to do that 369 00:23:19.079 --> 00:23:22.559 kind of thing, to turn criminals onto the streets because 370 00:23:22.599 --> 00:23:24.599 you think they're better. Would they do that for you 371 00:23:24.680 --> 00:23:29.359 and I if the federal agencies were if we were fugitives. 372 00:23:29.640 --> 00:23:32.720 Let's say you're a January sixth protester and they had 373 00:23:32.759 --> 00:23:35.279 you in jail on a speeding ticket or to duy 374 00:23:35.759 --> 00:23:38.000 and the Feds say, hey, we know who that person is. 375 00:23:38.000 --> 00:23:38.920 We want to come pick them up. 376 00:23:38.920 --> 00:23:43.359 Would they turn that person loose because we don't agree 377 00:23:43.359 --> 00:23:44.400 with your federal policy? 378 00:23:44.839 --> 00:23:45.039 No? 379 00:23:46.359 --> 00:23:49.200 Well, I mean January sixth, there's been eighty two year 380 00:23:49.240 --> 00:23:53.400 old grandmothers right committed no violent acts on January sixth, 381 00:23:53.400 --> 00:23:57.680 twenty twenty one, and that are still in prison. That's 382 00:23:57.759 --> 00:24:00.799 just outrageous and the whole justice system on that. 383 00:24:01.640 --> 00:24:03.799 One of the things JD Events was referring to about 384 00:24:03.799 --> 00:24:07.920 the gray areas is how the prosecutors acted on ethically. 385 00:24:08.319 --> 00:24:13.640 They withheld exculpatory evidence. They railroaded these people with favorable 386 00:24:13.720 --> 00:24:16.960 judges who were willing to give them the most unbelievably 387 00:24:16.960 --> 00:24:19.240 harsh access to attorneys. 388 00:24:19.279 --> 00:24:19.880 It's crazy. 389 00:24:19.920 --> 00:24:23.680 They were denied the ability to defend themselves on one 390 00:24:24.480 --> 00:24:29.200 basic US right, self defense right. They were denied that, 391 00:24:29.440 --> 00:24:32.319 and they were denied the argument in court that they 392 00:24:32.319 --> 00:24:35.559 were there to exercise their First Amendment rights of protest. 393 00:24:36.160 --> 00:24:38.960 The judge wouldn't even let them resort to those basic 394 00:24:40.480 --> 00:24:42.200 rights that are promised in our Bill of Rights. 395 00:24:42.240 --> 00:24:44.839 Well, this is a reason why Washington, DC can never 396 00:24:45.119 --> 00:24:47.359 become a state of this country. 397 00:24:47.400 --> 00:24:50.440 Really, really, I'd rather have Greenland or Canada. Oh yeah, 398 00:24:50.640 --> 00:24:51.640 Canada would be great. 399 00:24:51.799 --> 00:24:54.880 Yeah, you know, I'd like to go skiing with that, 400 00:24:55.000 --> 00:25:00.640 having to use a passport, all kinds of things. Oh sure, sure. 401 00:25:02.279 --> 00:25:06.279 But I have talked to many J six ers on 402 00:25:06.319 --> 00:25:11.680 this program and have heard the detailed accounts of the 403 00:25:11.799 --> 00:25:16.359 obvious agents that were embedded in the crowd trying to gin. 404 00:25:16.359 --> 00:25:19.319 Stuff up, something like seventeen of them at least, and 405 00:25:19.440 --> 00:25:22.559 some of them went into the capitol, and some of 406 00:25:22.559 --> 00:25:25.039 the footage indicates that they were not only in there, 407 00:25:25.039 --> 00:25:29.920 but they were beckoning, saying come on in, encouraging these 408 00:25:29.920 --> 00:25:31.039 citizens to come in too. 409 00:25:31.160 --> 00:25:35.240 The only Capitol police that were injured, and they talk 410 00:25:35.319 --> 00:25:40.680 about hospitalized Capitol police, some for like scrapes and cuts 411 00:25:40.759 --> 00:25:45.640 or whatever. The only ones that were assaulted were assaulted 412 00:25:45.640 --> 00:25:48.039 by people trying to defend themselves that's right, from these 413 00:25:49.000 --> 00:25:50.759 strong arm, bootstrapped tactics. 414 00:25:50.880 --> 00:25:51.920 That's what I was hearing. 415 00:25:52.599 --> 00:25:57.000 I mean, one woman was beaten savagely, and the man 416 00:25:57.000 --> 00:25:59.599 who stepped in to protect her and took the blows 417 00:26:00.480 --> 00:26:06.359 from a female Capitol police officer was prosecuted assaulting. 418 00:26:07.119 --> 00:26:11.720 For assaulting, I talked to his wife. Isn't that incredible? 419 00:26:11.880 --> 00:26:15.079 And I hope he's out now thanks to Trump's EO. Yeah, 420 00:26:15.400 --> 00:26:16.519 I think most of them are. 421 00:26:16.799 --> 00:26:21.000 And God bless them, I mean, for everything that they've 422 00:26:21.039 --> 00:26:25.839 been through. Just it's a sad chapter in American history, it. 423 00:26:25.839 --> 00:26:28.119 Really is, and we're only beginning to see the beginning 424 00:26:28.119 --> 00:26:31.920 of it. I think the more is going to come, 425 00:26:32.079 --> 00:26:34.359 and it's going to be much worse than people expect. 426 00:26:34.880 --> 00:26:35.359 Yeah. 427 00:26:35.599 --> 00:26:39.119 Yeah, I think it's a lot worse than people know 428 00:26:39.319 --> 00:26:42.599 right now. Yeah, just because of the some of the 429 00:26:42.640 --> 00:26:46.079 inside stuff I've gotten from the people who have been 430 00:26:46.119 --> 00:26:49.119 to jail, the people who were on the ground that day. 431 00:26:49.559 --> 00:26:52.279 Oh, in so many areas, there's so much we're gonna 432 00:26:52.359 --> 00:26:54.519 we're going to be able to not learn. I mean, 433 00:26:54.680 --> 00:26:58.680 just look at what happened first day. John Ratcliffe releases 434 00:26:58.720 --> 00:27:01.799 the report that was hidden by Biden that said yes, 435 00:27:01.880 --> 00:27:05.079 the the lab leak in Wuhan in the cause of COVID. 436 00:27:05.200 --> 00:27:08.799 I know, and remember not that far back when you 437 00:27:08.880 --> 00:27:12.839 were not allowed to say that you're a conspiracy theorist, yes. 438 00:27:12.680 --> 00:27:17.400 Yes, and racist you were you know you ha yeah, 439 00:27:17.680 --> 00:27:21.240 all of China. You hated Chinese? Yes, yes, remember when 440 00:27:21.920 --> 00:27:26.559 Trump called it the Let's uh, let's make this very 441 00:27:26.680 --> 00:27:27.240 very clear. 442 00:27:28.359 --> 00:27:31.000 There are the Chinese people, and then there is the 443 00:27:31.000 --> 00:27:36.960 Communist Chinese Party who many members are Yes, absolutely Chinese people, 444 00:27:37.480 --> 00:27:43.799 but there is that's that's where the similarities end, you know, uh. 445 00:27:44.000 --> 00:27:46.119 And and you have to be a sheep in China 446 00:27:46.720 --> 00:27:49.519 or you were thrown in a gulag or worse. 447 00:27:49.880 --> 00:27:50.160 Yes. 448 00:27:50.519 --> 00:27:58.279 And the the work camps are horrific, the places where 449 00:27:58.319 --> 00:28:02.400 a lot of these products that we buy so cheaply 450 00:28:02.519 --> 00:28:06.680 at Walmart are made in work camps where political prisoners 451 00:28:06.680 --> 00:28:11.599 from Falluon Gong and other organizations, people who are daring 452 00:28:11.680 --> 00:28:14.240 enough to dare to go out on the street and 453 00:28:14.240 --> 00:28:19.160 hand out Muslims, people handed out Bibles, Christians thrown into 454 00:28:19.160 --> 00:28:22.400 these camps and work to death. And in many cases, 455 00:28:23.359 --> 00:28:27.000 the paper clips and the little toys and gadgets you 456 00:28:27.079 --> 00:28:30.319 get so cheap on Amazon they're all made in China. 457 00:28:31.119 --> 00:28:35.079 Those are coming from those work by slave labor. Yeah, yeah, 458 00:28:35.119 --> 00:28:39.200 and you know we're we're so you know, with our 459 00:28:39.240 --> 00:28:41.519 own history in this country. You know, slavery is such 460 00:28:41.559 --> 00:28:48.519 a touchy subject. Yes, but for conveniences, for convenience, if 461 00:28:48.559 --> 00:28:51.160 it's slavery and China will that's on the other side 462 00:28:51.200 --> 00:28:53.039 of the world and it's not anybody we know. 463 00:28:53.279 --> 00:28:55.519 Yeah, so yeah, I want to buy a ballpoint pen 464 00:28:55.640 --> 00:28:57.440 for fifteen cents, so. 465 00:29:00.079 --> 00:29:00.279 Read. 466 00:29:00.279 --> 00:29:02.440 Don't bother me about that exactly. 467 00:29:02.519 --> 00:29:05.720 Peter Bronson is our guest for the balance of this 468 00:29:05.839 --> 00:29:07.359 half hour. I'll tell you what, Pete, I want to 469 00:29:07.400 --> 00:29:09.400 take a little break and we'll come back and finish. 470 00:29:09.799 --> 00:29:10.839 And since we've. 471 00:29:12.079 --> 00:29:14.759 Talked a little bit about books, we'll talk a little 472 00:29:14.799 --> 00:29:18.240 bit more about books as we continue. And they're really 473 00:29:18.279 --> 00:29:23.680 important books that everyone should read. In our humble opinions 474 00:29:23.839 --> 00:29:27.000 and in your humble opinion, it's The Nightcap on seven 475 00:29:27.079 --> 00:29:32.759 hundred WLW for Pete's sake, it's Pete Bronson also the 476 00:29:32.759 --> 00:29:33.400 title of one. 477 00:29:33.279 --> 00:29:40.319 Of Pete's books. Right, speaking of books, let's talk about 478 00:29:40.799 --> 00:29:46.319 an important book, an important book that we feel that 479 00:29:46.400 --> 00:29:47.480 everyone should read. 480 00:29:49.880 --> 00:29:53.039 And you know, if you can't get to it every day. 481 00:29:53.079 --> 00:29:56.640 Well that's a shame, but at least on a regular basis. 482 00:29:57.480 --> 00:30:00.839 The Bible the biggest selling book of all time by 483 00:30:00.880 --> 00:30:03.960 a long shot. So the New York Times has nothing 484 00:30:04.000 --> 00:30:07.400 to do with this. God has everything to do with it. 485 00:30:07.640 --> 00:30:07.759 Right. 486 00:30:08.319 --> 00:30:12.519 It is the greatest story ever told, and it includes 487 00:30:13.079 --> 00:30:16.119 in our Christian Bibles the New Testament, the New Covenant 488 00:30:16.200 --> 00:30:20.799 with God through the people, through Jesus Christ, and his 489 00:30:20.920 --> 00:30:22.680 coming to earth as God's Son. 490 00:30:24.039 --> 00:30:26.039 I've been noticing, just because. 491 00:30:27.240 --> 00:30:29.480 I haven't spent I haven't dwelt a whole lot of 492 00:30:29.519 --> 00:30:34.400 time in Psalms in the old but my favorite, how 493 00:30:34.720 --> 00:30:38.960 beautiful Psalms is, and how comforting, how comforting, and also 494 00:30:39.079 --> 00:30:43.079 how important it is as instructions full of wisdom for 495 00:30:43.160 --> 00:30:45.240 how to live, full of life instructions. 496 00:30:45.279 --> 00:30:46.119 You ever heard that thing? 497 00:30:46.440 --> 00:30:50.039 Bible spells basic constructions before leaving Earth. 498 00:30:50.480 --> 00:30:52.279 Oh that's good. I like that. 499 00:30:53.240 --> 00:30:58.680 But I read something this weekend and just Psalms one one, 500 00:30:58.720 --> 00:31:02.680 and it talks about out not sitting on a council 501 00:31:02.720 --> 00:31:07.279 of mockers, not yeah, you know, And I think about 502 00:31:07.319 --> 00:31:09.599 all of the things I have said over the years, 503 00:31:09.960 --> 00:31:14.200 and all of the people I've gone along attacking other people. 504 00:31:15.559 --> 00:31:15.920 For too. 505 00:31:15.920 --> 00:31:19.759 It's an editorial writer and columnists, believe me. Yes, I 506 00:31:19.799 --> 00:31:23.359 mean was like one of the major tools in my belt. 507 00:31:24.079 --> 00:31:25.000 Don't be a mocker. 508 00:31:25.319 --> 00:31:29.640 Uh, don't don't be defamatory towards other people. I mean 509 00:31:29.880 --> 00:31:33.200 that whole message. And here's here's a good message too. 510 00:31:33.319 --> 00:31:35.359 And it can get lost if you're not thinking about 511 00:31:35.400 --> 00:31:36.599 if you're not cognizant of. 512 00:31:36.799 --> 00:31:39.039 And here's the great message that so many people are missing. 513 00:31:39.039 --> 00:31:42.359 If they don't, they don't get into this wisdom is that, Yeah, 514 00:31:42.519 --> 00:31:45.480 I've mocked a lot of people, but I'm forgiven. 515 00:31:46.200 --> 00:31:46.440 Yeah. 516 00:31:47.200 --> 00:31:51.519 Yeah, I've made mistakes, but I'm forgiven in and over 517 00:31:51.519 --> 00:31:55.119 and over and over. Indeed, in the past, stuff that 518 00:31:55.160 --> 00:31:58.960 I did, I'm forgiven. Today, things that I do, I'm forgiven, 519 00:31:59.079 --> 00:32:03.359 and tomorrow it's Hey, could there be a better message? 520 00:32:03.599 --> 00:32:03.799 Yeah? 521 00:32:04.039 --> 00:32:08.759 As a Christian, you're right. It's if you believe that 522 00:32:08.880 --> 00:32:12.920 Jesus Christ is the Son of God, and you repent 523 00:32:13.039 --> 00:32:16.880 for your sins and you attempt to follow him. And 524 00:32:16.920 --> 00:32:21.240 it's an attempt. I don't think that any one among. 525 00:32:21.000 --> 00:32:24.799 Us who are human beings, have ever been true every 526 00:32:24.839 --> 00:32:27.519 step of the way on the journey. Yes, many people 527 00:32:27.519 --> 00:32:29.720 have come close. Well, you know that's why we I 528 00:32:29.720 --> 00:32:33.359 guess we have saints and people like Sister Teresa and 529 00:32:33.359 --> 00:32:37.000 and you know, there are a few examples of that. 530 00:32:37.400 --> 00:32:42.279 But the path, very often, while it's a narrow, is 531 00:32:42.759 --> 00:32:46.039 never straight, and to walk it completely is not an 532 00:32:46.039 --> 00:32:47.839 easy thing to do, no matter how much you pray 533 00:32:47.920 --> 00:32:48.599 or read your Bible. 534 00:32:48.799 --> 00:32:51.519 Well I would go in this direction, though, which is okay. 535 00:32:51.559 --> 00:32:53.599 We started by talking about the Bible being the best 536 00:32:53.599 --> 00:32:56.160 selling book of all time. So what is the best 537 00:32:56.160 --> 00:32:59.000 selling book in the Bible. It's the Book of John. 538 00:33:00.000 --> 00:33:02.920 Look of John has been reprinted and circulated more than 539 00:33:02.960 --> 00:33:05.960 any other book in the Bible because it's the gospel 540 00:33:06.000 --> 00:33:06.400 of love. 541 00:33:06.880 --> 00:33:10.799 But it's also the gospel that is so accessible for people. 542 00:33:10.599 --> 00:33:13.920 Who are just kicking the tires and getting their toe wet. 543 00:33:14.079 --> 00:33:15.799 Sure the Bible, this is the one that is the 544 00:33:15.839 --> 00:33:16.680 most accessible in. 545 00:33:16.720 --> 00:33:18.559 That I mean that one verse. How many times has 546 00:33:18.640 --> 00:33:21.559 that been reprinted? John three sixteen exactly. Well, here's one 547 00:33:21.599 --> 00:33:25.359 of my favorites. In John one, it says, to all 548 00:33:25.440 --> 00:33:29.000 who believe in the name of the Son of God Jesus, 549 00:33:29.519 --> 00:33:33.160 he gave the right to be children of God. Well, 550 00:33:33.160 --> 00:33:35.799 that's pretty easy I mean, that's where's the fine print. 551 00:33:35.880 --> 00:33:39.880 There is no fine print, but it's awfully hard for 552 00:33:39.960 --> 00:33:42.599 a lot of us. And it was really hard for 553 00:33:42.640 --> 00:33:45.319 me for a long time to put my pride aside 554 00:33:45.359 --> 00:33:47.400 and get out of my own way so that I 555 00:33:47.440 --> 00:33:51.759 could surrender my control that I thought I had, which 556 00:33:51.799 --> 00:33:54.640 was just an illusion, and give that control up to 557 00:33:55.319 --> 00:33:59.839 Christ because he's in control anyway. But a lot of people, 558 00:34:00.039 --> 00:34:03.759 we all have that stumbling block, which is I'm in control, 559 00:34:04.079 --> 00:34:06.279 and unless I take care of it and do this, 560 00:34:07.039 --> 00:34:08.599 it's not going to come out. I trip over it 561 00:34:08.599 --> 00:34:10.920 all the time, Peter, We always do, and we keep 562 00:34:10.960 --> 00:34:15.320 reverting back to that. But let me circle back to 563 00:34:15.360 --> 00:34:17.079 all who believe the right. 564 00:34:17.679 --> 00:34:20.159 How about the verse from Second Corinthians. It's very simple, 565 00:34:20.159 --> 00:34:23.039 it's very short. Grace is sufficient for you. 566 00:34:23.079 --> 00:34:25.480 And there you go. Grace is sufficient. 567 00:34:26.119 --> 00:34:28.599 The grace of God is bigger than your sin. Just 568 00:34:28.719 --> 00:34:33.960 give it up, relinquished control in your everyday life, and 569 00:34:34.079 --> 00:34:36.239 it will be easier to walk that path we were 570 00:34:36.239 --> 00:34:40.440 talking about. Yes, as far as other books on your 571 00:34:40.639 --> 00:34:43.960 is there anything that you've read recently that has tripped 572 00:34:43.960 --> 00:34:44.880 to trigger. 573 00:34:44.800 --> 00:34:47.480 Or oh, I'm reading one right now by Eric Larson 574 00:34:47.559 --> 00:34:49.719 it's called The Splendid in the Vile and it's all 575 00:34:49.760 --> 00:34:53.480 about Churchill during the Blitz of London. Oh wow, and 576 00:34:53.519 --> 00:34:56.079 it's pretty good. One of the things I'm seeing is 577 00:34:56.119 --> 00:35:00.599 a really cool parallel between Churchill and Trump. Urill did 578 00:35:00.639 --> 00:35:04.559 when he became Prime minister. He was called a crude barbarian. 579 00:35:04.679 --> 00:35:08.840 He was such an outsider. He didn't fit with Neville 580 00:35:08.920 --> 00:35:11.920 Chamberlain and the appeasers who wanted to make a deal 581 00:35:11.960 --> 00:35:12.559 with Germany. 582 00:35:12.960 --> 00:35:15.199 He was too brash, he was all the things they 583 00:35:15.199 --> 00:35:16.039 said about Trump. 584 00:35:16.599 --> 00:35:19.039 In fact, one of his critics even compared him to 585 00:35:19.079 --> 00:35:19.920 some of the Nazis. 586 00:35:20.840 --> 00:35:21.960 So it was. 587 00:35:22.079 --> 00:35:25.840 Amazing when you're it's the last thing you are, they 588 00:35:25.880 --> 00:35:27.639 call you what what. 589 00:35:27.840 --> 00:35:29.920 They're actually supporting exactly. 590 00:35:30.400 --> 00:35:33.239 And what he did is put he put the government 591 00:35:33.840 --> 00:35:36.960 what we'd call now warp speed or overdrive. And they 592 00:35:37.000 --> 00:35:41.400 said it was suddenly not unusual to see these stuffy 593 00:35:41.480 --> 00:35:45.440 old men in their shirts and tails, the government officials 594 00:35:45.880 --> 00:35:48.960 running down the halls because Churchill had asked for a 595 00:35:49.000 --> 00:35:52.639 report and he wanted it now. And I just get 596 00:35:52.639 --> 00:35:54.880 that picture in my mind, and that's what I see 597 00:35:55.039 --> 00:35:58.360 in our government now, which is when these guys when 598 00:35:58.360 --> 00:36:00.760 his cabinet takes over, you're going to see a lot 599 00:36:00.760 --> 00:36:03.519 of stuffy people. If they're not out hitting the bricks, 600 00:36:04.239 --> 00:36:06.320 they're going to be running down the halls to get 601 00:36:06.320 --> 00:36:10.000 these things done, or they will be on the bricks exactly. 602 00:36:11.079 --> 00:36:14.199 He has a lot of experience firing people. Yeah, he's 603 00:36:14.199 --> 00:36:16.880 good at it, and he doesn't mind doing it on TV. 604 00:36:17.159 --> 00:36:22.039 No, no, yeah, you know when he says things that 605 00:36:22.119 --> 00:36:28.159 he says that are really much more mannerally and courteous 606 00:36:28.199 --> 00:36:30.519 than he used to be. When he talks to the 607 00:36:30.519 --> 00:36:33.880 mayor of Los Angeles, for example, or confronts Gavin Newsom, 608 00:36:34.000 --> 00:36:37.440 or talks directly to people in Congress who are his opponents, 609 00:36:38.239 --> 00:36:41.320 he is more courteous. But if you can see what 610 00:36:41.400 --> 00:36:43.960 he's doing right there on camera, can you only imagine 611 00:36:44.000 --> 00:36:46.400 what he says behind in his office. 612 00:36:46.920 --> 00:36:48.039 Oh yeah. 613 00:36:48.119 --> 00:36:51.840 And the people that are trying to resist this right now, 614 00:36:51.880 --> 00:36:53.039 they don't know what to do. 615 00:36:53.119 --> 00:36:54.079 Their heads are spinning. 616 00:36:54.440 --> 00:36:57.320 He has flooded the zone, which is a lot like 617 00:36:57.360 --> 00:37:00.880 what Obama was doing, introduced a new thing every day 618 00:37:01.119 --> 00:37:03.880 and people can't catch up with it. And now you 619 00:37:03.960 --> 00:37:07.239 have the White House Press cort complaining that they're getting 620 00:37:07.239 --> 00:37:09.800 worn out and they're tired and exhausted. 621 00:37:12.679 --> 00:37:16.480 Well, they've had a cardboard cutout of a president the 622 00:37:16.559 --> 00:37:17.840 last four years. 623 00:37:18.039 --> 00:37:21.639 Yeah, so yeah, they're lazy. Yeah, absolutely, And now what 624 00:37:21.760 --> 00:37:23.719 it went about the federal employees who have to come 625 00:37:23.760 --> 00:37:26.400 back to the office to actually get paid. How about that? 626 00:37:26.880 --> 00:37:29.159 Yeah, he's got all these executive orders. Which one do 627 00:37:29.199 --> 00:37:30.840 I choose that's going to be the end of the world. 628 00:37:33.800 --> 00:37:37.000 Well, I think a good beginning is what we have seen. 629 00:37:37.280 --> 00:37:40.280 Yes, in the first really good Peter Bronson, Such a 630 00:37:40.320 --> 00:37:41.119 pleasure to have you be. 631 00:37:41.239 --> 00:37:43.199 My pleasure to be here, Gary, Jeff I as always, 632 00:37:43.480 --> 00:37:47.239 all right, thanks a lot much more of the nightcap, 633 00:37:47.519 --> 00:37:51.320 including Rick Robinson, my second favorite author. 634 00:37:51.679 --> 00:37:53.000 Hey, give me my regards. 635 00:37:53.159 --> 00:37:57.440 I will definitely come it up next to the term 636 00:37:57.519 --> 00:38:00.519 of forty seven President Donald John Trump. 637 00:38:01.239 --> 00:38:03.679 And there's been a lot going on. I figured, you know, 638 00:38:03.800 --> 00:38:06.880 it'd be nice to have a guy who I have 639 00:38:06.920 --> 00:38:12.440 a fairly decent kind of camaraderie and and we talk 640 00:38:12.519 --> 00:38:17.119 well together. There's good chemistry here. Who was in Washington, 641 00:38:17.199 --> 00:38:17.400 d C. 642 00:38:17.800 --> 00:38:19.920 For a long time, knows a lot of the players, 643 00:38:20.039 --> 00:38:22.480 or knew a lot of the players at his particular 644 00:38:22.519 --> 00:38:26.639 given time, but also knows how Washington works or doesn't, 645 00:38:27.760 --> 00:38:32.159 and so for many Donald J. Trump is a threat 646 00:38:32.559 --> 00:38:37.920 to how Washington works, the usual mechanisms of it. And 647 00:38:38.000 --> 00:38:40.400 for one man to take on this big machine, that's 648 00:38:40.440 --> 00:38:42.480 why he's got backup. That's why he's got people like 649 00:38:42.559 --> 00:38:47.280 Pete se Hegsath who's now been confirmed as a Defense secretary, 650 00:38:48.719 --> 00:38:53.920 and others that are following in his philosophical footsteps. And 651 00:38:54.119 --> 00:38:57.559 also they're committed to carrying out the agenda that he 652 00:38:57.679 --> 00:39:03.599 campaigned on. But again, official Washington still not jazzed about 653 00:39:03.639 --> 00:39:06.760 the changes that are proposed and the changes it may 654 00:39:06.760 --> 00:39:09.039 be coming. And to talk about that and much more. 655 00:39:09.559 --> 00:39:12.679 My friend and lawyer and the author of the book 656 00:39:12.800 --> 00:39:15.159 nineteen sixty eight, we've had him on many times and 657 00:39:15.239 --> 00:39:16.800 back again tonight for this hour. 658 00:39:16.920 --> 00:39:19.480 Rick Robinson, helly, Hey, Gary, Jeff, it is good to 659 00:39:19.480 --> 00:39:21.199 be with you here on the nightcap.

No, 663 00:39:28.679 --> 00:39:31.639 feel like that should be a be a requisite that 664 00:39:31.679 --> 00:39:33.760 if you're going to come on there can drink liquered 665 00:39:33.840 --> 00:39:34.480 up It's. 666 00:39:34.320 --> 00:39:37.960 Just like any other bar.

You can't come to visit me at Huddles 672 00:39:50.719 --> 00:39:53.800 and bring your own bottle of bourbon just because it's 673 00:39:53.920 --> 00:39:55.920 something that you like that we may not have. 674 00:39:56.360 --> 00:39:59.079 You're not allowed to do that in the same way 675 00:39:59.079 --> 00:39:59.400 I thought you. 676 00:40:00.440 --> 00:40:02.559 I mean like it Huddles, you would you would bring 677 00:40:02.599 --> 00:40:05.039 a bottle for me. It just it just doesn't seem right. 678 00:40:05.159 --> 00:40:08.400 Garrett. I am I am first and foremost in that 679 00:40:08.440 --> 00:40:11.679 particular venture a businessman. 680 00:40:11.719 --> 00:40:15.039 I'm a bartender. I'm there to sell booze, not give 681 00:40:15.079 --> 00:40:19.159 it away. I allow you to bring in whatever you 682 00:40:19.239 --> 00:40:20.360 want to off the streets. 683 00:40:20.519 --> 00:40:22.599 That's what we need is a live show, then a Huddles. 684 00:40:24.119 --> 00:40:26.400 I think you know the first hour would. 685 00:40:26.159 --> 00:40:29.159 Be the producer would be hitting the dump button every 686 00:40:29.280 --> 00:40:30.039 five minutes. 687 00:40:30.280 --> 00:40:32.599 Well, the first hour would be okay, second and third 688 00:40:32.639 --> 00:40:33.719 hour get a little testy. 689 00:40:34.760 --> 00:40:38.760 Well, it all depends really on whether you're drinking brown 690 00:40:38.800 --> 00:40:40.039 liquor or white liquor. 691 00:40:40.199 --> 00:40:44.480 Generally, that is right. So tell me about what what. 692 00:40:44.400 --> 00:40:47.599 Are your observations of the first week hitting the ground 693 00:40:47.639 --> 00:40:48.800 running with Donald tr Hitting the. 694 00:40:48.800 --> 00:40:51.360 Ground running with Donald Trump. First off, they did a 695 00:40:51.480 --> 00:40:53.320 whole bunch of stuff. As you know, they went their 696 00:40:53.440 --> 00:40:56.840 order after order after order. I think a lot of 697 00:40:56.880 --> 00:41:04.400 it is substantive and some of it is ceremonial, substantive 698 00:41:04.480 --> 00:41:07.199 for the fact that you know they're want to start 699 00:41:07.559 --> 00:41:11.280 the deportation, substantive that they want to do. The deportations 700 00:41:11.280 --> 00:41:15.199 have already started, that's right, right, And so Columbia just 701 00:41:15.280 --> 00:41:18.679 ACQUI asked after they said they wouldn't take their people back, 702 00:41:18.920 --> 00:41:20.679 we're not going to take them back. Well, you're going 703 00:41:20.760 --> 00:41:23.000 to get that's the point we're going to ding you with. 704 00:41:23.159 --> 00:41:25.400 Are these tariffs really we promise. 705 00:41:25.199 --> 00:41:26.239 We will really? 706 00:41:26.679 --> 00:41:30.679 Okay, maybe then I will take them back all you know. Well, 707 00:41:30.719 --> 00:41:33.360 first off, Garrett, you have let's look at the dynamic 708 00:41:33.400 --> 00:41:35.800 of that particular instance, because that's one of the things 709 00:41:35.800 --> 00:41:38.159 that happened this week that I think is pretty interesting 710 00:41:38.719 --> 00:41:43.639 is that you had diplomacy via Twitter X. I'm sorry, 711 00:41:43.119 --> 00:41:47.639 I'm not with all the cool kids. It's it's we'll 712 00:41:47.639 --> 00:41:51.679 still call it Twitter people. You had an ex diplomacy, 713 00:41:52.199 --> 00:41:56.559 because what you had was you had the Columbia Prime 714 00:41:56.559 --> 00:42:01.639 Minister issuing a statement going not going, to Trump issuing 715 00:42:01.679 --> 00:42:04.679 a statement going twenty five percent seems put like a 716 00:42:04.760 --> 00:42:07.960 round number to me. In the Columbian president did I 717 00:42:08.079 --> 00:42:11.960 say no, No, What I really meant was you're welcome here. 718 00:42:13.199 --> 00:42:17.480 So we're seeing, in fact, what's happening with the teriff 719 00:42:17.519 --> 00:42:21.239 issue is that the threat of the tariff itself and 720 00:42:21.280 --> 00:42:23.880 the threat of using it is what Trump is using 721 00:42:23.920 --> 00:42:27.480 to get his way in many of these these instances, 722 00:42:27.519 --> 00:42:29.880 and it's going to continue to use it. I think 723 00:42:30.280 --> 00:42:33.880 what's happening there Will he actually impose one of these 724 00:42:34.039 --> 00:42:36.079 Well we'll have to wait and see, but that's what 725 00:42:36.159 --> 00:42:40.000 he's using as as bad. Now you know where the 726 00:42:40.239 --> 00:42:46.039 that they only are an export company our country. Oh yeah, yeah, 727 00:42:46.119 --> 00:42:49.519 I mean they used to be just cocaine. But well 728 00:42:49.519 --> 00:42:52.320 but it's one of the few countries we actually have 729 00:42:53.119 --> 00:42:58.519 a trade surplus with. Yeah, you know, so they want 730 00:42:58.559 --> 00:43:02.000 to make sure that, you know, if they suddenly got tariffs, 731 00:43:02.000 --> 00:43:05.199 that would actually be an economy that would probably just collapse. 732 00:43:05.880 --> 00:43:06.280 Yeah. 733 00:43:06.320 --> 00:43:10.159 So, well, of those of the language much like and 734 00:43:10.199 --> 00:43:13.960 it was pointed out much like Canada. Well, I'm all 735 00:43:14.000 --> 00:43:17.440 for Canada becoming a state, and you know why because 736 00:43:17.480 --> 00:43:19.679 I want Gedty Lee to be a United States Senator. 737 00:43:20.719 --> 00:43:24.599 So I mean, can you imagine my wife would be 738 00:43:24.800 --> 00:43:27.000 right there in your corner. She's the biggest Rush fan 739 00:43:27.079 --> 00:43:29.519 to this day. Yes, I know that, and she when 740 00:43:29.559 --> 00:43:31.079 I first brought this up with you, I could hear 741 00:43:31.159 --> 00:43:33.960 in the back ear I'm giggling because it does need 742 00:43:34.000 --> 00:43:36.639 to happen. I mean, we need Getty Lee in the 743 00:43:36.719 --> 00:43:39.840 United States Senate. For those who do not go Getty Lee, 744 00:43:39.920 --> 00:43:41.480 as ask your parents. 745 00:43:41.679 --> 00:43:46.199 But the front man of perhaps the most and this 746 00:43:46.239 --> 00:43:48.960 is this is what ZZ top in the mixt uh 747 00:43:49.199 --> 00:43:54.360 the most accomplished three piece band in rock and roll history, truthfully, 748 00:43:54.880 --> 00:43:59.519 And you know, until I saw him perform live one night, 749 00:43:59.760 --> 00:44:03.400 I didn't realize how great on the axe he was. 750 00:44:03.599 --> 00:44:05.920 Well, he's got the base, he's got the foot pedals, 751 00:44:05.920 --> 00:44:09.639 he's playing organ and stuff and he's singing. Yeah, I 752 00:44:09.639 --> 00:44:14.519 mean I can barely sing. Choose McConnell will be out, 753 00:44:14.639 --> 00:44:18.320 Getty Lee will be in. Who's at Lee? 754 00:44:18.440 --> 00:44:21.159 McConnell will be out after after this term, Getty Lee 755 00:44:21.199 --> 00:44:21.719 can come. 756 00:44:21.599 --> 00:44:27.159 In the membership. Are you gonna have him moved to Kentucky. Well, no, 757 00:44:27.199 --> 00:44:28.920 we're going to make Canada the fifty first state. 758 00:44:29.000 --> 00:44:33.719 Well, I mean, McConnell will be out, but we we 759 00:44:33.800 --> 00:44:38.280 need we need something besides the turtle in Kentucky. Well, sorry, 760 00:44:38.360 --> 00:44:43.159 I I have never been really enamored. And people always say, well, 761 00:44:43.480 --> 00:44:47.079 he kept Garrit Merrick Garland from being a Supreme Court justice. 762 00:44:47.119 --> 00:44:49.119 He did that, and he helped with all these other 763 00:44:49.239 --> 00:44:51.400 judicial nominees in Trump's first term. 764 00:44:52.320 --> 00:44:53.360 Uh, I don't care. 765 00:44:53.679 --> 00:44:57.199 Mitch McConnell is a disgrace not to the Republican Party, 766 00:44:57.239 --> 00:45:01.280 but to the citizens of Kentucky, who overwhelmed voted for 767 00:45:01.320 --> 00:45:07.199 Trump and by Osmoses voted for his agenda and the 768 00:45:07.199 --> 00:45:09.079 people he picked his nominees to lead. 769 00:45:09.760 --> 00:45:11.920 Let's go right into that, because that's where the rest 770 00:45:11.920 --> 00:45:14.800 of the week leads. When you talked about Trump having 771 00:45:14.800 --> 00:45:17.000 a great first week, you talk about all the people 772 00:45:17.039 --> 00:45:22.639 going through the confirmation process. They put the easies up first, right, 773 00:45:22.960 --> 00:45:25.199 because you want a couple of victories before you go 774 00:45:25.320 --> 00:45:28.239 and see, you get Marco Rubio, you know, one hundred 775 00:45:28.320 --> 00:45:32.400 percent vote, you get everybody else going through, then you 776 00:45:32.519 --> 00:45:36.840 get gonna put Egsteth out there just to see where 777 00:45:37.079 --> 00:45:38.039 the roadblocks are. 778 00:45:38.199 --> 00:45:41.199 Well, heg Seth's hearing was actually before the vote on 779 00:45:41.239 --> 00:45:45.280 hag Seth. He was the first one that they they grilled. Well, 780 00:45:45.280 --> 00:45:48.039 but I mean onto the floor committee, right on committee, 781 00:45:48.079 --> 00:45:51.519 but into the floor. Yeah, so now you have what 782 00:45:51.760 --> 00:45:54.280 I think what that was a test for was coming 783 00:45:54.360 --> 00:46:00.519 up with uh with RFK because the Democrats don't trust 784 00:46:00.960 --> 00:46:03.199 Gabbard is going to be tough to the Republicans don't 785 00:46:03.199 --> 00:46:07.599 trust r Fkh. Tulsea Gabbard, I think is is You're right, 786 00:46:07.719 --> 00:46:09.320 is going to be be a problem, but it's going 787 00:46:09.400 --> 00:46:13.320 to have less of a questionable policy attitude. 788 00:46:13.360 --> 00:46:16.079 Okay, she went she you know, is she a Ruski? 789 00:46:16.360 --> 00:46:18.880 I don't think she is fine. Okay, that's going to 790 00:46:18.920 --> 00:46:25.199 be the question. I think she's hot when well, as 791 00:46:25.199 --> 00:46:27.440 long as we know that's a qualification for you to 792 00:46:27.480 --> 00:46:32.159 be to be a cabinet secretary, right, Well, at least 793 00:46:32.480 --> 00:46:33.000 if you're. 794 00:46:32.800 --> 00:46:36.599 Going to have people that are incompetent or not doing 795 00:46:36.639 --> 00:46:39.079 their job, you want them to at least look good. 796 00:46:39.360 --> 00:46:41.679 Well, so that means I can nominate if I'm president, 797 00:46:41.760 --> 00:46:44.360 I want to nominate me Acunas for any and every 798 00:46:44.400 --> 00:46:48.880 spot that I can who Miacunas, who's on the actress. 799 00:46:49.320 --> 00:46:51.760 I'm not familiar with me Acunas. Who she she was 800 00:46:51.800 --> 00:46:56.199 on she was on the seventy show. Oh yeah, yeah yeah, so. 801 00:46:56.280 --> 00:46:58.000 You know when you know, I mean so I want 802 00:46:58.039 --> 00:47:00.800 her as as you know, as my point I was 803 00:47:00.880 --> 00:47:05.079 making the point is just aesthetically pleasing, Yes she is. 804 00:47:05.440 --> 00:47:08.880 But I think it's all last week was partially a 805 00:47:08.920 --> 00:47:12.719 setup to see where the landmines are for our FK, 806 00:47:12.960 --> 00:47:17.440 because again the Democrats don't trusting, Republicans don't trusting. They 807 00:47:17.440 --> 00:47:20.039 threw all of that out there, you know, when it 808 00:47:20.119 --> 00:47:24.000 comes to with all due respect in your and I 809 00:47:24.039 --> 00:47:27.679 don't necessarily disagree with your your your full opinion on 810 00:47:27.679 --> 00:47:32.440 on McConnell. But there's one word that is going to 811 00:47:32.480 --> 00:47:34.559 come up over and over again in this hearing, and 812 00:47:34.599 --> 00:47:35.800 that is the word polio. 813 00:47:37.039 --> 00:47:40.440 Yeah, and that has been debunked by Robert F. Kennedy 814 00:47:40.559 --> 00:47:45.480 Junior himself in discussions about polio vaccines. This is this 815 00:47:45.559 --> 00:47:49.159 is a trope that's being laid out there as as 816 00:47:49.199 --> 00:47:54.000 a part of the hindrance, as an obstacle because Big 817 00:47:54.039 --> 00:47:58.199 Pharma does not want our FK Junior, and Big AG 818 00:47:58.360 --> 00:48:01.159 and big Food does not want RFK Junior to be 819 00:48:01.199 --> 00:48:06.079 the head of HHS because he is simply trying to 820 00:48:06.480 --> 00:48:10.280 make America healthy again by changing their business model. Right now, 821 00:48:10.320 --> 00:48:14.079 their business model is promoted. Come up with something promoted. 822 00:48:14.960 --> 00:48:18.039 And I think that pharmaceutical companies should never be able 823 00:48:18.079 --> 00:48:20.719 to advertise on TV for prescription drugs the way they do, 824 00:48:20.760 --> 00:48:22.559 and I hope that they get rid of that, I 825 00:48:22.679 --> 00:48:29.400 really do. But but then he is, he. 826 00:48:30.920 --> 00:48:37.079 Has he has first and and and and when these 827 00:48:37.159 --> 00:48:41.159 questions have come up, he's always said he's not against 828 00:48:41.159 --> 00:48:46.239 the polio vaccine. He's been vaccinated for many things. He's 829 00:48:46.239 --> 00:48:50.039 not against measles or anything like that. He just wants 830 00:48:50.599 --> 00:48:55.119 full advice and consent to the American public about the 831 00:48:55.159 --> 00:49:00.639 side effects and the possible downfalls of conceal dooming these 832 00:49:01.239 --> 00:49:04.159 from patient to patient because many times they're glossed over. 833 00:49:04.559 --> 00:49:09.440 And as you know, pharmaceutical companies who developed these vaccines, 834 00:49:09.519 --> 00:49:14.559 like far Affiser, cannot be sued for the ill effects 835 00:49:14.840 --> 00:49:19.800 that their products bring to people, you know, alongside the 836 00:49:19.840 --> 00:49:21.760 supposed benefits. 837 00:49:22.360 --> 00:49:26.360 But he's all that, he's not, He's not that's going 838 00:49:26.440 --> 00:49:27.719 to vaccine. 839 00:49:27.719 --> 00:49:30.639 That's going to be the tough hurdle for Trump this 840 00:49:30.760 --> 00:49:33.679 coming week is to get and and I don't thin 841 00:49:33.760 --> 00:49:35.800 I don't think I think Telsea Gabbard will end up 842 00:49:35.840 --> 00:49:37.960 being confirmed. I don't think that's going to be an 843 00:49:37.960 --> 00:49:40.880 issue in the end. That makes me feel sick. I 844 00:49:41.000 --> 00:49:43.039 know that it makes you feel warm, and you'll feel 845 00:49:43.079 --> 00:49:47.800 warm and fuzzy inside. But uh, I actually think the 846 00:49:47.840 --> 00:49:50.440 problem is going to be, you know, well r f 847 00:49:50.480 --> 00:49:54.239 K and be confirmed. I think that as a yet 848 00:49:54.239 --> 00:49:56.119 to be seen that's the biggest hurdle. You know, they're 849 00:49:56.159 --> 00:49:58.000 thus far in all in all of this in the 850 00:49:58.039 --> 00:49:58.519 coming week. 851 00:49:58.639 --> 00:50:01.519 Talking to Rick Robinson on the night Cap about Trump's 852 00:50:01.519 --> 00:50:05.159 first week here in this half hour on seven hundred WLW, 853 00:50:05.719 --> 00:50:08.280 and I tell you I've got I've got problems with 854 00:50:08.440 --> 00:50:11.039 RFK Jr. On his stances on other things. You know, 855 00:50:11.079 --> 00:50:16.559 he's a Green New Deal nut. And and Tulsi Gabbard 856 00:50:18.079 --> 00:50:20.679 does not have many of the values of say the 857 00:50:20.719 --> 00:50:24.000 Freedom Caucus or the Conservative Caucus of the Republican Party 858 00:50:24.079 --> 00:50:27.280 in Congress. And she's going to face some opposition there 859 00:50:27.400 --> 00:50:29.960 because there are people, like you said, don't fully trust 860 00:50:30.000 --> 00:50:31.519 her on either side. 861 00:50:32.440 --> 00:50:33.800 And that's with both of them. 862 00:50:33.920 --> 00:50:36.280 Yeah, you know, you have somebody that's flip flopped on 863 00:50:36.360 --> 00:50:39.880 parties on both sides there immediately. And here's for the 864 00:50:39.920 --> 00:50:43.119 other side, their own side as well as the other side. 865 00:50:44.119 --> 00:50:44.960 Here's the problem. 866 00:50:45.000 --> 00:50:49.360 In Tulci Gabbert and RFK Junior both said I didn't 867 00:50:49.440 --> 00:50:54.559 leave the Democratic Party. They they left me as far 868 00:50:54.679 --> 00:51:00.880 as freedom of speech and as far as the because 869 00:51:01.519 --> 00:51:03.800 all in all, and you've been in Washington. You were 870 00:51:03.840 --> 00:51:08.280 in Washington for how many years, Rick, twelve years total? 871 00:51:08.559 --> 00:51:11.679 Twelve years total, so and somewhere in politics ever are 872 00:51:11.719 --> 00:51:15.320 in between, right exactly. But my point is, you know 873 00:51:15.880 --> 00:51:18.480 as well as I do, in fact better than I 874 00:51:18.559 --> 00:51:24.719 do that in Washington, d C. It's all about this, 875 00:51:24.880 --> 00:51:28.519 It's all about about gets all about all about the Yale. 876 00:51:28.679 --> 00:51:33.039 So yeah, here's the here's the deal. I think that 877 00:51:33.119 --> 00:51:38.679 it's looking forward for Donald Trump and for the Republican 878 00:51:38.719 --> 00:51:41.119 Party when they when they look at all of these, 879 00:51:41.840 --> 00:51:46.480 is that the first vote on that we had last 880 00:51:46.519 --> 00:51:50.800 week on Pete was in fact a loyalty test. 881 00:51:51.480 --> 00:51:51.920 Mm hmm. 882 00:51:52.480 --> 00:51:54.599 Okay, we know we have three that have gone the 883 00:51:54.639 --> 00:51:56.400 other way. Now they're saying in the White House, so 884 00:51:56.800 --> 00:51:58.840 who else? Who else do they have the potential to 885 00:51:58.880 --> 00:52:02.320 lose on these other two and what can they do 886 00:52:02.400 --> 00:52:05.800 to get them back? Well, threat is basically what you say. 887 00:52:05.840 --> 00:52:08.800 It's like, Okay, I'm going to primary you sure, come 888 00:52:08.840 --> 00:52:09.719 come the next time. 889 00:52:12.039 --> 00:52:13.519 McConnell's done. So. 890 00:52:14.320 --> 00:52:16.920 The one thing that I find interesting about all of 891 00:52:16.960 --> 00:52:20.719 this was that, see, I worked on Capitol Hill when 892 00:52:21.360 --> 00:52:25.760 Reagan and Bush were presidents during those two terms, but 893 00:52:25.880 --> 00:52:29.599 the Democrats controlled the House and the Senate, or at 894 00:52:29.679 --> 00:52:31.360 least one of they controlled the House. I was on 895 00:52:31.400 --> 00:52:34.000 the House side when when I worked up there, And 896 00:52:34.039 --> 00:52:36.559 what was funny was that during that time frame, the 897 00:52:36.719 --> 00:52:40.280 argument was of the Republican Party was damn it, Reagan 898 00:52:40.320 --> 00:52:42.639 and Bush don't care about what we say. We're the minority, 899 00:52:45.679 --> 00:52:48.119 and it was very hard to get the attention of 900 00:52:48.159 --> 00:52:48.800 the White House. 901 00:52:50.880 --> 00:52:52.599 My boss did a couple of times. 902 00:52:53.119 --> 00:52:57.239 Yeah, he brought a motion on the floor one time 903 00:52:57.280 --> 00:52:59.960 to cut off funding to Israel, which got the attention 904 00:53:00.199 --> 00:53:03.880 of Ronald Reagan real quick. When when actually the motion 905 00:53:04.079 --> 00:53:08.159 was granted UH and suddenly we got everybody's attention of going, oh, 906 00:53:08.239 --> 00:53:10.239 you want to discuss that other issue now, yeah, we 907 00:53:10.360 --> 00:53:13.320 just got off some funding funding for UH, for R 908 00:53:13.400 --> 00:53:15.320 and D credits Israel. Now, what would you like to 909 00:53:15.320 --> 00:53:18.639 talk about well, sure, we'll lift our objection. I think 910 00:53:18.719 --> 00:53:20.800 Trump trying to do stuff like that to get the 911 00:53:20.840 --> 00:53:21.679 president's attention. 912 00:53:21.880 --> 00:53:22.000 Right. 913 00:53:22.360 --> 00:53:27.039 But Trump is playing this game himself right so now 914 00:53:27.280 --> 00:53:30.280 because because and it's Rick, I swear it's because of 915 00:53:30.320 --> 00:53:34.360 his first term, and he's exactly and seeing how how 916 00:53:34.639 --> 00:53:38.280 it goes. And he's a hardball business guy anyway, and 917 00:53:38.400 --> 00:53:39.880 actually we should talk to anybody. 918 00:53:39.920 --> 00:53:42.199 And actually sitting now, the year put him in our 919 00:53:42.280 --> 00:53:44.039 sitting now. The term put him in a better position 920 00:53:44.079 --> 00:53:45.239 to do what he's doing right now. 921 00:53:45.360 --> 00:53:45.639 Yeah. 922 00:53:45.920 --> 00:53:49.119 Oh, I think because he's watching what's happening. He's watching 923 00:53:49.159 --> 00:53:52.559 what's going on. I think the most important thing that 924 00:53:52.599 --> 00:53:55.039 he's using right now is that he's using the vice 925 00:53:55.079 --> 00:53:59.880 president in the House and the Senate to try and 926 00:54:00.119 --> 00:54:01.960 with those arms to try and get those votes, you know, 927 00:54:02.119 --> 00:54:03.639 speaking of the vice president. 928 00:54:04.119 --> 00:54:07.119 And I said this to somebody the night that they 929 00:54:07.159 --> 00:54:10.480 announced on November fifth, the early morning hours of November sixth, 930 00:54:11.079 --> 00:54:14.519 that Trump was the winner. I said, thus begins the 931 00:54:14.559 --> 00:54:16.360 presidential race for twenty twenty eight. 932 00:54:17.119 --> 00:54:17.599 And jd. 933 00:54:17.760 --> 00:54:20.760 Vance is going to be very upfront and center, as 934 00:54:20.760 --> 00:54:24.519 opposed to most vice presidents or background they go to 935 00:54:24.519 --> 00:54:27.639 state events. You know they're there to support the president, 936 00:54:27.960 --> 00:54:30.559 but they're not in the limelight. And the fact that 937 00:54:30.599 --> 00:54:34.760 Trump maybe a bit of a narcissist will allow jd 938 00:54:34.920 --> 00:54:38.159 Vance to be out there and be forward because jd 939 00:54:38.320 --> 00:54:42.440 Vance is campaigning right now for the nomination in twenty 940 00:54:42.440 --> 00:54:43.320 eight don't you say. 941 00:54:43.559 --> 00:54:45.719 Oh yeah, So many vice presidents are just sent to 942 00:54:45.760 --> 00:54:49.000 horrible places. I remember the jokes that were in the 943 00:54:49.039 --> 00:54:52.679 pipeline when Nixon was sent to Caracas in the middle 944 00:54:52.760 --> 00:54:58.239 of violence and riots in the in the country atil 945 00:54:58.320 --> 00:55:02.840 to American Samoa. The headline for Nixon was Nixon stoned 946 00:55:02.880 --> 00:55:11.639 and karakaff So not exactly what they expected to the 947 00:55:11.800 --> 00:55:14.000 tagline for a presidential campaign. 948 00:55:14.719 --> 00:55:17.320 I tell you what we're closing out on this half hour. 949 00:55:17.400 --> 00:55:21.280 Rick Robinson is our guest for another few minutes. Another segment, Rick, 950 00:55:21.320 --> 00:55:24.159 and what I wanted to address since we kind of 951 00:55:24.159 --> 00:55:29.480 turned to the vice president jd Vance, I want to 952 00:55:29.480 --> 00:55:34.519 talk a little bit about his appearance on Face the 953 00:55:34.639 --> 00:55:40.079 Nation with Margaret Brennan and him in many cases very 954 00:55:40.119 --> 00:55:44.000 politely putting her in her place when she tried to 955 00:55:44.039 --> 00:55:47.440 ask gotcha questions. It was a fun exchange, and we'll 956 00:55:47.480 --> 00:55:50.360 go through some of that when we come back. Rick Robinson, 957 00:55:50.639 --> 00:55:53.320 the author of nineteen sixty eight, he brought a copy in. 958 00:55:53.639 --> 00:55:56.360 I have my own copy at home. This one's for 959 00:55:56.400 --> 00:55:59.079 Peter Bronson, and we'll make sure he gets it. And 960 00:55:59.159 --> 00:56:01.239 if you want one, you can find it on Amazon. 961 00:56:01.599 --> 00:56:03.679 All right, nineteen sixty eight. 962 00:56:04.360 --> 00:56:06.760 It was a full title of that nineteen sixty eight, 963 00:56:06.840 --> 00:56:10.519 A primer for understanding baby boomers. You got kids and 964 00:56:10.559 --> 00:56:13.000 wonder why you are the way you are. Get him 965 00:56:13.000 --> 00:56:16.079 a copy of this book. Maybe they'll figure it out. Okay, 966 00:56:16.239 --> 00:56:17.119 very very well. 967 00:56:17.360 --> 00:56:20.480 Rick Robinson returns with us after the break and the 968 00:56:20.519 --> 00:56:25.400 news on the Nightcap on seven hundred WLW. And in 969 00:56:25.440 --> 00:56:29.760 the last segment, I brought up Dan Quayle, who for 970 00:56:29.880 --> 00:56:32.719 many was a laughing stock. I don't think he was nearly. 971 00:56:33.039 --> 00:56:33.519 I think he was. 972 00:56:33.599 --> 00:56:36.119 He was a wonderful individual. He was a very sincere, 973 00:56:36.239 --> 00:56:37.239 heartfelt individual. 974 00:56:37.440 --> 00:56:40.639 Right had some problems public speaking from time to time. 975 00:56:40.519 --> 00:56:43.400 Had some well, the problems were not with public speaking. 976 00:56:43.440 --> 00:56:48.039 The problems ended up coming with Jim Baker, Okay, because 977 00:56:48.119 --> 00:56:50.960 Quayle picked his own vice president or Bush picked his 978 00:56:51.000 --> 00:56:55.239 own vice president, and from that point forward was submarine 979 00:56:56.119 --> 00:56:59.280 at every opportunity had by Jim Baker. Do you ever 980 00:56:59.320 --> 00:57:01.920 say the way named Jim Baker around Dan Quayle. You 981 00:57:02.000 --> 00:57:04.480 just watched the furrow and the brow come on. 982 00:57:04.599 --> 00:57:07.360 So tell me the story as best you can about 983 00:57:07.360 --> 00:57:11.280 how you almost killed Dan. I was almost. 984 00:57:11.360 --> 00:57:13.840 I was almost the person responsible for the death of 985 00:57:13.880 --> 00:57:19.000 the Vice president. This was actually post vice president, right 986 00:57:19.039 --> 00:57:21.519 after we were having a fundraiser for Jim butting up 987 00:57:21.559 --> 00:57:24.440 at a house in da Voo Park. We're coming back. 988 00:57:24.599 --> 00:57:30.320 It's the congressman, his wife, one of our staffers, myself, Quail, 989 00:57:30.360 --> 00:57:32.119 and his staffer. Quail and I are sitting in the 990 00:57:32.119 --> 00:57:34.440 front seat and we're coming through that section of d 991 00:57:34.519 --> 00:57:37.440 Voo Park where you go where the trees building is, 992 00:57:37.519 --> 00:57:41.480 right into where the houses are. And Quail, whenever he traveled, 993 00:57:41.480 --> 00:57:43.119 one of the things he always said when it came 994 00:57:43.159 --> 00:57:46.199 into some place was, can you take me someplace to dinner? 995 00:57:46.239 --> 00:57:47.880 Before we get back on the plane. Can you take 996 00:57:47.920 --> 00:57:50.440 me someplace that I want to try the local beers. 997 00:57:51.440 --> 00:57:53.760 Wherever he went, he loved to go someplace and just 998 00:57:53.840 --> 00:57:57.800 have a fish sandwich and whatever local brews were. 999 00:57:57.719 --> 00:57:59.159 A hootie or a hooty. 1000 00:57:59.280 --> 00:58:03.360 Well, even the micro bruise at that time. Oldenburg was big. 1001 00:58:03.400 --> 00:58:06.280 So we decided we'd take him down to the Greyhound 1002 00:58:06.280 --> 00:58:08.239 Grill right because we knew they had a couple of 1003 00:58:08.280 --> 00:58:11.880 differently local beers that were being served there, Oldenburg being 1004 00:58:11.920 --> 00:58:15.000 one of them. He wanted to try the Oldenburg. So 1005 00:58:15.440 --> 00:58:17.639 we're coming out of Davoo Park right as you get 1006 00:58:17.639 --> 00:58:19.480 to the first hole on the right of the golf course, 1007 00:58:20.440 --> 00:58:24.320 and in front of us is this big panel van. 1008 00:58:25.880 --> 00:58:28.320 Now I am assuming that it was a panel van 1009 00:58:28.400 --> 00:58:30.639 with a bunch of movers in it that was moving 1010 00:58:30.719 --> 00:58:33.280 into a new house. And if you get up there, 1011 00:58:33.280 --> 00:58:36.840 it's easy to get lost. They come to the stop sign, 1012 00:58:38.159 --> 00:58:41.039 put it in park, and two guys come walking out 1013 00:58:41.079 --> 00:58:47.719 of either side back towards our van. No Secret Service 1014 00:58:47.800 --> 00:58:50.159 know anything else we have in the car. Jim and 1015 00:58:50.159 --> 00:58:51.960 Mary are sitting in the back, Quail sitting in the 1016 00:58:51.960 --> 00:58:54.039 front with me. I'm behind the wheel. Quail looks at 1017 00:58:54.039 --> 00:58:55.800 me and see these guys come over, and his eyes 1018 00:58:55.800 --> 00:58:57.599 are about big as wide two. 1019 00:58:57.400 --> 00:58:58.400 Pee holes in the snow. 1020 00:58:58.760 --> 00:59:02.679 He looks over me and goes, get us the darn 1021 00:59:02.719 --> 00:59:08.440 place out of here, and I immediately just slam the 1022 00:59:08.519 --> 00:59:14.639 gas and we go up onto the dirt back around 1023 00:59:14.679 --> 00:59:18.000 the stone benches nearly flip it down onto the golf 1024 00:59:18.039 --> 00:59:20.920 course back and we get back onto the road. First off, 1025 00:59:21.000 --> 00:59:23.360 Jim Buddy looks around and Jim Buddy is like. 1026 00:59:23.440 --> 00:59:25.199 What the hell are you doing? Richard? 1027 00:59:25.320 --> 00:59:27.320 You knew you were in trouble when he called you Richard, 1028 00:59:29.440 --> 00:59:32.239 and Quayle just looks around and goes, shut up, Jimmy's driving. 1029 00:59:32.719 --> 00:59:39.000 So so yeah, I shut up, Jimmy's driving. That's not great. 1030 00:59:39.159 --> 00:59:42.320 I just I just imagined these two guys were these 1031 00:59:42.360 --> 00:59:44.800 two guys were moving somebody into a house and couldn't 1032 00:59:44.800 --> 00:59:46.760 find the house and looking around going. 1033 00:59:46.840 --> 00:59:52.360 That's wrong with that guy. That's funny, true story, that's funny. 1034 00:59:52.480 --> 00:59:59.920 Uh So Rick, our current vice president J D Vance, who, 1035 01:00:00.079 --> 01:00:02.360 as I mentioned, is you know, the campaign for twenty 1036 01:00:02.400 --> 01:00:06.000 twenty eight is full on right now. It never and 1037 01:00:06.000 --> 01:00:09.480 that election cycle never ends in Washington, DC, it doesn't now. 1038 01:00:11.039 --> 01:00:15.960 It was on Face the Nation yesterday. Margaret Brennan. I 1039 01:00:16.000 --> 01:00:18.440 don't know if you've noticed over the past few years, 1040 01:00:19.000 --> 01:00:24.280 but CBS and Margaret Brennan and all of their lackeys 1041 01:00:25.199 --> 01:00:29.320 Jan Schaeffer before him, have not been particularly fond of 1042 01:00:29.519 --> 01:00:32.320 or fans of Donald Trump and giving them fair coverage. 1043 01:00:32.360 --> 01:00:37.440 I think the Alphabet networks coverage of Donald Trump still 1044 01:00:37.440 --> 01:00:40.199 to this day, up until this election, but to this 1045 01:00:40.400 --> 01:00:43.760 day has been about ninety five percent negative and five 1046 01:00:43.800 --> 01:00:48.000 percent positive. They never report anything good about Trump or 1047 01:00:48.119 --> 01:00:51.639 anybody associated with it. But so this is a big 1048 01:00:51.679 --> 01:00:56.039 moment for JD. Vance to face the fire of that 1049 01:00:56.199 --> 01:01:00.719 evil Margaret Brennan, I face the nation and so both 1050 01:01:00.840 --> 01:01:04.559 this is Margaret Brennantungan. So both defense secretaries from President 1051 01:01:04.599 --> 01:01:08.360 Trump's last term were confirmed overwhelmingly ninety percent of the vote. 1052 01:01:08.880 --> 01:01:09.679 Pete Hegseth. 1053 01:01:10.119 --> 01:01:13.760 It was a tie bipartisan opposition, smallest margin since the 1054 01:01:13.880 --> 01:01:16.719 job was created. You had to break that tie. If 1055 01:01:16.760 --> 01:01:19.239 the nominee can't unite your party, how is it going 1056 01:01:19.280 --> 01:01:23.679 to leave three million people? And again, the candidate united 1057 01:01:23.719 --> 01:01:27.679 the party except for those three people. The vice president 1058 01:01:27.719 --> 01:01:31.280 here's his answer. Well, look, I think Pete is a disruptor, 1059 01:01:31.400 --> 01:01:35.039 a disruptor, and a lot of people don't like that disruption. 1060 01:01:35.840 --> 01:01:40.000 But Margaret, that disruption is incredibly necessary. If you think 1061 01:01:40.000 --> 01:01:43.000 about all those bipartisan massive votes, we have to ask 1062 01:01:43.079 --> 01:01:45.719 ourselves what did they get us? They got us a 1063 01:01:45.719 --> 01:01:48.519 country where we fought many wars over the last forty years, 1064 01:01:48.639 --> 01:01:50.719 but haven't won a war about as long as I've 1065 01:01:50.719 --> 01:01:54.039 been alive. They've got us a military with major recruitment 1066 01:01:54.079 --> 01:01:58.639 crisis that is a fact, a procurement price crisis also 1067 01:01:58.679 --> 01:02:02.360 a fact that's totally functional, where we buy airplanes for 1068 01:02:02.440 --> 01:02:06.360 billions and billions of dollars, terrible cost overruns, the delivery 1069 01:02:06.400 --> 01:02:09.239 dates are always delayed. So we need a big change. 1070 01:02:09.280 --> 01:02:09.440 Now. 1071 01:02:09.440 --> 01:02:12.480 Admittedly there are people who don't like that big change, 1072 01:02:12.679 --> 01:02:16.000 but it is necessary and it's explicitly what Donald J. 1073 01:02:16.159 --> 01:02:19.039 Trump ran on, and I think part of the reason 1074 01:02:19.079 --> 01:02:22.039 why the American people elected him their forty seventh president. 1075 01:02:22.280 --> 01:02:25.039 That's right off the butt, right off the top, and 1076 01:02:25.119 --> 01:02:26.719 he goes down point by point. 1077 01:02:27.840 --> 01:02:30.679 One of the best things that Donald J. Trump did 1078 01:02:31.079 --> 01:02:36.719 was choose him as his vice president because he you, 1079 01:02:37.360 --> 01:02:41.000 they're laughing. A couple of weeks ago, he explains maga 1080 01:02:41.039 --> 01:02:44.639 better than MAGA. Yeah, I think you're right. He really 1081 01:02:44.679 --> 01:02:48.079 adds a rationality to it. And it's funny because if 1082 01:02:48.119 --> 01:02:50.800 you remember, at the at the very beginning, so many. 1083 01:02:50.559 --> 01:02:54.119 People were aghast that it was Jadevans. 1084 01:02:54.199 --> 01:02:56.280 But actually what he has been able to do, I 1085 01:02:56.320 --> 01:03:02.480 think is put into common everyday language, what in fact 1086 01:03:02.639 --> 01:03:05.960 it all is about. That is a perfect example. Yesterday 1087 01:03:05.960 --> 01:03:08.559 I did not watch Face the nation. I don't watch face. 1088 01:03:09.039 --> 01:03:12.920 I saw the transcript and I watch a bunch of them. 1089 01:03:13.079 --> 01:03:15.400 You have to see what everybody saying. But I've quit 1090 01:03:15.480 --> 01:03:19.280 watching that one years ago. But it I think it's 1091 01:03:19.280 --> 01:03:23.760 a just shows you what a good choice it was 1092 01:03:23.800 --> 01:03:25.440 to make jd Vance the vice president. 1093 01:03:25.960 --> 01:03:27.440 Well usually. 1094 01:03:28.719 --> 01:03:31.639 And this is not to demean dan Quayle or anyone 1095 01:03:31.679 --> 01:03:33.000 that's been vice president. 1096 01:03:33.159 --> 01:03:34.639 If you're going to de bean dan quay you have 1097 01:03:34.679 --> 01:03:37.239 to get in line. Okay, that's true. There's a lot 1098 01:03:37.320 --> 01:03:39.559 of people that want to hear to day. I lived 1099 01:03:39.599 --> 01:03:43.239 through it myself. I remember the jokes and everything else. 1100 01:03:44.039 --> 01:03:46.719 But to have a. 1101 01:03:46.599 --> 01:03:50.119 President that well, jd Vance is not the lightning rod. 1102 01:03:50.159 --> 01:03:56.000 Donald Trump is as a personality perfect, perfect, but he 1103 01:03:57.239 --> 01:04:01.039 I don't think that to Kamala Harris was chosen because 1104 01:04:01.039 --> 01:04:04.039 she was the most confident person to be Joe Biden's 1105 01:04:04.119 --> 01:04:09.599 vice president. And if again you look at it from 1106 01:04:09.639 --> 01:04:13.480 the level of communication and and you know, and and 1107 01:04:13.760 --> 01:04:15.360 well and also if you take a look at the 1108 01:04:15.400 --> 01:04:18.480 last election, I mean, I mean she did not pick Walls, 1109 01:04:18.559 --> 01:04:20.719 was not was a horrible communicator. 1110 01:04:21.400 --> 01:04:22.519 Horrible communicator. 1111 01:04:23.039 --> 01:04:25.719 Everybody told me from up that way, some folks up 1112 01:04:25.719 --> 01:04:28.280 in Minnesota, Oh, he's going to be the all shocks, 1113 01:04:28.320 --> 01:04:30.559 you know, the Northwestern or you know, we're going to 1114 01:04:30.599 --> 01:04:33.639 do the Midwestern thing, you know, every We're going to 1115 01:04:33.719 --> 01:04:36.599 have the first price presidents ever say geez luise, you know, 1116 01:04:37.320 --> 01:04:41.719 and and and drinking old fashion every night for dinner. 1117 01:04:41.800 --> 01:04:45.440 You know. But I think he's just poisoned by their lootfisk. 1118 01:04:45.599 --> 01:04:50.920 He just he just couldn't communicate. I mean, there was 1119 01:04:51.000 --> 01:04:54.199 there was no there, there no But I guess what 1120 01:04:54.239 --> 01:04:57.400 I'm saying is and you you said it right. Jd 1121 01:04:57.559 --> 01:05:02.599 Vance explains MAGA better than MAGA. And it's a refreshing 1122 01:05:02.679 --> 01:05:10.199 change in that position in that office because I I mean, 1123 01:05:10.880 --> 01:05:13.039 if something had happened to Trump in the first term, 1124 01:05:14.480 --> 01:05:17.519 as fraught with all the problems there were in his 1125 01:05:17.559 --> 01:05:22.559 first term, I had no confidence in Mike Pence whatsoever. 1126 01:05:22.599 --> 01:05:25.320 And this is long before January sixth, in the vote 1127 01:05:26.360 --> 01:05:30.719 in the Senate on you know, certifying the election. I 1128 01:05:30.840 --> 01:05:35.360 just never saw Mike Pence as maybe a nice guy, 1129 01:05:35.639 --> 01:05:39.519 maybe nice guy, but is he presidential material? 1130 01:05:39.719 --> 01:05:40.119 Now? 1131 01:05:40.239 --> 01:05:43.719 Most nice presidents aren't presidential material. That's why we've elected 1132 01:05:43.760 --> 01:05:45.440 so few of them to become president. 1133 01:05:45.519 --> 01:05:46.159 Right but JD. 1134 01:05:46.280 --> 01:05:49.800 Vance I believe fills that bill. Don't you agree? I 1135 01:05:49.800 --> 01:05:50.280 think it does. 1136 01:05:50.360 --> 01:05:54.199 I think he I mean, clearly, he is the leading 1137 01:05:54.280 --> 01:05:59.480 candidate going into the first month of the twenty twenty 1138 01:05:59.519 --> 01:06:02.159 eight campaign for president, right right, just. 1139 01:06:02.159 --> 01:06:06.000 The first month. Rick Robinson, thank you so much, my friend. 1140 01:06:06.239 --> 01:06:08.400 It is always a pleasure to be here. Make sure 1141 01:06:08.440 --> 01:06:10.760 if you're at home, listen to this.

Everybody, everybody just and my 1143 01:06:14.480 --> 01:06:17.559 kids need my grandkids need some new shoes, so no 1144 01:06:17.719 --> 01:06:20.440 pick one up on Amazon today. Nineteen sixty eight, a 1145 01:06:20.519 --> 01:06:23.039 primer for understanding baby boomers. 1146 01:06:23.519 --> 01:06:25.800 All right, wonderful, sir, Thank you, good to see. I'm 1147 01:06:25.800 --> 01:06:26.199 a friend. 1148 01:06:26.559 --> 01:06:30.800 The nightcap continues, Lee Schi le Mish for a few minutes. 1149 01:06:31.159 --> 01:06:34.559 Find out why Gary Jeff would say something like Lee 1150 01:06:34.639 --> 01:06:38.199 Shai Lamish on the air. But he's coming up in 1151 01:06:38.400 --> 01:06:41.960 just a few as we continue on seven hundred WLW 1152 01:06:42.320 --> 01:06:47.119 A right to talk about Chinese culture, a specific kind 1153 01:06:47.159 --> 01:06:52.280 of culture that is stretches well past and well before 1154 01:06:53.000 --> 01:06:55.719 the China of today and the Chinese Communist Party that 1155 01:06:55.920 --> 01:07:00.960 controls that nation and its residents, its citizens with the 1156 01:07:01.159 --> 01:07:04.480 proverbial iron fist if they fall out of line with 1157 01:07:04.519 --> 01:07:08.320 what the party wants, what the government wants, and the like. 1158 01:07:08.440 --> 01:07:14.480 And he's uniquely qualified because for a good deal of time. 1159 01:07:14.519 --> 01:07:17.360 And I'll let him remind me of how many years 1160 01:07:17.719 --> 01:07:21.159 he has been MCing for the group shen Yun, which 1161 01:07:21.320 --> 01:07:24.880 is a Chinese dance and cultural theater group that travels 1162 01:07:24.880 --> 01:07:30.079 the country. They uniquely do something that I don't think 1163 01:07:30.119 --> 01:07:33.360 there's anybody else quite like what they're doing around the country. 1164 01:07:33.880 --> 01:07:36.880 And shen Yun, of course will be in this area, 1165 01:07:37.320 --> 01:07:41.719 I believe as well, very very soon. Leshai Lemish is 1166 01:07:41.920 --> 01:07:44.079 the man behind the mic, and he's the man on 1167 01:07:44.119 --> 01:07:46.400 the other end of the telephone right now, Leshai. 1168 01:07:46.039 --> 01:07:50.360 Good evening, Hi, how are you doing doing fine? How 1169 01:07:50.360 --> 01:07:53.039 long have you been with Shenyun traveling around the country? 1170 01:07:54.400 --> 01:07:57.679 Eighteen years? You know, old enough to vote? Yeah? The 1171 01:07:57.679 --> 01:08:01.119 company since we started, Yeah, And you know, we were 1172 01:08:01.360 --> 01:08:04.679 just one group of people, a lot of volunteers. It 1173 01:08:04.800 --> 01:08:09.559 was just a bunch of former, you know, top artists 1174 01:08:09.599 --> 01:08:13.800 from China who a lot of them fled persecution. Others 1175 01:08:13.840 --> 01:08:16.520 felt like there was no outlet for their art for 1176 01:08:16.640 --> 01:08:20.159 traditional Chinese art in China under the Chinese Communist Party, 1177 01:08:20.159 --> 01:08:23.279 and they said, let's create our own company in New York, 1178 01:08:23.840 --> 01:08:27.720 Upstate New York and revived this culture and also tell 1179 01:08:27.840 --> 01:08:31.039 the untold stories of people facing persecution in China and 1180 01:08:31.039 --> 01:08:34.359 their courage. And we just started from nothing and no 1181 01:08:34.439 --> 01:08:38.119 government support, no corporate support, no big donors, you know, 1182 01:08:38.239 --> 01:08:40.760 just a bunch of people. And from that it is 1183 01:08:41.119 --> 01:08:44.479 you know, a school was established to train dances in 1184 01:08:44.479 --> 01:08:47.600 classical Chinese dance called Satian Academy, and then a college 1185 01:08:47.600 --> 01:08:50.399 a master's program, and they trained one generation after another 1186 01:08:50.439 --> 01:08:54.079 of dancers and musicians and hired people from all over 1187 01:08:54.119 --> 01:08:57.319 the world. And now we have eight groups that tour 1188 01:08:57.399 --> 01:08:59.159 the world at the same time. And we're talking about 1189 01:08:59.199 --> 01:09:04.800 seven hundreds similar performances, not as many performers, maybe seventy 1190 01:09:04.840 --> 01:09:08.920 times daily, you know, five hundred plus performers and you know, 1191 01:09:09.159 --> 01:09:11.680 perform in front of over a million people every year. 1192 01:09:11.880 --> 01:09:14.600 Ten million people so far will be in Ohio mid. 1193 01:09:14.479 --> 01:09:16.399 February, yeah, next month. 1194 01:09:16.199 --> 01:09:18.039 And it's quite a phenomenous. 1195 01:09:18.279 --> 01:09:22.359 Well, I will tell you this, Lesha, that I was 1196 01:09:22.439 --> 01:09:28.840 talking with someone else who doubted that Chinese app like 1197 01:09:28.960 --> 01:09:34.560 TikTok could really be forcing propaganda on American citizens and 1198 01:09:34.760 --> 01:09:37.640 collect obviously collecting all kinds of data for whatever the 1199 01:09:37.680 --> 01:09:41.439 Communist Chinese Party wants. And he was just acting like 1200 01:09:41.720 --> 01:09:45.840 that was all trumped up and it wasn't real, and 1201 01:09:45.920 --> 01:09:49.079 that there was no problem with TikTok and why was 1202 01:09:49.079 --> 01:09:52.520 it even questioned? And then I told him a little 1203 01:09:52.560 --> 01:09:55.239 bit about our last conversation about Shan Yun and what 1204 01:09:55.399 --> 01:10:00.159 the Chinese Communist Party reaches its tentacles across into our 1205 01:10:00.239 --> 01:10:03.720 country and tries to do to disrupt your performances, because 1206 01:10:03.760 --> 01:10:06.920 it's much like Mao and the Cultural Revolution in China, 1207 01:10:07.199 --> 01:10:10.800 where they wanted to blot out every piece of history Chinese, 1208 01:10:10.840 --> 01:10:15.319 real Chinese history, it goes back thousands of years, anything 1209 01:10:15.399 --> 01:10:18.920 before the Communists took over and act like it never happened, 1210 01:10:19.159 --> 01:10:21.239 and they're still trying to do it. They're still trying 1211 01:10:21.239 --> 01:10:23.439 to do it with your group. When you perform in 1212 01:10:23.479 --> 01:10:27.159 this country, what kind of things have you been able 1213 01:10:27.199 --> 01:10:32.079 to I mean, can you rightfully accuse the CCP of 1214 01:10:32.119 --> 01:10:34.199 doing in this country as you're trying to tour? 1215 01:10:35.640 --> 01:10:35.800 Right? 1216 01:10:35.840 --> 01:10:37.640 Okay, So there's a whole range of things that we 1217 01:10:37.680 --> 01:10:39.399 know for sure that they're doing, and there's things that 1218 01:10:39.399 --> 01:10:41.279 we maybe can't prove it to them, but are happening 1219 01:10:42.119 --> 01:10:43.560 the ones that we can accuse them of. 1220 01:10:43.600 --> 01:10:44.119 For sure. 1221 01:10:44.119 --> 01:10:47.439 We have copies of letters that Chinese embassies and conflicts 1222 01:10:47.479 --> 01:10:50.279 have sent to the theaters where we perform, to our 1223 01:10:50.319 --> 01:10:54.520 own elected officials, congressmen, mayors, telling them to try to 1224 01:10:54.520 --> 01:10:58.439 cancel the performances, nullified contracts that we have for shows, 1225 01:10:58.479 --> 01:11:01.119 even shows that were entirely sold out. This does not 1226 01:11:01.199 --> 01:11:03.319 work in America. It does work a little bit in 1227 01:11:03.399 --> 01:11:05.680 Eastern Europe and some parts of Asia where they're more 1228 01:11:06.000 --> 01:11:09.600 suspect to CCP pressure, but in America at backfires. And 1229 01:11:09.680 --> 01:11:11.560 then what we do know that they've tried to also 1230 01:11:11.840 --> 01:11:15.960 pressure our sponsors, you know, media, advertisers, any sponsors that 1231 01:11:16.000 --> 01:11:18.760 we have to try to cancel. That that sometimes works. 1232 01:11:19.279 --> 01:11:23.479 They pressure Chinese student and scholar associations, which are present 1233 01:11:23.560 --> 01:11:26.920 in every big university in the country, through Confucius Institutes, 1234 01:11:26.960 --> 01:11:31.399 through their United Front organization to protest, to pressure the 1235 01:11:31.399 --> 01:11:33.800 theaters to cancel shows, to tell people not to go 1236 01:11:33.840 --> 01:11:36.760 through the show. And then there's a whole range of 1237 01:11:36.880 --> 01:11:39.560 you know, gangster type attack that we face. We've had 1238 01:11:39.560 --> 01:11:41.800 our bus Hire slash and they're slashed in such a 1239 01:11:41.800 --> 01:11:44.239 way that they don't deflate right away. They would explode 1240 01:11:44.279 --> 01:11:46.960 on the highway and they're cut just a little bit 1241 01:11:46.960 --> 01:11:49.560 into the rubber. And this has happened multiple times and 1242 01:11:49.600 --> 01:11:51.079 it's under inspection, police reports. 1243 01:11:51.079 --> 01:11:51.520 The whole thing. 1244 01:11:52.119 --> 01:11:55.720 We're getting bomb threats, and you know these are in Chinese, 1245 01:11:55.840 --> 01:11:59.039 written in a very mainland China sort of a way, 1246 01:11:59.319 --> 01:12:00.960 And of course we can't point dis directly to the 1247 01:12:00.960 --> 01:12:03.760 ambassador to Cgping. But the other thing that we know 1248 01:12:04.279 --> 01:12:06.880 is that we've had leaked documents coming out of China 1249 01:12:07.079 --> 01:12:10.680 saying that Shanyin performing Arts is a major target of 1250 01:12:10.720 --> 01:12:14.119 the Chinese Communist Party and a big threat, and that 1251 01:12:14.119 --> 01:12:16.239 they want to take us down. It's like the endgame 1252 01:12:16.359 --> 01:12:18.239 battle for them, and the way that they want to 1253 01:12:18.279 --> 01:12:21.960 do it is through weaponizing our social media. It's going 1254 01:12:22.000 --> 01:12:24.199 back to TikTok, and obviously not just TikTok, but x 1255 01:12:24.199 --> 01:12:27.520 and YouTube and everything else, and to use that with 1256 01:12:27.800 --> 01:12:31.439 their agents and with paying other people money, including YouTubers 1257 01:12:31.479 --> 01:12:34.000 who were offered two hundred dollars or five hundred dollars 1258 01:12:34.079 --> 01:12:37.880 in different cases to do videos attacking Hnyun and then 1259 01:12:38.039 --> 01:12:42.560 get that narrative into mainstream American media like the New 1260 01:12:42.640 --> 01:12:46.159 York Times, and we see copycat behavior from local papers 1261 01:12:46.680 --> 01:12:49.600 trying to basically attack Shanyuan as being an abusive kind 1262 01:12:49.600 --> 01:12:53.520 of performing arts company or attack China Force, and you know, 1263 01:12:53.600 --> 01:12:55.600 the reality couldn't be any more different. And you talk 1264 01:12:55.640 --> 01:12:58.720 to our performers. They love it here. Our retention rates 1265 01:12:58.720 --> 01:13:01.000 are incredibly high. And this is you know, it's not 1266 01:13:01.159 --> 01:13:04.439 performing arts is not an easy lifestyle. You're traveling a lot, 1267 01:13:04.560 --> 01:13:08.159 that's physically exhausting. But people have very well taken care 1268 01:13:08.239 --> 01:13:10.560 of top doctors, so all these claims that they have 1269 01:13:10.640 --> 01:13:14.199 are very easily refuted. But they get out there so 1270 01:13:14.439 --> 01:13:16.800 much that they're trying to create this narrative. But you know, 1271 01:13:16.840 --> 01:13:19.640 we're still performing. A lot of shows are sold out, 1272 01:13:19.720 --> 01:13:21.520 doing well and not going to stop. 1273 01:13:21.800 --> 01:13:21.960 Well. 1274 01:13:21.960 --> 01:13:25.680 You remember, and you said that the performers love it here. 1275 01:13:26.239 --> 01:13:30.520 They also have a deep, abiding love for their own 1276 01:13:30.600 --> 01:13:33.159 culture as a people. Is it Chinese people that goes 1277 01:13:33.199 --> 01:13:34.520 back thousands of years? 1278 01:13:34.720 --> 01:13:35.000 Lisha. 1279 01:13:35.199 --> 01:13:39.880 We saw this happen during really during twenty twenty after 1280 01:13:39.920 --> 01:13:43.920 the George Floyd riots in this country. We saw it 1281 01:13:43.960 --> 01:13:47.199 with people wanting to tear down statues of Civil War 1282 01:13:47.319 --> 01:13:51.239 or great Americans like Thomas Jefferson and George Washington, even 1283 01:13:51.640 --> 01:13:55.319 because of the sins of their past. But the problem 1284 01:13:55.359 --> 01:13:58.399 with was you don't erase the sins of the past 1285 01:13:58.479 --> 01:14:03.520 by completely forgetting and moth bawling everything that happened in 1286 01:14:03.520 --> 01:14:06.920 the past, as the Communist Chinese Party has done. They're 1287 01:14:07.079 --> 01:14:11.079 just like the Prohomasue protesters. They're just like any other 1288 01:14:11.159 --> 01:14:15.640 They're like, isis that tore down monuments and antiquities in 1289 01:14:15.680 --> 01:14:19.399 the Middle East because they said, no, that doesn't matter anymore. 1290 01:14:19.439 --> 01:14:22.520 We're here in control now. And the Communist Chinese Party 1291 01:14:22.560 --> 01:14:25.960 has been doing this now for decades, since they took 1292 01:14:26.039 --> 01:14:28.520 over that wonderful country. 1293 01:14:29.239 --> 01:14:32.880 Yeah, a certain arrogance in people today saying the past 1294 01:14:32.880 --> 01:14:34.800 doesn't matter. All that matters is what we think and 1295 01:14:34.840 --> 01:14:37.319 what we know now. And as we learn more and 1296 01:14:37.399 --> 01:14:41.279 more about ancient history, including prehistoric civilizations and what existed 1297 01:14:41.279 --> 01:14:44.119 a long time ago, we learn actually there are multiple 1298 01:14:44.199 --> 01:14:46.439 paths that you can take to hav an advanced civilization. 1299 01:14:46.920 --> 01:14:52.560 But what's in common is this traditional morality virtues, and 1300 01:14:52.640 --> 01:14:54.640 that's what's coming out in our performance, and that's what 1301 01:14:54.640 --> 01:14:58.199 traditional Chinese culture is really about its ideas like courage 1302 01:14:58.199 --> 01:15:02.840 and integrity and compassion and and humility and a certain 1303 01:15:02.880 --> 01:15:06.239 spirituality and humility in front of the design. And that 1304 01:15:06.359 --> 01:15:08.840 is something that's held humanity together for thousands of years. 1305 01:15:08.840 --> 01:15:10.880 And when we lose that, we lose those traditions. Just 1306 01:15:10.880 --> 01:15:12.760 so when you have all this other stuff, and of 1307 01:15:12.760 --> 01:15:14.560 course that's what Mouth set out to destroy. And the 1308 01:15:14.600 --> 01:15:17.039 culture evolution, which you know was not that long ago, 1309 01:15:17.159 --> 01:15:19.199 talking late sixties, early seventies. I know a lot of 1310 01:15:19.239 --> 01:15:22.159 people who went through it. And so when we perform 1311 01:15:22.239 --> 01:15:24.960 Shinu and we bring back these traditions and these virtues, 1312 01:15:25.640 --> 01:15:29.680 they resonate with everybody. It's a Chinese cultural performance, but 1313 01:15:29.800 --> 01:15:33.840 you see people from all walks of life, religions, races, countries, 1314 01:15:34.279 --> 01:15:38.760 nationalities really moved to tears by an ancient Chinese story 1315 01:15:39.039 --> 01:15:40.279 about sacrifice. 1316 01:15:40.479 --> 01:15:41.920 You mention couraged Lisha. 1317 01:15:42.000 --> 01:15:44.640 You mentioned that you're going to be in Ohio mid February, 1318 01:15:44.760 --> 01:15:47.520 so we're not that far away from mid February. We're 1319 01:15:47.560 --> 01:15:51.479 closing in.

And look, Michael Waltz, Congressman, I 1373 01:18:46.680 --> 01:18:47.840 did a children's book with him. 1374 01:18:47.840 --> 01:18:49.319 He's going to be National Security Advisor. 1375 01:18:49.560 --> 01:18:51.399 He luckily doesn't have to sit there and deal with 1376 01:18:51.600 --> 01:18:54.439 doesn't have to go through a confirmation here. But look, 1377 01:18:54.560 --> 01:18:57.479 this is what the American people wanted. They wanted an 1378 01:18:57.520 --> 01:19:03.399 overhaul of the establishment of the deep state, of the swamp. 1379 01:19:04.119 --> 01:19:06.520 And I gotta tell you, I'm probably gonna see RFK Jr. 1380 01:19:06.560 --> 01:19:12.560 This week, Tulsi and RFK Junior in particular. The Democrats 1381 01:19:12.640 --> 01:19:14.159 are going to do everything they. 1382 01:19:14.119 --> 01:19:16.039 Can to try to stop these two. 1383 01:19:16.079 --> 01:19:19.159 Which is why everyone listening needs to call their senators 1384 01:19:19.159 --> 01:19:23.680 and call their congressmen, because they cannot have these two 1385 01:19:23.720 --> 01:19:26.199 Democrats escape the plantation. 1386 01:19:26.680 --> 01:19:29.239 They cannot because others may follow. 1387 01:19:29.560 --> 01:19:32.439 I'm looking at you, John Fetterman, I'm looking at you. 1388 01:19:33.039 --> 01:19:35.399 I'm looking at John Ossoff in Georgia. 1389 01:19:36.039 --> 01:19:39.079 They need to make it so painful for. 1390 01:19:39.159 --> 01:19:42.880 RFK Junior and Tulsi that no one else will dare 1391 01:19:44.199 --> 01:19:48.720 escape the bankrupt intellectual plantation of liberalism. 1392 01:19:48.800 --> 01:19:51.960 Well has already proven aj that he could be flipped. 1393 01:19:52.039 --> 01:19:54.960 I mean, he just talks common sense when you don't 1394 01:19:55.000 --> 01:19:57.880 hear that out of that party any other time during 1395 01:19:57.880 --> 01:19:58.640 a news cycle. 1396 01:20:00.039 --> 01:20:00.560 That's right. 1397 01:20:00.800 --> 01:20:03.479 But this was a huge deal this election. 1398 01:20:04.000 --> 01:20:07.039 This was a somewhat of a realignment, and it was 1399 01:20:07.079 --> 01:20:12.760 a reset. And the death rattles coming for wokeism, for liberalism, 1400 01:20:12.800 --> 01:20:15.840 for cultural Marxism, and they are going to try to 1401 01:20:16.199 --> 01:20:21.840 really lay some gloves on Tulsi and on RFK Jr. 1402 01:20:22.039 --> 01:20:25.239 And I hate to say this, the audience needs to 1403 01:20:25.279 --> 01:20:34.880 know this. There are some establishment Republican aligned organizations that 1404 01:20:34.960 --> 01:20:39.640 are moving themselves into place to help the Democrats stop 1405 01:20:39.800 --> 01:20:42.159 RFK Junior and Charlsea Gabbert well. 1406 01:20:42.159 --> 01:20:46.039 Of course, because he is no friend to big pharma, 1407 01:20:46.199 --> 01:20:50.600 to big food, to big ag because his whole pitch 1408 01:20:51.359 --> 01:20:54.319 it challenges their business model, So. 1409 01:20:54.359 --> 01:20:55.800 Of course it's try. 1410 01:20:55.880 --> 01:20:59.159 It challenges the poisoning of the United States on behalf 1411 01:20:59.239 --> 01:21:02.439 of our pocket book, It challenges all of that. And look, 1412 01:21:02.880 --> 01:21:08.279 RFK Junior and you know Marco Rubio probably don't agree 1413 01:21:08.279 --> 01:21:09.960 on a whole bunch of things. 1414 01:21:10.279 --> 01:21:12.800 But RFK Junior is not being sent, you know. 1415 01:21:13.159 --> 01:21:17.520 To run uh you know, some pro life group or 1416 01:21:17.520 --> 01:21:21.640 the EPA or the State Department. He's going exactly to 1417 01:21:21.720 --> 01:21:26.399 the place that needs the most disrupting and that is 1418 01:21:26.479 --> 01:21:29.920 you know, the USDA and the National Institutes of Health 1419 01:21:30.000 --> 01:21:31.600 and AHHS. 1420 01:21:32.079 --> 01:21:34.880 He has to go in there. We were taken for 1421 01:21:34.920 --> 01:21:38.199 a ride, ladies and gentlemen. Okay, I see now now 1422 01:21:38.199 --> 01:21:38.520 that we. 1423 01:21:38.560 --> 01:21:41.840 Run the CIA, I see that the lab leak theory, 1424 01:21:42.840 --> 01:21:46.119 the lablak theory. Remember when we were all deplatformed and 1425 01:21:46.199 --> 01:21:51.560 demonetize for the lab leak. Oh yeah, Well guess what 1426 01:21:51.840 --> 01:21:55.920 the CIA is basically saying, you know, it probably escaped 1427 01:21:55.920 --> 01:21:59.239 the lab. Now you know, take the next step. Who 1428 01:21:59.279 --> 01:22:02.199 paid for the lab, who was running the lab, did it. 1429 01:22:02.319 --> 01:22:05.399 Escape or purpose? So those are the next questions. 1430 01:22:05.439 --> 01:22:05.640 You know. 1431 01:22:05.680 --> 01:22:08.720 It's like it's like Musk said when he bought Twitter 1432 01:22:09.680 --> 01:22:12.880 now x he said, Look, most of the conspiracy theories 1433 01:22:12.880 --> 01:22:16.000 people had about Twitter turned out to be true. 1434 01:22:16.800 --> 01:22:20.279 Well, we who paid for the lab, who conducted the research? 1435 01:22:20.720 --> 01:22:25.039 I think now we know why. Anthony Fauci was one 1436 01:22:25.079 --> 01:22:29.680 of Joe Biden's last minute preemptive pardons for any crimeing 1437 01:22:29.760 --> 01:22:32.680 MA have committed going back to back back ten years. 1438 01:22:32.840 --> 01:22:35.279 Gonna go back ten years, just like Hunter with the blownose. 1439 01:22:35.640 --> 01:22:40.680 You know, Hunter blownos got a ten year retroactive party. 1440 01:22:40.880 --> 01:22:44.760 You know, see, people like you Aja need to be 1441 01:22:44.800 --> 01:22:48.960 in the forefront more often because now that Trump's kind 1442 01:22:48.960 --> 01:22:53.359 of a a kinder, gentler Trump, you know, we need 1443 01:22:53.359 --> 01:22:55.760 somebody to tell, we need to we need to say, 1444 01:22:55.840 --> 01:22:58.119 we need to see somebody come up with nicknames. 1445 01:22:58.119 --> 01:23:00.319 You know Trump, Trump has kind of backed a some 1446 01:23:00.399 --> 01:23:05.479 of the nicknames. So you know, blonos Is is definitely 1447 01:23:05.680 --> 01:23:06.720 a great one to say. 1448 01:23:08.520 --> 01:23:10.760 You know, I could probably go into the administration if 1449 01:23:10.760 --> 01:23:11.279 I wanted to. 1450 01:23:11.399 --> 01:23:13.560 I mean, half the White House are my clients. 1451 01:23:13.560 --> 01:23:15.840 But I am much more valuable and can do much 1452 01:23:15.880 --> 01:23:20.359 more damage work in communications from outside. There's certain rules 1453 01:23:20.880 --> 01:23:23.239 that you know, once you're a government employee that you 1454 01:23:23.319 --> 01:23:27.880 have to sort of abide by. So you know, think 1455 01:23:27.920 --> 01:23:30.880 of me as the communications version of a pro bono 1456 01:23:31.039 --> 01:23:34.239 lawyer that you know, I can, I can, I can, 1457 01:23:34.520 --> 01:23:36.239 I can work my own social justice. 1458 01:23:36.279 --> 01:23:39.079 I can work MAGA social justice and. 1459 01:23:39.079 --> 01:23:41.800 Try to get as many of our people confirmed as possible. 1460 01:23:41.840 --> 01:23:43.720 And it's not just the big names. 1461 01:23:45.239 --> 01:23:49.239 It's four thousand people right that are going into you know, 1462 01:23:49.319 --> 01:23:54.800 it's Sergio Gore who's running the PPO office Presidential Personnel Office. 1463 01:23:55.600 --> 01:23:58.720 He's my client and I've known him for you know, 1464 01:23:58.760 --> 01:24:02.399 twenty years, ladies and gentlemen. He was running Winning Team 1465 01:24:02.479 --> 01:24:05.399 Publishing along with Donald Trump Junior for the last you know, 1466 01:24:05.479 --> 01:24:09.880 five years. And that's not just the Trump Coffee table 1467 01:24:09.880 --> 01:24:14.560 books that you see, I'm sure on on Fox it's 1468 01:24:14.600 --> 01:24:19.720 he's done Charlie Kirk's book, Judge, Janine MTG, Carrie Lake, 1469 01:24:20.840 --> 01:24:24.239 Peter Navarro. So so look that's who's in charge of 1470 01:24:24.239 --> 01:24:28.319 the hiring and the firing. That is a stone cold killer. 1471 01:24:29.000 --> 01:24:32.239 Sergio Gore is amazing. So it's not all the names 1472 01:24:32.279 --> 01:24:34.479 that you know, it's some of the names that you're 1473 01:24:34.479 --> 01:24:36.479 going to learn about as we proceed here. 1474 01:24:37.079 --> 01:24:39.920 On a personal level, aj Rice, I wanted to ask you, 1475 01:24:40.239 --> 01:24:45.479 as a relatively new father, is this part of the 1476 01:24:45.600 --> 01:24:48.640 encouragement that you're getting from watching the first week of 1477 01:24:48.680 --> 01:24:53.359 the Trump presidency for your offspring's future. I mean, that's 1478 01:24:53.439 --> 01:24:56.520 that's something that a lot of people have been reticent 1479 01:24:56.680 --> 01:24:59.520 and hesitant to do, is have children because they were 1480 01:24:59.560 --> 01:25:02.560 so unsure of the future and the future is allways unsure, 1481 01:25:02.680 --> 01:25:04.479 and you know that's that's a fact. 1482 01:25:04.880 --> 01:25:07.520 That's only breaks some news for you. Here, break some 1483 01:25:07.560 --> 01:25:07.960 news for you. 1484 01:25:08.039 --> 01:25:10.760 But yeah, my son who was born on January sixth, 1485 01:25:10.760 --> 01:25:12.239 he's an insurrection baby. 1486 01:25:13.159 --> 01:25:15.159 He is doing great. We are always fighting. 1487 01:25:15.279 --> 01:25:17.600 Like Reagan said, you know, we're only one generation away 1488 01:25:17.600 --> 01:25:22.359 from losing it all. But we have to fight for 1489 01:25:22.600 --> 01:25:25.159 not just our own children, but everyone else's and children 1490 01:25:25.239 --> 01:25:29.000 yet unborn.

But we have here from the Center 1508 01:26:21.560 --> 01:26:26.119 for Immigration Studies CIS dot org, the one and only 1509 01:26:26.199 --> 01:26:31.479 Todd Bensman, author of books like Overrun about our Southern Border. 1510 01:26:31.600 --> 01:26:32.920 He has been on our southern border. 1511 01:26:32.960 --> 01:26:37.560 He's been in the countries that are feeding the mass 1512 01:26:38.359 --> 01:26:42.239 illegal invasion that has been occurring over the last for 1513 01:26:43.079 --> 01:26:46.560 in earnest for a long time, but especially the last 1514 01:26:46.600 --> 01:26:49.199 four years. And it's got to be refreshing to see 1515 01:26:49.239 --> 01:26:52.479 the changes that Trump has brought already along with Tom 1516 01:26:52.520 --> 01:26:55.640 Holman and Ice, Todd Bensman, how are you. 1517 01:26:56.800 --> 01:26:58.479 I'm doing great, Thanks for having me. 1518 01:26:58.800 --> 01:27:01.840 No new piece you were just working on and I 1519 01:27:01.880 --> 01:27:04.920 haven't seen it completely yet. I'm just looking at the 1520 01:27:04.960 --> 01:27:09.159 headline pro Haamas anti Jewish college demonstrators here on visas 1521 01:27:09.479 --> 01:27:13.800 are I notice that their US welcome is over? And 1522 01:27:14.159 --> 01:27:16.840 that was something that was talked about before the election 1523 01:27:17.239 --> 01:27:20.520 as well. While these protests were fomenting with people who 1524 01:27:20.560 --> 01:27:23.199 were not even citizens, and in many cases weren't even 1525 01:27:23.359 --> 01:27:26.960 students of the colleges where they were protesting, right. 1526 01:27:28.319 --> 01:27:31.880 Right, And this is one of three pieces that I'm 1527 01:27:32.439 --> 01:27:35.039 It's the first of three pieces that I'm writing about 1528 01:27:35.680 --> 01:27:38.640 one of the more interesting of the Trump probably the 1529 01:27:38.640 --> 01:27:41.840 most interesting of the Trump executive orders that he signed, 1530 01:27:43.439 --> 01:27:47.680 having to do with national security vetting. We all remember 1531 01:27:47.720 --> 01:27:52.960 extreme vetting right from Trump one point zero, where you know, 1532 01:27:53.000 --> 01:27:57.920 he endeavored to make sure that you know, all visa applicants, 1533 01:27:58.079 --> 01:28:04.399 especially from certain Muslim countries, were vetted thoroughly before they 1534 01:28:04.399 --> 01:28:07.600 were approved for entry. And then of course they tried 1535 01:28:07.600 --> 01:28:11.000 to put a program of that together and Biden administration 1536 01:28:11.119 --> 01:28:15.920 eliminated all of it. And now the new executive order 1537 01:28:17.239 --> 01:28:20.880 endeavors to really restore all of that and go much 1538 01:28:20.960 --> 01:28:28.760 farther to include targeting for visa revocation. All of those 1539 01:28:28.880 --> 01:28:34.399 pro terrorist Hamas demonstrators that we saw on campuses all 1540 01:28:34.439 --> 01:28:37.399 across the country. They're still out there now, a lot 1541 01:28:37.439 --> 01:28:42.439 of them hiding their faces, but those who can be identified, 1542 01:28:42.439 --> 01:28:46.760 it looks like the administration is planning to hunt them down, 1543 01:28:47.520 --> 01:28:50.800 take away their visas, and deport them if you read 1544 01:28:50.840 --> 01:28:54.960 the language of this presidential order. This is a piece 1545 01:28:55.000 --> 01:28:59.159 you can find at CIS dot org CIS dot org 1546 01:28:59.239 --> 01:29:04.039 under my name Bensman. There's a couple more pieces coming 1547 01:29:05.399 --> 01:29:11.199 about decoding this counter terrorism order at the border, one 1548 01:29:11.239 --> 01:29:13.159 of which is that this is the one that will 1549 01:29:13.199 --> 01:29:17.640 allow for the return of the so called travel ban. 1550 01:29:18.479 --> 01:29:22.399 You probably know it as the quote unquote misnamed Muslim 1551 01:29:22.479 --> 01:29:29.159 travel ban, although it's not that that's coming back too, 1552 01:29:29.199 --> 01:29:33.359 and that will probably include many more than just the 1553 01:29:33.399 --> 01:29:38.800 initial thirteen countries that were on that list. Nobody will 1554 01:29:38.840 --> 01:29:41.920 get to come in from those countries. In fact, all 1555 01:29:42.000 --> 01:29:46.199 refugee visas are suspended right now, yay, for the next 1556 01:29:46.239 --> 01:29:50.159 four months. So things have really just as Kamala Harris 1557 01:29:50.239 --> 01:29:51.840 used to say, turn the page. 1558 01:29:52.479 --> 01:29:54.479 Well, I mean, it's one hundred and eighty degree difference, 1559 01:29:54.520 --> 01:29:58.359 and we all knew it would be. It became almost 1560 01:29:58.439 --> 01:30:02.840 that when Iden got into office in twenty twenty one 1561 01:30:03.000 --> 01:30:06.560 and you took away remain in Mexico and all the 1562 01:30:06.600 --> 01:30:11.159 other policies that President Trump had implemented, campaigned on and implemented. 1563 01:30:11.479 --> 01:30:14.560 That's the thing that the guy follows and tries to 1564 01:30:14.600 --> 01:30:18.359 fulfill his campaign promises. Donald Trump, he truly does, and 1565 01:30:18.439 --> 01:30:21.039 he's been no stranger at that in this past week. 1566 01:30:21.279 --> 01:30:26.159 Todd Bensman, But did you hear the story? And I've 1567 01:30:26.279 --> 01:30:28.720 not been able to confirm this anywhere else but it 1568 01:30:28.760 --> 01:30:32.119 doesn't surprise me or astound me at all that the 1569 01:30:32.159 --> 01:30:36.840 Marxist school teacher turned mayor of Chicago was actually letting 1570 01:30:37.000 --> 01:30:39.800 illegals who had committed crimes, who were actually in jail, 1571 01:30:40.439 --> 01:30:42.800 out on the streets so Ice couldn't find them. Have 1572 01:30:42.880 --> 01:30:45.159 you heard that? And does that sound like something that 1573 01:30:46.760 --> 01:30:52.159 the anti American leaders in these places, these sanctuary states 1574 01:30:52.159 --> 01:30:52.920 and cities would do. 1575 01:30:54.640 --> 01:31:00.560 That's well established policy and practice in big blue democratic cities. 1576 01:31:01.479 --> 01:31:04.119 They just did it. In Boston. We had ice raids there. 1577 01:31:04.640 --> 01:31:08.800 Fox News was along on those raids and was able 1578 01:31:08.840 --> 01:31:11.560 to interview and film the kind of people that they 1579 01:31:11.560 --> 01:31:15.680 were picking up, all of whom had been released from 1580 01:31:15.800 --> 01:31:22.960 Boston area jails just recently into the community. Instead of 1581 01:31:23.000 --> 01:31:26.560 them just phoning ICE to come get them, we had 1582 01:31:26.600 --> 01:31:27.439 to hunt them down. 1583 01:31:27.560 --> 01:31:28.119 Ice had to. 1584 01:31:28.079 --> 01:31:32.600 Hunt them down. And they were murderers and child molesters 1585 01:31:32.720 --> 01:31:35.960 and rapists. And one of the guys was a gangbanger, 1586 01:31:36.119 --> 01:31:39.479 you know, arrested seventeen times and kept getting released. 1587 01:31:39.119 --> 01:31:39.880 And nobody would call it. 1588 01:31:39.960 --> 01:31:45.279 Oh the guy from Haiti, Yeah, he's quoted saying thank 1589 01:31:45.319 --> 01:31:48.439 you Joe Biden, thank you Obama, You've been great, and 1590 01:31:48.720 --> 01:31:51.960 f Trump and they have, They have that on film 1591 01:31:51.960 --> 01:31:55.359 and all of these thousands. 1592 01:31:55.760 --> 01:32:00.000 There were supposedly seven hundred and fifty thousand criminal aids 1593 01:32:00.479 --> 01:32:03.560 running around the country, a huge number of them in 1594 01:32:03.600 --> 01:32:08.600 these blue cities whose leaders believe that it's somehow moral 1595 01:32:09.359 --> 01:32:13.439 to not call ice. When bad guys are getting out 1596 01:32:13.439 --> 01:32:16.359 of jail, they release them into the count, into the 1597 01:32:16.399 --> 01:32:21.920 country to recommit against their own people. It's unbelievable that 1598 01:32:22.000 --> 01:32:26.560 they think there's some political advantage in this, but they're not. 1599 01:32:28.079 --> 01:32:32.159 Indeed. Uh are you are you? Where are you now? Geographically? 1600 01:32:32.319 --> 01:32:36.079 I'm in Austin, Austin, Texas. Okay, are you making any 1601 01:32:36.159 --> 01:32:39.279 plan trips to the border anytime soon? 1602 01:32:40.039 --> 01:32:40.479 Yeah? 1603 01:32:40.560 --> 01:32:44.239 I probably will go down pretty soon. I just it's 1604 01:32:44.399 --> 01:32:48.680 it's definitely on my immediate horizon. Probably we'll go down 1605 01:32:48.680 --> 01:32:52.640 there to see what's happening on the other side. All right, Well, 1606 01:32:52.760 --> 01:32:55.279 I always but I will tell you this, Yeah, that 1607 01:32:55.359 --> 01:32:58.000 the number but my sources are telling me that the 1608 01:32:58.119 --> 01:33:02.359 numbers of crossers is down below five hundred an. 1609 01:33:02.399 --> 01:33:05.680 Age order length. I saw that. 1610 01:33:06.920 --> 01:33:10.359 Yeah, that's remarkable, because well, I don't think we've seen 1611 01:33:10.399 --> 01:33:14.680 that in decades, even even at the best Trump order. 1612 01:33:14.720 --> 01:33:18.359 I don't think we had numbers that low. I'm checking 1613 01:33:18.359 --> 01:33:21.239 that out exactly what the history is on that, but 1614 01:33:21.319 --> 01:33:23.399 we may and you know, my sources are telling me 1615 01:33:23.439 --> 01:33:25.840 they expect the trajectory to go down to two hundred 1616 01:33:25.880 --> 01:33:29.560 a day, which is just unbelievable. And the reason is 1617 01:33:29.600 --> 01:33:33.119 because they just simply flip the switch on a couple 1618 01:33:33.199 --> 01:33:38.199 of policies to twelve F go Google to twelve F 1619 01:33:38.439 --> 01:33:41.680 of the i NA that has been available to the 1620 01:33:41.680 --> 01:33:44.920 Biden administration the entire time. 1621 01:33:45.239 --> 01:33:46.560 They could have done it at any time. 1622 01:33:46.600 --> 01:33:51.119 They did not need a big Senate bill, bipartisan, comprehensive 1623 01:33:51.199 --> 01:33:54.159 Senate nothing, They just needed to do to twelve F. 1624 01:33:55.000 --> 01:33:55.720 That's what they're doing. 1625 01:33:55.800 --> 01:34:00.720 They're pushing everybody back with no chance for asylum, and 1626 01:34:00.720 --> 01:34:04.840 that is having an incredible impact on the other side 1627 01:34:04.840 --> 01:34:09.159 among the migrants because they know that their money investments 1628 01:34:09.199 --> 01:34:11.039 are not going to get them over the border. They're 1629 01:34:11.039 --> 01:34:14.560 going to get shipped back to Mexico, and so they're 1630 01:34:14.600 --> 01:34:16.000 staying home or going home. 1631 01:34:16.359 --> 01:34:21.359 Yeah, are you planning on seeing a lot of self deportation, Tod. 1632 01:34:22.600 --> 01:34:25.760 Well, I've heard about that. There's some of that. I 1633 01:34:25.760 --> 01:34:30.079 don't know how well documented that is. That people in 1634 01:34:30.159 --> 01:34:33.239 the United States that are here illegally. If we catch 1635 01:34:33.239 --> 01:34:36.359 you and have to deport you, we're going to put 1636 01:34:36.359 --> 01:34:39.000 a big ten year ban on you from ever coming 1637 01:34:39.039 --> 01:34:43.000 in legally. So there's this idea, and that's on purpose 1638 01:34:43.079 --> 01:34:45.640 to sort of induce people to just go home on 1639 01:34:45.720 --> 01:34:48.800 their own and save us the trouble. And that way 1640 01:34:48.840 --> 01:34:53.520 you could potentially apply to come in legally and do 1641 01:34:53.560 --> 01:34:54.319 it the right way. 1642 01:34:54.439 --> 01:34:55.800 But I don't know what the number. 1643 01:34:55.840 --> 01:34:58.880 That's such a new phenomenon that's definitely worth. 1644 01:34:58.600 --> 01:35:02.239 Watching, absolutely and I know that you'll be there watching 1645 01:35:02.319 --> 01:35:05.960 it and reporting on it CIS dot org.

The wild Man chimes in 1803 01:42:29.079 --> 01:42:34.760 last next on seven hundred WLW Sports Commando, the last 1804 01:42:34.960 --> 01:42:37.880 gasp of this night cap. This is literally one more 1805 01:42:37.920 --> 01:42:41.319 for the road and then we're hitting the bricks at midnight. 1806 01:42:41.560 --> 01:42:45.119 But between now and then, let us talk to the 1807 01:42:45.159 --> 01:42:49.880 sports Commando, the wild Man, Dennis Wildman Walker for a 1808 01:42:49.920 --> 01:42:52.960 few moments of what is And I started the show 1809 01:42:53.000 --> 01:42:57.000 tonight wild Man by saying that a lot of people 1810 01:42:57.039 --> 01:42:59.439 are not happy with me right now, and it has 1811 01:42:59.520 --> 01:43:00.960 nothing to do with political views. 1812 01:43:01.000 --> 01:43:02.760 It has to do with the fact that. 1813 01:43:02.720 --> 01:43:06.079 I'm a Kansas City Chief supporter and everybody has the 1814 01:43:06.159 --> 01:43:08.960 taste of sour grapes in their mouth, and I just 1815 01:43:09.000 --> 01:43:10.479 think they need to grow up. 1816 01:43:10.600 --> 01:43:14.000 What do you say, Well, they're already throwing at the 1817 01:43:14.039 --> 01:43:15.159 conspiracy things. 1818 01:43:15.159 --> 01:43:16.399 I'm sure you're well aware of. 1819 01:43:18.119 --> 01:43:22.319 Well, I mean, if you lose and you legitimately lose, 1820 01:43:22.359 --> 01:43:25.479 and some people are saying that these teams that Kansas 1821 01:43:25.520 --> 01:43:28.039 City have beaten, some of them haven't legitimately lost, so 1822 01:43:28.079 --> 01:43:30.600 I understand. So maybe it's like a Trump thing in 1823 01:43:30.640 --> 01:43:35.399 twenty twenty four or twenty twenty. But no, if you lose, 1824 01:43:36.119 --> 01:43:40.520 you find reasons beyond yourself as to why you lost. 1825 01:43:40.680 --> 01:43:43.159 And these people are doing that right now. And it's 1826 01:43:43.199 --> 01:43:44.680 so fun for me to watch. 1827 01:43:45.439 --> 01:43:46.600 Oh, I bet it is. 1828 01:43:47.039 --> 01:43:50.079 That's not surprising. That's the way it usually is, especially 1829 01:43:50.840 --> 01:43:54.000 at sports. They're always looking for a different angle instead 1830 01:43:54.039 --> 01:43:56.079 of being like being out played. But we have our 1831 01:43:56.840 --> 01:44:00.720 we have our Super Bowl participants, the Philadelphia Eagles and 1832 01:44:00.760 --> 01:44:03.159 the Kansas City Chiefs.

Right, 1853 01:45:07.279 --> 01:45:12.039 the champions champions different super Bowl right, exactly, exactly. They 1854 01:45:12.039 --> 01:45:16.359 always point to the championship they won before they let 1855 01:45:16.359 --> 01:45:19.680 the AFC Boys play with them in a super Bowl. 1856 01:45:19.720 --> 01:45:22.199 You're talking about you're talking about pat Riley the three. 1857 01:45:22.800 --> 01:45:24.079 Yeah, that too. 1858 01:45:24.119 --> 01:45:25.079 So somebody's gonna be something. 1859 01:45:25.119 --> 01:45:26.640 That's what I said.

If they don't win, all bets are off, 1878 01:46:18.960 --> 01:46:19.560 and we're just. 1879 01:46:21.319 --> 01:46:22.000 Off. Bets are off. 1880 01:46:22.039 --> 01:46:23.600 But I'm telling you right now, the Chiefs are not 1881 01:46:23.640 --> 01:46:25.119 going to beat the Philadelphia Eagles. 1882 01:46:25.199 --> 01:46:25.720 I'm afraid. 1883 01:46:25.720 --> 01:46:28.439 You see how they destroyed you, see how they destroyed Washington. 1884 01:46:28.600 --> 01:46:31.319 You got to stop someone, Saguan Barkley. Good luck trying 1885 01:46:31.359 --> 01:46:33.720 to stop that guy, Jalen Hurts. Why he is not 1886 01:46:33.720 --> 01:46:37.239 Pat Mahomes. He gets the job done. Squan Barkley. 1887 01:46:37.479 --> 01:46:40.239 Saquon Barkley on the first offensive play of the game, 1888 01:46:40.359 --> 01:46:44.840 rolls sixty yards for a touchdown the first play from scrimmage. 1889 01:46:45.319 --> 01:46:49.960 And then you go, okay, well that that does happen 1890 01:46:50.000 --> 01:46:52.359 with Sequan from time to time, but surely he won't 1891 01:46:52.399 --> 01:46:52.600 be that. 1892 01:46:52.680 --> 01:46:54.399 They won't let him be that dominant the rest of 1893 01:46:54.439 --> 01:46:57.680 the game. They had no choice, and you got to pick. 1894 01:46:57.720 --> 01:47:02.119 You got to pick your poison, Jalen, Yeah, Sequon Barkley. 1895 01:47:02.960 --> 01:47:05.640 Uh And and there are numerous other weapons that the 1896 01:47:05.680 --> 01:47:10.479 Eagles have to bring to the battle list. I predicted 1897 01:47:10.600 --> 01:47:13.520 I thought Washington was on a real roll wild man, 1898 01:47:13.720 --> 01:47:16.319 Oh we all did, we all did, yes, And so 1899 01:47:16.680 --> 01:47:20.119 I predicted Washington would beat the Eagles, and the Chiefs 1900 01:47:20.159 --> 01:47:23.880 would prevail at home against the Bills again and it 1901 01:47:23.920 --> 01:47:28.239 would be washed. I had Jaden Daniels actually being the 1902 01:47:28.239 --> 01:47:31.640 first rookie quarterback to win a Super Bowl, not just 1903 01:47:31.760 --> 01:47:34.520 start a super Bowl, but why I predicted they would 1904 01:47:34.520 --> 01:47:37.319 beat the Chiefs. But now I got to rethink everything, 1905 01:47:37.640 --> 01:47:40.319 and what I saw out of Philadelphia as a Chiefs 1906 01:47:40.319 --> 01:47:42.720 fan scares the holy bejeebers out of me. 1907 01:47:43.399 --> 01:47:45.039 Well that if all the Eagles got to do is 1908 01:47:45.079 --> 01:47:46.439 go back and look at the second half of how 1909 01:47:46.439 --> 01:47:48.960 Buffalo attacked them. They attacked them with the run while 1910 01:47:48.960 --> 01:47:51.520 they're running game, is okay? It isn't, Sir Quon Barkley. 1911 01:47:52.000 --> 01:47:54.359 And then I think they they'll see something on the film. Well, 1912 01:47:54.479 --> 01:47:56.520 so wouldn't get Barkley. We'll get some holes up for 1913 01:47:56.600 --> 01:47:57.199 Barkley here. 1914 01:47:57.760 --> 01:47:59.359 Oh yeah, no question about it. 1915 01:48:00.039 --> 01:48:03.640 Is there anything that surprised you in either game yesterday? 1916 01:48:04.439 --> 01:48:04.720 No? 1917 01:48:04.840 --> 01:48:05.920 Not really, not really. 1918 01:48:06.000 --> 01:48:08.359 I mean, I knew it would be toe to toe with 1919 01:48:07.560 --> 01:48:09.000 the with the Bills. 1920 01:48:09.039 --> 01:48:09.840 I love to. 1921 01:48:09.800 --> 01:48:12.600 Say the fourth and one UH calls by the UH 1922 01:48:13.239 --> 01:48:15.479 by the Bills coach that they you know, he's willing 1923 01:48:15.479 --> 01:48:17.199 to go for it now not eve percent of the time, 1924 01:48:17.239 --> 01:48:20.520 and usually it's been successful. I find it ironic that 1925 01:48:20.600 --> 01:48:23.039 the game, the game is put out of reach by 1926 01:48:23.079 --> 01:48:26.119 a former Bengal who was in there for the first 1927 01:48:26.119 --> 01:48:26.800 time all day. 1928 01:48:27.039 --> 01:48:31.600 He catches a pass, rhyme, p Ryme, and. 1929 01:48:31.560 --> 01:48:33.920 He getches the pass. They'll play was an all day 1930 01:48:34.159 --> 01:48:36.119 and sales the victory for the Chiefs. I go, well, 1931 01:48:36.119 --> 01:48:38.319 that's that's poetic right there, right there. 1932 01:48:38.399 --> 01:48:42.840 Well, p Ryme was a multi, multi talented running back 1933 01:48:42.880 --> 01:48:45.119 here in Cincinnati. They just didn't have money for him 1934 01:48:45.119 --> 01:48:48.359 on the roster and so he had to go somewhere. 1935 01:48:48.359 --> 01:48:49.640 The clure here. Yeah. 1936 01:48:49.680 --> 01:48:51.760 Yeah, he was a good soldier and a good performer. 1937 01:48:51.880 --> 01:48:56.960 But for me, it all comes down still to the 1938 01:48:57.000 --> 01:49:00.239 magic of Mahomes and the things well here goes. 1939 01:49:00.279 --> 01:49:01.800 So you had to mention that, and I got to 1940 01:49:01.880 --> 01:49:05.399 tell you that Tony Romo's mad love for Mahomes is 1941 01:49:05.439 --> 01:49:08.720 flat out sickening, sickening. Do we have to hear him anymore? 1942 01:49:09.039 --> 01:49:11.000 Or are we done with that? Because Tony Romo's man 1943 01:49:11.039 --> 01:49:13.119 love for him. And that's off the how. 1944 01:49:14.439 --> 01:49:17.159 You mentioned no home on Wildman wild Man, you mentioned 1945 01:49:17.159 --> 01:49:17.920 Tony Romo. 1946 01:49:19.199 --> 01:49:20.640 H I much prefer. 1947 01:49:21.239 --> 01:49:23.560 In one season, tom Brady has proven to me that 1948 01:49:23.600 --> 01:49:26.279 he's a better color commentator than Tony Romo. 1949 01:49:26.560 --> 01:49:27.279 He's excellent. 1950 01:49:27.319 --> 01:49:32.399 He's very good, and he's breaking he's breaking down. He's 1951 01:49:32.439 --> 01:49:33.079 breaking down. 1952 01:49:33.119 --> 01:49:36.319 He's breaking down stuff on the offense that never gets 1953 01:49:36.359 --> 01:49:40.039 talked about anywhere else on TV during games, and he 1954 01:49:40.159 --> 01:49:43.359 does it not in a tutorial or boring way. 1955 01:49:43.960 --> 01:49:45.359 It's it's very enlightening. 1956 01:49:45.439 --> 01:49:48.239 He I mean, the guy knows it obviously, but he 1957 01:49:48.279 --> 01:49:51.319 can is the difference between knowing something and being able 1958 01:49:51.319 --> 01:49:54.560 to tell somebody about something, and he has both both 1959 01:49:54.600 --> 01:49:56.960 of those as factors in his broadcast. 1960 01:49:57.680 --> 01:50:00.000 And the average football fan appreciates that because he's not 1961 01:50:00.119 --> 01:50:02.640 trying to you know, act so like he's like above 1962 01:50:02.720 --> 01:50:05.520 everybody when he is explaining it. No, Tom Brady, tom 1963 01:50:05.560 --> 01:50:07.199 Brady has done a great, great job. 1964 01:50:07.279 --> 01:50:07.439 Man. 1965 01:50:07.479 --> 01:50:08.359 I like him on the air. 1966 01:50:08.560 --> 01:50:11.760 I mean, my wife the first time she heard Tony Romo, she's, God, 1967 01:50:11.840 --> 01:50:12.920 what's he doing on there? 1968 01:50:13.000 --> 01:50:14.439 I can't stand that guy? 1969 01:50:14.880 --> 01:50:17.800 And you know he's only filling up half the space 1970 01:50:17.920 --> 01:50:21.079 during the broadcast. The only thing I would tell Tom 1971 01:50:21.119 --> 01:50:24.920 Brady it's it's TV. And all these announcers do this 1972 01:50:24.920 --> 01:50:29.560 too much. You don't need to provide every second with 1973 01:50:29.760 --> 01:50:33.640 audio of you because people have pictures, and why don't 1974 01:50:33.680 --> 01:50:36.000 you like the ambience sounds? 1975 01:50:37.479 --> 01:50:39.279 Well, why don't you pass that on to that loud 1976 01:50:39.359 --> 01:50:42.560 mouth ask kissing John Sayda who does the red scams? 1977 01:50:42.560 --> 01:50:44.680 Because that guy doesn't shut up, and he's going to 1978 01:50:44.760 --> 01:50:47.279 tell you everything. And there's a piece of paper on 1979 01:50:47.319 --> 01:50:49.319 the field. Oh, there's a piece of paper on the field. 1980 01:50:49.479 --> 01:50:51.159 I mean, the guy just doesn't shut up, and he's 1981 01:50:51.159 --> 01:50:53.319 the worst. And I hope he I hope he does 1982 01:50:53.359 --> 01:50:55.600 not come back to broadcast red scam, but I think 1983 01:50:55.600 --> 01:50:56.000 he will. 1984 01:50:56.079 --> 01:50:57.119 But he's just horrible. 1985 01:50:57.760 --> 01:51:02.399 So he's the worst, the worst TV reds announcer in history. 1986 01:51:02.560 --> 01:51:04.680 Well, you know, you know, and there's a difference between 1987 01:51:04.800 --> 01:51:07.199 radio and TV.
