Speaker 1: In Hotels are serving up double points for every qualifying

Speaker 2: Now here's the man who's been recognized as radio's best,
Speaker 2: the recipient of not one, but two prestigious Marconi Awards
Speaker 2: for his broadcast exodence, the one and only Bill Cunningham.
Speaker 3: All right, Billy Cunningham, the Great America, and welcome this
Speaker 3: Father's Day night. And we have stuff happening in my left,
Speaker 3: to my right. Everywhere I look, there's problems. There's a
Speaker 3: new wave of missiles from Iran that's going to strike
Speaker 3: somewhere in Israel over the next several minutes. Only takes
Speaker 3: about eleven minutes to get there, and they tend to
Speaker 3: intercept anywhere between eighty to eighty five maybe ninety percent
Speaker 3: of the missiles. So these are director toward shall we say,
Speaker 3: civilian targets. And that's the way the Iranians play that game.
Speaker 3: And we'll talk about that tonight. I have a guest
Speaker 3: coming up later, Professor Uri Kaufman. Professor Uri Kaufman is
Speaker 3: wonderful on these issues about Israel. What we should do,
Speaker 3: what we shouldn't do. Plus, I tried to get them
Speaker 3: on a week or two ago. It didn't happen. But
Speaker 3: later on we have Congressman Warren Davidson here, who's a
Speaker 3: US Army retired, a ranger, went to West Point. He
Speaker 3: was one of two Republicans to vote against the BBB,
Speaker 3: the Big Beautiful Bill, and he's going to lay out
Speaker 3: later on tonight why he voted against it, and also
Speaker 3: his views on Israel and so much more. Also, what's
Speaker 3: happening to the no Kings riots that took place in
Speaker 3: about one hundred American cities? Some of the description in
Speaker 3: Seattle and Portland. How about this one? See if this
Speaker 3: is a peaceful protest. A mob launched commercial grade fireworks,
Speaker 3: smoke grenades, and through rocks at federal law enforcement as
Speaker 3: they broke glass and forcibly entered the ice attention facility
Speaker 3: in Seattle. Also the same thing happened in Portland. This
Speaker 3: has sound like a peaceful protest, raised your aunt if
Speaker 3: that's peaceful, And of course the video is terrible. They
Speaker 3: broke open the front doors, the doors and shambles. Suddenly
Speaker 3: they were the Ice officials inside were under attack, able
Speaker 3: to resist, thrown back out that's called a peaceful protest
Speaker 3: by Democrats, just the opposite of what's intended. And it's
Speaker 3: amazing to me how we have major American cities once
Speaker 3: again in rebellion against the federal government, which has happened
Speaker 3: before in the nineteen fifties and sixties. You may recall
Speaker 3: that Eisenhower sent in the federal troops to Little Rock,
Speaker 3: Arkansas because a governor there, I think his name was
Speaker 3: overvill Fabas, is that correct, Democratic governor refused to open
Speaker 3: up the door of Little Rock High School to black kids,
Speaker 3: did not want them to be educated. And George Waller
Speaker 3: stood in the doorway many many years ago ahead on
Speaker 3: some of those girls who were kicked out of the
Speaker 3: Mississippi Georgia, and also Meredith had him on from Little Rock, Arkansas,
Speaker 3: and maybe the fiftieth anniversary of those things happening, and
Speaker 3: the Democrats set a time, No, you cannot come in,
Speaker 3: we don't want you to be educated. Federal law doesn't apply.
Speaker 3: It began with Eisenhower, continued all the way through Nixon,
Speaker 3: in which Democrats in the South said that we are
Speaker 3: in rebellion against the federal government. It happened a course
Speaker 3: in the Civil War. You might recall eighteen fifties and sixties,
Speaker 3: the Democrats in the South did not want federal law
Speaker 3: to apply to them, so they started a civil war,
Speaker 3: and that turned out. The Democrats acted up in the South,
Speaker 3: resulting in a great defeat. Thank god, the Confederacy went down,
Speaker 3: the country was joined and at the hip, and we
Speaker 3: went on. But if the Democrats had their way, they'd
Speaker 3: have a dominion. They'd have certain parts of the United
Speaker 3: States of America controlled by the Democrats in the South,
Speaker 3: and that gave them the ability after eighteen seventy six,
Speaker 3: after rutherfer B. Hayes was elected through the electoral College
Speaker 3: after about twenty five votes, because he agreed to take
Speaker 3: the federal troops out of the South. So the Democrats,
Speaker 3: who were in rebellion against the federal government under Abraham
Speaker 3: Lincoln some ten years after the war ended, guess what.
Speaker 3: They only would allow the country to continue in electoral
Speaker 3: college if the Feds took all the federal troops out
Speaker 3: of the South, so they could institute a brand new
Speaker 3: apartheid which was called the ku Klux Klan and lynching
Speaker 3: of black men and women, raping black girls, etc. That's
Speaker 3: what the Democrats did then started in eighteen fifties, eighteen sixties,
Speaker 3: eighteen seventies. Now there were lynchings up until about nineteen twenty.
Speaker 3: By what political party raise your hand if you know
Speaker 3: the answer, I see lots of hands going up. It
Speaker 3: was the Democratic Party who said that federal law doesn't
Speaker 3: apply here. Civil Rights Act was filibustered by the Democrats,
Speaker 3: finally passed because of the Republican votes, and certain other
Speaker 3: laws were applied. But even then the Democrats were in
Speaker 3: rebellion in the South, went on and on and on
Speaker 3: because they didn't believe brown versus board of education should apply.
Speaker 3: So the Democrats from eighteen fifty, eighteen sixty, eighteen seventy,
Speaker 3: eighteen eighty, eighteen ninety, nineteen ten, nineteen twenty held his
Speaker 3: great video of the Democrats wearing Ku Klux Plan outfits
Speaker 3: marching up and down Pennsylvania Avenue. They were all the Democrats.
Speaker 3: So then jump ahead one generation to the nineteen fifties
Speaker 3: and sixties. Democrats said, no, federal law doesn't apply. We're
Speaker 3: not going to let black kids to be educated, to
Speaker 3: keep them in their own black schools. So it took
Speaker 3: a while, but it took another ten to fifteen years.
Speaker 3: Finally the hearts and minds of the George Wallaces, the
Speaker 3: Ravil Fabases, and the Senator Stennis and Robert KKK burd
Speaker 3: in West Virginia was finally changed, and the Democrats finally
Speaker 3: laid down and said, okay, federal and here we are
Speaker 3: again twenty first century. The Democrats are now in rebellion again,
Speaker 3: like Brandon Johnson, like Karen Bass, like Gavin Newsom, They're
Speaker 3: in rebellion against the federal government, saying, you know, federal law,
Speaker 3: it doesn't apply here. Democrats and Republicans passed numerous statutes
Speaker 3: implementing federal civil rights statutes and also immigration, and Democrats
Speaker 3: and Republicans have laws.
Speaker 4: Now.
Speaker 3: Joe Biden ignored the law. But guess what Barack Husain
Speaker 3: Obama did not. You may remember that Obama was known
Speaker 3: as the deporter in chief, but the Democratic Party stood
Speaker 3: down because the saintly one Barack Husein Obama deported about
Speaker 3: five point four million illegals in his eight years. He
Speaker 3: got that right, five point four million, which is about
Speaker 3: seven hundred thousand every year. At this point, Donald Trump
Speaker 3: has deported eighty five thousand. He's fighting tooth and nail
Speaker 3: to enforce federal law. Well Obama did, and did the
Speaker 3: media cover it. Did the Democrats in the city's rebel
Speaker 3: against the sainted one Barack Hussein?
Speaker 5: Obama? Absolutely not.
Speaker 3: But now we got Donald Trump in the White House
Speaker 3: and he's saying, you know what, there's laws that say
Speaker 3: that immigration is conducted legally in one fashion, you can't
Speaker 3: walk across the southern border. And so now we have
Speaker 3: ICE agents, federal law enforcement, you have US marshals, you
Speaker 3: have the FBI, you have certain parts of the National
Speaker 3: Guard saying, you know what, once again the Democrats are
Speaker 3: in rebellion.
Speaker 5: Here we go in rebellion.
Speaker 3: We're not going to let federal law be enforced. And
Speaker 3: among the most absurd things I've seen or heard as
Speaker 3: are the comments of people like Mayor Karen Back and
Speaker 3: Gavin Newsom who says, look, everything was peaceful, nice and quiet,
Speaker 3: not much going on. Life was good, and all of
Speaker 3: a sudden, the National Guard showed up and lapd La
Speaker 3: County Sheriff, Ice, FBI by the way, and they were
Speaker 3: enforcing the law. They were upholding the law, and everything
Speaker 3: was peaceful until what until law enforcement showed up in
Speaker 3: big numbers. You can call law enforcement by a bunch
Speaker 3: of different names. How about ICE, how about FBI? How
Speaker 3: about their secret service? How about US Marshall Service atf
Speaker 3: LA County, City of Los Angeles, LAPD, CHIPS, California Highway Patrol.
Speaker 3: They're all law enforcement, and everything was so peaceful. Everything
Speaker 3: there was none of the crap going on that we
Speaker 3: saw on TV. We did not see, by the way,
Speaker 3: chunks of concrete thrown at law enforcement. We didn't see
Speaker 3: commercial grade fireworks fired at law enforcement. We didn't see
Speaker 3: smoke grenades through with them, and none of that we saw.
Speaker 3: But everybody was real peaceful until law enforcement showed up.
Speaker 3: And then what happened? Then they got violent all of
Speaker 3: a sudden. I'm gonna be violent. I don't know about you.
Speaker 3: But when I drive up and down I seventy one
Speaker 3: or I seventy five, or I five or I ninety five,
Speaker 3: and I'm going fifty miles an hour, which is maybe
Speaker 3: if I'm going fifty five on Interstate Highway, let's say
Speaker 3: that's the speed limit. But as soon as I see
Speaker 3: law enforcement, I floor it. I go one hundred miles
Speaker 3: an hour. That cop has angered me so much I'm
Speaker 3: gonna break the law and make him pull me over.
Speaker 5: Does any of this make sense to you?
Speaker 3: How's a peaceful quote protest turn into a riot because
Speaker 3: law enforcement is present? The presence of law enforcement should
Speaker 3: calm down things even more correctly?
Speaker 5: Right am? I? Right about this?
Speaker 3: Danny Gleeson, my producer, tells me that when he sees
Speaker 3: a cop, when he sees law enforcement, the last thing
Speaker 3: he wants to do is physically assault and beat them.
Speaker 5: He don't want to do that, he says.
Speaker 3: You know what, it's not There's a person behind that badge,
Speaker 3: a man or a woman who has a home, as
Speaker 3: a husband, as a wife, has kids, grandkids, sworn to
Speaker 3: pull the law.
Speaker 5: I don't want to hurt that person.
Speaker 3: But Karen Bass and Gavin Newsom, who give up any
Speaker 3: chance he had to be the president, is trying to
Speaker 3: sell the idea that things were peaceful until law enforcement
Speaker 3: showed up, and once they showed up, that incentivized the
Speaker 3: so called peaceful protesters to become rioters, and then you
Speaker 3: have to have a curfew and all that kind of stuff.
Speaker 3: What difference does it make if the commander of the
Speaker 3: National Guard is Trump or Newsom, the National Guard is present,
Speaker 3: The last thing I'm going to do is act up
Speaker 3: and commit crimes against those men and women.
Speaker 5: Are you going to do that?
Speaker 3: Raise your hand if you think you're peaceful until you
Speaker 3: see a copper law enforce horsemen, then you get violent.
Speaker 5: Who thinks like this, Well, the same.
Speaker 3: Party that gave us the Civil War, the same party
Speaker 3: that gave us lynchings in the Ku Klux Klan, the
Speaker 3: same party who barred black kids from entering.
Speaker 5: Public schools in the South.
Speaker 3: It's the same party now that's in rebellion against the
Speaker 3: federal government. And who's the threat to democracy? From the media,
Speaker 3: it's always Republicans and Donald Trump. How about this notion.
Speaker 3: We just had a rather contentious national election, would you agree?
Speaker 3: And Trump's not been in office five months yet. From
Speaker 3: the time he took office until now, he's been on
Speaker 3: withering assault by the Democrats and by the mainstream media,
Speaker 3: who have said to you and me that voted for
Speaker 3: this guy. I voted for him three times. I'd vote
Speaker 3: for him four times if I could. That we're wrong
Speaker 3: in our selection, that it is a threat to democracy
Speaker 3: when people vote.
Speaker 5: Does that make sense to you.
Speaker 3: I'm hearing that Trump was elected did by he got
Speaker 3: seventy seven seventy eight million votes, and Kamala Harris sadly
Speaker 3: got seventy four million votes. So my simple Deer Park
Speaker 3: High school man tells me that's about one hundred and
Speaker 3: fifty two million people voted. Is that democracy when people vote,
Speaker 3: when you look at all the facts, all the circumstances,
Speaker 3: the candidates, their record, what they propose, what they've done
Speaker 3: in the past, what they might do in the future.
Speaker 3: And we had a big national election, didn't we, And
Speaker 3: that was the we are the face of democracy, and
Speaker 3: we voted overwhelmingly for Donald Trump to be in the
Speaker 3: White House. Gave them all seven battleground states electoral votes.
Speaker 3: I don't know about three hundred and twenty. But see,
Speaker 3: we're wrong because Democrats say, the Democratic Party of slavery
Speaker 3: and the ku Klux Klan and lynchings and race discrimination
Speaker 3: is now rebellion with the idea that federal law does
Speaker 3: not apply in one hundred American cities.
Speaker 5: Don't.
Speaker 3: In fact, if you bring up the fact that Donald
Speaker 3: Trump was free elected, that is a threat to democracy.
Speaker 3: Does that make sense to you? Does how is that
Speaker 3: a threat to democracy? We freely vote for someone that
Speaker 3: we want. Now is Donald Trump perfect absolutely not. I'd
Speaker 3: vote for him four times five, both because I like
Speaker 3: his policies on the southern border. I like his policies
Speaker 3: with the military, and he's trying to incentivize the economy
Speaker 3: through modest tax cuts to cause more. In fact, right now,
Speaker 3: the last month in May again, we're have about a
Speaker 3: two percent inflation yearly rate.
Speaker 5: We're right there.
Speaker 3: And I'm told I have a guest coming on later
Speaker 3: on this, Warren Davidson, that he voted against the Big
Speaker 3: Beautiful Bill, but he thinks possibly the next time he'll
Speaker 3: vote for it when certain changes are made. The fact is,
Speaker 3: No Kings was a facade. It was a farce.
Speaker 5: No Kings.
Speaker 3: Donald Trump is trying to get his blueprint through. Disbelieve
Speaker 3: in Congress, the House, and the Senate. He's got to
Speaker 3: work with the House Johnson, he's got to work in
Speaker 3: this Senate with Fune. He has certain executive orders and
Speaker 3: I don't know one hundred federal judges have ruled against him,
Speaker 3: and those cases are all on appeal. And he's always said,
Speaker 3: if the US Supreme Court rules a certain way, I'm
Speaker 3: gonna follow what they tell me to do. What king
Speaker 3: does that, What King gives power to the House, to
Speaker 3: the Senate, and to the federal judiciary. So you have
Speaker 3: to make up a lie because the truth doesn't work.
Speaker 3: Let's continue. We have thousands on hold already, and somehow
Speaker 3: someone's got to say. Looking to my left and right now,
Speaker 3: Israel is being hit with another barrage. And it's approximately
Speaker 3: five nineteen am time as SUNRISEUS is happening. And once
Speaker 3: again it said I'm gonna deal with Israel too a
Speaker 3: little bit, especially lastly with Professor Yuri Kaufman. But step
Speaker 3: back and look at this. The president has been in
Speaker 3: office for less than five months and he's doing exactly
Speaker 3: what he promised to do. Promise is made and promises kept.
Speaker 3: It is a threat to democracy when we vote freely
Speaker 3: for a guy the media and the Democrats don't like,
Speaker 3: and they loathe Donald John Trump with a passion far
Speaker 3: exceeding even Richard Nixon, Ronald Reagan or either bushes that
Speaker 3: they hate this guy because he is successful. And all
Speaker 3: I know is at the Democratic Party as we speak,
Speaker 3: including mayor, the so called mayor of Chicago, who said
Speaker 3: right now that he will not enforce federal statutes. That's,
Speaker 3: of course, Brandon Johnson, who makes Lori Lightfoot look successful.
Speaker 3: He says that sanctuary policies will continue and that he
Speaker 3: will not assist federal law enforcement whatsoever and doing their job.
Speaker 3: And he's hoard uphold the Constitution, which enacts federal statutes.
Speaker 3: But nonetheless, once again, Brandon Johnson and Kim Bass are
Speaker 3: in rebellion against the federal government refusing to enforce federal law.
Speaker 5: Let's continue, thousands.
Speaker 3: On hold, millions are listening, and we've got to talk
Speaker 3: about Ronnie and war right now. I lit a candle
Speaker 3: at Mass yesterday for the success of Israel and what
Speaker 3: they're doing, and their success today will be our success
Speaker 3: tomorrow in the Middle East. Let's continue with more twenty
Speaker 3: three minutes after the hour, Pray for Israel. Bill Cunningham
Speaker 3: with you every Sunday night. You know, I also would
Speaker 3: note this, Scott Jennings of CNN is somehow stuck in
Speaker 3: Israel and see a galilee yours truly was there about
Speaker 3: two and a half years ago, and thank god, it
Speaker 3: was there two and a half years ago. And now
Speaker 3: they've shut down all the airspace over Israel. You can't
Speaker 3: get in, can't get out. There was a congressional junket
Speaker 3: planned for and about four four or five days to
Speaker 3: leave Wednesday or Thursday. I doubt that's happening at all,
Speaker 3: But Scott Jennings had quite a few lucid moments on CNN.
Speaker 3: May run for the governorship and or the Senate seat
Speaker 3: from Kentucky currently held by the comatose Mitch McConnell. And
Speaker 3: I think it'd be great. He makes more sense than
Speaker 3: most may he makes the only sense on CNN. But
Speaker 3: let's continue. But I kind of laugh at this because
Speaker 3: if you don't laugh, you're gonna cry that the Democratic
Speaker 3: Party and almost every major city, from Governor Pritzer in
Speaker 3: Illinois and Mayor Johnson Bass and then of course Gavin
Speaker 3: Newsom and he was Sharon Kentucky, they're into rebellion against
Speaker 3: the federal government. Now, you would think that's the way
Speaker 3: it would be covered by the mainstream media, but it's not,
Speaker 3: because most of the mainstream media is also in rebellion
Speaker 3: against the federal government because of who we selected to
Speaker 3: be the president. Our selection is a threat to democracy.
Speaker 3: I thought voting was good for democracy.
Speaker 5: No it isn't.
Speaker 3: It's a threat to democracy when seventy seven million Americans
Speaker 3: voted for Donald Trump, who's implementing the policy he said
Speaker 3: he would do. That's a threat to democracy. That's no kings.
Speaker 3: You got to be kidding me, And how stupid you
Speaker 3: have to be to believe that peaceful protesters, whatever the
Speaker 3: hell that is, showed up not have denied blocking highways,
Speaker 3: blocking interstate highways, blocking thoroughfares in Los Angeles, which is
Speaker 3: a failed city state at this point, And they were
Speaker 3: just peaceful as could be until law enforcements showed up.
Speaker 3: Then they started attacking, spitting at them, hurting them. Dozens
Speaker 3: have been injured. Who believes this? Maybe Hillary Clinton believes it.
Speaker 3: I don't believe it. Law enforcement does not trigger me
Speaker 3: to commit crimes against them, But I guess CNNMSNBC they
Speaker 3: actually believe that everyone was peaceful.
Speaker 5: Until law enforcement showed up. Then they went.
Speaker 3: Then they started spitting, hitting, kicking between the legs, throwing rocks,
Speaker 3: breaking up sidewalks, all with the idea of hurting law enforcement.
Speaker 3: They were triggered by law enforcement. They injure men and
Speaker 3: women wearing the uniform. Do you believe this crap? Let's
Speaker 3: continue eight six six six four seven seven three three
Speaker 3: seven Bill Cunningham with you. They won't stop, so they
Speaker 3: must be stopped. I'm courting the greatest of all time,
Speaker 3: the Goat, the talk radio Rush Limball. They will not stop,
Speaker 3: so they must be stopped. And those in charge of
Speaker 3: doing the stopping don't want to stop because it fits
Speaker 3: some political purpose of chaos. See, they won chaos in
Speaker 3: confusion to rain, and they want this to be a
Speaker 3: failed presidency, and they want open borders now. But I've
Speaker 3: played for you previously the remarks of Bill Clinton, and
Speaker 3: of course Missus Hillary Clinton, and Chuck Schumer and Barack Hussain, Obama,
Speaker 3: Nancy Pelosi, they all wrote as recently as twenty oh
Speaker 3: eight or twenty oh nine demanded the borders be shut down.
Speaker 5: In fact, one quote from Nancy Pelosi in twenty oh five,
Speaker 5: broken borders are an oxymoron something as Americans, we cannot tolerate.
Speaker 3: This is Nancy Pelosi. Borders is a definition of a
Speaker 3: nation and our protection as a country. Broken borders that
Speaker 3: doesn't exist. We can't tolerate them. We welcome legal immigrants,
Speaker 3: not illegal immigrants. I'm reading these quotes of Nancy Pelosi.
Speaker 3: Now Donald Trump is doing what Nancy Pelosi Chuck Schumer,
Speaker 3: Bill and Hillary Clinton and Obama wanted to do. And
Speaker 3: they're angry at George. They're angry at Trump for enforcing
Speaker 3: the policies that should have been enforced all along that
Speaker 3: Barack Hussein Obama didn't force. May I say again that
Speaker 3: Obama deported five point four million illegals out of the
Speaker 3: country and there was no Ice attacks. There was no
Speaker 3: FBI that was spit on, There was no US marshals
Speaker 3: punched in the face, there was no blocks of cement
Speaker 3: thrown at them. It simply happened quietly every day of
Speaker 3: every week of every month. Obama said, federal law applies,
Speaker 3: and we're going to enforce the federal law. That's how
Speaker 3: he was the deporter in chief. So what changed, Well,
Speaker 3: what changed is that Democrats started losing a lot of
Speaker 3: national elections by the middle class switching to the Republican Party,
Speaker 3: which means they had a substitute the middle class, working
Speaker 3: class voter with brand new voters who they thought would
Speaker 3: be his spanning. But it turned out the more his
Speaker 3: Spanding's voted for Trump than voted for Harris in the
Speaker 3: last election. So how come it's happening is because it
Speaker 3: is chaos and confusion. The Democrats have no clue what
Speaker 3: they're doing, and as a consequence, we have these continuing riots.
Speaker 3: They're not peaceful protests. It is not peaceful to shoot
Speaker 3: commercial grade our works at law enforcement. It's not peaceful
Speaker 3: to have cement blocks thrown at police office. It is
Speaker 3: not peaceful to take motorbikes and release them into the
Speaker 3: crowd of National guardsmen with the word California on their chest.
Speaker 3: None of that makes any sense. And it will not
Speaker 3: stop until it is stopped. And I see it. It's
Speaker 3: going to be another long, hot summer. There'll be other
Speaker 3: events taking place. And I do have empathy as a
Speaker 3: father for maybe a twelve year old who was brought
Speaker 3: here illegally, unbeknownst to him by a mom or a dad,
Speaker 3: and all of a sudden, the mam and dead are
Speaker 3: gone and the kid is left adrift. Who put that
Speaker 3: child in that circumstance. It wasn't Donald Trump. It was
Speaker 3: the mother and father who came here illegally, knowing the
Speaker 3: consequences of being caught. I'd rather begin with the criminals,
Speaker 3: and I'd rather have some procedure legally down the road
Speaker 3: to allow individuals to come into this country. We have
Speaker 3: them currently under visa protection programs for needed jobs. But
Speaker 3: we have to know who's here and who's not here.
Speaker 3: To let ten point five million under Joe Biden come
Speaker 3: into the country and simply released by Catholic Social Services
Speaker 3: and others all over the country makes no sense. And
Speaker 3: why do we have medicaid for illegal immigrants? Can you
Speaker 3: tell me medicaid? One point three million illegals are on
Speaker 3: medicaid and that could be a load number. So let's
Speaker 3: go to the calls. I have to spend some time
Speaker 3: on Israel. Looking to my left that there's explosions happening
Speaker 3: right now in Tel Aviv. My friend Scott Jennings is
Speaker 3: stuck in the Sea of Galilee, which is about one
Speaker 3: hundred miles north of Tel Aviv by the way, I've
Speaker 3: been there, and explosions near oil refineries in Haifa. So
Speaker 3: that's happening right now. It's about five thirty seven am
Speaker 3: and the sun is just rising. This thing's going to
Speaker 3: get a lot worse before it gets any better. And
Speaker 3: Israel and the West must win this war. Who's assisting Israel?
Speaker 3: How about Saudi Arabia, how about the Air of Emirates,
Speaker 3: how about Turkey. How about Syria assisting Israel and attacking
Speaker 3: Iran to destroy them, which is a death cult.
Speaker 5: Make no mistake.
Speaker 3: If they're able to get weapons of mass destruction like
Speaker 3: a nuclear weapon, they'll use it first against Israel then
Speaker 3: against us. How do I know that, because that's what
Speaker 3: they said, They're going to do death to Israel. They're
Speaker 3: the little Satan, We're the big Satan. There's a death
Speaker 3: cult in charge of the Iranian government, not the Iranian people,
Speaker 3: the Iranian government. And I hope Benjamin Nettin now who's
Speaker 3: call for the Iranian people to arise is going to happen.
Speaker 3: We'll see what occurs. But Israel must win this war.
Speaker 3: How many bunker busting bombs do you need? Is it
Speaker 3: five or ten? You got them? Be two delivery systems,
Speaker 3: you got them, and they've got to win the war,
Speaker 3: and not with troops on the ground, but rather letting
Speaker 3: Israel do the work of a civilized society, a Western democracy.
Speaker 3: Let's go to the calls and uh line never becomes available.
Speaker 3: Eight sixty six six four seven seven three three seven.
Speaker 3: Let's go first to Steven uh North Carolina. Steven North Carolina,
Speaker 3: Welcome to the Bill Cunningham Show, Steve, how are you.
Speaker 6: I'm all right. I hope you're doing good. Billy Cadenham,
Speaker 6: the Great America and my friend and.
Speaker 3: Fred a good time today, spent time, all the men
Speaker 3: in our family, played golf, had a cookout afterwards. Father's
Speaker 3: Day special to me because I had allowsy Dad. I've
Speaker 3: tried to be a good one to my son and
Speaker 3: he's a good father and I'm very happy.
Speaker 7: Yeah, well ask me.
Speaker 6: But anyway, I think, you know, I'm sixty seven years old.
Speaker 6: I think Donald Trump is by far the best president
Speaker 6: in my lifetime. But I gotta say he dropped the
Speaker 6: bomb on he dropped the ball.
Speaker 8: Excuse me.
Speaker 6: He gave a ram sixty days straighten up, and they did,
Speaker 6: and Israel took over. I think we should be as
Speaker 6: much involved as Israel is. I mean, you know, Trump
Speaker 6: gives you sixty days and then he don't do nothing.
Speaker 6: I mean that really.
Speaker 7: Bothers me, Steve.
Speaker 5: How many American soldiers?
Speaker 3: How many Americans as Islamic terrorism killed over the years,
Speaker 3: and right now we have a lot of the Islamic
Speaker 3: world with us, with America and with Israel. Now for
Speaker 3: the street, whether you're in Saudi Arabia cut or you're
Speaker 3: not an air membirate in Sirah, you can't be telling
Speaker 3: the streets in those countries what you're doing. But they're
Speaker 3: allowing their airspace to be used for targeting other purposes.
Speaker 3: And so I think it was generous to say there
Speaker 3: was no way your Ron would ever give up their
Speaker 3: nuclear weapons. They see Mewmar Kadeffi and Asad as a
Speaker 3: reason they're not going to do it.
Speaker 5: Never.
Speaker 4: No, as long as there is.
Speaker 6: No death to America, death to Israel, as long as
Speaker 6: there is any of them living, it's going to be
Speaker 6: that way. The only thing you can do, and I
Speaker 6: hate to say it, is you got to totally wipe
Speaker 6: them out. Hamas and all of them, they got to go.
Speaker 3: And you know see from their perspective, that's not a
Speaker 3: bad idea, because from their perspective, you know, Hamas has been.
Speaker 3: Hamas has told many that the reason we put our
Speaker 3: our bases and our tunnels, under hospitals, under schools is
Speaker 3: because we want more jihad for the young folks and
Speaker 3: those that are injured in Gaza. We want the IDF
Speaker 3: to kill them to get to us. Normally, normal people
Speaker 3: don't want to kill them. But Hamas and has Blot
Speaker 3: they're a death cult. Boca Haram the hoodies a death cult.
Speaker 3: They not want to live, they want to die. They
Speaker 3: got this seventy two versions waiting, and I tell Trump
Speaker 3: to arrange a meeting.
Speaker 6: Exactly. That's exactly what I want Trump to do. I
Speaker 6: want Trump to step up and let's get involved. Let's
Speaker 6: let's take these people out and be done with them.
Speaker 3: Well, all right now, I thing Israel needs the bunker
Speaker 3: Buster bombs only delivery system availables at B two. Each
Speaker 3: one weighs about twenty five thousand pounds. You're gonna have
Speaker 3: two on each one and right now to my left. Yeah,
Speaker 3: I mean, I don't know. It's almost like a nuclear explosion.
Speaker 3: As far as the power, it's amazing. And these centrifuges
Speaker 3: and these enrichment plants are as much as a mile underground.
Speaker 3: And if those things can reach them, I would arrange.
Speaker 7: The meeting exactly.
Speaker 5: Happy fathers say to you, thank you you too, God
Speaker 5: bless you. Let's continue.
Speaker 3: Let's go to David and Pittsburgh now the home of
Speaker 3: Aaron Rodgers, who's married. He's out of some hut in
Speaker 3: New Mexico and I love New Mexico, and David and
Speaker 3: Pittsburgh give me a full report.
Speaker 9: I'd be Filo's day Bill.
Speaker 5: How you doing, buddy, I'm doing good.
Speaker 3: I mean, I think life's pretty good compared to other parts.
Speaker 3: And you know, I thought when this thing began on
Speaker 3: front All, he'll be breaking loose. Here we are Sunday
Speaker 3: night and Israel's taking one hell of a hit and
Speaker 3: they're going to respond. Now, I take out the oil refineries,
Speaker 3: I would take out their water systems, I turn off
Speaker 3: the electricity in Iran, and I bombed the crap out
Speaker 3: of them. And hopefully the civilian casualties in Iran are
Speaker 3: less than they should be. But you know, I guess
Speaker 3: the President Trumps told Benjamin that you naw who do
Speaker 3: not take out the Ayatola? And I don't know if
Speaker 3: that's good or bad, but I saw as long as
Speaker 3: that guy's in charge, nothing's good. Good's going to happen
Speaker 3: in the world.
Speaker 9: Right, Well, maybe the people and I ran tonne up
Speaker 9: and maybe go back, because I saw on Fox News
Speaker 9: they had the Prince of Iran that was I think
Speaker 9: that if they called the term that they used, but
Speaker 9: the Prince was on there with Marita barn and Romo
Speaker 9: the other day. But Bill breaking news on Fox. I
Speaker 9: don't mean to steal their thunder, but they captured that
Speaker 9: guy that did the shooting in Minnesota.
Speaker 8: It's breaking right now.
Speaker 9: I just got on my and Bill. Yeah, I hope
Speaker 9: they put that SB to death because what he did
Speaker 9: was wrong.
Speaker 5: His name is Advance Belter and he was.
Speaker 7: Bullet Bottler, Bolteller or something like that.
Speaker 3: Something like that, and he was apprehended. And I have
Speaker 3: no idea how somebody can get so sick. It is
Speaker 3: address in a police officer's uniform. Have a police car
Speaker 3: shows up at three o'clock in the morning with the
Speaker 3: blue lights flash, and that poor woman thought, okay, what's
Speaker 3: going on here? Open up the door, Open up the door,
Speaker 3: and she's brutally shot. Her husband's killed it and this
Speaker 3: guy that's why we need the death penalty for people like.
Speaker 9: This exactly, Bill. And you know, I'm hearing some things.
Speaker 9: I can't confron it, but I heard that he worked
Speaker 9: for Governor Waltz, and you know that he also had
Speaker 9: some of that No, I guess his wife said that
Speaker 9: no King's paraphernalia, some political handouts or something.
Speaker 8: He's obviously a piece of crap.
Speaker 3: Well, I Walt's uppointed him to a state commission. Whether
Speaker 3: it's ice number one. He's homicidal and he and he's
Speaker 3: psychiatrically ill to do what he did to innocent people.
Speaker 3: I don't care what political party. Is wrong and the
Speaker 3: guy that shut down the Trump wrong. It's just wrong.
Speaker 3: This is we should not have political assassinations in this country.
Speaker 3: We have far too many, uh, including how about uh,
Speaker 3: how about what happened to Steven Scalise practicing in a
Speaker 3: baseball game, hunted down by someone from Illinois because he
Speaker 3: wanted to kill the Republican leadership of the House. Or
Speaker 3: how about the Kavanall. A guy went there, I think
Speaker 3: from Iowa to kill just uh Justice Cavanall. So you
Speaker 3: got the you got the House, the Senate, you have
Speaker 3: the presidency in the US Supreme Court, and uh it
Speaker 3: won't stop. I pray to god it does. But uh,
Speaker 3: I don't care what political party you are. Murder is
Speaker 3: murder and this guy should get the death penalty.
Speaker 9: That's right, State build Just one more word, I want
Speaker 9: to give it. Thank out to my Senator Fedterman, who
Speaker 9: actually just lives across the river.
Speaker 8: From me here. He actually supported.
Speaker 9: The army rally today, yesterday and the weekend, and God
Speaker 9: bless him, and I hope he's doing well from the stroke.
Speaker 9: But another thing he said that his you know, speaking
Speaker 9: of politics, he broke away from his own party in
Speaker 9: the border. So God bless my two senators and Dave McCormick.
Speaker 3: Well, how about this, Shapiro, the governor, Jewish governor of
Speaker 3: Pennsylvania had his home firebombed. You have a Jewish couple
Speaker 3: outside of the Jewish embassy in the nation's capital gunned down.
Speaker 5: You have a Jewish.
Speaker 3: Set on fire, set on fire in Colorado, And I'm
Speaker 3: thinking we're in a violent time right now.
Speaker 5: Violence he gets violence.
Speaker 3: And if an eye for an eye, a tooth for
Speaker 3: a tooth means everybody has no eyes and no.
Speaker 5: Teeth, I'm I'm just sat.
Speaker 3: Fetterman is being highly criticized by the Democrats for supporting
Speaker 3: the army parade yesterday. John, I'm reading a story here,
Speaker 3: came under attack by fellow Democrats for praising the used
Speaker 3: army celebration.
Speaker 5: I don't know what to say.
Speaker 9: And God bless soldiers billing on marines, droves, the marine
Speaker 9: and a soldier. But he listen, and God bless you,
Speaker 9: and God bless all the great fathers and especially Bill
Speaker 9: a creator of the Lord God, our Father. Yeah, way
Speaker 9: in heaven.
Speaker 5: God bless America. Thank you very much for your call.
Speaker 5: And Uh.
Speaker 3: Suspect in Minnesota lawmaker shooting caught, according to Fox News,
Speaker 3: and I'm sure that's the case. I'm shocked it took
Speaker 3: two days to find him because when he shot the
Speaker 3: one lawmaker, he left his vehicle there and ran into
Speaker 3: the woods, and so they were after him from the
Speaker 3: get go. But thank god he's been apprehended. And that's
Speaker 3: why we need the death penalty. I doubt it might
Speaker 3: happen in this case because it could become a federal case.
Speaker 3: The Feds we will execute someone. Most states do not,
Speaker 3: including Minnesota. But we'll see what happens. MSNBC said that
Speaker 3: the military parade was dark with malevolent energy and John
Speaker 3: that is so sick. Nothing could be more clear. If
Speaker 3: you had a split screen of the US Army tens
Speaker 3: of thousands with the President in review marching up and
Speaker 3: down Pennsylvania Avenue with Lori in the American flag. The
Speaker 3: other screen was rock throwing degenerates in Los Angeles committing
Speaker 3: attacks felonies on law enforcement. And that was the split screen.
Speaker 3: One represents one party, the other one represents another. Let's
Speaker 3: continue with more. Your calls are next and if a
Speaker 3: line becomes available eight six six six four seven seven
Speaker 3: three three seven. Bill Cunningham with you every Sunday night.
Speaker 3: As I speak of Barroge and Iranian missiles and striking
Speaker 3: Israel and Haipha has been hit allegedly, we'll see what
Speaker 3: happens over the next couple hours. Also, as I just
Speaker 3: noted that Vance Luther belt b Like in boy Oe
Speaker 3: l Teer, fifty seven years old, was just arrested for
Speaker 3: the killing of Minnesota House speaker Melissa Hartman and her
Speaker 3: husband Mark. I answered the door about three o'clock in
Speaker 3: the morning. They assumed it was a police officer in uniform.
Speaker 3: The door's open and all hell breaks loose. And that's
Speaker 3: the reason we should have a quick death penalty. I'm
Speaker 3: sure we'll come up with some excuse, whether it's psychiatric
Speaker 3: or political, whatever, it might be done by any difference.
Speaker 3: We don't live in some I hope some Banana republic
Speaker 3: where any party is calling for the assassination of someone
Speaker 3: of a different viewpoint. If you'll hold those viewpoints, something
Speaker 3: is wrong with you. Get help, you need psychiatric assistance.
Speaker 3: And also wounded in that salt was a state senator
Speaker 3: and his wife. It appears miraculously they're going to survive.
Speaker 3: But nonetheless, Israel's under attack in the seventh wave from
Speaker 3: Iran with their ballistic missiles.
Speaker 5: Not so many.
Speaker 3: The drones are so slow it takes about eleven hours
Speaker 3: to get there as opposed to eleven minutes. So many
Speaker 3: of the explosions happening right now as I speak in
Speaker 3: Tel Aviv and Haifa are caused by ballistic missiles. Allegedly,
Speaker 3: they had approximately seven hundred ballistic missiles, and if eighty
Speaker 3: or ninety percent are shot down, I mean ten to
Speaker 3: fifteen percent get through. That's about one thousand ballistic missiles
Speaker 3: hitting Israel, which is a country very small but very important.
Speaker 3: And I would hope this will cause the President to
Speaker 3: review this situation and to allow those bunker buster bombs
Speaker 3: to be used against those in a mile deep and
Speaker 3: granite mountaintops, et cetera, where the Israel the Iranians have
Speaker 3: dispersed so much, but will continue to follow this news
Speaker 3: that vance Luthor Belter has been apprehended. Seemingly he's alive,
Speaker 3: and he was found a few miles away from the
Speaker 3: site of the murder of Minnesota House Speaker Democrat Melissa
Speaker 3: Hortman and her husband Mark, who gave their lives in
Speaker 3: a sense for the greater good, for the politics that
Speaker 3: they practice. But may God have mercy on his soul,
Speaker 3: because I hope the criminal justice system does not. Let's
Speaker 3: continue with the more of your calls, and we have
Speaker 3: one line open eight sixty six six four seven seven
Speaker 3: three three seven calls from Idaho, Colorado, in Michigan and
Speaker 3: California and Florida. Bill cunning and the Great American with
Speaker 3: you every Sunday night.
Speaker 10: Willie brough you by Choice Hotels, Econo Lodge and Roadway
Speaker 10: In Hotels are serving up double points for every qualifying
Speaker 10: stay book at Choice.
Speaker 7: Hotels dot com.
Speaker 2: Now here's the man who's been recognized as radio's best,
Speaker 2: the recipient of not one, but two prestigious Marconi Awards
Speaker 2: for his broadcast episodes, the one and only Bill Cunningham.
Speaker 5: Not only Cunningham.
Speaker 3: Of course, the media is a flutter right now with
Speaker 3: the apprehension of this this murderer and Thank god he's
Speaker 3: been apprehended. He supposedly was well armed when he was
Speaker 3: picked up. But nonetheless, uh, it'll be a long time
Speaker 3: now and he'll spend the next five to ten years
Speaker 3: in the legal process. But fifty seven year old Vance
Speaker 3: Luther Bolter is now out of circulation for a long
Speaker 3: period of time for killing Minnesota House Speaker Melissa Hortman
Speaker 3: and her husband Mark, and also shooting two others. Political
Speaker 3: violence is certainly not unknown to this country. At every
Speaker 3: time it happens. I pray that each political side do
Speaker 3: not in a way take advantage of this to make
Speaker 3: it group guilt for individual misconduct. It appears he was
Speaker 3: appointed by Governor Waltsh's some government position. It also approved
Speaker 3: a period ahead in his car. A lot of these
Speaker 3: no king's literature. But whatever his political ideology was, it
Speaker 3: provides no excuse for killing two innocent people in cold
Speaker 3: blood in the middle of the night. And so we
Speaker 3: move on from there, and we have one line available
Speaker 3: at eight sixty six six four seven seven three three seven,
Speaker 3: let's go to Mark in Wisconsin. And many others also
Speaker 3: would note that my sources near Haifa tell me that
Speaker 3: there's several dozen missiles raining down on Israel as I speak.
Speaker 3: Sirens are blaring all over the country. At some point,
Speaker 3: maybe next Sunday night, I'll have on David Rubin Live
Speaker 3: from Jerusalem to see what's happening there. But I would
Speaker 3: anticipate this thing's going to go on for a long
Speaker 3: period of time until Iran is brought to heal and
Speaker 3: understand that they cannot sponsor terrorism all over the world.
Speaker 3: And when they tell you something for the last thirty
Speaker 3: six years, we're going to kill you, I would take
Speaker 3: them at their word. They want to kill us, and
Speaker 3: any effort to the contrary would be most welcome in
Speaker 3: the world. But until then, Mark and Wisconsin. Welcome to
Speaker 3: the Bill Cunningham Show. And Mark, how are you? Mark?
Speaker 4: I'm fine.
Speaker 7: How are you tonight?
Speaker 4: Bill?
Speaker 5: Great night to be an American.
Speaker 4: Please go ahead, Okay, I just want to I'm kind
Speaker 4: of going back to the Little La scenario there, Yes, sir,
Speaker 4: After that brilliant comment by newscaster Mark Brown saying the
Speaker 4: peaceful protesters for just having fun watching cars burned down, Well,
Speaker 4: it seems to me like we make so light of
Speaker 4: all this stuff that, uh, we're almost making this into
Speaker 4: what I would call a spectator event. And in a
Speaker 4: much more severe scenario, I mean, we we've become so careless,
Speaker 4: so even like Hamas torturing Jews. Uh, you know, Gaza,
Speaker 4: you know, if we're that sensitize and it's nothing more
Speaker 4: again a spectator event. And I'll make one more point
Speaker 4: in this whole thing. Back in the day when Nero
Speaker 4: was fiddling my Rome burned down, I wonder what the
Speaker 4: the Roman press was coming up with in order to justify,
Speaker 4: you know, what was going on back then, you know,
Speaker 4: because you know, this is the insanity of this whole thing.
Speaker 4: I mean, you got a media out there.
Speaker 5: To cheerlead, you know, cheerlead.
Speaker 4: Yeah, exactly, they do.
Speaker 5: They take sides. Look at this way.
Speaker 3: There's thousands of anarchists, thousands of Antifa types that run
Speaker 3: around most major American cities, especially LA which, by the way,
Speaker 3: is one hundred and twenty five thousand gang members in
Speaker 3: Los Angeles. Imagine with a few thousand anarchists, a few
Speaker 3: thousand Antifa types. Throw on top of that one hundred
Speaker 3: and twenty five thousand gang bangers. It is a failed
Speaker 3: city state that high taxes, terrible schools, no respect for
Speaker 3: law and order, in fact, they're down fifteen to twenty
Speaker 3: percent of cops. They should have put that mix together
Speaker 3: with a clown like Karen Bass. Throw on top of
Speaker 3: that Kevin Newsom. You have a recipe for the destruction
Speaker 3: of American cities. Our magnificent cities have been destroyed by
Speaker 3: the policies of liberal left wing Democrats. And when rioting begins,
Speaker 3: instead of stopping and immediately, what they want to do
Speaker 3: is sell the idea that everything was peaceful, that the
Speaker 3: Molotov cocktails were peaceful until law enforcement showed up. Then
Speaker 3: it became violent. How does a cop cause you to
Speaker 3: want to be violent? Well, when the cop is not present,
Speaker 3: you're peaceful. That's a bunch of bs.
Speaker 5: Yes.
Speaker 4: And you know another thing I think's coming down the
Speaker 4: pike is Andrew Cuomo. If that guy ends up getting
Speaker 4: the mayor's position, Yeah, well, if he hooks up with
Speaker 4: a local, oh, you're going to have the exact same
Speaker 4: scenario of a bad mayor and a bad governor. And
Speaker 4: Lord only knows what's going to you know, open up
Speaker 4: over there. I mean Cuomo should have been indicted for
Speaker 4: setting up elderly senior homes for being death camps, and
Speaker 4: even though he kind of got indicted for the sexual harassment.
Speaker 4: Well he never got, you know, convicted for that whole
Speaker 4: COVID nineteen what I call senior death camp homes.
Speaker 3: You know, you know what he did, Mark was required
Speaker 3: nursing homes licensed by the state of New York to
Speaker 3: accept patients elderly with underlying conditions. The nursing homes to
Speaker 3: keep their licenses, had to accept them. Inside the nursing
Speaker 3: homes that caused the death of hundreds or thousands of
Speaker 3: elderly residents or otherwise might have lived, including one or
Speaker 3: two of the mothers of Fox News personalities. And Janis
Speaker 3: Deane's mother was killed because she was in a nursing home.
Speaker 3: Here comes five or six elderly residents with COVID and
Speaker 3: the nursing homes had to take them or else they'd
Speaker 3: lose their licensing from the state. Now was he ever
Speaker 3: held to account for that one?
Speaker 4: That's my point. I think that was the equivalent of
Speaker 4: what I would call, uh call it in a Nazi
Speaker 4: death camp. I mean, uh for the elderly euthanasia, you know,
Speaker 4: I mean, how this guy ever got off the hook
Speaker 4: on it, and now he's going to be eligible for mayor.
Speaker 5: Supposedly he's gonna win. Allegedly he's gonna wine. You can't
Speaker 5: make this up, I know.
Speaker 4: So now, like I said, you know, it's bad enough.
Speaker 4: You have bass mayor in l A. And he got
Speaker 4: Newsom in l A. So hokle got grilled by Congress
Speaker 4: and she's just flipping. She could care less no idea,
Speaker 4: I know. And then if you team her up with
Speaker 4: this uh uh you know the mayor the mayor again,
Speaker 4: I mean you got the same scenario.
Speaker 5: Going on, and Mark lloydt this way.
Speaker 3: How about Illinois under Governor Pritzker and throw on top
Speaker 3: of that Brandon Johnson in Chicago. You take Chicago, New York,
Speaker 3: major American cities and complete collapse. What rightful loving parent
Speaker 3: would ever send their kid to the public schools in
Speaker 3: New York Chicago, ell if they had a choice. Crime
Speaker 3: is rampant. There's three legs on the stool of justice.
Speaker 3: One is the police, two are prosecutors, and three are
Speaker 3: the judges. And in all those three areas, the cops
Speaker 3: can't be cops because they're sued. They take away qualified immunity.
Speaker 3: And each of those three departments have ten to twenty
Speaker 3: percent less cops than they should have. And all those
Speaker 3: city states are failing. We had magnificent, opulent cities. I
Speaker 3: spent time in Los Angeles about twenty years ago. There
Speaker 3: could not have been a more beautiful city in the
Speaker 3: world in Los Angeles. And after Pete Wilson moved on,
Speaker 3: the whole city collapse. The New York City after Giuliani
Speaker 3: and Bloomberg did exactly the same thing. And I can't
Speaker 3: recall Chicago. Maybe under Richard J. Daily it made some sense,
Speaker 3: it was somewhat functional. But almost all of our major
Speaker 3: American cities are in complete collapse. People are leaving, the
Speaker 3: school stink, there's rampant crime. There's all terribly high cost
Speaker 3: roles and regulations that make it impossible to flourish. And
Speaker 3: that's the way it is. Let's continue with more. We'll
Speaker 3: go with ed in Delaware, the Home of the Bidens.
Speaker 3: Ed in Delaware, Welcome to the Bill Cunningham Show.
Speaker 11: Ed.
Speaker 5: How are you, Bill? How are you?
Speaker 8: It's good to hear from you.
Speaker 5: I'd rather be rather be seen than you. Thank you.
Speaker 5: Do you ever run into the bidens there in Delaware?
Speaker 11: No?
Speaker 8: I doubt I perfectly stay at it from running into them.
Speaker 5: Anyway, what do you anyway?
Speaker 8: Anyway, I got Israel, you know, I support them one
Speaker 8: hundred percent. This is something that should have been done
Speaker 8: twenty years ago when.
Speaker 11: Old Obama paid them off thirty four woad are three
Speaker 11: hundred and forty.
Speaker 8: Four million bucks.
Speaker 3: Palletts of cash. We're flown into tayrun palettes of cash.
Speaker 11: Yeah, cash flown into Tyron. And yet they still built
Speaker 11: their nuclear facilities that terrorist groups.
Speaker 3: Stay on that one for a moment. Think of the
Speaker 3: billions of dollars that Obama and Biden directly or indirectly
Speaker 3: gave to the Iranians. They did not use it to
Speaker 3: build schools. They didn't use it to build brand new
Speaker 3: hospitals or infrastructure. They did not create jobs in in Iran.
Speaker 3: They didn't nurture the culture. Uh, they didn't advance public education,
Speaker 3: they didn't give women rights human rights. They used it
Speaker 3: to give billions of dollars to Hesbala Hamas, the you
Speaker 3: who did? And why why doesn't media point out that
Speaker 3: Biden and Obama funded what we see happening right now
Speaker 3: and uh, and they also funded the attack by Hamas
Speaker 3: on October the seventh against Israel, because that's where the
Speaker 3: money came from through Iran, and that those two Democrats
Speaker 3: made it all possible.
Speaker 11: Yeah, but I got one question, ask it now that
Speaker 11: Iran's gonna be bombed.
Speaker 8: Back to the Stone Age, what about North Korea?
Speaker 5: Well, I'd leave them alone for a time. Yeah.
Speaker 3: North Korea is a terrible, terrible place, but they do
Speaker 3: not they do not export terror to anywhere near the
Speaker 3: extent that Iran has done for the last thirty seven years.
Speaker 3: Different category completely. Of course, there's you know, the Korean War.
Speaker 3: Thank god we had a halfway victory there. But North
Speaker 3: Korea is another problem. But let's face it, it's not
Speaker 3: even close to what Iran has done to American soldiers,
Speaker 3: killing them repeatedly. And then also a quarter of a
Speaker 3: million acts of terrorism has taken place the last forty years,
Speaker 3: beginning with the killing of the Jews at the Olympics,
Speaker 3: and Iran has been the site of most of the
Speaker 3: funding of all these terror groups. North Korea is supported
Speaker 3: now by China and by Russia. They're in better shape
Speaker 3: now they've been in a long time because Russia is
Speaker 3: supporting North Korea with missile technology and also also North
Speaker 3: Korea is giving the Iranians a lot of drone technology
Speaker 3: and artillery show, no question.
Speaker 11: I believe they also gave them the nuclear know how
Speaker 11: on how to build missiles and how who are enriched uranium.
Speaker 3: No question, and that that's an issue, but one at
Speaker 3: a time. But Israel is willing to do our work
Speaker 3: for us. What Masad pulled off is unbelievable. Three days
Speaker 3: ago when how about this, Israel had a military base
Speaker 3: inside of Iran unbeknownst to them, and they set up
Speaker 3: a pow wow in Iran of the top military leadership,
Speaker 3: making them think the I totally wanted to meet with them,
Speaker 3: but in reality, it was Israel setting them up to
Speaker 3: come together in one place. Then they killed them all.
Speaker 3: I mean, Israel having a military base inside Iran, that's
Speaker 3: unbelieving Masad. And also they have also had exploding beds,
Speaker 3: exploding pagers, exploding walkie talkies, exploding cell phones.
Speaker 5: Masad is doing.
Speaker 3: The Lord's work because right now the world is not
Speaker 3: safe with the Islamic Jihad in full force in Iran.
Speaker 3: And also look at it this way, assuming this thing
Speaker 3: ends with negotiations and the same ones stay in charge
Speaker 3: of Iran that are in charge now, they're going to
Speaker 3: double triple their efforts to get a nuclear weapon, either
Speaker 3: directly or indirectly through North Korea and then kill six
Speaker 3: million Jews and as many Americans as is possible. Right now,
Speaker 3: as I speak, there's about one hundred thousand Americans living
Speaker 3: in Israel as I speak, including Scott Jennings of CNN
Speaker 3: is visiting. He's up by the Sea of Galilee, where
Speaker 3: I spent time about two and a half years ago.
Speaker 3: And now's the time. All the stars have aligned, and
Speaker 3: Israel must be permitted to finish the job, because if
Speaker 3: they don't and Iran is allowed to exist as a
Speaker 3: presently does, it may take a year or two to
Speaker 3: get another nuclear weapon. We're back again, and it must
Speaker 3: be brought down because most of the Middle East supports
Speaker 3: Israel and supports America. All let's continue with more, and
Speaker 3: allegedly there's going to be a news conference after eleven
Speaker 3: thirty pm Eastern time on the arrest of the Minnesota
Speaker 3: lawmaker murderer. He's been apprehended about a few miles away
Speaker 3: from the scene in the military garb and he was
Speaker 3: well armed and unfortunately he surrendered, So we'll see what occurs.
Speaker 3: Let's continue with more, and if a line becomes available
Speaker 3: eight six six six four seven, seven three three seven.
Speaker 3: Bill Cunningham, the Great American with you every Sunday night. Well, now,
Speaker 3: Vance Belter is under arrest. I see the photo IFCNN
Speaker 3: up and also Fox News and accused of shooting four
Speaker 3: Minnesota state lawmakers, killing one in her husband and he
Speaker 3: captured about an hour ago. Belter is accused of killing
Speaker 3: Minnesota House Speaker Melissa Hortman and her husband Mark early
Speaker 3: Saturday morning. He also then drove to the home of
Speaker 3: a state senator and this is incredible that they survived.
Speaker 3: And according to Senator Kobachar, she released the information that
Speaker 3: the state senator was shot nine times and his wife
Speaker 3: was shot eight times and the two of them survived,
Speaker 3: which is incredible. He took nine bullet hits, the wife
Speaker 3: took eight. Both are doing incredibly well, lucky to be alive.
Speaker 3: And those are two counts of attempt at first degree murder.
Speaker 3: The other ones will be capital murder. And he's been apprehended.
Speaker 3: It's going to be a news conference later on schedule
Speaker 3: for about fifteen or twenty minutes from now. We'll see
Speaker 3: what happens. Plus his fast news breaking events occur and
Speaker 3: looking at my left. CNN has a live update that
Speaker 3: the power grid in central Israel has been affected. Also
Speaker 3: there was ballistic missiles launched toward Haifa, which is the
Speaker 3: center of the power grid, and also oil and natural
Speaker 3: gas production in Israel. I can only wait now for
Speaker 3: the Israeli response, and I would assume that the handcuffs
Speaker 3: are off completely and that this is total, complete, all
Speaker 3: out war where the existence of Israel is at risk
Speaker 3: because of the activities of their enemy Iran. Iran started
Speaker 3: it through their proxies, started in nineteen seventy nine at
Speaker 3: metastasized October the seventh, and the Israel has now been
Speaker 3: attacked six times. And at some point this has got
Speaker 3: to end. If America, if Canada and Mexico, we're launching
Speaker 3: thousands of ballistic missiles into our country, killing thousands of
Speaker 3: our citizens injuring tens of thousands, what would America do
Speaker 3: the Canada and New Mexico. I can only imagine. That
Speaker 3: is what Israel has been under since nineteen seventy nine,
Speaker 3: with the understanding and belief that the enemies all around
Speaker 3: them want every Jew to be killed, plus any American,
Speaker 3: and over the years, Egypt is not acting up as
Speaker 3: much as he used to. I think at the present time,
Speaker 3: Jordan with King Hussein is somewhat flaccid and placid, and
Speaker 3: eleven into the North is under control, so to speak.
Speaker 3: Hesbla has seen the light, and then Syria has fallen
Speaker 3: completely under the Assad family. In fact, the president has
Speaker 3: met with the leader of Siri about a month ago
Speaker 3: when he visited Saudi Arabia. He's got an ally there.
Speaker 3: And Iraq has been completely neutered, controlled completely by Iran
Speaker 3: because only the head of the snake is left, and
Speaker 3: that's Iran frequently attacking Israel directly and indirectly, promising death
Speaker 3: to Israel, debt to the Jews, and debt to America
Speaker 3: when they keep saying that why don't you pay attention?
Speaker 5: They want you dead.
Speaker 3: And if they get weapons of mass destruction to win
Speaker 3: nuclear weapons, they will use them against Israel immediately, because
Speaker 3: it is a death cult in charge of Tehran, not
Speaker 3: a functional government. I have great empathy for the people
Speaker 3: of Iran and their incapability of overthrowing the shackles put
Speaker 3: on them, beginning with Mumar, beginning with a nineteen seventy
Speaker 3: nine with the Ietola and the reason that there's not
Speaker 3: much movement going on is because the present leaders of
Speaker 3: Iran understand that the lessons taught by Mumar Kadaffi may
Speaker 3: be visited upon them if give up weapons of mass destruction.
Speaker 3: Let's continue with more if a line becomes available, continue
Speaker 3: to take calls to eight sixty six six four seven
Speaker 3: seven three three seven, your reaction to the rioting taking
Speaker 3: place in major American cities, your reaction to Vince Belter
Speaker 3: being arrested about a half an hour ago, and your
Speaker 3: reaction to what is happening with Israel as I speak
Speaker 3: eight six six six four seven seven three three seven.
Speaker 3: And it's a good night. Good night for law enforcement
Speaker 3: in Minnesota, Bill cunning and the Great American with you
Speaker 3: and all great Americans every Sunday night. You know, as
Speaker 3: I speak, there's a new barrage of Irani and strikes
Speaker 3: hitting Israel. Now. It's approximately six point thirty four am
Speaker 3: in the morning, and I'm watching some of the video
Speaker 3: out of Haifa and Tel Aviv. It's not good casually,
Speaker 3: it is a mounting on both sides. Israel needs to
Speaker 3: act now to save the world from what Iran would
Speaker 3: do if they received nuclear weapons. It must act. I
Speaker 3: would note also that earlier today Vladimir Putin called Donald
Speaker 3: Trump and they exchanged niceties about Donald Trump's birthday, which
Speaker 3: is of course on Flag Day June the fourteenth, actually yesterday.
Speaker 3: I think they spoke today. And never before in Israel's
Speaker 3: history have they been in better shape to bring Pax
Speaker 3: Americana to the Middle East than they do right now
Speaker 3: at this moment, and they need to act. I could
Speaker 3: not imagine a regime like Adolf Hitler's in Nazi Germany
Speaker 3: would be left behind as the soldiers stayed on the
Speaker 3: outskirts and wanted to make sure Hitler stayed in charge
Speaker 3: of Nazi Germany to come back later. I don't know how.
Speaker 3: I watched Brett Bears interview earlier today with Benjamin NETANYAHUO
Speaker 3: talked about, well, we set back Iranian production of nuclear
Speaker 3: weapons maybe a.
Speaker 5: Year or two more.
Speaker 3: How about destroying the capability of that nation to produce
Speaker 3: nuclear weapons period? To win the war, there's no substitute
Speaker 3: for victory. You have to win the war. I know
Speaker 3: the casualties are mounting. It's difficult. I love what Israel
Speaker 3: represents in the Middle East, and they have most of
Speaker 3: the Middle East on their side, which has not always
Speaker 3: been the case. In fact, it's always not been the case.
Speaker 3: So right now Iran is targeting the infrastructure of Israel
Speaker 3: oil and natural gas production. Also they have nuclear capabilities
Speaker 3: inside Israel, and looking at the video out of Tel
Speaker 3: Aviv right now, it's not good. There'll be many more
Speaker 3: casualties and many fathers and mothers will wake up with
Speaker 3: dead boys and girls because of what Iran is doing
Speaker 3: to a peace loving nation which is Israel.
Speaker 5: Israel.
Speaker 3: Can you imagine if Israel lost all of its military power,
Speaker 3: what would Israel look like right now? They'd be devastating,
Speaker 3: They'd be taken over and so lost all of its
Speaker 3: military power, there would be peace. Which brings me to
Speaker 3: Father's Day, which is tonight today. And as you know,
Speaker 3: I spent my time today with the male members of
Speaker 3: my family. Played golf, which was great. Then we had
Speaker 3: dinner together. It was wonderful. And every Father's Day is
Speaker 3: more precious to me when there's fewer Father's Days in
Speaker 3: the future that there's been in the past. You know,
Speaker 3: life is more precious when there's less time to waste.
Speaker 3: I could not imagine a father willingly leaving a family
Speaker 3: for alcoholic or other purposes. He brought into the world.
Speaker 3: When I was in high school, I thought a somewhat
Speaker 3: functional family. I loved my mother's dearly as his son
Speaker 3: could ever love a mother. I heard the yelling and
Speaker 3: the screaming and the fighting, but as a child, you think, well,
Speaker 3: that's kind of normal. My best friend in the world
Speaker 3: was my dad, William D. Cunningham Senior. I'm willing William D.
Speaker 3: Cunningham Junior had three boys and a girl. He worked
Speaker 3: at Procter and Gamble, worked at Kroger. He was my
Speaker 3: baseball coach. We did everything together. I was closer to
Speaker 3: him than the other children because I looked like him.
Speaker 3: I carried his name even though I was the second
Speaker 3: in line. I just was very close to my dad.
Speaker 3: And after the fighting continued, at some point my mother
Speaker 3: sat us down in a little, our little home in
Speaker 3: Deer Park, Ohio, and told us that your father has left.
Speaker 3: And he told me he's not coming back. And I said, well, Mom,
Speaker 3: where did dad go?
Speaker 5: I don't know.
Speaker 3: He took the car and he left, and he said,
Speaker 3: and she said, we're in trouble financially because I don't
Speaker 3: have a job. I have an eighth grade education. We
Speaker 3: have bills out the wazoo. I don't know about bills
Speaker 3: as a thirteen year old, and I said, what are
Speaker 3: we going to do? And she said, I don't know. Well,
Speaker 3: over the next few months, we moved in with family members.
Speaker 3: My mother and all four kids moved in with family members.
Speaker 3: I never saw my father again the rest of my life.
Speaker 3: I got on with my life, got into sports, and
Speaker 3: she told each of us, look, we have no money.
Speaker 3: We're going to live with family members, your auntie, who
Speaker 3: was a living saint, and I got to get to work,
Speaker 3: and each of you have to find a way to
Speaker 3: try to support yourself in the family because we don't
Speaker 3: have any money. He left four young children, He left
Speaker 3: his job. He'd been arrested several times for drunken, disorderly
Speaker 3: and DUIs, which I knew little or nothing about. And
Speaker 3: I never saw him again the rest of my life.
Speaker 3: Many years rolled by, years rolled by. At this point,
Speaker 3: I'm practicing law in Lucas County, Toledo. Phone rings pick
Speaker 3: it up. First voice, I hear, is Billy, this is
Speaker 3: your father. Stop me on a dime, I said, who
Speaker 3: my father? And I asked him some questions who was
Speaker 3: your assistant coach for Rutters Pharmacy? And what was my
Speaker 3: mother's maiden name? And he came out with I said, well,
Speaker 3: what the hell do you want? He said, look, I'm dying.
Speaker 3: Doctor said I have a few months to live. I
Speaker 3: want to see you and talk with you before before
Speaker 3: before I die. And I said, let me call you back.
Speaker 3: I got his number, wrote it down on a piece
Speaker 3: of paper and those days, of course, cell phones did
Speaker 3: not exist. Then I called my mom quickly, I said, Mom,
Speaker 3: what's going on? But Dad, I gave him your number.
Speaker 3: He said he wants to see you. I said why, Well,
Speaker 3: he told me he's dying. He's in Missouri and he's dying.
Speaker 3: Mom was in Cincinnati, I'm in Toledo. My older brother
Speaker 3: was in Michigan. I said, what do you think? She said, Billy,
Speaker 3: do whatever you want. And at that point, I didn't
Speaker 3: have the gas money. I was married with a little baby.
Speaker 3: I don't have the gas money to go to Missouri.
Speaker 3: I was, and I was practicing law, working my tail off.
Speaker 5: I said.
Speaker 3: I called him back and said, look, Dad, you were
Speaker 3: not a father to me in my life. I'm not
Speaker 3: going to be a son to you. And your death.
Speaker 3: Good luck to you, goodbye, hung up on him. A
Speaker 3: few more weeks went by, he calls me again. There
Speaker 3: was no caller idea at the time, you might remember,
Speaker 3: and it was a weak voice, and he said, doctor
Speaker 3: tells me I have less than a week to live.
Speaker 3: If I could drive there to you, I would, but
Speaker 3: but I can't. Please come see me. I want to
Speaker 3: talk with you. And I said, Dad, good luck to you.
Speaker 3: But no, I'm not going to see you. I think,
Speaker 3: I said, go to hell. So I got reports from
Speaker 3: my mother. He died about ten days later and didn't
Speaker 3: go to the funeral. Of course, a year's roll BI
Speaker 3: put it out of my mind.
Speaker 5: I move on.
Speaker 3: I tried to be the to my son that my
Speaker 3: father was never to us. I can't imagine leaving a
Speaker 3: young mother with four kids and no way to make
Speaker 3: a living and stacks of bills and have to move
Speaker 3: in with family members to make ends meet. Years roll by,
Speaker 3: and I opened up over the years a sports cafe
Speaker 3: sports bar called Willie's, and I had four of them
Speaker 3: in the Tri State area.
Speaker 5: Loved it.
Speaker 3: I practiced law during the day, was radio at night,
Speaker 3: and in the meantime I opened up businesses and years
Speaker 3: roll by. In this I'm standing in one of my
Speaker 3: sports bars and a guy taps me on the shoulder
Speaker 3: and says, can I talk to you for a moment.
Speaker 3: He's an old guy. Gosh, she had to be in
Speaker 3: his eighties, maybe nineties. I said, sure, have a seat,
Speaker 3: and he took my hand and I'm looking at him
Speaker 3: and he said, I was your dad's best friend. And
Speaker 3: I said, my dad's best friend, really, And he said
Speaker 3: he he was a drunk and he got drunk all
Speaker 3: the time. He did things he shouldn't have done with women.
Speaker 3: And I bailed him out of Hamlet County jail a
Speaker 3: couple of times and had DUIs. And I said, I
Speaker 3: knew he had a terrible drinking problem. But he said
Speaker 3: he talked to me about when you wouldn't come see him.
Speaker 5: I said, right. I hated that guy.
Speaker 3: No what he put my mom through, when he put
Speaker 3: the family through, I said, no, I'm done.
Speaker 5: No, he said, but let me tell you something. Here's
Speaker 5: a letter.
Speaker 3: That he sent to me that I've kept all these years.
Speaker 3: And I said, a letter from my dad. He said yeah,
Speaker 3: and I put it to the side and I said, well,
Speaker 3: what's in the letter? He said, he wanted you to
Speaker 3: know something. I said, well, I said, don't try to
Speaker 3: justify what he did. He said, I can't justify it.
Speaker 3: He said, you know he was a US Marine. I said, yeah,
Speaker 3: I know. My mom told me. He was in the
Speaker 3: Solomon Guadalcanal Station and Chinas, spent three and a half
Speaker 3: years when he was twenty one years old, came out
Speaker 3: twenty four, and he came out a completely broken man.
Speaker 3: He did things he shouldn't have done the enemy soldiers,
Speaker 3: and he saw things that no young men should ever see.
Speaker 3: But he's blown up. Guadalcanal was bloody, took weeks. One
Speaker 3: of his missions there was to pick up the parts
Speaker 3: of dead US Marines put them in bags, and he
Speaker 3: did that. It wasn't like a six month deployment. It
Speaker 3: was like three years. I said, oh jeez, he said.
Speaker 3: When he came back it used to be shell shocked.
Speaker 3: Now it's PTSD. But that war killed him, ate him
Speaker 3: up inside. And the more he drank his medicine, the
Speaker 3: more he hated the person he was becoming, and the
Speaker 3: more he knew he had to leave in a sense
Speaker 3: because it was Warren's out for him. He lost all
Speaker 3: of his jobs, had no money, felt like a total failure.
Speaker 3: He got in his car and as far as you
Speaker 3: could drive, got out, went to like a homeless type shelter,
Speaker 3: and then got a menial job. And he wanted to
Speaker 3: tell you before he died how much he loved you,
Speaker 3: and I was sorry he was for what he did
Speaker 3: to you and to your family. And I said really,
Speaker 3: I said, oh, I felt as if I could have
Speaker 3: snuck under a door. I felt so small that you
Speaker 3: know my feelings about police, about law enforcement, about our military.
Speaker 5: My father reaches out to me.
Speaker 3: And he wanted me to hear why he did what
Speaker 3: he did, not to justify it, but to give an
Speaker 3: explanation that I never heard during the living years. So
Speaker 3: I kept the letter. It was in his hand writing,
Speaker 3: I had some other samples.
Speaker 5: It was him, and it was.
Speaker 3: Telling me how sorry he was for the sins and
Speaker 3: crimes he committed that kept him for being a good dad.
Speaker 5: So I want you to do something tonight.
Speaker 3: If you're estranged from your dad, tonight, make another call.
Speaker 3: If he reaches for you, grab his hand and say, Dad,
Speaker 3: I want to hear why you did what you did,
Speaker 3: and if he offers sincere apologies for sins, and crimes
Speaker 3: of Jesus. If the Christ could forgive the Roman centurions
Speaker 3: who nailed me to the cross, forgive him all the
Speaker 3: different I've made many mistakes in my life. I had
Speaker 3: too much ubrius, too much pride, too full. If you'ine
Speaker 3: in vinegar to accept an apology from the United States
Speaker 3: Marine who participated in the defeat of Japan during World
Speaker 3: War Two, to say that, Okay, I get it, Dad, I.
Speaker 5: Accept your apology.
Speaker 3: So before I go to sleep tonight, I'm gonna say
Speaker 3: the our Father, the hel Mary and the Glory b
Speaker 3: and I'm gonna forgive my dad again and again and again.
Speaker 5: For what he did.
Speaker 3: And I will say how sorry I am that I
Speaker 3: didn't come to you when when he needed me because
Speaker 3: I was filled with pride.
Speaker 5: I will tell him again tonight.
Speaker 3: I love your dad, and I wish I'd made different
Speaker 3: decisions when I was younger to come and sit with you.
Speaker 3: So that old man left, he left the letter, and
Speaker 3: I felt small and insignificant. So let me be an
Speaker 3: example of what not to do. Don't do what I did.
Speaker 3: Do the opposite tonight or tomorrow for the sons and
Speaker 3: daughters who are strange from their dad. Let's face that
Speaker 3: men have more problems in these regards than women do.
Speaker 3: Women are much better human beings than men. Make an
Speaker 3: effort during the living years to say to your dad,
Speaker 3: if you're sincerely sorry for what you have done, I
Speaker 3: accept your apology. Let's begin a new relationship, whatever that
Speaker 3: might be.
Speaker 5: I'm not sure.
Speaker 3: In my case there could have been a relationship. You
Speaker 3: weren't going to come back here. Hell, there was warrens
Speaker 3: out for his arrest. He wanted to stay in Missouri
Speaker 3: and live out his life. But at least I could
Speaker 3: have listened to him and the first time he called me,
Speaker 3: we could have met halfway, maybe in Illinois or somewhere
Speaker 3: in western Indiana.
Speaker 5: But I didn't do it. So don't do what I did.
Speaker 5: Do something different.
Speaker 7: Between a week. It was a huge.
Speaker 3: Well, let's continue. Bill Cunningham seven, Bill Cunningham News Radio
Speaker 3: every sun and I was here. Hopefully justice will be
Speaker 3: down in Minnesota. I wouldn't know that Minnesota does not
Speaker 3: have a functional death penalty, but the Feds do, and
Speaker 3: hopefully he'll be tried in both locations. Much like what
Speaker 3: happened in the New York City when assassin hunted down
Speaker 3: the CEO of a healthcare company. The Feds may proceed
Speaker 3: first because of their death penalty availability. Of course, New
Speaker 3: York doesn't have a death penalty. It is sodas functional
Speaker 3: now it doesn't have that, and we'll see what happens
Speaker 3: down the road. Timothy McVeigh was given the I always say,
Speaker 3: the federal death penalty, and he's dead, thank God for
Speaker 3: what he did in Oklahoma City in the Alpha p
Speaker 3: murror Federal building. And I know that Pam Bondi and
Speaker 3: others want to crack down as much as is possible
Speaker 3: for vance a belter. And with a federal penalty, you
Speaker 3: can perhaps make bond in the state of Minnesota to
Speaker 3: get out, but you can't make bond on a federal
Speaker 3: death penalty case. You're denied bond. So we'll see what happens.
Speaker 3: But we may disagree politically, but I hope we can
Speaker 3: agree that the shooting of innocent lawmakers, whether on a
Speaker 3: baseball field in Washington, d c. Or at one's home,
Speaker 3: or the kind of activities that everyone must stand up
Speaker 3: and oppose greatly, none of us are responsible except the
Speaker 3: perpetrator for the crimes they commit. There's no such a
Speaker 3: thing as group guilt. Assuming this guy was a Republican,
Speaker 3: which is doubtful. He was psychiatrically ill, and he's a murderer.
Speaker 3: All of us are not responsible for him anymore than
Speaker 3: the Democratic Party is responsible for the shooting of Representative
Speaker 3: Steven Scalise, saved a course by brad winstrip of the
Speaker 3: Great State of Ohio. Let's continue with more coming up
Speaker 3: later will be the congressman one of two voted against
Speaker 3: the big beautiful bill in the House, and one of
Speaker 3: them was Warren Davidson. The other one was Tom Massey,
Speaker 3: both listeners of mine, I like to think friends of
Speaker 3: mine been on this show repeatedly. He's going to explain
Speaker 3: himself and also later on as Professor Erk Kaufman Uri
Speaker 3: Kaufman from New York City to talk about what's happening
Speaker 3: in Israel as I speak with a new barrage of
Speaker 3: Iranian missiles hitting Israel, as the deadly encounter enters his
Speaker 3: fourth day. So let's continue with more and if a
Speaker 3: line becomes available eight six six four seven seven three
Speaker 3: three seven, and the news conference is still ongoing, and
Speaker 3: the capture of the Minnesota lawmaker shooting suspect Vans Luthor Belton,
Speaker 3: Bill Cunningham with you and all great Americans every Sunday.
Speaker 7: Night, Willie.
Speaker 2: Brock You by Choice Hotels econor Rogen Roadway in hotels
Speaker 2: are serving up double points for every qualifying stay book
Speaker 2: at Choice hotels dot com. Now here's the man who's
Speaker 2: been recognized as radio's best, the recipient of not one
Speaker 2: but two prestigious Marconi Awards for his broadcast excellence, the
Speaker 2: one and only Bill Cunningham.
Speaker 5: Bill Cunningham, the great American.
Speaker 3: All hell's breaking, loose, chaos and confusion is everywhere. Had
Speaker 3: riots over the week, and of course with this so
Speaker 3: called no Kings riots and the protests, what happen and
Speaker 3: the and the state of Oregon is really unbelievable. Uh Portland,
Speaker 3: for example, what happened in La Uh? You had the
Speaker 3: La County Sheriff say that molotov cocktail are thrown. Dozens
Speaker 3: of officers have been injured, blocks of concrete have been pitched.
Speaker 3: You have a commercial grade fireworks being distributed among the
Speaker 3: police to hurt and injure them. You have no commerce
Speaker 3: happening in Los Angeles. I would think, I don't know
Speaker 3: how you have a worse mare than Karen Bass or
Speaker 3: a worst governor. But everywhere I look there's nothing but
Speaker 3: chaos plus. And the next few days the President is
Speaker 3: going to be in the Rocky Mountains, Canadian side to
Speaker 3: talk to some of the G seven leaders about that.
Speaker 3: It's a situation plus unbelievable what's happening in Israel, And
Speaker 3: it goes on and on on. It's only been like
Speaker 3: two or three days since that erupted, and since then,
Speaker 3: all of a sudden, the world has changed. Shownan you
Speaker 3: and I now is Congressman Warren Davidson of the Great
Speaker 3: State of Ohio. And there's two congressmen that voted against
Speaker 3: the Big Beautiful Bill in the House. Both are guests
Speaker 3: and I think listeners of mine, that being a Thomas
Speaker 3: Massey and Warren Davidson and Congressmen, welcome again to the bill.
Speaker 3: Cunningham shown first of all, to go back a couple
Speaker 3: of weeks. It was a one vote plus. What caused
Speaker 3: you to vote no on the Big Beautiful Bill about
Speaker 3: ten days or two weeks ago?
Speaker 7: Yeah, good question. It spends more money than it creates
Speaker 7: bigger deficits than we would have if we didn't pass
Speaker 7: the Big Beautiful Bill. And it doesn't you know, look,
Speaker 7: you don't want to go by the GAO score. I mean,
Speaker 7: there's been a lot of criticism of that that comes
Speaker 7: out and says it costs like five trillion dollars over
Speaker 7: ten years. GAO doesn't give credit for you know, the
Speaker 7: growth rate, doesn't give credit for tariffs. Penn Wharton, which
Speaker 7: Wharton School of Business usually is one that people will
Speaker 7: look at that says, oh, we give good scores there
Speaker 7: and everything, and that says it still grows the deaths.
Speaker 7: It's even in ten years. But the most optimistic model
Speaker 7: I could find gives as much credit. It's the one
Speaker 7: that Speaker Johnson and President Trump and Steven Miller and
Speaker 7: everybody's highlighting. It does look good, it looks very very nice.
Speaker 7: In a ten year timeframe, would grow would save about
Speaker 7: one point six trillion dollars if everything went according to plan.
Speaker 7: But even in those most optimistic scenarios, it doesn't. It
Speaker 7: grows deaths. That's in the first you know, in the
Speaker 7: first this Congress and then the entire presidency, so until
Speaker 7: twenty twenty nine before it really starts saving money.
Speaker 3: And the other thing is how much pressure were you
Speaker 3: under thumbscrews? Were you tortured. Whenever someone says, get me
Speaker 3: the pliers and get me the blow torch, did the
Speaker 3: Trumpster and others give you the pliers and the blow torch?
Speaker 7: Now, look, we've had conversations about these bills since you know, November, really,
Speaker 7: I mean probably really prior to that, but you know,
Speaker 7: you know, in an aggressive way. I mean hundreds and
Speaker 7: hundreds of hours spent in meetings talking about these bills
Speaker 7: to get to this point. So no one's surprised by
Speaker 7: the position I've had, Frank, It's position I had, you know,
Speaker 7: last Congress when when I voted yes for a bill
Speaker 7: that if if we stuck to the plan, would have
Speaker 7: spent less money than we did the year before. And
Speaker 7: that's the criteria. We don't. We don't even talk about
Speaker 7: passing a balance budget anymore. I'm just like, can we
Speaker 7: at least turn in the right direction and spend less
Speaker 7: money than we did the year before, which is a
Speaker 7: pretty low bar, But we don't. We don't ever put
Speaker 7: that on the floor. We did pass a plan to
Speaker 7: do that last Congress, and I sort of had hoped
Speaker 7: that we could at least agree to do that, especially
Speaker 7: in light of all the momentum we've built with Doge.
Speaker 7: So that's been my position is if we've got a
Speaker 7: plan to spend less than I'm for it, and if
Speaker 7: we don't, then you know, then you know, we'll see
Speaker 7: what we can do. And so go back to March,
Speaker 7: I was, you know, into February, early March, we passed
Speaker 7: essentially the plan to start putting this reconciliation bill together,
Speaker 7: and we basically decided we're going to go with one
Speaker 7: big beautiful bill versus the two step approach. I favored
Speaker 7: the two step approach for what it's worth, but you know,
Speaker 7: ultimately the kind of moderates push to stick everybody together
Speaker 7: and put one big beautiful bill, and the danger in
Speaker 7: that is usually it's worse on spending. That's how why
Speaker 7: they do omnibus bills is, you know, the usually the
Speaker 7: way you get the votes is you just agree to
Speaker 7: spend more, and that's exactly what they did. They so
Speaker 7: they turned towards the left and they counted on holding
Speaker 7: everybody they could from the right onto the big beautiful bill.
Speaker 7: And that's where you've lost votes. I mean, you know, me, Massey,
Speaker 7: Andy Harris vote at present. But it's because people didn't
Speaker 7: really want to take it. And that's kind of where
Speaker 7: I was in at the end of February and March,
Speaker 7: where I was the last person to get DS and
Speaker 7: the speaker assured me that he would not put a
Speaker 7: bill on the floor that didn't save at least one
Speaker 7: point six trillion dollars. One point five trillion dollars in
Speaker 7: a ten year CBO score technically doesn't do it with CBO,
Speaker 7: but you can find a model that does it. But
Speaker 7: we talked about this Congress, and that's really the crux
Speaker 7: of it, Willie, is, you know, the only Congress we
Speaker 7: control is the one we're in, right, So it's easy
Speaker 7: to promise some future Congress is going to save money,
Speaker 7: but promises somebody else is going to save money doesn't
Speaker 7: save money. And so while there's lots of things that
Speaker 7: we could do, I've given almost two trillion dollars worth
Speaker 7: of ideas that you could cut that would accelerate the
Speaker 7: you know, this model, so that this Congress or at
Speaker 7: least this presidency. And that's where I relented. I said, Okay,
Speaker 7: let's say that Trump would be willing to veto a
Speaker 7: bad spending bill. We don't necessarily know who's going to
Speaker 7: win in the midterms, but I would be willing to
Speaker 7: vote for it as long as it would save money
Speaker 7: by the time President Trump's out of office in twenty
Speaker 7: twenty nine. And you know, even the best model that
Speaker 7: they can come up with it doesn't do that, and
Speaker 7: so we wanted to So this is is a long
Speaker 7: part of the story here. But again, hours and hours
Speaker 7: and hours of these conversations. So ultimately we're able to
Speaker 7: get it out of the House, but still have you know,
Speaker 7: no votes from the conservative side of this, the less
Speaker 7: spend less money side. Well, so that tease it up
Speaker 7: to get to the Senate, right, and that's where Rick Scott,
Speaker 7: Ron Johnson, and Mike Lee are pushing it. And look,
Speaker 7: Thomas Massey and Ran Paul are kind of in their
Speaker 7: own place. Whether they're movable or not is to be determined,
Speaker 7: but the other three senators are there. Rick Scott's been
Speaker 7: hosting dinners with conservatives from the House and Senate for
Speaker 7: a couple of years now, so we spent lots of
Speaker 7: hours talking amongst conservas in the House and Senate and
Speaker 7: frankly with the administration and Susie Wiles and team there
Speaker 7: she's chief staff on how to keep this bill from
Speaker 7: becoming just another giant on the bus.
Speaker 3: No matter what you know, the numbers, assuming the big
Speaker 3: beautiful bell passes, is it true right now that death
Speaker 3: the accumulated debt is about thirty seven trillion, and over
Speaker 3: the next ten years, let's forget about ten years. Over
Speaker 3: the next five years, under the plan of the Big BB,
Speaker 3: there's going to be ten trillion.
Speaker 5: Dollars more borrowing.
Speaker 3: By the time Trump leaves office, there will be forty
Speaker 3: seven trillion owed by our kids and grand cause.
Speaker 5: Is that approximately correct?
Speaker 7: Yeah, I mean directionally, we're having you know, two trillion
Speaker 7: dollar depth sits right now. And unfortunately, under this bill
Speaker 7: during Trump Trump's presidency, in the most optimistic scenario, it
Speaker 7: still grows those depths that's beyond the two trillion, so
Speaker 7: it makes them even worse for the next two or
Speaker 7: three years. That's that's you know, that's a terrible situation
Speaker 7: for the depth sit And when you go to the
Speaker 7: ten year score, when they say in the optimistic if
Speaker 7: you stick to the plan, we save one point six
Speaker 7: trillion dollars. This bill would raise a debt debt limit
Speaker 7: by five four to five trillion, depends on the House
Speaker 7: version or the Senate version, whichever one becomes final four
Speaker 7: or five trillion dollars. So I mean this starts eating
Speaker 7: up our GDP. I mean it's a huge percentage of
Speaker 7: our GDP. And the last time that we had this
Speaker 7: much debt it was the end of World War Two.
Speaker 7: But everybody knew we had to spend less money. Right
Speaker 7: now almost nobody's talking about spending less money. And that's
Speaker 7: sort of where Elon Musk, you know, it is like, look,
Speaker 7: kind of works in the opposite direction. Why did I
Speaker 7: want to go do Doe was so we could spend
Speaker 7: less money And this bill does just the opposite of that.
Speaker 7: It's a big setback, and you know he's right to
Speaker 7: be upset about that, and you know, of course we
Speaker 7: do want to find a way to get it done.
Speaker 3: Congressman Warren Davidson. And one great part about this bill
Speaker 3: is the continuation of tax cuts and the idea that
Speaker 3: if nothing happens, this will destroy the Trump legacy. And secondly,
Speaker 3: there'll be a huge tax increase on the American people.
Speaker 7: What do you say about that one? Well, I think look,
Speaker 7: no one wants that. We know we're going to have
Speaker 7: to deal with the taxes. I don't whether it's in
Speaker 7: this big, beautiful bill in a broken apart series of things.
Speaker 7: I mean, there's enough votes to change the tax code.
Speaker 7: I mean the reality is that, you know, the Senate
Speaker 7: passed the no tax on Tips provision that President Trump
Speaker 7: wont and as a standalone measure kind of approved the
Speaker 7: point one hundred to zero. If you look at some
Speaker 7: of these provisions in the tax code, you know there
Speaker 7: are Democrats who would vote for it. We could pass
Speaker 7: them with sixty votes. You don't even need very many
Speaker 7: Democrats to do that. You could do those in standalone bills.
Speaker 7: And then the last thing is it's not like you
Speaker 7: only get like one giant reconciliation bill per year. The
Speaker 7: Democrats did the same plan when they passed the American
Speaker 7: Rescue Plan and when they passed the you know, inflation
Speaker 7: Reduction Actor. He's sort of green new deal, and they're
Speaker 7: blending what's traditionally mandatory spending and discretionary spending, but in
Speaker 7: their case, they just want to spend more money. Bernie
Speaker 7: Sanders liked it so much when he was the Democrat
Speaker 7: chair of the Senate Budget Committee. He said, is there
Speaker 7: any limit to how we can do this? And the
Speaker 7: Senate Parliamentarium said no, you can do this as often
Speaker 7: as you want. So it's not like you can only
Speaker 7: do it like once per year you're limited to it.
Speaker 7: So those why it's kind of crazy to not do
Speaker 7: two bills and still one because you have a clear
Speaker 7: consensus on a lot of things. Why did they want
Speaker 7: one big, beautiful bill. Well, because the moderates from places
Speaker 7: like New York and New Jersey and California wanted this
Speaker 7: state and local tax deduction and they knew that was
Speaker 7: their leverage to force it to be as big as possible.
Speaker 7: And it's a shame that we gave into that.
Speaker 3: Well, at this point, Congressman, I would say this, the
Speaker 3: tax cuts have got to be continued, and secondly, somehow
Speaker 3: the accumulated debt has got to come down. If it
Speaker 3: doesn't happen now, I've said this many times in talk
Speaker 3: radio for the last several decades. If it doesn't happen
Speaker 3: now with guys like you and Ran Paul and John
Speaker 3: Thune and President Trump and what's going on. If it
Speaker 3: doesn't happen now, it's not going to happen because if
Speaker 3: this group can't get it done, the deficit is just
Speaker 3: going to continue yearly to go up two trillion, three trillion.
Speaker 3: And secondly, the accumulated debt's going to be wild. So
Speaker 3: if it doesn't happen, now we're screwed, blue tattooed and barbecued.
Speaker 7: Yeah, I mean that's it. You look at all the
Speaker 7: momentum we had coming off of Doze and and the election,
Speaker 7: and look, you shouldn't have to fund the Green New Deal.
Speaker 7: And you know, tax breaks for you know, wealthy people
Speaker 7: in New York to be able to secure our borders.
Speaker 7: So there are things in there that we like and agree.
Speaker 7: And if you cut taxes, it makes sense. You can
Speaker 7: grow the economy to some extent and bring in a
Speaker 7: little more tax revenue. You can bring tariffs in and
Speaker 7: bring in you know, significant revenue from tariffs. But you
Speaker 7: can't do that and spend money and cut taxes and
Speaker 7: not have to raise the dead limit. And eventually, if
Speaker 7: all this stuff comes together, the reason it starts looking
Speaker 7: good in the out years is they eventually get around
Speaker 7: to turning off major chunks of the Green New Deal.
Speaker 7: They eventually get around to saying, look, if you're able
Speaker 7: bodied working as an adult, you got to go to work.
Speaker 7: But who would help a friend in need out and say, well, hey, buddy,
Speaker 7: I mean, I'll help you out for now, but by
Speaker 7: the end of twenty twenty seven, you got to get
Speaker 7: a job. Why does it mean to do the same
Speaker 7: thing when the government does the same thing that you
Speaker 7: and I would do for our friends and family.
Speaker 3: That illegal immigrants should be getting medicaid something like one
Speaker 3: point three million or so, plus another four point six
Speaker 3: million or able bodied adults that refuse to work. We
Speaker 3: have only a few minutes remaining. I want to get
Speaker 3: your take on what's happening in Israel. I understand from
Speaker 3: off the air the Congress is planning on a little
Speaker 3: bit of a trip next week to Israel that may
Speaker 3: not occur. I see this as a golden opportunity in
Speaker 3: which the Gulf States want Iran to be taken down completely.
Speaker 3: We use four or five Muslim countries Israel did to
Speaker 3: fly over their F fifteen's and to bomb and take
Speaker 3: care of Iran the most they can give me. Warren
Speaker 3: Davidson's position on what's happening now. This may go on
Speaker 3: for the next week or ten days, God knows how long.
Speaker 3: What should be done, what could be done, what must
Speaker 3: be done with this side is an evil in the
Speaker 3: modern world, that being Iran.
Speaker 7: Look, Iran has clearly been the destabilizing force in the
Speaker 7: Middle East, and they've funded proxy wars that have targeted
Speaker 7: you know, Israel. I mean, how did Homask get the
Speaker 7: money and do the effort to do the ten to
Speaker 7: seven massacre in Israel. Well, it's heavily Irun And this
Speaker 7: is why it was so foolish. What the Biden administration
Speaker 7: and frankly previously the Obama administration did was to you know,
Speaker 7: negotiate with Iran, give them cash. And Iran with cash
Speaker 7: is about as predictable as gravity. They're going to use
Speaker 7: it to attack Israel. So look, they've had essentially a
Speaker 7: proxy war going on between Iran and Israel, and an
Speaker 7: occasional flare up into a direct conflict between the two countries.
Speaker 7: And I got friends in Israel, I mean, just pull it.
Speaker 7: On a personal level. I've got friends in Israel. I
Speaker 7: wish them safety and success. I got no friends in Iran.
Speaker 7: I mean, I think there are lots of good Iranian people.
Speaker 7: They've got an evil government, sure, and they do evil things.
Speaker 7: So you know, I hope Israel prevails, but I do
Speaker 7: think it's not our war to fight or our war
Speaker 7: to fund. And I think Israel has historically said we're
Speaker 7: fine fighting our own wars. The trouble is is now
Speaker 7: everybody you know, the warmongers out there, say they look
Speaker 7: for every chance they can to get to get into
Speaker 7: a bigger, broader war. And if some of my colleagues
Speaker 7: in the House and a handful of senators I've talked
Speaker 7: to are darne near giddy about the prospect of getting
Speaker 7: us into a bigger war, whether it's with a Ran,
Speaker 7: with Russia in Ukraine or somewhere else, and they haven't
Speaker 7: found one.
Speaker 3: They don't like no at this point, and I would
Speaker 3: give them all the bunker buster bombs. They need to
Speaker 3: do everything they can do. Tell the Iranian people. And
Speaker 3: I thought Nettie, who was great the other day the
Speaker 3: other night, when he said, look, it's time for the
Speaker 3: Iranian people to arise. Siria was going to be there
Speaker 3: forever Lebanon was going to be there forever hesbel and Amas.
Speaker 5: Let's face it, the policies.
Speaker 3: Of Joe Biden funded terror all over the world, especially
Speaker 3: by giving the Iranians billions of dollars, and Obama had
Speaker 3: palettes of cash. They used that cash not to uplift
Speaker 3: their own people. They used it to kill Jews, kill
Speaker 3: Americans wherever they might be located, and funding hesbel hamas
Speaker 3: Boca Aram, they funded the Hoodies. They did everything they can.
Speaker 3: And now we have the go ahead to assist Israel
Speaker 3: by Muslim states who wants the whole thing to be
Speaker 3: over And that's the way it ought to be. Well, Congressman,
Speaker 3: we got to go. I know, in the next few
Speaker 3: weeks before July fourth, you're gonna have your the blow
Speaker 3: torch and the pliers are gonna come out. You're gonna
Speaker 3: have to make a big decision and it'll be based
Speaker 3: upon what that bill looks like. But Warren Davidson, once again,
Speaker 3: thanks for coming on the Bill Cunningham Show.
Speaker 5: And Warren, you're a great American. Thank you very much.
Speaker 7: Yeah, you two. And another great highlight was Army's birthday.
Speaker 7: What a great event.
Speaker 5: How about that? How about that? How about you were
Speaker 5: you were a ranger, you went to West Point.
Speaker 3: The juxtaposition of Donald Trump and the soldiers with the
Speaker 3: American flag marching down Pennsylvania Avenue, and compare that to
Speaker 3: what happened in Portland. What happened in Chicago, what happened
Speaker 3: in Austin, what happened in La what happened to San
Speaker 3: Francisco was unbelievable. The split screen only MSNBC did not
Speaker 3: like the American Parade on the two hundred and fiftieth
Speaker 3: anniversary of the Armies founding, of which you were a
Speaker 3: proud member. But once again, Warren Davidson, thank you very much.
Speaker 7: Yeah, yeah, thank you. I mean Sarah Huckabee. Sanators had
Speaker 7: it right, you know, normal and crazy, and it was
Speaker 7: definitely on display during that pree. Normal people were happy
Speaker 7: about it.
Speaker 5: God bless you. I'm normal and sir are you? But
Speaker 5: thank you for your service. Thank you very much.
Speaker 3: Well, let's continue with more and if the line becomes available,
Speaker 3: you know the routine Bill Cunningham with you every Sunday
Speaker 3: night by Billy Cunningham, the Great American. I love having
Speaker 3: on military types like Representative Warren Davidson of the Great
Speaker 3: State of Ohio because he was in the Rangers. He
Speaker 3: went to West Point and he was one of two
Speaker 3: Republicans who voted no on the big beautiful bill that's
Speaker 3: going to come back up again and the next what
Speaker 3: month or so, they want to get it passed by
Speaker 3: fourth of July, only two or three weeks away, and
Speaker 3: then but they really have it until September thirtieth to
Speaker 3: get it done. So good to get his perspective on
Speaker 3: this from Representative Davidson. We'll see where it goes, if anywhere.
Speaker 3: Secondly coming up next is Professor Yuri Kaufman. He's a
Speaker 3: wonderful guy. I had them on about five or six
Speaker 3: months ago about Israel, because what's happening now as I speak,
Speaker 3: there's the sixth or seventh reign of missiles are coming
Speaker 3: down on God's representative of the Middle East, that would be,
Speaker 3: of course Israel. And their response is is going to
Speaker 3: be I hope devastating. I hope America does all in
Speaker 3: his power to assist Israel with the help of Saudi
Speaker 3: Arabia in Syria and Turkey and indirectly Iraq. Iran needs
Speaker 3: to be taken down, and this is a perfect historical
Speaker 3: time for it to occur, to make it unlivable to
Speaker 3: live in Iran, and maybe the Iranians themselves would arise
Speaker 3: and get rid of the theocracy, which is a death cult.
Speaker 3: Even Russian and German soldiers want to live during horrible
Speaker 3: times they wanted to live. But the death cult means
Speaker 3: you have to die in a particular way. Then you
Speaker 3: have seventy two versions in heaven waiting for you. And
Speaker 3: as far as that goes, I hope Israel and Donald
Speaker 3: Trump arranges the meeting. So we'll see what happens over
Speaker 3: now tonight, coming up next to an expert on Israel,
Speaker 3: why they exist, and what they do, et cetera. If
Speaker 3: the line becomes available. Eight sixty six six four seven,
Speaker 3: seven three three seven Bill cunning In the Great American
Speaker 3: With you and all of the Great Americans every Sunday.
Speaker 5: By Bill cunning In, the Great American. Of course. Israel.
Speaker 3: Now, the attacks on Iran is continuing, are continuing, and
Speaker 3: this is a something that began in nineteen forty eight.
Speaker 3: And for those who think this is a brand new event,
Speaker 3: no it's not. Israel's been attacked multiple times by multiple
Speaker 3: factions over multiple generations and years, and this is an
Speaker 3: ongoing effort to take down the Iranian regime and make
Speaker 3: it look like some of the other more peaceful Muslim
Speaker 3: regimes in the Middle East. And we'll see what happens
Speaker 3: down the road. But this is an ongoing attack that's
Speaker 3: going to take several days. Jonan, You and I Alis
Speaker 3: Professor Yuri Kaufman. A new book is American Intafada, Israel,
Speaker 3: the Gaza War and the new anti Semitism that would
Speaker 3: be in America. And Professor Kaufman, welcome again to the
Speaker 3: Bill Cunningham Show. And first of all, when all this
Speaker 3: started a day or two ago, give me your reaction
Speaker 3: to what occurred and whether or not you see ultimative
Speaker 3: victory or not for Israel.
Speaker 12: Well, we're seeing here is historic. There's no other word
Speaker 12: for it. I mean, that word gets tossed around a lot,
Speaker 12: but this time it really is historic. That's the only
Speaker 12: way to describe this. It's been twenty five years in
Speaker 12: the making. In fact, Prime Minister Nitenio just said that
Speaker 12: when Ron Dermer, who was one of his I can't
Speaker 12: even say his right hand man, first joined him twenty
Speaker 12: five years ago and he asked, what's our biggest threat?
Speaker 7: Didt Yo said? If they're on?
Speaker 12: And nt Yo wrote a book all the way back
Speaker 12: in nineteen eighty two, was only three years after the
Speaker 12: Iatola's seis power there, and he said, all the way
Speaker 12: back then, these guys are crazy and they're going to
Speaker 12: try to get a nuclear weapons. So this is many, many,
Speaker 12: many years in the making. Israel has been planning this attack,
Speaker 12: we know, for over twenty years, and it finally came
Speaker 12: to being, and very it's a familiar tale if you
Speaker 12: follow Israel. It's being compared to the opening attack of
Speaker 12: the nineteen sixty seven war. And what happened then was
Speaker 12: you had this three week period it was known to
Speaker 12: Israelis as the ham Tanah, meaning the waiting period, three
Speaker 12: weeks of just nerve shattering waiting when the Arab armies
Speaker 12: all masked at the border. The Israelis tried everything everything
Speaker 12: to find a diplomatic way out, and when it became
Speaker 12: clear that there just wasn't one, they struck. And that's
Speaker 12: what happened this time, only the ham Tanah. The waiting
Speaker 12: was not three weeks. It was literally twenty years. And
Speaker 12: every avenue was attempted to bring this to some sort
Speaker 12: of peaceful and sadly, the Iotots just wouldn't listen to sense.
Speaker 12: President Trump told them sixty days ago on April a twelfth,
Speaker 12: you got sixty more days. Is will struck on the
Speaker 12: sixty first day. It's pretty clear that they saw it again.
Speaker 12: Prime Minister in Ntenio gave a press conference last night.
Speaker 12: He said, we saw they were finally reaching for the
Speaker 12: bomb itself. That no, it's not research, it's in Richmond.
Speaker 12: They're actually making a bomb and this is it. We
Speaker 12: just we couldn't wait any longer. So here we are, like,
Speaker 12: could just make one other point. The reason this is
Speaker 12: also so historic and it will be talked about for
Speaker 12: a long time is once again Israel is demonstrating the
Speaker 12: complete superiority of Western technology over anything that Iran or
Speaker 12: Russia or probably China might have. Everyone around the world
Speaker 12: is watching this with their jaw dropped. They were talking
Speaker 12: about a situation where, well, go back to sixty seven.
Speaker 12: They have this incredibly successful opening strike destroyed all the
Speaker 12: Arab air forces on the ground. What a lot of
Speaker 12: people don't know is in that attack Israel lost ten
Speaker 12: percent of all its planes. Now it didn't you know,
Speaker 12: they still won the war because the no longer had
Speaker 12: air forces, but they took terrible losses. They lost eight
Speaker 12: percent of the whole air force in this strike. Right
Speaker 12: now they are flying back and forth one thousand miles
Speaker 12: in each direction. They've wiped out Iran's air defense completely.
Speaker 12: They've wiped out much of their leadership, the head of
Speaker 12: the Revolutionary Guard. They've wiped out much of their nuclear assets,
Speaker 12: many of their military assets, whatever air force they had.
Speaker 12: They've flown all the way back to Israel. They've done
Speaker 12: it wave after wave after wave, and they haven't lost
Speaker 12: a single plane. They can literally fly in and out
Speaker 12: of Iran well the way you know, you or I
Speaker 12: fly from New York to Chicago. It is astonishing. I mean,
Speaker 12: it is unbelievable the technology, and you know Iran is
Speaker 12: going to respond with missiles somehow. But they've done this twice.
Speaker 12: They did it in April last year, twenty twenty four.
Speaker 12: They did it in October, same thing. Not one Israeli
Speaker 12: was killed. It's miraculous, achieved almost one hundred percent interception
Speaker 12: of all this ordinance Israel. Go back to the April attack.
Speaker 12: Iran we now know fired thirty cruise missiles, one hundred
Speaker 12: ballistic missiles, and.
Speaker 8: Hundreds and hundreds of drones.
Speaker 12: We don't even know how many. This is the biggest
Speaker 12: missile attack ever launched against any country in history. Israel
Speaker 12: shotdown pretty much all of that. They took one little
Speaker 12: girl who was unfortunately wounded, but that's it. Nobody was
Speaker 12: killed and there was no physical damage to the country.
Speaker 12: They think they blew a little hole in an air
Speaker 12: base somewhere. This is mind blowing. No one expected it
Speaker 12: to be the technology to work this well. If you're Russia,
Speaker 12: if you're China, you've got to be watching this and saying,
Speaker 12: wait a minute, you know, maybe we're not as strong
Speaker 12: as we thought we were. And that really shows why
Speaker 12: Israel is such a valuable ally and professor.
Speaker 3: Going back historically, the same thing happened in Bagdad when
Speaker 3: Sadim Mussin was in charge. Israel said not on my watch,
Speaker 3: and're not gonna have a nuclear weapon. They took down
Speaker 3: the nuclear facilities in Baghdad. Same thing in Syria. Syria
Speaker 3: under Asad wanted to have nuclear weapons as a trump
Speaker 3: card against Israel I guess against US. Took that down.
Speaker 3: But wasn't it a fool's Errand to believe that the Ayatola,
Speaker 3: which is a culture of death, not a culture of life,
Speaker 3: that they would willingly allow international inspections by Americans and
Speaker 3: others to guarantee they're not going to have weapons grade
Speaker 3: uranium to marry with a with a missile. But wasn't
Speaker 3: it kind of a fool's error to think that Iran
Speaker 3: would go the route of other nations. For example, they
Speaker 3: look at what happened into Libya when Moumarkkadaffi gave up
Speaker 3: his WMD within a year and a half, he was
Speaker 3: in a ditch somewhere fighting for his life.
Speaker 5: And when Baghdad fell.
Speaker 3: Look at the uh look at the killing by hanging
Speaker 3: of Sodom Hussein, and so the Iyotolus, et cetera are thinking,
Speaker 3: you know what, we have to have a nuclear weapon.
Speaker 3: If we don't have a nuclear weapon, we're going to
Speaker 3: face the same fate as Sanda Mussein.
Speaker 12: It's even worse than that. I mean, it's all those
Speaker 12: things that you've said are obviously true, but it's even
Speaker 12: worse than that.
Speaker 8: If I were to say to you.
Speaker 12: It literally goes down to the very culture itself. If
Speaker 12: I were to say to you, what is the purpose
Speaker 12: of government? You'd say, the purpose of government, it's to
Speaker 12: improve the lives of the citizenry. And then you might say,
Speaker 12: without a trick question, I mean, isn't that obvious? Well,
Speaker 12: it's obvious to us, but it's not so obvious to them.
Speaker 12: If you ask the Iyatolas what is the purpose of government,
Speaker 12: they would say, oh, simple, it's to spread radical Islam.
Speaker 12: It's to create a Shii talifate and kill anyone in
Speaker 12: our path. Ayatolaholmani once famously said the revolution was not
Speaker 12: about the price of watermelons. He also said economics is
Speaker 12: for donkeys, and what he meant by that was my
Speaker 12: job is not to make this country prosperous. My job
Speaker 12: is to spread radical Islam, no matter what it takes.
Speaker 12: And that is why you look at Iran. It is
Speaker 12: a nation with thirty percent unemployment, twenty percent inflation, They've
Speaker 12: got rolling blackouts, they can't keep the lights on. And
Speaker 12: here they are sending billions of dollars to the who
Speaker 12: these and billions to Hasbil, and billions to Kamas, billions
Speaker 12: on this crazy nuclear program. It is estimated that they
Speaker 12: lost a fifty billion dollar investment just on the proxies
Speaker 12: that were taken off the board by Israel. Now they're
Speaker 12: losing their nuclear ascids, and yet they keep sending all
Speaker 12: this money. Why do they keep doing it? Answer because
Speaker 12: the most important thing to them is spreading radical Islam.
Speaker 12: And so now a nation like that that gets a
Speaker 12: nuclear weapon, that is a very very dangerous world.
Speaker 3: In fact, Israel would be first, we'd be second, And
Speaker 3: so I cheer on the Israelis to do our bidding
Speaker 3: in a sense because having visited Israel about two and
Speaker 3: a half years ago, it was a wonderful Western style democracy.
Speaker 3: In fact, Uri Kaufman I saw gay pride flags and
Speaker 3: Tel Aviv and I'm thinking, well, I wonder how that
Speaker 3: would work, and many Muslim capitals it would not work.
Speaker 3: And so the idea that the Ayatola is now would
Speaker 3: step aside and say, you know what, Okay, we're going
Speaker 3: to give up all our nuclear weapons. Let's have a
Speaker 3: functioning westerners au democracy. Let's give our citizens a little
Speaker 3: bit of freedom. We're going to get rid of the
Speaker 3: death cult that calls for the killing, the murder of Westerners, Christians, Catholics,
Speaker 3: the Baptists, the Jews, whoever they might be located. That
Speaker 3: that was never going to happen. I can't conceive without occurring.
Speaker 3: And if you're an Iranian, Let's say you're a typical
Speaker 3: Iranian living somewhere somewhere in Tehran and you're watching this
Speaker 3: going on, can you get in the mind of the
Speaker 3: Iranian people and talk about whether or not they want
Speaker 3: to continue down this path.
Speaker 12: So pulling on Iran is a very very tricky piece
Speaker 12: of business, as it is in any totalitarian society. I mean,
Speaker 12: imagine you live in a country like that and some
Speaker 12: guy calls you on the phone and wants to know
Speaker 12: what you think of the regime. You know, you're probably
Speaker 12: not going to be all that open in your in
Speaker 12: your answers. Now, we do know Iran has a lot
Speaker 12: of minorities, first of all, so it's not, you know,
Speaker 12: a homogeneous country. You've got a lot of the Yazidi's,
Speaker 12: you've got a lot of Baha's, You've got a lot
Speaker 12: of other minorities. You don't believe in any of this nonsense.
Speaker 12: We also know that there is a cosmopolitan culture centered
Speaker 12: mostly in Carat. Now, having said that, there's also a culture.
Speaker 12: You go to the religious city, a place like komb
Speaker 12: or Isfahan, you've got a lot of very, very very
Speaker 12: radical people. The rumblings from the streets suggest there's a
Speaker 12: big opposition movement there. It perks its head up every
Speaker 12: couple of years. It came up in two thousand and nine.
Speaker 12: It bubbled up a few years ago as well. Each
Speaker 12: time the Iatols have been able to put it down.
Speaker 12: These things are very, very very hard to gauge from
Speaker 12: the outside. All I can say is revolutions are always
Speaker 12: the same. They look impossible before they happen, and they
Speaker 12: look inevitable after they happen. You know where we stand
Speaker 12: with Iran on this, We don't really know. But one
Speaker 12: thing I can say, we can't afford to sit back
Speaker 12: and hope the Iranian people solve this problem for us,
Speaker 12: because the odds are better than pretty good.
Speaker 2: That they won't.
Speaker 12: And a world again in which I tola Is have
Speaker 12: nuclear weapons is a very dangerous world. And again not
Speaker 12: just for Israel, but for the United States as well.
Speaker 12: They chance, You know, Israel is the little Satan, but
Speaker 12: we're the big Satan, and we know what they want
Speaker 12: to do with the big Satan. So this just shows
Speaker 12: how Israel is such a terrific ally, it's a force multiplier.
Speaker 12: They do a lot of the dirty work that we
Speaker 12: would otherwise have to do. As we said, they took
Speaker 12: out Sodom's reactor, they took out the Shar's reactor.
Speaker 8: They've done so many other.
Speaker 12: Things over the years. It really shows what an important
Speaker 12: ally israel is I.
Speaker 3: Would like to think a few weeks ago, when President
Speaker 3: Trump visited the more functional parts of Islamic republics in
Speaker 3: the Cutter in Saudi Arabia, et cetera, that he got
Speaker 3: a wink and a nod approval from MBS in Saudi Arabia,
Speaker 3: Mama Ben Salmon that what Israel and you were going
Speaker 3: to do? Just have at it describe the relationship between
Speaker 3: the more functional golf states and Iran.
Speaker 12: They're terrified. It's really as simple as that, because they
Speaker 12: know they are, of course Shuni Muslim. Iran is sie Muslim.
Speaker 12: The Iranians want nothing more than to conquer Mecca, to
Speaker 12: kill the Sunnis and turn it us into the capital
Speaker 12: of a Shiai caliphate as opposed to where it is
Speaker 12: now in sunny hands. The Saudis are delighted by this.
Speaker 12: They issued, you know, a very very bland statement condemning it,
Speaker 12: as did Cutter, as did a number of other countries.
Speaker 12: But it's obvious they're delighted that this happened because they
Speaker 12: know that they're being rescued just as readily as Israel
Speaker 12: is being rescued now. At the same time, they also
Speaker 12: know that it is possible that when Iran retaliates, and
Speaker 12: it will, they might retaliate against Saudi Arabia. Now why
Speaker 12: would they do that, Well, it's just the kind of
Speaker 12: way of saying, you know, if we're miserable, we're gonna
Speaker 12: make everybody miserable. We want the price of oil to
Speaker 12: be high. We want to hurt the West. So it
Speaker 12: really is just important that the United States stay involved
Speaker 12: and help defend the Saudi oil fields. We certainly have
Speaker 12: an interest there, and we have an interest in defending
Speaker 12: our allies in the region. And you know, Bahrain and
Speaker 12: Qatar definitely cutter is a very very strange situation.
Speaker 8: You know, they put a chip on.
Speaker 12: Every color on the board, so you know, they're kind
Speaker 12: of in our camp, but they're in the other camp
Speaker 12: as well. But we do have a very large air
Speaker 12: base there, So that's the country that we need to defend.
Speaker 3: Lastly, should Americans on the homeland be concerned. According to
Speaker 3: media accounts, there's thousands of Islamic terrorists led across the
Speaker 3: southern border by Joe Biden all over the country unvetted.
Speaker 3: Who are they were? Are that we have no idea.
Speaker 3: Ten to twelve million came in unvetted. Another ten million
Speaker 3: came in so called vetted. Should we be concerned about
Speaker 3: homegrown terrorism right here?
Speaker 12: Well, I don't think you're rod it's going to try
Speaker 12: to pick a fight with the US right now. So
Speaker 12: in that sense, I would say the answer is no.
Speaker 12: What I find more disturbing is just the fact that
Speaker 12: there seem to be a lot of people, and very
Speaker 12: often young people who just on their own, are inspired
Speaker 12: by these crazy radicalisms. And you know, we saw what
Speaker 12: happened that the murder of those two young Israeli diplomats.
Speaker 12: You see, not that long ago, there's been a lot
Speaker 12: of other I mean physical attacks on people. It is
Speaker 12: a little scary. I mean something like this, I would
Speaker 12: certainly be vigilant. Am I really alarmed by it?
Speaker 8: The answer is no, I am not. Well.
Speaker 3: Lastly, of course, Jews are set on fire. We have
Speaker 3: Jews being gunned down in our nation's capital. You have
Speaker 3: the democratic Jewish governor of Pennsylvania had his home firebomb.
Speaker 3: For God's sakes, and incredible stuff happening. I just I
Speaker 3: pray to God Israel is successful. Their success is to
Speaker 3: our betterment. Their failure would be awful. Can you imagine
Speaker 3: a world in which Israel's wiped off the face of
Speaker 3: the earth, and somehow Iran then spreads its tentacles. They
Speaker 3: are a culture of death who want to destroy not
Speaker 3: one of life. But once again, you're a Kaufman, professor.
Speaker 3: Thanks for coming on the Bill Cunningham Show. And we'll
Speaker 3: see what happens down the road. But the book is
Speaker 3: American Intafada, Israel, the Gods of War and the New
Speaker 3: Anti Semitism. But once again, thanks for coming on the
Speaker 3: Bill Cunningham Show, professor, Thank you.
Speaker 8: Very much, Thank you so much.
Speaker 5: God bless America. Let's continue with more.
Speaker 3: And there are useful idiots all over this country who
Speaker 3: act as if there's some union between American freedom on
Speaker 3: one hand and the Palestinian cause on the other, and
Speaker 3: that somehow the Gaza war is something that we should
Speaker 3: not be involved in because it doesn't involve us in
Speaker 3: a sense. It's a failure of our public education. And
Speaker 3: we have to understand the world as it is not
Speaker 3: the way the world we'd like it to be. How
Speaker 3: strong are the Israelis for the Israelis in Tel Aviv
Speaker 3: to organize, unbeknownst to the Iranian generals, a powwow of
Speaker 3: their joint chiefs of staff in one place and getting
Speaker 3: together in near Tehran, Iran thinking the eye Tota wanted
Speaker 3: to have a powwow with him, but the Israeli sit
Speaker 3: up the meeting. Then they had the Israeli send a
Speaker 3: missile and kill them all together at once. Is incredible.
Speaker 3: They now know they can't pick up a cell phone,
Speaker 3: they can't use a pager, they can't turn on the
Speaker 3: television sets, they don't want to use the air conditioners.
Speaker 3: In other words, they can't communicate and they can't meet.
Speaker 3: Now that's a problem when you're trying to conduct a war.
Speaker 3: Bill Cunningham, the Great American live with you every Sunday night.
Speaker 3: All right, Billy Cunningham, thanks for listening this Father's Day
Speaker 3: Sunday night. And as I said about an hour or
Speaker 3: so ago, if you're strange from your father, let this
Speaker 3: be the occasion to reach out, to reach back, to
Speaker 3: try one more time to connect during the living years,
Speaker 3: to see if there's some reproachment that could take place,
Speaker 3: because once he's dead it's not possible.
Speaker 5: It's not possible.
Speaker 3: I've forgiven my father for what he's did to me
Speaker 3: and my family, my brothers, and my sister and my
Speaker 3: beloved saintly mother in the arms of God Almighty as
Speaker 3: I speak. So take that opportunity to reach back and
Speaker 3: say to your dad, I accept your apology. Let's start
Speaker 3: a new relationship. Secondly, I also want to note that
Speaker 3: it was great at having on Congressman Warren Davidson, who
Speaker 3: was one of two Republican votes against the Big Beautiful
Speaker 3: bill put together. Donald Trump also would note that the murderer,
Speaker 3: Vance Luther Belter has been apprehended about an hour and
Speaker 3: a half ago in the murder of the Speaker of
Speaker 3: the House in Minnesota, Melissa Hortman, her husband Mark, and
Speaker 3: the shooting of two others. Also would note a lot
Speaker 3: of stuff going on tonight. That Israel's under a vicious
Speaker 3: attack again from Iran, who's committed to the death and
Speaker 3: destruction of Jews and Christians wherever they might be located.
Speaker 5: It is a death cult.
Speaker 3: That must be eliminated from the face of the earth,
Speaker 3: and I pray to God that the Donald Trump works
Speaker 3: with Benjamin Henchinahoo to make that happen. There will be
Speaker 3: no American soldiers walking into Iran. That's what happened with
Speaker 3: the disasters in Afghanistan and Iraq, but the freedom of
Speaker 3: the Middle East is at hand. The moment is incredible,
Speaker 3: and this is when Israel and America must oppress its
Speaker 3: case to bring about the complete destruction of a theatric
Speaker 3: rule in Iran, that is a death cult wanting to
Speaker 3: kill all but those who believe in their particular branch
Speaker 3: of Islam. Of course, the number one victims of the
Speaker 3: Iranian extremists are Muslims themselves. Over the last thirty seven years,
Speaker 3: hundreds of thousands have been killed by the death cult
Speaker 3: in Iran, and God bless Israel. Thanks for listening. Do
Speaker 3: it again soon every Sunday night. But once again, I
Speaker 3: want to acknowledge forgiveness of my father, and I pray
Speaker 3: that you have time tonight or tomorrow to do the
Speaker 3: same with your father if your relationship is estranged. Once again,
Speaker 3: thanks for listening. Bill Cunningham, the great American with you
Speaker 3: and all great Americans every Sunday night.
