WEBVTT 1 00:00:05.040 --> 00:00:10.679 Five oh five. I think five KRC the talk station. 2 00:00:11.000 --> 00:00:29.640 Happy Wednesday, all Kenny Loggins, because you're in the danger zone. 3 00:00:29.679 --> 00:00:31.679 Yeah, apparently, since An is in the danger zone so 4 00:00:31.760 --> 00:00:34.520 much so that the ATF is offering twenty five hundred 5 00:00:34.520 --> 00:00:38.520 dollars cash rewards for helping police arrest violent offenders. How 6 00:00:38.560 --> 00:00:44.359 about that Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms and Explosives 7 00:00:44.399 --> 00:00:48.399 gets Cincinnati on its radar with its offer of rewards 8 00:00:48.439 --> 00:00:52.640 for local crime. Interesting and scary reality that, of course, 9 00:00:52.679 --> 00:00:54.479 has been the topic of conversation of late here in 10 00:00:54.479 --> 00:00:55.079 the fifty five. 11 00:00:55.000 --> 00:00:55.920 KRC Morning Show. 12 00:00:55.920 --> 00:00:58.079 We got a problem with violence in downtown Cincinnati, and 13 00:00:58.119 --> 00:01:01.240 our elected officials are ignoring it, least in so far 14 00:01:01.280 --> 00:01:05.599 as any comments in the news or you know, maybe 15 00:01:05.640 --> 00:01:07.400 just a suggest that they might want to support this 16 00:01:07.480 --> 00:01:11.480 insane police department. Anyway, don't let's not beat that dead horse. 17 00:01:11.519 --> 00:01:13.599 But that's a reality. We'll talk about that this morning. 18 00:01:13.640 --> 00:01:17.519 Coming up seven oh five, It's Wednesday Big Picture with 19 00:01:17.599 --> 00:01:23.280 Jack Avidan today. Trump and Churchill love Jack's historic sort 20 00:01:23.319 --> 00:01:26.799 of connection with history and modern times. Just a brilliant man. 21 00:01:27.000 --> 00:01:28.879 I always enjoy having him on the morning show. And 22 00:01:28.920 --> 00:01:31.920 we'll get him back at seven five Donovan and Neil 23 00:01:31.920 --> 00:01:35.799 Americans for Prosperity. Of course, Ohio lawmakers passed the budget, 24 00:01:35.840 --> 00:01:38.439 but Mike de Wine overrode a lot of things with 25 00:01:38.480 --> 00:01:42.799 the Lion item veto Now Ohio while lawmakers is set 26 00:01:42.879 --> 00:01:45.439 to override some of those vetos. Donovan and Neil behind 27 00:01:45.439 --> 00:01:48.640 that effort with Americans for Prosperity, we'll be talking about 28 00:01:48.680 --> 00:01:52.079 their efforts to override the property tax County Budget Commission 29 00:01:52.159 --> 00:01:56.079 authority and procedure veto the twenty mili floor calculation and 30 00:01:57.120 --> 00:02:02.840 the school district property tax levy restrictions. Mark dan who 31 00:02:02.920 --> 00:02:05.079 is Mark Dan, Mark Dan's lawyer. Mark Dann is the 32 00:02:05.079 --> 00:02:07.400 founding partner of Dan Law and they have filed a 33 00:02:07.439 --> 00:02:10.400 law suits again at Ohio. Going back to the budget 34 00:02:10.439 --> 00:02:16.240 about the Browns Stadium funding stealing money from the unclaimed funds. 35 00:02:18.560 --> 00:02:19.080 I don't know. 36 00:02:20.520 --> 00:02:22.240 We all found out that we have four point five 37 00:02:22.319 --> 00:02:25.120 plus billion dollars in unclaimed funds. These are you know, 38 00:02:25.159 --> 00:02:27.439 bank accounts that are closed and settlements and things that 39 00:02:27.479 --> 00:02:32.120 people didn't actually pursue, and it exists in a fund 40 00:02:32.240 --> 00:02:34.199 held for the benefit of those people who are entitled 41 00:02:34.240 --> 00:02:35.759 to the to the fund money. 42 00:02:37.719 --> 00:02:42.199 And yet our good friends. 43 00:02:42.199 --> 00:02:44.520 Elected officials and Columbus decided to raid that to give 44 00:02:44.520 --> 00:02:47.280 the Cleveland Browns six hundred million dollars. Well, now it's 45 00:02:47.319 --> 00:02:49.919 the subject of a lawsuit. Mark Dan founding partner of 46 00:02:50.000 --> 00:02:52.439 Dan Law, behind the lawsuit. We joined the program at 47 00:02:52.439 --> 00:02:54.719 eight oh five to talk about that. Judge Napolitano on 48 00:02:54.840 --> 00:02:58.879 searching for Monsters that will happen at eight thirty and 49 00:02:59.000 --> 00:03:00.560 between now and then you can feel free to call 50 00:03:00.639 --> 00:03:02.840 five one, three, seven, four, nine fifty, five hundred, eight 51 00:03:02.960 --> 00:03:05.479 hundred and eighty two to three talk pound five fifty 52 00:03:05.479 --> 00:03:07.840 on AT and T phones. Not knowing where I wanted 53 00:03:07.879 --> 00:03:09.919 to start this morning. It's not of like a mixed 54 00:03:09.919 --> 00:03:13.520 bag of stuff. Whish you could see my desk right now. 55 00:03:14.479 --> 00:03:15.199 Oh my god. 56 00:03:15.319 --> 00:03:19.680 The topics of discussion are far and wide. Heyay, well 57 00:03:19.680 --> 00:03:21.919 they's just focused real quickly here on our conversation with 58 00:03:21.960 --> 00:03:25.360 Mark Dan coming up. Lawsuit filed by the Dan Law 59 00:03:26.680 --> 00:03:31.039 Lakewood Firms seeking class action status on behalf of the 60 00:03:31.159 --> 00:03:35.199 thousands of Ohioans that have or may have money in 61 00:03:35.280 --> 00:03:40.400 that unclaimed funds account. I guess you can call it 62 00:03:40.439 --> 00:03:43.520 that found in Franklin County comme a police court alleges 63 00:03:43.560 --> 00:03:47.560 that taking money from the unclaimed funds for stadium violates 64 00:03:47.599 --> 00:03:50.599 the state's role as a custodian and runs a foul 65 00:03:50.639 --> 00:03:54.599 of both the US and Ohio constitutions. Court to lawsuit, 66 00:03:54.639 --> 00:03:58.639 the state now intends to confiscate the private property held 67 00:03:58.680 --> 00:04:01.000 on the Unclaimed Funds account for the purpose of funding 68 00:04:01.120 --> 00:04:06.439 private development. The private the rightful owners of the property. 69 00:04:06.879 --> 00:04:08.919 State intends to do so even though it has been 70 00:04:09.039 --> 00:04:11.120 long settled to the funds held by the State of 71 00:04:11.120 --> 00:04:17.000 Ohio and its Unclaimed Funds Account are private property, says 72 00:04:17.040 --> 00:04:18.920 the unclaim Funds account is not the property of the 73 00:04:18.920 --> 00:04:21.720 State of Ohio to use as it deems fit. Moreover, 74 00:04:21.800 --> 00:04:25.399 unclaimed funds are not the property described as operating revenue 75 00:04:25.839 --> 00:04:28.279 or a component of the state's general fund to be 76 00:04:28.319 --> 00:04:31.959 appropriated as part of the state's budget, which makes sense, 77 00:04:32.000 --> 00:04:37.079 although I think the budget transforms the unclaimed property Unclaimed 78 00:04:37.079 --> 00:04:43.279 Funds account into something that is usable after the funds 79 00:04:43.319 --> 00:04:46.759 remain unclaimed after ten years. So was there a change 80 00:04:46.759 --> 00:04:50.319 of law that will allow access to these funds as 81 00:04:50.399 --> 00:04:53.079 are being used in the state's budget proposal with the 82 00:04:53.120 --> 00:04:58.319 six hundred million going to the Cleveland Browns. I personally 83 00:04:58.319 --> 00:05:01.079 find the concept defensive or not, it's legal or not. 84 00:05:01.199 --> 00:05:02.560 That's what the lawsuits all about. 85 00:05:05.120 --> 00:05:05.360 Hmm. 86 00:05:06.439 --> 00:05:09.879 Described as not a surprise apparently last month after Republican 87 00:05:09.879 --> 00:05:12.879 members of the Ohio Senate provided a pivot to unclaimed 88 00:05:12.879 --> 00:05:15.319 funds as a way to provide that money to the 89 00:05:15.319 --> 00:05:19.399 Brown Stadium away from borrowing the money, which that's a 90 00:05:19.480 --> 00:05:20.360 dumb concept. 91 00:05:21.759 --> 00:05:23.160 Again, we're talking about. 92 00:05:23.000 --> 00:05:27.079 Private owned stadium here, we're talking about private owned sports team. 93 00:05:27.680 --> 00:05:30.120 They were gonna, I mean the idea that originally under 94 00:05:30.160 --> 00:05:32.480 the first proposal out of the Republicans in the House, 95 00:05:32.839 --> 00:05:38.360 they were going to borrow six hundred million dollars and 96 00:05:38.399 --> 00:05:40.600 then pay debt service on it, bringing the grand total 97 00:05:40.639 --> 00:05:43.560 with interest payments to more than a billion dollars to 98 00:05:43.639 --> 00:05:52.079 give to the Browns. Talk about stupid anyway, pivoting over 99 00:05:52.199 --> 00:05:54.399 to using unclaimed funds. At least it's a pile of 100 00:05:54.399 --> 00:05:56.639 money that was untapped. Okay, well, why not just take 101 00:05:56.680 --> 00:05:57.920 it from there. At least we're not going to have 102 00:05:57.959 --> 00:06:01.000 to pay debt service on it. It makes but is it 103 00:06:01.079 --> 00:06:05.040 lawful to do that? And that's not even discussing the 104 00:06:05.079 --> 00:06:10.000 ethics and the morality and the propriety of doing that anyway, 105 00:06:11.560 --> 00:06:13.839 and the silence is deafening. How is it that they 106 00:06:13.839 --> 00:06:16.560 were able to leverage the Browns were able to leverage 107 00:06:16.560 --> 00:06:20.240 that much influence over elected officials that come from the 108 00:06:20.399 --> 00:06:23.879 entire state of Ohio to get that component approved in 109 00:06:23.959 --> 00:06:30.519 the budget. Waw Anyway. The attorneys that are behind this 110 00:06:31.319 --> 00:06:35.319 former state Representative Jeff Grossman and former Ohio Attorney General 111 00:06:35.360 --> 00:06:37.360 Mark Dan Dan Law is the name of the firm. 112 00:06:37.399 --> 00:06:38.399 They're both Democrats. 113 00:06:40.040 --> 00:06:42.839 They've sued the Ohio Department of Commerce, ahead of the 114 00:06:42.879 --> 00:06:46.079 State's Division of Unclaimed Funds, the State Treasurer, and the 115 00:06:46.120 --> 00:06:49.959 executive director of the How Facilities Construction Commission, those of 116 00:06:50.000 --> 00:06:56.040 the defendants. There's four point eight billion dollars in that fund, 117 00:06:57.240 --> 00:07:01.279 old bank accounts, uncashed checks, life life insurance payouts, and 118 00:07:01.319 --> 00:07:04.319 other sources. Joe Strecker tapped into the fund the other day. 119 00:07:04.360 --> 00:07:06.160 He was how much did you get? Was it seventy 120 00:07:06.160 --> 00:07:06.639 five bucks? 121 00:07:06.720 --> 00:07:11.920 Joe? Less than twenty? But there it was. 122 00:07:18.480 --> 00:07:21.160 Language in the Ohio's newly approved to your operating budget 123 00:07:21.279 --> 00:07:24.160 changes the way Ohio safeguards is unclaimed funds. This is 124 00:07:24.160 --> 00:07:26.439 what I was pointing to a change in the law. 125 00:07:26.519 --> 00:07:28.800 Previously it had to be held there which I guess 126 00:07:28.839 --> 00:07:31.120 is how it ended up being four point eight billion dollars. 127 00:07:31.279 --> 00:07:32.399 It just keeps getting. 128 00:07:32.160 --> 00:07:34.759 Bigger and bigger and bigger every year because they couldn't 129 00:07:34.879 --> 00:07:39.399 use it for any other purpose. Until now, the state 130 00:07:39.480 --> 00:07:43.279 held the missing money in perpetuity while using some of 131 00:07:43.279 --> 00:07:46.680 it to plug budget holes and give short term loans 132 00:07:46.680 --> 00:07:49.279 to affordable housing developers, in the same way banks use 133 00:07:49.319 --> 00:07:52.319 your deposits to make loans while keeping a certain amount 134 00:07:52.319 --> 00:07:54.519 of cash on hand. But going forward, people who will 135 00:07:54.519 --> 00:07:58.279 only have ten years to file claims, and after that 136 00:07:58.360 --> 00:08:02.480 the unclaimed funds, along with interest earned, become the states property, 137 00:08:02.800 --> 00:08:05.439 which is the argument I suppose the folks behind the 138 00:08:05.439 --> 00:08:08.319 budget would use, say, listen, we changed the law. Money's 139 00:08:08.319 --> 00:08:10.240 been laying around more than ten years. We're entitled to 140 00:08:10.279 --> 00:08:12.360 use it for whatever purpose we want. Then you can 141 00:08:12.399 --> 00:08:16.160 move over to whether it's right, ethical, honorable, moral appropriate 142 00:08:16.199 --> 00:08:19.480 to give some private stadium owner or a football team 143 00:08:19.519 --> 00:08:23.439 owner the money that is well from this general fund, 144 00:08:23.480 --> 00:08:27.240 this unclaimed fund pile. I don't care whether it comes 145 00:08:27.279 --> 00:08:29.480 from the general fund or the unclaimed funds pile, or 146 00:08:29.519 --> 00:08:35.200 whether it's from a borrowing doing. It is wrong. You're 147 00:08:35.200 --> 00:08:48.440 never going to commitce me otherwise. Apparently, the budget that 148 00:08:48.480 --> 00:08:52.639 was by the Republican lawmakers and signed by DeWine creates 149 00:08:52.639 --> 00:08:55.600 a grace period for people whose money gets taken by 150 00:08:55.679 --> 00:08:57.799 the state. They'll still be able to file claims through 151 00:08:57.879 --> 00:09:08.639 January first of twenty third six. Nonetheless, in the lawsuit, 152 00:09:09.480 --> 00:09:12.440 they argue the state isn't doing anywhere near enough to 153 00:09:12.720 --> 00:09:15.559 reunite people with their money. They're also asserting that Ohio 154 00:09:15.639 --> 00:09:18.360 is preparing to use the public's misplaced cash for what 155 00:09:18.879 --> 00:09:24.080 is fundamentally a private purpose to the benefit of an 156 00:09:24.159 --> 00:09:27.399 NFL team exactly, and we should have more and more 157 00:09:27.519 --> 00:09:31.240 arguments about whether this is appropriate or not. Apparently, the 158 00:09:31.320 --> 00:09:34.559 lawmakers in the in the budget earmarked one dollars a 159 00:09:34.679 --> 00:09:39.600 year for advertising and outreach about the unclaimed funds. In 160 00:09:39.639 --> 00:09:41.679 other words, you're probably going to see advertising, maybe a 161 00:09:41.679 --> 00:09:44.600 commercial while you're watching Wheel of Fortune or something saying, hey, 162 00:09:44.879 --> 00:09:47.080 do you realize we've got four point eight billion dollars 163 00:09:47.120 --> 00:09:49.360 in unclaimed funds? Could be you you may have a 164 00:09:49.399 --> 00:09:51.480 slice of the action. Please get in touch with the 165 00:09:51.559 --> 00:09:53.799 unclaimed funds and find out if you're eligible to get 166 00:09:53.799 --> 00:10:02.120 some of this money. And honestly, did anybody know that 167 00:10:02.159 --> 00:10:04.440 we had this four point eight billion dollar pile of 168 00:10:04.519 --> 00:10:09.159 money prior to the idea of giving it to the 169 00:10:09.159 --> 00:10:11.639 Browns or giving a chunk of it to the Browns 170 00:10:11.639 --> 00:10:14.519 and the budget, they might know it was even out there. 171 00:10:14.559 --> 00:10:16.399 I guess that's part of the ad campaign. It's part 172 00:10:16.440 --> 00:10:19.879 of the lawsuit too. You know, nobody knows it's even there. 173 00:10:20.600 --> 00:10:20.759 Oh. 174 00:10:20.799 --> 00:10:23.240 By the way, you've got money in a fund in Ohio. 175 00:10:23.279 --> 00:10:24.879 You might want to look into it and see if 176 00:10:24.960 --> 00:10:27.360 some of it is actually yours or if you qualify 177 00:10:27.399 --> 00:10:33.120 to get some of this money. Anyhow, I'm looking forward 178 00:10:33.159 --> 00:10:35.919 to talking to him about it. I'm sure he's as 179 00:10:35.960 --> 00:10:39.639 incensed as I am about the concept, but whether or 180 00:10:39.639 --> 00:10:41.879 not his lawsuit will have legs remains to be seen. 181 00:10:43.120 --> 00:10:45.480 Five sixteen fifty five K City Talk Station'd love to 182 00:10:45.480 --> 00:10:48.080 hear from you, considering I have no idea which direction 183 00:10:48.200 --> 00:10:49.559 I want to go here in the morning show this 184 00:10:49.639 --> 00:10:52.960 morning it is listener lunch Wednesday, though, so if you 185 00:10:52.960 --> 00:10:54.480 don't have anything to do for lunch, show up at 186 00:10:54.559 --> 00:10:58.120 Wandering Monsters Brewery and Beachmont Avenue today eleven thirty.

It's weather resistant, it's UV resistant, 194 00:11:19.799 --> 00:11:23.120 it's got a twenty five year warranty. I was so 195 00:11:23.240 --> 00:11:25.840 taken by Rhino Shield. Yes, I went and had my 196 00:11:26.000 --> 00:11:29.679 daughter and her fiancees barn painted on the farmat Big 197 00:11:29.720 --> 00:11:33.759 Barn too. It was a big project, but it looked terrible. 198 00:11:33.759 --> 00:11:37.399 It was flaking, it was ugly. It needed to be painted. 199 00:11:37.399 --> 00:11:38.799 And I know they didn't have the money in their 200 00:11:38.840 --> 00:11:41.360 budget because they're young couple struggling with money, you know, 201 00:11:41.559 --> 00:11:44.519 like all young people starting out. They got other expenses 202 00:11:44.559 --> 00:11:47.080 to deal with, So why not. And I knew that 203 00:11:47.159 --> 00:11:50.759 Rhino Shield ceramic coating with stronger, more protective alternative to 204 00:11:50.799 --> 00:11:55.679 traditional paint.

The Insight Scoop with the brke Bart news 229 00:13:06.159 --> 00:13:09.879 about the flooding in Texas, Randy Cross, the Texas Border expert, 230 00:13:10.559 --> 00:13:13.000 and Corey Bowman. A few comments from Corey Bowman, who 231 00:13:13.039 --> 00:13:14.960 is running for mayor. We do have an alternative to 232 00:13:15.000 --> 00:13:16.720 the violence inherent in the system here in the city 233 00:13:16.759 --> 00:13:19.120 of Cincinnati, and Corey Bowman, I think is a refreshing 234 00:13:19.200 --> 00:13:21.080 change from what we've got to deal with right now. 235 00:13:21.320 --> 00:13:23.039 Over to the phones we go. It's what Jay's got 236 00:13:23.039 --> 00:13:25.799 this morning. Jay, good to hear from me, as always, welcome. 237 00:13:26.840 --> 00:13:27.919 Good morning, Brian Hay. 238 00:13:27.960 --> 00:13:31.320 That is fantastic news that there's a lawsuit coming against 239 00:13:31.360 --> 00:13:32.159 this Brown Steel. 240 00:13:32.399 --> 00:13:34.440 Yeah. 241 00:13:32.799 --> 00:13:37.759 The the interesting thing is how the Republican Party in 242 00:13:37.840 --> 00:13:41.480 Columbus has turned into like the Democrat Party in Chicago, 243 00:13:42.840 --> 00:13:45.600 just full of corruption and payoff. And you know, I 244 00:13:45.679 --> 00:13:48.559 keep going back to Larry Householder, former Sticker of the 245 00:13:48.600 --> 00:13:52.159 house took money from a private business called First Energy 246 00:13:52.240 --> 00:13:52.759 to build. 247 00:13:52.600 --> 00:13:55.159 A new plant, and I think he's in jail. Matt 248 00:13:55.240 --> 00:13:56.080 Huffman took. 249 00:13:55.919 --> 00:13:59.000 Money from a private business called the Cleveland Browns, and 250 00:13:59.639 --> 00:14:00.840 I think he's living large. 251 00:14:01.360 --> 00:14:02.120 He might be getting a. 252 00:14:02.120 --> 00:14:05.120 Little bit nervous, but you know, I would like to 253 00:14:05.159 --> 00:14:07.519 see Huffman head to prison. I would like to see 254 00:14:07.559 --> 00:14:10.639 Dave Yost getting peached along with the wine. We don't 255 00:14:10.639 --> 00:14:13.639 need an attorney general. If an attorney general, all he 256 00:14:13.720 --> 00:14:17.360 can do is I heard on the news that maybe 257 00:14:17.360 --> 00:14:20.360 from your show, that he told the wine to to 258 00:14:20.360 --> 00:14:23.600 to veto the money going to the Browns, and then 259 00:14:23.720 --> 00:14:26.159 the wine probably laughed at him and continue to go. 260 00:14:26.200 --> 00:14:26.879 Forward with it. 261 00:14:27.240 --> 00:14:29.799 And then I guess at that point Dave Yosk decided not. 262 00:14:29.840 --> 00:14:31.240 To follow the Ohio. 263 00:14:30.919 --> 00:14:34.879 Constitution and protect the Ohio taxpayers. Uh, you know, politically 264 00:14:34.919 --> 00:14:37.120 for him, let's let's let's give him a little air cover. 265 00:14:37.200 --> 00:14:40.720 It's a little it's easier so to to just ignore it. 266 00:14:40.879 --> 00:14:44.200 So if this is successful and and I guess the 267 00:14:44.559 --> 00:14:48.159 lawsuit will determined whether it is constitution or not. But 268 00:14:48.279 --> 00:14:51.519 if they find out that this was illegal, then we 269 00:14:51.600 --> 00:14:54.399 really don't need an Ohio Attorney General's office. It's going 270 00:14:54.480 --> 00:14:57.320 to do nothing other than follow the governor like a lapdog. 271 00:14:58.679 --> 00:15:01.440 And there I hope that this the accountability on this 272 00:15:01.600 --> 00:15:05.960 and the the publicity and the amount of coverage from 273 00:15:05.960 --> 00:15:09.320 the press equals that of First Energy and Larry Householder, 274 00:15:09.960 --> 00:15:12.240 because I don't think there's a dime's worth of difference. 275 00:15:14.159 --> 00:15:17.240 Well, I appreciate your conclusion in that regard. I mean 276 00:15:17.279 --> 00:15:19.960 that's why I am generally in I mean, since over 277 00:15:20.000 --> 00:15:22.679 the general concept. Given the Cleveland Browns the money, they're 278 00:15:22.759 --> 00:15:26.799 private sports entity, they're privately owned. I mean, you know, Jay, 279 00:15:26.840 --> 00:15:29.000 if you owned a company, do you expect in the 280 00:15:29.039 --> 00:15:32.639 budget that the taxpayers of the state of Ohio would 281 00:15:32.639 --> 00:15:35.960 be providing your company with a cash infusion. 282 00:15:36.480 --> 00:15:39.440 I mean, I think the obvious you do own a company. 283 00:15:39.919 --> 00:15:42.879 Yeah, I do own a company. And what I've said 284 00:15:42.919 --> 00:15:45.320 is they're going to do this for one private business. Yeah, 285 00:15:45.399 --> 00:15:47.960 then they need to codify it in the law. So 286 00:15:48.000 --> 00:15:50.000 how do the rest of us sign up and get 287 00:15:50.159 --> 00:15:51.720 our six hundred million dollars? 288 00:15:51.720 --> 00:15:52.240 Exactly? 289 00:15:53.080 --> 00:15:56.799 Start a line to be wrapped around multiple blocks, street 290 00:15:56.799 --> 00:15:59.679 blocks in Columbus. People standing around and they're private businesses 291 00:15:59.720 --> 00:16:02.639 with their handout saying, Hey, what am I any different 292 00:16:02.639 --> 00:16:03.720 than the Cleveland Browns. 293 00:16:04.080 --> 00:16:07.080 No, give my money. It's a ridiculous concept. 294 00:16:08.480 --> 00:16:11.080 Good and again, what does the state get from it? 295 00:16:11.159 --> 00:16:13.679 We've we've been giving money to the Cleveland Browns for 296 00:16:13.720 --> 00:16:16.679 seventy years and I'll say it again, Cleveland is still 297 00:16:16.679 --> 00:16:21.159 a dump and that's based on that's based on business development, 298 00:16:21.480 --> 00:16:25.159 how much economic development is going on. There's five categories 299 00:16:25.240 --> 00:16:29.840 of economic development. Cleveland and Northeast Ohio is always in 300 00:16:29.879 --> 00:16:33.360 the bottom. Youngstown is the perennial last, and out of 301 00:16:33.360 --> 00:16:36.320 the top two hundred metro areas, Cleveland is always in 302 00:16:36.360 --> 00:16:39.639 the bottom ten. Well, so where's the retirement investment? 303 00:16:40.720 --> 00:16:42.759 I agree with you general, I'm not going to say 304 00:16:42.759 --> 00:16:45.080 it's a dump, But it doesn't matter whether it's a 305 00:16:45.159 --> 00:16:50.080 dump or a wildly successful city being run efficiently and 306 00:16:50.440 --> 00:16:54.240 it is prosperous, it still doesn't address the point of 307 00:16:54.279 --> 00:16:57.279 why is it a private sports entity is entitled to 308 00:16:57.480 --> 00:17:00.120 any money from the State of Ohio, most notably in 309 00:17:00.120 --> 00:17:01.480 a line item in a budget. 310 00:17:02.039 --> 00:17:04.880 It's just it's great. It's just wrong, period. 311 00:17:05.079 --> 00:17:05.440 Agreed. 312 00:17:05.519 --> 00:17:08.160 They're going to use the excuse that it's going to 313 00:17:08.200 --> 00:17:11.920 create economic development, I know, and prosperity. That's that's why 314 00:17:11.960 --> 00:17:15.480 I'm deflating that balloon, because it's had They've had seventy 315 00:17:15.519 --> 00:17:17.799 years to show that that to show that proof, and 316 00:17:17.880 --> 00:17:18.440 they've failed. 317 00:17:18.599 --> 00:17:21.319 Right as I make obscene hand gestures while listening to 318 00:17:21.400 --> 00:17:23.880 that argument, right, you know, I mean, sure it is. 319 00:17:24.720 --> 00:17:26.839 We all realize and I think most people know that 320 00:17:26.920 --> 00:17:29.799 the return on investment that they claim is brought about 321 00:17:29.799 --> 00:17:33.039 by these sports activities is nowhere near what they claim 322 00:17:33.079 --> 00:17:37.279 it to be. Uh Yeah, frustrating, Jay and yeah here 323 00:17:37.559 --> 00:17:41.000 as we part company. It was reported about Attorney General 324 00:17:41.079 --> 00:17:44.480 Dave Gyhost Ghost on June twenty seven cent a letter 325 00:17:44.480 --> 00:17:49.759 to the wine to veto that budget. Languageost echoing concerns 326 00:17:49.759 --> 00:17:52.519 of the national unclaimed property experts, who say that taking 327 00:17:52.559 --> 00:17:55.319 ownership of unclaimed funds after a decade will make Ohio 328 00:17:55.400 --> 00:18:00.599 a national outlier and be bad public policy. Yes, although 329 00:18:00.599 --> 00:18:03.759 he didn't weigh on legal issues anyway. He wrote to 330 00:18:03.920 --> 00:18:07.559 the governor billionaires should finance their own stadiums full stop. 331 00:18:08.079 --> 00:18:08.319 Right. 332 00:18:09.319 --> 00:18:11.720 The six hundred million dollar handoff for a single professional 333 00:18:11.759 --> 00:18:16.400 sports facility raises serious concerns about the fiscal sustainability and fairness. 334 00:18:16.480 --> 00:18:20.920 While public private partnerships can sometimes support community development, this 335 00:18:21.000 --> 00:18:25.559 provision risk prioritizing one private entity over more urgent state 336 00:18:25.599 --> 00:18:28.880 wide needs. Exactly the point I'm making. Yost made to 337 00:18:28.920 --> 00:18:31.720 the governor, But he didn't say, Governor, you must line 338 00:18:31.759 --> 00:18:33.920 on and vito this because ultimately it's going to be 339 00:18:34.039 --> 00:18:36.880 challenged in court and it will be deemed illegal for 340 00:18:36.960 --> 00:18:40.119 the following reasons and then breaking down a legal point 341 00:18:40.200 --> 00:18:42.200 or thing, which is what I think his role as 342 00:18:42.200 --> 00:18:44.880 the Attorney General is supposed to do. Anyway, he was 343 00:18:44.920 --> 00:18:47.599 just offering his policy comments, which are the comments that 344 00:18:47.640 --> 00:18:50.559 you and I are making so well. I'm looking forward 345 00:18:50.559 --> 00:18:52.680 to having the lawyer behind the lawsuit on the program. 346 00:18:52.680 --> 00:18:55.759 Maybe he can address the legal realities of it, since 347 00:18:56.079 --> 00:18:59.200 they purportedly changed the law allowing them access and their 348 00:18:59.240 --> 00:19:02.680 sticky fingers access to this money if it's unclaimed after 349 00:19:02.720 --> 00:19:03.319 ten years. 350 00:19:03.799 --> 00:19:04.759 Appreciate it, Jay. 351 00:19:04.880 --> 00:19:07.799 As always, it is five point twenty seven right now 352 00:19:08.319 --> 00:19:10.480 the fifty five k SE the talk station.

Kind 379 00:20:38.079 --> 00:20:41.400 of liked it. Good job, Chip. And then there's my 380 00:20:41.839 --> 00:20:44.920 submariner friend Cribbage Mike, who I will see today at 381 00:20:44.960 --> 00:20:48.519 listener lunch. He pointed out on the heels of Jay's call. 382 00:20:49.160 --> 00:20:54.119 Cleveland Brown's Stadium was first Energy Stadium, that is, until 383 00:20:54.200 --> 00:20:56.880 Larry Householders scam blew it all up. It's now Huntingdon 384 00:20:56.960 --> 00:21:01.799 bank Field. That's funny connecting those two well scandals over 385 00:21:01.839 --> 00:21:05.799 the phone. Tom, thanks for holding Welcome to the program. 386 00:21:06.000 --> 00:21:14.279 Sounds like chips buying lunch today, I thought so. And 387 00:21:14.359 --> 00:21:16.799 I really appreciate Jay. I don't know if he gets 388 00:21:16.920 --> 00:21:19.720 enough kudos, but he always comes with a lot of information. 389 00:21:19.839 --> 00:21:23.759 He does, and I personally thank him very much for 390 00:21:24.440 --> 00:21:26.759 doing research and then getting on here and letting us 391 00:21:26.799 --> 00:21:28.599 all lett us all know about it. 392 00:21:28.640 --> 00:21:30.799 So yeah, he's a man. Absolutely. 393 00:21:31.160 --> 00:21:33.119 This is why I enjoy having the callers call up, 394 00:21:33.160 --> 00:21:35.079 because quite often you guys are armed with a hell 395 00:21:35.079 --> 00:21:37.000 of a lot more information than I am. I can't 396 00:21:37.039 --> 00:21:40.839 be responsible for knowing everything about everything out there. I 397 00:21:40.920 --> 00:21:42.960 don't and I never will claim that I do, which 398 00:21:43.000 --> 00:21:45.519 is again, I've got the best listening audience in radio 399 00:21:45.559 --> 00:21:49.319 because they're smart people out there, right. 400 00:21:49.960 --> 00:21:52.880 I agree with that. The reason I called is that 401 00:21:52.960 --> 00:21:55.720 I have We've all noticed this, I'm sure, but I 402 00:21:55.839 --> 00:21:59.240 wanted to highlight it again one of the main differences 403 00:21:59.319 --> 00:22:03.400 between the two parties. And believe me as we as 404 00:22:03.519 --> 00:22:06.480 we listen to Jay talk about stuff of the high 405 00:22:06.599 --> 00:22:10.720 Republican party, Republicans are no angels. They have their own 406 00:22:11.160 --> 00:22:14.160 whole whole bunch of problems that they need to we 407 00:22:14.480 --> 00:22:16.480 I mean, this whole thing would have a big pot 408 00:22:16.480 --> 00:22:19.119 of money for people to get their hands into. That's 409 00:22:19.279 --> 00:22:22.599 that's a problem for both sides, not just for one. Yeah, 410 00:22:23.359 --> 00:22:25.759 got to do something about it. But when we're having 411 00:22:25.799 --> 00:22:29.680 a discussion, when when it comes to the national discourse 412 00:22:29.759 --> 00:22:34.160 of issues, uh, it is it is very obvious that 413 00:22:34.240 --> 00:22:39.119 the Democrats don't have anything of substance to to say 414 00:22:39.519 --> 00:22:42.400 or to argue against any points or to prove any 415 00:22:42.400 --> 00:22:46.119 points that they have. All they have is is shouting 416 00:22:46.160 --> 00:22:50.359 and yelling and guilt tripping and in calling and and 417 00:22:50.400 --> 00:22:53.079 they got nothing. They can't argue against it. They just 418 00:22:53.119 --> 00:22:55.920 want to cancel you. And oh, you must you must 419 00:22:55.960 --> 00:22:58.920 hate people because you're not willing to let them do 420 00:22:58.960 --> 00:23:01.680 this or whatever, willing to let them have this. And 421 00:23:02.240 --> 00:23:03.920 you know that they get. 422 00:23:03.720 --> 00:23:08.440 Real upset when you start having a problem with but 423 00:23:08.759 --> 00:23:12.759 you know, people who are breaking laws and their criminals. Well, 424 00:23:13.200 --> 00:23:16.000 who are you here to defend? What's more important to 425 00:23:16.039 --> 00:23:20.039 you the actual law inviting American people or or people 426 00:23:20.039 --> 00:23:23.480 that are from this country or breaking the laws. It 427 00:23:23.880 --> 00:23:27.039 seems pretty obvious to me. And every time you pull 428 00:23:27.119 --> 00:23:29.039 up a story and you and you listen to stuff 429 00:23:29.039 --> 00:23:31.559 and you get comments from both sides, it's just clear 430 00:23:31.599 --> 00:23:35.640 as day that that you know the rightness. You know, 431 00:23:35.720 --> 00:23:38.680 we've got a lot of people are armed with information 432 00:23:39.119 --> 00:23:42.319 they got, we got facts and here's why your your 433 00:23:42.400 --> 00:23:45.680 idea is wrong. And I'm gonna tell voters that that 434 00:23:45.720 --> 00:23:49.079 have been voting Democrat, you're you're ignorant, you're being lied to, 435 00:23:49.559 --> 00:23:52.400 and that ignorance just you don't have information. We're trying 436 00:23:52.400 --> 00:23:55.920 to get you to understand something. And please listen to 437 00:23:55.960 --> 00:23:58.359 what what people are telling you. Listen to what Jay 438 00:23:58.440 --> 00:24:01.079 is saying, you know, and listen to the different callers 439 00:24:01.079 --> 00:24:05.079 and listen to listen to you with the information that 440 00:24:05.119 --> 00:24:08.079 we got the different guests you have. It's not about, 441 00:24:08.279 --> 00:24:11.119 you know, trying to shut you down and and and 442 00:24:11.200 --> 00:24:13.599 get you the cower in a corner and we're going to. 443 00:24:13.599 --> 00:24:16.880 Do something for you unless you shut up. It's about 444 00:24:16.880 --> 00:24:20.400 here's some information, Uh, and the biggest piece of information 445 00:24:20.480 --> 00:24:23.079 that I can give any of you is don't vote Democrat. 446 00:24:23.400 --> 00:24:24.039 Have a great day. 447 00:24:24.079 --> 00:24:26.880 Brat thanks Tom. Always wait till he's going to get 448 00:24:26.880 --> 00:24:29.279 to that conclusion. Yeah, you got to remember, if you 449 00:24:29.319 --> 00:24:33.440 don't embrace the tenants of Marxism, then they're going to 450 00:24:33.519 --> 00:24:36.599 yell and scream at you taking other people's money and 451 00:24:36.640 --> 00:24:39.480 giving it for giving it to anyone else. That's what 452 00:24:39.559 --> 00:24:43.559 their entire premise is based on. Wealth redistribution, and the 453 00:24:43.640 --> 00:24:47.240 criminal component of it is. Their argument is, well, it's 454 00:24:47.319 --> 00:24:53.200 just upholding and preserving an inherently corrupt system. This is 455 00:24:53.200 --> 00:24:56.359 why they want to undermine law enforcement. Oh, it's colonialism. 456 00:24:56.440 --> 00:24:58.839 This is law enforcement is merely a wing and arm 457 00:24:59.000 --> 00:25:02.559 of the colonial you white man's infrastructure or whatever. 458 00:25:02.680 --> 00:25:02.880 I mean. 459 00:25:02.920 --> 00:25:07.319 They speak in psychobabble, But in the final analysis, what 460 00:25:07.319 --> 00:25:09.759 they want to do is take all of your money, 461 00:25:09.799 --> 00:25:13.599 your labor, and then decide where it's going to go 462 00:25:13.880 --> 00:25:18.359 themselves in the name of I don't know, equity or 463 00:25:18.599 --> 00:25:22.759 helping those under privilege who've missed out on whatever. But 464 00:25:22.799 --> 00:25:28.119 that's what it's all about. That's their political philosophy, and 465 00:25:28.200 --> 00:25:34.000 they can't logically support it because it's failed epically wherever 466 00:25:34.200 --> 00:25:38.000 it's been tried. When you take away the incentive for 467 00:25:38.119 --> 00:25:41.400 hard work, which is moving up the ladder, keeping what 468 00:25:41.440 --> 00:25:45.200 you earned, providing you incentive to earn more, earn more, 469 00:25:45.319 --> 00:25:49.519 earn more, you're not earning more. Under their system of government. 470 00:25:49.599 --> 00:25:52.319 You are always going to be at the lowest rung 471 00:25:52.319 --> 00:25:54.480 of the ladder, along with every other human being, with 472 00:25:54.519 --> 00:25:59.839 the exception of those in the political class. It's indefensible. 473 00:26:00.559 --> 00:26:03.599 That's why you're met with violence and anger and dosing 474 00:26:03.720 --> 00:26:08.480 and screaming and yelling as opposed to a coherent logical argument. 475 00:26:09.000 --> 00:26:11.759 Because if they present it under Marxist theory, from each 476 00:26:11.759 --> 00:26:14.200 according his ability, each courting to his need, it begins 477 00:26:14.240 --> 00:26:16.680 to fall apart the minute you put it under some 478 00:26:16.960 --> 00:26:21.200 measure of analysis, historical analysis, or just logic and reason. 479 00:26:24.359 --> 00:26:25.319 Five thirty eight. 480 00:26:25.279 --> 00:26:27.759 Fifty five kr CD talk station stack a stupid coming 481 00:26:27.839 --> 00:26:31.359 up or phone calls which you know I love, But first, 482 00:26:31.559 --> 00:26:35.160 Zimmer Heating and air condition keeping area, come home, safe, 483 00:26:35.839 --> 00:26:39.440 efficient and comfortable for coming up on eighty years.

Welcome 509 00:27:50.599 --> 00:27:52.799 back to the fifty five KRC Morning Show, my submarine 510 00:27:52.839 --> 00:27:53.799 or friend cribbage Mike. 511 00:27:53.839 --> 00:27:55.799 Good to hear from you morning. 512 00:27:55.839 --> 00:27:58.599 Brian Thomas and I do have another updill battle as 513 00:27:58.640 --> 00:28:01.440 your number one. Cheerly will be in tow along with 514 00:28:01.480 --> 00:28:02.240 my lovely brides. 515 00:28:02.599 --> 00:28:07.799 Your grandson's coming today. Ah, that's awesome, It's a gift. 516 00:28:07.960 --> 00:28:10.279 I hate to interrupt the stack of stupid, but in 517 00:28:10.359 --> 00:28:14.279 my humble opinion, being working downtown Cincinnati, especially this early 518 00:28:14.319 --> 00:28:17.720 morning hour, that's not exactly what I think reelecting our 519 00:28:17.759 --> 00:28:21.039 current mayor would be. When there was such a wonderful 520 00:28:21.039 --> 00:28:24.559 interview yesterday, you know with Corey, and he reminds me 521 00:28:24.599 --> 00:28:27.359 so much of Adam Kaylor. They got ideas they want 522 00:28:27.359 --> 00:28:30.880 to implement these new ideas. He lives in the West End, 523 00:28:30.920 --> 00:28:33.599 he just had his fourth child, he runs a coffee shop. 524 00:28:33.680 --> 00:28:36.759 He's serving his community as a preacher. You know, so 525 00:28:36.960 --> 00:28:39.720 when you can can compare and contrast that whereas you 526 00:28:39.799 --> 00:28:43.319 got Aftam, who's a designer suit a two hundred dollars haircut, 527 00:28:43.319 --> 00:28:46.000 and a flashy smile. He is more suited for selling 528 00:28:46.079 --> 00:28:49.279 time shares in Orlando, Florida than being mayor of a 529 00:28:49.319 --> 00:28:52.880 metropolitan city. I had probably the best commanding officer I 530 00:28:53.119 --> 00:28:55.680 had was aboard my second submarine, and he had a 531 00:28:55.759 --> 00:28:58.599 quote in his state room from an Army four star general. 532 00:28:58.640 --> 00:29:01.440 You may have heard of him, General Joy Patent, and 533 00:29:01.480 --> 00:29:04.839 in bold letters it said, lead, follow, or get the 534 00:29:04.880 --> 00:29:07.079 hell out of the way. I wish af Tad would 535 00:29:07.079 --> 00:29:09.200 take the ladder because you just look within the last 536 00:29:09.240 --> 00:29:11.920 seven months where he has had a chance. He doesn't 537 00:29:11.960 --> 00:29:14.279 have a leadership bone in his body. First of the 538 00:29:14.359 --> 00:29:16.920 had the big backbridge fire and traffic was small for 539 00:29:16.960 --> 00:29:20.640 two months, where was he nowhere? Then you had Snowmageddin. 540 00:29:21.039 --> 00:29:22.799 You know, I'm not saying he should be out there 541 00:29:22.839 --> 00:29:25.960 driving a snowplow, but get the people who then fix 542 00:29:26.039 --> 00:29:28.160 the problem, or at least get on the air and 543 00:29:28.240 --> 00:29:30.480 talk to the people. And now we have the crime 544 00:29:30.559 --> 00:29:34.599 situation that's totally out of control. And in closing. About 545 00:29:34.599 --> 00:29:37.079 two weeks ago, I saw the fiftieth anniversary of The 546 00:29:37.160 --> 00:29:40.200 Moothly Jaws, and if you remember that famous scene when 547 00:29:40.240 --> 00:29:42.079 the mother loses a little boy who was on that 548 00:29:42.160 --> 00:29:45.680 yellow raft. Yeah, and she slaps Sheriff Brody in the face. Well, 549 00:29:45.720 --> 00:29:47.720 I think that mother of that fourteen year old up 550 00:29:47.720 --> 00:29:51.160 in Avondale could say the same thing. Mayor Pureval, you 551 00:29:51.279 --> 00:29:54.920 knew what was out there and you did nothing good point. 552 00:29:55.440 --> 00:29:57.680 I mean, honestly, Mike, and I was so shocked to 553 00:29:57.799 --> 00:30:01.000 read this morning the Bureau of Alcohol back on firearms, 554 00:30:01.039 --> 00:30:03.599 offering now cash rewards for information leading to the arrest 555 00:30:03.599 --> 00:30:07.759 of violent offenders in Cincinnati. How is it that we, 556 00:30:07.960 --> 00:30:10.359 the city of Cincinnati, landed on alcohol to back on 557 00:30:10.480 --> 00:30:14.000 firearms radar. I guess things have gotten pretty bad that 558 00:30:14.039 --> 00:30:17.319 they're now offering, you know, federal dollars for rewards. 559 00:30:17.920 --> 00:30:19.279 It's crazy, it's out of control. 560 00:30:19.640 --> 00:30:21.640 I mean, I could definitely see I think it was 561 00:30:21.680 --> 00:30:23.599 a caller or maybe you have mentioned it that we 562 00:30:23.720 --> 00:30:26.960 almost qualify to maybe have the Ohio National Guard here. 563 00:30:27.079 --> 00:30:28.880 I mean, it's not a riot stuff like that, But 564 00:30:28.920 --> 00:30:31.160 when every day you turn it on and those are 565 00:30:31.160 --> 00:30:33.559 the ones that are just getting reported, I would love 566 00:30:33.640 --> 00:30:37.880 to see what police chiefs Figi sees every morning. 567 00:30:37.599 --> 00:30:38.440 From shot spotter. 568 00:30:39.279 --> 00:30:41.720 Well, yeah, there's that, but then there's also this just 569 00:30:41.759 --> 00:30:45.680 the stark reality that all of the not all of 570 00:30:45.720 --> 00:30:48.759 the crime that the police department encounters is even put 571 00:30:48.839 --> 00:30:52.200 on some sort of data list or or or list 572 00:30:52.240 --> 00:30:56.759 of activity, because they just don't go through with arrests. 573 00:30:57.319 --> 00:30:59.799 I mean, it's a pointless gesture to arrest someone for 574 00:30:59.839 --> 00:31:02.160 a few violation or minor offense because they're just going 575 00:31:02.200 --> 00:31:04.279 to get let right out on the street. So don't 576 00:31:04.319 --> 00:31:07.039 bother going after it, don't bother reporting it, and that 577 00:31:07.160 --> 00:31:09.759 helps keep the crime statistics lower than they actually are, 578 00:31:09.799 --> 00:31:13.079 as high as they are anyway.

So go ahead and check and see if 741 00:39:57.639 --> 00:39:59.960 you're eligible for money out of the unclaimed fund beca 742 00:40:00.000 --> 00:40:03.280 because apparently the laws change, which according to the budget, 743 00:40:03.280 --> 00:40:05.800 they're allowed to take that money if you don't claim 744 00:40:05.840 --> 00:40:11.320 it within ten years. That the Dan Law firm says 745 00:40:11.519 --> 00:40:14.880 is well illegal, So they're challenging that. I hope they win. 746 00:40:16.039 --> 00:40:23.800 Brown's go find your own damn money period. Anyway, going 747 00:40:23.840 --> 00:40:27.679 back to the violence generally speaking and the sort of 748 00:40:27.679 --> 00:40:30.000 downward spy we feel like we're in in this country, 749 00:40:30.039 --> 00:40:32.599 We've got a lot of violence locally speaking. I've been 750 00:40:32.599 --> 00:40:34.639 talking about that with our with some folks of late 751 00:40:34.719 --> 00:40:39.559 Christopher Smithman and Corey Bowman most notably. But you got 752 00:40:39.599 --> 00:40:43.920 to remember the Marxists love when the state, whether it's 753 00:40:44.000 --> 00:40:47.599 local police department, you have the National Guard. Think of 754 00:40:47.679 --> 00:40:52.119 Kent's stay, for example, and the tragedy regarding those four 755 00:40:52.159 --> 00:40:56.239 people who were shot and gunned down for protesting not 756 00:40:56.360 --> 00:41:00.480 exactly a real great milestone in American history. You think 757 00:41:00.519 --> 00:41:06.679 of George Floyd, for example, using something like that as 758 00:41:06.719 --> 00:41:13.679 a vehicle to attack the institution. They love doing that. 759 00:41:14.360 --> 00:41:16.880 You want to identify and and and point to the 760 00:41:16.920 --> 00:41:20.159 state as the problem. They're the evil force. They're the 761 00:41:20.320 --> 00:41:23.480 jack booted thugs. They're the ones there that are oppressing us. 762 00:41:23.880 --> 00:41:26.519 They're the ones that use law enforcement as a means 763 00:41:26.559 --> 00:41:30.599 to uphold the white colonial estate or whatever Marxist blather 764 00:41:30.719 --> 00:41:34.320 they're They're there, their spu spewing out, but they want 765 00:41:34.320 --> 00:41:37.239 to undermine that law enforcement. Generally, it's one of the 766 00:41:37.239 --> 00:41:45.760 components of defund the police. And when they can't win elections, 767 00:41:46.719 --> 00:41:48.639 they're going to turn to violence. And that's something that 768 00:41:48.679 --> 00:41:50.719 Byron Yorke wrote about the other day. He's in an 769 00:41:50.760 --> 00:41:52.880 op ed piece on this, and he's not alone in 770 00:41:52.920 --> 00:41:56.639 his conclusions, but I wanted to point it out because 771 00:41:56.679 --> 00:41:58.360 you know, it's kind of a lustrative of a broader 772 00:41:58.400 --> 00:42:02.920 problem we're facing now. They can't when election Donald Trump 773 00:42:02.960 --> 00:42:07.199 got elected, over all of the I mean, in the 774 00:42:07.239 --> 00:42:11.440 face of the most outrageous onslaught that I am aware 775 00:42:11.480 --> 00:42:15.440 of in my lifetime against the politician, he still managed 776 00:42:15.440 --> 00:42:19.119 to overcome and win the popular vote. They were praying 777 00:42:19.159 --> 00:42:21.559 to God he wouldn't win the popular vote even if 778 00:42:21.599 --> 00:42:23.679 he won the electoral college. They were hoping to use 779 00:42:23.719 --> 00:42:25.639 that as a means to undermine the concept of the 780 00:42:25.679 --> 00:42:28.840 electoral college. Oh my god, you know, Kamala Harris won 781 00:42:28.920 --> 00:42:31.320 the popular won the majority of the vote, and yet 782 00:42:31.360 --> 00:42:33.800 Donald Trump got the electoral college. This is all wrong. 783 00:42:33.880 --> 00:42:38.280 Let's get rid of it. That didn't happen. What did 784 00:42:38.320 --> 00:42:41.400 Donald Trump campaign on all the things that he's delivering on, 785 00:42:41.519 --> 00:42:44.760 including shutting down the southern border and rounding up illegal 786 00:42:44.760 --> 00:42:47.400 immigrants and deporting them from our country. That is what 787 00:42:47.639 --> 00:42:50.519 is popular in our country, and it's blowing the minds 788 00:42:51.280 --> 00:42:54.079 of the leftists in this country, like, oh my god, 789 00:42:54.360 --> 00:42:56.400 our messaging didn't work. So what do you do? You 790 00:42:56.440 --> 00:43:00.480 turn to violence? Is New York Rights and I will read. 791 00:43:00.519 --> 00:43:02.719 We know many Democrats were stunned when Donald Trump wanted 792 00:43:02.719 --> 00:43:04.960 a second term as president. We know many are still 793 00:43:05.000 --> 00:43:07.679 angry about it, but we're just now learning how angry 794 00:43:07.760 --> 00:43:11.159 some of them are. It's not just grand standing Democratic 795 00:43:11.239 --> 00:43:16.079 lawmakers like Representative Jasmine Crockett of Texas. Axios reports that 796 00:43:16.199 --> 00:43:19.400 quote all at town halls in their districts and in 797 00:43:19.480 --> 00:43:23.119 one on one meetings with constituents and activist close quote 798 00:43:23.320 --> 00:43:26.639 Crockett's more than moderate Democrat House colleagues are, in their words, 799 00:43:26.679 --> 00:43:31.719 facing a growing drum of demands to break the rules, 800 00:43:32.199 --> 00:43:34.119 fight dirty, and not be. 801 00:43:34.159 --> 00:43:35.239 Afraid to get hurt. 802 00:43:36.079 --> 00:43:38.920 According to one Democratic law a lawmaker quoted in Axios, 803 00:43:38.960 --> 00:43:41.079 our own base is telling us that what we're doing 804 00:43:41.199 --> 00:43:44.000 is not good enough. Some of them have suggested what 805 00:43:44.039 --> 00:43:46.320 we really need to do is be willing to get 806 00:43:46.360 --> 00:43:50.599 shot in protests that US Immigration and Customs enforcement with 807 00:43:50.639 --> 00:43:54.599 facilities again another element of law enforcement ice agents doing 808 00:43:54.639 --> 00:43:59.840 their job and enforcing the laws on the books. Continuing 809 00:43:59.880 --> 00:44:02.800 the quote that there needs to be blood to grab 810 00:44:02.840 --> 00:44:06.960 the attention to the press in public. Another lawmaker told 811 00:44:07.000 --> 00:44:10.880 actually his constituentsy civility isn't working, and to get ready 812 00:44:10.920 --> 00:44:16.440 for violence to fight to protect our democracy. Another said quote, 813 00:44:16.440 --> 00:44:20.039 it's like the Roman colisseum. People just want more and 814 00:44:20.119 --> 00:44:25.000 more of this spectacle. Obviously, these are Democrats who've moved 815 00:44:25.000 --> 00:44:27.639 beyond the defeat them at the ballot box stage of politics, 816 00:44:27.639 --> 00:44:31.400 and even beyond the protests by civil disobedient stage. They're 817 00:44:31.440 --> 00:44:34.039 ready to turn a political fight into a physical fight. 818 00:44:35.199 --> 00:44:38.400 Violence is already going on in Alvarado, Texas. A militant 819 00:44:38.400 --> 00:44:42.760 group broadly allied with Democratic views launch what officials call 820 00:44:42.840 --> 00:44:46.880 a coordinated attack on the ICE Prairie Land Attention Center 821 00:44:46.880 --> 00:44:48.960 on the fourth of July. According to court document, started 822 00:44:48.960 --> 00:44:51.639 about ten thirty in the evening, when a group of 823 00:44:51.679 --> 00:44:56.320 ten to twelve Antifa radicals dressed all in black bean 824 00:44:56.400 --> 00:44:59.719 shooting fireworks towards the building. Some began to vandalize park 825 00:44:59.760 --> 00:45:03.119 car with while unarmed ICE workers called nine one one 826 00:45:03.119 --> 00:45:08.119 and Alvarado Police Department officer arrived. According to the court document, 827 00:45:08.199 --> 00:45:11.320 immediately after the APD officer got out of his vehicle, 828 00:45:11.360 --> 00:45:14.920 an assailant in the woods opened fire, shooting the officer 829 00:45:15.039 --> 00:45:19.119 in the neck area. Another gunman also opened fire at 830 00:45:19.119 --> 00:45:23.719 the unarmed Department of Homeland Security correctional officers. In total, 831 00:45:23.760 --> 00:45:26.559 the assailants shot approximately twenty to thirty rounds at the 832 00:45:26.599 --> 00:45:30.559 correctional officers. Police later found two AR fifteen style rifles 833 00:45:30.559 --> 00:45:33.440 and spent casings in the nearby woods, and when the 834 00:45:33.519 --> 00:45:36.280 radicals ran away, police rounded them up, some still in 835 00:45:36.320 --> 00:45:38.960 the woods, some escaping down a nearby road, including seven 836 00:45:39.000 --> 00:45:42.559 suspects who were dressed in black military style clothing. Some 837 00:45:42.639 --> 00:45:45.440 had on body armor armors, some were covered in mud, 838 00:45:45.559 --> 00:45:49.320 some were armed, some had radios that all in the 839 00:45:49.320 --> 00:45:52.599 court documents. The officer who was shot in the next survived, 840 00:45:52.599 --> 00:45:56.559 thanked God. Now ten suspects have been charged with attempted murder. 841 00:45:58.239 --> 00:46:02.440 This is the radical, violent tip of the protests against 842 00:46:02.440 --> 00:46:07.159 Trump administration's enforcement of immigration law. Other examples of recent 843 00:46:07.280 --> 00:46:12.639 radicalization of the far left Free Palestine extremists Elias Rodriguez 844 00:46:13.079 --> 00:46:15.880 accused of murdering two Israeli embassy staff members outside the 845 00:46:15.960 --> 00:46:20.079 Jewish National Museum of Washington, May twenty first. Luigi Mangioni, 846 00:46:20.280 --> 00:46:24.280 killer of the United Healthcare CEO Brian Thompson. That was 847 00:46:24.320 --> 00:46:26.639 December of last year, if you can remember, it's been 848 00:46:26.679 --> 00:46:30.519 that long. Despite the brutality of his crime, Mangoni found 849 00:46:30.559 --> 00:46:33.199 himself celebrated in some parts of the left, his crime 850 00:46:33.480 --> 00:46:39.880 minimalized or excused for what some apparently consider a bold 851 00:46:39.960 --> 00:46:44.840 action against oppress the oppressive health care system. Beyond that, 852 00:46:44.920 --> 00:46:47.760 of course, they've already been riots in Los Angeles and 853 00:46:47.800 --> 00:46:51.719 other protests, some with the participation of Democratic lawmakers or 854 00:46:51.760 --> 00:46:56.199 Democratic support groups like labor unions, that involve varying degrees 855 00:46:56.559 --> 00:46:59.960 of disorderliness. Finally, Who's been an alarming plunge in the 856 00:47:00.119 --> 00:47:02.119 number of Democrats who say they are proud to be 857 00:47:02.159 --> 00:47:06.679 an American. Back in twenty fifteen, Obama was president, eighty 858 00:47:06.760 --> 00:47:09.239 percent of Democrats say they were extremely or very proud 859 00:47:09.239 --> 00:47:11.639 to be an American. This according to Gallup Survey. Today, 860 00:47:11.679 --> 00:47:13.920 the same survey show as Donald Trump in the White House, 861 00:47:14.199 --> 00:47:19.280 that number is now thirty six percent, accurd to CNN 862 00:47:19.320 --> 00:47:22.079 data analysts Harry and Topping on the Top, speaking on 863 00:47:22.079 --> 00:47:24.599 the topic Democrats, the percentage who say they're proud to 864 00:47:24.639 --> 00:47:29.800 be an American has fallen through the floor. He also 865 00:47:29.840 --> 00:47:32.960 observed the Democratic numbers are entirely different from Republican numbers. 866 00:47:32.960 --> 00:47:36.320 In twenty fifteen, Obama was president, ninety percent of Republicans 867 00:47:36.360 --> 00:47:38.639 say they were extremely or very proud to be an American. Today, 868 00:47:38.679 --> 00:47:45.519 with Trump, the numbers ninety two, virtually unchanged. Byron York says, 869 00:47:45.559 --> 00:47:48.400 take it all together, the situation is this, some Democrats 870 00:47:48.400 --> 00:47:52.280 are calling on the elected representatives to engage in violence 871 00:47:52.280 --> 00:47:54.960 against the policies of President Trump. And I would interject, 872 00:47:55.039 --> 00:47:59.880 I think it's more than that that far left wing 873 00:48:00.079 --> 00:48:04.639 the party wants to engage in violence against this system 874 00:48:04.920 --> 00:48:12.719 of government. Look at the practically mayor in New York City. 875 00:48:12.920 --> 00:48:15.400 They've all got him having wined that mom dommi guy, 876 00:48:15.480 --> 00:48:21.440 he's a blank and communist. Well three distribution. We're going 877 00:48:21.519 --> 00:48:24.039 to tax all the rich into submission. We're gonna give 878 00:48:24.039 --> 00:48:29.159 it away. How long is that gonna work, mister Mandami? Anyway? 879 00:48:30.039 --> 00:48:32.000 Going back to Byron. At the same time, groups that 880 00:48:32.119 --> 00:48:34.800 might be characterized as militant allies of the progressive of 881 00:48:34.800 --> 00:48:37.360 democratic movement are resorting to violence in an effort to 882 00:48:37.400 --> 00:48:42.079 obstruct the president's enforcement of federal immigration law. Its laws 883 00:48:42.079 --> 00:48:46.719 on the books, folks, Some radicals have committed politically motivated murder, 884 00:48:46.760 --> 00:48:49.599 for which they receive support in some far left circles. 885 00:48:49.639 --> 00:48:52.119 And it's all happening in the context of one of 886 00:48:52.280 --> 00:48:56.840 two major political parties experiencing a sharp drop and the 887 00:48:56.880 --> 00:49:02.800 most basic measure of civic devotion pride in being American, 888 00:49:04.480 --> 00:49:08.960 and in a two party system. The sharp drop is 889 00:49:08.960 --> 00:49:13.079 on the Democratic side of the Ledger the troubling picture. 890 00:49:14.559 --> 00:49:17.719 Nothing on the immediate horizon suggests it will improve anytime soon. 891 00:49:17.800 --> 00:49:23.039 Thank you byron Yorke for the opinion. Bobby's on the line. 892 00:49:23.079 --> 00:49:25.239 Your phone calls are quite welcome. Five one, three, seven, four, nine, 893 00:49:25.280 --> 00:49:27.400 fifty five hundred, eight hundred and eight to two three 894 00:49:27.599 --> 00:49:30.239 Talk and get in touch with QC Connects. I'll give 895 00:49:30.239 --> 00:49:33.159 you the number here three times in just a second. 896 00:49:33.199 --> 00:49:36.719 If you're experiencing arthritic pain, neck pain, knee pain, hit pain, 897 00:49:37.400 --> 00:49:39.480 you've been to the doctor, You've gotten all the steroid 898 00:49:39.519 --> 00:49:42.400 shots and multiple rounds of them. Maybe, if you're dealing 899 00:49:42.400 --> 00:49:46.440 with that much pain, maybe you've had a conversation about surgery. Now, 900 00:49:46.480 --> 00:49:48.480 before you do that, why not get in touch with 901 00:49:48.480 --> 00:49:51.239 the folks at QC Kinetics because they offer a free consultation. 902 00:49:51.840 --> 00:49:54.800 This is not me, it's not meds, it's not going 903 00:49:54.840 --> 00:50:00.480 under the ninth. It's regenerative medicine using treatments like advanced 904 00:50:00.480 --> 00:50:04.639 cellular therapy and platerit platelet rich plasma which help your 905 00:50:04.639 --> 00:50:07.440 body heel itself, not masking the pain. This apparently goes 906 00:50:07.519 --> 00:50:09.599 right to the root of the problem. Cellular treatments with 907 00:50:09.679 --> 00:50:12.960 growth factors and healing properties that maximize your own body's 908 00:50:13.000 --> 00:50:16.519 ability to heal itself. In a wild success rate, ninety 909 00:50:16.519 --> 00:50:19.400 two percent of their patients reports satisfaction with the results. 910 00:50:20.159 --> 00:50:22.280 So it's working apparently for folks that are dealing with 911 00:50:22.320 --> 00:50:24.559 pain just like you. So why not find out if 912 00:50:24.599 --> 00:50:26.800 the treatment is the right avenue to go to go 913 00:50:26.880 --> 00:50:28.920 down by taking them up on their offer of a 914 00:50:28.960 --> 00:50:32.719 free consultation free five one three eight four seven zero 915 00:50:32.880 --> 00:50:35.280 zero one nine five one three eight four seven zero 916 00:50:35.440 --> 00:50:38.360 zero one nine. That's five one three eight four seven zero. 917 00:50:38.360 --> 00:50:39.159 Zero one nine. 918 00:50:39.280 --> 00:50:43.559 This is fifty five KARC an iHeartRadio station at Color 919 00:50:43.639 --> 00:50:44.760 Young Funeral, Healthy. 920 00:50:44.559 --> 00:50:47.199 Happy one to you. I'm going to go over to 921 00:50:47.239 --> 00:50:49.079 the phones. Remember thinking about KC dot com. You try 922 00:50:49.119 --> 00:50:52.639 Heart Media absolutely can stream all of the iHeartMedia content 923 00:50:52.639 --> 00:50:54.079 and there is a ton of it, more than you 924 00:50:54.079 --> 00:50:57.480 can probably ever imagine. But also the podcast for Daniel 925 00:50:57.519 --> 00:50:59.760 Davis Deep Die the inside scoop of Bright Barton News 926 00:50:59.760 --> 00:51:02.360 and Cory Bowman for Mayor. He talked about violence in 927 00:51:02.400 --> 00:51:06.480 downtown Cincinnati, an ongoing problem we're facing right now. And 928 00:51:06.719 --> 00:51:09.639 of course maybe he is a refreshing alternative to a 929 00:51:09.719 --> 00:51:11.960 mayor who doesn't really seem to care or acknowledge it. 930 00:51:12.199 --> 00:51:14.320 Let's gore to the phones. Who what Bobby's got this morning? Bobby, 931 00:51:14.320 --> 00:51:16.519 welcome in the morning, showing a happy Wednesday, you sir. 932 00:51:17.719 --> 00:51:19.280 Happy hump Day, my brother. 933 00:51:19.519 --> 00:51:21.599 I tell you what, you got a true patriot on 934 00:51:21.639 --> 00:51:23.239 the line with you this morning. 935 00:51:23.360 --> 00:51:25.440 Oh I know you are, Bobby, without question. 936 00:51:26.920 --> 00:51:28.840 Well, I tell you what. There was an awful good 937 00:51:28.880 --> 00:51:31.679 cabinet meeting yesterday with the Trump's true the only thing 938 00:51:31.840 --> 00:51:33.880 is here they need to get a short layer of 939 00:51:34.000 --> 00:51:38.079 dunk button on that at one fifteen yesterday during his 940 00:51:38.119 --> 00:51:41.639 cabinet meeting, but said the same thing I did a 941 00:51:41.639 --> 00:51:43.119 week ago accidentally. 942 00:51:43.280 --> 00:51:45.639 Yeah, well, those words do tend to pop up. 943 00:51:46.960 --> 00:51:47.599 Hey, I do. 944 00:51:48.159 --> 00:51:51.719 Hey, I got a question. How's the shooting rate going 945 00:51:51.760 --> 00:51:54.840 on down in Cincinnati? I know someday we had a 946 00:51:54.960 --> 00:51:58.599 street takeover in Clifton, and you know what I'm saying, 947 00:51:59.239 --> 00:52:01.559 people don't want to talk about the problems. We had 948 00:52:01.559 --> 00:52:04.960 a shooting in Walnut Hills last night. I guess that's 949 00:52:05.000 --> 00:52:08.039 why Cincinnati holds the top five and the most violent 950 00:52:08.079 --> 00:52:09.159 city's per capitinal. 951 00:52:09.440 --> 00:52:11.639 Yeah, in the nation. Yeah, maybe that's why the alcohols 952 00:52:11.719 --> 00:52:15.519 back on. Firearm Bureau is now offering rewards for tips 953 00:52:15.559 --> 00:52:19.480 to lead to prosecution and gun related crimes twenty five 954 00:52:19.559 --> 00:52:22.599 hundred dollars rewards. I mean, how do we get on 955 00:52:22.639 --> 00:52:24.719 their radar, Bobby. Apparently it's because of what you just 956 00:52:24.760 --> 00:52:26.719 pointed out. We got a very violent city. It only 957 00:52:26.719 --> 00:52:27.679 seems to be getting worse. 958 00:52:28.800 --> 00:52:31.039 It's in the top five of the nation. My friend, 959 00:52:31.159 --> 00:52:34.480 and our people down there in the city hall, they 960 00:52:34.480 --> 00:52:36.920 don't want to do anything about it. You know, support 961 00:52:37.000 --> 00:52:39.280 your police. You can't get enough of them. They all 962 00:52:39.320 --> 00:52:41.840 need to be on the street to curtail these problems. 963 00:52:42.039 --> 00:52:44.360 And until you go ahead and respect the police and 964 00:52:44.440 --> 00:52:46.599 you put the numbers up there where they need to be, 965 00:52:47.119 --> 00:52:48.480 it's not gonna get you better. 966 00:52:48.880 --> 00:52:50.840 Well and again, I keep going back to the fact 967 00:52:50.880 --> 00:52:52.960 that's what the leftists want. They don't want it to 968 00:52:53.079 --> 00:52:56.440 get better. They want chaos, they want violence, they want anger, 969 00:52:56.519 --> 00:52:59.199 they want to like it's like the Bolshevik Revolution. You know, 970 00:53:00.000 --> 00:53:01.880 they get enough people out there they want to overthrow 971 00:53:01.920 --> 00:53:04.679 the government. And I know that sounds crazy, conspiratorial, but 972 00:53:04.760 --> 00:53:08.280 this is the playbook that they work off of. Undermine 973 00:53:08.440 --> 00:53:12.639 the authority, undermine the government, undermine every component of it. 974 00:53:12.679 --> 00:53:14.679 We have an evil and listen It's part of the 975 00:53:14.760 --> 00:53:17.559 education system, now, isn't it. Bobby, talk about how evil 976 00:53:17.639 --> 00:53:20.639 the United States is, how we're born of original sin 977 00:53:20.760 --> 00:53:24.199 and we're irredeemable and we're nothing but bad, and you know, 978 00:53:24.400 --> 00:53:27.360 war wagers, and they forget and they overlook everything that 979 00:53:27.400 --> 00:53:29.360 the United States has been able to do based upon 980 00:53:29.400 --> 00:53:32.920 its absolute outright success over two hundred and forty nine years. 981 00:53:33.320 --> 00:53:36.840 Ignore all that. I mean, this is the goal they want. 982 00:53:36.840 --> 00:53:40.000 They want socialism, they want wealth redistribution, they want the 983 00:53:40.199 --> 00:53:44.920 end of anything remotely related to capitalism, which is the 984 00:53:45.239 --> 00:53:48.679 obviously most demonstrably successful form of government. 985 00:53:50.159 --> 00:53:50.519 Welcome. 986 00:53:50.719 --> 00:53:54.159 I had a two and a half percent chance to 987 00:53:54.239 --> 00:53:56.599 be born in this country. I was born a winner 988 00:53:56.960 --> 00:54:00.599 amen first date yeap period that most people don't realize 989 00:54:00.599 --> 00:54:03.440 what they have here. Give them five thousand dollars and 990 00:54:03.480 --> 00:54:05.559 I can give them seven other places to go in 991 00:54:05.599 --> 00:54:07.840 this world and see if they come back. 992 00:54:09.000 --> 00:54:12.239 I agree with you completely, Bobby. We don't appreciate the 993 00:54:12.239 --> 00:54:16.119 blessings of living in America. How is it that so 994 00:54:16.199 --> 00:54:18.800 many people from outside this country want to come here? 995 00:54:19.239 --> 00:54:20.480 Right? Is it? 996 00:54:20.559 --> 00:54:24.360 The overwhelming flood of illegal immigrants across our border during 997 00:54:24.400 --> 00:54:27.079 the Biden administration illustrative of the fact that we live 998 00:54:27.239 --> 00:54:29.400 in the best country and they all want to slice 999 00:54:29.400 --> 00:54:33.039 of that action. Yeah, you pull globally and we would 1000 00:54:33.079 --> 00:54:35.519 have what like a billion people coming to the United 1001 00:54:35.559 --> 00:54:37.599 States of America if everybody wanted to come here got 1002 00:54:37.639 --> 00:54:40.320 their way. Why, Because we live in a free country 1003 00:54:40.320 --> 00:54:44.320 at least well as our freedoms gradually erode, most people 1004 00:54:44.360 --> 00:54:48.239 are clamoring for that. Just an opportunity which you don't 1005 00:54:48.280 --> 00:54:50.760 get in other forms of government. Good to hear from you, Bobby, 1006 00:54:50.760 --> 00:54:53.679 have a great day.

Yeah, 1058 00:57:36.400 --> 00:57:39.639 it is already Wednesday, but at least it was reported 1059 00:57:39.719 --> 00:57:44.119 yesterday guess what happened over the weekend. More violence a 1060 00:57:44.320 --> 00:57:47.400 street takeover is what is described as happened on Ludlow 1061 00:57:47.440 --> 00:57:51.800 Avenue and Clifton residents and business owners are really upset 1062 00:57:51.840 --> 00:57:53.880 about the whole situation. Apparently this has been going on 1063 00:57:53.920 --> 00:57:56.000 for a while. Thanks to Brett Buganski over a Channel 1064 00:57:56.079 --> 00:58:01.559 nine Fox WCPO for reporting on this. They obtained reports 1065 00:58:01.599 --> 00:58:04.400 that up to eighty people crowd of the street block 1066 00:58:04.440 --> 00:58:08.000 Traffee were partying about three between three p forty and 1067 00:58:08.119 --> 00:58:14.599 four am. Happened last Sunday. courtA dispatcher push the crowd back. 1068 00:58:14.760 --> 00:58:17.519 Fire is having trouble getting out of the firehouse. They 1069 00:58:17.519 --> 00:58:21.159 were blocking the fire department from going on a run. 1070 00:58:22.280 --> 00:58:24.599 Described so many people in the street. The fire truck 1071 00:58:24.880 --> 00:58:26.760 said it. They said it couldn't get out of the 1072 00:58:26.800 --> 00:58:31.280 firehouse on Ludlow Avenue. There's surveillance video that WCPO obtained 1073 00:58:31.320 --> 00:58:34.480 showing police officers trying to break up the crowd. Officers 1074 00:58:34.559 --> 00:58:37.480 chasing at least one person and catching up to him 1075 00:58:38.000 --> 00:58:41.000 over the scanners. Officers reported that they had used a 1076 00:58:41.079 --> 00:58:44.119 taser to control the crowd and deployed pepper spray or 1077 00:58:44.159 --> 00:58:47.719 pepper balls corner to Steve Gooden, who's joined the program. 1078 00:58:47.719 --> 00:58:51.360 He's our resident legal expert. He's also a former City 1079 00:58:51.400 --> 00:58:55.079 council member and member of the Clifton Community Council. He 1080 00:58:55.159 --> 00:58:57.559 said when they first when the first few officers arrived, 1081 00:58:57.559 --> 00:59:01.239 they were scared. They called for back and backup was 1082 00:59:01.440 --> 00:59:09.880 slow to arrive. I wonder why that might be good 1083 00:59:09.920 --> 00:59:11.599 and said what you're seeing in the surveillance videos and 1084 00:59:11.679 --> 00:59:14.679 hearing over the scanners was brought up during their Community 1085 00:59:14.679 --> 00:59:18.639 Council meeting Monday this week, some residents and businesses voicing 1086 00:59:18.679 --> 00:59:22.440 concerns about the safety and their livelihood, which has reportedly 1087 00:59:22.440 --> 00:59:27.079 being an beginning sorry being been an ongoing problem for 1088 00:59:27.119 --> 00:59:30.000 a couple of years. Can't give my mouth to work 1089 00:59:30.000 --> 00:59:36.440 this morning, I'm sorry now. Apparently part of the problem 1090 00:59:36.480 --> 00:59:42.199 maybe the Bohemian hookah cafe which is open every day 1091 00:59:42.199 --> 00:59:45.199 from four pm to four am. They don't have a 1092 00:59:45.280 --> 00:59:47.719 liquor license. And how is it that you can smoke 1093 00:59:47.760 --> 00:59:49.960 in a hookah bar but you can't smoke anyplace else? 1094 00:59:50.000 --> 00:59:50.880 He asked. 1095 00:59:51.719 --> 00:59:55.400 Anyway business owners, the WCPOS book was said all the 1096 00:59:55.440 --> 00:59:59.000 trouble happens after the bars closed at two am. People 1097 00:59:59.079 --> 01:00:02.599 selling alcohol out of their cars fighting on the sidewalks 1098 01:00:02.599 --> 01:00:05.320 in the middle of the street. Surveillance video is showing 1099 01:00:05.360 --> 01:00:08.360 some appear to be intimidating people by showing a gun 1100 01:00:08.440 --> 01:00:12.920 in their Wasteman business owners blaming the hookah lowns for 1101 01:00:13.119 --> 01:00:16.360 enabling this. Although you can't necessarily blame the hookah bar. 1102 01:00:16.519 --> 01:00:19.360 It's open, it's a legal business. It's the people in it. 1103 01:00:21.760 --> 01:00:24.480 CPO called the landlord of the Hookah Lounges, who said 1104 01:00:24.519 --> 01:00:26.800 over the phone that she was trying to evict the 1105 01:00:26.840 --> 01:00:31.599 business because of the repeated complaints of disorderly conduct, besides 1106 01:00:31.599 --> 01:00:34.039 the city dedicating more officers to Clifton on the weekends 1107 01:00:34.039 --> 01:00:37.639 when bars close. CPO asked, good and what they want 1108 01:00:37.719 --> 01:00:40.199 from the city quote, I would love for the city 1109 01:00:40.239 --> 01:00:42.880 to file a public nuisance lawsuit to shut down the 1110 01:00:42.920 --> 01:00:48.519 hookah bar. Well, there's a possible solution, right if your 1111 01:00:48.559 --> 01:00:51.480 business has been identified as a public nuisance, the police 1112 01:00:51.519 --> 01:00:53.519 can shut it down and they can go after it. 1113 01:00:56.639 --> 01:00:56.960 I don't know. 1114 01:00:57.079 --> 01:00:59.400 CPO reached out to aftab pro ball remembers of the 1115 01:00:59.400 --> 01:01:02.320 city council to talk about this not reported that way. 1116 01:01:03.599 --> 01:01:05.599 They said they did reach out to city officials for 1117 01:01:05.679 --> 01:01:07.760 comment on the Hookah business and whether they plan to 1118 01:01:07.800 --> 01:01:10.239 label a nuisance. And they're continuing to press for answers 1119 01:01:10.239 --> 01:01:13.039 about what steps will be taken to address the Clifton 1120 01:01:13.119 --> 01:01:18.079 area residents concerns and about safety, and they will be 1121 01:01:18.159 --> 01:01:19.920 keeping track of it. At least we've got some local 1122 01:01:19.960 --> 01:01:26.000 news outlets reporting on this frightening stuff.

I 1150 01:02:44.519 --> 01:02:46.280 work three days a week, but this is one of 1151 01:02:46.320 --> 01:02:49.639 the days off, and I'm sitting on my deck. The 1152 01:02:49.719 --> 01:02:54.199 fountains are going, got banana plants around me, a lemon tree. 1153 01:02:54.239 --> 01:02:57.320 I mean, it's it's my home, sitting under the wisteria 1154 01:02:57.599 --> 01:02:59.960 on the arbor that I built. So it's it's life 1155 01:03:00.119 --> 01:03:00.639 is pretty good. 1156 01:03:00.840 --> 01:03:02.119 It sounds beautiful, man. 1157 01:03:03.639 --> 01:03:05.320 And then we top it off. I got you on 1158 01:03:05.360 --> 01:03:07.599 the radio, so what what you know? What else could 1159 01:03:07.639 --> 01:03:11.159 you get? But uh, this will be my third listener lunch. 1160 01:03:11.559 --> 01:03:13.880 First one I went to by myself made a lot 1161 01:03:13.920 --> 01:03:17.639 of friends. Everybody is really kind and and it's just 1162 01:03:17.679 --> 01:03:21.280 a it's a nice atmosphere. Took my lovely wife and 1163 01:03:21.320 --> 01:03:26.519 some friends from church a few months ago, and so 1164 01:03:26.559 --> 01:03:29.920 it'll be me and my better half today. The only 1165 01:03:29.960 --> 01:03:32.800 thing I you know, I stopped trying to figure out 1166 01:03:32.800 --> 01:03:37.519 women a long time ago. But I mean, but when 1167 01:03:37.559 --> 01:03:40.400 my lovely wife met you, and you you came to 1168 01:03:40.440 --> 01:03:43.519 our table and talked and walked away, and she just said, 1169 01:03:43.599 --> 01:03:46.199 the voice doesn't match the face. And I don't know 1170 01:03:46.239 --> 01:03:49.159 if that's good, Matt. I have no idea what that means, 1171 01:03:49.840 --> 01:03:52.519 but take it as a compliment. Maybe maybe you know, 1172 01:03:52.639 --> 01:03:53.400 I don't know. 1173 01:03:53.320 --> 01:03:53.480 But. 1174 01:03:55.639 --> 01:03:57.079 No, no, I don't you know. 1175 01:03:57.119 --> 01:03:59.159 I mean, I but you know, I guess when you've 1176 01:03:59.199 --> 01:04:01.639 not seen the person. Now, I had been to the 1177 01:04:01.679 --> 01:04:04.000 website many times, so I kind of knew what you 1178 01:04:04.119 --> 01:04:08.840 look like, so but I don't know what that means. 1179 01:04:09.000 --> 01:04:09.119 Now. 1180 01:04:09.159 --> 01:04:13.360 I know you've got Jay Ratliff on every Thursday, And 1181 01:04:13.440 --> 01:04:15.079 I mean, you don't mind that I'd get away from 1182 01:04:15.079 --> 01:04:17.679 the killing and the city and everything for a minute. 1183 01:04:17.480 --> 01:04:18.800 Or two or do you no? 1184 01:04:18.800 --> 01:04:19.079 Not of it? 1185 01:04:19.760 --> 01:04:22.719 Okay? And I'm kind of hoping to hear about the 1186 01:04:22.760 --> 01:04:25.920 Air India flight because I was in India in April. 1187 01:04:26.159 --> 01:04:29.840 It's an amazing country. The people are just the friendliest 1188 01:04:29.840 --> 01:04:33.840 people in the world. And that that happened, you know, 1189 01:04:33.960 --> 01:04:36.920 some few weeks after I got back, and it kind 1190 01:04:36.920 --> 01:04:38.960 of hit me hard because I actually I was on 1191 01:04:39.119 --> 01:04:44.079 Air India on one of my flights and they're just 1192 01:04:44.119 --> 01:04:46.440 an amazing people. So I'm hoping we'd get to hear 1193 01:04:46.599 --> 01:04:50.039 something about I don't think he's followed up yet on that. 1194 01:04:50.239 --> 01:04:50.920 He's kind of. 1195 01:04:51.039 --> 01:04:54.000 Well, maybe because there's nothing, not enough information to follow 1196 01:04:54.079 --> 01:04:57.400 up on, because these investigations do take a long long 1197 01:04:57.480 --> 01:05:00.679 time there, you do very thorough investigations. It maybe I 1198 01:05:00.679 --> 01:05:02.920 haven't gotten a list of topics. He provides Joe and 1199 01:05:02.960 --> 01:05:04.639 me with the topics he wants to talk about, and 1200 01:05:04.639 --> 01:05:07.320 occasionally I'll steer him in a different direction. He doesn't 1201 01:05:07.320 --> 01:05:08.880 mind that at all, So maybe I'll bring it up 1202 01:05:08.880 --> 01:05:10.239 if it's not on his topic list. 1203 01:05:10.239 --> 01:05:14.199 But if you don't mind, again, I know, I could 1204 01:05:14.199 --> 01:05:16.480 do an internet search and look for it, but I'd 1205 01:05:16.599 --> 01:05:19.480 rather be spoon fed like a baby. So I like 1206 01:05:19.599 --> 01:05:21.880 him to tell me what's going on. But I'll look 1207 01:05:21.920 --> 01:05:28.880 forward to seeing you at lunchtime. Well, I'm I'm in Independence, 1208 01:05:28.920 --> 01:05:32.079 and we actually go to Jungle Gym's in Eastgate probably 1209 01:05:32.079 --> 01:05:34.960 about every three weeks, so we're gonna take advantage of 1210 01:05:35.639 --> 01:05:38.679 bribing all the way out there, and once we're leaving, 1211 01:05:38.800 --> 01:05:41.719 we'll we'll go one more exit and we'll hit Jungle 1212 01:05:41.800 --> 01:05:45.760 Gyms and we'll come back home after that. So yeah, 1213 01:05:45.800 --> 01:05:48.760 thanks for everything you do, and and Joe really keeps 1214 01:05:48.800 --> 01:05:52.840 the show going. I love the sound effects and all 1215 01:05:52.840 --> 01:05:56.320 that stuff and little phrasings he hits and it really 1216 01:05:56.320 --> 01:05:56.960 makes the chef. 1217 01:05:57.280 --> 01:05:58.199 Thank you very much. 1218 01:05:58.239 --> 01:06:01.119 I share your eur opinion about Jos Trekker and the 1219 01:06:01.159 --> 01:06:03.239 sound bite, Steve, and I am very much looking forward 1220 01:06:03.239 --> 01:06:05.159 to seeing you in your better half at lunch today 1221 01:06:05.519 --> 01:06:08.119 wandering Monsters Brewery on Beachmunt Avenue. In case you haven't 1222 01:06:08.119 --> 01:06:10.920 gotten the word, you too are invited and talking about 1223 01:06:11.199 --> 01:06:15.039 I going back to violence generally speaking. And you know 1224 01:06:15.079 --> 01:06:17.519 that while we've been complaining of late here in the 1225 01:06:17.519 --> 01:06:19.559 morning show with my guests and all that, the city 1226 01:06:19.599 --> 01:06:22.199 Council doesn't say anything about the violence we obviously have 1227 01:06:22.280 --> 01:06:24.519 a plague with here in the city. Mayor keeps his 1228 01:06:24.559 --> 01:06:26.920 mouth shut. Of course, they're on summer break, so why 1229 01:06:26.960 --> 01:06:29.559 would we hear from them, Oh, oh, it's not their 1230 01:06:29.639 --> 01:06:33.559 job while they're on break. But more and more elected officials, 1231 01:06:33.599 --> 01:06:43.719 and notably all of the blue cities are encouraging violence. 1232 01:06:45.639 --> 01:06:47.519 And now it may be on the fringe. Now, oh 1233 01:06:47.559 --> 01:06:50.400 my god, immigrations and customs affairs, and we can't have 1234 01:06:50.519 --> 01:06:52.119 ICE agents in our neighborhood. 1235 01:06:52.119 --> 01:06:52.760 This is wrong. 1236 01:06:52.920 --> 01:06:57.519 Mayor Brandon Johnson, Brandon Johnson and Chicago vowing the city 1237 01:06:57.559 --> 01:07:00.880 will never ever cooperate with ICE. You know, again, it's 1238 01:07:01.000 --> 01:07:03.440 unconscionable at a time in which so many working people 1239 01:07:03.480 --> 01:07:05.599 impoor people need government to show up for them. That 1240 01:07:05.639 --> 01:07:10.440 this administration, that Trump administration, has caused so much consternation 1241 01:07:10.599 --> 01:07:11.280 and division. 1242 01:07:15.280 --> 01:07:16.840 Look, we are a welcoming. 1243 01:07:16.440 --> 01:07:19.159 City ordinance, he said, our local police department will not 1244 01:07:19.400 --> 01:07:23.239 ever cooperate with ICE, whatever their constitutional authority is. Note 1245 01:07:23.280 --> 01:07:27.679 that last part of that sentence. We will never cooperate 1246 01:07:27.719 --> 01:07:36.920 with ICE, whatever their constitutional authority is. He doesn't care 1247 01:07:37.000 --> 01:07:40.880 about the law on the books. He is telling people 1248 01:07:40.880 --> 01:07:45.079 to violently oppose immigrations and customs enforcement. No, it's not 1249 01:07:45.199 --> 01:07:48.079 a city policy, it's not a state law that's being enforced. 1250 01:07:48.119 --> 01:07:52.880 It's a federal law that's being enforced duly it acted 1251 01:07:54.400 --> 01:07:57.719 signing law by whatever presidents signed the current existing law, 1252 01:07:57.719 --> 01:07:59.239 and it's been a long time since there was any 1253 01:07:59.280 --> 01:08:02.920 quote unquote in immigration reform. But they have the right 1254 01:08:03.079 --> 01:08:06.239 and legal obligation and duty to do their job, which 1255 01:08:06.280 --> 01:08:08.480 is round up illegal immigrants, most notably going after the 1256 01:08:08.480 --> 01:08:10.639 most criminal element among them, which would be better for 1257 01:08:10.679 --> 01:08:14.400 all the cities, getting the most dangerous violent gang members 1258 01:08:14.400 --> 01:08:16.439 off the streets. Isn't that something we all want? I 1259 01:08:16.439 --> 01:08:20.600 think the answer is probably a resounding hell yes. Brandon 1260 01:08:20.640 --> 01:08:24.359 Johnson not really talking to the people, his constituents, residents 1261 01:08:24.399 --> 01:08:28.720 of the various neighborhoods who've been overrun by migrant gangs 1262 01:08:28.760 --> 01:08:35.039 and crime. But he's out loud, like La mayor Bass, 1263 01:08:35.039 --> 01:08:41.720 out loud, screaming about defying law enforcement. And it doesn't 1264 01:08:41.720 --> 01:08:45.039 take much for those who might defy law enforcement because 1265 01:08:45.039 --> 01:08:48.479 they feel they have some moral right to prevent illegal 1266 01:08:48.560 --> 01:08:50.920 immigrants from being evicted from our country. Oh my god, 1267 01:08:50.920 --> 01:08:55.079 my ancestors were illegal immigrants or whatever. You disagree with 1268 01:08:55.119 --> 01:08:56.680 the policy, you're supposed to deal with it at the 1269 01:08:56.680 --> 01:09:00.239 ballot box. And elective officials who are against the particular 1270 01:09:00.279 --> 01:09:02.199 policy as it is in place. But no, no, no, 1271 01:09:02.239 --> 01:09:05.960 we've moved beyond that because most Americans want them out 1272 01:09:06.119 --> 01:09:10.399 of the country and want a secure border. So the 1273 01:09:10.479 --> 01:09:13.439 leftists aren't going to get their way. So what do 1274 01:09:13.439 --> 01:09:14.600 you do when you can't get your way at the 1275 01:09:14.640 --> 01:09:16.960 ballot box and elect people? Thought, Well, you take it 1276 01:09:16.960 --> 01:09:19.119 to the streets, and you openly and out allowed to 1277 01:09:19.119 --> 01:09:22.319 find laws. So you're talking about ice in this particular place, 1278 01:09:22.359 --> 01:09:25.479 and you have some elevated moral authority to say the 1279 01:09:25.600 --> 01:09:28.840 law is wrong. These are real people. Look, here's an 1280 01:09:28.920 --> 01:09:31.000 immigrant mother who's been here. Blah blah blah. You know 1281 01:09:31.079 --> 01:09:33.560 the old story. They always towed out the worst possible 1282 01:09:33.840 --> 01:09:36.359 factual scenario and hold it up as if every single 1283 01:09:36.399 --> 01:09:39.640 person falls into that particular category of faction. No, how 1284 01:09:39.680 --> 01:09:43.600 about this gang member who raped children. You don't raise 1285 01:09:43.680 --> 01:09:46.239 him in defense of your keeping him in the country. 1286 01:09:46.279 --> 01:09:54.119 You don't use him as a poster child for immigration reform. 1287 01:09:54.239 --> 01:09:58.880 But the leftists who are anxious and want this country 1288 01:09:58.920 --> 01:10:02.359 to fall apart, use that these mayors, these elected officials, 1289 01:10:02.359 --> 01:10:05.000 these people who are supposed to be law enforcers, who 1290 01:10:05.159 --> 01:10:07.760 swore to uphold the Constitution of the United States of 1291 01:10:07.800 --> 01:10:11.359 America as well as their state Constitution and uphold local laws. 1292 01:10:11.399 --> 01:10:13.319 They did take a vow to do that when they 1293 01:10:13.319 --> 01:10:18.680 were elected. They come out swinging against one sliver of 1294 01:10:18.840 --> 01:10:23.079 law enforcement, and it's perceived as an open invitation to 1295 01:10:23.159 --> 01:10:35.439 go after all government, and that's the goal.

It's amazing when 1330 01:12:08.159 --> 01:12:10.079 to change an administration can be Going back to the border, 1331 01:12:10.159 --> 01:12:13.159 obviously the border has been shut down almost one hundred percent. 1332 01:12:13.800 --> 01:12:17.600 We aren't dealing with the mass flood of illegal immigrants 1333 01:12:17.640 --> 01:12:19.359 coming to our country that we had under Joe Biden, 1334 01:12:19.399 --> 01:12:23.520 an intentional thing, but it's having an impact on jobs too. 1335 01:12:23.680 --> 01:12:26.880 It's really wild. Labor Bureau Labor statistics came out the 1336 01:12:26.920 --> 01:12:30.560 other day with some really wild figures. Compared to the 1337 01:12:30.560 --> 01:12:32.960 start of the year, foreign born employment there will be 1338 01:12:33.079 --> 01:12:36.560 immigrant point employment, illegal or otherwise down by half a million, 1339 01:12:36.640 --> 01:12:41.640 over half a million workers, while American born employment citizen 1340 01:12:41.800 --> 01:12:51.600 employment is up by over two million. Labor force participation 1341 01:12:51.760 --> 01:12:54.600 rate rose from sixty one point four percent to sixty 1342 01:12:54.600 --> 01:12:57.279 one point eight percent, just a small percentage increase, but 1343 01:12:57.359 --> 01:13:02.520 still highest level ever of native born Native born Americans 1344 01:13:02.520 --> 01:13:05.279 employed over the Herriage Foundation. 1345 01:13:05.439 --> 01:13:05.680 E J. 1346 01:13:05.880 --> 01:13:11.920 Antony commented on this mainly that compared to former Joe 1347 01:13:11.960 --> 01:13:15.359 Biden's migrant economy economy where nearly all of the net 1348 01:13:15.439 --> 01:13:19.439 job growth went to foreign born workers, Trump's economy delivering 1349 01:13:19.479 --> 01:13:22.600 nearly all net job growth to native born Americans. Quote, 1350 01:13:22.640 --> 01:13:25.039 what a difference a president makes. Last November, the twelve 1351 01:13:25.079 --> 01:13:27.880 month changing jobs among native born Americans was minus one 1352 01:13:27.880 --> 01:13:31.720 point one million, but for June this year, up one 1353 01:13:31.840 --> 01:13:38.720 point seven million. Average hourly earnings for all employees on 1354 01:13:38.800 --> 01:13:45.239 private non farm payroll rows zero point two percent to 1355 01:13:45.359 --> 01:13:47.399 thirty six dollars and thirty cents in June. That's a 1356 01:13:47.479 --> 01:13:49.880 quarter of the Burea of Labor Statistics. So wages are 1357 01:13:50.000 --> 01:13:55.119 up and American born employment is up. Over the past 1358 01:13:55.159 --> 01:13:58.760 twelve months, average hourly earnings are up three point seven percent, 1359 01:13:58.760 --> 01:14:08.600 according to the Bureau Labors to two HM HM migrants gained 1360 01:14:08.600 --> 01:14:11.520 more than four point seven million jobs under Biden. Employment 1361 01:14:11.560 --> 01:14:14.560 growth for native born Americans increased by only six hundred 1362 01:14:14.560 --> 01:14:18.279 and forty five thousand jobs. That's accorded Center for Immigration 1363 01:14:18.399 --> 01:14:22.439 Studies Research. So when you compare the two, obviously, the 1364 01:14:22.479 --> 01:14:26.720 Biden administration did get employment for illegal immigrants, but what 1365 01:14:26.760 --> 01:14:32.479 about Americans, Well, it's flipped dramatically under the Trump administration. 1366 01:14:37.319 --> 01:14:40.159 I suppose someone accused me of xenophobia or something for 1367 01:14:40.239 --> 01:14:44.479 wanting American citizens to get jobs that are obviously available. 1368 01:14:44.520 --> 01:14:47.680 There sixty five come up with six fifty six. The 1369 01:14:47.840 --> 01:14:51.800 Jack added in Big Picture Trump and Churchill, that'll be 1370 01:14:51.800 --> 01:14:53.600 after the top of the Hour News. Always enjoy that 1371 01:14:53.720 --> 01:14:56.000 segment with Jack brilliant he is. I hope he can 1372 01:14:56.000 --> 01:14:56.840 stick around for that. 1373 01:14:57.640 --> 01:15:00.079 A full rundown and the biggest ten lines is and 1374 01:15:00.119 --> 01:15:01.840 it's away at the top of the hour. 1375 01:15:01.880 --> 01:15:04.159 I'm giving you a fact now Americans shouldn't know. 1376 01:15:04.279 --> 01:15:21.680 Fifty five K the talk station Yashi at seven oh six. 1377 01:15:22.079 --> 01:15:26.159 Here a big five KROSD talk station Wednesday. In addition 1378 01:15:26.239 --> 01:15:28.399 to Judge Ennertapolitana, we'll hear from Donald and Neil at 1379 01:15:28.399 --> 01:15:31.680 bottom of the are about rescinding her overriding diwines Vito's 1380 01:15:31.760 --> 01:15:34.159 We are talking right now, getting a big picture with 1381 01:15:34.319 --> 01:15:37.199 Jack Add in a segment I look forward to every 1382 01:15:37.359 --> 01:15:37.960 single week. 1383 01:15:38.039 --> 01:15:39.960 Welcome back, Jack Add. It's always a pleasure to have 1384 01:15:40.039 --> 01:15:40.680 you on the program. 1385 01:15:41.399 --> 01:15:44.680 I've missed your Pale and Joe and all the listeners. 1386 01:15:45.199 --> 01:15:48.239 Amesley and I visited our older daughter and her husband 1387 01:15:48.319 --> 01:15:52.319 in France where they were doing autism research, so we've 1388 01:15:52.359 --> 01:15:55.039 been out of touch, only to return to find this 1389 01:15:55.239 --> 01:16:00.600 horrendous tragity in Texas. I covered floods on the Guadalupe 1390 01:16:00.800 --> 01:16:04.000 River forty years ago working in San Antonio, but this 1391 01:16:04.399 --> 01:16:08.479 is beyond words still. We also returned to a lot 1392 01:16:08.520 --> 01:16:13.119 of good news, Trump ending wars between India and Pakistan, 1393 01:16:13.720 --> 01:16:17.479 Congo and Rwanda, and of course Israel and Iran, and 1394 01:16:17.560 --> 01:16:20.720 now the Palestinians may want to get in. Everyone wants 1395 01:16:20.800 --> 01:16:24.520 to talk peace, maybe even Ukraine and Russia, although I'm 1396 01:16:24.560 --> 01:16:28.239 less optimistic about that. Along with Colonel Davis. Then the 1397 01:16:28.319 --> 01:16:33.239 Supreme Court backing Trump on deportations and limiting nationwide injunctions, 1398 01:16:33.720 --> 01:16:38.720 the University of Pennsylvania even apologizing for letting men compete 1399 01:16:38.840 --> 01:16:39.840 in women's sports. 1400 01:16:39.880 --> 01:16:40.479 How about that, and. 1401 01:16:42.159 --> 01:16:47.439 The President getting his one big beautiful law. It'll preserve 1402 01:16:47.640 --> 01:16:52.479 and expand Trump's first term tax cuts, finish the border wall, 1403 01:16:52.640 --> 01:16:56.520 fully fund ice and defense, including a Golden Dome for America, 1404 01:16:57.079 --> 01:17:01.239 and shift money to parents for cool choice. That may 1405 01:17:01.279 --> 01:17:03.880 be the most important thing of the bill. And yes, 1406 01:17:04.319 --> 01:17:08.800 one point seven trillion dollars in actual spending cuts. But 1407 01:17:08.920 --> 01:17:13.560 then Trump aims to further shrink deficits through deregulation and 1408 01:17:13.840 --> 01:17:19.079 energy production, all to fuel growth. You remember growth, friends, 1409 01:17:19.760 --> 01:17:23.760 Apparently our favorite senator and congressmen from Kentucky do not, 1410 01:17:24.560 --> 01:17:27.720 but it's possible they will vote for the next reconciliation 1411 01:17:28.199 --> 01:17:32.920 and recision bills, maybe Mike Johnson and John thuneval. Those 1412 01:17:33.000 --> 01:17:36.239 will be coming, because, folks, the Big Beautiful Bill was 1413 01:17:36.439 --> 01:17:41.439 just step one necessary but not sufficient. Nobody claimed it was. 1414 01:17:42.760 --> 01:17:44.960 What I'd like to talk about this morning, Brian, though, 1415 01:17:45.760 --> 01:17:49.239 is how ironically none of this might have been possible 1416 01:17:49.600 --> 01:17:53.560 had Trump been declared the winner in twenty twenty. How 1417 01:17:53.640 --> 01:17:57.600 Trump and the country needed is four year long time 1418 01:17:57.880 --> 01:18:02.279 in the wilderness, those four disastrous years of Joe Biden 1419 01:18:02.520 --> 01:18:07.319 and his woke puppet masters welcoming millions of illegals, inviting 1420 01:18:07.399 --> 01:18:12.159 Putin to invade Ukraine, at Hamas to invade Israel, inviting 1421 01:18:12.359 --> 01:18:17.039 inflation dei, the kind of crime we're now seeing spread 1422 01:18:17.119 --> 01:18:21.640 throughout Cincinnati. We needed those four awful years to remind 1423 01:18:21.720 --> 01:18:26.000 America what democratic rule is all about. We had to 1424 01:18:26.039 --> 01:18:28.720 be brought to the brink of what Joe Biden likes 1425 01:18:28.760 --> 01:18:32.840 to call an existential crisis, a real one, not the 1426 01:18:33.000 --> 01:18:36.880 phony crisis. Hakim Jeffreys stumbled and mumbled about for more 1427 01:18:36.920 --> 01:18:41.159 than eight hours trying to keep Republicans from passing that 1428 01:18:41.359 --> 01:18:47.000 one big, beautiful bill. All this got me thinking about 1429 01:18:47.039 --> 01:18:51.359 a man I greatly admire, Winston Churchill, the man who 1430 01:18:51.520 --> 01:18:56.119 single handedly fought off Adolf Hitler until the Japanese forced 1431 01:18:56.119 --> 01:19:00.159 America into World War II. Winston Churchill had all so 1432 01:19:00.520 --> 01:19:04.800 been banished from office for more than twenty years until 1433 01:19:04.920 --> 01:19:08.479 Not so Great Britain finally realized they needed him back. 1434 01:19:09.159 --> 01:19:12.880 Churchill spent those decades in the wilderness following World War One, 1435 01:19:13.319 --> 01:19:17.960 partly because he wanted to overthrow, excuse me, Communism. That's 1436 01:19:18.000 --> 01:19:20.039 one of the reasons he was forced out. It was 1437 01:19:20.079 --> 01:19:22.880 after the Russian Revolution, and then because he wanted to 1438 01:19:22.960 --> 01:19:28.840 stop Nazism in its tracks before Hitler could invade. Britain, France, 1439 01:19:28.960 --> 01:19:32.760 and the United States all thought they could appease Hitler's 1440 01:19:32.800 --> 01:19:36.600 appetite for world conquest and for the extermination of Jews 1441 01:19:36.760 --> 01:19:42.000 and others. Churchill's predecessor, Neville Chamberlain even declared peace in 1442 01:19:42.119 --> 01:19:46.000 our time when he made a deal sacrificing Germany's neighbors. 1443 01:19:46.640 --> 01:19:49.479 But Churchill accused the appeasers. 1444 01:19:48.920 --> 01:19:54.039 Of feeding the crocodile, hoping the crocodile will eat them lost, 1445 01:19:55.039 --> 01:19:58.960 just as Obama and Biden fed Iran cash and phoning 1446 01:19:59.119 --> 01:20:02.840 nuclear deals, only to leave the world weeks some people say, 1447 01:20:02.840 --> 01:20:07.239 even just days away from those America hating jihadists achieving 1448 01:20:07.560 --> 01:20:08.800 nuclear capability. 1449 01:20:10.079 --> 01:20:14.359 In a way, Trump has an advantage over Churchill because 1450 01:20:14.399 --> 01:20:19.520 that British aristocrat remained an imperialist all his life, Churchill 1451 01:20:19.600 --> 01:20:23.479 fought against Britain surrendering India and its other colonies. Had 1452 01:20:23.520 --> 01:20:26.800 he been alive in seventeen seventy six, Churchill would have 1453 01:20:26.840 --> 01:20:31.840 opposed the American Revolution. By contrast, for all his bomb 1454 01:20:31.920 --> 01:20:36.079 bast about making Canada and Greenland the next two United States, 1455 01:20:36.720 --> 01:20:41.159 Trump is really fighting for the American idea, which is 1456 01:20:41.319 --> 01:20:45.880 not about empire. The American idea is all about maintaining 1457 01:20:46.159 --> 01:20:49.960 no more government than we need to defend ourselves against 1458 01:20:50.039 --> 01:20:54.039 foreign foes, no more government than we need to preserve 1459 01:20:54.199 --> 01:20:58.800 God given individual rights. The United States is not a 1460 01:20:58.920 --> 01:21:04.159 kingdom an empire. It's a republic governed by a constitution 1461 01:21:04.680 --> 01:21:08.279 that divides up and strictly limits the power of government, 1462 01:21:08.640 --> 01:21:14.359 including the power of misguided government to open our borders lawlessly, 1463 01:21:14.760 --> 01:21:18.479 to ship our jobs overseas using tax and trade laws, 1464 01:21:18.760 --> 01:21:23.880 and to turn judges and bureaucrats into tyrants. Donald Trump, 1465 01:21:24.359 --> 01:21:28.600 Mike Johnson, John Thune, and those Republicans who, without any 1466 01:21:28.680 --> 01:21:32.039 help from Democrats, just gave us the one big beautiful Bill, 1467 01:21:32.399 --> 01:21:35.479 the one big beautiful start. They did not break or 1468 01:21:35.600 --> 01:21:40.199 ignore any laws or judicial rulings. They even bowed to 1469 01:21:40.319 --> 01:21:44.720 the partisan Congressional Budget Office, which doesn't recognize that tax 1470 01:21:44.800 --> 01:21:47.680 cuts give us more revenue. They even bow to the 1471 01:21:47.760 --> 01:21:50.439 Senate parliamentarian and I don't want to go within that 1472 01:21:50.600 --> 01:21:54.880 she was up to. Look, Brian, this bill is far 1473 01:21:55.000 --> 01:21:58.560 from perfect. That's the nature of democracy. You have to 1474 01:21:58.680 --> 01:22:02.319 compromise so you can elect more people who agree with you, 1475 01:22:02.920 --> 01:22:05.039 which is what we should be focused on right now. 1476 01:22:05.760 --> 01:22:10.239 We don't want unanimity. Only dictatorships are unanimous. We want 1477 01:22:10.359 --> 01:22:13.520 compromise and that allows us to move toward our goals, 1478 01:22:13.920 --> 01:22:19.119 one step at a time, to sum up. In nineteen forty, 1479 01:22:19.760 --> 01:22:24.039 with Hitler overrunning Europe and the luftwuff of Blitz pulverizing 1480 01:22:24.119 --> 01:22:27.479 the British Isles, Britain had no choice but to bring 1481 01:22:27.560 --> 01:22:30.720 Winston Churchill back from the wilderness because he had been 1482 01:22:30.760 --> 01:22:35.000 the only man willing to fight. In twenty twenty four, 1483 01:22:35.479 --> 01:22:39.800 with wars raging across the globe, inflation soaring, our manufacturing 1484 01:22:39.880 --> 01:22:43.880 base lost, and millions of illegal immigrants, many of them 1485 01:22:44.000 --> 01:22:48.800 human traffickers, drug dealers, violent criminals let loose on America 1486 01:22:49.000 --> 01:22:53.880 by the Biden regime, thirty one states, including all of 1487 01:22:53.960 --> 01:22:57.600 the Swing States, brought Donald Trump back from the wilderness 1488 01:22:58.039 --> 01:23:01.119 because Donald Trump was the only man willing to fight. 1489 01:23:02.039 --> 01:23:05.399 There's more fighting left to do, but so far, America 1490 01:23:05.600 --> 01:23:07.159 I think is winning. 1491 01:23:07.640 --> 01:23:08.199 What do you think? 1492 01:23:08.399 --> 01:23:10.800 I agree with you and you know, say we want 1493 01:23:10.800 --> 01:23:12.359 to with a big, beautiful bill which I hate the 1494 01:23:12.439 --> 01:23:14.600 name of it. It does have a lot of very 1495 01:23:14.600 --> 01:23:18.800 important and profound implications positive for the country, and I'm 1496 01:23:20.479 --> 01:23:23.520 i am upset that the current administration isn't as much 1497 01:23:23.560 --> 01:23:25.640 of a deficit hawk as I would like it to be. 1498 01:23:25.840 --> 01:23:28.680 But hopefully, as you pointed out, the improvement in job 1499 01:23:28.760 --> 01:23:31.680 conditions and the economic benefits we get from that bill 1500 01:23:32.079 --> 01:23:35.520 will negate some of the deficit spending reality. But we 1501 01:23:35.600 --> 01:23:38.039 do have an existential threat in terms of our Fiat currency. 1502 01:23:38.359 --> 01:23:40.560 But I appreciate the point that you made about the 1503 01:23:40.720 --> 01:23:46.239 hiatus we had having Biden in office for four years now. 1504 01:23:46.279 --> 01:23:47.960 I don't think Trump would been able to accomplish what 1505 01:23:48.000 --> 01:23:50.239 he's accomplished in lightning speed. 1506 01:23:50.399 --> 01:23:53.239 I mean, it's July Jack. 1507 01:23:53.920 --> 01:23:56.000 Look at what he's been able to do in the 1508 01:23:56.039 --> 01:23:57.680 short period of times since he got sworn in. 1509 01:23:58.079 --> 01:23:58.520 I don't think that. 1510 01:24:00.159 --> 01:24:03.319 And you know, an even bigger irony is that Biden 1511 01:24:03.399 --> 01:24:05.560 and the Democrats might have been much better off had 1512 01:24:05.600 --> 01:24:10.359 they lost the twenty twenty two congressional mid year elections. 1513 01:24:10.720 --> 01:24:15.079 After Bill Clinton lost his midterm elections in nineteen ninety four, 1514 01:24:15.640 --> 01:24:18.760 he declared the era of big government is over, and 1515 01:24:18.840 --> 01:24:21.279 Clinton then went on to work with the new Republican 1516 01:24:21.359 --> 01:24:25.640 House Speaker Nut Gingrich. Together they balanced budgets. They added 1517 01:24:26.319 --> 01:24:30.039 work requirements to welfare, yes they did, until those were 1518 01:24:30.079 --> 01:24:33.800 dissipated under the Democrats, and the good economy that produced 1519 01:24:34.119 --> 01:24:37.880 became Clinton's biggest achievement by the same token. After Barack 1520 01:24:37.920 --> 01:24:41.800 Obama admitted he took a shellacking in the twenty ten 1521 01:24:42.199 --> 01:24:46.119 midterm elections, Obama moved closer to the center on a 1522 01:24:46.199 --> 01:24:51.920 few issues, including illegal immigrants, becoming the deporter in chief, 1523 01:24:52.399 --> 01:24:56.720 and that helped him win reelection in twenty twelve. By contrast, 1524 01:24:57.199 --> 01:25:02.520 the Biden administration became even more radical after winning the 1525 01:25:02.640 --> 01:25:06.560 twenty twenty two midterms, and Kamala Harris got clobbered in 1526 01:25:06.680 --> 01:25:10.760 twenty twenty four having learned nothing and having lost working 1527 01:25:10.880 --> 01:25:14.600 people to Trump. Democrats are more radical now than ever. 1528 01:25:14.960 --> 01:25:17.680 I can't believe what's going on in my old hometown, 1529 01:25:17.760 --> 01:25:21.640 New York City. So Republicans keep working together. As they 1530 01:25:21.800 --> 01:25:26.079 did on this big, beautiful start. I think they'll win 1531 01:25:26.159 --> 01:25:28.600 again next year and in twenty twenty. 1532 01:25:28.359 --> 01:25:33.039 Eight, exactly because we have fresh in our minds what 1533 01:25:33.319 --> 01:25:35.720 was going on and what happened under the Biden administration. 1534 01:25:36.199 --> 01:25:38.239 You know, I've often said, Jack, and maybe you can 1535 01:25:38.319 --> 01:25:40.119 comment on this withether you agree or disagree with me. 1536 01:25:40.800 --> 01:25:42.760 With the fall of the Iron Curtain and the fall 1537 01:25:42.760 --> 01:25:45.800 of the Soviet Union, we lost our moral perspective and 1538 01:25:45.880 --> 01:25:48.680 our moral bearing. They were our arch enemy during the 1539 01:25:48.760 --> 01:25:51.239 Cold War, but get always compared to the United States 1540 01:25:51.279 --> 01:25:53.039 and our standard of living, the fact that we had 1541 01:25:53.159 --> 01:25:56.640 Levi's blue jeans and VCRs and we didn't have breadlines 1542 01:25:56.680 --> 01:25:59.880 with the cold, harsh reality of what communism looked like 1543 01:26:00.720 --> 01:26:06.359 in practice, breadlines, you know, a gray, dismal sort of perspective, 1544 01:26:06.920 --> 01:26:09.479 and we could hold it out against like listen, no, 1545 01:26:09.640 --> 01:26:11.359 you don't want to go that direction. You could fight 1546 01:26:11.439 --> 01:26:14.079 off your political foes who were you know, socialist leaning. 1547 01:26:14.159 --> 01:26:16.640 We would call them comedis and pinkos, and that was 1548 01:26:16.760 --> 01:26:19.079 like the death no for any politician who embraced that 1549 01:26:19.199 --> 01:26:23.199 kind of ideology. We've drifted so far from that perspective 1550 01:26:23.319 --> 01:26:26.479 that we've forgotten about how bad things were in the 1551 01:26:26.560 --> 01:26:29.239 Soviet Union, and to use that as a sort of 1552 01:26:29.279 --> 01:26:33.239 a barometer politically. Now we've got people running as active 1553 01:26:33.399 --> 01:26:36.960 socialist come communists, like notably that Momdammi guy in New York. 1554 01:26:37.680 --> 01:26:41.279 We've just lost sight. But having Joe Biden fresh in 1555 01:26:41.359 --> 01:26:44.039 the rear view mirror and how bad things were under him, 1556 01:26:45.119 --> 01:26:47.600 it's allowed Trump to move forward with his agenda and 1557 01:26:47.680 --> 01:26:50.159 it looks like the American people are pretty happy with it. 1558 01:26:50.880 --> 01:26:54.840 With that question, everybody in your brilliant audience knows the 1559 01:26:55.319 --> 01:26:59.960 term iron curtain was coined by Winston church Yeah, Missouri. Yeah, 1560 01:27:00.000 --> 01:27:04.840 after World War II. No, what the Democrats have to 1561 01:27:04.920 --> 01:27:09.239 do is systematically ruined the character of Americans so that 1562 01:27:09.359 --> 01:27:12.359 they don't realize what life used to be. We're often 1563 01:27:12.720 --> 01:27:16.079 kind of nostalgic for the past, which was not perfect, 1564 01:27:16.439 --> 01:27:18.000 but was a hell of a lot better than what 1565 01:27:18.079 --> 01:27:21.880 we've got now in so many respects today. And Yeah, 1566 01:27:22.479 --> 01:27:27.479 George Orwell, who after Churchill, was perhaps the best diagnostician 1567 01:27:27.960 --> 01:27:33.560 of communism, writing all about Stalinism, noted that a key 1568 01:27:33.720 --> 01:27:37.520 tenant of Stalinist's strategy was to keep in front of 1569 01:27:37.720 --> 01:27:41.000 his people big brothers people, the idea that there was 1570 01:27:41.039 --> 01:27:43.079 an enemy out there who was going to make life 1571 01:27:43.119 --> 01:27:45.920 even worse for them right than it was under Big Brother. 1572 01:27:46.560 --> 01:27:50.079 They called him a Manuel Goldstein, and every day there 1573 01:27:50.199 --> 01:27:53.560 was a two minute hate. People got together in groups 1574 01:27:53.600 --> 01:27:56.880 wherever they were and yelled how much they hated Goldstein. 1575 01:27:57.239 --> 01:27:59.479 That's what the Democrats are doing now with Donald Trump. 1576 01:28:00.000 --> 01:28:02.560 We didn't need to make up a character. We had 1577 01:28:02.680 --> 01:28:06.399 Joe Biden's administration. And one of the things Joe Biden 1578 01:28:06.560 --> 01:28:10.359 himself as an individual is a hateful person. We all 1579 01:28:10.439 --> 01:28:12.800 know now that he was beyond being hateful. He was 1580 01:28:12.840 --> 01:28:16.319 simply not there. We had him in front of us 1581 01:28:16.359 --> 01:28:18.800 for four years, and that's why we were able. 1582 01:28:18.600 --> 01:28:20.560 To move on. Amen. 1583 01:28:20.880 --> 01:28:24.279 It's an outstanding analysis, as it always is, Jack, evidence 1584 01:28:24.359 --> 01:28:26.840 why I love having you on my program every single week. 1585 01:28:27.319 --> 01:28:29.840 God bless him. Glad you're back, Glad you had saved travels, 1586 01:28:29.880 --> 01:28:32.840 and I'll look forward to next Monday with another insightful 1587 01:28:32.920 --> 01:28:36.520 informative discussion with you, and between now and then, as always, 1588 01:28:36.800 --> 01:28:38.479 Bet the best of love and health to you and 1589 01:28:38.600 --> 01:28:39.279 your better. 1590 01:28:39.119 --> 01:28:41.039 Half, Aimsley and Paul Man. 1591 01:28:41.119 --> 01:28:43.600 Thanks so much, Pal, Thanks brother seven nineteen right now 1592 01:28:43.680 --> 01:28:44.479 forty five krs. 1593 01:28:44.720 --> 01:28:45.439 The talk station. 1594 01:28:45.560 --> 01:28:49.239 How about saving lots of money, thousands and thousands of 1595 01:28:49.439 --> 01:28:53.840 dollars in savings. It's if it's affordable imaging services. You know, 1596 01:28:53.920 --> 01:28:56.159 we all have to get an echo cardigram, an MRI, 1597 01:28:56.319 --> 01:28:58.840 a CT scan and or an ultrasound at some point 1598 01:28:58.880 --> 01:28:59.920 in our life. And if you go to the host 1599 01:29:00.199 --> 01:29:03.520 imaging department, it's going to be thousands of dollars. Nothing 1600 01:29:03.600 --> 01:29:06.760 at affordable imaging services for images is more than I think. 1601 01:29:06.840 --> 01:29:09.319 The most expensive thing is like eight hundred bucks there, 1602 01:29:09.880 --> 01:29:11.920 and that may be an echo cardogram with an enhancement. 1603 01:29:13.079 --> 01:29:15.119 You pay like thirty five hundred dollars even more at 1604 01:29:15.159 --> 01:29:17.640 the hospital for that. I haven't seen updated pricing, but 1605 01:29:17.680 --> 01:29:21.840 I understand hospital charges are going up shocking. No one 1606 01:29:22.399 --> 01:29:25.079 don't spend five grand at a hospital imaging department to 1607 01:29:25.119 --> 01:29:27.560 get a CT scan. I've gotten several CT scans that 1608 01:29:27.600 --> 01:29:30.840 affordable imaging services. The doctors always saying no problem with 1609 01:29:30.920 --> 01:29:33.920 the image of the board certified radiologists report, which the 1610 01:29:34.039 --> 01:29:37.720 price comes with included. You get a separate charge at 1611 01:29:37.800 --> 01:29:41.079 hospitals often for that. It's low overhead, yes, but the 1612 01:29:41.119 --> 01:29:45.520 same equipment hospitals use and professionals running it. The radiologists 1613 01:29:45.560 --> 01:29:48.439 report it all comes in one low, low price. So 1614 01:29:48.880 --> 01:29:51.279 at ct scan four hundred and fifty bucks without a 1615 01:29:51.359 --> 01:29:54.119 contrast six hundred with a contrast compared to again five 1616 01:29:54.239 --> 01:29:58.319 thousand or perhaps more at a hospital. So exercise your 1617 01:29:58.359 --> 01:30:00.680 right to a choice. You have a choice when it 1618 01:30:00.720 --> 01:30:04.279 comes to medical care, including imaging five one three, seven, 1619 01:30:04.359 --> 01:30:06.920 five three eight thousand, five one three, seven, five three 1620 01:30:06.960 --> 01:30:11.119 eight thousand.

And notably among the 1626 01:30:30.119 --> 01:30:32.680 list is not the six hundred million dollars for the 1627 01:30:33.439 --> 01:30:36.199 for the Cleveland Browns. I was going on a tear 1628 01:30:36.319 --> 01:30:38.720 on that this morning because we're gonna hear from Mark 1629 01:30:38.920 --> 01:30:42.600 Dan who's a lawyer of the founding partner of Dan Law. 1630 01:30:42.760 --> 01:30:45.479 They have filed a lawsuit against a munch of officials 1631 01:30:45.520 --> 01:30:49.439 in Ohio uh saying that the rating of that that 1632 01:30:49.680 --> 01:30:52.479 fund six point or four point eight billion dollar fund. 1633 01:30:54.319 --> 01:30:54.960 Is illegal. 1634 01:30:55.960 --> 01:30:56.079 Now. 1635 01:30:56.119 --> 01:30:58.720 I know the budget changed the law and said unclaim 1636 01:30:58.880 --> 01:31:03.640 funds can be taken by the state after ten years, 1637 01:31:03.760 --> 01:31:08.760 but their lawsuits suggests otherwise. And I again whether it's 1638 01:31:08.840 --> 01:31:10.960 lawful or not. And we'll hear the details about the 1639 01:31:11.079 --> 01:31:13.159 state of the law from Mark dan He's gonna be 1640 01:31:13.199 --> 01:31:16.159 on an eight ZHO five. I go back to the 1641 01:31:16.239 --> 01:31:19.560 morality the ethics of it. You know, this this idea 1642 01:31:19.680 --> 01:31:23.279 that our taxpayer dollars even if its unclaimed fund, so 1643 01:31:23.399 --> 01:31:25.560 they didn't take it from you necessarily, but they took 1644 01:31:25.560 --> 01:31:27.720 it from someone who didn't claim like a closed bank 1645 01:31:27.800 --> 01:31:37.520 account or an uncash check. That just the idea that 1646 01:31:37.720 --> 01:31:44.399 money would go to a sports entity privately owned is 1647 01:31:47.479 --> 01:31:50.319 I just find a contrary to the founding principles of 1648 01:31:50.359 --> 01:31:52.920 our country. You know, Jack edd had talked about the 1649 01:31:53.079 --> 01:31:57.560 constitution being a limitation on government. We all know how 1650 01:31:57.680 --> 01:32:00.720 ineffective it is anymore as a limitation on government, which 1651 01:32:00.720 --> 01:32:02.560 is why you have to have an administration who is 1652 01:32:02.640 --> 01:32:06.560 interested in taking back the powers of government and get 1653 01:32:06.640 --> 01:32:08.199 returning them to you where they belong in. 1654 01:32:08.239 --> 01:32:09.000 The first instance. 1655 01:32:10.359 --> 01:32:14.560 But right here in Ohio, a state that is dominated 1656 01:32:14.600 --> 01:32:19.000 by Republicans and a budget that was controlled by Republicans, 1657 01:32:20.000 --> 01:32:27.119 that we would use that money for sports. There's never 1658 01:32:27.520 --> 01:32:29.600 an end to the hands that want to end up 1659 01:32:29.640 --> 01:32:31.680 in the cookie jar. And how they arrived at that 1660 01:32:31.840 --> 01:32:34.640 decision is just it's like the peace of God for me, folks, 1661 01:32:35.439 --> 01:32:38.239 passes all human understanding, or at least my human understanding. 1662 01:32:38.680 --> 01:32:40.199 So they were looking forward to having him back on 1663 01:32:40.319 --> 01:32:42.359 and looking forward to Donovan and Neil coming and joining 1664 01:32:42.399 --> 01:32:44.079 the program in the next segment to talk about what 1665 01:32:44.239 --> 01:32:49.039 they want by way of veto override seven twenty five. 1666 01:32:49.119 --> 01:32:53.479 Right now, forty five KC detalk station cover sency just 1667 01:32:54.000 --> 01:32:54.439 call them. 1668 01:32:55.560 --> 01:32:58.239 You know, it's a great time to start thinking about 1669 01:32:58.279 --> 01:33:01.000 your medical insurance. And it's always a great time. And 1670 01:33:01.399 --> 01:33:03.399 there are changes in the great, big, Beautiful Bill. I 1671 01:33:03.479 --> 01:33:07.079 learned about this from John Rohlman the other day. The 1672 01:33:07.319 --> 01:33:09.560 tax credit that you get is now going to be 1673 01:33:09.680 --> 01:33:12.000 capped again. Before COVID kicked in, I think it was 1674 01:33:12.039 --> 01:33:15.800 like a sixty four thousand dollars a year earnings tax cap. 1675 01:33:16.000 --> 01:33:18.439 So if you made more than that by even a dollar, 1676 01:33:18.600 --> 01:33:22.039 you no longer got some tax incentive and relief for 1677 01:33:22.159 --> 01:33:24.800 the Obamacare premium. So that's disappearing So if you're in 1678 01:33:24.880 --> 01:33:26.800 that situation, you want to reach out to cover since 1679 01:33:26.840 --> 01:33:28.199 you and talk to John about a better way to 1680 01:33:28.239 --> 01:33:31.239 get insured medically, and you can save a heapload of 1681 01:33:31.359 --> 01:33:34.079 money while getting dollar one coverage. Right, you know you 1682 01:33:34.159 --> 01:33:35.760 got you know, I have ten thousand dollars out of 1683 01:33:35.800 --> 01:33:40.560 pocket responsibility under Obamacare next year, and that's twenty thousand dollars. 1684 01:33:40.680 --> 01:33:42.479 If you've got a family, you have that kind of 1685 01:33:42.520 --> 01:33:44.760 money in your pocket. Well, John can solve the problem 1686 01:33:44.840 --> 01:33:47.359 for you. Small businesses, you need to reach out to 1687 01:33:47.439 --> 01:33:50.039 John as well, because he can improve your business's bottom 1688 01:33:50.079 --> 01:33:53.520 line while getting your employees better medical insurance coverage, coverage 1689 01:33:53.520 --> 01:33:56.760 that they're actually going to want to to buy. And 1690 01:33:56.880 --> 01:33:59.039 as some folks don't make much money and they can't 1691 01:33:59.119 --> 01:34:02.319 imagine the idea having ten thousand dollars out of pocket liability, 1692 01:34:02.359 --> 01:34:04.680 So why even bothered buying the medical insurance? Well John 1693 01:34:04.720 --> 01:34:07.119 can solve that problem. He and his team are doing 1694 01:34:07.159 --> 01:34:10.079 this every single day and it doesn't cost you a dime. 1695 01:34:10.800 --> 01:34:13.560 They work with hundreds of insurance companies thousands of different 1696 01:34:13.640 --> 01:34:16.439 policies to put the package of insurance together that meets 1697 01:34:16.560 --> 01:34:20.159 your specific needs, get your actual coverage for less money, 1698 01:34:20.520 --> 01:34:23.399 So give him a call five on three eight hundred 1699 01:34:23.520 --> 01:34:26.119 call five one three eight hundred two two five five. Again, 1700 01:34:26.159 --> 01:34:28.399 no obligation or cost to you to have them do 1701 01:34:28.479 --> 01:34:31.359 this analysis on your behalf to start the process. Make 1702 01:34:31.399 --> 01:34:33.359 it really easy. Just go to the website that's cover 1703 01:34:33.560 --> 01:34:36.119 Since dot Com, Cover since Hea dot Com. 1704 01:34:36.479 --> 01:34:37.600 Fifty five KRC. 1705 01:34:38.239 --> 01:34:40.600 Hey there, History fans, I heartrate thirty if you have 1706 01:34:40.680 --> 01:34:44.600 on car CD talk station and a very happy Wednesday 1707 01:34:44.680 --> 01:34:46.960 to you, always extra special talking with Donovan and Neil 1708 01:34:46.960 --> 01:34:49.439 from Americans for Prosperity doing great work here in the 1709 01:34:49.479 --> 01:34:52.199 state of Ohio to try to bring about some fiscal 1710 01:34:52.319 --> 01:34:54.079 sanity and responsibility and government. 1711 01:34:54.119 --> 01:34:57.840 Donovan, welcome back to the Morning show, my friend Brian. 1712 01:34:57.880 --> 01:34:59.479 Always good to be with you. Thanks for having me. 1713 01:35:00.000 --> 01:35:01.439 All right, So we got the budget here in the 1714 01:35:01.479 --> 01:35:03.920 state of Ohio, and I've been on a tear constantly, 1715 01:35:04.239 --> 01:35:06.039 of course, because of the six hundred million dollars going 1716 01:35:06.039 --> 01:35:07.640 to the Browns, and I know you have no control 1717 01:35:07.760 --> 01:35:10.399 over that, and it's not something that dwind vetoed, which 1718 01:35:10.479 --> 01:35:12.760 really kind of irked me considering what he did veto 1719 01:35:13.680 --> 01:35:16.920 But because Vetos line item veto's which our governor has 1720 01:35:17.000 --> 01:35:21.479 the authority to do. They can be overridden, and that's 1721 01:35:21.479 --> 01:35:23.359 what you're working on now to override some of the 1722 01:35:23.439 --> 01:35:25.800 veto's Dwine did, and some of them making me scratch 1723 01:35:25.880 --> 01:35:28.439 my head. It seems like everything related to providing the 1724 01:35:28.760 --> 01:35:32.680 Hiolins with property tax relief were the subject of the 1725 01:35:32.800 --> 01:35:35.119 veto pen and the line eye of veto. I guess 1726 01:35:35.600 --> 01:35:39.720 sort of as a broader perspective, why did Dwine vote 1727 01:35:39.800 --> 01:35:41.560 what I think a lot of people really would have 1728 01:35:41.600 --> 01:35:44.640 really appreciated, which is some relief toward property taxes. 1729 01:35:46.119 --> 01:35:47.920 Well, that's been a bit of a head scratcher. 1730 01:35:48.359 --> 01:35:50.840 Each of these vetos, the governor does put out a 1731 01:35:50.920 --> 01:35:54.319 veto message, you know, it's sort of a well curated, 1732 01:35:55.159 --> 01:35:58.520 you know, statement on each one of the items in general, 1733 01:35:58.720 --> 01:36:01.039 would I would summarize these as I understand them as 1734 01:36:01.359 --> 01:36:06.479 the governor felt like more review was necessary before making 1735 01:36:06.560 --> 01:36:09.359 any changes to the property tax system here in the 1736 01:36:09.399 --> 01:36:12.920 state of Ohio, which to me, Brian is ludicrous because 1737 01:36:13.640 --> 01:36:16.600 last year there was a select committee created in last 1738 01:36:16.680 --> 01:36:21.560 year's budget that met and vetted hundreds of hours of testimony. 1739 01:36:21.960 --> 01:36:25.760 Hundreds of organizations delivered testimony, and they developed a report 1740 01:36:25.800 --> 01:36:28.439 that was released late last year. I think twenty one 1741 01:36:28.760 --> 01:36:31.720 with items of recommendations. 1742 01:36:31.119 --> 01:36:33.680 Which some of which items were the ones that were 1743 01:36:33.720 --> 01:36:37.960 included in the bill which he vetoed then correct and. 1744 01:36:38.119 --> 01:36:41.840 Also were items that over the last six months had 1745 01:36:41.920 --> 01:36:46.079 received House and Senate versions of legislation, which also Brian 1746 01:36:46.279 --> 01:36:51.840 received hundreds of hours of public vetting by organizations across 1747 01:36:52.000 --> 01:36:57.760 the political spectrum, local government entities and otherwise that ultimately 1748 01:36:57.920 --> 01:37:00.000 the items that were included in the state budget. 1749 01:37:00.159 --> 01:37:01.920 Regarding property taxes. 1750 01:37:01.600 --> 01:37:06.800 I think we're generally very well vetted, generally popular ideas 1751 01:37:06.840 --> 01:37:10.199 that would actually solve some of the transparency and accountability 1752 01:37:10.279 --> 01:37:13.119 issues as well as bring direct relief to property tax owners. 1753 01:37:13.279 --> 01:37:16.920 Right, maybe not as much as we all want. I mean, 1754 01:37:16.960 --> 01:37:19.560 they weren't going to solve the problem of our property 1755 01:37:19.600 --> 01:37:22.279 taxes going up thirty percent or whatever in any given 1756 01:37:22.359 --> 01:37:24.720 year when they do the review, but at least they 1757 01:37:24.760 --> 01:37:27.960 would help in some way, so you know, every little 1758 01:37:27.960 --> 01:37:29.840 bit counts. I mean, I'll take a little bit. I'm 1759 01:37:29.840 --> 01:37:31.279 not going to get one hundred percent of what I want, 1760 01:37:31.399 --> 01:37:33.960 like how about no property tax, but at least that 1761 01:37:34.039 --> 01:37:36.840 they provided some foundation for us to get some you know, 1762 01:37:37.239 --> 01:37:39.880 transparency as you point out, or at least some measure 1763 01:37:39.920 --> 01:37:41.560 of relief, then why not? 1764 01:37:41.800 --> 01:37:46.199 What's wrong with it? Mike Dwine, Well. 1765 01:37:46.199 --> 01:37:47.720 Yeah, and I think that's why you're seeing such a 1766 01:37:47.840 --> 01:37:53.079 rapid response from lawmakers to come back and start with 1767 01:37:53.239 --> 01:37:57.600 this tranch of vetos. They're sixty seven in total number 1768 01:37:57.640 --> 01:37:59.079 of them. I think they still need to do more 1769 01:37:59.119 --> 01:38:02.239 overrights on butts. For now, we've got a commitment you 1770 01:38:02.319 --> 01:38:07.039 know that the legislature made yesterday calling numbers back January 1771 01:38:07.119 --> 01:38:11.520 twenty first, eleven am to vote on overriding three the 1772 01:38:11.600 --> 01:38:14.319 three property tax items that the governor. 1773 01:38:14.039 --> 01:38:16.239 Vetoed Okay, And before we get to the specific ones 1774 01:38:16.239 --> 01:38:17.720 we're going to talk about, I'll probably have to take 1775 01:38:17.720 --> 01:38:20.199 a break before we dive into those specifically. But by 1776 01:38:20.279 --> 01:38:22.520 way of process, as I understand it, I had one 1777 01:38:22.520 --> 01:38:25.039 of the state senators on the show, they don't have 1778 01:38:25.279 --> 01:38:28.319 to override all the vetos at one time that they want. 1779 01:38:28.359 --> 01:38:31.199 I mean, they can do them maybe three when they return, 1780 01:38:31.439 --> 01:38:33.720 and then further in the year they might want to 1781 01:38:33.760 --> 01:38:36.800 override some other vetos, so they can do little bytes 1782 01:38:36.840 --> 01:38:38.800 at the apple or or just a step by step 1783 01:38:38.880 --> 01:38:41.760 process up to a certain deadline. 1784 01:38:41.840 --> 01:38:44.239 Correct, they can do all that. 1785 01:38:44.399 --> 01:38:48.520 And they can even just take these ideas as bills, right, Yeah, 1786 01:38:48.680 --> 01:38:50.680 run these bills through the process and send the bills 1787 01:38:50.680 --> 01:38:51.600 straight up to the governor. 1788 01:38:51.640 --> 01:38:54.680 So there's a lot of different paths the legislature has, okay, 1789 01:38:54.880 --> 01:38:57.840 and maybe the latter one and it will be even 1790 01:38:57.880 --> 01:38:58.479 more effective. 1791 01:38:58.560 --> 01:38:59.000 I don't know. 1792 01:38:59.199 --> 01:39:01.279 But if they can override the vetos, we get what 1793 01:39:01.359 --> 01:39:03.560 we want without having to go through another legislative session 1794 01:39:03.640 --> 01:39:05.920 and you know, through the committees, and they have that 1795 01:39:06.079 --> 01:39:08.720 introduced and been back and forth with the House and Senate. 1796 01:39:09.079 --> 01:39:11.560 Fair enough, let's bring Donovan O'Neil back to talk about 1797 01:39:11.560 --> 01:39:14.479 the three ones that they're targeting, and hopefully we'll get 1798 01:39:14.520 --> 01:39:16.880 some relief from our elected officials on that and then 1799 01:39:17.000 --> 01:39:19.960 property tax relief to follow seven thirty five. Right now, 1800 01:39:19.960 --> 01:39:22.239 if you have KCD talk station, get in touch with 1801 01:39:22.319 --> 01:39:26.640 foreign exchange, get your imported car fixed traditionally manufactured in 1802 01:39:26.760 --> 01:39:30.439 Asia or Europe, or your Tesla they are certified to fixed. 1803 01:39:30.479 --> 01:39:33.880 Tesla is now foreign exchange. I choose the Westchester location 1804 01:39:34.000 --> 01:39:36.560 where Austoin and this team of ASC certified master technicians 1805 01:39:36.640 --> 01:39:39.000 work on our cars and they have for years and years. 1806 01:39:39.479 --> 01:39:41.319 And the reason we go to a foreign exchange and 1807 01:39:41.399 --> 01:39:43.800 not the dealer is because of the price. Well, I 1808 01:39:43.880 --> 01:39:46.039 say customer service is better as well, and that goes 1809 01:39:46.039 --> 01:39:49.760 with that saying for me. But your bottom line is 1810 01:39:49.760 --> 01:39:53.720 the bottom line, and cars car repairs are getting really expensive, 1811 01:39:53.800 --> 01:39:55.520 not that they always haven't been expensive, but they're going 1812 01:39:55.560 --> 01:39:57.600 through the roof, so why not save So take the 1813 01:39:57.720 --> 01:39:59.760 sting out of a car repair. By going to foreign 1814 01:39:59.760 --> 01:40:02.640 exch you will leave with a repaired car and a 1815 01:40:02.720 --> 01:40:05.199 full warranty on parts and service. So you got that 1816 01:40:05.359 --> 01:40:07.359 going for you. You got more money in your pocket. 1817 01:40:08.079 --> 01:40:10.680 There's just no reason. There's no downside with foreign exchange. 1818 01:40:10.720 --> 01:40:13.600 I assure you of that. So the Tylersville exit off 1819 01:40:13.640 --> 01:40:17.720 of seventy five, go east on Tylersville only two streets. 1820 01:40:17.760 --> 01:40:19.920 It's a real short jog from the exchange right there, 1821 01:40:20.079 --> 01:40:23.880 right on Kingland driving.

Brian here with Donald and Neil for Americans 1844 01:41:35.319 --> 01:41:38.960 for Prosperity. All right overriding Mike Dwines Vetos. There are 1845 01:41:39.039 --> 01:41:41.399 three of them that you've identified that apparently they have 1846 01:41:41.520 --> 01:41:46.119 already elected officials have already identified to vote on overriding. 1847 01:41:47.159 --> 01:41:50.199 Let's start with the property tax the County Budget Commission 1848 01:41:50.199 --> 01:41:52.720 authority and procedure' what's this one all about? What would 1849 01:41:52.760 --> 01:41:55.760 the override do? And if implemented, what would this do 1850 01:41:56.039 --> 01:41:58.760 by way of relief for us well? 1851 01:41:58.880 --> 01:42:01.239 So, one of the things that we has sort of 1852 01:42:01.279 --> 01:42:05.039 been identified and vetted through last year's Joint Committee and 1853 01:42:05.119 --> 01:42:09.760 through testimony this year is that there needs to be 1854 01:42:09.800 --> 01:42:13.199 another layer of accountability on behalf of the taxpayers to 1855 01:42:13.279 --> 01:42:15.560 make sure that all of the taxing entities within a 1856 01:42:15.680 --> 01:42:20.600 county are taxing just what they need, not what they 1857 01:42:20.760 --> 01:42:23.079 want is how I describe it right, and so On 1858 01:42:23.239 --> 01:42:26.760 local levels, we have county budget commissions. These are made 1859 01:42:26.800 --> 01:42:30.119 up of the prosecutor, the treasurer, and the county auditor. 1860 01:42:30.199 --> 01:42:33.079 All of our counties have these, and what their job 1861 01:42:33.199 --> 01:42:35.600 is to do is to review every year, they review 1862 01:42:35.720 --> 01:42:38.960 the budget for all the political subdivisions within the county 1863 01:42:39.439 --> 01:42:42.199 and make sure that it's leving the right property taxes 1864 01:42:42.359 --> 01:42:44.439 and collecting the necessary moneies. 1865 01:42:44.479 --> 01:42:44.760 Owed. 1866 01:42:45.359 --> 01:42:47.640 What the legislature started to kind of pinpoint here is 1867 01:42:47.680 --> 01:42:50.520 that we should empower the County Budget Commission to have 1868 01:42:50.760 --> 01:42:53.640 stronger oversight on behalf of the taxpayers. So if you 1869 01:42:53.760 --> 01:42:56.199 have a school district that's sitting on one hundred thousand 1870 01:42:56.239 --> 01:42:59.279 dollars as for example, although in this case be forty 1871 01:42:59.319 --> 01:43:02.239 thousand dollars, so any to over forty thousand, I'm sorry, 1872 01:43:02.600 --> 01:43:07.800 forty percent cash carryover, the County Budget Commission could challenge 1873 01:43:07.880 --> 01:43:11.439 that school board to put that money back to the 1874 01:43:11.520 --> 01:43:13.600 taxpayers and say, hey, look, you're not using the money. 1875 01:43:14.199 --> 01:43:16.439 You continue to go to the taxpayers and raise their 1876 01:43:16.479 --> 01:43:19.079 property taxes. What we're going to ask you is we 1877 01:43:19.079 --> 01:43:20.760 can say, We're gonna say you can continue to collect 1878 01:43:20.760 --> 01:43:23.600 the money you need, you can even hold forty percent 1879 01:43:23.680 --> 01:43:27.000 of your carryover, but anything beyond that you got to 1880 01:43:27.000 --> 01:43:29.520 give back to the taxpayers. If you don't have a valid, 1881 01:43:30.039 --> 01:43:33.119 necessary purpose to use that money. Well, that it would 1882 01:43:33.119 --> 01:43:37.359 create a new check in balance to strengthen taxpayer protections on. 1883 01:43:37.359 --> 01:43:40.239 A local level. I get it all day long, and 1884 01:43:40.319 --> 01:43:41.399 I understand the point of it. 1885 01:43:41.520 --> 01:43:45.840 But would that not potentially encourage the school board to 1886 01:43:46.239 --> 01:43:50.640 spend needlessly in order to get below that forty percent carryover? 1887 01:43:52.119 --> 01:43:54.119 Well, I think that's one of the loopholes that can 1888 01:43:54.199 --> 01:43:56.760 definitely occur there. But I think what part of the 1889 01:43:57.119 --> 01:43:59.279 way the reformers like David Thomas and others who are 1890 01:43:59.319 --> 01:44:00.920 working on this issue. You see this as this is 1891 01:44:00.960 --> 01:44:04.319 a multi year effort to begin to reform structurally the 1892 01:44:04.359 --> 01:44:07.600 way that we do this so ten twenty fifty years 1893 01:44:07.640 --> 01:44:10.239 from now we don't find ourselves in a similar property 1894 01:44:10.319 --> 01:44:11.039 tax crisis. 1895 01:44:11.399 --> 01:44:12.439 So it can provide some. 1896 01:44:12.479 --> 01:44:15.520 Immediate relief, but then long term, the idea here is 1897 01:44:15.560 --> 01:44:18.640 it's going to provide some structural checks and balances to 1898 01:44:18.840 --> 01:44:21.960 make sure that we don't get into a situation like 1899 01:44:22.079 --> 01:44:23.319 we find ourselves in today. 1900 01:44:23.600 --> 01:44:25.800 Okay, And the other component of this just looking at 1901 01:44:25.800 --> 01:44:28.359 the details. The devil's always in the details. The three 1902 01:44:28.520 --> 01:44:32.079 individuals you identified and the prosecutor whoever the three of 1903 01:44:32.119 --> 01:44:36.479 the represent this committee. Do they have the resources, the wherewithal, 1904 01:44:36.760 --> 01:44:40.600 the knowledge, the ability to look into each and every 1905 01:44:40.800 --> 01:44:43.760 taxing authority within the county. I mean, you think about 1906 01:44:43.760 --> 01:44:46.279 the various townships and how it's all broken down. This 1907 01:44:46.439 --> 01:44:50.119 is a whole lot of say, school districts that they'd 1908 01:44:50.199 --> 01:44:52.319 have to look at case by case. That's a lot 1909 01:44:52.399 --> 01:44:53.880 a lot of work that they would have to do, 1910 01:44:54.000 --> 01:44:57.680 and would they even do it effectively? Well, the nice 1911 01:44:57.680 --> 01:45:00.239 thing is is that actually already exists. So they already eat, 1912 01:45:00.359 --> 01:45:03.800 They already exist within the Ohire Revice Code. What this 1913 01:45:03.920 --> 01:45:06.119 would have done with this, the proposals would do is 1914 01:45:06.279 --> 01:45:11.399 strengthen that body right oversight. But they'd have to do 1915 01:45:11.520 --> 01:45:15.159 basically an accounting of the carryover that That seems to 1916 01:45:15.199 --> 01:45:19.000 me the really the fundamental point here is how much 1917 01:45:19.079 --> 01:45:21.000 do they have left in their budget from the prior 1918 01:45:21.279 --> 01:45:24.479 year of expenditures or prior budget and are they at 1919 01:45:24.600 --> 01:45:29.319 an over that forty percent mark? Given the number of 1920 01:45:29.319 --> 01:45:32.319 school districts, even in Hamilton County. I just I find 1921 01:45:32.359 --> 01:45:33.600 it hard to believe that they'll be able to get 1922 01:45:33.640 --> 01:45:36.800 that work done, be honest with you, Donovan, That. 1923 01:45:36.880 --> 01:45:40.119 Actually all but see here Brian, that information already already exists. 1924 01:45:40.279 --> 01:45:42.600 Oh okay, so the state already has that, so you 1925 01:45:42.680 --> 01:45:47.079 can go and you can view that information now you can. 1926 01:45:47.319 --> 01:45:50.359 And so it's really just giving them the authority to 1927 01:45:50.479 --> 01:45:53.159 be able to point to this and say, look, you're 1928 01:45:53.159 --> 01:45:55.359 sitting on a lot of cash. You're now coming to 1929 01:45:55.479 --> 01:45:57.640 us asking and in this case in some cases coming 1930 01:45:57.640 --> 01:46:01.600 to us asking for another levee to go on the ballot. Right, 1931 01:46:02.119 --> 01:46:05.119 either spend the money you already have returned to the taxpayers, 1932 01:46:05.199 --> 01:46:06.640 or don't even go you know, don't go to the 1933 01:46:06.680 --> 01:46:08.720 ballot for more money because you're flushless cast. 1934 01:46:08.840 --> 01:46:10.960 I was not aware of those figures existed, because you 1935 01:46:11.079 --> 01:46:13.960 might have seems like I would have heard about that 1936 01:46:14.800 --> 01:46:17.359 in arguments over whether or not any given school levee 1937 01:46:17.560 --> 01:46:21.760 is justified or not. So all right, uh, item too. 1938 01:46:21.920 --> 01:46:25.119 The twenty mili floor calculation vetoed by governor to one. 1939 01:46:25.239 --> 01:46:27.640 What's what's this one going to do if overridden? 1940 01:46:28.920 --> 01:46:32.319 So the twenty mil floor is a very flunky calculation. 1941 01:46:32.479 --> 01:46:35.600 But basically, in the state of Ohio, every school district 1942 01:46:35.680 --> 01:46:39.399 is entitled to twenty mills or two percent of the 1943 01:46:39.520 --> 01:46:42.800 property tax evaluation within that school district. So it's guaranteed 1944 01:46:43.279 --> 01:46:47.279 they would they that money they get. But what we've 1945 01:46:47.319 --> 01:46:49.760 found over the years, what has occurred over the last 1946 01:46:49.760 --> 01:46:52.600 several decades, is there are a number of levees, like 1947 01:46:52.800 --> 01:46:57.119 fixed some emergency levees that are not counted within that 1948 01:46:57.199 --> 01:47:00.239 twenty mil floor. And so what you have is, because 1949 01:47:00.239 --> 01:47:04.279 you're gonna use funy numbers illustrative purposes, right, ten mills 1950 01:47:04.880 --> 01:47:08.680 of you know, existing levees are counted. You know, you 1951 01:47:08.760 --> 01:47:10.159 got on the ballot, You've go one to the voters, 1952 01:47:10.159 --> 01:47:14.439 and that's on within that twenty mil floor. The state 1953 01:47:14.479 --> 01:47:17.720 automatically ups you another ten mills, so you got your 1954 01:47:17.760 --> 01:47:20.239 twenty mil floor. Ten of that was never voted for, 1955 01:47:20.439 --> 01:47:23.479 but it's just guaranteed. And then you have these other 1956 01:47:23.600 --> 01:47:27.279 levees counted outside of that. What we're saying is you 1957 01:47:27.399 --> 01:47:30.159 need to push those as many of those levees into 1958 01:47:30.199 --> 01:47:32.840 that twenty mil floor and they all be counted, not 1959 01:47:33.079 --> 01:47:36.039 use these creative what do you call creative loophole to 1960 01:47:36.479 --> 01:47:39.479 pull levees outside of that floor, giving school districts the 1961 01:47:39.560 --> 01:47:45.399 ability to sort of just automatically increase property taxes on 1962 01:47:45.479 --> 01:47:49.119 folks without it actually going to the voter. And so 1963 01:47:49.279 --> 01:47:50.920 what this would have done is push all of those 1964 01:47:51.039 --> 01:47:54.039 levees that are currently carried, you know, put on the 1965 01:47:54.279 --> 01:47:56.920 people of the state of Ohio within that twenty mil floor. 1966 01:47:57.359 --> 01:48:01.000 Say you got to actually, you know, count everything within 1967 01:48:01.520 --> 01:48:03.720 that space. You can't pull things out of that floor 1968 01:48:04.119 --> 01:48:07.199 or exclude things from that floor and by default sort 1969 01:48:07.239 --> 01:48:10.479 of create these unvoted tax increases on the people of Ohio. 1970 01:48:11.000 --> 01:48:14.479 All right, and onto then Item number three, the school 1971 01:48:14.520 --> 01:48:17.359 district property tax levy restrictions. 1972 01:48:18.680 --> 01:48:20.600 Yeah, so this is something we've worked on for a while. 1973 01:48:20.760 --> 01:48:23.239 And what this would get to is it would limit 1974 01:48:23.319 --> 01:48:26.079 the types of property taxes that school districts could levy, 1975 01:48:26.079 --> 01:48:27.920 and so right now they can levy have a leave nine. 1976 01:48:29.119 --> 01:48:31.039 There are nine types of property taxes that can be 1977 01:48:31.159 --> 01:48:33.399 levied in the state of Ohio. The one I would 1978 01:48:33.399 --> 01:48:36.600 point to just makes the most sense to me. Here 1979 01:48:37.159 --> 01:48:39.399 is the difference between a replacement and a renewal levee, 1980 01:48:40.079 --> 01:48:43.520 And so to me, Brian, that sounds about the same, right, 1981 01:48:43.680 --> 01:48:46.800 Replacing and renewing something almost similar. 1982 01:48:46.840 --> 01:48:49.039 It's what we find from voters. But a renewal would 1983 01:48:49.039 --> 01:48:52.399 be a renewal of a previously set amount. A replacement 1984 01:48:52.520 --> 01:48:54.800 might suggest that they're asking for it, you know, getting 1985 01:48:54.880 --> 01:48:56.560 rid of the prior one, but asking for more. 1986 01:48:57.880 --> 01:49:01.159 That's it thing, go, that's the idea, And so we 1987 01:49:01.319 --> 01:49:03.199 just want to clarify that language. You can go ask 1988 01:49:03.279 --> 01:49:06.800 for more money, but do it by saying you're going 1989 01:49:06.880 --> 01:49:09.039 to ask for more money if you want to renew 1990 01:49:09.159 --> 01:49:13.079 existing millage, renew existing millage and still collect the same 1991 01:49:13.119 --> 01:49:15.640 amount of tax dollars from your tax base that you 1992 01:49:15.720 --> 01:49:18.479 were looking for. It's simple stuff that brings transparency and 1993 01:49:18.520 --> 01:49:22.319 confidence doesn't provide immediate relief, right, but is part of 1994 01:49:22.399 --> 01:49:25.720 the push to structurally reform the system, which we need 1995 01:49:25.800 --> 01:49:28.880 to do in addition to delivering some of that immediate relief, 1996 01:49:28.920 --> 01:49:32.239 which is still a work in progress. 1997 01:49:31.880 --> 01:49:33.000 As they move through the session. 1998 01:49:33.239 --> 01:49:37.520 Yeah, these are baby steps, but at least important baby steps, 1999 01:49:37.560 --> 01:49:39.760 and going in the right direction for the purpose of 2000 01:49:39.840 --> 01:49:42.479 tax relief as opposed to the potential of our taxes 2001 01:49:42.560 --> 01:49:46.520 going up more than they already have. Fair enough, absolutely 2002 01:49:47.039 --> 01:49:50.039 well call to action from Americans for prosperity from a 2003 01:49:50.119 --> 01:49:53.039 listening audience, I'm guessing it involves getting touch with your 2004 01:49:53.399 --> 01:49:54.880 representatives and your senators. 2005 01:49:56.000 --> 01:49:56.840 It always does. 2006 01:49:57.000 --> 01:49:59.640 I think they're hearing it loud and clear, but it's 2007 01:49:59.680 --> 01:50:02.039 important and to have your message heard, share your voice, 2008 01:50:02.600 --> 01:50:05.000 contact your state rep, your state center. It's going to 2009 01:50:05.039 --> 01:50:07.039 start in the House of Representatives. They got to do 2010 01:50:07.119 --> 01:50:10.039 the first vote, sixty votes. It'll go to the Senate 2011 01:50:10.560 --> 01:50:12.680 they can override, and then we've got some of this 2012 01:50:12.800 --> 01:50:15.000 relief and some of these reforms put back into place 2013 01:50:15.079 --> 01:50:16.279 after the governor vetoed them. 2014 01:50:16.479 --> 01:50:19.199 Considering all the legwork that's been done up to getting 2015 01:50:19.239 --> 01:50:22.159 these items incorporated into the budget, only to be vetoed 2016 01:50:22.159 --> 01:50:24.680 by the wine. You feel pretty confident they'll they'll they 2017 01:50:24.800 --> 01:50:26.439 have the votes to override the vetos. 2018 01:50:27.680 --> 01:50:28.039 I think so. 2019 01:50:28.159 --> 01:50:33.079 And it's not unprecedented. The legislature overwrites the governor somewhat frequently. 2020 01:50:33.079 --> 01:50:35.960 I don't have the exact numbers, but this, this isn't unprecedented. 2021 01:50:36.079 --> 01:50:39.479 These are very popular ideas, again, highly vetted ideas. I 2022 01:50:39.560 --> 01:50:42.079 think we're going to see sixty plus those might even 2023 01:50:42.119 --> 01:50:45.199 see some crossover from our friends in the Democrat caucus. 2024 01:50:45.439 --> 01:50:47.800 We're going to spend the next week or so, you know, 2025 01:50:48.000 --> 01:50:50.159 doing events and connecting with folks and trying to understand 2026 01:50:50.159 --> 01:50:52.840 where members are. And if there's anyone who's squishy or squeamish, 2027 01:50:53.439 --> 01:50:55.199 you know what we'll do, broom back in the line 2028 01:50:55.239 --> 01:50:57.119 and rushers pressures applied. 2029 01:50:57.680 --> 01:50:57.840 Well. 2030 01:50:57.960 --> 01:51:00.520 I suspect to the extent there's any opposition this because 2031 01:51:00.600 --> 01:51:03.520 property taxes are paid by people of all political stripes, 2032 01:51:03.880 --> 01:51:06.439 probably the teachers unions trying to protect their turf and 2033 01:51:06.479 --> 01:51:08.239 get as much money as they possibly can from the 2034 01:51:08.279 --> 01:51:08.800 tax payer. 2035 01:51:09.960 --> 01:51:13.560 It is the only corners of Capitol Square where there 2036 01:51:13.720 --> 01:51:16.359 is opposition to any reform, which is baffling to me 2037 01:51:16.520 --> 01:51:20.039 knowing that that property tax ballot initiative is a sort 2038 01:51:20.079 --> 01:51:21.840 of damocles hanging over their head. 2039 01:51:21.880 --> 01:51:23.640 Yeah, that's the nuclear option here. 2040 01:51:23.880 --> 01:51:27.720 It is these types of reforms, you know, to our 2041 01:51:27.760 --> 01:51:31.119 friends who want to see big government grow, these types 2042 01:51:31.119 --> 01:51:33.319 of reforms can provide at least some release valve for 2043 01:51:33.439 --> 01:51:37.279 folks who are feeling pain in their property taxes. Vetoing 2044 01:51:37.359 --> 01:51:40.279 these just puts more fuel on the fire. And look, 2045 01:51:40.319 --> 01:51:41.960 we got to make some big changes in the state. 2046 01:51:42.239 --> 01:51:42.800 I'm all for it. 2047 01:51:44.039 --> 01:51:48.000 It is that property tax bill is looming large in 2048 01:51:48.079 --> 01:51:51.279 the background on this, of course, lighting a fire under 2049 01:51:51.319 --> 01:51:53.680 the folks in Columbus to actually do something, which they 2050 01:51:53.800 --> 01:51:56.920 tried in the bill, but along came Governor to whine. 2051 01:51:57.600 --> 01:51:59.640 Donovan and Neil Americans for prosperity. Thanks for all that 2052 01:51:59.640 --> 01:52:01.880 you do, behalf of the Ohio taxpayer. I'll look forward 2053 01:52:01.880 --> 01:52:04.039 to talking with you again next week. Have a fantastic 2054 01:52:04.159 --> 01:52:05.039 balance of the week. 2055 01:52:04.960 --> 01:52:07.079 My friend.

Joining the fifty 2086 01:53:44.520 --> 01:53:48.159 five Carscy Morning Show. Founding partner of Dan Law Law Firm, 2087 01:53:48.279 --> 01:53:50.279 d A N N L A W.

Welcome to the fifty 2090 01:53:57.039 --> 01:53:59.319 five Carson Morning Show founding partner, Mark Dan. It is 2091 01:53:59.359 --> 01:54:00.840 a pleasure to have you on today. 2092 01:54:02.239 --> 01:54:03.039 Thank you for having me. 2093 01:54:03.159 --> 01:54:06.600 I think he missed a veto of one important thing. Unfortunately, 2094 01:54:07.960 --> 01:54:10.920 what was that? I'm sorry, I think the governor missed 2095 01:54:10.920 --> 01:54:12.600 a veto of the one important thing. 2096 01:54:13.760 --> 01:54:17.039 I said, you're right, it's the most frustrating thing. 2097 01:54:17.159 --> 01:54:19.640 I was very frustrated because we were talking about the 2098 01:54:19.760 --> 01:54:23.399 hopeful property relief measures that he vetoed. Is like everything 2099 01:54:23.439 --> 01:54:25.039 they had to do with us taking a step toward 2100 01:54:25.039 --> 01:54:28.640 providing homeowners with property relief. He vetoed does, but he 2101 01:54:28.800 --> 01:54:32.279 left in there a six hundred million dollar gift to 2102 01:54:32.399 --> 01:54:35.760 a privately owned sports club known as the Cleveland Browns. 2103 01:54:36.239 --> 01:54:38.920 And really that irks me to know and mark as 2104 01:54:38.960 --> 01:54:41.359 a fundamental ethical moral principle. 2105 01:54:41.520 --> 01:54:42.680 It is just wrong. 2106 01:54:43.159 --> 01:54:45.520 It was worse when the House version came out because 2107 01:54:45.560 --> 01:54:47.640 they were going to actually borrow go into a debt 2108 01:54:47.720 --> 01:54:49.720 six hundred million dollars. I have to pay debt service 2109 01:54:49.800 --> 01:54:52.359 on it to the tune of about a billion total dollars. 2110 01:54:52.880 --> 01:54:53.520 That was bad. 2111 01:54:53.600 --> 01:54:55.720 But then the Senate decides, well, you know what, we 2112 01:54:55.840 --> 01:54:59.119 got this four point eight billion dollar unclaimed funds account. 2113 01:54:59.359 --> 01:55:01.920 Nobody's going on after that money. We don't have to borrow. 2114 01:55:02.039 --> 01:55:04.079 Let's just take it out of that and give it 2115 01:55:04.159 --> 01:55:04.800 to the Browns. 2116 01:55:05.119 --> 01:55:07.319 Doesn't solve the problems that I have from an ethical 2117 01:55:07.399 --> 01:55:10.119 moral standpoint on the proper role of government, but at 2118 01:55:10.199 --> 01:55:12.079 least it didn't sound as bad as. 2119 01:55:12.119 --> 01:55:16.840 Borrowing the money. So you have filed a lawsuit and 2120 01:55:16.960 --> 01:55:18.079 you have claimed. 2121 01:55:17.680 --> 01:55:21.640 That I actually think it's even worse than borrowing the money, 2122 01:55:21.760 --> 01:55:28.600 because in a multitude of ways, it's an unconstitutional taking 2123 01:55:28.800 --> 01:55:32.760 of the property of people whose money, our moneys are 2124 01:55:32.800 --> 01:55:36.000 in that fund. I mean people in Ohio. Actually, there's 2125 01:55:36.039 --> 01:55:38.760 people throughout the world that have money in Ohio's Unclaim 2126 01:55:39.600 --> 01:55:40.359 funds account. 2127 01:55:40.960 --> 01:55:44.199 And it is not the state's money. It is our money. 2128 01:55:44.319 --> 01:55:47.880 It is individuals money who have not yet been able 2129 01:55:47.960 --> 01:55:50.359 to liberate it from that fund. And liberating it from 2130 01:55:50.359 --> 01:55:54.600 the fund is difficult if anybody's ever tried. But it's 2131 01:55:54.640 --> 01:56:00.319 an unconstitutional taking. The process by which they're going to 2132 01:56:00.359 --> 01:56:03.359 take it to lacks any due process of law, any 2133 01:56:04.199 --> 01:56:07.119 serious notice to the people who have money in that 2134 01:56:07.279 --> 01:56:10.159 fund that they're taking it and it's going to be 2135 01:56:10.199 --> 01:56:13.319 converted from their property on January first to twenty twenty 2136 01:56:13.399 --> 01:56:18.000 six to the state's property. And all the bill provides 2137 01:56:18.079 --> 01:56:20.720 is a promise that if they make a claim later 2138 01:56:20.880 --> 01:56:22.840 that the state will pay it. I promise they can 2139 01:56:22.920 --> 01:56:25.720 be broken by a politician down the road. 2140 01:56:25.800 --> 01:56:28.159 Well clearly, and that payment will be based on would 2141 01:56:28.159 --> 01:56:30.880 be a taxpayer burden payment, because of course the state 2142 01:56:30.920 --> 01:56:33.199 doesn't generate income itself, it takes it from. 2143 01:56:33.159 --> 01:56:35.720 Us, right, that's correct. 2144 01:56:36.159 --> 01:56:39.840 And again, you know it's if you've ever borrowed money 2145 01:56:39.840 --> 01:56:43.079 from a friend or a relative, you know, even with 2146 01:56:43.159 --> 01:56:45.199 the best of intentions, they don't always pay you back. 2147 01:56:46.359 --> 01:56:48.319 Isn't that true. That's why you never loan money to 2148 01:56:48.359 --> 01:56:52.560 friends and relatives, Mark Dan exactly. Now, my understanding is 2149 01:56:52.840 --> 01:56:56.960 prior to the budget bill passing that the law was 2150 01:56:57.119 --> 01:56:59.640 very clear on this that that money was not available 2151 01:56:59.720 --> 01:57:02.159 for the used by our elected officials for any project 2152 01:57:02.199 --> 01:57:05.000 at all, but did not the budget bill contain a 2153 01:57:05.119 --> 01:57:08.439 revision to that to say after ten years, if unclaimed, 2154 01:57:08.560 --> 01:57:11.039 we're free to take it or amsing am I missing 2155 01:57:11.119 --> 01:57:11.600 some element. 2156 01:57:12.720 --> 01:57:13.680 Well, it's more than that. 2157 01:57:14.800 --> 01:57:17.960 They're going to take one point seven billion dollars out 2158 01:57:18.000 --> 01:57:20.800 of that fund on January first, twenty twenty six, and 2159 01:57:20.920 --> 01:57:23.479 that will become the property of the state. What they're 2160 01:57:23.520 --> 01:57:26.760 saying is that after ten years, the state will have 2161 01:57:27.720 --> 01:57:29.840 even if there's no money. If there's no money left 2162 01:57:29.880 --> 01:57:31.840 in the fund, the state will have no obligation to 2163 01:57:31.920 --> 01:57:35.279 pay you that money back. So you're out of luck 2164 01:57:35.920 --> 01:57:39.000 after ten years. And there's money in there. I talked 2165 01:57:39.039 --> 01:57:43.319 to a guy in Finley yesterday. It's got fourteen thousand 2166 01:57:43.399 --> 01:57:46.159 dollars in there. They misspelled his name when they entered 2167 01:57:46.199 --> 01:57:49.000 it in the database. He's been trying for ten years, 2168 01:57:49.319 --> 01:57:51.600 and that money's been in there for twenty years. He's 2169 01:57:51.640 --> 01:57:53.520 been trying for ten years to get it out of there, 2170 01:57:54.239 --> 01:57:57.600 and they won't back down because they mistook an M 2171 01:57:57.760 --> 01:57:59.960 for an N in his last name. Oh my god, 2172 01:58:00.239 --> 01:58:02.239 and can't get that get that money out. I spoke 2173 01:58:02.279 --> 01:58:06.760 to a woman in Columbus yesterday who has money in 2174 01:58:06.800 --> 01:58:09.920 there that went from an insurance company just last October, 2175 01:58:11.119 --> 01:58:14.199 and they in the in What the folks at the 2176 01:58:14.359 --> 01:58:17.880 Unclaimed Funds office told her is that they were updating 2177 01:58:17.920 --> 01:58:22.119 their software and they haven't entered any any new entries 2178 01:58:22.279 --> 01:58:25.960 since October. And so that's and and that's seven thousand dollars, 2179 01:58:26.000 --> 01:58:28.039 which is a lot of money in her situation and 2180 01:58:28.439 --> 01:58:32.720 life insurance proceeds that you desperately need and uh and 2181 01:58:33.000 --> 01:58:35.840 and you got bills to pay, and and they they 2182 01:58:35.920 --> 01:58:38.880 can't they can't verify it because they never entered it 2183 01:58:38.960 --> 01:58:39.800 into their system. 2184 01:58:40.319 --> 01:58:41.760 So she can't get that money out. 2185 01:58:41.840 --> 01:58:44.920 So it's it is it is it is not you 2186 01:58:45.000 --> 01:58:47.600 know again, it's it's not a great system to begin with. 2187 01:58:48.239 --> 01:58:50.800 There's no actual notice given to the people that have 2188 01:58:50.920 --> 01:58:53.920 money in that fund, and and now they want to 2189 01:58:53.960 --> 01:58:56.439 take it without without paying them for it. 2190 01:58:56.640 --> 01:58:58.199 And that's just not right, you know. 2191 01:58:58.279 --> 01:59:01.119 I had it's rather comical side note on that point, 2192 01:59:01.199 --> 01:59:04.960 Mark Dan that the idea, this six hundred million dollar 2193 01:59:05.119 --> 01:59:09.159 concept that we're also incensed about, has given people a 2194 01:59:09.359 --> 01:59:12.920 broad awareness that there is in fact an unclaim funds 2195 01:59:13.039 --> 01:59:15.319 pile of money, and people are now going to the 2196 01:59:15.359 --> 01:59:17.319 website and trying to make claims on him. My executive 2197 01:59:17.319 --> 01:59:19.720 producer put his name in. He got twenty dollars back 2198 01:59:19.760 --> 01:59:24.199 that was in there. He got some sort yeah. 2199 01:59:24.239 --> 01:59:26.520 No good, yeah, good for him, And there's there's settlements 2200 01:59:26.560 --> 01:59:30.039 in there there there twenty years ago or so, a 2201 01:59:30.119 --> 01:59:33.279 lot of insurance companies were mutual insurance companies and they 2202 01:59:33.319 --> 01:59:38.960 became stock insurance companies and all the mutual beneficiaries who 2203 01:59:39.039 --> 01:59:41.319 they couldn't find, they threw the money in the in 2204 01:59:41.399 --> 01:59:44.840 the unclaimed funds. A few years ago there was an 2205 01:59:44.960 --> 01:59:47.640 order for life insurance companies to not hold on to 2206 01:59:47.800 --> 01:59:49.920 unclaim benefits, but they have to. 2207 01:59:49.960 --> 01:59:50.880 Put those in that fund. 2208 01:59:50.920 --> 01:59:52.760 And so there's millions and millions of dollars of that 2209 01:59:53.520 --> 01:59:58.079 Pace Bank, you know, was headquartered in Columbus for a 2210 01:59:58.159 --> 02:00:02.000 long time, and they funds from all of their accounts 2211 02:00:02.039 --> 02:00:07.039 all over the world that were unclaimed went into that fund. 2212 02:00:07.119 --> 02:00:09.760 So there's people all over the not just in Ohio 2213 02:00:10.560 --> 02:00:13.119 that don't have access to it. And now setting aside 2214 02:00:13.159 --> 02:00:16.840 the fact that we're taking you know, grandma's money from 2215 02:00:16.880 --> 02:00:20.439 a life insurance policy that Grandpa paid for to give 2216 02:00:20.560 --> 02:00:23.640 six hundred billion dollars to a billionaire for his own 2217 02:00:23.720 --> 02:00:28.000 private interest of building a stadium that's going to only 2218 02:00:28.079 --> 02:00:31.560 benefit him and frankly cost those of us who are 2219 02:00:31.560 --> 02:00:34.479 seeing ticket holders of the Browns more money because they're 2220 02:00:34.479 --> 02:00:36.880 going to charge us seat licenses and other things as well. 2221 02:00:39.439 --> 02:00:43.279 That's outrageous enough that they're taking that, they're giving money 2222 02:00:43.359 --> 02:00:46.840 to a billionaire for his private interests, but it's also 2223 02:00:47.000 --> 02:00:52.039 unconstitutional because the government can't take your stuff or a 2224 02:00:52.239 --> 02:00:56.199 private company. They can only take it for a public purpose. So, 2225 02:00:56.800 --> 02:00:59.199 I mean, there's just a whole list of reasonces is 2226 02:00:59.239 --> 02:01:03.239 on constitution. They're taking the money for a private, private purpose. 2227 02:01:03.520 --> 02:01:06.359 They're they're they're not providing due process of law to 2228 02:01:06.439 --> 02:01:10.000 people to claim it, they're not paying compensation, and uh, 2229 02:01:10.720 --> 02:01:15.159 apropoda your earlier conversation. The the uh this is, this 2230 02:01:15.359 --> 02:01:18.680 is not related to the budget, and it was passed 2231 02:01:18.720 --> 02:01:22.640 in a budget. Billy and Ohio's constitution clearly says that 2232 02:01:23.039 --> 02:01:25.520 each bill needs to have a separate title, and a 2233 02:01:25.640 --> 02:01:30.319 separate debate and a separate vote each each each separate subject. 2234 02:01:30.520 --> 02:01:33.800 It's called a single subject rule. So uh, for for 2235 02:01:34.000 --> 02:01:37.680 a completely different reason, this enactment is unconstitutional. 2236 02:01:39.000 --> 02:01:42.000 Well, you're making great argument, sounds to me. Mark Dan 2237 02:01:42.119 --> 02:01:44.279 of the Dan Law Firm d A N N l 2238 02:01:44.359 --> 02:01:46.159 A W dot com is where you find Mark and 2239 02:01:46.239 --> 02:01:49.680 his team. I guess I'm i sort of out loud, 2240 02:01:49.760 --> 02:01:52.680 wondering where a Hio attorney Donal David Yost is on this. 2241 02:01:52.920 --> 02:01:55.359 Isn't this something that he should be raising by way 2242 02:01:55.399 --> 02:01:57.520 of legal challenge, given that's given his role. 2243 02:01:59.319 --> 02:02:02.279 Well, that's right. Well it's interesting because he's we actually 2244 02:02:02.279 --> 02:02:05.680 attached the copy of his letter to the governor urging 2245 02:02:05.760 --> 02:02:08.840 him to veto this bad bill, this bad piece of 2246 02:02:08.920 --> 02:02:14.560 legislation to our complaint. Uh, and he's charged with defending 2247 02:02:14.600 --> 02:02:16.439 the state. I'm not sure he doesn't have a conflict 2248 02:02:16.479 --> 02:02:17.000 at this point. 2249 02:02:17.159 --> 02:02:17.520 I agree. 2250 02:02:17.520 --> 02:02:20.560 So what he said, he's talked out of both sides 2251 02:02:20.560 --> 02:02:24.439 of his mouth, shocking for an elected official. On one 2252 02:02:24.520 --> 02:02:26.159 side he said this is a terrible idea, and the 2253 02:02:26.199 --> 02:02:29.680 other said that he said, I think it's defensible constitutionally. Well, 2254 02:02:30.039 --> 02:02:30.840 we're going to find out. 2255 02:02:30.920 --> 02:02:31.520 We're going to let a. 2256 02:02:31.560 --> 02:02:32.359 Judge decide that. 2257 02:02:33.920 --> 02:02:34.600 I disagree. 2258 02:02:34.680 --> 02:02:36.239 I had his job at one time. 2259 02:02:36.319 --> 02:02:37.399 I was the attorney general. 2260 02:02:38.199 --> 02:02:41.079 And you represent not You don't represent the governor. 2261 02:02:41.079 --> 02:02:42.119 When you're attorney general. 2262 02:02:42.439 --> 02:02:45.159 You are a representative of the state, right and so 2263 02:02:45.359 --> 02:02:47.800 you have to make sometimes have to make some hard calls. 2264 02:02:47.840 --> 02:02:49.279 I mean, if he wants to get the governor his 2265 02:02:49.359 --> 02:02:52.880 own lawyer to defend this, this or the or this 2266 02:02:53.039 --> 02:02:55.640 Partner of Commerce and the and the legislature of their 2267 02:02:55.680 --> 02:02:59.399 own lawyer to defend this unconstitutional enactment, you. 2268 02:02:59.439 --> 02:03:01.199 Know he should probably do that. 2269 02:03:01.479 --> 02:03:03.720 I wouldn't have I wouldn't defend this if I were 2270 02:03:03.760 --> 02:03:04.920 the attorney general of the state. 2271 02:03:05.319 --> 02:03:05.600 Okay. 2272 02:03:05.720 --> 02:03:07.479 So the fund amount of point here is, and you 2273 02:03:07.560 --> 02:03:10.239 make a good argument, and there's like mountains of case 2274 02:03:10.359 --> 02:03:13.600 law on the idea that governments can't take property without 2275 02:03:14.079 --> 02:03:16.920 at least to give it to private individuals. I mean, 2276 02:03:17.000 --> 02:03:19.439 there's all been all kinds of case law on confiscating 2277 02:03:19.479 --> 02:03:21.640 property for the greater good. You have to be paid 2278 02:03:21.680 --> 02:03:23.000 for it, though, like if they want to build a 2279 02:03:23.079 --> 02:03:26.079 park or right something along those lines. So that I 2280 02:03:26.119 --> 02:03:30.119 guess the point to that is, even though the budget changed, 2281 02:03:30.600 --> 02:03:33.399 the law and put this permanent achievement provision in there 2282 02:03:33.439 --> 02:03:35.920 saying after ten years or whatever, this is our money. 2283 02:03:35.920 --> 02:03:38.159 Of the one point seven billions is our money that 2284 02:03:38.279 --> 02:03:41.960 does not override constitutional principles. Is what you're found is 2285 02:03:42.000 --> 02:03:43.199 the foundation of your lawsuit. 2286 02:03:44.560 --> 02:03:45.399 That's that's correct. 2287 02:03:46.079 --> 02:03:49.279 Laws have to look a governor and the members of 2288 02:03:49.319 --> 02:03:52.159 legislatures swore an oath to the content follow the Constitution, 2289 02:03:52.359 --> 02:03:55.560 and they didn't do that, and so we think the 2290 02:03:55.640 --> 02:03:57.640 courts will hold them accountable for that. 2291 02:03:58.720 --> 02:04:03.520 So now who's going to answer them half of the state, Well, we. 2292 02:04:03.640 --> 02:04:06.319 Serve the state, and the Attorney General represents the state. 2293 02:04:06.439 --> 02:04:09.600 The Attorney General can decide that they that they're conflicted 2294 02:04:10.479 --> 02:04:13.079 or that they can't defend something that's unconstitutional, and in 2295 02:04:13.159 --> 02:04:17.079 that case they would have the option of providing separate 2296 02:04:17.680 --> 02:04:21.359 appointed council to to the We've sued the Director of Commerce, 2297 02:04:21.520 --> 02:04:25.239 we've sued the administrator of the fund, We've sued the 2298 02:04:25.279 --> 02:04:28.439 state treasurer uh, and we've sued that they've created already. 2299 02:04:28.479 --> 02:04:31.239 The first day after the budget passed, they created this 2300 02:04:31.399 --> 02:04:34.720 new Facilities Commission, which, by the way, also has the 2301 02:04:34.800 --> 02:04:37.640 capacity to give some money to the to another billionaire 2302 02:04:38.159 --> 02:04:41.560 in Cincinnati for the for the Bengal state. Yeah, and 2303 02:04:41.720 --> 02:04:44.279 to the and to the and to another billionaire for 2304 02:04:44.600 --> 02:04:48.159 improvements to the Red Stadium. So that that that that 2305 02:04:48.279 --> 02:04:51.119 committee already been already been constituted. 2306 02:04:51.880 --> 02:04:54.079 Well, hopefully you prevail on your lawsuit and we can 2307 02:04:54.119 --> 02:04:56.800 stop that from happening. That's a real source spot for 2308 02:04:56.840 --> 02:04:59.279 a lot of Hamilton County residents, my friend, a very 2309 02:04:59.520 --> 02:05:02.520 very sore spot. Well, i'll tell you what, it has 2310 02:05:02.560 --> 02:05:04.279 been a pleasure talking with me, Mark Dan. I wish 2311 02:05:04.319 --> 02:05:06.479 you all the best on the lawsuit. And I suppose, 2312 02:05:07.039 --> 02:05:09.439 uh what thirty days to answer otherwise? Please, then you 2313 02:05:09.520 --> 02:05:11.319 move for summary judgment right out of the gate. 2314 02:05:11.279 --> 02:05:14.119 Right right, Well, we're going to move for a preliminary 2315 02:05:14.239 --> 02:05:16.000 junction because we want to make sure that money doesn't 2316 02:05:16.039 --> 02:05:19.319 move anyuary first and then and then and then they'lp. 2317 02:05:19.640 --> 02:05:21.960 I expect they'll answer with emotion to dismiss. 2318 02:05:22.039 --> 02:05:23.720 That's what artification is. 2319 02:05:23.920 --> 02:05:24.079 Yeah. 2320 02:05:24.159 --> 02:05:26.319 Well, I practice the cases for sixteen years, so I 2321 02:05:26.439 --> 02:05:28.800 know the process. But I see it. But I do 2322 02:05:28.920 --> 02:05:31.399 see a summary judgment motion looming on the horizon. 2323 02:05:32.199 --> 02:05:32.960 Yeah, that's right. 2324 02:05:33.000 --> 02:05:34.439 It's a purely legal issue, it is. 2325 02:05:34.680 --> 02:05:37.199 And uh and and I think and I don't think 2326 02:05:37.199 --> 02:05:40.279 it's even a close fall. Uh and so we we 2327 02:05:40.479 --> 02:05:42.560 but we shall see. And look, they think they bought 2328 02:05:42.560 --> 02:05:46.720 the OHU Supreme Court. And that's literally what the one 2329 02:05:46.760 --> 02:05:48.920 of the articles that I read yesterday, that's what the 2330 02:05:49.000 --> 02:05:51.520 Senate President said. He goes, well, they may win in 2331 02:05:51.600 --> 02:05:54.439 the lower courts, but you know, we'll we'll, we'll fix 2332 02:05:54.520 --> 02:05:55.520 this in the Supreme Court. 2333 02:05:56.920 --> 02:05:58.560 Oh, I'm sure. 2334 02:05:58.720 --> 02:06:01.119 I'm sure Jimmy Haslam starts to write checks to Supreme 2335 02:06:01.159 --> 02:06:02.279 Court justices already. 2336 02:06:03.800 --> 02:06:05.960 I just wonder what Jimmy Haslam has by way of 2337 02:06:06.039 --> 02:06:09.520 a dirty inside information, because how this got in there 2338 02:06:09.680 --> 02:06:13.359 is still just a puzzle to me.

And I'm also looking forward 2382 02:08:11.359 --> 02:08:13.840 to talking with Judge and Polatano. And I loved talking 2383 02:08:13.960 --> 02:08:17.960 with the special edition of Tech Friday Tech Tuesday, which 2384 02:08:18.039 --> 02:08:19.880 you can get on my blog page fifty five KRC 2385 02:08:20.039 --> 02:08:22.880 dot com. Dave Hatter helping us out to avoid scams 2386 02:08:23.000 --> 02:08:27.000 on Amazon Prime Days. But something he's warned about us 2387 02:08:27.239 --> 02:08:30.079 many many times on Tech Friday, the idea of using 2388 02:08:30.199 --> 02:08:35.199 artificial intelligence generated voice. It's gotten so good that a 2389 02:08:35.279 --> 02:08:37.239 little sample of your voice. You know, this kind of 2390 02:08:37.279 --> 02:08:38.920 thing worries me because I talk on the radio for 2391 02:08:39.000 --> 02:08:39.840 four hours every day. 2392 02:08:39.920 --> 02:08:41.920 But Neil, it is what it is. It's the world 2393 02:08:42.000 --> 02:08:42.439 we live in. 2394 02:08:42.920 --> 02:08:44.880 They just clone your voice and it sounds just like you, 2395 02:08:45.800 --> 02:08:47.840 and so real life illustration to this all the way 2396 02:08:47.920 --> 02:08:51.720 up to US Secretary of State Marco Rubio. Apparently, an 2397 02:08:51.760 --> 02:08:55.279 individual posing as Rubio used AI generated voice make it 2398 02:08:55.359 --> 02:08:57.640 sound like him to call a bunch of high level 2399 02:08:57.680 --> 02:09:00.960 officials in an attempt to manipulate them to obtain access 2400 02:09:01.560 --> 02:09:05.800 to information or accounts or and or accounts. Still unknown 2401 02:09:05.800 --> 02:09:08.800 who this person is so far reportedly contacted at least 2402 02:09:08.880 --> 02:09:12.880 five government officials, three foreign ministers, one US governor, and 2403 02:09:13.000 --> 02:09:15.640 one member of Congress. This according to a cable issued 2404 02:09:15.680 --> 02:09:19.159 from the State Department Washington Post providing the details on 2405 02:09:19.279 --> 02:09:21.960 this The individual haven't yet been able to identify him 2406 02:09:22.119 --> 02:09:25.079 or her reportedly used AI software to send the government 2407 02:09:25.079 --> 02:09:28.840 officials text messages that mimicked his voice and writing style. 2408 02:09:29.760 --> 02:09:31.960 They believe the impostor is likely trying to manipulate these 2409 02:09:32.000 --> 02:09:35.079 officials with the goal of gaining access again to information 2410 02:09:35.239 --> 02:09:39.199 and or accounts. An individual reportly began using the impersonation 2411 02:09:39.279 --> 02:09:43.159 attempts back in mid June, using both text messaging and 2412 02:09:43.479 --> 02:09:49.920 messaging and encrypted messaging under signal. That's the app under 2413 02:09:49.920 --> 02:09:52.920 the display name Marco dot Rubio at State dot Gov, 2414 02:09:53.520 --> 02:09:58.039 which happens to not be his real email address. Sure 2415 02:09:58.079 --> 02:09:59.800 does look official, though when it's got a State dot 2416 02:09:59.840 --> 02:10:03.000 gog after it doesn't it. Accord to the memo the cable, 2417 02:10:03.119 --> 02:10:05.760 the actor left voicemails on signal for at least two 2418 02:10:05.800 --> 02:10:09.640 targeted individuals in one instant sent a text message inviting 2419 02:10:09.680 --> 02:10:13.000 the individual to communicate on signal. It's not known whether 2420 02:10:13.039 --> 02:10:16.880 any of these officials actually responded to the impostor, but 2421 02:10:18.399 --> 02:10:21.840 the cable from the State Department reveals also that other 2422 02:10:21.960 --> 02:10:26.920 US State Department employees were impersonated with fake email addresses. 2423 02:10:29.359 --> 02:10:31.520 State Department told the Washington Posts will carry out a 2424 02:10:31.560 --> 02:10:34.840 thorough investigation and continue to implement safeguards to prevent this 2425 02:10:35.039 --> 02:10:37.239 from happening in the future. Didn't disclose the names of 2426 02:10:37.239 --> 02:10:40.399 the government officials who were contacted, nor the content of 2427 02:10:40.439 --> 02:10:44.840 the fake messages sent. It's the painful, stark reminder that 2428 02:10:44.960 --> 02:10:46.640 no one is immune from this kind of thing. 2429 02:10:46.800 --> 02:10:47.560 It's easy to do. 2430 02:10:47.800 --> 02:10:51.840 AI is everywhere, so one more reason to be jaded 2431 02:10:51.920 --> 02:10:54.159 and cynical, even if you think you're talking to your 2432 02:10:54.520 --> 02:10:58.000 best friend or your son on the phone. Frightening stuff 2433 02:10:58.920 --> 02:11:01.600 A twenty five right now fifty five KRC the talk 2434 02:11:01.680 --> 02:11:05.600 station Judge Innedapoltano. Next, let me first mention a really peaceful, tranquil, 2435 02:11:05.720 --> 02:11:08.880 calm place to be, and that is a Gate of 2436 02:11:08.920 --> 02:11:11.800 Heaven Catholic Cemetery right there on Montgomery Road, just north 2437 02:11:11.880 --> 02:11:15.800 of a two seventy five Montgomery intersection. It's just an epic, 2438 02:11:15.840 --> 02:11:18.600 beautiful place, a place for reflection, a place for prayer, 2439 02:11:19.319 --> 02:11:21.560 a place to honor life on sacred ground. And that's 2440 02:11:21.600 --> 02:11:23.880 all stages of life. It's not just you know, visiting 2441 02:11:24.000 --> 02:11:25.960 loved ones who happen to be buried there, but it's 2442 02:11:26.399 --> 02:11:29.000 contemplating the importance and meaning of life. You know, get 2443 02:11:29.039 --> 02:11:32.199 away from it all and enjoy these surroundings. It's a sanctuary. 2444 02:11:32.800 --> 02:11:37.119 It's there for prayer, healing and honoring the legacy of life. 2445 02:11:37.800 --> 02:11:39.439 So take them up on their off or visit Gate 2446 02:11:39.479 --> 02:11:42.119 of Heaven Cemetery. Everybody's welcome. Go to Gate of Heaven 2447 02:11:42.199 --> 02:11:44.960 dot org to learn more. That's Gate of Heaven dot org. 2448 02:11:45.800 --> 02:11:48.640 Fifty five car the talk station. 2449 02:11:49.119 --> 02:11:52.399 This is Greg Shzinski of the original Mattress Factory Dish 2450 02:11:52.439 --> 02:11:54.399 I have eight thirty one fifty five krc DE talk station. 2451 02:11:56.920 --> 02:11:58.079 Chuck Ingram's on vacation. 2452 02:11:58.279 --> 02:12:01.199 Judge Jennitapolitana, Heather didn't do it personalized message for you 2453 02:12:01.279 --> 02:12:01.880 today because she. 2454 02:12:03.760 --> 02:12:05.479 She's filling in, So. 2455 02:12:05.640 --> 02:12:09.399 My stomach was cherning, not knowing what to expect. Instead 2456 02:12:09.439 --> 02:12:12.000 of a madman, I heard the voice of a lovely lady. 2457 02:12:12.359 --> 02:12:14.760 Yeah, and apparently, you know, like Chuck Ingram does the 2458 02:12:14.800 --> 02:12:17.640 traffic for like the entire United States, I'm overstating the case, 2459 02:12:17.680 --> 02:12:19.439 but he does lots of the city. She apparently is 2460 02:12:19.560 --> 02:12:23.359 in Detroit, so she is not closely following the content 2461 02:12:23.399 --> 02:12:25.359 of the fifty five Carcey Morning Show, but we do. 2462 02:12:25.600 --> 02:12:28.960 And everybody knows it's appointment listening time on the fifty 2463 02:12:29.000 --> 02:12:31.680 five Carcey Morning Show because Judge Ennital Polatana joins us 2464 02:12:31.720 --> 02:12:34.720 every Wednesday at this time. And I really enjoyed your 2465 02:12:35.079 --> 02:12:37.560 column this morning, so I always enjoy your column, you know, 2466 02:12:37.640 --> 02:12:40.399 I love it. Searching for Monsters is the title, but 2467 02:12:40.520 --> 02:12:43.039 it involves a subject matter over which I really didn't 2468 02:12:43.119 --> 02:12:46.319 have a whole lot of knowledge and familiarity. And that's 2469 02:12:46.880 --> 02:12:49.600 the whether it's lawful or not for us to go 2470 02:12:49.720 --> 02:12:53.399 to some foreign country and kidnap someone. And I know 2471 02:12:53.520 --> 02:12:55.359 we've done this before, and you cite a bunch of 2472 02:12:55.439 --> 02:12:59.000 illustrations and it almost seems like and I know it's 2473 02:12:59.039 --> 02:13:01.159 against natural law, and make a great argument that this 2474 02:13:01.319 --> 02:13:04.319 isn't right. But if someone has committed a harm against 2475 02:13:04.359 --> 02:13:07.279 our country, I hear about people fleeing to countries that 2476 02:13:07.399 --> 02:13:10.479 don't have an extradition treaty with the United States. That 2477 02:13:10.600 --> 02:13:12.760 means we can't negotiate with the country to have them 2478 02:13:13.520 --> 02:13:16.800 export the guy and bring him back here. But what 2479 02:13:17.039 --> 02:13:19.479 of going to that country and just picking him up 2480 02:13:19.560 --> 02:13:22.760 and bringing him back. Now, if you got harmed under 2481 02:13:22.800 --> 02:13:25.079 our country, one can make a moral argument that, well, 2482 02:13:25.119 --> 02:13:27.319 that seems okay. They won't extra di iteem because we 2483 02:13:27.319 --> 02:13:29.159 don't have a treaty. But the guy did us harm, 2484 02:13:29.239 --> 02:13:30.640 Let's go pick him up and bring him back and 2485 02:13:30.680 --> 02:13:31.359 put him to trial. 2486 02:13:32.319 --> 02:13:33.399 But as you explain, and. 2487 02:13:33.479 --> 02:13:40.239 This is puzzling to me, crime is committed against someone 2488 02:13:40.560 --> 02:13:44.640 outside of the United States, not against the United States 2489 02:13:44.800 --> 02:13:47.840 or its interest. We can go and grab that person 2490 02:13:48.000 --> 02:13:50.560 and try him in our country for crimes committed against 2491 02:13:50.600 --> 02:13:53.840 some other government or some other outside the United States interest. 2492 02:13:54.399 --> 02:14:00.640 I ask, yes, as absurd as that sounds. And I 2493 02:14:00.760 --> 02:14:03.880 gave an example, and it was the back pages of 2494 02:14:03.960 --> 02:14:06.079 the New York Times. If you didn't know the background, 2495 02:14:06.119 --> 02:14:10.319 you would say, oh, some Venezuela in general just pleaded 2496 02:14:10.359 --> 02:14:13.479 guilty to drug dealing in Manhattan. I'm glad they caught 2497 02:14:13.520 --> 02:14:19.560 the guy. However, he pleaded guilty to distributing drugs in Venezuela, 2498 02:14:20.319 --> 02:14:21.840 not in the United States. 2499 02:14:22.039 --> 02:14:22.279 Yeah. 2500 02:14:22.560 --> 02:14:29.039 He then left Venezuela, retired in Spain. The United States 2501 02:14:29.159 --> 02:14:32.640 tried to extradite in the Spanish courts said no, you 2502 02:14:32.800 --> 02:14:36.159 have no jurisdiction over him, so they kidnapped him. Anyway, 2503 02:14:36.520 --> 02:14:38.720 he shows up in an American court. He says, I 2504 02:14:38.880 --> 02:14:40.760 was kidnapped. The court said, well, I don't care. The 2505 02:14:40.840 --> 02:14:44.439 Feds can kidnap you. He pleads guilty to these crimes 2506 02:14:44.560 --> 02:14:47.520 in Venezuela. So far there is no connection to the 2507 02:14:47.680 --> 02:14:52.159 United States except the Congress enacted in the Biden administration 2508 02:14:52.439 --> 02:14:57.720 legislation telling federal judges, if the FEDS, the FBI, and 2509 02:14:57.960 --> 02:15:01.680 an assistant US attorney walk into your courtroom with a 2510 02:15:01.920 --> 02:15:05.880 human being and an indictment, you have to try that person, 2511 02:15:06.600 --> 02:15:09.359 even at the human beings never been in the United States, 2512 02:15:09.479 --> 02:15:12.239 never harmed a person in the United States, never harmed 2513 02:15:12.319 --> 02:15:16.840 assets in the United States, and all the events took place. 2514 02:15:16.680 --> 02:15:19.119 In another country. Now, why is the government doing this? 2515 02:15:19.279 --> 02:15:24.640 They probably want him to trade information against their real target, 2516 02:15:24.680 --> 02:15:29.079 who's his former boss, Nicholas Maduro, who is the president 2517 02:15:29.199 --> 02:15:36.640 slash dictator of Venezuela. In the meantime, kidnapping, exhaustion of 2518 02:15:36.720 --> 02:15:41.279 a tremendous amount of resources and assets to get this 2519 02:15:41.479 --> 02:15:43.520 guy here, and the use. 2520 02:15:43.439 --> 02:15:44.560 Of the federal courts. 2521 02:15:44.800 --> 02:15:47.520 As a point, this also allows the President of the 2522 02:15:47.640 --> 02:15:51.840 United States, who is the ultimate person running the Department 2523 02:15:51.920 --> 02:15:55.960 of Justice, to pick anybody wants around the world and say, 2524 02:15:56.159 --> 02:15:58.319 indict that guy for some crime he committed in some 2525 02:15:58.439 --> 02:16:00.840 other country and for which he wasn't executed, and get 2526 02:16:00.880 --> 02:16:01.199 him here. 2527 02:16:01.520 --> 02:16:02.600 That's what's happening. 2528 02:16:02.920 --> 02:16:06.399 I don't understand how that represents a judicial controversy in 2529 02:16:06.560 --> 02:16:09.000 a US court. How do you get an indictment against 2530 02:16:09.039 --> 02:16:12.840 someone for a crime committed under somebody of some other 2531 02:16:13.720 --> 02:16:17.760 committed in some other country. Okay, drug trafficking is illegal 2532 02:16:17.880 --> 02:16:21.840 in the United States, but you know that's a US law. 2533 02:16:21.920 --> 02:16:23.239 I don't know what the status of the law is 2534 02:16:23.279 --> 02:16:26.319 in Venezuela. But picking up a guy in Spain for 2535 02:16:26.359 --> 02:16:29.079 a crime he committed in Venezuela in violation of Venezuela 2536 02:16:29.119 --> 02:16:32.000 in law. I mean, I'm just perplexed by this. And 2537 02:16:32.079 --> 02:16:35.360 you pointed out the US Supreme Court does not care 2538 02:16:35.520 --> 02:16:39.200 a wit about what happened behind the scenes as long 2539 02:16:39.239 --> 02:16:41.360 as that person's in front of the court itself. They 2540 02:16:41.360 --> 02:16:43.799 don't care if he was kidnapped or had his due 2541 02:16:43.840 --> 02:16:45.600 process rights violent, or anything else. 2542 02:16:46.200 --> 02:16:50.719 Correct, The Supreme Court does not care how a person 2543 02:16:51.000 --> 02:16:55.159 got into the courtroom. This has been a long standing 2544 02:16:55.879 --> 02:17:00.639 complaint by the natural law libertarian small government people, of 2545 02:17:00.719 --> 02:17:05.319 which you and I are two in American jurisprudence, but 2546 02:17:05.399 --> 02:17:08.799 it's been a consistent understanding of federal courts. The Feds 2547 02:17:08.879 --> 02:17:12.760 can kidnap anybody and bring him into the courtroom, and 2548 02:17:12.920 --> 02:17:17.200 his complaint that I was kidnapped these people violated the 2549 02:17:17.360 --> 02:17:21.239 very laws that they are attempting to enforce. 2550 02:17:22.000 --> 02:17:24.000 Will fall on deaf ears. 2551 02:17:24.319 --> 02:17:28.120 The Feds often commit crimes in order to solve crimes. 2552 02:17:28.239 --> 02:17:28.879 Let's face it. 2553 02:17:29.520 --> 02:17:32.959 The classic case is a federal judge in Denver this 2554 02:17:33.120 --> 02:17:36.520 is now twenty five years ago, tried for bribery, and 2555 02:17:36.799 --> 02:17:40.920 in that case, the Feds bribed a witness to testify 2556 02:17:41.200 --> 02:17:45.079 against him. He was convicted, and the Tenth Circuit overturned it. 2557 02:17:45.159 --> 02:17:47.319 So this stuff happens all the time. 2558 02:17:47.799 --> 02:17:50.799 They almost always get away with it. We'll see where 2559 02:17:50.879 --> 02:17:53.920 the case of this general goes. He's still in Manhattan, 2560 02:17:53.959 --> 02:17:57.000 he's still in a jail here. He's probably trying to 2561 02:17:57.120 --> 02:18:00.360 give them enough information so they'll say to the federal 2562 02:18:00.479 --> 02:18:03.000 judge before whom he pleaded guilty last week. 2563 02:18:03.000 --> 02:18:04.440 And let him go back to Spain. 2564 02:18:05.200 --> 02:18:08.799 Whole thing is a farce. It's an abuse of of 2565 02:18:08.920 --> 02:18:09.719 the rule of law. 2566 02:18:10.000 --> 02:18:12.840 Well, and you raise an excellent point in your uh, 2567 02:18:13.120 --> 02:18:16.040 in your rhetorical question, is it lawful for the Chinese 2568 02:18:16.120 --> 02:18:19.200 government to enter Hawaii and kidnap an American tech executive 2569 02:18:19.239 --> 02:18:22.000 or politician for some crime that they claim has been 2570 02:18:22.040 --> 02:18:25.280 done and violates the US law for example? Right that 2571 02:18:25.440 --> 02:18:27.440 it's just it becomes a question whose ox is being going. 2572 02:18:27.520 --> 02:18:29.799 Oh no, we would screen bloody murder if that happened. 2573 02:18:29.840 --> 02:18:32.520 That what the Chinese kidnap somebody who took him to China. 2574 02:18:34.040 --> 02:18:34.959 This is an outrage. 2575 02:18:35.479 --> 02:18:40.680 You're you're exactly you're exactly right, and and these these 2576 02:18:40.799 --> 02:18:42.959 cases should be on the front page. So that the 2577 02:18:43.200 --> 02:18:45.799 public as has outraged this you and I rather than 2578 02:18:45.879 --> 02:18:48.159 on the back page. And if you read the article, 2579 02:18:48.319 --> 02:18:51.799 not knowing the background, you think, oh, well, they picked 2580 02:18:51.879 --> 02:18:55.280 up another drug trafficker and he's an ex general and blad, it's. 2581 02:18:55.159 --> 02:18:55.760 Going to jail. 2582 02:18:55.920 --> 02:19:00.799 No, he didn't violate any American laws. He probably didn't 2583 02:19:00.840 --> 02:19:06.479 even violate any Venezuelan laws the way they are understood 2584 02:19:06.680 --> 02:19:08.600 and enforced in Venezuela. 2585 02:19:08.840 --> 02:19:10.840 Yeah, and that's what I was alluding to earlier. I 2586 02:19:11.280 --> 02:19:15.079 obviously do not know the state of Venezuelan law. But 2587 02:19:15.239 --> 02:19:17.680 the idea that we were trying a guy for committing crime, 2588 02:19:17.719 --> 02:19:20.440 allegedly committing crimes in Venezuela in a US court, that 2589 02:19:20.520 --> 02:19:23.040 we kidnap I it's I just am sitting here totally 2590 02:19:23.079 --> 02:19:25.040 in sense, in my mind, is blown that that exists. 2591 02:19:25.600 --> 02:19:28.159 It used to be, though there was a limitation. It 2592 02:19:28.319 --> 02:19:30.639 was justified. 2593 02:19:31.879 --> 02:19:36.200 To redress criminal harm actually caused by the kidnapp person 2594 02:19:36.319 --> 02:19:40.680 to an American person or property, or he pointed out 2595 02:19:40.719 --> 02:19:43.559 earlier in the Biden administration. In twenty twenty two, Congress 2596 02:19:43.680 --> 02:19:46.559 extended that authority in federal courts to cover crimes committed 2597 02:19:46.600 --> 02:19:48.600 in foreign countries against foreign persons. 2598 02:19:49.079 --> 02:19:52.120 So there's a law on the books that authorizes this. 2599 02:19:53.000 --> 02:19:57.079 Yes, it not only authorizes it, it tells federal judges 2600 02:19:57.200 --> 02:20:01.280 that Jay, they have jurisdiction under that clause in the 2601 02:20:01.440 --> 02:20:07.799 Constitution that lamentable Jimmy Madison, clause that lets the Congress 2602 02:20:08.000 --> 02:20:13.639 expand or contract federal judicial jurisdiction. They expanded it and 2603 02:20:13.760 --> 02:20:16.639 said you will try it. I would throw it out 2604 02:20:16.680 --> 02:20:18.760 and say it's not just isshable. But that's me And 2605 02:20:19.719 --> 02:20:21.719 I was not a federal judge. I was a state judges, 2606 02:20:21.799 --> 02:20:24.079 you know, And I never had anything like this. This 2607 02:20:24.879 --> 02:20:28.280 stuff is of relatively recent vintage. The statute that I 2608 02:20:28.399 --> 02:20:30.120 cite is only three years old. 2609 02:20:31.680 --> 02:20:31.879 Wow. 2610 02:20:32.399 --> 02:20:37.360 So we've extended federal courts authority over foreign lands and 2611 02:20:37.520 --> 02:20:38.520 over foreign crimes. 2612 02:20:39.120 --> 02:20:39.479 Correct. 2613 02:20:40.079 --> 02:20:40.319 Wow. 2614 02:20:40.440 --> 02:20:44.760 So expect the Feds to pick up a Russian soldier 2615 02:20:44.879 --> 02:20:49.000 who killed a Ukrainian civilian and they'll be tried in 2616 02:20:49.159 --> 02:20:53.159 the Eastern District of Virginia where the Feds never lose, 2617 02:20:53.360 --> 02:20:55.239 and will be sentenced to jail for the rest of 2618 02:20:55.319 --> 02:20:58.440 his life. And then they'll trade him with some American 2619 02:20:58.559 --> 02:21:00.879 basketball player that's an Moscow jail. 2620 02:21:01.280 --> 02:21:01.559 Wow. 2621 02:21:02.360 --> 02:21:05.479 And I presume the CIA the ones responsible for going 2622 02:21:05.520 --> 02:21:07.479 out and doing the kidnapping in most of these cases. 2623 02:21:08.280 --> 02:21:14.559 Sadly, Yes, yes, there are six CIA agents who can't 2624 02:21:14.600 --> 02:21:19.280 go to Europe because a European wide indictment still stands 2625 02:21:19.360 --> 02:21:24.159 for their having kidnapped an Egyptian cleric, brought him to 2626 02:21:24.559 --> 02:21:28.079 Egypt for torture, and then came back. 2627 02:21:28.000 --> 02:21:28.879 To the United States. 2628 02:21:28.920 --> 02:21:33.600 They've been indicted by Italian magistrates and that indictment still stands. 2629 02:21:33.719 --> 02:21:37.079 George Bush can't go to Europe because he and Dick 2630 02:21:37.200 --> 02:21:40.159 Cheney and indicted by a Spanish magistrates. 2631 02:21:40.200 --> 02:21:43.920 So well, under our theory, then it will be aoka 2632 02:21:44.159 --> 02:21:47.520 for whatever Italy has by way of special forces to 2633 02:21:47.600 --> 02:21:51.520 come in here and kidnap those CIA agents and bring 2634 02:21:51.600 --> 02:21:52.280 them back to Italy. 2635 02:21:52.920 --> 02:21:57.159 Yes it would, Yes, it would. If the logic behind 2636 02:21:58.440 --> 02:22:04.239 the American use of kidnapping applies universally, it would make 2637 02:22:04.319 --> 02:22:10.120 perfect sense for the Italian intel people to kidnap these 2638 02:22:10.200 --> 02:22:12.639 the CIA guys and put them on trial in Italy 2639 02:22:12.879 --> 02:22:15.440 and they'll be convicted because what they did is on tape. 2640 02:22:17.000 --> 02:22:19.920 Judge of Polton an enlightening discussion again an area that 2641 02:22:20.000 --> 02:22:22.479 I was really not familiar with at all, and it's 2642 02:22:22.600 --> 02:22:27.399 obviously I share with you. This outrageous a system and 2643 02:22:28.799 --> 02:22:31.159 the state of the law that we were living under 2644 02:22:31.200 --> 02:22:33.280 right now in the United States. It's just mind blowing 2645 02:22:34.280 --> 02:22:36.280 but refreshing to talk with you about it and bring 2646 02:22:36.319 --> 02:22:38.559 it to everybody's attention so more people know about it. 2647 02:22:38.680 --> 02:22:41.840 Judge entered Apolitano judging Freedom is his podcasts.

It's obviously the ninth, the second 2679 02:24:02.000 --> 02:24:04.120 Wednesday of the month because the fourth of July or 2680 02:24:04.200 --> 02:24:07.280 Independence Day holiday, and we've got that Labor Day coming 2681 02:24:07.360 --> 02:24:09.440 up in September, so we'll kick it off a week there. 2682 02:24:09.440 --> 02:24:10.840 I'll let you know where we're going to be down 2683 02:24:10.879 --> 02:24:19.799 the road. Let's see here, Ah, I was talking about violence, 2684 02:24:20.079 --> 02:24:21.719 and we do have a lot of violence going on 2685 02:24:21.840 --> 02:24:24.239 as there's been a topic of conversation in Cincinnati of late, 2686 02:24:24.360 --> 02:24:26.920 But moving away from that and thinking of violence from 2687 02:24:26.959 --> 02:24:30.079 political standpoint, four years of the Biden administration and I'm 2688 02:24:30.079 --> 02:24:32.959 sure during the Obama administration, the big concern is all 2689 02:24:33.000 --> 02:24:35.600 these right wing extremists out there. It's oh my god, 2690 02:24:35.680 --> 02:24:39.159 the concern is right wing extremism. I personally haven't really 2691 02:24:39.200 --> 02:24:41.399 seen any illustrations of that, at least not for a 2692 02:24:41.479 --> 02:24:45.639 wide scale. I did see cities shut down, molotov cocktails 2693 02:24:45.719 --> 02:24:49.399 being thrown, graffiti being written by the likes of Antifah 2694 02:24:49.559 --> 02:24:52.600 and Black Lives Matter and other left wing protest groups. 2695 02:24:52.840 --> 02:24:55.159 I do see Jewish people getting harmed on campus and 2696 02:24:55.639 --> 02:24:57.920 being deprived of their ability to get an education and 2697 02:24:58.079 --> 02:25:01.280 utilize the benefit of the outr Some they pay every 2698 02:25:01.360 --> 02:25:04.760 hour for a credit hour of education. Sorry sucks to BEU. 2699 02:25:04.840 --> 02:25:06.840 If you're on one of these elite college campuses and 2700 02:25:06.920 --> 02:25:10.559 you're Jewish, we're coming after you. These are all crazy, 2701 02:25:10.760 --> 02:25:15.079 crazy people out there, and they're the ones violating the law. 2702 02:25:16.959 --> 02:25:18.840 But what I find most troubling about this in the 2703 02:25:18.920 --> 02:25:21.399 most recent illustration and example of this, the attack on 2704 02:25:21.639 --> 02:25:25.959 ice officers. We had an Antifas cell in North Texas, 2705 02:25:27.479 --> 02:25:30.079 attacking ice officers and what seemed to be a coordinated 2706 02:25:30.079 --> 02:25:32.920 effort to actually kill somebody. They've been Ten of them 2707 02:25:32.959 --> 02:25:37.440 have been charged with attempted murder, according to the US 2708 02:25:37.479 --> 02:25:40.000 Attorney's Office North the District of Texas. After approximately ten 2709 02:25:40.000 --> 02:25:42.319 minutes of convening, one or two individuals broke off from 2710 02:25:42.319 --> 02:25:44.559 the main group and began to spray graffiti on vehicles 2711 02:25:44.959 --> 02:25:46.879 and a guard structure in the parking lot. 2712 02:25:46.840 --> 02:25:48.559 Of the facility. This is at the ice facility. 2713 02:25:49.159 --> 02:25:51.680 An Alvarado police officer responded to the scene after correction 2714 02:25:51.760 --> 02:25:54.559 officers called nine to one one to report suspicious activity. 2715 02:25:54.600 --> 02:25:59.280 When the Alvarado police officers arrived, one alleged defendant position 2716 02:25:59.360 --> 02:26:02.840 in a nearby woods shot the officer in the neck. 2717 02:26:04.799 --> 02:26:08.399 Another assailant crossed the street fired twenty to thirty rounds 2718 02:26:08.520 --> 02:26:13.079 at unarmed correctional officers who had stepped outside the facility 2719 02:26:14.959 --> 02:26:17.360 as a legend the complaint. Air style rifles were found 2720 02:26:17.399 --> 02:26:20.000 at the scene. The assailants fled from the detention centers, 2721 02:26:20.239 --> 02:26:23.200 reportedly stopped by additional law enforcement officers down the road. 2722 02:26:23.280 --> 02:26:26.200 Some of the defendants wearing body armor, some were armed, 2723 02:26:26.280 --> 02:26:29.360 some had two a radios. Total of twelve sets of 2724 02:26:29.399 --> 02:26:32.559 body armor were found during searches of vehicles associated with 2725 02:26:32.600 --> 02:26:36.360 the defendants, on their persons or in the area. Additionally, 2726 02:26:36.399 --> 02:26:40.840 officers found spray paint flyers stating quote fight ice terror 2727 02:26:41.040 --> 02:26:45.440 with class war. There's a little indication of the political leanings. 2728 02:26:46.399 --> 02:26:50.280 Free all political prisoners, and a flag stating resist fascism, 2729 02:26:50.440 --> 02:26:55.000 fight oligarchy. One attacker had cell phone inside of a 2730 02:26:55.079 --> 02:26:57.959 Faraday bag, which, of course Faraday bag block their use 2731 02:26:58.040 --> 02:27:02.520 and tracking ability. Individuals charge in one complaint with three 2732 02:27:02.559 --> 02:27:06.120 counts of attempted murder and federal agents of federal agents 2733 02:27:06.200 --> 02:27:09.040 rather than three counts of discharging firearms in relation to 2734 02:27:09.239 --> 02:27:12.239 a crime of violence. So you got all this violence 2735 02:27:12.280 --> 02:27:15.159 going on, they're just this one illustration of people attacking 2736 02:27:15.239 --> 02:27:15.840 ICE agents. 2737 02:27:15.920 --> 02:27:16.840 Why might they do that? 2738 02:27:17.399 --> 02:27:19.959 We'll just look at the most recent comments from Mayor 2739 02:27:20.120 --> 02:27:23.319 Brandon Johnson in Chicago as well as Los Angeles Mayor 2740 02:27:23.399 --> 02:27:30.959 Karen Bass. They're advocating for this. The person in charge, 2741 02:27:31.000 --> 02:27:33.680 the person's response supposed to be responsible for upholding law 2742 02:27:33.760 --> 02:27:41.319 and order, are advocating people interfere with ice. Johnson said, 2743 02:27:41.399 --> 02:27:48.440 chicagoan should rise up against ice, so our local police 2744 02:27:48.479 --> 02:27:51.840 department will never ever cooperate with Ice. Whatever their constitutional 2745 02:27:51.920 --> 02:27:54.840 authority is. And I does have the constitutional authority. As Feds, 2746 02:27:54.840 --> 02:27:56.639 they can come in and force federal law. That's what 2747 02:27:56.639 --> 02:28:02.479 they're entitled to. These elected officials aren't out loud saying, 2748 02:28:02.639 --> 02:28:05.120 you know, go ahead and shoot them and attack them, 2749 02:28:05.200 --> 02:28:07.799 but they sure are suggesting it without saying the words 2750 02:28:07.879 --> 02:28:12.079 completely and across the board. I suppose they're right to 2751 02:28:13.399 --> 02:28:16.760 engage in free speech and discourse about this, but this 2752 02:28:16.959 --> 02:28:23.120 is inciting citizenry to prevent federal authorities from engaging in 2753 02:28:23.319 --> 02:28:27.840 their obligation, engaging in their job function, which is to 2754 02:28:28.040 --> 02:28:31.520 enforce federal immigration law, which is what they're doing. The 2755 02:28:31.639 --> 02:28:33.920 laws are on the books. You got a problem with 2756 02:28:34.000 --> 02:28:39.760 the laws and elect different people. So it's not the 2757 02:28:39.879 --> 02:28:42.159 right that's the problem right now, it seems to be 2758 02:28:42.200 --> 02:28:43.799 the left. Kevin, you get the final word of the 2759 02:28:43.840 --> 02:28:45.399 Morning Show. Welcome to the Morning Show. 2760 02:28:46.639 --> 02:28:48.159 Hey, good morning, good morning. 2761 02:28:48.200 --> 02:28:48.680 Can you hear me? 2762 02:28:48.840 --> 02:28:49.959 It's sir aloud and clear. 2763 02:28:51.159 --> 02:28:55.159 Hey, you're absolutely right, brothers. Hey, we have a issue when. 2764 02:28:55.079 --> 02:28:56.479 It comes down to gun violence. 2765 02:28:57.479 --> 02:29:02.399 It's actually affecting here in Cincinnati. Crazy you and you've 2766 02:29:02.440 --> 02:29:07.360 seen it, and and our seniors are not happy. People 2767 02:29:07.479 --> 02:29:10.559 are not happy. Our seniors are not happy. Then you 2768 02:29:10.639 --> 02:29:12.479 take then you take a look. Did you see the 2769 02:29:12.639 --> 02:29:16.639 article that they just released through the Cincinnati Inquired where 2770 02:29:16.719 --> 02:29:21.799 Cincinnati spent on anti anti violence programs. UH, when it 2771 02:29:21.920 --> 02:29:22.559 came down to. 2772 02:29:23.000 --> 02:29:25.479 The holistic approach with the mayor, UH. 2773 02:29:25.520 --> 02:29:27.879 With the mayor strategy, when it comes down to reducing 2774 02:29:27.920 --> 02:29:30.680 gun violence is not working, then he wants to shift 2775 02:29:30.719 --> 02:29:32.680 the blame. Now, he wants to shift the blame onto 2776 02:29:32.760 --> 02:29:35.520 the parents and everything else. But then he come out 2777 02:29:35.559 --> 02:29:38.680 with then they throw all this money to these programs 2778 02:29:38.719 --> 02:29:40.879 that was posed to deal with it, to reduce this 2779 02:29:41.000 --> 02:29:44.879 gun violent problem. But we're having a massive impact of 2780 02:29:44.920 --> 02:29:45.520 gun violence. 2781 02:29:45.639 --> 02:29:48.079 We sure are, We sure are, Kevin. 2782 02:29:48.559 --> 02:29:50.559 And there in lies the challenge and we've got like 2783 02:29:50.639 --> 02:29:54.120 I said, I talked about Mayor Bass and Brandon Johnson 2784 02:29:54.440 --> 02:29:57.959 and or encouraging and egging on violence. But we have 2785 02:29:58.520 --> 02:30:01.719 an administration here in the city Purvoll and our counselors 2786 02:30:01.760 --> 02:30:04.239 who aren't saying a thing, who are not rising to 2787 02:30:04.319 --> 02:30:06.120 the challenge of the gun violence we're facing, which is 2788 02:30:06.159 --> 02:30:09.280 getting worse and worse every single week, something that with 2789 02:30:09.360 --> 02:30:13.399 the citizenry wants which is safe streets and safe communities, 2790 02:30:14.239 --> 02:30:17.159 and and and and and and shelling out money to 2791 02:30:17.239 --> 02:30:20.920 non governmental organizations to engage in some collaborative process or 2792 02:30:21.000 --> 02:30:23.799 do whatever you know, hocus focus that they claim they're 2793 02:30:23.799 --> 02:30:26.120 doing to stop the gun violence. As you point out, Kevin, 2794 02:30:26.600 --> 02:30:29.520 isn't working. We need strong leadership, and we need support 2795 02:30:29.520 --> 02:30:31.440 of our SINN police officers. 2796 02:30:31.559 --> 02:30:34.479 And we definitely need a more support than the courts. 2797 02:30:34.600 --> 02:30:37.600 That what I find out is that the problem is 2798 02:30:37.680 --> 02:30:40.399 not even with the police officers, it's with the court. 2799 02:30:40.479 --> 02:30:43.159 And then I'm talking to police officers out there in 2800 02:30:43.239 --> 02:30:46.680 the field right now during this campaign rally. I'm literally 2801 02:30:46.719 --> 02:30:48.879 finding out the officers are doing their job. What I 2802 02:30:48.959 --> 02:30:51.760 found it why not? What bobbles my mind?
