We get the big picture with Jack 11 00:00:52.880 --> 00:00:55.200 added in one of the segments, I just really dearly 12 00:00:55.320 --> 00:00:59.960 enjoy today subject matter. Who else was not considered? Presidential? 13 00:01:02.399 --> 00:01:06.079 Donoinant the Americans for Prosperity Every Wednesday seven thirty veto 14 00:01:06.159 --> 00:01:10.719 overrides and what is the Governor's working Group? The americanss 15 00:01:10.760 --> 00:01:14.120 Bardi yesterday announced say they commended the Ohio House Representatives 16 00:01:14.159 --> 00:01:17.000 for voting to override Governor Wines veto of key property 17 00:01:17.040 --> 00:01:21.319 tax reforms in the House Bill ninety six sixty one 18 00:01:21.359 --> 00:01:25.560 to twenty eight vote restoring fairness and accountability. According to 19 00:01:25.560 --> 00:01:31.359 the Statement for Americans for Prosperity, so the property tax relief, 20 00:01:31.400 --> 00:01:34.040 the little baby step measures for property tax relief that 21 00:01:34.120 --> 00:01:35.879 were in the budget bill that Governor de wined for 22 00:01:35.959 --> 00:01:40.879 reasons unknown to most people of vetoed back in play. 23 00:01:41.200 --> 00:01:43.359 Get the details from Donovan on that, and then also 24 00:01:43.400 --> 00:01:48.120 again what is the governor's working group? In studio Marcel Sturbitch, 25 00:01:48.560 --> 00:01:55.079 he is running for Ohio Secretary of State. Apparently he's 26 00:01:55.079 --> 00:01:57.920 got a pretty decent war chest to these buildings well, 27 00:01:58.040 --> 00:02:01.239 so in studio we'll learn about what he is all about. 28 00:02:01.719 --> 00:02:04.200 And Jack Windsor, we've had Jack on several quite a 29 00:02:04.200 --> 00:02:06.120 few times, editor in chief of the Howl Press Network. 30 00:02:06.159 --> 00:02:08.639 Jack joins the program today a thirty no judge of 31 00:02:08.639 --> 00:02:11.400 Paulton and is on vacation. Happy to have Jack in 32 00:02:11.400 --> 00:02:14.000 as a substitute. House failure to override two of the 33 00:02:14.039 --> 00:02:17.520 property tax fetas, so sort of a handoff from Donald 34 00:02:17.560 --> 00:02:21.560 anil over to Jack on the other overrides. So that's 35 00:02:21.599 --> 00:02:24.560 your lineup for this morning, and looking forward to having 36 00:02:24.560 --> 00:02:26.680 his guests on the program. Always looking forward to hearing 37 00:02:26.680 --> 00:02:28.319 from you as well. If you'd like to call five 38 00:02:28.360 --> 00:02:31.000 one three, seven four nine fifty five hundred eight hundred 39 00:02:31.080 --> 00:02:35.719 eighty two three Talk found five fifty on anti ant phone. Joe, 40 00:02:35.759 --> 00:02:37.520 do you think counsel and the Mayor have been listening 41 00:02:37.560 --> 00:02:40.719 to the Morning show and Christopher Smithman Smythervan on crime? 42 00:02:41.639 --> 00:02:46.639 You doubt it? Yeah, I do too, although you think 43 00:02:46.639 --> 00:02:51.120 it might be a natural reaction since their meeting today 44 00:02:51.560 --> 00:02:58.199 to address crime in the City of Cincinnati. Christopher, among others, 45 00:02:58.240 --> 00:03:00.639 accusing the City of Cincinnati Council some members as well 46 00:03:00.680 --> 00:03:02.319 as the Mayor for putting it ahead in the center 47 00:03:02.360 --> 00:03:05.919 otherwise hiding in the closet and not coming out and 48 00:03:05.919 --> 00:03:08.280 talking about and addressing the problem, not saying anything in 49 00:03:08.319 --> 00:03:12.080 support of the police. Crime statistics depends on who you 50 00:03:12.120 --> 00:03:15.879 listen to. Some are up, summer down, and I'm going 51 00:03:15.919 --> 00:03:19.360 to go with up because Mayor have toab Parowell has 52 00:03:19.400 --> 00:03:22.199 finally called a special meeting for since a city Council 53 00:03:22.319 --> 00:03:26.560 taking place today to discuss ways to reduce crime, most 54 00:03:26.599 --> 00:03:29.520 notably and particularly in over the Rhine as well as downtown. 55 00:03:31.120 --> 00:03:37.639 Calling back from the summer recess, Jeff forward to meet 56 00:03:37.680 --> 00:03:44.120 the motion tho specific data. This is July twenty twenty five, 57 00:03:44.159 --> 00:03:46.360 signed by Mayor have to have pro volve we move 58 00:03:46.439 --> 00:03:48.879 these said that the city administration take the following action 59 00:03:48.960 --> 00:03:52.439 to address public safety and reduce crime, particularly in downtown 60 00:03:52.439 --> 00:03:55.159 and over the Rhine areas. Colon one enforced the city 61 00:03:55.199 --> 00:04:00.479 wide curfew. Well, that in and of itself poses a problem. 62 00:04:00.520 --> 00:04:04.360 If you're suggesting the police need to enforce the existing 63 00:04:04.439 --> 00:04:07.759 city wide curfew, and why wouldn't they. There needs to 64 00:04:07.800 --> 00:04:10.879 be a place to put the juveniles and courts willing 65 00:04:10.919 --> 00:04:14.439 to prosecute them and judges willing to hold them. There 66 00:04:14.520 --> 00:04:16.959 isn't or there aren't any places, at least that's what 67 00:04:17.000 --> 00:04:20.600 we've been led to believe. It goes on. Number two, 68 00:04:20.639 --> 00:04:25.040 Review the current curfew ordinances and provide recommendations for the ages, 69 00:04:25.120 --> 00:04:29.959 times and locations of unsupervised miners. Number three, coordinate and 70 00:04:30.000 --> 00:04:33.120 act with SINCI police, community and external partners a strategy 71 00:04:33.160 --> 00:04:39.360 around curfew enforcement for unsupervised miners. Update and restrict the 72 00:04:39.360 --> 00:04:42.759 hours the city parks for unsupervised miners to nine pm 73 00:04:42.839 --> 00:04:47.120 to nine am. Review and provide recommendations to the parking 74 00:04:47.279 --> 00:04:52.600 license program. Review and provide recommendations for expanding and geographic 75 00:04:53.920 --> 00:04:56.480 That does the time and geographic footprint for the twenty 76 00:04:56.519 --> 00:04:58.920 one plus permit at the banks. That's that Dora thing. 77 00:04:59.279 --> 00:05:03.160 Review and provide recommendations for increased public police visibility in 78 00:05:03.360 --> 00:05:06.560 over the Rhine Banks and downtown. And finally number eight 79 00:05:07.120 --> 00:05:11.800 provider review in timeline for the police lateral class that 80 00:05:11.920 --> 00:05:15.680 of course would be the seasoned officers two plus years experience. 81 00:05:15.759 --> 00:05:17.759 The City of Cincinnati's trying to hire away from other 82 00:05:17.800 --> 00:05:24.240 police forces all across the country. Anyway, this special meeting 83 00:05:24.240 --> 00:05:28.480 taking place today, we already have a ten pm to 84 00:05:28.519 --> 00:05:31.399 five am curfew for unccompanied miners under the age of sixteen, 85 00:05:31.800 --> 00:05:36.120 midnight to five am for people sixteen eighteen. Mayor describe 86 00:05:36.120 --> 00:05:39.600 the enforcement of the curfew being tricky. Quote, the curfew 87 00:05:39.639 --> 00:05:42.800 is absolutely on the table and a tool that we 88 00:05:43.120 --> 00:05:47.319 can deploy. Obviously, there's a lot of logistical challenges with 89 00:05:47.360 --> 00:05:49.920 detaining kids, holding them until their parents can pick them 90 00:05:50.000 --> 00:05:52.560 up or until they can be transported home. Some of 91 00:05:52.560 --> 00:05:55.680 the logistics coming over from the legal side, the judicial 92 00:05:55.720 --> 00:06:02.480 side of the law enforcement well is a pyramid. Anyway, 93 00:06:02.480 --> 00:06:03.600 if you want to show up meeting, he's going to 94 00:06:03.639 --> 00:06:05.879 be at noon. And since they council chambers on Plump Street, 95 00:06:06.759 --> 00:06:12.560 so in addition to the curfew, council is going to 96 00:06:12.600 --> 00:06:14.879 be discussing putting more restrictions on when youth can be 97 00:06:14.920 --> 00:06:17.399 in parks and the bank's entertainment complex, as well as 98 00:06:17.439 --> 00:06:21.480 ways to increase police visibility. Purve All said, quote, I 99 00:06:21.519 --> 00:06:25.160 think it's important to have a public opportunity for council 100 00:06:25.240 --> 00:06:29.360 members to ask questions, tough questions, and really provide a 101 00:06:29.439 --> 00:06:38.000 pressure test on strategies that we're deploying. What the hell 102 00:06:38.040 --> 00:06:41.319 does that mean? And I can speak for the chief 103 00:06:41.319 --> 00:06:44.920 and the city manager that would welcome that kind of scrutiny. 104 00:06:45.040 --> 00:06:47.560 And this is an all hands on deck situation. I 105 00:06:47.560 --> 00:06:56.920 guess he's a little worried crime must be up. He 106 00:06:56.920 --> 00:07:00.160 also said, I think I've seen I've been regularly updating 107 00:07:00.199 --> 00:07:03.680 you that we are working right now with our various 108 00:07:03.680 --> 00:07:08.560 partners to make sure that when we do enforce the curfew, 109 00:07:09.480 --> 00:07:13.800 that we're doing it in the most effective and just way. Obviously, 110 00:07:13.879 --> 00:07:17.199 that suggests an acknowledgement that they're not enforcing the Curseee 111 00:07:17.319 --> 00:07:20.079 when we enforce the curfew, is this sort of a 112 00:07:20.319 --> 00:07:23.040 you know, occasionally we do sometimes we pick and choose 113 00:07:23.040 --> 00:07:25.759 whether or not to enforce the curfew. Again, I go 114 00:07:25.800 --> 00:07:28.519 back to the police department. It's an exercise of futility. 115 00:07:28.519 --> 00:07:30.839 If they go through the steps and process it takes 116 00:07:30.839 --> 00:07:33.920 to enforce the curfew. Identify the youth the individual for 117 00:07:34.000 --> 00:07:36.560 confirm that they're under the age. They're well, they're caught 118 00:07:36.600 --> 00:07:40.160 up within the curfew age limit. I guess, write them 119 00:07:40.199 --> 00:07:42.199 a citation, put them in the back of the police car, 120 00:07:42.279 --> 00:07:44.800 take them over to the juvenile detention facility where they're 121 00:07:44.879 --> 00:07:48.199 let out because there's no room there. Does that make 122 00:07:48.240 --> 00:07:56.439 any sense when we enforce the curfew? Now, I'm just 123 00:07:56.439 --> 00:07:58.360 going to go back to my own personal experience growing up. 124 00:07:58.399 --> 00:08:01.920 Who is responsible for enforcing curfews when you were young? 125 00:08:03.240 --> 00:08:07.279 You know the answer to that question? Would we need 126 00:08:07.319 --> 00:08:09.480 a curfew if we had parents at home that were 127 00:08:09.519 --> 00:08:11.839 really concerned about what their children are doing at three 128 00:08:11.879 --> 00:08:16.000 o'clock in the blanket morning. You live in a house, 129 00:08:16.000 --> 00:08:18.079 so you got a fifteen year old and they're not 130 00:08:18.319 --> 00:08:22.600 home at three o'clock in the morning, would you abide that? 131 00:08:25.480 --> 00:08:34.840 I just man. Anyhow, let's see here. Violent crime across 132 00:08:34.840 --> 00:08:38.000 the city reportedly down three percent compared to last year. 133 00:08:38.840 --> 00:08:41.559 Number of shooting victims believe it or not, they say, 134 00:08:41.840 --> 00:08:46.840 down twenty five percent from three years ago. Yet overall crime, 135 00:08:46.879 --> 00:08:51.879 including non violent property crimes up forty six percent in 136 00:08:52.000 --> 00:08:55.360 over the Rhine in downtown, including a twelve percent uptick 137 00:08:55.399 --> 00:08:58.559 and violent crime according to police statistics. Thank you to 138 00:08:58.679 --> 00:09:01.919 Scott Warman over the Sense Inquire for documenting that and 139 00:09:01.960 --> 00:09:07.039 reporting on it. So I guess the positive in all 140 00:09:07.120 --> 00:09:11.600 this is the council is actually awake, or at least 141 00:09:11.639 --> 00:09:14.440 the mayor is awake, so much so that he's bringing 142 00:09:14.440 --> 00:09:16.519 it back from summer recess. They have a special meeting 143 00:09:16.559 --> 00:09:20.600 on crime fighting in the city and talk about the proposals. 144 00:09:21.039 --> 00:09:23.399 I'll keep my popcorn out and we'll see what since 145 00:09:23.399 --> 00:09:25.600 Ana Council members say in so far as what their 146 00:09:25.720 --> 00:09:29.720 ideas are for dealing with what seems to be primarily 147 00:09:30.080 --> 00:09:36.320 youth crime, gangs of rowthing youth, and they seem to 148 00:09:36.320 --> 00:09:38.759 be everywhere. This isn't just a City of Cincinnati problem. 149 00:09:38.759 --> 00:09:40.840 This is going on all across this country. Of course, 150 00:09:40.840 --> 00:09:43.159 social media makes it very easy for all the youth 151 00:09:43.200 --> 00:09:46.639 to get together and communicate and coordinate and hey, everybody, 152 00:09:46.720 --> 00:09:48.879 show up. We're going to meet here and we're going 153 00:09:48.960 --> 00:09:51.799 to cause three forms of holy help. That just to 154 00:09:51.840 --> 00:09:56.919 me is the boiled down reality of what we're dealing 155 00:09:56.960 --> 00:09:59.639 with with youth crime. And again going back to the 156 00:09:59.679 --> 00:10:06.399 reality that if you have parents that care, they're not 157 00:10:06.519 --> 00:10:13.679 out during curfew hours. And I guess you know, moving 158 00:10:13.720 --> 00:10:18.559 back from that and recognizing that as the primary problem, 159 00:10:18.679 --> 00:10:28.080 does anybody think a politician can solve it? Seriously? Five 160 00:10:28.080 --> 00:10:31.679 point fifteen fit five kr C the talk station five one, three, seven, 161 00:10:31.679 --> 00:10:33.679 four nine fifty five hundred, eight hundred and eighty two 162 00:10:33.679 --> 00:10:35.679 to three talk O pound five fifty on at and 163 00:10:35.720 --> 00:10:36.919 T founds for free to give me a call. I 164 00:10:36.960 --> 00:10:38.080 love to hear from you. If you've got something you 165 00:10:38.080 --> 00:10:40.360 want to talk about. I'll be right back after these. 166 00:10:40.200 --> 00:10:42.120 Preeffords fifty five KRC. 167 00:10:45.039 --> 00:10:59.799 Ozzy has left the building. If he was around longer 168 00:10:59.840 --> 00:11:04.120 than Lummy though Joe, Joe suggests that he's jamming with 169 00:11:04.200 --> 00:11:09.519 Lemmy right now in the Great Beyond. It seems like 170 00:11:09.600 --> 00:11:13.240 a counterintuitive to suggests he's in heaven, though Joe, given 171 00:11:13.279 --> 00:11:23.799 that he was the Prince of Darkness just saying, oh, look, 172 00:11:26.919 --> 00:11:28.720 I guess the terrorists art is bad? Is the problem 173 00:11:28.759 --> 00:11:31.919 is we we thought he's Donald Trump and asked he's 174 00:11:31.919 --> 00:11:34.759 secured a deal with Japan. Sounds like a pretty hell 175 00:11:34.759 --> 00:11:38.240 of a deal here, massive five hundred and fifty billion 176 00:11:38.679 --> 00:11:42.480 dollar deals in rechar of Japan, Trump said yesterday, claiming 177 00:11:42.480 --> 00:11:44.360 he's going to create hundred of thousands of jobs. Quote, 178 00:11:44.399 --> 00:11:46.480 We just completed a massive deal with Japan, perhaps the 179 00:11:46.519 --> 00:11:50.120 largest deal ever made. Japan will invest, at my direction, 180 00:11:50.240 --> 00:11:53.399 five hundred and fifty billion dollars into the United States, 181 00:11:53.440 --> 00:11:57.159 which will receive ninety percent of the profits. This deal 182 00:11:57.200 --> 00:11:59.799 will create hundreds of thousands of jobs. There's never anything 183 00:11:59.879 --> 00:12:04.559 like close. Quote. Apparently, according to Trump, Japan's going to 184 00:12:04.600 --> 00:12:07.320 be opening its country to trade and things like cars, trucks, 185 00:12:07.799 --> 00:12:11.039 rice and other agricultural products. Rice has been a real 186 00:12:11.080 --> 00:12:13.720 stickler sticky point for Japan. They like to buy their 187 00:12:13.720 --> 00:12:18.399 own rice, and when they have shortages, California can step 188 00:12:18.480 --> 00:12:20.720 up and provide rice. We do grow a lot of 189 00:12:20.759 --> 00:12:22.399 rice here in the United States, but that's been a 190 00:12:22.480 --> 00:12:25.720 challenge with Japan. I said. This is a very exciting 191 00:12:25.759 --> 00:12:27.600 time for the United States of American, especially for the 192 00:12:27.600 --> 00:12:29.519 fact that we will continue to always have a great 193 00:12:29.559 --> 00:12:34.840 relationship with the country of Japan, calling it the largest 194 00:12:34.840 --> 00:12:39.320 trade deal in history, claiming Japan's top people were at 195 00:12:39.320 --> 00:12:41.120 the White House and they worked for many hours to 196 00:12:41.120 --> 00:12:45.320 get it done. Do what Japan comes about two weeks 197 00:12:45.320 --> 00:12:48.200 after trumping out the wee United States would be imposing 198 00:12:48.200 --> 00:12:51.000 in twenty five percent tariffs on goods imported from Japan. 199 00:12:51.080 --> 00:12:53.600 I guess that threat ultimately or fruit in the form 200 00:12:53.639 --> 00:12:57.240 of formalizing a trade agreement with them. Those levees expecting 201 00:12:57.240 --> 00:13:00.879 to take effect August first, if Japan raised hair some retaliation, 202 00:13:01.639 --> 00:13:05.039 which apparently they are not going to be doing. Trump 203 00:13:05.039 --> 00:13:07.039 told Japan that there would be there will be no 204 00:13:07.279 --> 00:13:10.200 tariff if companies in Japan decided to build or manufacture 205 00:13:10.240 --> 00:13:12.039 products within the United States. And in fact, we will 206 00:13:12.080 --> 00:13:14.840 do everything possible to get approvals quickly, professionally and routine lying, 207 00:13:14.919 --> 00:13:18.759 in other words, in a matter of weeks, so smoothing 208 00:13:18.799 --> 00:13:22.039 over the presumably regulatory hurdles for Japan to perform this 209 00:13:22.120 --> 00:13:24.720 investment five hundred and fifty billion dollars worth and not 210 00:13:24.799 --> 00:13:31.279 too bad Philippines got to deal with. The Philippines called 211 00:13:31.840 --> 00:13:36.240 President Ferdinand Marcos Junior a tough negotiator. Trump did while 212 00:13:36.279 --> 00:13:39.000 announcing that he had secured a zero tariff deal to 213 00:13:39.039 --> 00:13:41.320 open free trade for the export of American goods in 214 00:13:41.360 --> 00:13:44.840 the Philippines. Philippines, for their part, will be paying nineteen 215 00:13:44.919 --> 00:13:48.120 percent tariffs to export goods and services to the American 216 00:13:50.440 --> 00:13:53.480 According to Trump yesterday on social media, President Ferdinand Marcus 217 00:13:53.559 --> 00:13:55.759 or the Philippines is just leaving the White House with 218 00:13:55.840 --> 00:13:58.440 all of his many representatives. It was a big, beautiful 219 00:13:58.519 --> 00:14:02.159 visit and we concluded our trade deal whereby the Philippines 220 00:14:02.240 --> 00:14:04.559 is going to open market with the United States and 221 00:14:04.679 --> 00:14:11.039 zero tariffs. Now the reason perhaps he was able to 222 00:14:11.080 --> 00:14:17.159 negotiate a deal with Philippines paying nineteen percent with with 223 00:14:16.960 --> 00:14:19.600 with US paying nothing on theirs. The deal comes with 224 00:14:19.759 --> 00:14:23.639 a joint military agreement. Of course, Philippines a hotbed of 225 00:14:23.720 --> 00:14:26.200 Chinese Communist Party activity there in the South China. 226 00:14:26.240 --> 00:14:26.480 See. 227 00:14:27.559 --> 00:14:30.559 I suppose it's a bit of an existential threat for 228 00:14:30.559 --> 00:14:33.039 the Philippines of the Chinese around they need us, he said. 229 00:14:33.080 --> 00:14:36.840 In addition, we will work together militarily. It was a 230 00:14:36.840 --> 00:14:38.879 great honor to be with the President Marcus. He is 231 00:14:38.919 --> 00:14:48.200 highly respected in his country, as he should be, who 232 00:14:48.279 --> 00:14:51.480 suggested that the military agreement with the Philippines is important 233 00:14:51.480 --> 00:14:55.399 for American national security in the region and worldwide, again 234 00:14:55.440 --> 00:14:58.200 as a counter to the Chinese Communist Party's threat in 235 00:14:58.240 --> 00:15:04.200 the region. The trader deals bearing some fruit. We're all 236 00:15:04.200 --> 00:15:06.279 got our popcorn out waiting to see if the bottom 237 00:15:06.320 --> 00:15:07.600 is going to fall out of it, because you know, 238 00:15:07.639 --> 00:15:10.879 all the political pundits in the naysayers have been going, 239 00:15:10.919 --> 00:15:12.879 oh my god, these terrofts are going to ruin US. 240 00:15:13.399 --> 00:15:21.080 But by all accounts, no concerns about recession. The markets 241 00:15:21.120 --> 00:15:27.080 are up interestingly enough, the earning support seem to be 242 00:15:27.159 --> 00:15:32.240 pretty darn good. All things being considered, there doesn't seem 243 00:15:32.240 --> 00:15:36.919 to be a whole lot of bad, terrible news, economic devastation. 244 00:15:37.240 --> 00:15:38.960 You know, the bottom is going to fall out, We're 245 00:15:38.960 --> 00:15:41.639 all gonna die, Oh my god. I mean, they kind 246 00:15:41.639 --> 00:15:44.240 of want you to believe that, and they'll say it 247 00:15:44.279 --> 00:15:46.639 over and over again, hoping that your confidence in the 248 00:15:46.639 --> 00:15:52.360 American economy, well thanks, hoping that perhaps your trust and 249 00:15:52.399 --> 00:15:55.039 faith and Donald Trump as a president and as a leader, 250 00:15:55.639 --> 00:16:00.960 well thanks to the extent you have that confidence. It's 251 00:16:01.039 --> 00:16:03.519 continuing effort to undermine Trump and what he's trying to do. 252 00:16:03.639 --> 00:16:07.679 But amid the landscape and of course the rhetoric with 253 00:16:07.720 --> 00:16:09.399 regard to Donald Trump, you got to look at the 254 00:16:09.440 --> 00:16:12.519 actual numbers and the data and the information which suggests 255 00:16:12.720 --> 00:16:17.799 we seem to be on the right track. I know 256 00:16:17.879 --> 00:16:26.000 that's troubling for the Trump haters out there. But oh 257 00:16:26.039 --> 00:16:28.480 and the other thing I saw, Yes, this is Quinnipiac, Paul. 258 00:16:28.720 --> 00:16:32.360 It was really kind of funny about thirty questions and 259 00:16:32.440 --> 00:16:35.519 everything was you know, do you have confidence in you know, 260 00:16:35.320 --> 00:16:39.360 you got Congress, the House Representative, Senate, the presidents, on 261 00:16:39.399 --> 00:16:42.960 and on all these topics, and most everyone came out. 262 00:16:43.000 --> 00:16:45.200 I mean, there was almost like over and over and 263 00:16:45.279 --> 00:16:48.080 over again in terms of whether you have confidence or 264 00:16:48.080 --> 00:16:50.360 you have a positive attitude or a negative attitude towards 265 00:16:50.360 --> 00:16:54.080 any given issue, whether it's Epstein files being released or 266 00:16:54.080 --> 00:16:59.840 the Trump administration. Generally, it was always like maybe six 267 00:17:00.240 --> 00:17:06.640 negative and thirty ish positive, over and over and over again, 268 00:17:07.440 --> 00:17:10.960 depending on the issue. Just kind of laughed at it 269 00:17:11.000 --> 00:17:15.920 because it didn't matter what the question is. People's attitudes 270 00:17:16.079 --> 00:17:21.119 came across as negative. And they broke it down by 271 00:17:21.200 --> 00:17:23.720 party as well, And of course, depending on any given issue, 272 00:17:23.759 --> 00:17:26.279 the Republicans would have positive or the Democrats would have 273 00:17:26.319 --> 00:17:29.559 negative or flip depending on the subject matter. But overall, 274 00:17:29.759 --> 00:17:36.839 negativity was pervasive in the Quinnipiac survey, which I guess 275 00:17:36.839 --> 00:17:38.680 if you're staring at the news every single day, it's 276 00:17:38.720 --> 00:17:40.920 easy to walk away with a negative opinion. But amid 277 00:17:40.960 --> 00:17:44.440 all of these claims of negativity and all of the press, 278 00:17:45.000 --> 00:17:47.480 you know, trying to paint Trump into a corner, otherwise 279 00:17:47.519 --> 00:17:53.799 paint this bleak economic picture. The numbers don't support that conclusion. 280 00:17:55.079 --> 00:17:57.000 Five twenty six, Ja, you are on the phone. I 281 00:17:57.000 --> 00:17:58.759 will be happy to take your call, my friend, out 282 00:17:58.759 --> 00:18:00.680 of time in the segment, but I we'll look forward 283 00:18:00.720 --> 00:18:02.960 to taking that call right out of the gate before 284 00:18:02.960 --> 00:18:06.240 we get the local stories coming up next. Fifty five 285 00:18:07.559 --> 00:18:14.000 the tox datalk station five two three talk if I 286 00:18:14.039 --> 00:18:16.720 fifty on ATNT phone, I promise JD first, Tom hang on, 287 00:18:16.839 --> 00:18:18.680 get your call in a second. Jay, thanks for holding 288 00:18:18.680 --> 00:18:20.559 over the break there. Welcome to the program. 289 00:18:20.920 --> 00:18:23.920 Hey, thanks Brian. Hey, that is some great news coming 290 00:18:23.960 --> 00:18:28.039 out of Japan. Yeah, with that, with that deal, if 291 00:18:28.079 --> 00:18:31.160 we are going to pick up on some volume for 292 00:18:31.359 --> 00:18:33.759 auto and truck manufacturing over here, number one. 293 00:18:34.640 --> 00:18:39.240 Uh, I'm I'm shocked that I don't hear like Ohio 294 00:18:39.640 --> 00:18:43.960 like chasing after that at our politicians and leaders and 295 00:18:44.440 --> 00:18:45.920 economic development. 296 00:18:45.559 --> 00:18:48.240 There there's no news on that. And it's make our 297 00:18:48.279 --> 00:18:50.480 senators to do more too. I mean, that would be 298 00:18:50.519 --> 00:18:53.039 the time I've talked before about if you want to 299 00:18:53.039 --> 00:18:57.079 give automakers a boost, get rid of Jimmy Carter's cafe standards, 300 00:18:57.119 --> 00:19:00.559 get rid of Barack Obama's carbon as a as an 301 00:19:00.599 --> 00:19:03.680 emission as a pollutant, and get rid of Al Gore's 302 00:19:03.680 --> 00:19:07.960 carbon offsets. And but I know John, I know Bernie 303 00:19:07.960 --> 00:19:12.119 Marino is focus. He's got his hands full. He's embroiled 304 00:19:12.119 --> 00:19:16.359 in this name change with the Cleveland Guardians, the Indians. 305 00:19:17.640 --> 00:19:18.119 He was on. 306 00:19:18.119 --> 00:19:22.400 Breitbart, that was his big topic. So I think that 307 00:19:22.559 --> 00:19:26.039 our politicians and economic development people need to get busy 308 00:19:26.119 --> 00:19:29.480 and get moving because this ensuring may not last forever. 309 00:19:29.640 --> 00:19:30.720 It will not last forever. 310 00:19:30.960 --> 00:19:31.640 It'll be alone. 311 00:19:31.680 --> 00:19:33.160 It seems like it will be here as long as 312 00:19:33.200 --> 00:19:37.359 Trump is here. And again we've got Rolls Royce Aircraft Engines. 313 00:19:37.880 --> 00:19:39.960 Would we'd like to be the aerospace capital of the 314 00:19:39.960 --> 00:19:43.960 world data Cincinnati. I think that would be fantastic. I 315 00:19:43.960 --> 00:19:45.960 think they ought to start making some green space. I 316 00:19:46.039 --> 00:19:49.880 see Louisiana and other states winning on. Like the last 317 00:19:49.880 --> 00:19:52.960 time Hyundai and some other automakers were in sourcing, it 318 00:19:53.039 --> 00:19:57.400 seemed like we were asleep at the switch. So for us, fantastic. 319 00:19:57.480 --> 00:20:00.519 For Ohio, wake the hell up and focus on right thing. 320 00:20:01.240 --> 00:20:03.400 Get your head out of sports and given free money 321 00:20:03.400 --> 00:20:06.079 to the Browns and Clayland the Guardians. 322 00:20:05.880 --> 00:20:07.480 A name change back to the Indians. 323 00:20:07.759 --> 00:20:10.240 Yeah, there's real issues out there, fellas. 324 00:20:10.359 --> 00:20:13.559 I agree with you, Jay now I'm i'm I'll defend 325 00:20:13.599 --> 00:20:17.759 them in the sense that it's it's clickbait topic to 326 00:20:17.839 --> 00:20:20.960 talk about the name changes because people who aren't paying 327 00:20:20.960 --> 00:20:23.240 attention to politics on a level that you would pay 328 00:20:23.279 --> 00:20:25.519 attention to, you know, the weed dwellers that we are, 329 00:20:26.160 --> 00:20:28.759 are drawn to a story about the name change of 330 00:20:28.799 --> 00:20:32.119 these very like the Redskins for example, of the Indians 331 00:20:32.119 --> 00:20:35.000 for example. It's that's easy clickbait and Bernie Marina is 332 00:20:35.039 --> 00:20:37.559 all over that look. And I understand it might be 333 00:20:37.599 --> 00:20:40.480 a somewhat compelling topic to talk about because it's a 334 00:20:40.559 --> 00:20:43.160 little more interesting than what's going on behind the scenes 335 00:20:43.200 --> 00:20:46.559 with our efforts to get Japan or any other country 336 00:20:46.599 --> 00:20:50.359 to invest in Ohio. Not exactly a sexy topic. Now, 337 00:20:50.799 --> 00:20:53.359 that isn't to say, or that's not to say it's 338 00:20:53.400 --> 00:20:56.720 not going on. It's just that is there is it 339 00:20:56.759 --> 00:20:59.079 a worthwhile thing to report on that you know, Bernie 340 00:20:59.119 --> 00:21:01.559 Marina is behind the scenes reaching out to you know, 341 00:21:01.640 --> 00:21:05.680 Japan or you folks from Japan or interest in Japan 342 00:21:05.759 --> 00:21:07.599 to try to bring some of that investment into the 343 00:21:07.599 --> 00:21:10.440 state of Ohio. It may be going on. It's just 344 00:21:10.720 --> 00:21:11.400 I would I would. 345 00:21:11.680 --> 00:21:13.880 I would love to confirm that, man, you and Joe 346 00:21:13.920 --> 00:21:16.720 do a fantastic job. Somebody else will call up, called 347 00:21:16.759 --> 00:21:19.599 in and said, sometimes it's shocking. We'll have a conversation 348 00:21:19.720 --> 00:21:21.640 with you, and then like the next day or two. 349 00:21:21.839 --> 00:21:22.799 There's like follow up. 350 00:21:22.839 --> 00:21:25.279 And this isn't a demand, this is a compliment that 351 00:21:25.640 --> 00:21:27.880 uh as you say, I'll keep my popcorn out and 352 00:21:27.920 --> 00:21:30.759 see if the adults ever show up and talk about 353 00:21:30.759 --> 00:21:34.440 what they're doing with economic development less about sports. So yeah, 354 00:21:34.440 --> 00:21:35.319 I would love to hear that. 355 00:21:36.240 --> 00:21:38.680 Well, keep your fingers crossed and I'll just look forward 356 00:21:38.680 --> 00:21:41.960 to the future with vv where Ramas Swami, I mean, 357 00:21:42.000 --> 00:21:45.079 he is all over making Ohio the most you know, 358 00:21:45.240 --> 00:21:49.119 energy abundant energy producer. Now, if that would bear fruit 359 00:21:49.400 --> 00:21:53.880 and we could become a manufacturer of inexpensive energy nuke plans, 360 00:21:53.960 --> 00:21:56.759 modular nukes, well however we achieve it, that would be 361 00:21:56.839 --> 00:22:00.680 a huge draw. Also lowering our income tax that just happened. 362 00:22:00.720 --> 00:22:03.119 That's a draw for businesses. So that's a step in 363 00:22:03.160 --> 00:22:06.799 the right direction. So we can't I can't expect everything overnight. 364 00:22:06.839 --> 00:22:09.599 But once we make our state more attractive to outside 365 00:22:09.640 --> 00:22:12.400 development than they're comparing us to Texas and Florida and 366 00:22:12.480 --> 00:22:16.640 some of these other uh, more of a magnet states 367 00:22:16.680 --> 00:22:19.319 because of their economic policies, we'll be on a competitive 368 00:22:19.359 --> 00:22:21.640 playing field.

Jay Tom, welcome in the morning show, 371 00:22:27.640 --> 00:22:29.440 my friend. Good to hear from me. Happy Wednesday. 372 00:22:30.440 --> 00:22:32.920 Yeah, good good morning. And as yes, as long as 373 00:22:32.960 --> 00:22:37.599 we are moving in the right direction, we all like 374 00:22:37.680 --> 00:22:40.839 it to be a little quicker, but yeah, we're definitely 375 00:22:40.880 --> 00:22:44.200 moving in the right direction. Imagine that all the all 376 00:22:44.240 --> 00:22:47.720 the things that the Democrats said turned out to be lies. 377 00:22:48.160 --> 00:22:53.759 Uh Who who saw that coming? Who called who called that? 378 00:22:53.799 --> 00:22:57.240 Other than everybody that's not a Democrat. So yeah, all 379 00:22:57.279 --> 00:23:00.920 this all this hand ringing, and these these people know, 380 00:23:01.240 --> 00:23:03.200 I mean a lot of these people, they make money, 381 00:23:03.640 --> 00:23:06.400 They know how money is made. They just want to 382 00:23:06.400 --> 00:23:08.720 be the ones that call the shots. They want to 383 00:23:08.720 --> 00:23:11.720 be the ones with their hands on the levers of power, uh, 384 00:23:11.799 --> 00:23:15.519 and controlling where the money goes, and and it pisses 385 00:23:15.599 --> 00:23:18.440 them off that that Trump's the one controlling that he's 386 00:23:18.480 --> 00:23:20.799 getting it done, and so they got to come up 387 00:23:20.799 --> 00:23:24.759 with anything and everything. We're gonna hear more crap over 388 00:23:24.799 --> 00:23:27.960 the next year leading up to the mid terms than 389 00:23:28.000 --> 00:23:30.400 we've ever heard before. And when you know, we we 390 00:23:30.519 --> 00:23:33.519 heard a bunch of stuff, you know, in the previous elections, 391 00:23:33.559 --> 00:23:35.720 and it just kept ramping up and ramping up, and 392 00:23:35.759 --> 00:23:38.599 it's only gonna get worse. We got to get rid 393 00:23:38.640 --> 00:23:43.480 of more Democrats. Uh so that that the majority in 394 00:23:43.519 --> 00:23:47.039 the House is bigger and stronger. It's it's very I mean, 395 00:23:47.079 --> 00:23:51.319 it's razor thin right now. And instead of concentrating on 396 00:23:51.319 --> 00:23:56.559 on somebody like Thomas Massey and Kentucky, the Republicans need 397 00:23:56.640 --> 00:23:59.839 to concentrate on getting rid of more Democrats. Get them 398 00:24:00.079 --> 00:24:02.400 out of there. You know, you want to keep a 399 00:24:02.480 --> 00:24:08.200 few around just just for comedy, relief, whatever. But we've 400 00:24:08.240 --> 00:24:10.720 got to get rid of Democrats. So pay attention to 401 00:24:10.759 --> 00:24:14.319 what's going on.

He played with the Sinsinny Symphony Orchestra, 566 00:33:43.920 --> 00:33:45.319 though for the first half of the show, which was 567 00:33:45.400 --> 00:33:48.359 rather interesting. Anyway, back over to the stack of stupid. 568 00:33:48.400 --> 00:33:53.039 This is a this is really truly bizarre. After calling 569 00:33:53.079 --> 00:33:57.200 police to complain that a woman refused to leave his home, 570 00:33:57.240 --> 00:34:01.240 a Louisiana man, unsure if you as trespasser was still 571 00:34:01.279 --> 00:34:04.240 inside his home, asked officers to search his property and, 572 00:34:04.279 --> 00:34:09.320 in his words, clear his residence. Cop said fine. They 573 00:34:09.360 --> 00:34:11.280 agreed to take a look at the West Monroe home 574 00:34:11.320 --> 00:34:15.400 of Marcus Gilroy, sixty years old, in search of the 575 00:34:15.519 --> 00:34:21.559 woman that he claimed was named Aretha. They didn't locate Aretha. However, 576 00:34:21.760 --> 00:34:25.840 while searching his home at his request, investigators discovered three 577 00:34:26.960 --> 00:34:32.800 child size sex dolls in his bedroom to what the 578 00:34:33.000 --> 00:34:35.400 hell dolls in the corner of the police report lying 579 00:34:35.519 --> 00:34:38.199 on and near the bed. Upon finding the dolls, police 580 00:34:38.199 --> 00:34:41.519 obtained a warrant to search his home. During the execution 581 00:34:41.559 --> 00:34:45.719 of the search warrant, an anatomically correct sex doll of 582 00:34:45.760 --> 00:34:52.000 an infant, two what the hell, and two anatomically correct 583 00:34:52.000 --> 00:34:56.159 dolls resembling children under the age of thirteen were recovered. 584 00:34:57.400 --> 00:35:01.000 During police questioning, he repeatedly admitted ownersh of the three dolls, 585 00:35:01.000 --> 00:35:06.280 which he purchased online, stating he quote has had sex 586 00:35:06.360 --> 00:35:11.960 with each of the dolls multiple times close quote Gilroy Corney. 587 00:35:12.000 --> 00:35:16.119 Police also admitted, well, I'm not even gonna read that line. 588 00:35:17.880 --> 00:35:21.239 Gilroy arrested possession, trafficking and importing of child sex doll, 589 00:35:21.280 --> 00:35:24.760 which is described as a felony. Also charged possession of 590 00:35:24.800 --> 00:35:29.199 marijuana and drug paraphernalia. Rap sheet includes bus for theft, battery, forgery, 591 00:35:29.320 --> 00:35:33.679 narcotics possession, and yet, in spite of the history, he 592 00:35:33.679 --> 00:35:35.840 didn't hesitate to invite the police into his home. 593 00:35:37.360 --> 00:35:38.000 Period. 594 00:35:38.880 --> 00:35:43.960 The biggest douche of the universe, in all the galaxies, 595 00:35:44.199 --> 00:35:48.920 there's no bigger douche than you.

Good going doue, your dreams 597 00:35:55.159 --> 00:36:00.199 have come true. 598 00:36:00.920 --> 00:36:05.280 Some sick people in the world go to Kentucky, Laurel County, specifically, 599 00:36:05.440 --> 00:36:08.360 man there co used of running from law enforcement officers. 600 00:36:09.440 --> 00:36:12.920 Happened Saturday eleven pm. Laurel County deputies responded reports of 601 00:36:12.920 --> 00:36:16.119 a fight in an apartment complex. Deputies on the way 602 00:36:16.119 --> 00:36:19.360 to the scene, the suspect fled in the car. Deputies 603 00:36:19.400 --> 00:36:21.679 tried to pull the car over. The man allegedly slammed 604 00:36:21.719 --> 00:36:24.079 on his brakes, causing a deputy to crash into him. 605 00:36:24.119 --> 00:36:26.199 That guy then got out of the car ran into 606 00:36:26.280 --> 00:36:31.320 the woods. Once deputies learned the man's name, Michael Root, Jr. 607 00:36:32.760 --> 00:36:37.320 They called his cell phone. He did answer the phone, 608 00:36:37.360 --> 00:36:40.239 reportedly telling deputies that he wanted to term himself in 609 00:36:40.440 --> 00:36:44.480 but he was lost in the woods. Idiots doing idiot 610 00:36:44.519 --> 00:36:46.679 things because they're idiots. 611 00:36:47.039 --> 00:36:47.519 To report. 612 00:36:47.599 --> 00:36:53.239 The county rescue squad used a drone to find him, 613 00:36:53.280 --> 00:36:57.159 eventually taking into custody. Charged with wanton endangerment and fleeing 614 00:36:57.239 --> 00:37:03.199 and evating police officers. Let us end. In Wisconsin, two 615 00:37:03.239 --> 00:37:05.599 people arrested and one person taken to the hospital after 616 00:37:05.639 --> 00:37:08.559 a fight at a Route forty one bar and girl, 617 00:37:08.599 --> 00:37:13.719 which is in Oak Creek Police dispatch there after five 618 00:37:13.760 --> 00:37:16.079 pm for a port of a large fight involving around 619 00:37:16.400 --> 00:37:21.239 sixty people. Officers got there, they saw motorcyclists leave the scene. 620 00:37:21.280 --> 00:37:23.480 Frank From police tried to stop that motorcycle, but it 621 00:37:23.559 --> 00:37:26.599 was unsuccessful, prompting a brief chase eventually terminated by a 622 00:37:26.599 --> 00:37:28.559 police Police said they don't know if the motorcyclist and 623 00:37:28.599 --> 00:37:31.360 the chase was even involved in the fight. To thirty 624 00:37:31.800 --> 00:37:35.639 thirty two year old men suffered minor injuries.

Again. Feel free 661 00:39:35.639 --> 00:39:40.360 to call if you're inclined. I guess I'm still struggling, 662 00:39:40.360 --> 00:39:44.679 and just just note that this Epstein thing, is it 663 00:39:44.760 --> 00:39:51.559 a distraction? I mean, I'm troubled with the Trump administration's 664 00:39:51.679 --> 00:39:55.320 attitude toward releasing whatever documents they've got. And some people 665 00:39:55.400 --> 00:39:57.199 have pointed out, well, you know, maybe there are a 666 00:39:57.199 --> 00:39:59.239 bunch of people mentioned in there that really had nothing 667 00:39:59.280 --> 00:40:02.559 to do with my with Epstein and his pedophilia, molesting 668 00:40:02.679 --> 00:40:06.199 children or women or whatever, not involved in sex trafficking. 669 00:40:06.239 --> 00:40:08.559 They just happened to be rubbing shoulders with the rich 670 00:40:08.599 --> 00:40:10.880 and famous, which is exactly what Epstein did all along. 671 00:40:10.880 --> 00:40:12.440 And we don't want to release the things because it 672 00:40:12.519 --> 00:40:16.000 might unfairly implicate them. Nobody seems to have that concern 673 00:40:16.119 --> 00:40:20.519 really any other time. But okay, I understand that argument. 674 00:40:20.960 --> 00:40:23.800 But after years of talking about releasing the Epstein files 675 00:40:23.840 --> 00:40:26.440 and letting us see what the list is there's no list. Now, 676 00:40:26.440 --> 00:40:29.320 there's nothing there there there's nothing but with Epstein except 677 00:40:29.320 --> 00:40:33.159 Epstein's downloaded child porn, which we can't release anyway. It 678 00:40:33.199 --> 00:40:35.199 was one hundred and eighty degree shift. And I don't 679 00:40:35.280 --> 00:40:38.880 understand why draw all the ire of a lot of 680 00:40:38.920 --> 00:40:43.239 your base, Donald Trump by changing your position on this. 681 00:40:43.480 --> 00:40:48.039 Why don't just let them out? I don't see what overall, 682 00:40:48.280 --> 00:40:51.679 big broad harm can come from that. Maybe I'm missing something, 683 00:40:52.320 --> 00:40:54.239 or maybe this is just a distraction to keep us 684 00:40:54.280 --> 00:40:58.480 from talking about the big bombshell, which was that Obama 685 00:40:58.519 --> 00:41:01.119 tried to undermine the Donald Trump presidency and engage in 686 00:41:01.119 --> 00:41:04.480 this conspiracy which many are calling an effort to accoups 687 00:41:04.559 --> 00:41:10.079 d'tas anyway. Speaker Mike Johnson announced yesterday he's cutting short 688 00:41:10.159 --> 00:41:13.760 the week's legislative business, sending everybody home early for the summer. 689 00:41:14.239 --> 00:41:17.639 They're going home today in order to not have a 690 00:41:17.800 --> 00:41:23.800 vote on releasing Epstein's files, saying we're done being lectured 691 00:41:23.880 --> 00:41:30.199 on transparency. Really you may feel that way, I don't 692 00:41:30.239 --> 00:41:31.960 know that it's going to make the issue go away, 693 00:41:32.039 --> 00:41:39.199 mister Johnson. He complained about quote endless efforts to politicize 694 00:41:39.239 --> 00:41:43.960 the Epstein investigation close quote is it being politicized? Is 695 00:41:44.000 --> 00:41:48.880 this a political issue? I mean, it's such a weird issue. 696 00:41:50.400 --> 00:41:52.960 And some are critical of Thomas Massey for pushing forward 697 00:41:53.039 --> 00:41:55.440 and getting these documents released. Why didn't you do it 698 00:41:55.519 --> 00:41:58.960 during the Biden administration? That's a fair question. But why 699 00:41:59.000 --> 00:42:01.960 are the Democrats now clamoring to get these documents out 700 00:42:02.039 --> 00:42:04.239 when they had four years of the Biden administration, when 701 00:42:04.239 --> 00:42:06.519 they were in control, they could have gotten the documents out. 702 00:42:06.599 --> 00:42:11.880 Then why did some people demand the release of the 703 00:42:11.960 --> 00:42:14.400 Epstein files and now have gone the other direction and 704 00:42:14.480 --> 00:42:17.119 say no, they shouldn't be released or we're not releasing them. 705 00:42:18.519 --> 00:42:21.480 I just don't. I really am just totally perplexed by 706 00:42:21.519 --> 00:42:29.440 all of this anyway, Because they're going home, the Republicans 707 00:42:29.559 --> 00:42:34.519 plan on measures targeting some undocumented immigrants, a bill that 708 00:42:34.559 --> 00:42:36.480 would ease environmental rules and roll back some of the 709 00:42:36.519 --> 00:42:39.599 Biden air regulations. Now those votes put on hold because 710 00:42:39.639 --> 00:42:41.719 they don't want to vote on the Epstein thing. So 711 00:42:42.000 --> 00:42:45.679 good business, real business on behalf of the American taxpayers 712 00:42:46.199 --> 00:42:51.239 won't be getting done because of Epstein. Johnson said he 713 00:42:51.239 --> 00:42:54.039 would not schedule a vote this summer releasing the Epstein files. 714 00:42:54.400 --> 00:42:57.360 Arguing that Trump and his administration needed, in his word 715 00:42:57.760 --> 00:43:06.400 space to determine how to proceed. Really. Yesterday, he claimed 716 00:43:06.440 --> 00:43:08.519 the House Republicans were united on the issue and that 717 00:43:08.599 --> 00:43:12.280 they needed to be quote judicious and careful about protecting 718 00:43:12.400 --> 00:43:16.440 the innocent close quote HM. For her part, Marjorie Taylor 719 00:43:16.480 --> 00:43:18.679 Green said crimes have been committed. If there's no justice 720 00:43:18.679 --> 00:43:20.519 in new accountability, people are going to get sick of it. 721 00:43:20.639 --> 00:43:22.480 That's where people largely are. 722 00:43:22.800 --> 00:43:23.039 Yeah. 723 00:43:24.440 --> 00:43:27.039 Thomas Massey said he still planned to circumvent the House 724 00:43:27.079 --> 00:43:28.960 Republican leaders and try to force the vote and release 725 00:43:28.960 --> 00:43:31.559 in the Epstein files in September when they come back 726 00:43:31.639 --> 00:43:36.679 from their recess. This isn't going away. Massey said. He 727 00:43:36.840 --> 00:43:39.239 just told us there to stick their heads in the 728 00:43:39.320 --> 00:43:47.800 sand about this Epstein thing. Johnson claims Massy is the problem. 729 00:43:49.800 --> 00:43:52.639 Johnson said some here are much more frustrating than others. 730 00:43:52.719 --> 00:43:55.159 I don't know how his mind works. I don't know 731 00:43:55.199 --> 00:44:00.559 what he's thinking. And then he circuitously ended up with 732 00:44:00.800 --> 00:44:04.880 bless his Heart, sort of a backhanded not compliment to 733 00:44:05.280 --> 00:44:08.480 Congress from Massey, just to sort of you know, we're 734 00:44:08.559 --> 00:44:12.119 tolerating him kind of message, but they're not so anyway, 735 00:44:12.199 --> 00:44:15.239 it's confusing to me. But maybe again this is a 736 00:44:15.320 --> 00:44:18.000 distraction to keep people from talking about the Obama administration's 737 00:44:18.119 --> 00:44:22.519 role in instigating the Trump Russia collusion investigation. Jim Jordan 738 00:44:22.639 --> 00:44:26.199 was on the other day on Hannity and he summed 739 00:44:26.199 --> 00:44:30.719 it up quite nicely, calling it worse than we thought. Jordan, 740 00:44:31.159 --> 00:44:33.480 it all started back in twenty sixteen. It was wasn't 741 00:44:33.679 --> 00:44:36.960 just to keep Trump from winning the election in twenty sixteen, 742 00:44:37.039 --> 00:44:40.400 it was to undermine his presidency after he already won. 743 00:44:41.800 --> 00:44:43.440 If you want to take a three dates in the 744 00:44:43.480 --> 00:44:46.320 interim between the election day and inauguration day, back in 745 00:44:46.400 --> 00:44:51.159 twenty sixteen, twenty seventeen, December ninth, post election, Donald Trump won, 746 00:44:52.199 --> 00:44:54.280 Obama calls a meeting in the White House. All the 747 00:44:54.360 --> 00:44:57.960 intelligence communities there, plus the Justice Department. You got Lynch, 748 00:44:58.000 --> 00:45:00.880 you got Comy, you got Clapper, you got Bread, They're 749 00:45:00.920 --> 00:45:04.880 all there. Obama says, we're not going to go with 750 00:45:05.119 --> 00:45:08.840 the intelligence community assessment. We're going to put that on hold, 751 00:45:09.920 --> 00:45:11.840 and they put together a new one. Now, the background 752 00:45:11.880 --> 00:45:15.320 on that summarize common from Jordan. The intelligence community had 753 00:45:15.320 --> 00:45:18.159 concluded that the Russia did not interfere with the election, 754 00:45:19.159 --> 00:45:21.559 there wasn't anything there. We looked around, We looked and 755 00:45:21.599 --> 00:45:23.920 looked and looked, and we couldn't find any Russian interference 756 00:45:24.000 --> 00:45:27.800 and a story. So that doesn't sit well with Obama 757 00:45:27.960 --> 00:45:32.719 because it doesn't undermine Trump, says. Jordan goes on, because 758 00:45:32.719 --> 00:45:34.480 we're going to put that on hold, and they put 759 00:45:34.519 --> 00:45:38.480 together a new assessment. Three and a half weeks later, 760 00:45:38.599 --> 00:45:42.119 Jordan reported January third, Chuck Schumer's on one of the 761 00:45:42.239 --> 00:45:45.519 Sunday shows, and he said, if you mess with the 762 00:45:45.639 --> 00:45:50.719 intelligence community talking to president like Donald Trump, if you 763 00:45:50.840 --> 00:45:53.719 mess with the intelligence community, they have six ways from 764 00:45:53.840 --> 00:45:56.320 Sunday to get back at you. Well, that's a rather 765 00:45:56.440 --> 00:45:59.960 revealing statement upon reflection, isn't it, Recognizing that the intelligence 766 00:46:00.000 --> 00:46:05.760 communities actually did get together and went after Trump. Jordan 767 00:46:05.840 --> 00:46:09.400 went on three days later sean three days later, January 768 00:46:09.440 --> 00:46:12.599 of Trump Tower of the Intelligence Community, Comy Brennan Clapper 769 00:46:13.400 --> 00:46:16.440 go up there to give President Trump what Trump believes 770 00:46:16.639 --> 00:46:21.960 is a defensive briefing all incoming presidents get. So he's 771 00:46:22.000 --> 00:46:24.960 explaining just the normal, so he's expecting rather just the 772 00:46:25.039 --> 00:46:29.920 normal briefing. Instead, it's a setup. They go up there 773 00:46:29.960 --> 00:46:33.199 and brief him and then they tell him about the dossier, 774 00:46:33.400 --> 00:46:36.960 the Steele dossier, the dossier that they already know is false, 775 00:46:37.639 --> 00:46:39.880 and then it gets leaked to the press and thereby 776 00:46:39.920 --> 00:46:42.719 giving it credibility. When the press reports that Jim Comey, 777 00:46:42.880 --> 00:46:46.199 FBI director brief Donald Trump on the Russian dossier. It 778 00:46:46.320 --> 00:46:49.719 was all garbage, but it was all designed to undermine. 779 00:46:50.280 --> 00:46:54.159 This is where it began. The whole weaponization of government 780 00:46:54.239 --> 00:46:59.000 began here. And your first point, Sean, you're right. We 781 00:46:59.119 --> 00:47:01.840 had figured that this out several years ago, and we're 782 00:47:01.920 --> 00:47:05.800 covering this and the only thing we had wrong was 783 00:47:05.880 --> 00:47:08.599 that it was worse than we thought. That's the only 784 00:47:08.679 --> 00:47:11.719 thing that get wrong when we dig into these investigations. 785 00:47:11.840 --> 00:47:17.400 It's always worse than we thought. Jim Jordan, So maybe 786 00:47:17.480 --> 00:47:20.239 Epstein and you know, it's like, pay no attention to 787 00:47:20.280 --> 00:47:22.760 the man behind the curtain. Look Epstein files, Epstein files, 788 00:47:22.760 --> 00:47:29.000 Epstein files, kind of like Berdie Marina talk about renaming 789 00:47:29.639 --> 00:47:33.679 the baseball team, rather than while engaging in substance of 790 00:47:33.760 --> 00:47:37.320 conversations about what Ohio is doing to draw economic investment 791 00:47:37.440 --> 00:47:39.360 to the state of Ohio. As we talked about earlier 792 00:47:39.360 --> 00:47:43.079 in the program with Jay, it's a convenient distraction. The 793 00:47:43.159 --> 00:47:47.760 Epstein Files, I would argue, but this story is not 794 00:47:47.960 --> 00:47:52.400 going away. Clearly, clearly it's not going away. The question 795 00:47:52.559 --> 00:47:55.119 is whether anybody will have a price to pay for 796 00:47:55.320 --> 00:47:59.840 doing what they did to Donald Trump. Because remember this 797 00:48:00.159 --> 00:48:04.559 timeline of events. The Steele dossier is fake. It was 798 00:48:04.679 --> 00:48:07.559 paid for by the d NC at the pas to 799 00:48:07.679 --> 00:48:11.239 Hillary Clinton. It was paid for to create a fake 800 00:48:11.559 --> 00:48:15.599 narrative that Russia had somehow the goods on Donald Trump 801 00:48:16.119 --> 00:48:18.639 and that they were using it to sort of blackmail him, 802 00:48:18.960 --> 00:48:23.159 that he was an asset of the Russians. That story 803 00:48:23.440 --> 00:48:27.480 could not have been told, that argument could not have 804 00:48:27.639 --> 00:48:31.840 been made without the Steele dossier, because, as we now know, 805 00:48:32.039 --> 00:48:34.760 the intelligence community had already determined that the Russians had 806 00:48:34.880 --> 00:48:38.440 not a damn thing to do with interfering with the election. 807 00:48:39.360 --> 00:48:42.400 What do we need, Well, we need a smoking gun. 808 00:48:43.000 --> 00:48:44.519 And when you don't have a real one, you go 809 00:48:44.639 --> 00:48:47.199 out and fake it, and you pay a guy named 810 00:48:47.239 --> 00:48:49.920 Steele to write down a bunch of gibbers on paper 811 00:48:50.039 --> 00:48:52.679 and then offered up to the American people as something legitimate. 812 00:48:53.400 --> 00:48:55.519 Did you feel burned and lied to? It was one 813 00:48:55.519 --> 00:48:58.719 of the things that really really never ever got over 814 00:48:58.840 --> 00:49:02.320 with Bill Clinton. I did not have sex with that woman, 815 00:49:02.440 --> 00:49:04.840 Monica Lewinsky, And he waved his finger at you and me. 816 00:49:05.039 --> 00:49:07.400 He was lying through his teeth, and I didn't care 817 00:49:07.519 --> 00:49:09.519 so much about the underlying charge that he had sex 818 00:49:09.599 --> 00:49:11.800 with Monica Lewinsky. If I was married to Hillary Clinton, 819 00:49:11.800 --> 00:49:15.719 you know what I might have too. But you know 820 00:49:15.800 --> 00:49:17.239 what I would have done. I'd have gone out and 821 00:49:17.280 --> 00:49:19.719 admitted it. I'm not gonna lie to you. Yeah I 822 00:49:19.800 --> 00:49:24.559 did it. Sorry, I apologize to the American people. Please 823 00:49:24.639 --> 00:49:27.239 forgive me. I'm not the only one in the world 824 00:49:27.280 --> 00:49:29.760 who's had an affair behind his wife, and therefore I 825 00:49:29.840 --> 00:49:32.159 asked for your forgiveness as a president. But I will 826 00:49:32.239 --> 00:49:34.000 not lie to you and tell you it didn't happen. 827 00:49:34.360 --> 00:49:36.519 Then I could have accepted it. I think it would 828 00:49:36.519 --> 00:49:38.280 have been a better path for Bill Clinton to go down. 829 00:49:39.760 --> 00:49:43.079 I don't like being lied to. And when you look 830 00:49:43.119 --> 00:49:47.480 at lies on this scale, we're talking about the FBI, 831 00:49:47.639 --> 00:49:49.920 We're talking about the Department of Justice. We're talking about 832 00:49:49.920 --> 00:49:52.480 people who are supposed to be keeping the American people's 833 00:49:52.519 --> 00:49:56.719 interest and what their desires are. And for apparently, you 834 00:49:56.800 --> 00:49:59.400 know a number of reasons, Donald Trump was what America 835 00:49:59.480 --> 00:50:03.599 wanted and that's we voted for. We didn't want Hillary Clinton. 836 00:50:05.679 --> 00:50:07.920 And here were all these organizations that you and I 837 00:50:08.360 --> 00:50:13.320 work every day to pay their salary, trying to take 838 00:50:13.400 --> 00:50:19.199 away the will of the American people. Six seventeen fifty 839 00:50:19.239 --> 00:50:21.639 five care seeing the talk station. Now I can mentioned 840 00:50:21.639 --> 00:50:25.000 Affordable Medical Imaging Richmond.

Yeah, it's just really mind blowing because 845 00:50:38.920 --> 00:50:41.760 CT scans are like five grand at a hospital. I 846 00:50:41.800 --> 00:50:43.880 don't know why, except it just that the fact it's 847 00:50:43.920 --> 00:50:45.880 just a big profit center. Most people don't know that 848 00:50:45.960 --> 00:50:47.639 they have a choice when it comes to medical care. 849 00:50:47.719 --> 00:50:49.679 And you don't have to go to the hospital imaging 850 00:50:49.719 --> 00:50:52.320 department that's where your doctor wants to send you because 851 00:50:52.360 --> 00:50:55.920 the well, the hospital probably owns your doctor's practice.

And as mentioned an on 862 00:51:26.679 --> 00:51:29.400 the program, but Trump's been able to accomplish a whole 863 00:51:29.440 --> 00:51:31.480 lot a lot of very very good news. And I 864 00:51:31.599 --> 00:51:34.960 know the mainstream media, legacy media does everything I can 865 00:51:35.079 --> 00:51:37.920 to paint Donald Trump is an evil satan or something 866 00:51:38.079 --> 00:51:43.239 like that. There's there's plenty of positive information out there. 867 00:51:43.280 --> 00:51:46.559 Look at it. Trade deal with Japan, five hundred and 868 00:51:46.559 --> 00:51:49.079 fifty billion dollar investment. Got a trade deal with Philippines. 869 00:51:49.079 --> 00:51:51.400 Looked at that turned out pretty nice. So the tariffs, 870 00:51:52.000 --> 00:51:54.199 the the threat of terraft scenes to be working at 871 00:51:54.199 --> 00:51:57.280 Trump and the American people's advantage. Slow process not going 872 00:51:57.360 --> 00:52:02.199 fast enough. It's the government doge unleash. And then we 873 00:52:02.639 --> 00:52:04.960 brought to our attention, although they didn't save as much 874 00:52:04.960 --> 00:52:07.159 as they originally hope, but they brought to our attention 875 00:52:07.320 --> 00:52:09.960 the insanity coming out of federal government in where the 876 00:52:10.039 --> 00:52:13.079 money gets the guys going. We learned so much about 877 00:52:13.159 --> 00:52:17.119 non governmental organizations getting the American taxpayer dollar relief checks 878 00:52:17.159 --> 00:52:19.239 and out there in the world claiming to do something 879 00:52:19.320 --> 00:52:21.000 we don't know whether they actually did anything or not 880 00:52:21.159 --> 00:52:24.800 with it. And then in a flip of a switch, 881 00:52:24.920 --> 00:52:26.800 we find out all you needed to do is work 882 00:52:26.880 --> 00:52:29.199 with software engineers, and you find out that there are 883 00:52:29.239 --> 00:52:33.280 two point eight million people on two government health insurance plans. 884 00:52:33.800 --> 00:52:40.880 That's right. Two CMS reported last week that one point 885 00:52:40.920 --> 00:52:45.400 two million Americans were enrolled in Medicaid or the Children's 886 00:52:45.400 --> 00:52:49.159 health insurance program in two or more states. You can't 887 00:52:49.239 --> 00:52:52.679 do that. It's called double dipping. And all the agency 888 00:52:52.719 --> 00:52:55.280 had to do was work with software engineers through review 889 00:52:55.400 --> 00:52:58.519 enrollment data, and it found another one point six million 890 00:52:58.639 --> 00:53:07.920 enrolled in both Medicaid and Obamacare plan taxpayers subsidized. Apparently, 891 00:53:07.960 --> 00:53:10.719 the Biden administration's policy was willful ignorance about whether the 892 00:53:10.719 --> 00:53:14.199 folks enrolled in these programs were even eligible or continuing 893 00:53:14.239 --> 00:53:16.880 to need public assistance. The Biden administration, now you know, 894 00:53:16.960 --> 00:53:20.679 the Big Beautiful Bill, requires the government to check twice 895 00:53:20.800 --> 00:53:24.760 a year about Medicaid eligibility. The Biden administration apparently ban 896 00:53:24.920 --> 00:53:27.440 states from checking Medicaid eligibility more than once a year. 897 00:53:28.800 --> 00:53:30.760 It's supposed to be a temporary safety net. So the 898 00:53:30.840 --> 00:53:33.119 idea of checking more than once is, well, you don't 899 00:53:33.239 --> 00:53:37.199 need it anymore. You're now in an employed situation. Therefore 900 00:53:37.199 --> 00:53:43.480 you're no longer eligible. But the idea that just you know, 901 00:53:43.760 --> 00:53:45.960 here we are just you know, six months into the 902 00:53:45.960 --> 00:53:50.800 Trump administration that they were able to reveal fourteen billion 903 00:53:51.320 --> 00:53:54.920 dollars in ultimate savings by cutting out the two point 904 00:53:55.039 --> 00:54:02.159 eight million double dippers. That's a positive step. 905 00:54:04.599 --> 00:54:04.719 Now. 906 00:54:04.800 --> 00:54:09.199 Sadly, the insurers apparently aren't interested in getting rid of 907 00:54:09.239 --> 00:54:12.280 the double dippers because they get free money for enrollees 908 00:54:12.320 --> 00:54:14.360 who may have moved into other states otherwise may not 909 00:54:14.480 --> 00:54:17.599 be using the coverage, but they're not eligible for it. 910 00:54:18.039 --> 00:54:21.199 That money shouldn't be there in the first instance. So 911 00:54:22.880 --> 00:54:25.800 if your goal is to cut out waste, and you 912 00:54:25.920 --> 00:54:29.480 provide the resources to do that in a very short 913 00:54:29.519 --> 00:54:31.960 period of time, you can yield a substantial savings to 914 00:54:31.960 --> 00:54:34.119 the American taxpayer. I mean, look at that bill the 915 00:54:34.199 --> 00:54:37.119 other day was nine billion dollars and cuts from government. 916 00:54:37.199 --> 00:54:39.880 Oh my god, MPR is not going to be funded anymore. Yeah, okay, 917 00:54:39.920 --> 00:54:42.760 big deal. But that was only nine billion dollars one 918 00:54:42.920 --> 00:54:47.960 software check one work with software engineers, we find fourteen 919 00:54:48.440 --> 00:54:55.840 billion dollars annually in fraud. Thank god, somebody's finally doing 920 00:54:55.920 --> 00:54:59.159 this work. It doesn't really seem that overly complicated when 921 00:54:59.199 --> 00:55:00.880 you go ahead and sh air of the data among 922 00:55:00.960 --> 00:55:04.400 these various agencies. Hmmm, I'm surprised no one thought of 923 00:55:04.480 --> 00:55:08.360 that before six twenty six fifty five K see detalk 924 00:55:08.400 --> 00:55:11.599 station local stories coming up.

The number one installer in the Tristate 931 00:55:28.480 --> 00:55:31.280 for tankless water heater is something I've been focusing on lately. 932 00:55:31.719 --> 00:55:33.599 Because you never run out of hot water with a 933 00:55:33.639 --> 00:55:37.239 tankless water heater, you will save money. They only operate 934 00:55:37.320 --> 00:55:39.599 when you hot water is on, so it's not like 935 00:55:39.679 --> 00:55:42.480 this constant heating of that tank of water that you 936 00:55:42.599 --> 00:55:45.119 got with your tank system. They last longer than the 937 00:55:45.199 --> 00:55:49.519 tanks by five plus years, so multiple reasons and huge 938 00:55:49.519 --> 00:55:51.519 space savers.

And it's described 981 00:58:13.760 --> 00:58:16.199 here in the inquire Scott Wortman reporting one of the 982 00:58:16.239 --> 00:58:18.960 potential strategies, and this was part of his recall of 983 00:58:19.079 --> 00:58:23.760 the council's memo stepping up enforcement of the city's curfew. 984 00:58:26.639 --> 00:58:29.679 It's on the books already and one might easily ask 985 00:58:29.760 --> 00:58:32.320 the question why it's not being enforced now, considering the 986 00:58:32.559 --> 00:58:36.880 gangs of teenagers roaming around in spite of the curfew. 987 00:58:37.480 --> 00:58:40.000 We have a ten pm to five am curfew for 988 00:58:40.119 --> 00:58:42.639 unaccompanied people out of the age of sixteen and midnight 989 00:58:42.719 --> 00:58:47.440 to five am for people sixteen to eighteen. Purval said 990 00:58:47.599 --> 00:58:50.920 enforcement is tricky. He said, the curfew is absolutely on 991 00:58:51.079 --> 00:58:54.960 the table and a tool that we can deploy, suggesting 992 00:58:55.199 --> 00:59:00.559 I guess that it hasn't been deployed. He obviously there's 993 00:59:00.559 --> 00:59:03.280 a lot of logistical challenge with detaining kids, holding them 994 00:59:03.320 --> 00:59:05.440 until their parents can pick them up or until they 995 00:59:05.480 --> 00:59:08.199 can be transported home. Yeah, and as I pointed out 996 00:59:08.199 --> 00:59:11.480 earlier in the program, the judicial arm of law enforcement, 997 00:59:11.519 --> 00:59:14.199 which won't hold them anyway and will let them free. 998 00:59:14.320 --> 00:59:17.480 We've heard that many times. Anyway, a meeting starts at 999 00:59:17.559 --> 00:59:20.119 noon in council chambers. In addition to the city curfew, 1000 00:59:20.199 --> 00:59:22.360 council is going to be discussed putting more restrictions on 1001 00:59:22.480 --> 00:59:25.960 when youth can be in parks and in the banks 1002 00:59:26.000 --> 00:59:28.360 at the entertainment complex, as well as ways to increase 1003 00:59:28.400 --> 00:59:32.079 police visibility per of all. Speaking with the Enquirer, I 1004 00:59:32.079 --> 00:59:34.119 think it's important to have a public opportunity for council 1005 00:59:34.119 --> 00:59:36.639 members to ask questions, tough questions, and really provide a 1006 00:59:36.719 --> 00:59:39.519 pressure test on strategies that we're deploying. And I can 1007 00:59:39.599 --> 00:59:42.800 speak for the chief and the city manager that would 1008 00:59:42.880 --> 00:59:45.639 welcome that kind of scrutiny, as this is an all 1009 00:59:45.719 --> 00:59:50.079 hands on deck solution situation. Well, I just I have 1010 00:59:50.239 --> 00:59:52.320 to sort of ask out loud, will they listen to 1011 00:59:52.480 --> 00:59:55.599 anybody's complaints or concerns or will they be staring at 1012 00:59:55.639 --> 00:59:58.719 their cell phones during this open opportunity for people to 1013 00:59:58.880 --> 01:00:04.199 chime in and comment as is typically the case, And 1014 01:00:04.280 --> 01:00:06.719 will they help law enforcement enforce the curfew? If you're 1015 01:00:06.719 --> 01:00:08.880 going to send them out to enforce the curfew. There's 1016 01:00:08.880 --> 01:00:13.360 got to be follow up since a police lieutenant is 1017 01:00:13.440 --> 01:00:15.960 suing the city claiming he's been blocked from a promotion 1018 01:00:16.199 --> 01:00:20.559 for by a retaliatory scheme that's in the complaints stemming 1019 01:00:20.599 --> 01:00:22.559 from the departments in his words, or in the complaints 1020 01:00:22.599 --> 01:00:27.159 where it's unlawful race and gender discrimination. Lieutenant Andrew Mitchell 1021 01:00:27.320 --> 01:00:29.239 sent in his lawsuit that he's next in line to 1022 01:00:29.280 --> 01:00:32.440 become a police captain, but Police Chief Threes of THIGI 1023 01:00:32.639 --> 01:00:36.280 is refusing to fill other open spots that would clear 1024 01:00:36.360 --> 01:00:39.239 his path through promotion. Captain the highest rank in the 1025 01:00:39.280 --> 01:00:41.239 since a police department that officers are going to achieve 1026 01:00:41.320 --> 01:00:44.840 through taking a promotional eligibility exam. Once an officer takes 1027 01:00:44.920 --> 01:00:48.199 that test, the scorers are ranked. Top score is promoted 1028 01:00:48.239 --> 01:00:50.360 as soon as there is an opening, then over the 1029 01:00:50.400 --> 01:00:52.559 course of the next year, the people lower on the 1030 01:00:52.599 --> 01:00:55.719 list are promoted as there are openings. Mitchell plays sixth 1031 01:00:55.760 --> 01:00:57.880 on the promotion list, which is included in the court 1032 01:00:57.920 --> 01:01:00.639 filings in the lawsuit that lists set to this month. 1033 01:01:00.679 --> 01:01:03.199 If that happened, he would have had to retest and 1034 01:01:03.639 --> 01:01:05.760 any promotions would start again from the top of the 1035 01:01:05.840 --> 01:01:08.960 new list generated by that test. Because of the lawsuit, 1036 01:01:09.000 --> 01:01:16.440 the Skiddy agree to a standstill order. Mitchell's lawyer, Zachary Gotsman, 1037 01:01:17.400 --> 01:01:19.920 explained that the case will continue in court. If the 1038 01:01:19.960 --> 01:01:22.599 court determines THEGI has created an opening in the ranks, 1039 01:01:22.719 --> 01:01:25.239 Mitchell will be able to take his promotion regardless of 1040 01:01:25.280 --> 01:01:29.360 whether the list is expired, Mitchell claims. Mitchell claims thegi's 1041 01:01:29.360 --> 01:01:32.280 hostile to him in part because he is a party 1042 01:01:32.400 --> 01:01:35.320 to a lawsuit that claims there is a bias against 1043 01:01:35.440 --> 01:01:40.840 white lieutenants. He, along with three other white officers, sued 1044 01:01:40.880 --> 01:01:43.280 in May, stating that white lieutenants are passed over for 1045 01:01:43.400 --> 01:01:46.559 preferred assignments because the city and the chief make quote 1046 01:01:46.599 --> 01:01:50.519 decisions that are preferable to women and minorities and to 1047 01:01:50.639 --> 01:01:56.039 the exclusion of white men.

Hasn't been any legislation on immigration since 1091 01:04:03.079 --> 01:04:05.880 the nineties. No, you didn't need to pass legislation. You 1092 01:04:05.960 --> 01:04:07.840 just needed to decide you were going to close the border. 1093 01:04:09.639 --> 01:04:12.639 So that's been effective. The deportation efforts. Say what you 1094 01:04:12.679 --> 01:04:15.039 want about the ice raids. They are going after some 1095 01:04:15.679 --> 01:04:22.679 just absolutely horrific, horrific scumbag people. Now, sometimes other illegal 1096 01:04:22.719 --> 01:04:24.719 immigrants get caught up in it when they're going after 1097 01:04:24.840 --> 01:04:27.199 bad people. If you're hanging around with bad people, you're 1098 01:04:27.280 --> 01:04:29.360 also an illegal immigrant, but you're not one of the 1099 01:04:29.400 --> 01:04:31.960 bad people. Sorry, you're probably gonna get caught up in it. 1100 01:04:32.760 --> 01:04:36.039 But in the final analysis, you're not here legally, so 1101 01:04:36.119 --> 01:04:38.280 they have the ability and the right to process you 1102 01:04:38.360 --> 01:04:40.280 through the system and boot you out of the country. 1103 01:04:40.800 --> 01:04:46.639 That's just reality. Another thing that I think drove many 1104 01:04:46.639 --> 01:04:48.760 people to the polls in support of the Trump administration 1105 01:04:48.960 --> 01:04:52.119 was this whole idea that men can be women, and 1106 01:04:52.159 --> 01:04:53.920 that you and I are supposed to accept that just 1107 01:04:54.000 --> 01:04:56.840 because someone says I am a woman, even though they 1108 01:04:56.880 --> 01:04:58.800 have a twig in berries, makes them a woman and 1109 01:04:58.840 --> 01:05:00.320 therefore can compete in sp sports. 1110 01:05:00.880 --> 01:05:00.920 No. 1111 01:05:01.159 --> 01:05:03.400 Donald Trump's signed an executive order that effect right out 1112 01:05:03.400 --> 01:05:03.760 of the gate. 1113 01:05:03.920 --> 01:05:05.119 No, that is not the case. 1114 01:05:08.199 --> 01:05:12.639 Executive Order fourteen to a one outline, the federal government 1115 01:05:12.679 --> 01:05:15.199 would rescind all funds from programs that deprive women and 1116 01:05:15.360 --> 01:05:22.440 girls of fair athletic opportunities, recognizing two sexes, male and female. 1117 01:05:22.519 --> 01:05:25.519 These sexes are not changeable, they say, and are grounded 1118 01:05:25.599 --> 01:05:28.920 in fundamental and incontrovertible reality. Sex shall refer to an 1119 01:05:28.960 --> 01:05:32.800 individual's immutable biological classification is either a male or female. 1120 01:05:33.159 --> 01:05:36.719 Sex is not a synonym for and does not include 1121 01:05:36.760 --> 01:05:41.559 the concept of gender identity. Well guess what. The US 1122 01:05:41.639 --> 01:05:46.039 Olympic and Paralympic Committee USOPC has now issued a policy 1123 01:05:46.159 --> 01:05:52.000 update update conforming with President Trump's Donald Trump's order to 1124 01:05:52.119 --> 01:05:55.440 keep men out of women's sports. Acre to the organization 1125 01:05:55.679 --> 01:05:59.559 in the link, USPC is committed to protecting opportunities for 1126 01:05:59.599 --> 01:06:05.519 athlete participating in sport. Alongside the International Olympic Committee, International 1127 01:06:05.599 --> 01:06:10.639 Paralymic Committee, and the fifty US national governing bodies, USOPC 1128 01:06:10.840 --> 01:06:13.719 said it will ensure that women have a fair and 1129 01:06:13.960 --> 01:06:18.480 safe competition environment consistent with the Executive Order fourteen to 1130 01:06:18.480 --> 01:06:23.639 two oh one. Compliance to the order means of US 1131 01:06:23.719 --> 01:06:28.119 Athletics athletes identifying as transgender women are now barred from 1132 01:06:28.159 --> 01:06:30.559 competing in the women's events at the twenty twenty eight Olympics. 1133 01:06:31.159 --> 01:06:34.000 They're allowed to compete, of course, in equivalent mail events, 1134 01:06:34.079 --> 01:06:36.400 so they can still engage in sport. They just can't 1135 01:06:36.519 --> 01:06:38.719 pretend to be a woman and run around and compete 1136 01:06:38.760 --> 01:06:43.559 against women. US Olympic officials told the national governing bodies 1137 01:06:43.599 --> 01:06:46.880 that they would need to implement the Athletic Safety Policy, 1138 01:06:46.960 --> 01:06:49.920 adding that quote, the USOPC has engaged in a series 1139 01:06:49.960 --> 01:06:53.920 of respectful and constructive conversations with the federal officials since 1140 01:06:53.960 --> 01:06:57.440 Trump signed the order. Now, this policy update means that 1141 01:06:57.519 --> 01:07:00.920 local sports clubs also need to bring their rules into 1142 01:07:00.960 --> 01:07:05.280 line with the executive order. So there is something else 1143 01:07:05.360 --> 01:07:08.679 that's been accomplished. And this is something else that doesn't 1144 01:07:08.719 --> 01:07:10.719 poll real well for Democrats. Has seemed to be the 1145 01:07:10.800 --> 01:07:13.320 ones embracing the concept that men just by uttering the 1146 01:07:13.360 --> 01:07:16.800 words I am a woman actually become a woman. I mean, 1147 01:07:17.079 --> 01:07:20.039 no one in their right mind really truly believes that, 1148 01:07:20.199 --> 01:07:25.800 do they. It just flies in the face of logic 1149 01:07:25.880 --> 01:07:28.280 and reasons so much, it's just hard to believe that 1150 01:07:28.360 --> 01:07:33.840 that was ever even a thing. So mission accomplished on that, 1151 01:07:33.880 --> 01:07:35.679 at least in so far as the Olympics are concerned. 1152 01:07:38.119 --> 01:07:43.880 And good, good six forty five.

So I was so impressed with Rino's Shield. 1169 01:08:37.439 --> 01:08:40.000 We went and got the my daughter's barn painted with it. 1170 01:08:40.039 --> 01:08:42.479 They've got this really big barn on their farmat and 1171 01:08:42.600 --> 01:08:47.319 it looked terrible, so now it doesn't.

They all had shirts on 1192 01:09:45.520 --> 01:09:49.239 it says turn Chicago red and telling the mayor what 1193 01:09:49.359 --> 01:09:49.800 they thought. 1194 01:09:49.920 --> 01:09:52.720 He's staring through him and staid looking at him. He's 1195 01:09:52.760 --> 01:09:54.319 like like, I don't care what you say. 1196 01:09:54.520 --> 01:09:55.199 You're stupid. 1197 01:09:55.359 --> 01:09:59.359 Yeah, I know better exactly, and a lot of mayors 1198 01:09:59.600 --> 01:10:02.720 said a lot better they would, And you know, that's it. 1199 01:10:02.800 --> 01:10:04.600 That's the problem that they're facing right now. There's all 1200 01:10:04.640 --> 01:10:07.920 this post mortem. Trump got re elected popular he won 1201 01:10:08.000 --> 01:10:10.199 the popular vote, and they're all looking around the room 1202 01:10:10.279 --> 01:10:12.319 wondering how in the hell that could possibly happen. They 1203 01:10:12.359 --> 01:10:14.880 haven't looked in the mirror and started talking specifically about 1204 01:10:15.199 --> 01:10:19.600 the policies that they pushed that are losing them voters. 1205 01:10:20.079 --> 01:10:24.760 This transgender thing with sports, that's one. The open borders 1206 01:10:24.800 --> 01:10:28.199 that cost so much pain for so many cities in 1207 01:10:28.279 --> 01:10:33.199 terms of budget and overcrowding of schools and exacerbating a 1208 01:10:33.279 --> 01:10:36.720 housing crisis. I mean a lot of problems as a 1209 01:10:36.800 --> 01:10:40.000 consequence of that. And you saw a lot of these 1210 01:10:40.079 --> 01:10:43.119 town halls when they would have town halls, when elected officials, 1211 01:10:43.199 --> 01:10:46.039 like in Chicago, for example, sid dark Blues Chicago, they 1212 01:10:46.079 --> 01:10:48.600 wouldn't vote for Republican To save their souls, all of 1213 01:10:48.680 --> 01:10:51.880 the constituents are there screaming at the elected officials about 1214 01:10:51.880 --> 01:10:57.479 the immigration problem, a problem that the citizenry didn't vote for. 1215 01:10:57.600 --> 01:11:00.560 In terms of sanctuary City's a policy that was just adopted, 1216 01:11:02.920 --> 01:11:07.399 So go up and down the line. And then then 1217 01:11:08.239 --> 01:11:10.000 I think about the you know, the Big Beautiful Bill 1218 01:11:10.119 --> 01:11:14.319 and the fact that middle America kept their tax cut. 1219 01:11:17.399 --> 01:11:19.520 That was one of the Quinnipiac questions about the Big 1220 01:11:19.520 --> 01:11:21.680 Beautiful What is your perception the Big Beautiful Bill? Are 1221 01:11:21.680 --> 01:11:24.159 you gonna benefit from it or not? In the majority 1222 01:11:24.199 --> 01:11:29.079 of people said no, I'm not, Yes you are. Democrats 1223 01:11:29.159 --> 01:11:31.720 keep focusing on the twenty percent cap on corporate taxes, 1224 01:11:31.760 --> 01:11:33.640 But what about the tax cuts that you got that 1225 01:11:33.720 --> 01:11:36.319 would have kicked in. You would have been paying thousands 1226 01:11:36.399 --> 01:11:39.640 of dollars more in taxes as a middle class American 1227 01:11:39.760 --> 01:11:42.239 had they not passed the Big Beautiful Bill. That's money 1228 01:11:42.279 --> 01:11:47.880 in your pocket. I call that a benefit. You get 1229 01:11:47.920 --> 01:11:49.880 to control the direction of where that money goes, not 1230 01:11:50.039 --> 01:11:52.600 some idiot in Washington, d c. That wants to send 1231 01:11:52.640 --> 01:12:04.119 it to some stupid program overseas. And I like the 1232 01:12:04.199 --> 01:12:06.479 direction that the Republican Party is going on getting rid 1233 01:12:06.479 --> 01:12:08.560 of these energy tax cut It's get a load of 1234 01:12:08.600 --> 01:12:11.920 this one that fell out of my seat when I 1235 01:12:11.960 --> 01:12:14.159 saw this. Ac Cording to a recently published New York 1236 01:12:14.199 --> 01:12:20.920 Post report, Biden administration massively puts for the United States 1237 01:12:21.000 --> 01:12:27.680 Postal Service to electrify their delivery trucks. Back in twenty 1238 01:12:27.720 --> 01:12:30.079 twenty two, the United States Postal Service announcement it expects 1239 01:12:30.079 --> 01:12:33.640 to acquire at least sixty six thousand battery electric delivery 1240 01:12:33.720 --> 01:12:36.000 vehicles as part of its one hundred and six thousand 1241 01:12:36.119 --> 01:12:40.840 vehicle acquisition plan for deliveries between now and twenty twenty eight. 1242 01:12:40.920 --> 01:12:43.600 Vehicles purchase is part of an anticipated plan will be 1243 01:12:43.680 --> 01:12:46.960 beginning to replace the Postal Services aging delivery feed of 1244 01:12:47.079 --> 01:12:50.319 over twenty two hundred and twenty thousand vehicles. Fine, there's 1245 01:12:50.359 --> 01:13:00.399 your plan. We're gonna buy green electric vehicles. However, the 1246 01:13:00.439 --> 01:13:03.600 Biden administration's planned to create this green fleet of postal 1247 01:13:03.680 --> 01:13:08.520 vehicles has resulted in a mere two hundred and fifty 1248 01:13:08.800 --> 01:13:14.199 electric mail trucks in just over two years, this after 1249 01:13:14.479 --> 01:13:17.880 already showing out taxpayer funds meant to build thousands of them. 1250 01:13:19.159 --> 01:13:23.640 Described as the nearly ten billion dollar project calling for 1251 01:13:23.720 --> 01:13:26.680 more than thirty five thousand, actually it's forty five thousand 1252 01:13:26.720 --> 01:13:29.640 battery powered US Postal Service vehicles to be completed by 1253 01:13:30.560 --> 01:13:32.960 September twenty twenty eight. Ac quard to the original announcement, 1254 01:13:34.159 --> 01:13:36.920 funded in part by three billion dollars in funding from 1255 01:13:37.600 --> 01:13:40.840 the Inflation Reduction Act, which was basically the Green New 1256 01:13:40.880 --> 01:13:43.800 Deal was not inflation reduction Act. It actually increased inflation 1257 01:13:43.840 --> 01:13:47.560 as we all know so far, much like the electric 1258 01:13:47.640 --> 01:13:50.000 charging stations that weren't built on the billions of dollars 1259 01:13:50.039 --> 01:13:55.920 allocated for that. The first the dispersed funds around what 1260 01:13:56.199 --> 01:13:58.520 dispersed funds? That means money that's gone out the door 1261 01:13:58.560 --> 01:14:04.600 from the Inflation Reduction Act one point seven billion dollars ergo. 1262 01:14:05.039 --> 01:14:07.479 Each of the two hundred and fifty trucks acquired have 1263 01:14:07.640 --> 01:14:10.760 cost you, the American taxpayer a minimum of six point 1264 01:14:10.880 --> 01:14:20.439 eight million dollars each. I gotta kick out a zero 1265 01:14:20.520 --> 01:14:22.640 hedge crunch the numbers on this. So the federal government 1266 01:14:22.720 --> 01:14:25.920 is only four hundred and forty forty four thousand, seven 1267 01:14:25.960 --> 01:14:30.640 hundred and fifty vehicles short of its forty five thousand 1268 01:14:30.760 --> 01:14:33.279 vehicle goals. So at this rate purchasing around eighty three 1269 01:14:33.319 --> 01:14:35.359 electric mail trucks a year, which is the rate that 1270 01:14:35.399 --> 01:14:38.279 it's currently going at, it'll take the government another five 1271 01:14:38.399 --> 01:14:42.800 hundred and thirty nine years to finalize the plans, way 1272 01:14:42.880 --> 01:14:47.600 beyond the projected date of twenty twenty eight. Actually that 1273 01:14:47.600 --> 01:14:51.079 will result in them completing the goal by the year 1274 01:14:51.199 --> 01:14:55.600 twenty five sixty four. There's your government at work. Efficiency 1275 01:14:55.800 --> 01:14:58.920 absolutely always delivered by a government program. Six to fifty 1276 01:14:58.920 --> 01:15:02.199 five fifty five the talk station after the news, the 1277 01:15:02.319 --> 01:15:06.039 Big Picture with Jack Aviden. Who else was not considered presidential? 1278 01:15:06.079 --> 01:15:09.319 A question that will be addressed by the brilliant Jack 1279 01:15:09.359 --> 01:15:11.319 avid And that's next that you can stick around. 1280 01:15:11.600 --> 01:15:14.039 From a full rundown and the biggest ten lines there's 1281 01:15:14.119 --> 01:15:15.960 minutes away at the top of the hour. 1282 01:15:16.000 --> 01:15:16.880 I'm giving you a fact. 1283 01:15:16.920 --> 01:15:20.840 Now the Americans should fifty five cares the talk station. 1284 01:15:21.319 --> 01:15:22.279 This report is fun. 1285 01:15:22.479 --> 01:15:24.279 Guys, get to talk to Jack avid In and get 1286 01:15:24.479 --> 01:15:27.359 his dose of his brilliance. Welcome back, my dear friend, 1287 01:15:27.439 --> 01:15:29.640 Jack Avident. It's always a pleasure having you on the program. 1288 01:15:30.439 --> 01:15:33.800 Oh thanks for having me back. You and I can 1289 01:15:33.920 --> 01:15:38.039 discuss anything, and we do, but I normally avoid talking 1290 01:15:38.279 --> 01:15:42.039 politics with family, apart from Amesley and one of our 1291 01:15:42.119 --> 01:15:44.960 two cats. The other cat is a Marxist wants to 1292 01:15:45.039 --> 01:15:48.000 eat his sister's food, believing, as you like to say, 1293 01:15:48.439 --> 01:15:52.720 two each according to his needs. However, a conversation with 1294 01:15:52.840 --> 01:15:57.319 a cousin got us comparing Donald Trump with Ronald Reagan. 1295 01:15:58.159 --> 01:16:02.520 This cousin is extremely smart and highly successful, and almost 1296 01:16:02.640 --> 01:16:08.520 alone among my relatives. He supports Trump, except he wishes 1297 01:16:08.600 --> 01:16:12.920 that Donald could be as presidential as the Gipper. Now, 1298 01:16:13.039 --> 01:16:15.560 most people who voted for Donald knew they were getting 1299 01:16:15.640 --> 01:16:19.680 Don Rickles and did not care, because unlike Democrats, who 1300 01:16:19.760 --> 01:16:24.119 care about nothing except tearing down other people and securing 1301 01:16:24.119 --> 01:16:28.439 their own power, we care about policy. So yes, it's true. 1302 01:16:29.560 --> 01:16:33.079 Reagan was a much more polished speaker than Trump. He 1303 01:16:33.199 --> 01:16:36.680 did not tweet or send out intemperate truths because there 1304 01:16:36.760 --> 01:16:40.359 was no social media back then. Still, it's easy to forget, 1305 01:16:40.439 --> 01:16:44.199 my friend, how much abuse Ronald Reagan took in his 1306 01:16:44.520 --> 01:16:50.760 own time from both Democrats and establishment Republicans alike. Critics 1307 01:16:50.840 --> 01:16:54.920 dismissed him as a crummy be movie actor upstaged by 1308 01:16:55.039 --> 01:16:59.159 a chimp in bedtime for Bonzo. Reagan was shunned by 1309 01:16:59.199 --> 01:17:04.920 the establishment for supporting Barry Goldwater after Governor Reagan loosed 1310 01:17:04.960 --> 01:17:08.479 the National Guard on protesters in Berkeley. He was attacked 1311 01:17:08.520 --> 01:17:13.359 as a bloodthirsty cowboy for installing medium range missiles in 1312 01:17:13.439 --> 01:17:17.800 Eastern Europe and proposing space based missile defense that critics 1313 01:17:17.840 --> 01:17:21.920 dismissed as star wars. Reagan was called a moron who 1314 01:17:22.000 --> 01:17:25.319 got his ideas from science fiction, even though those ideas 1315 01:17:25.640 --> 01:17:29.880 helped bring down the Soviet Union. A British TV show 1316 01:17:30.239 --> 01:17:33.000 you can still find it on YouTube. It had puppets 1317 01:17:33.119 --> 01:17:36.800 and was called Spitting Image. They made Reagan look more 1318 01:17:36.920 --> 01:17:41.720 feeble than Joe Biden wandering into the rainforest and when 1319 01:17:41.760 --> 01:17:44.840 he made real mistakes, and yes, Reagan did make some 1320 01:17:44.960 --> 01:17:48.720 real mistakes, like failing to protect our marine barracks in Lebanon. 1321 01:17:49.279 --> 01:17:54.760 Critics howled for the Keepper's impeachment and Brian It wasn't 1322 01:17:54.880 --> 01:17:59.840 just Ronald Reagan. Abraham Lincoln was caricatured as an ape 1323 01:18:00.439 --> 01:18:04.039 for imposing a draft during the Civil War, for ignoring 1324 01:18:04.159 --> 01:18:07.279 habeas corpus their right to do process before he can 1325 01:18:07.319 --> 01:18:10.640 be held in jail, for letting Sherman burn the South, 1326 01:18:11.159 --> 01:18:14.760 and for freeing the slaves. Critics in the North and 1327 01:18:15.000 --> 01:18:19.520 South one of Lincoln shots. They got their wish folks. 1328 01:18:20.640 --> 01:18:25.000 Even George Washington was abused in his own time by 1329 01:18:25.079 --> 01:18:28.840 his own vice president. We're not talking Mike Pitts. John 1330 01:18:28.960 --> 01:18:32.520 Adams claimed, the commander of the Revolutionary forces, who then 1331 01:18:32.800 --> 01:18:38.399 presided over our constitutional convention, was unanimously elected. Our first president, 1332 01:18:38.880 --> 01:18:42.039 the president who defined that office by the way he 1333 01:18:42.199 --> 01:18:46.199 respected the other branches of government. His own vice president 1334 01:18:46.359 --> 01:18:52.399 wrote that George Washington and I quote was too illiterate, unlearned, 1335 01:18:53.039 --> 01:18:58.720 unread for his station and reputation end quote, even worse. 1336 01:18:59.600 --> 01:19:03.319 N An Adams, a puritanical prig if every there was one, 1337 01:19:03.800 --> 01:19:08.199 also thought that the father of our country danced too much. 1338 01:19:09.600 --> 01:19:12.640 My point, Brian, is that it's tempting to stick a 1339 01:19:12.760 --> 01:19:16.119 halo over presidents who were a long gun and a 1340 01:19:16.239 --> 01:19:18.520 pitchfork into the hands of the one we have now. 1341 01:19:19.159 --> 01:19:24.159 Donald Trump is an epic personality, and he has epic flaws. 1342 01:19:24.720 --> 01:19:29.279 He thinks and acts big, he talks even bigger. We 1343 01:19:29.439 --> 01:19:35.000 cannot separate all that. A more elegant man like Mitt Romney, 1344 01:19:35.079 --> 01:19:39.439 who puts the establishment at ease. President Mitt Romney would 1345 01:19:39.520 --> 01:19:43.159 never have taken the chances that Trump, Reagan, Lincoln, and 1346 01:19:43.439 --> 01:19:48.680 Washington did. Remember Mitt Mitt couldn't even stand up to 1347 01:19:48.760 --> 01:19:53.600 CNN's moderator Candy Crowley during a presidential debate, and that 1348 01:19:53.840 --> 01:19:57.800 is why Barack Obama won reelection. Look it up, Romney 1349 01:19:57.840 --> 01:20:01.840 had been ahead up until that debate. As we've discussed, 1350 01:20:02.439 --> 01:20:05.920 Trump has grown, He learned a lot after being forced 1351 01:20:05.960 --> 01:20:08.479 into the wilderness for four years. We talked about that 1352 01:20:08.640 --> 01:20:12.119 last week, he was forced to watch Biden's puppet masters 1353 01:20:12.640 --> 01:20:16.000 set fire to this country and the world. Trump also 1354 01:20:16.119 --> 01:20:20.880 learned a lot from being shot. He is now more presidential. Sure, 1355 01:20:21.000 --> 01:20:24.640 we still WinCE at the chaotic way he rolled out tariffs, although, 1356 01:20:24.960 --> 01:20:27.720 as you said last hour, look at what's happening now, 1357 01:20:27.920 --> 01:20:31.960 country after country. Japan just the latest overnight to make 1358 01:20:32.000 --> 01:20:35.119 what looks like a great deal for us and for 1359 01:20:35.239 --> 01:20:38.520 the world. And if there's time, maybe I could say 1360 01:20:38.520 --> 01:20:42.560 a word later about Jeffrey Epstein. But if mistakes and 1361 01:20:42.760 --> 01:20:46.000 personality flaws at the price we have to pay to 1362 01:20:46.119 --> 01:20:50.720 have a colossus as president, a colossus whose policies appeal 1363 01:20:50.800 --> 01:20:54.359 to eighty percent of the American people, that I'm happy, 1364 01:20:54.399 --> 01:20:58.720 Brian to wait for Donald John Trump and Ronald Wilson 1365 01:20:58.800 --> 01:21:02.840 Reagan to be carved onto Mount Rushmore. What do you say, 1366 01:21:04.159 --> 01:21:06.960 I'm just observing. Do you think Trump would be as 1367 01:21:07.039 --> 01:21:10.880 successful in his first six seven months of the presidency 1368 01:21:11.279 --> 01:21:14.520 and accomplished as much had we not suffered through four 1369 01:21:14.640 --> 01:21:18.960 years of Joe Biden and his incompetence. No, that's what 1370 01:21:19.079 --> 01:21:21.479 we talked about last week. And I also don't think 1371 01:21:21.520 --> 01:21:25.680 he would have been as successful if Barack Obama hadn't 1372 01:21:26.159 --> 01:21:28.920 forced us to suffer through those four years. This latest 1373 01:21:29.000 --> 01:21:34.199 proof that Barack Obama treasonously used fake intelligence to torpedo 1374 01:21:34.319 --> 01:21:38.279 Trump and his entire first term. It's an infinitely bigger story, 1375 01:21:38.399 --> 01:21:41.399 as you also said last hour. Yeah, but I'm not 1376 01:21:41.439 --> 01:21:46.079 going to minimize Epstein. Yeah, Stary lives, he and others ruined. Yes, 1377 01:21:46.159 --> 01:21:49.159 I agree with you. After what looked like a cover up, 1378 01:21:49.600 --> 01:21:52.359 the White House now seems to be doubling back somewhat. 1379 01:21:52.600 --> 01:21:55.880 Even with the House shutting down over Epstein. That's not 1380 01:21:55.920 --> 01:21:59.359 going to work for them. Still, let's assume, for the 1381 01:21:59.399 --> 01:22:03.560 sake of art, the Trump told Pambondi as Attorney General 1382 01:22:03.840 --> 01:22:08.159 to move on from the Epstein scandal because it, supposedly, 1383 01:22:08.479 --> 01:22:13.000 critics say, implicates some of his friends or even Trump himself. 1384 01:22:13.359 --> 01:22:16.119 I'm not saying this is true, Brian, But even if 1385 01:22:16.159 --> 01:22:19.720 it were, would that be a reason for us to 1386 01:22:19.880 --> 01:22:23.920 support Democrats on policy, to turn our backs on the 1387 01:22:24.039 --> 01:22:28.960 MAGA movement? The MAGA principles of limited government, secure borders, 1388 01:22:29.239 --> 01:22:36.000 fair trade, peace through strength and yes, transparency, and protecting children, 1389 01:22:36.239 --> 01:22:38.920 which is why so many of us care about Epstein. 1390 01:22:39.520 --> 01:22:43.119 The Biden administration blocked the release of these files for 1391 01:22:43.239 --> 01:22:45.880 four years, and the courts still have to weigh in. 1392 01:22:46.439 --> 01:22:49.800 But regardless of who may be implicated, we must seek 1393 01:22:49.880 --> 01:22:53.680 the truth because MACCA is about principles and policies. It 1394 01:22:53.840 --> 01:22:58.000 is not a cult of personality. However epic that personality 1395 01:22:58.079 --> 01:23:02.439 may be focusing one and who's able to deliver on 1396 01:23:02.720 --> 01:23:08.119 policy will keep MAGA populism charging forward, even if individual 1397 01:23:08.279 --> 01:23:11.000 leaders prove to have feet of clay, which I hope 1398 01:23:11.119 --> 01:23:15.680 and believe Donald Trump does not. So let's see how 1399 01:23:15.800 --> 01:23:19.880 his ten billion dollar lawsuit against the Wall Street Journal 1400 01:23:20.000 --> 01:23:23.199 turns out. He's been doing pretty well with these lawsuits 1401 01:23:23.199 --> 01:23:29.279 about lives. Remember, the Journal is the Republican establishment newspaper 1402 01:23:29.399 --> 01:23:33.640 that for decades supported shipping American jobs to China while 1403 01:23:33.720 --> 01:23:38.800 calling for this constitutional amendment that I've often quoted, there 1404 01:23:39.039 --> 01:23:44.279 shall be open borders end quote. That's their constitutional amendment. 1405 01:23:44.720 --> 01:23:48.439 The Wall Street Journal is the enemy of MAGA principles. 1406 01:23:48.920 --> 01:23:52.479 So let's just see if it's story about a supposedly 1407 01:23:52.640 --> 01:23:55.439 lude two thousand and three birthday card which we have 1408 01:23:55.560 --> 01:24:00.520 not yet seen, holds up, and then release any files 1409 01:24:00.560 --> 01:24:04.359 that will not unfairly smear innocent people. 1410 01:24:04.880 --> 01:24:07.600 Yeah, and honestly, Jack, maybe you can make some heads 1411 01:24:07.680 --> 01:24:09.479 or tails out of these seemingly one hundred and eighty 1412 01:24:09.479 --> 01:24:12.520 degree shift on in the Trump administration on those documents. 1413 01:24:12.720 --> 01:24:14.439 I can't quite make heads or tails out of it. 1414 01:24:14.760 --> 01:24:17.039 But let's assume for the sake of discussion that card 1415 01:24:17.680 --> 01:24:22.880 is real. I mean, who cares. It doesn't suggest anything. 1416 01:24:23.520 --> 01:24:26.640 I mean, it's just a sophomoric as it's been described 1417 01:24:26.680 --> 01:24:29.359 as the sophomoric thing that someone like you would expect 1418 01:24:29.439 --> 01:24:32.399 Donald Trump to maybe do. But is it's going to 1419 01:24:32.560 --> 01:24:34.920 undo his administration if he in fact did that? And 1420 01:24:35.000 --> 01:24:37.159 all the pictures of Trump with Epstein, you know, I 1421 01:24:37.239 --> 01:24:38.399 think of my own life and yours. 1422 01:24:38.520 --> 01:24:38.760 Jack. 1423 01:24:39.199 --> 01:24:41.840 I mean, you've been a public figure for decades. I'm 1424 01:24:41.840 --> 01:24:43.920 sure you've gotten a bunch of pictures with a whole 1425 01:24:44.119 --> 01:24:46.000 bunch of people over the years that he didn't even 1426 01:24:46.079 --> 01:24:47.720 really know. Someone had said, hey, can I get a 1427 01:24:47.800 --> 01:24:49.640 picture with you? Jack, and you were like, yeah, sure, 1428 01:24:49.720 --> 01:24:52.199 why not. I've been doing that since I've been on 1429 01:24:52.359 --> 01:24:55.760 radio nineteen years of radio. There are hundreds of pictures 1430 01:24:55.800 --> 01:24:58.279 out there with people that I don't know anything about them. 1431 01:24:58.640 --> 01:25:00.960 What happens if they ended up being a pedophile down 1432 01:25:01.000 --> 01:25:03.000 the road. Does I and me being in a picture 1433 01:25:03.079 --> 01:25:07.199 with them make me a pedophile? No, but I'm sort 1434 01:25:07.239 --> 01:25:10.159 of guilty by the fact that I had some momentary 1435 01:25:10.239 --> 01:25:13.000 connection with them, and by all reports. 1436 01:25:12.680 --> 01:25:13.720 Of dollars a piece. 1437 01:25:13.960 --> 01:25:15.800 I was willing to take a picture with anybody. 1438 01:25:17.359 --> 01:25:17.520 You know. 1439 01:25:17.720 --> 01:25:20.600 Remember again we're talking about two thousand and three. Yeah, 1440 01:25:21.079 --> 01:25:25.039 Donald John Trump was a Democratic real estate developer. By 1441 01:25:25.079 --> 01:25:28.680 two thousand and seven, Trump had banned Epstein from mar 1442 01:25:28.720 --> 01:25:31.920 A Lago we hear because Epstein had made a move 1443 01:25:32.039 --> 01:25:35.279 on one of the guest's daughters. Trump knew he was 1444 01:25:35.359 --> 01:25:37.680 a creep, had nothing to do with him. Nobody is 1445 01:25:37.760 --> 01:25:41.600 suggesting that he went down to that island and had 1446 01:25:41.640 --> 01:25:45.119 anything to do with young girls. I mean, even Alan Dershowitz, 1447 01:25:45.479 --> 01:25:47.479 you know, went down to the island because he was 1448 01:25:47.680 --> 01:25:52.439 Epstein's lawyer. But nobody has offered any proof whatsoever that 1449 01:25:52.520 --> 01:25:55.600 he did anything on tour. Deshwitz went down there with 1450 01:25:55.720 --> 01:25:59.720 his family. It's look, there is something there. We have 1451 01:25:59.760 --> 01:26:02.319 fan in the flames by doing that one to eighty. 1452 01:26:02.680 --> 01:26:05.600 As you say about the files, eventually what can come out, 1453 01:26:05.680 --> 01:26:08.960 what should come out, will come out and we'll see. 1454 01:26:09.279 --> 01:26:12.640 But meantime, let's not forget we're a party of principles 1455 01:26:12.720 --> 01:26:15.800 and policies. We're not a party of personalities. 1456 01:26:17.319 --> 01:26:19.840 Brilliantly stated as always Jack, Here they didn't Yeah, and 1457 01:26:20.479 --> 01:26:23.439 there's the Epstein documents. This is just a punt down 1458 01:26:23.880 --> 01:26:25.880 down the road until September. I don't know why they 1459 01:26:26.000 --> 01:26:29.560 dismissed everybody early when on recess early, just get it done, 1460 01:26:29.640 --> 01:26:31.720 get it over with, vote on it. And the other 1461 01:26:31.800 --> 01:26:34.399 component of this, Jack is I don't understand the one 1462 01:26:34.399 --> 01:26:36.960 to eighty on the Democrats party either. They were not 1463 01:26:37.119 --> 01:26:40.600 pushing for clamoring for releasing of any of these documents previously, 1464 01:26:41.079 --> 01:26:43.479 and just because Trump didn't want eighty, now they're all 1465 01:26:43.560 --> 01:26:47.039 demanding that these documents be released. I mean, I none 1466 01:26:47.079 --> 01:26:49.119 of this makes sense to me, Jack, I'm just totally 1467 01:26:49.199 --> 01:26:50.640 befuddled by it, totally. 1468 01:26:50.720 --> 01:26:54.479 The Democrats. The Democrats are so completely prostrate as a 1469 01:26:54.560 --> 01:26:57.520 party right now. They don't care who goes down in flames. 1470 01:26:57.640 --> 01:26:58.520 Yeah, yes, I. 1471 01:26:58.560 --> 01:27:01.439 Mean that's that's what Fox talks about every single night. 1472 01:27:01.520 --> 01:27:04.640 The Democrats, civil War, Hunter Biden, all the you know 1473 01:27:05.279 --> 01:27:09.840 this point, they don't care. We should care whether innocent 1474 01:27:09.960 --> 01:27:14.439 people are unfairly smeared. But whether that means that, you know, 1475 01:27:14.680 --> 01:27:16.840 we shouldn't be spending more time on this issue, I 1476 01:27:17.399 --> 01:27:19.560 think we should. I think that there, you know, is 1477 01:27:19.640 --> 01:27:22.640 fire there for somebody, and it's a bad look for 1478 01:27:22.960 --> 01:27:26.399 Trump and his administration and the Republican Party with Mike 1479 01:27:26.479 --> 01:27:29.479 Johnson to seem to be sweeping this under the rug. 1480 01:27:29.760 --> 01:27:32.079 Yeah, I agree. The optics are just terrible on him. 1481 01:27:32.159 --> 01:27:34.279 Jack add the tod always a distinct pleasure to get 1482 01:27:34.319 --> 01:27:37.359 your commentary on the Wednesdays beginning at seven oh five 1483 01:27:37.399 --> 01:27:39.159 here in the fifty five care SCEME Morning Show.

Donovan and Neil coming up next talking 1509 01:29:03.560 --> 01:29:08.359 about VETO overrides and what is the Governor's working group. 1510 01:29:08.399 --> 01:29:09.920 We'll find out from Donovan about that. 1511 01:29:10.600 --> 01:29:11.199 And uh. 1512 01:29:13.159 --> 01:29:16.319 Since Jack made a passing reference on Hunter Biden, what 1513 01:29:16.520 --> 01:29:20.479 is that guy on? Is he back on drugs job? 1514 01:29:20.640 --> 01:29:22.520 Did you see the interview with him the other day? 1515 01:29:23.960 --> 01:29:29.680 You heard the highlights talking about unhinged and you're speculating 1516 01:29:29.800 --> 01:29:33.159 why it is. He actually went on record, but he 1517 01:29:33.239 --> 01:29:35.680 did have a lot of things to say about Democrats 1518 01:29:36.960 --> 01:29:43.680 and his policy on immigration. If I became president in 1519 01:29:43.760 --> 01:29:45.960 two years from now or four years from now or 1520 01:29:46.039 --> 01:29:48.920 three years from now, I would pick up the phone 1521 01:29:49.039 --> 01:29:51.800 and call the f wording president of l Salvador and 1522 01:29:51.960 --> 01:29:56.159 say you either f warding send illegal immigrants back or 1523 01:29:56.239 --> 01:30:07.600 I'm going to f warding invade. Okay, all these Democrats 1524 01:30:07.640 --> 01:30:09.880 say you have to talk about and realize that people 1525 01:30:09.960 --> 01:30:15.039 are really upset about illegal immigration. Biden said, well, f you, 1526 01:30:16.800 --> 01:30:19.640 how do you think your hotel room gets cleaned? How 1527 01:30:19.640 --> 01:30:23.079 do you think you have food on your fwording table? 1528 01:30:23.880 --> 01:30:26.000 Who do you think washes your dishes? Who do you 1529 01:30:26.079 --> 01:30:29.640 think does your ffwording garden. He's not a bit of 1530 01:30:29.680 --> 01:30:31.880 a terror, isn't he? And that's where he categorizes the 1531 01:30:31.960 --> 01:30:35.560 illegal immigrants a bunch of servants that work for rich 1532 01:30:35.640 --> 01:30:39.159 people likewhile formerly rich Hunter Biden, who no longer has 1533 01:30:39.239 --> 01:30:43.000 access to capital since his name doesn't mean Jack squat anymore. 1534 01:30:45.239 --> 01:30:48.159 No one's buying Hunter Biden's artwork anymore. I'm not quite 1535 01:30:48.199 --> 01:30:51.119 sure what he was hoping to accomplish by going on 1536 01:30:51.279 --> 01:30:56.000 record with this profanity laced rant. Certainly didn't do himself 1537 01:30:56.079 --> 01:30:58.720 any good, and he certainly went on attack on against 1538 01:30:58.760 --> 01:31:08.760 a lot of Democrats as well. So Podcast America hosts 1539 01:31:08.760 --> 01:31:11.640 who he went after to. A guy named Tommy Veeder 1540 01:31:11.760 --> 01:31:14.600 served as a special assistant to Obama, had this to say, 1541 01:31:14.840 --> 01:31:16.680 It's good to see that Hunter has taken some time 1542 01:31:16.760 --> 01:31:20.079 to process the election, look inward and hold himself accountable 1543 01:31:20.119 --> 01:31:23.159 for how his family's insular dare I say arrogant at 1544 01:31:23.239 --> 01:31:27.399 times approach to politics led to this catastrophic outcome we're 1545 01:31:27.439 --> 01:31:31.600 all living with close quote, Well, you can paint it 1546 01:31:31.600 --> 01:31:34.359 as catastrophic. I think many Americans are pretty happy with 1547 01:31:34.399 --> 01:31:37.760 what Trump's been able to accomplish so far, and he 1548 01:31:37.800 --> 01:31:40.000 accomplished a lot seven twenty five right now fifty five 1549 01:31:40.079 --> 01:31:43.560 K see de Talk station AFP.

I know AFP was behind 1577 01:32:57.359 --> 01:33:00.720 the effort to restore those provisions in the budget that 1578 01:33:00.920 --> 01:33:04.359 allowed for a small measure of potential property tax relief. 1579 01:33:04.439 --> 01:33:06.279 Got to qualify all of it because it wasn't going to, 1580 01:33:06.680 --> 01:33:09.680 you know, immediately result in our property taxes drafting, but 1581 01:33:10.239 --> 01:33:13.039 it would have provided some measure of flexibility going in 1582 01:33:13.119 --> 01:33:17.199 that direction. For whatever reason, Governor de Wines struck those 1583 01:33:17.239 --> 01:33:19.279 provisions from the tax bill, claiming that they needed to 1584 01:33:19.359 --> 01:33:24.199 be looked into more, which is crazy considering the the 1585 01:33:25.119 --> 01:33:27.600 our elected officials have been looking at this for a 1586 01:33:27.760 --> 01:33:29.439 solid year and that's how they came up with a 1587 01:33:29.520 --> 01:33:33.479 list of potential property tax relief provisions, some of which 1588 01:33:33.560 --> 01:33:36.520 were ultimately incorporated into the incorporated into the budget. So 1589 01:33:36.600 --> 01:33:38.399 where are we on this right now, Donovan and Neil? 1590 01:33:39.680 --> 01:33:41.359 Yeah, I mean, I think I think folks are a 1591 01:33:41.399 --> 01:33:46.159 little deflated after that result. But you know the reality 1592 01:33:46.279 --> 01:33:49.600 is we we've over in one of those four provisions, 1593 01:33:50.840 --> 01:33:53.319 and that's an important one. It's a treat and taxation 1594 01:33:53.479 --> 01:33:55.720 provisions and so what that's what that'll do and that 1595 01:33:55.800 --> 01:33:59.279 goes into effect after the Senate passes it, centflaws to 1596 01:33:59.359 --> 01:34:03.800 vote on it. It'll allow remove some of these inflamed 1597 01:34:03.880 --> 01:34:06.720 language like emergency levees, and it'll remove some of the 1598 01:34:06.760 --> 01:34:09.600 confusing language like replacement levees. And so it's an important 1599 01:34:09.640 --> 01:34:12.840 piece in the transparency side of the equation, But on 1600 01:34:12.920 --> 01:34:16.239 the relief side of the equation, we still need things 1601 01:34:16.359 --> 01:34:20.279 to get done. Their studies have been completed, the testimonies 1602 01:34:20.319 --> 01:34:25.000 all filed and delivered, but the governor, as you pointed out, 1603 01:34:25.079 --> 01:34:27.760 had vetoed some of the other provisions that would resolve this. 1604 01:34:27.960 --> 01:34:29.439 And now I think we're sort of in a bit 1605 01:34:29.479 --> 01:34:31.319 of a limbo over the next few weeks till we. 1606 01:34:31.359 --> 01:34:34.039 Come back in the in the fall. Have you seen 1607 01:34:34.159 --> 01:34:37.279 any further statement from Governor de Wine's office about his 1608 01:34:37.479 --> 01:34:40.079 reasons for getting rid of the all three of those 1609 01:34:40.159 --> 01:34:43.399 property tax proposals, again, because they had been what I 1610 01:34:43.560 --> 01:34:47.359 understand is thoroughly discussed and thoroughly studied in advance, and 1611 01:34:47.800 --> 01:34:50.279 out he comes striking those provisions and saying we need 1612 01:34:50.319 --> 01:34:53.239 to look at him further. It just doesn't seem to 1613 01:34:53.279 --> 01:34:54.359 make sense or add up. 1614 01:34:54.439 --> 01:34:58.520 Donovan, Yeah, No, I mean the you know, the committee, 1615 01:34:58.680 --> 01:35:02.119 the select working group of eleven members has been named. 1616 01:35:02.119 --> 01:35:04.199 They're going to meet for the first time tomorrow afternoon 1617 01:35:04.239 --> 01:35:06.479 at two o'clock, and they've got a charge to come 1618 01:35:06.560 --> 01:35:11.079 up with a list of working solutions, workable solutions by 1619 01:35:11.880 --> 01:35:16.039 September thirtieth, you know. But the thing is, I think 1620 01:35:16.079 --> 01:35:18.520 what it ultimately is is because this working group is 1621 01:35:18.560 --> 01:35:22.279 made up of these folks, the thirty nine hundred political 1622 01:35:22.319 --> 01:35:26.359 subdivisions across the state of Ohio, the schools, the libraries, 1623 01:35:26.439 --> 01:35:30.840 the cities, the townships, the villages, the counties. Don't want 1624 01:35:30.880 --> 01:35:33.399 to have to make tough decisions with their funding, with 1625 01:35:33.520 --> 01:35:35.319 their spending. They don't want to have to go back 1626 01:35:35.359 --> 01:35:38.199 to the voters when they need money and make the 1627 01:35:38.239 --> 01:35:40.279 case for why they need money and how they're spending it. 1628 01:35:41.319 --> 01:35:44.039 And so they asked the governor to veto these things. 1629 01:35:44.079 --> 01:35:45.920 He vetoed them on their behalf, and now they have. 1630 01:35:45.960 --> 01:35:50.720 An opportunity, you know, to kill more time without any 1631 01:35:50.760 --> 01:35:52.000 relief in sight for homeowners. 1632 01:35:52.039 --> 01:35:55.079 And so is the reason they didn't want to do 1633 01:35:55.199 --> 01:35:58.479 their own damn job, a miss I think so. 1634 01:35:58.920 --> 01:36:02.520 Honestly, looking back at testimony, looking at comments that they've made, 1635 01:36:03.039 --> 01:36:05.800 and the composition of this work of this Governor's working group, 1636 01:36:06.279 --> 01:36:08.000 I think they just don't want to have to actually 1637 01:36:08.039 --> 01:36:08.560 do their job. 1638 01:36:08.600 --> 01:36:10.960 They're afraid to have to go back to the voters. 1639 01:36:11.880 --> 01:36:14.880 They are sitting on large cash balances because they keep 1640 01:36:14.920 --> 01:36:18.239 taking money from the taxpayer without providing any relief or 1641 01:36:18.319 --> 01:36:24.079 having any mechanism of accountability. And their solution, their solution 1642 01:36:24.680 --> 01:36:27.880 is to shift that tax burden by expanding. 1643 01:36:27.520 --> 01:36:30.159 The homestead exemption is the solution. 1644 01:36:30.000 --> 01:36:34.760 That the Democrats and many of the local government officials 1645 01:36:34.800 --> 01:36:36.960 have put forward. We're just we want to take it 1646 01:36:37.000 --> 01:36:38.880 out of the state general revenue front, and we want 1647 01:36:38.920 --> 01:36:42.079 to use that to provide relief. It's masking the problem, 1648 01:36:42.239 --> 01:36:45.560 it's not solving the spikes that occur, and it's squeezing 1649 01:36:46.319 --> 01:36:48.640 the middle class working families here in the state of Ohio, 1650 01:36:49.159 --> 01:36:51.920 when we could actually deliver some real solutions that smooth 1651 01:36:52.079 --> 01:36:54.640 the problem out, begin to address the issue in the 1652 01:36:54.680 --> 01:36:57.840 long run, and give people some immediate relief. 1653 01:36:58.439 --> 01:37:01.800 Well, I suppose what of this working group that Governor 1654 01:37:01.840 --> 01:37:05.199 to Wine's putting together. I mean, isn't it certainly plausible 1655 01:37:05.239 --> 01:37:07.279 that they come up with the same answers and same 1656 01:37:07.399 --> 01:37:10.640 suggestions as the working group that led to these three 1657 01:37:10.720 --> 01:37:13.399 provisions being in the budget in the first place. In 1658 01:37:13.439 --> 01:37:15.479 other words, the securitest route to back to where we 1659 01:37:15.560 --> 01:37:17.920 were before given. 1660 01:37:18.199 --> 01:37:20.560 So if I laughed, because that's what I actually pointed 1661 01:37:20.560 --> 01:37:22.560 that out to a reporter I was speaking with yesterday 1662 01:37:23.000 --> 01:37:26.720 on this issue. I said, look, you know, this is 1663 01:37:26.760 --> 01:37:30.800 an issue that has been discussed and debated and evaluated 1664 01:37:31.600 --> 01:37:33.760 for the last two and a half years. Right, we 1665 01:37:33.800 --> 01:37:36.640 had to select working group of legislators, folks who can 1666 01:37:36.640 --> 01:37:38.640 actually do something on it, right, compared to this working 1667 01:37:38.680 --> 01:37:42.840 group that can just issue recommendations. They identified twenty one recommendations, 1668 01:37:42.840 --> 01:37:45.680 an eight hundred page report, hundreds of hours of public 1669 01:37:45.760 --> 01:37:48.279 testimony from everybody around the state who has an opinion 1670 01:37:48.319 --> 01:37:50.680 on it. We've shown a light like every corner of 1671 01:37:50.760 --> 01:37:55.079 this issue has been identified. Every possible solution. 1672 01:37:54.840 --> 01:37:57.840 I think has really been vetted and identified. 1673 01:37:57.840 --> 01:37:59.960 Now, maybe these folks have something that hasn't been brought 1674 01:38:00.039 --> 01:38:02.199 to the table, but many of these folks, Brian, have 1675 01:38:02.319 --> 01:38:06.399 been in the ways and means committee rooms testifying or 1676 01:38:06.479 --> 01:38:07.720 providing opinions on. 1677 01:38:07.760 --> 01:38:09.479 This and most of their opinions, Brian. 1678 01:38:10.000 --> 01:38:13.039 Have been They don't like the ideas that the legislature 1679 01:38:13.479 --> 01:38:15.199 is saying they need to do that would actually solve 1680 01:38:15.239 --> 01:38:15.720 the problem. 1681 01:38:16.720 --> 01:38:19.720 Well, not liking them and coming up with an alternative 1682 01:38:19.800 --> 01:38:22.039 that accomplishes what we are looking for, which is some 1683 01:38:22.159 --> 01:38:25.319 sort of property tax relief. I mean, I mean, it's 1684 01:38:25.359 --> 01:38:27.520 one thing to say I reject that because here's the 1685 01:38:27.600 --> 01:38:31.560 reasons why that won't work out. But here's a better idea. 1686 01:38:32.079 --> 01:38:34.920 We're missing that sort of ladder component in this discussion. 1687 01:38:36.359 --> 01:38:38.960 Well, they have the so their better idea is the 1688 01:38:39.039 --> 01:38:41.560 state should pay for this the state. We should shift 1689 01:38:41.600 --> 01:38:44.079 the money that the state collects and income and sales 1690 01:38:44.159 --> 01:38:48.560 tax and gross receipts tax, and the state should cover 1691 01:38:48.760 --> 01:38:52.800 that for the school districts who keep raising their taxes. 1692 01:38:53.960 --> 01:38:57.039 All right, That the devil on that one is in 1693 01:38:57.119 --> 01:38:59.560 the details when the money goes out of Columbus out 1694 01:38:59.560 --> 01:39:00.600 into the world world, though. 1695 01:39:00.600 --> 01:39:00.920 Isn't it. 1696 01:39:02.439 --> 01:39:02.760 It is? 1697 01:39:02.880 --> 01:39:05.159 Well, and again it's just shifting that burden. Right, we're 1698 01:39:05.199 --> 01:39:08.720 not actually addressing the spending problem. We're not actually addressing 1699 01:39:09.439 --> 01:39:12.880 the unvoted tax increase problem that these local governments are 1700 01:39:12.920 --> 01:39:15.760 able to impose upon their citizens without a vote of 1701 01:39:15.800 --> 01:39:18.880 the people. We're just saying, hey, we're gonna actually take 1702 01:39:19.520 --> 01:39:22.239 Columbus's money, and we're gonna we're gonna redistribute it out 1703 01:39:22.479 --> 01:39:25.000 to inefficient governments around the state of Ohio. 1704 01:39:25.119 --> 01:39:25.920 That's lutnoicrous. 1705 01:39:26.000 --> 01:39:29.279 We you know, I shouldn't be paying for poor decision 1706 01:39:29.319 --> 01:39:32.159 making in Cincinnati, right, I agree? If the Democrats and 1707 01:39:32.199 --> 01:39:34.720 the blue city of Cincinnati and Hamilton County aren't able 1708 01:39:34.760 --> 01:39:37.319 to get it done, why should me here in Richland 1709 01:39:37.359 --> 01:39:41.079 County have to pay for that. No, that's and that's 1710 01:39:41.119 --> 01:39:43.520 what this That's what their proposal essentially is is we're 1711 01:39:43.560 --> 01:39:46.199 gonna shift that burden. We're gonna have the state carry 1712 01:39:46.199 --> 01:39:48.760 our water, and we'll just keep going along until the 1713 01:39:48.800 --> 01:39:52.600 next crisis pops. Should solve the crisis now and solve 1714 01:39:52.640 --> 01:39:54.960 it for the next fifty to one hundred years. 1715 01:39:55.199 --> 01:39:57.079 All right, Well, I know America is the prosperity, always 1716 01:39:57.119 --> 01:39:59.880 has action, plans and plans. I'm moving forward. So they 1717 01:40:00.000 --> 01:40:03.800 a couple of provisions are remaining excuse me, remain vetoed 1718 01:40:04.560 --> 01:40:06.560 and bring it back and we'll walk through the next 1719 01:40:06.560 --> 01:40:08.439 step of the analysis, which is, I know there's that 1720 01:40:09.840 --> 01:40:12.319 revoke property taxes in the state of a high proposed 1721 01:40:12.399 --> 01:40:14.640 legislation that's floating around out there. We get an update 1722 01:40:14.640 --> 01:40:16.520 on maybe where that is. But it seems to me, 1723 01:40:16.640 --> 01:40:18.479 as we pause for a moment and bring it back, 1724 01:40:18.760 --> 01:40:21.399 that this is only going to exacerbate the christ to 1725 01:40:21.520 --> 01:40:23.960 just eliminate property tax, which I think takes us to 1726 01:40:24.239 --> 01:40:27.880 probably a more complicated reality. But pause will bring Donovan 1727 01:40:27.880 --> 01:40:29.680 back at seven thirty seven.

They tabled 1779 01:43:02.319 --> 01:43:04.920 them because if they had brought them for a vote 1780 01:43:04.920 --> 01:43:07.800 and they failed, they would not be able to go 1781 01:43:07.880 --> 01:43:09.239 at it again. So you only kind of get one 1782 01:43:09.279 --> 01:43:12.560 bite out of veto override Apple. So there's they're working 1783 01:43:12.680 --> 01:43:14.800 still to come back. They'll be they always come back 1784 01:43:14.920 --> 01:43:18.159 for session days in September October. I think that's when 1785 01:43:18.159 --> 01:43:20.640 they plan to bring those up and address them. There 1786 01:43:21.079 --> 01:43:22.960 you had members who were out of town, members who 1787 01:43:23.159 --> 01:43:26.159 chose not to come back into town, and I think 1788 01:43:26.279 --> 01:43:29.840 just still some more discussion with members about what we're 1789 01:43:29.880 --> 01:43:31.840 trying to do here in the state of Ohio to 1790 01:43:33.159 --> 01:43:34.960 resolve this property tax crisis. 1791 01:43:35.079 --> 01:43:37.600 All right now, as for this working group that Dwine's 1792 01:43:37.600 --> 01:43:42.119 putting together, that that presumably will result in some legislative 1793 01:43:42.279 --> 01:43:44.720 rec changes. I mean, this was all in the budget bills. 1794 01:43:44.720 --> 01:43:47.239 They had to pass that like any legislation. So if 1795 01:43:47.239 --> 01:43:49.359 they come up with some different proposals or even the 1796 01:43:49.439 --> 01:43:52.239 same ones, that's gonna have to be incorporated into legislation 1797 01:43:52.279 --> 01:43:54.079 that'll have to be voted on in the normal process, 1798 01:43:54.199 --> 01:43:56.000 right well, And. 1799 01:43:56.159 --> 01:43:59.479 Unlike the General Assembly, they don't they don't have the 1800 01:43:59.520 --> 01:44:02.640 abilities to This working group can make recommendations till they're 1801 01:44:02.640 --> 01:44:05.960 blue in the face. Ultimately, it takes the legislature introducing 1802 01:44:06.039 --> 01:44:07.640 that as legislation, So you're right, it would have to 1803 01:44:07.640 --> 01:44:10.159 go through that whole process, multiple hearings, which is fine. 1804 01:44:10.199 --> 01:44:12.039 You can move those things along fairly fast. 1805 01:44:13.000 --> 01:44:17.439 But the reality is that working group won't have you know, 1806 01:44:17.600 --> 01:44:20.399 isn't charged to bring recommendations back until September thirtieth. 1807 01:44:21.039 --> 01:44:25.479 Okay, so we're not done with veto override votes that 1808 01:44:25.640 --> 01:44:27.600 you've established. We know that they can come back, and 1809 01:44:27.920 --> 01:44:30.640 they just chose three property ones to go for this time, 1810 01:44:31.199 --> 01:44:34.760 only one got voted on. Fine. Doesn't this present a 1811 01:44:34.920 --> 01:44:38.119 problem if there's a movement out there to have what 1812 01:44:38.199 --> 01:44:40.720 a constitutional amendment here in the state of Ohio circulating 1813 01:44:40.800 --> 01:44:42.920 petitions to get this on the ballot that will let 1814 01:44:43.039 --> 01:44:46.760 us vote whether to eradicate them across the board, this 1815 01:44:47.000 --> 01:44:50.800 might fuel that effort, this delay and this working group, 1816 01:44:50.880 --> 01:44:53.640 and this idea of going through the legislative process with 1817 01:44:53.840 --> 01:44:58.439 whatever future fixes they come up with. I mean, that's 1818 01:44:58.439 --> 01:44:59.960 still a woman in the background, though, isn't it the. 1819 01:45:00.000 --> 01:45:00.279 Lot of it? 1820 01:45:01.399 --> 01:45:02.279 Oh? Absolutely? 1821 01:45:02.560 --> 01:45:04.239 And I mean you're talking to the guy in the 1822 01:45:04.439 --> 01:45:08.239 organization right that's working every day to eliminate Ohio's income tax. 1823 01:45:08.319 --> 01:45:12.640 So you'll find you're going to find me defending keeping. 1824 01:45:12.399 --> 01:45:15.760 Taxes on the books, especially taxes that can kick people 1825 01:45:15.800 --> 01:45:17.359 out of their homes if they're failed to be if 1826 01:45:17.359 --> 01:45:19.199 they fail to pay them right, which is what happens 1827 01:45:19.199 --> 01:45:21.159 if you fail to pay your property taxes even after 1828 01:45:21.840 --> 01:45:24.720 paying off your mortgage, and their ballot initiative is there. 1829 01:45:24.800 --> 01:45:26.880 It's a very it's very simple language. It's not like 1830 01:45:27.199 --> 01:45:28.720 what was that one from last year that was all 1831 01:45:28.920 --> 01:45:31.079 the last couple of years that's been all convoluted. It's 1832 01:45:31.159 --> 01:45:33.800 four lines, Brian, It's four lines that says in a 1833 01:45:33.840 --> 01:45:38.239 constitution property tax essentially you can't put a property tax 1834 01:45:39.039 --> 01:45:41.439 on any homeowner property owner in the state of Ohio. 1835 01:45:41.520 --> 01:45:44.039 And so it's not a complicated ballot initiative. It's a 1836 01:45:44.159 --> 01:45:46.680 very simple message. And those folks are doing great work. 1837 01:45:46.680 --> 01:45:49.399 They're chugging along, they're getting signatures. We've you know, we 1838 01:45:49.960 --> 01:45:51.800 we've seen many of them at the events that will do. 1839 01:45:52.039 --> 01:45:55.720 And I think, you know, if if you're a local, 1840 01:45:56.079 --> 01:45:58.319 if you're a political subdivision, right, who's trying to wait 1841 01:45:58.399 --> 01:46:01.520 up the clock and just slow walk a process. 1842 01:46:01.199 --> 01:46:04.439 Or reform that is long overdue. This is the sort 1843 01:46:04.479 --> 01:46:06.159 of damicles hanging over the head. 1844 01:46:06.479 --> 01:46:08.479 And it's the nuclear option that I think a lot 1845 01:46:08.560 --> 01:46:10.920 of citizens here in the state of Ohio are eager 1846 01:46:11.039 --> 01:46:13.239 to push the red button on. 1847 01:46:13.319 --> 01:46:16.159 If you will well, and I mean, I guess one's 1848 01:46:16.239 --> 01:46:19.600 left with the perplexing question, the complex question of what 1849 01:46:19.920 --> 01:46:23.840 reaction will there be if that actually passes. I mean, 1850 01:46:23.880 --> 01:46:25.760 they're going to have a huge load of work on 1851 01:46:25.800 --> 01:46:27.680 their plates and Columbus trying to figure out how they're 1852 01:46:27.680 --> 01:46:30.920 going to cover the missing now missing property taxes since 1853 01:46:31.359 --> 01:46:35.199 so much of how you know, various entities are funded 1854 01:46:35.239 --> 01:46:38.159 are predicated on property taxes, and these levies, I mean 1855 01:46:38.159 --> 01:46:40.560 you got have to start from scratch with the taxation system. 1856 01:46:42.039 --> 01:46:44.600 Uh yeah, yeah, because you know most I think, what 1857 01:46:44.760 --> 01:46:46.920 is it, twenty eight billion dollars. I believe I might 1858 01:46:46.960 --> 01:46:49.800 be off a little bit there, but is what is 1859 01:46:49.840 --> 01:46:52.279 collected I believe in property taxes across the stateable Hio. 1860 01:46:52.359 --> 01:46:55.079 Between income and sales tax here in the state of Ohio, 1861 01:46:55.199 --> 01:46:57.119 I think that that number comes in in at about 1862 01:46:57.119 --> 01:47:00.399 twenty three to twenty four billion and some change. So, 1863 01:47:01.319 --> 01:47:04.119 and these property taxes don't ever go through Columbus, right, 1864 01:47:04.239 --> 01:47:06.960 That's something important here. None of this money is actually 1865 01:47:07.000 --> 01:47:10.359 managed by Columbus. It is all levied and authorized by 1866 01:47:10.439 --> 01:47:13.000 the local political subdivisions across the state of Ohio. 1867 01:47:13.399 --> 01:47:17.159 And so when you end that, you're ending I mean 1868 01:47:18.720 --> 01:47:21.479 at least fifty or more percent of funding to local 1869 01:47:21.520 --> 01:47:22.319 public schools. 1870 01:47:23.079 --> 01:47:25.600 You're ending significant amount of money that go to your 1871 01:47:25.640 --> 01:47:28.600 townships where most of Highlands live, to pay for police 1872 01:47:28.640 --> 01:47:32.159 and fire services. Our roads will be fine because Governor 1873 01:47:32.199 --> 01:47:35.399 DeWine jacked up our gas taxes in its first tournament office. 1874 01:47:35.479 --> 01:47:38.359 But you know, the other kinds of services that you 1875 01:47:38.520 --> 01:47:41.119 that most people have come to expect and depend on, 1876 01:47:41.720 --> 01:47:44.640 those are in jeopardy. And I think this game of 1877 01:47:44.720 --> 01:47:48.079 chicken that's being played by political subdivisions where we could 1878 01:47:48.079 --> 01:47:51.680 provide people with some relief is ultimately could result in 1879 01:47:52.520 --> 01:47:54.399 just an outright elimination of it. And what we do 1880 01:47:55.199 --> 01:47:58.760 because again, we won't just stop having police and fire 1881 01:47:58.880 --> 01:48:01.960 and schools, right Brian, because those are things most people 1882 01:48:02.039 --> 01:48:04.600 to civilized society count on. We're just going to put 1883 01:48:04.640 --> 01:48:07.159 that burden on somebody else that tax shifts somewhere else. 1884 01:48:07.680 --> 01:48:10.920 I think the real solution is, sorry, the real solution 1885 01:48:11.000 --> 01:48:13.279 I think here is we have too gang much government 1886 01:48:13.319 --> 01:48:15.039 here in the state of Ohio. We really need it 1887 01:48:15.119 --> 01:48:19.880 to start to contract, consolidate and that would begin, I think, 1888 01:48:20.159 --> 01:48:22.720 to solve many, many, many of the problems, not just 1889 01:48:22.840 --> 01:48:26.039 on the property tax issue, but the problems that put 1890 01:48:26.079 --> 01:48:27.479 our state in the bottom. 1891 01:48:27.199 --> 01:48:29.720 Half of the rankings across the country. Yeah, I just 1892 01:48:30.000 --> 01:48:32.279 to think of the confounding mess that would have to 1893 01:48:32.359 --> 01:48:34.760 It would come about as after the elimination of party texts, 1894 01:48:34.760 --> 01:48:36.960 because your local political subdivision is the one that real 1895 01:48:37.000 --> 01:48:39.279 lives to the local schools and parks and everybody are 1896 01:48:39.319 --> 01:48:41.199 then going to have to go to Columbus and lobby 1897 01:48:41.239 --> 01:48:44.920 the elected officials there for their slice of whatever allocation 1898 01:48:45.079 --> 01:48:47.399 is coming out of Columbus under whatever formula they come 1899 01:48:47.479 --> 01:48:49.640 up with, maybe the raise sales tax that cover the 1900 01:48:49.680 --> 01:48:52.359 missing twenty eight billion dollars we're talking about, I don't know, 1901 01:48:52.840 --> 01:48:54.760 but they're going to have to justify themselves to people 1902 01:48:54.800 --> 01:48:58.119 in Columbus, as opposed to justifying themselves the local community 1903 01:48:58.199 --> 01:49:01.319 members in the form of lobbying for or against a levee. 1904 01:49:01.920 --> 01:49:04.800 You think local control would better manage the finances, and 1905 01:49:04.880 --> 01:49:07.279 people in the community would say no, no, no, you've 1906 01:49:07.319 --> 01:49:09.880 got too much money school district. We're not going to 1907 01:49:10.039 --> 01:49:12.920 renew your levee or or or you know, vote for 1908 01:49:12.960 --> 01:49:16.479 this emergency levee or whatever. But I just I just 1909 01:49:16.560 --> 01:49:19.239 can't imagine how complicated it would be if the money 1910 01:49:19.479 --> 01:49:22.399 just resides in Columbus then has to be doled out. 1911 01:49:23.800 --> 01:49:26.279 Well, and that's the ironic thing here, right is those 1912 01:49:26.760 --> 01:49:28.520 and you think, you think the folks in Columbus, the 1913 01:49:28.600 --> 01:49:30.720 legislators in Columbus, are going to want to do any 1914 01:49:30.760 --> 01:49:33.720 favors for the very people who've been lobbying against the 1915 01:49:34.680 --> 01:49:37.479 you know, dozens of solutions they've been putting forward. Uh, 1916 01:49:37.760 --> 01:49:39.560 this is the thing, right, This is this is where 1917 01:49:39.760 --> 01:49:43.439 being you know, looking at this every day, both working 1918 01:49:43.720 --> 01:49:46.359 in the grassroots or at events around the state with 1919 01:49:46.439 --> 01:49:48.800 our team at AFP, and being at the State House 1920 01:49:48.880 --> 01:49:51.880 and seeing the lobbyists and legislators engaging on this issue. 1921 01:49:52.359 --> 01:49:55.720 The solutions here, the solutions have been presented. The legislatures 1922 01:49:55.760 --> 01:49:58.000 put forward some very common sense ones that both provide 1923 01:49:58.039 --> 01:50:03.159 immediate relief and resolve the spikes and triggers that cause 1924 01:50:03.279 --> 01:50:05.720 crises like we've been experiencing for the last few years. 1925 01:50:06.279 --> 01:50:10.000 The problem is the local government lobbyists and it's this 1926 01:50:10.279 --> 01:50:14.000 township trustees, the school board officials, the superintendents, the teachers' 1927 01:50:14.039 --> 01:50:16.199 unions and the rest of them have been lobbying against 1928 01:50:16.199 --> 01:50:19.119 any common sense solution for the last two and a 1929 01:50:19.159 --> 01:50:19.800 half years. 1930 01:50:20.319 --> 01:50:22.479 And maybe they're going to get every. 1931 01:50:22.359 --> 01:50:25.159 Little bit they deserve if property taxes eliminate out right 1932 01:50:25.199 --> 01:50:25.920 in the state of Ohio. 1933 01:50:26.479 --> 01:50:29.960 Certainly is possible. Donovan and Neil Americans for prosperity.

I think the most 2004 01:53:42.279 --> 01:53:45.119 defensive component of the property taxes is it's they're taxing 2005 01:53:45.239 --> 01:53:49.560 us on unrealized gains. You know, I know my house 2006 01:53:49.680 --> 01:53:51.840 is worth more now than when we built it back 2007 01:53:51.920 --> 01:53:55.359 in nineteen ninety eight, but what is it really worth? 2008 01:53:56.640 --> 01:53:58.760 I mean, every three years they do some sort of 2009 01:53:59.279 --> 01:54:01.399 projection about what your house is worth, and then you 2010 01:54:01.680 --> 01:54:03.600 find out that, oh my god, my house is worth 2011 01:54:03.640 --> 01:54:05.560 three hundred thousand dollars more than when I built in. 2012 01:54:05.640 --> 01:54:09.279 I'm getting taxed on that higher rate. Your house is 2013 01:54:09.359 --> 01:54:11.520 only worth what someone's willing to pay for it at 2014 01:54:11.520 --> 01:54:15.359 the moment of sale. So and I understand how the 2015 01:54:15.439 --> 01:54:18.800 process is done, but it's just it's an unrealized gain, 2016 01:54:19.920 --> 01:54:23.000 and yet they're predicating these massive taxes on that. So 2017 01:54:23.319 --> 01:54:25.520 there's an element of fairness that's in there that there's 2018 01:54:25.680 --> 01:54:30.159 is wanting.

I mean the number 2050 01:55:48.359 --> 01:55:53.000 of decorations and award you receive you served in combat. Uh, 2051 01:55:53.600 --> 01:55:56.640 just it's just an amazing thing. Thank you. 2052 01:55:56.760 --> 01:55:56.840 An. 2053 01:55:57.000 --> 01:55:59.000 The privilege is all mine. My parents came to this 2054 01:55:59.119 --> 01:56:02.279 country from Europe and it was a pleasure to serve 2055 01:56:02.359 --> 01:56:04.800 our country. And I want to serve as well Ohioans, 2056 01:56:04.840 --> 01:56:08.239 all Ohioans, and defend these election systems well. 2057 01:56:08.319 --> 01:56:10.960 And that's a critical role of the Secretary of State 2058 01:56:11.119 --> 01:56:13.880 is chief elections offer officer here in the state of Ohio. 2059 01:56:14.640 --> 01:56:17.000 Are you drawn to run to this position because you 2060 01:56:17.159 --> 01:56:19.760 see problems that you're capable of fixing or that you 2061 01:56:19.840 --> 01:56:22.920 have solutions to fix. I mean, what's your motivation on this? 2062 01:56:23.239 --> 01:56:25.359 That's exactly right. You know, you would think coming out 2063 01:56:25.399 --> 01:56:28.039 of the military for twenty years, it's time to just reset. 2064 01:56:28.319 --> 01:56:31.600 Was forever wars we fought, that fought our nation's battles. 2065 01:56:31.680 --> 01:56:34.359 But the fact of the matter is when you look 2066 01:56:34.439 --> 01:56:37.520 at our system, we've lost trust in it. And for 2067 01:56:38.159 --> 01:56:41.239 in fact, just prior to our November election, sixty six 2068 01:56:41.319 --> 01:56:44.119 percent of Americans we're questioning whether we trust in the 2069 01:56:44.159 --> 01:56:46.600 honesty of the result of that election. And I think 2070 01:56:46.640 --> 01:56:48.279 that's the kind of a crisis that we have to 2071 01:56:48.319 --> 01:56:51.399 look at and ask ourselves fundamentally, how are we drifting? 2072 01:56:51.920 --> 01:56:55.319 And when I put my analysis on this issue, and 2073 01:56:55.359 --> 01:56:57.840 I studied our election system deeply in the last two years, 2074 01:56:58.359 --> 01:57:01.079 did a number of call to actions. I went out, 2075 01:57:01.199 --> 01:57:03.520 I tried to pass and work with the legislature as 2076 01:57:03.600 --> 01:57:07.159 a citizen advocate, which is very unusual as a volunteer, 2077 01:57:07.640 --> 01:57:11.960 and put forward enhanced verifiability for voters. I looked at 2078 01:57:12.000 --> 01:57:15.840 the citizenship issue with verification to lack thereof, and I 2079 01:57:15.920 --> 01:57:18.520 even looked at the cybersecurity, which is a specialty in 2080 01:57:18.560 --> 01:57:21.079 a background that I had working at the Pentagon, I said, 2081 01:57:21.199 --> 01:57:23.560 this is not a system that I could understand. Whether 2082 01:57:23.560 --> 01:57:26.399 you're a Republican or a Democrat. You're asking yourself, you know, 2083 01:57:26.520 --> 01:57:30.000 with these global hacks with Microsoft that and their software servers. 2084 01:57:30.439 --> 01:57:32.920 This is recent and you know we're using these services, 2085 01:57:33.560 --> 01:57:35.960 and so we can't just continue to drift down here 2086 01:57:36.079 --> 01:57:39.479 and expect just to keep purchasing and acquiring, spending more 2087 01:57:39.560 --> 01:57:42.760 money on cybersecurity. I think we have to revamp and 2088 01:57:42.840 --> 01:57:44.960 relook at all the variables of it, and I have 2089 01:57:45.079 --> 01:57:47.560 some very concrete solutions. So I'm very much an issue 2090 01:57:47.560 --> 01:57:51.039 based candidate and I have an understanding of the system 2091 01:57:51.159 --> 01:57:52.600 like nobody else in this race right now. 2092 01:57:53.079 --> 01:57:55.159 Well, that's all wonderful. By way of background, one of 2093 01:57:55.199 --> 01:57:57.920 the areas that I always hear about and it sounds so, 2094 01:57:58.199 --> 01:58:03.720 you know, conspiracy theory, electronic voting, and everyone's raising the 2095 01:58:03.760 --> 01:58:06.520 specter what's going on behind the scenes and the software? 2096 01:58:06.560 --> 01:58:09.479 How do I know my my vote has been accurately collected? 2097 01:58:09.720 --> 01:58:12.840 You read articles from other jurisdictions and other townships and 2098 01:58:12.960 --> 01:58:16.199 other states, and you find out that, wow, isn't that strange. 2099 01:58:16.279 --> 01:58:18.439 One minute there's you know, a thousand votes, and then 2100 01:58:18.479 --> 01:58:21.479 five minutes later there's actually fifteen hundred votes. How did 2101 01:58:21.520 --> 01:58:24.159 that happen? Where did this late night dump come from? 2102 01:58:24.560 --> 01:58:27.920 As my vote been accurately recorded by the software? Who 2103 01:58:28.000 --> 01:58:31.239 made the software? Who is looking into that? These are 2104 01:58:31.279 --> 01:58:34.319 all questions that I hear all the time, and yet 2105 01:58:34.319 --> 01:58:36.279 I don't know anything about what's going on behind the scenes. 2106 01:58:36.319 --> 01:58:39.640 I have no personal understanding of how the software has developed, 2107 01:58:39.640 --> 01:58:42.479 who's controlling it, and if anything could be modified or changed. 2108 01:58:43.319 --> 01:58:44.800 And what I can say to that is, you know, 2109 01:58:44.880 --> 01:58:47.319 for the last twenty years, when we have computerized this 2110 01:58:47.600 --> 01:58:50.920 entire infrastructure of elections, what we'd failed to do is 2111 01:58:51.039 --> 01:58:55.520 upfront create independent security assessment review for those various systems, 2112 01:58:55.760 --> 01:58:58.159 so there's not really a third party involved. The vendor 2113 01:58:58.199 --> 01:59:02.079 really drives the entire process. The Secretary of State validates it, 2114 01:59:02.159 --> 01:59:05.319 but that's kind of a self auditing function. And so 2115 01:59:05.479 --> 01:59:07.760 when we look at it, how much is this costing us? 2116 01:59:07.840 --> 01:59:10.239 And what's happened in Ohio in particular, in just the 2117 01:59:10.359 --> 01:59:13.079 last six years, we went from having an eighteen million 2118 01:59:13.119 --> 01:59:15.880 dollar budget in the Secretary of State's office to a 2119 01:59:16.039 --> 01:59:19.199 sixty five million dollar Bush, and that budget has been 2120 01:59:19.279 --> 01:59:22.800 growing because we're having to add these cybersecurity costs which 2121 01:59:22.880 --> 01:59:25.520 now are no longer being funded by the federal government, 2122 01:59:25.880 --> 01:59:28.720 so now our county commissioners are burying that cost. And 2123 01:59:28.840 --> 01:59:30.720 so this whole system is being relooked at. And when 2124 01:59:30.760 --> 01:59:34.199 you look at this administration, Brian President Trump has called 2125 01:59:34.239 --> 01:59:37.920 for decertifying some of these systems because rightfully so the 2126 01:59:38.039 --> 01:59:41.760 technologies from the early two thousands. In the early two thousands, 2127 01:59:41.840 --> 01:59:45.000 there was not even iPhones, so you don't even have 2128 01:59:45.199 --> 01:59:47.920 the ability to meet the degree of what we would 2129 01:59:47.920 --> 01:59:50.960 call zero day threats that are present. And I'll be honest, 2130 01:59:51.119 --> 01:59:55.159 all of these systems are designed to components, the software developers, 2131 01:59:55.239 --> 01:59:58.920 the suppliers from overseas. So why can't we get a 2132 01:59:59.039 --> 02:00:02.960 supply chain in United States If this is truly critical infrastructure, 2133 02:00:03.319 --> 02:00:05.880 if we're truly going to protect that and give people 2134 02:00:05.920 --> 02:00:09.720 assuredness and confidence, which they deserve. That's why I'm advocating 2135 02:00:09.800 --> 02:00:11.960 to go back from a marketing device to pre printed 2136 02:00:12.000 --> 02:00:16.079 hand markable paper ballots. They are unhackable, they're the most transparent, 2137 02:00:16.159 --> 02:00:19.399 that cost about a tenth and Ohio is already doing 2138 02:00:19.439 --> 02:00:20.960 it in some counties I think we need to be 2139 02:00:21.000 --> 02:00:22.279 a leading state and go back to that. 2140 02:00:22.800 --> 02:00:25.359 And I have no argument with that conceptually, what is 2141 02:00:25.439 --> 02:00:28.159 the what are the counterpoints to that? Why why wouldn't 2142 02:00:28.199 --> 02:00:31.720 we do that if we can, in fact restore the 2143 02:00:31.800 --> 02:00:35.560 confidence in the vote and the integrity of the vote 2144 02:00:35.560 --> 02:00:36.359 by going that route. 2145 02:00:36.439 --> 02:00:38.239 I think the fallacy that we have is that we've 2146 02:00:38.239 --> 02:00:40.680 already spent tens of millions of dollars, so we use 2147 02:00:40.760 --> 02:00:43.479 the sunk cost argument. You know, if we have them, 2148 02:00:43.520 --> 02:00:45.840 why shouldn't we use them. Well, if you can't secure 2149 02:00:45.840 --> 02:00:48.279 them past a two thousand and five security control level, 2150 02:00:48.640 --> 02:00:51.359 then you really can't have that degree of confidence. And right, 2151 02:00:51.840 --> 02:00:53.680 you know, so what have we done. We have added 2152 02:00:53.760 --> 02:00:56.399 poll book e poll books, We've got other things, you know. 2153 02:00:56.479 --> 02:00:59.079 In Ohio this last selection, we had to suspend the 2154 02:00:59.199 --> 02:01:01.760 use of electronic poll books, which are checking devices that 2155 02:01:01.840 --> 02:01:04.159 are on polepads. And the reason we had to do that, 2156 02:01:04.279 --> 02:01:07.680 in part is because the routers have been compromised and 2157 02:01:07.840 --> 02:01:12.680 had a cyber vulnerability exposure event. So the very infrastructure 2158 02:01:12.720 --> 02:01:15.159 by which we use in the connectivity of these systems, 2159 02:01:15.199 --> 02:01:17.520 which we're told they're not connected to the internet, but 2160 02:01:17.640 --> 02:01:21.319 the pullbooks are connected in many ways. So that's just 2161 02:01:21.439 --> 02:01:23.720 one facet of what I could offer as a Secretary 2162 02:01:23.760 --> 02:01:27.079 of State is I've worked with information systems technology. I've 2163 02:01:27.119 --> 02:01:30.000 worked at the private sector to secure the Pentagon's top 2164 02:01:30.000 --> 02:01:32.920 of the line, modern modern system equipment. And the truth 2165 02:01:33.039 --> 02:01:35.039 is a lot of our challenges aren't just in the 2166 02:01:35.079 --> 02:01:39.199 realm of cybersecurity. We're failing to properly share information between 2167 02:01:39.239 --> 02:01:41.760 the Secretary of State's office and the Board of Elections, 2168 02:01:42.119 --> 02:01:45.640 as simple information as identity and citizenship. And that's another 2169 02:01:45.720 --> 02:01:46.520 area of weakness that. 2170 02:01:46.520 --> 02:01:47.600 We have that's not shared. 2171 02:01:48.399 --> 02:01:49.720 No, it's not because the way we. 2172 02:01:49.800 --> 02:01:52.399 Have it set up right now, because in part the 2173 02:01:52.479 --> 02:01:56.680 federal government, we accept all voter registration applications and then 2174 02:01:56.720 --> 02:01:59.720 we check after the fact. So nowhere is that the 2175 02:02:00.399 --> 02:02:03.119 whether you're talking banking, whether you're talking you would never 2176 02:02:03.199 --> 02:02:05.159 get a loan or transact if you weren't. 2177 02:02:05.000 --> 02:02:06.680 Qualified or eligible exactly. 2178 02:02:06.880 --> 02:02:09.000 And so with respect to the election systems, we have 2179 02:02:09.119 --> 02:02:12.399 eight point two million registered voters, and those eight point 2180 02:02:12.399 --> 02:02:17.079 two million registered voters cannot be qualified for eligibility just 2181 02:02:17.199 --> 02:02:19.680 by the Board of Elections. So we use the Secretary 2182 02:02:19.680 --> 02:02:21.560 of State and our Bureau of Motor Vehicles to do this, 2183 02:02:22.039 --> 02:02:25.079 But why couldn't the Secretary of State ensure that the 2184 02:02:25.119 --> 02:02:27.479 Board of Elections has access to that official data? And 2185 02:02:27.560 --> 02:02:29.279 that's where the battle is and that's where I'll take 2186 02:02:29.359 --> 02:02:31.399 Ohio to ensure proper information sharing. 2187 02:02:31.600 --> 02:02:37.359 Now, that doesn't sound like a challenging ask or so, 2188 02:02:37.560 --> 02:02:39.960 it sounds like something that should already be in place. 2189 02:02:41.079 --> 02:02:43.279 So what hurdles need to be overcome to get something 2190 02:02:43.439 --> 02:02:47.840 so seemingly important and to ensure that illegals are not 2191 02:02:48.000 --> 02:02:49.920 voting in our elections? What are not allowed to do? 2192 02:02:50.760 --> 02:02:50.920 Well? 2193 02:02:50.960 --> 02:02:53.159 It all starts with process and being the fact that 2194 02:02:53.199 --> 02:02:55.880 I've served in the military and organizational leadership level. You 2195 02:02:55.920 --> 02:02:57.840 look at every process and you break it down. And 2196 02:02:57.920 --> 02:02:59.840 that's what I've done in an exhaustive analysis of our 2197 02:03:00.000 --> 02:03:02.920 election laws or policies or procedures. And I think we 2198 02:03:03.000 --> 02:03:05.199 could cut down on the risk and start looking at this, 2199 02:03:05.359 --> 02:03:08.600 Brian from a risk management, threat assessment standpoint. And that's 2200 02:03:08.640 --> 02:03:11.800 the difference between I think what a political secretary of 2201 02:03:11.880 --> 02:03:14.439 state doesn't do because they see that position as a 2202 02:03:14.479 --> 02:03:17.359 stepping stone because as you know, how many how many 2203 02:03:17.439 --> 02:03:19.159 times does a secretary of state try to run for 2204 02:03:19.239 --> 02:03:22.000 Senate or governor? My focus is just to do this job. 2205 02:03:23.119 --> 02:03:25.159 I don't need to rotate and I don't need to 2206 02:03:25.199 --> 02:03:27.079 stay in this position. What I need to do is 2207 02:03:27.119 --> 02:03:28.640 I need to address and fix the issues. 2208 02:03:29.560 --> 02:03:31.960 Marcel Sturbage my guest in studio today again.

Marshall's surbageons 2258 02:06:00.239 --> 02:06:02.000 right for Secretary of State here in the state of 2259 02:06:02.000 --> 02:06:04.520 Behind has got good idea as an election integrities background 2260 02:06:04.600 --> 02:06:07.720 certainly lends itself to that role, most notably, as he's 2261 02:06:07.960 --> 02:06:12.520 demonstrated in his brief comments earlier, his tech abilities. He's 2262 02:06:12.880 --> 02:06:16.479 very savvy when it comes to technology and maybe iron 2263 02:06:16.560 --> 02:06:18.760 out things in terms of our concerns over the election 2264 02:06:19.039 --> 02:06:22.680 are the ballots that we cast? What other motivations and reasons? 2265 02:06:22.720 --> 02:06:25.439 What are the policies are you're running on for your 2266 02:06:25.479 --> 02:06:26.720 campaign as Secretary of State? 2267 02:06:26.760 --> 02:06:30.159 Marcel Yeah, Well, first and foremost, you know, I'm raising 2268 02:06:30.199 --> 02:06:32.399 a family here in Ohio to six and eight, and 2269 02:06:32.439 --> 02:06:34.000 I want them to have a system that can trust 2270 02:06:34.039 --> 02:06:36.319 and believe in. And I don't want any type of controversies. 2271 02:06:36.479 --> 02:06:40.760 You know, elections have become overly complicated, costly controversial. 2272 02:06:40.920 --> 02:06:42.039 That doesn't have to be that way. 2273 02:06:42.479 --> 02:06:44.159 Some of the things that I would propose up front 2274 02:06:44.199 --> 02:06:47.039 are really common sense based. First of all, voter idea 2275 02:06:47.079 --> 02:06:50.920 is supported by eighty four percent of Americans, and when 2276 02:06:50.960 --> 02:06:53.960 it comes to Ohio's elections, voter idea only applies if 2277 02:06:54.000 --> 02:06:56.439 you vote in person. So what that means is that 2278 02:06:56.600 --> 02:06:58.800 for the one million Ohioans who are who have been 2279 02:06:58.920 --> 02:07:01.560 casting their ballots by mail in they are not required 2280 02:07:01.640 --> 02:07:05.159 by law to cast a or to submit a copy 2281 02:07:05.199 --> 02:07:07.439 of a photo. I d we should quickly close that 2282 02:07:07.560 --> 02:07:09.960 loophole that we did when we passed our original voter 2283 02:07:10.079 --> 02:07:13.680 ID bill, and we argue against it because of convenience, Well, 2284 02:07:14.000 --> 02:07:16.960 there are so many opportunities for people to get a 2285 02:07:17.079 --> 02:07:19.880 copy of a photo ID to include when they obtain 2286 02:07:19.920 --> 02:07:21.039 their identity credentials. 2287 02:07:21.279 --> 02:07:24.159 Well, you're gonna, i hate to say this out loud, 2288 02:07:25.199 --> 02:07:27.760 it come September. You're gonna need a photo ID to 2289 02:07:27.880 --> 02:07:30.760 prove your age when surfing porn sites here in Ohio. 2290 02:07:31.079 --> 02:07:32.000 That's a great point. 2291 02:07:32.119 --> 02:07:35.000 Yes, they passed that legislation, Bride, and so this is 2292 02:07:35.439 --> 02:07:37.279 a no brainer and we need we need to go 2293 02:07:37.479 --> 02:07:40.439 right to that. I think the other area, as I 2294 02:07:40.520 --> 02:07:43.880 talked about, preprinted hand marketable paper ballots should be the 2295 02:07:44.000 --> 02:07:46.760 norm in the primary method by which we cast ballots. 2296 02:07:47.079 --> 02:07:51.159 It will save our counties tons and tons of money 2297 02:07:51.840 --> 02:07:55.479 when it comes to eligibility verification checking people. Let's give 2298 02:07:55.520 --> 02:07:58.039 our Board of Elections both the means and the mandate 2299 02:07:58.119 --> 02:08:01.720 to check for citizenship, ident and residency. Give them the 2300 02:08:01.840 --> 02:08:05.000 same access that the Secretary of State has. So those 2301 02:08:05.039 --> 02:08:08.359 are three really upfront, common sense approaches. I would further 2302 02:08:08.479 --> 02:08:11.960 advocate for a couple areas to reduce the likelihood of 2303 02:08:12.119 --> 02:08:14.199 third party groups. I don't know if you recall this, Brian, 2304 02:08:14.199 --> 02:08:15.560 when I was on your show last year and in 2305 02:08:15.640 --> 02:08:19.680 Hamilton County, we had these third party voter engagement organizations 2306 02:08:20.119 --> 02:08:22.880 and while our administration touts the fact that we've stopped 2307 02:08:22.960 --> 02:08:25.840 dark money from interfering in our elections. That doesn't mean 2308 02:08:25.880 --> 02:08:30.079 that we've stopped nonprofits or for profits from falsely registering people. 2309 02:08:30.159 --> 02:08:34.039 And here in Hamilton they falsely registered canvassers did hundreds 2310 02:08:34.039 --> 02:08:36.199 of people last year. Well, they didn't close that issue 2311 02:08:36.279 --> 02:08:38.520 or that loophole. It still exists. So we have to 2312 02:08:38.680 --> 02:08:42.920 closely look at what role, if any voter engagement organizations 2313 02:08:42.960 --> 02:08:45.640 that are paying canvassers should play. Really, there's no reason 2314 02:08:45.720 --> 02:08:49.239 we have online registration at this point. We have a 2315 02:08:49.319 --> 02:08:52.439 number of agencies to register us. Why are we adding risk? 2316 02:08:52.520 --> 02:08:54.560 And then we need to look at instead of having 2317 02:08:54.680 --> 02:08:58.800 twenty eight in person voting days, which is a logistical burden, 2318 02:08:58.880 --> 02:09:01.039 it's a cost burden. I would like to see us 2319 02:09:01.079 --> 02:09:04.640 and I would commit to working toward what the administration 2320 02:09:04.760 --> 02:09:07.159 and White House has said, which is let's get toward 2321 02:09:07.239 --> 02:09:10.199 a same day in person voting. With that said, for 2322 02:09:10.319 --> 02:09:13.119 people who do work and it's untenable for them to 2323 02:09:13.199 --> 02:09:16.800 get to the polling location, like they're confined disabled, let's 2324 02:09:16.800 --> 02:09:19.760 say they're poll workers that day, We'll go to an 2325 02:09:19.800 --> 02:09:23.159 exception based mail in ballot system. So having a valid excuse, 2326 02:09:23.479 --> 02:09:27.800 still allowing twenty eight days of early valid excuse mail 2327 02:09:27.880 --> 02:09:30.760 in voting. I think if we paired those two close 2328 02:09:30.840 --> 02:09:34.359 the voter id loophole, and we address the ability of 2329 02:09:34.399 --> 02:09:37.119 a Board of Elections to actually verifying valid a people 2330 02:09:37.239 --> 02:09:39.760 up front, we would be hitting on all cords and 2331 02:09:39.840 --> 02:09:42.560 we would really reduce the risk that bad actors would 2332 02:09:42.560 --> 02:09:45.199 take advantage of this thirty day period. And I think 2333 02:09:45.319 --> 02:09:47.359 all of those are within the realm of four years 2334 02:09:47.399 --> 02:09:49.199 of a Secretary of State who has the will to 2335 02:09:49.279 --> 02:09:50.640 do this, and I am the person. 2336 02:09:50.680 --> 02:09:53.359 Today and a governor who shares your vision. 2337 02:09:53.880 --> 02:09:58.800 Exactly, the governor who's pursuing actually enhancing civic education wanting 2338 02:09:58.880 --> 02:10:02.479 to introduce for example, because as Governor to be, Ramaswami 2339 02:10:02.600 --> 02:10:07.199 wanting to introduce a citizens Service exam for twelfth graders, well, 2340 02:10:07.319 --> 02:10:12.680 I would pair his proposal up by introducing a curriculum 2341 02:10:12.880 --> 02:10:16.640 post election where students can actually participate in a hand 2342 02:10:16.720 --> 02:10:21.359 counting exercise using the vote casts prior in that election, 2343 02:10:21.520 --> 02:10:24.279 so that they can have some familiarity with what that is. 2344 02:10:24.319 --> 02:10:27.239 I think the reason we're having so few people participating 2345 02:10:27.319 --> 02:10:30.119 in part in these processes is they don't have familiarity 2346 02:10:30.399 --> 02:10:32.359 or buy in. And I think if we start to 2347 02:10:32.399 --> 02:10:36.000 get people involved in more public involvement at the polling 2348 02:10:36.079 --> 02:10:40.000 location besides the computerized the heavy dependence on computerized casting, 2349 02:10:40.520 --> 02:10:42.239 I think we would start to open the minds of 2350 02:10:42.279 --> 02:10:45.119 a lot of young people paired with his policies, and 2351 02:10:45.199 --> 02:10:47.800 we could do some really good things and galvanizing this 2352 02:10:47.920 --> 02:10:51.439 young generation to care again about voting and about democracy 2353 02:10:51.760 --> 02:10:53.720 and about what it means to be a citizen. So 2354 02:10:53.880 --> 02:10:56.720 I think that Governor Ramaswami and a Secretary of State 2355 02:10:56.800 --> 02:10:59.840 Marcel Sturbage would work hand in glove to be able 2356 02:10:59.880 --> 02:11:01.720 to enact these changes. And that's where I think we 2357 02:11:01.840 --> 02:11:04.079 get back to this state of excellence mindset. 2358 02:11:04.239 --> 02:11:06.399 Well, I know, granting authority to do business in Ohio 2359 02:11:06.479 --> 02:11:08.680 is one of the jobs of Secretary of State. In Ramaswami, 2360 02:11:08.720 --> 02:11:10.880 I mean, he talks a great game in terms of 2361 02:11:11.000 --> 02:11:14.560 getting making Ohio the number one destination for new businesses. 2362 02:11:15.000 --> 02:11:17.840 I love his energy policy making Ohio the leading producer 2363 02:11:17.880 --> 02:11:21.720 of energy. Small nuke reactors, for example, provide an abundance electricity. 2364 02:11:22.079 --> 02:11:24.119 We could be a real powerhouse. What can the Secretary 2365 02:11:24.119 --> 02:11:27.359 of State's office do if you were there to help 2366 02:11:27.479 --> 02:11:30.000 Ramaswami and the rest of Ohio fulfill that goal. 2367 02:11:30.239 --> 02:11:32.880 Well, we would certainly work together. In the Secretary of 2368 02:11:32.960 --> 02:11:35.600 State's Business Services Division is where the rubber meets the 2369 02:11:35.680 --> 02:11:39.920 road for business licensing and LLC and corporation, So making 2370 02:11:39.960 --> 02:11:43.159 sure that that process is streamlined, that it's transparent. Let's 2371 02:11:43.159 --> 02:11:45.279 say you're a first time business owner. That could be 2372 02:11:45.399 --> 02:11:47.439 arduous to figure out how to go through the filing. 2373 02:11:47.800 --> 02:11:50.960 So to ensure that there's information system technology we could 2374 02:11:51.159 --> 02:11:53.800 adopt that can allow you to see where your application 2375 02:11:54.039 --> 02:11:55.840 is in the process, that'd be nice. 2376 02:11:55.960 --> 02:11:57.520 Yeah, And so if you're. 2377 02:11:57.600 --> 02:12:01.000 A recurring a business filer or you know an attorney 2378 02:12:01.079 --> 02:12:03.720 that's working for another you tend to understand how to 2379 02:12:03.800 --> 02:12:05.600 navigate it. But what if you're a mom and pop 2380 02:12:05.920 --> 02:12:07.600 right you know now, I will say there are some 2381 02:12:07.760 --> 02:12:10.319 guides on those Secretary of State's website that help people 2382 02:12:10.359 --> 02:12:13.560 with this. But with that said, you know, following that 2383 02:12:13.720 --> 02:12:17.239 process and being able to see where your application is 2384 02:12:17.760 --> 02:12:19.760 is an area of improvement that I would advocate and 2385 02:12:20.119 --> 02:12:24.279 working with a Governor Ramaswami, I would be the facilitating 2386 02:12:24.359 --> 02:12:26.119 point for a lot of those. I think we had 2387 02:12:26.159 --> 02:12:29.600 one hundred thousand business filings so far this year and 2388 02:12:30.000 --> 02:12:31.359 we're on tap to double that. 2389 02:12:31.560 --> 02:12:33.399 So it's a critical part. 2390 02:12:33.800 --> 02:12:36.720 It's not something that I speak as much about because 2391 02:12:36.720 --> 02:12:38.760 the election systems need a lot of care and tender, 2392 02:12:39.079 --> 02:12:41.520 but when it comes to business services, administration will look 2393 02:12:41.560 --> 02:12:42.600 for improvements there as well. 2394 02:12:43.079 --> 02:12:47.680 Wonderful Marcell sturbagefoohio dot coms where you find them, encourage 2395 02:12:47.680 --> 02:12:49.279 you to donate. You're off to a good start in 2396 02:12:49.359 --> 02:12:52.319 terms of campaign finance, and congratulations on that. And my 2397 02:12:52.439 --> 02:12:55.000 next guest someone I know, you know Jack Windsor. You've 2398 02:12:55.000 --> 02:12:57.239 been on Jack Windsor's Windsor Report quite a few times. 2399 02:12:57.560 --> 02:13:00.479 I have, and he and I helped break open a 2400 02:13:00.520 --> 02:13:02.600 lot of these stories on where we are in terms 2401 02:13:02.640 --> 02:13:06.880 of citizenship verification. Last year was a big, big question 2402 02:13:06.960 --> 02:13:09.159 as to whether we're on top of that issue. And 2403 02:13:09.600 --> 02:13:11.279 he's endorsed this campaign as well. 2404 02:13:11.439 --> 02:13:11.880 Oh good. 2405 02:13:12.079 --> 02:13:12.279 Yeah. 2406 02:13:12.760 --> 02:13:14.920 A lot of people, like a lot of grassroots and 2407 02:13:15.279 --> 02:13:17.680 other folks that really just want to see change and 2408 02:13:18.439 --> 02:13:21.720 some new vitality in our executive offices are taking a 2409 02:13:21.760 --> 02:13:23.600 strong look and that's why we did raise over two 2410 02:13:23.680 --> 02:13:27.479 hundred thousand dollars in six weeks and that's a great 2411 02:13:27.560 --> 02:13:30.920 start point. I'm blessed humbled by the support. And I'm 2412 02:13:30.920 --> 02:13:32.800 going to work every single day to win this election. 2413 02:13:33.039 --> 02:13:35.880 It's in May of twenty twenty six, so got a 2414 02:13:35.920 --> 02:13:37.920 little time, a little bit of time, but that doesn't 2415 02:13:37.960 --> 02:13:40.079 you know, when you're not in the system, you have 2416 02:13:40.199 --> 02:13:43.680 to do double the work. And again, I'm motivating and 2417 02:13:43.800 --> 02:13:47.479 driven to make Ohio better.

Thank you for appreciate 2421 02:13:52.319 --> 02:13:53.119 your enthusiasm. 2422 02:13:53.159 --> 02:13:53.520 Marcel. 2423 02:13:53.600 --> 02:13:55.960 You and I will talk again between now an election. 2424 02:13:56.039 --> 02:13:57.840 Of course, You're always welcome here in the morning show. 2425 02:13:58.199 --> 02:14:01.000 Good luck my friend again.

Editor in chief of the Hump presid Network, 2463 02:15:47.359 --> 02:15:51.960 Jack Windsor also apparently friend of my last guest, Marcel Sturbage. Jack, Good, 2464 02:15:52.039 --> 02:15:54.560 have you back on the morning show. Hey, it's great 2465 02:15:54.600 --> 02:15:56.600 to be here, Brian, thanks for choosing me today. I 2466 02:15:56.800 --> 02:16:00.000 understand you and have endorsed Marcel Stirbage for Secretary Stay. 2467 02:16:01.319 --> 02:16:01.600 I have. 2468 02:16:02.000 --> 02:16:06.279 Marcel has been a great source for many of the 2469 02:16:06.319 --> 02:16:09.920 stories we've written on Ohio election reform, and a guest 2470 02:16:10.000 --> 02:16:14.800 on my radio show multiple times and just quick and Dirty. 2471 02:16:15.079 --> 02:16:16.680 The reason I've done it is that I think he 2472 02:16:16.880 --> 02:16:19.079 is the guy who actually understands what the gaps are 2473 02:16:19.119 --> 02:16:21.560 in Ohio's election integrity and has a plan to get 2474 02:16:21.600 --> 02:16:24.000 it done. And he's not running around Ohio going, hey, 2475 02:16:24.039 --> 02:16:27.680 we've got the gold standard in election election law, no 2476 02:16:28.079 --> 02:16:28.920 election outcomes. 2477 02:16:29.279 --> 02:16:31.760 He is definitely not singing that tune, but he is. 2478 02:16:31.960 --> 02:16:36.040 He's very coherent and very clear on what he wants 2479 02:16:36.120 --> 02:16:38.120 to do to ensure the integrity the election. He just 2480 02:16:38.200 --> 02:16:39.719 went through it, and he was able to rattle off 2481 02:16:39.799 --> 02:16:41.520 quite a few things, some of which you just kind 2482 02:16:41.559 --> 02:16:43.239 of scratch your head, Jack and wonder, well, why the 2483 02:16:43.280 --> 02:16:45.719 hell isn't that in place already? How difficult can it 2484 02:16:45.799 --> 02:16:48.159 be to ensure that someone is actually a citizen of 2485 02:16:48.200 --> 02:16:50.440 the United States of America before they cast a vote. 2486 02:16:51.319 --> 02:16:54.360 Yeah, it's wild, isn't it. And what he's talking about 2487 02:16:54.399 --> 02:16:56.559 right now, he's been talking about for a while. And 2488 02:16:56.879 --> 02:17:00.600 when President Trump obviously was inaugurated, one of the first 2489 02:17:00.680 --> 02:17:04.200 things he talked about was making sure that we reform 2490 02:17:04.360 --> 02:17:08.159 election laws and increase election integrity and spoke to the 2491 02:17:08.280 --> 02:17:10.319 very thing that Marcell's talking about. We should not be 2492 02:17:10.360 --> 02:17:13.760 putting people who are not citizens on the voting roles 2493 02:17:13.840 --> 02:17:18.079 because it just it's an exacerbated risk, and of course 2494 02:17:18.120 --> 02:17:19.600 it takes time and money to take them off the 2495 02:17:19.719 --> 02:17:21.959 voter roles, and it seems like a no brainer. 2496 02:17:22.280 --> 02:17:26.200 It really is. And again, I just it's one of 2497 02:17:26.239 --> 02:17:28.520 the frustrating things that I'm sure it's equally frustrating for you, Jack, 2498 02:17:28.680 --> 02:17:33.120 knowing how you are about politics, why is why are politics? 2499 02:17:33.159 --> 02:17:37.399 And how it's so frustrating. Republicans run the show. They've 2500 02:17:37.440 --> 02:17:40.680 got both houses, they got the governor's office, they have 2501 02:17:40.799 --> 02:17:42.920 Secretary of State's office, they have the auditor's office, they 2502 02:17:42.959 --> 02:17:45.440 have everything. You think it will be this well oiled, efficient, 2503 02:17:45.639 --> 02:17:49.840 you know, fiscal responsibility, limited government, free market kind of state. 2504 02:17:49.959 --> 02:17:51.840 And yet it's like hurting cats up there. 2505 02:17:53.000 --> 02:17:56.479 It really is, isn't it. I Mean, first of all, 2506 02:17:56.520 --> 02:17:58.440 you have the I call the rhino problem. There are 2507 02:17:58.559 --> 02:18:01.559 Republicans in name only, and then you know the other issue. 2508 02:18:01.600 --> 02:18:03.600 There are people who are Republicans and they're in these 2509 02:18:03.680 --> 02:18:06.799 districts that are purple where sometimes it's hard for a 2510 02:18:06.840 --> 02:18:10.520 Republican to pull out a victory, and so that shows 2511 02:18:10.600 --> 02:18:13.479 up and sometimes how they vote or don't vote, or 2512 02:18:14.280 --> 02:18:16.000 what they do while they're at the state House because 2513 02:18:16.079 --> 02:18:18.200 they recognize that there are people who are on the 2514 02:18:18.280 --> 02:18:20.079 left side of the aisle who might not be so 2515 02:18:20.319 --> 02:18:24.000 happy if they go, you know, too far right, and 2516 02:18:24.319 --> 02:18:27.440 it is it's maddening. You would think with the trifecta, 2517 02:18:28.239 --> 02:18:30.639 is what Republicans have here that we get hew, G've 2518 02:18:30.680 --> 02:18:31.319 a lot more done. 2519 02:18:31.559 --> 02:18:34.719 You would absolutely. Anyway, Well, a change of governor would 2520 02:18:34.719 --> 02:18:37.200 would be very helpful. And I'm keeping my fingers crossed 2521 02:18:37.239 --> 02:18:41.280 for VV. Ramaswami because he's got great ideas and he 2522 02:18:41.520 --> 02:18:44.280 is as an enthused guy as you can ever find. Jack, 2523 02:18:45.639 --> 02:18:47.000 He is super fantastic. 2524 02:18:47.120 --> 02:18:50.760 And midterms are always tough for the party in charge, 2525 02:18:51.239 --> 02:18:55.000 and so in Ohio, Donald Trump is won here multiple times, 2526 02:18:55.040 --> 02:18:59.479 obviously by wider margins each time, and without him being 2527 02:18:59.520 --> 02:19:01.600 at the top of the ticket. You go, Okay, do 2528 02:19:01.680 --> 02:19:03.000 you have somebody to put at the top of the 2529 02:19:03.040 --> 02:19:05.600 ticket that can help Republicans down ballot? And the Veke 2530 02:19:05.680 --> 02:19:09.360 brings an energy and attention that I think is good 2531 02:19:09.440 --> 02:19:11.280 for Republicans here in the Buckeye Stay. 2532 02:19:11.280 --> 02:19:13.319 Jack wins Or, editor in chief of High Press Network. 2533 02:19:13.520 --> 02:19:15.719 When we come back, we'll get on focus here and 2534 02:19:15.799 --> 02:19:19.799 we'll talk about the efforts to override Dwine's vetos, one 2535 02:19:19.879 --> 02:19:22.159 of which was successful, but what of the other two? 2536 02:19:22.280 --> 02:19:25.479 More with Jack Wins are on those after these brief words, 2537 02:19:25.520 --> 02:19:26.040 don't go away. 2538 02:19:26.319 --> 02:19:27.520 Fifty five KRC. 2539 02:19:28.079 --> 02:19:32.159 You're listening to Lee filter Hey quick Channel nine forecast 2540 02:19:32.239 --> 02:19:34.159 got an air quality learn effect all day for the 2541 02:19:34.319 --> 02:19:36.959 entire Tri state Heat Advisory starts at eleven today and 2542 02:19:37.040 --> 02:19:40.360 last until eight pm tomorrow.

The budget 2561 02:20:35.280 --> 02:20:39.319 can in Ohio here contain three I call them babystep 2562 02:20:39.639 --> 02:20:43.079 but some efforts to help us deal with the outrageous 2563 02:20:43.079 --> 02:20:47.479 property tax bills. We're facing three separate provisions to wind 2564 02:20:48.120 --> 02:20:51.159 the line. IM vetoed all three for reasons that still 2565 02:20:51.280 --> 02:20:53.680 escaped me and Jack, maybe you can explain that if 2566 02:20:53.680 --> 02:20:55.959 you figured it out. But he said, we need to 2567 02:20:56.040 --> 02:20:59.040 study them more. We need a working group to look 2568 02:20:59.120 --> 02:21:02.520 into this. Well, by all accounts, they've been studying and 2569 02:21:02.680 --> 02:21:05.799 looking at this with a different working group leading up 2570 02:21:05.879 --> 02:21:09.360 to the budget, which incorporated three ideas from the prior 2571 02:21:09.440 --> 02:21:11.719 working group who came up with like twenty three different 2572 02:21:11.799 --> 02:21:14.760 suggestions on how we could deal with property tax. So there, 2573 02:21:14.920 --> 02:21:16.680 the work has been done. There, it is in the bill. 2574 02:21:16.719 --> 02:21:19.840 And yet Dwine chooses to veto those but not veto 2575 02:21:19.920 --> 02:21:22.520 the six hundred million dollars going to the Cleveland Browns. 2576 02:21:23.000 --> 02:21:25.120 So you may or may or not want to address 2577 02:21:25.159 --> 02:21:27.479 that one, Jack, But that just really frankly pisses me off. 2578 02:21:27.600 --> 02:21:32.760 But they did successfully override one of the three vetos. 2579 02:21:32.799 --> 02:21:33.639 So where are we on this? 2580 02:21:33.799 --> 02:21:34.000 Jack? 2581 02:21:35.000 --> 02:21:39.159 Yeah, so there were three or actually there were four 2582 02:21:39.280 --> 02:21:41.360 going back that he that he vetoed. It was a 2583 02:21:41.760 --> 02:21:45.600 school cash balance carryover forty percent, right, There was a 2584 02:21:45.840 --> 02:21:48.719 recalculating the twenty mil floor, which gets you know, so 2585 02:21:48.879 --> 02:21:51.159 far in the weeds, my mind starts to hurt yep. 2586 02:21:51.959 --> 02:21:56.399 And then there was empowering the county Budget commission Authority 2587 02:21:56.959 --> 02:22:01.639 allowing them, essentially this group missioners to say no, now 2588 02:22:01.879 --> 02:22:05.600 that's excessive, we can't do that, so more local control. 2589 02:22:06.079 --> 02:22:11.079 And then the one that actually was overridden on Monday. 2590 02:22:11.600 --> 02:22:15.479 It takes away I call them tools for schools and 2591 02:22:15.600 --> 02:22:19.719 other taxing authorities in the form of the types of 2592 02:22:19.959 --> 02:22:23.840 levees that they use, and one of the examples that 2593 02:22:24.000 --> 02:22:27.680 I give is what they would call emergency levees or 2594 02:22:27.799 --> 02:22:33.120 restricted emergency levees. Those tools are taken away, and frankly, 2595 02:22:33.319 --> 02:22:37.399 part of it is that those words can be misleading, 2596 02:22:37.479 --> 02:22:42.479 They can be misnober yes, misnomers when these things are 2597 02:22:42.520 --> 02:22:46.360 being cussed and discussed during the budget process. One school 2598 02:22:46.399 --> 02:22:49.520 district we found was in an emergency levee situation for 2599 02:22:49.600 --> 02:22:52.479 twenty years and one lawmaker said, okay, now, explain to 2600 02:22:52.559 --> 02:22:55.600 me an emergency that last twenty years. And so these 2601 02:22:55.639 --> 02:22:59.680 are those structural changes that really give their design to 2602 02:22:59.760 --> 02:23:02.840 give voters more transparency when they go to the ballot box. 2603 02:23:03.440 --> 02:23:07.399 All right, but they didn't vote on a couple of 2604 02:23:07.479 --> 02:23:10.440 the overrides. I learned this morning from Donovan and Neil 2605 02:23:10.440 --> 02:23:13.760 from Americans for Prosperity. They were concerned about voting on 2606 02:23:13.840 --> 02:23:15.600 those because they didn't know if they had enough votes 2607 02:23:15.639 --> 02:23:18.159 to override. And they only get one bite at the 2608 02:23:18.280 --> 02:23:20.600 apple in terms of voting to override the vetos, so 2609 02:23:20.639 --> 02:23:23.440 they put it on hold. So maybe in September or 2610 02:23:23.479 --> 02:23:25.280 whenever when they come back, they're going to vote on those. 2611 02:23:25.360 --> 02:23:27.920 But I guess if they weren't sure they had enough 2612 02:23:28.000 --> 02:23:30.280 votes to override the veto, there's no certainty that those 2613 02:23:30.319 --> 02:23:33.920 are going to be overriddenhen the next vote. That's a 2614 02:23:33.959 --> 02:23:36.200 great observation, and I'm with you on that. 2615 02:23:36.440 --> 02:23:38.719 I talked to State Representative Beth Lear and I said, 2616 02:23:38.719 --> 02:23:40.360 do you think you can take another crack at these 2617 02:23:41.159 --> 02:23:44.040 sometime later in the fall when everyone officially returns from 2618 02:23:44.200 --> 02:23:48.280 summer recess. And the answer was yes. But I want 2619 02:23:48.280 --> 02:23:50.360 to go back to what you said earlier, Brian. Some 2620 02:23:50.520 --> 02:23:54.120 of the things that have caused outrage here. Number one, 2621 02:23:54.319 --> 02:23:56.360 it appears that the can has been kicked down the 2622 02:23:56.479 --> 02:23:58.639 road so far that there's not going to be any 2623 02:23:58.719 --> 02:24:01.559 immediate property really. Now, there are some people who would 2624 02:24:01.600 --> 02:24:05.559 say these reforms were not going to provide immediate property 2625 02:24:05.639 --> 02:24:10.360 relief anyway. But you said DeWine wanted to take a 2626 02:24:10.440 --> 02:24:13.559 better look at this. Well, you also said there was 2627 02:24:13.600 --> 02:24:17.520 a commission, bipartisan commission that created over twenty property tax 2628 02:24:17.600 --> 02:24:20.319 reform ideas that were baked into this budget, and DeWine 2629 02:24:20.520 --> 02:24:22.799 of course took his veto pen and cut those out. 2630 02:24:24.319 --> 02:24:29.000 But the thing with DeWine's working group is, now we 2631 02:24:29.079 --> 02:24:31.760 found out yesterday there's more reason for people to be 2632 02:24:31.879 --> 02:24:34.360 upset when he originally put that together. 2633 02:24:34.479 --> 02:24:37.200 The two people he put in charge are lobbyists. 2634 02:24:37.920 --> 02:24:40.719 One is from the Cincinnati area Bill Sites, he's a 2635 02:24:40.840 --> 02:24:44.319 former state representative, and the other is former Congressman Pat 2636 02:24:44.360 --> 02:24:47.600 T Berry, who's now CEO of the Ohio Business Roundtable. 2637 02:24:47.680 --> 02:24:50.600 But Sites, for those who don't know, after leaving the 2638 02:24:50.680 --> 02:24:53.559 state House, he's now a lobbyist. And get this, Brian, 2639 02:24:53.639 --> 02:24:55.879 this is the part that has people really peeved. He 2640 02:24:56.000 --> 02:25:01.159 represents clients like Cincinnati Public Schools, Sycamore Township, Cincinnati, Hamilton 2641 02:25:01.200 --> 02:25:03.280 County Public Library and you go, okay, well, what does 2642 02:25:03.360 --> 02:25:05.799 that matter because those are entities that are reliant on 2643 02:25:06.040 --> 02:25:09.479 property tax. Yeah, so you go, okay, the guys that 2644 02:25:09.559 --> 02:25:13.120 he put in charge of this commission are our lobbyists 2645 02:25:13.520 --> 02:25:15.879 that that are probably going to be there pushing for 2646 02:25:16.399 --> 02:25:19.959 the reforms that most Ohioans don't want. Right, And then 2647 02:25:20.040 --> 02:25:23.200 we found out yesterday he released a list of nine 2648 02:25:23.239 --> 02:25:26.280 other folks to be on that commission, And as I 2649 02:25:26.360 --> 02:25:29.200 look at them, there's like, you know, a treasurer, auditor, auditor, 2650 02:25:29.600 --> 02:25:33.639 superintendent of public of one public school system, another superintendent, 2651 02:25:34.159 --> 02:25:39.120 Hamilton County commissioner, Pickaway County commissioner, and then a Pike 2652 02:25:39.159 --> 02:25:42.360 County commissioner, And you go, Okay, that's good. These local 2653 02:25:42.479 --> 02:25:46.159 taxing authorities are represented. But I don't see any state reps. 2654 02:25:46.239 --> 02:25:49.200 I don't see any policy experts. I don't see any 2655 02:25:49.520 --> 02:25:52.200 property tax experts. I don't see any small business you 2656 02:25:52.239 --> 02:25:53.159 know representation. 2657 02:25:53.319 --> 02:25:53.559 I don't. 2658 02:25:53.840 --> 02:25:57.120 And so it's it's so focused on this one sector. 2659 02:25:57.200 --> 02:25:58.959 I think a lot of people are now going, all right, 2660 02:25:59.040 --> 02:26:01.040 what's what's the wine going to try to bake up? 2661 02:26:01.360 --> 02:26:03.680 And to see you have enough control over some Republicans 2662 02:26:03.719 --> 02:26:06.959 in the General Assembly that we're going to get more 2663 02:26:07.040 --> 02:26:09.319 watered down property tax reforms. 2664 02:26:09.479 --> 02:26:11.840 I think anybody's reading tea leaves will probably go in 2665 02:26:11.920 --> 02:26:14.280 that direction. Like me, Jack, I think that's exactly what 2666 02:26:14.319 --> 02:26:17.200 we're going to get, knowing Dwine's record, most notably and 2667 02:26:17.319 --> 02:26:21.360 considering who's on the Han Select committee there. But this 2668 02:26:21.559 --> 02:26:24.399 raises sort of an interesting specter. It will kick the 2669 02:26:24.479 --> 02:26:26.680 can down the road. Whatever the committee comes up with 2670 02:26:26.879 --> 02:26:28.600 is going to have to be turned into some form 2671 02:26:28.639 --> 02:26:32.040 of legislation that's going to go through the legislative process 2672 02:26:32.079 --> 02:26:34.319 since we're done with the budget, and if they don't 2673 02:26:34.360 --> 02:26:38.680 override the vetos, that is to say, doesn't this make 2674 02:26:38.879 --> 02:26:41.680 more likely or but create the potential of the constitutional 2675 02:26:41.680 --> 02:26:45.559 amendment petition that's circulating more likely to pass because they 2676 02:26:45.600 --> 02:26:47.559 are kicking the can down the road and we are 2677 02:26:47.680 --> 02:26:50.000 not going to be getting any immediate property tax relief 2678 02:26:50.479 --> 02:26:52.559 that we can see. I mean, even baby steps might 2679 02:26:52.639 --> 02:26:54.360 go along the way, and you could advocate, no, no, 2680 02:26:54.479 --> 02:26:55.920 give it time to work, give it time to work. 2681 02:26:55.959 --> 02:26:59.120 We'll get the relief. It just is going to be instantaneous. That, 2682 02:26:59.319 --> 02:27:04.040 my friend, will be instantaneous. Yes, it will be instantaneous. 2683 02:27:04.079 --> 02:27:07.079 And as I look at this, my visceral response, my 2684 02:27:07.159 --> 02:27:10.000 hot take on Monday, when the General Assembly just got 2685 02:27:10.079 --> 02:27:14.000 one of those things overridden, I said, this is actually 2686 02:27:14.120 --> 02:27:16.680 going to be positive for the people who want to 2687 02:27:16.760 --> 02:27:20.040 abolish property tax because people are already peeped. And I 2688 02:27:20.399 --> 02:27:23.399 got emails yesterday from folks who said, well, isn't it 2689 02:27:23.440 --> 02:27:26.479 interesting that the General Assembly did or the House did 2690 02:27:26.520 --> 02:27:28.719 what they did on Monday? I no joke, got a 2691 02:27:28.840 --> 02:27:30.959 tax bill or a notice on Tuesday that said, you know, 2692 02:27:31.079 --> 02:27:35.280 my taxes are going up X amount, which is you know, astronomical, 2693 02:27:35.760 --> 02:27:38.879 And so you're you're going to have this really interesting situation, Brian, 2694 02:27:38.920 --> 02:27:41.319 where people are going to be even more pissed off than. 2695 02:27:41.200 --> 02:27:42.120 They are now. Yeah. 2696 02:27:42.239 --> 02:27:48.840 But but the lobbying, I don't know, power influence resources 2697 02:27:49.239 --> 02:27:52.440 of the people opposed to massive text reform. 2698 02:27:52.520 --> 02:27:52.639 Here. 2699 02:27:52.719 --> 02:27:54.520 I think you're seeing it, and I think the wine 2700 02:27:54.600 --> 02:27:55.120 leads them. 2701 02:27:55.399 --> 02:27:59.079 So it's going to be this clash of old way 2702 02:27:59.120 --> 02:28:01.200 of doing it in politics, and probably a bunch of 2703 02:28:01.239 --> 02:28:03.040 money behind a campaign to make sure that that thing 2704 02:28:03.120 --> 02:28:05.479 doesn't pass, and then a bunch of grassroots people in 2705 02:28:05.520 --> 02:28:07.639 Ohio who go, no, come hell or high water, we're 2706 02:28:07.639 --> 02:28:09.159 putting this on the ballot and I don't want to 2707 02:28:09.159 --> 02:28:10.280 pay property taxes any. 2708 02:28:10.280 --> 02:28:12.159 Yeah, and that is definitely going to be the challenge because, 2709 02:28:12.399 --> 02:28:14.440 as you point out, I think statement the obvious that 2710 02:28:14.520 --> 02:28:17.639 that is going to be a well financed opposition to 2711 02:28:17.760 --> 02:28:21.559 that ballot initiative, and you know, just random folks like 2712 02:28:21.680 --> 02:28:24.319 me saying it might be a good idea are not 2713 02:28:24.399 --> 02:28:26.959 going to be backed by the money. There's not a 2714 02:28:27.079 --> 02:28:29.920 lobbying group or some organization that's going to hurt all 2715 02:28:29.920 --> 02:28:32.559 the individual people into one sound, solid voice. 2716 02:28:34.040 --> 02:28:37.000 That's exactly right. And so right now they're in that 2717 02:28:37.360 --> 02:28:39.879 signature gathering phase. In fact, I think the idea was 2718 02:28:39.959 --> 02:28:43.680 to have those signatures gathered for later this year, and 2719 02:28:43.920 --> 02:28:47.440 it looks like earliest would be May of twenty twenty six. 2720 02:28:47.719 --> 02:28:50.600 If they can't get them, it's then November twenty six, 2721 02:28:50.920 --> 02:28:52.959 and then you're looking all the way into twenty seven, right, 2722 02:28:53.159 --> 02:28:53.559 And so. 2723 02:28:53.840 --> 02:28:55.399 People want property tax relief. 2724 02:28:55.479 --> 02:28:57.799 Now we'll find out Dewyne's commission is set to meet 2725 02:28:57.879 --> 02:29:00.120 on Thursday, so we'll see what they come up with 2726 02:29:00.239 --> 02:29:01.120 after that first meeting. 2727 02:29:01.239 --> 02:29:03.879 Well, I observed earlier than I had before, Jack, I 2728 02:29:04.040 --> 02:29:05.639 just the thing that really irks me the most about 2729 02:29:05.639 --> 02:29:09.879 property taxes. It's all predicated on some randomly chosen figure 2730 02:29:09.920 --> 02:29:13.760 your house is worth. It's unrealized gain. I've been in 2731 02:29:13.799 --> 02:29:15.959 my house for almost thirty years. I know what I 2732 02:29:16.040 --> 02:29:18.079 paid when I built it, and I know what they 2733 02:29:18.159 --> 02:29:20.239 tell me it's worth now, and it's gone up a 2734 02:29:20.319 --> 02:29:23.000 lot in value. It's only worth whatever somebody is willing 2735 02:29:23.079 --> 02:29:25.159 to buy it, does sell it, or to pay for 2736 02:29:25.239 --> 02:29:27.280 it at the time of sale. That's the only time 2737 02:29:27.360 --> 02:29:29.600 you ever know the value of your home. And yet 2738 02:29:29.680 --> 02:29:34.079 here we are saddled with this insane recalculation because well, 2739 02:29:34.440 --> 02:29:37.159 COVID changed the landscape of real estate market in this 2740 02:29:37.239 --> 02:29:39.920 country overnight. Yes it did. 2741 02:29:40.479 --> 02:29:42.479 And you know, I feel for everybody who has that 2742 02:29:42.600 --> 02:29:45.639 unrealized game, because just because your home value goes up 2743 02:29:45.680 --> 02:29:48.280 forty thousand or fifty thousand dollars, it doesn't mean that 2744 02:29:48.360 --> 02:29:51.719 you have some you know corresponding I know, likewise cash 2745 02:29:51.760 --> 02:29:53.200 stash that you can pay your taxes. 2746 02:29:53.680 --> 02:29:57.399 I also feel for the older folks on fixed incomes. 2747 02:29:58.000 --> 02:30:00.920 My dad, you know, and someone listen probably have dads 2748 02:30:00.959 --> 02:30:04.559 and grandparents who are struggling. And it comes down to 2749 02:30:04.600 --> 02:30:07.440 the age old question if I've paid my home off 2750 02:30:07.600 --> 02:30:09.319 and now I'm on a fixed income or don't make 2751 02:30:09.319 --> 02:30:10.799 as much as I used to and I can't afford 2752 02:30:10.840 --> 02:30:13.680 my property bill and you can take my home. That 2753 02:30:13.799 --> 02:30:15.680 I ever really own my home or did the government 2754 02:30:15.719 --> 02:30:17.719 always own my home? And I think that's what has 2755 02:30:17.760 --> 02:30:20.799 people so peeved. That why there's so much momentum around 2756 02:30:20.959 --> 02:30:24.399 abolishing property tax now as the GA and the governor 2757 02:30:24.440 --> 02:30:25.840 continue to kick the can down the road. 2758 02:30:25.920 --> 02:30:28.479 Well, and that's a course I hear from my listening audience, Jack, 2759 02:30:28.639 --> 02:30:31.200 is that you never own your own home. As long 2760 02:30:31.280 --> 02:30:33.879 as they can make demands and take your home from 2761 02:30:33.959 --> 02:30:36.360 you because you can't pay property taxes, you are not 2762 02:30:36.600 --> 02:30:39.520 a real property owner.

Marcel 2779 02:31:19.200 --> 02:31:22.239 Sturbage running for Ohio Secretary of State in studio. Check 2780 02:31:22.360 --> 02:31:25.639 him out and he's an enthusiastic guy. I like Marcel 2781 02:31:26.799 --> 02:31:30.000 so real quick. Here a positive development out of the 2782 02:31:30.000 --> 02:31:33.719 appeals court Third Circuit US Court of Appeals two to 2783 02:31:33.799 --> 02:31:41.760 one ruling said New Jersey's law is in conflict with 2784 02:31:41.840 --> 02:31:44.399 federal immigration law, so they struck it down. Third Circuit 2785 02:31:44.440 --> 02:31:47.440 Court of Appeals said New Jersey's law was written specifically 2786 02:31:47.559 --> 02:31:53.840 to prevent US immigrations and customs enforcement operations crossing major 2787 02:31:54.000 --> 02:31:57.760 constitutional lines. That law interferes with the federal government's core 2788 02:31:57.799 --> 02:32:00.200 power to enforce immigration law, said the judge in the 2789 02:32:00.440 --> 02:32:04.000 two to one opinion. Specifically, it's noted that Ice doesn't 2790 02:32:04.000 --> 02:32:06.879 build its own detention fill the facilities, but contracts with 2791 02:32:07.040 --> 02:32:10.440 state and local jails to provide prisons around the country. 2792 02:32:10.520 --> 02:32:14.079 To use his bedspace. New Jersey, back in twenty twenty one, 2793 02:32:14.959 --> 02:32:17.879 passed the law barring local governments and private companies from 2794 02:32:17.920 --> 02:32:21.799 reaching new contracts with ice. State says, we're not trying 2795 02:32:21.799 --> 02:32:24.319 to control federal government or federal immigration law, but we're 2796 02:32:24.319 --> 02:32:28.959 setting our own rules for businesses operating within our borders. Now, 2797 02:32:29.719 --> 02:32:32.920 the judge said that was a subterfuge. Constitution is supreme 2798 02:32:33.040 --> 02:32:36.399 inter governmental, and immunity protects that supremacy. New Jersey's law 2799 02:32:36.479 --> 02:32:41.319 directly regulates the federal government, so it is unconstitutional as 2800 02:32:41.360 --> 02:32:46.159 applied to this entity the in the suit. So that's 2801 02:32:46.200 --> 02:32:50.760 a positive development. And here's the quiet part being set 2802 02:32:50.799 --> 02:32:55.360 out loud resurface video clip. Now, as I read this, 2803 02:32:55.479 --> 02:32:57.799 I thought, you know what, maybe Texas and Florida played 2804 02:32:57.959 --> 02:33:01.600 into the hands of Democrats sanctuary cities, because remember the 2805 02:33:01.639 --> 02:33:04.879 borders were being overrun. Texas governor and the Florida governor 2806 02:33:04.879 --> 02:33:06.479 said all right, we're putting them on buses and we're 2807 02:33:06.479 --> 02:33:09.399 gonna send to these left leaning sanctuary cities like New 2808 02:33:09.479 --> 02:33:12.840 York and Los Angeles and Chicago. And they did get 2809 02:33:12.920 --> 02:33:17.280 a whole bunch of illegal immigrants shipped up there. Now 2810 02:33:17.360 --> 02:33:19.959 me go to this twenty twenty one House Foreigner Affairs 2811 02:33:20.000 --> 02:33:26.120 Committee brief briefing Democratic Representative Yvette Clark, She's from New York, 2812 02:33:27.120 --> 02:33:30.959 talking about needing more immigrants because she needs them for 2813 02:33:31.200 --> 02:33:34.600 redistricting purposes. Remember, the number of human beings living in 2814 02:33:34.639 --> 02:33:37.719 any jurisdiction is determinative on how many representatives go to 2815 02:33:37.799 --> 02:33:41.600 the house. When I hear my colleagues talk about, you know, 2816 02:33:41.760 --> 02:33:44.120 the doors of the inn being closed, no room in 2817 02:33:44.159 --> 02:33:46.840 the end, I'm saying, you know, I need more people 2818 02:33:47.040 --> 02:33:51.239 in my district just for redistricting purposes, and those members 2819 02:33:51.319 --> 02:33:54.200 could clearly fit here. She's referring to this local Haitian 2820 02:33:54.239 --> 02:33:58.479 community that could absorb a significant number of illegal immigrants 2821 02:33:58.479 --> 02:34:02.639 into the community, allowing her to keep her numbers up. Well, 2822 02:34:02.760 --> 02:34:05.440 you remember during COVID, going back to COVID and the phenomena, 2823 02:34:05.760 --> 02:34:08.239 the various phenomenon it created, a lot of people packed 2824 02:34:08.319 --> 02:34:11.600 up their bags and left. I don't have to put 2825 02:34:11.680 --> 02:34:16.120 up with this rat hoole, disgusting infested city called Los Angeles. 2826 02:34:16.120 --> 02:34:18.280 I can move to Texas and take my business and 2827 02:34:18.399 --> 02:34:21.719 my money and work there. And a lot of people 2828 02:34:21.760 --> 02:34:24.840 did that out migration. I'm sure you've read many articles 2829 02:34:24.879 --> 02:34:26.319 about it. I've discussed them a bunch of times on 2830 02:34:26.360 --> 02:34:28.680 the Morning show. Well, when people leave. You've got to 2831 02:34:28.719 --> 02:34:32.319 have a replacement population, or the number of representatives goes 2832 02:34:32.520 --> 02:34:35.559 down and you have less power in Congress. Enter the 2833 02:34:35.639 --> 02:34:38.639 influx of illegal immigrants who will be counted toward that total. 2834 02:34:39.600 --> 02:34:42.079 So you actually have one of them on record admitting that. 2835 02:34:43.200 --> 02:34:46.159 So Texas and Florida couldn't deal with the overwhelming numbers, 2836 02:34:46.159 --> 02:34:48.319 they had to send them somewhere. But I think ultimately 2837 02:34:48.520 --> 02:34:51.319 it may very well have served the interests of those 2838 02:34:51.360 --> 02:34:54.520 Democrat cities quite well, considering they were able to stem 2839 02:34:54.760 --> 02:34:58.319 the departure population eight fifty five fifty five k City 2840 02:34:58.399 --> 02:35:01.360 Talk Station.
