Speaker 2: veterans about the Patriot boot Camp. You want to get
Speaker 2: in touch with that if you're an entrepreneurial minded veteran.
Speaker 2: That is a wonderful, wonderful event and get in touch
Speaker 2: with folks who have been out there in the world,
Speaker 2: have built successful businesses and learn what you need to
Speaker 2: know about well building a successful business for your Yeah,
Speaker 2: it's a good podcast to listen to Corey Bowman. He's
Speaker 2: running for mayor city of Cincinnati. I guess as a
Speaker 2: Republican and we all know what a Sissipian challenge that
Speaker 2: is going to be. You can hear what Corey Bowman
Speaker 2: has to say yesterday. And of course Jack Adaden who
Speaker 2: he and his wife Amesley showed up at Listener Lunch
Speaker 2: yesterday and thanks everybody mate to Listener Lunch. We had
Speaker 2: a wonderful time yesterday, and props and cheers to the
Speaker 2: Little Miami Brewing Company for allowing us to be there.
Speaker 2: Met the owner there, he was so pleased we were there.
Speaker 2: He loves when we show up and thanked everybody for
Speaker 2: making it over there. So good fun, good good food,
Speaker 2: great time, wonderful fellowship, great conversations, and uh yeah, I
Speaker 2: lost again to cribbage Mike five points. I lost my
Speaker 2: It's okay, I expect to do it. Listen. I didn't
Speaker 2: spend you know, three months underwater in a submarine with
Speaker 2: nothing to do with this. I don't accuse him of
Speaker 2: not doing anything. Of course, people on submarines have jobs
Speaker 2: to do. But I get this sneaking suspicion. They got
Speaker 2: a lot of idle time on their hands. Can you imagine,
Speaker 2: so they spent a lot of time playing cribbage, owning
Speaker 2: their skills. Anyhow, I don't really quite know where to start.
Speaker 2: I can start with DEI I can start with why
Speaker 2: not just start with the city of Cincinnati rather than gravitate,
Speaker 2: gravitate toward national issues. Sharon Colich from the Inquiry reporting
Speaker 2: on this. Remember the railway money. Remember we fought over
Speaker 2: the sale of the railway, and I was against the idea.
Speaker 2: Christopher Smithman, vice mayor of the City of Cincinnati, at
Speaker 2: one point, was against the idea. We had a lot
Speaker 2: of folks on the morning show talking about it, Folks
Speaker 2: in the know, folks with experience on railway matters. Folks
Speaker 2: that understood the reality of the value of owning that railway,
Speaker 2: and yet folks voted to sell it. Obviously, you're entitled
Speaker 2: to your opinion, you're entitled to make your cast, your vote.
Speaker 2: But the promise was predicated right on the money generated
Speaker 2: from the investment of the railway proceed and it went
Speaker 2: into an investment account, and they promised to by rate
Speaker 2: a return, and it was going to generate, of course,
Speaker 2: like everybody's four to oh one k interest and money.
Speaker 2: And they'd leave the principle alone, except under certain circumstances like,
Speaker 2: for example, if the market were to crash or drop
Speaker 2: or it wouldn't generate money, they would be allowed to
Speaker 2: dip into principle from time to time. All kinds of
Speaker 2: bells and whistles attached. But the primary predicate and limitation
Speaker 2: was that the money generated from the sale of railroad
Speaker 2: was going to do what fund existing infrastructure? And we
Speaker 2: had lots of conversations about, well, what is existing infrastructure?
Speaker 2: And you remember there's a general fund. So you got
Speaker 2: the railroad money over here, and you got a general
Speaker 2: fund over on the other side, and the general fund
Speaker 2: funds well, maybe new projects question, If you build a
Speaker 2: new project from general fund money, does that then become
Speaker 2: existing infrastructure which allows you to use railroad proceed investment
Speaker 2: money to well service it, maintain it, improve it, build
Speaker 2: on it. The streetcar is an existing infrastructure. Would adding
Speaker 2: an extra leg of the streetcar then becomes something that's
Speaker 2: part of a previously existing infrastructure program that we will
Speaker 2: be allowed to use railroad investment generated funds to service, maintain, upgrade,
Speaker 2: or maybe even expand on. All these questions are floating
Speaker 2: around and they remain floating around. But behind the scenes
Speaker 2: of all this is the reality that money is fungible.
Speaker 2: And I brought this up a bunch of times. If
Speaker 2: you've got railroad money coming in, which allows you to
Speaker 2: deal with and let's just say that they're gonna take
Speaker 2: they're actually gonna treat quote existing infrastructure as something you
Speaker 2: and I would readily understand to be something that was
Speaker 2: already built. Well, you don't have to use general fund
Speaker 2: money to maintain and keep up with existing infrastructure to
Speaker 2: get two revenue sources. But in the final analysis, because
Speaker 2: money is fundable, it's all one big pile of money.
Speaker 2: Just because you trace the proceeds from the general fund
Speaker 2: to some new project. You've alleviated the burden of the
Speaker 2: general fund to maintain let's say roads. It's a bait
Speaker 2: and switch. It was a joke from the get go
Speaker 2: oh lo and behold Sharon Cooledge from the Cincinnat Choir,
Speaker 2: reporting on this headline council proposal dedicate railway money to
Speaker 2: fifteen underserved neighborhoods. If you are in an underserved neighborhood,
Speaker 2: why don't you ask Sincinni City Council why your neighborhood
Speaker 2: is underserved? How come you've been neglected for so long?
Speaker 2: How come? Oh, I don't know. Let's say over the
Speaker 2: Rhine got the benefit of millions and millions of General
Speaker 2: Fund dollars to rehabilitate it and turn it into this
Speaker 2: wonderful walking community where urban hipsters can live, thrive and survive,
Speaker 2: and that you can no longer afford to live in.
Speaker 2: Thrown it out, just asking you and the underserved neighborhoods,
Speaker 2: ask yourself why five million dollars a year is being
Speaker 2: thrown at a streetcar that no one uses. Wouldn't that
Speaker 2: money be better served fixing your underserved community? So as
Speaker 2: Sharon Coolidge. Thank you, Sharon for bringing this to our attention.
Speaker 2: Some council members pushing to dedicate some of those since
Speaker 2: a Southern Railway sale product proceeds to benefit these so
Speaker 2: called underserved neighborhoods, despite that never being a part of
Speaker 2: the deal sold to voters. Oh remember when you voted
Speaker 2: for an assale for money to go to the now
Speaker 2: paid Course Stadium formerly Paul Brown Stadium, and you were
Speaker 2: promised that, oh, at some point you would get their
Speaker 2: money back. They would. I'm sorry, we need to keep
Speaker 2: that rate at the rate it is, because well, of
Speaker 2: course we've got to pay. We've got to pay for
Speaker 2: upgrades and stadium improvements and that ridiculous contract we negotiated. Yeah,
Speaker 2: we lied to you. Basically, this proposal seeks each year
Speaker 2: to allocate ten percent of the annual return on the
Speaker 2: sale proceeds to improve existing infrastructure and spend twenty five
Speaker 2: million dollars from the fund over time on new infrastructure.
Speaker 2: In fifteen, neighborhoods dubbed the quote rising fifteen close quote. Now,
Speaker 2: it's pointed out by Sharing that that latter part new
Speaker 2: infrastructure would be prohibited by state law which governed the
Speaker 2: railway before the sale and says the money can only
Speaker 2: be spent on current infrastructure. Here's the bait and switch.
Speaker 2: Vice Mayor Jan Michelle lemon Kearney, who's the one, I
Speaker 2: guess that brought this idea up. So the city can
Speaker 2: comply with the law by doing a money swap projects
Speaker 2: using the twenty five million dollars would be done from
Speaker 2: the capital budget, with the railroad money paying for a
Speaker 2: current project outside of the fifteen neighborhoods that would have
Speaker 2: been paid for out of the capitol budget. There it is,
Speaker 2: there's your fungibility of money, exactly as I anticipated. Look,
Speaker 2: we've got a new revenue source, so we can take
Speaker 2: that new revenue source which is limited to existing infrastructure
Speaker 2: which the city was supposed to be maintaining from the
Speaker 2: get go. And again I'll go back to Sunset Avenue.
Speaker 2: How come it hasn't been repaved? And I know there's
Speaker 2: a million roads out there in the city that have
Speaker 2: been neglected, potholes, terrible, looking, awful, and you keep waiting
Speaker 2: around for them to take care of them. Because it's
Speaker 2: something that exists. And once you build it city, you
Speaker 2: got to maintain it. It doesn't maintain itself part of
Speaker 2: your job as an elected official is to take care
Speaker 2: of the stuff that you built at the first place,
Speaker 2: or that was built by prior administrations. Existing infrastructure, stuff
Speaker 2: falls apart, roads deteriorate, the world's an imperfect place. Screws fallout.
Speaker 2: But no, no, no, we got to have new stuff
Speaker 2: and things. We got to build new stuff and things.
Speaker 2: And now apparently there are some underserved neighborhoods. Oh my god,
Speaker 2: really underserved neighborhoods who have been like many roads in
Speaker 2: the City of Cincinnati neglected. So she's actually saying the
Speaker 2: quiet part out loud. Money's fungible thanks to the railroad sale.
Speaker 2: We can now argue that it's only going to existing
Speaker 2: infrastructure previously covered by the general funds. But no, there's
Speaker 2: that new revenue source over there, so we can free
Speaker 2: up general fund money to do new stuff and things.
Speaker 2: Vice mayor quote. We have to make good on this
Speaker 2: promise to neighborhoods. Apparently, the first vote asking the city
Speaker 2: manager to look at how money is being spent now
Speaker 2: could come to council as soon as I guess next Wednesday.
Speaker 2: Kearney said the goal was to pass a law in
Speaker 2: the coming weeks. I guess creating this new project that way,
Speaker 2: she said, future councils would have to continue the investments.
Speaker 2: And does that mean the new investments that they are
Speaker 2: created by this concept then become existing infrastructure that future
Speaker 2: councils can funnel the railroad money over to keep and maintain.
Speaker 2: And even that is a laughable concept, isn't it, given
Speaker 2: that they don't keep and maintain a lot of the
Speaker 2: stuff that they've already built and have let fall apart.
Speaker 2: And in case you're wondering whether you're in an underserved neighborhood,
Speaker 2: According to the reporting by Sharon Collidge of the en
Speaker 2: Car right now village of roll Hill, Millville, Millville rather
Speaker 2: English Woods, Lower Price, Il, Queen's Gate, Went Hills, South Fairmont,
Speaker 2: West End, East Westwood, Avondale, Roselawn, Mount Airy, East brice Hill,
Speaker 2: South Cumminsville, and North Fairmont home to twenty percent of
Speaker 2: the city's population and yet described as underserved. How long
Speaker 2: have they been underserved? And how many years in a
Speaker 2: row have you elected Democrats to run the city of Cincinnati.
Speaker 2: Do you have an expectation when you continue to do
Speaker 2: the same thing over and over and over and over
Speaker 2: again that your underserved neighborhood is actually going to get
Speaker 2: attention by the elected officials and running the city of Cincinnati. Yeah,
Speaker 2: good luck with that. Kearnyan. Council members Scottie Johnson and
Speaker 2: Victoria Parks was this motion to move this concept forward,
Speaker 2: argue and again relying on Sharon Coolidge reporting, argue, these
Speaker 2: changes would ensure there's that word equity in the disbursement
Speaker 2: of proceeds. Well, you know what, let's just dispense with
Speaker 2: equity and let's just take a look at what neighborhoods
Speaker 2: are served and which ones are underserved. I would argue
Speaker 2: over the rhine in the Central Business District perhaps well
Speaker 2: if not overly served. And I imagine if you're in
Speaker 2: one of the underserved neighborhoods, in your roads deteriorating, and
Speaker 2: you have no services, crime may be high, on and
Speaker 2: on and on whatever constitutes underserved. You might look at
Speaker 2: that Central Business District and all the money that's flowed
Speaker 2: into it, including pay course stadium, and feel like, hmm,
Speaker 2: that's just not fair. Five point twenty fifty five cares
Speaker 2: the talk station. Feel free to call. I'd love to
Speaker 2: hear from you. That's something you want to talk about
Speaker 2: five one, three, seven, four nine fifty eight hundred two

Speaker 2: five KRC and iHeartRadio Station five twenty three couple in
Speaker 2: five twenty four fifty five KRS detalk station. My disregard
Speaker 2: for the clock running along in the last segment, but
Speaker 2: I tend to be a little long winded sometimes, but
Speaker 2: you can help out by calling. I'll have local stories
Speaker 2: coming up to the next segment. Apps some phone calls,
Speaker 2: Joe Strekker observes that have Purvoll's panties may be bunching up.
Speaker 2: Why well. A few hours after she was sworn in,
Speaker 2: new Attorney General, Pambondi directed the Justice Department of pause
Speaker 2: all federal funding for sanctuary cities.
Speaker 6: AFTAB.
Speaker 2: She charged the Department of Justice with identifying any valueing
Speaker 2: funding agreements with non governmental organizations that provide support to
Speaker 2: undocumented immigrants, investigating instances of sanctuary jurisdictions who might be
Speaker 2: obstructing law enforcement, and directing the day be prosecuted when necessary.
Speaker 2: And Trumps have a profound effect on these sanctuary cities.
Speaker 2: I mean you heard have to have Purval and you
Speaker 2: heard CHARMEI McGuffey utter statements which are inconsistent with the
Speaker 2: Trump administration's effort to get ice in and get rid
Speaker 2: of criminal illegal aliens, saying they wouldn't cooperate, only to backpedal,
Speaker 2: recognizing the Trump administration and now the new Attorney General
Speaker 2: Pam Bondi, threatening to well, perhaps prosecute them for obstructing justice.
Speaker 2: It's a crime. Apparently, several offices within the Justice Department
Speaker 2: provided are you ready you again worked for this your money,
Speaker 2: your labor, resulting at one point five to six billion
Speaker 2: dollars and grants the sanctuary cities and county. You're twenty
Speaker 2: twenty three alone, according to the Center for Immigration Studies. Apparently,
Speaker 2: last month US Committee for Refugees and Immigrants, a nonprofit,
Speaker 2: warned how slash funds could endanger sanctuary jurisdictions. Well, no,
Speaker 2: it would endanger the non governmental organization's mere existence because
Speaker 2: if you cut off federal funding, they're not going to
Speaker 2: make any money. They don't produce anything. They are suckers
Speaker 2: up of cash. Joke about legal departments and companies. They
Speaker 2: provide a valuable service for companies, but rarely do they
Speaker 2: generate revenue. Non governmental organizations exist because your taxpayer dollars
Speaker 2: fund them, and in many cases they your your dollars
Speaker 2: fund activities that run contrary to your in Can you
Speaker 2: imagine of one point five six billion dollars rather than
Speaker 2: going to non government organizations helping illegal immigrants stay here
Speaker 2: went to Oh, I don't know how about underserved communities
Speaker 2: in the city of Cincinnati. Just the thought five twenty six,

Speaker 2: Got it laying right there, right next to her bed.
Speaker 2: If she's still in bed right now, probably isn't Let
Speaker 2: us see we go to the local store, have a
Speaker 2: few of them in front of me, maybe hopefully fill
Speaker 2: up the time with the three stories I got. Please
Speaker 2: in Bellevue asking to help identify a car that hit
Speaker 2: a woman that happened at four am yesterday morning. Car
Speaker 2: believed to be a silver vehicle with a hatchback. That
Speaker 2: narrows it down, doesn't it, Joe. If you're out of
Speaker 2: the roads right now, look for silver vehicles with a
Speaker 2: hatch back. I'm sorry the woman got had I just
Speaker 2: you know, surveillance footage of the incident apparently is out there.
Speaker 2: It shows the car striking a woman on a scooter
Speaker 2: in the one in the block of Fairfield to have it,
Speaker 2: and then driving away once the woman sits up and
Speaker 2: begins screaming please. Chief. Jonathan McClain, talking with Fox nineteen
Speaker 2: reporting on this thanks, Brady Williams called the footage upsetting, said,
Speaker 2: I don't know how anyone cannot stop and render aid
Speaker 2: in that situation, Isn't that true? Woman who was hit
Speaker 2: does not have life threatening injuries, thankfully so they Officer
Speaker 2: mclaim could not say what her injuries were beyond just
Speaker 2: a likely concussion, said. Police are continuing the investigation. They've
Speaker 2: been locating more surveillance footage ring doorbell cameras, for example.
Speaker 2: I'm sure someone in the area has got more of that.
Speaker 2: Anyone with information that was urged to contact the Cincinna
Speaker 2: Police Department, actually the Bellevue Police Department eight nine two
Speaker 2: six one eleven twenty two. I should have known that
Speaker 2: because I said Bellevue a moment ago, still firing on
Speaker 2: four of eight A five nine two six one eleven
Speaker 2: twenty two. Now I just have to wonder if they
Speaker 2: have surveillance footage, couldn't they come up with a better
Speaker 2: description of the automobile beyond a silver car with a hatchback?
Speaker 2: Just asking three hundred and thirty million dollars mixed use
Speaker 2: development slated a break ground in the West End in
Speaker 2: early summer WCPO was mcconnor Steffan reporting, can we just
Speaker 2: talk about lack of funds and the allocation of money
Speaker 2: to underserved neighborhoods. As the underserved neighborhoods look on, we
Speaker 2: have a new three hundred and thirty million dollar mixed
Speaker 2: use development going on over on that side of town,
Speaker 2: Noah O'Brien said. People are off the charts excited. I
Speaker 2: don't know if you can see it in my face.
Speaker 2: This is the kind of opportunity that just doesn't exist
Speaker 2: in the West End. Noah O'Brien enthusiasm shared by Jeff Birding,
Speaker 2: president and CEO of FC Cincinnati, the project's master developer.
Speaker 2: Everyone is welcome, regardless of income levels, he pointed out,
Speaker 2: assuming you can afford the cost of a beer at
Speaker 2: TQL Stadium. Sentiment from the people in the West End
Speaker 2: is we want to have nice things in our neighbor hood.
Speaker 2: Going back to my comments about the underserved neighborhoods that
Speaker 2: vice Mayor is interested in serving with the railroad dollars
Speaker 2: as they look on with envy. The Entertainment District development
Speaker 2: recently received a twenty six million dollar tax credit from
Speaker 2: the State of Ohio. Plan to include a concert venue,
Speaker 2: high rise hotel, restaurants and bars, apartments, retail and office space,
Speaker 2: and more. And I'm sure those people on life's margins
Speaker 2: will be able to afford the cost of any of
Speaker 2: those venues. How Joe Streker cracking me up, he said,
Speaker 2: there will be plenty more cars to break into. Wow. Anyway, Brian,
Speaker 2: there's so many people who are excited at the opportunity
Speaker 2: on their kid's birthday to be able to go sit down,
Speaker 2: served a meal and just to experience something beautiful. It's
Speaker 2: a really a game changer. They say. Cruise will resurrect
Speaker 2: two thirteen story towers that will sit over fifty feet
Speaker 2: taller than TQL Stadium according to renderings. Birding said one
Speaker 2: will be an apartment building, so we look forward to
Speaker 2: having more people living in the West End. The other
Speaker 2: building will be a hotel with some condominiums on top
Speaker 2: project expecting to create approximately two thousand, one hundred and
Speaker 2: two construction jobs and sixteen hundred and ninety nine permanent
Speaker 2: jobs at the project side. And before I part company,
Speaker 2: I know, Joe, that's exactly what it's gonna say. The
Speaker 2: word approximately immediately followed by two thousand, one hundred and
Speaker 2: two construction jobs, and it even bothered around. If you're
Speaker 2: twenty one oh three, you're not going to get a job, Joe,
Speaker 2: five three six fifty five care see the tax station.
Speaker 2: Bobby is on the phone. I'll take this call and
Speaker 2: then we'll get to the stack of stupid, although I
Speaker 2: feel like I've already walked into it most of the
Speaker 2: first part of the morning show stick.
Speaker 8: Around a break back fifty five the talk station.
Speaker 2: In this week's market five care se de talk station.
Speaker 2: Happy Friday Eve. Everybody's welcome the call, including regular callers
Speaker 2: like Bobby. Bobby, welcome in the morning show. I was
Speaker 2: good to hear from you.
Speaker 9: Happy Thursday, my brother.
Speaker 2: Right back at you.
Speaker 5: Hey, I got some good news today for you. Do
Speaker 5: tell our new Attorney general is going to take away
Speaker 5: the funding of these sanctuary cities. I wonder if the
Speaker 5: mayor Cincinnati's gonna flip flop like a bunch of these
Speaker 5: toe suckers.
Speaker 2: I just read the article mentioning that, yeah, what did
Speaker 2: we do without federal funding before the immigration crisis hit us?
Speaker 2: What did what did cities do? And how did cities
Speaker 2: survive before COVID hit? And we went five plus trillion
Speaker 2: dollars in additional debt to throw money at a problem
Speaker 2: that the mayors of these various cities ended up diverting
Speaker 2: and throwing at their general revenue problems.
Speaker 5: Their upside down on everything, everything, everything. The next thing
Speaker 5: I have for you, Remember those AOC for President T
Speaker 5: shirts I had at your dog and doing, Yeah, I
Speaker 5: got some Maxine Waters Now after her display, I'll tell
Speaker 5: you well, we got the Maxi Water t shirts coming out.
Speaker 10: You know.
Speaker 2: The funniest thing about that is, as you say it,
Speaker 2: it sounds so comical, But that may be the best
Speaker 2: backbencher that they got.
Speaker 6: Hey, I'll tell you what you.
Speaker 2: Can't buy you you can't No, Sometimes, you know, the
Speaker 2: truth is far more comical than fiction. And there's an
Speaker 2: illustration right there. Maxine Waters gets the Democratic nomination to
Speaker 2: run for president of the United States of America. Oh,
Speaker 2: that would be comical. Thank you Bobby for the levity
Speaker 2: this morning. Let's see here over the stackers do We've
Speaker 2: got a nineteen year old wings stop. That's the name
Speaker 2: of the restaurant manager now facing felony charges after she
Speaker 2: doused two customers with hot grease and ranch dressing during
Speaker 2: your confrontation. According to police, best here to say, the
Speaker 2: victim tangled with Carnaale Irene first last name, Carnale, iron
Speaker 2: wingstop worker inside Port Saint Luci, Florida Chicken Wing restaurant.
Speaker 2: Uh Carneale, maybe it's car Mail. I got a little
Speaker 2: printing error on this. Does it really matter though? Anyway?
Speaker 2: This one told police that the customer, one of whom
Speaker 2: is a minor, were, in her words, loud and disruptive.
Speaker 2: They cause the disturbance. During this view, which is not
Speaker 2: further detailed in the rest report, one of the patrons
Speaker 2: pushed a container of straws off the counter. According to police,
Speaker 2: the conflict escalated when Irene responded by throwing ranch dressing
Speaker 2: at the victims. She then went into the kitchen returned
Speaker 2: with a bucket of hot grease, which she threw at
Speaker 2: the victims. Amen, brother, and yes there is store security footage.
Speaker 2: It was reviewed by the police and showed an individual
Speaker 2: trying to hold back a carnal, but she he pushes
Speaker 2: forward and throws the liquid in the bucket. Cops say
Speaker 2: Irene admitted a spraying and ranch dressing on the customer
Speaker 2: and justified her actions by stating that the customers were
Speaker 2: being verbally abusive and had reached over the counter and
Speaker 2: knocked over the straws. She claimed the tossed oil didn't
Speaker 2: strike the patron Joe. The recipients of the hot oil, Dowston,
Speaker 2: complained the liquid burned upon impact and resulted in shiny
Speaker 2: burnt skin. Crime scene investigator photographed their injuries when cops
Speaker 2: arrived there. At the wingstop, the eatery floor was greasy
Speaker 2: and slippery, that's in the report, and it appeared the
Speaker 2: workers attempted to clean the oil that was all over
Speaker 2: the floor. She was arrested in charge of aggravated battery
Speaker 2: aggravated child abuse, both felonies. Freed from the county jail
Speaker 2: on a fifteen thousand dollars bond fifty five k SE
Speaker 2: detalk station. What you need to do is get in
Speaker 2: touch with cover SENSI friend John Roman and the team
Speaker 2: it covers since that you can work with any one
Speaker 2: of the team members. They are brilliant in what they do,
Speaker 2: and what they do is find a better way to
Speaker 2: ensure you medically. They work for you. It's like a
Speaker 2: fiduciary obligation. They have your best interest in mind. They
Speaker 2: treat everyone individually, which is important because everyone's situation is
Speaker 2: different when it comes to medical care. You know, you
Speaker 2: got way more choices than the Obamacare and the ninety
Speaker 2: two hundred dollars annual out of pocket responsibility you have upfront.
Speaker 2: How about having dollar one coverage. That's an interesting concept,
Speaker 2: isn't it, including less monthly premium. And I know it
Speaker 2: always sounds impossible to believe, but they do it every day.
Speaker 2: There's no obligation for you. You do not have to
Speaker 2: pay them anything. Call and inquire. They'll ask you a
Speaker 2: bunch of questions when you call them. Figure out where
Speaker 2: you are in your life, what your family situation is,
Speaker 2: what your medical insurance issues, already have pre existing conditions,
Speaker 2: all the kind of stuff they need to know. And
Speaker 2: because they have access to more than two hundred insurance
Speaker 2: companies and literally thousands of insurance policies, what they do
Speaker 2: is create a package. It's like layered coverage. So this
Speaker 2: policy will deal with you out of your upfront you know,
Speaker 2: annual physicals or something with you know, no out of
Speaker 2: pocket responsibility, and then if you have major catastrophic issues,

Speaker 2: extremely expensive these days. Saturday, Pete and Jerry's Organics in Greencastle,
Speaker 2: we're robbed. Thieves stole about one hundred thousand eggs from
Speaker 2: the back of it doing distribution because they're expensive. This
Speaker 2: is in Pennsylvania. Yeah, well, if they were for walfh House,
Speaker 2: that's fifty cents extra per egg. It's a profit. Thief
Speaker 2: poachs the eggs from the back of a distribution trailer.
Speaker 2: According to those authorities, theft heurt at twenty minutes till
Speaker 2: nine pm Saturday. State police do not have additional details
Speaker 2: that the incident was under investigation. Of course, last year,
Speaker 2: the average price of a dozen eggs in the United
Speaker 2: States jumped fifty percent, and I don't know how much
Speaker 2: it's jumped this year, but they're really really, really, really
Speaker 2: really expensive. And I'm looking forward to my daughter's chickens
Speaker 2: finally starting to lay eggs because we're going to get
Speaker 2: free eggs. Rumky issued a warning about what people should
Speaker 2: not leave out on the curb less than a week
Speaker 2: after one of their trucks exploded here in Ohio Whitehall, Ohio,
Speaker 2: specifically caught on camera. Of course, it was in the
Speaker 2: Columbus area. Officials set an illegally discarded oxygen tank caused
Speaker 2: the blast inside the truck, which happened when worker was
Speaker 2: loading another gin. Explosion led debris being scattered across the roadway.
Speaker 2: No serious injuries, thankfully, were reported. Rumpky said people and
Speaker 2: businesses often placed flammable items like oxygen tanks, propane tanks,
Speaker 2: and lithium ion batteries. In the aftermath of the explosion,
Speaker 2: the company warned people about putting car fluids free on appliances,
Speaker 2: pool chemicals, smoke detectors, and pesticides or fertilizers in the
Speaker 2: curb side bins. People who need to throw away these
Speaker 2: flammable items should contact their local solid waste district to
Speaker 2: properly dispose of them.
Speaker 10: Now, who can argue with that?
Speaker 2: No one, literally no one. Caldwell, Idaho man accused of
Speaker 2: using a homemade bar code to purchase a three hundred
Speaker 2: dollars bill for the price of a canna tomato soup.
Speaker 2: And you wonder who scanned the thing and actually allowed
Speaker 2: this transaction to go forward without questioning it at the time. Anyway,
Speaker 2: Callwell Police Department issue a statement on Instagram regards the
Speaker 2: man who stole the grill from the Walmart location in Caldwell, Idaho.
Speaker 2: Officers are spotted there after receiving a call but a
Speaker 2: theft in progress. While on the way, police were informed
Speaker 2: that the suspect, thirty two year old Dylan Rockwell, had
Speaker 2: already left the store, intercepted at his home and detained
Speaker 2: without incident. Thorite to say. While he was being questioned,
Speaker 2: he admitted a stealing from Walmart on Walmart on multiple occasions,
Speaker 2: explaining that he had used a ring with a used
Speaker 2: a ring with a barcode specifically for tomatoes soup to
Speaker 2: purchase larger items. During the incident, Rockwell had used the
Speaker 2: barcode to purchase the three hundred dollars grill, which ultimately
Speaker 2: was recovered by police following the arrest, charged with Well
Speaker 2: a number of different crimes. All Right. Miami, Florida, a
Speaker 2: woman was arrested after she beat her daughter with a
Speaker 2: metal guitar and a wooden broomstick. Wh why are you
Speaker 2: doing that seriously injuring the girl, according to authorities, rest
Speaker 2: report says saida or Lania Castellanos, fifty two years old,
Speaker 2: picking up her daughter from school on Monday in Little
Speaker 2: Havana neighborhood when she became angry and frustrated that her
Speaker 2: daughter had her waiting for more than ten minutes. Oh dear,
Speaker 2: what the hell? Mimi? Police says. She became more upset
Speaker 2: after discovering her daughter, whose age wasn't disclosed in the report,
Speaker 2: was late coming out of school because she was hanging
Speaker 2: out with a group of boys. This woman and her
Speaker 2: daughter got into an argument inside the car, at which
Speaker 2: time mom called her daughter a whore.
Speaker 10: What.
Speaker 2: Once they arrived at home, Castellanos ordered her daughter to
Speaker 2: immediately begin doing her chores. According to the report, Police
Speaker 2: say the daughter instead went to her bedroom to change
Speaker 2: out of her uniform first, which angered her mom, who
Speaker 2: entered the room and began verbally insulting her daughter. A
Speaker 2: physical fight ensued, at which time Castellanas grabbed her daughter
Speaker 2: by the hair dragged her into the hallway while slapping
Speaker 2: her repeatedly in the face. The victim tripped on a
Speaker 2: piece of furniture landed on the floor, which time the
Speaker 2: mom grabbed a metal guitar that was attached to the
Speaker 2: wall and began hitting her daughter with it, causing serious injuries.
Speaker 2: Just away God bless America. Then she grabbed a wooden

Speaker 2: We'll walk through that together with Donovan and Neil for
Speaker 2: Americans for Prosperity. Aight, oh five, Mark Meckler, he's a
Speaker 2: Convention of States, President, question, do we need one? A
Speaker 2: Convention of States? I get mixed reactions from my listening
Speaker 2: audience and the concept. You know, some people are thinking
Speaker 2: it's a great idea. Others think it'd be a runaway
Speaker 2: machine too, and you know, enshrine leftist policies and undermine
Speaker 2: the Constitution. But we'll get the opinions of Mark Mechler
Speaker 2: at ATO five together. And of course it's Thursday, so
Speaker 2: we get Jay Ratliffe. I heard me, the aviation expert,
Speaker 2: Jay Ratliffe. We'll hear about the latest update on the
Speaker 2: DC helicopter plane craft Airlines sues a couple for on
Speaker 2: an onboard fight. Ninety thousand dollars at stake there plus
Speaker 2: Elon Musk says President Trump is ready to make the
Speaker 2: necessary technical upgrades the air traffic control network quickly. Man.
Speaker 2: The left is going out of their minds over Elon Musk.
Speaker 2: He's not president, no kidding, He's an advisor. You know,
Speaker 2: presidents can surround themselves with any advisors they want. Just
Speaker 2: because he's in an elected capacity. And we can argue
Speaker 2: all day long about whether that's a good thing or
Speaker 2: bad thing. But you know, the best presidents out there
Speaker 2: have surrounded themselves with the best and brightest people. I mean,
Speaker 2: Reagan is a great illustration of that. You know, Ronald
Speaker 2: Reagan did surround himself with some really good people. Now
Speaker 2: you can go ahead and pick and choose some of
Speaker 2: the ones you disagree with, but the better people around you,
Speaker 2: the better job you're going to do. And let's face it,
Speaker 2: despite what Alexander Acasio Cortes may think or conclude about
Speaker 2: Eli Musk, he's demonstrably a brilliant man. You may not
Speaker 2: agree with everything he is, but he is brilliant. Look
Speaker 2: at what he was able to accomplish. Look at the
Speaker 2: businesses he built. You know how he built them one
Speaker 2: because he's brilliant at two, because he hired the best
Speaker 2: and bride his meritocracy is what built Elon Musk's multi
Speaker 2: billion dollar worth. He employs thousands of people, he helps
Speaker 2: fund the federal government because every one of those people
Speaker 2: makes a great salary and pays income taxes. Just pulling
Speaker 2: their hair out over him five three, seven, four nine
Speaker 2: fifty five hundred eight hundred two three dog pound five
Speaker 2: fifty on eight and t fos fifty five krcy dot
Speaker 2: com getri. I heard media app but that out of
Speaker 2: the way, real quick fun fact. What an amazing thing
Speaker 2: elections have in terms of consequences after years of no
Speaker 2: one wanting to sign up for America's military, probably because
Speaker 2: it had gone full on woke and the message got
Speaker 2: out about that the true American patriots who love their
Speaker 2: country and the freedoms and liberties that it stands for,
Speaker 2: are not inclined to join America's military. Defense Secretary Pete
Speaker 2: Hegseeth announced yesterday that the Army had its best recruitment
Speaker 2: month in fifteen years during the month of January. Cord
Speaker 2: to the Post on acts breaking. In December twenty twenty four,
Speaker 2: the US Army had its best recruiting number in twelve years.
Speaker 2: January twenty twenty five, the Army hit its best recruiting
Speaker 2: number in fifteen years. Bottom line, he said, America's youth
Speaker 2: want to serve under the bold and strong America First
Speaker 2: leadership of Donald Trump. It's amazing, isn't it? Already reaching
Speaker 2: the halfway mark toward what the goal is described as
Speaker 2: being ambitious of getting sixty one thousand active duty soldiers
Speaker 2: this calendar year, while fiscal year anyway, which started an
Speaker 2: October last year, in fiscal year twenty twenty four, of
Speaker 2: the goal was fifty five thousand. Don't think they met
Speaker 2: it because well, apparently no one wants to work or
Speaker 2: actually serve in a woke military now. Some have blamed
Speaker 2: the recruitment crisis that we've been facing for years on well, obesity,
Speaker 2: academic performance, COVID pandemic. Hegzeth said the crisis stems from
Speaker 2: the military losing its warrior ethos. I'll let you decide
Speaker 2: whether the figures support Hegsath's conclusion. I would say that
Speaker 2: they do. Over to Andrew Grossman and Crystal Christian Shapiro,
Speaker 2: a lot of news and information about DEI and the
Speaker 2: eradication of it. Google now has killed diversity hiring targets.
Speaker 2: One headline West Point has gotten rid of gender based
Speaker 2: in race based clubs because they're divisive and run contrary
Speaker 2: to the military ethos. But Andrew Grossman and Christian Shapiro,
Speaker 2: writing column headline DEI and disparate impact, The next step
Speaker 2: in restoring meritocracy is to reject the theory that proportionate
Speaker 2: outcomes equal fairness, and it's an interesting observation they make.
Speaker 2: Writing on day two of his administration, President Trump ordered
Speaker 2: federal agencies to terminate diversity equity inclusion programs in the
Speaker 2: government and combat them in the private sector. And of
Speaker 2: course Trump can't force the private sector to abandon DEI,
Speaker 2: but he can focus on and point out that meritocracy
Speaker 2: is what makes businesses great. Referring back to my comments
Speaker 2: about Musk, the order follows through on his promise to
Speaker 2: forge a color blind, merit based society and to end
Speaker 2: the engineering of race and sex in every aspect of
Speaker 2: American life. Content a character, not color of skin.
Speaker 9: Right.
Speaker 2: If mister Trump is serious about his goal, he also
Speaker 2: needs to repudiate disparate impact theory, which prohibits neutral practices
Speaker 2: facially neutral practices that ultimately have a disproportionate impact on
Speaker 2: whatever protected group you want to point to, in practice
Speaker 2: often harming the very people it's supposed to protect, and
Speaker 2: they point out it's unconstitutional. Disparate impact theory first recognized
Speaker 2: by the Supreme Court in a case called Griggs versus
Speaker 2: Duke Power back in nineteen seventy one, saying Title seven
Speaker 2: of the sixty four Civil Rights that prohibits discrimination by employers.
Speaker 2: Equal Employment Opportunity Commission applied this prohibition to any policy
Speaker 2: that had a disparate impact on racial minorities, even if
Speaker 2: there was no intentional discrimination. They argue that the purpose
Speaker 2: of Title seven was to accomplish economic results, not merely
Speaker 2: to influence motives or feelings. The Justice is agreed and
Speaker 2: block power from requiring a passing score on a standardized
Speaker 2: test and a high school diploma as a condition of
Speaker 2: employment because these requirements disqualified black applicants at a higher
Speaker 2: rate than whites. Again, we're going back to nineteen seventy
Speaker 2: one here. Griggs limited aptitude testing by employers, but not
Speaker 2: the need for aptitude. And that's the salient point. One
Speaker 2: of the ways you can judge meritocracy and your ability
Speaker 2: to do the job is because of these testing that
Speaker 2: ultimately has a disparate impact on one racial minority or
Speaker 2: in a racial group or another. I mean, you still
Speaker 2: need aptitude to do the job. So what they did
Speaker 2: businesses pivoted over to a college degree requirement, which they
Speaker 2: said seemed legally safer because college is widely engaged in
Speaker 2: racial balancing. But applicants with ability but lacking the college
Speaker 2: education were blocked from positions. Griggs was limited to employment law,
Speaker 2: but disparate impact theory has since infected many levels of
Speaker 2: the federal government. Get a load of this. It applies
Speaker 2: to federally funded programs under Titles six of the Civil
Speaker 2: Rights Act, creditors under the Equal Credit Opportunity Act, landlords
Speaker 2: under the Fair Housing Act, broadband providers under the Infrastructure
Speaker 2: Investment in Jobs Act. It's been used to block criminal
Speaker 2: background tests on rent applications, school discipline policies, and underwriting
Speaker 2: criteria for home insurance. Landlords successfully sued the City of
Speaker 2: Saint Paul, Minnesota for quote unquote aggressively enforcing its housing
Speaker 2: codes because it required landlords to respond to roadent infestations,
Speaker 2: broken smoke detectors, and other hazards which could increase rent
Speaker 2: and ergo disproportionately affect black tenants. Supreme Court has repeatedly
Speaker 2: emphasized that racial balancing is quote patently unconstitutional close quote
Speaker 2: that from Students for Fair Housing versus Harvard to twenty
Speaker 2: twenty three to CIS, as well as other decisions. Yet,
Speaker 2: as the Justice is explained in a case called Ricci
Speaker 2: versus di Stefano, two thousand and nine. Desperate impact theory
Speaker 2: dictates the policies with and quote undesirable racial effect close
Speaker 2: quote are invalid. If a race neutral policy affects racial outcomes,
Speaker 2: or even appears to do so. The burden ultimately falls
Speaker 2: on the employer to prove the policy is essential, a
Speaker 2: daunting standard. In practice, this means employers, landlords, and other
Speaker 2: business must track and plan for racial outcomes and maintain
Speaker 2: racial balance before adopting policies such as drug tests. They
Speaker 2: must assess the racial impact and consider alternatives that might
Speaker 2: achieve more desirable racial balance. Race must be constantly monitored
Speaker 2: to identify potential liabilities. As just as Anthony Scaliam noted
Speaker 2: in his concurring opinion in that Ricci case, disparate impact
Speaker 2: theory places quote a racial thumb on the scale close qui,
Speaker 2: requiring employers to make decisions because of racial outcomes. Mister Trump, accordingly,
Speaker 2: should direct his administration to reverse all rules and cease
Speaker 2: enforcement based on disparate impact theory, and he should support
Speaker 2: litigation challenging its constitutionalities. Scalia Warren in the Reachi case
Speaker 2: that one day the Supreme Court will have to confront
Speaker 2: the question whether or to what extent are the disparate
Speaker 2: impact provisions of Titles seven of the Civil Rights Act
Speaker 2: nineteen sixty four consistent with the Constitution's guarantee of equal protection.
Speaker 2: They conclude, mister Trump should bring forth that day of
Speaker 2: reckoning Merit Merit six sixteen fifty five K. See the

Speaker 2: wants to talk to me. Do you ever get that
Speaker 2: feeling maybe we should give something away, pull out something
Speaker 2: from your office. Joe, Oh, that's right. You don't have
Speaker 2: an office neither do. I talk to Tony the Big
Speaker 2: Dog Bender one day about I said, I feel kind
Speaker 2: of strange. I know, I listen, I know what the
Speaker 2: ratings are, and I know there's lots of people in
Speaker 2: the listening audience. If we give away like concert tickets,
Speaker 2: the phones just like blow up immediately. I said, I
Speaker 2: kind of get concerned. I feel like I'm a lone
Speaker 2: voice in the wilder. And I said, nobody's out there listening.
Speaker 2: And you know, you got a listener to lunch. You
Speaker 2: got people listening all the time, and it's such a
Speaker 2: wonderful thing. It's it gives me an emotional boost. But
Speaker 2: I mentioned that the Bender one day because he is
Speaker 2: the program director for a long time, and he said, yeah,
Speaker 2: I was having a conversation one time. I would say
Speaker 2: he was on the air covering for someone, and you
Speaker 2: know that was the conversation they were having off air,
Speaker 2: which is, you know, nobody's calling on the program. So
Speaker 2: he said, I tell you what, pick an item out
Speaker 2: of your office. I can't remember who he was talking to,
Speaker 2: but someone who he was, who was it Rich Wahlberg,
Speaker 2: go grab something we could give away from your office.
Speaker 2: It was like like a coffee mug or just some
Speaker 2: random item. And they said, collar number six, gonna get
Speaker 2: this thing. It was a stapler. That's right, he was
Speaker 2: a stapler. And the minute he said that, the fuck
Speaker 2: lef just blew up immediately. Anyway, I can just yeah, well,
Speaker 2: what's on your mind? What do you want to talk about?
Speaker 2: Forty thousand folks so far have decided to resign from
Speaker 2: the federal government. And that's actually not that that has
Speaker 2: not yet met Donald Trump's target to get rid of
Speaker 2: federal government employees. But so far, forty thousand workers have
Speaker 2: agreed to resign and take their salaries through September and
Speaker 2: go find another job. Officer Personnel Management yesterday on a
Speaker 2: call with officials, said the number of federal workers who've
Speaker 2: accepted the resignation offer actually more than forty thousand. Another
Speaker 2: person confirmed the figure was above forty thousand at least
Speaker 2: as of yesterday afternoon. The deadlines today, so more people
Speaker 2: could take them up on the offer, and they expect
Speaker 2: the numbers to rise rapidly today given that the deadline
Speaker 2: I think is at five pm today, So the White
Speaker 2: House originally expected to be between five and ten percent
Speaker 2: of federal employees would quit. That would be about one
Speaker 2: hundred billion dollars in annual savings. As presently, there are
Speaker 2: about two million Americans working for the federal government in
Speaker 2: civilian jobs. Some of those employees are exempted from the offers,
Speaker 2: So there actually are employees out there in the federal
Speaker 2: government that even the Trump administrations believed to be absolutely necessary.
Speaker 2: And as we reported and talked about yesterday, USAID, which
Speaker 2: funds all kinds of nonsensical programs around the four corners
Speaker 2: of the world with a forty billion dollar a year
Speaker 2: annual budget, all of them, or nearly all of them,
Speaker 2: have been placed on administrative leave. That was as of
Speaker 2: Saturday morning. Dozens of Education Department employees already placed on
Speaker 2: administrative leave as well. They're doing their best to get
Speaker 2: rid of the Department of Education. Maybe they won't be
Speaker 2: able to do it. Congressionally created it was, but if
Speaker 2: you defund it, she could have a sign on the
Speaker 2: door that says Department of Education. If no one's working
Speaker 2: in there because they have no funding, you've effectually ended
Speaker 2: it more employees who were deemed as working in diversity
Speaker 2: equity inclusion offices. I've all been phased out. Oh look
Speaker 2: at the phones. Thank you very much. We're gonna get
Speaker 2: to the car. My desperate plea actually bore fruit. Look
Speaker 2: hang on a second. I'm looking forward to rather than
Speaker 2: doing local stories talking to the folks that have called
Speaker 2: in this morning. I apologize for the desperation. Foreign Exchange,

Speaker 3: known cartel members, gang members those that didn't respect our laws, borders,
Speaker 3: and sovereignty. And they want to make the case that

Speaker 2: callers are called in, getting ready to go right to
Speaker 2: the phones. But Howard Howard is annoyed by the bumping
Speaker 2: sound he hears, and I wasn't aware of it bumping
Speaker 2: the microphone, he said. It makes want to turn the
Speaker 2: station off. And I think I know what it is.
Speaker 2: It's the boom it's got. It's it's sticky, and when
Speaker 2: I move it to adjust it so it's in the
Speaker 2: right position, I think that's where that sound is coming from. Howard.
Speaker 2: I appreciate you bringing to my attention. I will endeavor
Speaker 2: on any going forward basis to not touch it. But
Speaker 2: sometimes it's a little challenging to kind of deal with
Speaker 2: the microphone. So apologies for that. There you go. Let's
Speaker 2: start with Rebecca. Rebecca, thanks for calling this morning, and
Speaker 2: a happy Thursday to you.
Speaker 12: Thank you very much.

Speaker 5: grandma yesterday.
Speaker 2: Congratulations. That's amazing. Is it your first time?

Speaker 2: a grandfather. I'm yet I've yet to reach that goal yet.

Speaker 2: Thank you, Thanks, thanks for sharing your time with me
Speaker 2: this morning. Who's next, Joe Strekker? Okay, Grandpa Gina, welcome
Speaker 2: to the morning. Shown A happy Friday eve to you.
Speaker 10: Well, good morning, and you don't sound desperate.
Speaker 9: You just sounds a little lonely.
Speaker 2: Well, you know, I have just it's just a great
Speaker 2: experience at listener lunch because almost every day of the week, Gina,
Speaker 2: I will be honest with you, I feel and and
Speaker 2: just I really have this perception I'm a lone voice
Speaker 2: in the wilderness talking to no one but myself. And
Speaker 2: when I go to listen to lunch and I meet
Speaker 2: people who listen to the show and they I just
Speaker 2: I feel uplifted and it makes me feel like, okay,
Speaker 2: good at least I know I'm not alone in the world.
Speaker 2: But you know, this morning, I was kind of feeling
Speaker 2: that way. I just thought i'd say it out loud.
Speaker 8: Well that's okay.
Speaker 6: We still love you anyway, Yes, thank you very much.
Speaker 16: You do a wonderful job.
Speaker 17: And we appreciate you for all you do, so God

Speaker 2: Geine, I appreciate it. I really do. Thank you so much.
Speaker 2: Then appreciate the SoundBite there, Joe, Yeah, I deserve that one.
Speaker 2: This morning, John, Welcome to the fifty five kres morning.
Speaker 2: Thanks for calling in.
Speaker 6: Good morning, Brian.
Speaker 17: I'm at Wark, so I only have a second, but
Speaker 17: I just want to give you this idea. You have
Speaker 17: a left hand. Absolutely no problem with Anthony Fauci, who
Speaker 17: and he was unelected. He was just a well actual
Speaker 17: he was more than an advisor. But yeah, is that
Speaker 17: a fair comparison?
Speaker 10: Why not?
Speaker 9: Yeah?
Speaker 2: Who made him Pope of science?
Speaker 18: Right?
Speaker 17: Yeah, I know, I mean he shut down businesses and
Speaker 17: oh my god, you know.
Speaker 2: I'm you know, John, excellent point. So you know people
Speaker 2: out there complaining about Elon Musk running the government unelected official.
Speaker 2: There you go, Anthony Fauci. You have to stand six
Speaker 2: feet away from each other and wear a mask that
Speaker 2: doesn't work. And he knew it at the time, pulled
Speaker 2: that idea straight from his finer. We all capitulated, fell
Speaker 2: in line. The economy shut down, people lost jobs, people
Speaker 2: were forced to get vaccines because of him, unelected official.
Speaker 2: God bless you, John, Thank you so much for making
Speaker 2: the point. You can go back to work now. It's
Speaker 2: what you should do. Let's see is that. Lois Lewis,
Speaker 2: Welcome to the show. Thanks for calling this morning, Brian.
Speaker 5: How are you today?
Speaker 2: I'm doing fine, man, I appreciate it.
Speaker 16: Excellent. I just wanted to get your take. You're a libertarian, correct.
Speaker 2: Yeah, little well, I don't abide by the you know,
Speaker 2: the the policy principles that are written down by the
Speaker 2: capital L Libertarian policy differ it. But I'm you know,
Speaker 2: I'm my own man, so I'm entitled to call myself
Speaker 2: what I want. But that's why I always say little
Speaker 2: el libertarian absolutely.
Speaker 16: I was just wanting your take on the meeting between
Speaker 16: Trump and NAHU the other day and what your perspective
Speaker 16: is on the United States taking ownership of Gaza and
Speaker 16: how you feel and how you feel that does or
Speaker 16: does not conflict with his presidential campaign promises.
Speaker 2: You know, I can't say anything as that specific policy
Speaker 2: relates to the campaign pledges or promises because I don't
Speaker 2: remember him talking necessarily about Gaza, other than, of course,
Speaker 2: trying to resolve the dispute, like he said he would
Speaker 2: resolve the dispute between Russian and Ukraine, gonna end the war.
Speaker 2: Hasn't happened yet. We'll wait and see what happens. But
Speaker 2: I think, you know, Trump's out loud statement that we
Speaker 2: are going to take over Gaza, like an ownership interest
Speaker 2: in Gaza. I think he does that just to stir
Speaker 2: the pot and to get people talking about it. Gaza
Speaker 2: is a wasteland. I don't know if you've seen pictures
Speaker 2: of it. It's just been bombed into hell. There's really
Speaker 2: no place to live there anymore. I don't believe in
Speaker 2: the idea that he can displace Palestinians that live there,
Speaker 2: that want to stay there. What right does he have
Speaker 2: to tell people where they can live into what country
Speaker 2: they're going to be sent. So I find offense with
Speaker 2: that concept.
Speaker 16: Yeah, the last question, I can't find clarity on whether
Speaker 16: it was supposed to be a temporary or permanent replacement.
Speaker 16: I keep getting mixed messages, and that will be my
Speaker 16: final question. If you could out with some parity there.
Speaker 2: Well, actually, I believe that he makes these outrageous, seemingly
Speaker 2: outrageous statements because he wants to generate interest in the
Speaker 2: concept of rebuilding that war torn country. And you know,
Speaker 2: I'm certain that there are Middle Eastern countries in the
Speaker 2: general area that think about that and now go, you
Speaker 2: know what, We actually could make Gusa a decent place
Speaker 2: to live. We could make it a safe, comfortable place.
Speaker 2: If you build it, they will come. Obviously, it's got
Speaker 2: some pretty nice beachfront properties. If you look at it
Speaker 2: that way, it could be a habitable place. And if
Speaker 2: you make it more welcoming and the terrorists aren't running
Speaker 2: the territory. It would be a welcome environment for a
Speaker 2: lot of investment. I mean, it's the right thing to do,
Speaker 2: so conceptually, I have no problem with it, But the
Speaker 2: idea that we're gonna own it is nonsensical. And the
Speaker 2: idea that you can force people to go to some
Speaker 2: country that doesn't want them in the first place, I
Speaker 2: think is nonsensical. But it's a conversation starter, and I
Speaker 2: think that's why he says things out loud, like let's
Speaker 2: Canada is gonna be the fifty first state. We're gonna
Speaker 2: buy Greenland. He didn't ask the folks that live in
Speaker 2: Greenland or Denmark about that concept, but he said it
Speaker 2: out loud, and now people are going, you know what,
Speaker 2: there's a lot of opportunity in Greenland. You know what,
Speaker 2: maybe we should welcome a relationship with the United States.
Speaker 2: That's not a bad thing. Maybe the United States will
Speaker 2: start investing in Greenland, which has a population of like
Speaker 2: fifty thousand people. So conversation starters, and I think he
Speaker 2: goes broad brush in order to get people to start
Speaker 2: talking about it. It might take anyway. Got multiple collars
Speaker 2: online and thank each and every one of you for calling.
Speaker 2: I got to take quick break here six thirty seven.
Speaker 2: But you've got curious to detalk station to mention QC
Speaker 2: kinetics because if you're one of those folks out there
Speaker 2: dealing with arthritic pain, knee pain, hit pain, joint pain,
Speaker 2: you know it's gotten worse over the years and now
Speaker 2: it's difficult climbing stairs, getting in out of the car.
Speaker 2: Everyday activities come with pain. And you've already talked to
Speaker 2: your doctor, and your doctor has mentioned surgery the s word. Well,
Speaker 2: don't go down that road yet. All natural approach to
Speaker 2: healing pain. That's what you get with QC kinetics, your
Speaker 2: body's own healing properties to treat the root cause of
Speaker 2: arthritic pain. These are biologic treatments. They take your body's
Speaker 2: natural healing properties from you and concentrate them and put
Speaker 2: them in the area where you're having pain. It's an
Speaker 2: in office procedure, there is zero down time, unlike surgery,
Speaker 2: and tens of thousands of people nationwide have gone to
Speaker 2: QC kinetics and are well living life without pain. So
Speaker 2: find out if it's a right thing for you. It
Speaker 2: may not be, but they'll tell you about it. It's
Speaker 2: a free initial consultation, so learn more about it, call
Speaker 2: them up, schedule the appointment and find out if this
Speaker 2: might work for you. It's five one three eight four
Speaker 2: seven zero zero one nine five one three eight four
Speaker 2: seven zero zero one nine. That's QC Kinetics at five
Speaker 2: one three eight four seven zero zero one.
Speaker 12: Nine fifty five KRC give.
Speaker 2: Here you go your nine first morning weather forecast today
Speaker 2: mostly cloudy to partly sunny, sun around one pm, high
Speaker 2: fifty five, partly cloudia over ninet down to thirty. We
Speaker 2: got mostly sunny day tomorrow with a high forty two,
Speaker 2: clouds over night down to thirty three. Rain in the
Speaker 2: daytime on Saturday, and high in the mid fifties. Let's see.
Speaker 11: Looking at forty right now. Time for traffic from the
Speaker 11: UCL Traumfis Center. Heart disease is the leading cause of
Speaker 11: death in the US. If you're at risk, trust the
Speaker 11: experts say. You see help for innovative and personalized hard care,
Speaker 11: expect more, and you see how dot com major problems.
Speaker 11: Downtown westbound Fort Washington Way is closed due to an
Speaker 11: overturned semi southbound seventy one and inbound Columbia Parkway. Traffic
Speaker 11: being diverted off of the highway at Third Street. There's
Speaker 11: a wreck on five past four at Port Union Chuck
Speaker 11: Ingramham fifty five KROC the talk station, six.
Speaker 2: K City talk Station. Back to the phones, we go.
Speaker 2: I acted desperation. I appreciate the calls, I really do. Mike,
Speaker 2: thanks for holding. Welcome to the program, Mike, I had died.
Speaker 19: Yeah, that's all about. Had a comin about Eli Muskin dooge. Yeah,
Speaker 19: well that is hilarious. Other you know, he was, they're
Speaker 19: grabbing it. He's an elected official and he's taking money
Speaker 19: away from unelected bureaucrats.
Speaker 6: I'm like, that was hilariously.
Speaker 19: These people are elected too, and they're wasting money.
Speaker 2: So exactly well, and we're getting rid of a lot
Speaker 2: of them too. So far forty thousand. They are expecting
Speaker 2: a lot more to take the buyout offer. Today all
Speaker 2: the DEI employees have already left and they are not
Speaker 2: around anymore. That obviously is resulting in a massive savings
Speaker 2: for the American taxpayer. All unelected officials pushing policies down
Speaker 2: our throats that do nothing to benefit the American economy. Period.
Speaker 2: It's going back to that whole idea merit is what
Speaker 2: we need. We need the best and brightest people, regardless
Speaker 2: of race, ethnicity, your sexual preference. I don't care who
Speaker 2: you're sleeping with. If you're the best and brightest for
Speaker 2: the job, take it hired, Get hired. I don't think
Speaker 2: anybody cares, But don't hire somebody just because of who
Speaker 2: they sleep with if they're not the best and brightest
Speaker 2: for the job. It makes perfect sense. And you know
Speaker 2: what I would argue Elon Musk, can you find somebody
Speaker 2: that's better? Probably be hard pressed. I mean, if your
Speaker 2: goal is to run an efficient organization, he knows all
Speaker 2: about organizational efficiency. Look at what the man has been
Speaker 2: able to accomplish. He buys Twitter and fires the vast
Speaker 2: majority of people who used to work there, and yet
Speaker 2: X renamed is still as efficient and operable as it
Speaker 2: was before they had all these thousands of workers employed
Speaker 2: there for apparently no reason whatsoever, demonstrably efficient. So there
Speaker 2: you have it, Linda, Welcome to the Morning Show. Thanks
Speaker 2: for calling this morning. Happy Thursday, Oh send to you.
Speaker 2: Enjoy your program.
Speaker 20: We've been we've moved up here in two thousand and seven,
Speaker 20: and we've listened to you just about every morning. It's
Speaker 20: good to listen to somebody conservative or independent anyway. I
Speaker 20: wanted to say two things. One was, did anyone notice
Speaker 20: nitt and Yahu's sitting there beside Trump. He was holding
Speaker 20: back laughing when Trump was talking about Gaza. You could
Speaker 20: see almost a smirk on his face, and I started
Speaker 20: to laugh. He knew what Trump was doing.
Speaker 6: Yeah.
Speaker 20: And number two, I wanted to say, thank God for Trump.
Speaker 20: How many presidents I'm eighty one years old, you know
Speaker 20: how many presidents I've heard they were going to change
Speaker 20: things in Washington, and they all of them have kicked
Speaker 20: down the kicked the can down the road, kicked the can.
Speaker 20: And this guy is doing what America really wants him
Speaker 20: to do, which is save the United States and choice
Speaker 20: and freedom for future generations. This needed to be done.
Speaker 20: And these idiots that are protesting the fact that you're
Speaker 20: not going to have a trends opera anymore, I'm just
Speaker 20: sitting there and disbelieve.
Speaker 2: They've been stuck in their echo chamber for so long
Speaker 2: they say think what they're saying actually makes sense. Regular
Speaker 2: Americans don't want to pay for a gay opera in
Speaker 2: Ireland or wherever, and all the other things that that
Speaker 2: USAID program was funding you know, and going back to
Speaker 2: the whole idea, you're funding research on shrimp with on treadmills,
Speaker 2: and you hear something like that and you think you're
Speaker 2: reading a Babylon B article like this can't be real.
Speaker 9: Oh no it is.
Speaker 2: And then there's that whole pesky gain of function research
Speaker 2: we're doing to create pandemics that will kill millions and
Speaker 2: millions of people. Thank you for working so hard American
Speaker 2: tax payers and for funding that well mangala like research.
Speaker 2: Appreciate the kind words, Linda, I really do, and I'm
Speaker 2: glad you tuned in. And yeah, I've observed the same
Speaker 2: thing over my lesser period on this earth. We got
Speaker 2: Bill in New Hampshire, Gary, Mississippi. James, you guys don't

Speaker 2: How about not painting the walls. You got that say
Speaker 2: Pepto bismo, pink living room, and even though you like it,
Speaker 2: the vast majority of the American public probably doesn't. And
Speaker 2: that's going to be something that needs to be changed.
Speaker 2: And a real estate agent will inform you about things
Speaker 2: that you should change to get the most out of
Speaker 2: your home. You don't want to go through that hassle.

Speaker 11: at Port Union Chuck Ingram on fifty five KR see
Speaker 11: the talk station.
Speaker 2: Sixth if you want pik about krcite talk station Straight
Speaker 2: to the phones we go. Got a few callers online,
Speaker 2: beginning in the order in which they received New Hampshire Gary,
Speaker 2: good to hear from you today, Cally.
Speaker 10: Going, Brian, I'm just passing on the love. You know, Hey,
Speaker 10: did I win the state work?
Speaker 2: Your callers just said your caller six you missed it
Speaker 2: by one.
Speaker 10: Oh my goodness. Hey, I just love to say, you're
Speaker 10: not alone wolf alone voice out in the wilderness, and
Speaker 10: we really appreciate you. You're not just shuting into him.
Speaker 10: There or tens of thousands of people that are listening
Speaker 10: to you every minute the other day.
Speaker 2: I appreciate that, I really do, and you know, I
Speaker 2: do get ratings books, and I kind of realize that.
Speaker 2: But some days I just it's like I want to
Speaker 2: know what other people are thinking about, what other people
Speaker 2: are curious about. I mean, I'm essentially like an editor,
Speaker 2: like for a newspaper. You know, there's millions of articles
Speaker 2: that can be reported, but there's a finite amount of
Speaker 2: space and in my case, a finite amount of time.
Speaker 2: It's why I've always commented at the end of the week,
Speaker 2: I got a ream of papers worth of stories that
Speaker 2: I never got around to. And sometimes people want to
Speaker 2: talk about a particular topic and I'm not on that topic.
Speaker 2: So that's why I enjoy hearing from listeners to kind
Speaker 2: of steer the direction of the conversation, engage in thoughtful communications.
Speaker 2: Like the last color who observed that Benjaminett and Yahoo,
Speaker 2: he got it. He was almost cracking up when Trump
Speaker 2: talked about taking over and running Gaza. I mean, nobody serious.
Speaker 2: People don't believe that we are actually going to make
Speaker 2: Gaza fifty first state or something. But initiating the conversation
Speaker 2: is what he's doing trying to get other people interested
Speaker 2: in the whole idea of turning a wasteland into something
Speaker 2: that's productive and valuable and useful so that human beings
Speaker 2: can inhabit it safely without fear of getting run over
Speaker 2: by terrorists. That's how you get a conversation started. Maybe
Speaker 2: you know it's a little in artful, and people will
Speaker 2: be able to comment and criticize him for it, But
Speaker 2: you're dealing with Donald Trump here, folks. You got to
Speaker 2: take what he says with a bit of a grain
Speaker 2: of salt and sort of try to appreciate where he's
Speaker 2: coming from. Thanks, Gary's great hearing from you, Mississippi. James,
Speaker 2: my friend, how are you today, sir?
Speaker 17: Doing all right?
Speaker 21: Doctor Bryant. Now, it's called one World Order, and that's
Speaker 21: where we hit it, brother, So you all can down
Speaker 21: play it and joke about it. That's how he got
Speaker 21: into this position, Donald Trump, and he could have just
Speaker 21: his way of run as a Democrat, and then all
Speaker 21: the jokes and the stuff.
Speaker 2: Will be on the other side. In what way, Hey,
Speaker 2: Donald Trump ran on America first, and he is doing
Speaker 2: whatever he can to make America, as he says, great again.
Speaker 2: We want us to be independent in terms of you know,
Speaker 2: our own energy supplies and our own production. And this
Speaker 2: is all for the benefit of America and hopefully you
Speaker 2: know that benefits the rest of the world. If we
Speaker 2: set the idea this free exercise of speech and our freedoms,
Speaker 2: our liberties, capitalism, productive producing businesses that hire people, we
Speaker 2: serve as an example for the rest of the world.
Speaker 2: But we're not taking over the rest of the world.
Speaker 2: We're not dealing with imperialism here.
Speaker 1: Oh, it's part of it.
Speaker 2: It's common in what way.
Speaker 22: I mean?
Speaker 2: I mean, in other words, James, how do you reach
Speaker 2: the conclusion that that is that he's gravitory, gravitating towards
Speaker 2: something the Democrats fully embrace, which is globalism, one world
Speaker 2: government that you know, these these huge businesses and industries
Speaker 2: are striving for. In other words, have something like China
Speaker 2: dictatorial China and just edicts and mandates with no legislative oversight,
Speaker 2: no no interjection of the populace in terms of the
Speaker 2: direction of the country is going. That's the left wing
Speaker 2: globalist mentality. I don't hear anything from Trump that is
Speaker 2: that is globalist related. He's just looking out for our
Speaker 2: best interest.
Speaker 21: Well, remember this, remember this time, and when they be
Speaker 21: revealed to it, you will see it all right. You
Speaker 21: may not be able to put it into words to
Speaker 21: tell you where you will accept it, but just remember
Speaker 21: this time. What's today, July, I meanly February.
Speaker 2: February. Mark it down. When James predicted that the United
Speaker 2: States would take over the world, I got it marked down. James.
Speaker 2: I think you're in the wrong direction. I think he's
Speaker 2: merely trying to set an exact ample for the globalists
Speaker 2: in the world that know that's not how to run
Speaker 2: a railroad. We'll see. So let's say keep your the
Speaker 2: pendulum swinging back and forth, as you always point out. James,
Speaker 2: I appreciate the call. Bill, I don't have time, but
Speaker 2: if you want to hold, I'll be happy to take
Speaker 2: your call. After the break. I gotta run though. At
Speaker 2: six fifty six, Right now, stick around Donovan and New
Speaker 2: Americans for Prosperity at seven thirty on Tax Cuts and
Speaker 2: Jobs Act.
Speaker 8: Covering Trump's first one hundred days.
Speaker 18: Every day we stand on the verge of the four
Speaker 18: greatest years in American history.
Speaker 8: Fifty five KRC the Talk station. This report is spawning.
Speaker 22: Rooney so Lonery so loronery and sade real roone, no
Speaker 22: one just be only sitting on my rear to phone.
Speaker 1: I walk where were hard.
Speaker 22: And make on wait within.
Speaker 2: No need to on Joe, Eric sent you that as
Speaker 2: a suggestion. Well he knows. Team America is our favorite.
Speaker 2: Seven oh six here fifty five ker City talkstation. That
Speaker 2: was lamenting like that was a lone voice in the wilderness.
Speaker 2: In the last hour, phuonesl it up. I appreciated that.
Speaker 2: Got to have some good conversations, some excellent observations. And
Speaker 2: I promise Bill, if he held he would be first
Speaker 2: out of the gate. Bill, thanks for holding over the
Speaker 2: breake there. Welcome to the morning show.
Speaker 18: All I gotta say is go Joe. A couple of
Speaker 18: quick comments on something that so Biden releases. The community
Speaker 18: sentences of these prisoners that were on death row? Is
Speaker 18: that community?
Speaker 5: Is that true?
Speaker 10: Is that the term?
Speaker 2: Well, there's a commutation and then there's a pardon. Now,
Speaker 2: if you're on death row and you have your death
Speaker 2: sentence commuted, you're gonna still spend the rest of your
Speaker 2: life in prison, at least as I understand it. If
Speaker 2: you're pardoned, then you are forgiven for whatever crime. You've
Speaker 2: been accused of and you wouldn't be you wouldn't remain
Speaker 2: in jail. So there are differences between the two. But
Speaker 2: I saw that go ahead.
Speaker 18: We're now off death row where they were isolated, and
Speaker 18: now they're into the general population of the prison.
Speaker 9: Is that true?
Speaker 2: That would be my I guess my understanding. I'm not
Speaker 2: sure how any prison is run. I've never run a prison,
Speaker 2: but I don't know if you remain in some sort
Speaker 2: of you know, isolated or you know, high security custody,
Speaker 2: anything like that. No concept, but it just means you're
Speaker 2: not going to be walking into the to the electric chair,
Speaker 2: gas chamber, or however they kill you these days. But
Speaker 2: I did see that.
Speaker 18: The general population. I don't think that's gonna work really
Speaker 18: well for them based on.
Speaker 10: Some of their history.
Speaker 2: Well, you never know, as it's always pointed out, and
Speaker 2: I've talked to members of Lawn for on this program
Speaker 2: many many many times over the years, and if you
Speaker 2: are a child molester or a child rapist and you're
Speaker 2: in prison, you are in for a world of hurt.
Speaker 2: And you know what I'm talking about when I say that,
Speaker 2: because a lot of the prisoners in prisons have children,
Speaker 2: of their own, and they don't look too kindly on
Speaker 2: child rapists, so they're in the general population, they have
Speaker 2: to deal with the challenges. I don't know that being
Speaker 2: a murderer subjects you to more attacks or or harm
Speaker 2: or represents a bigger challenge for other prisoners than anybody else,
Speaker 2: because most everybody that's in a federal prison is probably
Speaker 2: guilty of some horrific crime or another. So you know,
Speaker 2: whatever commit a crime, you're gonna have to deal with
Speaker 2: the time, and you're gonna have to deal with the
Speaker 2: consequences of being locked up in a prison, which I
Speaker 2: imagine is hell on earth, which is another reason why
Speaker 2: I'm not in favor of the death penalty. Some people
Speaker 2: are wrongfully convicted, and sometimes they're ultimately let out after
Speaker 2: DNA evidence comes out. People admit that they lied on
Speaker 2: the bench, they admit that prosecutors engaged in suppressing evidence
Speaker 2: or otherwise not handing over exculpatory evidence to the defense council,
Speaker 2: and they end up getting out. That's why I don't
Speaker 2: believe in the death penalty, even for the worst offenders.
Speaker 2: You know why, because it would be hell on earth
Speaker 2: being locked up into prison for your entire life also
Speaker 2: gives you an opportunity to get out if you've been
Speaker 2: wrong fully convicted, but there are also opportunities, and I
Speaker 2: was looking for the article as you mentioned that US
Speaker 2: Attorney General Pam Bondi seeking to reverse last hour commutations
Speaker 2: for the death row murderers, and again that would mean
Speaker 2: a commutation of the death penalty, but not freedom into
Speaker 2: the general population of the you know, not being released
Speaker 2: from prison. But pointed out that maybe state officials could
Speaker 2: pursue death penalty against the inmates under state law because
Speaker 2: a presidential commutation slash pardon only frees you up or
Speaker 2: releases you from federal crimes, and quite often federal crimes
Speaker 2: mirror the laws in states. Is like, you can be
Speaker 2: tried under federal law, you can be tried under state law,
Speaker 2: or maybe be tried under both. So just because you
Speaker 2: got off from a commutation of your death sentence by
Speaker 2: President Joe Biden doesn't mean that maybe the state couldn't
Speaker 2: also bring independent charges and pursue the death penalty under
Speaker 2: state law. Complicated slightly, but that's kind of the reality is.
Speaker 2: We're staring at it right now. Appreciate the call, my
Speaker 2: friend five one, three, seven four nine fifty eight hundred
Speaker 2: eight two three talk pound fixt fifty on AT and
Speaker 2: T phone. As I mentioned, coming up at bottom of
Speaker 2: the hour, Donovan O'Neil, what is the Tax Cuts and
Speaker 2: Jobs Act? Donald to be talking about that? Mark Meckler
Speaker 2: coming up at eight oh five on a Convention of
Speaker 2: States and he's the Convention of States President, and do
Speaker 2: we need one?
Speaker 9: What is it?
Speaker 2: What would accomplish? Are there dangers associated with with putting
Speaker 2: together Convention of States? Mark on that topic, and of
Speaker 2: course it being Thursday, Thank god, I hurt Media aviation
Speaker 2: expert Jay Ratliffe at eight thirty. Now, something I bring
Speaker 2: up all the time. I got a real problem because
Speaker 2: you know, I believe in the Constitution, and I don't
Speaker 2: believe in an imperial president. And I'm even call I
Speaker 2: call into question even some of Donald Trump's actions, many
Speaker 2: of which would be challenged in court. Going back to
Speaker 2: the whole idea of taking over Gaza maybe for the
Speaker 2: purposes of rebuilding it, because we rebuild nations that we
Speaker 2: bomb into submission, like Germany Japan, for example, in the
Speaker 2: aftermath of World War Two. We put our money and
Speaker 2: our time and resources to making those places a better
Speaker 2: place to live and welcoming them into a mutually a
Speaker 2: beneficial relationship. Now that is possible in Gaza. But the
Speaker 2: whole idea that Donald Trump can somehow pick up the
Speaker 2: Palestinian people and push them into Egypt or someplace else,
Speaker 2: I find rather offensive. Substitute the word Palestinian for Jews,
Speaker 2: and doesn't it sound remarkably Nazi esque. We're gonna round
Speaker 2: up all the Jews and send them to Egypt. We're
Speaker 2: gonna round up all the Palestinians and send them to
Speaker 2: Egypt so we can rebuild Gaza. No, I just don't
Speaker 2: like the way that sounds, and I don't think it's
Speaker 2: legally possible. And kind of agree with the top of
Speaker 2: the air news there with the European Union saying that,
Speaker 2: you know, international law may have something to say about that,
Speaker 2: you know, but talk amongst yourselves. But Donald Trump the
Speaker 2: other day said, in so far as Iran is concerned
Speaker 2: because they have threatened his life over the killing of
Speaker 2: Cassam Solomani, Trump ordered a rocket strike and killed that guy.
Speaker 2: It was a nasty figure. He led the Iranian a
Speaker 2: Revolutionary Guard Court cud's force, responsible for the death of
Speaker 2: many many people. So bad guy got killed, but we
Speaker 2: don't have a declaration of war going on. You know,
Speaker 2: we bomb people in random countries all the time. So
Speaker 2: I always mentioned, and I've jokingly said, well, what if
Speaker 2: Canada decides there's some bad guy here in the United
Speaker 2: States and they rockets strike the guy. That's an attack
Speaker 2: on American soil. That could be viewed as an act
Speaker 2: of war. Right, So Trump's I've left instructions if they
Speaker 2: do it. In other words, if they killed me, they
Speaker 2: would get obliterated. There won't be anything left referring to
Speaker 2: the country of Iran. Okay, So here we have a
Speaker 2: real life illustration of that flip side. We know the
Speaker 2: Iranians hate Trump. We know they are angry over the
Speaker 2: killing of that Revolutionary Guard corp Cuts Force leader. What
Speaker 2: would your perception be if Iran launched a rocket strike
Speaker 2: at the White House and blew up Donald Trump. Wouldn't
Speaker 2: your response be that is an act of war? And
Speaker 2: don't you think Congress might get together and declare war
Speaker 2: against Iran? I think that will be an appropriate response,
Speaker 2: But there would have to be a congressional decision along
Speaker 2: those lines. They would have to decide whether American military
Speaker 2: resources would be put to the chore and the task
Speaker 2: of wiping iron off the face of the earth, as
Speaker 2: Donald Trump claims he left instructions to do if they
Speaker 2: kill him. But the world's obviously a smaller place in
Speaker 2: this technology. Look, Iron's like two seconds away from building
Speaker 2: a nuclear bomb. So's North Korea and they already have
Speaker 2: one probably. But look there you go. Everybody and his
Speaker 2: brother now has drones, including drug cartels. In Mexico, We're
Speaker 2: about two seconds away from you having a drone parked
Speaker 2: in your driveway that'll fly you to wherever you work.
Speaker 2: This technology is pervasive, It's everywhere, and it offers an opportunity.
Speaker 2: It creates an opportunity for evil people to do evil
Speaker 2: things using the technology. So I am no fan of war.
Speaker 2: This whole military industrial complex has always gotten me down,
Speaker 2: and I think we engage in too much warlike activity
Speaker 2: around the world. How much good did it get us
Speaker 2: invading Afghanistan after the Russians were there for thirteen years.
Speaker 2: It did them no good except cost them thousands and
Speaker 2: thousands of lives. We spend a longer period of time
Speaker 2: there absolutely accomplishing nothing whatsoever. From the time that we
Speaker 2: spent there to pull the plug on it almost immediately
Speaker 2: and have more of our people killed as we're leaving,
Speaker 2: and leaving billions of dollars in military equipment for the
Speaker 2: designated enemies that we were there to try to eradicate
Speaker 2: to use to their advantage. Doesn't make any sense, does
Speaker 2: it anyway? I guess it just depends on whose ox
Speaker 2: is being gored. But when you are the strongest military
Speaker 2: power in the entire world, and you've got stuff in
Speaker 2: things that the American military has that no other country has,
Speaker 2: you can make threats and you can carry out random
Speaker 2: killings on lands that we have no war with because oh,
Speaker 2: there's the bad guy. But that world was rapidly changing.
Speaker 2: This unique American military power ability and we still are
Speaker 2: the biggest and the best on the planet doesn't just
Speaker 2: exist in the hands of us anymore. You've got to
Speaker 2: project that out into the world and think about that
Speaker 2: as we move forward and make decisions. But like I said,
Speaker 2: if ron launched a missile strike at the White House
Speaker 2: and killed Donald Trump, I think we all would agree
Speaker 2: there will be an active war, and we probably would
Speaker 2: have a declaration of war, which would be the only
Speaker 2: right appropriate mechanism for us to well obliterate them. As
Speaker 2: Trump said, your thoughts quite welcome here five on three

Speaker 2: so we'll hear what Mark has to say at eight
Speaker 2: oh five, and of course fast forward a little more
Speaker 2: than an hour to Jay ratliffire aviation expert. Always a

Speaker 2: air traffic disasters we were facing five one, three, seven, four,
Speaker 2: nine fifty five hundred, eight hundred eight two to three
Speaker 2: Taco with pound five fifty on AT and T phones.
Speaker 2: We were talking earlier. Someone brought up the idea that
Speaker 2: Democrats are actually just just beside themselves over Elon Musk
Speaker 2: and his efforts to pair back the size and scope
Speaker 2: of government and find money and save money because we
Speaker 2: spend too much. I can't imagine a human being alive
Speaker 2: that thinks the government doesn't spend too much given our
Speaker 2: national debt, and that that national debt really does jeopardize
Speaker 2: every program that exists. If you're hooked up to the
Speaker 2: bubilical court of government, maybe you're thinking about your Social
Speaker 2: Security payment, maybe you're on Medicaid, Medicare, Medicaid a curity,
Speaker 2: the social welfare programs that no one will touch because
Speaker 2: of the third whale of politics. All of those programs
Speaker 2: are in jeopardy because the government spends too much damn money.
Speaker 2: And going back to this Usaid program where forty million
Speaker 2: dollars goes to stupid things around the world. Elon Musk
Speaker 2: identifying a whole bunch of them the other day in
Speaker 2: the morning show is identifying a whole bunch of them,
Speaker 2: like they think the gay Opera or whatever. Pick and
Speaker 2: choose whichever one you want that you find offensive or stupid.
Speaker 2: You paid for it, so cut it. The world won't
Speaker 2: miss a program like that. However, I don't think they
Speaker 2: hear what they're saying. Democratic lawmakers going after Elon Musk's
Speaker 2: effort with this dodge program. Here's one representative, Diana Presley,
Speaker 2: Democrat from Massachusetts. Elon Musk is a Nazi NEPO baby,
Speaker 2: a godless, lawless billionaire who no one elected. And there's
Speaker 2: that no an elected point that people keep making it.
Speaker 2: Who's Elon Musk? And how the hell do you end
Speaker 2: up that position? He's an advisor and thanks to the
Speaker 2: color pointed out doctor Fauci, that was doctor Fauci elected.
Speaker 2: The guy who told you you couldn't visit your grandparents
Speaker 2: in the nursing home, the guy that told you to

Speaker 2: these visions of people walking around Kroger, you know, with
Speaker 2: with pantyhose wrapped around their face. And then we find
Speaker 2: out even the best mask out there doesn't stop you
Speaker 2: from exhaling coronavirus around It just seeps right through. My
Speaker 2: parallel has always been picking up a handful of sand
Speaker 2: and throwing it in a chain link fence. Well, the
Speaker 2: fence stops some of the sand from going through. Yeah, some,
Speaker 2: but the rest of it's going to go right through. Also,
Speaker 2: Iyana pressed, y elon, this is the American people. This
Speaker 2: is not your trashy cyber t truck that you can
Speaker 2: just dismantle, pick apart and sell the pieces of. Well,
Speaker 2: you can also argue the flip side, which is, wait,
Speaker 2: wait a second, why are you in government, elected or
Speaker 2: unelected officials in charge of allocating the scarce taxpayer dollars,
Speaker 2: throwing money and approving programs globally that advanceed woke agenda.
Speaker 2: We didn't ask for that. I mean did anybody in
Speaker 2: my listening audience ask for that? I mean, did you
Speaker 2: really think about when you were voting for someone that
Speaker 2: I'm really hoping we fund a gay lesbian opera in
Speaker 2: Ireland or something ore? Again, the creation of a virus
Speaker 2: that creates a pandemic that kills millions of people? Do
Speaker 2: you sign up for that? What elected officials decided that
Speaker 2: that was a good idea?
Speaker 9: None?
Speaker 1: Not a one.
Speaker 2: And in fact it was contrary to the order of
Speaker 2: believe President Barack Obama, who said we don't, we should
Speaker 2: not fund any of this research. What happened fout you
Speaker 2: went ahead and approved it and funded it anyway. Unelected
Speaker 2: official at least Musk is taking strides and efforts to
Speaker 2: stop that crap from happening, and I applaud those efforts,
Speaker 2: and maybe we should thank God for unelected officials at
Speaker 2: least have some measure of understanding about how a well oiled,

Speaker 2: happy Friday eve to you. Welcome back to the fifty
Speaker 2: five KRC Morning Show. Another appearance by Donald and Neil
Speaker 2: with Americans for Prosperity. I guess in a celebratory mood,
Speaker 2: Americans for Prosperity, is you sent out thank you kartch
Speaker 2: for those who voted for the tax cuts in Job
Speaker 2: Act of twenty seventeen. Welcome back down on the Neil.
Speaker 2: It's always good to talk with you. Hey, good to
Speaker 2: be here. Absolutely yeah.
Speaker 13: Well usually, you know, so we roll up to these
Speaker 13: congressional offices and they're like, what do we do wrong
Speaker 13: asps here? But this time what we were doing, they
Speaker 13: can the green and yellow scars are showing up. No,
Speaker 13: in this case, part of what we did is, you know,
Speaker 13: the twenty seventeen Trump tax cuts and Jobs Act. We
Speaker 13: reissued some thank you cards on that, not because we're
Speaker 13: a few years late in getting our appreciation out, but
Speaker 13: because we wanted to remind folks these five members of
Speaker 13: Congress Jim Jordan, Warren Davidson, Mike Turner, Dave Joyce, and
Speaker 13: I've got somebody on the tip of my tongue, it's
Speaker 13: flipping past me, Bob Lada had all voted for that
Speaker 13: original Act. We wanted to thank them for their work
Speaker 13: then and use that to begin to drive the conversation
Speaker 13: about how we need to make these Trump tax cuts permanent.
Speaker 13: And so it was great to go out and get
Speaker 13: a lot of signatures and start to engage folks on
Speaker 13: something that they've probably forgot a little bit about, because
Speaker 13: you know, twenty seventeen feels like a lifetime ago.
Speaker 2: For a minute, folks, it really does. And I was
Speaker 2: kind of chuckling to myself about twenty seventeen and you're
Speaker 2: thanking them for something they did back in twenty seventeen,
Speaker 2: because obviously it's facing expiration. That's the thing that I'll
Speaker 2: be quite candid and blunt in my comments. It pisces
Speaker 2: me off that they don't make these cuts permanent. And
Speaker 2: require a subsequent Congress to take the step to actually
Speaker 2: increase our taxes, which is never a popular thing.
Speaker 6: Yeah.
Speaker 13: Well, you know the reason they do this is because
Speaker 13: you know, there there are always a handful of folks,
Speaker 13: these are always slim majorities we have who you know,
Speaker 13: say hey, we gotta we gotta make sure the fiscal
Speaker 13: note looks healthy. And I think that's a that's an
Speaker 13: honorable thing to do, right. We want fiscal conservatives. We've
Speaker 13: folks who like that, But I think you could achieve
Speaker 13: a better outcome if you did what you're saying there, Brian, Right,
Speaker 13: make the tax cuts permanent and force them to go
Speaker 13: back and actually say we're gonna claw this money from
Speaker 13: our citizens, rather than reversus saying we're gonna we're just
Speaker 13: gonna let them expire so we can have a healthier
Speaker 13: fiscal note. We need more restraint across the board.
Speaker 2: Well, it also, I mean a permanent tax cut or
Speaker 2: even a permanent tax increase, if you want to go
Speaker 2: that route and you think it's the right thing to do,
Speaker 2: it at least allows businesses the perception of planning. They
Speaker 2: don't have to worry about the end coming and how
Speaker 2: they're going to react when they know that this is
Speaker 2: going to disappear at a certain calendar date. It's just
Speaker 2: it throws, you know, advanced planning on its head.
Speaker 13: Well, it's an absolutely key point. And one of the
Speaker 13: things that we're driving right is that these these tax cuts,
Speaker 13: the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, impacts folks up and
Speaker 13: down the income scale. It impacts not just individuals, but businesses,
Speaker 13: not just big businesses.
Speaker 6: It impacts small mom and pop shops.
Speaker 13: Right, they can take some of their depreciation and apply
Speaker 13: it to this tax, to the current TAXI rather than
Speaker 13: the other. But right now, because of these tax that's
Speaker 13: expiring in some of the tax planning an unknown what
Speaker 13: they should be doing this year to prep for next
Speaker 13: year until Congress gets some stability in place and makes
Speaker 13: these Trump tax cuts permanent.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and I love the argument that they make all
Speaker 2: the time because no one has ever identified what quote
Speaker 2: unquote fair share is. They don't pay their fair they
Speaker 2: need to pay their fair share, they need to pay
Speaker 2: their And you question that, like, well, wait a second,
Speaker 2: what is fair share? Because it seems to be a
Speaker 2: moving target for anybody making those statements. But then as
Speaker 2: we sit here and going back to Elon Musk and like,
Speaker 2: for example, that whole USAID program at forty billion dollars,
Speaker 2: showing out nonsensical money, massive quantities of money for really
Speaker 2: nonsensical problem or issues or projects throughout the world. Stop
Speaker 2: and puzzle. Sometimes I think the LUFT just says we
Speaker 2: need to take more money merely for the sense of
Speaker 2: taking it away and depriving whoever they're taking it from
Speaker 2: of their freedom to spend it wherever the hell they want.
Speaker 2: And when you step back and look at what they're
Speaker 2: spending on, you're like, wait a second, you don't you
Speaker 2: don't need to take more money. You're already wasting billions
Speaker 2: and billions of dollars on stupid things that even the
Speaker 2: left wingers don't want.
Speaker 13: Well, I think that's part of what is being exposed
Speaker 13: through some of what the DOGE, Department of Government Efficiency,
Speaker 13: Elon Musk and the current Trump administration are doing. Right,
Speaker 13: they're sort of exposing what you're saying there, Right, It's
Speaker 13: never enough, There's no there's no fair share, there's no
Speaker 13: upper limit. There's this idea, and it exists not just
Speaker 13: in Congress, but in Columbus, where they know better than
Speaker 13: us how to spend our money. They can better help
Speaker 13: our communities than we can. And it's just a fundamental
Speaker 13: conflict divisions as Thomas soul book, great book, but it's
Speaker 13: the conflict divisions. They believe they know better than us,
Speaker 13: the people, and it's wrong, it's wrong, and it's why
Speaker 13: we got to fight for these tasks. That's what we've
Speaker 13: got to fight back against, this effort to continue to
Speaker 13: grow the size and scope of government and support initiatives
Speaker 13: like this that are going to help keep the money
Speaker 13: in our pockets. So we did support the initiatives in
Speaker 13: our communities and help our neighbors out, not wait for
Speaker 13: the government to show up and.
Speaker 2: Do that well. And isn't it a sorry state of affairs?
Speaker 2: And you know, I'll pick on the military budget, and
Speaker 2: it's worthy of picking on. It's huge. It's more than
Speaker 2: like the entire globe spends on American military. And you're
Speaker 2: talking to someone who loves the American veteran and thanks
Speaker 2: every single one of them for enlisting and defending our
Speaker 2: country and doing the right thing by America. But when
Speaker 2: you look at the numbers, there is so much fraud, waste,
Speaker 2: and abuse in just that one segment of government that Donovan. O'Neil,
Speaker 2: you know as well as I do. They can't even
Speaker 2: pass an audit. They can't even get in all. They
Speaker 2: tried eight times and failed every time. Hold on, Donald,
Speaker 2: I'll tell you what. Just leave that sit right there
Speaker 2: and we'll bring it back because we're out of time
Speaker 2: in the segment. I'm not through with you yet. Thought
Speaker 2: of it, O'Neil. I'll just pause for we'll bring Donovan
Speaker 2: right back. After I mentioned my good friends at Zimmer

Speaker 2: with Donovan and Neil from Americans for Prosperity, talking about
Speaker 2: the tax cuts and Jobs Acts up twenty seventeen, which
Speaker 2: is set to expire, trying to keep it in place.
Speaker 2: And you know, Donovan, going back to my earlier comments,
Speaker 2: I really get the suspicion that I mean, this is
Speaker 2: not somebody would make the argument that, well, we need
Speaker 2: more taxes from people, We need to raise taxes because
Speaker 2: we've got this massive debt that we have built up.
Speaker 2: We need to pay that down or something. But it's
Speaker 2: a laughable proposition because it just keeps getting bigger and bigger,
Speaker 2: regardless of which administration assigned, that the federal government just
Speaker 2: spends too much. And then as we are finding out
Speaker 2: now more and more each and every day, thanks to
Speaker 2: Elon Musk and Donald Trump, or Donald Trump and Elon Musk,
Speaker 2: that we have a fat, bloated government that just spends
Speaker 2: countless billions of dollars on stuff and things that nobody
Speaker 2: in the American public wants, needs or is benefited by,
Speaker 2: which leads me to conclude, and I'm interested in your
Speaker 2: reaction on this, it's not really about providing needed, valuable
Speaker 2: government services. It's more about just taking money just because
Speaker 2: their perception is, well, you just make too much, we
Speaker 2: need to take it away from you. This whole concept
Speaker 2: of you know, from each according's bility, each courting is
Speaker 2: a need or socialism or some form of twisted Marxism.
Speaker 2: It's not about efficiency, it's not about doing good. It's
Speaker 2: just about leveling the financial playing field for no other
Speaker 2: reason than to level the financial playing field.
Speaker 10: Yeah.
Speaker 13: Well yeah, so it's using in that case, right, it's
Speaker 13: using the federal government or e government's taxing cysts mechanism
Speaker 13: to achieve social outcomes right in that equity. Yeah, and
Speaker 13: it's uh, you know that's a problem, right, because that's
Speaker 13: not that's not how how this should work.
Speaker 2: Right.
Speaker 6: We should be we should be given.
Speaker 13: The government, letting the government take right permissively, letting the
Speaker 13: government take just what it needs to provide its core
Speaker 13: essential services. And when it comes to the federal government, Brian,
Speaker 13: just a couple of things come to mind from me, right.
Speaker 13: One is national defense. Let's make sure we can protect
Speaker 13: ourselves from the enemies abroad. And border security. Let's make
Speaker 13: sure that what we we have integrity as a nation,
Speaker 13: and we could secure our borders and know who's coming
Speaker 13: and going, and the good folks should be able to
Speaker 13: get here and the bad folks should stay out. Beyond that,
Speaker 13: there ain't a lot the federal government should be doing. Now,
Speaker 13: you know, that's it's hard to get back to that
Speaker 13: kind of purity, right and clarity, and what the federal
Speaker 13: government subjectives are, but it seems like we're taking a
Speaker 13: good stab at.
Speaker 6: It right now with what dose is doing.
Speaker 2: And if we can.
Speaker 13: Keep the government off of our paychecks and make these
Speaker 13: tax cuts permanent, it's another step in right direction to
Speaker 13: not keep feeding the beast that just will never have
Speaker 13: enough of our hard earned money.
Speaker 2: All right, now, moving back to the challenge. Obviously Democrats
Speaker 2: are not going to be in favor of renewing or
Speaker 2: keeping in place the Trump tax cuts under the TCJA.
Speaker 2: But in the face of everything that's being revealed, do
Speaker 2: you think they're going to lose their argument along those
Speaker 2: lines and that their own constituents are going to say,
Speaker 2: wait a second, Wait a second, you guys really don't
Speaker 2: need more money. And in fact, the less money you
Speaker 2: take out of our paychecks, the more tax revenue will
Speaker 2: flow into the Washington federal government because will be more efficient,
Speaker 2: will produce more goods and services and ergo more revenue,
Speaker 2: more people employed because we've got freedom to hire people
Speaker 2: with the money that they didn't take. That's the reality
Speaker 2: of lower taxes. No one seems to want to admit it,
Speaker 2: but it's been proven over and over again.
Speaker 13: Yeah, well, without a doubt, and I think nobody left,
Speaker 13: right or in between the likes to see money being
Speaker 13: misspent right, And I think that's part of what is
Speaker 13: being talked about right now, is that this money isn't
Speaker 13: going you know, it's going to a lot of things,
Speaker 13: but it's not going to the things that are going
Speaker 13: to actually help people where they're hurting, right with their
Speaker 13: grocery bill, with their filling up their car, with paying
Speaker 13: their utilities, of getting their kids through school.
Speaker 8: With finding the job right. And I think you know
Speaker 8: your drive on.
Speaker 13: That message, and then you connect folks to the reality
Speaker 13: that you know, we don't need to be feeding a
Speaker 13: rape system and this is your money, not Washington's. And
Speaker 13: I think we've got a winning formula to be successful
Speaker 13: at this stage to get things done. Folks are coming
Speaker 13: out of four years of Bidenomics. They're paying, as I
Speaker 13: think some like twelve thousand more to live the same
Speaker 13: standard of living they were living four years ago when
Speaker 13: Trump was back and off it was in office. The
Speaker 13: first time Bidenomics made people have to spend twelve thousand
Speaker 13: dollars more a year just to maintain their standard of living.
Speaker 13: They want relief, and when they hear that billions of
Speaker 13: dollars are going overseas to wacky programs. They demand accountability.
Speaker 13: And I think this is going to the conversation happening
Speaker 13: now in Washington around DOGE and USAID is helpful in
Speaker 13: the conversation around why we need to have the Trump
Speaker 13: tax customer permanent and we need to rein in the
Speaker 13: out of control monster that is the US federal government bureaucracy.
Speaker 2: Yeah, no question about it. And you know, bidnomics in
Speaker 2: part is literally the running of the fat currency printing press.
Speaker 2: The more dollars you produce and generate just out of
Speaker 2: thin air, the less your dollar in your pocket is worth.
Speaker 2: I mean, that's just just generally accepted economic reality.
Speaker 13: Thomas Massey had a really good clip that made the
Speaker 13: rounds a week or so ago. I feel like where
Speaker 13: he demonstrated that in a congressional hearing. Right, diluting water, it's.
Speaker 8: What it doesn't dilutes the value of your dollar.
Speaker 13: And every time the federal government prints more money or
Speaker 13: comes up with a new program, that's our dollar being diluted.
Speaker 13: It's less and has less buying powered, has less impact,
Speaker 13: and you got to work more hours and harder to
Speaker 13: keep up with the standard living you were living before
Speaker 13: the federal government printed the most recent million, billion or
Speaker 13: trillion dollars whatever it might be doing right now to
Speaker 13: spend on a new program. It's got to stop. And
Speaker 13: one of the best ways to stop it is to
Speaker 13: not keep feeding the system. To make these tax fits
Speaker 13: permanent and let us keep our hard earned money so
Speaker 13: that the federal government doesn't get its hands on it
Speaker 13: and go out and spend find new ways to spend it,
Speaker 13: and then some well.
Speaker 2: As we always typically end our conversations, I want to
Speaker 2: do it again today, Donovan and Neil for Americans for Prosperity.
Speaker 2: By listeners and I and everyone can play a part
Speaker 2: in trying to keep these tax cuts in place. What's
Speaker 2: the call to action? How can we act and what
Speaker 2: do you recommend doing well?
Speaker 13: We'd like you to go to Protect prosperity dot com.
Speaker 13: At the very top of protect prosperity dot com, there's
Speaker 13: a take action button. Take action that'll get you into
Speaker 13: our system so we can contact you and let you
Speaker 13: know about upcoming events and problems and maybe maybe some
Speaker 13: congressional office visits will have coming up. But we want
Speaker 13: to hear your story. We want you to join our
Speaker 13: ranks a lot of a good time, and we're going
Speaker 13: to save the country while we're doing it. Protect Prosperity
Speaker 13: dot com take action. A member of work team will
Speaker 13: reach out to you and we'll get your plugged into
Speaker 13: what we've got going on in Southwest Ohio.
Speaker 2: I encourage everyone to do that. Donald and the team
Speaker 2: at Americans for Prosperity doing a fabulous job, demonstrable success.
Speaker 2: We can point to on other calls to action that
Speaker 2: you've announced on the morning show. And I know my
Speaker 2: listeners are really engaged, so we'll keep them engaged. Protect
Speaker 2: Prosperity dot com. Donald O'Neil, keep up the great work
Speaker 2: at Americans for Prosperity. I look forward to having you
Speaker 2: back on the program, probably with more good news down
Speaker 2: the road. We'll be here. Thanks, Brian, I know you will. Man,
Speaker 2: God bless each and every one of you. Seven nine
Speaker 2: right now, if if you five care see the talk station.
Speaker 2: Imaging can be affordable, and I'm talking hospital imaging. You
Speaker 2: don't have to go to the hospital imaging department for
Speaker 2: your your MRIs and CT scans, ultrasounds, lung screenings, cardiacs scorings. Yeah,
Speaker 2: when I'm talking about affordable imaging Services. I quite often
Speaker 2: failed to mention how inexpensive a lung screening can be.
Speaker 2: Not at the hospit little imaging department. It's only ninety
Speaker 2: nine dollars at Affordable Imaging Services for that lung screening.
Speaker 2: So if you need a lung screening, you know a
Speaker 2: historic smoker, your doctor will recommend one. That's where you
Speaker 2: need to go. You have a choice when it comes
Speaker 2: to your medical care, so don't spend thousands, spend ninety
Speaker 2: nine dollars. How about the most expensive image you can
Speaker 2: get at affordable imaging services That will be an MRII
Speaker 2: with a contrast, Unlike the hospital which might charge you
Speaker 2: three thousand, four thousand, five thousand dollars, it's six hundred
Speaker 2: and forty five dollars. Every image at Affordable Imaging Services
Speaker 2: comes with a board certified radiologist report that both you
Speaker 2: and your physician will get within forty eight hours of
Speaker 2: the image. It's low overhead, no bells and whistles at
Speaker 2: Affordable Imaging Services, but the same equipment hospital use. Do
Speaker 2: you need the marble sculpture and all of the massive
Speaker 2: building space that you're paying for in the imaging department
Speaker 2: of course, not all you need is great equipment and
Speaker 2: responsible ought or you know, qualified people to do the imaging,
Speaker 2: and that's what you get. You can go out very
Speaker 2: happy because you have more money in your pocket and
Speaker 2: a lot more hell, a CT scan can cost you
Speaker 2: five thousand dollars at a hospital, and everybody's gonna end
Speaker 2: up getting an image at some point in their life.
Speaker 2: I've been down that road many times, and I've gone
Speaker 2: to affordable imaging Services a couple of times, and I've
Speaker 2: got one schedule for a CT scan in April find
Speaker 2: out where my cancer is currently. And my doctor was
Speaker 2: perfectly fine with the image. I mean, she said, you're
Speaker 2: gonna go to the same place. I got home from
Speaker 2: that appointment and they had already called into Affordable Imaging
Speaker 2: Services to schedule to get the things scheduled. It's a
Speaker 2: great operation. So save money, put a smile on your face,
Speaker 2: and especially in a new calendar year, if you're under
Speaker 2: an Obamacare policy, remember you got ninety two hundred dollars
Speaker 2: that's going to come out of your pocket before a
Speaker 2: medical insurance even kicks in. So don't spend the money.
Speaker 2: Go to affordable imaging services and save a heap load
Speaker 2: five one three seven five three eight thousand, five one
Speaker 2: three seven five three eight thousand online. Learn more about
Speaker 2: all the pricing and information at Affordable Medimaging dot com.

Speaker 2: Eight oh five The fifty five kr C The Talk Station,
Speaker 2: A very happy Friday eve to you. I heard media
Speaker 2: aviation expert Jay right left the bottom of the air.
Speaker 2: I always look forward to talking to Jay, and I've
Speaker 2: been looking forward to this conversation for a some time.
Speaker 2: Mark Meckler, he's quite a guy, and you probably are
Speaker 2: familiar with him if you don't know his name. He
Speaker 2: is responsible for a bunch of things political pundit. He's
Speaker 2: an attorney, fellow attorney, business executive president of Citizens for
Speaker 2: Self Government Governance. And what we're going to be talking
Speaker 2: about a Convention of States Actions. An active proponent of
Speaker 2: a convention to propose amendens the United States Constitution, a
Speaker 2: movement that's actually growing in size and strength. Welcome to
Speaker 2: the fifty five KRC Morning from Market's a real pleasure
Speaker 2: to have you on today.
Speaker 6: Good morning, Brian, it's an honor to be with you.
Speaker 2: Now, let's just start with the basics. Article five, Convention
Speaker 2: to States. Explain to my listeners what this proposal will
Speaker 2: allow us to do. What is the goal ideally of
Speaker 2: this action.
Speaker 6: Yep, you know it's funny that we have to explain it, Brian.
Speaker 23: As a lawyer, I went to law school and realized
Speaker 23: many years later and have actually read the Constitution in
Speaker 23: law school.
Speaker 2: So I know I have read the Constitution since law school,
Speaker 2: but you don't really dive into it.
Speaker 6: Yeah, so most people don't know about this.
Speaker 23: Article five in the Constitution contains the ways in which
Speaker 23: we are able to amend the Constitution. It has two ways.
Speaker 23: One is when two thirds of Congress wants to propose
Speaker 23: an amendment, they can do so, and then they send
Speaker 23: that out to the states for ratification by three quarters
Speaker 23: of the states or thirty eight states. The second way
Speaker 23: the Framers gave to us is to call a convention
Speaker 23: of states, and it takes two thirds of states or
Speaker 23: thirty four states to call a convention. And the reason
Speaker 23: they gave us this method they said in Convention that
Speaker 23: they knew that the federal government we can become a
Speaker 23: tyranny at some point, and that the states would have
Speaker 23: to have a way to reign in the federal government.
Speaker 23: So that's why they gave us this second clause of
Speaker 23: Article five. And basically what it does is allows the states,
Speaker 23: when two thirds of them want to to gather in convention,
Speaker 23: they have to state in advance the reasons they want
Speaker 23: to gather in convention, and the states.
Speaker 6: All have to agree.
Speaker 23: Thirty four states have to degree on the reason, and
Speaker 23: they can go to convention propose amendments. And the primary
Speaker 23: reason is to restrain the federal government. And so right
Speaker 23: now we have a movement going on. Nineteen states have
Speaker 23: passed a resolution to impose term limits on federal officials.
Speaker 23: That's the electeds, but also the deep state that we're
Speaker 23: seeing so exposed right now, staffers and bureaucrats. Number two,
Speaker 23: to impose fiscal restraints on the federal government, like a
Speaker 23: balanced budget amendment, spending caps, tax caps, and number three,
Speaker 23: and I think most importantly personally, is to restrain the
Speaker 23: scope and jurisdiction of the federal government. So, for example,
Speaker 23: when the president is talking about getting rid of the
Speaker 23: Department of Education.
Speaker 6: I think that's great, but we need to make.
Speaker 23: That permanent administry, and we'll put it back in place
Speaker 23: so you can have an amendment, for example, that says
Speaker 23: there can be no involvement of the federal government in education,
Speaker 23: and that would do a way with a Department of
Speaker 23: Education permanently.
Speaker 2: Well, it seems to me one of the easiest mechanisms
Speaker 2: to achieve the goal of tearing back the excessive reach
Speaker 2: of government springs from a case I know, you know,
Speaker 2: which involves the commerce clause Wickered versus Philburn, which allows
Speaker 2: them to pretty much do anything they damn will please,
Speaker 2: literally anywhere, simply because anything we do impacts interstate commerce,
Speaker 2: even on a minuscule level.
Speaker 23: Yeah, you know, it's funny you bring up that case.
Speaker 23: So few people who are not lawyers know about it.
Speaker 23: We who are lawyers know it's actually insane. That case
Speaker 23: basically said there was a farmer in Ohio who's growing
Speaker 23: wheat for the consumption of his own family, and the
Speaker 23: federal government penalized him for growing too much wheat. And
Speaker 23: he said, look, you have no authority over me because
Speaker 23: I didn't do anything other than grow weak for my
Speaker 23: own family. I'm not engaged in interstate commerce. And the
Speaker 23: federal government said, yeah, exactly, you didn't do anything. That's
Speaker 23: why we can regulate you. Yeah, and even what do
Speaker 23: you mean?
Speaker 6: And the court ruled that well, because he didn't sell.
Speaker 23: His wheat in interstate commerce and he didn't buy weed
Speaker 23: in interstate commerce, he affected interstate commerce.
Speaker 6: In other words, he did nothing, so he.
Speaker 23: Could be regulated, and that gave the federal government the
Speaker 23: power literally to regulate just about anything.
Speaker 2: I don't mean to move off topic, because that, to
Speaker 2: me is such a critical case in expanding the size
Speaker 2: of the scope of government. I mean, the EPA uses
Speaker 2: it a teaspoon of water on your land and they
Speaker 2: can regulate it. It's just it's insanity. Do you think
Speaker 2: ever in your or my lifetime that it can more
Speaker 2: conservative Supreme Court which we currently have. It may even
Speaker 2: be more conservative if Trump has his way and gets
Speaker 2: more justices appointed. Would ever overturn the lunacy of that case?
Speaker 23: You know, we have no indication right now that that
Speaker 23: would happen. I think they will pair back that case.
Speaker 23: I want people to understand, because we're lawyers. I want
Speaker 23: to kind of just bring it to layman's terms. Because
Speaker 23: my mind works more like a layman. What we're talking
Speaker 23: about about is the Supreme Court removing authority for the
Speaker 23: federal government to allow.
Speaker 6: These agencies in these regulations.
Speaker 23: And in other words, because of the Commerce Clause, the
Speaker 23: federal government is allowed to have an EPA USDA all
Speaker 23: of these agencies Department of Energy, Department of Education, each
Speaker 23: of these agencies requires authority under the Constitution. None of
Speaker 23: them have it in writing under the Constitution. Right, this
Speaker 23: is an interpretation by the Supreme Court creating that authority.
Speaker 23: So the Court would have to say, oh, we were
Speaker 23: wrong on that commerce cause case, not just that one,
Speaker 23: but a whole line of cases that follow it. Indeed,
Speaker 23: so I think they might pair back on it. But
Speaker 23: if we want to make dramatic progress on that, we
Speaker 23: can do that in a Convention of States. We can
Speaker 23: reinterpret or go back to the original interpretation of the
Speaker 23: Commerce Clause, which actually just said that the federal government
Speaker 23: has the power to regulate, which meant to smooth out
Speaker 23: Back then, it didn't mean to prepare all these regulations
Speaker 23: interstate commerce, and commerce meant the shipment of goods across
Speaker 23: state lines. Trying to do is prevent trade wars between
Speaker 23: the states exactly.
Speaker 2: I mean, it just seems so simple a solution, and
Speaker 2: I know everybody would face an uphill challenge getting a
Speaker 2: Supreme Court to overturn that long standing, ridiculous precedent, But
Speaker 2: I think some of the goals of Convention of the
Speaker 2: States that you're talking about could be achieved if they
Speaker 2: would reverse that. I mean, that's kind of that's kind
Speaker 2: of why I initially gravitated towards me bring even bringing
Speaker 2: that case up, Mark, because you know, we need to
Speaker 2: amend the Constitution if that one case was overturned and
Speaker 2: they took away the federal government's power to regulate stuff
Speaker 2: that we are not doing over across state lines.
Speaker 6: So and yeah, look, you nailed it, Brian. I think
Speaker 6: that's really important.
Speaker 23: It would probably do a way, we don't know the
Speaker 23: exact number, but probably do away with forty to fifty
Speaker 23: percent of the federal government because they just wouldn't have
Speaker 23: the authority to operate anywhere. Yay.
Speaker 2: Now, can we put that on the list of things
Speaker 2: of the Convention of States to do to redefine the
Speaker 2: commerce clause to actually mean cross state line commerce and
Speaker 2: not just any activity that might somehow impact commerce generally.
Speaker 23: I can guarantee you that's something that I will be
Speaker 23: lobbying for if I'm a convention.
Speaker 2: I love hearing it all right now, people who are
Speaker 2: against the idea of a convention of States, And I
Speaker 2: think you've already explained a way why this is not
Speaker 2: a major concern, because so many states have to approve,
Speaker 2: like ratifying an amendment to the Constitution that acts as
Speaker 2: a stop you know, a speed bumper, a stopgut measure
Speaker 2: to avoid some terrible consequences. But some people are worried about,
Speaker 2: you know, the so called runaway convention, and oh my god,
Speaker 2: if we convene a convention of States, all these left
Speaker 2: wing liberal nutcases are going to you know, enshrine DEI
Speaker 2: as an amendment to the Constitution.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 6: Well, I mean the first thing I've say is we
Speaker 6: have to know where our arguments come from. And that
Speaker 6: argument was.
Speaker 23: Created by the radical left in America in the nineteen
Speaker 23: seventies and nineteen eighties, who was led by Chief Justice Berger,
Speaker 23: who's the guy that gave us Row versus Wade, And
Speaker 23: he was being asked what he thought of a convention
Speaker 23: to overturn Roe versus Wade, and so of course he said, oh, well,
Speaker 23: that's a terrible idea, and he made up this thing
Speaker 23: which we'd never talked about before in American history, of
Speaker 23: the idea of a runaway convention, where a convention could
Speaker 23: propose all kinds of horrible things. Important to remember, a
Speaker 23: supermajority of states have to agree in advance to what
Speaker 23: the convention's about. Take thirty four states degree in advance
Speaker 23: what the limitations on conventions are. And I talked about
Speaker 23: what the ones we're proposing are, so nothing bad can
Speaker 23: happen under that. And then the ultimate stop gap in
Speaker 23: the end is anything that comes out of convention is
Speaker 23: just a suggestion. Literally, the convention has no power. All
Speaker 23: they can do is discuss and suggest, and then it
Speaker 23: takes thirty eight states to ratify. And Brian, here's a
Speaker 23: thought experiment for you. I've given this to literally millions
Speaker 23: of people. I give out my personal email address, which
Speaker 23: is Mmeckler at coosaction dot com, and say, if you're
Speaker 23: worried about this, and you're like me as conservative libertarian,
Speaker 23: give me the the amendment that you're worried about, and
Speaker 23: then list the thirty eight states that we're ratifying. And
Speaker 23: I can tell you that in doing this for eleven
Speaker 23: plus years, I've not received an.
Speaker 2: Email about it that speaks volumes mark it really does.
Speaker 2: You haven't at this for a long time, and Convention
Speaker 2: the States has been discussed for a long time, and
Speaker 2: for what I understand, the concept is really kind of
Speaker 2: it shares bipartisan support. Now, I mean, if you've got
Speaker 2: a majority of Democrats supporting it, which apparently there are,
Speaker 2: and sixty two percent of independence supporting it, and or
Speaker 2: seventy five percent of Republicans supporting it, why haven't more
Speaker 2: states just approved the concept, Ohio being one of them.
Speaker 2: They aren't marked in green on your map yet.
Speaker 23: Yeah, you know it's Ohio's been really interesting to me
Speaker 23: and a little bit frustrating. We have I would say,
Speaker 23: I'm very comfortable we have majority support in both houses,
Speaker 23: and it's really been slowed down a little bit on
Speaker 23: our side by leadership and a guy that I likes
Speaker 23: a lot, Matt Huffman, who I think has been good
Speaker 23: for the state. But and he is a big advocate
Speaker 23: of the idea of a Convention of States, but he's
Speaker 23: just been slow to allow it through the legislature. And Franklin,
Speaker 23: Ohio you know, Huffman is the guy who has the
Speaker 23: power in the legislature, and so he's just been.
Speaker 6: Slow to go.
Speaker 9: And I know him well.
Speaker 23: And I'm hoping this here that we have the support
Speaker 23: of leadership in both houses. I think we're going to
Speaker 23: and I think we're going to get it done in Ohio.
Speaker 2: This here, well, it seems to be that, you know,
Speaker 2: in the last several days the Trump administration, I mean
Speaker 2: they sprinted as soon as he was done getting sworn in.
Speaker 2: I mean, I just cannot just comprehend the flory of
Speaker 2: activity and the amount of effort and work that Trump
Speaker 2: has been able to accomplish. But I'm given large credit
Speaker 2: to Elon Musk for exposing how much waste there is
Speaker 2: in government held a USA Department and some of the
Speaker 2: programs and stupid, stupid things we spent forty billion dollars
Speaker 2: on that has to run contrary to the values of
Speaker 2: almost every American. You know, the idea of you know,
Speaker 2: funding gain of function research in the Wuhan Institute of
Speaker 2: Virology alone, they've literally killed millions of people we paid
Speaker 2: for that. What elected officials said that was a good idea? Oh,
Speaker 2: that's right, not one. So the revelation of the waste,
Speaker 2: the revelation of all of this just absolute waste a
Speaker 2: tax payer dollars and the fact that we spend trillions
Speaker 2: of dollars more than they take in every year. I
Speaker 2: mean that crosses political lines. It's indefensible.
Speaker 6: So it is.
Speaker 23: And like you said, I mean across party lines. People
Speaker 23: are in supported this because it's just common sense. I mean,
Speaker 23: first of all, most people don't know about it, but
Speaker 23: get started with when they do, and when you say, hey,
Speaker 23: what we would like to do is keep these people
Speaker 23: from being in DC for forty years. What we'd like
Speaker 23: to do is make them balance their budgets, balance their
Speaker 23: checkbooks like every human has to do, and frankly, almost
Speaker 23: every state has to do.
Speaker 6: And we want to take some power away from DC
Speaker 6: and give.
Speaker 23: It back to the states. You can see why that's nonpartisan.
Speaker 23: For example, California would get more power, New York would
Speaker 23: get more power, Illinois would get more power. States that
Speaker 23: are not conservatives, not just a conservative thing. It just
Speaker 23: takes power away from the centralizers.
Speaker 6: In DC and frankly, the tyrants in DC and gives
Speaker 6: it back to the people.
Speaker 2: Well, it also seems with the Trump administration that your
Speaker 2: idea of a Convention of States is probably going to
Speaker 2: get even more widespread support because apparently Donald Trump's has
Speaker 2: warmed up to the idea.
Speaker 23: Yeah, you know, it's been really interesting. I couldn't have
Speaker 23: predicted this, No way I could have known. But we
Speaker 23: put out a fourth quarter newsletter and there's a picture
Speaker 23: on the cover which kind of blew me away. If
Speaker 23: you look at the Trump administration right now, and you
Speaker 23: look at who is in the Trump administration that has
Speaker 23: expressed public support for Convention of States, you.
Speaker 6: Could start with jd.
Speaker 23: Vance supported us when he was running for Senator. You
Speaker 23: got Mike Huckabee, who's going to be our ambassador at
Speaker 23: Israel as one of.
Speaker 6: Our early supporters.
Speaker 23: Pete Hegseth is a very close friend of big supporter
Speaker 23: now a new sect death the incoming Sectioncretary of Agriculture,
Speaker 23: Briock Rawlins is a big supporter of ours. Caroline Levitt,
Speaker 23: who's the star of the hour, I would say, as
Speaker 23: the new Press Secretary, was the supporter of ours when
Speaker 23: she was running for the House of Representatives from New Hampshire.
Speaker 23: So we've just got a whole bunch of people in
Speaker 23: the admin around Trump and we know Trump is looking
Speaker 23: at long term legacy play and that's important. I love
Speaker 23: that he doesn't have another term, so what's he going
Speaker 23: to do to make things permanent? And a lot of
Speaker 23: stuff that he's doing right now can be reversed by
Speaker 23: subsequent administration unless we ensconce them and constitutional amendments. So
Speaker 23: we do know there's been discussions inside the inner circle
Speaker 23: in the White House about a Convention of States and
Speaker 23: I'm looking forward to Trump's support.
Speaker 2: Well, and apparently you have some measure of because he
Speaker 2: actually reposted on his truth social media post Mark Levin's
Speaker 2: conversation about the Convention of States and Mark Levin is
Speaker 2: a huge fan of the concept.
Speaker 6: Yeah, you know, I was pretty excited to see that.
Speaker 6: That's kind of out of the blue.
Speaker 23: We had no idea that's coming, and so Trump posted
Speaker 23: this and right in the Mark's talking about his support
Speaker 23: for convention of state. So that's why we know what's
Speaker 23: going on in the inner circles of the White House.
Speaker 23: We also if you look at my ex account right
Speaker 23: now just at Mark mecro, you'll see we've actually got
Speaker 23: billboards up in the Austin, Texas area near the gigafactory
Speaker 23: with Elon musk on them with a chainsaw saying want
Speaker 23: to cut government permanently, Elon, and so we're hoping to
Speaker 23: get Elon on board as well. The Vekramswami was already
Speaker 23: on board. So I think we're getting very close to
Speaker 23: the point where we'll see the administration in support openly.
Speaker 2: So how many more states we need? I see that
Speaker 2: on your map that you have highlighted in blue that
Speaker 2: they have active legislation on this issue, you know, Nevada
Speaker 2: and Montana and elsewhere. Of course Ohio isn't marked on that,
Speaker 2: but maybe that that'll change. But how many more states
Speaker 2: total do we need to sign on to the concept?
Speaker 6: Just fifteen to go.
Speaker 23: We're well past the halfway mark, and I expect we're
Speaker 23: going to see a bunch more come on this year.
Speaker 6: We've got a bunch of states tending Iowa, Idaho, Montana, Wyoming, Ohio.
Speaker 23: While it's not on the map yet, it will get
Speaker 23: filed this year and we expect to be moving forward
Speaker 23: in Ohio. So we've got fifteen to go and we
Speaker 23: are making a big push right now.
Speaker 2: Okay, what can my listeners do to learn more about
Speaker 2: the specifics of this and perhaps help push it through.
Speaker 2: For example, here in Ohio.
Speaker 6: Go to Convention of States dot com.
Speaker 23: Get signed up there, click on sign the petition that
Speaker 23: will allow them to send a notice to your legislators
Speaker 23: that you're in support, and then call your legislators. This
Speaker 23: is the most important thing. Get involved and let them
Speaker 23: know to support this. So you do that, call your senator,
Speaker 23: call your representatives, and then click on the take action
Speaker 23: tab on the website and get signed up as a
Speaker 23: volunteer and getting gates.
Speaker 2: All right, just add commerce clause to the list.
Speaker 6: Mark okay, it's at the top of my list, and
Speaker 6: I promise.
Speaker 2: Mark Meckler Convention the state's president. Check them out online,
Speaker 2: get signed up, and send him an email if you
Speaker 2: have an issue about it. Mmeckler at coosaction dot com.
Speaker 2: Keep up the great work, Marcus, and a pleasure having
Speaker 2: on the program to learn the specifics on this and
Speaker 2: I look forward hopefully to talk with you again as
Speaker 2: we get closer and closer to the concept.
Speaker 6: Absolutely, thanks Bryan, God bless.
Speaker 2: My pleasure and God bless you. Eight twenty one right

Speaker 2: A twenty nine think about KRC the talk days and
Speaker 2: it's Thursday's time for iheartmediaviation next Bird Jay Ratliff love
Speaker 2: having Jar on the program. He's like wrapping up the
Speaker 2: Thursday morning shows, usually on a lighthearted note, although of
Speaker 2: late we've had some pretty bad aviation news. But real quick,
Speaker 2: before we get to Jay, I want a special shout
Speaker 2: out thank you to not only everybody who went to
Speaker 2: Listener Lunch yesterday had a fantastic time, but if you
Speaker 2: didn't get a chance to listen Every Wednesday at seven
Speaker 2: oh five we hear from Jack Atherton. He's a brilliant,
Speaker 2: brilliant guy, great commentator. Jack in his beautiful better half
Speaker 2: Ainsley made it to lunch yesterday and that was quite
Speaker 2: a trip for them. Shout out to Jack and Ainsley.
Speaker 2: Great CNISA. I had quite a few listeners chime in
Speaker 2: to me and letting me know that the how pleased
Speaker 2: they were to meet you. One of my fraternity brothers, Meggie.
Speaker 2: They said you are two of the nicest people he's
Speaker 2: ever met, and I can only agree with that all
Speaker 2: day long. One of the other nicest people ever meet,
Speaker 2: Jay Ratliff, Thanks for a biting by my words there
Speaker 2: and welcome back to the Morning show. It's always my
Speaker 2: pleasure to have you on the show.
Speaker 15: Well, Jack and I have teamed up for some things
Speaker 15: over the years, so believe me, anytime you want to
Speaker 15: brag on Heat and his lovely wife, by all means
Speaker 15: do so.
Speaker 2: They are truly fantastic folks. All right, what's the latest?
Speaker 2: We have two obviously terrible aviation incidents to talk about.
Speaker 2: What's the latest on the DC A plane running into
Speaker 2: the helicopter, or as the case may be, the helicapter
Speaker 2: running into the plane, which seems to be what's happening.
Speaker 2: The suggestion I've read is that the helicopter was flying
Speaker 2: at too high of an altitude.
Speaker 15: It was, yeah, And the initial focus for the National
Speaker 15: Transportation Safety Board was to recover the wreckage of the
Speaker 15: down to airliner first and then go after retrieving the helicopter.
Speaker 15: And that's what they're in the process of doing now.
Speaker 15: Because they were two separate spots where they came down,
Speaker 15: and the priority was the airliner. They've been able to
Speaker 15: take care of that. They've got the black boxes, they'll
Speaker 15: be able to determine some and a little disappointed that
Speaker 15: the black Hawk did not have a black box type
Speaker 15: of component that would allow them to listen to the
Speaker 15: conversations that were ongoing, and the Yeah, some black Hawks
Speaker 15: have it, and I was hopeful that this was the case,
Speaker 15: but the latest word that we had, and of course, Brian,
Speaker 15: it may change if my information is wrong, but it
Speaker 15: does not have that capability, which means that they're going
Speaker 15: to the investigators are going to have to rely on
Speaker 15: the back and forth, the time stamps, the different types
Speaker 15: of things that they've got from a data standpoint to
Speaker 15: try to figure out why that aircraft was where it
Speaker 15: was supposed to be or where it was. Because you're right,
Speaker 15: when the crash first took place and I heard the altitude,
Speaker 15: I thought they can't be right because they've got that
Speaker 15: ceiling of two hundred feet and I can't see any
Speaker 15: reason why any helicopter crew would go above that, knowing
Speaker 15: that the commercial lanes that are there, especially going in
Speaker 15: and had a runway three to three there.
Speaker 9: So, yeah, the investigation continues there.
Speaker 15: And we did also find out that the NTSB told
Speaker 15: us that the jetliner did try to elevate at the
Speaker 15: last moment, apparently when they first saw the helicopter, and
Speaker 15: of course at that point in time, it was simply
Speaker 15: too late for them to do anything.
Speaker 2: Brian.
Speaker 15: Just the weirdest thing is when you look at some
Speaker 15: of these different videos, it's not like the helicopter came
Speaker 15: up from underneath and the collision took place. They were
Speaker 15: not pointed at each other, but I mean they almost
Speaker 15: were looking at each other as they were going in,
Speaker 15: making you think, what the world was the flight crew
Speaker 15: of the helicopter not.
Speaker 9: Looking at exactly to see it because it just it was.
Speaker 2: Like a dark being thrown in a dark board. It
Speaker 2: was dead on collision. I mean, you couldn't if you
Speaker 2: wanted to, You couldn't hit it more directly.
Speaker 15: If this were a terrorist attack, that's exactly you know,
Speaker 15: I think out would look. Not that I'm suggesting in
Speaker 15: any way that's this, but it's the crew's attention or
Speaker 15: whatever was elsewhere. And again we don't know if there
Speaker 15: was a mechanical situation that was that the crew was
Speaker 15: battling at the time that might have taken their attention
Speaker 15: away from some of the critical moments of flight.
Speaker 9: There what we just don't know.
Speaker 15: I do know that my confidence in the National Transportation
Speaker 15: Safety board is unbelievably high, and if there's a group
Speaker 15: of men and women, they're going to be able to
Speaker 15: find out exactly what happened and give to the Federal
Speaker 15: Aviation Administration a list of recommendations on how we can
Speaker 15: make aviation safer.
Speaker 9: They're going to be the ones that do it.
Speaker 15: But, as I've told you before, my biggest fear is
Speaker 15: we're going to discover that the accident was easily.
Speaker 2: And what you're suggesting is the negligence on the part
Speaker 2: of the helicopter Violet.
Speaker 15: Yeah, and again it's it's an incredibly early statement to make,
Speaker 15: but based on the evidence as we're seeing it now,
Speaker 15: I mean, it's obvious that the RJ was where it
Speaker 15: was supposed to be, the American exactly where they were
Speaker 15: supposed to. We also can say that the helicopter crew
Speaker 15: was not where they were supposed to. Now, again, that
Speaker 15: may be negligence, it may be mechanical, it may be
Speaker 15: again the medical episode involving one of the pilots that
Speaker 15: caused that altitude deviation to take place, we don't know.
Speaker 15: But far too often in the history of aviation, when
Speaker 15: you look at the decades and decades of as accidents
Speaker 15: near accidents, the human element tends to come into play,
Speaker 15: and almost all of them. It may not be the cause,
Speaker 15: but it's a contributing cause many many times. And that's
Speaker 15: why a lot of these well meaning individuals, we'll say, Jay,
Speaker 15: that's why we need to have airplanes with no pilots,
Speaker 15: because then we can avoid these mistakes from being made
Speaker 15: and make aviation safer. And of course I don't agree
Speaker 15: with that at all, but it is sad that there's
Speaker 15: always that human element that seems to be there, which
Speaker 15: is why, you know, you've always heard me say before
Speaker 15: this that we were enjoying the safest ere ever of
Speaker 15: commercial jet travel, but we had to be incredibly vigilant
Speaker 15: to make sure that that continued to be the case,
Speaker 15: because we get sloppy. Human nature is just that we
Speaker 15: get complacent, we get a little sloppy, and as a result,
Speaker 15: mistakes can take place. And you know, we've already seen
Speaker 15: the FAA shut down that corridor for the helicopter traffic
Speaker 15: there at the Regae National Airport, which is good and
Speaker 15: that'll probably.
Speaker 9: Be permanent, but I suspect that we're going to also see.
Speaker 15: Some other recommendations that are going to be made. And
Speaker 15: then of course, you know, one of the things that
Speaker 15: just drives me out of my mind is that the
Speaker 15: TSB may give the FAA fifteen different points, and the
Speaker 15: FAA may implement one, maybe two. It's not a stamp
Speaker 15: approval as you do all of them. Because many times
Speaker 15: the airline industry and their lobbying group and others can
Speaker 15: apply a little pressure saying we don't want to do this, this,
Speaker 15: and this because it would cost too much money, and
Speaker 15: then it would cause a raise, We would have to
Speaker 15: raise fares, and then that would be really bad for
Speaker 15: the consumers. Let's not do that.
Speaker 9: That kind of garbage.
Speaker 15: And where safety then becomes a you know, a negotiating
Speaker 15: type of thing, it's.
Speaker 9: Just, oh, so well, you know, that's where we are
Speaker 9: in as far as the d d C craft, and.
Speaker 2: We'll get to the Philly crash here when we come back.
Speaker 2: But the bottom line is, I just can't for the
Speaker 2: life we figure out how in the hell it is
Speaker 2: that it was in any way, shape or form the
Speaker 2: right thing to do to allow a military helicopter to
Speaker 2: fly right there indirect on a final approach path.
Speaker 8: Is there really a need to do that?
Speaker 2: You can't just deviate a mile right or left and
Speaker 2: go around that congested area. Whatever.
Speaker 9: Well, we keep most we keep most of them.
Speaker 15: They keep them within the confines of the river, if
Speaker 15: you will, going up and down through there. So that's
Speaker 15: their corridor. And I mean there's nothing but military aircraft
Speaker 15: up there. They're everywhere, and there's always been this this
Speaker 15: you know, combination, this influx of both commercial and military aircraft.
Speaker 15: And normally, even though there's occasionally where you have one
Speaker 15: that'll have to deviate and go around or you know,
Speaker 15: approach differently or cancel of takeoff, it happens, but that
Speaker 15: happens at every airport. Most of the time, this operates
Speaker 15: exactly as it's supposed to. In this case, it didn't,
Speaker 15: and it with horrific.
Speaker 2: Consequences, absolutely horrific, speaking horrific, the Philly crash, we'll talk
Speaker 2: about that, plus a couple got suit by an airline
Speaker 2: costs a lot of money. We'll also talk about Elon
Speaker 2: Musk ready to make some technical upgrades of air traffic
Speaker 2: control much needed, apparently more with Jay Ratliffe coming up next,
Speaker 2: Don't Go Away.
Speaker 12: Fifty five KRC run a business and not thinking about it.
Speaker 2: Continuing our conversation every Thursday for a few segments with
Speaker 2: Jay Rattler, which I truly appreciate any my listeners enjoy
Speaker 2: hearing from you as well. Jay, moving away from the
Speaker 2: DC crash over to Philly crash. The one thing I
Speaker 2: heard it was suggested is that there was a weight
Speaker 2: shift which caused the plane to stall. Any further developments
Speaker 2: beyond that speculation that was initially raised.
Speaker 15: Now that was that's still pretty much something that's being
Speaker 15: looked at as probable. And I think the reason that
Speaker 15: we so many of us went in that direction early
Speaker 15: was the video of that aircraft coming out of the sky.
Speaker 15: If that airplane takes off, loses its engines, it becomes
Speaker 15: a glider. So at fifteen hundred feet you've got x
Speaker 15: amount of distance before that airplane has to come down.
Speaker 9: But it's a controlled descent.
Speaker 15: This airplane just fell out of the sky, which means
Speaker 15: either structurally something came off the aircraft disrupting the lift
Speaker 15: and down it came with as not having an ability
Speaker 15: to control it, or something happened to that center of
Speaker 15: gravity that shifted at a critical moment. And of course
Speaker 15: weight and balance being everything on an aircraft. If you've
Speaker 15: got an airplane at that critical moment that's taking off,
Speaker 15: and you've got a sudden and unexpected shift of gravity
Speaker 15: in that aircraft. What could take place is it could
Speaker 15: actually cause the airplane to change its inclination to the
Speaker 15: air over the wing then gets disrupted. The lift is
Speaker 15: no longer there, and the airplane goes into a stall.
Speaker 2: It just falls like it falls like a dead weight
Speaker 2: out of the sky. Then it does. It does.
Speaker 15: And if you were you know, altitude twenty thirty thousand feet,
Speaker 15: no problem. You just point the nose down, you build
Speaker 15: up the speed, and the airflow over the wings resumed,
Speaker 15: lift is restored, and off you go. But if you're
Speaker 15: fifteen hundred feet Brian, there's nothing you can do. And
Speaker 15: some of the most terrific if you if you YouTube searched,
Speaker 15: there's a seven forty seven the cargo plane that was
Speaker 15: taking off that had that exact same thing happened, and
Speaker 15: it's it's a horrific video to watch. But the airplane
Speaker 15: takes off and it has that shift of gravity where
Speaker 15: the cargo came loose, and you can see the moment
Speaker 15: at a very low altitude that that aircraft the crew
Speaker 15: lost complete control and that airplane just falls right out
Speaker 15: of the sky. But it is, it's that's why everything
Speaker 15: is strapped down. Everything is it just it's there's just
Speaker 15: no room for.
Speaker 2: Air No, and you know what you're you're doing. You
Speaker 2: are also pointing out the importance of the folks that
Speaker 2: load the plane, you know, the common laborer who are
Speaker 2: putting things in the cargo bay of the plane. They
Speaker 2: are critical the life saving saving lives on that, whether
Speaker 2: it's the crew or the entire U list of passengers.
Speaker 2: That it's just an amazing reality that a shifting weight
Speaker 2: in the bottom of the airplane could just make it
Speaker 2: drop like a rock.
Speaker 15: If it's significant in size, yes, if you know, if
Speaker 15: you've got six bags rolling around, that's not gonna be
Speaker 15: an issue. But if you've got something substantial weight that
Speaker 15: shifts quickly from one side to the next, yeah, it's
Speaker 15: going to be something that could just cast some big
Speaker 15: time problems for the flight crew. And sadly, if it's
Speaker 15: a little altitude, there's nothing that they can do about it.
Speaker 9: And that crew knew that there was nothing they could
Speaker 9: do about it.
Speaker 15: And I tell you it's just when you look at
Speaker 15: you know, aviation and things that's one of the reasons
Speaker 15: that weight and balance is so critical, where everything is
Speaker 15: measured and weighed so that we know weight wise, how
Speaker 15: much fuel, how much cargo, which part of the aircraft
Speaker 15: it's in, how many passengers are. And that's why sometimes
Speaker 15: when you are on a flight that maybe isn't full,
Speaker 15: you'll have the pass the flight tends come back and say, hey,
Speaker 15: we need you six people to move to the back
Speaker 15: of the airplane, or we need you to come over here.
Speaker 15: And what they're doing is at the pilot's instruction, distributing
Speaker 15: that weight a little bit better throughout the cabin so
Speaker 15: that it's going to make it easier for the crew
Speaker 15: to maintain control the flight. So yeah, if you're ever
Speaker 15: asked to move, please please don't throw a fifth Please
Speaker 15: please don't throw f You know.
Speaker 2: What, you're doing absolutely nothing today to make me want
Speaker 2: to fly. I know this isn't you and you say
Speaker 2: flight it's all safe and compared to being in a
Speaker 2: car and all that.
Speaker 9: I get it.
Speaker 2: I know the statistics, but jeez, little Louise, the smallest like.
Speaker 15: Going outside and getting struck by lightning twice in the
Speaker 15: same day, twice in the same day, So I mean
Speaker 15: that's you know, I will go out and get on
Speaker 15: an airplane. I'll put my kids, my grandkids, my wife,
Speaker 15: my mom. I mean, without hesitation. But when I recognize
Speaker 15: here in the United States, but we do it better
Speaker 15: than anybody on the planet, and there's a lot of
Speaker 15: things we can do better, and we will, but you know,
Speaker 15: it's I'm just I'm just thrilled that we have this
Speaker 15: dedication to safety as we have here in the United States,
Speaker 15: because the mechanics, the pilots, the training, the way the
Speaker 15: aircraft are built to the NTSB, even the FAA oversight.
Speaker 15: You know, many times I'll give them the credit that
Speaker 15: they deserve. It's a large group of people that do
Speaker 15: an incredible job daily to keep all of us safe.
Speaker 15: And you know, when there's a breakdown, it can be costly,
Speaker 15: and it's one of the reasons you've just got to
Speaker 15: stay super vigilant.
Speaker 2: No question about can we stick around? Will you pause
Speaker 2: for a moment and come back with me to talk
Speaker 2: about these other two We got two more cop topics
Speaker 2: we talk about, plus a hub delay update from Jay
Speaker 2: Ratlift Stick around.
Speaker 12: It's eight forty six fifty five KRC.
Speaker 2: There are two types of pain in the world one
Speaker 2: more time with the ten and nine weather, we got
Speaker 2: clouds until around one o'clock when we get the sun
Speaker 2: back fifty five for the high today, clouds o every
Speaker 2: night thirty tomorrow mostly sunny. Sky's forty two thirty three
Speaker 2: every night with clouds and rain in the daytime. On Saturday,
Speaker 2: high in the mid fifties, we're closing out of forty
Speaker 2: four degrees and one more time for traffic from the
Speaker 2: U see Triumphant Center.
Speaker 11: Heart disease is the leading cause of death in the US.
Speaker 11: If you're at risk, trust the experts that you see
Speaker 11: health for innovative and personalized hardcare.
Speaker 1: Expect more at uc help dot com. They've opened up
Speaker 1: the right lane.
Speaker 11: On westbound for Washington Way that's helping traffic off of
Speaker 11: seventy one into downtown. Looks like things are still blocked
Speaker 11: off on inbound Columbia Parkway. At Third Street southbound seventy
Speaker 11: five there's a wreckor aser Charles Center by. It's packing
Speaker 11: traffic to seventy four chut Kingbramon fifty five k S
Speaker 11: the talk station.
Speaker 2: Hey fifty to fifty five KRCD talk station Happy Thursday
Speaker 2: tune and tomorrow at six thirty am with Tech Friday's
Speaker 2: Dave Hatter. In the meantime, one more time with I
Speaker 2: Heard Me The Aviation Next for Jay Ratliffe ninety thousand dollars.
Speaker 2: What what happened, Well, we had.
Speaker 15: A couple on a Alvianca flight and they got to fights,
Speaker 15: this couple and as a result, the man throws the
Speaker 15: phone at his wife and it hits the wall and
Speaker 15: overheats and starts to catch fire. So now the crew
Speaker 15: has to decide to go back and land because of
Speaker 15: the smoldering fire that they have on board the aircraft. Well,
Speaker 15: the aircraft is too heavy to land. It's not yet
Speaker 15: a critical situation, so they decide to burn off the
Speaker 15: fuel for three hours and then land the airplane so
Speaker 15: that a the passengers that were disruptive can be removed,
Speaker 15: the damage to the inside of the aircraft can be repaired,
Speaker 15: and then they can take care of the rest of
Speaker 15: the customers. The airline decided to sue this couple for
Speaker 15: ninety thousand dollars in part for the damage to the
Speaker 15: aircraft the fuel that they had to expend trying to
Speaker 15: land after the event took place. Because you can land
Speaker 15: too heavy and you don't want to do that if
Speaker 15: you don't have to, unless it's a dire emergency situation.
Speaker 9: And yeah, the thought processes.
Speaker 15: If you find these individuals enough, Brian, maybe it'll help
Speaker 15: future behavior.
Speaker 9: I doubt it, but you know, at least you hope
Speaker 9: that's going to be the case.
Speaker 2: Yeah, no question about it. Cautionary tale, right.
Speaker 15: Get the word you know, I told you these are
Speaker 15: the people that you put their their pictures in the
Speaker 15: in the TSA area. Anytime that you get that long
Speaker 15: screening line where every so often their picture pops up
Speaker 15: with the dollar.
Speaker 9: Amount underneath they were fined exactly.
Speaker 15: It reminds people constantly, and you know that there are consequences,
Speaker 15: and we're seeing more airlines do that, especially on diverted flights,
Speaker 15: and I'm glad to see it because you're inconveniencing everybody
Speaker 15: on that airplane and everybody that's waiting on that airplane
Speaker 15: at the next stop that's going to be canceled.
Speaker 9: As well.
Speaker 2: The fact that people are so oblivious to the concerns
Speaker 2: and and and the needs of other people, it's just
Speaker 2: it's obviously a growing phenomenon. People are very very selfish
Speaker 2: and don't care about other people, all right, Elon musk
Speaker 2: is he going to fix it? We had a real
Speaker 2: problem with air traffic controls, shortage of them. That's one
Speaker 2: of the things that they said was could have been
Speaker 2: a problem in DC. But I saw the other day.
Speaker 2: I guess two aircraft ran into each other on the
Speaker 2: runway on Wednesday, a Japanese airliner and I guess some
Speaker 2: delta flight. But that's an air traffic control issue, I
Speaker 2: would imagine, So what's going on and what do we
Speaker 2: need to fix? Jay?
Speaker 15: Yeah, on that way was a delta flight was being deced.
Speaker 15: You know, the japan airlines playing taxing by and think
Speaker 15: nailed it. Pretty easy to tell who's at fault there, ye,
Speaker 15: because only one of the two airplanes were moving. But
Speaker 15: you know, Elon musk Is is a very it kind
Speaker 15: of guy, and I would pay I would have paid
Speaker 15: money to have walked with him as he's been given
Speaker 15: the tour of the Federal Aviation Administration. Air traffic control
Speaker 15: says where they're relying on some of this equipment and
Speaker 15: technology that it goes back seventy years.
Speaker 2: They're still using a giant floppy discs.
Speaker 9: I heard, Well, they are.
Speaker 15: There's so many things that have to be upgraded, and
Speaker 15: it would be like, I don't know, I can't even
Speaker 15: think of the comparison, but for somebody like him, and
Speaker 15: even President Trump and others that are saying, look, this
Speaker 15: is so far past being done here, we've got to
Speaker 15: get this fixed. And other administrations have made a similar assessment,
Speaker 15: but nothing ever seems to get done. And one of
Speaker 15: the frustrations of air traffic control is that these controllers
Speaker 15: have to work with a lot of this antiquated equipment.
Speaker 15: And I'll say that from a retention standpoint, it makes
Speaker 15: their job as controllers more stressful, harder to do. And
Speaker 15: you want to do everything you can to keep these
Speaker 15: men and women sticking around for a while. Let's give
Speaker 15: them state of the art equipment to you, so let's
Speaker 15: make their job easier. Let's let's make aviation safer so
Speaker 15: that we can do everything that we want to do.
Speaker 15: As far as protecting everybody who flies. There's no way
Speaker 15: that you can have two two and a half million
Speaker 15: people fly every day, and I consider that a priority.
Speaker 15: But Brian, the problem has been over the last several decades,
Speaker 15: we found a way to make it work so in
Speaker 15: the eyes of the people that spend money in Washington, DC.
Speaker 15: Why spend hundreds and hundreds of millions of dollars on
Speaker 15: this and then a like number here and hundreds of
Speaker 15: million because it's working now, so we can use that
Speaker 15: money elsewhere, and they do. And it's really unfortunate because
Speaker 15: we're so far behind. It's going to take a administration
Speaker 15: or two to get us caught up. But hopefully Trump
Speaker 15: can get us pointed in the right direction.
Speaker 2: Well, one can only hope. And thinking of a day hatter,
Speaker 2: I hope they keep security in mind. If they're upgrading
Speaker 2: the air traffic control system by way of keeping it
Speaker 2: from being able to be hacked.
Speaker 15: All right, Well, that that that for sure. But I
Speaker 15: just can't wait to see the left go nuts. I mean,
Speaker 15: if he makes aviation safer, you know they're going to
Speaker 15: complain and it's like it's just a lucy But that's
Speaker 15: what's how dare you make it safer for me to fly?
Speaker 9: I'm so glad I didn't vote for you. Yeah, it's
Speaker 9: just it's ridiculous.
Speaker 2: It is absolutely ridiculous. All right, let's conclude, as we
Speaker 2: always do. Hub delays.
Speaker 9: What's it like out there to be a hair only
Speaker 9: everything to the Northeast. I mean it's nuts.
Speaker 15: We've got ice, we've got wind, we've got snow, limited visibility,
Speaker 15: we've got everything from Charlotte towards the northeast. New York, Philadelphia,
Speaker 15: d C, Boston getting absolutely hammered today. Some canceled flights,
Speaker 15: a lot of delayed flights. It's gonna be with us
Speaker 15: the entire day. Hopefully better by tomorrow. But if you're
Speaker 15: flying tomorrow morning, some of the originating flights may not
Speaker 15: make it to where you need to be, So tomorrow
Speaker 15: morning flights are going to be impacted as well. So
Speaker 15: for the next twenty four to thirty six hours, this
Speaker 15: storm going through the Northeast is really gonna hammer operations
Speaker 15: across the country. So if you're headed towards the Northeast,
Speaker 15: just take an extra dissipation. It's gonna be a slow go.
Speaker 2: Day, Ratliff, I enjoy the conversation every week. I can't
Speaker 2: thank you know for spending time with my listeners and me.
Speaker 2: God bless you, sir and your better half. We'll talk

Speaker 9: Looking forward to it.
Speaker 15: In one of these days, Lord Willing, I'm anxious to
Speaker 15: join you on one of those luncheons when I can.
Speaker 15: It's it's hard for me with my training to do it,
Speaker 15: but believe me, brother, I'm going to work hard to
Speaker 15: make that happen.
Speaker 2: I can't wait, and I'll just keep my fingers crossed.
Speaker 2: That day happened sooner rather than later. But anytime is
Speaker 2: a great time. Thank you, brother. We'll talk again next Thursday,
Speaker 2: eight fifty six. Folks, you didn't get a chance to
Speaker 2: listen down with the New Americans for Prosperity in the
