WEBVTT 1 00:00:01.800 --> 00:00:04.839 You are twenty twenty four election headquarters. Wow, she's got 2 00:00:04.839 --> 00:00:08.279 a lot of accents. Fifty five KRC the talk station 3 00:00:17.920 --> 00:00:18.920 five o five. 4 00:00:20.600 --> 00:00:28.519 At fifty five KRC, the talk station. Happy Monday. 5 00:00:28.800 --> 00:00:39.600 Some say still is a vacation. 6 00:00:40.359 --> 00:00:43.039 And that's the way the news going. 7 00:00:43.079 --> 00:00:45.840 Indeed, it is coming up on five oh six, that 8 00:00:46.039 --> 00:00:48.039 be Monday too. You folks up. You had a wonderful weekend, 9 00:00:48.520 --> 00:00:50.119 and I think you like calling him this morning. I'd 10 00:00:50.119 --> 00:00:52.560 love to hear from you as always five one, three, seven, four, nine, 11 00:00:52.600 --> 00:00:55.600 fifty two three talk. Go with town five fifty on 12 00:00:55.640 --> 00:00:58.000 AT and T phones and get over to fifty five 13 00:00:58.039 --> 00:00:59.759 KRC dot com. My wife read about a third of 14 00:00:59.759 --> 00:01:02.880 the book The White Privilege Album. I interviewed the AJ Rice, 15 00:01:02.920 --> 00:01:05.640 the author of that, on Friday. Pretty funny. You can 16 00:01:05.680 --> 00:01:07.239 get a copy of that right there, along with the 17 00:01:07.920 --> 00:01:10.920 David Chudwin's book The Magical Decade nineteen sixty five to 18 00:01:10.959 --> 00:01:14.560 seventy five. And a discussion, actually a heated debate, just 19 00:01:14.560 --> 00:01:17.159 trying to get guy focus on issues Issue one, say, 20 00:01:17.239 --> 00:01:21.280 voh no, the gentleman supports Issue one here in Ohio. 21 00:01:21.439 --> 00:01:23.519 I'm not quite sure it got much information out of them, 22 00:01:23.519 --> 00:01:27.120 but it is a convoluted, really wild, weird way of 23 00:01:27.239 --> 00:01:30.519 changing the germandering situation. No one argues that the gerremanning, 24 00:01:30.760 --> 00:01:34.519 that geremannic is not a problem, but this is not 25 00:01:34.640 --> 00:01:36.959 the way to fix it. And as you're looking through 26 00:01:36.959 --> 00:01:40.280 that and really important to me, and it came out 27 00:01:40.319 --> 00:01:42.319 at least in partnering the discussion I had. You know, 28 00:01:42.359 --> 00:01:44.040 what does it mean when they say they're going to 29 00:01:44.079 --> 00:01:47.599 have an even number of Democrats and Republicans in independence 30 00:01:47.799 --> 00:01:50.319 at least somewhere along the way in this convoluted process. 31 00:01:51.079 --> 00:01:56.560 What what does it mean when you say you're a Democrat, 32 00:01:56.599 --> 00:01:59.079 where in this political spectrum are you? When you say 33 00:01:59.079 --> 00:02:01.799 you're Republican? Where in the Republican political spectrum are you? 34 00:02:01.840 --> 00:02:04.719 And when you say you're an independent? That guy claimed 35 00:02:04.719 --> 00:02:06.760 that seventy percent of a high Winds are independent? What 36 00:02:06.760 --> 00:02:09.280 does it mean to be an independent? Does that mean 37 00:02:09.319 --> 00:02:12.639 you're distancing yourself from traditional two party system? Are you 38 00:02:12.680 --> 00:02:15.360 a communist? You're not represented in government? Are you a 39 00:02:15.360 --> 00:02:18.080 Green Party person has no representation? Are you a little 40 00:02:18.199 --> 00:02:21.479 L Libertarian or a big L libertarian? Probably not on 41 00:02:21.520 --> 00:02:23.759 the ballot. So where where does your vote get cast? 42 00:02:23.840 --> 00:02:27.599 And how does one determine who is an independent when 43 00:02:27.719 --> 00:02:30.159 considering who's going to be joining the collective that will 44 00:02:30.240 --> 00:02:32.479 ultimately make up this committee that's going to decide where 45 00:02:32.479 --> 00:02:40.599 the districts are divided. I don't know, it's it's crazy, folks. Anyway, 46 00:02:40.840 --> 00:02:44.080 take a listen for yourself and you can decide. That's 47 00:02:44.120 --> 00:02:47.319 what it's all about. Let us see here coming up 48 00:02:47.319 --> 00:02:48.919 with the fifty five here see morning show. I request 49 00:02:48.960 --> 00:02:51.199 for an additional twenty minutes from the former Vice mayor 50 00:02:51.240 --> 00:02:54.080 of the City of Cincinnati. Yes, it's Monday, typically Christopher 51 00:02:54.120 --> 00:02:55.879 Somemithim and joins a program at seven thirty. We're gonna 52 00:02:55.879 --> 00:02:58.080 get him on at seven twenty today. Ask for additional time. 53 00:02:58.360 --> 00:03:00.840 Don't know why. I'm sure he's to use it up. Well, 54 00:03:00.840 --> 00:03:03.960 he always does. And Adam Kaylor is going to be 55 00:03:04.000 --> 00:03:05.599 in studio eight oh five. We'll find out how the 56 00:03:05.680 --> 00:03:08.599 race is looking for Adam. Don't see a whole lot, 57 00:03:09.120 --> 00:03:14.800 but then again that's the commissioner. Race is real under 58 00:03:14.800 --> 00:03:18.360 the radar kind of thing going on. So Adam will 59 00:03:18.400 --> 00:03:20.599 be in studio, which I always appreciate Adam making the 60 00:03:20.599 --> 00:03:24.479 effort to come on in. What is going on here? Well, 61 00:03:24.520 --> 00:03:26.240 this is a good one. Consider my wife and I 62 00:03:26.280 --> 00:03:28.560 as we typically do over the weekend when grocery shopping, 63 00:03:30.000 --> 00:03:32.520 and I pay close attention to the price of groceries. 64 00:03:32.879 --> 00:03:37.039 What is with the cost of groceries? So a few 65 00:03:37.039 --> 00:03:40.680 items just stuck out me. It relates to this, this 66 00:03:40.680 --> 00:03:43.400 this state of the American consumer and their perception of 67 00:03:43.439 --> 00:03:52.599 where they are mostly negative middle income households. But my son, 68 00:03:52.599 --> 00:03:54.960 who is sick, asked that we get him some cranberry juice. 69 00:03:55.360 --> 00:04:03.240 A bottle of cranberry juice was eleven dollars. Oranges were 70 00:04:03.280 --> 00:04:08.039 a dollar fifty apiece. And the other thing price to 71 00:04:08.080 --> 00:04:11.280 ground beef seven dollars a pound. Just three things that 72 00:04:11.360 --> 00:04:14.000 stuck out as we're walking around, going gee you Christmas 73 00:04:14.120 --> 00:04:16.519 price groceries has gotten crazy. We had a very small 74 00:04:16.600 --> 00:04:20.600 cart of groceries. It was two hundred and five dollars, 75 00:04:21.959 --> 00:04:25.160 not a very large grocery purchase for us. That we're 76 00:04:25.199 --> 00:04:27.120 just staring at it, going, I can't believe it's a 77 00:04:27.120 --> 00:04:30.199 couple of one hundred dollars anyway. There's a new survey 78 00:04:30.279 --> 00:04:34.759 on Prime America's first security monitor reached a release support 79 00:04:34.800 --> 00:04:37.360 for the third quarter of this year, found fifty five 80 00:04:37.399 --> 00:04:40.040 percent of middle income household now rate their personal financial 81 00:04:40.079 --> 00:04:43.800 situation negatively, which is a jump of six points from 82 00:04:43.839 --> 00:04:48.560 the prior quarter alone. In terms of the view of 83 00:04:48.560 --> 00:04:52.319 the economy middle income households, it's dropped deteriorated to the 84 00:04:52.360 --> 00:04:57.680 past two to three months significantly. A majority seventy three 85 00:04:57.800 --> 00:04:59.920 percent say they have a negative view of the nation 86 00:05:00.160 --> 00:05:03.199 economic health. That's up a point from the prior reading. 87 00:05:03.399 --> 00:05:10.680 Seventy three percent wow. Thirty four percent unsure about the 88 00:05:10.680 --> 00:05:13.920 economy's direction, which is an increase of fifteen percentage points 89 00:05:13.920 --> 00:05:17.920 from just one quarter. They survey a households making between 90 00:05:17.959 --> 00:05:21.120 thirty thousand and one hundred and thirty thousand annual that's 91 00:05:21.160 --> 00:05:25.240 household income. Forty percent of upon respond in sideed inflation 92 00:05:25.360 --> 00:05:29.959 as their top worry, up eight percent from the prior 93 00:05:30.040 --> 00:05:32.360 quarterly survey. I guess they're going to the grocery store 94 00:05:32.360 --> 00:05:37.959 as well. High inflation has created severe financial pressures for 95 00:05:38.000 --> 00:05:40.199 most of US households, which are forced to pay more 96 00:05:40.360 --> 00:05:47.079 for everyday necessities like oh look, food and rent. Lower 97 00:05:47.120 --> 00:05:50.279 income houses, obviously far more impacted by this, have to 98 00:05:50.279 --> 00:05:54.160 spend more of their small paychecks or limited resources on 99 00:05:54.240 --> 00:05:58.720 just pure necessities and have less flexibility for well, non 100 00:05:58.720 --> 00:06:02.319 necessary purchases, of course, and it's noted to save money 101 00:06:03.439 --> 00:06:05.839 incapable of socking a little bit of a way to 102 00:06:06.160 --> 00:06:08.920 help gain the benefit of that compound interest and prepare 103 00:06:08.920 --> 00:06:12.560 for their own future down the road. So that is eradicated, 104 00:06:12.560 --> 00:06:14.120 which of course means they're going to be more and 105 00:06:14.120 --> 00:06:17.120 more and more reliant upon the limited amount of Social 106 00:06:17.199 --> 00:06:20.399 Security they can expect to get. Credit Card debt also 107 00:06:20.480 --> 00:06:24.319 a major concern for middle income families. Forty four percent 108 00:06:25.720 --> 00:06:27.920 say they are more worried about their credit card debt 109 00:06:27.959 --> 00:06:29.439 than they were a year ago, which is a nine 110 00:06:29.439 --> 00:06:32.040 percent jump from just one quarter ago. So you know, 111 00:06:32.079 --> 00:06:37.439 this doesn't shock me at all. Unfortunately, I'm not struggling. 112 00:06:38.279 --> 00:06:40.279 But you know, you just go to the grocery store 113 00:06:40.279 --> 00:06:45.439 and you can fully appreciate why well people are wondering 114 00:06:45.480 --> 00:06:48.120 what the presidential candidates might do to that. So let's 115 00:06:48.120 --> 00:06:55.519 turn over to Harris and Waltz. Now over the Univision interview. 116 00:06:55.560 --> 00:06:57.240 You've probably seen a lot of that one. None of 117 00:06:57.240 --> 00:06:59.240 it turned out real well for Kamala Harris, but one 118 00:06:59.319 --> 00:07:02.360 Latina voters the vice president during a Univision town hall 119 00:07:03.240 --> 00:07:08.040 battleground Nevada, what Kamala Harris would do so the cost 120 00:07:08.079 --> 00:07:10.800 of living doesn't destroy the middle class that are grocery 121 00:07:10.839 --> 00:07:14.160 bill has gone up one hundred dollars since Harrison Biden 122 00:07:14.199 --> 00:07:18.920 took office. I come from the working class, Harris responded. 123 00:07:20.160 --> 00:07:22.759 When you lose Saturday Night Live and you're a Democrat, 124 00:07:22.800 --> 00:07:24.279 I think you got a problem on your hands. They 125 00:07:24.319 --> 00:07:29.040 really the family feud. I don't even watch Saturday Night Live, 126 00:07:29.079 --> 00:07:31.600 but was making the rounds on conservative media because they 127 00:07:31.680 --> 00:07:34.639 really had a go at her pretty much. A quote 128 00:07:34.680 --> 00:07:37.160 on Saturday Night Live from the person playing Kamala Harris 129 00:07:37.199 --> 00:07:40.279 is the same quote that you made from Univision. What 130 00:07:40.480 --> 00:07:44.000 are you going to do about the cost of living? 131 00:07:44.040 --> 00:07:46.959 Straightforward question. I know it can be a complicated response, 132 00:07:47.279 --> 00:07:49.160 but what is there coming from middle class family have 133 00:07:49.199 --> 00:07:51.680 to do with anything. I come from a working class. 134 00:07:51.720 --> 00:07:53.639 I'm never going to forget where I come from. This 135 00:07:53.680 --> 00:07:57.160 is a response to the well believed Latino voter whose 136 00:07:57.160 --> 00:08:00.079 grocery bill has gone through the roof. Part of what 137 00:08:00.079 --> 00:08:03.600 we have to do is build what I call here. 138 00:08:03.639 --> 00:08:07.000 It is again an opportunity economy where people have the 139 00:08:07.120 --> 00:08:10.279 opportunity like you've described, for you to be able to 140 00:08:10.279 --> 00:08:12.680 work hard and you and your five daughters have an 141 00:08:12.680 --> 00:08:16.240 opportunity to do then what they and what you aspire 142 00:08:16.439 --> 00:08:25.360 for them to be able to do. Close quote. Never 143 00:08:25.439 --> 00:08:28.480 before have so many words been shoved into a sentence 144 00:08:28.519 --> 00:08:34.960 revealing absolutely nothing by way of content or coherence. This 145 00:08:35.039 --> 00:08:39.519 is what you get. Then she went to talk about 146 00:08:39.639 --> 00:08:42.879 price gouging, which I think the vast majority of folks 147 00:08:42.919 --> 00:08:45.320 is not going on to the grocery market business because 148 00:08:45.360 --> 00:08:48.879 of course their margins are so small. Here is my plan. 149 00:08:49.080 --> 00:08:51.679 It includes what we need to do to bring down 150 00:08:51.720 --> 00:08:55.159 the cost of, for example, groceries. What are the issues 151 00:08:55.159 --> 00:08:57.559 I'm going to tack going to be taking on? Is 152 00:08:57.600 --> 00:08:58.320 price gouging? 153 00:09:00.080 --> 00:09:00.320 Hmm? 154 00:09:02.000 --> 00:09:03.200 I would love for her to come up with an 155 00:09:03.240 --> 00:09:05.519 illustration or how she's figured out that someone is actually 156 00:09:05.559 --> 00:09:11.840 engaged in price gouging. Specifically, is are the orange businesses? 157 00:09:12.159 --> 00:09:14.039 And is there some problem with the crops of oranges? 158 00:09:14.080 --> 00:09:17.320 I think there are, which may supply and demand limit 159 00:09:17.360 --> 00:09:19.960 the number of oranges available, thus drive the price up. 160 00:09:20.039 --> 00:09:23.279 Acquisition cost, shipping costs, everything else has gone up. Why 161 00:09:23.360 --> 00:09:28.159 is an orange a dollar fifty? Are they gouging unfair 162 00:09:28.159 --> 00:09:30.840 profit taking in the sale of oranges? Give me one 163 00:09:31.039 --> 00:09:33.159 example that you can point to, where she can point, 164 00:09:33.159 --> 00:09:36.360 where she can say definitively. This is why I think 165 00:09:36.399 --> 00:09:39.120 price gouging and his issue is an issue price gouging. 166 00:09:39.120 --> 00:09:41.720 If she believes it to be there, that means she's 167 00:09:41.759 --> 00:09:44.840 going to engage in price fixing. Ask the Nixon administration 168 00:09:44.960 --> 00:09:47.360 how well that went, Mike, I have to go back 169 00:09:47.360 --> 00:09:52.320 a few years to see an illustration of well putting 170 00:09:52.360 --> 00:09:55.559 a lid on randomly and arbitrarily the price of any 171 00:09:55.679 --> 00:10:00.440 given good, even though market pressures and economic reality mean 172 00:10:00.440 --> 00:10:02.840 that price would have to be more in order for 173 00:10:02.879 --> 00:10:09.679 the seller of that good to make any money. Waltz 174 00:10:09.759 --> 00:10:15.840 was asked on Friday, Good Morning America about this. Waltz 175 00:10:15.879 --> 00:10:18.120 has asked why voters who blame Harris with skylight high 176 00:10:18.159 --> 00:10:21.519 prices to trust her to bring the cost of living down. Quote. 177 00:10:21.600 --> 00:10:24.799 We see some of the data, but that data doesn't 178 00:10:24.879 --> 00:10:29.080 impact people in their daily lives. Going to the grocery 179 00:10:29.080 --> 00:10:32.320 store and you see the see false information, whether it's 180 00:10:32.399 --> 00:10:35.480 bird flew impacting eggs. But the reality for most people 181 00:10:35.600 --> 00:10:38.879 is if those costs are up, they want to know 182 00:10:39.000 --> 00:10:42.519 what you're going to do about it. He said, Let's 183 00:10:42.519 --> 00:10:45.320 be candid about this there's price gouging. There is a 184 00:10:45.360 --> 00:10:54.039 price gouging piece of this. He said, hmm, this is 185 00:10:54.080 --> 00:10:59.200 the answer to say that there's price gouging without any 186 00:10:59.360 --> 00:11:02.759 price gauging, any supportive information to believe that is the 187 00:11:02.799 --> 00:11:08.120 only thing impacting the cost of groceries, for example, And 188 00:11:08.159 --> 00:11:12.240 they say it without saying how they're going to address it. Okay, 189 00:11:12.399 --> 00:11:15.000 you say there's price gouging, what are you going to 190 00:11:15.080 --> 00:11:16.679 do about it? And how are you going to go 191 00:11:16.759 --> 00:11:20.240 about it? I mean, last time I walked through Kroger 192 00:11:20.279 --> 00:11:23.039 over the weekend, looked to me like there's tens of 193 00:11:23.440 --> 00:11:28.000 thousands of different items for sale. Are all of them 194 00:11:28.639 --> 00:11:32.399 being unnecessarily inflated? What is a fair profit for grocery 195 00:11:32.399 --> 00:11:34.759 store since they're one of the businesses with the smallest 196 00:11:34.799 --> 00:11:39.320 profit margin out there. The shipping costs and the waste 197 00:11:39.399 --> 00:11:41.360 you know, you think of produce, Yeah, there's a lot 198 00:11:41.399 --> 00:11:43.919 of waste in produce that's got to be dealt with. 199 00:11:44.440 --> 00:11:47.000 Everything's expensive, this ship most notably you think about the 200 00:11:47.039 --> 00:11:50.759 weight of liquids being shipped. That's a transportation cost for that. 201 00:11:51.120 --> 00:11:53.799 Maybe that's why the cranberry juice was eleven dollars a bottle. 202 00:11:53.879 --> 00:11:57.960 I don't know, but just to say price gouging without 203 00:11:58.000 --> 00:12:01.360 any information supporting it's happening, without any plan to say 204 00:12:01.399 --> 00:12:04.399 how you are going to deal with it sounds me like, well, 205 00:12:04.399 --> 00:12:07.840 you're getting nothing by way of policy and response. And 206 00:12:07.879 --> 00:12:10.320 of course it all comes out in this crazy word 207 00:12:10.440 --> 00:12:13.799 solad crap that Kamala Harris spews out almost every single 208 00:12:13.879 --> 00:12:20.120 day most I know. I'm overtime listen to this speaking 209 00:12:20.159 --> 00:12:25.679 in the Koynonian Christian Center on Sunday, just yesterday, Greenville, 210 00:12:26.919 --> 00:12:33.759 North Carolina, in times of crisis, and we're looking at 211 00:12:33.799 --> 00:12:37.559 images of the aftermath of the hurricane. But it's easy 212 00:12:37.600 --> 00:12:41.000 in these moments of crisis to sometimes question our faith, 213 00:12:41.519 --> 00:12:45.519 to sometimes lose our faith for a moment because what 214 00:12:45.559 --> 00:12:47.759 we see is so hard to see that we lose 215 00:12:47.799 --> 00:12:51.799 faith or a vision of those things we cannot see 216 00:12:51.919 --> 00:13:03.559 but must know close quote that hurt my head. Some 217 00:13:03.639 --> 00:13:06.000 of the fun of your comments, Uh, Kamala Harris is 218 00:13:06.039 --> 00:13:08.840 a fortune cookie stuffed inside of magic eight ball and 219 00:13:08.879 --> 00:13:13.240 wrapped inside the horoscope page of your local newspaper. What 220 00:13:13.360 --> 00:13:17.159 other person they actually put this on a teleprompter five 221 00:13:17.200 --> 00:13:20.159 eighteen fifty five gear see the dog station. 222 00:13:20.320 --> 00:13:23.519 I'll be right back, hang in there, fifty five KRC 223 00:13:24.559 --> 00:13:25.480 if you missed. 224 00:13:25.200 --> 00:13:27.919 Her by twenty two and a happy Monday to you. 225 00:13:28.759 --> 00:13:32.279 Five one, three, seven, eight hundred eighty two to three 226 00:13:32.399 --> 00:13:38.000 talk time bout fifty on eighteen and ten phones. Maybe 227 00:13:38.000 --> 00:13:42.000 because of her word salads, Maybe because she's incompetent, Maybe 228 00:13:42.039 --> 00:13:44.440 because Tim Watz has got his own slate of problems 229 00:13:44.480 --> 00:13:47.000 and they grow seemingly every single day. Got a couple 230 00:13:47.000 --> 00:13:52.320 of new UH polls out Latino support described as catering 231 00:13:52.320 --> 00:13:57.000 for Kamala Harris. Interesting, Donald Trump's gaining in Latino voters. 232 00:13:57.080 --> 00:14:00.559 This is a New York Times, obviously a left leaning paper. 233 00:14:01.600 --> 00:14:08.639 Siena College poll came out yesterday. Kamala Harris. Mass migration 234 00:14:09.399 --> 00:14:10.799 is one of the problems, and it's a problem for 235 00:14:10.879 --> 00:14:17.320 Latino voters. Cost Democrats support in the well growing voter 236 00:14:17.399 --> 00:14:19.919 block that is Latino voters. Yes, there is a sizeable 237 00:14:19.919 --> 00:14:23.360 increase in the Latino population, and not everybody's a lockstep Democrat. 238 00:14:24.000 --> 00:14:25.919 In spite of the fact that Democrats black should believe 239 00:14:25.960 --> 00:14:29.639 that was going to be the case. Underperforming the past 240 00:14:29.759 --> 00:14:32.840 three Democrat candidates for the White House, Democrats still have 241 00:14:33.080 --> 00:14:37.240 a substantial lead in Latino voters, but it's eroded, and 242 00:14:37.360 --> 00:14:40.840 significantly given how close the last election was. Back in 243 00:14:40.879 --> 00:14:44.960 twenty sixteen, Democrats had sixty eight percent of Latino vote 244 00:14:45.000 --> 00:14:47.320 to twenty eight percent of the Republicans. Democrats in twenty 245 00:14:47.399 --> 00:14:51.639 twenty had sixty two to Republicans thirty six. Now currently 246 00:14:51.639 --> 00:14:55.559 polling at fifty six to the Republicans thirty seven percent. 247 00:14:57.320 --> 00:14:59.639 But in this poll the New York Times Siena poll, 248 00:15:00.000 --> 00:15:05.440 twenty two percent of likely Hispanic voters consider themselves Republican, 249 00:15:05.600 --> 00:15:08.639 thirty eight consider themselves Democrat. I was shocked by that. 250 00:15:08.759 --> 00:15:12.159 I thought the numbers would be rather well broader margin 251 00:15:12.240 --> 00:15:17.480 than that that more Hispanics would consider themselves Democrat, twenty 252 00:15:17.480 --> 00:15:23.519 five consider themselves independent. Now, according to the analysis from 253 00:15:23.559 --> 00:15:25.679 the New York Times, the last Democrat to fall below 254 00:15:25.759 --> 00:15:28.200 sixty percent and again right now, it's at fifty six 255 00:15:29.200 --> 00:15:32.519 with Latina voters John Kerry, who lost in two thousand 256 00:15:32.559 --> 00:15:35.000 and four, if you recall, but it was only ten 257 00:15:35.080 --> 00:15:38.759 years ago, seventy percent of Latino voters backed Barack Obama, 258 00:15:39.720 --> 00:15:41.960 and that, of course is a stark contrast to where 259 00:15:42.000 --> 00:15:44.480 things stand right now with Latino voters and the New 260 00:15:44.559 --> 00:15:47.080 York Times also appointed out that younger Latino voters are 261 00:15:47.080 --> 00:15:50.960 twice as likely to say Trump's policies helped them versus 262 00:15:50.960 --> 00:15:55.320 the current administration's policies, so they also can remember are 263 00:15:55.360 --> 00:15:59.960 you better off four years ago or now? Black support 264 00:16:00.200 --> 00:16:04.120 has been eroded as well. Democrats obviously typically had a 265 00:16:04.440 --> 00:16:08.480 very lockstep mass majority of black voters. Hillary Clinton got 266 00:16:08.639 --> 00:16:11.600 ninety two percent of the black vote in twenty sixteen, 267 00:16:12.200 --> 00:16:16.799 Biden ninety percent in twenty twenty. The same poll in 268 00:16:16.840 --> 00:16:21.039 New York Times Senate College poll, Harris seventy eight percent 269 00:16:21.559 --> 00:16:25.519 among black voters. Black support for Trump has more than 270 00:16:25.600 --> 00:16:30.320 doubled since twenty sixteen. Are black swell Republicans currently fifteen percent? 271 00:16:30.399 --> 00:16:35.240 Now again not a sizeable number, but when you look 272 00:16:35.320 --> 00:16:37.279 at the national race, and you look at some of 273 00:16:37.320 --> 00:16:40.360 these swing state races, an erosion of five points ten 274 00:16:40.399 --> 00:16:44.080 points in this case, fifteen percent can mean a sizeable 275 00:16:44.120 --> 00:16:47.039 difference in the overall outcome. Poll noted the seventy five 276 00:16:47.039 --> 00:16:49.000 percent of Black voters phil Harris would do a better 277 00:16:49.080 --> 00:16:52.480 job of handling issues important to them than Trump, but 278 00:16:52.799 --> 00:16:57.000 seventeen percent believe Trump would do a better job. That's 279 00:16:57.120 --> 00:16:59.919 a lot higher than it was in the last election, 280 00:17:00.440 --> 00:17:08.440 so two typically very very significant strongholds for Democrats eroding. 281 00:17:08.640 --> 00:17:13.039 I guess they will looking at their own best interest 282 00:17:13.079 --> 00:17:15.759 and deciding that No. I guess the narrative I've been 283 00:17:15.799 --> 00:17:18.759 sold over the years that you know, for example, I'm black, 284 00:17:18.799 --> 00:17:21.640 therefore I must be Democrat or I'm not black, thank you, 285 00:17:21.720 --> 00:17:24.799 Joe Biden. People aren't buying that as much as they 286 00:17:24.880 --> 00:17:26.480 used to anymore, and good for them. It's going to 287 00:17:26.519 --> 00:17:28.720 be better for their lives their outcomes if they start 288 00:17:28.839 --> 00:17:32.559 looking at things a lot more objectively than listening to 289 00:17:32.599 --> 00:17:37.279 the din the messaging that's NonStop Black people must be Democrat. 290 00:17:37.680 --> 00:17:40.759 Never have understood that. Five twenty six right now, got 291 00:17:40.799 --> 00:17:42.759 local stories coming out. I prefer talking to you. If 292 00:17:42.799 --> 00:17:44.359 you want to call in, I'll be right back. 293 00:17:44.680 --> 00:17:48.000 This is fifty five KARC and iHeartRadio station. 294 00:17:48.640 --> 00:17:51.400 Is your financial advisor as active as your local stories. 295 00:17:54.200 --> 00:17:55.880 Oh it's Monday and it's the five o'clock. I ar 296 00:17:55.880 --> 00:17:59.319 giving a little bit of a break. Dust the cobwebs 297 00:17:59.319 --> 00:18:06.960 out of my brain. Okay, sorry, it was a mistake, 298 00:18:07.039 --> 00:18:12.400 Greg Lansman says regarding his stock trades, of course, raising 299 00:18:12.480 --> 00:18:14.960 questions about what he knew and when he knew, violating 300 00:18:15.000 --> 00:18:17.799 the Stock Act by not reporting his transactions within forty 301 00:18:17.799 --> 00:18:23.240 five days. Congressional ethics rules require transactions be revealed within 302 00:18:23.319 --> 00:18:26.839 forty five days. Thanks Scott Wartman the inquire reminding us 303 00:18:26.839 --> 00:18:30.279 and reporting that some of stocks Landsman in Landsman's recently 304 00:18:31.079 --> 00:18:33.920 received report or disclosed report were bought and sold as 305 00:18:33.960 --> 00:18:36.920 far back as the very month he took office in 306 00:18:37.039 --> 00:18:41.240 January twenty three, well outside of the forty five day window. 307 00:18:43.240 --> 00:18:46.559 Lansman said he disclosed the stock trades as soon as 308 00:18:46.559 --> 00:18:51.720 he knew about him So, Lansman's August transaction reboard showed 309 00:18:51.839 --> 00:18:54.759 ninety one stock transactions and calendar year twenty three and 310 00:18:54.799 --> 00:18:58.440 twenty four worth it a total of between two hundred 311 00:18:58.440 --> 00:19:02.000 and three and one point six million dollars. Where Greg 312 00:19:02.039 --> 00:19:03.880 get all his money? Joe you know? Oh, by the way, 313 00:19:03.880 --> 00:19:08.279 Happy birthday, Joe, late birthday, Joe's birthday ever the weekend anyway? 314 00:19:08.319 --> 00:19:10.480 All of them part of either fun he has with 315 00:19:10.680 --> 00:19:13.880 Rockefeller Capital Management or part of his wife, Sarah. Landsman's 316 00:19:13.920 --> 00:19:21.799 individual retirement account. Investments include interesting selection here, Apple, Microsoft, 317 00:19:22.400 --> 00:19:26.359 Black Rock, Eli, Lilly, a pharmaceutical company, as well as 318 00:19:26.440 --> 00:19:33.559 Exxon Mobile. Kind of negating his corporate street cred there 319 00:19:33.640 --> 00:19:38.240 that one. Anyway, they nothing's really going to happen to him. 320 00:19:38.240 --> 00:19:43.079 Of course, Todd Zenser filed a complaint with the Congressional 321 00:19:43.119 --> 00:19:46.160 Ethics Department over these failed faire to report this as 322 00:19:46.240 --> 00:19:50.279 required by the Stock Act. But as it's reported, the 323 00:19:50.519 --> 00:19:54.720 stakes pretty low and probably won't result in anything. Each 324 00:19:54.839 --> 00:19:57.960 violation of the Stock Act carries a two hundred dollars fine. 325 00:19:58.319 --> 00:20:01.200 No member of Congress has ever had to pay it, 326 00:20:03.359 --> 00:20:06.759 since no Stock Act violation charges have ever been prosecuted. 327 00:20:09.079 --> 00:20:11.319 So they enact a law to provide some measure of 328 00:20:11.359 --> 00:20:14.440 credibility so we'd know how they are being potentially influenced 329 00:20:14.440 --> 00:20:16.200 by their investments and how they vote. 330 00:20:16.640 --> 00:20:16.799 Hmm. 331 00:20:17.119 --> 00:20:19.440 But the law carries with it no real teeth, so 332 00:20:19.559 --> 00:20:23.160 obviously it's not frightening for members elected officials to perhaps 333 00:20:23.319 --> 00:20:28.519 ignore it for almost two years. Saint Savior High School 334 00:20:28.559 --> 00:20:32.480 teacher was fired after the school became aware of what 335 00:20:32.519 --> 00:20:37.599 they describe as a possible boundary violation. Their words, that 336 00:20:37.640 --> 00:20:40.680 boundary violation with a student. According to the school confirmation 337 00:20:40.720 --> 00:20:43.480 on Friday morning, speaking with the end enquires Madeline Mitchell, 338 00:20:43.559 --> 00:20:45.799 the care of these students and family remains. The school 339 00:20:45.799 --> 00:20:49.279 stop wriety during this most difficult time course Saint Savior 340 00:20:49.359 --> 00:20:55.160 High School see here Infinnytown a court to Springfield police. 341 00:20:55.200 --> 00:20:58.920 They say the school notified investigators Wednesday about a possible 342 00:20:59.000 --> 00:21:03.799 inappropriate condact and communication involving staff member and a student. 343 00:21:05.119 --> 00:21:07.640 Farmer reported that officers were actively working to determine if 344 00:21:07.640 --> 00:21:09.920 a crime had been committed. School officials say the employee 345 00:21:09.920 --> 00:21:13.000 who was terminated is instructed not to contact any of 346 00:21:13.079 --> 00:21:21.640 the school's students, faculty, or staff. Three people, including a juvenile, 347 00:21:21.680 --> 00:21:25.359 hospitalized Saturday afternoon in a shooting Mount area. According Cincinnati Police, 348 00:21:25.400 --> 00:21:27.400 the shooting took place at quarter to three in the 349 00:21:27.440 --> 00:21:31.039 afternoon the intersection of Shadiness lay in a Richueal Court. 350 00:21:31.799 --> 00:21:35.640 Police said after the they believe three victims were in 351 00:21:35.680 --> 00:21:39.319 a Black Afford Focus when the shooting happened. Since a 352 00:21:39.400 --> 00:21:42.160 police officers, one victim was grazed in the head, one 353 00:21:42.240 --> 00:21:44.599 was shot in the stomach, the other was shot in 354 00:21:44.640 --> 00:21:48.079 the thigh. Officer didn't specify which victims sustained what injuries, 355 00:21:48.079 --> 00:21:51.359 but all three have in their words, serious injuries but 356 00:21:51.480 --> 00:21:55.759 are stable. Two of the victims taking a UC medical center. 357 00:21:55.799 --> 00:21:59.279 The juvenile transported to Children's Hospital. Medical police had not 358 00:21:59.319 --> 00:22:01.839 said if they have any suspects of shootings. I suspect 359 00:22:02.200 --> 00:22:04.240 if you have any information about that, police would love 360 00:22:04.279 --> 00:22:06.119 to hear from your crime stoppers the number three five 361 00:22:06.240 --> 00:22:14.400 two thirty forty. We have another shooting. Man hospitalized yesterday 362 00:22:14.400 --> 00:22:17.039 morning after shooting in East Price Hill took place in 363 00:22:17.039 --> 00:22:20.000 the one thousand block of Woodlawn Avenue about nine am. 364 00:22:20.400 --> 00:22:22.240 Please said a man was taken to the hospital.

Police don't know if they've identified the shooter. 367 00:22:31.079 --> 00:22:33.799 That's an interesting way of phrasing that investigation is ongoing. 368 00:22:33.839 --> 00:22:35.640 And again three five two thirty forty, if you have 369 00:22:35.680 --> 00:22:39.680 anything about that. One and one more victim of a 370 00:22:39.720 --> 00:22:42.960 fatal shooting in Avondel's now an identified.

Don't 376 00:22:57.640 --> 00:22:59.400 know what led to the shooting. At this time.

Anyway? Thirty seven years old, as 418 00:25:22.640 --> 00:25:26.759 well as Reginald Lamont Reynold, he was thirty five. According 419 00:25:26.759 --> 00:25:29.359 to the local news, They noted that the drugs were 420 00:25:29.400 --> 00:25:32.559 fentanyl and methan fetamine and mounting to over ten grams. 421 00:25:32.599 --> 00:25:35.640 Para pulled over in Southeast one twenty second Division on 422 00:25:35.759 --> 00:25:41.359 Tuesday night after police noticed the allegedly stolen car. Both 423 00:25:41.759 --> 00:25:46.480 Reynolds and Baggin's toasts booked on charges of delivering methan fetamine, 424 00:25:46.559 --> 00:25:49.319 unlawful possession of methn fetamine, unauthorized use of a vehicle, 425 00:25:49.359 --> 00:25:52.119 in possession of a stolen vehicle. Prosecutors reportedly indicated they 426 00:25:52.119 --> 00:25:56.640 wouldn't bring charges against the woman. No explanation as to 427 00:25:56.680 --> 00:26:02.799 why charges won't be brought. Definitely not a bag full 428 00:26:02.839 --> 00:26:07.680 of drugs. No red flag there. What is described as 429 00:26:07.720 --> 00:26:12.359 an eye opening new study. You might be grossed out 430 00:26:12.359 --> 00:26:14.960 over this one northwtte information you need to know. The 431 00:26:15.119 --> 00:26:21.839 Northwestern University researchers uncovered more than six hundred different viruses 432 00:26:23.039 --> 00:26:30.240 on everyday items like shower heads and toothbrushes. From ninety 433 00:26:30.240 --> 00:26:33.920 two showerhead and thirty four toothbrush samples, researchers found that 434 00:26:34.000 --> 00:26:37.279 each one was teeming with unique mix of viruses. Quote. 435 00:26:37.279 --> 00:26:41.039 The number of viruses that we found is absolutely wild. 436 00:26:41.160 --> 00:26:44.920 That's a quote from Erica Hartman, and indoor microbiologist who 437 00:26:44.960 --> 00:26:48.680 led the study. Thank you, Joe. I was waiting for 438 00:26:48.759 --> 00:26:50.720 the moment that you were going to hit that SoundBite. 439 00:26:50.720 --> 00:26:53.599 Despite the startling discovery, there are apparently is some good news. 440 00:26:53.640 --> 00:26:59.880 Most of the viruses keyword most were bacteria fages, which 441 00:26:59.880 --> 00:27:03.759 are viruses that infect and destroyed bacteria rather than harm humans. 442 00:27:04.000 --> 00:27:07.359 Hartman and the team noted that the skeptical Joe is 443 00:27:08.839 --> 00:27:11.519 no doctor Fauci was not involved in this study. Joe. 444 00:27:15.640 --> 00:27:19.480 Most of the team noted that these microbacteriofages, which specifically 445 00:27:19.480 --> 00:27:25.359 target microbacteria, that is, bacteria responsible for diseases like tuberculosis 446 00:27:25.400 --> 00:27:30.720 and leprosy, we're among those common samples. Explained that these 447 00:27:30.799 --> 00:27:34.640 viruses could potentially offer a benefit. We can envision using 448 00:27:34.920 --> 00:27:39.720 microbacterioflages to clean pathogens out of plumbing systems, raising the 449 00:27:39.720 --> 00:27:43.680 possibility of leveraging the natural occurring viruses for some sanitation purposes. 450 00:27:44.599 --> 00:27:49.440 Research published in Frontiers in Microbiomes. Jostrekker no longer gets 451 00:27:49.440 --> 00:27:52.680 the hard copy of that one. It's pure electronic build 452 00:27:52.759 --> 00:27:55.240 on earlier findings from her team, including a study on 453 00:27:55.720 --> 00:28:00.079 well Operation potty Mouth, which determine that most of the 454 00:28:00.079 --> 00:28:03.680 microbes found on toothbrushes actually come from the user's mouth 455 00:28:03.839 --> 00:28:09.000 rather than from airborne particles released by flushing the toilet. 456 00:28:10.519 --> 00:28:13.240 Hartman says she wanted to reassure the public that most 457 00:28:13.279 --> 00:28:16.039 of these microbes pose no threat to our health, in fact, 458 00:28:16.200 --> 00:28:20.039 arguing that an over reliance on antimicrobial products could lead 459 00:28:20.079 --> 00:28:23.039 to more harm than good. The more you attack them 460 00:28:23.079 --> 00:28:28.440 with disinfectants, the more they are likely to develop resistance. Okay. 461 00:28:29.839 --> 00:28:32.559 She recommends regularly cleaning shower heads with soap and water 462 00:28:32.720 --> 00:28:35.519 or soaking them in vinegar to prevent calcium build up. 463 00:28:36.200 --> 00:28:41.200 Regarding toothbrushes, she says replace electric toothbrush heads regularly, but 464 00:28:41.440 --> 00:28:46.519 don't obsess over anti microbial gimmicks. Microbes part of everyday life, 465 00:28:46.599 --> 00:28:48.799 she said, Rather than fearing them, we should all just 466 00:28:48.880 --> 00:28:55.720 embrace them, all six hundred different ones. That sounds horrific, 467 00:28:55.759 --> 00:28:56.240 doesn't it. 468 00:29:01.079 --> 00:29:01.160 Now. 469 00:29:01.240 --> 00:29:04.480 I don't think quitting showers and stop brushing teeth is 470 00:29:04.519 --> 00:29:08.039 the right way to go, Joe. I'm gonna just suggesting 471 00:29:08.440 --> 00:29:09.359 not go down that road. 472 00:29:09.759 --> 00:29:13.680 Oh, don't make the rules, ma'am, I think down. 473 00:29:13.400 --> 00:29:15.200 And since they did mention Joe had a birthday over 474 00:29:15.279 --> 00:29:17.680 the weekend, thank you, mister Tuba. I looked up and 475 00:29:17.720 --> 00:29:20.720 I saw mister Tuba was calling Joe's strecker and he 476 00:29:20.759 --> 00:29:22.720 didn't put him on hold. I said, Joe, is mister 477 00:29:22.759 --> 00:29:25.640 Tuba playing a happy birthday to you? And he's nodded 478 00:29:25.680 --> 00:29:29.000 his head. So well done, mister Tuba. I think he 479 00:29:29.079 --> 00:29:31.559 calls like three hundred and fifty people annually and does 480 00:29:31.559 --> 00:29:33.960 his little Tuba happy birthday message, which is a very 481 00:29:34.039 --> 00:29:37.000 nice thing. Good guy he is. And somebody who shows 482 00:29:37.039 --> 00:29:38.839 up a listener to lunch regularly. Speaking of a listener 483 00:29:38.880 --> 00:29:41.680 of lunch after the election, it's the day after the election. 484 00:29:42.880 --> 00:29:45.640 We are going to have listener lunch at Ron's Roost 485 00:29:45.680 --> 00:29:47.599 on the West Side the day after the election. I 486 00:29:47.680 --> 00:29:49.880 know that may be tough for some people to make, 487 00:29:49.960 --> 00:29:51.599 especially folks who are going to be staring at the 488 00:29:51.599 --> 00:29:53.519 screen all night waiting for the returns to come in. 489 00:29:54.039 --> 00:29:55.079 I don't even know if we're going to have a 490 00:29:55.079 --> 00:29:58.480 definitive result the next day. Considering all the shenanigans are 491 00:29:58.519 --> 00:30:01.400 going on, We've obviously got logistical problems in the states 492 00:30:01.400 --> 00:30:03.319 that were hit by hurricanes. We're not quite sure how 493 00:30:03.359 --> 00:30:06.599 they're going to resolve that. But we're still having listener 494 00:30:06.720 --> 00:30:08.319 lunch a day after the election, and I hope we 495 00:30:08.359 --> 00:30:11.799 are in a celebratory mood. I was telling people of 496 00:30:11.799 --> 00:30:14.359 the last listener lunch that if we're not in a 497 00:30:14.440 --> 00:30:16.400 celebratory mood, I think I'll just sit at the bar 498 00:30:16.519 --> 00:30:21.000 and down shots or something. Anyway, you can mark it 499 00:30:21.039 --> 00:30:23.200 on your calendar if you're interested in ron Z Rust 500 00:30:24.039 --> 00:30:26.680 the day after election day five forty five more stupid 501 00:30:26.680 --> 00:30:28.319 coming up if you want to stick around for that. 502 00:30:28.359 --> 00:30:31.359 But first, Emory Federal Credit Union.

Never heard of him, doesn't matter. 543 00:32:36.200 --> 00:32:38.920 Rapper Dan, Sir Joe, were you familiar with this guy? 544 00:32:40.119 --> 00:32:40.880 I know you're not here. 545 00:32:41.000 --> 00:32:42.440 No buddy care exactly. 546 00:32:43.440 --> 00:32:45.559 Snuffers rap music that he's making with the news it's 547 00:32:45.599 --> 00:32:50.079 for his look apparently, as the reporting from Yahoo says, 548 00:32:50.079 --> 00:32:53.000 he has got one point nine million so called followers 549 00:32:53.039 --> 00:32:58.519 on TikTok and he's been gaining attention for his gold 550 00:32:58.680 --> 00:33:02.519 chains that he in play ented directly into his skull. 551 00:33:03.880 --> 00:33:08.720 Why are you doing that? No blank an idea quote. 552 00:33:09.359 --> 00:33:12.000 I have it as a hook that's implanted in my head, 553 00:33:12.720 --> 00:33:15.880 and that hook has hooks, and they are all hooked 554 00:33:15.880 --> 00:33:19.039 in my skull under my skin. This is my hair, 555 00:33:19.160 --> 00:33:21.839 golden hair, the first rapper to have gold hair implanted 556 00:33:21.880 --> 00:33:27.279 in human history. Idiots doing idiots, idiots. Apparently people don't 557 00:33:27.279 --> 00:33:29.759 believe it it's real. So he's gone on TikTok on 558 00:33:29.839 --> 00:33:33.400 multiple occasions to prove that his chains are in fact real. 559 00:33:33.920 --> 00:33:38.079 In one post, he seeks to disprove the chains are 560 00:33:38.079 --> 00:33:40.720 plastic by showing that they don't float in a glass 561 00:33:40.799 --> 00:33:41.559 of water. 562 00:33:44.200 --> 00:33:44.640 Whatever. 563 00:33:45.440 --> 00:33:48.720 According to a plastic surgeon, doctor Frank Aguilla, who was 564 00:33:48.759 --> 00:33:50.960 interviewed about this and whether it's a good idea to 565 00:33:51.000 --> 00:33:54.440 do or not, No, don't do it. It carries a 566 00:33:54.519 --> 00:33:56.960 man's risk, he said, implants like this are not safe. 567 00:33:57.000 --> 00:34:00.759 They introduce an easy path or bacteria between the outside 568 00:34:00.799 --> 00:34:03.400 world and the internal body. Going back to our toothbrush 569 00:34:03.519 --> 00:34:06.559 article Joe, in this case the bone covering the brain. 570 00:34:06.680 --> 00:34:09.039 In addition, I am concerned about the amount of weight 571 00:34:09.119 --> 00:34:11.440 these hooks are supporting. The weight of the weight or 572 00:34:11.480 --> 00:34:14.559 any incidental tug on a band of gold caused the 573 00:34:14.599 --> 00:34:19.519 implant to dislodge and even fracture the skull, and if 574 00:34:19.519 --> 00:34:22.280 he removes the chains, well, he still has hooks sticking 575 00:34:22.280 --> 00:34:25.800 out of his head. The doctor said, hygiene, even sleeping 576 00:34:25.880 --> 00:34:35.960 can become challenging. Dermatologist doctor Monagahara, also talking with Yahoo, 577 00:34:35.960 --> 00:34:38.880 I would imagine that one could take out the hooks, 578 00:34:38.920 --> 00:34:42.000 but not without risk of permanent scarring or scalp inflammation. 579 00:34:42.079 --> 00:34:45.360 One might even experience permanent hair loss from damage to 580 00:34:45.400 --> 00:34:49.239 the follicle. She also said, I would strongly discourage anyone 581 00:34:49.280 --> 00:34:52.320 from undergoing this procedure for all the risks and complications involved, 582 00:34:52.480 --> 00:34:56.239 especially at a young age. Long term consequences need to 583 00:34:56.239 --> 00:34:59.880 be considered. I think there are more sensible and easily 584 00:35:00.079 --> 00:35:04.800 reversible alternatives, like wearing a wig with gold jains. I 585 00:35:04.840 --> 00:35:07.000 don't believe that it needs to be anchored to your skull. 586 00:35:07.440 --> 00:35:11.159 Question why does anyone need blank and gold hair in 587 00:35:11.159 --> 00:35:14.719 the first place? What's the point? What message are you 588 00:35:14.800 --> 00:35:22.440 trying to send? H Yes, Eric, and someone could yank 589 00:35:22.559 --> 00:35:25.719 on them and yank them out of the skull, maybe 590 00:35:25.760 --> 00:35:29.599 some random dude, maybe on the dance floor at the club. 591 00:35:30.639 --> 00:35:36.519 It's a good point. Thanks Eric, and more social influencers 592 00:35:36.679 --> 00:35:42.840 dying we have someone who's described as a daredevil British 593 00:35:42.920 --> 00:35:47.440 influencer now dead after falling from Spain's highest bridge during 594 00:35:47.440 --> 00:35:53.400 an attempted social media stunt. Apparently, this guy, described as 595 00:35:53.440 --> 00:35:56.719 a digital creator, was twenty six years old plunged from 596 00:35:56.760 --> 00:36:00.719 the two hundred and thirty foot Castillo launch A bridge 597 00:36:00.760 --> 00:36:06.000 which stands over the Targets River south of Madrid. The 598 00:36:06.039 --> 00:36:08.199 bridge said to have been with a twenty four year 599 00:36:08.199 --> 00:36:12.719 old companion when he fell to his death. Let us 600 00:36:12.719 --> 00:36:15.719 see police as well as local firefighters rushed the scene 601 00:36:15.719 --> 00:36:17.639 of paramedics, but there was nothing they could do to 602 00:36:17.679 --> 00:36:20.639 save him. Footage from the scene the tragedy shows police 603 00:36:20.719 --> 00:36:24.639 quartering off the area near where he fell. The council 604 00:36:24.719 --> 00:36:27.039 there confirmed the death and a statement saying local officials 605 00:36:27.039 --> 00:36:30.159 have long made clear that climbing the bridge is totally 606 00:36:30.199 --> 00:36:33.280 banned and cannot be done under any circumstances. Well, therean 607 00:36:33.320 --> 00:36:38.920 lies the challenge right. Councilor for Citizens Security Amr Serrina Munios, 608 00:36:39.000 --> 00:36:41.000 has confirmed the death of the young man after he 609 00:36:41.079 --> 00:36:43.480 fell from the bridge. He was twenty six yearld Englishman 610 00:36:43.480 --> 00:36:46.360 and fel while climbing the bridge. Someone with the councilors 611 00:36:46.400 --> 00:36:50.239 made the clear totally prohibited, and they reiterated on neumerous 612 00:36:50.239 --> 00:36:56.159 occasions it cannot be done under any circumstances. National police 613 00:36:56.280 --> 00:36:59.679 and firefighters and an emergency ambulance were sent there, but 614 00:36:59.679 --> 00:37:04.440 again nothing they could do. Widely considered a waste of 615 00:37:04.440 --> 00:37:07.000 money by a local national media, but it was built 616 00:37:07.039 --> 00:37:09.639 and has carried little traffic, often referred to as the 617 00:37:09.840 --> 00:37:13.559 bridge to Nowhere. A year ago, local police reported a 618 00:37:13.599 --> 00:37:16.400 couple of bloggers climbed it without any protection, then posted 619 00:37:16.480 --> 00:37:19.679 videos and of course this had to be done again. 620 00:37:23.639 --> 00:37:25.440 I just think it's funny, They noted, they don't even 621 00:37:25.480 --> 00:37:28.679 know his name, but he is a British social media influencer, 622 00:37:28.719 --> 00:37:30.159 not apparently a very good one. 623 00:37:31.559 --> 00:37:31.920 Ah. 624 00:37:31.960 --> 00:37:34.239 And finally, staff members at a primary school in Texas 625 00:37:34.320 --> 00:37:37.639 placed on leave after putting so called sleeping stickers on 626 00:37:37.719 --> 00:37:42.400 preschoolers during a nap. Allegations came to light last in 627 00:37:42.440 --> 00:37:44.599 September after one of the children came home from school 628 00:37:44.599 --> 00:37:46.880 the sticker to show her mom. That sticker on the 629 00:37:47.039 --> 00:37:50.239 shape of a square with rounded edges, pale purple background, 630 00:37:50.559 --> 00:37:52.320 and a glow in the dark looking design of a 631 00:37:52.320 --> 00:37:55.400 crescent moon along the starry night, two clouds passing by 632 00:37:55.599 --> 00:37:59.119 parents say this suspensions of the various employees allegedly responsible 633 00:37:59.119 --> 00:38:02.280 are not enough. They weren't criminal charges filed. School officials 634 00:38:02.280 --> 00:38:04.639 say their own law enforcement apparatus. Now in the case, 635 00:38:05.119 --> 00:38:07.400 four year old girl was the impetus for the ensuing scandal. 636 00:38:07.480 --> 00:38:10.599 Child's mom speaking with local news, she said, it's a 637 00:38:10.639 --> 00:38:13.599 sleeping sticker. That's what the mom learned. I asked where 638 00:38:13.599 --> 00:38:15.280 did you get it, and she said, my teacher gives 639 00:38:15.280 --> 00:38:19.079 it to me for sleeping time. First, mom said her 640 00:38:19.119 --> 00:38:22.159 daughter told the children on the same preschool class received 641 00:38:22.159 --> 00:38:24.280 the same sticker. Next day, we went to school, she said, 642 00:38:24.320 --> 00:38:26.280 talking to the news outlet. We brought the evidence up 643 00:38:26.320 --> 00:38:28.679 here and we filled a report. We didn't say we 644 00:38:28.719 --> 00:38:30.760 wanted to file criminal charges. If this is something that 645 00:38:30.880 --> 00:38:37.000 is true. Sticker makes me fall asleep, the child said, hmmm. 646 00:38:38.599 --> 00:38:42.280 No criminal investigation was being conducted after weeks. Even more distressing, 647 00:38:42.320 --> 00:38:44.760 no other parents at the elementary school been notified about 648 00:38:44.800 --> 00:38:51.320 these sleeping stickers. Active ingredient in the sticker melatonin and 649 00:38:51.400 --> 00:38:53.960 over the counter dietary supplement commonly used as a sleep 650 00:38:53.960 --> 00:38:58.280 aid supplement, generally intended for adults. Currently unclear whether melitonin 651 00:38:58.320 --> 00:39:03.239 supplements are safe for children a Mayo clinic. So they 652 00:39:03.280 --> 00:39:07.159 have drug laced melowtonin lace stickers and they stick them 653 00:39:07.159 --> 00:39:09.400 on the heads of the kids and apparently that causes 654 00:39:09.400 --> 00:39:13.559 them to fall asleep. Nothing to see here. Who is 655 00:39:13.920 --> 00:39:16.239 in charge of your children or who are the people 656 00:39:16.280 --> 00:39:17.960 in charge of your children? And do they have your 657 00:39:18.000 --> 00:39:21.559 children's best interest at stake?

He said, that's the last time I won. 684 00:40:33.559 --> 00:40:35.599 The last Listener Lunch at Ronz Rus was the last 685 00:40:35.639 --> 00:40:37.679 time I actually beat him at cribbage. And you can 686 00:40:37.719 --> 00:40:40.039 count on one hand less two fingers the number of 687 00:40:40.039 --> 00:40:43.000 times have actually won. I just always enjoy playing the 688 00:40:43.000 --> 00:40:45.199 game with him though he's a good man, and really 689 00:40:45.280 --> 00:40:48.480 enjoy our fellowship. I enjoy everybody's fellowship at Listener Lunch. 690 00:40:48.519 --> 00:40:54.039 So market dude, Ron's Rustlet I see here. Border Patrol 691 00:40:54.159 --> 00:40:57.079 unanimously endorsed Donald Trump put another feather in his cap. 692 00:40:57.119 --> 00:40:59.519 The Official Union of the US Border Patrol announced the 693 00:40:59.639 --> 00:41:03.280 full support of Donald Trump at a rally in Prescott 694 00:41:03.320 --> 00:41:06.760 on Sunday yesterday. He said he was honored to receive 695 00:41:06.800 --> 00:41:10.760 the endorsement Trump did called a great honor, apparently unanimous. 696 00:41:11.559 --> 00:41:13.360 You then invite to Paul Prez, the president of the 697 00:41:13.440 --> 00:41:15.920 National Border Control Council, onto the stage with him. Press 698 00:41:15.960 --> 00:41:17.639 said it was a message for everyone in the crowd. 699 00:41:17.639 --> 00:41:21.079 If we allow borders are Harris to win this election, 700 00:41:21.239 --> 00:41:24.360 every city, every community in this great country is going 701 00:41:24.400 --> 00:41:29.199 to go to hell, said pres But I'm to say 702 00:41:29.239 --> 00:41:32.599 the untold millions of people unvetted who she has allowed 703 00:41:32.639 --> 00:41:35.639 into this country that are committing murders, rapes, robberies, burglaries, 704 00:41:35.679 --> 00:41:37.639 and every other crime will continue to put our country 705 00:41:37.679 --> 00:41:41.480 in peril. One man can fix that. That is Donald Trump. 706 00:41:41.760 --> 00:41:43.280 He has always stood with the men and women who 707 00:41:43.280 --> 00:41:45.360 protect the border, who put their lives on the line 708 00:41:45.360 --> 00:41:50.199 for the country. Press said on behalf of the sixteen 709 00:41:50.440 --> 00:41:53.400 thousand men and women represented by the National Border Patrol Council, 710 00:41:53.400 --> 00:41:56.119 we strongly support Inodorris Donald J. Trump, the President of 711 00:41:56.159 --> 00:42:00.079 the United States of America. So not shocking me or 712 00:42:00.159 --> 00:42:03.679 patrol agents. Appreciate what they're doing and believe their job 713 00:42:03.760 --> 00:42:06.000 is a very valuable one, protecting the interior of our 714 00:42:06.039 --> 00:42:09.320 country from evildoers if you have an opportunity, I believe 715 00:42:09.559 --> 00:42:15.639 it was. Fox News did a multi page breakdown article 716 00:42:15.679 --> 00:42:19.679 caption Migrant crime waive during Biden Harris administration under scrutiny 717 00:42:19.679 --> 00:42:23.639 amid series of assaults, murders, a timeline and they go 718 00:42:23.679 --> 00:42:25.360 all the way back to twenty twenty two and each 719 00:42:25.440 --> 00:42:27.639 year and the list of crimes and the description of 720 00:42:27.639 --> 00:42:30.880 the crimes committed by illegal immigrants, most notably against children, 721 00:42:31.599 --> 00:42:37.880 is absolutely horrific. Then everybody commits crime. No, everyone doesn't 722 00:42:37.880 --> 00:42:40.639 commit crime. And if you can keep a certain segment 723 00:42:40.639 --> 00:42:42.119 of the people out of our country because they're not 724 00:42:42.159 --> 00:42:44.079 allowed to be here in the first place, you don't 725 00:42:44.159 --> 00:42:46.159 run the risk of those people coming into our country 726 00:42:46.159 --> 00:42:49.519 and committing crimes. Noting, as it's been widely reported, many 727 00:42:49.559 --> 00:42:51.760 of the countries from far and wide that are sending 728 00:42:51.760 --> 00:42:54.119 people to the southern border and maybe even the northern border, 729 00:42:54.400 --> 00:42:56.760 are just emptying their prisons out and getting rid of 730 00:42:56.800 --> 00:42:59.880 all their bad people. It reduces their cost of doing business. 731 00:43:00.079 --> 00:43:03.079 Those various countries. We have x numbers of millions of 732 00:43:03.079 --> 00:43:05.199 dollars we pay a year to keep these people in prison. 733 00:43:05.239 --> 00:43:08.000 What if we just unload these people into the United States. 734 00:43:08.000 --> 00:43:11.440 They're not stopping anybody from a crossing the border. Solution 735 00:43:13.320 --> 00:43:18.559 happened many times in the past, and the results overwhelming 736 00:43:18.639 --> 00:43:22.920 school districts. Daily Caller reported on this one regarding what's 737 00:43:22.920 --> 00:43:26.079 going on in Pennsylvania. A massive influx of non English 738 00:43:26.079 --> 00:43:28.880 speaking students is overwhelming the school districts. The number of 739 00:43:28.920 --> 00:43:34.639 English language learners that's ell in school districts in Pennsylvania 740 00:43:34.840 --> 00:43:38.559 surged forty percent since twenty twenty one. This obviously forces 741 00:43:38.599 --> 00:43:42.119 the public schools to allocate a whole lot more cash 742 00:43:42.119 --> 00:43:44.400 to meet the needs of these students. The English is 743 00:43:44.480 --> 00:43:46.159 not a language. I don't know if you can call 744 00:43:46.159 --> 00:43:50.519 it a secondary language. He's the folks who don't speak English. 745 00:43:50.960 --> 00:43:59.000 Records collected by the DCNF Daily Calor News Foundation show 746 00:43:59.000 --> 00:44:02.199 a staggering increase of English learner students and obviously these 747 00:44:02.199 --> 00:44:04.920 swelling costs that go along with that problem is twofold. 748 00:44:04.960 --> 00:44:07.760 According to Joan Cullen, serves as president of the Penridge 749 00:44:07.800 --> 00:44:12.360 School Board, or formerly did said, you're obviously the financial issue. 750 00:44:12.400 --> 00:44:14.519 You have the financial issue, but the issues of where 751 00:44:14.559 --> 00:44:17.280 to get the person l in order to provide these 752 00:44:17.320 --> 00:44:19.360 services to the students as we have an influx of 753 00:44:19.400 --> 00:44:24.320 them coming into the school districts. Right, and remember this 754 00:44:24.360 --> 00:44:27.519 isn't just one language. It's not everybody coming across the 755 00:44:27.559 --> 00:44:31.079 border speaks say Chinese, and they would need Chinese to 756 00:44:31.159 --> 00:44:34.039 English translators and people who could be effectively teaching them 757 00:44:34.079 --> 00:44:36.960 how to well make English a primary or at least 758 00:44:36.960 --> 00:44:40.400 secondary language. These are folks that speak multiple languages because 759 00:44:40.400 --> 00:44:42.519 they come from the four corners of the globe. How 760 00:44:42.559 --> 00:44:45.679 are you going to find enough translators in one school district, 761 00:44:45.760 --> 00:44:48.639 let alone all of the thousands of various school districts 762 00:44:48.639 --> 00:44:54.000 we've got across the state. A total of seventy one thousand, 763 00:44:54.119 --> 00:44:57.880 seven hundred and sixty six of these ell students English 764 00:44:57.960 --> 00:45:02.519 Language learners, which were our specialized education in learning English 765 00:45:03.440 --> 00:45:07.000 as a second language that would be the During the 766 00:45:07.079 --> 00:45:10.519 twenty twenty twenty one school year, the number jumped from 767 00:45:10.599 --> 00:45:14.000 seventy one thousand, seventy seven hundred and sixty six to 768 00:45:14.440 --> 00:45:17.159 ninety nine thousand, eight hundred and ninety nine for the 769 00:45:17.239 --> 00:45:20.599 twenty twenty three twenty four school year, a forty percent 770 00:45:20.960 --> 00:45:25.760 jump in just three years. They say out of Pennsylvania 771 00:45:25.880 --> 00:45:29.239 five hundred school district the review of the records identified 772 00:45:29.239 --> 00:45:32.960 that sixty two experienced a one hundred percent increase of 773 00:45:33.079 --> 00:45:36.159 non English language students between twenty one and twenty four. 774 00:45:36.599 --> 00:45:39.679 Another sixty eight districts experience and increase of at least 775 00:45:39.840 --> 00:45:46.000 fifty percent. City has made the news of late Charleroy 776 00:45:46.119 --> 00:45:49.199 Area School District. It's been a total of one hundred 777 00:45:49.199 --> 00:45:52.119 and five thousand on English learners in twenty twenty one 778 00:45:52.199 --> 00:45:55.199 school year. That number is now five hundred and five 779 00:45:55.320 --> 00:45:58.199 thousand for the twenty four to twenty five school year. 780 00:46:00.000 --> 00:46:02.800 Similar to what's happened in Springfield, Charloi is percentage of 781 00:46:02.800 --> 00:46:06.800 elementary school students requiring English language classes in the low 782 00:46:06.920 --> 00:46:09.360 single digits only a few years ago. Now that figure 783 00:46:09.360 --> 00:46:12.559 has reached thirty five percent, according to research by The 784 00:46:12.559 --> 00:46:16.440 New York Times. And it's you know, the thing is, 785 00:46:16.480 --> 00:46:21.039 this is almost overnight. How do you ramp up the 786 00:46:21.119 --> 00:46:25.000 number of employees to treat teach these English language learning 787 00:46:25.039 --> 00:46:27.159 students in such a short period of time. Where does 788 00:46:27.199 --> 00:46:30.840 the money come from? As for Charleroi had seen more 789 00:46:30.920 --> 00:46:37.599 than eleven hundred percent one percent increased in the number 790 00:46:37.639 --> 00:46:43.000 of English learners since twenty twenty one. Eighteen learners in 791 00:46:43.039 --> 00:46:45.599 the city's school district in the twenty twenty one school 792 00:46:45.679 --> 00:46:48.000 year that is now two hundred and twenty three for 793 00:46:48.039 --> 00:46:51.800 the current school year. Not a very big city, they say. 794 00:46:51.800 --> 00:46:54.400 The vast majority of those English learners there are Haitian 795 00:46:54.519 --> 00:46:59.119 Creole speakers. Do you know anybody that speaks Haitian Creole 796 00:47:03.679 --> 00:47:07.159 not a predominant language, reflecting the problem with finding people 797 00:47:07.159 --> 00:47:10.920 who can do the translating and the teaching. Not the 798 00:47:10.920 --> 00:47:14.079 only Pennsylvania community, Charleroi that's having a problem with this. 799 00:47:14.199 --> 00:47:16.920 The Shaller Area School District had a four hundred and 800 00:47:16.960 --> 00:47:23.000 sixty six percent increase in the EL population over three years. 801 00:47:23.559 --> 00:47:26.039 In the Schipvenburg's Area School District, the number of EL 802 00:47:26.079 --> 00:47:28.639 students at the same time rose from forty six to 803 00:47:28.639 --> 00:47:30.599 one hundred and seventy five. That's a two hundred and 804 00:47:30.639 --> 00:47:34.519 eighty percent increase, And again these are not big school districts. 805 00:47:36.480 --> 00:47:42.880 The largest district in the state, Philadelphia School District one, 806 00:47:42.920 --> 00:47:45.800 from sixteen thousand, five hundred and thirty of these students 807 00:47:45.800 --> 00:47:48.519 to twenty two thousand, three hundred and thirty seven over 808 00:47:48.519 --> 00:47:52.840 the same period, an increase of nearly seven thousand non 809 00:47:52.920 --> 00:48:02.079 English speaking students in a mere three years. Public records 810 00:48:02.079 --> 00:48:06.000 requests the DCN afterview the English learner expenses of sixteen 811 00:48:06.079 --> 00:48:11.079 school districts. On average, the additional cost three thousand, four 812 00:48:11.199 --> 00:48:17.840 hundred and eighty three dollars per student, and based on 813 00:48:17.880 --> 00:48:20.079 this average, the estimate of the influx of students could 814 00:48:20.079 --> 00:48:23.960 be costing taxpayers over ninety seven million dollars each year. 815 00:48:25.360 --> 00:48:25.679 Huh. 816 00:48:25.719 --> 00:48:27.280 And I note that we do have a whole bunch 817 00:48:27.360 --> 00:48:30.280 of tax levies on the ballot for this fall. Lots 818 00:48:30.280 --> 00:48:32.719 of local school districts struggling. Some want to build buildings, 819 00:48:32.760 --> 00:48:35.000 some are just trying to keep just tread water and 820 00:48:35.039 --> 00:48:37.480 stay where they are. You're gonna have a choice whether 821 00:48:37.519 --> 00:48:39.320 you want to give the school districts additional money. But 822 00:48:39.360 --> 00:48:40.800 I'm just going to tell you right now, I do 823 00:48:40.880 --> 00:48:43.519 not believe that the state of Ohio and the local 824 00:48:43.559 --> 00:48:47.159 school districts are immune from this English language learner problem. 825 00:48:47.840 --> 00:48:50.440 It's just not widely reported here, I guess, because the 826 00:48:50.480 --> 00:48:52.519 statistics aren't nearly as bad as the ones that have 827 00:48:52.719 --> 00:48:56.400 been revealed in this report regarding Pennsylvania schools. But just 828 00:48:56.480 --> 00:49:01.039 one little, you know, snapshot of one area of our 829 00:49:01.079 --> 00:49:05.800 economy and one critically important area, because the more resources 830 00:49:05.880 --> 00:49:09.000 are spent just to get the children to know English 831 00:49:09.039 --> 00:49:12.719 so they can learn the materials, that means less resources 832 00:49:12.719 --> 00:49:20.400 focused on teaching United States citizens corp learning functions like well, reading, writing, 833 00:49:20.400 --> 00:49:29.039 and arithmetic. The other the thing they pointed out in 834 00:49:29.039 --> 00:49:32.719 the article, the unique problem with this influx is that 835 00:49:32.760 --> 00:49:36.039 many of the English language learners enroll and then leave 836 00:49:36.199 --> 00:49:40.159 within the academic year, leaving the school districts with funds 837 00:49:40.159 --> 00:49:44.920 allocated to English learners well wasted, and the ell staff 838 00:49:44.960 --> 00:49:47.599 on payroll and no longer needed at least for some 839 00:49:47.760 --> 00:49:50.320 percentage of the kids who sign up for the school 840 00:49:50.360 --> 00:49:52.280 district in the school year and then just take off, 841 00:49:53.119 --> 00:49:58.159 probably to some unknown destination not tracked by our government, 842 00:49:58.719 --> 00:50:00.679 which worries me because we you know, there's a huge 843 00:50:00.719 --> 00:50:03.599 problem with human trafficking as a consequence of the open 844 00:50:03.639 --> 00:50:06.039 border six sixteen fifty five cares of THETALKX station bill. 845 00:50:06.400 --> 00:50:08.239 Hang on, buddy, you don't mind holding for a moment, 846 00:50:08.280 --> 00:50:09.639 I'll get your call. And at first I want to 847 00:50:09.639 --> 00:50:12.079 strongly recommend getting in touch with Fast and Pro Roofing 848 00:50:12.119 --> 00:50:14.960 for the free roof inspection as a do it before wintertime. 849 00:50:15.000 --> 00:50:17.840 Why not, because you know wintertime ice dams can be 850 00:50:17.880 --> 00:50:20.880 a problem, and if your gutters are all clogged up, 851 00:50:20.920 --> 00:50:23.400 that's going to really exacerbate the problem. So you can 852 00:50:23.440 --> 00:50:25.639 rely on fast and protein not only get those gutters clean, 853 00:50:25.719 --> 00:50:29.320 but also installed gutter guards or maybe get brand new 854 00:50:29.360 --> 00:50:31.719 gutters all around the house. They do everything when it 855 00:50:31.719 --> 00:50:33.960 comes to roofing work, and they do a better job 856 00:50:34.000 --> 00:50:37.559 than anybody. I can't imagine better more professional roofers and 857 00:50:37.840 --> 00:50:40.440 a more honest roofing company you cannot find. They are 858 00:50:40.519 --> 00:50:43.119 truly one hundred percent honest, never trying to say anything 859 00:50:43.159 --> 00:50:45.800 you do not need, so call for the free inspection. 860 00:50:45.920 --> 00:50:47.440 The best thing can happen. They come down off the 861 00:50:47.519 --> 00:50:49.760 roof and Nope, nothing's wrong, and give you an idea 862 00:50:49.760 --> 00:50:52.760 how much life your roof has left in it. Beyond that, though, 863 00:50:52.760 --> 00:50:54.840 if there is a quote, it's going to be a great, great, 864 00:50:55.400 --> 00:50:58.920 appropriately priced quote. Fair and ethical, of course it will be, 865 00:50:59.079 --> 00:51:01.679 and you will be impressed with the work. They take 866 00:51:01.719 --> 00:51:03.800 great care of you your home and they'll leave the 867 00:51:03.840 --> 00:51:06.239 place cleaner than when they got there.

Welcome to the Morning Show. 881 00:51:41.199 --> 00:51:44.239 Hello, Brian, how are you today? You're doing sounds like 882 00:51:44.280 --> 00:51:45.039 you're doing great. 883 00:51:45.719 --> 00:51:47.639 I'm hanging in there. My friend is supposed to get 884 00:51:47.679 --> 00:51:51.599 additional results on the status of my lymphoma and that 885 00:51:51.920 --> 00:51:54.199 it looks like it's still what they call low grade. 886 00:51:54.239 --> 00:51:56.840 But I am having more and more symptoms last week. 887 00:51:56.880 --> 00:51:59.760 I woke up this morning night sweats, what a pain 888 00:51:59.800 --> 00:52:01.719 in the butt, and they're getting worse. So I know 889 00:52:01.880 --> 00:52:04.760 it's my lymphoma's back. There's no question about that. It's 890 00:52:04.800 --> 00:52:06.920 just a question of what my treatment's going to be. 891 00:52:07.000 --> 00:52:09.480 So maybe I'll find out today or tomorrow, but I 892 00:52:09.519 --> 00:52:11.639 appreciate it. Thanks for asking. I know a lot of 893 00:52:11.679 --> 00:52:13.800 people have been asking, so God bless each and every 894 00:52:13.800 --> 00:52:15.960 one of you for the inquiry. What's on your mind today? 895 00:52:16.000 --> 00:52:16.519 My friend? 896 00:52:17.679 --> 00:52:20.960 Hey, a lot of people I work with. I work 897 00:52:21.039 --> 00:52:27.760 with India, African, a couple other different nationalities. I can't 898 00:52:27.760 --> 00:52:32.360 even telling how to say. So what I did is 899 00:52:32.440 --> 00:52:35.880 I started setting them up with John Denver Sonny and 900 00:52:36.000 --> 00:52:41.320 Share on YouTube and let them listen to that and 901 00:52:41.639 --> 00:52:44.639 give them different fans to listen to. And it's working. 902 00:52:45.639 --> 00:52:50.760 It's amazing how well they're picking up the language. 903 00:52:50.679 --> 00:52:51.880 Just from listening to music. 904 00:52:53.360 --> 00:52:57.880 Music is the answer. Yeah, John Denver is the key one, 905 00:52:57.960 --> 00:53:00.599 and then the Beatles. I hope them up with all 906 00:53:00.679 --> 00:53:03.760 kinds of different ones. I've done it to about eight 907 00:53:03.840 --> 00:53:06.159 of them there, and I've talked about six of them, 908 00:53:06.199 --> 00:53:08.800 and they like the music. They listen to it. I 909 00:53:09.000 --> 00:53:12.559 understand them better. They're doing it with their kids and 910 00:53:12.599 --> 00:53:16.239 their friends. So you know, the seventies music is going 911 00:53:16.320 --> 00:53:17.360 to be rocking back. 912 00:53:19.840 --> 00:53:23.679 It works, man, Okay, okay, I am not arguing with you, Bill, 913 00:53:23.719 --> 00:53:25.800 but here I am. I'm thinking of myself, all right. 914 00:53:26.039 --> 00:53:29.559 PLoP me down in China or Russia or pick a country. 915 00:53:29.559 --> 00:53:31.119 I don't know the language. I mean, you could throw 916 00:53:31.119 --> 00:53:33.039 me in Germany, and even though I took five hours 917 00:53:33.079 --> 00:53:37.199 Germany and Germany and college, I would struggle mightily. But 918 00:53:37.400 --> 00:53:40.920 if I started listening to their music, you know, contextually, 919 00:53:41.320 --> 00:53:44.000 what are they talking about? You know, I got you, babe, 920 00:53:44.039 --> 00:53:45.800 I got you. But what does that mean? When you're 921 00:53:45.840 --> 00:53:49.800 hearing that language and you don't understand it, Go ahead. 922 00:53:50.119 --> 00:53:53.239 Right, But it's making you say the words better? 923 00:53:53.440 --> 00:53:54.000 Okay. 924 00:53:54.039 --> 00:53:57.360 It's like it's like when I tell them turn on 925 00:53:57.519 --> 00:54:02.199 talk radio, listen to this station fifty five KRC, and 926 00:54:02.239 --> 00:54:04.519 try to say some of the words that the man 927 00:54:04.760 --> 00:54:08.960 says back to you, like weather and traffic on the. 928 00:54:09.159 --> 00:54:09.679 On the ten. 929 00:54:10.880 --> 00:54:15.400 Yeah, you know, sy say anything you can keep repeating 930 00:54:16.199 --> 00:54:19.639 and you know it'll work. And and by gosh, there's 931 00:54:19.639 --> 00:54:22.159 probably about four of them that are really figuring it up. 932 00:54:22.559 --> 00:54:25.800 They're getting interested in their friends, and I, you know, 933 00:54:26.079 --> 00:54:29.159 I have to say they're good citizens. I mean, I 934 00:54:29.159 --> 00:54:33.400 don't know they're trying at least, but you know, bring 935 00:54:33.400 --> 00:54:37.960 back the seventies music because it's uh, it's out there 936 00:54:38.000 --> 00:54:40.199 for him. And that's what the teachers probably need to 937 00:54:40.360 --> 00:54:43.480 use with all the school kids, you know, just use 938 00:54:43.559 --> 00:54:48.360 some kind of easy listening to language and uh, you know, 939 00:54:49.000 --> 00:54:49.800 and work for. 940 00:54:50.159 --> 00:54:54.519 And and I suppose musicians and bands that actually articulate 941 00:54:54.639 --> 00:54:57.960 the words clearly so they can be understood. Sure that is, 942 00:54:58.440 --> 00:55:00.599 Let's Zepplin for example, would not be a good man 943 00:55:00.760 --> 00:55:03.159 to turn them onto in terms of, you know, articulating 944 00:55:03.199 --> 00:55:03.480 the world. 945 00:55:03.599 --> 00:55:05.760 I tried to tell them about PAINK Floyd, but that 946 00:55:05.920 --> 00:55:06.519 didn't work. 947 00:55:08.280 --> 00:55:11.599 Keep trying. Oh, maybe scare up step over to tool 948 00:55:11.920 --> 00:55:14.039 you know that. I don't know if that'll work either, 949 00:55:14.079 --> 00:55:16.280 but at least it's good music that's hilarious. But I 950 00:55:16.320 --> 00:55:20.519 appreciate the effort. And I suppose every little bit counts. 951 00:55:20.559 --> 00:55:24.239 If you're getting English language instructions someplace, you can supplement 952 00:55:24.280 --> 00:55:27.079 that with that brilliant idea about just listening to music 953 00:55:27.559 --> 00:55:29.960 pick your own era. Although I would agree that based 954 00:55:30.000 --> 00:55:32.760 on my conversation last week with David Chudwyin on his 955 00:55:32.760 --> 00:55:36.679 book The Magical Decades sixty five to seventy five, if 956 00:55:36.719 --> 00:55:38.880 you notice they still play a whole lot of music 957 00:55:38.920 --> 00:55:43.679 from that particular era, a whole lot why, I guess 958 00:55:44.119 --> 00:55:46.760 sound like my dad and everybody else's parent because all 959 00:55:46.800 --> 00:55:51.199 the new music sucks. Teller Swift six twenty five. If 960 00:55:51.280 --> 00:55:54.480 you find meres Detalkstasian local Stores five one, three, seven, four, 961 00:55:54.559 --> 00:55:56.559 nine fifty five hundred, eight hundred and eighty two three 962 00:55:56.639 --> 00:55:58.880 talks save money and get your car fixed for less 963 00:55:59.320 --> 00:56:02.239 and get your car. That's what Foreign Exchange is all about, 964 00:56:02.360 --> 00:56:05.159 charging less than the dealer and giving you great satisfaction 965 00:56:05.199 --> 00:56:07.400 that you've repaired your car and you didn't pay the 966 00:56:07.400 --> 00:56:10.000 outrageous dealer costs to do so. Foreign Exchange has been 967 00:56:10.000 --> 00:56:12.400 doing this for years and years and years. I can't 968 00:56:12.400 --> 00:56:15.559 calculate how much I've saved, but I know I've saved 969 00:56:15.559 --> 00:56:18.119 more than thousands of dollars just based upon my oil 970 00:56:18.199 --> 00:56:21.119 changes alone. That's a two hundred plus dollars savings every 971 00:56:21.280 --> 00:56:24.239 under warranty oil change I get. But all's for the 972 00:56:24.280 --> 00:56:26.519 out of warranty work that's been done on all of 973 00:56:26.559 --> 00:56:28.800 our cars because they're all imported. Say what you want 974 00:56:28.800 --> 00:56:32.159 about that, that's our decision. Lots and lots is our 975 00:56:32.199 --> 00:56:34.599 Honda's had a lot of repairs. And my daughter's car 976 00:56:34.639 --> 00:56:37.079 has been over to Foreign Exchange, I should say her 977 00:56:37.119 --> 00:56:39.119 late car. She actually got hit by a deer the 978 00:56:39.159 --> 00:56:42.039 other day, a totaler car. She's okay, but they kept 979 00:56:42.039 --> 00:56:44.400 the Mazda running pretty well. Now it's dead and she's 980 00:56:44.400 --> 00:56:46.079 going to get another one. And probably she'll probably take 981 00:56:46.079 --> 00:56:47.880 you to foreign exchange. I know what she's looking at 982 00:56:48.000 --> 00:56:51.440 right now anyway. But BOSH certified business. They have excellent 983 00:56:51.480 --> 00:56:55.639 customer service.

You saw that SpaceX rocket 1000 00:57:40.119 --> 00:57:42.960 booster successfully landing. That is the most amazing thing to me. 1001 00:57:43.079 --> 00:57:46.360 We live in absolutely amazing times technologically, amid all the 1002 00:57:46.360 --> 00:57:48.000 gloom and the doom and the problems we face in 1003 00:57:48.039 --> 00:57:52.079 the world. That's just seeing that thing just land and 1004 00:57:52.119 --> 00:57:56.119 be caught by those arms in that that that I 1005 00:57:56.159 --> 00:58:00.400 guess it was the launch station or whatever. And anyway, 1006 00:58:00.960 --> 00:58:02.920 I just find that to be absolutely amazing. We haven't 1007 00:58:02.960 --> 00:58:06.599 seen that. Take a look at it. It's just mind blowing. Anyway, 1008 00:58:06.599 --> 00:58:08.119 without further do this is back to the local stories. 1009 00:58:08.440 --> 00:58:10.840 Victim of fatal shooting in Avadel has now been identified. 1010 00:58:10.880 --> 00:58:13.039 Police responded to reports of a shooting the eight hundred 1011 00:58:13.039 --> 00:58:15.559 block of Hutchins Avenue at nine pm Saturday night. Man 1012 00:58:15.599 --> 00:58:18.559 taking the UC Medical Center pronounced dead since I police 1013 00:58:18.599 --> 00:58:21.800 identified him forty eight year old del Rico Hill. No 1014 00:58:21.920 --> 00:58:24.360 idea what led to the shooting. They haven't released anything yet, 1015 00:58:24.400 --> 00:58:26.920 perhaps unknown at this point. It is an ongoing investigation. 1016 00:58:27.039 --> 00:58:29.440 Three five two thirty forty is crime stoppers number. If 1017 00:58:29.440 --> 00:58:34.599 you have any info on that one, see here. Greg Lansman, sorry, 1018 00:58:35.239 --> 00:58:39.639 I'm sorry violated the Stock Act because he didn't prefer 1019 00:58:40.119 --> 00:58:43.599 report his stock trades, which Stock Act requires you to 1020 00:58:43.599 --> 00:58:45.599 report them within forty five days. He waited about a 1021 00:58:45.679 --> 00:58:49.039 year and a half or so. It won't happen again. 1022 00:58:52.199 --> 00:58:54.440 Some of the stocks Landsman report were bought or sold 1023 00:58:54.480 --> 00:58:56.119 as far back as the month he took office in 1024 00:58:56.199 --> 00:58:58.239 January A twenty twenty three well out of the forty 1025 00:58:58.280 --> 00:59:01.920 five day window, ethics complaint was filed. Todd zenz Er 1026 00:59:01.960 --> 00:59:05.440 filed the ethics complaint on that one. But it's probably 1027 00:59:05.480 --> 00:59:07.480 nothing's going to happen, He says. He didn't know what 1028 00:59:07.559 --> 00:59:09.280 was being traded. He had nothing to do with it, 1029 00:59:09.360 --> 00:59:14.800 but he did make trades a sizeable amount. The transactions 1030 00:59:14.920 --> 00:59:17.320 reported worth a total between two hundred and three and 1031 00:59:17.360 --> 00:59:19.960 one hundred and six million two hundred three thousand and 1032 00:59:20.000 --> 00:59:22.320 one hundred and six million. They said they were part 1033 00:59:22.360 --> 00:59:25.639 of a fund Landsman is with Rockefeller Capital Management or 1034 00:59:26.119 --> 00:59:31.719 or part of his wife Sarah Landsman. Ira investments include 1035 00:59:31.760 --> 00:59:35.280 interesting choices because I think he is anti pharmaceutical company 1036 00:59:35.320 --> 00:59:38.360 in oil, well Eli Lilly and Exon Mobil, a couple 1037 00:59:38.360 --> 00:59:47.079 of stocks he was trading in Chatigan and according to 1038 00:59:47.119 --> 00:59:50.239 Scott Warbon and the enquire of the reporting he's he said, well, 1039 00:59:50.519 --> 00:59:53.880 not gonna really probably result in anything. Each violation is 1040 00:59:53.920 --> 00:59:56.960 a two hundred dollars fine. No member of Congress has 1041 00:59:57.000 --> 00:59:59.719 ever had to pay the fine, since no Stock Act 1042 00:59:59.760 --> 01:00:03.559 viol relation charges have ever been prosecuted. That's according to 1043 01:00:03.639 --> 01:00:06.480 the vice president, general counsel and senior director of the Washington, 1044 01:00:06.559 --> 01:00:12.960 TC based watchdog group Campaign Legal Center, which advocates for 1045 01:00:13.000 --> 01:00:17.039 an absolute outright ban on congressional stock trading. Interestingly enough, 1046 01:00:19.800 --> 01:00:22.119 they got shenanigans going over Xavier High School, where a 1047 01:00:22.119 --> 01:00:24.519 teacher fired after the school became aware of what they 1048 01:00:24.559 --> 01:00:29.119 described as a possible boundary violation with a student. Courting 1049 01:00:29.159 --> 01:00:32.039 the school's confirmation on Friday to The Enquirer, the care 1050 01:00:32.079 --> 01:00:33.760 of the student and his family remained the school's top 1051 01:00:33.800 --> 01:00:35.840 priority during this most difficult time. Courting to the school's 1052 01:00:35.840 --> 01:00:40.079 official statement, let's see here, Springfield Township Police said the 1053 01:00:40.079 --> 01:00:44.719 school notified investigators last Wednesday about possible inappropriate contact and 1054 01:00:44.760 --> 01:00:48.800 communication involving a staff member and a student. Department report 1055 01:00:48.800 --> 01:00:51.000 of the officers actively working to determine if a crime 1056 01:00:51.039 --> 01:00:53.199 has been committed in school, officials said the employee who 1057 01:00:53.239 --> 01:00:56.800 was terminated is instructed not to contact any of the school, students, 1058 01:00:56.840 --> 01:01:04.039 faculty or staff. Three people including a juvenile hospitalized Saturday 1059 01:01:04.199 --> 01:01:07.480 and off shooting. It happened in mount Airy corna since 1060 01:01:07.480 --> 01:01:10.320 a police shooting took place about quarter to three in 1061 01:01:10.360 --> 01:01:13.599 the afternoon at Shady Miss Lane in Richwell Court. CPD 1062 01:01:13.880 --> 01:01:16.039 said the police believe three victims were in a black 1063 01:01:16.079 --> 01:01:19.719 Ford focus when it happened. Victim grazed in the head, 1064 01:01:19.760 --> 01:01:21.599 one of them was one was shot in the stomach, 1065 01:01:21.639 --> 01:01:26.119 the other shot in the thigh. They called the injury 1066 01:01:26.239 --> 01:01:28.719 serious but stable. Two of the victims taking a UC 1067 01:01:28.840 --> 01:01:31.159 medical center. Of the juvenile taking this since a children's 1068 01:01:31.679 --> 01:01:34.039 Police have not said if they have any suspects in 1069 01:01:34.079 --> 01:01:37.559 the shooting. I should. I'm sure Crime Stoppers again would 1070 01:01:37.599 --> 01:01:39.599 love to be hearing from you if you have a 1071 01:01:39.679 --> 01:01:42.400 tip that could lead to an arrest. Three five, two 1072 01:01:42.440 --> 01:01:46.239 thirty forty Cigarette Moore coming up, and remember Christopher Smith 1073 01:01:46.360 --> 01:01:47.800 is going to join the program a little bit earlier. 1074 01:01:47.800 --> 01:01:50.079 Wanted some extra time today. We'll hear from the vice 1075 01:01:50.119 --> 01:01:53.079 mayor former vice mayor at seven twenty and then Adam 1076 01:01:53.159 --> 01:01:55.159 Kaylor is going to be in studio all during the 1077 01:01:55.199 --> 01:01:58.159 eight o'clock hour.

Moving away from whatever I was talking about 1126 01:04:19.599 --> 01:04:22.440 to something else I wasn't talking about. The market manipulation 1127 01:04:22.519 --> 01:04:26.840 the government engages in is really really crazy. Trying to 1128 01:04:26.840 --> 01:04:28.320 get you to do something you don't want to do, 1129 01:04:28.440 --> 01:04:32.599 has some absolutely outrageous outcomes. And of course, you know, 1130 01:04:32.639 --> 01:04:35.239 I don't like electric vehicles for a whole host of reasons, 1131 01:04:35.239 --> 01:04:37.719 most notably they don't really do anything to protect the environment, 1132 01:04:37.760 --> 01:04:41.559 and they also bolster the Chinese Communist Party. But moving 1133 01:04:41.599 --> 01:04:45.559 away from that, the manipulation offering dangling carrots from the 1134 01:04:45.559 --> 01:04:47.920 federal government basically tax payer dollars to try to get 1135 01:04:47.920 --> 01:04:52.760 you to buy something you otherwise wouldn't buy, and it's 1136 01:04:52.800 --> 01:04:55.920 causing a problem for resale values of electric vehicles, which 1137 01:04:55.960 --> 01:05:02.760 have dropped dramatically in prices. Dealer lots full of unsold 1138 01:05:02.800 --> 01:05:08.199 brand new electric vehicles. You don't want them. Under the 1139 01:05:08.239 --> 01:05:11.559 Biden Harris administration rules these that you're gonna end up 1140 01:05:11.599 --> 01:05:13.480 having to buy them. The dealers have to sell like 1141 01:05:13.559 --> 01:05:16.679 two electric vehicles for every one in turtle combustion engine 1142 01:05:17.320 --> 01:05:22.079 engine they sell, and that means that the well, they're 1143 01:05:22.119 --> 01:05:24.199 not able to achieve their goals because you go in 1144 01:05:24.320 --> 01:05:26.119 you don't want to buy one of the electric vehicles, 1145 01:05:26.119 --> 01:05:29.039 meaning they're dropping the prices a whole lot more on 1146 01:05:29.239 --> 01:05:33.599 new electric vehicles. Everybody's around slashing prices on the new 1147 01:05:33.599 --> 01:05:35.719 models in an effort to sell them. Discounts on new 1148 01:05:35.760 --> 01:05:41.400 evs have helped prop up the flagging sales, but this 1149 01:05:41.559 --> 01:05:44.880 massive amount of discounts has caused the prices for pre 1150 01:05:45.000 --> 01:05:51.519 owned electric vehicles to drop substantially as well. Apparently, in September, 1151 01:05:51.559 --> 01:05:53.559 the average selling price of a three year old EV 1152 01:05:53.880 --> 01:05:58.559 twenty eight dollars less than that of a gas engine 1153 01:05:58.639 --> 01:06:02.079 vehicle of the same age. And I have familiarity with 1154 01:06:02.119 --> 01:06:04.199 this because, as I mentioned a moment a few moments ago, 1155 01:06:04.239 --> 01:06:05.960 my daughter had a deer jump out in front of 1156 01:06:05.960 --> 01:06:08.159 her little Mazda and it totaled the car. I mean 1157 01:06:08.159 --> 01:06:10.159 it was not her fault. No one's holding her blame. 1158 01:06:10.239 --> 01:06:12.400 She was insided driving her down the road mining her 1159 01:06:12.400 --> 01:06:15.519 own business on a rural road, and a deer literally 1160 01:06:15.559 --> 01:06:18.239 committed suicide on her car. And she said, was in 1161 01:06:18.280 --> 01:06:20.639 that thing, and thank god she was not harmed, but 1162 01:06:20.679 --> 01:06:22.559 it was did enough damage to damage it. Guess what 1163 01:06:22.840 --> 01:06:24.880 my daughter is now in the market for a new car, 1164 01:06:25.199 --> 01:06:27.880 Not any brand new car, but the replacement car. She's 1165 01:06:27.920 --> 01:06:29.679 looking at used cars thinking they're going to be a 1166 01:06:29.719 --> 01:06:33.519 better valuating Lord Almighty, the used car internal combustion engine 1167 01:06:33.559 --> 01:06:38.599 market is outrageous, really expensive. Why because the demand is 1168 01:06:38.639 --> 01:06:42.320 there for them. People want an internal combustion engine car. 1169 01:06:42.360 --> 01:06:44.840 It's supplying to man limited number out there. The prices 1170 01:06:44.920 --> 01:06:51.440 go up, duh. Anyway, the EV's got a twenty five 1171 01:06:51.480 --> 01:06:55.280 percent drop from the start of twenty twenty three. The 1172 01:06:55.320 --> 01:06:59.639 sharp fall in the price of pre owned EV's stands 1173 01:06:59.679 --> 01:07:03.119 in car contrast to the broader used car market, where yes, 1174 01:07:03.199 --> 01:07:07.599 internal combustion engine cars are really expensive used. In fact, 1175 01:07:07.639 --> 01:07:09.599 I did a comparison of a couple of the different models. 1176 01:07:09.599 --> 01:07:12.840 She was looking at a used vehicle in her category 1177 01:07:12.880 --> 01:07:17.199 market just a couple thousand dollars less than a brand 1178 01:07:17.280 --> 01:07:22.800 new one off the lot, And of course, people who 1179 01:07:22.800 --> 01:07:25.280 paid a premium for the evs before the prices started 1180 01:07:25.360 --> 01:07:29.800 dropping are underwater on what they owe, creating a bit 1181 01:07:29.840 --> 01:07:32.400 of a problem for them financially. Within the past year, 1182 01:07:32.440 --> 01:07:35.400 the average list price for you used Tesla Model three 1183 01:07:35.519 --> 01:07:38.800 and Model Y, apparently the most popular models, dropped twenty 1184 01:07:38.840 --> 01:07:45.599 five percent, but buyer interest in evs is subsiding. Automakers 1185 01:07:45.719 --> 01:07:52.119 now becoming more aggressive with promoting the new models, making 1186 01:07:52.159 --> 01:07:57.559 the new models as affordable as the used electric vehicle market. 1187 01:07:57.800 --> 01:08:00.800 Some brands lowering payments on new evs, applying the seventy 1188 01:08:00.800 --> 01:08:05.760 five hundred dollars tax credit directly to least electric vehicles. Consequently, 1189 01:08:05.800 --> 01:08:08.480 the monthly payment for an EV has fallen from about 1190 01:08:08.559 --> 01:08:11.360 nine hundred and fifty bucks last year at the beginning 1191 01:08:11.400 --> 01:08:13.880 to about five hundred and eighty two dollars in August 1192 01:08:13.880 --> 01:08:17.239 of this year. According to Edmonds, that means it's compartable 1193 01:08:17.279 --> 01:08:19.279 to what one would pay every month on a loan 1194 01:08:19.399 --> 01:08:22.279 for a well used EV, which is about twenty eight 1195 01:08:22.279 --> 01:08:25.119 thousand dollars. Would you rather have a brand new one 1196 01:08:25.159 --> 01:08:27.720 with the payment of five eighty two or a used 1197 01:08:27.760 --> 01:08:30.359 EV with a payment of five eighty two. That's the point. 1198 01:08:30.600 --> 01:08:32.800 The answer is no, I'll buy the new one rather 1199 01:08:32.840 --> 01:08:35.760 than the used one, meaning the price of used EV's 1200 01:08:35.880 --> 01:08:39.439 is dropping even more. New federal tax credit is also 1201 01:08:39.560 --> 01:08:43.840 in place market manipulation for used EV purchases. It's four 1202 01:08:43.920 --> 01:08:48.359 thousand dollars, but it only applies to electric cars selling 1203 01:08:48.399 --> 01:08:52.560 for under twenty five thousand dollars, forcing dealers to write 1204 01:08:52.560 --> 01:08:55.079 cut the price of the used EV to allow people 1205 01:08:55.079 --> 01:08:58.720 to qualify for the four thousand dollars tax credit. Manipulate here, 1206 01:08:58.800 --> 01:09:05.399 manipulate there, manipulate, manipulate everywhere. Edmund's study of EV trade 1207 01:09:05.439 --> 01:09:08.479 in value showed that in August, owners on average ode 1208 01:09:09.319 --> 01:09:12.720 about ten thousand dollars more than the car was worth. 1209 01:09:15.039 --> 01:09:18.720 And the rise in electric car leasing going back to 1210 01:09:18.760 --> 01:09:21.680 that tax credit being rolled into a lease deal seventy 1211 01:09:21.680 --> 01:09:24.039 five hundred dollars. They say it's poorting out the obvious 1212 01:09:24.119 --> 01:09:29.279 longer term implifications. Car gurus Kevin Roberts, he's the head 1213 01:09:29.279 --> 01:09:32.760 of the industry Industry Insights that car Gurus, quote by 1214 01:09:32.800 --> 01:09:36.399 The Wall Street Journal, said well, there's no positive way 1215 01:09:36.439 --> 01:09:41.000 to put this. The problem is those leased vehicles are 1216 01:09:41.039 --> 01:09:43.640 coming back because well, if you lease them two to 1217 01:09:43.720 --> 01:09:46.079 three year lease term, they're all going to end up 1218 01:09:46.079 --> 01:09:49.520 bringing coming back into the dealers, putting more downward pressure 1219 01:09:49.560 --> 01:09:56.920 on prices. So it's a lose lose situation here. And 1220 01:09:58.600 --> 01:10:01.239 the only reason apparently this is I having some little 1221 01:10:01.279 --> 01:10:03.279 bit of impact on people's desire to buy an IV 1222 01:10:03.600 --> 01:10:06.239 because there's so much free money flowing into them. People 1223 01:10:06.239 --> 01:10:07.560 are like, ah, well, I'll go ahead and give it 1224 01:10:07.600 --> 01:10:09.920 a shot, and they find out what it's like in 1225 01:10:09.920 --> 01:10:11.920 the winter time trying to hold a charge on that thing, 1226 01:10:11.960 --> 01:10:14.560 and then maybe you know, they'll get an internal combustion 1227 01:10:14.640 --> 01:10:17.439 engine next time around. Don't know. But all of this 1228 01:10:18.159 --> 01:10:20.920 brought about by manipulation, forcing you to do something you 1229 01:10:20.920 --> 01:10:23.439 don't want to do, forcing on you a product that 1230 01:10:23.479 --> 01:10:25.680 you do not want, and trying to make it more 1231 01:10:25.720 --> 01:10:30.159 appealing by well throwing your next door neighbors hard earned 1232 01:10:30.159 --> 01:10:34.560 tax dollars at the problem.

Yeah. Sticking with electric vehicles and going back 1260 01:11:52.880 --> 01:11:55.319 to the problems that school districts are facing around this country, 1261 01:11:55.359 --> 01:11:59.920 dealing with the English language learners, in other words, of 1262 01:12:00.119 --> 01:12:02.239 who do not even have English as a second language, 1263 01:12:02.279 --> 01:12:06.319 trying to well learn in schools when they don't speak English. 1264 01:12:06.399 --> 01:12:09.520 That's causing a huge financial problem for schools. I don't 1265 01:12:09.680 --> 01:12:13.199 go back over the details on that, but that's a fact. 1266 01:12:15.520 --> 01:12:17.279 So why are we going to stuff them in electric 1267 01:12:17.319 --> 01:12:20.159 school buses which cost three hundred and seventy five thousand 1268 01:12:20.199 --> 01:12:23.720 dollars apiece, double that of traditional diesel buses and only 1269 01:12:23.760 --> 01:12:25.920 go about one hundred and fifty miles at charge. That 1270 01:12:26.079 --> 01:12:28.920 is in warm weather, don't go even that far when 1271 01:12:28.960 --> 01:12:32.560 it's cold out. Thank you Kamala Harris and the Biden administration. 1272 01:12:32.720 --> 01:12:38.600 She pushed this, the five billion dollar grant program. There'll 1273 01:12:38.600 --> 01:12:41.479 be your tax dollars for the purpose of electrifying the 1274 01:12:41.520 --> 01:12:44.920 nation's school buses, champion by Kamala Harris while she was 1275 01:12:44.960 --> 01:12:47.840 senator and then his vice president. So she owns this 1276 01:12:47.880 --> 01:12:53.359 one to a certain degree. Debt inspiring five billion dollar grant, 1277 01:12:53.479 --> 01:12:57.600 providing Well schools with something that they don't want. Critics 1278 01:12:57.640 --> 01:12:59.399 call it a waste of money. They'll be me included 1279 01:13:00.439 --> 01:13:03.880 highest price tag and also the difficulties of getting vehicles 1280 01:13:03.880 --> 01:13:06.560 into service. So far, three billion dollars in grants of 1281 01:13:06.640 --> 01:13:10.640 rebates have been awarded. That's enough to buy eight thousand 1282 01:13:10.920 --> 01:13:14.680 electric buses. Less than a third of that number have 1283 01:13:14.720 --> 01:13:17.239 actually made it onto the road. Electric buses now make 1284 01:13:17.359 --> 01:13:20.399 up a whopping one percent of the country's fleet of 1285 01:13:20.439 --> 01:13:24.119 four hundred and eighty thousand school buses. Do the math 1286 01:13:24.199 --> 01:13:26.479 on that four hundred and eighty thousand times three hundred 1287 01:13:26.479 --> 01:13:29.359 and seventy five thousand, you get the price tag to 1288 01:13:29.479 --> 01:13:35.119 convert them all to electric. Manufacturers estimate the electric buses 1289 01:13:35.319 --> 01:13:37.840 well aren't fit for about ten percent of school bus 1290 01:13:37.880 --> 01:13:40.439 route has pointed out before, the typical electric bus goes 1291 01:13:40.439 --> 01:13:42.880 about one hundred and forty miles before running out of 1292 01:13:42.920 --> 01:13:48.039 battery power, a lot less than the diesel range, reducing 1293 01:13:48.079 --> 01:13:50.119 it in cold weather, that's less than one hundred and 1294 01:13:50.119 --> 01:13:53.760 forty one hundred and forty miles. One school district quote 1295 01:13:53.760 --> 01:13:55.600 and the reporting on this by the Wall Street Journal 1296 01:13:55.600 --> 01:14:00.760 talking about how they were worried and believe Virginia, fancy 1297 01:14:00.800 --> 01:14:03.880 Gap Virginia. It gets awfully cold, and there's some very 1298 01:14:03.920 --> 01:14:06.479 mountainous roads, and they were wondering on the first run 1299 01:14:06.520 --> 01:14:08.399 whether the bus would actually even make it. They all 1300 01:14:08.399 --> 01:14:10.279 breathed the sigh relief when they actually were able to 1301 01:14:10.279 --> 01:14:15.640 complete the route. A total of fifty five percent of 1302 01:14:15.640 --> 01:14:18.439 school a fifty five school district thirteen percent of the 1303 01:14:18.479 --> 01:14:22.319 total school districts withdrew from the program. Didn't want to 1304 01:14:22.319 --> 01:14:24.800 be a part of it, obviously because of the challenge 1305 01:14:24.800 --> 01:14:28.760 is presented the infrastructure for charging that hasn't been put 1306 01:14:28.800 --> 01:14:32.520 in place either. So congratulations, school district, here's your new bus. 1307 01:14:32.520 --> 01:14:37.600 Where are you gonna charge it? Don't now? According to 1308 01:14:37.600 --> 01:14:43.520 the reporting, Again, the EPA funds and settlement money from 1309 01:14:43.640 --> 01:14:49.520 Volkswagen diesel emission scandal help fund this. Officials, though, waited 1310 01:14:49.560 --> 01:14:52.079 another year to build out charging stations. More than fifty 1311 01:14:52.079 --> 01:14:54.760 buses still on the way to North Carolina to the 1312 01:14:54.880 --> 01:14:59.960 Charlotte Mecklenburg schools. So you go after an ic email, 1313 01:15:00.039 --> 01:15:05.720 manufacturers sue them for reporting we misreporting there in mission standards. 1314 01:15:05.720 --> 01:15:07.760 You get a massive settlement and then they put the 1315 01:15:07.800 --> 01:15:14.800 money toward buses that you don't necessarily want oh Steezeothough Steve, 1316 01:15:14.840 --> 01:15:16.880 Welcome to the program, and happy Monday to you. Thanks 1317 01:15:16.880 --> 01:15:17.319 for calling. 1318 01:15:18.399 --> 01:15:21.119 Hey, Brian, first of all, best of luck with your health. 1319 01:15:21.199 --> 01:15:24.079 I hope all as well. I'm sure it will be appreciate. 1320 01:15:24.119 --> 01:15:25.840 Hopefully you can hopefully you can hear me. 1321 01:15:25.880 --> 01:15:28.319 Okay, I'm hands free on I two seventy five and 1322 01:15:28.359 --> 01:15:30.600 not the two seventy five at Cincinnati, but the one 1323 01:15:30.680 --> 01:15:35.520 hitting into Tampa home got hit not once but twice 1324 01:15:35.720 --> 01:15:36.640 by hurricanes. 1325 01:15:36.680 --> 01:15:38.520 In two weeks, we will know a home. 1326 01:15:39.359 --> 01:15:42.279 You know, eventual retirement place right down here in the 1327 01:15:42.319 --> 01:15:46.119 heart of it all, Saint Petersburg, Saint Pete Beach, Matheira Beach, 1328 01:15:46.159 --> 01:15:50.039 Treasure Island area. So we had water damage on the 1329 01:15:50.079 --> 01:15:53.920 first one, and then I think we are very fortunate 1330 01:15:53.960 --> 01:15:56.159 all note about an hour as far as wind damage, 1331 01:15:56.199 --> 01:15:57.399 A lot of other people weren't. 1332 01:15:57.399 --> 01:16:00.720 But just first first and on the. 1333 01:16:00.680 --> 01:16:04.279 Ground versus what you see on mainstream media requirement regarding 1334 01:16:04.359 --> 01:16:07.319 like SEMA. You know, on TV, you see SEMA. They're here, 1335 01:16:07.359 --> 01:16:10.479 they're helping, you know, their throwing trash away. They're wearing 1336 01:16:10.520 --> 01:16:12.479 FEMA windbreakers and hats. 1337 01:16:12.520 --> 01:16:14.000 Definitely not the case. 1338 01:16:15.399 --> 01:16:17.640 All the all the work down here, and it's a 1339 01:16:17.680 --> 01:16:23.119 Hertilian effort, you know, just Santa's local, state, county volunteers. 1340 01:16:23.319 --> 01:16:25.600 You know, they are busting their you know what I mean, 1341 01:16:26.199 --> 01:16:30.279 just the immensity of what happened is insane. But with 1342 01:16:30.359 --> 01:16:33.880 regards to FEMA. So after Aleen happened, I was up 1343 01:16:33.880 --> 01:16:38.319 that Cincinnati came came right back down. The day after, 1344 01:16:38.680 --> 01:16:40.560 we had gotten about three inches of water in the 1345 01:16:40.600 --> 01:16:44.600 mobile home. Obviously, I looked at it and I said, well, 1346 01:16:44.720 --> 01:16:49.039 you know, so I tore out a thousand feet of flooring, subflooring, 1347 01:16:49.279 --> 01:16:50.399 vapor barrier. 1348 01:16:50.239 --> 01:16:55.239 Insulation, and just just got it out of there right away. 1349 01:16:56.479 --> 01:16:59.560 You know, no flood insurance, you know, just economically didn't 1350 01:16:59.560 --> 01:17:00.000 make sense. 1351 01:17:00.079 --> 01:17:02.800 Were self insured, we had homeowners insurance, so you know, 1352 01:17:02.920 --> 01:17:07.800 tornado fire, hurricane win damage, et cetera. Right, So two 1353 01:17:07.840 --> 01:17:10.600 days after that, you know, mountains of trash, everybody's tearing 1354 01:17:10.600 --> 01:17:12.880 their floors out. You know, I'm helping people drag wet 1355 01:17:12.920 --> 01:17:14.359 mattresses and furniture out. 1356 01:17:14.399 --> 01:17:16.920 We were fortunate we lost no furniture in our place. 1357 01:17:17.520 --> 01:17:19.960 Somebody comes along, they were actually I think from the 1358 01:17:20.000 --> 01:17:24.039 little city we're in South Pasadena, and they proceeded to 1359 01:17:24.079 --> 01:17:25.560 go up and down each street. 1360 01:17:25.600 --> 01:17:27.680 There's about two hundred and twenty homes in the community. 1361 01:17:27.680 --> 01:17:32.680 Were right on the water, sticking these yellow papers on 1362 01:17:33.000 --> 01:17:36.880 all of the houses, the sides of stilted ones, and 1363 01:17:37.000 --> 01:17:39.479 a sheep protector tape them to the front of the house. 1364 01:17:39.640 --> 01:17:42.960 Just a yellow paper that said something to the effect 1365 01:17:43.000 --> 01:17:49.239 of uninhabitable reason of flooring system water damage right at 1366 01:17:49.239 --> 01:17:53.359 your own risk. Nothing identifying or anything on it. Is 1367 01:17:53.399 --> 01:17:56.279 to what it was, no official sealed tema whatever. 1368 01:17:56.479 --> 01:18:00.119 So I asked the lady who was sticking on and 1369 01:18:00.159 --> 01:18:03.279 I said, I said, you know what is this? I said, 1370 01:18:03.680 --> 01:18:05.479 she said, that's an order from FEMA. I said, well, 1371 01:18:05.479 --> 01:18:07.520 there's no ordinance on there, there's. 1372 01:18:07.359 --> 01:18:09.880 No contact information. For all I know, you're a squatter 1373 01:18:10.000 --> 01:18:12.239 trying to scam into leave my house to smooth in. 1374 01:18:12.880 --> 01:18:14.680 I tore it off and handed it back to her. 1375 01:18:15.039 --> 01:18:18.359 That's three days later. FEMA was in the neighborhood helping people, 1376 01:18:18.479 --> 01:18:22.159 you know, file for FEMA, talking to these people like 1377 01:18:22.199 --> 01:18:25.680 their six year olds, no identifying clothing, saying they're FEMA 1378 01:18:25.800 --> 01:18:29.079 talking to old people, don't add to use technology eighty 1379 01:18:29.159 --> 01:18:32.439 years old, like like they're six year old. They approached 1380 01:18:32.479 --> 01:18:35.800 me and They said, you know, where's your yellow sticker? 1381 01:18:35.800 --> 01:18:37.520 And I said, I don't need a yellow sticker and 1382 01:18:37.520 --> 01:18:40.159 they said, well, yeah, water system damage your floor. I said, 1383 01:18:40.439 --> 01:18:42.119 I'm not going to let you go in my house, 1384 01:18:42.159 --> 01:18:43.640 and I'm going to let you look in my house. 1385 01:18:43.680 --> 01:18:46.760 I kicked open the door and I said what floor. 1386 01:18:47.279 --> 01:18:49.000 I said, take your yellow paper and they. 1387 01:18:48.920 --> 01:18:50.760 Said, well, sir, you may not. 1388 01:18:50.840 --> 01:18:53.319 Be able to qualify for FEMA if you can't follow 1389 01:18:53.359 --> 01:18:54.760 the guidelines and whatever. 1390 01:18:54.840 --> 01:18:55.199 I said. 1391 01:18:55.520 --> 01:18:58.640 I said, I don't qualify for FEMA anyway.

Hey, listen 1418 01:20:27.479 --> 01:20:29.640 to the guy from Florida calling. And you know I 1419 01:20:29.680 --> 01:20:31.600 mentioned my friend Laura down in Florida and she's been 1420 01:20:31.640 --> 01:20:33.720 posting videos and the other thing she posted, I believe 1421 01:20:33.800 --> 01:20:37.479 was just yesterday. Power is still out and the power 1422 01:20:37.520 --> 01:20:38.920 is still out for a lot of people. And I 1423 01:20:38.920 --> 01:20:42.760 get on this, you know, this, this gang up against electric 1424 01:20:42.840 --> 01:20:45.399 vehicles and this whole shift to get you an electric vehicle, 1425 01:20:47.359 --> 01:20:49.560 stating the obvious, You're not gonna be able to charge 1426 01:20:49.560 --> 01:20:52.560 your EV if the power isn't working, which means most 1427 01:20:52.640 --> 01:20:56.079 people are relying on, yes, gasoline powered engines to run 1428 01:20:56.119 --> 01:20:59.560 their generators. And many people are in line at gas 1429 01:20:59.600 --> 01:21:02.359 station trying to get what gas is available out there. 1430 01:21:02.359 --> 01:21:04.520 And apparently the line, she said, were like one hundred 1431 01:21:04.560 --> 01:21:08.319 cars plus deep fistfights breaking out of gas stations because 1432 01:21:08.319 --> 01:21:10.840 people are trying to get their gasoline, but they can 1433 01:21:10.880 --> 01:21:19.239 at least get the gasoline, and in providing aid for 1434 01:21:19.319 --> 01:21:22.800 those people in the rural areas of North Carolina and elsewhere, 1435 01:21:23.800 --> 01:21:27.520 ATVs that run on gasoline are being used widely. Helicopters, 1436 01:21:27.560 --> 01:21:31.079 of course, you mean you need gasoline when the power's 1437 01:21:31.079 --> 01:21:34.279 out you can't get away from it or you're literally stuck. 1438 01:21:36.000 --> 01:21:38.520 And I know they make generators that are battery powered, 1439 01:21:38.520 --> 01:21:40.640 but I also know those things happen to be like 1440 01:21:40.960 --> 01:21:43.840 quadruple the price of a gasoline to do the same thing. 1441 01:21:43.880 --> 01:21:45.960 And what happens when it runs out of the charge, 1442 01:21:46.000 --> 01:21:48.359 what happens if the clouds are in the sky in 1443 01:21:48.399 --> 01:21:51.239 your solar panel, which allegedly can charge those things, but 1444 01:21:51.720 --> 01:21:55.840 not very efficiently. You can't get a recharge, so you 1445 01:21:55.880 --> 01:22:02.359 are literally without. So just the logistics of EV's, and 1446 01:22:02.399 --> 01:22:05.600 then there's the corollary problem. If you're in flood zones, 1447 01:22:05.600 --> 01:22:07.000 of course you're not supposed to even be able to 1448 01:22:07.079 --> 01:22:09.520 drive your EV's if they've been innundated with water, you're 1449 01:22:09.520 --> 01:22:12.319 not supposed to even move them or turn them on 1450 01:22:12.479 --> 01:22:14.279 for fear that they're going to blow up or explode 1451 01:22:14.319 --> 01:22:20.239 or otherwise catch on fire. Releasing thousands of particles of 1452 01:22:20.319 --> 01:22:23.119 toxic gas into the air is another component problem with that. 1453 01:22:23.720 --> 01:22:26.319 I don't know. It just seems people are becoming more 1454 01:22:26.359 --> 01:22:29.520 more aware of the risks associated with owning one and 1455 01:22:29.560 --> 01:22:32.479 all the downside that is going to come even more 1456 01:22:32.560 --> 01:22:37.039 so the more they will take over the transportation market. 1457 01:22:38.159 --> 01:22:40.239 Somebody should be able to figure out a new invention 1458 01:22:40.319 --> 01:22:42.479 for you out there, your creative types, figure out a 1459 01:22:42.479 --> 01:22:44.680 way of putting out an electric vehicle fire in a 1460 01:22:44.760 --> 01:22:46.760 very short period of time without having to us like 1461 01:22:46.840 --> 01:22:51.680 hundreds of thousands of gallons of water and everything else 1462 01:22:51.720 --> 01:22:55.000 that goes along with that. But yeah, I really feel 1463 01:22:55.039 --> 01:22:57.399 for the folks that are without. And I don't know, 1464 01:22:57.560 --> 01:23:00.760 compared to North Carolina, how bad things are in Florida, 1465 01:23:00.880 --> 01:23:02.800 or if there even is a comparison you can make 1466 01:23:02.840 --> 01:23:05.760 given the challenges associated with some of those more or 1467 01:23:05.840 --> 01:23:09.039 more rural areas of North Carolina in the mountainous regions 1468 01:23:09.079 --> 01:23:11.800 where people are still stuck, they still haven't gotten a 1469 01:23:11.840 --> 01:23:15.920 full death hole. So and big red flags over Feena. 1470 01:23:17.720 --> 01:23:23.239 My friend Maureen, the pattern observer, not conspiracy theorist, believes 1471 01:23:23.239 --> 01:23:26.079 that the storms will ultimately endo being a land grab 1472 01:23:26.159 --> 01:23:29.039 FEMA planning to grab these homes for pennies on the dollar. 1473 01:23:29.079 --> 01:23:30.840 And if some people suspect that that's what went on 1474 01:23:30.880 --> 01:23:35.039 in Hawaii, I haven't reached that conclusion, but I know 1475 01:23:35.079 --> 01:23:39.600 the rumors are swirling about around out there. So anyhow, 1476 01:23:39.600 --> 01:23:41.560 five one three, seven, four nine fifty five hundred, eight 1477 01:23:41.640 --> 01:23:44.039 hundred eighty two to three talk found five fifty on 1478 01:23:44.079 --> 01:23:47.039 AT and T phone UH department here here, okay, here 1479 01:23:47.079 --> 01:23:49.079 is there any bias in our federal government Department of 1480 01:23:49.199 --> 01:23:52.039 Justice suing Virginia because they're trying to enforce their own 1481 01:23:52.119 --> 01:23:55.760 law removing non citizen from the voter list. Any effort 1482 01:23:55.800 --> 01:23:57.920 that any state goes into to try to get rid 1483 01:23:58.000 --> 01:24:00.880 of people who are not legally allowed to vote is 1484 01:24:01.039 --> 01:24:03.479 well met with a roadblock from the DOJ at least 1485 01:24:03.479 --> 01:24:07.319 a lawsuit sue the state of Virginia over the state's 1486 01:24:07.439 --> 01:24:10.279 enforcement of a two thousand and six law removing non 1487 01:24:10.359 --> 01:24:13.920 citizens from voter list. Let me repeat, non citizens aren't 1488 01:24:13.920 --> 01:24:16.399 supposed to vote and not allowed to vote federal elections. 1489 01:24:16.399 --> 01:24:20.720 It's a no no. Last Friday, the Dog wrote that 1490 01:24:20.760 --> 01:24:23.359 the removal of voters from election rules so close to 1491 01:24:23.359 --> 01:24:26.159 an upcoming presidential election of violation of the National Voter 1492 01:24:26.279 --> 01:24:30.800 Registration Act, which says states are required to complete the 1493 01:24:30.920 --> 01:24:34.199 systematic programs in order to remove the names of ineligible 1494 01:24:34.279 --> 01:24:36.920 voters from voter registration list no later than ninety days 1495 01:24:36.960 --> 01:24:45.520 before federal elections. They said, this is too late. Governor 1496 01:24:45.560 --> 01:24:49.199 of Virginia. Virginia Governor Glen Youngkin issued the executive order 1497 01:24:49.239 --> 01:24:52.600 in August requiring all registrars to cancel the registrations of 1498 01:24:52.760 --> 01:24:56.359 non citizens who have registered to vote in a local, 1499 01:24:56.359 --> 01:25:00.159 state or federal election by falsely claiming they are are 1500 01:25:00.239 --> 01:25:03.359 a citizen, including the forging of documentation or any other 1501 01:25:03.439 --> 01:25:06.920 means of improper registration. These are people who are not 1502 01:25:07.039 --> 01:25:11.279 allowed to vote and they have misrepresented, either intentionally or negligently. 1503 01:25:11.319 --> 01:25:15.279 I think this is falsely claiming is probably an intentional act, 1504 01:25:16.119 --> 01:25:18.960 and our federal government wants to prevent that from happening. 1505 01:25:22.840 --> 01:25:27.359 Youngkins announcement on this executive order in August revealed it 1506 01:25:27.439 --> 01:25:32.119 roughly just under eighty thousand deceased voters had been removed 1507 01:25:32.119 --> 01:25:34.640 from the voter list of the prior calendar year, and 1508 01:25:34.720 --> 01:25:37.520 that roughly six three hundred and three non citizens have 1509 01:25:37.520 --> 01:25:39.680 been taken out the voter list between January twenty two 1510 01:25:39.720 --> 01:25:42.039 and July of this year. They're out there, there are 1511 01:25:42.039 --> 01:25:44.039 a lot of them. They're endeavoring to do what they're 1512 01:25:44.079 --> 01:25:46.600 obligated to do under the Virginia law passed in two 1513 01:25:46.640 --> 01:25:48.239 thousand and six to get rid of the folks that 1514 01:25:48.319 --> 01:25:52.079 are not legally allowed to vote. And of course the 1515 01:25:52.119 --> 01:25:55.479 Department of Justice will have none of that, absolutely none 1516 01:25:55.520 --> 01:26:00.720 of that. Over to a victory in Michigan, Michigan Republicans 1517 01:26:00.720 --> 01:26:04.840 secure to win an election integrity lawsuit against the City 1518 01:26:04.880 --> 01:26:09.239 of Detroit over its deliberate failure to hire enough Republican 1519 01:26:09.439 --> 01:26:15.680 election inspectors. RNC, among other Republican groups in Michigan nounce 1520 01:26:15.720 --> 01:26:18.760 the city conceded to modifying its election protocols to hire 1521 01:26:18.800 --> 01:26:21.439 Republican poll workers at each location that they had to 1522 01:26:21.479 --> 01:26:25.439 do anyway. Back in August, RNC sued the city allegend 1523 01:26:25.439 --> 01:26:28.279 that violated the state law requiring election officials to hire 1524 01:26:28.279 --> 01:26:30.520 an equal number of poll workers on both sides of 1525 01:26:30.520 --> 01:26:35.439 the political aisle. Right, the lawsuit of legends of the 1526 01:26:35.479 --> 01:26:40.880 city hired seven times as many Democrats as Republican which 1527 01:26:41.079 --> 01:26:43.760 of course decreases public trust and elections. According to complaint, 1528 01:26:43.760 --> 01:26:46.720 of Republican Party nominate nominated six hundred and seventy five 1529 01:26:46.720 --> 01:26:50.039 of these election inspectors, the city only appointed fifty two. 1530 01:26:51.840 --> 01:26:54.520 The city hired up to two hundred and fifty Republicans 1531 01:26:54.520 --> 01:26:57.560 that were not nominated by the RNC. That left the 1532 01:26:57.640 --> 01:27:02.399 ratio of seven Democrats to one Republican inspector, which, according 1533 01:27:02.399 --> 01:27:04.920 to the complaint, was not even close to equal. Obviously, 1534 01:27:06.439 --> 01:27:09.520 in comparison, the city hired hired again more than twenty 1535 01:27:09.600 --> 01:27:14.279 three hundred election inspectors from the Democrat Party. Back in 1536 01:27:14.279 --> 01:27:17.640 the press release, RNC said this uneven distribution of poll 1537 01:27:17.680 --> 01:27:20.199 workers not only breaches state law, but also undermines the 1538 01:27:20.199 --> 01:27:23.479 integrity and fairness of the electoral process. Our lawsuit demands 1539 01:27:23.840 --> 01:27:26.600 Detroit to point more Republican inspectors, which is ultimately the 1540 01:27:26.600 --> 01:27:32.239 win that they got. According to rn C Chairman Michael Watley, 1541 01:27:32.239 --> 01:27:34.479 thanks to the efforts of the RNC and the Michigan GOP, 1542 01:27:34.640 --> 01:27:38.039 Detroit will now change its election processes so the Republican 1543 01:27:38.039 --> 01:27:41.800 poll workers will be allocated to all voting locations as 1544 01:27:41.840 --> 01:27:44.560 nearly as possible, and equal number of Republicans will be 1545 01:27:44.640 --> 01:27:48.720 hired to this November. They also want a lawsuit in 1546 01:27:48.800 --> 01:27:55.319 July over signature verification requirements that election officials were instructed 1547 01:27:55.399 --> 01:28:02.319 to disregard. Huh, who's doing the disregarding who's doing the 1548 01:28:02.359 --> 01:28:06.119 imbalance of the Democrats? I wonder why that might be. 1549 01:28:06.279 --> 01:28:08.880 Why are they so interested in ignoring the laws written 1550 01:28:08.880 --> 01:28:10.840 on the books. You got one Democrat, you got to 1551 01:28:10.880 --> 01:28:18.840 have one Republican. Here's the signature requirement. Follow it peak 1552 01:28:18.920 --> 01:28:21.079 hoaxed or the Republican Party chairman. As to the signature 1553 01:28:21.079 --> 01:28:24.960 of verification, the signatures of absentee val voters have to 1554 01:28:25.159 --> 01:28:27.920 and should be verified. Michigan is crucial to the pathway 1555 01:28:27.960 --> 01:28:30.079 the victory in November. We must protect and enforce all 1556 01:28:30.119 --> 01:28:33.319 our election laws to maintain confidence on our system. Who 1557 01:28:33.479 --> 01:28:43.039 is undermining confidence in the system? The Democrats you know. 1558 01:28:43.199 --> 01:28:47.000 I mean, can you imagine the just the outrage if 1559 01:28:47.079 --> 01:28:52.319 Republicans were consciously intentionally standing in the way of Democrats 1560 01:28:52.319 --> 01:28:55.840 getting their poll workers in place, that if the Republicans 1561 01:28:55.840 --> 01:28:58.520 were ignoring state law regarding signature requirements or anything else 1562 01:28:58.520 --> 01:29:00.960 for that matter, they would be screaming, bloody murderer, be 1563 01:29:01.000 --> 01:29:03.199 on the front page of the mainstream meuda all over. 1564 01:29:04.159 --> 01:29:06.840 They are the obstructionist. They're the ones that want to 1565 01:29:06.960 --> 01:29:10.000 keep the opportunity to cheat. I mean, look at the 1566 01:29:10.039 --> 01:29:14.359 Governor of California, Gavin Newsom, signing into law a prohibition 1567 01:29:14.600 --> 01:29:19.359 on using photo IDs. What possible sense does that make 1568 01:29:19.640 --> 01:29:22.920 if you're interested in ensuring the accuracy of the vote. 1569 01:29:23.800 --> 01:29:29.119 Zero It opens the door for cheating. Whether it's widespread 1570 01:29:29.199 --> 01:29:31.279 or not. It's a hole that could be plugged that 1571 01:29:31.359 --> 01:29:35.760 they choose intentionally not to plug. Maybe the purpose is 1572 01:29:35.920 --> 01:29:41.920 to cause you to believe the election is invalid. I 1573 01:29:41.960 --> 01:29:43.520 know that is an issue that came up when I 1574 01:29:43.520 --> 01:29:45.840 read about the number of firearms owners in the United 1575 01:29:45.880 --> 01:29:48.720 States that aren't even registered to vote. There's like forty 1576 01:29:48.760 --> 01:29:51.119 million of them. One of the reasons cited by these 1577 01:29:51.159 --> 01:29:53.520 people is they don't believe that the election is going 1578 01:29:53.560 --> 01:29:58.399 to matter. It doesn't count. It's rigged. And obviously the 1579 01:29:58.479 --> 01:30:02.239 perception of a rigged election is exacerbated when Democrats don't 1580 01:30:02.239 --> 01:30:06.279 do anything at all to plug the holes, like getting 1581 01:30:06.319 --> 01:30:09.359 dead people off the voter ranks, getting illegal immigrants who 1582 01:30:09.399 --> 01:30:12.560 are not allowed to vote off the voter rolls, requiring 1583 01:30:12.560 --> 01:30:15.560 a photo ID so you can't fake it and pretend 1584 01:30:15.640 --> 01:30:21.520 you're somebody that you're not.

My friend brother? 1725 01:37:44.199 --> 01:37:49.640 Let me you know that I am a Catholic family 1726 01:37:49.880 --> 01:37:54.840 and you know fifteen Governor Whitmern. I don't know if 1727 01:37:55.000 --> 01:37:59.840 you're listening audience, you know saw per video of putting 1728 01:37:59.880 --> 01:38:05.359 a dorito into an influencer's mouth as if she was 1729 01:38:05.399 --> 01:38:07.319 taking her first communion. 1730 01:38:07.840 --> 01:38:10.319 Wearing a hair hat. 1731 01:38:12.159 --> 01:38:14.880 It just doesn't make any sense to me. And you know, 1732 01:38:14.880 --> 01:38:18.840 when I connect things like you know, the Olympics and 1733 01:38:19.439 --> 01:38:23.439 the opening ceremonies. Now I see, I see, you know, 1734 01:38:23.560 --> 01:38:27.279 the governor of Michigan with the dorrito putting it in 1735 01:38:27.800 --> 01:38:31.119 a woman's mouth that she's on her knees as she's 1736 01:38:31.199 --> 01:38:34.359 acting as if she's taking her first communion. The dorrito 1737 01:38:35.039 --> 01:38:39.279 is offensive. Her on her knees with the communion outfit 1738 01:38:39.479 --> 01:38:44.479 is offensive. And injecting it into the politics space right, 1739 01:38:44.560 --> 01:38:48.079 the political space is offensive. And so I'm trying to 1740 01:38:48.119 --> 01:38:51.800 figure out what's going on in her head that she 1741 01:38:51.880 --> 01:38:56.439 would think that mocking Catholics in Michigan are across the 1742 01:38:56.520 --> 01:39:00.760 country for their first communion, which you know is incredibly 1743 01:39:00.800 --> 01:39:06.279 important in our faith, our children's first communion is insane, 1744 01:39:06.760 --> 01:39:08.680 and I'm just trying to figure out what the hell 1745 01:39:08.800 --> 01:39:11.800 is going on and why she thought that was important 1746 01:39:11.840 --> 01:39:12.119 to do. 1747 01:39:12.880 --> 01:39:17.279 Yeah, for the life I mean, Christopher, I have no idea, honestly, 1748 01:39:17.600 --> 01:39:20.800 you know. I want to say it's like a company 1749 01:39:21.239 --> 01:39:24.680 going on record on some very politically divisive issue like 1750 01:39:24.760 --> 01:39:27.039 bud light and the LGBTQ thing. But a lot of 1751 01:39:27.039 --> 01:39:29.319 folks have gone down that road, much of their chagrin, 1752 01:39:29.399 --> 01:39:32.079 because the minute you take a political stand it favors 1753 01:39:32.079 --> 01:39:34.239 one side or another, you immediately are going to alienate 1754 01:39:34.319 --> 01:39:36.640 half of the people. If you're a politician and you're 1755 01:39:36.640 --> 01:39:39.359 trying to get votes for Kamala Harris, why would you 1756 01:39:39.399 --> 01:39:42.520 want to piss Catholics off? It doesn't make a wits 1757 01:39:42.560 --> 01:39:46.159 worth of sense. Don't go down that road, remain neutral, 1758 01:39:46.319 --> 01:39:50.399 say nothing about it. I just don't. I don't get it. 1759 01:39:50.600 --> 01:39:53.479 I really don't. Unless she's so surrounded by this echo 1760 01:39:53.600 --> 01:39:56.880 chamber that she thinks the entire world feels as though 1761 01:39:56.960 --> 01:39:59.600 she does, and then somehow Catholics are to be mocked 1762 01:40:00.039 --> 01:40:01.960 for whatever reason. I don't know. Maybe it has something 1763 01:40:01.960 --> 01:40:05.640 to do with the abortion decision all or the abortion issue. 1764 01:40:05.840 --> 01:40:07.640 Don't know, Christopher, I really don't. 1765 01:40:07.760 --> 01:40:12.279 It's dumb, but it's it's really dumb, and you're right, 1766 01:40:12.359 --> 01:40:15.439 it's like there obviously there are people around her who 1767 01:40:15.439 --> 01:40:18.800 are watching her video take this and going, this is 1768 01:40:18.840 --> 01:40:21.840 a great idea, Governor, you know, this is a great idea. 1769 01:40:22.039 --> 01:40:24.560 There's nobody pulling her chain that says, you know what, 1770 01:40:24.720 --> 01:40:27.840 putting at Dorrito and faking like you're doing the first 1771 01:40:27.840 --> 01:40:32.199 communion right, You're you're you're you're literally going to piss 1772 01:40:32.239 --> 01:40:36.119 off any Catholic person that sees it. So it's just 1773 01:40:36.199 --> 01:40:38.840 amazing to me. And I want to pivot to FEMA 1774 01:40:39.319 --> 01:40:42.560 because this word that they've been using over the weekend, 1775 01:40:43.199 --> 01:40:49.119 you know, basically saying misinformation, misinformation. Here's the reality, man, FEMA, 1776 01:40:49.359 --> 01:40:54.800 phil North Carolina, Georgia, and Florida. Period. Right, we've got 1777 01:40:54.920 --> 01:40:58.640 hurricanes impacting Americans and so. 1778 01:40:58.600 --> 01:41:02.680 What adds a level of rubbs is the one billion 1779 01:41:02.840 --> 01:41:07.359 plus dollars that they gave out to illegal immigrants for 1780 01:41:07.600 --> 01:41:10.479 housing and food and healthcare and. 1781 01:41:10.359 --> 01:41:17.079 Whatever they were doing while American citizens suffer, meaning people 1782 01:41:17.159 --> 01:41:21.199 lost their houses, they lost their pets, they lost their grandparents, 1783 01:41:21.319 --> 01:41:24.680 they lost their children, they lost their spouses. I mean, 1784 01:41:24.760 --> 01:41:30.560 we're talking about catastrophic situations in North Carolina, parts of Georgia, 1785 01:41:30.760 --> 01:41:34.199 and obviously parts of Florida. Why do we have a 1786 01:41:34.239 --> 01:41:38.279 White House that could send a billion dollars out for 1787 01:41:38.359 --> 01:41:42.439 people who came to our country illegally and then seems 1788 01:41:42.479 --> 01:41:45.199 to not be able to put together some type of 1789 01:41:45.279 --> 01:41:49.600 emergency packages outside of seven hundred and fifty dollars for 1790 01:41:49.800 --> 01:41:54.800 American citizens in our own damn country. Brian Thomas, It's 1791 01:41:54.920 --> 01:41:55.880 amazing to. 1792 01:41:55.840 --> 01:41:58.399 Me, it is, And they always seem to magically find 1793 01:41:58.439 --> 01:42:02.359 initial money when some other source demands it, like wow, 1794 01:42:02.439 --> 01:42:04.960 law and behold. You know, Biden approves an additional X 1795 01:42:05.079 --> 01:42:07.760 billion dollars for some foreign war, and you're like, wait 1796 01:42:07.760 --> 01:42:10.760 a second, did Congress allocate that? Where where did that 1797 01:42:10.800 --> 01:42:14.359 come from? In rerouting unspent COVID funds, there's a whole 1798 01:42:14.399 --> 01:42:16.800 bunch of billions of dollars in unspent COVID money for 1799 01:42:16.920 --> 01:42:19.800 issues that aren't around anymore. They re route that money 1800 01:42:20.239 --> 01:42:23.079 elsewhere sometimes, but no, when it comes to you know, 1801 01:42:23.159 --> 01:42:26.279 people out in North Carolina, we know I'm sorry, we're 1802 01:42:26.279 --> 01:42:27.520 out of money. We don't have it. It's in a 1803 01:42:27.520 --> 01:42:29.640 different bucket. We're not allowed to use that bucket because 1804 01:42:29.680 --> 01:42:30.960 it's allocated for something else. 1805 01:42:32.479 --> 01:42:35.199 It's insane. And then in the same week, you know, 1806 01:42:35.279 --> 01:42:38.760 I'm not exaggerating, they say we're sending money to Lebanon. Yeah, 1807 01:42:39.000 --> 01:42:41.159 you know, and so you're just, you're just and that's 1808 01:42:41.199 --> 01:42:44.840 not an exaggeration to the to your listening audience. This 1809 01:42:44.920 --> 01:42:49.000 is why this election right now is so acute and 1810 01:42:49.039 --> 01:42:52.840 why people are so concerned. Because you would think, Brian Thomas, 1811 01:42:52.920 --> 01:42:57.359 that are hurricane hitting North Carolina, hitting Georgia, hitting Florida 1812 01:42:57.640 --> 01:43:01.319 would be bipartisan. You would think, no matter what your 1813 01:43:01.399 --> 01:43:06.199 political spectrum, I wouldn't turn my TV on and go misinformation. 1814 01:43:06.560 --> 01:43:09.720 FEMA's doing their job. If you talk to the people 1815 01:43:09.720 --> 01:43:12.800 that are on the ground, Brian Thomas, they tell you 1816 01:43:13.199 --> 01:43:16.399 they don't know where FEMA is. The people helping the 1817 01:43:16.399 --> 01:43:21.560 people are churches, volunteers coming from outside the state, inside 1818 01:43:21.600 --> 01:43:27.239 the state of Christian organizations that are there providing the 1819 01:43:27.279 --> 01:43:31.800 support private citizens. With helicopters going up in the North Carolina. 1820 01:43:32.039 --> 01:43:34.439 It was at the first week, a week and a half. 1821 01:43:34.640 --> 01:43:38.000 It wasn't FEMA, it wasn't the United States of Government. 1822 01:43:38.279 --> 01:43:41.000 And I'm saying the White House did a terrible job 1823 01:43:41.319 --> 01:43:45.199 of pulling together our resources. At the same time, it 1824 01:43:45.239 --> 01:43:49.279 looks like they care more about the illegal immigration situation 1825 01:43:49.720 --> 01:43:53.000 with their money. That is the rub as we go 1826 01:43:53.119 --> 01:43:56.800 into the November fifth election, you're literally telling us through 1827 01:43:56.840 --> 01:44:00.640 your spending, how you spend your money, what you value, 1828 01:44:00.800 --> 01:44:02.359 and it's not American citizens. 1829 01:44:02.560 --> 01:44:04.800 Gee. You know, as you were saying that, Christopher, I'm 1830 01:44:04.840 --> 01:44:08.399 just wondering if you had a Republican in office right now, oh, 1831 01:44:08.439 --> 01:44:11.920 maybe like George Bush during Katrina and got all that 1832 01:44:12.039 --> 01:44:15.119 backlash about how you know, it was being mismanaged and 1833 01:44:15.159 --> 01:44:17.760 it was all racist based and YadA, YadA, YadA. It 1834 01:44:17.800 --> 01:44:20.920 was a total I mean just absolutely, just an absolute 1835 01:44:21.000 --> 01:44:23.880 slam twenty four to seven on the response on that one. 1836 01:44:24.039 --> 01:44:26.039 And here we have all these illustrations, some of which 1837 01:44:26.079 --> 01:44:30.640 you just pointed out, about an incompetent administration and incompetent 1838 01:44:30.720 --> 01:44:33.159 use of FEMA funds and a limited number of funds 1839 01:44:33.199 --> 01:44:36.920 even available. They're not getting the heat that Bush got 1840 01:44:36.960 --> 01:44:38.199 during Katrina at all. 1841 01:44:40.600 --> 01:44:44.800 Absolutely not, And the difference is so glaring, and that's 1842 01:44:44.800 --> 01:44:48.319 why it was so bizarre to hear these talking points 1843 01:44:48.359 --> 01:44:51.680 coming from administrators like their feelings have been hurt. Oh 1844 01:44:51.720 --> 01:44:54.319 my goodness, I can't believe they're saying these things about me. 1845 01:44:54.560 --> 01:44:57.680 And I'm going, lady, do you understand that people lost 1846 01:44:57.720 --> 01:45:02.359 their entire house like it's gone, Like most Americans all 1847 01:45:02.399 --> 01:45:05.079 of their wealth are eighty percent of their wealth is 1848 01:45:05.159 --> 01:45:11.359 in their home. It just washed away. Their families washed away, 1849 01:45:11.439 --> 01:45:15.079 meaning grandma and grandpa and moms and dads and children. 1850 01:45:15.359 --> 01:45:19.840 And they're sitting there wanting us to feel sorry for FEMA. Listen, 1851 01:45:19.960 --> 01:45:22.640 I can't feel sorry for FEMA when you see the 1852 01:45:22.720 --> 01:45:27.640 catastrophic situations in North Carolina. There's still people, thousands and 1853 01:45:27.840 --> 01:45:31.479 thousands of Americans who do not have electricity, do not 1854 01:45:31.640 --> 01:45:34.239 have clean water today, and they live in the United 1855 01:45:34.279 --> 01:45:37.680 States of America. I'm saying FEMA and the White House failed, 1856 01:45:38.000 --> 01:45:40.680 They did not do a good job, They were not prepared, 1857 01:45:40.960 --> 01:45:44.079 and that is now on the ballot on November the fifth, 1858 01:45:44.359 --> 01:45:48.319 because we're saying, why aren't you putting Americans first? Why 1859 01:45:48.319 --> 01:45:51.119 are you not putting your own citizens on the forefront 1860 01:45:51.399 --> 01:45:53.199 while you're trying to take care of the rest of 1861 01:45:53.239 --> 01:45:56.159 the world. Don't tell me you're sending money to Ukraine 1862 01:45:56.279 --> 01:46:00.000 and you can't evacuate and save people in North Carolina. 1863 01:46:00.479 --> 01:46:01.560 It doesn't make sense. 1864 01:46:02.359 --> 01:46:04.760 It does not make sense. Christopher, you're asking for me 1865 01:46:04.800 --> 01:46:08.600 to make sense of it. I can't do that question, Christopher. 1866 01:46:09.039 --> 01:46:11.119 Are they going to be able to vote in North Carolina? 1867 01:46:11.159 --> 01:46:14.319 Will they get a mechanism in place that will allow 1868 01:46:14.359 --> 01:46:17.039 those people who some of which are still stranded or 1869 01:46:17.039 --> 01:46:20.560 at least in isolated areas without power as you point out, 1870 01:46:20.560 --> 01:46:22.399 Are they even going to get an opportunity to chime 1871 01:46:22.520 --> 01:46:24.079 in on the election in November? 1872 01:46:25.479 --> 01:46:28.760 I think you have Americans in these areas that will 1873 01:46:28.800 --> 01:46:32.600 be crawling through the mud to vote. I think they're 1874 01:46:32.720 --> 01:46:36.880 so incent by what has happened here that they'll be 1875 01:46:36.960 --> 01:46:38.800 the first at the ballot box. 1876 01:46:39.239 --> 01:46:40.199 They'll be there. 1877 01:46:40.359 --> 01:46:43.760 Because they understand better than any of us now how 1878 01:46:43.880 --> 01:46:48.000 their country has abandoned them while they have nothing. They're 1879 01:46:48.039 --> 01:46:51.560 offered seven hundred and fifty dollars. I mean, who puts 1880 01:46:51.560 --> 01:46:54.640 that out on the on the TV with good sense? 1881 01:46:54.920 --> 01:46:57.600 Who would even announce, hey, man, we're going to give 1882 01:46:57.640 --> 01:47:01.319 you seven hundred and fifty dollars says that, like if 1883 01:47:01.319 --> 01:47:03.840 that was even the point, I wouldn't even announce that 1884 01:47:03.920 --> 01:47:07.720 as a politician. It's like the governor of Michigan Whitman 1885 01:47:07.800 --> 01:47:10.640 with a dorito giving it to somebody doing, you know, 1886 01:47:10.720 --> 01:47:15.159 acting like they're doing first communion. These politicians are disconnected 1887 01:47:15.399 --> 01:47:18.560 and they just continue to reinforce that they don't care 1888 01:47:18.640 --> 01:47:21.800 about us. They're not dialed into our pain and suffering. 1889 01:47:22.239 --> 01:47:24.920 The government should have been there for North Carolina, for 1890 01:47:25.000 --> 01:47:30.039 Georgia and Florida. And you saw what Governor Desantus sent out. Listen, 1891 01:47:30.119 --> 01:47:33.880 don't play political games with this hurricane. Vice President, this 1892 01:47:34.079 --> 01:47:37.880 is serious. We need serious people dealing with serious issues. 1893 01:47:38.039 --> 01:47:39.720 And I know we're going to have a segment because 1894 01:47:39.760 --> 01:47:42.119 when we come back, I want to talk about the 1895 01:47:42.159 --> 01:47:43.640 brother comment that came. 1896 01:47:43.880 --> 01:47:49.279 Oh yes, I am looking forward to your take on that. 1897 01:47:49.359 --> 01:47:51.279 Let's pause from Rome. We'll do just that. Bring Beck 1898 01:47:51.319 --> 01:47:54.640 Christopher on that.

You can use 1930 01:49:26.039 --> 01:49:29.479 the left's own phrases against them in response to that anyway. 1931 01:49:30.039 --> 01:49:34.399 Christopher Smithman, your reaction to uh Barack Obama's given a 1932 01:49:34.399 --> 01:49:40.079 tongue lashing to black men, Well, let me. 1933 01:49:40.079 --> 01:49:43.319 Just share with you as an African American man, I 1934 01:49:43.359 --> 01:49:47.479 don't speak for African American people in this country are 1935 01:49:47.520 --> 01:49:51.159 around the world, and nor does former President Barack Obama. 1936 01:49:51.680 --> 01:49:55.239 The African American community is not a monolithic community. We 1937 01:49:55.359 --> 01:50:00.039 are incredibly diverse, with a variety of different perspectives, and 1938 01:50:00.119 --> 01:50:02.640 damn it, we've earned it. So we're not going to 1939 01:50:02.760 --> 01:50:07.720 have anybody present or give us tongue lashings about how 1940 01:50:07.760 --> 01:50:12.920 we should sing politically, what we should do economically. It 1941 01:50:13.079 --> 01:50:15.920 just doesn't make any sense to me. And so, out 1942 01:50:15.960 --> 01:50:19.279 of deep respect for President Barack Obama, like I would 1943 01:50:19.319 --> 01:50:22.720 say for former President Trump or former President Bush or 1944 01:50:22.800 --> 01:50:27.479 Vice President Harrism is giving examples. Right that title I extend. 1945 01:50:28.640 --> 01:50:32.560 But to stand in front of our country and act 1946 01:50:32.600 --> 01:50:37.760 as if you are speaking for African American men, are 1947 01:50:37.960 --> 01:50:42.600 people on how they should politically vote, is way out 1948 01:50:42.600 --> 01:50:45.000 of line. And so the notion that I got to 1949 01:50:45.039 --> 01:50:49.000 get the brothers together. Now you're my brother, Bryan Thomas. 1950 01:50:49.159 --> 01:50:53.560 I don't know a President Obama, and so this notion 1951 01:50:53.680 --> 01:50:56.920 that he can stand there and act as if black 1952 01:50:57.000 --> 01:51:00.840 men don't have concerns that they've been raising about the 1953 01:51:00.920 --> 01:51:05.359 political strategy or meaning they're saying economically inflation is hurting me. 1954 01:51:05.880 --> 01:51:09.600 I'm worried about the border, right, meaning it's this notion 1955 01:51:09.760 --> 01:51:13.840 that African American men don't have deep thoughts about the 1956 01:51:13.960 --> 01:51:20.800 public policies of our country, bathing in race, pandering to 1957 01:51:20.960 --> 01:51:25.399 skin complexion, are pandering to gender, when the reality of 1958 01:51:25.439 --> 01:51:29.359 it is they're African American men. Obviously, because the Democratic 1959 01:51:29.399 --> 01:51:32.640 Party is panicking, they wouldn't be saying and doing those 1960 01:51:32.640 --> 01:51:35.840 things if they weren't panicking. I will say something that 1961 01:51:35.960 --> 01:51:39.600 is charged. It almost is like the Democrats are feeling 1962 01:51:40.039 --> 01:51:44.720 like some Democrats are moving off of their Democratic plantation. 1963 01:51:45.239 --> 01:51:48.359 Meaning this mindset that I can tell you how to think, 1964 01:51:48.560 --> 01:51:51.600 what to do, and you should be bathing in someone's 1965 01:51:51.640 --> 01:51:56.199 pigmentation and not their public policy. Meaning people around the 1966 01:51:56.279 --> 01:51:59.720 Vice president have been telling her, please go on in 1967 01:51:59.800 --> 01:52:02.720 a flaying yourself. We have a talk show host person 1968 01:52:02.800 --> 01:52:06.359 right here locally, Lincoln Ware. Why hasn't she come into 1969 01:52:06.439 --> 01:52:09.880 the market and given lincoln Ware an interview if they're 1970 01:52:09.920 --> 01:52:12.399 really concerned about It's not like lincoln Ware is not 1971 01:52:12.439 --> 01:52:14.640 going to ask her, well, tell me what your policies 1972 01:52:14.680 --> 01:52:18.600 are around bringing down inflation, because he's out there paying gas, 1973 01:52:18.760 --> 01:52:21.840 he's out there trying to buy food like everybody else. 1974 01:52:22.119 --> 01:52:25.479 Meaning it just takes away from the substance of the 1975 01:52:25.560 --> 01:52:30.520 debate to say, just vote for her because that bothers me. 1976 01:52:30.600 --> 01:52:33.960 And I think that the blank because is because she 1977 01:52:34.159 --> 01:52:37.520 is a woman of color or because she's African American. 1978 01:52:38.000 --> 01:52:41.600 Well, and I don't know that she necessarily is. There's 1979 01:52:41.600 --> 01:52:46.159 some confusion swirling about her Jamaican background and her I guess, 1980 01:52:46.239 --> 01:52:49.800 is it Indian background. I get confused about that. I 1981 01:52:49.840 --> 01:52:52.479 saw a black commentator bring that up and he was saying, okay, 1982 01:52:52.520 --> 01:52:55.319 so we have a half black man telling all black 1983 01:52:55.359 --> 01:52:58.479 men one hundred percent black men what they should do 1984 01:52:58.760 --> 01:53:02.399 and vote for a woman of questionable ethnic background. She's 1985 01:53:02.399 --> 01:53:04.079 not black anyway. That was not my words. It was 1986 01:53:04.119 --> 01:53:06.520 just repeating what other one of the other black commentators 1987 01:53:06.520 --> 01:53:08.840 who was offended, as you sound like you are over 1988 01:53:08.880 --> 01:53:11.359 that I was when I heard that was my reaction, 1989 01:53:11.439 --> 01:53:15.119 Chris from like, you know, black men probably do grocery 1990 01:53:15.119 --> 01:53:18.439 shopping and have budgets themselves, and probably have car payments 1991 01:53:18.479 --> 01:53:22.199 and insurance payments and mortgage payments or rent payments, and 1992 01:53:22.239 --> 01:53:24.720 we know they've all gone up. It may be that 1993 01:53:24.800 --> 01:53:27.560 they realize that this is current administrations are the ones 1994 01:53:27.600 --> 01:53:29.680 that brought about a lot of this peril. They may 1995 01:53:29.720 --> 01:53:32.600 live in a neighborhood that's been inundated with illegal immigrants 1996 01:53:32.880 --> 01:53:35.479 and a high crime and they may reject the woke 1997 01:53:35.560 --> 01:53:38.720 ideology of the left in terms of crime fighting or 1998 01:53:38.760 --> 01:53:42.239 in terms of relocating illegal immigrants into their neighborhood when 1999 01:53:42.479 --> 01:53:44.920 the residents of the neighborhood aren't getting the benefits of 2000 01:53:45.000 --> 01:53:47.640 big fat ebt checks. And I mean we can go 2001 01:53:47.680 --> 01:53:49.520 on and on about all the benefits illegal immigrants are 2002 01:53:49.520 --> 01:53:51.600 getting in this country. Going back to your FEMA comment, 2003 01:53:52.039 --> 01:53:54.800 I mean, yeah, those are real issues affecting real people 2004 01:53:54.840 --> 01:53:57.279 every single day, and the whole idea that brought Obama 2005 01:53:57.319 --> 01:53:59.439 wants to turn this into Come on, guys, you just 2006 01:53:59.439 --> 01:54:02.479 don't want to for a woman. Get over that. It's ridiculous. 2007 01:54:02.840 --> 01:54:05.359 If that woman's policies or she was part of administration 2008 01:54:05.479 --> 01:54:08.079 that was really working for the American people and had 2009 01:54:08.119 --> 01:54:11.399 inflation down and affordability of homes up, they wouldn't be 2010 01:54:11.479 --> 01:54:14.680 complaining and they'd readily vote for her because it's working. 2011 01:54:16.560 --> 01:54:21.159 A central issue in the African American community are public 2012 01:54:21.199 --> 01:54:25.680 school systems around them wherever they live that are failing, right, 2013 01:54:25.800 --> 01:54:31.079 Because still the number one way out of the middle class, 2014 01:54:31.199 --> 01:54:35.079 higher upper middle class, or from poverty into the middle 2015 01:54:35.079 --> 01:54:39.680 class is a good education, sir. And so you have 2016 01:54:40.159 --> 01:54:46.439 communities that are being ravaged by public school systems that 2017 01:54:46.560 --> 01:54:49.239 are failing their children. So what I look at and 2018 01:54:49.279 --> 01:54:52.760 I push back on former President of Barack Obama, we 2019 01:54:52.880 --> 01:54:57.720 need him lending a voice to public school systems around 2020 01:54:57.760 --> 01:55:01.239 the country who are failing our children. We need him 2021 01:55:01.359 --> 01:55:06.079 lending a voice to communities, urban cores that are not safe, 2022 01:55:06.319 --> 01:55:09.439 where people are coming out of their homes and being 2023 01:55:09.520 --> 01:55:12.520 shot at, or their children are standing at a bus 2024 01:55:12.520 --> 01:55:15.760 stop being shot at. We need him to weigh in 2025 01:55:15.800 --> 01:55:19.239 on how do you lower prices like you just talked 2026 01:55:19.239 --> 01:55:22.399 about I'd like to buy a steak, or I'd like 2027 01:55:22.439 --> 01:55:25.760 to buy milk and eggs. It's forty percent or thirty 2028 01:55:25.800 --> 01:55:29.520 percent higher than it was a year ago. I'm saying 2029 01:55:29.720 --> 01:55:33.880 if he had addressed these issues and not just said, hey, bro, 2030 01:55:35.079 --> 01:55:38.520 vote for her because I said so, or hey bro, 2031 01:55:39.439 --> 01:55:42.880 vote for her because she's a woman of color, or 2032 01:55:43.039 --> 01:55:46.520 hay bro, vote for her because she's a woman. I 2033 01:55:46.560 --> 01:55:50.319 don't know what his position is. That's the point you're 2034 01:55:50.359 --> 01:55:54.600 approaching African American men as if we don't have deep, 2035 01:55:55.000 --> 01:55:59.840 substantive thought about our country and where we're living. My 2036 01:56:00.199 --> 01:56:03.760 message to the Democratic Party is that we do that. 2037 01:56:03.960 --> 01:56:07.359 I am a financial planner. I've owned my own business 2038 01:56:07.359 --> 01:56:10.640 for thirty years, and I'm concerned about my tax rate. 2039 01:56:10.920 --> 01:56:15.039 I'm concerned about unrealized capital gains and you saying you're 2040 01:56:15.079 --> 01:56:18.239 going to tax them at twenty or twenty eight percent 2041 01:56:18.520 --> 01:56:21.760 even though I haven't sold. Whether it's a stock or 2042 01:56:21.800 --> 01:56:25.760 whether it's a real estate a company, a piece of 2043 01:56:25.800 --> 01:56:28.640 real estate that I own. There are small business owners 2044 01:56:28.720 --> 01:56:31.520 who are African American men who are listening to our 2045 01:56:31.560 --> 01:56:34.920 conversation right now, and they're saying, listen, man, I'm thinking 2046 01:56:34.960 --> 01:56:38.000 about my pocketbook, and I'm thinking about my economics. I'm 2047 01:56:38.039 --> 01:56:40.720 looking for the candidate that's going to make my life better. 2048 01:56:41.079 --> 01:56:45.800 That is what President Barack Obama missed. Talk about the substance, brother, 2049 01:56:46.199 --> 01:56:48.840 and you might get people to vote for your candidate, 2050 01:56:49.079 --> 01:56:51.640 but if your candidate is unwilling to go out there 2051 01:56:51.720 --> 01:56:54.720 and give interviews, get out there and say here's my 2052 01:56:54.800 --> 01:56:58.439 public policy position. Why would you ask an intelligent and 2053 01:56:58.560 --> 01:57:01.880 form person to cast vote for somebody that they don't 2054 01:57:01.920 --> 01:57:03.399 know who their votings. 2055 01:57:03.079 --> 01:57:06.600 Were, well, stated Christopher Smithman, as is always the case 2056 01:57:06.680 --> 01:57:09.359 during the Smith Event every Monday, normally at seven thirty, 2057 01:57:09.399 --> 01:57:12.479 but we accommodate Christopher who wants extra time like today. 2058 01:57:12.520 --> 01:57:16.960 Congratulations Grandpa Smithman, what a wonderful milestone.

Good to have you back in studio, 2095 01:58:54.079 --> 01:58:55.960 Adam to us a pleasure. Hope you on a nice weekend. 2096 01:58:56.119 --> 01:58:58.359 Oh always, Well the bang was one last night, so 2097 01:58:58.479 --> 01:59:00.359 that'd be made better up. 2098 01:59:00.319 --> 01:59:01.800 To find the news on that one. I was happy 2099 01:59:01.800 --> 01:59:03.600 to get the news but didn't stay up for it. 2100 01:59:04.159 --> 01:59:09.199 But well we'll take one, right, that's rightw Hey, how 2101 01:59:09.199 --> 01:59:12.000 about that new stadium anyway, I was talking to Adam 2102 01:59:12.039 --> 01:59:14.640 on the break and just because we've got to start 2103 01:59:14.640 --> 01:59:16.399 with something. He's running for a county commissioner. Of course, 2104 01:59:16.399 --> 01:59:18.359 the stadium deal, it's going to be one of the 2105 01:59:18.399 --> 01:59:24.000 top items for whatever makeup we have on for county commissioners. 2106 01:59:25.119 --> 01:59:28.960 When the Tropicanas Stadium was hit by the hurricane and 2107 01:59:29.000 --> 01:59:30.960 the wind blew the top off, I'm sure you saw 2108 01:59:31.000 --> 01:59:35.239 pictures of that down in Florida Tampa. In the reporting, 2109 01:59:35.319 --> 01:59:38.279 I read they were going to be building or they 2110 01:59:38.319 --> 01:59:42.039 are building a new stadium for the Rays that was 2111 01:59:42.039 --> 01:59:43.840 supposed to open or is supposed to open in twenty 2112 01:59:43.880 --> 01:59:45.680 twenty eight. I don't know if things get advanced or 2113 01:59:45.680 --> 01:59:49.600 they changed their plans, but as reported anyway, one point 2114 01:59:49.600 --> 01:59:52.640 three billion dollars to build an entire brand new stadium. 2115 01:59:52.640 --> 01:59:55.520 And I looked at that. Wait a second, the pay 2116 01:59:55.560 --> 01:59:58.399 Corpse Stadium, you know, Paul Brown Stadium, Bengals Stadium. The 2117 01:59:59.079 --> 02:00:02.960 upgrades they want come in at one point two billion dollars, 2118 02:00:03.199 --> 02:00:04.680 So you can get a brand new stadium for the 2119 02:00:04.680 --> 02:00:07.960 baseball team in Tampa and you get basically for the 2120 02:00:08.000 --> 02:00:10.399 same amount of money some upgrades. 2121 02:00:10.560 --> 02:00:12.960 Well, and I mean what you're saying is that that 2122 02:00:13.039 --> 02:00:14.600 quoted figure you know that's going up? 2123 02:00:16.119 --> 02:00:19.119 When when have you know figure? When have you known that? 2124 02:00:19.600 --> 02:00:22.000 When have you ever heard about a construction project being 2125 02:00:22.000 --> 02:00:23.319 on budget right and on time. 2126 02:00:23.319 --> 02:00:26.880 Especially in these trying times with construction material shortages. 2127 02:00:26.880 --> 02:00:28.960 It relation. I mean, it's gonna take a while to 2128 02:00:28.960 --> 02:00:32.640 get that undergrad shortages. Yeah, yeah, Well, and I mean 2129 02:00:32.760 --> 02:00:34.560 even if Trump gets elected, I mean, you hope he 2130 02:00:34.600 --> 02:00:37.600 writes the ship. But he's talking about tariffs, so you 2131 02:00:37.640 --> 02:00:41.159 know they're gonna be increased costs. Ye, you're gonna have 2132 02:00:41.159 --> 02:00:43.800 some pain before things get better. There's no way you 2133 02:00:43.840 --> 02:00:48.000 can you can write this ship this quickly. It's good 2134 02:00:48.079 --> 02:00:50.359 that there's gonna be some issues. There's gonna be some 2135 02:00:50.399 --> 02:00:52.479 things coming up. He's got to put some things in 2136 02:00:52.560 --> 02:00:56.479 place in order to, you know, put pressure on foreign governments. 2137 02:00:56.960 --> 02:00:59.039 And you're gonna be in the middle of building a 2138 02:00:59.039 --> 02:01:01.239 stadium possibly that's well, that's happening. 2139 02:01:01.319 --> 02:01:03.119 So but you're right, I mean it's crazy. 2140 02:01:03.119 --> 02:01:04.600 You've got some of these places that are like, hey, 2141 02:01:04.600 --> 02:01:06.359 look we're going to build a brand new stadium and 2142 02:01:06.399 --> 02:01:09.479 we're going to significantly increase the fan experience. And then 2143 02:01:09.520 --> 02:01:12.439 you've got Cincinnati in Hamilton County that's hey, let's do 2144 02:01:12.479 --> 02:01:14.479 some upgrades for one point three Let's move Marring Way. 2145 02:01:15.039 --> 02:01:17.199 Let's yeah, move an entire road. Yeah, I was moving 2146 02:01:17.319 --> 02:01:19.279 entire roads so we can have more park space or whatever. 2147 02:01:19.359 --> 02:01:21.720 It's just like, just put a dome stadium on there 2148 02:01:21.760 --> 02:01:22.079 or something. 2149 02:01:22.079 --> 02:01:24.279 I mean, well, don't don't say that, because then they 2150 02:01:24.359 --> 02:01:26.039 might take that ball and run with it and it'll 2151 02:01:26.039 --> 02:01:27.000 be a two trillion dollars. 2152 02:01:27.039 --> 02:01:28.920 Yeah, well it's going to be Yeah, it'd be two 2153 02:01:28.920 --> 02:01:30.000 plus for a dome state. 2154 02:01:30.800 --> 02:01:33.359 And I'm not familiar with what the NFL as an 2155 02:01:33.439 --> 02:01:36.800 organization does. By way of participating, you're contributing to these upgrades, 2156 02:01:36.840 --> 02:01:39.239 but you set off the air that in order to 2157 02:01:39.279 --> 02:01:41.840 get any money from the FL NFL for these types 2158 02:01:41.880 --> 02:01:45.520 of upgrades, it has to improve the fan experience. Is 2159 02:01:45.520 --> 02:01:47.560 that like written somewhere, it. 2160 02:01:47.439 --> 02:01:49.880 Has to significantly improve the fan experience for them to 2161 02:01:49.880 --> 02:01:50.560 give you any money. 2162 02:01:50.600 --> 02:01:54.760 So new office buildings and a new practice field that's 2163 02:01:54.800 --> 02:01:57.279 going to improve the fan experience in what way, shape 2164 02:01:57.359 --> 02:01:57.720 or form? 2165 02:01:57.840 --> 02:02:00.920 That won't but move a marring way probably won't. Add 2166 02:02:00.920 --> 02:02:03.680 in a little green space down there probably won't. Building 2167 02:02:03.720 --> 02:02:09.439 a new stadium would stop it, stop it. Yeah, so there. 2168 02:02:09.560 --> 02:02:11.520 But there's a lot of things that people don't know 2169 02:02:11.760 --> 02:02:15.760 about the NFL and how this whole process works, and 2170 02:02:16.319 --> 02:02:18.439 you barely hear about it from the commissioners. 2171 02:02:19.319 --> 02:02:20.199 And it's crazy to me. 2172 02:02:20.239 --> 02:02:22.640 Somebody asked me the other day, they said, well, you know, 2173 02:02:22.680 --> 02:02:25.680 the commissioners think that you know, they've given this enough time, 2174 02:02:25.800 --> 02:02:28.840 And I said, they've twenty five years to think of this, 2175 02:02:29.079 --> 02:02:29.720 to come up with. 2176 02:02:29.680 --> 02:02:32.720 Something, right. It's not like it just happened, right. 2177 02:02:32.840 --> 02:02:35.439 It's been twenty five years living with the worst negotiated 2178 02:02:35.479 --> 02:02:40.159 stangle stadium build agreement in the foot in football. 2179 02:02:39.880 --> 02:02:40.920 History, absolute worst. 2180 02:02:41.079 --> 02:02:42.960 Mike Brown got such a good deal on NAT he said, 2181 02:02:42.960 --> 02:02:45.199 twenty five years to enjoy the fruits of that deal 2182 02:02:45.279 --> 02:02:47.479 that he got. But now it's time to give back 2183 02:02:47.479 --> 02:02:50.439 to Himil County and get back to the taxpayers. And 2184 02:02:50.560 --> 02:02:52.479 you would think he would come to the table realizing 2185 02:02:52.520 --> 02:02:54.359 how good of a deal he got last time and 2186 02:02:54.960 --> 02:02:57.640 wanted to negotiate. But here's the thing too, Brian. People 2187 02:02:57.640 --> 02:02:59.199 don't think about so one hundred and twenty five million 2188 02:02:59.239 --> 02:03:01.319 dollars he got. It's called G five money. He gets 2189 02:03:01.399 --> 02:03:05.840 that from the NFL, so it is essentially a loan 2190 02:03:06.359 --> 02:03:08.960 on future revenues. So the one hundred and twenty five 2191 02:03:09.000 --> 02:03:11.880 million that he put towards the upgrades, it didn't really 2192 02:03:11.880 --> 02:03:14.119 come out of his pocket necessarily. It was kind of 2193 02:03:14.159 --> 02:03:15.960 like money he was going to make anyway. And it's 2194 02:03:16.000 --> 02:03:18.279 like a loan from the NFL. So it's called G 2195 02:03:18.439 --> 02:03:21.159 five money. That's money the NFL gave him. Now, the 2196 02:03:21.319 --> 02:03:23.359 chance is that the Hamilt kind of commissioners go to 2197 02:03:23.359 --> 02:03:26.720 the NFL and say, hey, we're poor, feel sorry for us, 2198 02:03:26.880 --> 02:03:32.159 give us money, slim chance with a stadium upgrade because 2199 02:03:32.359 --> 02:03:35.800 of that. I don't even know how you would quantify 2200 02:03:35.880 --> 02:03:38.960 what is a significant upgrade to the fan experience. I 2201 02:03:39.039 --> 02:03:41.760 don't know what that means, but yeah, it usually doesn't 2202 02:03:41.760 --> 02:03:43.680 apply to upgrades. It usually applies to new stadium. 2203 02:03:43.720 --> 02:03:46.800 Significant increase in the fan experience for me has been 2204 02:03:46.840 --> 02:03:50.479 the realization that it's a hell of a lot more fun, convenient, 2205 02:03:50.560 --> 02:03:54.640 and less expensive to enjoy the football game in my home. 2206 02:03:54.720 --> 02:03:57.680 That's everybody right, well, and that's the thing too. So 2207 02:03:57.800 --> 02:04:01.119 you're using that stadium primarily for eight nine games a year, 2208 02:04:01.199 --> 02:04:03.680 I know, there's nothing else. I mean, do you want 2209 02:04:03.720 --> 02:04:07.159 to spend one point three billion dollars on upgrades? 2210 02:04:07.840 --> 02:04:08.079 Right? 2211 02:04:08.119 --> 02:04:10.600 I mean, and keep the same deal in place. I 2212 02:04:10.640 --> 02:04:13.439 think Mike Brown can renew this lease essentially for another 2213 02:04:13.479 --> 02:04:16.600 ten years. The lease he has in place now, that's 2214 02:04:16.640 --> 02:04:18.239 with the terms that he has now for the next 2215 02:04:18.279 --> 02:04:21.159 ten years. Every two years he can renew it for 2216 02:04:21.359 --> 02:04:24.439 five times. He could do that, so all the deal 2217 02:04:24.520 --> 02:04:27.399 that deal from back in the day was so terrible. 2218 02:04:27.479 --> 02:04:28.800 He could just keep renewing. 2219 02:04:28.479 --> 02:04:31.640 That well, so what you know, as commissioner, what would 2220 02:04:31.680 --> 02:04:34.119 you do? I guess one of the things my immediate 2221 02:04:34.199 --> 02:04:36.560 reaction is when I saw the proposal for the so 2222 02:04:36.640 --> 02:04:41.319 called fan experience improvements is well under the and I've 2223 02:04:41.359 --> 02:04:43.760 never read that contract. I've just read pieces of it, 2224 02:04:43.800 --> 02:04:46.079 and it's been so widely reported about how bad it is. 2225 02:04:46.159 --> 02:04:50.079 And I understand all that, but that the obligations under 2226 02:04:50.079 --> 02:04:52.520 the lease agreement for the Hamilton County taxpayers are for 2227 02:04:52.680 --> 02:04:56.960 improvements to this stadium that is not building a brand new, 2228 02:04:57.159 --> 02:05:02.720 freestanding office complex next to the stadium. So that hundred 2229 02:05:02.720 --> 02:05:06.239 and fifty million plus dollars that's the largest chunk of 2230 02:05:06.279 --> 02:05:09.800 the what they are asking for, doesn't have anything to 2231 02:05:09.800 --> 02:05:11.359 do with the stadium itself. 2232 02:05:11.640 --> 02:05:14.239 Yeah, not that that doesn't sound like that's very fan 2233 02:05:14.359 --> 02:05:15.239 experience to me. 2234 02:05:15.479 --> 02:05:17.159 No offices. 2235 02:05:17.239 --> 02:05:19.039 I doubt fans will even set foot in the office 2236 02:05:19.079 --> 02:05:19.840 at any given time. 2237 02:05:20.000 --> 02:05:22.800 Yeah, in that stadium, I mean you remember hearing years back. 2238 02:05:22.920 --> 02:05:25.199 I mean that there were things falling apart. There was 2239 02:05:25.319 --> 02:05:27.760 you know, concrete chipped and all this other stuff that 2240 02:05:27.800 --> 02:05:31.000 they claimed that was happening to the stadium. So I mean, 2241 02:05:31.680 --> 02:05:33.560 at the end of the day, Brian like, we have 2242 02:05:33.640 --> 02:05:37.119 to get smarter about how we interact with the Bengals. 2243 02:05:37.239 --> 02:05:39.560 I mean, you've got players down there, and you've got 2244 02:05:39.920 --> 02:05:42.880 Mike Brown and the Bengals themselves that they all have 2245 02:05:42.920 --> 02:05:45.840 their own little charities. Right there's money that the county 2246 02:05:45.880 --> 02:05:49.439 spends right now on social services that could potentially be 2247 02:05:49.520 --> 02:05:52.439 offset by some of these charitable things that the players 2248 02:05:52.479 --> 02:05:55.039 and the Bengals themselves are doing. That takes some of 2249 02:05:55.079 --> 02:05:58.399 the pressure if we're going to spend money, you're already 2250 02:05:58.439 --> 02:06:00.520 spending money on these social services, just of money on 2251 02:06:00.560 --> 02:06:02.439 the Bengals. Hey, if we're going to do something with 2252 02:06:02.479 --> 02:06:05.159 the Bengals, could we work better with the Bengals to 2253 02:06:05.199 --> 02:06:07.479 get some of that money to help offset and alleviate 2254 02:06:07.560 --> 02:06:10.359 some of the money that taxpayers are already spending on 2255 02:06:10.439 --> 02:06:14.239 some of these social services by leveraging the charitable good 2256 02:06:14.319 --> 02:06:16.920 that the Bengals themselves and the players are doing. I 2257 02:06:16.920 --> 02:06:18.800 mean there's things like that that people don't even think 2258 02:06:18.840 --> 02:06:21.680 about that we could be doing. I mean, there's we're 2259 02:06:21.800 --> 02:06:23.600 never going to be able to negotiot Mike Brown. We 2260 02:06:23.680 --> 02:06:27.880 have no leverage unless there's another buyer because the art 2261 02:06:27.920 --> 02:06:30.399 model rule kicks in if there's another buyer, And I 2262 02:06:30.439 --> 02:06:32.399 don't know how if everybody listened. I don't know if 2263 02:06:32.439 --> 02:06:34.159 you know how this Art Modell rule thing kicks in. 2264 02:06:34.640 --> 02:06:37.199 But Mike Brown essentially can't move the team if there's 2265 02:06:37.239 --> 02:06:40.159 another qualified buyer, it makes it much harder for him 2266 02:06:40.159 --> 02:06:43.079 to move. And I've heard through my various sources that 2267 02:06:43.119 --> 02:06:46.039 Mike Brown would be happy moving to Mexico City, right 2268 02:06:46.600 --> 02:06:49.840 and if he doesn't get his way, essentially, is what 2269 02:06:50.039 --> 02:06:53.880 I'm hearing. So you have no leverage as Hamilton County, 2270 02:06:53.920 --> 02:06:57.800 as voters, we have no leverage unless there's another qualified buyer. Well, 2271 02:06:57.840 --> 02:07:00.720 how many billionaires are floating around Cincinnati that can afford 2272 02:07:00.760 --> 02:07:04.399 to buy a team? And the NFL only wants one person. 2273 02:07:04.439 --> 02:07:06.840 They want one buyer of the team that they can 2274 02:07:06.880 --> 02:07:09.760 deal with. They don't want a group of multimillionaires to 2275 02:07:09.800 --> 02:07:12.039 go in and buy it because they need someone at 2276 02:07:12.079 --> 02:07:12.399 the head. 2277 02:07:12.479 --> 02:07:12.680 Right. 2278 02:07:12.760 --> 02:07:13.960 That's the rule right now. 2279 02:07:14.319 --> 02:07:16.439 But has anybody ever thought let's go to the NFL 2280 02:07:16.479 --> 02:07:18.479 and talk to them, because not every city's New York 2281 02:07:18.479 --> 02:07:21.720 in LA. It's getting more and more expensive for cities 2282 02:07:21.760 --> 02:07:27.159 like Cincinnati and Pittsburgh, even Chicago to have an NFL 2283 02:07:27.239 --> 02:07:29.560 team and deal with these stadium issues and all this. 2284 02:07:29.600 --> 02:07:31.840 Every once in a while they have a rule in 2285 02:07:31.920 --> 02:07:35.439 place that they want one person to be able to 2286 02:07:36.800 --> 02:07:40.119 go to. But nobody's ever thought about potentially doing something 2287 02:07:40.159 --> 02:07:43.279 like a crowdfund where we can get the fans to 2288 02:07:43.359 --> 02:07:44.079 own the stadium. 2289 02:07:44.079 --> 02:07:46.840 Now they're owned the team, like Green. 2290 02:07:46.680 --> 02:07:50.640 Bay, but teams can't do it now because of this 2291 02:07:50.720 --> 02:07:53.960 new rule that the NFL put in place. But the 2292 02:07:54.000 --> 02:07:57.319 way around that potentially could be you do something like it, 2293 02:07:57.359 --> 02:07:58.960 and I'm going to go over some people's heads here. 2294 02:07:59.159 --> 02:08:03.840 Essentially token the ownership. You put it into an SPV, 2295 02:08:03.920 --> 02:08:07.199 a special purpose vehicle like a trust. That trust has 2296 02:08:07.239 --> 02:08:10.600 a board and they have a president. So now even 2297 02:08:10.640 --> 02:08:14.520 though you've crowdfunded the team, right and you've opened that 2298 02:08:14.640 --> 02:08:16.439 up to fans to be able to purchase the team, 2299 02:08:16.720 --> 02:08:18.920 you still have someone in place that the NFL can 2300 02:08:19.000 --> 02:08:22.399 go to. So the idea is is, look, NFL, it's 2301 02:08:22.399 --> 02:08:25.159 getting much harder for people to own this. We only 2302 02:08:25.199 --> 02:08:27.239 have one billionaire in talent, and maybe there's a couple 2303 02:08:27.279 --> 02:08:29.399 other billionaires, but they already own a sports team. So 2304 02:08:29.600 --> 02:08:31.159 how many other billionaires are going to step in and 2305 02:08:31.159 --> 02:08:33.680 want to buy this team from Mike Brown? There could 2306 02:08:33.680 --> 02:08:35.399 be somebody out there, but they're probably not going to 2307 02:08:35.439 --> 02:08:38.560 be local to Cincinnati. If we, as local people, want 2308 02:08:38.560 --> 02:08:41.720 to keep that team here, that's really the only other way, 2309 02:08:41.840 --> 02:08:44.079 that's the only way you're going to ever get leverage 2310 02:08:44.560 --> 02:08:47.199 for Mike Brown, is if we have an offer on 2311 02:08:47.239 --> 02:08:50.119 the table to purchase the team. 2312 02:08:50.520 --> 02:08:52.880 Organizing that effort could be quite a challenge, and I 2313 02:08:52.960 --> 02:08:55.079 suspect the NFL would do anything in its power to 2314 02:08:55.079 --> 02:08:56.600 prevent that from happening as well. 2315 02:08:56.640 --> 02:08:58.640 Possibly, but you got to talk to them. I mean, 2316 02:08:58.640 --> 02:09:01.319 they're not going to give us a half billion dollars either. 2317 02:09:01.840 --> 02:09:04.960 And as we stand right now, because I haven't seen 2318 02:09:05.000 --> 02:09:09.520 any reporting on what the current commissioners are doing relating 2319 02:09:09.560 --> 02:09:13.560 to the stadium deal, the negotiations, the improvements, the obligations, 2320 02:09:13.640 --> 02:09:16.279 or you know, preparing a brand new lease agreement when 2321 02:09:16.319 --> 02:09:20.159 this one ultimately expires, which it's going to. So nothing. 2322 02:09:20.319 --> 02:09:22.520 So we don't know if there's been any outreach, nothing 2323 02:09:22.520 --> 02:09:24.079 to report on that. We don't know what the NFL 2324 02:09:24.119 --> 02:09:26.479 has said, if anybody's talked to the NFL. We are 2325 02:09:26.479 --> 02:09:29.279 in the dark, and that's one of the more frustrating 2326 02:09:29.520 --> 02:09:33.199 things about this election. We just really have little handle 2327 02:09:33.239 --> 02:09:34.439 on what the commissioners are doing. 2328 02:09:34.640 --> 02:09:36.279 Yeah, the only thing I've heard of, And I've been 2329 02:09:36.279 --> 02:09:39.479 in some forums recently with the other commissioners, and Alisha 2330 02:09:39.560 --> 02:09:42.920 Reese is talking to the NFL about getting us some money. 2331 02:09:43.239 --> 02:09:47.840 So there's no progress necessary except for political talk. 2332 02:09:47.840 --> 02:09:50.239 All right, Well, at least she's got to do it, yeah, 2333 02:09:50.279 --> 02:09:52.640 something apparently, we'll give her a little credit for that. 2334 02:09:52.880 --> 02:09:54.680 Age sixteen will continue with Adam Kaylor find him on 2335 02:09:54.720 --> 02:09:57.880 line at Adam Kaylor Koehler dot com.

I can't encourage you enough to 2375 02:11:40.880 --> 02:11:43.000 head on over to Adam Kayler dot com and check 2376 02:11:43.039 --> 02:11:45.159 his background out where he is on the issues, and 2377 02:11:45.600 --> 02:11:49.319 of course the issues transcend. You know, the commissioner's race 2378 02:11:49.359 --> 02:11:53.279 course stadium deal one of the bigger ones. But we've 2379 02:11:53.319 --> 02:11:55.720 got some really important issues in Ohio. And as you 2380 02:11:55.720 --> 02:11:58.520 were telling me, the polling shows Donald Trump on you 2381 02:11:58.600 --> 02:12:01.880 gov is now eight points ahead. 2382 02:12:02.159 --> 02:12:06.119 Yep, yep of Harris Harris. At this point last in 2383 02:12:06.199 --> 02:12:09.680 twenty twenty, it was zero right, they were to God 2384 02:12:09.760 --> 02:12:12.239 had them dead tide, dead tide. Trump ended up winning 2385 02:12:12.239 --> 02:12:13.520 by eight in Ohio. 2386 02:12:13.640 --> 02:12:15.920 So your point is, if they use the same methodology, 2387 02:12:16.000 --> 02:12:18.479 then Trump could be as high as sixteen points ahead. 2388 02:12:18.520 --> 02:12:21.680 That's right, And most pollsters have trouble with rural Americans. 2389 02:12:21.720 --> 02:12:24.640 So getting out in you know, Lime, Ohio and the 2390 02:12:24.640 --> 02:12:28.119 places like that to start. You know, polling people and 2391 02:12:28.199 --> 02:12:31.439 Republicans don't really reply to poles the same way Democrats do. 2392 02:12:31.680 --> 02:12:34.039 So if you look at the methodology of these polls, 2393 02:12:34.079 --> 02:12:36.960 a lot of times they oversample Democrats, and they oversample 2394 02:12:37.239 --> 02:12:38.840 left leaning independence. 2395 02:12:39.199 --> 02:12:42.760 Well, and let us not overlook the reality that there 2396 02:12:42.760 --> 02:12:45.399 are so many people who won't even admit that they're 2397 02:12:45.439 --> 02:12:48.520 going to be voting for Trump. They demonized them so 2398 02:12:48.640 --> 02:12:51.720 thoroughly that to even utter the words I'm voting for Trump, 2399 02:12:51.920 --> 02:12:54.359 you know, invokes the ire of so many people outside. 2400 02:12:54.359 --> 02:12:56.279 It's like, you know what, I'm not even going to 2401 02:12:56.319 --> 02:12:58.079 play this game. I'm going to do what I want, 2402 02:12:58.079 --> 02:13:00.359 shut up, get away from my face, or lie or 2403 02:13:00.439 --> 02:13:02.159 otherwise just not even participating in the poll. 2404 02:13:02.359 --> 02:13:04.960 Well, this is why people were sick of Democrats. I mean, 2405 02:13:05.039 --> 02:13:07.399 the whole time COVID was happening, what did they do. 2406 02:13:07.560 --> 02:13:11.199 I mean it was like totalitarianism in this country. Yeah, 2407 02:13:11.239 --> 02:13:13.399 and the way they treated their neighbors, the way they 2408 02:13:13.479 --> 02:13:15.720 you know, told on their neighbors. I mean that happened 2409 02:13:15.720 --> 02:13:19.239 throughout history right in some bad ways, but they just 2410 02:13:19.279 --> 02:13:21.880 turned into crazy people. And I mean Andrew Pappas on 2411 02:13:21.920 --> 02:13:23.520 Facebook the other day you saw it too. He just 2412 02:13:23.560 --> 02:13:26.920 posted a lady and Anderson kicking a Trump sign in 2413 02:13:26.920 --> 02:13:28.840 someone's yard and trying to pull that a ground and 2414 02:13:28.880 --> 02:13:30.880 she got on her knees and she's punching it. 2415 02:13:30.680 --> 02:13:34.840 It's like the sign had molested her young child or something. 2416 02:13:35.079 --> 02:13:36.960 Unhinged, totally unhinged. 2417 02:13:37.039 --> 02:13:39.000 I don't know what is going on in My wife 2418 02:13:39.039 --> 02:13:40.960 and I were sitting here in a conversation last night 2419 02:13:41.000 --> 02:13:46.000 about the difference between urban liberals and suburban liberals, because 2420 02:13:46.000 --> 02:13:49.399 now you've got this relatively new thing, the suburban liberal 2421 02:13:49.800 --> 02:13:51.560 and where did they come from? You talk to guys 2422 02:13:51.560 --> 02:13:54.279 like Pappas He says, Yeah, these are city people that 2423 02:13:54.439 --> 02:13:56.000 you know, they got sick of the crime, they got 2424 02:13:56.000 --> 02:13:58.840 sick of the schools. They moved out to Anderson, or 2425 02:13:58.840 --> 02:14:01.640 they moved it you know, Blue or wherever. But they 2426 02:14:01.680 --> 02:14:04.840 keep voting the same way. It's it's it's wild to me. 2427 02:14:05.079 --> 02:14:08.439 And and for whatever reason, they believe MSNBC. They believe this, 2428 02:14:08.960 --> 02:14:11.800 you know, all the stuff that Rachel Maddow tells them. 2429 02:14:12.159 --> 02:14:13.960 But there is a difference. I feel like the the 2430 02:14:14.119 --> 02:14:17.520 urban liberal is is much more educated. You can kind 2431 02:14:17.520 --> 02:14:20.319 of have a conversation with them. Uh, But the suburban 2432 02:14:20.399 --> 02:14:22.399 liberal for whatever reason. I don't know what's going on 2433 02:14:22.439 --> 02:14:24.159 with them. They seem to be almost worse. 2434 02:14:24.800 --> 02:14:27.760 It was that woke college education that did him in, 2435 02:14:27.880 --> 02:14:28.359 I think. 2436 02:14:28.359 --> 02:14:30.520 And they never got over it. Right now, they never. 2437 02:14:30.600 --> 02:14:30.880 They don't. 2438 02:14:30.960 --> 02:14:34.640 Yeah, they don't interact, and they they demonize anyone who's 2439 02:14:34.680 --> 02:14:37.279 voting for Trump is if you're some kind of racist, 2440 02:14:37.640 --> 02:14:38.439 fascist person. 2441 02:14:38.439 --> 02:14:40.520 And they use those words on a regular basis. 2442 02:14:40.840 --> 02:14:44.359 That's the Tavlovian response. It's baked into the cake. It's 2443 02:14:44.399 --> 02:14:47.560 just immediately knee jerk reaction. They followed what they're you know, 2444 02:14:47.680 --> 02:14:50.239 MSNBC lords and masters tell them to say, and they 2445 02:14:50.279 --> 02:14:52.199 don't have any context for why they're saying it. 2446 02:14:52.399 --> 02:14:54.760 That is why they're losing. That is why they're behind 2447 02:14:54.840 --> 02:14:56.359 right now. And then they you know, they send out 2448 02:14:56.439 --> 02:14:59.479 Kamala who you know can't talk without a teleprompter. Well 2449 02:14:59.520 --> 02:15:01.520 and even when she's hounds drunk at the time. I mean, 2450 02:15:01.560 --> 02:15:03.119 it's crazy, well it is. 2451 02:15:03.199 --> 02:15:06.359 And you know, talk with Christopher Smithman earlier in the 2452 02:15:06.399 --> 02:15:10.039 program about Barack Obama giving an earfull of black men 2453 02:15:10.079 --> 02:15:10.720 about they need. 2454 02:15:10.640 --> 02:15:13.079 To I don't know if you've seen the tiktoks on that. 2455 02:15:13.119 --> 02:15:17.159 Seen a ton of it there lose, really angry black 2456 02:15:17.239 --> 02:15:19.600 men out there coming back and saying you've got to 2457 02:15:19.600 --> 02:15:20.560 be out of your mind. 2458 02:15:20.560 --> 02:15:22.720 By all, Well, you want to talk about uh, you 2459 02:15:22.760 --> 02:15:25.600 want to talk about shifts, Let's talk about the African 2460 02:15:25.600 --> 02:15:27.800 American shift, and let's talk about the Hispanic shift. 2461 02:15:27.880 --> 02:15:29.600 Yeah, we'll talk a little bit about that.

I'm Jason Earhart on fifty five KRC. 2494 02:16:59.520 --> 02:17:05.000 The A thirty fifty five Kersiti talk station brought Thomas 2495 02:17:05.000 --> 02:17:07.479 with Adam Taylor and studio Rnning for Hamilt County Commissioner 2496 02:17:07.479 --> 02:17:11.120 and talking about this polling numbers which could very much 2497 02:17:11.159 --> 02:17:13.000 in your to your benefit near to the benefit of 2498 02:17:13.000 --> 02:17:15.879 other down further down ballot races. Of course, you got 2499 02:17:15.879 --> 02:17:18.879 the Bernie Marina shared brown and you know they continue 2500 02:17:18.879 --> 02:17:21.040 to run ads on with Bernie Marina saying he's going 2501 02:17:21.079 --> 02:17:24.600 to implement a nationwide abortion band. Me Donald Trump's even 2502 02:17:24.639 --> 02:17:27.479 said no, I would never sign that, and then the 2503 02:17:27.520 --> 02:17:29.920 Supreme Court pointed out that no, this is not something 2504 02:17:29.959 --> 02:17:31.959 over which the federal government even has to say, and 2505 02:17:32.159 --> 02:17:34.559 it is a state's issue. So the idea of these 2506 02:17:34.600 --> 02:17:38.040 ads keep running. I guess you know that that to 2507 02:17:38.079 --> 02:17:41.159 me is insulting. It's insulting to me because I know 2508 02:17:41.239 --> 02:17:42.040 better than that. 2509 02:17:42.040 --> 02:17:43.479 That's right, that's right. 2510 02:17:43.600 --> 02:17:46.559 Well, it's sort of taking advantage to the low information vote, 2511 02:17:46.600 --> 02:17:49.840 or not to insult anybody's intelligence intelligence, But on matters political, 2512 02:17:49.920 --> 02:17:52.719 a lot of people don't pay any attention. Anybody runs 2513 02:17:52.719 --> 02:17:55.920 around going, you know, Donald Trump races, xenopho, homophobe whatever. 2514 02:17:56.239 --> 02:17:58.879 They're not paying attention because nobody has able to illustrate 2515 02:17:58.959 --> 02:18:01.520 or demonstrate a specific in its instance where Donald Trump 2516 02:18:01.559 --> 02:18:04.600 has engaged in, or adopted or embraced that type of 2517 02:18:04.639 --> 02:18:06.040 philosophy anywhere. 2518 02:18:06.680 --> 02:18:08.959 No, he's a known commodity. He was already president for 2519 02:18:09.000 --> 02:18:11.639 four years, right, it's the Roe v. Wade thing, like 2520 02:18:11.680 --> 02:18:14.719 they lost their minds. But that was the Supreme Court decision. 2521 02:18:14.959 --> 02:18:18.040 But they blamed Trump for that because Trump put a 2522 02:18:18.079 --> 02:18:21.840 couple of those Supreme Court justices on the Supreme Court. 2523 02:18:22.239 --> 02:18:25.799 So they blamed Trump for that. But if Trump wanted 2524 02:18:25.799 --> 02:18:27.840 to do some national abortion ban, wouldn't he a push 2525 02:18:27.840 --> 02:18:28.840 for that when he was president? 2526 02:18:28.959 --> 02:18:34.000 Well and appropriately, So people blame the nineteen seventy three 2527 02:18:34.079 --> 02:18:39.079 Roe v. Wade Court on engaging in liberal activism judicial activism. 2528 02:18:39.680 --> 02:18:42.959 You know, Donald Trump appointed conservative justice. In other words, 2529 02:18:42.959 --> 02:18:45.639 they follow the letter of the Constitution. They don't make 2530 02:18:45.760 --> 02:18:48.680 up and write laws. They interpret the laws that are 2531 02:18:48.719 --> 02:18:51.280 in front of them in the context of the Constitution. 2532 02:18:51.760 --> 02:18:55.000 And when that case made it, they said, wait a second, 2533 02:18:55.200 --> 02:18:58.760 this isn't even a power the federal government enjoys. 2534 02:18:59.639 --> 02:19:04.079 The Democrats forget, we live in the United States of America. 2535 02:19:05.000 --> 02:19:07.239 They love the federal government. The federal government is their 2536 02:19:07.239 --> 02:19:07.959 god now. 2537 02:19:08.079 --> 02:19:11.239 It is, And this pesky states that have different philosophies 2538 02:19:11.239 --> 02:19:15.479 and ideas because the constituents feel differently than the left. 2539 02:19:15.520 --> 02:19:18.520 They can't handle that. Yeah, I mean, they can't live 2540 02:19:18.600 --> 02:19:21.239 in a world where someone isn't in one hundred percent 2541 02:19:21.360 --> 02:19:24.959 unified agreement with all their batcrap insane ideology. We have 2542 02:19:25.120 --> 02:19:28.840 legitimate concerns as Republicans. We look at Kamala, the fact 2543 02:19:28.879 --> 02:19:32.479 that her dad was a Marxist professor, the fact that 2544 02:19:32.520 --> 02:19:36.559 she's Canadian, the fact that you know, all these things 2545 02:19:37.159 --> 02:19:41.319 in her rhetoric, the things she said about taxing unrealized 2546 02:19:41.360 --> 02:19:45.079 capital gains. That is crazy talk. I mean, that is 2547 02:19:45.200 --> 02:19:49.120 so far left, it's insane. The rhetoric around the First 2548 02:19:49.120 --> 02:19:51.479 and Second Amendment that you've heard from the left, and 2549 02:19:51.520 --> 02:19:53.879 they'll gaslight you on this. Oh yeah, but these are 2550 02:19:53.959 --> 02:19:57.600 real concerns. I'm talking about the structure of our country, 2551 02:19:57.760 --> 02:20:04.000 foundational document, the Constitution. They want to change that right 2552 02:20:04.040 --> 02:20:06.799 because you know, they're not getting their things across that 2553 02:20:06.799 --> 02:20:08.879 they want to get across to lead us down the 2554 02:20:08.879 --> 02:20:09.840 path of communism. 2555 02:20:10.040 --> 02:20:13.520 But they're not concerned. What concerns do they have? Their 2556 02:20:13.559 --> 02:20:16.920 concerns are make believe Trump is going to institute a 2557 02:20:17.000 --> 02:20:18.159 national abortion ban. 2558 02:20:18.559 --> 02:20:19.200 No he's not. 2559 02:20:19.319 --> 02:20:21.479 He's come out and said he's not going to institute 2560 02:20:21.479 --> 02:20:22.440 a national abortion ban. 2561 02:20:22.879 --> 02:20:25.639 And he believes in exceptions for any ban on abortion, 2562 02:20:25.719 --> 02:20:27.840 including rape inces life of the mother, and those are 2563 02:20:27.879 --> 02:20:30.159 things that the left has been in favor of a 2564 02:20:30.159 --> 02:20:32.479 long time. And there's Donald Trump on record he does 2565 02:20:32.520 --> 02:20:35.760 not believe in a one hundred percent abortion ban, notwithstanding 2566 02:20:35.760 --> 02:20:37.200 the fact that he's not going to have a damn 2567 02:20:37.239 --> 02:20:40.799 bit of control over any bands or proposals. Neither will 2568 02:20:40.799 --> 02:20:43.959 Commotion and neither will she. Yeah, that irks me to 2569 02:20:43.959 --> 02:20:47.520 no end. What else let's see here in terms of 2570 02:20:47.559 --> 02:20:51.719 the the idea that Trump is, if he's really truly 2571 02:20:51.760 --> 02:20:53.879 doing that, well, I mean, there's an opportunity to get 2572 02:20:53.920 --> 02:20:57.639 Bernie Moraino elected. We can get Orlando's Sanza around here 2573 02:20:57.639 --> 02:20:58.479 in Hamilton County. 2574 02:20:58.479 --> 02:21:00.959 What a brilliant how much is better is than Landsman? 2575 02:21:01.040 --> 02:21:01.760 It's crazy. 2576 02:21:01.840 --> 02:21:03.879 Oh, the debate was just absolutely You've. 2577 02:21:03.760 --> 02:21:05.159 Got to be in a cult to not look at 2578 02:21:05.159 --> 02:21:09.159 their resumes and see that Sanza is just far and 2579 02:21:09.239 --> 02:21:13.760 away a much better candidate. I mean, west Point, He's 2580 02:21:13.760 --> 02:21:19.200 a CPA, he's a prosecutor, a beautiful wife raising an 2581 02:21:19.280 --> 02:21:23.159 unbelievably great family. I mean, the guy is, he's got 2582 02:21:23.159 --> 02:21:25.559 everything you want a candidate. And then you look at Landsman, 2583 02:21:26.120 --> 02:21:28.959 defund the police, all this other nonsense that he's done, 2584 02:21:29.120 --> 02:21:31.440 and I just I can't wrap my head around, like 2585 02:21:31.559 --> 02:21:34.280 the fact that we're just don't live in a logical 2586 02:21:34.319 --> 02:21:35.040 world anymore. 2587 02:21:35.120 --> 02:21:36.840 Well, and you know the other thing I can take 2588 02:21:36.840 --> 02:21:38.600 some great comfort in, and I saw this off that 2589 02:21:38.639 --> 02:21:40.399 piece in the Wall Street Journal about what's going on 2590 02:21:40.479 --> 02:21:45.079 out in California where they, you know, engage in this 2591 02:21:45.200 --> 02:21:51.319 progressive sort of experiment defunding or rather not criminalizing drugs 2592 02:21:51.639 --> 02:21:54.639 or decriminalizing them. And then also this whole idea that 2593 02:21:54.719 --> 02:21:56.879 you know, less than nine hundred and fifty dollars is 2594 02:21:56.920 --> 02:21:59.920 going to be a disdemeanor that was prop forty seven. Well, 2595 02:22:00.959 --> 02:22:04.239 because of the social costs have gotten so bad for Californians, 2596 02:22:04.920 --> 02:22:09.120 they are backing what's called Proposition thirty six, which is 2597 02:22:09.159 --> 02:22:12.440 going to be voting on. They will restore penalties as 2598 02:22:12.440 --> 02:22:16.680 a criminal determ to and rehabilitation as an inducement. For example, 2599 02:22:17.000 --> 02:22:20.719 drug traffickers, you will get an opportunity to get back 2600 02:22:20.719 --> 02:22:23.879 into treatment rather than prosecution if you pursue that path. 2601 02:22:23.959 --> 02:22:26.280 Otherwise they're going to lock you up like they used to. 2602 02:22:26.360 --> 02:22:28.799 So that puts people in a position to turn their 2603 02:22:28.840 --> 02:22:31.719 lives around. But you have to criminalize the behavior up 2604 02:22:31.760 --> 02:22:34.319 front to get them to enter these programs. They threw 2605 02:22:34.360 --> 02:22:36.840 that out before and they're living the reality of it. 2606 02:22:37.280 --> 02:22:40.200 And there's a direct correlation between drug use and abuse 2607 02:22:40.280 --> 02:22:43.360 and crimes. Duh, because people who are whacked down addicted 2608 02:22:43.360 --> 02:22:46.200 to drugs usually aren't holding a steady job, so they've 2609 02:22:46.200 --> 02:22:48.920 got to steal things in order to uh, And. 2610 02:22:48.799 --> 02:22:50.600 You're supposed to deal with it. You just get your 2611 02:22:50.600 --> 02:22:53.040 stuff stolen, and you're supposed to just be fine with that. 2612 02:22:53.319 --> 02:22:55.920 Yeah, but get a load of this. Even in blue 2613 02:22:56.280 --> 02:22:59.319 as far left wing state as you can get, California. 2614 02:22:59.360 --> 02:23:01.760 You see, Burke the Institute of Government Studies pulled at 2615 02:23:01.799 --> 02:23:05.680 his polled last week, voters favor this Prop thirty six 2616 02:23:06.680 --> 02:23:09.319 by a three to one margin, with the strongest support 2617 02:23:09.319 --> 02:23:11.239 among Latinos. How about that. 2618 02:23:11.440 --> 02:23:14.680 Yeah, people don't want crime in their neighborhood. And this 2619 02:23:14.799 --> 02:23:17.360 is the wild thing. You know, the left all well, 2620 02:23:17.399 --> 02:23:21.799 black people can't get IDs. You know, they think it's insulting. 2621 02:23:21.840 --> 02:23:25.239 Everything they do is is like they call, you know, 2622 02:23:25.399 --> 02:23:27.680 Republicans racist, But it's like you guys are kind of 2623 02:23:27.719 --> 02:23:30.520 undercover races, Like you don't think black people can get IDs, 2624 02:23:30.559 --> 02:23:32.840 you don't think black people want safety in their neighborhoods. 2625 02:23:33.319 --> 02:23:35.840 It's crazy to me. I live in an African American neighborhood. 2626 02:23:36.719 --> 02:23:38.479 My neighbor, her son just got shot and killed on 2627 02:23:38.479 --> 02:23:41.079 Eastliff and I on August twentieth. She's on my front 2628 02:23:41.399 --> 02:23:44.239 the stoop of my house the other day crying about it. 2629 02:23:44.239 --> 02:23:46.319 It's been you know, a month or so, and I'm like, 2630 02:23:46.479 --> 02:23:47.559 you know, Stacy, what's wrong? 2631 02:23:47.959 --> 02:23:48.360 Still cry? 2632 02:23:48.639 --> 02:23:48.799 You know? 2633 02:23:48.920 --> 02:23:49.280 My son? 2634 02:23:49.319 --> 02:23:51.360 I'm thinking about him. And it's just like this kind 2635 02:23:51.360 --> 02:23:52.959 of stuff happens all the time. There's a dry by 2636 02:23:53.360 --> 02:23:55.719 at the house caddy corner from us. My neighbor's Shorty, 2637 02:23:55.879 --> 02:23:57.920 right right next door to us. There's an empty line 2638 02:23:57.959 --> 02:24:00.120 in between us and her. She's sweeping up something. We 2639 02:24:00.200 --> 02:24:01.959 go over there the other day, Oh hey, Shorty, how's 2640 02:24:01.959 --> 02:24:05.719 it going. Bullet shellcasings. Oh my, there's still a bullet 2641 02:24:05.719 --> 02:24:07.959 hole in the window. We had a bullet come through. 2642 02:24:08.120 --> 02:24:09.559 We talked about this. We had a bullet come through 2643 02:24:09.600 --> 02:24:12.239 my bedroom window. It's just like this kind of stuff 2644 02:24:12.319 --> 02:24:14.840 happens on a regular basis in a city. And then 2645 02:24:14.879 --> 02:24:17.920 we get gas lit that crime is down and they 2646 02:24:17.959 --> 02:24:20.079 just broadly use that crime is down for who? 2647 02:24:20.760 --> 02:24:21.760 Who is crime down for? 2648 02:24:22.559 --> 02:24:25.760 Yeah, it's like the Biden and Harris running around talking 2649 02:24:25.760 --> 02:24:28.120 about it. No, don't believe your wallet, don't believe your 2650 02:24:28.120 --> 02:24:30.239 own eyes when you're at grocery shopping. Believe what we're 2651 02:24:30.239 --> 02:24:33.479 telling you that everything is great. Look at the stock market. Yeah, 2652 02:24:33.479 --> 02:24:35.799 I'm sure that that really helps a low income inner 2653 02:24:35.799 --> 02:24:39.040 city person struggling with rent and grocery bills, that the 2654 02:24:39.079 --> 02:24:41.920 stock market happens to the up when they're not invested 2655 02:24:41.920 --> 02:24:43.920 in it. Yeah, that's a real winninger. Hold on, we'll 2656 02:24:43.959 --> 02:24:46.520 continue with Adam Kaylor just after a brief few words, 2657 02:24:46.520 --> 02:24:47.239 he'll be right back. 2658 02:24:47.479 --> 02:24:50.760 This is fifty five krc an iHeartRadio station. 2659 02:24:51.120 --> 02:24:53.079 Hey forty one if you have KARCIT talk station. By 2660 02:24:53.079 --> 02:24:54.680 the time is here with Adam Kaylor and studio for 2661 02:24:54.680 --> 02:24:57.440 the whole hour. Adam Kayler dot com koe E H 2662 02:24:57.600 --> 02:25:00.440 L E R run for kind of commissioner. Over the 2663 02:25:00.479 --> 02:25:03.200 break that we were talking about growth in Hamilton County 2664 02:25:03.280 --> 02:25:06.319 and where it is, and then a little comparison shopping 2665 02:25:06.360 --> 02:25:08.959 as to maybe what some of the surrounding counties are 2666 02:25:08.959 --> 02:25:10.959 doing by way of growth, and it doesn't look like 2667 02:25:10.959 --> 02:25:13.360 a very pretty picture. You mentioned Claremont County by way 2668 02:25:13.360 --> 02:25:16.360 of illustration. So where are we in terms of growth? 2669 02:25:16.719 --> 02:25:18.920 Clearly needed, we need investment in the county. We need 2670 02:25:18.959 --> 02:25:24.280 more jobs and business is yeah, they of course yeah. 2671 02:25:24.319 --> 02:25:26.440 I mean you got Hamilton County which has had a 2672 02:25:26.440 --> 02:25:29.280 two percent growth rate over the last decade, while some 2673 02:25:29.360 --> 02:25:31.479 neighboring counties and I believe it's Claremont has had a 2674 02:25:31.520 --> 02:25:34.799 twenty two percent growth rate over the last decade. And 2675 02:25:34.840 --> 02:25:36.440 I mean you can imagine where that's coming from. It's 2676 02:25:36.440 --> 02:25:38.879 not like people are leaving Pittsburgh or Nashville to come 2677 02:25:38.920 --> 02:25:42.040 to Claremont County. Those people are coming from Hamilton County. 2678 02:25:42.399 --> 02:25:45.520 And the one problem is you don't have pro growth 2679 02:25:45.600 --> 02:25:49.399 people in power here. We have a Democrat i'd say 2680 02:25:49.399 --> 02:25:54.520 progressive monopoly on city Council and Hamilton County Commission. Yes, right, 2681 02:25:54.760 --> 02:25:59.079 We've got a you know this this Black Music Hall 2682 02:25:59.079 --> 02:26:01.440 of Fame downtown. Do we spend millions of dollars on 2683 02:26:01.639 --> 02:26:03.479 you know, we spend about a million dollars a year 2684 02:26:03.520 --> 02:26:06.760 there just cutting the grass. And I heard someone say, oh, well, 2685 02:26:06.760 --> 02:26:09.319 there's been thirty five thousand people that have come seen 2686 02:26:09.399 --> 02:26:11.760 it and over a year. Thirty five thousand people in 2687 02:26:11.799 --> 02:26:15.120 a year. Is that a tourist attraction? Does that sound 2688 02:26:15.120 --> 02:26:15.920 like a tourist attraction? 2689 02:26:16.000 --> 02:26:16.159 Year? 2690 02:26:16.200 --> 02:26:17.760 It doesn't work out, right, it doesn't work out, But 2691 02:26:17.760 --> 02:26:20.520 we're spending money on stuff like that instead of how 2692 02:26:20.559 --> 02:26:23.600 do we get the people who are not participating in 2693 02:26:23.639 --> 02:26:27.000 the economy right now to participate in the economy. Half 2694 02:26:27.040 --> 02:26:30.840 of Hamilton County's budget goes to criminal justice. That's your 2695 02:26:30.879 --> 02:26:33.680 money and my money that we have to spend. If 2696 02:26:33.680 --> 02:26:37.399 there's anywhere I think we could save money, it's by 2697 02:26:37.760 --> 02:26:41.319 not producing criminals in the first place. But we have 2698 02:26:41.319 --> 02:26:43.959 school system that There's nothing really I could do about 2699 02:26:43.959 --> 02:26:46.600 the Cincinni Public school system as as a Hamilton County commissioner, 2700 02:26:46.760 --> 02:26:51.120 except I have a bully poolpit to say, hey, get 2701 02:26:51.120 --> 02:26:55.200 your stuff together. You're costing taxpayers a ridiculous amount of 2702 02:26:55.239 --> 02:26:59.079 money by not doing your job and keeping kids out 2703 02:26:59.159 --> 02:27:01.360 of the criminal justice. That's the system that we have 2704 02:27:01.479 --> 02:27:02.040 to pay for. 2705 02:27:03.879 --> 02:27:06.600 There's so many layers in that, and I don't even 2706 02:27:06.639 --> 02:27:09.479 know where to begin at them, because of course, I 2707 02:27:09.520 --> 02:27:12.200 typically like to place most of the blame and the 2708 02:27:12.200 --> 02:27:13.920 deterioration of the nuclear family. 2709 02:27:14.639 --> 02:27:16.840 And if you don't have a new path. 2710 02:27:16.719 --> 02:27:20.920 Right the left, Yeah, by not requiring fathers to take 2711 02:27:20.920 --> 02:27:24.079 on the responsibility of paying for and supporting the children 2712 02:27:24.120 --> 02:27:26.559 they bring into this world and hooking up women in 2713 02:27:26.559 --> 02:27:29.600 the umbilical court of government by saying, well, if there 2714 02:27:29.680 --> 02:27:32.280 is a man in your life that provides financial support, 2715 02:27:32.319 --> 02:27:34.479 you're not entitled to any of this aid, which forced 2716 02:27:34.479 --> 02:27:36.399 women to stay away from the other guys so they 2717 02:27:36.440 --> 02:27:38.520 can get the money coming from government, which I'll be 2718 02:27:38.520 --> 02:27:40.479 honest is probably a hell of a lot more reliable 2719 02:27:40.520 --> 02:27:43.040 than the baby daddy and trying to track him down 2720 02:27:43.079 --> 02:27:43.879 and get him to pay. 2721 02:27:44.000 --> 02:27:46.079 And why do you think they're losing the blackmail vote 2722 02:27:46.159 --> 02:27:50.319 right now? The blackmail has not been able to participate 2723 02:27:50.360 --> 02:27:53.319 in any of those benefits. They're still on the hook, 2724 02:27:53.639 --> 02:27:55.600 right They're going to jail for not paying child' sport. 2725 02:27:55.639 --> 02:27:57.520 They're dealing with a lot of this stuff. They don't 2726 02:27:57.559 --> 02:28:00.479 benefit from a lot of these things. They're looking at 2727 02:28:00.879 --> 02:28:03.479 why they've been voting Democrat for the last seventy years, 2728 02:28:03.799 --> 02:28:04.680 like what have we been doing? 2729 02:28:04.879 --> 02:28:06.200 Is where has it gotten us? 2730 02:28:06.520 --> 02:28:09.559 And Hispanics too, they hear this stuff about the families 2731 02:28:09.639 --> 02:28:12.040 not important, this and that from the Democrats, and they're like, 2732 02:28:12.079 --> 02:28:13.799 wait a minute, families important to. 2733 02:28:13.840 --> 02:28:17.120 Us, hugely important among the Latino community. 2734 02:28:16.959 --> 02:28:19.280 Huge and more and more of those types of folks 2735 02:28:19.319 --> 02:28:22.600 are moving into Hamilton County. I mean my neighborhood, Price Hill. 2736 02:28:22.719 --> 02:28:26.639 It's always kind of been a neighborhood for folks like us. 2737 02:28:26.799 --> 02:28:28.600 You know, I grew up in a single parent household. 2738 02:28:28.600 --> 02:28:30.639 My dad wasn't around, he didn't pay child support. 2739 02:28:30.879 --> 02:28:31.040 Right. 2740 02:28:31.120 --> 02:28:33.319 We had a lot of the same problems as many 2741 02:28:33.399 --> 02:28:36.360 inner city people, right, And that's what Pricehill was. It's 2742 02:28:36.360 --> 02:28:38.360 always been kind of a melting pot of folks. 2743 02:28:38.920 --> 02:28:39.079 You know. 2744 02:28:39.159 --> 02:28:41.159 I grew up with a lot of African American people, 2745 02:28:41.159 --> 02:28:44.879 a lot of Appalachians, big Appalachian community, and we didn't 2746 02:28:44.879 --> 02:28:47.200 want to be poor. We didn't want crime in our neighborhoods. 2747 02:28:47.360 --> 02:28:49.440 But it seems to be a dumping ground for crime. 2748 02:28:49.479 --> 02:28:52.319 They just kind of forget about us, right, And people 2749 02:28:52.360 --> 02:28:54.440 are starting to wake up to that fact, and they're like, 2750 02:28:54.440 --> 02:28:56.799 wait a minute, why do we keep voting Democrat? We 2751 02:28:56.840 --> 02:28:58.520 always voted Democrat when I was a kid, and I 2752 02:28:58.559 --> 02:29:02.120 finally woke up right paying taxes, start being a productive citizen, 2753 02:29:02.120 --> 02:29:04.559 and you're like, wait a minute, what are we paying for. 2754 02:29:05.040 --> 02:29:07.639 Half the county's money is going to criminal justice right now, 2755 02:29:07.719 --> 02:29:10.440 just to keep people in jail. The schools are are 2756 02:29:10.479 --> 02:29:13.559 a pipeline to prison. If you are going to save 2757 02:29:13.639 --> 02:29:18.200 taxpayers money somewhere. Stop sending US prisoners, stop sending us people, 2758 02:29:18.399 --> 02:29:22.600 start creating productive citizens, bring the trades back for God's sake. Oh, 2759 02:29:23.319 --> 02:29:26.479 put some vocational programs back in these schools like Western Hills. 2760 02:29:26.920 --> 02:29:30.840 That right, there is a winning idea. Vocational training. It's 2761 02:29:30.879 --> 02:29:34.159 all the rage these days. College education not so much, 2762 02:29:34.239 --> 02:29:36.120 especially when you come out of college with two hundred 2763 02:29:36.159 --> 02:29:39.239 thousand dollars in debt and nothing but this sort of 2764 02:29:39.399 --> 02:29:42.440 liberal arts degree that well, guess what, there are no 2765 02:29:42.600 --> 02:29:44.120 jobs that are going to be paying the money that 2766 02:29:44.159 --> 02:29:45.920 you need to pay off that student debt with. It's 2767 02:29:45.959 --> 02:29:48.879 just it's a pointless exercise. It's like paying two hundred 2768 02:29:48.879 --> 02:29:51.719 thousand dollars to learn a hobby.

I want to bring some 2825 02:32:27.920 --> 02:32:29.959 energy back to the GOP. I want to bring some 2826 02:32:30.079 --> 02:32:32.360 energy back. I want to bring you know, more people here, 2827 02:32:32.360 --> 02:32:33.879 like I've got to. I went to school in Pittsburgh. 2828 02:32:34.000 --> 02:32:35.559 Right A big Bengal sticker on the back of my 2829 02:32:35.600 --> 02:32:38.520 car got broke into twice. They they hate me at Pittsburgh, right. Well, 2830 02:32:38.520 --> 02:32:40.200 I don't like them either. I want their businesses to 2831 02:32:40.239 --> 02:32:42.360 move here. I don't want Columbus to do better than us. 2832 02:32:42.399 --> 02:32:45.239 I was in Indianapolis on Saturday. You know, they've got 2833 02:32:45.239 --> 02:32:47.360 some growth. There's some things happen, and I was in Carmel, 2834 02:32:47.399 --> 02:32:50.000 beautiful suburb, you know. I see that stuff happening. And now 2835 02:32:49.959 --> 02:32:51.760 I'm like, why can't we have it here? What's going 2836 02:32:51.799 --> 02:32:53.959 on in Cincinnati, what's going on in Hamilton County? Let's 2837 02:32:54.000 --> 02:32:56.680 bring that back. You've got guys here that have never 2838 02:32:56.840 --> 02:33:00.319 stopped working politically in Hamilton County. Guys like Jim for 2839 02:33:00.360 --> 02:33:02.520 on the West side. You good friends with Jim. I 2840 02:33:02.520 --> 02:33:05.319 mean he gets out there. The guy is NonStop. He's 2841 02:33:05.360 --> 02:33:07.639 a guy lives in Pricell, lived in prys O for years. 2842 02:33:07.879 --> 02:33:10.040 He's seeing what's going on in that neighborhood. He's seeing 2843 02:33:10.040 --> 02:33:12.319 what's going on in our communities. And it's like you've 2844 02:33:12.360 --> 02:33:15.479 got a Democrat monopoly. One of the biggest problems is 2845 02:33:15.559 --> 02:33:18.600 I guarantee you all those guys that on city Council, 2846 02:33:18.639 --> 02:33:20.399 on County Commission. I bet you they all got a 2847 02:33:20.399 --> 02:33:21.559 teachers union endorsement. 2848 02:33:22.319 --> 02:33:24.479 Oh yeah, If I was a betting man, I'd put 2849 02:33:24.520 --> 02:33:25.239 it all in on that. 2850 02:33:25.479 --> 02:33:27.399 And if you've got a teachers union endorsement, you want 2851 02:33:27.440 --> 02:33:30.280 to keep that endorsement, right, So what happens when the 2852 02:33:30.280 --> 02:33:31.079 schools start to teach? 2853 02:33:31.120 --> 02:33:33.399 I wouldn't wear it as a badger pride, Honestly, I 2854 02:33:33.399 --> 02:33:34.000 wouldn't either. 2855 02:33:34.000 --> 02:33:36.120 I wouldn't either. But you turn a blind eye to 2856 02:33:36.159 --> 02:33:38.159 the failures of the school. You turn a blind eye 2857 02:33:38.280 --> 02:33:41.879 to the nineteen percent college readiness rate, the forty three 2858 02:33:42.040 --> 02:33:45.239 percent chronic truancy rate, truancy has never been this high 2859 02:33:45.280 --> 02:33:48.040 in the public schools. Do you understand, Brian, they're creating 2860 02:33:48.079 --> 02:33:51.319 a system of failure in our schools and in our county. 2861 02:33:51.559 --> 02:33:53.719 And what's in what's going to happen is is the 2862 02:33:53.760 --> 02:33:55.479 next generation is going to be worse than the last one. 2863 02:33:55.559 --> 02:33:58.239 Oh, without question, without question, that's what's going to happen. 2864 02:33:58.680 --> 02:34:01.719 In couple with that truancy, I imagine this factors into 2865 02:34:02.520 --> 02:34:05.440 the whole idea of equitable grade. In other words, you 2866 02:34:05.479 --> 02:34:08.200 don't hold anyone back because it's going to hurt their 2867 02:34:08.239 --> 02:34:10.600 feelings or something, and you go ahead and advance them 2868 02:34:10.639 --> 02:34:12.479 to the next grade when they haven't had a mastery 2869 02:34:12.479 --> 02:34:14.559 of the grade that they're currently in meeting. The problem 2870 02:34:14.600 --> 02:34:17.479 just keeps getting worse and worse and worse as you 2871 02:34:17.520 --> 02:34:17.879 move forward. 2872 02:34:17.920 --> 02:34:19.639 Well, kids have no idea what they want to do, Brian. 2873 02:34:19.680 --> 02:34:21.360 I went to a school for the credit and former Arts. 2874 02:34:21.399 --> 02:34:23.360 Everybody at that school, which I sit on the board 2875 02:34:23.360 --> 02:34:26.120 of right now, everybody at that school had a vision 2876 02:34:26.159 --> 02:34:27.680 for what they wanted to do. They knew they had 2877 02:34:27.680 --> 02:34:30.360 a talent. Someone helped them identify that talent at a 2878 02:34:30.399 --> 02:34:32.360 young age. I can dance, I can sing, I could 2879 02:34:32.440 --> 02:34:34.520 draw in my case I could draw. I've owned an 2880 02:34:34.559 --> 02:34:37.600 ad agency for fourteen years, Brian. It got me into 2881 02:34:37.639 --> 02:34:40.959 my startup. I've done art the whole time. Like it 2882 02:34:41.360 --> 02:34:43.200 pointed me in a direction. I'm just a broke kid 2883 02:34:43.200 --> 02:34:46.479 from probably selling a single mother household, hanging around with games. Right, 2884 02:34:47.600 --> 02:34:49.920 I needed direction. I didn't know how the world worked. 2885 02:34:49.959 --> 02:34:53.159 These kids don't have a clue. They rely on older people. 2886 02:34:53.200 --> 02:34:55.920 They rely on folks who've been out in the workforce, 2887 02:34:56.040 --> 02:34:58.879 who know what's coming. The problem is current leadership's more 2888 02:34:58.920 --> 02:35:01.719 worried about their progressive policies then they are. 2889 02:35:01.840 --> 02:35:04.000 What's next, gender pronouns, what's coming? 2890 02:35:04.079 --> 02:35:07.159 How we're gonna build affordable housing Brian. We don't have plumbers, 2891 02:35:07.440 --> 02:35:10.479 we don't have electricians, we don't have HVC guys. Meanwhile, 2892 02:35:10.920 --> 02:35:15.079 there's businesses for sale baby boomers, profitable businesses that are 2893 02:35:15.120 --> 02:35:17.719 selling that are just gonna go away because they have 2894 02:35:17.760 --> 02:35:20.799 no secession plan. And the young people they're not interested 2895 02:35:20.920 --> 02:35:22.680 even if they wanted to buy that business. How do 2896 02:35:22.760 --> 02:35:24.559 they do it? How do they do it? 2897 02:35:25.159 --> 02:35:27.799 There's no plan, We have no plan. 2898 02:35:27.879 --> 02:35:33.239 We need to start creating cycles of success, not cycles 2899 02:35:33.360 --> 02:35:35.600 of poverty. And that's what we have now. We have 2900 02:35:35.639 --> 02:35:38.399 cycles of poverty. And these are long term plans. These 2901 02:35:38.399 --> 02:35:41.239 don't happen overnight, so we got to start doing that. 2902 02:35:41.559 --> 02:35:47.040 Adam Kaylor represents a great option on Hamilton Kenny Commissioner 2903 02:35:47.120 --> 02:35:50.799 Adam Kayler koehlr dot com.
