Speaker 1: Five o five. If it's five KRC the talk station,
Speaker 1: Happy Monday.
Speaker 2: I like it or not?
Speaker 3: SKay, well.
Speaker 1: It was a vacation.
Speaker 4: I'm the dude, man, I am not.
Speaker 1: I am Brian Thomas hosted fifty five KRC Morning Show,
Speaker 1: Just Treckerd Jacob producer Internet Research grew and all round
Speaker 1: great guy, with emphasis on that he's gonna have to
Speaker 1: give Joe props out loud. He posted a post on Facebook.
Speaker 1: It was a very elderly lady in one of those
Speaker 1: scooters at the rest at the grocery store, and when
Speaker 1: it came time to buy her groceries sixty dollars worth,
Speaker 1: none of her cards would work. I guess they'd all
Speaker 1: been maxed out. And she was beside herself, expressing some
Speaker 1: grief and dismay. And Joe paid it forward. Joe Tracker,
Speaker 1: man that does not have a whole lot of extra
Speaker 1: money laying around, nonetheless, saw this woman in distress and
Speaker 1: paid her grocery bill and she it brought her to tears.
Speaker 1: And God bless you, Joe Strecker, what a beautiful, beautiful
Speaker 1: thing that you did for that woman. And I I'm
Speaker 1: sure you've assured yourself a place in heaven for doing
Speaker 1: that little thing. So if you have the resources and
Speaker 1: you can help out, there are those in need that
Speaker 1: could surely use the help. So that's just one little
Speaker 1: may way of doing it. So great job. Joe Stracker
Speaker 1: has really moved by your post, so maybe you'll encourage
Speaker 1: more people to do that kind of thing from time
Speaker 1: to time. Coming up on the fifty five Garcie Morning
Speaker 1: You Show, Christopher Smith aman at seven twenty of course
Speaker 1: the Smith Event from the former Vice mayor of the
Speaker 1: City of Cincinnati. Every Monday at seven twenty we have
Speaker 1: an empower Youth seminar to talk about taking play. On
Speaker 1: the twenty fifth, Scott Zimmerman joins the program at eight
Speaker 1: forty Blue Lights and Human Health. We're going to learn
Speaker 1: together at eight forty what that's all about. No other
Speaker 1: guests on the run five one three, seven four nine
Speaker 1: fifty five hundred, eight hundred eight two three talk with
Speaker 1: Time five fifty on at and T phone. So let
Speaker 1: us start with something that's rather scary to me and
Speaker 1: something that you know, probably unrelated anything you were thinking
Speaker 1: about talking about in the Morning show right out of
Speaker 1: the gate. But I wrote scary exclamation point double on
Speaker 1: top of the article, and it's on the heels of
Speaker 1: a very comparable article that Tech Friday's Dave Hatter sent
Speaker 1: to me. You know, just an excellent segment and Dave
Speaker 1: Hatter's been nationally recognized as having one of the top
Speaker 1: podcasts hereing the five Case Morning Show with Tech Friday.
Speaker 1: Dave Hatter again, congratulations on that award from the million
Speaker 1: podcast website. So he sent me an article out of
Speaker 1: the Guardian by Miranda Bryant about a week old. Sweden's
Speaker 1: Central back had previously predicted by twenty twenty five of
Speaker 1: the country would be cashless and now and it's pretty
Speaker 1: much come true. Just one in ten purchases are now
Speaker 1: made with cash. However, they are pushing back on cashless
Speaker 1: in the given the concerns in Europe. You've got, of course,
Speaker 1: the Ukraine, Russian War, raging unpredictability in the United States
Speaker 1: and fear of Russian hybrid attacks. They say life without
Speaker 1: cash is not proving the utopia perhaps once promised to be.
Speaker 1: So authorities are now trying to encourage citizens to keep
Speaker 1: and use cash in the name of civil defense. Last November,
Speaker 1: the Defence Ministry sent every home a brochure entitled if
Speaker 1: crisis or war comes, telling people to use cash regularly
Speaker 1: and keep a minimum of a week's supply in various
Speaker 1: denominations to quote strengthen preparedness. Government published findings of an
Speaker 1: inquiry that proposed that some public and private agents should
Speaker 1: be required to accept cash. Sweden also moving to cash lists.
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, Norway also basically moving cash lists. They brought
Speaker 1: in legislation that requires retailers to accept cash or be
Speaker 1: fined or sanctioned if they don't. And that's more and
Speaker 1: more retailers refusing to do it. So I pivot over
Speaker 1: to John Karpey via the Epoch or Epic. It's both
Speaker 1: ways pronounces correct. He's a ballb president of the Justice
Speaker 1: Center for Constitutional Freedoms, a little food for thought in
Speaker 1: his opinion piece. Now this is Canada, but could easily
Speaker 1: apply anywhere where they're pushing for a central bank digital currency.
Speaker 1: So the Bank of Canada has made no secrets of
Speaker 1: an effort to explore a central bank digital currency a
Speaker 1: quote digital dollar close quote issued and controlled by the
Speaker 1: Central Bank Bank of Canada not alone did eight one
Speaker 1: hundred and thirty four countries and currency unions have explored
Speaker 1: a CBDC in sixty six countries are already in advanced
Speaker 1: stages of implementation be frightened. In twenty twenty three, cash
Speaker 1: account for only eleven percent of total payments made by Canadians.
Speaker 1: They use their credit cards, debit cards, e transfers, online
Speaker 1: banks to pay bills, make investments and donate to charities.
Speaker 1: Cash is just a trivial thing completed as basically for
Speaker 1: birthday cards. New legislation in Quebec and powers law enforcement.
Speaker 1: This is scary and powers law enforce to presume that
Speaker 1: cache sums of two thousand dollars or more are the
Speaker 1: proceeds of unlawful activity. It's an immediate presumption, no due
Speaker 1: process on that. While most consumers seem to appreciate the
Speaker 1: convenience and increasingly digital economy, a CBDC is a radical
Speaker 1: change from using credit cards in an online banking app. CBDC,
Speaker 1: we'll just call it digital currency would likely lead to
Speaker 1: a cashless economy in which all financial tractions can be
Speaker 1: monitored and controlled by government. A cashless economy would create
Speaker 1: severe hardship for people who are homeless, technologically illiterate, or
Speaker 1: without ready access to the internet. And think about if
Speaker 1: the power shuts down, Just keep that in the back
Speaker 1: of your mind. For Canadians who look after the finances electronically,
Speaker 1: cash remains essential to protect their rights and freedoms, including
Speaker 1: their privacy, security and autonomy, and a cashless economy. All
Speaker 1: transactions are digital, subject to surveillance and ultimately subject to
Speaker 1: government control. Digital currency opens the door for governments to
Speaker 1: reward or penalize Canadians for the personal choices on how
Speaker 1: to live, where to go, and what to do with
Speaker 1: their own money. Governments can use digital currency to restrict when,
Speaker 1: where and what people are allowed to buy, leading to
Speaker 1: a level of control resembling Communist China's notorious social credit system,
Speaker 1: where they use social credit to reward citizens who support
Speaker 1: the Communist Party and its rules and policies. Those who
Speaker 1: criticize the party can find themselves unable to order train,
Speaker 1: plane or subway, denied a bank loan, or prevented from
Speaker 1: enrolling their children of the best schools and universities. Scary stuff.
Speaker 1: If I use cash to pay for my gas and
Speaker 1: my car, then no bank, credit card company, or government
Speaker 1: will know that I was. For example, at a shell
Speaker 1: station on Southland, driving Calgary at eight forty five in
Speaker 1: the morning on a Monday. Nor will anyone know that
Speaker 1: how much I spent on gas that morning, other than
Speaker 1: the gas station staff, who likely won't know my name.
Speaker 1: Three hours later, I use cash to pay for a
Speaker 1: meal at a restaurant in Edmonton. No corporation or government
Speaker 1: will know that I traveled from Calgary to Edmonton that morning.
Speaker 1: I don't have to be doing anything sinister or legal
Speaker 1: in Edmonton to care about my privacy. Why should it
Speaker 1: be subject to surveillance simply because I exist? The digital
Speaker 1: currency is imposed and the economy goes cashless, government will
Speaker 1: know at all times about every purchase, sale, investment, and
Speaker 1: donation made by every Canadian or fill in the blank
Speaker 1: government of choice. A government, once armed with this knowledge,
Speaker 1: can exercise stringent and detailed control over many aspects of
Speaker 1: the life of a citizen. Many Canadians don't care about
Speaker 1: their privacy being violated when banks or credit card companies
Speaker 1: acquire vast amounts of information about the habits, movements, and
Speaker 1: preferences of consumers. However, governments are radically different from private
Speaker 1: corporations by definition and by their very nature. Governments exercise
Speaker 1: course of power over citizens using course of power is
Speaker 1: good when governments enforce criminal code prohibitions against murder, theft,
Speaker 1: and terrorism. However, governments can also use their course of
Speaker 1: power to violate human rights, civil liberties, and constitutional freedoms,
Speaker 1: always on the basis of some nice sounding pretext. Power
Speaker 1: crupts and absolute power crups. Absolutely, Hence, our Constitution is
Speaker 1: intended to protect citizens from tyranny. Some argue we will
Speaker 1: never see communist Chinese social credit in Canada, but it
Speaker 1: already happened here in February twenty twenty two, when the
Speaker 1: federal government froze the bank accounts of hundreds of Canadians
Speaker 1: who have not broken any law or committed any crime.
Speaker 1: These Canadian citizens were punished by the state for having
Speaker 1: donated money to a peaceful protest movement that was hated
Speaker 1: by the Prime Minister of the day. They had no
Speaker 1: opportunity to challenge, dispute or appeal the severe penalty which
Speaker 1: government imposed on them without warning. Cash alone made it
Speaker 1: possible for these victimized Canadians to buy groceries, pay their
Speaker 1: heating bills in winter, and secure other necessities. If Canada's
Speaker 1: economy had been cashless in February twenty to the government's
Speaker 1: freezing on bank accounts would have inflicted far more harm.
Speaker 1: Governments made the new COVID vaccine mandatory in twenty twenty one,
Speaker 1: imposing the penalty of second class citizenship for non compliance.
Speaker 1: Governments use QR codes to turn personal private medical records
Speaker 1: into quasi public documents that needed to be shown to
Speaker 1: complete strangers working at restaurants, gyms, and movie theaters. With
Speaker 1: this track record of violating the privacy of citizens, why
Speaker 1: would governments hesitate to control what Canadians spend their money?
Speaker 2: On?
Speaker 1: Theory, the digital currency can exist without governments violating human
Speaker 1: lights and constitutional freedoms. And theory, they could be designed
Speaker 1: without programmable restrictions, just like cash is printed without such restrictions.
Speaker 1: After all, paper bills don't spontaneously combust when exchange for
Speaker 1: the wrong kind of things. Likewise, the digital currency could
Speaker 1: be designed to maximize the privacy of and autonomy of us.
Speaker 1: But in practice, what government or what politician or bureaucrat
Speaker 1: would resist the temptation to use a digital currency as
Speaker 1: a tool to control citizens. If cash is out law
Speaker 1: and replaced with a CBDC, the government has a powerful
Speaker 1: tool to exercise ultimate and very intimate control over the
Speaker 1: life of every Canadian. The digital dollar provides politicians, bureaucrats,
Speaker 1: and bankers with intimate access to our inner lives. Therefore,
Speaker 1: this digital currency poses a grave threat to Charter rights
Speaker 1: and freedoms. It's up to Canadians to make CBDC an
Speaker 1: issue in the coming election. Voters should urge their MPs
Speaker 1: and their provincial representatives the pass laws that protect cash
Speaker 1: and the right to use it. I just, you know,
Speaker 1: I just contemplate the realities of all that every single
Speaker 1: transaction you engage in monitored and controlled and subject to
Speaker 1: the electric flip switch off. If your lords and masters
Speaker 1: decide that you're engaged in something that they do not like.
Speaker 1: And this has happened before. Banks have canceled bank accounts
Speaker 1: because you're engaged in some activity. For example, the Obama
Speaker 1: administration didn't like, or the Biden administration didn't like payday
Speaker 1: cash loan operations, firearm manufacturers, firearms sales. Bank accounts close
Speaker 1: shut down. Now, fortunately they still have cash and they
Speaker 1: can still trade in cash. But if we lived under
Speaker 1: a country that was controlled by a central bank, digital currency,
Speaker 1: as many are trying to push for their lives, are
Speaker 1: over their their businesses are over. It's done. It's toast.
Speaker 1: Heaven forbid. You run a foul of what your lords
Speaker 1: and masters and government want from you. Five sixteen fifty
Speaker 1: five KRC Detalk Station. Thanks Againned Dave Hatter for providing
Speaker 1: me another spring board off that epic Times article from
Speaker 1: the Guardian five on three seven four nine fifty eight
Speaker 1: two three takoby right back after.
Speaker 5: These words fifty five KRC.
Speaker 1: It's happy Monday if I went three seven two three
Speaker 1: talk on five fifty on eighteen of t funk. You
Speaker 1: know these craze leftists going after your tesla's and go
Speaker 1: whatever happened to Green? I thought that Tesla was the
Speaker 1: darling of the green people, the darling of the uh
Speaker 1: you're responsible for, you know, the climate change. Get yourself
Speaker 1: a tesla. Don't pollute the world. What are the most
Speaker 1: popular cars around for a while now people are afraid
Speaker 1: to drive them and own them because there's idiots out
Speaker 1: there vandalizing them. I don't all because Elon Musk is
Speaker 1: getting rid of fraud, waste and abuse in government, you're
Speaker 1: attacking tesla's.
Speaker 2: Now.
Speaker 1: Elon must point out the the day that social security
Speaker 1: is a Ponzi scheme. I think he's not the first
Speaker 1: person to observe that. I know I've called it a
Speaker 1: Ponzi scheme many times over the past couple of decades.
Speaker 1: Because you read the information you know, whether it's from
Speaker 1: the CBO or other observers of the situation with Social Security,
Speaker 1: you realize at his house of cards, the money that
Speaker 1: comes in goes immediately out to pay the benefits of
Speaker 1: those who previously paid money in. That's the very definition
Speaker 1: of a Ponzi scheme. A Ponzi scheme operates by taking
Speaker 1: money from new investors to pay current investors. That is
Speaker 1: the definition given by the SEC, and that's exactly how
Speaker 1: Social Security operates. It is literally a definitional Ponzi scheme,
Speaker 1: and it's kind of frightening when you really look at
Speaker 1: the numbers. James Ragesti, president of the nonprofit research institute
Speaker 1: Just Fact, speaking with Fox News, he explained that Social Security,
Speaker 1: believed to be a target of must efforts at DOGE,
Speaker 1: doesn't take our money and save it for us, as
Speaker 1: many people believe, and then give it to us when
Speaker 1: we are older, like many Americans believe. What it does.
Speaker 1: It transfers money when we are young and working and
Speaker 1: paying into Social Security taxes. That money, to ask Balk
Speaker 1: of it, goes immediately out the door to people who
Speaker 1: are currently receiving benefits. Just that now there is a
Speaker 1: trust fund, but in ninety years of operation, that trust
Speaker 1: fund currently has enough money to fund ready two years
Speaker 1: of program operation. Trust fund only being able to last
Speaker 1: two years is not a result of the fund being looted,
Speaker 1: as he explained, but rather it was put in place
Speaker 1: to put surpluses in it from money that Social Security
Speaker 1: collects in taxes that it doesn't pay out immediately and
Speaker 1: pays interest on the interest that's been paid on that
Speaker 1: has been higher than the rate of inflation. So the
Speaker 1: problem isn't that the trust fund has been looted. The
Speaker 1: problem is that Social Security operates like a Ponzi scheme.
Speaker 1: He also is concerned, express concerned over all of those
Speaker 1: individuals over the age of one hundred and whether or
Speaker 1: not the receiving payments or not. But he did remind
Speaker 1: Fox when he was talking to him. So it's unclear
Speaker 1: to me at this moment whether or not people who
Speaker 1: are on the books actually receiving checks. Back during the
Speaker 1: Obama administration, there was a stimulus, and the Obama administration
Speaker 1: sent out stimulus text via text via Social Security numbers
Speaker 1: to eighty thousand people who were dead at about seventy
Speaker 1: thousand of them, of them the Social Security Administration knew
Speaker 1: were dead. So I don't know if they've remedied the
Speaker 1: situation since then, but clearly the system is not keeping
Speaker 1: up with the pace of current data, and that provides
Speaker 1: the opportunity for fraud. So let Lelon Musk go in
Speaker 1: and get rid of the dead people. How is that
Speaker 1: a threat to the Social security? To Social Security generally speaking,
Speaker 1: he said, there's been a lot of information at that
Speaker 1: of late you know, when Doge came in and suggested
Speaker 1: that SOCA Security administration cut I think there was about
Speaker 1: ten thousand workers. Democrats erupted that this was going to
Speaker 1: weaken Social Security. But the fact of the matter is
Speaker 1: that Social Security pays those workers who are for administrative
Speaker 1: overhead from the Social Security Trust Fund. So by cutting
Speaker 1: out the money that they're paying them, you actually strengthened
Speaker 1: strengthen the program financially. You point out the current administrative
Speaker 1: overhead for Social Security six point seven billion dollars per year,
Speaker 1: enough to pay more than three hundred thousand retirees the
Speaker 1: average old age benefit. Isn't that a good thing to
Speaker 1: be able to pay them? That sounds like it's shoring
Speaker 1: up things rather than you freaking out that, oh my god,
Speaker 1: he's coming up to social Security once you look at
Speaker 1: the reality of how it's set up and the eminent
Speaker 1: collapse of Social Security absence something being done to reform
Speaker 1: the program. This ergacy guy, if you feel, if you
Speaker 1: get to give you a feel of how disconnected socias
Speaker 1: security is from a fully funded pension plan. If to
Speaker 1: keep the program solvent and put it on the same
Speaker 1: firm financial footing as a real pension plan, brace yourself
Speaker 1: for this, folks. It would require an extra two hundred
Speaker 1: and seventy two thousand dollars in additional payroll taxes from
Speaker 1: every person paying payroll taxes. Right now, I think you
Speaker 1: got a problem on our hands, folks. And they're going
Speaker 1: after Elon Musk for just pointing this stuff out, burning
Speaker 1: up teslas and dealership shooting them up, committing acci terrorism
Speaker 1: and vandalism and polluting the environment at the same time.
Speaker 1: And I'm not talking about just taking a Tesla vehicle
Speaker 1: off the road because it has zero missions. I'm talking
Speaker 1: about the fires created when they light them on fire.
Speaker 1: Get all those toxic battery fumes floating around. That's great
Speaker 1: for the environment, great for the neighborhood. Makes you kind
Speaker 1: of wonder whether they were really serious about their environment
Speaker 1: environmental concerns, doesn't it. Twenty six local stories, including no,
Speaker 1: you're not going to get reimbursed for the pothole damage
Speaker 1: or the damage the pothole cause your car in the
Speaker 1: city of Cincinnati. Unbelievable story locally here. We'll get to
Speaker 1: that in a moment.
Speaker 3: This is fifty five KRC an iHeartRadio station Prohibition.
Speaker 1: It is five point thirty on a Monday. Very happy
Speaker 1: one to you. Five one, three, seven, four nine fifty
Speaker 1: hunty two three talk. I'll ask Mississippi James just to
Speaker 1: pause for a minute because I want to get this
Speaker 1: local story in, because it's been a regular topic of
Speaker 1: conversation here locally in the city of Cincinnati about the
Speaker 1: outrageous and terrible conditions of the roads. And we have
Speaker 1: been told previously that you'll get reimbursed if your car
Speaker 1: is damaged by one of the unrepaired potholes. Ah, thank you.
Speaker 1: Rachel Hersheimer from WLWT Local five, reporting one hundreds people
Speaker 1: have asked for help with damage from the pothole. City
Speaker 1: of since A does allow people to report a pothole,
Speaker 1: also allows people to submit a claim if they experience
Speaker 1: damage from hit a pothole, but the city confirms nobody
Speaker 1: has been reimbursed for a pothole. Clarissa Wright, interviewed, said
Speaker 1: she ran over a pothole on West Mitchell Avenue and
Speaker 1: Spring Gros saying I hit a pothole pretty hard as
Speaker 1: one of the airbags didn't come out. Said everything just
Speaker 1: fell down, that all the lights in the car came down,
Speaker 1: my tire was my tires were deflating. She had a
Speaker 1: flat tire pulled over I seventy five South towed to
Speaker 1: a dealership. Total cost to her seven hundred and fifty bucks.
Speaker 1: Submitted a reimbursement claim to the City of Cincinnati denied.
Speaker 1: Email from the city quote the City of Cincinnati, by statute,
Speaker 1: has certain immunities from liability for damage of this nature
Speaker 1: regarding the pothole. ORC Section twenty seven forty four point
Speaker 1: oh five limits claims to circumstances where the city is
Speaker 1: proven to have had prior knowledge of the road condition.
Speaker 1: Yet failed to act within a reasonable amount of time. Now,
Speaker 1: as a lawyer, I would say proven that means the
Speaker 1: obligation is on you to show the City of Cincinnati
Speaker 1: knew about the pothole but didn't act. How would you
Speaker 1: know if they knew? The city further wrote, both conditions
Speaker 1: must be met. Therefore, most accidents caused by a pothole
Speaker 1: in the City of Cincinnati are not likely eligible for
Speaker 1: reimbursement under Ohio law. The search of records in the
Speaker 1: City Service Requests database confirms that pothole repairs were completed
Speaker 1: in this area and within a reasonable amount of time
Speaker 1: from when they were first reported. City Cincinnati has not
Speaker 1: demonstrated negligence in this case. Regrettably, we must deny your
Speaker 1: request for damage claim reimbursement. Pursuing to Ohio law. No
Speaker 1: reimbursement will be made in this case. This decision is final,
Speaker 1: so don't the OLWT reached out of this for a
Speaker 1: spokesperson in the City of Cincinnati. To date, they said
Speaker 1: the city has received five hundred and sixty four requests
Speaker 1: for reimbursement in twenty twenty five, while not all have
Speaker 1: been reviewed. Thus far, none have been eligible for reimbursement.
Speaker 1: The city says, qualifications remm burseman come down to state law.
Speaker 1: I'll blame it on the state law. They'll go. WT
Speaker 1: asked the city spokesperson if anyone was available to answer
Speaker 1: more questions drivers have on this process. The city said
Speaker 1: they do not have anyone to comment. Well, how convenient.
Speaker 1: Let's gore to the phones to what Mississippi James, God James,
Speaker 1: Happy Monday to you. Welcome back to the show.
Speaker 6: Same here, doctor Brian. I have a question for you.
Speaker 6: What's the difference between a ponza scheme and a pyramid scheme?
Speaker 1: Hmm, well, you're throwing me a curveball on that one.
Speaker 7: I know.
Speaker 1: Ponzi scheme pays the money out that comes in from
Speaker 1: new investors immediately to prior investors. That's by definition of
Speaker 1: Ponzi scheme. I'd have to look up pyramid scheme. I'm
Speaker 1: sorry you caught me the loss. I'll blame the five
Speaker 1: o'clock hour.
Speaker 6: One is illegal and another one is not. So when he
Speaker 6: used the word Ponzi scheme, that's that's illegal. Yeah, a
Speaker 6: pyramid scheme is illegal. Well, a pyramid and fed a
Speaker 6: serve to use pyramids.
Speaker 1: Now here's the quote. A pyramid scheme is a fraudulent
Speaker 1: investment scheme where participants are primarily paid for recruiting new
Speaker 1: members rather than selling products or services, ultimately collapsing when
Speaker 1: there are no more new members to recruit. That was
Speaker 1: the way Amway worked, if I recalled correctly. So they're
Speaker 1: not necessarily legal in that regard, but it's not a
Speaker 1: pyramid scheme. It's a Ponzi scheme. Definitionally speaking, the Social
Speaker 1: Security program is a legally created by government pon ponzi scheme.
Speaker 1: That's again the definition of it is you're paying the
Speaker 1: money that new investors that will be workers paying into
Speaker 1: Social Security, rather than having that money put away for
Speaker 1: their future use and invested or otherwise, you know, at
Speaker 1: least kept in an account. It's going immediately out the
Speaker 1: door to pay for people who had already paid in
Speaker 1: over their lives working. That's just that's your straightforward, plain
Speaker 1: old ponzi. There's no extra money laying around to cover
Speaker 1: the future obligations that they have incurred based on the
Speaker 1: promises made by the Social Security administration.
Speaker 6: Okay, and second, he probably should have came out with
Speaker 6: a surgical knife instead of a change saw.
Speaker 1: I'm sticking hearing that chainsaw stuff. He is pretty much
Speaker 1: using a surgical knife. Now they've had to backpedal some
Speaker 1: of the cuts they've made, but overall he has saved
Speaker 1: us a lot of money. And yes, they've gotten rid
Speaker 1: of unnecessary employees. That's the point of it. Our government's
Speaker 1: too blowed. It's got too many people, and it blew
Speaker 1: up in terms of the number of hires during the
Speaker 1: Biden administration. If you look at who got hired across
Speaker 1: the board, the vast majority of new jobs went too
Speaker 1: government workers. Did we really need them? Were we've fallen
Speaker 1: behind in government obligations prior to this massive influx of
Speaker 1: new personnel, not that I recall.
Speaker 6: And third point, he probably should have found another way
Speaker 6: to show his admiration for America instead of his semi
Speaker 6: Hitler salute.
Speaker 8: Time.
Speaker 1: God, you're not James, You're smarter than that. There's been
Speaker 1: so many pictures of so many people in the in
Speaker 1: the Democrat Party and other folks holding their hand up.
Speaker 1: You take a picture of it. They weren't saluting in
Speaker 1: Nazis style. It wasn't a reference to Adolf Hitler in
Speaker 1: the in the National Socialist Party, it was just a
Speaker 1: hand gesture while they were busy waving their hands around
Speaker 1: and talking. I bet you know, over your lifetime, I
Speaker 1: bet you could have had a picture taken to you
Speaker 1: doing the same thing, and you had probably been pretty
Speaker 1: pissed off of someone called you a Nazi merely because
Speaker 1: you were captured in an instant of time with your
Speaker 1: hand in that position. I mean, that's been widely that's
Speaker 1: been widely debunked. The guy's not a Nazi. Read the
Speaker 1: definition of Nazis. You know he's not.
Speaker 6: We can frame it anyway we choose, I know.
Speaker 1: You know what, Yeah, well, framing in a way, framing
Speaker 1: in a way that's accurate. And don't buy into this
Speaker 1: propaganda that Elon Musk is a Nazi. There's a picture
Speaker 1: of Alexandri Casio Cortez doing the same thing. Are you
Speaker 1: gonna call her a Nazi too? Because they captured her
Speaker 1: on film with her hand and what appears to be
Speaker 1: a Nazi salute and.
Speaker 6: Probably to call him a Nazi. I did not call
Speaker 6: him a Nazi. You missing my point? You taking an
Speaker 6: araka and run and with it. I said he'd probably
Speaker 6: been better served if he'd found him another way to
Speaker 6: show his admiration for the America system by weighted.
Speaker 1: He waved. I mean he he was captured midwave. Okay,
Speaker 1: I meanspoint you want to no, No, I mean that's
Speaker 1: the reality if you saw the live footage of that.
Speaker 1: That's why this whole thing about him saluting a Nazi
Speaker 1: style has been debunked. It was a moment in time
Speaker 1: freeze frame capture of his hand gestures that were moving
Speaker 1: all over the place, So it can't be framed any
Speaker 1: other way than it's been taken out of context that
Speaker 1: that was a Nazi salute. That's my point. Appreciate the call,
Speaker 1: James as always five point thirty eight. Here fifty five

Speaker 1: you happen to be. Let's see here, speaking of chainsaws,
Speaker 1: why not start here in the stack of stupid. We've
Speaker 1: got an Illinois police officer shot and killed a man
Speaker 1: who was wielding a chainsaw in a nursing home. Why
Speaker 1: are you doing that? Daniel H. Escalera shot and killed
Speaker 1: inside the Saint Charles, Illinois nursing home December first, last year,
Speaker 1: while wielding a chainsaw and asking for his wife. Forty
Speaker 1: year old man from Stockwell, Indiana, reports that officials still
Speaker 1: do not understand why he was at the Illinois nursing home.
Speaker 1: According to Kane County Sheriff's Office attorney in a statement,
Speaker 1: officials examined body worn camera audio and video recording, statements
Speaker 1: from witnesses to the events, and physical evidence from the
Speaker 1: scene of the shooting, and the results of the autopsy,
Speaker 1: and based on the investigation, state's attorney's office found no
Speaker 1: wrongdoing on the part of the officers, and the review
Speaker 1: of the matter is now considered close. Witness called nine
Speaker 1: one one after Escalera entered the senior living home with
Speaker 1: the chainsaw. Body camera footage shows the first officer took
Speaker 1: out a taser when he first encountered Escalera while Esclaire
Speaker 1: entered a cafeteria with multiple elderly residents inside. Escalaire was
Speaker 1: briefly knocked down by the taser, but got back up,
Speaker 1: grabbed the chainsaw, and ran at the officer, who then
Speaker 1: shot him with a device. Officer evaded the cafeteria went
Speaker 1: back to the hot lobby to regroup with another officer.
Speaker 1: As they tried to confront escala again. Escalaire then held
Speaker 1: the chainsaw over his head and charged toward the officer.
Speaker 1: One of the officers then shot him twice, missing both
Speaker 1: times whoops. Third shot hit Esclaire in the left arm
Speaker 1: as he fled the room states to talk attorney's office.
Speaker 1: Press Leers release said once reaching the hallway, Escalara stopped
Speaker 1: to the immediate right of an elderly resident in a wheelchair,
Speaker 1: turned toward the officers, and held his hands forward in
Speaker 1: a position which appeared to imitate holding a firearm. The
Speaker 1: officer fired a fourth shot, hitting Escallera in the chest.
Speaker 1: That was the fatal shot. He was pronounced dead. Toxicology
Speaker 1: report showed Escallera had the presence of mphetamines, meth n fetamines,
Speaker 1: and olanzipine in his system. No doubt, Joe, I didn't
Speaker 1: know what it is either. Lanzapine as a drug used
Speaker 1: to treat the symptoms of schizophrenia. So presumably a schizophrenic
Speaker 1: on n fetamines and methan fetamines. That's a bad combo argue,
Speaker 1: At least it sounds like it. You might grab a
Speaker 1: chainsaw and run into an elderly nursing home if you
Speaker 1: had on that in your system. State's Attorney's Office included
Speaker 1: the Saint Charles police officer had the reasonable belief that
Speaker 1: the deadly force he employed wasn't necessary to prevent death
Speaker 1: or great bodily harm to himself and other individuals. True, now,
Speaker 1: who could argue with that? Forty five ifty five carecy
Speaker 1: the talk station? More stupid coming up? Hope you can
Speaker 1: stick around right back? Fifty five the talk station.
Speaker 9: Did you know even the smallest increase in mortgage rates
Speaker 9: can cost you thousands?
Speaker 1: It is five forty nine and it's happy Monday to you.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go over to the phones here before I
Speaker 1: get back to the stack as stupid, and I'll take
Speaker 1: Luke's call. Luke, thanks for calling this morning. I hope
Speaker 1: you're having a decent Monday so far.
Speaker 6: Yeah.
Speaker 10: Hey, we're just getting start of your head into work.
Speaker 10: So in reference to Mississippi, James, I'm a Trump supporter.
Speaker 10: I've been a Trump supporter for some time now, since
Speaker 10: his first presidency. I don't know exactly what address it was.
Speaker 10: I've been I've been supporting a long.
Speaker 6: Musk for some time.
Speaker 10: But when I'm watching that, whatever address it was, he
Speaker 10: made a heck of a hand gesture. I know he's
Speaker 10: not a Nazi because you'd have to be in Germany
Speaker 10: and the late thirties, early forties. He's not a Nazi,
Speaker 10: that shit. That word is so misused, but he certainly
Speaker 10: made a heck of a hand jesture. I'll give him
Speaker 10: a simmy James, And I don't know how you want
Speaker 10: to say picture. I'm watching him live address when it happened,
Speaker 10: and when I saw him do it my own health, Belisa,
Speaker 10: my first initial thought was out of the old hand, Jester,
Speaker 10: and that's all I got to say.
Speaker 1: Not fair enough, But I guess you have to put
Speaker 1: it in context. Has he ever uttered things that are
Speaker 1: Nazi like? Has he ever, you know, maybe he suggested
Speaker 1: rounding up the Jews and killing them. Has he advocated
Speaker 1: for the tenets of national socialism? No, So, you know,
Speaker 1: regardless of how and under what circumstances it happened, since
Speaker 1: he doesn't advocate for things Nazi and has never been
Speaker 1: that way, he has a well an easily reviewable record
Speaker 1: in terms of politics of what he's done throughout his life.
Speaker 1: Means the label just doesn't apply. So, you know, we
Speaker 1: live in a We live in a social media world
Speaker 1: here where anything can be place, A label can be
Speaker 1: placed on anything. You ever heard of a meme? Yeah,
Speaker 1: the means go viral. Look, Elon Musk is doing a
Speaker 1: Nazi salote? Is he really? How about some contacts for
Speaker 1: that one?
Speaker 10: Uh?
Speaker 1: Notorious killer serving life in prison without the possibility of
Speaker 1: parole for the murder of four men in Los Angeles
Speaker 1: County strangled his wife to death during a conjugal visit.
Speaker 1: This happened late last year, and no question about that.
Speaker 1: David Brinson was serving four consecutive life sentences, most recently
Speaker 1: The place called Mule Creek State Prison in north northern
Speaker 1: California's Mdor County, also now accused of killing his wife.
Speaker 1: Conjugal visits referred to there as family visits. Yeah, jail,
Speaker 1: you got that right. Held in a private apartment like
Speaker 1: facility on prison grounds. Visits restricted to immediate family members,
Speaker 1: including legal spouses, parents and children. They last between thirty
Speaker 1: to forty hours. What that was my reaction officials with
Speaker 1: the California Department of cresh and set. Around two am
Speaker 1: November thirteenth last year, Benson told police officers his wife's
Speaker 1: sixty two year old Stephanie Brinson, had passed out. Prison
Speaker 1: staff attempted life saving measures, but she was declared dead
Speaker 1: about three am. Quarter of the reporting from the Independent
Speaker 1: County Corners confirmed some four months after her death that
Speaker 1: she was in fact strangled. At his trial for the sentencing,
Speaker 1: He was sentenced to prison back in nineteen ninety four
Speaker 1: for the June nineteen ninety murders of four men in
Speaker 1: Los Angeles, including a retired tavern overname owner tavern owner
Speaker 1: named Robert Marx. Witness has testified Brinson believed the former
Speaker 1: tavern owner was a well connected cocaine dealer when he
Speaker 1: showed up at Mark's garage apartment with a gun and
Speaker 1: two accomplices hoping to rob Marks for drugs and money.
Speaker 1: Witness has testified that Brenson, after searching the apartment and
Speaker 1: finding only a little bit of marijuana, shot Marks and
Speaker 1: three other men execution styled as they lay face down
Speaker 1: on the floor of the bedroom, hence his four consecutive
Speaker 1: life prisons. Geez all right, listeners, know my dog lover
Speaker 1: and Joe get ready to issue an award, because we've
Speaker 1: got an award to hand out here this morning we
Speaker 1: got to Orlando, Florida. A woman drowned her dog in
Speaker 1: an a Florida Airport bathroom and then boarded her international
Speaker 1: flight after she was prevented from bringing the white miniature
Speaker 1: schnauzer with her because of a paperwork issue. Arrested in
Speaker 1: Lake County Wednesday charge of aggravated animal abuse, third degree felony,
Speaker 1: she was released on five thousand dollars bail or led.
Speaker 1: The police said this act was intentionally resulted in a
Speaker 1: cruel and an unnecessary death of the animal. Investigation to
Speaker 1: the death of a nine year old schnauzer named Taiwin
Speaker 1: started in December. Janitor found the dog in a trash
Speaker 1: bag in a bathroom with the stall in the international airport.
Speaker 1: He had earlier seen the woman in the stall cleaning
Speaker 1: up water and dog food from the stall's floor. Janitor
Speaker 1: got pulled away for a cleanup emergency, showed up back
Speaker 1: to the bathroom twenty minutes later, and that's when she
Speaker 1: found Taiwan in the trash container, along with a companion
Speaker 1: vest collar, rabies tag, dog travel bag, and a bone
Speaker 1: shaped dog tag with a woman's name and phone number
Speaker 1: on it. Surveillance cameras captured the woman speaking for fifteen
Speaker 1: minutes to the airline's agent with the dog, walking to
Speaker 1: the bathroom near the tickting area with the dog, and
Speaker 1: exiting the bathroom without the dog twenty minutes later. Woman
Speaker 1: then went outside the terminal building, re entered a short
Speaker 1: time later, went through security boarded the Columbia bound plane.
Speaker 1: Thorty said the woman had been told she couldn't bring
Speaker 1: the dog aboard because she did not have the proper paperwork.
Speaker 1: According to the US Department of Agriculture, dogs coming in
Speaker 1: from the US to Columbia must be accompanied by a
Speaker 1: veteran is or veterinarian issued health certificate and rabies vaccine certificate.
Speaker 1: Dog identified by its implanted microchip, and a net cropsy
Speaker 1: determined Taiwan had been drowned. US Customs Border Protection also
Speaker 1: confirmed two detectives that the woman had boarded the flight
Speaker 1: to Bogota, Columbia, and then flew to Ecuador. Let her
Speaker 1: have it, Joe.
Speaker 11: Aeris the biggest douche of the universe, in all the galaxies.
Speaker 11: There's no bigger douche than you. You've reached the top,
Speaker 11: the pinnacle of douche.
Speaker 4: Do good going, douce.
Speaker 1: Can your dreams have come true? That's just horrific? Five
Speaker 1: point fifty five five K see talk station uh full
Speaker 1: our open conversation. Feel free to columns here that are
Speaker 1: of the topics I would love to hear from you.
Speaker 1: I'll be right back. Joe says no more on Nazi salutes.
Speaker 1: Joe's added up to his eyeballs on that one. Fair enough.
Speaker 1: Joe exercises editorial discretion because he's the one, is the
Speaker 1: call screener. Thank you, Joe, stick around me back after
Speaker 1: the news.

Speaker 1: sea dot com. Get your podcasts in my conversation with
Speaker 1: Corey Bowman. Of course, running from there, there's a debate
Speaker 1: this week with the tab Pervall and others. Steve Schumach's
Speaker 1: got a new trilogy series out, or at least he
Speaker 1: has a new third version of the trilogy series. It's
Speaker 1: called The Dark World Saga apparently has a lot of
Speaker 1: religious overtones, but this fantasy series. And he's a local
Speaker 1: author and his wife renowned for being a pioneer in homeschooling,
Speaker 1: Ta Shue make she's a wonderful lady. So he married,
Speaker 1: and he out kicked his coverage with Tea and he
Speaker 1: Hey Tech Friday with Dave Hatter and thanks again to
Speaker 1: Dave for a passing along the information about the digital
Speaker 1: cryptocurrencies and the idea that we should be able to
Speaker 1: have some cash to spend money on talked about that
Speaker 1: in the opening segment Last Hour. Let us see here
Speaker 1: coming up seven twenty with a former vice mayor of
Speaker 1: the City of Cincinnati, Christopher Smith Aman with a Smith
Speaker 1: event we got to Empower you seminar to talk about
Speaker 1: with Mark or Scott Zimmerman. It's taking place March twenty fifth,
Speaker 1: Blue Lights and Human Health. So if that doesn't sound
Speaker 1: like it rings a bell to you, I mean your
Speaker 1: category either. It's also I have to read the materials,
Speaker 1: but that's all. We'll have Scott for to tell us
Speaker 1: all about it at eight forty So lots of free
Speaker 1: time to talk with you. If you care to call
Speaker 1: and make a comment, I would love that. Let us
Speaker 1: see here, you know which direction to go this morning?
Speaker 1: Some pulling information out. It's rather interesting now while everybody
Speaker 1: screams and yells about Elon Musk and Donald Trump, and
Speaker 1: actually Elon Musk is getting more press and criticism and
Speaker 1: actually praise in some cases than Donald Trump. But you know,
Speaker 1: Donald Trump is the initiator, and of course DOGE is
Speaker 1: the entity that's looking for fraud, waste and abuse, and
Speaker 1: I applaud that effort. We're finding out, you know, and
Speaker 1: it's a real eye opening thing, especially with USAID how
Speaker 1: much of that money loops back to support left wing
Speaker 1: causes quite a bunch. And I saw this article over
Speaker 1: on zero Hedge is apparently a data analyst out there,
Speaker 1: Tony Saruga, and he made a post on X the
Speaker 1: other day which is really eye opening in a couple
Speaker 1: of levels. First, there's the privacy l and it's this
Speaker 1: is kind of reflective of the kind of thing that
Speaker 1: Dave hat Or talks about all the time. You know,
Speaker 1: your devices are tracking you, your devices are watching you,
Speaker 1: your devices are recording what you are. But then also
Speaker 1: that social media aggregation and the aggregation of all this
Speaker 1: data on you, and so in so far as these
Speaker 1: Democrat rallies are concerned, and oh my god, thirty four
Speaker 1: thousand people out in Denver, largest political rally there since
Speaker 1: two thousand and eight, screens US Senator Bernie Sanders, this
Speaker 1: sort of organic, you know, resistance to Donald Trump, anti oligarchy,
Speaker 1: no oligarchy, no to trump Ism. I don't sure what
Speaker 1: they're offering by way of alternative. And there's some polling
Speaker 1: data out there that indicates the Democrats themselves don't know
Speaker 1: what they want to do. Do we shift further left
Speaker 1: and embrace the far left wing of the party. Do
Speaker 1: we embrace the moderates in the party. They're kind of
Speaker 1: divided down the center on which direction to go. But
Speaker 1: with that in mind, there was this big rally out there.
Speaker 1: You may have even read about it. So in Tony Sigura,
Speaker 1: the data analyst, apparently revealing how much information they've got
Speaker 1: about out there, he said there were twenty and eighty
Speaker 1: nine devices meaning cell phones. Basically still a large crowd
Speaker 1: and not even close to the thirty thousand quoted by
Speaker 1: the Denver newspapers of the thirty four thousand quote by
Speaker 1: Bernie Sanders. So some argument over how many people actually
Speaker 1: showed up, But the real fun fact startup when he
Speaker 1: started revealing the number crunching that we're done. Eighty four
Speaker 1: percent of the devices presented had attended nine or more
Speaker 1: Kamala Harris rallies, Antifat, slash BLM, pro Hamas pro Palestinian protests.
Speaker 1: Thirty one percent of the folks there had attended over
Speaker 1: twenty of these rallies. Huh, same folks showing up being
Speaker 1: toted around to these to show up at these rallies,
Speaker 1: he said, for more insight, into what data we also
Speaker 1: looked at In addition to GPS location data would be
Speaker 1: demographic and psychographic data using over six thousand different database
Speaker 1: And this again goes back to what Dave always talking about,
Speaker 1: I e. Like the Bureau of Labor Statistics, Pew Research Center,
Speaker 1: market research firms like you gov experience specialized tools like
Speaker 1: esri's Tapestry segmentation. No, I don't know what that is either,
Speaker 1: consumer survey, social media platforms like as Facebook and LinkedIn.
Speaker 1: Demographic data includes basic characteristics like age, gender, income, education level, occupation,
Speaker 1: marital status, family size, ethnicity, and where people live like
Speaker 1: city and state. All this data compiled in your own
Speaker 1: personal dossier basically, and they can cross reference it. Once
Speaker 1: they figure out where you are from a GPS signal,
Speaker 1: then they can determine who you are and understand all
Speaker 1: this information. Now moving over to what he car described
Speaker 1: as psychographic data, he writes it dives deeper into people's lifestyles, values, attitudes, interests, personality, traits,
Speaker 1: social class, activities, and how they make purchasing the decisions.
Speaker 1: For example, it might show if someone values sustainability, enjoys
Speaker 1: outdoor activities, participates in community activism. He wrote, while democratic
Speaker 1: data is straightforward, psychographic data can reveal sensitive personal details
Speaker 1: like beliefs even life goals. Additionally, by cross pollinating each
Speaker 1: device with other devices regularly within close proximity to the
Speaker 1: target device, really able to build a detailed profile of
Speaker 1: each target. Ninety percent of those in the above eighty
Speaker 1: four percent, the folks that had attended all these events
Speaker 1: multiple times were likely working with one of these five groups,
Speaker 1: and it is the reason for their presence. Once again,
Speaker 1: this is based on very sophisticated algorithm that looks at
Speaker 1: the behavioral metrics for each device, including the physical one
Speaker 1: to one proximity to leaders and paymasters from these groups
Speaker 1: in the past. And here's the groups he identifies. Eruption Project,
Speaker 1: Rise and Resist, Individual Project, Troublemakers, and the Democratic Socialists
Speaker 1: of America each receives money from Act Blue and at
Speaker 1: least three via usaid. Ah, there's the connection, he said.
Speaker 1: Disruption Project legal status is unclear, likely operating illegally his conclusion,
Speaker 1: and I don't know upon what he based that. I'll
Speaker 1: admit that Rise and Resist is a five O one
Speaker 1: C four nonprofit individual project. Also five A one C
Speaker 1: four nonprofit trouble Makers legal status is for profit Democratic
Speaker 1: Socialists of America. I'm not sure that one. So is
Speaker 1: it an organic gathering of people who were drawn to
Speaker 1: hear Bernie Sanders and Alexandria Ziocortes talking about no oligachriy,
Speaker 1: no to authoritarianism, no to trump Ism. Or is this
Speaker 1: paid organization basically relying upon your taxpayer dollars as funnel
Speaker 1: through groups like USAID, or maybe even just a check
Speaker 1: written from George Soros's pocket, which he's allowed to do.
Speaker 1: I mean, George Soros can spend his money however he once.
Speaker 1: But the idea that USAID has been used to undermine
Speaker 1: conservative ideology, Libertarian ideology has been used to support left
Speaker 1: wing causes, promote and pump up something that clearly is
Speaker 1: not popular among the American people, like DEI CRT and
Speaker 1: the the left wing transgender agenda. Perhaps this is the problem.
Speaker 1: And if you wonder why they're pulling their hair out,
Speaker 1: why these organizations, And I'm going to suggest that these
Speaker 1: tesla attacks not just sort of you know, one off
Speaker 1: people getting a wild hair and seeing a tesla and
Speaker 1: decide to shoot it up with a firearm. That's somewhere
Speaker 1: behind This seems one of these organizations is pushing for
Speaker 1: this and encouraging it and coordinating it, which is going
Speaker 1: to give rise to a RICO count. You know, Bondi
Speaker 1: has said that we're going to prosecute you folks to
Speaker 1: the fullest extent of the law, and to the extent
Speaker 1: they can draw a line between any one of these
Speaker 1: organizations and organized criminality. That is RICO two or more
Speaker 1: people engaged in conspiracy to commit organized crime. It is
Speaker 1: organized when you are organizing it, and this is criminal behavior.
Speaker 1: And I got a big kick out of the fact
Speaker 1: that Elon Musk's vehicles they've got a security feature and
Speaker 1: that you can operate and of course, you know people
Speaker 1: who owned Teslas know that they have cameras in them,
Speaker 1: a multiple cameras. So there's a thing called Centry mode.
Speaker 1: And if you want to make sure your car isn't attacked,
Speaker 1: and if it is attacked, that you can capture and
Speaker 1: identify the people who attacked your car, just turn on
Speaker 1: the Sentry mode. It keeps the cameras and sensors the
Speaker 1: vehicle powered on and ready to record suspicious activity when
Speaker 1: it happens. Corner the manual for the Tesla three. You
Speaker 1: think a Center Mode as an intelligent vehicle security system
Speaker 1: that alerts you when it detects possible threats nearby. Tesla
Speaker 1: vehicles with Center Mode activated will pulse the headlights, sound
Speaker 1: the alarm, and display message on the touch screens. Seeing
Speaker 1: the cameras may be recording as a warning to those
Speaker 1: outside the vehicle if a threat is detected to the
Speaker 1: sensors pick up what it is described as jerky movements
Speaker 1: like being towed or shaken. It also saves the footage.
Speaker 1: It reports the information to the owner's Tesla mobile app
Speaker 1: and saves the footage in the event of the event
Speaker 1: under a USB drive if installed in the vehicle. So
Speaker 1: the only thing is your battery has to be powered
Speaker 1: at least twenty percent to make it work when the
Speaker 1: car is turned off. So there's an option for Tesla
Speaker 1: owners out there, and I just find it absolutely open
Speaker 1: on so many levels for all these former environmentalists to
Speaker 1: be burning Teslas and attacking them merely because Elon Musk
Speaker 1: is trying to save us from ourselves. Ah, I feel
Speaker 1: free to call love to hear from somebody five and
Speaker 1: three seven four nine fifty five hundred. I got to
Speaker 1: wait for Christopher's Smithman to show up at seven twenty.
Speaker 1: QC Kinetics maybe the group of your pain. They offer
Speaker 1: a free consultation to find out if these natural regenitive
Speaker 1: medicine therapies can help you get rid of your arthritic
Speaker 1: pain and provide you with lasting relief without drugs and
Speaker 1: surgery and downtime. It's in office procedure. So if you're
Speaker 1: having problems like, for example, picking up the kids, sleeping, walking,
Speaker 1: your day to day movement has been impacted by the pain,
Speaker 1: You're not interested in having surgery because it comes with
Speaker 1: uncertainty as well as a long recovery time. Maybe you've
Speaker 1: talked to your doctor about that angle and you miss
Speaker 1: doing things that you love like walking and goffing, maybe
Speaker 1: picking up the grandchildren, anyone that happens to be. So
Speaker 1: if it's yes, any of the four going, you may
Speaker 1: be a great candidates to find out from the people
Speaker 1: of QC Kinetics by taking advantage of the free consultation.

Speaker 1: KRCD Talk Station. What are from now? A little lesson
Speaker 1: now hopefully seven twenty with Christopher Smithing and then we'll
Speaker 1: find out what blue Light and human health is all
Speaker 1: about at eight forty in the meantime over the phones
Speaker 1: and God bless west Side Jim Keefer saving me from
Speaker 1: myself on a Monday as I try to wake up
Speaker 1: Wes Saie. Jim, thank you for calling this morning.
Speaker 6: He shall a little desperate with hit test.
Speaker 1: I you know, I hate and I hate sounding that way,
Speaker 1: but you know there's some I just don't like this
Speaker 1: sound my own voice. And I don't know if I'm
Speaker 1: handing out information that's valuable people or not. But I
Speaker 1: know there's a million topics out there, and I, of
Speaker 1: course I left of my discretion, it would go down whatever
Speaker 1: road I choose to. But I like hearing from my
Speaker 1: callers and you know, wanting to know what there's, what's
Speaker 1: on their mind and sometimes interesting and sometimes enlightening and
Speaker 1: sometimes informative but you know somebody else's voice sometimes like me, yeah, exactly,
Speaker 1: and we never know which direction you're going to go.
Speaker 8: Jim, Well, I've got one this morning that you can
Speaker 8: maybe help me out on. And I know you dabble
Speaker 8: in the political field, but I got something that hit
Speaker 8: me over the weekend and has really been bugging the
Speaker 8: heck out of me. Trying and keep it clean so
Speaker 8: you don't have to hit that dumb button. Well, like
Speaker 8: when Corey was on, that was kind of he was
Speaker 8: so bad.
Speaker 1: Oh my god, you look on his face.
Speaker 6: He said, he's got to learn the rules.
Speaker 8: But I think there's a false platform and maybe you
Speaker 8: can either argue with me on this or not with
Speaker 8: There's two Republicans and a Democrat for mayor and this
Speaker 8: is a there's a seven o'clock debate tomorrow night. Is
Speaker 8: a cove Del Theater up on Glenway, right up from
Speaker 8: prysl Chile, open to the public and open to the public,
Speaker 8: and I'm sure it's going to be packed. But they
Speaker 8: do take written questions, but they only usually take two
Speaker 8: or three from the crowd. Most of the time it's
Speaker 8: ahead of time and then they you know, kind of
Speaker 8: go through. But anyway, there might be some shenanigans going
Speaker 8: on because this one of our Republican candidates, and he
Speaker 8: back in somewhere around twenty sixteen twenty seventeen started donating
Speaker 8: money to Democrats and so forth, and he did actually
Speaker 8: pull Republican ballots. But now in twenty twenty three, it's
Speaker 8: been out now that he has pulled Democratic ballance ballots.
Speaker 8: I'm sorry to vote in city elections. And that just
Speaker 8: kind of gets to me because there's been rumors behind
Speaker 8: the scenes that, you know, Corey's a great candidate, especially
Speaker 8: for the Republican side, a breath of fresh air that
Speaker 8: we haven't had in a long time. And I'm kind
Speaker 8: of feeling that I'm not going to use the word
Speaker 8: plant per se, but I don't know if there's something
Speaker 8: going on that they're so afraid of Corey Bowman that
Speaker 8: they have to actually push And I know he's been
Speaker 8: the other gentleman has been talked to about possibly moving
Speaker 8: over to the city council race, and that way we
Speaker 8: wouldn't have the primary for the mayor and just let
Speaker 8: Corey and Purval go after each other, right, which I
Speaker 8: think is going to happen anyway, But it takes away
Speaker 8: from the Republican as far as donor money and everything else.
Speaker 8: But I just got a feeling that there's something going
Speaker 8: on the word the man pulls twenty twenty three ballots
Speaker 8: for the Democrats, Why what reasoning? And I'm going to
Speaker 8: submit that question tomorrow and I and see if they
Speaker 8: number one, if they produce it to him, and number two,
Speaker 8: if he'll answer it correctly. Because he's been to our
Speaker 8: club a couple of times and talked, and none of
Speaker 8: the city subjects have come up about purval. He doesn't
Speaker 8: talk about it. He doesn't say anything you know, negative, or.
Speaker 6: Brings it up.
Speaker 8: He has talked just real quick about a pothole situation.
Speaker 8: But I just have real questions and a real funny
Speaker 8: feeling that something's going on here behind the scenes from
Speaker 8: the Democratic Party that that is trying to maybe knock
Speaker 8: Cory out, which I don't think is.
Speaker 1: Going to happen. Well, see, that was what I was
Speaker 1: going to go. Cory's got pretty good name recognition, he's
Speaker 1: you know, got He's been out meeting all kinds of
Speaker 1: Republicans I think he has. He stands a much much
Speaker 1: higher likelihood of winning the primary. This is the top
Speaker 1: two vote getters is going to be a have to
Speaker 1: have provol and probably Corey Bowman, which means the other
Speaker 1: guy is not going to be a contender and can't
Speaker 1: split the race when it comes into November or it
Speaker 1: comes to the election, right.
Speaker 8: I just don't know understand, And you know, I've been
Speaker 8: around politics for a week or two and I just
Speaker 8: don't understand why this is being important. Maybe it's just
Speaker 8: because my foil hat's getting on there too tight, but
Speaker 8: I just don't understand why this is happening.
Speaker 1: I have no explanation for that either. Gem It's as
Speaker 1: puzzling to me as it is to you, especially for
Speaker 1: a guy who's not on political solid ground, given him
Speaker 1: going back and forth between the Democrat support and Republican support,
Speaker 1: I don't know how in this day and age you
Speaker 1: can run that way. I mean, it doesn't depend which
Speaker 1: side of the bet he gets out of the morning,
Speaker 1: whether he's a Republican or Democrat. I have no willing
Speaker 1: of answering this questions. It always appeared to me to
Speaker 1: be really strange though that that information is out there
Speaker 1: and exists, and a lot of his ex account, you know,
Speaker 1: blurbs also show strong support for some rather controversial Democrat candidates,
Speaker 1: at least I would call them controversial, like.
Speaker 8: You Bet Simpson in the payoffs and others.
Speaker 6: Yeah, but it is.
Speaker 8: I just wanted your opinion on a radio so people
Speaker 8: could actually hear it. Maybe don't go on X or
Speaker 8: hear things like this.
Speaker 6: I wanted them to.
Speaker 8: And if they have to vote in the city, I
Speaker 8: want this kind of information out there to make them
Speaker 8: go hmm, maybe something is going on and maybe Corey,
Speaker 8: if they were going back and forth through to vote
Speaker 8: for maybe that will push him over his side for sure.
Speaker 1: Well, Corey's promised to start, I mean, if he wins
Speaker 1: the primary, he's promised that he will thoroughly engage Democrats
Speaker 1: and thoroughly get out of the neighborhoods that have been
Speaker 1: ill served by the Democrats who've been running the city
Speaker 1: for the last several decades. And right now his focus
Speaker 1: is on interacting with Republicans who will be the one
Speaker 1: that will decide whether they're going to vote for him
Speaker 1: or somebody else on the in the primary. And I
Speaker 1: think if he does that, this type of information that
Speaker 1: you are aware of and your fellow engaged Republicans are
Speaker 1: already aware of will ensure that Corey does win the primary.
Speaker 6: Let's hope.
Speaker 1: So let's keep spreading the word. Jim. That's what you're
Speaker 1: that's the role that you've got and we certainly appreciate
Speaker 1: it out here in the world. Thanks for staying on
Speaker 1: top of the matters, Jim. I do a pree shade

Speaker 1: Apologies for sending a little bit desperate on this. I
Speaker 1: did not have a great weekend for reasons that I
Speaker 1: have no idea, and I'm still have a sense of
Speaker 1: just sort of being out of place this morning, just
Speaker 1: I don't know, it's just like this weird. I don't
Speaker 1: want to say bad mood, but my wife even noticed
Speaker 1: and asked me about it because there's something wrong. I'm like, yes,
Speaker 1: yes there is, and I have no idea what, and
Speaker 1: trust me, it's not you. So probably for apologies for
Speaker 1: the carryover, and I hate to bring whatever is bothering
Speaker 1: me the fifty five KRC morning show, but at least
Speaker 1: I'm providing you with an explanation for my well, my
Speaker 1: behavior this morning. Anyhow, New Hampshire, Gary, thanks for calling
Speaker 1: this morning, and a happy Monday to you.
Speaker 2: All is well with Jesus, per fith In Jesus, everything
Speaker 2: will be better.
Speaker 1: Brian, I can use them around here to lay hands
Speaker 1: right now.
Speaker 2: O'say, Brian, You're deeply loved here. I can tell you
Speaker 2: we really there's a whole group. I know for sure
Speaker 2: that I appreciate you. I appreciate that man, very thankful.
Speaker 2: We're not going to let you retire ever anyhow And anyhow,
Speaker 2: so I was I talked to a lot of people
Speaker 2: up here in New Hampshire and we're in southern New
Speaker 2: Hampshire near Boston. I guess sixty miles it's about thirty
Speaker 2: miles too close.
Speaker 12: But there's there's a lot of you just you talk
Speaker 12: to people and you're like, what are you taking? What
Speaker 12: are you thinking.
Speaker 2: And a lot of them are really thinking that, you know,
Speaker 2: Tesla bad Elon Moss really bad for exposing the government corruption.
Speaker 2: And they really believe that because to them it's there.
Speaker 2: It's almost like it is a religion that government shall
Speaker 2: take care of you. And I suppose that a lot
Speaker 2: of them are being taken care of because I know
Speaker 2: where I work, the engineering department, mostly well educated engineers
Speaker 2: that went to really good schools. They're all in their thirties,
Speaker 2: none of them are married, none of them have children,
Speaker 2: and all of them pledge their loyalty to government and
Speaker 2: really the you know, they're they're all Bernie Sanders accolytes.
Speaker 13: For the most part.
Speaker 2: And we've got a couple that AOC would be perfectly
Speaker 2: fine with. And you know, I guess they're student loans.
Speaker 2: They're the hand that feeds them is all ti up
Speaker 2: in government and like they could care less about their
Speaker 2: social security. They're like it's always going to be there, yes,
Speaker 2: And they really have no sense of money. They're because
Speaker 2: they're all socialists. Most are socialists, not all, but most
Speaker 2: are socialists, and they really thrive on this, you know,
Speaker 2: live and party today. And they to me, they seem
Speaker 2: they seem a little lost.
Speaker 1: You know, well, I guess they fail to look behind
Speaker 1: the veneer of their socialist ideology to appreciate that it
Speaker 1: collapses upon itself. It's like the information I've provided earlier
Speaker 1: about the Social Security situation. You know, it's by definition,
Speaker 1: it's literally a Ponzi scheme. All the money that comes
Speaker 1: in is going right out the door to pay for
Speaker 1: those who put in money into the program. There's no
Speaker 1: trust fund out there that has all of this money
Speaker 1: in that can you know, satisfy the promises made by government.
Speaker 1: And it's collapsing. And people have been talking about this
Speaker 1: for the last fifteen to twenty years at least, you know,
Speaker 1: and the government's own records reflected and you know, Elon
Speaker 1: Musk says it out loud, and people accuse him of
Speaker 1: wanting to get rid of Social Security. He's like, wait
Speaker 1: a second, I'm just trying to save it, you know,
Speaker 1: and you get mad at him for that. I think
Speaker 1: their ideology blinds them to the fiscal problems that this creates.
Speaker 1: It's a you know, I just have no other way
Speaker 1: of explaining it. You know. Maybe it is like religion.
Speaker 1: You're talk about having faith in Jesus. You know, you
Speaker 1: have to have that leap of faith and they have
Speaker 1: a leap of faith that socialism is going to ultimately
Speaker 1: work when every time it's been tried it has been
Speaker 1: an absolute miserable failure for the financial implications and reasons
Speaker 1: that it brings about. You know, it's sad, It's really
Speaker 1: really sad. And you know, man diagnosable, you know, psychological
Speaker 1: problem or something. Gary Todd hang on amount of time
Speaker 1: in the segment, but I really truly want to talk
Speaker 1: to you. So if you don't mind holding for just
Speaker 1: a couple minutes here six thirty eight fifty five K

Speaker 1: and a happy Monday to you, sir Brian.
Speaker 15: Top of the money too.
Speaker 7: You.
Speaker 16: I'm passing positive.
Speaker 17: Modio over to you, brother, appreciate it.
Speaker 16: Yeah, everybody, yeah, every day, every now and then, you
Speaker 16: need a little pick me up, right, Yeah.
Speaker 1: And I don't know if it's because I feel like
Speaker 1: I need a vacation or I just I don't know.
Speaker 1: I just I was in just a foul mood over
Speaker 1: the weekend for no reason. I couldn't put my finger
Speaker 1: on it again. My wife noticed it, and I just
Speaker 1: I don't know, I don't know, I don't know.
Speaker 16: You know, listen, even the most positive people pill you know,
Speaker 16: you're going to have those kind of days. A wes
Speaker 16: is just going to happen. So hey, I was calling
Speaker 16: about this is our lucky day. President Trump is going
Speaker 16: to privatize the post Office. I mean, what an abomination.
Speaker 16: You know, these people are the same people that think
Speaker 16: Social Security is going to last. Their pension is going
Speaker 16: to last through the rest of their lives. You know,
Speaker 16: I mean, do I need mail six times a week?
Speaker 2: No?
Speaker 16: What's in the mail?
Speaker 4: Junk mail?
Speaker 16: I mean, Brian, how many companies could lose eight to
Speaker 16: ten billion dollars a year for ten years and stay
Speaker 16: in business.
Speaker 1: None?
Speaker 16: So, thank the Lord, we have people like Trump, who's
Speaker 16: a businessman that knows it can't survive.
Speaker 1: Well, at least, you know, they could relax in the
Speaker 1: rules in terms of the ones they've got in place
Speaker 1: that have been a preventative have been preventing rather fixes
Speaker 1: to the post office business model. The post Office should
Speaker 1: have the flexibility of any other organization to hire people,
Speaker 1: fire people, change the businesiness model and practices. And there's
Speaker 1: an article a Postal Service cut fifty million work hours,
Speaker 1: closed a bunch of facilities and saved billions of dollars.
Speaker 1: They've been engaged in this ten year action plan called
Speaker 1: Delivering for America, and it's actually bearing a little bit
Speaker 1: of fruit. They're still losing billions of dollars annually, but
Speaker 1: it sounds like that they're at least trying to take
Speaker 1: some steps in the right direction. But as the article
Speaker 1: points out the problem is they are prevented not only
Speaker 1: by the union and the collective bargaining agreement with the
Speaker 1: Post Office, but by the rules that are in place
Speaker 1: from Congress, which prevent them from implementing some substantial changes
Speaker 1: to their business model.
Speaker 16: It's well, that gets back to the whole Republican Democrats
Speaker 16: can't work together, and so on and so forth.
Speaker 17: But I just I'm glad he's going to I hope
Speaker 17: it works.
Speaker 16: Like I said, it's just another bloated government agency with union.
Speaker 7: And I don't really think against.
Speaker 16: Unions because I think some companies try to scrup people.
Speaker 16: So I've never been in the union, but I've been
Speaker 16: wrapping laid off. But at the end of the day,
Speaker 16: you cannot run a business losing eight to ten million
Speaker 16: dollars a year. And I just it's it's twenty twenty
Speaker 16: five nine, nineteen seventy where we need mail delivered every day.
Speaker 15: Yeah, so hey, I'll let you go.
Speaker 17: I'll do a great week.

Speaker 1: Scott This morning, Tom, thanks for calling the morning show
Speaker 1: and a happy Monday to you.
Speaker 9: Maryan, What what the sort of made you feel better?
Speaker 9: You need to have more of the homemade sourdough bread.
Speaker 9: Maybe have some toasts in the morning with the eggs,
Speaker 9: and then some sour dough grilled cheese sandwiches for lunch.
Speaker 1: Well, you know, because of my low carbon I have
Speaker 1: reduced the amount of cars. I did have some homemade
Speaker 1: sourdough bread, thanks to my wife for making another loaf.
Speaker 1: She's been making it every weekend and Saturday was no different,
Speaker 1: so I did get that and uh, for for whatever reason,
Speaker 1: didn't help.
Speaker 9: Well anyway, I'm also all for Trump's cutting these programs.
Speaker 9: There's way too much government workers and government bloat and waste,
Speaker 9: and yeah, it'll get get better.
Speaker 4: I hope.
Speaker 1: So and there's a glimmer of hope. But you know,
Speaker 1: and as I stare out of this landscape of you know,
Speaker 1: left wing activists protesting the getting the elimination is fraud, waste,
Speaker 1: and abuse that which is again designed to save these
Speaker 1: systems from themselves. And I think maybe all behind all
Speaker 1: this agitation is they just realize that their government funded
Speaker 1: political action money is going to dry up. And that
Speaker 1: seems to be the direction. A lot of this information
Speaker 1: that we've now been that's now been revealed in the American
Speaker 1: public is reflecting usayed. One prime example, the money loop
Speaker 1: goes from Washington, allegedly out to foreign countries or maybe not,
Speaker 1: and then back into Washington to fund lobbying organizations like
Speaker 1: the ones that are organizing these big you know, rallies
Speaker 1: with with Bernie Sanders and alexandri Ocasio Cortes. Anyhow, back
Speaker 1: over to the Postal Service. I had this article that
Speaker 1: provided a lot of information on the reality of what's
Speaker 1: going on. So they just they announced last Thursday, US
Speaker 1: Postal Service you know, through the Postmaster General Lewis de Joy,
Speaker 1: saying they've already saved billions of dollars annually, cutting fifty
Speaker 1: million work hours, closing some unnecessary facilities, and increasing plant productivity,
Speaker 1: saying it translated a two point five billion in annual
Speaker 1: savings according to their March twentieth statements. Reductions part of
Speaker 1: what is described as the Delivering for America initial cap.
Speaker 1: On that plan, it's a ten year plan to implement
Speaker 1: changes to promote their you know, financial efficiency and operational efficiency.
Speaker 1: Postmaster Jajoy said that the United States Postal Service had
Speaker 1: terminated thirty thousand workers since fiscal year twenty twenty one.
Speaker 1: Prior administration, another ten thousand workers expected it laid off
Speaker 1: within a month, he said. In addition to work hour savings,
Speaker 1: Delivering for America has resulted in two point two billion
Speaker 1: in annual transportation cost reductions by streamlining networks and optimizing
Speaker 1: air and service options. See the business model needed improvement,
Speaker 1: and that's what they're struggling to do right now. They said,
Speaker 1: it's not going to impact your mail service. There may
Speaker 1: be some regions that might experience a maybe a one
Speaker 1: day delay, but overall delivery speeds for both mail and
Speaker 1: package is expected to actually improve. According to the announcement,
Speaker 1: refinements in service standards are announced. The claim that will
Speaker 1: save the agency a minimum of thirty six billion dollars
Speaker 1: over the next decade through reductions in real estate, date transportation,
Speaker 1: and mail and package costs. The JOY said last month
Speaker 1: Postmaster the postal system has long been burdened by rules
Speaker 1: that failed to account for changes in mail volume and mix,
Speaker 1: which no one can deny has actually came about because
Speaker 1: of email and the Internet, resulted in costly and ineffective
Speaker 1: operations quote for decades, and most specifically during the last
Speaker 1: three years, Congress has actively resisted operational solutions and meaningful change,
Speaker 1: Congress standing in the way. New ups cost reg reduction
Speaker 1: plan comes after the agency reported a net loss of
Speaker 1: nine point five billion dollars for last fiscal year, three
Speaker 1: billion more than fiscal twenty twenty three, in spite of
Speaker 1: and how does this happen? Revenues rising going up to
Speaker 1: seven hundred and eight or seventy eight point onenty eight
Speaker 1: billion to seventy nine point five to three billion, more
Speaker 1: than a billion additional revenue, and yet three billion dollars
Speaker 1: more in loss. How does that happen? Last week, Postmaster
Speaker 1: informed congressional lawmakers that the postal system had signed an
Speaker 1: agreement with the Department of Governmental Efficiency DOGE and the
Speaker 1: General Service Administration to work together on a bunch of
Speaker 1: different issues identifying and achieving further efficiencies. Focus on reviewing
Speaker 1: the mismanagement of our self funded retirement assets and the
Speaker 1: actuarial miscalculations of our retirement obligations. They said. The effort
Speaker 1: to work look into the mismanagement of our workers' compensation program,
Speaker 1: which resulted in four hundred million in excessive annual charges
Speaker 1: compared to practices in the private industry. And for those
Speaker 1: who would argue against this, again, it's much like trying
Speaker 1: to save Social Security from itself. There are ways to
Speaker 1: fix some of the problems, and they're merely endeavoring to
Speaker 1: identify them. If Congress must ultimately approve them, then Congress
Speaker 1: should approve them. You want mail delivery to continue, You
Speaker 1: want to quit paying billions and billions of dollars every
Speaker 1: single year in losses to keep it afloat under the
Speaker 1: current practices. When some of these current practices are outdated, outmoded,
Speaker 1: and just downright inefficient, why would you be against this
Speaker 1: type of thing happening? Maybe chime in and after top
Speaker 1: of the hour news got a little bit of time
Speaker 1: before we get to the former vice mayor of the
Speaker 1: City of Cincinnati, Christopher Smith had been coming up at
Speaker 1: seven to twenty. I'll be right back.
Speaker 18: From a full rundown and the biggest ten lines just
Speaker 18: minutes away at the top of the hour. I'm giving
Speaker 18: you a fact now the Americans should know fifty five rs.
Speaker 1: The talk station.
Speaker 5: This report is SPONSORBLE.
Speaker 1: Seven oh six. Look about KRCD coalk station. Try to
Speaker 1: have a happy Monday, but a bit of an emotional
Speaker 1: struggle over the weekend and continuing into a Monday. So
Speaker 1: no idea why I'm in a state of funk, but
Speaker 1: I'll least admit that I am anyhow. Christopher Smith and
Speaker 1: puts a smile on my face. We'll be joining the
Speaker 1: program in about fifteen minutes seven to twenty for the
Speaker 1: former vice mayor of the City of Cincinnati and the
Speaker 1: always interesting and enlightening Smith event. And we're going to
Speaker 1: faast forward to eight forty. We have an empower use someone.
Speaker 1: It should be really interesting. I was reading up on
Speaker 1: the notes on this our blue light environment is degrading
Speaker 1: our health. Apparently, the concept of us being normally exposed
Speaker 1: to sort of red and infrared light and now in
Speaker 1: the twentieth century with LED lights which apparently had more
Speaker 1: of a blue hue, it's impacting our health. And Scott Zimmerman,
Speaker 1: founder of a company called Silas and corporate maker of
Speaker 1: nir A Lighting, got more than thirty five years of
Speaker 1: experience in the field of lighting displays. He's going to
Speaker 1: be doing a seminar on this empower You seminar taking
Speaker 1: place March twenty fifth. Empower Youueamerica dot org. And thanks
Speaker 1: as always the Dan Reagnold for the empower you concept.
Speaker 1: We're getting some polling information I wanted to dive on
Speaker 1: into because it is. It's enlightening. Thanks to Westside Jim
Speaker 1: Keefer who called earlier today to talk about the mayor
Speaker 1: oal race. He sent me an article from Sharon Coolidge.
Speaker 1: It's from the Cincinni Inquirer, headline twenty seven seeking Cincinnati
Speaker 1: Council seats so big Field. Twenty seven people have picked
Speaker 1: up petitions at the Hamilt County Board of Elections, which
Speaker 1: is the first step to run. Youve got to get
Speaker 1: five hundred signatures in order to fulfill the qualifications. Eight
Speaker 1: current Democrat council members. Former councilwoman Lakita Cole apparently going
Speaker 1: to be running as an independent former state representative than
Speaker 1: Democrat Dale Mallory, brother of yes Mark Mallory. We have
Speaker 1: a first transgender candidate, someone named Saul Cercy, an undisclosed
Speaker 1: unnamed Republican, a former mayoral candidate and former Cincinnati Public
Speaker 1: School board member as well. Is Morowski run in Joe,
Speaker 1: No idea, anywall, just an interesting It's going to be
Speaker 1: a pack field if all these folks actually get the
Speaker 1: number of signatures required to run in the race. Anyway.
Speaker 1: A couple of interesting polling articles that were out in
Speaker 1: poll results taken one Atlantis Intel poll, This is shocking
Speaker 1: many Democrats, showing voters aged eighteen to twenty nine showing
Speaker 1: fifty two point seven percent support for President Donald Trump.
Speaker 1: Young men twenty three sent more likely to support Trump
Speaker 1: than young women. And there's quite a few polls out
Speaker 1: lately showing that the most notably college educated women are
Speaker 1: really really really really very very very left and some
Speaker 1: unhinged on the whole matter. Saw another article about the
Speaker 1: state of marriage many women just don't want to get
Speaker 1: married anymore, and that's sad. If you're in that category,
Speaker 1: ask yourself why marriage is wonderful. It can be great.
Speaker 1: It's stabilizing, and for those weekends when you're feeling in
Speaker 1: a bad mood, you've got a great partner there to
Speaker 1: provide you with moral support there for you in the
Speaker 1: good times and the bad times. You can enjoy both together.
Speaker 1: It's certainly a financial benefit to being married. You aren't
Speaker 1: out in the world in this pack of nutcases out
Speaker 1: there trying to find someone with whom to have a relationship,
Speaker 1: and maybe you just choose to spend your time alone,
Speaker 1: which sounds really really depressing. Anyway. Over to Quinnipiac University's
Speaker 1: annual first quarter congressional polling shows that for the first
Speaker 1: time in the poll's history, congressional Democrats are now underwater
Speaker 1: with in their own voters in terms of approval rating.
Speaker 1: Only forty percent of Democrats approve of the job performance
Speaker 1: of congressional Democrats compared to forty nine percent who disapprove.
Speaker 1: What is described by Quinnipiac as a dramatic change from
Speaker 1: this time last year, where seventy five percent of Democrats
Speaker 1: approved of their party compared to just twenty one percent
Speaker 1: of disapproved, so a huge shift. Democrat discontent apparently not
Speaker 1: the center around a desire to pull the party to
Speaker 1: the left or right. The Democrats simply can't seem to
Speaker 1: agree on which direction the party should move. This accorded
Speaker 1: a recent Gallup poll that found forty five percent of
Speaker 1: the Democrats what did the party become more moderate? With
Speaker 1: twenty nine percent feeling it should become more liberal and
Speaker 1: twenty two percent saying it should stay the same. I'm
Speaker 1: not sure what the same is given that the Democrat
Speaker 1: Party is made up of some moderate Democrats in an
Speaker 1: out loud, loudest squeaky whis of the party, being the
Speaker 1: Bernie Sanders and aocs of the party, and they're the
Speaker 1: ones that shifted the party way over to the left. Biden,
Speaker 1: of course, was asleep on the job the whole time.
Speaker 1: He didn't have anything to say about it, and just
Speaker 1: sort of held up in his basement without pushing the
Speaker 1: party in any particular direction and conceding given that he wasn't.
Speaker 1: I suppose even signing executive orders are directing the partying
Speaker 1: or ceding control of the party to whoever was his
Speaker 1: puppet master, which seems to be pretty clearly the far
Speaker 1: left wing of the party. They're the ones that are
Speaker 1: going after Chucky Schumer for keeping the government open when
Speaker 1: it used to be their mantra to keep the government
Speaker 1: open all the time. Number suggests the anger at least
Speaker 1: partly fueled by the Democrats based dissatisfaction with congressional leadership
Speaker 1: and its relatively conciliatory approach to Trump this time around,
Speaker 1: and their inability to stop him. That would be I
Speaker 1: guess capitulation on the continuing resolution. But what would that
Speaker 1: have left them with. There's never any real follow up
Speaker 1: on that. Okay, you're anger with Chucky Schumer for agreeing
Speaker 1: to keep the government open again, a position that was
Speaker 1: widely held and argued and advocated for by Democrats in
Speaker 1: the past when it looked like the government was going
Speaker 1: to shut down. Oh my god, the government's going to
Speaker 1: shut down. We're all going to die. So now the
Speaker 1: far left wing the party is upset that the government
Speaker 1: stayed open. But if you had left the keys of
Speaker 1: the government in control of Donald Trump, right, he could
Speaker 1: have been the one deciding what is necessary in terms
Speaker 1: of government services remaining in effect, well, he might have
Speaker 1: kept open portions of the government that wouldn't have set
Speaker 1: real well with you. And recent polls from CNN and
Speaker 1: Data for Progress. Two separate polls found supermajorities of Democrats
Speaker 1: calling for the party's congressional leadership to do more to
Speaker 1: oppose the president. Now that sounds again like this Trump
Speaker 1: derangement syndrome. The left has done nothing but oppose Donald Trump.
Speaker 1: Of course, during his first term, even while he was
Speaker 1: an elected president, regularly citing Donald Trump as the reason
Speaker 1: for bad things happening, and of course, now that he's
Speaker 1: been re elected president, in the face of this constant,
Speaker 1: constant name calling, Nazi, sexist, racist, homophote, Oh my god,
Speaker 1: you know, I just it was just a never ending
Speaker 1: drumbeat of just name calling against Donald Trump, which didn't
Speaker 1: seem to have a very good reaction in terms of
Speaker 1: how the voters ended up voting in the presidential election
Speaker 1: last November. It didn't work as a practice just outright
Speaker 1: saying no to literally everything Donald Trump does. Is that
Speaker 1: a strategy? Okay, say no to Trump, but what is
Speaker 1: your alternative? Ignoring the problems that have been discovered, like,
Speaker 1: for example, the work that Doge has done, ignoring the
Speaker 1: eminent train wreck that's coming faster and faster with Social Security,
Speaker 1: ignoring the thes of thousands, if not hundreds of thousands
Speaker 1: of people who are dead on the Social Security roles.
Speaker 1: Why would any party be against cleaning up those voter rolls, unless,
Speaker 1: of course, like Chicago, if I mentioned in a million times,
Speaker 1: you know Chicago, everybody knows that the politicians are corrupt,
Speaker 1: but because they're all Democrats up there, it's their corruption,
Speaker 1: so they don't mind it. I don't know that that's a
Speaker 1: platform for success with the American people. I think we're
Speaker 1: more and more aware of what is going on. We're
Speaker 1: aware of the fraud, wasted abuse. We have the Internet now,
Speaker 1: we don't have to rely on CNN to provide us
Speaker 1: with accurate information, and quite often they didn't. They don't
Speaker 1: have to report on this type of fraud, waste, and abuse,
Speaker 1: and they didn't. You have alternative forms of media now,
Speaker 1: you have access to well transparency, most notably under the
Speaker 1: Trump administration, most notably through Department of Governmental Efficiency. Elon
Speaker 1: Musk is now a Nazi and people are blowing up
Speaker 1: his cars and shooting them and destroying dealerships because he's
Speaker 1: shedding sunlight of disinfectant on what has been going on
Speaker 1: with your hard earned tax dollars. And again, this is
Speaker 1: your money. You'll worked for it, they took it out
Speaker 1: of your paycheck and you finally find out what it's
Speaker 1: being spent on, and you're probably, you know, in the
Speaker 1: right category if you're staring in disbelief that are you
Speaker 1: kidding me? I worked for them to spend the money
Speaker 1: on that. Of course, it's going to resonate with American people,
Speaker 1: and I think young people are have caught onto the
Speaker 1: reality that this is pretty much a house of cards
Speaker 1: that we've been working with for a long time. So
Speaker 1: you know, I would assert that the Democrats are going
Speaker 1: to have to come up with some strategy more than
Speaker 1: just resist Trump. I thought, anyway, we'll see what a
Speaker 1: vice mayor former vice mayor of the city, since Saint
Speaker 1: Christopher Smithman has to say, not sure what is on
Speaker 1: his mind, but I always find it interesting his commentary
Speaker 1: always insightful and often entertaining. So Christopher will be up next.
Speaker 1: And first though, I get to mention, and I say
Speaker 1: get to because I'm honored to be able to refer
Speaker 1: you to my friends at Bud Herbert Motors. You know,
Speaker 1: I had such a terrible box store experience, and thank you,
Speaker 1: thank you to Jim Keefer, my friend for Saint Brian
Speaker 1: just called bout Herbert Motors I did. I was treated
Speaker 1: wonderfully and you will be too. This is a Herbert
Speaker 1: family member you'll be working with when you get in
Speaker 1: touch with them. They're proud of the more than seventy
Speaker 1: five years they've been in business. They're proud of their
Speaker 1: family tradition. They're proud of the products that they sell
Speaker 1: because they only sell the world class brands like John Deere,
Speaker 1: x Mart and Steel and Haunted Power Equipment. They're proud
Speaker 1: that they will deliver that product to your door and
Speaker 1: service whatever it is they're delivering to you. They take
Speaker 1: care of it all. And they are so knowledgeable about
Speaker 1: what they sell or you know, you can't say that
Speaker 1: with a box store employee. Not only are they not
Speaker 1: selling the best brands, they don't know as nearly as
Speaker 1: much as the Herbert family does, and they're not going
Speaker 1: to know how to steer you in the right direction
Speaker 1: as they did with me. The last Pushmar I'll ever
Speaker 1: have to buy, said the Herbert family. I love when
Speaker 1: I heard that. That's great. That's the quality I bought
Speaker 1: and you will too. Five one three five four one
Speaker 1: thirty two ninety one five one three five four one
Speaker 1: thirty two ninety one. Find more online and get in
Speaker 1: touch with them that way as well. Bud Herbertmotors dot com.
Speaker 3: This is fifty five KRC, an iHeartRadio station thinking about.
Speaker 1: Buying your friend. Channel nine with the podcast says We've
Speaker 1: got plenty of sun today, but windy conditions gus up
Speaker 1: to forty miles per hour. Fifty six will be the high.
Speaker 1: We've got clouds every night, a little light rain in
Speaker 1: a low forty two. Light showers will stick around, especially
Speaker 1: before two pm. Tomorrow with clouds all day and a high.
Speaker 1: Have fifty three clouds every night, little light rain possible
Speaker 1: forty five below and just clouds on Wednesday. Party body anyway,
Speaker 1: high fifty three. It's thirty nine degrees right now. Let's
Speaker 1: get an update on traffic check from.
Speaker 4: The UCLP Traffic Center for Nancial Doctors Day.
Speaker 14: We on are the UC Health physicians who are leading
Speaker 14: breakthroughs from better Tomorrow's learn more at you see how
Speaker 14: dot com spend seventy five getting better between Ezer Charles
Speaker 14: and the Brands fence. The earlier accident on the bridge clear.
Speaker 14: All lanes are open. Still working to clear an accident
Speaker 14: at seven on the left shoulder. So I found two
Speaker 14: seventy five now slows between the Lawrence Program to the
Speaker 14: Carrol Cropper Bridge.
Speaker 4: Chuck kingram on fifty five krs the talk.
Speaker 1: Station seven twenty one on a Monday. I always look
Speaker 1: forward to this time because you get to hear from
Speaker 1: the former life mayor of the City of Cincinnati, Christopher Smithman,
Speaker 1: and the smither event. Welcome back, Christopher Smithvan God bless you,
Speaker 1: sir for being on the program.
Speaker 6: Oh God bless you.
Speaker 15: Brian Thomas and I've been listening today. We've got a
Speaker 15: lot going on. Every week I say that to you,
Speaker 15: and it's so true.
Speaker 13: Yeah, no, from week to week.
Speaker 15: You know, last week I touched on some things that
Speaker 15: actually happened. But where I want to start off is
Speaker 15: that famous quote from Einstein that says insanity is doing
Speaker 15: the same thing over and over and expecting different results.
Speaker 15: In the context of President Trump signing an executive order
Speaker 15: shutting down the Department of Education. Now, look, we have
Speaker 15: major cities across the United States of America where the
Speaker 15: public school systems are in serious trouble, where you have
Speaker 15: kids like Cincinnati, approximately thirty seven thousand kids, seventy percent
Speaker 15: of them, I'm guessing is an estimate, are African American,
Speaker 15: and you have so many schools around us that are failing.
Speaker 15: And that is true across the United States of America,
Speaker 15: meaning our American children. And it doesn't matter whether they're
Speaker 15: black or white, are Indian, are Italian, they are American children.
Speaker 15: The best way out of poverty into a middle class
Speaker 15: is getting a great education. So it's a great place
Speaker 15: to start. If the federal government is saying, listen, the
Speaker 15: Department of Education is not getting it done. They're not
Speaker 15: getting it done. Einstein's quote here applied, and sanity is
Speaker 15: doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results.
Speaker 15: For Thomas, we must change how our children are educated,
Speaker 15: empowering our parents to make choices for their families what
Speaker 15: is in the best interest for them and their child.
Speaker 15: And every school board member who's listening here, if you're
Speaker 15: not getting it done, move out of the way. Teachers,
Speaker 15: if you're not getting it done, move out of the way.
Speaker 15: We have to do well here because it's only the
Speaker 15: future of America. Our children must be able to do math,
Speaker 15: English and reading history. They've got to understand where they
Speaker 15: are and why they live in this country, and be
Speaker 15: able to count and read when they're fifteen and twenty
Speaker 15: years old. This is a major problem. I am glad
Speaker 15: the President is honing in on it, and anybody who's
Speaker 15: a teacher or a union person, if you don't have
Speaker 15: an answer or a solution, please move out of the way.
Speaker 15: Brian Thomas. Our children deserve to get a good education.
Speaker 15: I am a product of public education. So anybody listening
Speaker 15: to this conversation says, oh, Smitherman went to private schools. No,
Speaker 15: I am a product of a public education. Things have
Speaker 15: changed so dramatically since I graduated from high school, and
Speaker 15: most people listening to me who went to a public
Speaker 15: a public school, they would say the same Brian Thomas.
Speaker 1: Well, I went to public schools my whole life. University
Speaker 1: of Cincinnati, no Ivy League school, that one for two degrees.
Speaker 1: It all worked out just fine for me. But I
Speaker 1: think the reason I was able to succeed is because
Speaker 1: I was taught a classic education phonics, you know, traditional
Speaker 1: education in mathematics. It worked. It was a proven success story,
Speaker 1: and they went and they changed all that. Now they
Speaker 1: focused so much time on things that have nothing to
Speaker 1: do with reading and writing and more to do with
Speaker 1: indoctrinating our students. Let's get away from that and get
Speaker 1: back to some core classical education because it has proven
Speaker 1: the right recipe for success, the key to all education.
Speaker 1: Christal's reading. You have to you have to read to
Speaker 1: learn anything.
Speaker 15: Absolutely, And the discipline teachers who are listening to this segment,
Speaker 15: I love teachers. My mom is a retired teacher. My wife,
Speaker 15: my late wife, was a Cincinnati public teacher. Let me
Speaker 15: tell you. She would come home and talk about discipline
Speaker 15: issues in her classroom. I can't teach because the kids
Speaker 15: are so disruptive, Christopher. This is what she would say
Speaker 15: to me. I've got kids in my class who are
Speaker 15: just talking, running around, throwing books, disruptive, hitting each other,
Speaker 15: and I can't get the administration to hold these kids accountable.
Speaker 15: I can lend them to the principal's office a hundred times,
Speaker 15: but they keep coming back to my classroom. Meaning we're
Speaker 15: going to have to make sure that students, when they're
Speaker 15: in the school understand the teachers. The administrators. There are
Speaker 15: the Boston and they need boards of education that will
Speaker 15: back them up. This is a major problem for any
Speaker 15: teacher that is teaching in a public school system, discipline
Speaker 15: issues with the kids. That's because what's happening at home
Speaker 15: is now pouring out into the school. But the bottom
Speaker 15: line of your brothers, we're not going to continue to
Speaker 15: do this saying thing. And I appreciate the executive order
Speaker 15: from the President because what it says to me, we're
Speaker 15: gonna do something different, We're going to try something new,
Speaker 15: and I think we need it and our children deserve it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's for sure. Let's pause when Christopher back for
Speaker 1: more of the Smith event for this morning, seven twenty seven,

Speaker 4: See the talk station.
Speaker 1: Seven thirty one at fifty five cars de talk station
Speaker 1: A very happy Monday too, and join our conversation with
Speaker 1: Christopher smythm and observations about the education system. And you
Speaker 1: go back to your late wife and God rest her
Speaker 1: soul and having deal having to deal with disciplinary problems
Speaker 1: in school. And I was thinking about that and I
Speaker 1: cannot recall a single instance of something like that happening
Speaker 1: back when I was in school, Christopher again, I went
Speaker 1: to you know, public schools my whole life. But I
Speaker 1: know what would have happened to me had I engaged
Speaker 1: in that type of behavior. Not only would I been
Speaker 1: met with disciplinary action at school, I'd have been met
Speaker 1: with disciplinary actions when I got home. My father wouldn't
Speaker 1: have abided anything like that, nor my mom.
Speaker 15: You know, it's clearly a major problem what's happening at home.
Speaker 15: And I had the same household. There's no way my
Speaker 15: father or mother my again, my mother was a school teacher,
Speaker 15: my father was a scientist, but there was no way
Speaker 15: that they would ever side with me ever against the teacher.
Speaker 15: Matter of fact, they would say, I don't even care.
Speaker 15: Maybe the teacher is wrong, you're wrong, You're always wrong.
Speaker 15: If a teacher is calling my house, doctor Smithland was
Speaker 15: going to take care of business.
Speaker 13: Yep.
Speaker 15: And that's why the sixth of us have the sense
Speaker 15: that we have. We appreciate my father and my mother
Speaker 15: so much, their long marriage, the love that they have
Speaker 15: for each other, but most importantly, the love that we
Speaker 15: now fully understanding half of us like, there is no
Speaker 15: way we could walk in and this wasn't even a
Speaker 15: thing when I was in school, But there was no
Speaker 15: way we could walk in with our pants hanging down
Speaker 15: off our butts. That's just not going to happen, you
Speaker 15: know what I mean. Or we're going to be disrespectful
Speaker 15: to my mother or my grandmother or tell them that
Speaker 15: I'm not gonna do something my wife was sharing with
Speaker 15: me is listen, Christopher. The values of our country are
Speaker 15: really dropping dramatically. What I'm seeing in these classrooms is
Speaker 15: a result of a breakdown in the family, where parents
Speaker 15: right are losing control of their kids. And we have
Speaker 15: school boards across the United States of America, and we've
Speaker 15: talked about this, Brian Thomas, who are continuing to castrate families,
Speaker 15: castrate parents by telling them, I'm not going to tell
Speaker 15: you what's going on with your kids. Your kid can
Speaker 15: have a sex change and I'm not going to tell
Speaker 15: you that they're going to have a sex change, or
Speaker 15: my kid is dying, or he's depressed, or he's thinking
Speaker 15: about committing suicide. I'm not going to tell you about
Speaker 15: those kinds of things. We must have school systems that
Speaker 15: empower parents, empower teachers, empower administrators to get to control
Speaker 15: of these schools, like the movie Lean on Me. If
Speaker 15: we don't do this, our country is going to fail
Speaker 15: because other countries are surpassing us in that and in science,
Speaker 15: and in reading and in English. We have people that
Speaker 15: are coming here from other countries who have mastered the
Speaker 15: English language better know the history of our country better
Speaker 15: as they're scorn in as citizens than American citizens that
Speaker 15: are born here. That's a problem, and so we've got
Speaker 15: to turn back the clock. I want to see the
Speaker 15: I want to see the anthem, the Pledge of Legiance
Speaker 15: back in the schools. I want to have schools talking
Speaker 15: about God and faith. I want all of it because
Speaker 15: it's what made me who I am today. Brian Thomas, well,
Speaker 15: so I appreciate it.
Speaker 2: No.
Speaker 15: I couldn't get away with any of that stuff with money.
Speaker 1: No, not a chance. And I'm not sure if it's
Speaker 1: so much. Parents are losing control of their children, and
Speaker 1: they are to the extent schools aren't communicating directly with
Speaker 1: parents about these very important issues you mentioned, but more
Speaker 1: so relinquishing control, allowing their kids, you know, have as
Speaker 1: much access to any kind of social media they want,
Speaker 1: which is a terrible influence on them. When you think
Speaker 1: of all the messages that come across on social media,
Speaker 1: parents are not real time monitoring that, and yet they
Speaker 1: provide that with access to the entire world of information,
Speaker 1: including pornography, dangerous political messages, anti religious messages. I mean,
Speaker 1: the list just is endless. But letting them have access
Speaker 1: to that, Oh, it's okay, Johnny's parked in the corner.
Speaker 1: I know he's safe from predators outside. He's there on
Speaker 1: the couch, But what's he doing? I mean, are you
Speaker 1: are you? Are you staying connected with the access and
Speaker 1: the information that child is mind is being polluted with?
Speaker 1: Or are you just letting sit idly by and thinking
Speaker 1: it's okay while you go around your business, or sit
Speaker 1: and binge on Netflix or whatever. I think it's more
Speaker 1: parents relinquishing control or quite simply just not giving a
Speaker 1: wit about what's happening to their children.
Speaker 15: First, I agree with you, and I will tell you,
Speaker 15: in hopefully thirty seconds, this story about my late wife, Pam,
Speaker 15: who was a very strong disciplinarian in hospice. In hospice
Speaker 15: care to your listening audience, my son, my youngest son,
Speaker 15: came into the bedroom and said, Mom and dad, I
Speaker 15: want to live a mediocre life. My wife cried a
Speaker 15: little bit and then got herself together and said, call
Speaker 15: a recruiter. I want a recruiter in here as soon
Speaker 15: as possible. And a recruiter came and began to talk
Speaker 15: to my son, and my wife told him to her
Speaker 15: right to his face, you're not going to use my
Speaker 15: death as an excuse to live a mediocre life. You're
Speaker 15: going in the military. Guess what. She died in January.
Speaker 15: He graduated in May from a Cincinnati public school. In August,
Speaker 15: he was off to the military. Four years. He's back,
Speaker 15: he's back in Cincinnati, He's not leading a mediocre life,
Speaker 15: and now he wants to be a neurosurgeon. He started
Speaker 15: taking classes over at the University of Cincinnati, and he's
Speaker 15: doing it on the back of being in in the guard.
Speaker 15: My point to you is so many of our kids,
Speaker 15: when given choices, I hear your guest, vocational education. Every
Speaker 15: kid isn't going to college. Going into the military change
Speaker 15: my son's life, the direction of his life. Any parent
Speaker 15: out here, I tell you, I was scared as out
Speaker 15: of my mind when my baby son was saying he
Speaker 15: was going off in that van to do the military
Speaker 15: and basic training. But that process saves his life. And
Speaker 15: so anybody out there who has a kid, if they're
Speaker 15: listening to us and they're having problems he's seventeen or
Speaker 15: she's seventeen years old, looked at the military as a
Speaker 15: possible option of vocation as a possible option for your child,
Speaker 15: because college education and debt is not always the best
Speaker 15: option for.
Speaker 1: Every time, no doubt about it. We'll bring Christopher back
Speaker 1: for a few more closing words this morning for the
Speaker 1: Smith event at seven thirty seven, Right now forty five
Speaker 1: casit de talk station, and I got a great person
Speaker 1: to talk to about mortgages, anything related to mortgage you
Speaker 1: want to deal with Suzette Low's camp with Cross Country Mortgage.
Speaker 1: She knows everything there is to know about mortgages and
Speaker 1: all the related things that go along with it. She
Speaker 1: can get you through the process very quickly, painlessly find
Speaker 1: financing for that house you got your eye on. Maybe
Speaker 1: you're a military veteran. You'll get one hundred percent of
Speaker 1: your home value with the loan and no monthly mortgage insurance.
Speaker 1: I love that program for American veterans. They also have
Speaker 1: the Cross Country Mortgage line of duty benefit protecting those
Speaker 1: that protect the US or protect us rather design to
Speaker 1: provide financial protection for families of first responders. It's a
Speaker 1: one time benefit covering your outstanding mortgage balance all the
Speaker 1: way up to five hundred and twenty five thousand dollars.
Speaker 1: Should you fall in the line of duty, you can
Speaker 1: get all the details from Suzette and find out if
Speaker 1: you qualify for that one license. In all fifty states
Speaker 1: and Puerto Rico, she can help, so feel free to
Speaker 1: give her a call. She'll get right back with you.
Speaker 1: The number to reach her five one three three one

Speaker 1: Brian Thomas from Christopher Smithvan I'm doing that thing we
Speaker 1: call the Smith ev Smither event every Monday, beginning at
Speaker 1: seven twenty. Further thoughts on your mind today, Christopher.
Speaker 15: Oh Yes, let me first say, brother, let me give
Speaker 15: an honorable beachhit to George Foreman who passed away. Yeah,
Speaker 15: seventy six, you know, Hall of Famer, gold medalist, Olympic champion,
Speaker 15: two time heavyweight champion, seventy six wins, five loss at
Speaker 15: eighty eight knockouts, and worked approximately three hundred million dollars
Speaker 15: and twelve children. I just thought he was a classy guy,
Speaker 15: you know, when he spoke. You know, he was that
Speaker 15: guy that represented boxing from when I would watch boxing,
Speaker 15: when boxing was boxing, and I just I just had
Speaker 15: a I admired him as a five. And people will say, well,
Speaker 15: why did he call all of his boys George? I think,
Speaker 15: and you know, he never said this. I think he
Speaker 15: understood that his name was very powerful and he didn't
Speaker 15: want to slight any of his boys, so he called
Speaker 15: them all George. Everybody has the same name, everybody has
Speaker 15: the same kind of kind of right. You can walk
Speaker 15: in and say, my name is George Foreman. Now I
Speaker 15: could be wrong about that. I don't know, but I
Speaker 15: think that he named all his sons that that way
Speaker 15: because of that. But I just started he was a
Speaker 15: class actor. The George Foreman skillet that he had was
Speaker 15: a was a big success.
Speaker 2: You know.
Speaker 15: When he had that final knockout Mike, my dad was
Speaker 15: was jumping around my kitchen throwing his hands. I said, Dad,
Speaker 15: George Forman is going to get some old dude killed today.
Speaker 15: Because you all think anybody can knock anybody out. But
Speaker 15: in that last month, that guy did not understand that
Speaker 15: George Foreman still, you know, had had hands of steel
Speaker 15: and he hit him right on the chin and he
Speaker 15: was out. I mean, so, anyway, my salute to George Forema,
Speaker 15: a seventy six years old, great life.
Speaker 1: Yeah, hell of a boxer. He Managine getting punched by
Speaker 1: that guy. I'd like to be hit by a truck.
Speaker 1: I mean, just the truck, No, sir, No, sir.
Speaker 15: He was six four, I don't know how wet, his
Speaker 15: weight was, every bit of.
Speaker 9: A lot.
Speaker 15: I'm not messing with him at all, even at seventy six.
Speaker 15: I wouldn't be messing with the George Foreman. But what
Speaker 15: I will say to you, what I will say with
Speaker 15: you in the end here is that Elon Musk deserves
Speaker 15: my gratitude and all Americans gratitude of saving those two
Speaker 15: astronauts last week. It was a remarkable thing, to see
Speaker 15: the landing, to see the dolphins. I salute him his
Speaker 15: company and all of the technology and all of the
Speaker 15: men and women at NASA and the scientists, the mathematicians.
Speaker 15: It was an incredible feat. He makes it look easy,
Speaker 15: his team makes it look and this is some of
Speaker 15: the greatest technology and coming from one company in the
Speaker 15: entire world. I don't understand why MSNBC didn't show it.
Speaker 15: It blows me away that CNN barely spoke about it.
Speaker 15: But that's the world we're living in that we can't
Speaker 15: even tell the truth Brian Thomas about what is happening
Speaker 15: good around us. You can disagree with somebody on some issue,
Speaker 15: but still show where America is showing greatness. That was
Speaker 15: just a magnificent feat. And by the way, just on
Speaker 15: a political note to all those who are listening, former
Speaker 15: President Biden left them there for nine months right period.
Speaker 15: So the reality of people saying they're angry, maybe it's
Speaker 15: an embarrassing thing of why MSNBC wouldn't show it. But
Speaker 15: if that was my wife, if that was my auntie,
Speaker 15: if that was my grandmother, I would want somebody to
Speaker 15: save her from the space station. And it was eli
Speaker 15: NASA and the United States of America and the President
Speaker 15: because he said go get him and bring him home.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and Boeing failed in its effort to do it.
Speaker 1: So you know, SpaceX outdid Boeing, which I think speaks
Speaker 1: volumes in and of itself. And you know, somewhere out there, Christopher,
Speaker 1: and I hate to say this out loud because it
Speaker 1: is so depressing and disgusting to think about it. I'm
Speaker 1: sure there was some of these real vile, anti Elon
Speaker 1: Musk people out there that were probably hoping that that
Speaker 1: mission to rescue them failed.
Speaker 15: You know, it's so sad to say out loud, but
Speaker 15: you're you're absolutely right when you see the former candidate
Speaker 15: for vice president saying that he wants his stock to
Speaker 15: go down, yeah, and and champion that. And the reality
Speaker 15: of it is this. Look, I very rarely talk about
Speaker 15: what I do for a living as a financial planner,
Speaker 15: but look, markets go up and down.
Speaker 6: This is just a part of it.
Speaker 15: There's there's nothing unusual going on right now with what
Speaker 15: we would call correction seen percent. It's what markets do
Speaker 15: is the efficienc the efficiency of the market. So this
Speaker 15: notion that you're like saying, this is where the stock
Speaker 15: kids is insane on his part. You never were always
Speaker 15: rooting I was rooting for Biden, rooting for Bush, rooting
Speaker 15: for Obama. I'm rooting for the United States of America.
Speaker 15: I'm always rooting for the United States of America, not
Speaker 15: against it. And I just suggest that you're listening, audience,
Speaker 15: and I know they are. Let's keep rooting for America.
Speaker 15: We've got Russia and Ukraine, We've got Israel and Gaza, right,
Speaker 15: We've got parifs, We've got country that has been ripping
Speaker 15: us off. We've got to give this president the room
Speaker 15: and the ability to win. That's what we have to
Speaker 15: do right now. This notion that we're going to use
Speaker 15: the judicial system to try to lock up him and
Speaker 15: keep him locked up for the next four years is
Speaker 15: completely outrageous and insane. A circuit federal court judge does
Speaker 15: not have the power to hamper the executive arm of
Speaker 15: the United States of America. And if I were the
Speaker 15: president of the United States, I would not have turned
Speaker 15: those planes around that had gang members in them and
Speaker 15: bring them back to the United States of America. Is
Speaker 15: this just crazy?
Speaker 1: Many people will say that he is or he's just
Speaker 1: a you know, political operative, but you know he does
Speaker 1: have judicial powers and that's why we have courts of
Speaker 1: appeals and hopefully at some juncture the Supreme Court will
Speaker 1: have a say on it and say things in the
Speaker 1: right direction that will benefit our country. Again, going back
Speaker 1: to your fundamental point, Christopher Smithman, God bless you, sir.
Speaker 1: I love when you spend time with my listeners, and right.
Speaker 15: Thank you, and please people follow me at vote Smitherman
Speaker 15: on X.
Speaker 1: Thank you sir, we'll talk next week. Have a great week,

Speaker 1: Coming up on seven fifty three fifty five krs the
Speaker 1: talk station. The phone lines are open. Got a minute
Speaker 1: here if someone wants to call on maybe comment, perhaps
Speaker 1: on something. Christopher said five one, three, seven, four nine
Speaker 1: fifty five hundred, eight hundred and eighty two to three
Speaker 1: talk pound five fifty on AT and T phones. And
Speaker 1: when I think about the education system, this whole idea
Speaker 1: that you can advance a child who do has not
Speaker 1: mastered the grade level, and I don't understand how anyone
Speaker 1: could argue that it's providing a service for that child.
Speaker 1: They just want to move on because they're a headachere,
Speaker 1: a hassle. That means you've given up on that child,
Speaker 1: and you've condemned that child to a life of poverty
Speaker 1: or perhaps even crime. And a friend of mine, they
Speaker 1: just sent me some statistics on this education problem, and
Speaker 1: a lot of it has to do with, you know,
Speaker 1: not having a dad at home or not having a
Speaker 1: nuclear family that provides support. That whole prison to pipeline
Speaker 1: thing or pipeline to prison thing, A lot of people
Speaker 1: point to the education system. Yeah, if you don't have
Speaker 1: an education, the likelihood of your committing crimes because you
Speaker 1: can't get a job because you don't know how to
Speaker 1: read or perform basic fundamental mathematics skills. Of course, that's
Speaker 1: going to be a problem. But you know, a little Johnny,
Speaker 1: you will feel guilty or bad because he's been held
Speaker 1: back and his peers have moved forward. Really, we'll moving
Speaker 1: Johnny up to the next grade when Johnny has not
Speaker 1: mastered the skills of the grade that he is in,
Speaker 1: is only going to put him further behind. Because well,
Speaker 1: of course, the problem is an obvious one. Every year
Speaker 1: the curriculum gets more challenging and harder. It's supposed to
Speaker 1: you create this building block, this foundation of knowledge. Every
Speaker 1: year more bricks and blocks in that foundation, and then
Speaker 1: you build further upon it. If your foundation is shaky
Speaker 1: or in many cases and not just the statistics are
Speaker 1: mind blowing. You've got school districts where not a single
Speaker 1: child can read at grade level and get in the
Speaker 1: system of education that we live now, this whole idea
Speaker 1: that we don't hold people back anymore, we just move
Speaker 1: them on grade elevation when they haven't actually earned the grade.
Speaker 1: How can anyone argue that that's beneficial to the child.
Speaker 1: And there's no one size fits all solution to this.
Speaker 1: I recognize that it's a simplistic thing to say, well,
Speaker 1: we just need to but that one component of the
Speaker 1: education system should be eradicated and eliminated completely. You must
Speaker 1: demonstrate your knowledge of this grade's material before you can
Speaker 1: move on, because well, we're not going to graduate people
Speaker 1: from high school anymore. They can't read. That's a thing,
Speaker 1: doesn't it sound like something from a you know, a
Speaker 1: dystopian Hollywood movie that we would live in a society
Speaker 1: that would do that. I mean, forget about it being
Speaker 1: a benefit for the American people, our economy, are our
Speaker 1: future as a country to have well educated young people.
Speaker 1: But just look at the individual alone. You've left that
Speaker 1: person in peril and likely someone who is going to
Speaker 1: be perpetually hooked up to the umbilical court of government
Speaker 1: of some social program because they cannot care for themselves.
Speaker 1: It's just it's heartbreaking. It is literally heartbreaking. Feeling like
Speaker 1: I'm getting emotional just thinking about it. Although we've been
Speaker 1: over this kind of thing so many times over the years.
Speaker 1: Looks like I got several callers online, and Jim and
Speaker 1: Ken and Alan, you guys don't mind holding I'd be
Speaker 1: more than pleased and actually very happy to take your calls,

Speaker 1: power Youamerica dot Org. Let's go over to the phones.
Speaker 1: I appreciate Alan hanging on for the break. Alan, thanks
Speaker 1: for calling this morning, and welcome to the Morning Show.
Speaker 19: Hey Brian, I always like listening to you. I just
Speaker 19: I don't know if anybody's ever talked about this phenomenon
Speaker 19: that's starting to happen, but kids not tying their shoes,
Speaker 19: and it's like the adults around them don't have the
Speaker 19: fortitude or the desire to make them tight their shoes.
Speaker 19: When I grew up, if you had your two shoes untied,
Speaker 19: you couldn't move without twenty people telling you, hey, hire shoe,
Speaker 19: young man.
Speaker 15: Right now.
Speaker 19: And I had a soccer game yesterday. You thirty girls,
Speaker 19: and this girl's running around with their shoes untide, which
Speaker 19: is unsafe. So there's a lull in play, and I said,
Speaker 19: young lady, TI your shoes, and so she goes out
Speaker 19: tries to tie him for about thirty seconds and then
Speaker 19: she gives up and she runs off the joint play
Speaker 19: and it's like, I'm not going to stop the game
Speaker 19: for this, So the coach sub ends up stumping. Around
Speaker 19: four or five minutes later, she still has the tighter shoes.
Speaker 19: I watched her go over the bitch. I watched the
Speaker 19: coach talk to her, I watch her get a drink,
Speaker 19: I watch her sit down, and I watch her for
Speaker 19: thirty seconds not tying her shoes. So I stopped the game.
Speaker 19: I go Coach number seventy is the tire shoes, and
Speaker 19: the coach actually tight her shoes.
Speaker 15: And it's just I.
Speaker 19: Don't understand why we don't work at teaching kids things
Speaker 19: that might be difficult for them, and we just.
Speaker 6: Let them go.
Speaker 1: Well, I have this vague recollection of you know, my
Speaker 1: mom and dad teaching me how to tie my shoes.
Speaker 1: You know, the rabbit runs around the tree and goes
Speaker 1: through the hole. Whatever. But I mean, there is a
Speaker 1: methodology for teaching your children how to tie shoes. It
Speaker 1: isn't that difficult once you learn how to do it.
Speaker 1: And that may be just an illustration of a failure
Speaker 1: of parenting, But what parent would have let their kids
Speaker 1: run around with the shoes untied? As you point out,
Speaker 1: it's dangerous. Your shoe can easily fall off. How can
Speaker 1: you run without your shoes being.
Speaker 19: Tied or you could trip over the laces.
Speaker 1: Yeah, well there's that too.
Speaker 19: Why we had you fifteen boys and they've told me
Speaker 19: this is the way I wear my shoes during a
Speaker 19: soccer game, and it's like, no, that's not going to
Speaker 19: cut it.
Speaker 1: Keep up the great work, coach.
Speaker 2: Wow.
Speaker 1: I draw a parallel with that with the baggy pants thing,
Speaker 1: where the pants are hanging down below the underwear around
Speaker 1: the thighs, and you know a lot of time that
Speaker 1: that look is associated with criminal behavior, at least I've
Speaker 1: read that a bunch of times. Well, if you're going
Speaker 1: to commit a crime and your pants aren't tied up
Speaker 1: around your waist, I think you're going to have a
Speaker 1: difficult time running away if law enforcement enters into the picture.
Speaker 1: So you know, I just view that it's sort of
Speaker 1: a Darwinian reality when you think about it. That's just
Speaker 1: my take. So yeah, appreciate that. Alan seven eight hundred
Speaker 1: eight two three dog pound five fifty on your AT
Speaker 1: and T fund. I think it's Dan Enager, the brilliant
Speaker 1: auto review guy at the Wall Street Journal. He writes
Speaker 1: an outstanding column. I think it's his last name. Don't
Speaker 1: don't don't quote me on that. And I should remember
Speaker 1: his name because I read his column every week. But
Speaker 1: he's talking about the timing on his decision, and he
Speaker 1: said he rarely ever mentions any kind of car he buys,
Speaker 1: and he gets so many cars to review that I
Speaker 1: don't get. I get the impression he really doesn't have
Speaker 1: to buy one, but he recently acquired a used Tesla,
Speaker 1: and he went on to explain all of his reasons
Speaker 1: to do it in spite of the fact that this
Speaker 1: seems to be the evil choice of cars to buy
Speaker 1: now since the left wing has gone all crazy against
Speaker 1: Elon Musk. And I'm no fan of evs, and that's
Speaker 1: my right to be, and I know how wonderful they are,
Speaker 1: and I would never criticize the amazing reality of the
Speaker 1: electric vehicles, from the acceleration, the immediate torque, the technology
Speaker 1: that exists in them. Some call it big brother ish
Speaker 1: and I think I could do that, but I know
Speaker 1: people who own them and absolutely love them. They think
Speaker 1: it's the greatest car ever made.
Speaker 2: You know.
Speaker 1: And then along comes Elon Musk and his efforts to
Speaker 1: get out, you know, the fraud, waste and abuse in
Speaker 1: government immediately makes him the devil or a Nazi. If
Speaker 1: I think that's the most absurd claim you could ever make,
Speaker 1: because I do understand the definition of the Nazis and
Speaker 1: the national Socialist Party, and I do understand the reality
Speaker 1: of Adolf Hitler and his extermination of an entire race
Speaker 1: of people, or at least his efforts to do that.
Speaker 1: Not something that Elon Musk has ever advocated for, but
Speaker 1: that you can get one of those automobiles. He bought
Speaker 1: a used one twenty twenty two. I think it was
Speaker 1: a Model three, maybe low mileage. There's quite a few
Speaker 1: of them now, of course, more for sale now than before,
Speaker 1: but a tremendous value. I believe he purchased it because
Speaker 1: his daughter's needed is getting your driver's license. But he
Speaker 1: went on and just did this rave review of all
Speaker 1: the reasons why it is such an outstanding automobile. And
Speaker 1: I think about that in the context of all the
Speaker 1: people that went out and bought them because of the reasons.
Speaker 1: He articulated that you have all these choices in the
Speaker 1: world about what you can buy. You chose to get
Speaker 1: an electric vehicle that requires a charger and takes a
Speaker 1: little bit longer to charge up and all that, and
Speaker 1: some of the limitations it comes with, like you know,
Speaker 1: mileage limitations, some convenience inconvenience is associated with it. But
Speaker 1: what it came across I actually had a better perception
Speaker 1: of owning one and how easily they are to be
Speaker 1: acquired and affordable. And so I respect the decision that
Speaker 1: he made and I have no problem against it. I
Speaker 1: just don't like to be told I do not have
Speaker 1: a choice, as I witnessed the insanity going on with
Speaker 1: the left, and they're they're, they're, they're attacking the vehicle
Speaker 1: itself and innocent owners of vehicles who may have bought
Speaker 1: them for all the right reasons. The reason that he
Speaker 1: articulated in the article are enough, but the idea that
Speaker 1: you think you might be saving the planet on some level,
Speaker 1: a lot of virtue signaling going on with Tesla owners.
Speaker 1: Maybe he just bought it because you like the performance.
Speaker 1: The Tesla plaid is just a little rocket ship and
Speaker 1: for someone who likes performance and automobiles zero to sixty
Speaker 1: one point nine seconds, McLaren's can't even do that. But
Speaker 1: there are multitude of reasons to buy them. But why
Speaker 1: are these crazed folks attacking people who made the decision
Speaker 1: many years ago, made the decision to purchase a Tesla vehicle,
Speaker 1: only to go after the innocent purchases of those vehicles
Speaker 1: when they bought them for a multitude of right reasons.
Speaker 1: They didn't buy it because Elon Musk is doing what
Speaker 1: he's doing now. They bought him for the technological genius
Speaker 1: that they are, or because they think they're saving the
Speaker 1: planet that company supports. I think one hundred thousand American
Speaker 1: workers pension systems are invested in Tesla. So if you're
Speaker 1: like Waltz and you're happy the Tesla stock is going
Speaker 1: down very well, be you know, harming your own pension,
Speaker 1: your own four oh one k. It makes no sense whatsoever.
Speaker 1: Do you think you have legitimate criticism against Elon Musk.
Speaker 1: That's fine if you choose not to buy one of
Speaker 1: his products now because of what he's doing with doge okay,
Speaker 1: But to go around and attack, you know, the vehicles
Speaker 1: in automobile dealerships, and to attack people who have no
Speaker 1: connection whatsoever with Elon must they he just happened to
Speaker 1: be the guy that created this wonderful product that would
Speaker 1: convince them that it was a worthy purchase. I can't
Speaker 1: imagine you are doing yourself any favors by way of
Speaker 1: making this as a political statement. It just it doesn't
Speaker 1: make any sense. I just really don't get it, and
Speaker 1: maybe that's one of the reasons the Democrat polling numbers
Speaker 1: are gone down through the toilet. Federal Bureau of Investigation
Speaker 1: even released a public service announcement warning Americans, in their words,
Speaker 1: to exercise vigilance and look out for suspicious activities in
Speaker 1: areas occupied by Tesla dealerships or Tesla related entities, or
Speaker 1: even just Tesla's generally speaking. According to the release the FBI,
Speaker 1: the Federal Bald of Investigation is informing the public of
Speaker 1: recent nationwide incidents targeting Tesla Electric Vehicles, dealerships, storage lots,
Speaker 1: and charging stations. Since January twenty twenty five, incidents targeting
Speaker 1: Tesla evs have occurred at at least nine states. These
Speaker 1: incidents involve arson, gun fire, vandalism, including graffiti expressing grievances
Speaker 1: against those the perpetrators perceived to be racist, fascists, or
Speaker 1: political opponents. Isn't that a rather broad presumption you're making.
Speaker 1: Your neighbor's got a Tesla, maybe it's been parked in
Speaker 1: his or her driveway. Now since the Biden administration, you're
Speaker 1: going to go and attack that one and spray it
Speaker 1: with graffiti. When they had Elon Musk had no connection
Speaker 1: with the federal government or its efforts to pair back
Speaker 1: the size and scope of it. A pre elon must
Speaker 1: indulge decision that they made. They said, these criminal actions
Speaker 1: appear to have been conducted by loan offenders, and all
Speaker 1: known incidents occurred at night well thirty. General pam Bondi
Speaker 1: has labeled the tax domestic terrorism and announced charges against
Speaker 1: several individuals engaging these attacks. Recognize that the Tesla vehicle
Speaker 1: itself has a security feature on it that is going
Speaker 1: to record you. It's called Century Modes, got multiple cameras.
Speaker 1: You will be reported to the owner's app and you
Speaker 1: will be recorded on a separate disc. They will have
Speaker 1: the evidence of the crime occurring. So you're likely to
Speaker 1: get prosecuted. And as I mentioned before, and I know
Speaker 1: Pambondi's mentioned it already, you can be the perpetrators of
Speaker 1: this exercise, the ones who car coordinating it. Maybe one
Speaker 1: of these left wing organizations, unhinged as they may be,
Speaker 1: but if they're coordinating and orchestrating criminal activity, that's plain
Speaker 1: old rico right there, and they may find themselves in
Speaker 1: a crossover recoa action. And I'm sort of sitting here
Speaker 1: with my popcorn out waiting for it to happen anyway.
Speaker 1: The warning listed possible threat activities, violent threats made online,
Speaker 1: referencing specific Tesla properties, inquiring or examining security measures of
Speaker 1: Tesla dealerships for photographs of security related equipment or personnel
Speaker 1: Tesla dealerships, unusual surveillance or interest in Tesla related entities,
Speaker 1: and attempts to gain access to restricted areas or bypassed
Speaker 1: security measures at Tesla related properties. Again, that relates to
Speaker 1: the dealerships, and I guess where they're parked generally speaking,
Speaker 1: but in so far as individual Tesla owners, you too
Speaker 1: are being attacked because I've seen so many reports on it,
Speaker 1: and that is absolutely baffling to me. FBI encourage you
Speaker 1: to call the FBI field office. You can get in
Speaker 1: touch with them if you notice the suspicious activity. It's
Speaker 1: eight hundred call FBI. That's eight hundred call FBI. I'm
Speaker 1: sort of beside myself this morning that I even have
Speaker 1: to bring this up, but it is going on, and
Speaker 1: again I'm baffling by the behavior. Eight seventeen fifty five
Speaker 1: krc DE talk station. Feel free to call. We got
Speaker 1: plenty of time to talk before we learned about blue
Speaker 1: lights and human health from Scott Zimmerman. That'll be at say, eight.
Speaker 5: Forty I'll be right back fifty five krc A.
Speaker 1: Twenty one fifty five carc de talk station. Automobile. Guess
Speaker 1: eric I also think of that movie when the word
Speaker 1: automobile is uttered anyway, moving over to a little op
Speaker 1: ed piece in the journal, what works and what doesn't
Speaker 1: demonstrat demonstrated by the realities of what's going on in
Speaker 1: California versus that in Texas the numbers do not lie.
Speaker 1: Democrats still wake up to the fact that migration from
Speaker 1: blue to red states could become a political problem for
Speaker 1: winning the House represented. It's going to get worse, judging
Speaker 1: by the Department of Labour's latest state jobs reports showing
Speaker 1: California lost jobs in nearly every industry in the year
Speaker 1: before underscore the word before Donald Trump took office. Ure
Speaker 1: of Labor Statistics last week released annual revised job numbers
Speaker 1: for states based on more complete data. California gained a
Speaker 1: net twenty two thousand, four hundred jobs from January twenty
Speaker 1: four to January twenty five. All of its new jobs
Speaker 1: were in government fifty eighty three hundred, healthcare, social assistance,
Speaker 1: and private often higher education one hundred and forty eight thousand,
Speaker 1: two hundred, which rely to a large extent on government spending.
Speaker 1: And if you have an opportunity, please read ALYSSA. Finley's
Speaker 1: op ed madness at Columbia was your tax dollars at work?
Speaker 1: Jeez lo wise, what a colossally screwed up. And this
Speaker 1: is the time that I wish FCC compliance rules were suspended,
Speaker 1: because I'd have some graphic language to use to describe
Speaker 1: what was revealed in that article. But moving back, private
Speaker 1: businesses shed jobs in the year. This is again in California.
Speaker 1: Construction down twenty eight thousand, six hundred, manufacturing down thirty
Speaker 1: three thousand, four hundred, information down eleven thousand, seven hundred,
Speaker 1: finance down twenty one thousand, eight hundred, professional and business
Speaker 1: services down forty nine thousand, leisure and hospitality down twenty
Speaker 1: nine thousand, five hundred, retail down forty three hundred. They
Speaker 1: say some job losses are a result of small businesses
Speaker 1: closing because of high taxes and costs, including sixteen to
Speaker 1: fifteen hour minimum wage and twenty dollars minimum wage for
Speaker 1: fast food restaurants. They say the state's Private Attorney's Generals
Speaker 1: Act let trial lawyers extort small businesses by filing dubious
Speaker 1: lawsuits for alleged labor violations. Most businesses pay off the
Speaker 1: attorneys and settlements because defending against the lawsuits would cost
Speaker 1: even more. And yes, I know a lot about that.
Speaker 1: That's why they settle. Large companies, also relocating workers to
Speaker 1: lower tax and cost states. Texas added one hundred and
Speaker 1: eighty seven thousand, seven hundred jobs over the same period,
Speaker 1: with gains spanning all industries. Construction in nineteen thousand, eight
Speaker 1: hundred up forty two hundred, up in manufacturing two hundred,
Speaker 1: up in information nineteen thousand, up in finance, professional and
Speaker 1: business services up nineteen seven, leisure and hospitality up eleven thousand,
Speaker 1: three hundred, and retail up thirteen thousand, nine hundred. Texas
Speaker 1: added only about one quarter as many jobs in healthcare,
Speaker 1: social assistance, in private education as California. They spent fifty
Speaker 1: billion on health and human services compared with California's two
Speaker 1: hundred and twenty eight billion. Democrats in Sacramento can't blame
Speaker 1: Donald Trump or the wildfires in January for the state's
Speaker 1: part poultry employment growth. Employment declined between January and September
Speaker 1: twenty four, surged in November December, as in the rest
Speaker 1: of the country after Trump's selection, jobs flat between December
Speaker 1: twenty four and this January. One problem for Democrats in
Speaker 1: Sacramento is the progressive tax regime effective top marginal rate
Speaker 1: of fourteen and a half percent on wage income thirteen
Speaker 1: point three on investment income that's made the state budget
Speaker 1: increasingly dependent on a high earners whose incomes are volatile.
Speaker 1: Are you ready The top one percent of earners in
Speaker 1: California contribute about half of the state's income tax revenue.
Speaker 1: How long can those people stay there? Or will they
Speaker 1: stay there? California's economy also becoming more dependent on government spending,
Speaker 1: including federal funds totaling one hundred and sixty two billion
Speaker 1: dollars last year. The stock market correction and slow down
Speaker 1: in federal spending could only open gaping budget deficits that
Speaker 1: might force cuts in government spending, resulting in layoffs in
Speaker 1: the few areas that are still adding growth or jobs. Rather,
Speaker 1: you won't hear about this in any of the California problems.
Speaker 1: On Governor Gavin Newsom's new podcast interviewing Maga men Nor
Speaker 1: from the Progressive Land bassing him for reaching out to
Speaker 1: Donald Trump supporters. A growing problem for Newsom's national ambitions
Speaker 1: and his party is that California epitomizes the left. This
Speaker 1: policies that harm workers and employers. That's why so many
Speaker 1: are leaving for Texas. Thank god we live in this
Speaker 1: amazing country we live in. Each state is free to
Speaker 1: pursue its own objective, is free to pursue its own efforts. Experiment,
Speaker 1: and what works tend to percolate to the top. What doesn't, well,
Speaker 1: look at California. That's why I love the one size
Speaker 1: does not fit all reality of our republic. Some states
Speaker 1: get it right. Some states show you the wrong path.
Speaker 1: The smart choose the right path. Eight twenty six. If
Speaker 1: I have krece detalk station, I can get Fred's call,
Speaker 1: and I also can get local stories coming up. Other

Speaker 1: of course an opportunity to get books as well. Bred's
Speaker 1: on the phone, Frank, thanks for holding over the break there.
Speaker 1: Welcome to the morning show.
Speaker 17: Yes, sir Byron a long time listening, first time caller
Speaker 17: type thing. So, hey, I appreciate anything to do. I
Speaker 17: just want to throw something out there, kind of let
Speaker 17: folks know what's going on in their neighborhood. I guess
Speaker 17: this hands off group of them, the less than learned,
Speaker 17: they're having a couple of rallies in the trash State
Speaker 17: area on April fifth, which they probably doing on April
Speaker 17: the first, but that they're at Washington Park and at
Speaker 17: the Florence Mall. So if folks see these less than
Speaker 17: leunded folks out there, they might just stop buying them
Speaker 17: a bottle of water, shake their hands and maybe try
Speaker 17: to educate a little bit, or just ignore them and
Speaker 17: problem resist. But just letting folks know what's going on
Speaker 17: out there, folks sharing them on social media for.
Speaker 1: My lesson lightened listeners and including me what is this
Speaker 1: group supposedly all about bread.
Speaker 17: Oh, they're they're they're letting folks know that they don't
Speaker 17: consent to Donald Trump stealing their government from.
Speaker 12: Them to give to his billionaire friends.
Speaker 17: Okay, pretty much in a nutshifter, those folks sucks at
Speaker 17: the list and learned digging themselves hands hashtag hands off.
Speaker 1: All right, Well, they might want to take a look
Speaker 1: at the state of the finances in this country and
Speaker 1: the reality realization that we're already paying a trillion dollars
Speaker 1: annually in debt service on what we've already dug ourselves
Speaker 1: into by way of whole, and to continue down this
Speaker 1: path is a quite literally existential threat to the entire
Speaker 1: United States government and literally every program and employment opportunity
Speaker 1: that they currently enjoy. I don't understand the realities of
Speaker 1: what they're arguing. It doesn't make any sense from a
Speaker 1: dollars and cents standpoint, from an economic standpoint, but we
Speaker 1: have got ourselves into a quite literally perilous state. All
Speaker 1: the social welfare programs that they claim that the Trump
Speaker 1: administration is going to eradicate will disappear under the weight
Speaker 1: of the overspending. Someone's got to ferret out fraud, waste
Speaker 1: and abuse and pair back these programs or the whole
Speaker 1: cost of cards is going to collapse. They want to
Speaker 1: continue to advocate for it. They're just revealing their ignorance
Speaker 1: from my perspective.
Speaker 17: But yeah, absolutely logic and reasoning or missing. So I
Speaker 17: just thought to throw that out there. Appreciate your eave
Speaker 17: and put on that. I'll hang up and let you comment,
Speaker 17: and again thanks for keeping the mind for it.
Speaker 1: Thanks fred, I truly appreciate you tuning in and for
Speaker 1: your call this morning. Yeah, it just to me, it
Speaker 1: reveals a level of ignorance. So just obviously not paying
Speaker 1: the attention to the dollars. I don't make these figures up.
Speaker 1: Talked about the social security system this morning. Everybody says
Speaker 1: Ela mosc is trying to take it away from you.
Speaker 1: Look at the numbers. You called it a Ponzi scheme.
Speaker 1: It definitionally it is. I mean there are definitions for things.
Speaker 1: It's like this definition for fascism, the definition for socialism,
Speaker 1: definition for communism, definition for capitalism. There's a definition for
Speaker 1: Ponzi scheme and it fits the definition. The money coming
Speaker 1: in from the new workers is literally going right out
Speaker 1: the door to pay the prior for people who work
Speaker 1: their whole life and the hopes that Social Security is
Speaker 1: going to take care of them in retirement. It's an
Speaker 1: unsustainable plan because they are only a handful of workers
Speaker 1: now for every person drawn so Security and I didn't
Speaker 1: make it up. You know, people always criticize the Congressional
Speaker 1: Budget Office numbers as being some sort of politically biased
Speaker 1: or whatever. I mean. The numbers come from them, as
Speaker 1: well as a multitude of other sorts. Both the sources,
Speaker 1: both left and right, and you'll find the sources on
Speaker 1: both the left and right. The numbers all seem to
Speaker 1: line up, and that we're on eight townwards, that we're
Speaker 1: on a perilous trajectory here. It's it's literally frightening. One
Speaker 1: local story that I thought worth bringing back up. No
Speaker 1: one has been reimbursed for damage they got from running
Speaker 1: over potholes in the city of Cincinnati. You're allowed to
Speaker 1: report a pothole, you can submit a claim for the
Speaker 1: damage your car experience from hitting a pothole. But the
Speaker 1: city confirmed not a single human being has been reimbursed
Speaker 1: for a pothole this year, and they're blaming it on
Speaker 1: state law. One woman had seven hundred and fifty dollars
Speaker 1: damaged under her car her tire got flat. She had
Speaker 1: almost I guess probably almost ran off the road anyway.
Speaker 1: Wx WLWT reporting on this thank you to Rachel Hersheimer
Speaker 1: when she receives an email it's said in response to
Speaker 1: her claim after it was submitted to the City of Cincinnati.
Speaker 1: The City of Cincinnati, by statute, has certain immunities from
Speaker 1: liability for damage of this nature regarding the pothole in
Speaker 1: they sight of the hire. Revised code provision limits claims
Speaker 1: to circumstances where the city is proven to have had
Speaker 1: prior knowledge of the road condition yet failed to act
Speaker 1: within a reasonable amount of time. Both conditions must be met. Therefore,
Speaker 1: most accidents caused by a pothole in the city are
Speaker 1: not likely eligible for reambursement under Ohio law. The search
Speaker 1: of records in the City Service Requests database confirms the
Speaker 1: pothole repairs were completed in this area and within a
Speaker 1: reasonable amount of time when they were first reported. City
Speaker 1: of Cincinnati has not demonstrated negligence in this case. Regrettably,
Speaker 1: we must deny your requests for damage claim reimbursement pursue
Speaker 1: into Ohigh law. No embursement will be made in this case.
Speaker 1: So when WLWT asked if anybody's claims have been paid,
Speaker 1: they got five hundred and sixty four requests for reimbursement.
Speaker 1: So far in twenty twenty five, none have been eligible
Speaker 1: for reimbursement. So we call that what a hollow promise
Speaker 1: from the city. Maybe we'll hear about that in the
Speaker 1: debate between the mayor Old candidates. Tomorrow Night's eight thirty
Speaker 1: six fifty five KR City Talk Station, What's wrong with
Speaker 1: blue light? What's wrong with led lights? The man who
Speaker 1: knows a lot about that, Scott Zimmerman, doing an empower
Speaker 1: You seven, are on that We're going to learn from
Speaker 1: him a little bit about the subject matter coming up
Speaker 1: next should be interesting. I hope you can stick around
Speaker 1: to listen.
Speaker 3: This is fifty five KRC, an iHeartRadio statement.
Speaker 1: Hey, forty to fifty five KRC Detalk station. As always,
Speaker 1: props to Dan Regnold for creating the Empower You seminar series,
Speaker 1: wonderful learning opportunities on a whole variety of topics from
Speaker 1: politics to you know, gardening to lighting. And today I'm
Speaker 1: pleased to welcome to the fifty five KRC Morning show Man.
Speaker 1: It knows all about lighting, Scott Zimmerman. He's the founder
Speaker 1: of a company called Sila Sinc. Maker of ni are
Speaker 1: A lighting, which is my understanding.
Speaker 2: What near.
Speaker 1: What near infrared infrared enhanced lighting, And he'll explain that
Speaker 1: in the moment that he has one of the thirty
Speaker 1: five years of experience in the field of lighting and displays.
Speaker 1: Innovations and inventions have been used commercially in a wide
Speaker 1: range of military commercial products, including night vision displays, liquid
Speaker 1: crystal displays, back gliding designs, and lighting fixtures, and lately
Speaker 1: he's been focused on quantifying the health effects of natural
Speaker 1: sunlight and the concerns with LED type lighting. Scott Zimmerman,
Speaker 1: it's great to have you on the morning show. Your
Speaker 1: Power You seminars taking place tomorrow night beginning at seven pm.
Speaker 1: Listeners know to log in to empower you the letter
Speaker 1: you America dot org and get registered. Welcome to the show, sir.
Speaker 1: It's a pleasure having you on today.
Speaker 13: Thank you very much, well, I appreciate it.
Speaker 1: The one common complaint I hear is the modern headlights.
Speaker 1: Those brilliant almost blue blasting headlights go down. It's like
Speaker 1: the low beams are on, but it looks like you're
Speaker 1: getting hit by like five sets of light bulbs, all
Speaker 1: intense on high beam. That's one area where I at
Speaker 1: least recognize that a lot of people have, at least
Speaker 1: in my world, have complained about. But that's just one
Speaker 1: element of these blue lights.
Speaker 13: Yeah, I mean, I totally agree with you.
Speaker 7: There are the headlights are really annoying and a problem.
Speaker 7: But in general, I don't think people are aware that
Speaker 7: what the government has done with very various DOE debardment
Speaker 7: of energy mandates is eliminate about ninety percent of what
Speaker 7: we get when we walk out and look into up
Speaker 7: there or we're in normal outdoor blue sky type of situation.
Speaker 7: And what we're finding is is I've been lucky enough
Speaker 7: to work with a number of world leaders in certain areas,
Speaker 7: Bob Jeffries neuroscientists, Bob Fosberry astrophysicists, or Robert Swelt, a
Speaker 7: four board certification doctor, and we're fine that what they
Speaker 7: took away, the ninety percent of the solar spectrum that
Speaker 7: they took away from us with LED lighting is actually
Speaker 7: affecting our health and it was actually being used for
Speaker 7: some very important purposes within the body. So it's been
Speaker 7: kind of a very interesting We have probably one of
Speaker 7: the most diverse group of people looking at the problem,
Speaker 7: and it's something that I think we're trying to get
Speaker 7: them to change. What's going on, And like I say,
Speaker 7: it's a lot more than just headlights. It's also just
Speaker 7: what's affecting our kids' ability to learn, our immune system,
Speaker 7: a bunch of other things.
Speaker 1: Really well, I can understand the evolutionary process. Up until
Speaker 1: very very recent in human mankind's development, we relied on firelight,
Speaker 1: and of course with the incandescent bulb. Of my understanding
Speaker 1: is those did burn on a spectrum that provided this
Speaker 1: red and infrared light that we had become used to.
Speaker 1: But you know, enter the global warming phenomenon in these
Speaker 1: compact fluorescent bulbs, which I always absolutely hated. Segue to
Speaker 1: LED bulbs, which until recently, and I want to ask
Speaker 1: you about them, up until recently, they were really harsh.
Speaker 1: You know, the light was intense white light and didn't
Speaker 1: have any color to it. There's no warm glow to it.
Speaker 1: Now with modern LEDs and I'm hoping you don't tell
Speaker 1: me that my can lights which are LED or badroom
Speaker 1: because they're adjustable and you can get a warm glow
Speaker 1: from them. Is that the kind of NIRA technology you're
Speaker 1: talking about that's now being developed or have I got
Speaker 1: that wrong?
Speaker 7: And unfortunately it's not all they've done. The eye has
Speaker 7: a very limited only measures about ur can only detect
Speaker 7: about ten percent of this whole their spectrum and the
Speaker 7: rest of it, it has no idea what's going on.
Speaker 7: And so the lighting industry, you know, one of those green,
Speaker 7: misguided but well intended, green attempts at saving energy.
Speaker 13: They said, well, let's just.
Speaker 7: Take the ninety that nature has been providing for millions
Speaker 7: of years and the body has adapted to and get
Speaker 7: rid of it, and instead we're going to only give
Speaker 7: you the part that terry respond to. Well, that sounds
Speaker 7: like a great thought. Unfortunately, those other wavelengths were actually
Speaker 7: there to actually make it so that you could see safely.
Speaker 13: And so what are you seeing.
Speaker 7: You're seeing explosion in blue blockers, in red light therapy,
Speaker 7: in you know, forest bathing, all these things. The public
Speaker 7: is sensing that there is a problem here, and now
Speaker 7: we're putting some science behind it, and it's showing that, hey,
Speaker 7: you know, those longer wavelengths that we can't see were
Speaker 7: actually there, so that you could safely be in a
Speaker 7: blue sky, or had.
Speaker 13: You know, someone immune improve your immune.
Speaker 7: Response or the ability of the mitochondria to actually generate energy.
Speaker 7: And what's fascinating is that it's this multidisciplined team is
Speaker 7: is now getting a lot of people jumping on the
Speaker 7: bandwagon saying, hey, you know, maybe maybe we may went
Speaker 7: a little too far, and we're actually have a petition
Speaker 7: now and to try and pull back some of the
Speaker 7: mandates that the DOE put in place, especially under the
Speaker 7: Biden administration, to say, you know where they were essentially
Speaker 7: creating requirements that would make for a toxic environment as
Speaker 7: far as all the lighting and you're not going to
Speaker 7: die tomorrow.
Speaker 13: I'm not saying that the point is is good, you know.
Speaker 13: You know, the point is is that, you know, after millions.
Speaker 7: Of years of adaptation to the solar spectrum, the body
Speaker 7: has developed some amazing optic My field is optical engineering.
Speaker 13: So I looked at the optic side of things.
Speaker 7: And you see that the body literally collects and localizes
Speaker 7: some of these longer wavelengths around the fetus during during
Speaker 7: development and or in through the brain structure. You know,
Speaker 7: I keep on saying, you know, think about the old
Speaker 7: days where you had a flash light and you stuck
Speaker 7: it in your mouth and you were telling ghost stories
Speaker 7: and you see everything kind.
Speaker 13: Of glow red and orange.
Speaker 7: Well, the longer wavelengths actually penetrate deep into the body
Speaker 7: and they are stimulating various things that we are only
Speaker 7: now beginning to understand. But it is clearly something that
Speaker 7: is the body expects, and if it doesn't get it,
Speaker 7: then there's going to be an adverse effect. It's kind
Speaker 7: of like Yin Yang.
Speaker 13: You know, you need the visible to see and do.
Speaker 7: Your work and all this other stuff, but the longer
Speaker 7: wavelengths are there to kind of Okay, well that takes
Speaker 7: is as harmful in some ways that we're going to
Speaker 7: use this to kind of offset it. So it's kind
Speaker 7: of like a on a you know, a like I say,
Speaker 7: a Yin Yang type situation.
Speaker 1: Well, since we are literally surrounded by these everywhere we
Speaker 1: go these days, and I've been working under fluorescent lights
Speaker 1: for as long as I've been in a job, I
Speaker 1: presume that those also lack these red and infrared spectrums.
Speaker 13: That's correct, and you.
Speaker 7: Know, and what Glenn's done in particular, he's done a
Speaker 7: lot of studies now where he's showing that. You know,
Speaker 7: the the reintroducing the longer wavelengths haveving a positive effect
Speaker 7: on your eye ability to see color, contrast, or other aspects.
Speaker 7: There's a strong a lot of people are doing red
Speaker 7: light therapy to increase wound healing. Well, those are real
Speaker 7: effects and they do add.
Speaker 1: Up over time.
Speaker 7: And Glenn's done some great work with animal insects and
Speaker 7: things like that to show the twenty five percent increase
Speaker 7: in lifetime associated with those applies and things of that nature.
Speaker 7: But we're just now starting to understand that all these
Speaker 7: different longer wavelengths that you can't see with your eye
Speaker 7: are just as important and in some ways more important.
Speaker 7: And unfortunately, there was a time when you may have
Speaker 7: been in under a fluorescent light during work, but you
Speaker 7: came home to an incandescent and read this story to
Speaker 7: your son or your daughter and that was giving you
Speaker 7: a plent or you had a fire in the fireplace going,
Speaker 7: or things of that nature. So you know, these thermal
Speaker 7: sources are broad band emitters that the myth clear out
Speaker 7: into way out into the longer wavelengths. And as we
Speaker 7: dig deeper, we're seeing more and more cases. Where isn't
Speaker 7: that a coincidence that this is this is localized near
Speaker 7: this particular thing, and then you throw that in and
Speaker 7: so in a lot of ways, what we have is
Speaker 7: while RFK Junior is focused on processed food, we have
Speaker 7: processed sunlight and it is negatively impacting our ability for
Speaker 7: our kids to learn. And there's you know, and proving
Speaker 7: all that will take time and effort, but it's it's
Speaker 7: something that's simple to fix and and it still saves
Speaker 7: some energy.
Speaker 15: You know.
Speaker 7: That's what our products are basically showing. But my main
Speaker 7: focus is not on our products. My main focus we
Speaker 7: tell everybody please just go outside. Don't be stupid outside
Speaker 7: I put it, wear a hat. You know, you're not
Speaker 7: out there to bake yourself. But simply walking the forest
Speaker 7: then enhances the amount of near and for red that
Speaker 7: you're getting into your body. And there's a positive effect well.
Speaker 1: The production of vitamin D because not of us, all
Speaker 1: of us have enough vitamin D in our bodies because
Speaker 1: we send so much time in the house. You know,
Speaker 1: we're at work for eight hours or more and then
Speaker 1: we go home and we sit in front of our laptops.
Speaker 1: And I understanding laptops also have this negative effect in
Speaker 1: terms of the light that they produce.
Speaker 7: Yeah, they are only visible lighting. And you know, you
Speaker 7: think about children. This is the first generation where this
Speaker 7: is going to have a marked effect, and it already
Speaker 7: is having a marked effect, and that you know, it
Speaker 7: used to be you and I we would go out
Speaker 7: and we'd be building the fort or going and doing something.
Speaker 7: Even children's sports nowadays are usually done indoors under artificial
Speaker 7: lighting that contains none of these longer wavelengths. And you know,
Speaker 7: so if we can urge people to safely and you
Speaker 7: know it, you're not You're not going to in the
Speaker 7: afternoon after school. The kids are not going to get
Speaker 7: a bunch of sunburns or things like that in ninety
Speaker 7: nine flaming other places. And you know, if they're working
Speaker 7: under a doing stuff under trees or whatever, that's that's
Speaker 7: just more of the positive because if you if you
Speaker 7: get a chance. Bob Posberry has some great pictures of
Speaker 7: what's going on within the body where he shows how
Speaker 7: the near infrared penetrates all the way through your hand
Speaker 7: into your internal organs, and.
Speaker 13: Then the trees when you're outdoors.
Speaker 7: Are reflecting in their infra red so it's kind of
Speaker 7: like a pair of nature sunglasses where absorbing the visible
Speaker 7: and the UV but reflecting the near infrared into people
Speaker 7: when you're outdoors interacting with nature. And so that's sort
Speaker 7: of and what's really exciting is is that Bob R.
Speaker 7: Roger Swelt is starting to he's a board certified doctor,
Speaker 7: emergency room doctor, pulmonary doctor. He started to take his
Speaker 7: parent patients out and seeing positive results by just simply
Speaker 7: going outside with them.
Speaker 13: Yeah.
Speaker 1: So one takeaway we get today from Scott Zimerman, who's
Speaker 1: doing the seminar tomorrow night beginning at seven pm and
Speaker 1: Power you America Dot or get over there and register

Speaker 1: Happy Monday.
Speaker 20: Happy Monday, Brian, Hey, wanted to build on your commentary
Speaker 20: about what a dumpster fire in California is. Recently, I
Speaker 20: got to thinking about, you know, the Wine administration is
Speaker 20: growing about the amount of economic development that is occurring
Speaker 20: in Ohio and how we're winning bigley using Trump's term.
Speaker 20: So I got to thinking about that and said, well,
Speaker 20: what if we filed with GDP. What if we touch
Speaker 20: the top six states in the United States by GDP
Speaker 20: and divided the GDP by state budgets, and that would
Speaker 20: tell me of what is for every dollar spent on
Speaker 20: state government, what are we getting for our economy? And
Speaker 20: California was ranked number was had the highest GDP at
Speaker 20: like one point four trillion. You divided by their state budget,
Speaker 20: the ratio is about nine. So for every dollar state spending,
Speaker 20: they get nine dollars of products and services. Ohio is six,
Speaker 20: and we are in last place out of like the
Speaker 20: top ten. Florida is at fourteen, and.
Speaker 15: So even as bad.
Speaker 20: As that sounds, what we heard from California, unfortunately, based
Speaker 20: on that ratio, we suck.
