Solid earnings reports, 24 00:01:30.799 --> 00:01:35.680 mask tariff volatility. You know, all the reports are pretty 25 00:01:35.680 --> 00:01:39.560 good economically speaking. Risk of recession is just I've fallen 26 00:01:39.599 --> 00:01:43.000 down completely, so no more concern about that anymore, at 27 00:01:43.079 --> 00:01:44.799 least that's what I've been reading. So we'll see what 28 00:01:44.840 --> 00:01:47.560 Brian James has to say about that, and finally picking 29 00:01:47.640 --> 00:01:50.719 the right financial planner for you.

My wife's 34 00:02:04.280 --> 00:02:06.680 got a medical procedure and need to pick her up 35 00:02:07.079 --> 00:02:09.960 one that involves anesthesia. You're not allowed to drive after that, 36 00:02:10.159 --> 00:02:13.080 so I'm going to take the morning off and take 37 00:02:13.159 --> 00:02:15.719 care of my better half. And better half she of 38 00:02:15.759 --> 00:02:18.280 course is. I love hearing from you. If you want 39 00:02:18.319 --> 00:02:21.080 to steer the direction of the conversation, as I regularly suggest, 40 00:02:21.199 --> 00:02:24.560 please feel free to do it. It's a Monday. My 41 00:02:24.639 --> 00:02:27.560 brain is not firing on all cylinders this morning, so 42 00:02:27.840 --> 00:02:31.759 if you got something you want to talk about, five one, three, seven, 43 00:02:32.000 --> 00:02:34.639 eight hundred and eight to two three talk or come 44 00:02:35.039 --> 00:02:37.360 stream the audio from fifty five cars dot com or 45 00:02:37.400 --> 00:02:39.919 get your iHeartMedia app and listen wherever you're happen to 46 00:02:39.919 --> 00:02:43.960 have your smart device and listen to Jim Grendle. Talk 47 00:02:44.000 --> 00:02:49.120 to him. He's a retired detective from a uh Springfield township. 48 00:02:49.240 --> 00:02:52.520 I wrote a book, Homicide Investigation Interview. We talked about 49 00:02:52.560 --> 00:02:56.680 that one and his upcoming book, Harr Toltzman don Heinrich 50 00:02:56.719 --> 00:03:00.120 Toltzman book I Am Innocent. He did the translation on that. 51 00:03:00.639 --> 00:03:05.199 It's a German guy that was accused and convicted and 52 00:03:05.639 --> 00:03:11.800 executed for murdering Charles Lindbergh junior that will be the 53 00:03:11.879 --> 00:03:18.120 baby of famous airline pilot Charles Lindbergh. Apparently, according to Don, 54 00:03:18.159 --> 00:03:19.960 he convinced me in a very short period of time 55 00:03:20.080 --> 00:03:23.560 the guy was framed. And he also had a really 56 00:03:23.719 --> 00:03:28.360 really really crappy lawyer. Tech Friday with Dave Hatter every Friday, 57 00:03:28.520 --> 00:03:31.479 very important appointment listening is what I call that excellent 58 00:03:31.560 --> 00:03:37.000 segment from Dave Hatter. Let us see here. Don't really 59 00:03:37.039 --> 00:03:42.400 know where I want to start. Well, let's start with California, 60 00:03:44.719 --> 00:03:48.159 highlighted last week because the Trump administration cut off four 61 00:03:48.240 --> 00:03:51.400 billion dollars in federal grants for that stupid high speed 62 00:03:51.400 --> 00:03:53.759 train that goes literally from point A to point B 63 00:03:53.960 --> 00:03:58.879 nowhere to nowhere. California promised the moon of the Stars 64 00:03:58.879 --> 00:04:01.199 with this multi billion dollar project. It just keep getting 65 00:04:01.280 --> 00:04:03.919 more and more expensive. Not a single track has been 66 00:04:04.000 --> 00:04:06.319 laid yet. And this has been going on for what 67 00:04:06.439 --> 00:04:10.280 seems like forever. I mean, the completion date has coming gone, 68 00:04:10.280 --> 00:04:13.599 and they haven't laid a single mile of track. What 69 00:04:13.680 --> 00:04:17.800 the hell is going on? And California has now sued 70 00:04:17.800 --> 00:04:21.800 the Trump administration because of determination of the funding. They're saying, hy, 71 00:04:21.839 --> 00:04:24.839 everything's fine, Everything's all hunky dory. No, well, we've met 72 00:04:24.839 --> 00:04:33.680 all the expectations. Really you have over the Elissa Finley 73 00:04:33.720 --> 00:04:38.000 at the Wall Street Journal. California Gavin Newsom has shown 74 00:04:38.040 --> 00:04:40.319 these political effects are flexible. He's also showing the ability 75 00:04:40.360 --> 00:04:43.360 to turn rotten grapes into wine. So why isn't he 76 00:04:43.560 --> 00:04:48.759 using the excuse that President Trump handed him. Just pull 77 00:04:48.839 --> 00:04:53.439 the plug on the whole bullet trained boondoggle. Trump Transportation 78 00:04:53.519 --> 00:04:57.279 Department rescinded four billion in funds for the project last week, 79 00:04:58.639 --> 00:05:03.120 pointing out the state's host overruns, delays, and funding shortfalls. 80 00:05:03.160 --> 00:05:06.040 Quote the railroad we were promised still does not exist 81 00:05:06.079 --> 00:05:08.560 and never will close quote corn to President Trump and 82 00:05:08.560 --> 00:05:13.160 true social this project severely overpriced, overregulated, and never delivered. 83 00:05:13.879 --> 00:05:20.040 All true statements. Wright's President's right. Mister Newsom surely knows it. 84 00:05:20.040 --> 00:05:25.480 It's current construction rate, the five hundred mile rail line 85 00:05:25.519 --> 00:05:30.199 between San Francisco and Orange County won't be completed. As 86 00:05:30.240 --> 00:05:36.560 she writes in the Governor's Lifetime, the state as the 87 00:05:36.639 --> 00:05:39.600 last month hadn't begun to lay tracks on the first 88 00:05:39.759 --> 00:05:45.399 one hundred and nineteen miles segment between Madera population sixty 89 00:05:45.439 --> 00:05:50.199 eight thousand and Shafter Shafter population twenty one thousand. Remember, 90 00:05:50.199 --> 00:05:53.000 this is supposed to go from two major cities. Instead, 91 00:05:53.040 --> 00:05:57.879 they chose this narrow, really road to nowhere path just 92 00:05:57.959 --> 00:06:03.040 to get something off the ground and his family rights. 93 00:06:03.040 --> 00:06:05.920 The first leg should have been relatively easy, since the 94 00:06:05.959 --> 00:06:10.360 state's rural central Valley is lightly developed and populated, no 95 00:06:10.480 --> 00:06:13.360 need to raise strip malls and housing developments. A private 96 00:06:13.399 --> 00:06:15.800 company built a two hundred and thirty five mile high 97 00:06:15.839 --> 00:06:19.600 speed train from Orlando to Miami in eleven years for 98 00:06:19.600 --> 00:06:24.279 about six billion dollars. Yet it's taken California more than 99 00:06:24.519 --> 00:06:31.199 a decade to merely bulldozed permitting barriers and clear lawsuits. 100 00:06:32.040 --> 00:06:37.000 Think about that. If all goes according to newsmance plans, 101 00:06:37.040 --> 00:06:41.639 the first leg might be done, and she jokingly says 102 00:06:41.680 --> 00:06:44.720 by the end of his second presidential term in twenty 103 00:06:44.800 --> 00:06:49.759 thirty six, might state last week, sue to restore the 104 00:06:49.800 --> 00:06:51.959 federal funds as I mentioned a moment ago, which could 105 00:06:52.040 --> 00:06:56.040 mean the years of litigation and more delays. According to 106 00:06:56.439 --> 00:07:02.079 Gavin Newsom, Trump wants a hand China the future at 107 00:07:02.120 --> 00:07:04.720 abandoned the Central Valley. We won't let him. And see 108 00:07:04.759 --> 00:07:07.279 I pointed out that statement last week. What the hell 109 00:07:07.319 --> 00:07:11.480 does that mean? How does this stupid leg of track 110 00:07:11.600 --> 00:07:14.360 which goes from point A to point B nowhere to nowhere, 111 00:07:14.480 --> 00:07:21.399 California have any connection whatsoever to China? Now the list 112 00:07:21.439 --> 00:07:24.120 of family rights under the Chinese economic model, here we go. 113 00:07:25.319 --> 00:07:32.680 The government spurs unproductive growth by subsidizing wasteful investment, whether 114 00:07:32.720 --> 00:07:35.399 it be in real estate, electric vehicles, or public works. 115 00:07:36.399 --> 00:07:39.800 China has borrowed some one trillion dollars to build nearly 116 00:07:39.920 --> 00:07:43.600 thirty thousand miles of high speed rail lines, many of 117 00:07:43.600 --> 00:07:49.240 which connect lightly populated towns and carry a few passengers. 118 00:07:50.199 --> 00:07:56.040 That's the future of nuisance bullet train and nowhere companies, companies, 119 00:07:57.000 --> 00:08:01.360 private companies. Here, I am being repetitive for the purpose 120 00:08:01.439 --> 00:08:08.360 of emphasis, routinely cancel and write off bad investments. Why 121 00:08:08.439 --> 00:08:12.519 want mister Newsman his Democratic legislature because they fear voters 122 00:08:12.519 --> 00:08:16.279 will realize they were conned. In two thousand and eight, 123 00:08:16.279 --> 00:08:19.560 Democrats sold the train to voters with fanciful promises, the 124 00:08:19.600 --> 00:08:23.839 same sort they make about free universal healthcare. How's that 125 00:08:23.959 --> 00:08:29.360 working at Parenthetically, your Obamacare premium is going through the roof. 126 00:08:30.800 --> 00:08:32.639 Just bracing you for that one. They cut off the 127 00:08:32.679 --> 00:08:35.320 tax credits. It's now capped. The sixty four thousand dollars 128 00:08:35.399 --> 00:08:37.799 you make sixty four thousand and one dollars, you don't 129 00:08:37.799 --> 00:08:41.080 get a tax credit anymore under Obamacare plan. That's why 130 00:08:41.120 --> 00:08:43.960 people are going with private doctor. My friend John will 131 00:08:43.960 --> 00:08:47.039 Wan to cover Since you about that anyway, separate story, 132 00:08:47.159 --> 00:08:50.840 completely separate cul de sac. I just went down there anyway. 133 00:08:50.919 --> 00:08:53.159 Democrats claim the train would cost a mere thirty a 134 00:08:53.240 --> 00:08:58.600 mere thirty three billion, thirty three billion and be completed 135 00:08:58.639 --> 00:09:06.559 by year is it it's twenty twenty five? Right, would 136 00:09:06.600 --> 00:09:10.799 be completed by twenty twenty. That was a promise in 137 00:09:10.840 --> 00:09:15.559 two thousand and eight, the five hundred mile train trip 138 00:09:15.600 --> 00:09:19.120 from San Francisco to Anaheim would supposedly take only two 139 00:09:19.120 --> 00:09:23.759 and a half hours and costs less than flying. Democrats 140 00:09:23.960 --> 00:09:26.759 also assured voters the train wouldn't need to be subsidized 141 00:09:26.759 --> 00:09:31.000 because it would draw masses of riders BAH and that 142 00:09:31.080 --> 00:09:34.200 new trillion dollar stadium will bring in so much money 143 00:09:34.200 --> 00:09:38.200 that it'll pay for itself. I interject the state high 144 00:09:38.200 --> 00:09:41.639 speed rail authority at the time projected projected here. Let 145 00:09:41.639 --> 00:09:44.440 me pull a figure out of my sphincter, sixty five 146 00:09:44.519 --> 00:09:47.240 and a half million annual riders by twenty thirty, about 147 00:09:47.240 --> 00:09:51.120 five times as many passengers who take Amtrak trains in 148 00:09:51.159 --> 00:09:55.120 the more densely and heavily populated Northeast Corridor. Remember this 149 00:09:55.200 --> 00:09:57.799 is not a heavily populated corridor that they're focusing on 150 00:09:57.840 --> 00:10:04.279 in the Central Valley. Despite such deceptions, lies, Democrats could 151 00:10:04.279 --> 00:10:07.559 have extricated themselves from their big dig had they focused 152 00:10:07.639 --> 00:10:12.519 early train investments on electrifying commuter rail in the Bay 153 00:10:12.559 --> 00:10:15.440 Area in Los Angeles, as many legislators wanted. But the 154 00:10:15.480 --> 00:10:18.879 Obama administration required the state to build the first leg 155 00:10:19.000 --> 00:10:23.360 in the Central Valley as a condition for three and 156 00:10:23.360 --> 00:10:28.879 a half billion dollars in grants. Why the answer to 157 00:10:28.879 --> 00:10:32.399 the question, according to Lyssa, to help. Representative Jim Costa, 158 00:10:32.399 --> 00:10:35.879 a longtime champion of the bullet train, blue Dog Democrat, 159 00:10:35.919 --> 00:10:37.879 faced a tough race in twenty ten owing to his 160 00:10:38.120 --> 00:10:40.960 unpopular vote for Obamacare, but he was able to ride 161 00:10:41.000 --> 00:10:46.279 the subsidy train to victory. Federal dollars, state bonds, and 162 00:10:46.519 --> 00:10:50.159 cap and trade revenue have since kept the project chugging along. 163 00:10:50.240 --> 00:10:52.960 There's that cap and trade magically out of nowhere. Whol 164 00:10:53.039 --> 00:10:56.879 Cloth wasn't there one day and it's there the next. 165 00:10:57.639 --> 00:11:01.120 But the rail Authority is at least seven billion dollars 166 00:11:01.159 --> 00:11:02.960 short of what it needs to complete the first segment. 167 00:11:03.000 --> 00:11:08.240 It needs more than ninety billion to build all five 168 00:11:08.320 --> 00:11:11.519 hundred miles. Remember, the original cost was supposed to be 169 00:11:11.559 --> 00:11:14.720 thirty three billion dollars. Oh Anna was supposed to be 170 00:11:14.720 --> 00:11:20.559 doubly twenty twenty. Couldn't Democrats have spared some change in 171 00:11:20.600 --> 00:11:24.519 the three hundred and twenty one billion dollar budget they 172 00:11:24.559 --> 00:11:28.679 just passed in California? Yes, but have and pretend that 173 00:11:28.720 --> 00:11:31.759 they take money from their government union friends or repair 174 00:11:31.840 --> 00:11:36.919 back health care for undocumented illegal immigrants estimated cost twelve 175 00:11:36.919 --> 00:11:41.120 billion dollars this year, raising the obvious question if Democrats 176 00:11:41.120 --> 00:11:43.840 in Sacramento won't pay for their vanity project out of 177 00:11:43.879 --> 00:11:47.720 their own coffers, here you go, folks, Why should taxpayers 178 00:11:47.759 --> 00:11:51.240 in Cleveland, or Atlanta, or Cincinnati or any other damn 179 00:11:51.240 --> 00:11:53.039 place in the United States. It has nothing to do 180 00:11:53.080 --> 00:12:01.120 with California. Why are we paying for this fresh office 181 00:12:01.159 --> 00:12:05.799 inauguration in twenty nineteen, Gavin Newsom, governor admitted their quote 182 00:12:05.879 --> 00:12:10.039 simply isn't a path close quote to finish the five 183 00:12:10.080 --> 00:12:13.799 hundred mile train, which would, in his words, cost too 184 00:12:13.960 --> 00:12:19.799 much and take too long. He promised to impose more spending, accountability, 185 00:12:19.799 --> 00:12:22.480 no more blank checks. Yeah, the blank checks have continued 186 00:12:23.080 --> 00:12:25.559 for the bulletrain and everything else in the state. Democrats 187 00:12:25.559 --> 00:12:31.320 spend twenty four billion dollars to combat homelessness. The result 188 00:12:31.799 --> 00:12:36.519 more homelessness state k through twelve. Spending has risen fifty 189 00:12:36.639 --> 00:12:41.840 percent since twenty eighteen, yet student test scores have fallen. 190 00:12:42.759 --> 00:12:46.000 Electric rates in California have surged, yet the power has 191 00:12:46.039 --> 00:12:52.440 become less reliable. California's Bulletrained, whether or not it ever 192 00:12:52.720 --> 00:12:57.080 carries passengers, is a monument to the colossal failures of 193 00:12:57.240 --> 00:13:01.600 modern progressive government, from welfare programs the public schools. Democrats 194 00:13:01.639 --> 00:13:05.639 make illusory promises as they shovel out money without regard 195 00:13:05.679 --> 00:13:09.000 for the result. When will California voters decide they're tired 196 00:13:09.039 --> 00:13:10.480 of getting taken for a ride? 197 00:13:11.159 --> 00:13:14.240 Amen? Amen? 198 00:13:16.240 --> 00:13:19.039 When will the city of Cincinnati voters decide they're tired 199 00:13:19.080 --> 00:13:25.200 of getting taken for a ride? He asked parenthetically. And 200 00:13:25.240 --> 00:13:31.360 I'm a holy unrelated yet in many ways related Stack 201 00:13:31.399 --> 00:13:34.759 of reasons five eighteen fifty five KRC DE Talk Station 202 00:13:34.799 --> 00:13:37.000 five one three seven four nine fifty five hundred, eight 203 00:13:37.080 --> 00:13:39.200 hundred and eighty two to three Talk found five fifty 204 00:13:39.200 --> 00:13:41.039 on eighteen t phones love to hear from me? Feel 205 00:13:41.080 --> 00:13:43.080 free to call otherwise we'll move along, be. 206 00:13:43.120 --> 00:13:45.559 Right back fifty five KRC. 207 00:13:46.200 --> 00:13:46.759 Did you know. 208 00:13:49.279 --> 00:13:55.679 It's five twenty one on a Monday, Monday, Monday, Monday Monday? 209 00:13:56.759 --> 00:13:58.559 Not if it's twelve on it? Because I don't really 210 00:13:58.559 --> 00:14:00.879 ever talk about celebrities or anything. There's people pulling their 211 00:14:00.879 --> 00:14:04.039 hair out over Stephen Colbert's late show closing down. They're 212 00:14:04.039 --> 00:14:06.279 just shutting the show down. He's gone, the whole show's 213 00:14:06.279 --> 00:14:11.279 shut down. I guess there's multiple reasons for it. I 214 00:14:11.320 --> 00:14:15.240 first gravitated towards the polarization of the of the late 215 00:14:15.320 --> 00:14:17.759 night shows. They used to be funny. David Letterman kind 216 00:14:17.759 --> 00:14:20.960 of steered clear of politics for the most part. That 217 00:14:21.000 --> 00:14:25.039 show became wildly popular college students. I think really made 218 00:14:25.120 --> 00:14:29.200 Dave Letterman who he is or was rather, but apparently 219 00:14:29.200 --> 00:14:31.879 at least acorded the report's Late Show that with Stephen 220 00:14:31.919 --> 00:14:37.679 Colbert losing forty million dollars a year, they say at 221 00:14:37.720 --> 00:14:41.000 least since the twenty twenty one season, when ad revenue plummeted. 222 00:14:41.320 --> 00:14:45.480 Why would ad revenue plummet? You know, do you think 223 00:14:45.480 --> 00:14:48.000 there's any connection between this and Air America? Remember the 224 00:14:48.200 --> 00:14:51.200 radio network that was supposed to be broadcasting left wing 225 00:14:51.240 --> 00:14:54.320 commentary but just couldn't get off the ground because there 226 00:14:54.360 --> 00:14:58.120 were no advertisers to support it. You gotta make money, 227 00:14:59.279 --> 00:15:03.159 that's the point of it. So maybe it was a 228 00:15:03.159 --> 00:15:06.039 little off putting for people. They quit tuning in because 229 00:15:06.080 --> 00:15:10.000 Stephen Colbert was such a left wing loon. You're going 230 00:15:10.039 --> 00:15:12.679 to alienate a sizable chunk of the population when you 231 00:15:12.759 --> 00:15:16.720 just dwell over and over and over and linger on politics, right, 232 00:15:16.759 --> 00:15:22.200 I mean, it's kind of the reality of it. But 233 00:15:22.320 --> 00:15:25.559 also you have to kind of acknowledge that fewer people 234 00:15:25.639 --> 00:15:27.879 are actually watching TV. I saw an article the other 235 00:15:27.960 --> 00:15:31.200 day YouTube. In fact, most people are watching YouTube far 236 00:15:31.240 --> 00:15:35.000 more than they watch regular television, So people's appetites have changed. 237 00:15:35.039 --> 00:15:38.080 You have on demand, watch whatever you want, binge watch programs, 238 00:15:38.080 --> 00:15:39.919 watch as little or as much as you want, pause, 239 00:15:40.360 --> 00:15:42.519 go to the bathroom, come back and hit play. You 240 00:15:42.639 --> 00:15:46.279 never miss anything. A bunch of different dynamics of play here. 241 00:15:46.320 --> 00:15:49.519 But people are going crazy over this Colbert thing. It 242 00:15:49.600 --> 00:15:51.759 just doesn't shock me a bit. And this is a 243 00:15:51.799 --> 00:15:55.840 weird one, pivoting over to nothing related whatsoever and jumping 244 00:15:55.840 --> 00:16:00.000 to immediate conclusions. I don't understand this. Tennessee Titans are 245 00:16:00.039 --> 00:16:05.799 building a stadium, constructing it. It's underway, right. They halted 246 00:16:05.840 --> 00:16:14.559 construction why a noose was found on the site. In 247 00:16:14.600 --> 00:16:18.360 a statement from the Tennessee Builders Association, they say they 248 00:16:18.399 --> 00:16:22.080 suspended work after discovering what they described as a racist 249 00:16:22.159 --> 00:16:27.360 and hateful symbol corner of the Builders Association. We are requiring 250 00:16:27.399 --> 00:16:32.360 additional anti bias training for every person on site, and 251 00:16:32.480 --> 00:16:36.279 work will resume only after a site wide stand down 252 00:16:36.480 --> 00:16:43.519 focused on inclusion and respect. Nashville Police are where of 253 00:16:43.519 --> 00:16:49.320 the incident they're investigating. The Builders Association offered a reward 254 00:16:49.360 --> 00:16:52.559 for information leading to the identification of those involved. We 255 00:16:52.639 --> 00:16:56.120 are outraged and deeply saddened by this act. We were 256 00:16:56.120 --> 00:16:58.679 working in close partnership with our client, trade partners and 257 00:16:58.759 --> 00:17:01.919 unions to ensure every work understands that racism and ain't 258 00:17:01.960 --> 00:17:05.240 have no place here. Everyone deserves to feel safe, welcome, 259 00:17:05.319 --> 00:17:13.720 and treated with respect and dignity. Hmm, I just stopped 260 00:17:13.759 --> 00:17:18.559 to ask out loud. You find one noose on a 261 00:17:18.799 --> 00:17:22.160 big construction site and that is immediately labeled as an 262 00:17:22.240 --> 00:17:26.200 act of racism and hatred anybody else Remember the various 263 00:17:26.240 --> 00:17:29.160 times that we've been lied to that folks of color 264 00:17:29.319 --> 00:17:32.440 or others interested in maybe stirring the pot of descent 265 00:17:32.640 --> 00:17:36.720 and trying to point out that racism is alive and well, 266 00:17:36.880 --> 00:17:43.920 have faked and planted things. Wasn't there NASCAR incident involving 267 00:17:43.960 --> 00:17:46.440 want something to turn out it actually wasn't even a noose, 268 00:17:46.720 --> 00:17:50.440 no intent there to make a statement political or otherwise. 269 00:17:51.440 --> 00:17:53.960 They shut down this entire project because they found what 270 00:17:53.960 --> 00:17:56.039 they claim is a news no picture of it. I 271 00:17:56.039 --> 00:18:01.039 don't know, but now they're going to rehire everyone to 272 00:18:01.160 --> 00:18:05.960 do race training, anti bias training. 273 00:18:07.920 --> 00:18:08.400 Brought to you. 274 00:18:08.480 --> 00:18:11.599 I'm sure by some non governmental organization paid for by 275 00:18:11.640 --> 00:18:16.119 the taxpayer dollars, maybe Tennessee taxpayer dollars, maybe federal dollars, 276 00:18:16.720 --> 00:18:21.160 because somebody's got to offer the race training program. And 277 00:18:21.400 --> 00:18:27.240 you know, part of me can envision this scenario where 278 00:18:27.240 --> 00:18:31.279 the entities that provide this training might have planted the 279 00:18:31.359 --> 00:18:36.680 news to generate business just saying I'm always jaded.

Just one more violent incident 309 00:19:59.000 --> 00:19:59.960 in the city of Cincinnati. 310 00:20:00.559 --> 00:20:01.000 Kind of a. 311 00:20:00.960 --> 00:20:03.799 Common theme anymore, Joe. You're always updating the local stories 312 00:20:03.799 --> 00:20:06.680 in the morning with an email attached with a story 313 00:20:06.680 --> 00:20:10.759 of a fresh shooting.

I hope you're more awake than 316 00:20:15.599 --> 00:20:16.440 I am this morning. 317 00:20:17.559 --> 00:20:20.519 Yes, yes I am. It sounds like it at least 318 00:20:20.559 --> 00:20:20.960 I don't know. 319 00:20:21.640 --> 00:20:21.759 Uh. 320 00:20:22.160 --> 00:20:23.799 First of all, I want to make sure that nobody 321 00:20:23.839 --> 00:20:26.880 got their feeling hurt over the weekend. Everybody good. That 322 00:20:26.960 --> 00:20:30.119 seems to me what's most important now is that nobody 323 00:20:30.160 --> 00:20:33.200 got their feeling hurt. Of course, you know, you me, Joe, 324 00:20:33.240 --> 00:20:35.759 we're straight white males, so our feelings don't matter. But 325 00:20:36.279 --> 00:20:41.440 you know, I'm really talking to everybody else. It's absolutely ridiculous. 326 00:20:41.519 --> 00:20:45.000 This job site thing in Nashville doesn't surprise me at all. 327 00:20:45.039 --> 00:20:48.240 We have a local contractor, in fact, it's it's a 328 00:20:48.359 --> 00:20:54.839 nationwide contractor that's big around here. That their their safety orientation, 329 00:20:54.960 --> 00:20:57.079 which is which common practice when you go on a 330 00:20:57.160 --> 00:21:00.640 job site, you have to go to the general contractor 331 00:21:00.759 --> 00:21:04.920 and and you go through a safety orientation for them 332 00:21:04.960 --> 00:21:06.960 for the job site, so you get a sticker for 333 00:21:07.039 --> 00:21:09.480 your hard head. You're allowed to be on the site. Now, 334 00:21:10.480 --> 00:21:15.039 just one particular contractor, their safety orientation is more about 335 00:21:15.079 --> 00:21:17.599 making sure we don't hurt anybody else's feelings than it 336 00:21:17.680 --> 00:21:18.400 is about safety. 337 00:21:19.039 --> 00:21:19.160 Uh. 338 00:21:19.480 --> 00:21:23.880 So it's gotten ridiculous, it really is. So doesn't surprise 339 00:21:23.960 --> 00:21:28.160 me at all being in construction, but being in construction. 340 00:21:28.240 --> 00:21:31.880 I could tell anybody who's thinking about being in construction. 341 00:21:32.240 --> 00:21:34.799 If you're worried about your feelings getting hurt, pick a 342 00:21:34.799 --> 00:21:39.799 different job. Your feelings are gonna get hurt multiple times 343 00:21:39.839 --> 00:21:45.240 a day. Yeah, you gotta have some fick skin working 344 00:21:45.279 --> 00:21:46.359 around some rough people. 345 00:21:46.519 --> 00:21:46.880 That's it. 346 00:21:47.039 --> 00:21:49.599 I could both that all day long. You know, it's 347 00:21:49.640 --> 00:21:52.559 like hanging out with the guys, you know, a group 348 00:21:52.599 --> 00:21:55.559 of your closest friends. You are never going to be 349 00:21:55.599 --> 00:21:59.519 thrown into environment that is more, you know, insensitive to 350 00:21:59.559 --> 00:22:02.480 your feeling then hanging out with my best friends in 351 00:22:02.519 --> 00:22:04.880 a group. And I can imagine the construction crew is 352 00:22:04.920 --> 00:22:06.359 exactly like that. 353 00:22:06.960 --> 00:22:09.759 Oh yeah, and some of us we don't even know. 354 00:22:09.839 --> 00:22:12.200 We don't hardly know anything about each other. We don't 355 00:22:12.359 --> 00:22:14.720 may not even like each other, but we like working 356 00:22:14.720 --> 00:22:17.880 together and yucking it up and calling each other names. 357 00:22:18.160 --> 00:22:22.759 It helps the time go. So I wanted to get 358 00:22:22.759 --> 00:22:26.079 to I wanted to get to what Christopher Smitheman talked 359 00:22:26.119 --> 00:22:29.480 about last week. But I do want to give you kudos. 360 00:22:29.519 --> 00:22:31.119 One of the things my wife and I do when 361 00:22:31.119 --> 00:22:34.119 we drive around is we wonder what's going on with 362 00:22:34.160 --> 00:22:37.160 the people in front of us around us driving and 363 00:22:37.200 --> 00:22:39.440 one of the options is that they just come away 364 00:22:39.440 --> 00:22:42.839 from a procedure where they were under anesthesia. So kudos 365 00:22:42.839 --> 00:22:45.759 to you for taking care of your wife tomorrow, because 366 00:22:46.160 --> 00:22:48.400 Lord knows she takes good care of you. 367 00:22:48.559 --> 00:22:49.119 Absolutely. 368 00:22:49.200 --> 00:22:51.519 Yeah, I know I'm going along in this already, so 369 00:22:51.599 --> 00:22:53.799 I'll just get to it.

Fire in the building that 396 00:24:31.039 --> 00:24:35.400 houses the historic Emery Theater being investigated as suspicious of 397 00:24:35.440 --> 00:24:37.640 the sins. A Fire Department cruise dispatched to the six 398 00:24:37.720 --> 00:24:42.480 story multi use building at eleven twelve Walnut in the 399 00:24:42.519 --> 00:24:46.240 morning six forty one, specifically Saturday morning, for the ports 400 00:24:46.240 --> 00:24:49.119 of smoke coming from the ceiling construction workers nearby a 401 00:24:49.160 --> 00:24:52.720 lord of the fire department. Theaters is under renovation and 402 00:24:52.759 --> 00:24:55.400 closed in the building on one side. Several apartments are 403 00:24:55.440 --> 00:24:57.680 on the other corner of the fire department. When cruise 404 00:24:57.680 --> 00:24:59.920 searched the building, they found a fire in the basement 405 00:25:00.079 --> 00:25:04.319 extinguished in about ten minutes. Fire department said an extensive 406 00:25:04.359 --> 00:25:07.200 effort was then put forth to get rid of the smoke. 407 00:25:08.160 --> 00:25:11.559 Specialized unit called Vent twenty one dispatched to ventilate the smoke, 408 00:25:11.599 --> 00:25:14.000 which filled the entire building.

None of the residents were displaced. Estimated twenty 411 00:25:21.200 --> 00:25:23.720 five thousand dollars in damage. Not too bad, I suppose 412 00:25:23.799 --> 00:25:26.440 the grand scheme of thing. Since a fire department does 413 00:25:26.480 --> 00:25:28.000 not know the cause of the fire, they said, the 414 00:25:28.039 --> 00:25:32.160 investigative unit is looking at it as in their words, suspicious. 415 00:25:34.039 --> 00:25:37.240 Speaking with WCPO, president of the CEO of the Children's 416 00:25:37.279 --> 00:25:41.119 Theaters Cincinnati, owning the Emory Theater, says an unknown individual 417 00:25:41.279 --> 00:25:46.680 was responsible for the fire.

Oh really, she claimed 461 00:28:27.279 --> 00:28:29.960 the dog was a service animal. Budget Led allegedly ignored 462 00:28:30.000 --> 00:28:35.440 the officers when she was asked about documentation.

Your dreams have come true. 481 00:29:45.279 --> 00:29:48.559 Okay, let's go to uh We get an article from 482 00:29:48.599 --> 00:29:51.039 the New York Post where in Maryland were an angry 483 00:29:51.200 --> 00:29:57.160 firefighter unleashed gallons of water onto a Maryland baseball field 484 00:29:57.200 --> 00:30:00.640 after a ball struck his pickup. Why are you doing that? 485 00:30:00.839 --> 00:30:03.759 Because the ball struck his pickup? Why are you doing that? 486 00:30:06.720 --> 00:30:10.759 Game came to an abrupt halp. Silver spring to come 487 00:30:10.799 --> 00:30:12.720 with Thunderbolts forced to cancel the game due to the 488 00:30:12.799 --> 00:30:14.960 rain on Thursday night, after the field of Montgomery Blair 489 00:30:15.039 --> 00:30:18.039 High School and Silver Spring flooded when a ball flew 490 00:30:18.079 --> 00:30:20.759 over the fence and landed at the neighborhood fire station. 491 00:30:25.319 --> 00:30:27.880 The iright firefighter blasted the field with a fire hose 492 00:30:27.920 --> 00:30:30.359 after the ball struck his personal car parked at Silver 493 00:30:30.400 --> 00:30:36.119 Spring fire Station. Founder and director of the Thunderbolts baseball team. 494 00:30:36.160 --> 00:30:38.880 There are nine other leagues who play here and were 495 00:30:38.880 --> 00:30:41.960 not the only ones that hit home runs. Personnel from 496 00:30:42.000 --> 00:30:44.160 the fire department had been told constantly by the park 497 00:30:44.200 --> 00:30:46.839 staff that this is a dangerous area to park and 498 00:30:46.920 --> 00:30:48.680 leave your vehicle. I went and had to talk with 499 00:30:48.720 --> 00:30:52.319 the captain and he admitted that he did it. He 500 00:30:52.359 --> 00:30:55.720 said he wanted to get our attention. Players caught on 501 00:30:56.200 --> 00:30:59.480 wild footage watching the torrents of water raining down on 502 00:30:59.519 --> 00:31:06.359 the diamond over a nearby fence. Outfielder Aiden Driscoll, speaking 503 00:31:06.359 --> 00:31:08.240 of the news, when our players heard someone from the 504 00:31:08.240 --> 00:31:11.279 firehouse say, hey, watch out, we don't want you to 505 00:31:11.279 --> 00:31:13.839 get wet. Probably two minutes later, all we saw was 506 00:31:13.839 --> 00:31:16.880 a massive stream of water basically just shooting directly onto 507 00:31:16.920 --> 00:31:19.319 center field. I don't think I'll over in my entire 508 00:31:19.319 --> 00:31:24.720 baseball career, get a fire truck, rain out again, just 509 00:31:24.839 --> 00:31:32.480 walk away. According to the reporting, the collegiate summer team 510 00:31:32.519 --> 00:31:35.440 said gallons of water created a pond in the center 511 00:31:35.480 --> 00:31:39.160 of the field. Montgomery County Fire and Rescue since the 512 00:31:39.240 --> 00:31:41.720 shooting an apology for the bizarre incident, working with the 513 00:31:41.759 --> 00:31:45.559 Maryland National Capitol Park Police to investigate what triggered the soaking. 514 00:31:46.039 --> 00:31:50.400 I think we have the answer to that truck got 515 00:31:50.440 --> 00:31:53.400 hit with a baseball. Get off my lawn kind of 516 00:31:53.400 --> 00:31:56.920 response from the fire department five forty six.

We go to Bangor, Maine. 524 00:32:20.200 --> 00:32:23.480 Man taking into local police custody after the official said 525 00:32:23.519 --> 00:32:27.119 he would not get off a homeowner's roof frazing. 526 00:32:27.720 --> 00:32:29.599 I was waiting for that, uh. 527 00:32:29.799 --> 00:32:32.799 Bangor Police and fire department, as well as crisis negotiators 528 00:32:32.799 --> 00:32:37.160 called to the scene fourteenth street, specifically for those keeping track, 529 00:32:37.200 --> 00:32:40.559 thirty nine year old Stephen Nason apparently climbed onto the 530 00:32:40.640 --> 00:32:43.839 roof and did not come down off the roof. Home 531 00:32:43.839 --> 00:32:45.720 owners speak of local news, and she and her boyfriend 532 00:32:45.759 --> 00:32:48.400 began started hearing something on the roof four o'clock in 533 00:32:48.440 --> 00:32:50.000 the morning. He went to the back deck and saw 534 00:32:50.000 --> 00:32:51.759 a ladder up against the back of the home. They 535 00:32:51.799 --> 00:32:55.680 say that's when they saw Nason on the roof. Never 536 00:32:55.720 --> 00:32:58.279 seen this guy before, so they asked him what he 537 00:32:58.319 --> 00:33:03.079 was doing, and he said he was trying to retrieve 538 00:33:03.680 --> 00:33:11.480 drugs out of the chimney. So they called the police, 539 00:33:12.319 --> 00:33:14.400 and when the bank of fire and police respoted, the 540 00:33:14.400 --> 00:33:16.480 fire department put a basket up near the roof, and 541 00:33:16.519 --> 00:33:18.640 I get a feeling this is one of those, you know, 542 00:33:18.720 --> 00:33:21.079 like armed vehicles. It's got a bucket in it, you know, 543 00:33:21.119 --> 00:33:23.720 like you'd use for maybe a repair of a telephone 544 00:33:23.720 --> 00:33:25.960 line or something, and of course fire department uses them 545 00:33:25.960 --> 00:33:31.440 as well, called a basket. Nason apparently then jumped from 546 00:33:31.519 --> 00:33:37.240 the roof to the basket, grabbed an axe that was 547 00:33:37.279 --> 00:33:40.160 attached to the basket, and then jumped back on the 548 00:33:40.240 --> 00:33:44.960 roof with the axe in hand. Corner Peter Rearden guy 549 00:33:45.000 --> 00:33:46.839 lives at the home. He jumped from our roof. He 550 00:33:46.920 --> 00:33:49.119 jumped from our roof to the basket, retrieved the axe, 551 00:33:49.160 --> 00:33:52.079 and then proceeded to chop holes in our roof. 552 00:33:54.240 --> 00:33:55.960 Do what the hell? 553 00:33:56.160 --> 00:33:58.440 You might ask, Why the hell there's an axe attached 554 00:33:58.440 --> 00:34:01.920 to a basket in a crisis situation. Bangor Fire Chief 555 00:34:01.960 --> 00:34:04.160 Jeffrey Lowe speaking with local news. So they use the 556 00:34:04.160 --> 00:34:08.159 basket and attempt to treat someone in crisis with dignity 557 00:34:08.280 --> 00:34:13.320 and respect. But as the ABI phrases it, the plan 558 00:34:13.400 --> 00:34:19.079 went south. Idiots doing idiot things because they're idiots. 559 00:34:19.199 --> 00:34:19.599 He said. 560 00:34:19.599 --> 00:34:22.559 We wouldn't have expected that. It's nothing we would pre plan, 561 00:34:22.719 --> 00:34:25.320 and we certainly don't train for that. It happened, Yeah, 562 00:34:25.320 --> 00:34:27.800 it was unexpected consequence of trying to do something good 563 00:34:27.840 --> 00:34:31.159 for him. Well, something tells me the protocol will be 564 00:34:31.239 --> 00:34:33.400 from now on, if you're going to use a basket 565 00:34:33.400 --> 00:34:36.400 to help somebody in the crisis situation, take the axe 566 00:34:36.599 --> 00:34:39.320 off of the basket before raising it and elevating it 567 00:34:39.320 --> 00:34:45.639 to the person in crisis. Bangor Police called the incident 568 00:34:45.880 --> 00:34:53.800 abnormal court of Sergeant Jason mccamberley.

When teenager refuse, 586 00:36:02.480 --> 00:36:06.639 Bloodsoe told it a clock out and go home. Employee 587 00:36:06.639 --> 00:36:10.920 then contacted her mother, Thirty five year old Tanika McKenzie. 588 00:36:12.239 --> 00:36:14.880 She brought another daughter, described as a juvenile, to the 589 00:36:14.960 --> 00:36:18.639 McDonald's with her. On the pickup trip, a verbal disturbance 590 00:36:18.719 --> 00:36:22.519 happened in the fast food lobby. Police say mackenzie and 591 00:36:22.519 --> 00:36:25.440 her daughter eventually went behind the counter to the office area. 592 00:36:25.800 --> 00:36:29.920 Mackenzie then allegedly hit Bloodsoe in the face and had 593 00:36:31.920 --> 00:36:34.679 During that fight, please say, Bloodsoe pulled out a gun 594 00:36:34.760 --> 00:36:37.639 and fired a shot, hitting McKenzie in the leg.

Police in a 599 00:36:50.159 --> 00:36:52.880 Facebook post said, it's unfortunate that this incident occurred. Seems 600 00:36:52.880 --> 00:36:55.639 individuals are quick to resort to violence to resolve disputes 601 00:36:55.679 --> 00:36:58.039 without consideration of the impact their actions have on the 602 00:36:58.039 --> 00:37:01.840 community as a whole. This was an unnecessary incident that 603 00:37:01.880 --> 00:37:04.400 could have been mitigated without punches being thrown or a 604 00:37:04.480 --> 00:37:09.559 gun being used. While stating the obvious Bledsoe charge with 605 00:37:09.599 --> 00:37:13.719 one kind of aggravated unlawful use of a weapon, McKenzie, 606 00:37:13.800 --> 00:37:16.119 the employees or with a woman, then charge with one 607 00:37:16.199 --> 00:37:20.199 kind of aggravated battery, one kind of mob action.

Let's see what's going on, well, the Trump 651 00:39:37.880 --> 00:39:42.079 Russia hawksmitted to the top of the news. Director of 652 00:39:42.519 --> 00:39:47.119 National Intelligence Tulsea Gabbert has unleashed a whole bunch of documents. 653 00:39:47.199 --> 00:39:52.000 Rather incriminating, they are to lays out the steps and 654 00:39:52.079 --> 00:39:56.239 the follow up beginning from the Hillary Clinton administer Hillary 655 00:39:56.239 --> 00:39:59.639 Clinton's effort to cover up her email scandal, all the 656 00:39:59.639 --> 00:40:05.519 way through the Bide administration and the preemptive pardons. So 657 00:40:06.000 --> 00:40:09.119 Greg Jared Obt Fox News reporting on this one. Newly 658 00:40:09.360 --> 00:40:13.119 revealed documents show that in twenty sixteen, then President Barack 659 00:40:13.159 --> 00:40:17.119 Obama and his national security team, in her words Tulsa 660 00:40:17.159 --> 00:40:23.159 Gabbert's words, manufactured and politicized phony intelligence in an effort 661 00:40:23.199 --> 00:40:27.119 to frame Donald Trump as a Russian asset, all the 662 00:40:27.159 --> 00:40:30.599 while knowing it was a lie. Tulsa Gabbert released the 663 00:40:30.639 --> 00:40:35.159 declassified documents Friday, describing it as an egregious abuse of 664 00:40:35.199 --> 00:40:41.119 power amounting to treasonous conspiracy. Those are not subtle or 665 00:40:41.159 --> 00:40:47.960 gentle words, folks. Genesis of the plot Hillary Clinton July 666 00:40:48.159 --> 00:40:53.920 twenty six, twenty sixteen, allegedly approved and illicit scheme to 667 00:40:54.360 --> 00:41:01.360 well sully Donald Trump for klude with Russia to rig 668 00:41:01.440 --> 00:41:06.760 the upcoming presidential election. Remember this is the year that 669 00:41:06.800 --> 00:41:11.159 he beat Hillary Clinton. She was a little burned by that. Anyway, 670 00:41:11.199 --> 00:41:15.280 bogus Smeir intended distract from her own problems, the email scandal. 671 00:41:15.920 --> 00:41:18.119 Maybe one of the reasons she didn't get elected president. 672 00:41:18.119 --> 00:41:20.440 I don't care why she didn't get elected president, just 673 00:41:20.599 --> 00:41:27.559 thank god she didn't. Her campaign commissioned and funded the 674 00:41:27.639 --> 00:41:31.599 Steele dossier, which was a whole collection of lies, ultimately 675 00:41:31.599 --> 00:41:33.760 concluded to be a bunch of lies, lies that they 676 00:41:33.800 --> 00:41:37.519 went and carried around for a long time. Folks and 677 00:41:37.559 --> 00:41:41.760 the Obama administration. CIA discovered what Hillary had done the 678 00:41:41.880 --> 00:41:44.960 fake Steele dossier and immediately alerted the Obama White House. 679 00:41:45.400 --> 00:41:47.880 They had two meetings July twenty eighth and August third, 680 00:41:48.000 --> 00:41:54.119 twenty sixteen. Then CIA Director John Brennan briefed the President 681 00:41:54.159 --> 00:41:57.400 and other top officials, including Joe Biden, Vice president, Director 682 00:41:57.400 --> 00:42:02.639 of National Intelligence James Clapper, and FBI Director James Comy. 683 00:42:03.760 --> 00:42:07.719 John Brennan, then CIA Director's handwritten notes from the situation 684 00:42:07.920 --> 00:42:13.199 room show. He recounted Clinton's plan quote to vilify Donald 685 00:42:13.199 --> 00:42:16.599 Trump by stirring up a scandal claiming interference by the 686 00:42:16.679 --> 00:42:21.119 Russian Security Service. Close quote. Nobody came out and said 687 00:42:21.119 --> 00:42:24.719 anything about it. He told him about the plan. It 688 00:42:24.800 --> 00:42:30.400 was all a hoax, and Biden and Clapper and Comy 689 00:42:33.519 --> 00:42:38.000 then launched Crossfire Hurricane, the investigation into Donald Trump, weaponizing 690 00:42:38.039 --> 00:42:41.800 their authority making stuff up in order to persecute Trump 691 00:42:41.880 --> 00:42:44.800 as planned, The fake collusion narrative was. 692 00:42:44.760 --> 00:42:46.119 Then leaked to the media. 693 00:42:48.440 --> 00:42:51.639 Yet almost from the outset, the FBI had debunked the 694 00:42:51.679 --> 00:42:56.199 Steele dossier, later firing its author, Christopher Steele, for lying. 695 00:42:58.440 --> 00:43:02.320 Christopher Steele, former British also a paid source for the 696 00:43:02.480 --> 00:43:07.360 FBI that vital information happened to have been concealed. Comy 697 00:43:07.440 --> 00:43:11.800 sought and obtained surveillance warrants from the PISA Court on 698 00:43:12.079 --> 00:43:18.360 carter Page, Trump associate relying on the Steel dossier in court. 699 00:43:20.039 --> 00:43:24.199 No evidence of wrongdoing ever discovered by carter Page because 700 00:43:24.239 --> 00:43:28.199 none existed, And when the Russian hooks failed to prevent 701 00:43:28.239 --> 00:43:32.280 Trump from winning the election, the same adversaries doubled down 702 00:43:32.800 --> 00:43:35.199 on the Clinton inspired scheme. So we go from the 703 00:43:35.239 --> 00:43:42.800 Obama administration over to the Trump administration, where these allegations continue. 704 00:43:42.840 --> 00:43:44.840 Of course, you remember all the hearings they did on this, 705 00:43:44.960 --> 00:43:48.800 the impeachment hearings. New documents released on Friday by Tulsea 706 00:43:48.840 --> 00:43:52.920 Gabbett showed that December eighth, twenty sixteen, draft of the 707 00:43:52.960 --> 00:43:58.880 President's Daily Briefing, Remember this is still Barack Obama assess 708 00:43:59.000 --> 00:44:05.239 that quote, Rush and criminal actors did not impact recent 709 00:44:05.519 --> 00:44:10.159 US election results by conducting malicious cyber activities against election 710 00:44:10.320 --> 00:44:14.920 infrastructure close quote. So no Russian criminal interference. That's what 711 00:44:15.199 --> 00:44:20.079 she released. That went to the President Barack Obama. But 712 00:44:20.199 --> 00:44:24.320 that conclusion, compiled by top intelligence agencies, did not conform 713 00:44:24.400 --> 00:44:28.679 to the Trump collusion narrative. Wait a second, you guys 714 00:44:28.719 --> 00:44:31.840 can figure out that Russia didn't impact the recent US election. 715 00:44:31.920 --> 00:44:34.199 We've been running around screaming about how the Russians were 716 00:44:34.239 --> 00:44:37.760 working with Trump. Trump was a Russian asset. This doesn't work. 717 00:44:38.119 --> 00:44:43.559 We can't have this. So Comey and others decided to 718 00:44:43.760 --> 00:44:47.239 well put an end to the presidential Daily Briefing circulation 719 00:44:47.480 --> 00:44:51.440 to conduct some alternative narrative, in other words, something involving 720 00:44:51.440 --> 00:44:54.559 the Russians and Donald Trump. So they put to bed 721 00:44:54.559 --> 00:44:59.119 the Presidential Daily Briefings saying no Russian involvement, and the 722 00:44:59.119 --> 00:45:03.599 next day Obama, I'm convened the select Cabinet officials, Clapper Brennan, 723 00:45:03.760 --> 00:45:08.079 FBI Director Andrew McCabe, and new Intelligence Community assessment, what 724 00:45:08.119 --> 00:45:15.400 they call an ICA, was ordered. Give us an intelligence 725 00:45:15.639 --> 00:45:21.199 community asset that undermines the previous determination that Trump was 726 00:45:21.280 --> 00:45:24.000 not in the Russians didn't influence Trump. We need an 727 00:45:24.000 --> 00:45:27.239 alternative document. We need something that says the polar opposite. 728 00:45:27.320 --> 00:45:32.239 Is the bottom line here. The replacement narrative claimed Russian 729 00:45:32.320 --> 00:45:35.480 intervened in the twenty sixteen election to help Trump win 730 00:45:35.519 --> 00:45:39.760 the presidency, even though there's no information that suggests that 731 00:45:40.320 --> 00:45:43.400 the top intelligence agency has concluded that that never happened. 732 00:45:47.159 --> 00:45:51.039 And of course Brennan and Comy made sure that the 733 00:45:51.159 --> 00:45:56.920 Steele dossier was incorporated into this revised Intelligence Community assessment, 734 00:45:56.960 --> 00:45:59.039 the one that's the polar oppice of the previous one, 735 00:45:59.079 --> 00:46:02.960 the Presidential Daily Briefing where they said Russia wasn't involved. Well, look, 736 00:46:02.960 --> 00:46:05.440 the Steele dossier says that we've got all this information 737 00:46:05.519 --> 00:46:09.400 on Trump, all the salacious details. Clearly the Russians were 738 00:46:09.400 --> 00:46:19.199 blackmailing Trump clearly the Russians were involved with this. Comey 739 00:46:19.320 --> 00:46:22.760 then used the Steele dossier to entrap Trump. They were 740 00:46:22.800 --> 00:46:25.559 trying to entrap him into a false confession before the inauguration, 741 00:46:25.639 --> 00:46:27.960 which was why they the speed at which this all 742 00:46:28.000 --> 00:46:32.519 took place. So at that point, the FBI director went 743 00:46:32.599 --> 00:46:36.800 over to Trump Tower with this new whole cloth created 744 00:46:37.360 --> 00:46:43.599 intelligence community assessment, which deceptively alleged Russian interference in the campaign, 745 00:46:43.639 --> 00:46:48.079 and also confronted the president elect Donald Trump with salacious 746 00:46:48.199 --> 00:46:51.440 accusations in the dossier that the bureau knew were fake. 747 00:46:52.679 --> 00:46:53.400 That didn't work. 748 00:46:53.679 --> 00:46:58.639 Trump vigorously denied the allegations as utterly preposterous. That that 749 00:46:59.360 --> 00:47:01.840 did not deter Comy and his minions at the FBI. 750 00:47:03.199 --> 00:47:08.199 They escalated their investigation in Trump and propagated the collusion lie. 751 00:47:08.239 --> 00:47:16.960 Clapper leaked the Steele dossier to CNN hmmm, and the 752 00:47:17.000 --> 00:47:20.480 mainstream media spent the next year well convicting the new 753 00:47:20.519 --> 00:47:25.360 president in the court of public opinion no plausible evidence, though. 754 00:47:25.480 --> 00:47:27.280 The only thing they have is a Steele dossier, and 755 00:47:27.320 --> 00:47:32.559 that was a lie. Comy eventually fired. He stole documents 756 00:47:32.599 --> 00:47:35.039 from the FBA out the door and promptly leaked them 757 00:47:35.079 --> 00:47:36.880 to a friend of the media to trigger the appointment 758 00:47:36.920 --> 00:47:40.199 of Special Council that person Robert Mueller. You may remember 759 00:47:40.239 --> 00:47:47.320 that Mueller, his investigation, once concluded, found no evidence of 760 00:47:47.360 --> 00:47:52.079 a criminal collusion conspiracy, so nothing to see here, which 761 00:47:52.119 --> 00:47:54.800 when you go back to the original presidential Daily Briefing, 762 00:47:54.880 --> 00:47:57.840 that's exactly what the intelligence officials told the president those 763 00:47:57.880 --> 00:48:00.760 who were in the room, there was nothing here. Fast 764 00:48:00.800 --> 00:48:04.719 forward several years, multiple investigations, many people's name drugged through 765 00:48:04.760 --> 00:48:07.239 the mud, the Steele dossier everywhere, and people claiming it 766 00:48:07.280 --> 00:48:11.840 was real. Ultimately Mueller, after an investigation, sorry, there's nothing 767 00:48:11.920 --> 00:48:18.280 to see here. So this went on for over a decade, 768 00:48:18.840 --> 00:48:21.920 one succession of events after another, all going after Donald Trump. 769 00:48:22.000 --> 00:48:24.199 Which is an interesting thing because, as I mentioned, I'm 770 00:48:24.199 --> 00:48:30.320 giving credit to Greg Jared of Fox News reporting the 771 00:48:30.480 --> 00:48:34.480 new FBI has already opened a criminal investigation to Brennan 772 00:48:34.599 --> 00:48:38.519 Commy for doing all of this, but as he observes, 773 00:48:38.679 --> 00:48:41.079 they weren't the only ones he should be held to account. 774 00:48:41.159 --> 00:48:43.119 This is a long one and it goes right to 775 00:48:43.159 --> 00:48:46.840 the top Obama and Clinton, who started the whole idea 776 00:48:47.000 --> 00:48:54.639 of Russian collusion from whole cloth, and as and as 777 00:48:54.639 --> 00:48:58.760 Greg Jarrett notes, and there's some strength to this this conclusion. 778 00:48:58.800 --> 00:49:01.079 It all started with the illusion huaks, but it didn't 779 00:49:01.159 --> 00:49:03.920 end there. Trump appears to have been the victim of 780 00:49:04.039 --> 00:49:07.880 an ongoing criminal conspiracy going over nearly a decade, eventually 781 00:49:07.920 --> 00:49:11.559 evolved into the specious prosecutions brought by Special Counsel Jack Smith, 782 00:49:12.320 --> 00:49:16.639 engineered by the Biden administration, and simultaneous cover ups of 783 00:49:16.719 --> 00:49:20.639 suspected illegal activities by the Biden family. Remember Hunter Biden, 784 00:49:20.679 --> 00:49:22.960 how they sat on all the evidence they had about him. 785 00:49:23.440 --> 00:49:26.039 They could have grabbed him at one point, they let 786 00:49:26.119 --> 00:49:29.119 him go. All the information that the FBI had obtained, 787 00:49:29.119 --> 00:49:31.440 a lot of which was confirmed by the Hunter Biden 788 00:49:31.519 --> 00:49:36.159 laptop that ultimately was found. All this going on at 789 00:49:36.199 --> 00:49:42.039 the same time, but the FBI apparently now examining the 790 00:49:42.079 --> 00:49:46.239 possibility of bringing what they call a grand conspiracy case 791 00:49:46.280 --> 00:49:49.280 that would encompass all of the aforementioned folks that were 792 00:49:49.320 --> 00:49:54.480 involved in this over three presidential elections twenty sixteen, twenty twenty, 793 00:49:54.480 --> 00:49:58.679 and twenty four. So if you have you adopt this strategy, 794 00:49:58.679 --> 00:50:01.039 and you try to bring evidence there was a grand conspiracy, 795 00:50:01.079 --> 00:50:04.159 it would extend any expired statute limitations to the date 796 00:50:04.239 --> 00:50:07.639 of more recent overt acts like the raid on mar 797 00:50:07.679 --> 00:50:10.360 A Lago and other events, which if you can relate them, 798 00:50:10.400 --> 00:50:14.079 there you go. It's an ongoing conspiracy. Whether or not 799 00:50:14.159 --> 00:50:16.400 that has legs that can hold the can stand up 800 00:50:16.440 --> 00:50:18.199 in court remains to be seen. But this isn't an 801 00:50:18.280 --> 00:50:19.960 argument I've got to make. It's one for the Department 802 00:50:20.000 --> 00:50:23.760 of Justice, who Telsey Gabbert has referred these documents over 803 00:50:23.920 --> 00:50:28.599 for consideration of prosecution. So isn't it interesting All the 804 00:50:28.639 --> 00:50:30.639 puzzle pieces sort of fall into place when you've got 805 00:50:30.639 --> 00:50:34.000 a new administration who's willing to be transparent with what 806 00:50:34.039 --> 00:50:37.920 they've got behind the scenes. Go back to the original 807 00:50:38.000 --> 00:50:44.880 presidential memo, nothing to see here, No Russians involved. Hillary 808 00:50:44.920 --> 00:50:48.880 Clinton was lying. The Democrat paid for the Steele dossier. 809 00:50:49.039 --> 00:50:51.519 It was fake, it was created whole cloth, and yet 810 00:50:51.599 --> 00:50:54.079 it served to do so much damage to Donald Trump. 811 00:50:54.119 --> 00:50:57.400 They continued to claim that was true and even got 812 00:50:57.440 --> 00:51:00.719 warrants from the Pizer Court based on that teen fifty 813 00:51:00.760 --> 00:51:04.239 five KR see the talk station.

Number one installer 820 00:51:23.280 --> 00:51:25.400 in the Tri State for tankless water heater has been 821 00:51:25.440 --> 00:51:27.679 dwelling on this for a while. Now you get endless 822 00:51:27.719 --> 00:51:30.800 hot water. It never runs out, just flows right through it. 823 00:51:30.800 --> 00:51:33.159 It's hot. On the other side, small too, a lot 824 00:51:33.199 --> 00:51:36.119 smaller than a tank. Took the size of a medium's 825 00:51:36.239 --> 00:51:38.960 and maybe you call it small sized suitcase. Water flows 826 00:51:39.000 --> 00:51:42.079 through it. It instantly heated up and delivered to the 827 00:51:42.320 --> 00:51:45.239 shower or whatever else you're using for hot water, and 828 00:51:45.280 --> 00:51:48.480 again never running out. They last longer than the traditional 829 00:51:48.519 --> 00:51:51.639 tank and of course maybe you're not aware, but lower 830 00:51:51.760 --> 00:51:54.519 energy bills. Traditional water heaters keep a tank water hot 831 00:51:54.559 --> 00:51:57.159 twenty four to seven. Tankless only heats water up when 832 00:51:57.199 --> 00:51:59.960 you need it, meaning less energy waste and true savings 833 00:52:00.039 --> 00:52:03.280 over time.

Happy Monday. 862 00:53:25.559 --> 00:53:28.159 You're reflecting on all this information is coming out. TELLUSA 863 00:53:28.199 --> 00:53:31.920 GAB to releasing these documents reflecting the Obama administration. Hillary 864 00:53:31.960 --> 00:53:36.800 Clinton launched this Russia collusion lie and an effort to 865 00:53:37.119 --> 00:53:39.800 win the race for Hillary Clinton. Obviously she had that 866 00:53:39.880 --> 00:53:43.599 massive email server problem, right, we all know about that. 867 00:53:47.199 --> 00:53:51.199 But when you think about the lengths to which they, 868 00:53:51.440 --> 00:53:57.280 the collective of these politically biased actors FBI, Department of Justice, 869 00:53:57.320 --> 00:54:02.000 and others. The first they went to undermine Trump and 870 00:54:02.039 --> 00:54:04.519 to try to get him, to try to get Hillary 871 00:54:04.559 --> 00:54:07.400 to win the race. Obviously that didn't happen, but to 872 00:54:07.519 --> 00:54:10.320 undermine anything he wanted to do in his first presidency 873 00:54:10.360 --> 00:54:13.920 by keeping him so busy with legal allegations and charges 874 00:54:14.000 --> 00:54:22.840 of treason, et cetera, trying to impeach the man they wanted. 875 00:54:22.880 --> 00:54:26.480 They so much wanted a continuation of those Obama leftist 876 00:54:26.639 --> 00:54:29.039 liberal years and That's why I said earlier. I was 877 00:54:29.079 --> 00:54:31.199 just thinking, in the back of my mind, what a 878 00:54:31.199 --> 00:54:34.079 beautiful thing that we didn't elect Hillary Clinton, that she 879 00:54:34.159 --> 00:54:36.559 was not elected president. Can you imagine the state of 880 00:54:36.559 --> 00:54:42.079 affairs with this level of corruption if Hillary had four 881 00:54:42.119 --> 00:54:45.719 more years to further enshrine the prior aid of Barack 882 00:54:45.800 --> 00:54:52.159 Obama and all I mean. And you just step back 883 00:54:52.199 --> 00:54:55.079 and listen, you sort of remember the screaming, the whail 884 00:54:55.159 --> 00:54:58.199 and the nashing of tea. Donald Trump, Evil, Donald Trump, 885 00:54:58.239 --> 00:55:00.400 Donald Trump, Oh my god. Well this is because you know, 886 00:55:00.480 --> 00:55:02.960 he stood in the way of this agenda moving forward. 887 00:55:04.079 --> 00:55:07.639 He's the antithesis of the See, they want to convince 888 00:55:07.679 --> 00:55:09.679 you that Donald Trump is the fascist, that Donald Trump's 889 00:55:09.719 --> 00:55:11.800 one wanting to take your rights away from you.

Donald Trump to the rescue. 894 00:55:29.679 --> 00:55:33.760 I suppose she's certainly making the most of it right now, 895 00:55:33.840 --> 00:55:34.800 isn't he?

Mike or Matt, Welcome to the Morning 972 00:59:23.280 --> 00:59:24.639 Show and a happy Monday to you, sir. 973 00:59:26.039 --> 00:59:27.119 Oh morning, Bryan. 974 00:59:27.320 --> 00:59:30.159 Yeah, I was remembering if when you were talking about 975 00:59:30.159 --> 00:59:35.519 all this evidence coming out now, I remembered back. I 976 00:59:35.519 --> 00:59:39.239 think it was the twenty twenty election when you had 977 00:59:39.360 --> 00:59:43.679 Rudy Juliani and I can't remember the woman's full name, 978 00:59:43.719 --> 00:59:46.480 but I think her first name was Sydney, and they 979 00:59:46.519 --> 00:59:51.159 said we have a fire hose amount of information of evidence, 980 00:59:51.360 --> 00:59:53.280 and that kind of just kind of went away. 981 00:59:53.360 --> 00:59:55.119 She was like black balls. 982 00:59:55.159 --> 00:59:59.039 And of course we know what Judy Ruleiani went through, 983 00:59:59.639 --> 01:00:02.079 but to be all that's going to come out now 984 01:00:02.119 --> 01:00:05.480 and then those can be you know, I. 985 01:00:05.440 --> 01:00:09.719 Suspect I suspect it will, at least under a Trump administration. 986 01:00:11.239 --> 01:00:13.400 You know, if the Democrats get control again, this will 987 01:00:13.440 --> 01:00:17.159 all amazingly disappear and nothing else will be said of it. 988 01:00:17.760 --> 01:00:19.320 And you go back to any of the comments that 989 01:00:19.360 --> 01:00:22.199 were made and the fact that they were lambasted and 990 01:00:22.679 --> 01:00:26.400 made fun of based upon their comments. Mainstream media, legacy media, 991 01:00:26.440 --> 01:00:29.239 they were all on board on this. Russia, Russia, Russia, Russia. 992 01:00:29.239 --> 01:00:32.039 You heard it over and over again every single day, 993 01:00:32.440 --> 01:00:35.880 parroting what the Biden administration was telling you, parroting what 994 01:00:35.920 --> 01:00:39.480 the Obama administration obviously launched and started before Trump took over. 995 01:00:40.199 --> 01:00:42.880 So yeah, it's easy to sell a lie when everyone's 996 01:00:42.920 --> 01:00:44.840 repeating the lie over and over again. You hear it, 997 01:00:44.840 --> 01:00:46.719 and you say it enough people start to believe it 998 01:00:46.760 --> 01:00:48.800 and take it for the truth. Thank God for a 999 01:00:48.880 --> 01:00:52.639 change of administration. It's amazing. The border gets immediately shut down. 1000 01:00:52.719 --> 01:00:55.719 No more flooding of illegal immigrants across the border. Why, well, 1001 01:00:55.760 --> 01:00:58.119 we got a new administration. Oh look, here's a whole 1002 01:00:58.119 --> 01:01:00.800 bunch of documents showing that you are they're all lied to. 1003 01:01:01.039 --> 01:01:03.639 Oh thank you, new administration. Appreciate what you're doing for 1004 01:01:03.679 --> 01:01:09.280 the American people. No reason I'm jaded and cynical. You 1005 01:01:09.320 --> 01:01:11.559 know exactly why, Matt.

And my son took 1011 01:01:23.440 --> 01:01:26.039 the old CRV in get the air conditioning fixed, among 1012 01:01:26.079 --> 01:01:28.800 other things. They found quite a few problems with the 1013 01:01:28.840 --> 01:01:31.960 old CRV, and I know he didn't pay nearly as 1014 01:01:32.039 --> 01:01:34.800 much had he had that car service in the dealership. 1015 01:01:34.840 --> 01:01:38.239 Probably would have decided to junk it had he gone 1016 01:01:38.280 --> 01:01:40.320 to the dealership. But Foreign Exchange is there for you, 1017 01:01:40.400 --> 01:01:43.039 as he certified master technicians working on the car. Whatever 1018 01:01:43.079 --> 01:01:46.159 kind of car you've got from Asia, Europe, traditionally manufactured 1019 01:01:46.280 --> 01:01:48.760 or Tesla's, you're going to leave with a full warranty 1020 01:01:48.760 --> 01:01:51.239 on parts and service.

They do all repairs, full warranty, as 1022 01:01:56.440 --> 01:01:58.480 I mentioned, And the great thing about Foreign Exchange you'll 1023 01:01:58.519 --> 01:02:01.800 save perhaps a heap to money versus the dealership.

Chuck ing Ram 1050 01:03:27.239 --> 01:03:29.440 on fifty five care see the talk station. 1051 01:03:32.159 --> 01:03:34.159 Go to b AD six forty fifty five kre City 1052 01:03:34.239 --> 01:03:39.400 talk station mar Shenanigan's declarations. 1053 01:03:42.480 --> 01:03:42.679 Back. 1054 01:03:42.760 --> 01:03:45.880 So you had the other setifaction circum concern of the 1055 01:03:45.960 --> 01:03:49.119 Russia collusion. You know, this whole cloth creation that Russian 1056 01:03:49.119 --> 01:03:53.079 interfere with the presidential elections benefit Donald Trump. Right, you 1057 01:03:53.159 --> 01:03:57.239 had internal sources saying there was no Russian collusion here, 1058 01:03:57.239 --> 01:04:00.119 the Russians did not influence elections, and yet brought back 1059 01:04:00.159 --> 01:04:02.440 Obama directed them to come up with another narrative saying 1060 01:04:02.440 --> 01:04:04.280 that the Russians were in fact involved. And that's where 1061 01:04:04.280 --> 01:04:07.320 your Steele dossier was brought into play. So they changed 1062 01:04:07.360 --> 01:04:11.280 their opinion, they changed the whole narrative on it, just 1063 01:04:11.280 --> 01:04:16.159 because they were directed to do so. So ignoring what 1064 01:04:16.239 --> 01:04:24.800 the internal intelligence concluded nothing involving the Russians into the 1065 01:04:24.880 --> 01:04:28.800 Russians were involved. One hundred and eighty degree shift. Well 1066 01:04:28.880 --> 01:04:32.639 check this out. We got new documents from America First 1067 01:04:32.760 --> 01:04:35.960 Legal is a conservative organization kind of like Judicial Watch, 1068 01:04:35.960 --> 01:04:38.280 and they, you know, send Foyer requests out and they 1069 01:04:38.519 --> 01:04:41.800 obtained documents, and so that's what they did. So they 1070 01:04:41.800 --> 01:04:45.079 obtained all these records from the Department of Justice, Biden 1071 01:04:45.159 --> 01:04:49.679 Administration's Department of Justice, which was looking for a federal hook, 1072 01:04:49.719 --> 01:04:53.440 a federal connection, a federal law for the purpose of 1073 01:04:53.480 --> 01:04:59.360 investigating and criminally charging parents that protested school policies regarding COVID, transgenderism, 1074 01:05:00.079 --> 01:05:03.280 critical race theory. You remember those the school protests. You know, 1075 01:05:03.280 --> 01:05:05.079 you go to the board meetings and you'd have moms 1076 01:05:05.119 --> 01:05:07.639 and dads angry about the curriculum, and then there was 1077 01:05:07.679 --> 01:05:09.840 all this, Oh my god, they're a danger and threat 1078 01:05:09.840 --> 01:05:15.840 to humanity. Ah, we better do something about this. These 1079 01:05:15.880 --> 01:05:18.760 documents obtained by America First Legal, but they say conclusively 1080 01:05:18.840 --> 01:05:25.079 prove a memo from former US Attorney Merrick Gardland, mobilize 1081 01:05:25.159 --> 01:05:29.239 the full force of federal government's firepower against concerned parents, 1082 01:05:29.320 --> 01:05:33.960 not to protect schools, but through silence dissent, and that 1083 01:05:34.000 --> 01:05:37.239 the ensuing investigation was politically orchestrated and coordinated with a 1084 01:05:37.239 --> 01:05:40.800 Biden Whitehouse. That's according to the charges from America First Legal. Now, 1085 01:05:40.800 --> 01:05:42.360 what do we have by way of documentation? 1086 01:05:46.719 --> 01:05:46.920 They have? 1087 01:05:47.320 --> 01:05:49.920 The emails were produced, the photocopies of the emails and 1088 01:05:50.000 --> 01:05:51.880 documents were all published on their website. 1089 01:05:52.000 --> 01:05:52.800 One letter. 1090 01:05:54.280 --> 01:05:57.199 They obtained, Kevin Chambers, aid to the Attorney General, wrote 1091 01:05:57.239 --> 01:05:59.280 to a colleague, this is in October of twenty one. 1092 01:05:59.360 --> 01:05:59.639 Quote. 1093 01:05:59.639 --> 01:06:04.559 We are are aware aware the challenge here is finding 1094 01:06:04.679 --> 01:06:08.880 a federal hook. But White House has been in touch 1095 01:06:08.960 --> 01:06:11.920 about whether we can assist in some form or fashion. 1096 01:06:13.920 --> 01:06:17.800 This federal hook is is there a federal law in 1097 01:06:17.840 --> 01:06:21.119 play here that allows us to charge or go after 1098 01:06:21.320 --> 01:06:25.960 parents who are interrupting these meetings. It's a simple legal question. 1099 01:06:26.039 --> 01:06:27.119 Do we have a law on the books on a 1100 01:06:27.119 --> 01:06:31.480 federal level. The FBI was asked to assist local law 1101 01:06:31.639 --> 01:06:36.840 enforcement with what they described in this Garland directive as 1102 01:06:36.920 --> 01:06:40.039 disturbing spike and harassment, intimidation, and threats of violence against 1103 01:06:40.039 --> 01:06:45.400 school administrators. So the National School Board Association is the 1104 01:06:45.440 --> 01:06:47.639 one that brought this to the attention of the administration 1105 01:06:47.760 --> 01:06:51.800 Biden administration was asked by the school Board Association to 1106 01:06:52.000 --> 01:06:56.079 investigate parents. You may recall when that came out was 1107 01:06:56.199 --> 01:06:59.599 rather an amazing revelation that the school National school Board 1108 01:06:59.599 --> 01:07:02.840 Association was telling the White House, or asking the White 1109 01:07:02.840 --> 01:07:08.000 House to investigate you for your behavior at school boards, 1110 01:07:08.760 --> 01:07:12.599 claiming that you, if you were protesting, were a domestic terrorist. 1111 01:07:13.239 --> 01:07:17.519 That later was was retracted ultimately, yet career Department of 1112 01:07:17.679 --> 01:07:22.440 Justice lawyers were concerned about what legal action they could take. 1113 01:07:23.320 --> 01:07:26.920 One DOJ attorney wrote to colleagues and an email dated 1114 01:07:26.920 --> 01:07:29.360 October of twenty one. Listen, He said, I read the 1115 01:07:29.440 --> 01:07:33.079 letter from the National school Board Association and looked at 1116 01:07:33.119 --> 01:07:36.199 the links for a handful of footnotes, and it appears 1117 01:07:36.239 --> 01:07:40.400 to me that the vast, vast majority of behaviors cited 1118 01:07:41.039 --> 01:07:47.719 cannot be reached by federal law. In other words, nobody 1119 01:07:47.800 --> 01:07:49.800 violated federal Well, there's no federal law in the books 1120 01:07:49.800 --> 01:07:51.960 that could be asserted that they violated. 1121 01:07:52.719 --> 01:07:53.039 He said. 1122 01:07:53.119 --> 01:07:56.719 I saw three stories that involved what sounds like possible 1123 01:07:56.840 --> 01:08:00.960 true threat. Almost all the language used is protected by 1124 01:08:00.960 --> 01:08:03.360 the First Amendment. The main issue to me, it seems 1125 01:08:03.360 --> 01:08:06.199 to be the disruption and obstruction of school board meetings, 1126 01:08:06.360 --> 01:08:09.280 which can be reached by local trespassing laws or disturbance 1127 01:08:09.320 --> 01:08:12.960 of the peace laws, but nothing remotely in violation of 1128 01:08:13.039 --> 01:08:17.119 federal law. So it seems we're ramping up an awful 1129 01:08:17.159 --> 01:08:20.520 lot of federal manpower for what is currently non federal conduct. 1130 01:08:20.720 --> 01:08:23.479 There's your internal memo from someone on the front lines 1131 01:08:23.520 --> 01:08:26.199 investigating whether it's appropriate for the FBI to even be 1132 01:08:26.279 --> 01:08:31.800 involved in this. The answer clearly no. And yet we 1133 01:08:31.920 --> 01:08:35.000 learned later from a whistleblower that the FBI launched dozens 1134 01:08:35.039 --> 01:08:38.199 of investigation in the parents after Garland directed the agency 1135 01:08:38.239 --> 01:08:47.159 to do it. Hmm, chilling effect much. Now, ultimately, what 1136 01:08:47.199 --> 01:08:49.960 you take away from this is, Okay, listen, there's nothing 1137 01:08:50.000 --> 01:08:50.520 to see here. 1138 01:08:50.560 --> 01:08:50.720 Though. 1139 01:08:50.800 --> 01:08:52.359 We don't have a federal law in the books to 1140 01:08:52.399 --> 01:08:54.720 go after these parents. Leave it to local law enforcement. 1141 01:08:55.840 --> 01:08:58.239 We're a limited resource agency. We got the stuff to 1142 01:08:58.279 --> 01:09:01.359 look into. We've got lots of crimes out there in 1143 01:09:01.399 --> 01:09:03.560 the world that actually are federal crimes. So why are 1144 01:09:03.560 --> 01:09:06.359 we spending all these allocating all this money and resources 1145 01:09:06.439 --> 01:09:12.439 when it doesn't involve federal law. Good question, But they 1146 01:09:12.479 --> 01:09:19.680 did it anyway, and it was widely reported. Obviously a 1147 01:09:19.800 --> 01:09:24.399 chilling effect intended here. The follow up on this ultimately 1148 01:09:24.439 --> 01:09:26.720 would have been the Feds had no nothing to hang 1149 01:09:26.760 --> 01:09:29.000 their hat on, but they did an investigation. Can you 1150 01:09:29.039 --> 01:09:30.880 imagine an FBI agent coming to your front door and 1151 01:09:30.880 --> 01:09:32.640 asking you questions about what you said in the school 1152 01:09:32.640 --> 01:09:36.600 board meeting and that word gets out, Oh my god, 1153 01:09:36.680 --> 01:09:38.319 if you say anything in the school board meeting, the 1154 01:09:38.760 --> 01:09:43.199 federal government via the FBI is going to come on 1155 01:09:43.319 --> 01:09:45.319 your front porch, knock on your door, and want to 1156 01:09:45.319 --> 01:09:47.439 have a conversation with you about your activities at the 1157 01:09:47.439 --> 01:09:51.960 school board meeting. Now, if you fought them, I guess 1158 01:09:52.000 --> 01:09:53.399 you would have backed them in a corner because there 1159 01:09:53.439 --> 01:09:56.520 was no federal law at play here. Could they have 1160 01:09:56.640 --> 01:09:59.359 worked with local law enforcement to the extent you violated 1161 01:09:59.359 --> 01:10:01.600 a state law? Yes, they could have worked with them, 1162 01:10:01.640 --> 01:10:04.079 But why would they allocate the resources to do that? 1163 01:10:04.520 --> 01:10:07.159 How much work can it possibly take for local law 1164 01:10:07.239 --> 01:10:10.039 enforcement to review the footage of the school board meeting, 1165 01:10:10.359 --> 01:10:12.720 see what you or somebody else did by way of 1166 01:10:12.720 --> 01:10:16.279 disruption and determine if they the local law enforcement can 1167 01:10:16.279 --> 01:10:19.520 figure out whether you broke a state law that doesn't 1168 01:10:19.560 --> 01:10:29.359 require federal agents. And they knew they were wasting their 1169 01:10:29.399 --> 01:10:33.600 time and spending their wheels at the outset because internal 1170 01:10:33.640 --> 01:10:39.079 guidance from the lawyers said that no federal laws were broken. 1171 01:10:40.720 --> 01:10:44.039 Six forty seven fifty five kr C Detalk station.

Jay's got to say 1196 01:11:45.760 --> 01:11:47.600 this morning, Jay, thanks for calling on a Happy Monday 1197 01:11:47.600 --> 01:11:47.840 to you. 1198 01:11:49.079 --> 01:11:53.159 Happy Monday, Brian, Hey, I applaud you for reporting out 1199 01:11:53.199 --> 01:11:55.960 on the FBI and their involvement in the in the 1200 01:11:55.960 --> 01:11:56.520 school board. 1201 01:11:56.560 --> 01:11:57.800 But I think there's a bigger. 1202 01:11:57.520 --> 01:12:01.199 Story than than even that, is that if you listen 1203 01:12:01.239 --> 01:12:03.840 closely to local news, and I know that you do, 1204 01:12:04.760 --> 01:12:07.079 every time there is any kind of crime that goes 1205 01:12:07.119 --> 01:12:11.239 on inside the borders of Ohio, it doesn't seem like 1206 01:12:11.239 --> 01:12:14.319 the Ohio State Police handle it anymore. It's always that 1207 01:12:14.399 --> 01:12:17.439 the FBI is involved is the tagline at the end. 1208 01:12:17.479 --> 01:12:18.239 Of the story. 1209 01:12:18.920 --> 01:12:23.119 FBI is now involved. And there was a radio show 1210 01:12:23.199 --> 01:12:25.760 up in Northeast Ohio where they had a state cops 1211 01:12:25.760 --> 01:12:29.039 seem like a nice guy, you call in and ask 1212 01:12:29.119 --> 01:12:29.600 him anything. 1213 01:12:29.640 --> 01:12:31.359 So I called in and asked him about. 1214 01:12:31.079 --> 01:12:33.920 This and said, why is it that the FBI seems 1215 01:12:33.920 --> 01:12:36.720 to be involved in all all the crimes that are 1216 01:12:36.800 --> 01:12:40.960 being committed within the borders of Ohio. I don't It's 1217 01:12:41.119 --> 01:12:44.279 very infrequently that I hear that the FBI is not involved. 1218 01:12:44.279 --> 01:12:46.720 It seems like they're always involved. Did the state police 1219 01:12:47.640 --> 01:12:50.600 need to have the FBI on every single crime scene? 1220 01:12:51.159 --> 01:12:54.039 And he was very supportive as oh no that he said, 1221 01:12:54.079 --> 01:12:56.520 it's actually a really good thing because there's been times 1222 01:12:56.560 --> 01:12:58.520 we've had bad guys and we were going to lock 1223 01:12:58.560 --> 01:13:00.920 them up for two years, but if we get the 1224 01:13:00.960 --> 01:13:03.600 FBI involved, they can throw them away for seven years. Now, 1225 01:13:03.640 --> 01:13:06.880 are we still a sovereign state with state laws? 1226 01:13:06.920 --> 01:13:07.199 See? 1227 01:13:07.199 --> 01:13:08.920 That goes to the point of that That goes to 1228 01:13:08.960 --> 01:13:13.520 the point that the internal lawyer was saying, Listen, if 1229 01:13:13.560 --> 01:13:16.319 you are want to investigate the local school boards and 1230 01:13:16.359 --> 01:13:19.600 this activity that you claim is terrorist activity, there isn't 1231 01:13:19.640 --> 01:13:22.800 a federal law that they've broken. So the question is 1232 01:13:22.920 --> 01:13:25.840 in any given circumstance involving something that happens here in 1233 01:13:25.840 --> 01:13:27.920 the state of Ohio, Yes, there's a law in the 1234 01:13:27.920 --> 01:13:29.680 book in the state of Ohio, and that's what local 1235 01:13:29.760 --> 01:13:32.159 law enforcement is supposed to deal with. But is there 1236 01:13:32.199 --> 01:13:36.199 a parallel law something that is covered by federal law 1237 01:13:36.239 --> 01:13:39.960 as well? Quite often they are redundant. So in local 1238 01:13:40.039 --> 01:13:43.399 law enforcement likes using the FBI's resources. Why because, well, 1239 01:13:43.479 --> 01:13:46.439 they usually have limited resources themselves, and the FBI has 1240 01:13:46.479 --> 01:13:50.680 access to more information, databases, and resources that local law 1241 01:13:50.720 --> 01:13:53.199 enforcement quite often does not have in place. It's called, 1242 01:13:53.239 --> 01:13:56.319 you know, working collaborative Italy. I used to have Sheriff 1243 01:13:56.359 --> 01:13:58.439 Neil in the program we're talking about working collaboratively. The 1244 01:13:58.439 --> 01:14:01.800 Hamilton County Sheriff's office along with regional law enforcement and 1245 01:14:01.840 --> 01:14:06.279 the FBI all working together, sharing the information and the 1246 01:14:06.319 --> 01:14:09.239 services they have and helping each other solve crime. So 1247 01:14:09.720 --> 01:14:12.000 I understand the motivation for wanting to work with the 1248 01:14:12.079 --> 01:14:14.439 FBI because of those resources that are available. But you 1249 01:14:14.479 --> 01:14:18.359 make your question is a legitimate one. Are they working 1250 01:14:18.479 --> 01:14:23.720 on a federal law that has been violated? And quite 1251 01:14:23.800 --> 01:14:28.279 often I imagine no, like investigating parents that protest at school. 1252 01:14:28.319 --> 01:14:33.039 Boards investigated it, but there was no violation of federal law, 1253 01:14:33.439 --> 01:14:37.720 which that parallels your stated concerns, Jay, and I appreciate 1254 01:14:37.760 --> 01:14:43.319 them very much. Federalize the law enforcement and we do 1255 01:14:43.479 --> 01:14:46.600 lose our sovereignty as a consequence of that. Do appreciate 1256 01:14:46.600 --> 01:14:49.159 your raising that. Jay, Feel free to call. We got 1257 01:14:49.159 --> 01:14:50.960 a little time before we get the Christopher Smithman at 1258 01:14:50.960 --> 01:14:53.560 seven to twenty every Monday for the Smither event from 1259 01:14:53.600 --> 01:14:55.359 the former Vice mayor of the City of Cincinnati.

Is it how 1264 01:15:08.439 --> 01:15:11.359 might that affect the markets? Will it affect the markets? 1265 01:15:12.159 --> 01:15:12.319 Well? 1266 01:15:12.359 --> 01:15:14.600 Brian James will explain next coming up to at oh five. 1267 01:15:14.720 --> 01:15:16.279 Stick around, I got more to talk about at top 1268 01:15:16.279 --> 01:15:17.039 of the hour, News be. 1269 01:15:17.079 --> 01:15:20.319 Right back from a full rundown and the biggest headlines 1270 01:15:20.479 --> 01:15:22.680 just minutes away at the top of the hour. I'm 1271 01:15:22.720 --> 01:15:26.279 giving you a fact now Americans should though fifty five krs. 1272 01:15:26.479 --> 01:15:27.359 The talk station. 1273 01:15:27.920 --> 01:15:29.520 This report is sponsored by the. 1274 01:15:46.359 --> 01:15:51.439 Seven fifty five kr CD talk station Happy Monday. Looking 1275 01:15:51.439 --> 01:15:53.039 forward to the next segment as I always do with 1276 01:15:53.119 --> 01:15:55.520 Christopher Smithman and former Vice Mayor of the city since 1277 01:15:55.520 --> 01:15:57.920 same for the smith event. We'll get that next segment. 1278 01:15:58.239 --> 01:16:01.439 A few segments with Christopher. Always enjoyable from my standpoint. 1279 01:16:01.479 --> 01:16:02.720 I hope you enjoyed it as much as I do. 1280 01:16:02.800 --> 01:16:06.439 Money Monday's Brian James in one hour Federal Chairman, change 1281 01:16:06.439 --> 01:16:08.399 is coming up and how might that affect the market? 1282 01:16:08.560 --> 01:16:13.920 Solid earnings reports, masking tariff of volatility, and picking the 1283 01:16:14.000 --> 01:16:16.560 right financial planner for you. Those are topics of Brian James, 1284 01:16:16.560 --> 01:16:18.960 followed by our ask the Expert deb from Odor Exit 1285 01:16:19.000 --> 01:16:22.079 returns at the end of the eight o'clock hour five one, three, seven, four, 1286 01:16:22.199 --> 01:16:24.119 nine fifty, five hundred, eight hundred and eighty two to 1287 01:16:24.159 --> 01:16:27.000 three talk found five fifty on your AT and T phones. 1288 01:16:28.079 --> 01:16:28.319 Uh. 1289 01:16:28.319 --> 01:16:30.119 Moving over to energy policy, I saw I had a 1290 01:16:30.159 --> 01:16:33.319 couple of articles with that energy policy, and I appreciate 1291 01:16:33.399 --> 01:16:35.920 the Wall Street journals comment on this. It just illustrates 1292 01:16:36.399 --> 01:16:42.479 how twisted people's normal reactions will come. When you throw 1293 01:16:42.680 --> 01:16:48.359 in government subsidies and mandates and edicts, you end up 1294 01:16:48.359 --> 01:16:54.279 with crazy, crazy outcomes. I mean, I appreciate capitalism and 1295 01:16:54.319 --> 01:16:57.119 it's the free market reality of it. You know, build 1296 01:16:57.199 --> 01:17:00.479 something that people want, they will buy it. The better 1297 01:17:00.520 --> 01:17:03.239 mouse trap. You're going to become well wealthy, and you'll 1298 01:17:03.279 --> 01:17:08.520 employ people. You'll evaluate things based upon you know people's needs, 1299 01:17:08.520 --> 01:17:12.960 the realities of your market, what the competition is. You'll 1300 01:17:12.960 --> 01:17:15.520 do the best you can. If nobody's telling you what 1301 01:17:15.720 --> 01:17:18.079 to do and how to do it, and that's where 1302 01:17:18.119 --> 01:17:20.600 the government comes in and ruins everything. So I saw 1303 01:17:20.640 --> 01:17:24.239 this one article over at zero Hedge Green Agenda. Fallau 1304 01:17:24.319 --> 01:17:28.159 Democrat led Northeast now has the highest electricity prices in 1305 01:17:28.199 --> 01:17:33.279 the nation. They've been retiring a stable, affordable fossil fuel power, 1306 01:17:33.359 --> 01:17:36.119 closing down their gas plants, of course, getting rid of 1307 01:17:36.199 --> 01:17:38.199 nukes to the extent they had any in the first place, 1308 01:17:39.279 --> 01:17:42.960 in favor of of course, so called green projects, solar 1309 01:17:43.079 --> 01:17:45.439 and wind. They are not as stable. You end up 1310 01:17:45.479 --> 01:17:47.319 with blackouts when the wind ning blowing in the sun 1311 01:17:47.399 --> 01:17:50.680 nane shining, you're not generating power. This disrupts the grid. 1312 01:17:50.800 --> 01:17:55.039 It's unreliable, and it's more expensive to build these in 1313 01:17:55.039 --> 01:17:58.079 the final analysis than it is a gas plant. So 1314 01:17:58.880 --> 01:18:00.920 why are the folks in the worth He's paying more 1315 01:18:01.000 --> 01:18:03.920 because they've been pushed over into these green projects to 1316 01:18:04.000 --> 01:18:06.560 the exclusion of things that work and are efficient and 1317 01:18:06.640 --> 01:18:10.279 generate power constantly. We move over to the editorial board 1318 01:18:10.279 --> 01:18:12.520 of the journal. The real risk to the electric grid 1319 01:18:12.560 --> 01:18:16.920 power shortages are coming thanks to wind and solar subsidies. 1320 01:18:17.600 --> 01:18:20.880 Here's how they distort energy investment democrats attacking the GOP's 1321 01:18:20.880 --> 01:18:23.880 budget bill for phasing out subsidies for wind and solar power, 1322 01:18:23.880 --> 01:18:26.079 claiming this is going to cause power shortages and higher 1323 01:18:26.079 --> 01:18:29.439 electric rates. The evidence suggests the opposite. 1324 01:18:29.960 --> 01:18:30.039 This. 1325 01:18:30.119 --> 01:18:35.279 According to a new Energy Department study, Journal, WILL points out, 1326 01:18:35.279 --> 01:18:37.039 as we've been writing for years, the reliability of the 1327 01:18:37.119 --> 01:18:41.079 US electrical grid is in trouble. Energy report projects potential 1328 01:18:41.119 --> 01:18:44.279 power shortfalls in twenty thirty as one hundred and four 1329 01:18:44.319 --> 01:18:48.199 gigawatts of base load power retire in the next five years. 1330 01:18:48.720 --> 01:18:51.960 That's your reliable energy generation. But here's a really bad 1331 01:18:52.039 --> 01:18:56.720 Newsday write that shortfall will exist even if that production 1332 01:18:56.920 --> 01:19:00.239 is replaced as expected, with two hundred and nine gigas 1333 01:19:00.279 --> 01:19:03.680 of mostly solar and wind generation that's under development thanks 1334 01:19:03.720 --> 01:19:08.520 to subsidies and credits. Americans would lose power in twenty 1335 01:19:08.600 --> 01:19:13.920 thirty for an average of thirty four days, assuming typical 1336 01:19:13.960 --> 01:19:17.079 weather condition. If heat waves or storms stress the grid out, 1337 01:19:17.119 --> 01:19:22.119 it just could reach fifty five days. Even without plant shutdowns, 1338 01:19:22.159 --> 01:19:25.840 Americans will lose power for eleven days. Amid demand growth 1339 01:19:26.199 --> 01:19:29.880 like your artificial intelligence demand, the power shortages will be 1340 01:19:29.920 --> 01:19:32.920 worse in Middle America, where demand is growing fast is 1341 01:19:33.000 --> 01:19:37.039 owing to yes AI data centers and renewables that are 1342 01:19:37.039 --> 01:19:40.960 displaced in colon gas. How can this be the answer 1343 01:19:41.119 --> 01:19:45.199 is that the Inflation Reduction Act turbocharge subsidies for wind 1344 01:19:45.239 --> 01:19:49.920 and solar in ways that are distorting energy investment. Because 1345 01:19:49.960 --> 01:19:52.680 the subsidies can offset more than fifty percent of a 1346 01:19:52.760 --> 01:19:56.520 project's cost, solar and wind became more profitable to build 1347 01:19:56.560 --> 01:20:02.199 the new baseload plants gas plants. The credits enable wind 1348 01:20:02.199 --> 01:20:05.800 and solar to underprice coal and gas plans in competitive 1349 01:20:05.800 --> 01:20:10.119 power markets. That paragraph alone points the problem out. Would 1350 01:20:10.199 --> 01:20:13.840 this happen? Would we have unreliable wind and solar power 1351 01:20:14.199 --> 01:20:17.039 that would cost so much more to build than traditional 1352 01:20:17.079 --> 01:20:17.760 gas plans. 1353 01:20:18.039 --> 01:20:18.119 No. 1354 01:20:18.800 --> 01:20:21.119 The only reason we have it is because the ill 1355 01:20:21.199 --> 01:20:25.760 name ridiculously named Inflation Reduction Act. They created the ability 1356 01:20:25.760 --> 01:20:28.640 for wind and solar to be profitable. Built on you, 1357 01:20:31.680 --> 01:20:34.039 the whole we are continuing to dig in turn of 1358 01:20:34.079 --> 01:20:37.359 the national debt. I mean, these credits don't just come 1359 01:20:37.399 --> 01:20:39.399 out of nowhere. I mean you just it's written into 1360 01:20:39.439 --> 01:20:42.439 the law, and it actually is real money, real money 1361 01:20:42.479 --> 01:20:45.520 that's being paid but offset by the federal taxpayer. 1362 01:20:45.520 --> 01:20:45.960 That's you. 1363 01:20:48.520 --> 01:20:52.279 To the profitability of the energy producers who well take 1364 01:20:52.359 --> 01:20:55.560 the careative incentive and move in that direction only because 1365 01:20:56.039 --> 01:21:01.600 of the Inflation Reduction Act into the solar, wind, and batteries, 1366 01:21:01.600 --> 01:21:05.479 which also qualify for Inflation Redeption Act. Subsidies are projected 1367 01:21:05.479 --> 01:21:08.920 to make up ninety three percent of new utility scale 1368 01:21:08.960 --> 01:21:14.000 electricity capacity this year. Colon nuclear and gas plants are 1369 01:21:14.039 --> 01:21:16.199 still needed to back up solar and wind, but they 1370 01:21:16.239 --> 01:21:19.000 can't make a profit running only some of the time. 1371 01:21:19.520 --> 01:21:25.199 Thus many have been closing, thus jeopardizing grid reliability. The 1372 01:21:25.239 --> 01:21:28.359 renewable lobby claims that new gas plants can't be built 1373 01:21:28.439 --> 01:21:29.680 in time to meet. 1374 01:21:29.479 --> 01:21:30.800 The power demands that are rising. 1375 01:21:30.960 --> 01:21:34.760 Ergo, the argument goes, taxpayers must subsidize wind and solar 1376 01:21:34.800 --> 01:21:37.640 in need electric demand. But what if? But if what 1377 01:21:37.680 --> 01:21:42.399 they say is true, why do wind and solar need subsidies? 1378 01:21:43.520 --> 01:21:45.640 There will be a market incentive to build wind and 1379 01:21:45.680 --> 01:21:48.920 solar anyway, right, Well, you can't build the gas plants 1380 01:21:48.920 --> 01:21:51.399 of the new plants in time we have rising demand, 1381 01:21:51.720 --> 01:21:55.239 so great point, What the hell is the subsidy all about? 1382 01:21:58.000 --> 01:22:00.640 They acknowledge there's a shortage new gas turb owing to 1383 01:22:00.720 --> 01:22:05.000 the surging global demand, but turbine manufacturers are expanding production 1384 01:22:05.439 --> 01:22:08.760 and the phase out of the Inflation Reduction Acts. Tax 1385 01:22:08.800 --> 01:22:12.319 credits will provide them with more certainty to make investments 1386 01:22:12.359 --> 01:22:16.119 in new capacity welcome to the renewed demand for gas turbines. 1387 01:22:17.800 --> 01:22:20.439 Turbine makers expanded production in the early two thousands as 1388 01:22:20.479 --> 01:22:23.439 demand for new gas plants rose, but they were left 1389 01:22:23.479 --> 01:22:27.840 with the excess capacity when demand weekend last decade, in 1390 01:22:27.960 --> 01:22:34.319 part because federal subsidies and state renewable mandates encourage utilities 1391 01:22:34.359 --> 01:22:37.760 to buy power from solar and wind instead of gas. 1392 01:22:38.239 --> 01:22:42.000 Of course, that'll drive down demand for these turbines. You 1393 01:22:42.600 --> 01:22:48.159 forced it on us. You took away our choice, which 1394 01:22:48.159 --> 01:22:50.880 had the ripple effect of impacting I'm sure job losses 1395 01:22:50.920 --> 01:22:54.760 over in the turbine production companies. Nobody wept for those 1396 01:22:54.800 --> 01:22:58.119 people losing jobs because you mandated the adoption of wind 1397 01:22:58.159 --> 01:23:04.119 and solar. Wind and solar projects also face long weight 1398 01:23:04.239 --> 01:23:07.119 times to connect to the grid from four to nine years. 1399 01:23:07.119 --> 01:23:10.600 According to a recent study, the Inflation Reduction Act increased 1400 01:23:10.600 --> 01:23:14.640 delays by increasing the projects in the pipeline through the incentives, 1401 01:23:15.279 --> 01:23:17.800 So the phase out of the tax credits could benefit 1402 01:23:17.840 --> 01:23:21.600 renewable projects that don't need subsidies to be economic. The 1403 01:23:21.680 --> 01:23:25.640 claim that tax credits reduce electric rates is contradicted by experience. 1404 01:23:25.680 --> 01:23:28.560 Go back to the article about the Northeast power costs. 1405 01:23:29.479 --> 01:23:32.840 Wind and solar must be backed by peak or gas 1406 01:23:32.880 --> 01:23:36.079 plants or batteries, which both cost more than three times 1407 01:23:36.079 --> 01:23:39.560 as much as base load power. Renewables also cause price 1408 01:23:39.600 --> 01:23:41.880 spikes when there are power shortages, and they require more 1409 01:23:41.880 --> 01:23:45.760 transition investment or transmission investments to balance fluctuations and loads 1410 01:23:45.760 --> 01:23:46.560 and frequencies. 1411 01:23:46.880 --> 01:23:47.520 Think about that. 1412 01:23:47.720 --> 01:23:49.840 You're forcing people to off wind and solar, but at 1413 01:23:49.840 --> 01:23:52.479 the same time, because it doesn't work all the time, 1414 01:23:53.000 --> 01:23:55.840 you got grid problems due to under the lack of 1415 01:23:55.880 --> 01:23:57.760 reliability on those, and then you have to have the 1416 01:23:57.800 --> 01:24:00.680 backup plant sitting there waiting to kick. When the sun 1417 01:24:00.720 --> 01:24:04.399 doesn't shine, the wind doesn't blow. You don't need a backup. 1418 01:24:04.439 --> 01:24:06.720 When you've got the gas plant or the nuke plant. 1419 01:24:07.199 --> 01:24:10.640 It works twenty four to seven, assuming there isn't some 1420 01:24:10.720 --> 01:24:14.560 major disaster there. You don't back up and turn to windmills. 1421 01:24:14.600 --> 01:24:16.800 In solar because you never have a problem having to 1422 01:24:16.800 --> 01:24:21.439 turn to those. It provides constant, reliable power. So we're 1423 01:24:21.439 --> 01:24:23.439 creating a grid here just in an effort to so 1424 01:24:23.560 --> 01:24:27.439 called b green that requires backup generators to kick in 1425 01:24:27.479 --> 01:24:30.640 when the wind isn't blowing and the sun isn't shining. 1426 01:24:31.760 --> 01:24:34.359 They say, all of this is why Texas's residential power 1427 01:24:34.399 --> 01:24:37.239 prices have risen some forty percent over the last seven years. 1428 01:24:37.239 --> 01:24:40.119 The Renewable Lobby says the financial benefits of the tax 1429 01:24:40.159 --> 01:24:43.560 credits are passed on to electric customers, which may be 1430 01:24:43.680 --> 01:24:48.600 true when state regulated utilities build projects, but the credits 1431 01:24:48.680 --> 01:24:53.039 usually pad the profits of the independent generators. The best 1432 01:24:53.079 --> 01:24:54.960 way to make the grid reliable again is to let 1433 01:24:55.079 --> 01:24:59.520 supply and demand work in energy markets without distortions or 1434 01:24:59.520 --> 01:25:03.399 of man dates and subsidies. The GOP budget bill takes 1435 01:25:03.399 --> 01:25:07.199 a step in that direction, and that should be welcomed. Amen, 1436 01:25:07.840 --> 01:25:11.880 maybe we'll start acting rationally and reasonably. I know someone 1437 01:25:11.880 --> 01:25:13.800 out there is in the audiogoing, well, the reason we're 1438 01:25:13.800 --> 01:25:20.760 doing this is because of global warming. Really, really go 1439 01:25:20.840 --> 01:25:23.760 back through the supply chain, at the manufacturer and cost 1440 01:25:23.880 --> 01:25:28.119 and transportation and all the rare earth minerals and elements 1441 01:25:28.119 --> 01:25:31.199 and everything else that's involved in this so called green revolution, 1442 01:25:31.439 --> 01:25:34.359 you will find that there's nothing green at all about it. 1443 01:25:34.960 --> 01:25:36.640 Not to mention the fact that it props up the 1444 01:25:36.720 --> 01:25:39.439 Chinese Communist Party in China. It's a vast majority of 1445 01:25:39.439 --> 01:25:45.880 this so called green technology is generated in China. Fifty 1446 01:25:45.960 --> 01:25:49.880 five KRC the talk station Ah Christopher Smithman's up next, 1447 01:25:49.880 --> 01:25:51.720 and thank god for that, and thank god for USA 1448 01:25:51.720 --> 01:25:56.079 installation keeping people's homes very comfortable and very energy efficient. 1449 01:25:56.079 --> 01:25:58.279 It's the highest R value foam on the market. And 1450 01:25:58.279 --> 01:26:00.439 what they do is injected into the exterior walls of 1451 01:26:00.479 --> 01:26:03.199 your home, those who are under insulated and those who 1452 01:26:03.239 --> 01:26:06.720 have no insulation in the exterior walls. You folks are 1453 01:26:06.720 --> 01:26:09.680 the target audience because you're going to really enjoy the 1454 01:26:09.800 --> 01:26:12.800 energy savings so much savings that you probably'll cover the 1455 01:26:12.800 --> 01:26:15.159 cost of the insulation, which is still only ninety nine 1456 01:26:15.199 --> 01:26:19.920 dollars a month interest free, ninety nine a month interest free. 1457 01:26:20.000 --> 01:26:22.000 I always think about it in terms of like just 1458 01:26:22.000 --> 01:26:24.000 just don't go out to dinner one night a month, 1459 01:26:24.039 --> 01:26:25.720 and you've got the cost of the insulation cover But 1460 01:26:25.720 --> 01:26:27.520 then when you get the energy savings, it may cover 1461 01:26:27.560 --> 01:26:30.840 the cost. So eh, nothing but money to be made here, 1462 01:26:30.880 --> 01:26:33.800 guaranteed return on investment.

If you're not, you're in the best place 1465 01:26:38.680 --> 01:26:40.720 you can be. They'll say, no, we don't need USA's 1466 01:26:40.720 --> 01:26:42.920 foam in the exterior walls. You'll get a twelve undred 1467 01:26:42.920 --> 01:26:45.039 dollars energy tax credit next year if you get the phone, 1468 01:26:45.319 --> 01:26:47.680 which I highly recommend.

You 1493 01:27:56.239 --> 01:27:58.680 know you're heavily involved in politics. You stay on top 1494 01:27:58.720 --> 01:28:01.439 of things. You've got valuable opinions. You were a member 1495 01:28:01.479 --> 01:28:03.720 of council and the former vice mayor, so I think 1496 01:28:03.760 --> 01:28:07.079 your opinions matter and are valuable, most notably as we 1497 01:28:07.119 --> 01:28:09.600 approach November with an election for council and the mayor. 1498 01:28:09.680 --> 01:28:14.119 So yeah, it's I enjoy it. And again, frankly, it 1499 01:28:14.159 --> 01:28:16.079 does take the weight off of me on a Monday 1500 01:28:16.119 --> 01:28:17.039 for a few seconds. 1501 01:28:18.359 --> 01:28:19.640 I'll admit to the crutch. 1502 01:28:21.439 --> 01:28:25.279 Hey, listen, I appreciate you allowing me to be the crutch, 1503 01:28:26.479 --> 01:28:29.760 and I enjoy it. Look, I want to start with 1504 01:28:29.840 --> 01:28:33.840 the Epstein files, and I normally don't start with national stuff, 1505 01:28:33.840 --> 01:28:38.399 but I am. It is bothering me that the White 1506 01:28:38.439 --> 01:28:43.239 House that President Trump, in my opinion, seemed to be 1507 01:28:43.319 --> 01:28:46.479 dropping the ball here. And I don't know all the 1508 01:28:46.479 --> 01:28:49.720 circumstances surrounding it. But here are some of my thoughts 1509 01:28:49.720 --> 01:28:54.479 about it. First, this was a heinous crime. This wasn't 1510 01:28:54.720 --> 01:28:59.800 this wasn't prostitution. No, this was grown people having sex 1511 01:28:59.840 --> 01:29:05.840 with minor children. Yes, thirteen, fourteen, fifteen, sixteen, seventeen year 1512 01:29:05.840 --> 01:29:11.600 olds and then those who were older in quotes were eighteen, nineteen, twenty, 1513 01:29:11.640 --> 01:29:14.720 and twenty one. And so any girl dad out there, 1514 01:29:15.720 --> 01:29:19.399 you know, any girl in your life, and you're thinking, 1515 01:29:19.720 --> 01:29:24.319 these are grown men having sex with our daughters and 1516 01:29:24.399 --> 01:29:29.239 exploiting them. And so this was about the rich and 1517 01:29:29.279 --> 01:29:33.840 the famous, and everybody knows it. We know that the 1518 01:29:33.960 --> 01:29:37.359 people that are on that list that I do believe 1519 01:29:37.479 --> 01:29:42.119 exists that we know that those are the rich and 1520 01:29:42.159 --> 01:29:46.520 the famous, and in their mind they have everything to lose. 1521 01:29:46.800 --> 01:29:50.760 This isn't the one percent, This is less than half 1522 01:29:50.800 --> 01:29:54.439 of percent. And the people that were involved in this 1523 01:29:54.680 --> 01:30:00.439 are monsters. They're walking around us in big positions, going 1524 01:30:00.479 --> 01:30:05.159 to black tie events, still lecturing us, most likely on 1525 01:30:05.279 --> 01:30:11.680 societal morality, and we don't know who they are. Why 1526 01:30:11.720 --> 01:30:14.960 haven't we given a voice to the girls who are 1527 01:30:15.000 --> 01:30:19.359 now women to tell us who these people are that 1528 01:30:19.399 --> 01:30:23.840 they were having sex with because they know and a 1529 01:30:23.880 --> 01:30:28.239 grand jury release isn't gonna give us the details. You're 1530 01:30:28.319 --> 01:30:31.439 the lawyer, Your beautiful wife is the lawyer. You know, 1531 01:30:31.479 --> 01:30:34.760 the prosecution doesn't put their entire case on so you're 1532 01:30:34.760 --> 01:30:37.840 gonna only get a glimpse into it. We know that 1533 01:30:37.880 --> 01:30:40.000 there are people out there, and I'm gonna name some 1534 01:30:40.119 --> 01:30:43.479 of them that could come and tell a story to 1535 01:30:43.560 --> 01:30:47.079 the American public, who's very interested in this because the 1536 01:30:47.239 --> 01:30:52.079 everyday guy out here, the everyday person out here doing 1537 01:30:52.239 --> 01:30:57.000 basic criminal stuff that's crazy. I'm talking traffic tickets. We 1538 01:30:57.079 --> 01:31:00.760 don't get these kind of breaks. Everybody tell who we are, 1539 01:31:01.000 --> 01:31:03.760 they post our information up. You got a traffic ticket, 1540 01:31:03.800 --> 01:31:06.000 you have to show up to court. What is it 1541 01:31:06.039 --> 01:31:09.319 about this case that it seems like the White House 1542 01:31:09.720 --> 01:31:14.159 and even President Trump might not want this information to 1543 01:31:14.239 --> 01:31:16.600 make it into the hands of the American people. 1544 01:31:16.920 --> 01:31:17.600 Yeah. 1545 01:31:17.640 --> 01:31:20.000 Well, and even an announcement that the you know, we 1546 01:31:20.079 --> 01:31:23.000 can't give you the information because it's the subject of 1547 01:31:23.119 --> 01:31:27.760 ongoing Department of Justice criminal investigations. A statement to that 1548 01:31:27.800 --> 01:31:30.720 effect would sort of address what you're talking about. Will 1549 01:31:30.760 --> 01:31:34.319 these these terrible people, these molesters of you and what 1550 01:31:34.359 --> 01:31:38.680 you and I would call children will they be held accountable. Well, 1551 01:31:38.800 --> 01:31:41.359 you don't know yet, but they're investigating that, they're looking 1552 01:31:41.399 --> 01:31:44.159 into it. That may be bringing possible criminal charges against 1553 01:31:44.159 --> 01:31:46.239 the people who did this. And so that's why I 1554 01:31:46.279 --> 01:31:48.880 can't give you the Epstein files as they currently exist. 1555 01:31:49.319 --> 01:31:51.760 That would satisfy me to some degree, Christopher, but that's 1556 01:31:51.800 --> 01:31:55.239 not what was said. He just said, there's really nothing 1557 01:31:55.239 --> 01:31:55.880 there there. 1558 01:31:57.600 --> 01:32:03.079 And everybody knows that the woman who is now serving 1559 01:32:03.159 --> 01:32:08.199 twenty years miss Maxwell, that she has all the information. 1560 01:32:09.359 --> 01:32:12.520 The President of the United States, I'm not the smartest 1561 01:32:12.520 --> 01:32:16.279 guy in the room that he could legally provide her 1562 01:32:16.479 --> 01:32:20.520 the pardon, the space to tell her story on the 1563 01:32:20.560 --> 01:32:25.159 open mic in front of Congress without incriminating herself. If 1564 01:32:25.159 --> 01:32:28.439 the White House really wanted to know what girls were 1565 01:32:28.479 --> 01:32:33.960 being molested by what famous rich men, and I think 1566 01:32:34.159 --> 01:32:37.239 that we deserve to know the whole story. We can't 1567 01:32:37.319 --> 01:32:40.800 keep covering these things up. And that's why seventy percent 1568 01:32:40.800 --> 01:32:44.600 of Americans when they do these polls, want to know 1569 01:32:44.960 --> 01:32:48.520 what happened here. It is a very big mistake from 1570 01:32:48.560 --> 01:32:52.840 the White House. And I'm telling you, politicians overstep their 1571 01:32:52.880 --> 01:32:56.279 boundaries here. This is a very big mistake by the 1572 01:32:56.319 --> 01:32:59.159 White House. It's a big mistake by BONDI it's a 1573 01:32:59.159 --> 01:33:03.079 big mistake by by the president. And you're seeing dissension 1574 01:33:03.479 --> 01:33:06.319 in the cabinet. When you see that kind of dissension, 1575 01:33:06.359 --> 01:33:10.680 Brian Thomas, it means there's something there, may have more 1576 01:33:10.720 --> 01:33:13.840 information than we have. And you have people saying I 1577 01:33:14.039 --> 01:33:17.720 want to resign over the decisions that are being made. 1578 01:33:18.039 --> 01:33:20.239 Yeah, and you have the Democrats now screaming for the 1579 01:33:20.279 --> 01:33:23.159 release of the Epstein documents when they're president Joe Biden's 1580 01:33:23.159 --> 01:33:25.319 sitting on him for four years in his term of office, 1581 01:33:25.319 --> 01:33:27.479 and not a people was uttered about it while all 1582 01:33:27.520 --> 01:33:30.079 the same things were swirling around in terms of allegations 1583 01:33:30.079 --> 01:33:33.279 and demands for information and you know, wanting people to 1584 01:33:33.279 --> 01:33:34.119 be held accountable. 1585 01:33:34.479 --> 01:33:39.399 I mean, this is incredibly fair, crossing political lines, It 1586 01:33:39.479 --> 01:33:44.920 crosses all of this crosses all political lines. This is 1587 01:33:44.960 --> 01:33:47.680 about the rich and the famous, and you and I 1588 01:33:47.760 --> 01:33:52.920 would not be surprised if Biden's son was on the list, right, 1589 01:33:53.199 --> 01:33:57.439 And so everybody seems to be trying to cover for everybody. 1590 01:33:57.520 --> 01:34:00.800 I know him, I have a relationship, I know you, 1591 01:34:00.880 --> 01:34:03.399 I played golf with you. I don't want to destroy 1592 01:34:03.479 --> 01:34:08.159 your life. The American people deserve to know the truth. 1593 01:34:08.359 --> 01:34:11.000 And that's the beginning of my segment. And the White 1594 01:34:11.039 --> 01:34:15.359 House and specifically President Trump, they are making a mistake 1595 01:34:15.800 --> 01:34:19.600 that conservatives out here who really believe in the Constitution 1596 01:34:20.079 --> 01:34:23.000 are not going to turn a blind eye because he's 1597 01:34:23.079 --> 01:34:26.800 deciding that he doesn't want to release information for whatever reason. 1598 01:34:27.119 --> 01:34:30.439 This story is not going away, actually getting bigger. 1599 01:34:30.760 --> 01:34:32.079 I think you are right. 1600 01:34:33.359 --> 01:34:36.039 If you have KROCD Talks Station Money Monday is Brian 1601 01:34:36.119 --> 01:34:37.760 James up at the top of the Art News. The meantime, 1602 01:34:37.800 --> 01:34:41.000 Christopher Smitheman's on the phone venting the spleen. Christopher have 1603 01:34:41.079 --> 01:34:41.800 Adam my friend. 1604 01:34:42.880 --> 01:34:46.279 Well, look, Dan Bongino out in here with this part 1605 01:34:46.319 --> 01:34:49.520 of it, you know, is saying that he might step 1606 01:34:49.560 --> 01:34:52.520 aside over it. And these are people that have more 1607 01:34:52.560 --> 01:34:56.600 information than the public, than the people listening than you, 1608 01:34:56.680 --> 01:35:00.600 and I that is serious. Dan By, you know, has 1609 01:35:00.640 --> 01:35:04.239 a lot of credibility out here with his podcast prior 1610 01:35:04.279 --> 01:35:07.239 to joining the administration and his service to the country. 1611 01:35:07.640 --> 01:35:10.760 The other thing I want to say in conclusion is 1612 01:35:10.800 --> 01:35:14.199 that you have to believe in Santa Claus and the 1613 01:35:14.239 --> 01:35:17.520 tooth Fairy. And I'm not a conspiracy person. If you 1614 01:35:17.600 --> 01:35:21.319 think that Estein committed suicide, meaning this notion that this 1615 01:35:21.399 --> 01:35:25.800 guy is it is still by himself and hangs himself. 1616 01:35:26.119 --> 01:35:28.720 And there's video that kind of just disappears for a 1617 01:35:28.760 --> 01:35:31.319 little bit old. The video is always in the loop 1618 01:35:31.399 --> 01:35:33.399 in this kind of in this period. We just missed 1619 01:35:33.399 --> 01:35:36.159 this part of the video. Look, you've gotta believe in 1620 01:35:36.239 --> 01:35:38.960 Santa Claus coming down your chimney and the tooth fairy 1621 01:35:39.199 --> 01:35:42.159 if anybody out here believes that he committed suicide. So 1622 01:35:42.279 --> 01:35:44.680 all of this is kind of cascading over the White 1623 01:35:44.720 --> 01:35:49.039 House and President Trump and Bondie and I just am 1624 01:35:49.039 --> 01:35:53.439 saying publicly they should all be careful, meaning they think 1625 01:35:53.479 --> 01:35:58.520 they have loyalties that extend beyond what anybody would think 1626 01:35:58.680 --> 01:36:04.520 is misinformation, corruption or cover up by conservatives. They're absolutely 1627 01:36:04.520 --> 01:36:07.800 did wrong about it, right, meaning Conservatives are coming and 1628 01:36:07.800 --> 01:36:09.760 they're still going to talk about it, and they're going 1629 01:36:09.800 --> 01:36:14.680 to demand the transparency that the Trump campaign said that 1630 01:36:14.760 --> 01:36:17.600 they were going to provide yea prior to his election. 1631 01:36:17.760 --> 01:36:20.680 See, there's your problem right there. There's Trump's problem. It 1632 01:36:20.720 --> 01:36:24.319 doesn't his his pronouncements of late and most notably his 1633 01:36:24.479 --> 01:36:28.039 going on full on attack against people in his own 1634 01:36:28.119 --> 01:36:31.319 party for demanding the documents that I just find to 1635 01:36:31.359 --> 01:36:35.119 be completely bizarre behavior given his prior comments on this subject. 1636 01:36:35.560 --> 01:36:38.119 It's one hundred and eighty degrees the opposite direction and 1637 01:36:38.560 --> 01:36:43.039 with no explanation. And that's what's feeding and fueling a 1638 01:36:43.039 --> 01:36:45.600 lot of the conspiracy theories like whoa, whoa, whoa? What 1639 01:36:45.840 --> 01:36:48.159 is going on here? He was making demands, he was 1640 01:36:48.199 --> 01:36:50.760 promising the release of all this information, along with the 1641 01:36:50.840 --> 01:36:54.319 JFK documents and the MLK documents everything else. But here 1642 01:36:54.359 --> 01:36:56.399 he is putting the brakes on him, saying not nothing 1643 01:36:56.439 --> 01:36:58.680 moving on and quick complaining about it. I don't even 1644 01:36:58.720 --> 01:37:00.479 want to hear from you people anymore. I don't even 1645 01:37:00.600 --> 01:37:05.880 I disavow you. And it's bizarre. It's just totally bizarre, 1646 01:37:07.079 --> 01:37:07.439 and he. 1647 01:37:07.479 --> 01:37:11.479 Can't disavow anybody. The public is going to continue to clamor, 1648 01:37:11.760 --> 01:37:14.039 and they're even going to clamor more. There'll be more 1649 01:37:14.119 --> 01:37:17.880 social posts, there'll be more demands for the information. And 1650 01:37:17.920 --> 01:37:20.960 I want to conclude by saying, look, there's a woman 1651 01:37:21.079 --> 01:37:25.000 sitting in jail. Her last name is Maxwell for twenty years. 1652 01:37:25.520 --> 01:37:27.920 She got a twenty year sentence. She's second in command 1653 01:37:28.359 --> 01:37:32.439 the White House. I'm not a lawyer, could legally protect 1654 01:37:32.520 --> 01:37:35.880 her so that she could come to Congress and say 1655 01:37:36.239 --> 01:37:39.920 everything that she knows by name. So we don't need 1656 01:37:39.960 --> 01:37:43.680 a list. If the list doesn't exist, the person exists. 1657 01:37:43.960 --> 01:37:47.000 And why is it the White House demanding that level 1658 01:37:47.039 --> 01:37:51.520 of transparency. They're partning everybody else. Let's parton her to 1659 01:37:51.600 --> 01:37:53.800 the extent. You don't have to pardon her so she 1660 01:37:53.800 --> 01:37:55.800 doesn't have to go back to jail, but you can 1661 01:37:55.840 --> 01:37:59.600 protect her testimony so that she is not retried for 1662 01:37:59.720 --> 01:38:02.920 any thing that she's saying to Congress. So we actually 1663 01:38:03.000 --> 01:38:05.319 find out what happened to these girls, because at the 1664 01:38:05.399 --> 01:38:07.920 end of the day, they're victims. Here there are twelve 1665 01:38:07.960 --> 01:38:10.960 and thirteen and fourteen and fifteen and sixteen and seventeen 1666 01:38:11.039 --> 01:38:15.960 year old girls who were being raped and manipulated by 1667 01:38:16.079 --> 01:38:19.560 grown people who were famous and rich. 1668 01:38:20.399 --> 01:38:24.760 That's the problem it is. It is different rules. 1669 01:38:24.479 --> 01:38:27.680 For different people, different for different people. 1670 01:38:31.640 --> 01:38:34.880 Here Prettybouve KCD Talk Station Brian Thomas with Christopher Smithman, 1671 01:38:35.479 --> 01:38:40.000 pioting away from the Epstein Gate realities and moving over 1672 01:38:40.119 --> 01:38:42.119 to matters related to the upcoming election. 1673 01:38:42.239 --> 01:38:45.399 Christopher, you got the floor, my friend, little brother. 1674 01:38:45.960 --> 01:38:51.000 Another shooting last night, right Hill. You know rapid run 1675 01:38:51.119 --> 01:38:55.279 park and another young person did yeah. And you have 1676 01:38:55.359 --> 01:38:59.079 a council that remains on summer break. You have a 1677 01:38:59.159 --> 01:39:02.159 council either one or two things are happening. It's either 1678 01:39:03.000 --> 01:39:08.119 they don't care or they don't have a solution, or 1679 01:39:08.159 --> 01:39:09.079 maybe both. 1680 01:39:10.039 --> 01:39:11.840 Yeah, maybe both. 1681 01:39:12.479 --> 01:39:14.439 And so the reality of it is we have a 1682 01:39:14.479 --> 01:39:16.880 mayor that most people have never seen. They don't even 1683 01:39:16.920 --> 01:39:18.880 know who he is. There no reason even saying is 1684 01:39:19.039 --> 01:39:22.439 name right. And we have members of council that just 1685 01:39:22.479 --> 01:39:28.039 seem disconnected by this senseless violence that's happening almost every day. 1686 01:39:28.119 --> 01:39:32.439 It's not isolated to a neighborhood. It's not isolated to 1687 01:39:32.560 --> 01:39:36.359 a week day or weekend. It's seven days a week, 1688 01:39:36.720 --> 01:39:42.760 including Sunday. It includes the banks, it includes outer parts 1689 01:39:42.760 --> 01:39:46.720 of downtown, it includes our fifty two neighborhoods. People are 1690 01:39:46.760 --> 01:39:49.680 being slaughtered out here. And here are some of the 1691 01:39:49.720 --> 01:39:51.880 thoughts in the solutions when I was serving as the 1692 01:39:51.960 --> 01:39:55.920 vice mayor. One re coordinated with the share meaning we 1693 01:39:56.079 --> 01:39:58.119 ask the shriff to come in and help us with 1694 01:39:58.239 --> 01:40:01.239 extra patrols in our in the air, give us some 1695 01:40:01.319 --> 01:40:05.319 visibility in places, just dry and be present. Number two 1696 01:40:05.600 --> 01:40:09.159 reaching out to the governor the state of Ohio saying, 1697 01:40:09.399 --> 01:40:13.760 bring in your helicopter, bring in your state highway patrol. 1698 01:40:13.840 --> 01:40:17.520 These are state routes, bring in them. Let them patrol. 1699 01:40:17.840 --> 01:40:22.199 These areas down places like fifty like Reading Road, their routes, 1700 01:40:22.199 --> 01:40:25.319 our state highway patrolman. But I guarantee you you have 1701 01:40:25.399 --> 01:40:29.399 a city hall that doesn't want the help. It's not 1702 01:40:29.520 --> 01:40:32.840 the police department, it's not the command staff. It's the 1703 01:40:32.880 --> 01:40:36.319 mayor and members of council who do not want to 1704 01:40:36.399 --> 01:40:40.159 show in their minds the rest of the fifty two neighborhoods. 1705 01:40:40.199 --> 01:40:43.000 We really don't have a solution. Look asking for help. 1706 01:40:43.800 --> 01:40:47.399 Saying you don't know is what intelligent people do. They 1707 01:40:47.439 --> 01:40:49.600 reach out to their partners and say, listen, man, we've 1708 01:40:49.600 --> 01:40:53.039 got a situation that's happening. Young people are being slaughtered. 1709 01:40:53.439 --> 01:40:56.399 Adults are not choosing to go downtown and hang out 1710 01:40:56.399 --> 01:40:58.840 in the Dora because they don't want to be shot. 1711 01:40:58.920 --> 01:41:02.039 Like you saw a mainstream somebody just drove by Ryan 1712 01:41:02.119 --> 01:41:05.760 Thomas and sprayed the street with bullet. Nobody is going 1713 01:41:05.840 --> 01:41:07.840 to go down there with their right mind when they 1714 01:41:07.840 --> 01:41:11.680 can go somewhere else, right out in the suburbs where 1715 01:41:11.720 --> 01:41:14.800 the shootings aren't happening. And so I'm the former vice 1716 01:41:14.840 --> 01:41:17.760 mayor of the City of Cincinnati, and I'm not going downtown, 1717 01:41:18.039 --> 01:41:20.960 and I'm not going to allow my daughter to go downtown, 1718 01:41:21.199 --> 01:41:23.399 and I'm not going to allow my children, at at 1719 01:41:23.479 --> 01:41:26.840 least I'm sharing with my adult children. Please stay out 1720 01:41:26.840 --> 01:41:30.159 of downtown. There's something going on with the leadership at 1721 01:41:30.239 --> 01:41:35.239 city Hall. The upcoming election elections are local. I'm focusing 1722 01:41:35.279 --> 01:41:38.760 in on Stephen Gooden. He's running as a child right, 1723 01:41:39.159 --> 01:41:42.560 common sense guy running for city council. A lot of 1724 01:41:42.600 --> 01:41:45.600 people might not know him. I served with him for 1725 01:41:46.039 --> 01:41:51.159 a while. Incredibly smart, well thought, came to council prepared, 1726 01:41:51.520 --> 01:41:54.840 didn't introduce crazy resolutions that had nothing to do with 1727 01:41:54.920 --> 01:41:59.840 the business the council. A solid guy, a lawyer, very smart. 1728 01:42:00.199 --> 01:42:04.399 We would do the city great good if all of us, collectively, 1729 01:42:04.640 --> 01:42:07.600 no matter what your political party, was, voted for Steven 1730 01:42:07.640 --> 01:42:11.640 good I like a Linda Matthews. Linda Matthews is running, 1731 01:42:12.000 --> 01:42:16.640 lives in Avondale. Great person, thoughtful, common sense. 1732 01:42:17.520 --> 01:42:18.239 Vote for her. 1733 01:42:18.520 --> 01:42:20.880 My point to you is that we've got to As 1734 01:42:20.880 --> 01:42:23.239 I go through the list, I'm going to continue to 1735 01:42:23.319 --> 01:42:26.520 identify to the public who I think are good candidates 1736 01:42:26.520 --> 01:42:29.439 that they should hone in on places like Sailor parks 1737 01:42:29.600 --> 01:42:32.880 who don't take a sample ballot, They write on a 1738 01:42:32.920 --> 01:42:35.920 piece of paper. They know where they're voting before they 1739 01:42:35.920 --> 01:42:38.039 get there, they do their homework. I'm sure there are 1740 01:42:38.039 --> 01:42:40.600 lots of other neighborhoods like that, but Saylor Park is 1741 01:42:40.680 --> 01:42:43.640 really like that. Places like College Hill very much like that. 1742 01:42:43.680 --> 01:42:45.279 If you're a candidate, you got a shout out in 1743 01:42:45.319 --> 01:42:48.079 College Hill. The point is that we can't just keep 1744 01:42:48.159 --> 01:42:50.760 voting for the same people and think we're gonna get 1745 01:42:51.600 --> 01:42:56.399 a different outcome. The guy running Bowman, who's running for mayor, 1746 01:42:56.439 --> 01:42:59.520 it's one of the reasons I'm supporting him, right, is saying, 1747 01:42:59.640 --> 01:43:01.920 this is somebody that wants to roll up his sleeves. 1748 01:43:02.119 --> 01:43:04.239 This notion of me talking about who. 1749 01:43:04.079 --> 01:43:05.079 His brother is. 1750 01:43:05.279 --> 01:43:09.000 That's like I've got four older brothers. Yeah right, we're 1751 01:43:09.039 --> 01:43:12.159 all different. You're acting like I'm the same as my 1752 01:43:12.199 --> 01:43:15.279 brother Albert, or I'm the same as my brother Herbert. 1753 01:43:15.399 --> 01:43:17.760 Or I'm the same as my brother Joe. Or I'm 1754 01:43:17.800 --> 01:43:20.199 the same as my brother James. Or I'm the same 1755 01:43:20.199 --> 01:43:23.640 as my only sister may We're all very different. This 1756 01:43:24.119 --> 01:43:28.039 democratic campaign, This is who his brother is therefore this 1757 01:43:28.239 --> 01:43:32.119 disqualifies him. This is pure insanity. And these are the 1758 01:43:32.199 --> 01:43:34.840 kinds of things that democrats do at the end of 1759 01:43:34.880 --> 01:43:38.039 the day to try to keep power. The reality is 1760 01:43:38.319 --> 01:43:43.199 African Americans, young people with guns are killing each other 1761 01:43:43.239 --> 01:43:45.760 in our city, and we need to elect people that 1762 01:43:45.920 --> 01:43:48.840 actually care about making sure that that stops. 1763 01:43:49.000 --> 01:43:52.159 Yeah, and it's a difficult challenge from someone in elected 1764 01:43:52.199 --> 01:43:55.439 capacity to solve the problem that I think is an 1765 01:43:55.439 --> 01:43:58.159 issue of a problem at home, and that's lack of 1766 01:43:58.279 --> 01:44:01.680 parents who care. I've mentioned a million times, Christopher, I 1767 01:44:01.720 --> 01:44:03.479 know you would have gotten your butt whipped if you'd 1768 01:44:03.479 --> 01:44:05.039 have gone out and hung out at three o'clock in 1769 01:44:05.079 --> 01:44:08.439 the morning in downtown Cincinnati with a gang of fellow teenagers. 1770 01:44:08.840 --> 01:44:11.199 I knew you had curfews growing up. I certainly did. 1771 01:44:11.640 --> 01:44:14.119 We had some measure of discipline and some expectations at 1772 01:44:14.119 --> 01:44:17.720 homes on how to conduct yourself properly. And let's face it, 1773 01:44:17.800 --> 01:44:21.199 getting a hold of a firearm and just unloading into 1774 01:44:21.199 --> 01:44:24.800 a group of people, in what possible way does that 1775 01:44:24.920 --> 01:44:28.359 benefit anyone at all? How is that manifesct Like if 1776 01:44:28.359 --> 01:44:30.039 someone on the left would say, well, it's because they 1777 01:44:30.079 --> 01:44:32.560 grew up in a bad neighborhood and they're victims of racism. 1778 01:44:32.760 --> 01:44:36.880 How does unloading on a group of innocent people, how 1779 01:44:36.960 --> 01:44:39.800 is that a product of a racist environment or some 1780 01:44:39.840 --> 01:44:43.039 poor upbring I don't I can't draw a line between 1781 01:44:43.039 --> 01:44:45.760 the two. It doesn't make any sense. If they targeted, 1782 01:44:45.840 --> 01:44:46.800 they sympathize. 1783 01:44:47.000 --> 01:44:47.359 Go ahead. 1784 01:44:47.680 --> 01:44:52.079 I'm emphasizing to you, Brian Thomas, that there was absolutely 1785 01:44:52.119 --> 01:44:56.359 a time in our society where poverty had no connection 1786 01:44:56.760 --> 01:45:00.399 with poor values. Right, It's notion that someone is poor 1787 01:45:00.840 --> 01:45:03.840 and therefore it doesn't have good values. Look, there are 1788 01:45:04.000 --> 01:45:07.159 single moms out here, there are families where mom and 1789 01:45:07.239 --> 01:45:09.640 dad are there. You've got grandparents that are out there 1790 01:45:09.720 --> 01:45:11.279 raising kids, and they know where. 1791 01:45:11.079 --> 01:45:12.039 Their teenagers are. 1792 01:45:12.399 --> 01:45:14.760 And so what I'm trying to tell city Hall is 1793 01:45:15.079 --> 01:45:17.039 just because you open up a rec center, which I 1794 01:45:17.039 --> 01:45:19.399 think is good, or you open up a swimming pool, 1795 01:45:19.560 --> 01:45:22.560 the bad guys aren't going there. Here's how you solve 1796 01:45:22.600 --> 01:45:26.880 the problem. We need police visibility over time. We need 1797 01:45:26.920 --> 01:45:30.279 to make sure they're officers in uniform, in position, with 1798 01:45:30.359 --> 01:45:34.520 their cars and their lights on. You've gotta build confidence 1799 01:45:34.560 --> 01:45:38.359 with your officers that if something happens there that's on 1800 01:45:38.399 --> 01:45:41.560 the margin, that you're gonna stand with your officers when 1801 01:45:41.600 --> 01:45:43.640 one of these young people walk up with a block 1802 01:45:44.079 --> 01:45:47.159 and they're shooting at somebody, and the officer decides, I 1803 01:45:47.279 --> 01:45:49.560 have to end this with force that you're not going 1804 01:45:49.600 --> 01:45:52.479 to try to destroy the officer, his family, his parents, 1805 01:45:52.520 --> 01:45:56.399 and his whole world are her old world. City Hall 1806 01:45:56.520 --> 01:46:00.640 has a problem with with with managing a police apartment 1807 01:46:00.960 --> 01:46:05.800 and in energizing them to do proactive policing because they 1808 01:46:05.800 --> 01:46:09.399 don't trust City Hall. That's the issue. And the chief, 1809 01:46:09.640 --> 01:46:12.960 as good as the Chief DG is, there's no way 1810 01:46:13.199 --> 01:46:17.560 she can substitute the mayor coming to a roll call, 1811 01:46:17.880 --> 01:46:20.079 or the mayor going on a ride along, or the 1812 01:46:20.119 --> 01:46:23.920 mayor having a press conference surrounded by police officers saying 1813 01:46:23.960 --> 01:46:26.439 I support the men and women in blue. He'll never 1814 01:46:26.560 --> 01:46:29.319 do it because he's interested in a primary where he 1815 01:46:29.439 --> 01:46:32.000 knows his base will not support him. Because they want 1816 01:46:32.039 --> 01:46:34.800 to reimagine the police department. They want to defund the 1817 01:46:34.840 --> 01:46:37.720 police department, and they want to send counselors out when 1818 01:46:37.760 --> 01:46:41.319 we need cops on police runs. Black men and women 1819 01:46:41.399 --> 01:46:44.000 are losing their lives out here, and I'm tired of 1820 01:46:44.039 --> 01:46:47.479 these democrats at City Hall allowing it to happen with 1821 01:46:47.520 --> 01:46:52.359 their silence, spending time on summer break. These are Americans. 1822 01:46:52.680 --> 01:46:56.000 You care about them, Brian Thomas, your listeners care about them. 1823 01:46:56.079 --> 01:46:59.600 You're not focused on their race. These are Americans, and 1824 01:46:59.680 --> 01:47:02.239 they're dying in our streets, and we have a mayor 1825 01:47:02.239 --> 01:47:04.880 and a council that are accent. I'm never going to 1826 01:47:04.960 --> 01:47:07.159 let him off the hook. I'm never going to let 1827 01:47:07.199 --> 01:47:07.840 him off the hook. 1828 01:47:08.800 --> 01:47:11.800 Your summer ice chests of information. 1829 01:47:12.000 --> 01:47:13.479 It's essential to know what's going. 1830 01:47:13.319 --> 01:47:16.520 On inside KARC the talk station. 1831 01:47:19.640 --> 01:47:24.399 Eight o five, the fifty five KRCD Talk station. Happy Monday, 1832 01:47:24.720 --> 01:47:25.640 by the time's right here. 1833 01:47:25.640 --> 01:47:27.159 Always looking forward to this segment because we get to 1834 01:47:27.199 --> 01:47:30.399 hear from all Worth Financials, Brian James, talk Money Matters. 1835 01:47:30.439 --> 01:47:32.640 You call it Money Monday with Brian James. Welcome back, 1836 01:47:32.680 --> 01:47:34.000 Brian Hope. You had a nice weekend. 1837 01:47:34.359 --> 01:47:37.600 Good morning, nice hot, sweaty weekend, as we've become used 1838 01:47:37.600 --> 01:47:38.720 to over the past several weeks. 1839 01:47:38.760 --> 01:47:41.159 Well, I know my grass is as high as an 1840 01:47:41.159 --> 01:47:44.760 elephant's eye. Going back to Oklahoma the musical, I got 1841 01:47:44.800 --> 01:47:47.880 to get the grass cut and he keeps raining on me. Anyhow, 1842 01:47:48.439 --> 01:47:51.279 moving away from that and talking that matters financial now, 1843 01:47:51.279 --> 01:47:55.600 I know Trump's been complaining about the FED chair. He 1844 01:47:55.680 --> 01:47:59.720 wants interest rates lower. Powell says, no, obviously hasn't lowered 1845 01:47:59.720 --> 01:48:02.960 the end or straight Jerome Powell currently head of the FED. Now, 1846 01:48:03.319 --> 01:48:05.880 Trump has already said he wouldn't fire Powell. Powell said 1847 01:48:05.920 --> 01:48:08.840 he'd never leave the job absent dying. So we have 1848 01:48:08.960 --> 01:48:10.960 until May. I guess there's going to be a natural 1849 01:48:11.039 --> 01:48:12.840 changing in the of the guard next May. 1850 01:48:13.399 --> 01:48:15.079 Yeah, I may have twenty twenty six. And let's not 1851 01:48:15.119 --> 01:48:19.079 forget that. Trump himself did a point this particular FED chair, 1852 01:48:19.119 --> 01:48:22.239 which is kind of funny. He was a comment from 1853 01:48:22.239 --> 01:48:25.039 President Trump the other day last week sometime that he 1854 01:48:25.159 --> 01:48:27.760 was surprised when he was appointed. Well the words came 1855 01:48:27.800 --> 01:48:30.039 out of your mouth. So yeah, not sure exactly where 1856 01:48:30.039 --> 01:48:33.199 that surprise comes from, but anyhow, Yeah, so he's he's 1857 01:48:33.199 --> 01:48:36.119 pushing for pushing for a replacement. Trump says he will 1858 01:48:36.159 --> 01:48:38.960 not remove him. That we'll we'll see if that if 1859 01:48:38.960 --> 01:48:41.000 that actually sticks. But that doesn't mean we're not gonna 1860 01:48:41.000 --> 01:48:43.520 go ahead and have the conversation about who might replace 1861 01:48:43.560 --> 01:48:45.359 in May of twenty six when this current term is up. 1862 01:48:45.479 --> 01:48:47.000 Right, I did in quite a few names being thrown 1863 01:48:47.039 --> 01:48:49.359 around and Scott Dissent, for example, is one of them. 1864 01:48:49.359 --> 01:48:51.479 But he's happy where he is as the Treasury Secretary, 1865 01:48:51.520 --> 01:48:53.479 so he's already said no, I don't want the job. 1866 01:48:53.520 --> 01:48:55.520 But beyond that, we could talk about some of the 1867 01:48:55.560 --> 01:48:57.720 other names that are thrown around. But let's as a 1868 01:48:57.760 --> 01:49:03.560 fundamental thing, if Powell was out, whether he got fired 1869 01:49:03.640 --> 01:49:07.279 or he died or he quit, just because you name 1870 01:49:07.319 --> 01:49:08.880 a new chairman of the Fed, doesn't mean they're going 1871 01:49:08.920 --> 01:49:11.119 to lower interest rates, does it, right? 1872 01:49:11.199 --> 01:49:11.560 And the. 1873 01:49:13.239 --> 01:49:16.560 Problem is that President Trump super super super once interest 1874 01:49:16.600 --> 01:49:18.680 rates to come down, and he has he said that 1875 01:49:18.720 --> 01:49:20.880 all through his first term, and he said that all 1876 01:49:20.920 --> 01:49:23.279 through the campaign, and of course he's still trumpeting those ideas. 1877 01:49:23.279 --> 01:49:27.039 Those are that's obviously an extremely business friendly proposition. If 1878 01:49:27.119 --> 01:49:29.239 rates are lower than it's cheaper to do business, and 1879 01:49:29.279 --> 01:49:31.239 we would get an immediate pop in the stock market, 1880 01:49:31.800 --> 01:49:33.680 a little possibly a little bit of a sugar high. 1881 01:49:33.680 --> 01:49:34.880 Because the concern. 1882 01:49:34.560 --> 01:49:37.479 Behind that, and the reason we don't necessarily want to 1883 01:49:37.520 --> 01:49:40.239 do this, is because that can quickly trigger inflation, which 1884 01:49:40.239 --> 01:49:42.600 we've just spent however, many years trying to tamp down 1885 01:49:42.640 --> 01:49:46.680 from the COVID process. So at this point, the concern 1886 01:49:46.880 --> 01:49:49.079 is that if he if he is able to get 1887 01:49:49.119 --> 01:49:51.399 what he wants by simply putting a puppet or a 1888 01:49:51.399 --> 01:49:55.560 mouthpiece in there, then that the long term chaos that 1889 01:49:55.600 --> 01:49:57.319 could come out of that would be pretty dangerous in 1890 01:49:57.399 --> 01:50:01.000 terms of overall inflation spikes. Plus, the FED has always 1891 01:50:01.000 --> 01:50:05.600 been famously independent politically. Yeah, that's one of the departments 1892 01:50:05.640 --> 01:50:08.199 that really has not been impacted by politics so much. 1893 01:50:08.199 --> 01:50:09.399 There is a little bit of history there. 1894 01:50:09.840 --> 01:50:12.000 Nixon got involved in it and it did create some 1895 01:50:12.119 --> 01:50:15.199 chaos and inflation and played a role in the stagflation 1896 01:50:15.319 --> 01:50:18.479 era of the seventies. So there is precedent we can 1897 01:50:18.560 --> 01:50:20.199 look at to see what happens when we get too 1898 01:50:20.279 --> 01:50:24.439 much political control. But you know, historically that area has 1899 01:50:24.479 --> 01:50:26.520 stayed relatively free of political interference. 1900 01:50:26.840 --> 01:50:31.279 Well, I recall Carter screaming and yelling about Paul Volker 1901 01:50:31.319 --> 01:50:33.399 because he one of the interest rates lowered back when 1902 01:50:33.439 --> 01:50:35.119 Vulkar was head of the chair ahead of the FED 1903 01:50:35.199 --> 01:50:37.119 and Volker refused to relent. 1904 01:50:37.319 --> 01:50:38.479 So the other way on it. 1905 01:50:38.640 --> 01:50:41.680 Yeah, exactly, We've been down this road before, so I 1906 01:50:41.760 --> 01:50:44.600 appreciate the independence of the FED. Now, how independent is 1907 01:50:44.760 --> 01:50:49.119 the FED chair in decision making? Because there are all 1908 01:50:49.279 --> 01:50:51.600 kinds of you know, governing board members, they all have 1909 01:50:51.720 --> 01:50:55.119 a say in it or is the chairman exclusively responsible 1910 01:50:55.159 --> 01:50:56.039 for making the decision? 1911 01:50:56.680 --> 01:50:58.720 Well, the buck stops with the chairman. 1912 01:50:58.800 --> 01:51:00.399 But of course there's a lot of in put from 1913 01:51:00.399 --> 01:51:03.720 the various Fed governors and who are regional as well 1914 01:51:03.800 --> 01:51:06.079 as the board itself. And as matter of fact, that 1915 01:51:06.159 --> 01:51:07.800 Trump is trying to stay ahead of that too as 1916 01:51:07.880 --> 01:51:11.720 well by saying not only should should should Shair Powell 1917 01:51:11.800 --> 01:51:14.760 step down, he should also remove himself from the board 1918 01:51:15.199 --> 01:51:16.880 so that we don't have a situation of. 1919 01:51:16.880 --> 01:51:17.640 A shadow chair. 1920 01:51:18.039 --> 01:51:20.479 So there's I'm sorry there was Scott p Ascent that 1921 01:51:20.560 --> 01:51:22.359 said that, but regardless, though, the whole point is they 1922 01:51:22.399 --> 01:51:26.159 want Jerome Powell's opinion out of the mix entirely. So, yes, 1923 01:51:26.239 --> 01:51:27.960 there is a lot of input, but at the end 1924 01:51:28.000 --> 01:51:30.600 of the day, the decision rests with the chair. 1925 01:51:31.000 --> 01:51:35.079 Well, this is a direct impact on treasury bills, right, Oh. 1926 01:51:35.000 --> 01:51:37.920 Of course, yeah, I mean treasury builded. The Fed will 1927 01:51:38.000 --> 01:51:40.159 set rates. We know how that works, right, They'll come 1928 01:51:40.199 --> 01:51:41.800 out and they say rates go up. We're going to 1929 01:51:41.880 --> 01:51:43.439 up a quarter percent, up, a half percent, down a 1930 01:51:43.520 --> 01:51:46.159 quarter percent, whatever. But the market has an impact too, 1931 01:51:46.800 --> 01:51:50.119 And because the market will of course, try to anticipate, 1932 01:51:50.159 --> 01:51:52.159 and I'm referring to the bond market here. The bond 1933 01:51:52.239 --> 01:51:54.560 market will try to anticipate what the moves are going 1934 01:51:54.640 --> 01:51:56.720 to be. And so for example, you know, one of 1935 01:51:56.760 --> 01:51:58.960 the popular things that people want to pay attention to 1936 01:51:59.039 --> 01:52:01.800 this for is because maybe you're in a situation where 1937 01:52:01.800 --> 01:52:03.640 you bought a house in the last three four years 1938 01:52:03.920 --> 01:52:06.319 and you're paying six, seven, maybe even eight percent on 1939 01:52:06.439 --> 01:52:09.800 a thirty year mortgage. Obviously that's something that's that's not 1940 01:52:11.199 --> 01:52:13.319 the norm. We're happier when we're in the three to 1941 01:52:13.399 --> 01:52:15.039 four percent range there. I'm not sure we're go all 1942 01:52:15.079 --> 01:52:16.560 the way down there again, but the lower the better. 1943 01:52:17.159 --> 01:52:19.199 But you want to look at the ten year Treasury 1944 01:52:19.640 --> 01:52:24.319 that's what most mortgage mortgage rates are are tracking. So 1945 01:52:24.439 --> 01:52:26.199 the Federal Reserve will make the moves too, but the 1946 01:52:26.279 --> 01:52:29.640 market will also anticipate which way bonds are going to go, 1947 01:52:29.760 --> 01:52:33.359 and that itself can have impact on what where interstrates 1948 01:52:33.359 --> 01:52:33.760 are going to go. 1949 01:52:33.920 --> 01:52:36.359 But you got to look past the veneer of a 1950 01:52:36.520 --> 01:52:40.319 lower mortgage rate, don't you, Because you mentioned inflation being impacted. 1951 01:52:40.359 --> 01:52:43.159 When the rates come down, you worry about inflation, there 1952 01:52:43.159 --> 01:52:45.920 could be a spike and business activity gets generated, et cetera. 1953 01:52:46.000 --> 01:52:48.079 But people keep talking about, gosh, we want the interest 1954 01:52:48.159 --> 01:52:50.800 rates lower because I want a lower interest rate from 1955 01:52:50.840 --> 01:52:52.800 my home. Now, that's all well and good if you're 1956 01:52:52.800 --> 01:52:55.560 going to refinance and stay where you are, but that's 1957 01:52:55.640 --> 01:52:57.880 not going to increase the stock of housing. In fact, 1958 01:52:58.079 --> 01:53:01.359 we can consider inflation. The lower it is the charge 1959 01:53:01.399 --> 01:53:04.359 to borrow money, the rate at which you borrow. It 1960 01:53:04.439 --> 01:53:07.760 seems like the demand would go up, putting upward pressure 1961 01:53:07.840 --> 01:53:08.920 on the price of a home. 1962 01:53:09.840 --> 01:53:13.119 Yes, absolutely, and we haven't had that much downward Prince right. 1963 01:53:13.159 --> 01:53:15.920 We all stories, we hear kind of anecdotal stories about 1964 01:53:15.920 --> 01:53:18.279 how there's less activity, fewer housing starts, that kind of thing, 1965 01:53:18.319 --> 01:53:20.960 but the prices have not yet dropped. That's how strong 1966 01:53:21.039 --> 01:53:23.720 the demand has been. So yes, you're absolutely right. I 1967 01:53:24.319 --> 01:53:26.640 think it depends on what situation you're in. If you 1968 01:53:26.720 --> 01:53:29.039 already bought a house, then you really really want a 1969 01:53:29.640 --> 01:53:31.720 rate cut so you can refinance, because you heard all 1970 01:53:31.760 --> 01:53:34.000 the awesome stories when you were younger, of the prior 1971 01:53:34.079 --> 01:53:37.960 fifteen twenty, when refinancing was something you did every six months. 1972 01:53:38.359 --> 01:53:40.159 You know, on date night, you don't go out for 1973 01:53:40.199 --> 01:53:42.560 dinner after work. It was just a regular routine. But 1974 01:53:42.640 --> 01:53:44.520 on the other hand, if you are shopping for a house, 1975 01:53:44.600 --> 01:53:47.199 you may not want that. You arguably might even want 1976 01:53:47.279 --> 01:53:49.359 rates to tick up higher, so it'll finally break the 1977 01:53:49.399 --> 01:53:51.640 back of housing demand and things will pull back a 1978 01:53:51.680 --> 01:53:54.239 little bit. Now, all of those are very short term 1979 01:53:54.319 --> 01:53:56.039 in nature, and it really just depends on what your 1980 01:53:56.039 --> 01:53:59.800 own individual situation is. But these are all things, and 1981 01:54:00.439 --> 01:54:02.640 we will not have a perfect situation. Somebody is going 1982 01:54:02.720 --> 01:54:04.560 to end up on the short end of the stick clearly. 1983 01:54:04.840 --> 01:54:07.720 Now, moving away from just the housing industry because you know, 1984 01:54:07.880 --> 01:54:11.319 obviously that's governed purely by supply and demand. If there's 1985 01:54:11.359 --> 01:54:13.159 not enough houses out there, the price is going to 1986 01:54:13.239 --> 01:54:15.319 go up. It's the greatest illustration you can have of that. 1987 01:54:16.079 --> 01:54:20.279 What about other areas of the how it would impact 1988 01:54:20.560 --> 01:54:24.000 from an inflationary standpoint, other areas of businesses? Generally speaking, 1989 01:54:24.079 --> 01:54:26.319 Why is it that a lower interest rate wo would 1990 01:54:26.359 --> 01:54:29.399 have an inflationary reaction Outside of the housing market. 1991 01:54:29.680 --> 01:54:32.039 It generates a lot more hats being thrown in the ring. 1992 01:54:32.199 --> 01:54:34.359 So in other words, if if rates are low, that 1993 01:54:34.479 --> 01:54:37.479 means I can get money for cheaper than I could before. 1994 01:54:37.960 --> 01:54:41.079 And the best type of money to invest with is 1995 01:54:41.159 --> 01:54:43.319 somebody else's. So that's where you hear about all these 1996 01:54:43.359 --> 01:54:47.279 things about companies borrowing to invest or or you know, 1997 01:54:47.359 --> 01:54:52.079 the fabulously wealthy set borrows against their holdings and simply 1998 01:54:52.159 --> 01:54:55.680 wants to pay down the debt rather than liquidate those 1999 01:54:55.760 --> 01:54:58.039 actual holdings to pay for their bills. This isn't something 2000 01:54:58.079 --> 01:55:00.720 the average person gets to do, but that is we've 2001 01:55:00.760 --> 01:55:02.479 set up a system in this country where that is 2002 01:55:02.479 --> 01:55:04.960 a very profitable thing to be able to take advantage of. 2003 01:55:05.079 --> 01:55:08.880 So that generates a lot more activity, and it generates 2004 01:55:09.159 --> 01:55:11.199 just people going out and doing things and buying more 2005 01:55:11.239 --> 01:55:13.000 products and so on and so forth because they're cheap, 2006 01:55:13.079 --> 01:55:15.600 especially now, because we will when that happens, Brian, we 2007 01:55:15.680 --> 01:55:18.560 will convince ourselves of scarcity. These rates that aren't going 2008 01:55:18.600 --> 01:55:20.800 to stay low forever. I better do things right now. 2009 01:55:20.960 --> 01:55:24.000 We saw this with products and imports in the first 2010 01:55:24.119 --> 01:55:26.239 quarter of the year, where we saw a big spike 2011 01:55:26.319 --> 01:55:31.199 in imports, but in anticipation of the coming Yeah, so 2012 01:55:31.399 --> 01:55:33.880 anticipation will itself drive prices up. 2013 01:55:34.159 --> 01:55:36.720 Well, you know you've got an opportunity to borrow for less. 2014 01:55:36.800 --> 01:55:39.760 Of course you're gonna jump on that. That makes perfect sense. Now, 2015 01:55:39.880 --> 01:55:41.359 let me just get a common or two from you 2016 01:55:41.479 --> 01:55:44.000 on this comical notion that you need a what is it, 2017 01:55:44.039 --> 01:55:48.119 two and a half billion dollar reserve office upgrade? 2018 01:55:49.319 --> 01:55:49.479 Yeah? 2019 01:55:49.960 --> 01:55:50.880 What the hell. 2020 01:55:52.319 --> 01:55:52.720 This one? 2021 01:55:53.039 --> 01:55:56.880 It really feels like this is one that you know, 2022 01:55:57.439 --> 01:55:59.960 the the government is operating out abilities that are hundred 2023 01:56:00.039 --> 01:56:01.840 to two hundred years old, So I'm sure they need 2024 01:56:02.119 --> 01:56:04.279 upgrades and things here and there, But yeah, two and 2025 01:56:04.319 --> 01:56:06.560 a half billion dollars later on the price the end, However, 2026 01:56:07.560 --> 01:56:11.760 Chair Powell hasn't ever been someone who is a ostentatious, 2027 01:56:11.960 --> 01:56:13.800 look at me type of a person, So I can't 2028 01:56:14.039 --> 01:56:16.000 I can't simply lay the blame at his feet to 2029 01:56:16.079 --> 01:56:18.399 say that this was a mistake from the beginning. It 2030 01:56:18.520 --> 01:56:21.279 does really seem to be what's what is anything? Go 2031 01:56:21.399 --> 01:56:24.159 find anything that we can point at him and point 2032 01:56:24.199 --> 01:56:26.199 out the weakness of him. And I'm speaking of you know, 2033 01:56:26.279 --> 01:56:28.199 those who are on the warpath to get rid of him. Sure, 2034 01:56:28.319 --> 01:56:30.479 if that's what they came up with, I'm feeling a 2035 01:56:30.520 --> 01:56:32.199 little more confident about Chair Powell. 2036 01:56:32.399 --> 01:56:33.960 No, and I'll agree with you all day long on 2037 01:56:34.039 --> 01:56:34.800 that conclusion. 2038 01:56:35.000 --> 01:56:38.199 And I don't I personally, I know Trump's been pointing 2039 01:56:38.199 --> 01:56:40.880 the finger of Powell over this renovation cost. But to me, 2040 01:56:41.600 --> 01:56:45.439 it exists beyond who's responsible for making the decision two 2041 01:56:45.520 --> 01:56:52.079 and a half billion dollars. It's you can build a 2042 01:56:52.119 --> 01:56:54.279 brand new Bengals Stadium for that kind of money. 2043 01:56:54.760 --> 01:56:59.399 Yeah, absolutely, And there seems to be obviously, we need 2044 01:56:59.600 --> 01:57:02.000 a lot more context behind this to understand exactly where 2045 01:57:02.039 --> 01:57:06.159 that fails. I cannot imagine Taraf Powell spends a lot 2046 01:57:06.239 --> 01:57:09.039 of time looking at marble samples with the job that 2047 01:57:09.159 --> 01:57:11.159 he Yes, I'm pretty sure there are people to do this, 2048 01:57:11.720 --> 01:57:13.119 And I have a feeling that kind of came out 2049 01:57:13.119 --> 01:57:14.640 of left field when he realized he was going to 2050 01:57:14.720 --> 01:57:16.479 have to have a bigger opinion on it and be 2051 01:57:16.560 --> 01:57:17.720 more vocal than than he had. 2052 01:57:17.960 --> 01:57:20.880 Well, you know, you'd expect some measure of fiscal responsibility 2053 01:57:20.960 --> 01:57:22.800 from the head of the Fed. That's all I'm saying. 2054 01:57:22.880 --> 01:57:24.880 You know, that's fair, that's a fair assessment. All right, 2055 01:57:24.960 --> 01:57:27.279 I just yell out loud. I'm putting my foot down. 2056 01:57:27.279 --> 01:57:30.479 There's no way of office renovations should ever cost this much. 2057 01:57:30.520 --> 01:57:32.399 You're going to get lesser expensive chairs. 2058 01:57:32.520 --> 01:57:34.760 Live with it. It's say fifteen right now. More with 2059 01:57:34.840 --> 01:57:35.640 Brian James. 2060 01:57:35.680 --> 01:57:40.039 Speaking of Tariff's solid earnings report, masking tariff volatility. 2061 01:57:40.079 --> 01:57:42.319 That subject coming up next.

Says earnings beats might mask tear of aliatility 2085 01:59:00.640 --> 01:59:02.319 these two weeks. And I'm looking at the Wall Street 2086 01:59:02.399 --> 01:59:05.880 Journal top of the scroll. There Dow, Jones, S and 2087 01:59:05.960 --> 01:59:08.800 P and Nasdaq all ticking up at about a quarter 2088 01:59:08.920 --> 01:59:14.199 percent up. So futures are up. This morning headline front 2089 01:59:14.239 --> 01:59:16.640 page Wall Street Journal of the US economy is regaining 2090 01:59:16.680 --> 01:59:19.239 its swagger, evidence mounting the companies and consumers who held 2091 01:59:19.279 --> 01:59:22.399 back during the spring's tariff chill are starting to splurge again. 2092 01:59:23.520 --> 01:59:26.079 And yet we have Donald Trump saying he's going to 2093 01:59:26.119 --> 01:59:29.039 implement some new tariffs beginning August first, most notably in 2094 01:59:29.079 --> 01:59:32.680 the European Union, a minimum of fifteen to twenty percent tariffs. 2095 01:59:32.680 --> 01:59:35.039 So I'm having a difficult time reconciling what all this 2096 01:59:35.239 --> 01:59:35.920 actually means. 2097 01:59:36.000 --> 01:59:36.640 Brian James. 2098 01:59:36.720 --> 01:59:39.199 It seems like we got good information over here, but 2099 01:59:39.319 --> 01:59:41.520 oh my god, those evil tariffs are coming, And is 2100 01:59:41.560 --> 01:59:43.760 that going to change people's buying habits? Are people going 2101 01:59:43.840 --> 01:59:46.800 to stop buying. I don't doesn't seem to be bothered 2102 01:59:46.800 --> 01:59:48.159 anybody right now anyway, Brian. 2103 01:59:48.359 --> 01:59:49.600 Yeah, it's not really spooking the herd. 2104 01:59:49.800 --> 01:59:52.239 And we've been through this before, of course, in early 2105 01:59:52.319 --> 01:59:55.159 April that was the first round of all the tariff chaos, 2106 01:59:55.520 --> 01:59:58.439 and the market took an absolute beating, dropping in some 2107 01:59:58.560 --> 02:00:00.479 cases close to twenty percent depending on the index you're 2108 02:00:00.479 --> 02:00:02.800 looking at. And so we're going through this again. However, 2109 02:00:03.119 --> 02:00:05.640 the headlines are no different. It's the same headlines. We're 2110 02:00:05.640 --> 02:00:07.439 picking on a country and here's a percent number that 2111 02:00:07.439 --> 02:00:09.199 we're gonna throw at them, and we're gonna give them 2112 02:00:09.239 --> 02:00:09.680 a deadline. 2113 02:00:09.800 --> 02:00:11.279 That same thing we did in April. But the market 2114 02:00:11.359 --> 02:00:12.000 is now used to this. 2115 02:00:12.119 --> 02:00:15.199 So where we're looking at now, August first, a fifty 2116 02:00:15.279 --> 02:00:19.399 percent tariff on copper imports. This is purportedly for national 2117 02:00:19.479 --> 02:00:23.560 security reasons. This is mostly gonna hit Chile with a 2118 02:00:23.640 --> 02:00:26.279 significant impact of construction, electronics, auto energy. 2119 02:00:26.439 --> 02:00:28.359 You know, it used to be that copper was used 2120 02:00:28.399 --> 02:00:30.439 in plumbing and construction. That was kind of it. 2121 02:00:30.720 --> 02:00:33.119 But now just about everything we touch nowadays, since everything 2122 02:00:33.159 --> 02:00:35.960 has to have data moving across it, copper is just everywhere. 2123 02:00:36.000 --> 02:00:39.600 So copper is almost a better indicator of overall economic 2124 02:00:39.680 --> 02:00:41.920 activity than crude oil, you know, kind of crude oil 2125 02:00:42.039 --> 02:00:43.600 used to be the more the more oil we buy, 2126 02:00:43.640 --> 02:00:45.920 the more activity we must have. Well, now it's copper, 2127 02:00:46.039 --> 02:00:47.760 and so there's gonna be a fifty percent tariff coming 2128 02:00:47.840 --> 02:00:50.760 on August first, depending on how those other countries react, 2129 02:00:51.239 --> 02:00:54.960 and thirty percent on EU and Mexico. And that's that 2130 02:00:55.079 --> 02:00:57.079 one's I think, probably the most well known that we've 2131 02:00:57.119 --> 02:01:00.199 got hanging out there, although with Mexico some of the 2132 02:01:00.319 --> 02:01:03.199 USMCA compliant goods might sneak out of that. And then 2133 02:01:03.279 --> 02:01:05.960 on again twenty five to thirty five percent on Canada, Japan, 2134 02:01:06.039 --> 02:01:08.640 South Korea, and a few more so August first, that's 2135 02:01:08.680 --> 02:01:09.840 the we're playing chicken right now. 2136 02:01:09.880 --> 02:01:11.960 We'll see who's going to swerve here in a week 2137 02:01:12.079 --> 02:01:12.199 or so. 2138 02:01:12.520 --> 02:01:14.800 So the goal of the tariff, like for example, copper, 2139 02:01:14.920 --> 02:01:17.880 we buy the copper right, we need it here. We 2140 02:01:17.920 --> 02:01:20.399 don't have a giant copper mind where we're manufacturing our own. 2141 02:01:20.520 --> 02:01:24.239 So there is an idea to re shore American copper production. 2142 02:01:24.560 --> 02:01:28.800 It's just to teariff the country that we're buying it from, correct, Yeah. 2143 02:01:29.039 --> 02:01:30.880 The only way that we can if if we could 2144 02:01:30.920 --> 02:01:33.319 find something in our own dirt that did the same 2145 02:01:33.399 --> 02:01:35.680 thing that copper did, but you know, maybe even better 2146 02:01:35.720 --> 02:01:37.399 than we would do that instead. We wouldn't be talking 2147 02:01:37.399 --> 02:01:39.279 about terif we would throw it out here. But some 2148 02:01:39.479 --> 02:01:41.279 things we simply cannot produce at home. 2149 02:01:41.439 --> 02:01:43.840 Now, in so far as Chilean copper production, We're okay, 2150 02:01:43.880 --> 02:01:45.239 we can get it now. It's going to be fifty 2151 02:01:45.279 --> 02:01:47.960 percent more when the tariff goes in effect. What are 2152 02:01:48.000 --> 02:01:50.880 we asking from them that we would harm ourselves so 2153 02:01:51.039 --> 02:01:53.359 much because there is such a huge demand for copper. 2154 02:01:53.399 --> 02:01:57.159 Brian James, Well, we are simply asking we're asking them 2155 02:01:57.279 --> 02:01:59.560 to pay up. You want to do business here, and 2156 02:01:59.600 --> 02:02:02.319 we're in We're are kind of you know, uh taking 2157 02:02:02.359 --> 02:02:04.560 a flyer on this, thinking that we are such a 2158 02:02:04.640 --> 02:02:05.159 big market. 2159 02:02:05.199 --> 02:02:06.359 We're just throwing our weight around. 2160 02:02:06.640 --> 02:02:09.079 We are the United States is the largest market by far, 2161 02:02:09.279 --> 02:02:11.800 not even close to many many other markets that might 2162 02:02:11.880 --> 02:02:12.840 be buying these products. 2163 02:02:12.880 --> 02:02:14.840 And we're we're simply looking for a better deal. 2164 02:02:14.880 --> 02:02:16.479 It's really no different than we used to We used 2165 02:02:16.479 --> 02:02:18.319 to hear the stories about, uh, you kind of still 2166 02:02:18.359 --> 02:02:21.640 do about Walmart driving small mom and pop shops out 2167 02:02:21.680 --> 02:02:24.880 of business, uh, because they were looking for every to 2168 02:02:25.000 --> 02:02:27.880 save every possible penny they possibly could. They're the biggest, 2169 02:02:28.199 --> 02:02:30.159 you know, the biggest knife in the drawer, so they're 2170 02:02:30.199 --> 02:02:31.520 going to use their weight. That's the same thing the 2171 02:02:31.640 --> 02:02:33.600 United States is doing here across all these countries. 2172 02:02:34.319 --> 02:02:34.720 All right. 2173 02:02:35.079 --> 02:02:36.920 Well, another thing I saw in this report that you 2174 02:02:37.039 --> 02:02:39.560 provided to me some it looks like pretty good news 2175 02:02:39.640 --> 02:02:44.039 to me. Upbeat start to the earning season helped to 2176 02:02:44.159 --> 02:02:48.279 quell off these tariff fears. Around eighty three percent of 2177 02:02:48.319 --> 02:02:50.239 the S and P five hundred companies that are reported 2178 02:02:50.279 --> 02:02:55.359 earnings have exceeded expectations. That's pretty damn good, right there, Brian, he. 2179 02:02:55.600 --> 02:02:56.680 Is, we're on a good run. 2180 02:02:56.920 --> 02:02:59.239 And uh and this is uh, you know again, this 2181 02:02:59.359 --> 02:03:01.239 is what we're what we always talk about here is 2182 02:03:01.279 --> 02:03:03.319 what did the analyst think was going to happen versus 2183 02:03:03.439 --> 02:03:05.439 what did happen? And we talked about this last week 2184 02:03:05.560 --> 02:03:07.960 United with a handful of different companies, but this week 2185 02:03:08.000 --> 02:03:11.119 it's Alphabet, which owns Google and YouTube, stronger than first 2186 02:03:11.159 --> 02:03:13.520 quarter growth. On Thursday, Intel was up. So it was 2187 02:03:13.600 --> 02:03:16.359 a lot of technology stocks this week. And again those 2188 02:03:16.359 --> 02:03:18.600 are the ones that benefit a lot from Copper with 2189 02:03:18.680 --> 02:03:20.359 all the data houses and things that they have to 2190 02:03:20.399 --> 02:03:23.840 build out there. So we're just continuing this role of 2191 02:03:23.920 --> 02:03:26.640 companies being in a good spot and earning more than 2192 02:03:26.720 --> 02:03:28.680 that cost them to sell their products, which is the 2193 02:03:28.760 --> 02:03:31.600 core of everything we want to do, and so that's 2194 02:03:31.640 --> 02:03:33.199 a sign of a stable economy. 2195 02:03:33.479 --> 02:03:35.159 Inflation is currently. 2196 02:03:34.960 --> 02:03:37.119 Not an issue. I agree with President Trump there. It 2197 02:03:37.199 --> 02:03:39.479 is currently, as we're sitting here, not an issue. Some 2198 02:03:39.640 --> 02:03:41.479 of the decisions he would prefer that we make may 2199 02:03:41.760 --> 02:03:44.359 with regards to tariffs, as well as interest rate decisions 2200 02:03:44.399 --> 02:03:46.319 that he would very much like to see Fedchair Powell 2201 02:03:46.399 --> 02:03:49.399 put in place that could trigger inflation. Those are concerns 2202 02:03:49.439 --> 02:03:51.479 and the market is a little bit hesitant on that. 2203 02:03:51.600 --> 02:03:53.359 That's why we haven't seen it going through the roof. 2204 02:03:53.720 --> 02:03:56.159 It's up a little bit every day, which is good, 2205 02:03:56.199 --> 02:03:57.840 but at the same time, we haven't seen any huge 2206 02:03:57.840 --> 02:04:00.880 spikes that you might normally expect when we have such 2207 02:04:00.960 --> 02:04:02.279 positive earnings reports coming. 2208 02:04:02.119 --> 02:04:02.680 Out, all right. 2209 02:04:02.800 --> 02:04:06.680 Unlike copper, which is obviously a mandated necessary you know, 2210 02:04:06.840 --> 02:04:09.079 you can't live without a type of item given all 2211 02:04:09.119 --> 02:04:11.880 of the applications you put copper in. What is it 2212 02:04:11.960 --> 02:04:13.880 that we buy from the European Union that is a 2213 02:04:14.000 --> 02:04:16.920 must have item? Like copper? I mean, I understand lumber 2214 02:04:17.000 --> 02:04:19.600 coming from Canada that impacts housing. You gotta have lumber, 2215 02:04:19.840 --> 02:04:21.960 Gotta have copper for the pipes, gotta have copper for 2216 02:04:22.039 --> 02:04:25.680 the electrician, electritricity transmission lines, et cetera. You can't do 2217 02:04:25.800 --> 02:04:29.319 without it. Honestly, as much as I love Scotch, I 2218 02:04:29.439 --> 02:04:31.760 can do without it. If the price goes up too high, 2219 02:04:31.840 --> 02:04:35.720 I just won't buy it. So it's discretionary versus mandatories. 2220 02:04:35.720 --> 02:04:38.079 Where really the rubber hits the road, And what are 2221 02:04:38.119 --> 02:04:41.479 we getting from Europe that we consider mandatory or desperately needed. 2222 02:04:42.439 --> 02:04:44.760 Yeah, well, well, obviously, you know, Scotch's deliveries to the 2223 02:04:44.760 --> 02:04:47.520 West side of Cincinnati are a major major indicator that 2224 02:04:47.600 --> 02:04:49.840 we watch to see, you know, exactly what's. 2225 02:04:49.680 --> 02:04:51.680 Going on between our relationships there. 2226 02:04:51.760 --> 02:04:55.720 But now a lot of pharmaceuticals, medicinal products that's about 2227 02:04:55.720 --> 02:04:58.359 one hundred and twenty seven billion dollars last year, a 2228 02:04:58.439 --> 02:05:01.359 lot of nuclear equipment, boilers in things like that. And 2229 02:05:01.439 --> 02:05:05.159 then of course there are vehicles Mercedes BMW that there's 2230 02:05:05.159 --> 02:05:06.680 still plenty of those on the road over here. So 2231 02:05:06.760 --> 02:05:10.840 it's much more industrial types of things that's happened to 2232 02:05:10.880 --> 02:05:13.880 be based elsewhere. But again, pharmaceuticals are being the bigger one. 2233 02:05:13.920 --> 02:05:17.640 Think of companies like Sanofi and Bayar, and we know 2234 02:05:17.800 --> 02:05:19.800 we do not manufacture a lot of our own drugshare. 2235 02:05:19.840 --> 02:05:21.520 That's one of the things the current administration would like 2236 02:05:21.600 --> 02:05:21.760 us to. 2237 02:05:21.960 --> 02:05:25.079 Yeah, well, maybe we'll have some activity in that direction. 2238 02:05:25.600 --> 02:05:27.920 Let's Pauseibleh and Brian James back about picking the right 2239 02:05:28.039 --> 02:05:31.720 financial planner. He's biased in that regard being a financial planner. 2240 02:05:31.760 --> 02:05:33.680 Eight twenty five.

Got some rain, there's a floodwatch 2244 02:05:42.960 --> 02:05:44.720 and a fact that it ends at eleven this morning. 2245 02:05:44.840 --> 02:05:48.960 All the showers of storm possibilities end around too.

Chuck Ingram on fifty five 2263 02:06:34.439 --> 02:06:36.239 KR see E Talk station. 2264 02:06:38.319 --> 02:06:38.920 Eight twenty nine. 2265 02:06:38.960 --> 02:06:41.760 If if you got KRC Decalks Station one more segment 2266 02:06:41.920 --> 02:06:45.479 with Brian James from Ailworth Financial. A financial planner he is, 2267 02:06:45.600 --> 02:06:48.119 so let's talk about financial planning. It's really important to 2268 02:06:48.159 --> 02:06:50.159 have someone in your corner working on your side of 2269 02:06:50.199 --> 02:06:52.199 the table and not for somebody else when it comes 2270 02:06:52.239 --> 02:06:55.439 to financial planning. Isn't that a premier thing to think 2271 02:06:55.479 --> 02:06:57.439 about when you're looking for a financial planner? 2272 02:06:57.520 --> 02:07:00.199 Brian James, Well, yeah, and you're right, I am a 2273 02:07:00.239 --> 02:07:02.239 little bit biased here. There's a reason I chose to 2274 02:07:02.479 --> 02:07:05.279 get into this industry. And if the topic is what 2275 02:07:05.479 --> 02:07:07.399 we look for in a financial advisor, you want to 2276 02:07:07.439 --> 02:07:09.399 make sure that you're you're gonna learn something right. You 2277 02:07:09.439 --> 02:07:12.680 don't need the old approach, you know from twenty thirty 2278 02:07:12.720 --> 02:07:14.840 forty years ago, was somebody who can sell me some 2279 02:07:14.960 --> 02:07:17.199 kind of product. And I remember my dad and his 2280 02:07:17.399 --> 02:07:21.159 uncles and my uncles, uh trading these these these people 2281 02:07:21.239 --> 02:07:23.119 they knew, and it was always whoever got them the 2282 02:07:23.159 --> 02:07:25.279 most recent you know, good good hot stock tip. This 2283 02:07:25.359 --> 02:07:27.239 is in the eighties when there was really nothing more 2284 02:07:27.319 --> 02:07:29.000 than I want to throw money into something and watch 2285 02:07:29.039 --> 02:07:31.159 it grow. There wasn't a lot of thought of how 2286 02:07:31.199 --> 02:07:33.039 do I, how do I plan for taxes? How do 2287 02:07:33.159 --> 02:07:35.119 I you know, put all the puzzle pieces together. So 2288 02:07:35.520 --> 02:07:37.199 you want to make sure you're talking to somebody who 2289 02:07:37.359 --> 02:07:39.880 is who is going to teach you something, who's gonna 2290 02:07:39.880 --> 02:07:42.159 look at your situation and show it to you from 2291 02:07:42.199 --> 02:07:44.039 a different point of view, so that you can think 2292 02:07:44.039 --> 02:07:45.479 about things that you hadn't thought about before. 2293 02:07:45.520 --> 02:07:48.279 That's really the key, okay, And I think one of 2294 02:07:48.319 --> 02:07:50.880 the things that's always recommended by financial planners is get 2295 02:07:50.880 --> 02:07:53.359 a handle on what you spend money on throughout the year. 2296 02:07:53.800 --> 02:07:56.039 That's actually become a lot easier because you know, I'll 2297 02:07:56.079 --> 02:07:59.279 get for example, from my MasterCard at the end of 2298 02:07:59.319 --> 02:08:03.119 the year breakdown month to month and categories about everything 2299 02:08:03.239 --> 02:08:07.359 that I use my credit card for. It's very eye opening, 2300 02:08:07.439 --> 02:08:09.239 but it makes it really easy to figure out how 2301 02:08:09.319 --> 02:08:11.319 much you charge in a year, and that you can 2302 02:08:11.359 --> 02:08:14.000 apply to your once and your what your needs might 2303 02:08:14.039 --> 02:08:14.880 be in retirement. 2304 02:08:15.319 --> 02:08:16.760 Yeah, that could become one of your goals, and that 2305 02:08:16.920 --> 02:08:18.520 should be one of your goals. Obviously, we all have 2306 02:08:18.600 --> 02:08:20.399 our own ships. We need to keep a float. That's 2307 02:08:20.399 --> 02:08:24.079 where everything starts. And once you've got a handle on 2308 02:08:24.199 --> 02:08:26.640 what your current cash flow is and you kind of 2309 02:08:26.720 --> 02:08:28.520 nailed it if you're using credit cards, I think that's 2310 02:08:28.520 --> 02:08:30.159 a great idea. By the way, if you're somebody who's 2311 02:08:30.159 --> 02:08:33.359 responsible with credit cards, then get your rewards, pick something 2312 02:08:33.399 --> 02:08:35.640 that works for you, and then use the tools that 2313 02:08:35.720 --> 02:08:38.159 the credit card companies provide. But not everybody looks at 2314 02:08:38.199 --> 02:08:41.079 They're buried in that website somewhere. Every time you swipe 2315 02:08:41.119 --> 02:08:43.680 that card, whatever that is is going to get categorized 2316 02:08:43.680 --> 02:08:46.039 as a restaurant, as a gas station, as whatever, So 2317 02:08:46.119 --> 02:08:48.119 you'll know exactly what it costs you just to keep 2318 02:08:48.159 --> 02:08:50.399 that ship afloat. Then, in addition to that, there are 2319 02:08:50.439 --> 02:08:52.560 other things you're doing. You've got a mortgage, you've got 2320 02:08:52.600 --> 02:08:54.920 some other things. There are places like Duke that don't 2321 02:08:55.000 --> 02:08:56.680 allow you to use your credit card. You're going to 2322 02:08:56.760 --> 02:08:58.880 look at your checking account for that. But that'll give 2323 02:08:58.920 --> 02:09:01.680 you your basic, your baseline of here's how much an 2324 02:09:01.760 --> 02:09:04.119 income we need to just keep the ship afloat. 2325 02:09:04.159 --> 02:09:05.119 On top of that, you can. 2326 02:09:05.079 --> 02:09:07.800 Layer the things that you'll want to do in retirement 2327 02:09:07.840 --> 02:09:10.039 because you have more time. Perhaps that's more travel, or 2328 02:09:10.079 --> 02:09:12.399 maybe it's supporting the kids, grandkids, so on and so forth. 2329 02:09:12.960 --> 02:09:16.359 All right, and obviously things change over time. You hopefully 2330 02:09:16.600 --> 02:09:18.920 maybe once you reach retirement, don't have a mortgage that 2331 02:09:18.960 --> 02:09:19.640 you have to pay for. 2332 02:09:20.319 --> 02:09:21.279 Well, give me a decision. 2333 02:09:21.319 --> 02:09:23.439 Right, if you're somebody who's you've got one of those 2334 02:09:23.760 --> 02:09:26.319 two and a half three percent mortgages, then you may 2335 02:09:26.399 --> 02:09:28.119 want to maintain them. Matter of fact, I would advise 2336 02:09:28.199 --> 02:09:30.279 maintaining that, just make the cash flow work for you 2337 02:09:30.680 --> 02:09:32.720 and some people a lot of people hesitate on that 2338 02:09:33.079 --> 02:09:35.279 because we kind of get in our heads that well, 2339 02:09:35.359 --> 02:09:37.119 someone else has to give me money so that I 2340 02:09:37.159 --> 02:09:39.760 can survive. Therefore, my entire budget has to be squished 2341 02:09:39.760 --> 02:09:42.079 into my Social Security check. Meanwhile, I'm going to ignore 2342 02:09:42.079 --> 02:09:43.880 the two million dollar nest egg that I've set aside. 2343 02:09:44.439 --> 02:09:45.520 Rather than paying off the. 2344 02:09:45.520 --> 02:09:48.000 Mortgage in a lump, which would probably cost you a 2345 02:09:48.079 --> 02:09:50.680 good amount of taxes by liquidating the resources you would 2346 02:09:50.680 --> 02:09:53.279 need to do that, then simply start taking at least 2347 02:09:53.319 --> 02:09:55.039 that mortgage payment out. Just take it out on a 2348 02:09:55.079 --> 02:09:57.720 monthly basis, five days before the mortgage payment is due. 2349 02:09:57.880 --> 02:09:59.880 All you've done is build a money machine. And then again, 2350 02:10:00.000 --> 02:10:01.159 this is if you've got one of those two and 2351 02:10:01.199 --> 02:10:03.880 a half three percent mortgages, then maybe needs another five 2352 02:10:03.960 --> 02:10:06.439 to ten years to get paid off. Now a different 2353 02:10:06.479 --> 02:10:08.479 situation if you just moved somewhere in the last three 2354 02:10:08.520 --> 02:10:10.920 four years, now you've got a twenty five years left 2355 02:10:10.960 --> 02:10:13.760 on a six percent mortgage, that's a different discussion. But again, 2356 02:10:13.840 --> 02:10:15.640 this is where a financial advisor can help you see 2357 02:10:16.000 --> 02:10:17.880 the impact of paying it all off in a lump, 2358 02:10:18.199 --> 02:10:21.479 or perhaps meeting the middle ground and paying a little 2359 02:10:21.520 --> 02:10:24.119 more so that it's only got seven years versus fifteen 2360 02:10:24.239 --> 02:10:24.760 or something like that. 2361 02:10:25.039 --> 02:10:27.439 Fair enough, And I know one of the points in 2362 02:10:27.560 --> 02:10:31.000 the article about choosing a financial planner, and this person's 2363 02:10:31.119 --> 02:10:34.560 initial is walking through the process of arranging with the 2364 02:10:34.600 --> 02:10:39.880 financial planner. Paragraph caption. Advisors aren't just for rich people. 2365 02:10:40.439 --> 02:10:43.199 You will meet with people just starting out in their careers, 2366 02:10:43.279 --> 02:10:45.600 but they don't have a giant stack of two hundred 2367 02:10:45.640 --> 02:10:47.560 thousand dollars that they're ready to invest. 2368 02:10:47.640 --> 02:10:50.920 Correct, Brian, Absolutely, we'll talk to anybody because the education 2369 02:10:51.039 --> 02:10:52.960 part of that's frankly what I enjoy the most. That 2370 02:10:53.319 --> 02:10:57.920 doesn't mean we necessarily have to have a formalized relationships necessarily, 2371 02:10:58.000 --> 02:10:59.800 but a lot of times all people really need is 2372 02:10:59.840 --> 02:11:03.279 to some basic understanding. And I'll have many meetings with 2373 02:11:03.399 --> 02:11:06.680 my client's kids who are just getting started, and they hit, 2374 02:11:07.199 --> 02:11:09.760 you know, they hit on the big topics of I'm 2375 02:11:09.760 --> 02:11:11.359 putting money in my four one k am I putting 2376 02:11:11.399 --> 02:11:13.800 in enough? How do I decide whether to put you know, 2377 02:11:13.880 --> 02:11:16.560 money on the traditional side versus the roth side. And 2378 02:11:16.680 --> 02:11:18.960 should I pay off this mortgage? There is a notion 2379 02:11:19.039 --> 02:11:20.800 that I shouldn't have any debt. All debt is evil. 2380 02:11:20.800 --> 02:11:22.680 Should I pay off this mortgage? Should I spend you know, 2381 02:11:22.960 --> 02:11:25.199 twenty years not saving anything because I want to get 2382 02:11:25.239 --> 02:11:25.800 this house paid off? 2383 02:11:25.840 --> 02:11:26.720 The answer to that is a hard no. 2384 02:11:26.800 --> 02:11:28.840 We got to do a little bit of everything, but yes, 2385 02:11:29.159 --> 02:11:31.439 some of these things are basic just understanding what is 2386 02:11:31.520 --> 02:11:33.880 the impact of long term savings and what should I 2387 02:11:33.960 --> 02:11:35.840 expect out of the market in terms of ups and downs. 2388 02:11:35.880 --> 02:11:38.079 If I can arm somebody with that and they go 2389 02:11:38.199 --> 02:11:39.920 off for thirty years, they'll come back with a much 2390 02:11:39.920 --> 02:11:41.079 bigger puzzle for me to solve. 2391 02:11:41.319 --> 02:11:44.159 Yeah, and I know we've had this conversation before. Going 2392 02:11:44.199 --> 02:11:46.159 back to the mortgage. Yeah, I did have a like 2393 02:11:46.760 --> 02:11:49.439 like three percent mortgage, but ended up paying extra each 2394 02:11:49.479 --> 02:11:52.840 month to get it paid off. I hate debt, and 2395 02:11:52.960 --> 02:11:54.960 a mortgage to me is just one more debt I 2396 02:11:55.039 --> 02:11:57.279 owe somebody money. I don't like being in that position. 2397 02:11:57.359 --> 02:11:59.079 I know I could have made more in the market 2398 02:11:59.159 --> 02:12:00.600 had I left the market. I could like to you 2399 02:12:00.720 --> 02:12:03.159 guys to invest or something more than the three percent 2400 02:12:03.199 --> 02:12:05.560 that I'm being charge in interest. But just from a 2401 02:12:05.640 --> 02:12:08.760 comfort standpoint, I'm that weird guy that I just I 2402 02:12:08.840 --> 02:12:11.840 can't abide owing someone money man now, And. 2403 02:12:11.840 --> 02:12:13.439 There's a I wouldn't call that weird. That's just it's 2404 02:12:13.479 --> 02:12:15.199 just a point of view, and there's nothing wrong with it. 2405 02:12:15.319 --> 02:12:17.479 I also happen to know that you have a financial 2406 02:12:17.479 --> 02:12:19.399 advisor behind you, and I know you went through the 2407 02:12:19.520 --> 02:12:21.800 process of Okay, if we pay it off sooner the 2408 02:12:21.880 --> 02:12:22.680 mortgage goes away. 2409 02:12:22.760 --> 02:12:23.720 Sooner in our in our. 2410 02:12:23.680 --> 02:12:26.520 Overall assets look like this versus if we if we 2411 02:12:26.560 --> 02:12:29.079 simply let it all go and pay off the mortgage 2412 02:12:29.439 --> 02:12:31.640 as minimally as possible, looks like that, And then you 2413 02:12:31.720 --> 02:12:34.319 made an educated decision that you were more comfortable with 2414 02:12:34.800 --> 02:12:36.960 not having the mortgage in place. And that is perfectly 2415 02:12:37.079 --> 02:12:39.000 that is a perfectly rational way to do it. It's 2416 02:12:39.079 --> 02:12:41.239 not always about what what's the biggest number that falls 2417 02:12:41.239 --> 02:12:42.359 out of the bottom of the spreadsheet. 2418 02:12:42.479 --> 02:12:43.960 Well, and the smartest thing you can do from a 2419 02:12:44.000 --> 02:12:48.079 financial standing standing plan point, standing our financial planning standpoint, 2420 02:12:48.159 --> 02:12:52.079 Brian out kick your coverage with your choice of spouse. 2421 02:12:52.720 --> 02:12:55.439 That is that I've done that as well myself, and yeah, 2422 02:12:55.479 --> 02:12:58.359 that is a huge impact.

So let's talk about summertime. It's obviously been 2466 02:14:47.640 --> 02:14:51.079 very rainy out there. I have actually it's usually two dogs. 2467 02:14:51.159 --> 02:14:54.359 We have our dog and our grandpuppy, Dohlia. She spends 2468 02:14:54.439 --> 02:14:56.359 most of the every day at our house. So I 2469 02:14:56.439 --> 02:14:58.560 got animals coming in and out in with the rain. 2470 02:14:59.640 --> 02:15:03.119 On the things that you point out, not only do 2471 02:15:03.159 --> 02:15:05.279 they have muddy feet, but they can kind of give 2472 02:15:05.359 --> 02:15:07.319 off a sort of a funky odor when they come 2473 02:15:07.399 --> 02:15:09.119 in back from outside in the rain. 2474 02:15:09.039 --> 02:15:09.439 And the heat. 2475 02:15:11.760 --> 02:15:15.359 Yeah, that's their protection so that they're not so hot 2476 02:15:15.720 --> 02:15:19.159 or in the winter not so cold. But yeah, it's 2477 02:15:19.279 --> 02:15:22.760 to us it smells, and to us we want to 2478 02:15:22.800 --> 02:15:25.800 give them a bath, and too many baths dry out 2479 02:15:25.840 --> 02:15:30.399 their skins, so we have a better solution. It's called Magic. 2480 02:15:31.439 --> 02:15:35.159 It's actually a product of odorative product of water and 2481 02:15:35.279 --> 02:15:39.359 essential oils. Ideally, spray your hands with it and you 2482 02:15:39.520 --> 02:15:43.159 pet your dog with it. Yeah, they're not spraying them specifically. 2483 02:15:43.239 --> 02:15:45.640 You could, but sometimes I don't like that spray sounds. 2484 02:15:47.000 --> 02:15:50.239 What it does is absorb those smells coming off your dog, 2485 02:15:50.319 --> 02:15:54.199 and it's going to last for oh, depending on how 2486 02:15:54.279 --> 02:15:56.279 much you put on a week, maybe two weeks. 2487 02:15:56.560 --> 02:15:57.560 Yeah, and you don't have. 2488 02:15:57.640 --> 02:16:00.279 To bathe them. They're not going to get that mel 2489 02:16:00.439 --> 02:16:03.239 on their furniture when they jump up to love on 2490 02:16:03.359 --> 02:16:07.079 you and your lap. It's really an amazing product on 2491 02:16:07.159 --> 02:16:09.920 how it works that way, but it gets rid of 2492 02:16:10.000 --> 02:16:12.199 lots of other odors too, like the food. 2493 02:16:12.000 --> 02:16:14.279 Odors that the magic is.

That dog, 2513 02:17:10.520 --> 02:17:12.719 I don't know what in the hell liam rolled around it, 2514 02:17:12.920 --> 02:17:16.280 but it reaked. It must have been something dead or 2515 02:17:16.520 --> 02:17:20.680 some kind of unknown beast feces out there. But we 2516 02:17:20.920 --> 02:17:22.239 washed him, you know, we gave him a back, and 2517 02:17:22.319 --> 02:17:25.120 you still smelled it. So I put that concentrate on 2518 02:17:25.239 --> 02:17:27.600 a rag and I rubbed it all over his head 2519 02:17:27.719 --> 02:17:29.000 and it disappeared instantly. 2520 02:17:32.120 --> 02:17:34.879 And that's what it does. It goes after the source. 2521 02:17:35.600 --> 02:17:38.559 So it's a different product than the magic Yeah, still 2522 02:17:38.719 --> 02:17:42.399 water in the central oils, but a different combination. And 2523 02:17:42.559 --> 02:17:46.360 it needs to be placed on, sprayed, applied just like 2524 02:17:46.440 --> 02:17:50.440 you did on a ragr wash cloth, directly to the 2525 02:17:50.559 --> 02:17:53.639 source of the odor, and it breaks it down and 2526 02:17:53.879 --> 02:17:56.360 stops it from ever smelling again. It just kind of 2527 02:17:56.559 --> 02:18:00.799 changes the composition and it won't it won't come back 2528 02:18:01.000 --> 02:18:02.920 unless he rolls in that again. 2529 02:18:03.319 --> 02:18:07.280 Oh god, I hope not about that. It's a flashback 2530 02:18:07.360 --> 02:18:10.000 kind of moment here because it was just, oh, it's awful. 2531 02:18:10.040 --> 02:18:13.159 I've never well anyway, don't beat a dead horse, Thomas. 2532 02:18:13.239 --> 02:18:13.799 But it worked. 2533 02:18:13.840 --> 02:18:17.000 I guess that's a fundamental point, nasty. And I use 2534 02:18:17.079 --> 02:18:18.879 skunk spray as an example all the time because I've 2535 02:18:18.920 --> 02:18:21.680 had listeners email me on that one. And for skunk 2536 02:18:21.760 --> 02:18:24.200 you use which product if your dog comes home smell 2537 02:18:24.360 --> 02:18:25.399 like a got hit with a skunk? 2538 02:18:26.799 --> 02:18:31.280 That same one that eliminator concentrate. The eliminator comes in, 2539 02:18:31.360 --> 02:18:33.840 are ready to use too where we already mixed it. 2540 02:18:34.000 --> 02:18:36.600 So it's got a sprayer on the bottle, but then 2541 02:18:36.639 --> 02:18:40.760 it comes and a concentrate where you can eat to refill. Well, 2542 02:18:40.799 --> 02:18:43.520 you can refill any sized spray bottle actually true. So 2543 02:18:43.639 --> 02:18:46.440 it's four ounces to a gallon of water, so that 2544 02:18:46.440 --> 02:18:48.440 it's going to last quite a long time. 2545 02:18:48.600 --> 02:18:50.120 It'll last a while well. 2546 02:18:50.159 --> 02:18:51.879 And then the other thing people have a problems with 2547 02:18:52.079 --> 02:18:53.639 with all the rain, Like I you've got a moist 2548 02:18:53.719 --> 02:18:56.559 basement mold and you got a problem for the mold 2549 02:18:56.840 --> 02:19:01.440 or a product for the mold too. We have total four. 2550 02:19:01.399 --> 02:19:05.319 Separate products and that's why our range of odors is 2551 02:19:05.399 --> 02:19:09.280 so wide that we can actually eliminate. We have two 2552 02:19:09.399 --> 02:19:13.280 products for the mold. One. They're both the same chemical 2553 02:19:13.440 --> 02:19:17.280 chlorine dioxide, which isn't natural, but it's very safe. The 2554 02:19:17.360 --> 02:19:21.879 way our products are packaged and the instructions, I guess 2555 02:19:21.920 --> 02:19:26.479 when you follow the instructions, just like everything else. But 2556 02:19:26.680 --> 02:19:30.000 the one puts a gas in the air and you 2557 02:19:30.120 --> 02:19:33.120 put it behind a fan. It's a safe gas. It's invisible. 2558 02:19:33.680 --> 02:19:35.680 It smells a little bit like chlorine. 2559 02:19:35.840 --> 02:19:39.399 Yeah, like walking into anadatorium, a little bit, just that 2560 02:19:39.520 --> 02:19:42.639 background in the background, you'll have that little tiny chlorine smell. 2561 02:19:44.280 --> 02:19:47.680 Yeah, and it actually is chlorine, but with an extra 2562 02:19:47.840 --> 02:19:52.079 oxygen molecule added, which is why it's so super at 2563 02:19:52.920 --> 02:19:57.440 getting rid of the odors. That extra oxygen and it 2564 02:19:57.760 --> 02:20:02.399 oxidizes those things. So it oxidizes the mold spores in 2565 02:20:02.479 --> 02:20:06.760 the air, It oxidizes cigarette smoke smell, attar and nicotine 2566 02:20:07.159 --> 02:20:09.440 that maybe somebody smoked in their house for five or 2567 02:20:09.479 --> 02:20:11.799 twenty five years. It's going to get rid of that 2568 02:20:11.799 --> 02:20:15.319 because again it's going after the source of the odor. 2569 02:20:15.959 --> 02:20:19.440 Yeah, and actually and the second one go ahead. 2570 02:20:19.479 --> 02:20:20.760 Oh, I was going to say, I had a little 2571 02:20:20.760 --> 02:20:24.719 battery operated fan and I can't remember under what circumstances, 2572 02:20:24.799 --> 02:20:27.479 but I put the small package of the AQM you're 2573 02:20:27.479 --> 02:20:32.079 talking about that releases the gas in a car because 2574 02:20:32.120 --> 02:20:34.799 the inside of the car smoke, and so just closed 2575 02:20:34.840 --> 02:20:37.079 all the windows up, had a little tiny battery operated 2576 02:20:37.120 --> 02:20:39.079 fan that last, I mean, nothing goes for twelve hours 2577 02:20:39.200 --> 02:20:41.120 or more, and so I just attached it to that 2578 02:20:41.200 --> 02:20:43.920 and let it sit for a whole day and eliminated 2579 02:20:43.920 --> 02:20:46.040 everything in that car. Whatever the odors were, it was gone. 2580 02:20:46.159 --> 02:20:48.559 So that's just one way you can use that. So 2581 02:20:48.920 --> 02:20:51.440 you got mold, you got mildew, you got coup of 2582 02:20:51.520 --> 02:20:53.440 human odors, pet oders, every kind of odor you can 2583 02:20:53.479 --> 02:20:55.079 come up with as a product on your website for 2584 02:20:55.159 --> 02:20:57.920 that and looks like there's a great time to buy 2585 02:20:57.959 --> 02:20:59.959 it because you've got a discount going on right now. 2586 02:21:01.760 --> 02:21:04.799 We do.

The podcast Page uh started out this morning 2646 02:23:55.159 --> 02:23:57.799 I believe it six o'clock hour, talking about the new 2647 02:23:57.840 --> 02:24:06.600 revelations the Russian collusion hoax that was manufactured by the 2648 02:24:07.040 --> 02:24:10.360 Obama administration after being told by their experts in the 2649 02:24:10.440 --> 02:24:13.000 Department of Justice and or FBI whoever that was looking 2650 02:24:13.040 --> 02:24:16.120 into this, that there was no involvement with the Russians 2651 02:24:16.200 --> 02:24:20.799 going into the twenty sixteen election, none period. Obama didn't 2652 02:24:20.840 --> 02:24:24.040 like that, so he ordered a new directive, one that 2653 02:24:24.239 --> 02:24:27.239 Well concluded that the Russians were somehow involved with Donald Trump, 2654 02:24:27.280 --> 02:24:29.559 and that of course led to four years of investigations 2655 02:24:29.559 --> 02:24:32.280 in Russia, Russia, Russia, Russia, and now we come to 2656 02:24:32.319 --> 02:24:34.799 find out it was all a lie, a lie built 2657 02:24:34.920 --> 02:24:38.680 on by the Biden administration when he was reelected, so 2658 02:24:38.840 --> 02:24:42.399 one that they claim exists until this day, some referring 2659 02:24:42.440 --> 02:24:46.319 to it as an attempted coup, undermining Donald Trump's authority, 2660 02:24:46.399 --> 02:24:48.440 undermining the will of the American people. Some people are 2661 02:24:48.520 --> 02:24:54.000 thoroughly convinced that the twenty twenty election was rigged. When 2662 02:24:54.159 --> 02:24:56.559 you can make that argument, and I understand the reasons why. 2663 02:24:57.799 --> 02:25:00.719 But now we have former National Security Advisor Michael Flynn 2664 02:25:00.799 --> 02:25:04.120 calling on the Department of Justice to confiscate the passport 2665 02:25:04.200 --> 02:25:09.440 a former President Barack Obama, Yes, Barack Obama's passport Flynn 2666 02:25:09.520 --> 02:25:12.399 Keith figuring the Trump administration made this request after this 2667 02:25:12.600 --> 02:25:16.360 newly declassified presidential briefing document show how the Obama well 2668 02:25:16.479 --> 02:25:19.639 was involved directly with the Trump Russia collusion narrative built 2669 02:25:19.920 --> 02:25:23.159 entirely on lies created by Hillary Clinton, the DNC, the 2670 02:25:23.239 --> 02:25:27.600 Steele dossier, for example, documents released by the Director of 2671 02:25:27.680 --> 02:25:30.559 National Intelligence Telsea Gabbett on Friday Show, Obama knew the 2672 02:25:30.639 --> 02:25:32.840 Russian collusion narrative was a hoax and was involved in 2673 02:25:32.959 --> 02:25:38.799 manufacturing and politicizing the intelligence to create the narrative. Flynn 2674 02:25:38.920 --> 02:25:41.479 also targeted by the Obama administration during the Russia Collusion, 2675 02:25:41.520 --> 02:25:46.239 which Hunt was on with Steve Bannon, noted Conservative to 2676 02:25:46.360 --> 02:25:50.799 discuss these documents. Flynn also suggested that other officials from 2677 02:25:50.799 --> 02:25:53.719 the NSA, FBI, and CIA may have been involved in 2678 02:25:53.840 --> 02:25:56.680 this what he calls coup attempt and could face prosecution. 2679 02:25:57.639 --> 02:26:01.040 And that's exactly what many are calling for now, prosecution 2680 02:26:02.399 --> 02:26:05.879 for the wrongdoings they committed and the lies that they 2681 02:26:06.000 --> 02:26:11.000 created and manufactured and sold in the American public. Complicit was, 2682 02:26:11.200 --> 02:26:18.079 of course, your legacy mainstream media in parroting this narrative 2683 02:26:18.200 --> 02:26:22.000 over and over again, layer upon layer upon layer of coruction. Yeah, 2684 02:26:22.000 --> 02:26:24.040 you don't even get over to like, for example, the 2685 02:26:24.159 --> 02:26:29.319 lies that were told about Hunter Biden's laptop. Yeah, lies 2686 02:26:29.600 --> 02:26:34.040 outright lies. They sold that bill of goods.
