Speaker 1: Five O five A thirty five k r C, the
Speaker 1: talk station.
Speaker 2: SIS s sh a vacation.
Speaker 3: You're fired, You're fired, and lots of people falling into
Speaker 3: that category lately under the new administration.
Speaker 1: Happy Friday, Eve, slash Thursday.
Speaker 3: Bryan Thomas right here, glad to be and always welcoming
Speaker 3: phone calls. Got some time to talk. If you have
Speaker 3: anything you want to talk about, feel free to give
Speaker 3: me a shout five one, three, seven, nine, fifty five hundred,
Speaker 3: eight hundred eighty two three talk and pound five fifty
Speaker 3: if you have an AT and T phone and coming
Speaker 3: up with the fifty five Caresey Morning Shore. Thank you
Speaker 3: executive producer Joe Strecker for lining up the guests. Great
Speaker 3: lineup this morning. Ken Blackwell, love that man. Ken Blackwell
Speaker 3: is going to return to the program at six point
Speaker 3: thirty and get his thoughts on Trump's first few days.
Speaker 3: Lots of activity and lots of talk about. Of course,
Speaker 3: on immigration, things are really lighting up. Lots of criminals
Speaker 3: being arrested and some absolutely heinous and horrific crimes many
Speaker 3: of these illegal immigrants have committed, and certainly justifying rounding
Speaker 3: at least them up. They all are quality, are they
Speaker 3: all subject to deportation, all people who have entered illegally,
Speaker 3: and yes they're entitled to a hearing in many cases
Speaker 3: not so much anymore. We'll talk about that as well.
Speaker 3: But in the final analysis, you've got child rapists out there.
Speaker 1: I'm not kidding you.
Speaker 3: I just saw a list of the criminals that they
Speaker 3: rounded up north of three hundred just yesterday, and among
Speaker 3: them multitudes, I mean, just all kinds of people who
Speaker 3: have committed sexual crimes against children. And yet there are
Speaker 3: still Democrats out there in these blue cities fighting it
Speaker 3: and saying they're not going to cooperate with ice that
Speaker 3: may get them in trouble. We'll talk about that as
Speaker 3: well this morning.
Speaker 1: Anyway.
Speaker 3: Dave Williams Taxpayer Protection Alliance on the heels of Ken
Speaker 3: Blackwell is seven five. Trump leaving the World Health Organization yay.
Speaker 3: And the Paris Accords yay. Trump's big first day. And
Speaker 3: the need to extend the Trump tax cuts as soon
Speaker 3: as possible. Yeah, it's going to cause economic chaos of
Speaker 3: those things don't get renewed or extended. Americans for Prosperities
Speaker 3: Donovan and Eil on Ohio Energy Policy doing a partnership
Speaker 3: with the Buckeye Institute, good efforts on the behalf of
Speaker 3: Americans for prosperity. We get a rundown from Donovan at
Speaker 3: seven thirty, and of course fast forward to eight thirty.
Speaker 3: Love talking to Jay Raytle. If I heard media aviation
Speaker 3: expert got airlines rolling out seats that can recline without
Speaker 3: reducing space for the person behind it. Oh, what a
Speaker 3: welcome change that'll be. I don't know if you've flown
Speaker 3: very much, but it's almost as soon as the plane
Speaker 3: takes off, that seat in front he ends up getting reclined.
Speaker 4: Yeah, and it.
Speaker 3: Takes away from the knee space. Resident Trump decides to
Speaker 3: replace the head of the TSA lask Airline, says that
Speaker 3: thanks to their employees in a big way, United Delta
Speaker 3: and Boeing donated to the Trump inauguralal fun how about
Speaker 3: that crew suspended after landing on the wrong runway.
Speaker 1: Whoops?
Speaker 3: And then, of course we always end up with hub delays,
Speaker 3: and we saw massive, massive numbers of flights canceled because
Speaker 3: of the what they're calling blizzard that's kind of went
Speaker 3: through Texas and the Southern States the other day. Still
Speaker 3: struggling with cold temperatures down there and they have no
Speaker 3: snow equipment. Someone reported on what's going on in Houston.
Speaker 3: You know they don't have anything. They've got to import
Speaker 3: or ship down some snowplowing equipment from Dallas. I guess
Speaker 3: gets snow on a more frequent basis than Houston. Hey,
Speaker 3: Houston probably one of the hottest cities I've ever been to.
Speaker 3: We had a client in Houston. We used to have
Speaker 3: to go there fairly regularly. You don't want to be
Speaker 3: in Houston in the middle of summer, But here we are,
Speaker 3: blizzard in Houston.
Speaker 1: Is it global warming anymore?
Speaker 3: We have to deal with these things because global warming,
Speaker 3: and they don't call it anymore. They call it climate change,
Speaker 3: which conveniently allows everybody in the green movement to call
Speaker 3: every weather event climate change. Okay, and I just wanted
Speaker 3: to bring this up. I'm troubled by this.
Speaker 1: This add this to the list.
Speaker 3: Every Senate Democrat voted yesterday afternoon against invoking cloture on
Speaker 3: legislation requiring the babies who survived botched abortions receive medical care.
Speaker 3: You have to pass cloture to get the bill advanced,
Speaker 3: to have an actual vote on the Senate for it.
Speaker 3: They wouldn't even advance it, so they had, but this
Speaker 3: obviously reflects the position of the Democrats, which I think
Speaker 3: is absolutely unsupportable. And I don't care where you are
Speaker 3: on abortion. It doesn't matter. The baby survived the botched abortion.
Speaker 3: The baby has been born, it's still alive. And we've
Speaker 3: heard stories about this, and I feel fairly confident this
Speaker 3: does not happen very often. I don't know, but there
Speaker 3: have been widely circulated and reported stories about this type
Speaker 3: of thing happening. It was the Born Alive Abortion Survivors
Speaker 3: Protection Act James Langford, Republican from Oklahoma introduced. It requires
Speaker 3: that healthcare practitioners provide quote same degree of professional skill,
Speaker 3: care and diligence close quote for a child surviving a
Speaker 3: botched abortion as they would for a child during a
Speaker 3: routine childbirth.
Speaker 1: Senate fifty two to forty.
Speaker 3: Seven against advancing, and therefore found to overcome the sixty
Speaker 3: vote filibuster threshold. Langford said, yesterday, my Democratic colleague has
Speaker 3: been an hour on the floor saying that a child
Speaker 3: who survives a botch abortion should die. I disagree. This
Speaker 3: is not just an academic issue, he said, it's real.
Speaker 3: It's in fantaside in fantaside is already illegal, but it
Speaker 3: is still allowed. Is a tiny little loophole that if
Speaker 3: an abortion is botched, everyone can just back away and
Speaker 3: watch the child die. They do not have to give
Speaker 3: that child medical care. Set of Majority leader John Thune
Speaker 3: said the Democrats would vote against that.
Speaker 1: He predicted.
Speaker 3: He said, they will vote against protecting for a living,
Speaker 3: breathing newborn baby because the child's been born alive after
Speaker 3: an attempt at abortion. They're afraid if they recognize the
Speaker 3: humanity of a living, breathing born baby in an abortion clinic,
Speaker 3: they might end up pointing to the humanity of the
Speaker 3: unborn baby in the abortion clinic. Now, I don't think
Speaker 3: they would. They so profoundly wed to the idea that
Speaker 3: abortion is a good, great thing that no, I don't
Speaker 3: know that they would necessarily do that. They're immune to
Speaker 3: the challenges of the argument over humanity. Chuckie Schumer called
Speaker 3: the Born Alive Bill as pernicious as they come. In
Speaker 3: his words, it attacks women's healthcare. You know, I read
Speaker 3: those words when I'm thinking of the live baby there,
Speaker 3: separate from mom living outside the womb. It attacks women's
Speaker 3: healthcare using false narratives and outright fear mongering and adds
Speaker 3: more legal risks for doctors on something that's already illegal. Well,
Speaker 3: apparently it's not illegal to let the baby just pass
Speaker 3: on without any medical assistance. Anyway, This bill passed the
Speaker 3: House last last year or twenty twenty three, rather only
Speaker 3: one Democrat voted for in the House.
Speaker 1: But the point on this now just put in a sense.
Speaker 3: Let's say the woman getting any abortion in giving birth
Speaker 3: to a live baby because the abortion wasn't successful, let's
Speaker 3: say she was an illegal immigrant. Doesn't have to be
Speaker 3: that scenario. I'm just piling on a little bit by
Speaker 3: making it this weird phenomenon. The Democrats are arguing, yes profoundly,
Speaker 3: and I don't know that they I think they have
Speaker 3: the better side of the argument. If you're born in
Speaker 3: the United States, you are a US citizen. The anchor
Speaker 3: baby argument, right, that would be a US citizen live, yes, breathing, yes,
Speaker 3: struggling medically. Of course, we're talking about a situation where
Speaker 3: there was a boxed abortion. But moving away from that scenario,
Speaker 3: any baby born in the United States is subject to
Speaker 3: the rights under the Constitution. A human being is laying there.
Speaker 3: The mere fact that they're finally out of of the womb,
Speaker 3: so you get away from these arguments about women's healthcare,
Speaker 3: and you know, we're all I think most of my
Speaker 3: listening audience is probably against late term abortions, and me
Speaker 3: profoundly so because you know, as I mentioned many times,
Speaker 3: both of my children were born at eight months, done
Speaker 3: and over with the uh the process. I wore out both.
Speaker 1: Of them, fully.
Speaker 3: Cooked, very healthy, eight months Democrats, are you that my
Speaker 3: children could have been aborted if my wife wanted to
Speaker 3: go get an abortion. But moving away from that ugly,
Speaker 3: ugly reality, you know, once someone's born, they are subject
Speaker 3: to and given the rights granted by our constitution. They
Speaker 3: are protected and titled to life, liberty and pursuit of happiness.
Speaker 3: And I've made this argument before. If there was a
Speaker 3: lawyer standing there and they didn't provide any medical attention
Speaker 3: or care and allowed that child to die, I think
Speaker 3: the lawyer could go in representing the interest of the
Speaker 3: baby in court and make a good argument to the court,
Speaker 3: which would probably be granted emotion to well, provide them
Speaker 3: medical care. You can't just let them die. And then
Speaker 3: there's the hippocratic oath. Yes, you're a doctor providing abortion
Speaker 3: services for women. But you're still a doctor. Do no
Speaker 3: harm and for this subject came up. Yes, stay with
Speaker 3: doctor James Thorpe, just freaky stuff. In his book Sacrificed
Speaker 3: how the deadliest vaccine in history targeted the most vulnerable.
Speaker 3: He said, every doctor who insisted on forcing you to
Speaker 3: take a COVID nineteen shot to the exclusion of all
Speaker 3: other avenues, and all those who bent to the knee
Speaker 3: of the corporate money and the government money that was
Speaker 3: flowing into their lap to support and push the COVID
Speaker 3: nineteen vaccine in spite of the fact that he documented,
Speaker 3: they knew how much damage it would do.
Speaker 1: And that's the point. Do no harm.
Speaker 3: By providing these vaccines the most notably pregnant women, they
Speaker 3: did harm and knowingly did harm, given the just overwhelming
Speaker 3: evidence that the COVID nineteen vaccine was causing women significant
Speaker 3: problems and causing the fetuses significant problems, including well miscarriages.
Speaker 3: Hippocratic oath and dollars do not negate hipocratic oath, he
Speaker 3: pointed out.
Speaker 1: So, I mean.
Speaker 3: It's just another illustration I think of the of the
Speaker 3: craziness and the lack of humanity that most of the
Speaker 3: folks on the left just sort of embrace and the
Speaker 3: idea that you know, humans are just like festering cockroaches
Speaker 3: killing the planet. Five sixteen fifty five KRC Detalk Station.
Speaker 3: Feel free to chime in if you care to. Would
Speaker 3: love to hear from you. Five one, three, seven four
Speaker 3: nine fifty five hundred eight hundred two three talk. I
Speaker 3: will be right back after these brief words.
Speaker 5: This is fifty five KRC, an iHeartRadio station.
Speaker 3: The recent wildfires that revage five nineteen Friday Eve and
Speaker 3: a happy one. Also a fifty five KRC dot com
Speaker 3: conversation with Judejennena Paulatona on TikTok freedom of speech, and
Speaker 3: we talked about anchor babies and the big picture with
Speaker 3: Jack Atherton about the expanding number of young people who
Speaker 3: are shifting over to the conservative side of the Ledger.
Speaker 1: Welcome news.
Speaker 3: That not welcome news. They're still getting hit in California.
Speaker 3: We get another fire that are it yesterday? The Hughes
Speaker 3: fire great reportedly erupted yesterday, prompting the evacuation orders of
Speaker 3: tens of thousands of people. Hughes fire, reported yesterday morning,
Speaker 3: located in the unincorporated community of Kestake in northwestern Los
Speaker 3: Angeles County. As of eleven PM, the fire was only
Speaker 3: fourteen percent contained and had already burned over ten thousand
Speaker 3: acres and of course reports of structures being burned what
Speaker 3: you'd expect. It says zero structures damaged or destroyed. Four
Speaker 3: thousand fire personnel have been assigned to that particular fire man.
Speaker 3: I'm telling you they must have imported so many firefighters
Speaker 3: out in California. Court to Los Angeles County Fire Department
Speaker 3: Chief Anthony Maroney said, the weather is what is prominantly
Speaker 3: driving this fire and it's spread right now. Red flag
Speaker 3: warning remains ineffected until ten am Friday. Remains a difficult
Speaker 3: fire to contain, although we are getting the upper hand.
Speaker 3: Fifty thousand people reportedly affected either by an evacuation order warnings.
Speaker 3: According to the La County Sheriff, Robert Luna, parts of
Speaker 3: I five were closed that did reopen last night. The
Speaker 3: urged residents in the area to leave immediately according to
Speaker 3: cowfire Alert immediate threat to life. This is a lawful
Speaker 3: order to leave now. The area is lawfully closed to
Speaker 3: public access. That's just amazing to me. They just cannot
Speaker 3: catch a break. Out there and going back to one
Speaker 3: of the reasons they can't catch a break. We've talked
Speaker 3: about this so many times since all the details have
Speaker 3: been revealed. They had assigned and allocated money and projects
Speaker 3: and created a list of projects to be done to
Speaker 3: clear out all the brush and all the flammable materials,
Speaker 3: you know, this forestry management type of stuff, which they
Speaker 3: had neglected for years and years. This of course is
Speaker 3: independent of having sufficient water to put fires out when
Speaker 3: they start. But every time they had tried to move forward,
Speaker 3: as I've read the facts and information widely reported, when
Speaker 3: they started to engage in one of these you know,
Speaker 3: brush cleaning projects, environmentalists would file lawsuits based upon whatever
Speaker 3: environmental regulation have gotten place in California. This would invariably
Speaker 3: hold things up for a long period of time or
Speaker 3: ultimately result in the cancelation of these efforts to prevent
Speaker 3: the fire from engulfing. Like Los Angeles, which it's happening now,
Speaker 3: environmental groups standing in the way of necessary work. Oh,
Speaker 3: let's pivot over here. City of Cincinnati along those lines.
Speaker 3: According to a local nonprofit group that has raised objections
Speaker 3: to the Brent Spence Bridge project, they claim that the
Speaker 3: project the Brent Spreads Bridge a bridge quarter project will
Speaker 3: pollute the Ohio River and put more than a dozen
Speaker 3: plants and animals considered endangered or threatened at risk greater
Speaker 3: since a Coalition for Transit and Sustainable Development once the
Speaker 3: Ohio epaight is shut down the project by denying the
Speaker 3: water quality surve which I guess is necessary in order
Speaker 3: to move forward.
Speaker 1: According to the group and its.
Speaker 3: Press release, the agency should not allow degradation of a
Speaker 3: vital source of water in favor of a highway expansion.
Speaker 3: The Ohio River already faces signivican environmental challenges as this
Speaker 3: project would add, and this project would add to those burdens,
Speaker 3: the coalition said. Backed by Davout Good Foundation of Covington
Speaker 3: aka Sustainable City, the group apparently wants supporters to ask
Speaker 3: the Ohio EPA to deny the water a permit via petition.
Speaker 3: The Ohio Department of Transportation to the bridge project is
Speaker 3: complying with all applicable legal requirements while delivering a project
Speaker 3: that will bring safer, less congested travel and job opportunities
Speaker 3: to the region, which I suppose it. Well, they've got
Speaker 3: to build a bridge. There's job opportunities right there. And
Speaker 3: the flow of commerce must continue. It's one of the
Speaker 3: most valuable highways. From the entire length of it, I
Speaker 3: think is five one percent of our nation's economy goes
Speaker 3: up and down the highway there, and of course this
Speaker 3: will make it more efficient. I a point out the
Speaker 3: construction is going to be taking out about ninety acres
Speaker 3: of forests, seventy four Kentucky, sixteen in Ohio, narrow strips
Speaker 3: of land running along the sides of seventy one and
Speaker 3: seventy five two acres of streams, and two point four
Speaker 3: acres of wetland. That's what the coalition stated in their documents,
Speaker 3: and they claim we'll see increased pollution caused by additional
Speaker 3: traffic after the construction is completed. In terms of species,
Speaker 3: they claim sixteen species could be potentially harmed by the
Speaker 3: Brent Spence Bridge Bridge project. Seven endangered muscles, including the washboard,
Speaker 3: elephant ear monkey face, wardy back butterfly, ebony shell and
Speaker 3: Ohio pig tooe muscles. Four endangered bats, the Indiana bat,
Speaker 3: northern long eared bat, gray bat, little brown bat, and
Speaker 3: the track colored bat, which is not yet endangered but
Speaker 3: it's proposed to be endangered. I guess its endangered status
Speaker 3: is pending. Two fish, the Channel darter and River darter,
Speaker 3: tiny ones one to three inches long. They are one
Speaker 3: bird they claim is threatened, the black crowned night heron,
Speaker 3: and finally the Virginia malloy perennial herb with white flowers
Speaker 3: that grows up to ten feet tall listed as potentially threatened.
Speaker 1: Channel.
Speaker 3: In my mind, Joe Strecker, sometimes I think you're clairvoyant. Ohio,
Speaker 3: for example, will have to relocate muscles no more than
Speaker 3: a year before the construction starts. Muscles should be moved
Speaker 3: between May and October. First, kept in water except when
Speaker 3: cataloged four quote no longer than one minute at a time.
Speaker 3: Close quote, and we've located upstream to similar or better
Speaker 3: habitats according to how Department Natural Resource Muscle Survey protocol.
Speaker 1: We've got one of those.
Speaker 3: Additionally, Kentucky will contribute to its slate of Imperiled Bat
Speaker 3: Conservation Fund, which I wrote loll after because you know,
Speaker 3: throwing money into a fund, I presume the fund money
Speaker 3: is used to get I hope result in bat conservation.
Speaker 3: But if you're going to go ahead and move forward
Speaker 3: with the project and endangerous bats putting money into something
Speaker 3: doesn't negate the reality of that. It's like carbon offs,
Speaker 3: it's carbon credits. You have to pay money to emit carbon.
Speaker 3: That doesn't stop the carbon from being miitted. It just
Speaker 3: makes your business more or less profitable.
Speaker 1: Anyway.
Speaker 3: Don't know if this argument has any merit, but like
Speaker 3: the environmental laws stood in the way of getting the
Speaker 3: brush and all the flammable material cleaned up, among other blocks,
Speaker 3: we now have environmentalists coming in to stop a much needed,
Speaker 3: long long awaited for bridge reconstruction project or bridge construction project,
Speaker 3: one that even back to the Obama administration who campaigned
Speaker 3: in front of the Brent Spn's bridge promising well these
Speaker 3: construction dollars seems to be bipartisan support for the bridge project.
Speaker 3: Five twenty seven fifty five KR see the talk stations
Speaker 3: stick around. Local stories coming up are alternatively phone calls.
Speaker 3: Either way we go, I'll.
Speaker 6: Be right back fifty five KRC.
Speaker 1: Hey, it's Bobby Bones. Join me at former interview.
Speaker 3: It's five thirty year fifty five car CD talk station.
Speaker 3: Happy Friday Eve. Remember about your over at the fifty
Speaker 3: five KRC dot com. Checking out doctor James Thorpe's podcast
Speaker 3: and getting his book Sacrifice. In addition to the other
Speaker 3: things there, get your iHeart media app. It's easy to
Speaker 3: stream the audio wherever it happened to be. And listening
Speaker 3: to podcast. You can listen to all the Iheard media content.
Speaker 3: It's like lots and lots and lots of it. Plus
Speaker 3: it's good for the show. Trust me on that. Good
Speaker 3: for Joe Streker two. Remember we want to do a
Speaker 3: podcast called Just Strecker. He's the podcast guy. People who
Speaker 3: are expressing some concerns, I don't think they're legitimate. Over
Speaker 3: Trump's executive order with regarding the infrastructure projects. Of course,
Speaker 3: the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act Biden signed in a
Speaker 3: law November twenty twenty one provided funding for certain infrastructure projects,
Speaker 3: including well more than one point five billion for the
Speaker 3: Brent Spn's Bridge Corridor project that was earmark for Ohio
Speaker 3: and Kentucky. So one of the executive orders his son
Speaker 3: would repeal implementation of the BIPART as an infrastructure law,
Speaker 3: or at least some of the projects under it, and
Speaker 3: there was a clarification issued. White House issued a clarification
Speaker 3: saying that President's action requires agencies to immediately positives person
Speaker 3: one of funds appropriated under that infrastructure law, but this
Speaker 3: only applies to funds supporting programs, projects or activities associated with.
Speaker 1: The Green New Deal government.
Speaker 3: Wyane asked about this, and everybody needs to relax. I mean,
Speaker 3: this bridge can instruction of the whole planning for it
Speaker 3: obviously takes a lot longer than we wanted it to.
Speaker 3: So it's not going to be built overnight.
Speaker 4: We know that.
Speaker 3: But there's nothing that the White House has done today
Speaker 3: that is going to slow down what we see as
Speaker 3: far as the progress with the bridge. No, but the
Speaker 3: environmentalist might Andy Bischer, speaking with Fox nineteen nineteen, said that, well,
Speaker 3: he does have concerns about the executive order. He's not
Speaker 3: concerned about the well the project, the funds for the project.
Speaker 4: He said.
Speaker 3: President Trump previously promised to build a companion bridge, and
Speaker 3: now he has a chance to keep his commitment. Yeah,
Speaker 3: I don't think that that order encompassed the Brents Men's
Speaker 3: bridge project. Well, let's go over and see what Dave's got.
Speaker 3: I got Dave on the line. Hey, Dave, thanks for
Speaker 3: calling this morning. Happy Friday eve to you.
Speaker 7: Hey, Happy Friday eight.
Speaker 1: Thanks. I was listening to Levin.
Speaker 8: Last night and we all know he.
Speaker 7: Deserves our respect because he's definitely put in his time,
Speaker 7: all the books, all the knowledge, and he disagrees with
Speaker 7: our judge about the jurisdiction all persons under the jurisdiction.
Speaker 7: Oh argument the judge made.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I've seen both sides of the argument, and I okay,
Speaker 3: So where do you fall. I'm not sure how. I'm
Speaker 3: not sure. I think that both sides make a good argument,
Speaker 3: and it's you know, you can put one against the other,
Speaker 3: and it's one of those fifty to fifty things. Well
Speaker 3: you make sense, and well you make sense. I think
Speaker 3: it's it's foolish to allow the mere fact that you're
Speaker 3: here in this country and give birth to a baby.
Speaker 3: I don't think personally that should qualify you for citizenship.
Speaker 3: But the way the law is written, or rather the
Speaker 3: Constitution is written, the argument can be made for that
Speaker 3: because you know, as the judge pointed out, I am
Speaker 3: subject to the jurisdiction of the United States. Here I sit,
Speaker 3: and if I commit crimes, you know I'm going to
Speaker 3: be prosecuted. Same thing goes for a foreigner foreigner here,
Speaker 3: an illegal immigrant, a legal immigrant, and with the exception
Speaker 3: of as he pointed out people who have diplomatic community,
Speaker 3: they're not subject to the laws of the United States.
Speaker 3: That's his point about giving birth in an embassy. Now
Speaker 3: I didn't get the chance to ask him if he
Speaker 3: gave birth to the baby in a hospital, not in
Speaker 3: the embassy, if that baby would have a birthright citizenship
Speaker 3: if they were a child of a diplomat. But moving
Speaker 3: away from the diplomatic part, everyone who's in the country
Speaker 3: is subject to the jurisdiction of the United States of
Speaker 3: America and the laws local laws, county law, you know,
Speaker 3: state laws, federal laws. So that's where that argument comes from.
Speaker 3: And I think that makes sense. But I think it's
Speaker 3: a stupid policy because of this whole anchor baby concept
Speaker 3: and the fact that people will come into our country
Speaker 3: merely for the purpose of having a baby, so they
Speaker 3: enjoy the US citizenship right and everything goes with it,
Speaker 3: but don't have any connection with our country at all.
Speaker 7: So I don't have they come here, have a baby
Speaker 7: and leaf exactly.
Speaker 1: I know.
Speaker 3: You see, that's where where reality runs headlong into the
Speaker 3: way the language is written. You know, I was having
Speaker 3: a conversation with somebody about this yesterday. You know, wouldn't
Speaker 3: it be great if you could go back and whisper
Speaker 3: into the founding Father's ear as they were writing the Constitution,
Speaker 3: something like, hey, you know, ins far as that's second
Speaker 3: Amendment is concerned, don't put a well regulated militia in there,
Speaker 3: Just say the right to keep him bare arms shall
Speaker 3: not be in fringe. You'll save us a lot of
Speaker 3: headache down the road. And ins far as this you know,
Speaker 3: citizenship thing is concerned, you know, subject to the laws
Speaker 3: of the United States. Once you put provide a little
Speaker 3: bit more clarity on what you mean on that, or
Speaker 3: don't put those in there, it's you know, we're left
Speaker 3: with what they gave us, which is a brilliant, beautiful,
Speaker 3: wonderful document that has allowed us to live, thrive, and
Speaker 3: survive for a two hundred and fifty years. But here's
Speaker 3: where you end up with some confusion because it isn't
Speaker 3: clearly defined or stated. That's what we have courts for,
Speaker 3: and perhaps this will end up in courts, you know
Speaker 3: it will. He's signed an executive order taking saying there
Speaker 3: is no birthright citizenship. Someone's go sue maybe the first
Speaker 3: illegal immigrant who gives birth, you know, during this week
Speaker 3: five thirty five fifty five care see the talk station.
Speaker 3: Thanks for the call, Dave, so I can more definitively
Speaker 3: explain it. But I said, both sides make great arguments.
Speaker 3: I'll be back after these reefords got to stack of
Speaker 3: stupid dive on into or more phone calls, which I
Speaker 3: welcome here on.

Speaker 3: Costco and Los Angeles fighting over coveted Pokemon cards that
Speaker 3: happened on January sixteenth, NZ.
Speaker 1: Thank you joe Leaus, accord.
Speaker 3: To New York Post reporting, the cards weren't any normal
Speaker 3: Pokemon packs, but the desired desired. That's see the problem
Speaker 3: is that they're desired. Hunt one fifty one Blooming Waters
Speaker 3: Premium Collection packs. Collection of cards originally sold for one
Speaker 3: hundred and twenty dollars one hundred and fifty dollars, highly
Speaker 3: sought after by resellers and scoppers after the wholesale franchise
Speaker 3: started to list them at under sixty dollars last week.
Speaker 3: One suspected reseller wrapped himself around a younger man who
Speaker 3: was carrying two boxes and fought over the box set.
Speaker 3: Younger man viciously elbowed his attacker in the face, while
Speaker 3: a female shopper yelled at him, get the F word
Speaker 3: off me, bro one shopper set. Unrelenting man continued to
Speaker 3: hold onto the pack while the other shoppers struggled to
Speaker 3: carry theirs away from the area, people again ordering other
Speaker 3: shoppers to call the police because of the unruly nature
Speaker 3: of the crowd. Police were not called though, to the store,
Speaker 3: and no arrests were made, no serious injuries reported, thankfully.
Speaker 3: These are pieces of paper just walk away, yeah, you know,
Speaker 3: and whether or not they actually would or could just leave.
Speaker 3: It's like the beanie babies. Oh, it's a limited edition, yeah,
Speaker 3: limited to what however, any damn number of babies they
Speaker 3: want to to manufacture. It's a collector's edition. Yeah, and
Speaker 3: they got like nine million of them out into the
Speaker 3: world anyway. One eBay listing selling ten packs of these
Speaker 3: for fifteen hundred and sixty four dollars and seventy eight
Speaker 3: cents last bid as of the reporting on this. You
Speaker 3: have something better to do with your money, like, use
Speaker 3: that money to cover the cost of eggs. An Australian
Speaker 3: cruise companies sent a parade of workers marching through a
Speaker 3: ship dressed in pointy white hoods and I'm looking at
Speaker 3: a picture of it and yes, it is reminiscent of
Speaker 3: the Ku Klux Klan.
Speaker 6: Do what the hell?
Speaker 3: Footage of this stunt shows eight p and O cruise
Speaker 3: cleaners walking by a pool on the ship's desk while
Speaker 3: dressed in the face covering hoods along with all white outfits.
Speaker 3: Happened in December.
Speaker 1: What the hell?
Speaker 3: One outrage passenger posting a video on Facebook? Is this
Speaker 3: appropriate for twenty twenty four? No, it was never appropriated,
Speaker 3: and the footage of one in the foreground of the
Speaker 3: video can be seen eyeing the clan like spectacle with
Speaker 3: an exasperated facial expression. We were like, are we seeing
Speaker 3: this correctly? It was so bizarre, said one passenger from Melbourne, Australia.
Speaker 3: She's like, she said, what the hell? She asked company
Speaker 3: for an explanation. Cruise company said the workers were dressed
Speaker 3: as are you ready for this? Upside down snow cones?
Speaker 3: During the Christmas theme event on the Pacific Exployer voyage
Speaker 3: from Melbourne to Hobart. Piano Cruises Australia representative told the
Speaker 3: outlet we regret if a recent incident on a Pacific
Speaker 3: Explorer cruise offered or rather offended any guests. The cleaning
Speaker 3: crew had never heard of the KKK organization before the incident,
Speaker 3: said Piano crew folks woman. She said, no one can
Speaker 3: seriously think that was their intention. Not clear why workers
Speaker 3: were dressed as quote snow cones close quote for a
Speaker 3: Christmas event, but they said the costumes and other resources
Speaker 3: are limited on cruise ships and I'm sure snow is
Speaker 3: something the Australians are really familiar with. They see it
Speaker 3: all the time and would immediately get that those clan
Speaker 3: looking folks were intended to be viewed as upside down
Speaker 3: snow cones. Whatever, Thank you, Liam. Nicole Paulino of Gathersburg
Speaker 3: in Maryland spoke of her anguish after she was mistakenly
Speaker 3: declared dead. She made the discovery after applying to renew
Speaker 3: her driver's license. She said she was left frightened and surprised.
Speaker 3: Her words as a text informing her she was officially dead,
Speaker 3: showed up in the Maryland Motor Vehicle Administration system. Speaking
Speaker 3: with local news there ABC four, it then appears that
Speaker 3: I am deceased. I got a little frightened. I'm not
Speaker 3: gonna lie and surprised. I mean, because I am alive.
Speaker 3: I'm here. Officials informed her she could not renew her
Speaker 3: driver's license before she received a letter from the US
Speaker 3: Internal Revenue Service describing her as a deceased taxpayer. Health
Speaker 3: insurance for the mother and three children also canceled, prompting
Speaker 3: a stream of medical bills and leaving her unable to
Speaker 3: get the inhaler she needs for asthma. She said, this
Speaker 3: really really messes up my life. It has affected me
Speaker 3: a lot, affected my health, my mental health. Then she
Speaker 3: got a call from the Social Security office, who told
Speaker 3: her the mistake was the result.
Speaker 1: Are you ready of a typo?
Speaker 10: I'm not.
Speaker 3: According to the representative, the funeral home tried to a
Speaker 3: funeral home, tried to report someone else dead, but got
Speaker 3: a digit wrong in the Social Security number, submitting Paulino's number,
Speaker 3: and said soca's security administration, speaking the same news let,
Speaker 3: said its records were highly accurate. In less than point
Speaker 3: three to three percent of the more than three million
Speaker 3: death reports they receive anually were later corrected, so suggisting
Speaker 3: around ten thousand reports were wrong each year. Attorney Joseph McClellan.
Speaker 3: This happens almost on a daily basis. The impact is
Speaker 3: the worst impact you can have on your credit report.

Speaker 3: it being Thursday, I heard mediaviationsh for Jay rayleiff On
Speaker 3: today thirty got a bunch of talking about. I saw
Speaker 3: a Facebook bust at four inches of snow down at
Speaker 3: his Savannah house.
Speaker 1: Do you see that?
Speaker 3: Joe broke a record from like the late eighteen hundreds
Speaker 3: or something. See we moved down here for mild temperatures. Anyway,
Speaker 3: A couple in Petersburg, Kentucky, where they got snow, built
Speaker 3: a nine foot snowman and didn't expect it to attract vandals.
Speaker 3: It's a matter of instant karma here. Codyltz said his
Speaker 3: fiance was visiting him in Kentucky and was excited because, well,
Speaker 3: it's the biggest snowfall she's ever seen. His fiance, Laura
Speaker 3: from Mississippi, some of the snowfall during her weekend trip
Speaker 3: that both the two of them celebrated. We had a
Speaker 3: full weekend of sledding and snowball fights and making most
Speaker 3: of the winter Wonderland's speaking with CBS News, of course,
Speaker 3: that included building a snowman, rather unorthodox way to build
Speaker 3: a snowman. They used a massive tree stump in the
Speaker 3: front yard as the base for the snowman. They got finished,
Speaker 3: making him as nearly ten feet tall. I had a
Speaker 3: massive top hat. Of course everyone could see it. What said,
Speaker 3: everyone driving by loved him, and way and honk to
Speaker 3: express their light. However, evidently not everyone was a fan.
Speaker 3: I arrived home to find a set of tire tracks
Speaker 3: across my yard ending abruptly at the base of the snowman.
Speaker 3: He realized at that point someone tried to drive over
Speaker 3: the snowman and knock it down. However, since the base
Speaker 3: of the stump was a base was a massive tree stump,
Speaker 3: they failed. Idiots doing idiot things because they're idiots. And
Speaker 3: a photograph that was posted with it, you can see
Speaker 3: that the bumper of the car left this massive imprint
Speaker 3: in the snow was formerly the base of the snowman.
Speaker 1: Uh.
Speaker 3: And of course they said they felt the snowman was
Speaker 3: meant to build and teach the vandals a lesson, calling it, yes,
Speaker 3: of course instant karma. Imagine what the front of the
Speaker 3: car looked like, I know, you know, imagine the reaction
Speaker 3: to the people who wanted to do it. Oh my god,
Speaker 3: Dad's gonna kill me. I wrecked his trunk. Five elderly
Speaker 3: African elephants that the Colorado Zoo are going to stay there.
Speaker 3: This after the state's highest court said the animals have
Speaker 3: no legal right to demand their release because of course
Speaker 3: they're not human. Colorado Supreme Court, in a six to
Speaker 3: zero decision, the term of the Jambo, Kimba, Lulu, Lucky
Speaker 3: and Missy are going to remain at the Shayan Mountain
Speaker 3: Zoo in Colorado Springs, following a similar decision from twenty
Speaker 3: twenty two by New York State's highest court Court of
Speaker 3: Appeals that another aged elephant, Happy had remained at New
Speaker 3: York City. Bronx U Animal rights nonprofit non Human Rights
Speaker 3: Project brought both cases on the elephant's behalf under a
Speaker 3: legal doctrine known as habeas corpus, which I brought up
Speaker 3: yesterday in so far as the jay six protesters are concerned,
Speaker 3: Citing affidavids from several animal as seven animal biologists, the
Speaker 3: group told the Colorado court the elephants are highly social
Speaker 3: and mobiles share many cognitive abilities with humans, including empathy
Speaker 3: and self awareness, and when confined in zoo experience and
Speaker 3: boredom and stress that could lead to brain damage. Court
Speaker 3: said Colorado habea's statute applies to persons, not to non
Speaker 3: human animals, no matter how cognitively, psychologically, or socially sophisticated
Speaker 3: they may be. It also said Non Human Rights Projects
Speaker 3: concession during oral argument that it was seeking only different confinement,
Speaker 3: not complete freedom, for the elephants, was another reason to
Speaker 3: treat them and humans differently.
Speaker 1: Court to do justice.
Speaker 3: Maria Beckencotter, writing, the case does not turn on our
Speaker 3: regard for these majestic animals generally or these five specifically.
Speaker 3: Because an elephant is not a person, the elephants here
Speaker 3: do not have standing to bring a habeas corpus claim
Speaker 3: on their part. In the statement, non Human Rights Projects
Speaker 3: to the decision perpetuates a clear injustice that consigns the
Speaker 3: five elements elephants, in their words, to a lifetime of
Speaker 3: mental and physical suffering. They say they have not determined
Speaker 3: their next legal steps. Well there aren't any. You've already
Speaker 3: been through Colorado's highest court. If you think the Supreme
Speaker 3: Court of the United States is going to grant sert
Speaker 3: on this, I got a bridge.
Speaker 1: I want to sell you.
Speaker 3: A delayed Brent Spentz Bridge project. Alternatively, Oh real quick here,
Speaker 3: that was stock as stupid, But I just want to
Speaker 3: mention was sort of lamenting and bemoaning the fact that
Speaker 3: the Morgan Canoe Livery on the Little Miami was closing
Speaker 3: and they're making into a wildlife sanctuary kind of thing.
Speaker 1: That's great, But they.
Speaker 3: Just announced because they were there keeping the Indiana location open. Well,
Speaker 3: it's for sale. Located in Southeast Indiana, Morgan's Brookville Canoe
Speaker 3: Center is officially for sale. They're it's going to be
Speaker 3: open and up and open for business. You know, if
Speaker 3: there is no buyer this summer, the Morgan's announced. But
Speaker 3: if you're looking for a business opportunity and you're enthusiastic,
Speaker 3: it's part of the announcement. You have the right vision
Speaker 3: and leadership, you might have yourself. Well, I'm a canoe livery.
Speaker 3: If you're interested, I don't know what they're asking for.
Speaker 3: It listed on White Realty. So if you are thinking
Speaker 3: about maybe a new business to start, Morgan's Indiana Canoe
Speaker 3: Livery for sale five five fifty five krs. The talk

Speaker 3: on Trump's first few days. Dave Williams from the Taxpayer
Speaker 3: Protection Alliance, Jeff Shreucker and my me have a story
Speaker 3: I didn't get to from the stack is stupid. The
Speaker 3: other day, Philadelphia Mayor apparently can't spell the word Eagles.
Speaker 3: I guess trying to gin the crowd up that Joe
Speaker 3: said he's a product of their own failed school system. Anyway,
Speaker 3: David was apparently a Philadelphia Eagles fan. Dave from the
Speaker 3: Taxpayer text Line is going to talk about Trump leaving
Speaker 3: the World Health Organizations in Paris Accords, his big first
Speaker 3: day with all the executive orders and why we so
Speaker 3: desperately need to extend the Trump tax cuts.
Speaker 13: Just let me hear you.
Speaker 14: All saying, oh that's pretty.
Speaker 1: E L G S. Yes, Yeah, How are you supposed
Speaker 1: to spell it? Joe?
Speaker 3: I can't believe that I didn't hear the sound, but
Speaker 3: it I just saw the article that I didn't.
Speaker 1: Hear this sounes. That's embarrassing.
Speaker 3: Oh well, elections have consequences. That's someone I guess who
Speaker 3: is addicted to spell check. Anyway, don to Neil America's
Speaker 3: keep that please so AE Dave comes on. You can
Speaker 3: do it again, Donald Nei Ohio energy policy you can
Speaker 3: be partnering with the Buckeye Institute and hopefully advance the
Speaker 3: energy policy is something I talk about with Representative Odioso

Speaker 1: Jay Ratliffe at eight thirty I.

Speaker 3: talk about, including the fact that he got four inches
Speaker 3: of snow at a Savannah home. You can call feel
Speaker 3: free five one, three, seven, four, nine fifty five, eight
Speaker 3: hundred and eighty two to three talk pound five fifty
Speaker 3: on AT and T phones. It's begun Immigrations and Customs
Speaker 3: Enforcement finally doing their work. Let's see a bunch of arrests.
Speaker 3: Got the reporting from Fox News on the credit where
Speaker 3: credits due Between midnight January twenty first and nine a m.
Speaker 3: The twenty second, thirty three hours, ICE Enforcement to removal
Speaker 3: operations arrested over four hundred and sixty illegal aliens, including
Speaker 3: those with criminal histories. And this is what they're focusing on. Remember,
Speaker 3: because I'm Tom home and the borders are I got
Speaker 3: some comments on this.
Speaker 1: Criminals.
Speaker 3: The primary focus is to go after the evil doers
Speaker 3: that are in our society and shouldn't be here period.
Speaker 1: End of the story.
Speaker 3: Criminal history, sexual assault, robbery, burglary, aggravated assault, drugs and
Speaker 3: weapons offences, domestic violence, resisting arrest. Here's the following countries
Speaker 3: that they arrested nationals from ready Afghanistan in alphabetic order,
Speaker 3: Afghanistan and Gola, Bolivia, Brazil, Columbia, Dominican Republic, Ecuador, l Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, Mexico, Nicaragua, Senegal,
Speaker 3: and Venezuela. Apparently took place all across the United States,
Speaker 3: including Illinois, Utah, California, Minnesota, New York, Florida and Maryland.
Speaker 3: They issued more than four hundred and twenty detainers, which
Speaker 3: are requests that ICE be notified when national is released
Speaker 3: from custody. Nationals were arrested for crimes including homicide, sexual assault, kidnapping, battery,
Speaker 3: and robbery. Get a load of some of these. Jamaican
Speaker 3: national named Camaro Denver Hay arrested for promoting sexual performance
Speaker 3: by a child less than seventeen years of age and
Speaker 3: possessing sexual performance by a child less than sixteen.
Speaker 1: Years of age.
Speaker 3: Mexican national Jesus Baldas Armandoza convicted of second degree assault
Speaker 3: of a child. Arrested in Saint Paul, Minnesota. Columbia national
Speaker 3: Andreas Urgela Para arrested in San Francisco, OH Sanctuary City.
Speaker 3: He has a conviction of sexual penetration with a foreign
Speaker 3: object on an unaware victim. Lord almighty six illegal immigrants
Speaker 3: from MIAI in Miami from Guatemala criminal histories including child abuse, battery, fraud,
Speaker 3: resisting arrest, WI and trespassing as well as vandalism. Over
Speaker 3: to Boston. Agents arrested multiple MS thirteen gang members. Interpol
Speaker 3: red notices. I didn't know what that was and look
Speaker 3: it up. It's an initial cap on that Interpol red notices.
Speaker 3: I guess that's the international police looking for these folks.
Speaker 3: They found them, along with murder and rape suspects. The
Speaker 3: Department Homeland Security has also removed limits from powers of
Speaker 3: expedited removal, a day after it rescinded to Biden air
Speaker 3: a memo restricting where ICE can conduct enforcement operations, expanding
Speaker 3: the powers for these folks over the borders are Tom Homan.
Speaker 3: He was speaking on Fox and Friends yesterday. We're just
Speaker 3: trying to help public safety in your community. And I
Speaker 3: guess he's directing these comments towards sanctuary cities and the
Speaker 3: outspoken individuals who are are against helping out and will
Speaker 3: stand in the way of ICE doing its job, and
Speaker 3: they may be in trouble. People like Attorney Arizona Attorney
Speaker 3: General Chris Mays, I will not have any part of
Speaker 3: and will fight the attempt to set up what I
Speaker 3: believe are essentially concentration camps and family separation camps in
Speaker 3: the state of Arizona, which home and respired. He called
Speaker 3: it insultant, said, we said, right out of the gate, Lawrence,
Speaker 3: we're going to concentrate on public safety so she's saying
Speaker 3: that she doesn't want public safety threads out of the community.
Speaker 3: I also insulted by the term concentration camps. Are you serious?
Speaker 3: We just lost the Border Patrol agent a shooting up
Speaker 3: in Vermont yesterday and they're not and they're the Gestapo.
Speaker 3: Are you serious? Concentration camps. ICE has detention centers. They're
Speaker 3: the best standards in the entire industry. I'll compare ICE
Speaker 3: detention standards in any state or federally or any county
Speaker 3: facility in the entire world. We got the highest detention standard.
Speaker 3: So that's an insult and it's a lie.
Speaker 1: Amen.
Speaker 3: He said, help work with us because you're forced. You've
Speaker 3: forced us in the community. Here's what's going to happen.
Speaker 3: We'll find a bad guy, but when we find him,
Speaker 3: it's going to be with others. Others that might not
Speaker 3: have criminal priority. But guess what if they're in the
Speaker 3: United States illegally, they're going to be arrested too. Sanctuary
Speaker 3: cities are going to get exactly what they don't want.
Speaker 3: More agents in the communities, more people arrested, more collateral arrests.
Speaker 3: So that's a game they want to play game on
Speaker 3: And as to his statements. Their statement, Rather, sanctuary CITI
Speaker 3: is going to get exactly what they don't want. That's
Speaker 3: what the woke officials don't want. You asked the population,
Speaker 3: the citizenry that has to deal with it and the
Speaker 3: limited resources that these this influxibilitgal immigrants has brought to
Speaker 3: their communities. I bet you most of them say no,
Speaker 3: we want them here. We want these folks out of here.
Speaker 3: They've ruined life, housing shortage, you know, schools are packed
Speaker 3: and crowded. Do no other resources to take care of them.
Speaker 3: They're here legally, Holman said, we're concentrating on the worst first,
Speaker 3: the public safety threats and national security threats. And just yesterday,
Speaker 3: in the last twenty four hours, ICE arrested over three
Speaker 3: hundred and eight serious criminals. Some of them are murderers,
Speaker 3: some of them are rapists, some of them rape the child,
Speaker 3: some are a sexual assault of a child. So ICE
Speaker 3: is doing their job and they're prioritizing just as the
Speaker 3: President said they would. ICE is performing excellent right now
Speaker 3: out in the field, and they're going to continue every day.
Speaker 3: So I want to save lives, secure borders, save lives.
Speaker 3: When President Trump locks this border down, less women and
Speaker 3: children will be sex traffic in the country. Less aliens
Speaker 3: will die making that journey. Under President Biden, we've had
Speaker 3: a record number of people die acrossing the border. And
Speaker 3: here's fun figure for you, folks, a six hundred percent
Speaker 3: increase in sex trafficking. Just think of the horror that
Speaker 3: so many people have gone through and something that was
Speaker 3: encouraged by the Biden administration. Let's see what Steve's got
Speaker 3: a Steve, thanks for calling this morning, and a happy
Speaker 3: Friday Eve to you.
Speaker 12: Yes, sir, you're on eight cylinders today.
Speaker 4: That's good.
Speaker 12: I'm still on four. But you know that's me. You're
Speaker 12: you and I'm me, and.
Speaker 4: One day I'll grow.
Speaker 12: Up and then be on eight cylinders. A couple of
Speaker 12: things on the stack of stupid ani a mini one
Speaker 12: and then the main one. I'm calling. And I know
Speaker 12: Dan Hill or Dan Hills was the former head of
Speaker 12: the FOP, and you had a good relationship with him,
Speaker 12: and he spoke very sensibly. And there's a new head
Speaker 12: of the FOP and I don't know his name, but
Speaker 12: I do know that the local media or the media
Speaker 12: got a SoundBite from him, and he was happy to
Speaker 12: make something black and white that is very gray, and
Speaker 12: he's upset that Trump would pardon anybody that would fight
Speaker 12: with a police officer. Is not upset about He's not
Speaker 12: upset about the fact that there's at least two dozen
Speaker 12: and FBI informants that were encouraging people to do this.
Speaker 12: He's not upset that there were police officers that there's opening
Speaker 12: doors and letting people in. So he gave them the
Speaker 12: SoundBite they wanted. That's the mini stack of stupid. So
Speaker 12: just based on it being gray and not black and white,
Speaker 12: you think he would kind of keep his mouth shut.
Speaker 12: But maybe he's smarter than me.
Speaker 3: Yeah, Ken Kobert, he's been on the program quite a
Speaker 3: few times.
Speaker 12: Yeah, I've heard him on your show. I don't think
Speaker 12: he's smarter than me, but maybe he is. Secondly, and
Speaker 12: this is the main reason, but you know whatever I'm
Speaker 12: going to call I think of something else to say.
Speaker 12: But my main stack is stupid, and you were hammering
Speaker 12: him pretty good earlier in the week. I'm not I'm
Speaker 12: not a sports fan. I used to be. You know,
Speaker 12: if it's on, I'll watch a few minutes here and there.
Speaker 12: They are mercenaries. They don't represent me in any way.
Speaker 12: They'll play for anybody. What do I care. It doesn't
Speaker 12: affect my life one way or the other. But with
Speaker 12: the stadium, imagine, here's the stack of stupid. You are
Speaker 12: in a family of multi millionaires, You were born into
Speaker 12: the wealth or you married into it. You happen to
Speaker 12: be affiliated with a football team. You want the county
Speaker 12: to pay for repairs that are more or upgrades that
Speaker 12: cost more than the stadium initially costs. And they're actually
Speaker 12: sitting down negotiating.
Speaker 4: Now.
Speaker 12: The stupid is the millionaires that think they're entitled to this.
Speaker 12: The stupid is also the side negotiating with them. It's like,
Speaker 12: I agree with you one hundred percent. You got a
Speaker 12: pretty nice stadium. Not everybody can have the nicest home
Speaker 12: on the block. Not everybody has the best one. I'll
Speaker 12: never forget Ricky Henderson at one point was the highest
Speaker 12: paid player in baseball, and then somebody else became the
Speaker 12: highest paid player in baseball, and he was like, had
Speaker 12: this hour look on his face, like he was not
Speaker 12: happy anymore. It's like the juvenile mentality on both sides.
Speaker 12: Go ahead and go somewhere else. I mean, you know,
Speaker 12: do it, I mean, knock yourself out I mean, you've
Speaker 12: got a really good stadium. I can't you know the
Speaker 12: baseball stadium they use eighty times a year, the football
Speaker 12: stadium they use eight times a year, ten times a year.
Speaker 12: What a waste of money. And the fact that they
Speaker 12: would even consider throwing and the county officials if if
Speaker 12: the Bengals are asking for a billion and the county
Speaker 12: officials negotiate it down to eight hundred million, they'll be
Speaker 12: patting themselves on the back like they saved the county
Speaker 12: a lot of money. It divinity on both sides.
Speaker 3: I'm not disputing what you're saying, but the figure isn't
Speaker 3: yet yet that high. I think it was three hundred
Speaker 3: million dollars ask on the upgrades. But regardless, I don't
Speaker 3: I can't argue your point, but it goes down to it.
Speaker 3: It's a contractual relationship. The reason they have and can
Speaker 3: demand these upgrades is because the least agreement that we
Speaker 3: entered into with the owners allows them that, and they
Speaker 3: can ask that, and it requires the taxpayers at Hamilton
Speaker 3: County to fund certain upgrades.
Speaker 1: It's part of the contract.
Speaker 12: Bob betting House for the Bengals.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I mean, we all know.
Speaker 12: The negotiated for the county, get run out of office
Speaker 12: or whatever, and got lost his ship whatever it was,
Speaker 12: left his job, guaranteed employment with the Bengals. That there's
Speaker 12: no that, nothing smells bad about that, does it.
Speaker 3: Oh No, No, that's never, ever, ever not left this
Speaker 3: tension the room.
Speaker 12: Yeah, of course, nobody's supposed to remember anything.
Speaker 3: Well, we're living the reality of those negotiations right now,
Speaker 3: and that's where these obligations in the county come from.
Speaker 3: If they negotiated a better agreement and those can clearer
Speaker 3: heads have been in the room at the time, maybe
Speaker 3: we wouldn't be struggling with this right now. I don't know,
Speaker 3: but I agree with you all day long. We shouldn't
Speaker 3: have to and shouldn't be worried about having the best
Speaker 3: facilities in the country. You can't keep competing with the Joneses.
Speaker 3: You can play football though, it's right there. Look the field,

Speaker 3: About KNA City talk Station. Ken Blackwell returns to the
Speaker 3: program coming up next.
Speaker 1: And it's widely reported.
Speaker 3: I saw this in Epoch Times as well as political.
Speaker 3: Department of Justice directed prosecutors to investigate instances when state
Speaker 3: and local officials seek to obstruct immigration enforcement acting. The
Speaker 3: Deputy Attorney General Emil Bow said in a memorandum to
Speaker 3: all department employees that the United States Constitution requires state
Speaker 3: and local actors to comply with federal immigration enforcement in
Speaker 3: the federal law bars actors from resisting, obstructing, or otherwise
Speaker 3: failing to comply with lawful immigration related commands from the
Speaker 3: executive branch. This is a shot over the bout of
Speaker 3: the sanctuary cities who plan on obstructing. In the memo quote,
Speaker 3: the US Attorney's Office and litigating components of the Department
Speaker 3: of Justice shall investigate incidents involving any such misconduct for
Speaker 3: potential prosecution, including for obstructing federal function and being violation
Speaker 3: of a law that prohibits conspiracy to commit an offense
Speaker 3: against or defund the federal government. Bove said in the
Speaker 3: three page memo carries a prison term of up to
Speaker 3: five years for every count. He also cited another law
Speaker 3: that bars individuals from bringing illegal immigrants into the United
Speaker 3: States or and here's the assalient point, harboring them in
Speaker 3: the country. Court of the reporting violators can receive up
Speaker 3: to twenty years in prison, and can even be executed
Speaker 3: if a violation results in the death of any person.
Speaker 1: Wow.
Speaker 3: Well, this sort of answers the question about those obstructionists.
Speaker 3: In the memo above also said that the DOJ's Civil
Speaker 3: Division will look into laws, policies, and activities that quote
Speaker 3: threatened to impede close quote Executive Branch immigration efforts, such
Speaker 3: as by preventing the disclosed of information to federal authorities.
Speaker 3: DOJ officials, where appropriate, take legal action to challenge such laws.

Speaker 3: Great day to being time to be tuned into fifty
Speaker 3: five carsee morning show man. We all love here in
Speaker 3: the greater Cincinnati area, and people love throughout this country
Speaker 3: and this great land of ours. Welcome back. Former Secretary
Speaker 3: of State of Ohio, Treasure of Ohio, former mayor of
Speaker 3: the City of Cincinnati, and someone who's never ever stopped working.
Speaker 3: He's with the senior fellow with Family Research Council. Welcome back,
Speaker 3: Ken Blackwell. It's always a pleasure having you on the show.
Speaker 4: Stop it the money and Brian good to be with you.
Speaker 1: Your reaction.
Speaker 3: How'd you feel when when Monday finally rolled around and
Speaker 3: Donald Trump got sworn In my reactions, I quite literally, sir,
Speaker 3: felt like a weight had been lifted, as I've been
Speaker 3: walking around for the past four years with this tense
Speaker 3: concern for our country and the direction that is going.
Speaker 3: It's almost as if someone flipped the switch on.
Speaker 18: Oh absolutely, And that's a that's a good way of
Speaker 18: looking at it, because once that switch was flipped, a
Speaker 18: ball of energy and intelligence hit the White House and
Speaker 18: he just has been working. You know, this guy is
Speaker 18: not only a business tycoon and a developer. He understands
Speaker 18: some very fund principles and he actually understands American history. Everybody,
Speaker 18: a lot of people, particularly on the left, thought he
Speaker 18: was this looney tune when he said, you know, we're
Speaker 18: going to put off on the table to denmark to
Speaker 18: the person's a part of their property. Well everse, oh,
Speaker 18: he can't do that. Well, howd the heck? Do people
Speaker 18: just don't remember that we purchased Russia from Russia in
Speaker 18: eighteen sixty seven Alaska?
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think they regret selling it to us. But
Speaker 3: you're right, it can be done. And to your point
Speaker 3: about him being a businessman, it's like the Bengals. You know,
Speaker 3: you ask huge, and you expect your initial ask to
Speaker 3: be whittled away. That's when the negotiation process comes in.
Speaker 3: So he says he wants to buy it, but look
Speaker 3: what's happened The folks in Greenland by you know, it's
Speaker 3: been widely reported may not be all fired up about
Speaker 3: being purchased by the United States, but it has spurred
Speaker 3: an independence movement in their country, and they also suggest
Speaker 3: that they want closer ties to the United States. The
Speaker 3: reason Trump wants it won there's all kinds of natural
Speaker 3: resources there that could be tapped in which are not
Speaker 3: being tapped in. But also because of strategic significance in
Speaker 3: connection with global affairs. So if they want to embrace
Speaker 3: the United States and become closer with us, it all
Speaker 3: starts with a question, with a statement like I want
Speaker 3: to buy Greenland.
Speaker 18: Oh, absolutely, you know, he's the master of the transaction.
Speaker 18: The other thing that he really understands is that capital
Speaker 18: seeks to pay for at least resistance and greatest opportunity.
Speaker 18: He's not the first to understand that. Reagan understood it,
Speaker 18: but Trump has been living that principle and understanding that
Speaker 18: for all of his adult life. And so he understands
Speaker 18: that one we in fact have to cut taxes, you know,
Speaker 18: to make in fact it attractive to invest in the
Speaker 18: US again. The last time around, he was able to
Speaker 18: create a climate that brought almost two and a half
Speaker 18: trillion dollars offshore back into the American economy, and Brian,
Speaker 18: he's off to do it again.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Well, apparently the idea of getting businesses to move here
Speaker 3: seems to be working. That's part of the tariff component.
Speaker 13: You know.
Speaker 3: Trump's position is, listen, if we increase these tariffs, more
Speaker 3: businesses will want to come here and settle up and
Speaker 3: start up here. Miss was it LG electronics manufacturer, washing
Speaker 3: machine manufactur?
Speaker 4: Sure?
Speaker 3: I believe it was a whirlpool or whatever moving or
Speaker 3: are talking about moving their Mexican production here to the
Speaker 3: United States and start producing these items in American facilities.
Speaker 3: I think Solanis is moving the production of jeeps back
Speaker 3: to Illinois if I read that article correctly this morning.
Speaker 3: But it seems to be having an impact. Yes, Solanti's
Speaker 3: to reopen Illinois jeep plants and produce the Dodge Durango
Speaker 3: in Detroit after meeting with Donald Trump. Moving in here.
Speaker 3: So that's what that's the goal, that's the desire, and
Speaker 3: apparently it's bearing fruit already.
Speaker 18: Well, I tell you I for almost four years now.
Speaker 18: Another operation, another group of thinkers and action orient people
Speaker 18: that I have to work with are the folks over
Speaker 18: at the America First Politic Institute that was headed up
Speaker 18: by Brooke Rollins. Linda McMahon was the chairman. New Gingridge
Speaker 18: is on the board and we've we've been working to
Speaker 18: in fact, put in place many of the executive orders
Speaker 18: and the executive actions that this president has has has
Speaker 18: worked on a group of of of scholars and policy
Speaker 18: walks and administrators came out of the Reagan Excuse me,
Speaker 18: they came out of.
Speaker 4: The I'm just just pumped up about this.
Speaker 18: Okay, Don Trump's Don Trump's administration and in fact that
Speaker 18: we're going to go back, and when we go back,
Speaker 18: we're going to be ready.
Speaker 3: Let's pause, bring Ken Blackwell back. I want to talk
Speaker 3: a little bit about energy policy, because Trump is unleashing
Speaker 3: the energy that we have right here, and that's certainly,
Speaker 3: from my perspective, is going to create great opportunities for
Speaker 3: more business to come to America. Pause will bring Ken
Speaker 3: Weell Blackwell back. It's six thirty five right now. If
Speaker 3: you have KCD talk stationally mentioned a fantastic product and
Speaker 3: one you wish you had right now in these cold temperatures.
Speaker 3: That's USA insulation. Your home is under insulated. I bet
Speaker 3: you're feeling it right now. Is that furnace stop running
Speaker 3: for the past week. No, it's probably been running non stop.
Speaker 3: Your furnace will burn out earlier. If your home is
Speaker 3: under insulated or uninsulated, and that's where USA's premium phone
Speaker 3: comes in. Call for a free inspection. Maybe you don't
Speaker 3: know if you're under insulating, so I think I got
Speaker 3: something in there. They can find out if you have
Speaker 3: insufficient they can add the phone to that. It's the
Speaker 3: highest R value phone in the market, made right here
Speaker 3: in the state of Ohio. Thousands of people have done
Speaker 3: the right thing and insulated their home and you should too.
Speaker 3: Call for the free inspection, find out what the quote
Speaker 3: is and it's only ninety nine dollars a month interest free,
Speaker 3: and it's very very possible you save more than that
Speaker 3: on your energy bill. It's about comfort, immediate comfort and

Speaker 3: Six thirty nine fifty about KRCD talks station Brian Twins
Speaker 3: with Ken Blackwell. Always love hearing from Ken Blackwell and
Speaker 3: Ken pivoting over. Obviously, Donald Trump hit the ground running.
Speaker 3: I don't think you could describe it really better than that,
Speaker 3: all these executive orders and and praees. Dear God, let
Speaker 3: this be true and let it stick. What appears to
Speaker 3: be the end of this climate change religion used to
Speaker 3: be global warming until the blizzards hit the Southern States Ken,
Speaker 3: and now it's you know, it's climate change. So but
Speaker 3: you know, pulling us out of the Paris Accord got
Speaker 3: the National Energy Emergency, which opens up millions of acres
Speaker 3: in Alaska. We've got more oil, gas and energy in
Speaker 3: this country than anyplace else on earth, he pointed out.
Speaker 3: And you know, just go ahead and contract. You want
Speaker 3: a real time illustration contrasted with what's going on in Germany,
Speaker 3: the former economic powerhouse of the European Union. They can't
Speaker 3: even keep their lights on. Factories literally shut down because
Speaker 3: they cannot afford to pay the energy bill. You don't
Speaker 3: produce goods and services if you can't pay the electric bill,
Speaker 3: and the relyant on the wind and solar until ken
Speaker 3: the wind stops flowing and the sun doesn't shine. Then
Speaker 3: they borrow nuclear power from France.
Speaker 18: Oh absolutely, Look what the President has said is that
Speaker 18: he not only wants to make the United States of
Speaker 18: America energy independent, he wants to make us energy dominant.
Speaker 18: He understands that we have the intellectual genius and the
Speaker 18: natural resources to get our economy growing at an accelerated pace,
Speaker 18: put Americans back to work, giving them ample sovereigns. But
Speaker 18: one of the things that people don't know is that
Speaker 18: what by even in fighting inflation, the energy strategy has
Speaker 18: a high impact. And so he understands that one of
Speaker 18: the ways that you bring down the cost is in
Speaker 18: fact making understanding what the petroleum and other energy sources
Speaker 18: go into in terms of agriculture, in terms you know,
Speaker 18: just running our factory.
Speaker 3: So plastic, I mean, can we live with that plastic cat?
Speaker 18: He's and look and the reason I tell you, gingas
Speaker 18: all the time we went back with Reagan and Reagan
Speaker 18: and and and even Dixon, those folks said we will
Speaker 18: make sure that America that we improved the air in
Speaker 18: America and the water. And I challenge anybody to show
Speaker 18: us where our water and our air is second to any.
Speaker 4: In the world.
Speaker 1: Yeah, there's no question about it.
Speaker 3: And you know, Kennis, I've observed many times over the
Speaker 3: years wealth is what allows you to clean up the environment.
Speaker 3: When you have an abundance of wealth, you can allocate
Speaker 3: resources to clean things up or improve conditions. But you
Speaker 3: have to have the money first.
Speaker 18: Absolutely, and President Trump understands that. But what I really
Speaker 18: like about the way he's jump started everything associated with
Speaker 18: Washington d C. Is that this guy never treated any
Speaker 18: part of America a flower country, right that.
Speaker 4: And so he has.
Speaker 18: Fundamentally realigned the Republican party base in America and he
Speaker 18: understands that that base, that energy, that imagination, that confidence
Speaker 18: and confidence and pride in America is what's going to
Speaker 18: push this train down the track. And that's what people
Speaker 18: have have underestimated this guy, you know he is.
Speaker 4: He is the true.
Speaker 18: Definition of a blue collar billionaire. Just his work ethic,
Speaker 18: his love of the country, uh, and his love of
Speaker 18: Americans America.
Speaker 4: First, Yes, that's his thing, and that works.
Speaker 3: Isn't an amazing you know, that wasn't that long ago
Speaker 3: that they are Particans of the Republicans with a party
Speaker 3: of you know, elite billionaires and rubbing shoulders with the
Speaker 3: corporate lead. They didn't give a damn about the front
Speaker 3: line Americans. And look at the Republican Party now versus
Speaker 3: the Democrat Party who are surrounded by all of the
Speaker 3: corporate greed.
Speaker 12: Right.
Speaker 18: It was so funny being in DC and the inauguration
Speaker 18: and to watch a lot of and to listen to
Speaker 18: a so called legacy media talk about, Oh, isn't it awful?
Speaker 18: Look at it? Look at it? Look at those guys.
Speaker 18: Who are those billionaires who are with Trump? You know,
Speaker 18: just a year ago many of those billionaires are on
Speaker 18: the other side and they don't complaining about them. Then, yeah,
Speaker 18: but the Trump understands that he could create an environment
Speaker 18: and that most of those folks have some intelligence and
Speaker 18: they in fact want to be on the winning team.
Speaker 3: Yeah, real quick here before we part company. Canon, back
Speaker 3: to the energy thing. I'm really hopeful. I mean, first off,
Speaker 3: an abundance of energy and resources for generating energy will
Speaker 3: lower our energy bills. These the laws of supply and demand.
Speaker 3: If you have a whole lot of it, it becomes less expensive.
Speaker 3: So we'll all get a raise if Trump's policies move forward,
Speaker 3: as I hope they do. But part of this component,
Speaker 3: and it also works within the green religion that's going
Speaker 3: on out there, Why can't we build nuclear plants? Here
Speaker 3: in the United States of America. And I think one
Speaker 3: thing that's going to allow us to unleash that unbelievably
Speaker 3: wonderful energy generation source is artificial intelligence. You know, when
Speaker 3: these billionaires want to build these massive AI facilities, and
Speaker 3: they are, and we need to compete with China in
Speaker 3: the area of AI, and we do. They're talking about
Speaker 3: building their own nuclear facilities to power these plants. Maybe
Speaker 3: that is the key to unlocking us getting this abundant
Speaker 3: energy supply, which happens to be carbon neutral.
Speaker 12: Oh.
Speaker 18: Absolutely, we just close out with this. Trump has not
Speaker 18: just been focused on false appuels. He has always said
Speaker 18: we're going to be utilizing all of the above, and
Speaker 18: so he understands just what you just said that in fact,
Speaker 18: we're going to be where it's nuclear, whether it's you know,
Speaker 18: you can just name it every source, but it's all
Speaker 18: of the above without abandoning our foundation source.
Speaker 3: Let let the smartest ideas in the room prevail and
Speaker 3: do not artificially prevent them with some nonsensical comment about
Speaker 3: you know, exhalation killing the planet.
Speaker 1: My take on it.
Speaker 3: Anyway, Ken Blackwell, you are always welcome here in the
Speaker 3: fifty five caresing morning, showing to my listeners, love you
Speaker 3: and I do two, and keep up the great work
Speaker 3: and keep speaking truth well formally truth to power. Now
Speaker 3: we got truth as the dominant message now, don't we.
Speaker 4: Absolutely.
Speaker 18: And let me just close out by saying one of
Speaker 18: the things my dad just to always say, faith on
Speaker 18: TESTA cannot be trusted. I have an abundant of faith
Speaker 18: in our country and our city, and in our people
Speaker 18: and in our God.
Speaker 3: Well well stated, and God bless you, sir. I'll look
Speaker 3: forward to having you on again real soon. Stay well,
Speaker 3: it's six forty seven here, fifty five K see the
Speaker 3: talk station, Joe open the phone Line's got a few
Speaker 3: minutes to take calls. If you have a comment, maybe
Speaker 3: on something Ken said, we'll do. We'll hear from Dave
Speaker 3: Williams from the Taxpayer of Protection Alliance after the top
Speaker 3: of the islan our news on a whole host of topics.
Speaker 3: But first, fast and pro roofing. Yeah, fast and pro roofing.
Speaker 3: You can expect your roof and you should have Fasten
Speaker 3: pro to it rather than some other roofing company which
Speaker 3: may not be honest. And I've mentioned year's a year
Speaker 3: after year after year because I've been speaking and glad
Speaker 3: happily speaking on behalf of Fast and Pro.
Speaker 1: They are just a bunch of con.
Speaker 3: Artists out in the roofing business. It's just so easy
Speaker 3: to scam people. And I think of like a senior
Speaker 3: citizen for example. I mean, you may be young enough
Speaker 3: you can get and climb up around your roof, and
Speaker 3: you may know what you're looking for in terms of
Speaker 3: problems you might encounter, but you're like me, you don't
Speaker 3: want to go up there and you don't know what
Speaker 3: you're looking for.
Speaker 1: But the senior may not even position.
Speaker 3: If they know everything there is to know about roof
Speaker 3: and you get up on the roof, well they might
Speaker 3: get scammed. Don't go down that road. Call Ray and
Speaker 3: amand at Fast and Pro Roof and they have an
Speaker 3: outstanding team. I cannot imagine roofing being done better than
Speaker 3: the craftsmen level roofing you get with Fast and Pro,
Speaker 3: whether it's residential or commercial, regardless of what type of
Speaker 3: roof you have, you want if it needs to be replaced,
Speaker 3: you could go with a metal roof and replacing a
Speaker 3: shingle roof. That's an option they do those they have
Speaker 3: copper beautiful copper work. I recommend you check that out.
Speaker 3: It's just it's craftsmen level stuff, folks. Exterior projects like

Speaker 3: Williams Taxpayer Protection Alliance after the top of their news
Speaker 3: felt by Donald and Neil for Americans for Prosperity on
Speaker 3: Ohio energy policy. Will continue that further that conversation with
Speaker 3: Donovan in the meantime, And I really I don't know
Speaker 3: if the Democrats are serious when they out loud think
Speaker 3: that Elon Musk actually did a Nazi salute the other day.
Speaker 3: I mean, how embarrassing is it if they really think
Speaker 3: that that is happening, But apparently some of them do.
Speaker 3: An interesting, interesting op ed piece from the editorial board
Speaker 3: of The Wall Street Journal commented on this. If Democrats
Speaker 3: are so worried about disinformation, they should stop spreading disinformation.
Speaker 3: The witness Connecticut Senator Chris Murphy on Tuesday, questioning at
Speaker 3: least stefanic President Trump's nominee to the ambassador of the
Speaker 3: United Nations. He actually said this out loud. What do
Speaker 3: you think of Elon Musk, perhaps the President's most visible advisor,
Speaker 3: doing two Hyle Hitler's salutes last night at the President's
Speaker 3: televis rally. What an embarrassment anyway? What an object lesson
Speaker 3: in the laundering of a kooky online smear. Roll back
Speaker 3: to day, Mister Musk is reacting to a roaring arena
Speaker 3: as he says the twenty twenty four election really mattered,
Speaker 3: and his heart goes out to the crowd. He slaps
Speaker 3: his chest and waves his arm around to the audience.
Speaker 3: The peanut gallery on social media went nuts, suggesting it
Speaker 3: was an intentional Nazi salute, which mainstream mountains then cited
Speaker 3: to justify covering the supposed controversy. New York Times said
Speaker 3: Elon Musk ignited speculation and chatter online.
Speaker 1: The Atlantic.
Speaker 3: Did Elon Musk actually toss off a seguile at Donald
Speaker 3: Trump's inauguration round today? A lot of people online seem
Speaker 3: to think he did soon enough. It hardly mattered what
Speaker 3: mister Musk intended he gestured, the AP said or his
Speaker 3: gesture the AP said has been embraced by right wing extremists,
Speaker 3: regardless of what he meant. Hey, Joe, where are all
Speaker 3: these right wing extremists anyway? Okay, you let me know
Speaker 3: when you find out. In response, mister Musk reposted pictures
Speaker 3: of Hillary Clinton, Taylor Swift Another's photograph with one arm
Speaker 3: straight out and palmed, saying, frankly, they need better dirty tricks.
Speaker 3: The everyone is hitler attack is so tired, his tweets
Speaker 3: are funny or exposts. Anti Defamation League even acknowledged, and
Speaker 3: I acknowledge that many Americans are on edge. But but Musk,
Speaker 3: in their words, made an awkward gesture in a moment
Speaker 3: of enthusiasm, not a Nazi salute. Thank you, Anti Defamation League.
Speaker 3: We're speaking the truth, as a journal observed mister Musk.
Speaker 3: Mike copped to awkwardness when he appeared on Saturday Night
Speaker 3: Live a few years ago. His monologue included a comedic
Speaker 3: bit about making History Night as the first person with
Speaker 3: Aspergers to host, meaning that I won't make a lot
Speaker 3: of eye contact with the cast to night, but don't worry.
Speaker 3: I'm pretty good at running humid in emulation mode. Also
Speaker 3: recall musk exuberant, if dorky leap at a Trump rally
Speaker 3: last year. Tim Waltz, Democratic vice presidential nominee, mocked him for,
Speaker 3: in his words, skipping like a dip s word. No,
Speaker 3: he's really an ey some Democrats now say Representative Gerald Nadler.
Speaker 3: I never imagine we would see the day when what
Speaker 3: appears to be a Hile Hitler salute would be made
Speaker 3: behind the presidential seal. I urge all of my colleagues
Speaker 3: to unite in condemning this hateful gesture for what it is,
Speaker 3: Anti Semitism. General concludes there it is the birth of
Speaker 3: a partisan talking point and the spreading of disinformation.
Speaker 1: Six fifty six fifty five cars in the talk station.
Speaker 3: Dave Williams Taxpayer Protection Alliance after the news, if you
Speaker 3: can stick around.
Speaker 17: Your voice, thank you for taking that call your country
Speaker 17: gives us all somewhat to think about.
Speaker 1: Fifty five KRC the talk station.
Speaker 6: This report is.
Speaker 3: How about that day Philadelphia Mayor Cheryl Parker is belling? No, No,
Speaker 3: they wouldn't allow her into my organization. That's hilarious, man.
Speaker 3: I just got a big kick out of that. And
Speaker 3: I did not realize until this morning because Joe alerted
Speaker 3: me to the fact that you're a big Philadelphia Eagles fit.
Speaker 3: It's like, oh my god, it can't wait till he
Speaker 3: comes on the show.
Speaker 13: ELXis elexis Yes, the Philadelphia Elexis.
Speaker 1: Yeah, e lg Ses.
Speaker 3: In response to that, after she got thoroughly embarrassed online,
Speaker 3: she said, we don't promise perfection. I'm so happy I
Speaker 3: never have, especially after I couldn't spell Eagles right. She
Speaker 3: just admitted she know how to spell it. Dannyhow Dave
Speaker 3: spent too much time on that. We got quite a
Speaker 3: few topics to go through, including and welcome back. By
Speaker 3: the way, I appreciate what you do. Over at the
Speaker 3: taxpayer Protection lines. We're out of the World Health Organization.
Speaker 3: We were paying for the whole damn thing, weren't we.
Speaker 19: Yeah, I mean we're paying three hundred million, more than
Speaker 19: three hundred million dollars a year, and we are the
Speaker 19: largest contributor to the World Health Organization and this and
Speaker 19: for people, this is a sub agency of the United Nations.
Speaker 1: So that tells you.
Speaker 13: Everything you need to know about the World Health Organization
Speaker 13: right there, and just how efficient and effect effective they are.
Speaker 13: And here's the problem is that we pay the most
Speaker 13: of any other country to the World Health Organization and
Speaker 13: they don't listen to us. They basically ignore everything that
Speaker 13: we say. China pays I think it's like eight or
Speaker 13: ten million dollars a year, and the World Health Organization
Speaker 13: listens to everything that they do. And you know, going
Speaker 13: back to the pandemic in twenty twenty, is that really
Speaker 13: China ran the World Health Organization? The World Health Organization
Speaker 13: said this thing is not you know, you can't spread this.
Speaker 13: It's not airborne. You know, that was the famous tweet
Speaker 13: in February of twenty twenty where they said, the World
Speaker 13: Health Organization said, no, this is not airborne, don't worry,
Speaker 13: You're not going to catch it. Well, we learned differently,
Speaker 13: didn't we.
Speaker 1: No, we did.
Speaker 3: We also learned that those pesky masks don't do a
Speaker 3: damn thing either. But it took them long enough to
Speaker 3: finally acknowledge that I just and six foot stay six
Speaker 3: feet away from each other. Pulled straight out of doctor
Speaker 3: fauci sphincter. I mean, you know, anyhow before we move over,
Speaker 3: go ahead.
Speaker 13: Yeah, there's one last thing about the World Health Organizations.
Speaker 13: They spend twenty one thousand dollars per person on travel
Speaker 13: a year. Now, doctors without Borders they spend two thousand
Speaker 13: dollars a year on travels. So the bureaucracy at the
Speaker 13: WHO is massive. They are staying in five star hotels
Speaker 13: or flying first class. This is what this agency is
Speaker 13: doing with our taxpayer money. So what President Trump did,
Speaker 13: and he did this eight years ago, was get rid
Speaker 13: of funding of the World Health Organization. A fantastic move
Speaker 13: and it needed to.
Speaker 1: Be done well.
Speaker 3: Since you did mention the United Nations, what about just
Speaker 3: getting out of the United Nations another ridiculously expensive organization
Speaker 3: we pay the most for and get the least out of.
Speaker 3: How can you have human rights abusing countries on the
Speaker 3: Human Rights Commission within the UN just one of a
Speaker 3: countless list of backcrap in sanity coming out of the
Speaker 3: United Nations. They hate us there.
Speaker 13: They hate us, and when China has veto power over
Speaker 13: any resolution that comes be forward. Obviously, this is not
Speaker 13: an organization that we should be sending billions. I mean
Speaker 13: the United Nations. We're spending eight to ten billion dollars
Speaker 13: a year again to be ignored and for our interests
Speaker 13: not to be listened to.
Speaker 3: Well, I guess one of the reasons we stay is
Speaker 3: it probably provides a wonderful spy mechanism so we can
Speaker 3: keep our eyes and tabs on other countries. But also,
Speaker 3: since we enjoy the VTA power, it can stop in
Speaker 3: its tracks efforts to I guess, run over our freedoms
Speaker 3: and liberties here in the United States.
Speaker 13: At a very high price tag.
Speaker 1: For sure, Well, it is, and we don't have to
Speaker 1: pay that much. All right.
Speaker 3: Over to the Paris Agreement. I had Ken Blackwell on
Speaker 3: earlier in the program, and I I was praying this
Speaker 3: day would come. It appears based upon Trump's executive orders,
Speaker 3: including getting us out of the Paris Climate Agreement, the
Speaker 3: ev order, the drill baby drill comments, the expansion of energy,
Speaker 3: and that we're moving away from climate alarmism, the religion
Speaker 3: that is the climate change.
Speaker 13: I tell you, Brian. I think this is going to
Speaker 13: be the sleeper issue of this Congress is if we
Speaker 13: start drilling, you know, getting out of the Paris Climate Accords,
Speaker 13: getting rid of the ev mandates. I think this is
Speaker 13: the one item that could really help us reduce inflation,
Speaker 13: bring down the cost of energy, right, get rid of
Speaker 13: these subsidies. The Inflation Reduction Act, which really set the
Speaker 13: tone for hundreds of billions of dollars in green energy.
Speaker 13: If we can repeal that, I think we're going to
Speaker 13: really get a handle on inflation. Because energy drives everything
Speaker 13: in this country, no pun intended, but if you're talking
Speaker 13: about moving goods from one part of the country to
Speaker 13: the other, you bring down energy costs. You bring down
Speaker 13: those costs home heating, just going to the gas station
Speaker 13: and filling up. So this has the potential of having
Speaker 13: the big impact on the economy.
Speaker 3: Well, you know, it'd be nice if we maybe built
Speaker 3: a couple of new refineries as well. That also would
Speaker 3: lower the price of the gasoline and diesel that we have.
Speaker 13: A nuclear power plans, nuclear power plants. Private companies are
Speaker 13: doing this. You have Google, you have Amazon, you have
Speaker 13: Microsoft that have these huge data centers that are saying, listen,
Speaker 13: we are going to build our own nuclear power plants,
Speaker 13: these small nuclear power plants to address these energy needs.
Speaker 13: Why can't we do that as a country. Again, it's
Speaker 13: going to bring down the cost of energy tremendously.
Speaker 3: Well, that's something else I broughduct to ken that exact point.
Speaker 3: The huge players in artificial intelligence, You just rotted them up.
Speaker 3: I think that's one of the reasons they were standing
Speaker 3: on the stage during the inauguration. They know that they
Speaker 3: are going to have an opportunity to do just that
Speaker 3: under the Trump administrations all of the above energy policies,
Speaker 3: whereas the Biden administration and the green alarmists just for
Speaker 3: whatever insane reason, do not want nuclear plants built and
Speaker 3: day since they don't produce any pollutants or carbon dioxide.
Speaker 3: What's the problem with an abundance of electricity on a
Speaker 3: very small footprint. That are the modern nuclear plants, those
Speaker 3: modular plants that they're able to build now, that don't
Speaker 3: take as much time, money, or require a ridiculous amounts
Speaker 3: of water.
Speaker 13: And nuclear is renewable. That's what drives the lefties up
Speaker 13: a wall is that nuclear is renewable and it is clean,
Speaker 13: and you mentioned artificial intelligence. One of the executive orders
Speaker 13: that Trump rescinded from Joe Biden was his Artificial Intelligence
Speaker 13: Executive Order, basically saying that the federal government has to
Speaker 13: review all AI development in this country. I mean, that's
Speaker 13: absolutely ludicrous, and this is no lie of Brian. This
Speaker 13: is no lie that Joe Biden. The reason why he
Speaker 13: instituted this executive order was he watched the movie Mission Impossible,
Speaker 13: remember the last ones, like two or three years ago,
Speaker 13: where this big AI machine took over the world and
Speaker 13: the big doomsday scenario. Yes, he literally said, this is
Speaker 13: why we need an AI executive order is because AI
Speaker 13: could destroy the world. I mean he's watching movies. Joe
Speaker 13: Biden watched movies and based federal policy off of that.
Speaker 13: I am not lying. This was the most ludicrous and
Speaker 13: a lot of ludicrous things happened during the Mind administration.
Speaker 13: It just it baffles me how we can live in
Speaker 13: a country like that.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's there's the South Park episode about the trapper
Speaker 3: Keeper that expanded and became prescient.
Speaker 1: I just think about that too.
Speaker 3: Maybe he saw that episode as well, but you know,
Speaker 3: pause for a moment and just think about whether whether
Speaker 3: there was any legitimacy beside behind Joe Biden's concerns, but
Speaker 3: that the federal government would be would have oversight over
Speaker 3: the development of artificial intelligence. I mean, there is no
Speaker 3: intelligence in the federal government. They don't have any experts
Speaker 3: there that have any could have any possible benefit beneficial
Speaker 3: say in the matter. I mean, it's just crazy to
Speaker 3: even think of.
Speaker 13: And the government has never done anything correctly.
Speaker 20: Look it up.
Speaker 13: Look at the Internet. There's a light regular, a light
Speaker 13: regulatory touch on the Internet right now. It is flourishing,
Speaker 13: it is prospering. The government tried to put these net
Speaker 13: neutrality rules, which was turned it into utility. That would
Speaker 13: have killed the Internet. You know, private investment in the
Speaker 13: Internet has just gone off the rails because there's a
Speaker 13: light regulatory touch on it. And the same thing for
Speaker 13: artificial intelligence. We want to be the leaders in this.
Speaker 13: We don't want Europe, we don't want other countries to
Speaker 13: be the leaders. So there has to be well I'm
Speaker 13: not saying just ignore it completely, but there has to
Speaker 13: be a very light regulatory touch on artificial intelligence.
Speaker 3: Well, the reason it works so well is because entrepreneurs
Speaker 3: went at it and know and had one thing motivating
Speaker 3: them profit. The government is not interested in making profit.
Speaker 3: They're not looking out for that. They're looking for just
Speaker 3: ways to be obstructionists. Anyhow, we'll bring Dave back and
Speaker 3: we'll talk a little bit about well Trump tax cuts
Speaker 3: among others with Dave Williams again for the Taxpayer Protection
Speaker 3: Alliance online at Protecting Taxpayers dot org. Money very important
Speaker 3: topic and I like saving money and I don't like
Speaker 3: spending money, especially if there's no reason for a particular
Speaker 3: service to cost outrageous amounts when you can get it
Speaker 3: for profit with a company that is for profit. I'm
Speaker 3: talking imaging, medical imaging. The hospital imaging center is all
Speaker 3: interested in profit, of course they are, but that's where
Speaker 3: you get really taken to the cleaners. Five thousand dollars
Speaker 3: for a CD scan, but affordable imaging services where they
Speaker 3: still make a profit. A CT scan with a contrast
Speaker 3: is six hundred dollars and yes it includes the board
Speaker 3: certified radiologist report. I have my last set there and
Speaker 3: I'm going to get my next one, which is in April.
Speaker 3: Affordable imaging services, it's easy to do, very very low overhead.
Speaker 3: I'm trying. I'm warning you ahad of time. I don't
Speaker 3: spend a whole bunch of bells and whizzles, but they
Speaker 3: got the same equipment. The hospitals use medical professionals operating it. Again,
Speaker 3: the radiologist report comes with it, so whether it's an
Speaker 3: mri CT scan, echo cardiogram, ultrasound, lung screening, or cardiac scoring,
Speaker 3: a just a slice of the price at the hospital
Speaker 3: imaging department will charge you. It's a new calendar year.
Speaker 3: You probably got a new out of pocket responsibility. You
Speaker 3: gotta check for five thousand dollars you want to write
Speaker 3: out of your checking account.
Speaker 1: Don't do that.
Speaker 3: You have a choice when it comes to your medical care.
Speaker 3: Affordable imaging services can be reached at five one three
Speaker 3: seven five three eight thousand, five one three seven, five
Speaker 3: three eight thousand. You can find them online at Affordable
Speaker 3: medimaging dot com.
Speaker 6: This is fifty five KRC and iHeartRadio station.
Speaker 1: As your Channel nine weather forecast.
Speaker 3: Yes, I'm going to go up to thirty one degrees today,
Speaker 3: may get some flurries this afternoon, of course, cloudy skies
Speaker 3: for that. We'll have an overnight low of nine twenty
Speaker 3: five to high with sunny skies Tomorrow thirteen overnight and
Speaker 3: a cloudy Saturday. But I have a forty one eighteen
Speaker 3: degrees right now. Time for traffic stop.
Speaker 9: Toning two seventy five well cost you a couple of
Speaker 9: extra minutes between the Lawrence per ramp and the work
Speaker 9: on the Carrol Crawtford Bridge. Traffic elsewhere on the highways
Speaker 9: not all that bad cruiser cleaning up in three car
Speaker 9: wreck on Beakman hot Hopple watermain break has you down
Speaker 9: to one mine in each direction on Witton at McKelvey,
Speaker 9: Chuck Ingram on fifty five krc the talk station.
Speaker 3: It is seven nineteen fast approaching seven twenty here fifty
Speaker 3: five KRCD talk station and I very happy Friday. Evie
Speaker 3: tax Payer protection lines Dave Williams on the phone talking well,
Speaker 3: tax payer protection line stuff. And one of the things,
Speaker 3: you know, I just before we move away from the
Speaker 3: energy policy, I just have to put an exclamation point
Speaker 3: on you know. I always sort of questioned in the
Speaker 3: back of my mind, Dave, when Trump said I am
Speaker 3: going to bring down inflation. That's a pretty bold statement
Speaker 3: because so many things are impact inflation. But one thing
Speaker 3: he certainly does have the ability to do is bring
Speaker 3: down the cost of energy along the lines of what
Speaker 3: we were talking about, and ergo lower the price of
Speaker 3: gasoline and diesel. That will certainly have be a vehicle
Speaker 3: to lower the price of goods and services in this country.
Speaker 3: I mean, it has a tangible, understandable benefit that people
Speaker 3: can wrap their heads around.
Speaker 20: Yeah. Absolutely.
Speaker 13: And look at Joe Biden's first thing that he did
Speaker 13: when he came into office four years ago is he
Speaker 13: canceled the Keystone Xcel pipeline.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 13: Now, this is the pipeline from Canada to the US
Speaker 13: that was going to bring eight hundred thousand barrels of
Speaker 13: oil a day into this country. That would have, I
Speaker 13: think prevented a lot of the inflation that we saw.
Speaker 13: I wouldn't have prevented all of it, but again, energy
Speaker 13: has tied to so many different things, and so it
Speaker 13: was a huge mistake by Joe Biden. And you know,
Speaker 13: and you're right when Trump says he wants to bring
Speaker 13: down inflation. That's the key to it. I think that's
Speaker 13: the foundation of it. And there's a lot more to do,
Speaker 13: but it's a great start.
Speaker 1: It is.
Speaker 3: And you know, the other ridiculous component of that, you know,
Speaker 3: is shutting down the building of the Keystone pipeline that
Speaker 3: just creates has more pollution. The Canada was not going
Speaker 3: to stop drilling. They were pulling it, going to extract
Speaker 3: that stuff out of the ground and put it into
Speaker 3: the world for consumption, regardless of whether the Keystone pipeline
Speaker 3: exists or not. So what do they do instead of
Speaker 3: the pipeline. They put it on to two trains, right,
Speaker 3: which run by diesel last time I checked. So you're
Speaker 3: belching on additional carbon and into the atmosphere because of
Speaker 3: the mechanism they used to ship it. It didn't stop
Speaker 3: the project or the use. It just stopped. It's the
Speaker 3: vehicle by which it was shipped. And if certainly a
Speaker 3: pipeline is far more efficient and more environmentally sound than
Speaker 3: put them on railroad cars.
Speaker 13: Yeah, absolutely, And it was just frustrating to see such
Speaker 13: short sightedness in the Biden administration really on so many levels,
Speaker 13: but especially energy.
Speaker 3: Well, given the stop and start nature of that project,
Speaker 3: I'll be surprised if they want to continue to go
Speaker 3: forward with it, because if we don't keep this form
Speaker 3: of administration, somebody down the road will stop it.
Speaker 4: Anyway.
Speaker 1: Hurry up and build it right anyway, Act while you
Speaker 1: have a chance.
Speaker 4: All right.
Speaker 3: We need to keep the Trump tax cuts in place.
Speaker 3: And I noted from your website again Protecting Taxpayers dot
Speaker 3: Org right there on front countdown to expiring tax cuts.
Speaker 3: Congress must act to protect consumers and businesses. It's going
Speaker 3: to be a real problem for us if these tax
Speaker 3: cuts expire. I've seen all kinds of horrific figures related
Speaker 3: to this.
Speaker 13: Yeah, I'm really concerned because I'm mean, look at the
Speaker 13: marginal tax rates. Those were reduced in twenty seventeen, and
Speaker 13: Congress has until the end of the year and they
Speaker 13: are very slow. I don't know if you've noticed, is Brian,
Speaker 13: the Congress tends to be very slow when they do things.
Speaker 13: And I'm just concerned that the clock is going to
Speaker 13: keep on ticking and we're going to get to October
Speaker 13: and November and they're going to say, oh no, we
Speaker 13: have to do something, and they're going to open up
Speaker 13: the tax bill and they're going to put all sorts
Speaker 13: of nonsense in it, and they're talking about one thing
Speaker 13: in particular, is to raise the corporate tax rate. Huge mistake.
Speaker 13: Right now, the corporate tax rate is at twenty one percent,
Speaker 13: and as far as the rest of the world, it's
Speaker 13: somewhat competitive. It's not the lowest, but it's a lot
Speaker 13: better than forty percent than what we had in twenty seventeen.
Speaker 13: And if they use that as a negotiating tool, oh
Speaker 13: goodness gracious. I mean, if they increase it to twenty
Speaker 13: five or twenty eight percent the corporate tax rate, it's
Speaker 13: really going to have a massive effect on business. Therefore,
Speaker 13: so that I have a lot of effect on the
Speaker 13: economy in this country. So I just get this done
Speaker 13: and do it the right way, and don't wait till
Speaker 13: the last minute.
Speaker 3: Well, they always wait to the last minute for a
Speaker 3: variety of reasons, Dave. And you know, my question has
Speaker 3: always been why didn't they make the tax cut permanent?
Speaker 3: And if another Congress down the road wants to raise taxes,
Speaker 3: force them to go through the legislative process to do it.
Speaker 13: And that's exactly what we argued in twenty seventeen, is
Speaker 13: make these tax cuts permanent. And of course they didn't,
Speaker 13: and here we are. You know, Congress never sees the
Speaker 13: five or six or ten years down the road. They
Speaker 13: always look at the present and you know, let mean
Speaker 13: look at Medicare and Social Security that are going bank
Speaker 13: dropt they're saying, don't worry, that's you know, that's twenty
Speaker 13: years you know down the road. Oh well, now it's
Speaker 13: ten years down the road. It's five years. I mean
Speaker 13: it's coming up. And Congress is never prepared for any
Speaker 13: of this. And it's not as if they don't have
Speaker 13: the information. They've had this information for decades and it's
Speaker 13: just they've refused to do anything about it.
Speaker 3: Yeah, well they check their fund and Bloonney jobs. Dave
Speaker 3: Williams tax Payer Protection Lines, big Eagles fan. I'm sorry,

Speaker 3: because a lot of people struggling and dealing with on

Speaker 3: hip pain. And you probably have done the steroid injections,
Speaker 3: You probably had pain medications, and maybe you've talked with
Speaker 3: your doctor about surgery. Think of the downtime, the risk
Speaker 3: associated with surgery. You know, there's a lot of reasons
Speaker 3: to consider calling QC Kinetics to find out if natural

Speaker 3: It's seven thirty coming up at seven thirty one to
Speaker 3: fifty five KRCD Talk station. Well, we have a new
Speaker 3: day in the America, a new down and maybe the
Speaker 3: end of climate religion. Just talking about that with Ken
Speaker 3: Blackwell earlier, we talked a little bit about with Dave
Speaker 3: Voyage from the Taxpayer Protect Alliance, and we continue Ohio
Speaker 3: energy poly discussion with Donovan and Neil from Americans for Prosperity.
Speaker 3: Welcome back to the fifty five carse Morning Show. My friend,
Speaker 3: always good to.
Speaker 4: Have you on.
Speaker 1: Brian glad to be here.
Speaker 3: Well, and you got a shot of adrenaline to a
Speaker 3: reform energy policy in Ohio. After the Donald Trump announcements
Speaker 3: pulled us out of the Paris Accord, all of the
Speaker 3: above energy strategy, which means all of the above we
Speaker 3: get rid of the ev mandate, which is just ridiculous,
Speaker 3: and probably the end of green subsidies because he put
Speaker 3: a halt to the green projects under the Inflation Reduction Act,
Speaker 3: which it wasn't. This is positive, positive steps in the
Speaker 3: right direction to lower our energy bills and create energy independence,
Speaker 3: is it not?
Speaker 8: It absolutely is.
Speaker 21: From what President Trump has done in the first forty
Speaker 21: eight hours in the White House to what you know
Speaker 21: the Republican majorities in Congress have indicated are going to
Speaker 21: be top priorities, down to what leadership here in Columbus,
Speaker 21: here in Ohio and the House and Senate have indicated
Speaker 21: as top priorities when it comes to energy. This is great, Brian,
Speaker 21: because this is what we had heard when we were
Speaker 21: out there on the doors we were doing all these
Speaker 21: gas station price rollback events and other things last year
Speaker 21: talking to folks around the state of Ohio. People are
Speaker 21: feeling the pain in a lot of ways, but energy
Speaker 21: and the rise and cost energy is one of them.
Speaker 21: And we're excited to see so many of our leaders
Speaker 21: taking this up as a top priority early in the
Speaker 21: legislative calendar this year.
Speaker 3: Yeah, as I observed earlier in our discussions with the
Speaker 3: other folks. You know, this is one profoundly concrete example
Speaker 3: of how we can lower the inflation rate, lower the
Speaker 3: prices of goods and service because everything we eat and
Speaker 3: consume is of course shipped somewhere by a semi tractor trailer,
Speaker 3: and you have to have energy keep the lights on.
Speaker 3: The electricity bill has been going through the roof because
Speaker 3: of these great, ridiculous green energy subsidies which do nothing
Speaker 3: to increase efficiencies or provide more electricity, just divert precious
Speaker 3: dollar resources to chasing our tail carbon reduction projects. I mean,
Speaker 3: it's it's going to lower our energy bills. It's period,
Speaker 3: end of story. I don't think anybody can argue against
Speaker 3: that from an economic standpoint. You know, more supply cheaper,
Speaker 3: it's going to be cheaper.
Speaker 21: Well, and that's yeah. So we put out a study
Speaker 21: actually yesterday alongside the Buckeye Institute to lay out some
Speaker 21: principles six principles in particular that lawmakers here in the
Speaker 21: state of Ohio. I think these things apply to the
Speaker 21: federal government as well, but we're targeting the state of
Speaker 21: Ohio with this report that really will get to the
Speaker 21: heart of free market energy solutions. What we want to
Speaker 21: see as an abundance approach to energy policy making, where
Speaker 21: we increase the supply of energy. We're rather than trying
Speaker 21: to find different gimmicks or subsidies or other other goofy
Speaker 21: mechanisms to try to bring relief because they don't work.
Speaker 21: They haven't worked for years. It's time that we embrace
Speaker 21: the free market and an abundance supply for energy policy making.
Speaker 3: Well, are you Americans for Prosperity and the Buckeye Institute
Speaker 3: also pushing and I hope the answer is yes, nuclear
Speaker 3: plants because that's one thing that would generate an abundance
Speaker 3: of electricity.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 21: I mean, it's a great form of reliable energy, right, Brian.
Speaker 21: And that's really what we need, is we need energy
Speaker 21: that you can also call.
Speaker 4: Up on demand.
Speaker 21: Right as we have these spikes, so you have these
Speaker 21: cold blasts like we just experienced, we may need a
Speaker 21: little more energy and so absolutely nuclear is part of
Speaker 21: that picture. Indiana, I don't know if you saw this,
Speaker 21: but Mike Brawn just announced they're putting one of those
Speaker 21: modular nuclear facilities, and I believe out there talking to
Speaker 21: my colleague in the Indiana AFP chapter about that yesterday.
Speaker 1: It stuff happening, Brian, we need to embrace it.
Speaker 3: Well, we need to embrace it. You know that that's wonderful.
Speaker 3: But why does Indiana get to pave the way? Why
Speaker 3: can't we do it? I mean, can we take a
Speaker 3: queue from the front. Can we take a queue from
Speaker 3: the French? I mean the French are They have a
Speaker 3: ton of nuclear plants, so much so that Germany, which
Speaker 3: cut its own throat, the former economic powerhouse of the
Speaker 3: European Union, trying to rely on the sun and the
Speaker 3: wind to generate power. Guess what, the sign ain't shine
Speaker 3: and the wind ain't blowing right now. They had to
Speaker 3: tap into France's abundance of energy to keep their lights
Speaker 3: on in Germany. I mean, come on, we can't learn
Speaker 3: the lessons from these folks.
Speaker 21: Well, I mean, that's that's absolutely part of it. Well,
Speaker 21: when you think about the onshoreing talking internationally now, right,
Speaker 21: you know, if we're going to try to bring these
Speaker 21: manufacturing jobs back to the United States, those don't run
Speaker 21: on faery, dust and hopes and dreams, right, Those factories
Speaker 21: take a lot of power to operate. Manufacturers need cheap, affordable,
Speaker 21: reliable energy in order to create their facility to open
Speaker 21: their facilities up and create the jobs that so many
Speaker 21: Americans are hungry for. That only comes with good free
Speaker 21: market energy policy that will embrace abundance in our energy.
Speaker 1: Sector rather than.
Speaker 21: An over reliance on unreliable storm sources of energy.
Speaker 3: And if you can demonstrate that you have a underscore
Speaker 3: of the word reliable energy source that produces an electricity
Speaker 3: at less or less money, and you have generally energy
Speaker 3: policies in this country or most notably even just the
Speaker 3: state of Ohio that allow for a cheaper energy bill,
Speaker 3: that is going to be a magnet for global corporations
Speaker 3: to want to come here and settle down. I mean,
Speaker 3: we obviously are far more competitive than the European Union
Speaker 3: when it comes to this stuff. The door's open, the
Speaker 3: water's warm, come on in.
Speaker 21: Yeah, well that's something you know. Senate President Rob McCauley had.
Speaker 21: I've had the opportunity to hear him speak about some
Speaker 21: of the some of his vision for this legislative session,
Speaker 21: And when he talks about energy, that's sort of the
Speaker 21: vision he's casting here, which is, look, we're sitting on
Speaker 21: an abundance of a great natural resource. We are, you
Speaker 21: know that.
Speaker 8: Being natural gas.
Speaker 21: We have a steady, reliable political or environment here, right,
Speaker 21: and that we've got conservative leadership in the House, the Senate,
Speaker 21: and the governor's mansion where we ought to be able
Speaker 21: to You know, Republicans tend to be the party of
Speaker 21: free markets and abundance, right, so we want to bring
Speaker 21: we have to be able to bring these jobs here.
Speaker 21: We have to be able to have folks who want
Speaker 21: to cite their projects here have the comfort of knowing
Speaker 21: that their projects will still be viable ten years down
Speaker 21: the road. Where in states like New York or New Jersey,
Speaker 21: where they're very progressive, right Brian, they're going to maybe
Speaker 21: pull the rug out from under a natural gas facility,
Speaker 21: and so there's no desire to invest there. We can
Speaker 21: do that here on I. We can invest in that energy,
Speaker 21: we can bring those jobs to the state, and we
Speaker 21: can make some really great things happen over.
Speaker 4: The next decade.
Speaker 3: And all it takes is getting out of the way.
Speaker 3: I mean, nothing causes more energy to be more expensive
Speaker 3: than government regulations. I mean the edicts and mandates in
Speaker 3: pursuit of this impossible to catch carbon elimination. It's only
Speaker 3: because of that that we have high energy bills. It's
Speaker 3: just we Again, I always go back to it's we're
Speaker 3: cutting our own throat. We're making our lives miserable just
Speaker 3: because someone waved a pen and signed a piece of
Speaker 3: legislation forcing people to do something the otherwise wouldn't do.
Speaker 4: Well.
Speaker 21: Yeah, And I mean one of the most recent examples
Speaker 21: of that was in the Inflation Reduction Act. Part of
Speaker 21: the requirements there around coal were to implement so called
Speaker 21: clean coal technologies that don't even actually exist or viable
Speaker 21: right now, and so facto killing a form of energy
Speaker 21: production by creating an unachievable bar for this industry of meat.
Speaker 21: And that's two principles that we drive that here in
Speaker 21: this report with the Bucket Institute. Was ending subsidies that
Speaker 21: hide the real cost of energy right yep, or distort
Speaker 21: the energy market. And then also getting to making sure
Speaker 21: environmental policies actually promote well being rather than desired public
Speaker 21: policy outcomes or favorite interests.
Speaker 4: Right.
Speaker 1: We do those some of those.
Speaker 21: Things, we're going to have a better product. We're going
Speaker 21: to have and when we're going to get that energy
Speaker 21: we need at the price that it ought to be.
Speaker 3: Well, and as you noted earlier, the Republicans control Columbus
Speaker 3: and ergo which direction we go in? Do the Republicans
Speaker 3: have the will to take on these challenges in the
Speaker 3: face of the Greta thunbirds of the world frowning and
Speaker 3: waving their finger at them.
Speaker 21: I think they would do it gleefully. Brian, Well, the
Speaker 21: early signals are. I think what we'll see later today
Speaker 21: actually is there will be a press conference I believe
Speaker 21: is happening today.
Speaker 8: It's supposed happening yesterday.
Speaker 21: It might happen today from the House introducing their energy legislation.
Speaker 21: We haven't seen the details of it yet, but from
Speaker 21: what we hear, it should be very much in the
Speaker 21: vein of what we're talking about.
Speaker 4: Good.
Speaker 1: The Senate has.
Speaker 21: Already introduced a placeholder bill with the Senator Ryanikey from
Speaker 21: North central Ohio, Senate Bill two, and that will be
Speaker 21: the Senate we're told that will be the Senates version
Speaker 21: of energy legislation that'll get to the heart of a
Speaker 21: lot of the problem we've been seeing. So there's already
Speaker 21: movement in Columbus on tackling some of these things, and
Speaker 21: I think we'll see some really exciting opportunities.
Speaker 1: Oh, that's wonderful.
Speaker 3: Well, you know you have a spot here in the
Speaker 3: fifty five Cassey Morning Show to bring the details to
Speaker 3: our attention. If something gets handed out that we can
Speaker 3: all take a look at. And I'll remain cautiously optimistic
Speaker 3: that I would think that Donald Trump has opened the
Speaker 3: door to actually get something done. You know, he's on
Speaker 3: board with this, so we should get on board with this.
Speaker 3: And you can say it's consistent with the federal government's
Speaker 3: policy on energy all the above strategy. We need efficient,
Speaker 3: we need reliable, and that's what we're going to do
Speaker 3: here in Ohio. And let's be the first state to
Speaker 3: embrace this, get back ahead of Indiana.
Speaker 4: It's why we put this report out.
Speaker 21: We wanted to be able to give lawmakers the foundational
Speaker 21: principles to be able to go out and do the
Speaker 21: hard work of policymaking, legislating, but do it in the
Speaker 21: right way, not in the way they've been doing it
Speaker 21: for the past couple decades.
Speaker 3: Dave Foy Part Company this morning, I can't thank you
Speaker 3: enough for bringing this to our attention, our meeting me
Speaker 3: and my collective list office, not the Royal weed. Is
Speaker 3: there someplace or is there anything my listeners can do?
Speaker 3: To try to advance this. We just wait and keep
Speaker 3: our powder dry until the legislation gets rolled out. And
Speaker 3: if there is any of the above, what's the website
Speaker 3: we should consult to get the details on what you
Speaker 3: guys are doing.
Speaker 21: Yeah, well, actually, go visit our friends at the Buckeye
Speaker 21: Institute Buckeyeinstitute dot com.
Speaker 4: Go visit them.
Speaker 21: This report I've been talking about through the show is
Speaker 21: available there. We developed it because we want more people
Speaker 21: to be able to understand the past twenty five years
Speaker 21: of energy policy making that sort of got us where
Speaker 21: we are today, but then also have some principles they
Speaker 21: can embrace and take to their lawmakers and encourage them
Speaker 21: to apply these principles like ending subsidies or you know
Speaker 21: the environmental overrease that's happening in our country today. Go
Speaker 21: to Buckeyeinstitute dot com. Check them out, check out their report,
Speaker 21: and let us know what you think about it.
Speaker 3: Dave Williams can thank you enough for the details and
Speaker 3: the information. I'll look forward to having you back on

Speaker 3: never too late to consult the experts that cover Sincy
Speaker 3: about your medical insurance because you're paying too much. I
Speaker 3: can pretty much definitively stay that as your broker. They
Speaker 3: work for you and they have your best interest in minds.
Speaker 3: If you like a financial planner, they have to keep

Speaker 3: with insurance companies, a couple of hundred of them, and
Speaker 3: they have access to thousands of different insurance policies. There's
Speaker 3: a multitude of types of medical insurance out there. Allows
Speaker 3: them to layer policies so you have different policies for
Speaker 3: different experiences like the you know, the run of the
Speaker 3: mill physician checkup or the catastrophic hospitals stay. You won't
Speaker 3: have the massive out of pocket reliability that you currently have.
Speaker 3: Couples under sixty five save in between five thousand and
Speaker 3: a thousand, five and one thousand dollars a month with
Speaker 3: better coverage. That's absolutely true. And if you're a small business,

Speaker 3: You can have better employee retention. And even if you're

Speaker 3: will be I can say that with confidence. I've talked

Speaker 3: eyes to the multitude of different ways that most insurance
Speaker 3: brokers or agents out there don't even know about. It's

Speaker 3: Here at fifty five KRCD Talk station FOP President Ken
Speaker 3: Cober are going to join the program on top of
Speaker 3: the our News late edition of the show. He'll address
Speaker 3: his comments about his well not being real. Thrilled with
Speaker 3: Donald Trump's pardoning of the Jay six ers, because of
Speaker 3: course some police were injured. But it's a little murky
Speaker 3: on the details on that, and as I was looking
Speaker 3: into the fun facts related to those, how many really
Speaker 3: did die? A lot of them committed There were four suicides.
Speaker 3: Four police officers committed suicide, not at the event minding,
Speaker 3: but in the days and months after the riot, And
Speaker 3: they keep attributing these suicides to the event itself. So
Speaker 3: one I saw this report on it, Police officer Jeffrey Smith,
Speaker 3: thirty five years old, the reportedly injured in the riots,
Speaker 3: committed suicide. His wife talking to The Washington Post that
Speaker 3: her husband related her the fear and panickey experience the
Speaker 3: day of the assault in the Capitol, and he was
Speaker 3: afraid he might die. Well, pause and think, what is
Speaker 3: a police officer's job. I'm not going to excuse the
Speaker 3: stupidity of so many the Jay sixers or the behavior
Speaker 3: of some of them, not all of them, But that's
Speaker 3: the nature of your job. Any given day of the week,
Speaker 3: as a police officer, you may very well be facing
Speaker 3: one angry mob. I go back to thinking about the
Speaker 3: BLM riots and the anti file and all that kind
Speaker 3: of stuff. Yeah, I bet there's some officers that were
Speaker 3: a little fearful of their life after they got blown
Speaker 3: up with firework explosions and bombs and frozen water bottles?
Speaker 3: Would you want to get up and go to work
Speaker 3: after something like that? The defund the police movement. My
Speaker 3: sister told me the story of an officer who lived
Speaker 3: down and over the Rhine could not wear her uniform
Speaker 3: going to work because of the angry screams and calls
Speaker 3: against the police department. Her job is to protect and
Speaker 3: serve the very people that are yelling at her and
Speaker 3: belittling her with well some pretty foul language. So yeah, sorry,
Speaker 3: but some people are not up to the challenge. And
Speaker 3: I feel badly for any family had to deal with
Speaker 3: a suicide, and I feel terribly for people who are
Speaker 3: struggling with mental health issues such as they have suicidal ideation.
Speaker 3: But you know, I don't think you can draw the
Speaker 3: line from point A to point B on that there's
Speaker 3: something wrong with the person who would commit suicide for
Speaker 3: literally engaging in the activity that they signed up for
Speaker 3: and chose as a career patriot, true patriot, Jeff, welcome
Speaker 3: to the program. It's always good to hear from you.
Speaker 8: Hey, Brian. As always, you and Enjoy are true patriots, Buddy.
Speaker 1: I love hearing that man what's on your mind today.
Speaker 8: Well, it's it's like what you were saying, it's it really,
Speaker 8: really really upsets me when people are full of hypocrisy.
Speaker 8: As far as you and I know, as as far
Speaker 8: as I've known for decades, the Democrats have always been
Speaker 8: the party of we should let a thousand people go
Speaker 8: just to make sure we don't imprison an innocent person.
Speaker 8: You know, they've always been that way. But here is
Speaker 8: a blatant thing of you putting fifteen hundred people in
Speaker 8: prison with no evidence whatsoever, no charges whatsoever, and yet
Speaker 8: they're okay with that. But I get I was so
Speaker 8: angry last night when I saw Anderson Cooper sitting there
Speaker 8: all blatantly well, I found these ones and twos, and
Speaker 8: I found this one person that they did this horrible thing.
Speaker 8: And I saw this one person that they did this
Speaker 8: horrible thing. And I'm sit here thinking fifteen hundred people
Speaker 8: had to pay for that, And then I looked at
Speaker 8: of course, when Tucker came out with the actual videos
Speaker 8: that they didn't show us, that didn't show people breaking
Speaker 8: and attacking officers. No, they showed people walking down the
Speaker 8: halls of the capital being so honored with the even
Speaker 8: being in the building. They were picking up paper on
Speaker 8: the floor and picking up cards and reorganizing them and
Speaker 8: putting them back on deaths and people taking selfies in
Speaker 8: front of different rooms and different items in the I mean,
Speaker 8: talk about a totally different thing we were told happened.
Speaker 8: And yet here's fifteen hundred people, citizens of the country
Speaker 8: in their own house and they had to be put
Speaker 8: in prison for up to three years. I can't even imagine.
Speaker 8: I can't even imagine. And they did have a single
Speaker 8: person that committed suicide and they're waiting to be charged,
Speaker 8: and his family literally said he willingly finally broke down
Speaker 8: and said, yes, I'm guilty of breaking into the building.
Speaker 8: Yes I'm guilty of this. Yes I'm guilty of that.
Speaker 8: Please charge me and start me on my punishment. And
Speaker 8: they never did, and so he just killed himself. And
Speaker 8: I'm sitting there thinking, oh my god, I mean, how
Speaker 8: do you explain this to anyone that you had fifteen
Speaker 8: hundred people, maybe some that literally just showed up that
Speaker 8: day to protest something they thought was wrong. Maybe they
Speaker 8: were right, maybe they were wrong, but they just protested.
Speaker 8: And then they walked into a building that maybe one
Speaker 8: or two people broke windows in or broke doors open,
Speaker 8: or honestly, the doors were unlocked and they were let in,
Speaker 8: and you made them sit in a prison for three years.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and I just real quick because we've got to go. Jeff,
Speaker 3: I'm not going to disagree with most anything you said,
Speaker 3: except I don't know that all fifteen hundred ended up
Speaker 3: in jail. They were subject to prosecution. Trespass may have
Speaker 3: been one of the lower level crimes that they committed,
Speaker 3: but in legal jeopardy if not already prosecuted or put
Speaker 3: into prison pending charges. Good point, Jeff, I always appreciate
Speaker 3: hearing from you, brother, have a wonderful day. Stick around
Speaker 3: after the top of the our news FLP President Ken
Speaker 3: Cover on that topic, sort of tangentially speaking coming out
Speaker 3: against Donald Trump's j six pardons.
Speaker 1: We'll get him. And then Jay Ratliffe at eight thirty
Speaker 1: stick around.

Speaker 3: media aviation experts coming up at bottom.
Speaker 1: Of the hour.
Speaker 3: Always love those conversations, Jay, and I always love to
Speaker 3: talking with FOP President Ken Coverer. He is a head
Speaker 3: of the Sincinni Police Departments Union Chapter sixty nine.
Speaker 1: Welcome back, Kencobra. It's pleasure to have you on the
Speaker 1: program again.
Speaker 20: Hey Brian, how are you? Thanks for having me.
Speaker 1: I'm doing really well. I guess.
Speaker 3: I don't know if you've got a near full or
Speaker 3: people are supportive of what you said. I know you're
Speaker 3: I believe your word was frustrated or you believe it's
Speaker 3: frustrating that Donald Trump pardoned the pretty much all of
Speaker 3: the J six rioters.
Speaker 1: Can you explain why it is you.
Speaker 3: Take that position, because you know, people look at Biden's
Speaker 3: pardons of you know, all kinds of criminals of all sorts,
Speaker 3: commutations of sentence, if not pardons outright, he did it
Speaker 3: thousands of them before he left office. And I don't
Speaker 3: know if Donald Trump just felt he was obligated to
Speaker 3: pardon these folks. But I think many people in my
Speaker 3: list in the audience believe that while there were some
Speaker 3: violent people in there, and no one can excuse violence,
Speaker 3: most notably against police officers, but that a lot of
Speaker 3: them were being prosecuted or at least face prosecution for
Speaker 3: something as simple as walking through the capital doors and
Speaker 3: wandering around, which I think, under the circumstances, is a
Speaker 3: reasonable thing to do. The thing got out of hand,
Speaker 3: and I never was supportive of what was going on there.
Speaker 3: I want you to be very clear on that, and
Speaker 3: I do not support anyone being violent toward police officers.
Speaker 3: My sister was a retired police officer. I wouldn't want
Speaker 3: it happened to her. So what's your take on this, Ken.
Speaker 22: Well, And that's where I think you have some things
Speaker 22: that were said yesterday were completely misconstrued because I made
Speaker 22: it very very clear what I spoke about was people
Speaker 22: that assaulted police officers have no business being pardoned. The
Speaker 22: rest of them, that's their business, that's politics, that's things
Speaker 22: for them.
Speaker 20: What I focus on is law enforcement.
Speaker 22: And those that were getting you hit over the head
Speaker 22: with metal bats and things like that.
Speaker 20: Yeah, those folks shouldn't be pardoned. The rest of them.
Speaker 22: You just walk through the Capitol and you have what
Speaker 22: trespassing at best? Should they spend three and a half
Speaker 22: four years in prison? Absolutely noted. But that's that's one
Speaker 22: of the things that I focused on y today. Like
Speaker 22: I said, maybe there was some misconstruing of words that
Speaker 22: I said, but I focused narrowly on what the national
Speaker 22: ethop stance was, which was those that assaulted law enforcement
Speaker 22: officers that caused injuries.
Speaker 20: It's disappointing that they would be pardoned.
Speaker 22: The sweeping of just pardoning everybody, to me was frustrating,
Speaker 22: primarily because you're.
Speaker 3: Talking about all sins that were assaulted fair enough, and
Speaker 3: I think that adequately responds to it. And I share
Speaker 3: your position about no one who is violent toward a
Speaker 3: police officer should be let off. I have no problem
Speaker 3: with that because I think under any circumstance it is inappropriate.
Speaker 3: But the problem with this conversation because it causes and
Speaker 3: allows people to go off on a tangent. And I've
Speaker 3: seen it mentioned of course, the Fox nineteen article which
Speaker 3: is the genesis of this mentioned CNN said it also
Speaker 3: led directly and indirectly to the deaths of four Trump
Speaker 3: supporters and five police officers. Well, if you look behind
Speaker 3: the veneer of that, yes, Officer sick Nick was struck
Speaker 3: by a fire extinguisher, but the medical amner said he
Speaker 3: did not die from that. He died of a stroke
Speaker 3: after he went back to the building. He did not
Speaker 3: die of blunt force trauma. And the other four officers said,
Speaker 3: as it may be, died of suicide. And their families
Speaker 3: claim it's because of the trauma they experienced having to
Speaker 3: deal with a Capitol Hill drunken fraternity party and they
Speaker 3: some of them were injured. But again, I'm not going
Speaker 3: to excuse anybody being violence towards the police. But you know, Ken,
Speaker 3: you signed up for the job. You knew what you
Speaker 3: were in store for. And yeah, as a police officer
Speaker 3: you might be in a situation where you got to
Speaker 3: deal with riot control.
Speaker 22: Oh, there's no doubt. I mean we've we've dealt with
Speaker 22: in our careers. We saw it in twenty twenty here,
Speaker 22: we saw it in two thousand and one.
Speaker 20: It is part of the job.
Speaker 22: Now, this is the hard part about policing, and you're right,
Speaker 22: we all signed up for it. Is sometimes police officers
Speaker 22: and certainly officers that have died. You know whether it
Speaker 22: was directly related or not become political pawns. And unfortunately,
Speaker 22: that's what's happened here as you have all these political
Speaker 22: sides going back and forth and they decide, well, you
Speaker 22: know what, let's try to exploit an officer who committed
Speaker 22: suicide and let's just say, well, it's because of this.
Speaker 20: And that's that's what's frustrating about this is, you.
Speaker 22: Know, this is all just some political nonsense going on
Speaker 22: on both sides, and cops end up getting stuck in
Speaker 22: the middle. And that's that's unfortunate that that's how it is,
Speaker 22: but it's a reality that we have to live with
Speaker 22: every day.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and I know that there are line of duty
Speaker 3: benefits that are available, but my understanding is from the
Speaker 3: folks that that did commit suicide trying to claim that
Speaker 3: the suicides were proximately caused by the riots, either the
Speaker 3: cases are still pending or some of them have been
Speaker 3: denied saying no, this is not related to the riots.
Speaker 3: It has no direct correlation, no proximate causation, ergo, no
Speaker 3: death benefits allowed.
Speaker 1: Do this insane?
Speaker 3: Police department enjoy line of duty benefits if they are
Speaker 3: injured or killed in the line of duty.
Speaker 22: Yeah, absolutely, there's statewide benefits. There's also national benefits that
Speaker 22: officers get, like Sunny Kim's family he was in the
Speaker 22: line of duty back in twenty fifteen. There are benefits
Speaker 22: that the family gets and sure to ensure that they're
Speaker 22: taken care of. But it is a fine line, especially
Speaker 22: when it's a death that occurs after the fact. You
Speaker 22: know it's off duty. And we had a friend of
Speaker 22: mine that was injured in the line of duty several
Speaker 22: years ago, about eighteen months later, he ends up passing away.
Speaker 22: You could probably draw that connection because he had a
Speaker 22: pretty severe injury, but there's no proof of it. You
Speaker 22: couldn't prove that this is exactly what it was related to.
Speaker 22: And therefore you a family doesn't get benefits.
Speaker 3: Well, cann of, you re missing my obligations to the police,
Speaker 3: which I thoroughly support. If I didn't point out how
Speaker 3: stressful the job is, I mean, I will never ever
Speaker 3: forget the level of stress my sister was under when
Speaker 3: she was working Special Crimes and had to deal with
Speaker 3: all those child molesters. I mean having to go in
Speaker 3: every day to the office and look at the horror
Speaker 3: that those perverts commit on children. I mean talk about
Speaker 3: a bubble burst and stress inducer.
Speaker 20: Oh, there's no doubt.
Speaker 22: You know, I spent four and a half years in
Speaker 22: our fugitive unit, and you know we would go looking
Speaker 22: for murders, rapists, robbers, all these people are shooting people.
Speaker 22: The ones that affected me the most, the hardest ones
Speaker 22: to go and arrest, or the pedophiles or the one
Speaker 22: you know, sex crimes against kids, of violence against these
Speaker 22: little kids. Those were the worst ones because that's the
Speaker 22: father and me the human and death wants to just
Speaker 22: take these people and just strangle them, but you can't.
Speaker 22: Those were those were the by far the most difficult
Speaker 22: ones for me to deal with.
Speaker 3: I can imagine the other component to that. Then people
Speaker 3: clut off and might not think about It's why I
Speaker 3: bring it up, the purpose that you know are responsible
Speaker 3: for molesting children, maybe in the process of ongoing molestation
Speaker 3: while you're busy doing the evidence gathering, you know that
Speaker 3: is still going on or could be still going on,
Speaker 3: and you're sort of you can't do anything about it. God,
Speaker 3: that would just I couldn't sleep if I was if
Speaker 3: I was aware of that kind of thing and I
Speaker 3: was responsible for going out after them.
Speaker 20: Now, no, it was.
Speaker 22: Certainly, it's a frustrating thing to deal with, but you
Speaker 22: have to keep in the back of your mind that
Speaker 22: justice is going to be served and that we have
Speaker 22: a job to do. We have to be professional, regardless
Speaker 22: of the circumstances, regardless of our personal.
Speaker 20: Feelings, and we have a job to do.
Speaker 22: It is to go arrest these people, bring them to
Speaker 22: the investigators, let the investigators do their thing. That way,
Speaker 22: these people can spend the rest of their lives hopefully
Speaker 22: under the prison.
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, and feeling the wrath of their fellow prisoners. Anyhow,
Speaker 3: real quick here, I saw that WCPO reported it may
Speaker 3: have been reported elsewhere. Response times are down in the
Speaker 3: city of Cincinnati about thirty seconds more calendar year over
Speaker 3: for the police to arrive. And I so people know
Speaker 3: the average response time over eight minutes compared to seven
Speaker 3: minutes and thirty seconds in twenty twenty three. Part of
Speaker 3: the problem the closing a District five. Do you agree with.
Speaker 20: That, Well, there's no doubt.
Speaker 22: I whan you look at the numbers, and I went
Speaker 22: over them with WCPO yesterday. The districts that have the
Speaker 22: biggest response times were District three and District four. Which
Speaker 22: are the ones that absorbed the Lion's share of District
Speaker 22: five by its closing. And it's something that I hear
Speaker 22: from officers constantly. They're frustrated about, you know, take it
Speaker 22: takes me, you know, this much longer to get to
Speaker 22: a radio run because I'm going from this beat and
Speaker 22: I'm covering an officer you know, up in College Hill
Speaker 22: or up in Mount Area. It's just it takes longer
Speaker 22: because the district's that much bigger, and it is certainly
Speaker 22: something that has been a source of frustration since it's closed.
Speaker 3: Well, I guess I have to ask, and I think
Speaker 3: I know the answer to this, Ken, what's the likelihood
Speaker 3: they're going to reopen a district.
Speaker 20: I'll be honest with you, I don't think it's very good.
Speaker 22: I think if they had the money for it, maybe,
Speaker 22: but of course, you know they're they're going to say
Speaker 22: that they don't have the money for it, and it's
Speaker 22: something that it is frustrating. I think you look at
Speaker 22: the numbers and you see that it's a problem, But
Speaker 22: what are you going to do to fix it? And
Speaker 22: that's that's yet to be seen. I guess, well, I'll
Speaker 22: hold out hope that maybe they'll come to their senses
Speaker 22: and see that. You know, we need to change this,
Speaker 22: but who knows it's about to wait.
Speaker 3: It's called the allocation of scarce resources. And one of
Speaker 3: the most important things for a city to live, thrive
Speaker 3: and survive is to have an efficient, good of well
Speaker 3: oiled machine in the police department. Safety is paramount for
Speaker 3: a city that wants to grow. And you know, we
Speaker 3: don't need a streetcar. What we need are enough officers
Speaker 3: to get to you if you are in peril or
Speaker 3: a crime is being committed in a very short period
Speaker 3: of time. And clearly that's not the direction we go
Speaker 3: when we shut down police districts.
Speaker 22: Now, that's the other part too, is you know we're
Speaker 22: still one hundred and almost one hundred and forty officers short.
Speaker 20: Oh, we keep on having recruit classes. We have one
Speaker 20: in now.
Speaker 22: But you have a recuit recruit class that graduates here
Speaker 22: in May has about forty one officers and we're going
Speaker 22: to lose probably sixty or.
Speaker 20: Seventy this year. Oh no, it's an uphill battle.
Speaker 3: We talk about recruit classes. The one thing everybody has
Speaker 3: to keep in mind, I guess, is the number of officers
Speaker 3: that are are retiring. It happens every year, and sometimes
Speaker 3: it happens at a faster pace than other years. My
Speaker 3: I get the impression from the officers that I know,
Speaker 3: and I won't name names, and I want to put
Speaker 3: you on the spot, but I get the impression morale
Speaker 3: isn't exactly high within the Sinsint Police Department right now.
Speaker 20: Well, it's it's just a challenge, it is.
Speaker 22: I mean, you're dealing with, you know, being short staffed
Speaker 22: all the time, You're dealing with the increased radio runs,
Speaker 22: increased violence, all those things come into play, you know,
Speaker 22: and we're gonna get ready to go back into our
Speaker 22: events season where off days are going to be canceled constantly,
Speaker 22: and it's just it's frustrating. I think a lot of
Speaker 22: these things will be solved if we ever do get
Speaker 22: back to our full complement. I just don't see it,
Speaker 22: you know, happening in the next five to ten years.
Speaker 22: As much as the city is trying to hire people,
Speaker 22: you got to you gotta you gotta make this job
Speaker 22: more attractive, you know, And and until things turn around politically,
Speaker 22: you know, whether it's locally, state or nationally, which hopefully,
Speaker 22: uh things will be.
Speaker 20: On the on the up now, and hopefully we'll be
Speaker 20: able to get more people in.
Speaker 3: Here amen to that, because that just adds to the
Speaker 3: already stressful reality of your lives, which that component doesn't
Speaker 3: have to be there. If we had appropriately funded in
Speaker 3: staff police force, you could at least take that element
Speaker 3: of stress out of your lives. Ken Cober, appreciate you
Speaker 3: being on the program. FLP President, keep up the great work,
Speaker 3: and I appreciate you explaining what you had to say
Speaker 3: about the Jay sixers. I agree that violence against police
Speaker 3: officers should never be excused, and hopefully that would be
Speaker 3: the order of the day if it helps it all, Trump,
Speaker 3: pardon the former DC police officer that was convicted the
Speaker 3: death of the Andrews Zebaski's's name, convicted the conspiracy and
Speaker 3: obstruction of justice in connection with the It was a
Speaker 3: Trayvon Martin situation or something like that, but anyway, he
Speaker 3: believed he was wrongfully convicted, so at least he tried
Speaker 3: to make up a little bit with that one line
Speaker 3: of duty incident. Ken, I won't hold you on the
Speaker 3: spot on that one. I do appreciate your time this morning,
Speaker 3: and I look forward to having you on the program
Speaker 3: down the road.
Speaker 20: All right, thanks Brian, thanks for having me.
Speaker 3: My pleasure coming up in eight eighteen fifty five kr
Speaker 3: CD talk station. Stick around. We got a little bit
Speaker 3: more time to talk. And then, of course I always
Speaker 3: look forward to Friday or Thursday, Friday Eve at a
Speaker 3: thirty because we get to talk to Jay Rat left
Speaker 3: a bunch of topics with Jay this morning. So please
Speaker 3: stick around.
Speaker 11: Fifty five the talk station Steve Air with USA and
Speaker 11: so fifty five KRCD talk station. Yeah, I missed book.
Speaker 3: When I was talking to Ken about the pardons for
Speaker 3: the two former DC police officers, I said, trade on Martin,
Speaker 3: I just the first thing that came to my mind.
Speaker 3: It was the death of Karen Helton Brown and the
Speaker 3: circumstances behind this. Apparently, Hailton Brown was riding a moped
Speaker 3: without a helmet on a sidewalk back in twenty twenty.
Speaker 3: An officer Sutton Terrence Sutton, and the other officer involved
Speaker 3: was Andrew Zabowski. Lieutenant Sutton tried to pull him over
Speaker 3: in an unmarked police car. A chase ensued, reaching speeds
Speaker 3: of more than double the speed limit in residential areas.
Speaker 3: Cord to the Justice Department, out and Brown eventually ended
Speaker 3: up getting hit by a vehicle in an alley during
Speaker 3: the pursuit, just a vehicle, I don't think it was
Speaker 3: a police vehicle. Sustained severe head traum and died two
Speaker 3: days later. And they suggested the pursuit violated Metropolitan Police
Speaker 3: Department's policy prohibiting chases. So those two were convicted of
Speaker 3: conspiracy and obstruction of justice and sentenced. To believe one
Speaker 3: of them got fifty or sixty six months. Sutton convicted
Speaker 3: of sixty six months and Zabrovski sentenced to a forty
Speaker 3: eight month prison term. So those are the two police
Speaker 3: officers that received a presidential pardon from Donald Trump. So
Speaker 3: Trump's not anti law enforcement, I don't think. And you
Speaker 3: can draw your own conclusions on whether it was appropriate for,
Speaker 3: as Ken pointed out, folks who did commit violent acts
Speaker 3: against police to be have their sentences commuted otherwise if
Speaker 3: they hadn't been sentenced yet. Ah, such a complicated matter.
Speaker 3: And then going back to some of the guests I've
Speaker 3: had regarding the JA six thing and the seemingly I
Speaker 3: definitive proof now that we've got that the FBI was
Speaker 3: involved in egging these people on to engage in this
Speaker 3: stupid behavior. I mean, I think a lot of us
Speaker 3: have probably been in a situation where things may have
Speaker 3: gotten out of control, you know, I went to college,
Speaker 3: but that this was intentionally this violence was intentionally fomented,
Speaker 3: and that there are by many accounts a large number
Speaker 3: of the so called antifa types within the crowd pretending
Speaker 3: to be Trump supporters and encouraging this behavior as well.
Speaker 3: And I don't know where if you can pick those
Speaker 3: out of the people who actually engaged in violence or
Speaker 3: in gauged in property destruction. Haven't searing any definitive reports
Speaker 3: on that. They always label them with a broad brush,
Speaker 3: a blanket Trump's supporter brush, when, as it turns out,
Speaker 3: many of these so called Trump supporters were actually FBI
Speaker 3: agents or folks working in cooperation with the FBI, or
Speaker 3: in some cases perhaps leftist protesters who wanted to taint
Speaker 3: this event and wanted this to become the national embarrassment
Speaker 3: that January sixth became. So I'll let you conclude on
Speaker 3: your own whether these and that I'm hesitant to call
Speaker 3: on conspiracy theories because I've seen so much evidence in
Speaker 3: my face about what I just said. But you don't
Speaker 3: have to go down that road if you choose not to.
Speaker 1: I know.
Speaker 3: It's like I say all the time, it's like the
Speaker 3: fog of war. How many people died, how many people
Speaker 3: were killed in combat? You don't know well whether or
Speaker 3: not you believe justice has served. This is where we
Speaker 3: find ourselves today. Hunter Biden got pardon, yeah, blanket pardon,
Speaker 3: and we know about all the crimes he committed blanket pardon, ahem.
Speaker 3: And then there were these thousands of others, including the
Speaker 3: entire Biden crime family. So I don't know you can
Speaker 3: compare one to the other. But if you're looking for
Speaker 3: fairness and all of this, good luck or Since I
Speaker 3: heard mediaviation extpert Jay Ratliff coming up next up aginstag
Speaker 3: around for that.
Speaker 1: I'll be right back.
Speaker 6: Fifty five KRC dot com.

Speaker 9: seventy five schot ingram on fifty five KR.
Speaker 5: See the talk station.
Speaker 1: A twenty nine fifty five KR city talk station. Happy Friday.
Speaker 3: Eve always made it extra special because we get to
Speaker 3: talk with iHeartMedia aviation expert Jay rat Left. Jay, welcome
Speaker 3: back to the show, my dear friend. It's always a
Speaker 3: pleasure to have you on.
Speaker 23: Hey, the the honors mind. I always have fun. We
Speaker 23: have time to dive into things here, and I love that.
Speaker 23: Sometimes it's I get three minutes here, two minutes there, whatever,
Speaker 23: and it's just uh, But here we get to dive
Speaker 23: into some some fun topics and that always makes it enjoyable.
Speaker 18: Yeah.
Speaker 3: I feel the same way. That's why you know much
Speaker 3: of the sugarn. Maybe of my lords and masters here
Speaker 3: at work, if I had them, if they if they're
Speaker 3: out there, I don't know who they are, but the
Speaker 3: clock I just you know, if I'm on a roll
Speaker 3: talking about something, I hate to interrupt important topics with
Speaker 3: you know, a specific cutoff time, like you got to
Speaker 3: cut off at eight fifteen. And even though that's recommended,
Speaker 3: I just can go over. But I must really briefly
Speaker 3: cut into our time. I must have dress. Sue my
Speaker 3: Indiana listener who lives in Lawrenceburg, a faithful listener, and
Speaker 3: she says to me, Indiana isn't a four letter word. Lol,
Speaker 3: says I listened to Lawrenceburg, not far from you. I
Speaker 3: keep hearing your disdain in your voice when you say Indiana.
Speaker 3: What I was talking about was the nuclear power plant
Speaker 3: that Indiana is building now. And I said, come on, Indiana,
Speaker 3: and I had it did sound like disdain. No, that
Speaker 3: was jealousy, Sue, jealousy. I love Indiana.
Speaker 23: Revenue going out the window. I totally get.
Speaker 1: It, amen, brother. All right, back to aviation.
Speaker 3: Let's start with Well, seats that recline without reducing the
Speaker 3: space for the person behind them. What a novel concept.
Speaker 23: Well, it's a great concept, but you know, I cautioned
Speaker 23: everyone not to get too excited because it's not gonna
Speaker 23: be something we're gonna see quite a bit. But this
Speaker 23: is this is Luthonza, the German carrier, and they rolled
Speaker 23: out a seat. It's kind of a pod that allows
Speaker 23: us to recline without invading the space of the person
Speaker 23: behind us.
Speaker 20: Now, these are again.
Speaker 23: Self can seat pods, and they're being placed in their
Speaker 23: premium class for the airline. And look, while I love
Speaker 23: the idea, I'm not getting excited because I know that
Speaker 23: these will never replace the sardine canned seating that we
Speaker 23: endure and coach these days, because these specific seats require
Speaker 23: a little bit more room than a typical seat. And
Speaker 23: if an airline works to decide to hey, customer service,
Speaker 23: let's use these everywhere, they would see a decrease in
Speaker 23: the number of seats on a plane. That means less revenue.
Speaker 23: Now maybe not, I ain't happening, and you and I
Speaker 23: both know that. But look, if you're in premium class,
Speaker 23: you know you can do that. And it's nice because
Speaker 23: in coach, what we're going to be seeing in the
Speaker 23: coming years is a lot like we see on some
Speaker 23: of the low cost carriers, where the seats do not reclimb.
Speaker 23: They are set at a predetermined, slightly inclined spot, and
Speaker 23: that's it. You can't bring them up, you can't bring
Speaker 23: them back any And they're saying that this will prevent
Speaker 23: people from getting into altered on a plane by having
Speaker 23: these already done. It sounds so convincing, and it's a
Speaker 23: bunch of crap because the thought is, if you have
Speaker 23: these seats, you could put an extra row or two
Speaker 23: in the back. So what they're really doing is shoving
Speaker 23: an extra two rows in the back of an aircraft,
Speaker 23: giving themselves, you know, six eight additional seats per segment,
Speaker 23: per per flight. And my goodness, the revenue they generate
Speaker 23: on that is considerable, and that's why they do it,
Speaker 23: not because of customer service, but because of the fact
Speaker 23: they can cram more seats into that silver revenue too well.
Speaker 3: Going to miss the put your seat back on the upright,
Speaker 3: position your tray table in the lock.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, reclined.
Speaker 23: Why you can enjoy it is my is my message.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and I suppose that's probably the best solution because
Speaker 3: a lot of people that it causes. The flight attendants
Speaker 3: have to walk back, sir, can you put your seat up?
Speaker 3: We're getting ready to take off or're getting ready to land,
Speaker 3: And as well as the uncomfortable reality of the seat
Speaker 3: in front of you taking up your leg space. If
Speaker 3: everybody suffers equally, then that, I suppose is a healthy
Speaker 3: change for the better.
Speaker 23: But when they go to the meal service and you're
Speaker 23: ready to eat, in the person in front of you
Speaker 23: lace all the way back. The tree tables now shoved
Speaker 23: into your stomach and it makes it impossible to use it.
Speaker 23: And the reason that that is is because the pitch
Speaker 23: or the distance between rows has decreased steadily over the
Speaker 23: years as airlines have crammed more and more seats into
Speaker 23: an airplane. And now that we are using an option
Speaker 23: they gave us as far as the ability to reclimb,
Speaker 23: Now it's a problem. And now somehow that's our fault
Speaker 23: because of what the airlines did. No, it's a problem
Speaker 23: with what the airlines created when they made the decision
Speaker 23: to cram extra seats onto the aircraft.
Speaker 3: Fair enough, we can get one more topic in before
Speaker 3: we take a break here, Jay, I see that Trump
Speaker 3: has decided to replace the head of the TSA.
Speaker 23: Yeah, which is a guy he appointed in his first term.
Speaker 23: The guy has been around for about seven years in
Speaker 23: that office. And I have to admit this one surprised
Speaker 23: me because I thought, you know, he's doing a decent job,
Speaker 23: and I really don't know of any serious issues that.
Speaker 1: We have ongoing.
Speaker 23: And believe me, if it's the FAA or whoever it is,
Speaker 23: normally the people that are at the top of some
Speaker 23: of these aviation entities don't stick around for but like
Speaker 23: nine or ten or fifteen months and they're gone. This
Speaker 23: individual with a seven year tenure, he had a US
Speaker 23: Coast Guard background. I mean, he was very well qualified.
Speaker 23: And again, the TSA has over too million chances a
Speaker 23: day to mess up, and most of the front line
Speaker 23: people do an incredible job.
Speaker 20: So yeah, I was a little bit.
Speaker 23: I guess the thought is, Okay, if Biden likes you,
Speaker 23: I don't, you're out of here. I don't know what
Speaker 23: the reason was, but he has made the move to
Speaker 23: replace the head of the TSA.
Speaker 3: Well, we've seen a lot of that stuff coming on
Speaker 3: in the upcoming days. It's already happening all across the administration.
Speaker 23: I think his team is having a hard time keeping
Speaker 23: up with President Trump with all he's done in just
Speaker 23: a number of hours he's been our president.
Speaker 3: Come on, he answered more questions from the press and
Speaker 3: in one day than than Biden did.
Speaker 1: In the last four years. Guy's got more.
Speaker 23: Energet was like those those NFL players on the sideline
Speaker 23: getting oxygen just to try to keep up with Oh.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's amazing. Yeah, he's too old to be president. No,
Speaker 3: I think he's doing all right. Hell I can't keep
Speaker 3: up with me right, Indeed, I couldn't handle his workday.
Speaker 3: We'll pause, will bring Jay Ratliff back. Apparently it's a
Speaker 3: good thing to be in an Alaska Airline employee. And
Speaker 3: more information United and Delta and Boeing and suspension of
Speaker 3: a crew, A bunch of fun stories with Jay Ratliff.
Speaker 1: I'll be right back.
Speaker 11: Fifty fives KRC the talk station this month NBC eighty eight.
Speaker 3: Coming on eight thirty nine. If you've got KARCD talk station.
Speaker 3: Brian Thomas a Jay Ratliff. I heard dadation expert and
Speaker 3: all round great guy. Is it good to be an
Speaker 3: Alaska Airline employee?
Speaker 20: Jay?
Speaker 4: It is? It is.
Speaker 23: In fact, a year ago you and I were talking
Speaker 23: about how Alaska Airlines was forced to ground a third
Speaker 23: of their fleet after that Boeing door plug incident. Even
Speaker 23: Saturday Night Live was having fun at their expense, and
Speaker 23: it remains a very funny video to watch. I'm not
Speaker 23: an SNL fan, but Buddy, they nailed it on Alaska Airlines.
Speaker 23: But you know, then the airline really turned things around
Speaker 23: last year in a very big way. They ended the
Speaker 23: year with making some significant amount of profit, and they
Speaker 23: decided to give their employees a bonus check that's equal
Speaker 23: to six weeks of their pay as a thank you.
Speaker 23: So if you told the Last Airlin employees last year
Speaker 23: at this time, this is what you're going to be
Speaker 23: enjoying a year from now, they might have had a
Speaker 23: difficult time believing it. But yeah, Last Airlines continues to
Speaker 23: do a lot of things.
Speaker 3: Very very well, all right, And somebody else did pretty well.
Speaker 3: I'd be Donald Trump hauling in big corporate donor inaugural
Speaker 3: fund bucks, and I guess the airlines were in on
Speaker 3: that too.
Speaker 23: Well, Delta, you had the United putting up a million
Speaker 23: dollars a pop for the inaugural fund.
Speaker 1: And I don't know that I like that, Bryan.
Speaker 23: The reason I don't like it is because the airlines
Speaker 23: with Trump round one, it was a very cozy relation
Speaker 23: chip and you know, of late under the Biden administration,
Speaker 23: airlines were being held accountable for a lot more than
Speaker 23: they've ever ever, ever been.
Speaker 1: Held accountable for.
Speaker 23: And my fear is that we might be taking our
Speaker 23: foot off the accelerator a little bit. And I'm not
Speaker 23: suggesting that the million dollar inaugural fund is, you know,
Speaker 23: to buy some favor. But then I see the next
Speaker 23: person in line with their million dollars.
Speaker 1: Is Boeing better get on board?
Speaker 4: Please?
Speaker 1: Yeah, please don't.
Speaker 23: If there's one. If there's one company, I want to
Speaker 23: make sure that we do not let up anything on
Speaker 23: it's certainly Boeing. So we'll just have to We'll just
Speaker 23: have to wait and see.
Speaker 20: But look again, you and I.
Speaker 23: You know, I'm not a fan at all of the
Speaker 23: Biden administration at all whatsoever. But I did appreciate how
Speaker 23: they held airlines accountable. In fact, they did more from
Speaker 23: the Department of Transportation against airlines, finding them holding their
Speaker 23: feet to the fire, making them accountable more than any
Speaker 23: other administration I've ever seen in decades. And I really
Speaker 23: wish that kind of heat can continue. But sadly, I
Speaker 23: just I don't think it's going to.
Speaker 1: And I really want to.
Speaker 3: Be wrong there politics and money. Just wonder if there's
Speaker 3: any corruptive forces that.
Speaker 23: Get tend to go together.
Speaker 3: You're right easy sitting and felt. I don't know why
Speaker 3: it came to mind. Why did I just say that? Okay,
Speaker 3: so crew got suspended and for sounds like pretty good reason.
Speaker 1: On this next story here oday.
Speaker 23: Landing on the wrong runway. Uh oh, it takes it
Speaker 23: and the runway lights were off. It takes a lot
Speaker 23: to mess up that bad. But the real story is
Speaker 23: which airline it was. It was Pakistan International Airlines. Now
Speaker 23: this is the airline and I were talking about last
Speaker 23: week that had the We're coming back to France ad
Speaker 23: and they put this ad up with, you know, celebrating
Speaker 23: in the fact that the airline was coming back in
Speaker 23: and it was one of their planes flying directly towards
Speaker 23: the Eiffel Tower. It looked like a snapshot of nine
Speaker 23: to eleven people around the world freaked out saying what
Speaker 23: what is this and a very tone deaf ad if
Speaker 23: you will. But this is also the airline that number
Speaker 23: of years ago they found that a third of their
Speaker 23: pilots had a fake pilot license.
Speaker 1: Oh.
Speaker 20: Also, oh, it gets better.
Speaker 23: Also the airline that a number of years ago was
Speaker 23: getting in trouble because part of their maintenance procedure was
Speaker 23: to sacrifice a goat on the tarmac, so needless. Yeah,
Speaker 23: and I know people they are having breakfast. Apologies or
Speaker 23: be you think I'm making this up and I'm not.
Speaker 23: It's on the internet, so it's got to be true.
Speaker 23: But yeah, Pakistan International Airlines surprisingly is not allowed to
Speaker 23: fly into the United States because they've had some past
Speaker 23: issues and they were in Lahore landing and the crew
Speaker 23: landed on the wrong rue line. They fortunately, thank god,
Speaker 23: nobody got hurt. Nobody was occupying the wrong runway at
Speaker 23: the time, and the crew was immediately suspended.
Speaker 4: But for an.
Speaker 23: Airline that is desperately trying to rebuild their image in
Speaker 23: the world of aviation around the world, ran they can't
Speaker 23: catch a.
Speaker 20: Break and it just continues.
Speaker 3: Wow, when you said the Pakistani Airlines and apologies to
Speaker 3: my Pakistani listeners out there, and this is not an
Speaker 3: indictment of all things Pakistani, but the vision that immediately
Speaker 3: popped in my mind, you know, you get this mental
Speaker 3: image was an airplane with chicken wire windows.
Speaker 23: Oh well, we've got some of those in South America.
Speaker 23: But yeah, Pakistan International Airlines, they've just had one thing
Speaker 23: and it's all self inflicted stuff that has really caused
Speaker 23: them to have the problems they do. And when you
Speaker 23: look at the track record of the incidents that they've had, you.
Speaker 20: Just shake your head.
Speaker 23: But it also allows me to have a greater appreciation
Speaker 23: for the Department of Transportation and the Federal Aviation Administration
Speaker 23: where they say that carriers, look, you're simply not safe
Speaker 23: enough to fly into any US airports and you are
Speaker 23: not going to do so. And the Pakistan International Airlines
Speaker 23: for a number of years has not been allowed to
Speaker 23: fly into any of our large gateway airports in the country.
Speaker 1: And thank god for that.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and you know you got to put an exclamation
Speaker 3: point on b because of concerns over safety. This isn't
Speaker 3: some political thing where you know, we have poor relations
Speaker 3: with the country politically and there go, we're not going
Speaker 3: to allow them to enter our airspace. This is because
Speaker 3: we're afraid to let them into our airspace. Now, if
Speaker 3: you're you're sitting in Pakistan, you hear something like that,
Speaker 3: you get ready to board a plane.
Speaker 1: I thought you'd be very comfortable about that.
Speaker 23: You couldn't pay me to get on a Russian airline
Speaker 23: because of their part issues or certainly Pakistan International Airlines,
Speaker 23: and you know, this is also a country that's been
Speaker 23: very friendly to terrorist organizations like al Qaeda and others,
Speaker 23: So it's there's always been issues there. But from a
Speaker 23: commercial aviation standpoint, look, there are reasons why we are
Speaker 23: enjoying here in the United States the safest air ever
Speaker 23: of commercial jet travel. It's because a lot of people
Speaker 23: are doing a lot of things right and very well.
Speaker 23: And you know, the FAA, even though I'll get on
Speaker 23: them all the time for some of the crazy things
Speaker 23: that we do when we manage the perception of safety
Speaker 23: or security versus actually changing things, I'm always going to
Speaker 23: point out the fact that there's a lot of things
Speaker 23: that they do right, those men and women that are
Speaker 23: in various roles in that agency. The one thing they're
Speaker 23: looking at is, look, if there's issues, was how you
Speaker 23: train your pilots, how you hire your pilots, how your
Speaker 23: maintenance is done if it is not being done. All
Speaker 23: of these things are looked at to determine whether or
Speaker 23: not it's okay for an airline to fly in the
Speaker 23: United States. And some people will say, gae I'm flying
Speaker 23: out of Chicago. I've never heard of this airline in
Speaker 23: my life. I'm scared to death, and you know it's
Speaker 23: because the only reason that they're allowed to fly here
Speaker 23: is because they have achieved that safety standard that we
Speaker 23: have to have. But you can always go to the
Speaker 23: State Department website. As we've talked about before, they have
Speaker 23: a list of airlines you should be concerned with or
Speaker 23: destinations you should be concerned with, and if the airline
Speaker 23: that you're flying happens to appear on that list, you
Speaker 23: might want to consider an alternative.
Speaker 1: Sound advice from Jay Rodlift.
Speaker 3: All right, let's talk about hubblays and couple that with
Speaker 3: the disaster that was the weather in the Southern States.
Speaker 3: Over that thousands of flights canceled.
Speaker 23: Today we had tens of thousands of flights impacted and affected,
Speaker 23: and things are back to I don't want to say normal,
Speaker 23: because I'm looking at New Orleans where forty three percent
Speaker 23: of their flights are canceled, Charleston sixty seven percent of
Speaker 23: the flights canceled. Savannah they're losing their minds with snow,
Speaker 23: sixty five percent of their flights canceled. So obviously, in
Speaker 23: some of these areas we're having issues. But when you
Speaker 23: look at the big picture, Southwest is canceled two percent
Speaker 23: of their flights today, Delta one percent, American one percent,
Speaker 23: United one percent. So we're starting to see things today
Speaker 23: get back to normal. Today will be as close to
Speaker 23: normal as we've seen in the last several days, very
Speaker 23: few issues other than Detroit. Tomorrow's going to be the
Speaker 23: day of the week where everything is okay, back to
Speaker 23: normal as usual, because sadly, we had planes last night
Speaker 23: that couldn't reach their destination because of delays that affected
Speaker 23: the originating flights out this morning. But overall it's gotten
Speaker 23: better as the week is progress. But what an absolute
Speaker 23: nightmare of a mess with that historic storm that stormed
Speaker 23: across the South from Houston through so many of those
Speaker 23: airports that again they got snow removal, as.
Speaker 3: I'm just going to ask you, because I know the
Speaker 3: municipalities do not. In the houstonar they were talking about
Speaker 3: they had to bring some down from Dallas or something,
Speaker 3: but they had because it's.
Speaker 23: Like you and I getting a snowblower that we put
Speaker 23: in our garage that we might use every fifteen years.
Speaker 1: You're just not going to do it right.
Speaker 23: And it's the same sort of situation with these airports
Speaker 23: because look when I was in Monroe, Louisiana, my first post,
Speaker 23: and it's snow two inches. I mean, it was three
Speaker 23: days of nothing happening, and you'd have these flyers from
Speaker 23: New York. They would come in and I mean they
Speaker 23: would just go crazy on us because it's like, what
Speaker 23: do you mean it's like a dust that. Yeah, we
Speaker 23: get it, but we don't have any snow removal equipment
Speaker 23: because it doesn't happen that often. And look when you
Speaker 23: see a snowball fights on Bourbon Street on the front
Speaker 23: page of Street Journal, pretty good indication that that well
Speaker 23: two one global warming has.
Speaker 20: Yet to said.
Speaker 23: Is the other thing is this is a very very
Speaker 23: historic storm that you just got to shrug your shoulders
Speaker 23: and pray everybody's going to be okay, and you're sorry
Speaker 23: for everybody got hurt or killed. But from an aviation standpoint,
Speaker 23: there's just very little that can be done about it.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Well, and I suppose you were a bit surprised to
Speaker 3: see four inches of snow and you're Charleston home.
Speaker 23: Oh my god, Oh no, in Savannah, Yeah, Savannah. We
Speaker 23: actually came back to Ohio to escape the Savannah snowstorm
Speaker 23: because I think the record was like three inches from
Speaker 23: eighteen something and they got four inches that was on
Speaker 23: top of snow, and yeah, they're losing their minds down there,
Speaker 23: but it's just yeah, we had to come to Ohio
Speaker 23: to escape the Savannah snowstorm. That shows you how crazy
Speaker 23: these days are.
Speaker 3: Jay rat Love. Always enjoy our conversations, my friend. We'll
Speaker 3: do it again next Thursday. Between now and then, best
Speaker 3: of health and love to both you and your better half.
