Speaker 1 (00:00):
Okay, let's go right back to Dave, our Western PA
constitutionalist correspondent. Dave, just very quickly, because I want to
go right back to you. Say you had a million
dollars in Visa stock. Okay, the way the Pelosis did.
Now this was you. It wasn't your name was not Pelosi,
or you weren't the husband or by the way, it's

(00:20):
also the Sun. Paul Pelosi does a lot of the
the financial transactions, but so does the Sun. So she
spreads it around. It's like a family it's like the Hunt,
it's like the Bidens. It's like a family business anyway,
you know. So you have a million dollars worth of
Visa stock, and then three to four weeks before the

(00:43):
Department of Justice makes its official announcement that it's launching
this massive lawsuit against Visa, which is gonna hurt the
you know, it's gonna hurt his share value, there's no question.
And you're gonna lose money. You know, you're gonna lose
a lot of money. You're gonna lose hundreds and hundreds
and huns of thousands of dollars. But suddenly, Dave, you're

(01:04):
the only one that anticipates that this is going to happen.
I'm telling you, the Securities in Exchange Commission would notice
that trade immediately and it would be a huge red
flag and they'd say, whoa, whoa, whoa. This guy out
of Pittsburgh. What this guy who's got you know, millions

(01:26):
of dollars in stocks suddenly makes this big move just
a couple of weeks before the DOJ makes the announcement
on visa. Now we want to investigate him. Did he
talk to somebody inside the DJ? Did he talk to
somebody in Mery Garland's office. Because nobody was supposed to

(01:48):
know about this, they would, honestly, they'd be on you, Dave,
like a cheap suit. And if you could you know,
in other words, if you couldn't prove to them that
you are just the luckiest guy on the planet and
this was all coincidence. Hey, look, you know my mother here, Look,

(02:08):
my mother got really sick. Here. Look we had to
move her to the you know, to whatever a nursing home.
We needed the money, so I sold the visa stalk
unless you could show them proof like something like this,
like it was an emergency, I had no choice. I
had to sell it. They wouldn't believe you. They'd look

(02:29):
at your emails, they'd look at your text messages, they'd
go through your life, they'd go through your bank accounts,
they'd go through your life like with a fine tooth comb.
And if there was insider trading, they'd nail you. They
nailed Martha Stewart, they would definitely nail you. So you're
completely right, Dave. If an ordinary person did what the

(02:49):
Pelosis do on a regular basis, you and I were
behind bars, So why shouldn't they dave final word to you?
Am I wrong?

Speaker 2 (03:00):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (03:01):
Jeff?

Speaker 4 (03:01):
I mean all jokingly, I would. I would implicate Bill
from Studbury, show him what it feels like that have
the bets crawling down his neck. But seriously, Jeff, you
know if my name was Dave Pelosi, or if my
name was Dave Schiff, which I wouldn't take because you know,
we know that ship is from framing him up beyond
neck of the Woods and God and may God remove

(03:23):
that from you. Jeff, I know I wouldn't want that
on my fleet either. For Jeff, it's just a double
standard step. If if I got caught with inside it's trading, Jeff,
if Pittsburgh posts would be two mail hans because they're
the liberal paper Pittsburgh. And then it would go to
our RENPR station.

Speaker 3 (03:40):
Oh my god, David Pittsburgh.

Speaker 4 (03:41):
He's the second coming of the devil. You know, even
though I was born in Salem, back in Massachusetts, Jeff.

Speaker 3 (03:47):
But you know, I.

Speaker 4 (03:48):
Would be called have a tick of the year. I'd
have six six six across my forehead. And just for
one more thing, Jeff, I wish I had a million
dollars to invest, but leave that alone. But one more
quick thing, Jeff. I am in the rt in Chill Exchange,
so I'm involved with what I work with, being a welder.

Speaker 5 (04:03):
I'm involved with gold sholder, copper, aluminum, and.

Speaker 4 (04:06):
Of course US Steelers said, so they can connect me
to US steel trading, Jeff. Deal what Trump came here?
So they can nail me with that, buddy, Dave.

Speaker 1 (04:16):
Dave, honestly, you're always very funny. You're just a very
funny guy. And God bless you. Dave. Please keep calling
my friend. I swear to God you you always make
me crack up. Dave, thank you so much for that call.
Six months he bought US Steel, by the way, that
was a good investment. Because yeah, Trump is going to
save the steel industry. Honestly, it's a smart bet. Six

(04:39):
one seven two six six sixty eight sixty eight is
the number. Mark Ian Medford, Mark, you've been holding patiently.
Thank you and welcome.

Speaker 6 (04:51):
I think it's a wreckage.

Speaker 1 (04:52):
Jeff, you are You're always worth the wait. Go ahead,
my friend.

Speaker 5 (04:57):
That's kind of you to say, my friend. Anyway, we
are forgetting something about this whole. Alvin Bragg and Latitia James,
do you remember when Trump's attorneys and the media and
the people were asking them what are the charges on Trump?

(05:18):
And what was the answer they gave us? Jeff, we
don't have to tell you now, Jeff. In what state
in this.

Speaker 6 (05:28):
Country does a law enforcement agency a da an ago
has ever said to anybody you're under arrest, but we're
not going to tell you what you're under arrest for.

Speaker 1 (05:44):
Mark honestly dropped to Mike, you are so right. I
remember that when Alvin Bragg was being pressed, but what
are the charges? He goes, well, I don't have to
tell you. I just when I go to court, that's
when I present the charges and everyone's like, what, Mark,

(06:05):
are they gonna nail Latitia James, and do you think
she's gonna see some hard time?

Speaker 5 (06:12):
I think they are, Jeff.

Speaker 6 (06:13):
I think it's time that someone is going to be
made an example of.

Speaker 5 (06:18):
And I think she's a prime candidate.

Speaker 6 (06:20):
And I also think that she might roll.

Speaker 4 (06:24):
She just might roll on a few people and mention
a few mats.

Speaker 6 (06:27):
Jeff, you know what, I got a miss this for Laditia,
a sweetheart. You f'd around and you found out nobody.

Speaker 5 (06:36):
Is above the law. You're absolutely like, sweethet, nobody is
above the law.

Speaker 1 (06:43):
You know, or Mark, as they say, karma is a bee.
Oh it is karma, b Mark. Thank you very much
for that call. Six one seven two sex sex sixty eight,
sixty eight is the number. Okay. By the way, I'm
getting a lot of reaction from all of you. On
the wealthiest place in Massachusetts. John is telling me it's Dover,

(07:09):
and whether what's what's what do we have here that's
a kin to Chevy Chase in Maryland. When the second
you mention it, you're thinking, you know, five, six, seven, eight,
ten million dollar homes, multimillion dollar homes the whole area.
John says, it's Dover. Okay, Really just thirty seconds because
I want to go back to the phone lines. But look,

(07:30):
I don't want to harp on Ed Markey living in Chelsea.
But how does a guy, I know, he's a senator now,
but on a congressman's salary, and I mean he was
a backbencher. He was an absolute loser. How does a
guy like him, who what is it, visits Maldon? You
know the ice cream man from Maldon. How does this

(07:51):
guy live in the wealthiest, toniest neighborhood in all of Maryland.
It's in the suburbs of Washington, d It's called chevy Chase. Bethesda,
by the way, is right next to it. It's also
a beautiful area. I know because Charles Krodheimer used to
live there and I used to play chess at Crowdheimer's house,
so I would drive through chevy Chase in Bethesda. Bethesda

(08:14):
is gorgeous. Chevy Chase is actually a cut above Bethesda.
I mean they're both super nice. It's all millionaires, millionaires
and gazillionaires, but especially chevy Chase. When you know, when
in the Washington area, when someone says I live in
chevy Chase, you're talking, you know, a someone who's very wealthy,

(08:40):
A very successful doctor, a very successful lawyer, obviously sleazy,
corrupt politician. These are homes minimum minimum four, five, six,
seven million dollars, many of them ten twelve, fifteen million
dollar homes. It's like if I say to you Beverly

(09:00):
Hills or the Palisades, You're like, whoa. It's the wealthy
of the wealthy, the cream of the cream, as the
French would say, la creme de la crem okay, the
cream of the cream. Now, how does this guy afford it?
That's the question. Nobody in the media has asked that question.
And I'm telling you, if you just follow the money,

(09:21):
the guy is corrupt as hell. It's obvious.

Speaker 3 (09:24):
Now.

Speaker 1 (09:25):
The only reason why Samy and I were having an
interesting conversation because she's originally from the DC area. The
only reason why we don't have an equivalent of Chevy
Chase here in Massachusetts is because mass has different zoning
laws than Maryland. So, believe it or not, in Brookline
there are middle class people, you know, I mean middle

(09:47):
upper mid Not everybody's a millionaire. You know, pocket here,
a pocket there, even Wellesley, which is very well to do,
and Dover as well, very well to do. But you know,
on edges in the area. Street here, a street there,
you know, you could find something that's semi reasonable, meaning

(10:08):
close to a million dollars Nantucket, the vineyard, same thing,
very well to do. But because of the zoning laws,
you can get a couple of people that you know,
they're not mega uber wealthy, and they managed to you know,
rent an apartment or get some kind of a bit
more of a modest town home. Still very expensive, but
not astronomically expensive. But Chevy Chase, think Beverly Hills. It's

(10:38):
it's it's the way the mega rich live. Now, to me,
how does any politician become mega rich? That's the first
you know, that's the first red flag, and the second
red flag is what did he or she do to
get that rich? Six one seven sixty eight sixty eight

(11:02):
is the number. Jeff in Chelsea. Thanks for holding, Jeff,
and welcome, Thank you.

Speaker 3 (11:10):
Thank you very much. Jeff. Now no, good morning. Now,
as far as the politicians are concerned, Jeff, I got
news to you. We will be in jail before they're
in jail. And I'll tell you why. Because here's the
thing with these politicians, the Democrat Party, especially in the
running Republicans. They're a mafia estate. The mafia can do

(11:32):
whatever they want to do, and the enablers is Norman
norm who don't even listen to this this broadcast. Dot
even listen to conservative or left wing broadcast. They listen
to the six o'clock news, and they want in on
the rackets. They want to have the money in their pocket,
easy money. Plus the illegal aliens who are already in

(11:54):
this country, plus the Chinese and Saudi Arabian backers who
are funding this country. Jeff, we are heading towards an
ultimate mafia estate and there's nothing we can really do
about it in the physical that's my take on it.
And eventually we will be communist Cuba with the Chinese

(12:16):
and the Saudis and other hostile countries calling the shots
and the American and the Americans will be like the
VC French under Nazi Germany or worse like communism. That's
what discussing Communism is in Cuba is coming here to America.
What do you think, Jeff?

Speaker 1 (12:34):
Well, Jeff, look, let's we don't even have to make
even predictions. Okay, you're right, but I'll show you just
how right you are. Elizabeth Warren just to give an
example of Massachusetts. So this is the senior senator for Massachusetts, Elizabeth,
who's done nothing for the state, nothing literally nothing, nothing.

(12:55):
And by the way, she's worth now north of forty
to fifty million dollars. And nobody asked her in the
you know, you think the Globe or the Herald or
any of them, four five, seven, ten, twenty five, how
did you get so rich? Like, how did you suddenly
again on a senator's salary? How did I know you
did the fake Indian routine to get yourself to have it?

(13:19):
But you know, outside of you know, that was three
hundred thousand or three hundred and fifty thousand dollars a year.
How did you go from three hundred and fifty thousand
a year and actually took a pay cut to be
a senator and suddenly now you're worth north of forty
to fifty million dollars. You crook, okay, But let that, Jeff,
let that go, as I like to say. She goes

(13:41):
up to New York City and she endorses the communist
Zoran Mamdani, full throated endorsement. She then comes back to Boston.
Now and this broke either last night or this morning.
I can't tell you when, but within the last twenty
four hours she has now come out and fully endorsed

(14:02):
you guessed it, Marxist Michelle Wu for Mayor of Boston.
So and by the way, this is after I want
all of you please, if you live in mass frankly,
across the country, you should know this because it's coming
to you, but in Massachusetts, for those of you that
have anything to do with Boston, listen to this. This

(14:25):
is after Marxist Michelle Wu put out an official sixty
two page climate action plan. This is what she's committed
to now for her next term. This is what she's
gonna do if she's reelected as mayor of Boston. It's
her seminal promise to the voters. She is gonna ban

(14:49):
all gas stoves. She is gonna ban SUVs, SUV's. She
won to promote wind energy wind in the city of Boston,
if you can believe this, and eventually phase out and
replace all fossil fuels, all fossil fuels. She wants to

(15:15):
set up a government surveillance system. Look it up. It's
in her handbook. You're not gonna believe me. Look it
up to quote unquote track the number of miles you drive,
so the government will be tracking you in your vehicle
to see how much quote unquote carbon you're emitting, how

(15:38):
many miles you drive. Every home or residence in Boston
is now gonna be measured and scored by their words,
how quote climate compliant you are. The more climate compliant

(15:59):
you are, the more they're gonna give you tax credits.
The less climate compliant you are, you're gonna get more fees,
more penalties, and higher taxes. Six one step two six
six sixty eight sixty eight is the number. Get out
of Boston. I'm telling you. If you're not getting out now,

(16:22):
get out before Michelle Woo wins another term, because after
this climate action plan that she's laid out, I mean,
no gas stoves. Your suv, I guess you won't be
allowed to drive it. I don't know what they're gonna do,
but SUVs are gonna be banned. Gas stoves are gonna
be banned. Your residence will have to be quote unquote

(16:43):
climate compliant, which means is gonna a It's gonna cost
you a ton of money. You're gonna have to make
all kinds of renovations. But you're gonna have inspectors breathing
down your neck. You're gonna see violations of your privacy.
They're gonna tell you what you can what kind of
light bulbs you can use, you name it. And they're

(17:06):
also going to be tracking your vehicles. Now she's promising
a government surveillance system that literally will track you and
your car and how many miles you drive, and it
just goes on. It's sixty two pages. The woman is
a stone cold communist. There is no difference between her

(17:28):
and Zoron Mumdani none, none, none. I know, mum Donnie's
in the media capital of the United States, New York.
That's why he's getting so much of the oxygen in
the room. But honestly, you compare Mumdonni to Michelle wou
or to Brandon Johnson in Chicago or now they've got

(17:48):
this crazy one in in Minneapolis. He's a Somali Mumdanni
who is the exact same on the issues. So no socialism,
communism is coming and Mom Donnie and now WU officially
endorsed by Elizabeth Warren and apparently now AOC is going

(18:11):
to come down and campaign for Michelle Wu, as is
Bernie Sanders. You have somebody like her running a major city,
She's going to run that city right into the ground.
If you can get out of Boston, you've been warned.
Six one seven two six six sixty eight sixty eight. Okay,

(18:32):
super super quick. It was a huge story on Friday,
still obviously an important story. Democrats behaving badly. It's national.
It's not just local. It's a national story. The sheriff
of Suffolk County, and as many people across the country
should know, Suffolk County is a very important county here

(18:54):
in Massachusetts, Suffolk County, the sheriff Steve or Steven Tompkins.
I like to call him Stevie, just to get under
his skin. But anyway, Steve Tompkins, he is the sheriff.
He has been elected by the voters of Suffolk County.
If you can believe it. He is a hardcore moonbat.

(19:16):
He is a big supporter of the sanctuary state policies
of Moraheely and the sanctuary policies of Michelle Wu. He
in fact cleared Ice from his jails famously in twenty nineteen,
where he said you are not allowed to come in
and arrest a single illegal alien, no matter what kind

(19:37):
of a violent or outrageous crime they have committed. Well,
this man, who has a thousand, in fact, over one
thousand employees, many of them law enforcement officers who serve
under him, was caught in Florida, was actually charged and
arrested and taken into custody on charges of extortion. Now

(20:04):
listen to this again. Look how greedy these democrats are.
He apparently allegedly was extorting an executive of a national
cannabis retail company. You know, one of these pot shops

(20:25):
that they sell weed marijuana, which are by the way,
prominent all over Massachusetts. And everybody now wants to come
to mass Everybody wanted these weed companies, these marijuana companies.
They all want to come to Massachusetts because it's almost
an unlimited market. And in particular they want Boston because

(20:45):
they're all yeah, well yeah me and oh me, and
that's good man. I'm flying, man, I'm flying, I'm flying man.
People love to get high here, moonbats and liberals in particular,
they love to get stoned all day, all night, especially
on the weekends. You cannot have enough pot shops in

(21:07):
this state. I mean, seriously, I drive down down the
one just very quickly down route one. Every second billboard
is a cannabis ad. And it's not one company, you know,
buying multiple billboards. No, they're all these different businesses like

(21:28):
one after another. I'm like, is that all we sell now?
Is that all we can grow? Is that all we
can make in this state is pot marijuana? And I'm thinking,
obviously there's a massive market for it because everywhere you
go they keep advertising. And by the way, they don't
care that kids see this. They don't care that. By

(21:49):
the way, some of them are very close to schools,
so kids are seeing this all the time. So the
message that is being given to our children, to the
population at large, but especially to the children, is go
get stoned. There's nothing wrong with getting stoned. Get high
in the morning, get high in the afternoon, and get

(22:11):
high in the evening. Just get stoned all day, all night,
all week. And people are buying anyway. There's a big market.
Everybody wants to get into Massachusetts, and so this national
cannabis company want to get into Boston, and good old

(22:32):
Stevie wanted to, as they say, wet is beak get
a slice of the action. And so the think about
this this guy's a freaking sheriff. He's a sheriff and
an open border's pro sanctuary city sheriff. And he said,
you can't do business in Boston. No, you're listen, buddy.

(22:53):
You can apply for all the permits you want. You
can apply for your license all you want. You can
try to set up shop all you want. I got
connections in the Democratic Party. I got connections with the
mayor's office. I got connections with the governor. You this
is what they call a toll fee. And by the way,

(23:16):
it's very common in the state. I'm gonna get to
that in a minute. It is unbelievable, but it's called
a toll and it's it's prevalent. In other words, you
got to pay me fifty thousand dollars just to get
into it's pay to play just to get into the game.
So you want to make sure I I don't cause

(23:36):
you any problems. Now there's other people you're gonna have
to bribe to get your license and your you know,
your your your permit. But step one, the first door
is me, is me Stevie Steve Tompkins, sheriff with the
badge to uphold the law. Because you know, I put

(23:57):
bad guys in jail. You see, I maybe a crook
and a thief and a fraud and a con man,
but I also put robbers and thiefs and frauds in jail.
That's the Massachusetts way, that's the Democrat way. He made

(24:20):
a big mistake. Had he committed his crime here, he
would have gotten away with it. But he did it
in Florida under Ron DeSantis, red state Florida, where they
actually have law and order, an honest government. And so
they nabbed him. And now Steve Tompkins is in trouble.

(24:42):
He's in big trouble. They've got him dead to rights.
He's at a minimum now going to lose his position.
He's gonna lose his badge, and if he's not careful,
he may end up in jail. Now, let me just
say one other quick thing, and then I want to
go back to the phone lines. Number one. What is

(25:06):
wrong with so many moonbats and so many liberals in
this state. I'm calling them out. I mean, I've never
seen anything like this. You have more pot shops here
than chick fil as. I'm telling you, we have more
pot shops in Massachusetts then we have Chick fil A's,

(25:28):
and Chick fil A is one of the most popular,
you know whatever chicken fast food franchises in the country.
I love Chick fil A. I'm finally getting one, by
the way, they're building one right near Patriot Place. Finally, finally,
I don't have to drive an hour to get it.
To have a Chick fil a chicken sandwich. I love,
by the way, the original Crispy with their Coast law

(25:51):
and their waffle friesh Okay, but let that go. That's
a very good point, Mike. Mike is saying in my ear, Jeff.
The only question is now, is it still gonna take
you an hour? Because everybody's gonna be going, so you're
just gonna be waiting in line for like an hour.
That's it's gonna be a mile line long. I agree

(26:14):
with you, Mike. Yeah, I'm sorry, a mile long line.

Speaker 6 (26:18):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (26:18):
I know, you're completely right, Mike. But still, at least
it's there, you know what I'm saying. At least it's there.
I can in my area there are three four four
pot shops within ten minutes, within a ten minute drive.
And by the way, there's the long lines there too. Okay,

(26:39):
but my point is, what is it about this state
that so many people want to get high and that
there's such a massive I mean, is everybody a freaking stoner?
Like maybe, honestly, maybe that explains the Trump derangement syndrome.
Maybe it explains why you're you know, you vote to
keep voting for the Democrats and Mara Heally and Michelle

(27:02):
wou and Elizabeth Warren and Ed Markey like maybe go oh,
they have fried their brains on drugs. Ah, dad explains everything.
It's a state full of cheaches and trunks. It's cheech
and Trump yet oh yeah, man, oh yeah Trump. Trump's

(27:25):
a racist me and oh yeah, hardcore Nazi me. And
we're gonna go with Michelle wo Man, Oh yeah, man,
climb it all the way, man, Oh yeah, Man. Don't
drive m a car. Men. So, I mean, maybe that
explains it. I don't know, Okay, I don't know everything

(27:46):
in this state. It's pay to play. The politicians pay
to play. You want anything done, I'm asking the contractors
in construction. Am I wrong? Small business owners, if you
want a license or a permit, people who want to
you want to build a building, you want to build

(28:09):
a community. It's all pay to play, it doesn't matter
what it is. And the media in this state, including
certain radio talk shows, and you know who they are,
it's all pay to play. You want good coverage, you

(28:30):
want positive coverage, you know what you gotta do, send
in some advertising money. And so the pay to play model.
It's the Boston Herald. You put in some nice ads,
they'll give you a good coverage. The Boston Globe, you
give us some good ads. Hey, don't you worry. We'll

(28:53):
chill for you day and night. Channel four, Channel five,
Channel seven, Channel ten, Channel twenty five. Life this whole
freaking state. The media in this state is so corrupt
it's unbelievable. And if anyone like myself dares to challenge

(29:14):
the hackorama, the pay to play, they will try to
destroy you. They will lie about you, they will smear you,
they will defame you, they will sick the Federal Communications
Commission the FCC to take me off the air. And

(29:34):
that's not just the Democrats. That's the Massachusetts Republican establishment.
That's the mass GOP. That's all of them, from top
to bottom. And that's the so called whatever little conservative
media there is in this state. That to my shock
and horror unlike and by the way, and these are

(29:56):
the same ones. The hacks, the hacks, a bunch of hats,
and there's the money in the pocket, there's the quote
unquote told pay and then you can play. And Stevie
just got caught because Stevie got greedy and Stevie got stupid.

(30:18):
As long as you stay in this corrupt state, and
I'm telling you, we're up there with Louisiana, We're up
there with Illinois, We're up there with California. There are
about four or five really corrupt states. We are right
up there. Rhode Island, by the way, is also surprisingly
a really corrupt state. Okay, but we're in New Jersey

(30:41):
as well. We are way. I mean, we're right. We
can play with the big boys. But as long as
you stay within the confines of this corrupt hackorama, nothing
happens to you, no matter how dirty, no matter how corrupt,
no matter how we legal. But you start doing this

(31:03):
in a red state like Steve, like Stevie Tompkins found out,
you're gonna get nailed. And he got nailed. Big six
one seven, two six six sixty eight sixty eight agree,
disagree six one seven two six six sixty eight sixty eight.
And let me ask you the fact now that a

(31:25):
very prominent sheriff, you know, the badge, the whole thing,
with over one thousand people who work underneath him, in
one of the most high profile public positions in the
Commonwealth of Massachusetts, has now been charged, arrested, and taken
into custody for extortion. Are you losing confidence in law enforcement?

(31:52):
And are you losing confidence in the authority of law enforcement?
In other words, is this a black eye for the police.
I'm not talking about the men and women on the ground,
but the leadership of law enforcement in Massachusetts that the
corruption now is prevalent even among them, because Sheriff Stevie

(32:18):
Thompson Tompkins, forgive me, Sheriff Steve Tompkins is a crooked,
dirty cop. His sin, his real crime. He just got caught.
Six one seven two six six sixty eight sixty eight.

(32:39):
Craig in New Hampshire, Thanks for holding Craig, and welcome.

Speaker 2 (32:45):
Good morning, Jeff Hi Craig. The reason I'm calling is
going back to the House. Congress gets so wealthy, yes us,
because inside of trading is not illegal for Congress.

Speaker 1 (32:59):
Well, Craig understanding is it's not illegal for members of Congress. Sorry,
it's illegal for members of Congress, but it's not illegal
for their immediate family members. I may be wrong, Craig,
you may be right. I'm just my understanding is they
can't get involved in insider trading. Obviously that's illegal. It's

(33:22):
insider trading is wrong for everybody. But they can't make
trades on stocks, but that their family members can, and
that's the loophole that they're exploiting. Am I wrong on that, Craig.

Speaker 2 (33:37):
I'm gonna say I think you're wrong, only because I
think it was Josh Holly I listened to on another
radio show last week, and he's in the process of
introducing a bill to make it illegal for members of
Congress and inside of trading. But at the moment, it
is not what you explain how they all get rich.

Speaker 1 (33:54):
Well, Craig, I got to tell you, if that law
is on, if they haven't put that law in the books,
they definitely should. I'm Craig, I'm with you all the way.
I mean to me. This is outrageous. It's a blatant
conflict of interest because what these members of Congress vote
on all the time is financial legislation, pharmaceutical legislation, healthcare legislation.

(34:15):
I mean, the possibility to engage in insider trading is
I mean, come on, it's immense. You have to be blind,
so you know what's happening even before the public does.
So that gives you a massive unfair advantage, and that's
how you're able to manipulate the stock market and you know,
get you know, get the right stocks and the right shares,

(34:35):
and that's how you become a multi gazillionaire. Yeah, Craig,
it's not about insider trading, it's about trading. You're right.
Members of Congress can trade on the stock market. You
can't engage in insider trading. Insider trading is illegal for anybody,
but effectively, if you work in Congress, you have inside information.

(34:59):
And least point is that's a form of insider trading,
so you trade in stocks. It should be illegal. So
you're right, members of Congress technically are still able to
buy and sell stock, and I think that should be
completely illegal. I guarantee you, I guarantee you if they
if they now, I don't know if they're going to
vote for it, but I guarantee you if they pass

(35:21):
that law, a lot of members of Congress are certainly
not going to be so rich. I guarantee it. Craig,
thank you very much for that call. I appreciate it.
Six one seven two six six sixty eight sixty eight
is the number, in fact that leads me to the
Cooner Country Pole Question of the Day sponsored by Marios

(35:47):
Marios Quality roofing, siding and windows, and it goes right
to the question that we're talking about now. Should in fact,
let me give you the exact pole question. Okay, here
it is, should members of Congress and their immediate families,

(36:10):
so not just the members of Congress spouses children. Should
members of Congress and their immediate families be barred from
trading on the stock market while they hold office? Ayes
b No, I want to hear from you. I'm a

(36:34):
yes all the way all the way, but that's me.
I want to hear from you. You can vote on
our web page wr KO dot com slash cooner w
r KO dot com slash cooner k u H and
as a national er, you can also vote via x
and again last night I was very active on X

(36:56):
my handle there all one word at the Cooner report
kuh and is in National Er. Uh so, yeah, they
should not be allowed to trade in the stock market
while they hold office. To me, that's a blatant conflict
of interest. But as Nancy Pelosi shows, you don't have
to do it yourself. Just have your husband do it.

(37:19):
You give him the insider information. Or if you're married,
and say, you know to your your wife you're a male,
you're a male member of Congress. You give your wife
insider information, or your children, your sons or daughters, and
they'll make the money for you. That's how the rocket
is played. And Craig is right, it's by manipulating and

(37:40):
playing on the stock market that that's how they're able
to make this fortune. And I mean these extravagant fortunes
six one, seven two six sex sixty eight, sixty eight.
And notice they're all screaming that the system is rigged,
it's rigged all system. I'm like, who's rigging it you?

(38:02):
Who's part of the rigging you? Who's stealing us? You know,
who's robbing us? Blind you? So the very thing you're
decrying is the very thing you're doing. I'd love to
see Elizabeth Warren stock portfolio
