Speaker 1 (00:08):
With over thirty years in the auto industry, he has
deciding to pull back the curtain and show you what's
really inside. This is Bowen's Cars, brought to you by
Chevrolet Buick GMC of Murphreysborough. For all of your automotive
needs call six one five six four five one zero

Speaker 2 (00:29):
Here's your host, bow Driven.
Speaker 3 (00:33):
All right, good morning everybody. I hope everybody had a
wonderful Thanksgiving, got an opportunity to show what you're thankful for.
And UH for all of you suffering from Trump derangement syndrome,
I truly hope you put aside your differences with your
(00:55):
family members and didn't let it impact your thanks Giving
and that you were able to just enjoy life. Touch grass,
eat some turkey, eat some good food if you're a vegan,
eat something else that you like, whatever, but just have
some fellowship with some human beings. That it doesn't all
(01:17):
have to be about politics. It doesn't all have to
be about the aggrieved. It doesn't all have to be
the oppressed and the oppressors. It doesn't all have to
That's not what it's all about. That's not why God
put us here on this earth. Put us here to
live a life full of enjoyment and happiness. And if
you wake up one day and you're at the end
(01:38):
of that life, which I feel, you know, I tell
my wife all the time, I'm sixty one years old.
Most of it's gone now, and I don't know what
the quality of the next twenty or thirty years is
going to be. Like, I hope it's great, and I
hope that all that works out. But in the end,
we have a finite amount of time on this earth,
and spending it being irritated and upset and aggrieved all
(02:01):
the time is such a waste of the life that
God gave you. There's gonna be a time when you're
gonna be standing in front of the pearly gates and
He's gonna go see all these things you could have had,
See this joy you could have had. Instead you wanted
to just you thought chasing a career or chasing something.
(02:25):
All the statistics I read about the women, the females
that are no longer want to have children, and want
no longer want to have relationships, and are good with
being single for the rest of their lives. I don't know.
It just seems very lonely to me. And there will
be a time at which all of those friends will
(02:47):
be gone and you'll be left standing there by yourself,
and it will not be what God intended for your life.
So around a statistic the other day that said that
it's kind of blotting statistics or blurring statistics here a
little bit. But the end result is that a taxpayer
(03:07):
is leaving California every minute and forty four seconds on average,
and now what was supposed to be a six or
seven billion dollar deficit is now going to be a
fifteen billion dollar deficit and growing because of the leftist
policies that have been entrenched in California politics forever. The
(03:29):
same thing's happening in Illinois, the same thing's happening in Chicago,
the same thing is happening in New York. They're just
able to because they have so many large, huge income
earners there. They're able to blot it out a little bit.
But the reality is man Dommy's going he's going to
take a hatchet to it and see if he can
screw it up too. The policies are what got you there,
(03:51):
and this one party control where there's nothing to have
checks and balances on. It causes serious, serious issues, and
we see it in everything from the fact that the
California has the highest homeless population. California has the highest
population of people. I know, California has the highest population
(04:11):
of people overall, I get it, but they also have
the highest population of people per capita on snap. They
have the highest population per capita of homeless people. They
have the highest population of illegal immigrants. They have the
highest population of all of these things that are causing problems.
And one thing that gets overlooked consistently about the illegal
immigration policies was the fact that you have overwhelmed when
(04:35):
you add ten million people, thirty five percent of which
are children, to a system. Somebody's got to be teaching
those children. They get enrolled in schools, in public schools,
and they take up resources that are greater than the
resources of the people who were born here. Because they
people born here already understand English, you're not having to
(04:55):
go back and teach them things that they didn't understand
don't understand, and that takes away from the people who
are actually paying the property taxes and actually paying the
taxes to support the school system, and the teachers only
have so much time in a day. These kids are
absolutely getting the worst education they could possibly get, and
(05:16):
a lot of that currently has to do with the
Biden administrations allowing all of the people just to overrun
the system right now, and schools scared a death of
failing anybody because it's expensive. Apparently if you fail somebody
and you hold a student back to repeat a grade,
but then it opens a school up to legal action
where parents who are pissed off because you failed their
kid because their kid couldn't read or write, and should
(05:38):
be as opposed to being mad at the school for
failing the kid, they should be trying to figure out
what it takes to help the child learn to read
and write and be productive members of society. But insteady
they won't open them up at legal action because you
failed my child.
Speaker 2 (05:55):
No, your child failed.
Speaker 3 (05:56):
I didn't fail your child. Your child wasn't able to
grasp the concepts. There was a National Assessment of Educational
Progress the NAEP they often call it the nation's report
card in twenty twenty five found that just twenty two
percent of students were proficient in math, and thirty five
were proficient in reading, and the percentage of eighth graders
(06:20):
who have below basic reading skills according to this thing,
was the largest it's been in the exam's three decade history,
at thirty three percent. There are costs to everything. Nothing
is free. I don't know how to get that through
to somebody that just lives in La La land. But
(06:40):
nothing is free. And when you add thirty percent more
children to a school system and no more teachers because
you can't get the teachers certified fast enough, it overwhelms
the system and it causes all of the other kids
to fall behind too. How is that fair? In what world?
Speaker 2 (07:00):
Is that fair?
Speaker 3 (07:02):
And yet they will continue to act as if there
is no alternative. Yeah, there is an alternative. By the way,
I want to point this out one more time. Obama
was also declared the deporter in chief. Over six million
people were deported while Obama was president. Ice was doing
the exact same job then as doing now, And yet
(07:24):
you heard nothing from all of the leftists that are
out there protesting Ice now. None of that was going
on back then, or at least the media wasn't complicit,
wasn't showing us we've got to do something guys. We
owe it to these children and this next couple generations
are going to be struggling, and it's going to make
it hard for them to find jobs that are well paying,
(07:45):
and they're just going to be government dependent. All right,
this is Bonos Cars, rants about lots of other stuff,
brought to you by Chevrolet Buick GMC of Murpurysborough. Come
on back. After the break.

Speaker 2 (08:31):
Here's your host, Bowtriven.
Speaker 3 (08:35):
All right, welcome back everybody. So how many times have
we heard trust the science, trust the science, or the
experts say? First of all, I've said this before, I'm
gonna say it again. There are no experts. There are
(08:57):
people who are educated in certain areas and more educated
than others. But you can take two experts at a
trial and have one get on the stand and look
at the exact same amount of evidence and come up
with this conclusion, and one look at the other one
look at the exact same evidence and come up with
a completely separate conclusion. Well, which one of you is
the expert. Well supposedly you're both experts, but both of
(09:19):
you came to completely different conclusions. And so sometimes you
got to follow the money. I said to my wife
the other day we were watching the forty eight Hours.
I said, you think any of those guys have ever
gotten up there on the stand and like not said
what they were supposed to say based on which side
they were testifying for. I mean, that's what they do.
(09:45):
So right now, the CP thirty Climate Conference was gone going,
and I guess Gavin Newsom decided to go down there
and play like he was President of the United States
and represent the United States when he had no right
to do. So. What's funny about that conference, though, is
literally cleared thousands and thousands and thousands of acres of
the rainforest to build a four lane highway to hold
(10:08):
this conference. So they were destroying the I think it
was the Amazon because it was down in Brazil, but uh, yeah,
they destroyed this ecosystem to discuss how they were going
to save the planet, and then the that Greta Van
Tune or whatever her name is, the little climate change
(10:30):
they call it the Doom Pixie, decided that in order
to save the climate, they were going to pour a
bunch of green dye into the Grand Canal over in
Venice the other day. And I'm thinking, you guys are morons.
In order to save the planet, you're gonna dump a
bunch of green dye into the ocean. Seriously. Anyways, so
(10:54):
the United Nations Secretary Antonio Secretary General Antonio Gutierres said
back in March nineteenth, I'm gonna read this quote. Earth
is issuing a distress call the latest state of the
global Earth is issuing a distress call. Fossil fuel pollution
is sending climate chaos off the charts. Sirens are blaring
(11:14):
across all major indicators. Last year saw record heat, record
sea levels, and record ocean surface temperatures. Some records aren't
just chart topping, they're chart busting. Sounds pretty ominous to me,
sounds like, oh my gosh, we're in trouble. Earth's gonna
like collapse here pretty soon. But then the Guardian, no, right,
(11:38):
wing bastion of information. To be sure, they are as
left landing as you can get. But the Guardian posted
an article the other day and here's I'm gonna read
this one to you, or a portion of it. The
melting of sea ice in the Arctic has slowed dramatically
in the past twenty years, scientists have reported, with most
(12:00):
statistically significant decline in its extent since two thousand and five.
The finding is surprising, the researchers say, given that carbon
emissions from fossil fuel burning have continued to rise and
trap even more heat over that time. They said natural
variations in ocean currents that limit ice melting had probably
balanced out the continuing rise in global temperatures. However, they
(12:23):
said this was only a temporary reprieve, and melting was
highly likely to start again at about double the long
term rate at some point in the next five to
ten years. Now, let me just reiterate that. First. They
say there's been no slow it's slowed dramatically in the
last twenty years, which we can't tell you why, because
it wasn't supposed to do this, and we knew it
(12:44):
was going to do that because al Gore came out
and said in inconvenient truth, it's going to happen the Earth,
the polar ice packs are going to be gone. In
fifteen years. We won't be able to have them. And
they've been telling it this this for fifty or sixty years.
In twenty nineteen seventy nine, they said we were going
into another age. By nineteen eighty six, the Earth was
warming so fast we were going to have Florida was
(13:05):
going to be underwater by two thousand and it goes
on and on and on, and they never make any sense.
Now they're trying to tell us, oh, by the way,
we didn't think this was going to happen, but now
we know that that did, and so it's probably only
a reprieve, and in five to ten years it's probably
going to pick up and be double the rate that
(13:27):
it's been, So that will make us right about the
predictions we had fifteen years ago. Meanwhile, we continue to
do everything we can to destroy the modern way of life.
It is our way of life has only been made
(13:48):
possible by energy. That's it. Everything else is a first
of all, energy is the source of everything. Everything in
the universe is energy in one form or fashion. But
our ability to have clean, good energy that is reliable,
(14:14):
that can power all of the things that are happening
in our lives is what's given us this modern lifestyle.
And to thrust us back into to the dark ages
when everybody had to ride a horse. By the way,
that's not going to work with eight and a half
million people out there having to ride horses. It is
absolutely astounding to me that these people continue to act
(14:39):
like they are the ones who are the the truth sayers,
that they know everything about everything, they're the experts, and
we should just listen to them and shut up and
sit over in the corner and let us control your lives.
There was another study that was done not to long
(15:00):
ago that I want to make sure you go. It
was also in the Guardian story. It goes on and
says they were talking about if you look at other
studies analyzing the same data, ice at the polls is
actually expanding. Now. They've been telling us for years that
the ice, the polar ice caps were going away. Now
they're saying, based on these other studies that they're actually expanding.
(15:23):
Here was the quote, the loss of Arctic sea ice
cover has undergone a pronounced slow down over the past
two decades across all months of the year. They suggest
that the pause and Arctic sea ice decline could persist
for several more decades. Together, the two studies remind us
that the global climate system remains unpredictable, defying simplistic expectations
(15:46):
that change moves only in one direction. So what you're
telling me is all the crap you've been feeding us
for the last fifteen to twenty years, and the trillions
of dollars we've spent to try to undo this so
called climate change or or the heating of the climate
is a waste of money because you really don't know
what you're talking about, and none of the models work.
(16:07):
And if you feed the models this information is going
to spit you back out with these answers just based
on the information you put in. But we've all learned
when it comes to computing garbage in, garbage out. And
yet we're supposed to continue to believe you and throw
trillions of dollars at it for what reason. Now, there's
a company out there that's called let me see, I'm
(16:29):
gonna make sure I get the name of the company
right start us. I think is the name of the company,
and it is rarely startup that is talking about. Then
these people have somehow figured out how to get eighty
million dollars worth of funding to use these little strips
of paper that they want to shoot off into the
(16:51):
atmosphere to blot out the sun. You're literally funding blotting
out the sun while other studies are telling you that
the ice caps are actually growing and the temperatures have
actually cooled off over the last twenty years. You guys
are nuts, and all of you that follow it with
(17:12):
this enthusiasm, like all of these people are Jim Jones
down in Guyana and you're just going to follow his
cult because somebody said something that must make it true.
You're destroying industries. The German auto industry right now is
in serious, serious trouble because they went all in on
(17:33):
a lot of those guys on electric and now you've
got to undo the billions of dollars that you've spent
on going one hundred percent electric to save the climate
when nobody wanted it and it wasn't necessary to begin with.
And now the German economy is taking a beating because
of that, because of the climate scolds that were out
there saying you have to do this, you have to
(17:54):
do that. And it turns out none of them actually
knew what they were talking about. Don't you guys ever
feel gypped taken? Don't you ever look back and go
hang on? They lied to me about this. They lied
to me about Hunter's laptop. They lied to me about
(18:15):
the Russian collusion hoax. They lied to me about this.
They admit they lie, and you still continue to believe
the lie that they're telling you. No, I lied, No,
you didn't lie, Yes you did. I don't understand it.
And it is destroying entire cultures. It is destroying entire
ways of life and eating up trillions of dollars that
(18:38):
could have been spent on doing good things that actually
would have helped our world become a much better world. Instead,
we just throw the money away, and there's some people
out there getting rich off of it, not the least
of which are some of the experts. All Right, this
is Bonos cars, rants about lots of other stuff, brought
to you by Chevrolet Buick GMC of Murphysborough. Come on back.
(18:59):
After the break.
Speaker 1 (19:13):
With over thirty years in the auto industry, he has
deciding to pull back the curtain and show you what's
really inside. This is Bowen's Cars, brought to you by

seven five or online Chevrolet Buick GMC of Murphreysboro dot com.
Speaker 2 (19:34):
Here's your host, bow Triven.
Speaker 3 (19:39):
All right, welcome back everybody. So when the Trump administration
took over back in January, there was obviously a period
where there was a flood of stuff coming out and
it was almost impossible to keep up with. And then
it stopped everything from the Epstein files that got released
by Pam Bondi, and it was a stupid release, and
(20:02):
it just made everybody else more suspicious to the Afghanistan report,
and they were trying to figure out who did that
to all kinds of the fact that the Biden administration
had Operation Arctic Frost and was spying on everybody from
(20:23):
seven US senators to some congress people and just all
kinds of stuff. Information was coming out at such a
fast pace it was almost like drinking water from a
fire hose. It was impossible to do. And then it
slowed down, And I think it slowed down a lot
because even though I believe truly in my heart, this
is one of the most transparent, if not the most
transparent administrations in the history of our nation, because they're
(20:46):
not in it for the politics. They're in it to
try to save the country. They're not in it for
some long term job. They really truly just got in
it to do the best they could for the country.
And it has been odd to me that slowed down
quite as much as it has. But if you're still
paying any attention, you know that there's been a flood
(21:07):
of new evidence that January sixth, the so called insurrection,
was probably an inside job, and a lot of it.
They're trying to act as if now it didn't happen
the way that happened, Like Nancy Pelosi is trying to
say that she got shut down trying to call for
the National Guard, when the chief of the Capitol Police said,
(21:30):
absolutely not. I asked you six times and you turned
it down. You were the one turning it down, And
I have the proof. I have all of the messages.
But they know that the media will be complicit in
their lies and just continue to repeat them and they'll
never be called out on them, and so they can
continue to lie with impunity. But the more the information
(21:50):
that comes out, the more I start to think, oh
my god, I truly think that they it was seriously
a plan to try to truly undo Trump from ever
coming back again. So we know now that there were
two hundred and seventy six FBI agents that were in
(22:12):
the crowd. That's what we know now, this is what
they've released. But now that one, you know, remember the
pipe bomb suspect and the January sixth pipe bombs that
for some reason, we could find all of the grandmothers
and grandfathers that had somehow traveled to DC for that day,
and we could track all of them down with facial
recognition software and we could find out all of those
that information so that we could put those people in jail.
(22:34):
But whoever put that pipe bomb right there, we can't
find that person. So I'm just going to read you
something that came out from The Blaze a couple of
weeks ago, and it's a story that was written by
Steve Baker and Joseph Hanneman at The Blaze. So I'm
just going to do it because it may take a second,
(22:55):
but just listen. A forensic analysis of a female former
US Capital officer's gate is nine four is a ninety
four to ninety eight percent match to the unique stride
of the long sought January sixth pipe bomb suspect, according
to Blaze News investigation confirmed by several intelligence sources. A
source close to congressional investigation of January sixth additionally told
Blaze News evidence has emerged recently that pointed towards law
(23:18):
enforcement possibly being involved in the planting of the pipe bombs.
A software algorithm that analyzes walking parameters including flexion which
is needbend, hip extension, speed, step length, cadence, and variants
rated Shawnee Ray Kirkhoff, who's thirty one years old of Alexandria, Virginia,
as a ninety four percent match to the bomb suspect
shown on video from January fifth of twenty twenty one.
(23:41):
The veteran analyst who also who ran the analysis for
Blaze News said that based on visual observations, the program
can struggle with He personally pegged the match at closer
to ninety eight percent. Kirkhoff was a Capitol Police officer
for four and a half years, left the department in
mid twenty one for security detail at the CIA sources
told Blaze News. CIA spokesperson Liz Lyon stated that the
(24:05):
subject worked in campus security. The FBI, which failed to
solve the case in nearly five years of investigation, but
indicated that it was closing in after Blaze News brought
its investigation to intelligence sources was feet from the Falls
church address of the pipe bomb suspect days after January sixth.
According to a Blaze News investigation, former FBI special Agent
(24:27):
Kyle Sarafin realized Friday is just a couple of weeks
ago that he was doing surveillance next door to the
woman now suspected of being the January sixth pipe bomber. Quote,
the FBI put us one door away from the pipe
bomber within days of January six and we were deliberately
pulled away for no logical or logically investigative reason, Sarafin
(24:48):
told Blaze News Friday. And everything about that tells me
that they were involved in a cover up and have
been since day one. So, somehow or another, the Capitol
Police were investigating the pipe bomber and a special agent
or the FBI and special Agent Carol Kyle Sarafin was
(25:14):
one door down from what the where the lady that
actually now is the suspect of the pipe bomb planting
lived And then mysteriously they got pulled off the detail
while they're one door away from where the person that
they're now suspecting actually lives. And I find it hard
to believe that. Let me see, I want to make
(25:37):
sure I read it again. Did I say it correctly? Yeah?
The FBI which failed This is quote the FBI which
failed to solve the case in nearly five years of investigation,
but indicated that it was closing in after Blaze News
brought its investigation to intelligent sources, was feet from the
(26:01):
Falls church address of the pipe bomb suspect. So five
years you've been investigating it. Five years, you've got nothing.
These two independent reporters come to you and say, hey,
this is what we found. This is what we think,
and all of a sudden they go, yeah, well we're
getting close to finding out who actually did it. Now
we you know were this investigation has been ongoing, and
now that you guys have brought this to us, we
appreciate it, but we were already really close. No, you
(26:23):
got caught. Didn't think anybody was going to be able
to put it together. Didn't think people were going to
keep working on it, and they were. And now you're going,
oh my god, yeah, we're we were getting close too.
You know. I always wonder about these cold cases. My
wife and I watched twenty twenty or forty eight hours,
and there'll be a case that's going on for twenty years,
and then all of a sudden, they'll have some familial
(26:45):
DNA and they'll go back and match it up and
they arrest the guy and he's been living this good
life for the last twenty years and he killed some
woman and some guy. And I always think, you know,
they had to think. It's been twenty years years, nothing's
ever happened. I got away with it, and then boom,
(27:05):
all of a sudden, somebody shows up at their door
and says, we have DNA from you from twenty years ago.
Do you remember this woman?
Speaker 2 (27:11):
Uh no not.
Speaker 3 (27:13):
Ultimately, they finally cave, But the reality is that's exactly
what's happening with Pipe Palm. They think they'll just stuff
it away and say, you know, we could never figure
out who it was and just let it go, and
that the American public and everybody else will just forget
about it. It was a dark day in American history.
It should have never happened. But I'm believing more and
more that there was a conspiracy in there to start
(27:37):
it and to ignite the match as much as you could.
I believe that right now, everything that the Democrats are doing,
from the the seditious six telling everybody to not obey
unlawful orders and trying to act like they weren't saying
what they were actually saying, to all of the other
(28:01):
calls for violence and the unwillingness to stop calling for violence,
is meant to provoke those of us on the right
that are like, look, we don't want any of this.
We just want everybody to get along. We can still
disagree on policy and believe that it doesn't have to
be some marriage breaking, family destroying issue. It can just
(28:25):
be Yeah, I don't quite believe that, you don't quite
believe that. Can we find some middle ground here and
all have a good life, which is truly what I
believe President Trump is shooting for. He wants to end
all the wars and said, look, we can all be prosperous.
We don't have to we don't have to have all
of this fighting. We don't have to have all of
these arguments, but you've got to do it with logic.
You can't just be an idiot and running around out
(28:46):
there and saying mean stuff to everybody. The left will
never understand Trump. Last week he had a meeting with
Zoran Mendami, who is going to be the mayor of
New York City. And he was gracious, he was kind,
(29:06):
he was funny, he was a good host. He was
all of the things that the left will tell you
Trump never is, which he always is. He's always got
that type of person until you poke the bear. When
you poke the bear and continue to come at him
and continue to call him things, he's not going to
back down. But if you want to be a gracious host,
(29:28):
he'll be a gracious guest. If you need a gracious
host and you're a gracious guest, he'll be all of that.
Look at Bill Maher. The left absolutely destroyed Bill Maher
for going to dinner with him. He's like, I can't
even have dinner with the guy without you guys saying
I want to find out who he really is. And
by the way, I kind of like him. We don't
agree on policy, but I kind of like him. He's
(29:48):
the same guy that when when I think it's Steve Adams,
I think that's his name, the guy that created Dilbert
is going through cancer, and the president of the the
United States took the time to pick up the phone
and call this man and ask him how he was doing.
You know why, because he truly, genuinely cares. It's not
(30:10):
this fake, made up I talked to all six of
my grandchildren every single day. Well you have seven there, Joe,
Are you just forgetting about the other one that your
son had that you guys completely ignore and act like
she doesn't exist. That's not what Trump does. He's like,
I love everybody, I want everybody to get along, but
if you're gonna poke the bear, I'm going to come
out claws out, just the way it's gonna be. You
(30:32):
want to be friends, we'll be friends. You want to talk,
we'll talk. I can talk to Putin because even though
I'm not gonna put up with this crap, Hey, I
got to get him to the table. And the only
way I can do it, it's not gonna be by
insulting him or acting like he's the scourge of the earth.
That doesn't work. He never will understand this, man, I
don't understand why. All right, this is Bonos Cars. Rant's
(30:54):
about lots and lots of other stuff, brought to you
by Chevrolet Buick GMC of Murphysborough. Come on back. After

Speaker 2 (31:36):
Here's your host, bow Driven.
Speaker 3 (31:40):
All right, Welcome back, everybody. So I grew up in
a very small town. My father owned a Ford dealership,
but it was in between Saint Augustine and Daytona in
Flagler County, Florida and Flagger County, our county. Flag The
(32:04):
county symbol was a potato because we had a lot
of potato farms. Very small surf town called Flagler Beach,
where a five time women's World surfing champion by the
name of Frieda Zamba, who I actually graduated with, began
surfing back in the late seventies early eighties and then
(32:25):
went on to become five time Women's World Surfing champion.
It was we had two schools. We had one elementary
school where everybody in the county went to one elementary school,
and then that was K through six and then we
had our high school, which was seventh through twelfth grade.
My graduating class was eighty two kids. I tell you
(32:46):
that because we worked hard. We had a rule. I've
said this on the show Before My House. My father
had a rule that was, either you're working or you're
playing a sport. You're not going to have any idle time.
It's just that simple. And so I did both. I
tried to play sports whenever I could, just simply because
it seemed like more fun than actually going to work.
(33:08):
But during the summer, when there were no sports, I worked.
I did everything from loading hay, which back in the day,
we didn't have these giant hay balers that bailed these
giant rolls of hay. We bailed them up in fifty
pounds bales of hay, and you walk behind a pickup truck,
reached down, grab it and threw it up into the
back of the pickup truck and I loaded watermelons for
(33:34):
during watermelon season for three or four weeks for I
don't know, two bucks an hour. It was hard work,
it was good work in that, you know, back then
it didn't cost the same thing to live. So when
I was making two to three dollars an hour and
we got a little bonus if we got you know,
more hay thrown or more watermelons stacked, it was it
(33:58):
was decent money. I could go out and have a
good time. But I was willing to do those jobs,
and so were all the other teenage guys that worked
with me and played ball with me. I started off
before I went into the car business. I started off
at a meatpacking plant. I was doing everything from running
(34:22):
the meat back and forth from the freezer and helping
with that, to cleaning the place up every night. And
it was also again hard work, but everybody's willing to
do it. I say that because I've heard this lie
from politicians for quite some time now that those are
(34:44):
jobs Americans won't do, and that is an absolute bald
face lie. What it is is jobs that Americans won't
do for below normal wages in danger risk conditions that
have no regulations. When I was building my house about
(35:05):
eight years ago. I remember, I don't know how many
of the people that were building my house were illegal.
I hired a builder, and he hired subcontractors, and so
it went. I don't know if it was plausible deniability,
I don't know, but I knew that a lot of
the people that working on the job site didn't speak
any English. They worked really hard, and I have no
(35:26):
idea what they were getting paid. None. I knew what
id I was paying the builder to build the house,
and that was it. Nothing else did I know. But
I watched those guys, the roofers walk across a ten
to twelve pitch and if you've never been on a
ten twelve pitch roof, it is not easy to walk
on and walk across the stringer at the top of
(35:49):
that roof, looking down about thirty five feet because it's
a two story house, and thinking, oh my god, it
wouldn't take but one slip for those guys to actually
drop thirty feet and hurt themselves really bad. But I
guarantee you that at some point they weren't meeting all
of the OSHA standards. They weren't carrying all of the
(36:12):
workmen's comp that they probably were supposed to carry. They
didn't do all of the things that were needed to
be done to do it legally and the right way,
and it probably saved me money. It probably did I
am probably a recipient of that. I have no idea,
but the jobs that Americans will do are there, we
(36:32):
would do them. There was a meatpacking I think it
was a meatpacking plant in Nebraska. Recently they got raided
by ice and they took out forty or fifty or
it was a lot of the workers at this plant
that had been there illegally. The next day the plant
hr office was full of people wanting those jobs, full
(36:54):
of people wanting the jobs, willing to take the jobs.
This is a problem his In nineteen eighty six, President
Reagan signed an amnesty bill, and there were times when
he said it was the worst decision he ever made,
because it was the one bill he really would want
to take back, because there was a there was a
bargain one time legalization. Now. It was like a two
(37:18):
point two million people got legalized in this one bill,
but it was it was supposed to be one time
legalization now. And then Parrot was strict employer enforcement later,
and so all the law or the lawmakers back then
promised that the illegal immigration would finally be solved once
and for all. So Congress did uphold one part of it.
(37:42):
They granted the amnesty to all of the illegal aliens
that were here at the time, but they never enforced
the laws to make sure that people that were working
here in the United States were doing it legally and
above the above board. And now we're back to the
(38:03):
same problem. And I don't know how it gets solved.
What I know is it needs to be resolved somehow,
and it cannot be at the expense of all of
the American workers that are out there that are willing
to do the jobs, want to do the jobs, willing
to do the jobs, but cannot compete in a market
where people are doing it under the table and not
(38:24):
paying all of the same taxes, and not paying all
the same insurances, and not abiding by all of the
same regulations, And so the employers don't have It's an
economics matter. If other employers are doing it and I
don't do it, now I'm at a competitive disadvantage and
can't sell my products, and I go out of business
if I do do it. I'm now driving wages down,
(38:45):
which I don't necessarily want to do by hiring illegal
workers to do things and doing it the wrong way.
This is an enforcement issue as much as anything. All
of these trucking companies out there that are hiring illegal
aliens that don't have the ability to read or write
in English or communicate in English and are trying to
(39:07):
haul eighty thousand pound rigs up and down the highways.
That's not the person who's trying to get the job.
They're truly just trying to feed their families. I don't
blame them, I understand it, but there has to be
some sort of enforcement mechanism that takes to task the
actual employers that are hiring them when they shouldn't be
to begin with. There are ways to do it and
(39:30):
get green cards and work permits and other ways to
do it that will work. And we have a lot
of open jobs in the United States right now. I
can tell you that right now, in the automobile business,
for instance, we probably are I'm going to guess three
hundred thousand to four hundred thousand technicians shy of where
(39:52):
we need to be right now in the marketplace, which
is why it's so difficult to get your car fixed,
it's so difficult to get anything done in any timeframe
that's normal and reasonable. It's we don't have the employers
or the employees to be able to do the jobs.
And there are technical jobs that require some sort of
training and expertise to be able to rebuild an engine
or a transmission. I don't know what the answer is,
(40:15):
but we're gonna have to find something, because it's not
true that Americans won't do those jobs. It is true
that Americans have to do those jobs based on being
on the books. And if they're on the books, they
have to abide by all the taxes and the other
regulations that go along with it, which makes it difficult
for the employers to hire the actual legal workers. All Right,
(40:43):
So the last thing I wanted to talk about was
I read an article the other day and I was
thinking about it, and it struck me because I am
I'm proud to live in the United States of America.
I am proud. We have our issues. I've talked about
it many many times. Look, we're not perfect. No country
is perfect. No, whether it's capitalism or socialism or Marxism,
(41:08):
none of those are perfect, but nothing. There's problems with everything.
There is no utopia. Man has free will and they're
going to screw it up many, many times. But what
is it to be an American? Because I can tell you,
in the forties and fifties, to be an American was
a way of life. It was you were proud of
(41:29):
your country. You had fought against communism, you had stood
up for capitalism. At our unique freedoms that we all
want and should have if we were living in a
world that believed in everything that we believe in. There's
a reason. The freedoms that we now enjoy are the
(41:52):
main reason why our society has advanced to the point
that it has versus most of the other societies in
the country, the world. The freedoms we enjoy have given
us the opportunity to be uniquely American. But that word
is being split, it's being split in two, and it
(42:14):
no longer means the same thing to everybody. People now
are saying that if you can be American just by
having the same values, and while that may be partly true,
you can't assimilate into the American way of life if
you're not willing to do that. If you think that
(42:35):
just believing the way the left believes or the right
believes makes you an American. It does not. I don't
know how we get back. We've got to change the
meaning of the word first, because there are people out
there who saying this is what it means to be
an American versus this is what it means to be
an American. I take the traditional definition of being an American,
(42:57):
of patriotism and history and the law abiding and traditions
and all of those things. That's the way I feel
about the word. But there are a lot of people
out there now that feel like that's not what the
word means. It just means simply to live in America,
(43:18):
and that you can be an American even if you
are Somali and living in Minnesota. You're now an American
because you live on the land that is occupied by
the United States of America. That's not what it is.
And we've got to get back to actually the meaning
of the word that defines us as a country and
(43:40):
as a sovereign nation. I hope we do it quick,
because if not, I don't know where we end up.
Who knows. Good news. I'm old. I want to deal
with it. All right. This is Bonos Cars Ranch about
a lot of other stuff, brought to by Chevrolet Buick
GMC of Murphysborough. I hope you guys come on back
next week. Have a great weekend. Everybody. M

Speaker 2 (00:29):
Here's your host, bow Driven.
Speaker 3 (00:33):
All right, good morning everybody. I hope everybody had a
wonderful Thanksgiving, got an opportunity to show what you're thankful for.
And UH for all of you suffering from Trump derangement syndrome,
I truly hope you put aside your differences with your
(00:55):
family members and didn't let it impact your thanks Giving
and that you were able to just enjoy life. Touch grass,
eat some turkey, eat some good food if you're a vegan,
eat something else that you like, whatever, but just have
some fellowship with some human beings. That it doesn't all
(01:17):
have to be about politics. It doesn't all have to
be about the aggrieved. It doesn't all have to be
the oppressed and the oppressors. It doesn't all have to
That's not what it's all about. That's not why God
put us here on this earth. Put us here to
live a life full of enjoyment and happiness. And if
you wake up one day and you're at the end
(01:38):
of that life, which I feel, you know, I tell
my wife all the time, I'm sixty one years old.
Most of it's gone now, and I don't know what
the quality of the next twenty or thirty years is
going to be. Like, I hope it's great, and I
hope that all that works out. But in the end,
we have a finite amount of time on this earth,
and spending it being irritated and upset and aggrieved all
(02:01):
the time is such a waste of the life that
God gave you. There's gonna be a time when you're
gonna be standing in front of the pearly gates and
He's gonna go see all these things you could have had,
See this joy you could have had. Instead you wanted
to just you thought chasing a career or chasing something.
(02:25):
All the statistics I read about the women, the females
that are no longer want to have children, and want
no longer want to have relationships, and are good with
being single for the rest of their lives. I don't know.
It just seems very lonely to me. And there will
be a time at which all of those friends will
(02:47):
be gone and you'll be left standing there by yourself,
and it will not be what God intended for your life.
So around a statistic the other day that said that
it's kind of blotting statistics or blurring statistics here a
little bit. But the end result is that a taxpayer
(03:07):
is leaving California every minute and forty four seconds on average,
and now what was supposed to be a six or
seven billion dollar deficit is now going to be a
fifteen billion dollar deficit and growing because of the leftist
policies that have been entrenched in California politics forever. The
(03:29):
same thing's happening in Illinois, the same thing's happening in Chicago,
the same thing is happening in New York. They're just
able to because they have so many large, huge income
earners there. They're able to blot it out a little bit.
But the reality is man Dommy's going he's going to
take a hatchet to it and see if he can
screw it up too. The policies are what got you there,
(03:51):
and this one party control where there's nothing to have
checks and balances on. It causes serious, serious issues, and
we see it in everything from the fact that the
California has the highest homeless population. California has the highest
population of people. I know, California has the highest population
(04:11):
of people overall, I get it, but they also have
the highest population of people per capita on snap. They
have the highest population per capita of homeless people. They
have the highest population of illegal immigrants. They have the
highest population of all of these things that are causing problems.
And one thing that gets overlooked consistently about the illegal
immigration policies was the fact that you have overwhelmed when
(04:35):
you add ten million people, thirty five percent of which
are children, to a system. Somebody's got to be teaching
those children. They get enrolled in schools, in public schools,
and they take up resources that are greater than the
resources of the people who were born here. Because they
people born here already understand English, you're not having to
(04:55):
go back and teach them things that they didn't understand
don't understand, and that takes away from the people who
are actually paying the property taxes and actually paying the
taxes to support the school system, and the teachers only
have so much time in a day. These kids are
absolutely getting the worst education they could possibly get, and
(05:16):
a lot of that currently has to do with the
Biden administrations allowing all of the people just to overrun
the system right now, and schools scared a death of
failing anybody because it's expensive. Apparently if you fail somebody
and you hold a student back to repeat a grade,
but then it opens a school up to legal action
where parents who are pissed off because you failed their
kid because their kid couldn't read or write, and should
(05:38):
be as opposed to being mad at the school for
failing the kid, they should be trying to figure out
what it takes to help the child learn to read
and write and be productive members of society. But insteady
they won't open them up at legal action because you
failed my child.
Speaker 2 (05:55):
No, your child failed.
Speaker 3 (05:56):
I didn't fail your child. Your child wasn't able to
grasp the concepts. There was a National Assessment of Educational
Progress the NAEP they often call it the nation's report
card in twenty twenty five found that just twenty two
percent of students were proficient in math, and thirty five
were proficient in reading, and the percentage of eighth graders
(06:20):
who have below basic reading skills according to this thing,
was the largest it's been in the exam's three decade history,
at thirty three percent. There are costs to everything. Nothing
is free. I don't know how to get that through
to somebody that just lives in La La land. But
(06:40):
nothing is free. And when you add thirty percent more
children to a school system and no more teachers because
you can't get the teachers certified fast enough, it overwhelms
the system and it causes all of the other kids
to fall behind too. How is that fair? In what world?
Speaker 2 (07:00):
Is that fair?
Speaker 3 (07:02):
And yet they will continue to act as if there
is no alternative. Yeah, there is an alternative. By the way,
I want to point this out one more time. Obama
was also declared the deporter in chief. Over six million
people were deported while Obama was president. Ice was doing
the exact same job then as doing now, And yet
(07:24):
you heard nothing from all of the leftists that are
out there protesting Ice now. None of that was going
on back then, or at least the media wasn't complicit,
wasn't showing us we've got to do something guys. We
owe it to these children and this next couple generations
are going to be struggling, and it's going to make
it hard for them to find jobs that are well paying,
(07:45):
and they're just going to be government dependent. All right,
this is Bonos Cars, rants about lots of other stuff,
brought to you by Chevrolet Buick GMC of Murpurysborough. Come
on back. After the break.
Speaker 1 (08:10):

Speaker 2 (08:31):
Here's your host, Bowtriven.
Speaker 3 (08:35):
All right, welcome back everybody. So how many times have
we heard trust the science, trust the science, or the
experts say? First of all, I've said this before, I'm
gonna say it again. There are no experts. There are
(08:57):
people who are educated in certain areas and more educated
than others. But you can take two experts at a
trial and have one get on the stand and look
at the exact same amount of evidence and come up
with this conclusion, and one look at the other one
look at the exact same evidence and come up with
a completely separate conclusion. Well, which one of you is
the expert. Well supposedly you're both experts, but both of
(09:19):
you came to completely different conclusions. And so sometimes you
got to follow the money. I said to my wife
the other day we were watching the forty eight Hours.
I said, you think any of those guys have ever
gotten up there on the stand and like not said
what they were supposed to say based on which side
they were testifying for. I mean, that's what they do.
(09:45):
So right now, the CP thirty Climate Conference was gone going,
and I guess Gavin Newsom decided to go down there
and play like he was President of the United States
and represent the United States when he had no right
to do. So. What's funny about that conference, though, is
literally cleared thousands and thousands and thousands of acres of
the rainforest to build a four lane highway to hold
(10:08):
this conference. So they were destroying the I think it
was the Amazon because it was down in Brazil, but uh, yeah,
they destroyed this ecosystem to discuss how they were going
to save the planet, and then the that Greta Van
Tune or whatever her name is, the little climate change
(10:30):
they call it the Doom Pixie, decided that in order
to save the climate, they were going to pour a
bunch of green dye into the Grand Canal over in
Venice the other day. And I'm thinking, you guys are morons.
In order to save the planet, you're gonna dump a
bunch of green dye into the ocean. Seriously. Anyways, so
(10:54):
the United Nations Secretary Antonio Secretary General Antonio Gutierres said
back in March nineteenth, I'm gonna read this quote. Earth
is issuing a distress call the latest state of the
global Earth is issuing a distress call. Fossil fuel pollution
is sending climate chaos off the charts. Sirens are blaring
(11:14):
across all major indicators. Last year saw record heat, record
sea levels, and record ocean surface temperatures. Some records aren't
just chart topping, they're chart busting. Sounds pretty ominous to me,
sounds like, oh my gosh, we're in trouble. Earth's gonna
like collapse here pretty soon. But then the Guardian, no, right,
(11:38):
wing bastion of information. To be sure, they are as
left landing as you can get. But the Guardian posted
an article the other day and here's I'm gonna read
this one to you, or a portion of it. The
melting of sea ice in the Arctic has slowed dramatically
in the past twenty years, scientists have reported, with most
(12:00):
statistically significant decline in its extent since two thousand and five.
The finding is surprising, the researchers say, given that carbon
emissions from fossil fuel burning have continued to rise and
trap even more heat over that time. They said natural
variations in ocean currents that limit ice melting had probably
balanced out the continuing rise in global temperatures. However, they
(12:23):
said this was only a temporary reprieve, and melting was
highly likely to start again at about double the long
term rate at some point in the next five to
ten years. Now, let me just reiterate that. First. They
say there's been no slow it's slowed dramatically in the
last twenty years, which we can't tell you why, because
it wasn't supposed to do this, and we knew it
(12:44):
was going to do that because al Gore came out
and said in inconvenient truth, it's going to happen the Earth,
the polar ice packs are going to be gone. In
fifteen years. We won't be able to have them. And
they've been telling it this this for fifty or sixty years.
In twenty nineteen seventy nine, they said we were going
into another age. By nineteen eighty six, the Earth was
warming so fast we were going to have Florida was
(13:05):
going to be underwater by two thousand and it goes
on and on and on, and they never make any sense.
Now they're trying to tell us, oh, by the way,
we didn't think this was going to happen, but now
we know that that did, and so it's probably only
a reprieve, and in five to ten years it's probably
going to pick up and be double the rate that
(13:27):
it's been, So that will make us right about the
predictions we had fifteen years ago. Meanwhile, we continue to
do everything we can to destroy the modern way of life.
It is our way of life has only been made
(13:48):
possible by energy. That's it. Everything else is a first
of all, energy is the source of everything. Everything in
the universe is energy in one form or fashion. But
our ability to have clean, good energy that is reliable,
(14:14):
that can power all of the things that are happening
in our lives is what's given us this modern lifestyle.
And to thrust us back into to the dark ages
when everybody had to ride a horse. By the way,
that's not going to work with eight and a half
million people out there having to ride horses. It is
absolutely astounding to me that these people continue to act
(14:39):
like they are the ones who are the the truth sayers,
that they know everything about everything, they're the experts, and
we should just listen to them and shut up and
sit over in the corner and let us control your lives.
There was another study that was done not to long
(15:00):
ago that I want to make sure you go. It
was also in the Guardian story. It goes on and
says they were talking about if you look at other
studies analyzing the same data, ice at the polls is
actually expanding. Now. They've been telling us for years that
the ice, the polar ice caps were going away. Now
they're saying, based on these other studies that they're actually expanding.
(15:23):
Here was the quote, the loss of Arctic sea ice
cover has undergone a pronounced slow down over the past
two decades across all months of the year. They suggest
that the pause and Arctic sea ice decline could persist
for several more decades. Together, the two studies remind us
that the global climate system remains unpredictable, defying simplistic expectations
(15:46):
that change moves only in one direction. So what you're
telling me is all the crap you've been feeding us
for the last fifteen to twenty years, and the trillions
of dollars we've spent to try to undo this so
called climate change or or the heating of the climate
is a waste of money because you really don't know
what you're talking about, and none of the models work.
(16:07):
And if you feed the models this information is going
to spit you back out with these answers just based
on the information you put in. But we've all learned
when it comes to computing garbage in, garbage out. And
yet we're supposed to continue to believe you and throw
trillions of dollars at it for what reason. Now, there's
a company out there that's called let me see, I'm
(16:29):
gonna make sure I get the name of the company
right start us. I think is the name of the company,
and it is rarely startup that is talking about. Then
these people have somehow figured out how to get eighty
million dollars worth of funding to use these little strips
of paper that they want to shoot off into the
(16:51):
atmosphere to blot out the sun. You're literally funding blotting
out the sun while other studies are telling you that
the ice caps are actually growing and the temperatures have
actually cooled off over the last twenty years. You guys
are nuts, and all of you that follow it with
(17:12):
this enthusiasm, like all of these people are Jim Jones
down in Guyana and you're just going to follow his
cult because somebody said something that must make it true.
You're destroying industries. The German auto industry right now is
in serious, serious trouble because they went all in on
(17:33):
a lot of those guys on electric and now you've
got to undo the billions of dollars that you've spent
on going one hundred percent electric to save the climate
when nobody wanted it and it wasn't necessary to begin with.
And now the German economy is taking a beating because
of that, because of the climate scolds that were out
there saying you have to do this, you have to
(17:54):
do that. And it turns out none of them actually
knew what they were talking about. Don't you guys ever
feel gypped taken? Don't you ever look back and go
hang on? They lied to me about this. They lied
to me about Hunter's laptop. They lied to me about
(18:15):
the Russian collusion hoax. They lied to me about this.
They admit they lie, and you still continue to believe
the lie that they're telling you. No, I lied, No,
you didn't lie, Yes you did. I don't understand it.
And it is destroying entire cultures. It is destroying entire
ways of life and eating up trillions of dollars that
(18:38):
could have been spent on doing good things that actually
would have helped our world become a much better world. Instead,
we just throw the money away, and there's some people

Speaker 2 (19:34):
Here's your host, bow Triven.
Speaker 3 (19:39):
All right, welcome back everybody. So when the Trump administration
took over back in January, there was obviously a period
where there was a flood of stuff coming out and
it was almost impossible to keep up with. And then
it stopped everything from the Epstein files that got released
by Pam Bondi, and it was a stupid release, and
(20:02):
it just made everybody else more suspicious to the Afghanistan report,
and they were trying to figure out who did that
to all kinds of the fact that the Biden administration
had Operation Arctic Frost and was spying on everybody from
(20:23):
seven US senators to some congress people and just all
kinds of stuff. Information was coming out at such a
fast pace it was almost like drinking water from a
fire hose. It was impossible to do. And then it
slowed down, And I think it slowed down a lot
because even though I believe truly in my heart, this
is one of the most transparent, if not the most
transparent administrations in the history of our nation, because they're
(20:46):
not in it for the politics. They're in it to
try to save the country. They're not in it for
some long term job. They really truly just got in
it to do the best they could for the country.
And it has been odd to me that slowed down
quite as much as it has. But if you're still
paying any attention, you know that there's been a flood
(21:07):
of new evidence that January sixth, the so called insurrection,
was probably an inside job, and a lot of it.
They're trying to act as if now it didn't happen
the way that happened, Like Nancy Pelosi is trying to
say that she got shut down trying to call for
the National Guard, when the chief of the Capitol Police said,
(21:30):
absolutely not. I asked you six times and you turned
it down. You were the one turning it down, And
I have the proof. I have all of the messages.
But they know that the media will be complicit in
their lies and just continue to repeat them and they'll
never be called out on them, and so they can
continue to lie with impunity. But the more the information
(21:50):
that comes out, the more I start to think, oh
my god, I truly think that they it was seriously
a plan to try to truly undo Trump from ever
coming back again. So we know now that there were
two hundred and seventy six FBI agents that were in
(22:12):
the crowd. That's what we know now, this is what
they've released. But now that one, you know, remember the
pipe bomb suspect and the January sixth pipe bombs that
for some reason, we could find all of the grandmothers
and grandfathers that had somehow traveled to DC for that day,
and we could track all of them down with facial
recognition software and we could find out all of those
that information so that we could put those people in jail.
(22:34):
But whoever put that pipe bomb right there, we can't
find that person. So I'm just going to read you
something that came out from The Blaze a couple of
weeks ago, and it's a story that was written by
Steve Baker and Joseph Hanneman at The Blaze. So I'm
just going to do it because it may take a second,
(22:55):
but just listen. A forensic analysis of a female former
US Capital officer's gate is nine four is a ninety
four to ninety eight percent match to the unique stride
of the long sought January sixth pipe bomb suspect, according
to Blaze News investigation confirmed by several intelligence sources. A
source close to congressional investigation of January sixth additionally told
Blaze News evidence has emerged recently that pointed towards law
(23:18):
enforcement possibly being involved in the planting of the pipe bombs.
A software algorithm that analyzes walking parameters including flexion which
is needbend, hip extension, speed, step length, cadence, and variants
rated Shawnee Ray Kirkhoff, who's thirty one years old of Alexandria, Virginia,
as a ninety four percent match to the bomb suspect
shown on video from January fifth of twenty twenty one.
(23:41):
The veteran analyst who also who ran the analysis for
Blaze News said that based on visual observations, the program
can struggle with He personally pegged the match at closer
to ninety eight percent. Kirkhoff was a Capitol Police officer
for four and a half years, left the department in
mid twenty one for security detail at the CIA sources
told Blaze News. CIA spokesperson Liz Lyon stated that the
(24:05):
subject worked in campus security. The FBI, which failed to
solve the case in nearly five years of investigation, but
indicated that it was closing in after Blaze News brought
its investigation to intelligence sources was feet from the Falls
church address of the pipe bomb suspect days after January sixth.
According to a Blaze News investigation, former FBI special Agent
(24:27):
Kyle Sarafin realized Friday is just a couple of weeks
ago that he was doing surveillance next door to the
woman now suspected of being the January sixth pipe bomber. Quote,
the FBI put us one door away from the pipe
bomber within days of January six and we were deliberately
pulled away for no logical or logically investigative reason, Sarafin
(24:48):
told Blaze News Friday. And everything about that tells me
that they were involved in a cover up and have
been since day one. So, somehow or another, the Capitol
Police were investigating the pipe bomber and a special agent
or the FBI and special Agent Carol Kyle Sarafin was
(25:14):
one door down from what the where the lady that
actually now is the suspect of the pipe bomb planting
lived And then mysteriously they got pulled off the detail
while they're one door away from where the person that
they're now suspecting actually lives. And I find it hard
to believe that. Let me see, I want to make
(25:37):
sure I read it again. Did I say it correctly? Yeah?
The FBI which failed This is quote the FBI which
failed to solve the case in nearly five years of investigation,
but indicated that it was closing in after Blaze News
brought its investigation to intelligent sources, was feet from the
(26:01):
Falls church address of the pipe bomb suspect. So five
years you've been investigating it. Five years, you've got nothing.
These two independent reporters come to you and say, hey,
this is what we found. This is what we think,
and all of a sudden they go, yeah, well we're
getting close to finding out who actually did it. Now
we you know were this investigation has been ongoing, and
now that you guys have brought this to us, we
appreciate it, but we were already really close. No, you
(26:23):
got caught. Didn't think anybody was going to be able
to put it together. Didn't think people were going to
keep working on it, and they were. And now you're going,
oh my god, yeah, we're we were getting close too.
You know. I always wonder about these cold cases. My
wife and I watched twenty twenty or forty eight hours,
and there'll be a case that's going on for twenty years,
and then all of a sudden, they'll have some familial
(26:45):
DNA and they'll go back and match it up and
they arrest the guy and he's been living this good
life for the last twenty years and he killed some
woman and some guy. And I always think, you know,
they had to think. It's been twenty years years, nothing's
ever happened. I got away with it, and then boom,
(27:05):
all of a sudden, somebody shows up at their door
and says, we have DNA from you from twenty years ago.
Do you remember this woman?
Speaker 2 (27:11):
Uh no not.
Speaker 3 (27:13):
Ultimately, they finally cave, But the reality is that's exactly
what's happening with Pipe Palm. They think they'll just stuff
it away and say, you know, we could never figure
out who it was and just let it go, and
that the American public and everybody else will just forget
about it. It was a dark day in American history.
It should have never happened. But I'm believing more and
more that there was a conspiracy in there to start
(27:37):
it and to ignite the match as much as you could.
I believe that right now, everything that the Democrats are doing,
from the the seditious six telling everybody to not obey
unlawful orders and trying to act like they weren't saying
what they were actually saying, to all of the other
(28:01):
calls for violence and the unwillingness to stop calling for violence,
is meant to provoke those of us on the right
that are like, look, we don't want any of this.
We just want everybody to get along. We can still
disagree on policy and believe that it doesn't have to
be some marriage breaking, family destroying issue. It can just
(28:25):
be Yeah, I don't quite believe that, you don't quite
believe that. Can we find some middle ground here and
all have a good life, which is truly what I
believe President Trump is shooting for. He wants to end
all the wars and said, look, we can all be prosperous.
We don't have to we don't have to have all
of this fighting. We don't have to have all of
these arguments, but you've got to do it with logic.
You can't just be an idiot and running around out
(28:46):
there and saying mean stuff to everybody. The left will
never understand Trump. Last week he had a meeting with
Zoran Mendami, who is going to be the mayor of
New York City. And he was gracious, he was kind,
(29:06):
he was funny, he was a good host. He was
all of the things that the left will tell you
Trump never is, which he always is. He's always got
that type of person until you poke the bear. When
you poke the bear and continue to come at him
and continue to call him things, he's not going to
back down. But if you want to be a gracious host,
(29:28):
he'll be a gracious guest. If you need a gracious
host and you're a gracious guest, he'll be all of that.
Look at Bill Maher. The left absolutely destroyed Bill Maher
for going to dinner with him. He's like, I can't
even have dinner with the guy without you guys saying
I want to find out who he really is. And
by the way, I kind of like him. We don't
agree on policy, but I kind of like him. He's
(29:48):
the same guy that when when I think it's Steve Adams,
I think that's his name, the guy that created Dilbert
is going through cancer, and the president of the the
United States took the time to pick up the phone
and call this man and ask him how he was doing.
You know why, because he truly, genuinely cares. It's not
(30:10):
this fake, made up I talked to all six of
my grandchildren every single day. Well you have seven there, Joe,
Are you just forgetting about the other one that your
son had that you guys completely ignore and act like
she doesn't exist. That's not what Trump does. He's like,
I love everybody, I want everybody to get along, but
if you're gonna poke the bear, I'm going to come
out claws out, just the way it's gonna be. You
(30:32):
want to be friends, we'll be friends. You want to talk,
we'll talk. I can talk to Putin because even though
I'm not gonna put up with this crap, Hey, I
got to get him to the table. And the only
way I can do it, it's not gonna be by
insulting him or acting like he's the scourge of the earth.
That doesn't work. He never will understand this, man, I
don't understand why. All right, this is Bonos Cars. Rant's
(30:54):
about lots and lots of other stuff, brought to you
by Chevrolet Buick GMC of Murphysborough. Come on back. After
the break.

really inside. This is Bowen's Cars, brought to you by

Speaker 2 (31:36):
Here's your host, bow Driven.
Speaker 3 (31:40):
All right, Welcome back, everybody. So I grew up in
a very small town. My father owned a Ford dealership,
but it was in between Saint Augustine and Daytona in
Flagler County, Florida and Flagger County, our county. Flag The
(32:04):
county symbol was a potato because we had a lot
of potato farms. Very small surf town called Flagler Beach,
where a five time women's World surfing champion by the
name of Frieda Zamba, who I actually graduated with, began
surfing back in the late seventies early eighties and then
(32:25):
went on to become five time Women's World Surfing champion.
It was we had two schools. We had one elementary
school where everybody in the county went to one elementary school,
and then that was K through six and then we
had our high school, which was seventh through twelfth grade.
My graduating class was eighty two kids. I tell you
(32:46):
that because we worked hard. We had a rule. I've
said this on the show Before My House. My father
had a rule that was, either you're working or you're
playing a sport. You're not going to have any idle time.
It's just that simple. And so I did both. I
tried to play sports whenever I could, just simply because
it seemed like more fun than actually going to work.
(33:08):
But during the summer, when there were no sports, I worked.
I did everything from loading hay, which back in the day,
we didn't have these giant hay balers that bailed these
giant rolls of hay. We bailed them up in fifty
pounds bales of hay, and you walk behind a pickup truck,
reached down, grab it and threw it up into the
back of the pickup truck and I loaded watermelons for
(33:34):
during watermelon season for three or four weeks for I
don't know, two bucks an hour. It was hard work,
it was good work in that, you know, back then
it didn't cost the same thing to live. So when
I was making two to three dollars an hour and
we got a little bonus if we got you know,
more hay thrown or more watermelons stacked, it was it
(33:58):
was decent money. I could go out and have a
good time. But I was willing to do those jobs,
and so were all the other teenage guys that worked
with me and played ball with me. I started off
before I went into the car business. I started off
at a meatpacking plant. I was doing everything from running
(34:22):
the meat back and forth from the freezer and helping
with that, to cleaning the place up every night. And
it was also again hard work, but everybody's willing to
do it. I say that because I've heard this lie
from politicians for quite some time now that those are
(34:44):
jobs Americans won't do, and that is an absolute bald
face lie. What it is is jobs that Americans won't
do for below normal wages in danger risk conditions that
have no regulations. When I was building my house about
(35:05):
eight years ago. I remember, I don't know how many
of the people that were building my house were illegal.
I hired a builder, and he hired subcontractors, and so
it went. I don't know if it was plausible deniability,
I don't know, but I knew that a lot of
the people that working on the job site didn't speak
any English. They worked really hard, and I have no
(35:26):
idea what they were getting paid. None. I knew what
id I was paying the builder to build the house,
and that was it. Nothing else did I know. But
I watched those guys, the roofers walk across a ten
to twelve pitch and if you've never been on a
ten twelve pitch roof, it is not easy to walk
on and walk across the stringer at the top of
(35:49):
that roof, looking down about thirty five feet because it's
a two story house, and thinking, oh my god, it
wouldn't take but one slip for those guys to actually
drop thirty feet and hurt themselves really bad. But I
guarantee you that at some point they weren't meeting all
of the OSHA standards. They weren't carrying all of the
(36:12):
workmen's comp that they probably were supposed to carry. They
didn't do all of the things that were needed to
be done to do it legally and the right way,
and it probably saved me money. It probably did I
am probably a recipient of that. I have no idea,
but the jobs that Americans will do are there, we
(36:32):
would do them. There was a meatpacking I think it
was a meatpacking plant in Nebraska. Recently they got raided
by ice and they took out forty or fifty or
it was a lot of the workers at this plant
that had been there illegally. The next day the plant
hr office was full of people wanting those jobs, full
(36:54):
of people wanting the jobs, willing to take the jobs.
This is a problem his In nineteen eighty six, President
Reagan signed an amnesty bill, and there were times when
he said it was the worst decision he ever made,
because it was the one bill he really would want
to take back, because there was a there was a
bargain one time legalization. Now. It was like a two
(37:18):
point two million people got legalized in this one bill,
but it was it was supposed to be one time
legalization now. And then Parrot was strict employer enforcement later,
and so all the law or the lawmakers back then
promised that the illegal immigration would finally be solved once
and for all. So Congress did uphold one part of it.
(37:42):
They granted the amnesty to all of the illegal aliens
that were here at the time, but they never enforced
the laws to make sure that people that were working
here in the United States were doing it legally and
above the above board. And now we're back to the
(38:03):
same problem. And I don't know how it gets solved.
What I know is it needs to be resolved somehow,
and it cannot be at the expense of all of
the American workers that are out there that are willing
to do the jobs, want to do the jobs, willing
to do the jobs, but cannot compete in a market
where people are doing it under the table and not
(38:24):
paying all of the same taxes, and not paying all
the same insurances, and not abiding by all of the
same regulations, And so the employers don't have It's an
economics matter. If other employers are doing it and I
don't do it, now I'm at a competitive disadvantage and
can't sell my products, and I go out of business
if I do do it. I'm now driving wages down,
(38:45):
which I don't necessarily want to do by hiring illegal
workers to do things and doing it the wrong way.
This is an enforcement issue as much as anything. All
of these trucking companies out there that are hiring illegal
aliens that don't have the ability to read or write
in English or communicate in English and are trying to
(39:07):
haul eighty thousand pound rigs up and down the highways.
That's not the person who's trying to get the job.
They're truly just trying to feed their families. I don't
blame them, I understand it, but there has to be
some sort of enforcement mechanism that takes to task the
actual employers that are hiring them when they shouldn't be
to begin with. There are ways to do it and
(39:30):
get green cards and work permits and other ways to
do it that will work. And we have a lot
of open jobs in the United States right now. I
can tell you that right now, in the automobile business,
for instance, we probably are I'm going to guess three
hundred thousand to four hundred thousand technicians shy of where
(39:52):
we need to be right now in the marketplace, which
is why it's so difficult to get your car fixed,
it's so difficult to get anything done in any timeframe
that's normal and reasonable. It's we don't have the employers
or the employees to be able to do the jobs.
And there are technical jobs that require some sort of
training and expertise to be able to rebuild an engine
or a transmission. I don't know what the answer is,
(40:15):
but we're gonna have to find something, because it's not
true that Americans won't do those jobs. It is true
that Americans have to do those jobs based on being
on the books. And if they're on the books, they
have to abide by all the taxes and the other
regulations that go along with it, which makes it difficult
for the employers to hire the actual legal workers. All Right,
(40:43):
So the last thing I wanted to talk about was
I read an article the other day and I was
thinking about it, and it struck me because I am
I'm proud to live in the United States of America.
I am proud. We have our issues. I've talked about
it many many times. Look, we're not perfect. No country
is perfect. No, whether it's capitalism or socialism or Marxism,
(41:08):
none of those are perfect, but nothing. There's problems with everything.
There is no utopia. Man has free will and they're
going to screw it up many, many times. But what
is it to be an American? Because I can tell you,
in the forties and fifties, to be an American was
a way of life. It was you were proud of
(41:29):
your country. You had fought against communism, you had stood
up for capitalism. At our unique freedoms that we all
want and should have if we were living in a
world that believed in everything that we believe in. There's
a reason. The freedoms that we now enjoy are the
(41:52):
main reason why our society has advanced to the point
that it has versus most of the other societies in
the country, the world. The freedoms we enjoy have given
us the opportunity to be uniquely American. But that word
is being split, it's being split in two, and it
(42:14):
no longer means the same thing to everybody. People now
are saying that if you can be American just by
having the same values, and while that may be partly true,
you can't assimilate into the American way of life if
you're not willing to do that. If you think that
(42:35):
just believing the way the left believes or the right
believes makes you an American. It does not. I don't
know how we get back. We've got to change the
meaning of the word first, because there are people out
there who saying this is what it means to be
an American versus this is what it means to be
an American. I take the traditional definition of being an American,
(42:57):
of patriotism and history and the law abiding and traditions
and all of those things. That's the way I feel
about the word. But there are a lot of people
out there now that feel like that's not what the
word means. It just means simply to live in America,
(43:18):
and that you can be an American even if you
are Somali and living in Minnesota. You're now an American
because you live on the land that is occupied by
the United States of America. That's not what it is.
And we've got to get back to actually the meaning
of the word that defines us as a country and
(43:40):
as a sovereign nation. I hope we do it quick,
because if not, I don't know where we end up.
Who knows. Good news. I'm old. I want to deal
with it. All right. This is Bonos Cars Ranch about
a lot of other stuff, brought to by Chevrolet Buick
GMC of Murphysborough. I hope you guys come on back
next week. Have a great weekend. Everybody. M
