seven seven four twenty four twenty four, it's West Michigan
Live with Justin Barklay on Wood Radio.
Speaker 2 (00:22):
If I'm here and this right, We've got big breaking
news this morning.
Speaker 3 (00:30):
They think they might have got up or her.
Speaker 1 (00:34):
Well.
Speaker 3 (00:35):
We're not really sure who it is yet, but it's
big news. Police arresting a suspect in the.
Speaker 2 (00:43):
DC pipe bomb case after five years of that investigation.
Details will tell you what we have so far coming
up and much more this morning.
Speaker 3 (00:58):
They're by use and traffic.
Speaker 1 (01:01):
I won't make your stories of the day. We were
talking about what matters most in West Michigan and beyond.
This is the Big Three, yep, I don't see speak free.
Speaker 2 (01:13):
Yes, the stories amount emos you're gonna be talking about
to this around the water core, the dinner table, no
matter where you are. Good friends at Hardin Home Mortgage
make it happen each and every day.
Speaker 3 (01:22):
We thank them for.
Speaker 2 (01:23):
Their contributions and their support and by the way, they're
the same folks Dave got Away and the team that
have helped me and several others that listened to the
show save thousands each and every time we've done a
home equity line of credit, we've done the mortgage, we've
done the refinance, and we couldn't be happier.
Speaker 3 (01:41):
They're faster, better than the big bangs.
Speaker 2 (01:42):
Reach out to day with the team today at hhmlnding
dot com.
Speaker 3 (01:46):
Yeah, the stories that you will not hear anywhere.
Speaker 2 (01:49):
Else at least, this is just scratching the surface, this
pipe bomb case arrest. You know, a little months ago,
there was this big breaking story that they thought they
may have had the person or identified that individual, and
then we learned that maybe that wasn't the case, and
there was some backtracking that was happening. I'll talk a
(02:13):
little bit more about that in moments. So what we
know so far is that a suspect allegedly who planted
the pipe bomb, locks from the Capital.
Speaker 3 (02:22):
That's at the.
Speaker 2 (02:25):
I think it's called the Capitol Club the Congression. It's
where the Republicans go to have lunch and meet with
folks who may talk lobbying, et cetera. That you can't
really do that inside the offices, so fundraising things of
that nature because.
Speaker 3 (02:40):
Of the rules of the game.
Speaker 2 (02:41):
There that club, which by the way, side note, I've
been to has and they're most renowned for amazing chocolate
chip cookies. Their cookies are just the cookie game, isn't
it's I'm telling the swamp is going to rope you
in somewhere or the other. They've got some way to
get you anyway. That's where that thing was placed. That
(03:04):
person now in federal custody after five years, the FBI
arresting the suspect.
Speaker 3 (03:09):
Here's what we know.
Speaker 2 (03:11):
A man living in Virginia early this morning, according to
the sources. We have dig into that coming up in
just a moment again, that January sixth pipe bomb suspect in.
Speaker 3 (03:25):
Custody this morning. It's another big story.
Speaker 2 (03:30):
By the way, Trump gathering auto industry leaders yesterday to
roll out major changes that hit one thing.
Speaker 3 (03:35):
You actually care about what you pay.
Speaker 2 (03:39):
Oh yeah, and that little thing that's so annoying on
your car that turns the engine off here and there.
Speaker 3 (03:45):
You're getting rid of that. Now.
Speaker 2 (03:47):
I know that some are going to be very very
upset about some of this.
Speaker 3 (03:55):
You know for the most part who you are. If
you're one of those folks. You Trump in the oval along.
Speaker 2 (04:02):
With the CEOs of these companies and more, talking about
that big move yesterday coming up and just moment hanging
there for that number you two billion dollars a year
in food steps fraud. They've discovered the story you're gonna
want to hear coming out.
Speaker 3 (04:22):
But first Jack Smith.
Speaker 2 (04:24):
Jack Smith is gonna have to testify folks.
Speaker 3 (04:29):
Speaking of the fine Out era.
Speaker 2 (04:33):
Jim Jordan's office, issuing that subpoena ordering him to sit
down for a deposition, Trump says he wants it public.
Speaker 3 (04:41):
He wants him to have to sit and squirm. So
more on that.
Speaker 2 (04:46):
Here's what we have from Fox News right now reporting
on this pipe bomb story this morning. Take a listen in.
We'll find out hang Out. I think we're gonna have
to take that feed later. I'll tell you what we
have based on reporting that we're seeing online this morning.
So here's what they've got. Just so you know, it's
a male, So that would be different than the person
that we were told it was earlier. The initial person
(05:14):
that reports had said possibly was involved with this was
a female, and that person was like a supposedly a
former Capitol police officer.
Speaker 3 (05:27):
That's who we were told.
Speaker 2 (05:32):
I don't know, I don't know how close to that
situation the scenario was. I honestly don't know if they
were giving that information out to throw this other person
for a loop. I think that would be a little
bit more hard to actually believe. But the suspect in
(05:54):
custody now is a male from Virginia authorities discovering the
two pipe bye near the Republican and Democrat National Committee's headquarters.
And that's that's just not that's just not accurate. The
Democrat I think headquarters was, but the Republicans it was,
it was at a different place. You've seen the video footage,
the Gramy footage. You've seen the suspect wearing a gray hoodie.
(06:17):
They they describe as the supporting Nike Airmac speed Surf
speed Turf sneakers, a face mask, glasses and gloves. But
the person's identity has long been unknown. And today maybe
we'll get a little bit more information in a some
sort of a headline news drop on that, and a
(06:39):
little bit later on we'll try to make sure that
you are up to speed on that gathering the latest
on this story. Okay, what else do we have for you?
Oh yeah, I wanted to bring you inside yesterday. This
is this is what happened inside the Oval Office as
those big announcements were made. President Trump rolling back those
(07:01):
Biden era sort of Lackey Green new scam rules that
made your car costs more.
Speaker 4 (07:06):
Today, my administration has taken a short action to lower
costs for American consumers, protect American auto jobs, and make
buying your car much more affordable for countless American families
and also safer. We're officially terminating Joe Biden's ridiculously burden
some horrible actually cafe standards that imposed expensive restrictions and
(07:29):
all sorts of problems, gave all sorts of problems to automakers.
And we're not only talking about here, we're talking about
outside of our country. Because nobody could do it, nobody
wanted to do it, and it was ridiculous, very expensive.
It put tremendous upward pressure on car prices. Combined with
the insane electric vehicle mandate, Biden's burdened some regulations helped
(07:53):
cause the price of cars to soar more than twenty
five percent, and in one case, they went up eighteen
percent in one year. Today we're taking one more step
to kill the green new scam. It's part of the
greatest scam probably well other than Russia, Russia, Russia and
a few others, I could name the greatest scam in
American history, the green new scam. And it's a question
(08:15):
end the gasoline powered car. This is what they wanted
to do, even though we have more gasoline than any
other country by far, and people want the gasoline car.
They want everything, they want electric, they want any they
want a half, lots of alternatives, but they do want
the gasoline car. Right now, it's leading away by a lot.
Speaker 3 (08:34):
By the way, point here is let the market decide.
Speaker 2 (08:38):
And obviously I think you've seen some of that, and
as these subsidies are going away, you're going to see
even more of it. Oh, Grut is not happy this morning.
She just not gotta be not gonna be happy. But
isn't she on the protesting other things? Isn't she onto
the protesting of a Palestine and some other It's just
(09:00):
all over the road now or in this case, I guess.
Speaker 3 (09:02):
She was on the boat added there. Yeah, anyway, Ford
CEO saying big.
Speaker 5 (09:10):
Mode today is a victory common sense and affordability. We're
very proud of Ford to be the number one auto
producer in our country. Eight five eighty percent of the
vehicles we sell here we make in our country, and
we never left unlike many of our competitors. We're the
number one exporter, and we have the most factory auto
(09:30):
factory workers. And this cafe standard that is aligned with
customer demand is the right move for a lot of reasons.
We were number two last year.
Speaker 6 (09:42):
In ev sales, we were number three in hybrid, and
we're the leading brand for combustion. We believe that people
should be able to make a choice, as you said,
mister President, and we will invest more in affordable vehicles.
This allows us to invest in affordable vehicle made in
the US, which we will take the lead on and
(10:03):
will allow us to make the vehicles more affordable.
Speaker 5 (10:06):
So thank you for making this step for all of you.
Speaker 3 (10:09):
Today is a victory company. That's a big one. Uh.
Speaker 2 (10:12):
And of course again it's gonna it's gonna impact you.
It'll take a little time to trickle in. But uh,
a lot of this stuff, I mean, the government gets
involved in these things. You just know that's where you
end up paying more money because they get involved. But
we now know, you know. In fact, Bill Gates has
even admitted he thinks this whole climate thing's a scam. He's, yeah,
(10:34):
I don't believe it, don't believe it's gonna have the impact.
Speaker 3 (10:37):
That said, Well, I tell you why we.
Speaker 2 (10:38):
Knew it was a scam from the beginning because the banks,
the banks kept giving people money to buy homes, the
insurance companies kept ensuring these same homes on on uh
on ocean front properties in Florida coastline, et cetera. Especially, Hey,
Obama's a million dollar mansion where he lives on the
(11:03):
Martha's seniord. Yeah, that's that's the same place where they
immediately got rid of the illegals there. Deportations fine in
Martha's Vineyard. When it comes to Chicago on the main streets,
kind no, no, no, can't do it there. That's inhumane.
Here's the president on Biden policy.
Speaker 4 (11:22):
Maybe cafe stands okay, as an example, who signed cafe?
If you ask Biden what's a cafe stand? He would
have absolutely no idea. You'd say, where is the cafe located?
The guy didn't know anything. Look, that just shows you
what a rigged election can be. But you understand what
I'm saying.
Speaker 3 (11:40):
Thank you, there he is. That's that's that's the latest. Okay,
we got more today.
Speaker 2 (11:46):
I got to get to the two billion dollars a
year in food stand trafficking fraud in the US. They've
uncovered a new report every year. They know that people
are actually selling their their food stamps and uh, we've
seen that go along with the details of the what
I told you the other day, Michigan residents and others
in states that are blue because they failed to go
along with their transparency Trump administration. Once those reports who's
(12:09):
getting them, what they're getting, etc. So they can make
sure that people aren't like getting food stamps in two
different or three different or four different states, because that's
one of the scams that these folks can do too.
And then it also goes along with the with the
trafficking and all the corruption things that we've heard out
of many Somali up there in Minnesota, excuse me, Minneapolis,
(12:34):
all those stories recently.
Speaker 3 (12:36):
You know this stuff. I think it adds up to
a lot more than people realize.
Speaker 2 (12:41):
Two billion dollars a year at least, we've got that
story and more on the way again. Breaking news this
morning that they've arrested a suspect they believe involved with
those pipe bombs set at Republican Democrat headquarters. They've got
the details on that from January sixth. Will continue to
follow that if we get any info on who the
individual is. We know it's a man from Virginia. That's
(13:03):
about all we have for right now, but we'll continue
to keep you updated. And speaking of updates, there is
a little bit of good news. Yesterday we heard it
wasn't going to be until April thirtieth, and then eventually
we heard this morning what sometime the end of the
end of January, they hope to have that ramp from
(13:24):
ninety six to one thirty one back hopen that was
hit by the semi the other day. So a couple
of big stories will funnel those on the way. James
Dixon joins us about nine thirty five wide spread voter
frauded Michigan. He brings the receipts and we'll bring him
on to hit that coming up right here on West
Michigan Line. Our sister stations Star one oh five point

Speaker 7 (15:35):
Here are your headlines from the Midwesterner this Thursday, December fourth.
I'm Robin Hoffman. It's a Midwesterner dot News original story.
Secretary of State Democrat Jocelyn Benson wants to ban data
centers that use state water or increase energy costs. This
as her husband works to force one in Saline Township.
At the same time, fellow Democrat Michigan State Senator Sue
(15:57):
Shank urging lawmakers to oppose this plant because of how
much electricity the data center is going to need.
Speaker 8 (16:03):
This contract is much bigger than one district. It represents
one point four gigawatts of electricity.
Speaker 7 (16:10):
And President Trump unleashing on Minnesota Governor Democrat Tim Walls
as the Somali scandal in Minnesota unravels COVID money reportedly
funneled to terrorists in Somalia under his watch.
Speaker 4 (16:21):
Walts should be ashamed. That beautiful land, that beautiful state.
It's a hellhole right now. And the Somalians should be
out of here. They've destroyed our country.
Speaker 7 (16:31):
For these stories and more, visit the Midwesterner at the
Midwesterner dot news.
Speaker 2 (16:38):
Widespread Michigan voter Froddy said, and his report actually has
gone wide all across the country.
Speaker 3 (16:44):
Folks are starting to pay attention to.
Speaker 2 (16:45):
James Dixon has the latest, and it's about Benson, who
is really under the spotlight lately. Secretary of State Joscelyn
Benson known for breaking the law.
Speaker 3 (16:56):
Of course, breaking the law, breaking the law.
Speaker 2 (16:58):
That's her theme song, Not to play that when we
come back. Been told a judge several times that she's
violated the look she didn't care.
Speaker 3 (17:08):
She didn't care.
Speaker 2 (17:09):
You remember back in twenty twenty when she told those
local clerks, oh, you don't have to inspect. We've got
record numbers coming in for mail Inville. You don't expect
the signatures to make sure that they're you know, they're legit.
That's when you'd want to do it right when we
have more coming in than ever before. Now she said, no, no, no,
don't really there's no need for all of that. Well,
(17:31):
can you think about all the fraud we see everywhere
else to imagine that it's not happening in that process
as well?
Speaker 3 (17:38):
And it's just absolutely crazy.
Speaker 2 (17:40):
Speaking of fraud, I told you earlier two billion, two
billion a year in food stamp trafficking. This is trafficking
in the United States, food stamp trafficking Michigan News source
with the report there, and I'm telling you more and
more people are waking up to this part of the
shutdown and the issues that I think Democrats really are
(18:03):
struggling with. And people are waking up and they're gonna
find out about this and they they're gonna be rightfully,
so very upset about it. Rightfully. So here's the report
of a man upset speaking of what's in LA that
he's gonna lose.
Speaker 9 (18:17):
So use those EBT cards to go out and buy
their groceries. But starting today December first, those new changes,
those new requirements. I mean, you're going to look for work.
You've got to go out and volunteer certain hours, number
of hours.
Speaker 3 (18:28):
He's mad about that. He's going to have to go out.
Speaker 9 (18:30):
You want to keep the benefits going. Otherwise those benefits
could be cut sharply. Maybe only three months worth of
benefits over a three year period.
Speaker 3 (18:38):
That's a big drop off. Isn't that common sense?
Speaker 9 (18:40):
You bet, big changes like that bringing some big time reaction.
Speaker 3 (18:44):
Listen to some of this.
Speaker 7 (18:46):
I don't think it's.
Speaker 3 (18:47):
Fair that he do that.
Speaker 2 (18:48):
But look at the size of this one. Excuse me.
I don't mean the comment on the way people look,
but excuse me.
Speaker 3 (18:56):
She's bigger than me.
Speaker 9 (18:57):
And you were saying you think it's going to hurt
a lot of people.
Speaker 3 (18:59):
Oh yeah, definitely, definitely, it's gonna hurt a lot of people.
Speaker 2 (19:03):
Uh, forgetto's empic just got the stamps off of this.
I mean seriously, because you never know, you know what,
especially now that we are the holidays and everybody wants
to have a good thing there and everything.
Speaker 3 (19:17):
He's cutting it off. If you don't go work in
or look for work, if you don't give it to them,
it's going to be really hard.
Speaker 10 (19:24):
It's very sudden, and it will affect people negatively really quickly.
Speaker 3 (19:27):
So and a lot of people don't have the resources
to go look for a job obtain these new skills.
Speaker 10 (19:33):
So if it's possible to like, you know, keep it
or find out other way to always help these people,
that would be very vital.
Speaker 2 (19:40):
I gotta tell you this, this, this whole thing. I
got more of that video. We'll play it for you
coming up. James Dixon joins us too on the flip side.
Plus we catch you up with the latest stuff bottom
the hour news back after this on what radio Hang on.
Speaker 11 (19:58):
We know that the FATS have your socialecurity numbers. You're
the ones who issue social security numbers, looking good back
at you. We know that Joscelyn Benson, our Secretary of State,
has shared Michigan voter data with nonprofits like Eric and
Rock the Vote Hill. Why every Democrat operative in America
has access to our voter data if they want it.
(20:19):
So what does Jocelyn Benson fear in sharing our voter
roles with the FEDS? For official argument fails just on
its face. So what's the thing behind the thing? Ruth
Johnson beat Joscelyn Benson on the twenty ten race for
Secretary of State, now with State Senator Johnson, has sounded
the alarm about election in security in Michigan. Johnson points
to the Help America vote verification system. Last year, one
(20:42):
hundred thousand people registered to vote in Michigan. Thirty six
percent of them, thirty six thousand souls, had invalid four
digit social security numbers, and they were allowed to register anyway.
Michigan has five hundred thousand more voters registered than we
have voting age adults. How many of those are non
citizens who do not have social Security numbers? Jocelyn Benson
(21:05):
isn't protecting your social Security number, She's protecting herself after
registering voters who don't have one. That's what the FEDS
would find if Benson sherifed Michigan's voter rolls, and that
transparency is what Benson fears most.
Speaker 2 (21:19):
By the way, fantastic report, James Dixon. It's been picked
up in shared all across the country right now, Michigan enjoyer,
James Dixon. Always a pleasure. Thank you for taking the
time to be.
Speaker 3 (21:31):
Here with us today.
Speaker 12 (21:32):
Hey, good morning, justin great to hear your voice.
Speaker 2 (21:35):
You know, it's this little game, this little shell game
they've been running, is finally getting the attention it deserves
and needed here. And it's funny because it's in every
single ass But we were just talking about food stamps
earlier in SNAP and the billions that they're finding and
trafficking and fraud every year in that programming, when you
(21:58):
know it's the blue states that don't want to provide
that data again to the FEDS. They're always hiding something.
But it's not just the food stamps. This impacts You're
talking about elections everything.
Speaker 12 (22:12):
That's exactly it, because the election socide. Who represents us
in Lansing, in Washington, even the president of the United States,
and so who is elected matters, which means that who
gets to vote matters, And Michigan has two is in
our constitution meant to protect us. One you have to
(22:34):
be a resident of Michigan for thirty days to vote,
so not just going to college here, but an actual
resident of the state for thirty days until you have
to be a US citizen. And so in the case
of the Chinese voter last year, Ho Ching Gao and
Ann Arbor, he had neither one of those things. And
how could you verify whether someone has met either of
(22:55):
those requirements if they're registering and voting on the very
same day. Our elections have been made insecure, because that
was the point of it.
Speaker 2 (23:07):
Yes, and boy, you know, the used to be able
to say, well, this never happens, This just never happened.
This is just some sort of conspiracy theory. But now
we know that theory is real. In fact, it happened
on Benson's watch. Doesn't take a tenfoil hat to see
(23:28):
the truth.
Speaker 12 (23:30):
Yeah, I'm actually wearing my tinfoil hat right now, and
help me get better small receptions. Fun fact, so for years,
including last year, right before the Chinese voter scandal was unearthed,
Jocelyn Benson would cite this, this study from the Brennan Center,
which by the way, is one of her political allies. Yeah,
the Brennan Center. They studied the twenty sixteen elections and
(23:53):
they found that there was only thirty illegal votes out
of the twenty four million they studied. Right, And so
for years she beats Republicans, anyone with the question, anyone
with a doubt or skepticism, she beats you over the head.
With there's only thirty. There's only thirty, I mean, and
that was supposed to be nationwide representative, right, So thirty
(24:14):
and then in twenty sixteen there was sixty or twenty
twenty four, there was sixteen illegals who voted in Michigan
that we know of, So we have more than half
the national number and a single election cycle in a
single state. That obviously means that the thirty number was
(24:35):
faking made up. It was not an exhaustive study. And
by the way, when we say that there were sixteen
illegal voters last year in Michigan, that's of what we know.
Joscelyn Benson did not do an exhaustive review. She only
did a partial review. And so which is to say,
none of us, not me, not you, not Jocelyn Benson,
(24:57):
not hard Meat Dillon, the assistant Attorney General. No, nobody
can know even the extent potential of election fraud or
how many non citizens are on our voter roles. We
don't know because nobody wants to know.
Speaker 2 (25:11):
Yeah, hey, we'll think about how this ties into what
we're hearing right now.
Speaker 3 (25:16):
James Dixon on the.
Speaker 2 (25:17):
Line with us right now, down I seventy five over
on AX with the Michigan Enjoyer in this report, think
about really how this ties into what we're seeing happening
in many Somalia, I mean Minneapolis, in Minnesota. I mean,
it's it's that you got the police chief over there
speaking Somalion. It's it's insane. And of course why is
(25:39):
he doing it? Because they vote, and these people are voting,
and now some of them are allowed to because they're
legally you know, they're here and whatnot. But however, can
you imagine how many folks are cooked on those books
We've seen that happen in Michigan, ham Trammick and some
of these other places.
Speaker 12 (26:00):
The thing we keep being told never happens, He's happening.
We keep being told that our elections are safe and effective.
Where have I heard that one before? And then as
the facts get out, it finds out, Oh, people are
stuffing ballot boxes, people are doing all kinds of machinations.
And so what I want everyone to understand is that
(26:20):
when somebody says our elections are safe and effective, or
that an experimental job is safe and effective, when you
hear a news reporter say that, I want you to
ask yourself, how do they know. How do they know?
Speaker 1 (26:34):
Right?
Speaker 12 (26:35):
I often post on X this twenty twenty one story
from the Detroit News. This guy, Craig Wauker, Jill Biden,
the first lady at the time, came to town and
she said that the JAB was safe and effective, and
so Mauger printed that the JAB was safe and effective.
Do you think this guy sitting around pouring over vaccine
safety data or is he simply repeating whatever he's told.
Speaker 2 (27:01):
Yeah, they're not. They're not reporters. They're repeaters. And what
most of them do. People don't know this because they
don't see behind the scenes with the sausages made, they're
actually reprinting or repeating what's given to them, handed to
them in press releases. They're written by these PR firms
that get bookou bucks to do it. By the way,
(27:22):
here's the other thing that people don't know about this,
and this is important.
Speaker 3 (27:26):
It's a revolving door. They're in on the scam.
Speaker 2 (27:29):
They want to repeat what they're fed because then if
they're good little doobies, what they can go do later
is go work for those PR firms and maybe even
get a cushy government job down the road. That's why
they never pushed back, because that's always been the plan
from the beginning.
Speaker 3 (27:46):
And guess what they're in on it.
Speaker 2 (27:48):
They ideologically aligned with these people who are pushing this
nonsense on you.
Speaker 12 (27:53):
They absolutely do. I mean, even even the stories that
they do break, you know, it'll often be about some
one who's a wounded lion, like Gretchen Whitmurmys. She she's
about a year from eating the early Bird specials. She's
halfway a retiree at this point, so there's no downside
in attacking her. She has no she's not gonna rise
above where she is. And so but then when they
(28:16):
do a story like this Great Seal, Oh my god,
she used the Great Seal on a fundraiser, they'll do
a story about something that happened years ago. And so
even when they do apply what looks to the naked
eye to be scrutiny.
Speaker 3 (28:29):
Oh yeah, we cover them too.
Speaker 12 (28:31):
Yes, exactly it. All those stories are written just so
they can say we cover them too. But if you
look at what's covered and how much of it is historical,
and how very little of it is current day, how
very little of it gets to the meat of how
our state is run, you will see that they are
in on it. And so any report you read out
(28:52):
of a capital city that is sock puppet theater because
everyone's there depends on the ecosystem. That's why you need
Michigan Enjoyer, the Justin Barclays, the Dave Bondi. We're outside
the ecosystem. We don't benefit from it. There's no symbiosis.
So we're able to throw rocks at the castle because
(29:12):
we don't want there to be a castle.
Speaker 2 (29:16):
Yeah, well said James Dixon down I seventy five over
on the X and of course in Michigan Enjoyer.
Speaker 3 (29:24):
So this is important to save our state.
Speaker 2 (29:29):
You know, twenty twenty four is such a big year
for nationally for the country with the election, twenty six
I think is going to be a very similar year
for Michigan. We've got an opportunity, but we're on the
precipice here if we don't get these things right. We've
seen folks some that have called for involvement here in
the fence to get involved in this and oversee this election,
(29:51):
we've seen some lawsuits flying. We're probably going to see
more here in Michigan. How important is the election and
the and the push to make.
Speaker 12 (30:00):
Sure it's accurate, you know, justin Overett Enjoyer. My slogan
is make news local again. And that's what we try
to do, is just give you what matters to the
ten million people who live here, not necessarily depend on
the national narratives. In twenty twenty six, we need to
make politics local again. And so look, Donald Trump is
(30:22):
not walking through that door. His name will never appear
on another ballot, not in twenty twenty six, not in
twenty twenty eight. So what we have the chance to
do is make our politics local because regardless of what's
happening in Washington, Democrats run Michigan, and so we have
a chance to make Chase a case for change. But
(30:43):
we have a chance to talk about the conditions that
we live under, what's happened to our schools, how public
health and public trust has been manipulated, how the budget
has exploded, and how very little benefit it is provided
to the people of Michigan. There is a Michigan specific
store to tell and if we tell it, people will
understand the need for change. We cannot make this about
(31:06):
Donald Trump. It has to be about us. We have
to vote ourselves out of this problem.
Speaker 2 (31:13):
Yeah, well, said James Dixon. Always a pleasure over on X.
Of course the folks here at Michigan and join anything
you're working on that we should stay tuned to look
forward to here in the coming days.
Speaker 12 (31:25):
Yeah, I am digging into everybody's favorite ginger, Mallory McMorrow,
getting to know her origin story and Manna, it's gonna
be a fun one. It's just funny though. Right now
McMorrow the frontrunner to be the Democrat Senate nominee from
New Jersey, Jocelyn Benson the front runner to be the
governor nominee from Pittsburgh. It's an all carpetbagger ticket that
(31:48):
they're working on. So we're gonna need to make politics
local again and get these carpetbaggers sit back home.
Speaker 2 (31:53):
What about that former the ambassador of Ukraine that they
brought in to try and tick out Tom Barrett.
Speaker 12 (32:00):
Every Democrat in Michigan. I mean I heard they were
trying to exhume the body of Steven C. Mason he
would run against next year.
Speaker 2 (32:09):
Fantastic, Always a pleasure, my friend, Thank you so much.
James Dixon down I seventy five over on X, And
of course in Michigan, enjoyer.
Speaker 3 (32:18):
Thank you, my friend, Thank you, sir, blessed back with
more folks.

Speaker 2 (35:04):
In fact, they say, this individual the breaking news on
the J six pipe bomber arrest man from Virginia will
be in court today.
Speaker 10 (35:12):
Will know the identity A big deal Bill and Dana.
It happened January fifth, twenty twenty one. A mysterious person
covered from head to toe place pipe bombs outside both
the Democratic National Committee and Republican National Committee here in
our nation's capital. We don't know the suspect's name or
anything about this person other than the fact this is
a male that was living in northern Virginia, arrested at
(35:35):
some point within the last ninety minutes. Now in federal custody.
I'm told we'll know more as the day moves on,
and as soon as we have the information, of course,
we will break in with that. But just this past October,
a couple of months ago, the FBI put out this
enhanced video in pictures of the mass suspect planning pipe
bombs near a bench outside the DNC in Washington on
January fifth, twenty twenty one, the night before the attack
(35:58):
on the US Capitol. The suspect then placed the same
type of bomb outside the RNC minutes later. The suspect,
as I said, were a face mask, hooded, sweatshirt, glasses, gloves,
but using FBI technology, agents told the public the suspect
they believe is around five foot seven inches. We'll see
bill if that rings true once we get an identity
later today, agents say the two bombs were placed between
(36:21):
seven thirty and eight thirty at night. The bombs did
not detonate, but this is important. They were viable. They
could have hurt people, they could have killed people. Those
bombs were discovered the next day. Over the past four years,
agents visited twelve hundred homes and businesses, conducted more than
one thousand interviews, reviewed approximately thirty nine thousand video files,
(36:41):
went through six hundred tips. It's notable the reward bill
and data was half a million dollars five hundred thousand dollars.
Speaker 2 (36:50):
This is a story that is going to have You're
gonna send some shock lives depending on who this guy is.

Reach out to day with the team today at hhmlnding
dot com.
Speaker 3 (01:46):
Yeah, the stories that you will not hear anywhere.
Speaker 2 (01:49):
Else at least, this is just scratching the surface, this
pipe bomb case arrest. You know, a little months ago,
there was this big breaking story that they thought they
may have had the person or identified that individual, and
then we learned that maybe that wasn't the case, and
there was some backtracking that was happening. I'll talk a
(02:13):
little bit more about that in moments. So what we
know so far is that a suspect allegedly who planted
the pipe bomb, locks from the Capital.
Speaker 3 (02:22):
That's at the.
Speaker 2 (02:25):
I think it's called the Capitol Club the Congression. It's
where the Republicans go to have lunch and meet with
folks who may talk lobbying, et cetera. That you can't
really do that inside the offices, so fundraising things of
that nature because.
Speaker 3 (02:40):
Of the rules of the game.
Speaker 2 (02:41):
There that club, which by the way, side note, I've
been to has and they're most renowned for amazing chocolate
chip cookies. Their cookies are just the cookie game, isn't
it's I'm telling the swamp is going to rope you
in somewhere or the other. They've got some way to
get you anyway. That's where that thing was placed. That
(03:04):
person now in federal custody after five years, the FBI
arresting the suspect.
Speaker 3 (03:09):
Here's what we know.
Speaker 2 (03:11):
A man living in Virginia early this morning, according to
the sources. We have dig into that coming up in
just a moment again, that January sixth pipe bomb suspect in.
Speaker 3 (03:25):
Custody this morning. It's another big story.
Speaker 2 (03:30):
By the way, Trump gathering auto industry leaders yesterday to
roll out major changes that hit one thing.
Speaker 3 (03:35):
You actually care about what you pay.
Speaker 2 (03:39):
Oh yeah, and that little thing that's so annoying on
your car that turns the engine off here and there.
Speaker 3 (03:45):
You're getting rid of that. Now.
Speaker 2 (03:47):
I know that some are going to be very very
upset about some of this.
Speaker 3 (03:55):
You know for the most part who you are. If
you're one of those folks. You Trump in the oval along.
Speaker 2 (04:02):
With the CEOs of these companies and more, talking about
that big move yesterday coming up and just moment hanging
there for that number you two billion dollars a year
in food steps fraud. They've discovered the story you're gonna
want to hear coming out.
Speaker 3 (04:22):
But first Jack Smith.
Speaker 2 (04:24):
Jack Smith is gonna have to testify folks.
Speaker 3 (04:29):
Speaking of the fine Out era.
Speaker 2 (04:33):
Jim Jordan's office, issuing that subpoena ordering him to sit
down for a deposition, Trump says he wants it public.
Speaker 3 (04:41):
He wants him to have to sit and squirm. So
more on that.
Speaker 2 (04:46):
Here's what we have from Fox News right now reporting
on this pipe bomb story this morning. Take a listen in.
We'll find out hang Out. I think we're gonna have
to take that feed later. I'll tell you what we
have based on reporting that we're seeing online this morning.
So here's what they've got. Just so you know, it's
a male, So that would be different than the person
that we were told it was earlier. The initial person
(05:14):
that reports had said possibly was involved with this was
a female, and that person was like a supposedly a
former Capitol police officer.
Speaker 3 (05:27):
That's who we were told.
Speaker 2 (05:32):
I don't know, I don't know how close to that
situation the scenario was. I honestly don't know if they
were giving that information out to throw this other person
for a loop. I think that would be a little
bit more hard to actually believe. But the suspect in
(05:54):
custody now is a male from Virginia authorities discovering the
two pipe bye near the Republican and Democrat National Committee's headquarters.
And that's that's just not that's just not accurate. The
Democrat I think headquarters was, but the Republicans it was,
it was at a different place. You've seen the video footage,
the Gramy footage. You've seen the suspect wearing a gray hoodie.
(06:17):
They they describe as the supporting Nike Airmac speed Surf
speed Turf sneakers, a face mask, glasses and gloves. But
the person's identity has long been unknown. And today maybe
we'll get a little bit more information in a some
sort of a headline news drop on that, and a
(06:39):
little bit later on we'll try to make sure that
you are up to speed on that gathering the latest
on this story. Okay, what else do we have for you?
Oh yeah, I wanted to bring you inside yesterday. This
is this is what happened inside the Oval Office as
those big announcements were made. President Trump rolling back those
(07:01):
Biden era sort of Lackey Green new scam rules that
made your car costs more.
Speaker 4 (07:06):
Today, my administration has taken a short action to lower
costs for American consumers, protect American auto jobs, and make
buying your car much more affordable for countless American families
and also safer. We're officially terminating Joe Biden's ridiculously burden
some horrible actually cafe standards that imposed expensive restrictions and
(07:29):
all sorts of problems, gave all sorts of problems to automakers.
And we're not only talking about here, we're talking about
outside of our country. Because nobody could do it, nobody
wanted to do it, and it was ridiculous, very expensive.
It put tremendous upward pressure on car prices. Combined with
the insane electric vehicle mandate, Biden's burdened some regulations helped
(07:53):
cause the price of cars to soar more than twenty
five percent, and in one case, they went up eighteen
percent in one year. Today we're taking one more step
to kill the green new scam. It's part of the
greatest scam probably well other than Russia, Russia, Russia and
a few others, I could name the greatest scam in
American history, the green new scam. And it's a question
(08:15):
end the gasoline powered car. This is what they wanted
to do, even though we have more gasoline than any
other country by far, and people want the gasoline car.
They want everything, they want electric, they want any they
want a half, lots of alternatives, but they do want
the gasoline car. Right now, it's leading away by a lot.
Speaker 3 (08:34):
By the way, point here is let the market decide.
Speaker 2 (08:38):
And obviously I think you've seen some of that, and
as these subsidies are going away, you're going to see
even more of it. Oh, Grut is not happy this morning.
She just not gotta be not gonna be happy. But
isn't she on the protesting other things? Isn't she onto
the protesting of a Palestine and some other It's just
(09:00):
all over the road now or in this case, I guess.
Speaker 3 (09:02):
She was on the boat added there. Yeah, anyway, Ford
CEO saying big.
Speaker 5 (09:10):
Mode today is a victory common sense and affordability. We're
very proud of Ford to be the number one auto
producer in our country. Eight five eighty percent of the
vehicles we sell here we make in our country, and
we never left unlike many of our competitors. We're the
number one exporter, and we have the most factory auto
(09:30):
factory workers. And this cafe standard that is aligned with
customer demand is the right move for a lot of reasons.
We were number two last year.
Speaker 6 (09:42):
In ev sales, we were number three in hybrid, and
we're the leading brand for combustion. We believe that people
should be able to make a choice, as you said,
mister President, and we will invest more in affordable vehicles.
This allows us to invest in affordable vehicle made in
the US, which we will take the lead on and
(10:03):
will allow us to make the vehicles more affordable.
Speaker 5 (10:06):
So thank you for making this step for all of you.
Speaker 3 (10:09):
Today is a victory company. That's a big one. Uh.
Speaker 2 (10:12):
And of course again it's gonna it's gonna impact you.
It'll take a little time to trickle in. But uh,
a lot of this stuff, I mean, the government gets
involved in these things. You just know that's where you
end up paying more money because they get involved. But
we now know, you know. In fact, Bill Gates has
even admitted he thinks this whole climate thing's a scam. He's, yeah,
(10:34):
I don't believe it, don't believe it's gonna have the impact.
Speaker 3 (10:37):
That said, Well, I tell you why we.
Speaker 2 (10:38):
Knew it was a scam from the beginning because the banks,
the banks kept giving people money to buy homes, the
insurance companies kept ensuring these same homes on on uh
on ocean front properties in Florida coastline, et cetera. Especially, Hey,
Obama's a million dollar mansion where he lives on the
(11:03):
Martha's seniord. Yeah, that's that's the same place where they
immediately got rid of the illegals there. Deportations fine in
Martha's Vineyard. When it comes to Chicago on the main streets,
kind no, no, no, can't do it there. That's inhumane.
Here's the president on Biden policy.
Speaker 4 (11:22):
Maybe cafe stands okay, as an example, who signed cafe?
If you ask Biden what's a cafe stand? He would
have absolutely no idea. You'd say, where is the cafe located?
The guy didn't know anything. Look, that just shows you
what a rigged election can be. But you understand what
I'm saying.
Speaker 3 (11:40):
Thank you, there he is. That's that's that's the latest. Okay,
we got more today.
Speaker 2 (11:46):
I got to get to the two billion dollars a
year in food stand trafficking fraud in the US. They've
uncovered a new report every year. They know that people
are actually selling their their food stamps and uh, we've
seen that go along with the details of the what
I told you the other day, Michigan residents and others
in states that are blue because they failed to go
along with their transparency Trump administration. Once those reports who's
(12:09):
getting them, what they're getting, etc. So they can make
sure that people aren't like getting food stamps in two
different or three different or four different states, because that's
one of the scams that these folks can do too.
And then it also goes along with the with the
trafficking and all the corruption things that we've heard out
of many Somali up there in Minnesota, excuse me, Minneapolis,
(12:34):
all those stories recently.
Speaker 3 (12:36):
You know this stuff. I think it adds up to
a lot more than people realize.
Speaker 2 (12:41):
Two billion dollars a year at least, we've got that
story and more on the way again. Breaking news this
morning that they've arrested a suspect they believe involved with
those pipe bombs set at Republican Democrat headquarters. They've got
the details on that from January sixth. Will continue to
follow that if we get any info on who the
individual is. We know it's a man from Virginia. That's
(13:03):
about all we have for right now, but we'll continue
to keep you updated. And speaking of updates, there is
a little bit of good news. Yesterday we heard it
wasn't going to be until April thirtieth, and then eventually
we heard this morning what sometime the end of the
end of January, they hope to have that ramp from
(13:24):
ninety six to one thirty one back hopen that was
hit by the semi the other day. So a couple
of big stories will funnel those on the way. James

Benson known for breaking the law.
Speaker 3 (16:56):
Of course, breaking the law, breaking the law.
Speaker 2 (16:58):
That's her theme song, Not to play that when we
come back. Been told a judge several times that she's
violated the look she didn't care.
Speaker 3 (17:08):
She didn't care.
Speaker 2 (17:09):
You remember back in twenty twenty when she told those
local clerks, oh, you don't have to inspect. We've got
record numbers coming in for mail Inville. You don't expect
the signatures to make sure that they're you know, they're legit.
That's when you'd want to do it right when we
have more coming in than ever before. Now she said, no, no, no,
don't really there's no need for all of that. Well,
(17:31):
can you think about all the fraud we see everywhere
else to imagine that it's not happening in that process
as well?
Speaker 3 (17:38):
And it's just absolutely crazy.
Speaker 2 (17:40):
Speaking of fraud, I told you earlier two billion, two
billion a year in food stamp trafficking. This is trafficking
in the United States, food stamp trafficking Michigan News source
with the report there, and I'm telling you more and
more people are waking up to this part of the
shutdown and the issues that I think Democrats really are
(18:03):
struggling with. And people are waking up and they're gonna
find out about this and they they're gonna be rightfully,
so very upset about it. Rightfully. So here's the report
of a man upset speaking of what's in LA that
he's gonna lose.
Speaker 9 (18:17):
So use those EBT cards to go out and buy
their groceries. But starting today December first, those new changes,
those new requirements. I mean, you're going to look for work.
You've got to go out and volunteer certain hours, number
of hours.
Speaker 3 (18:28):
He's mad about that. He's going to have to go out.
Speaker 9 (18:30):
You want to keep the benefits going. Otherwise those benefits
could be cut sharply. Maybe only three months worth of
benefits over a three year period.
Speaker 3 (18:38):
That's a big drop off. Isn't that common sense?
Speaker 9 (18:40):
You bet, big changes like that bringing some big time reaction.
Speaker 3 (18:44):
Listen to some of this.
Speaker 7 (18:46):
I don't think it's.
Speaker 3 (18:47):
Fair that he do that.
Speaker 2 (18:48):
But look at the size of this one. Excuse me.
I don't mean the comment on the way people look,
but excuse me.
Speaker 3 (18:56):
She's bigger than me.
Speaker 9 (18:57):
And you were saying you think it's going to hurt
a lot of people.
Speaker 3 (18:59):
Oh yeah, definitely, definitely, it's gonna hurt a lot of people.
Speaker 2 (19:03):
Uh, forgetto's empic just got the stamps off of this.
I mean seriously, because you never know, you know what,
especially now that we are the holidays and everybody wants
to have a good thing there and everything.
Speaker 3 (19:17):
He's cutting it off. If you don't go work in
or look for work, if you don't give it to them,
it's going to be really hard.
Speaker 10 (19:24):
It's very sudden, and it will affect people negatively really quickly.
Speaker 3 (19:27):
So and a lot of people don't have the resources
to go look for a job obtain these new skills.
Speaker 10 (19:33):
So if it's possible to like, you know, keep it
or find out other way to always help these people,
that would be very vital.
Speaker 2 (19:40):
I gotta tell you this, this, this whole thing. I
got more of that video. We'll play it for you
coming up. James Dixon joins us too on the flip side.
Plus we catch you up with the latest stuff bottom
the hour news back after this on what radio Hang on.
Speaker 11 (19:58):
We know that the FATS have your socialecurity numbers. You're
the ones who issue social security numbers, looking good back
at you. We know that Joscelyn Benson, our Secretary of State,
has shared Michigan voter data with nonprofits like Eric and
Rock the Vote Hill. Why every Democrat operative in America
has access to our voter data if they want it.
(20:19):
So what does Jocelyn Benson fear in sharing our voter
roles with the FEDS? For official argument fails just on
its face. So what's the thing behind the thing? Ruth
Johnson beat Joscelyn Benson on the twenty ten race for
Secretary of State, now with State Senator Johnson, has sounded
the alarm about election in security in Michigan. Johnson points
to the Help America vote verification system. Last year, one
(20:42):
hundred thousand people registered to vote in Michigan. Thirty six
percent of them, thirty six thousand souls, had invalid four
digit social security numbers, and they were allowed to register anyway.
Michigan has five hundred thousand more voters registered than we
have voting age adults. How many of those are non
citizens who do not have social Security numbers? Jocelyn Benson
(21:05):
isn't protecting your social Security number, She's protecting herself after
registering voters who don't have one. That's what the FEDS
would find if Benson sherifed Michigan's voter rolls, and that
transparency is what Benson fears most.
Speaker 2 (21:19):
By the way, fantastic report, James Dixon. It's been picked
up in shared all across the country right now, Michigan enjoyer,
James Dixon. Always a pleasure. Thank you for taking the
time to be.
Speaker 3 (21:31):
Here with us today.
Speaker 12 (21:32):
Hey, good morning, justin great to hear your voice.
Speaker 2 (21:35):
You know, it's this little game, this little shell game
they've been running, is finally getting the attention it deserves
and needed here. And it's funny because it's in every
single ass But we were just talking about food stamps
earlier in SNAP and the billions that they're finding and
trafficking and fraud every year in that programming, when you
(21:58):
know it's the blue states that don't want to provide
that data again to the FEDS. They're always hiding something.
But it's not just the food stamps. This impacts You're
talking about elections everything.
Speaker 12 (22:12):
That's exactly it, because the election socide. Who represents us
in Lansing, in Washington, even the president of the United States,
and so who is elected matters, which means that who
gets to vote matters, And Michigan has two is in
our constitution meant to protect us. One you have to
(22:34):
be a resident of Michigan for thirty days to vote,
so not just going to college here, but an actual
resident of the state for thirty days until you have
to be a US citizen. And so in the case
of the Chinese voter last year, Ho Ching Gao and
Ann Arbor, he had neither one of those things. And
how could you verify whether someone has met either of
(22:55):
those requirements if they're registering and voting on the very
same day. Our elections have been made insecure, because that
was the point of it.
Speaker 2 (23:07):
Yes, and boy, you know, the used to be able
to say, well, this never happens, This just never happened.
This is just some sort of conspiracy theory. But now
we know that theory is real. In fact, it happened
on Benson's watch. Doesn't take a tenfoil hat to see
(23:28):
the truth.
Speaker 12 (23:30):
Yeah, I'm actually wearing my tinfoil hat right now, and
help me get better small receptions. Fun fact, so for years,
including last year, right before the Chinese voter scandal was unearthed,
Jocelyn Benson would cite this, this study from the Brennan Center,
which by the way, is one of her political allies. Yeah,
the Brennan Center. They studied the twenty sixteen elections and
(23:53):
they found that there was only thirty illegal votes out
of the twenty four million they studied. Right, And so
for years she beats Republicans, anyone with the question, anyone
with a doubt or skepticism, she beats you over the head.
With there's only thirty. There's only thirty, I mean, and
that was supposed to be nationwide representative, right, So thirty
(24:14):
and then in twenty sixteen there was sixty or twenty
twenty four, there was sixteen illegals who voted in Michigan
that we know of, So we have more than half
the national number and a single election cycle in a
single state. That obviously means that the thirty number was
(24:35):
faking made up. It was not an exhaustive study. And
by the way, when we say that there were sixteen
illegal voters last year in Michigan, that's of what we know.
Joscelyn Benson did not do an exhaustive review. She only
did a partial review. And so which is to say,
none of us, not me, not you, not Jocelyn Benson,
(24:57):
not hard Meat Dillon, the assistant Attorney General. No, nobody
can know even the extent potential of election fraud or
how many non citizens are on our voter roles. We
don't know because nobody wants to know.
Speaker 2 (25:11):
Yeah, hey, we'll think about how this ties into what
we're hearing right now.
Speaker 3 (25:16):
James Dixon on the.
Speaker 2 (25:17):
Line with us right now, down I seventy five over
on AX with the Michigan Enjoyer in this report, think
about really how this ties into what we're seeing happening
in many Somalia, I mean Minneapolis, in Minnesota. I mean,
it's it's that you got the police chief over there
speaking Somalion. It's it's insane. And of course why is
(25:39):
he doing it? Because they vote, and these people are voting,
and now some of them are allowed to because they're
legally you know, they're here and whatnot. But however, can
you imagine how many folks are cooked on those books
We've seen that happen in Michigan, ham Trammick and some
of these other places.
Speaker 12 (26:00):
The thing we keep being told never happens, He's happening.
We keep being told that our elections are safe and effective.
Where have I heard that one before? And then as
the facts get out, it finds out, Oh, people are
stuffing ballot boxes, people are doing all kinds of machinations.
And so what I want everyone to understand is that
(26:20):
when somebody says our elections are safe and effective, or
that an experimental job is safe and effective, when you
hear a news reporter say that, I want you to
ask yourself, how do they know. How do they know?
Speaker 1 (26:34):
Right?
Speaker 12 (26:35):
I often post on X this twenty twenty one story
from the Detroit News. This guy, Craig Wauker, Jill Biden,
the first lady at the time, came to town and
she said that the JAB was safe and effective, and
so Mauger printed that the JAB was safe and effective.
Do you think this guy sitting around pouring over vaccine
safety data or is he simply repeating whatever he's told.
Speaker 2 (27:01):
Yeah, they're not. They're not reporters. They're repeaters. And what
most of them do. People don't know this because they
don't see behind the scenes with the sausages made, they're
actually reprinting or repeating what's given to them, handed to
them in press releases. They're written by these PR firms
that get bookou bucks to do it. By the way,
(27:22):
here's the other thing that people don't know about this,
and this is important.
Speaker 3 (27:26):
It's a revolving door. They're in on the scam.
Speaker 2 (27:29):
They want to repeat what they're fed because then if
they're good little doobies, what they can go do later
is go work for those PR firms and maybe even
get a cushy government job down the road. That's why
they never pushed back, because that's always been the plan
from the beginning.
Speaker 3 (27:46):
And guess what they're in on it.
Speaker 2 (27:48):
They ideologically aligned with these people who are pushing this
nonsense on you.
Speaker 12 (27:53):
They absolutely do. I mean, even even the stories that
they do break, you know, it'll often be about some
one who's a wounded lion, like Gretchen Whitmurmys. She she's
about a year from eating the early Bird specials. She's
halfway a retiree at this point, so there's no downside
in attacking her. She has no she's not gonna rise
above where she is. And so but then when they
(28:16):
do a story like this Great Seal, Oh my god,
she used the Great Seal on a fundraiser, they'll do
a story about something that happened years ago. And so
even when they do apply what looks to the naked
eye to be scrutiny.
Speaker 3 (28:29):
Oh yeah, we cover them too.
Speaker 12 (28:31):
Yes, exactly it. All those stories are written just so
they can say we cover them too. But if you
look at what's covered and how much of it is historical,
and how very little of it is current day, how
very little of it gets to the meat of how
our state is run, you will see that they are
in on it. And so any report you read out
(28:52):
of a capital city that is sock puppet theater because
everyone's there depends on the ecosystem. That's why you need
Michigan Enjoyer, the Justin Barclays, the Dave Bondi. We're outside
the ecosystem. We don't benefit from it. There's no symbiosis.
So we're able to throw rocks at the castle because
(29:12):
we don't want there to be a castle.
Speaker 2 (29:16):
Yeah, well said James Dixon down I seventy five over
on the X and of course in Michigan Enjoyer.
Speaker 3 (29:24):
So this is important to save our state.
Speaker 2 (29:29):
You know, twenty twenty four is such a big year
for nationally for the country with the election, twenty six
I think is going to be a very similar year
for Michigan. We've got an opportunity, but we're on the
precipice here if we don't get these things right. We've
seen folks some that have called for involvement here in
the fence to get involved in this and oversee this election,
(29:51):
we've seen some lawsuits flying. We're probably going to see
more here in Michigan. How important is the election and
the and the push to make.
Speaker 12 (30:00):
Sure it's accurate, you know, justin Overett Enjoyer. My slogan
is make news local again. And that's what we try
to do, is just give you what matters to the
ten million people who live here, not necessarily depend on
the national narratives. In twenty twenty six, we need to
make politics local again. And so look, Donald Trump is
(30:22):
not walking through that door. His name will never appear
on another ballot, not in twenty twenty six, not in
twenty twenty eight. So what we have the chance to
do is make our politics local because regardless of what's
happening in Washington, Democrats run Michigan, and so we have
a chance to make Chase a case for change. But
(30:43):
we have a chance to talk about the conditions that
we live under, what's happened to our schools, how public
health and public trust has been manipulated, how the budget
has exploded, and how very little benefit it is provided
to the people of Michigan. There is a Michigan specific
store to tell and if we tell it, people will
understand the need for change. We cannot make this about
(31:06):
Donald Trump. It has to be about us. We have
to vote ourselves out of this problem.
Speaker 2 (31:13):
Yeah, well, said James Dixon. Always a pleasure over on X.
Of course the folks here at Michigan and join anything
you're working on that we should stay tuned to look
forward to here in the coming days.
Speaker 12 (31:25):
Yeah, I am digging into everybody's favorite ginger, Mallory McMorrow,
getting to know her origin story and Manna, it's gonna
be a fun one. It's just funny though. Right now
McMorrow the frontrunner to be the Democrat Senate nominee from
New Jersey, Jocelyn Benson the front runner to be the
governor nominee from Pittsburgh. It's an all carpetbagger ticket that
(31:48):
they're working on. So we're gonna need to make politics
local again and get these carpetbaggers sit back home.
Speaker 2 (31:53):
What about that former the ambassador of Ukraine that they
brought in to try and tick out Tom Barrett.
Speaker 12 (32:00):
Every Democrat in Michigan. I mean I heard they were
trying to exhume the body of Steven C. Mason he
would run against next year.
Speaker 2 (32:09):
Fantastic, Always a pleasure, my friend, Thank you so much.
James Dixon down I seventy five over on X, And
of course in Michigan, enjoyer.

Speaker 2 (35:04):
In fact, they say, this individual the breaking news on
the J six pipe bomber arrest man from Virginia will
be in court today.
Speaker 10 (35:12):
Will know the identity A big deal Bill and Dana.
It happened January fifth, twenty twenty one. A mysterious person
covered from head to toe place pipe bombs outside both
the Democratic National Committee and Republican National Committee here in
our nation's capital. We don't know the suspect's name or
anything about this person other than the fact this is
a male that was living in northern Virginia, arrested at
(35:35):
some point within the last ninety minutes. Now in federal custody.
I'm told we'll know more as the day moves on,
and as soon as we have the information, of course,
we will break in with that. But just this past October,
a couple of months ago, the FBI put out this
enhanced video in pictures of the mass suspect planning pipe
bombs near a bench outside the DNC in Washington on
January fifth, twenty twenty one, the night before the attack
(35:58):
on the US Capitol. The suspect then placed the same
type of bomb outside the RNC minutes later. The suspect,
as I said, were a face mask, hooded, sweatshirt, glasses, gloves,
but using FBI technology, agents told the public the suspect
they believe is around five foot seven inches. We'll see
bill if that rings true once we get an identity
later today, agents say the two bombs were placed between
(36:21):
seven thirty and eight thirty at night. The bombs did
not detonate, but this is important. They were viable. They
could have hurt people, they could have killed people. Those
bombs were discovered the next day. Over the past four years,
agents visited twelve hundred homes and businesses, conducted more than
one thousand interviews, reviewed approximately thirty nine thousand video files,
(36:41):
went through six hundred tips. It's notable the reward bill
and data was half a million dollars five hundred thousand dollars.
Speaker 2 (36:50):
This is a story that is going to have You're
gonna send some shock lives depending on who this guy is.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
