Speaker 1 (00:00):
Six a WTVN. This is Zachary Swartz. This is Open FODS.
Good Morning CLUBUS, Hello Ohio. This show's about you and
what you want to talk about. Number to call in
is always six one four eight two one nine eight
eight six six one four eight two one WTVN. I'll
throw some things out there along the way. If you
agree or disagree, feel free to call in. I just

(00:21):
want to mention the Hanta hantavirus. I'm not sure how
to enunciate it U, but the CDC said Wednesday it's
closely monitoring the situation with US travelers aboard the MVY hand.
We're just going to say cruise ship, a cruise ship
that had the confirm the confirmed virus. The State, the

(00:44):
Department of State is leading a coordinated whole of government response,
including direct contact with passengers, diplomatic coordination, and engagement with
domestic and international health authorities. And President Trump said that
he was briefed on it, and he said, quote we
should be fine. We hope quote it is very much,

(01:06):
we hope under control. And he said that he will
release a full report soon, but stop short of providing
exact details on what that might feature. Trump tried to
reassure Americans if they should be worried about the outbreak.
He said, I hope not. I mean, I hope not.
We'll do the best we can. The passengers did not

(01:27):
know that they had been exposed to the virus when
they left the boat.

Speaker 2 (01:32):
Excuse me.

Speaker 1 (01:33):
On April twenty fourth, there's two residents in Texas who
were on it who were exposed to this virus, and
they said they're doing fine, two in Georgia, one in Arizona,
and one in Virginia. Now but they all said that
they are doing, you know, okay. And three suspected patients

(01:55):
were evacuated off the boat when it was in West Africa,
off the coast of Cape.

Speaker 2 (01:59):
Barardo, receiving treatment.

Speaker 1 (02:02):
And a man that got off the boat turn himself
in actually, which very much appreciated when he was experiencing
symptoms in Zurich, Switzerland. And this is one of those
things that hopefully we don't have a repeat of what
happened a few years ago.

Speaker 2 (02:24):
It isn't.

Speaker 1 (02:25):
COVID is a way higher mortality rate, but it doesn't
spread as easily, so hopefully everything just kind of goes
away and it goes smoothly. I still think maybe a
lot of people are a bit traumatized by the whole
COVID thing. It was serious, but the message he'd form
various agencies was a bit horrendous. Let alone every governor,

(02:46):
in my opinion, that owes American people reparations for closing
small businesses, probably.

Speaker 2 (02:53):
When they shouldn't have all of them.

Speaker 1 (02:55):
But to different degrees degrees, you can't close down small
businesses and let big business stay afloat. They picked winners
and losers, and that includes the wine. And some people
closed their state for a month, some did for two years.
And there was a lot of misinformation. And if the

(03:18):
CDC and the WHO and all of these organizations are
going to deal with this, if it spreads it all,
really they need to get their messaging down a lot
better than when.

Speaker 2 (03:30):
It was during the COVID time.

Speaker 1 (03:32):
Luckily, COVID weakened pretty quickly. It replicates and it mutates.
When it spreads, a virus gets weaker, and luckily with
COVID it got weak pretty quick. And it doesn't seem
to be a real risk for the people, the American
people in general, and nothing really to worry about at
the moment, but take care of yourselves, listen to your

(03:54):
doctors that you go and trust, and again, just take
care of yourself some pay attention to the news and
all of that stuff. All right, ray Line one, Good morning, sir.

Speaker 3 (04:06):
Did you say, ray Am I on the air?

Speaker 1 (04:08):
Yes, you're on the air, sirt.

Speaker 3 (04:10):
Okay, it's kind of quick. Yeah, I'm a microbiologist, so
I know what you're talking about. You know, Dave comes
in every weekend for years. Actually he's been saying boys
and girls, calling us boys and girls and I and
I'm begin to believe he's right because little children which
she's calling on, you know, ignorant gullibull in nineties and

(04:37):
I think the general public, compelling me, including them anyways,
are not informed. But on in hand, Dave then gives us,
you know, the mass media and information to enlightenment as well.
The mass media didn't gornalize anybody that get the straight story.
But Bob, I'm Burger Day and so actually what Dave

(04:58):
gives us his pablom. But anyhow, they are Mark, I'm
trying his name, Michael from the South. He gave us
several weeks ago, well a list of people, and I
think it was about a dozen of insiders. You know
that we're alternative media that really does tell you what's
going on. For example, one of the persons he mentions

(05:21):
is a previous ambassador for several professors, military officers and
independent specialists, intelligence and specialists like CIA and independent news
journalists with years of experience, and they're on the YouTube

(05:42):
and you can also find them at their side. So
look up those names and then you really find out
what's going on, not with the Masthay gives you. I
give you an example, we children, you know, make the
story from our government and and go along with them,
calling hamas now hamas for those of us children that

(06:06):
don't stay up on this is the people in Gaza.
They were eighty percent of them in Gaza were living
in the area of Palestine and they got moved into
the Gaza city and Israel Skyabama the hell of them
and shooting him on the street. And what's going on

(06:27):
there is enormous. And some of these professors that Michael
pointed out called plain and simple murder mass murder. So
so what but from the human from American fundamental principles,
they're not terrorists, they're freedom fighters. They're trying to maintain

(06:49):
their identity, their homes and their family. Same way with
his blah. Now his are the people who live in
southern Lebanon, and what's going on there is who was
moving the armies taking over the homes and lambs bombing
the hell on them, shoot him anytime they can and uh,
and they're called terrorists by our government, all rights fighting

(07:13):
for Hey, my, I have a hearing problem. So when
you speak up, I don't know. Let's go on.

Speaker 1 (07:19):
No, no, no, you're you're fired. Ray, we got to
go to break. I'm not meaning to cut people off
on purpose. And Bob, I'm sorry that I had to
go to break. But what they say, you know, one
man's terrorists is another man's freedom fighter. And it's all
a very convoluted issue over there.

Speaker 2 (07:36):
And that would take.

Speaker 1 (07:39):
At least an entire show just to talk about just
that and all the nuances and it's it's been going
on for a really really long time. All right, six
A w TV and we'll be right back six A
WTV and missus Zachary Swartz on Open Foods. I know
we got some people that we need to get to.

(08:00):
The phones are lined up, but I really really want
to delve in before the show's over it, I might
do it next break or the end about Cuba and
President Trump saying that we're gonna.

Speaker 2 (08:16):
Maybe invade Cuba, and who knows exactly what he means.

Speaker 1 (08:19):
It could just be joking as per usual, or could
be kind of serious. I don't know, but the blockade
and the lack of fuel, and people are now starting
to deal with a lot of health problems because there's
been an infestation of rats and et cetera, et cetera.
Because we can't get rid of trash in Cuba, they

(08:42):
can't use the garbage trucks to get rid of trash.
It's becoming worse and worse. And just kind of the
history of what we've done to Cuba, at least for
the last sixty years, that's covered up pretty soon. Okay, Michael,
Good morning, sir.

Speaker 2 (09:01):
How's it going.

Speaker 4 (09:03):
Hey, good morning, Zach. You know, I really appreciate Ray
reiterating my call from a few weeks ago. And I'll
go down the list of all the news sources that
people really need to pay attention to. On YouTube, you
can watch Judge Napolitano.

Speaker 1 (09:22):
He was on Fox for a while, right, Yeah.

Speaker 4 (09:26):
Yeah, so so was Tucker Carlson. And you know, there
are several people that have either been fired or left
Fox News because of you know, the control the fake
news they put out. But anyways, he has several great guests,
and these are the people you need to listen to
if you want the truth now, if you want propaganda,

(09:47):
stick with Fox News. Colonel McGregor, he was President Trump's
the first administration. He was the senior advisor to the
Secretary of Defense. You have a Jewish journalist, Mac Blumenthal,
very objective truth teller. You have also Jewish professor Professor Mersheimer,

(10:09):
also a Jewish professor, Jeffrey SATs, former United Nations Weapons
inspector Scott Ritter Marine. You have former CIA Ray McGovern
You have former CIA Phil Giraldi, also Lawrence Wilkerson. And
there's Karen Kolakowski, she was Air Force. And I could

(10:33):
go on with three or four others, but those are
the main people you need to listen to. Now. Mister
Dave from Pale made a statement about how good Cash
Patel and Dan Bongino were. See he gets his news points,
his talking points from Fox News. That's a joke, Dave

(10:53):
Cash Patel told everybody, and so did Dan Bongino that
there was nothing to see in the Epstein files, that
if they had seen any evidence, they would have prosecuted it.
What a lie. And then he also mentioned how much
respect he gave women, you know, referring to Mother's Day,

(11:14):
mister Trump, he was referring to and remember everybody, Mister
Trump on the Howard Stern Show bragged about grabbing women
in the P word or that's the slang for vagina.
He also bragged about going into the dressing rooms of
his beauty pageants while the young ladies were nude and

(11:38):
he would get to examine their bodies. He bragged about this.
So Dave wants to tell us how respectful our President
Trump is to women, which is a disgusting joke. President
Trump is an animal and he also deserves to be
brought up on warp crimes and be charged and hopefully

(12:00):
found guilty and put in prison for what he is
doing in aiding genocide and starting an unconstitutional war. Now
remember Kent State, everybody, nineteen seventy Kent State University, May
the fourth, This is when four people were killed by

(12:21):
the National Guard. It was a nonviolent protest demonstration of
redress of grievance. But Governor Rhodes ordered the National Guard
onto the campus and they opened fire. There were orders given,
And all you have to do is you can go

(12:42):
on YouTube type in Kent State nineteen seventy and you
will see the live video that was recorded how the
guardsmen all of a sudden opened fire on a crowd.
Four people were killed. President Nixon on the claim that

(13:02):
he was going to end the Vietnam War. Does it
sound familiar? Everybody? Trump ran on the claim he was
going to end the war. Well, the opposite has happened,
just like with Nixon when he decided to invade Saigon.
That's what caused the massive protests all across the country

(13:25):
and the slaughter that took place at Kent State University.
History is repeating itself, and mister Dwight Eisenhower warned us.
He warned us about the military industrial complex, unchecked power.
And then after Eisenhower we had John F. Kennedy warning

(13:48):
us about secret societies that would attempt to control government.
And if anybody is not aware of secret societies, just
look it up. Skull and Bones is a good one.
Yale and Harvard, mister Bush and his daddy Senior Bush

(14:09):
both were members of the Skull and Bones Secret Society,
and then they have the little baby organizations of secret societies.
There's a long list of the local secret societies that
infiltrate your county and city governments and control from within.
And these are the types of things governments need to avoid.

(14:32):
And this is what happened with our government in the
early eighteen hundreds. It was infected with secret societies. So
people really need to understand that we're being lied to
on a large, grand scale for over one hundred years,

(14:52):
and what we have now is a government gone wild
out of control. And this is why you're now paying
four dollars and fifty cents a gallon for regular gas.
And I heard earlier somebody was complaining about not being
able to afford medical bills at the doctor or at

(15:13):
the dentist. Well, keep in mind, everyone, we send four
billion a year to Israel so they can provide free
education and free healthcare to their people in Israel. Doesn't
that make you feel warm and fuzzy that you're helping
the chosen. It's a joke. It's a sickening joke, people,

(15:34):
And I just want to thank you guys. Saturday morning,
open phones. Ella and Zach, you do a great job.
And there is only one radio station in America that
allows you freedom of speech like this, and it's WTVN.
So be sure to patronize all the advertisers on wtv IN.

Speaker 1 (15:54):
Thank you, Zach Michael have a great one. Appreciate the enthusiasm.
Like I always say, we probably disagree on a lot
of things, to put it mildly, but I appreciate you
saying the things that you feel like you need to
say at a public arena. All right, Candy, how are
you this morning, ma'am?

Speaker 5 (16:14):
Good morning. I just want to mention, do not fall
for that new is it the haunt of virus? I
believe this is sort of a new COVID two point
zero because remember the midterms are coming up, so they
have to justify the mail in ballots in order to
steal the election again. Next, I wanted to wish every

(16:39):
mother and grandmother a happy Mother's Day. Our children our
most precious gifts, and our job is to protect the children.
And I wanted to mention that first, Lady Milania, she
gave a special call to action. She has asked that

(17:00):
the Epstein victims who are now adults in their forties,
raising families that it is their time to speak out
and to name their perpetrators, and that their testimonies are
going to be added to the official Congressional record. That's
taking place on May twelfth. They're being interviewed, and I

(17:22):
heard there's hundreds of Epstein victims that are now adults.
The next thing I want to mention was there's a
national Day of Prayer on May seventeenth, and we're calling
all prayer warriors to pray from the seventeenth, not just
that day, but for forty nine days I believe, up

(17:44):
to the two hundred and fifty year celebration on July fourth.
And what I'm hearing is we're going to see a
new currency. We are going to see President Trump's signature
on this new dollar. I think he's replacing the I
R S the federal income tax, and we're going to

(18:04):
be getting tariffs instead. That's how they're going to fund
the government is through the tariffs. So I think it's
going to be a wonderful celebration if people knew they
didn't have to pay the taxes anymore. But we'll see.
I don't that's just a rumor. I am seeing a
lot of public indictments and arrests in my news feed

(18:26):
and on the news, and I think this is time
that our country is bringing disclosure and accountability for all
these evil ones that have been around, you know, sexual crazy,
deviant people, fraudsters, people fraud, you know, fraudulently using medicare.

(18:48):
I'm seeing a lot of the healthcare fraud people getting
in trouble, and I understand. The big bombshell is that
the FBI has the receipts that the twenty twenty election
was stolen. So I pray all this comes out. The
last thing I wanted to mention was Cuba. You had

(19:09):
mentioned Cuba. Somehow, I'm seeing that Cuba is connected to
the CIA crime syndicate through There's a lot going on
behind the scenes that we don't care about in the
news because a lot of the news is monitored. So
hopefully that connection will be coming out soon. I think

(19:29):
it's connected to Venezuela and could be connected to the
twenty twenty stolen elections. So thank you Zach for having
me have a wonderful.

Speaker 1 (19:39):
Day, Candy, have a great rest of your weeknd. I
appreciate it. Six ten WTV and we'll be right back
sixthen WTV and Saturday Morning open folds and Mark the poet,
Good morning.

Speaker 2 (19:53):
How are you.

Speaker 6 (19:56):
Find Zach? How are you?

Speaker 2 (19:57):
I'm doing okay? What are you have for us today?

Speaker 3 (20:00):
Okay?

Speaker 6 (20:01):
Today's poem is dedicated to everyone who has ever taken
a chemistry class and looked at the periodic table that
lists the one hundred and eighteen elements that are found
on planet Earth. The poem is one minute and forty
five seconds long. It's rated G, and it's called a
diamond in the rough. Making small talk with a stranger

(20:26):
is a crucial skill for me. It's been a lifelong battle,
usually uphill at church. A lady of a certain age
and I began to chat. A striking brooch of yellow
gold adorned her Easter hat. I said, your brooch is beautiful.

(20:46):
Is it made of real gold? She looked aghast and
glared at me. Her tone grew icy cold. She said,
do you know who I am? Please, sir, I guarantee
I'm not the kind of woman who wears costume jewelry.
That night I told my wife, She said, you simply
need to try to filter out your rude remarks. And

(21:10):
do so on the fly. I said, you're right, I
can improve. Allow me to explain. There are some gaps
in every evolutionary chain. We men evolved from awkwardness to smoothness.
Don't you think between these two conditions I might be
the missing link? She said, you're missing something. Dear of that,

(21:33):
there is no doubt. I objected, hold on, now, you
need to hear me out. To filter out misplaced remarks
is challenging. It's tough, and at this stage, I guess
I'm still a diamond in the rough. She said, A
diamond in the rough. I think you'd fail that test.

(21:55):
I would classify you as melybdenum at best.

Speaker 1 (22:01):
The end, Thank you, Mark, I appreciate it. You have
a great weeked you do.

Speaker 6 (22:07):
Thank you.

Speaker 7 (22:07):
Thank you.

Speaker 1 (22:08):
My friend tomline one, Good morning. How are you this morning?

Speaker 7 (22:13):
Good morning?

Speaker 6 (22:14):
Can you hear me?

Speaker 7 (22:15):
Okay?

Speaker 1 (22:15):
Yeah, you sound fine?

Speaker 7 (22:18):
Okay, great? Yeah again? Thank you for this venue, you
and Ella and Zach I agree with I think a
fantastic way to try to figure things out is to
create a list of people that you trust. And every
one of those people are Mike mentioned are on my list,

(22:40):
and I have a much longer list. I'm not going
to go into that. I often will just you know,
recite views of another person that I look up to.
And that's what I wanted to cover today is this guy,
former hedge fund manager from Ohio. He lived in Cleveland

(23:03):
and then moved to Wall Street. That's where he had
his major part of his career. His name is David
Rogers Web and he wrote a book called The Great Taking.
People can get that book. It's free, Great Taking dot
com and it essentially it's very eye opening and frightening.

(23:31):
Web figured out a way to make a system that
worked to make a lot of money, and he put
in incredible hours and was under incredible pressure in Wall
Street and then his wife said enough of that and
he moved back to Cleveland. Over time, he learned how
banking worked out in the bottom line on it, or

(23:55):
one of the major issues here is that he discovered that,
as we've heard before, the bankers really control government, and
they control foreign policy and wars, and the bank of
all banks, the central bank of all banks, is the
BIS and Brussels. Now, I guess if I'm going to

(24:21):
have one major point here, it's that the way banking
is modernized and we have these market makers, these intermediaries,
and it comes under the heading of CCP. And you
know that's not the Communist Party that's stamps for this
irritating acronym called central Clearing counter Parties. If you read web,

(24:48):
you's got these terms that are kind of mind blowing,
but they're very important. And it turns out these are
these are big power centers because they actually hold all
our Basically, if you buy securities, including US treasuries, they
hold them. So if you're going to buy a US treasury,

(25:09):
which is considered like the most secure thing, you don't
want to buy it from them. You want to get
it from Treasury direct. Pretty much, anything you get through
a counterparty, it's you don't own it. And the reason
for this is that these these the banking community worldwide

(25:30):
is passed laws and one of the approaches they did
in the US is they passed they use this uniform
code approach. Have so much money, they lobbied in each
and every individual state to separately pass laws that gave
them essentially collateral rights over your stocks and bonds and

(25:53):
uh uh, all the equities, the EFTs, the index funds.
So why is this important? Well, in parallel with this,
the derivatives market. The derivatives market grew up, and you
know that's there's more money in that than there is
wealth in the world. So there's incredible risk there. And

(26:16):
so to cover that, they use your own securities is collateral.
So this is this bail in thing. And sorry, this
just goes on and on, but I would urge people
to look into into this and realize that these The
other the other point that he makes, probably close to

(26:37):
being on a time here, right, is that is that
the number of controllers at the top is incredibly small,
and they're all faceless, and the leaders that have faces
generally aren't controlled by the bankers. So again, David Rogers,
web look up the website called a Great Taking dot com.

(26:59):
It's a free book. You can download it.

Speaker 1 (27:02):
Interesting.

Speaker 2 (27:02):
Yeah, I'll die, definitely. I've already googled it while you
were setting here.

Speaker 1 (27:06):
And yeah, but it comes to banking and all the
intricreases of it. It's a little bit over my head,
to be honest, but you got to start subway and
I appreciate your call.

Speaker 7 (27:15):
Have a great weekend, all right, thank you much.

Speaker 1 (27:18):
Thanks Zachary Schwartz. Sixth Heed WTV and Doug and Paul
will get to you when the break is over. Thank
you sixth he WTV. This is Zachary Swartz, and thank
you for listening. I'm going to say some things that
might make some people a little upset. And it's more
I'm not defending anything. It's more of me questioning things,

(27:41):
especially when it comes to the neighbor to our south,
ninety miles off the coast of Florida, Cuba. I'm not
sure why we keep acting, or we did at least
in the fifties at sixties. Well, what Fidel took over
that Havana is like some global super villain, and I

(28:04):
don't understand.

Speaker 2 (28:07):
Why people get so up in arms about that country.

Speaker 1 (28:11):
The old America versus Communism paradigm that's kind of dying.
The younger generations don't understand it at Just a little
history about Cuba. America used to back Batista monetarily. He
was the right wing dictator who was in charge before
Fidel took power. We kind of took advantage. We raped

(28:32):
their sugar resources, their natural resources. We had casinos, hotels, brothels,
and nobody who was from Cuba got anything from that.

Speaker 2 (28:42):
We did and the mob.

Speaker 1 (28:44):
But then Fidel came to power. Batista ran away. He
kicked out all the casinos, the hotels that said, if
you want to be here, take our resources, you must
pay us. We didn't like it, so we tried to
kill them for sixty years. We tried to invade Cuba
during the Bay of Pigs, which was one of the
worst things that we could have ever done. At Kennedy

(29:04):
was one of the worst people who's ever been president.
But that's a whole other thing. We killed Jay Grivera
Bolivia with the help of our propaganda. It wasn't even
just Cuba. Look at Operation Condor in the seventies and
eighties and the atrocities that happened to any movement to
the right or to the left of any recent democratic president.

(29:28):
The embargo on Cuba began in nineteen sixty under Eisenhower.
It was expanded under JFK in nineteen sixty two. The
official logic was that Cuba's communist government posed a threat
to the Western hemisphere, and a lot of people used
to use and they still do, the idea of the
Monroe Doctrine to be able to justify anything that we

(29:52):
do in this Hemisphere. The Monroe Doctrine was nothing more
than it wasn't a law, but it was nothing more
than telling Europe Britain excused me that they couldn't put
any more colonies in the United States. It had nothing
to do with expanding territory, It had nothing to do
with countries in Latin America, and that we had some

(30:16):
sort of free reign to do whatever we wanted to
these countries. That is not what the Monroe Doctrine was.
And if you don't know what Operation Condor was, it
started in I think seventy five under Ford, who Ford
wasn't there a very long time, but he was there
long enough to commit atrocities himself. He helped fund monetarily

(30:40):
the beginning stages of the Indonesian invasion and colonization of
East Timor that killed one hundred and eighty five to
two hundred and twenty thousand people. But from seventy five
to about eighty five eighty six, I think when Reagan
was president, Operation Condor was something where we would stamp
out leftists' views, and to do that because it was

(31:05):
again US versus Communism, we ended up backing right wing
dictators Pinochet at Chile, Vedella in Argentina, Menindez in Uruguay,
Strassner at Paraguay, Banzard Bolivia. I believe his name was
a Nursto at Brazil. It goes on and on and on,

(31:26):
people who were absolutely horredous human beings, but we backed them.
They were dictators, but we were allowed to do business
and go into their countries and kind of get what
we want and there was no pushback. There's no pushback
like wod Fidel was at cash or would Castro took
over Cuba and didn't allow us to do whatever we

(31:51):
wanted to the resources. But back to Cuba, I think
after the Bay of Pigs, I think Kennedy was embarrassed.
I think Johnson wasn't to And since then it's just
been a long standing American position to embargo, blockade, sanctioned
Cuba for well, I don't know existing. I mean, how
much money do we spend on this? Why in the

(32:13):
world would we invade Cuba? And I only mention it
because the President mentions it. It can't be about helping
people are saving lives because it can't get much worse
than the Sudan It can't get much worse than South
Sudan or the northern part of.

Speaker 2 (32:32):
The Congo.

Speaker 1 (32:32):
It can't get worse than North Korea. It can't get
worse in Monrovia, in Liberia. So what's the point. Cuba
isn't out there building bases, They're not out there dropping
bombs on other countries. That's not what they do. It
seems every few years the American government suddenly remembers that

(32:55):
Cuba is exists, and that they just get upset up
at it again. The President said, it'll be just a
question at a time before you and a lot of
unbelievable people are going back to Cuba, and it's going
to fall pretty soon, and we should we should maybe
go in.

Speaker 2 (33:15):
We'll see, We'll not see.

Speaker 1 (33:17):
But Cuba doesn't pose any threat to.

Speaker 2 (33:19):
The United States.

Speaker 1 (33:20):
We have treated Cuba like some kind of again international
supervillain plotting world domination, which in reality, it's just setting there.
It exports doctors and cigars and figuring out a way
to keep a country running while its neighbors US keep
trying to just ruin it. We have blockaded trade, limited travel,

(33:45):
restricted banking, try just about every economic pressure tactic short
of sending a passive aggressive email that Cuba would eventually
collapse or beg Washington for forgiveness. And the funniest part
is that Cuba's not threatening anybody, So I don't get it.

(34:05):
They're not invading countries, they're not running around with aircraft
carriers building military bases around the world. In fact, what
a Cuba's biggest international exports has been doctors. The country
sends medical teams to disaster zones and undeserved nations or
underserved nations worldwide. That's the truth, like it or not.
Not defending Castro, I'm not defending the human rights abuses

(34:28):
that go on in Cuba. But why are we been
fixated on this country for sixty years? And I think
it's because a guy Dave Fidel Castro kicked all of
our interest out and we didn't want to pay to
do whatever we wanted with their country, so we've just
tried to kill them for sixty years. We keep going

(34:50):
back to it. It's been political theater. If you want
to feel tough on communism, you got to bring up Cuba.
But again, Cuba's has the population of Ohio. It's a
tiny island in the in the scope of things, it's
shorthand to proven you were tough on communism even before

(35:12):
the excuse me, the Cold War ended, and I just
don't understand why we keep messing with with Cuba at all.
I think we should just leave it alone again. I'm
not defending the human rights abuses or the regime there,
but I think we just waste a great deal of time,
all right, From Ella and Zach is the sixth WTV
