Even CNN's Anderson Cooper doesn't believe the polls and the media is starting to see the reality of how strong Trump's support is. Jim joins a wholesale club and loves it! Musk to go to Mars with unmanned crafts in two years, Dems vote against deporting illegal immigrants that commit sex crimes, San Francisco puts police officers in chicken costumes, and a new poll concludes that Trump is more popular than Taylor Swift.

com and the author of more than thirty books, Jim Paris.
Speaker 3 (00:58):
All right, hello everybody, welcome to the cast. Great to
have you with us. I am recording this one on
September twenty second, twenty twenty four, just to give you
a little bit of a context there. And I had
a great weekend. So it's a Sunday night here. I'm
just relaxing my condo up on the fourth floor here
at the European Village in Palm Coast, just relaxing tonight
(01:20):
and looking over my list of topics that I want
to talk about, but just so grateful for a wonderful
weekend and this is such a beautiful time of year
here in Florida, especially the contrast between what we just
got out of, which is you know, the July August
ninety five degrees, ninety eight degrees, super high humidity. But
(01:42):
it was a great weekend. So Saturday, I took a
picture taking assignment which only took me about five to
ten minutes to complete. And that's with this new course
I have. I'm gonna talk about a little bit more
later in the program, but Reelpicks dot Us is the course,
and I'm actually doing the work myself too, going out
(02:03):
and taking these pictures. And it was for a refinance,
and went down to the beach a beautiful home, took
some pictures, submitted that so that I could get paid.
Then I walked over to my favorite coffee shop, got
a coffee and a donut, walked over to the beach.
Just had a beautiful day Saturday. And then it got
(02:25):
better because Saturday night was the annual Octoberfest that we
play at Saint James Church. And a lot of people
know that I play the trumpet, that I used to
be a professional trumpet player. I used to be on
tour and I'm a part of a band here in
daytona beach called the Moonlighters. And I've been with this
(02:47):
band now, I think twenty one or twenty two years,
and we used to be an eighteen piece big band,
but we've kind of cut it down to about a
ten piece band now. But once a year week kind
of morphed the band into a German band, and that's
what we did last night. And it was so much
fun playing this oompah German music and the polkas and
(03:10):
all that. And it's at a church and it's a
fundraiser for their private school there and they have all
the women come out and make the most wonderful dinner,
you know, all the different kinds of German sausage and
the potato salad and the sour crowd and then the
German chocolate cake at the end of the night with
wonderful coffee. It was just so much fun. I mean, fantastic,
(03:34):
get paid to play the show, get a beautiful dinner.
So I just had a fantastic day on Saturday. But
what I've got to tell you about is my crazy
day on Friday, which is we have this new discount house.
This discount warehouse in town called Bejas and pomp Cooast
is a small town. I think our population is maybe
(03:57):
one hundred and ten or one hundred and twenty thousand,
I think that's right. So we're not a big town.
We're like thirty minutes north of Daytona, so Daytona is
a much bigger town. And then also to the north
of us is we're about thirty minutes south of Saint Augustine,
which is a bigger town as well. And then of
(04:17):
course you have Jacksonville, which is ginormous. But anyway, we
got this Bjay's Wholesale Club and they've been promoting this
for I don't know, maybe a year year and a
half that they were building this, and you drive by
it and you'd see all the construction and they'd have
the sign up and this is coming. And I was
curious about it because I've never been in a Bja's
(04:38):
wholesale club, and I've never you know, It's been probably
maybe twenty years since I've been in any kind of
a discount wholesale club, only because where I live there
isn't one. So even when I lived in Daytona, we
just went to Walmart usually. I think maybe one year
(04:59):
we had a s AM's membership, but generally we didn't
do the SAMs thing. We just did Walmart and then
the local grocery stores. But it was incredible. I had
to circle the parking lot. You got to see the
video on my Facebook. I had to circle the parking
lot maybe twenty times to get a spot, and it
was doggy dog and you could hardly walk in the store.
(05:21):
It was just there's so many people there. But I
really love this idea. In fact, I went back this
morning to BJ's because I need a little bit of
groceries and I was thinking, I wonder if it's still
as crowded as it was on the opening day, and
it wasn't. It wasn't crowded, and that was nice. I
was able to get a parking spot, I was able
(05:43):
to go in, and they've got this deal where you
get for a dollar sixty five, you get this giant
quarter pound all beef hot dog and then you get
a soda for a buck sixty five. And that's pretty nice.
So they've got a little seating area with a bunch
of tables, so you know, get yourself a hot dog
and a soda. And then I didn't buy too much.
(06:04):
You know, I live by myself, I'm single, so I
didn't buy too much, but what I did buy, I
have to tell you, is pretty darn close to half
the price of what I would have paid at publics.
So this is really going to be a game changer
for our small town. I mean, we do have all these,
(06:27):
and I really like all these prices. The problem is
all these is kind of a weird store. I don't
know if all these are like this, but our town,
oddly enough, has too all these, and the aisles are
so narrow that you really can't two people can't pass
each other with a cart in the aisles. I don't
even get a cart. I usually just have like two bags.
(06:48):
I have those insulated bags that they sell at all these.
So I like all these too. But I'm telling you,
the prices on a lot of things, not everything, but
on a lot of things are just incredible, Like I'm
talking about fifty percent off. So yeah, so I got
I got a little bit of groceries on Friday at
(07:09):
the grand opening, but that was mostly just about going
in there and taking a look because I haven't been
in one of these places in so long, and I
just I had a lot of fun. And so if
you want to see that video it is on my
Facebook page of me waiting into the to the mush
pit at vj's Ohsale Club. Really interesting. Okay, So Anderson
(07:31):
Cooper is admitting that he says, he admits that deep down,
quote unquote, he's skeptical about the twenty twenty four polls.
He says, I don't think I buy them, And you know,
I agree with what he's saying. And I know that
it's well known fact that Trump does underperform in polls.
(07:53):
He always does, because there's sort of that and I
think a lot of us have this feeling about Trump,
like we love Trump and his policies, but maybe we
don't want to be like too public about it because
there are some kind of edgy things about Trump. Some
people don't care. You know, they wear the make America
Great Again hat everywhere they go. And I have no
(08:15):
problem with people that want to be that public about it.
But I get it. I get it why some people
don't want to put the Trump sign in their yard.
And there's a certain percentage of people that in these
polls will not admit that they support Trump, that that's
who they're going to vote for, and so Trump always
underperforms in these polls. I mean, if if I got
a polling call, I would say I'm voting for Trump.
(08:37):
I mean, would I would admit it. But I get
it that there are some people that don't want to
be publicly, you know, attached to Trump. I understand that
he's you know, polarizing guy. But I think the honeymoon
is definitely over for Kamala and I'm really looking forward
to election day. I think this is going to be
(08:58):
transformative for country. And you know, it might have been
a good thing, honestly, that we had the four years
of this just horrible nightmare of double gas prices. And
I know they're saying twenty percent increase in groceries, it
was a lot more than that. I mean, I'm telling you,
(09:21):
I think some grocery items are up fifty percent or
seventy percent. Just just go and look at like the
meat section at a grocery store, and there's no way
that that's just twenty percent up from four years ago.
I mean, a tiny little package of ground beef is
going to cost you, you know, almost ten dollars, and
(09:44):
it's just crazy. I don't know how people are are
feeding families, But that's why you've got BJ's whosale club,
So there you go, and they're not a sponsor, but
maybe there was some good in that for people to
experience what that is all about, you know, to have
democrats in control, and so maybe that was good. And
(10:05):
maybe we'll get four years with Trump and then we'll
get another four years with Vance after four years with Trump.
So we'll just have to watch it. But I personally,
I'm with Anderson Cooper on this, maybe one of the
rare times that I agree with him. I'm not buying
these polls that everything is like neck and neck. It's
just not all right. The show is really growing again,
(10:28):
and why not right because I'm doing regular episodes and
it's been tough getting to do regular episodes, and I'm
working on a book and I've been talking about it
for two or three years about some of the things
that have happened to me over the last two or
three years that have really been really crushed my spirit
(10:48):
and put me some days into the deepest depression. And
I'm going to be writing about it. I know I've
said that before, and i know some of you know
a little bit about some of the things that have happened,
But sometimes it's just hard to get up and and
be positive and turn on the microphone. But I'll tell
you what motivates me more than anything is seeing all
(11:10):
the thousands of downloads and you guys are back, and
I am so excited that I have. I think I'm
on the on the other side of all of this
stuff that I've been struggling with and hoping that we're
just gonna, you know, keep knocking these out every week.
In particular, where we're doing very well are the live streams,
which you can now stream us on the Amazon devices
(11:33):
if you add the skill called Jim Paris Radio. If
you add that skill to your devices, you can then
voice activate and have that play and you can just
open up your device app. I don't want to say
the word A L e XA because in mine will
all start talking to me here in the middle of
the show. And then you can add that skill of
(11:56):
Jim Paris Radio. Okay, so we are going to Ireland.
I don't know if I gave any details on it
the last time we were together, but it's on June
the tenth of next year, June the tenth to the seventeenth.
We're going to Ireland and then after our seven days
(12:16):
in Ireland. There is an optional three additional days in
London if you want to choose to also go to London.
So we are doing a live zoom webinar to discuss
all the details of it on Tuesday night, so that
is the twenty fourth of September at seven thirty pm Eastern.
(12:40):
If you're interested in that Ireland trip, go to my Facebook.
James L. Paris is my name on Facebook. You can
go there. You can I can't accept any more friends.
I'm up to the maximum of five thousand friends, but
you can still be a follower and still get all
my content. But if you look there, there is a
link where you can sign up to be on that
(13:02):
Tuesday night informational meeting about the trip to Ireland and
what's exciting about this trip. We're gonna be going to
you know, all the major cities, you know, Doublin and
all that, but we're also going to be going to Castle's.
This is somewhat all inclusives. A lot of meals are
involved are paid for already as part of the trip.
(13:25):
The excursions are included for the most part as part
of the trip. But we're going to get into all
those details on Tuesday, and we're going to be able
to take up to twenty people to Ireland. And I'm
really looking forward to this, not only because I've never
been to Ireland, but just to hang out with you guys,
to be able to get together with my podcast listeners
(13:47):
and to go on this adventure. And so I'm definitely
gonna do Ireland in the extra three days in London,
and I hope you'll join us. So check that out
on the Facebook page. So as was announced I think
about three weeks ago, Trump says, if elected, he's going
to put Elon Musk in charge of a so called
(14:09):
Government Efficiency Committee to be able to kind of tear
down and look at, you know, how the government runs
and what can we do to make it more efficient.
And there's got to be a lot of ways, right,
I mean, all the different agencies, so much fat in
these agencies, and the pay that people get and the
(14:29):
retirement that they get, and I mean, God bless them,
but I mean there's got to be a bunch of
ways to save money. And here's kind of example, you know,
exhibit A, which is Elon Musk has announced that within
two years he will have five onmanned spaceships that will
be launched to Mars. And I mean, just think about
(14:53):
how fast this guy is moving with space exploration and
what he's able to do with just a fraction of
the budget that the government has, that NASA has, and
how much faster and further he is going. It is
really remarkable. And I would love to see what he
could do to say, reform the IRS, just as an example.
(15:17):
I mean, there's so many agencies that need to be reformed,
of course, the FBI and the Justice Department, the IRS,
there's just so many I think over staffed agencies and
efficiencies could definitely be implemented. This story this is real,
but you're not going to think it is because you
(15:39):
have to ask yourself who could possibly vote this way?
But this is from Fox News. One hundred and fifty
eight Democrats vote against a bill to deport illegal immigrants
who commit sex crimes. Isn't that insane? Who are these people?
(16:00):
I mean, I guess I get it on one level.
If you are for opening up the borders, as insane
as that is, maybe in some you know, like liberal context,
I can understand that, and you're hoping that that will
bring all these new voters in and help the Democrats
that obviously that's what the hopes are. But this, this
(16:24):
is like a bridge too far. One hundred and fifty
eight Democrats vote against a bill to deport illegal immigrants
who commit sex crimes. Who could possibly want these individuals
here that are committing sex crimes. I don't know, but
(16:45):
maybe maybe some parts of the country are are getting
a little bit more reasonable. I was going to say California,
but I've got another story here about California and crime
that I'm going to jump through real quick, because this
is one that I've got a couple of stories today
about crime in California, but this one is pretty amazing.
(17:08):
So there is a guy I gotta find this story
here because I just handed up on my screen. He
is known as the Pillowcase rapist in California, and he
is being released from prison after having raped I believe
(17:31):
forty women is his track record, his rap sheet, forty women.
This guy is raped, and I think he is right
now seventy three or seventy forty years old, and California
has this insane policy. They call it like an elderly
(17:55):
release program something like that. I don't know the exact term,
But the idea is, you know, once a criminal gets
into their seventies, we're kind of almost like, whatever they've done,
we're going to let them out. We're gonna have this
like mercyful release for them so that they can live
out their final days in the sunshine. I don't know.
(18:18):
I mean, what happens to somebody like this who's in
their seventies, who has forty rapes that are connected to them?
Where's this guy gonna work? I mean, how's he going
to pay rent? I mean, how is this going to work?
How is this possibly gonna work out? And just because
he's in his seventies doesn't mean he's us He's not dangerous, right,
(18:40):
I mean, he could get a gun. There's a lot
of things you can still do if you're in your
seventies to harm other people. And I don't know, maybe
I'm just pollyannish, but I would think that after you've
raped forty women that you would basically have given up
your right to freedom for the rest of your life.
But that appears to not be the case. The Pillowcase rapist.
(19:02):
I mean, this guy's actually got like his own criminal
superhero name. He is the pillowcase rapist that is his moniker,
and they're considering no. It says they have already decided
they're going to release him, the pillowcase rapist. And San
(19:23):
Francisco is trying something a little bit different to fight crime.
They've got like a social media outreach where they're taking
their police officers and they're putting them in giant chicken
costumes and having them walk around in the neighborhoods. They're
patrolling in chicken costumes. Now, I wish I was joking,
(19:50):
but this is real. They're actually and there's a picture
of this online if you want to google it. They're
they're wearing chicken costumes. Now, the police in San Francisco,
and we continue with more news in San Francisco. There's
a story out now that San Francisco has just recently
decided that they've had enough of the homeless. They want
(20:12):
to get rid of the homeless. I mean, this is
a city where there actually is a job title where
you are to walk around all day and clean up
defecation on the streets and sidewalks. That is actually like
a job because people drop their pants and do their
(20:36):
business on the sidewalk and in the streets, yes in
San Francisco, but San Francisco, and they were putting them
in hotels and literally started driving out. All these major
chains were leaving. I think it was Walgreens and Target.
(20:56):
Stars just they've had enough. They want to get out
of town. And the business owners are basically through also
the smaller neighborhood businesses that they can't operate. It's just
not safe. It's on savory. The sidewalks are covered with tents.
So the story is that San Francisco is trying to
clean up a little bit. I mean it's kind of
(21:16):
a day late and a dollar short, right, I mean,
you're basically the city of San Francisco is probably one
of the most beautiful cities in the world if you've
never been there. The goldiegate Bridge, the fog coming in
across the Pacific Ocean in San Francisco Bay, it is
just a breathlessly gorgeous place. But it has been destroyed
(21:41):
and it may it may just be too late. It
may just be too late for them to try and
turn this around. So millions of Gulf Coast residents are
being warned of another tropical storm, and this one is huge,
and I saw some pictures of it this after and
they're kind of showing that as many of these golf
(22:04):
storms are, it can kind of go like more to
the west, or it could go more to the east,
so like Florida could be hit, or it could be
back again to sort of the you know, upper part
of Texas or even there into like New Orleans area, Alabama.
(22:25):
You know, it could be in there as well. But
so we've got this storm and we're right now just
entering the heart of hurricane season. It's the time of
year where people in Florida were watching the news. But
there's two additional storms other than this one, and those
two storms are still in the Atlantic. None of these
storms have been named yet, but we're looking at this
(22:48):
some one in the golf and it does look scary.
Reelpicks dot Us, one of my real pick students, shared
with me this story last week. He had a few
hours drive to visit a family member. He lives in Iowa.
He needed to drive a few hours over to Missouri
(23:09):
to visit a family member and he did reel picks
gigs along the way. It made one hundred and twenty
bucks just making a few stops. And this is what
I'm talking about. If you're somebody that is looking for
side money, this is an incredible opportunity. And it's even
(23:30):
I've got a bunch of realtors doing this because realtors
right now things are a little bit slow and this
is kind of a close cousin to real estate. But
if your work, if you work in real estate, you
might love this. You don't have to be in real
estate to do it, but there are a real estate
agent's appraisers, people that are involved with you know, insurance claims,
(23:52):
home inspectors, all those kind of people are in my course,
but you don't have to have any of those licenses
or backgrounds to be able to do this as well. Well.
All we're doing is we're taking pictures of real estate
for banks, mortgage companies, and property managers. And these gigs
pay anywhere from ten bucks to fifty dollars, and you
(24:15):
can kind of get a bunch of them together for yourself,
kind of batch them together and go out and do this,
you know, for two three hours. I've made as much
as two hundred and fifty bucks in like ninety minutes
doing this. But what I did was I put together
a beautiful website that has a dozen videos on it
that explains to you in detail how the opportunity works
(24:39):
and what you know, what it's like to do these gigs,
how much you make all of that, And this is
a free website that anybody can go to and check
it out. Just go to Realpicks dot us, not dot com,
but dot us realpicks dot us to get all the
details on this fantastic side gig. All right, So there's
(25:04):
a new poll out about Taylor Swift. So we talked
about Taylor Swift was endorsing Kamala Harris, right, and so
they had a poll and they determined, we talked about
this last week that actually the endorsement of Taylor Swift
of Kamala Harris actually hurt Kamala Harris. They determined that
(25:25):
coming out and supporting Kamala Harris actually caused less people
to want to vote for Kamala Harris. So Taylor Swift's
endorsement didn't really help all that much. Well, now there's
a new poll out and this poll is that Trump
is more like than Taylor Swift, and so that I
love that. So I thought we got to get that
(25:45):
one in here and then we'll close it out with this,
The Teamsters are not going to endorse Kamala Harris. And
this is the first time since nineteen ninety six that
the Teamsters Union is not endorsing the Democratic candidate for president.
I think it's it's just remarkable. And to make matters
(26:09):
worse for the Harris campaign, the rank and file members
of the Teamsters Union are supporting Trump by a margin
of sixty percent to thirty five percent for Harris. So
you know you're in trouble when you're losing the unions
and a lot of unions going for Trump. And it's
(26:32):
sort of unprecedented, but just another bit of handwriting on
the wall about where we're at with this election. And
I'm not worried. I know some people were worried at
the great numbers that Kamala had when she was, you know,
new into the race the first week or two. Eh,
the honeymoon's over. No reason to worry. I think Trump's
(26:53):
got this one in the bag. All right, Thanks so

You're listening to Jim Paris Live, your source for the
latest news on money, politics, prophecy, and preparedness, and now
your host, the editor in chief of Christian Money dot
com and the author of more than thirty books, Jim Paris.
Speaker 3 (00:58):
All right, hello everybody, welcome to the cast. Great to
have you with us. I am recording this one on
September twenty second, twenty twenty four, just to give you
a little bit of a context there. And I had
a great weekend. So it's a Sunday night here. I'm
just relaxing my condo up on the fourth floor here
at the European Village in Palm Coast, just relaxing tonight
(01:20):
and looking over my list of topics that I want
to talk about, but just so grateful for a wonderful
weekend and this is such a beautiful time of year
here in Florida, especially the contrast between what we just
got out of, which is you know, the July August
ninety five degrees, ninety eight degrees, super high humidity. But
(01:42):
it was a great weekend. So Saturday, I took a
picture taking assignment which only took me about five to
ten minutes to complete. And that's with this new course
I have. I'm gonna talk about a little bit more
later in the program, but Reelpicks dot Us is the course,
and I'm actually doing the work myself too, going out
(02:03):
and taking these pictures. And it was for a refinance,
and went down to the beach a beautiful home, took
some pictures, submitted that so that I could get paid.
Then I walked over to my favorite coffee shop, got
a coffee and a donut, walked over to the beach.
Just had a beautiful day Saturday. And then it got
(02:25):
better because Saturday night was the annual Octoberfest that we
play at Saint James Church. And a lot of people
know that I play the trumpet, that I used to
be a professional trumpet player. I used to be on
tour and I'm a part of a band here in
daytona beach called the Moonlighters. And I've been with this
(02:47):
band now, I think twenty one or twenty two years,
and we used to be an eighteen piece big band,
but we've kind of cut it down to about a
ten piece band now. But once a year week kind
of morphed the band into a German band, and that's
what we did last night. And it was so much
fun playing this oompah German music and the polkas and
(03:10):
all that. And it's at a church and it's a
fundraiser for their private school there and they have all
the women come out and make the most wonderful dinner,
you know, all the different kinds of German sausage and
the potato salad and the sour crowd and then the
German chocolate cake at the end of the night with
wonderful coffee. It was just so much fun. I mean, fantastic,
(03:34):
get paid to play the show, get a beautiful dinner.
So I just had a fantastic day on Saturday. But
what I've got to tell you about is my crazy
day on Friday, which is we have this new discount house.
This discount warehouse in town called Bejas and pomp Cooast
is a small town. I think our population is maybe
(03:57):
one hundred and ten or one hundred and twenty thousand,
I think that's right. So we're not a big town.
We're like thirty minutes north of Daytona, so Daytona is
a much bigger town. And then also to the north
of us is we're about thirty minutes south of Saint Augustine,
which is a bigger town as well. And then of
(04:17):
course you have Jacksonville, which is ginormous. But anyway, we
got this Bjay's Wholesale Club and they've been promoting this
for I don't know, maybe a year year and a
half that they were building this, and you drive by
it and you'd see all the construction and they'd have
the sign up and this is coming. And I was
curious about it because I've never been in a Bja's
(04:38):
wholesale club, and I've never you know, It's been probably
maybe twenty years since I've been in any kind of
a discount wholesale club, only because where I live there
isn't one. So even when I lived in Daytona, we
just went to Walmart usually. I think maybe one year
(04:59):
we had a s AM's membership, but generally we didn't
do the SAMs thing. We just did Walmart and then
the local grocery stores. But it was incredible. I had
to circle the parking lot. You got to see the
video on my Facebook. I had to circle the parking
lot maybe twenty times to get a spot, and it
was doggy dog and you could hardly walk in the store.
(05:21):
It was just there's so many people there. But I
really love this idea. In fact, I went back this
morning to BJ's because I need a little bit of
groceries and I was thinking, I wonder if it's still
as crowded as it was on the opening day, and
it wasn't. It wasn't crowded, and that was nice. I
was able to get a parking spot, I was able
(05:43):
to go in, and they've got this deal where you
get for a dollar sixty five, you get this giant
quarter pound all beef hot dog and then you get
a soda for a buck sixty five. And that's pretty nice.
So they've got a little seating area with a bunch
of tables, so you know, get yourself a hot dog
and a soda. And then I didn't buy too much.
(06:04):
You know, I live by myself, I'm single, so I
didn't buy too much, but what I did buy, I
have to tell you, is pretty darn close to half
the price of what I would have paid at publics.
So this is really going to be a game changer
for our small town. I mean, we do have all these,
(06:27):
and I really like all these prices. The problem is
all these is kind of a weird store. I don't
know if all these are like this, but our town,
oddly enough, has too all these, and the aisles are
so narrow that you really can't two people can't pass
each other with a cart in the aisles. I don't
even get a cart. I usually just have like two bags.
(06:48):
I have those insulated bags that they sell at all these.
So I like all these too. But I'm telling you,
the prices on a lot of things, not everything, but
on a lot of things are just incredible, Like I'm
talking about fifty percent off. So yeah, so I got
I got a little bit of groceries on Friday at
(07:09):
the grand opening, but that was mostly just about going
in there and taking a look because I haven't been
in one of these places in so long, and I
just I had a lot of fun. And so if
you want to see that video it is on my
Facebook page of me waiting into the to the mush
pit at vj's Ohsale Club. Really interesting. Okay, So Anderson
(07:31):
Cooper is admitting that he says, he admits that deep down,
quote unquote, he's skeptical about the twenty twenty four polls.
He says, I don't think I buy them, And you know,
I agree with what he's saying. And I know that
it's well known fact that Trump does underperform in polls.
(07:53):
He always does, because there's sort of that and I
think a lot of us have this feeling about Trump,
like we love Trump and his policies, but maybe we
don't want to be like too public about it because
there are some kind of edgy things about Trump. Some
people don't care. You know, they wear the make America
Great Again hat everywhere they go. And I have no
(08:15):
problem with people that want to be that public about it.
But I get it. I get it why some people
don't want to put the Trump sign in their yard.
And there's a certain percentage of people that in these
polls will not admit that they support Trump, that that's
who they're going to vote for, and so Trump always
underperforms in these polls. I mean, if if I got
a polling call, I would say I'm voting for Trump.
(08:37):
I mean, would I would admit it. But I get
it that there are some people that don't want to
be publicly, you know, attached to Trump. I understand that
he's you know, polarizing guy. But I think the honeymoon
is definitely over for Kamala and I'm really looking forward
to election day. I think this is going to be
(08:58):
transformative for country. And you know, it might have been
a good thing, honestly, that we had the four years
of this just horrible nightmare of double gas prices. And
I know they're saying twenty percent increase in groceries, it
was a lot more than that. I mean, I'm telling you,
(09:21):
I think some grocery items are up fifty percent or
seventy percent. Just just go and look at like the
meat section at a grocery store, and there's no way
that that's just twenty percent up from four years ago.
I mean, a tiny little package of ground beef is
going to cost you, you know, almost ten dollars, and
(09:44):
it's just crazy. I don't know how people are are
feeding families, But that's why you've got BJ's whosale club,
So there you go, and they're not a sponsor, but
maybe there was some good in that for people to
experience what that is all about, you know, to have
democrats in control, and so maybe that was good. And
(10:05):
maybe we'll get four years with Trump and then we'll
get another four years with Vance after four years with Trump.
So we'll just have to watch it. But I personally,
I'm with Anderson Cooper on this, maybe one of the
rare times that I agree with him. I'm not buying
these polls that everything is like neck and neck. It's
just not all right. The show is really growing again,
(10:28):
and why not right because I'm doing regular episodes and
it's been tough getting to do regular episodes, and I'm
working on a book and I've been talking about it
for two or three years about some of the things
that have happened to me over the last two or
three years that have really been really crushed my spirit
(10:48):
and put me some days into the deepest depression. And
I'm going to be writing about it. I know I've
said that before, and i know some of you know
a little bit about some of the things that have happened,
But sometimes it's just hard to get up and and
be positive and turn on the microphone. But I'll tell
you what motivates me more than anything is seeing all
(11:10):
the thousands of downloads and you guys are back, and
I am so excited that I have. I think I'm
on the on the other side of all of this
stuff that I've been struggling with and hoping that we're
just gonna, you know, keep knocking these out every week.
In particular, where we're doing very well are the live streams,
which you can now stream us on the Amazon devices
(11:33):
if you add the skill called Jim Paris Radio. If
you add that skill to your devices, you can then
voice activate and have that play and you can just
open up your device app. I don't want to say
the word A L e XA because in mine will
all start talking to me here in the middle of
the show. And then you can add that skill of
(11:56):
Jim Paris Radio. Okay, so we are going to Ireland.
I don't know if I gave any details on it
the last time we were together, but it's on June
the tenth of next year, June the tenth to the seventeenth.
We're going to Ireland and then after our seven days
(12:16):
in Ireland. There is an optional three additional days in
London if you want to choose to also go to London.
So we are doing a live zoom webinar to discuss
all the details of it on Tuesday night, so that
is the twenty fourth of September at seven thirty pm Eastern.
(12:40):
If you're interested in that Ireland trip, go to my Facebook.
James L. Paris is my name on Facebook. You can
go there. You can I can't accept any more friends.
I'm up to the maximum of five thousand friends, but
you can still be a follower and still get all
my content. But if you look there, there is a
link where you can sign up to be on that
(13:02):
Tuesday night informational meeting about the trip to Ireland and
what's exciting about this trip. We're gonna be going to
you know, all the major cities, you know, Doublin and
all that, but we're also going to be going to Castle's.
This is somewhat all inclusives. A lot of meals are
involved are paid for already as part of the trip.
(13:25):
The excursions are included for the most part as part
of the trip. But we're going to get into all
those details on Tuesday, and we're going to be able
to take up to twenty people to Ireland. And I'm
really looking forward to this, not only because I've never
been to Ireland, but just to hang out with you guys,
to be able to get together with my podcast listeners
(13:47):
and to go on this adventure. And so I'm definitely
gonna do Ireland in the extra three days in London,
and I hope you'll join us. So check that out
on the Facebook page. So as was announced I think
about three weeks ago, Trump says, if elected, he's going
to put Elon Musk in charge of a so called
(14:09):
Government Efficiency Committee to be able to kind of tear
down and look at, you know, how the government runs
and what can we do to make it more efficient.
And there's got to be a lot of ways, right,
I mean, all the different agencies, so much fat in
these agencies, and the pay that people get and the
(14:29):
retirement that they get, and I mean, God bless them,
but I mean there's got to be a bunch of
ways to save money. And here's kind of example, you know,
exhibit A, which is Elon Musk has announced that within
two years he will have five onmanned spaceships that will
be launched to Mars. And I mean, just think about
(14:53):
how fast this guy is moving with space exploration and
what he's able to do with just a fraction of
the budget that the government has, that NASA has, and
how much faster and further he is going. It is
really remarkable. And I would love to see what he
could do to say, reform the IRS, just as an example.
(15:17):
I mean, there's so many agencies that need to be reformed,
of course, the FBI and the Justice Department, the IRS,
there's just so many I think over staffed agencies and
efficiencies could definitely be implemented. This story this is real,
but you're not going to think it is because you
(15:39):
have to ask yourself who could possibly vote this way?
But this is from Fox News. One hundred and fifty
eight Democrats vote against a bill to deport illegal immigrants
who commit sex crimes. Isn't that insane? Who are these people?
(16:00):
I mean, I guess I get it on one level.
If you are for opening up the borders, as insane
as that is, maybe in some you know, like liberal context,
I can understand that, and you're hoping that that will
bring all these new voters in and help the Democrats
that obviously that's what the hopes are. But this, this
(16:24):
is like a bridge too far. One hundred and fifty
eight Democrats vote against a bill to deport illegal immigrants
who commit sex crimes. Who could possibly want these individuals
here that are committing sex crimes. I don't know, but
(16:45):
maybe maybe some parts of the country are are getting
a little bit more reasonable. I was going to say California,
but I've got another story here about California and crime
that I'm going to jump through real quick, because this
is one that I've got a couple of stories today
about crime in California, but this one is pretty amazing.
(17:08):
So there is a guy I gotta find this story
here because I just handed up on my screen. He
is known as the Pillowcase rapist in California, and he
is being released from prison after having raped I believe
(17:31):
forty women is his track record, his rap sheet, forty women.
This guy is raped, and I think he is right
now seventy three or seventy forty years old, and California
has this insane policy. They call it like an elderly
(17:55):
release program something like that. I don't know the exact term,
But the idea is, you know, once a criminal gets
into their seventies, we're kind of almost like, whatever they've done,
we're going to let them out. We're gonna have this
like mercyful release for them so that they can live
out their final days in the sunshine. I don't know.
(18:18):
I mean, what happens to somebody like this who's in
their seventies, who has forty rapes that are connected to them?
Where's this guy gonna work? I mean, how's he going
to pay rent? I mean, how is this going to work?
How is this possibly gonna work out? And just because
he's in his seventies doesn't mean he's us He's not dangerous, right,
(18:40):
I mean, he could get a gun. There's a lot
of things you can still do if you're in your
seventies to harm other people. And I don't know, maybe
I'm just pollyannish, but I would think that after you've
raped forty women that you would basically have given up
your right to freedom for the rest of your life.
But that appears to not be the case. The Pillowcase rapist.
(19:02):
I mean, this guy's actually got like his own criminal
superhero name. He is the pillowcase rapist that is his moniker,
and they're considering no. It says they have already decided
they're going to release him, the pillowcase rapist. And San
(19:23):
Francisco is trying something a little bit different to fight crime.
They've got like a social media outreach where they're taking
their police officers and they're putting them in giant chicken
costumes and having them walk around in the neighborhoods. They're
patrolling in chicken costumes. Now, I wish I was joking,
(19:50):
but this is real. They're actually and there's a picture
of this online if you want to google it. They're
they're wearing chicken costumes. Now, the police in San Francisco,
and we continue with more news in San Francisco. There's
a story out now that San Francisco has just recently
decided that they've had enough of the homeless. They want
(20:12):
to get rid of the homeless. I mean, this is
a city where there actually is a job title where
you are to walk around all day and clean up
defecation on the streets and sidewalks. That is actually like
a job because people drop their pants and do their
(20:36):
business on the sidewalk and in the streets, yes in
San Francisco, but San Francisco, and they were putting them
in hotels and literally started driving out. All these major
chains were leaving. I think it was Walgreens and Target.
(20:56):
Stars just they've had enough. They want to get out
of town. And the business owners are basically through also
the smaller neighborhood businesses that they can't operate. It's just
not safe. It's on savory. The sidewalks are covered with tents.
So the story is that San Francisco is trying to
clean up a little bit. I mean it's kind of
(21:16):
a day late and a dollar short, right, I mean,
you're basically the city of San Francisco is probably one
of the most beautiful cities in the world if you've
never been there. The goldiegate Bridge, the fog coming in
across the Pacific Ocean in San Francisco Bay, it is
just a breathlessly gorgeous place. But it has been destroyed
(21:41):
and it may it may just be too late. It
may just be too late for them to try and
turn this around. So millions of Gulf Coast residents are
being warned of another tropical storm, and this one is huge,
and I saw some pictures of it this after and
they're kind of showing that as many of these golf
(22:04):
storms are, it can kind of go like more to
the west, or it could go more to the east,
so like Florida could be hit, or it could be
back again to sort of the you know, upper part
of Texas or even there into like New Orleans area, Alabama.
(22:25):
You know, it could be in there as well. But
so we've got this storm and we're right now just
entering the heart of hurricane season. It's the time of
year where people in Florida were watching the news. But
there's two additional storms other than this one, and those
two storms are still in the Atlantic. None of these
storms have been named yet, but we're looking at this
(22:48):
some one in the golf and it does look scary.
Reelpicks dot Us, one of my real pick students, shared
with me this story last week. He had a few
hours drive to visit a family member. He lives in Iowa.
He needed to drive a few hours over to Missouri
(23:09):
to visit a family member and he did reel picks
gigs along the way. It made one hundred and twenty
bucks just making a few stops. And this is what
I'm talking about. If you're somebody that is looking for
side money, this is an incredible opportunity. And it's even
(23:30):
I've got a bunch of realtors doing this because realtors
right now things are a little bit slow and this
is kind of a close cousin to real estate. But
if your work, if you work in real estate, you
might love this. You don't have to be in real
estate to do it, but there are a real estate
agent's appraisers, people that are involved with you know, insurance claims,
(23:52):
home inspectors, all those kind of people are in my course,
but you don't have to have any of those licenses
or backgrounds to be able to do this as well. Well.
All we're doing is we're taking pictures of real estate
for banks, mortgage companies, and property managers. And these gigs
pay anywhere from ten bucks to fifty dollars, and you
(24:15):
can kind of get a bunch of them together for yourself,
kind of batch them together and go out and do this,
you know, for two three hours. I've made as much
as two hundred and fifty bucks in like ninety minutes
doing this. But what I did was I put together
a beautiful website that has a dozen videos on it
that explains to you in detail how the opportunity works
(24:39):
and what you know, what it's like to do these gigs,
how much you make all of that, And this is
a free website that anybody can go to and check
it out. Just go to Realpicks dot us, not dot com,
but dot us realpicks dot us to get all the
details on this fantastic side gig. All right, So there's
(25:04):
a new poll out about Taylor Swift. So we talked
about Taylor Swift was endorsing Kamala Harris, right, and so
they had a poll and they determined, we talked about
this last week that actually the endorsement of Taylor Swift
of Kamala Harris actually hurt Kamala Harris. They determined that
(25:25):
coming out and supporting Kamala Harris actually caused less people
to want to vote for Kamala Harris. So Taylor Swift's
endorsement didn't really help all that much. Well, now there's
a new poll out and this poll is that Trump
is more like than Taylor Swift, and so that I
love that. So I thought we got to get that
(25:45):
one in here and then we'll close it out with this,
The Teamsters are not going to endorse Kamala Harris. And
this is the first time since nineteen ninety six that
the Teamsters Union is not endorsing the Democratic candidate for president.
I think it's it's just remarkable. And to make matters
(26:09):
worse for the Harris campaign, the rank and file members
of the Teamsters Union are supporting Trump by a margin
of sixty percent to thirty five percent for Harris. So
you know you're in trouble when you're losing the unions
and a lot of unions going for Trump. And it's
(26:32):
sort of unprecedented, but just another bit of handwriting on
the wall about where we're at with this election. And
I'm not worried. I know some people were worried at
the great numbers that Kamala had when she was, you know,
new into the race the first week or two. Eh,
the honeymoon's over. No reason to worry. I think Trump's
(26:53):
got this one in the bag. All right, Thanks so
