Kevin Gordon in for Brian Thomas -- 11/12/24

Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:10):
Five minutes after five o'clock, Happy Tuesday. I'm laughing at
this story at the top of the are I gotta
get more information on that. But by the way, the
promo into this about elections and people being happy and
thrilled and Donald Trump is a legend. I couldn't agree more.
I mentioned yesterday and it's still going on today. I

(00:31):
cannot wipe this smile off my face. And you know, normally, okay,
as a conservative throughout all my life, you know, you
always get excited about something, whether it's a you know,
a sporting event, participation in a sporting event, and you
want to win, you want to defeat the other team,

(00:52):
and so on, and after the initial celebration or whatever,
then it's kind of like, okay, we absorbed that, and
then off to the next thing. And with me, it's
always been okay, we've accomplished that, now move on. You
may mention, you may remember a couple of times I've
mentioned the play and the movie seventeen seventy six, and

(01:14):
if you're not familiar with it, there is a it's
a musical about the signing of the Declaration of Independence,
and in my opinion, it's one of the best plays
I've ever seen. I saw it when I was like
thirteen years old in New York, and I'm going, I
don't need to go into that right now, but or
how that all happen? But every year I watched that movie,
and when it came out in nineteen seventy two, I

(01:36):
believe is when the movie came out, and I watch
it every year, and I don't understand how people don't
like the movie. But if you go, if you watch it,
there's this. What John Adams is trying to do is
to try to get the Congress to actually debate the
independence issue. And every time he brings it up, they

(01:58):
defeat it, and every time, you know, so then they
decide that they're going to have somebody else propose and
all this and it comes down to where they actually
get to debate it, and when the vote passed, everybody's
sitting there and they're throwing their papers up in the ear.
They're hugging each other there there. You know what the
you know back then would be comparable to a high five.
They're hugging. You know, this is great, and all this

(02:20):
sort of stuff. And then they go through the wranglings
of all this when they get to the final vote
and they actually pass the declaration of independence. Nothing. You
could hear a pin drop, and it focused on John
Adams and he's sitting there and it's like he just
sits there and it's it's done. And almost the gravity

(02:42):
of the situation hit him at that time, and he
realized that, Okay, now the work begins. And with this
election Tuesday, well, early Wednesday morning, watching the results come in,
and at one five a m. I saw that. I mean,
I was you four. I was happy. I was thrilled.
When I saw his speech and everything, I thought, oh,

(03:03):
this is great. When my wife went to bed, I
mentioned this a couple of times already. I went out
to the living room and I said, you know what
I got to do it. You know, I got to
flip on MSNBC, not flip off, but flip on MSNBC,
CNN and whatever. And listening to them jumped through all
the hoops. They wound up not calling the election until

(03:27):
five forty five in the morning, almost what four hours
after Fox News and AP had already done it, and
so they were so reluctant. And then once I was up,
I watched I had to watch Morning Joe, and then
I had to, you know, go to bed for a
couple hours, and then got up and watched the view,
and I thought, Okay, this is going to be sour grapes.

(03:47):
It's going to be you know, it's going to be
a one day thing. But over the last week now,
it has been non stop just insanity and the excuse
is and the blaming and not only that, but you know,
still the criticism of how can you elect this dictator

(04:08):
and the stuff that he's done. It's it's like they
won't accept the outcome and they will not accept the
the the blame for anything. And it's it's almost like
I said, I would love to just you know, sit
to the point, get to the point and say it's done. Now,

(04:28):
let's get to work. But the insanity on the other side,
I watch it and then it just makes me laugh
and gets a bigger grint on my face. And then
the more I think about it, the happier I get,
and so on, and it's just unbelievable. I saw it
just a headline before we came on the air, something

(04:50):
about that. Now the Democrats are wondering if with Elon
Musk and Donald Trump, if they stole the election via
starlink to go in and change the votes in order
to come up with this victory. And I thought, you know,
the first twenty four hours, what we heard some of

(05:10):
the stuff was, well, especially from Kamala Harrison, you know,
it's going to be a peaceful transfer of power. We're
not going to do to them what that basically we're
not going to do to them what they did to us,
and that we're not going to challenge this. And all
before the election, they were saying that, you know, there's
going to be election integrity and there's going to be

(05:32):
nobody that's going to be able to question this. But
automatically and miraculously, once it didn't go in their way,
all of a sudden, now they want to question the
election integrity. And I go back to twenty sixteen, and
there was a video about i think two weeks before
the election, and Donald Trump was talking about some irregularities

(05:55):
that were going around the country and he was talking about, well,
you know, if the election is fair, then you know,
we'll accept the outcome and this type of thing. And
Barack Obama was i think coming off the Rose Garden
or whatever in front of the White House in the
yard there, and he said that to even imagine that
there's any way that this election can be interfered with,

(06:18):
because you have fifty different states, fifty different types of
you know, fifty different electors, and each individual state run
their election the way they run it, there is no
ability to get into it. It was saying, basically, it
is impossible to rig the election. And then he goes

(06:42):
on and then he finishes with My advice to Donald
Trump is go out and look for votes and stop
talking about the election. And actually it was whining about
the election, and then all of a sudden in twenty sixteen,
once he won, then all of a sudden, the election
was rigged the Russians, that Russian interference in the whole

(07:02):
nine yards there, and then when we questioned it in
twenty twenty, which I think legitimately so, and I am
still not convinced. And one of the things I hope
the administration and incoming administration does is investigate what happened
in twenty twenty, just to make sure that there was
no voter fraud, that there was no shenanigans going on,

(07:24):
just to shut people like me up, folks, I want
to be shut up on that issue, not anything else.
But I want somebody to say, here is definitive proof
that that election was not rigged. This didn't happen, that
didn't happen, that didn't happen. Don't give me this garbage
about every time these things have come up in a
court of law it's been dismissed. That's a bload of crap.

(07:46):
Because part of the thing of you know, when they
say you can indict a ham sandwich, when they say that,
you can go to court, and most of these judges
do not want to throw out a case before it's her.
They want to hear the evidence, they want to do
some of the preliminary There is no such thing anymore.
It seems as a directed verdict or I can't remember

(08:09):
the term now, but where they don't allow the charge
to go forward or the case, the lawsuit or whatever
to go forward because judges are elected and they're afraid
of being overturned on appeal, so they generally let the
case go forward and so on. But in every case
with this election integrity boom thrown out of court, no
evidence or lack of standing or any of this source.

(08:31):
I want to be shut up on this. I want
them to prove to us. And now because Trump one
and one overwhelmingly all of a sudden, now we want
to talk about election denial, we want to talk about rigging,
we want to talk about unfair tactics, and we want
to talk about voter fraud or changing the elections due
to starlink and all that sort of stuff. And to me,

(08:55):
it is amazing. And again it keeps putting that smile
back on my I have to laugh at these people.
I have to laugh at the fact that they're doing
all this finger pointing, and I also have to laugh
at the fact that they can't reconcile what actually happened.
And I started seeing last night where they're starting to

(09:16):
blame Biden. Well, they've been blaming Biden, They've been blaming
Kamala Harris, They've been blaming the campaign. They've been blaming
the people that came in from Biden's team to Kammalist
team and Kamalis team fighting with the Obama people, the
donors saying that they were lied to, and all kinds

(09:36):
of things going on, and that isn't and that isn't
the whole story. And yet and then one of the
things I'm concerned about is that as far as the
Republicans are concerned, they're treating this as though, oh, the
Democratic Party is dead, They're never going to rise from
the ashes. And all this in my lifetime, I know

(09:58):
of at least three and instances back in the Goldwater
days when they said the Republican Party was done. They
said the Republican Party was done in eight and twelve
when Obama won, They said that the Democratic Party was
done in twenty sixteen, when when when Trump won, And
there's been all these things where they said, all right,
this is the final straw, that party is dead, and

(10:21):
every time they've been proven wrong. And I don't want
people to get out over their skis now and say
that the Republicans are going to be in power for
the next decades. There's decades to come. No, that ain't
gonna happen unless you get down to work and do
the things that you say you're going to do and

(10:41):

To the phones, we go, Linda, fifty five kr S.
Thanks for calling. How are you again this morning?

Speaker 2 (11:56):
H I'm real well, how are you good?

Speaker 1 (11:58):
Good? Good?

Speaker 2 (11:59):
It's still I still have a smile on my face.
I am so proud, so proud of the American people.

Speaker 3 (12:04):
Yes, for sure, I call again because there's a snap
election tomorrow or a new Speaker of the House, and
we have got.

Speaker 1 (12:16):
To Senate Majority letter.

Speaker 2 (12:21):
Sorry, Senate Majority Leader, and we can't just ignore this.
It is one of the most important calls we can make.
Absolutely we need to have a conservative in there, and
in my opinion, Rick Scott is the only one.

Speaker 1 (12:41):
Well, you know, yes, were you following this last night
watching some of the news reports on this or you know?

Speaker 2 (12:48):
You know? I don't even I haven't even watched TV.

Speaker 1 (12:51):
Okay, okay, we were.

Speaker 2 (12:53):
Gone last night, So no, I didn't.

Speaker 1 (12:55):
Oh so you're so you have a life.

Speaker 2 (12:58):
We do, don't we.

Speaker 4 (13:01):
How did you do that?

Speaker 2 (13:02):
I don't know. I guess you get old and ept
before in the morning and you get placed.

Speaker 1 (13:07):
Yeah. No, I don't have a life outside of Uh well,
I've just followed I've followed politics way too much. But okay,
here's what I know at this point that apparently those
senators elect that had been elected but they haven't been

(13:28):
sworn in yet, are going to be allowed to vote.
That's one of the hurdles. The other thing is is
that they were taking some polling I guess, initial data,
and they had come up with I guess thun Cornyn
and then Rick Scott, And then as people started talking
about that, and I think possibly the Trump people got involved,

(13:51):
had started making some calls, Rick Scott started getting closer
to the top of the of the heap. And as
it stands now, or what I'm hearing, is that that
they again they're going to allow the senator elects to
go ahead and vote, which is interesting because Bob Casey,

(14:16):
what is that. David McCormick in Pennsylvania is the senator
elect but they haven't, well, Schumer is not, even though
the race has been called, he's not recognizing him as
the winner and not allowing him to participate in this.
They bring the new senators and congressman in for an

(14:38):
orientation and he's not allowed to participate in that, but
he is going to be allowed to participate in the
Senate majority leader vote. And I can't. I can't. I
can't imagine a situation because apparently you need twenty seven
votes in order to win, and I can't. You know,
we always have and this is what I do. Linda,

(14:59):
just excuse myself here for a moment. My wife calls
this where I keep interrupting myself, where I start off
on an idea and I changed thoughts. So I'm interrupting
myself here with you need twenty seven votes, and I
know that in the past, every time there's been like
a vote that you needed all the Republicans, there's usually

(15:20):
one or two, possibly three, that go off the reservation
and will vote with the Democrats. So I can't believe
that there would be twenty seven of those that would
go against what Donald Trump and what his people, and
and especially JD Vance because I guess he's still I

(15:43):
guess I don't know if he gets to vote or not,
because no, they haven't replaced him yet, so Bernie Moreno
would be there from Ohio, and I guess jd Vance
would still have a vote. So I can't imagine that
with the landslide victory that it was, that Connell would
get his way. And I would hope that McConnell is

(16:04):
smart enough, because like it or not, Mitch McConnell is
one hell of a political animal and can manipulate things
pretty well. I can't imagine him wanting his legacy to
be to go down in flames on this vote. So
I have a feeling that the cooler or the better,

(16:24):
the Conservative heads will prevail and that we will get
Rick Scott as majority leader. I don't understand that, like you,
I don't understand why this has to be an early
vote or a flash vote like this, but I'm keeping
my fingers crossed, and of course we need to continue.
Anybody that you know, in the sound of my voice
and our voices, call your senator, tell them what you

(16:48):
want done.

Speaker 2 (16:50):
I will also risk maybe Ohio should be calling Mike
Dwine and put pressure on him to get a conservative
senator to replace JD.

Speaker 1 (17:02):
Vans right now last night because you were out having
fun and I was doing that heavy lifting for you.
But what I heard last night, right before I went
to bed, is that the name has floated, that Vivek
Ramaswami is being floated as far as replacing JD. Vance. Now,

(17:24):
I would have expected him to have been a cabinet
position or something along those lines, but very interesting. It's
it's going to be. This is why I don't I
don't need reality television. Politics is reality enough. Flinda, Thank
you so much for the call, and we're up against
the break. Phone numbers five one, three, seven, four, nine,

(18:29):
fifty five karosee the talk station, five thirty in the morning.
Fifty five Karosee the talk station. Let's do some local
headlines here. I saw this story. Well, actually Joe printed

(18:52):
this off for me this morning, and local headlines and whatever,
and actually I got to give it a little tip
of the hat here to the since I enquire they
actually committed some journalism here. He is Moler High School,
Jerry Fout dead at eighty nine. The man had built
and I'm going to read this most of this because
it is just a fantastic article. And he was an

(19:13):
amazing man, having come down here to Cincinnati in nineteen
seventy one to go to Xavier University and then playing
on the Xavier football team, and then later on in
junior year's, senior year and whatever, going down to the
CINCINNTI YMCA Central Parkway YMCA, I met a lot of
people in the Greater Cincinnati area, and one of the

(19:34):
guys that I met down there was an assistant coach
in the era, guy by the name of Steve Clawnie,
and just a bunch of amazing people and guys that
bench pressed the heck out of the world down there,
and they all talked about Jerry Foust and the course
being in the Cincinnati area in nineteen seventy five, seventy
one through seventy five and down here ever since. Jerry

(19:57):
Fous was just one of the idols here and always
went national titles as well as state titles in high
school football. And then of course he went on to
which is a leap that I can't imagine anybody else
ever making. I can't imagine anybody today making the leap
from being a high school football coach to going and

(20:20):
being the head football coach of a top ten football
team in the college ranks. And I think part of
that move and part of that that wound up being
a failure, was one of those things that didn't defeat
Jerry Fows but made him even stronger. They talk about
the man who built a small football program on Montgomery

(20:42):
Road to a national high school powerhouse in the mid seventies.
Died Monday at age of eighty nine. Jerry Fouss was
moll Or High School first head coach. He was so
successful that he made unprecedented move, of course, to the
Notre Dame. They talk about his record at Notre Dame
being thirty and twenty six one. They talk about his statistics.
I think it's not in this article or the portion

(21:04):
of the article, but I think his record at Moeller
was something like one seventy nine, one seventy six and
only lost fourteen games over the entire time of his
coaching there at Molar, and everybody talked about what a
fantastic motivational speecher speaker he was, how he always got
the best out of his players. In this article they

(21:27):
talk about his reputation in Ohio, where after he left
Notre Dame wound up coaching at the University of Akron
for another nine years. And they talk about how he
was not tied to technology. The most he did as
far as technology was a flip phone, and it reminded
me of the stories about Joe Paterno of how he

(21:51):
never had a cell phone and he never had a
pushbuton phone he always had one of those rotary dial
phones and they would say, well, why do you have that,
and he said, well, when I'm making a phone call,
the time it takes me to make the phone call
to you know, dial the number and so on, literally
dial the number, it gives me an opportunity to think

(22:14):
about how I'm going to start a conversation. And I've
noticed a lot of times sometimes when I'm calling somebody,
you get so used to them either going to voicemail
or something, and when they actually pick up, you got
like a five second drag there of where it's like,
how do I start the conversation type of thing, And
I think it's the age of technology that we're in.

(22:36):
But anyway, a kind of a side note there, but
they talked about, you know, he talked about how people
would listen to him because he's not all about success.
He said in a two thousand and one Sports Illustrated interview,
They'll listen to somebody who failed, because most people are
going to fail at some point in time, and it's
what you do with your failure and how you rebound
from that. So I was just an amazing man and

(22:59):
I never got the opportunity to meet him directly, but
a lot of people that I know knew him, loved him,
and again one of those people in Cincinnati that is
those Cincinnati icons of people that you just when you
think of Cincinnati, these are the kinds of people that
come to mind. So a sad day. Eighty nine years old,

(23:21):
a long life, but very active career and very successful
at Moeller High School. Jerry fous dead at eighty nine.

Speaker 1 (24:53):
Five thirty nine in the morning, Kevin Gordon in for
Brian Thomas fifty five KR see the talk station. Corey
is up next on our phone. Thanks so much for calling.
How are you this morning?

Speaker 6 (25:04):
Yeah, don't a greedy ye A quick question. You was
talking about mister combying a political machine, which I agree,
and he has been outspoken against Trump in the past,
which I think he's doing it again. He's putting the
dominoes in place to sabotage the Trump presidency when it
comes in. Rick Scott is no conservative. As a governor,
he passed red flag laws in Florida, he passed gun

(25:27):
control in Florida, the same thing with the other three.
And my question is why are those our choice? Why
is not Rampaul an option? And I have not heard
an answer of why those are our only options.

Speaker 1 (25:43):
Well, it'll be interesting to see how that plays out
now in terms of some of the things that Rick
Scott has done, and of course I don't know all
of his record. I do know some of the times
that he's been on and I probably should know better,
But on the times that he's been on Fox and
some of the areas of expertise that he's been on

(26:03):
talking there has been impressive from that standpoint. But I
guess I got to do a caveat there because I
can remember back in two thousand and three when I
was in Richmond, Indiana, and the congressman from that area
at the time was a fellow by the name of
Mike Pench you may have heard of, and I had
him on the program several times, and I mentioned to

(26:26):
him at one time I would hope, with his conservative credentials,
that at some time he would run for president or
at least be on the ticket with somebody. And I
missed the ball on that one, because even though with
that conservative background that he had, he was a big
disappointment come January sixth of twenty twenty one. And so again,

(26:48):
you know, you never know how somebody is going to
be when you know they talk to walk, talk to talk,
and walk the walk until they're actually have a track record. Now,
I guess I'll have to look in Rick Scott's uh uh,
you know background. As you said, red red flag was
bother me. But again depending upon well, I guess within

(27:10):
the severity of red flag laws, there are I guess
degrees of red flag laws or are.

Speaker 6 (27:19):
There Well, Rick Scott's red flag laws they bypassed due process,
so they automatically strip you of your rights, and he
has a track record as governor doing it. If you
look on X Dana Losh, she has been excuse me
every day thenly outspoken against Rick Scott, uh trying to
expose him as a rhino that he is and uh

(27:42):
crowan from Texas. He passed the gun control with Biden.
He was the bi partners who vote.

Speaker 1 (27:49):
Yeah, I know that I know about Corn and I
know about Thune, but I'm I guess I'm not as
as well versed in in Rick Scott. Now again, I
mean it depends on where you're getting you know, not
only where you're getting her information, but who's presenting it.
I have to tell you that I'm not a big
fan of Dana Loshe. There's certain things that she said

(28:10):
and certain things that she's presented that I kind of
scratch my head. But then again, I have that problem
with almost every politician at some point in time, because
you know there's going to be one issue that they're
not going to be totally on board with. And I
keep trying to tell myself the same thing that Ronald
Reagan said. You know, when somebody agrees with you seventy

(28:32):
five percent of the time, they're a seventy five percent friend,
not a twenty five percent enemy, depending upon what those
twenty five percents are, though sometimes so in my.

Speaker 6 (28:42):
Opinion, if you're against any due process or any constitutional right,
you're not a friend of mine. So we can disagree
on the smaller things, but those are too These are
too big to a disagree.

Speaker 1 (28:53):
That is a big one. But and I got to
say that I've known people in the past, okay, that
there are especially like in Kentucky for instance, I guess
if somebody does a what is it, I'm drawing a
blank here where you know, somebody needs a you can't

(29:17):
go within one hundred feet of somebody or something protective order,
protect protection order, and it's called it's also called something else,
I think. But anyway, but the restraining order, thank you,
but thank you, Joe, I appreciate it. But the restraining order,
those are so easy to get, and there is no

(29:37):
due process with that. Basically it's somebody filing an affidavit.
And in the state of Kentucky already, if a restraining
order is done, you can take somebody's weapon. And that
came about with a friend of mine who's an attorney
and he has a friend or a client that was
a private investigator, and the wife, through no reason at all,

(29:59):
just hurt the guy put this restraining order on him,
and he lost his concealed carry license, lost his gun,
and of course that damaged his career. And so there's
always those kinds of things in there. I agree with
you there should be more due process. But I also
think too that there are certain instances where you need

(30:21):
to take some of these things seriously because trying to
adjudicate something over a twenty four to forty hour period
of time, a lot of damage can be done in
that period of time. So it's a delicate tightrope to
walk when you're talking about those kinds of issues.

Speaker 1 (32:35):
Five point fifty in the morning, Kevin Gordon in for
Brian Thomas, fifty five krs the talk station. Kind of
finishing up that phone call kind of piqued my interest
talking to Cory in the last segment, and I went
online and I started digging up some stuff on Rick Scott,
and you know, I see, you know, I'm just basically
on the headlines. I'm not able to get, you know,

(32:56):
in that short period of time, being able to get
up his whole voting record, what he voted on and
all this. But Heritage Action is I think according to
their thing as one hundred let me see lifetime score
of ninety five something they said in the headline, something
like one hundred and eighteen point two. I don't know
how you get one hundred and eighteen percent voting record,
and I started pulling up something having to do with

(33:18):
maybe an RA or gun arms of America. But to
kind of tail off on something that he said was that,
you know, there's certain things that you you know, certain
candidates and certain politicians that you like and don't like.
I would be willing to throw on, you know, to
throw out the idea of I'm sure that if I

(33:39):
were to say right now and have do kind of
a brief poll in terms of Mike Huckabee, if I said,
what do you what are your feelings about Mike Huckabee,
I'm sure that there'd be a probably, I would guess
a vast majority of people that would call in and
say that Mike Huckaby is a true conservative, a great

(34:00):
and all this sort of stuff. But I at least
have a little bit of knowledge of that because it
was down in Little Rock, Arkansas, doing a radio program
down there for a little over a year, and he
was anything but conservative as the governor down there, and
so there when I see him and I hear him,
and I hear his conservative talking and I know how

(34:22):
he acted as governor, I kind of have to chuckle
at that, because his conservative credentials that he claims don't
seem to match with some of the stuff that he
did when he was governor down there. And my wife
and I have talked about this, and like most people
that have ever been in radio, you kind of once
in a while get escort well shown the door, so

(34:45):
to speak. And I got shown the door down in
Little Rock, Arkansas. And I think a lot of it
had to do with my outspoken criticism of Mike Huckabee,
because from what I understand, the ratings were halfway decent.
They weren't, you know, they were as good or a
little bit less maybe than the guy that preceded me,
who was still the station manager at the time, or

(35:07):
the program director. And so as far as that was concerned,
I don't think that was an issue. And there was
really no other issue that could have happened other than
the fact that I was a harsh critic of Governor
Mike Huckabee. And so my wife is convinced that that's
what happened, but we don't ever have any proof of that.
And I would love I mean, because I'm not And again,

(35:27):
it's not one of these things where I'd like to, like,
you know, in your face type of thing. I would
just love to be in a room sometime with Mike
Huckabee and go up and introduce myself and just look
at his eyes and see if what his reaction was
or would be, because I'm pretty sure he would remember me,

(35:47):
and if he, you know, had anything to do with it,
you could probably see a little bit in his eye.
But that's just kind of my personal thing. And I
don't hold a grudge because you know, when again we're
going back to Jerry Faust, when you have certain things
that you do and you take this turn in your
life and you go in this direction or this direction,
you wind up to where you are today, and if

(36:09):
you're not happy with where you are today, then that's
where you can possibly reflect back and say, gee, if
I had done this different. You know, you've always got that.
But then you look on the bright side and all
the great things that are on in your life, all
the blessings that you've had, all the people that you
were with now, and that never would have happened had

(36:30):
that not happened down a little rock, Arkansas. As a
matter of fact, I probably wouldn't be here today, which
I probably shouldn't say that because there's probably some of
my frenemies out there that say, yeah, I wish you
would have stayed down on a little rock, Arkansas. But anyway,
it's one of those things. And would I think Mike Huckabee,
would I support him as president? I doubt it. I
think there are people that are more qualified for him.

(36:53):
But you know, a lot of people seem to like
him and that type of thing. So it's one of
those examples where Rick Scott maybe not be Corey's guy,
and I have to dig a little bit deeper into
Rick Scott and what his stance are and a lot
of these issues. But again, uh, nobody's perfect. And as
Ronald Reagan said, you know, seventy five percent friend or
seventy five percent of the things you agree on makes
you a seventy five percent front. Anyway, coming up top

Speaker 7 (37:46):
I'll righty.

Speaker 1 (37:53):
Six minutes after six o'clock. You know, it's not Brian
this morning. As I mentioned, if you look at my
Facebook page, every time I come in, I usually put
usually but most of the time, actually all the time
I put a folk posting on Facebook as to who
my guests are and that I'm going to be on
and so on, And today is no different. Really, it's
we got one guest and that's it. In the eight

(38:13):
oh five at eight oh five, we got Matthew Boyle.
It's going to be bright bart News Washington Bureau Chief,
and looking forward to talking to him. There's a whole
laundry list of stories that we can possibly talk about.
Looking forward to that. Now. As far as Brian is concerned,
I mentioned on my Facebook page, I believe that he's
you know, binge watching on Hallmark Movies, you know Hallmark
back on I think it was October the eighteenth started

(38:36):
running what was it, brand new movies on Wednesday or Thursday, Friday,
and Saturday and Sunday for their Christmas specials. And I
think they have thirty two brand new movies, and of
course they're now up to the point where they're doing
Christmas movies twenty four to seven. And so when I'm
not all watching politics, and when I'm not doing show

(38:57):
prep for ATM or for the show here I am,
I'm doing myfe share of binge watching on Hallmark movies.
And I think Brian got winto that and said, you know,
I'm kind of missing out on something, so he decided
to take a couple of days off and binge watch
on some Hallmark movies. There. So this news of this
story at the top of the hour. This is the
second time, you know, the news department has covered this,

(39:19):
and it's interesting. This purin a plant and Claremont County
evacuated after bomb threat. And they start off the pre
Ina pet care plant in Williamsburg Township was evacuated Monday
morning after a bomb threat was made against the plant.
Claremont County said that the press release nine to twelve
and so on and so forth, that they said there's
a inside a porta potty, there's a bomb inside. Now,

(39:42):
when you get towards the end of the story, it
says there are no leads in regarding the source of
the threat. It's in a location that's not a security
camera around there. The plant went, but the plant is
under construction, which means that this is why this porta
potty is on site there they talk about. The plant
was announced back in twenty twenty. Not clear as partially

(40:03):
or fully operational. Hiring has begun for jobs at the facility.
Peer in her website said there was about three hundred
jobs in total by the end of twenty twenty four
at the site. Construction was supposed to be concluded and
they were supposed to be operational in twenty twenty three.
This is the first newly built factory since nineteen seventy five. Now,

(40:23):
this reminds me of a story several couple of months
ago where I was I think Joe told we were
talking about this off air, and I think he told
me there was a home depot where somebody came walking
out of the home depot bathroom and somebody was walking in.
He goes, i'd be careful and there's a bomb in there,
or I just left a bomb in there, is something

(40:44):
like that, and they called the police detain the guy,
and as it turned out, it's a colloquialism or a
joke that hey, I left a bomb in the toilet,
you know, kind of like the stink bombs type of thing.
I wonder if, by the and you know, it's one
of those things of where if you wrote the note

(41:05):
as a joke and then all of a sudden, the
plant is closed, they're evacuating people. There are cop cars everywhere,
there are people. You know, they set up to nine
hundred people were on the property at the time they
cleared it out, and so send everybody home that day,
which kind of tells me that there's probably still some

(41:26):
operations going on there in certain areas, but also some construction.
But to close the entire facility down there, if you
put that note in there as a joke and a
port a potty, which you would almost expect that that's
what somebody meant, I don't know that you'd be the
first one to raise your hand and say, uh, by

(41:46):
the way, I wrote that note, I was just making
a joke because I really stunk the place up in there.
So it's going to be interesting. I hope they follow
up with this and actually come to a conclusion of this,
because well, although you know, and you can't. You have
to take these things seriously, But I think you also
have to take them in a context of which they're said,

(42:09):
how they're said, where they're said, and the people involved.
And I guess, you know, you got to err on
the side of caution. But it'll be kind of a
I don't know, I guess you could say that, well,
it's an expensive joke. Let's put it that way, because
I'm sure the emergency management services, the poor dogs that
had the bomb sniffing dogs that would have to go

(42:30):
into that porta potty to try to sniff that out.
I'm sure that wasn't a pleasant job for them. But
all in all, I think it could make for a
funny story. But again, with the resources that were spent,
the man hours that were done there, I'm sure that
people aren't thinking too much of a joke. So anyway,

(42:51):
it's interesting to see how that turns out. Talking about
what we're seeing as far as this election is concerned,
I was talking about the last hour, how it's been
interesting to see how the left is reacting to this.
It's you know, it's one of those things of the
twelve stages of grief. I believe when you look at
how they are reacting, and the disbelief, the finger pointing,

(43:15):
the guilt, the blaming, and all that sort of the
anger and all that sort of thing that are part
of those twelve steps. And I think everybody in the
media is, or at least in the spoon fed regurgitators
of the mainstream media, that they're all in varying stages
or at various stages of those twelve stages of grief.
But one of the things I have not heard anybody

(43:36):
talking about is that I have been saying for years,
and I've been calling them the spoon fed regurgitators in
the mainstream media for a reason for the longest time.
And I can go back to when I was a kid.
I remember talking about news issues and stuff with my mom,
and even Walter Cronkite, who was supposed to be the

(43:57):
most trusted man in America, would point out to me
because she knew the conservative talking points, she subscribed to
Human Events and would read the editorials there and so on,
and she would pick out in Walter Cronkite's news. And
this is where I first learned how to do this,
is that you listen to what they're saying. You have

(44:19):
to sometimes read between the lines and then know enough
at least about the subject to know what they're leaving
out of the story. And it's one of these things
about in the media. It's not necessarily the bis well,
it is the bias of the news stories that they cover,
but it's also the bias of the news stories that

(44:40):
they don't cover. And case in point, there is an
event generally the one of the first Monday or first
Sundays of June, down on the Newport behind the levee
there called to Cross the Bridge for Life, and it
is a elebration of life where a bunch of pro

(45:03):
life people get together. We do a walk down the row,
go across the Purple People Bridge, come back around, and
then wind up back down at the venue. It's a
family oriented event, and there have been times when there
was at least five thousand people there five thousand people,
and if I'm talking about that, I'm sure there's a

(45:24):
lot of people in the audience that are saying, across
the Bridge for Life, I've never heard of that. It
is one of those word of mouth things that's done
by some of the Catholic parishes and some of the
pro life people that talk about this, but it's never
been covered on the news. I mean CPO WLWT channel
twelve xix. They will send once in a while a

(45:47):
cameraman there and film, but they've never run the story.
At eleven, I saw one year where they did like
a two second or two you know, just kind of
said across the bridge of live blah blah blah blah
blah boom. That was it, and they cut to it
and it was in like the five o'clock hour, and
never again. And so the inquirers never covered this. But

(46:08):
how many events where people gather and protest something, or
a neighborhood watch group gets together and there's twenty five
people that talk about we're going to end gun violence
and they're going to you know, march down the street,
or they're going to be twenty five protesters at for
anything at city Hall, and they get coverage, They get
news coverage, but never the cross the bridge for life.

(46:31):
And so knowing some of the times that these news
agencies the stuff that they don't cover versus what they
do cover, and what I've seen over the last few
years is a situation of where the people in the media,
they are spoon fed the information and the talking points
from the Democratic Party to the point where they have

(46:53):
become the mouthpiece and the propaganda arm of the Democratic Party.
And so when they are spoonful fed this information, they
then regurgitate it to us and they present it to us.
They're not reporting on the news. They're not doing any
investigations on the news. They're not digging deep into the

(47:15):
story and coming up with something. They are basically just
regurgitating what they are handed And why this is important
is very important as this election unfolded. Talk about that
coming up. I'm Kevin Gordon in for Brian Thomas. Phone

on the previous segment. These spoon feder regurgitators in the
mainstream media and how they do not or how the
stories that they choose to cover versus n cover and
then the slant that they do. We're hearing now and
we're seeing the finger pointing going on of how within

(49:07):
the campaigns that even the campaign people were lying to
the press and that as far as he's pulling this
polling information was concerned, all they were doing was feeding
this to the journal of the so called well, I'm
sorry the media, which again begs the question that why
didn't anybody in the media see this coming. Why didn't

(49:29):
they do their own polling? And when they looked at
the numbers and then analyzed the numbers. I can remember
years ago, it's been more than twenty years ago, when
AP or Reuters or one of these organizations would come
up with a pole and they'd play and they'd put
that out there, and Rush Limbaugh was always good at saying, well,

(49:52):
this is what the poll says, but let's go to
where the questions that were asked, and you hit it
have on the story, and it would take you to
the questions that were asked, and you could see in
certain instances where it was more like a push poll
where they were getting you to you know, they were
setting up to say, well, if this happens, this happens, happens,

(50:13):
how do you feel about this particular person? And then
of course you'd have a negative view about it, And
so he would actually go into the questions itself and
point out the fallacy of some of these polls. Also,
they used to publish who they contacted, who they pulled,
how many Conservatives, how many Republicans, how many independents, or
actually how many Republicans, Democrats, independence, and so on. But

(50:35):
now those numbers are a lot harder to find, and
what the questions were leading up to this particular poll
are very difficult to find. And then the fact that
we've seen over the last several years, the fact that
a lot of conservatives do not tell newspapers or polling
places who they vote for. And when you're skewing that

(50:56):
more democrat, of course you're going to have these polls.
They're going to be you in that direction. But the
fact that these spoon fed regurgitators now are coming up
and saying we were lied to, we were misinformed, they
were lying to us about this, that, and the other thing,
all of a sudden they're shocked. I you know, when
you have soldier's soul to a certain liberal cause and

(51:20):
then the information that they've been feeding to you is
a lie, well then you want to start questioning about
why were you covering that in the first place. And
why did you buy into that. Let's go to the
phones real quick and let's go to Chris Chris fifty five.
Care see you're on the air. Thank you so much
for calling.

Speaker 8 (51:40):
Hey, how you doing.

Speaker 1 (51:41):
I'm doing great.

Speaker 7 (51:43):
I just walked into work. I heard you talking about
the Walk for.

Speaker 1 (51:47):
Life across the Bridge.

Speaker 7 (51:48):
Yes, I was very interested and I've never heard of it.

Speaker 1 (51:50):
Oh, generally on the first weekend of June, the first
Sunday in June, uh, there is a thing called the
Cross the Bridge for Life. They do have a website
and people meet on the river front. There are booths
and different pro life organization's care Net is one of them,
Sisters for Life, and all kinds of different pro life organization,

(52:12):
adoption groups and so on that are down there that
have the boose. There's live entertainment, there's bands that are played,
there's various literature, and it's a family oriented event and
people come down spend some time, and then at about
it starts around usually about one o'clock in the afternoon,
and then after about an hour or so, then they

(52:33):
do the march and go across the bridge. There's been
different routes that have been taken. The Purple People Bridge
this year was closed, as you may recall, so they
had to do a different route. One of the routes
used to be you'd go down the flood wall and
go out that entrance right off of the exit off
of what is it the first exit to Newport off

(52:54):
at four seventy one. I forget what strong that is.
I think it's park that goes into there. You usually
come out that entrance, walk down Route eight round in
front of the the Newport Levey and then go across
the Purple People Bridge that way and then come back
around and then go down back to the It's about

(53:15):
a mile mile and a half walk. But they've been
changing that because because of the number of people it
became a thing for Newport. I think it's intentional where
they don't want people out on Route eight because the
sidewalk's not big enough for the crowd of people, so
the police had to kind of cordon off a little
bit of the street there for people to be able

(53:36):
to walk. And again on a Sunday afternoon usually in June,
there isn't much traffic down there, so I never saw
it as much of a danger, but I think it
was trying to maybe I guess shorten a route or
kind of prove a point so that you know, people
that are driving down the road don't see it, because
if it's behind the flood wall, then you never see it.

(53:57):
So I don't know it's there's all kinds of i'm
sure politics going along with it, but it is a
great event. I learned about it kind of by happenstance
was talking to some people. I want to say, gosh,
I'm trying to remember what year this is. I think
I started going to my first one back in twenty

(54:17):
twelve ish, I think, but it had already been going
on for about five six years. And so yeah, it's
a great event, and I encourage anybody to go down
to it.

Speaker 7 (54:27):
It's amazing how you don't hear about stuff on the news.

Speaker 9 (54:30):
Yeah, and I was listening to you exactly.

Speaker 4 (54:33):
Yeah, we've been censored too long.

Speaker 1 (54:35):
I mean, five thousand people. And you know, when you
look at the March for Life in January of each
year in Washington, major news media doesn't cover that. And
of course, with Nick Sandmon, I'm sure that there are
hardly any Catholic high schools or high school or Catholic
schools that send any of their students or allow their

(54:57):
students to go there, simply what happened. And I'm Nick
Salmon because they don't want the national attention that they
got there, So again censorship by not publicizing it, but
then also trying to sabotage it by trying to confront
somebody and create a scene. So yes, it's amazing.

Speaker 9 (55:16):
It's a shame, it really is.

local headlines we're covering for you this morning. Alkoda East
High School principal ordered on administrative leave. A principal of
Lakota East High School has been ordered by District of
five taken administrative leave of absence for reasons not publicly disclosed.
Rob Burnside, the principle of Lakota East since twenty twenty one,

(57:08):
was placed on paid administrative leave on November the fourth,
as Lakota District officials investigated a quote concern. According to
the message sent to the school parents of the high school,
A Lakota Superintendent Ashley Whitley's statement noted, We've been investigating
a concern that was brought to our attention and had
anticipating having a resolution sooner. However, we feel as important

(57:31):
to share as much information as we can at this time,
said Whitley. Thank you for your patients and understanding. Well, folks,
it's been seven days now, and you would think that,
you know, just putting because they had a concern. You'd
think that they would, you know, have some sort of
a you know, a resolution to this. But interestingly enough,

(57:52):
we had anticipated speedy resolution of the situation. However you're
still ongoing. One of the largest Lakota East, one of
the largest school and time in three years, Lakota's East
principal has been ordered to take paid administrative leave. In
twenty twenty one, then Principal Yetid Mack was placed on leave.
Mack later left school system after reaching a settlement agreement

(58:14):
approved by the Lakota Board. Burnside was a located East
teacher when the school was first opened in nineteen ninety seven.
He later went on to work as a assistant principal
at Warren County's King Schools and as a high school
principal in Claremont County. So it'd be interesting to see
how this turns out. Talawanda High School teacher put on
leave amid investigation into hateful social media pos Talawanda High

(58:38):
School teacher was placed on administrative leave Friday, penning and
investigation into social media videos and posts allegedly filmed on
school property potentially happened. This potentially happened on the district's
network and device. District statement said district has received many
reports the concerns regarding this issue. Superintendent's office said, human

(58:59):
resources and so on. Parents say they have seen the
teachers' social media posts and these are not the first
concerning comments they have made. First one which appeared that
which appeared the teacher was in her classroom and was
extremely helped hateful. According to one parent, it was basically
saying we needed to identify any man that had voted

(59:20):
blue in twenty twenty four election, because men who identify
and wear blue bracelets are safe. Anybody who did not
vote blue, they're unsafe. In another video, the teacher that
they were saying she encouraged them to get iud's implanted
in their bodies. Children, and she said telling them that

(59:40):
same children not to trust men, do not go to
male physicians. It's extremely sexist, it's hateful, and it should
go against the school's conduct code. So as we've seen
in some of the national stories about some of these
teachers that have used their teaching to indoctrinate and to
do a political view on people, uh and to basically

(01:00:05):
give political statements in the classroom as opposed to educating
our kids. We see this kind of on a local
level here, and you got to wonder, uh, some of
the parents that have shown up at these school board
meetings questioning things as a result of the COVID lockdown
and some of the stuff they learned about how their
kids were being educated. You got to wonder how much

(01:00:25):
more of the stuff is going on. Phone numbers five, one, three, seven, four, nine,

Let's go to the phones. Talk to Mike. Mike fifty five,
Thanks for calling you, thank you for holding appreciate.

Speaker 10 (01:02:02):
It, Hei Kevin.

Speaker 11 (01:02:05):
Two things about the election with the poles. First, one
of the things, I don't see how the polls are
accurate because I've never been asked, and I don't know
anyone that's ever been pulled. That's about the collection. And
also with cell phones these days, then you get the
phone on your unknown number, you're not going.

Speaker 9 (01:02:21):
To answer it anyway.

Speaker 11 (01:02:22):
No, so I didn't believe the polls were right anyway.

Speaker 1 (01:02:26):
Well, unless you answer those unnamed phone calls, you want
to play with the guys a little bit, right, if
you got the time.

Speaker 11 (01:02:33):
And another thing, I was listening to Joe Rogan's podcast
the other night and he was talking about Diana White
told him that Elon Musk has created an app, and
he knew at nine o'clock at night that Trump had
already won because of the analytics that he programmed to his.

Speaker 1 (01:02:51):
App, which if you're doing things properly and if you
were to go and actually do some investigationation or do
some investigative journalism, the news media would have realized this
because you know, when you you know, you started talking

(01:03:11):
about the well, when the selection process was done for Kamala,
they talked about all this joy, all this joy, all
this joy. But when you looked at the rallies, when
you looked at the long lines at the Trump rallies,
when you looked at the enthusiasm, you'd have to say
that there's something to this movement and we need to
see how. You know, it could be you know, a

(01:03:34):
mile wide and a half an inch deep, but in
this case it was a mile wide and probably a
mile deep. Whereas Kamala Harris was more of that, just
the veneer and they didn't even bother to look into it.
They just just regurgitated all the internal pollings, all the pullings, everything,
all the lies that the Harris campaign were telling them.

(01:03:55):
So yeah, I mean it falls on these news agencies
that they didn't get the information. And you know, I
mentioned earlier the fact that CNN and MSNBC didn't call
the election until a quarter of six in the morning
on Wednesday morning, whereas AP and Fox had called that
by one five. So for the next basically four hours,

(01:04:20):
CNN and MSc MSNBC were lying to their viewers that
this election is still too close to call. So anyway,
thanks so much, Mike, I appreciate that. Let's go to
Let's get uh, let's go to Jane. Jane fifty five
k se thanks for calling.

Speaker 12 (01:04:37):
Hi, good morning. I just wanted to pee back on
the talawanda issues you were talking about. I teach for
let's just say, Hamilton County's largest public school system, and
those of us who did not vote Bloom are not
being treated very well. I was called it nazi last

(01:05:00):
week by another staff member aspersions cast towards me. Ever
since we came back to school after the election, it
was it's pretty awful. And I've gone to administration and
I've already talked to my union waiting to hear you know,

(01:05:22):
thinking's going to be said to the people. I don't know.

Speaker 1 (01:05:26):
I wouldn't I wouldn't doubt if the Union is going
to do anything the administration should.

Speaker 12 (01:05:32):
But well, yeah, yeah, I know. I just it's there
are a number of us who did not vote blue,
and we most people are just keeping their mouths that
I tend.

Speaker 1 (01:05:44):
To not to, so good for you, Good for you,
if you don't mind my asking, what is the what
do you guess to be the percentage of people that
are voted blue versus voted red?

Speaker 12 (01:05:58):
In my school personally, I who say there's about ten
of us out and we're in elementary school, so out great.
I have about maybe forty forty five maybe fifty.

Speaker 1 (01:06:14):
Teachers, about twenty five percent thereabouts or a little bit less.
Which is interesting because we keep getting lectured by the
left that they are the tolerant ones. They're the ones
with the coexists, They're the ones that luxture us about bullying.
They're the ones that you know, talk about acceptance and
speaking truth to power and all this sort of stuff.
And it's amazing that the people that screamed the loudest

(01:06:37):
and talked the loudest about if you heard the phrase recently,
it's popped up on Facebook a lot. Be nice, Uh
find this be nice behind.

Speaker 7 (01:06:48):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:06:48):
Yeah, that's apparently, to use the terms of the liberals,
that that's a dog whistle, indicating that, you know, just
by being a conservative or displaying stuff makes you, you know,
automatically assume you're a racist. So they're trying to tell
you to be nice. They're trying to, you know, to

(01:07:09):
basically cancel you to a certain extent.

Speaker 12 (01:07:12):
So I know, trust me, Yeah, I can imagine.

Speaker 1 (01:07:18):
Well is you know and I I gosh, I you know,
I encourage you to speak out. I'd encourage you to
encourage the others to speak out, and he only you know,
I hate to say it, but one of the ways
that you know, you disarm a bully sometimes is pushing back.
And you know, sometimes if they don't think that they're

(01:07:41):
going to get their way, they tend to back down.
But you know, with those percentages in a hostile work environment,
that could be difficult sometimes.

Speaker 12 (01:07:52):
Yeah, the aggressiveness and the combativeness, especially last week, has
been palpable. It's it's very obvious.

Speaker 1 (01:08:01):
So yeah, it's amazing how bold they are. It is
amazing how they feel as though that they have the
right and I guess almost the duty to actually to
I guess bully people to try to be intimidating and
so on, which is interesting. You know, you would think

(01:08:24):
that if you're right, you would think that if you
have the facts on your side, that you would present
the facts instead of trying to intimidate people.

Speaker 12 (01:08:33):
Well, and this is coming from the side he thinks
everybody has their opinion and everybody is allowed to express it. Yeah,
unless we don't agree with you.

Speaker 1 (01:08:43):
Yeah, it's sad to hear that you're going through that.
But all I can say is be strong. You're a
better person for it, and you know it makes you stronger.
I'm sure you have a tremendous amount of respect of
your peers for standing up and not letting them intimidate you.
So I applaud you for that.

Speaker 12 (01:09:01):
I've been I've gotten messages.

Speaker 9 (01:09:03):
Yes, it's so it's been nice.

Speaker 1 (01:09:05):
Thank you for being there. No, thank you all right, Jane,
thank you so much for the phone call. I certainly
appreciate it. That is just unbelievable that there would be
that kind of intimidation going on in schools. And you know,
this just tells me and one of these things that
we've seen when you have these outbursts, when you have
these situations at schools, and you wonder how did something

(01:09:30):
escalate to that point? And I'm talking mostly and I'm
not talking about it in this instances or whatever, but
when you see behavior and kids getting bullied, and that
the administration and the teachers and not obviously not teachers
like Jane, but certain people that don't get involved and
don't push back on that and demand a code of

(01:09:50):
conduct from their students, how these things get out of hand?
And I guess you know, going to schools over the
years that when I was a kid, that we knew
that your parents, if they found out that you were
trying to bully somebody, they would be outraged. The school
didn't put up with bullying, and at least the coaches

(01:10:14):
in the athletic department were very we were talking about
Jerry Faust earlier that the coaches, at least the coaches
that I had, if they knew of any of their
athletes or any of the members of the team that
were bullying other students, they wouldn't be athletes. They you know,
they just flat out that you're not going to be
on the team if that's the way you're going to behave.

(01:10:36):
So these schools need to, you know, pay attention to
what's going on and have what they want or as
they claim they want, a safe environment. Phone numbers five one, three, seven,

Six fifty three in the morning, Kevin Gordon in for
Brian Thomas fifty fifty five k see the talk station. Yeah,
previous caller, Jane, you know kind of sticks in my
mind that this is not a microcosm. I you know,
you hear about these things way too many times, I
think one of the and trust me, there is not

(01:12:36):
many silver linings of the whole pandemic that we were
forced to endure. It's interesting to see parents have reacted
and how parents have learned about what was going on
in the schools during the pre COVID times. And so

(01:12:57):
when parents learned what was going on and they actually
start asking questions how they were treated. And but the
silver lining is is that they realize what is going
on in the schools and now have an opportunity to
do something about it. And in any situation where there

(01:13:17):
is a bad situation, a corrupt situation, it's you know
the old adage that you know, the only way evil
can thrive is if good men do nothing, and being
you know, good men mean all of mankind. And so
the fact that people like Jane speak out, take the

(01:13:39):
bull by the horns, don't be intimidated by people, it's
amazing how more and more people just don't want to
mess with you at that point because if you fight back,
and and it seems that the quickest argument and the
quickest answer if somebody says you're a Nazi, the the

(01:14:00):
question becomes, define nazi, what's the proof, where's your proof?
Give me, give me details, And nine times out of
ten it's like, well, I don't know what a Nazi is,
all right, Well, then shut the hell up and go away.

(01:14:21):
And when you see that there is nothing behind their accusation.
And the biggest thing is is that if Donald Trump
is such an existential threat, which means he's a threat
to the existence of democracy, if he's a Nazi, if
he's a fascist, why did you Biden invite him to

(01:14:43):

it's a permanent smile on my face after the election.

hundred one, eight hundred eight two three, talk one eight

(01:16:20):
hundred eight two three, eight two five five or pound
five fifty on that AT and T wireless phone. I
don't think that I have ever seen a situation well,
obviously I've talked about in the past, and I've talked
about it a lot over the last week about how
euphoric this victory was and how amazing it was, and

(01:16:42):
just the feelings that I'm seeing. I don't know if
it's just maybe feeling like the monkey's off your back,
so to speak, or whatever. I've heard people say, you know,
the air seems fresher, the sun seems brighter, and all
this sort of stuff. You know, there's a little bit
of truth to that. I think I mentioned yesterday how

(01:17:04):
having to do a couple of errands on Wednesday afternoon
and then on Thursday driving around, it seemed to me
as I was driving around for a Wednesday or a
Thursday afternoon. It almost seemed like it was the Christmas season.
You know how around the Christmas season you go pass
the mall or you go past stores and they're just
absolutely packed. The parking lots to a restaurant that we

(01:17:26):
normally go to is was jam packed. Usually you only
see that, you know, a couple of times, you know,
like maybe on a Sunday afternoon after church or something,
but you don't usually see that on a Wednesday or
Thursday afternoon. And I was telling you, my wife almost
said the same, you know, when she turned to me,
and I think I turned to her almost the same
time and said, where's all this traffic coming from? She said,

(01:17:48):
I was just getting ready to say that, because it
seems like it's Christmas out there with all the traffic
and people are at stores, people are I don't know
if people felt better about the economy. I don't know
if people were feeling that help is on the way,
that somebody has finally listened to them, that they're somebody's
got their back. I don't know. But then when I

(01:18:09):
see these headlines of what has happened just in the
last week, we've got European Union saying they're going to
buy they're already in line to start buying liquid natural
gas from the United States rather than Russia. And one
of the things that's boggled my mind over the last
several last couple of years is that and this a

(01:18:31):
lot of people don't know this. You know, you heard
the nord Stream pipeline that ran from Russia under the
ocean and into the European Union, and somebody blew that up.
I think it was the CIA because you had Biden
and you had I can't think of her name off
the top of my head, I just had it in
my brain. But mentioning that the if Russia continue to

(01:18:54):
invade Ukraine, that this pipeline we're not going to go
through and we've got ways of it. Well they stopped it,
and you know, trying to blame it on the Ukrainians
for blowing it up, But there is a pipeline that
goes from Russia through Ukraine to the European Union. And
this was that pipeline that Trump was talking about that

(01:19:19):
you Germany is going to if they do away with
their coal plants, if they go to this green new
steel that they are going to be totally dependent on
Russia and that they are going to be their held
hostage by them. And I can remember when Trump gave

(01:19:39):
that speech at the UN that the delegation from Germany
was laughing at him. You could see those pinheads sitting
there laughing. He said, now this idiot and all this
sort of stuff. Well, six eight months twelve months later,
when Russia invade the Ukraine, they were held hostage to
that that they couldn't retaliate. NATO against Ukraine is not

(01:20:05):
a NATO ally, but NATO does support and control or
protect Europe, and for them not to step up to
the plate, for UN not to step up to the plate,
was amazing. And so once again Trump was proven right.
But here is a situation where Russia is sending natural

(01:20:26):
gas to Germany, who in turn is sending money to Russia,
which then affords Russia the money to fund their military
and continue attacking Ukraine. And yet this pipeline comes through Ukraine.
It is the craziest situation I've ever seen. If you're

(01:20:49):
trying to damage your enemy, wouldn't you think that would
be a likely thing you would attack? But it's so crazy.
Over there, Moss is talking about wanting to have a
ceasefire with Israel and get to the negotiating table. Europe
is saying that they want to buy more liquid natural

(01:21:10):
gas from the United States than they did before. I
see a story here. China is threatening to retaliate against
the EU because of duties on the evs that China
is dumping on them into the European Union. So in
other words, you know, they call it duties, but it's
a tariff. So all of a sudden, all this talk about,

(01:21:34):
you know, punishing China for dumping their cheap products on
a certain economy, and when Trump talks about it in
terms of tariffs, all of a sudden, oh, that's you know,
the Orange Man is so stupid. He's going to raise
inflation that he's going to create problems in the World economics,
and the World Economic Forum is not going to be
happy with him and all this sort of stuff. Yet

(01:21:55):
when the European Union says, you know what, we're getting hammered.
We're getting our product that are having major tariffs put
on them for us to sell them to Russia or
to China or whoever. And yet we're expected not to
do anything on our end. All of a sudden, you're
starting to see that being talked about. You're starting to
see that. You had that caravan that we saw last

(01:22:16):
week before the election, where there was something like three
thousand people in this caravan that were making their way
to the border and coming coming through Mexico to come
to the southern border and come through. Well, once the
election started happening and they realized that Trump was going
to become president, all of a sudden, half of those

(01:22:37):
people in that caravan went by the wayside, and all
of a sudden, now that caravan is nowhere to be found.
And so just the mirror threat, the mere idea that
this is not going to be business as usual, that
I hate to use the expression new sheriff in town,
but somebody that is going to hold countries accountable, that
are going to push back on some of this nonsense

(01:23:00):
we've seen around the world over the last four years
because of we have been operating from a sense of
weakness as opposed to strength and with nothing to back
it up. I mean, when you have a situation it
still boggles my mind. We saw this back in twenty
twelve under the Obama administration when Russia invaded crimea or

(01:23:22):
as as the senator from Maxine Waters calls it, Korea
invaded Ukraine. But Korea was invaded, not Crimea. That's what
I'm trying to say. But when Crimea was invaded by

(01:23:43):
under Obama's watch, nothing was done, There was no pushback, nothing,
and then all of a sudden, Biden's in office and
the saber rattling goes on. They amassed troops on the border.
Once they have massed troops on the border, you knew
what was going to happen. And rather than just giving
them a tongue wagging and saying, you know, don't, don't,

(01:24:04):
don't cross this red line, line in the sand type
of thing, they kept the massing troops on the border.
You knew what was going to happen. Where the hell
was the UN where was NATO? Where we're into the
European allies pushing back on Russia telling them not to
invade a neighboring country. And yet because nobody was there,
nobody was standing up, nobody was saying there's going to

(01:24:26):
be implications from that, they go ahead and invade. And
then the Biden administration puts sanctions on Russia Russian oil,
which because of the Biden administration, ending the Keystone XL pipeline,
cutting back on our energy production in the United States,
closing leases, closing federal lands to being able to drill

(01:24:46):
for oil, cutting down the leases in the Gulf and
not allowing a lot of drilling there. We started depending
more and more on our foreign adversaries for oil, and
you saw the price of oil go from fifty dollars
a barrel in twenty twenty up to seventy five eighty
ninety dollars a barrel later on, and of course that
reflected in our gas at the gas pumps for us,

(01:25:06):
and we started seeing the inflation raising rising because of
the increased inflation and because this was going on, because
this and then the sanctions on were placed on Russia,
because Russia, you know, when they weren't making a lot
of money at oil, being at fifty dollars a barrel,
now all of a sudden, they're making boatloads of money

(01:25:28):
at seventy five eighty dollars a barrel, which funds their
military and then gives them the idea that hey, what
are we going to do with this money. We're not
going to improve the lives of our people. Let's go
invade a country, and so they started invading Ukraine, and
there were sanctions put on them by the Biden administration,
but they were toothless, they were not enforced. In fact,
there's the stories about how the Russian freighters, the Russian

(01:25:51):
tankers would take this oil. They'd go out in the
middle of the ocean, turned off their transponders and meet
up with another neutral ship and offload their oil onto
that ship, and then that ship would then go on
to a port and drop that off. And I'm not
I wouldn't be at all surprised if we're not getting
if we have not been buying Russian oil into this

(01:26:14):
country as a result of that turning off the transponders.
And they started doing these analysis and saying, well, these
companies that are transporting this oil, they're saying they're coming
from Malaysia, they're coming from this other country and whatever.
But the amount of oil that was being imported from
that country was more than the oil that they actually produced,

(01:26:36):
and so nobody was calling into question. Nobody was enforcing
the sanctions on Russia, and so Russia was making money
hand over fist and it's you know, when you don't
enforce sanctions. When you don't enforce or or or tell somebody,
or stand strongly and tell somebody not to invade a country,
you're going to get a country invaded. Phone numbers five one, three, seven, four, nine,

what's going on around the world, when we're looking at

(01:28:50):
what's going on in the news departments, when we look
around what's going on in Washington, Uh, all it does
is just put more smiles on my face, and it
makes me even happier. I looked. I mentioned this earlier
in the previous segment Chinese retaliation to EV duties anti
dumping measures on EU brandy. Ready, that's the headline. China

(01:29:11):
and European Union are on a path that leads straight
to a dangerous trade war. After European duties on imports
of electric vehicles, the Asian giant announced its first retaliation.
From Friday, November fifteenth, Beijing will impose temporary anti dumping
measures on brandy imported from the EU countries. Despite progress

(01:29:33):
announced by both sides over the weekend on negotiations removed
duties on battery powered cars. Now the European Union has
announced and apparently are doing trade with Chinese and with
the car companies Volkswagen, BMW and the other car companies

(01:29:53):
in Europe that have been going down this path of
green steel, green news steel programs and trying to move
towards this green energy of fiasco and trying to build
these evs. They're finding that their cars are not being
the cars that they're manufacturing, that people of Europe don't

(01:30:15):
want them because number one of the expense, Number two,
because there's not enough infrastructure. Does this sound familiar as
like what's going on here in the United States? So
the infrastructure isn't there they're not getting the range from
the batteries that they want to get. And the European
even though you know, when you look at the European

(01:30:36):
Union and how social their socialized medicine, they're more socialist
type of governments where even their people are pushing back
on this. Even though they are all in on this
green technology and stuff, they also realize that, hey, this
stuff is costing us money and if it's not efficient,
if it's not sufficient, and if it's not doing the job,

(01:30:58):
then we don't want it. And Volkswagen and BMW not
too long ago, well, Volkswagen for the first time in
their history, first time in their history going back to
the nineteen forties, actually started shutting some of their plants
down or at least halting production because the sales of
their cars were down. So that's an indication of what's

(01:31:20):
going on as far as some of the vehicles that
they're manufacturing on the EVS, the customers don't want them.
BMW made a comment to the European Union and said,
we're not going to be able to meet our goals,
that people don't want these cars and we can't sell them.
We're supposed to keep producing them but we can't sell them.

(01:31:40):
And now you have China because of slave labor. Because
they can manufacture these vehicles for less than what the
European Union can, they're important. They're dumping those on the
European Union, and of course because they're cheaper, some of
the people in the European Union are buying them. Well,

(01:32:01):
European Union said, well, you know, we're going to start
instituting to protect our jobs, to protect our businesses, We're
going to impuh what they call duties, which is more
or less a tariff. They're going to institute that. Well,
Russia said, well, okay, if you're going to do that,
we're going to start putting duties on the brandy that
you send us. Well, I would imagine that European They

(01:32:23):
say in here that the European Union is bargaining from
a strength position of weakness. But if you're talking about
alcohol with the Russian people, uh, I would assume that
there's going to be more protests in Russia about having
to pay more for alcohol than it is in the
European Union, paying more for evs being dumped on them

(01:32:44):
that they really don't want in the first place. So

Seven thirty in the morning. Kevin Gordon in for Brian Thomas,
fifty five KR. See the talk station. So local headlines
were covering for you today. One of the stories I think, well,
it's kind of hits home for me because I use
four seventy one a lot, especially when I'm coming over here.
The day that that fire took place, I had a

(01:34:43):
doctor's appointment over it yet christ Hospital, and I was
going to the appointment. I go down the road in
the exit, the entrance ramp was closed, and I said, oh,
there must be an accident on the entrance ramp. So
I drive ten minutes further towards into Newport and go
to an exit or an entrance ramp there it was closed,
and I'm like, what the hell is four seventy one

(01:35:04):
all closed for and then I come to find out
about the fire. So I was about twenty minutes late
for my appointment. But then coming back, I couldn't use
four seventy one. And now I guess the northbound lanes
are open, but the southbound lanes are still closed. So
whenever I go back home, I got to go a
different route and so on. But it's just wild And
from what I understand, they still haven't determined the cause

(01:35:26):
of this fire or anybody responsible for it. And you know,
they're hinting that that it's arson. I wonder if it's
not an act of terrorism. You just got to ask
that question. You figure that a fire burning that hot,
that high that much being able to damage a bridge
and shut down that flow of traffic in that particular area.

(01:35:49):
You know, I kind of questioned the wisdom of whatever,
apparently the playground equipment that burned. I questioned the wisdom
of putting something like that underneath a structure like that.
Maybe moving it off to the side or moving it
someplace else would have been probably the more, how should
we say, the more judicious thing to do. But they
are talking about this timeline now of trying to let's

(01:36:12):
see as far as replacing in the construction and repairing
the bridge they're talking about. They could get a timeline
for when the construction will end on southbound Ice four
seventy one at the Daniel Carter Beard Bridge by early
next week. According to the latest update, o DOT said
the concrete footers crews poured on Friday were able to

(01:36:34):
cure over the weekend, providing the support base for shoring
towers that will be assembled on Monday, which was yesterday.
The goal is to have those six shoring towers constructed
by the end of the week. Once that's done, then
they can remove the concrete and the steel above that
support and see you and of course I obviously inspect

(01:36:55):
the damage to see what all is going to have
to be replaced and so on. Now, you may recall
a couple of years ago when there was an accident
on the Brent Spence Bridge and there was a fire
there that damaged the bridge. That bridge was down for
I think they said forty one days or something along
those lines. And so the fact that they were able

(01:37:17):
to get that up and running within a matter of
like six weeks or so was a good sign. Hopefully
they'll be able to do that here. But they are
talking about how a lot of activity is going on
down there, how quickly they are moving and once the inspectors,
I guess can get up there and find out what's

(01:37:38):
going on. They mentioned that this is ODOT's biggest project
right now. All our efforts are concentrated on repairing the
bridge and getting it reopened to traffic. South Bound lanes
the Big Mac have been closed since November first, when
the one thousand hands playground in Sawyer Point caught fire.
Let's see, they're talking about how impressive this movement is,
talking about road closures and so on. So it's amazing

(01:38:03):
that how something in that area could create that much
of turmoil. And again, you know, you got to wonder,
and you know, this brings up a point that I've
been asking now for Well, this is now two years
with the Infrastructure Bill. Weren't we supposed to have wasn't
this a shovel ready project for that Brent Spence Bridge replacement.

(01:38:25):
Weren't they supposed to start turning the shovel on the
dirt there? Because after all, remember we were told back
in twenty thirteen that it was it was an emergency
situation where we had to do a public private partnership
in order to get this bridge built, and even if
it involved making tolls, that it was so critical that
that be done back in twenty thirteen so it would

(01:38:48):
be available in twenty fifteen. Well, folks, it is now
twenty twenty four, twelve years almost twelve years after that event,
and we still, even with the infrastructure bill the funding
in place, they still haven't turned a shovel of dirt
down there, and it all, you know, it's amazing how
when the and how people aren't following up on this.

(01:39:12):
This bridge was supposed to be so critical to the
area that it had to be built right here, right now,
this minute. And of course you know my involvement in
stopping that bridge simply because of the tolls that we're
going to be on there. But again, when you have
these infrastructure problems and it shows how vulnerable we are
and how fragile we are in terms of transportation, that

(01:39:35):
is the thing that you know, when it's called a question,
is kind of frightening. Phone numbers five one, three, seven, four, nine,

(01:41:24):
you this morning? Thanks for calling?

Speaker 7 (01:41:27):
Hey, great Kevin, how are you doing.

Speaker 1 (01:41:29):
I'm doing great. I'm behind the microphone. It doesn't get
any better than that for me.

Speaker 10 (01:41:33):
There you go, Hey, I just wanted to mention with
the whole Trump thing.

Speaker 7 (01:41:37):
I definitely believe that the.

Speaker 10 (01:41:40):
Hand of God definitely intervened in gave America a second chance.
Some people may not agree to that, and all I
can say is you just don't understand or you're not
paying attention. But with the bullet almost hitting, he turned
his head at the right moment. And I believe with
all the prayers, because there definitely was a lot of praying,
going on like the ever has been before over a president.

Speaker 1 (01:42:02):
Yes, I believe, No, I agree, I have to agree
with that. I haven't I've never seen anything like this
in my life.

Speaker 10 (01:42:12):
Yeah, it's remarkable, and I believe God has given America
a second chance for whatever reasons. And and if you
don't think it's going to get better, you're being really misled.
You just don't understand, you don't get it, or you're
not listening. You know, the start stock market is zoomed immediately.
The next day, you got a country back and down

(01:42:33):
kicking him off out. You got other things that are
happening immediately. He's already talked to sitting them over there
at the war. He had Elon Musk on the phone.
I mean the people that have flipped over to the
other side and fleeting the Kennedy family. You know, the
rest of the Kennedys are all kicked off. You know,
if you don't get that or see that, you just

(01:42:53):
don't understand or you're too respectably ignorant to the situations
at hand here. And the other thing I'd like to
mention is the media is already starting to beat him up.
You know, they will react immediately, so here ethically and
design it the way they want on this deportation. And
one thing everybody forgets is mister Clinton deported eleven million

(01:43:13):
people and that was from a Democratic party and there
was no stints and it was the right thing that
needed to be done then. And I think people need to,
you know, explain that once in a while that mister
Clinton did the same thing and nowhere near the kickback.
But they'll they'll find every horrific situation they can and
it'll be front and center. And they're already needed in
the news picking on Trump. The negativity is remarkable. And

(01:43:36):
one other thing I'd like to add is, you know
these news stations, these terrible news stations, I believe that
they export all this evil. They the Democrats couldn't do
it without it the way they've done it in such success.
But I believe that people need to think about this,
those darn stations, the NBC, CBS, ABC, They need to

(01:43:57):
give them the.

Speaker 8 (01:43:57):
Bud like treatment, because that will, whether you like it
or not, that works.

Speaker 7 (01:44:01):
That they should give them the bud like treatment.

Speaker 11 (01:44:04):
And just avoid them and don't listen to him no more.

Speaker 1 (01:44:06):
Well, you know, the thing is, they'll wake up.

Speaker 7 (01:44:09):
Then.

Speaker 1 (01:44:10):
Well, you know, the thing is is that the ratings
for each one of these stations is way down. There's
a story that Chris Wallace is out of CNN after
three years he didn't renew his contract. That you may
recall that he was part of that CNN. Plus he
left Fox that cratered within six months after he was there,
and so then they gave him some talk shows and

(01:44:30):
that they've reduced his contract and he didn't accept it,
so he's going to be gone. MSNBC and the other
networks their ratings have cratered as viewers are tuning them out.
And I think the more and more people realize that
quite honestly, these other stations, the MSNBC's, the CNNs, they

(01:44:51):
have become irrelevant. I mean, for a long time people
have recognized that journalism was dead at those organizations. And
as I've referred to them as the spoon fed regurgitators
in the mainstream media media, being given the propaganda talking
points from the DNC, and all they do is regurgitated
to us. They have been losing ratings ever, so, you know,

(01:45:14):
down and down and down to the point now where
even though I mean when you look at what is
at eighty five? Ninety percent of the coverage of Donald
Trump during the election was negative and ninety five percent
of the coverage of Kamala Harris was positive. And they
couldn't move the needle with that, the fact that they

(01:45:35):
were telling everybody that their polling indicated that it was
a close race, that Kamala was going to win, and
then all of a sudden, it's this blowout. People have
got to be asking the question, I've been getting my
news from this, come from this organization all this time.
Now I wonder how some of these people, and I've
talked about this, the fact that the AP and Fox

(01:45:57):
called that election at one forty one am on Wednesday morning,
and it wasn't until five forty five in the morning
that MSNBC, NBC and CNN called that for Trump. So
for that four hours period of time, if the people
were tuning in like I would stay up until I

(01:46:17):
saw the election results, they were lied to for four
hours until.

Speaker 4 (01:46:23):
I did this.

Speaker 7 (01:46:24):
I witnessed that too.

Speaker 1 (01:46:25):
I did the same thing.

Speaker 4 (01:46:26):
I was up all night.

Speaker 13 (01:46:27):
Yeah I saw that, Yeah, yeah, it was It is amazing,
you know, And the news is already beginning their bash
and to even say that it had to do with
the fact that she was black or a woman in
race race race, race race.

Speaker 10 (01:46:43):
Another fact, the majority of the vote that voted mister
Obama in was white. I mean, they need to let
it go and stop. I still don't think that they
truly have learned everything they need to learn yet and
knock it off and you know, do their job and who, what, where,
when and why?

Speaker 1 (01:46:59):
Just the fact exactly. But again when the and I
would say to the Republican Party, and I'd say to
the Trump people, and I hope I know they're smart
enough ignore them because obviously they're irrelevant. They're you know,
with all their coverage over the last well nine years
of Trump, they haven't been able to kill him off,

(01:47:19):
either figuratively or literally. And if they haven't done it
nine years, this next four years, they're irrelevant. Just ignore them,
turn them off, don't talk to them, don't give them
the time of day, and let them just wither on
the vine, so to speak. Anyway, Joey, thank you so much.

Great, good morning to you and all these listeners.

Speaker 1 (01:49:25):
Yes, thank you.

Speaker 7 (01:49:28):
So get a quick note about the bridge fire. I
think this is intentionally said.

Speaker 9 (01:49:36):
Uh.

Speaker 7 (01:49:36):
The rubber compounds that were used for protection kids falling
pretty much the same dual compound that's used on solid
fuel rocket boosters. Oh love, it takes well, it won't
burn by itself like that, but if you ad an
oxidizer to it, and it's going to burn with the

(01:49:57):
ferocity that it had. It was a firefighter for five years,
so that was some time ago. I've seen the fires
that burn with rubber and it's nothing like that, nothing
like that that was fueled not just by the rubber
but by strong oxidizer.

Speaker 1 (01:50:14):
Well, you know, I saw I saw the pictures of
those flames, and for as big a fire as that was,
I originally thought that, you know, there was maybe I
know there's not. I don't think the trains go that
far into the city. The only thing that I could
think of was be something like an oil tanker or

(01:50:35):
something underneath there and and that catching on fire. But
I mean, that was a huge fire for playground to
crew equipment and whatever, and probably kind of leads some
fredence to what you were saying about this oxidizer. And
it's interesting that we're not getting and we're not hearing
anything about what caused it. Uh, it's like all of

(01:50:57):
a sudden, you know, we've got all these news reporters
around town, we've got three of the networks, we've got
XIX and everything, and nobody seems to care, you know,
on other things.

Speaker 7 (01:51:09):
Well, I think your truth have come out. Let's hope it.
I can imagine looking at this much.

Speaker 1 (01:51:18):
I would hope.

Speaker 14 (01:51:19):
So.

Speaker 1 (01:51:20):
All right, Hey, thanks so much for the information. Tim
certainly appreciated. Coming up at the top of the hour,
we're gonna be talking to Matthew Boyle. He's with the
Washington Bureau chief for Bright part and looking forward to
talking to him. I don't think I've ever interviewed him before.
But let's cover a couple of fun stories here. Chris
Wallace out at CNN after three years. Now, this is

(01:51:43):
a mid where you know, he went over there for
that CNN plus he left Fox because I guess he
figured it was a better environment over there. But that
folded after what only six months or even long and
shorter than that. He's been used as of course, been
doing other thing and they found a show for him.
But then they renewed his contract significantly less than what

(01:52:05):
his original deal was. His original deal was eight point
five million with the inked under former's Henn boss Jeff
Zucker And so now they've cut back his contract. During
the presidential election year, election year, Chris Wallace show failed
to crack six hundred thousand total viewers and averaged just

(01:52:25):
eighty five thousand in the advertiser coveted twenty five to
fifty four demo. Let's see. He's expected to appear on
the network through the end of the year. Wallace's exit
comes as reports of CNN's financial woes may coming to
a head now that the twenty twenty four election is
over signaling potential layoffs and salary cuts for on air talent.

(01:52:48):
I also heard some reports that MSNBC that with their
affiliation now that their talks of spinning them off or
caning that division altogether. MSNBC's ratings crater on Thursday as
viewers tune out. They claim that the ratings creator as

(01:53:08):
viewers tune out Trump victory coverage. Well, if you tune
into their broadcasts, they're not talking about the victory coverage.
They're talking about the whys, the wherefores, the blame game,
who was lied to, and so on. And when you
have a campaign that raises a billion dollars and then

(01:53:35):
winds up twenty million dollars in the hole after paying
people like Oprah win Fee as I call her now
because it's not Oprah because she's not free, So it's
Oprah win Fee a million dollars. When you pay Beyonce

of these Hollywood people that they had on the stage,

dig around here for some news and I can't really
kind of pinpoint anything that we need to talk about.

Speaker 9 (01:55:10):
So, oh my gosh, Lots, president of WHACT is rebuilding
his cabinet. He's been rolling out all sorts of different announcements.
We're seeing the last night the House of Representatives got

So that's kind of cool as cool. Yeah, Now, I
have noticed that there's been quite a delay in some
of these how should we say, Heritage Broadcasting Networks or whatever,
or what do they call him? I don't know, whatever
they call him. I call them the spoon fed regurgitators
in the mainstream media. But most of the mainstream media

(01:55:58):
they seem to be a little bit the in terms
of calling these races, because, uh, I have been reading
as you mentioned that the House had been settled and
then it's, uh, the Republicans have the majority. But I
think I don't know as CNN or MSNBC or NBC
called that yet.

Speaker 8 (01:56:14):
No, I don't think they have.

Speaker 9 (01:56:15):
And I think they're they're all relying on different projection desks,
right like, so CNN relies on its own desk, and MSNBC,
I think was on NBC News is projection desk.

Speaker 8 (01:56:26):
But I mean the we're we're looking.

Speaker 9 (01:56:29):
At decision desk HQ, and they got it at at
least when I went to bed last night and nineteen
House Republican.

Speaker 8 (01:56:40):
Yeah. Yeah, So the Republicans were over the top, and
I think they you know, there's a pathway to a
few more seats there.

Speaker 9 (01:56:48):
So, but the the dishric that put it over the
top is one is CO money out in Arizona. And
the thing that was actually pretty cool about that one
there is that that is where the turning point action. Guys,
we're out there ballot chasing, and so there's some exciting
stuff coming on that front. I think for the Republicans

(01:57:11):
is that I do think that these efforts that we
saw from group's White Turning Point and other conservative organizations
around the country that we're actually going out and doing
ballot chasing may have made the difference here, making this
a trifecta for the Republicans with the White House, the House,
and the Senate.

Speaker 1 (01:57:31):
I'm shocked that Carrie Lake didn't pull it off out there.
I mean it seemed like, you know, obviously Trump on Arizona,
there's been well, as you mentioned, the one that pushed
it over the top from to eighteen to two nineteen.
Now we started off with I guess I should say we,
but the Republicans started off with what two twenty two

(01:57:52):
majority at the start of this, so we're still.

Speaker 8 (01:57:56):
So I think it was around there. So we're about
right around there.

Speaker 1 (01:58:04):
I wish it was a little a little higher than that,
but we'll take what we can get. And I'm surprised
with you know, Arizona going red and uh the race
is going out there, that somehow they chose somebody else
in guyega As as opposed to her. That's amazing to
me because you seemed to me to be a fairly

(01:58:26):
good candidate and I had a lot of you know,
good talking points and didn't seem like she got out
debated by anybody. But it's interesting to see how that
fall fell.

Speaker 8 (01:58:38):
Well, I think there's a lot of things, and there's
there's this is this is actually.

Speaker 9 (01:58:42):
Something I've been looking into since the election last week,
is that we're seeing this kind of around the country
a little bit, right. We see it in Arizona, we
see it in Nevada, similar story at the center race there.
We see it in Michigan, Wisconsin, and in some key
congressional places on the country where people voted for Trump

(01:59:02):
but then they either didn't vote for down ticket or
they voted Democrat down ticket. And so I think there's
some concerns here for the Republican establishment in that, you know,
people like Speaker Johnson, people like you know, whoever wins
the Senate Republican leader position. I don't know who that's
going to be in.

Speaker 8 (01:59:23):
That election tomorrow.

Speaker 9 (01:59:24):
Uh And I don't even know if Johnson will be
the Speaker. We'll see if that he holds it together
or not here. But the point is that I would
just say that there's a message to those folks in
these election results that if they revert back to being
Republicans of the past, uh you know that do establish

(01:59:44):
a Republican Chamber of Commerce things, then they're gonna lose,
right Like, So they have to go for it on
truly economic nationalist policies that Donald Trump championed, like the
trade deals, like the tariffs like uh, you know, very

(02:00:06):
hardcore immigration views, like not going after healthcare like uh,
you know, there's a lot of things that the Republicans
need to change in their way, like the no wars
right like. So, I think that the Republicans need to
be uh you know, they need to keep performing, and

(02:00:26):
if they don't, they don't take the right lessons away
from these election results, and they think that they have
some kind of a carte blanche mandate to do Paul Ryanism.
They're wrong, and if they go down that.

Speaker 8 (02:00:38):
Route, they're going to lose the.

Speaker 9 (02:00:40):
Games that Donald Trump made them.

Speaker 1 (02:00:41):
Absolutely, they're going to give an open door to the
Democrats revising themselves and finding the phoenix rising out of
the ashes. We're talking about Matt Matt Boyle, he's bureau
chief for Brightbart News and the the thing that you
I would okay, I can. I can understand the legacy

(02:01:03):
media or whatever the hell. I just refer to them as,
you know, the spoon fed regurgitators. I think they're a
lost cause journalism with them. They haven't committed journalism in
a long time. They've been mostly a pro propaganda arm
of the DNC, And so I can understand if they've
drank the kool aid and that they totally believe the

(02:01:24):
lies and so on there, that it would be very
difficult to dissuade them from you know, this disaster that,
especially for their candidate. I would think the argument would
be a little easier for the Rhino Republicans to look
at this and say, hey, you know, we've been wrong.
We were wrong back in twenty sixteen, we were wrong

(02:01:44):
in twenty twenty, we were wrong this year, and we've
been wrong all the way along. Maybe it's time for
us to do some introspective and look at what we've
been pushing versus what the people want, and maybe change
our ways and kind of move a little bit more
at least to the center or to the right. And
you would think that they would be doing this, but
it's it's like so many people have a difficult time

(02:02:09):
admitting they're wrong or need to change their ways. And
that's the thing that if this doesn't if this key continues,
this was really I think this is going to.

Speaker 9 (02:02:20):
Well, yeah, you'd think so, you'd hope so you'd hope
that they learned the right lessons from this, But I
don't think they do, right So, I mean, i'll tell
you right now, I have major concerns that the Republican
establishment is going to revert back to being the Republican establishment,
right like they think that they won some big mandate
to do Paul Ryanism. That's what Speaker Johnson thinks. I'm

(02:02:42):
telling you that right now. I was talking to staff
yesterday right like and so I'm concerned that the establishment
Republicans are going to do establishment Republican things and not
Trump things. Right Like, If they do Trump stuff, they're
going to.

Speaker 8 (02:02:56):
Win, right Like, It's really that simple.

Speaker 9 (02:02:59):
But they need to do Trump's stuff, not Mike Johnson's stuff,
not Paul Ryan' stuff. Mike Johnson didn't win this election.
Donald Trump won this election, right Johnson didn't win this election.
Donald Trump won this election, right like. And again, the
fact that there were so many losses down tickets for
Republicans and there's a lot of House seats and a
lot of Senate seats that should have went Republican, that

(02:03:21):
Donald Trump won the district or Donald Trump won the
state and the Republican candidate didn't. And I think that's
a tell that Trump's agenda's popular. Trump's vision is popular,
but theirs isn't. And this is a rejection of everything
that Mitt Romney, Paul Ryan, Jeb Bush, all these folks,

(02:03:42):
the Chamber of Commerce, et cetera, all stand for. And
there's an affirmation of what Donald Trump stands for. I mean,
they got to go for it on deportation on day one.
You know, they have to deport five million illegal aliens
a year at a minimum, right like. And if they
don't do that, and they back off or they chicken out,
they're gonna lose, right like.

Speaker 8 (02:04:03):
It's really that simple.

Speaker 9 (02:04:04):
So I as much as we should be celebrating Donald
Trump's historic victory, I think we should also be taking
great pains to learn from the election results. And that's
what I'm trying to go through here, because I'm concerned
that these people are gonna sabotage Donald Trump again, just
like they did the first time. I was very concerned

(02:04:26):
back when we were covering the first administration that Paul
Ryan and Mitch McConnell had their knives out for him.

Speaker 8 (02:04:31):
And that's exactly what happened.

Speaker 9 (02:04:32):
They did, right like, and they screwed the whole thing up.
And look at what ended up happening right now, Donald
Trump pulled out the greatest comeback political comeback in the
history of mankind, right like. We've never seen anything like this,
and in the history of civilization, right like, inhuman civilization,
we've never seen anything like Donald Trump's political comeback here,
nothing ever like it. And and now these people may

(02:04:54):
sabotage them again, right like, So I think we need
to be on guard, and you know, yes.

Speaker 1 (02:05:00):
The victory well more more so, more so active, more
so instead of on guard. We need to keep up
the activism. We need to pay attention we have. We're
on the verge of pushing through and getting what so
many of us has talked about over the years of
what we want. It's up to us to make sure

(02:05:21):
that we put our pressure on our congressman, on our
senators to do the will of the people. And as
you talk about the Chamber of the Chamber of Communism,
that we hold them in check and hold their feet
to the fire. That they don't represent them, they represent us.
They don't represent some of the special interests. They represent

(02:05:43):
the people. And where you know, you have a situation
where Donald Trump comes along with this election and wins
in a massive landslide, and with him comes these coattails
for some of these people that flip the seats, and
just because somebody maintain their seat or even lost their
seat should be an indication that the old guards should

(02:06:03):
be on their way out. And I don't understand why,
you know, I don't know what a fear factor is.
I don't know why people are opposing or not opposing
with the pitchforks and torches against the Republican establishment because
they have sold us down the river for fall far
too long. We need to pick this up on the
other side of the break. Matt, can you can hang

(02:06:24):
with us, can't you?

Speaker 8 (02:06:26):
Yeah?

Speaker 7 (02:06:26):
Sure?

Speaker 1 (02:06:27):
Okay. My guess is Matthew Boyle or Matt Boyle. He
is a bright part Washington Bureau chief and we're talking
about the inside scoop with Breitbart this morning. I'm Kevin

Speaker 4 (02:07:33):

Speaker 1 (02:07:41):
Eight twenty in the morning Kevin Gordon and for Brian
Thomas Fitch five KR see the talk station. My guess
is Matt Boyle. He's a bureau chief Washington bureau chief
for bright Bart News and our segment today or weekly
segment inside scroop a scoop with bright Bart News. Thanks
for hanging with us. I certainly appreciate it, Matt. And

(02:08:02):
what is amazing and well not amazing, what we need
to do as the populace. We need to be putting
pressure on our congressman and senators. We need to make
sure that we let them know that what we want
in terms of our desires. As far as this administration,
we had a president atop of the ticket that pretty

(02:08:24):
much clearly articulated his agenda. He got voted in overwhelmingly,
and it's kind of like all right, get with the
program or get out, you know, lead follower, get the
hell out of the way. And I think there needs
to be some pressure put on these squishy Republicans to
do the right thing.

Speaker 8 (02:08:46):
I couldn't agree more.

Speaker 15 (02:08:47):
I think that's the message here from the American people
is that they trust on Trump inquisitly, right like, they
voted for him overwhelmingly landslide election, national popular vote victory,
more electoral votes than he had the first.

Speaker 7 (02:09:03):
Time he won.

Speaker 8 (02:09:04):
And this after everything that he's done through, right like,
all the legal issues, all the impeachments, and all the
weaponization and everything they came after him on, and he's
still won bigger than he ever did. It's the biggest
victory or Republican presidential candidate has ever had an American history.
And yeah, I mean maybe literally even try to sell

(02:09:27):
nudgers once but twice, right, so at least that we
know of maybe more than that.

Speaker 9 (02:09:32):
So the and then in addition to that, again, biggest
Republican victory of Republicans ever had. It's a historic win
for Donald Trump. And but that being said, it's not
a historic win for the rest of the Republican Party.
It's clear Trump dragged these people into office with him,

(02:09:52):
right Like, So the the I mean, look the Pennsylvania
Center race that that that went Republican here because Ronald
Trump helped carry Dave McCormick into the seat. Similar type
of a situation in the House of Representatives. Again, it's
nothing that Speaker Johnson did that carried the House Republicans
in the majority. It's one hundred percent Donald Trump that

(02:10:15):
carried these battleground districts over the top. And and it's
the people that were out there working to elect Donald
Trump that led to the you know, down ticket wins
like I mentioned Lalan Sascomani one that put them over
the top for two hundred eighteen last night. So but
that's the thing is that I don't think and by
the way, we would have had a majority if Speaker

(02:10:36):
Johnson did his job. I want to be clear, we
wouldn't have had to wait a week for after the
election to be able to talk about the House Republican
majority that they won. There are districts on the East
Coast that that they that Speaker Johnson lost in this
election that should have went Republican, like Virginia's seventh district,
like main second district that if those two had gone Republican,

(02:11:01):
there would have been a clear House Republican majority far
sooner than these West Coast calls that are finally coming
in out of California in Arizona. So we shouldn't have
to wait for California and Arizona. And if they again,
if we had Republican leadership that did their job, we
would be in a lot better position than we're in
so and a lot of mistakes on the Republican establishments.

Speaker 1 (02:11:23):
So just to you know, yeah, and it ought to
be very clear to anybody that is in elected office
that the spoon fed regurgitators in the mainstream media journalism
has not been committed by them in a long time,
and that they're merely a propaganda arm for the DNC,
And they have no influence with all of the what

(02:11:46):
eighty five percent negative coverage, no ninety percent coverage of
Donald Trump being negative, ninety five percent being positive for Kamala,
and they weren't able to sway the election. Obviously nobody's
paying attention to them. They have no influence over the people.
So if you're doing something, uh, you know, on the border,
or you're doing something in terms of tax policy, if

(02:12:07):
you're doing anything in terms of regulation, if you're getting
hounded and beaten up on CNN, realize the fact that
nobody's watching them, nobody's going to be paying attention to them,
and you should ignore them. Pay attention to what your
people are saying.

Speaker 8 (02:12:22):
Arguably, the biggest loser this election is the establisher media.
I think they've never been weaker. I think that the
across the board, we've seen them repeatedly try in sale,
but this is the worst they've ever been. I mean,
they really went for it on this election, right, They
tried calling doll fell in, they tried, you know, the

(02:12:45):
all every single leader, narrative, state story that they pushed
in the lead up to the elections just blew up
on them repeatedly and again. Their influence is waiting. The
one thing, the one place they still have influences with
the political insiders. You're right, right. So the point is
that the members of Congress need to remember nobody cares
when the establish the media comes a calling and uh uh,

(02:13:08):
and they just blow them off. Right, they needn't want
to how to fight. Somebody needs to go in there
and teach them how to fight. Right, they teach these
Republican members how to fight a lot of them are
good decent artist people. Don't get me wrong, exactly like
they're good decent artist people. They just don't know they have.
We're going through the school of hard knocks that like
people with Frank art has and so yeah.

Speaker 1 (02:13:26):
I think the important thing they want to do is
to uh I'm sure most of the congressional offices. I'm
sure that a lot of the administrative staff, and I'm
sure that a lot of the so called uh well
government employees and so on. I'm sure there are televisions
in those offices and stuff. Somebody needs to walk in there,
flip on the television and if CNN, MSNBC or some

(02:13:50):
of these other media outlets come up instead of Fox
News or Bribart or somebody, that's the problem and need
to get rid of them because that's who is your
ally at this point. And I say that tongue in cheek,
but you know, when we see Chris Wallace leaving CNN MSNBC,
raiders ratings are cratering, and they claim that their ratings

(02:14:14):
are cratering because of their viewers are tuning out the
Trump victory coverage. Well, there has been no victory coverage.
It's all been the sour grapes, the fact that we're
going to hell in a handbasket, that Hitler has been
elected and so on, and people are saying, well, well,
you told us that Hitler was an existential threat, and

(02:14:36):
now we got Biden inviting him to the White House.
I mean, I don't see, you know, Hitler being invited
to number ten Downing Street when Winston Churchill was Prime Minister.
So were they lying to us, Well, obviously they were, yeh.

Speaker 8 (02:14:54):
I just think that the media blew it on this election.

Speaker 15 (02:14:57):
I mean, the.

Speaker 8 (02:15:00):
Last big story they did, the last big hurral before
election day. Who's the whole Madison Square garden thing and
the whole Puerto Rican thing? Right like, they're flipping out
about the drugs from the comedian.

Speaker 9 (02:15:09):
Well you understand what happened on election day.

Speaker 8 (02:15:12):
The Republicans actually lipped the governor's mansion and now control
the governor's mansion in Puerto Rico. Yeah, right, Like, so
the people in Puerto Rico and Puerto Rican voter has
voted more for President Trump and Republicans than they ever had,
right like, and so among the many demographics that switched
right like, So it's just like every single attack that

(02:15:35):
they put forward backside every single one, right like, and
so uh, you know the Atlantic Magazine, like all these places,
I mean, all the nonsensical stories and the crazy stuff
that they did just is you know.

Speaker 9 (02:15:50):
Who, you're gonna believe me or you're lying eyes right like.

Speaker 8 (02:15:53):
I mean, that's the point, is that all of these
narratives that they put forward just.

Speaker 1 (02:15:56):
Totalize absolutely, Matt. We're up against heartbreak here and I
will appreciate your time today. I hope to do this
again with you sometime soon because a lot of great
insights and listeners need to hear this. And those of
you that are out there that hear this, call your friends,
call your relatives, get them to call their congressman, senators.
Make sure you continue to hold their feet to the fire,
and then we get the agenda that we want. Thank

(02:16:18):
you so much, Matt. I certainly appreciate it.

Speaker 7 (02:16:21):
You bet anytime, all righty, take.

Speaker 1 (02:16:22):
Care phone numbers five, one, three, seven, five hundred. I'll
give that when we come back. Kevin Gordon in for
Brian Thomas, fifty five KR see the talk station a
you line the prevailing opinion eight thirty three in the morning,

(02:16:45):
Kevin Gordon in for Brian Thomas fifty five KRC, the
talk talk station. I saw this story and they've been
talking about it at the top of the news, and
it's going to be interesting to see how this news
the top of the hour, interesting how this plays out.
Purina plant in Claremont County evacuated after a bomb threat.

(02:17:05):
Perina pet Care plant Williamsburg Township was evacuated Monday Monday
morning after a bomb threat was made against the plant,
according to Claremont County Sheriff's Office. Clarmont County said that
the press release at nine to twelve, an employee called
to report a note that had been discovered in a
porta potty at the plant, indicating that there was a
bomb inside the facility. Is in the three They did

(02:17:26):
give the address and everything. Now further on in the story,
they indicate that this plant is apparently still under construction.
They don't have the details as to how much operational
this plant is, which is why there's a porta potty
there on site. They said that eventually the plant is
going to fully operational. Hiring has begun at the job's facility.

(02:17:46):
Perina website says there will be three hundred jobs in total. Now,
in the story they mentioned that everybody at the site
and nearly nine hundred employees were on the site at
the time, so that would be construction workers as well
as a plant employees. Now, remember a few months ago
that there was a quote bomb threat. Somebody came out

(02:18:07):
of the bathroom at a home depot and he was
passing somebody in the hallway and said, you know, there's
a bomb. I just left a bomb in there, And
so the guy got panicked and called the police. He
was detained. This guy was detained, and here it was
just you know, referring to what he had left in
the toilet in terms of a stinky bomb. And I'm

(02:18:30):
wondering if somebody just being playful because of it being
a porta potty and how those things can smell from
time to time, and especially when you get the situation
where you got seventy eighty degree temperatures out there, those
things get a little ripe. And I'm sure that you know,
being in there that maybe as a joke out put

(02:18:51):
this note there. Now, in the investigation of this, they
said it's in an area where there's no security cameras.
But the interesting thing is that I don't imagine somebody
would come forward and say, hey, it was just a joke.
I just put that note in there, because when you
look at the amount of you know, the evacuation, the
shutting down the facility for the day, the lost wages,

(02:19:13):
the people being sent home, maybe the company had to
compensate the people for being there on site, the rescue
workers or the emergency management people that showed up, all
the equipment costs, what it costs to roll out all
that sort of stuff. I don't know that somebody would
actually step up to the plate and admit that, oh,
I was just you know, I was just making a
joke that you know, this place thinks. But it's gonna

(02:19:35):
be interesting to see how this pans out and whether
or not they'll actually ever solve whatever happened there. So anyway,
it's kind of interesting. Phone numbers five one, three, seven, four, nine,

Thanks so much for calling.

Speaker 14 (02:21:18):
How you doing, Kevin?

Speaker 1 (02:21:19):
I'm doing great.

Speaker 12 (02:21:22):
Hey.

Speaker 16 (02:21:22):
I just to follow up on your your last caller.
You guys were talking about how the press has been
and they're hard to watch. I mean, I turn them
on just like I think a lot of people probably do,
just to watch them whine and see what they're gonna say,
and they just go down the same path and you
and besides fascist and Hitler, he's a racist, and he's
a misogynist, and he's all these other cysts.

Speaker 14 (02:21:44):
You reference the the the uh Madison Square Guard rally.
We're in the Puerto Rico situation. And I don't know
a lot of people know this or not, but there
really is a trash crisis going on in Puerto Rico. Yes,
the press, of course, did not care to share with everybody.
That's all I'm gonna say.

Speaker 4 (02:22:04):
And I'll let you comment on.

Speaker 14 (02:22:05):
I'm gonna turn my radio back up.

Speaker 1 (02:22:08):
Okay, okay, all right, thanks so much for the call.
You know, and That's a very important point because you
know when that comment was made, and it was not
made about the Puerto Rican people. It was made about
the country itself. And I wasn't aware of this trash problem.
I'm not aware that this was going on, and so
I dug a little bit deep into it, and yes,

(02:22:29):
there has been an ongoing problem, going back to twenty
twenty one, when they were saying that a lot of
these landfills were starting to get overflowing and that it
was starting to affect the groundwater, a story that I had.
I don't think i've got it with me today, but
I remember looking at it, and there's pictures of all
these people walking in their villages or in their cities

(02:22:50):
with these face masks on because of the pollutants. One
sitting in her home with all this cancer medication lined
up on the bar, where they talk about how much
cancer drugs she's taking because of the polluted water and
the polluted groundwater as a result of all this trash. Now,
of course nobody's admitting it that it's from this trash,
but you know, with the smell and the stench and

(02:23:11):
so on, that this is what's going on. And I
find it interesting that the party that keeps talking about
that we want to get on which we're in power,
we want to bring in Washington, D C. As a state,
which was never intended by our founding fathers. Also they
want to bring in Puerto Rico as a state, which

(02:23:32):
would give them basically two more Senate seats per location,
two in Washington, D C. And two in Puerto Rico,
which will then give them a much bigger or give
them a higher majority or the majority in the Senate.
And yet these people that talk about wanting to care
so much about Puerto Rico want them into the family,

(02:23:54):
so to speak, haven't done a damn thing to help them,
haven't done anything to put this on the radar screen
of what we do about this. Also, when you got
j Lo and you got all these people that are
Puerto Rican born that were outraged at this comment, which
again it was made about the country. It was made
about the garbage problem they have there, and not the

(02:24:16):
people themselves. Of course, they bought a hook line and
sinker from the spoon fed regurgitators in the mainstream media
that this is trashing the entire population of Puerto Ricans. Well,
the Puerto Ricans themselves apparently knew what was being talked about,
and a lot of Puerto Ricans voted for Republicans. So

(02:24:37):
I asked, okay, I guess j Lo and these multi
millionaires or billionaires that are from Puerto Rico that have
lived there, that still have family there, that what they're
not paying attention to there are people's plight down there.
They don't visit there and say what do they do?
Just go up and show there in a vacation and
sit in a lamp of luxury, rather than finding out

(02:24:59):
from the uh people down there what they're wants and
needs are, if everything's okay in their in their home country.
Instead it's just they go to vacation or talk to
go to the gated communities and so on, and don't
pay attention to what's going on with the people. And
this is the problem with the Democratic Party. And you know,

(02:25:20):
I got to throw this in here too. All of
these people that were invited to Kamala Harris's fundraisers, or
not fundraisers but rallies, most of them were paid. We
saw that oprah win fee as I call her now,
because it's not free, it's woll oprah Win fee was
paid a million dollars in order to attend this. I

(02:25:40):
heard that that there were some some entertainers were paid
three million dollars to show up. Now, if you're paid
to do a sponsorship of somebody, how much do you
believe wouldn't you think that if you're an entertainer and
you support a particular candidate, that you'd say, Hey, I'm
not going to donate my time. I'm going to pay

(02:26:03):
for my musicians to show up. I'm going to pay
for the infrastructure so that this is no expense to
the campaign. And yeah, okay, it might be an in
time contribution, but it is what it is. And so
the fact that they don't care about their own people
and then try to push it off on the Republicans
is if they don't care when they're the ones that
have been ignoring this problem from as long as as

(02:26:24):
early as back in twenty twenty one, it's amazing that
they can actually hold their head up high and actually
point the figure at anybody. It's absolutely amazing. And the
legacy media, the spoon federal gurgitators in the mainstream media,
they're dead. They have no influence anymore. It's obvious with
their coverage eighty five ninety percent of negative coverage of

(02:26:45):
Donald Trump eighty five or ninety to ninety five percent
positive coverage of Kamala Harris, and that wasn't enough to
push her over. As a matter of fact, made people
more and more attracted to Donald Trump because of the
unfairness of the coverage. And so when you have stuff
going on like that, Yeah, I flip on MSNBC. I
flip on. It's fun to talk to turn them on

(02:27:07):
now because now I can laugh at them because I
realize they have no influence and all they're saying is lies.
It is proven by the election results. Five one, three, seven,

Eight fifty one in the morning, Kevin Gordon in for
Brian Thomas. Fit's a five KRC the talk station looking
over the show. I want to thank Matthew Boyle from
Washington Bureau chief from Bright part News for spending time
with us in the eight o'clock well the top of
this hour and all the calls and everybody that called
in today, and a lot of great topics and a
lot of great subject matter brought up to kind of

(02:29:04):
wrap up here a little bit with some of this
stuff that I'm seeing. MSNBC ratings crater on Thursday as
viewers turned tune out China, let's see feeling of dread
spreads across federal workforce. Chris Wallace out at CNN after
three years. This MSNBC story is very interesting, the fact

(02:29:25):
that NBC saw their audience crater on Thursday to just
days after, just days after, the left of center network
beat CNN and election night ratings for the first time ever.
Thursday's total average daily viewer on Fox News came into
two point six million and three hundred and seventy five
thousand in the coveted eight twenty five to fifty four demographic. Meanwhile,

(02:29:50):
MSNC MSNBC brought in only five hundred and ninety six
thousand total viewers compared to Fox's two point six CNN
brought in just four hundred and nineteen thousand total viewers,
basically a quarter or less than a quarter of what
Fox News did that night. Fox News was up sixty

(02:30:13):
percent year over year from the day, while MSNBC and
CNN were down twenty three and forty percent, respectively. CNN
and MSNBC has as they have shed fifty thirty to
fifty four percent of their recent viewers. Alex Wagner had
her lowest rating show ever in terms of total viewers.

(02:30:34):
Chris Hayes saw a show brought in the worst numbers
since May of twenty sixteen. Now, isn't it interesting that
the headline here MSNBC ratings crater on Thursday night as
viewers tune out the subheading MSNBC ratings crater as viewers
tune out Trump victory coverage. Well, if you tuned into

(02:30:56):
any of those networks, you know it wasn't victory coverage.
It was more sour grapes and criticism and talking about
how Hitler was elected and all this sort of stuff.
In other words, just the continuation of the lives that
were done all during the election and the fact that
people that didn't move the needle one way or the other.
And the fact that they people realize that they've been
lied to probably said, you know what, We're going someplace

(02:31:18):
else for our news. How this story feeling of dread
spreads across federal workforce as second Trump term looms, much
of the federal workers on edge, embracing itself for the
likelihood it's ranks will be purged when President elect Donald
Trump takes office. Now this is a story from CNN,
so you can imagine the slant here. Trump, who has

(02:31:40):
derided civil civil servants as agents of the deep state,
promised on the campaign trail to reinstate a twenty twenty
executive order known as Schedule Left, giving him the power
to commence mass firings of nonpartisan federal employees who might
spoil Trump's partisan plans. They talk about that Trump loyalist

(02:32:02):
vision and already having a profound chilling effect in the
career employees, and so on and so forth. Now, I
guess it's okay that if they are of a liberal
mind and support the Democratic deep state and are trying
to sabotage a Republican administration, that's okay. They're you know,
it's it's okay to have partisanship in the first person,

(02:32:26):
but not partisanship in the third person. It's they you
are allowed to be partisan on our side, but you're
not allowed to be a partisan on their side. Well, folks,
that wraps it up for us. Stay tuned for Glenn Beck.
It's been a pleasure. Thank you so much for all
the phone calls and everything. I'm Kevin Gordon in for
