Speaker 1 (00:08):
This is America with Rich Valdez, powered by poliitweek dot
com and Rich.
Speaker 2 (00:14):
Valdez is with US former Christian Administration official.
Speaker 1 (00:16):
He works at Chris Christie and falls each on a
lot of public service stuff.
Speaker 3 (00:19):
Rich Valdez calumnist now with the Washington Times.
Speaker 4 (00:21):
This is America, Richiev. You're on the air with a
Nation Nation with America.
Speaker 1 (00:27):
With your host, Rich Valdez.
Speaker 4 (00:30):
What's up, America.
Speaker 3 (00:31):
I am Rich Valdez Valdez with an s at Rich
Valdez on all of the social media when asked Nochez,
it is a pleasure to be with you guys.
Speaker 4 (00:40):
God bless each and every one of you.
Speaker 3 (00:42):
And I want to get into a couple of things
that are going on here right It's Wednesday night edition
of the program, December third, and what a day to
be alive in America, the land of opportunity, even where
the snowflakes are falling.
Speaker 4 (00:55):
And I'm not just talking about the ones in DC.
Speaker 3 (00:57):
I'm talking about you know, these lines that I'm seeing
that there are people getting snow in some parts of
the country. So I guess that's exciting for some for
others maybe not so much. But either way, we got
to keep that same upbeat energy because no matter what
kind of storm we're facing, whether it's snow or the left,
we got to dance right through it like a med anga,
(01:18):
you know what I'm saying. So first up, we got
a bunch of Americans, millions in fact, that are waking
up to inches of fresh snow after the big Powerhouse
winter storm was sweeping through certain parts of the country.
Mother nature giving us a little bit of a backlash.
I guess we're a blessing depending on how you want
(01:38):
to look at it. But you know, shoveling is like
free cardio for some people, right. I've kind of switched
my cardio from being on the treadmill to doing the Staremaster,
and I gotta tell you, it's so much harder, so
much harder, and it's so much harder when you don't
use hands right, keep your hands at your sides or
put them in the air or whatever. Just don't hold on, man,
you don't hold on. It becomes like a core workout too.
(02:01):
It's really really something. Anyway, I want to get into
a bunch of things right because we're talking about we
got this border stuff that continues the boldness of the
drug traffickers. Right, that stuff continues. They were beating up
Secretary Heg Sath and President Trump and Tom beat those saying, oh,
these guys are masked murderers.
Speaker 4 (02:19):
They're terrible, they're this, and they're that.
Speaker 3 (02:21):
Well, turns out the guys climbing out of the boat
trying to get back in the boat, trying to call
for reinforcements, trying to salvage the drugs actually was released.
There was no cover up, There was none of that.
A lot of stuff was fake, phony fraud, right. The
even the folks from ABC News and I'll get into
(02:44):
that in a moment, but even they had to acknowledge it.
But there's also some stuff coming out of California. Steve
Hilton from the Fox News channel, you might remember him,
he's running from governor and he's now establishing a tip
line to expose for after that whole billion dollar mess
in Minnesota. What a scandal, my mother would say, kikanao.
(03:09):
But bravo to Steve Hilton. Transparency is what we need
in California. It's what we need actually all across our government.
And you know, like many Peopleabwela has always said, you
see something, say something, see the iago, right, you got
to do something about it anyway. Uh, we'll try to
clean house here and make America more efficient again. And
(03:30):
we're doing that one whistleblower at a time. And this
is a time where you know, you've got so called
whistleblower is coming out this edition six and others saying, oh,
this is no good. What's going on with these drug boats,
et cetera, et cetera, et cetera. And you've got also
the people saying, oh, this this targeting of the Somalian
(03:50):
community of refugees in Minnesota and in Michigan and elsewhere,
it's racist. And listen, who doesn't love a good racist trope?
Right when you're in the media, right, the yellow journalists
out there, they love to run with something like that.
The problem is this just isn't reality. It's not actually
(04:12):
a thing. And this is where it gets complicated for them.
Speaker 4 (04:15):
Right.
Speaker 3 (04:15):
The saga continues between El Trompeto and ilhan Omar.
Speaker 4 (04:21):
And this time, now you've got the mayor there.
Speaker 3 (04:23):
You've got the police chief there, You've got so many
people weighing in on all these different things that are
going on. She says Trump's a racist. She says she's garbage.
She could leave the country. And I got to tell you,
I think that President Trump is taking a hardline approach
here because it's necessary, right, It's an absolute necessary message
(04:46):
that has to be brought to the table, not that
she's garbage. And that's the fluff.
Speaker 4 (04:52):
Of it, right.
Speaker 3 (04:53):
What's really important here is there are things that are
going on that are a culturally incompatible with the country.
That's probably the least significant, and I'll say that to
be the least because that leads into the next part,
which means these are issues of national security. And I'll
get to the third part, which I think is the
most important part along with national security, straight up fraud.
(05:17):
When you've got all this money, billions of dollars that
we now have reason to believe was being funneled to
Al Shabab, a terrorist group that runs piracy and other
things in Somalia, you got to stop and say, hold
on a second, what's going on? And you got to
ask yourself, is this happening in my state? Right in
(05:41):
New Jersey? I don't know if that's happening, but I
do know in New York there's a bunch of unexplained
funds going to different congressional districts, and I'm sure it's
happening in New Jersey. I just happened to get tips
every now and again from people who think I'm still
working with Project Veritas, and they called me and they're like, hey,
did you know the thirteenth Congressional district in New York?
A lot of funny busines is going on. These guys
are sending money, They're getting it right out Washington, sending
(06:03):
it right to Haiti. I don't know how true that
is yet, I'll look into it. I'm gonna try and
bring in some of the big guns, the best researchers
I can come up with, to talk to them about that.
But bottom line here, there's a lot of funny business
going on and people are upset, and rightfully so, because man,
(06:23):
when you're talking about that type of fraud, that type
of waste, that type of abuse, let me tell you,
this is a problem for a lot of people. So listen,
those are some of the headlines I want to get into.
I also want to dig in to a couple of
other things. This Pakistani who was arrested for planning to
(06:45):
do a shooting.
Speaker 1 (06:46):
Listen to this, this police work one oh one these
officers did a absolutely great job. Last Monday night, Newcastle
County police officers on routine patrol saw a truck in
Canby Park after it was closed. Instead of just shooing
the person along, the offer made contact with twenty five
year old lukemon Khan. He was acting nervous storing the stop.
At some time, they asked mister Cohn to exit the vehicle,
(07:07):
which she refused. As police arrested the University of Delaware student,
they say they found a loaded handgun, loaded extended magazine's
body armor, and a kit to convert the glock into
a long gun. With Conn and custody, Newcastle County immediately
got the Feds involved, who got a warrant and got
into Cohn's home on Van Buren Street in Wilmington.
Speaker 4 (07:24):
But it's scared of a genie's out of me.
Speaker 1 (07:26):
Neighbors shocked to find agents slamming their way into the
row house next door. All of a sudden, we see
drones coming up and they started breaking glass. Neighbors say
they barely spoke to Conn and were shocked to learn.
Prosecutors say he had all sorts of weapons, handwritten notes
about urban warfare, tactics and body armor kits. They also
found hand drawn maps of the University of Delaware police
department and notes about.
Speaker 3 (07:46):
That is police work. One on, let me tell you, loco,
this is a crazy man. Now, of course I say
he's crazy. Others say he's a terrorist.
Speaker 4 (07:53):
All true.
Speaker 3 (07:54):
You take your pick of what you want to call
this guy. Bottom line, this guy no good, no bueno
for America. Now are we supposed to be accepting of
the term racist, xenophobe, all the rest of the things
that left is going to call us because this guy
wanted to shoot up a school and he got caught
because some cops did their job. That's fantastic, by the way,
kudos to law enforcement. Listen, I'm all about this, and
(08:14):
I don't care where this guy comes from. I don't
care that he's a radical, radicalized Islamic fundamentalist, whatever.
Speaker 4 (08:22):
I don't prefer that.
Speaker 3 (08:24):
I think anybody who's going to be a school shooter,
a college campus shooter, a whatever shooter the cops can
get him. Shouldn't we all be celebrating this. Isn't this
something that we should celebrate. We get the left ones
to make this into some sort of race about racism right.
They want to see who can get to the moral
(08:45):
outrage first. And I think this is part of why
people are so turned off. You've got some people that
want to say it's a badge of honor.
Speaker 4 (08:54):
You know what.
Speaker 3 (08:54):
Call me a racist, call me a zenfhol, call me
whatever you want, because I love this country and I'm
not going to sit here and let terrrist through. You've
got others that are saying, look, these people are new Americans.
They're coming here to make a life better and blah
blah blah, we can't let one bad apple.
Speaker 4 (09:07):
Ruin the bunch.
Speaker 3 (09:08):
Well, hold on this report that I just played for you,
by the way, from NBC ten Philadelphia about the University
of Delaware police. This was about that guy, This one guy, Lukwan,
whatever his name was. This had nothing to do with
trying to vilify everybody else. It just happens to be
that it fits a trend where we're finding the people
that have come to this country from other places, in
particular Muslim majority countries.
Speaker 4 (09:30):
As of late, right we're seeing more of that. Now.
Speaker 3 (09:33):
Some are going to say that's the media manufacturing this hysteria.
You know, in reality, if we stop and look back
at everybody who's about to shoot up a college campus.
You know you're going to find all sorts of Catholics
and Christians and everybody else. And what's happening here is
just you know, this is cherry picking the news media. Okay,
if you say so, I haven't seen that. I played
(09:54):
you that clip yesterday when I was on NEWSMS over
the weekend or on Monday, and they the narrative is
that Jasmin Crockett was pushing was that it's immigrants commit
way less crimes than everybody else. While that may maybe
you can find some data to back this up based
on the fact that there are less immigrants in the
(10:15):
country than there are citizens. Okay, you can try and
make the argument that way, but I would say if
you do it per capita based, you know, adjusted for size,
I would say, no, you're wrong. I think and listen,
this is something I've known growing up when I was
a kid growing up. Right, We left Brooklyn when I
was I don't know, eleven, twelve years old, so I
(10:35):
did all my teenage years on this side of the
Hudson River in Hudson County, New Jersey, and I could
tell you this soundly alarmed. I'll tell you this. One
of the things that I saw growing up. There's a
town called Fairview, New Jersey, had bordered North Bergen for
whatever reason, it had way more immigrants rich. How do
you know it had more immigrants? Well, I'll tell you,
I'm not blind. I could see. But aren't you profiling?
(10:57):
Aren't these just people? How do you know you didn't
check their paper? This is that head in the sand
approach to life that isn't going to get anybody anywhere.
These were people that clearly came from a different country.
They sounded different, they spoke different, they dressed different, they
acted different. What I can tell you, on a Saturday night,
a Friday night, even maybe a Sunday, these guys would
(11:17):
be hammered, hammered, I mean balls to the wall, drunk,
walking around Bergenline Avenue, walking around all over the place.
Speaker 4 (11:28):
They would go bar hopping.
Speaker 3 (11:29):
Again, nothing wrong with that, But the only other place
I'd seen that was in Hoboken, which was more a
little bit of a college town. The Stevens people would
come out and there was a lot of bars, and
you saw a lot of that pub crawl type of thing.
All the girls that we grew up with knew stay
away from these guys because they got drunk and they
would try to do what they did back home, whether
it was Honduras, whether it was going Guatemala, where it
(11:51):
was wherever. And again, these are not attacks on all
the people in those countries. These happened to be individuals
that were coming from those countries. El Salvador amongst them,
and came here and acted up. And I can tell
you that if I had to guess, probably one hundred
percent or ninety percent of the drunken disorderly cases or
(12:11):
sexual assaults that were called into the local police department
were those guys, because it was abundantly clear they were
roaming the streets in groups three, four or five drunk, stumbling,
falling down, getting up. Sometimes you'd see them blooded up
because not because they got beat up because they fell down,
they busted their face and they keep going. So again
I bring that up to say, what, this is something
(12:32):
I've seen since I was a young guy. Really I'm
still a young guy, but I mean, you know, teenager.
The United States has a responsibility to its own citizens
to make sure that whomever comes here is respectful, compatible, consistent,
and of benefit to the United States, and that's why
(12:53):
I saw this clip of Secretary Rubio and I wanted
to make sure you heard it.
Speaker 4 (12:56):
Listen to this.
Speaker 2 (12:56):
But all radical Islamic movements in the world identify the
the West writ large, but the United States in particular,
as the greatest evil on the earth. And every chance
to have the notion that somehow Radical Islam would be
comfortable with simply controlling some province in Iraq or Syria
is just not born out by history. Radical Islam has
shown that their desire is not simply to occupy one
(13:18):
part of the world and be happy with their own
little caliphate. They want to expand. It is a revolutionary
in its nature. It seeks to expand and control more
territories and more people. And Radical Islam has designs openly
on the West, on the United States, on Europe. We've
seen that progress there as well, and they're prepared to
conduct acts of terrorism in the case of Iran nation
(13:40):
state actions, assassinations, murderers, you name it, whatever it takes
for them to gain their influence and ultimately their domination
of different cultures and societies. That's a clear and imminent
threat to the world and to the broader West, but
especially to the United States, who they identify as the
chief source of evil on the planet. The reason why
they hate the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, the leadership of
(14:02):
the UAE of Bahrain is because they've allowed the United
States to partner with them. That's why they hate them.
They consider them infidels for it. They hate Israel, but
they also hate America, and they hate anywhere in the
world that we have influenced. They seek to attack it,
including here in the homeland. If you look at the
domestic terrorists, at the attacks that happened here domestically, the
overwhelming majority of them have been inspired by radical Islamic viewpoints.
(14:24):
And that includes the shooting in the Poults nightclub in Orlando, Florida.
That includes the Saudi Pilot and Pensacola, my home state,
two attacks.
Speaker 3 (14:30):
Ultimately that again Secretary Rubio speaking with Hannity on the
Fox News channel, and again the quote that stuck out
to me here, Radical Islam has shown that their desire
is not simply to occupy one part of the world
and be happy with their own little caliphate. They want
to expand. It's revolutionary in its nature. It seeks to
(14:53):
expand and control more territories and more people. That's a
clear and imminent threat to the world and to the
broader West, but especially the United States, who they identify
as the chief source of evil on the planet. Secretary
of State Marco Rubio doing an excellent job and explaining
(15:13):
that really just quite eloquently, nothing racist or xenophobic about that.
Those are the facts he's bringing, the receipts, and that's
the truth. And he's not the only one. There are
imams that say this. There are people in Bahrain and Qatar,
in Abu Dhabi that I've heard say the same thing,
that radical Islam is ruining Islam. So when you tell
(15:36):
me now that you've got people that are coming from
countries where the easiest way the way they figured out.
And I'm not saying not everybody does scamming. There are
a lot of people that do scamming. But when you
have people that do this type of scamming, and the
scam is I'm going to marry a step a step
(15:57):
sibling or a sibling of mine in order to get
papers to stay in this country, to become a resident,
to become a citizen, it begs the question, are there
other things going on now? I don't know if it's
a racist trope or not. I don't know if there's
data to support this. I don't know if some think
tank has done the investigation into in particular this community
(16:17):
that's been called into question being inbred.
Speaker 4 (16:20):
I know that's a common thing. I hear.
Speaker 3 (16:22):
I have read that in similar situations there is inbreeding
going on, and because there is, it causes all the
things that come along with inbreeding, right, which are the
following things like birth defects, reduced immunity, people are just
less physically fit. They happen because mating between closely related
(16:43):
individuals increases the chance for offspring that will inherit two identical,
often harmful, recessive genes from the same common ancestor, which
reduces their vital genetic diversity. And you know, we've all
known these things. They cause problems. So I believe the
term for marriage that's closer than cousins is konsanganus. Konsanganius.
(17:08):
Marriage rates are significantly higher in certain cultures and within
certain religious factions.
Speaker 4 (17:17):
From what I've read, it can.
Speaker 3 (17:19):
Be permitted, but is not necessarily encouraged, and thank god, right,
so cousin marriage is generally permitted in Islam, but it's
not explicitly encouraged some Islamic scholars, such as Imam Shafi,
I'm sure I'm saying that wrong. They've discouraged it due
to potential risk of genetic defects, and rightfully so they should,
(17:43):
especially if it's practiced repeatedly across generations.
Speaker 4 (17:48):
But there are some cultural factors.
Speaker 3 (17:50):
The prevalence of knsanganist marriage is often more a reflection
of regional and cultural norms, social factors, educational levels than
more of a religious mandate.
Speaker 4 (18:02):
And I get that right.
Speaker 3 (18:03):
I think it's you know, when in Rome do as
the Romans do, and some of these rates, you know,
from twenty to fifty percent are found in the Middle
East and in North Africa.
Speaker 4 (18:15):
But obviously there's.
Speaker 3 (18:16):
Wide variations between different countries and different communities, and this
does pose a health risk. Medical professionals and other studies
point to the increased risk of autosomal recessive genetic disorders
like thalacemia, sickle cell anemia, and other things when closely
related individuals reproduce. So this is not something that is
(18:40):
particular to som Alians. I would say it's probably not
practiced very broadly in that culture, at least based on
some of the reading I've done, it is something that
does exist largely in the Middle East and in North Africa.
And you could find this stuff online, you know, just
do a quick search some of it and chat things.
Other are in different publications, the National Institutes of Health,
(19:03):
et cetera. The point is, oftentimes stereotypes are funny in
comedy and things like that, right, you know, because there's
truth to it.
Speaker 4 (19:13):
If it wasn't so true, it wouldn't be so funny.
Speaker 3 (19:15):
And I'm not saying that this is funny, right, I'm
talking more about when they, you know, somebody you know,
makes a joke about Puerto Ricans liking to dance or
being loud or something like that, that's usually true, right,
so those punchlines hit a little better.
Speaker 4 (19:29):
Anyway.
Speaker 3 (19:30):
My point here is to shed some light on what's
going on here and to say that there's a heated
debate over these things, and whether it's this Pakistani student
that's arrested for you know, having a firearm and more
than one hundred rounds of ammunition in his car. The
Armor Ballistic played the notebook outlining the possible attack on
(19:50):
the use of the University of Delaware. Excuse me, this
guy con excuse me. I called him lackwill. That was
the other guy who shot the National Guard guys I confused,
my my radicalized murderers or attempted murders.
Speaker 4 (20:01):
This is lukman Khan. Excuse me.
Speaker 3 (20:04):
My point is, and I'm not saying that these guys
are inbred. I'm saying that when you have these closely
knit societies. Again, the stereotype was true in certain places
in the United States as well, right, saying that they
know it was so rural that people marrying their cousins
and you know, all sorts of incests and stuff like that.
These things are incompatible with the rest of our culture
by and large, in the Western hemisphere, Western society, that's
(20:27):
not a thing here, you know. But for some of
these small enclaves, if you will, you have individuals in leadership,
people that are at the helm of making policy and
making decisions, like Secretary of Rubio. When they say that
we have people in particular militant factions within certain religions
that have been radicalized. And when I say certain religions,
(20:49):
I'm specifically referencing radical Islam at this point, that is
inconsistent with America. It's inconsistent with American life. This is
nothing against Muslims that are law abiding, god fearing people.
I've got nothing against them. Of course, I do belong
to an absolutist religion where I believe that my God's
the only God. These are my own personal beliefs, but
(21:11):
that doesn't mean I disrespect anybody for their view from
their opinion, interesting points, very interesting points, to say the least. Anyway,
more to come straight ahead, We're going to get into
the rest of the headlines, a lot more of what's
happening in entertainment, news, pop culture, and I don't know politics.
Speaker 4 (21:29):
You know has Totomeo. That's what I like to talk about.
Speaker 3 (21:31):
But I'd like to keep it a variety here, right,
We'd like to keep it kind of open to everybody anyway.
I'm at Rich Valdesk at richvaldest on all of the
social media. Thanks for your notes, for your comments, for
all of that stuff. We do have some additions to
the program that I'll be able to announce this week.
This week coming up is the week where we expand.
I'll be bringing some guests back into the fold as
(21:53):
well as your calls, and we're going to be doing
that soon. I'll give you the updated phone number for that.
Well we got a good one too, so anyway, keep
it locked right here on Rich Valdez.
Speaker 4 (22:04):
This is America. The forty fifth President.
Speaker 3 (22:14):
Donald Trump thinks it's an honor to speak with rich Valdez.
Speaker 5 (22:18):
Oh, very good.
Speaker 4 (22:23):
The honor is all yours. Conservative talk with a dash
of sofrito. Now here's Rich Valdez, all.
Speaker 3 (22:33):
Right, and he goes, welcome back, Rich Valdez Valdez with
an S. Happy to be with you at Rich Valdez
on all of the social media, and I want you
to hear from doctor Restef. He is the one of
the head honchos over at the CDC at the meeting
that occurred back in September, and again they're going to
be meeting again on Friday for some final determinations.
Speaker 4 (22:54):
Check this out.
Speaker 5 (22:55):
There were people that felt that we should recommend pregnant
into vaccinate for the reasons that people mentioned here, but
most of the people felt that there is strong reason
actually not to recommend them. I think that, after all,
we decided not to bring it to a vote today,
but we do hope that the FDA and the CDC
will look much more carefully into this because most of
(23:19):
us are extremely concerned about the safety and the lack
of robust evidence bought on safety and efficacy for you know,
not only pregnant women but their babies. This is something
that I think really deviates from any standards that we
knew in the past.
Speaker 3 (23:34):
The word that is doctor retze f Levi again with
the CDC. He's a member of the ACIP and listen.
This debate is about the concern that professionals in the
healthcare industry have with respect to forcing vaccinines Take two,
forcing vaccines on children and the reason being some are alleging,
(23:57):
including the Secretary of Health and Human Services, Robert Kennedy.
He says this is because drug companies want to make money.
But in reality, if your child is brand new, a
day old, why would we vaccinate them against hepatitis when
the chances of getting that are from sexually transmitted diseases
(24:17):
from maybe what are the other causes here, intravenous drug use,
getting a tattoo, that type of thing where there's some
blood swapping. If that's not the case, then why vaccinate
against that that's the argument, and again doctor Levi and
others are supporting that. And check out the latest on this.
(24:39):
This is in the New York Post and I thought
this was pretty interesting. Sorry, not the post, actually stat
News and listen to this headline. Experts say that top
FDA officials claim that COVID vaccines caused kids deaths.
Speaker 4 (24:52):
And requires more evidence.
Speaker 3 (24:53):
Vina Pisad ties ten deaths to the COVID shots, calls
for a stricter vaccine regulation and elaked memo. The Food
and Drug Administration's top vaccine regulator, asserted it in an
email to staff sent on Friday, that the COVID nineteen
vaccine caused at least ten deaths in children and called
for changes to the way the agency is regulating these
(25:15):
vaccines but excerpt take two. But experts told STAT News
they were skeptical of some of the memo's extraordinary claims
because it was not presented with detailed data. Been A Prasad,
director of the FDA Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research,
known as SIEBER, set in an email that the regulatory
(25:36):
requirements for these new vaccines would be heightened as a
result of the deaths, saying quote this is a profound revelation,
Prosad wrote in the memo, which was obtained by STAT
and has since been made available online by other news organizations.
For the first time, the United States FDA will acknowledge
that COVID nineteen vaccines have killed American children. In many cases,
(25:59):
such man and dates were harmful. Prasad wrote, it's difficult
to read cases where kids aged seven to sixteen may
be dead as the result of COVID vaccines.
Speaker 4 (26:12):
Wow.
Speaker 3 (26:13):
Prasad and other representatives of the Department of Health and
Human Services, which oversees the FDA, did not respond to
any detailed requests for comment. And you know it goes
on to say that it's unclear what the FDA's next
steps are going to be. They're going to be meeting
on Friday to have more discussion about this. Amongst the
discussion is going to be some conversation about hepatitus B
(26:38):
and you know, why are we giving those and other
vaccines to.
Speaker 4 (26:43):
Newborn babies. But a lot to unpack here. They want
to know this FDA revelation.
Speaker 3 (26:52):
Did it include cases where people had multiple shots. It's
just something where you know, if somebody try to get
a shot in a boost at the same time. These
are the things they're trying to figure out in the
cases where they're saying that children were killed. Now again
another quote from the memo. The talk about purported danger
of combined vaccines or multiple vaccines given at the same
(27:13):
visit is concerning if applied to ban or unrecommend combo
vaccines or require spacing out in a way that greatly
reduces uptake and done without evidence or harm, said Jeffrey Morris,
a professor of public health at University of Pennsylvania. So
a lot of critics are pushing back, and it begs
the question, are these critics pushing back because they are,
you know, for public health, for the public good, for
(27:36):
the safety of America, or because they are funded by
big pharma and big farmer. Says no, don't say the
vaccines are killing anybody. Now, I'm going to tell you
a little inside scoop because you know, I've had some
good travels in my life, and one of those travels,
you know, made me some friends, and one of my
(27:57):
friends ended up doing a pretty long stint in a
career in the United States Department of Health and Human Services,
where he served as an executive for something like thirty
seven years, and he was always inside and out, you know,
of work. He always was the same. He told the
company line. He believed what he was doing. And I'll
(28:19):
tell you that in the last year or so, because
he lost a brother, his tune changed.
Speaker 4 (28:26):
And he said, let me tell you.
Speaker 3 (28:28):
I had a lunch with him not too long ago,
and he said, you know, we were told these things
weren't killing anybody, he said, but I got to tell you.
After my brother, who was otherwise healthy, a veteran of
the United States military, took the vaccine, he developed myocarditis
other heart related issues. These proteins built up, messed him up,
(28:56):
and he's dead now, and God rest his soul. And
this is a scary proposition for people, especially somebody who
was there pushing these things, making sure that Americans were
healthy and safe and had access to the vaccines. And again,
I'm not saying that all vaccines are harmful to all people.
I'm saying that this vaccine that was somewhat rushed, that
(29:17):
was somewhat experimental in the delivery of it. Right, We've
had doctor Robert malone On who's inventor of the mRNA
vaccine technology and he's the first one to say that
that wasn't for vaccines, it was for gene therapy, and
that's not the delivery mechanism. That's not what mRNA was
(29:38):
created for, but it's what it was used for. And
of course there's lots of off label uses for things
that doesn't mean anything. But he specifically went on to
say that this is bad and we should not be
doing it. So he'll be speaking at the December fifth,
Friday's meeting of the FDA the CDC. Excuse me, and
I'll bring an update on some clips on that as
(29:59):
well well. But very interesting stuff that's going on, and
there's a lot of news coming out of the FDA,
a lot of news about healthcare in general. One of
the things that I saw that I thought was really interesting,
and I talked about this recently, about this major breakthrough
of blood test that can find dementia risk before symptoms
(30:20):
even start. And I thought that's pretty cool because that's
one of those things that people really suffer from. What
I don't know is all right, we identify the risk,
now what just because we know it's happening doesn't mean
you could stop it from happening. But this is an
interesting one I think people might appreciate. There's a group
(30:42):
of people that are now hospitalized with pretty severe illness
after they took these, you know, off the street type
of injections of botox that they actually bought off of
social media. One of them is a New Yorker and
this is the piece that I was looking at the
New York Post. At least one Big Apple resid was
amongst ten people hospitalized with severe illness in the US
(31:04):
after injecting botox that they brought from unlicensed sources through
social media this year. Isn't that crazy. The victims ended
up in the hospital between May and August, and they
they were served dozens of doses of botox batchelinum toxin
(31:24):
and they had to be given the anti toxin after
they injected this dangerous knockoff into their body. It's pretty
scary stuff. Three of the victims required intubation and a ventilator.
According to a health advisory from Medical People that came
out on Monday from the City of New York and
the Department of Health. No deaths were reported in connection
(31:46):
with these illegal botox injections, but some of them were
pedaled on apps like TikTok and WhatsApp, isn't that something
crazy stuff? Many of the products sold vials of white
powder without labels, instructions, or even warnings. Some of the
(32:06):
symptomatic individuals reported seeing advertisements for vendors selling batchulinum toxin
products on social media, including TikTok, and none of the
people injecting these products reportedly met the state requirements for
purchasing or administering botox products under state law in New York,
at least, botox is only available from trained, licensed professionals
(32:30):
who administer the product, but the rule hasn't stopped a
lot of at home kits where you do it yourself
with unregulated ingredients being peddled over the past. It's been
going on for about a decade, but apparently it's growing
and now you've got it an increased risk of infection
as well as life threatening botchulism that can be the
(32:50):
result of this. Now in doing your own injections, some
people just order the Korean botox. And this is again
a quote that I'm reading from a TikTok user who
wrote in the comments section of one of these botox
tutorials and said, tired of paying ridiculous amount of money
(33:12):
when the neurotoxin itself is under one hundred dollars for
one hundred units per bottle.
Speaker 4 (33:19):
Well.
Speaker 3 (33:19):
Botulism is a bacteria produced illness caused by the toxin
that's attacking the body's nerves. These symptoms might include a headache,
muscle weakness, facial paralysis, and difficulties speaking. Some symptoms suffered
by victims, at least the ones from New York included
shortness of breath imagine that right. Let's see what else here,
(33:46):
extreme weakness in the arms and legs, amongst other things.
The city's Health department issued an advisory back in April
of twenty twenty four after these botox or botulism like
illnesses were reported in New Yorkers receiving botox shots from
unlicensed providers with unverified products. But the latest excuse me,
(34:08):
the latest surge is marking a turning point in which
the victims are injecting themselves wild stuff. I mean, again,
not that wild if you're you know, taking it at
face value. But I'm just thinking about Listen, the last
thing I'm gonna do for something that's going in my
face is order it online and do it myself. Come on,
(34:28):
you've got to be kidding me. You need it to
be done right, right, You got to get the right muscle,
the right whatever. I mean, they're supposed to know what
they're doing. I know for one thing for sure, I
don't know what I'm doing right. I was a barber,
not a botox person. Doesn't mean I can't become one,
but trust me, I have no idea what I'm doing there. So,
and I would say that's the truth for most of
(34:49):
us that are listening to this right now. So anyway,
that's the latest on that. And they actually sentenced the doctor,
the doctor that sold the fentinel or was it fantal
I think it was ketamine, excuse me, that sold the
(35:12):
ketamine to the actor from friends Chandler bing Matthew Perry
in the week's leading up to his fatal overdose. Doctor
Placentia was the first of five defendants to be sentenced
in connection with Perry's death. Back in October of twenty
twenty three. He pled guilty to four counts of distribution
(35:33):
of ketamine, and he was sentenced to thirty months two
and a half years in federal prison plus two years
of supervised release, and a five thousand dollars. Fine, Wow,
guy ends up dead. This guy pays five grand, he
does thirty months. Listen, I guess if that worked for you,
(35:55):
probably it wouldn't work for me. Wouldn't work for me.
I don't think that's a severe enough right Listen. I
saw a thing of a doctor getting five years in
federal jail for just defrauding health insurance. Guy was working
with Amtrak employees and they would bring him the insurance
(36:16):
card and he would just say, oh, I did this,
I did this, I did this, you know, building for
services he never rendered into the millions and millions of dollars.
Was getting rich on it, and he was splitting it,
you know, giving them a kickback. This guy got five
years in jail for robbing money that was likely insured.
This is somebody dead, fatal overdose. Why profit right? They
(36:44):
wanted to make money on this guy. That's it wild anyway.
The other defendants that are awaiting sentencing, listen to this.
Jazz Vene Senga, the ketamine queen, facing up to sixty
five years. Her sentencing is scheduled for the twenty fifth
(37:08):
of February twenty twenty six. Eric Fleming's facing up to
twenty five years, scheduled for January seventh, twenty twenty sixth
Kenneth Imoasa Perry's assistant, faces up to fifteen years. His
sentencing is scheduled for January fourteenth of twenty twenty six
and doctor Mark Chavis faces up to ten years. He's
(37:32):
scheduled to be sentenced on December seventeenth. So I guess
this first person was the one that rolled on everybody
else and got the deal. Lucky them, look lucky them, man.
And yeah, anyway, what else do we got here? It
(37:53):
was one more let me see if there was one
more health story that I wanted to share. I flagged
the couple and I said, man, these are really interesting stories.
Really a lot of interesting stuff going on in the
world of health.
Speaker 4 (38:03):
Ah. Here it is.
Speaker 3 (38:06):
Doctor Marty Mackery. He's the Commissioner of the FDA. He says,
there is a new oh zepic type of drug coming out,
and this is going to be what they call the
new era of weight loss drugs, and it's going to
be a blockbuster. Drugs like zep bound and Wagovi have
(38:30):
already taken the US by storm with the number of
Americans using them to slim down again. This is the
piece in the post, and Big Farmer is not done
cashing in on the weight loss boom yet. Drug I
was gonna say, drug dealers and drug makers are ready
to create a new wave of next level GLP one
treatments with a lot of promise. And you know some
of the promise of these drugs it's not just weight loss,
(38:52):
because it helps control part of the brain that deals
with impulse. Some are saying that this could stop overreading,
It could stop people that have other rug and addiction issues.
I think that's worth looking at, right. If you can
use this GLP one stuff to fix your gut, fix
your brain, and make sure that people are living a
healthier life and not getting high or not overreading or
(39:12):
doing a lot of things that they did impulsively before,
that's interesting, right, This might be a huge breakthrough. Anyway,
these sky high price tags have kept a lot of
people away from getting this stuff. This new generation of
medication is not just focusing on weight loss, according to
David Lao, who's an endochronologist and a professor at the
University of Calgary, but he told The Washington Post this week,
(39:34):
he says we're talking about changes beyond what you see
on the scale. But make no mistake, these pharmaceutical companies
are aiming to help people shed even more pounds with
these new iterations of these glp ones. And of course
the way that works. The golp one is a peptide
that mimics one or two hormones that are naturally produced
(39:55):
in your gut that tell your body you're full, and
it slows down your diget questionin it lowers your blood sugar,
and it helps you stay full for a longer period
of time, which is good for you. Eli Lilly is
the drug maker that makes several of these based on
what they call try zepetide to zepatite, excuse me, And
they want to take it even further with a new
medication that targets three hormones, earning the nickname triple G.
(40:21):
Now it's in the mid stage of clinical trials. Obese
adults are receiving these weekly injections right now. It's called
I was going to call it retarded tried, but that's
not what it says. It says re tart truetide. Yeah,
retart to try. I think I got it right. And
people are losing about twenty two percent of their current
(40:42):
body weight in about eleven months. That's compared to fourteen
percent of their body weight over fifteen months with semaglutide,
which is the active ingredient in ozepic, and we go
in phase three trials, which are starting in January of
twenty twenty six, if they are approved by the FBI,
the FDA. Excuse me, Happy hump day, everybody. This will
(41:03):
be approved at that point, should it happened. In the meantime,
Lily is saying they've got other contenders, including lurinotide, a
once weekly injection that targets amelin, a hormone that's released
in the pancreas during meals. Here's a quote from doctor
Lewis Arone. He's the director of Comprehensive Weight Control at
(41:25):
Cornell will and he says we've been studying ammelin for
weight loss for over twenty years. In certain ways, it
may be a better compound, adding that it appears to
cause less lean muscle loss and fewer stomach related side effects.
Good stuff, right, I mean again, it sounds promising if
it's all true. Now, in a phase two clinical trial,
(41:47):
lorinotide patients would lose about nine percent sliding scale nine
to twenty percent of their body weight, and they didn't
hit any plateaus, suggesting they might keep dropping pounds if
they stay on this drug longer. The weight loss that
they've seen in the study does have a very significant
clinical impact, and Leana K. Billings, she's the lead author
(42:11):
of the clinical triald, she was really happy about that, saying,
with this degree of weight loss in only forty eight weeks,
we see people having improvement or resolution in other conditions
like hypertension, hyperlipidemia, osteo arthritis, sleep apnea, and more weight
related conditions.
Speaker 4 (42:27):
And let me tell you that's a win.
Speaker 3 (42:28):
You know, America is the fattest country in the world
as far as I could see, and I think that's
a good thing, right.
Speaker 4 (42:34):
That we'd be a little less fat.
Speaker 3 (42:36):
Novo Nordisk is developing their own amylin targeting drug that
also includes semiglutide, giving it a little added punch to twofer.
The clinical trials for that are delivered to delivering around
twenty percent weight loss, roughly five percent more than semiglutide
just by itself. The drug is called Cagrissima, and it
(42:59):
was generally safe you know, a little bit of nausea,
vomiting diarrhea. I sound like one of those drug commercials, right,
You know, if you have nausea, vomiting diarrhea, constipation or
other things might cause blah blah blah blah blah blah
blah blah blah. Anyway, but these are all pretty simple things,
the gastro intestinal things that seem to be common with
most of these medicines. Anyway, I'll keep you posted if
this stuff gets approved by the FDA and they go
(43:21):
into it, and then of course there's a pill coming
out which is not going to be as effective, but
you can get about ten and a half percent of
your body weight lost in about sixteen months. Lots going
on GLP ones, all these new something tides. I'm wondering
if this is going to be one of those things
in a couple of years that we go. Man, these
(43:43):
magic things are looks like they're killing everybody right the
way we're looking at the COVID vaccine.
Speaker 4 (43:47):
I hope not.
Speaker 3 (43:48):
I mean looks like, you know, there's some research, not all,
but some research here around twenty years of work at
least with ammelin and some of the other stuff. So
curious to see how this stuff pans out. But anyway,
that's the health update for today. Yeah, straight ahead, we're
gonna get into a few more topics. Don't go anywhere,
I'm Rich Valdess.
Speaker 4 (44:05):
This is America.
This is America with Rich Valdez, powered by poliitweek dot
com and Rich.
Speaker 2 (00:14):
Valdez is with US former Christian Administration official.
Speaker 1 (00:16):
He works at Chris Christie and falls each on a
lot of public service stuff.
Speaker 3 (00:19):
Rich Valdez calumnist now with the Washington Times.
Speaker 4 (00:21):
This is America, Richiev. You're on the air with a
Nation Nation with America.
Speaker 1 (00:27):
With your host, Rich Valdez.
Speaker 4 (00:30):
What's up, America.
Speaker 3 (00:31):
I am Rich Valdez Valdez with an s at Rich
Valdez on all of the social media when asked Nochez,
it is a pleasure to be with you guys.
Speaker 4 (00:40):
God bless each and every one of you.
Speaker 3 (00:42):
And I want to get into a couple of things
that are going on here right It's Wednesday night edition
of the program, December third, and what a day to
be alive in America, the land of opportunity, even where
the snowflakes are falling.
Speaker 4 (00:55):
And I'm not just talking about the ones in DC.
Speaker 3 (00:57):
I'm talking about you know, these lines that I'm seeing
that there are people getting snow in some parts of
the country. So I guess that's exciting for some for
others maybe not so much. But either way, we got
to keep that same upbeat energy because no matter what
kind of storm we're facing, whether it's snow or the left,
we got to dance right through it like a med anga,
(01:18):
you know what I'm saying. So first up, we got
a bunch of Americans, millions in fact, that are waking
up to inches of fresh snow after the big Powerhouse
winter storm was sweeping through certain parts of the country.
Mother nature giving us a little bit of a backlash.
I guess we're a blessing depending on how you want
(01:38):
to look at it. But you know, shoveling is like
free cardio for some people, right. I've kind of switched
my cardio from being on the treadmill to doing the Staremaster,
and I gotta tell you, it's so much harder, so
much harder, and it's so much harder when you don't
use hands right, keep your hands at your sides or
put them in the air or whatever. Just don't hold on, man,
you don't hold on. It becomes like a core workout too.
(02:01):
It's really really something. Anyway, I want to get into
a bunch of things right because we're talking about we
got this border stuff that continues the boldness of the
drug traffickers. Right, that stuff continues. They were beating up
Secretary Heg Sath and President Trump and Tom beat those saying, oh,
these guys are masked murderers.
Speaker 4 (02:19):
They're terrible, they're this, and they're that.
Speaker 3 (02:21):
Well, turns out the guys climbing out of the boat
trying to get back in the boat, trying to call
for reinforcements, trying to salvage the drugs actually was released.
There was no cover up, There was none of that.
A lot of stuff was fake, phony fraud, right. The
even the folks from ABC News and I'll get into
(02:44):
that in a moment, but even they had to acknowledge it.
But there's also some stuff coming out of California. Steve
Hilton from the Fox News channel, you might remember him,
he's running from governor and he's now establishing a tip
line to expose for after that whole billion dollar mess
in Minnesota. What a scandal, my mother would say, kikanao.
(03:09):
But bravo to Steve Hilton. Transparency is what we need
in California. It's what we need actually all across our government.
And you know, like many Peopleabwela has always said, you
see something, say something, see the iago, right, you got
to do something about it anyway. Uh, we'll try to
clean house here and make America more efficient again. And
(03:30):
we're doing that one whistleblower at a time. And this
is a time where you know, you've got so called
whistleblower is coming out this edition six and others saying, oh,
this is no good. What's going on with these drug boats,
et cetera, et cetera, et cetera. And you've got also
the people saying, oh, this this targeting of the Somalian
(03:50):
community of refugees in Minnesota and in Michigan and elsewhere,
it's racist. And listen, who doesn't love a good racist trope?
Right when you're in the media, right, the yellow journalists
out there, they love to run with something like that.
The problem is this just isn't reality. It's not actually
(04:12):
a thing. And this is where it gets complicated for them.
Speaker 4 (04:15):
Right.
Speaker 3 (04:15):
The saga continues between El Trompeto and ilhan Omar.
Speaker 4 (04:21):
And this time, now you've got the mayor there.
Speaker 3 (04:23):
You've got the police chief there, You've got so many
people weighing in on all these different things that are
going on. She says Trump's a racist. She says she's garbage.
She could leave the country. And I got to tell you,
I think that President Trump is taking a hardline approach
here because it's necessary, right, It's an absolute necessary message
(04:46):
that has to be brought to the table, not that
she's garbage. And that's the fluff.
Speaker 4 (04:52):
Of it, right.
Speaker 3 (04:53):
What's really important here is there are things that are
going on that are a culturally incompatible with the country.
That's probably the least significant, and I'll say that to
be the least because that leads into the next part,
which means these are issues of national security. And I'll
get to the third part, which I think is the
most important part along with national security, straight up fraud.
(05:17):
When you've got all this money, billions of dollars that
we now have reason to believe was being funneled to
Al Shabab, a terrorist group that runs piracy and other
things in Somalia, you got to stop and say, hold
on a second, what's going on? And you got to
ask yourself, is this happening in my state? Right in
(05:41):
New Jersey? I don't know if that's happening, but I
do know in New York there's a bunch of unexplained
funds going to different congressional districts, and I'm sure it's
happening in New Jersey. I just happened to get tips
every now and again from people who think I'm still
working with Project Veritas, and they called me and they're like, hey,
did you know the thirteenth Congressional district in New York?
A lot of funny busines is going on. These guys
are sending money, They're getting it right out Washington, sending
(06:03):
it right to Haiti. I don't know how true that
is yet, I'll look into it. I'm gonna try and
bring in some of the big guns, the best researchers
I can come up with, to talk to them about that.
But bottom line here, there's a lot of funny business
going on and people are upset, and rightfully so, because man,
(06:23):
when you're talking about that type of fraud, that type
of waste, that type of abuse, let me tell you,
this is a problem for a lot of people. So listen,
those are some of the headlines I want to get into.
I also want to dig in to a couple of
other things. This Pakistani who was arrested for planning to
(06:45):
do a shooting.
Speaker 1 (06:46):
Listen to this, this police work one oh one these
officers did a absolutely great job. Last Monday night, Newcastle
County police officers on routine patrol saw a truck in
Canby Park after it was closed. Instead of just shooing
the person along, the offer made contact with twenty five
year old lukemon Khan. He was acting nervous storing the stop.
At some time, they asked mister Cohn to exit the vehicle,
(07:07):
which she refused. As police arrested the University of Delaware student,
they say they found a loaded handgun, loaded extended magazine's
body armor, and a kit to convert the glock into
a long gun. With Conn and custody, Newcastle County immediately
got the Feds involved, who got a warrant and got
into Cohn's home on Van Buren Street in Wilmington.
Speaker 4 (07:24):
But it's scared of a genie's out of me.
Speaker 1 (07:26):
Neighbors shocked to find agents slamming their way into the
row house next door. All of a sudden, we see
drones coming up and they started breaking glass. Neighbors say
they barely spoke to Conn and were shocked to learn.
Prosecutors say he had all sorts of weapons, handwritten notes
about urban warfare, tactics and body armor kits. They also
found hand drawn maps of the University of Delaware police
department and notes about.
Speaker 3 (07:46):
That is police work. One on, let me tell you, loco,
this is a crazy man. Now, of course I say
he's crazy. Others say he's a terrorist.
Speaker 4 (07:53):
All true.
Speaker 3 (07:54):
You take your pick of what you want to call
this guy. Bottom line, this guy no good, no bueno
for America. Now are we supposed to be accepting of
the term racist, xenophobe, all the rest of the things
that left is going to call us because this guy
wanted to shoot up a school and he got caught
because some cops did their job. That's fantastic, by the way,
kudos to law enforcement. Listen, I'm all about this, and
(08:14):
I don't care where this guy comes from. I don't
care that he's a radical, radicalized Islamic fundamentalist, whatever.
Speaker 4 (08:22):
I don't prefer that.
Speaker 3 (08:24):
I think anybody who's going to be a school shooter,
a college campus shooter, a whatever shooter the cops can
get him. Shouldn't we all be celebrating this. Isn't this
something that we should celebrate. We get the left ones
to make this into some sort of race about racism right.
They want to see who can get to the moral
(08:45):
outrage first. And I think this is part of why
people are so turned off. You've got some people that
want to say it's a badge of honor.
Speaker 4 (08:54):
You know what.
Speaker 3 (08:54):
Call me a racist, call me a zenfhol, call me
whatever you want, because I love this country and I'm
not going to sit here and let terrrist through. You've
got others that are saying, look, these people are new Americans.
They're coming here to make a life better and blah
blah blah, we can't let one bad apple.
Speaker 4 (09:07):
Ruin the bunch.
Speaker 3 (09:08):
Well, hold on this report that I just played for you,
by the way, from NBC ten Philadelphia about the University
of Delaware police. This was about that guy, This one guy, Lukwan,
whatever his name was. This had nothing to do with
trying to vilify everybody else. It just happens to be
that it fits a trend where we're finding the people
that have come to this country from other places, in
particular Muslim majority countries.
Speaker 4 (09:30):
As of late, right we're seeing more of that. Now.
Speaker 3 (09:33):
Some are going to say that's the media manufacturing this hysteria.
You know, in reality, if we stop and look back
at everybody who's about to shoot up a college campus.
You know you're going to find all sorts of Catholics
and Christians and everybody else. And what's happening here is
just you know, this is cherry picking the news media. Okay,
if you say so, I haven't seen that. I played
(09:54):
you that clip yesterday when I was on NEWSMS over
the weekend or on Monday, and they the narrative is
that Jasmin Crockett was pushing was that it's immigrants commit
way less crimes than everybody else. While that may maybe
you can find some data to back this up based
on the fact that there are less immigrants in the
(10:15):
country than there are citizens. Okay, you can try and
make the argument that way, but I would say if
you do it per capita based, you know, adjusted for size,
I would say, no, you're wrong. I think and listen,
this is something I've known growing up when I was
a kid growing up. Right, We left Brooklyn when I
was I don't know, eleven, twelve years old, so I
(10:35):
did all my teenage years on this side of the
Hudson River in Hudson County, New Jersey, and I could
tell you this soundly alarmed. I'll tell you this. One
of the things that I saw growing up. There's a
town called Fairview, New Jersey, had bordered North Bergen for
whatever reason, it had way more immigrants rich. How do
you know it had more immigrants? Well, I'll tell you,
I'm not blind. I could see. But aren't you profiling?
(10:57):
Aren't these just people? How do you know you didn't
check their paper? This is that head in the sand
approach to life that isn't going to get anybody anywhere.
These were people that clearly came from a different country.
They sounded different, they spoke different, they dressed different, they
acted different. What I can tell you, on a Saturday night,
a Friday night, even maybe a Sunday, these guys would
(11:17):
be hammered, hammered, I mean balls to the wall, drunk,
walking around Bergenline Avenue, walking around all over the place.
Speaker 4 (11:28):
They would go bar hopping.
Speaker 3 (11:29):
Again, nothing wrong with that, But the only other place
I'd seen that was in Hoboken, which was more a
little bit of a college town. The Stevens people would
come out and there was a lot of bars, and
you saw a lot of that pub crawl type of thing.
All the girls that we grew up with knew stay
away from these guys because they got drunk and they
would try to do what they did back home, whether
it was Honduras, whether it was going Guatemala, where it
(11:51):
was wherever. And again, these are not attacks on all
the people in those countries. These happened to be individuals
that were coming from those countries. El Salvador amongst them,
and came here and acted up. And I can tell
you that if I had to guess, probably one hundred
percent or ninety percent of the drunken disorderly cases or
(12:11):
sexual assaults that were called into the local police department
were those guys, because it was abundantly clear they were
roaming the streets in groups three, four or five drunk, stumbling,
falling down, getting up. Sometimes you'd see them blooded up
because not because they got beat up because they fell down,
they busted their face and they keep going. So again
I bring that up to say, what, this is something
(12:32):
I've seen since I was a young guy. Really I'm
still a young guy, but I mean, you know, teenager.
The United States has a responsibility to its own citizens
to make sure that whomever comes here is respectful, compatible, consistent,
and of benefit to the United States, and that's why
(12:53):
I saw this clip of Secretary Rubio and I wanted
to make sure you heard it.
Speaker 4 (12:56):
Listen to this.
Speaker 2 (12:56):
But all radical Islamic movements in the world identify the
the West writ large, but the United States in particular,
as the greatest evil on the earth. And every chance
to have the notion that somehow Radical Islam would be
comfortable with simply controlling some province in Iraq or Syria
is just not born out by history. Radical Islam has
shown that their desire is not simply to occupy one
(13:18):
part of the world and be happy with their own
little caliphate. They want to expand. It is a revolutionary
in its nature. It seeks to expand and control more
territories and more people. And Radical Islam has designs openly
on the West, on the United States, on Europe. We've
seen that progress there as well, and they're prepared to
conduct acts of terrorism in the case of Iran nation
(13:40):
state actions, assassinations, murderers, you name it, whatever it takes
for them to gain their influence and ultimately their domination
of different cultures and societies. That's a clear and imminent
threat to the world and to the broader West, but
especially to the United States, who they identify as the
chief source of evil on the planet. The reason why
they hate the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, the leadership of
(14:02):
the UAE of Bahrain is because they've allowed the United
States to partner with them. That's why they hate them.
They consider them infidels for it. They hate Israel, but
they also hate America, and they hate anywhere in the
world that we have influenced. They seek to attack it,
including here in the homeland. If you look at the
domestic terrorists, at the attacks that happened here domestically, the
overwhelming majority of them have been inspired by radical Islamic viewpoints.
(14:24):
And that includes the shooting in the Poults nightclub in Orlando, Florida.
That includes the Saudi Pilot and Pensacola, my home state,
two attacks.
Speaker 3 (14:30):
Ultimately that again Secretary Rubio speaking with Hannity on the
Fox News channel, and again the quote that stuck out
to me here, Radical Islam has shown that their desire
is not simply to occupy one part of the world
and be happy with their own little caliphate. They want
to expand. It's revolutionary in its nature. It seeks to
(14:53):
expand and control more territories and more people. That's a
clear and imminent threat to the world and to the
broader West, but especially the United States, who they identify
as the chief source of evil on the planet. Secretary
of State Marco Rubio doing an excellent job and explaining
(15:13):
that really just quite eloquently, nothing racist or xenophobic about that.
Those are the facts he's bringing, the receipts, and that's
the truth. And he's not the only one. There are
imams that say this. There are people in Bahrain and Qatar,
in Abu Dhabi that I've heard say the same thing,
that radical Islam is ruining Islam. So when you tell
(15:36):
me now that you've got people that are coming from
countries where the easiest way the way they figured out.
And I'm not saying not everybody does scamming. There are
a lot of people that do scamming. But when you
have people that do this type of scamming, and the
scam is I'm going to marry a step a step
(15:57):
sibling or a sibling of mine in order to get
papers to stay in this country, to become a resident,
to become a citizen, it begs the question, are there
other things going on now? I don't know if it's
a racist trope or not. I don't know if there's
data to support this. I don't know if some think
tank has done the investigation into in particular this community
(16:17):
that's been called into question being inbred.
Speaker 4 (16:20):
I know that's a common thing. I hear.
Speaker 3 (16:22):
I have read that in similar situations there is inbreeding
going on, and because there is, it causes all the
things that come along with inbreeding, right, which are the
following things like birth defects, reduced immunity, people are just
less physically fit. They happen because mating between closely related
(16:43):
individuals increases the chance for offspring that will inherit two identical,
often harmful, recessive genes from the same common ancestor, which
reduces their vital genetic diversity. And you know, we've all
known these things. They cause problems. So I believe the
term for marriage that's closer than cousins is konsanganus. Konsanganius.
(17:08):
Marriage rates are significantly higher in certain cultures and within
certain religious factions.
Speaker 4 (17:17):
From what I've read, it can.
Speaker 3 (17:19):
Be permitted, but is not necessarily encouraged, and thank god, right,
so cousin marriage is generally permitted in Islam, but it's
not explicitly encouraged some Islamic scholars, such as Imam Shafi,
I'm sure I'm saying that wrong. They've discouraged it due
to potential risk of genetic defects, and rightfully so they should,
(17:43):
especially if it's practiced repeatedly across generations.
Speaker 4 (17:48):
But there are some cultural factors.
Speaker 3 (17:50):
The prevalence of knsanganist marriage is often more a reflection
of regional and cultural norms, social factors, educational levels than
more of a religious mandate.
Speaker 4 (18:02):
And I get that right.
Speaker 3 (18:03):
I think it's you know, when in Rome do as
the Romans do, and some of these rates, you know,
from twenty to fifty percent are found in the Middle
East and in North Africa.
Speaker 4 (18:15):
But obviously there's.
Speaker 3 (18:16):
Wide variations between different countries and different communities, and this
does pose a health risk. Medical professionals and other studies
point to the increased risk of autosomal recessive genetic disorders
like thalacemia, sickle cell anemia, and other things when closely
related individuals reproduce. So this is not something that is
(18:40):
particular to som Alians. I would say it's probably not
practiced very broadly in that culture, at least based on
some of the reading I've done, it is something that
does exist largely in the Middle East and in North Africa.
And you could find this stuff online, you know, just
do a quick search some of it and chat things.
Other are in different publications, the National Institutes of Health,
(19:03):
et cetera. The point is, oftentimes stereotypes are funny in
comedy and things like that, right, you know, because there's
truth to it.
Speaker 4 (19:13):
If it wasn't so true, it wouldn't be so funny.
Speaker 3 (19:15):
And I'm not saying that this is funny, right, I'm
talking more about when they, you know, somebody you know,
makes a joke about Puerto Ricans liking to dance or
being loud or something like that, that's usually true, right,
so those punchlines hit a little better.
Speaker 4 (19:29):
Anyway.
Speaker 3 (19:30):
My point here is to shed some light on what's
going on here and to say that there's a heated
debate over these things, and whether it's this Pakistani student
that's arrested for you know, having a firearm and more
than one hundred rounds of ammunition in his car. The
Armor Ballistic played the notebook outlining the possible attack on
(19:50):
the use of the University of Delaware. Excuse me, this
guy con excuse me. I called him lackwill. That was
the other guy who shot the National Guard guys I confused,
my my radicalized murderers or attempted murders.
Speaker 4 (20:01):
This is lukman Khan. Excuse me.
Speaker 3 (20:04):
My point is, and I'm not saying that these guys
are inbred. I'm saying that when you have these closely
knit societies. Again, the stereotype was true in certain places
in the United States as well, right, saying that they
know it was so rural that people marrying their cousins
and you know, all sorts of incests and stuff like that.
These things are incompatible with the rest of our culture
by and large, in the Western hemisphere, Western society, that's
(20:27):
not a thing here, you know. But for some of
these small enclaves, if you will, you have individuals in leadership,
people that are at the helm of making policy and
making decisions, like Secretary of Rubio. When they say that
we have people in particular militant factions within certain religions
that have been radicalized. And when I say certain religions,
(20:49):
I'm specifically referencing radical Islam at this point, that is
inconsistent with America. It's inconsistent with American life. This is
nothing against Muslims that are law abiding, god fearing people.
I've got nothing against them. Of course, I do belong
to an absolutist religion where I believe that my God's
the only God. These are my own personal beliefs, but
(21:11):
that doesn't mean I disrespect anybody for their view from
their opinion, interesting points, very interesting points, to say the least. Anyway,
more to come straight ahead, We're going to get into
the rest of the headlines, a lot more of what's
happening in entertainment, news, pop culture, and I don't know politics.
Speaker 4 (21:29):
You know has Totomeo. That's what I like to talk about.
Speaker 3 (21:31):
But I'd like to keep it a variety here, right,
We'd like to keep it kind of open to everybody anyway.
I'm at Rich Valdesk at richvaldest on all of the
social media. Thanks for your notes, for your comments, for
all of that stuff. We do have some additions to
the program that I'll be able to announce this week.
This week coming up is the week where we expand.
I'll be bringing some guests back into the fold as
(21:53):
well as your calls, and we're going to be doing
that soon. I'll give you the updated phone number for that.
Well we got a good one too, so anyway, keep
it locked right here on Rich Valdez.
Speaker 4 (22:04):
This is America. The forty fifth President.
Speaker 3 (22:14):
Donald Trump thinks it's an honor to speak with rich Valdez.
Speaker 5 (22:18):
Oh, very good.
Speaker 4 (22:23):
The honor is all yours. Conservative talk with a dash
of sofrito. Now here's Rich Valdez, all.
Speaker 3 (22:33):
Right, and he goes, welcome back, Rich Valdez Valdez with
an S. Happy to be with you at Rich Valdez
on all of the social media, and I want you
to hear from doctor Restef. He is the one of
the head honchos over at the CDC at the meeting
that occurred back in September, and again they're going to
be meeting again on Friday for some final determinations.
Speaker 4 (22:54):
Check this out.
Speaker 5 (22:55):
There were people that felt that we should recommend pregnant
into vaccinate for the reasons that people mentioned here, but
most of the people felt that there is strong reason
actually not to recommend them. I think that, after all,
we decided not to bring it to a vote today,
but we do hope that the FDA and the CDC
will look much more carefully into this because most of
(23:19):
us are extremely concerned about the safety and the lack
of robust evidence bought on safety and efficacy for you know,
not only pregnant women but their babies. This is something
that I think really deviates from any standards that we
knew in the past.
Speaker 3 (23:34):
The word that is doctor retze f Levi again with
the CDC. He's a member of the ACIP and listen.
This debate is about the concern that professionals in the
healthcare industry have with respect to forcing vaccinines Take two,
forcing vaccines on children and the reason being some are alleging,
(23:57):
including the Secretary of Health and Human Services, Robert Kennedy.
He says this is because drug companies want to make money.
But in reality, if your child is brand new, a
day old, why would we vaccinate them against hepatitis when
the chances of getting that are from sexually transmitted diseases
(24:17):
from maybe what are the other causes here, intravenous drug use,
getting a tattoo, that type of thing where there's some
blood swapping. If that's not the case, then why vaccinate
against that that's the argument, and again doctor Levi and
others are supporting that. And check out the latest on this.
(24:39):
This is in the New York Post and I thought
this was pretty interesting. Sorry, not the post, actually stat
News and listen to this headline. Experts say that top
FDA officials claim that COVID vaccines caused kids deaths.
Speaker 4 (24:52):
And requires more evidence.
Speaker 3 (24:53):
Vina Pisad ties ten deaths to the COVID shots, calls
for a stricter vaccine regulation and elaked memo. The Food
and Drug Administration's top vaccine regulator, asserted it in an
email to staff sent on Friday, that the COVID nineteen
vaccine caused at least ten deaths in children and called
for changes to the way the agency is regulating these
(25:15):
vaccines but excerpt take two. But experts told STAT News
they were skeptical of some of the memo's extraordinary claims
because it was not presented with detailed data. Been A Prasad,
director of the FDA Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research,
known as SIEBER, set in an email that the regulatory
(25:36):
requirements for these new vaccines would be heightened as a
result of the deaths, saying quote this is a profound revelation,
Prosad wrote in the memo, which was obtained by STAT
and has since been made available online by other news organizations.
For the first time, the United States FDA will acknowledge
that COVID nineteen vaccines have killed American children. In many cases,
(25:59):
such man and dates were harmful. Prasad wrote, it's difficult
to read cases where kids aged seven to sixteen may
be dead as the result of COVID vaccines.
Speaker 4 (26:12):
Wow.
Speaker 3 (26:13):
Prasad and other representatives of the Department of Health and
Human Services, which oversees the FDA, did not respond to
any detailed requests for comment. And you know it goes
on to say that it's unclear what the FDA's next
steps are going to be. They're going to be meeting
on Friday to have more discussion about this. Amongst the
discussion is going to be some conversation about hepatitus B
(26:38):
and you know, why are we giving those and other
vaccines to.
Speaker 4 (26:43):
Newborn babies. But a lot to unpack here. They want
to know this FDA revelation.
Speaker 3 (26:52):
Did it include cases where people had multiple shots. It's
just something where you know, if somebody try to get
a shot in a boost at the same time. These
are the things they're trying to figure out in the
cases where they're saying that children were killed. Now again
another quote from the memo. The talk about purported danger
of combined vaccines or multiple vaccines given at the same
(27:13):
visit is concerning if applied to ban or unrecommend combo
vaccines or require spacing out in a way that greatly
reduces uptake and done without evidence or harm, said Jeffrey Morris,
a professor of public health at University of Pennsylvania. So
a lot of critics are pushing back, and it begs
the question, are these critics pushing back because they are,
you know, for public health, for the public good, for
(27:36):
the safety of America, or because they are funded by
big pharma and big farmer. Says no, don't say the
vaccines are killing anybody. Now, I'm going to tell you
a little inside scoop because you know, I've had some
good travels in my life, and one of those travels,
you know, made me some friends, and one of my
(27:57):
friends ended up doing a pretty long stint in a
career in the United States Department of Health and Human Services,
where he served as an executive for something like thirty
seven years, and he was always inside and out, you know,
of work. He always was the same. He told the
company line. He believed what he was doing. And I'll
(28:19):
tell you that in the last year or so, because
he lost a brother, his tune changed.
Speaker 4 (28:26):
And he said, let me tell you.
Speaker 3 (28:28):
I had a lunch with him not too long ago,
and he said, you know, we were told these things
weren't killing anybody, he said, but I got to tell you.
After my brother, who was otherwise healthy, a veteran of
the United States military, took the vaccine, he developed myocarditis
other heart related issues. These proteins built up, messed him up,
(28:56):
and he's dead now, and God rest his soul. And
this is a scary proposition for people, especially somebody who
was there pushing these things, making sure that Americans were
healthy and safe and had access to the vaccines. And again,
I'm not saying that all vaccines are harmful to all people.
I'm saying that this vaccine that was somewhat rushed, that
(29:17):
was somewhat experimental in the delivery of it. Right, We've
had doctor Robert malone On who's inventor of the mRNA
vaccine technology and he's the first one to say that
that wasn't for vaccines, it was for gene therapy, and
that's not the delivery mechanism. That's not what mRNA was
(29:38):
created for, but it's what it was used for. And
of course there's lots of off label uses for things
that doesn't mean anything. But he specifically went on to
say that this is bad and we should not be
doing it. So he'll be speaking at the December fifth,
Friday's meeting of the FDA the CDC. Excuse me, and
I'll bring an update on some clips on that as
(29:59):
well well. But very interesting stuff that's going on, and
there's a lot of news coming out of the FDA,
a lot of news about healthcare in general. One of
the things that I saw that I thought was really interesting,
and I talked about this recently, about this major breakthrough
of blood test that can find dementia risk before symptoms
(30:20):
even start. And I thought that's pretty cool because that's
one of those things that people really suffer from. What
I don't know is all right, we identify the risk,
now what just because we know it's happening doesn't mean
you could stop it from happening. But this is an
interesting one I think people might appreciate. There's a group
(30:42):
of people that are now hospitalized with pretty severe illness
after they took these, you know, off the street type
of injections of botox that they actually bought off of
social media. One of them is a New Yorker and
this is the piece that I was looking at the
New York Post. At least one Big Apple resid was
amongst ten people hospitalized with severe illness in the US
(31:04):
after injecting botox that they brought from unlicensed sources through
social media this year. Isn't that crazy. The victims ended
up in the hospital between May and August, and they
they were served dozens of doses of botox batchelinum toxin
(31:24):
and they had to be given the anti toxin after
they injected this dangerous knockoff into their body. It's pretty
scary stuff. Three of the victims required intubation and a ventilator.
According to a health advisory from Medical People that came
out on Monday from the City of New York and
the Department of Health. No deaths were reported in connection
(31:46):
with these illegal botox injections, but some of them were
pedaled on apps like TikTok and WhatsApp, isn't that something
crazy stuff? Many of the products sold vials of white
powder without labels, instructions, or even warnings. Some of the
(32:06):
symptomatic individuals reported seeing advertisements for vendors selling batchulinum toxin
products on social media, including TikTok, and none of the
people injecting these products reportedly met the state requirements for
purchasing or administering botox products under state law in New York,
at least, botox is only available from trained, licensed professionals
(32:30):
who administer the product, but the rule hasn't stopped a
lot of at home kits where you do it yourself
with unregulated ingredients being peddled over the past. It's been
going on for about a decade, but apparently it's growing
and now you've got it an increased risk of infection
as well as life threatening botchulism that can be the
(32:50):
result of this. Now in doing your own injections, some
people just order the Korean botox. And this is again
a quote that I'm reading from a TikTok user who
wrote in the comments section of one of these botox
tutorials and said, tired of paying ridiculous amount of money
(33:12):
when the neurotoxin itself is under one hundred dollars for
one hundred units per bottle.
Speaker 4 (33:19):
Well.
Speaker 3 (33:19):
Botulism is a bacteria produced illness caused by the toxin
that's attacking the body's nerves. These symptoms might include a headache,
muscle weakness, facial paralysis, and difficulties speaking. Some symptoms suffered
by victims, at least the ones from New York included
shortness of breath imagine that right. Let's see what else here,
(33:46):
extreme weakness in the arms and legs, amongst other things.
The city's Health department issued an advisory back in April
of twenty twenty four after these botox or botulism like
illnesses were reported in New Yorkers receiving botox shots from
unlicensed providers with unverified products. But the latest excuse me,
(34:08):
the latest surge is marking a turning point in which
the victims are injecting themselves wild stuff. I mean, again,
not that wild if you're you know, taking it at
face value. But I'm just thinking about Listen, the last
thing I'm gonna do for something that's going in my
face is order it online and do it myself. Come on,
(34:28):
you've got to be kidding me. You need it to
be done right, right, You got to get the right muscle,
the right whatever. I mean, they're supposed to know what
they're doing. I know for one thing for sure, I
don't know what I'm doing right. I was a barber,
not a botox person. Doesn't mean I can't become one,
but trust me, I have no idea what I'm doing there. So,
and I would say that's the truth for most of
(34:49):
us that are listening to this right now. So anyway,
that's the latest on that. And they actually sentenced the doctor,
the doctor that sold the fentinel or was it fantal
I think it was ketamine, excuse me, that sold the
(35:12):
ketamine to the actor from friends Chandler bing Matthew Perry
in the week's leading up to his fatal overdose. Doctor
Placentia was the first of five defendants to be sentenced
in connection with Perry's death. Back in October of twenty
twenty three. He pled guilty to four counts of distribution
(35:33):
of ketamine, and he was sentenced to thirty months two
and a half years in federal prison plus two years
of supervised release, and a five thousand dollars. Fine, Wow,
guy ends up dead. This guy pays five grand, he
does thirty months. Listen, I guess if that worked for you,
(35:55):
probably it wouldn't work for me. Wouldn't work for me.
I don't think that's a severe enough right Listen. I
saw a thing of a doctor getting five years in
federal jail for just defrauding health insurance. Guy was working
with Amtrak employees and they would bring him the insurance
(36:16):
card and he would just say, oh, I did this,
I did this, I did this, you know, building for
services he never rendered into the millions and millions of dollars.
Was getting rich on it, and he was splitting it,
you know, giving them a kickback. This guy got five
years in jail for robbing money that was likely insured.
This is somebody dead, fatal overdose. Why profit right? They
(36:44):
wanted to make money on this guy. That's it wild anyway.
The other defendants that are awaiting sentencing, listen to this.
Jazz Vene Senga, the ketamine queen, facing up to sixty
five years. Her sentencing is scheduled for the twenty fifth
(37:08):
of February twenty twenty six. Eric Fleming's facing up to
twenty five years, scheduled for January seventh, twenty twenty sixth
Kenneth Imoasa Perry's assistant, faces up to fifteen years. His
sentencing is scheduled for January fourteenth of twenty twenty six
and doctor Mark Chavis faces up to ten years. He's
(37:32):
scheduled to be sentenced on December seventeenth. So I guess
this first person was the one that rolled on everybody
else and got the deal. Lucky them, look lucky them, man.
And yeah, anyway, what else do we got here? It
(37:53):
was one more let me see if there was one
more health story that I wanted to share. I flagged
the couple and I said, man, these are really interesting stories.
Really a lot of interesting stuff going on in the
world of health.
Speaker 4 (38:03):
Ah. Here it is.
Speaker 3 (38:06):
Doctor Marty Mackery. He's the Commissioner of the FDA. He says,
there is a new oh zepic type of drug coming out,
and this is going to be what they call the
new era of weight loss drugs, and it's going to
be a blockbuster. Drugs like zep bound and Wagovi have
(38:30):
already taken the US by storm with the number of
Americans using them to slim down again. This is the
piece in the post, and Big Farmer is not done
cashing in on the weight loss boom yet. Drug I
was gonna say, drug dealers and drug makers are ready
to create a new wave of next level GLP one
treatments with a lot of promise. And you know some
of the promise of these drugs it's not just weight loss,
(38:52):
because it helps control part of the brain that deals
with impulse. Some are saying that this could stop overreading,
It could stop people that have other rug and addiction issues.
I think that's worth looking at, right. If you can
use this GLP one stuff to fix your gut, fix
your brain, and make sure that people are living a
healthier life and not getting high or not overreading or
(39:12):
doing a lot of things that they did impulsively before,
that's interesting, right, This might be a huge breakthrough. Anyway,
these sky high price tags have kept a lot of
people away from getting this stuff. This new generation of
medication is not just focusing on weight loss, according to
David Lao, who's an endochronologist and a professor at the
University of Calgary, but he told The Washington Post this week,
(39:34):
he says we're talking about changes beyond what you see
on the scale. But make no mistake, these pharmaceutical companies
are aiming to help people shed even more pounds with
these new iterations of these glp ones. And of course
the way that works. The golp one is a peptide
that mimics one or two hormones that are naturally produced
(39:55):
in your gut that tell your body you're full, and
it slows down your diget questionin it lowers your blood sugar,
and it helps you stay full for a longer period
of time, which is good for you. Eli Lilly is
the drug maker that makes several of these based on
what they call try zepetide to zepatite, excuse me, And
they want to take it even further with a new
medication that targets three hormones, earning the nickname triple G.
(40:21):
Now it's in the mid stage of clinical trials. Obese
adults are receiving these weekly injections right now. It's called
I was going to call it retarded tried, but that's
not what it says. It says re tart truetide. Yeah,
retart to try. I think I got it right. And
people are losing about twenty two percent of their current
(40:42):
body weight in about eleven months. That's compared to fourteen
percent of their body weight over fifteen months with semaglutide,
which is the active ingredient in ozepic, and we go
in phase three trials, which are starting in January of
twenty twenty six, if they are approved by the FBI,
the FDA. Excuse me, Happy hump day, everybody. This will
(41:03):
be approved at that point, should it happened. In the meantime,
Lily is saying they've got other contenders, including lurinotide, a
once weekly injection that targets amelin, a hormone that's released
in the pancreas during meals. Here's a quote from doctor
Lewis Arone. He's the director of Comprehensive Weight Control at
(41:25):
Cornell will and he says we've been studying ammelin for
weight loss for over twenty years. In certain ways, it
may be a better compound, adding that it appears to
cause less lean muscle loss and fewer stomach related side effects.
Good stuff, right, I mean again, it sounds promising if
it's all true. Now, in a phase two clinical trial,
(41:47):
lorinotide patients would lose about nine percent sliding scale nine
to twenty percent of their body weight, and they didn't
hit any plateaus, suggesting they might keep dropping pounds if
they stay on this drug longer. The weight loss that
they've seen in the study does have a very significant
clinical impact, and Leana K. Billings, she's the lead author
(42:11):
of the clinical triald, she was really happy about that, saying,
with this degree of weight loss in only forty eight weeks,
we see people having improvement or resolution in other conditions
like hypertension, hyperlipidemia, osteo arthritis, sleep apnea, and more weight
related conditions.
Speaker 4 (42:27):
And let me tell you that's a win.
Speaker 3 (42:28):
You know, America is the fattest country in the world
as far as I could see, and I think that's
a good thing, right.
Speaker 4 (42:34):
That we'd be a little less fat.
Speaker 3 (42:36):
Novo Nordisk is developing their own amylin targeting drug that
also includes semiglutide, giving it a little added punch to twofer.
The clinical trials for that are delivered to delivering around
twenty percent weight loss, roughly five percent more than semiglutide
just by itself. The drug is called Cagrissima, and it
(42:59):
was generally safe you know, a little bit of nausea,
vomiting diarrhea. I sound like one of those drug commercials, right,
You know, if you have nausea, vomiting diarrhea, constipation or
other things might cause blah blah blah blah blah blah
blah blah blah. Anyway, but these are all pretty simple things,
the gastro intestinal things that seem to be common with
most of these medicines. Anyway, I'll keep you posted if
this stuff gets approved by the FDA and they go
(43:21):
into it, and then of course there's a pill coming
out which is not going to be as effective, but
you can get about ten and a half percent of
your body weight lost in about sixteen months. Lots going
on GLP ones, all these new something tides. I'm wondering
if this is going to be one of those things
in a couple of years that we go. Man, these
(43:43):
magic things are looks like they're killing everybody right the
way we're looking at the COVID vaccine.
Speaker 4 (43:47):
I hope not.
Speaker 3 (43:48):
I mean looks like, you know, there's some research, not all,
but some research here around twenty years of work at
least with ammelin and some of the other stuff. So
curious to see how this stuff pans out. But anyway,
that's the health update for today. Yeah, straight ahead, we're
gonna get into a few more topics. Don't go anywhere,
I'm Rich Valdess.
Speaker 4 (44:05):
This is America.
