Speaker 1 (00:10):
Independent thoughts, independent life. This is Chad Benson.

Speaker 2 (00:15):
She's going to the border. Why you've ignored it? Why
would you go there? Why would you go to the
place that is easily your biggest week spot when it
comes to actual issues. Oh, there's plenty of other weak spots.
Why would you go there? I love this. This right

(00:38):
here sums it up perfectly. Kamala Harris going to the border.
Is that a little bit like Donald Trump going on an.

Speaker 3 (00:44):
Abortion clinic, steering in the direction of the skid right.
It's recognizing that there's a problem. You don't need to
have ressup polling data to know that this is one
of the issues where she's not stood and delivered on
the debate. Kind of the rap that she has that
Donald Trump blocked legislation that was supported by some Republicans

(01:06):
on immigration, that she's been a prosecutor, she's worked on
border issues. But there's no doubt that the central question,
none of the interviewers who have had access to her
I've really drowned down on it, is how do you
explain several years of failure as part of the biden
Ara's administration, which is not a partisan judgment or a

(01:26):
snide judgment. It's a judgment of almost every Democrat I
know who's had to deal with the implications in New
York City, where I lived, in Arizona, pretty much all
fifty states.

Speaker 2 (01:37):
That right there sums it up in a nutshell. It's
not a partisan issue anymore. That stopped being a part
ofsan issue a while ago. It's a reality issue, and
you won't give people access in any real way.

Speaker 4 (01:48):
Now.

Speaker 2 (01:49):
The other day we played a bit of it. Yesterday
I've played again. She set out with Stephanie Rule for
another hard hitting interview, and they talked about the.

Speaker 5 (01:57):
Border communities around the country that have legal immigration.

Speaker 6 (02:01):
Many have said we're at capacity, and.

Speaker 5 (02:03):
Many feel like the government has said to them, well, adapt,
sit down.

Speaker 6 (02:07):
Be quiet. This is how it is.

Speaker 5 (02:09):
What would a Harris administration do for those communities who
have taken in many, many legal immigrants but are at capacity.

Speaker 7 (02:17):
We do have a broken immigration system, hm, and it
needs to be fixed. And if we take a step back.
Months ago, some of the most conservative members of the
United States Congress came together with others proposed a border
security bill. Donald Trump got word of the bill, realized
it was going to fix a problem he wanted to
run on and told him to kill the bill, don't
put it up for a vote.

Speaker 2 (02:38):
Some of that may be true. I mean, you know,
we've talked about this at nauseum. Neither side wants to
give the other team a win, especially in an election year.
That being said, it's an election year. It doesn't explain
all of the time before the election, before it became
an issue that you knew you were going to struggle with.

(03:01):
I mean, that's the thing that makes me laugh. Well,
you know, we should have done it earlier. I guess
I don't know. Yeah, but everybody told you should have
done it earlier, but we didn't want to. Okay, So
now you want to and you want more tools, and
you're going to use that as an excuse. But it

(03:22):
doesn't explain the first three and a half years. None
of it does.

Speaker 3 (03:27):
So this is going to be a challenge for her.
The stagecraft of this will be difficult. Her other trips
the border in or Lester a whole interview did not
go well, probably one of the public low points of
her vice presidency.

Speaker 2 (03:39):
And is it a good look?

Speaker 3 (03:41):
Would she rather go away? Yes, she'd rather go away,
but it's not And like I said, she's steering in
the direction of the skid. She's going to try to
confront it and take it on rather than just wait
to see if the voters are under a verdict on it.

Speaker 8 (03:53):
Didverse to her.

Speaker 2 (03:54):
And let's remember, like the abortion thing, the Republicans struggle
trying to figure out how to answer any of the
questions on abortion. They don't know how to answer any
of the questions because for years it was a big deal.
They ran on it, they raised money on it. They
never thought it was going to go away at the
federal side the way it did, and now that it's
in front of them, they struggle with it. This is

(04:18):
hers and that Lester Holt interviewed, let's not rely, let's
not forget that. Well, I've never been to Europe. Remember
that when they talked about the border. You've never been
to the border. Well, I've never been to Europe. That
is not something you say, by the way, that is
not something you say. She has an issue that she's
going to look. I give her kudos for at least going.
But as much as they say, well, you know, it's

(04:40):
a photo op for Trump when he goes down there,
so a dog whistle go all the natchis want to
come down there called round people. Enough with your crap.
It's an issue that Americans are concerned with. More from
Mark Halprin.

Speaker 3 (04:52):
So, immigration is an issue that Donald Trump has owned,
and his critics would say he's demagogne, he's exploited it,
he's made it a wedge issue, he's used imprudent inflammatory rater.

Speaker 2 (05:04):
All true.

Speaker 3 (05:05):
But what's also true is your question just suggested, and
that old data suggests is some of the most out
there positions he's taken. Aren't that quite popular?

Speaker 8 (05:15):
Now?

Speaker 3 (05:15):
Does that I mean they're good public policy? Does that
mean he's right to support them or that he even
believes in them? Not necessarily to any of them, but
in a presidential election context, having the public on your
side is a good thing. And the public's view on
immigration now regarding deportation, regarding the border, not one hundred
percent of the public, but more than half and in

(05:37):
some cases eighty twenty seventy thirty. Therewith the sensibility of
Donald trumpet we need to take extreme measures to take
back control of the border one hundred percent.

Speaker 2 (05:47):
And let's not forget. I'm going to throw this out
there because one of the things that were talking about
before that is, and we've gone out of it a
couple of times in the last couple of weeks. Is
the numbers when it comes to deportation, right, because everybody
thinks several of the pollsters have all said, look, while
it's only twenty five percent of Democrats who are for
mass deportation, they believe it is much higher because they

(06:11):
believe that Democrats don't want to say that on the phone,
don't want to tell a polster, Yeah, I want to
get rid of all these people because I think there's
just too many of them and it's time for them
to go. What. Yeah, could I see that? Of course,
it's the same thing with Donald Trump. Right, how many
times has the polls shown Donald Trump to have very

(06:31):
little support or no support comparatively to where he ends
up Because nobody wants to answer the question. They don't
trust the pollsters. They think they're going to be judged.
So what do they do? They say something else, They
tell the people what they think they want to hear.
And I think when it comes to immigration, I think
it's the same thing I think her Achilles heel.

Speaker 3 (06:51):
I think her greatest political weakness is not just an
unwillingness to cross the left. She doesn't like to cross anybody.
She likes to evade answering, specifically on issues where she
knows there are political ment land minds. And immigration is
filled with landmines as a public policy issue as anything,
and Donald Trump bulls right ahead. It doesn't mind if

(07:13):
the land mines explode, because he's just going to keep
on walking.

Speaker 2 (07:16):
It's the beauty of him. It's the beauty of him. Again,
Stephanie ruled the other night with her talking about immigration,
and you can go back to all of the things
about Trump did this and Trump did that. It doesn't
explain the first three and a half years.

Speaker 7 (07:32):
My pledge is that when elected president, if the American
people will have me, I will bring that bill back
and I will sign it into law. And we need
a comprehensive plan that includes what we need to do
to fortify not only our border, but deal with the
fact that we also need to create pathways for people
to earn citizenship.

Speaker 2 (07:55):
Yeah. I was reading in the La Times now that
it's an electioneer that they are pushing through citizenship, Like
you could not believe. What do you think that makes
people feel? Like? When you read that and the only
time like they're celebrating it. It makes you think, Wow,
this feels like they are trying to get more voters,
and you wonder why there's all these conspiracy theories out there.

(08:18):
Oh my god. It feels that way, doesn't it. It
absolutely does. People are frustrated across the board when it
comes to modern politics. But the immigration question was never
ever dealt with, and here we are forty years later

(08:41):
after Reagan Tip O'Neil came to the amnesty this is it,
We're going to fix it. It's never been dealt with.
And a lot of that has to do with both
sides having opportunities but not wanting to do anything because
they recognize the political points inside of it are two greats.
The same thing when it comes to the likes of abortion,

(09:02):
because the abortion question that was never answered until the
people that really wanted to get rid of Roe v.
Wade asked the questions to the people who could answer
the question, which was the Supreme Court. Politicians they want

(09:23):
the question, they never want to answer it, not in
the way that you and I are thinking. We want
the solution. They're not interested in the solution. They're interested
in the politics of it. Well, Donald Trump's trying to
answer a question when it comes to immigration. Does he
do it gracefully at times?

Speaker 9 (09:43):
No?

Speaker 2 (09:45):
Is it a bit of a mess at times? Absolutely?
But are people starting to ask the question to maybe
the person that can answer it. Yeah, I think I
think that's going to happen. I think this is not
just an achilles heel for her. I've said this for well,

(10:07):
this show's been on for a decade nationally, and I've
said this for a decade. If we knew the real number,
right or left, I think we would go, Sweet Jesus,
we can't do this. We can't have this. It's the
we bury our head in the sand when it comes

(10:32):
to the number and we let them play with the
issue and then we fight about it. But I think
even if you're a hardcore Democrat who is like, we
need to do this, I think you would go this
is we can't have this. We cannot have this, because
I think the real number is closer to the mid
twenties than it is the eleven million. Since I was

(10:53):
in my twenties, they've been saying it's eleven million. Well
guess what, kids, I'm not in my twenties. Anymore. And
last time I check, people are still rolling on through
three two, three, five, three, eight, twenty four to twenty
three at Sheedminton Show, to your Twitter, your Instagram, all
of the other things Facebook as well, YouTube getting ready
to fire up, So get prepared for seeing my ugly

(11:16):
mug on the old tube of the U Man. So
much stuff to get to today, Mayor Adams? Is that political?
A lot of people think it might be. This should
have been a civil thing. Some people are saying, and
they're asking the question, why did Obama and Hillary, who
did far more when it came to campaign things, get
a pass in a civil settlement and the likes of Adams,

(11:40):
a Democrat and Trump get charged criminally. Oh that's interesting.
We talk about that bunch of other stuff to get
to as well. Bulwark Capital. Once you talking to my
buddy Zach Abrahm, Chiefvestment officer over it. But we're going

You're listening to the Chad Benson Show.

Speaker 2 (13:11):
It is Friday, but you knew that. And this is
the time of the week where we take a deep breath,
relax a little bit, and listen to the chaos, the craziness,
and the seriousness of this past week.

Speaker 12 (13:24):
I never fully believed the assertions that somehow there was
this overwhelming reluctance, you know, my running.

Speaker 13 (13:31):
Against telling her if Donald Trump was elected, black people
would be doomed.

Speaker 14 (13:35):
I asked New Yorkers to wait to hear our defense
before making any judgments.

Speaker 12 (13:41):
I'm not a.

Speaker 4 (13:43):
Mil I know how I say it is burning, got
through fugging my skin.

Speaker 8 (13:52):
I'm on Morning's Free, Scared.

Speaker 4 (14:02):
Good, It's fun, fru burking structure.

Speaker 7 (14:10):
And looking holistically and looking holistic to actually engage in
planning in a holistic manner.

Speaker 6 (14:16):
She doesn't answer the question, this is how I travel
as a COVID conscious person.

Speaker 15 (14:20):
First, I use covidxil nasal spray before going to the airport,
and I ask in the uber, of course, and I
always ask in the airport.

Speaker 2 (14:27):
It's fine Fi free, scar.

Speaker 4 (14:33):
Good, it's fun frosrug burking struct.

Speaker 16 (14:41):
A county and state that one of my airbnbs in
is offering me ten thousand dollars a month to house
illegal aliens.

Speaker 2 (14:47):
We're gonna hunkle now.

Speaker 17 (14:48):
I tell the family if you need to come in,
we all hunkle down together and we make.

Speaker 8 (14:52):
The best of it. This was the meanest sea lion
I've ever seen?

Speaker 11 (14:56):
Can I eat your soul?

Speaker 18 (14:57):
Part of it is that Americans, when you ask the
question and are you better off today than you were
four years ago, many Americans misremembered just how bad the
economy was four years ago.

Speaker 19 (15:07):
It's incredible that actually the biggest scandal of the year
is a policy scandal, the Project twenty twenty five.

Speaker 16 (15:14):
I'm a freak.

Speaker 2 (15:15):
Scandns Wow, drum.

Speaker 20 (15:28):
Kids are starting to play football at the age of
five years old, and you continue for all that time, right,
you're accumulating an unbelievably tremendous amount of harm.

Speaker 21 (15:36):
You'll understand why it's too late for me because I've
recently been diagnosed for Parkinson's.

Speaker 2 (15:40):
Three two, three, five, three eight twenty four to twenty
three at Chad Benson Show, to Twitter, your Instagram, all
the other things right here on the Chadminton Show.

Speaker 22 (15:49):
For a long time, she's been talking about her experience
at McDonald's.

Speaker 8 (15:54):
I worked at McDonald's over the French fries.

Speaker 4 (15:56):
It was so hot.

Speaker 9 (15:57):
I think I'm going to go to a McDonald's next
week and I'm going to work the French fry job
for about a half an hour.

Speaker 8 (16:02):
I want to see how it is a love movie.

Speaker 2 (16:07):
Ah, yes, you're finally Friday sounds what a week, right,
And another week is in front of us as we
get closer to the election. The Mayor Adams stuff is
also very interesting because you know it's going to see
the judge. He's probably not going to go to jail
versus forty five years. He's not getting forty five years
for this, and quite frankly, people are asking the I
think a very serious question, which is, dude, this is

(16:30):
more a civil thing than a criminal thing as far
as we can tell, unless there's more they're not showing
us prosecutors.

Speaker 23 (16:36):
Alleged Turkish official came to Adams in twenty twenty one,
telling him that it was his turn to help Turkey
was about to open a new consulate on Manhattan's East
Side and wanted Adams to rush the fire Department's safety inspection,
despite concerns the building was not safe to occupy. A
fire chief complied. The indictment, says fearing he and others
would lose their jobs if they crossed Adams.

Speaker 2 (16:58):
Well, fearing you're going to lose your job, isn't the
quid pro quo that people are looking for. I just this,
This is very interesting, and they raided his house again
yesterday even though they had the indictment. What they were
looking for? I don't know many people are asking that question. Again.
There may be far more to this than we realize, obviously,
but it is interesting. This whole thing with him is

(17:20):
interesting because he has spoken out a lot, especially about
this administration, and people are asking some questions I think
are fair to ask. Three two, three, five, three eight,
twenty four to twenty three at Chad Betson shows your Twitter.
It is the chet Betson shown Chad Benson, Joe.

Speaker 1 (17:59):
Independent, Independent Life. This is Chad Benson.

Speaker 2 (18:04):
Kids say the darnedest thing. So I'm sure you've seen
this if you've been on the interwebs over the last
twenty four to forty eight hours talking to kids about
the election.

Speaker 24 (18:16):
CNN researchers found that opinions of the candidates from these
ten and eleven year olds spanned a spectrum as wide
as America.

Speaker 1 (18:24):
What's the first word that pops into your head when
you hear the name Kamala Harris liar? What's the first
word that pops into your head when you hear Donald Trump?

Speaker 25 (18:32):
Pure evil?

Speaker 11 (18:33):
And do you think that people in.

Speaker 26 (18:35):
The United States are ready to have another four years
of Donald Trump if he's reelected?

Speaker 6 (18:39):
No?

Speaker 16 (18:39):
Why not?

Speaker 27 (18:40):
Because all he does is like complain and like yell.

Speaker 2 (18:45):
And it's funny because you know a lot of people
out there who listen to the show and friends of mine,
they'll send me the Kamala thing where it's the little
kid going liar, but they never send the pure evil. Well,
you know, kids get it from their parents. For me,
my thirteen year old, she'll ask me all the time

(19:06):
about politics. Jack will ask me a lot about politics. Charlie,
my six year old, doesn't care. Thank God for that.
When Jack was younger, I remember when Trump was running
the first time against Hillary and we brought Jack on
the show, and uh, I go, what do you think
of Hillary Clinton acause I don't know her. I go,

(19:26):
what do you think of Donald Trump? I don't know
who he is? And I said, that's exactly what you're
supposed to say. As a job, you're not supposed to
know any of those things, because you're supposed to be
a kid.

Speaker 27 (19:35):
Donald Trump, he's given his life.

Speaker 6 (19:37):
In his heart.

Speaker 24 (19:38):
One thing that the kids talked a lot about former
President Trump's legal issues.

Speaker 10 (19:43):
You really don't like Donald Trump.

Speaker 11 (19:45):
I mean, come on, he what do you like jail?

Speaker 24 (19:47):
I mean, in general, kids who said they'd support Donald
Trump did not see his legal problems as a disqualifier
should he be president against still yeah, Like.

Speaker 27 (19:57):
We can say, for example, JFK he cheated on his wife,
but like people still loved him. George Washington, Toms, Jefferson,
soave owners, they still had two terms. So I think
even though Trump has done bad stuff, he still deserves
to run for president.

Speaker 2 (20:13):
Look at that. By the way, that kid is super
well informed. Can we just say that breaking it all down?
You know, they all had their issues. Let's talk about so.
I mean, you know when you were that little iban,
I didn't care. The Internet plays a big role in this.
Let's not forget.

Speaker 24 (20:27):
Many children were also very aware of the first assassination
attempt on former President Trump.

Speaker 11 (20:32):
And which one do you think is tougher? Hmmm, Donald Trump.

Speaker 27 (20:36):
Because he did survive a gunshot. He's also pretty.

Speaker 24 (20:39):
Brave for Vice President Harris. Students from both schools had
a lot to say about her race and gender.

Speaker 2 (20:45):
Do you think it matters more to voters that she's
a woman or that she's a person of color.

Speaker 28 (20:49):
I don't really care about like what color she is.
I just care like the personality and like what she wants,
what she wants life to do.

Speaker 2 (21:00):
Wow, listen to that that kids like I don't care
about her color. I don't care that she's a woman.
I that the personality. What does she want to do?

Speaker 24 (21:09):
Eighty six percent of all students our researcher talked to
thought America was ready for a woman president of color.

Speaker 28 (21:15):
It'd be good for us to have a black woman
as president for the first time in history. But my
vote's kind of still on Trump.

Speaker 11 (21:23):
And do you think people in the US are ready
for a woman president?

Speaker 28 (21:27):
The fact that she's a woman and she's black, that
could help kids who are like her or are different
feel a lot more accepted.

Speaker 2 (21:38):
There you go. Can just the kids today get it
in a much different way. You know, we're on the
kids all the time, and like I said, I don't
talk politics. They'll ask me questions. I want them to
be informed of what's going on in the world. They
see something online that I think is ridiculous. You know,
the Queerest for Palestine thing is one of those things.

Speaker 29 (22:01):
You know.

Speaker 2 (22:01):
I'd explained to my eldest who is gay, and I
was like, look, you know you could be you could
not want people to be hurt. I you know, but
understand that those people over there would throw you from
a building and not understanding that. I mean, so issues

(22:22):
and stuff talking about is a great thing. These kids
that were super well informed.

Speaker 24 (22:26):
Overall the biggest finding the children in the study were polarized,
with what researchers called more extreme responses from the blue
state kids than the Red state kids.

Speaker 1 (22:36):
Donald Trump He's like Hitler.

Speaker 28 (22:39):
He only wanted to be president so that he can
control everybody.

Speaker 24 (22:44):
The study found that these Democrat leaning kids were about
nine times more likely to express negative emotions about Donald
Trump than Republican leaning kids were about Kamala Harris.

Speaker 2 (22:55):
Says a lot about the kids, Which ones are being raised? Right? Emotions?

Speaker 8 (23:00):
Kids?

Speaker 2 (23:01):
Too many emotions? He wants to be hitler. Enough with that.
I don't know how many times I have to tell
you enough with that? Okay.

Speaker 24 (23:10):
The study found that Republican leaning kids were more open
to visiting a Democrat supporting household. The Democrat leaning kids
were about five times more likely to say they would
not want to go.

Speaker 2 (23:21):
To a pro Trump house.

Speaker 3 (23:23):
Would your family let you go over to somebody's house
who's really supportive of Donald Trump?

Speaker 27 (23:27):
No, because like my mom and dad don't like Donald
Trump at all, not a single bit.

Speaker 17 (23:35):
Would your family be okay if you went over to
somebody's house who really liked Donald Trump?

Speaker 11 (23:40):
If I won't be real over here.

Speaker 27 (23:43):
If I just went over there, I imagine be a
good old argument or a fight, maybe like a food
fighter Trump.

Speaker 2 (23:51):
A food fight would be nice. That'd be a great
way to settle the differences. Now, all right, here's the deal.
From now on, war is only food food fights, actual
food fights. I listen to those kids, though, and you know,
we can sit here, we can talk about you know,
it's funny and it's cute. The one thing, though, that
struck me is the kids who are obviously probably raised

(24:14):
in the blue household, if you will, how much more
closed minded they seem, how much more extreme? And those
are the words of Anderson Cooper. And I've said this
my friends on the left, and I've got plenty of them,
they are far more closed minded than they want to believe.

(24:37):
And my friends on the right are far more open
to hanging out, talking and engaging with people who don't
believe the way they believe. And I'm telling you now,
go to a Trump rally, and if you have a chance,
even if you're a liberal, wear a Maga hat and
go to a Harris rally. The way you're gonna get

(25:01):
treated is way different. And I think everybody thinks, well,
you know, everybody who's on the right is a Nazi.
Everybody who's on the ride is this is that? And
you'd find out you're so wrong about that. We're wrong
about each other in a lot of ways because we
have this this thought of what the other side is like.

(25:24):
But you know how many studies have they done, Like
dating is a perfect example. Somebody on the left would
never date somebody who supported Donald Trump. Never, that would
be evil. Somebody on the rights, like I don't care.
But these kids kind of showed it right there. Even
the little kids are like, yeah, you know what, I'm

(25:45):
never you know, I would never go to somebody's house
who supported Donald Trump. And the kids on the right
are like, yeah, I go. I mean, no problem with that,
especially if they got good food. Three two, three, five,
three eight, twenty four, twenty three at Chad Benton Show.
Is your Twitter tweet at is Tax Step program? You know,
growing up, I was blessed. You know, my dad they
were really into politics. You know, my mom and my

(26:07):
grandmother they got into politics. My grandfather is very into politics.
But my friends down the street, my best friends in
the world, their family is so liberal, like liberal, like
you could not believe, like progressive, so out there liberal.
And I love them to this day. And yeah, when
I see them, you know, they ask me questions obviously
because they know what I do, but it and they'll

(26:29):
say stuff like, I don't know how you talk to
those people, And I'm like, first of all, those people
are Americans, and I'm one of those people. Secondly, they
have a differing of opinion. And one of the things
they used to tell me all the time too is
sometimes they yeah, the emotions get in the way of reality,

(26:49):
and I see that. That's what I tell my kids,
you know, take a deep breath in any situation, whether
it's politics or life, because once emotion get going, what
ends up happening. Things go sideways. You say things, you do, things,
you think things that you wouldn't normally do or say

(27:11):
or think, because the emotions are now driving the car.
And in politics, because we've now wrapped ourselves in these
identities right, right, left, blue, red, mega progressive, anytime that
somebody has a differing opinion, people take it as a
slight towards you personally, which is ridiculous. You got to

(27:34):
see the stuff I get sent every day. And again,
I engage everybody as much as I possibly can. I
haven't been as able to this week because we've been
traveling and doing a lot of different things, but I
try to get to and talk to as many people
as possible, and I get called nazi, fascist, evil, blah
blah blah blah, and I just sit there and go,

(27:55):
it is the way you feel, but it's all emotions.
And then you get talking to somebody to find out, well,
that's not really the way they feel, but it was
an emotional thing because they heard something they didn't like.
I'm not saying the right can't do it, because you know,
I mean, I get it plenty of blast from people
on the right because I don't agree one percent lockstep
with what Trump believes. And because of that, the tribe

(28:17):
will come after me. And I'm like, you know, let
it be, but they'll disagree big time. But that being said,
the names and the things they get called all come
from the most part the left three two, three, five,

Speaker 30 (30:00):
Hashtag me too, hashtag immigration reforms, hashtag help. I'm trapped
in a hashtag factory and I can't get out the
chat Bison Show.

Speaker 21 (30:09):
He turns, he's ready, he throws in its swung on
and hit the third He was left up with it
too many turns, he throws in the airs that won it.

Speaker 8 (30:19):
Mason Miller slams the door on.

Speaker 21 (30:21):
The Rangers as the curtain comes down on fifty seven
incredible years of ACE baseball at the Coliseum.

Speaker 2 (30:32):
Colosseum's a dump, by the way. I've been there on
several occasions to watch ACE games. It's an absolute dump.
I do not for a second think that the A's
were playing in a place that was worthy of minor
league baseball, let alone Major League baseball. But that being said,

(30:54):
fifty seven years and now they're gone. They're going to
be in Sacramento for a little bit, then they're going
to go off to Las Vegas. Night, though, was very emotional.
Mark cot Say, the manager of the A's.

Speaker 31 (31:03):
You know, it's difficult, as we talk about, I'm thankful
that I got to experience the emotion last night. Today
was an emotional day all around, from the time I
drove in, like we talked about, to.

Speaker 32 (31:20):
Right now and.

Speaker 31 (31:24):
Yeah, I mean I'm still kind of reeling right now.
So the focus during the game helped eliminate those emotions.

Speaker 8 (31:32):
And here they are again.

Speaker 2 (31:35):
It was a sellout. The reality, though, is nobody came
to the games ever. I mean, you could. You could
go online and see pictures of a Major League baseball
game and it looks like it's a practice, a warm
up hours before. There's nobody in the crowd, so you know,

(31:56):
this is this is what they need to do. And
they couldn't get a deal done, and everybody's gonna be
pissed at, you know, the mayor, they ownered this, that
and the other. The city had opportunities. They didn't get
a deal done where they wanted to build. They weren't
going to let them, and it was, you know, you
chase them away in some capacity and the owner's cheap.
Let's be honest. You want to spend any money, and
that's what you get. That's what you get. Speaking of

(32:18):
spending money and staying in baseball, who wants to buy
a baseball?

Speaker 33 (32:21):
In the moments after that hit, frantic fans dove across
their seats to score the souvenir ball, with Chris Bolanski
seemingly taking the prize, but now Max Matis is claiming
Bolanski forcibly ripped the ball out of his hand and
that it legally belongs to him. Lansky has already set
to auction off the ball a judge ruled yesterday the
auction can move ahead, but they can't finalize the sale

(32:42):
until after Matis gets the chance to make his case.

Speaker 2 (32:46):
How much will the ball go for? So this is
the fifty to fifty Otani home run ball. I don't
know it's going to start at five hundred thousand. You
can buy it though, it's like a buy now option
for four point five million, I think so if you'd
like to purchase that, feel free to contact the people
who are going to be handling the oxygen. I'm not

(33:06):
quite sure who that is. I don't think it's the
other piece, but I'm going to tell you what I
think is gonna happen. They're gonna end up having to
split whatever the proceeds are. And of course you're gonna
fight for the ball because that's life changing. You know,
you're in the crowd. You catch a ball that's gonna
give you five hundred thousand dollars to a million bucks,
has life changing money for almost every human being on

(33:29):
the planet. So you knew there would be lawsuits?

Speaker 10 (33:32):
You did?

Speaker 8 (33:33):
You did?

Speaker 3 (33:34):
You did?

Speaker 2 (33:35):
Speaking of sports, let's keep it here and I'm gonna
give you my NFL picks. I hope last week you
forgive me for my horrible picks. That was awful. Last week.

(33:56):
I was so awful I wanted to beat myself up
if I was a bookie. I'll be better this week.
I promise sixteen and sixteen in the first two weeks,
which is not good normally. I'm killing it by now. Cowboys,
I picked them last night. They did not impress. By
the way, Can I just say that that was not
an impressive game? Overrated everybody got excited after the first week.

(34:17):
They're not a very good team, at least not right now.
Bengals Panthers. Take the Bengals. I like to get back
on track. Saints Falcons. I'm gonna go with the Falcons.
Kirk Cousins looks good last week. Jaguars and Texans. Go
with the Texans. Jaguars are part of some sort of
meltdown right now, and it's just they did no confidence.

(34:38):
Saints Broncos, Jets. I'm gonna go with the Jets on
this one. Vikings Packers. I'm gonna go with the Packers
against my better judgment. Steelers, Colts go with the Steelers. Rams,
Bears go with the Rams. Eagles, Bucks go at the Eagles,
forty nine, Ers over the Patriots, Cardinals and Commanders. I'm

(34:58):
going with the Cards. Chiefs will beat the Chargers, Raiders
over the Browns, Bills Ravens. Game of the Week, go

(35:45):
got the hurricane slash tropical depressions slash rain dump which
is currently going on out there in the South East.
I am currently out in Nashville. We're doing a little
bit of work out here, and I will tell you
this right now now as I stare out of my window,
the rain and deluge is coming down quite nicely and

(36:06):
if it's supposed to be ugly for the next couple
of days. Boy, my kids are happy there.

Speaker 4 (36:11):
They are.

Speaker 2 (36:11):
They're excited about the rain. We've got a lot of
other stuff, including the darnedest things that kids say. Where
do you hear some of this stuff? Will play some
more of that as well. Three two, three, five, three eight,
twenty four, twenty three at Chad Benson Shows your Twitter.
It is the Chad Benson Show.

Speaker 1 (36:23):
This is the Chad Benson Show, Independent Thoughts, Independent Life.

Speaker 11 (36:53):
This is Chad Benson.

Speaker 2 (36:55):
Holleen moments ago, weather Box, Weather's mood Van Dillon woman.

Speaker 6 (37:01):
Trapped in.

Speaker 8 (37:03):
He's saving her. He called nine one one for her.

Speaker 2 (37:06):
Bob is going to join us coming up. That guy
is a he while as Fox and Friends earlier today.
So if I'm out here in Nashville. So we're on
the road doing a little bit of work and visiting
some folks, and the so uh Helen Helene whatever made

(37:26):
its way in crushed into parts of Florida and throughout
some of the Panhandle and and out throughout the southeast.
There's a deluge of rain, and George has been hit
pretty hard. And there's a weather dude and he's getting
ready to do a live shot, and he's like, I
got to go help this woman. She's in a car
and the water is, you know, up to the top

(37:47):
of where the window would basically be, and then some
and he goes over there and he carries her out.
I mean it's chest high, so good for good for
pop there. Well done, Bob, You've now made the story.
You're not supposed to get involved with people you're covering.
I'm just saying that's not what you're supposed to do. Meanwhile,

(38:08):
back in the drier parts of the country, we're still
getting ready for an amazing election. First we check in
with the Harris campaign. What is she up to?

Speaker 34 (38:18):
In her first trip to the US southern border in
more than three years, Vice President Harris today is expected
to call for tougher security measures and criticized former President
Donald Trump an effort to go on offense on a
key election issue, one that polls showed Trump has an advantage.

Speaker 2 (38:32):
Okay, so you're going to criticize him on what, well,
you killed the bill. The bill came three plus years
after you took over. Killed the bill. Whatever, be pissed,
be angry three years, Well, you're a meany what's going

(38:53):
to be in this bill.

Speaker 35 (38:54):
Harris is expected to outline a plan to crack down
on fenel smuggling and human trafficking, while pushing for more
border agents and resources. Those are all parts of the
bipartisan Border security bill. Former President Trump urged Republicans to
BLOC earlier this year, Trump mocking Horris's visit to the border.

Speaker 9 (39:11):
There's no buddy's saying, oh gee, she's done a fabulous
hYP She's done the worst job probably in the history
of any border.

Speaker 2 (39:19):
It's not been a good one. I'll tell you that.
I mean, it's this is not her jam. We talked
about it last hour. This is, as one person said,
this is like Trump going to an abortion clinic.

Speaker 17 (39:28):
This is not the.

Speaker 2 (39:30):
Comfort area for her, and it is a area that
she I mean, look, I give her credit for going there,
but it's years, years and years later than it should
have been. And the fact that you were the borders
are the the whatever that you wanted to call yourself.

(39:51):
Do you let the media call you? Then you changed
everything and now it's like I really have anything to
do with it. It's too late for that. It's too late.
This is not a winning issue from you. At all.
Then you've got Zelensky in town. What Yeah, Zelensky is
in town, and this will be very he is in
not just in town. I want to tell Aboudy he

(40:12):
is here. I mean, think about this. There's a war
going on and he's here. He's probably coming here to
get billions and trillions and gazillions of dollars.

Speaker 19 (40:20):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (40:20):
Probably. Remember we write the checks to ourselves. I want
to remind everybody that we write these checks to ourselves.

Speaker 25 (40:32):
The meeting comes just days after Donald Trump accused Vladimir
Zelensky of casting nasty expersions at him.

Speaker 9 (40:38):
And we continue to give billions of dollars to a
man who refuses to make a deal Zelensky.

Speaker 25 (40:44):
Zelensky told The New Yorker Trump only thinks he knows
how to end the war, and he called running mate J. D.
Vance too radical. Trump tells reporters today's meeting is at
Zelenski's request. Stephen port Noy, ABC News Washington.

Speaker 2 (40:57):
I think they'll sit down, they'll talk it out. Trump
does this right, Like that's and here's where Trump loves
the fact that people will come to him. You know,
we talk about the JD. Vans, We talk about all
of the Oh my god, Jed Evans, and he's all
the things he said. He loves the fact that people
will come to him, and once they do, he doesn't care.

(41:19):
See here's the thing. Trump doesn't take this stuff personally.
He understands its business. He gets what it's going through.
Do I think Trump can end the war in two seconds? No,
unless Zelensky's willing to. But see, here's the thing. Here's
where the upper hand comes. Dude, We're not going to
fund this thing forever. So get the best deal you

(41:41):
can get, and then we'll tell the pooter. You get
this area here, they're going to seed this land to you.
You get this portion of the Crimea and the Black Sea,
which is what you really wanted. You can leave with
your you know, your head held highs, if you did
something and you protected the motherland, et cetera, et cetera.

(42:04):
And then we'll tell them if you move from here
to here because you felt that somebody on the Ukraine
side threw a rock at somebody on the Russian side,
it doesn't matter. At that point in time. You've picked
a fight with all of us. So we'll see how
this goes. The other thing going on is Trump was

(42:24):
supposed to have a big to do I think at Wisconsin,
and that's to no.

Speaker 35 (42:29):
Trump facing a change of plans this weekend, sources say
the Secret Service told the campaign that agents do not
have the manpower to secure an outdoor rally in Wisconsin,
recommending an indoor event instead, manpower stretched thin by events
that in New York this week.

Speaker 2 (42:47):
So, because you've got everybody meeting at the UN playing
grab ass, patting each other on the back, talking about, Look,
we're making the world a better place. If there's any
way we could steal more money from all of these people,
that would be fantastic. You it's so useless. I forgot
who the comic was said the UN couldn't break up
a cookie fight at a girl's Scout convention, and I

(43:09):
agree wholeheartedly in that. Uh, you know, again, the election
is here. It's going to be interesting and the demonization
and you know, if you vote for Trump, you you
love Nazis, You're into fascism, et cetera, et cetera. Kamala
has her issues, right, we understand that she struggles where Katie.

Speaker 6 (43:28):
But it's men.

Speaker 13 (43:29):
I mean, I think the real struggle for the Harris
campaign is young men, older men, men of color, white men.

Speaker 2 (43:37):
It's not just men, but it's also black Americans. You know,
I've traveled this country and I will tell you this
right now. I drove through five states. I saw a
lot of Trump stuff. I saw no Biden or Kamala
stuff anywhere. It's because you're in a bunch of Nazi places.
Even in New Mexico, which lean's left, I didn't see
any of that. But this is several black voters on

(43:59):
a call, and I think it was like a hairsp
person trying to get the gauge of where they think
they're going to vote in what they think of Kamala.

Speaker 36 (44:07):
I think as long as people just don't really look
for context and what they're saying and what she's saying,
they'll just go along with it. They'll just go along.

Speaker 8 (44:16):
I was actually listening to a.

Speaker 36 (44:18):
Tim Wats rally today. It's just going for going for
those applause moments and know stuff that will appeal to
your emotions and but when in reality they're just intellectually
and emotionally manipulating yourself. Absolutely, no, she's not presidential, and
it will definitely come back to bite people.

Speaker 16 (44:34):
Does anybody disagree with that.

Speaker 37 (44:36):
I agree one thousand percent.

Speaker 16 (44:38):
Kuh do you agree?

Speaker 2 (44:39):
I mean, I've listened to her.

Speaker 37 (44:40):
I've listened to a bunch of interviews that she's done,
and well, I think she's done maybe like three outside
of the presidential debate, and you can tell like she
doesn't know what to say, and it's like she's reading
from Mantello prompt so you can see her eyes. But
that one was she wasn't reading from mantelllopros. That's how
you know she didn't know what to say. That's how
she has to get out of there, get out of

(45:02):
there on time. So yeah, it's a once she doesn't.
She says a whole bunch of nothing, man, So I
definitely agree with space to said.

Speaker 2 (45:09):
A whole bunch of nothing. Now these are well, those
are just men, Chad. They've already said that she struggles
with men of color in particular, as well as white
men and evil men and double white men and oh god,
not just men.

Speaker 17 (45:24):
Yeah, I agree as well. She never answers questions. I
actually just sit there and watch I observe her when
she actually is on, when someone actually interviews her, she
never answers questions. She give a bunch of word salad.
She doesn't. She's not straightforward. If she wants to be presidential,
she needs to be transparent about what her policies are.

(45:45):
She needs to be transparent about what her plans are
for the future. She never she just never answers questions.
And the happenstance that she does, people just fall forward
because they're emotional. They go off of you know, she
does the raw, raw thing, you know, try to try
to get you with her emotions. She tries to get
you with the fact that you know, she has a family.

(46:08):
I've heard her family story. I don't know how many friends.
That's what she starts off with. And she she just
doesn't answer the question. So to me, she is not presidential. Yes,
it will come back to bidas in the future.

Speaker 2 (46:23):
Let me let me ask you a question to follow
up on that.

Speaker 23 (46:27):
Is there anything that.

Speaker 16 (46:28):
You like about her?

Speaker 36 (46:30):
Not a single thing?

Speaker 2 (46:33):
Yeah, they all said no, And I go back to this.
Do you remember Dave Chappelle did his comedy special talking
about Jesse Smoulet, Jesse Smolette and how black Americans were
super quiet during the hate crime of Jesse Smollette, which
turned out to be BS but he said. Everybody wondered

(46:56):
why we didn't support him during that time, and he
said we did because we knew he was lying, and
we didn't say anything. Got a lot of people out
there who are black vating. I don't know if I
believe everything she says. I think she's full of crap.
I think she's playing us interesting. Is it true. Look,

(47:16):
she's going to get a lot of the black vote
Democrats tend to, but I think everybody's going to be
surprised at what is shaved off when it comes to
the Latino vote, the black vote, including black women, because
we know it is a men versus women kind of election,
because men are skewing further, well further is right, the
women are way left. Married women tend to be a

(47:37):
little bit more to the right. But I think it's
going to be a surprise for a lot of people
who are looking around, going, yeah, you know what, I
want that two dollars gas. I don't know if he
can deliver it again, But what we've got going on now,
I don't want any part of that. I don't three two, three, five,
three eight, twenty four to twenty three at Chadbenton Show,
is your Twitter tweet at his text program, just got
this text in. Does it feel like the shine has

(47:58):
finally worn off of Kamala? Keep thinking her poll numbers
should be higher, but they seem to have stagnated. Yeah,
I think the shine is off. There's no doubt about that.
The shine has come off of her big time. She
got a nice little bomp. Remember in July she was
the worst rated vice president of all time and the
Democrats in the media couldn't stand her. And then within

(48:21):
six weeks she was the greatest thing since sliced toast.
And that has worn off. Three two, three, five, three eight,
twenty four to twenty three at ched Minton chow Shoul Twitter, you,
Instagram all the things Raycon best here but around. Love
my Raycon wear them every single day. Now that we're traveling,
I don't have to be hooked up to that big
board that I normally do my show from. So what
do I have? I've got my Raycons in. They are

(48:43):
incredible fit, feel, sound comfort. You guys have no idea
how amazing these things are. Active noise cancelation, which is incredible, amazing,
fast charging which is awesome, eight hours talk time, thirty
two hours of battery life plus multi connectivity which is
good because it connect to my phone, connect to computer.
All of the things I need right there in one

(49:03):
package with the best fit and the best sound, and
I can switch from noise cancelation to to you know,
awareness mode just like that. It is so awesome. And
here's the other thing price that will not break the bank.
Start well under what the ones with the stems and
the wires and the names. Oh gee, those things are

(49:24):
so expensive and what do you get? Not the quality
yet with Raycon? How about a thirty day happiness guarantee,
fifteen percent off and free shipping. Go to buy raycon
dot com slash Chad. Now, let's buy raycon dot com
slash Chad. Buy Raycon dot com slash Chad Chad Benson shoe.

Speaker 11 (49:49):
You're listening to the Chad Benson shows.

Speaker 14 (49:51):
It's an unfortunate day and it's a painful day. But
inside of all of that, it's today where we will
finally revealed why for ten mons I have gone through this.

Speaker 2 (50:02):
He's probably pissed because he saw Bob Benendez got gold
bars and all that stuff, and now he got with
some hotels and free flights. Why is this happening to
Mayor Adams. Is it political? He believes it's political. Is
there a possibility that it is politics?

Speaker 23 (50:18):
Adams proclaiming his innocence and portraying himself as a victim,
saying he's being targeted because he spoke up about the
influx of migrants in New York City.

Speaker 14 (50:27):
We should ask the federal investigators and prosecutors who gave
you the director to take the actions that we are
witnessing right now.

Speaker 23 (50:34):
But US Attorney Damian Williams says politics had nothing to
do with it.

Speaker 2 (50:38):
You're not focused on the right or the left. We
are focused only on right and wrong.

Speaker 23 (50:45):
Adams now facing multiple calls to resign, but he says
he's going nowhere.

Speaker 2 (50:49):
Yeah, you think my day to day will not change.

Speaker 14 (50:52):
I will continue to do the job for eight point
three million New Yorkers that I was elected to do.

Speaker 2 (50:59):
What did he do you it's a big thing. Is
it really rise to this level of criminality? Because others
have done stuff like this in the past, but it
is odd that only a few are ever actually brought
to the point where it's criminal. This is Fanny Hacks.
She's a former federal prosecutor talking about this, This.

Speaker 38 (51:18):
Indictment's a little bit small ball, and the civil campaign
finance violations have been handled civilly rather than criminally in
many cases in the past. So it makes me curious
as to why the Department of Justice has brought this
indictment because if you look at the Hillary Clinton campaign
the Barack Obama campaigns, they had very serious, very high

(51:40):
dollar campaign finance violations that could have been prosecuted criminally
but were instead handled civilly. And Donald Trump with the
Stormy Daniels payments, and now Eric Adams with this campaign
finance scheme as they call it, is being handled criminally.
So I'm curious as to the different treat Now.

Speaker 2 (51:58):
Yeah, I think a lot of people are asking that question,
and he believes it's political. Is it political? I don't know.
They can sit there and say it's not, But I
don't know. If we buy everything they say all that aside.
I mean, you know, he got some what got some
free hotel upgrades? The big thing is the matching campaign.
So they're apparently straw donors who will give money to

(52:20):
certain people three two, three, five, three eight, twenty four
to twenty three at Chatpinson Show, That is your Twitter,
you Instagram right here on the chet Betson Show, and
then from there he was supposedly helping some Turkish business
owners when it came to like fire inspections, that'll all

(52:44):
come out. We'll see, But could you say it's political?
Of course you could. Is it? We're gonna find out.
We moved from one giant mess to another one. Florida,
stay indoors. If you're stuck somewhere, make sure you got
a boat. I saw guy last night floating around in
his living room in a kayak. I thought, well, you know,
that's very American.

Speaker 6 (53:05):
There are many things in that floodwater.

Speaker 39 (53:06):
There are down power lines, debris, there's things liurking in
the floodwaters that are very dangerous.

Speaker 6 (53:12):
So we want to ask people to stay inside.

Speaker 2 (53:14):
I've seen this movie. Have you not seen this movie.
There's a movie that came out a couple of years ago,
and like floodwaters come in and there's gators. This guy
gets I think it's called crawl space or something, and
he's stuck downstairs and there's a gator in there is
trying to get him in his basement. It was actually
pretty interesting. I enjoyed it because I enjoy those kind

(53:36):
of movies. It is going to be nasty for a
lot of people throughout the Southeast. Currently we're out here
in Nashville doing some work, and low and behold, we
are stuck right in the middle of it. It is
crazy the amount of rain that's going to be dumped
on us for the next couple of days. WHOA three two, three, five,
three eight, twenty four, twenty three act Chad Benson Show.

(53:57):
That's your Twitter, your Instagram, all of the other things.
A lot of stuff still to get her. Buddy Zach
Abram's going to join the show a little bit later
talk about a lot of stuff, including guess what's going
on in the market. But on top of that, what
do things like the Consumer Confidence Index mean to the
average person that isn't in the market all day long?
We'll talk about that as well. It is the Chad Benson, Joe.

Speaker 1 (54:19):
Chad Benson, Joe, Independent Thoughts, Independent Life.

Speaker 11 (54:43):

Speaker 39 (54:44):
Who If you hate Donald Trump more than you love
this country, and that's the problem we're having right now.
You people will go and vote for someone completely and
utterly incompetent of holding the position of commander in chief
of this country. I don't know how you guys are
still making excuses for Kamala Harris and the way that

(55:05):
she speaks and the way that she acts and all
the things that she's flip flopped on. But then you're
over here saying, oh, well, Trump's a liar. He says
he'll do this, but he lies when previously Trump did
every single thing he said he would do.

Speaker 2 (55:20):
That's the problem. He did all those evil things. No president,
by the way, so every gonna do everything they say
they're going to do because they are not a god
or a dictator and there are rules. So just throwing
that out there. But did he try to get some
stuff done?

Speaker 12 (55:37):
He did.

Speaker 2 (55:38):
I always say, you know, every president gets one or
two things. Then the midterms rolled around, and if they
have the House in the Senate, they lose one of them.
Usually that's kind of who we are and what we're about.
That's how we keep a little bit of the balance
going on here. But there is a lot of that.
There's a lot of people out there who hate him
so much. The same people out there aren't huge fans

(56:01):
of America. Let's be real, there's a lot of people
out there who believe America is evil. They're Americans, and
they believe that this country is inherently evil, and we're
the only country that's evil. There's never been any other
country that's evil.

Speaker 39 (56:15):
I am sick and tired of the lies that are
being pushed, the misinformation that's being thrown out there. And
then there are conservative creators like me and other people
who are trying to share truth, and their accounts are
getting banned and taken down. I've waited for Kamala Harris
to provide any type of substance to even be considered
a logical nominee for the Democratic Party. She doesn't get

(56:39):
fact checked in the media. Nobody says about her having
zero substance. She lies multiple times, and nobody brings it up. Ever,
I could go on and on about the issues there.
Your hate for Donald Trump runs deeper than your love
for this country.

Speaker 2 (56:53):
A lot of that, It's true. A lot of what
she said right there was spot on. I mean, you know,
I've always said this Trump bss.

Speaker 8 (57:04):
He lies.

Speaker 2 (57:04):
He lies a lot of times about stupid stuff. You know,
I've always gone back to the fish story. Right he
caught a blue gill, told everybody was a great white shark.
Did he catch a fish. Yes, was it what he
said it was? No's he full of hyperbole? Yes? But
he gets called on it. Why is that Well because
he lies all the time. Well, you say he lies

(57:28):
all the time, and I'm not saying he doesn't. Bs
and lie, And let's say the BS and lie are
two separate things. You're lying, it's one thing, you know
where the lion is, the bsing is. What you're saying
is true. But as I like to say, you put
a little mustard on it. It was probably forty foot python.
It was ten feet. It was a python, but it

(57:50):
wasn't forty feet. But chill out and out lie and
they don't call her on it. And there is something
to that. And the media is playing a game because
their hatred is so real and it is so damn real.
But at the same time, there is a love of Trump.

(58:12):
They hate him as a person, they love him for business.
They can't stand it who he is and what he's about.
But he's good for the dollars. Oh he is, Joe Rogan.

Speaker 40 (58:26):
But I don't think it turns around if Karl Ma
Harris gets into office. I think they clamp down more.
I think the same stuff that they were trying to
do with Twitter, they'll try to do with something else
with other things. They've already openly discussed it. You know,
she's hopingly discussed that the same rules have to apply
to Facebook, they have to apply to Twitter, and that
Elon Musk could lose his privileges, and like, there's so
many wild things that they're saying. Tim Wall said that

(58:49):
the First Amendment doesn't apply to misinformation or hate speech. Okay, well,
it certainly does, it does. You know, sometimes people say
things wrong, and the goal of the First Amendment is
you say something wrong and then this guy was an
experts says the right thing. Yeah, you know, and then
you correct them.

Speaker 2 (59:08):
I mean, that's my fear the free speech is. It's
to me, it's the most vital of all the things
we have, of all of our rights. And remember there
are rights to contract with ourself a love letter saying hey,
this and you will protect yourself from them if they

(59:28):
ever get itchy, if they ever get like they need
to do more, if they ever get to the point
where they believe that they should run your life. Twenty
four to seven. This is going to protect you, and
it starts with this right here. Number one, what if
that doesn't work. See number two. Tim Wolls never said
anything about free speech.

Speaker 8 (59:50):
I think we need to push back on this.

Speaker 2 (59:51):
There's no guaranteed of free speech on misinformation or or
hate speech, and especially around our democracy. Number one. Absolutely
hate speech, by the way, for those of you who
are not keeping score, is the only speech that's protected.
If you like what's being said, it doesn't need protection.

(01:00:13):
Hate speech is absolutely protected. That's it, and it should be.
It absolutely should be because the minute we start deciding
who gets to choose the winners and the losers in

(01:00:36):
the speech world, watch what happens. That's where the oppression happens.
I mean, I would love to think that Kamala is
not going to come down and if she was president
take away speech and do these things. I don't know.

(01:00:59):
I mean I think him more than her, would be
all about that. Which had they banned. That's what I
got earlier today. They banned a guy that's a journalist
that was on X. Yeah, that guy was banned or
his thing was suspended because he put the dossier. So

(01:01:20):
the Iranians hacked in two Trump's servers and got a
hold of essentially the OPO work. On not so much
Kamala Harris, but a lot of it on the vice
presidential candidates for him who he was looking at, and
they had dossier's and they sent him out to the media,

(01:01:42):
and the media said, now, we're not going to publish
any of these things. We can't because the minute you
start doing that, you're going to give people opportunities to
go and hack in and publish stuff. And the more
that that happens, the worse it's going to get. Going
to ignore it and just say no, there's a difference

(01:02:07):
right there, There's an absolute difference. I mean, that's like
hacking into the Patriots, getting their playbook and then putting
it online. No, you don't do that because then everybody's
gonna do it, and you don't want that. Some things
are personal, right Would you like your stuff out there? No,

(01:02:32):
you wouldn't. So that's not about free speech. That's just
about going ahead and doing something then take away speech.
He puts stuff out there that wasn't his. It's it's
frustrating as hell. We shouldn't be that. I mean, the
fact that we're even talking about speech, you know, because

(01:02:52):
I value speech is what I do for a living,
and I couldn't even imagine living in a place where
you know they kept telling you. I mean, I look
at what's going on in Britain and how many people
over the last several months have been arrested for liking
a post, sharing a post. Could you imagine what that
would be like? Here, that's a fear. And remember what

(01:03:15):
happens in the world of extremes. You're not always in power,
and when you lose that power, it comes back the
other way and then what ends up happening. That's why
we need the balance kids, we need the warriors, we
need the poets. Three two, three, five, three eight, twenty

Coming up, our buddy, zach Abram, Chevestment Officer Board Capitale
Joints a program talk about what else silly the economy.

Speaker 30 (01:04:39):
It is the Chad Benson Show, serving up talk radio medium,
rare and dripping with irony.

Speaker 11 (01:04:55):
It's Chad Benson.

Speaker 2 (01:04:56):
It's that time of the week we sit down and
talking a little economy here. Buddy Zack Gabrie, chief investment
officer Boar Capital, friend of the show, sponsored the show,
joins the program First and foremost. We touched last week
they had the fifty basis points. You kind of talked
about how you guys had factored that in. Let's talk
about the fact that I look at this and you know,
it's hard not to in the political thing we talked about.

(01:05:18):
But the reality is is the stock market does great,
but stock market, you know, Main Street and Wall Street
are two separate things. I don't think people understand that
because I think, well, the stock market's at record high,
so the world is great. You may have money in
your retirement, but you're not touching that today.

Speaker 10 (01:05:36):
That's a different world, right well, especially with the specter
of inflation hanging in the background.

Speaker 2 (01:05:43):
Right Yeah.

Speaker 10 (01:05:44):
One thing that I really want to make sure that
people understand is just how pernicious inflation is and how
and how unfair it is, meaning it always burdens the
least of these in terms of incomes way more, meaning
and it's and the people are like, why would it

(01:06:05):
do that? And I'm going to go, well, it's pretty
simple right. If you have one hundred million dollars a
wealth all right, and and in inflationary times, assets tend
to rise in price, especially when you look at the
way that governments and central banks.

Speaker 2 (01:06:21):
Respond to issues these days.

Speaker 10 (01:06:23):
Right, it's by the printing of money by targeting asset
price salvation. Okay, So if your cost of living goes
up twenty percent and your assets go up thirty or
forty percent, you're worth a hunt. You're worth a hundred
mil or even ten million dollars.

Speaker 2 (01:06:38):
Okay.

Speaker 10 (01:06:39):
Let's let's use an easier number, ten million dollars. Okay,
Your asset prices just went up and increased in value
by three or four million dollars, That twenty percent increase
inflation does not equate to anywhere close to an increase
in your cost of living of three to four million dollars, right, So,
net net, you're coming out way ahead. Okay. When you're
a working family and you don't have millions of dollars

(01:07:01):
set aside, and the cost of living goes up twenty
five percent, that doesn't mean that your deposits in your
four oh one k one up twenty five percent, right,
especially as it relates to the cost of your living right,
and so it's just totally skewed. So the only way
you protect yourself from inflation is owning inflationary assets things
that benefit from inflation. But the only way you can

(01:07:24):
own enough of them is if you own them in size.
And that's why you'll never hear rich people freaking out
about inflation and benefits them on a net net basis.
Who it crushes is the middle class and the lower class.
And so just you know, talking to our clients to
understand that, look, this is going to look to some
is an easy way out. Meaning you know, when you've

(01:07:45):
got a debt issue like we have, right, there's two
ways you deal with it. You either pay the debt
off and lower your spending levels, which, shocker all your listeners,
most governments don't choose to do that, right or or
what you do is you you inflate everything and raise
asset prices to the point where you know, yeah, deb's
way up here, but now so are asset prices, so

(01:08:07):
on a comparable level, it doesn't look that bad. But again,
that game only works if you want assets.

Speaker 2 (01:08:12):
Talking to Zack Abraham ch Investment Officer BOW or Capital CPI,
you know it's CPI report, this report, that report. The
reality is the consumer Confidence Index. They talked about that
this week. It's the lowest has been in quite a while.
And I tell everybody CPI is hard to read because
they take out everything that actually matters, Like, okay, as
long as you if you're buying shoes, life is good.

(01:08:33):
But you know, if you're buying food and fuel in
the front. But I always say look at the confidence
because if you and I and the individual out there
have confidence in what we're doing, we're spending money. That's
what fuels the economy. If we're terrified and we're holding back,
that's the thing that slows stuff down. And the confidence
index was not very.

Speaker 10 (01:08:52):
Confident, No, it wasn't. When you're running deficits this large,
consumers can pull back and play it cautious and it
does still doesn't matter. To put this deficit in perspective,
it's like saying you're thirsty and then trying to drink
out of a fire hose, meaning it's just so much money.
I mean, we're running at a two point one trillion
dollars not budget People get these conflated, not budget deficit, right,

(01:09:15):
So total government spending I think is probably going to
approach about six trillion this year, six and a half,
six six trillion. So when we're seeing two trillion, you know,
I remember as a kid when the debt hit one
trillion dollars. We're tacking on two trillion a year now. Yeah,
So it's just so the consumer confidence thing we need
to look at at that point though, when you're spending

(01:09:37):
that much money. And it's one of the things that
I didn't handicap enough coming into this chat is I
was looking at the setup. I was looking at the debt.
I was looking at the situation the banks were in
and when they started hiking rates. And I don't know
if you remember this, but I remember you and I
talking about it. When they started hiking rates, we thought
there'd be serious problems in commercial real estate. We thought
those would metastasize into the banks, and we thought there

(01:10:01):
would be problems. Right, well, all of those things happened.
What we didn't factor in is the deficit staying where
it was. I kept thinking that you would normalize it, right,
they haven't. And so with that in mind, and that's
what people need to and here's an easy way to
conceptualize it in eighth nine. Through this Great Financial Crisis,

(01:10:24):
GDP from top to bottom, gross domestic product dropped by
three point eight percent percentage size of the economy. Today,
you're running deficits nearly twice that amount. Okay, so you
could see pullbacks in consumer consumption, consumer spending, and I
kind of feel like it's throwing rocks at a tank
in this environment. You know, like, yeah, it's not good

(01:10:46):
for the economy, But is it going to create a recession?
Not when they're spraying the economy down with this much cash.
Not at least in our opinion, especially when you start
throwing rate cuts on top of it. So you know, I,
with the way we measure GDP in this country, if
they keep spending that money, you'll continue to see quote

(01:11:07):
unquote economic growth. Is it real economic growth?

Speaker 32 (01:11:10):
No?

Speaker 2 (01:11:10):
No, it's steroids. It's it's not real.

Speaker 6 (01:11:13):
No.

Speaker 10 (01:11:13):
And we're eating seed corn, right, Well, we're just we're
just eating what we should be planning. And we will pay.
We will rue the day, right, we will, we will.
We will collect a debt on this, and inflation is
the first part of that debt. Right, It's like the
interest expense.

it comes to politics. We were talking about this earlier.

Speaker 13 (01:13:35):
The largest impact is being seen right now in the
Southeast hundreds of flights canceled over the past few days
in Charlotte, Atlanta, and Tampa as Helene moves through, and
with multiple airports closed in Florida ahead of the storm's arrival,
including Tampa International and Saint Pete Clearwater, we could see
ripple effects for flyers heading into the weekend.

Speaker 2 (01:13:55):
Yeah, I'm going to tell you I'm in the midst
of it right now. So we're out here in Nashville
and in ourselves having a little time doing some work
out here, travel around, seeing some stations that I work with.
And as I sit here and gaze out to bump
the window, there's a deluge of rain pouring down. Helene
is evil and bad. It's not a good lady. It's

(01:14:16):
not good. No, not good at all. And like last
hour we were talking about it, that weatherman and Georgia
and Atlanta, the Fox Weatherman dropping his camera and doing
his live shoot running out into the middle of a
looks like an intersection where Carr was just being crushed

(01:14:36):
by water and saving a woman. This is ugly. And
I've talked to a couple of people who are in
Florida and in Georgia. Anthony's out there in Georgia, and
it's just this, it's this massive now wall of water,
is what it is. And it's just dropping rain and
rain and rain, so ugly to say the least. And

(01:15:01):
of course you keep it right here on all the
stations because we're gonna be covering it throughout the day
and probably throughout the weekend, and that whole thing with it.
And like we've talked about with air travel, all it
takes is for one airport to have delays, which will
cause other flyers to miss their connecting flights and whatnot.

(01:15:23):
It just it just takes one of those little pieces
of the domino to go and then everything goes wonky,
as they like to say. Three two, three, five, three
eight twenty four to twenty three at Chadbinson Show show
twe tweet at his text to program, it's got to text.
Somebody said, I'm waiting for the October surprise. I said,

(01:15:44):
giant meteor. I think they responded with the kraken. Is
it possible? I don't know what. Here's the thing with Trump?
What's the October surprise with him? I mean that you haven't.
I mean everything they throw at him really doesn't stick,
and it doesn't seem to bother anybody. So I don't
know what the October surprise would be with Donald Trump.

(01:16:05):
With her, there could be several things because what do
we know, what don't we know? But with him, what
hasn't come out? Can you think of anything? I mean,
you know, I mean, I'm not saying there's no way,
but can you think of anything that they wouldn't have

(01:16:27):
already tried to release at this point in time? And
here's the other thing with the October surprise that people
don't think about like they used to, is we don't
vote just on that first Tuesday in November anymore. So
you could have already voted, then you get the October surprise,
but it's too late. Oh. I just couldn't, for the

(01:16:52):
life of me think of what would come out that
wouldn't have already come out about Trump. I'm trying to.
I'm wrapping my head, trying to wrap my head around.
I just couldn't. I you know, is there the is Well,

(01:17:12):
they've got this this tape, and this tape is the tape.
That's the tape, and like, why didn't they release it
like four years ago? Well, but no, but it's new tape. Well,
they didn't release it two months. I mean, just again,
I question what could come out, because there's never been
anybody more investigated, more hammered on by the press, more

(01:17:32):
chased down, more lies told about him, and it turned
out to not be true. More So, I just wouldn't
know what was out there. I wouldn't speaking of Trump
and the press. This is NPR and Maggie Haberman of
the New York Times.

Speaker 41 (01:17:46):
So let's talk about some of the criticisms of the media.
I mean, I will just tell you don't have to
answer for all media, or even the many reporters and
editors at the New York Times who are working on
this campaign. But I'm interested in how you respond when
people say that the Times and the media have given
Trump credibility by treating things he says as if they

(01:18:07):
should be taking seriously when they don't deserve that treatment,
or when he gives a garbled answer about you know, say,
childcare and it's rewritten to sound clear and credible. In general,
I mean, is there a point here?

Speaker 2 (01:18:20):
Is there a point here? Well, you're again, this is
NPR publicly funded in a lot of ways, and then
begging in other ways talking about Trump Why do we
even talk about him? Why do we even paying any
attention to him? Why do we even do any of
the thing? Maggie Haberman, you love him, don't you? And
the media treats him, you know, too nice, too kind,

(01:18:42):
too swell.

Speaker 29 (01:18:44):
I think that the media does a very good job
covering Trump. There are always going to be specific stories
that could have been better, should have been better, that
are written on deadline, and people are not beings as
precise as they should be. I think there is an industry,
bluntly dave, that is dedicated toward attacking the media, especially

(01:19:04):
especially as relates to covering Donald Trump and all coverage
of Trump. And I think that Trump is a really
difficult figure to cover because he challenges news media process
every day, has for years.

Speaker 2 (01:19:22):
The systems are.

Speaker 29 (01:19:23):
Just fundamentally they were not built to deal with somebody
who says things that are not true as often as
he does, or speaks as incoherently as he often does.

Speaker 2 (01:19:38):
Says the people who ignored Biden forever in a day
when everybody's like, I see that guy over there, he
just is talking to a wall, and then you know,
asked if a lady was here, he would like to celebrate,
not realizing she's been dead for a while. I mean,
you know, so let's just settle down with that. The
interesting thing, I mean when you listen to all of
that stuff, and again it's the it's the NBR. It's

(01:20:00):
that you know, intelligencia. You know, look at us, we're
NBIS like looking for the BBC and whatnot. I sit
there and I think to myself, you hammer him twenty
four to seven. That's all you do. You guys have
turned your disdain for Trump into an industry. You know,

(01:20:22):
I talk about this all the time. If Trump goes away,
I hate fore Trumper's out there, you can be upset,
you know, because he's gonna That's just it, like the
the after side of it. But if Trump wasn't here,
what would you talk about? I got all kinds of
things to talk about. I love talking about everything. You

(01:20:42):
guys know, you listen to the show. It's not just politics.
We talk pop culture, we talk all kinds of stuff.
There's plenty of stuff even in the political world. But
Trump evokes an emotion which gets people to react, and
out of that reaction what comes it clicks, views, likes, shares,

(01:21:05):
and yes, Trump is not like anything that they've ever
seen in the world of politics, because he's not a politician.
He's a guy that doesn't give a rats ass. He's
a guy that will say anything that comes to his mind,
which at times drives me crazy and infuriates a lot
of you out there. That being said, that's one of
the reasons that he's got this allure. He's not the

(01:21:31):
status quo, which again is the appeal.

Speaker 29 (01:21:35):
I think the media has actually done a very good
job showing people who he is, what he says, what
he does. I think most of the information that the
public has about Trump is because of reporting by the media,
And I guess I don't really understand how this industry
that literally exists to attack the press broadly, and the

(01:21:59):
media is not a monolith, it's not a league, but
this industry that exists to do that, I don't see
how they think they are a solution by undermining faith
in what we do. That's been very confusing to me.

Speaker 2 (01:22:16):
You're very confusing. God it you get on NBR and
it's like, tell me, Mackie a little bit about your process,
how you work the things that you do when writing
about the likes of Donald J. Trump.

Speaker 41 (01:22:31):
Yeah, well, I mean, part of the attacks are clearly
are a partisan. I mean Republicans and Trump, you know
supporters are going to attack.

Speaker 25 (01:22:39):
I'm not talking about that.

Speaker 2 (01:22:40):
Yeah, who is the industry you're talking about.

Speaker 25 (01:22:41):
I'm talking about criticism on the left.

Speaker 29 (01:22:43):
I'm talking about a lot of.

Speaker 35 (01:22:47):
That.

Speaker 29 (01:22:47):
Trump has used the language of despots to undermine the
press is very well established and it's very dangerous. And
I've talked about that. The publisher of the New York
Times has been in incredibly clear about that. He published
an op ed recently in the Washington Post actually talking
about that. So I don't think that anybody's at the

(01:23:10):
New York Times is trying to sanitize Trump's language.

Speaker 2 (01:23:15):
No, but that being said, you guys lied for years
about Russia, Russia, Russia. Think about that for a second.
Washington Post first day he's in office, on inauguration day,
front page, the march to impeachment begins, and the whole
time you bitch about well, freedom of speech and freedom

(01:23:36):
of journalism, and Trump says a lot of stuff. It's
all hyperbole. It's games. He gets his people riled up,
et cetera, et cetera, and go on and on. It
is insane because for all the things you say that
he's going to do, he had a chance and he
didn't do that. He wasn't taking it out for a
test drive and going well, if I win again, then

(01:23:56):
I'll really do it. Sorry, he didn't work that way,
and it doesn't do.

Speaker 29 (01:23:59):
I think that there are occasional pieces at my paper,
at other papers that probably should have been done differently.
That's that's absolutely true. And that's what happens with this
industry on the left that attacks the press, is that
it gets described as a grand conspiracy to try to
help Trump somehow, as opposed to people doing their job
on daily deadlines and not always hitting the mark because
we are humans and we are doing our best under

(01:24:21):
a very challenging set of circumstances. But I actually think
the media has done a very good job of covering Trump.
I think that what is frustrating to those people making
those claims is that there is not the result they
want to see, which is Trump melts or Trump no
longer has, you know, popularity.

Speaker 2 (01:24:39):
What makes me laugh inside about that she's not very funny,
is she First of all, she gets mad at the left.
But it's not your job to destroy the president or
the leader of the Republican Party and have him melt
down and get that result. That's not your job. Your
job is to report the news. If you're a journalist,
that's your job. I'm a talking head and they've all

(01:25:00):
I'm talking hits. But isn't that what your job was?
To who? When, how and why? And everybody else will
decide what their opinion is of it. Three two, three, five, three, eight,

(01:29:11):
you know, it's one of those days. I mean, we
had so much stuff to talk about still and try
to squeeze it in a little sound Salad coming up
as well. We got your finally Friday sounds as well. Helene.
Though that's dangerous. You know. I'm looking at it and
I'm thinking to myself, my god, this is It's the water.

(01:29:31):
And I try to tell people that it is the
water that you need to worry about. The wind's bad,
those things, absolutely, but the water and the flooding is
the thing you have to pay attention to.

Speaker 43 (01:29:43):
In Pasco County, Sheriff's deputies and boats have carried out
at least two hundred high water rescues south of there.
Tampa Mayor Jane Caster says.

Speaker 25 (01:29:51):
Throughout our downtown area.

Speaker 22 (01:29:53):
I was just driving down there and there's a great
deal of damage from the flooding.

Speaker 43 (01:29:58):
Helene is no longer a hurricane. Across the southeast, more
than two million homes and businesses have lost electricity and.

Speaker 2 (01:30:05):
Now that it is not a hurricane, what it is
is a deluge of rain which causes flooding, and that's
where the damage really comes from and the potential for death.
I think we've got two people who died in Georgia
and one Florida already, So be careful if you're out
there listening. Three two, three, five, three eight, twenty four,
twenty three at Chad Benson Show. That is your Twitter,

We've got a bunch of stuff out there that is
both hilarious and interesting. Give you some NFL picks a
little bit later and your finally Friday sounds as well.
Right here on the Chad Benson Show.

Speaker 1 (01:31:00):
Chad Benson, Joe, Independent Thoughts, Independent Light.

Speaker 11 (01:31:24):

Speaker 2 (01:31:25):
It's that time of the week we talk about stories
that are happening and something happened that we didn't have
a chance to get into. One thing that is happening
is what's going on outside in the southeast massive storm
was the hurricane now become a storm And let's just
say it's crazy out there.

Speaker 6 (01:31:44):
That car just all it out, looks like it's not moving.

Speaker 40 (01:31:46):
Now.

Speaker 6 (01:31:47):
Hopefully they will get out.

Speaker 5 (01:31:48):
Of their car and get to some safe area as
soon as possible.

Speaker 6 (01:31:52):
And we've actually been seeing some people swimming through the area.

Speaker 21 (01:31:57):
Alligators swimming through the area.

Speaker 7 (01:31:59):
I thought, I was saying to my producer in my
ear here and they've seen some alligators passing by.

Speaker 2 (01:32:04):
So this is another reason why you don't want to
get into this mess. I mean, my friend likes to
call it in Jurassic Florida. There's a reason for that,
because that stuff happens. Water comes up, it's everywhere, and
then there're gators. And if you don't believe me, well
then you're fooling yourself. But there was a movie a
few years ago about it, and it was called Crawl.

Speaker 43 (01:32:26):
This is a Category five hurricane morning.

Speaker 21 (01:32:29):
You need to grab your loved ones and get to safety.

Speaker 11 (01:32:32):
Down are you coming back for you?

Speaker 2 (01:32:42):
You got this?

Speaker 29 (01:32:44):
Wow?

Speaker 2 (01:32:51):
Crawl in our home theater of July twelve. That was awesome.
I went to watch it. Barry Pepper started in the movie. Basically,
he's in Florida's society. He's going to fix up the
house that he's staying at. Doesn't think the storm's gonna
be that big. His daughter comes to save him. Lots
of people are eaten by yes, gators, and gaters do
cruise around because that's what they do. They go where

(01:33:14):
the water is. You should understand that.

Speaker 26 (01:33:16):
Speaking of animals today, in Cobble, a female cat has
more freedoms than a woman. A cat may go sit
on her front stoop and feel the sun on her face.
She may chase a squirrel into the park. A squirrel
has more rights than a girl. Enough kind of sun today,
because the public parks have been closed to women and

(01:33:37):
girls by the Taliban. A bird may sing in Cobble,
but a girl may not, and a woman may not
in public.

Speaker 11 (01:33:43):
This is extraordinary.

Speaker 26 (01:33:44):
This is a suppression of the natural law.

Speaker 2 (01:33:47):
Yeah, this is what happens when people start to wake
up and go, hey, wait a minute. Their culture is
a little different than ours. Most people out there who
are all about Palestine and the oppression and how evil
the Jews are and all of this stuff, and from
the river to the sea, those people right that they're

(01:34:08):
supporting the useful idiots there' supporting those Humas folk. Guess what,
They're not too far away from the likes of the Taliban.
Just want to point that out, just throwing that out there.
A lot of people don't understand that a lot of
people hate America. They're mercadors, No Chad, nobody hates America.

Speaker 8 (01:34:25):
I'm not here.

Speaker 10 (01:34:25):
We go.

Speaker 44 (01:34:26):
Had a concert over the weekend in his hometown of Seattle,
Maclamore said, oh yeah, America, and the video got a lot.

Speaker 2 (01:34:31):
Of attention online. It happened that the Palestine Will Look
Forever charity music.

Speaker 44 (01:34:35):
Event, and Maclamore has taken to Instagram to explain why
he said what he said, writing that over the past year,
he's seen dismembered kids in Gaza, murdered by US manufactured bombs,
watched as the US government is funded and supported Israel's
ongoing violence against the people of Palestine, and he's angry.
He doesn't hate America, but he's angry at America and
feels his country could and should do better.

Speaker 8 (01:34:54):
Yeah, America.

Speaker 2 (01:34:55):
By the way, I'm going to say this right. If
you guys have listened to the show for a long time,
God bless each and every one of you. Thank you
for that. We used to do a bit with called
Douchebag of the Week, and every week it was Maclamore
for two years. You can be mad at America. I
got no problems like you should be mad at America

(01:35:16):
at times. There's no there's zero problems with that. Do
I think he hates America? I think they Here's the thing.
Do I think the he hates the country. I think
he hates a lot of what the country is. I
do believe that. I think he hates a lot of
what they like. So many of these people they hate

(01:35:37):
how America became America. They can't stand how America became America.
But they love everything that is America. And like anything,
you got to take the warts with it, right, you do.
And he got taken off of a concert that he
was supposed to play at. He's since come out and apologized,

(01:35:57):
and he was, you know, emotional, not a shocker and
a douchebag, but you know, the hatred from him of
his douchebagginess went away for a while because he was
such an avid golfer. That being said, the beauty of America,
You're allowed to say you hate it. It's the beauty
of this country. The absolute beauty of this country is

(01:36:19):
you are allowed to say you hate it, and I
will protect his rights to say so. Doesn't mean I
agree with him, doesn't And he's another one of those
people that are useful idiots for those who are not
keeping score. Palestine, in particular Hamas and Israel little tension,
to say the least, and we continue to look at

(01:36:40):
Israel and get mad at them for defending themselves.

Speaker 45 (01:36:43):
What Kamala Harris said this week about what we should
do when the war is over, no reoccupation of Gaza,
no changing of the territorial lines of Gaza, and an
ability to have security in the region for all concern
in a way that we create stability. I feel like,
if that's what you have to say, don't say anything.

Speaker 2 (01:37:01):
Just shut up.

Speaker 45 (01:37:02):
I mean, everybody who talks.

Speaker 37 (01:37:03):
About Israel these days is just so full of shit.

Speaker 45 (01:37:06):
I mean, I don't want children to die, duh, who does?
None of us want children to die, But it's not
addressing what the problem is The problem is that one
side wants a two state solution. One side never did
and still doesn't.

Speaker 2 (01:37:19):
One hundred percent correct. Go back to what Bill Clinton said,
and he talked about how close they were getting everything
that Yasir Arafat and everybody wanted, and in the twelfth
hour they decided no because it was more about keeping
the anger up because that's the thing that fuels their money.

Speaker 45 (01:37:37):
One side uses terrorism to get their goals. One side
retaliates against terrorism. One side is accused of genocide but
doesn't do it. The other side actually would love to
do it. People keep saying Israel has the right to
defend itself, and then whenever Israel does, they object to.

Speaker 2 (01:37:52):
It because it's suppressor or suppressed. If Israel, and I
say this, and i'll to this day, I will back
it up one hundred percent to anybody's face. If the
Israelis look like the Palestinians and they weren't whities, nobody
be having a conversation about this suppressor or suppressed. And

(01:38:13):
it's people who just who are these activists who are
idiots out there just being angry because they feel like
we've got to stand up for the little guy. Because
they are always right. They're not. And by the way,
the little guy is the one taking the punishment because
the big guy, and I'm not talking about Israel Hamas

(01:38:34):
is the one raking in the dollars and hiding well.

Speaker 32 (01:38:37):
Yeah, I mean, this is one of the astonishing things
about the response to the pager bombings, astonishingly well targeted
attack in history, like literally going off in the hands
of anyone any his bulla member who has one of
these pagers. And you have people like Congresswoman aoc lambasting Israel,
the head of the UN lambasting Israel. So they say
Israel's entitled to self defense, but there's no conceivable self

(01:39:00):
defense that they're actually prepared to defend.

Speaker 2 (01:39:03):
For the israelis no zero zilch nada. They want them
to defend themselves, but only if they're being attacked, and
in the midst of the attack, and only so far
as to push the attack away. They don't want them
to actually get ahead of it, protect themselves and do

(01:39:26):
the things that should have been done for the Palestinians
a long time ago, which was remove Hamas and eventually
get rid of Hesbelah to try to bring some stability,
not only to their country, but to the entire region.
And finally, on this sound salad, we have a death
to announce today.

Speaker 6 (01:43:18):
Can I eat your soul?

Speaker 18 (01:43:19):
Part of it is that Americans, when you ask the
question are you better off today than you were four
years ago? Many Americans misremembered just how bad the economy
was four years ago.

Speaker 19 (01:43:28):
It's incredible that actually the biggest scandal of the year
is a policy scandal, the Project twenty twenty five.

Speaker 2 (01:43:39):
Wow drama.

Forget.

Speaker 20 (01:43:50):

It was so hot.

Speaker 8 (01:44:17):
I think I'm going to.

Speaker 9 (01:44:18):
Go to a McDonald's next week and I'm going to
work the French fry job for about a half an hour.

Speaker 8 (01:44:23):
I want to see how it is.

Speaker 2 (01:44:27):
A love what a week man, And we're just I mean,
we're days away from the election. And as I continue
to tell everybody, get ready for election season. That's going on,
it's been going on for a while, but get ready
for what comes after, because I don't know what it
looks like. I think, barring a blowout, this thing may

(01:44:47):
drag on with lawsuits and everything else. So be prepared
for that. Speaking of said candidates, one of them is
going to a place that quite frankly, she's never really
paid it attention to, and that is telling.

Speaker 35 (01:45:02):
Harris is expected to outline a plan to crack down
on fennal smuggling and human trafficking, while pushing for more
border agents and resources. Those are all parts of the
bipartisan Border Security bill. Former President Trump urged Republicans to
bloc earlier this year. Trump mocking Harris's visit to the border.

Speaker 9 (01:45:19):
There's no buddy's saying, oh gee, she's done a fabulous hip.
She's done the worst shop probably in the history of
any border.

Speaker 2 (01:45:27):
I saw somebody said her going to the border is
like Trump going to an abortion clinic. I thought, well,
that's that's a strong statement. Speaking of Trump, what's going
on with him.

Speaker 35 (01:45:40):
Trump facing a change of plans this weekend. Sources say
the Secret Service told the campaign that agents do not
have the manpower to secure an outdoor rally in Wisconsin,
recommending an indoor event instead, manpower stretched thin by events
at the un in New York this week.

Speaker 2 (01:45:56):
Damn n. So those are the things going on again.
We're in the final stretch. It is every day. I
mean you just go online and look at the poll numbers,
look at all of the stuff, look at the way
that AI is looking at things. It is hard to
get a full grip on which way this race is

(01:46:17):
going to go. I've said from the beginning it's going
to be very very tight. There are seven states that
are going to decide this. I don't know.

Speaker 6 (01:46:25):
You know.

Speaker 2 (01:46:25):
Some people say, well, maybe Florida could flip. If Florida
flipped to the Democrats, it's all over. Do I think
that's going to happen? No, I don't. Is it a possibility.
Anything is a possibility, So we'll see. I mean, is
it possible that she runs all seven swing states?

Speaker 9 (01:46:42):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (01:46:42):
Is it possible he does the same one hundred percent.
So we don't know what this looks like, but we
do know what's going to be close absolutely, which brings
us to our stupid information of the day. And then
I go and.

Speaker 1 (01:46:54):
Smoil it all by say something stupid.

Speaker 2 (01:46:58):
We'll take stupid pills this morning.

Speaker 25 (01:47:00):
It's the honest ones you want to watch out for,
because you can never predict they're going to do something
incredibly stupid.

Speaker 2 (01:47:07):
Now you're the fat, stupid one with the big mouth.

Speaker 1 (01:47:10):
Is stupid, little last try.

Speaker 2 (01:47:13):
You should never underestimate the predictability of STUPI piditing. Now
it's time for stupid information. Hey, if you guys didn't
hear the end of Finally Friday in the sounds there
trump Ben Harris talking about McDonald's.

Speaker 8 (01:47:30):
For a long time.

Speaker 22 (01:47:32):
She's been talking about her experience at McDonald's.

Speaker 9 (01:47:35):
I worked at McDonald's over the French fries who were
so hot. I think I'm going to go to a
McDonald's next week and I'm going to work the French
fry job.

Speaker 8 (01:47:42):
For about a half an hour. I want to see
how it is.

Speaker 9 (01:47:45):
But she never worked there, and these fake news reporters
will never report it.

Speaker 8 (01:47:50):
They don't want to report it.

Speaker 9 (01:47:51):
She never worked at McDonald's, but it was a big
part of her resume.

Speaker 8 (01:47:55):
Went to the different places that you work here, that
you work here?

Speaker 10 (01:47:58):
Did you work here?

Speaker 8 (01:48:00):
She said, We don't know who the hell she is.
Leave us alone with making hamburgers.

Speaker 2 (01:48:04):
You know, it's funny because if you go online and look,
did she work there? Did she not work there? I
don't know if she did or didn't. People say, how
dare he ask you that question? But McDonald's has not
confirmed or denied that she worked there. You would think
they would come out and say so. But there are
people that have worked there. Here's your stupid information of today.
Some of the CEOs around the globe, most powerful people
you would think in the world, got their start slang

(01:48:27):
in Fries the likes of Bezos, Jay Leno, right. I mean,
you know Cheryl Palmer, who is, of course executive of
Taylor Morris, one of the biggest home building companies on
the planet, Paul Ryan, Andrew Card, former White House Chief
of staff for Bush, Carl Lewis, great athlete. Just a

(01:48:47):
few people that have worked at McDonald's. So what do
you think of apples? That are those apples? Three two, three, five,
three eight, twenty four to twenty three at Chad Benson
show to your Twitter, your Instagram right here on the
Chad Benson Show. Solid fun shows these week again, we
were off the first today. I want to thank Craig
for filling in. We're traveling. We're taking the show on

(01:49:08):
the road, if you will, kids. And right now we're
in the middle of the day louge out here in
Nashville as the rains from Helene just continue to pour in.
Next week another week for these candidates to do something.
So it's going to be very interesting to see how
these things play out in the coming days because voting
has already started early voting. People have already got their
mail in ballots in a lot of places. How much

(01:49:29):
time is left for either of these candidates to sway
some of these people. That is going to be the
big question. How many of them are swayable as well?
Three two, three, twenty four to twenty three. You guys
have a blessed day and weekend. We will do it
again on Monday as always, Night Night Jack.

Speaker 11 (01:49:44):
This is the Chad Benson Show.
