Episode Transcript

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

Speaker 2 (00:15):
Benzie apocalyptic best way to describe what took place over
the last several days throughout the Southeast. I'm out here
right now, and while we got remnants of some of
it here in Tennessee, it has not been horrific in
some areas. We're out here in Nashville, it's not been bad.
It's just been dreary and nasty, but neighboring states. Absolutely,

(00:36):
apocalyptic is the best way to describe it. You've got Ashville,
who is in a situation right now where they're having
to airlift stuff in and out. And we're not just
talking about people, We're just talking about things like food, water,
things of that nature.

Speaker 3 (00:52):
Yesterday we began airlifting supplies, including food and water into
the region. A number of nash feeding sites have been open. Water,
food and other supplies were coming into Ashville, and they're
also being airlifted from there to surrounding counties.

Speaker 2 (01:09):
Frightening. We always joke about nature messing you up. Nature,
we'll do what nature does. And nature came and decided
I'm going to do something. Here.

Speaker 4 (01:18):
Here's the one, here's the two went wham. Before Helene
even made landfall. Before that rain from that storm even
made it into the Carolinas, they were already getting heavy
rain from a frontal boundary that was really rain soaked,
had plenty of moisture, and was already giving them heavy
rain in this area of the Appalachian Mountains. And so

(01:39):
they already saw four five inches of rain in this
area before Helene even got there. Then the very next day,
after they got flooding from that, then Helene started and
gave them two days of heavy rain.

Speaker 2 (01:51):
And not just heavy rain. We're talking there are places
that had thirty inches of rain in a couple of days.
I mean, it is crazy see the amount of rain.
And when we talk about hurricanes, we always talk about
the stuff that does the damage, the wind. Obviously it's like,
oh my god, it is the rain though, that does
the massive amounts of damage. And when it stalls, like

(02:14):
it did over places, it just releases hell.

Speaker 4 (02:18):
Put it into some perspective. It was the largest storm
that we've seen in America since Irma in twenty seventeen.
This was four hundred and twenty miles wide wo of
tropical storm force winds, four hundred and twenty miles of
that and this storm had so much moisture with it.

Speaker 2 (02:38):
And the moisture is what does the massive damage. And
it has been a nightmare, you know. So we're out
here and we're we're enjoying it. The kids love it
because it's been rainy, right, like it's we we're not
getting torrential downpours. We're getting steady rain for the last
several days. And you know, we're from Arizona. So the
kids like this is amazing, you know, right and there,
you know, here in Dallas and I was like, oh,

(03:00):
oh my god, you had a little bit of rain here.
But this is like you know, when you're a kid,
you don't see rain. It's awesome. But the real world
implications of what's going on the amount of rescues that
had to happen, which is just nuts. This is Roy Cooper,
governor of North Carolina, talking about what they've had to do.

Speaker 3 (03:19):
Search and rescue teams, including nineteen teams from other states
and three federal teams, have rescued hundreds of people, including
more than one hundred rescued by the North Carolina National Guard.

Speaker 2 (03:32):
Yeah, and like I said, they're having to get food
shipped in, airlifted, air dropped, on top of that, just
for communications segments, they've had to put starlink in several
places just so people could call out and thank God
for starlink, right, I know, everybody, But the reality is

(03:54):
Starlink's awesome.

Speaker 3 (03:55):
We are sending resources and coordinating closely with local government,
first responders, state and federal partners, and volunteer organizations to
help those impacted by this tragic storm.

Speaker 2 (04:09):
And there's plenty of them that have been impacted. So
hearts and prayers with a lot of people who are affected.
If you're listening, God bless you. Just stay as dry
as you can and stay safe, and we're going to
have some more information obviously throughout the day on this.
But it is crazy what nature can do when nature
wants to. And nature decided to rear its ugly head,

(04:31):
and you could see it and you could go, Okay,
I know I need to do this, this and this,
but you never know what Just like a tornado, you
never know which way it's going to go, and you
never know what's going to do that's going to cause
it to release something else that's going to cause that
domino effect of nature. And be safe out there. Three two, three,
five three eight, twenty four to twenty three, actally had

(04:52):
Benson show Twitter, your Instagram, all of the other things.
One of the other things we're watching here. You know,
we're days away from an election. Obviously, we're like thirty
five days away from election. And that's a big deal
because you know, it's democracy apparently always on the ballot,
never not on the ballot. But if you're not paying
attention to something that's not sexy and I'm not talking
about what's going on in you know, Israel, We're going

(05:14):
to get to that in a second. Tonight there may
be a strike at the ports, and this is we
talk about. One of the things for the inflation issue
that we have seen over the years is what a
break in the supply chain. So you break the supply chain,
and then you give people a bunch of money, and

(05:34):
then they want to buy stuff, and then all of
the stuff stuff becomes well, there isn't enough stuff, and
then it goes up. There is a chance we're going
to see a break in the supply chain here in
the United States at the ports.

Speaker 5 (05:46):
Fourteen ports from New England to Texas could shut down
Tuesday at midnight. Up to thirty six could be affected
those crucial hubs responsible for nearly thirty five percent of
all US imports and exports. International Longshoreman's Association demanding higher
hourly wages in their new contract and a ban on
automated cranes, gates, and trucks. A prolonged strike could mean

(06:10):
delayed shipping and higher prices for Americans on things like clothes, electronics, cars,
and food like canned goods and fresh produce.

Speaker 2 (06:19):
One of the things, though, is strike while the irons hot.
We're at that time of the year when Christmas essentially
is upon us. If you go into a store, you
see the Halloween stuff, but Christmas creep is real. It's everywhere.
Here goes what potentially could be a massive nightmare for

(06:43):
a lot of people out there in businesses that need
this because you have to make hay, and making hay
is Christmas time. Making hay is that big opportunity throughout
the year when you know, okay, these are the things
that we are going to be doing when it comes
to our Christmas time, and all of a sudden, you

(07:06):
are now sitting in a situation where you're scrambling trying
to find ways you can fly stuff in. You're not
getting as much you're going to. This is a potential
nightmare for a time of the year that people count on,
especially small businesses.

Speaker 5 (07:18):
The US Maritime Alliance, representing the shippers and ports, says
it's committed to negotiating, but claims the union is not
bargaining in good faith. The Biden administration urging both sides
to negotiate fairly and quickly.

Speaker 2 (07:32):
Well that's nice of him. Fairly and quickly. Now here's
the thing about this. You say, okay, well, what's the
strike do Let's just say, first of all, five billion
a day on average lost, let's just say the strike
last ten days. How many days is it going to
take to fix that situation.

Speaker 6 (07:49):
Concerns are also growing about recovering from a strike. According
to the National Retail Federation, a one day shutdown takes
three to five days to recover from. The longer it goes,
the worse it gets.

Speaker 2 (08:02):
Three to five days. Let's just say it's three days
for thirty days, that would be ninety days. So three days,
and I'm doing the three days only instead of five.
But if they struck for thirty that'd be ninety day recovery.
And what they want is what a lot of people
are upset about, right, which is the fact that AI

(08:22):
and this new world that we're in where less humans
means less jobs in certain situations, and the crane is
a big one. I've got a couple buddies who are
crane operators in Long Beach and they've been there for
a long time. And let me tell you something. They
make a gank of money. And those are those big
cranes that are hundreds of feet in the air and

(08:43):
they take the stuff off the boats. But they've talked
about it for years, the automation side of it and
the worry of it replacing them. Is it possible? Of
course it is. Anything is possible. So they're trying to
do what the animation people and the writers tried to
do during their strike, which is, you guys, can't have

(09:06):
AI writing anything. And you and I both know that
that's just not going to happen. It isn't It's not
going to happen at all. It's going to You can
pretend that it's going to happen. But the fact is
AI moves at such a pace and intelligence the way
that it is now as far as the way that
it's growing, and it is growing at a pace that you, guys,
I'm here to tell you it's not going anywhere. It's here,

(09:30):
and you can use it, and if you're smart, you
can really supercharge your life in serious ways. But fighting
it is stupid. It's right, it's like it's it's I
see people try to fight it. It can't. But what
you can do is figure out how to use it
in a way that is going to benefit you. And

(09:53):
just to show you how fast this has grown, the
great article today in Axios, Remember was like sixteen months
ago that really this you know, AI chat GPT came
out and they talked about At that time it was
elementary school kind of stuff. Flash forward though realistically, in
about a year it is no longer elementary. It is

(10:15):
now PhD and it's only going to get better. The
biggest issue is going to be powering it. We'll talk
about that a little bit later. But this kind of
stuff is real world stuff with real world implications. At
a time when we've already seen inflation go up and
it stayed there. I know, Biden came out and says,
we've been inflation, it's back to pre pandemic levels. No,
it's not. You're on drugs maybe, but it's not. This

(10:40):
is real world implications though. These things are real world
implications because at a time when we like to get
ready to get your Christmas shop on, get this stuff going,
the fact that we can have a supply chain break
is ugly. Three two three, five, three eight, twenty four,
twenty three at chadbent it shows your Twitter tweet at

the other big news we're going to be covering throughout

(11:21):

about that, the implications of that, which is huge tomorrow night.

bit about that as well into immigration. So much stuff

Speaker 1 (12:58):
Choe, you're listening to the Chad Benson Show.

Speaker 7 (13:11):
Vice President Kamala Harrison Las Vegas last night, touting her
plan to support small businesses, also pushing a proposal to
lower housing prices, providing down payment assistance to first time
home buyers.

Speaker 8 (13:22):
Right now, a serious housing shortage is part of what
is driving up cost. So we will cut the red
tape and work with the private sector to build three
million new homes.

Speaker 7 (13:34):
The Harris campaign raising fifty five million dollars over the
weekend at fundraisers in California.

Speaker 2 (13:40):
That's big money right there. This is it? What are we?
Thirty five days away from the election? Some places have
already started voting, and it is getting serious, to say
the least. And the battle is real and it's personal,
which drives me crazy.

Speaker 7 (13:54):
Trump ramping up personal attacks on Harris Gamala is mentally impaired,
while blaming the Biden administration for crime. Trump suggesting allowing
police to be violent for one day to solve the problem.

Speaker 9 (14:07):
Now, if you had one really violent day, one rough hour,
and I mean real rough, the word.

Speaker 10 (14:14):
Will get out and it will end immediately.

Speaker 2 (14:18):
I think I've seen that movie and it starts like this.
That's the Purge right there. If you guys don't know
what to that is, that's a movie. I think he's kidding.
But you know, the personal attacks drive me crazy. It's
no reason to get personal. It doesn't serve any purpose.

(14:39):
And this goes back to the crowd, right. He wants
to impress the crowd, which drives me absolutely freaking bonkers.
It does. Do you think it's serious about the Purge?
God knows with him? Maybe, Oh my god, no, wonder
the Purge was trending over the weekend. Oh jeez. Debates,

(15:01):
debates and more debates. I think he should debate again.

Speaker 8 (15:05):
The American people have a right to hear us discuss
the issues. And as you say here in Las Vegas,
I'm all in.

Speaker 2 (15:14):
She's all in, kids, she's all in. She's way in.
She's gouldn't get more in if she tried. She's hear
in big time. Yeah, they're not going to debate again.
Tomorrow night there is a debate though for those who
are not keeping score, there will be a day of
debate tomorrow night between the VP candidates. Tim Walls was asked,
how are you doing, governor? How are you feeling about debate?

Speaker 11 (15:33):
Prized?

Speaker 2 (15:34):
Are everybody's going on?

Speaker 10 (15:36):
Going great?

Speaker 2 (15:37):
This is a fun party three two, three, five, three eight,
twenty four to twenty three at Chad Benson Show. Is
your Twitter? Feel free to tweet at his text the
program right here on the Chad Benson Show. Yeah. He
also said he was rather nervous about tomorrow night, which
is understandable because he's not a national figure and he's
got the chance now to get out there and to

(15:59):
prove his worth on the election. We'll see if this does.
Jd vance tomorrow night. He's gonna just be the attack
dog that he is and take on Walls head on,
and I think he's going to destroy him. I'm not
the only one. Here's the lonely Scott at CNN.

Speaker 10 (16:14):
Walls is a buffoon. I'm sorry this guy.

Speaker 12 (16:16):
He's the only school teacher in America who brags at
none of his students can get into an Ivy League school.
He said one consequential press interaction with our Dana Vash
who asked him about the fabrications in his own resume,
and his answer was essentially MINO understand words good. I mean,
he's a buffoon. He's on a free ride for running
under Harris. He gets very little pressed. They don't let

(16:37):
him talk to the press for a reason. I want
one thing out of this debate. I want jd Vance
to go out there and get under his skin. He
has legendary hot, short temper. A lot of governors do,
but he apparently he does. I want jd Vance to
go out there and have him explain why he is
denigrating jd Vance's story small town America ends up making something.

Speaker 10 (16:57):
Better out of his life, which is something we should
want for every I.

Speaker 2 (17:00):
Think Jade Vance is going to mop the floor with him.
I think jad Vance is a guy that is brilliant.
He's comfortable in front of a camera. He may say
things you don't agree with, but there's a certain comfortability
that he enjoys in front of a camera. Walls does
not enjoy that. I know that's part of the small
city charm, but the reality is I think tomorrow night

(17:21):
he's going to do the business. I think people on
the left will think walls win, people on the right
think jad Vance wins. What do people in the middle
think about and does it really matter? Three two, three, five, three, eight,
twenty four, twenty three at chat, Benson shows your Twitter.
It is the Chad Benson.

Speaker 11 (17:33):
Shown Chad Benson, Joe.

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

Speaker 2 (18:04):
There's a job opening if you want it. It's a
c suite kind of job. There's a CEO position open
in Lebanon because Hesbelah is without a leader.

Speaker 13 (18:16):
Hassan Ostrolo, the leader of the terrorist army Rizbala, was
killed by Israel Defense forces in a precise strike in
Beirut last night while he was in Risbala's central headquarters
commanding more imminent attacks against the people of Israel.

Speaker 2 (18:33):
Yeah, so they blew his assa bunker busters, two thousand
pounds bombs, bunker busted it. And this is a guy
that we've wanted for years. And by the way, Ntyaw
was giving a fiery speech on Friday, you know, talking
about the anti Semitism inside the UN which is very real.
While all that is going on, they're dropping these bombs

(18:55):
and not only did they take him out, They were
a little deeper.

Speaker 14 (18:58):
Fifteen individual key lieutenants below Israla have also been eliminated
in a short period of time. So that can't help
it to have a sort of decapitating, a disruptive, degrading
effect on the whole movement.

Speaker 2 (19:13):
Now they've vowed to fight on, we would expect nothing less.
But it's good. This guy's a bad dude. He was
a very bad dude. He was one of the people
that's part of the access of a holes, right, you know,
I mean all aligned with Iran, and Iran of course
is done. We're going to come get you. No your
old talk, because what you're doing is you're watching your
proxies get their asses handed to them, and you don't

(19:36):
want to You don't want any of that. You don't
want any of what they have to offer. You want
none of that. Hesballah will just continue to take your
money and fight on and on and on and on.
The question is when do you start to get to
the point though, where your resources. I mean, right now,
Israel is the best military in the world. I mean,

(19:57):
are we bigger and better? Yes, because we're bigger and
our technology and everything. But as far as just how
they collect data, how they use data, and what they do.
You're not gonna find anybody better pound for pound at
this moment in time. You're just not. That's how bad
ass they are.

Speaker 15 (20:15):
What's clear at this stage is that the Israeli military
campaign in Lebanon against Hezbolla is by no means finished.
I mean, Israeli officials are saying that they believe they
have significantly degraded Hesbola's ability to fight medium and long
range missiles at Israel. They're conceding that there is still
some capacity within Hesbolla to strike at Israel, and they

(20:37):
still see Hesbolla as.

Speaker 2 (20:38):
A thread because they are still threat I mean, you know,
it's still a group of people that has First of all,
they're a large group of people. This is not a
small group. You look over and you look at somebody
like hamas much smaller group of folk. But they can
obviously more than handle business when they want to get evil.

Speaker 4 (20:59):
They have.

Speaker 2 (21:02):
Hesblah is much larger in nature, and they have better,
more sophisticated weapons.

Speaker 16 (21:09):
Has Bala, despite the pounding they have taken over the
past two weeks, is an incredibly resilient organization and has
tens of thousands of fighters under its command, probably only
have lost about fifteen twenty percent of its rocket, missile
and drone capability, has a global terrorist attack capability as
well that it has used.

Speaker 2 (21:29):
All of those things are true, but you've lost your
spiritual leader, the head of everything, which is he wasn't
just the head of stuff. I mean, this guy was
a leader for a lot of people in Lebanon. And
one of those part of it is psychological when you
can damage a group and get to that person who
is still a part of it, you know, like when

(21:50):
it came to al Qaeda, right Osama bin laden was
he was a relic. Right They had been decimated across
the board, and he was maybe I mean for the
he was a bit of a spiritual kind of figure,
but he wasn't what he was pre nine to eleven.

(22:12):
And right afterwards he was on the run and he
was exhausted, and he paid the price as he should have.
This guy was still all up in it and they
looked at him. Now here's the thing with Israel. As
badass as you are, the fact is your stretch thin.

Speaker 16 (22:26):
This is really opening up multiple fronts for the Israeli military.
And other security agencies to manage simultaneously. Israel hasn't really
confronted anything like this, going back almost fifty years to
the Young Kapor War in the nineteen sixty seven words.

Speaker 2 (22:43):
And it was different. I mean, that was quick, and
they reacted in such a way with jets and did
things that was crazy. This is much different. And so
I say that because now you've got right, you're fighting
in Gaza, you've got the West Bank, You've gone over

(23:04):
and hit Iran a couple times, then you go into Lebanon,
and this morning Yemen.

Speaker 17 (23:10):
Israel delivering a heavy blow in Yemen, conducting large scale
air strikes against Iranian back to Houthi's a third front
in this war, now approaching a year of relentless and
deadly fighting, Israel saying the assault comes after Houthi militants
fired a missile at Tel Aviv and was intended to
weaken the Houthis and to send a message to Iran.

(23:31):
Both the Houthis and Hezbollah militants back by Iran have
been designated terrorist organizations by the United.

Speaker 2 (23:37):
States, as they should because they are. And again I
go back to this with Iran. You want nothing to
do with this. You talk a good game, but you
did nothing. Now normally you would react in a way
where you'd fire some stuff off, and he was how
he did something. But this has gotten serious because they've
been in your home, they have killed your guest, they've
gone after your people and your game that you talk,

(23:59):
you understand what the capability is. You're seeing your proxies
getting eviscerated, and you want to know part of it.
Here's the other thing. Biden can get out there and go, well,
we're working hard to get a siege fire. It ain't happening. Brother.
In fact, they're not even talking to us anymore. When
it comes to that. They have moved on. They think
you're weak, you're feckless. They think you should hand everything

(24:21):
over to everybody that you're up against because you have
more power apparently, and you should just give in and
allow it's not happening. That's the part that should really
worry us. Because we fired stuff into Syria. I know,
we don't really do any of that stuff. According to
this administration, we have nobody who's in harm's way, which
again is a lie. But we're at a point now

(24:43):
where our allies, our only ally really in that region,
the only democracy in that region no longer trust us
and seize our leadership as weak because it has been
I remember what Gates said going back in the day.
I mean, this guy work with you know, Reagan and Bush,
and he working with Obama, and everybody said, Joe Biden
has been wrong for four decades on every single major

(25:08):
foreign affair. And he's been wrong here three two, three, five,
three eight, twenty four to twenty three at shead Benson
shows your Twitter tweet at US tax the program. Immigration
obviously hot topic. She being the Vice president, Matt and
vice president went to the border and basically was useless,

(25:29):
completely useless down there. I think we recognize how useless
she has been on the border. Her people are out
there though, spinning the hopes and prayers that you'll forget
over the last three and a half years, what a
nightmare the border has been.

Speaker 18 (25:43):
And obviously immigration is going to be a topic of discussion,
and it's an important one and it's something that's on
the mind of American voters, which again which is why
Vice President Harris visited the border yesterday. And I think
the point that she is making is that look at
what is happening somebody is actually putting in the work,
and somebody is talking about it, and can continuing to
stand in the way of progress. Vice President Harris supported

(26:04):
a bipartisan bill that would have been the strongest and
toughest on border and immigration in American history. Donald Trump
opposed that bill and told Republicans to blow it up.

Speaker 2 (26:15):
Did he was it the right thing to do. Well,
here's the thing, as Ralph Norman puts it, here, devil
is in the details. Okay, the devil is in the details.
Here's a governor talking about that about you got to
pay attention to what's inside these things. Because the bill
itself wasn't really about stopping anything from any people from

(26:40):
really coming here. It was about limiting certain amounts coming
in certain ways, but it was still wide open.

Speaker 19 (26:46):
Let's take the so called agreement bipartisan that was worked
on that. Let as an example, fifteen thousand per day
come in. We've already got fifteen million. If this administration
want to do anything about it, they would have done
something day one. But they've done just the opposite. So
what he said is just not true. That agreement was

(27:08):
nothing but to give the Democrats cover when you still
let fifteen thousand per day that they had the right
to do. That was in the agreement. And the devil
is in the details on any of this, as you know.
So it doesn't it doesn't hold water. Look at the
deaths that have happened from the illegals. And she's not
going to do anything about it. She was the borderzar,

(27:30):
and what she do the four and a half years,
three and a half years that she's been in office,
absolutely nothing.

Speaker 2 (27:37):
He's absolutely right. So and the fifteen thousand, he said,
well that's not true. Well, here's the thing. Remember what
they did. They were going to limit a certain amount
of people coming through in the port side of stuff,
and then once it got to a certain level, just
like they've done with the information, how oh my god,
look at it. It's it's pre it's pre Trump era

(27:58):
kind of collapse in the number when it comes to
people crossing illegally. Even at Trump at his best, it's
still pre it's still below that, which is a bunch
of bs. And I'll tell you why, because they're not
counting on people flying in, which is what they've been doing.
Every administration plays with numbers. You have to look through

(28:18):
and get the real numbers, even with the crime numbers,
and we've talked about, well, the FBI doesn't do this
and they don't look at that, and this city didn't report,
so we can say that this is down, but we
don't have the full picture. What's the full picture? If
you're going to allow anywhere between ten and fifteen thousand
a day before anything's really triggered to stop it, and

(28:39):
that doesn't include godaways, you're not fixing anything. You're just
moving the numbers around. And all you're doing with this
border bills. Yes, you were increasing judges and certain things
like that, but you were just basically giving them secretaries
and data takers and information gatherers rather than actual border

(29:00):
help the way that they need it, which is first
and foremost about enforcing the law three two, three, five,
three eight, twenty four to twenty three Act. You had

Raycon best earbuds around. Love my Raycon, you will love yours.
Wear them every single day. In fact, I have them
on now. I'm traveling and because of that, I have
my computer with me and I'm not hooked up to

(29:20):
the big board that normally you hear me and because
of that, I've can bluetooth it in, so I'll wear
my Raycons all day, sometimes hours upon hours a day.
And why is that? The fit comfortable, doesn't hurt my ears?
The feel absolutely incredible when you're talking about the sound,
the way that you don't even feel them in your ears.

(29:40):
You've got one thing that I find so amazing in this.
The fast charging is incredible, the multi connectivity is incredible.
But they've got active noise cancelation as well. With the
new everyday earbuds eight hours of talk time, thirty two
hours of batter your life, the best sound quality at
a price that will not break the bank. How about this,
I get you a pair of these with fifteen percent off,

Chair running with scissors. Sounds great compared to this.

Speaker 17 (30:37):
All the big loops all capture confirmed.

Speaker 21 (30:41):
The SpaceX crew Dragon nine docking at the International Space Station,
another crucial step in bringing home NASA astronauts. Butch Wilmore
and Sunny Williams. NASA pulling two crew members off the
four seed vessel, leaving empty seats for Wilmore and Williams,
who won't return until February twenty twenty five.

Speaker 18 (31:01):
Coming through the hatch and seeing all the smiles and
as much as I've laughed and cried in the last
ten minutes.

Speaker 2 (31:07):
I know it's gonna be an amazing expedition.

Speaker 21 (31:11):
The pair left at the International Space Station in June
when NASA and Boeing decided to send the Starliner they
were test piloting back to Earth, labeling it a commitment
to safety.

Speaker 2 (31:21):
Yeah. So remember that Boeing's had some issues and they're
not good right here in the air lately, and they're
awesome not apparently really good in space. But they were
supposed to be there for eight days. They're not coming
home until February. That is crazy. And then SpaceX had
to change everything up and instead of sending for they

(31:43):
sent two so they can get these two and bring
them home. And the whole thought of having to ask
Elon I'm sure sucked big time. Hey, is there any
way they could hitch a ride with you? He's like
a yeah, yes, fine, I'll do it just as once.

(32:05):
Do you guys owe me? Just letting you guys know
that speaking of oh, are we going to owe the
port work or something? And this is a story that
needs more press and we'll talk about it as it
becomes a reality. But the port, you know, we talk
about supply chains, the importance of supply chains. This is

(32:28):
maybe the most important supply chain here in America is
the ports. And guess what they may go on strike tonight.

Speaker 5 (32:37):
Forty five thousand DOC workers threatening to walk off the
job Tuesday at midnight, which could have a major impact
on the US economy. The International Longshoreman's Association demanding higher
hourly wages over the course of a new contract and
a ban on automated cranes, gates, and trucks. The US
Maritime Alliance representing the ports, says it is committed to negotiating,

(32:59):
but claims the union is not bargaining in good faith.
If both sides remain deadlocked, several of the nation's highest
grossing ports could shut down, causing severe supply chain disruptions
and potentially costing the US economy billions of dollars a day.

Speaker 2 (33:14):
About five billion a day is what they're calculating. Now,
here's the thing. Let's just say it lasts for a
week or two. Much like when we talk about flying,
where you miss something here and you miss something there,
then the domino start and the cancelations and it's a nightmare.
Same thing with this. If there's a couple weeks off,
it becomes a nightmare in putting this thing back together quickly,

(33:38):
especially because at that time of the year when yes,
the holidays are here, and if you're going into any
store now you notice not on they have Halloween stuff up,
but there's Christmas creep as well.

Speaker 6 (33:47):
Concerns are also growing about recovering from a strike. According
to the National Retail Federation, a one day shutdown takes
three to five days to recover from. The longer it goes,
the worse it gets.

Speaker 2 (34:00):
That's huge. And the time of year it matters. The
time of year matters. And the thing is, you want
to strike while the iron's hot. So we've talked about
this with Boeing. They're striking now and you haven't heard
a lot about it. Right they went on the strike.
Nobody cares at this moment in time. You're not striking
while the iron is hot in the sense that you're

(34:21):
not just crushing it. You've had nothing but bad press.
They're striking while the iron's hot, because it's that time
of the year that matters. If they do this in
say February, nobody really pays that much attention to it.
While it'll hurt, it isn't the same as the holidays,
and so that's striking while the iron is hot. But
five billion a day. And then so if they strike

(34:46):
for thirty days and it takes how many days, potentially
three to five days. I mean, if they strike for
ten days, that's a month. They strike for thirty days,
that potentially is night you need to one hundred and
fifty days to catch back up. That is crazy, absolute craziness.

(35:07):
Are we prepared for that? We'll find out. But this
has the potential of something that's not being talked about
that have a huge, huge impact on what we do
in this country at a time of year when businesses
absolutely cannot see any kind of issues again because it's
the holidays, and this is when they make hay three two, three, five, three, eight,

(35:31):
twenty four, twenty three at Chad Benson Show, is your
Twitter tweet at is text to show right here in
the Chad Benson Show. A lot of stuff still to
get to. Obviously, what's going on in Israel with Hasblah,
the question next is it going to be Yemen? Is
there a chance that Yemen is next? They've already opened
up several fronts. This is the widest they've had it

(35:53):
in fifty years, and they do not seem to be
wanting to slow this thing down. We're going to talk
a lot about that, more on the hurricane that became
a tropical storm, that became biblical in nature. Tomorrow night.
You've got a debate with Walls and JD Vance will
not have any impact at all. So much stuff to
get you at Chad Benson Show. Twitter, check out the YouTube.

(36:14):
We're gonna be putting more and more stuff up there
every single day. We've got the Facebook as well, and
of course Instagram. At Chad Benson Show. It is the
Chad Benson Show.

Speaker 1 (36:22):
This is the Chad Benson Show, Independent Thoughts, Independent Life,

(36:52):
This is Chad Benson.

Speaker 22 (36:53):
A number of TikTok users have been posting videos that
use AI to translate eight off Hitler's speeches into English.

Speaker 13 (37:01):
Let's take a look at they're.

Speaker 10 (37:02):
Eating the dogs. The people that came in.

Speaker 2 (37:05):
They're eating the cats. There's a lot of people out
there who believe that Trump is Adolf Hitler. Every time
I do this all the time, people think Trump is
Adolf Hitler, and they think when they hear Trump, they
think this it's tight Favenden in Vincet night five, Just

(37:28):
heat up and y'all done three filmy games for fifty.
Then they think that's a Magarelly. That's what's insane. They
think it's a magaally that he is Adolf Hitler, and
he is not Adolf Hitler. I continue to go back
to this. You can talk about democracies at stake and

(37:48):
he's the most racist individual in American all that kind
of crap. It's all against a bunch of baloney. But
when you go out there and throw around he's Adolf Hitler,
you're an asset. That is just that is not even
close to the truth. It isn't remember who Adolf Hitler was,
what he did, and what he started before you start

(38:10):
to just think about that for a second, before you
start to go, well, maybe he's not eight offen. Maybe
he's just a guy that says inflammatory things. Maybe he's
just just get a grip. That's all I'm saying. Speaking
of that election thirty five days away. They're just all
angling for this person. That person's demographics, demographics, demographics. How

(38:35):
is Trump doing with the Latinos?

Speaker 23 (38:37):
We ask a basic question of Hispanic voters, which party
do you more identify with? Thirty seven percent now say Republicans,
forty nine percent say Democrats. But again, look at how
this has shifted in just the last dozen years. In
twenty twelve, this was a forty one point advantage for
the Democrats. It has come all the way down to
twelve points, Kristen, a twenty nine point drop in terms

(39:00):
of that gap there on which party Hispanics identify with
in just twelve years.

Speaker 2 (39:06):
Twelve years. That is huge twelve years or one of
the things I've always said, you know what was the
old saying that Reagan used to say, Hispanics are Republicans,
They just don't know it yet. There's a lot of
things that Hispanics Latinos are that aren't very democratic. And

(39:29):
by democratic, i'm talking about the party, the Democratic Party.
They're not woke. They're much more socially conservative in a
lot of ways, especially when it comes to things like abortion,
things of that nature, because they're you know, predominantly Catholic.
So it's interesting that it has taken this long and

(39:52):
somebody who has fiery rhetoric about the border, you would think,
because I think that's what the Democrats say, is well,
you know, he's talking about the border, and he's talking
about all these things. And because he's talking about all
these things that you must mean every Hispanic person, because
that's all they see is growing across the border, is

(40:13):
Hispanic people. They must feel that this guy's evil. And
it's not that. It's not that way. I told you
guys this a thousand times. My grandfather was born and
raised in Mexico. Passed away a couple of years ago,
but he was a huge proponent of building a wall,
keeping people on the other side who don't do it legally.
It was frustrating to him because he went through the process,

(40:36):
and the process took a long time, even way back
in the day, it took a while. This is Maria Hinosa.
She is a Mexican American journalist and what she has
to say about Latinos is well, very whitening.

Speaker 24 (40:52):
Kennedy, Well, this is the one that is supposed to
be with Vice President Harris at fifty four percent.

Speaker 10 (40:59):
It's a fourteen point lead. Is that it the bottom number?

Speaker 3 (41:02):
Yes?

Speaker 25 (41:03):
So there it is.

Speaker 24 (41:03):
So she has a fourteen point lead, but it has
been shrinking after each consecutive a presidential election from twenty sixteen.

Speaker 10 (41:15):
Why is that?

Speaker 24 (41:16):
Why is the Democratic share of the of the Latino
vote shrinking?

Speaker 26 (41:21):
And what I said to you when we asked the
question was Latinos want to be white. Wait what Latinos
want to be white. They want to be with the
cool kid.

Speaker 2 (41:34):
Latinos want to be white. They want to be with
the cool kids. She said that out loud. That is insane.
But that's the new part of the Democratic Party, right
Like if you're if you were black and you're and
you support Trump, well you're part of the new white supremacy.
If you're Latino and you support Trump, you're part of
the new white supremacy. This is how they push this

(41:56):
out there, is if you're not with us, you must
be a racist and you're part of the new white
sup They.

Speaker 26 (42:00):
Want to be with the cool kids. They want to
be I'm asking Latinos all the time and they just say, well,
it said Donald Trump is done when niosiente, he's such
a good businessman. It's like, no, he's not. He had bankruptcies.
But they don't want to be identified with all of
those other immigrants that Donald Trump speaks so badly of,

(42:21):
including me as a Mexican immigrant. So they're like, we'd
rather read let's be with him. But those numbers, they
could cost Kamala Harris the election. Everything that I've been
saying that Latinos could push her over the top, these
are the numbers that could also take her down.

Speaker 2 (42:38):
Yeah, they could, because here's one thing that Latino voters
are not a monolith. They're not going to vote the
way that they've always voted. You see Black Americans who
continue to give Democrats the vote even though nothing has
changed in their life. Isn't getting any better based on
the promises they're made by politicians and Mexican Americans I'm

(43:02):
doing Americans are Latin Americans, Hispanic and whatever. They look
around and say, dad, no, and by can we just talk, Well,
he had bankruptcies. Every major corporation, for the most part,
has had some sort of bankruptcy. And the way that
bankruptcies work in business is different. It's different than the

(43:26):
way that you would think the average person goes and
being broken, being bankrupt. That's part of the reason business
people don't freak out of it, like that's just cost
of doing business.

Speaker 13 (43:36):
That is.

Speaker 2 (43:38):
So that is also one of those things they throw
out there that oh, he's just a horrible business man.
He's had bankruptcies. Stand in line with a lot of
other super successful business people that have had numerous bankruptcies,
numerous bank and I'm talking about mega bankruptcies over and

(43:58):
over again. You set up a business, you have an LLC,
that portion of it fails, you bankrupt it, and you
move on. That's not very nice. That's just business. That's
the way it's always been, the way it's always will be.
Just throwing that out there. But numbers, let's talk numbers.
Let's get back to that really quick. So on Friday,
the numbers were released. What numbers were those? Chiap, head

(44:20):
of Immigration and custom Enforcement, told a Texas border lawmaker
this week, four hundred and thirty five thousand undocumented migrants
with criminal convictions have been released by the agencies to
cities around these here United States of America. What now,
that is a lot of those four hundred and thirty

(44:44):
seven and nineteen are convicted criminals, two hundred and twenty
six eight hundred and forty seven have pending criminal charges.
So a total of six hundred and sixty two thousand,
five hundred and sixty six non citizens who have either
been convicted and or are awaiting hearings for crimes. Those

(45:07):
are not good numbers. Just want to point that out.
Those are not winning numbers when you're talking about what's
going on at the border. Those are failing numbers. And
that's the frustration that all of us have with what's
going on at the border, which is absolutely nothing. She
can go down there and say, well, you know Trump

(45:28):
didn't want this thing, so he didn't get it done.
He told everybody to kill it. We went over at
last hour, did the do the actual reading of the bill.
That bill wasn't making us safer. It was giving some
more stuff to the border patrol, and it was updating
certain things, but most of what it was doing was

(45:49):
essentially giving them people to help get the people through quicker.
It still had massive amounts of numbers coming through. The
goal should be get close to his zero zero as possible,
not have up potentially to fifteen thousand a day come in, which,
if you do the math, is over five million people
a year. Oh, that is a lot. That is a

(46:14):
lot of people. People. That is a lot of people.
Three two, three, five, three eight, twenty four, twenty three
at Chad Benson Show. Is your Twitter tweet at US
text the program. Could we see a strike at the
docks which is something that could be massive and I'm
talking huge.

Speaker 5 (46:35):
Fourteen ports from New England to Texas could shut down
Tuesday at midnight. Up to thirty six could be affected.
Those crucial hubs responsible for nearly thirty five percent of
all US imports and exports. The International Longshoreman's Association demanding
higher hourly wages in their new contract and a ban
on automated cranes, gates.

Speaker 2 (46:56):
And trucks.

Speaker 5 (46:57):
A prolonged strike could mean delayed shipping and higher prices
for Americans on things like clothes, electronics, cars, and food
like canned goods and fresh produce.

Speaker 2 (47:08):
Basically kick Christmas in the grundle. So for every day
they're on strike, it's five million dollars a day out
of the economy. But think about this for a second.
It takes somewhere between three to five days to get
the system back to where it was pre strike. So
ten day strike could be up to thirty to fifty
days of a hot mess. Twenty day strike could be

(47:31):
sixty to one hundred days. A twenty day strike puts
us through Christmas. That is crazy, and that is the
fear that people have when it comes to the strike,
especially small businesses who really rely on things like I
don't know the supply chain working correctly. Oh yeah, three two, three, five,

(47:55):
three eight, twenty four, twenty three at Chad Benson Show,
is your Twitter tweet at is Tech Program. We'll talk
more about this later because it is important that we
talk about it. Also some fun stuff. It's not just
about politics. We've got some other stuff, anti aging stuff

Speaker 1 (49:48):
You're listening to the Chad Benson Show.

Speaker 4 (49:50):
Before Helene even made landfall, before that rain from that
storm even made it into the Carolinas, they were already
getting heavy rain from a frontal boundary that was really
rain soaked. I had plenty of moisture and was already
giving them heavy rain in this area of the Appalachian Mountains.
And so they already saw four or five inches of

(50:10):
rain in this area before Helene even got there. Then
the very next day after they got flooding from that,
then Helene started and gave them two days of heavy rain.

Speaker 2 (50:21):
It is biblical. I think it's the best way to
describe how bad Helene dumped everything. A biblical amounts of rain,
and it is it's ferocious. I mean, we talk about
all the time nature will mess you up. This was
nature just doing what nature does. It's global warming. Everybody
settled down and it wasn't the wind, it was the rain.

(50:43):
And when these things stop over you, that's the terrifying part.
With the rains continue to come over and over and
over again. Got places like Ashville where they're having to
fly in supplies people can't get there. They're setting up
starlinks so people can at least get on their phones
and reach their family members. It is frightening how fast

(51:05):
nature can turn and do something.

Speaker 4 (51:07):
Put it into some perspective. It was the largest storm
that we've seen in America since Ierma in twenty seventeen.
This was four hundred and twenty miles wide wo of
tropical storm force winds, four hundred and twenty miles of that,
and this storm had so much moisture.

Speaker 2 (51:26):
With it, Yeah, tons of it.

Speaker 4 (51:28):
You know.

Speaker 2 (51:28):
We're out here in Nashville, we're doing some work and
one of the things that's crazy is just even here
getting the remnants of them. My kids from Arizona, they've
ever seen rain. It was very exciting for them to
see rain. But it's rain for like four days. It's
been cloudy. They're like, oh my gosh, can you imagine
being in some of these places. They got almost thirty
inches of rain.

Speaker 3 (51:46):
This unprecedented storm dropped from ten to twenty nine inches
of rain across the mountains, causing life threatening floods and landslides.

Speaker 2 (51:57):
Yeah, so Governor right there, So you've got South Carolina
and North Carolina devastated. You have still millions of people
without power in certain places. Some places have a little
bit of power. Three two, three, five, three, eight, twenty
four to twenty three at Chad Benson Show is your
Twitter can tweet at us. Love hearing from every single
one of you. And remember when you text that line there,

(52:18):
you can also leave a voicemail if you want to

at Chad Benson Show. Right here on the Chad Benson Show.
And it's going to be a digout for the next
couple days just to get back to the point where
they're semi functioning. But it's going to take some places
months and months to get back to any way of

(52:42):
normal life. We move from there to the Middle East,
and boy what a weekend?

Speaker 10 (52:47):
Huh.

Speaker 14 (52:47):
Fifteen individuals chi lieutenants below Israla have also been eliminated
in a short period of time. So that can't help
it to have a sort of decapitating, a disruptive, grading
effect on the whole movement.

Speaker 2 (53:02):
So you kill Nazraala, who we wanted, by the way,
for the eighty three bombings in Beirut. You kill him
and then you killed fifteen underneath him, which is good
riddance to bad rubbish, as I like to say. But
it doesn't mean that they're going anywhere. Here's the reality
of it. About half the country supported Hesbloo in some way,
shape or form. He was a spiritual leader as much

(53:23):
as he was a terrorist. And now you're in a
position where they're looking obviously they're hiring, if you will,
for middle management.

Speaker 15 (53:30):
The Isreadi military campaign in Lebanon against Hezbollah is by
no means finished. I mean, these ready officials are saying
that they believe they have significantly degraded Hesbola's ability to
fight medium and long range missiles at Israel. They're conceding
that there is some still some capacity within Hesbolla to
strike at Israel, and they still see Hesbolla as a threat.

Speaker 2 (53:51):
As you should. They're not going anywhere, and that's why
they're going to continue to move in. We're going to
talk more about this throughout the show. But this isn't
over by any means. But now they have five different
fronts opened up. You know, they're the best military in
the world at this point in time. There's no doubt
about that. But that's a lot when you're working with
kind of a little when it comes to manpower three
two three, five four three And Chad Benson Show's your

But Chad Benson.

Speaker 1 (54:19):
Show, Independent Thoughts, Independent life, This is Chad Benson.

Speaker 2 (54:43):
Trump's rhetoric is evil. We must stop him, says hiroic Clinton.

Speaker 28 (54:48):
The press needs a consistent narrative about the danger that
Trump poses, because you know, people may still may still
look at the dangers say I don't care.

Speaker 2 (54:55):
Doesn't you know it doesn't affect me. I'm going to
vote for for X, Y or Z.

Speaker 28 (54:59):
But okay, but these people need to be woken up
given the facts about what he has done is saying
and would do.

Speaker 2 (55:06):
The press that is pro Trump.

Speaker 28 (55:08):
Oftentimes stories are put on digitally that then are picked
up by let's say it, Fox and others, and then
those stories are stories, so the mainstream press reports on them,
and so that story then takes on a life of
its own. There will be concerted efforts to distort and
pervert Kamala Harris, who she is, what she stands for,

(55:32):
what she's done.

Speaker 2 (55:34):
And there'll be stories on the other side that will
distort what Trump has said and done. Not a shocker.
Welcome to the world do we live in. We now
go places for affirmation on information. Nobody's interested in the truth.
They want the truth as they want it. They want
it biased and fed to them, so their belief of
who they are and how they identify is reassured by something,

(55:57):
and they say, okay, good, good, good good. Yeah, that's
what I believe. Both sides distort, both sides lie. How
many times have we seen, Oh my god, Trump says this,
it's over, this is it. And then you go and
you're like, that's not what he said. I mean, the
biggest lie that they've told besides Russia. Let's not forget
for two freaking years the investigation plus plus plus and

(56:20):
they're still throwing it out there. Let's not forget any
of that. Let's forget that for a second, right, let's
just take that off the table. Very fine people on
both sides. Then you listen to the whole thing, You're like,
that's not even what he said. It's not even close
to what he said.

Speaker 29 (56:35):
See.

Speaker 2 (56:35):
The difference is Trump will say something and then the
media runs with it, and then people like they start
to distort it. The media comes with stuff now distorted
based on Trump, and look, I'm not here to protect Trump.
He's a big boy, can do it himself. But let's
stop pretending like we're the only side that has that

(56:56):
done against us. The other side's and bunch of meanies.
They're the ones who do it, not us. There's a
bunch of bs, John Carry and I.

Speaker 9 (57:04):
Think the dislike of and anguish over social media is
just growing and growing and growing, and as part of
our problem, particularly in democracies, in terms of building consensus
around any issue.

Speaker 2 (57:18):
It's really hard to govern today.

Speaker 9 (57:20):
The referees we used to have to determine what's the
fact and what is in fact that kind of been
eviscerated to a certain degree.

Speaker 10 (57:27):
People self select where.

Speaker 9 (57:29):
They go for their news or for their information, and
then you just get into a vicious cycle.

Speaker 2 (57:35):
Who were the referees? Out of curiosity? You know who
the referee should be.

Speaker 30 (57:39):
You.

Speaker 2 (57:41):
You're a big boy, you're a big girl. You're going
to go choose the news. You want to choose. Like
I said, you want affirmation, You no longer want information,
You want your feelings based on a certain subject. If
you're a Trump supporter, you're gonna go to Fox, You're
gonna go to Newsmax, You're going to go to one
of those. If you're a Democrat, you're gonna read New
York Times, the LA Times, basically the rest of modern media.

(58:02):
You're going to go after and look at MSNBC, CNN's
of the world. You're not interested in hearing either side
of anything. You want affirmation, and that includes both sides.
I like information, I want the whole thing. Give it
to me. I'm a big boy. I can take it.
But you know what, even if I only wanted one

(58:24):
side of the argument, I should be able to do that.
I don't need a referee. I'm a grown up. Grown
up should be able to make their own decisions. So
you can see the seeds they're planting about, well we
should do this, or we should do that, or we
should take a little bit of this, or maybe we
should stop people from saying that we can't have that.

(58:46):
We've got to be able to have the free speech
that we have, even if you can't stand it, even
if you hate it. I am all about that, and
that includes when I hear Trump throw rhetorica at about Oh,
I can't believe they're doing this, that and the other. Sorry, brother,
this is what free speech looks like.

Speaker 9 (59:00):
This is it.

Speaker 2 (59:01):
But at the same time, all those people say, well,
he's going to do this, this, and this. He didn't
the first time. He didn't the first time, so now
you think he's going to do it. Of course I
think he's going to do it now because he was
just protesting US settle down.

Speaker 10 (59:17):
Constitution Day was last week.

Speaker 25 (59:19):
It's an actual federal holiday, but no one noticed despite
the fact that it's probably the greatest legal document ever.

Speaker 10 (59:26):
Is it flawed?

Speaker 25 (59:26):
Of course it was written by humans and they were
all white men.

Speaker 10 (59:30):
But how about looking at the actual ideas in it?

Speaker 25 (59:33):
I won't hold my breath for that, because only fourteen
percent of eighth graders are proficient in history now and
only twenty two percent in Civics, which may be why
four and ten gen Zers say the authors of the
Constitution are best described as villains America's founders. They were
the gen Z of their day, and when they were
your age, they started a country.

Speaker 10 (59:55):
What the fuck have you done?

Speaker 2 (59:56):
Amen? Amen? It's the greatest legal document in history, and
we're just talking about what free speech we need to
protect the hell out of that. Why do we have
the Second Amendment so we can hunt and fish? No,
it is so we can protect ourselves from tyranny. And

(01:00:18):
that tyranny that they worried about the most was the
tyranny of our own government.

Speaker 25 (01:00:22):
The Constitution isn't perfect because it wasn't written by Taylor Swift.
And yes, the founders made excruciating compromises. Obviously slavery, but
slavery was a deal breaker for the Southern States, so
there would have been two countries.

Speaker 10 (01:00:37):
And then to end slavery in.

Speaker 25 (01:00:38):
North America it would have involved invading a sovereign nation
instead of having the moral high ground of keeping a
union together. Would that have been better? History is complicated,
and gen Z reasoning is not. They think they're pure,
but they're really just simplistic. They know two things. White
people did some very bad things.

Speaker 10 (01:00:57):
And no, that's it.

Speaker 2 (01:00:58):
That's all. That's all they know. That's it. They don't
know anything other than that white people suck.

Speaker 25 (01:01:02):
The queers for Gaza crowd literally advocating for a government.

Speaker 10 (01:01:06):
That would imprison you or kill you for being queer.

Speaker 25 (01:01:09):
And guess what document allows you to protest and chant hey, hey,
ho ho, followed by something really stupid.

Speaker 2 (01:01:16):
Yeah.

Speaker 25 (01:01:16):
At least America is self corrects, a mechanism for which
was actually written into the Constitution. The citizens of Gaza
cannot assemble in protest of their own government, cannot do
or say what they want, or practice whatever religion they want,
or have a free press.

Speaker 10 (01:01:31):
All rights guaranteed in just our first Amendment.

Speaker 2 (01:01:35):
Which is so freaking amazing. Remember the free speech. Remember,
free speech is not free. Somebody died to give us that.
It's blood soaked. It is an ideal that's out there
that needs to be protected. And as we always say,

(01:01:56):
if one doesn't work see number two. Oh yeah, it's important.

Speaker 10 (01:02:04):
It is.

Speaker 2 (01:02:05):
And that's why I even say when we talk about
you know, social media and all this kind of stuff,
well we need to do this, and we need to
block that, or we need to do this. No, we
don't give people. First of all, I always like to
know where crazy's at. That is always best to know
where crazy's at. Secondly, you're never going to open people's
minds by shutting conversation. If the goal is to get

(01:02:29):
people to have open minds, the more information to better
some of that information is pissed, porn bad. I absolutely
recognize that. But the more information is Nobody says less
information is better, less informt No, No, more information is better. Well,
people get spread lies. People are doing that already, so
why not give them everything?

Speaker 25 (01:02:50):
The irony is and all this is that the world
the Founder's burst, flawed though it may be, provides the
bedrock for everything that makes life good for the very
peopeople who hate them so much. It's so easy to
take for granted individual liberty, a bill of rights, the
rule of law, checks and balances, getting a trial by jury,

(01:03:13):
the peaceful transfer of power, protecting minority rights, and democracy itself.
But those are the things that make our pampered, privileged
Brady live so relatively cushy. No one starves here, even
our poor people are fat.

Speaker 31 (01:05:01):
Serving up talk radio medium, rare and dripping with irony.
It's Chad Benson.

Speaker 22 (01:05:07):
It's an eight millimeter home movie of the JFK motorcade
speeding down Interstate thirty five in Dallas, towed a hospital
after he was shot in November nineteen sixty three. It
sold for over one hundred and thirty seven thousand dollars
our auction in Boston's As the buyer wants to remain anonymous.
The film has been with the family of the man
who took it, Dale Carpenter. It shows Secret Service agent

(01:05:28):
Clint Hill, who famously jumped onto the back of the
limousine as the shots rang out, hovering in a standing
position over the President and First Lady Jacqueline Kennedy.

Speaker 2 (01:05:37):
It's weird. Is it morbid? Or is it history? You know?
I mean it feels a bit of both, because it
is historic that day obviously, and at the same time
it feels a little bit morbid. He iss weird. I mean, look,

(01:05:59):
if I had it, but of course I'd want to
sell it. And the fact that somebody's willing to pay
almost one hundred and fifty grand for it I find
to be fascinating. But how weird is it? How morbid
is it that you own a piece of infamy? I
guess as well as history. I guess a lot of
that is out there, morbid history. And you know, I'm
a person if somebody said, hey, we've got stuff from

(01:06:22):
Vladdy and Paler, I might want to say yes. And
again that is morbid. That's my weirdness, I guess. Speaking
of the holidays and getting something something for the holidays
the kids, what are you get in them?

Speaker 29 (01:06:34):
What will be the hottest toys topping kids? Wishless? This
year we got the scoop from Toy Insider's James Zhon.
Popular pick is Tyle Town. You can build Blue's house
with magnetic pieces and to have the characters spin around
on the action tyle Ki we rug Canudle Ultimate Champion,
The electronic version of a puzzle game made popular on TikTok,
is a must have for kids and adults of all ages,

(01:06:56):
according to odd and some popular classics are also back
from Creole is color Light wand so the Darth Vader
bought for Star Wars fans.

Speaker 2 (01:07:04):
That's interesting. The tiles thing. That's my daughter wants that.
She's a huge fan of Blue, so like that Blue
is her jam, which is and if you've never seen
Blue and your parent you're missing out because Blue is awesome.
There's no wokeness, there's no wackiness. It's just a cartoon
of fun. It's an Australian cartoon.

Speaker 9 (01:07:23):
It is.

Speaker 2 (01:07:24):
It is just great. I love it. It's you know
what the kids end up wanting them at the end
of the day, they want a tablet and they want
to play Roadblocks. You can sit here and talk about
all the other stuff and it's neat, but at the
end of the day, it's like, get me a tablet,
get me some Roadblocks, some Roebucks and let me play
and I'll be totally, absolutely fine. Speaking of games, this

(01:07:47):
is interesting. It's on Politico. You can play it right now.
And it's a political game. I know it's weird. Politics
is games anyways, but this is different.

Speaker 32 (01:07:55):
So you design this online game with a new site
Politico called you beat Campaign Manager. The premise of this
game is your campaign manager, with two months ago, where
do you focus your resources?

Speaker 30 (01:08:06):
Which states and why?

Speaker 32 (01:08:08):
Which groups and why? What was the goal here?

Speaker 30 (01:08:11):
I think the thing is that people only engage with
stuff that they find compelling. So if we wanted to
show them really how the nation was split up and
how the nation behaves, we had to go for a
more gamified approach that would capture their imagination and allow
them to engage with certain choices more deeply.

Speaker 2 (01:08:33):
That's interesting, It's so it's a game, all right, So
we can find out why we're more divided those kind
of things, continue, sir.

Speaker 30 (01:08:40):
And in doing that they would then understand the trade
offs of coalition building better than if we just wrote
an article talking about it, because if you read an article,
it's very passive understanding of things. This is easy to
understand language. It's an easy to play game, but it's
also something that forces you to engage with the material
rather than just getting it through on your phone when

(01:09:01):
you're in bed.

Speaker 32 (01:09:01):
What have you learned about political behavior?

Speaker 17 (01:09:04):
That was like?

Speaker 30 (01:09:04):
Unexpected voters are substantially stranger than most political analysts like
to believe. When I use the word stranger. It means
that to us we have a harder time understanding what
drives them, what drives their motivations, and what drives their choices, which.

Speaker 2 (01:09:21):
Is so true. I mean, you know, informations, we always
talked about information. It's demographics, it's there. They're always looking
for something when it comes to voters, and there's some
voters out there you just never know right that they
choose the way that they choose based on certain things
that you would think, well, I couldn't imagine you picking
somebody like that. I couldn't imagine you going this is

(01:09:44):
the person that I'm choosing. And it's a very interesting
way because I have met people who I think you
are absolutely right of center, and they are left of
center in this race in particular. And I have met
people who I thought there is no chance in hell
that you would ever vote for Donald Trump, and they're like,

(01:10:06):
I'm voting for Donald Trump. I don't want to, but
I feel I don't have a choice, and You're like, wow,
that is a trip. But the game thing is very
interesting because when you gamify stuff, people get more involved,
especially if it is something that is fun, entertaining. And

(01:10:32):
I find that you know, why not politics right, Politics
could be fun and entertaining and gamifying. It would be
huge if done correctly.

Speaker 30 (01:10:40):
It's hard for people to understand why a conservative may
vote for a liberal senator. It's hard for people to
understand why someone who shows up in twenty twenty four
may not have voted in twenty twenty. It's hard for
people to understand why someone who votes in a midterm
election for Democratic candidates up and down the ballot could
potentially just sit out twenty twenty four or choose to

(01:11:01):
back the Republican at the top of the ticket and
Democrats down ballot. To me, the biggest thing that we've
learned in all of this is that all of this
is substantially harder, with a lot more uncertainty than anyone
covering it would have you believe, so true, so true.

Speaker 2 (01:11:16):
The complexity of why somebody votes for somebody. I mean,
you get the obviously, the diehards on both the right
and the left, and they vote blue all the time.
But really what this points out in this is those
people that sway the election, those people that you think
there is no way you would vote this direction or

(01:11:37):
that direction, and then they do, and those are the
independents on both sides, and those swaying of the elections
matters in a major way because those people are really
the only people that Trump and Harris are now courting.
They're not courting the diehards they have those people. They're

(01:11:59):
courting the people that they don't quite understand, and so
they're throwing everything against the wall to see what sticks.
Maybe the game helps three two, three, five, three, eight,
twenty four to twenty three at Chad Benson Show, should Twitter,
your Instagram, all of the other things. Right here on
the Chad Benson Show, we talk a little bit more

(01:12:19):
about the ports. Could we see a strike, What would
that do to the country. It's a much bigger deal
than I think people realize. People aren't paying attention to
the fact that there could be a strike and what
that could potentially do. Obviously, HESBLA is now hiring up
to fifteen people for middle and upper management. Chad, it's
not very nice. People died. Yeah, those people. I don't

(01:12:40):
think any of us really care because they would like
to see us all dead too, So better them than us,
it is the best way to describe that.

Speaker 9 (01:12:46):
One.

Speaker 2 (01:12:47):
We've got some stuff on immigration as well, and you know,
I don't know if you're aware of this right thirty
five days away from an election, so it's big doings
around these parts. We'll talk a bit about that as well.
Reach out across all of our social media at Chad
Benson Show Show, Twitter, your Instagram, all of those.

Speaker 1 (01:13:00):
It is the Chad Benson Show, This is the Chad
Benson Show, Independent Thoughts, Independent life, this is Chad Benson.

Speaker 2 (01:13:33):
Biblical in nature. That's how nasty this I want to
say was a hurricane, but it really turned into a
tropical dumping that was biblical. It was just NonStop rain
throughout the southeast. It was interesting because I'm out here
in the Southeast right now in Nashville here this week,

(01:13:53):
and we're enjoying our time out here. One of the
things that's been very interesting is like I watched the
football games this weekend, lots of college football. So Alabama
was fine, parts of Florida were fine, other parts were
absolutely devastated. North Carolina some okay places, and then parts

(01:14:15):
of it well awful.

Speaker 27 (01:14:18):
It's been days without power, cell service, or even safe
drinking water for so many people here in western North Carolina.
We're in historic Builtmore village, an area that's popular for
dining and shopping here in Ashville, and the floodwaters were
so strong that they were able to carry this commercial
fridge from who knows where, miles and miles of damage.

(01:14:40):
One official calling the devastation biblical.

Speaker 2 (01:14:44):
I think that's the best way to describe it. Biblical
in nature, just ferocious the amount of damage. And this
is we're not talking about days and weeks. We're talking
about in some areas, months for people to have any
remnants of a life they had pre last week.

Speaker 27 (01:15:03):
There are still hundreds of roads that are still closed off,
either because they're flooded or they've been washed away, or
just unsafe in one way or another. And for example,
this treet where we are is also closed as well.
There's so much mud here that it is even unsafe
just to walk on foot.

Speaker 2 (01:15:20):
Yeah, it's just it's crazy. And then you have a
lot of people that you know, I mean, when all
is said and done, the number will change. When in
the nineties right now, as far as people that we
know are dead, but there were a lot of people
that were unaccounted for up until over a thousand state.

Speaker 33 (01:15:35):
They're forced to fly many of the resources out to
that region right now, because the roads there are either ravines,
they've been washed out floodwaters or submerged in mud from
the landslides and the mud slides there. At one point,
more than one thousand people were unaccounted for. That number,
according to Buncom County officials, has gone down to about
six hundred. Much of that is due to the lack

(01:15:56):
of internet power a cell phone service. Many of the
landlines also down.

Speaker 2 (01:16:02):
The one good thing about the Internet is that evil
guy Elon Muski had the Hymn is supplying starlink everywhere,
so they can get it in there and they could
turn it on. People are able to then call out.
But in Asheville they're having to fly supplies in. So
what I mean it's like biblical. I mean, like the

(01:16:22):
town is cut off from the world right now, so
they're flying food and water in. They've got the Internet
set up in certain areas, so people can now call
out and you get a better feel of it and
they'll recover. But this was this wasn't one of those
I mean, everybody saw it coming, but the difference was
it was one two. By that, I mean it was

(01:16:46):
two big punches that came out of nowhere because you
expected one of them, and they were already getting kind
of this deluge. And then it was the second storm,
which was the hurricane that just decided to sit over
everything and dump gobs of water.

Speaker 4 (01:17:05):
Before Helene even made landfall. Before that rain from that
storm even made it into the Carolinas, they were already
getting heavy rain from a frontal boundary that was really
rain soaked. I had plenty of moisture and was already
giving them heavy rain in this area of the Appalachian Mountains,
and so they already saw four five inches of rain

(01:17:26):
in this area before Helene even got there. Then the
very next day, after they got flooding from that, then
Helene started and gave them two days of heavy rain, and.

Speaker 2 (01:17:36):
We got it here in Nashville. It was just steady
for a couple days. Parts of Tennessee got really soaked.
There was a couple reservoirs and dams that they thought
were going to flood and break. Luckily they didn't. But
it was an ugly situation everywhere throughout the Southeast, and

(01:17:58):
it hit just about every state. I mean Georgia. I
was talking to somebody on Friday who is in Georgia,
working and she told me that, you know, her neighborhood,
she was working at her house just like it's just
it's crazy because her neighborhood is okay, but if you
get out of the neighborhood, everything is flooded, like you
can't drive your car anywhere. So it's it hit everything

(01:18:22):
everywhere throughout the Southeast, some in much worse ways. Three two, three, five,
three eight, twenty four to twenty three at Chad Benson
shows Twitter twet ad as texta program they're hiring and
I'm by they, I mean Hesba Lah because their leader,
their dear leader, it's no longer with us. He is
the part of the earth thanks to a bunker buster.

Speaker 13 (01:18:39):
Hassan Ostraullo, the leader of the terrorist army Risbala, was
killed by Israel Defense forces in a precise strike in
Beirut last night while he was in his Bala's central
headquarters commanding more imminent attacks against the people of Israel.

Speaker 2 (01:18:56):
He got his ass blowed up, is what he was saying.
And on top of that, they decided, you know what,
We're going to redo the entire board.

Speaker 14 (01:19:05):
Members here, fifteen individuals chi lieutenants below in israla have
also been eliminated in a short period of time, so
that can't help it to have a sort of decapitating,
a disruptive, degrading effect on the whole movement.

Speaker 2 (01:19:21):
Yeah, a degrading effect. That being said, they're not going anywhere.
That's the thing, right, They're like cockroaches. They're not going anywhere.
They still hate the Jews hate them more now than
anything else. The question is is Iran getting it involved
because their rhetoric is always like We're going to come
get you, and then they don't do anything. They fire
off some missiles that Israel easily picks off, and it's

(01:19:45):
just kind of this posturing. But now you have killed
visitors and some of their leaders in their country. You're
now killing the head of their proxies in their countries.
We've got to put up her shut up, and they're
not going to because they're all talk. That's all Iran

(01:20:07):
is is talk Israel. Israel don't give a crap at
this point in time. And here's the other thing we
need to pay attention to. They're not paying any attention
to us. They're not Biden's out there, yammering man. We've
got to go to seas farst time for seas, first
time for a.

Speaker 30 (01:20:23):
Person's elemnon inevitable, my first cease fire.

Speaker 2 (01:20:28):
Time, first seas fire. They're not talking, you due, they're
not listening. Don't remember that, Remember that, don't He's not listening.
Net Yahoo is going to do what he needs to do.
That's the way he looked at it. We've tried it
your way, We've tried it the world's way. If you
guys think we're the worst and we're Sionist evil sobs,

(01:20:50):
then you know what, We're just gonna go handle the
business and we need to handle We can't live in
perpetual like you know, like a cat that's on high
alert all the time. We can't do that. We've got
to do something else, and we're going to There is
an issue though, because the front is getting bigger.

Speaker 16 (01:21:06):
This is really opening up multiple frinds for the Israeli
military and other security agencies to manage simultaneously. Israel hasn't
really confronted anything like this, going back almost fifty years
to the Young Kapor War in the nineteen sixty seven wards.

Speaker 2 (01:21:24):
It's been a while, it is, and I think it's
going to open up even more and The reason is simple,
because today they just said, hey, you know what, you
guys over there in Yemen, you whoties were coming, but.

Speaker 15 (01:21:35):
Who These have been striking into Israel sporadically as a
show of support for previously for Hamas in Gaza and
the Palestinians there, now for Hezbollah. And I think you
know what the Israelis are now doing is sending a
very clear signal to Tekran, to all of its proxies
to say, if you keep hitting us, will hit you

(01:21:57):
much harder back.

Speaker 2 (01:22:00):
Sometimes the best defense is the best offense. And I
don't for a second think that they're going to pay
any attention to what we have to say anymore. I
think he looks at Biden as an old, feckless man
who's been wrong on just about everything out there, and
feels now that they're going to do what they need
to do, because otherwise they're going to be in the
same position in a couple of years, waiting for a

(01:22:21):
strike and then starting it up all over again. Their
thought is, you know what, guys, we're here, let's just
get it done, and let's do it now.

Speaker 16 (01:22:28):
Has Bala, despite the pounding they have taken over the
past two weeks. Is an incredibly resilient organization and has
tens of thousands of fighters under its command, probably only
have lost about fifteen to twenty percent of its rocket,
missile and drone capability, has a global terrorist attack capability
as well that it is used.

Speaker 2 (01:22:49):
Has all of those things. But right now, pound for pound,
it's hard to find a military anywhere close to what
Israel has. We based on are your size and the
capabilities of our modern battle ready group in particular, our ships,

(01:23:12):
our planes, all the stuff you don't know we have
are the best military. But pound for pound, right like,
if you've got to just go to the battlefield, it's hard.
You're hard to find anybody close to what Israel is.
And they're not going to back down. I think they've

(01:23:32):
gotten to the point now where they realize, Look, everybody
already hates us. We see that, We see how much
they hate us, right like, everything's the Jew's fault, Like
you saw it with all the people walking out the
other day in the UN and cheering they're done. Let's
just get it over and done with. And there are
only allies in the region that are a democracy, and

(01:23:59):
this administration has talked out of both sides of their
mouth and has scolded Israel at times when they defended
themselves because they didn't like the way that they were
defending themselves. You're doing it too hard. I think they're
just screw it a few guys. We're gonna go do
what we need to do. We've had enough, so we'll see.

(01:24:22):
But you start opening up certain amount of fronts, as
we've seen, you get up to the point where you
have too many fronts. Issues come. The one thing is,
you know the hooties. I think it's more of a
warning has blah and a potential ground invasion. That's a
scarier thing because you can open up a front with airstrikes,

(01:24:45):
but going in is a totally different thing. At this
point in time three two, three, five, three eight, twenty

(01:28:40):
That was Golf sixty minutes SNL and Drake Hodgton was
an actor. You'd recognize his face soap star passed away
as well, and that is pretty much what it was
and is of things that were trending three to two,
three five, twenty four, twenty three at Chad Benson Show.

(01:29:02):
Is your Twitter tweet at his text the program right
here on The Chad Benson Show. It's going to be
very interesting the debate tomorrow night. I'm excited about a
vice presidential debate because we get to see, I think,
just two separate people in a real way going at it.
One very academic, the other very awe shucks, folksy. The

(01:29:27):
all folksy guy is is an interesting character, to say
the least, Jim Walls, and I'm curious as to how
this plays itself out tomorrow. I really am in the
way that this goes because these things usually have zero,
zero play on presidential races, but could this one have some?

(01:29:48):
I think so.

Speaker 10 (01:29:49):
Walls is a buffoon. I'm sorry this guy.

Speaker 12 (01:29:51):
He's the only school teacher in America who brags at
none of his students can get into an Ivy League.

Speaker 10 (01:29:55):
School, he said.

Speaker 12 (01:29:56):
One consequential press interaction with our Dana Bash who him
about the fabrications in his own resume, and his answer
was essentially Mito understand words good. I mean, he's a buffoon.
He's he's on a free ride for running under Harris.
He gets very little pressed. They don't let him talk
to the press.

Speaker 10 (01:30:13):
For a reason.

Speaker 12 (01:30:14):
I want one thing out of this debate. I want
jd Vance to go out there and get under his skin.
He has legendary hot, short temper. A lot of governors do,
but he apparently he does. I want jad Vance to
go out there and have him explain why he is
denigrating jd Vance's story small town America ends up making
something better out of his life, which is something we

(01:30:34):
should want for every.

Speaker 2 (01:30:35):
Yeah, this will be very interesting tomorrow night because Jade
Vance has been the attack dog for Trump. Let's see
how this goes three two, three, five, three eight, twenty
four to twenty three at Chat Benson show, he is
your Twitter tweet at his textan program. A lot of
stuff still to get to. More on the hurricane obviously
and the rebuilding. How long that's going to take? Absolutely
devastating throughout the southeast.

Speaker 11 (01:30:54):
This is the Chat Benson shown Chad Benson.

Speaker 1 (01:30:59):
Joe independent thoughts, independent life. This is Chad Benson.

Speaker 10 (01:31:23):
What must that be like?

Speaker 2 (01:31:24):
No.

Speaker 34 (01:31:25):
Look, you know, the stakes of this election are humongous, right,
Donald Trump is not running as a normal candidate. Some
of the reasons why the mainstream media is having such
trouble with this is that he's really running as an autocrat.
And so when you compare these two candidates and use
conventional framing, you see that it elevates him. It elevates
the autocrat, It normalizes a lot of his rhetoric. So

(01:31:47):
I do think that absolutely, you know, there is reason
to be worried. American democracy may very well be on
the ticket here, but she has been very aggressive in
this campaign, and I think that's been I'm really smart.

Speaker 2 (01:32:02):
Oh my god, Molly Chong Fast New York Times. He's
an autocrat. The world's coming to an end. Adolf Hitler
can't stop him. What the hell are you people talking about?
And I'm gonna tell you all out there, who are
Trump supporters? If Kamala Harris wins, we'll still be here
in four years having elections. Oh no, we're not, Yes

(01:32:24):
we are. The fear factor is strong with the groups
on television. I'm here to tamping it down and tell
you guys, don't buy into the bs and there's plenty
of it. No, chet no, No, there's plenty of it.
He is not the Antichrist. He is not going to

(01:32:44):
enslave you. He's not going to steal your soul. He's
not going to do any of those things. Okay, she's
not going to turn this into Cuba, even if she
would like to. Checks and balances aren't going to allow
that to happen. Doesn't mean there won't be a little
pain here and there. Doesn't mean some of you won't
be unhappy with some of the things that they do.

(01:33:05):
I'm just giving you a realistic view at things. One
of the things that we talked about last week. She
has serious issues with men. And if you look at
first of all, men are having serious problems in America,
young men in particular. More young men are living at
home longer, they have less friends, they're lost in a

(01:33:33):
major way. The participation in the workforce is down. Now,
some of that, I want to preface this. Some of
that is the fact that they're not in the typical
workforce because they're hustling. They're entrepreneurial, they're piecemealing things together.
They don't have a nine to five job. They sell

(01:33:54):
stuff on eBay, they trade you know, baseball cards, whatever
it is. They've got other things going on. It's not
that they're not employed and not working, they're just not
doing the typical. But there's too much struggle out there
right now for young men. It's not set up right.
Young men feel like they're they've been abandoned. If you

(01:34:14):
go to school, right, so you're in school and teachers
tell me this all the time, it's not set up
for men. It's not it's not up set up for
little boys. It's not upset. It's set up now as
a as a you know, to to help little girls
far more than his little boys. And I've got a youngster.
He's in school, it's fourteen, and it's it's you know,

(01:34:38):
it's evident that you know that the first time that
the kid makes too much noise, little boy's like, let's
get them drugged up.

Speaker 17 (01:34:45):
You know.

Speaker 2 (01:34:45):
It is. It's a real struggle out there. And when
you get to college, you just have to see the
college graduates women outpace the men big time, which is
sad because we need strong workforce men and women. So
there's a lot of that going on right now when

(01:35:06):
it comes to men and women. Conservative liberal, and then
you've got the liberals out there trying to define new masculinity,
new masculinity. This is again Moly Jong Fast.

Speaker 34 (01:35:18):
I just want to get back to this idea of
masculinity for one second. I do think that Democrats have
been trying to offer an alternative vision to this very
sort of destructive masculinity that we're seeing on the right
being advertised. And an example of that is Walls, right. Yeah,
Tim Walls has been he was in a Michigan football game.

(01:35:39):
He's talking to young men, he's trying to make the case.
And also Doug Right, I mean, you know, the second
gentleman is also you know, start trying to make a
case for supporting your wife and how you can be
a masculine guy. So I do think there are inroads.
It is certainly not as far along as Republicans in
their sort of embrace of masculinity.

Speaker 2 (01:36:00):
Because you've told men for the last umpteen years that
they suck. You've told men for the last umpteen years,
especially white males, that you guys are the root of
all evil. You've told men for god knows how long.
Now it's a women's world, girl boss, and you should
sit back and shut up and somewhere along the line,
and if you talk to old feminists, they'll say it

(01:36:20):
was never about making women better and by doing so,
stepping on men. But it became that and this new
definition of masculinity. I'm sorry. The reason that you're losing
out is because there hasn't been a definition of masculinity.
So what happens is you get all of these people
and Jimmy Carr, the great comedian, saw him say something
the other day I thought was brilliant. He asked, it

(01:36:43):
shows he likes to win. People hackle or scream stuff
out and or tweet at him, and he'll put it
up on the board. He'll last, you know, talk about
it if you know anything. But Jimmy Carr, he sells
out arenas. I mean, he's like, arguably one of the
top five comics on the planet. And one of the
things they said, what do you think about Andrew Tate?
He says, you know what andreitate is, He's what fourteen
year old boys think somebody should be a man is,

(01:37:09):
Like he's cose playing as a man. Well, when you
decide to crush masculinity as being evil and bad and toxic,
what happens. People who want to take advantage of the
opportunity in Charlatan's who push back do so in such

(01:37:32):
a way that it's over the top. And in being
over the top, though, people who are looking for some
form of masculinity will gravitate towards that because that's all
they have and that's not good. It's not and their
definition of I support the hell out of my wife.
She knew whatever she wants to do. I'm one hundred

(01:37:52):
percent behind her, will support her every single day. But
am I gonna be one these guys that are like
bot sock and girls?

Speaker 9 (01:38:02):
Are you?

Speaker 2 (01:38:03):
I'm raising girls and I tell them life's a bitch.
Sometimes you gotta be tough, and you've got to understand
that things aren't always gonna be perfect and are always
going to go your way, and that you can't play
the victim all the time. You can be supportive and

(01:38:23):
masculine at the same time. And the reason she's losing
is because their version of masculinity is anything but masculine.
And Tim Walls, it's funny. Did you see him at
the football game with Beto o'rouric. Oh my god, what
a joke. And then you go and you look over
and you see Trump. He's at the Alabama Georgia game.

(01:38:44):
Freaking best game, right, just freaking incredible places going nuts.
So do I think he's mister masculine? No? Because why
because he liked football, because he coached football. And that's like,
this is that you could support you It's ridiculous, But

(01:39:04):
this is they're trying to redefine and this is what
they do. So what the left does. Everybody always wants
to redefine something. And let me tell you something. Go
ask a woman, do you want supersensitive, non toxic masculinity
or do you want a guy who's masculine and having
an understandab what that masculinity can do and the power

(01:39:27):
that comes with it. And because of that shows the restraint, right,
what real men do? Three two, three, five, three eight,
twenty four to twenty three at Chad Benson Show, to Twitter,
your Instagram, all of the other things. To move from
there to fran Leeblowitz wants to get rid of the
Supreme Court.

Speaker 35 (01:39:42):
Democrats had like elected people. The Supreme Court is completely.

Speaker 2 (01:39:47):
His, you know, I mean, it's so.

Speaker 35 (01:39:50):
Disgraceful this court that it shouldn't even be allowed to
be called the Supreme Court. It's not even a court.
It's only a court in the sense that the Court
of the the sixteenth was a court. You know, basically,
it's a harem. Okay, it's a harem. It's Trump's harem.

Speaker 10 (01:40:06):
Wow.

Speaker 2 (01:40:07):
If you go and look at the Supreme Court rulings,
a vast majority of them all ruled the same way.
It is anything but a Trump Supreme Court. You didn't
like a couple of the rulings, so you said it
was out of control. And the left has gone through
and damaged the Supreme Court with this crazy rhetoric of
it's an evil court, it's a rogue court, it's all

(01:40:30):
the bad things court. It's anything but that. You don't
like the rulings on a few things, so therefore it
is a rogue court. But the thought process that somehow
Trump it's all Trump's people. It's not all Trump's people.
By the way, he got three on there, And I said,
his biggest accomplishment when it happened is he got three

(01:40:51):
people on the Supreme Court. That's a massive accomplishment. More
from fran Leboitz.

Speaker 35 (01:40:57):
But can you imagine how to go to work every day?
You have to go to work with Aldo, with Kavanaugh.
You know it must be horrible. So what Biden should do?
Not that you asked, but when they passed that law
of the sport passed that ruling, you know where they said,
you're not the president, you're the king, which is what
that ruling is. You can do whatever you want. You
can never be, you know, held responsible. I thought, you know,

(01:41:18):
Biden's still the president. Biden should dissolve the Supreme Court.

Speaker 2 (01:41:21):
Somebody better tell Biden he's the president and that's not
what the law, what they ruled on, they ruled on.
As a president, you have certain immunities in the discharging
of your duty. Take, for instance, Barack Obama. He killed
an American citizen via drone without trial, without any due process.

(01:41:46):
Should he be held accountable for murder? Oh? Well, I
don't know. Certain things that should have been answered a
long time ago when it came to discharging of the
presidential duties and what you are and aren't potentially culpable
for things that you do personally, even if you're president,

(01:42:07):
those things can be charged. But in the discharging of
your duties as president, certain things will give you'll have
immunity for Oh, oh, and go ahead. By the way,
I would love it if you decided today get rid
of the Supreme Court. What do you think would happen
if they did that? The left would cheer a little bit,

(01:42:31):
some would be like, ugh, that's not a good thing
to do, and then the right and the center, the
independence would go well, we can't have this. And who
do you think would get the votes? We have a
very reactionary society, and when we see things start to
get a little wonky and start to go in another direction,

(01:42:52):
we will pivot quick three two, three, five, three, eight,
twenty four to twenty three at Chidminton shows your Twitter,
your Instagram, all of the other things. We're wrapping up

(01:44:22):
can think of out there. We may even have a

If you miss any show, grab the podcast. It is
the Chad Benson Show.

Speaker 20 (01:44:40):
Hashtag me too, hashtag immigration reforms, hashtag help. I'm trapped
in a hashtag factory and I can't get out the
Chat Benson Show.

Speaker 5 (01:44:48):
The US Maritime Alliance, representing the shippers and ports, says
it's committed to negotiating, but claims the union is not
bargaining in good faith. The Biden administration urging both side
to negotiate fairly and quickly.

Speaker 2 (01:45:02):
Yeah, why is that? Because this would be massive. It
is the holiday season. They are close to going on strike,
and by they I mean dock workers, and that could
be a kick in the grundle.

Speaker 5 (01:45:14):
Fourteen ports from New England to Texas could shut down
Tuesday at midnight. Up to thirty six could be affected.
Those crucial hobs responsible for nearly thirty five percent of
all US imports and exports. The International Longshoreman's Association demanding
higher hourly wages in their new contract and a ban
on automated cranes, gates, and trucks. A prolonged strike could

(01:45:37):
mean delayed shipping and higher prices for Americans on things
like clothes, electronics, cars, and food like canned goods and
fresh produce.

Speaker 2 (01:45:47):
As well as Christmas stuff. So if you're a small business,
you count on that supply chain being up and running.
And after all the things we've gone through of last
several years, the fact that this could happen at this
time is bad. I'll just give you a snapshot. Five
billion dollars a day lost to the economy for every
one day it is broken, and by that I mean

(01:46:10):
the supply chain like this, it takes three to five
days to get it back to where it was. So
when you start thinking about the numbers, ten days could
potentially be up to fifty days, twenty days potentially is
up to one hundred days. Well, well pass Christmas at
that point in time. So as of midnight tonight, this

(01:46:31):
could get ugly, Yeah, very ugly.

Speaker 10 (01:46:38):
His name.

Speaker 2 (01:46:41):
Benjamin nett Yahu speaking today directly to the Iranian people.

Speaker 36 (01:46:45):
Every day their puppets are eliminated as muhammadev as Noosuela.

Speaker 10 (01:46:53):
There is nowhere in the Middle East Israel cannot reach.

Speaker 36 (01:46:56):
There's nowhere we will not go to protect our people
and protect our country.

Speaker 2 (01:47:02):
And he means it, and he's straightforward talking to them. Hey,
people pay attention to your regime, don't care.

Speaker 36 (01:47:08):
The vast majority of Iranians know their regime doesn't care
a whit about them.

Speaker 10 (01:47:14):
If it did care, if it cared.

Speaker 36 (01:47:16):
About you, it will stop wasting billions of dollars on
feudal wars across the Middle East. It would start.

Speaker 10 (01:47:23):
Improving your lives.

Speaker 2 (01:47:26):
But it doesn't.

Speaker 17 (01:47:26):
And we know that.

Speaker 36 (01:47:27):
I know you don't support the rapists and murderers of
Hamas and Krisbala, but your leaders do you deserve more
the people? If i Wan should know Israel stands with you,
may we together know a future of prosperity and peace.

Speaker 2 (01:47:45):
I wonder if they're listening, because again, I think there's
a lot of people out there who quietly, maybe not
a fan of Israel, but believe a little bit of
what he's saying. But you're going up against and again,
a death cult that doesn't have the same kind of
influence on its people that say North Korea has, but

(01:48:06):
still has influence on its people.

Speaker 36 (01:48:08):
There are tens of millions of good and decent people
with thousands of years of history behind them and a
brilliant future ahead of them. Don't let a small group
of fanatic thear Crafts crush you hopes.

Speaker 2 (01:48:21):
And your dreams, or what what are you gonna do?

Speaker 36 (01:48:23):
Every day you see a regime that subjugates, you make
fiery speeches about defending Lebanon, defending Gaza. Yet every day
that regime plunges our region deeper into darkness and deeper
into war.

Speaker 9 (01:48:39):
I like it.

Speaker 2 (01:48:39):
I don't think it's gonna do anything, but I like it.
I like what he did there three two, three, five,
three eight, twenty four, twenty three at Chad Benson's show.
That is your Twitter, your Instagram and all of the
other things right here on the Chad Benson Show. Solid

(01:49:00):
on show to kick off the week Tomorrow night debate,
but this time it's the vice presidential side of things.
Can Tim Walls do anything magical? I don't think so.
I think jd Vance has more to gain and more
to lose. If there was a seriousness about this that
