• Do you have ambition?

Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:02):
Well, what we need is more common sense.

Speaker 2 (00:07):
The.

Speaker 3 (00:10):
Breaking down the world's nonsense about power.

Speaker 1 (00:12):
American common sense.

Speaker 3 (00:13):
Will see us through with the common sense of Houston.
I'm just pro common sense for Houston. From Houston. This
is the Jimmy Barrett Show, brought to you by viewind
dot Com.

Speaker 4 (00:29):
Now here's Jimmy Barrett. All right, welcome to our Monday show. Everybody,
good to have you out. There's let's talk about COVID.
What COVID? What do you mean COVID? Well, something's going on.
I'm just I'm convinced about this that there is just

(00:49):
a lot of money up for grabs as it relates
to the COVID vaccine, and big pharma must be putting
a lot of pressure on pharmacies, on different medical organizations.
I just feel like there must be a lot of
pressure being put on these people in order to keep

(01:10):
recommending that you get the COVID vaccine. And I don't
think a lot of people are getting the COVID vaccine.
The latest one to come out and recommend the COVID
vaccine and to endorse the COVID vaccine is the American
College of Obstetrics and Gynecology recommending that pregnant women get

(01:30):
the vaccine and that children get the vaccine. Now, I
don't knowing that young women are particularly generally healthy those
of child bearing years, I'm not quite sure why they
want to recommend you get this vaccination. But there must
be a lot of money up for grabs on this.

(01:52):
You know where I stand on this stuff. I do
not recommend many of the vaccinations that the CDC would
recommend it this particular point, although the CDC is backing
off on a lot of these things thanks to Robert F.
Kennedy Junior as the new Health and Human Services Secretary.
But anyway, doctor Mark Siegel, he's a Fox medical expert

(02:15):
yesterday on this recommendation from the gnecological and obstetric people,
those are the ones who deliver the babies. Of course,
that women, pregnant women get this vaccine.

Speaker 1 (02:25):
It doesn't surprise me.

Speaker 5 (02:27):
And they're not always necessarily looking at the exact same
studies John, or interpreting them the same way. I think
the point that the American American College of Obstetric and
Gynecology is trying to make is that during pregnancy it's
a state of semi immunal compromise, and a lot of
pregnant women have gotten sick from COVID and been hospitalized,

(02:50):
and young children who have pre existing conditions, there's been
issues with them being hospitalized over two thousand over the
course of the pandemic and since with pre existing conditions
mostly and I think they're looking to see that these
remain as tools that can be used.

Speaker 1 (03:07):
You know, there's a.

Speaker 5 (03:07):
Study out of McGill in Canada that the two sides
interpreted differently. Maha Kennedy's group interpreted as premature birth was
more likely, but the authors Adam McGill, said no, that's
because of other factors.

Speaker 1 (03:22):
Not the vaccine.

Speaker 5 (03:24):
This could be seen as a healthy debate if it
leads to more study.

Speaker 1 (03:28):
But the idea of.

Speaker 5 (03:29):
The question of whether the mRNA vaccine remains as a
tool for COVID, especially if COVID comes back, is important,
and my view is that it is a useful tool.

Speaker 1 (03:40):
But I also wonder about another.

Speaker 5 (03:42):
Point that Kennedy has made where I agree with him totally,
which is that big pharma plays a role here at
with deciding what vaccines are prominent.

Speaker 1 (03:50):
I wrote an article in the Wall Street Journal a couple.

Speaker 5 (03:52):
Of years ago about nova vacs, which is a lot
like the shingles vaccine, and that got sidelined because of
all the attention paid here.

Speaker 1 (03:59):
And there are other newer vaccines.

Speaker 5 (04:01):
And older technology that also may be useful. The advantage
of mRNA technology is that it can be created quickly
if there's an emerging pathogen, if there's.

Speaker 1 (04:11):
Another pandemic that came along.

Speaker 5 (04:13):
That's a very important use, as is cancer, the use
for cancer vaccines.

Speaker 1 (04:18):
So all of this could be a healthy debate.

Speaker 5 (04:20):
It shouldn't be, in my opinion, Litigenous, it should be
a debate.

Speaker 6 (04:24):
Okay, he's trying to find that, you know, right down
the middle. He's trying to thread that sucker right down
the middle, which is easier said than done. I think,
from my own experience with the COVID vaccine, I think
I've had enough. I certainly not getting it, don't get
the flu shot. I prefer to concentrate on taking a
lot of vitamins. I don't know about you, but the

(04:45):
one good thing that at least for me came out
of COVID is I really up my vitamin regimen. I
really started making sure I had enough vitamin B, vitamin C,
vitamin D, and I made sure I started taking you know,
magnesium and some of these other minerals that are very
very good for you and good for your immune system,

(05:06):
and knock on wood, I haven't even really I had
one very very mild code cold burdening since then since
I started taking all this stuff. It only lasted for
a couple of days. So I feel like I've been
healthier as a result of doing that. I would rather
do some more natural things to build up my immune

(05:28):
system than to take this COVID vaccine shot and think
that it's going to possibly be even if it would work,
that it would possibly be up to date for whatever
variant is out there right now. All right, So that's
one thing. Here's another thing we can run past here.
I like this story. I may even do this story.

(05:49):
You're gonna get this story first. I might do this
one tomorrow and kat r h on the Morning Show,
but we're doing it first here on AM nine fifty KPRC.
Five fashion rules that could get you kicked out of
Disney Parks. Now, the thing I find interesting about this
is that there are very very few places that bother

(06:11):
to enforce any sort of dress code, even fine restaurants,
very rarely. Even the ones that post a sign that
says you can't wear this, that or the other generally
is very bad and enforcing it. But these are the
five don'ts if you go to a Disney park. Number
one costumes for adults. Kids under twelve can dress like

(06:35):
their favorite princes or pirate, but if you're grown up,
you're out of luck. Disney wants the official characters of
the parks to be the only ones in costume in
order to preserve the magic for the children. I think
it's better than that. Don't you think if there was
like a fifty year old guy dressed up like Peter Pan,
would you be creeped out by that? I would go, oh,

(06:58):
oh yeah, I don't think I want to get anywhere
near this dude. Outfits with long trains or dragging fabric,
floor length gowns, giant capes, or anything that could trip
you or somebody else in the crowd. Safety concerned, especially
on rides. Plus a million people will step on it.

(07:18):
Revealing a tire. Here's here's here's the rules that I
had question whether or not they really get enforced revealing
a tire. Bikinis crop tops that mimic swim wear or
overly skippy clothing or off limits shoes are required to
be on at all times. Who would go barefoot through
through a park attended by thousands of people where there's

(07:38):
things that people are dropping on the on the walkway
that could cut your feet anytime? H Yeah? Can we
all agree that swimsuits are inappropriate? Crop tops? Could we
could we get by the way the airlines to make
the same thing. I mean, it is amazing to me
what people wear to fly now. Of course, I'm I'm
from a generation that you know, flying was a big deal,

(08:02):
and you know, I'm not old enough to be part
of that. You have to dress up the fly generation.
But that's how what people used to do. Flying was
considered to be a big deal. So you would you
dress up, you wear something good, you'd wear something nice.
You wouldn't be wearing your pajamas. I've seen people get
on board and you know, sweatpants obviously, but I've seen people,

(08:22):
not just kids, adults get on wearing their pajamas. How
do you do that? I see people go to the
store like that. How do you go to the store
wearing your pjs with your hair and curlers? Just it's
just amazing to me. Anyway, Scary or offensive clothing is

(08:43):
not allowed, either anything that might frighten children or clash
with Disney's family oriented vibe. Oh, leave the ACDC shirt
at home. Okay.

Speaker 1 (08:52):
Offensive tattoos.

Speaker 6 (08:53):
If you have ink that could be seen as vulgar
or inappropriate, you need to cover it up before you
attend the park. And if you face tattoos and you
can't cover it up, then I guess they don't want
you there. For adults who still want to channel the
favorite character, they have something called Disney Bound the bens
the rules a bit is where fans use regular clothing
to mimic characters look with the same color palettes, accessories,

(09:14):
and hair stuffs. Who needs to do that? Come on,
you're an adult. You're an adult. That stuff is for kids.
Leave the kids stuff to the kids, all right. Let
the adults be the adults, all right? Quick little break yep,
he said, time for break. I think it is. We'll
take a quick little break back with more in a moment.
Jimmy Barrett Show AM nine f KPRC. Well, we got

(09:52):
on the topic of cracker barrel again today on our
morning show, and katrh and I feel compelled to tell
you here in the afternoon the same thing I said
this morning. I have changed my mind on Cracker Barrel.
I really really wanted I guess I wanted to think,
in this day where everybody's trying to vanquish woke, and

(10:13):
that woke doesn't seem to exist as much as it did,
and where corporations have backed off from woke, I was
making the assumption that what wrongfully, and I've fully been
I believe I was wrong about this. I was making
the assumption that what they were trying to do with
Cracker Barrell had less to do with being woke and
more to do with just trying to reinvigorate the business.

(10:36):
But now that I found out that one of their
boarder directors, at least one of their boarder director members
comes from a DEI background, Now that i've I've actually,
you know, heard that the CEO's quoted as saying, you
know about decuntrifying, make it less less less a Southern
thing at Cracker Barrel. You know that it's it's it's

(11:00):
just the addition of all the other evidence would tell
me that it really has a lot to do with
woke or the very least. It has a lot to
do with the corporation that is just making bad decisions,
doesn't care about their base, is making bad decisions. We
saw the same thing with bud Light, and now we're

(11:23):
seeing the same thing with Cracker Barrel. But again, you
would have thought lessons would have been learned by now.
And maybe they don't think that they're going as far
as bud Light did, right they after all, they kept
that we didn't change the name. It still Cracker Barrel.
We didn't get rid of the barrel. We're just trying
to brighten the stores up. But I've also seen a
lot of postings from employees at Cracker Barrel, and the

(11:46):
employees think that listen, you guys are horrible. You know,
you let staff go. We don't have enough help. You know,
people are having to work harder. You know, they're not
getting support from the company. They're not they're not listening
to what the employees are saying about the things are
being done. They just aren't working. So it's just I

(12:06):
think it's just it's a combination of a bad corporate
rebrand and it doesn't seem to be working that well
for him.

Speaker 1 (12:14):
Here.

Speaker 6 (12:15):
Greg Gutfield in this panel on Friday night, we're discussing it.
Here's a little bit of that action.

Speaker 7 (12:20):
Cracker Barrel rebrand tanks, stock digg and Cracker Barrel where
you had your wedding reception. Their stock has plummeted twelve
percent since they updated their logo, got rid.

Speaker 1 (12:34):
Of the man on the barrel sign.

Speaker 7 (12:37):
And they meanwhile, they still have a website dedicated to DEI,
which is hilarious.

Speaker 6 (12:43):
What's your take on all of this?

Speaker 1 (12:45):
Yeah, thanks for coming to me on this.

Speaker 2 (12:48):
They spent seven hundred million dollars and hired three marketing
firms and never thought to take the word cracker.

Speaker 1 (12:57):
Out of the name.

Speaker 2 (12:59):
Of them restaurant chain. If we're going to talk all
I'm the last fried chicken I ate was made by
my grandmother and she died in ninety one. So I'm
not exactly the authority on this restaurant chain. But if
you want me to be the authority on all things Southern,
here it is pickup truck FOD Southern victuals. Make it,

(13:23):
don't buy it, mess buy it.

Speaker 8 (13:25):
Don't make it so true true the more you know America.

Speaker 7 (13:39):
So, Paul, there's this when you go into Cracker Barrow,
They have this little peg game and everybody plays it,
and when you left three pegs on, they would call
it dumb, and those who left four would be called
an egg no ramus like whatever.

Speaker 1 (13:57):
So they updated it.

Speaker 7 (13:59):
So now if you if you know three or more,
it says like no reason to be embarrassed.

Speaker 1 (14:03):
Try again.

Speaker 7 (14:08):
I don't really care about this, but again, I go
back to this point that corporations can do this stuff
because they can afford to, like whether it's Nike or Apple,
they can do this this DEI woke sup because you know,
they'd rather just spend a couple a seven hundred million
on both then have to deal with angry tweets. Meanwhile,

(14:28):
smaller companies, individuals, it trickles down to them and they
get blamed if they aren't like you know, making you know,
specialized cupcakes for non binary trans albinos.

Speaker 9 (14:41):
No, you're right, I mean these things look really great
in the CEO boardroom. Yes, right, Like that's I mean,
what's next, Like Dylan mulvany is gonna be chirning butter on.

Speaker 1 (14:52):
The logo here? I mean, as I was calling of you,
because there's.

Speaker 9 (14:56):
Very much analogizes to life situation and They're gonna be
an empty barrel if they keep this nonsense.

Speaker 6 (15:02):
So yeah, well, like I said, I was trying really
hard to think the best of this that really didn't
have anything to do with woke policies, and just you know,
if just another corporation making a stupid rebranding move. And
I started thinking, well, you know, the rebranding things had
to work for somebody, right, Apple kind of did a

(15:24):
rebrand in the early nineties that worked for them. There
are companies that have been successful. So I was asking
the listeners this morning on katrh if they could think
of an example of either a company that rebranded and
they started to patronize them again and they weren't before,
or a company that rebranded and they stopped patronizing them.
And we've got a few on.

Speaker 1 (15:45):
This House of Pancakes.

Speaker 6 (15:48):
Then everybody just shortened it to I Hop and they
embraced it, and now all their logos say Hi Hop.
And what you know, if you know the history by
the way of International House of Pancakes, if you have
you ever gone to it, I Hop when it was
the International House of Pancakes, when they had the full
name up there. The original building was kind of like

(16:08):
a Swiss shellet looking thing, and they had, I mean,
I'm trying to remember how many different kinds of pancakes
they had, pancakes from all over the world, all these
different kinds of pancakes. And basically what I Hop did
is they shortened the name. And when they shortened the name,
they also rebranded their menu and became more of a

(16:31):
full service breakfast place. It wasn't just about the pancakes anymore.
It was about just breakfast, and that seemed to work
for them. I don't know, you know how successful they
are now compared to what they were. I've had a
lot of mixed results going on hops. I've been to
some eye hops that are awesome, and then I've been
to a few eye ops that are just really it's
like anything else. If they're not very well run, then

(16:52):
they're not very good. And I've kind of batting fifty
to fifty on eye ops that I've been to as
far as them being good at not being particularly good.

Speaker 10 (17:01):
Who else Good morning, Oh, this is Henry from Spring
and He'll no, Sidney Sweeney would not change my mind
about drinking by light. They screwed the pooch on that
and deserve what they got.

Speaker 1 (17:16):
Y'all have a great day. Hey, this is Joe and Beeton.
Absolutely love Sidney Sweeney.

Speaker 10 (17:23):
But my last name's Miller, and I'm originally from Milwaukee.
I don't drink Budweiser.

Speaker 1 (17:29):
Jimmy Barrett. This mark from Cyprus. I didn't like bud
Light before they went woke. Yeah, Stavid and Oakridge. When
a company goes woke, they're like the spouse that cheats
on you. There's no going back.

Speaker 6 (17:42):
Okay, don't love That was the other thing I was
asking about here, because there's a rumor that Sidney Sweeney
is going to be a spokesperson for bud Light. That
bud Light sees what happened, what she was able to
do for American Eagle in the anti woke movement, and
they want to hire her to be their spokesperson. But

(18:05):
first of all, I don't think it'd be a very
smart thing for her to do to do that, And
second of all, I don't know that that would work anyway.
All right, but little break, we are back with Morning
Moment Jimmy Barrett show. You're on a nine fifty KPRC.

(18:31):
I don't we want to start this next segment off
with talking about ambition, ambition and hard work and what
you're willing to do in order to make a lot
of money maybe be rich. And I had a guest
on play the interview for you here in just second,

(18:51):
We had a guest on our morning show on KATRH.
His name is EML Barr email. Bar is twenty two
years old. He has like several different companies that he
has started and owns and are worth about a total
twenty million dollars. This is at twenty two. I don't
know what you were doing at twenty two, but I
certainly did not have two companies worth twenty million dollars,

(19:15):
so that makes them a little unusual to begin with.
Number one, but he said his big advice was you
can't expect to socialize and to be a success at
least not at least not in the beginning. Now when
you're getting started, there's not there's not enough hours that
you can work. You have to you have to be
willing to work long, hard hours and to give up

(19:38):
your social life in order to be able to be successful.
And and the reason why I think this is important
is number one. You know, for most people anyway, there
are very few people out there that are making you know,
six figures, six figure pard me salaries, being the social
influencers and you know, just just you know, hanging out
all day long, you know, doing whatever it is that

(20:00):
they do, and just all of a sudden, the money
magically appears for most people if you want to be
a billionaire, which is what this guy wants to be.
He wants to be a billionaire. That's the goal he's
set for himself. But to be a billionaire, he feels like, hey,
I've had to give up some my social life. I've
had to give up you know, sleeping eight or ten hours.

(20:23):
You can't do that and become a billionaire. So I
thought that was a very interesting attitude. I think he's unusual,
I really do. I don't think he thinks he's unusual,
but I think he is. Again, his name is Emil Barb.
We talked to him earlier today on our morning show
in KTRH. At twenty two years old. He's an entrepreneur
that has two companies worth over twenty million dollars. How

(20:43):
did you do it a mil? Well, here's the thing.

Speaker 11 (20:47):
It was very hard to be perfectly honest with you,
And I think that that's okay. We live in the
richest country in the world with the highest ever historical
income for capita. So what I argued in my off
ed was that in today's economy, it's actually completely possible
to reach financial freedom, even as early as in your

(21:09):
early twenties. But you can't do it without being prepared
to make extreme sacrifices.

Speaker 6 (21:14):
Right, But you're making sacrifices for a limited amount of
time as long as you're building these companies. Once those
companies become the net worth that they are, if you
want to retire, if you want to if you want
to have your social life, if you want to go
off on vacation a whole bunch of places, then you
can just sell your company.

Speaker 11 (21:32):
Right Yeah, I call it a front loading success. If
you can save up ten million dollars by the time
you're twenty five, due to compounding interest, you will retire
a billionaire. If you can even save up a million
dollars by the time that you're twenty five, or half
a million dollars, you're still set to retire with hundreds
of millions of dollars by the time you're sixty five.
As long as you don't touch that principle. So the

(21:54):
idea is that to make these sort of extreme sacrifices
for four to five years while you're young, before you
have to before you have to worry about potentially the
rent bill, and really just focus on creating as much
financial independence as possible, because time is actually one of
your greatest superpowers when it comes to making money.

Speaker 6 (22:11):
You strike me as being a whole lot more mature
than your average twenty two year old. Where did you
develop that maturity? Where did these ideas come from? I
don't think that's necessarily true.

Speaker 11 (22:22):
I think it's that through the sacrifices of having to
build a business. I mean, Elon Musk slept on factory floors,
you know, Bezos slipped off a dollar day in his twenties.
I think that I had to make similar decisions to
build my business, and then ultimately, you know, having to
manage anywhere from I think at our peak it was
thirty or forty employees at the same time and make
difficult decisions just makes me seem perhaps a little bit

(22:43):
more dated than your typical college student.

Speaker 6 (22:47):
But you know, there's not a lot of Jeff Bezos
in the world. There's not a lot of Elon Musk
in the world. There's not a lot of views in
the world. Your average twenty two year old is out
there having a good time, you know, dayton going to parties,
you know, hanging at the frat house, you know, sleep
in ten hours a day. They don't have the ambition
you obviously have.

Speaker 11 (23:07):
I think a lot of people actually can do it.
Young people have so many superpowers, like being able to
natively use technology in AI, but often actually, I think
it's our generation's obsession with mental health and work life
balance holding us back. So I think that working hard
should be celebrated, you know, you're being a productive member

(23:27):
of society, rather than demonized. On leave that to the
social media comments.

Speaker 6 (23:32):
What are your goals going forward? How long do you
want to keep doing what you're doing? How much? How
much wealth are you looking to accumulate, how many companies
are you looking to start?

Speaker 11 (23:40):
Well, I'd like to become a billionaire by thirty, so
I've got a little bit of time left to go.
And then really I want to focus on something I
called de extinction, which is this idea that you know
you're going to tell your grandkids about animals like polar
bears and elephants the way we talk about unicorns and
dragons today. Though I don't necessarily plan on stopping anytime soon,
but I think the met is that I could, and

(24:01):
anyone can really buckle down and work really hard for
the next three, four or five years and perhaps not
develop an equivalent, but really developed the sense of financial freedom,
regardless of age or where they're out in their lives.

Speaker 1 (24:14):
Do you have any friends.

Speaker 6 (24:15):
Do you worry about having friends with you?

Speaker 11 (24:17):
Okay, no, I've actually made a lot of great friends.
I think through work, and then I think through shared
sort of passionate missions. So I can't say they've made
too many friends at sports bars. But I do have
friends that are other entrepreneurs building interesting things, or other
people passionate about some of the nonprofits and passionate about
So it's a different type of friendship. And I say
it's intergenerational. I have friends that are, you know, eighteen,

(24:40):
and I have friends that are in their fifties. But
I actually, funny enough, find myself with a lot more
friends than I thought I would, especially when I was
building my companies and you know, sleeping three and a
half hours a night and not seeing anyone but my laptop.

Speaker 6 (24:56):
You know, you got a billion dollars, you're thirty years old.
You could buy a lot of friends it some really
nice looking girlfriends. That's fascinating to me. Though he wants
to be a billionaire by the time he's thirty, he's
got eight more years to get it done. He's twenty two,

(25:18):
he's barely out of college. That's amazing, and I think,
I'm sorry. I still think he's different. He doesn't think
he's that different from anybody else. I disagree. I disagree.
There are not a lot of people in his age
range that are willing to work that hard. I should
have asked him where he got his work ethic from.
What is it about being a billionaire that appeals to you?

(25:39):
What is wellous other than the obvious of having a
ton of money, not being relied on anybody else for
your money. I guess he's just somebody who wants to
be financially independent. He has a passion, it sounds like,
for nonprofits, and based on his comment about polar bears,
polar bears and unicorns, I'm guessing he's probably one of

(26:01):
those people who thinks that, you know, some of those
animals are going to become extinct, and he wants to
prevent that from happening. I'm reading between the lines on
that one. So he might be a little bit more liberal.
But then against twenty two I mean, when I was
twenty two years old, I was probably liberal myself, and
I certainly did not have two twenty million dollar companies.

(26:21):
As long as he's not becoming going to become a
George Sorow style billionaire, then more power to him, all right.
Speaking of the planet, I was speaking of polar bears.
I guess polar bears last time I checked. Polar bears
need oxygen to live. You and I need oxygen to live.
So when you see that, NASA is putting out a warning,
No seriously, they're putting out a warning that there's going

(26:44):
to come a time when there's no more oxygen left
on planet Earth, that the planet will evolve in a
direction that will take us back to where we were
before we got this oxygen rich environment that led to
human life and all other life on Earth. NASA putting

(27:06):
out a warning about it. So it must be getting
relatively close, right at least within the next one or
two or three thousand years for them to put out
a warning, eh, not really. Here we go.

Speaker 12 (27:19):
As the Sun's brightness increases, carbon dioxide rapidly diminishes due
to the long term carbon cycle, halting photosynthesis and causing
oxygen levels to drop rapidly. This process leaves Earth's lifespan
at an estimated approximately one point zero eight billion years.

Speaker 6 (27:40):
How much time we got left? One point zero eight billion? Well, well,
never know, will we we We certainly won't be around.
That's okay. I'll take another billion years, yeah, I think, well,
I think yeah, I think it'll be all right. We'll
take another billion years on planet Earth. By that time,

(28:01):
I think we'll figured out somewhere else to live if
this planet is indeed going back to its origins. All right,
we're gonna take another break. We're back with more in
a moment. Jimmy Bairtt Show here on the M nine
fifty KPRC. All Right, we're gonna fight some crime with

(28:29):
our final segment today. There is a list of cities
coming out that President Trump might be very, very interested
in sending in the National Guard to help the local
police get a handle on crime. I'm gonna guess that.
In addition to Washington, d C, Baltimore, Maryland has been mentioned, Detroit,

(28:52):
Michigan has been mentioned. Of course, Detroit has always had
a bunch of crime. But interestingly enough, the city that
has the highest rate of violent crime in the United
States right now, it's not Detroit, Michigan, it's not New Orleans,
it is it is Saint Louis, Missouri. Did you know
that Saint Louis. Saint Louis doesn't get a ton of

(29:15):
publicity for being a violent place, but they've had a
violent crime program a problem, brother, for a long long time.
Maryland's governor does not want the National Guard, thinks it's unconstitutional,
thinks it's unsustainable, wants nothing to do with the National
Guard in his state. In Baltimore. Senator Eric Schmidt, however,

(29:39):
from Missouri, would be happy to see the National Guard
in Saint Louis.

Speaker 1 (29:45):
Yeah.

Speaker 13 (29:45):
I mean this conversation with Director Patel and actually Attorney
General Pam Bondi began during the confirmation process. Cash made
it very clear that he wanted to get more field
agents out of Washington, d C.

Speaker 1 (29:57):
And into the field and the rest of the country.

Speaker 13 (30:00):
And I said, I got just the place for you,
my hometown of Saint Louis, and of course, you know,
Saint Louis is dealt with violent crime for a very
long time. And I think what everyone realizes now over
this that had this flirtation that Democrats did with the
defund the police and all this nonsense in twenty twenty
is that there's no substitute for a law enforcement presence
on the streets and then actual prosecution of violent criminals.

(30:21):
And so yes, Saint Louis is going to get the
largest infusion of per capita, permanent FBI agents with INTEL
officers with the sole mission of combating violent crime.

Speaker 1 (30:31):
That's where we need.

Speaker 13 (30:32):
And I'm really glad that Cash Hotel has made this
a priority for the FBI.

Speaker 1 (30:35):
I think this can be a model.

Speaker 13 (30:36):
When I was Attorney General actually during the first Trump administration,
when we partnered with the US attorneys to do something
called the Safer Streets Initiative, where we had deputy we
had assistant AG's deputies as assistant US attorneys to prosecute
violent crime in federal courts. One of my former colleagues
in the AG's office when I was AG is now
going to be the US Attorney in Saint Louis. So
I think you're going to have a lot of synergy
here between the FBI, the US Attorney's Office, and also

(31:00):
local law enforcement too to go out there and arrest
and prosecute violent criminals. I mean, look, and I can
tell you that the people you know writ large across
the region. People want to deal with this violent crime issue.
But nobody wants to deal with them more than the
individuals who are in these communities affected by it every day.
And they're tired of cleaning up broken glass on Sunday mornings,
are tired of family members being terrorized by violent criminals.

(31:24):
And I think this is going to go a long
way and making sure the resources are actually on the
ground arresting these these gangs and violent members of our
community that are that again are committing violent crimes.

Speaker 6 (31:35):
Well there you go. So Missouri Senator in favor of it,
Maryland's governor not in favor of it. It's a control
issue with Democrats. It's a control issue, and it's bigger
than law enforcement in those cities. It has is much
or more to do with the judges. We got to
stop elightning all these progressive judges. That's a huge part

(31:58):
of the problem. If we could get the judges back
to where they're willing to, you know, be lenient a
misdemeanors to a to a point only to a point
repeat offenders up, dupnup. We're not gonna play that. We're
not gonna play that anymore. But but you know, we've
got to be tough with violent criminals, and we're not.

(32:19):
We're not being tough with violent criminals. All right, one
more for you here before we call today, and it
has to do with central Democrats. Democrats who are not
progressive far left, the ones, the ones that the job
whit Myers of the world right, the ones that basically,
you know, the old school Democrats. Yeah they're they're they're

(32:40):
more liberal than you are, but they're not crazy, and
they're certainly not woke, and they're certainly not using that language.
Centrists Democrats want the progressive left to stop using some
of these words, these woke words, because it's driving people
away from the party. Their registrations. They're down two point

(33:01):
one million, while Republicans are up two point four million.
There's been a huge shift, and a lot of it
has to do with the woke elite that nobody wants
to tolerate anymore. So here's a few examples. Patriarch comes
to mind. Calling people are homeless, unhoused, that kind of

(33:23):
stuff that drives the rest of us crazy. So here's
a few examples of that and reaction to it.

Speaker 5 (33:29):
When the Republicans start there, there will be macro and microaggressions, There.

Speaker 8 (33:34):
Will be overt racist attacks.

Speaker 6 (33:35):
We are voting out the people who are continuing these
systems of oppression.

Speaker 11 (33:39):
Donald Trump is an existential threat to our democracy.

Speaker 3 (33:43):
Trump's call to immediately clear on how people from the
streets of DC.

Speaker 8 (33:47):
In danger, the lives of all went in and all
britten people in this country, formerly incarcerated people, don't.

Speaker 2 (33:56):
Be a handmade into the patriarchy.

Speaker 14 (33:59):
Yeah, they paint a guy in million dollars to tell
them to talk like Republicans. I mean, what kind of
democrat needs a memo to know how to talk and
know how not to sound like a moron?

Speaker 1 (34:08):
Because when they talk like that, we laugh.

Speaker 14 (34:11):
Anyone ever uses the word unhoused, I know you're crazy,
and I know you're a liberal.

Speaker 1 (34:19):
Why'd you look at Jessica when I had a glance.

Speaker 14 (34:22):
Even Jessica doesn't even use this stuff. My liberal parents
don't talk like this. This is for the extreme of
the extreme. These are fake phrases that intellectuals use to
sound sophisticated and snobby, but they actually sound ridiculous. Now,
I like the idea of having things that you're not

(34:43):
supposed to set I live my life. It's kind of
like an axiom don't do certain things, like I don't
do drugs anymore. I don't watch television in my free time.
I don't use ethnic humor on television.

Speaker 1 (35:00):
And these things have gotten me very far. But you
still talk about women a lot. I do. Should I
add that to the list? Said?

Speaker 14 (35:07):
Now, the Democrats, if they start not using these words,
they're gonna.

Speaker 1 (35:11):
Start sounding like Judge Janine. They're gonna start saying.

Speaker 14 (35:14):
The black guy, you know, the gay guy, the illegal alien, Yeah,
the homeless guy, he's fat.

Speaker 1 (35:19):
He's really hungry.

Speaker 14 (35:20):
This is great, but it's not what you think it is.
You'd think Democrats would think, Oh, thank god, I'm relieved,
I'm not to sound like a professor. No, they're going
to be incredibly anxious because now they're worried they're going
to offend people, and they're also concerned with not sounding
smart enough, because at the end of the day, it's

(35:41):
really about signaling you're from the upper intellectual class.

Speaker 6 (35:46):
Ain't that the truth? That is it? That's really what
it's all about. That is what woke is about, more
than anything else, is about elitism. We're smarter than you are,
or you would talk like us too. All right, listen, y'all,
have a great day. Thanks for listening. See you tomorrow morning,
Brger Early starting at five AM over our news radio
seven forty k t r H. We're back here at

(36:08):
four on AM nine fifty k t r C.
