or wherever you listen to podcasts. Top stories we are
following this hour, of course, the big one, one of
the biggest US Supreme Court rulings in many years. President
Trump making his opinion known on today's blockbuster decision overturning
many of his tariffs see.

Speaker 3 (01:37):
Supreme Court's ruling on tariffs is deeply disappointing, and I'm
ashamed of certain members of the court, absolutely ashamed for
not having the courage to do what's right for our country.

Speaker 1 (01:53):
We will discuss in depth what the ruling means, whether
it was the correct ruling, where the Trump administration goes
from here, and what it all means for you.

Speaker 2 (02:01):
Coming up in.

Speaker 1 (02:02):
Just a second, right after the Daily Trump Date at
about four ten four fifteen, A big exclusive story are
Democrats in the Wisconsin Assembly sending home members who don't
vote with the rest of the party, and heaven forfend
actually side with Republicans. It sure looks like it's been

(02:23):
happening during the last couple of days of the legislative
session yesterday and now the spillover session which is going
on today. The State Assembly back in session after a
lengthy recess. We will have all the latest from today,
the last day of the State Assembly's year, yes on
February twentieth, coming up throughout the day here on the

(02:46):
Dan O'Donnell Show. So what exactly does the Trump tariff
ruling state? Pretty much the exact opposite of what everybody thinks.
It states the tariffs were not struck down today. In fact,
nobody knows exactly how many tariffs were struck down. Best guests,

(03:07):
roughly sixty percent of all of President Trump's tariffs. In
a six' to three decision today authored By Chief Justice
John roberts and joined in his opinion, by of, course
The court's three, liberals but also you Had Amy Coney
barrett as well As Neil gorsich joining the. Majority, here

(03:33):
The court ruled that what is known AS. Iepa you
have probably HEARD iepa mentioned quite a. Bit, no it
is not the new female rapper who's tearing up the.
Charts it is Ieepa International Emergency Economic Powers. Act this
is a law from nineteen seventy, seven and in basic,

(03:53):
terms what the court ruled was THAT iipa does not
authorize The president to imposed triffs in the way that
he did. So NOW iepa specifically says that The president
does have the inherent authority to regulate importation during a
declared national, emergency but that this power is not granted

(04:17):
to him unilaterally to impose tariffs of any unlimited scope
or amount or. Duration in, fact the court rested heavily
on WHAT i believe the correct interpretation of The constitution.
Is congress has several enumerated powers that are expressly granted

(04:38):
to it Through article, One section. Eight the very first among,
these The congress shall have power to lay and collect, taxes, duties,
imposts and excises to pay the debts and provide for
the common defense and general welfare of The United. States

(04:58):
this means that all tariff authority comes from The. Congress
The congress has to delegate that authority in explicit, terms
and it can only delegate its authority in a limited.
Fashion The trump administration sweepingly interpreted the term regulate importation

(05:20):
FROM aepa The International Emergency Economic Powers act to, say, okay,
well if we have a significant trade. Imbalance let's say
With Berkina, fosso then we need to impose a, sweeping
permanent tariff On Burkina. Fosso The court held today that
that is a violation Of article, One section, eight because

(05:42):
that is a specifically.

Speaker 2 (05:43):
Enumerated power to The.

Speaker 1 (05:45):
Congress, now on several recent or relatively recent, Occasions congress
has delegated authority to The, president most recently IN, iepa
but it is also used The Trade Expansion act of
nineteen sixty, two Specifically section two thirty two of that

(06:07):
law to grant The president in certain limited, exceptions to
put tariffs on foreign nations or on foreign. Corporations The
International Emergency Economic Powers ACT, aepa, though only allows for
executive imposed terrorists without the consent of The congress under
specific limited, circumstances such as a true national security. Emergency

(06:33):
the traditional definition of that is the obvious. One if
we are at war with a country and we need
to economically punish, them we can't wait For congress to.
Deliberate we can't wait through the possibility of A senate.
Filibuster The president needs to, act and he needs to
act very very. Quickly this is why we have emergency.

(06:55):
Powers but The president saying that there was a significant
trade balance or imbalance with certain, countries or the fact
that The United states was importing far too many goods
that didn't have a specific national security component to, them
that is not enough to trigger what is a true.

(07:16):
Emergency The president also claimed in his argument before the
court that there is an inherent authority to set trade
policy via. Tariffs, so in, short there's no emergency that
would have necessitated the seizure of this expressly delegated power
to The. Congress this, is broadly, speaking the correct. Answer

(07:41):
this is the correct ruling from The Supreme court on
the merits of what it was that was brought before the. Court, now,
this you might, recognize says nothing about the wisdom of,
tariffs about the policy impact of, tariffs about the national
security impact of, tariffs because there is a set aside
for true national security apparatus need for a, tariff and in,

(08:05):
fact all of the tariffs that The president put on
things that are in the national security supply, chain things
that we would need in case there is a war
that say breaks out With china. Tomorrow let's Say china
is super ticked off that The olympic champion figure skater
didn't skate for, them but instead The United. States fantastic,

(08:28):
story by the, way About Alyssa. Lou we'll try to
get to that a little bit later on in the.
Program she won gold in the women's figure, skating and
in the exact opposite situation as what was it the
Snowboarder Eileen gou who is born and raised and has
the entire benefit of living In, america but instead gets
a ton of money in skis or snowboards For. China Alyssa,

(08:50):
lou whose father was actually A chinese, dissenter and she
actually faced some significant. Harassment she actually NEEDED fbi intervention
during The Beijing olympics in twenty twenty. Two let's Say
china goes to war tomorrow because they are so upset
about this figure. Skater, well, rather, obviously we need to

(09:11):
protect The american supply, chain so we need to have
strategic tariffs on things like, steel on things like say,
silicon on things that we need to produce weapons of
war and for our national. Defense so that is inherently
in the president's authority to levy. Terris what the court

(09:31):
ruled today is that everything that isn't in this express
authority cannot be covered under what is explicitly designated as
An Emergency Economic Powers. Act, essentially there was no. Emergency in,
fact there was a fantastic question that was raised during
ear oral arguments of this case a couple of months

(09:52):
ago By Neil, gorsich one of the justices who actually
wrote a concurring opinion and joined with the majority in
striking down the president's use OF. Iepa he actually, asked,
well what if A democrat president said there was a
climate change? Emergency could said president then declare that we
need to have ninety five percent tariffs on all things

(10:15):
that go towards polluting industries manufacturing in an effort to
assuage the devastating impacts of this climate. Emergency it was
a fantastic, question and this is what sort of gets
to the heart of what this constitutional issue is ultimately all.
About just as we wouldn't Want PRESIDENT aoc in five,
years heaven forbid that ever. Occurs but let's Say PRESIDENT

(10:39):
aoc declares that remember she famously said what in twenty
eighteen that in twelve years the world is going to
end if we don't do something about climate. Change, well
let's say she USES iepa authority to tariff every single
manufacturing industry out of. Existence that obviously would be a bad,
thing and we conservatives would be, saying, well, hey, wait

(11:00):
she should have to go to The congress for.

Speaker 4 (11:03):
That.

Speaker 1 (11:04):
Now there was a lengthy dissent written By Brett, kavanaugh
and it was a fascinating legal. Argument what he thinks
is that tariffs are a traditional and common, tool as
he wrote to regulate. Importation in, fact the phrase that
is explicitly mentioned IN aepa that allows The president to

(11:26):
regulate importation during emergencies naturally encompasses. Tariffs just as the
president can issue up a quota on trade like how
many cars were going to import From, japan or can
issue a trade embargo like we did On, cuba this
would obviously there is an inherent authority for the president

(11:50):
to be able to levy, tariffs And kavanaugh argued that
both context and common sense make this, clear even though
tariff or duty or anything that would be a synonym
for what The president levied On Liberation day never actually
explicitly appears in the. Statute and What kavanaugh did brilliantly

(12:12):
was to, say, okay let's go back to When congress
actually enacted THE iepa. Statue this was in nineteen seventy,
seven and just in the last couple of years before
that statute was, Enacted President, nixon i believe six years,
before in nineteen seventy, one actually imposed a ten percent

(12:32):
import surcharge across the entire. World it was part of
His trading with The Enemy, act and this was upheld
by every court that challenged. It the president back, Then Richard, nixon, Said,
okay if you are trading with our, enemies if you
are trading with The Soviet union or any of the

(12:53):
dominoes in the then popular domino, theory we are going to.
Import we are going to. Tariff we are going to
impose essentially a tariff on. You so he said exactly
What President trump actually proposed, today and we'll get to
this in a second.

Speaker 2 (13:08):
Ten percent worldwide import.

Speaker 1 (13:12):
Surcharge not only, that in nineteen seventy, six there was
a Significant Supreme court ruling in which the court held
unanimously in, fact that the authority to adjust imports ie
teriffs included monetary charges like.

Speaker 2 (13:32):
Fees what this means is that.

Speaker 1 (13:35):
The very next, year when The congress PASSED iepa in
nineteen seventy, seven it would have very clearly understood regulating
importation to include the tool of adjusting. Imports in other,
words he's going back to legislative intent and saying that
WHEN aipa was first introduced and then passed by The,

(13:56):
Congress congress specifically delegated it's a authority on teriffs to
the president to adjust. Imports, now WHAT i believe the
winning argument is here as, well argued As kavanaugh's descent.
Was the winning argument, though is there is no discernible
authority for the president to just sort of make up

(14:17):
an emergency out of thin. Air just AS aoc can't, say,
well the world is going to end in twelve, years
we're now in a climate, Emergency President trump can't, say,
well we're importing a little bit more goods THAN i would,
like AND i want to bring manufacturing back To. America
we don't have as many manufacturing jobs as we used.

(14:38):
To that's an. Emergency, no it actually. Isn't, however it's
not as Though President trump's tariff regime is, over and
he said so in a press conference. Today following the, rule.

Speaker 3 (14:50):
Other alternatives will now be used to replace the ones
that the court incorrectly.

Speaker 2 (14:54):
Rejected we have.

Speaker 3 (14:56):
Alternatives great alternatives.

Speaker 5 (15:00):
Could be more.

Speaker 3 (15:00):
Money we'll take in more, money and we'll be a
lot strong Before we're taking in hundreds of billions of,
dollars will continue.

Speaker 1 (15:08):
To do, so and in, fact it's entirely possible that
there isn't going to, be at least in the short,
term all that much disruption to the tariffs that are
already in. Place the biggest tool that the president has
is under That Trade act of nineteen seventy. Four it's
known As section one point twenty, two and The president

(15:28):
said today he's going to sign an executive order imposing
under this section a ten percent global tariff over and,
above he, said are normal tariffs already being. Charged, now
what this provision does is it acts sort of like
an emergency. Authority The president is allowed to impose up

(15:48):
to a fifteen percent tariff on all imports up to
one hundred and fifty days to address quote large and
serious balance of payments. Deficits this is What President trump
should have used all along and then gone to The.
Congress after one hundred and fifty, days the tariffs expire

(16:08):
If congress doesn't. Act If congress agrees and says yes
under section one twenty, two we want these tariffs to,
continue the tariffs. Continue there is also section two thirty
two of The Trade Expansion act of nineteen sixty, two
and this is Why President trump's existing tariffs that are

(16:29):
based on national security steel aluminum is another big. One
those remain in full. Force Both trump And Treasury Secretary Scott,
bessant as well as THE Us Trade representative all stressed
today that these are going to, continue and in, fact
all of them have survived prior legal. Challenges today during

(16:51):
his press, Conference President trump said exactly what he was
going to, do including using section three oh one of
The Trade act of nineteen six seventy four to launch
investigations into unfair trade. Practices that is another avenue by
Which President trump can act unilaterally and THE Us Trade

(17:12):
representative is authorized to look into what would be an
unfair trade practice looking at, You, china that would be
the one that The president would be able to turn
to and, say, okay well we can identify all manner
of unfair trade practices That china is engaged. In so
we're going to get our terrifs right back in place On.

(17:33):
China under this.

Speaker 3 (17:34):
Effective, immediately all national security tariffs Under section two thirty
two and Existing section three oh one, tariffs they're, existing they're,
there remain in, place fully in, place.

Speaker 2 (17:50):
And in full force and.

Speaker 3 (17:51):
Effect TODAY i will sign in order to impose a
ten percent global tariff Under section one twenty.

Speaker 2 (17:57):
Two over and.

Speaker 3 (17:58):
Above are normal tariffs already being. Charged and we're also
initiating Several section three oh one and other investigations to
protect our country from unfair trading practices of other countries and.

Speaker 1 (18:15):
Companies so what ultimately does this, mean how many tariffs
remain in? Effect what's going to go on with all
of that tariff revenue The United states took. In we
will answer all of those questions in just three minutes
right here on The dan o' donald's. Show remember when
leftists said that This Supreme court was illegitimate Because Donald

(18:37):
trump had nominated and gotten approved a full third of
the justices on, it and it was just going to
do the bidding Of. Republicans, yeah whenever they say that
from now, on kindly point them to the tariff decision.
Today this is a, court my dear, Friend Jay, WEBER i,

(18:57):
think had the single best take on this in a. Post,
yes he is still on social. Media he is going
to be back by the, way just because he retired
from Daily, radio The Daily. Grind i'm wondering how he
feels actually being able to get up after about TWO.
AM i wonder if just out of force of, habit
he's still getting up that early if you're anything like,

(19:21):
ME i don't know what it. Is and my father,
said you, Know, dan eventually her prostate swells to about
the size of a grapefruit and you've got to pee
every three. Hours it's not, that BUT i get up
and INVARIABLY i am up at like almost exactly three
o'clock am every single.

Speaker 2 (19:39):
Morning it does not it does not. MATTER i don't
know what it.

Speaker 1 (19:44):
Is But, jay After i'm sure got a full eight
hours of sleep posted this is more proof that this
conservative court actually has more fidelity to The United States
constitution than perhaps any in my. Lifetime this was not about,

(20:04):
Politics this was not about, policy and in, fact, folks
this was very obviously the correct decision on the merits
in terms of how the court should have. Ruled i'll
give you a very, clear a very clear parallel here In,
wisconsin shortly after THE covid nineteen, Pandemic Governor Tony evers

(20:29):
declared a public health, emergency which was absolutely.

Speaker 2 (20:32):
Appropriate it was.

Speaker 1 (20:33):
Justified we had no idea how SERIOUS covid nineteen was
going to. Be it went into effect the so Called
safer At home order under this public health, emergency actually
On Saint Patrick's. Day it Was march, seventeenth twenty. Twenty
and eventually the public health emergency was ended by the

(20:54):
State Supreme. Court safer At home order was declared to
be null and void and un constitutional because the public
health emergency had expired and the state legislature had not.
Consented When Governor evers decided that he wanted a statewide mask,
mandate and you might remember that initially leftists were not

(21:15):
saying we all needed to wear. Masks it was only
about i'd, say about five six months into the, pandemic
actually probably About, midsummer when they decided that everybody needed
to wear masks or all of us were going to.
Die Governor evers actually declared a new public health, emergency
and knowing that he wasn't going to be able to
get his mask, mandate passed through the. Legislature he simply

(21:40):
allowed his public health emergency to expire after one hundred
and twenty. Days he then issued a new public health
emergency so that he could simply reissue A mask mandate
without having to go through the state. Legislature it was
one of the most egregious oversteps of executive authority in
the history Of. Wisconsin it just was the governor was

(22:03):
pretending there was a new. Emergency there clearly was no.
Emergency by the summer of twenty twenty, one there was
no emergency with respect TO covid. Nineteen so it would
be awful hypocritical FOR us conservatives to, say all, right,
well we hated the fact that the governor Of wisconsin
was declaring phantom, emergencies but we love the idea that

(22:26):
The president of The United states is, saying, well because
we have a trade deficit with all of these, countries
this constitutes a national. Emergency it. Doesn't and the court
was correct in, that and the court actually stuck up For.
Congress congress has delegated a whole lot of its authority on,
tariffs which is expressly and explicitly authorized and under The,

(22:50):
constitution exclusively the domain of The congress to levy taxes
and to levy, tariffs to levy. Duties this Is congress
The article, One section, eight The Enumerated powers. Clause these
are the specifically enumerated powers of The United States. Congress
this is where we get the Term congress has the

(23:11):
power of the. Purse and The court, said, well this
is part of the power of the. Purse so if
this is raising money for The United, states it falls
under the purview of The. Congress and the only way
that you're able to circumvent this If congress doesn't explicitly
say to The, President, okay in this specific, authority in
this specific, moment you are authorized to levy, teriffs then

(23:33):
there has to be an actual. Emergency and there clearly
wasn't any sort of. Emergency but the big question now
is what exactly is going to happen to all of
that tariff. Revenue Peter doocey Of Fox news Asked President
trump that during a press conference this after.

Speaker 5 (23:49):
Says Liberation, day there's about one hundred and seventy five
billion dollars in tariff revenue that is now in.

Speaker 6 (23:55):
Limbo do you.

Speaker 1 (23:56):
Have to refund one hundred and seventy five, Billion thank,
you very fair.

Speaker 3 (23:59):
Question they take months and months to write an opinion
and they don't even discuss that. Point we've taken in
hundreds of billions of, dollars not, millions hundreds of billions of,
dollars and SO i, said, well what happens all the
money that we took.

Speaker 2 (24:16):
In it wasn't.

Speaker 3 (24:17):
Discussed wouldn't you think they were to put one sentence
in there saying that keep the money or don't keep the? Money,
RIGHT i guess it has to get litigated for the
next two. Years so they writed this, terrible defective. Decision totally.
Defective it's almost like not written by smart. People and

(24:37):
what they do they don't even talk about. That your
question is very. BASIC i was the first QUESTION i.
Asked also to make you feel. Good he, said what
about all the money that we've taken, in? Sir they
don't discuss. That how crazy is?

Speaker 1 (24:49):
That it's incredibly crazy, actually because we're not talking about
a judgment of like two million dollars here against a
plaintiff that were are against the defendant that would need
to go back to the. Plaintiff we are talking about
hundreds of billions of dollars that go back to, companies
that go back to who is in the end paying

(25:09):
for These this is a significant issue. Now as, always
the coolest head, prevails and the coolest head of The
trump administration on economic policy is invariably The Treasury Secretary Scott. Bessett,
now he was hosting an event that was pre planned
in which he was talking about the economy and talking
about all of the successes under the first year of

(25:32):
The trump, administration and he actually, said, Look i'm not
even going to deviate from my planned remarks on terrists
because fundamentally nothing is going to.

Speaker 5 (25:42):
CHANGE i would also like to take a moment to
address Today's Supreme court, ruling AND i would note THAT
i did not change a single word in my speech
they post the. Ruling President trump will always put our
national security In americans, first and AS i have said,
before The president has multiple to rules in his. Toolbox

(26:02):
let's be clear about what today's ruling was and what it.
Wasn't despite the misplaced cluoting From democrats will inform media
outlets and the very people who gutted our industrial, base
The court did not rule Against President trump's. Terriffs six
justices simply ruled that I epa authorities cannot be used

(26:26):
to raise even one dollar of.

Speaker 1 (26:29):
Revenue and that is actually a very significant point that
when you raise, revenue you are essentially usurping the authority
of The.

Speaker 2 (26:39):
Congress all, RIGHT i, hope.

Speaker 1 (26:41):
As Usual bessont is able to explain this fiscal stuff
in thirty. Seconds it takes me what thirty six minutes
to be able to do.

Speaker 5 (26:50):
This administration will invoke alternative legal authorities to replace THE aepa.
Tariffs we will be Leveraging section two thirty two And
section three h one tariff authorities that have been validated
through thousands of legal. Challenges treasury's estimates show that the
use Of section one twenty two, authority combined with potentially

(27:13):
Enhanced section two thirty two And section three h one,
tariffs will result in virtually unchanged tariff revenue in twenty twenty.

Speaker 1 (27:23):
Six and in, FACT i BELIEVE i have no clue
What statue was, Using but as soon AS i heard
him say, THAT i was, Oh i've got The Yale
Budget lab numbers as. Well here's what The Yale Budget lab.
Says the overall average effective tariff rate weighted against all
imports was about sixteen point nine percent before today's. Ruling

(27:47):
it is instantly now dropped to nine point one, percent
meaning roughly forty six of the effective tariff burden remains
in place under other. Authorities that's relatively. Speaking some estimates
have sixty, percent some fifty four. Percent this WAY i
said at the top of the, show nobody is entirely. Sure,

(28:10):
however Once section one twenty two, authority and this is
WHAT i explained earlier in the. Show section one twenty
two of The Trade act of seventy, Four President trump
can charge a up to a fifteen percent tariff for
one hundred and fifty days to address quote large and
serious balance of payment. Deficits congress needs to act after

(28:33):
one hundred and fifty, days but this will take us
through nearly half of the. Year President trump has said
he is going to sign a temporary ten percent tariff
across the. Board he, said on every single nation on Planet,
earth over and above already existing. Tariffs so That's section
one twenty. Two when that is applied in conjunction With

(28:55):
section two thirty two national security, terraffs those remain in.
Place the overall tariff burden jumps to about fifteen point
seven fifteen point eight. Percent, so As besson, said The
Yale budget lab, says, okay the effective tariff rate is
not going to change all that, much and the big
one is probably going to Be section three oh one

(29:17):
of The Trade act of nineteen seventy, four which means
THE Us Trade representative is authorized to recommend and impose
targeted tariffs if it is determined by The presidential administration
by The Executive branch that there are nations or there
are companies engaged in unfair trade. Practices all they have to.

(29:37):
Be only standard here is there has to be a
designation by The Trade representative and the companies have to
be for, it or it has to be a foreign.
Nation so there is significant authority. There and this is
Why besson And trump both believe that a substantial tariff
burden is going to remain in place. Today that add

(29:59):
nothing to do, well very little to do with actually passing.
Legislation Are democrat leaders actually preventing their members from voting
on bills because those members would side With. Republicans it
sure as heck looks like, it And republican. Rep Shay

(30:20):
sortwell called it out on the floor. Today you're not
going to want to miss this big exclusive story here
on The dan O'donald. SHOW i say, exclusive every single
reporter In wisconsin has access to the same VIDEO i.
Do it is very likely that no one else is
going to do this story because it is potentially very.

(30:41):
Scandalous why Is Democrats assembly minority Leader Greta nubauer Keeping
democrat reps from the, floor like physically telling them go,
home do not go to the floor if you're going
to vote With. Republicans we are going to get to
that after the top of the. Hour right, now we
are talking tariff again and we go To greg listening

(31:02):
to us down In. Florida, Greg welcome to The dan O'Donnell.
Show it is, snowy gray and cold. Here please know
THAT i hate you very.

Speaker 7 (31:09):
Much Thanks, dan you bet my.

Speaker 2 (31:13):
Friends what's?

Speaker 7 (31:14):
Up i've just been listening to all this press conference
and everything's going going on before.

Speaker 4 (31:19):
That you're?

Speaker 7 (31:20):
CORRECT i mean the statues set that are out there
two thirty two to three oh, ONE i think it, is, yep,
yep those are still in. Place and that's that work
and price and that's really what's driving our our pricing
actions to compensate for the. Tariff but the first thing
we did was went out and mass suppliers to take
the price increase and lower their prices by. That that's

(31:42):
what every other country. Does it, has for, instance value add.
Attaches they companies that export to those countries have to
lower their prices by the value the bas, Right and
that's what this. Is this should have been handled that
way by ANY us. Manufacturer the first question they should
have had was pay lower your, prices and then they

(32:04):
should have been looking to cover the cross for. It
but in any, case some companies did, that some companies.
Didn't this doesn't really change the. GAME i really wish
you wouldn't come up with another ten percent that he's talking.
About you know that The democrats can throw that right
back to. Him has continued to drive on. Affordability that,
RIGHT i don't think that's.

Speaker 4 (32:23):
Wise, well but.

Speaker 1 (32:26):
That's what that, is just real, quick real, Quick i'm
sorry to. Interrupt that is. Strategic that is to, say
to all the other nations that have already agreed to
new trade deals with The United, States, look don't think
you're going to be able to back out of. This,
Okay so what this is sort of it's sort of
a cutch.

Speaker 7 (32:44):
Up mostly agreement.

Speaker 1 (32:45):
Safe, yeah, yeah and and that and that is sort
of the other thing that a lot of these are
getting signed off. On so it's it's sort of a moot.
Point but please go, Ahead greg. Continue.

Speaker 7 (32:58):
Yeah, NO i Think congress should cost the the fifteen
percent range of tariffs that they've done with most Everybody Europe.
Asia they should just codify, that be done with.

Speaker 2 (33:09):
It, well was fortunately as backup.

Speaker 1 (33:11):
Plan, unfortunately you've got A Democrat senate that absolutely is
not going to even Though democrats in The, senate specifically
The Bernie sanders, wing have wanted tariffs and have argued
for terriffs. Forever thank you very much for the phone, Call.
Greg go out there and enjoy the balmy.

Speaker 2 (33:29):
Weather.

Speaker 1 (33:29):
NOW a lot of people think What President trump was
talking about during his press conference today using this alternate
authority granted to him by statutes from nineteen sixty two
and nineteen seventy FOUR Uh section two thirty, Two section
one twenty, two in section three oh. One, specifically you're
going to hear those talked about quite a, bit especially,

(33:49):
tonight as analysts are sort of bringing you their takes on,
this so you need to understand. Those, Basically section two
thirty two of the nineteen seventy Four act Allows President
trump to authorize one hundred and fifty day tariffs on
pretty much every nation On earth for up to one
hundred and fifty. Days he decided to do so for

(34:10):
ten percent tariffs on every single, country over and above
what's already authorized Under section one twenty two of The
Trade act of nineteen sixty, two which authorizes national security related, materials, steel,
aluminum that sort of stuff as designated by The Executive.
Branch The president does have national security authority inherent in,

(34:34):
that so he is able to keep those tariffs. Going
and Then section three oh, one if there are unfair
trade practices that are identified by THE Us Trade, representative
The president can authorize tariffs, there and that is probably
what he is going to do on hostile, nations Especially.
China But democrats are, saying, well the president is is

(34:55):
talking about just disobeying The Supreme. Court, yeah, LIKE i don't,
Know democrats have been saying forever that they would. Do in,
Fact i'm going to take you back almost exactly two
years AGO aoc on CNN's Anderson cooper. Show when The

(35:17):
United States Supreme court struck Down President biden's attempts to
do an election year payoff to college graduates with his
student loan forgiveness, PLAN aoc, said very simply ignore the
court and do it.

Speaker 8 (35:32):
ANYWAY i believe that The biden administration should ignore this.
RULING i think that we know the courts have the,
legitimacy and they rely on the legitimacy of their, rulings
and what they are currently doing is engaged in an
unprecedented and dramatic erosion of the legitimacy of the. Courts

(35:55):
it is the justices, themselves through the deeply partisan and
founded nature of these, rulings that are undermining their own.

Speaker 9 (36:05):
Enforcement so when you're saying The biden administrations should ignore this,
court but what does that look?

Speaker 6 (36:10):
Like what does that actually?

Speaker 2 (36:11):
Mean you?

Speaker 8 (36:11):
KNOW i think the interesting thing when it comes to
a ruling is that it relies on, enforcement and it
is up to The biden administration to, enforce to choose
whether or not to enforce such a.

Speaker 1 (36:25):
Ruling, remember these are the same people lecturing you about
what is and is not a threat to. Democracy something
tells me that an administration saying we have all the
power because we're the ones who actually Enforced Supreme court,
rulings so we will decide Which Supreme court rulings we're
going to. Enforce that would seem to be a pretty
big threat to, democracy especially when a presidential administration actually does.

(36:51):
It President Biden may of twenty twenty, four very shortly
after AOC's appearance On The Anderson Cooper show bragging to
a crowd during a reelection event that was shortly before
he was forced from the race following his disastrous debate,
performance he, said, look The Supreme court SAID i couldn't do,
this but they didn't stop.

Speaker 10 (37:11):
Me Prime court blocked me from re leaving student, dead
but they didn't stop.

Speaker 11 (37:15):
Me so FAR i relieved.

Speaker 10 (37:18):
Student definitely five Million, americans a significant number of black.
Barrows so you can chase your, dreams start a, family
buy your first, home start a.

Speaker 12 (37:28):
Business it's so much.

Speaker 1 (37:30):
More oh, really so we can just do whatever we,
want even though The Supreme court said. No that sounds
kind of anti democratic to. Me it sounds sort of
insurrectiony to. Me if you have got a presidential administration
SAYING i don't respect the authority of The Supreme, Court

Speaker 1 (39:30):
More the president in the press conference, today calling The
Supreme court decision striking down many of his tariffs a.

Speaker 3 (39:38):
Disgrace barn countries that have been ripping us off for
years are.

Speaker 2 (39:43):
Ecstatic you're so, happy and they're dancing in the.

Speaker 3 (39:47):
Streets but they won't be dancing how long, THAT i
can assure.

Speaker 1 (39:51):
You that's because The president is vowing to use other
statutory powers to keep tariffs in.

Speaker 3 (39:58):
Place Now i'm going to go in a different, direction
probably the direction THAT i.

Speaker 12 (40:05):
Should have gone the first.

Speaker 2 (40:07):
Time BUT i read the.

Speaker 3 (40:08):
Language i'm very good at reading, language and it read
our way one hundred.

Speaker 2 (40:11):
Percent but Now i'll go the WAY i could have
gone to. Originally now what way is?

Speaker 4 (40:17):
That?

Speaker 1 (40:17):
EXACTLY Us Trade Representative Jamison greer at today's press, cott.

Speaker 15 (40:22):
We have a lot of tools out there in section
one play, two which will be implement it. Today we'll
be signed, today implemented it very. Shortly in section three
oh one investigations which are incredibly legally, durable where we can,
address investigate and address unfair trading practices that have led
to our huge trade. Deficit so you can look forward
in the coming days and weeks to seeing all of

(40:43):
that come, out and we're going to keep continuity in the.
Program we're going to keep addressing this so that the
deficit can keep going, down that the trend it, has
and we can Make america greadin.

Speaker 1 (40:52):
Now The president, said in addition to those investigations of
unfair trade practices under section three oh one of The
Trade act of nineteen seventy, one that tariffs under section
two thirty two of The Trade Expansion act will remain in,
effect and that he's signing a ten percent global tariff
as well Under section one twenty two of The Trade

(41:15):
act of nineteen seventy. One The president was asked today
if THE us was now defenseless economically after his emergency
tariffs were deemed to be.

Speaker 2 (41:26):
Unlawful, sir you.

Speaker 3 (41:26):
Warned once in a social media post that if The
Supreme court did this shot down your, tariffs THE us
would be quote financially. Defenseless are we financially defenseless, though
because we're doing something in a different. Way we're doing
something in a very powerful, way and we're using things
that some people have thought we should have used in
the first. Place but it's more. Complicated it's a little more,

(41:49):
complicated the process takes a little more, time but the
end result is going to get us more, money AND
i think it's going to be.

Speaker 1 (41:56):
Great, now it is still unclear what's going to happen
to the tens of billions of dollars THE us has
taken in in tariff revenue under The Emergency tariffs Since
Liberation day Last. April but what The president is clearly
talking about is unfair trade practice. Investigations Under section three
oh one of The Trade act of nineteen seventy, one
The president does have broad, authority as does THE Us

(42:18):
Trade Representative Jamison, greer to investigate and then impose punitive
tariffs on, nations especially Like. China that would, be in
The president's, words ripping The United states. Off that, is
ladies and, gentlemen your Daily trump date coming up very
shortly here on The dan O'Donnell. Show What i'm willing

(42:39):
to wager is going to be an. Exclusive democrats caught
red handed on the floor of The State assembly today
sending their own members home and not allowing them to
vote when they get word that those members are going
to vote With. Republicans it's actually a relatively shocking, scandal

(42:59):
And democrats were absolutely caught today doing. It first, THOUGH
i know there are a lot of you in our
listening audience who are furious with The Supreme, court especially
the Three, Conservatives John, Roberts Neil, gorsich And Amy Cony,
barrett who joined the Three liberals in striking down the

(43:21):
president's use of emergency tariff authority.

Speaker 2 (43:24):
Today, Well, gorsich.

Speaker 1 (43:26):
In his concurring, opinion has a five paragraph section THAT
i think Every american needs to read and needs to really.
Understand for those who think it important for the nation
to impose more, TARIFFS i understand that today's decision will be.

(43:46):
Disappointing ALL i can offer them is that most major
decisions affecting the rights and responsibilities of The american, people
including the duty to pay taxes and, tariffs are funneled
through the legislative process for a. Reason, yes legislating can
be hard and take, time and, yes it can be
tempting to Bypass congress when some pressing problem, Arises but

(44:11):
the deliberative nature of the legislative process was the whole
point of its. Design through that, process the nation can
tap the combined wisdom of the people's elected, representatives not
just that of one faction or. Man their deliberation, tempers,
impulse and compromise hammer's disagreements into workable, solutions and because

(44:35):
laws must earn such broad support to survive the legislative,
process they tend to, endure allowing ordinary people to plan
their lives in ways they cannot when the rules shift
from day to. Day in, all the legislative process helps
ensure each of us has a stake in the laws
that govern us and in the nation's. Future for some,

(44:58):
today the weight of those virtues a. Parent for, others
it may not seem so. Obvious but if history is any,
guide the tables will, turn and the day will come
when those disappointed by today's result will appreciate the legislative
process for the bulwark of.

Speaker 2 (45:15):
Liberty it is.

Speaker 1 (45:17):
Just As Neil gorsich, eloquent, insightful, concise and undeniably. True,
again he was the justice, who during oral arguments on
this very, case asked The Solicitor General John, sower what
happens if a, president A democrat, president declares there to

(45:39):
be a climate change? Emergency could said, president, Say president
aoc use this same emergency declaration That President trump is
citing to effectively shut off all global trade in the
name of solving this imagined climate change. Emergency, ultimately, NOBODY

(46:02):
i think even Sane democrats wants that to. Happen that
would be authorized if we granted such broad powers to the.
President and, yes it's frustrating Whenever President trump or A
republican president or governor is struck down by the. Court
but this isn't Some and, folks you know you have

(46:24):
been listening to this. Show heaven knows long enough to
KNOW i will always use my legal background to give
honest and, complete thorough analysis and call out when we
have anti constitutional. Rulings we get them all the time
from the Liberal State Supreme. Court but here The United

(46:45):
States Supreme, COURT i, believe came to the correct. CONCLUSION
i had a text, asking, Well dan can you please
explain How alito And thomas got it. Wrong they didn't
get it, wrong they just had a different interpretation of
what constitutes an emergency that would grant The president of
The United states to take for himself emergency powers that

(47:09):
were never granted to him by The. Congress congress undeniably
has the power to levy tariffs that nobody argues that. Point,
however because of the fast paced nature of the global,
economy especially in the Post World WAR ii hyper industrialized,

(47:29):
era The president was granted by The congress through two
different major rulings in nineteen sixty two and nineteen seventy,
one two different acts Of congress that gave him tremendous
power to act and act quickly to Protect american economic
interests and to Protect american manufacturing and to essentially help

(47:52):
regulate global. Trade this was seen as an important bulwark
against the advance of The Soviet. Union anyone who was
trading with our enemies was going to Face america's economic.
Wrath but unless there is an actual, emergency unless there
is something that actually does threaten national sovereignty or national,

(48:15):
Security and, remember the president's national security based tariffs are
all still in, Effect so the global tariffs on, steel
the global tariff's on. ALUMINUM i believe there's a global
tariff on. SILICICON i think there are global tarifts on
things that are necessary for our supply. Chain The president
is absolutely correct in his pursuit of rare earth minerals

(48:39):
that are going to be necessary to the national security
supply chain and the global economic supply chain in the
COMING ai and robotic.

Speaker 2 (48:48):
Economy he is.

Speaker 1 (48:49):
Absolutely correct in wanting to Protect american interests In american
sovereignties surrounding those rare earth. Minerals but The president was
incorrect when he said a mere trade imbalance or The
United states quote unquote getting ripped off by foreign, countries
rises to the level of an. Emergency that rises to

(49:10):
the level where we can Bypass, congress which was delegated
the authority on tariffs and taxes and excises by The.
Constitution we are at, heart all of, us whether we're free,
traders whether we're, protectionists we are all. Constitutionalists we are
all as conservatives of the belief that The constitution is

(49:34):
the supreme law of the, land that the rights that
are granted to us are granted not by, government but
By god, himself and that we limit our government through
the expressly delineated powers that are outlined In section. One article,
ONE i should say for The United States, Congress article
two for the, executive And article.

Speaker 2 (49:56):
Three for the.

Speaker 1 (49:57):
Judiciary when there is a specifically authorized, power Unless, congress,
say delegates that power to the, Executive congress retains that for.
Itself and we want that as, conservatives as strict, constructionists
as those who believe in The, constitution we want it
to be very difficult to change the. Law we want

(50:19):
it to be very difficult to Change american, policy because
the side folks that is going to do so willy
nilly ninety nine times out of one, hundred is not.
Ours it is going to be The, democrats and heaven,
forbid they get, control and they have a rogue executive

(50:41):
branch that just decides it's going to usurp for. Itself
every single power that should buy the law and by
The constitution go to The congress when we come. BACK
a bit of a scandal in The Wisconsin, Assembly democrats
caught sending members home for the horrible sin of voting With.

(51:02):
Republicans today is the final day of the calendar for
The State assembly here In. Wisconsin, YES i, know It's february.
Twentieth this is pretty typical of election. YEARS i Think
i've explained this all week. Long The State senate is
going to be back in, SESSION i, believe one more
day In, march and they are keeping the calendar open
in both houses of the legislature for possible action on tax.

(51:28):
Reform Governor evers is trying his damnedest to try to
Protect democrats from the impact of his disastrous four hundred
year property tax, veto which spiked property tax rates for
pretty much Every wisconsinite who had the misfortune of going
to their mailbox In december and opening their. BILL i
sort of imagine most of you were sort of like

(51:50):
Well Looney tunes, cartoons you, know where the eyes just
bug out as they saw how just dramatically those property taxes.
Spiked but today is the final day of the legislative,
session And republicans are attempting to Get democrats on the
record on all manner of, bills including ones that would

(52:13):
provide some modicum of accountability for The department Of Public.
Instruction they have actually got on this Some democrats', support
including from a representative from The sheboygan area by the
name Of Joe. Shean shean is a former school. EMPLOYEE
i believe he is a former school superintendent or school board.

(52:34):
Memories he's been in the. Schools his background is in the.
Schools today he was actually sent home because he was
going to vote With republicans on those. Bills he was
actually removed from The assembly floor so that he would
not be able to cast a vote With, republicans and

(52:58):
So Greta, nubauer The assembly minority, leader would be able to, say,
well this is this passed with Only republican. Support it,
would in other, words Prevent republicans from, saying, HEY dpi
accountability is a bipartisan. Bill, well the big problem for
This republican, Representative Shay sortwell actually Saw Joe sheian walking

(53:23):
out of the building when he should have been walking
towards the floor of The assembly as.

Speaker 13 (53:28):
The quorum call was going on this, MORNING i was
walking to The assembly chamber AND i saw the represented
from the twenty sixth walking the opposite, direction the represented
From sheboygen walking the opposite, direction and just laughingly thinking
he was going back to his office to get. SOMETHING i, said,
hey here going the wrong. Way he, laughs and he keeps,

(53:51):
walking and then we get to the floor and they
asked for leave for the represent from the twenty six
AND i thought to, myself, well what the hell is going?
On and THEN i thought about a little bit. MORE
i forgot that these bills were on the calendar for,
today and we see that maybe this is more of
the same from the other side of the.

Speaker 2 (54:11):
Aisle they don't want dissent from their.

Speaker 13 (54:14):
Side they want to make sure that because you know,
what the represent for the twenty sixth voted for some
of these bills for accountability FOR, Dpi and just like
they always, do they kick people out of the building
if they won't fall in.

Speaker 1 (54:29):
Line that, is in fact what they have provably done.
Before shortwell actually saw it happening in real time and
went to the floor to call it.

Speaker 2 (54:41):
Out over and over and over.

Speaker 13 (54:44):
Again they send people, home don't let them do their
jobs that they were elected to, do to take votes
on positions that they actually. Hold you, know it's it's
crazy to me that they do this over and over.
AGAIN i, Mean i'm sure it was just coincidence that
he must have had something he had to go to.
Rightway i'm, sure it was just coincidence that they're represented

(55:06):
from the eighty nine and they represented from the ninety
fourth and the representative from the ninety first all just
couldn't possibly be around uh yesterday. Either i'm sure there
weren't any votes they were all trying to.

Speaker 2 (55:20):
Avoid.

Speaker 1 (55:22):
Hmmm in, fact those representatives were in fact all, missing
but not for the entire. Day in, fact one of
them was only missing for a couple of controversial votes
right at the start of this.

Speaker 13 (55:37):
Session but it's just more and more from that side
of the aisle where they don't want to be on
the record on. Things instead they want to hide these
people and hope that somehow it'll work out for them In.
November mister, speaker you know, WHAT i get a lot
of crisis in this. Body for some, Times i'm willing
to take votes that are, unpopular but at Least i'm

(55:59):
on the. Record at Least i'm willing to tell the
voters HOW i, vote AND i don't hide from, them
unlike what happens on that side of the.

Speaker 1 (56:07):
Aisle, now one of those representatives that Sort well, mentioned
the representative from the ninety, fourth Is Democratic. Rep Steve,
doyle and after Sort well yielded the floor after that
impassioned rant where he called Out Joe shehan for walking
away going back to his office so he wouldn't have
to cast a vote on THE dpi accountability. Bills doyle

(56:31):
rose to, say, yeah, yeah, NO i totally totally had.

Speaker 7 (56:38):
A.

Speaker 2 (56:38):
Migrain, yeah that's, it a, Migraine yester.

Speaker 16 (56:41):
RECORD i would just like to explain my absence, yesterday
since that was questioned by The gentleman from The. SECOND
i was black away in my hotel room with a,
migraine AND i got here as soon AS i could
function about six o'clock. Yesterday i'm not afraid to be
here to vote for, bills but in the, future IF

(57:01):
i am throwing, UP i will be sure to notify
the gentleman from the second so he can come to
validate my.

Speaker 2 (57:06):
Absence, ah, yes he had a.

Speaker 1 (57:10):
Migrain what was he trying to avoid sex with his?
Husband every husband in the world is, honey not. Tonight
i've got a. HEADACHE i Think i'm having a. Migrain, Okay, Steve.
Okay Jill, Billings Democrat state. Rep was absolutely furious that

(57:33):
Sort well would suggest That democrats are not actually just
getting random migraines and skipping random, votes that they're not
actually that they're actually just being ordered to stay away
from the floor By assembly. Leadership she, said this was
just absolutely disgusting behavior By, shortwell thank.

Speaker 2 (57:52):
You mister.

Speaker 17 (57:52):
Speaker in my fifteen years in this, BODY i have
never heard anything as disgusting as what the representative from
THE a eighty fifth has said. Today this is this
is a bad road to go down when people start
calling out members on the other side and they don't
know what the heck is going.

Speaker 2 (58:13):
On he has no.

Speaker 17 (58:15):
Ideas he has no idea what's happening in personal lives of,
people personal. Lives he has no idea if they're medical,
issues if they're. Funerals this job takes a lot out of.

Speaker 1 (58:29):
Us and, okay wait a, Second wait a second job
takes a lot out of. You your work is over after.

Speaker 2 (58:37):
Today today Is february.

Speaker 1 (58:40):
Twentieth the rest of the world is working pretty much
Through december. Thirty First Representative, billy.

Speaker 17 (58:47):
We should be able to stay home and be with
family when there is a, crisis and he is talking
out of his.

Speaker 2 (58:55):
Butt he has no.

Speaker 9 (58:57):
Idea remember from the area you're doing just what he was. Doing,
so what DON'T i just make a recommendation everyone in
all in The assembly chambers bring it down a notch.

Speaker 1 (59:10):
Today probably a good. Idea, now she kept talking about
the representative from the eighty, fifth the representative from the eighty.
Fifth in the middle of her impassioned, rat one of
her colleagues actually had to get up and whisper in her.
Ear uh, Yeah so the representative from the eighty fifth
is actually Not Shay. Shortwell it Is Patrick. Snyder shortwell

(59:31):
represents the second.

Speaker 17 (59:32):
To stand up for the people who are my, Colleagues
republicans And. Democrats the. Second i'm, Sorry, pat you know
you're one of my best. Buddies that would.

Speaker 2 (59:50):
Be the representative from the eighty.

Speaker 17 (59:52):
Fifth SO i have to stand up here and defend
my colleagues on both sides of the.

Speaker 2 (01:00:01):
Aisle.

Speaker 1 (01:00:04):
Because there's just no chance That democrat leadership would ever
send any representative home if they were about to cast
a vote or about to do something that leadership didn't, want.

Speaker 2 (01:00:19):
Never, ever.

Speaker 1 (01:00:22):
Ever at that, Point Republican Representative Nate gustafson rose to
ask whether he could ask a question Of Democrat. Rep
sylvia or Tez. Valise the question very. Simple were you
ever told to stay home so you couldn't vote along With?

Speaker 2 (01:00:44):
Republicans thank, you mister.

Speaker 18 (01:00:45):
Speaker real, Quick i'd like to ask the gentle lady
from the eighth if she'd yield to a.

Speaker 2 (01:00:50):
Question would the represent from the eighth yield to a?
Question was that yes or?

Speaker 9 (01:00:58):
Not, well, speaker represent from the eighth will yield to a.

Speaker 2 (01:01:02):
Question the question from.

Speaker 18 (01:01:04):
The question is has the gentle lady from the eighth
ever been told to get off the floor and not
vote for her district.

Speaker 2 (01:01:16):
Represented from the?

Speaker 9 (01:01:17):
Eighth represent from the?

Speaker 2 (01:01:23):
Eighth the answer is, yes missus.

Speaker 1 (01:01:25):
Speaker oh So democrats are telling their members not to
go to the floor when they're going to vote For
republican bills or vote Alongside. Republicans that seems a little
scandalous because the people we know in a democracy have
the right to be represented in a democracy by their

(01:01:47):
democratically elected. Representatives who Is Greta nubauer to tell the
people Of Sylvia ortiz's district That Sylvia ortiz is not
allowed to vote on behalf of the people That Silvia ortiz. Represents.
Now Ortiz BelAZ was of, course not just told to stay.
Home back In september of this past, year we reported

(01:02:09):
extensively and exclusively on. This she was actually accused of
threatening to shoot up The. Capitol she was in a
heated confrontation over the rest of the members of The
Hispanic caucus over whether or not she would be included
on a resolution dedicating a portion Of september and a

(01:02:31):
portion Of october As Hispanic Heritage, month and she was not. Included,
well she was texting back and forth with a number
of other representatives and she said something to the effect, of,
yeah you bring a gun to a knife, FIGHT i
bring AN m sixteen or something like, that AN ak forty.
Seven it was obviously heated, rhetoric but it was not

(01:02:54):
a threat that she was going to bring AN ak
forty seven or AN m sixteen or whatever gun she
actually talked about using to the state. Capital instead of
understanding that's clearly what she. Meant Assembly Minority Leader Greta
nubauer actually went to The capitol police and Had Sylvia

(01:03:16):
Ortiz valais blocked from entering the capital as a threat
to other. Representatives, now Fortunately Assembly Speaker Robin voss got
involved and his office, Said, okay this is ridiculous, clearly
she is not a threat to shoot up the state.
Capital what are we even doing? Here but this is

(01:03:38):
proof positive that what Sort well was, describing That Joe
shehan was not allowed to Give republicans the talking point
That Governor evers is undoubtedly going to veto THE dpi accountability.
Bills what they're going to say, is we passed bipartisan
bills to return some accountability to The department Of publicans,

(01:04:00):
instruction But Tony evers vetoed. Them the reason That democrats
are not being allowed to vote for these is So
newbauer and The democrats can, say, well these are just partisan,
bills our caucus cannot in good Conscious there is also
an element of strategy here that if there's a difficult
bill in an election year and a representative doesn't want

(01:04:22):
to have to vote on, it they are allowed to
simply go. Away but what Sort well is specifically alleging
is that representatives are not being allowed by the leadership
of their party to cast. Votes that is a very serious.
Allegation it seems to have been proven one hundred percent
true by the statements Of sylvia Ortiz, valez who said

(01:04:45):
it happened to her and, FOLKS i can tell you
there have been rumblings not just From sylvia Ortiz, valez
but from other Disaffected democratic representatives that they were not
allowed to vote With republicans on legislation that they want
to vote. On in other, words their constituents are being
effectively disenfranchised and being shut out of the legislative. Process

(01:05:09):
coming up in the five o'clock hour here on The
dan O'donald, show not only do we look back at
the strangest stories of the past seven, days including one

ado it's an hour, late but it is. Timed name
the unhinged liberal of the Day Nazi germany.

Speaker 12 (01:12:06):
Is dangerous because he's Evil.

Speaker 1 (01:12:09):
America today's unhinged liberal of the day is none other
Than Susan, rice when of Former President obama's top. Aides
she was on a podcast yesterday and promised that any
corporation that was seen as being too loyal To President

(01:12:30):
trump will face major revenge or excuse, me consequences if
and When democrats ever retake The White.

Speaker 19 (01:12:41):
House for those that decided that it was you know
that they would act in their perceived very narrow self
interest and you, know take a mee To. Trump they're
going to be held accountable by uh those who come
in opposition To trump and win at the ballot. Box

(01:13:01):
if these corporations think that The democrats when they come
back in, power are going, to you, know play by
the old, RULES i think they've got another thing. Coming
there will be an accountability. Agenda this is not going
to be an instance of you, know forgive and.

Speaker 1 (01:13:19):
Forget When democrats tell you who they, are believe, them
ladies and. Gentlemen Susan, rice your unhinged liberal of the. Day,
now do you remember that When President trump was first,
elected and even, before there were, warnings, brave dire warnings

(01:13:46):
about how the president was going to use his power
to enact revenge against those who had wronged, him against
his political. Enemies he was going to use the powers
of the presidency against those who were siding with, him
against him and with his political. Enemies Susan rice was

(01:14:07):
one of the people warning about. That now she is openly, saying,
hey if you're a company and we think you're a
little too close To Donald, trump we're going to have
Star chamber trials and there's going to be accountability for.
You by the way That democrats were all worried about
revenge for them Persecuting President trump with obviously provably demonstrably

(01:14:33):
phony witch hunt. Investigations they literally invented crimes to charge him,
with and then of course every single one of those
prosecutions fell. Apart In New, york they were able to
get thirty four criminal, convictions thirty four of one. Crime
it was just the same crime repeated thirty four different,

(01:14:54):
times something that is almost never done in prosecutions of that.
Sort and in, Fact New york had really never before
prosecuted anybody under this novel interpretation of one of its
statutes governing perceived. Fraud the idea was that even Though
Donald trump didn't defraud, anybody he defrauded the state Of

(01:15:16):
New york by inflating the values of his real estate.
INVESTMENTS i, mean it was just it was a nonsensical
from the. Start all right after the top of the hour,

Speaker 1 (01:17:59):
Ball it lands On kirsten In Della field up first
on talk Radio. Roulette good, Evening, Kirsten Happy friday.

Speaker 12 (01:18:08):
Day, hi.

Speaker 20 (01:18:12):
How are you.

Speaker 2 (01:18:12):
Doing i'm fantastic what's going on.

Speaker 6 (01:18:16):
Sober driving right? Now but WHAT i want to know
is Was Nancy gothrie In, Tucson arizona kidnapped to be
murdered or was she kidnapped for ransoms?

Speaker 1 (01:18:31):
Boy that is an excellent, question and just like the
investigators looking into her. Disappearance, KIRSTEN i have absolutely no.
Idea it is my very strong. Suspicion, LOOK i had
thought very early on that it was a. Murder it
was some sort of crime of passion. Murder and WHEN

(01:18:51):
i say crime of, PASSION i don't mean like a.
Lover that's usually like some family. ARGUMENT i immediately thought
it was the last people who had seen her, alive
which would have.

Speaker 2 (01:19:01):
Been her brother in law who apparently.

Speaker 1 (01:19:03):
Dropped her off back at her house the day before she,
disappeared the night before she, disappeared or the night of her,
disappearance and her own, Daughter Annie. Guthrie they have since
been cleared as suspects by THE. Fbi my theory now
is that this was a burglary gone, wrong And nancy
was killed in that. Burglary then the perpetrators came back

(01:19:29):
and attempted to get rid of the, evidence the doorbell,
camera that sort of thing there apparently was UNKNOWN DNA
dna that does not match any, database does not match
any known. Sample it would be my very strong suspicion
that they would have GOTTEN dna samples from the family,
members so that's how they were able to actually eliminate

(01:19:50):
the family as. Suspects but as for whether she was taken,
ransom it is it is, very very unlikely because the
first ransom call or ransom note did not come in
until significantly after she was first taken into. Custody and
that strikes me as somebody who isn't actually the, kidnapper

(01:20:14):
isn't actually the, killer somebody who rather is trying to
profit off of easily the highest profile missing person's case
in The United states in. Years let's go back out
to the phones and talk With tim In. Greenfield, tim
you're up next on talk Radio Roulette.

Speaker 21 (01:20:36):
Damn this Is tim From. Greenfield, first a compliment to.
You you have really written to the occasion of moving
from morning to after, well thank.

Speaker 2 (01:20:46):
You thank you.

Speaker 21 (01:20:48):
More this week you've definitely you covered WELL ai and
the you covered How Tom holman h.

Speaker 14 (01:21:02):
An impact agreement In.

Speaker 21 (01:21:03):
Minnesota we're getting to the.

Speaker 14 (01:21:05):
Question i'm not a lib BUT i am interested to
see WHETHER i want the, SORRY i want THE i
ought there to be a pause in the departation of
illegals once we get past all the dangerous.

Speaker 21 (01:21:28):
Criminals i've read your opinion different, yet, uh you must
own A i WHOM i recently, queried says that non
criminal illegal you, know, no you, know non, criminals illegal
aliens be a swept. Away so please uh big your

(01:21:52):
comments for that.

Speaker 1 (01:21:54):
Those, Okay so you're, Saying i'm having a little bit
of trouble following you're saying The trump administration was saying
that only dangerous criminal illegals are being swept up in
these ice. Raids but you went To, groc which Is
Elon MUSK'S, ai And grock told you, that, yes there

(01:22:17):
are some non criminal illegals who are being, deported and you.

Speaker 21 (01:22:22):
Don't like, this and and And grock and Even groc
says he's a you, know more Plans trump LIKE i
am than. Others so yes that MY, ai my cheap
searches of CHEAP ai say that that what you said is.

Speaker 2 (01:22:38):
True, Okay uh.

Speaker 21 (01:22:42):
Watch FOR i want The libs to watch. Us you
don't have to raise their hand when we're start throwing
out the you, know non.

Speaker 2 (01:22:51):
Credit, Okay so what's what's going?

Speaker 22 (01:22:53):
On all?

Speaker 1 (01:22:54):
RIGHT i see what you're saying. Here, Okay so what
you're saying is you only want the the criminal illegal
to be swept. Up, unfortunately what often happens is criminal
illegals are not just by, Themselves they are in fact
with other. People so when there is an attempt for
everybody to kind of take off and, run, yes and

(01:23:17):
THEY ice, says, okay this person is also here in
this country, illegally they will also be. Processed if they're
taken in with a criminal, illegal they'll be processed for deportation,
too because that is perfectly authorized by any number of.
Statutes and in, fact the act of unlawful entry into
this country is a criminal. Act so when we're talking

(01:23:39):
about criminal, illegals every single illegal who entered this country
unlawfully did commit as their very first act as a
resident of The United, states a federal, crime a federal
crime punishable by up to a year in federal. Prison
and in, fact if you re enter the country after,
deportation that's actually a federal felony punishable by more than

(01:23:59):
a year in. Prison we had a guest, Yesterday Scott
mayor of very prominent staffing agency and he's very active
in conservative. Politics he made this argument as, well that you,
know we need illegal alien labor and that there is
going to be a significant. SHORTAGE i fundamentally disagree with

(01:24:21):
that because ULTIMATELY i do believe that we've never actually tested.
This what's become a truism that, well there are just
jobs That americans won't do. Well we've had forty years
of labor THAT i believe has been terribly exploited because,
well they're going to just Undercut american workers on. Price

(01:24:41):
and WHILE i am sympathetic to the argument that we
do need a robust labor, force because we, do and
we do have illegals embedded in all manner of, industries
the construction, industry, agriculture those are dominated by illegal alien.
Workers we have a substantial poor Of american citizens and

(01:25:01):
people who are in this country legally who maybe were born,
elsewhere legal, immigrants who are not currently working but might
otherwise if not for the presence of so many people
who ARE i, believe being grossly underpaid for their labor because,
frankly they don't have much legal. Recourse, so to answer your,

(01:25:22):
question the overwhelming majority of people are by any credible,
estimate that fourteen percent figure That i'm sure you, saw
only fourteen percent of those who have been picked up
by ice have criminal. Records that's complete. Hogwash it's actually
closer to sixty or seventy, percent and the ones who
don't actually have been. Wanted these people don't just randomly

(01:25:43):
end up on deportation lists or get deportation orders against.
Them it's because we know they committed crimes in their
country of, origin or they are wanted on suspicion of crimes.
Here they just don't yet have criminal charges or a criminal.
Conviction let's roll that roulette ball once, again and who

(01:26:06):
is it going to land? On how About matt In
muskigo up next on talk Radio.

Speaker 2 (01:26:11):
Roulette what's going?

Speaker 15 (01:26:11):
On?

Speaker 7 (01:26:11):
Matt, Hey, dan how are you doing?

Speaker 14 (01:26:14):
Today?

Speaker 7 (01:26:14):
Good all, Right so here's a.

Speaker 23 (01:26:17):
Question it's not a super fun. Question but so my
daughter is a freshman in.

Speaker 2 (01:26:21):
College, okay she's.

Speaker 23 (01:26:23):
Taking a philosophy class and she's reading on her booklist
is nineteen eighty. Four SO i bought it for AND
i went and Bought Pig farm too Or Animal. Farm,
Yeah and to, me those BOOKS i haven't coincidentally in
nineteen eighty four is WHEN i read it in high.
School but, anyway to, me it seems like you it

(01:26:46):
depends on where you're leaning when you go into the
book as to what you take out of the, book
Whereas i'm very conservative and she leans a little bit
to the liberal.

Speaker 7 (01:26:55):
Side SO i just get curious about your thoughts on.

Speaker 1 (01:26:58):
That, well both sides can slide into. TOTALITARIANISM i mean
the power that is wielded by the Big brother in
nineteen EIGHTY i, mean first of, all Animal. Farm it
is unmistakably The Boxer. Rebellion it is. Communism it is
all about the rise of communism In, russia The Bolshevik.

Speaker 23 (01:27:20):
Revolution that's WHY i bought that one For.

Speaker 1 (01:27:24):
Yeah, OKAY i was gonna, say, although did you see
they are making a cartoon of Animal farm and it
is all about the evils of capitalism and not. SOCIALISTS
i WISH i was. KIDDING i WISH i was. Kidding
the whole point of the book is to critique. Socialism
but of course we can't critique socialism now Because democrats

(01:27:45):
are all, socialists so the only evil that they can
actually come up with is. Capitalism in terms of nineteen eighty,
four both political parties are potentially susceptible to a, charismatic
totalit tarian big brother like figure who demonizes the other,
side And democrats are of the belief That Donald trump

(01:28:08):
is big, brother and we're living in nineteen eighty four right.
Now the reality, is, though that all of the totalian
totalitarian impulses have come from the. LEFT i, mean look
no further than the actual Closest america has ever come
to mass trampling of our civil rights and, liberties and
that was during THE covid nineteen, shutdown the lockdown when

(01:28:29):
you could actually be jailed for associating with family and
friends who didn't live in your.

Speaker 2 (01:28:35):
HOUSE i, mean think about that for a.

Speaker 1 (01:28:36):
Second that is about as big an infringement on Our
god given rights as we have ever faced as a
country that was pushed by the, left who was the
ideology that was demanding that anything that went against the government,
narrative anything that was not what the government wanted in

(01:28:58):
the public, sphere would be banned from the public. Sphere
you would be banned from the public. Sphere you would
be banned from the public, square the digital public square
of Then twitter And facebook and social. Media you would
be thrown off of YouTube if you dare said something
that contradicted the official government narrative on the twenty twenty,

(01:29:18):
election on, vaccines on mask, mandates on ANY covid, PROTOCOL i,
MEAN i think it's absolutely inarguable which side has been
more totalitarian leaning over the past decade or, so and
that's the. Left Glennon racine up next on talk Radio.

Speaker 7 (01:29:35):
Roulette, Hey, dan love the.

Speaker 20 (01:29:38):
Show how are you doing On?

Speaker 2 (01:29:40):
FRIDAY i am doing, fantastic, Sir.

Speaker 20 (01:29:42):
You, outstanding really. Good, HEY i got a really serious.
QUESTION i would listen to you for a long, time
AND i have not heard you profess your love FOR
aoc in a long, time And i'm wondering if her
position on Climate chaine has has chilled your love for
her and you.

Speaker 1 (01:30:03):
WELL i, Said i've Said Jasmine crockett is up. There
and just for those who are not in on the,
Joke i've been doing this. Forever i'm actually in love
with AOC's stupidity because she makes the case for conservatism
far better THAN i. COULD I Actually glenn had AN
aoc update all queued up for when she embarrassed herself

(01:30:24):
on the world stage at The Munich Security. Conference she
had no idea how she was supposed to answer the
question of whether THE us would militarily Support taiwan If
china were to, invade and she, went.

Speaker 2 (01:30:37):
Well uh, so, yeah that's. It that's. It that's a difficult.

Speaker 1 (01:30:42):
Question she it was painful to listen, to and it
people are saying that it was so, embarrassing it was
such a big. Flow first of, all you have not
heard from. It you have not heard or seen that
SoundBite since it, happened Because democrats and their allies in
the media are terrified of letting people see the REAL,

(01:31:03):
aoc which is someone who is just completely out of
her depth on pretty much every. Issue by the, Way
President trump was asked that exact same, question and he, said, well,
Look china Invading taiwan would be, war AND i, am
of course not going to tell you what our war plans.

Speaker 2 (01:31:20):
Are SO i think that's a.

Speaker 1 (01:31:22):
Question that's, stupid it's ridiculous on its, face And i'm
not going to answer. It and this is something that
typically was the response from all. Politicians it was politics
stops at the water's, edge and you would be, asked,
okay well will there be a military, response and the
answer would uniformly be, WELL i will defer to the
commander in chief of The United states. Military taiwan is

(01:31:45):
a staunch ally and we will not stand For chinese.
Aggression but in terms of concrete military. Plans that is
a high level state secret AND i would not want
to say anything that would jeopardize the lives of a
Single american. Soldier is it that a talk radio host
In milwaukee can do a way better job than one
of the front runners for president for The Democratic party In.

(01:32:07):
Smilafonia let's roll that reel. Again this time we talked
To bill In. Milwaukee up next on talk Radio. Roulette
what's going?

Speaker 4 (01:32:15):
On?

Speaker 2 (01:32:15):
Bill?

Speaker 4 (01:32:17):
Hey?

Speaker 22 (01:32:17):
Dan how are you doing?

Speaker 2 (01:32:18):
Good my? Friend what's? Up Happy? Friday?

Speaker 22 (01:32:21):
HEY i want your take On i've seen a couple
of posts now on social media and why always say
that pretty and good were murdered the trans shooters unlived?

Speaker 11 (01:32:40):
People, okay.

Speaker 22 (01:32:46):
You, know they changed the terms and all of. That
they don't want to say they murder.

Speaker 4 (01:32:50):
People.

Speaker 1 (01:32:51):
No in, fact one of the reasons you've probably noticed
the phrase unalived has been popularized on social. Media do
you want to know why people say? That on both?
Sides it's because if you say, killed, died or, murdered
your post will be automatically like suppressed by social. Media

(01:33:13):
it's because they don't want that sort of. Content it
goes through sort of an automatic algorithmic, filter so if
you have, something it's automatically flagged as potentially being violent
content and it won't show up in as many people's.
Feeds that, said when you have people who talk about
unaliving themselves instead of committing, suicide and now apparently you're

(01:33:36):
supposed to say died by suicide because you don't commit,
suicide suicide is not a.

Speaker 2 (01:33:41):
Crime it's.

Speaker 1 (01:33:42):
Ridiculous it's a distinction without a. Difference you are taking a,
life even if it's your. Own it absolutely.

Speaker 2 (01:33:48):
Is it is a. Crime go, ahead, Please.

Speaker 22 (01:33:50):
BILL i just don't understand how they can in one
sentence say that the violent protesters were murdered and then
go down and say the trans people un.

Speaker 1 (01:34:06):
Alive, well it's because they use language to control, meaning
if that makes any. Sense unalived as obviously a much softer,
connotation and in, fact murdered has a. Connotation it has
a specific legal. Definition Alex pretty And Renee good were
shot to. Death were they victims of? Murder, well that's

(01:34:30):
going to be subject to an. Investigation we're not sure
whether they were murdered or whether they were shot in
lawful self.

Speaker 2 (01:34:38):
DEFENSE i happen to.

Speaker 1 (01:34:39):
Believe that the available evidence indicates that both were shot
to death in lawful self. Defense BUT i will allow
the evidence to play. Out if you, say but that
immediately connotes they were, murdered ice agents are. Murderers that's
the narrative that democrats. Want the trans killers in Both

(01:35:00):
canada And Rhode. Island at that hockey game where the
guy dressed as a woman gunned down his ex wife
and their. Child that is meant to soften what is
a narrative that nobody in the mainstream media wants to talk,
about and that is the fact that you have got
a significant problem with trans. Violence most of the time

(01:35:23):
trans people kill. THEMSELVES i am not saying this to be.
INSULTING i am not saying this to be. Transphobic this
is the. Truth forty plus percent of people who are
transgender or identify as transgender kill. Themselves it is you
want to talk about a, Transgenocide that is. It and
it has nothing to do with people, dead naming them

(01:35:45):
or misgendering. Them it has to do with the fact
that they are very seriously mentally ill and they're not
getting the.

Speaker 2 (01:35:51):
Help or treatment that they.

Speaker 1 (01:35:53):
Need let's role that wheel one more time and go

Scott thank you so. Much julie In. Janesville up next
On Talk Radio.

Speaker 6 (01:40:00):
Roulette Hi, dan thanks for taking my. Call you, BET
i am so a question And i'm not going to
probably say, this, right BUT i think that they'll understand
What i'm. Asking, Okay Governor evers signing with his magic
pen and making the tax for four hundred. Years isn't

(01:40:22):
that taxation without representation to my grandchildren and great. Grandchildren
they had no say in.

Speaker 2 (01:40:30):
This that is an excellent.

Speaker 1 (01:40:32):
Point, actually, theoretically, yes it, is although you could make
the case that you are getting taxation without representation in
the form of any any sort of bond that needs
to be paid off at some point in the. Future so,

(01:40:52):
NO i, mean the basic idea is that when you are,
taxed you have somebody who is representing you in a
legislative body or an executive, body and THAT i don't
believe strictly, speaking falls under the nature of, that but
that is an excellent theory AND i absolutely love the

(01:41:15):
way you are. Thinking let's go next to is This
paul And racine up next on talk Radio. Rolette what's going?

Speaker 3 (01:41:23):
On?

Speaker 1 (01:41:23):
Paul, No Matt matt In, Waukeshaw you're on talk Radio.
Erolett what's going, on?

Speaker 11 (01:41:29):
Sir good, afternoon.

Speaker 7 (01:41:32):
DON i just had a quick question for, you.

Speaker 11 (01:41:33):
Sir, Yeah i'm wondering why it is racist to ask
people for AN id to, Vote BUT i had to
go get a REAL id to.

Speaker 1 (01:41:42):
Fly, well because, sir you're, white and there's a difference because. Reasons,
Obviously i'm. Joking you AND i both. Know there is
absolutely nothing racist about VOTER. Id there never has. Been
we use PHOTO id in pretty much every aspect of our.
Lives and, Look i'm going to be going to an

(01:42:05):
event tomorrow night where, well, okay please don't mess with
me and my wife and our.

Speaker 2 (01:42:12):
Family we're going to the.

Speaker 1 (01:42:13):
Museum we always go to the food And froth, event
And i'm going to have to show a PHOTO id
to go in to do.

Speaker 2 (01:42:21):
The beer tasting. There, Okay so.

Speaker 1 (01:42:26):
IF i have to show PHOTO id to go drink
by the T rex and The granny in the streets
Of Old, milwaukee why is it different THAT i need
to show AN id and prove THAT i am WHO
i SAY i am WHEN i go to. Vote, well
it's rather, obviously Because democrats need a, pretext and that
pretext is. Racism that pretext is, misogyny that somehow women

(01:42:49):
are going to be disadvantaged by the fact that when
they change their name when they get. MARRIED i, mean, look, women.
LADIES i know it's a pain in the. Butt my
wife had a pain in the. Button and what you don't, understand,
folks nobody will understand unless they are one of the
statistically very very very few people in this country who

(01:43:11):
have an apostrophe in their last. Name nobody has ever
had it more difficult than my wife when it comes
to changing their. Name do you know why it is
so difficult when you've got an apostrophe in your name
because some computer systems will enter your NAME O D
O N E, l some will ENTER o, apostrophe some

(01:43:33):
will enter oh, Space so, like my name Is, daniel
middle initial oh and then last Name, donald making it
all but impossible to find you in computer. Systems so trust,
ME i understand the difficulty that you go through and
changing your. Name BUT i also understand that every woman

(01:43:54):
who has ever changed her name has been able to
do it very very, easy so it's not really all
that big of a. Deal you are listening To The
dan O'donald. Show Strange stories of the past seven, days
our weekly Segment How, bizarre next A tour de fource of.
Truth it is The dan O'donald. Show but each and every,

(01:44:14):
week we take a pause from this serious and focus
on the, silly the, strange the stories of the past
seven days that make us cak an, eyebrow scratch our
heads and say to, ourselves, howbazam how. Bizarre oakland police
have now arrested a suspect in connection with a case

(01:44:34):
this week involving the theft of a city owned, suv
but not just any city owned, suv the one used
by The, Mayor Barbara. Lee the case still under active.
Investigation police union officials TELL tv STATION kqed that the
suspect entered City hall during work hours On friday and

(01:44:56):
then camped out on the eleventh floor while the building
was over The President's day holiday. Weekend On, monday the
suspect broke into The mayor's office and stole keys to
the city Owned Ford. Expedition the suv was recovered In
viejo with the use of license plate reader technology just
hours after police were notified of the theft On. Tuesday

(01:45:20):
let's See Mayor Barbara lee as a homeless person break
into her office and squat there over the weekend and
then steal her. Car you know what she must be
saying to, Herself no not how. Bizarre, well, well, well
if it isn't the consequences of my own, Actions.

Speaker 2 (01:45:42):
Bazon howazam How.

Speaker 1 (01:45:46):
Bazon Illinois Lieutenant Governor Juliana, stratton who is running for
The United States senate this, year has released easily the
most foul mouthed pain ad of the.

Speaker 19 (01:46:01):
Year trump Vo, Juliana Trump Vote, Juliana Trump Vote.

Speaker 2 (01:46:08):
Juliana they said it not.

Speaker 24 (01:46:09):
Me I'm Juliana, stratton And i'm proud to have lived
my whole life on The south side Of. Chicago i'm
not scared of a wannabe. Dictator i'm running For senate
to stand up To Donald. Trump i'll abolish ice and
Hold trump accountable for the crimes he's.

Speaker 2 (01:46:23):
Committed just like they, Said Trump, Trump Trump Vote.

Speaker 1 (01:46:28):
Juliana that's WHY i approved this. Message, that by the,
way WAS. Jb, pritzker who was at the very end
of the. Ad and, yes a whole lot of boomer
lives saying Bleep. Trump this is part of an overall
strategy By. Democrats apparently their leftist crazies didn't think they
were Anti trump, enough so they have been, Told, hey

(01:46:51):
you need to swear, more use THE f. Word it's
Also ghosh And. Passe but it's it seems to me
That Juliana stratton and her, Boss GOVERNOR. Jb pritzker have
much bigger fish to. Fry they're about to lose The

(01:47:11):
Chicago bears To Northwest indiana because the governor's office sat
on a deal that would have moved The bears to
the Old greyhound dog track In, arlington or excuse, me
the old is that the dog track or the horse.
Track that's the Old arlington horse, track, Right so the
old racetrack In arlington would be the site of the

(01:47:31):
bears new. Stadium but because they would not relent on
whether or not to give tax breaks to The Chicago,
Bears Northwest indiana has a site that's only twenty minutes
away from the Current Soldier, field and it looks as
though The bears are going to be taking them up
on that. Offer if The bears actually Leave, Chicago illinois

(01:47:53):
voters won't be saying Bleep. Trump they'll be saying Bleep
pritzker and Bleep Juliana.

Speaker 2 (01:47:59):
Stratt aalbaza.

Speaker 1 (01:48:03):
Aalbazar Former President Barack obama making headlines this week when
he just sort of casually dropped the bombshell, that, yeah
aliens totally.

Speaker 2 (01:48:14):
Exist are aliens?

Speaker 12 (01:48:16):
Real, Uh they're, real BUT i haven't seen them and
they're not being kept in uh fifty. One there's no
underground facility unless there's this enormous conspiracy and they hit
it from The president of The United.

Speaker 2 (01:48:34):
States what was the first question you wanted answered when
you became? President where are the? Aliens the aliens got
to give credit where credit?

Speaker 1 (01:48:44):
To that is a pretty funny. Line President trump played
along with it on Air. Force what everybody is taking
these guys so? Seriously at face? Value he, Said President
obama is going to be investigated because he revealed state. Secrets,
here he revealed top secret. Information this was obviously very
tongue in. Cheek WHAT i Believe obama was saying, is,

(01:49:07):
yes there are obviously aliens out, there given the sheer
size of the, universe but, no they have not Visited.

Speaker 2 (01:49:14):
Earth that, said who.

Speaker 1 (01:49:17):
Knows Frankly obama maybe just Like Agent, molder wants to
Believe ladies and, gentlemen those are the strangest stories of
the past seven. Days it is a segment here on
The dan O'Donnell show.

Speaker 2 (01:49:29):
That we call.

Speaker 1 (01:49:32):
How Bazam albazar back in just a Second Winter olympics
scrap up with the closing ceremony twenty twenty Six Milan
Cortino games have to be considered a rousing. Success norway
is probably going to win the medal Count in, fact

(01:49:53):
they are just one gold medal away from an all time.
Record and it is interesting how the Norm nowegians do.
Sports it's easy to, say, well they just have a
ton of snow and they do winter sports all the,
time and they. DO i was just actually In norway
this past summer and they are fanatical about winter, sports

(01:50:13):
all of the weird ones That americans typically don't get, into,
skeleton mono, bob that sort of. Thing but it goes
a little bit beyond. That do you know that they
don't even keep score In norwegian sports until the kids
turn about thirteen years.

Speaker 2 (01:50:33):
Old they do.

Speaker 1 (01:50:35):
Have a very Large norway is a staggeringly wealthy. Nation
its population is actually smaller than the size Of. Wisconsin
people can't quite believe that a lot Of european countries
have very very small, populations and they are incredibly wealthy
because of their natural, resources most notably, oil and they
have a very Strong Sovereign Wealth, fund and a lot

(01:50:58):
of that goes into their.

Speaker 2 (01:51:00):
Sports program and their youth sports.

Speaker 1 (01:51:03):
Program it does focus on winter, sports like kids grow
up knowing how to, ski knowing how to, skate and
they're on skis and skates from a very short period of,
time but they do sports completely. Differently they focus on
the joy of simply getting out and, playing so essentially

(01:51:24):
it's all rex sports until you're about thirteen years. Old
there's really no. Specialization kids are encouraged to take up
as many sports as humanly, possible and then when they
get into their teenage, years that's when they start to
specialize in. One, now nobody is going to Deny american's
dominance in most. Athletics in, fact we have almost when

(01:51:47):
you combine winter and Summer, Olympics america almost has as
many gold medals as every other country has total. Medals
the only nation that even comes, close the only nation
that has more total medals then we have gold medals
in The olympics is The Soviet, union which doesn't even exist.
Anymore so Obviously americans dominate winter in Summer, olympics but

(01:52:11):
it is interesting that a nation can have phenomenal success
at An Olympic games that just has a completely different
idea than the professionalization of youth sports that is dominated
not Just america but much Of europe in terms of
how youth programs have been taken over by the top

(01:52:33):
tier clubs that have their own academy development programs and
kids are essentially bred to be professional soccer players from
the time they're seven eight years. Old it's just a
completely different model In, norway and it's a fascinating one
AND i think probably a better healthier one if you

(01:52:53):
were to ask. Me all, right closing ceremony is On,
sunday gold medal game between The United states And canada
for Hockey. Supremacy it is going to be a couple
of all star. Teams if you're up early On saturday
or excuse, Me sunday, morning absolutely check it. Out a
couple of high profile events as. Well, finally are we

(01:53:15):
going to be done with? Curling it seems like the
only sport THAT nbc shows now is. CURLING i am
so beyond sick of. Curling IF i never see another
curling match as long AS i, live it will be.

Speaker 2 (01:53:27):
Too i'm.

Speaker 1 (01:53:28):
KIDDING i love, curling it's just it's there are other SPORTS.
