Speaker 1 (00:30):
God bless you for letting us be of service to you.
You know this radio program. Our business model is we'll
tell you what went on. Oh yeah, we'll tell you
what happened. Then we will tell you what we analyze
from the evidence that made it back to the locker.
And after that, I want to hear how it's impacting
you where you are. The singular most local part of
(00:54):
this radio station is you. That's so sad. I'm weird
in saying that, but it's true. And so how is
it hitting you where you live? Email to that from
last week? Joe, I hadn't thought about the cost of
food still being driven by the cost of fertilizer. I
(01:16):
asked some friends, and they said the problem with farming
costs is that we're still paying for stuff that happened
last year, or we're paying for things that might happen
next year. And you're never paying directly for what something costs. Well,
it's any commodity, Sharon, is that is that you're always
(01:43):
either paying back for what has the cost been last year,
or you're paying in advance for what the costs are
going to be coming up for you. We are ready
to We were joking about packing up our twenty twenty
five stuff and getting ready for new digs in twenty
twenty six. I mean, that's just tongue in cheek. We're
(02:03):
not actually moving anywhere. Just got to write new numbers
on our checks. If you still write those things. And
one of the things we're going to be doing this
time next week, we're going to be live from Las
Vegas for the Consumer Electronics Show, and we're going to
try to bring you all the flavor of all the
AI fraud watchers and all the different ways you can
(02:25):
watch out for that, the cybersecurity people, the Internet of things,
some of the neat stuff that you know you can
use the tools and those sorts of things and still
taking you know, still have opportunities for folks. Although it's
been fascinating to me how the tech business really doesn't
want to market to you as a listener of the
(02:48):
radio program. They would rather cut deals with the people
who are supplying you with the stuff that I guess
you're supposed to be supplied with. Oh, we have a
deal with the phone company and we'll put your security
we don't need. And maybe that's part of the problem
with the technology world is none of them deal direct
to consumer, or if they do, there are few and
(03:09):
far between of those companies that do the d what
do they call it, DTC marketing. Wouldn't it be easy?
You know, I want this kind of cybersecurity. I'm sorry,
you bought this laptop and it comes pre wired with
the other kind and you can't take it out because
if you take it out, there goes There goes your laptop.
(03:32):
Thanks for playing, but I don't want this kind of security.
Well that's you get what you get the other laptop
costs more, or the other technology. These are all the
things that you know, consumers in the world of technology
have almost been gasled into. And it's one of the
things we're going to cover next week while we're at
(03:52):
the Consumer Electronics show for you you're dining and dancing
pleasure plus the data centers and all that coming up
for you and like I said, emails JT in the
Morning Radio at gmail dot com. If you have a
business that you think would like to stand out amongst
all the other folks who kind of just do the
B to B backdoor into people's technology, we'd love to
(04:16):
hear from you. President Donald Trump is scheduled to meet
with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin nettan Yahoo today as they
look to get more momentum in moving forward into the
next phases of the ceasefire in Gaza. Progress has slowed recently,
both sides accused one another of violations, and divisions are
(04:36):
emerging among US, Israel and Arab countries, driven mostly by
media arguments that it isn't what they were promised. A
winter storm bearing down on the Upper Midwest for today snow, ice,
and rain. For those who have ever lived on the
Great Lakes, hearing the potential of one foot of snow
(04:56):
makes you think, oh, we're not even going to close
school for that. It could be very very serious, including
windshills sub zero. President Trumps Sunday insisted Ukraine and Russia
are closer than ever before to a peace steal, as
he hosted Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelenski in marri Lago. He said,
in the midst of his meeting with Zelenski, he took
(05:20):
a two and a half hour phone conversation with Russian
President Vladimir Putin, adding to the mix that Russia says
they want to see Ukraine succeed in their rebuilding process
and would contribute lower cost energy and infrastructure support. Minnesota
Governor Tim Wall says, Oh, we've got this covered. We
(05:40):
got this fraud stuff figured out. No, and we've already
closed some of those daycare centers, he said. The spokesman
person for the governor says that he's strengthened oversight in
his administration and several of those facilities are already closed,
meaning the ones you see in the Nick Shirley videos
on social media. Meanwhile, the FBI says we'll see about that,
(06:04):
as they've deployed personnel into Minnesota to quote dismantle large
scale fraud schemes. China's military is saber rattling this morning
as air, navy, and rocket troops conduct joint military drills
around Taiwan. Beijing not being coy about it, saying it's
a stern warning against external interference in the relations between
(06:28):
the two nations. Silicon Valley's wealthiest tech billionaires are once
again being the target of Gavin Newsom's administration. This time,
a state wealth tax will be on the ballot in
November that could hit one time five percent tax on
assets of California residents worth more than one billion dollars.

Did you know that healthy arteries make a gas? Yes,
actually three known gas is I'm doctor Mitch, and nitric
oxide is a gas that's readily made all day long
to keep our arteries open by relaxing the blood vessel walls.

(08:28):
and nutrients to every part of your body. Both age
and poor diet can lead to a loss of this
precious gas, and in turn, blood pressure can go up,
energy can go down, and you can get tingling in

Every year, more American adults die from vaccine preventable diseases
than from breast cancer, traffic accidents, or AIDS. Vaccines like
the one for new macccle disease can protect adults from
illnesses that can cause mistays of work, hospitalization, and even death.
New macaccle disease is an infection that can lead to pneumonia, meningitis,
or even a severe blood infection. That's just one example
(09:56):
of an infection that can spread from person to person.
Getting vaccinated can help protect you and those close to you.
I'm doctor Susan Reem of the National Foundation for Infectious Diseases.
When I speak with my patients, I urge them to
get all their recommended vaccines. Now, I'm urging you to
speak with your doctor to find out which vaccines you need.

Speaker 2 (13:09):
The First Thing Today by Joe Thomas on the Talk
media network.
Speaker 1 (13:30):
Amy into that's all fired up this morning as we
wind down on the twenty six. We were talking last hour.
It looked like you got an opportunity there. We spoke
too soon. I might have jinxed it. James Luncke is
on the phone with us from jcsgold dot com with details,
(13:51):
But it looked like there's a buying opportunity in the
breakneck pace of silver to continue to set records. How
you doing this Monday morning, James.
Speaker 17 (14:01):
I'm Bill Well Joel, and it looks like it's going
to be a busy start to the week, of course,
because people have taken advantage since the silver price opened
at six six thirty last night and was at record
highs above eighty dollars an ounce, it has dropped from
there to seventy five dollars and fifty six cents, and.
Speaker 18 (14:23):
People have been buying the dip for sure and buying
silver from our website jcschold dot com for underspot, and
they've been taking advantage of this dip. Here gold is
also dipping down one and a half percent, down sixty
six dollars to four four hundred and sixty five dollars,
So we will see where both medialsts find the support,
(14:46):
but in the meantime, take advantage of these discounts.
Speaker 1 (14:49):
Yeah, definitely get with it and some neat ways to
do it as well at jcsgold dot com. The silver Eagles,
I guess there'll be a new design for twenty twenty six.
So if you haven't picked up the twenty twenty five yet,
still a few there, James get twenty twenty five silver Eagles.
Speaker 18 (15:07):
Yeah, just a few. I have to check so far
this morning because there's a chance that this could have
been sold out fair enough in the past hour or so.
But we do have backdate silver eagles that are at
spot on our website, which have been a hot item
here over the past couple of weeks, and even more
so here with this little dropping price. But relatively speaking,
(15:30):
we're seventy five dollars is pretty much where we were at,
you know, near the end of last week, you know,
in the morning, So the price doesn't feel too different
from where it was last week here in seventy five.
Speaker 2 (15:43):
So we'll see where it goes from here.
Speaker 1 (15:46):
You just got us all excited on Friday and when
it was scratching seventy nine and we're like, what so anyway, James,
four generations of family that do want to help you
navigate the tumultuous waters. Gold and Silver, whatever year it
is at jcsgold dot com callum at four three four
(16:06):
nine to seventy nine coin and you have a great morning, James.
Thanks Joey too, JCS goold dot com. We've been talking
about the grift and the drift here and great. A
text message came in warning warning all of us that
we're going to get screwed for this, that we all
(16:26):
think it's fun in games. This Kareem writes in this
should be a concern for anyone exposing grifts like the
Somali daycare. The muckrackers are being exposed to legal action.
Mark Rendaza reporting media lawyers are on the phone with
non government organizations gearing up to go after YouTubers that
(16:51):
expose fraud. Find insurance if you care, if you can,
how you suggest at link lawyer is a good option.
Also at Walter's log Group or daniel A. Horowitz or
at Ron Holt. I don't know any of these lawyers.
I know that I found out in the past year
(17:12):
what it means to have a media lawyer because generally speaking,
that's what you need because there are going to be
people saying, you know that, well you you shouldn't have
had this. And this goes back kareem to what we
were talking about with the licensing of journalists. But Joel
is hanging along with us on the subject of all
(17:34):
the grift in Minneapolis. I don't you want to come
after me, great, just make sure you spell my name
right in the press.
Speaker 19 (17:42):
To Joe, I'm just mentioning this because government is government's
pretty big, right, and and our population is what like
three hundred.
Speaker 1 (17:50):
And thirty million something? Yeah, I mean no, I'm.
Speaker 19 (17:54):
Sorry, but but where you know, we had those investigating,
we have the FBI, we have NSA, we have the CIA,
we have all kinds of groups. But what you know,
what we've gone through has had corruption within or as
I was saying in New York City, you have police
(18:14):
that just got that they're corrupt, that they walk by
it because it's all over the place.
Speaker 16 (18:20):
What are they going to do?
Speaker 19 (18:21):
I mean, it's just and a lot of those people
are illegal aliens, and so I mean the bigger picture
is how do you clean it up?
Speaker 1 (18:30):
Well? And part of the how do you clean it
up comes down to stopping doing it in the first place.
The the and it sounds mean. And this is where
you have to have the intestical fortitude to do the
right thing for the right reason right now, and tell
people to go to your local churches and to go
to your local you know, boys and girls clubs and
(18:52):
things like that to look for the help. And we
as a moral society. This goes back to the old
Adams statement. We need to be a moral society because
the government has to step in when we stop stepping up.
And if we decide I want to help somebody and
they the answer has too frequently become well, i'll vote
(19:16):
for so and so for Senate and they'll help the
people I want to help. This is how you wind
up with Saturday, we were talking about this Nick Shirley
video and these these mysterious postmenopausal Caucasian women that seem
to show up at all of these instances with cell
phone cameras in hand, prepped up by lawyers as to
(19:39):
what to say to keep themselves out of any verifiable trouble.
Yet there they are, and they will show up, and
they're wearing their Black Lives Matter, you know t shirts
and their Burka's despite being you know, an old irishwoman
and they you know, oh I'm showing my solidarity. Okay,
how about you actually help somebody? How about you hire
(20:00):
there is somebody, how about you give.
Speaker 2 (20:01):
Them a job.
Speaker 1 (20:02):
How about you you help them become a citizen rather
than just engendering the fraud, which is what the middle
people are, uh in government. I mean, if you have a.
Speaker 19 (20:14):
Leak and a pipe, right, and it keeps dripping, that
water bill is going to be big by the end
of the year. If you don't know about the leak.
Speaker 1 (20:21):
Right, that's true. That's true, and that's true medically as well.
I've got to run, Joel. You have a great morning, sir.
You two snug that one by y'all, didn't I four
three four eight A two four two one seven. I
don't know, doctor. My pipe's leak in there. You know,
it's like an old car. Just like an old car,
(20:42):
you know, the motors were confined. We just leak a
little bit more here and there. And that's just the
price of doing business. Emails come into JT in the morning,
radio Gmail dot com. Uh Andy texts into four three
four eight A two four two one seven reminds me
of the Acorn film that James O'Keefe did, is one
(21:02):
of his earliest when he went into Acorn, Remember it
was an American coalition of I forget what a corn,
but Acorn was one of those quote quasi grassroots, quasi
non government quangos that was going around there using government money,
(21:25):
applying for government grants, getting US grants, and then going
out and doing leftist work after laundering it through. And
then then Acorn sort of predates Act Blue Act Blue
as the old campaign apparatus fundraising apparatus of the Obama
campaign Change for America, and they realized that if you
(21:50):
gave money to Act Blue, you could do whatever you wanted,
and then Act Blue gave the money to the candidates,
so it kind of circumvented campaign finance laws.
Speaker 20 (22:01):
Hey, Brandt, and her name is shay I Love. She's
a friend of mine whom we were just praying for
because of a surgery.
Speaker 1 (22:08):
She just went through.
Speaker 21 (22:09):
Yes, and I am very happy about something you actually
talk about all the time, which is meta share.
Speaker 20 (22:14):
That is right, Yeah, So what was your experience like
with meta share and health care ability?
Speaker 21 (22:18):
Honestly, Brandt seamless and what a blessing. That is when
you're already nervous about a health issue, which I was.
Members shared my expenses. There were zero problems. And let
me tell you, having people pray with you when you
call in with your need, that is just refreshing. Yes,
that's what it is.
Speaker 20 (22:35):
I keep telling people. People love meda share and they
love saving money. The typical family can save five hundred
dollars a month.
Speaker 21 (22:42):
I am very thankful for Meta Share. It is so different,
and I mean different in a very very good way.

Artificial intelligence is everywhere, and now it's helping veterinarians deliver
better care for pets. From AI assisted radiographs that speed
up diagnoses to tools that help spot diseases, AI supports
veterinary teams in exciting ways.

We're using AI to develop.
Speaker 23 (23:25):
Personalized cancer treatments, predict chronic conditions like feline kidney disease
and even streamline record keeping so veterinarians can focus more
on patients. But, as with any new technology, always keep
a human in the loop to maintain the best pet healthcare.
AI is a powerful tool, but not a replacement for

run journalism through a program of licensure. And this this
ties together last week's depiction of Brendan carr Is Crampis
in our Christmas parable if Donald Trump is Santa Claus,
(28:56):
Brendan carr Is Crampus and worse than that. Brendan Carr
is no different than all the other ones. The difference
is his boss wants to punish people who have tried
to make it impossible for him to win the presidency.
Does that deny that the folks like Jimmy Kimmel and
(29:18):
all these folks have it in for Donald Trump? No,
not at all. The hypocrisy is they all love Donald
Trump when he helped them score ratings, but once he
became president, the people who are paying their bills were like,
oh no, we're gonna lose money. And all of this
(29:41):
is based around we're going to lose money. So the
Orange Man has to be done in because he is
costing us money. I'd love to say it is any
deeper than that. I'd love to tell you that there's
all this high drama the people carrying, but I can't
(30:03):
do that for you. So let's unpack some of this
coming up. But first we got a couple of things
to lay in there. First thing today Sports Storycter Mac
McDonald tell us what you're working on in Sports this morning.
Speaker 27 (30:16):
Match, Good morning, Joe, Welcome to Monday. Here are the
stories we are tracking. The Patriots dragged May through for
five touchdowns in New England grounded the Jets forty two
to ten. The Pats won the AFC East for the
first time in six years after the Bills were beaten
by Philly. The Bills comeback fell short with a blocked
extra point and a miss two point conversion that final
thirteen to twelve. With Seattle's twenty seven to ten. Very
(30:39):
October Carolina, the Panthers missed an opportunity to clinch the
NFC South, combined with the Dolphins, went over Tampa Bay.
The Bucks and Panthers play next week for the division
and loan playoff spot. Jacksonville down the Colts twenty three
to seventeen. The Jags now are one went away from.
Speaker 1 (30:57):
The AFC crown. He'll be back at seven thirty. It
open his reporter's notebook for us in detail, and now
it's time to take a look at what's going on
in business. Jared James Luck say, if you go to
jcsgold dot com, you'll see Silver's cracked back down almost
(31:21):
four dollars announced since yesterday seventy five dollars sixty seven cents.
Certainly a breaknet position, but lower than it was, say Friday,
seventy three dollars dip in gold as well as it
goes on sale a little bit this morning forty four
fifty nine and sixty three cents. Asian shares down this
(31:42):
morning as China starts to saber rattle around Taiwan this morning,
Stocks in general and the New York Stock Exchange closing
a quieter in post Christmas trading. However, the American consumer
activity led to the biggest GDP growth in over two years,
(32:03):
four point eight percent for Q three. Student loan borrowers
aren't going to get hit with garnishments on January seventh.
They'll be hit with letters saying we're coming for you.
If you don't fix this, you'll be given a month
to do what you need to do to get right
with the federal student loan agencies. And millennials are starting
(32:26):
to find digital. Pardon me analog islands as we head
out to the Consumer Electronics Show to broadcast next week.
Digital life has led to people trying to find the
non digital in their world, including an uptick and automobile
manufacturer's sale of manual transmission vehicles. The interest in that
(32:51):
going up so last segment, Kareem sent me a link
to this. It was Rendaza, a guy and his warning
that government non government agencies quasi non government agencies are
being ramped up by the media companies to go after
(33:16):
these YouTubers who are out there just oh, I don't know,
doing their job for them, and I get it, I
get it. Rather than compete, just sue yourself to dominance.
It's a business plan. You can't argue. It's immoral and
your soul is going to shrivel and die on the vine.
(33:36):
But other than that, I mean, you rock on with
your bad self. But this goes back to Barack Obama
suggesting that federal protections, protections against sources and free speech
protections for journalists should only convey if they were in
possession of a government license. That's all fun and games
(33:58):
when it's Barack Obama, when it's Brendan Carr saying, we'll
go after you if you don't say the things the
government wants you to say, and if you're not good
to Donald Trump will come after you. And I understand
that the media was overwhelmingly biased against Donald Trump three times,
(34:27):
but the license culture is going to be the death
of us. You can only make a computer if you've
got a US government license. You can only make a
smartphone if you if you have a US government license.
What is the record of the US government when it
comes to that kind of investiture. We were talking about
(34:47):
the failings of the bureaucratic aid industry and the grift
that it promotes, especially amongst that twenty percent of the
bureaucracy whose only it seems to be is to perpetrate
the bureaucracy itself. These are the people who create the
(35:09):
American government is the same as America narrative. These are
the people who if you voted against Hillary, you were
voting against America because Hillary is in our family in America,
and the bureaucracy is America, and we created it and
it's ours and it's America. And if you're engaging in
(35:32):
Unamerican activities if you question the government, these are the
same alien insedition laws that caused Thomas Jefferson, also of Charlottesville,
like this program, to run for president in the first place,
as he watched these laws that started to say questioning
the government was the same thing as questioning the country.
(35:59):
And I know it's a sliced, very thin piece of boloney,
but it's different. It is different.
Speaker 5 (36:09):
And so.
Speaker 1 (36:11):
The media companies want Brendan Carr going after people like
Nick Shirley. This program people who aren't part of the club,
who haven't paid their dues to the agency, and we
have to stop it. And the fact that Donald Trump
(36:33):
is doing it a is understandable, but he needs to
be woken up to it because I don't believe he's
realizing the the exponential effects. But it is only just
an offshoot of the licensed culture. It's how they shut
(36:53):
down all of our businesses during COVID. They had no
authority to shut down our business, nor did they have
enough police officers to stand in everybody's storefront. But they
could say, well, we'll take away your license to operate,
then we'll arrest you for operating a business without a license.
You see how the setup happens, and the big guys
(37:19):
can afford it. This is how we centralize business. It's
just like this moratorium that's been suggested by our own
Congressman John McGuire on the capital gains tax. If you
can increase home ownership by eliminating capital gains tax for
a little while, you think of what you can do
(37:39):
if you can eliminate it overall. As Ben Franklin said
years ago, if you want less of something, tax it,
or as Reagan said, if something moves in Washington, we
tax it, and when it stops moving, we subsidize it.
Speaker 20 (38:01):
Life can change so abruptly.
Speaker 2 (38:04):
Just ask Paul.
Speaker 20 (38:05):
He's a hardworking entrepreneur, he's young, he's got a young family. Suddenly, though,
he develops a rare medical condition where he lost the
use of both of his arms.
Speaker 12 (38:14):
I could no longer drive a car, couldn't use a computer, type,
couldn't use a mouse. I could not hold my son,
who was about a month old.
Speaker 20 (38:20):
Paul and his family were facing a mountain of medical bills,
but they're so thankful that they're members of metas Share.
Speaker 12 (38:27):
I think if someone asked me, like, hey, does medicare
really where, I'm living proof that it works. My four
children are living proof that it works. My arms, which
have been healed, are living proof that menashare works. Just
knowing the emotional peace of mind, knowing that our needs
are going to be taken care of when we have
some type of medical problem, that is such a huge
blessing to us.
Speaker 20 (38:47):
It could be a huge blessing to you to people
save so much and love being part of Meta Share
call now eight five five share forty. That's eight five
five share four zero eight five five Share forty.
Speaker 6 (39:04):
Considered by most Optimized curcumin is one of the few
bioavailable and highly absorbable curcumin products on the market. Hi,
I'm doctor Mitch. Since most chronic diseases have inflammation, our
optimized curcumin seems to be a perfect addition to any
nutritional program. It makes sense to me that preventing or
(39:27):
reducing inflammation is a key component to our overall health.
The Mayo Clinic found that kurcumin can decrease swelling and inflammation,
has antioxidant properties, and research suggests that kurcumin can prevent
cancer or at least slow the spread of cancer, and
in many instances, make chemotherapy more effective. It protects our
(39:51):
healthy cells even from radiation. Total wellness dot com where

Speaker 28 (40:02):
I'm Andrew Saul, Commission of Self Security. I'm here to
warn you about telephone scammers pretending to be government employees.
Some of these scammers may say threatening things like you
will be arrested if you don't make payments or provide
personal information. Do not fall for these tricks. These calls
are not from US. Real solid security employees will never
(40:26):
threaten you for information or money. If you receive a
call like this, hang up. Never give the call of
your personal information like your Social Security number or bank account,
or send money in any form cash, gift cards, wire transfers,
or prepaid debit cards. Report the call to our law
(40:46):
enforcement on the Office of the Inspector General at OIG
dot SSA dot gov. Share this information with your friends
and family.
Speaker 15 (41:00):
And it's always a boy. Growing up on a farm
in Tennessee, I've been fascinated with animals. I'm not only
in all of their beauty and kindness, but also their
tireless work ethic. Just look at the birds who gather
supplies to build nests, or Swiss foxes who work hard
to provide for their young, or penguins who travel up
to five hundred miles to secure food for their families,
or bush babies whose impressive jump allows them to navigate
(41:22):
the trees and the wild in search of fruit. This
remarkable work ethic is shared by our best friends, the canines.
We know dogs are wonderful pets at home, but because
of their acute senses, they also perform life saving work
every day. Dogs keep us safe at airports. They comfort
returning veterans, some of whom suffer from PTS. They work
with diabetics, alerting them when there's a change in their
(41:42):
blood chemistry. Working dogs have a variety of highly trained
roles that contribute to society and help those in need.
So please join me an American Humane and supporting our
heroic working dogs and all the amazing animals on this
planet we inhabit together. Go to American Humane dot org

Speaker 14 (42:00):
U oh, Bruhu's buzzed.
Speaker 19 (42:01):
Oh yeah, yeah, he's starting with the woots.
Speaker 9 (42:05):
And now a speech.
Speaker 14 (42:07):
I just want to say that friendship is about heart,
art and brain.
Speaker 2 (42:12):
Who's with me?
Speaker 14 (42:13):
Good thing is he knows when he's buzzed, and my
brain is saying when it's time to go home.
Speaker 2 (42:18):
Somebody call me a ride.
Speaker 3 (42:20):
Love that guy, Me too, know your buzzed warning signs,
call for a ride when it's time to go home.
Buzz driving is drunk driving.
Speaker 29 (42:29):
Did you know that more than half our household energy
costs go to heating and cooling. Energy efficiency isn't just
good for the environment. It means lower utility bills too.
One way to reduce your energy waste is a home
energy assessment. Your utility company can help, or you can
learn how to do it yourself at energysavers dot gov.
(42:50):
That's energysavers dot gov. You'll learn to look for air
leaks around windows and doors, check ducks for holes, and
improve your insulation. Another time to cut energy is when
you shop for a new appliance. Look for the energy
Star logo and read the energy guide label. And there
are day to day things you can do. Lower your
thermostat in winter and raise it in the summer, close
(43:12):
fireplay stampers when they're not in use, and keep air
filters clean. For more tips on saving money by reducing
your energy waste, check out FTC dot gov slash green,
a tip from the Federal Trade Commission, the nation's consumer
protection agency.
Speaker 26 (43:30):
As a family member or friend, you may be the
first to notice when a veteran you love has been
going through changes. Things like withdrawing, drinking more, or increased
anger could be a sign of a larger health concern,
but help is available. Listen to hundreds of inspiring stories
at Makethconnection dot net and learn how you can support
(43:53):
the veterans in your life. Treatment works, recovery is possible.
Speaker 2 (44:05):
The center of attention.
Speaker 10 (44:07):
I'm interesting, the best things investing in.
Speaker 16 (44:09):
Testing and you kids, here's the missing attention.
Speaker 11 (44:14):
Soon as someone mentions me much sense two centsus.
Speaker 2 (44:17):
Three and you sent for me, don't tell me.
Speaker 1 (44:22):
So the FCC won't let us be because they've decided
that since they hold the keys to the candy shop.
And and this is what happens is we we grow
accustom to the place you're on. First thing today we go,
(44:43):
We grow accustomed to these things. This is what Jefferson
warned us in the Declaration of Independence. Abuses become understandable. Well,
we want we want to handle obscenity. Okay, what's u
Well you start talking about anti government activity and we
(45:05):
hold it has that obscene. Well, you know, people believe
in America. People love America, and if you question America's intentions,
then you're being anti government. And we can't stand for
that because the government gave you a license to do
what you do. This is Brendan Carr's rationale and it
is the absolute perfect example of mission creep. So people
(45:33):
start broadcasting and people start broadcasting all over the place,
and the big companies in Chicago and New York are
KO and all the networks of the day NBC, they
would become NBC and CBS, etc. Started calling their friends
(45:54):
in Washington saying, hold on a second here, some guy
in Cleveland is on the error. Some guy in Youngstown,
Ohio is on the air, some guy in Stanton, Virginia
is on the air. And now our network doesn't reach,
you know, all the way into Kentucky because we have
to get past this guy in Youngstown, Ohio. By the way,
(46:17):
if you're not a big fan of Vivek Ramaswami for
a governor, Casey Push is challenging ramas Swam and he's
going to join us a little bit later on for
our friends at WYOH out there. So the from the
(46:37):
get go, just like Thomas Edison was the original crony capitalist,
it seems I think you can make a case that
DuPont was the original because he was the first government contract,
first government military contract anyway, to make black powder for
then Secretary of State Thomas Jefferson. I never said everything
(47:03):
Thomas Jefferson did turned out okay. And then to be fair,
having a stock of black powder already if we needed
to call up the militia. Wasn't a dumb idea. It
the mission creep that came after the FCC. Protecting my spectrum,
my place, or your television stations place on the broadcast dial,
(47:28):
your cell phone company's place on the broadcast dial so
that somebody can't pirate it and come and steal it
should be in its intent and purpose, no different than
filing a deed for the property you own. Where your
house is with the county assessor's office, so the county
(47:53):
has a record. You heard the ads about title of home.
Title of fraud. Guy just photo copies your signal mature
a couple of times, and next thing you know, he
owns your house and he's renting it and selling it.
But generally speaking, you have protection because you have a
deed on file with the government. Did the government give
(48:14):
you permission to own that house or are they just
taking the title that you have, stamping it with a
government records stamp and saying, well, this is yours and
we've established that it is yours, and nobody else can
use this property for their domicile without your permission. Same
(48:35):
is true with an FCC license, But over time it
has become the cudgel with which companies go after one another.
So even from the earliest days of the Federal Broadcast Administration,
the big rkos and mutual networks of Chicago and New
(48:59):
York would go after the broadcasters in Pennsylvania and Massachusetts
and Virginia, saying, wow, you're interfering. Our signal is supposed
to go all the way from Chicago to Kentucky. And
now all of a sudden, some guy's on our same
frequency and in Stanton, Virginia, and we can't cotton that.
(49:21):
What are you doing for the Oh, it's a national emergency.
If we don't reach all the way to Kentucky. Who's
going to tell the people in Kentucky when bad stuff
is going to happen? You mean from Chicago?
Speaker 4 (49:34):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (49:34):
Yeah, from Chicago, paid for by our mind sponsors. Who
and you're going to tell the people in Kentucky when
the xscream is going to hit the air handler?
Speaker 27 (49:45):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (49:46):
Absolutely. That's why you got to take all these other
stations off the air. And that was what was happening.
Blessings of AM Radio. It goes forever. If you got
enough juice behind it, and nobody else is on the
frequency they can hear you eight states away. And thus
(50:08):
begins the mission creep of the FCC into this idea
where now Brendan Carr thinks he can shut down TV
and radio stations that are critical of Donald Trump, and
he's going to bring back some of the most anti
free speech laws ever. He starts talking about the Fairness Doctrine.
(50:28):
Fairness Doctrine killed more speech than it protected ever. So,
whether it's the nonprofits that are being defrauded by the
Somali's and these other NGOs, or the for profits that
are being defrauded not just by the government. But you
(50:49):
watch what they're going to do in California with this
five percent wealth tax. And here's the interesting thing is
people are you know, have a year to move the
stuff out of California. The laws I read it gives
them opportunities to attack it if it's adjacent to California,
if it's connected to a California company. Zefod mad Money,
(51:13):
the incoming mayor of New York, has talked about that
because the rumblings are that the New York Stock Exchange
is going to move out of New York City, and
he wants to establish a New York City taxation zone
that would include New Jersey as well as Connecticut in
some spots. Because he wants a zone where of interest
(51:35):
to New York, the New York metropolitan area should have
a taxing overlay on people who move their business into Connecticut.
It's not unusual. We have it here in Charlottesville. Businesses
move out of Charlottesville because of the high taxes. Yet
if they want to serve clients in Charlottesville, we're going
(51:57):
to have to pay for a special license to do business.
And Rlsville tell me any of this sounds like a
free market. So the young people when they say that
capitalism has failed, they're they're looking at capitalism in a
way that doesn't exist. It isn't capitalism. It's cronyism at best.
(52:22):
At most, it's more governmentism because, like most bureaucracies, at
some point the existence of the bureaucracy must be defended
over the existence of the people who started the bureaucracy,
just like the robots and that Isaac Asimov Yarn four
(52:45):
three four eight eight two four two one seven. While
we still can bite in the hand that feeds me.

Metashare isn't insurance. It's a nonprofit ministry over thirty years
old and members have shared over eight billion dollars of
each other's medical bills.

We don't have to spend so much on health insurance.
You can focus on on supporting other people. Medashare is affordable.

Speaker 5 (00:30):
Jack.
Speaker 1 (00:30):
God bless you for letting us be of service to you.
You know this radio program. Our business model is we'll
tell you what went on. Oh yeah, we'll tell you
what happened. Then we will tell you what we analyze
from the evidence that made it back to the locker.
And after that, I want to hear how it's impacting
you where you are. The singular most local part of
(00:54):
this radio station is you. That's so sad. I'm weird
in saying that, but it's true. And so how is
it hitting you where you live? Email to that from
last week? Joe, I hadn't thought about the cost of
food still being driven by the cost of fertilizer. I
(01:16):
asked some friends, and they said the problem with farming
costs is that we're still paying for stuff that happened
last year, or we're paying for things that might happen
next year. And you're never paying directly for what something costs. Well,
it's any commodity, Sharon, is that is that you're always
(01:43):
either paying back for what has the cost been last year,
or you're paying in advance for what the costs are
going to be coming up for you. We are ready
to We were joking about packing up our twenty twenty
five stuff and getting ready for new digs in twenty
twenty six. I mean, that's just tongue in cheek. We're
(02:03):
not actually moving anywhere. Just got to write new numbers
on our checks. If you still write those things. And
one of the things we're going to be doing this
time next week, we're going to be live from Las
Vegas for the Consumer Electronics Show, and we're going to
try to bring you all the flavor of all the
AI fraud watchers and all the different ways you can
(02:25):
watch out for that, the cybersecurity people, the Internet of things,
some of the neat stuff that you know you can
use the tools and those sorts of things and still
taking you know, still have opportunities for folks. Although it's
been fascinating to me how the tech business really doesn't
want to market to you as a listener of the
(02:48):
radio program. They would rather cut deals with the people
who are supplying you with the stuff that I guess
you're supposed to be supplied with. Oh, we have a
deal with the phone company and we'll put your security
we don't need. And maybe that's part of the problem
with the technology world is none of them deal direct
to consumer, or if they do, there are few and
(03:09):
far between of those companies that do the d what
do they call it, DTC marketing. Wouldn't it be easy?
You know, I want this kind of cybersecurity. I'm sorry,
you bought this laptop and it comes pre wired with
the other kind and you can't take it out because
if you take it out, there goes There goes your laptop.
(03:32):
Thanks for playing, but I don't want this kind of security.
Well that's you get what you get the other laptop
costs more, or the other technology. These are all the
things that you know, consumers in the world of technology
have almost been gasled into. And it's one of the
things we're going to cover next week while we're at
(03:52):
the Consumer Electronics show for you you're dining and dancing
pleasure plus the data centers and all that coming up
for you and like I said, emails JT in the
Morning Radio at gmail dot com. If you have a
business that you think would like to stand out amongst
all the other folks who kind of just do the
B to B backdoor into people's technology, we'd love to
(04:16):
hear from you. President Donald Trump is scheduled to meet
with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin nettan Yahoo today as they
look to get more momentum in moving forward into the
next phases of the ceasefire in Gaza. Progress has slowed recently,
both sides accused one another of violations, and divisions are
(04:36):
emerging among US, Israel and Arab countries, driven mostly by
media arguments that it isn't what they were promised. A
winter storm bearing down on the Upper Midwest for today snow, ice,
and rain. For those who have ever lived on the
Great Lakes, hearing the potential of one foot of snow
(04:56):
makes you think, oh, we're not even going to close
school for that. It could be very very serious, including
windshills sub zero. President Trumps Sunday insisted Ukraine and Russia
are closer than ever before to a peace steal, as
he hosted Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelenski in marri Lago. He said,
in the midst of his meeting with Zelenski, he took
(05:20):
a two and a half hour phone conversation with Russian
President Vladimir Putin, adding to the mix that Russia says
they want to see Ukraine succeed in their rebuilding process
and would contribute lower cost energy and infrastructure support. Minnesota
Governor Tim Wall says, Oh, we've got this covered. We
(05:40):
got this fraud stuff figured out. No, and we've already
closed some of those daycare centers, he said. The spokesman
person for the governor says that he's strengthened oversight in
his administration and several of those facilities are already closed,
meaning the ones you see in the Nick Shirley videos
on social media. Meanwhile, the FBI says we'll see about that,
(06:04):
as they've deployed personnel into Minnesota to quote dismantle large
scale fraud schemes. China's military is saber rattling this morning
as air, navy, and rocket troops conduct joint military drills
around Taiwan. Beijing not being coy about it, saying it's
a stern warning against external interference in the relations between
(06:28):
the two nations. Silicon Valley's wealthiest tech billionaires are once
again being the target of Gavin Newsom's administration. This time,
a state wealth tax will be on the ballot in

actually three known gas is I'm doctor Mitch, and nitric
oxide is a gas that's readily made all day long
to keep our arteries open by relaxing the blood vessel walls.
By doing this, our circulation is increased, bringing blood, oxygen
(08:28):
and nutrients to every part of your body. Both age
and poor diet can lead to a loss of this
precious gas, and in turn, blood pressure can go up,
energy can go down, and you can get tingling in
your hands and feet. Well, our product, Ultimate nitric Oxide,
can easily help fix this lack of nitric oxide. Go

Every year, more American adults die from vaccine preventable diseases
than from breast cancer, traffic accidents, or AIDS. Vaccines like
the one for new macccle disease can protect adults from
illnesses that can cause mistays of work, hospitalization, and even death.
New macaccle disease is an infection that can lead to pneumonia, meningitis,
or even a severe blood infection. That's just one example
(09:56):
of an infection that can spread from person to person.
Getting vaccinated can help protect you and those close to you.
I'm doctor Susan Reem of the National Foundation for Infectious Diseases.
When I speak with my patients, I urge them to
get all their recommended vaccines. Now, I'm urging you to
speak with your doctor to find out which vaccines you need.

adults and the diseases they prevent, like HPV, whooping cough, tetanus,
and shingles, visit Adult Vaccination dot org. That's www dot

The First Thing Today by Joe Thomas on the Talk
media network.
Speaker 1 (13:30):
Amy into that's all fired up this morning as we
wind down on the twenty six. We were talking last hour.
It looked like you got an opportunity there. We spoke
too soon. I might have jinxed it. James Luncke is
on the phone with us from jcsgold dot com with details,
(13:51):
But it looked like there's a buying opportunity in the
breakneck pace of silver to continue to set records. How
you doing this Monday morning, James.
Speaker 17 (14:01):
I'm Bill Well Joel, and it looks like it's going
to be a busy start to the week, of course,
because people have taken advantage since the silver price opened
at six six thirty last night and was at record
highs above eighty dollars an ounce, it has dropped from
there to seventy five dollars and fifty six cents, and.
Speaker 18 (14:23):
People have been buying the dip for sure and buying
silver from our website jcschold dot com for underspot, and
they've been taking advantage of this dip. Here gold is
also dipping down one and a half percent, down sixty
six dollars to four four hundred and sixty five dollars,
So we will see where both medialsts find the support,
(14:46):
but in the meantime, take advantage of these discounts.
Speaker 1 (14:49):
Yeah, definitely get with it and some neat ways to
do it as well at jcsgold dot com. The silver Eagles,
I guess there'll be a new design for twenty twenty six.
So if you haven't picked up the twenty twenty five yet,
still a few there, James get twenty twenty five silver Eagles.
Speaker 18 (15:07):
Yeah, just a few. I have to check so far
this morning because there's a chance that this could have
been sold out fair enough in the past hour or so.
But we do have backdate silver eagles that are at
spot on our website, which have been a hot item
here over the past couple of weeks, and even more
so here with this little dropping price. But relatively speaking,
(15:30):
we're seventy five dollars is pretty much where we were at,
you know, near the end of last week, you know,
in the morning, So the price doesn't feel too different
from where it was last week here in seventy five.
Speaker 2 (15:43):
So we'll see where it goes from here.
Speaker 1 (15:46):
You just got us all excited on Friday and when
it was scratching seventy nine and we're like, what so anyway, James,
four generations of family that do want to help you
navigate the tumultuous waters. Gold and Silver, whatever year it
is at jcsgold dot com callum at four three four
(16:06):
nine to seventy nine coin and you have a great morning, James.
Thanks Joey too, JCS goold dot com. We've been talking
about the grift and the drift here and great. A
text message came in warning warning all of us that
we're going to get screwed for this, that we all
(16:26):
think it's fun in games. This Kareem writes in this
should be a concern for anyone exposing grifts like the
Somali daycare. The muckrackers are being exposed to legal action.
Mark Rendaza reporting media lawyers are on the phone with
non government organizations gearing up to go after YouTubers that
(16:51):
expose fraud. Find insurance if you care, if you can,
how you suggest at link lawyer is a good option.
Also at Walter's log Group or daniel A. Horowitz or
at Ron Holt. I don't know any of these lawyers.
I know that I found out in the past year
(17:12):
what it means to have a media lawyer because generally speaking,
that's what you need because there are going to be
people saying, you know that, well you you shouldn't have
had this. And this goes back kareem to what we
were talking about with the licensing of journalists. But Joel
is hanging along with us on the subject of all
(17:34):
the grift in Minneapolis. I don't you want to come
after me, great, just make sure you spell my name
right in the press.
Speaker 19 (17:42):
To Joe, I'm just mentioning this because government is government's
pretty big, right, and and our population is what like
three hundred.
Speaker 1 (17:50):
And thirty million something? Yeah, I mean no, I'm.
Speaker 19 (17:54):
Sorry, but but where you know, we had those investigating,
we have the FBI, we have NSA, we have the CIA,
we have all kinds of groups. But what you know,
what we've gone through has had corruption within or as
I was saying in New York City, you have police
(18:14):
that just got that they're corrupt, that they walk by
it because it's all over the place.
Speaker 16 (18:20):
What are they going to do?
Speaker 19 (18:21):
I mean, it's just and a lot of those people
are illegal aliens, and so I mean the bigger picture
is how do you clean it up?
Speaker 1 (18:30):
Well? And part of the how do you clean it
up comes down to stopping doing it in the first place.
The the and it sounds mean. And this is where
you have to have the intestical fortitude to do the
right thing for the right reason right now, and tell
people to go to your local churches and to go
to your local you know, boys and girls clubs and
(18:52):
things like that to look for the help. And we
as a moral society. This goes back to the old
Adams statement. We need to be a moral society because
the government has to step in when we stop stepping up.
And if we decide I want to help somebody and
they the answer has too frequently become well, i'll vote
(19:16):
for so and so for Senate and they'll help the
people I want to help. This is how you wind
up with Saturday, we were talking about this Nick Shirley
video and these these mysterious postmenopausal Caucasian women that seem
to show up at all of these instances with cell
phone cameras in hand, prepped up by lawyers as to
(19:39):
what to say to keep themselves out of any verifiable trouble.
Yet there they are, and they will show up, and
they're wearing their Black Lives Matter, you know t shirts
and their Burka's despite being you know, an old irishwoman
and they you know, oh I'm showing my solidarity. Okay,
how about you actually help somebody? How about you hire
(20:00):
there is somebody, how about you give.
Speaker 2 (20:01):
Them a job.
Speaker 1 (20:02):
How about you you help them become a citizen rather
than just engendering the fraud, which is what the middle
people are, uh in government. I mean, if you have a.
Speaker 19 (20:14):
Leak and a pipe, right, and it keeps dripping, that
water bill is going to be big by the end
of the year. If you don't know about the leak.
Speaker 1 (20:21):
Right, that's true. That's true, and that's true medically as well.
I've got to run, Joel. You have a great morning, sir.
You two snug that one by y'all, didn't I four
three four eight A two four two one seven. I
don't know, doctor. My pipe's leak in there. You know,
it's like an old car. Just like an old car,
(20:42):
you know, the motors were confined. We just leak a
little bit more here and there. And that's just the
price of doing business. Emails come into JT in the morning,
radio Gmail dot com. Uh Andy texts into four three
four eight A two four two one seven reminds me
of the Acorn film that James O'Keefe did, is one
(21:02):
of his earliest when he went into Acorn, Remember it
was an American coalition of I forget what a corn,
but Acorn was one of those quote quasi grassroots, quasi
non government quangos that was going around there using government money,
(21:25):
applying for government grants, getting US grants, and then going
out and doing leftist work after laundering it through. And
then then Acorn sort of predates Act Blue Act Blue
as the old campaign apparatus fundraising apparatus of the Obama
campaign Change for America, and they realized that if you
(21:50):
gave money to Act Blue, you could do whatever you wanted,
and then Act Blue gave the money to the candidates,
so it kind of circumvented campaign finance laws.

Speaker 21 (22:09):
Yes, and I am very happy about something you actually
talk about all the time, which is meta share.
Speaker 20 (22:14):
That is right, Yeah, So what was your experience like
with meta share and health care ability?
Speaker 21 (22:18):
Honestly, Brandt seamless and what a blessing. That is when
you're already nervous about a health issue, which I was.
Members shared my expenses. There were zero problems. And let
me tell you, having people pray with you when you
call in with your need, that is just refreshing. Yes,
that's what it is.
Speaker 20 (22:35):
I keep telling people. People love meda share and they
love saving money. The typical family can save five hundred
dollars a month.
Speaker 21 (22:42):

Personalized cancer treatments, predict chronic conditions like feline kidney disease
and even streamline record keeping so veterinarians can focus more
on patients. But, as with any new technology, always keep
a human in the loop to maintain the best pet healthcare.
AI is a powerful tool, but not a replacement for

First thing Today by Joe Thomas on the Dunk Media Network.
All natural and free of artificial intelligence. Oh, information wondering
is really quite ferocious.
Speaker 24 (28:23):
It's right up ups to take them lines and makes
them sound prepocious for seeing them in.
Speaker 2 (28:26):
Congress or mainstream outed.
Speaker 21 (28:28):
So this information's.
Speaker 8 (28:30):
Origins are slightly less atrocious.
Speaker 10 (28:33):
It's how you hide it, delighted lie, It's how.
Speaker 1 (28:35):
You light Yes. It is especially when you want to
run journalism through a program of licensure. And this this
ties together last week's depiction of Brendan carr Is Crampis
in our Christmas parable if Donald Trump is Santa Claus,
(28:56):
Brendan carr Is Crampus and worse than that. Brendan Carr
is no different than all the other ones. The difference
is his boss wants to punish people who have tried
to make it impossible for him to win the presidency.
Does that deny that the folks like Jimmy Kimmel and
(29:18):
all these folks have it in for Donald Trump? No,
not at all. The hypocrisy is they all love Donald
Trump when he helped them score ratings, but once he
became president, the people who are paying their bills were like,
oh no, we're gonna lose money. And all of this
(29:41):
is based around we're going to lose money. So the
Orange Man has to be done in because he is
costing us money. I'd love to say it is any
deeper than that. I'd love to tell you that there's
all this high drama the people carrying, but I can't
(30:03):
do that for you. So let's unpack some of this
coming up. But first we got a couple of things
to lay in there. First thing today Sports Storycter Mac
McDonald tell us what you're working on in Sports this morning.
Speaker 27 (30:16):
Match, Good morning, Joe, Welcome to Monday. Here are the
stories we are tracking. The Patriots dragged May through for
five touchdowns in New England grounded the Jets forty two
to ten. The Pats won the AFC East for the
first time in six years after the Bills were beaten
by Philly. The Bills comeback fell short with a blocked
extra point and a miss two point conversion that final
thirteen to twelve. With Seattle's twenty seven to ten. Very
(30:39):
October Carolina, the Panthers missed an opportunity to clinch the
NFC South, combined with the Dolphins, went over Tampa Bay.
The Bucks and Panthers play next week for the division
and loan playoff spot. Jacksonville down the Colts twenty three
to seventeen. The Jags now are one went away from.
Speaker 1 (30:57):
The AFC crown. He'll be back at seven thirty. It
open his reporter's notebook for us in detail, and now
it's time to take a look at what's going on
in business. Jared James Luck say, if you go to
jcsgold dot com, you'll see Silver's cracked back down almost
(31:21):
four dollars announced since yesterday seventy five dollars sixty seven cents.
Certainly a breaknet position, but lower than it was, say Friday,
seventy three dollars dip in gold as well as it
goes on sale a little bit this morning forty four
fifty nine and sixty three cents. Asian shares down this
(31:42):
morning as China starts to saber rattle around Taiwan this morning,
Stocks in general and the New York Stock Exchange closing
a quieter in post Christmas trading. However, the American consumer
activity led to the biggest GDP growth in over two years,
(32:03):
four point eight percent for Q three. Student loan borrowers
aren't going to get hit with garnishments on January seventh.
They'll be hit with letters saying we're coming for you.
If you don't fix this, you'll be given a month
to do what you need to do to get right
with the federal student loan agencies. And millennials are starting
(32:26):
to find digital. Pardon me analog islands as we head
out to the Consumer Electronics Show to broadcast next week.
Digital life has led to people trying to find the
non digital in their world, including an uptick and automobile
manufacturer's sale of manual transmission vehicles. The interest in that
(32:51):
going up so last segment, Kareem sent me a link
to this. It was Rendaza, a guy and his warning
that government non government agencies quasi non government agencies are
being ramped up by the media companies to go after
(33:16):
these YouTubers who are out there just oh, I don't know,
doing their job for them, and I get it, I
get it. Rather than compete, just sue yourself to dominance.
It's a business plan. You can't argue. It's immoral and
your soul is going to shrivel and die on the vine.
(33:36):
But other than that, I mean, you rock on with
your bad self. But this goes back to Barack Obama
suggesting that federal protections, protections against sources and free speech
protections for journalists should only convey if they were in
possession of a government license. That's all fun and games
(33:58):
when it's Barack Obama, when it's Brendan Carr saying, we'll
go after you if you don't say the things the
government wants you to say, and if you're not good
to Donald Trump will come after you. And I understand
that the media was overwhelmingly biased against Donald Trump three times,
(34:27):
but the license culture is going to be the death
of us. You can only make a computer if you've
got a US government license. You can only make a
smartphone if you if you have a US government license.
What is the record of the US government when it
comes to that kind of investiture. We were talking about
(34:47):
the failings of the bureaucratic aid industry and the grift
that it promotes, especially amongst that twenty percent of the
bureaucracy whose only it seems to be is to perpetrate
the bureaucracy itself. These are the people who create the
(35:09):
American government is the same as America narrative. These are
the people who if you voted against Hillary, you were
voting against America because Hillary is in our family in America,
and the bureaucracy is America, and we created it and
it's ours and it's America. And if you're engaging in
(35:32):
Unamerican activities if you question the government, these are the
same alien insedition laws that caused Thomas Jefferson, also of Charlottesville,
like this program, to run for president in the first place,
as he watched these laws that started to say questioning
the government was the same thing as questioning the country.
(35:59):
And I know it's a sliced, very thin piece of boloney,
but it's different. It is different.
Speaker 5 (36:09):
And so.
Speaker 1 (36:11):
The media companies want Brendan Carr going after people like
Nick Shirley. This program people who aren't part of the club,
who haven't paid their dues to the agency, and we
have to stop it. And the fact that Donald Trump
(36:33):
is doing it a is understandable, but he needs to
be woken up to it because I don't believe he's
realizing the the exponential effects. But it is only just
an offshoot of the licensed culture. It's how they shut
(36:53):
down all of our businesses during COVID. They had no
authority to shut down our business, nor did they have
enough police officers to stand in everybody's storefront. But they
could say, well, we'll take away your license to operate,
then we'll arrest you for operating a business without a license.
You see how the setup happens, and the big guys
(37:19):
can afford it. This is how we centralize business. It's
just like this moratorium that's been suggested by our own
Congressman John McGuire on the capital gains tax. If you
can increase home ownership by eliminating capital gains tax for
a little while, you think of what you can do
(37:39):
if you can eliminate it overall. As Ben Franklin said
years ago, if you want less of something, tax it,
or as Reagan said, if something moves in Washington, we
tax it, and when it stops moving, we subsidize it.
Speaker 20 (38:01):
Life can change so abruptly.
Speaker 2 (38:04):
Just ask Paul.
Speaker 20 (38:05):
He's a hardworking entrepreneur, he's young, he's got a young family. Suddenly, though,
he develops a rare medical condition where he lost the
use of both of his arms.
Speaker 12 (38:14):
I could no longer drive a car, couldn't use a computer, type,
couldn't use a mouse. I could not hold my son,
who was about a month old.
Speaker 20 (38:20):
Paul and his family were facing a mountain of medical bills,
but they're so thankful that they're members of metas Share.
Speaker 12 (38:27):
I think if someone asked me, like, hey, does medicare
really where, I'm living proof that it works. My four
children are living proof that it works. My arms, which
have been healed, are living proof that menashare works. Just
knowing the emotional peace of mind, knowing that our needs
are going to be taken care of when we have
some type of medical problem, that is such a huge
blessing to us.
Speaker 20 (38:47):
It could be a huge blessing to you to people
save so much and love being part of Meta Share

Considered by most Optimized curcumin is one of the few
bioavailable and highly absorbable curcumin products on the market. Hi,
I'm doctor Mitch. Since most chronic diseases have inflammation, our
optimized curcumin seems to be a perfect addition to any
nutritional program. It makes sense to me that preventing or
(39:27):
reducing inflammation is a key component to our overall health.
The Mayo Clinic found that kurcumin can decrease swelling and inflammation,
has antioxidant properties, and research suggests that kurcumin can prevent
cancer or at least slow the spread of cancer, and
in many instances, make chemotherapy more effective. It protects our
(39:51):
healthy cells even from radiation. Total wellness dot com where

I'm Andrew Saul, Commission of Self Security. I'm here to
warn you about telephone scammers pretending to be government employees.
Some of these scammers may say threatening things like you
will be arrested if you don't make payments or provide
personal information. Do not fall for these tricks. These calls
are not from US. Real solid security employees will never
(40:26):
threaten you for information or money. If you receive a
call like this, hang up. Never give the call of
your personal information like your Social Security number or bank account,
or send money in any form cash, gift cards, wire transfers,
or prepaid debit cards. Report the call to our law
(40:46):
enforcement on the Office of the Inspector General at OIG
dot SSA dot gov. Share this information with your friends
and family.
Speaker 15 (41:00):
And it's always a boy. Growing up on a farm
in Tennessee, I've been fascinated with animals. I'm not only
in all of their beauty and kindness, but also their
tireless work ethic. Just look at the birds who gather
supplies to build nests, or Swiss foxes who work hard
to provide for their young, or penguins who travel up
to five hundred miles to secure food for their families,
or bush babies whose impressive jump allows them to navigate
(41:22):
the trees and the wild in search of fruit. This
remarkable work ethic is shared by our best friends, the canines.
We know dogs are wonderful pets at home, but because
of their acute senses, they also perform life saving work
every day. Dogs keep us safe at airports. They comfort
returning veterans, some of whom suffer from PTS. They work
with diabetics, alerting them when there's a change in their
(41:42):
blood chemistry. Working dogs have a variety of highly trained
roles that contribute to society and help those in need.
So please join me an American Humane and supporting our
heroic working dogs and all the amazing animals on this
planet we inhabit together. Go to American Humane dot org

U oh, Bruhu's buzzed.
Speaker 19 (42:01):
Oh yeah, yeah, he's starting with the woots.
Speaker 9 (42:05):
And now a speech.
Speaker 14 (42:07):
I just want to say that friendship is about heart,
art and brain.
Speaker 2 (42:12):
Who's with me?
Speaker 14 (42:13):
Good thing is he knows when he's buzzed, and my
brain is saying when it's time to go home.
Speaker 2 (42:18):
Somebody call me a ride.
Speaker 3 (42:20):
Love that guy, Me too, know your buzzed warning signs,
call for a ride when it's time to go home.
Buzz driving is drunk driving.

Did you know that more than half our household energy
costs go to heating and cooling. Energy efficiency isn't just
good for the environment. It means lower utility bills too.
One way to reduce your energy waste is a home
energy assessment. Your utility company can help, or you can
learn how to do it yourself at energysavers dot gov.
(42:50):
That's energysavers dot gov. You'll learn to look for air
leaks around windows and doors, check ducks for holes, and
improve your insulation. Another time to cut energy is when
you shop for a new appliance. Look for the energy
Star logo and read the energy guide label. And there
are day to day things you can do. Lower your
thermostat in winter and raise it in the summer, close
(43:12):
fireplay stampers when they're not in use, and keep air
filters clean. For more tips on saving money by reducing
your energy waste, check out FTC dot gov slash green,
a tip from the Federal Trade Commission, the nation's consumer
protection agency.
Speaker 26 (43:30):
As a family member or friend, you may be the
first to notice when a veteran you love has been
going through changes. Things like withdrawing, drinking more, or increased
anger could be a sign of a larger health concern,
but help is available. Listen to hundreds of inspiring stories
at Makethconnection dot net and learn how you can support
(43:53):
the veterans in your life. Treatment works, recovery is possible.
Speaker 2 (44:05):
The center of attention.
Speaker 10 (44:07):
I'm interesting, the best things investing in.
Speaker 16 (44:09):
Testing and you kids, here's the missing attention.
Speaker 11 (44:14):
Soon as someone mentions me much sense two centsus.
Speaker 2 (44:17):
Three and you sent for me, don't tell me.
Speaker 1 (44:22):
So the FCC won't let us be because they've decided
that since they hold the keys to the candy shop.
And and this is what happens is we we grow
accustom to the place you're on. First thing today we go,
(44:43):
We grow accustomed to these things. This is what Jefferson
warned us in the Declaration of Independence. Abuses become understandable. Well,
we want we want to handle obscenity. Okay, what's u
Well you start talking about anti government activity and we
(45:05):
hold it has that obscene. Well, you know, people believe
in America. People love America, and if you question America's intentions,
then you're being anti government. And we can't stand for
that because the government gave you a license to do
what you do. This is Brendan Carr's rationale and it
is the absolute perfect example of mission creep. So people
(45:33):
start broadcasting and people start broadcasting all over the place,
and the big companies in Chicago and New York are
KO and all the networks of the day NBC, they
would become NBC and CBS, etc. Started calling their friends
(45:54):
in Washington saying, hold on a second here, some guy
in Cleveland is on the error. Some guy in Youngstown,
Ohio is on the air, some guy in Stanton, Virginia
is on the air. And now our network doesn't reach,
you know, all the way into Kentucky because we have
to get past this guy in Youngstown, Ohio. By the way,
(46:17):
if you're not a big fan of Vivek Ramaswami for
a governor, Casey Push is challenging ramas Swam and he's
going to join us a little bit later on for
our friends at WYOH out there. So the from the
(46:37):
get go, just like Thomas Edison was the original crony capitalist,
it seems I think you can make a case that
DuPont was the original because he was the first government contract,
first government military contract anyway, to make black powder for
then Secretary of State Thomas Jefferson. I never said everything
(47:03):
Thomas Jefferson did turned out okay. And then to be fair,
having a stock of black powder already if we needed
to call up the militia. Wasn't a dumb idea. It
the mission creep that came after the FCC. Protecting my spectrum,
my place, or your television stations place on the broadcast dial,
(47:28):
your cell phone company's place on the broadcast dial so
that somebody can't pirate it and come and steal it
should be in its intent and purpose, no different than
filing a deed for the property you own. Where your
house is with the county assessor's office, so the county
(47:53):
has a record. You heard the ads about title of home.
Title of fraud. Guy just photo copies your signal mature
a couple of times, and next thing you know, he
owns your house and he's renting it and selling it.
But generally speaking, you have protection because you have a
deed on file with the government. Did the government give
(48:14):
you permission to own that house or are they just
taking the title that you have, stamping it with a
government records stamp and saying, well, this is yours and
we've established that it is yours, and nobody else can
use this property for their domicile without your permission. Same
(48:35):
is true with an FCC license, But over time it
has become the cudgel with which companies go after one another.
So even from the earliest days of the Federal Broadcast Administration,
the big rkos and mutual networks of Chicago and New
(48:59):
York would go after the broadcasters in Pennsylvania and Massachusetts
and Virginia, saying, wow, you're interfering. Our signal is supposed
to go all the way from Chicago to Kentucky. And
now all of a sudden, some guy's on our same
frequency and in Stanton, Virginia, and we can't cotton that.
(49:21):
What are you doing for the Oh, it's a national emergency.
If we don't reach all the way to Kentucky. Who's
going to tell the people in Kentucky when bad stuff
is going to happen? You mean from Chicago?
Speaker 4 (49:34):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (49:34):
Yeah, from Chicago, paid for by our mind sponsors. Who
and you're going to tell the people in Kentucky when
the xscream is going to hit the air handler?
Speaker 27 (49:45):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (49:46):
Absolutely. That's why you got to take all these other
stations off the air. And that was what was happening.
Blessings of AM Radio. It goes forever. If you got
enough juice behind it, and nobody else is on the
frequency they can hear you eight states away. And thus
(50:08):
begins the mission creep of the FCC into this idea
where now Brendan Carr thinks he can shut down TV
and radio stations that are critical of Donald Trump, and
he's going to bring back some of the most anti
free speech laws ever. He starts talking about the Fairness Doctrine.
(50:28):
Fairness Doctrine killed more speech than it protected ever. So,
whether it's the nonprofits that are being defrauded by the
Somali's and these other NGOs, or the for profits that
are being defrauded not just by the government. But you
(50:49):
watch what they're going to do in California with this
five percent wealth tax. And here's the interesting thing is
people are you know, have a year to move the
stuff out of California. The laws I read it gives
them opportunities to attack it if it's adjacent to California,
if it's connected to a California company. Zefod mad Money,
(51:13):
the incoming mayor of New York, has talked about that
because the rumblings are that the New York Stock Exchange
is going to move out of New York City, and
he wants to establish a New York City taxation zone
that would include New Jersey as well as Connecticut in
some spots. Because he wants a zone where of interest
(51:35):
to New York, the New York metropolitan area should have
a taxing overlay on people who move their business into Connecticut.
It's not unusual. We have it here in Charlottesville. Businesses
move out of Charlottesville because of the high taxes. Yet
if they want to serve clients in Charlottesville, we're going
(51:57):
to have to pay for a special license to do business.
And Rlsville tell me any of this sounds like a
free market. So the young people when they say that
capitalism has failed, they're they're looking at capitalism in a
way that doesn't exist. It isn't capitalism. It's cronyism at best.
(52:22):
At most, it's more governmentism because, like most bureaucracies, at
some point the existence of the bureaucracy must be defended
over the existence of the people who started the bureaucracy,
just like the robots and that Isaac Asimov Yarn four

we still can bite in the hand that feeds me.

A few years ago, my youngest son had something minor
turned into something very major in a matter of hours.
Speaker 13 (52:57):
It was metiche that came through force, and there's no hassles,
there was no problem.
Speaker 30 (53:02):
That's what's so wonderful about knowing that you're a part
of such an incredible ministry.
Speaker 25 (53:07):
Meta Share is a biblical approach to healthcare where Christians
share each other's medical expenses.
Speaker 3 (53:13):
Medishare is a family, a group of people that stick
with you through the hardest times of your life.
Speaker 25 (53:20):
Metashare isn't insurance. It's a nonprofit ministry over thirty years
old and members have shared over eight billion dollars of
each other's medical bills.
Speaker 2 (53:28):
We don't have to spend so much on health insurance.
You can focus on on supporting other people. Medashare is affordable.
Speaker 25 (53:35):
Medishare is biblical.
Speaker 24 (53:36):
Medas Share is family.

your healthcare and support your family when you need it.
