Speaker 1 (00:23):
Hey, yeah, they they should calm down. The show is
about to style Reese on the radio.

Speaker 2 (00:29):
Turn it up, turn turn it up low, turn it
up loud.

Speaker 3 (00:33):
Does like a dream come true?

Speaker 4 (00:37):
Also scheme.

Speaker 1 (00:40):
Due to the nature of this program, discretion does not exist.
It's race on the radio right now on w t
I S News Talk ten eighty.

Speaker 3 (00:55):
Yeah, California's on fire.

Speaker 2 (01:05):
They're burning it down, ladies and gentlemen.

Speaker 5 (01:08):
There's news in America. Every single day.

Speaker 6 (01:11):
There are children that cry when their mom or dad
who's an American citizen that breaks the law gets arrested
and goes to jail. I have watched it, and there's
no riding eluding over that, because we understand that we're
either a country of laws or we are not a
country of laws.

Speaker 4 (01:26):
Every day we.

Speaker 6 (01:27):
Send moms and dads who are American citizens of prison
and we separate them from their families. And you know
why we don't feel sorry for them, because we judge
them on the law, and we say, if you break
the law in America, we put you in jail.

Speaker 3 (01:43):
But not if you're an illegal. You can't put them
in jail. If they're an illegal, who's gonna pick the watermelon?
You don't understand that, Ben Ferguson, Who's gonna pick the
candalobes the strawberries? How are these beautiful porcelain princes and

(02:06):
princesses going to get their strawberries smoothie at the local shop?
How are they gonna get it done? Who's gonna pick
the strawberries? You can't arrest them. They are above the law. Well,
everyone else isn't above the law. You see the contradiction

(02:29):
there that I just made like out of nowhere. No
one is above the law unless they gave it to
the country illegally.

Speaker 2 (02:38):
That's what it is talking about separating families.

Speaker 3 (02:43):
I know a couple of black kids in the community
that I grew up in.

Speaker 2 (02:47):
Their mama's and their daddy's got locked up for drug deals.

Speaker 3 (02:52):
Huh, didn't we have a criminal justice system that grabbed
mommies and daddies all over the street for selling crack
rock put him in jail for longer sentences than their
white counterparts because they sold rock and the white kids
sold powder. I remember that that was like the argument

(03:15):
that the community had growing up. You know, you understand, Reese,
the criminal justice system is racist against black people. You
know what I'm saying because the same amount of crack
rock that I got, the white man could have the
white powder, and I do ten years for the crack
rock and he do six months for the powder, even
though we got the same amount of drugs. Reach you

(03:35):
don't understand criminal justice system is racist and bigoted. And
now where are all of those people, those Black Power
though your fist in the air as shocked and rallying
Jesse Jackson Rainbow Coalition Negroes, while now people are screaming

(03:58):
you can't separate families when they do something illegal, where
all those kids turn.

Speaker 2 (04:05):
Around and goes I got separated from my mom and dad.

Speaker 3 (04:10):
He was just trying to put food on the table
so he could feed us because he couldn't get a job.

Speaker 2 (04:15):
There wasn't this empathy for my daddy who got locked up.
I don't hear it. I don't hear it. And I'd
like to ask a question.

Speaker 3 (04:29):
Connecticut Hartford Current in particular, if I remember correctly, this
state was running around the whole state in front of
Tesla dealerships screaming fascists and racist towards Elon Musk. But

(04:58):
did I see in the Hartford Current today and yesterday
people rallying with admitted communists. Did I see them rallying
with groups that celebrated Lenin and Stalin and chairman Mao?

Speaker 2 (05:25):
Did I see that yesterday? In the paper?

Speaker 3 (05:30):
In fact, at the Hartford Current they had a profile
in pictures from yesterday's protests about the ice raids in
Los Angeles? A no ice raids here yet? But did
I see them standing around holding signs and protesting with communists?

(05:59):
Let me go one step further, and if I may,
I have to applaud myself. One of those communists are
gonna be on the show tomorrow. He bailed on me
today he wasn't feeling well, but he'll be here tomorrow.
We've got to ask the Communist Party was there yesterday?

Speaker 2 (06:20):
Did anyone not notice?

Speaker 3 (06:22):
The Revolutionary Communist Party USA? Did anybody know they were here?
I thought that Connecticut was against fascism. I thought they
were against racism. The Revolutionary Communist Party? Do you want
to know who these people are? Try this on for size.

(06:44):
Do you know when they started accepting Gaze into their party?
It was after Republicans acknowledged homosexuality.

Speaker 2 (06:59):
I'm not kidding.

Speaker 3 (07:01):
The Revolutionary Communist Party recognized homosexuality as a way of life,
as a legitimate community that could join their ranks in
two thousand and one, and they were at protests in
Connecticut yesterday. Who was out there celebrating with them? I'm

(07:29):
looking at the pictures right now.

Speaker 2 (07:31):
Let me go to this.

Speaker 3 (07:32):
It says photos rallies in Hartford show solidarity after Sunday's
riots in La their solidarity with riots in Los Angeles.
Who was out there with the Revolutionary Communist Party? Weirdly enough,

(07:56):
the SEIU was out in droves with the Revolutionary Communist
Party the RCP. And folks, if you've seen the pictures,
these aren't covert communists, no, no, no, no no. They

(08:22):
were out there wearing shirts that read r c P
with a hammer and sickle on it in bright red
and white.

Speaker 2 (08:36):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (08:38):
Free David Hueta. Those are the people who were standing
up there, purple power, Free. And I don't know David Tueta.
He got arrested this weekend in Los Angeles, and the
local SEIU in Hartford had pictures with Huerta's picture on

(09:03):
it that said free David Huerta. In thirty six hours,
everybody had posters.

Speaker 2 (09:16):
How is that possible? The Republican. I'm sorry.

Speaker 3 (09:23):
The Revolutionary Communist Party had a sign that says nine
people have died in ice custody since January twentieth. What
did they not tell you? Some of those were suicides?
They didn't mentioned it, but that's okay, that's okay. Did

(09:44):
they also notice that there were plenty of people who
were wearing masks.

Speaker 2 (09:49):
With bullhorns?

Speaker 3 (09:52):
This ice tastes like fascism signs.

Speaker 2 (09:56):
I saw it, did you?

Speaker 3 (10:02):
Why didn't anyone ask, hey, what are the communists doing here?

Speaker 2 (10:11):
Hey?

Speaker 3 (10:13):
Does anybody find it odd that a communist party is
out in the streets of Hartford, Connecticut, the United States
of America exercising their free speech rights? Anybody? No one

(10:33):
found the irony in that the communists hammer and sickle.
I remember it wasn't too long ago that people in
Connecticut were running around saying.

Speaker 2 (10:53):
I stand with Ukraine.

Speaker 3 (11:00):
There are groups of people outside with a hammer and
sickle on their shirts, and you stood with them?

Speaker 2 (11:15):
Who sided you on?

Speaker 3 (11:19):
Are you really so desperate to get the spotlight? Are
you so angered and desperate that California is getting all
of this love that no one's paying attention to? Widow
o Connecticut? Are you so California's little baby sister that

(11:45):
you are trying to scream out.

Speaker 2 (11:48):
Don't forget about us. We're angry too. We care about
illegal immigration in this country.

Speaker 3 (11:58):
Someone please put the spotlight on us. Y'all are riding
with communists? Where where do you stand? Can you do both?
Or is it that you're so desperate? Anybody who show
up to a rally, you'll just align yourselves with them.

Speaker 2 (12:19):
Huh?

Speaker 3 (12:20):
Where are the Black Israelites? Black Israelites, you got nothing
to do this coming weekend? It's a rally against Donald Trump.
You should join them as well. Yes, black Israelites, pro Palestinian,
let's be honest, pro Hamas protesters with Kafias and that head.

Speaker 2 (12:39):
On their heads.

Speaker 3 (12:40):
Whatever it takes, just get it's it's it's power in numbers, folks.
Even if the groups contradict themselves, it doesn't matter. You
have one common cause you hate Trump and Maga. No
one's ever gonna hold you accountable. No one's gonna look

(13:00):
at you and go, well, that's funny. That's Peter and
those groups. They're wearing fur and leather, but you know what,
they found a way to get along. It makes sense, Hey,
why not call up Antifa, why not bring more attention

(13:21):
to your crowd and bring the Satanists on with you.

Speaker 2 (13:25):
It doesn't matter. No one's gonna hold you accountable.

Speaker 3 (13:28):
Not one person in the news media is gonna ask
how the hell you have a hodgepodge of people who
contradict themselves, all under one umbrella. No one's gonna have
the audacity to ask you that. You guys are absolutely ridiculous,

(13:48):
all of you.

Speaker 2 (13:49):
It's sad to watch.

Speaker 3 (13:53):
What makes all of this worse is that you don't
even know you're losing the art argument. The more this
is done, the further down the drain you go. The
American people want no more of this. The optics are bad.

(14:16):
Want to know how bad they are. Yesterday, Simsbury Joe
called up and said that he was outraged that someone
would be on American soil, standing on a burning vehicle
holding up the Mexican flag. Simsbury Joe was righteous in
that outrage. He was so righteous. Ladies and gentlemen, let

(14:40):
me read you this headline, and it's absolutely insane. But
Simsbury Joe, you gotta pat yourself on the back. LA
rioters are now distributing American flags after realizing the horrible
optics of waving foreign flags for days.

Speaker 2 (15:05):
Do you get it?

Speaker 1 (15:06):
Now?

Speaker 2 (15:08):
All of this.

Speaker 3 (15:11):
Is turning against you, George Floyd. Those riots, that was
the turning point. That's a rap for you. There will
be no emotional strong arming of the American people through emotion,
and what you consider the moral high ground, you no

(15:34):
longer have it. You want to know why, because you're destructive,
because you're a bunch of five year olds with a
Molotov cocktail. You're throwing a tantrum in the cookie aisle,
demanding that your needs be met, and America says, go
right ahead, we are not budgeting. Don't take my word

(16:00):
for it. Even CNN acknowledges it.

Speaker 7 (16:06):
You know, if we just take a look at the
baseline numbers here, this is Trump's net approval rating on immigration.

Speaker 2 (16:11):
It's gone up like a rocket.

Speaker 7 (16:13):
Compare now versus eight years ago during Trump's first term,
look at this and his first term Trump was way
way way underwater, minus twenty one points. But look at this,
He's up over twenty points now in the aggregate. He
is in positive territory if plus one point on his
net approval rating. Some other polls even have it a
little bit higher than that. There is no issue on

(16:33):
which Trump is doing so much better than he was
in his first term more than the issue of immigration.
No wonder The Times has written up the way that
he is. Trump is begging for a fight on this
because he knows what he's doing so far is working
with the American electorate.

Speaker 2 (16:47):
Where does immigration rank on issues for him? How is
he doing compaired to others?

Speaker 7 (16:51):
Yeah, so I think what's so important is it is
his top issue so far. And the reason it is
his top issue is because take a look at the
individual nuggets in here. Why are people approving of Trump
on immigration? Approof of these different immigration actions. Well, Trump's
administration's program to deport those here illegally. Look at this
fifty four percent approval. How about agents searching your hometown

(17:13):
for those that they think are here illegally. Again, positive
territory here above fifty percent for Donald Trump. So it's
not just on the broad issue of immigration where Trump
is doing well. It's on the specifics when you dive
into the issues, Trump is above fifty percent and his
actions are above fifty percent, at least with those most
directly connected to what's going on right now out in

(17:35):
Los Angeles.

Speaker 2 (17:38):
You're losing.

Speaker 3 (17:41):
We warned you, We told you, we said keep protesting,
We encouraged you.

Speaker 2 (17:49):
You obviously listened.

Speaker 3 (17:53):
It's the only thing you'll listen to is when we
tell you go protest, go burn things down.

Speaker 2 (18:00):
You do.

Speaker 3 (18:02):
We're very, very happy with you. We'll see you this Saturday.
We'll be back at three Sunder Radio. It's newstalk ten
ad WTIC.

Speaker 1 (18:13):
Download and Mike wt I C today for alerts on
special programming.

Speaker 3 (18:18):
That's right at Tree Sunn Radio. We're back news talk
ten to eighty WTIC. We've got a guest coming up today.
We haven't had him on in a while. Chris Powell
from chrispowellcolumn dot com is going to join us today.

Speaker 2 (18:30):
He wrote a great article. I mentioned it yesterday.

Speaker 3 (18:33):
Much poverty in Connecticut arises from bad state policy. And
I'm gonna talk to him about that because there's a
companion article not written by him, another article that's out
today that I don't know if Chris knows about it,
but maybe he's listening.

Speaker 2 (18:46):
He could check it out.

Speaker 3 (18:47):
I thought it was weird, but it's talking about the
the six figures it takes in order to live in Connecticut.
And I've talked about this often, being a New Yorker
and what New York are on the outside looking in,
what we thought of Connecticut and it being a wealthy

(19:09):
place to live. And you know, yes, my naivete, I
knew nothing about New Haven. I knew nothing about Bridgeport.
I knew nothing about Hartford proper. But when you thought
about Connecticut, I knew people who had gone to places
like Greenwich. You know, every person who I knew who
went somewhere in Connecticut went someplace fancy. I remember when

(19:31):
we when we would vacation up in Greenwich and hang
out with in our family. You know, there's some royalty
in our family, and so many people are I could
name in my family who have a little bit of
the genome of.

Speaker 2 (19:53):
The royal family and Vengland.

Speaker 3 (19:54):
Yes, that's why we traveled up there to Connecticut very often. Yes,
you know, I think that's the whole reason why Connecticut
wants to keep all of the slaves, I mean, immigrants
in the country. I think that's solely for the reason
why they want to keep them there. Yeah, you got
all of these elderly folks standing around screaming for immigration.

Speaker 2 (20:19):
We need to keep down here. Everybody is legal.

Speaker 3 (20:23):
I think the true reason why is because you know
who's going to fetch the teen crumpets. You can't. You
can't take these people out of our country. What are
you doing? Donald Trump? Who will bring the horses around
so that I can gallop on my daily run with

(20:46):
the horses. I'm just saying. I'm just saying. It looks
a little elitist. It just looks a little bit, That's
all I'm saying. If you think that's crazy, this is
Eddy and he sounds like Connecticut.

Speaker 2 (21:03):
He does. He sounds like Connecticut. And I'll give you
Let me give.

Speaker 3 (21:07):
You a little headline ripper from this audio clip I'm
about to play for you. You have to ask yourself
a question based upon what Eddie Glad on MSNBC is
about to say, who is the slave catcher and who
is the slave owner? Because he equates this whole thing

(21:33):
about ice going to pick up people at the home
depot or in the fashion district in California and Los Angeles.
He uses the analogy poorly. He even admits that there
is a slave owner slave catcher situation, going on the

(21:55):
fact that he refers to these people as slaves is
all you need to know. But I would like to
know who is the slave holder and the Ice must
be the slave catcher. Donald Trump can't be the slave
holder because he doesn't want to keep the slave Democrats do.

(22:20):
That's all I'm trying to understand. Here's Eddie glad.

Speaker 5 (22:24):
Oh will that disappear now that folks have their red meat,
now that they're going to see the spectacle of quote
unquote La on fire, which it's not right.

Speaker 6 (22:34):
What will happen?

Speaker 5 (22:34):
Will reactivate the ugliness that got him in office in
the first place. Will folks now declare why they love
him because we know that he's always good on the
immigration question? And then the second thing, this reminds me
historically of the It's not a clear analogy, but when
the nation, when when these political factions divided the nation
in between between slaveholders and slam catchers, when they made

(22:59):
everybody the future of slave law, All of us had
to if someone escaped, all of us had to return
that particular piece of property to these folk with Ice
running around La.

Speaker 2 (23:09):
So what.

Speaker 3 (23:12):
Is he saying returning them to their home country? Is
the slave owner and Ice is the slave catcher, grabbing
them and bringing them back to their home country, and
their home country is the slave owner.

Speaker 2 (23:30):
And I don't understand. I just again, I don't know.

Speaker 3 (23:33):
If these people know what they're talking about, but it
doesn't make sense to me, Like why even say that,
and why is it always bringing up the slave analogy
when it comes to talking about these people, talking about
them cleaning toilets, talking about them cleaning.

Speaker 2 (23:56):
Bathrooms in hotel rooms.

Speaker 3 (24:00):
Cotton, I was like, there's no one and look, I
know they're out of touch. Let me say this, this
is an interesting point of view. I played this if
you're just joining us, I played Harry Enton of CNN
laying out how Donald Trump gained twenty one points on

(24:23):
the immigration issue since twenty seventeen, how polling data has
him plus fifty percent over fifty percent on getting illegals
out of the country. He's winning this argument, and while
this is happening, Democrats are taking the opposition and are

(24:44):
losing in this debate. Perhaps the thing that we're missing
here is something I've said for far too long. I
said it about Chris Murphy, Dick Blumenthal, Lamont, the legislature
here in Connecticut.

Speaker 2 (25:03):
I've set it across the country.

Speaker 3 (25:05):
What do we know about the Democrat Party when it
comes to the American people?

Speaker 2 (25:09):
What do we know that?

Speaker 3 (25:11):
What they do is never on the behalf of the
people they represent.

Speaker 2 (25:16):
Never is it?

Speaker 3 (25:18):
Because elected officials think that they know better than you.
They don't have to ask you, because they are the
moral majority, the moral authority on behavior, gun control legislation.
You don't know what to do with a gun, what

(25:40):
you should eat, where you should live. These elected officials
know better than you, and you should never have the
choice of protecting yourself or being responsible for where your
children live, even what schools you should go to. They

(26:01):
don't believe that you have a right to choice, even
though you believe it.

Speaker 2 (26:06):
But I want choice. You don't know what's best.

Speaker 3 (26:10):
That's why you elected us to do it for you.

Speaker 2 (26:16):
You don't need to get a job. We're gonna bring
you universal.

Speaker 3 (26:19):
Income, which, by the way, did you hear that's a
big story now Connecticut's really considering it. You don't need
a job, you don't need to join the rat race.
We'll pay you to say, stagnant in one place, never moving.

(26:40):
You'll never have to desire anything in the world. It's
the matrix. You'll never want anything you'll never need anything
and everything will be provided for you. Your desire for
bigger and better and greater things that only puts you

(27:01):
in the rat race. You'll only harm yourself and others
in order to get it. In order for you to
be successful, someone has to fail. And that's not fair.
That's government. That's government every day, all day. You can't
be responsible. Let us be responsible for you. So you

(27:28):
have that party who says that you know what, illegal
immigration is good for you, even though you know it
isn't They don't work at your behaske. They don't work
with you in mind. And what is Donald Trump saying? Hey,
what do the people want? What are the people thirsting for?

(27:49):
What are they saying? How do they feel?

Speaker 2 (27:52):
Let's do that?

Speaker 3 (27:55):
Is an overwhelming group of people say we need to
get illegals out of here. Fine, let's do that working
for the will and of people. Democrats can't believe it,
because wait a minute, this is we've owned this not anymore.
If you don't want to do the will of people,
no one's gonna listen to you. You could force it

(28:15):
down their throats, but no one wants that. That's what
you did for the last what ten years, maybe even longer.
What fourteen says the Obama administration. That's what you did.
It started when you told people they couldn't they couldn't
oppose Obama in the Affordable Care Act because if you did,
you're a racist.

Speaker 2 (28:37):
I don't like his tax policies.

Speaker 3 (28:38):
You're a bigot? You mean I can't have an opinion. No,
I can't express what I think. No, if you do,
you're a racist. I can't talk to people on social
media about what I believe. No, I can't question the
question authority of people. Absolutely not, because we say it's

(29:04):
not helpful. What do you think is happening now? Do
you think a bunch of rabble rousers burning things down
like they did in twenty twenty is going to resonate
with people? You're telling them, if you resist us, we're
gonna blow stuff up. If you don't do what we say,

(29:27):
if you don't agree with us, we're gonna burn it
all down. That's how the Democrats have been running the
last fourteen fifteen years. Do you really think that that
kind of extortion is gonna work?

Speaker 2 (29:39):
Of course not.

Speaker 8 (29:43):
So.

Speaker 3 (29:43):
If you're staying out there wondering why is Donald Trump
continuing to pull better than you. It's because he's actually
doing the things that people want. You're actually behind the
eight ball on this one. You're not working with the
will of the people at all. That's why you lose.

(30:05):
We'll take your phone calls in a bit. We've got
some breaking news coming up in the next hour. We
will get to that. Mark and West Hartford has some
surprising news related to the Solomon Schechter school story.

Speaker 2 (30:20):
We've been covering.

Speaker 3 (30:21):
Here and pretty much only here with the exception of
Connecticut Inside Investigator. All Right, so roughly about three oh nine,
Mark and West Hartford's going to join us on the
phones and break more news on Solomon Schechter School. He
just told me that there's some other breaking news that
we can't break because it's private.

Speaker 2 (30:38):
But let's just say the chips are falling and not
in good ways. We'll get to that when we return.

Speaker 3 (30:46):
Stick around, more news, more views, between rounds, promotion coming
up when we return. It's Recent radio on News Talk
ten eighty WT.

Speaker 2 (30:52):
I c hey, whoa, whoa, whoa?

Speaker 1 (30:54):
Hold up one hundred candles on the cake? Who do
you think is lighting this?

Speaker 2 (31:01):
I actually like that bit.

Speaker 3 (31:02):
Anyway, we're back Recent on radio news Talk ten ADWTIIC
Coming up in headlines, we got Marked from West Hartford
with a new update on the Solomon Checkter School that's
going in an interesting direction. We'll have a conversation with
him about that. Plus on the show excuse me. On
the show today, we got Chris Powell from chrispowellcolumn dot Com.

(31:25):
We'll talk to him about the poverty situation in Connecticut
and how Connecticut is is fault failing to solve that
problem in the state, which is something I've been talking
about for the longest and it's nice to have what
you say again, Look, I'm no scholar. A lot of
this stuff that I spit is common sense. Like I

(31:48):
go over it and I run it through my head
like a thousand times. I'm no savant, but I run
through this stuff a million times. It's sure enough I
know exactly what I'm talking about.

Speaker 2 (31:58):
So Chris Powell will talk to him about that.

Speaker 3 (32:00):
In a companion article that says, in order to live
in Connecticut, you you need to have a six figure
salary in order to survive in the state. It's interesting
because I think there's the story that says Hawaii is
the most expensive state for you to live in if
you're single, and Connecticut comes in third if you're single

(32:27):
living in the state. For a family of four, it's
even more so. In fact, let me just let me see.
Let's just go to the article. It says, Connecticut has
been sometimes praised and sometimes lampooned for its reputation as
an affluent state. But just how much does someone need
to earn to live comfortably in a nutmeg state. Data

(32:50):
from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology Living Wage Calculator answers
that question for Connecticut and every other state in the country.
Financial which a website asset a smart Asset recently released
the study on the data. According to smart Asset and
MIT's Living Wage Calculator, a single person in Connecticut would

(33:13):
need to earn more than one hundred and five thousand
dollars a year to live comfortably in Connecticut. A family
of four with two working adults would need more than
two hundred and ninety.

Speaker 2 (33:27):
Thousand dollars to live comfortably.

Speaker 3 (33:30):
The study used the fifty to twenty thirty rule, which
states fifty percent of the income should go to needs,
thirty percent to want, and twenty percent should go to
paying down the debt, end savings to asset to asss
comfort is what it says, and as much more as
a whole bunch of other data that we'll get into

(33:52):
as well. That's I mean, look, I don't want to
sound crazy, but two people to live comfortably in Connecticut
need to make more than a quarter million dollars. That's
two working adults, and that's a family of four. So

(34:15):
it's two working adults with two children. You'll be able.
You live far more comfortably if you're just two working adults.

Speaker 2 (34:22):
With no kids.

Speaker 3 (34:23):
I can see why the birth rate in the state
is going down.

Speaker 2 (34:28):
It makes sense.

Speaker 3 (34:30):
So we'll talk to Chris Powell about that as well.
In the next hour. I think he's coming on. Is
it four fifteen, Yeah, he'll be on in the next hour.
We'll talk to him about that.

Speaker 2 (34:38):
Also.

Speaker 3 (34:39):
I'm going back and forth with the guy by the
name of Eric Goodman. Eric Goodman was one of the
people featured in the article in Watch My Face in
the Hartford Current. He was one of the communists that
was there. He's listening to the show because he had
never heard of me. For the first time.

Speaker 2 (34:57):
My wife was going Once he hears you, he's not
gonna come on.

Speaker 3 (35:00):
He says, he's coming on, So I'm looking forward to
talk to him tomorrow. He's still listening. I'm hoping you
come in tomorrow. Don't be scared. Don't be scared. There's
nothing to be fearful of. He says, they're not stalinist.
I don't know how you separate the two, but hopefully
he'll call in and explain that to the rest of us.

(35:20):
So we got that going on as well, plus more
news and more views. Don't forget, We've got stupidest thing
I've read today. Also what it happened was.

Speaker 2 (35:29):
To boot.

Speaker 3 (35:30):
We got traffic and weather also coming out with Jason
kenarinas with whether and Mark Christopher's and the BPS traffic Center.
John Silva's got news that's coming up in a quick minute.
What was the last thing that I said I needed
to make sure that we got in here. I think
it was, oh, yeah, global warming. We didn't get into
it today. I think I've finally figured out wherey Greta

(35:52):
Thunberg is on this Jew hating flotilla. I hear she's
also been banned out at Israel as well. She said
it she got kidnapped. What irony h But I think
I know why. I think I know why she's left
the climate change argument now because new data suggests that
we may never have to hear people screaming about global

(36:14):
warming again. It's not in vogue, which is weird, but
kind of refresh it. What will al Gore do? He
might go broke if al Gore can't run around screaming
about global warming. I mean, what's he going to do?
What's Bill Ny the science guy going to do? I apologize.

(36:37):
I shouldn't have called him that. That's a slur.

Speaker 2 (36:39):
He's not a science guy, Bill Ny, the engineer guy.
That's what he is. Because he's not a scientist. I understand.

Speaker 3 (36:46):
Dolph Lungern is more of a scientist than he is.
Dolph Lungren, who played Drago in Rocky four. It's more
of a scientist than Bill Ny the science guy. Just
think about that. The I must break you guy. That's

(37:06):
much more of a scientist. They're nerdy, old Bill Night.
I don't know I find that interesting. All right, we
gotta get some news. John Silva's coming up and we'll
be back again. Mark Chris, sorry, Mark and West Hartford's
coming up to three oh nine and then we got
Chris Powell from Chrispowell dot Com.

Speaker 2 (37:25):
We'll take a break and we'll be right back. Here's news.

Speaker 1 (37:27):
John Silva Greece on the radio making sense of the news. Yeah,
even when it makes no sense at all at all.
Now until a you t I see news. Talk to
ten eighty.

Speaker 3 (37:39):
You gotta get to market. In a second, he's on
the line. We're gonna break some news in the Solomon
check their case. When I saw this audio and I
gotta get to it. Uh, Mayor Karen Bass. It is
according to reports here and I just I'm reading this headline.
It says Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass threatens Feds to
withdraw from l the violence will escalate.

Speaker 2 (38:03):
Let's just play her audio.

Speaker 9 (38:05):
We need to stop the raids. She should not be
happening in our city. It is not warranted and it
does any The only thing it does is contribute to chaos.
This was chaos that was started in Washington, DC on Thursday.
The city was peaceful on Friday. It was not because

(38:26):
of the intervention of the federal government.

Speaker 6 (38:29):
We need to.

Speaker 3 (38:32):
I'm gonna give her a little bit of grace here,
but she's not helping. Ice has every right to go
into that state and do its duty to get illegals
who broke federal law to get them out of state.

Speaker 2 (38:49):
That's kind of how this works. So I don't know.

Speaker 1 (38:54):
We'll see, we'll see.

Speaker 2 (38:56):
All right, let's get to it.

Speaker 3 (38:59):
I didn't expect us to happen by our phone call
earlier that said we needed to break some more news
in the Solomon Scheckter case, and so we will. On
the line with us, are intrepid on the street journalist
Mark in West Hartford's on the line.

Speaker 2 (39:18):
Mark.

Speaker 3 (39:19):
So Solomon Scheckter is back in the news, or at
least you're getting a scoop on something that is about
to hit the news again.

Speaker 4 (39:26):
In this case, so allegations, nonetheless, but I believe that
you know, it's gonna come out, you know, soon, as
far as me having paperwork on my hands.

Speaker 10 (39:39):
To validate it.

Speaker 4 (39:40):
But you know, these things, this is sad to report this,
you know, when children are involved. I don't. It's not
gratifying to break.

Speaker 10 (39:50):
Stuff like this.

Speaker 4 (39:51):
Yeah, but so let's back up. The first time you
and I talked about a school that I really didn't
even know much about, Solomon Scheckter. Surprise at school for
the Jewish community in West Harford. There was a few
months ago. I called you on a Friday and I
told you that a teacher had been arrested, Nicholas Ricky
Arty or inappropriately touching a kid his mos he likes

(40:14):
to tickle, and he was arrested within twenty four hours.
The head of the school, Rabbi Burger, responded to the
community with an email. He had been trying to cover
things up for months prior to me and you talking
about it. The funny thing was a sad thing. Rather
is the media took three weeks to cover it. So

(40:37):
after what I tell you today, I think the opposite
is going to happen because the teacher is no longer
in the school and he's gone out of the picture.
So I think the opposite is where we're not going
to hear from the school probably at all, never mind
three weeks later. But I have a feeling the media
who's listening WFSBTNH, NBC, Connecticut Fix sixty one, the current

(41:00):
feeling you might see something, maybe not in twenty four hours,
but within forty eight hours. So here's the thing. This,
Nicholas Rickyardo after we initially talked about Solomon Scheckter. What
happened a couple months later, and this is what happens
with the scandal, similar to what we saw with the
Catholic Church. It comes in drips and drafts. Well, we
found out he was re arrested for a second case

(41:23):
of inappropriate touching from a different schools called Saint Gabriel's.
That was his employee employer rather from prior to Solomon Scheckter.

Speaker 2 (41:32):
Yeah, so let's make sure that, we said, Solomon, let's.

Speaker 3 (41:34):
Make sure that everybody. So we got we got an
arrest related to the Solomon Scheckter school. Then we get
a second arrest related to another school that in essence
has happened before the Solomon Schechter incident, so.

Speaker 2 (41:48):
They actually happened in reverse.

Speaker 3 (41:50):
We get an arrest on the latter school, and then
a second arrest on the former school.

Speaker 4 (41:56):
Exactly, and that was called Saint Gabriel's and Windsor I
believe Windsor wins the last. Now I get a call
this morning telling me that there was an application by
the West Harford Police Department to get another warrant for
an arrest for Nicholas Ricardo again for now another case

(42:18):
of inappropriate touching at Solomon Schechter. Now I just got
it was confirmed. Again. I don't have paperwork in my hands,
but I'm gonna tell you something. If I'm coming on
telling you this, I'm like all in on it. I'm
not ninety nine, I'm one hundred percent sure this is
all happening. Well, then then they went ahead and they

(42:39):
signed off on it, and they will be if he
has been arrested. Maybe he's being arrested right now as
I'm talking, but he will now be arrested for a
third time. But getting back to what I said about
the Catholic Church, I really think that you know, this
is a tough case for parents because I think now
they might want to readdress it with your children. They
might have him watch grad you be an appearent at

(43:02):
either Saint Gabriel's or Solomon Schetter. I think I know
what I would have done with my three boys to say, hey,
you know this teacher. Have you ever been near him?
If they're not in the same class, I would start
asking have you ever seen him tickle, touch, rug, hug whatever?

Speaker 10 (43:20):
And get to it.

Speaker 4 (43:21):
Well, now you know whether you know they well, yeah,
but you know he's a nice guy or whatever. I think, now,
what's gonna happen? You know, when one turns to two
to three within a few months, I think, Reece, you
know where this smoke? This fire?

Speaker 2 (43:37):
You know, I think the bigger you would probably.

Speaker 4 (43:39):
Rather talk about something.

Speaker 3 (43:40):
Else, but going oh no, no, I think that no, And
I think the bigger problem here is And as Mark
Fitch of Connecticut Inside Investigator, his story, although focused on
this right on the on the touching portion of it,
his main focus was the lack of transparent garancy by
the Solomon Scheckter School. And that becomes problematic because you

(44:05):
and I, who have talked about this, you know, for
months now, if not almost a year now, we have
been covering stories very similar to this that are blown up.
The biggest problem that you and I have had in
many people who listen to this program and some parents
who listen and don't call in the biggest problem that
they're having is that the people who are supposed to

(44:26):
be responsible, the people who are supposed to report these
things manual reporters. What do we call them? We call them,
I'm sorry, what's the term that they use?

Speaker 1 (44:38):
Reporter?

Speaker 2 (44:39):
Mandated reporters? Thank you? Mandated reporters.

Speaker 3 (44:43):
Yea, These mandated reporters are the ones who are dropping
the ball. So it's not so much that we have
to focus on the perpetrators.

Speaker 2 (44:52):
We now have to worry about the establishment.

Speaker 3 (44:56):
Right It's Solomon right now, Solomon Checkter is in the
crossed hair cross because by not doing what they're supposed
to do one report protect the kids, they protected themselves
and admonished the parents who wanted answers. So we're seeing
this Cromwell was the same case, you know, and even
in the case with the news at ram High School,

(45:18):
no one wanted to come forward and tell anyone in
the community what they knew and when they knew it,
and what they were doing to remedy it. And this
is where my argument has sort of blown up, is like,
what is Connecticut doing by staying silent and what's warsoft?
Is the news media turning a blind eye to it

(45:41):
while the people who they are supposed to be reporting to,
while the people they're supposed to be reporting to know nothing.

Speaker 4 (45:49):
Well, you know, you brought up Cromwell, which in some cases,
I mean in some of the other cases, I never
had this happen. I actually talked to yes or row, Yeah,
to the police officer at Cromwell High School that wouldn't
put a formal complaint. Then when those twins said that.

Speaker 2 (46:07):
They were assaulted, did on you know it.

Speaker 4 (46:10):
Was a hate crime? And I asked him and that's
when I got turned to the chief. She said he
wouldn't even take my citizen complaint. I literally have it
in an email. He said that he won't accept my
complaint because I said, somebody needs to investigate. To this day,
you know that Cromwell Police Department is not investigating that
hate crime in Trauma High School.

Speaker 3 (46:31):
Can I tell you what was? Can I tell you
where I was the most outraged? And you know me,
if I pulled the race card. It's usually tongue in cheek,
but I got to mention it because at the same
amount of time, within months of the Cromwell School story.
And for those of you who don't know, let me
give you a quick synopsis, two young black girls were

(46:52):
assaulted at the Cromwell High School by a white kids
if not I think it was a white male, were assaulted,
spat on, called names, and this was all reported to
the school district. We're talking about a racial intimidation case,
A racial assault case, and even the NAACP of Hartford

(47:14):
or Black Lives Matter eight sixty said nothing. It was
a layup for them, and they were silent.

Speaker 2 (47:23):
They sooner ran to mind you.

Speaker 4 (47:25):
I'm sorry to interrupt. I got a remind you reach.
I got hold of both of them, yeah, and asked
them to go with me to the police station, because
you know, even though they said they wouldn't accept me
yea in my complaint, you know, if I showed up
with them.

Speaker 3 (47:40):
Of course they wouldn't shoulder.

Speaker 4 (47:42):
What were they gonna do that?

Speaker 2 (47:43):
Exactly? They would have literally they were written.

Speaker 3 (47:46):
They would have written a complaint for Black Lives Matter,
for n DOUBLEACP. They would have written it for Here's
here's the crazy part about that, mind you. While those
two young ladies were resulted at Cromwell, right, NUBA ACP
doesn't show up, Black Lives Matter eight sixty doesn't show up.
But what did they show up for a girl who
was sent home because her hair was colored wrong and

(48:10):
because her father was a former NFL player.

Speaker 2 (48:12):
Now again, like I said, it takes all times.

Speaker 4 (48:16):
And we had Susan byss and Rose show up at
a rally, So guess what we're taking credit again, You
and I shut.

Speaker 2 (48:24):
That down exactly we did.

Speaker 4 (48:26):
It was put off to a later date. When's the
later date, Scott at Dale. Yes, guy is nowhere to
be found. If you notice, when's the last time you
saw him in front of the camera or saw a
quote in the paper?

Speaker 2 (48:38):
Nothing? Last year, nothing, nothing.

Speaker 4 (48:40):
This guy knows now. We called him out week in highlights.
He's an easy fraud, too easy.

Speaker 2 (48:46):
But that's another thing.

Speaker 3 (48:48):
That's another thing that again, that that always that baffles
me with all of this, is that you know, and
I'll even go one step further in the back to
the Solomon Checkter School. What of the one of the
parents or both of the parents for that matter, who
came forward at Solomon Scheckter. There was no support for

(49:10):
those individuals at all. Nobody, even in the Jewish community,
came forward to protect those parents when they were being
maligned by the school. And it's documented in Connecticut Inside Investigator.
By the way, no other network and no other newspaper
has followed up from that school.

Speaker 2 (49:29):
This is an absolute cover up in a crime.

Speaker 3 (49:31):
But which lends me to believe Mark and I think
that is one hundred percent true. I believe that the
state knows that it's going on, and I think that
they want to turn a blind eye.

Speaker 2 (49:42):
I think that they're.

Speaker 3 (49:43):
Accepting that this is behavior that's going on in the state,
and I don't think that anyone's ever going to touch
it until they're forced to.

Speaker 4 (49:52):
And here's the one sad part from me again, I
think the word sad. I'm angry. Everything I was frustrated
is you know, I got a couple of friends is
at TV news stations, and the one that disappointed me
the most was and I won't say any names now
because I want to burn a bridge just yet, but
they said to me, because you and I broke it

(50:12):
on the radio and Mark Fitz covered it on social media,
that we basically there's nothing there, there's nothing else to report.
And I had told them that was just a couple
of days ago. I said, what are you talking about?
You think this is it? They said, you don't think
there's others. And now look at two days later, we
have a third arrest, and we have TV stations that

(50:34):
know about They know about it. I know people in
other stations, not just one. They don't want to cover it.
I sent the email from the mother you interviewed to
every news department. I've attached it to the people who
answer the phone, tell me attention to me.

Speaker 10 (50:49):
I said that.

Speaker 4 (50:50):
I said she's willing to get interviewed by anybody any time.

Speaker 1 (50:55):
You know.

Speaker 4 (50:55):
Not one of the not Fox sixty one, NBC Connecticut, FSBOR,
P and H has yet to contact the mother. This
never happens. When I tell you, attorneys, I know, cut
these people down.

Speaker 2 (51:08):
It never happens.

Speaker 4 (51:10):
And they're not taking her up on her she's offered
that shouldn't even be an offer.

Speaker 3 (51:15):
Again if her I really do believe that there are
a look and again I have. I couldn't even fathom why.
It's it's insanity, but it's it's just the way that
it is.

Speaker 4 (51:30):
Can I got to get this in because I don't
know about time wise. I want to read one thing
I came across again today. People send me stuff. It's unbelievable.
I'm just gonna read this. I have four children to
provide for bills from my house insurance. I need to
survive to supply for five people, including myself. I can't

(51:52):
afford the amount they've been taking. This is somebody who's
having uh their wages garness because of lack of payment
on a car. And I'm not going to give anybody's name,
but this is the mother of Nick Rickyardo's child. Remember
he had a baby. Remember he took a leave of absence.
Remember Rabbi Burger was using this this thing, but he's

(52:15):
not even taking This baby was born eight months ago.
This lady's raising his baby along with along with three others.
This is the type of guy we got. Nobody wants
to cover it. Why.

Speaker 2 (52:26):
I don't know, I don't know.

Speaker 4 (52:28):
It's it's shot on so many levels.

Speaker 2 (52:30):
I will tell you can I tell you what? Can
I tell you what?

Speaker 3 (52:32):
Somebody what someone did tell me though, I will tell
you this off the record. I mean, I tall there's
on the record, but I'll keep their name off the record.
Somebody said that this was this was racially motivated. Then
the non reporting. That's what I heard.

Speaker 4 (52:52):
Well, I mean, I mean, do we want to go
there is is he?

Speaker 3 (52:56):
I don't know, I don't know, I don't know that's right,
like I said, But.

Speaker 4 (53:01):
I mean I don't even personally see I really you
know what. Maybe it's me brought up and hard for
being a firefighter.

Speaker 2 (53:11):
Collor no do god?

Speaker 4 (53:13):
I mean, I mean, I mean but but I.

Speaker 11 (53:17):
Mark the media mark.

Speaker 3 (53:25):
These people, unfortunately, are overwhelmingly motivated by things like race
and transgenderism and LGBT. It's a totem pole. It's what
I call the totem pole of a victimhood. And and
based upon your hierarchy on that totem pole is what

(53:46):
they're going to protect. And when this person told me
that it was off, it was the last part of
our conversation. I said, do you think that played a
role and I and I really really thought this person
was going to say, Oh, no, that's ridiculous. They went, oh, absolutely,
that's exactly what I think this is about.

Speaker 2 (54:05):
So that's where we are.

Speaker 4 (54:07):
What's the over what's the over and underreach that the
local media now will cover all It took him a
while for the first arrest.

Speaker 2 (54:14):
Print media.

Speaker 3 (54:15):
It'll be print media online on any one of the
websites on if it's a television network, they'll put it
on their website about it. I doubt they'll report it
over And if they do report it, it'll probably be
on a weekend broadcast on a Friday.

Speaker 4 (54:30):
And and now will they double back? I'm their mistake
and now talk to.

Speaker 3 (54:35):
Only only if the story that you can't tell if
that makes news because.

Speaker 2 (54:42):
They because we don't.

Speaker 3 (54:42):
We we have another part of the story, folks, Just
to let you know, we have another part of the
story that we cannot report yet, and that's because of
legal reasons. But let me just put it to this way.
It's a part. It's a very very damaging part of
the story. Let's just say, the results of all of
this that's going on is going to have a con
significant and considerable backlash once this particular part of the

(55:04):
story comes out, the result or the reaction to said
interest in this story, once that part of the story
comes out, Yeah, then they'll start covering it.

Speaker 4 (55:14):
Last question, it shouldn't you guys all feed off each
other When I say, you guys at thinking of light
to me radio and TV for them to tell me
because print and radio covered it or social media covered
it already, we're not going to cover it because it's
not this is like do they think that?

Speaker 12 (55:33):
So?

Speaker 4 (55:33):
I mean they must think hyly of you and Mark
Fitch thinking like, well, they must have got to everybody
in Connecticut. We're not going to cover it.

Speaker 10 (55:42):
Yeah, I think that's it.

Speaker 3 (55:44):
I think that that might be a newsroom decision, and
you have to think about that because if the newsroom says,
or the editor's death says no, we don't want to
cover that, or there's no interest in it, then they
won't cover it.

Speaker 2 (55:56):
They'll just leave it be. I mean, that's just how
it is. It sucks, but it's just how it is.
You know, you can have the greatest story ever.

Speaker 3 (56:02):
But I'll send you a video about that and you'll
understand exactly what I'm talking about.

Speaker 4 (56:07):
I'll send you a video weak another story next week
somewhere else. I think you're gonna get it all right.

Speaker 2 (56:12):
Thank you, man, I appreciate you. Mark Christopher.

Speaker 3 (56:14):
Mark Christopher is coming up in traffic, Mark and West
Hartford folks. Of course, with more information on the Solomon
Structor School, another arrest is pending, if it hasn't happened already,
based upon the same case that happened.

Speaker 2 (56:29):
A couple of months ago.

Speaker 3 (56:30):
You remember the interview I did with two parents that
those children went to the Solomon Charcter School. Those children
have both both been removed from the school since the
incident has taken place, and because of the school's reaction
to the scandal, and it's uh, it's growing it's becoming
a groundshol so the parties, I mean, the story, I

(56:51):
should say, is not over for Solomon Scheckter. When this
news breaks, you'll see exactly what we're talking about.

Speaker 2 (56:58):
So we know all of that much much more, and.

Speaker 3 (57:00):
We come back more headlines also Chris Powell of Chrispowell
dot com Again, chrispowellof Chrispowell dot com. We'll come back
talking about poverty in the state of Connecticut and why
poor people cannot get ahead with a companion's story about
needing six figures to live comfortably in.

Speaker 2 (57:18):
The state of Connecticut. Yeah, it's a it's that rough.
We'll be back.

Speaker 3 (57:24):
News is coming up with John Silva and we'll return.
It's Rees on the radio on News Talk ten ADWT.

Speaker 1 (57:28):
I see it's Rid's Reese on the radio and ask
your doctor of common sense? Is right for youd w
T I sies and we're back.

Speaker 3 (57:39):
Of course, Uh, we got headlines. We finally know why
Greta is on a flotilla and not screaming about climate change,
and that's primarily because climate change has turned out to
be a farce according to reports. That's what we know
according to satellite data and measurements. There are weather stations

(58:02):
that were collected by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration
that's CALLEDA eight that between nineteen ninety eight and twenty
twenty four showed that global temperatures are indeed rising, but
not always at the pace that early models predicted. For example,
the observed warming over the last twenty five years has

(58:24):
averaged about zero point one to three celsius per decade,
which is slightly lower than the point of the zero
point two celsius per decade projected by some earlier models.

Speaker 2 (58:38):
In twenty twenty three.

Speaker 3 (58:40):
The World Meteorological Organization or WMO, reported that while the
past decade was the warmest on record, several years showed
only moderate increases. Some scientists point to these trends as
evidence that current climate models may overstate the rate of
future warming. Might remember that, you know, people like Alexandra

(59:02):
Alcossio Cortes. We're running around telling people we've only got
twelve years, and then twelve years goes by, it to nothing, right,
two thousand and one underwater, twenty ten underwater. Every year,
every ten years, it's the same nonsense. Well, now it
looks like they're gonna have to push back, you know,

(59:24):
sort of lay back on the climate change thing. I
think two things are happening here. I think the first
thing that's happening is every year polling data pushes climate
change further and further down the top ten list. I
think the last time we checked it was at seven
or eight. Like healthcare is always at the top of

(59:47):
the list, climate change always gets lower and lower. I
kind of feel like people you know, live their life
for now. As much as you say we have to
save the planet for our grandchildren. I have a feeling
why that often falls on deaf ears.

Speaker 2 (01:00:06):
Just think about this as psychologically.

Speaker 3 (01:00:10):
If climate activists are saying we need to restore or
protect the planet your future generations, at the same time,
telling this generation that having children will further pollute the
earth makes them not have future children or grandchildren. So

(01:00:35):
if you're not having kids, there's no future for you
to consider, because it's just you. Climate activists have made
you so selfish. Once you're dead and gone, you're dead
and gone. She don't really have to worry about climate
change after that, you've done your part. It's better than
buying a prius. You just get your tubes tied just

(01:01:00):
saying that's it. That's all. Do whatever you need to do.
You're not ever gonna have a kid. That's why worry
about the future if there is none for you. That's
why I think climate change gets further and further down
the list.

Speaker 2 (01:01:16):
That's all I'm saying.

Speaker 3 (01:01:18):
By the way, DOJ official Ed Martin last Month's revealed
that there are three gate keepers who are allegedly selling
access to former President Joe Biden's auto pen. He believes
that those three staffers were Biden's chief of staff Ron Klain,
senior White House advisor Anita Donne, and Joe biden attorney

(01:01:40):
Bob Bauer. They also revealed that there may have been,
or very likely have been, a third auto pen that
was used for commutations or pardons for the likes of
Liz Cheney. Doctor found Adam Shift that investigation is ongoing,

(01:02:05):
but that's what we're hearing as of late. And lastly,
before I grabbed the phone calls, I didn't know this,
but you know, there are a lot of people who
have been protesting in Connecticut and if you've seen it,
there are some people who've been putting these signs over
the highways. If you drive by eighty four or something

(01:02:26):
like that. You'll see that some of these people have
put a signage over the highways talking about what's going
on politically, you know, screw Trump or you know, no
totalitarians and all this other stuff. Stop the autocrats, the autocracy,
I should say. And now there's a report coming out

(01:02:49):
of what is the I forget who the unit, I mean,
the company is, who wrote the article, and just for
someone reason, I just lost it. I had it right
in front of well, apparently there are some people who
are being pulled over.

Speaker 2 (01:03:03):
Oh here it is. This is coming from which outlet
is this?

Speaker 3 (01:03:07):
I don't even know which outlet this is anyway, Trump
protesters on the highway overpasses in Connecticut are getting visits
from the Connecticut State Police. In a time which politics
has caused significant divisions, protests have become more common, specifically
protest overpasses. A group of those protesters have faced scrutiny
in recent months, getting at least three visits from state police.

(01:03:29):
What has followed has been an argument over the right
to protest and where the protest can happen. Among those
protesters is a woman by the name of Catherine Hines,
who has taken part at about thirty protests since Trump's
took office on January twentieth.

Speaker 2 (01:03:45):
Get a Job, Catherine, Get a Job.

Speaker 3 (01:03:50):
Hines filed the former complaint against the state Police, stating
that the time that the officer or the same officer
had visited her home at least three times and allegens
the officer's behavior was harassment and we believe a violation
of our constitutional rights, she said. The Connecticut State Police
has disagreed, replying officially to Hines that the trooper was

(01:04:14):
acting in accordinance with the law and departmental procedures. No
arrest have been made, and no discipline has been issued.
Based upon the facts and circumstances, the trooper had reasonable
suspicion to believe that you were engaged in criminal trespass
on state property. Heines and upfellow protesters have been seen

(01:04:34):
on several overpasses in the New Haven region with signs
that say things like no grads, save democracy and resistance
is not futile. We've only once had the president's name
on a sign, Hind said. Mostly they see things that
are pretty generic about tariffs or tyranny, different messages every time.

(01:04:59):
Heinz that three times so far, at the Cherry Hill
Bridge on I ninety five in Branford and the Howard
Avenue Bridge over I ninety five and new Haven. The
same trooper approached her group and requested identification.

Speaker 2 (01:05:13):
So if you're thinking about doing this, think about it.

Speaker 3 (01:05:16):
People are considering pressing charges if you are on state property,
so be careful. It's like zero five two two wt.
I see, I believe in your constitutional rights. Just don't
break the law. That's all I'm saying it. Don't burn
anything down. It's like zero five to two two wt.
I s Let's take Bruce in South Windsor how are
you Bruce?

Speaker 13 (01:05:33):
Hey Larice, two quick comics I want to make. You
were talking about used to be global warming out climate change. Yeah,
I don't agree to that. But if you you're two days.
First point, if you look at you get a law find.

Speaker 4 (01:05:45):
There's all sorts of research.

Speaker 13 (01:05:46):
The polar ice caps are that are fall apart every
day in melting. You should come all the way down
to North America. That's why we had all the granted up.
The ice push all the granted up. They've been melting
for millions and millions and millions a years and they're
gonna come back someday. The other twenty billionaires are gonna
come back the climate changes.

Speaker 4 (01:06:03):
That's the first point.

Speaker 13 (01:06:04):
Second point, if we just matterically beer with me, if
we stopped the United States stopped admitting a mission any pollution,
zero pollution tomorrow, it will make absolusly no impact because
of China and India.

Speaker 3 (01:06:16):
Indeed, you know, and it's funny because there's a green
piece in China that's not allowed to criticize China.

Speaker 13 (01:06:26):
It's amazing they flew so much are are and we
have decreted the decreased depleted pollution to a major EXCEP.
Factories are very efficient.

Speaker 4 (01:06:35):
They have smoke up.

Speaker 13 (01:06:37):
Ears and all that stuff. I don't know what the
exact names for it, but our factory we do it.

Speaker 3 (01:06:43):
Hey, look everything that we do in this country. If
you look at every other industrial country, as you mentioned
India and China in particular.

Speaker 2 (01:06:51):
Who, by the way, pollute far more. I think it's
like how many.

Speaker 3 (01:06:55):
I think it's like fifteen coal mines a week China
is building, Is that correct?

Speaker 2 (01:07:00):
It's something along that line.

Speaker 3 (01:07:02):
Yeah, So those guys I mean, and and by the way,
those countries India and China. Are they a part of
the Paris climbing accord? Yes they are?

Speaker 2 (01:07:15):
Is that crazy?

Speaker 4 (01:07:16):
It's crazy world.

Speaker 13 (01:07:17):
We live a created crazy world. And and and those
those wiots, right yeah, everyone, all those Democrats. It is
a third point. I just saw it. Everyone went after
Trump for the j January seventh.

Speaker 12 (01:07:28):
Right.

Speaker 13 (01:07:28):
Trump said, don't run, as say com Saint Peter Ball.
These guys are from the mayor, the government promoting these riots,
and no one's going after them.

Speaker 3 (01:07:38):
Isn't that crazy that not one of them have even Again,
I'm almost certain I have the audio. Joe Biden did
a speech that said, not once did Donald Trump even
tell his supporters to back down and to go home.

Speaker 2 (01:07:53):
And now look.

Speaker 3 (01:07:54):
Five years later to Karen Bass and to and to
Gavin Newsom, not have they tweeted the same thing.

Speaker 2 (01:08:02):
Not once.

Speaker 14 (01:08:04):
It's a crazy world.

Speaker 2 (01:08:06):
Thank you, sir, much appreciated.

Speaker 3 (01:08:09):
Uh gosh, she always calls me when I have a
couple of minutes left. I may have to Yeah, you
know what, I'll take him now, doctor Steve, what's going on, sir?

Speaker 10 (01:08:20):
I do seem to always do that.

Speaker 15 (01:08:22):
Yeah, I wanted to call and talk about actually a
climate change. Uh okay, and in particular, I'm always amazed,
first of all, that climate change is a political issue,
Like I don't I struggle as a physician scientist to
like understand why this is something that seems to cross
or end up in party lines.

Speaker 2 (01:08:40):
Can I tell you? Can I tell you what?

Speaker 3 (01:08:42):
If you're not understanding, let me tell you briefly why
it's a political issue, because and I I've seen this
in a lot of the Senate hearings and the congressional
hearings on climate change.

Speaker 12 (01:08:53):
Uh.

Speaker 3 (01:08:54):
In fact, look up what's his name? Uh, John Kennedy,
Louisiana's editor John Kennedy.

Speaker 2 (01:09:01):
Look up some of his exchanges with these people.

Speaker 3 (01:09:04):
He asked the one question over and over again, how
much is it going to cost taxpayers in order to
fulfill their dreams about stopping climate change? And the numbers
have always fluctuated in or around fifty four to seventy
two trillion dollars. And that's the political notion, is that, yes,

(01:09:28):
they want us to get these zero emissions, but the
two things they can't tell us is one how much
it would cost and also what result we get if
we went to zero emissions. They don't have that answer.
So it's like you want us to do it because
you say so, but you don't have any answers.

Speaker 2 (01:09:46):
Go ahead.

Speaker 15 (01:09:47):
But that's an argument about strategy, it's not an argument
about belief. And I think the problem is that by
politicians on the right condemning the cost of making changes,
it's interpreted by the public as climate science does not
exist or it's invalid, which is patently false and problematic.

(01:10:09):
You can have a financial debate about how to address
climate change, but as soon as you start to dismiss
that it even exists, then how do we even have
a conversation about it?

Speaker 10 (01:10:19):
Right?

Speaker 15 (01:10:19):
I mean, you just provided some statistics. Do you believe
just to make sure on the same patre, do you
believe that the Earth is warming?

Speaker 8 (01:10:27):
Uh?

Speaker 2 (01:10:27):
Yeah, of course I do? Yeah?

Speaker 8 (01:10:29):
Yeah, Okay.

Speaker 15 (01:10:30):
Do you believe that that that is driven by Shuman intervention?

Speaker 2 (01:10:35):
No?

Speaker 15 (01:10:37):
So you think that even if there was no humans
on a planet right now, this would happen, This would
happen anyway.

Speaker 2 (01:10:42):
Yeah, And I'll tell you this past thirty or forty years.

Speaker 15 (01:10:45):
It's just a coincidence that's going on right now.

Speaker 3 (01:10:47):
And I'll tell you why. And I'm going to use
the word belief, because one I always lay my evidence
in front of me. But because I wasn't planning on
having this discussion, I'm going to use belief. But it
is really what I know. But I'm going to put
it to you this way. I always use it as
why is it that no one ever counts before human

(01:11:11):
existence what the climate was like on the Earth when
we know that at that time it was far more
warm than it is today.

Speaker 2 (01:11:20):
And that's a fact.

Speaker 15 (01:11:21):
Yeah, right, And that's a question which there's a ready
answer to. I mean, it's about the rate of change.
You know, the planet has gone through periods of warming
and cooling, But the ten warmest years in the history
of the recorded temperatures on Earth have been in the
past the past fifteen years from last year twenty twenty

(01:11:42):
four was the warmest year on record. And this isn't
like US Democrats saying this, there's no such thing as
a Democrat science and Republican science. This is the global
consensus that the ten warmest years on record have been
within the past fifteen years, and last year was the
warmest year ever. When you're talking about what you're talking
about changes to the planets over it's you know, many

(01:12:04):
million year history of course, there's been ships that happen
over hundreds of thousands of years, but never in fifty years.
When you see change happening in fifty years that happens
to coincide with the industrialization of man, with like dramatic
changes in carbon production on our planet, there's nothing else
to blame.

Speaker 10 (01:12:21):
You can't.

Speaker 15 (01:12:22):
We're not closer to the Earth. We're not having like
massive changes to our you know, to other sort of
astronomical things. Literally, the only thing that has changed to
Earth is the rate at which we are, you know,
producing CO two given two.

Speaker 2 (01:12:37):
And even if.

Speaker 3 (01:12:38):
That's the case, here's one of the cases that this
is always the argument because you know who makes this argument,
John Kerry makes this argument often, and he never ever
has that conversation when he's when he's confronted with it,
he always looks silly doing it. Have you ever seen
that exchange between him and Thomas Massey?

Speaker 2 (01:12:58):
I don't think so, okay.

Speaker 3 (01:12:59):
I want you to listen to this, and this is
exactly why it has become a political issue because people
who are talking about it always stop short of the
important facts.

Speaker 2 (01:13:11):
Let's listen real quick.

Speaker 3 (01:13:12):
Thomas Massey talking to John Kerry about global warming.

Speaker 16 (01:13:17):
Okay, what's the consensus on parts per million of CO
two in the atmosphere?

Speaker 2 (01:13:22):
About four six, four hundred and six today? Okay, four
oh six. Are you aware three.

Speaker 17 (01:13:26):
Hundred and fifty being the level that scientists have said
is danger.

Speaker 16 (01:13:30):
Okay, are you aware three hundred fifty is dangerous?

Speaker 17 (01:13:33):
Well?

Speaker 2 (01:13:33):
Are you aware that.

Speaker 16 (01:13:34):
Since mammals have walked the planet, the average has been
over a thousand parts per million?

Speaker 2 (01:13:40):
Yeah, but we weren't walking on the planet. It's let
me just share with you that we now know.

Speaker 17 (01:13:47):
That definitively, at no point during the least the past
eight hundred thousand years has atmospheric CO two been as
high as it is today.

Speaker 16 (01:13:57):
The reason you chose eight hundred thousand years ago is
because for two hundred million years before that, it was
greater than it is today.

Speaker 2 (01:14:06):
And I'm going to say, for the record, yeah, but
there weren't human beings.

Speaker 1 (01:14:09):
I mean, there was a different world, folks.

Speaker 2 (01:14:11):
We didn't have some billion people.

Speaker 16 (01:14:13):
How to get to two thousand parts per million if
we humans weren't.

Speaker 17 (01:14:16):
Here, because there were all kinds of geologic events happening
on Earth which spewed the geology.

Speaker 2 (01:14:21):
Stop when we got on the planet.

Speaker 1 (01:14:24):
This German, I'm this is just not a serious conversation.

Speaker 2 (01:14:28):
It is a serious conversation. Did it stop when we
got on the planet.

Speaker 3 (01:14:33):
And he's suggesting that it was higher before humans hit
the Earth, and now it's a problem that it's lower
when humans are on the Earth. It doesn't make sense,
it doesn't jive. It sounds like a grift Goud your response.

Speaker 15 (01:14:48):
Yeah, I mean a lot of times a thing doesn't
make sense because we're not getting into the weeds to
have the detailed conversation about it. So I thing may
appear not to make sense, but only because you don't
have the details to make it make sense. The big
factor here, as I alluded to, is the time issue.
We're talking about a change that's happened in fifty years
as opposed to a change that happens over fifty thousand years.

(01:15:09):
So yes, the Earth will still exist a thousand years
from now, whether climate change happens or not. But you know,
thirty million years ago, dinosaurs didn't care if the sea
levels rose by two feet. But no matter.

Speaker 3 (01:15:24):
But okay, now again, see now you're getting into this
is where you get into the weeds. Right, So dinosaurs
don't have to care because you know, they got to
bring the size of a peanut. But us, right, but
the rest of us, you know, who have morals and ethics,
we should be thinking about these things. Which again, look,
my argument about that is is like some people who.

Speaker 2 (01:15:46):
Think that they're being morally you know, I don't know
what's the word I'm looking for.

Speaker 3 (01:15:52):
I think I think the moral argument is fair, but
not without content making them no, no, not you, not you,
not you, not you.

Speaker 15 (01:16:01):
Okay, okay, okay, I'm just saying trying to make a
moral argument there.

Speaker 2 (01:16:05):
People always talk about.

Speaker 3 (01:16:06):
Look, I think it's I think it's nice that people
feel like they want to save the planet. I think
that they are feeling important, like they are doing their
part because they're saving Mother Earth. Is a great thing,
but a lot of it is lofty. At best, it's
incredibly lofty.

Speaker 15 (01:16:23):
I think the conversation should be about economics. It shouldn't
be about whether climate science is true. That that's my
that's the thrust of my argument. The entire global consensus
is that climate change is happening, it's human driven. There
there is no such thing as republicans.

Speaker 3 (01:16:39):
Well, how about this one, I'll I'll let you go
with this one. I'll let you go with this one,
doctor Steve. Even if it is happening, do we have
to look at it in a negative way that it's happening,
Because that's I think that we can accept that the
globe is warming or the globe is changing. It's the
question of whether or not that's a good or a
bad thing is the problem?

Speaker 15 (01:17:00):
Right, Yeah, that's totally fair. I mean, that's a conversation.

Speaker 3 (01:17:03):
We're having exactly. Thank you, doctor Steve, as always. Man,
you're fantastic, man. I thank you so much. Man, you
have no idea. I love it when you call.

Speaker 2 (01:17:11):
Man. We'll take a break. Let's get some weather in traffic.

Speaker 3 (01:17:13):
With Jason Katarina and Mark Christopher's in the BPS traffic center.

Speaker 2 (01:17:16):
How are we doing?

Speaker 1 (01:17:17):
Mark is Reese on the radio, brind don't say we
didn't more than you on News Talk ten eighty w
T I see, I see all right.

Speaker 2 (01:17:28):
When we come up, we will have.

Speaker 3 (01:17:32):
I forget his name, Chris Powell from Chrispowell dot com
or chrispowellcolumn dot com will.

Speaker 2 (01:17:38):
Be on the show. We'll talk to him. In fact,
there he is right there.

Speaker 3 (01:17:40):
We'll get him on in a couple of minutes, we'll
talk to him about this article about the poverty in Connecticut.
It's about there's a little bit of universal income and
a little bit of medicaids spending a Medicaid costs in
the article. But we'll talk about all of that because
it's so far reaching for a short article. It's got

(01:18:01):
a lot of stuff in it. And I want to talk
to him a little bit about another article that I
think debtails with this, about how much it costs to
actually live in Connecticut comfortably and if that may be
contributing to why it's so difficult to live in this state. Also,
in the next half hour, you may have heard at
the top of the hour, John Silva, which talking about

(01:18:23):
the Meriton High School kid that has been detained with
his father.

Speaker 2 (01:18:29):
I'm going to kick a hornet's nest on this story.

Speaker 3 (01:18:36):
Because I find something very peculiar about the reporting, and
I think it's being done on purpose.

Speaker 2 (01:18:47):
I think.

Speaker 3 (01:18:50):
There is a lie being told here, and I think
that whatever's going on is being done on purpose so
that you can be outraged and at the same time
have the facts kept from you. And it's a real
it's an artful little dodge that the media does. I

(01:19:11):
went everywhere looking for this story and I found one
peculiar piece of information that isn't there, and it should be,
but it's not, especially if you want to humanize this story.
So I'll talk about that after we have a conversation

(01:19:34):
with Chris Powell. So stick around for that. This Maloney
high school kid. Something's up and I know it.

Speaker 2 (01:19:43):
Let's get it.

Speaker 3 (01:19:43):
Another check of weather in traffic Jason Calerina's got weather,
Mark chris Ner, He's in the BPS traffic center.

Speaker 1 (01:19:49):
Hey, Mark, it's rises on the radio. Ask your doctor
of common Sensus, right for you, right for you? On
News Talk tennady w T I.

Speaker 3 (01:19:59):
See more news and more views and you can shake
a stick at We will get into the Meriden Maloney
high school story in a little bit, but first we
have a guest. Ah I'd like to call him a
friend in a room, even though I haven't had him
on for a long time journalist reporter mister Chris Powell

(01:20:21):
of chrispowellcolumn dot com is on the line.

Speaker 2 (01:20:24):
Welcome back, sir. I know I haven't had you on
in a while, but welcome.

Speaker 12 (01:20:28):
Great to be with your reason.

Speaker 3 (01:20:29):
So you wrote this article as soon as I hear it.
When I hear this, all you have to do is
put poverty in the title, and you lure me write in.

Speaker 2 (01:20:37):
Having grown up poor.

Speaker 3 (01:20:39):
I'm always interested in the way the media and government
deal with poverty in the country.

Speaker 2 (01:20:46):
It's you know, it's kind of the the place where
everyone goes.

Speaker 3 (01:20:49):
They talk about, you know, Bernie Sanders often talking about
well redistribution and you know, the oligarchs versus the regular
folks and that stuff. But your article talks about the
poverty in the state of Connecticut, and you found a connection.
I want to read this first line here. It says
poverty has three causes. First is bad luck, like diseases

(01:21:11):
and accidents that are not the fault of the sufferer.
Second is bad personal conduct. Third is public policy that
incentivizes the second bad conduct. And I thought, wow, this
is a tough article to read in the sense of,

(01:21:33):
you know, if some of these people who are bleeding
hearts for you to say that part of the reason
why these people are poor is because of their own misgivings,
If you will tell me a little bit about what
inspired the article.

Speaker 12 (01:21:46):
Oh Reisha, I've been noticing for many years because of
my time of a certain age that we've been prattling about,
you know, alleviating poverty in Connecticut for as long as
I've been conscious, and poverty is still there, and I
think in some ways it's worse. And I have been
trying to get those in authority to kind of audit

(01:22:10):
our poverty policies for signs of success or failure rather
than just you know, stumble on doing what we're doing
right now. But I do think, and you know, at
least two or three big respects, public policy in Connecticut
really nationally is manufacturing poverty more than it's alleviating it.

Speaker 3 (01:22:33):
That's interesting. Do you think in remember the War on poverty,
you know, Lyndon B. Johnson, do you think the government
is still following that template or just variations of the
failed policy? I mean, we spent fifty two trillion dollars
since the War on poverty, you know, probably even more
than that now. I think the last time I saw
that number was sometime in the mid two thousands. So

(01:22:55):
we spent trillions of dollars on it, only to have
more and more poverty. But do you think that there
were still using the same template.

Speaker 12 (01:23:02):
Well, I think it's been elaborated on and I think
it's been worsened in some respects. I've been asking the
people in authority in Connecticut for years, how does a
welfare system that incentivizes child bearing outside marriage, that incentivizes
raising children without fathers, that incentivizes taking fathers out of

(01:23:25):
the home with their really the structure they bring to
the home and the income they bring to the home.
How does this system removing fathers help the children growing
up and followless homes. I never get an answer about that.
I've asked our educators, how does social promotion in the

(01:23:45):
schools in Connecticut help the children when they enter the
adult world and have to fend for themselves being uneducated
and really having been told, as we have told the
underclass Connecticut for many years, that look, you don't have
to learn anything. We're going to advance you from grade

(01:24:05):
to grade where we're going to give you a high
school diploma, whether you've learned anything or not. The few
proficiency tests we give to high school students in Connecticut,
like the National Assessment of Educational Progress tests, they show that,
you know, most kids graduating from high school in Connecticut
have never mastered high school math in English, well, people

(01:24:30):
in high school, their parents. Of the kids in high school,
they all know that we're going to graduate you anyway.
If you don't have to learn, I wonder how is
that helping them.

Speaker 2 (01:24:42):
I don't know either.

Speaker 3 (01:24:43):
We're on the phone with Chris Powell of Chrispowellcolumn dot com.

Speaker 2 (01:24:47):
Chris, this is an interesting stat you put inside the article.

Speaker 3 (01:24:51):
It said about forty percent of births in the state
are women on Medicaid. That is, women who cannot support
themselves but choose to have children anyway. In the era
of government funded contraception and abortion. These pregnancies are not accidents.
Most could not happen without the promise of government medical

(01:25:13):
insurance and welfare stipends.

Speaker 2 (01:25:16):
So this is I mean back to the point you
were making earlier, but forty.

Speaker 3 (01:25:19):
Percent of the burns and state are women on medicag
the whole state.

Speaker 12 (01:25:25):
Yeah, and you know what, it is a larger percentage
in other states. I mean, to me, this is a
proclamation of pending the disaster. I mean, these are the
kids that are going to grow up and be in
poverty for generations. But you know, it's really it's an

(01:25:47):
old finding. I think maybe thirty years or so go.
A social scientist named David Blankenhorn wrote a book called
Fatherless America. He looked into all these followless person that
you know what these were not accidents, that these were uh,
you know, young women, teenagers who wanted to have children

(01:26:07):
because they were growing up in fatherless homes without a
lot of love and guidance and protection. They wanted somebody
to love them, and they figured, well, you know, at
least a baby will love me. That you know, these
these births are not accidents there, these are choices, and
I think the choices are facilitated by medicaid and and

(01:26:31):
all the benefits we we we give to people who
have children outside marriage. I think it was a Cada
institute a few years ago to the study and found
that the cash value of welfare benefits to single parents
actually can exceed the cash income of works working people

(01:26:54):
in many instances. Well, I think it was Jack Kemp.
We used to say that, look, if subsidize something, you're
going to get more of it, And we're subsidizing anti
social behavior with welfare policy. We should be discouraging people
from having children until they can support themselves, until they're

(01:27:14):
ready to do it. I think even President Obama tried
to make that point, though I don't think we did
much to.

Speaker 1 (01:27:22):
Do.

Speaker 3 (01:27:22):
You remember, it's so funny you say that about how
we're promoting the bad behavior of some of our inner
city you said, President Obama. President Obama gave a speech
on Father's Day. That's what Chris is talking about. And
the speech that he gave on Father's Day. And I
think this was before he was ever elected. He was

(01:27:42):
on the campaign trail, was talking about how we needed
more black fathers in the household. And during a segment
on The O'Reilly Factor, Reverend Jesse Jackson was there with
another gentleman. And before the segment, Jesse Jackson had been
caught on a hot Mike talking about Barack Obama berating him,

(01:28:04):
and he had said, and I'll you know, I'll blurt
out the expletive that he used. But he said, did
you hear Obama out there trying to tell n words
how to live?

Speaker 2 (01:28:14):
I want to cut his testicles off.

Speaker 3 (01:28:18):
And Bill O'Reilly had that and played it the next
day after he appeared on the show. So here we
had Barack Obama telling fathers that they needed to be
in there in their children's lives. And a man who
was a civil rights leader who marched with doctor Martin
Luther King Junior was excoriating him behind it.

Speaker 12 (01:28:38):
Well, we should be putting this question to our elected officials.
Is it is it good good or is it bad
that children should be born outside marriage?

Speaker 1 (01:28:48):
Uh?

Speaker 12 (01:28:49):
Is you know, should children have two parents or or not?
Is his fatherlessness a factor in the poverty we we
have in the country. Look, I think the forty percent
figure of medicaid burst in Connecticut. I mean, it should
terrify people.

Speaker 2 (01:29:06):
It should. I mean, it's freaked me out. I pulled
it from this article.

Speaker 3 (01:29:11):
It was the thing I wanted to get to most
because I would have never guessed it was that.

Speaker 2 (01:29:15):
But that's almost half of all births.

Speaker 12 (01:29:18):
Yeah, and you know what it's worth in other states? Now,
that figure that happening is one reason why we have
the so called baby bonds program here in Connecticut. Yeah,
the Democrats decided that, Okay, you know, forty percent of
the kids growing up in Connecticut or are almost certain
to be in getting into generational poverty when they got

(01:29:39):
out of high school and enter the working world. So
they will enter the working world without any capital. So
we have to put some capital aside for every child
born on Medicaid in the hope of you know, well,
we put three thousand dollars away for him every year,
and the hope of giving them, you know, twelve thousand
and fifteen thousand dollars in cash when they reach adulthood,

(01:30:01):
so they'll have some capital. Now, whether they'll you know,
do the right things with that or whether they're waste that,
I don't know. But you know, rather than try to
remediate this poverty with baby bonds, I think we should
address the cause of it. Yeah, and I think growing
up followlessness, in followlessness, that's that's a big cause of this,

(01:30:21):
you know, poverty. Look, if you bring the father back
to the home, at least you can double the income
of the home.

Speaker 3 (01:30:27):
Indeed, you're right, Hey, let me we're on the phone
with Chris Powell of chrispowellcolumn dot com.

Speaker 2 (01:30:32):
Chris, let me throw a curveball at you.

Speaker 3 (01:30:34):
I don't know if you saw this article, but I
saw it and I thought of you in our interview today,
it says it takes more than six figures to live
comfortably in Connecticut, New England states MIT or MIT fines.
So according to this study, that MIT did in conjunction
with a group of others. It says that a single

(01:30:54):
person in Connecticut would need to earn one hundred and
five thousand dollars per year, working adults with two children
two hundred and ninety thousand dollars a year to live
comfortably with that, and your article that's a that's a
heavy lift for a person to.

Speaker 12 (01:31:12):
Live in connection kind of surveys tell people, you know,
don't have any children at all, and you know that's
a national suicide as well. We've got to make we
got to bring the cost of living down, and you know,
there's a thousand issues involving there, but the first thing
we got to do is stop subsidizing people to impoverish themselves.

Speaker 3 (01:31:34):
Yeah, one hundred percent, right. And I think it's it's
overrun here in the state. And I don't know if
it's to just be a do gooder. Maybe it's just mismanagement,
it's just horrible politics, or I don't know. It sounds
like a myriad of things that we have to go
through in order to understand why they're doing it and
why they are It's a race to the bottom for

(01:31:56):
a lot of these politicians and a lot of their constituents.
Chris Powell, thanks you as always, sir. I will bring
you back. What's the new article that's coming up? What's
what's coming up next?

Speaker 11 (01:32:05):
Oh?

Speaker 12 (01:32:05):
Good grief. Well, I just wrote one today about Senator
Murphy and his statement that people think the Democrats are
as bad as the Republicans, and I agree with him,
but I think he's missing the point that one reason
they think the Democrats is as bad as Republicans is

(01:32:27):
Senator Murphy himself. Well then, well, it's.

Speaker 3 (01:32:32):
Funny because I brought that up yesterday I believe, no,
two days ago.

Speaker 2 (01:32:36):
Uh, the last month may have been last week. I
just realized it's tuesday.

Speaker 3 (01:32:39):
I think I brought it up last week where he
said the biggest problem that Democrats have his a credibility
issue on corruption.

Speaker 2 (01:32:47):
Yeah. I would totally want to read that. Did you
send it out yet or is it coming out tomorrow?

Speaker 10 (01:32:50):
No?

Speaker 12 (01:32:51):
No, well I don't go out till next week.

Speaker 3 (01:32:53):
Oh okay, all right, Well, I look forward to it,
and when I read it, if it's interesting enough, i'd
love to have you back.

Speaker 12 (01:33:00):
I'd love to.

Speaker 2 (01:33:03):
Not a problem.

Speaker 3 (01:33:04):
Chris Powell off Chrispowellcolumn dot Com. Don't forget to check
him out. It's free to do, and you need to look. Man,
put a little bit of a paywall on him. Man,
you know you should get paid for your work.

Speaker 12 (01:33:13):
You know, if I had any money, I pay people
to read it.

Speaker 2 (01:33:18):
Thank you, Chris, as always, Thank you, sir.

Speaker 12 (01:33:21):
You got it.

Speaker 2 (01:33:22):
Chris Powle's a good guy.

Speaker 3 (01:33:23):
Anytime I call him, Hey, whatever I ask, he shows up,
So I appreciate him for that. Uh So, Yeah, go
check out his article, much poverty in Connecticut arises from
bad state policy. Perhaps some of these people who need
to read it should read it in the legislature, and
maybe some Republicans as well. Pick up Chris Powell's I
find it every day at Connecticut or ct report dot com.

Speaker 2 (01:33:47):
So make sure you get to that as well. Help
the guy out, let him know he's being heard here
in Connecticut. Jesse Jackson is a civil rights leader as
much as I'm a porn star. Good one, Craig.

Speaker 3 (01:34:01):
Let's get another check of weather and traffic, and we've
got news coming up. John Silver's got news. Jason Calerina
with weather and Mark Christopher. Is it a BPS traffic center?
Is it still raining outside? Is the traffic still stuff
against that.

Speaker 2 (01:34:15):
Well, no, no, the rain stopped.

Speaker 1 (01:34:17):
Stay race on the radio is on w T I
see news.

Speaker 2 (01:34:24):
Let's do it, Yes, you do.

Speaker 1 (01:34:34):
This could very well be the stupidest person.

Speaker 4 (01:34:37):
On the face of the earth.

Speaker 3 (01:34:42):
Stupidest thing I read today, folks. Comes out of Meriden, Connecticut.
Headline Meriden High School senior detained by ice. According to
the superintendent. You heard it here at the top of
the hour. In the bottom of the hour news the
school is going to be holding a vigil for this

(01:35:04):
detained student. No one appears to know why the student
has been detained, but they know that the student and
their father have been detained by ice. Now, if you're
in Meriton, if you go to that school, if you
know somebody at that school, and you got a beefoot

(01:35:26):
what I'm about to say?

Speaker 2 (01:35:28):
Fine, but I'm not stupid. Let me explain why I'm not.

Speaker 3 (01:35:39):
Why in the world would we not know who the
individual is in this climate, What is the purpose of
withholding the name of the student and claiming they are
a minor.

Speaker 2 (01:35:56):
Just explain that to me, and please don't give me
the fluff.

Speaker 3 (01:36:01):
Oh, well, he's underage, graduating high school, graduating high school.
And if the objective is to draw empathy or concern
or even outraged for that matter, shouldn't we know who
they are? I mean, hell, they dragged out a twelve

(01:36:22):
year old photo with Trayvon Martin, even though at the
time he was shot he was over six feet tall
and weighed one hundred and eighty five pounds. I mean,
at least you let us know who the person is
that we're all supposed to be outraged about. But for
some sneaky suspicion, nobody knows the person's name. Well, I'm

(01:36:44):
assuming other than the folks over at Merit him, which
everybody is being tight lipped about. But that doesn't make
any sense. So, because I know I'm not stupid, let
me tell you why. I know you're withholding the name
because we'll do our research and what we may find

(01:37:05):
out may not be very favorable. Otherwise, tell us who
it is that we're supposed to be outraged about. You
can't just say some kid who we don't know was
detained by ice and say that Ice in some way
as well, because the Ice has got such a bad
reputation that we could just say Ice detain them bad Ice.

(01:37:26):
I don't know who's this person, who's his father? Why
were they detained? If you're not gonna tell us any
of that, where's the story? This seems very incomplete. I
would never publish this story if I was a news editor.

(01:37:46):
Why are they precisely for the reason I told you,
because ice is bad.

Speaker 2 (01:37:53):
It doesn't matter nameless and faceless individual.

Speaker 3 (01:37:56):
You'll be outraged. But I ain't fallen for that potato
banana and the tailpipe. We'll talk about it. If you
believe I'm out of sorts, let me know. Meridon eight
seint zero five two two WTIC.

Speaker 1 (01:38:07):
Self proclaimed love child of Rush.

Speaker 2 (01:38:10):

Speaker 1 (01:38:12):
You already sell the radio on Newstalk ten eighty WT.

Speaker 3 (01:38:15):
I see, I know, I got Kim and George on.
I know they're calling about the climate change conversation we
were having earlier. I promise you, guys, I will get
back to that. So stay on hold, don't go anywhere.
As I said in a last talk, break this story
out of Maloney High School. It just for it doesn't

(01:38:36):
sit well with me, and I'll tell you why. Look
this it's a story you exploit. The news media is
an agenda based news media outlet. It's agenda based. You
need a victim, and in this case, the high school
boy here, the graduate, it's got all of the markers.

(01:38:59):
He graduated, and he won't be there with his friends
because he was detained. Now, I'm not mocking what happened
to him. I'm mocking the reporting. That's the story. That's
how it's supposed to be sent to you, that's how
it's delivered. But I go when I look at the story,

(01:39:22):
and I was like, Okay, who's this kid?

Speaker 2 (01:39:23):
Why are they doing this to him? How long has
he been here?

Speaker 3 (01:39:26):
Is he a resident? Was he born here? Is his
father an illegal? And the young man was here, you know,
brought of his own accord?

Speaker 2 (01:39:32):
Was he born here? After the fact? Nothing? We respect
their privacy? Good? Why is it a story if you
can't say anything about him?

Speaker 3 (01:39:43):
If it's if it's something that we're not supposed to,
you know, delve into how can I respect the privacy
you brought to my doorstep. That's like you and your
you know, significant other getting into an argument in my
and then telling me, hey, respect our privacy.

Speaker 2 (01:40:05):
You're in my yard.

Speaker 3 (01:40:08):
I can't Can you leave go to yard domicile and
hash it out? But you put it in the news.
Everybody reports it, everyone puts out a press release and
then goes don't answer me any questions.

Speaker 2 (01:40:21):
No, no, you brought it up here. Now I want answers.
Who's the kid? Who's his father? Where are they from?
Why was he detained? Is he illegal?

Speaker 3 (01:40:34):
Is he a member of a gang? Is his father
a member of the gang? Did he do anything illegal
while he was going to school in Mada?

Speaker 2 (01:40:41):
I want to know it all. You can't just say
he's the taking because I know what you want. Hey
was detained? No bueno.

Speaker 3 (01:40:53):
As like zero five two two WT. I C Let's
go to Bob in Middletown. How are you, sir?

Speaker 10 (01:40:58):
Good? How are your reish? What had happened in La
was a little Negro nonsense on the half of the mayor.
Tell to please them. Thank you for thank you for that.
I think you read that for that. I just enjoy
that humor.

Speaker 3 (01:41:14):
Thank you, sir. I appreciate you. And oh damn, I'm sorry.
I didn't mean to do not apologize. Jeane and Bloomfield,
how are you.

Speaker 18 (01:41:23):
Well?

Speaker 4 (01:41:23):
I'm all right?

Speaker 18 (01:41:25):
How are you today?

Speaker 2 (01:41:26):
I'm great? What's going on with you?

Speaker 3 (01:41:29):
Oh?

Speaker 18 (01:41:29):
I just want to know why is it so important
that you need to know that young man's name. I mean,
it's the thing, you know, maybe they just don't want
any embarrassment for the child, and that's you know that,
you know, let's let's let's find out more. But that's
a terrible thing, especially if uh, he didn't do anything,

(01:41:52):
and then you know, that's just an awful thing.

Speaker 2 (01:41:56):
Wait a minute, jee hold on, Jean, what's what's all due?

Speaker 3 (01:42:01):
As this is being delivered to the news right by
the news, I should say this is being delivered by
the news. So I'm gonna put it in two different contexts,
and you tell me because I understand where you're coming from,
so I want to let you know that.

Speaker 2 (01:42:16):
First off, I know I know where you're coming from.

Speaker 3 (01:42:18):
But let me put let me explain to you where
you're coming from and why that would be sufficient. If
the if the neighbors or the kids at the school
were going door to door and saying hello, could you
help us try to support or get attorney fees for

(01:42:41):
our friend who was supposed to be graduating, who was
you know, detained by ice with his family, help us
help him. And they had come to your door and
asked you for assistance, and you had said absolutely, I
would love to.

Speaker 2 (01:42:56):
Here's two or three dollars, whatever the case is.

Speaker 3 (01:42:59):
Fine, that I have no problem with because that is
done privately by a group of kids who are trying
to help their friend.

Speaker 2 (01:43:07):
However, that's not what happened here.

Speaker 3 (01:43:11):
A press release went out, a call was made to
the news media that everybody hopped off on and told
the news media, Hey, we got a high school kid
that was detained by ice with his father and he's
about to graduate.

Speaker 2 (01:43:29):
And then the news media goes, well, is he illegal?
I can't discuss that. Was he in the country illegally?
We want to respect his privacy.

Speaker 3 (01:43:40):
Now, if I'm the news media, I go, well, I'm
not just gonna report that the kid got detained, and
I can't give anybody any details or context that would
be irresponsible as a news outlet.

Speaker 2 (01:43:51):
But guess what the news outlet did.

Speaker 3 (01:43:53):
They went, I'm gonna report it anyway, even though I
have no context to give the people, and it's everywhere
and when you go to the story and you go, hey,
let's find out about this kid and see if he
needs any help, and everything you.

Speaker 2 (01:44:05):
Turn up is we'd like to respect his privacy.

Speaker 3 (01:44:09):
We haven't disclosed two years or where he's from, or
how long his family's been here, or the reason why
they've been detained, but we want you to be aware
that he has been Something is afoot here. And I've
got to say, why tell this story and then not
tell the story?

Speaker 18 (01:44:29):
Well, here's what I'll say to you. Why don't you
get some of these news people on your show?

Speaker 3 (01:44:36):
I do, I do, Jean, I call them all the time,
and I say, come out on the show and talk
to me about why you guys.

Speaker 2 (01:44:43):
You know what they tell me. They can't.

Speaker 3 (01:44:46):
They tell me they can't and they won't, and you
know why they won't because they don't have any control.
The people who are reporting these stories are told what
they report. They don't even bother, they don't even have
the temerity to question the reporting that they're asked to do.
Because again, you're telling a story about a kid who's
been detained in a very volatile situation that is now

(01:45:09):
a nationwide.

Speaker 2 (01:45:10):
Story in Los Angeles.

Speaker 3 (01:45:11):
That's the reason why this story is even being reported
because of the ice detainers that are happening in Los Angeles.
And then you report this story to add on or
as I like to say, two pile on and then
when you go to look up the story, because as
soon as I heard it by John Villa at the
top of the hour, and I said, let me what's going.

Speaker 2 (01:45:28):
On with this kid? And then I look it up
and I go, no name, no, no, no father's name,
no nothing.

Speaker 3 (01:45:34):
Wait a minute, this is a weird story to report
when you got nothing to report.

Speaker 2 (01:45:38):
The only story is two people were detained, no details.

Speaker 18 (01:45:44):
Well as I see things in the news, you sure
do hear things just like what you're saying. But eventually
had comes out And as much as barking as you
doing about it today, it's gonna come out as sure.

Speaker 10 (01:45:56):
As you know.

Speaker 2 (01:45:57):
And gee, guess what we're gonna find out. Here's what
we're gonna find out.

Speaker 3 (01:46:00):
And I'll tell you nine times out of ten, you
know the story about kilmar Abrego Garcia.

Speaker 2 (01:46:06):
Right, Yeah, yeah, that's the reason.

Speaker 3 (01:46:10):
And I'm telling you that's the reason why we're not
getting a name now, because again, what.

Speaker 2 (01:46:15):
Do you What would I do?

Speaker 3 (01:46:17):
And what would you do if you found out the
person's name and they were you, if you're inquisitive, you
would say, hey, let me find out about this kid,
and see if I can help them. And then if
you did your research and found out and not so
nice things, then you would go, wow, why are they
Why are they promoting this kid? This kid doesn't seem
like a person on the up and up. So what
I'm saying is, in the absence of information, why is

(01:46:40):
this a story? And no one's gonna tell me, and
no one has an interest in telling me, just care
because we tell you to.

Speaker 18 (01:46:47):
And I'm saying, no, Well, you have every right. We'll
see what happened. And I hope that it has a
good ending, That's all I hope. I hope it has
a good ending that because I'll tell you everyone that
they do pick up is not necessarily all the things

(01:47:09):
that they say.

Speaker 8 (01:47:10):
But a lot they have.

Speaker 18 (01:47:11):
Yes, they have been so I certainly hope that.

Speaker 8 (01:47:14):
Oh.

Speaker 18 (01:47:15):
I just feel bad for any high school kid, any
kid in school. You got enough going against you. But
I hope it comes out with a good ending that.

Speaker 2 (01:47:23):
I hope he's a good kid.

Speaker 3 (01:47:25):
I hope he's a good kid that was wrongfully detained
and did nothing wrong. But if that isn't the case,
then I put anybody out there who kept that information
from us, I hold them responsible because it is their job.

Speaker 2 (01:47:38):
And again it's it's not their job to protect his integrity.

Speaker 3 (01:47:43):
Their job is to protect their integrity, and that's the
news media, and their integrity is to tell us the truth,
the who, what, when.

Speaker 2 (01:47:51):
And where.

Speaker 3 (01:47:51):
They're never supposed to tell us why until they know.
And in this story, they're giving me nothing.

Speaker 2 (01:47:59):
They're not even giving me the who. Thank you, je
you got it. I'm just saying they're not even like
in the who, what, when? Where?

Speaker 18 (01:48:08):
And why?

Speaker 2 (01:48:08):
What are we getting.

Speaker 12 (01:48:11):
What?

Speaker 19 (01:48:12):
That was a black grandma, I know it, but that
was all I got was what and what he got detained,
not who, not when, not even where?

Speaker 3 (01:48:27):
And they can't give us why because they have been
given us the who. I have never known a story
to just give the what. Can you imagine that? Can
you imagine that any reporting where somebody had said there
was a fire on Market Street yesterday? Now to international
news where on Market Street?

Speaker 2 (01:48:51):
What building? Is everybody okay?

Speaker 3 (01:48:55):
With anyone hurt? That's what I'm saying. I'm really you
think I'm kidding read this? Let me Meriden High School
senior detained by ice. According to superintendent, high school senior
in Meriden was detained at an immigration hearing in Harvard.
According to a statement Friday from the Meredian Public School

(01:49:16):
Superintendent Mark Bengini, if I'm pronouncing that correctly, the statement
says that the US Immigration and Customer Enforcement ICE agents
did not contact the district nor any Meridian school, a
public school, regarding the student.

Speaker 2 (01:49:33):
Quote.

Speaker 3 (01:49:34):
While I cannot share the details about specific students, I
can assure you that students who meet all of Meriden
Public School graduation requirements will be issued a diploma from
the Meridian Board of Education. The superintendent said, we respect all.

Speaker 2 (01:49:49):
Families privacy as they deal with this challenging situation.

Speaker 3 (01:49:54):
So here's the superintendent who is the one who put
out the press release and told them nothing.

Speaker 2 (01:50:00):
And it's a story. Hey, one of our kids was
detained by ICE. What happened? I can't reveal that. Will
you do a story on it? Absolutely, we'll get right
on it.

Speaker 3 (01:50:14):
We couldn't get a story covering the Solomon Schechter School
with any considerable interest at all. But a story with
no name, no context with it headlines everywhere. I just

(01:50:37):
somebody explained to me, it's everywhere. Does it make any sense?
Let's go to fred In Middletown before you got here.
Hello Fred.

Speaker 8 (01:50:47):
Hey, So that previous caller didn't understand it. She's listening
to underground radio, you know. Yeah, she thinks, oh well.

Speaker 4 (01:50:54):
In all the bark and you're doing about it now.

Speaker 8 (01:50:57):
No, you can scream your lungs out and it's is
you know, the NPR crowd, as Tommy used to point out,
they never listened to t I see, yeah, but I
wanted to harken back to climate change. There No less
than Joe from Simsbury about a year ago said climate
change is real, and I wrote a poem.

Speaker 12 (01:51:19):
I won't give you a whole poem.

Speaker 8 (01:51:20):
The first line, climate change is real, and so is
the flu. So what if anything, is anyone or someone
or everyone to do as regards climate change?

Speaker 20 (01:51:31):
Stop emitting CO two.

Speaker 12 (01:51:33):
Yeah.

Speaker 8 (01:51:33):
When they say, like, you know, reduce the carbon.

Speaker 2 (01:51:36):
They mean you and me, yeah, all of them.

Speaker 12 (01:51:41):
Yeah.

Speaker 8 (01:51:43):
And then Greta, Oh my god, somebody call that a
sealfie yacht. I guess they had like one truckload of
you know, rations on there.

Speaker 12 (01:51:54):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:51:54):
That was my favorite part is when she says I
was kidnapped. I'm like, read the room, idiot, I.

Speaker 8 (01:52:03):
Was kidnapped and poor, you know, and they were forced
to watch October seventh vidy. I know, I know, I wouldn't.
I wouldn't let one minute of that into my brain.
I haven't seen it, and I have no intention of
ever looking anyde of that stuff.

Speaker 2 (01:52:17):
You and I both, my friend, You and I both Yeah,
thank you, buddy.

Speaker 12 (01:52:21):
Hi.

Speaker 3 (01:52:22):
We'll get to Kim and Cromwell in a second to
talk about the also about that climate change thing.

Speaker 2 (01:52:27):
But again, look, I just want to know you kid's
going to be holding him vigil in his name?

Speaker 3 (01:52:35):
Will the signs have his name at the Meridan High
School when you guys go to graduation, we have signs
with his name?

Speaker 12 (01:52:41):
Will you?

Speaker 3 (01:52:41):
Will you have his picture up like David Puerta, the
head of the SEIU. Will you have a picture of
him so at least the rest of us can know
who he is, so we can understand his plight.

Speaker 2 (01:52:51):
I think that's fair. You want us to have empathy,
we should at least know who we have an empathy for.
Bob Larsen s got weather today.

Speaker 3 (01:53:00):
Jason, damn it, I still want to say, Jason Gotarina
Mark Christopher's a the BPS Traffics Center.

Speaker 1 (01:53:05):
The hour that backs out Punch Punch. It's Reese on
the radio on w t i C News Talk ten eighty.

Speaker 3 (01:53:14):
Get to the phone calls in a second and we'll
talk to you about what's going on in all the
news and what had happened was we talked about the

(01:53:42):
beginning of the show What's going on in Connecticut, that
there were so many different groups that were associated with
so many different things while they were protesting in Connecticut,
trying so hard to grab some attention from the la
riots that they would even invite people a part of
the Communist Party while screaming against fascism. They were out
protesting with members of the Communist Party. We will have

(01:54:07):
one of those communists on the show tomorrow by the
name of Eric Goodman. He was one of the gentlemen
featured in the Hartford Current yesterday and today you'll see
he's wearing a red shirt that says the Revolutionary Communists
of America with a hammer and sickle on it. All
this while Democrats are supporting Ukraine. I'll try to figure

(01:54:28):
it out. Maybe Eric can help me, but he's calling
tomorrow at four o'clock to talk about all of that.

Speaker 2 (01:54:35):
That's what you miss.

Speaker 3 (01:54:36):

Hey, Martin Raes on the radio is getting ready to
drop some knowledge.

Speaker 2 (01:55:56):
On w T I see news DROPH. Goodness, gracious, we're rackets.

Speaker 3 (01:56:03):
Rest on the radio. Um, we'll get to the phones
quick second. I just got a great uh text message.
I'm not gonna read who it's from, because I'm sure
you want to stay anonymous. Great points if you want
to remain anonymous. Why are you bothering us with the story.
It's such a good point. Why are you bothering us?
I don't and I think that I really do believe this.

(01:56:25):
I think the purpose of it by the superintendent was
to intentionally he's got.

Speaker 2 (01:56:32):
It's It was a mission.

Speaker 3 (01:56:35):
He probably doesn't like Trump, probably doesn't like ice, and
this was his way to be a rabble rouser. And
you know this was typical. Everybody jumped at, chomping at
the bit. Yeah, sure we can make us local. I

(01:56:56):
don't know whatever. Let's get back to the climate change conversation.
I know Kim is really interested in that.

Speaker 2 (01:57:02):
How are you dear?

Speaker 21 (01:57:04):
All right? Yeah, the gentleman's way of reasoning was way off.
First of all, we don't do science by consensus or
survey or polls and go buy what's the scientists field today?
It doesn't work like that. It sounds like he's going
off more or less literature from the last couple decades.

(01:57:26):
Is people need to understand the genuine processes of the
Earth and the skyes in the ocean. Okay, that's all
rooted in earth science. Geology doesn't stop, the atmosphere doesn't stop,
and neither does the ocean. It all marches on, but
to its own beat. There's no rule that describes like

(01:57:49):
it has to be fast or slow. And then to
go and figure, well, we've had all these events in
recent years, it must be due to mankind. You really
have to look into the other things that compose your weather.
Number One, you've got the sun, Okay, you have to
understand the properties of light, but the major things or

(01:58:15):
you have the jet stream, which is what moves the
massive air round and yes, the jet stream is funked up.

Speaker 3 (01:58:22):
You are one of the You're one of the only
ones out of all the people I've talked to about
climate change. You may be the second person who talked
about the jet stream because that's something I learned in
junior high school.

Speaker 21 (01:58:38):
Yes, exactly, and what people don't know. There are actually
three jet streams and you can follow it in the
digital age.

Speaker 4 (01:58:45):
You can follow it on any of the weather.

Speaker 21 (01:58:49):
Sites today. It has you know, software to monitor and
you could see how split a part it is. Then
we have the the Elminolinia cycle that indeed is an anomaly.
We could call that a climate change. It comes and
goes when it wants. We have no control over it.

(01:59:10):
There we the planet itself. The atmosphere is very differentiated,
and different air masses hang around different ratitudes and longitudes,
and every so often they waltz in and out of
their zones. These are all natural forces of physics. But
to go and chase one gas because the oil companies

(01:59:34):
a gas that is only zero points, it doesn't have
this power. It's only zero four point zero.

Speaker 3 (01:59:42):
But you know what, Kim, you make a good point
in sort of the the psychology of getting the masses
up in arms, as it will with with CO two. Right,
what you do is is you you invent the villain. Right,
You invent a villain by saying that this is the

(02:00:04):
ominous thing. And it's funny because usually on the left
it's always the same pattern, because what's their argument about
the AR fifteen that it's military style. It doesn't matter
that it fires like any other semi automatic weapon. It's
the fact that it looks scary. That that's why it
needs to be removed the same thing with oil. Oil

(02:00:26):
means it's and forgetting, you know, because most Americans don't
realize it. When you tell them, some of them are
always stunned. They go, do you understand that petrol and
oil in general, it is in everything we like everything around. Yeah,
it's like if you get rid of it, we lose everything.

(02:00:47):
They only attribute it to oil and gas. They forget
it fuels everything.

Speaker 2 (02:00:53):
And when you tell them.

Speaker 21 (02:00:57):
Has blasted the airwaves, I mean, if they were really
complaining about, say, uncomfortable weather, yeah, you would go after
water vapor. And let's say, I mean, I get these
questions on care all the time. Maybe we can evaporate
all the oceans and all your humidity would go away.
But look, because water vapor is what makes a summer

(02:01:19):
day miserable when you get which typical of the Northeast
and the Southeast, is the presence of water vapor there.
I mean, a hot, dry day is very pleasant. But
you know, if you're stuck in a particular region. Okay,
you're going to get that hot and humid stuff. It's
due to water vapor Your sweat cannot evaporate exactly, no room.

Speaker 3 (02:01:43):
Yeah, Kim, thank you as always. You are always fantastic.
I love you on all these things.

Speaker 21 (02:01:48):
Some kind of talk at some bar, you know what,
anybody who wants to learn.

Speaker 2 (02:01:53):
You're absolutely right.

Speaker 3 (02:01:54):
In fact, I'm going to make sure I'm going to
link this on my on my Facebook PAGEE.

Speaker 21 (02:01:59):
We'll get people who really want to take any question.

Speaker 4 (02:02:02):
You got it.

Speaker 2 (02:02:02):
There's this thing called climate the movie have you seen that?

Speaker 3 (02:02:07):
Okay, that's the one that talks about that talks about
the sun and how scientist that That was when I
first really started to recognize what was going on there.
But it's such a great movie. I got my wife
watching it too. I was just sitting around watching it
and she ended up watching it with me. And now
she's like, oh my goodness, I knew none of this stuff.
Such an education. Yeah, thank you, thank you, Kim, always,

(02:02:28):
thank you so much. Uh, let's go to Fulton and Waterbury.

Speaker 2 (02:02:32):
How are you doing, sir?

Speaker 4 (02:02:33):
What's what's up, buddy?

Speaker 11 (02:02:35):
I don't know if I believe in climate chase, but
I live Anneticut. So I hope it speeds up a
little bit because I.

Speaker 2 (02:02:40):
Like to like, yeah, it better speed up for my
wife because she's not ready for the cold.

Speaker 11 (02:02:46):
I say, you, guys a movie. Are you moving in
the perfect place? It's gonna beautiful like Florida here. The
other thing I have to say is the Meritan kid. Okay,
they're calling him Kevin, Kevin the immigrant.

Speaker 2 (02:02:59):
Okay, no, there not way way wait, wait, hold on,
where did you hear this?

Speaker 4 (02:03:04):
I looked it up. I looked it up.

Speaker 11 (02:03:05):
It was it was an hour ago, they say, Kevin,
and there to have a chair open after after graduation
for him? There was no nobody was a plot when
he was taken into custody.

Speaker 4 (02:03:15):
Right when did that happen? Like a couple of weeks ago?

Speaker 11 (02:03:17):
Thinking the custody nobody studied again the only man after
graduation film. I think it's a virtue.

Speaker 2 (02:03:23):
I totally do. So his name is Kevin, that's what
they're saying.

Speaker 4 (02:03:30):
You're going Kevin.

Speaker 11 (02:03:31):
I'm like, okay, Kevin the immigrant?

Speaker 4 (02:03:33):
That really?

Speaker 17 (02:03:33):
What is you?

Speaker 4 (02:03:34):
From Ireland?

Speaker 2 (02:03:41):
Thank you? So you know what I'm thinking. I'm starting
to think that there's a home alone reference in.

Speaker 1 (02:03:47):
All of this.

Speaker 11 (02:03:50):
I think this is a big virtue signal, like, oh,
we feel so bad, let's fly the missing man formation
like military does left.

Speaker 2 (02:03:58):
Oh goodness, grace.

Speaker 3 (02:04:00):
Yeah, that's definitely that's They're they're gonna pull out all
the stops on this one. I think we're being played.
But it's a good point now that I know his name. No,
I'm now I'm never gonna let go of his story.
I've never letting go now. Thank you, man, I appreciate you.

Speaker 2 (02:04:16):
Oh that's it. I'm addicted to this story. Now. Kevin,
what a name. It's the perfect name.

Speaker 3 (02:04:28):
Okay, all right, I'll tell you this story before before
I take the rest of the calls. And by the way,
if you want to call it about this Merritith kid,
please do eight six zero five two two wt I
see eight six zero.

Speaker 2 (02:04:39):
Five two two nine eight four to two now you
So it's this. This really happened, but it's kind of
messed up.

Speaker 3 (02:04:51):
So back in my twenties, I would always go out
and hang out with this girl, Britney Suld. We were
dating at the time. We lived together and stuff like that,
and every time we would go somewhere. Someone would see
me and go Kevin, and I go, nope, not me.
I'm Reese. And they go, man, you look just like

(02:05:11):
this guy Kevin. I'm like, nope, no, that's that's not me.
And the You're like, damn, you really do look like him,
like everything's size, weight, everything, body, even the way that
you sound. You sound exactly like the guy. No, I'm
sure it's not me. Nobody you didn't hang out in
such and such. No, definitely not me. Anyway, years and
years go by. Sure enough again, hey man, you look

(02:05:33):
exactly like this guy Kevin, different person entirely.

Speaker 2 (02:05:37):
Do you know him.

Speaker 3 (02:05:38):
I'm like, nope, that's not me. I said, you know what,
I get that a lot. Everybody always tells me I
look like this guy Kevin. He's like, obviously, he's my twin.
I would love to meet this guy, but no, I'm
not him. This went on for years, seven years, at
least twice, maybe three times a year.

Speaker 2 (02:05:54):
Kevin Kevin, Kevin Kevin.

Speaker 3 (02:05:56):
One day, we're hanging out at an after hour spot
in Queen's and I'm sitting there and this guy comes
over and he's had a few and he starts talking
to us and we don't want to have anything to
do with him, and we decide we're not going to
you know, we're not going to engage him and whatnot.
And so he goes, hey, man, what's your guy's name?
So I tell him Britney's name is she's Melanie, and

(02:06:19):
he goes, what's your name?

Speaker 2 (02:06:20):
And I go Kevin Kevin. So we leave and Brittany goes,
why did you give him that name? I said, I
always give that name.

Speaker 12 (02:06:32):
Yes.

Speaker 3 (02:06:32):
It turned out that all of those people who saw me,
they really didn't know me. But I told him my
name was Kevin. And when they saw me again, I
pretend that I wasn't that guy. No, my name is Reeese.
I'm not that guy you're looking for. Happened every time.
So for years I was this Kevin. It's a perfect name.
Everybody thinks that Derek Kevin. It's a perfect name. Let's

(02:06:56):
go to Mike in Plainville.

Speaker 2 (02:06:57):
How are you, sir?

Speaker 14 (02:07:00):
Was mistaken for someone else? Years ago? I would look
at the guy, why you remind me of so? And
so I said, my name is Thor.

Speaker 2 (02:07:12):
Tell you what do you got on this? What do
you got on this? Meriting kid? Do you think it?

Speaker 14 (02:07:17):
I don't know.

Speaker 2 (02:07:17):
Are we being duped here?

Speaker 14 (02:07:20):
I haven't been following it. I wanted to make some
comments about climate change. It's all natural, and I wanted
to make up my My biggest point is about the
mayor of l A talk about dumb and dummer. We
will not tolerate this type of act. Really, it's the
fourth day in and you're standing there being a podium
saying you're not going to tolerate it. What is her name? Art?

(02:07:44):
Did she come from?

Speaker 2 (02:07:45):
Karen Bass?

Speaker 14 (02:07:45):
How would she get into an office like that?

Speaker 2 (02:07:49):
How do these people get Karen Bass? Has you know?
What do you say?

Speaker 3 (02:07:53):
I got friends in low places? Karen's got friends in
low places. She is incompetent. She's always been incompetent. Everything
on a resume is nothing more than a resume builder.
She's never earned or accomplished anything. And that's who Karen
Bass is. And when you get them in again, I'm
so glad that she's the mayor of Los Angeles so
we can really realize how incompetent these people are.

Speaker 14 (02:08:17):
Second second comment, you really need to create a task
force in Harford for empty parking lots and empty property.
I would have I would be if I was the mayor.
I get the police chiefs and maybe the director of
public works people.

Speaker 2 (02:08:32):
Oh you're talking about empty parking lots that no one's using.

Speaker 14 (02:08:36):
Yeah, I mean he wants to They announced it. They
want to create a task for us to look into this.

Speaker 3 (02:08:42):
Oh you're talking about me, right, he was talking about
the I thought it was an alleyway thing that he
wanted to clean up, not parking. I yeah, I think
it was alleyways. I think he wants to make that
and I think he wants to turn them into homes.

Speaker 14 (02:08:59):
Somebody out of in larger picture of Chris Murphy walking
through New Milford talking to people talk about that's even
more more. Uh uh, I don't know, dumb and dummer.
You got three people standing there. I wouldn't even I
wouldn't take a second to stop, and even technoledge that
that's okay.

Speaker 3 (02:09:15):
He's doing a world tour. That's what that's that's what
Chris Murphy's doing.

Speaker 2 (02:09:18):
Thank you, Mike. Last, but not least, before we take
a break, let's go to Kennon tollin Hell. Are you
how you doing? Ken?

Speaker 20 (02:09:25):
We'll I have a mouthful of food I'm trying to eat,
but but it's it's hard to believe that people call
up with the ignorant things.

Speaker 7 (02:09:35):
They're saying.

Speaker 2 (02:09:36):
What's the he got?

Speaker 20 (02:09:38):
You've got Johnson saying he wants to tar and feather
the government governor of California.

Speaker 3 (02:09:46):
Right, who wants who said he? Who's Johnson? And who
said they wanted to tar and feather to Governor.

Speaker 10 (02:09:54):
Megan?

Speaker 20 (02:09:54):
Mike Mike Johnson, I'm all over the place. He wants
to tar and feather the governor of California.

Speaker 2 (02:10:03):
Okay?

Speaker 20 (02:10:04):
Is he trying to get violence going?

Speaker 1 (02:10:08):
Oh?

Speaker 3 (02:10:08):
You mean as opposed to the violence that's already happening there.
I think when you say tar and feather, we understand.

Speaker 1 (02:10:14):
What that means.

Speaker 20 (02:10:16):
Oh, what's that mean? What's that means?

Speaker 3 (02:10:19):
It's it's called it's called being figurative.

Speaker 2 (02:10:23):
Oh okay, yeah, I mean you don't really believe that.
You don't really believe that people do that, do you?
You don't really believe that people tar and feather individuals,
do you?

Speaker 8 (02:10:33):
Oh?

Speaker 20 (02:10:35):
You know, why would you say an ignorant thing like that?

Speaker 12 (02:10:38):
I want to say one more.

Speaker 10 (02:10:40):
Thing, of course you do process? What about I know
your history, I know your history. Okay, if you didn't
have due process years ago for what you were charged with. Yes,
and you were locked up in jail, wouldn't you be
a little pissed off?

Speaker 3 (02:10:54):
I think that I was a little pissed off. And
since you're bringing it up, let's go there. Let's talk
about you. Hold on, hold on, hold on, Let's talk
about due process. Are you under the impression that hold on?
Are you under the impression that that's what's happening with
these illegals? You under the impression that they're not receiving
due process? Are you suggesting that the reason why hold on?
Are you suggesting the reason why Ken? Stay for a second? Ken, Ken,

(02:11:18):
stay for stay for a second? You might learn something.
Do you believe that ICE agents know where these individuals
are because they haven't been processed, because they haven't had
due process. The reason why people know where they are,
hold on, The reason why people know where they are
is because.

Speaker 20 (02:11:35):
There is a you're kind of all mouth and you
don't listen to people.

Speaker 3 (02:11:40):
Actually, Ken, I did listen to you, and you tried
to be associative in your commentary, and I'm giving you
an opportunity to learn something from you trying to associate
the story. So, since we're associating it. No, No, since
we're associating it, I'm going to give you the background.
The background of this is is that the reason why
they knew where to find these individuals is because they

(02:12:01):
had to do process. They either had deportation orders or
they have been or they've committed crimes and they needed
to be needed to be removed from the country.

Speaker 2 (02:12:10):
Did you know Did you know that?

Speaker 12 (02:12:13):
Ken?

Speaker 2 (02:12:16):
Well, that's funny, Ken, because what I hear you saying
is is that the only thing we should believe is
what you believe.

Speaker 20 (02:12:24):
No, not what I believe.

Speaker 2 (02:12:26):
That's what I thought you said, Ken. Ken's Ken, That's
exactly what you said. And I understand. It's a pleasure,
isn't he. Let's see another check of the weather in traffic.

Speaker 3 (02:12:41):
Bob Larson's got weather and Mark Christmas at a BPS
traffic center.

Speaker 2 (02:12:44):
Hey, Mark, all right, we're back. It's Rees on the radio.

Speaker 3 (02:12:47):
I want to read a couple of the comments on
Facebook here because I see that they're kind of.

Speaker 2 (02:12:54):
Jumping up here a little bit.

Speaker 3 (02:12:56):
Let me see, Donald says the country must arrest the
rate of He's, of course, referencing my conversation with Chris
Powell of chrispowellcolumn dot Com.

Speaker 2 (02:13:07):
He says, greed is the enemy. No, it's not.

Speaker 3 (02:13:10):
Greed is not the enemy. There is no enemy in
that argument. But you can blame it on greed. It's
just that's like saying everybody with money is greedy. If
you have money, you should give it up.

Speaker 17 (02:13:20):
You know.

Speaker 3 (02:13:20):
I make this argument to these people who are so
morally superior to everyone else.

Speaker 2 (02:13:25):
My response to it is always you first.

Speaker 3 (02:13:29):
You know, if you want us to live by example,
you first give up all your money, all of your
earthly treasures. Give them up, you know, take a life
of poverty. Stop telling everybody else what to do with
their money. It's easy for you to spend my money,
it ain't yours. But if you really believe that greed
is the answer, stop being greedy. Give up what you have,

(02:13:52):
Get a smaller home, Live in a one bedroom apartment,
you know, live in a low income apartment.

Speaker 2 (02:14:00):
Are your earthly wares if you want? I mean, like
I said, you first.

Speaker 3 (02:14:05):
Today is also in there, It says occupied Los Angeles.
He actually said this, and I thought this was funny.
He says, gangs at home depot. Have you been to
home depot? Do you know who's at home depot. Do
you not think that somebody who's standing outside of a

(02:14:25):
home depot as a day laborer, a young man can't
possibly have gang ties. It's absolutely beyond the scope of reality.

Speaker 2 (02:14:38):
How do you know this?

Speaker 3 (02:14:39):
I mean, you seem to be this expert on gang
activity outside of.

Speaker 2 (02:14:45):
The home depot.

Speaker 3 (02:14:48):
Are you bringing these individuals home, making them a tortilla sandwich?
Are you having burritos with these individuals sitting down?

Speaker 2 (02:14:58):
Huh?

Speaker 12 (02:14:59):
Like?

Speaker 2 (02:14:59):
Tell me gangs at the oh, it's beyond the pail.
That's impossible.

Speaker 3 (02:15:07):
Seriously, let me tell you what your interest in Mexican
lifestyles are going to Taco bell ain't one of them.
Let's just put it that way. Okay, please.

Speaker 2 (02:15:24):
Spare me. I'm just saying, gangs at home depot? How
could that be?

Speaker 3 (02:15:34):
Gangs everywhere? Gangs everywhere? Let's get another checker, whether it's
traffic Bob Larson and Tim for Jason Catarina, Mark Christophers
in the VPS traffic center.

Speaker 2 (02:15:47):
What's up, everybody?

Speaker 20 (02:15:48):
You know who it is?

Speaker 3 (02:15:49):
You know it's rees on the radio, Frederick Douglas of
the twenty first century.

Speaker 1 (02:15:55):
It's w t i C news Talk, all.

Speaker 22 (02:15:58):
Right, we're gonna get into the lightning rod tightening, rong tightening,
rong tightening, Yes, the lightning round before we get up
Otti here and yeah, it does sound good.

Speaker 2 (02:16:11):
We'll do that. At the end of every show. We'll
get to your phone. Calls it eights zero five two
two w T I see. If you want to leave
a lasting legacy on the show.

Speaker 3 (02:16:21):
At the end of event, you can call up eights
and zero five two two w T I see eights
and zero five two two.

Speaker 2 (02:16:26):
Nine eight four two.

Speaker 3 (02:16:27):
You can opine about anything we covered throughout the four hours,
from everything from what took place in La to the
rallies that happened here in Connecticut.

Speaker 2 (02:16:38):
Also the Solomon Schechter School news, as well.

Speaker 3 (02:16:43):
As the conversation I have with Chris Powell from chrispowellcolumn
dot com Stupidest Thing I read today, which was about
the Meriden High School kid, the Maloney High School kid
named Kevin as it were, will fund out about that
as well.

Speaker 2 (02:16:58):
Let's go to Doc and the Ohington first, Hey.

Speaker 18 (02:17:01):
Doctor, Hey, how you doing.

Speaker 10 (02:17:04):
Last time they'll speak.

Speaker 20 (02:17:08):
I can kind of understand the guys think gangs at
home depot because it's not really a Congress or something
you would think of as going together, right, But he's wrong.

Speaker 10 (02:17:19):
The gi thing is, I didn't.

Speaker 4 (02:17:20):
Realize getting a deportation weren't from an immigration judge or
getting in the restaurant from a judge is not due.

Speaker 3 (02:17:29):
Process because they don't understand what that means. That's the
whole deal. They are under the impression right now. First
of all, how do you think they found the individuals
in the first place?

Speaker 2 (02:17:43):
Right, Like Ice didn't just run through.

Speaker 3 (02:17:45):
They're under the impression that Ice is just running through
towns and going you're a brown person, get.

Speaker 2 (02:17:51):
In a van. It's like not happening like that.

Speaker 3 (02:17:54):
They know where, they know where these individuals are. They
know that they have either overstayed their visa or they
have not come to court when they were supposed to
to find out if they were going to be deported.
They came into the country as many of them do,
and did and did not ever come back to court.
The objective was it was a catch and release program

(02:18:17):
that Biden allowed them to come in, and they were
never coming in to find out if they could stay
or if their asylum needs were going to be met.

Speaker 2 (02:18:23):
They just got it.

Speaker 3 (02:18:24):
Now they're being deported and people are saying there's no
due process.

Speaker 2 (02:18:28):
Yes, there was.

Speaker 20 (02:18:31):
Catch relase worse for fish fishing, not for people.

Speaker 2 (02:18:35):
Indeed, it does at least the fish know what they're
doing when they go back.

Speaker 3 (02:18:40):
Right, It's crazy, But you know that's I don't understand
why they don't get it and why they haven't gotten it.
But this whole argument, and you know everybody's got to
have their due process, Well, I would make the argument
the difference between me and them is is not I
didn't coming to the country illegally, right, that's my argument.

Speaker 2 (02:19:02):
And to equate them, no, go ahead, No, they don't
want to understand. Yeah, and and again.

Speaker 3 (02:19:11):
Trying to equate them. And this is the other thing
that I cannot understand. And this shows exactly how much
disdain they have for the American people. They would sooner
fight for the rights of an illegal than they would
fight for the rights for any American who.

Speaker 2 (02:19:29):
Didn't agree with them. Yeah, they see more value.

Speaker 3 (02:19:35):
And you saw that in the exchange he had with
the woman during his walk and a woman asking him
a legitimate question, and he immediately dismissed her as a
racist because again, the most important constituency to him his words,
not mine.

Speaker 2 (02:19:51):
Are those illegals.

Speaker 10 (02:19:55):
I don't get it.

Speaker 2 (02:19:58):
Exactly. You couldn't be more Thank you, Doc, and welcome back, sir.
It has been a min a minute. Let's get to,
of course, our.

Speaker 3 (02:20:06):
Last but not least caller, who always calls at the
end of the show with something shocking, if not a reverend.

Speaker 2 (02:20:13):
At the same time, White Mic.

Speaker 12 (02:20:14):
Is on the line.

Speaker 10 (02:20:15):
How are you, sir, oh man, I'm good.

Speaker 2 (02:20:17):
Well, Happy birthday, Happy birthday, by.

Speaker 10 (02:20:20):
The way, way, thank you very much. And I'll let
you know that at work is now totally in love
with me, and the ladies I work with are so
furious they could spit.

Speaker 3 (02:20:33):
For those of you who don't know, White Mike has
taken on a cat, a somewhat straight cat at his office.
She is a black cat that he is affectionately referred
to as Shaniqua. All we're all excited that White Mike
has a black woman in his life, and I think

(02:20:54):
it's appropriate.

Speaker 10 (02:20:56):
And now here's the controversial thing I'm going to say today,
All right.

Speaker 2 (02:21:01):
And protect the license.

Speaker 10 (02:21:02):
Go ahead, what do you got We should be stacking
bodies in Los Angeles right now.

Speaker 3 (02:21:09):
Oh you're saying that the police have held have had
way too much restraint with the amount of what do
you call it violence that is happening against them, with
the throwing of bricks and rocks and all that stuff.

Speaker 2 (02:21:20):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (02:21:21):
Look, people are saying that no one seems to be
paying attention to the fact that the LAPD of all
police departments has not fired a shot.

Speaker 10 (02:21:30):
They should be all assuming the room temperature challenge and
winning the wet t shirt contests. As far as I'm concerned,
it's done. I'm tired of these people. It's an insurrection.
These are communists, are outside communists are funding these people. Indeed,
we all saw the story about the truckload of sixty
dollars trauma mass that showed up brand new in boxes yesterday,

(02:21:52):
hundreds of them, thousands of them being driven by a
white guy in a car with out of state temporary
plates delivering these things. Well, who's paying for this?

Speaker 2 (02:22:02):
Did you hear that?

Speaker 3 (02:22:03):
Did you see the report from the Gateway Pundon that says, now,
some of these agitators, realizing that the Mexican flag is
giving off the wrong optics, are now handing out American flags.

Speaker 10 (02:22:18):
Yeah, so they can burn that. Yeah, time to send
these people a message if they don't want to either
assume room temperature or deported to Mexico. And by the way,
why don't we just send these people to random craft
pole South American countries. They don't have to go back
to Mexico leasen to Paraguay. Let's send them to Colombia.

(02:22:39):
Let's mess them up. Let's send them all to the
Chile and see how long it's takes them to.

Speaker 2 (02:22:43):
Walk back the tip of Chile.

Speaker 3 (02:22:47):
First of all, the fact that you manage Paraguay in
all of that, that's a country rarely for reference.

Speaker 2 (02:22:53):
I don't know. Look, I'll tell you this. I don't
want this to turn into Kent State. Okay, that never
looks good.

Speaker 3 (02:23:01):
I know what you're saying. The frustration is obvious. A
lot of Americans are just going this cannot stand. But look,
they've got any other way the optics unless and that's
probably what's going to happen, and I see it happening.
There is going to be what I refer to as
the perfect storm in essence, where the story can be

(02:23:22):
spun either way. A police officer, a National guardsman, or
maybe even a marine.

Speaker 2 (02:23:27):
If they do end up.

Speaker 3 (02:23:28):
There is in a situation where his life is in dange.
Oh you know what, I'll give you the perfect scenario
to give you the right angle.

Speaker 2 (02:23:37):
The kid. Why am I fi going to written house
the perfect storm where the.

Speaker 3 (02:23:42):
Video evidence creates that thing where some people can say
it was vigilanteism and some people can say it was
self defense. I'm feeling that that's what's going to happen
in this scenario where one of these people, these agitators
are gonna get in front of a National guardsman. Definitely,
I feel like a National guardsman where he is going

(02:24:03):
to have to protect himself and the only way he
can do that and innocent bystanders is to take a life.
And that's going to be the argument. And I still
I dread that day, but I think we're going to
get there. I think that's gonna happen.

Speaker 10 (02:24:19):
I don't want kids say I want MELI I want
hundreds of them in the streets, hundreds.

Speaker 7 (02:24:26):
I don't know.

Speaker 3 (02:24:26):
I don't because it's not listen, it never ends well
because remember the optics. This is like, look, man, how
do we turn into a country that sympathizes with hamas supporters?

Speaker 2 (02:24:38):
How do we get here? Why?

Speaker 3 (02:24:40):
Because after September eleventh. After five years after September eleventh,
we became a nation that, instead of getting rid of terrorists, asked.

Speaker 2 (02:24:49):
Why do they hate us? And started blaming themselves.

Speaker 10 (02:24:53):
Now, I think that particular situation is because people there
are some Hamas supporters there, some people who were tired
of being told only one side of the story and
being told only one side of the people is bad
over there, when legitimately they're all buttholes.

Speaker 2 (02:25:10):
Oh no, no, I'm not disputing that.

Speaker 3 (02:25:13):
But I'm saying, if you look at im and I'm
going with the most extreme here, and I get you,
that's it's way far more nuanced than I'm describing it.

Speaker 2 (02:25:20):
And you're right there. But my my debate here with
that is is, like you know, I always think of
that that sixty.

Speaker 3 (02:25:25):
Minutes interview where the Black Ops guy talked about colleague
Shak Muhammad, and he said that interview would he was
interviewing College Schek Mohammad, and College says to him, your
American media will turn against you, and sure enough.

Speaker 2 (02:25:39):
That's what happened.

Speaker 3 (02:25:40):
They started to empathize right when they found out kalege
Chek Muhammad was allegedly waterboarded one hundred and eighty three times.
What did the news media do with that? They ended
up victimizing kalege shak Muhammad. He became the victim.

Speaker 10 (02:25:53):
The news media doesn't really have the pool they used to.

Speaker 2 (02:25:57):
No, I understand that it's done.

Speaker 10 (02:26:00):
Uh and my gud buddy, I know I'm getting along here.
But whenever I watch Instagram and read comments, look at YouTube,
these people commenting are saying some wild stuff. Even for me.
There are so many people out there that love Adolph Hitler.

Speaker 2 (02:26:19):
Oh yeah, my god. Yeah, yeah, you know, it's it's not.

Speaker 10 (02:26:25):
A bunch of like, you know, crazy people. These are
regular people, both on the left.

Speaker 14 (02:26:29):
And the right.

Speaker 2 (02:26:30):
It's a wild wild West.

Speaker 18 (02:26:32):
I know.

Speaker 3 (02:26:32):
It's a wild wild West thing out there now, and
it's it's far more tenuous than it used to be.

Speaker 10 (02:26:41):
Once you remove any kind of restriction and your people
say what they want, they tend to say some wild
stuff that they do.

Speaker 3 (02:26:49):
You have a wonderful birthday withall you hear us and yes, sir,
have it going.

Speaker 2 (02:26:55):
Thank you.

Speaker 3 (02:26:56):
White Mike, ladies and gentlemen always a wild card. Yeah,
that's pretty much it. There's nothing else I can do
today after talking to him.

Speaker 2 (02:27:07):
Yeah, that the Internet.

Speaker 3 (02:27:09):
It's funny because I'm very I don't think I've ever
been more afraid of a thing than I am on
the Internet. And I'll go back to, was it Daniel Pearl?

Speaker 2 (02:27:24):
I think that was I think that was it.

Speaker 3 (02:27:27):
Daniel Pearl was one of the moments where I knew
that the Internet was going to be a dark place.
It was before i'd never really understood what they called
the dark web. But we were sitting in power one
oh four studios that can say their name now because
they're not the funked, but we were in those studios

(02:27:51):
and they had just released or we found out. Everyone
was emailing the video of Daniel Pearl and you know,
I don't need to say, you know how he died.

Speaker 12 (02:28:04):
Uh.

Speaker 2 (02:28:04):
And they said that there was a video of it
that they had released, that the terrorists had released.

Speaker 3 (02:28:11):
And I remember being in the studio and everybody rushing
out of the studio to go into the office to
go see the video. I refused, I'm like, I don't
want that in my head.

Speaker 2 (02:28:22):
I just I don't.

Speaker 3 (02:28:23):
I've never seen it. I refuse to still haven't seen
it to this day. Everyone told me that it was
important for me to view as a reporter. I said, no, nope,
that's not one of those things like you know, I don't.
It would be same logic would be in order for

(02:28:44):
me to report on a murder after witness it, like
by that same logic. And I was just like, no,
I'm just not And I felt in that moment, I'm
not gonna say any names like who was that was running?

Speaker 2 (02:28:58):
But there was.

Speaker 3 (02:29:00):
To Mike's point, there was an excitement to see that
on the internet as people were running into the office.
It was like, I gotta see it, and that even
the thought of it still gives me chills to this day.

Speaker 2 (02:29:19):
But there are.

Speaker 3 (02:29:21):
I think that's where we are. There is a wild
wild West out there that loves that kind of insanity,
that crazy, disgusting stuff. Anyway, what's today? Tuesday? Oh man,
we got a full week. This for the first time, Roland,
this is the first time the week has felt like

(02:29:43):
it slowed down.

Speaker 2 (02:29:45):
Why because you got an extra hour? Yeah, I think
that's it. I think that's it.

Speaker 3 (02:29:49):
I think it slowed down because we have the extra hour.
I can't believe it's Tuesday. It really feels like everything
is slow. I'm loving every bit of oh by the
way on tomorrow's show. I'll double check and I'll let
you know. Eric Goodman, who is of the Revolutionary Communists
of America. He was at the protest yesterday. He will

(02:30:12):
be on the show tomorrow. I think at four thirty.
I plan on him and being at four thirty today,
but I guess he'll just be he said. He texted
me and he said he will be on tomorrow. He
listened to the show. Now he knows what he's getting into,
so he shouldn't be afraid. He should know exactly what
the deal is. So we'll have him tomorrow. I don't
know if we have any other guests, but I think, well,

(02:30:33):
I think we'll keep him on for a little while
and talk to him about the Communist Party and find
out how communists and supporting Ukraine, how they do both.
He's got an interesting website. They're even fighting for brothers,
you know, my people on their website.

Speaker 2 (02:30:53):
I didn't even know. I didn't know. Apparently they're working
on black justice. The Commune, this party.

Speaker 3 (02:31:01):
I can't stop laughing at that. As soon as I
read it, I went black justice, what's this? Oh No,
it's never a good thing when you call it black
justice sounds like a comic book anyway.

Speaker 2 (02:31:17):
Whatever.

Speaker 3 (02:31:18):
As I always say, radio is free. So we thank
you for paying attention. Remember to keep j C in
your hearts and then in your mind. Show Patrick, you
love you, We miss you. Remember the panic is not
planning a plan your work and work.

Speaker 2 (02:31:27):
You're playing me.

Speaker 3 (02:31:28):
I'm reacing a radio. You have a good night, pleasant tomorrow.
Bob Larsen's got weather, Jason. Sorry, Mark Christophers in the
BPS traffic center, Jason kind of read to get back here.

Speaker 3 (02:32:21):
That's exactly what I get, Reese. This is a perfect
example of you giving white people much time. You need
to spew, Roger, I'll stop whining.

Speaker 2 (02:32:31):
Donald.

Speaker 3 (02:32:33):
Hey, you've noticed that the people who show no empathy
for the poor labeled themselves as a follower of I
don't know, so, I don't know what that's supposed to mean.

Speaker 2 (02:32:48):
So full of hope you'll learn or not. That's right. Oh,
it's been a pleasure, folks. All right.

Speaker 3 (02:32:57):
