Speaker 1 (00:00):
The views and opinions of the following show do not

Speaker 2 (00:07):
Thank you for listening to WSMN fifteen ninety AM and

previously recorded. Welcome to the Common Sense Conservatives, a political
discussion group about current events and other government related matters
every Wednesday evening from seven to eight pm, right here

(00:27):
on WSMN.

Speaker 1 (00:28):
Fifteen ninety AM.

Speaker 3 (00:30):
WSMN ninety five point three FM, and streaming live on
WUSMN dot Live. Making sense of the inverted reality we
are subject to every day. The common Sense Conservatives are
here to help bring me back to reality. Now, your hosts,
Chris Wyatt, Todd McKinley, and John Quopan.

Speaker 4 (00:47):
All right, hey, folks, welcome back to the Common Sense Conservatives.
Despite what you just heard, this is not free recorded
that was probably from last week. I hope everyboy can
hear me. All right, I'm Todd McKinlay here in Indianapolis
this week, not Northeast Tennessee. But I'll be back tomorrow.
Colonel Chris White, looks like you're back in your home
studio there, Sir.

Speaker 5 (01:05):
I am, and this is live radio, not previously recorded.
We have a little snaff foo there from last week. Yeah,
I am. I'm back from the Mountain States. Boy, it's
gorgeous out there, and I came back just in time.
A couple feet of snow fell where I was just
days ago.

Speaker 4 (01:23):
Well, the conspiracy theory is from what I'm hearing. I mean,
I don't know, leftling websites are saying that you were
out there doing something seating clouds or something. I'm not
sure I'm hearing the conspiracy theories.

Speaker 5 (01:33):
Sh you're not supposed to that. We'd be baby Babby
quiet with hunting webbits.

Speaker 4 (01:39):
There you go. I got John Grodner hold down the
studio there, Nashawa.

Speaker 5 (01:43):
John.

Speaker 4 (01:43):
It looking cool tonight. Those purple lights behind.

Speaker 1 (01:45):
You, No, I think those are just the regular lights
of just picking up the color of the paint or
something on the wall. But yeah, that that little thing
about that was from last week, and I guess they
didn't cycle out the the opening there. But unfortunately he
didn't have a live show last week, as listeners may know,
because Chris and I were both out of town and
I think Todd was having a hard time getting with it.

(02:08):
And so we just decided, you know what, if two
of us can't make it, why leave Todd Hankhams. We
just did a rerun, all right?

Speaker 4 (02:16):
Yeah, absolutely, and I appreciate that.

Speaker 5 (02:17):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (02:18):
Tonight, Like I said, I'm Indianapolis up here for the
American Legion fall meetings. A lot of a lot of
important stuff we've accomplished. And we do have a guest tonight.
Is he standing by by chance?

Speaker 5 (02:27):
John?

Speaker 1 (02:27):
He he's in here somewhere. You want to go ahead
and bring him in now?

Speaker 4 (02:30):
Yeah, So we're going to bring in Moni Fritz. He's
a Tennessee Hey, there is. He's on the road campaign.
Money is a state representative in Tennessee and he's out
on the campaign trail running for governor of the Great
State of Tennessee. Moni Fritz, Welcome to the Commisen's Conservative sir.

Speaker 5 (02:44):
Hey, I appreciate y'all having me.

Speaker 6 (02:45):
I went ahead and recorded mine just as a premonition
of how y'all going to introduce the show tonight. So
but I'll go back to Live.

Speaker 4 (02:53):
Oh right, he's back Live. Everybody love it. Money, tell
everybody a little bit about yourself at your background. He
is an army veteran, by the way, that were joining.
The Colonel and I were both Army veterans as well.
Obviously Money's army veteran state representative and running for governor.
Well educated man, Tell everybody a little bit about your background, sir.

Speaker 7 (03:10):
Yes, sir, thank you.

Speaker 6 (03:12):
My wife and I have forty two years, have two
sons and three grand kids. Spent my saville and working career,
most of it in the uranium processing, synthesis and manufacturing
line of work. Held several several different roles there. It
was the director of Operations at t WAT twelfth National

(03:34):
Security Complex for enrich uranium operations, director of ops for
nuclear fuels up in Irwin, makes all the to the
Navy for the subs and the carriers. While Trump forty
five was in I took an appointment to manage the
uranium both flavors two thirty five and two thirty eight,

(03:54):
plutonium and treatium material recovery and recycle. Set up the
Office of Stockpile Production and Integration. Along the way there
I did ten years with the Army and the National
Guard and up through ninety three and two thousand and
three I re enlisted. I decided we weren't gonna send
Tennessee AND's off to the big sand pit without me,

(04:18):
and so I re enlist. I was a Cavalry scout
staff sergeant.

Speaker 5 (04:23):
I had a convoy.

Speaker 6 (04:23):
Security and PSD team based in Dialla Province.

Speaker 5 (04:27):
We did most of the.

Speaker 6 (04:30):
Country between the Zegris Mountain and the Euphrates and Tigers Rivers,
mostly from Baghdad north.

Speaker 4 (04:38):
But absolutely very familiar operating in those areas for sure.
Many can you tell everybody why you're running for governor
of the great State of Tennessee, And I think everybody
wants to listen up for this one.

Speaker 6 (04:47):
Yes, for liberty and less government. That's exactly why I'm running.
I have prayed about this for months. I thought perhaps
it was just continued frustration with weak men in office.
Now there is still that frustration, but I do feel
called to run. That's not a it's not a prophecy
that I'm going to win, as a I'm going to

(05:08):
work hard enough to win.

Speaker 4 (05:10):
And we.

Speaker 6 (05:14):
Have seen government grow in Tennessee in the last six years.
Quest coming from the Governor's office have gone from thirty
seven point five b in the fifty nine point five
B and fifty nine percent increase in six years under
a Republican that's atrocious. That's not small government, that's not
limited taxation. So I fully intend to get a hold

(05:36):
of that budget. Some of the things that I want
to focus on upon in the budget are the universities
and colleges that have allowed wokeism and marketism atheism to
dominate the scene. And we're going to take a scalpel
or a hatchet to that. Under the Fridge administration, I'm
going to get those people's attention that we're going to
train up young people on how to think, not what

(05:59):
to think. We're not gonna indoctor Nate and Tama Day
and Tennessee schools and universities that see public funds, and
we're gonna give these young Tennesseeans and ones that come
here to study an opportunity to learn how to produce
and think and and and be great Americans.

Speaker 4 (06:14):
There you go, money. Let me turn over to Colonel Chris.
Why we love the great interview tactic. By the way,
the colonel, you're gonna love what he has to say
with the questions he's gonna ask you, and like you said,
don't softball anything. And I love the fact that you
did say that, and your your your chiefest staff said,
don't softball any questions to him. He'll take all the
hard questions. And Colonel Chris White, he'll give you some
good questions.

Speaker 5 (06:33):
Colonel Well, good questions aren't always hard questions. But boy, boy,
boy boy money, did he set me up for failure there?
But I do have one question for you. Uh, you
are running against kind of a big name out there,
Marshall Blackburn. That's I mean, people outside Tennessee have heard
that name before. Is that a big challenge for you?
Do you think the machine will be up against you?

(06:53):
If you've got a good chance here?

Speaker 7 (06:58):
Sure it is.

Speaker 6 (06:58):
But I more than just a career politician in Marsha Blackburn.
But we're running against a Nashville establishment that thinks that
we average people, we the people in Tennessee don't really matter.
They treat us a lot cattle in the field that
they want to milk them to our utters are dry,
and then they want to send us off to the
glue factory.

Speaker 5 (07:18):
And so it.

Speaker 6 (07:20):
Congressman Rose and Senator Blackburn are just DC politicians that
are running for this office. I think that I will
definitely outwork them both I haven't seen a Washington d C.
I don't know about you all, but I'm certain that
all outwork them. I think my message is different. I

(07:42):
know it is. When we have people that have overseen
a growth or at least part of the growth to
thirty seven trillion dollars in debt, we can trust them
to zero extent to be able to get control of
an out of budget growth in the state of Tennessee.
And the message of less government when we have over

(08:05):
reach in every category in the state of guns, atrocious
gun right behavior by governors, full establishment. Unfortunately, I think
most of those career politicians will all right into that,
and so it's different.

Speaker 5 (08:23):
I know this.

Speaker 6 (08:25):
I've been from the Mississippi River to Smoky Mountain many
many times now, and I can tell you that people
all across Tennessee have a thirst for liberty. They understand
that that Second Corinthians three seventeen, where the spirit of
the Lord is there's liberty that's a created and signed

(08:47):
into us attribute that we desire and can there's a
thirst for it in Tennessee. That distaste for government growing
and continuing to take our tax dollars and send it
out in corporate welfare, So short answer to your question.

Speaker 5 (09:03):
Sorry, sorry, I thought you finished areas a break up.

Speaker 6 (09:11):
We're determined to do it and and we we have
a plan to accomplish that.

Speaker 5 (09:17):
All right, Sorry to interrupt money there, but I thought
he'd stop because there was a break and it's a
pause itive. I think it's a signal. But all right,
So it is a big hill to climb. You said
that you mentioned faith here. I noticed that you're a
graduate of Liberty where you study. This is I've still
got you. Can you hear us? Can you hear us?
I'm thinking here us.

Speaker 1 (09:37):
Let me take him out and put him back in?

Speaker 5 (09:41):
All right, Yeah, I think it's uh. His towers are
not that great in part of the state there he
is back? Can here his money?

Speaker 6 (09:48):
I must still with your friends.

Speaker 5 (09:49):
Doesn't sound like it. We can hear you, but can
you can't inter us? I don't think you can hear
us u.

Speaker 1 (10:00):
And hopefully I'll take him out. Go ahead and send
him a message if you will.

Speaker 5 (10:05):
All right, I'll do that, all right. In the meantime,
So I was I was gonna ask the candid for
governor of Tennessee about his background, his educational background. He's
a graduate Liberty University, which is a Christian school, and
his degree in business and chemistry from there, which is
an interesting mix. I was going to be curious about that.
And then he also has a degree in me if
I'm not mistaken, from there, and I wanted to probe

(10:27):
into that a little bit, theological studies from Liberty. And
then he's a volunteer, got an NBA from the University
of Tennessee. A very interesting background there. And yeah, so
I thought that we'd get him that we'll try to
get him back up. Obviously his connection is not so great.
It's tough to do on the road, folks. You know,
the signals don't always carry through. That's it's one of
the vagaries of doing stuff over the internet these days.

(10:48):
It doesn't always work out. I mean, but I don't
know where Todd's staying out, man. I got to hook
up with Todd because it's a really really cool hotel
rooms there. It kind of looks like a hamped in,
but it looks at more Gucci than hamped in.

Speaker 4 (10:58):
It's just Sheraton. You see that in here now.

Speaker 5 (11:03):
So I said, I went out with these guys. They
put me in the best Western for eighty bucks a night,
still scratching the bad bugs off me.

Speaker 4 (11:10):
Here we go. Money's going to taking the takes of
video off. He's just going for voice. Deren mindy, we
can hear if you want to just keep talking there. Okay,
maybe not, maybe we can't have you got me now, man, Yeah,
we got you.

Speaker 5 (11:28):
We got you now. But boy got off the crown noise.
But we'll go with that. Somebody. This is Colonel White again.
So I noticed that you have a degree from Liberty
and business and chemistry at bachelor level, and then you
have a theological studies degree from Liberty as well, and
you talked about faith. I'm putting the faith big portion of.

Speaker 1 (11:45):
From you're I'm sorry, that's just not gonna work.

Speaker 5 (11:49):
Yeah, it's just too much. All right, Well if it
doesn't work, it doesn't work. We'll get him back. But
uh okay, so anyway, uh in the meantime, while we
try to short that out, folks, apologies for that. Again.
You know, these things happen. It is in a perfect world.
I think back to how we used to do things
before he had the Internet, and it was really challenging
back then. I mean, remember, people would always call in
on the telephone, and we still do that, but that's

(12:11):
not not the most common way people do things now.
But anyway, well, well Todd tries. I don't know if
I thought Tries was going to reach them. I don't know.
I we're gonna get any better signals. So maybe we
just we bag it. Maybe he calls back.

Speaker 4 (12:22):
Yeah, yeah, we'll have him back on if we can't
get him back on this hour. Yeah, having back on
and where he can be stationary at a better signal
for sure.

Speaker 5 (12:30):
Yeah. I've had to do that in the past when
I've called in, like I just sit in one spot
where the signal is good. Uh. But okay, so while
while we while we're moving on from that for the moment,
let's let's talk about what's going on in the world. Guys. Uh, Todd,
it's at your leads. And I don't want to steal
your thunder, But I mean, we got JB. Pritzker and
his I never refused a donut. JB. Pritzker, And we've
got we've got the National Guard deploying, We've got Trump.

(12:52):
They're lying about Trump. Yeah, I'll let you if you're
ready to go with it, run with no let's talk.

Speaker 4 (12:57):
About you know, the National Guard going to Chicago from Tech,
and I think there's some other National Guards that are
probably going there as well to get a handle on
that place. And we're hearing that the mayor and the
chief of Police is telling them not to back up
Ice or any federal agents who may be in distress
or maybe you know, under fire, whatever the case may be.
What are your thoughts on that? What are you hearing?

Speaker 5 (13:17):
Well, you know, the Insurrection Acts of eighteen o seven
exists for a reason, and the actions of the governor
of Illinois and the mayor of Chicago border on insurrection.
And quite frankly, you know, I think that they ought
to be wearing bracelets and be charge of federal crimes
for obstructing the federal government. While we are definitely not
thrilled with the federal government overreaching or overstepping its bounds,

(13:39):
certainly they have responsibility to protect the country against all enemies,
foreign and domestic. Both you and I know that Todd,
as does the candidate for governor of Tennessee. We all
took an oath to support and feend the Constitution against
all enemies, foreign and domestic, and the Democrats have loved
for decades to pretend that any use of the military
is a militaristic and it's the sign of a fascist state,
when in reality, the role of the military is in

(14:01):
fact to defend the homeland as well, not simply defend
our borders, and that gets lost on them. And you know,
these people, they had an insurrection in the summer of
twenty twenty, so called Summer of Love, when we actually
had a country declare itself independent on ied states in
the city of Seattle to the Capitol Hill Autonomous Zone,
and the Trump mininstration did nothing about it. They occupied,
attack the federal courthouse, occupied it, built the zone around it,

(14:24):
set up their own laws, declared their own independence, and
then they actually, you know, they segregate their society. Only
black people go here. It was insane. These people need
to be stopped. And Pritzker and Brandon Johnson are good
examples of people who are out of control, lawless. And
it's funny how they try to turn this around and
say that the federal governments are once out of control
and they're trying to turn Chicago into war zone, when

(14:44):
in fact, when in fact Chicago is a war zone.
Fourth July forty six, people murdered in the fourth July weekend.
That's insane. It is a war zone, I mean, Todd,
that's my thoughts on this. It's long overdue, absolutely, you know.
And you think about the number of people in Chicago
who have died just from straight gunfire. Kids sitting in

(15:05):
their rooms, you know, just trying.

Speaker 4 (15:06):
To have read a book or watch television, whatever, getting
killed in their own beds, in their own rooms because
of straight gunfire.

Speaker 5 (15:13):
You know. Yeah, that's the point here. I mean, there's
so many innocents are killed, and it's these aren't kids
doing drugs or people involved in prostitution or gangsterism or
things like that. These are innocent kids. And this is
happening in Chicago all the time. And this happens because
the lawlessness, and it only got worse after the Summer
of Love with this defund the police nonsense because of
the man who killed himself over fentanyl overdose. But we

(15:36):
see a police officer illegitately incarcerated over racist decision and
a court that should have had its judgment overturned and
putting Derek Chovan the other police officers in prison. Their
actions were not out of line. They were railroaded into prison.
They're not the only ones. Several white and Asian and
Hispanic police officer railroad in a prison or are fraudulent
charges in that summer by cowardly courts and cowardly juries

(15:58):
that had no business overseeing the judgments. It's shocking what's
happened to people in this country, law enforcement carrying out
the law when people have misbehaved. And I refer to
the police officer who pulled her service revolve or service
weapon instead of her taser. The wanted felon drug her
partner down the road in a car by refusing to stop.

(16:19):
And you know UCID deadly fourth is authorized to protect
life and limb, and that's what she was doing. And
she meant to pull her taser because she made a
mistake and she was honest about it. She spent three
years in prison as convicted felon and her life is over.
It's unbelievable what's happened. The man was a wanted felon,
He tried to flee from priests. He waited until the
police officer had reached into the car on the passenger
side and then drove away and in danger that officer's
life she saved the officer's life and spent three years

(16:41):
in prisons, kicked Devell, her life completely destroyed. Unbelievable, But we.

Speaker 4 (16:44):
Have money back. He's on the phone now, so this
will be a hopefully a bit better for us. MONI,
go ahead, sir John you said he had him on.

Speaker 5 (16:54):
Oh yeah, that's fantastic, Monnie. Colonel, go with the questioning there, okay,
So MONI, welcome back the vagaries of technology that always
help us. I was noticing that your educational background. You
have a BS in business and chemistry for Liberty University
at Christian School, and then you got your master's in
theological studies from Liberty as well, and then we'll talk later.

(17:14):
But you also have an MBA from the University of Tennessee,
but Liberty University. I'm guessing that faith plays a large
role in your service to the nation, both in uniform
and in the state legislature. And now you're a desire
to become the governor of Tennessee. Faith must play a
big role.

Speaker 7 (17:29):
It does, yes, sir, and I think it played a
big role in our founders and wives and their decision
to resist a tyranny of Great Britain. I think again,
I don't know if it comes through where we're talking
earlier Second Corinthians three seventeen, where the spirit of the
Lord is there's liberty. I think there's a natural desire

(17:50):
in us to repel tyranny. And I think some men
cave to the tyranny, and some men accept it. Some
of us are gracious for a time, and I guess,
you know, don't want to be too obstinate about things,
but I think we're certainly at the time in America
and Tennessee. And if the word is obstinate, then let's
use that because it's I'm I think most tennes Sins

(18:13):
have really had it up to the noose holes with
continuing to pay taxes and see it go out in
corporate welfare and a government in the state of Tennessee
that doesn't behave like it works for us. I think
I was reading in Niemi chapter four and five, and
you know this, This is where Nemi is rebuilding the wall,
and every man kept a trial in one hand and

(18:34):
worked on the wall and a sword in the other.
And I think God expects us to care for ourselves
and protect ourselves and defend ourselves and recognize that there
is evil in the world, and so these misguided approaches
that folks in government have that they're going to restrict
our right to keep bear arms, infringe upon that right,

(18:56):
suggests that we're non essential in times of emergency and
tell us we can earn a live and there's no
room for that, and there's no constitutional authority for those
people to behave that way. So we're going to file
back against that, and we're going to assertively and decisively

(19:16):
restore liberty and less government.

Speaker 5 (19:18):
Back to Tennessee, Well, I'm familiar with the volunteer State.
My brother lives down that way, but I'm not a
subject matter expert on the eternal domestic issues of state,
but a lot of the mirror of the exact same
issues talk about nationally. Not One of reason why I'm
a fan of volteer State is, of course Peyton Manny
was a volunteer, so I can't help but be a
fan of Tennessee for that reason. But I have to

(19:39):
say that I noticed that you were involved in I
guess what was an extraordinary session. You are on an
immigration committee. Immigration legal immigration specifically is a major issue
here in the United States. Is that a significant problem
for the residents for the citizens of volunteer state, or
was this special session related to something different?

Speaker 7 (19:57):
It is it is continued to be a pro problem.
We did while Biden was still illegitimately in the lighthouse,
we did an Article three, section five Tennessee Constitution peace
of legislation that would authorize Governor Lee to send a
brigade size force of guardsmen to assist Texas gentlemen. Recall,

(20:19):
at that time Texas was trying at making some attempt
anyways to slow down the ingress of illegals into the
United States, and the federal government would go down and
tear down the razor wire, the constantina or whatever that
they had strung up, and it had gotten my attention
to the point we went down to McAllen, Texas and

(20:39):
visited on the border and saw that it was actually
worse than what even Fox News or OM was reporting,
and so decided to do that. Unfortunately, Governor Ly didn't
seize that opportunity you could have sent. They limited brigade
size force to two thousand for determining a cost. That's
really the Article three, section five the Tennessee Constitution is

(21:01):
all about the people's will in sending their militia or
guard off into potentially into harms way to put down
the rebellions and invasions, uh, into payful. So we did that. Uh,
we tried to. We tried legislation just this year twenty
five that would have stopped paying to educate foreigners, and

(21:25):
it failed in the Senate. There's there's just a really
disappointing sentiment amongst many of the Republicans that I can't
blame the Democrats. It's it's weak Republicans that are allowing
this to happen. And it's it's it's fiscally killing us.
We're spending you know, by some estimates, hundreds of millions

(21:45):
of dollars in the education of children that are non citizens,
all created in the image of God, but they were
all brought here illegally. And so we we offered a
piece of legislation that would simply require documentation that you're
here legally before the before the child and roles in school,
and just can't provide that pay the pay the tuition
amount up front. It's about ten thousand dollars a year.

(22:06):
And I thought that was fair, to use the modern
word equitable.

Speaker 5 (22:11):
Uh.

Speaker 7 (22:12):
But my senic some MYTHENTIC colleagues and that they killed
that bill. It's it's it's disappointing again that that Tennessee
citizens are doing without essentral government services, things that fall
within the bounds of the constitution, and we're spending money
on people who are non citizens and that must end.

(22:33):
That must stop. I'm determined to stop that. I'm determined
to push for stiffer penalties on those who do some
soft form of human trafficking. Because those employers that bring
in illegal or illegals know England pay them under the
table that they're they're actually taking advantage of another human

(22:55):
being and doing something that is illegal, and we need
to really go at ressively after those companies and employers
that do that. It's not okay, it's not okay to
establish a fertile ground for illegals to reside here. We
we I UH did a piece of legislation a couple
of years ago, and we're successful get it passed that

(23:17):
enhance the penalty for UH criminal illegals who commit violent
crimes or any crime with the deadly weapon we use
for deadly weapon to life in prison and parole. I
don't have any desire to incarcerate these human beings in
Tennessee penitentiaries and pay for that. I just don't want
them to come here. And I think that we have

(23:38):
laws and consequences to law, to breaking the law, uh,
to discourage crime, and so that's what we're trying to do.
We've you know, we've uh unfortunately many and leadership roles
UH just have become soft. I really don't mean that
to just be critical. I mean that to awaken these men.

(24:00):
God did not create us to be weak and timid souls.
He created us to be kind and compassion, but he
also created us to be firm and to be law
and order, and we're struggling with that summit Tennessee. So
I'm pushing hard back on that.

Speaker 5 (24:18):
Well, you touch on a cup point that it's very valid,
and I'll come back to your previous point and loop
this into it and get your response. Specifically, you talk
essentially about a deterrible, incredible deterrence to convince people who
have invaded our nation and violate our sovereignty that they
shouldn't be coming here or they should enter legally. And
you talk about that. The legislation got passed. But let's
get back to the education thing. I think it's interesting

(24:39):
because people in the political left want to play this
namby pamby softy thing that these criminal alien vaders offspring
should go to our schools and we have to pay
taxes so that support them. They strain our schools, fill
our schools. They bring here to here and don't have
childhood immunizations and suddenly have measles, mumps, rebella epidemics in
little pockets and clusters around the country where they many

(25:00):
of them. But here's the thing that gets lost in
these people. We have all over this country, states like
Maryland and others that allow criminal alien vaders to attend
university who are illegally in the country, as in state residents.
When American citizens across the border in Pennsylvania have to
pay out of state tuition to go to school in
Maryland or to go to school in a state like
Tennessee when they're out of state. And not just that,

(25:22):
but we do it to our own military. Now they
don't pay themselves, but the Department offens I'm sorry, the
Department of War. Now, the Department of War pays local
school districts millions, tens, the millions, hundreds of millions of
dollars for the dependent children of service members who attend
local schools, particularly high schools, so that they're not cheated
out of funding. That's not something that these criminal alienvadors

(25:45):
have to do. And I think that's something you're getting
at here. It sounds to me like you are interested
in putting credible deterrence to deser people who want to
willingly violate the law, specifically criminal alienvadors.

Speaker 7 (25:57):
Absolutely, and and hopefully to encourage my colleagues they can
stand up. So we have this whole thing with President
Trump has had decided to send the National Guard into Memphis, Tennessee.
I think that's unfortunate. One thing about Trump's can depend
on him to be okay with acting, you know, okay
with doing something, and I think that's favorable. But the

(26:21):
unfavorable part of that is we had just demonstrated two
years ago how to enact this article three, section five
through a bill, and we could have for years now
have sent Tennessee guardsmen into Memphis to help put down
what many there identify as a criminal rebellion. And we waited,

(26:46):
our governor waited. We've had and it's not been just
Bill Lee it's it's been Haslam, and perhaps E've been
the one before him, but we have lost law and
order in some of our blue cities, you know, because
of these Marxists mayors and city councils and hug a
thug mentality that they have allowed the honest person, the

(27:10):
person just wants to go to work or go to
the grocery store or the market. They're afraid to get outside,
and then weak Republicans like our current governor do things
to discourage arming oneself.

Speaker 5 (27:24):
We just there was.

Speaker 7 (27:25):
Just a huge court victory in Tennessee in the Western
District Chancery Court in a suit that was Hughes v.
Lee and the defendants Lee in the case where Governor Lee,
the Attorney General and Jeff Longs, the Commissioner of Safety,
and there's one hundred and fifty four year old Jim

(27:46):
Crow language in the law intent to go armed, and
it was put in the code I'm told, I'm told
through history to discourage black men from arming themselves. Well,
they want to go on to that. This court ruled
that that language is unconstitutional. While we should have been
celebrating a removal of Jim crowall from code books in Tennessee.

(28:10):
The governor decided he's going to appeal that and extend
Jim Crow conditions in the state of Tennessee, not just
the black folks, but I guess folks that aren't like him,
that don't walk about with armed guards and live in
gated communities and all those kinds of things. And so
when we decide that we're going to send our guardsmen

(28:33):
to Memphis, Tennessee, the first thing that we need to
do is stop trying to enact prohibitions against the lawful
Tennessee Tennessee citizen arming and defending themselves, because the predatorial
agents in this world are looking for an opportunity to

(28:55):
behave like a predator, and unarmed crowds and silly gunfree
zones or the place is that they do their dirty deeds.
So all that to get back to your question, certainly
some of that crime comes from the illegals, but some
of it comes from these criminal factions of citizens. Back

(29:15):
to the human trafficking part, that we traffic humans across
the real grand I saw the paths where they come across.
I saw the fences that McAllen, Texas had to put
up in the water to catch the bodies that were
drowning that were coming into the waters in the city's
work intake. And then we have the same thing in Memphis, Tennessee,

(29:39):
where we had twenty five year olds who recruit and
traffic fifteen year olds to do criminal deeds for them
because the fifteen year olds will be treated differently in court.
And I really think we're going to have to get
tough on that if we're going to sustain any type
law and order in some of these places where we've
allowed the criminal elements to really overtake the suits.

Speaker 5 (30:02):
Well, I would imagine before you answer this, let me
give a couple of stats here that are going to
alarm people. It sounds like you're probably familiar with it
as a candid for governor, But I would imagine that
if you became governor and there was an issue like
Memphis where the federal government wanted to intervene to help
the state, you probably cooperate with the president. But before
you answer that, let me just mention you know, the
United States murder rate is five per one hundred thousand inhabitants.

(30:26):
That's relatively low for the reputation United States seems to
have in the press and around the world. By contrast,
the rate in Nashville is sixteen point three. It's triple
the murder rate of the United States. But that's not
really where we're going with this. The rate in Memphis
is forty point six per one hundred thousand and eight
times the national rate. And by the way, for my

(30:48):
South African viewers who are listening to this program tonight,
that is almost as bad as South Africa, which has
forty five murders per one hundred thousand. That is shocking
to hear Monty that almost already one people have one
hundred thousand that are murdered in the city of Memphis.
I mean, that's the home of el Was Presley Gracelin.
I don't think of it as a murder place, but

(31:09):
in fact crime is quite bad there. So would you
be inclined to work with the federal government to help
resolve those issues in places like Memphis particular, but also
in Nashville.

Speaker 7 (31:19):
Absolutely, And there's certainly a place, especially for the deportation
to the federal agents to come in and the investigative
arm of the FBI or whomever to come in to
help the TBI. But I think my greater frustration is
that we've had full authority in the state of Tennessee
this article three, section five for decades to go restore
law and order. Because I think if if we have

(31:42):
a criminal rebellion, I think that's the first question you
have to ask if there is indeed a criminal rebellion
in Memphis, Tennessee or Nashville, Tennessee. And Nashville's not a
great deal better. But if that answer is yes, then
you have to ask the next question. And the next
question becomes is that do we, yeah, have we lost

(32:04):
law and order in the city. And if the answer
is yes, and I think it's incumbent upon the governor
to help restore law and order, and he has full
authority to do so. And and you know, it's easy.
It sounds cheap for me to say this, I would
have acted before now. That's that's a fair armchair quarterback.

Speaker 5 (32:25):
Right, not exactly but but but but your point is valid.

Speaker 7 (32:28):
You would have acted by now to stand timidly behind
President Trump as he enacts this and didn't act as
this That there's something you plan to do for a
long time is a is a great hypocrisy and right, yeah.
The other the other rumor is this, and it's rumor,
uh it's strong room, or it's reported uh that that

(32:50):
we're sending these guardsmen to Memphis unarmed. Again, if you
answer those first two questions, if there's a criminal rebellion,
and if you've lost law and order and it's incumbent
responsibility on the governor to restore order, and he's going
to use the national ard to do that, then why
would you send him an armed And absolutely there is

(33:14):
a there is the national establishment. It's not just Governor Lea,
but there's a whole group of and I always say
men because I think the women have much more backbone
in many places in America than some of the men do. This,
this whole hate for masculinity has sunk into some of

(33:35):
these soaks and they've become complete quins. Yeah, and so
you know, there's a time for man to stand up,
and it's time for men to stand up in America.
And that doesn't mean we have to be ugly and
hateful or cruel or any of those kinds of things,
but we do have to behave like men. And if
you hold an office such as the governor of the
State of Tennessee, you have to be willing to stand

(33:56):
up and take on those heart issues or don't get
into that business.

Speaker 4 (34:02):
I agree with you absolutely.

Speaker 5 (34:05):
So there's another question I want to explore here. Manty
with you, and you put a bill on the floor,
sponsored a bill for voter identification that was a major
issue in this country and it is for many of
us that are concerned about the integrity of our elections.
Can you tell us a littleit about what that bill
is about and what your position is on voter id
for elections.

Speaker 7 (34:22):
Absolutely, this was something that we cared with. I do
most of the bills that and resolutions we've done start
with my pen. This was a case that I actually
picked one up that Senator Podie who was caring for
Kathy Rms. Kaffy Harms is one of the leaders in
election security in the state of Tennessee, and it's simply

(34:44):
trying to clean up the language in voter identifications to
look forward. You know, we often taut in Tennessee and
I won't argue that we're not better than others in
the way we do our elections. However, if that brings
a sense of complacency, then it's going to really cost

(35:07):
us somewhere in the future. There has to be a
continuous improvement approach in elections, in all things in government,
but in elections especially because the cyber criminal is continually
attempting to hack. So I think there's several things other
than voter idea that we need to do. My friend

(35:27):
Jody Barrett offered another voter identification bill this past year,
and it was simply for those legally here in the
United States to have denoted on their driver's license, because
we have legal foreigners in the state of Tennessee and
in the United States and they need driver's license and
all those kinds of things. But it was just to

(35:49):
put a big bad denotation that you know, non citizen
or something to that extent, and the paid governor's lobby,
it's the Department of Safety, really pushed back on that
in the less than genuine fashion and had a contract

(36:10):
open as I understand it, and could have made the
changes that Represented Barrett was asking for, but they pushed
back and killed the bill. Which is another huge problem
in Tennessee. We have state employees that lobby against the
rights of Tennessee's and lobby to influence the direction of legislation.

(36:30):
Is that moves to the process. Our Constitution is absolutely clear.
The governor gets one shot at whether he approves or
disapproves of the piece of legislation. That's when it hits
his death. We do between sixty and sixty five bills
per year that our administration bills that the governor's people
right and hand off to someone. Fritz is not going

(36:53):
to do that. Our Tennessee Constitution is clear Article two,
Section one and two that there are three departments in
Tennessee government and neither of the three of them do
the roles of the others. And we've allowed that to
get out of control and it's become I think that
influences the budget growth. I think it influences the government overreach.

(37:17):
I think it influences that what is an attitude in
Nashville that they are the dispenser of our rights. Our
Tennessee Republican Party guiding Principles, which is like our platform,
if you will, for the State of Tennessee, is very
solid and it says that her rights are from God

(37:38):
and they're inviolent, and we're not behaving like that. When
the governor or the Attorney General or the Speaker of
the House think that they can squash something, either in
some dirty moves behind closed doors, or that they can
enact in executive order that tells people they can't earn

(37:59):
a living in the state of ten Not state employees,
not someone under the purview of the governor, but all citizens.
We far exceeded the bounds of the authorities given us
by the Constitution. And I'm going to tell you the
first thought I had when I realized we had this
huge versus Lee Court victory that I was telling you

(38:22):
all about, and when it's a celebration thing for me
because it's writing something that was wrong, and it's correcting
Jim Crow law, and it's restoring to the citizen their
ability to keep in bear arms without being a criminal. First,
because that's Tennessee law is currently set up that if

(38:43):
I am armed in the State of Tennessee, I am
guilty of committing a crime and I must have a
defense that I can prove otherwise, like I am open carrying,
or that I have a permit to carry concealed. And
that's just that's counter to innocent until proven guilty, in
a concept that I think most Americans will agree that

(39:04):
we hold it. Indeed, So when when when we decided
that we're going to appeal that. The governor's office was
going to appeal this. Uh My first though was we
should impeach him because it's a gross violation of the
Constitution and a betrayal of the oaths. The unfortunate part

(39:26):
of that is there's not enough people to take that
hard view to make that happen, and that saddens me
so well, that's.

Speaker 5 (39:35):
The problem throughout the country, Monty, where people trying to
impost things like red flag laws which violate the Constitution
under natural rights, which you're talking about, you know, you know,
Todd said, I was going to ask the hard questions.
Did say good questions too, But I'm going to tell
you that listen, money, Wikipedia is not your friend. I
don't know if you saw they they got a Wikipedia
page on you. It's not your friend. They they focused

(39:58):
on just a couple of bills, and their focus is
on your position on a bill that was introduced about
cousins marrying, and then uh, there's another thing about uh,
they're just they're just focusing on that. And then there's
a bill about school shooting and wanting armed teachers. And
I don't have a problem with that one. You know,
they don't really cover much of your your record at

(40:19):
the legislative level. They just focus on a few things
that are obviously leftist positions that they want people to
turn against you. I don't know if you're aware of that,
if you saw that, and I don't know if you
want to talk about those topics or not.

Speaker 7 (40:30):
So, so we're working on correct in the the the
Wikipedia and adding to it and and that that is uh,
the cousins bill.

Speaker 5 (40:39):
Let me give you the.

Speaker 7 (40:40):
Story on that. So we had four or five Democrats
decide that they're going to sponsor a bill that first
cousins can't marry in the state of Tennessee. First, I
didn't realize that we have mass marriages of first cousins
occurring in the state of Tennessee. That great tongue in cheek, right.
And secondly, if we do, those folks need to get

(41:02):
out more. When the reporters first asked me about my
vote on But what really those Democrats were doing were
they were carrying a bill to insult rural Tennessees. It
was a way to slap in the face those who
have conservative values, not that they're marrying first cousins, but
it was an opportunity to do that. And I said

(41:24):
this to a couple of reporters that have asked me
about it. And this is the this is the tongue
in cheek, part or partially tongue in cheek. To start with,
is that looking at the voting records of four of
those five Democrats that carry this old David County people,
by the way, that carried this bill, they've been in
bread for decades. Based on how they've been voting on budgets,

(41:47):
on gun laws, on anything constitutional, I'm certain that they've
had perhaps some even closer relationships.

Speaker 5 (41:57):
Well, that would have explained an awful lot there money. Look,
not to interrupt you, but the reason I mentioned this
is because the United Kingdom's National Health Service last week
talked about the benefits defended the benefits of marrying your
first cousin. Now, this is obviously a consequence of Islamization,
and this is not Islamophobia. I've lived the majority of

(42:17):
Muslim countries. But it's obviously cow telling to the growing
Muslim population in the United Kingdom because this is something
that most people in Western Europe and North America find
not legitimate and in many cases abhorrent. But the United
Kingdom's National Health Service is saying, go ahead, not boots
with your cousin. It's good, there's benefits to it. I

(42:40):
guess you just keep it in the family. That's the
reason I raise the question because this is shocking development
in the United Kingdom and the last thing I would
have expected when I started looking congressional records. There is
a mention of this in Tennessee. I mean, you know,
there's jokes people tell, but we're usually talking about Alabama
in Kentucky, not Tennessee.

Speaker 4 (42:57):
We have a member of Congress you married her brother though, remember.

Speaker 5 (43:00):
That, Well that's not Tennessee.

Speaker 7 (43:03):
And that's exactly of course, Yeah, that's okay, but or
she's something. I don't know what she is. But I
would offer this last thought to that that the same
people that offered this first cousins of opposite sex couldn't
get married, were okay with two men doing some abomination

(43:26):
of the ceremony that is not marriage right, And and
I just found the irony of that so so sick.
So there was two of us. I think me and
Bulso were the only ones that voted against that. And
you know, I'm not picking on my my all my
other other folks. Maybe they just didn't think through it.
They think, you know, why would you ever marry a

(43:47):
first cousin? I agree with that, okay, but really do
we need government telling us that overreach of a bunch
a great number of those peop in four out of
five of those folks, those Democrats that carry that veal
have never really accomplished anything successful in life that required

(44:09):
any deductive reasoning. So it just it forored me that
they would offer that because they can't pass anything else.
They were taking a jab at rural folks in Tennessee,
and I just didn't want to be a part of it.

Speaker 5 (44:24):
Well, that does surprise me, all trying to upset your
rural base. Uh you know, look, I mean, why would
you mary first cut? Maybe she's smoking hot. I don't know.
I'm just saying, maybe she's.

Speaker 4 (44:32):
Adopted and she's smoking hot, and you're not really closed.

Speaker 5 (44:35):
I don't know, she's not your first cousin.

Speaker 7 (44:38):
Again, boys, if you're marrying your first cousin, you need
to travel, boards you But who can.

Speaker 5 (44:44):
Afford to travel? Monty? That Joe Biden inflation has made
me a paupers retired colonel. I can't go anywhere. I
don't get out.

Speaker 1 (44:51):
Family reunions are not dating opportunities.

Speaker 5 (44:54):
No, they're not, since since when sorry to do we
lose money money? Okay, let me just go back to
the institution of marriage a little bit.

Speaker 7 (45:04):
There.

Speaker 5 (45:04):
You're a person of faith, and that's why I just
give it a second before I quit boguarding the hour
from everyone else. But you know, one of the things
that many conservatives were upset about when the same sex
marriage topic came up is that a lot of people
took offense to it. Not so much about keeping two
people who care about each other apart, although that is
an issue for some folks. But the real issue is

(45:24):
that marriage itself, at its core, is a religious institution,
not a state function. States sanction that to grant legal
rights like parenting and inheritance and things like that. But
it's a religious institution. Churches and people of faith came
up with the institution of marriage to unite people to
pro create, and when people call it marriage, some people

(45:47):
have major issues with that. For me, personally, I had
less of an issue if people were talking about what
the government was conferring. That's a separate issue. In a
civil union. Is this an argument that resonates or am
I just you know, not getting enough oxygen at this
hour because I'm thinking about my cousin.

Speaker 7 (46:03):
It does resonated. I will tell you I think that
the the the liberty loving person when they hear I
must get a permit to get married, should be asking
a question from whom That's God, that's it, that's that's
the family, and from Almighty God. That's something you prayerfully

(46:23):
consider and and you you engage your family and the
person that you're referring to getting married to. So I
think that there's an overreach in that. I will tell
you most of my Democrat friends, they're okay with government
being involved in every decision you make, from whether you

(46:44):
take the jab, from whether you marry this person that person,
what you eat, what you're allowed to drive, all those
kinds of things. But unfortunately some of the Republicans are
just as bad about it. We we have allowed a
generational failure in our pursuit of liberty. I have to

(47:04):
believe that those those fifty six signers of that Declaration
of Independence, if you gave them just an inkling of
what we must get a permit to do today, they
would be taking up arms again. Absolutely, and we've got
to push back. We've got to be men of courage,

(47:25):
We've got to be men of resolve, because we are
trending in the wrong direction in the entire United States
and even my beloved state of Tennessee. And again that
goes back to what I think we need liberty and
less government. I need less influence from my state government
and my federal government into the decisions I may each

(47:46):
it every day. And they shouldn't be trying to prevent behaviors.
They should be worried about punishing the consequences or punishing
the behaviors with a strong consequence. And you know, very
basic thing there. I think we have allowed government and

(48:07):
those in government to start to think, well, if we
could just decide who can or cannot carry a firearm,
we can stop crime. Well, that goes back to that
whole Jim Crow line of thought. So nebulous with the
intent to prevent is really just an opportunity for a
tyrant to flex his muscles. And that applies the marriage, guns,

(48:32):
business license whatever.

Speaker 5 (48:35):
One hundred percent with you on that one. So Todd,
you know you, you and money are both Tennesseeans volunteers
and literally volunteers. He's serving uniform as well, and saw
it to serving government. I have some good news for
you tonight, folks. I was concerned, honestly concerned about the
welfare and health of Dolly Parton. She made a video
earlier on which she said she's not on her deathbed.
She's some procedures to some good news for Tennesseeans, because

(48:57):
you know, she's got Dollywood down there in Gatlinburg and
people love her in Tennessee. But I'm Todd before I
handed back to you, I don't know if if Money
becomes governor, maybe he can do something helping out the predators,
making competitive get in the NHL. They look kind of
sad these days. But Todd, why don't you take over?

Speaker 4 (49:13):
Well? Yeah, well, Tennessee's busy building building a dome stadium
for the Titans down there in Nashville. That's what's going on.
Maybe that's where the money's being shifted over from the preds.
I don't know, but money. A few weeks ago, we
saw you know, Governor Bill Lee up up in Washington
in the Oval Office behind you know, President Trump, and
we also saw our senators behind him as he was
talking about sending National Guard to Memphis, and you just

(49:34):
talked about, you know, we should just be working on
that internally. And of course, Billy's been in office for
you know, going on seven years this coming January. Why
hasn't he done anything to tackle the Memphis problem thus far?
And he just set timidly behind the president as he
talked about Tennessee and Memphis of being just you know,
a horrible, horrible city run by Democrats running to the ground.
Why hasn't Republicans in the state is stepped up, especially

(49:57):
our governor.

Speaker 7 (49:58):
Well, I don't know if I have, but why I
can tell you the what? And and so you know,
we're in Memphis, uh, in West Tennessee. Last week campaigning,
I was in Fayette County, Tippe County, and Shelby County
and so I door knock down in Orangemount and I
think that's District ten. And I think that's where the

(50:20):
high crime rates are. And I think that a leader
goes to where the fire is felt, and I think
a leader goes down and ask those people, those firefighters.
And we did a little impromptu fire hall town hall
police officers, those those mothers of police officers, those deputy

(50:45):
sheriffs and those people that live in those neighborhoods. Let's
go ask them. And you know, I would challenge I
want to challenge government le because I don't even know
that he understands that, to be honest with you, but
I would challenge the the people running for this office
go down and listen to those people. I would challenge
Senator Blackburn and Congressman Rose go to Memphis, go Dornock

(51:08):
in Orange Man, listen to those people because it's one
of the three of us, and you know it's going
to hurt their feelings to hear that it's gonna be me.
I'm gonna win this. They just don't realize that. But
you need to understand how the people in Memphis have
been hurting, and how that they feel abandoned, and how

(51:30):
I have heard that folks in Nashville and government positions
suggest that maybe that Memphis just we should give it
to Arkansas, which is such a stupid statement. That Memphis
is the Tennessee pearl on the Mississippi River. We should
be looking for law and order and prosperity for Mensians,

(51:52):
Shelby coumpions. We should be trying to you know, I
did the whole energy policy thing in Tennessee, and if
restructures the Energy Policy Camp, we've got one percent of
the nation suite crouper finding a Tennessee that should be
two percent and three percent because those are good jobs
for Mencians. That's good revenue that comes into the state
through those jobs, right, And there's fewer price perturbations due

(52:15):
to the weather in Memphis, Tennessee than there is a
Lake Charles, Louisiana or Houston, Texas. And so it just
frustrates me that we have a group of men and women.
So I don't know who really tells Governor Lee what
to do, but there's a group of folks there that

(52:37):
I guess lead by collective committee. And that's not what
it takes anything two headed to free. We've got to
have somebody in charge, and right now I just don't
feel like we have that. Right, I'm gonna for Todd
for us Tennessee's if you hire friends, I promise you
will like what I say some of the times when

(52:57):
I say things that just absolutely offend the hell out it.

Speaker 4 (53:00):
Well, true truth hurts sometimes, Right.

Speaker 7 (53:02):
You're not gonna have to worry about what I'm thinking,
and you won't to have to worry about me leaving.

Speaker 5 (53:07):
There you go.

Speaker 4 (53:08):
So, yeah, we've got a couple of minutes here left.

Speaker 5 (53:10):
Uh.

Speaker 4 (53:10):
You know, whenever the attack ads come, and you know
they're gonna come, and they're gonna be bought and paid
for from Washington money and big lobbyists out of Nashville,
what's the what's the counter to that? What's Fritz gonna do?
What's money gonna do? Is it gonna be positive counter
counting with positive ads and et cetera? What what is
your your reply to the attack ads are gonna that
are going to come?

Speaker 7 (53:29):
Well, two things first, we're going to find this on
my terms, not theirs.

Speaker 5 (53:34):
Good.

Speaker 7 (53:35):
The British come into the colonies intending to put hundreds
of bread coats on and just overwhelm the colonists, and
General Washington decided to fight in a different manner. I
will do that. And and you know, I don't think
it does any good for name calling. And I don't
know how, you know, politics of rotten business. I don't

(53:57):
know what that means. Where it will go, who knows,
But I'm gonna pray about it. I'm gonna love those
people that hate me. I may talk straight to them.
I may I may offend them greatly with straight talk,
but I'm gonna keep loving them. I'm gonna pray for them,
and I'm gonna pray for the benefit of Tennessee and
that they will if if they are if they do

(54:19):
send out lies and slams, and you know, I'm gonna
pray that they'll repent because that's a sin.

Speaker 4 (54:25):
Absolutely.

Speaker 7 (54:26):
Money facts, I'm gonna stick to the facts, the voting records,
what was done with budgets, and how many years these
people have served, and how they they voted to certify
and illegitimate president they have it stood up for our
gun rights, and how they've overseen a federal debt that

(54:47):

Speaker 1 (56:45):

you're listening to common sense conservatile. Here WSMN fifteen ninety
on your AM dial and ninety five point three on
your FM dial, and you can catch us at WSMN
dot live. Hey, Chris, you owe me to back.

Speaker 5 (57:01):
Yeah, no, I was here all along. I got distracted
smashing trolls online.

Speaker 1 (57:06):
Oh the most fun.

Speaker 5 (57:10):
Yeah, well it's it's it's a hobby, I guess. Yeah, that's.
There's some really stupid people in this world. I have
to tell you. It's you know, it amazes me just
how stupid some people are. It's it's incredible, you know.
I just, uh, I was someone did a video about
another content creator, and they attacked that person. And I'm

(57:31):
not even part of it. But then I wind up
in the conversation being attacked, and and idiots are talking
about you know, they're talking to a third person whose
video who made this, saying that you're the guy that
knows that these guys don't what they're talking about. I'm
a historian, I'm a political scientist. I'm a university lecturer,
a professor. I'm a thirty plus year intelligence analyst. I'm
a published author in academic circles and popular press. I'm

(57:53):
a radio content commentator. I think I might know a
little something about what I'm talking about. As supposed to
some guy describe me as the person that they're actually
in favor of. It's just ludicrous. People will drink whatever
kool aid is put in front of them. There are
some really truly stupid people in this world, and it
just it beggars the imagination how stupid people can be.
But then I look around and I see, you know,

(58:15):
people who profess to be part of the gay community
Gaze for Gaza? Are you morons? You do realize they'll
drop you off a roof for your sexuality? Why are
you got gaze for Gaza? And then and it's look,
I'm sorry, I just you know that break listening to
the news gave me too much time to read nonsense
from trolls. But we've got news to talk about. Nobody
wants to hear about trolls tonight. They want to hear
about what's going on. So JB. Pritzker, mister, I've never

(58:39):
refused to donut in my life, billionaire mouthpiece for the
political left right around lying about Trump going after people
because they're brown, just race hustling, slimy human being, heir
to a pharmaceutical fortune. There you go, there's another reason
why I just like him. Any thoughts on what's going
on with J. D. Pritzker and his arrogant attitude towards
the present and it's staying for America is a safety?

Speaker 1 (59:01):
Any thoughts, John, Oh, Yeah, he's a stinking Democrat from one.
But you see people in the anti Antifa movement, they're
regarding him in his comments and stuff like give me
a kind of an idea that that maybe he's one
of these democrats that they talk about that are kind
of involved with the Antifa and the activities of Antifa

(59:24):
No King's organization and things like that.

Speaker 5 (59:28):
I don't know. I just know that the guy's never
said anything that makes any sense even remotely when I
hear him talk, and everything he says is pretty much appalling,
and it's anti American, it's anything anti Trump. You know,
the left really is not getting it, john They are
losing on all fronts. You know, they think they're winning,
like with a shutdown. Sixty five percent of poll respondents
are angry at the Democrats, not angry Republicans. This is

(59:50):
not going well for them. And JB. Pritzker and Brandon
Johnson's you know, you know remember that let's go Brandon, Well,
I guess we can apply to this idiot in Chicago,
you know, let's go get going brand and maybe we
could try that one. They really don't get this look
they and I guess it's because they've allowed the city
of Chicago be fled with so many criminal alien invaders
that they think that they have a big enough constituency

(01:00:12):
that they can spew this hatred of America and this
danger to our society by letting people whose first acting
in our country is to commit a felony and violate
our sovereignty. That's not a good neighbor. That's not a
good person.

Speaker 1 (01:00:24):
That's not governor who's interested in protecting his own citizens. So,
you know, and it's interesting because of some guys like
him saying Trump shouldn't be bringing a national guard. It's
an American and it's a dictator. It shows what a
dictator he is. But you know, I recall a certain
law that we've talked about on the show many times,
saying that Trump has the legal authority to operate with

(01:00:46):
National Guard within state boundaries as long as the state's
not enforcing the laws, even their own laws.

Speaker 5 (01:00:53):
In fact, you're correct, the Insurrection Act gives him a
lot of authority to deal with things. The only thing
on the Insteraction actually has to warn the insrectionist, and
I don't know that he's done that, so I might
run into some little legal trouble there. I'm not a
legal expert consciential law, but I do know that on
the Interaction Act, you the president is supposed to inform
the in directions and give them a chance to back
down before we send in forces to go after them.

Speaker 1 (01:01:15):
Well, so he did kind of when he declared uh
Antifa as a terrorist organization, did he not?

Speaker 5 (01:01:22):
Well, I think that's slippery ground. We got to be
careful there because in fact, it's not just Antifa, it's
you know a lot of these people they are out
there now, are just these pro Palestinian America haters, anti
Christian scumbags that are out there demonstrating in favor of
a terrorist state of Gaza run by Hamas. So they're
not part of Antifa. So I mean, it's just something

(01:01:44):
got to be very careful about.

Speaker 1 (01:01:45):
Yeah, but you know the thing about a Chris is
these guys are breaking laws. Okay, we had some. They're
going after ICE left and right, and then we're not
talking about They're out there shaking their fists and the
holding up signs and they're saying hell, no, we won't
go or whatever whatever they chant. Nowadays they're doing is
running up on ICE agents with their car, using their
car as a weapon, then wielding a firearm and yelling

(01:02:06):
and screaming at ICE agents, threatening them. They've tried to
shoot I ICE agents. They've attacked ICE agents. They're over
there Oregon doing it. Now. You got people over there saying,
oh no, Trump can't bring National Guard in. But they're
at the headquarters of ICE, they're at the headquarters of
the NHS, and they're attacking these people. They're going they're
not peaceful protesters here. And at some point in time,
if the governor is not willing to step up, and

(01:02:27):
Trump has already given enough warning with the governor, say
we're bringing in the National Guard. We've all across this
country have heard it. So now when he brings in
the National Guard, they've had fair warning. Man, they're violating laws,
and they're in the process of violating laws. And if
the governor's not willing to step up and make sure,
or your local police chief and your mayorage aren't willing
to step up and make sure their laws are enforced,
somebody's got to do it. The same people on the

(01:02:49):
left that keep saying that we got to take your
guns away, we need an I saw somebody calming here
about you need to rethink your naive approach to gun policy, Pablo.
But now that they're on you your YouTube channel, and
the thing about it is, it's not a naive approach.
We have a constitutional right. The solutions need to be
viable to our constitutional rights. But there's no solution when

(01:03:11):
mayors and governors and people in authoritative positions refuse to
enforce their own laws and allow us to go on
a love the threat of violence. So that allowed the
threat of life to go on, and then journal I'll say, oh,
we need to take away your guns because those are
acts of violence, and those things lead to violence and
people die from them. You know, I got a big
fat middle finger for those people.

Speaker 5 (01:03:33):
Well, the number of fatalities from automobile accidents far exceeds
a number from firearms every year, So shall we ban automobiles?

Speaker 1 (01:03:40):
It was about it's relatively close. I think we're around
forty thousand a year.

Speaker 5 (01:03:43):
Really, you know, now both are much lower than that.
It was fifty thousand automobile deaths per year thirty years ago.
It's down in the twenties now. And the number of
people murderous countries and the teens in the thousands compared
to what it used to be. But the point is
that should we take away cars? Should we take away cars?
I mean stupid, you know, And it doesn't matter this this,
this is an idiotic argument. First off, let's pretend that

(01:04:05):
we're all in favor of disarming America. How are you
going to do it? Four hundred and fifty million firearms
in a country where nearly two hundred million people are
licensed firearmowners.

Speaker 1 (01:04:14):
Well, they going to do that. They've been in the
process of doing it. Chris, Uh, you want to buy
buy a fully automatic firearm, a weapon, a rifle. You
can't do it. They've taken that right away. Already, and
you're talking about being an erosion of our rights.

Speaker 5 (01:04:29):
You were talking about the erosion of secondment rights. I'm
talking about the existing ownership of firearms, four and fifty
million firearms and the hands of Americans that we know about.
They're legal. How are you going to go about confiscating
four and fifty million firearms. You're gonna be an awful
lot of dead revenuers.

Speaker 1 (01:04:43):
You can't. Winds has already overruled most of their bills
that they passed that we're running at me bump stocks.

Speaker 5 (01:04:48):
And John John got you. But but you also cannot
abridge the right to free speech or the press. But
the Biden regime did it. Nonetheless, you cannot spy on
members or citizens without a predicate basis for doing it.
Yet we know that eight senators were spied upon by
the corrupt Biden regime and the biggest scandal in American history,

(01:05:09):
and nobody's talking about it. Yeah, nobody. None of these
fake media outlets are talking about it. They want to
talk about Trump putting troops in the cities. It is
all about the crimes the Biden regime in violation of
the First Amendment of the Constitution and that's what we
need to be talking about. And James Coming needs to
be convicted and sentenced to wearing orange jumpsuits. You know,
orange is the new color, is new blacks. I'm going

(01:05:31):
out outside. You got gunshots? What's going on? See you
turn around looking there?

Speaker 1 (01:05:34):
No, I keep back, I keep looking at the clock.
What it is is because the way the boards built
up this week, I don't have ultro music and stuff,
so I kind of trying to keep it in my
head though, how I'm going to handle at the end
of the show. That's all.

Speaker 5 (01:05:47):
Yeah, So where I was going with the firearms is
to take the firearms away. Then just like Berlin and
parasite used cars to run over people, or London on London.

Speaker 1 (01:05:55):
Bridge, knife attacks all went up.

Speaker 5 (01:05:58):
Or knife attacks, Yeah, just like London, and then they
ban knives so you can't carry knives. It just gives
it becomes reach level insanity. You cannot stop this by
taking things away because murderers, criminals will find other methods
do it, and then citizens are unable to defend themselves.
And that's what they want. These morons who cannot put

(01:06:19):
two sticks together and get any spark, think that they
can control human behavior by taking things away. It does
not work that way. At some point people just beat
each other to death. There are psychopaths who have no
remorse in society. In every country. There are people who
do not care about the sanctity of human life. We
know this because they support abortion. They happily murder children

(01:06:41):
in the womb because they support that. They don't care
about human life, and they think they can dictate. These
people are evil and must be excised from the body politic,
you know, legitimately not taking them out.

Speaker 1 (01:06:53):
Yeah, yeah, you know, I do. I don't mind mentioning that.
Australia here recently, what the fifth of October this year
just had a mass shooting, eighteen people injured.

Speaker 5 (01:07:02):
They don't have come, but they don't have guns. They
took all the guns away. Yeah, yeah, And what do
they do when it took the guns away? During the
COVID scam, when six hundred and fifty thousand people showed
up every week to protest in Melbourne, the cops came
out with truncheons and beat lawful, peaceful protesters on the streets.
They dragged it, beat women. I have the video of it.
I covered it live as it unfolded every week in Australia.

(01:07:24):
That's what happens when governments have the sole use of
deadly force. When they have the only one with the power,
they abuse it. It doesn't matter what country it is.

Speaker 1 (01:07:34):
You mean, like they did to Canadians when they were
protesting in twenty twenty.

Speaker 5 (01:07:37):
Two and the truck drivers.

Speaker 1 (01:07:38):
Yeah, and they come out there and stumped them with
horses and rode them down and pretty much walked all
over them and then violated well, I don't know. I
can't say they violated the rights because I don't know
what the rights are in Canada, but if there were
anything equal to the United States, they would have been
violating the rights left and right. But poor Canadians don't
have those same rights as far as they.

Speaker 5 (01:07:58):
Do Canada's and bad way patriotic Canadians are kind of
stuck at lost. You know. I was in canadaf years
ago for their their celebration of the one hundred and
seventy fifth anniversary or something like that, one to fiftieth whatever,
no onces been because eighteen sixty seven, I think is
when they became a dominion anyway, but it's a major
anniversary in the history of Canada. You never know it.

(01:08:19):
I couldn't find anything celebrating and honoring their history. They
were ashamed of their history. They didn't tell it. You know,
they're probably talking about how they stole the land from
the First Nations. Oh God, that's vomit inducing every time
you hear it. We proudly stand here as colonizers, having
stolen this land from the indigenous First Nation people of
the made up tribe that never existed and didn't live here.

(01:08:39):
But we still admit that we stole the end from them,
but we're not going to give it back. So don't bother.
But we do this virtue signaling nonsense to show where
good honest leftist morons.

Speaker 1 (01:08:48):
Oh so I just buy self loathing. If people read history,
they would understand it's not just the United States, it's
the nature what they think. They weren't a lot of
a lot of regards regarding a lot of matters. You know,
you go to Jackson, that thing was horrible, you know,
the trail of tiers and stuff like that. Yeah, yeah,
we've had that's on Jackson.

Speaker 5 (01:09:09):
John John And who was that Andrew Jackson, the first
president Democratic Party?

Speaker 1 (01:09:15):
Yep, yep, yeah, Oh no, I don't mind. And there
was something that followed him too. Yeah, they did erroneous things.
And that's what it means being power. And that's why
it's important for us to recognize history and see what
things have were gone wrong, and it's stuff that's happened
today with people like Joe Biden say, look, we've got
to use some common sense when voting for president of
the United States. We just can't get any Yahoo went

(01:09:35):
office because they've got a great deal of power. I mean, like,
if you look at US Code ten US Code section
two fifty three, the president has a lot of power
to raise the militia against its citizens. If he's wielding
that thing recklessly, that's not gonna be good for us.
But you know, if you got somebody who's responsible as president,

(01:09:56):
we're being able to wield his power responsibly. And Trump
has shown that. He is shown that when when Supreme War,
when a district courts like moved against him in Oregon,
he okay, I'll respect the law. You made it, you
made a judgment, and we'll see what we can do
to get around it. If we can't, we can. If
we can, we'll work around it, or will appeal it.
To a higher court. This is what he does every time.

Speaker 5 (01:10:16):
You know, yeah, look, it's it's the thing is the
difference between us and the political left is that we'll
be honest about things. I mean, who was the first
Republican president was Abraham Lincoln. But Lincoln was far from perfect.
The Lincoln violated the Constitution by suspending habeas corpus on
multiple occasions and detaining people just on the basis of

(01:10:36):
suspicion as if they were guilty. That is not acceptable.
They they rounded up lawmakers in Maryland from the House
of Delegates and put them in prison just because they
were talking about secession. And that's that wasn't the government's
right to do. They had not led an insurrection. They
were simply talking about something that had been yet to
be clearly defined by the Constitution in existing law, whether
states can succeed or secede or not. No. So Lincoln

(01:10:58):
wasn't perfect. And we talked that also linking it's all
the credit for freeing the slaves link it didn't free
any slaves. The Emancipation Proclamation was simply a tool to
weaken the Confederate military because it stated in areas under
the control of the Union Army. Anyone in bondage was
now considered free and protected by the Union Army. Well,
much of the South wasn't in Union hands until eighteen

(01:11:19):
sixty five, as slavery continued. That's why this whole thing,
with this made up, bogus, idiotic race pandering June teenth
Holiday is ridiculous. If people want to celebrate the end
of slavery in this country, chattel slavery, then the date
must be the sixth of December, because that's when the
thirteenth invent was ratified by the States, not in insurrection.
In eighteen sixty five, just months after the end of

(01:11:39):
Civil War. Chattel slavery ended legally in this country, and
not some fictitious date when a Union general rocked up
someplace in Texas and said you're all free now, Yet
seventy five percent of the soil of Texas was still
under the institution of slavery. These people are historically ignorant.
The harm they do is unbelievable, and the race hustling
and panting they do is disgusting. And it's the same
thing with the sec Amendment people that hate the Second Amendment,

(01:12:01):
and the same thing with these pro murdered children, crowd,
they're historically ignorant, they're shameful, they're morally bankrupt, and they're
a disgrace to humanity. There, I said it.

Speaker 1 (01:12:11):
I like it when people make comparisons to Chicago population
of nine million people Switzerland population of nine million people. Know,
compare mass shootings rate and shootings overall? Does does Switzerland
have politicians running out there encouraging violence? Because we've heard
it from maximum American I mean, you're sitting there trying
to tell us about these comparisons, but I'm sorry the
we we've actually seen our US politicians on the left

(01:12:35):
encouraging physical violence, encouraging riding in the streets. Though they
don't say it directly, like go out there and burn
down buildings because they can't because they be held accountable.
But they've encouraged it time and time again. We've heard
it out of their mouths. We know what they meant
by what they've said. They stand by it, they stand
behind it, and enough is enough of these dirty politicians.

Speaker 5 (01:12:56):
So we talk about a lot about Chicago, and Chicago
is bad. It's better the Memphis, though, but it's it's
worse than Nashville. It's seventeen murders per one hundred thousand
rest it's triple the United States rate triple. So Trump
is right. It's a war zone, and so is Nashville,
and so is Memphis. And what are these all things?
These things have in common Democratic mayors, democratic governments for decades,

(01:13:18):
that's one thing that have in common. They have many
other things in common, but that's one of the biggest
problems they have one percent. I mean, that's that's what
we're talking about here, and and people want to deny it.
They want to dance around it and be fancy pants
about stuff they're simply wrong.

Speaker 1 (01:13:31):
Oh wait, major here. Tim Waltz is governor of Minnesota,
talk about opening up the window and enjoying the sounds
of the burning buildings or whatever it was. He was
like implying that that in his own street, his wife, okay,
the violence that went on in their own streets was
something to be admired, you know, something to be to
be taken in as something good to have happened. I mean,

(01:13:54):
that's not what we would expect in leadership for politicians.
If you want to go well, we need Chris. We
don't need politicians. We need statesmen. That's what we need.
We don't have statesmen anymore. We have politicians, and these
politicians are encouraging writing in the streets. A statesman would
stand up and do us right for the country.

Speaker 5 (01:14:13):
Well, you know, some people feel the need to flee
from our great, wonderful country. They talk about all the
time when the Democrats destroy this country and undermine our
legitimate center sovereignty and put us to the mercy of
people who are violently opposed to our cultural norms, morays
and values and our laws and try to colonize us
from within. Because of our generosity, they stay, but then

(01:14:33):
you know they threaten to leave when people like Trump
or Bush become president. Well, one of them actually left,
you know. Rosie o'donnald says she's living in self imposed
political exile, and she decided to move to Ireland amid
ongoing few with she has with President Trump. And here's
some really good news for Rosi. She said, she's applying
and about to be approved for Irish citizenship because our
grandparents are from Ireland and that's all you need. Well, good,

(01:14:55):
stay there and renounce your American citizenship. And then in
this banner for coming the country. Don't ever need to
see her horrible face again. What a nasty, nasty person,
Rose o'donnalis.

Speaker 1 (01:15:05):
So who do the people of Ireland write their nasty
letter to? And regarding Rosie o'donna moving over there and
taking up space.

Speaker 5 (01:15:12):
The Irish people have been new to twenty five percent
of the countries overrun with illegal immigrants who have flooded
into the country. Irish are being abused left and right
by their government. Their cities are falling apart, their residences
attorney in the ghettos, the streets of Dublin and all
these other cities are nothing but third world crap holes.
Now it's Ireland is gone. It's so sad to see
the Irish who have immigrated all over the world have

(01:15:34):
lost their homeland. It's in the process of disappearing, and
it's all for passports convenience. And the Irish politicians are
scumbags who've sold the Irish people down the river and
ought to be taken out and tarred and feathered by
their own people most likely, I would expect at some point.

Speaker 1 (01:15:49):
Well, they've tried to do it. Here's that's the whole thing.
They've tried to do the same thing here. Didn't they
open up the borders?

Speaker 5 (01:15:55):
Oh yeah, of course, of course. But we've put a
stop to it for the time being. We just need
to make sure that Democrats don't get in power in
the next election cycle and keep this under control. Otherwise
we get more jack Smiths who illegally spy on members
of Congress to go on a fishing expedition to try
to find a trumped up predicate to get a warrant
to get criminal charge against people who have comitted no crimes.

Speaker 1 (01:16:18):
You don't happen to have a list of those nine,
do you.

Speaker 5 (01:16:22):
Well? It was Marshall Blackburn, she was one of them.
Ron Johnson was another. South Carolina's Lindsey Graham, And there's
severals and one member of the House representative. Of course,
we already knew they did this to my representative, Scott Perry,
who has had to spend over one million dollars to
defend himself over bogus allegations that he was involved insurrection
that never took place. This is what they do. They

(01:16:43):
use law, fair and the power of the person, the
government which has endless power taking our tax dollars and
bearing us in debt to prosecute people for crimes that
are fictitious and never existed. I mean, look no further
than Jack Smith, looking further than Fanny Willis, looked there,
further than what's that that tablar dere Alvin Bragg in
New York Continy's name early today, all these fictitious prosecutions
against Trump over made up nonsense trying to bankrupt people.

(01:17:05):
Trump as a billionaire, he was able to stand it
and hold on there and fight. But the rest of
us can't do that. When the government comes with false charges.
Most of us have in a choice like General Flynn,
but you know, to take a plea bargain, you know,
over crime we never committed in order to avoid gail time.
But then yeah, you're called a criminal. And that's what
they do. This is abuse, and this is what this
criminal regime of Biden did. And the same thing happened Obama.

(01:17:27):
Obama spied on New York Times and Washington Post reporters
who were writing stories that were negative about them but accurate.
They didn't like it, and they they also did the
same thing to other members of society, and violation of
the law, in violation of the Constitution. In the first Amendment.
It's sick, it's twisted. And the fact that the media,
who are actually the ones spied on, don't even scream

(01:17:48):
and squawk about this shows you just how complicit they
are in this oppression of the American people. They're complicit
in it, and they do it for money and for attention.
They're disgraceful human beings. They're Jimmy Kimmels. That's how will
describe evil people now, discussing evil people. They're just Jimmy Kimmel's.
They're Kimmels, you know, you know how like Harry Potter,
the Muggles, Well, these are Kimmels. Absolutely, I've just coined

(01:18:10):
that Frint.

Speaker 1 (01:18:11):
Yeah, but and Harry Potter were being discriminated against by
the pure blood.

Speaker 5 (01:18:15):
You remember, No, no, no, no, you Muggles are just
just people, the people of no magic whatsoever. The idiots
are just Kimmels. So we're gonna call idiots Kimmels from
now on. They're just Kimmels.

Speaker 1 (01:18:26):
Yeah, I got you, man. Yeah, that's a good that's
a good way to put it for all.

Speaker 5 (01:18:30):
I like it. I'm gonna use it. They're just Kimmels.
I'll use that tonight on my broadcast. Oh my goodness,
apparently at least Stephonic is catching up to the evil
Kathy Hokeel in the race for the governorship of New York.
I thought she was way behind, but apparently she's closed
the gap. A new poll shows that New York Is
twenty twenty six governor race is only a five point race.

(01:18:51):
Now yeah, wow, at least Stephonic is at forty three
forty eight percent. But when voters learned that local endorse
Zorn Mamdanni from mayor, Stephanic leads hocal. So that needs
to be reinforced the Republican Party in New York and
voters need to be made aware of the fact that

(01:19:11):
Hokl is endorsing the fascist is Lamis Merrial candidate for
New York City, Zoraan Mamdani, because that flips it around
and gives at least a Phonic a half point lead
in the poll of the same people who said they
would have voted for Hokeel until then they found out
that that idiot scumbag voted for Zoram Mamdani. I think

(01:19:31):
that's important and they need they need to hone that
message and drive it home before this race is.

Speaker 1 (01:19:36):
Over, says a lot about where principles lie.

Speaker 5 (01:19:40):
Well, look at Nancy Pelosi. You've got this idiot in
Virginia who's running for what is it, attorney to not trades,
running for some office in Virginia, and he talks about
how he fantasizes about, you know, killing Republicans. He says this,
and Nancy plus he says, well, on balance, he's a
better candidate. Really, I think he's a bit un bound.
Maybe she's getting some mental care.

Speaker 1 (01:20:02):
Yeah, uh yeah, that's kind of a strange thing to say,
especially if you want to run for office. You don't
find people on the right saying these things. I haven't
heard anybody.

Speaker 5 (01:20:14):
I haven't either. I don't hear Republicans and citing violence
and calling people I don't ever call a Republican president
presidential cand or sitting president running for office suggesting that
his opponent should be assassinated. But Joe Biden did that
last year.

Speaker 1 (01:20:30):
Well, you mean put a bullseye and his backman assassinate him.

Speaker 5 (01:20:33):
Yeah, and that's exactly what happened days.

Speaker 1 (01:20:36):
Yeah, that's that's what I mean. Earlier were talking about
that they incite violence and then claim the right is
the ones being violent. You know, the right or the fascist,
but when they're doing the fascist things.

Speaker 5 (01:20:50):
Yeah, now it's unbelievable what they do. These people are evil, immoral,
file repul of anti human reprobates, and they need to
be exposed for that. They need to exposed to that.
Notice that I didn't bring faith, God, religion in any
of that. That's just common sense and morality. These people

(01:21:12):
have no morality none whatsoever. They're just evil spawn.

Speaker 1 (01:21:17):
Yeah, that's about to some of it. Yeah, so let's shutdown. Man,
what do you think.

Speaker 5 (01:21:26):
The shutdown? Well, I'm not losing any sleepover it. I
was surprised I got paid. I'll tell you that, John.
I was out west and of course two hours buying
here in the Mountain time zone. So after midnight, about
one o'clock in the morning here at eleven o'clock there,
I went and checked my bank account and I didn't
have any money. So I figured, well, I'm not getting paid.
But like a smart and responsible adult, I planned for

(01:21:47):
this contingency because I expect it to happen, and so
I paid my mortgage ten days early and paid all
my utility bills. The things that hurt your credit or
hurts your credit rating. Very quickly before the month even ended,
and then I was able to positions some savings around
so that just in case. Anyway, the next day I
actually got my pay. I was a bit surprised my
retirement pay. Although they're saying that military aren't going to

(01:22:09):
get their mid month pay here on the fifteenth. I
don't know if that's going to happen not next week,
but I was a bit surprised. I'm not losing any sleepover.
It has had a tangible impact on me, but a
minor one so far in that I went to Craters
of the Moon National Monument on my way back, and
when I got there headed back to Sun Valley. I'd
been there the week prior when it was open. The
visitor's center was closed because they couldn't have it open

(01:22:31):
because they're non essential. The park was, the monument was open.
You could drive in and you could actually go camp
and not have to pay anything and pay no entry fees.
So you know, it didn't really affect me other than that,
but it does affect a lot of people. I see
that Trump as being very clever. He's using the money
that's pouring in from the tariffs to fund wick for
low income mothers and children. And he's also going to

(01:22:52):
use it to compensate some of the farmers who are
suffering because the Chinese are playing playing like fools over
soybean imports. They're refusing the import of trying to cripple
US farmers. So Trump is going to use some of
those tariffs to subsidize I don't like subsidies, but I
understand why this is happening, and and and I generally
am wholehardly against this sort of thing, but I empathize

(01:23:14):
with the farmers because they didn't know this was going
to happen. When they planed this. They expectations Chinese would
buy it like they always do, and the Chinese are
just being jerks about it. So Trump is trying to
ensure they don't have multi billion dollar losses. So, okay,
the tariffs, I'm okay with that. That's but the Trump
administration is coming up creative ways to keep essential services
going that aren't really considered essential services by the government

(01:23:35):
during this shutdown. So I don't I'm not losing sleep
over the shutdown. And as far as I'm concerned, you know,
if they you know, as long as it isn't hurting people.
They can let it run as long as they want
because there's no superfluous or ridiculous spending. They can't make
bad decisions and waste money. Now, a lot of that
money will be wasted once it comes back because they
have back pay from people furloughed the ida IDEAD, But
many of the dumb decisions money being spent won't be spent.

(01:23:56):
And that's a good thing.

Speaker 1 (01:23:57):
There you go. But why are we shut down? That's
the that's the fact of the man er. I mean,
because the Republicans won't move on subsidizing certain healthcare and
stuff like that. You know, Obamacare was passed quite some
time ago. They'd recognized it was flawed, said they were
going to fix those flaws, never did anything to improve
anything on it. And we have been subsidizing Obamacare in

(01:24:17):
the summer billions a year since what twenty twelve. If
it can't pay for itself as a business, then it's
a flawed business to begin with, you know what I mean,
Why do we have such a thing, Why do we
not have just a private enterprise again, whereas it's not
so sustaining.

Speaker 5 (01:24:36):
Yeah, well, the problem with this is that the Unaffordable
Care Act is a scam, and it's always been a scam,
and the American public is gullible and fell for the
scam because Barry Hussein Obama told us that he was
going to make healthcare affordable for Americans, that nobody would
pay more than X amount of money for premiums, and
he lied to us, and we knew he lied, and
some of us said that he lied, and the public

(01:24:59):
just drank the pool aid and believe the nonsense. The
immediate impact of the Affordable Care Act was the you
cannot deny coverage as an insurance company for pre existing conditions,
which meant that companies would be bankrupted by people with
chronic conditions that cost hundreds of thousands or millions of
dollars to treat on an annual basis, and companies could
not refuse it. Then, of course we had the whole

(01:25:19):
religious nonsense, where the state intruded into religious beliefs and
violation of the First Amendment freedom of religion by forcing
Catholic charities to pay for abortions which are not into
So this Unaffordable Care Act. The first thing that it
did was it corrupted the insurance market, the pharmaceuticals and
the insurance companies were dumb. They thought they gained the
system and they were going to benefit from this, when

(01:25:39):
in fact, they set themselves up from misery, and as
a consequence, they dramatically increased the cost of insurance premiums
because they had to cover ten million illegal aliens. They
had to provide health care to people who they should
not be providing health care too, because they can't afford
it and they have pre existing conditions. And twenty million
working Americans were thrown off of health insurance because it

(01:26:01):
was no longer feasible for these health insurance companies to
allow the premiums that were as low as that were,
and their employers refused to pay the higher premiums. So
twenty million hard working Americans were denied healthcare because of
Brock's aint. Obama a story that is still not talked
about to this day, and it drives me nuts. It
was an insurance market scam. The question I raised was
I was about to go into surgery right after this
stupid law was passed, and I was going in for

(01:26:24):
gallbladder surgery in Annapolis, and I was talking to them,
trying to be lighthearted. I told the antiest geologist I said, listen,
you know, instead of fixing tort reform and the ridiculous
settlements that come from malpractice, and instead of actually increasing
the number of doctors or medical schools, or nurses or
clinicians or things that we need in this country, all
we've done is screw up the insurance market. And so doc,

(01:26:48):
if you screw up my anesthesia, my errors will see
you for every pen you're worth. And the Indian doctor
standing here said till next to doctor in any nearing.
My surgeon said, oh, I loved understanding with these told
looking about. My point was that because there was no
tort reform, we're gonna get sixty million dollars if you
make me brain dead in the surgery. That was the point. Anyway,
The point of the whole story is that the Unaffordable

(01:27:10):
Care HECT is a scam. It remains a scam. It
should be abolished. The government has no role in health care.
There is nothing in this constitution that grants the government
the right to oversee, regulate, control, or pay for health care.
It is a socialist scam and it has destroyed the
free market and perverted the health insurance market in this
country and perverted healthcare. I got my bill the other

(01:27:30):
day for when I went to see these clowns that
want to rip my bone out and put plastic in
my hip because they make forty thousand dollars off of
not because I needed. That's their solutions. Surgeon hammer, Oh
there's a nail, We're going to take your hip. Well,
I refused. They charged two ndred or three hundred and
sums dollars, and then the government's insurance under Tricare agreed
to pay one hundred and twenty two and I always

(01:27:51):
build thirty eight dollars, so the actual payment to that
provider was about sixty percent of what they build. Somebody
has to eat that cost you. The people that pay cash,
that people pay out of their pocket, they pay the
full price because the government interfering in the marketplace, and
it's perverted the entire system, and it has done it
for decades. Medicare, Medicaid or abominations, and so is the

(01:28:13):
Unaffordable Care Act. It's disgusting.

Speaker 1 (01:28:15):
It seems like the left keep keep someone to create
these social programs, create a socialist democracy, I guess, as
they call it, and show me one that's ever worked.
Social Security doesn't work. Medicaid medicare issues and now Obamacare,
which is extension of what medicaid medicare, and.

Speaker 5 (01:28:35):
Yeah, it perverts those markets. But to be fair, John,
I'm not in favor of Social Security, but social Security
as it was presented, of course, the Roosevelt regime lied
to the Supreme Court said it was an at tax.
Then they were challenged after it was proved to stay.
It was a challenge saying that it's not attacks and
they can't do that. And then they said, yeah, is
it tax. We have the power to tax. So they

(01:28:57):
won both cases on a stacked Supreme Court. That's why
we have nine justices instead of a dozen now. But
to be fair, the SOCI security program was presented as
a safety net for people who didn't have retirement, but
it quickly morphed into an abomination in which Americans are
hoodwinked because they're uninformed and thinking that Social Security is
your retirement waities and gentlemen max amount of money get off.

(01:29:18):
So security doesn't cover many people's mortgages. In this country.
You can't survive off of SOCI security. And if you
make more than twenty thousand dollars or ten you get taxed.
On it. You've already paid taxes. That's what created so Security.
You shouldn't be paying taxes on the benefits. But because
the nineteen eighty six Social Security Agreement that the Reagan
administration came up with Congress, they double the rate of
taxation and they began taxing Social Security benefits for people

(01:29:42):
means testing, Well, it's not means testing. You're stealing my money.
Stop stealing my money. But it is not a retirement plan.
It is a supplemental So you are responsible for developing
your own retirement plan, whether it's saving, investing individual retirement
accounts for one K plans with employer, or simply putting
money on a sock drawer for a rainy day. That
is your personal responsibility. And we have made Americans lazy, ignorant, stupid, uninformed,

(01:30:07):
and poor because they think they're getting retirement program which
doesn't exist. Soci Security is a supplement and quite frankly,
I up until the age of fifty said I will
sign a legal document and abrogate all my rights to
collect any penny of Social Security in my life ever
as long as you stop taking money out of my check.
Up until the age fifty, I said, that consistently, and
I would have done it because I can make more

(01:30:29):
money investing that money. And if I'd had those fifteen
to seventeen years from the age of fifty to sixty
seven to invest that money, I would have created a
nest with my acumen and my experience in investing, I
would have created a nest for myself far greater than
the entire lifetime with socicurity benefits, even if I live
to be one hundred and thirty five. Trust me, I
did the math. The government is not the solution. The

(01:30:49):
government is the problem. The role of government is to
ensure a level playing field is so people don't take
advantage to cheat other people, and to protect our sovereignty
and to protect our cities. That is it. That is
it giving COVID jabs, determining school controls at the national level.
That is not the role of government. Determined healthcare, interject
yourself in retirement funds. This is an abomination. This is

(01:31:11):
socialism on steroids. This is the destruction of the American dream.
This is contrary to what the founders said. It runs
antithical to the Federalist papers and to common sense, and
is a disgrace. The fact that most Americans don't even
know what common sense is or Thomas Pain and don't
know what the Federal's papers are and the anti Federals
papers are and have never hit any of them is
a disgrace to this nation. We need to go back

(01:31:32):
to educating this illiterate population about our civics and our society.
I mean, when I come back from Tunisia in two
thousand and one, a year after the election, and people
like Bush stole the election. We do need still election,
We're all Supreme Court gave it to him. No, they didn't.
The US Supreme Court overruled the out of control rogue
Florida Supreme Court, which violated Florida's law and his constitution
by continually recounting votes. They had a deadline they failed

(01:31:55):
to meet under the Florida law. The Supreme Court was
called in to say they must adhere to their own law.
If you don't like to all, then change it. But
you should have changed it before the election. So people
a year later still saying Bush in the Supreme Court
still the election, and then people saying, well, but but
al Gore is the president. I said, why, well, he
got more votes. That doesn't matter. This is how ignorant
our electorate is. Much of it. It doesn't matter he

(01:32:16):
gets the most votes. It matters who adheres to the
system and achieves most votes. In electoral college, all but
two states, it's first past the post. So if you
go to California and you got fifty four electoral votes
and you get one million and one votes, the other
guy gets one. Man you get all fifty four votes,
he gets nine. But if you go to Maine or
to Nebraska, it's done on apportionment and that's their system.

(01:32:37):
That's how he do it. And people don't know this.
It's shocking, it's disgraceful. It's sad. No wonder this country
was in such jeopardy and peril before Donald Trump came back.
It's unbelievable how ignorant our society is. Well, I've lost
all my viewers, but too bad.

Speaker 1 (01:32:55):
You calling people ignorant. I guess they might not stick around.
I don't know, but I trust me, folks. He's not
uh he's not exactly putting that reflection on you, the listener,
but he's just saying in general, uh, yeah, they we
see it all the time, things that people do, and
it's kind of Like I was recently talking to somebody,
I see people saying, you know, for trucking, you know,

(01:33:15):
we need to see DL license, and but those are
veaders over there don't. So now the anger has turned
on the people on our reads because they don't have
to abide by the same qualifications as a truck driver does.
It's like, wait a minute, if you're gonna do this,
what you're gonna do is create regulations for that poor sap.
But it's not going to alleviate in your pain.

Speaker 5 (01:33:34):
You know. So John, by the same token, the long
cair guys that pull trailers with their ride lawn mowers
on the back and their yard may take with them,
I don't have special license. We should make them license.
And people who pull their boats down to the dock
and put it in like they should have specialize. I mean,
why do people think taking liberty is a solution everything. Look,
I'm not a libertarian, but I can certainly.

Speaker 1 (01:33:55):
Emphasize that's why we're in this position. Because people do
think that because they get upset because they're being oppressed, right,
so now they want the next guy to be oppressed.
They want this guy, you know, turn around and say, well,
if I have to take a drug test. Why isn't
he over there taking a drug test. It's like, come on, man.

Speaker 5 (01:34:12):
John, there are merits to government regulating controlling things for
the safety and the I mean, they're look at commercial
driver's license as someone not possessing. What makes sense to
me if commercial driver's license require you to be tested
in how to park those big rigs, how to operate
them in adverse conditions, how to drive them on inclines
and down mountains, how to use air brakes and retards

(01:34:34):
and all these things. If that's part of the qualification
for CDL, I'm in favor of it because a problem.

Speaker 1 (01:34:40):
They got training, right, but they didn't they didn't put
all this stuff in there. They trained a person in
two weeks that abides by federal regulations, and all of
a sudden they out there not knowing what they're doing
on the road. Okay, so when I regulate for safety
in the first place, well.

Speaker 5 (01:34:54):
But that should be there. If they're going to regulate,
that's what they should be concerned about, protecting.

Speaker 1 (01:34:57):
The public, you think, so yeah?

Speaker 5 (01:34:59):
So, I mean, okay, would you agree with me? The
things I just said are just common sense?

Speaker 6 (01:35:03):
Oh?

Speaker 1 (01:35:03):
I go, I go down to DC, and I thought
to people the Federal Motor Carriage Safety Administration. They don't
hear me saying, hey, you know what, give her of
those hasmat rules. We don't need hazmat rules, simple general things,
truck inspections. You should be inspecting your equipment every day,
all the time.

Speaker 5 (01:35:17):
Absolutely, do we do it. We do it. We do
it in the army. Every time we do a rest halt,
we get out and make sure everything is still tied down,
nothing's falling off. We check our lights, we check our brakes.
I mean, it's just common sense. When you're operating a
dangerous item like a heavy vehicle like a tank or
an artillery piece, or a truck or a semi. I mean,
these things are dangerous. People need to be and by

(01:35:39):
the same token, frankly, people should be checking their PAVs.
You know, I've only once in the past six years
had a safety what I would consider safety violation when
getting my car inspected. Why is that? Because I check
my lights. I check my turn signals at least every
couple weeks. I go out there at the minimum and
check them. And this time I missed one light because
the ball burnt out within the two weeks before I
went to get inspected, so I'll see I had a gig.

(01:36:00):
But that's the first time in six years. I guarantee
you many people have to get the cars inspected. You
probably have to replace headlights or turn signals, or get
the horn repaired, or replace their tires because they're not
maintaining their vehicles. This is a responsibility. And I don't
have a problem with the Comonwealth of Pennsylvania forcing me
to get my vehicle inspected every year. I did have
a problem with Maryland making me get the missions tests
because it was a joke. It was an absolute joke.

(01:36:20):
It was a waste of time. I used to have
to drive to Maryland get my missions tests into my registration.
If they want expected for safety, I wouldn't have a
problem with but the emissions was a joke. Pennsylvania also
has emissions, but it's part of the roadworth in it's
the vehicle, and I think that's fine because it's an
effort to protect society at large, and it is a
minimal step and it's not invasive in my view. When

(01:36:41):
the gover becomes invasive, that's the problem.

Speaker 1 (01:36:43):
People live busy lives and they don't think about these things.
They don't categorize these things and develop. You know, in
the old days, you used to have to check the
oil every day or every week in your car. You
check your tire pressure and stuff. People get out of
practice of that because things got improved over time. But
it's still you can run your car low on oil,
but if you're not keeping track of it, because you
can blow a seal or something, and people don't think

(01:37:04):
about that. Simple tricks. Man, you're pulling up to a building,
it's got a glass front, throwing your head lights, bright lights,
right turn, single left turn signal. You saw it all
happen right there. Back up to what next time you
do your break lights? You know, just dumb stuff like that.
It's nighttime. You can check all your lights sitting in
your car. Basically you see them all light up. If
they're not light to pull them one side. You might
get out and look good next time. But you know,

(01:37:24):
it's just simple tricks, things you can do while you're
in the vehicle, while you're driving the vehicle. But it's
not on people's minds. You know, they're more thinking about, Hey,
I can't wait to get that party. That's what I'm
gonna do. I'm gonna do a lot of danceing, a
lot of drinking, and have a lot of fun and
now give them one iota of the vehicle they're in.

Speaker 5 (01:37:43):
A vehicle is a deadly weapon. I treat my automobiles
and the way I drive is if it's a deadly weapon,
because it can kill people, and you don't have to
be going very fashion good twenty miles an hour and
kill somebody. I've been struck by motor vehicle in a
parking lot at about fifteen miles an hour. Fortunately I
was stepping forward and it hit my leg that was
going forward and just threw me off balance and spun
me around. I hit the ground, So I mean, if

(01:38:03):
i'd been planted, I might have had serious injury. But
I mean, you can kill someone at that speed, and
I don't think people realize that. They're just ignorant of
it or not paying attention to it. But a funny
thing happened to me John related to cars today. I'd
like to share this with you. It's embarrassing. So of
course my car has this you know, when you when
you touch the handle, it activates and unlocks the door. Okay,

(01:38:25):
so I got out of my car to wash it.
I hadn't washed my car and sometime and I've been gone.
It looks pretty nasty. So I went to you know,
the wand and the brush brushed it all off, and
then I locked the car and had a cay I pocket.
I came up to the edge of the car when
I was using the brush and my hand brushed up
again to handle and I didn't realize it, and I

(01:38:45):
came around, like why are the lights on? Because the
lights all come on. So I'm like, damn it, what's
going on here? So ignored it for a minute and
I'm like, was it on all the time? Did I
leave the headlights in the in the on? And said
the automatic position? Or what's going on here? And then
I kept going because you're in a timer. You know,
it's like four bucks for two minutes, you know, my
rushing or three minutes are now four minutes? Four minutes

(01:39:06):
is four bucks a buck a minute, So I'm rushing
getting soap on there. And then I switch over to
the light rints with more soap, and then I was
on the other side and the lights came on again.
I'm like, what's going on here? I was touching the
door handle, and then finally I realized that's what the
problem was. But you know, it's anyway, so he locked
the keys in the car doing it. Oh no, no,
Well the good news with that is it was we

(01:39:28):
walked well. Walking distance I could have walked home would
have taken me forty five minutes with my hip now,
but I could have walked home and got got the
spare key and got in there. But no, it's uh,
it's funny. I like these newer cars that you just
can't lock the car with the key inside. You know,
you can't walk you know, it's nice anyways, Yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:39:43):
No, my mind does that. I found out too. I
got a Lexus and for the wife. And recently I
realized because when I went to Florida, I went to
lock up the car, but every time I shoch a
or hand hold unlocked. Oh why is it doing that?
You know I want the car locked? Why does it
keep on locking? I thought something was wrong though realized
the secret.

Speaker 5 (01:39:59):
Is if you're eight or intentive about making sure your
doors are locked, and you've got one of those those
entry vehicles like that, the secrets go to the passenger's
door and try to pull in the handle, make sure
it's locked. If you go, you drop the driver's door,
you just unlock it every time.

Speaker 1 (01:40:13):
Yeah, yeah, I learned that long time recovery year recently
here last week, same thing, And yeah, I was throwing
me off talk come to my senses real as it
was the key fob in my pocket exactly.

Speaker 5 (01:40:25):
So, I mean, but you know, it's things change, you know, Hey,
have you seen what's going on with McDonald's. People are upset?
Oh seven seventy five for an egg McMuffin.

Speaker 1 (01:40:37):
Oh wow, yeah, oh wow, right, I go.

Speaker 5 (01:40:39):
That's insane now, but apparently that's the case a lot
of places in American If you want the meal, it's
like eight forty nine or something like that. That's I mean,
it's insane.

Speaker 1 (01:40:47):
So just the sandwich only is like almost eate bucks.
But yeah, for a couple bucks more, you get the
whole meal.

Speaker 5 (01:40:52):
So I saw where they did the math, and they
put it nominal dollars in other words, inflation adjusted dollars.
When the Big Mac was or that the egg mcmuff
was introduced with six three cents, those sixt or three
cents today would be I think they said was three
forty nine I think of something like that. So if
you were paying the same price, it would be three
dollars and forty nine cents, but it's more than two
hundred percent higher. We're being fleeced and gouged here. Ridiculous,

(01:41:15):
it's insane.

Speaker 1 (01:41:15):
Well we aren't a lot of that has to do
with COVID too. You realize a lot of these McDonald's
didn't get hit so hard as your local diners and
restaurants did, but a lot of people took a hit
for the couple of the years there during COVID, and
I think prices went up because they to survive after COVID. Yeah,
they got the government money and all that stuff, but
to survive after COVID, they had to increase rates higher

(01:41:38):
than just inflationary.

Speaker 5 (01:41:39):
Oh but that didn't cover it. I mean, first off,
that government money, of course, not whether I want to
be or not, I'm sort of in the hospitality business
because I'm a commander of VFW. We have a canteen,
which is a restaurant and bar, and that that destroyed us.
I mean we've been in the Virgin bankrucy multiple times
because the debt that piled up because of the lockdown
and not being allowed to have the place open, but
the mortgage and the bills kept coming, and the money

(01:42:01):
the government was supposed to reinburses for expenses for paying
employees during that time. We just got the second payment
from that this summer from twenty twenty. The fact that
we're still in business in miracle. I think what they
did is they held that money and hoped a lot
of places to go bankrupts. They never had to pay it.
But we managed to survive long enough to get that payment,

(01:42:22):
and it was not insignificant, So you know, I understand
where you're coming from. Yeah, the price of inputs is
just so high. The one thing that we've been able
to keep stagnant, unfortunately is wages well, although they've inflated
a little bit lately, but we have some control over that.
But then you just don't get reliable employees because people
want to make more money. Understandable because inflation is so high.
But the inputs are just ridiculous. We could charge for food,

(01:42:44):
I mean it's just insane. I mean I go to
the store and look and they want eight dollars for
a bag of chips. I mean, are you're high? That's
a dollars sixty nine. I'm not paying eight dollars.

Speaker 1 (01:42:50):
For Actually, I was in there looking at at some
things like bread. Yeah, I don't know what a love
for bread go. My wife does all the shopping, so
I have a clue. But I'm thinking to myself, can
you just make pread at home? I mean, can you
buy a mill and grind it down and get fresh
bed and get the nutrients out of it? And I'm
serting to think that's the way to go anymore. Why
are we buying bread that they've absorbed all the nutrients

(01:43:12):
out of it when they were processing the flour, And
now what you're getting is just a white loaf of
bread or whatever that just has no value.

Speaker 5 (01:43:19):
I appreciate where you're coming from, John, but even that
has become more challenging because the basic inputs like flour
and yeast. They've jacked the prices up on basic things
like that. You know, instead of buying you know, prepared
rice dinners like rice Aerroni or you know all the
other ones out there, why don't you buy rice? Well,
the price of rice soars up and down based on
commodity prices and can become quite price of just buying
a bag of plain rice. All the inputs become something.

(01:43:40):
So I mean, I mean, at some point, we're all
gonna have to have victory gardens to survive.

Speaker 1 (01:43:44):
A lot of people are going to that fact. A
couple of years ago, I remember the not Department, Help Department,
Vega culture whatever, wanted people to register their microgardens. Like
wait a minute, Like I would do that right.

Speaker 5 (01:43:59):
Now, these scumba. I mean, look, I have a drone
and they regulate drones and I wasn't happy about it
because I'm responsible drone user. I don't fly it over
people's homes and backyards and watch people in their bikinis
and look in their bathrooms, or fly it over airfields
or highways and things like that. Other people do. I don't.
I'm an adult. I've got common sense, so I don't
need to be regulated. But they decided to do it

(01:44:21):
because it was getting out of control. This is like
ten years ago, nine years ago. And I said, okay, fine,
I'm not a fan. But the reason I went and
register my drone is because it was free. They said
it wouldn't cost anything. It's free, just registered. We just
need to know so we know who's got the drones.
You have to put a lable on it, and you
have a registration number so that they can retrieve it
and find you if you misbehave. Okay, I can live
with that, But then when it came time to renew,

(01:44:41):
I had to pay. Screw you, I pay you. This
is just more money than just another way to fleece
me out of my heart. On an income, you, Bastadi,
already take more than enough of my money. In the
former wages, forty eight percent of my income goes to
pay taxes before I buy anything. I'm a pauper before
I even buy anything. They already take almost half my
income before I buy anything. And then I buy gasoline.

(01:45:02):
I have the second highest gasoline tax in the country,
in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvani or a commonwealth of Pennsylvania,
you know. And they've got sales tax and you've got
cell phone taxes and FCC taxes and telephone taxes and
taxes on top of taxes. It's just ridiculous. I mean,
And what do we get for this broken governance. We
don't even have a government's operating right now, you know,
And we get an idiot in Harrisburg who is a

(01:45:24):
serial violator of the law, and he was the Attorney
general not upholding the rule of law during the twenty
twenty election, facilitating the criminal activity it took place in
the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania in the twenty twenty election. That's
what we get for what we pay in taxes. You know,
it's insane. I mean, at some point, you know, the
colonists actually rebel for far less than this. What a
two percent tax was put on tea and they got

(01:45:46):
that out of shape. Imagine what they do today. If
they saw what was going on.

Speaker 1 (01:45:51):
March, many going they wasn't waste. That's the difference between
people today and people back then. As people back then
didn't waste any time. They had back well, and they
had grit, and they knew the value of time and
sitting on your hind quarters not getting stuff done was
not how they operated at all. They didn't have any
problem but a glove in somebody's face for an insult

(01:46:11):
and you know, demanding a duel. They were like, uh, yeah, no,
we're not playing games. Well, check meant something back then, you.

Speaker 5 (01:46:20):
Know it did. Indeed, Well check this out for a
run out of time. A New Jersey man is arrested
for camping in front of cathedral ahead of the Supreme
Court the United States Mass with hundreds of explosives. Yeah,
your Jersey man is being slapped with a hate crime charge.
A hate crime, how about it? You know, unlawful explosives.
Following his shocking arrests in DC, authorities with the Metropolitan
Police Department claimed the man identified his forty one year

(01:46:40):
old Lewis d Gary, not Dry but g R. I
was reportedly camped out in a green tent in front
of the cathedral Saint Matthew the Apostle in Washington, d C.
At five am on Sunday. As police worked to secure
the area for Red Mass, they request the man movi
his tent and situation immediately went sideways. You might want
to stay back and call the federalies, he allegedly told

(01:47:01):
an officer. I have explosives, he said. When officer with
the department's bomb squad approached the suspect, he said, do
you want me to throw one out? I'll test one
out in the street. I have one hundred plus of them.
No one will get hurt, he continued, There'll be a
hole the street. You'll just have to step back. I'll
take out that tree. Good Lord, several of your people
are going to die from one of these the According

(01:47:22):
to the affidavin, this guy had explosives. Upon searching the tip,
police reportedly locate a large cachet of him, made destructive devices,
and some writings that allegedly revealed his significant animosity towards
the Catholic Church, members of the Jewish faith. Members of
Supreme Court and Ice. Six to the current Supreme Court
justice as a Catholic and two are Jewish. The Court
has the sixty three conservative majority. The Cathedral of Saint

(01:47:44):
Matthew the Apostle is the mother church of the Catholic
Archdiocese of Washington. And this guy hates Christians, he hates Catholics,
he hates Jews, he hates Ice. Sounds to me like
another unhinged leftist.

Speaker 1 (01:47:58):
Sounds that way to me. I wonder if he's related
to Antifa.

Speaker 5 (01:48:03):
Well, he's related to stupidity, that's for sure. You know,
maybe he married his first cousins, married the first cousins. Wait,
we're right, we're coming full circle. Now back to the
issue in Tennessee.

Speaker 1 (01:48:18):
Oh yeah, no, that's that's comedians. Many they hit paid
when they do that, return back to the joke and
have the re reoccurring joke.

Speaker 5 (01:48:25):
Yeah, oh my goodness, marrying your cousin. I'm trying to
think if any of my cousins are hot enough to
even think about that. I got a lot of cousins
I should mention that, Oh my goodness, on both sides
of the family, maternal and fraturnal.

Speaker 1 (01:48:39):
There's a lot to choose from out there in the world.
I don't think I'd be concerned in myself with it.

Speaker 5 (01:48:44):
Well, look, it's fast and furious on the streets of
National Hampshire.

Speaker 4 (01:48:47):
He was getting on it, wasn't he.

Speaker 5 (01:48:49):
Yeah he was. Was that the rock anyway? Yeah, So
a lot of crazy stuff happened this weekend. Trump UH
had the Canadian Prime Minister in town, and they was
very cordial and congenial towards Mark Carney. But Carneie goes
back to Canada empty handed. The terriffs remain in place.

(01:49:10):
Canada's economy will continue to implode. Their unemployment now is
exceeding seven percent, and they're in a lot of trouble,
particularly in the mining, the forestry, and the automotive industries.
And you know what, the Canadians don't deserve it, but
the Canadian government deserves it.

Speaker 1 (01:49:24):
Yeah, you got that right. Canadians are good people, large
with Canadians. Always always loved my friends in Canada, and
I feel for them because they've had poor governance. And
we think we've had poor governance, they've had it worse.

Speaker 5 (01:49:38):
Yeah, you're right about that. I mean, you know, it's
just I mean, you know, going back to the truckers thing.
We haven't really talked about in a while, but you
mentioned earlier. The think about the truckers thing. It really
disturbed me is that when it was going down, I
tried to reach out and offer advice to those folks,
basically to tell them, you know, listen, guys, don't block
the roads driving to town. Have a rotation cycle like

(01:50:02):
the military does, red green, yellow cycles sleeping, preparing and going.
Have the trucks are twenty four hours a days, but
only a small portion of your force. And you had
the right to drive through town. It wasn't blocked to
those trucks, but you can't block traffic. And that's where
they got in trouble because they were they were impeding traffic,
and then they used the full force of the state
to go after them.

Speaker 1 (01:50:19):
But they just about the US people's convoy or Canadian.

Speaker 5 (01:50:22):
No, it's on the Canadian convoy in Ottawa. They got
when they got to Ottawa. When they got to Ottawa,
they just parked the trucks in the street and caused chaos.
They should have just drove around twenty four hours a
day around you know, that central block and pissed off
the authorities. That was legal. It's it's not an area
that's restricted to weight tonage your vehicles. They could drive there.
But the problem is that they parked, and when they parked,
that just set them up as targets for the government.

(01:50:44):
It just wasn't very well thought out in my view.
And I said so as it unfolded the time, it's
this isn't Monday morning quarterbacking. I said so at the
time that they should that they should you know, they
should not do that.

Speaker 1 (01:50:53):
So anyway, well, you're right. We strategized that same sort
of idea in twenty seventeen. We had the Operation in
Black and Blue event in DC, and we were talking
about future events because we parked on the streets there.
We weren't peeding traffic, just parked in parking places.

Speaker 5 (01:51:07):
Right, and at that time you were allowed to do that.
But didn't they try to move to ban trucks from
parking on the mall.

Speaker 1 (01:51:13):
Uh No, actually they go there every year during October
this year, but they but they're permitted, they get permits
to do it every year. But we just rolled in
and did it. And uh but we were talking about
future events and stuff where if we want to slow
things down and grab it, you know, grab attention. That's
basically what you do these things for. You're not doing
these things because you're trying to make a demand on government, right, terrorists,

(01:51:35):
maic demand. You're trying to get your grievances addressed, and
and and we're running out of time here.

Speaker 5 (01:51:41):
Yeah, we're almost at the top of the hour. So
we'll see people next week. Why don't you take us out.

Speaker 1 (01:51:45):
John, Actually, let's see, we were that close just about. Yeah,
we have about you know, just a few minutes here.
So yeah, anyway, ladies and gentlemen, we're running to the
top of the hour here. Well, we thank everybody for
listening tonight. We hope we got something out of it.
As always, you know, catch just next week, same time,
same place. We're just a little confused here because we

(01:52:06):
don't have any octro music like we usually do. I'm
not putting anything on anybody. Johnny does always does a
good job here and uh never fails. But I didn't
communicate with him that we were going to be back
in the studio this week, so we're just kind of
playing around the time here. So we got about twenty seconds.

Speaker 5 (01:52:23):
We're trying to count the clockdown. Well, folks, next week,
we'll talk more about what's going on with the lockdown,
no doubt. Trump also had a large number of his
nominees approved by the Senate today, and maybe we'll discuss
that next week if more of nominees come up, because
a lot of people have yet to be confirmed by
the Senate, but many were confirmed today. So there you go, folks.
We'll see you next week right here on the Commons
Sesskin Service on WSMN for Todd, John and myself. God

(01:52:44):
bless them. Thank you. Have a good night, fo
