The Race For The White House Remains Tight Ahead Of Debate

Hy and Christopher tackle the upcoming presidential debate and an election that is, as Karl Rove calls it, “tight as a tick.”

We talk about the fact that neither of the major presidential candidates even remotely care about looming deficits, and the Libertarian candidate Chase Oliver seems to be the only one talking about how government spending triggers inflation. We also ask whether pro-life conservatives, particularly in western Pennsylvania, will stay home amidst Donald Trump’s flip-flops on the Florida abortion rights election? That alone could swing the election.

Speaking of flip-flops, we talk about Kamala Harris’ reversals on economic policy, fracking, and particularly the Biden tax increase proposals. Harris wishes to hike capital gains tax to 33% rather than 44%— as Biden proposed. Is that smaller tax increase enough to calm centrist voters, worried that tax increases could tank the economy. In other words, can a smaller tax jump allay enough of the financial fears of suburban swing voters that they will feel comfortable casting their ballots for the Democrats?

Finally, we talk about the legacy of Denise Villere Schimek, philanthropist, businesswoman, and noted violinist & orchestra conductor.   Her funeral is Wednesday, September 11, at noon at Lake Lawn Funeral Home, 5100 Pontchartrain Blvd.

Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:01):
Battles, the politicians, the dressed, the digitators and magicians first
to see the money they did, don't. There's nothing to
feel the holes while there are filling their pockets. That
homes the politicians, the mountain down the road. Everybody's for

(00:24):
no moment, corruption and its function, It's gone. A date
divide is even.

Speaker 2 (00:33):
Tuesday, September tenth, eight weeks to election day, Donald Trump
and Kamala Harris face off for a presidential debate, one
with microphone silence when they're not talking, but also one
where all of their ideas from economics to social policy
will be on display for ninety minutes, the first of
two scheduled debates between the presidential candidates and one for

(00:55):
the VP candidate. We're talking about how close this race
is and how everybody's going, including some pro life forces
in Louisiana who are mad at Donald Trump and some
centrists who are concerned about Kamala Harris and how she
has trimmed her economic sales to try to meet them.
Both economic policies came out last week, and we'll talk
about that and habital play with the polls in an

(01:16):
election that Karrov calls as tight as a.

Speaker 3 (01:19):
Tick, and God bless you all out there, and don't
let them tick sketch. You are now listening to the founders,
show the voice of the founding Fathers. You're Founding Fathers
coming to you deep within the bowels of those mystic
and cryptic alligator swamps of the Big Easy, that old
Crescent City, New Orleans, Louisiana, and high up on top

(01:43):
of that old liberty cypress tree draped in Spanish moss
way out on the Eagles Branch is none other. Then
you have s Bengary, Baba of the Republic Chaplain Hi McHenry.

Speaker 2 (01:54):
With Christopher Tidmore, your roving reporter, resident radical moderate and
associate editor of the Louisiana Weekly news paper at Louisiana Weekly,
Dot Nut and Hi, if it is possible to have
an election closer than this, I cannot imagine.

Speaker 3 (02:07):
It close close, Oh my goodness.

Speaker 2 (02:10):
The fact of the matter is, Folks, Cliffhanger, well, only
one pole Rasmussen has put Trump ahead in the national polls.
All the others put basically Harris between one and two
points ahead. For the most part. The fact of the
matter is in the battleground states, it is as close
as is humanly possible. And one of the things that

(02:32):
they're going to be fighting for is going to be,
of course, the state of Pennsylvania and the state of
North Carolina and the state of Georgia. Why have you
seen Harris going across Georgia and North Carolina. Why have
you seen Trump lately going across Pennsylvania, And he's trying
to make it up into Michigan elsewhere. It's all about
trying to swing the battlegrounds. We are learning a few things.

(02:54):
One is that JD. Vance did not play well nationally,
but he played pretty well western Pennsylvania. As some of
you know, and I mentioned, I was in Pittsburgh a
couple of weeks ago, and I actually went around in
areas that were historically Democratic territories, and Vance was playing
very well in what is easily the most important swing

(03:15):
area of the country at the Appalachian and Alleghany Mountain
areas of Pennsylvania. And while the Union vote still is
pushing for Harris in those areas, fracking becomes one of
the major issues. You've seen Harris in the last few
weeks back off on the anti fracking. Remember she ran
for president wanting to banfracking. They've been sort of there's

(03:38):
been a lot of talk about Trump changing on abortion. Well,
she unfracking, she said, she's clarified, we'll call that, and
saying I only oppose it on federal lands, not private lands.

Speaker 3 (03:48):
Christophery. She not just hesitating. She is doing a big
one eighty to try to win this election.

Speaker 2 (03:54):
Well, and I will say that from economic policy, you're
seeing it. Here's another one, Eddie. So she's backed off
on a lot of the Biden economic policy. So for
those that were watching, Biden wanted to charge a capital
gains tax on unrealized capital gains above five million dollars.
That was his economic proposal, and he wanted to charge

(04:15):
that at thirty nine point eight percent, basically the top
possible max, with a five percent differential on that. So
it'd be about forty four to forty five percent on
unrealized capital gains. What does that mean? That means, you know,
even if you hadn't sold the stock, you still had
to pay the gain, even if you later would sell
the stock and it would come in lower. The problem.

(04:38):
It cites a real problem that exists in America. Billionaires
don't pay taxes. Why don't billionaires pay taxes. It's a
very simple scam, and it's it's fair. It's it's that.

Speaker 3 (04:46):
They have offshort trusts. They have the best law as
money can buy.

Speaker 2 (04:50):
That's why no, no, no, it's actually simpler than that
high because million billionaires and multi multi millionaires are paid
in stock. They're not paid salaries.

Speaker 3 (05:00):
That's one of the many tricks.

Speaker 2 (05:01):
Yes, this is how the trick works. I'm explaining to people.
You're paid in stock. You keep your stock, you don't
sell your stock. You borrow against your stock. You get
a one percent loan from a bank because you know
it's guaranteed. You're just basically borring it. You keep your
stock in place until you die, and you live off
the barring. That's how basically billionaires don't pay taxes, and then.

Speaker 3 (05:25):
You have insurance advantages they use also well, I.

Speaker 2 (05:29):
Mean that's an old statement that one thing you should
always do is take out life insurance policies on your
children when they're born, because that will be term life.
They could pay for their education full life. That pays
for their children's education and things big aires steel, so
they make certain choices. But the fact of the matter
is one of the things that Biden wanted to do
was kind of fight that by realizing it, it has

(05:51):
major economic implications. For example, if I own a farm
and the value the land is higher than what I
get it, I'd have to pay the increase in the
value land. And there's there's various implications on this, but
for lack of a better term, Kamala Harris backed off
on it. Her economic proposal that came out a week
ago does not include unrealized capital gains, and she wants

(06:13):
to increase the capital gains tax from twenty three percent
to twenty eight percent, which is essentially what it was
in the nineteen at the end of the night, at
the end of the Reagan administration. It's a much it's
sort of a it's a pro business appeal because the
other part there's a few other pro business appeals, because
there's one part of her pro proposal that's not a
pro business propeal, and that's of course waging price controls

(06:35):
or mostly price controls. And so you had, at the
same time, Trump on Thursday come out with his economic proposals,
and Trump's economic proposals are essentially what you'd expect, extending
the tax cuts and particularly taking what's called at what
he called an acts to regulation. He wants to put

(06:56):
Elon Musk and part in charge of a new Department
of Economic Competitiveness.

Speaker 3 (07:01):
That'd be something Christopher Well.

Speaker 2 (07:03):
The question I get in all of this is, you
know what neither side is talking about high what deficits?

Speaker 3 (07:10):
Oh yeah, you're right, that's right.

Speaker 2 (07:12):
Not Harris, not Trump, nobody. The only difference between the
two of them and spending money is that Trump is
not going to raise taxes and Harris will raise taxes.
But other than that, they both want to spend about
five trillion dollars. They want to spend it in slightly
different things, but they really don't care if we have
about balancing the budget. They don't care about what the
impact that hasn't And for guys like me who used
to believe the Republican Party stood up a fiscal responsibility,

(07:35):
I'm frustrated for Democrats who in the Clinton years actually
cared about this sort of thing. On Larry Summers, it's
become utterly absurd that when we have a debt limit
in the United States of over one hundred percent of
our gross domestic product of everything goods and service with
prous in the year and we're still borrowing two to
three trillion a year.

Speaker 3 (07:55):
You're right, Christopher. But there's a reason for this. I
know because I worked with a UH, a fellow who
was a broker for big, big, the biggest banking deals going,
and that's uh. I did this in the nineties. And
that's when when bank the big only the biggest banks,
and their European and one American, the Fed basically like

(08:15):
go to their accunt books and just put in some
more another, you know, one hundred billion or whatever they
need for the day. It's amazing how they get to
spend money with little to no accountability. That's why they're
not worried about this. What I'll see about Trump's plan too,
is to me, it's in many ways it's a replica
of Reagan's and Kennedy's and uh and they were very successful.

Speaker 2 (08:34):
So there's one major difference. Reagan actually cared about cutting
the size of government. Trump doesn't. No, that's very fair.

Speaker 3 (08:41):
No, he had a wonderful plan to like every new
person that was hired, they were going to be released
and get you know, retiring or firing or whatever two people.
That was his plan when he came in, when he
was a president before.

Speaker 2 (08:53):
It was called the Greates Commission Report. Yeah, that was
his plan, and for the first three years they had
a tradious amount of success. Then it wasn't a sixthsful.
But the fact of the matter is, I'm talking that
was Reagan's plan. Trump Trump ended up going into office
and he freely said, Look, you can make a lot
of defenses of Trump on economic policy, cut taxes, and
cut regulation. The offense you can't make is that he

(09:16):
cared about cutting government spending in the cost of company.
He doesn't. He himself has set it high. He does
not believe that borring money right now is that it
is a negative thing for the economy. And I'm gonna
be the first one to say it. Trump borrowd a
huge amount of money. He did it before COVID, and
then he did it during COVID, and then Biden did
it and doubled down it after COVID. And the fact

(09:39):
of the matter is, we have two parties that spend
that make that. I would call him spending like drunken sailors,
except that's an insult to drunken salors.

Speaker 3 (09:47):
No, a drunken navy, not sailors.

Speaker 2 (09:49):
Took a Navy a drunken ocean. It's just the point
being that we don't care about it now. Of course,
each side is getting their own flack. Of course, Tamala
Harris right now is getting a lot of flak from
Palestinian advocates of not being strong enough on Israel going
after the Palestinians, you know, and I mean there's a

(10:09):
part of me, I'll be honest with you. I can't
defend her in this. When the people in Gaza, you
know where those hostages in Gaza were executed about an
hour before the Israeli defense forces found them. It's just insane.
But on the left this is a major issue, so
much so that the British labor government has actually decided
to stop export licenses for weapons to Israel over this.

(10:32):
The British Foreign Secretary David Lammy is doing this. So
on the left there's a lot of calls to the
Biden administration do the same. The right, Trump's been having
his problems, and his problems have been with a lot
of pro life forces led by a Louisianian who has
been a guest on our show several times. And that's
of course Tony Perkins, head of the Family Research Council,
And for disclosure purposes, Tony is my old boss. I

(10:55):
used to work for him. He's a good friend. And
Tony's arguably if there is a head of pro life forces,
and there are many, there are many, many people who
are you know, leaders of the pro life movement. But
if there's one person who encapsulates the pro life forces,
I think and I both agree, it's the head of
the Family Research Council on Tony.

Speaker 3 (11:12):
Perk right right. And there's also a great one with
a Catholic, you know, rightful life.

Speaker 2 (11:16):
I think you know, I mean. But my point being,
if Tony Perkins is criticizing Trump, it's not a light thing.
And the reason why the criticisms are coming through is
Donald Trump has a problem, and it's he's being he's
practicing smart politics only so far as it doesn't rip
apart the Republican coalition, but it's it also demonstrates he's

(11:36):
never particularly been a pro life person. He was, He's
gone from pro choice to pro life, and what it
was was Donald Trump is a Florida resident. He's a
citizen of Florida. There is a ballot measure on the
ballot to legalize abortion in Florida basically codify Roe v. Wade.
Trump came out publicly and said he would vote for it,

(11:57):
and suddenly all hell broke loose and he had to backtrack.
Twenty four No, he said it, he said. His exact
words were, he said, I do plan on voting art.
It's not enough weeks. Six weeks is not enough weeks,
which is the current law on Florida. It's a six
week it's not augh weeks. Twenty four hours later, he
came back and he released a statement through truth Social

(12:18):
his Twitter like thing, that basically said, no, I'm going
to vote against it because it doesn't have late term bands.
So he basically flip flopped his position inside of a
twenty four hour period.

Speaker 3 (12:28):
But we got a problem here. Trump was becoming like
most politicians Kamala and all the rest, I'm Biden and Obama.
He's done his first flip flop. This is not good.
I mean, what's her name? Kamala lives by the flip flop.
She's a big base. She's gonna go down as a
flip flop queen of all times.

Speaker 2 (12:47):
Well, I mean I will agree with you. There, both
sides of flip flop. And on a lot of different stuff.
But the point I'm getting at the other thing he
came in was.

Speaker 3 (12:54):
IVY he's learning politics.

Speaker 2 (12:56):
He's not learning politics and politics right, you.

Speaker 3 (12:59):
Know, he just started. Hey first political position was the president.

Speaker 2 (13:03):
The point being that he also wanted to mandate IVF.
Now this got him in trouble on two different wings
of the Republican Party because ardent pro lifers actually don't
support IVF because you usually have to dispense with the
fertilized ovums that are not their And but it is,
of course wildly, wildly in ventual fertilization is wildly popular

(13:25):
across the country. In point of disclosure, you know, it's
something I've had to do in my life, and you
know it's it's given a lot of hope to a
lot of couples. Trump knows this is a big issue,
so he doesn't He needs to show that he's gonna
keep it legal. And nobody believed him. And in Trump's
and Trump's fair, he hasn't flip flopped on this. He's
supported in vitul fertilization all the way through consistently. I'm

(13:47):
critical Donald Trump, but he's never changed his position on this.
It's always been this way. The rest of the Republican
Party has flip flopped on this, not Donald Trump, ironically enough,
and so he came out and he said, I want
to mandate insurance to pay for IVF, and I want
the government to pay for it, at which point every
economic conservative says just stopped and looked in horror, because

(14:08):
this would drive up insurance rates rather drastically. One IVF
treatment effectively is one hundred thousand dollars, and so it
would drive up insurance costs as an unfunded mandate. And
then if the government's paying for it for Medicaid and
you know, obviously not Medicare, but Medicaid and Obamacare, it

(14:30):
suddenly becomes incredibly expensive. So you saw Lindsey Graham trying
to tap dance around this on the Sunday Morning Show, saying, well,
maybe if we did a tax credit like for this,
or a fundable tax, there's something else. But the fact
is he kind of dropped this on a lot of
Republicans and the pro life forces. When they heard that,

(14:51):
they didn't care but the money. They didn't care how
much it costs. It's never been a motivation of Christian conservatives.
They cared about the fact that ardent lifers believe that
this procedure is one step before abortion because you're throwing
away fertilized ovums. And they got doubly mad at Trump.
So here's one of the questions, and I'm paris a
question on this point to you. High is Trump in

(15:14):
trouble of pro lifers in key states like Pennsylvania where
there's a huge pro life movement, and it's remember that
he lost that state by ten thousand votes. I'm not
going to relaviate the deduction which go back. It only
takes a small number of people staying home for Donald
Trump to lose Pennsylvania. We both agree with that. Is
this enough? And I've watched this for pro lifers to

(15:35):
stay home. And the reason I'm thinking this is Bob
Dole had an otherwise perfect pro life record, but he
supported stem cell research. And I watched pro life forces
stay home because they wouldn't vote for Donald Trump against
against Bill Clinton. I mean, my god, talk about a
flip flopper.

Speaker 3 (15:54):
Now you meant the Bob Dole So.

Speaker 2 (15:58):
I watched in nineteen ninety six, pro life war is
one of the reasons Woody Jenkins lost, not the only reason,
but one of the main reasons is there were pro
lifers who wanted to go to the polls for Jenkins,
but they really were not enthusiastic about Dole. So Jenkins
in ninety ninety six the ultimate pro life candidate, the
author of Louisiana's Abortion Band. Likely one of the reasons

(16:22):
he lost the election is he outpaced Bill Clinton by
one hundred and eighty six thousand votes for remurer. Louisiana used
to be a swing state, but Clinton won it. But
the five thousand, seven hundred and eight votes he lost
by were pro lifers in Louisiana who didn't go to
the polls because they didn't not because they didn't like
Woody Jenkins, they didn't like Bob Dole. Now imagine if
this scenario happens to Trump. You're so close, you're within inches.

(16:45):
You're the state of pennsil The only way Trump can
win if he doesn't win Arizona, Nevada. It's possible, but unlikely.
He's gonna win Arizona, Nevada, It's possible but unlikely, but
he does win Georgia and North Carolina. Because I'm gonna
say the flip side of this It's possible Kamala Harris
could win Georgia North Carolina, but at this point unlikely.
Trump wins Pennsylvania. That's two hundred and seventy electoral votes

(17:07):
if he gets the first the second Congression district could
mean he does it with the states period, but he
could just as easily lose it because social conservatives are
pissed at him about his abortion stand. And here's the irony.
He's in a no win scenario because what Donald Trump
is essentially saying is, you know, we should keep this too.
He said it essentially, Daldrump said it. He says twelve

(17:27):
weeks is about a good balance, and it should be
done on the state level, which is basically where most
of the American people are, to be honest, but it's
not where the pro life community.

Speaker 3 (17:35):
Is, right. I think that's where why he's talking about
voting in Florida, because he thinks it should be in
this state on the state level. And I agree with that.
I think that's the proper constitution and position. And by
the way, Chris, for you saying that there were only
two parties that and neither one arm are dealing with
the deficit. But there's a third party. It's doing a
great job and it's always fought the deficit. I'm talking

(17:56):
about the Libertarian Party. And he said all politicians came on.
There's except there. I know of it at least two,
and that's the Paul family, Ron and you know Ran
and Ron Paul. They're great on fighting the deficit and
standing strong and no matter what the price they fight,
they get an in, they fight it and I'm with
them on that.

Speaker 2 (18:18):
I've told people this. I'm voting for Chase Oliver, who
is the Libertarian presidential candidate. Most of you've never heard
of him. Why because he supports lower taxes and smaller
government period end of discussion. And he actually is closest
of all the candidates. He's not perfect to what it is,
but I also know that I will vote for him,
and I can probably count on both hands and toes

(18:38):
the number of people I know who will vote for him.
So it doesn't really matter.

Speaker 3 (18:41):
Right, It's just not right. I believe when you vote,
you vote for the if you will the left serve
two evils or the better of the two goods, if
that's possible. Uh, That's how I vote. And even if
the candidate's not doing anything I wanted to want them
to do. I'm still going to vote because you got
to go for the best one you can get and
who has the best chance. I mean, I may love

(19:03):
what the Libertarians doing, they're not gonna win. I can't.
I can't throw my vote away from him on them,
you know, all of them, they're great admire uh and
and and you know they're there a few other spiritual
granddaddy was Thomas Jefferson, who also have the greatest respect for.
And I love the polls and everything else, but I
can't vote for arm Just throw a vote. Look, we

(19:24):
got to get Trump in. It's this is a desperate battle.
And if he doesn't, I don't know how much longer
the Republic will stand. This is literally like uh, Julius
Caesar uh taken over Rome and and the whole the
whole Republic is going to go down the toilet and uh.
And you know the sad thing is the people who
were fighting for the Republic helped create the empire because

(19:45):
of their own stupidity by killing Caesar. They should have
just let the guy die on natural death and they
could have gone back to the Republic that forced them
Rome into an empire, which was the end of Rome,
the beginning of the end of Rome.

Speaker 2 (19:58):
I would point out, you know, anyway we can go
whether who's the caesar in the situation, Trump, Org Harris,
but I but but.

Speaker 3 (20:05):
It wasn't using that to make one of them be
a caesar.

Speaker 2 (20:09):
But here's the question I got. You are heavily connected
to the pro life community. You have spent your life
a pro auDA folks.

Speaker 3 (20:17):
I was one of the original pro life people before
Roe versus Wade, Like about two years before that, I
made a speech at the Student Government Association. I represented
the Greeks and the Hippies went in there, the radicals
when they were screaming in Howland, there's no chance. I
had a referendum to push abortion. And I didn't know
what I was gonna do that. Well, just like cutting
the appendix out and no big deal. What And then

(20:37):
I started thinking about it. I started praying about I
started talking to preachers and whatnot. I found out that
most of the preachers were on the wrong side too.
They didn't know anything about it. So I did my
own homework and I prayed, and I finally came up
with a conclusion. When does life start, well, I had
my best understanding and it still is to this day.
It starts at conception, when the littles I got. It's

(20:59):
called as ie goo. The want you know, the egg
is fertilized and there's a flash of light. We didn't
know that back then, a tremendous indication of a supernatural
beginning of a human life. And so I was convinced
at that point that that and so you had to
fight for that, and that's what I did. I made
a speech and Christopher I won against overwhelming hon They
heard my talk on it, and I'm telling the whole

(21:21):
crowd went silent, and the resolution did not pass.

Speaker 2 (21:24):
Nobody questions your pro life crudentials. You went on to
being pro life rallies in March. Is my point. And look,
in my viewpoint of this is, you know, I'm like
whether another Americans say, I think it's where brainwave activity starts.
So it's somewhere between twelve and fifteen weeks. But either way,
the point is Trump can only win if every pro
life activist will come out and vote.

Speaker 3 (21:47):
Roe v.

Speaker 2 (21:47):
Wade's no longer an issue. It's gone. That was a
motivating factor. So what happens with pro lifers now is
do we want to vote for somebody who is absolutely
not in our agenda? And he isn't he is not,
he is he will he will veto a national fifteen
week band, which you and I both agree on that
it should happen, but he would veto it because he
doesn't want to take it out of state. My point is,

(22:09):
and this is what I'm going to ask you a
very specific question, and it's a very important one from
the supporters of Trump, what do you have to say
to pro lifers who, basically you've watched this happen, they
make the perfect the enemy of the good, and they
stay home. What do you And the fact is that.

Speaker 3 (22:25):
You're saying, you've got to go with the better of
the two good are the less evil of the two evils.
That's how you got to plan your vote. And if
you don't do that, you're gonna let the world end
up helping maybe the worst one get in.

Speaker 2 (22:40):
And I'm going to tell you what I'm seeing right
now in Pennsylvania. Trump can win the state, but if
he if the church communities in western Pennsylvania even slightly
go down, I've never seen a situation where every single
poll poll after poll after poll after poll come up
with exactly the same numbers on both sides. It is
literally going to come down to two twenty five people.

(23:00):
Is that close in a state with sixteen electoral votes.

Speaker 3 (23:03):
Voters think about it like this, and I hope everybody
here is going to vote. Think about it like this,
that you could have really turned something and made a
huge difference if you had followed the advice I've just
given you. And yet you decide I'm going to stay home.
I'm not going to do anything. Okay, now you're letting
the bad guys. You're helping the bad guys. When when
you do that, please don't do that on this election

(23:27):
if you're not perfectly lying. Yea. And I've told people this.
They can't find the perfect church. They're going to this church,
that church. I'm a preacher. I'm trying to help them
find the perfect church. And as I hear them talk,
I finally realize, you know what, I don't think you
better whatever church you go to, if you think it's
a perfect church, please don't join it, because you'll destroy it.
It will no longer be the perfect church. Nobody's perfect.

(23:49):
Our candidates aren't perfect. You're not perfect. I'm not perfect.
You go for the best one or the better one
you can find, and pray and hope that it all
works out. That's the only really best thing. It's the
best way to handle how you're going to vote and
how you make decisions. Do the Ben Franklin close on
it and get the best one, you know, the Ben
Franklin closes. You put both people or whoever it is

(24:10):
three people, and you put down on the various issues,
and then you put down how they are, how close
they are to what you want, and then you go
with the one that's the closest to you. It may
not be perfectly close to you. That's okay, Go with
the one who's the better of the two, or the
best of the three or whatever.

Speaker 2 (24:27):
On that note, we got to go the best of
the end of the segment because we got to take
a quick commercial break. When we come back, we're going
to turn to some developments here in Louisiana. One other
thought about the federal elections. But ladies and gentlemen, we're
going to give you afterwards on the elections and debates
that is, of course happening on Tuesday. The lineup and
will have the same impact that Trump's last debate did

(24:50):
against Biden. I will tell you, by the way, if
Trump loses this election, high I want to get your
take on this. You know what historians will say Trump
who made the greatest tactical mistake in history by having
a debate which he overwhelmingly won, knocking Biden out, Because
if he hadn't and he insisted on that debate, not Biden.
If he had done that, Biden would be the one

(25:11):
he's debating and this election would already be over.

Speaker 3 (25:13):
I agree with you, Christoph, there's no question byt it was. Yeah.
I hope he didn't shoot himself on the foot. One
last thing about this thing about going for the better one.
In Louisiana, we had a big abortion case that came along.
We could have won it, but it wasn't perfect the
way that you know, the legislation was written, and so
many of these perfectionists didn't go and we would have

(25:33):
ended abors in Louisiana except for a few exceptions. They
wouldn't go with it, and so all those babies now
with slaughter that could have been saved. Remember this, folks,
don't play around with us. This is very, very serious,
thank you.

Speaker 2 (25:46):
And one other view about the one group that Trump
is winning overwhelming men and women, and it may surprise
you what that group is back after this. Hi, how
would you like to go to Rome without ever leaving
New Orleans?

Tedmore and Chaplin haymik Erian Folks. By the way, our website,
the Founder's show is still good. We haven't had a
problem with that. And bear with me on my other
one that Lamb it will be going soon.

Speaker 2 (31:46):
And I got it. I have to bring up something
kind of funny on the election, and it's just this
is this is sort of amusing to me. Every demographic
across the board, Donald Trump slightly loses to Kamala Harris,
whether it's you know Gen Alpha that just getting the
right to vote, Gen Z, millenniums just slightly, you know,

(32:11):
it's kind of tied. And also baby boomers, your generation,
Donald Trump loses. There's only one generation, Donald Trump overwhelmingly
wins Gen X. Now it's funny because you know, I
remember the days of friends and all this. We were
the young kind of didn't believe in anything, and yet
we are the only ones that are in the entire thing,

(32:33):
which considering that we thought most Baby Boomers were stupid
hippies that wanted to save the world and most millennials
are totally other things. And we just want to say ourselves,
I don't support Donald Trump, but I can kind of
get the psychology that a Gen X er is going
to do the opposite of what everybody else does and
frankly call ourselves saying, so okay, I kind of get that,
And the irony of the whole situation is what is

(32:54):
Kamala Harris a member of Generation X of Christopher.

Speaker 3 (32:58):
Y'all were also known as the Busters.

Speaker 2 (32:59):
Right Babybusters, The beginning of Gen X can be called that,
but it's technically Gen X is everyone who was born
between nineteen sixty four and seventy four, So we our
parents were maybe the very beginning of the baby boom
right after the war, but mostly they are the Inner
War generation. So our parents were too young to do

(33:24):
the war and basically might some of them, the earliest
might have made Korea, but basically came of age before
Vietnam came of fate. So they were kind of the
inter our generation, and there were a relatively small population.
They're the Depression era. They were born from then, and
so we're a comparatively small generation. They're huge number of
baby boomers. Baby Boomer's kids are the Millennials, and so

(33:46):
there's a huge number of millennials. We are the generation
of latchkey kids, the generation actors. Millennials are the ones
who got participation trophies. We didn't get participation in trophies.
We were given a key and you said show up
at home, we'll be back in four hours. It's a
little bit different. So we had a slightly more cynical
view of the world. Then you know, hey, it's so
good that you tried. It's okay. If you were last place,

(34:07):
you gave it your all. Generation X parents would be like,
and this is how we the gen alphas are our kids.
Gen Z really and he will come out and say,
this is how we talk baby booms talk to millennials.
You tried so hard. That's all that matters. You tried
so hard. This is how Gen X tarts to his kids. Well,
it will never be as good for you as it

(34:28):
was for me. And if you don't work twice as
hard as everybody around, you're gonna fail. We are the
exact opposite of you, crazy baby boomers. You were hippies.
I mean not you personally, but your generation ours were
the opposite. You want to save the world. We just
want to save ourselves.

Speaker 3 (34:43):
Interesting, Chris, all these generations, bo I tell you it
has an effect on society. It's very interesting. Fascinating to
see how each group has gone and things were speeding
up because everything's speeding up, so we're having generations and
how tighter to you know, tighter together. Let's say, you know,
one hundred years a couple hind year years ago, it
might take one hundred years for a generation to change.
Not now. It's all happening quite quickly. So we'll see

(35:06):
how all this's going to go. It's gonna be interesting
to see how those polls come after the debate. I'm
thinking that Trump is going to move radically up. She's
still just ending the honeymoon period that a new candidate
goes through, and so of course that's making our polls
look better. But that's that's far from being what's really
going to happen with these polls. So time will tell
where we're going to go with all this. Christopher, let's

(35:28):
get on the next topic.

Speaker 2 (35:29):
You well, and I want to move a little bit
because we can we forget about something. Well, this is
not you know, some states are all going to the elections.
We're not. But we actually our most important elections are
the public service elections, and folks, for those haven't met us,
the public service. Eric's come out of the Public Service
Commissioner from the New Orleans metro area. You know, a Republican.

(35:51):
He's he's going to be out of office. He's gonna
run for probably for the US Senate in another couple
of years. The Public Service commission in Baton Rouge. Why
am I saying this because here's the facts. Who elect
presidents important for our national security, but it really doesn't
impact your life. You know what impacts your life more
who's your city councilman, who's the one who elects your

(36:12):
police chief? And most importantly, who's the person responsible for
regulating your electrical and gas prices? Because that's kind of
what comes through and that's what a Public Service commissioner does.
And we're going to have some of the Public Service
commission members on the on the election, the different races
that are going on. There's there's several other area races
that are going on the on the north shore of

(36:34):
the course. There are inches away from the recall for
the coroner. These a small elections, and so that's when
I tell people they are like, I don't care about
this presidential race. The fact of the matter is that
the you know who the bell tolls it tolls for
those that actually have to pay their bills each and
every day, and so we're going to cover that a
little bit.

Speaker 3 (36:54):
But interesting point here, folks. Do you know who the
most powerful person in America is? And most people don't
realize it's according to law and the way that our
governments for the great checks and balances, our finding fathers
set up every which way, not just the three branches,
but state and federal, local, all that. Who's the most
powerful person in the entire spectrum of politics. I'll tell

(37:15):
you right now. It's the local sheriff. He has more
power than anybody. You better watch that sheriff. And when
you get a new sheriff, there's a new sheriff in town,
then you better really watch him.

Speaker 2 (37:26):
There's no criticism him. Joe Lopinto is an old friend
of mine. He's an incredible sheriff. He has got more
power than the president does. In Jefferson Parish, he collects
all the taxes, all the police officers work for him.
There is no civil surface. It is and uses it
quite well. I mean that's not a personal but it
is an observation that we sometimes this is what has

(37:48):
been wrong with twenty four hour media because people used
to understand this, and I don't mean like ancient history.
I mean as late as the nineteen eighties, people understood
that what happens close to you is actually more important
to some extent, at least on your day to day
lives than what happens all the way in Washington. But
when you have twenty four hour news cycles that they're

(38:10):
national news cycles that are obsessed, they're not going to
talk about local races, and so it's dependent on people
like us to do so. But Hi, if I can
take an indulgence just for a second, I want to
do a little memoriam for a moment. And there was
a rather extraordinary lady we lost, and this is a
personal indulgence, Pokes, but a lot of our listening audience

(38:30):
knew her for her many charitable and philanthropic events.

Speaker 3 (38:33):
Really amazing woman.

Speaker 2 (38:35):
Her name was Denise Philriy Shimmick, and she was known
for many years as one of the great violin prodigies
to come out of New Orleans. She studied with Suzuki
and Japan. She herself taught many of the great musicians
that come out of the city for many years. In fact,
when she comes back from Japan in nineteen seventy two.
She had to get really creative because that was still

(38:56):
kind of weird. You go to Japan to study violin
sineteen seventy two, it's not like that's that far from
the war, and people like this, And she said, and
Suzuki don't they make like cars motorcycles. So she in
order to encourage people to learn, she took her students,
she had a concert and she invited people to ride
Suzuki motorcycles there and it got it all through the newspapers,
which gives you kind of her marketing talents. She would

(39:18):
go on to form what was called the Velvet Sounds,
the Denise Philli Orchestra of the Velvet Sounds that not
only played every major philanthropic event from Overture to the
Cultural Season, to Cancer Crusaders to Arthritis Foundation, go through
everything that happened, but Denise was on the boards of
each of these organizations, so she was doing it. She

(39:40):
was a great marketer personally for music. I'll never forget.
In nineteen eighty four, when the movie Ghostbusters come out,
you know, she's one of the first people. She goes
a demo tape. She starts and ends it with who
you Gotta Call and playing the Ghostbusters theme. And yet
she was a classically trained violin who, at age fourteen
was the only person for fifty years that was a

(40:01):
was made to the Louisiana Strings Philharmonic twice two years
in a row and won the award.

Speaker 3 (40:07):
Folks, classical music is critical. It is the highest and
the highest, you know, the greatest form of music known
to man. Really, you know that most many of the
great rock stars they began their careers, it's classical performers.
That's how they studied and learned music that go on
and go into rock and all that. And another interesting thing,
Western culture is the only culture that has harmony. All

(40:28):
the other types of culture around the world, the Orientals
and Africans whatever, they don't have harmony. And because of that,
that has introduced harmony to the world, and it's made
classical music one of the most beloved forms of music.
Hence in Japan they love classical music. In fact, they
say every non Western country has a great classical orchestra,

(40:49):
and you know, all the things of classical music. It's
really interesting, it's very important. She was a master of
it technically, what you said is right. What it means
is other cultures didn't have the cordinance scale. They were disconcordant.
They had harmony, but it's a little bit different. They
mainly had melody and rhythm, sometimes more melody than rhythm,
or more rhythm than melody.

Speaker 2 (41:06):
That's another debate, but honestly.

Speaker 3 (41:07):
But it's not bad. That's just where their music was.

Speaker 2 (41:10):
The point is, Denise Hillary Shimick became one of the
movers and shakers of the arts community here. My favorite,
one of my favorite stories that I read about in
her obituary was the opera guild House in the Garden
District was falling apart and most people would raised try
to raise money get their friends to help work it.
She ended up being Tom Sawyer. She she Ivonko and

(41:31):
my mother Lulu Villary Tidmore ended up convincing people to
pay for the right to work on the house. It was,
I mean, it was. It was one of those having
so much fun white washing this fence is so it's great.

Speaker 3 (41:45):
What's her name? Tom? Soare?

Speaker 2 (41:47):
I actually considered that. Denise Hillary Shimick died after a
long illness last this past Thursday. Ladies and gentlemen. She
was seventy four years old, and a fund has been
created called the Denise Villary Fund for Women Artists of
the New Orleans Opera Sociation. You can make contributions at
New Orleans Opera dot org and ladies and gentlemen, you
can also call me five oh four three nine zero

(42:09):
four five seven nine. That's my cell phone. So anybody
wants five O four three nine zero four five seven
nine if you want to help support musicians, it's the
fund goes to help musicians themselves. It doesn't go for operations.
So please do this all in the nation of one
of our great musical talents, teachers and mentors, Denise Philriy Shimick.

Speaker 3 (42:28):
And a great business person and a great friend, a
remarkable one, raised a great family and by the way,
this is Christopher's ant and.

Speaker 2 (42:37):
My godmother as a matter of fact. But also she
touched so many lives that trust me, I'm not alone
when I say this, Folks, we got to take a she.

Speaker 3 (42:46):
Was, folks, a musical constellation shining brightly in the skies
of the world. They did say.

Speaker 2 (42:53):
When she entered a world room. One of her friends said,
she did make it sparkle. So on that note, folks,
we got to take a quick commercial break. We'll come
back with it patriotic moment after these important messions, stay
tuned more of the Foundering Show right after this. Speaking
about opera and political intrigue, the opera Tosca is appearing
September twenty seventh and twenty ninth of the Mahai Jackson Theory.
This is a great opera for the listeners of this show.

(43:15):
This is about political intrigue. This is about betreal, This
is about Napoleon's troops being on the horizon. This is
a Rome during the post French Revolution. It is an
incredible story and you if you want to love opera,
this is the one to go to. It's a massive
four hundred thousand dollars production. But you know what, if
you don't love opera, it's still the one to go this.
It is an incredible date night opportunity. For more information,

(43:35):
ladies and gentlemen, go to New Orleans Opera dot org
or give them a call. Five oh four five to
nine three thousand. That's five oh four five two nine
three thousand for the box office the New Orleans Opera
And thank you so very much.

are the action steps we at the New Orleans Mission
take to make a positive impact act on the homeless
problem facing the greater New Orleans area.

Speaker 2 (44:29):
Got os.

Speaker 3 (44:32):
Two shoes. Well, folks were back in this CHAPLAINI McHenry
the voice of the Founding Fathers. You're chaplain by by
the Republic and our founders show the voice of the
Founding Fathers. It is now time for us to go
on to our chaplain. Bye. By patriotic moment, we just
take a brief moment to remind you of the biblical
foundations of our country, our Judeo Christian jurisprudence, and today

(44:55):
we're going to talk about none other than old President Reagan.
Ronald Reagan, who is in office from nineteen eighty to
eighty eight, and at the beginning of his term in
nineteen eighty, He said, this the time has come to
turn to God to reassert our trust in him the
healing of America. Our country is in need of and

(45:17):
ready for, a spiritual renewal. That's how he opened his presidency,
and then eight years later, at the end of his
presidency he said many things. Time does not allow all
the things Reagan have said. In referencing his love for
God and his faith in God and the need for
God to govern our country, he said, there are times
when I'm in church, I think God might recognize the

(45:41):
magnitude of my responsibility and give me an extra portion
of his grace, and I don't feel guilty for feeling
that way. Well, folks, you know you don't have to
feel guilty about believing in Jesus and coming to know Him.
And for as far as the spiritual renewal goes, you
can talk about a spiritual renewal for the country, but
what about your own personal spirit to renewal? You know,
you could be the greatest patriot that ever lived, and

(46:03):
a biblical patriot, and then die and still go to
Hell because you never really knew God. You just knew
about him and he thought he was great. But you
didn't really believe in what you need to know to
know that you're going to heaven. That's called the Gospel.
So it is not time for us to go into
our pa our gospel moment. Where again I just take
a short time to explain the simple childlike message of

(46:26):
the Gospel. It is for children, the scriptur says, and
lets you come as a little child, you shall know
wives enter round. You need the faith of a little
child for this. It's all about faith. It's all about
the information, the knowledge of it, and then the trust
in it. You can say, well, I believe the Gospel
is great for my brother, my sister, my parents, whatever,
my best friend, that's great. The thing is you can't.
They can't. You can't do it for them. That each

(46:48):
person has to do it for themselves. God has no grandchildren,
He has no children. He only has I'm sorry, he
has no grandchildren. In the words, your parents may have
been the greatest Christians ever lived. That won't get you in.
You got to be a direct child of God and
you get it this way. The scripture says, believe on
the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved. What

(47:10):
does that mean? Believe I mean, we believe all kinds
of stuff. Right, Your faith, your belief is a two
sided coin. Think of it that way. On one side,
it's believing you can't save yourself. That's called repentance. That's
why Jesus kept saying repent and believe, repent and believe.
He was saying, believe you can't save yourself. That's what
it means. Change your mind, change your mind about what

(47:31):
believing that you are not going to ever be good enough,
smart enough, righteous, no religiouship. You're never gonna be able
to do enough good stuff that's ever going to be
good enough for God because of all says, all the
good stuff we can do, all of our righteousness are
as filthy rags. So just quit, give up on it,
stop trying to help God out. Only Jesus could be
on the cross and die for our sins and rights,
and none of us could do that. And that's what

(47:52):
gets itsin. So now you just heard the secret, the
secret of the gospel, and that is in First Queen's thirteen.
I'm sorry, First Queen, it is fifteen, For I declare
to you the gospel that Jesus died for all of
our sins. According to the scripture that he was buried
and that he rose from the dead according to the scripture, folks,
that is the gospel, and that's what you gotta believe,

(48:13):
that Jesus really did die for all your sins and
rose from the dead. But before you do that, you
gotta believe you can't help him out. In the moment
you do, you void the contract. He's got a contract
laid down in front of us. He's already signed it.
It's signed in his blood. It's called a covenant testament.
We also call it a contract. It's signing his blood,
and he's just waiting for you to sign it with

(48:34):
your childlike faith, by believing that he really did die
for your sins and rose to the dead. If you've
never done that before, do it now. Don't wait till
it's too late, folks. Like the old country preacher said,
and like the Word of God says, now today is
the day of salvation. We've been saved by grace. That
means free gift. Nothing you can do for it. It's
a gift. We've been saved by grace to faith. And
even that is not of ourselves. It is a gift

(48:56):
of God, not of works. Less to any man should boast. Folks,
take it as a free gift. It's your good works
will never get you in, so just give it up.
You know, you can turn from your sands. You can
do all kinds of good stuff. You can walk the aisle,
you can get baptized, you can say special prayers. You know,
you can do a holy communion. There are so many
good things to do, but none of that is still

(49:18):
going to be good enough for God. There's only one thing,
his work on the cross, nothing to do with your work.
It's all about his work because he's the only who
could do it. He's God. Jesus is God who became
a man. Believe right now that he really is your savior,
that he really did die for all your sins, was
buried in rosemand dead. And then split second you do it,
You've just become a child of God. You are born

(49:39):
and into his kingdom. You are born again. That Jesus said,
it's also called the new birth. If you don't get
the new birth, you're going to get the second death.
You'll never see that if you're born again. The second
death is when you get cast into hell forever. Don't
go there, folks, You don't want that. You don't want Hell,
it's too terrible for me to even try to explain
it to you. Don't ever even lightly think, oh, well

(50:00):
it'll be okay. I No, you won't. It's it's and
it never ends. You can't get out. You don't get
a second You get lots of second chance, maybe a
thousand on this earth because God the script is long suffering,
not one that any should perish, but that all should
come to repentance believing that He did die for their
sins and rows of the dead. Folks, if you've never
done that before, again, do it now? Well, folks. Now also,

(50:21):
it's time to talk about things that are happening right
now in our world. And I'm talking about in times
because it's now time for our chaplain by a watchmen
on the wall, where I'm just gonna go over a
few things that are happening. I do this the most
weeks and every other week actually, and then on the
other week, the nine weeks for the I give you
a test one of a story about somebody's life, what
they did and the impact it had on so many people.

(50:42):
Like mother to Reeves or whatever.

Speaker 4 (50:43):
Uh.

Speaker 3 (50:45):
Mother Cabrini sat Cabrini, you know, uh, and so many
others Hudson Taylor, Uh, so many of them, Benajo, Harvey Kalff.
I mean there's a bunch. Look, I have an endless
supply of amazing stories about amazing Christians from every denomination. Well, folks,
today we're going to talk about the chaos and confusion

(51:05):
that is going to come to this earth. You know,
the four horsemen of the Apocalypse are raging around the
world when the end gets here in the last seven years,
it's called the tribulation period, and it's going to be bad.
At the end of that comes the wrath of God,
and you don't want to be there for that. All
true Christians will be taken out before that is called
the rapture. But until then things and they don't get
bad overnight. It progressively gets there. Jesus said, it's like

(51:28):
labor pains. In that progressive the little cramp thirty minutes
later in the little cramp, next thing, you know, hours
so later, the woman's screaming her head off, and they
come in every ten seconds or something. It's very bad. Well,
that's how the end is going to come to this planet.
It's Jesus going to be like a woman in childbirth.
So what are we going to talk about all the
bad things that we have. Well, right now there's a

(51:48):
thing on the horizon. It's called cyber war, and it's
happening all around the world. Right now, they're like over
a thousand attacks every day of all every kind of
group you can think of. All the nations are attacking
one another. It's terrible. Well, there's just been a reason
one that took out much of what Iran had uh,
and it was necessary for their their functioning folks. Uh.
The US military right now is on a heightened alert

(52:12):
for a major cyber attack that they believe is planned
soon on this I mean like within days. And if
it succeeds successful, you could forget going to the grocery store.
You can forget your credit card, you can forget your lights,
you can forget everything that makes life possible in a
modern society, because it's all going to quit. And then,
folks wait for Katrina to happen at every major city,

(52:33):
a small town in the country, in this entire United States.
It's going to be the worst nightmare. Maybe half the
people will die within it. Within a couple of months,
We're right on the verge of that happening in this
country right now. It just happened in Iran, but it
happened with all their their banking and credit systems. But
that you can't function without that. So, folks, no one

(52:54):
could have imagined this one hundred years ago, one thousand
years much less two years ago and beyond. When all
these prophets were made, there were two hundred prophetcis that
Jesus is coming back, only one hundred for his first time,
over two hundred for his second coming. I think that
means it's important, and the folks are all happening. So
if you're not ready, you're gonna be in big time trouble.

(53:15):
Get ready. You need a bunker, You need a plan,
You need a safe house. And the best plan I
can ever give you, the best safe house bunker I
can ever describe, is the Lord Jesus Christ. Go to
him right now. Believe that he died for all your sins,
was buried and rose to dead. God guarantees you protection.
He guarantees you ever lasting life. Well's not time for
us to go. As the close of the mont, Saint
Martin singing a creole goodbye and God bless all out there.

Speaker 2 (53:44):
They call you wel goodbye.

Speaker 3 (53:49):
They think we just waste our time.

Speaker 1 (53:56):
All three save
